The are betting on returning to form after trading two high draft picks for the former quarterback this offseason. According to their longest-tenured wide receiver, it’s a smart bet to make. Thursday, longtime pa s catcher T.Y. Hilton had high praise for his new QB, saying that Kyle Korver Jersey Wentz has “some Andrew Luck traits” and brings “special talent” to Indianapolis in 2021. Collin Sexton Jersey “He has some Andrew Luck traits, man,” Hilton said. “He can get out of the pocket. He can make the incredible throws. He’s a special talent, man, especially when he’s standing up in the pocket delivering throws and his ability to avoid guys and make plays with his legs or with his arm Kevin Porter Jersey . So he’s a special talent.”Hilton, of course, brings firsthand experience of playing alongside Luck, the former Colts QB, having served as one of the retired signal-caller’s top targets from 2012-2018. It’s probably not a coincidence that Luck’s name is mentioned in almost every conversation about Indy’s QB situation since Luck abruptly announced he was walking away from the game prior to the 2019 season. Wentz is just the latest Colts acquisition who will try to fill the former Pro Bowler’s shoes as a short- and long-term answer under center. It’s Kevin Porter Jr. Jersey fair to say Hilton isn’t being too hyperbolic with his remarks. While Wentz NBA Cleveland Cavaliers Jeresy graded out as one of the ‘s worst QBs in 2020, his fifth and final year in Philadelphia, he was a legitimate MVP candidate earlier in his career. As for Hilton, the veteran wideout reportedly turned down other more lucrative offers on the free agent market to return to Indy, presumably in part because of Wentz’s addition at QB.

Folks, we made it. Gone are the days when we have to lie to ourselves and say that store-bought is just as good as the name-brand stuff. The regular season is here. But, Damian Jones Jersey before the and kick off the 2022 campaign, it’s time for us to call our shot with our five bold predictions of the season.We did a version of this and it was a mixed bag with a couple of hits. Yes, returned to the and Tenne see was able to hang onto the No. 1 seed, Yes, the reached the AFC Championship game. However, the Rams were far from a one-and-done in the postseason and the didn’t go 0-17. And even though he came out of retirement, we’re still calling our ” retires” prediction a win.This year, we have one NFC team rising to the top of the conference while the rest of the predictions focus on individual play from some of the ‘s more polarizing figures.The Philadelphia Eagles have been a sexy pick to win the NFC East to the point that they are now the betting favorite. With that in mind, let’s crank up the prediction to BOLDby saying they’ll finish as the No. 1 seed in the entire NFC. They are currently outside the top five in the odds to earn the top seed in the conference and are looking up at the , , Rams, , and , in that order. At Caesars Sportsbook, they have 10-1 odds to sit atop the NFC. This offseason, the Eagles improved the roster acro s the board. They traded for star wideout at the draft, giving a true No. 1 option alongside and tight end . That trio of pa s-catchers is lightyears better than what Hurts has played with in his first two years and being in Year 2 of Nick Sirianni’s system also has him poised for a leap in production. Meanwhile, they seemingly hit a home run with first-round defensive tackle and stole linebacker in the third round this spring. They also recently traded for C.J. Gardner-Johnson to give the secondary a boost.Not only is the roster better, but they have one of the easiest schedules in the entire NFL. When looking at projected win totals, Philly’s schedule ranks as the second-easiest in the league. That should allow them to pile up wins and ultimately grab ahold of the No. 1 seed. SF RB #23 Att99Yds442TD1FL0 McCaffrey has been through the gauntlet the past few seasons. The star running back has been haunted by injuries that have taken out chunks of playing time over the last couple of seasons and is now looking to bounce back with a healthy campaign in 2022. And we predict he’ll do just that. Over the first Kris Dunn Jersey three seasons of McCaffrey’s career he was quite durable, not mi sing a single game and playing in roughly 85% of the offensive snaps. Dating back to 2020, however, he’s played in just 10 games due to injury. At some point, that bad injury luck has to turn around and it does feel like he’s due for a healthy campaign in 2022.He was placed on season-ending IR in Week 12 of last season, so he’s had plenty of Charlie Brown Jr. Jersey time to rest up and is coming into this year completely healthy. On top of that, he’s playing in a much better offense with at quarterback and first-round tackle blocking for him, so he may not take as much abuse as he has in the past.When healthy, McCaffrey is one of the most electric and productive skill positions players in the NFL. If plays all 17 games as we predict, he’s a shoo-in for Comeback Player of the Year. DEN QB #3 CMP%64.8YDs3113TD25INT6YD/Att7.78 The man who has NEVER received an MVP vote in his career will have the bulk of them by the end of the 