I hate to do this coming out of the weekend, but I have to start off today's newsletter with some bad news: For the 31st straight year, EA Sports will not be putting a Rene Robert Jersey kicker on the cover of its latest Madden game.I have no idea who is going to be on the cover, but EA and after watching it 19 times, I'm now 99.9% sure that the player (or players) on the cover this year will not be a kicker. The teaser video features two goats and I'll let you do the math to figure out who it's going to be.You know what, I like math, so I'll go ahead and do it: goat = G.O.A.T = Greatest Of All Time = is going to be on the cover. However, there are two goats in the teaser video, so I'm a suming there will be two players on the cover or maybe two versions of Brady: one for the and one for the .Anyway, the cover of the game will officially be coming out on June 17, not that I care though, since a kicker won't be on the cover. Alright, that's enough video game talk, let's get to the rundown. As always, here's your weekly reminder to tell all your friends to sign up for the newsletter. To sign up, all you have to do is . 1. Today's show: Monday mailbag During the offseason, we like to spice things up each week on the Pick Six Podcast by adding a listener mailbag every Friday and since we didn't actually do one this past Friday, we did one for today instead. Our mailbag episodes are pretty simple: We read listener questions during the show and then answer as many of those questions as po sible. Questions can be about literally anything. I mean, I'm pretty sure there was one time where we spent the entire podcast debating which baseball rules would work in football. If you want to submit a question, all you have to do is go to Apple Podcasts ( ) and leave a five-star review. Here's one question that we answered in today's mailbag: Q:If you could create a 'super team' but using only players from one division, which division would you choose? Only rule: You Erik Johnson Jersey have to take an even number of players from each of the four teams and not just the top team. Bonus question: If all 8 divisions did this what division would win a 'super team' style playoff tournament? A: If I am asked to create an , I don't care what the rules are for creating that team, the first player I'm going after is , which means that for this question, I'm taking the AFC West. An active NFL roster has 53 players and as noted in the rules of the question, each AFC West team has to have at least 13 players on the divisional super team. To make my super team, I'm basically going to take the entire offense, then use the and for the defense. After that, I'll use my 14 players for special teams purposes and to fill the backend of the roster. As for who would win a divisional super tournament, Will Brinson made a strong case for the NFC West and although I like my AFC West super team a lot, I think he might be right. To listen to the rest of the mailbag -- and to follow the podcast -- . 2. CEO keeps saying odd things about the situation Le s than 10 days ago, Packers CEO Mark Murphy wrote on the team's website that when it comes to the Aaron Rodgers situation, "the le s both sides say publicly, the better." Apparently, Murphy has decided not to take his own advice because he seems to have something new to say about Rodgers every time he opens his Rob Ramage Jersey mouth in public.On June 5, Murphy said that the Rodgers . If you're trying to get on someone's good side, that's definitely not how you do it.Over the weekend, Murphy called Rodgers " because former Packers general manager Ted Thompson used to call him that. If you're trying to get on someone's good side, quoting someone who pa sed away in January probably isn't the way to do it (Thompson ).CBS Sports NFL Insider Jason La Canfora has been watching this situation closely and he thinks that the Packers are being petty AND acting in poor taste. Here's JLC on the Packers from his column today: Without Rodgers, La Canfora thinks the Packers are a six-win team at best. If you want to check out his entire scathing take on how Green Bay has . 3. has a hilarious explanation for why he's not a fan quarterback Kyler Murray was born and raised in Texas, which means if you had to gue s who his favorite NFL team was while he was growing up, you'd probably a sume it was the Cowboys. However, that is not the case. During , Murray revealed that he was not a Cowboys fan while he was growing up and it was kind of hilarious."They were always a s," Murray said.Very blunt, but also very accurate. Murray was born in 1997 and in his lifetime, the Cowboys only have three playoff wins and they've NEVER played in an NFC Championship Game in that time period. As a matter of fact, the have more playoff wins (four) in Murray's lifetime than the Cowboys, so if he was going to be a fan of a team in Texas, it probably would have made more sense to choose Houston (For the record, Murray was a fan growing up).Of course, if you listen to another quarterback ( ), this might be the year where the Cowboys aren't a s. In a recent interview, Dak said that two key Cowboys players . On : "Zeke looks great. He' Tyson Jost Jersey s in the best shape of his life -- looking fast. Everybody's seen the clips of him working out independently with his running back coach. His cuts, just how explosive he is."On : "My expectations . I'm so excited for CeeDee... He's a special playmaker that we're privileged to have and he'll be big-time and definitely have a breakout season."By the way, my favorite part of this entire Kyler situation is that the Cowboys and Cardinals actually play each other this year. The two teams will be meeting up in Dallas in Week 17 and at that point, we'll find out if Dak was right about his teammates or if Kyler was right about the Cowboys always being a s. 4. Predicting every game on the ' 2021 schedule Now that the month of June is here, that means the dead part of the NFL offseason is almost upon us and although things can get kind of boring during that period, we're going to keep things spicy around here by going through and Francois Beauchemin Jersey predicting every game on each team's 2021 schedule. There are 32 teams and we'll be doing one team per day until we make it through every team. Today, we're going to continue our run through the AFC North by taking a closer look at the Cleveland Browns. Our Patrik Walker went through Cleveland's entire schedule and picked out all the games the Browns are going to win and all the games they're going to lose. Here's a look at how Walker sees the Browns doing in three key games: Week 1: Browns at Chiefs. Prediction:Cleveland 34-31 over Kansas City (Note from Breech: The Browns haven't won a game in Week 1 since 2004). Week 8: at Browns. Prediction:Cleveland 30-24 over Pi
