The 2013 MFFL season has finally arrived. The anticipation surrounding the new league year is palpable. PD opens the season against a familiar foe. These two teams met in the playoffs last season, as well as twice in the regular season. PD dominated TDs en route to three victories. So much has changed since last season, but PD will try to pick up where he left off from last season, with a win against TDs. TDs has the oldest team in the league. Only time will tell if age brings experience or decay for TDs franchise. PD is loaded with star potential: Manning, Megatron, Marshall, Jones-Drew, and Gronk. While he won't be at his full potential come week 1, he still has players chomping at the bit to prove they belong on a team with such strong tradition. Lamar Miller, Shane Vereen, and Montee Ball are battling for the number two RB slot. Week 1 is their first chance for them to showcase their skills. Michael Floyd is a player who might crack the starting lineup come week 1, if he has a good week of practice. A victory is a nice way to start the season for a team that typically loses in week 1. A loss is another statistic to add to the trend of PD starting slow.

Player Profile: This week we are profiling Peyton Manning. He is the unquestioned leader of this team. PD is excited to see his Leader start the season on Thursday night. A leader's job is to instill confidence and strength in others; Peyton could accomplish that with a strong week 1 performance.
