Rich Eisen · Oct 24, 2025

In running through his top Week 8 matchups, Eisen said the Ravens' run starts now against the Bears, expected the Eagles to handle the Giants rather than be upset, argued the Cowboys are set up to win the NFC East, and said he's voting for Javonte Williams as Comeback Player of the Year.

I keep saying the Ravens can go on a run. It starts now.

  • Javonte Williams to win Comeback Player of the Year

    Javonte Williams has shown up in a way you didn't see coming. Comeback player of the year. Get familiar... I'm still voting for him.

  • Dallas Cowboys to win the division

    the Cowboys are set up. They're set up to win this division.

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

  • Philadelphia Eagles to win

    If they win this game, they're four three and one while the Eagles take on the Giants. I'm not expecting that to be the upset.
