Let's get this community going! I am a fan of the New York Football Giants, and I'm hoping for another fun season now that Danny got some weapons.

Packers fan from over in the UK, here! Finally got to see them play for the first time at Tottenham last year, which was of course a humiliating loss to the Giants. Don't care, I got to see the Silver Fox kicking irl, worth it.

We're well shot of Aaron though, he was extremely embarrassing. All aboard the LOVE TRAIN!

Home grown Wisconsin Packers fan here, always awesome to see a fan from another country! GPG!

Woop! You'd be surprised how many green and gold jerseys I see wandering round even in my small town in the middle of nowhere, North East England lol.

Seahawks! Feeling much more optimistic this year… of course, the low expectations is maybe what made last year so fun.

I loved watching Geno prove everyone wrong last year. That offense should be amazing with the additions of Charb and JSN. Lockett is probably the most underrated receiver in the league

The browns but admittedly my passion has been gutted since they traded for he who shall not be named

I'm a Vikings fan. I've been a pretty die hard fan as long as I can remember. Born and raised in Minnesota. And I love Minnesota sports in general (unfortunately).

Skol and welcome to Lemmy (I'm on lemmy.world so let's see how this goes)

[–] zaktmt@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Nice to see a fellow Skoldier on here. I was pretty active on the Vikings subreddit. But I haven't seen much dialogue on their Discord about moving to other sites. Hopefully they can come to their senses.

Bengals fan checking in. Been around since the sad days of Kitna. I like to tell people being a bengals fan is like an investment that is finally paying off.

[–] mortuum@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Another lifelong Benglas fan checking in! UK so I lose some sleep soemtimes; worth it. It definitely is paying off, I'm so excited for what's to come.

Pats fan here, this season is gonna hurt

[–] MaskedMan 1 points 1 year ago

Same. There might still be another signing on the horizon though

Commanders fan, never thought I would see the day Snyder sold. I honestly thought this team would stay in his family for generations.

[–] Garrathian 2 points 1 year ago

I've grown up near DC during basically the entire Snyder era. This place from one of the most rabid fanbases around to the point nobody even wanted to really associate with it haha. Its been a depressing time with him at the helm, so glad he's gone

LFG Giants! Danny dimes just became Danny dollars in the off-season, he's about to ball out.

New York Jets for 25 years...but things are looking up!

Call me bitter but I am a former Charger fan who refuses to support Dean Spanos and doesn't have the heart to pick a new team. Due to proximity I am a casual Seahawks fan but really just love football in general. If the Spanos family ever sells the team I would consider coming back

[–] tkronew@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Da Bears! Haven't been this excited for a season in a long time.

Ravens checking in, cautiously optimistic. How are you feeling about Danny's contract? I don't follow the Giants closely, but it seemed to me he was getting too much blame

[–] bigbox@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Danny had a very good season last year. When people criticize him, they completely ignore his 700 yards rushing and 7 rushing touchdowns from last year.

I think the contract is fine, especially compared to what the elite QBs are getting. Plus as the cap increases, the contract will look better and better every year.

Last season he had no talent to work with really and carried the team to victories. In my opinion, he's the main reason we made the playoffs last year. I'm expecting him to have his best season ever, with another year in Daboll's system, more weapons like Waller, Hyatt, and Campbell, Shepard and Wan'Dale healthy, and a better offensive line.

I'm a Cowboys fan and perennially disappointed lol

[–] thru_dangers_untold@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

KC Chiefs fan since the 80's. Vikings are my 2nd team (thru marriage)

[–] caio 1 points 1 year ago

Colts! Finally excited about our QB :)

[–] baronvonj@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Family tradition dictates that the two best teams are the Packers, and whoever is playing against the Bears. But I’m more of a rugby fan, hop on over to c/usmlr if you're interested.

[–] maddison@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

NFC: Eagles, been a fan since i was born. AFC: Chiefs, I'm a fan of Andy Reid and his time in Philly. (and yes I'm still very pissed off about the holding call, i think i will have ptsd of that for the rest of my life.)

[–] Omegamanthethird 1 points 1 year ago

The Raiders unfortunately

[–] philz@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

NY Jets! Things are finally looking up so thats refreshing haha

[–] EvilColeslaw 1 points 1 year ago

Panthers fan here. Keep pounding!

[–] dogzilla@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Broncos! Still hoping to wear the Wilson jersey I bought at the start of last season. Still has the tags on it and has been hanging in the closet in shame.

[–] Che_Donkey@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

as a Seahawks fan: looool

[–] gnoop@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Rams for me. The SB run was phenomenal. This past season was... a mess. At least it seems as if we've recruited well.

[–] bigbox@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

If Stafford is fully healthy I can see the Rams making the playoffs.

Speaking of the Rams, what do you think of Tutu Atwell? I stashed him in my dynasty league hoping he'd become the Rams WR2 or 3 by the end of this season.
