Thread: Football

Anyone here really into american football?? If so, what team do you root for? Me, I'm a die hard Broncos fan, although that game on sunday night was a real hard to watch. Fumble on the half-yard line, field goal taken away from us on a non-penalty, game winning interception going right through the hands of a defender, and it still took a 50+ yard field goal at the last second to beat us! Oh well....

Aints no longer, Go Saints Go. They are the underated team in the NFL, and they have the most underrated QB:

Aaron Books, who has an awsome arm and is an incredible scrambler. There is a reason that they are insanely good at 3rd downs (like 60+%), it's because Brooks can "frozen rope" it right into the hand of Joe Horn.

And they have the most underrated running back, Duce McAlister. Go Duce Go.


We will win our second playoff game ever this year!

Go Lions! (hey, at least I'm not a fair weather fan )

They made your beloved Saints look like, well, the Lions

Yeah, but will they win a second or a third playoff game this year as well? With the Eagles and the Bucs, me thinks no!

They already beat the bucs once 26-20...not to mention Greenbay and Pittsburgh...

Bah that was after a hurricane hit NO in the middle of the week, we're a heart team and it's hard to concetrate, practice, and have heart when you're busy boarding up your house and worrying about your family. That's the excuse and I'm sticking with it!

But it's the Lions, for pete's sake! You should be able to beat them with a squad of blind girl scouts!

> I wish we had american football in our country!!!

As well you should. It's like the best sport in your country, only way better.

I agree they beat the bucs already, BUT it was their first game under their new coach, and it still took overtime to take 'em. Tampa Bay is a much better team now and will be unstoppable at the end of the season

Bah, the Saints will beat them again, I didn't see the game (except for OT) but I'm sure the Sain'ts will crush them...I mean come on, they lost on a blocked punt! That shouldn't happen in pro ball.

that is until Denver beats them in the Super Bowl

- no reply needed.

Here are my predictions for the playoff seedings:

AFC
1) Raiders
2) Dolphins
3) Steelers
4) Colts
5) Broncos
6) Patriots (Chargers will probably get it though)

NFC
1) Bucs
2) Eagles
3) Packers
4) 49ers
5) Saints
6) Bears

I'm more into college football than anything.........if I had to chose a team? The dolphins (KIDDING! KIDDING!)

I didn't really care for any sports at all before I got into college (except maybe tennis). I went to Virginia Tech and now I look forward to watching those football games and seeing how well they do (currently #3 on the AP poll). I also have a bit more respect for pro football as well and watch an occasional game.
