stopping in to say GO NINERS!

Haven't posted since around the draft due to NBA + Olympics + election stuff, but I haven't gone anywhere (I declared my allegiance here before last season!)

Not buying Alex Smith, still, but I hope I'm wrong. I'll probably start posting a bit again now that the season is upon us.

Nice OP as usual.

Edit: Is there a GAF Pick'Em league(s) like last season? If so, may I have the links?

 

[chuckddd]

Ok, walk away from the photoshop. Great work. My favorite is Princess Cutler.

Amazing OP.

 

[Sloane]

Nice OP. No Yahoo pick'em / survival this year?

 

[Sviatoslav]

First time NFL GAF thread poster.

Started watching SNF here in the UK couple of years back, but never enjoyed a whole season. Will probably be using GamePass this year to see the majority of the games.

Don't have a team yet, just enjoying the sport

This is a thread worthy of the OT. Amazing. The NFC South and NFC West description were hilarious.
Where is the AFC North and South?

Welcome you're in for a treat with this sport.


Speaking of the UK, whats the international game this year? Who got cheated out of a home game?

Thanks!

I think its Pats @ Rams, because there was an agreement that the Rams were coming to London for a few years in a row, but I think that got scrapped, and instead the Jags will be the 'home' team for a few years.

[Major_Lazer]

New season baby!!! Excellent OP, NFC West will be good this year I can feel it!!! Except the Rams coz fuck the Rams.

Go Cards, let's do this Kolb if we beat Seattle week 1 then it's playoffs!!! If he gets sacked 6 times and throws 2 picks then it's time to tank and go for 0-16!!!

 

[Hunter S.]

Easily can tell bucket head knows the NFC way more. Nice though. Finally, the thread will be worth posting in soon.

[Brinbe]

Fantastic job with the OP, Buckethead.

SEPTEMBER 5
DAL at NYG - Should be a good, close game like it always is in when NFCE foes collide.

SEPTEMBER 9
IND at CHI - Will be the first of many losses for Luck in his early career as a Colt.
ATL at KC - A cautionary pick... KC always seems to steal away their home-openers with that great crowd backing them.
PHI at CLE - Well, it's the obvious pick... but I'm sure we'll find someway to fuck this up.
WAS at NO - Brees in the dome, almost unstoppable.
STL at DET - Blah, boring pick but the Rams aren't that good yet.
NE at TEN - Anyone (even Titan fans) expect any different?
JAC at MIN - A week-one shitfest of a match-up... No MJD, no chance.
BUF at NYJ - Well, I needed an upset in here somewhere. Why not.
MIA at HOU - The Dolphins will be assuredly be contending for that top pick.
SEA at ARI - Wilson is legit. The Cards don't have a starting QB.
SF at GB - Should be GOTW, and going with the home team to take it.
CAR at TB - Cam Cam Cam Cam Cam
PIT at DEN - I believe in Peyton. The old and injury-ravaged Steelers will get exposed this season.

SEPTEMBER 10
CIN at BAL - Ravens probably win this AFCN match-up, should be a good one.
SD at OAK - lol @ the thought of picking the early-season Chargers to win.

Gamepass is great, I end up watching practically every game over the course of the week. SNF is back on C4 and in HD, but we still don't know if Sky/ESPN are going to pick up the rest :/

 

[Milchjon]

Yer a wizard, bucket!

But why is Rex Ryan in the NFC East?

 

[yankeehater]

This is the best OP ever well done Bucket.

 

[Talon]

What in the mothershit?

DAL at NYG - Romo will be laying on his back this game.

Sunday, September 9th:
IND at CHI - JCut against Indy's secondary leads to the Chicago Tribune shitting itself in Super Bowl hype for a week.
ATL at KC - A deep secondary against Matt Cassel? Child please.
PHI at CLE - A geriatric is the quarterback at Cleveland, and he still has nobody to throw to.
WAS at NO - Drew Breeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees picks up where he left off.
STL at DET - Who's going to cover Megatron in St. Louis?
NE at TEN - So. Many. Tight Ends.
JAC at MIN - A toss up in the truest sense.
BUF at NYJ - The Jets' secret offense falls flat.
MIA at HOU - Have you seen Miami's skill position players?
SEA at ARI - Have you seen Arizona's offensive line?
SF at GB - Best game of the week, and the Packers defense enjoys Alex Smith for a short time.
CAR at TB - Tampon Bay's defense will pick up where it left off last season.
PIT at DEN - Big Ben won't be happy in the fittest city in America.

Monday Night Football, September 10th:
CIN at BAL - The Brow > The Ginger - though the Ravens will sorely miss Suggs.
SD at OAK - Rivers and Gates reacquaint themselves with the league.

I bet all on the niners for this week. It's time for them to show the REAL progress. It's time for them to deny all the bad pronostics. It's time for them to give us the REAL hope. Goooo NINERS!!!!

I am sure they can give a great game against the Packers.

Wonder which game the replacement refs will ruin, a few of them looked like they were shitting themselves during the pre season games I can't fathom to think what could happen when the real shit starts.

Is DM making a yahoo pick em or what?

 

[789shadow]

Excuse me.

But you actually need to link to Pick'Em. Fail OP for that.

 

[squicken]

Something I think that gets too much play is the Saints suffering b/c of all the upheaval. Payton is definitely a good coach, and they will miss him. But if Peyton Manning can drag Jim Caldwell's awful ass to 14-2, I think Brees can manage 10-6 with the rotating door they'll have going there

I think the players they lost will hurt them more then the coaches being out.

You fail for being a whiny dooooooooosh and not appreciating the greatness that is the OP. You should feel privilege for being part of something so great. You're basically the Rapist his rookie year. Despite adding almost nothing to the thread we let you participate and join in our glory.
