Which home game this year is a must see

Trying to talk my son-In-law into driving to Charlotte this season to watch a game. He’s a die-hard Pats fan, born in R.I. so if the Pats were playing us it would definitely be that game.

 Are there any teams on the schedule besides the usual division rivals that fans get more excited for? This would be my first game in Charlotte so I want it to be special.

Tampa Bay in London.  I will be there.   It would be a serious disappointment to lose. Yeah I know it is a home game technically for Tampa and an away game for us but since I am traveling to see London and going thousands of miles to the game, it the most important game short of the NFCCG which will be held in BOA in the playoffs if everything goes according to plan.

You said aside from division rivals so it's gotta be the Rams.  Everyone, players and fans, will be chompin' at the bit for the 1st game and against the NFC champs no less.  An argument could be made for the Seahawks but it will be so late in the season who knows if either of the teams will be in the hunt for the playoffs.  Better go see the Rams.

Rams in the home opener, Falcons, Seahawks or the Saints in the home closer.   If things go well, the last home game in December versus the Saints would be the one I would rate highest.  I plan on being at that myself!  Falcons for obvious reasons and we play the Seahawks so often that they are a rival even though the are obviously in another division.

First 2 home games are both huge... if we can defeat the reigning NFC Champs in Week 1 and follow it up on a short week (at home) against TB (Gerald McCoy revenge Bowl) with 2 wins, we will be 2-0 with a mini bye.

If we can start 2-0, my expectations for the season will be sky-high.

Rams followed by titans.

Rams because not just first game of the year, but game against the best in the conference last year. I don't think they will be the threat they were, but still a threat and it will be a good litmus test for where they are rolling into the season.

Titans because first home game after the bye and getting ready to roll into a brutal part of the schedule. This is a game that EVERYTHING should be clicking and all kinks should be worked out. If we have trouble vs. the Titans here, we'll have a lot more trouble down the road. Again, a good litmus test for where the team is.

I remember the game where some rams DB was talking smack to Smitty all game...then Steve worked him on the goal line for a TD...one of my fav Smitty games

we were talking about this last week.  Skip ahead to 7:38, watch the master clowning Janoris Jenkins.

Any of the division rivals other than Tampa are always big games and Seattle has turned into a decent rival.  Any NFL game is fun, but if I had a choice I'd pick one of the games I just mentioned.

    • I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.
    • I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--
    • After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
