John Middlekauff · Jun 10, 2025

Middlekauff predicts Daniel Jones will be the Colts' Week 1 starter over Anthony Richardson, expects Seattle to finish over .500 (roughly 10-7 again), and picks Bryson DeChambeau as the golfer with the best chance to beat Scottie Scheffler at the US Open at Oakmont. He also says Kevin Stefanski would quit by the end of the year if forced to start Shedeur Sanders.

I think Daniel Jones is gonna be the start of Week one.

  • They went ten and seven last year. It's not like they won four or five games, so why couldn't they go ten and seven again?... I'd be stunned if they're not over five hundred.
