Here's my annual win predictions for each team. I didn't do so hot last year as a whole. Looking to rebound a little. Will follow up w/ my NFL bets placed for the season

I'm not even gonna try this year. LOL my predictions are usually horrible. I am just glad that football is back!! I watch every game I can, its the only sport I really watch.
Couple thoughts though, Not sure why you think Cam will be pulled after 5 games. If he's healthy, he will stay and win for them. If he's not healthy, then it won't be a matter of pulling him, he will leave due to injury. You only gave Washington 1 game? I think they are better than that. Rivera is a good coach. Maybe not playoffs, but they are better than 1 game. I also don't see Dallas at 11 wins. Top of that division yes. But they have a lot of talent with crappy coaching. Now that the Rams are healthy again, they should be near the top. Not the bottom. Raiders will be better than the Broncos. Minshew will mess up the plan to tank for Trevor.
Edit: forgot this one- I've often thought Tom is a system QB, not the goat everyone else thinks he is. Brees is the current goat, in my opinion, and I'd rather have Manning or Favre or Brees than Tom any day. I think we will see that over the course of the season. They will still win because of Arians' coaching. But NO will take the division.
Everything else, I agree with you!

Here's my thoughts on above, and keep in mind these were before week1 and not after...so didn't have anything to go by but past observations and camp reports
*Cam will be fine when he's winning, but his 'antics' will clash with the Patriots culture and Belichick when they struggle. Wearing his chains during the game, crazy clothes, social media focus, etc will start wearing thin real fast. I don't see it lasting long. Yes, 5 games is a super stretch, but I don't see Cam lasting past year1, and may be gone during year1. I watched half the game and didn't see any great throws. He can still win with his legs, until he doesn't. All QBs eventually have to win with their arms too. *WAS is still bad. AZ will win 34-10 next week vs. WAS and they will struggle to win more games. 1 is low of course, but I don't see over 4 or 5. *DAL will be fine. I don't like DAL, but they have too much talent to fail long-term *LAR will still finish around .500. Goff is crap. Their weaknesses are more exposed to the rest of the NFL. I'll stick with my 8 wins *Never really see OAK or DEN play except 1-2x a year. I think 7 wins is still a fair guess for both *Minshew started hot last year and finished weak. It's a long season. I picked JAX to win that game and they did. No change to my prediction. *Eventually teams will make NO beat them through the air with downfield passes. The screens to Kamara will get plugged up by better defenses.

I’m just happy that my city (Las Vegas) finally has a team. Our first game and first win was great on Sunday and I’m looking forward to seeing them play in the brand new stadium Monday night. All the Las Vegas facilities are state of the art and 10x better than what they had in Oakland. I hope they do as well as the Golden Knights did in their first season. Go Raiders!

Not quite pulled yet...but 0 TDs and 5 INTs in last 2 games. My take on Cam Newton looking pretty good

Another great week for me! Cardinals huge division dub over Seattle, yes it was ugly but it seems like when those teams play in AZ bizarre shite happens. A win is a win though so I will take it and 5-2 puts us in a prime spot.
Steelers won a great game in a tough environment to remain the only undefeated team in the league. That Pittsburgh D is arguably the best in the league and if Ben can avoid some of those stupid turnovers like what he had in the second half against Tennessee they will be tough outs. Ironically, Big Ben is their wildcard. Even though he has been the mainstay the past 15 years and responsible for two SB's, his inconsistency and injury history the past several years makes him a bit of a liability. That being said, when he is playing well, he is still one of the best in the business and his arm appears to be just as strong as when he was a rookie.
Browns rallied late despite OBJ's bad injury. After the first couple possessions, Baker was nearly flawless and if he plays similar to that the rest of the year they will be golden. Thing I worry about with this team is that none of the 5 wins have come against playoff caliber teams, yes Dallas and Washington are firm in the NFC Least race, but let's face it, when a division winner is likely to have 7 wins, they aren't playoff caliber. The two elite teams that Cleveland has played which are the Steelers and Ravens they have shite the bed and have lost by a combined 76-13. Until the beat a playoff team or even compete with them until the end of the game, I am not excited.
Combined they are all 16-4. While most likely unstainable, it's fun to ride the gravy train for awhile, cause lord knows the Browns and Cardinals have had many lean years lately with minimal success.

I’m hoping we can come down from Reno to catch a game next year. Would love to have the scheduling gods give us a weekend when the Eagles are playing the Raiders and the Flyers are playing the Knights. |

I'm more interested to see how many overpaid veterans my Vikings can get rid of before the deadline. It's gotta happen. The "All in on Cousins" thing did not work, the door is closed, time to reset and rebuild around a new guy and a new coach. Honestly, I still don't blame them for going after Cousins, it made perfect sense at the time, just didn't work out. Learn and move on but I don't think Zimmer or Spielman make it to next season. Though I do see a really good team forming again in 3-4 years.

Dallas is overrated. They always are. Paper tigers. Field mice. Eagles had some time to get a few guys back from injury. Looking forward to seeing WR Jalen Reagor back. Our path is clear in a weaker division. Continue to get healthy and build the chemistry from a missed preseason. Make the playoffs and it’s a whole new season. Just need to be clicking then. |
