Some interesting trends here. Everyone loves Buffalo, everyone picks Philly to win the NFC East, everyone picks the Colts to win the AFC South, and NOBODY but me picks the Kansas City Chiefs to win their division. Apparently, our staff has forgotten about the existence of Patrick Mahomes. No matter what happens, it is so great to be back for another exciting NFL season.
