Myles Garrett will be suspended for the rest of the season

Myles Garrett. You lost your mind. You're going to be suspended for the rest of the season... Myles Garrett probably got I would imagine he's gone for the rest of the year.

Myles Garrett was indeed suspended for the remainder of the 2019 season (6 games plus playoffs).

Mason Rudolph is a terrible quarterback and not the guy in Pittsburgh

I wanted to start the show by saying Mason Rudolph has a huge fucking face and is a terrible quarterback and is not the guy in Pittsburgh. And he's the classic quarterback where every time he drops back if you're a Steelers fan or you bet on the Steelers, you're like, oh fuck. Oh fuck. Oh fuck only bad things can happen.

Mason Rudolph was eventually benched for Duck Hodges later in the season and has remained a backup for most of his career.

Carmelo Anthony has been a hipster his entire career

I'm actually thinking his entire career Carmelo has been a hipster. Yeah. He dropped out of college. I went to go chill in Denver for a while got real high tried to go to New York because that's where all the Arts and stuff are happened... his greatest accomplishments all happen when he was traveling abroad.

This is a satirical characterization and cannot be objectively proven, though the parallels are funny.

Derek Carr is close to keeping his job long-term in Las Vegas

I've actually think Derek Carr is very close to keeping his job in his house next to Jon Gruden in Las Vegas.

Derek Carr remained the Raiders' starting quarterback through the 2022 season, surviving several years in Vegas under Gruden.

If the Raiders beat the Bengals by 20 points, they are a playoff team

I'm kind of in on the Raiders making the playoffs... if the Raiders win by 20 points or more I think playoff Town. Yeah. I'm on playoff Town Raiders.

The Raiders beat the Bengals 17-10 (not by 20+) and ultimately finished 7-9, missing the playoffs.

The Patriots will beat the Eagles by at least seven points

I'm going to take the Patriots... minus three and a half. It is the classic. I think I wouldn't be surprised if they lose. So I'm going to take them because I mean they'll probably win by 7 plus.

The Patriots beat the Eagles 17-10, winning by exactly 7 points.

If the Bears beat the Rams, they are going to the playoffs

I legitimately 100% have bought into the fact that if the Bears beat the Rams on Sunday night, they're going to the playoffs.

The Bears lost to the Rams 17-7 and finished the season 8-8, missing the playoffs.

The Giants will give Eli Manning a farewell game on December 29th

I'd be tempted at some point to hold Eli Manning in my back pocket because I feel like he's going to get at least one farewell game... It will not surprise me at all if there's a quote-unquote injury to Daniel Jones that really wouldn't keep him from playing, but let Eli Manning finish out the season.

Eli Manning did start two more games (Dec 9 and Dec 15) due to a genuine Daniel Jones ankle injury, but Jones returned for the Dec 29 finale. Eli's 'farewell' effectively happened earlier.

The NFL arranged Colin Kaepernick's workout as a legal strategy to prevent a second lawsuit

I really do think that they are worried they're going to get another lawsuit filed by Colin Kaepernick... It doesn't feel like a genuine attempt to help the guy. It feels like some sort of strategy... to make the league look better.

The workout ended in a location dispute and Kaepernick remained unsigned, supporting the theory that it was more of a PR/legal maneuver than a genuine job offer.
