N D: We're live on Facebook.
Chad Decker: Uh, maybe? Probably not.
N D: Jeez.
Chad Decker: I don't know I'm still learning the back door of this whole thing here. So I learned a lot yesterday. so

Chad Decker: Well, there you go. good that was a That was a good conversation.
N D: Let's get into it. Yeah.
Chad Decker: Okay.
N D: Yeah.
Chad Decker: Tonight's game. Rematch Super Bowl. Seahawks versus Patriots. Who you got, Nolan?
N D: I've got the same outcome as... seven eight months ago seven months ago Or how many months ago was I'm going to go Seattle.
Chad Decker: ye
N D: I think there's going to be a. I think Seattle's going to put up some points. It's going to turn into a somewhat of a shootout, I think, tonight. but I'm looking at maybe 38 -24 Seattle.
Chad Decker: I got Seattle and I said 31 -17. I think the Pats. Is the Mike Rabel situation going to carry over? If if the Pats lose like their first four games, it's going to be like that.
Chad Decker: Anna Rossini.
N D: So Vrabel still has his job.
Chad Decker: Diana Rossini. Diana Rossini. Yeah.
N D: And Russini doesn't.
Chad Decker: Yep.
N D: i just I don't know.
Chad Decker: Yeah. Yeah, that's...
N D: That was that was crazy.
Chad Decker: That's a whole other story.
N D: Yep.
Chad Decker: for a whole nother time.
N D: For a whole nother podcast.
Chad Decker: I don't think. we're Yes, yeah. And I really don't care. I mean, it's... Yay. doesn't matter to me. so Anyways. so Next game, down in Australia.
Chad Decker: Isn't it?
N D: thursday night yep
Chad Decker: but Throw a shrimp on the barbie there, brother. so i guess i'm going to go first i'm going to go i'm going to pick the rams over the niners
N D: Yep.
Chad Decker: I'm going to say 27 to 21. 27 -21 Rams.
N D: All right, I got Rams as well, and I think... Only 14 points going to be scored by San Francisco. and
Chad Decker: Okay.
N D: 31.
Chad Decker: You're good. You're picking a lot of – I have a feeling, I haven't heard your picks, but I think you're going to have some high -scoring games this week.
N D: 31 -14, yeah, it's the... It's the year of the... Touchdown.
Chad Decker: okay
N D: I think this year.
Chad Decker: Okay, okay.
N D: ah
Chad Decker: Yeah. There you go. All right. Next one on my list. and we can you want to do the bears panthers now i mean i just went down the list that was that I looked at. Are you on the way until the end?
N D: We'll wait until the end on those, yeah.
Chad Decker: Okay, okay. So I got Ravens versus Colts. You're up, my man.
N D: Oh, boy. You mentioned I got some high -scoring games, Chad. This one is... ah This one's going to be high for one team and a little low for the other. I got Baltimore.
N D: Winning big. 42 to 14.
Chad Decker: wow wow Up in the 40s. Really.
N D: Up in the 40s, yep.
Chad Decker: Okay.
N D: Yep.
Chad Decker: Okay.
N D: I think, yeah, we'll talk about. fantasy leaders later on, but...
Chad Decker: Okay.
N D: One of my fantasy leaders is on that team. so
Chad Decker: I'm guessing that we probably have the same fantasy leader then. would be my guess.
N D: We might.
Chad Decker: Because cause I have the Ravens winning 34 -16. I think the Colts are in for a bad year.
N D: What are you going for two two -point conversions or what are we doing here?
Chad Decker: Ah, yeah. just use Three field goals. I think Baltimore has that, you know, you score a touchdown and you kick three field goals.
N D: Oh.
Chad Decker: 9 plus 7 equals...
N D: True. Yeah, you could do that.
Chad Decker: Yeah, yeah. So there you go.
N D: It's 16, yep.
Chad Decker: Yeah.
N D: Yep.
Chad Decker: right All right. Next game, we got your... Pittsburgh Steelers, Nolan, versus the Atlanta Falcons. And I'm going to go 24 -10. And I'm going to go with the Steelers.
Chad Decker: to win that one.
N D: ah Let's see. Where did that game go on my list? Pittsburgh is playing who?
Chad Decker: Steelers playing the Falcons. It's Pittsburgh versus Atlanta.
N D: Yeah, I don't know where that one went.
Chad Decker: ah
N D: That's the one I missed. The heck? Um...
Chad Decker: Get me out.
N D: All right, I got Pittsburgh.
