    We might as well face the champs & see how we stack up. Also, they may not be focused too well with all the hoopla of being champs, and we need to pay them back for ruining our season opener in 2006.

    Second choice would be New England on a Sunday night love-fest matchup of Mangini vs. BB

    Jets fans combined with our fans make for a good tailgate party.

    You might be right, we've had some real stinkers on prime time (except the Steelers game last season) recently.

    I just hope we don't open with a divisional opponent, I've always hated that.

    I disagree. The atmosphere at Cleveland Stadium for a night game is as good as any in the country. And the Browns have not done all that poorly on those prime time games. They beat the defending SB Champs last year, and if I recall, wasn't the game against the defending SB Champs NY Giants which they won the prior year also a night game?

    With Holmgren running the show here I think they will want the Browns on at least one home night game, be it a Thursday or a Monday.

    Lets start with the SB winners ....

    A blitz for Brees, lets put him to ease !

  • The choice is yours.

    Personally either NYJ (because of the history and connections), Kansas City (because they suck), or Jacksonville (because we played them the last game of the season).

    I've heard they are throwing around the idea that they should have divisional games scheduled for weeks 16 and 17 so there is better games down the stretch.

    Would probably help with the sitting of playmakers
