France 2-1-0 (+6) 7

Switzerland 2-0-1 (+1) 6

Ecuador 1-1-1 (EV) 4

Honduras 0-0-3 (-7) 0

 

Arguably the weakest group in the tournament, there are a lot of possibilities her.  Are the Swiss actually as good as their FIFA ranking suggests?  Can the French put things together and make a run?  How much will playing on their home continent help Ecuador?  Will Honduras be able to pull an upset like their fellow CONCACAF member Costa Rica?

 

While I am not expecting them to go too far, I do have Switzerland winning the group.  At that point they would likely have a very winnable game in the Round of 16 before going out to Germany in the quarters.  I have Ecuador edging France for second.  Regardless of who finishes second though I do not see them being much of a threat to Argentina in the Round of 16.

You forgot to mention my Uruguay to the finals pick, haha.  After how successful I was four year ago maybe I am about to be equally as awful.  If so I am going to change my picks to have Portugal and Ghana coming out of G

      I imagine starting Cade Mays has everything to do with him already being under contract next season and Christensen not. If they feel like the performance level is similar, they probably want to see if Mays can play well enough down the stretch to win the starting job going into next season. Plus, yeah, Brady Christensen is an excellent depth player given he can play literally every position on the OL at a solid level. Personally, I'd like to see us extend him regardless just for that alone. He might legitimately be the most versatile OL in the league.

      I’m hoping Moton will retire a Panther. He’s been a steady presence on that OL for years and it would be ashamed to let him go.

      Hunt would be having a pro bowl season if he was on a playoff team. And Lewis will be here another 2 years with that contract he got. I don’t think at this point guard is an option in the near future.
