I like it whenever Cammy gets blown up. First one to talk crap, first one to cry to the zebras.

I don't like either of these teams. Maybe they tie somehow.

I really don't like having a Super Bowl rematch so soon. In fact, I don't even think they should schedule these rematches during the season immediately following the Super bowl. It kind of cheapens everything.

Then again... It's a tv show looking for ratings.

They're at the whim of the schedule rotation. Denver and Carolina would have played each other this season even if they hadn't played in the Super Bowl. The schedule is designed to rotate so every team plays every other team at least every 4 years, and the AFC West last played the NFC South in 2012. They aren't going to toss out a balanced schedule just to avoid a rematch.

They can do whatever they want. I personally think they could easily balance the schedule if they wanted to. Clearly the NFL likes the rematch, because it's the season premiere.

I'm not crying about it. I'm sure most people think it's wicked awesome having a Super Bowl rematch.

Not going to lie.

Going to be hard not to root for the Broncos this year.

When not playing us, of course.

How can you not love a team that runs the FB up the gut for a TD?

Defense and running the ball and an out of nowhere rookie QB that looks preternaturally poised? Sounds very familiar.

I don't really want the Broncos to go back to the Super Bowl, because I'd prefer the Seahawks beat a different team. Steelers would be great, Patriots, or a different team.

Except this is only the 2nd Super Bowl rematch the following season since 1998. Only Seattle-Denver in 2014 and Denver-Carolina this season since the Packers-Patriots matchup in 1997. Go ahead, look it up. It doesn’t happen that often. Believe or not, matchups for the following season are locked in stone the day after the regular season ends. Only the dates are up in the air. Believe it or not, the NFL has the best scheduling system in professional sports. Seriously look up how it's done. It's much fairer than you might think.

Carolina getting away with some serious holds the last few plays.
Miller got held bigtime on the pass to Olsen at the 5.

Officiating is fine IMO. Broncos can only blame themselves for not getting not getting off the field on 3rd down.
