5 NFL teams that have the total package to be a Super Bowl contender, plus way-too-early picks for Week 1

Welcome to the Friday edition of the Pick Six newsletter! 

The only thing better than a normal Friday is a Friday before a holiday weekend and that’s what we have today! Since we have a three-day weekend ahead of us, I’m assuming no one wants to read a long introduction, so I’m just going to cut to the chase and get to the rundown.
