The NFL is back! And so is Hooked On Sports' weekly NFL preview show, where John Flynn makes his picks and predictions against the spread for the upcoming week of games in the NFL. And there are some good games out there this week. Can the Tampa Bay Buccaneers begin their Super Bowl title defense with a victory over Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday night? In a potential playoff preview, can the Cleveland Browns go into Kansas City and take down the two-time defending AFC Champion Chiefs? And how will Mac Jones do in his NFL debut as his New England Patriots host Tua Tagovailoa and the Miami Dolphins in a showdown of former Alabama QB's?
But before John gets into his picks, he discusses two topics that could be huge storylines in the NFL in 2021: The strength of the NFC West, and the invaluability of a strong offensive line with stadiums back to full capacity.
Last year's records with the picks: Straight Up: 185-83-1, Against the Spread: 133-129-7
