Glad to see the NFL lockout over & everyone getting back to business. Free agency galore out here & plenty of players being traded. Arizona giving up alot just to get Kolb which imo, is plain stupid & only time will tell if I am wrong. Arizona giving up
Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and a second-round draft pick in 2012 plus throwing Kolb a 5 year, $63 million dollar deal & guaranteeing him $20 million for being unproven is as wacky of a deal as I have seen so far this year.
The Eagles made out like bandits in this deal & I cant wait to watch this match-up on November 13th at Philly! It will be Arizonas 1st road game of 3 consecutive road games & the Eagles 3rd consecutive home game following a Monday nighter vs the Bears. The only thing holding the Eagles back right now is Desean Jackson holding out of training camp because he is not happy with his contract. Cant wait to see some of these guys getting penalized $30,000 a day...........some people make that working a full year, gotta love over paid pro athletes!
There are other great match-ups as well this season. The Broncos will start the Tim Tebow era as he will be the starter out in Denver since Orton will look to be traded to Miami likely. Bush looks to put a spark in the Dolphins & it looks as if Kyle Orton could possibly be handing him the ball.
The Panthers look to be solid in the RB position & hopefully Cam Newton has a nice pre-season which would make him a candidate for the starting job. The Panthers will definitely look to run the ball alot this season. The Titans get rid of Young & replace him with Hasselback as he looks to have help in the backfield with Johnson.
The Patriots also made out like bandits by picking up prince Albert from Washington & Ocho Cinco from the Bengals. If anyone can get these guys to play team ball, its Mr. Bill! Patriots are definitely favored to win their division & more.

Here are some future bets that I like but I dont have any odds on them because I havent played them yet:
Saints to win their division
Ravens to win their division
