What we thought: Kansas Current and OL Reign FC were the consensus choices with the Orlando Pride and NJ/NY Gotham FC getting honorable mentions. Who’s going to win the NWSL Shield and the NWSL Championship? It’s time to go back to the beginning and see where we got it right and where we got it (possibly) horribly wrong.
