Looks like Dallas will win with ease. 1st game, 1st upset.

Although I hope I am wrong, have a last leg of multi on NY. Still 3min to go and NY set up for a touchdown to bring it back to 7.

Where are you going to Craigo?

Some college games are great to watch also. Less formality just like the VFL and suburban games here.

And all the players play like the jumper means something.

Not like that in the NFL.

It's great watching some Aussie kids also.

Brad Wing, as a punter, had a great season and a memorable TD last year at the LSU Tigers.

That was the one that was disallowed right? For excessive celebration or smoething equally as stupid?

I reckon the ref decision was as bad as our umpiring decisions when it comes to 'over the top'.

Brad just did a little celebration by spreading his arms like wings (just like his surname clearly shows!!) when he crossed the end zone for the TD.

Re: NFL 2012-13

There must be something about yellow & black to be slow starters just like the Tigers.

C'mon Steelers. Broncos are easybeats.

Damn it!! Nice interception by Porter....game over. Steelers are too static with rushing while the Broncos just cruised through.

There's a lot of Tigers in college teams Bono. Lost yesterday but Mizzou did a good job in Week 1 against SE Louisiana though.

As for the Broncos over the Steelers, it shows how good Peyton Manning still is after 13 years.

Re: NFL 2012-13

I can't stand the Ravens, but Flacco killed the Bengals today. There must have been some emotion in their game considering long time owner Art Modell died just last week.

Re: NFL 2012-13

Lions v 49ers will be interesting later today as the 2 Jimmys will be at each other's throats again like last season.

Looking forward to watching this.

Re: NFL 2012-13

Solid win from the 9ers, Alex Smith was great especially in the 4th when it was only a one possession game.....some clutch passes.
9ers have the best defense in the league, Crabtree will have a career best season.

Yeah...'solid' is probably the best word I could say.

Lions defence was weak today but they are getting better in offence with Stafford as QB who was on par with Alex Smith in the stats today.

Smart rush by Davis late in the 4Q sealed the game. Good to see Benny Graham kick 2 punts.

Steelers came from behind beating the Tebow-less NY Jets...and he wasn't even the QB??

It was a bad day in New England.......sheesh....
