1. Chargers - QB KaShawn Leroy

The Chargers need a QB and they need one badly. They traded up to #1 to secure one I'm sure. 

KaShawn Leroy from  Kansas should come off the board as the #1 pick this draft. He is heading a less than stellar QB class.

2. Packers - RB Derrick Todman

Green Bay has no RB so this is an easy call. They will take Derrick Todman from Michigan. Todman has decent size and great running times. Would be a necessary piece to upgrade their offense.

3. Jaguars -  CB Forrest Knight

Sassy Ramsey needs help at CB. Overall the Jags have a solid team but adding another capable CB to the team could translate to more wins in JVille. Look for the Jags to take a chance on wildcard CB, Forrest Knight. He has 1st round projections but with skipping the combine it'll be an unknown come draft day. 

4. Bears - RE Terrell Hawkins

The Bears have quite a few holes on the roster : QB, WR, LG, RE, and SS. This pleases me quite a bit. It's tough to say which direction the Bears will go but he always has a good defense so I think that is where he will focus with this pick. Hawkins from Auburn will be a nice addition to a usually stout defense. He will start from Day 1. 

5. Ravens - LE Kenan Drake

Baltimore could go one of 2 ways here, OL or DL. I imagine they won't pass up on starter on the DL with a top 5 pick. Drake didn't set the combine on fire but has great attributes to help take some pressure off the offense in Baltimore. Ravens will more than likely look to build up the defense here. 

6. Saints - ROLB Shannon Lambert

Keeping with the defensive theme in the top 10. Saints are OLD...across the board just straight up nursing home old. Their LB core is bad. They could use some youth interjected into the LB position and have a solid defense. Some good pieces on the backend currently in Nola already. 

7. Lions - Who knows. Team sucks. 

8. Bengals - C Peyton Winslow

The Bengals are absolutely loaded at every position except OL. You can pick any position and draft for an upgrade. It all starts at Center for most NFL offenses so it makes sense for Cincy to start with the best one in the draft. 

9. Seahawks - LT Isaiah Boley

Seattle may or may not even show up to the draft according to some reports from the front office. IF they do, they need to fix that OL badly. Boley is projected in the 1st round and will be an immediate starter from day 1 here. 

10. Chiefs - C Raymond Torrence

The Chiefs have 1 OL on the roster so I think it's safe to say they will be drafting OL this draft. A top 10 pick should allow them to secure a 1st round projected Center here to boost that OL. 

11. Colts - DT Geoff Howe

12. Steelers (via Eagles) - RE Marquise Griffin

13. Buccaneers - RT Raphael Perry

14. Falcons -  LE Kenyon Tyson

15. Redskins - LE Kevin Hooks

16. Titans - LG Norman Tepper

17. Bills (via Cardinals) - RE Jamal Harrison

18. Browns - DT Jason Gibson

19. Dolphins - DT Jeremiah Hendricks

20. Rams - C Ron Beckett

21. Raiders - MLB Denard Fields

22. Vikings (via Giants) - RE Will Mckie

23. Steelers - ROLB Denard Bryan

24. Panthers - RE Stephon Session

25. Bills - WR Darnell Wright 

26. Lions (via Patriots) -  ??

27. Ravens (via Lions) - DT Matt Brown

28. Bears - SS Leron Oglesby

29. 49ers - FS Antoine Preston

30. Texans - DT Darnell Brothers

31. Broncos - ROLB Ben Peterson

32. Seahawks (via Cowboys) - FS Keith Harris

Big expectations for Arizona coming into Season 3 of the cycle but so far those haven't been realized.

The first L of the season came during the Pre-Season when starting QB Josh Rosen suffered from a broken bone and was out for 8 weeks. The Cardianls are hopeful he will be able to return this week in a very important NFC game with Atlanta. TE Ricky Seals Jones has also been out the first 4 weeks of the season with a broken rib. He had developed into a very good threat at TE last season.

To start the season Arizona was forced to be on AP while out of town and lost a very winnable game against division rival Seattle, 34-27.

