  • Our 2011 Panini NFL Sticker Collection

    Today is day of remembrance. A time to reflect on the events of ten years ago. No doubt there will be moving tributes to the victims and the heroes of 9/11. But it is also Sunday and there are some great football games to be played today. Here are three players to watch who have been in the news.
    Troy Polamalu of the Pittsburgh Steelers has just signed a contract extension that will keep him in the Steel City for the remainder of his career. The deal will carry him through the 2014 season. This coincides with an announcement by Panini America on The Knight's Lance that Polamalu with appear on autographed football cards for the first time in eight years with a small number of those being on-card autos, the first time ever Troy has signed for a company on-card.

    Cam Newton of the Carolina Panthers with be under the microscope as his team takes on the Cardinals in Arizona. Newton will get the start. Only four rookie quarterbacks have won on the road on opening weekend since 1970 with Mark Sanchez being the most recent in 2009.

    Peyton Hillis of the Cleveland Browns will be doing his best to prove he is the real deal as his team takes on a Carson Palmer - less Cincinnati Bengals, who will be lead by another rookie quarterback, Andy Dalton. Hillis will also be looking to avoid any signs of the "Madden Curse." The Urban Legend has it that hard times fall upon those who are on the cover of EA Sports Madden Football and Hillis the subject on all regular versions of Madden 12. In case you didn't know, you can win a copy of Madden 12 just by opening packets of 2011 Panini NFL Stickers.
    Randomly inserted in packets of 2011 Panini NFL Stickers are instant-win prizes that include EA Sports Madden NFL 12 and Madden NFL 12: Hall of Fame Edition.

    In addition to the stickers from Friday and above, here are the stickers we are placing in our album this week.

    2011 Panini NFL Stickers For Week 2


    We had some pretty good picks for our players to watch last week with Cam Newton coming through big in his first regular season start and Peyton Hillis dealing with the first signs of the Madden Curse. As far as Troy Palomalu and the Steeler defense in concerned, who knew?


    Here are three players to watch this week.
    With the Minnesota Vikings' defense already hurting, Adrian Peterson will be looking to compensate by moving the ball against Tampa Bay, especially after the Vikings were held to 39 yards in the air last week. Falling just shy of 100 rushing yards last week, Peterson should be closer to 150 yards this week.


    Matthew Stafford of the Detroit Lions took apart the Buccaneers secondary last week, throwing for 305 yards on 24 completions out of 33 attempts. He will look to repeat that kind of performance against the Kansas City Chiefs at home.


    Beanie Wells of the Arizona Cardinals was the first to score in the Cards win over the Panthers accumulating a total of 90 rushing yards. This week Wells could see some bigger numbers as Arizona takes on the Washington Redskins.


    In addition to the players to watch this week, here are the stickers going into our album this week.

    Marcell Dareus, Justin Forsett, James Laurinaitis
    Roman Harper, Reggie Bush, E.J. Henderson
    Julius Peppers, Lance Briggs, Keiland Williams
    Steve Smith, Shaun Phillips, Eric Weddle
    Richard Seymour, Zach Miller, Devter McCluster
    Michael Griffin, James Harrison, Von Miller


    XLV Super Bowl, Jake Long, Cameron Wake
    Ryan Torain, Brent Grimes, Jon Beason
    Nate Burleson, Barrett Ruud, Gerald McCoy



    Tennessee Titans, Paul Posluszny, Patrick Peterson, Arizona Cardinals
    London Fletcher, Osi Umenyiorr, Champ Bailey and the man behind NFL Films, Ed Sabol

      2011 Panini NFL Stickers For Week 3 And Players To Watch This Week

      We are in week 3 of filling in our 2011 Panini NFL Sticker Collection Album and the third week of the football season. Last week’s players to watch put together some nice stats. This time around we are taking a few chances, hopefully picking some sleepers who could have big games.


      Her are the three players to watch this week


      Ryan Mathews of the San Diego Chargers showed a lot of promise when he entered the league as a rookie last year. This year he has become a definitive red zone threat. With Anotonio Gates questionable to start, this could be a break out week for Matthews.


      Robert Meachem of the New Orleans Saints is one of many targets in Drew Brees arsenal. Some of the focus has been on others so it would not be surprising if Meachem sees a few big plays this week as the Saints go up against the Texans. Both teams like to go long with their passing game and this game could be a high scorer.


