Opening night is a great time to share season-long predictions! Some familiar faces here and some surprises. It all comes down to the Lions surprising the Chiefs in the Super Bowl! Let me know what you think and enjoy the season, it'll be over before you know it!

@NFL_DovKleiman Imagine being a Washington fan and knowing not only that you had the worst defense for TDs allowed the past 5 seasons but each season you had a former defensive coordinator as your head coach?!?! Hate when that happens...
Commanders overhauling the defense in free agency
free agency signings in Washington:
EDGE Charles Omenihu
EDGE Odafe Oweh
EDGE K'Lavon Chaisson
DT Tim Settle
LB Leo Chenal
CB Amik Robertson
S Nick Cross
TE Chig Okonkwo
Former Chargers DE Odafe Oweh reached agreement today on a four-year, $100 million deal including $68 million guaranteed with the Washington Commanders, per @DavidMulugheta and Andre Odom of Athletes First.
Commanders Pro Bowl Lt Laremy Tunsil reached agreement on a 2-year, $60.2M contract extension with Washington, per his business manager Laolu Sanni of Divine Tree.
There are $61.5M in guarantees, including the biggest signing bonus for an offensive lineman at $32.5M. Tunsil was the NFL's 1st $20M per year offensive lineman. He was the league's 1st $25M per year offensive lineman and now the first $30M offensive lineman.
@grantpaulsen How do these sorts of things come up during the course of the second season and not the interview process? "Hey, what's your coaching philosophy?" "What's your play calling philosophy?". It amazes me how often these philosophical convos aren't more prominent during hiring
These next four weeks have to change radically for the organization to have supreme confidence in the direction that Quinn and the staff are headed. If the next 4 weeks look at all like today, Quinn has to be on the hot seat this off-season...#HTTR#HTTC
@IndySkinsFan@Commanders With all that's gone wrong, not just this game but several, things look awful for Quinn. Either he's lost control or his coaches have and it's showing in the play on the field. It's pretty unexpected following last year where people seemed to play for him
I thought this team was ascending after last year. So much to be optimistic for. Now? Do we have the right coaches? Why is a capable oline playing like bottom 5? How do you turn it around? So much seems to point to coaching. What changes? How many need to go? Fix it fast! #HTTR
Yes, we've had injuries. Yes we're without our best player. But halfway through the year and this team feels SO FAR AWAY from being in a Super Bowl, let alone contending for a wildcard spot. Thought last year turned a corner...#HTTR#HTTC
