Every take from Around the NFL (podcast)
401–425 of 931
I think I have the Eagles by one point. That's where the model I set it out
I'm actually with you on this one... I feel very confident that Seattle win.
it's Seattle at home against the Buccaneers. I think Seattle might be the best team in the league. ... I would go up to six seven points on this and like the Seahawks in this specific week.
I'm having the Broncos win in Philadelphia. ... I like the Broncos to go in, maybe make a statement and go ahead and win it.
I think the Patriots are going to give up a ton of points and the defense is going to be a problem. And the Bills win.
And you look for surprise teams when you look for, oh, who could have a longer playoff run than you expect? ... You look to line play right now, Broncos still have one of the best offensive lines in the entire league.
My second pick is the Colts to win by six and a half. More than six and a half. Okay, they're playing the Raiders, they're at home.
I've divided the entire league into different groups... dead last in the NFL, I would put the Titans that's thirty two. Saints would be next, Dolphins at thirty... the Carolina Panthers... The Jets above them... The Raider, the Giants, and then at the very top of this list, the Browns... this is the number twenty one team overall, the Bears. Then the Bengals have the Patriots at twenty three and the Cowboys at twenty four... I'm putting the Vikings at the top of that list. The Jaguars are next... Stealers. Below them right in the middle of the NFL at sixteen, The Broncos at seventeen... The Texans... The Cardinals and the Falcons... number ten... The Seahawks... The Colts at eleven... The Commander's at twelve and then the forty nine ers... I'm putting the Packers... number one, the Lions and Eagles right behind them... So they're there at four, Bills at five, Ravens at six, and then the Rams, the Bucks, and... the Kansas City Chiefs
They still have Matt Lafleur, a quarterback I believe in, and what I think is going to be the best defense in the league.
I'm taking the Bears plus one against the Raiders... I do think what I saw last week against Dallas is replicable against Vegas.
me and Cynthia and her computer model are agreeing... these are our favorite confidence picks of the week, which is Packers minus seven.
I actually think what Hyfez did is rational. I would pick the Chargers in this one too.
I wanted to pick the Vikings in this one... ultimately I think the Vikings defense is gonna be the difference.
And that's what the Jaguars have looked like to my eye, Like they kind of look like a sixth seed to me.
This is really boring, but I'm doing the Chargers giving six and a half to the Giants.
We are both on the Jets plus two and a half in Miami... I just think this is the Jets chance to go win a game... I'm going Jets.
which is Packers minus seven... I'm really I'm really big on the Packers.
Again, she has the Jets and the Packers Jets plus two and a half.
I don't think in a game where everyone's going to Europe, Carson Wentz is going to move the ball on the Steelers defense consistently... in the fourth quarter, in that moment, as long as the one score game, I just think that's the great
So Cynthia's third pick, by the way, the Washington Commanders... She has them as a road favorite in Atlanta.
I like the Jags plus three and a half. Yeah, in San Francisco. I actually kind of liked them to go and just win this game straight up.
I'm actually anti Steelers this week, at least in terms of picking the Vikings.
But if I had to pick, I'm on the Giants because week one, You're right, but Russell Wilson would have been starting
So I'm gonna go ahead and take them because I have the Cowboys winning that outright
I think that the Bucks win. I don't think that they win in a very super convincing fashion