Week 2 saw the Cardinals bounce back and secure a win over much improved SF 49ers team, 23-7 and move to 1-1. 

Heading into week 3 against one of the top CPU talent teams in Madden, LA Rams, Coach Ark knew it would be a tough challenge but Arizona welcomed the oppurtunity. Unfortunately things didn't turn out well for the Cardinals as backup QB Jacoby Brissett had a tough day throwing 3 INTs and losing 30-16. 

An interesting stretch for Arizona over the next 5 weeks will tell a lot about the season the Cards will have. 

Falcons

@Rams

@Bears

Giants

@Seahawks

We will take a quick look at the teams in each division, give them a pretender or contender grade, and a brief reason why. 

*DISCLAIMER - IF  YOU ARE EASILY TRIGGERED DO NOT READ PAST THIS POINT*

AFC North 

Cleveland Browns - Contender. He never really has any competetion in his own division which is most likely from people running from him but man the AFC North sucks....but B is almost always top dog in any division. 

Baltimore Ravens - Pretender. Good CPU defense but trash ass user that never allows the autopilot defense reach its potential. As long as this guy is in Baltimore, they will be a dumpster fire.

Cincinnati Bengals - Pretender. Andy is good dude and has a surprise win every once in a while but just not on the level of the elites.

Pittsburgh Steelers - Pretender. Shouldn't waste time with a why.....you know what I'm stop. 

AFC West

LA Chargers - Contender. This is the only good team in LA sadly but Mike has a good squad that could push for a title IF he can develop some clutch genes.

Oakland Raiders - Pretender. Kale is mah homie but Madden ain't important to him so Oakland won't thrive. IF he decides to take it serious he would push for AFC title games.

Denver Broncos - Pretender. Turk has defense down, unfortunately you need to be able to score more than 10 pts a game in this league to be succesful.

Kansas City Chiefs - Contender. Codie has all the pieces but he doesn't have "it". That'll make sense for those that know. Possibly he gets out of the way of himself and lets CPU dominate but I'm skeptical. 

AFC East

Buffalo Bills - Contender. LB always has new stuff working on both sides of the ball and is a pain in the ass to play against. Mr Hot Route himself will drive you insane with his playstyle.

New England Patriots - Contender. Asstin has a good team and his un-sim playing always makes for a diffcult game. As long as he is allowed to do as he pleases, NE will be an issue in the AFC.

New York Jets - Pretender. Steps could cause trouble in this division but his MO is to play a few weeks then shut it down so I expect more of this tbh. If I'm wrong, the Jets could be a wild card in the AFC.

Miami Dolphis - Pretender. Gomes claims the Dolphins are a 5 season build team, well bad news this league doesn't make it to season 5 so Miami will likely miss playoffs again and Gomes will claim he has to try less, or more less than the last time he tried less....idk something like that.

AFC South 

Houston Texans - Contender. Chabe went all the way to SB in Season 2 and I wouldn't be surprised if he was able to do it again in Season 3. Not many know this but the ability of Chabe to control 2 teams in the SFL will always allow him to be top dog.

Tennessee Titans - Pretender. I think this is Chabe as well, which also makes sense. I'm borderline salty I just realized he has positioned himself to be in same divsion. I have majorly underestimated Chabe's mental make-up. Well done Chabe, well done.

Indianapolis Colts - Pretender. The hardest thing about this team is trying to spell Indianapolis correctly. I'm not even sure who has this team now, nor do I care. Non factor.

Jacksonville Jaguars - Pretender. Bando always does the least with the most. If this was a rap battle then he would definitely, ok....nvm he wouldn't win that one either.

NFC West

Arizona Cardinals - TBD.  I never speak on myself and won't start now.

LA Rams - Contender. Crim has one of the best teams in Madden and it isn't even close. He has yet to do anything with it and time is running out. What was once thought as a good user in the SFL will quickly turn into a below average user if he can't at least win an NFC West title.

