# Jourdan Rodrigue: Rodrigue takes the Chargers to win the Brazil opener over the Chiefs and says they are high on the Raiders, expecting them to score a lot of points. **Claimed:** Sep 2, 2025 **Pundit:** Jourdan Rodrigue — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/jourdan-rodrigue **Outlet:** Around the NFL (podcast) — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/around-the-nfl-podcast **How it reached us:** said on air or in an interview **Original:** https://omny.fm/shows/nfl-daily/dark-energy-predictions-nfl-kickoff-and-brazil-game-previews 2 checkable claims — 1 game outcome pick and 1 surprise team call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 2 players and teams, each linked to their own record. 1 of 2 have settled so far, averaging 100 out of 100, against 100 for a naive guess at the same calls. > I'm going to take the Chargers. I like that, I like I like this team a lot. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Los Angeles Chargers to beat Chiefs** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: Los Angeles Chargers - Verdict: scored 100 out of 100, against 100 for a naive guess - Line: Closing line (Sep 5, 2025): Chiefs by 3 · underdog pick, Chargers 39%.
