Week 3 Predictions

by

Whew!
What a week in the NFL!
How did you do in your week 3 predictions?

Wade & Ryan make their picks every Friday for the podcast, and now we have the results in…Wade totally smoked Ryan!

Ryan went a respectable 8-8 for the week, a healthy 500-with all of his attention focused on his Buffalo Bills.
Ryan did get caught up in some of his ’emotional’ picks, but was able to ride some of his into a good weekend of predictions.

Wade on the other hand totally nailed this week, going 14-2 and killing some of the top picks that he had for the weekend.

Among some of Wade’s top picks for the week:

Detroit Lions
Wade had them to win the game outright, and they did at that, plying on the pressure on the Philadelphia Eagles who were injured and outmatched.

Panthers
When Cam is out, it’s time for the team to shine-which is exactly what happened. Christian McCaffery was on fire-blasting through the helpless Arizona Cardinals defence with ease.

Giants
Teams play to their best, when they need to impress. The Giants were able to impress upon the Bucs defence just how much Daniel Jones wanted this.
They did indeed.

If you took Wade’s picks-congrats! You probably won a lot of money this week.
If you took Ryan’s…hope you broke even.

Week 1 TDs

by

Miss any games on Sunday?
Don’t worry! We have some of the top touchdowns in Week 1 of the NFL for you so that you don’t have to search for them.
Of course, most of these TDs come from the Ravens and Patriots, who literally smoked the opposition on Sunday.
Will they be able to hold up the same intensity next week?
Only time will tell!

NFC East Prediction

by

The NFC East has been a bit of a dumpster fire in the past decade, so what’s to say it’s going to get any better?
Can anyone emerge from here that is able to fight off those plucky AFC teams?
There can be only one…and their name is the Philadelphia Eagles.

Wade McElwain and Ryan Cull look at this tight division to see who might pop from the ashes to take on the NFC contenders.
The Eagles have the best all around team, and with the addition of WR DeSean Jackson, they might have all the tools to go all the way. Will their QB finally rise to the challenge now that the distraction of Big Dick Nick is gone?
Probably.
The healthiness of Carson Went will always be factor, but the running game might also be something to examine.
At the end of it, the Eagles have more tools to go further in this division.

The Giants are a mess. Internally, externally-just a mess.
Yes, Saquon Barkley will be a beast in fantasy, but other than that-it will be watching Eli Manning implode as quickly as the fans do.
They might upset a few games, but mostly themselves.

The Dallas Cowboys are like 3 kids fighting in the back seat while dad ignores them and threatens to smash their toys when they get home.
Everyone wants to get ‘paid’, but do they deserve it and are they worth it in a tight fisted league?
Zeke looks like he is doubtful to suit up soon, and Amari Cooper is probably teetering too.

The Washington Redskins are just atrocious. If there was any time to succumb t the fans and change your name, it’s now.
Dwayne Haskins looks like the kid from ‘Get Out’ stepping into that mental minefield.
Redskins fans will just have to wait and see…and wait and see.

Eagles take the division-Ryan sees them going places.
Wade sees them getting knocked out by the Bears.
Sweet justice.

Baker Trashbag

The season hasn’t even started yet, and Baker Mayfield is already exhibiting some trashy behaviour.

It’s one thing to string 6 wins together, but its another to start pissing off rivals before the season even starts.
(Jalen Ramsey anyone?)

So it comes as no surprise that Baker Mayfield has already starting trash-talking NY Giants QB Daniel Jones.

The Giants took a risk on the Eli prodigy, and no one is really sure how it’s all going to turn out-just keep your trap shut.

Wait til you have a winning record before you start hammering at people.
