Every year, I make a bet with Autumn Wind about who's team will win more games.  I like our chances this year, and I pick us to win 9 games,
and the Raiders will win 7.  I'm sick of getting caught in the delusional cycle, though, especially with Micah Parsons gone.  Kenny Clark might
be a great fit in the middle of the defensive line, but we'll be lucky to make the playoffs.  A few years ago, they were calling our division
the "NFC Least" because everyone sucked.  It's one of the best, now, and I think there's too much competition.  I'm still hopeful, but damn!
We missed out on Saquon Barkley last year!  And Derrick Henry!  Pay these guys what they deserve!  And don't dilly dally until the last minute
to sign players!  Micah would've signed for $38 million a year if he was paid right when he was eligible for an extension!  Geez!

Good luck, guy!

I have us at 10 wins, and you at 6 ...

Yeah, that was a tough loss, and there's no such thing as moral victories.  We were going toe to toe with them most the game.  The fumble in the 3rd quarter was the turning point.  And who knows what would've happened if the game wasn't delayed?  Lamb is gonna get blamed for dropped passes, but couple of those were difficult to make.

Hey, that wasn't such a bad game.  I don't see you going far in the playoffs without Parsons, though.  I could be wrong.  I wanted to chip in my predictions since you & Autumn Wind already did.

Rams will go 11 - 6, second round of playoffs (at least)
Raiders will go 9 - 8 and
Cowboys will go 9 - 8

Back to back nights of team collapse.  Last night, it was the Ravens.
Tonight, it was the Bears.  Overall, it was a good week 1, except that
the Cowboys lost.  It will get better.
