Every graded call published under this banner, by score.
Takes in each band
Where this publisher spends its predictions, and how accurate each kind has been.
Everyone writing under this banner, pooled into the numbers above. Counted by article, with a paginated series counting once — the same rule used for an individual, from the published methodology.
Teams and players where The Rich Eisen Show (podcast)’s writers keep landing outside the room: at least twice, a call published under this banner sat beyond every other pundit who made a comparable one — higher or lower than all of them, in a room of at least five voices. The bar is the banner’s standing lean (+100 would be the most bullish voice in every room), and the accuracy covers just those out-on-a-limb calls, once they settle. Computed, never chosen.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers to win the division
Bucky Irving, Chris Godwin, the defense, Bucks winning that division. This is my prediction.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers to win the division
I I I think the Bucks are are the the class of that division.
And then my NFC South prediction, not gonna just belabor it. It's the same.
Atlanta Falcons to make the playoffs
But I do think they both make the playoffs.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers to make the playoffs
But I do think they both make the playoffs.
Arch Manning to be picked at number 1
they have the number one pick. Arch wins the Heisman, the Natty, and and they take him first overall
Atlanta Falcons to win the division
I know you guys are gonna take the Bucks first, but I'm gonna take the Falcons first... I'm gonna go with Atlanta first
New Orleans Saints to pick at number 1
In the perfect dream scenario, they have the number one pick. Arch wins the Heisman, the Natty, and and they take him first overall
Kirk Cousins to be 2nd on the depth chart
At the end of the day, Kirk Cousins is gonna be the backup there in Atlanta.
we got the Saints. They're finishing last... I got the Panthers coming in third... they're not good enough to supplant the Falcons who I have in second... Bucks winning that division.
At the bottom, I think it's an obvious Saints being fourth... I think Carolina is an is an up and coming team, but I still think they're third. I still think they're behind Atlanta and Tampa... I'm gonna go with Atlanta first, Tampa.
So, yeah, Ravens, Steelers, Bengals, Browns bringing up the rear there. TJ Jefferson's AFC North predictions for 2025
Baltimore Ravens to win the division
And who's first? First? Yeah. Well, that would be the Baltimore Ravens.
Baltimore Ravens to win the division
So, yes, Ravens first.
You add that as window dressing to your Ravens, Bengals, Steelers, Browns finish. Yes, sir.
Baltimore Ravens to make the playoffs
Now, I think that only one team from this division makes the playoffs.
Baltimore Ravens to reach the Super Bowl
I think Ravens are gonna go to the Super Bowl this year.
Pittsburgh Steelers to finish with 6 wins
Eight nine, seven, ten? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, six and eleven, seven and ten. Six and eleven.
Cleveland Browns to pick “top five” (picks 1–5)
And then Cleveland, they're gonna be in the top five looking for a quarterback next season.
Baltimore Ravens to win the division
And I'm going to give you my AFC North predictions. I do believe the Ravens win it.
Shedeur Sanders to make the roster
With any of these guys, like, Shador is gonna make the team outstanding.
Dillon Gabriel to be 2nd on the depth chart
Same thing with Dylan Gabriel. Because at some point, you're if you're gonna keep picking, that's the guy if Flacco goes down. He's the backup.
So you and I are lockstep teaching. Okay? We are. ... I do believe the Ravens win it ... and I do believe the Cleveland Browns do finish last ... I just still think the Steelers are are a better balanced team right now.
Joe Flacco to be 1st on the depth chart
I mean, you see why Flacco's the starter. Yeah. End of story.
Pittsburgh Steelers to make the playoffs
But I think at the end of the day, though, the Steelers are are too good, and I think they do make the playoffs again.