      Rob Gronkowski of the New England Patriots has been splitting Tight End duties with Aaron Hernandez. With Henandez hurt, there is a high likelihood that Tom Brady will be looking for Gronkowski when it counts.


      In addition to the players to watch this week, her are the stickers going into our album.



      Brandon Marshall, Yeremiah Bell, Shonn Greene
      Joe Flacco, Dwight Freeney, Antoine Bethea
      David Garrard, Mike Sims-Walker, Jonathan Baldwin
      Louis Murphy, Jay Cutler, Danieal Manning



      Charles Woodson, Toby Gerhart, Charles Johnson
      Chris Gamble, Ronde Barber, Chris Long
      James Hall, Alex Smith, Takeo Spikes



      Miami Dolphins, Adrian Peterson, Jon Beason, Dallas Cowboys
      Michael Griffin, Chris Cooley, Josh Cribbs, Dwight Freeney

      Be on the look out for more additions to our sticker album next week.

        2011 Panini NFL Stickers For Week 4 And Players To Watch This Week

        We are in week 4 of filling in our 2011 Panini NFL Sticker Collection Album and the football season. We’ve been on a roll with our weekly players to watch with last week’s players having some great games.


        Here are the three players to watch this week
        Matt Schaub of the Houston Texans has a tough matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers, at least on paper. The Steel Curtain has put up some nice numbers on defense this year if you don’t count their first game of the season, against the Ravens. The Steelers were burned by Joe Flacco for 224 passing yards and 3 TDS. With the Texans run and gun offence, there is a good chance Schaub will meet or exceed those numbers.


        Greg Olsen, who is now on the Carolina Panthers, will be returning to Chicago to take on his old team, the Bears. The Bears defensive weakness is in pass coverage of opposing Tight Ends. With Cam Newton on the other end of the ball, Olsen could see a lot of passes coming his way.


        Hakeem Nicks of the New York Giants has an excellent matchup against the Arizona Cardinal defense, which is struggling to contain the pass. Nicks has not had a breakout game since week 1 against the Redskins and with the attention on Victor Cruz after the incredible game he had last week, Hicks could find himself in single coverage and blow the roof off of the University of Phoenix Stadium


        In addition to the players to watch this week, her are the stickers going into our album.



        NFC logo, Paul Posluszny, Ronnie Brown
        Anthony Fasano, Chad Henne, Devone Bess
        BenJarvus Green-Ellis, Vince Wilfork, Brad Smith
        Ray Lewis, Dhani Jones, Leon Hall
        Mohamed Massaquoi, Brett Keisel, LaMarr Woodley



        Owen Daniels, Rashean Mathis, Bo Scaife
        Marc Mariani, Brian Dawkins, Derrick Johnson
        Tony Moeaki, Quentin Jammer, Anthony Spencer
        Justin Tuck, Nate Allen, Brian Orakpo
        Anthony Armstrong, Kyle Vanden Bosch, Louis Delmas



        Darrelle Revis, Chad Ochocinco, Hines Ward, Mike Thomas
        Chicago Bears, Nnamdi Asomugha, Patrick Willis, Green Bay Packers


        Be on the look out for more additions to our sticker album next week.

          2011 Panini NFL Stickers For Week 5 And Players To Watch This Week

          We are in week 5 of filling in our 2011 Panini NFL Sticker Collection Album and the football season. Our roll continued last week with our weekly players to watch having some great games.


          Here are the three players to watch this week
          Fred Jackson of the Buffalo Bills could have a break out performance as he faces a Philadelphia Eagles defense that has shown some vulnerability against the run. No guarantee of a win here for Buffalo because of the Eagles high scoring offense, but Jackson’s numbers could be explosive.


          Ahmad Bradshaw of the New York Giants should see a lot of touches with Brandon Jacobs on the sidelines. Match that with a struggling Seattle Seahawks defense and you’ve got the makings of a huge day for Bradshaw.


          Brandon Pettigrew of the Detroit Lions has not had as great a year as his team but that could change as the Lions face off against the Bears on Monday Night. The Bears defense has been lacking against the pass and struggle the most trying to contain Tight Ends which could translate into some big numbers for Pettigrew.


