2007 NFL season opener

I figure it's a gimme.... but let's see what the cognoscenti has to say....

 

Saints-Colts. That way, there's no need to look for storylines. Just run with the obvious and rehash everything else.

 

Colts-Titans. Would make sense given Steelers-Dolphins last year and Patriots-Raiders the year before that. Super Bowl champs take on a non-playoff team with a marquee name, in this case, Vince Young.

Though that's a division game, so maybe I should have voted Colts-Saints.

 

Any of those three is possible.

But, I think with the classic nature of the AFC Championship, it's going to be the matchup most of the country wants.

I would love Titans though.

 

Raiders-Lions. That way, opening Sunday will seem that much better.

 

Why are the Texans listed!?!

 

Honestly, while there are more obvious games out there, Broncos-Colts might be an interesting one.

 

Just because the Colts should be a lock to host the opener.... so those are there eight home opponents.

 

Or you could have Colts-Bucs and Tony Dungy lording over the Bucs that he CAN win a SB!

 

Has to be Pats @ Colts, so we can have a Red Sox getting their rings in front of the Yankees moment.

Oh, and someone make sure Bill Simmons is forced to attend. What a f'ing wuss he was this week, not talking about the game until Friday. What a joke.

 

Yes, because the Pats have no rings to show for this decade. They would be so jealous.
