NFL News NFL News, Reports and Updates
Welcome to the Tuesday edition of the Pick Six newsletter!
The final day of 2024 is here, which means you have just hours to finish all of your resolutions from 2024 before you have to start working on your new ones for 2025. I made a resolution seven years ago to never make another resolution and that has been working wonders.
Speaking of resolutions, we decided to make one for each NFL team, and that’s mostly because we’re an NFL newsletter and that’s what we do on days like this.
In today’s newsletter, we’ll also be handing out grades for Detroit’s 40-28 Monday night win over the 49ers. We’ll also be unveiling Prisco’s latest power rankings, and I’ll have some early Week 18 picks to take you into the New Year.
Just as a heads up, there will be no newsletter tomorrow. We’ll all be too busy watching the College Football Playoff. (If you want to check out our predictions for the quarterfinal games, you can do that here.)
As always, here’s your daily reminder to tell all your friends and neighbors to sign up for the newsletter. To get them signed up, all you have to do is click here.