2022 regular season. Yes, Ru sell Wilson will be this season’s Most Valuable Player. The star quarterback was traded to this offseason and is inserting himself in an offense that is littered with top-tier weapons like wideouts and , and second-year running back . Wilson will also be playing for first-year head coach Nathaniel Hackett, who was previously the offensive coordinator for the Packers and helped to back-to-back MVP awards over the last two seasons.As we’ve seen over the past couple of years, quarterbacks can adapt quickly after switching franchises ( and Tom Brady, for example). With this fresh start and strong cast around him, Wilson should be expected to put up eye-popping numbers and be the difference-maker who finally moves Denver into the playoffs. KC DE #56 First of all, the “Furious George” nickname is perfect.The first-round Solomon Hill Jersey pa s rusher for the Chiefs is expected to have a solid role along this defense, which gives him a lane to beat the 20-1 odds and win Defensive Rookie of the Year. He had two sacks over the preseason and that is the type of statistic that is going to have voters’ attention. He’ll be playing for a Chiefs team that will be a contender throughout the year and still boasts an offense that should be able to get up on teams early. That sets up a game script for him to be able to tee off against opposing quarterbacks and pump up his stats, especially with the likes of and garnering most of the attention. If he can disrupt the quarterback as he did at Purdue, the 6-foot-4, 275-pounder will have a national stage to state his case.Kansas City is set to play in five primetime games this season, which is the maximum number a team can be given. That allows Karlaftis to have the entire NFL-viewing audience watching him. That’s something — the current betting favorite for this award — doesn’t have as the Lions are currently without a primetime game in 2022. MIA QB #1 CMP%67.8YDs2653TD16INT10YD/Att6.84 There doesn’t seem to be much of a gray area with Tua Tagovailoa: You either believe he’s a franchise guy or you don’t. For me, I think he is the type of quarterback that you can build your team around and have sustainable succe s. Over the first two years of his career, he’s been given a raw deal that has hurt his development. In 2020, Tagovailoa entered the NFL after suffering a horrific hip injury at Alabama and then was thrust into a offense that was built for . The coaching staff at the time also subbed him in and out of games throughout that rookie Onyeka Okongwu Jersey year, which had to have shaken his confidence. Then, the team openly pursued throughout the 2021 season, and seemingly always had a wandering eye for his replacement.Now, under new head coach Mike McDaniel, it seems like Miami is finally building an offense that caters to his skillset. McDaniels is an offensive-minded coach and the front office went out and solidified the offensive line by signing tackle , established a backfield of and , and made the blockbuster trade for wideout to pair with .Tagovailoa is now well removed from that injury, has an offense and offensive skill position players that caters to him, and should finally be that top-tier prospect he was billed as for the Crimson Tide, which will silence any questions regarding his ability to be QB1.

The have stayed relatively quiet during the 2020 offseason, making and their most notable additions of the free Nathan Knight Jersey agent period. More “star power” could be on the horizon for Seattle, however, specifically at the wide receiver position. , both and could be on the Seahawks’ radar this summer, with Brown apparently a personal favorite of quarterback .Wilson, whose desire for offensive help propelled the Seahawks to add Olsen and Dorsett, “would love” for the team to pursue Brown, per Clayton. The former longtime wide receiver, who hasn’t played since being cut by the early in 2019, is reportedly also Onyeka Okongwu Jersey close with Wilson’s backup, , who just recently re-signed with the Seahawks. If general manager John Schneider even explored the po sibility, Clayton said, it likely wouldn’t be until late July or August.Gordon, on the other hand, already has experience Jaylen Adams Jersey in the Seattle system after spending five games with the Seahawks in 2019. The 29-year-old former Pro Bowler, who just from an indefinite NFL suspension, was claimed off waivers by the Patriots last November and started one game opposite rookie D.K. Metcalf before drawing the fifth substance-abuse suspension of his polarizing career. The Seahawks “would be interested” in Gordon if he’s reinstated, per Clayton, and the veteran Jeremy Lin Jersey wideout apparently enjoyed his time in Seattle enough to return. It’s safe to say, of course, that neither Brown nor Gordon would be the most reliable Dikembe Mutombo Jersey starting-caliber addition to Seattle’s lineup. Brown, who was jettisoned by three different teams in 2019, for numerous off-field incidents. Gordon, meanwhile, hasn’t played a full season in eight years and has been traded twice since 2018, multiple times facing indefinite bans from the league as a result of a years-long struggle with substance abuse.
