The Over (49) is a good play for Raiders vs. Bengals

I think that the, the over is a good play in this game. I think we're going to see a shitload of points right now. It's at 49. Okay. Neither one of these teams is spectacular on defense and they both kind of just strike me as teams that they, they panic later on in games.

The final score was Bengals 26, Raiders 19, totaling 45 points. The under hit.

The Eagles will cover the spread against the Buccaneers

I think the Eagles are gonna cover. Yeah. I think it's one of those matchup things to back that up. I like the Eagles they're kind of in there. The team that's being disrespected the most... I think the weather is going to contribute and I think the bucks are going to win by six.

The Buccaneers won 31-15 (16 point margin). The Eagles did not cover the +8.5 spread.

Tom Brady is 0-5 against the spread against the NFC East in the playoffs

The stat that I have that backs that up is Tom Brady has owned five against the spread against the NFC east in the playoffs. So his own five, he's got he's two and three straight up.

At the time, this was correct: 2 losses to Giants (SB 42, 46), loss to Eagles (SB 52), and wins over Eagles (2004 SB) and Washington (2020) where he failed to cover high spreads.

The 49ers could beat anyone in the NFC

I think the 49ers can they're there the team in the NFC that like they could beat anyone. You know what I mean? They're they're the team that has the lowest seed where I'm like, yup. If you told me the 49ers ended up in the super bowl. I wouldn't, I wouldn't think that's a crazy.

The 49ers went on to beat the Cowboys and the #1 seed Packers to reach the NFC Championship Game, proving they could beat anyone in the conference.

There will be a dildo on the field in Buffalo for the Patriots game

I have a prediction. Yes. I think there's going to be a dildo on the field again. No, no. I just have a feeling. I got a feeling they're going to be on their best behavior.

No dildo was reported on the field during the Bills-Patriots Wild Card game.

Someone will score four touchdowns in the Patriots vs. Bills game

I've got a cool number thing on this game. The spread is four. Yup. The temperature is going to be four. The over-under is 44. Whoa... maybe someone will score four touchdowns.

Dawson Knox scored 2, Devin Singletary scored 2. No single player scored 4, though the team scored 7 total.

Kicking the field goal down 8 in the 2020 NFCCG was the best decision for the team

I'll tell you what you look at, how many plays inside the red zone, especially you're talking about eight plus are successful in that situation. And I just felt like it was best. I thought our defense was playing well and thought we could get the stop. And unfortunately you're damned if you do damned, if you don't... had I be in that same situation again, I really do think that was the best thing for us.

This is a subjective coaching philosophy choice, though widely criticized by analysts.

I am officially mortal locking the Packers to win the Super Bowl

I'm going to do something I never thought I would do... but you guys are gonna win the super bowl this year. It's pretty much guaranteed. I might actually mortal lock it. If you win the super bowl, I'd like you to come back on. Pardon? My take. And I will, I will eat shit.

The Packers lost their first playoff game to the 49ers (13-10) in the Divisional Round.

I thought my 4th quarter fumble against Alabama was an incomplete pass

Whenever I thought it was going to be like intentional grounding the whole time, because it didn't, it didn't go past the line of scrimmage. I didn't think it was a fumble until they said it was a fumble after they reviewed it. I guess it was one of those things. It was so close that whatever call was made on the field was going to stand.

The play was officially ruled a fumble after review, making his in-game assumption incorrect.

I want my mind to get duller as I get older, rather than sharper

I never want to do anything that sharpens my mind. I want it to get duller and duller as days go by... Gary V being like learn something new every day. No, come on. I'm just trying to just get up, wake up and then go to sleep.

Inherently a satirical life choice.

Exercise is the key to mental well-being

Exercise is the key mental wellbeing. In all 23 years, that's probably my greatest [lesson].

Joe Judge might have gotten a raw deal from the Giants

In fact I'm I think Joe judge might've gotten a raw deal. My new theory on Joe, Joe is he got a completely raw deal. And the plan was always for him to come back next year. But when he got the reins to the, to the team, they essentially said, all right, you're going to run the show... I think they didn't give Joe judge and Gettleman as much room to work with as they said they were going to.

Subjective interpretation of internal team dynamics.

Joe Judge intentionally tried to get fired by the Giants

I still am convinced that he tried to get fired because if you look at the timeline, he, his job was guaranteed for next year. And then he completely lost his mind saying the weirdest shit, QB sneaks. And then obviously the finale of saying he wants more power. I think he was essentially like, I want to get fired. I don't want to coach this team anymore.

Subjective interpretation of coach's intent.
