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.
