    Favre has more INT's this year than Cutler :pac:.

    Cutler will do 1 better than last years opening day and throw 5 on Sunday, He can't have anyone especially No 4 top his Ints. :D

    Not sure where ya all are watching this game

    I read about the interception and then the 2 minute warning before Gamepass got there.
    Gamepass must be a minute or two behind

    Going to have to stop reading this thread so :D

    Tight game so far (2nd with 2 min warning). Will Saints profit from interception?

    To be honest they haven't profited from how poor the Vikes Defense started. The more this goes on I can see the Vikes D step it up Jared Allen hasd gotten more and more into it as the half has gone on.

    King reports that Brady signed extension to 2014. Highest paid player in the league.

    Excellent drive by the Saints here. Really top class pro drive.

    Wonder if Moss will get a new one too. Could be a very uncomfortable few weeks for him/NE, if he doesn't feel "wanted"

    I'd say he will but the great thing about what he said is that he wants to stay in New England and thats great news.

    3 down, 1 to go. Not full of confidence bard on 3rd quarter performance, can do better things on defense and offense needs to put a scoring drive in here and now if we want a win tonight

    Thats going to be hard to over turn the decision on the field of incomplete pass. From one side it looks complete from the other it doesn't.

    That's a complete pass to me - I understand the second ruling on the field jumps ahead ofthe first ruling but there was no evidence there to show it was incomplete. Thems the breaks though. It's up to us now to put up 6

    Hmm, not as high quality game as i would thought it would be.

    Very little offense but it wasnt because of top class defense, defense was good, but this performance wont strike fear into the Saints and Vikings opponents for next week

    Its was a rough one alright. The rule is that there must be undisputable evidence to overturn the call on the field and there was time where the ball was not visible. Very unfortunate, I think it was a catch myself.

    That's the game barring a major surprise. Adrian ran the ball hard, a depleted defense put up a brave performance against one of the best offenses in the league. Just had no spark on offense, Brett didn't look to be on form hope it's not a sign for the rest of the season!

    Ah, there's Jared. Finally got to touch Drew Brees when he was shaking his hand.

    Didn't think he was too bad, me and a mate were laughing our arses off everytime he turned to look at Nick. His turns are more of a real dramatic swoop. Maybe it was the joy of the NFL returning putting in a good mood though :)

    When the standard bearers are a basketball coach turned anchor, a NASCAR anchor turned american football analyst and a volleyball commentator turned football analyst, I think van Pelt at least has a deep background in the game - his father was a five-time pro bowl linebacker, even if he himself wasn't up to much in his NFL career.

    What was most interesting was when the discussion turned ot Jay Culter for a second - van Pelt pretty much said what everyone suspected anyways, that he has a perchant for dropping his head and generally not being a particularly positive force on the team. I wish Kevin or Nick would have been sharper and pushed it a little further given van Pelt spent two years side-by-side with Cutler at the Broncos.

    I thought he was pretty decent.

    Delighted with the result as a Packers fan. I wasn't impressed with the Vikings at all. Rices injury looks like it's a big blow as the WR were very poor throughout.
