<p>I'm in since I got kicked out of another fantasy league for being too awesome.</p>

<p>We would have been delighted to have you and Vadis back given from TSF era 2013-2014 it was basically you two, me and two other guys who were active season long. But going by activity in recent months I thought you guys had buggered off and we had others keen to play. Vadis emailed me a few days ago and one spot opened up so it's reserved for him for a couple of days when he bothers to check his messages. Unfortunately we can't have uneven numbers in a league but would have been good to have the defending champ back. Though with the tougher standard of play this season he'd likely be under huge pressure to repeat.</p> -
<div>We have a few spots left we are trying to fill in our NFL.com fantasy league.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>10-12 teams, mostly Kiwis but a few Aussies - trying to keep it in the same time zone and establish a group we can roll forward with in the future as getting sick of randoms abandoning it halfway thru. Standard scoring, no IDP - team defence, random draft order, any questions feel free to DM. Despite all that only one of us is any good, and it's just for fun.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>We are hoping to do our draft Saturday Sep 3 at 5pm NZST (3pm AEST, 1am EDT) using NFL.com - we can't move it any later unfortunately due to some silly time restrictions the site has.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>EDIT: 01/09/2016 17:51pm 10 man league is now full, but would look at expanding to 12 if there was any interest, just flick me a PM me for an invite.</div> -

<p>Man, you really threw the toys out of the cot after choking in the playoffs.</p> -
<p>We at least got Vadis back because he emailed me just as we expanded to 14 teams. In your honour we'll award the "Sneaks Freaks Rawls Trophy" to whoever rages most when someone else picks up a guy they've dropped</p>

<p>The Sneaks Freaks Superbowl trophy in honour of the champion is more sufficient :)</p> -
<p>Back to the NFL, Denver Broncos look in a bad position with their QB situation. Dirty Sanchez looks like he'll be cut and Trevor Siemen looks like he'll last one week before the team goes to rookie Paxton Lynch. Dallas also looks in trouble at QB although their fans seem ok with Dak Prescott over the soon-to-be retired Tony Romo.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Have to say, Colin Kapernick is looking alright in his last preseason game. Gabbert will probably start the first game but I'm predicting CKap will regain it quickly. </p> -

<p>Dak and the RB Elliott should get on well</p>

So some moves as the final 53 man rosters (and practice squads) are finalised for teams.
Huge trade - Sam Bradford to the Vikings (who lost Bridgewater for the season) for a 1st and 4th round pick (the 4th round pick could turn into a 3rd or 2nd round poick depending on performance).
Eagles look to be eyeing up the future with this move.
Two schools of thought on this from a Vikings point of view - on one hand Bradford is a huge upgrade on Shaun Hill, should pick up Norv Turner's system well and has the best team around him he's ever had. On the other hand, he's not overly mobile and the Vikings O line isn't the best so he might be in for some punishment and he'll need some time to get up to speed.
Also - the Broncos cut Mark Sanchez - now the Sanchize has been picked up by Dallas. In the East it would seem that the Skins have a great window to again take the division - they have a lot of stability while the rest of the division is in flux.
From a 49ers point of view they really have a must-win game first up v the Rams in Monday Night Football next week given their brutal early schedule. Think 49ers will end up around 8-8 mark but should back themselves to win week 1.

And the NFL season kicks off again with the Broncos holding off the Panthers in their Superbowl rematch 21-20. How the fuck Carolina lost that game I'll never know. Trevor Siemian is the luckiest QB in the NFL right now. Has the best defence in the game and a good running back in CJ Anderson.

Relying on a kicker to miss a 50 yarder at altitude is not a goo dway to win.
Watched the game. Amazed the refs didn't call the Denver for targetting the head. Seemed blatant at times, but just not called. Cam Newton is one tough mofo, but you can't do that every week no matter what

BREAKING NEWS: Cleveland Browns still suck.
-
Brock Osweiler starts with the Texans with an interception in his first drive. M4L fist pumps with a "yes!"
Brock Osweiler finishes with 231 yards and 2 touchdowns. Fuck .
Still, it was only the Bears, he could still be a bust.

No Brady for New England equates to Jimmy Grap winning his first NFL start against the Cards 23-21.

Heeellll yeaahhh.... start up the muthafucker championship parade!
49ers begin the Chip Kelly era with a 28-0 shut out of the LA Rams in MNF. Gabbert was kinda shit though. #undefeated
-
Von Miller is the fucking man
-
Von Miller looks like the MVP already.
That muthafucker championship parade I was writing about earlier.....yeah, that ain't happening after today's game.