          In addition to the players to watch this week, her are the stickers going into our album.



          AFC logo, Roscoe Parrish, C.J. Spiller
          Devin McCourty, Jerod Mayo, Dustin Keller
          David Harris, Jordan Shipley, Lawrence Timmons
          Mario Williams, Robert Mathis, Daryl Smith
          Champ Bailey, Kirk Morrison, D.J. Williams



          Brandon Flowers, Eric Berry, Nnamdi Asomugha
          Jacoby Ford, Antoine Cason, Bradie James
          Mike Jenkins, Jay Ratliff, Terrell Thomas
          Jeremy Maclin, Kevin Kolb, Chris Cooley
          London Fletcher, Devin Hester, Curtis Lofton



          Drew Brees, Jonathan Vilma, Mike WIlliams, Marcell Dareus
          A.J. Green, Marshall Faulk, Shannon Sharpe, Hall of Fame

            2011 Panini NFL Stickers For Week 6 And Players To Watch This Week

            We are in week 6 of filling in our 2011 Panini NFL Sticker Collection Album and the football season. Our weekly players last week put in respectable performances.


            Here are the three players to watch this week




            Mark Sanchez of the New York Jets has been seeing a lot of turf lately. With an offensive line that sorely missed Nick Mangold under center, defensive teams have been finding it easy to reach Sanchez. This week the Jets face off against the Miami Dolphins who have has their share of problems on defense. With a little less pressure, Sanchez should have enough time to find his talented group of receivers.


            Steve Smith of the Carolina Panthers has averaged over 100 yards a game this season. Last week his production was slightly down against the New Orleans Saints, but look for him to rebound against the porous pass defense of the Atlanta Falcons.


            Tony Romo of the Dallas Cowboys has not had the best start this season and you certainly would not think to pick him as someone to watch on a week when the Cowboys are in Foxboro to take on the Patriots. But you have to remember two things. 1 – While Tom Brady puts up monster numbers every week, the Patriots pass defense is the lowest ranking team in the NFL this year, giving up over 325 yards per game on average. 2 –One of the Cowboys star wide receivers, Miles Austin, returns back to action this week, so Romo should have enough targets to keep his numbers up.


            In addition to the players to watch this week, her are the stickers going into our album.



            David Nelson, Jairus Byrd, Heath Miller

            Felix Jones, LeRon Landry, Santana Moss

            Earl Bennett, Johnny Knox, Antoine Winfield

            Christian Ponder, Jason Snelling, Eric Weems

            Jonathan Stewart, James Anderson, Jonathan Vilma






            Tracy Porter, Stylez G. White, Adrian Wilson

            Paris Lenon, John Skelton, Daniel Fells

            Kenneth Darby, Mark Clayton, Troy Smith

            Chris Clemons, Leon Washington, Lofa Tatupu

            2010 NFC Champions, North Texas 2011, Super Bowl




            Brandon Marshall, New England Patriots, Jerod Mayo, Peyton Manning

            DeSean Jackson, Roddy White, Vernon Davis, Richard Dent



            Be on the look out for more additions to our sticker album next week.

              2011 Panini NFL Stickers For Week 7 And Players To Watch This Week

              We are in week 7 of filling in our 2011 Panini NFL Sticker Collection Album and the football season. Our weekly players last week put in did really well so we are going to take some chances with this week’s players.


              Here are the three players to watch this week
              Folks... it's Tebow time! Fans in Denver have been very vocal about it and now it looks like Tim Tebow of the Denver Broncos will get the start. So regardless of how well he lives up to expectations, Tebow is one to watch.


              In the same boat is Carson Palmer, now with the Oakland Raiders. Just traded by the Bengals for lack of mutual interest, Palmer will replace Jason Campbell after he suffered what could be a season ending injury. This one could be a train wreck in the making, but it is definately worth watching.


              Tony Gonzalez of the Atlanta Falcons has had less than impressive numbers this year. This is a kind of make or break week for the All-Pro Tight End who will have to come through big time as his team takes on the Detroit Lions.


              In addition to the players to watch this week, her are the stickers going into our album.



