Jaden Daniels is the fourth best quarterback in the NFL

I think that Jaden Daniels is the [fourth] best quarterback in the NFL. It's around fifth... it's fourth.

Hot TakeFootballFireSubjective
While Daniels had an incredible rookie season winning OROY, placing him 4th overall above veterans like Mahomes, Jackson, Allen, and Burrow is highly subjective and controversial.

Deshaun Watson has to be benched

Deshaun Watson has to be benched. There was a moment in this game where I was like, holy fuck. How is this guy still playing? He doesn't want to go for it on fourth down... he stinks at football.

OpinionFootballMedium
Watson was eventually benched (due to injury/poor play) and the Browns' offense improved significantly with other quarterbacks.

Joe Flacco gives the Colts their best chance to win over Anthony Richardson

You gotta say that Flacco gives you your best chance [to win]... Flacco's the best. And it's so much fun watching him.

OpinionFootballMedium
Statistically, the Colts offense moved better under Flacco in 2024, leading to Shane Steichen briefly benching Richardson for Flacco later in the season.

The 'Lions Hangover' is a real betting trend where teams lose the week after playing Detroit

Lions hangovers. I think it's a real thing... Rams played the Lions, then lost. Buccaneers beat the Lions, then lost. Cardinals lost to Lions, then lost. Seahawks lost to Lions, now they lose to the Giants.

Fact ClaimFootballMedium
The trend held up for several weeks in early 2024, providing a profitable betting angle until it was widely recognized.

Bronny James is not an NBA-caliber player

Bronny James... he's not an NBA player. It's not going well... everything he was doing was bad. Really, really bad.

OpinionBasketballMedium
Bronny spent most of his rookie season in the G-League after struggling significantly in limited NBA minutes, supporting the idea he wasn't ready.
