Sunday Night Football: Week 1: Steelers @ Patriot (-6) s on NBC 8:20 EST

[Fountain City Blues]

Patriots should take this one.

The return of real NFL football is less than a week away, comrades. Enjoy the Labor Day weekend. Early posting since we got a gap in terms of NFL ball.

i thought opening night was Thursday with Packers at Bears?

Big test for the defending champs right out of the gate. Steelers should be better despite losing talented guys. They showed last year that they could handle the pats who really only clicked offensively on one drive.

Home field gives the pats the nod here but IMO these are the two teams to beat in the AFC (sorry chiefs fans).

Yup... you’re right. This is the Sunday night game.

But I know you guys are all excited to watch “Do you Job III” airing on NFL network Wednesday night!

I flipped them around... yikes. Forgot about that shit. Guess the NFL wants the centennial to start with the Bears and Packers instead of the SB champs /shrugs

Patriots but I think the Steelers could end up being a bit of a sleeper this year so who knows, when NE stumbles they tend to do so early in the year.

Not nice to call Tomlin names

On paper it looks like a Pats W but if there's a time to play the Pats its in September. I'd lean Pats but it wouldnt stun me if Pittsburgh pulled it off.

ESPN That's how we roll in the Northeast

Steelers won the last time they played. Teams usually don't beat the Patriots twice in a row so I suspect that the Pats will probably win by 10-14 points.

This seems like a classic case of the Patriots will lose an early game and we will all proclaim their reign is over and that the Steelers are the team to beat in the AFC and 2 months from now the Pats will be 8-2 and the Steelers 4-6.

 

[LionsWhyMe]

I'm the only one that voted Steelers... I'm for the underdogs. I took the Lions all 16 weeks in '08, so don't underestimate the things I will do. I probably would've felt a little better if AB was still with the Steelers.

Damn! Hard to believe it’s finally here again. Bring it beotch!

 

[Judge Fudge]

Patriots.

No question about it.
