Rich Eisen · Nov 24, 2025

Eisen called the Rams-winning-it-all take an overreaction but expects Los Angeles to win the NFC West, said he doesn't see how Myles Garrett fails to win Defensive Player of the Year, and called George Pickens perhaps the third-best receiver in the NFL this season.

I honestly don't know how Myles Garrett does not wind up defensive player of the year.

  • Myles Garrett to win Defensive Player of the Year

    First of all, Miles Garrett is called game on that right now as we all know... I don't know how Myles Garrett does not wind up defensive player of the year.

    Think this is wrong?

  • Los Angeles Rams to win the division

    Can't come from the NFC West because the Rams are gonna win it, I think.

    Not settled yet. This is graded once the season it describes has finished.

  • George Pickens to finish top 3 at his position, by receiving yards

    He's probably the maybe, what, the third best receiver in the NFL this year?

    Too vague to check — we could not tell what would count as right.
