As we not so patiently wait until Philadelphia Eagles training camp begins in late July, Jimmy Kempski and I thought it would be fun to preview the 2023 season with our annual game of setting over/unders. And so that’s exactly what we did for the latest BGN Radio podcast episode.
If you’re curious about the results from last year, they look like this:
BLG: 22-6 (78.6%)
Community: 18-10 (64.3%)
Jimmy: 14-14 (50%)
Tough outing for Jimmy, who previously won the 2021 version of this game. I’m now a two-time champion while the BGN community remains winless. We’re adding a new competitor this year in the form of the PhillyVoice voters.
Will anybody step up and prevent me from repeating as both the O/U winner AND the NFL picks winner? Or will my reign of dominance continue?
Give us your best shot by voting in the polls below. (Note: Polls may not show up in Google AMP view so try switching that off for this article.)