Chad Decker: Bye.
N D: You pick Pittsburgh.
Chad Decker: okay I've hit Pittsburgh.
N D: I picked Pittsburgh winning at 10 to nine.
Chad Decker: oh okay So, so far we've got every pick the same.
N D: And what was your score?
Chad Decker: 24 -10.
N D: Okay.
Chad Decker: Okay. My next one I have is Jaguars versus... The Browns.
N D: Jeez.
Chad Decker: in Europe.
N D: Checks. Jacksonville versus the bronze. Oh, there they are.
Chad Decker: yeah
N D: All right. I got Jacksonville.
Chad Decker: okay
N D: Winning this one 24 -3.
N D: Yeah, Deshaun Watson. Is not the answer. They bring in Shadur in the fourth quarter, and he is not the answer. Jacksonville takes care of business. And picks up.
Chad Decker: So.
N D: The win.
Chad Decker: I was gonna... call for an upset here because how bad can the browns be every single year And I think Deshaun Watson's a pretty good one. Quarterback. But then...
Chad Decker: like My head took over, and so I said the Jags 31, the Browns 27, and I think Watson's going to have a pretty good year. I think he's... And between him and Mahomes, one of those two is going to be comeback player of the year.
Chad Decker: Just saying. Just saying.
N D: Just saying, all right?
Chad Decker: Just saying. Just saying.
N D: Okay.
Chad Decker: Okay, here we go. Bengals box. The Bengals versus the Bucs. And I've got the Bengals winning 33 -20. I know Baker just signed that big contract. I just don't think Baker Mayfield's a very good quarterback.
Chad Decker: I think Gerbera. and that defense has things to prove this year, and I think the Bengals are going to be a force. in the AFC this year. So Bengals 33, bucks 20.
N D: All right, I got Baker Mayfield signing that new contract. He's motivated for at least a week, and it's going to be this week. Um, Tampa Bay is going to win 21 -17.
Chad Decker: our first different
N D: Yep.
Chad Decker: Thank you. so Okay. Titans. versus the Jets. I was kind of curious as to who you were going to pick on this game. so So I believe you go first, my man. So.
N D: Um, yeah, I'm going to go on the Titan side. Cam Ward's going to throw a touchdown pass and that's going to be it.
Chad Decker: boy
N D: For the Titans. um The Jets will cross midfield once. They will kick a field goal. And your final score will be seven to three Titans over the jets in week one of the.
Chad Decker: but
N D: Preview of the toilet bowl. in the NFL.
Chad Decker: So I picked the Titans to win. I said it's 24 to 30. um Seven to three. God, that's like the... Bears Vikings game. Thank you, and I win. Whoa.
N D: ah Yeah, yeah
Chad Decker: How bad is that?
N D: That was bad
Chad Decker: How bad is that? All right. So Bills versus the Texans. This is a coin flip to me. So I i picked the Bills to win 20 -17. All right. But I wouldn't be surprised if this game goes either way.
N D: I got Bills 21 -20. A missed extra point. by the Texans is going to cost them the game.
Chad Decker: All right, so now we're on to the Raiders versus the Dolphins. And if we're going to. Again, I had a hard time picking, and I just went with my good buddy Kirk Cousins is going to.
Chad Decker: find the fountain of middle -aged. And he's going to come back and he's going to beat the Dolphins. It's going to be 31 to 17. He's going to keep on playing quarterback. and Ah. He's not going to let that young guy out on that. out on the street.
N D: Yeah, I got the same way. I got 24 -17.
Chad Decker: okay
N D: Kirk Cousins defeats. Malik.
Chad Decker: Malik. Malik Willis.
N D: Yep.
Chad Decker: All right. Two teams that I could care less about. Eagles versus the Commanders.
N D: Oh, I thought it was Green Bay, Minnesota there for a second.
Chad Decker: Yeah.
N D: but
Chad Decker: Wow. We're not that far down yet.
N D: Okay.
Chad Decker: so Ah. So I believe you're up you're up first.
N D: Who we... Are we talking?
Chad Decker: Yeah.
N D: Which one?
Chad Decker: Eagles versus the Commanders.
N D: Um...
N D: I don't know. if Yeah, I'm going to stick with my my first pick here. I got Washington over Philadelphia 24 -17.
Chad Decker: oh
N D: Got the upset.
Chad Decker: wow okay
N D: Yeah.
Chad Decker: Okay, I got.
