Let the fun begin tonight, especially with Batman's inaccurate and ridiculous predictions!!

COLT POWER!

Its only exhibition, so it should be a couple of months before any meaningful predictions, but here's a minor one to start it off.

The Giants will lose the Hall of Fame Game tonight. They always stink in practice. Maybe Strahan will pitch in, he looks better than some of their players.

Yay Go Dolphins.

Thankfully, that prediction didn't come to pass (no pun intended).
I'm hoping the Giants will be better than last year. I hope, I hope, I hope.

Yes Mike, both my first prediction and my first wrong prediction.

But you have to admit that the Bills did nothing after the Giant touchdown, so it wasn't much of a game.

I like Eli, I too hope the Giants are a contender this year. And I hope the Jets do every bit as well as last year.

Johnny Manziel proves more and more what an immature boy he is! I just wish the Cowboys had drafted this train wreck!

Yay go Dolphins.

COLT POWER!

You are a brave man to make such early predictions Headless. With so many players on suspension for DWIs, PEDs, old fashion drugs, beaten up wives, bar brawls, road rage and kicked dogs , I think it will around week 6 before many teams get all their players (idiots) back. I have no idea who will do what in the early going or how much better some might get in November.

Your picks are as good as any, but Miami taking the AFC East? With apologies to wolfie, I'll believe that when I see it.

Mrs. Brady and Bill Bellacheat have never won since spy gate. Reevis is old and not the same player. They have average receivers at best, which is a problem.

Miami almost made the playoffs with Wolfie, me and the Batman playing the offensive Line last year.

Buffalo and the Jets have no offense.

I actually agree with everything you say and I really would like Miami to take the East, but I watched many of their games last year. They kept snatching defeat out of the jaws of victory over and over.

Until they can show that they can play four solid quarters without getting in their own way I can't pick 'em to take the division, even as mediocre as I expect the Patriots and the Jets to be, and don't even mention the Bills.

Miami got the better of the Patriots today alright. Brady and company either got too cocky or too old in the 2nd half, hard to tell which.

Same old stuff with the Jets. They win over lousy teams just because the teams are lousy, not because they are any good. Then Ryan crows.

Can't wait for that Thursday game, would like to see Steelers on track again. One game does not make a season, but they looked great.

Woooooooooo Dolphins beat the patsies.

even though we tried our best to throw the game away in the first half, the second half was great.

Bring on the Bills.

So much righteous indignation from the media, the owners, the NFL, the couches, the advertisers, the public. Most players are keeping quiet. Why is anyone surprised by all the bad behavior and negative publicity that came out this week, and will likely remain in the news until the playoffs? Its just the chickens coming home to roost.

The NFL has engaged in willful blindness for the last forever. Yes, it is a small percentage of players causing most of the trouble when compared to the whole, but the whole condones it. As long as they can play, as long as they can help the team win, as long as they don't get caught, it's all good. And when they get caught everyone else is shocked and dismayed. Yeah, right!

I enjoy watching football, but football is not the same game that it was. Players should never have been called role models, but a certain level of civilized behavior might be expected from multi-millionaire college graduates. And the hits have become so violent and the players can get hurt so bad on both legal and illegal plays, I'm beginning to wonder what it says about me that I still want to watch the games.

Yeah, now I remember why I still watch games, some great stuff this week so far.

In NY it's all Jets and Giants and they both lost. I really wish the Giants would get out of this sorry state. They don't have to win, just play a decent game.

That time out call from the Jets bench that cost them a touchdown will be the big topic on sports radio. They will probably blame the refs, but the defensive couch should not have been calling it.

Miami still can't get out of its own way and I don't think RG3 will ever have a complete season. He is just too fragile a quarterback.

Carolina is looking dangerous and I think might be up there at playoff time, but it is still too early too say.
