Next week the NFL Season officially kicks off, but this week we take a look at the NFC West and the AFC West. Who has the tougher schedule? Which key matchups are must-win? Who could win it all and find themselves in the Super Bowl at the end of the season? Tonight we give our season preview and predictions for each team. Last season the Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith started to show signs of pure greatness. However, it was too little too late as the San Francisco 49ers had already secured the division with a dominant 13-4 record. Can Sam Darnold and the 49ers do it again? Will Cooper Kupp and the Los Angeles Rams find glory once again? Or will Kyler Murray and the Arizona Cardinals shock the division and be sitting at the top of the NFC West come January? Given all the talent in the West, is Geno Smith the best quarterback in his division? Let us know in the comments below! All eyes are on the AFC West as the start of the 2023 NFL Season quickly approaches. The defending Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs kick things off with a Thursday Night Football battle with the Detroit Lions. Can the Chiefs set the tone for not just their division but for the entire league? The Denver Broncos brought Sean Payton back to the big stage, but will it be enough to take this team back to the playoffs for the first time in nearly a decade? Is the Justin Herbert-lead offense of the Los Angeles Chargers the absolute best in the NFL? In the offseason, the Las Vegas Raiders signed Jimmy Garoppolo to a multi-year deal. Can the veteran quarterback rally the troops and ensure they are playing in the Super Bowl in their home stadium?

The NFL season kicks off next week and Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles offense are gearing up for their week 1 battle against the New England Patriots. Former Philadelphia Eagles linebacker, and current FOX and 94.1 WIP analyst Garry Cobb takes a look at the Eagles franchise quarterback and the weapons surrounding him like A.J Brown, DeVonta Smith and Dallas Goedert. Is the only hurdle facing the NFC East Champions just staying healthy? Let us know in the comments below. Cam Jurgens has impressed throughout training camp and it looks like he will beat out rookie Tyler Steen for the starting right guard spot replacing Issac Seumalo who was signed to the Pittsburgh Steelers in the offseason. Jurgens, in his second year in the NFL, has only ever played center. How will the young athlete adjust? Will he have trouble finding his rhythm? Was it a smart move by Head Coach Nick Sirianni and Defensive Coordinator Sean Desai? Over the offseason, the Philadelphia Eagles running back room has some new occupants in D’Andre Swift and Rashad Penny. Swift was picked up during the 2023 NFL Draft as part of a trade with the Detroit Lions. Penny was signed following a 5 year stint with the Seattle Seahawks. Alongside Kenny Gainwell and Boston Scott, will these new additions be what this team needs to advance their ground game? Who will emerge as the top running back in 2023? Following the Super Bowl, the Eagles' defense gained a new defensive coordinator in Sean Desai but lost key players. Enter Jalen Carter. Drafted 9th overall by the Eagles earlier this year, the Georgia Bulldog defensive tackle has already positioned himself as one to watch throughout the season. Darius Slay and James Bradberry have continued to impress throughout training camp as well. However, an area of concern is the linebackers and the safeties. Are we getting good-quality play out of Nakobe Dean and Zach Cunningham? Is Reed Blankenship the right man to fill that starting safety role left vacant following the departure of C. J. Gardner-Johnson? As a former linebacker for the Eagles, as well as the Dallas Cowboys and Detroit Lions, Cobb takes us inside the minds of these young defensemen and gives his thoughts on what adjustments he would make as the season approaches.