              Lee Evans, Danny Woodhead, Jericho Cotchery
              Ed Reed, Terrell Suggs, Chad Ochocinco
              Terrell Owens, Joe Haden, Josh Cribbs
              DeMeco Ryans, Benard Pollard, Rashard Jennings
              Kenny Britt, Elvis Dumervil, Jamaal Charles





              Jason Campbell, Rolando McClain, Tyvon Branch
              Vincent Jackson, Kevin Boss, Mario Manningham
              Asante Samuel, Quintin Mikell, Trent Cole
              DeAngelo Hall, Brian Urlacher, Shaun Hill
              Nick Fairley, Tramon Williams, Frank Gore



              Jake Long, Baltimore Ravens, Ray Lewis, Mario Williams
              Matt Cassel, Philip Rivers, DeMarcus Ware, New York Giants

                2011 Panini NFL Stickers For Week 8 And Players To Watch This Week

                We are in week 8 of filling in our 2011 Panini NFL Sticker Collection Album and the football season. Our weekly players last week delivered as we thought with Tim Tebow struggling at first but coming through big at the end for the win, Carson Palmer providing the train wreck with 3 interceptions in his Raiders debut and Tony Gonzalez had 5 receptions, moving him to number two on the all-time career leader list behind Jerry Rice.


                Here are the three players to watch this week


                Chris Johnson of the Tennessee Titans, who has been struggling this season, finds himself up against an Indianapolis Colts defense that has had just as many problems. Sunday will provide Johnson one of the best opportunities to bounce back, perhaps earning some of that monster holdout contract money he is receiving.


                A.J. Green is one of two Rookies that has fast tracked on the Cincinnati Bengals. Receiving passes from the other Rookie, Andy Dalton, in a weaken Seattle Seahawks secondary, Green could be in for a big day.


                Vernon Davis and his team, the San Francisco 49ers, are going up against a Cleveland Browns defense that can be stingy at times. While the Browns have been good at containing Wide Receivers, they have had problems with shutting down Tight Ends.


                In addition to the players to watch this week, her are the stickers going into our album.



                Scott Fujita, Jacoby Jones, Peyton Manning
                Joseph Addai, Stephan Tulloch, Vince Young
                Jabar Gaffney, Thomas Jones, Michael Bush
                DeMarcus Ware, Brent Celek, Ndamukong Suh
                A,J, Hawk, Jared Allen, Joe Webb



                John Abraham, Jimmy Clausen, Mike Goodson
                Chris Ivory, Mike Williams, Darnell Dockett
                Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, Patrick Peterson, Donnie Avery
                Justin Smith, Josh Morgan, Aaron Curry
                Mike Williams, Earl Thomas, XXXI Super Bowl



                Detroit Lions, Cameron Wake, Ronde Barber, New Orleans Saints
                Adrian Wilson, Danny Amendola, Jake Locker, Christian Ponder


                And with the addition of Cameron Wake, we have our first completed page.



                The Miami Dolphins


                The Dolphins are having a tough season, but these pages look great.

                  2011 Panini NFL Stickers For Week 9 And Players To Watch This Week

                  We are in week 9 of filling in our 2011 Panini NFL Sticker Collection Album and the football season. We had mixed results with our weekly players last week. Chris Johnson couldn’t pull it together against a weak Colts defense, managing only 34 yards rushing and 17 yards receiving. A.J. Green had a respectable 63 yards receiving and scored a touchdown. Vernon Davis only had three catches for 27 yards.


                  Here are the three players to watch this week


                  Matt Cassel of the Kansas City Chiefs will have the luxury of passing into the Miami Dolphins defense. It helps that he will have Dwayne Bowe, Steve Breaston and Jon Baldwin as targets. Cassel has the odds in his favor and could rack up some impressive numbers.


                  Brandon Jacobs of the New York Giants received plenty of boos from Giants fans last week at home, none of which had anything to do with Halloween. This week the Giants travel to Foxborough to face off against the New England Patriots. With Ahmad Bradshaw staying behind in New York to nurse a foot injury, Jacobs will get the workload he has asked for, but we will see if he deliver.


                  Julio Jones of the Atlanta Falcons is finally back to full health and it couldn’t have happend at a better time as the Rookie faces off against the same Colts defense that kept Chris Johnson in check, but couldn't contain the Titans passing game. Double coverage of Reggie White should leave Jones enough turf to break loose for some big gains even on short passes from Matt Ryan.


