Recap of the 2008 NFL Football Season
The 2008 NFL draft was distinct in that no wide receivers were taken in the first round although it was the most selected position. The Miami Dolphins had the #1 overall pick in the league and chose tackle Jake Long out of Michigan. Atlanta chose quarterback Matt Ryan with the 3rd overall pick and the Oakland Raiders chose Heisman Trophy runner up for 2006/2007 season Darren McFadden. Other notables taken include Chris Johnson (24), Eddie Royal (42), DeSean Jackson (49) and Erik Ainge (162).
In 2007 the NFL in keeping with the international play, held a game in Toronto with Buffalo playing Pittsburgh with Buffalo winning 24-21. The San Diego Chargers played the New Orleans Saints in regular season play in London at Wembley Stadium. The Saints won the game 37-32.
Tennessee came out on top of the AFC going 13-3. Pittsburgh also had a respectable year with a record of 12-4. The surprise in the AFC was the Miami Dolphins who in 2007 went 1-15 in the regular season and came back in 2008 to go 11-5 and make the postseason. San Diego, Indianapolis and Baltimore rounded out the competition. The New York Giants went 12-4 and earned the #1 seed in the NFC. Carolina matched the Giants 12-4 record to get the #2 seed in the NFC. Minnesota, Arizona, Atlanta and Philadelphia also made the postseason.
