For me, the 1st thing I'm super excited about is the development of all the rookie QBs this season.
Tribusky, Mahomes, Watson, and Kizer. All four have been getting awesome reviews and this league is THIRSTING for some new premier QB talents. The top QBs in this league for a decade have been Rodgers and Brady. I'm excited for all of these guys and I hope they all turn out to be amazing.
Another thing I'm very excited for is Tennessee. I'm a sucker for great OL play and the Titans have two of the best tackles in the game. I am dying for Mariota to develop and for that defense to bring some heat this year. As a fan of a small-market team I'm always predisposed to keeping up with some of the smaller markets, and I think Tennessee has a lot of talent and could surprise some folks this year. [Reply]

There is going to be a lot of pressure to start him if continues to look that sharp.
Would have been cool if the Bears had held onto Alshon a little longer.
But I think the Bears franchise is sufficiently dysfunctional that Jeff George is Mitch's ceiling. [Reply]

Yeah..their ownership is terrible.
If Mahomes looked that impressive...KC might be tempted to listen to offers.
I dont think I've ever seen a rookie look that good in his first ever game...granted its preseason. I think he started 9-9 or 12-12... I cant remember but he had a perfect passer rating for a while...and his passes were on point. [Reply]

Why..because I said last preseason that it would be the Brady revenge tour...and pointed out the NFL was artificially hyping a 7-9 Raiders team that hadn't beaten anyone?
