It’s week 15! He is now back in position to play the full 16 games remaining in the season. This week we wrote a lot about some of the candidates. From Greg Bishop’s take on how Patrick Mahomes is staying calm with Gilberto Manzano on the potential rift within the Philadelphia Eagles. We also have new mock drafts for teams on the other side of the standings. Plus, check out Connor Orr on Football Sneaks, Matt Barderame’s latest quarterback rankings, and Mitch Goldich’s week as a member of the Minnesota Vikings’ grounds crew.
Looking ahead to this week’s games, the matchup everyone will be watching is a preview of the potential Super Bowl between the Buffalo Bills and Detroit Lions. Our pick teams are split 4-2 in favor of Detroit. We are evenly split in the Battle of Pennsylvania, and the majority of our crew expects the Miami Dolphins to pull off an upset on the road against the Houston Texans.
