# Chris Broussard: Broussard picked mostly favorites — Eagles 28-20 over San Francisco, Green Bay, the Rams and Houston — but talked themselves into one upset, the Chargers over the Patriots. **Claimed:** Jan 10, 2026 **Pundit:** Chris Broussard — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/chris-broussard **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/FOXM8582561619.mp3?updated=1768004177 5 checkable claims — 4 game outcome picks and 1 score prediction — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 5 players and teams, each linked to their own record. All 5 have settled, averaging 48.1 out of 100, against 49.1 for a naive guess at the same calls. > So I I think I see Philly winning something like twenty eight twenty. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Los Angeles Rams to beat Panthers** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: Los Angeles Rams - Verdict: scored 100 out of 100, against 0 for a naive guess - Line: Closing line (Jan 10, 2026): Rams by 10 · favorite pick, Rams about 4 in 5 (81%).
