NFL General Discussion Thread.

It's Lynch's first substance abuse policy.

Also this is why he probably shouldn't get suspended/for that long: http://blog.thenewstribune.com/seahawks/2012/07/26/lynch-pleads-not-guilty-to-dui-charge/

Ah oh well. I guess we'll see what happens when The Commish gets around to it.

We'll see. Goodell is quite busy with the the whole Saints Bounty.

Mike: I have no idea. I've like the Dolphins since I was a child. Marino was still the QB at that time. I'm also a huge Iowa Hawkeyes fan.

I really hope the Chiefs starts Ricky Stanzi by the end of the season. I truly think that he is the next Brady. Have you guys seen how similar Brady and Stanzi were when they came out of college?

I think I ended up with Stanzi in my Madden 12 franchise, he turned into an absolute beast haha. I always root for the Chiefs a bit, not sure why. They're turning into a good team.

They have everything to win a Super Bowl... Except a QB (Since they don't start Stanzi).

They may have a good team, but the only thing is that they would have to actually play well.

And not have so many injuries. They lost Charles and Moiaki last year.

They also had one of the worst defenses in the league. Horrible, just horrible.

I know. They are also in a tough Division, so they will have to do pretty good to get into the Playoffs.

Eh, not really if you want to think last season. That division was really up for grabs for anyone. But they will need to play well this season depending on *sigh* how Peyton Manning does with the Broncos -_-

...And how good Carson Palmer and Phillip Rivers play this season.

Heh, Carson Palmer. Too priceless that was. I hope for an encore season from him.

I think the Raiders will be pretty good this year. They have a pretty good offense and a pretty good defense. I think they can go at least 8-8.

I'm hoping Rivers has another 20+ Interception season.

Haha maybe if he wasn't so angry and frustrated all the time, maybe he could throw touchdowns.

I never liked the Raiders, I see them having a bad season actually. Probably one of the worst teams this year. They didn't have a good offseason if I remember correctly, correct me if I'm wrong.

Carson did have some problems last year, but I think he'll be better this year. I was never a Raiders fan either.

I see my Dolphins being one of the worst team's this year, unless they start Matt Moore.

Oh man, the Dolphins. I wonder if they will have that 1-15 season again, or worse. I don't even know any big name players on that team. Isn't Reggie Bush with them?

Yes, he is. He had his first 1000 Yard rushing season. The Dolphins also now have Chad Ochocinco.

I just hope they aren't the worst team this year.

Ah yes, I remember now. I want to see a good fight from all the teams in the AFC East. The Patriots are always good, the Bills have a lot of potential, and the Jets are the talk lately due to Tebow/Sanchez. Let's hope the Dolphins can throw themselves into the mix.

I'm still curious about how the Lions and Saints will do with all the arrests/dismissals and the bounty scandal.

Since the Saints signed Brees, I think they will still be a playoff contender.

The Lions better be good this year. They did draft Reiff out of Iowa.

Yeah, along with losing about 20 3-5 players because they love the law. Who knows what will happen DURING the season, injuries and other arrests, who knows. Suh better be a good boy.

And the Saints will be fine, hopefully they can fill the void their defense has lost.
