I'm a Bears fan first. Really liked watching Tillman this past season, he's so explosive and can really shift the momentum of the game on a single play.

My second team would be the Seahawks, right now on the STH waiting list with a group of buddies. Hope we get in soon because nothing beats live NFL action.

Charges fan because they let Doug Flutie play (granted they were crappy years when he was there) after Buffalo mismanaged him.

Eagles fan. Can't remember why I started following them but I did and still do. Go back to the Buddy Ball days. Loved the defence back then, Allen and Waters were may favs.

Love this team but I sure hate the drama that seems to follow it for the past few years.

Tillman, Jennings, and the entire D core were incredible to watch last season. Lead the league with 44 takeaways. Being born in '87 I never had the privilege of watching the '85 Bears Defence, something I wish I could of seen.

That '85 Bears team was magnificent. Gave up 10 points in 3 playoff games. Had trouble with the fish on a Monday Nighter in Miami. Still don't know if they've ever won there.

Hampton, Dent, Singletary, Wilson, the late Dave Duerson, these guys were great. And what can be said about Walter Payton. Legend.

Redskins. Took my kids to their training camp yesterday. RG3 looked pretty gimpy walking around, but looked good in the passing drills.

Bears for me, in case anyone was confused in the season threads. I may be the only Cutler fan/appologist on the boards. The next 2-3 seasons however, will be the telling point. Its nice to see a few other Bear fans around though, and I think most fans will be keeping an eye on them and Trestman this year if not for the CFL connection alone.

Cologne Centurians

Actually I used to like Tampa because they had neon orange uniforms.

That doesn't sound good.

They embarrassed my Pats in the Superbowl that year. I still hate Tony Eason.

Surprised to not see a Giants fan or two. Not surprised to not see any Jets fans, the forum software doesn't accept entries via finger painting.

Seahawks fan. I followed the NFL for years, but never really had a team until I went to a game at (then) Qwest Field. I was hooked and became an instant fan.

Going to Arizona for the Thursday nighter Vs the Seahawks in October.

He beat the Jets, Raiders and Dolphins (Marino), all on the road, to get to that Superbowl.

I don't hate cutler, he's the best they've had in a very very long time. The Bears are 27-13 the past 3 years, in games he starts. The impressive part about that, is that he played 2 of those years with a weak receiving core, and a weak TE core. But, in saying that, recognition has to be given to the Defence which, in many Chicago cases, wins them games.

I'm mildly nervous for this season tho. Curlers learning his 4 offensive scheme in 5 years. From all the reading I've done via the Chicago Tribune, ESPNChicago on Twitter, and other chicago based news reports, Jay is being picked off a lot during training camp. Which... Leads to the predicament;

Am I excited for the Defence, which seems to have not missed a beat from last year, given all the interceptions!?

Or am I nervous for Cutler, given all the interceptions!?

Been a Falcons fan since they drafted Vick. I loved him. Everything about the way he played. His entire style blew my mind. He was truly remarkable.

Then the gun charges, dog fighting and whatnot and now I don't like him.

Still a Falcons fan though and it's a great time to be one. We've got an elite QB and the best receiving tandem in the game. Plus an upgraded running game (hopefully) with Steven Jackson.
