Best home game for your team (1 Viewer)

Say you win tickets on the 50 yard line to whichever home game you want for your favorite team (and travel expenses if you're out of town). Which game do you pick?

The best home game for me as a patriots fan is pats/broncos, for the obvious rivalry. But I've seen manning/brady live, and its hard to decide whether I would rather watch it at home, at a sports bar, or at the stadium. A division rivalry game like the jets is always good, but while the jets can sneak a game here or there, they haven't been a real rival for a couple years. The bengals could be the best matchup, just because they ended bradys consecutive td streak last year in a torrential downpour loss in cinci. But the game I think I would most like to actually go to is the lions game, to watch Revis vs. Calvin live. There's so much more to see when you watch those matchups live than on tv, and I won't get to see those guys again for four years. Then again, this could be the very last manning/brady matchup, so there's that, too. Its close, but I might just take the lions over the broncos.

Always the Falcs in the Dome, but otherwise I'm most looking forward to the Packers in NO. I will be there.

Id love to watch the niners seahawks game on Thanksgiving day.

Right now, it's a toss up for me between the week 5 Monday night game between the Redskins and the Seahawks or the week 17 game between the 'Skins and the Cowboys.

The MNF game has the obvious national spotlight appeal, but WAS v. SEA has developed a little bit of bad blood (about as much as can be developed between teams that only seem to meet every other year, or so). At least from the perspective of Redskins fans. Playoff appearances are rare these days for us, and Seattle has knocked the 'Skins from the playoffs in their last 3 appearances (going back to '05). Not to mention the drama involved in the last time they met (RGIII injury, Trent Williams - Richard Sherman post-game dustup, etc.).

If I could be assured that the Washington/Dallas game would have some sort of postseason significance, I'd take that one hands down, though. That game will be electric if by some miracle the 'Skins have a playoff berth on the line.
