Does Lamar Jackson’s offensive line need some work or is the Chiefs’ defense just *that* good?The two give some early superlative predictions for the NFL season from the ‘Kirk Cousins Award’ for mediocrity to the ‘Barry Sanders Award’ for the player who’ll have to carry their bad team (looking at you Raiders).Later, Fitz & Frank give their bold predictions for the remaining Week 1 games including Jordan Love coming back down to earth vs. Philadelphia, the Carolina Panthers starting 1-0 against the New Orleans Saints and, against all odds, a good season for Sam Darnold and the Minnesota Vikings.Subscribe to Inside Coverage on your favorite podcast app:🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3AbfhJc🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ymFp3f📢Yahoo Sports podcast network: https://apple.co/3zEuT❤️ Inside Coverage would be nothing without the impact of our beloved Terez Paylor, who was a pillar of Yahoo Sports' NFL editorial and podcast coverage.