                  In addition to the players to watch this week, her are the stickers going into our album.



                  Steve Johnson, Aaron Hernandez, Darrelle Revis
                  Derrick Mason, Todd Heap, Cedric Benson
                  Jermaine Gresham, Ben Watson, Hines Ward
                  Rashard Mendenhall, Kevin Walter, Austin Collie
                  Dallas Clark, Marcedes Lewis, Mike Thomas

                  Osi Umenyiora, DeSean Jackson, Donovan McNabb
                  Donald Driver, Ryan Grant, Visanthe Shiancoe

                  Atlanta Falcons, Mark Ingram, Jamaal Charles, Pittsburgh Steelers
                  Chris Johnson, Ray Rice, Joe Flacco, Wes Welker

                  Nice looking page.

                    2011 Panini NFL Stickers For Week 10 And Players To Watch This Week

                    We are in week 10 of filling in our 2011 Panini NFL Sticker Collection Album and the football season. Matt Cassel surprised us last week with a less than stellar performance, Brandon Jacobs came through and Julio Jones had an incredible game.


                    Here are the three players to watch this week


                    Matt Ryan of the Atlanta Falcons connected with last week’s player to watch, Julio Jones. Ryan has the opportunity to repeat that performance against the New Orleans Saints who gain a lot of yards behind the arm of Drew Brees, but also give up a lot of yards in the air to opposing teams.


                    Dwayne Bowe of the Kansas City Chiefs has the opportunity for a big day with a second week in a row of going up against a soft secondary in the Denver Broncos. He tends to be the primary target for Matt Cassel and should come up with some nice gains... if he can actually hold on to the ball.


                    Arian Foster of the Houstan Texans has proven himself to be one of the premiere running backs in the game today. Going up against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers questionable run defense could provide an opportunity for one of his biggest days this season, even if he shares the workload with Ben Tate.


                    In addition to the players to watch this week, her are the stickers going into our album.



                    Colt McCoy, Mike Wallace, Pierre Garcon
                    Blaine Gabbert, Brandon Lloyd, Knowshon Moreno
                    Antonio Gates, Dez Bryant, Jason Witten
                    Greg Jennings, Sidney Rice, Percy Harvin
                    Marques Colston, Josh Freeman, Carnell “Cadillac” Williams



                    Kellen Winslow Jr., Steve Breaston, Sam Bradford
                    Steven Jackson, Danny Amendola, Patrick Willis
                    Michael Crabtree, Matt Hasselbeck, John Carlson
                    2010 Divisional Playoff, 2010 Divisional Playoff, XLV Super Bowl



                    Steve Johnson, Ryan Fitzpatrick, LaDaimian Tomlinson, Cedric Benson
                    Peyton Hillis, Troy Polamalu, Andre Johnson, David Garrard
                    Kenny Britt, Dwayne Bowe, Darren McFadden, Jason Campbell
                    Tony Romo, Jason Witten, San Francisco 49ers, NFL Players Association Logo

                    This week we have a completed page and two more completed teams.


                    The NFL Logos


                    Nice to see them all on one page.


                    The Kansas City Chiefs


                    Looking good.


                    The Dallas Cowboys


                    A smart looking page for America’s Team.

                      2011 Panini NFL Stickers For Week 11 And Players To Watch This Week

                      We are in week 11 of filling in our 2011 Panini NFL Sticker Collection Album and the football season. Last week Matt Ryan and Arian Foster had huge games, Ryan with 351 Passing Yards and 2 Passing TDs, Foster with 84 rushing yard, 102 receiving yards and 2TDs. Dwayne Bowe, on the other hand, had 2 catches for 14 total yards.


                      Here are the three players to watch this week
                      Ryan Fitzpatrick led the Buffalo Bills to a strong start but has been struggling the last few games. This week he will be up against the Miami Dolphins who have been trending the opposite way with an awful "suck for luck" start but have been finding ways to win lately. This should be a make or break kind of week for the Bills with the potential for a good game.


                      Wes Welker of the New England Patriots has been dealing with a knee injury, but should be ready for Monday Night's game. As Tom Brady's go to receiver, Welker should see plenty of action against the Kansas City Chiefs venerable short game defense.


                      Michael Turner of the Atlanta Falcons has been putting up respectable numbers. The Falcons are up against a strong pass defense in the Tennessee Titans, so Turner should see plenty of opportunities to move the ball.


