The Chiefs are playing sustainable, renewable football that will carry through the playoffs

You know what I think the [Chiefs] are doing right now, they're playing sustainable football, Big Cat. Yeah. This type of football can play football. Yeah. It's green. It's renewable football. This shit can be carried through throughout the playoffs. When it gets cold outside, they don't have to score 45 points a game to win all the time.

The Chiefs did make the AFC Championship game that year, proving their defense-heavy mid-season turn was effective for a playoff run.

It is time for an open and honest dialogue about Teddy Bridgewater not being a franchise starter

Teddy doesn't look great. And he's so easy to root for too because of the injury and all that stuff. And everywhere he goes, people seem to love him. But I think it's time for America to have an open and honest dialogue about Teddy Bridgewater. I don't think that John Elway is going to stick with Teddy going into [next year].

Bridgewater was not the starter in Denver the following year as they traded for Russell Wilson.

The Lions are not the worst team in the NFL despite their record

The Lions are not the worst team in the NFL, even though they are, they, it took them this long to get the win. Like if you look at point differential, the fact they've been in every game, all those things like the lines are not the worst team in the NFL. And finally they get a win.

By point differential and DVOA, the Jaguars were generally considered the worst team in the NFL that season, supporting Big Cat's view.

The loss to the Lions is the point of no return for the Mike Zimmer era in Minnesota

It's over probably for the Mike Zimmer era in Minnesota. It's probably, I don't know what they can do with Kirk Cousins, but this did feel like the loss that like the point of no return in terms of losses.

Mike Zimmer was fired on January 10, 2022, shortly after the regular season ended.

At their peak, nobody in the NFL can beat the Chargers

If they're playing their best game, their best possible game, nobody can beat them. I think at their peak, they're better than any other team in the NFL, but the problem is they, it doesn't show up. It doesn't show up all the time, but when it does fall together, it's a beautiful thing to watch.

This is a subjective peak-power argument, though they missed the playoffs entirely this season, undermining the idea they were the league's 'best'.

Matt Ryan would be a perfect fit for the Eagles next year

Matt Ryan next year, going home to Philadelphia. Kind of perfect... They have a good offensive line, they have some weapons... he's clearly not dead, he's not done, but the Falcons are not in a place where he should be their quarterback next year. So where like similar to Phil Rivers, similar to the end of the career of Brett Favre... Matt Ryan would be such a good fit in Philadelphia.

Matt Ryan was traded to the Indianapolis Colts, not the Eagles, for the 2022 season.

The Cardinals are a legitimate Super Bowl contending team

The Cardinals are good. The Cardinals are legitimate Superbowl contending team. I'll say that.

The Cardinals collapsed down the stretch, finishing 11-6 and losing in the Wild Card round, making them less of a 'legitimate contender' than they seemed in early December.

The Jaguars traveling to New England on January 2nd will be the biggest quit spot of all time

If the Patriots have any meaning in that game, they need to win that game. That spread can not be big enough, honestly... That Jaguars team going to New England on January 2nd... that has to be the biggest quit spot of all time. Urban Meyer is going to get hypothermia on the sidelines.

The Patriots beat the Jaguars 50-10 on January 2nd, 2022. It was a massive blowout, just as Big Cat predicted.

TJ Watt is the Defensive Player of the Year

TJ Watt is defensive player of the year. And I know there's a lot of guys out there that could probably win it. He had three and a half sacks today... TJ Watt now has played 10 games this year. He has 16 sacks in 10 games. That's insane... TJ Watt definitely has moments where he just completely takes over a game... There's my vote.

TJ Watt won the 2021 NFL Defensive Player of the Year award, tying the single-season sack record.

Cincinnati can give Alabama a good game in the playoffs because of their secondary

I'm actually already going to do it again because I actually think Cincinnati could give Alabama a good game because their secondary is that fucking good. And they have a quarterback that is like, just doesn't let anyone catch anything.

Alabama dominated Cincinnati 27-6 in the Cotton Bowl semifinal.