Seattle Seahawks - Pretender. The ginger ninja has employed previous tactics of the "Imma lose on purpose when I really am just poo". I've sadly seen this used many times while I've been in SFL. Matt had a good season one time that I remember, maybe he can get Quan to play for him again like that season.

SF 49ers - Pretender. Absolutely hate playing Spawn. If you win, you were supposed to and if you lose, well.....go ask Codie how that feels.

NFC South

Atlanta Falcons - Contender. Say what you want, Quan is always a threat to win. Lately he has benefited from a terrible, terrible division....wait a minute...just like the Browns, I don't believe he has ever had a team worth a plug nickel in his division.

Carolina Panthers - Pretender. Marv G back in the league after making 2 multi million dollar deals. I'm just glad he has time for SFL again.

Tampa Bay Bucs - Pretender. Ed is just as likely to win a game  as he is to get 12 players suspended for breaking all the same rules that Austin does(but never gets punished)

New Orleans Saints - Pretender. Julian is apparently not in JR High and I don't think he is a fan of White Boy Rick now. Anyway he has a good team but still not on the level of the big boys yets. 

NFC East

Philadelphia Eagles - Contender. Run over a lot of good teams and user last cycle, with the best team in madden, but it does take skill to pull it off. Look for a repeat in the best division in SFL.

Dallas Cowboys - Contender. Zach will always be tough in regular season and this might be the year he gets it done in playoffs. When he is on, he is tough as anyone in the league. If he can get over the playoff issue, the Boys could be back.

Washington Redskins - Contender. AC is overrated IMO but the dude wins against almost everyone (not me). I used to think he was trash because I typically always won but I'm starting to believe in all the hype that people say about his early days in Madden.

New York Giants - Pretender. Well I guess you can't have 4 heavyweights in one divison so tough break for Max and the Giants. They will get beat like a red headed step child again this season and Max will be on AP by Week 10.

NFC North

Chicago Bears - Contender. Clint always has good teams and always win games. Not sure what his hang up is here as he doesn't ever really get close to the SB. He says he wins many SB's in other leagues....kind of makes me want to play in those leagues.....

Minnesota Vikings - Contender. Jason was known as "King of the North" but I feel like Clint has taken that title from him....you never know though, Minny has all the pieces in place and Jason's play style fits nicely there but I will always root against Minnesota after they cost me DJ and a shot at a SB. Eat a shit sandwhich Minnesota.

Green Bay Packers - Pretender. Bryce used to be one of the top dogs in SFL when he had Philadelphia.....maybe it's just having the Eagles?? Who knows but what I do know is Bryce is a shell of his former self. Went from winning a SB to being a gimmie win in one year. But bless him for his chicken because that is one of the great things on this Earth. 

Detroit Lions - Pretender. At the time of press the Lions owner isn't even known.....if that doesn't spell pretender than I don't know what does. Uhhh well since I don't know who has the Lions aka Stafford's Arm, I can't speak on how many wins they give Clint and Jason, ok I will speak on it. 4, the number is 2 wins each. 

As always, comments and feedback are appreciated. 

Fresh off a 2nd round playoffs exit last season Arizona is looking to repeat as NFC West Champs and push for the SFL Super Bowl. With the draft and big FA push, let's take a look at some of the new faces in Arizona.

In the latest SFL draft Arizona was able to land their future MLB in the 1st round at 28th overall.

6'1 238 LB from LSU - Noah Lay - Decent speed, agility and tackling. Will user him and allow built up speed LB's Reddick and Bucannon roam freely.

In the 4th rd Arizona was able to select a 75 ovr TE in Morgan Hadnot from Minnesota. Not a burner but sure handed and will be a good check down and short yardage TE.

In Free Agency once again Arizona was able to pick up a CB, this year it was Delvin Breaux. A 30 year old ver with 90 speed and average man/zone ratings. He will add depth and be able to play in Dime situations. 

The Cardinals are looking forward to a succesful Season 3 in the SFL. All the talent on offense is young, the defense is fast, and the special teams will continue to be special. Rumor is Seattle and the over hyped Los Angeles Rams will give better challenge this season but only time will tell.

