Week 1 is upon us, so who do you bet on?
The first week back is usually a little rusty, and full of nerves (as we saw on Thursday), so picking for week 1 can always be a bit tricky.
Luckily our boy Wade has made some stellar predictions to help you out.
His advice for week 1-batten down the hatches!
The hurricane that wasn’t has just passed the east coast leaving cities wet, windy and restless.
This will translate to the games, as the high humidity in the area will be a benefit to the home teams in the areas. The players will be use to the damp, the visiting teams…not so much.
Home games usually mean a lot in week 1 as the fans are back and clamouring for more football.
Wade has the Jaguars upsetting the Chiefs, despite their O-Line woes.
He also has the soggy Dolphins playing plucky football, but ultimately losing.
He also sees a big game for the Panthers who will be hosting the Chargers.
Look for McCaffrey to have a monster game here.
Make sure you listen to our podcast to get all the details!
Good luck everyone!

Not even a chance for the Chiefs vs Jaguars??
No matter, just watch it on your iPad, device, phone, or contact us and we can hook you up with your own private TV.

FanDraft
Do you even Draft bro?
If you do, what do you use?
Well if you haven’t tried FanDraft yet, you’re a chump.
Our friends at FanDraft have been kind enough to let us play along with their software, and holy schmoly is it good!
Not only can you customise your profile, you can also add music, photos, and change how long the draft rounds are.
Best of all, it is all beamed onto a TV so you can watch all of the rounds.
Then, once it’s done-you get a csv file exported that you can input into the NFL fantasy app of your choice.
Simples.
Get started now!
Best of the Preseason
The NFL preseason is now done and dusted.
What did we learn from it all?
Probably that it’s too long, and that the NFL will need to change that before the XFL launches next summer and takes a big ratings chunk out of them.
Now that the preseason is done, let’s take a look at some of the best plays we have seen from this summer of fun.
TBH-most of these ‘playmakers’ are probably already putting in their CVs at Home Depot or Wendy’s, but at least they still have some tape.
Check out this reel courtesy of the NFL.
