1st string looked very good; I'll keep my mouth shut and enjoy the season. Looked at the schedule again, not a game on there that we should expect to lose.

I agree that there's not a game we should expect to lose. The team will however lose some games.It happens.

The fact that we have a team though, that can go into any game, anywhere and we expect them to win has me all kinds of pumped.

Totally agree and I think any losses will only make this team better.

That may be true, but in regular games away from home is a different story.

All I know is week 2 with San Fran coming in the clink is going to be insane. I am happy the hawks start there season on the road, the players will be pumped and ready. Only problem they might run into is with the yellow flags, cause there to physical.

If we lose to the Colts, I will be livid. That's the one game I will literally not be able to stomach losing. I'll be very upset at any other games we lose, but that one....ugh.


I think the Colts are going to take a big step back this year. Luck is the real deal, but they had statistically the easiest schedule in like the past 20 years last year. This year they have to play the NFC West (3-4 losses), and AFC West (2 losses). Sure they still get to play the Titans and Jags twice a year, but I have them at 8-8 or 9-7.

Confidence is that feeling you have before you understand the situation.

I agree with this, which is why I'll be mortified if we become a +1 in the W column for them.

We'll see. I think we match up very well against finesse teams like the Colts (just ask Brady and the Pats). Luck isn't going to be able to throw for 500 yards against our DB's, and they have zero run game.

The only teams I see us having problems against are unfortunately all three of the teams in our division. Teams that can match us physically on defense, and have the capability to grind out the clock with short possession passes and the run game.

I''m with you peaches, I want to run over the colts and their idiot QB roughshod. If there was ever another game I'd like to win 50-0 this would be it.

:evil:

I agree. The Colt's defense is also crap. We're going to be able to run on them, so I think Luck's chances will be limited and I see us winning the TOP battle by a wide margin in that game.

I also don't get why so many people are pencilling us in with a L against the Giants. They aren't a dominating home team, and they already have a ton of injuries and a weak secondary. I think their DL will probably own our OL, but Wilson can buy himself time, if our WR's even need it to get open.

Houston fits that description fairly well.

All I'm really worried about is the juggernaut that is the NFC West, and possibly having to go through Atlanta at their place in the playoffs because of it. That will be extremelely tough, but doable, since we know what to expect going in.

If we lose to the Colts, I will be very disappointed. That team is not very good.

The Colts? They are primed for regression if any team is this season. I think that game will be like Buffalo, they'll score a few but Seattle will figure them out in the second half and keep scoring.

Toughest games for me will be Saints, Texans, maybe the Falcons (not sold on them this season), Green Bay in the playoffs and Denver, the Texans, or Cincy in the Superb Owl.

Atlanta will have more talent in that division. The Saints will probably be much better and Tampa looks legit. Even the Panthers can generate a few extra wins....after week 1.

All teams will be talking smack, well except Oakland maybe, it's the first game. Now after a 3 hour therapy session with Russell Wilson they will grasp reality and go properly back to their place as a worshipper of his greatness.