**This new segment covering the underground betting scene in the SFL will shed some light on a lesser known part of football. For those that don't know Vegas gives odds for each game and an Over/Under. The - means favorite while the + means underdog. For example, Game 13, Oakland is favored by 5 points over Miami. The over/under is the TOTAL amount of points scored between both teams, which is set at 37. You can look at this information and get a guess at the CPU simulation that delivered these numbers. Based off the Vegas lines, they are projecting a 21-16 type of game that Oakland wins.**

For this segment each week we will give our favorite play of the week, underdog play of the week, and the over/under play of the week. 

1. The FAVORITE - Cleveland -3

Browns -3 over the Jets. Cleveland wins this game by 10+ points in our opinion. If you like money, take out loans, max out credit cards, do whatever you can to get AS MUCH MONEY AS POSSIBLE and bet on Cleveland -3.

2. The UNDERDOG - Carolina +9

We strive to bring you great picks but this one is a HUGE mismatch and Vegas has the wrong team favored. Panthers +9 against Cincy. The game is at home for Carolina. We think this is a big over-reaction from the betting market after Carolina was demolished by Atlanta. Take Carolina +9 and put some $$$ on that moneyline as well. Carolina wins straight up.

3. The OVER/UNDER - Pats vs Lions OVER 45

Both teams like to throw the ball and score. Detroit avgs 24 ppg and NE avgs 18 ppg. NE had a rough start but the offense should start picking it up. Detroit hits their avg but NE gets 28 or so. This one should hit 50+ with ease.

So there you have it, SFL's first betting write-up. Drop a comment and let me know who you like based on the SFL Sportsbook.

The Arizona Cardinals fell to 1-1 with the gut wrenching loss to division rival LA Rams 23-18.

In a game that saw Arizona score with 38 seconds left to take a 18-17 lead over the Rams, quickly changed 2 plays later when Todd Gurley ripped off a 30+ yard run to take the lead back with only 13 seconds left. "Terrible late game management on our part, said Coach White Boy Rick. We were honestly so happy to score a rushing TD that we forgot how to play defense."

Josh Rosen struggled in the beginning throwing 4 picks, and all 4 went to user LB Mark Barron. "1 throw was my fault, said Rosen, but the other 3 was some Madden bullshit, Can I say bullshit on here??.....ok yea it was definitely some bullshit."

Veteran Sam Bradford came in and shredded the Rams defense but it was to little to late as the Rams were already gifted 17 points from the 4 turnovers.

Rumors are there could possibly be some QB controversy in AZ land.....we shall see. 

The Arizona Cardinals got the season started off on a good note last night, defeating the Washington Redskins 19-16 in overtime. It was an ugly game on both sides of the ball for Arizona but a lot of the issue was from Washington, who played a good game. 

"We didn't have our full offense installed and it showed, said  Head Coach White Boy Rick. The leash was to short on Rookie QB Josh Rosen but we will let him have more freedom in Week 2."

The win over AC pushed the all time series record to #7-2.

Stats were unavailble at time of press.

Week 2 Arizona will travel to the SFL favorite LA Rams. Who many of claimed are SB locks and have an AP defense.

Last week we had Tenneesse Titans owner on the show and this week we decided to keep it in the AFC South. Indianapolis Colts owner, Clint, aka CBeastwood joins us this week. 

Yall know the drill, 7 questions, and it's all real talk!!!!

Q1. Who is your biggest SFL rival and why?

Cllint - "You want real answers, right? I guess it's Codie since he is talking again, and he is the only guy who has consistently beat me. I don't put stock in any rival, I try and beat everyone equally.....and a pissed off Codie is hilarious."

Q2. What is the biggest strength of your Madden game?

Clint - "My defense. Give me a good defense and I will take souls, guaranteed."

Q3. You are the SFL commish for a day, what changes do you  make?

