The NFL - Are you ready for some football?

After a 7 month investigation the NFL league has determined that Peyton Manning is cleared of any wrong doing regarding taking HGH/PED's. No evidence was found that Peyton ever took HGH/PED's. He cooperated from Day 1 with the league and didn't destroy any evidence unlike some cheater we know! Peyton's Legacy is intact, Tommy Boy's isn't!

The NFL Network picks the Colts to go 6-10. I guess the pressure is off I see 11-5 personally and I think those dudes are on drugs. We have Andrew and will at least win the Division. Watt is damaged goods and they have fucking Brock Oz at QB The Jags went 5-11 last season so they will be lucky to finish 8-8.

This season's Hall Of Fame class is really Great! Not just saying that because Marvin and Dungy got in but also Eddie DeBartolo Jr got in and Favre of course made it. Favre's speech should be entertaining.

I am glad the Hall of Fame Game got cancelled, Pre-Season is meaningless and why risk Andrew getting injured! Andrew on the other hand was furious that the game was cancelled. He was very perplexed when being interviewed why the game was cancelled. He wanted to play.

Looking at Cam's MVP season in 2015 compared to Luck's 2014 Season:
Cam - 35 Passing TD's/10 Rushing TD's = 45 total TD's, 10 INT's/4 Fumbles = 14 TO's, 3738 Yards Passing/636 Yards Rushing = 4374 total Yards. 15-1, Lost in the SB vs Denver.

Luck - 40 Passing TD's/3 Rushing TD's = 43 TD's, 16 INT's/4 Fumbles = 20 TO's, 4761 Yards Passing/273 Yards Rushing = 5034 total Yards. 11-5, Lost in AFC Title Game at New England.

-Not a huge difference actually considering Luck had nearly 7000 more total Yards which means he carried his team MUCH more. 7000 more Yards is mindboggling when you think about that stat! Luck also threw for 40 TD's, only 8 different QB's have done that in NFL history. Both players went deep in the Playoffs, Cam made it one step further but was terrible in the SB.

-I cant wait until Football starts! It's time for Indy to regain their dominance in the Division. I still take pride in my Colts knowing they have made 5 AFC Title Games since the 1995 Season, 2 SB's, and won a SB. The Colts basically average going to a Final 4 once every 4 seasons since 1995 and have done it with 3 different QB's in Harbaugh - 1995, Peyton - 2003/2006/2009, and Luck - 2014. Winning the SB is obviously the main goal which the Colts did in 2006 but just being relevant as a small market team for over 20 years has been great stuff! Unheard of actually. If any small market team was going to break the barrier in Basketball I thought it would be OKC regarding winning a Championship because they had Westbrook and Durant. They didn't even win a Championship. Colts got 1 in Football in little ol' Podunk!

Cavs aren't a small market, Ohio's population is almost 12 Million people. Illinois has around 13 Million people and Chicago is considered a big market for sports, only 1 more million than Ohio. Indiana has roughly only 6 Million people, Oklahoma has around 4 million - those 2 are the definition of small market! Cali has 39 million people in it so a team like the Queens isn't small market either. The myth that the Cavs are a small market team though is complete Bullshit, if your state has more than 11 million people in it that isn't small market. Small market is less than 7 Million IMO as that is small. I looked all of this up so it's accurate.

I am watching the Raiders at Cardinals and Raiders look sharp in their 1st Pre-Season game. Up 17-3 in the 1st Qtr! It's only Pre-Season but just happy Football is back. I have the Raiders making the Playoffs this season as a WildCard. I think 3 teams make the Playoffs in that Division actually. I have the Chiefs winning the Division, Raiders and Broncos as my WildCards. I have a feeling Bengals will be the odd team out this season IMO, Colts will overtake the Texans in the South as well so the Texans will be out. My other Division winners are Steelers, Patriots, and Colts. Those are my AFC predictions as of today, it could change as I have been flipflopping a little with a few teams but I have until opening day to put my final picks in concrete. In the NFC I have Packers, Cardinals, Cowboys, and Panthers as Division Champs, my 2 WildCards as of now are the Seahawks and Vikings. Redskins are out from last season, Cowboys back in with Romo healthy.

