Finally... After eight grueling months of football-less life, the NFL is finally ready to start today. I finally have a reason to wake up in the morning and get dressed before 3 PM. The season starts with a rematch of the NFC Championship game from last year. Vikings vs Saints. I think I speak for the majority of us when I say I hope Brett Favre gets injured and then we have a close fun game to watch. If you are a Brett Favre fan you will hate any reference to him on my blog so you may want to leave. As you may or may not know, I'm a huuuuuuuge Patriots fan and they start things off this Sunday against the Bengals. Everyone has agreed that the Pat's offense should be fine. Brady is on his second year back from reconstructive knee surgery and some how the freak of a person Wes Welker is back from a blown out knee nine months later. We've also added two play making tightends in Gronkowski and Hernandes. But our defense, particularly are secondary, looks weak. Well what better team to test this against than the Bengals, whose big offseason acquisition was Terrel Owens. Combine him with Chad Ochocinco on the opposite side and Carson Palmer distributing the rock and it could be the making of a potent offense (as long as T.O. doesn't bash Palmer on public radio or shoot a gun in the air for a touchdown celebration). It should give our young secondary some good experience going against a crew of veteran receivers.
