The Shenoa Report
September 4, 2019
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 nine 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 Rams and the Patriots were headed to the Super Bowl. Super Bowl LIII might have been the worst Super Bowl to date. Nothing really happened for the first 3 quarters…There was no score in the first quarter. The Pats were the first to score, with a field goal in the second quarter. The Rams scored a field goal in the third quarter, and then with 7 minutes left in the game the Patriots finally scored a touchdown. The Rams tried to answer back which led to an interception and another Patriots field goal. That was basically the game. Not even the commercials were good.

Some, but not all, notable moves in the off season include, Gronk retiring, Le'Veon Bell moving to the Jets, Antonio Brown moving to the Raiders, OBJ traded to the Browns (tear), Mark Ingram signing with the Ravens, Kareem Hunt joining the Browns after serving a suspension, Nick Foles signing with the Jaguars, and the Dolphins trading for Josh Rosen.
The Raiders were the stars of HBO’s Hard Knocks this season. We learned that Antonio Brown is really particular about what helmet he wears and that if you understand what Coach Gruden is saying you knock on wood.
Andrew Luck retired during the preseason, that was made into a brief drinking game whilst listening to sports commentators.
New rule changes in the NFL include making pass interference reviewable, and you’re not able to hit people anymore blindsided, there’s more to it but you get the idea…
This is the 100th year of football! Let’s go!!!
Football starts Thursday, so let’s get back to it!
WEEK 1
Thursday September 5th
Packers @ Bears (8:20pm NBC)
I drafted A-aron in fantasy and will promptly bench him week one because their opponent is the Bears, and they have the number one defense. I’m picking the Bears to win their home opener.
Sunday September 8th
Titans @ Browns (1pm CBS)
I’m picking the Browns to win, also they are my defense this fantasy season so they have to beat the Titans.
Bills @ Jets (1pm CBS)
I was going to pick the Bills to win this game because they had a perfect preseason but then I remembered that the Jets picked up Le’Veon Bell in the off season so now I’ll have to pick the Jets to win this game.
Falcons @ Vikings (1pm FOX)
The Vikings always seem to win at home, so I’m picking the Vikings to win.
Redskins @ Eagles (1pm FOX)
I’d like to see this game end in a tie but if I have to pick I’ll take the Eagles to win their home opener.
Ravens @ Dolphins (1pm CBS)
I’m picking the Ravens to win this game.
Rams @ Panthers (1pm FOX)
I’m picking the Rams, cause, who knows which Cam is going to step up for Carolina.
Chiefs @ Jaguars (1pm CBS)
I’m picking the Chiefs even though the Jags have a good defense.
Colts @ Chargers (4:05pm CBS)
I’m picking the Chargers to win, the Colts have no Luck left.
Bengals @ Seahawks (4:05pm CBS)
I’m picking the Seahawks to win this game.

NY Giants @ Cowboys (4:25pm FOX)
The Giants went 4-0 in the preseason. That being said, because they have let me down so much these past few years, I’m picking the Cowboys to win their home opener. I’m hoping I’m wrong, and obviously I’ll be rooting for the Giants. GO GMEN!!!!
Lions @ Cardinals (4:25pm FOX)
I’m picking the Lions to win and spoil Kyler Murray’s first game in the NFL.
49ers @ Buccaneers (4:25pm FOX)
I’m picking the 49ers to win. There isn’t much to say about the Bucs now that Fitzmagic plays for the Dolphins.
Steelers @ Patriots (8:20pm NBC)
I’m picking the Pats to win their home opener. I mean, the Steelers no longer have Bell or Brown.
Monday September 10th
Texans @ Saints (7:10pm ESPN)
I’m picking the Saints and I need Brees and Kamara to have a really big game because they are both starting on my fantasy team.
Broncos @ Raiders (10:20pm ESPN)
I’m going to take the Raider to win this game, though I probably won’t stay up to watch it… or maybe I will…
Happy Week One!!!!!
GO GMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the edit Eric!
