Smizzy Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 On Sunday, Sept. 11, the FOX national doubleheader game at 4:15 p.m. ET will feature the Dallas Cowboys at the San Diego Chargers. For Dallas, it will be the debut of their new quarterback, 13-year veteran Drew Bledsoe. For the Chargers, they will launch the defense of their AFC West title under quarterback Drew Brees, the 2004 NFL Comeback Player of the Year. The Sunday night primetime game (8:30 p.m. ET) on ESPN will be a clash of offense vs. defense when the Indianapolis Colts visit the Baltimore Ravens. It will be the Colts' high-powered offensive trio of quarterback Peyton Manning, running back Edgerrin James and wide receiver Marvin Harrison against the Ravens' staunch defense led by linebacker Ray Lewis and safety Ed Reed, the NFL Defensive Player of the Year who led the league in interceptions last season with nine. The Sept. 12 Monday night opener on ABC at 9:00 p.m. ET will be a rematch of last season's NFC Championship Game featuring two of the NFL's most exciting quarterbacks -- the visiting Philadelphia Eagles' Donovan McNabb against the Atlanta Falcons' Michael Vick. The Eagles defeated the Falcons in last January's championship game, 27-10.

Green Jets & Ham Posted March 22, 2005 Author Share Posted March 22, 2005 guesses on who we open with? Well I know its gonna be a road game because the Jets opened at home last year ... I think we've only opened at home back-to-back seasons one time since we moved to the meadowlands, if that? And since we already know its not the Patriots, Falcons, or Ravens {see Smizzy's post}, that narrows it down to five possibilities Broncos Chiefs Panthers Dolphins Bills I don't think it will be a division opponent on week one .. too early .. so I'm thinking Broncos, Chiefs, or Panthers? So that's my best guess .... one of those three @ Broncos @ Chiefs @ Panthers Just a hunch, but if I have to pick one I say we open @ Denver http://www.newyorkjets.com/schedule/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxman Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 They picked the Raiders because of all the new big names they have. Won't change the outcome though. The Pats will win this one in a laugher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faba Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 Agreed Max- Raiders are good for their bad boy image to create hype and the appeal of Moss in first game- take it to the bank on Pats winning that game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gainzo Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 Didn't see this one coming. I really thought it would have been the Chargers or Jets. I hate the Raiders so at least it will be fun watching a good old fashioned ass kickin. Here is a quote from Al Davis about the schedule: At the NFL meetings in Hawaii, Raiders owner Al Davis did not seem pleased about the scheduling. "Payback, that's all," Davis said. "They have us playing the model franchise in pro football on a Thursday night. It's payback. But it's fine." Davis, who has fought the NFL multiple times in court cases, believes the league is determined to make life as difficult as possible for his team.

RSJ Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 Payback for what? I think what he means is that the league is always trying to hold his team down one way or another due to the many lawsuits he has filled against the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaMont will run over wilfat and "cheapshot" rodney on his way to the endzone To be perfectly honest, I was ecstatic that the Jets continued to give Martin carries last year. I still remember Jordan's 14-yard run up the middle. He juked out two LB's and completely bowled over Wilson in picking up 5 extra yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YJF Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 SEASON OPENER- RAIDERS AT PATS Since The Refs do such a good job for their boss, Bob Kraft. Expect Randy Moss and Jerry Porter to be mugged on every play. JETS POTENTIAL OPENER Jets opened at Washington in 2003, Home last year vs Bengals So we could be at home again. It's not out of the realm of possibility. Just as a curveball, I'll say Jets home vs Chargers Playoff Rematch. Since The Pats are playing an AFC West team at home. It might be AFC East vs AFC West in week one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l_j_r Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 ... lamont is going to open up his career as a starting rb with a monster game... ... while the patriots will still hold a 10-7 lead at the half mangini will not be able to move the chess pieces in the 2nd half like crennel did ... ... while the pats 'd' maintains focus on moss & porter ... lamont opens up a 40+ run for a td against a 7 man front in the 3rd quarter... ... he continues to keep the chains moving & brady and co. on the bench for much of the 4th punching a late td in from about the 7... ... in a shocker to start next season off ... raiders - 21 pats - 20 lamont serves notice 22 carries 165 yds 2 td's l_j_r Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatsFanTX Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 while the patriots will still hold a 10-7 lead at the half Are you kidding me? 10 points at half time against that putrid defense? Dillon will have 100 yards by halftime alone. This game will be a calkwalk for the Pats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not think they will give the Jets home opener two years in a row Thanks for the correction. My mistake. There's no rule that says The Jet can't open at home two years in a row. The Jets played road openers two years in a row. At Buffalo in 2002 and At Washington in 2003. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pats will win this one in a laugher. i dont think you should under-estimate how dope of an offense the raiders will field Moss and Porter, PLUS a decent RB and a veteran QB who can throw vertically its just too bad the Raiders defense is horrible and will give up 40 points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
