The 2025 NFL season is almost here, and Missing the Point is back with one of our most anticipated episodes of the year: our full-season NFL prediction special. Hosts Mike Marcangelo, Dave Clarke, Robert Kelly, and Rayshawn Buchanan take you division by division, team by team, and award by award—breaking down exactly how we see the 2025 season playing out from Week 1 to the playoffs.
We start with NFC and AFC win-loss projections, debating everything from the Dallas Cowboys' shocking decision to trade Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers, to whether Lamar Jackson is primed for an MVP season, and how Caleb Williams will fare under pressure in Chicago.
This isn’t just hot takes for clicks—every prediction is backed by roster analysis, coaching matchups, schedule strength, and the chaos only the NFL can deliver.
