The New York Jets should trade for Kirk Cousins

If you're the Jets, you gotta at least make a call about Kirk Cousins right now. I know they probably won't do it, but you have to ask the question... the Vikings have to admit, like, right now you're rebuilding.

The trade never happened; Kirk Cousins finished the season with the Vikings (before his Achilles injury) and the Jets stuck with Zach Wilson/Trevor Siemian.

Mike McDaniel should have kicked a field goal to break the NFL scoring record

Mike McDaniel should've kicked the field goal at the end of the game. This is chicken shit by McDaniel. I get you want like karma on your side... He should've kicked a field goal to score 73 points. Bullshit that he... it's more disrespectful to the Broncos that they just took a knee.

Subjective opinion on game etiquette and records.

The Dolphins offense is only stoppable by injuries or cold weather

What can stop [the Dolphins]? The only two things that come to my mind are injuries, which you never wanna see happen, and cold weather. You just have to, if you're a team in the AFC, you gotta be like, hopefully it gets so cold that they can't do this.

The Dolphins' season did end in a very cold Wild Card game where their offense was stifled, and they suffered major defensive injuries down the stretch.

Justin Tucker is washed up

I think Justin Tucker's washed up. He missed a 61 yard field goal. Everybody thought it was in... but yeah, it was like a yard short. He's washed up.

Justin Tucker remained one of the best kickers in the league, though he did have a slightly down year by his own astronomical standards.

Derrick Henry has officially hit 'the cliff'

Derek Henry, I think today was his 1800th carry... it bums me out to even say this, but part of me thinks that it might be happening... he doesn't have the same pop. I hate that I have to even bring it up, but I feel like the cliff might be here.

Henry's efficiency continued to dip in 2023 (4.2 ypc, his lowest since 2017), though he still managed over 1,100 yards.

Andy Dalton is currently better than Bryce Young

Andy Dalton can still play... and I think the Panthers were live in this game and I think it was because of Andy Dalton. Like, again, I'm taking the long-term approach for Bryce Young, but Andy Dalton is better than Bryce Young right now. Like that, that's just a fact.

Dalton threw for 361 yards in his lone start; Bryce Young didn't surpass 312 yards in any game and struggled throughout a 2-14 season.

Swifties secretly want Taylor Swift's relationships to fail for the music

I think secretly Taylor Swift's own fan base is sabotaging her happiness... Swifties want Taylor to be happy on their own terms. They don't want Taylor Swift to find genuine happiness. They want her to be happy because she's found empowerment after a disastrous breakup.

This is a subjective observation of fan behavior and motivation.

Mark Davis hired Josh McDaniels to get Tom Brady's help with inheritance taxes

Mark Davis, we all know that he's probably not gonna be able to afford the inheritance tax on the Raiders... Do you think that he hired Josh McDaniels as the head coach to get Tom Brady involved in the ownership group so that Tom Brady could then contribute to the tax bill when the time comes?

McDaniels was fired weeks later, and Brady's ownership stake was about his interest in the franchise, not a tax scheme.

The 2023 Chicago Bears will go 0-17

My overly direct take is that the Bears are gonna go oh and 17.

The Bears finished 7-10, winning their first game in Week 5.

The Chicago Bears will have the first and second picks in the 2024 NFL Draft

I think the Bears might have the first and second pick in the draft. That's my overly direct take.

The Bears did get the #1 pick (via Carolina), but their own pick ended up being #9.

Russell Wilson will be benched this year

I also have a direct take, overly direct take. I think Russell Wilson will get benched this year. I do, I do. Sean Payton has no allegiance to him.

Russell Wilson was benched for the final two games of the season by Sean Payton.

The Dolphins are guaranteed an AFC Championship spot if Tua stays healthy

My overly direct take is that if Tua Tagovailoa stays healthy, his Dolphins are guaranteed a spot in the AFC Championship. Guaranteed. If he stays healthy, fully healthy. If he doesn't miss any games.

Tua played every game, but the Dolphins lost in the Wild Card round to the Chiefs.