Clint - "Get some feelers on what people would change if they could what they like. Always try and grow with the newest edition of the game....don't stay stagnant. The game is broken on All Pro...it's known.....and some guys exploit it........Also when asked in chat, don't play dumb and not resond."

Q4. You have a chance to go on a date with any woman, pretend you're single and don't know your wife.....who would it be?

Clint - "Dang man, try to get me in trouble....like now or any time?? Heather Locklear in her prime.....Maybe the most beautiful human I've ever seen.

Q5. Why do people love to hate on your Madden skills so much??

Clint - "Great question.....It only started when I ran through guys in the playoffs to make the Superbowl. They call out like I run only outs and corners but I can label every single player the same way....its funny to me."

"I promise this, if this was ANY of the all Madden sim leagues, I'd destroy everyone. I've gone to 4 superbowls this Madden alone in my other leagues."

Q6.  Who is the biggest cheese in the league and who is the most overrated player in SFL??

Clint - "Most overrated is Bryce. Dude's game is AVERAGE AT BEST. Call out how he beat me all you want...change him to the Colts and he is nothing.

"Biggest cheese depends on what type......Deep bombs it's B and Q......Under routes it's Chan and Gabe......But hey I guess do what works in a broken All Pro.

"To add to this, I hate playing LB the most. He makes great adjustments consistently."

Q7. You go into a bar for a fight and have to bring 3 people from SFL with you.....who is it and why??

Clint - "Shoot......Steps, he has military experience.......Kale because he would murder someone from all his pent up rage from having so many kids.........and Codie...always need cannon fodder."

(KANYE VOICE........HOLD UP WAIT A MINUTE....YALL THOUGHT I WAS FINISHED)

Clint had some finally thoughts and decided to give him his own segement called, Clint's Final Thoughts. 

"I have to call out Q. He worries about my game more than I do....he will deny it but the chat doesn't lie.

"The Jets dude comes in saying stuff about me out of nowhwere and then just disappears."

"Legit, best user for understanding the game is LB."

Basically going to interview various people around the SFL and get to hear from the heartbeat of the SFL, the userbase!!!

This week we have Tennessee Titan owner, Echo xCrysis, aka Codie, aka Fast Crew Alpha.

Q1. How would you rate your season so far?

Codie - "On a scale of 1-10, probably a 4. Won a big game against Clint, feel like I should've split with Chan this season. Disappointed in myself on how that went down and a complete failure losing to Juilian. I've gotta be better than that."

Q2. What do you fee like you've improved on the most this current season of Madden?

Codie- "By far defense. I've had a top 10 defense just about every year this cycle."

Q3. Who is your biggest rival in the SFL and why?

Codie - "I've gotta keep it in the divison, I'd say Clint is my biggest rival just because we always have crazy games. I want a rivalry to be with Chan but we can't have a rivalry if I can't win agaisnt him. Winning against Chan is a goal of mine."

Q4. If you were SFL commish for the day, what changes would you make?

Codie - "I'd probably take out playmaker. It's not a huge issue but I feel like it can be an exploit at times. I'd also ask everyone in the league to bring ideas out just to get a better feel of how everyone in the league feels."

Q5. It's World War 3....you're in a foxhole and can only have one friend in there to help you live or die. Which member of the Fast Crew is it, and why?

Codie - "Austin, year we'd fight about how we survive but dude can hold his own and I trust him to have my back. And if shit got to the point we were fucked, he's 6'5, best human shield you can find."

Q6. Who's the best player in the SFL and why?

Codie - "Best player goes to Q. He's got a lot of experiences in Madden franchies and he's got the rings to prove it. But I think the SFL has a lot of good teams in it. I'd say hes' got about 14 other teams that can compete with him."

Q7. What player is the biggest Cheese ball? What player isn't as good as everyone makes them out to be?

Codie - "I honestly believe Chan has replaced Gomes. This season Chan has been on another level of cheese. He already swept me this season, Chan will be difficult to stop this year."

"Player that isn't that good is Gambler, he's trash and I look forward to our game next week."

