Summary

The NFL season is HERE and that means it's time for BOLD PREDICTIONS!! First things first, the Chicago Bears are set for a major breakthrough in 2025 with Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams as a pairing. The Jacksonville Jaguars are also a team primed for a glow up. The Dallas Cowboys however, could be a team set for a fall after Micah Parsons was traded away, but the Minnesota Vikings could also be a team affected by the Parsons trade in a negative way. Finally, the Miami Dolphins are in a strange place and it seems increasingly likely they move on from Mike McDaniel at some point during the season before other teams make a change.
