True or False: NFL Edition

False. This is a different Cowboy team. But I will admit, this is the first time this year I'm worried. I'm as nervous as a pregnant nun.
True or false? Will the Steelers cover vs. the Browns?

So false bro.

Dak Prescott will lead Boys to playoffs

False, I'm sorry bjj. I really don't think Dak Prescott will be a legitimate NFL QB, more of a preseason wonder.

Brock Osweiler will become a top 15 NFL QB within the next few years

I couldn't resist, lol.

Hahaha yeah, I was veeeeerrrrrry wrong about both of those. I do still think that in a different offense Osweiler could be a serviceable starting QB. But I definitely missed on this one.

I prefer to focus on the things that I was RIGHT about though :lol:

I discuss the following statement for a few months so let me ask you as well:

True or False: Julio Jones, Antonio Brown, AJ Green, Odell Beckham, DeAndre Hopkins are the top 5 wideouts in the league (in particular order)

Especially Hopkins is in doubt (Mike Evans, TY Hilton, Jordy Nelson and Dez Bryant are in the mix in discussions with some friends of mine)...

I think this is correct. I would take Hopkins over Evans, Nelson, Dez, and Hilton any day of the week.

True or False, this IS the man from these forums....note the teams he played for and the age. http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/d/digreer01.html

True or false? Elliot will break Erick Dickerson's rookie rushing title?

Looking pretty good as of right now! I'm rooting for him to do it (he's on my fantasy team)

I'm bored and I've got some time, so prepare yourselves for a full recap of this thread all in one post.

I'll include any statements that are not subjective and can be answered to this point and whether they are correct or not

True. Goff will start the season.

INCORRECT, he had 7 starts

True, but not by much. The Redskins will be right on their tail.

CORRECT

False. He's on the wrong side of 30. A player like Gurley will pass him. I'm going to create an extra post.

CORRECT

False.

So painfully false.

INCORRECT, unfortunately probably not for the reason you thought. They were 4th.

False, he's one of the players I'm most excited to watch this season. Could be a bust, but I believe he'll have a very solid season.

INCORRECT

CORRECT

bwgood77 wrote:David Johnson will end up with over 1,500 all purpose yards

True. His carries will likely go down a little bit because of Andre Ellington's return (though he'll still start), but with his receiving, kick returning, and punt returning abilities I think he actually gets northward of 1700. Definitely a guy I want in fantasy.

CORRECT and CORRECT

bwgood77 wrote:Lamar Miller rushes for at least 1,200 yards

False, sadly. I hope I'm wrong, though, being a Texans fan and all

CORRECT, he had 1073

bwgood77 wrote:
jwise44 wrote:
Kapernick is starter again by 5th game?

True, personally I think if he gets enough carries, Miller will break that number. I've had him in fantasy the last couple of years, and for whatever reason he never got that many carries despite having a great YPC #.

INCORRECT, but close. I believe he started week 6.

bleu wrote:
Cactus Jack wrote:Carson Wentz will start at some point this season.

I'm gonna say true. I just don't have any faith in Sam Bradford, so I wouldn't be surprised to see him get some starts and be an improvement.

CORRECT

Ezekiel Elliot is in the top 15 for running back Yards Per Game this season

True, with that line he'd have to be an awful running back not to do that.

CORRECT

Cam Newton will throw 14 or more ints this year?

False, he seems to be trending down and getting better with throwing ints.

PUSH, he had 14

Cactus Jack wrote:

Close call. I'm going to say yes. Provided he stays healthy.

INCORRECT, but OH SO CLOSE. He had 997.

RG3 remains the starter for the Browns

This is a tough one. I'm gonna say true. In my mind, there's no question that he's a better QB than Cody Kessler and Josh McCown. However, their WR's are bad bad bad bad. I mean bad. Their first team guys are Rookie Corey Coleman and Marlon Moore. No QB could have success with that corps. So he could get benched eventually, but I don't think any of the other guys will do better.

SORT OF CORRECT, if it weren't for injury

RavenMad31 wrote:
bleu wrote:
The Cardinals will be in the NFC Championship again

With a certain amount of consideration for Cactus Jack, I am going to say False. Arians is such a good coach and they have such a good roster, but too much hinges on Carson Palmer both staying healthy and being able to outplay the likes of Rodgers, Newton, Romo or Wilson in at least one playoff game to get there.

CORRECT

RavenMad31 wrote:
Joe Flacco finally hits the 4000 yard passing mark for a season.

I'll say True. In 2013 and 2014 he was within 100 yards of it, and last year it's very likely that he could have had he stayed healthy. This could be the year.

CORRECT, he had 4317

bleu wrote:
bwgood77 wrote:
The Raiders will win the AFC West this year.

I don't think so. I think that there will be 3 teams very close at the top (sorry bw, the Chargers aren't one of those), and the Chiefs will ultimately have the best record, but not by much.

CORRECT

N/A, he was injured

True. Cardinals are the only playoff team from the 3. BB has a lot of tricks up his sleeve, I wouldn't be surprised if they go 4-0.

CORRECT

Well, he had 997 and got injured for the season with 3 games left. So, considering he said "Provided he stays healthy"...he would have.