N D: Well, Philadelphia is without their number one receiver. And I don't think Devante Smith is the number one receiver. and Goddard can only catch so many passes before. He wears out in the third and fourth quarter, so.
Chad Decker: alrighty that's big Big pick. I got Eagles.
N D: And Jalen Hurts is who we thought he was.
Chad Decker: oh Oof.
N D: I don't know how we who we thought he was, but...
Chad Decker: I'll cut there. Yeah. i don't know oh dady I got Eagles 30, Commander 16. I think. This is Daniel's last year as starter for the commanders.
N D: Oh, come on now.
Chad Decker: I'm just saying.
N D: Come on.
Chad Decker: no
Chad Decker: Hello? You play the wind game.
N D: ah Hey, they made it to the NFC Championship game as rookie year. Come on.
Chad Decker: yeah
N D: What has changed since?
Chad Decker: okay
N D: Alright, go ahead.
Chad Decker: I just I think he's injury prone. Just the way he plays so Cowboys Giants Ah.
Chad Decker: 34. Tad. Cowboys.
N D: I have the greatest show on turf scoring 42.
Chad Decker: wo
N D: 42 -10 over the Giants. Dak Prescott will use... Up his speedy wide receivers. and they'll score a lot of points this weekend. I think Dallas is going to be.
N D: One of the shockers. To possibly be a top three seed in the NFL.
Chad Decker: okay aye wow oh i I think they'll be okay this year. I really do. I'm not a big fan of them either, but. You know what?
Chad Decker: for Maybe.
N D: You see. What's your score?
Chad Decker: Maybe. 34 to 10.
N D: Yeah.
Chad Decker: Yeah. I think. yeah they've got some pretty good receivers on that team Okay. Broncos Chiefs Monday night. Who you got? brother.
N D: I got Denver. I don't think Mahomes is going to be 100%.
Chad Decker: yeah
N D: I think Kelsey's still trying to get in the shape. um I think Bo Nix comes in and... Has a big night against the Chiefs on Monday night, so I'm going Denver 38.
N D: Chiefs 27.
Chad Decker: God, you've got these games like... No defense is going to show up week one is what you're saying.
N D: and Not week one. No, never.
Chad Decker: Okay. All right. I also have the Broncos. I got 27 -24. Wow. Just think it's going to be up. just a back and forth game.
N D: Well you're not far off from... Scoring a lot of points, everybody.
Chad Decker: No, I know that. but And when I was writing these dollars, I'm like, God, I got a lot of scores in the 20s. 30s Okay. So let's go back to our NFC North. And let's talk about the Lions versus the Saints.
Chad Decker: And I am going to take the Lions. and the lion are my highest scoring team of the week. They're going to score 35. And the same. It's only going to score 17.
Chad Decker: So my Minnesota math tells me that 35 is more than 17, so the Lions are going to win this game.
N D: all right And for the... third team. that I've picked to score over 40. Detroit is also going to score the most points this week.
Chad Decker: put okay
N D: They are going to put up. And. un... Crazy numbers, 49 -7 over New Orleans. The Super Bowl train is going to start up in Detroit.
N D: And. They will get. Shot down next week.
Chad Decker: Okay, I was just gonna say God you just have the freaking cowboys on the super bowl train and now you're already changing All right.
N D: Yep.
Chad Decker: Okay, so who do you want to talk about next? I'll let you decide
N D: Oh, we've got some good ones um The only two games we got left, right?
Chad Decker: Yes.
N D: Okay, we've got let's go Chicago, Carolina.
Chad Decker: okay Then I'll go.
N D: There are
Chad Decker: you Go ahead.
N D: There are a lot of teams or. They're all saying that Chicago, this is a trap game. They're going to get beat first week. They're going to regress all year. Um... I don't know I'm going to go Bears 35 -21 over Carolina.
Chad Decker: Bye.
N D: In Carolina.
Chad Decker: In Carolina. I think it's going to be a ah grandiose day for Nolan Dix. He's going to be the happiest guy on Sunday because his Bears are going to win 30 -13. Um,
Chad Decker: Yeah. I wouldn't be surprised if it's closer, but I think the parents are better. team even though the Panthers improve.
N D: now
Chad Decker: pretty They played some good ball last year.
N D: Yep.
Chad Decker: but I just don't think they can go with the Bears.
N D: Yep.
Chad Decker: so Wow. So would you call this next?
N D: Hey, what?
Chad Decker: or Go ahead. Sorry.
N D: We never picked the Chargers Arizona, did we?
Chad Decker: No. I forgot about them.
