That is must see TV...I hope Detroit smokes em, but I'll settle for a Kittie win.
What an opening weekend, ending on MNF!

Definitely must-see TV, but it sucks that the two games we all want to watch the most are the last two games of week one. On a related note, the NFL started Thursday night openers in 2002. In 24 seasons, the Vikings have never once played in a Thursday opener.

Well, if they win a Lombardi one of these decades....

Agreed. Super stoked for my NFL Sunday routine! Swedish meatballs, hot wings with blue cheese and nursing Miller Lites a good portion of the day. It all starts with coffee and Baileys at an hour much too early for a weekend day. Viking flag ready and waiting. Shit weather weekend forecast so no pool time before kickoff, but I'll survive.

Thats a good routine!
It's been hot, muggy and smoky here all summer. Canadian wildfires are getting worse, not better. I personally hate it.
But you know what happened the last 3 days? Mother nature blew in some cold air (left the smoke out) and it feels like football now.
Was 45 degrees in the back yard this morning with a good, stiff breeze. My Labrador approved.

September 9th 2010, lost 14-9 at New Orleans.
We've also had one Saturday night opener and 7 MNF openers including this weekend. 7 of the 9 games on the road, 3 wins 5 losses pending this Monday. All games versus NFC opponents.

Where pattersaur Was Wrong:
Whoops. If the hype around Green Bay was unearned before, it's officially earned now. They dominated Detroit. The offense looked ok/good but the defense looked like a force. Detroit couldn't run the ball, couldn't get the quick passing game going consistently, and didn't have time for deep passes. They were totally shut down and I gotta tip my cap to the Packers. But, it's just one game. We'll see what the Vikings and Bears can do tonight.

Packer fans hold on to your “Packer Pacifier” it was only 1 game!
