Now that the 2026 NFL draft is over and the first game of the season is announced, why not make a new NFL thread for the 2026 season?

Dallas Cowboys will be visiting the NY Giants week one on Sunday Night Football!

Discuss!

I decided not to go to Dublin last year to see the Steelers, but Paris is very tempting for this season.

Aaron Rodgers announced that this coming season will be his final one.

OBJ

About 6 years too late. He hasn't really even shown flashes of his former self in a really, very, long time. Plagued by injuries and cursed by the party boat. I'm totally excited, can you tell?

Jerome

Yikes!!

I saw that. Rams ain't playing. They lost to Seattle last year because their corners were getting burnt on a consistent basis. Replaced them. Got a QB for the future. Signed Stafford for a couple more years. Now they get Miles Garrett! I wouldn't be surprised if they somehow get AJ Brown. TBH I don't think they will buuut if they I won't be surprised

Plus the Super Bowl is at SoFi this year.

Forgot about that

Garrett is a great player, but I'm not keen on us trading Verse. I liked him.

I understand that but Garrett is arguably the best defensive player in the NFL

They have 2 picks next year so if Watson or Snaders don't do well the Manning/Moore watch starts

Arizona still exists.

Got to feel for Cards fans. Every other team in that division just continues to get better and better, while they're waiting on Jacoby Brissett to stop holding out.

You are right. I did forgot about them

It's worth noting that Myles Garrett waved his no-trade clause just to accept that trade. That alone speaks volumes about the trade.

Don't have to worry about that now.

I saw that as well😞

And we signed JuJu. And more importantly, AJ Brown is out of the NFC East <3 Is that sky turning a better shade of blue? Nah....

Jerome

Thank goodness that trade is finally done. Feels like people have been talking about it potentially happening all off season.

Don't get me wrong, I'm really pleased we've got Garrett, just a bit disappointed we had to lose Verse to get him.

We are certainly going all in this season again. The only weakness we've got is depth at WR. We've lost Tutu so need Mumpfield or Whittington to take a step up, or we'll be using 13 personnel a lot again.

I thought the 13 was by design to counter the lighter fronts they were facing. I think they are going to continue doing 13 as I believe they drafted another TE. It may be why they didn't draft a WR or they may be waiting for some cuts

I know it's not going to happen but let me dream....

Super happy for Coker. He's got all the talent in the world, just hoping he can stay healthy now. Also it's nice to know that the jersey* I bought of his last year won't be out of date. At least for the next three years anyway. 😅

*Yes. I did get a white Coker jersey mainly for the Coke Head joke.

I hate buying jerseys. its so risky and I feel super out of place if I wear one that isn't accurate/up to date.

I will suspect however, that OBJ changed his number so people can't just re-wear their old jerseys and must go buy his new one. #moneygrab?

That's why I've been reluctant to buy one in the past. With how frequently players change teams, coupled with how expensive they are. Feels like a waste to buy something that's only good for a few years. Treated myself last year to Coker and a Tetairoa McMillan jersey. Figured with T-Mac being a 1st round pick, he's going to be on the team for at least 5yrs. Hopefully anyway. 😅

If I do eventually get another. It'll be either Luke Kuechly or Cam Newton, rather than someone current.

Probably. And it'll work too.

Yeah, I think if I ever buy my own jersey, it'll be an LT one, or maybe an Eli one. I have an Eli one, but it was a gift from a former CEO for the company I worked at for 10 years. He'd join us in fantasy football and we'd talk football all the time
