The Rams look like they could win the Super Bowl

The Rams look like they could win the Super Bowl based off of tonight. Well, Rams look pretty good. It was very refreshing to see Matt Stafford play on a competent team for a change.

The Rams won Super Bowl LVI at the end of this season.

Jalen Hurts might be the franchise guy for the Eagles

Jalen Hurts. Might be the guy. And so week one is a big like, oh, we probably should have paid attention to this a little more. So I'm a believer in Jalen Hurts now.

Hurts led the Eagles to a Super Bowl the following year and became an MVP finalist.

I officially feel bad for Matt Ryan

I want it on the record, I officially feel bad for Matt Ryan. I feel bad for Matt Ryan, especially after watching what Matt Stafford got. Matt Stafford is like the middle-aged puppy that got adopted. Matt Ryan is a slightly older dog and no one's adopting him. And he's stuck there.

Ryan was traded to Indianapolis in 2022, so he was eventually 'adopted' by another team.

Whenever Mike Tomlin is an underdog, you must auto-bet on him

Remind me, I let my bias get the best of me, obviously, because I do want the Bills to do well, but remind me that any time Mike Tomlin's ever an underdog, we just need to auto-bet him because he is – that's just what he does.

Mike Tomlin has one of the best records against the spread as an underdog in NFL history.

Kirk Cousins is officially a 'bad asset' due to his contract

He's officially bad. He's taking resources from everyone else. He's breathing our air. He's a bad asset. It's tough to have everything right around him when he's taking up such a huge percentage of the cap.

This is subjective, but Cousins' high cap hit relative to playoff success remained a major debate point throughout his Vikings tenure.

Kyler Murray is the most 'video game' player since Michael Vick

I think Kyler Murray is the most real-life video game character since Michael Vick. When you watch him run around, it looks like if you had just created a player in a video game and made him 99 speed. It's not even running forward, it's just spinning and running backwards.

Subjective comparison of playing styles.

I am officially 'cured' of believing Carson Wentz can be good

Thankfully, I am finally cured of my 'Carson Wentz might still be good' disease. So I'm done with that, which is nice because it did cost me a lot of money last year. I just woke up one day and I was like, he sucks.

Wentz struggled in Indianapolis and was traded after one season, validating Big Cat's 'cure'.

Trevor Lawrence is officially a bust

I have one note for that game. Trevor Lawrence, all capitals, bust. I'm more of the mindset that it's fun to say that Trevor Lawrence is a bust.

While Lawrence hasn't lived up to 'generational' hype yet, he is far from a 'bust', having led the Jaguars to a playoff win in 2022.

Urban Meyer is going to ruin Trevor Lawrence

I'm in the camp of the Jaguars are going to ruin Trevor Lawrence and it starts with Urban Meyer. This Urban Meyer thing. They looked undisciplined. We've heard the reports that people are like, yeah, it kind of sucks to have to play for a guy like Urban Meyer in pro.

Urban Meyer was fired in December 2021 after a series of scandals and poor play, nearly 'ruining' the rookie season of the #1 overall pick.

Odell Beckham Jr. is 'addition by subtraction' for the Cleveland Browns

I also think that there is some truth to Odell Beckham being addition by subtraction. 100% true. The Browns looked awesome today, with the exception of that fumble.

The Browns offense struggled later in the season and Mayfield was eventually replaced, suggesting the issues were deeper than just OBJ.

Mac Jones will conservatively win three Super Bowls

Conservatively, three. Three plus, though, is probably what I would expect. Dynasty officially back on? Yeah. Well, you've got to win the first one.

Mac Jones was traded to the Jaguars in 2024 without winning a playoff game, let alone three Super Bowls.

Aaron Rodgers is 'mentally retired' and checked out of the Packers

I think he's still playing, but he's technically retired mentally. He's checked out. I would say retired. Aaron Rodgers has mentally retired from the Green Bay Packers. I saw it with my own two eyes. No chance does this come back and haunt me, this clip.

Aaron Rodgers won the NFL MVP award for the 2021 season, proving he was very much not 'checked out'.