N D: Yeah.
Chad Decker: How did I miss that one?
N D: I don't know They're winning. 28 -0 Chargers.
Chad Decker: Chargers, I'd say Chargers 24.
Chad Decker: Cardinals, I will say 10.
N D: 24 -10.
Chad Decker: Yeah, Cardinals don't have anybody. anywhere but Jeremiah Love might be the real deal probably week four or five. I think he's going to be okay.
N D: Yeah. Him and his a roll of toilet paper can...
Chad Decker: Woo!
N D: So that's the NFL.
Chad Decker: There you go, my brother.
N D: Oh man.
Chad Decker: All right.
N D: Yep.
Chad Decker: Game of the week. Is this the game of the week, Vikings -Pac? Or is it not your game of the week?
N D: It's not my game of the week, but...
Chad Decker: I mean there's a Well, there's there's some pretty good matchups this week. Broncos -Chiefs is a pretty good one.
N D: yeah
Chad Decker: Cowboys -Giants is a huge rivalry. you know
Chad Decker: about it i think so I don't know. I think that my Vikings are going to win this one. It's going to be close. It's going to be 27 to 20. And it's going to be in favor of.
Chad Decker: sort of Vikings.
N D: We're going to.
Chad Decker: Kyler Murray gets his kyler murray gets its first win of the season. First win as a Minnesota Viking. Yeah. From here on up, the Packers are going to be looking up at the NFC North because all the other three teams are going to win.
N D: Trace Mac will hit three. Field goals. Exciting the Green Bay Packers. Packers are going to score 23 points. And the Minnesota Vikings will be at 21 with 13 seconds to go on a fourth down.
N D: From the 30 -yard line. And the Minnesota kicker. We'll shank it wide right. For Green Bay to hold on to the victory, 23 -21.
N D: and a heart -stopping game for both Minnesota and Green Bay.
Chad Decker: Uh... Okay. Nice work. Hi. Did you dream this up or what did you do here, buddy?
N D: Well, I kind of made it up, but... I can, I'm sure I'll dream it up too.
Chad Decker: Okay. All right.
N D: And did you pick did you pick Jacksonville, Cleveland?
Chad Decker: So there you go.
N D: I didn't write down your pick.
Chad Decker: Yeah.
N D: What was your pick on that one?
Chad Decker: Yep. i Jacksonville 31, Browns 27.
N D: Okay.
Chad Decker: So there you go.
N D: All right, so there are our picks.
Chad Decker: And now. Yes.
N D: I think... i Don't know we'll see
Chad Decker: A couple different ones. Yeah, a couple different ones.
N D: Yeah.
Chad Decker: What, two? Three? Conrad, you picked the pack, you picked the box, and you... pick the commanders.
N D: Yep.
Chad Decker: I think we were the same on everything else. So there you go. All right. So you want to try something new this year. So we were going to pick out a quarterback, a running back, and a wide receiver who we thought was going to have us.
Chad Decker: Brilliant week, right? This is kind of our...
N D: Yes.
Chad Decker: our fantasy foray is what we're doing here talk about a little fantasy football
N D: Yep.
Chad Decker: So for my quarterback, I think he's probably your quarterback.
N D: ah's pay pay ba let's start Let's start wide receiver first.
Chad Decker: Okay. You want to go with wide receiver.
N D: Yeah, wide receiver first.
Chad Decker: Okay. I took a... I took Chris Ovalier from the Saints because I don't think that.
N D: That's a good pick.
Chad Decker: I don't think... Detroit has a very good secondary. so If I... You know, what's what's a good week? fantasy -wise. Now, it's been a few years since I played fantasy football.
N D: Probably two touchdowns, 160 yards receiving.
Chad Decker: Yeah. I will. is that a Well, that's a great week, dude, isn't it? That's like...
N D: ah
Chad Decker: That's like 30 points. I think if you get more than 15 from your receiver, that's a good week. And I think he could catch a touchdown and probably catch what? Six seven passes puts them right at that 14 15 spot depending on how you how you grade and all that with your yardage and all that.
N D: Yep.
Chad Decker: So that's who I'm going to go with. Crystal Wallabe. You're welcome.
N D: All right, my wide receiver.
Chad Decker: Thanks.
N D: I'm gonna be a homer on this one Um... Going with Chicago. I'm going to go with Luther Burden. He's going to have eight catches, 120 yards. Two touchdowns.
Chad Decker: oh
N D: to start out the season for Luther Burden.
