The Shenoa Report

Regular Season Week 1
IT’S HERE! IT’S HERE! THE FOOTBALL SEASON IS HERE!!!!! And
you know what that means; the Shenoa Report is back as well!!! Are you ready
for some football?!?! If you’re a first time reader, welcome! And if you’re a
loyal follower welcome back, I’ve missed you. I started this blog eight years
ago after a number of people asked me for my opinion on football and what teams
they should root for. Please know that I am very biased, and this report is just
my opinion!
The last time I wrote, the Eagles and the Patriots were
headed to the Super Bowl. If you were
like me you were very confused on whom to root for. I ended up being ok with
the outcome of the game. Hopefully it’ll be the last time I’ll actually be ok
with rooting for the Eagles. I mean, if
it makes Jim Beaty happy, it was worth an Eagles win. Now we know the Pats kryptonite
is an NFC East team in the Super Bowl!
As you may know, I won my fantasy league last year. This
year I couldn’t make it to the live draft so I sent Eric! He picked an amazing
team and we should be contenders again this season. I decided to just focus on
one league this year so I dropped the other one.
I also changed jobs in the off season and am no longer
teaching. I am now one of the Tasting Room Managers at a local winery and I am
also bartending now and then at a local tavern. I love my new jobs and am far
less stressed and much happier! Also, an added plus, if I’m working during a
football game I know it’ll be on in the background!
Football starts Thursday, so let’s get back to it!
Lets see who’s playing whom in week one!!!!!
WEEK 1
Thursday September
6th
Falcons @ Eagles (8:20pm NBC)
Wentz will not be starting this game for the Eagles, Foles
will… Will the Eagles suffer from a Super Bowl hangover? I’m picking the Eagles
to start their season with a win, I’ll be rooting for the Falcons though.
Sunday September 9th
Bills @ Ravens (1pm CBS)
The Bills got rid of Taylor in the off season and will be
starting a no-named QB, actually his name is Peterman but I don’t know him… I’m
picking the Ravens for the win.
Texans @ Patriots (1pm CBS)
Deshawn Watson will be starting for the Texans. I’d love to
see them win. I’ll be rooting for them but picking the Pats to win this
game.
Jaguars @ NY Giants (1pm FOX)
Oh man, I want the Giants to win and I’ll be rooting for
them, no doubt, but after last season I’d be a fool not to pick the Jags to win
this game. Rooting for the Giants, picking the Jags. Man I hope I’m wrong.
Buccaneers @ Saints (1pm FOX)
I’m picking the Saints to win this game for no better reason
than they are a more solid team than the Bucs.
Bengals @ Colts (1pm CBS)
Andrew Luck is “back” for the Colts. They were terrible
without him this past season. I’m picking the Bengals to ruin the Colts home
opener.
49ers @ Vikings (1pm FOX)
Garoppolo hasn’t lost a game in the NFL. The Vikings are
going with Cousins as their QB. I’m hoping the Vikings hand Garoppolo his first
loss. I’m picking the Vikings to win
Steelers @ Browns (1pm CBS)
Eric and I have been watching Hardknocks this season and I
now have a soft spot for the Browns. I’ll be rooting for them but picking the
Steelers to win this game.
Titans @ Dolphins (1pm FOX)
I’m picking the Titans to win the game. There were on the up
and up last season as the Dolphins were on the down and out.
Redskins @ Cardinals (4:25pm FOX)
I’m picking the Cardinals to win this game. It’s going to be
hard to root against Alex Smith.
Chiefs @ Chargers (4:05pm CBS)
I’m picking the Chargers to win their home opener. It may
seem like I have a crush on Alex Smith but man, I am going to miss him in a
Chiefs uniform. Also, I have Keenan Allen on my fantasy team so I hope that the
Chargers have a really good day!
Cowboys @ Panthers (4:25pm FOX)
I’m picking the Panthers to win, mostly because I am not
willing to pick the Cowboys, Dak is my backup QB for a reason.
Seahawks @ Broncos (4:25pm FOX)
I’m picking the Seahawks to spoil the Broncos home opener.
Here’s to Chris Carson having a GREAT game!
Bears @ Packers (8:20pm NBC)
What will Aaron look like after his injury last season? The
Bears now have Khalil Mack… I’m picking the Packers.
Monday September 10th
Jets @ Lions (7:10pm ESPN)
I’m picking the Lions to win. The Jets just don’t have it
this season, and a rookie QB to boot.
Rams @ Raiders (10:15pm ESPN)
I’m picking the Rams to win. This will be an interesting
game to watch if you can stay awake. Chucky won’t be commentating, rather
coaching this game for the Raiders. Like I said, it’ll be interesting.
Happy Week One!!!!!
GO GMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the edit Eric!
