The Prophet's Picks

The conglomerate of Disney networks had two NFL products on display last night and both where blowouts wins for the home teams. Buffalo def. Tennessee 7-41 & Philadelphia won against Minnesota 24-7. On my end I swepted M.N.F. predictions going 2-0 in that arena. In week II I went 4-0 in primetime. Overall season record is 17-14-1 & 4-3 in primetime.

Meeting number 205 goes to the Green Bay Packers as they defeated the Chicago Bears last night 10-27. My prediction was G.B. 31-16 CHI. After last night I'm now 2-0 in primetime week II with two games remaining on the schedule tonight. The Packers got the win but looked sloppy in their execution. Now I'm 2-3 in primetime overall early in the season and I'm looking to go 4-3 overall by this time to...

The Chiefs finally defeated Justin Herbert and the Chargers in GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium last night and it wasn't easy not by a long shot. Patrick Mahomes II should've thrown multiple interceptions but he was spared by stone handed defenders & replay reviews. I finally got a primetime game correct and I'm glad to say I'm 1-3 on the early season with 3 more games to be played under the lights...

This is only the 30th matchup between Minnesota and Philadelphia. A matchup in which Philly is undefeated in the postseason 4-0. I'm sure Kirk Cousins and the Vikings will take the regular season though, a 15-10 lead in the series and with this game being on Monday Night how will Jalen Hurts perform at quarterback against a stingy Vikings defense.

Buffalo defeated Tennessee two years in a row and now the Titans have controlled the last two games in this series. Tennessee leads this series 30-19. With that said Buffalo has a very long way to go and if I know the NFL these teams will continue to face off every year as long as they're both postseason teams each year. Hey, it's the NFL.

Justin Fields looks to take Aaron Rodgers and the Packers down in primetime this Sunday. It'll be difficult though because Aaron Rodgers "owns" Da' Bears in more ways than one. The Packers lost in the NFC North division week one while the Bears won their home opener. This will be game number 205 with Green Bay leading the series 103-95-6.

The Raiders lead the Cardinals 6-4 in 10 games played in this series and this Sunday will be episode 11. Derek Carr and DeVante Adams look to let loose on the Cardinals secondary. Kyler Murray and company or just hoping for a win, period.

The Broncos has a 5-3 lead in 8 meetings vs. Houston. This will be only their 9th meeting and both teams are desperate for a win. Last week I took Russell Wilson over Geno Smith and this week Wilson will face off against Davis Mills and Lovie Smith, hmmmm.

The 14th meeting all time between Cincinnati and Dallas and the first meeting since Dallas played the Bengals in Cincinnati during the 2020 pandemic year. Dak Prescott is out for a month at least which will help the Bengals and Joe Burrow come into big D, or little d and light up the Boys secondary like a Christmas tree.

The 48th meeting between Seattle and San Francisco pits Geno Smith against Trey Lance and two stellar defenses against two mediocre offenses. I don't think San Francisco will be very mediocre for long though at all.

Atlanta has won in Los Angeles before but can they win there again? The first visit to Sofi Stadium as the Falcons 0-1 take on the Rams 0-1. Both teams unsuccessful in their attempts to win last week, I can almost assure you in this 81st meeting between these old NFC West rivals the home team will have the immediate advantage.

47 games played between Detroit and Washington over the 103 year history of the NFL. Carson Wentz will once again face off against Jared Goff (statistically speaking) and this is yet another week II matchup where the visiting team is 1-0 and the home team is 0-1. While Detroit is looking for a win, the Commanders are looking for the same.

The Buccaneers haven't beaten the Saints in the regular season (emphasis on regular season) since Tommy terrific took the reins as the starter. New Orleans will have their home opener in the division after coming back to defeat Atlanta in week one. In the 62nd meeting between these NFC South rivals will Brady and his Buccs finally win? (In the regular season)

28 games played between New York and Cleveland and this will be the 29th time. Cleveland is 1-0 and giddy for their home opener while the Jets are scratching their heads after losing their home opener last week against Baltimore. Can the Jets rebound and win on the road or will they fly back to New York 0-2?

The AFC South is winless going i to week two. And in the 43rd meeting between these division rivals someone is coming out 0-2 and searching for answers. It'll be Trevor Lawrence vs. Matt Ryan for the statistical quarterback matchup and a young hungry Jags defense looking to make Matt Ryan look like he did in week one.

The 34th meeting between New England and Pittsburgh will not have a guy named Brady or Roethlisberger tossing the rock around the yard this Sunday. Pittsburgh is without T.J. Watt and New England is without a road win to start the season. Will that be the theme for New England for week three.

The Ravens seek to avenge the very embarrassing loss to the Dolphins last season in primetime. This will be the 18th meeting between the franchises as Tua looks to light up the score board against a Ravens defense ranked in the top 5 already.

The 13th meeting between the Giants and Panthers places Baker Mayfield against Daniel Jones and Ben Macadoo against his old team he used to lead. Carolina lost at home last week and New York won on the road, Carolina also lost last year's meeting to the Giants. Panthers lead the series 7-5 including one postseason game.

The 125th meeting between these AFC West rivals will happen how they're season meeting ended in 2021. On Thursday Night. The Chiefs and the Chargers won their week one game and are both undefeated in this first meeting of the season.

Week one ended last night with a loud quaking thud for me as the Seahawks won 17-16 against the Broncos. The only way Russell Wilson can get any payback is next season if this game is that extra 17th game. Or if these two teams make it back to the Super Bowl. Seattle's defense dominated the night, waking up Denver's defense but it wasn't enough. I'm 7-8-1 after week one and in primetime 0-3.

The Buccaneers won the 21st all time meeting last night against the Cowboys to begin NFL on Sunday Night. Dak Prescott left with an injury that requires surgery and Brady won convincingly with the help of a powerful rushing attack and a championship defensive performance. Tampa's in good hands under Todd Bowles.

I was wrong and Buffalo now leads this series all time 9-5 in 14 total games. Thank God that wasn't a Super Bowl or I'd be 2-2 in predictions there. I start the season 0-1 & a lot of room for error starting tomorrow with all the 12:00 p.m. central games. Will it be an under .500 week one for me or barely breaking 1 game over .500? We'll see, stay tuned!

The 57th meeting between these former AFC West foes comes in primetime, on Monday Night Football. Russell Wilson immediately returns to his old stomping grounds in the navy blue and orange. The Seahawks have the Broncos former 3rd round draft pick at quarterback in Drew Lock. Expected to be the guy he was replaced by Russell Wilson this past spring. Geno Smith will start however for Seattle not Lo...

Just as the 2021 season began for Dallas and Tampa, the 2022 season begins. In week 1 pitted against one another in primetime on NBC. Small difference is Tom Brady and his Buccaneers will travel to Irving Texas to face a rejuvenated Dak Prescott and his Cowboys in the 21st meeting in this series. A series lead by Dallas 15-5.

So Aaron Rodgers and the Packers begin the season on the road against Minnesota for the 2nd time in 3 seasons. (2020), Kirk Cousins and new head coach Kevin O'Connell will welcome the Packers with a closed fist. This Vikings coaching staff has Super Bowl LVI coaches on it's staff. (Rams LVII 2/13/2022) and they're bringing a Rams championship mentality to the twin cities.