Well there you have it folks, the fastest 7 questions in sports!!!!!

With the 2019 SFL season winding down, I decided to start a new end of the year tradition and honor some various users in the league. Some of these are real, some are slander.....they are not in order.

Enjoy.

LAC had the worst season in the history of GamblerLife's reign in Charger land at 6-10. The season was a total disappointment in all areas. The front office is preaching focus and preparation for the 2020 season.

The upsetting part is it might have been the last season that star DE Melvin Ingram puts on the uniform and starts for the Chargers. He's been a nightmare for AFC teams for many SFL seasons. If he's done, he will be sorely missed!!

The great news is the Chargers will have the #12 pick in the upcoming SFL draft. They've never had the oppurtunity to to secure a player this high in the draft. "We are excited to add another piece of the puzzle to this LAC team, said Coach Gambler. We don't know exactly where we are going yet."

Stay tuned for a newly focused LAC team in 2020. We READY.

AFC Playoff Projections

The LA Chargers have found their backs against the wall early in this season. Sitting at 1-4 the Chargers knew they had to fight back or it was going to be a long season. The schedule is loaded this season as well, the last 2 SB champs, NFC playoff teams, and division leaders in the AFC, not to mention the surprise of the SFL, the undefeated KC Chiefs. "We sat down and looked at who we were playing and realized we've played some good teams this year, said Gambler.  We don't accept losses but it helps to reflect on the situation. We don't need to panic, just keep rowing our boat."

The Chargers took those words of wisdom into last night's big division game with the undefeated Oakland Raiders and took them to the woodshed 41-17. "I won't lie, it was a big win for us. We probably have the 2 best teams in the AFC in our own division this season," said Coach Gambler.

It was a 17-17 at the half and with the Chargers getting the ball to start the 2H, they scored 24 unanswered points to get the road win. "It was the first game we didn't lose the turnover battle all season, said Gambler. So everyone knows what our problem is. If we can just stay even in the turnover battle, we can have a lot of success."

On offense :

- QB Bryant Graddy threw for 427 yards and added 22 on the ground

- RB Melvin Gordon ran for 65 yards on 13 carries and 2 TDs

- WR Tyrell Williams had 2 recs for 93 yards and 1 TD

On defense :

- The Goon Squad was back healthy for the first full game this season, they totaled 7.5 sacks. Veteran Melvin Ingram responsible for 4

-  Rookie CB LaMarcus Leroy had his first multiple INT game with 2

- Several Chargers LBs and SS had big games shutting down the Oakland rushing attack

LAC had the most bizarre ending to a game most have ever seen in Madden last week to the Jacksonville Jags. The loss puts the Chargers at 1-3. With a week 5 showdown against division rival Kansas City waiting, this is a must win. 

"We will see what our guys are made of this week, said Coach Gambler. We can sit around and feel sorry for ourselves or we can go out and shock the SFL and get a W over the undefeated KC Chiefs."

Reports are a possible Friday afternoon game between these 2 teams. 

1. Houston Texans - Chan is the defending SB champ and he beat the LAC like a drum in week 1. He has earned the #1 spot. Looks like Chan has built another dynasty in the AFC South and the SFL.

2. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Steps gets his highest ranking ever by defeating ATL in OT in week 1. I only caught the end of the game but Steps team looked like the real deal. This doesn't appear to be a fluke win. TB made a statement. 

3. Buffalo Bills - LB is my darkhorse for a SB this season. I do think he wins the super competitive AFC East and catapults to a SB run. No clue on his team besides the draft but I know he knows how to build a team and I expect big things in season 3 here.

4. Atlanta Falcons - Q is almost always #1 or #2, is the guard changing in the NFC? Probably not but it's good to see parity in the division that he has dominated for many seasons. For the first time in a long time, Q is chasing someone in the NFC. Should be an exciting season down there.

5. New York Jets - Jets owner showed up in a big way last season before losing in the AFC Championship. He has the skills to repeat as AFC East champs and push for another SB contention. AFC E is loaded however so another really interesting conference to watch.