                      In addition to the players to watch this week, her are the stickers going into our album.



                      Larry Fitzgerald, Michael Vick, Darren Sproles
                      Darren McFadden, Reggie Wayne, Andre Johnson



                      Cincinnati Bengals, Carson Palmer, Colt McCoy, Arian Foster
                      Reggie Wayne, Maurice Jones-Drew, Tim Tebow, Brandon Lloyd
                      Antonio Gates, Vincent Jackson, Eli Manning, Steve Smith
                      Denver Broncos, Seattle Seahawks, St. Louis Rams, New York Jets



                      Brian Urlacher, DeAngelo Hall, LeSean McCoy, Philadelphia Eagles
                      Ndamukong Suh, Matthew Stafford, Clay Matthews, Charles Woodson
                      Jared Allen, Sidney Rice, Matt Ryan, Michael Turner



                      Steve Smith, DeAngelo Williams, Marques Colston, Mike Williams
                      Dominique Rogers-Cromartie, Sam Bradford, Frank Gore, Matt Hasselbeck
                      Von Miller, 2010 Pro Bowl, XLV Super Bowl, Chris Hamburger


                      This week we have five more completed teams.


                      The Denver Broncos




                      The New York Giants

                        2011 Panini NFL Stickers For Week 12 And Pop Warner, Reasons To Be Thankful.

                        We are in week 12 of filling in our 2011 Panini NFL Sticker Collection Album and the football season.


                        Normally we pick players to watch for the week, but it is Thanksgiving, so keeping in mind reasons to be thankful, there are plenty of kids out there who are thankful for Pop Warner Football.


                        Pop Warner Football is a non-profit organization that provides youth football participants in 43 U.S. states and several countries around the world. Pop Warner is the largest and oldest national youth football organization in the United States. It is also the only youth sports organization with an academic requirement. Pop Warner's commitment to academics is what separates the program from other youth sports around the world.


                        It was started in 1929 by Joe Tomlin to keep idle kids in Philadelphia occupied and out of trouble. In 1933, Joe Tomlin met Glenn Scobey "Pop" Warner, a legend among active football coaches and then the coach for the Temple Owls, at a winter banquet and asked him to lecture at a spring clinic Tomlin was planning for his organization’s teams.


                        On the evening of the banquet, it was pouring rain mixed with sleet. Of the dozen area college football coaches scheduled to speak at the clinic, only Pop Warner showed up. The 800 excited young football players kept Warner talking and answering questions for two hours. By the end of the evening, by popular acclaim, the youth program was renamed the Pop Warner Conference.


                        In 1960, Walt Disney filmed a two-hour show, "Moochie of Pop Warner Football." It aired on ABC in 1960, and helped to spread Pop Warner Football to over 300 teams from coast to coast.


                        Today, there are over 5,000 football teams, playing in eight different age/weight classifications with the annual Pop Warner Super Bowl, held each year at Walt Disney World.


                        The Pop Warner Adrenalyn Bowl presented by Panini America is an exhibition of Pop Warner football teams featuring NFL Players serving as Pop Warner Coaches. Two of the coaches for 2010 were Tim Tebow and DeAngelo Williams, who are featured on this week’s stickers.



                        At the top, 3 Pop Warner highlight stickers
                        DeAngelo Williams, Tim Tebow, Pop Warner Football, Pop Warner Adrenalyn Bowl



                        The Completed Pop Warner page


                        In addition to these stickers, there are a limited amount of stickers that have letters on the back, like this one with the letter "A."


                        Collect enough of them to spell "Pop Warner" like this...

                        send them to Panini following the rules and you could win some great prizes. All the details and contest rules can be found on the Pop Warner page in the NFL Sticker Album.


                        To find out about Pop Warner Football and the other great programs run by the Pop Warner organization for both boys and girls, check them out at www.popwarner.com

                          2011 Panini NFL Stickers For Week 13 And Players To Watch This Week

                          We are in week 13 of filling in our 2011 Panini NFL Sticker Collection Album and the football season. Last week was Thanksgiving and we talked about the great Pop Warner organization. If you didn’t see the post, use this link to take a look. The Pop Warner Super Bowl starts this weekend and we want to send our best.

