**OFFICIAL 2015 NFL SEASON THREAD**

Who will be the Quarterback for the Jets? ;)

Ryan Fitzpatrick, an upgrade if he can limit his picks to times when the game is not on the line. He's not afraid of getting intercepted when he throws, which can be a good thing sometimes.

OMAHA! It will be interesting to see what happens with Denver this year. Payton doesn't have too many years left to play and bringing a new coaching staff can set a team back two or three years (to get back to where they were with the last coach- if they do). Probably still win the Division but not sure at this point how far they may get in the playoffs (not expecting a Super Bowl victory but hopefull!)

For those into the New Stadium Conspiracies (teams with or about to get a new stadium get help from the refs and have a good year), the Chargers and Raiders bear watching. I don't see the Chargers moving to the LA area (one proposal is a joint stadium in Carson shared with the Raiders). People up there don't like the Chargers so their fan base would be smaller even though it is a bigger television market. The team owners have not said or done much- letting pressure build on the local government to make them a "deal they can't refuse". Latest numbers have local government (city and county taxpayers) picking up about a third of the $billion plus it will cost.

The vote on the taxpayer largesse for SD's stadium isn't until January. The trend shows only teams with big taxpayer money deals signed BEFORE the season get the breaks. I could easily see CIN replacing DEN this coming season as a playoff team. Wouldn't it be a shame if Peyton's neck started hurting again? ;)

And to the owners, it's just business as usual. It's only a 'conspiracy' to the little people.
 
Geez dude, do I have to do everything for you? It's Peyton. ;)

It's always funny watching Zippy post on the NFL threads. Did you see in last season's thread where Zippy thought two AFC teams would play each other in the Super Bowl? lol

The Chiefs have been working on their offensive line and their receiving corps.

Care to bet on dem Broncos of yours and that AFC West title? Because I think anyone could get it but the Raiders.

That was the previous poster on the Zippy Account. He didn't know from Rugby. He thought offsides in football meant you knocked it into the goalie's face with your forehead.

They're getting better at consistency, though. At least they told this one to be a Broncos fan.

Educated guess that the Zippy account is a GCHQ handle, therefore a Brit.

Your post does remind me that if DEN doesn't win the west then someone else has to. Could be SD after all. Their stadium drama has been in the news cycle a good bit lately.

Houston-Hali, baby. They will shut you down.

With those two, you don't need a whole lot of offense, because your competition sure ain't making theirs work. I still think they're the best linebacker team since Singletary-Dent.

And the original Zippy didn't even put a whole lot of labour into disguising that it was one of The Queens Own who was splashing a bit of petrol on the fyre.

Now if we could only consume their product. I'm not paying $99 to watch preseason. I'm not paying $350 + subscribing to DTV to watch my Vikings. Guess I'll be doing the whole firstrow.eu method combined with torrents.

No, but it's not a good idea to misspell the first name of one of the most beloved players every to wear the power T.
 
Steve McNair is still considered a hero in Nashville; he did not have much of a life after football, what messed up life he did have finally caught up to him.

He enjoyed a very protective Nashville media. It was not a secret that McNair was a philanderer. Felt sorry for his wife and boys, though. I think they've all moved away now.

Nashville protects its icons. The scandals come out other places, but not here.

Both his cousin and his nephew played for UT Martin a few years ago. Cousin on defense, his nephew was a running back. I don't think either of them got drafted into the NFL, one of them also played baseball.
