7 PM game...I'll probably watch the entire game.

Jets likely to be without three starters in opener vs. Lions

My brother will be there. He is pumped cause they have a meet and greet with Barry.

We absolutely have to win this game. Monday night home opener against a supposed bad/mediocre team with a rookie QB making his first ever start. If our defense somehow gets picked apart I think it's safe to say it's going to be an extremely long season.

Good times bro!!!

Good times bro!!!

Should be. Getting in when the gates open so we can go the the store when you can actually move around. Let me know if you want to grab a beer......I?m buying!!

 

[tomdalton22]

I think the Lions take this one.

24-13

I have no doubt the Lions will win this one, but I have a feeling the score will be something like 6-3 at the end of the first half.

Good times bro!!!

My brother hangs out at the hangman club tailgate... someone go punch him for me.

 

[mhughes0021]

It's a bad sign if we lose. Rookie qb. Patricia has coached against them for years. Etc etc. Our run D has me worried.

 

[boogerlovejoy]

I think we win in a shootout.....34-30. I don’t see us stopping anyone very well this year.....even a rookie QB with questionable offensive talent around him.

I hope I’m wrong.

 

[tomdalton22]

I thought of picking up Terrell Pryor as a long-shot for fantasy football. He was bad last year but I have a feeling he may turn it around.

Just read Abdullah and Robinson are inactive tonight. I’m happy Abdullah is out, they need to feed Johnson the ball 20+ times this game. However, I’m surprised Robinson is inactive. It’s shocking how far he’s fallen on the teams depth chart...

Good lord I hope you?re wrong too. If the youngest QB to start a game in over 40 years can put up 30+ points against a team with a HC who is allegedly a Defensive Genius, well then we are in for a very very long season.

Patricia?s defenses are notoriously bad in the first quarter of the season. Look at New England last year.

Pick 6 bitches
