Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Aug. 20, 2023, 10:25 p.m.

Overall Rationale: As with all preseason polls, week 0 is based on hype and expectations for the season. Largely based on last years on-field performance and roster/coaching changes in the offseason. Nothing too crazy in my predictions for week 0.
