Yup, earlier than usual to show 2 games. Double header tonight to kick off the MNF season. Raiders and Broncos play in Oakland at 10. I like the 7pm start. I can still get to bed at a reasonable time and be up early to fish if my work schedule tomorrow isn't too tough.

Defense has me a little concerned.....Henne looked like an All Pro yesterday. D-Line wasn't bad.....they put some pressure on him......but the secondary is suspect...yet again

The "D" will come around. How about Connolly stepping in for Koppen, he did a tremendous job. Solder totally manhandled Wake. The Dolphins didn't do much with the run considering they have a guy like Bush. The "D" held them to like 2/14 on 3rd down conversions. All in all I thought they played well considering the short camp and addition of many new veterans and rookies. Hell they were alot more conditioned thats for sure.

Yes they appeared to be in better shape than Miami players .The big issue is giving up 400+ passing yards and thats not counting some long completions that got called back on penalties. We keep giving up that kind of passing yardage and we'll lose games. Nice win though in Miami.