Chad Decker: ah You homered that up. you went You went yardage and all that stuff.
N D: Yep.
Chad Decker: Okay.
N D: Yep.
Chad Decker: All right.
N D: And catch us.
Chad Decker: So. And catch you. Alright. Ah. Telephone's ringing. KNDC. How can I help you?
N D: Somebody's knocking.
Chad Decker: Are they really?
N D: No.
Chad Decker: someone No, okay. so running back you go ahead and start my friend
N D: I'm going to start off with... A big day for the number one pick in all fantasy football drafts. Running back. Jameer Gibbs from Detroit, two touchdowns.
N D: and a total of 180 total yards. on the day for Gibbs. From the Detroit Lions. And we'll seal up. the victory for them in the first Probably the first series.
N D: of the game
Chad Decker: Okay.
N D: Gibbs is going to bust one early and set the tone.
Chad Decker: Well. i have gibbs as well because we were i was going to say that one That's what led me to. the next pick which was Olave. but I think Gibbs is going to run up and down the field on the Saints.
Chad Decker: So that means and that's how Olave would get that touchdown, you know, garbage time in the air all the time.
N D: and okay
N D: Yeah.
Chad Decker: So. But I picked Gibbs as well. I didn't. Next week, I will predict their stats. and stuff like that but
N D: Okay. All right.

N D: One.
Chad Decker: Cheers.
N D: Two.

Chad Decker: i
N D: But I think he's going to have a big day.
Chad Decker: I think he's... I just think he's going to run in two because he's... He's just that guy. you know he's just that guy he's that guy
N D: yeah
Chad Decker: Any other? is there any other i was thinking justin jefferson for receivers And I know you went burden. Were you thinking any other receivers at all?
N D: um Jefferson came to mind.
Chad Decker: or
N D: I want to see what what he does with Murray.
Chad Decker: Did it? Okay. Okay.
N D: um Starting off. um The jig bar. i mean they're in they're in a tough matchup tonight but i think the jigba has probably a big night tonight
Chad Decker: Yeah. Yeah.
Chad Decker: Okay. i was uh quarterback wise i was going gibbs running back no matter what because i think he's probably
N D: You know
Chad Decker: Yeah. You know, I don't want him to get hurt, but can that guy last a whole season? You know, I don't know. We'll find out. because like angry mike said last week i'm not a fan of the chair Pachackle.
N D: Pacheco, yeah.
Chad Decker: But I can't say that. oh
N D: Yep.
Chad Decker: quarterback wise I thought maybe Burrow might have a pretty good game I really thought Kirk Cousins might I mean I don't know. i think If Kirk Cousins has a bad game, he's done. I think if he has a good game, he plays next week.
N D: I think Kirk will be fine.
Chad Decker: you need that you how How far do you think he goes?
N D: Ah. Um...
Chad Decker: I mean, if he keeps winning, you don't pull him, right? I mean that's
N D: Well, no, and and I think if you lose some tight games, depending on, I mean, if he comes out and throws. Three interceptions.
Chad Decker: petros for Yeah, yeah.
N D: Then all of a sudden you start looking at going, okay. When are we making the switch?
Chad Decker: So you're if he's 0 -4, but they've only lost by like four points?
N D: Um,
Chad Decker: Do you keep them playing or no?
N D: Well, they could be two and two after the first four weeks. They got the Dolphins. They got the Chargers. They got the Saints. And then they have the chiefs and then the Patriots. So their first five games, and then they got the bills, their first six games.
N D: And then they got the Rams, their first seven games.
Chad Decker: ah
N D: um Yeah, Mendoza could be easily put in.
Chad Decker: Week four.
N D: But...
Chad Decker: Ha ha.
N D: I, well.
Chad Decker: Wait for it.
N D: I don't know. if If the Raiders want to do that to Mendoza. Do you want to throw them up against the Rams or the Patriots or the Chiefs?
Chad Decker: basically He's the number one pick. Yay. Who has not? played the number one pick in the last. 15 years.
N D: Yeah, but... Yeah, but We haven't had that many number one picks. thrive in the NFL either. so

N D: The whole world has seen it. I think you seriously take the win away from Michigan.
Chad Decker: you can't do that because then you just tell the refs that we don't ah We don't believe a word you say if you do that.
N D: But the refs didn't decide that, though. They went to the booth.
Chad Decker: They are. and who is in the booth.
N D: Whoever... Whoever was in the booth should definitely be not. doing games next week. That's for sure.
