NFL Preseason Predictions for Every Team – August 10th
AFC East
Miami Dolphins The Dolphins went 2-2 in Adam Gase’s first NFL preseason as a head coach a year ago but I’m thinking 1-3 is more like it as the foolish Fins host Atlanta and Baltimore and visit Philly and Minnesota. New England Patriots The Pats went 3-1 in the preseason a year ago after going 2-2 in each of their two previous preseason campaigns. I’m expecting another 2-2 scrimmage season out of New England as they beat Jacksonville and Detroit and fall to Houston and the New York Giants.NFL Preseason Week 1 Winning SU Picks
Buffalo Bills With Minnesota, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Detroit on their NFL preseason schedule, I’m thinking 1-3 sounds about right for the rebuilding Bills. New York Jets The Jets went 1-3 in the preseason a year ago, but I’m thinking 0-4 sounds right for this season as the Jets host Tennessee and Philadelphia and visit Detroit and the Giants.AFC West
Kansas City Chiefs The Chiefs went 2-2 last preseason and head coach Andy Reid is just 34-38 in his career in the NFL preseason. With that said, I’m thinking K.C. is looking at a 1-3 scrimmage record as they beat the Niners and lose to Cincy, Seattle and Tennessee. Oakland Raiders Oakland is looking at its third straight 1-3 preseason as they lose to Arizona, Dallas and Seattle while beating the rebuilding Rams. Denver Broncos Denver wins at Chicago and Frisco before losing to Green Bay in Week 3 and finishing with a win at home against Arizona. Los Angeles Chargers The relocated Bolts win all four preseason games at home against Seattle and New Orleans in Weeks 1 and 2 and at the Rams and Niners in Weeks 3 and 4.AFC North
Baltimore Ravens Baltimore went 4-0 last preseason and 4-0 in 2014, but they also went 1-3 in 2015 and I’m thinking they’re looking at another 1-3 scrimmage season this year as they lost at home against Washington and Buffalo while winning in Miami and falling against the Saints in their scrimmage finale. Cleveland Browns The Browns went 0-4 last preseason, but not this time around as they win their opener against New Orleans and take out the Giants in Week 2 before falling at Tampa Bay and closing with a win in Chi-Town! What, what? Pittsburgh Steelers It’s clear that Mike Tomlin cares absolutely nothing about the preseason as Pittsburgh has not won more than one preseason game in each of the last four years. The Steelers win in Week 3 at home against Indy, but that’s it! Cincinnati Bengals Marvin Lewis is 29-28 in the preseason in his career and Cincy had their first losing preseason since 2011 last year. I’m thinking 2-2 sounds about right this preseason as the Bengals beat the Chiefs and Colts and fall to Tampa bay and Washington.
