edjr 7,097 Posted March 12, 2007 The opening game is usually the championship game of the superbowl winner. I know last year one team didn't want that game. Will it be Pats at Colts this year? Keep the best rivalry in the NFL alive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

edjr 7,097 Posted March 12, 2007 Steelers beat the Dolphins in the first game last year. Because the Colts about playing in Pittsburgh to start the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
t.j 35 Posted March 12, 2007 Because the Colts about playing in Pittsburgh to start the season. Wrong, it was Denver that about it. Worked out pretty well for the Broncos, too, by the time they actually played (midseason), the Steelers were a mess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DBZFan2K 0 Posted March 12, 2007 Steelers beat the Dolphins in the first game last year. And the Raiders were the year before (when the Patriots hosted). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bengals biatched about it as well. Can't blame them..on the road/SB champion/Palmer's first game back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeremy 0 Posted March 12, 2007 So if a team doesn't want to play the first Thursday game, they can just whine about it and get it changed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
