Predictions Recap

Last week, Farmer posted a 14-2 record, bringing his season total to 24-8. In Week 2, if Jayden Daniels plays and is healthy, he could tilt the game in Washington's favour in a close one. If he's out, the Commanders have precious little. The Cardinals are playing against the 49ers, and early in the year, Arizona's health favours them. The 49ers are missing a ton of talent, though Mac Jones filled in capably for Brock Purdy.

  3. Jets vs. Buccaneers, 10 a.m., NFL Ticket
  4. Buccaneers favored by 6.5 points, over/under 44.5 points
  5. Broncos vs. Chargers, 1:05 p.m., CBS
