Continuing the conversation from yesterday, because there is no way I go through week 1 without talking about my new-look Giants. However, I’m not going to start there. Let’s pick up where we left off…
SF over DET
I’m very curious about the QB carousel in San Fransisco, but honestly, the running game is what has me believing. The D is healthy again, and given what they have the chance to do on the ground this year, teams like DET have no shot.
BUF over PIT
This is going down to the wire. I don’t know what the PIT line will look like this year in light of the loss of a key end, but they won’t suck. BUF isn’t a solid running squad, but Allen is the truth. So, I’m picking BUF in a close one.
ATL over PHI
I don’t think philly is very good. I could be wrong, but how wrong? ATL has line issues, but Ryan gets the ball out quickly. Then win big here.
KC over CLE
Look, the Super Bowl was basically a fluke. That many dropped balls will not be repeated. Period.
NO over GB
This is a straight shootout. High scoring affair to be sure! I don’t really know who wins, but I’m going with NO because of the energy that team is bringing vs. Green Bay being a bit of a mess coming into the 2021 season.
NY over DEN
Yep. I said it. Check it: Danny Dimes sucked in pre-season. Still, he didn’t have his best weapons and he will come Sunday. It will be close, but the W goes to NYG
NE over MIA
duh.
LA over CHI
Also duh.
LV over BAL
Monday night is going to answer a lot of questions about what BAL plans to do on the ground and how teams have grown to stop Lamar. I’m curious, but I don’t think the BAL run heavy O is quite at the place it needs to be given the lack of viable RBs.
