id bet miami, with the high priced free agents if they arent doing denver/pitt

 

they are trying for stadium renovations there, and this could be a nice little gift

wallace would be a steeler storyline for rivalry, as could ellerbe

they would likely win but in a good game

Makes sense

 

Denver would be my choice

My guess is that Baltimore will open with Pittsburgh or Cincinnati.

 

Cincy has the same issue as Baltimore does so they are out as well.

I'd put strong money against Cleveland just cause it would be cruel to those fans. Would be ugly for the nfl

 

Buffalo still 6th on my list though.

Doesn't every team have to play a prime time game? May as well be that one. Figure they get ratings just because it's the first game of the season even though it would be a blowout .

Nope - this is the only Thursday nighter not on the nfl network. NBC isn't giving this game away to just any team. They want something special, not the worst possible because people will watch anyway.

 

NBC spends a FORTUNE on rights to this. This is a night they try to break records

Since we are going to play Baltimore this would be perfect. Catch them early, new team overhauled, at home, at night, season opener. The first game to... say it Senator! 19-0 baby!

Baltimore can not open on Thursday night at home because of parking with Baltmore orioles night game.

 

They can not play NE because they play them at home.

 

Could it be us?

 

Does anyone seriously think the NFL will open it's year with the Buffalo Bills? They want ratings. The Bills have no chance to be scheduled for that game.
