2015/16 Bundesliga Thread

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.

 

 

For the foreseeable future, no one is winning Bundesliga but Bayern. I mean, they won by like 20-something points a few years back. And this season, in something of a "down year" for them, they still won the league by 10 points. At least in La Liga we might see a race between Madrid and Barca go down to the wire.

two years ago they started out with 25 wins and 2 draws in their first 27 games and clinched the league after their 27th game. after that they got lazy and stopped caring and went 4-1-2 in their last 7. won the league by a whopping 19 points.

I understand that, but my point was I would rather be a fan of a German team not named Bayern than a Spanish team not named Barca or Real.   Fans of a team other than Bayern have a better chance of celebrating a title than fans of a team other than Barca and Real.  Their chances of earning a UCL spot are certainly increased and their chances of finishing top two are dramatically higher.

I don't disagree with that. But from the perspective of increasing global attraction to that league, Bayern is doing more harm than good. I do understand Bayern isn't in business to make sure Bundesliga is popular globally. They are in business to win and they are doing that.

Anyways, from my personal perspective, I like Bundesliga football. Play is exciting to watch and at any given time there is a ton of young talent to scout. From a more casual perspective, the league is just a battle for who can finish behind Bayern, and there is not much excitement in that regard.

Love that Fox Sports is going heavy on the Bundesliga this season. Hopefully I won't have to stream every Bayern match. 

Bayern starting 11 vs. HSV

Neuer, Benatia, Lewandowski, Robben, Costa, Alonso, Boateng, Lahm, Vidal, Muller, Alaba. 

I expect all of Bayern's games to be televised on FS1, FS2, or FSP.  GolTV showed all our games last season and they only had one channel at their disposal.

    • I think in all honestly, the final 2 games are carrying most of the weight in a lot of Bryce talk IMO.    During the window where he "blew it out of the water" window......were a lot of games where he was not above average.  AZ is largely one of those stat sheet games.   Where the stat sheet reflects QB play that didn't exist in the game.  That game was all Chuba.  Meh vs Dallas.  Meh vs Philly.  Meh vs Giants.  Probably average vs Tampa, Den, Saints.  Bryce made HUGE strides vs what he was.  We should be happy.   But when you start comparing him to the rest of the league.....people I think are going too far.  His best aspect in reality.....is his scrambling.  And that's probably not a great thing give his size. 
    • Mays and Zavala looked lost in the Reich offense.  Granted Zalava was probably playing too soon due to injuries but he looked terrible.  This new staff seems to be doing well with our OL.  I also wonder if having two vets in Hunt and Lewis just made life that much easier on whoever was/is playing center.  
    • What the Panthers should target in order (via free agency or via trade): 1. Julian Blackmon  2. Mike Hilton 3. Jaire Alexander 4. Jalen Ramsey
