I thought they'd have another division in each NFC and AFC and have a couple of Canadian teams and a London team then new team in L. Now the Rams and Chargers have moved I have no idea. I'm sure there will be a London team at some point though.

prob will be it expands the brand and it has done well in the uk money talks, you could have london team, 2 Canadian and 1 US team in a new division would work alright

Think we are talking a long way into the future but I think there will also be a team in Mexico at some point, they've played fixtures there the last couple of years so would expect that that is part of the masterplan!

I've been playing madden and the Redskins drafted me as their QB after i left the lions because I couldn't get a game because of Stafford. They started me and within 2 seasons i won the Super Bowl. Think I have my team. @Otis clue me up on them.

You'd be very welcome as a Redskins fan on here although Id suggest you are about to jump on board at quite a pivotal time for the team, after years of uncertainty at QB during and following the RG3 "era", Cousins has come in the last two seasons and posted up huge numbers, slightly padded numbers some would suggest but huge whichever way you look at them.

Our back office are reluctant to commit and we will probably lose him at the end of this season, expect him to go to San Fran. Then we will probably draft a QB and likely the RG3 cycle starts again.

Dream scenario, Cousins takes us to the post season this year, leaves in the summer, SF pay him the big money he deserves, Belichick decides he wants to prove he can win the SB without Brady so cuts him at the end of the season, he comes to DC to play out a final couple of seasons and tutors the college QB that we pick up in the draft, Heisman favourite Sam Darnold.

Away from QB, despite losing DeSean Jackson and Pierre Garcon, both catching for over 1000+ yards last season our offence still looks strong after bringing in Pryor & Quick to complement the youngsters Doctson and Crowder on the outside and Reed and Davis at Tight End. RB looks a position of concern going into the season with rookie Perine expected to have an impact straight away helped by 5 time pro bowl OT Trent Williams (if he could not get caught smoking weed this season and play all 16 games it would be a big help)

We drafted well in my opinion, and the defence should be stronger this season, I expect rookies Jonathon Allen and Ryan Anderson to have an immediate impact and our Defensive backs look strong after adding Swearinger to Norman and Sua Cravens!

Enjoy the season if you can, we have a pretty tough schedule, the NFC East looks very strong although Zeke's suspension makes the Cowboys a little weaker, and we have road trips to KC and Seattle

Good summation.

Yeah, defence does look stronger. Key for us this season will be the pass protection of Cousins (cos we all know he's not that mobile) and a very strong run game in order to open up the pass.

I know little of Perine. We still have Matt Jones on the roster? I know he went down the pecking order somewhat last season, but I liked the look of him.

No, just looked and though Matt Jones is still on the roster he apparently isn't in Jay Gruden's plans and they are lookimg to trade him before the season's opening fixture.

Yep, think Fat Rob will take most of the workload but Perine has seen a lot of work in training camp

Had a better day yesterday, but the running game is a worry, as admitted by Gruden himself.

So we have Kelly, Perine, Chris Thompson and Mack Brown, is that right!?

Be interesting to see how the Falcons bounce back, will Brady fall of the cliff this season? how will Dallas cope without Zeke for 6 games, will they become the first NFC East repeat champions in 13 years? Can Cam Newton get back to where he was 2 years ago? Will Matt Stafford strive after his bumper payrise?

I'm taking Oakland to beat the Seahawks in the Superbowl, Lynch carrying over the final points from the 2 yard and hanging up his boots again then running over to Pete Carroll to show him what he should have done 3 years ago.

On the Beeb NFL Show here they reckon Cutler will do well for the Dolphins.

As for the Redskins, I will just be happy with a play-off place. Not expecting much more from them.

Michael Bennett sits for the anthem, which will continue as he was in Vegas for the Mayweather fight and was pinned to the ground with a gun to his head by police for being a black man, until they let him go without an explanation when they realised he was a famous black man.

No excuses for Rodgers this season, adding a Superbowl winning TE to an NFC championship winning offence, we should see something special this year.
