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.

    • Interestingly I think we have kind of of gone through this as an organization. Richardson implemented an FO driven tank. Bad roster, no cash spent, coach uninterested. It may have been for different reasons but I think the results were the same. A team that wasn't going to win many if any games. We ended up with the #1 pick. Cam Newton came in and changed the franchise. It worked, but Cam himself pointed to the losing culture in the locker room needing to be changed. It probably took about 2-3 years for that to happen. Tank worked pretty damn well for us. Cam is one of one. Not another like him, everyone can't deliver on his draft status AND change a culture basically on his own.  So as an exercise here are the last 30 #1 picks. If you tanked and got to pick #1 how many of these guys do you think were worth it? Not just good players, but franchise changers. Guys who will take your culture and shift it so the tank was actually worth it. I would say maybe 9 or 10 guys would be worth a tank, pending the last 5 picks?    2025: Cam Ward (Miami (FL)) - Tennessee Titans 2024: Caleb Williams (USC) – Chicago Bears 2023: Bryce Young (Alabama) – Carolina Panthers 2022: Travon Walker (Georgia) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2021: Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2020: Joe Burrow (LSU) – Cincinnati Bengals 2019: Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) – Arizona Cardinals 2018: Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) – Cleveland Browns 2017: Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) – Cleveland Browns 2016: Jared Goff (California) – Los Angeles Rams 2015: Jameis Winston (Florida State) – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2014: Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina) – Houston Texans 2013: Eric Fisher (Central Michigan) – Kansas City Chiefs 2012: Andrew Luck (Stanford) – Indianapolis Colts 2011: Cam Newton (Auburn) – Carolina Panthers 2010: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) – St. Louis Rams 2009: Matthew Stafford (Georgia) – Detroit Lions 2008: Jake Long (Michigan) – Miami Dolphins 2007: JaMarcus Russell (LSU) – Oakland Raiders 2006: Mario Williams (North Carolina State) – Houston Texans 2005: Alex Smith (Utah) – San Francisco 49ers 2004: Eli Manning (Mississippi) – San Diego Chargers 2003: Carson Palmer (USC) – Cincinnati Bengals 2002: David Carr (Fresno State) – Houston Texans 2001: Michael Vick (Virginia Tech) – Atlanta Falcons 2000: Courtney Brown (Penn State) – Cleveland Browns 1999: Tim Couch (Kentucky) – Cleveland Browns 1998: Peyton Manning (Tennessee) – Indianapolis Colts 1997: Orlando Pace (Ohio State) – St. Louis Rams 1996: Keyshawn Johnson (USC) – New York Jets 1995: Ki-Jana Carter (Penn State) – Cincinnati Bengals
