Let’s keep it rolling.

To The Games!

Niners/Seahawks:

The NFC West isn’t fooling around-right out of the gate we get an important game for both teams. One last huzzah! to Sam Darnold for rescuing his career from ignominy and also getting a much bigger pay cheque than anyone would have imagined.

Titans/Broncos:

C’mon, popular Survivor pick! Cam Ward has to be the least-discussed overall #1 draft pick in recent memory-and that’s probably a good thing with respect to his development. I predict he’ll be the difference-maker in a few tilts later on this year. [the taste of Will Levis slowly dissipates in Don T’s mouth]

Lions/Packers:

Here’s your late slate banger! Goff has slowly shed his “can’t play outside on the road” reputation but if he falls flat here it’ll come roaring back with a vengeance. Green Bay is curious to me in that they seem to be more than capable of getting to the second round of the playoffs but beyond that I can’t see it.

Texans/Rams:

Stafford is good to go? Those back owies tend to nag though. [looks quickly at depth chart] We’ll be seeing some Jimmy G at some point I’m sure. Speaking of the position, is this year’s Stroud going to be more like that rookie that took the league by storm/surprise or the soph that regressed a bit? I think he’s too talented and that he’ll bounce back.

Enjoy the games everyone.
