LeBron James has dropped some predictions for the 2025 NFL season after taking heat for his family’s matching tattoos.
The new campaign will kick off with a highly anticipated matchup between the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles and NFC East rivals, the Dallas Cowboys, on September 4.
LeBron, a perennial NBA superstar, is a massive football fan who played in high school and could have probably had a fruitful career in the NFL. He offered his predictions for the inbound term, picking the Cleveland Browns as the sleeper team for 2025, claiming he got it right with the Washington Commanders last year.
While we have not fact-checked this, LBJ does have a reputation for not being very honest about such claims.
Anyhoo, he reckons the Browns will make a statement as loud as the Commies made last season, having progressed all the way to the NFC Championship last season. He’s from Ohio, after all, while he played for the Cleveland Cavaliers twice, so it’s understandable.
The four-time NBA champion has also predicted that the Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs will return to the Super Bowl for round three. They have faced off in two of the last three finales, with each team collecting a win.
“I’m going Eagles-Chiefs again, man,” LeBron said. “I mean, you got the best two teams, you got the best players in the whole NFL, and Pat Mahomes. And I think he wants some get back, so I got Eagles-Chiefs.
LeBron James Wouldn’t Go All The Way
While he backed the teams to return to the big stage next February, James refused to pick a winner.
“Nah, I got no winner right now,” he admitted.
“So edgy,” a fan commented.
“Way to go out on a limb,” said another.
Still, the prediction isn’t quite as controversial as the one USA Today made earlier this month, with the outlet picking the Green Bay Packers to play the Baltimore Ravens.
Of course, LeBron has his own future to worry about and is looking to bring another title to Los Angeles following the team’s acquisition of Luka Doncic last season.
The two are said to be building chemistry ahead of their first full campaign together.
We predict an L.A. Lakers-Miami Heat final, for personal reasons…
