NFL: Week 1 - "We're back baby!"

No thread yet, I figure there needs to be one.

The Packers are taking the Saints out behind the woodshed right now. The Saints have a 8 year old playing corner, Rodgers is still awesome and the Packers are actually healthy for at least a quarter. The Packers defense for all it’s hype hasn’t really done much to stop the Saints either, we’re still puntless after 6 possessions.

Oh, and this kickoff rule is fucking stupid.

The Packers special teams are still “special”.

Bring in the short bus.

Entertaining first half.

Darren Sproles was a great pickup for the Saints. I always liked him. Too bad he can’t play CB.

This is the kind of game that the NFL should schedule for the annual London game. Maybe then the British could maybe understand why Americans love their football so much. Maybe. Rodgers and Brees are pass completing cyborgs.

And how about another middle finger to the NFL for moving up kickoffs to the 35. Ugh.

Missed most of the first half due to prior commitments, but I check my phone and it’s 28-17. Damn, that’s a nice score to see. Got to watch the last couple minutes of the half and it’s looking good. Aaron Rodgers is screwing me six ways to Sunday in fantasy, but, you know what, I don’t care. I hope to get to watch the first half manana, so I can’t really offer any insight other than the special teams unit, which made some strides last year, looks to be problematic again.

Still a whole 'nother half to play. Go Pack!!

More touchbacks in the first half (or was it quarter?) than there were all last year at Lambeau.

Fucking boring. I’m actually looking forward to punts now.

Kind of a shit game. Neither team can play defense.

Michelle Tafoya is right, the Saints need to start generating some pass rush.

Almost seems like a game designed to hook people on fantasy football.

I heart Randall Cobb.

I gotta side with the bitter vikes fan on this one… their not fooling me… this is bad football… the fucking 120 yard kickoff return confirms it…

Nice to see you Dio. Gonna be another long fucking year for you. I can’t wait.

That run defense of of yours must be making Adrian Peterson’s dick hard.

That special teams coverage has been awesome too. Devin Hester is going to pad some more records this year.

Stay classy, Darren Woodson.

Anytime Dio posts three times in a row so quickly, I know I’m going to be happy.

No zebra complaints yet.

It’s the first game in the season. He’s still not in football shape yet.

Well they did change the rules for Woodson.

Did Green Bay forget how to play pass defense on this last drive? For those of us not in front of a TV, what is going on?

Whether they hold up here or not, the Packers need to be concerned about their defense. Brees has gone through it like shit through a goose all night.
