Ravens-Chiefs came to a toe, Week 1 bold predictions & will Justin Herbert be mediocre? | Inside Coverage

Subscribe to Inside Coverage

Jason Fitz and Frank Schwab dive deep into the Baltimore Ravens’ narrow loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the first Thursday Night Football game of the season. Does Lamar Jackson’s offensive line still need to work, or is the Chiefs defense just *that* good?

The two make some superlative predictions early on for the NFL season, from the “Kirk Cousins ​​Award” for mediocrity to the “Barry Sanders Award” for the player charged with carrying his bad team (I’m looking at you, Raiders).

Later, Fitz & Frank make their bold predictions for the remaining games in Week 1, including Jordan Love getting back on track against Philadelphia, the Carolina Panthers starting 1-0 against the New Orleans Saints and, against all odds, a solid season for Sam Darnold and the Minnesota Vikings.
