# Kevin Wildes: Wildes, a Patriots backer, flips to picking Detroit to beat New England in Munich and predicts the winless Chargers upset the Ravens straight up. **Claimed:** Nov 13, 2026 **Pundit:** Kevin Wildes — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/kevin-wildes **Outlet:** First Things First (podcast) — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/first-things-first-podcast **How it reached us:** said on air, transcribed by us **Original:** https://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/pdst.fm/e/traffic.megaphone.fm/FOXM8924510137.mp3 2 checkable claims — 2 game outcome picks — 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.