6. Seattle Seahawks - Matt starts the year in the top 10 but according to some inside info, I don't expect him to finish the season here. Autopilot defense makes things easy in Seattle, at least for one more season.

7. Cincinnati Bengals - The Bengals shocked the SFL last season by defeating SFL legend B, 3 times and claiming the AFC North title. I was skeptical at first but now I believe in the Bengals. Seems he has B's number and I expect another AFCN title for Cincy.

8. Dallas Cowboys - Zach jumped over the NFC East and started running things in his first season. The Cowboys have a ton of talent and it'll be interesting to see how the Zach vs Bryce series unfolds in 2019.

9. Cleveland Browns - B struggled last season and didn't make the SB for the first time in a while. It's been a tough read for me on the Browns as I've made the Browns my pre-season SB winner last 2 seasons and was wrong both times. This will prolly be the season since I'm not high on the Browns. He's gotta get over the mental hump of the Bengals now though.

10. Indianapolis Colts - Clint will turn some heads in the 2019 season, I'm calling it now. The Colts have better talent than last season and it should make for a really exciting AFC South race with Hou, Indy, and Tenn all going at it. 

11. Philadelphia Eagles - If Bryce plays his games this season, which he said he will, he will contend for a top 10 spot.

12. Oakland Raiders - Mike lived up to his ranking last season and I expect more of the same from Oak town. Lots of talent on that roster.

13. Minnesota Vikings - Jason showed up and showed out Week 1 with a big win over division rival GB. He has the leg up on Turk now.

14. New England Patriots - Austin is in the ultra competitive AFC East or he would be a lot higher. I think the other teams have caught up to what he does and that's the difference here. 

15. Kansas City Chiefs - A lot of hype from his fellow admins. He did destroy Detroit Wee 1 so it'll be interesting to see which AC shows up, or it's another season of excuses.

16. Green Bay Packers - Turk feel Week 1 in a game I thought he would win. Already a game down in the div is not a good thing but lots of talent and skill in GB to make a push.

17. Los Angeles Rams - JD had his breakout year last season before narrowingly missing the playoffs (you're welcome). I do think his plan of getting rid of Goff could backfire as the season goes though. We shall see.

18. Tennessee Titans - Codie was a top 10 player in the 1H of the SFL last year and then he slowly fell apart. Keeping him low for now until I see how he shows up. 

19. Denver Broncos - Rizzy Rob has the QB to sling the rock all over the place. The same question as last season was his defense. They have only gotten older. 

20. New Orleans Saints - WBS Skkkwkwwaaadddd. Hoping he gets his shit together because 50% of the WBS is hot garbage. 

21. Arizona Cardinals - This guy is my darkhorse pick for the NFC West champ. Keep a close eye on this team. 

22. Carolina Panthers - Crim is poised to make some moves this season and potentially cause some ripples in the NFC South pool. 

23. New York Giants - Gabe is Gabe. Really good talent but don't think he really cares about the SFL honestly. 

24. Chicago Bears - Max could surprise some people this season with the compliment to Love that he has now. 

25. Baltimore Ravens - Goins will play 3rd fiddle in this division again this season. The hate he has for Cincy makes those games must watch though. 

26. Miami Dolphins - Andy shook back last season and improved greatly in the SFL. If he continues to do it again this season he will be formidable. 

27. Washington Redskins - New guy coming into the league. He has some good skills and will be a good addition for the NFC East. 

28. Jacksonville Jaguars - Tons of talent down in FL. I wonder when Bando will wake up and use it.

29. San Francisco 49ers - Spawn snuck up on some people last season and I expect more of the same here. Stay woke when playing the 49ers.

30. Detroit Lions - Julian promised highlight videos, didn't deliver. Promised activity, didn't deliver. Not even gonna ask for wins at this point.

31. Pittsburgh Steelers - Team really doesn't even have a pulse anymore. Kinda sad honestly. 

32. Los Angeles Chargers - They aint shit.
