The NFL Schedule was released this Wednesday, and there are plenty of games worth sitting in front of the TV for, or at least, if you cannot watch it live, to Tvio and watch later. The season starts Thursday September 6th as the Indianapolis Colts open the season at home against the New Orleans Saints.
WEEK 1
Indianapolis Colts vs New Orleans Saints
Drew Brees against Peyton Manning. Reggie Bush against Joseph Addai. Marques Colston against Marvin Harrison. Adam Vinateiri against Olindo Mare. A great game on many levels.
Sunday
That Sunday, the Chicago Bears have a rocky Road To Repetition as they lead off the season against the San Diego Chargers. The League's Best Offense against the League's best defense.
Sunday Night
Tony Romo leads the Dallas Cowboys against Eli Manning and the New York Giants in the first Sunday Night Football game of the year.
Monday Night
Ken Whisenhunt leads the "new" Arizona Cardinals against the San Francisco 49ers in an NFC West Rivalry Game.
WEEK 2
Panthers vs Texans: The David Carr Bowl: David Carr gets to watch from the sidelines as Matt Schaub gets dropped on his head by the fierce Carolina Pass Rush, and as Carolina slaughters the Houston Texans.
Sunday Night
San Diego vs New England: A rematch of the AFC Divisional Playoff game, where San Diego self destructed on their chance to face the Colts in the AFC Conhampionship Game.
WEEK 3
Indianapolis vs Houston: This AFC South rivalry heated up as David Carr was able to lead the Texans to an upset victory of the Indianapolis Colts on the last week of the regular season.
Sunday Night
Dallas at Chicago. This would be more intesesting if Thomas Jones was still on the Bears.
WEEK 4
Kansas City vs San Diego: Larry Johnson vs Ladanian Tomlinson. Two of the best pure runners in the NFL going at it.
Denver vs Indianapolis: Brandon Stokely caught Peyton Manning's record breaking Touchdown Pass, earned his second Super Bowl Ring (his first came with Baltimore) and went Mile High to Denver, where the Colts seem to always have Denver's number.
Sunday Night
Philadelphia vs New York Giants: Big NFC East rivalry continues. Eli Manning vs Donovan McNabb.
WEEK 5
Atlanta vs Tennesee: Mike Vick against Vince Young. Great game of two very mobile QB's.
Sunday Night
Chicago vs Green Bay: The biggest rivalry in the NFL takes place at "The Frozen Tundra."
WEEK 6
New England vs Dallas: Tom Brady vs Tony Romo. Terrell Owens vs Donte Stallworth. DeMarcus Ware vs. Adalius Thomas. Icing on the Cake: Carrie and Giselle. Forget the game. I would love to just see Carrie and Giselle.
WEEK 7
Tennesee vs. Houston: Matt Schaub vs Vince Young. Big AFC South game.
Minnesota vs. Dallas: Brad Johnson watches from the sideline as Dallas plays his old team.
WEEK 8
Pittsburgh vs Cincinnati: Always a big rivalry game for both teams.
WEEK 9
New England vs Indianapolis: This is the Super Bowl before the Super Bowl. Peyton Manning, finally getting a Super Bowl ring last season, will face the guy with three Super Bowl Rings, Tom Brady. New England is bloodthirsty for revenge. They know they would have won gone to the Super Bowl and have defeated the Bears if Tom Brady did not throw that interception late in the game.
WEEK 10
SUNDAY NIGHT
Indianapolis vs San Diego: One week after facing the Patriots, it will not get any easier, as the Colts will play the Chargers from San Diego.
WEEK 11
SUNDAY NIGHT
Chicago vs Seatle: The Seahawks were defeated by the Bears last year on Sunday Night Football, and were knocked out of the posteason by the Bears. Seattle will be hungry for revenge,
WEEK 12
THANKGIVING DAY
Indianapolis vs Atlanta: While you finish stuffing your face with stuffing and turduckens, Mike Vick vs Peyton Manning will square off on NFL Network.
MONDAY NIGHT
Miami vs Pittsburgh: Joey Porter was a vital cog of the Pittsburgh Steelers Super Bowl XL victory, and he will have plenty to say as he faces his former team.
WEEK 13
New York Giants vs Chicago: That game last year, on Sunday Night Football, was where Devin Hester set a new NFL record for the longest return of a missed field goal in the history of the NFL. If New York was smart, they will be sure to make their field goals this year.
WEEK 14
SUNDAY NIGHT
Indianapolis vs Baltimore: The Colts used to be in Baltimore. The Ravens are now in Baltimore. The "We hate Robert Irsay" crowd will be in full force in Baltimore.
MONDAY NIGHT
New Orleans vs Atlanta: Joe Horn faces his former team in a big rivalry game.
WEEK 15
Philladelphia at Dallas: Get out your popcorn, as Terrell Owens will surely be the highlight of this game.
MONDAY NIGHT
Chicago vs Minnesota: Big NFC North rivalry game.
WEEK 16
Cleveland at Cincinnati: The Battle of Ohio, and Chris Henry will be a part of it.
WEEK 17
New Orleans vs Chicago: A rematch of the 2006 NFC Championship Game, and this game could have playoff implications for one or Both teams.
SUNDAY NIGHT
Kansas City vs New York Giants: Not a bad way to finish the 2007 NFL Regular season, as Larry Johnson will face Thomas Jones. This game will be a treat for those who love the running game.
The Road to Super Bowl XLII has been carved. Are You ready for some football?
