The Grande Digest - 2025 Week 8 - Issue #32

About at the half way point to the season. The Grande Pickem: The Premiere Division is 17 games behind the Prime Division. Erick is leading everyone with 84.5 wins, Dan is two games behind and Todd is in third place with 80.5 wins.

The NFL: there are some interesting divisional races. The AFC East: unexpected at the beginning of the season but the Patriots are leading the Bills. The AFC North: is up in the air as the Steelers have a 2 game losing streak and opening the door for the Ravens and Bengals. The surprising Colts appear to be for real so far and not much drama in the AFC South. The AFC West is wide open for everyone but the Raiders.

The NFC East is the Eagles to lose. The NFC North is a battle between the Lions and Packers. The NFC South is TB's to lose. The NFC West is a three way battle for everyone but the Cardinals.

What surprises await in the next nine weeks? Will there be another mid season coach firing? Will QB JJ McCarthy develop or will the Vikings be looking for a QB in the draft? The Cardinals need to evaluate their QB situation.
