Ingolstadt and Darmstadt both won promotion from 2. Bundesliga last season while Freiburg and Paderborn were relegated.  Hamburger retained their top division status by defeating Karlsruher in a two-legged playoff, scoring the equalizer in extra time of the second leg before adding the deciding goal in the 115th minute.

Is Douglas Costa a regular starter?

I hope so and I think he will get a lot of starts but with all the midfielders on the roster I am not sure he will be the choice in the biggest matches.  With Pep though who honestly knows

Similar. But at least Barca and Madrid go back and forth. Top to bottom I enjoy Bundesliga more.

I think of I were another team I would rather be up against Bayern than both Barca and Real.  I think Atletico is the only other team to beat Barca in over a decade.

can only hope BVB comes back strong and Leverkusen and Wolfsburg and Schalke pose more of a challenge to Bayern.

Those teams, along with Gladbach were more competitive last year than the previous two.  Bayern's performance against the other top teams in Bundesliga was unimpressive.  The difference was in performance against the rest of the league.

Good news for fans of German football in America: FOX Sports has you covered. After several years of mediocre coverage on hard-to-get GolTV, the broadcast rights for the Bundesliga got snapped up by FOX for the next few seasons. The network unveiled their coverage plan on Thursday, and it pretty much kicks ass.

FOX Sports 1 will carry 58 live matches this season, plus 60 more on FOX Sports 2. Viewers who prefer to watch their games with Spanish commentary will get to choose from a whopping 105 games on FOX Deportes. FOX Soccer Plus will also have a scattering of other matches, both live and tape-delayed. The whole Bundesliga schedule will also be available online through the FOX Soccer 2 Go streaming platform.

The package is significantly better than what was rumored earlier in the week, which included few to no matches on FOX Sports 1, with all the German matches on FOX Sports 2 -- a channel which generally requires a much higher programming tier to access -- and FOX Soccer Plus, a channel few providers even carry.

The Bundesliga kicks off when Bayern Munich host Hamburg SV on Aug. 14 at 2:30 p.m. ET, and it's going to be shown on FOX Sports 2.

    • When Parcell’s said Bryce better “walk on water”…..the implied concern wasn’t that the tiny QB could survive being hit.  It was acknowledging he would have to be extremely special to overcome the handicaps he would face at this level.  Which he isn’t and can’t.  which isn’t just being hit.  It’s being able to play in an NFL pocket and make NFL throws from it….and that ultimately is Bryce’s problem.  He doesn’t play well from a NFL pocket and can’t make all the throws as needed.  He can’t see as others can.  Which impacts the throws he does and doesn’t take.  It also impacts him bailing and killing plays and turning them into scrambles/dead plays 
    • 9:30 kick off here in Scotland, which is better than the 01:20 early hours of Monday that I feared. Will definitely be watching, but probably wouldn't if it had been 0120 as I need to be up for work at 05:45. Falcons Saints is 6pm on the Sunday so will watch that too if it becomes relevant
    • So much revisionist history around the pre-draft Bryce hype. The media was practically united in saying that if he were a couple inches taller he'd be the perfect prospect and it was just a question of whether he'd hold up in the NFL being that small. The Panthers did not create the mythos around him they were just the team that bought in. The team was largely praised for the move after and for surrounding him with what was considered an all-star coaching staff at the time.  Yeah part of the fanbase wanted Stroud but let's be real, we're coming from an oversized franchise QB who injured himself out the league. There was some analysis here on the limitations of Bryce's game but people were mostly just concerned he was going to turn into dust when he got sacked in the NFL.
