So … … … has anything news-worthy happened since last we spoke?
The 2020 season is finally upon us and, well, needless to say, it’s going to be a different one. But in this year of drastic and extreme change, we have all been clamoring for some sense of normalcy. Something that we can latch on to and just forget about the problems of the world. When that ball is kicked off on Thursday Night, this country will experience a normalcy it hasn’t felt since March. We’ve been waiting long enough, so let’s get to it!
Week 1 – HERE WE GO!!!!
(HOME TEAM IN CAPS)
16 – BALTIMORE over Cleveland – The Ravens ended up being the team that the Browns were supposed to have potential to be last season. Hard to see things changing.
15 – KANSAS CITY over Houston – The champs get their rings and has as another gift, get to host Bill O’Brien’s disgruntled team.
14 – SAN FRANCISCO over Arizona – If the Super Bowl Loser Curse continues this year, it won’t start this week.
13 – NEW ORLEANS over Tampa Bay – The world seems to have already crowned the Bucs as Super Bowl Champions…I haven’t!
12 – Indianapolis over JACKSONVILLE – The Jags are going to be the car crash that you just can’t help but keep your eyes on this year. My first BOLD PREDICTION of the new year is that THE JAGUARS WILL WIN ONE GAME THIS YEAR…TOPS! And that might even be stretching it!
11 – BUFFALO over New York Jets – If a table isn’t set up outside the Buffalo stadium for a tailgate, does it still get jumped through?
10 – DETROIT over Chicago – Bears fans…oh it’s going to be a rough one.
9 – Philadelphia over WASHINGTON – Switching their name to just Washington Football Team will still be offensive when you see them actually play.
8 – Tennessee over DENVER – This may have been a closer game, but in the last few days the Titans have added Jadeveon Clowney and the Broncos lost Von Miller.
7 – NEW ENGLAND over Miami – These are no longer the Patriots we have known the last two decades…but this result will still look pretty familiar.
6 – MINNESOTA over Green Bay – The Vikings strike the first blow in what should be a season long neck and neck battle for the NFC North.
5 – LOS ANGELES RAMS over Dallas – Is it me or does it seem like both of these teams have the potential to finish either 11-5 or 5-11?
4 – ATLANTA over Seattle – Look for Todd Gurley to have a solid “remember me” game to bail the Falcons out.
3 – Las Vegas over CAROLINA – Yes, I started to type Oakland. It will be weird to refer to them as the Las Vegas Raiders – even weirder will be seeing them win on the road in week 1!
2 – CINCINNATI over Los Angeles Chargers – The Joe Burrow era got a gift in its first game being against another transitioning team.
1 – NEW YORK GIANTS over Pittsburgh – Simply a Monday Night home team hunch on this one.
Please wait...
