If the Chargers want to switch out of the AFCW they should switch with the Rams because there's a rivalry there from the St. Louis days and it doesn't change the travel schedule.

Per Reddit, the preseason Super Bowl favorite (Chiefs) has only won the Super Bowl in like 3 of the past 30 years. Late 90s Broncos and 2 of the Patriots teams.

It's very hard to win the Super Bowl

Yeah the obvious takeaway is that even the favorites are like 90% to not win the Super Bowl.

Pacheco is recovering from some surgeries and injuries but maybe he’s good to go

Clyde is below average at most things besides screens

Prince is a rookie who has sucked in preseason

McKinnon is really good, but will miss a bunch of games. Like Toney the WR.

It’s not really a need but it would be fun as hell, and bring back the 2018 offense that would go thermonuclear every game with rookie Kareem Hunt getting the rushing title

It would be really funny if the Rams can't even make it one offseason without trading away all their high picks again

I could see the Buccs gazing in despair at their QB room and doing something? But uh depending on which site I check they have somewhere between negative $500k and positive $500k total cap space

Vikings?

Also agree of course this whole thing is dumb as hell and the Colts should just work it out with JT

Nah, the Bucs can't free up the money and they like the RB group they have. They don't even have enough cap space to operate this year until they get Mike Evans extension done.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure this is to play nice with him and show him that there isn't anyone out there who is gonna give him the money he wants and there isn't any value there. So he's better off staying and playing.

But if some team does actually want to give the Colts a first, they should probably take it.

Team should definitely call his agent and tell them they're willing to pay him $15m per year, but not trade picks for him.

I don’t think anyone was predicting the Chiefs demise a year ago and it doesn’t seem like anyone is predicting the Bills demise now, just saying that they appear to be trending in the wrong direction and they don’t seem to have addressed their biggest issues this offseason.

Also, to state the obvious, Sean McDermott is no Andy Reid.

Everyone is going to abandon the Lions as a trendy pick as soon as they fail to beat the defending champions on their own turf in week 1, and as certain as I am that they will lose to the Chiefs I'm not prepared for the psychic damage I'm going to receive when the entire NFL media machine is going "lol SOL"

Depends on how badly they lose and how they look doing it.

If the deluge of purple blood these past few years is actually a ritual sacrifice to the fake football gods, it's worth it. Pre-season Ravens own the best record in sport.

"The Chiefs won't win their division and might not even make the playoffs" was absolutely a trendy prediction last season. I actually think I've seen fewer people outright predict the Bills will miss the playoffs this season, but there are enough rumblings of "Bills are gonna take a step back...Jets and Dolphins look feisty..." that the situations feel similar enough to me

The Chiefs had the fourth best odds to win the Super Bowl last year. Everyone thought they'd be good but there was definitely concern with Hill leaving and a suddenly competitive (so we thought) division.

GMFB predicted the Chiefs wouldn't make the playoffs and so did another bigtime outlet.

But it was the new girl on GMFB and she's a huge Raiders fan so I can only assumed she was expecting the fixed refs to help them out not screw them over
