Paul Bessire And The Prediction Machine On This Weekend In The NFL
Paul Bessire is the creator of the Prediction Machine which predicts player performance and game outcomes in the NFL.
Paul joined Ed and Steve to tell them who to play and expect to win this weekend.
Steve asked Paul about his thoughts on how the Ravens vs Raiders game this Sunday in Oakland will shape up. Paul believes the Ravens will bounce back from their week 1 loss in Denver saying, "26-21 is our projected score, the Ravens will win but the Raiders will cover. The only distinction here between the two teams is their quarterback play."
Ed asked Paul what impact the Terrell Suggs injury will have on the Ravens this season. Paul believes the injury won't have as big an impact as many might think saying of the loss, "its definitely tangible, but its not extreme. He still means something and that might translate to half of a win over the course of the season. His loss matters, but it doesn't make a massive difference."
Paul continued by discussing the best fantasy football week 2 values and pickups, who is the better quarterback Jameis Winston or Marcus Mariota, and expectations for the Maryland Terrapins heading in this Saturday's match up against South Florida.
