Ebs’ Hot Takes: Training Camp Edition

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. – The NFL is finally back!

With a couple training camps getting underway today, I bring you my football edition of Ebs’ Hot Takes! Enjoy!

Tom Brady serves a suspension. While the New England Patriots quarterback might not serve his full four-game suspension, I believe he’ll be on the sidelines for at least a couple.

Whether you agree with Roger Goodell’s ruling or not, at the very least Brady didn’t cooperate with the NFL’s investigation and that deserves a couple games in its own right.

If Brady’s suspension is uplifted, things will get bad pretty quickly in the NFL.

The Seattle Seahawks will earn their third-straight Super Bowl trip. Back in February I would have said the Green Bay Packers were my favorite to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl, but with the edition of Jimmy Graham I have to go with the reigning NFC champs.

For the first time in his career Russell Wilson has a legitimate receiving threat to throw the ball to.

This is Peyton Manning’s last season. It pains me to write that, but I feel like it’s true.

Manning wasn’t the same quarterback last year and if he wants to go out on top, this should be his last season.

I just hope he gets one last shot at a Super Bowl title.

RGIII has a bounce-back year. I’ve always been a fan of Robert Griffin III. Heck, I even thought he was a better quarterback than Andrew Luck entering the NFL Draft.

While I might have been wrong about that, I won’t be wrong about this.

RGIII will prove all of his doubters wrong this fall.

The Bills are back in the playoffs! Yup! I said it! While I understand the Buffalo Bills lack the most importantShady piece when building a team – a franchise quarterback – they still have a lot playmakers on offense and a historic defense.

Sexy Rexy will bring the Bills to places they haven’t been this millennium. Just sit back, relax and enjoy the ride.

Also… The Bills win the AFC East.
