NFL Thread v2: The 2020 NFL Season!

[Shazbotdom]

Before I forget, I'll get my Thursday Night Football pick in.

Patriots defeat Giants

I'll think about the rest later.

The Giants are one of two teams against which Belichick's Patriots do not have a winning record (the other is Carolina, both records are tied).

And this year the Giants are pretty much having a bad time. I expect the Patriots to walk all over them this season.

Stafford is a joke.

If they don't pick this week, I will be taking GVH and Serrland3 off the rankings until they resume picking.

Also... I'm garbage this year. I thought for sure that my upset picks were sneaky.

Wow the NFL week is a lot less stressful when your team is off

My Predicament
Patriots over Giants (my grand prediction: Patriots go 7-0 but during next weeks game Brady gets injured and must retire)
Buccaneers over Panthers (Buccs didn't play like garbage last week, and all the Panthers have is CMC)
Cheifs over Texans (Houston gave up 32 points to Atlanta, KC > ATL)
Bengals over Ravens (Not even my biggest upset)
Seahawks over Browns (Browns need to win but they wont)
Eagles over Vikings (Kirk Cousins will go into turtle mode)
Redskins over Dolphins (I will definitely change this one when they announce whoses the Redskins QB)
Saints over Jaguars (Gardner, sadly, can't play ever position at once)
Falcons over Cardinals (Ryan will flourish against Vance)
Rams over 49ers (49ers will get to cocky and blow it)
Titans over Broncos (Titans will turn it on like they do every other game)
Chargers over Steelers (Chargers gotta be going hard now)
Jets over Cowboys (UPSET OF THE WEEK)
Lions over Packers (Defense will do their whole "stop existing" routine again)

[Courage the C0wardly Dog]

I got a bunch of games right last week. Whew! Here's week six...

NE when do they play a good team?
CAR kinda sure
BAL pretty sure
KC definitely sure
JAX not sure
PHI pretty sure
SEA kinda sure
WAS smh
ARI not sure
SF not sure
DAL pretty sure
DEN not sure
LAC sort of sure
GB pretty sure

[Tombradyonia]

NE when do they play a good team?

@ Baltimore (week 9)
@ Philly (week 11)
vs Dallas (week 12)
vs Kansas City (week 14)

Our schedule has us playing in the east or southeast 15 of 16 games, only week 13 sees some serious travel (@ Houston).

Trump congratulates Kirk Cousins for beating the Giants lol Like seriously? Out of all the players Trump could have congratulated, it turns out to be Cousins, who has shown he has no problem beating bad teams? It's just so random.

[Evaropi]

Is it too late to join whatever this is? Because I didn't know that it existed. Anyways, I'm still gonna put my picks down here.

Patriots over Giants (I mean, Giants have a tough time against good defenses, so)
Buccaneers over Pathers (McCaffrey may be really, really good but I think Jameis Winston is gonna have another monster game)
Ravens over Bengals (C'mon its the Bengals)
Chiefs over Texans (Based off of recent news that Pat MVPholmes ankle is feeling better, and Tyreek Hill might be back, this could be a great game)
Saints over Jaguars (Minshew may be looking like this years' ROTY, but the Saints are on a hot streak and I don't think the Jags D is up for that)
Vikings over Eagles (Kirk will most likely choke, but I think the defense is going to have a field day)
Seahawks over Browns (Russel Wilson is having another good year and Mayfield isn't, nuff' said?)
Redskins over dolphins (Wow what a matchup , but the Miami Tankers are still probably not gonna win)
Falcons over Cardinals (I know stats say against this but, I think Jones and Freeman are gonna have another good game)
49ers over Rams (Last year I would NOT have said this but, based off of Monday night, the 49ers really got their stuff together)
Cowboys over Jets (Unless Sam(ono) Darnold will play, I don't see this panning out well for the Jets, at all)
Titans over Broncos (Sure, Broncos pulled off an upset last week but I just don't think they can go back to back)
Chargers over Steelers (Chargers with MG III back is a strong team, and Philip Rivers, of course. Especially if Mason Rudolph is gonna be out again)
Lions over Packers (I really don't think this, but as a Vikes fan, I can't root for the Packers, ever)

Well, they did go golfing in 2017, but yeah, totally weird and random.

Stafford is a joke.

That joke has the Lions in pouncing distance of the NFC North lead.

Yeah, I watch Gridiron Heights all the time but I don't think the NFC North/Lions are a joke, by far. I am a Vikings fan, and I truly believe the Lions actually might win the division this year. We are all just waiting for Aaron to retire though.

Everyone seems to be underestimating the Lions this Monday Night, but I think they're gonna surprise people, knock off Rodgers and Co., and finally start getting a little respect.

Also, Rodgers fantasy owner here. Guy has had one (count them, one!) good game this season. I don't think he makes that two this week.

Yeah, I saw you're a Steelers fan? *pats Idzequitch's back*

Also, I picked up Pat "MVP" Maholmes, so I sort of feel you with that "he should be producing better than that" but I mean, hopefully, we have some good games.

Nope, never too late, especially for a fellow Vikings fan! Welcome aboard!

One of my friends postulated that it's because he's coming here for a rally tomorrow and wants to get some goodwill from us locals.

You'll have to fumigate or some kind of _____ -gate once he's gone.

Still, that was 2 years ago, and he was on the Redskins then, at least there was a semblance of a reason then.

Oh right, I completely forgot about that! Still, what a great way to get some goodwill, congratulate an incompetent qb who has consistently proven he can't step up and beat good teams right after he shreds a bad team.

Hey, on the list of weird or foolish decisions he's made, this still ranks pretty low.
