  • KC over HOU
    Feeling froggy about drafting Clyde Edwards-Helaire in fantasy, as Connor Orr would say. If the Chiefs are gonna be worldbeaters I demand to benefit at least a little.
  • SEA over ATL
    Stock up on the Jamaal Adams trade and my Russell Wilson MVP pick
  • GB over MIN
    Apparently I am older than every single corner on the Vikings roster, so now I’m mad about that. Don’t look now but Aaron Rodgers looked more like himself than he has in awhile.
  • CHI over DET
    I should have switched my pick when Golladay went down. Is there a better representation of Matt Stafford’s time with the Lions than him hitting a receiver squarely in the hands in the end zone down 4 with less than 10 seconds left and that receiver dropping the ball?
  • WSH over PHI
    I guess I’m not a total idiot.
  • BUF over NYJ
    The Pats are winning the division again, aren’t they?
  • BAL over CLE
    Nothing will ever go right for the Browns. Ever.
  • LVR over CAR
    Looked for a moment like the Raiders would blow this one. What could have been…
  • JAX over IND
    Both Philip Rivers and Gardner Minshew seem to still be exactly who they were last year.
  • NE over MIA
    Cam rushed for 2 TDs and broke the Patriots’ single-game QB rushing record, and the Pats cruised despite having a fumble-touchback that the Dolphins turned into 8 points, so yeah, this will be fun.
  • LAC over CIN
    “‘I just came out to tell everyone this year isn’t gonna be that different. With the notable exception we really won’t have any money. Have a nice night.’
    – Dean Craig Pelton, Greendale Community College”
    – QB Joe Burrow, Cincinnati Bungles
  • ARI over SF
    After flirting with upsetting the Niners twice last season, the Cardinals finally did it, because stealing Deandre Hopkins was a great move and because Jimmy Garoppolo is still the only QB in the league that makes Vance Joseph’s defense look legit.
  • NO over TB
    Fuck that was so satisfying.
  • LAR over DAL
    The Rams’ new branding looks as shitty in action as it did when they unveiled it.
  • PIT over NYG
    Pittsburgh came out rusty but knocked it off by the second half. Unfortunately.
  • TEN over DEN
    That game felt right out of 2019. I guess we’re still repaying the karma that we withdrew in 2015. The Broncos are alone at the bottom of the AFC West because we cannot play football like a normal team.
