Summary

The 2019 season is only a couple days away, and Chris Simms has the answer key. He gives his playoff & awards predictions with Ahmed Fareed in this mega season preview pod. (3:30) The Cowboys have signed one of their stars to a long-term extension, but it isn't Zeke Elliott ... yet (7:50) What's the impact of Jadeveon Clowney heading to Seattle and the Texans giving up two 1st round picks for Laremy Tunsil? (17:45) AFC Playoff Predictions: Which division will get 3 teams in? And will the Pats or Chiefs grab the #1 seed? (39:45) NFC Playoff Predictions: Simms picks a shocker to miss the playoffs altogether, and a return to power for a team coming off a bad year. (1:01:30) Playoff Bracket Predictions: Some big upsets, a top seed goes down at home in the Divisional, and one long-suffering team needs to wait another year for a playoff win. (1:11:10) Award Predictions: no surprise for MVP, but a breakout DPOY candidate (1:15:00) The Packers and Bears open up the season on Thursday night. Simms tells you what to watch for with the new-look Green Bay offense.
