NFL opening weekend

The NFL starts up this weekend and there are some great games to be played, so lets take a look at the most intriguing matchups on the schedule.

• Patriots at Jets: A week one matchup of the top 2 teams in the AFC East should be very intriguing. How will the Patriots offense fair with all of their new weapons? Fans can stop dreaming of a what if Tom Brady had this or that world, cause he has now has Randy Moss, Wes Welker, and Donte Stallworth to throw to. How much is left in Moss's tank is yet to be determined, but what better place to find out than in the Meadowlands against a division rival. Mangenius proved his worth last season, when he took a young Jets squad to the playoffs, but can he capitalize on that success? Jonathan Vilma leads a very explosive defense aiming for an early season message.
• Bears at Chargers: This could have been the Super Bowl matchup last year, had Cam Cameron kept getting the ball to LT in the second half of their playoff loss. Instead, it is a great week one battle. Rex Grossman has been getting blasted during the preseason for making too many turnovers, and Cedric Benson's work ethic has been questioned. Two big concerns for Bears fans, but I am looking forward to this game, not because of the Bears offense, but their defense led by Brian Urlacher. Will LT be able to do to this squad what he did in this Nike commercial?
• Giants at Cowboys: Eli versus Romo in a battle to sleep with as many celebrities as possible. I guess you don't have to be very good to get the job done on and off the field.
• Ravens at Bengals: A division rivalry will play out on MNF pitting one of the best defenses and one of the best offenses head to head. Will it be Palmer and Johnson or Lewis and Reed? This games tops my must see list.
