Saquon Barkley deserves to be in the MVP conversation

Saquon Barkley deserves to be in the MVP conversation. He's incredible. I mean that is abundantly clear at this point. They're just kicking the shit out of everybody.

Barkley was a top MVP candidate for the final months of the season, consistently in the top 3-5 in betting odds.

The Commanders aren't a very good football team right now

The Commanders aren't a very good football team right now. The offense looks disjointed. It looks like chaos. They look nervous, panicky on offense. This might be the Kliff Kingsbury cliff that happens. Seems to happen every season.

The Commanders finished the season 7-10 after a 7-2 start, confirming PFT's fear of a late-season collapse.

Gerard Mayo is probably not the guy for the Patriots

Is Gerard Mayo the guy? Probably not. The defense is bad. He is a defensive coach. Why not get an offensive coach to work with our phenom quarterback [Drake Maye]?

The Patriots struggled significantly under Mayo in his first year, though his long-term status remains to be seen.

It wouldn't surprise me if the Commanders miss the playoffs

I said out loud, it wouldn't surprise me if we [the Commanders] missed the playoffs. Because we're not playing—we were a 10 and a half point favorite during this game.

Despite the hot start, the Commanders missed the playoffs after a late-season losing streak.

The Detroit Lions are the best team in football

Until further notice, they're my team. Until they have a stinker of a game, I'm just gonna blindly believe that the Detroit Lions are gonna steamroll everyone. I think it's safe to say they are the best team in football.

The Lions were the #1 seed in the NFC and widely considered the best team for much of the season.

The Buccaneers will find a way to get into the playoffs

I said it two weeks ago. I think they're [the Buccaneers] going to find a way to get into this playoff. I don't know—it might be at your expense PFT, but it also could be they win the NFC South.

The Buccaneers eventually secured a wildcard spot/playoff berth.

Bo Nicks should win Rookie of the Year

I was gonna say that I think as of right now, Bo Nicks should win Rookie of the Year. He's been better for a longer period of time than Jayden, even though [Jayden Daniels] got off to that electric start.

Jayden Daniels won the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year award, though Nicks finished strong.

I don't think the Texans are a good football team

I really walk away from this game being like, are the Texans good? I don't think—I don't know if they are. I just—they're just not a very good team overall. Like they're—they're gonna win the AFC South, but I don't trust them at all.

The Texans won the division but struggled with consistency throughout the second half of the season.

I'm officially nervous that the Packers are going to make a run

I'm officially on—I'm nervous watch. I'm nervous that they're [the Packers] going to make a run. I change my—Packers fans know me well enough that I start to change my tone when I start to get really nervous.

The Packers indeed made the playoffs and remained a top NFC contender.

Caleb Williams is my personal Rookie of the Year

I actually think Caleb Williams, he's my personal rookie of the year because what he was able to do with Shane Waldron as a coach is maybe the most impressive thing ever.

While Williams improved, Jayden Daniels was the near-unanimous winner.

Bryce Young is back

Chiefs 30, Panthers 27. Bryce Young. Is he back? Dude, Bryce Young—I think he might be back. He was awesome today. And, and I know awesome is relative... he looked composed, didn't make any big mistakes.

Bryce Young showed flashes late in 2024 but remained far from being established as a franchise starter.
