The 2020 Wild Card weekend was the most thrilling one in history

That was an insane, insane wild card weekend. Probably, I wouldn't say the best wild card weekend because I honestly just can't remember all the wild card weekends off the top of my head. But it was probably the most thrilling.

This is subjective but grounded in the fact that it was the first time since the 1970 merger that two Wild Card games in the same season went to overtime.

Josh Allen is like Brett Favre with ADD

He was playing like a little kid just hopped up on sugar, just running around, making plays. He was like Brett Favre if Brett Favre had ADD.

The comparison is a matter of opinion regarding playing style.

The Patriots dynasty is not over despite losing to the Titans

The season is finished. The dynasty is not done. ... I don't see Brady going anywhere else. I understand that it's the first time in his career he can do whatever he wants, but realistically, it's one of those things where you can do whatever you want, but you don't want to leave your job.

Tom Brady left the Patriots for the Buccaneers in March 2020, and the Patriots failed to win another Super Bowl in the post-Brady era, effectively ending the dynasty.

Jameis Winston is worth more money than Tom Brady right now

Who's worth more money, Jameis Winston or Tom Brady? Jameis. ... He's just got more years. Yeah, he's 26. And he's a future Hall of Famer.

Jameis Winston became a career backup shortly after this while Brady won another Super Bowl. Winston is not tracking toward the Hall of Fame.

I would rather have a bad quarterback than draft Tua Tagovailoa

I don't want to deal with the bullshit media for like a year being like Tua and Tua and Tua. ... I'd rather have a bad quarterback than a good quarterback. ... A Big Ten, some Big Ten, or like random MAC quarterback.

The Patriots eventually drafted MAC QB Mac Jones in 2021, and while Tua has faced media scrutiny, he has been significantly more successful than Jones.

The Saints would have won if they kept Taysom Hill on the field

But if Taysom Hill stays out there, they win that game. ... Taysom Hill was electric. He was the best player on the field.

Taysom Hill did have a massive impact (passing, rushing, receiving), while Brees struggled with turnovers. However, we can't definitively know the outcome if Hill played every snap.

Kirk Cousins will fail against the 49ers in the divisional round

Kirk Cousins wasn't incredible in this game. Oh, he's going to shit down his leg in San Francisco in a week.

The Vikings lost 27-10 to the 49ers on January 11, 2020. Kirk Cousins had only 172 yards and one interception, largely failing to move the offense.

Jadeveon Clowney's hit on Carson Wentz was assault

Jadavion Clowney with the cheapest hit on Carson Wentz concusses him. ... Anyone who's calling Carson Wentz injury prone off of that is fucking bullshit because Jadavion Clowney assaulted him.

While the hit was controversial and led to a concussion, Clowney was not fined by the NFL, suggesting they viewed it as a legal hit, making Big Cat's 'assault' claim a matter of opinion.

Sean Payton will leave the Saints for the Dallas Cowboys and take Taysom Hill with him

Ooh, what about... You think what I'm thinking? Sean Payton. Sean Payton just lost today. It's true. He's been linked. He's got family in Dallas. ... Taysom Hill goes with him. Like Al Pacino and Willie Beeman.

Sean Payton stayed with the Saints through 2021 and eventually joined the Broncos in 2023. Mike McCarthy was hired by the Cowboys in 2020.

The Washington Capitals will win the 2020 Stanley Cup

My who's back of the week is the Washington Capitals. So it is 2020. It is even year bullshit for the Capitals. They win the Stanley Cup every year. They won in 2018. They're about to win it again.

The Tampa Bay Lightning won the 2020 Stanley Cup. The Capitals were eliminated in the first round.

Derrick Henry would rush for 400 yards in an NFL game if given 57 carries

If he played the worst team in the NFL, he could probably get, if he ran him 57 times, he could probably get 400 yards.

The NFL record for rushing yards in a game is 296 (Adrian Peterson) on 30 carries. 400 yards would require over 7 yards per carry on 57 attempts, which is statistically improbable but theoretically possible for Henry in his prime.
