I like the way this falls. Eagles will have an edge because of playing on Thursday week 1. Saw an article yesterday that said week 1 teams playing Thursday have a ridiculously high winning percentage in week 2.

Pretty tough start to the season, but that is to be expected as defending champs. If we can get through those first five in good sdhape, watch out.

Not a big fan of 2 out of the last 3 games against Philly personally - likely due to TV rights

I suspect that when half of those teams are the SB winner and the other half are the NFL making sure that it's a good week 1 matchup (either an elite team or a rival) so also a decent team at worst, that greatly skews that stat

Commanders Bills Commanders to close the season is a weird finish.

Yah I was hoping that would be a matchup earlier, but NFL is shootin for the ratings to close out the season as they fully expect it to come down to those games for who wins the division (well NFC East I mean).

Micah Parsons loves to run that big mouth.


I mean, I know it will sound biased because Seattle now has him on their roster (although his career is winding down, Seattle overpaid for the leadership), but when DLAW basically told Parsons: "Get off social media ya dork (or social/news media in general)" he basically said what everyone was thinking...

It wouldn’t be a big deal if he was talking shit about Lane Johnson or Jordan Mailota. At least he’s going to put his hand down on the ground and compete against those guys personally. But in this situation he talked shit about CeeDee’s matchup. Why would he do anything to give an opponent bulletin board shit when he’s not even involved in that matchup? That’s click bait shit and that’s the kind of stuff DLAW was likely talking about. What’s good for his pod or good for his social media clicks isn’t always the best thing for the locker room or the team.
