NFL Regular Season Week 1

Quite a few good games played today, theres quite a bit to talk about.

Manning vs. Manning

In the end Peyton Manning got the victory, but I thought Eli played really well. He has definately improved over his playing last year. He definately seemed more confident in the pocket than he did in previous games. Plexico Burress also made two amazing catches, one for a major and one just for a gain.

Seattle vs. Detroit

There isn't much to even say about this game except for, where was the Special Teams. It's not normal that you see let alone one blocked field goal, but a couple.

New England vs. Buffalo

Pretty close game even though at first glance it might look like a possible blowout. It was a pretty exciting game in my opinion, one that was decided with something as rare as a safety. I thought Brady played his usual good self, well except for the 1 int and two fumbles (1 recovered). I was quite surprised however with the Bills offence.

These are just a few games I remember, post what you thought about the Week 1 games.

All division games for me....

Dallas lost to the Jaguars, thank goodness (I thought Dallas would win). Drew Bledsoe threw 3 picks.:lol:

Giants lost to Indy, but that was expected.

and unfortunately, Philly beat Houston...but that was expected. Mcnabb looked great (Limbaugh said overrated, I think not).

Great games.

My Redskins play tonight against the Vikings.

Yeah I hear Clinton Portis is starting, which is surprising for me I thought he was out for longer.

He didn't start but he ended up playing a lot.

My Redskins lost 19 - 16...we lose by a late field goal and some late bullshit calls.:dry:

Damn Raiders cant fuckin stop Tomlinson. 100+ yards in a half. Hope fully when I wake up and check the score, the Raiders will have won. . .

I couldnt believe how well the Chargers Defensive Line played. I mean it's not often you see 9 sacks in a game for a total loss of 54 yards lol. Shawne Merriman played like a beast in this monday night game.