                          Here are the three players to watch this week

                          LeGarrette Blount of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers has been putting up some nice numbers recently. This week he is up against the Carolina Panthers weak run defense creating a great opportunity for Blount to have a monster day.

                          Deion Branch of the New England Patriots is certainly not Tom Brady’s primary receiver, but Brady should be able to spread the wealth around against the struggling Indianapolis Colts.

                          Matt Forte of the Chicago Bears could be in for a big game at home against the Kansas City Chiefs. Look for a few high yardage gains from Forte.

                          In addition to the players to watch this week, her are the stickers going into our album.


                          Aquib Talib, Javid Best



                          Tom Brady, Mark Sanchez, Cleveland Browns, Ben Roethlisberger

                          Aaron Rodgers, Andy Dalton, Julio Jones, Steven Jackson
                          Carolina Panthers, Minnesota Vikings, Devin Hester, Washington Redskins

                          This week we have 11 more completed teams.

                            2011 Panini NFL Stickers For Week 14 And Players To Watch This Week

                            We are in week 14 of filling in our 2011 Panini NFL Sticker Collection Album and the football season. Last week was the worse week ever for our players to watch. Matt Forte was out of the game early with a MCL sprain after rushing for 12 yards, LeGarrette Blount managed 19 yards on 11 carries and Deion Branch was the best of them receiving 3 passes for 37 yards.


                            Here are the three players to watch this week


                            Philip Rivers of the San Diego Chargers has not been putting up the numbers we’ve come to expect from him. But he has shown signs of life lately. With a match-up against a Buffalo Bills pass defense that has been prone to giving up touchdowns in the air, this could be the kind of day that turns things around.


                            Preseason, it seemed the Philadelphia Eagles had an almost unfair advantage with all the tremendous talent they picked up to compliment an already solid team. At this point the Eagles look like a team in colapse with the only bright spot coming from their running back LeSean McCoy. This week McCoy faces a resurging Miami Dolphins team with one of the best defenses against the run in all of the NFL. Can McCoy still carry the load for the team?


                            Calvin Johnson is the Detroit Lions’ primary wide receiver. This week he faces the troubled Minnesota Vikings pass defense. Johnson could see some big numbers today.


                            In addition to the players to watch this week, here are the stickers going into our album.



                            Jake Locker, Andy Dalton



                            Blaine Gabbert, Buffalo Bills, Jonathan Baldwin, Les Richter


                            This week we have 6 more completed teams and the Hall of Fame Class of 2011.



                            The Buffalo Bills



                            The Cincinnati Bengals




                            The Tennessee Titans



                            The San Diego Chargers




                            The Philadelphia Eagles



                            The Detroit Lions



                            The Hall of Fame Class of 2011


                            Be on the look out for more additions to our sticker album next week.

                              2011 Panini NFL Stickers For Week 15 And Players To Watch This Week

                              We are in week 15 of filling in our 2011 Panini NFL StickerCollection Album and the football season. Last week was a rebound week for us with Philip Rivers passing for 240yard & 3TDs, LeSean McCoy continuing his hot streak with 2 TD rushes andCalvin Johnson... well... he wason the field.


                              This week’s players to watch have nothing to do with theirmatch-ups. These three are playersworth watching every week. Thethree most dominant Quarterbacks in the game today.


                              It is funny to think there was a question as to whetherAaron Rodgers could carry the Green Bay Packers with Brett Favre leaving theteam. Setting records and destinedfor more, Rodgers has been near perfect in an undefeated season


                              Tom Brady of the New England Patriots is the master of thepass under coverage. With theaddition of Rob Gronkowski to his arsenal of receivers, Brady can now go underand over coverage to complete passes.


                              Drew Brees of the New Orleans Saints is a yardagemachine. Doesn’t matter how badthe field position when he gets the ball, he is a consistent threat to score atwill.


                              In addition to these three great Quarterbacks, here are thestickers going into our album.



                              Larry Fitzgerald, Houston Texans, Josh Freeman, Tampa BayBuccaneers


                              This week we have 5 more completed teams.



                              The New England Patriots




                              The Houston Texans



                              The Green Bay Packers



                              The Tampa Bay Buccaneers



                              The Arizona Cardinals

                              Be on the look out for more additions to our sticker albumnext week.
