Kirk Cousins' Pro Bowl victory proves he can win big games

Kirk Cousins leads NFC to a comeback. So there you go. All the haters that say Kirk Cousins can't win a big game. He just won the Pro Bowl Flag Football challenge.

Kirk Cousins did lead a comeback in the 2023 Pro Bowl flag football game. However, the claim that it debunks his inability to win 'big games' is satirically incorrect as the Pro Bowl is an exhibition.

Kyrie Irving to the Mavericks is a good move because there's only half a season for his 'team cancer' to spread

I think it's a good move for the Mavericks because he only has half a season for his team cancer to spread. So this is like a good window for Kyrie... it's hard to destroy a brand new team in like four months.

The Mavs actually missed the playoffs and even the play-in tournament entirely in 2023 after the trade, so it did not work out well in the short term.

The Kyrie Irving trade raises the Mavericks' ceiling but makes their floor 'lava'

This trade to the Mavericks raises their ceiling but makes the floor lava. And that's perfect... In a world where this all works out, you now added like... a walking bucket.

The Mavericks finished 11th in the West, missing the postseason, which arguably hit the 'lava' floor in the immediate aftermath.

I might bet on the Mavericks to win the NBA championship this year following the Kyrie trade

I might put some money down on the Mavs winning the championship this year. Cause what if? Yeah, that'd be, can you imagine that... the Dallas Mavericks are world champions.

The Mavericks failed to qualify for the playoffs in 2023.

Duke is officially back after snapping their losing streak against North Carolina

Who's back is Duke? They snap their losing streak. Their two game losing streaks [against] North Carolina over the weekend... they're one and oh in the post coach K era against North Carolina.

Duke finished the season 27-9, winning the ACC tournament, but lost in the second round of the NCAA tournament. Whether they are 'back' is subjective.

The Buffalo Bills will reach at least one Super Bowl during the Josh Allen window

I think they'll be in one, at least one. Cause [Josh Allen] is really good. And he was hurt... but they're the best three [Mahomes, Burrow, Allen]. I'm very confident that they'll [get in].

Josh Allen's window is still open. As of the end of the 2024 season, the Bills have not yet reached a Super Bowl with Allen.

Andy Reid will coach the Chiefs for at least five more years

I would think... Will Mahomes play more than five more years? Yes. Let's hope so. I'd be surprised if, if [Andy Reid] is not driven by... where am I going? If I have [Mahomes] and I have this set up.

Andy Reid is still coaching the Chiefs as of early 2025. We need to see if he reaches the 5-year mark from the 2023 take.

The Chiefs will beat the Eagles 29-26 in Super Bowl LVII

I'm gonna pick the Chiefs... Could it be 31 27? Yes it could. About 29, 26 having a schwam. Yeah, that's a schwam score... I'm gonna give you guys the nod with the score.

The Chiefs won Super Bowl LVII 38-35. Berman correctly predicted the winner but the score was incorrect.
