The Falcons won't blow any more games because the internet has figured out the joke

I have a theory PFT as soon as the internet catches on to something that's when it's done. And if you watch the timeline and everyone talking in the fourth quarter, like, how are the Falcons going to blow this, right? Falcons aren't going to blow any more games now Falcons might even go on a run because as soon as everyone starts figuring it out and making the same joke.

The Falcons continued to be a mediocre team with frequent late-game struggles, though the '98% win probability' collapses became slightly less frequent for a period.

Chasing gambling news regarding COVID-19 absences never works out

I feel like it never works out if you immediately bet Boston College for Saturday Clemson's not going to win. Like 55 instead of 45 and so like it will just blow up in your face. I just chasing it just never works. For some reason. You just can't like whenever you think you got to beat on it. You just don't

Clemson only beat Boston College by 6 points (34-28) in the game Lawrence missed, so anyone betting the heavy favorite despite the news would have lost ATS.

The Browns are a better team without Odell Beckham Jr.

We are right in the middle of the takes of the Browns better without Odell Beckham. I don't even know if it's not any I think that they kind of are... Baker is a better quarterback without Odell Beckham. Yes. Yes. They try to force the ball to O'Dell and now Baker doesn't have to worry about that and he can spread the ball around.

The Browns offense did technically perform better and reached the playoffs after OBJ's injury in 2020, but the overall talent loss is debated.

You said you hated to no one of my best friends in this world... Jared has the experience. Aryans he's been there before this time. He's gonna get revenge.

The Rams lost in the Divisional Round to the Packers in Jan 2021. They won the Super Bowl the following year (2021 season) with Matthew Stafford, not Jared Goff.

The Seahawks defense is soft

I'm going to say that I think that the the Seahawks defense I'm going to use the S word. I think they're soft. I'll link their sauce sauce. Yeah. Yeah. I'm sorry, you know, what's terrible, you know, I'm doing right now. I'm giving side I to I'm throwing shade. Yeah all the s words for Seattle's defense know they're really I think that the Niners come out and just absolutely take their soul from them.

The Seahawks beat the 49ers 37-27 that weekend, though their defense was statistically one of the worst in the league for much of the 2020 season.

I've got a torn rotator cuff the last two years and I can only close bit dumbbell, press that's it. I can't miss Preston more has been about two years. So maybe I can get it fixed. But once I get it fixed, I guarantee I'll do it [bench three plates] again. I'll let you break the story of my torn rotator.

Subjective/Unverifiable, but fits his legendary 'football guy' persona.

Wisconsin's football season is effectively over

My fire. First two of them Wisconsin's football season is over pretty much that sucked

Wisconsin only played 7 games that season, finishing 4-3. They were never in contention for anything major due to the interruptions.
