LeBron James is the greatest stat compiler of all time

Great job, LeBron. I'm happy for you. You know LeBron, he's had quite a week... kind of a ball hog. But that's fine. You, you are a stat compiler. You're the greatest stat compiler of all time.

While LeBron has played the most games and scored the most points, calling him 'just' a compiler is a subjective framing used to diminish his legacy in the GOAT debate.

LeBron James will wait to break the scoring record against the Bucks

The only thing he could say is if LeBron is a true historian of the game, he would wait to break it against the Bucks. The only other team that Kareem [Abdul-Jabbar] played for. So Lakers-Bucks playing on Thursday night. Maybe he does that.

LeBron James broke the record on February 7, 2023, against the Oklahoma City Thunder, not the Bucks.

Victor Wembanyama will be better than LeBron James was at his peak

We actually, we should get credit in the media because like we were so right about LeBron James we called it. And guess what I'm calling it right now? Wembanyama is gonna be great. Yeah. He's gonna be, he's gonna even be better than LeBron at his peaks.

Wembanyama has had an incredible start to his career (Rookie of the Year), but surpassing LeBron's peak (multiple MVPs and titles) remains a massive hill to climb and is currently pending/incorrect in the short term.

The Super Bowl is a 'can't lose' game for Nick Sirianni, not a 'must win'

I disagree. You think it's can't lose? They're Yeah, it's a can't lose. Because if you, if you lose, then what? ... If you're Nick Sirianni, you lose the Super Bowl, you're gonna be known as Super Bowl losing head coach. You can't, you cannot lose that game if you're Nick Sirianni.

Sirianni did lose the game and remained the coach, though he did technically become a 'Super Bowl losing head coach'.

The Eagles are in a 'can't lose' situation where everything makes too much sense

This is a can't lose. It's starting get to a point where I like the Eagles so much in this game that it's like there's no way that like there's no way this is going to happen. It makes too much sense that the Eagles are going to win this game.

The Eagles lost Super Bowl LVII to the Chiefs 38-35.

Tom Brady is not actually retired

This was my hot seat because I actually think it's hot seat. The Tom Brady retirement. He's not, he's spending an entire year off. He's basically admitting that he's not gonna start broadcasting games till 2024. He's not retired... This feels like he's just leaving the door a little bit open.

Tom Brady did not return to the NFL and transitioned to his broadcasting role as planned in 2024.

I'm the greatest defender ever for a single season or game

For one single game? Or are you talking about for one single season that which player would you want? Because that's different. I mean, I'm, I'm never gonna argue for the longevity of my career... But for one season or one game, I, I'll, I'll put myself in that argument.

Watt won 3 DPOY awards in 4 years; statistically, his 2014 season is widely considered one of the best in NFL history.

T.J. Watt will be a better player than me if he stays healthy

If he stays healthy and, and I, I hope he stays healthy and I hope he does. He'll break every record I got and he'll absolutely be a better player than me. There's no doubt for a single season, for a single, like being able to do everything. I I I won't give up that title.

T.J. Watt has already won a DPOY and holds elite sack numbers, but JJ's 20.5 sack seasons and multiple DPOY awards set a very high bar.

Luke Fickell is building a monster at the University of Wisconsin

Luke Fickell building a monster. Looking forward to that. ... We have more quarterbacks in the room now than we've had our entire history ever. I don't understand. I have no clue what's going on.

Fickell's first full season (2023) was underwhelming (7-6), but the verdict on his tenure 'building a monster' is still out.
