FRISCO - Despite just a trickle of the NFL schedule being released, some league experts are already using the crack in the door to make their full-season predictions. As in, yes Super Bowl winners.
Reminder: Super Bowl LX won't be played for 271 days. Nonetheless ...
One of the premier Monday Night Football games was revealed earlier this week, with the Philadelphia Eagles visiting the Green Bay Packers in Week 10, Nov. 10 on ESPN. Taking that cue, analysts Joe Buck and Troy Aikman made their way-too-early picks.
Predicted Buck in an appearance on Good Morning America, "I’m going to say Buffalo finally wins it."
Makes some sense. The Bills were in the AFC Championship Game last season and are led by reigning MVP Josh Allen.
Given only seconds to make his selection, Aikman shocked the set and - if they take hi seriously - the rest of America.
"Cowboys!" Aikman exclaimed. "Yeah. C'mon, Strah!"

The jab wasn't an actual pick (we don't think) but more a volley at GMA co-host and New York Giants' legend Michael Strahan.
Countered Strahan: "You know better than that. C'mon Troy."
The Cowboys are coming off a 7-10 disaster that led to the departure of head coach Mike McCarthy. They also haven't been to the Super Bowl since Aikman led them 29 years ago.
While most fans seem energized by the Cowboys' recent trade for receiver George Pickens, it did little to move their Super Bowl odds. The Cowboys are 50-to-1 longshots to play in Levi's Stadium next February. Strahan's former team, however, is even worse at 200-to-1.
