1. Week 7 Takeaways
-Me: House cleanings await the Bears and Broncos
-Hal: Bengals with statement win, Gruden might have been holding the Raiders back all along, Kyle Pitts and Ja’Marr Chase are stars in the making
2. Truth or Exaggeration
-NO team should trade for Deshaun Watson until his legal issues are resolved
-The Panthers would be a MUCH better destination for Deshaun Watson than the Dolphins
-Albeit with a 17-game caveat, Kyle Pitts will break the all-time rookie receiving yardage record for tight ends, which was set by Mike Ditka in 1961 with 1,076
-Ja’Marr Chase is already making an excellent argument to be considered a top-five WR in the NFL
-Should the Raiders make the playoffs, they should HIGHLY consider promoting interim head coach Rich Bisaccia to full-time head coach
-Even though they are still yet to win a game this season, the Lions are absolutely headed in the right direction under Dan Campbell
-D’Ernest Johnson is going to permanently force his way into the Browns RB rotation over these next several weeks, making it a three-headed monster once Kareem Hunt gets healthy
3. Packers at Cardinals Preview
-How do the Packers attack the Cardinals through the air minus Davante Adams, Allen Lazard AND Marquez Valdes-Scantling?
-After seeing Kyler Murray take quite a pounding against the Texans, how should the Cardinals protect him better (other than better OL play) on a short week?
-Key matchups and picks
4. Cowboys at Vikings Preview
-Is this Vikings secondary significantly less fearsome than it has been in recent years and thus extremely vulnerable if the front four can’t get to Dak Prescott?
-Even with Dalvin Cook fully healthy, should the Vikings still give around 25-33% of the touches to Alexander Mattison?
-Key matchups and picks
5. Picks for all other Week 8 Games
-49ers at Bears
-Eagles at Lions
-Panthers at Falcons
-Dolphins at Bills
-Bengals at Jets
-Steelers at Browns
-Titans at Colts
-Rams at Texans
-Patriots at Chargers
-Jaguars at Seahawks
-Washington at Broncos
-Bucs at Saints
-Giants at Chiefs
6. Bold Predictions
-Hal: Lions win in OT on a blocked punt return for a TD
-DKrom: Aaron Rodgers throws for at least 350 yards and 4 TD’s, 150 of those yards and 3 of those TD’s to Randall Cobb
7. Challenge Flags
-DKrom: Patrick Mahomes….don’t go for the home run all the time
-Hal: Bengals, Rams, Bills….do NOT overlook your opponents, no matter how inferior they are
