Daniel Jones winning the Colts QB job is a decision made under duress by Shane Steichen to save his job

I believe this is a decision made under duress by Shane Steichen. He [is] very much on the Hot Seat. And he basically is in the worst place you wanna be is an organization where it's like, I'm gonna get fired. I gotta find a way to eke out like six or seven wins. And Anthony Richardson has struggled... But Daniel Jones gives you a higher floor.

Daniel Jones is currently the Giants QB in reality, and Shane Steichen has not benched Richardson for him. This appears to be a satirical 'future' segment.

Daniel Jones will be serviceable for the Colts and can win eight games

Daniel Jones, when I say he is gonna be good, I, I would be shocked if he was like a, a pro bowl level quarterback, but I think he could be serviceable... I don't think he's going to be one of the better quarterbacks in the AFC, but I do think he could be good enough to win like eight games.

Daniel Jones does not play for the Colts; this is a satirical scenario within the episode's context.

The Super Bowl should be played in London to make it a bigger global event

It's a football field. It's the same dimensions, it's the same place. Hey, people are, have it so twisted where it's like, if we want this to be the biggest event in the world, we should have it in [London]... It's better for the sport. It's better for the show. It's better for us. It's better for everyone.

The Super Bowl remains in American cities for the foreseeable future (venues booked through 2027).

Giving the Super Bowl to another country is disgusting

The Super Bowl is the most important thing we do as a country. We, we create the Super Bowl every year. We have a season, a football season that creates the Super Bowl. To give that to another country is disgusting. I'm disgusted with you.

Subjective opinion on the cultural significance of the game.

The Patriots will return to the Super Bowl before the Commanders

We'll be in a Super Bowl before the Commanders. No, we [will].

Neither team has reached a Super Bowl since this take was made (2025).

Number 47 is a terrible number for a quarterback

Great brand. Terrible number for a quarterback. Bear's a bad start. You can't. Big guy. You put, you put harder earned money on a, on a team and you see a quarterback coming out wearing number 47.

Terry McLaurin will sign his new contract today

I think Terry [McLaurin] is going to sign my prediction. My official prediction. I think he's signing today. Whoa. I think he's signing on Wednesday... The crazy bird inside my own brain is telling me he's going to sign today.

McLaurin's real contract extension happened in 2022. In this episode's alternate timeline, the signing outcome is unknown.

LeBron James isn't focused on basketball because he's golfing too much

My Hot Seat is LeBron James. It's been the off season. You know, he, he's old. He, he probably should be taking more time to get ready and prepared and get his body ready... and he's just spent the whole summer golfing. He's just not locked in. He's not focused on the task at hand.

LeBron's longevity suggests his training regimen is fine, and there's no evidence golf has hurt his play.

Justin Herbert will have a breakout season because he's dating Madison Beer

I agree. I think this is actually Justin Herbert's breakout season. Yeah. Yeah. I like this like getting the hot girlfriend. He's now he's around.

Justin Herbert is not publicly known to be dating Madison Beer; this is part of the episode's rumor/future mill.

Obama calls 'bullshit fouls' in pickup basketball

I heard from someone that's hooped with him [Obama]... I heard that He calls bullshit fouls... In pickup. It is Mark against his person. No, absolutely... Weak ass fouls and pick up basketball.

While unverified, this is a recurring rumor in DC basketball circles; however, without video or multiple primary sources, it remains a claim.

Being an American soccer fan is the 'worst kind of guy you could be'

Being an American soccer fan is like, it's the, it's just the worst kind of guy you could be. Really? It's just the most [lame]. I live in Brooklyn, and I like footy. Like, it's just like shut up, you know.

Purely a subjective social critique.

LeBron winning in the bubble didn't feel the same as a real title

When we won, won in the bubble. I've said this before, but like, I like looked into my heart like 30 seconds later I was like, it doesn't feel the same with him [LeBron]. Yeah. It really doesn't feel the same with him.

Subjective feeling on the value of a championship.

Corner camping is a legitimate and awesome strategy in Call of Duty

I think that's awesome. Yeah, it's great. You find a good spot where you kill... corner camping. I ended up winning. It was great.