Your faith in Romo is perplexing

Your faith in Romo is perplexing

Cowboys were 12-4 2 years ago with him healthy. He could get injured again but if he doesn't they will win the NFC East. Eli and the Giants aren't what they used to be and Coughlin is now gone as well. It boils down to I have no faith in the Giants, Eagles, or Redskins being better than 8-8. Redskins were 9-7 last season and were one of the worst teams I have ever seen make the Playoffs. I don't see them winning more than 8 games. The Eagles are a joke too.

I know I am ready for some Football. The Cubs have really made my summer much better without Basketball and Football but I still cant wait for Football. Luck looked healthy last week completing 8-8 against the Ravens first string and TY Hilton didn't even play. This season should be really interesting with Brady's suspension the first 4 games, Bell is suspended for the Steelers the first 3 games, Watt has had back surgery and could miss the opener, Lynch is retired, Peyton is retired as well so the AFC West is wide open. Some of the best teams from last season may struggle a bit, especially early. I don't see the Panthers coming close to 15-1 either, I think Cam had his one career season and it wont be as easy for him from here on out. I look for teams like the Colts, Raiders, and Jets to be good and those teams missed the Playoffs last season. Jets probably wont make the Playoffs because they have to deal with the Patriots but it will be interesting in that Division if the Patriots start out something like 1-3 without Brady. I think in the NFC it's going to be the Packers season if Rodgers stays healthy, if they get HFA it's over. They are just due and he's the best QB in the League IMO.

Just some food for thought: When I think of things off the top of my head regarding Football.
*Greatest Pro Football team ever = 1989 49ers, went 14-2 and blew everyone out in the Playoffs including a 55-10 win over Elway's Broncos. That team had Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, Roger Craig, Ronnie Lott, and Charles Haley. They had the size on their O.Line play and D.Line and overall athletes at their skilled positions that can beat anyone today as well unlike a team like the 1972 Dolphins. That is another key here! Athletes in the mid to late 80's started to get bigger, stronger, and faster as a whole and really peaked out in the 90's. There still isn't a team today that has a bigger O.Line than what the 1995 Cowboys had for example. The late 80's to mid 90's 49ers teams and early 90's to mid 90's Cowboys teams are the 2 best teams I have ever seen.

*Greatest Small Market SB win for a team = 2006 Colts. Indiana had never won a Championship in the NBA or NFL until the Colts won in 2006. The Pacers have been a franchise in the NBA since 1977 and have 0 Championships. Colts have been a franchise in Indianapolis since 1984, their SB win in 2006 led by QB Peyton Manning proved even Podunkers can win a SB.

These names come to mind if asked on the spur of the moment
*Greatest QB ever - Joe Montana
*Greatest RB ever - Jim Brown
*Greatest WR ever - Jerry Rice
*Greatest TE ever - Shannon Sharpe
*Greatest O.Lineman ever - Anthony Munoz
*Greatest D.Lineman ever - Reggie White
*Greatest OLB ever - Lawrence Taylor
*Greatest MLB ever - Ray Lewis
*Greatest Corner ever - Deion Sanders
*Greatest Safety ever - Ronnie Lott
*Greatest Kicker ever - Adam Vinatieri
*Greatest Punter ever - Ray Guy
*Greatest HeadCoach ever - Vince Lombardi

*Best Franchise ever - Pittsburgh Steelers = 6 SB Titles. They have the most SB wins so I think they deserve that recognition. Their best team was 1978 IMO. I watched them live as a young kid.

-What's funny is, nothing New England Patriots is the best ever IMO as Great as they have been. Cheaters can hit the door as far as I am concerned. I think Montana is better than Tom Brady anyway so it is what it is. Lombardi is better than Bill Belichick so there you have it! The 2004 Patriots team is their best team ever but would lose if they played the 1989 49ers or the 1992 Cowboys IMO. The 2006 Colts took the Patriots out in the Championship Game and they had a lot of the same players from that 2004 team, difference was they played in Indy for a change. The 2007 Patriots = biggest choke team ever, go 18-0 and lose to Peyton's little brother when favored by 14 points! Thank God that happened, because everyone in the media would've said that was the best team ever, THANK YOU ELI!

Well Rev, your hero Tony Romo (sarcasm) is already out 6-10 weeks with a broken bone in his back. Man he couldn't even wait until the Regular Season to get injured??

[Lakers4Life]

No Raiders? How about greatest owner: Al Davis
