All Takes

It is more important for NFL teams to maintain rhythm by playing starters late in the season than it is to rest them

I think playing is the most important. I think what I learned throughout was timing and rhythm matter... so many times I thought we had the better team, but not playing up to those points, you got back out there, you kinda had to find the rhythm... I was much more about playing.

This is a perpetual debate in NFL strategy and is inherently subjective.

Derek Carr is hurting the Saints by playing at 80% while significantly injured

If you're not playing to the level that we need you to play to, you are hurting us... the game is played in the margins and there's too many good players, right? It's just too many dudes who are that good at 70, 80%. Man, you just ain't cutting it... When you're seeing guys at each other in repeated weeks, that's when you know something's really there.

The take is subjective expert analysis on team dynamics and performance impact.

Eric Bieniemy's absence is a major reason for the Chiefs' offensive struggles and lack of discipline

The enemy not being there, it matters. I'm not saying that Andy Reed and these guys aren't great coaches, but Bieniemy had some nastiness about him, right? He had some significant conversations with their players, whether that's Mahomes or other people. And with him not being there, it does get into a place where maybe some things have been allowed or tolerated to a different degree... I do think the enemy not being there hurts because those players in the room are ultimately the guys who have to execute it.

While the Chiefs won the Super Bowl, their regular season offense was statistically worse than in the Bieniemy years, supporting the 'struggles' part of the take.

The Eagles will "get right" and fix their issues over their final four regular season games

I said this on TV the other day, man, it drives me cra... like we've written the Eagles off really? They had two bad weeks. San Fran lost three in a row. These players can fix it. And, and I, I think the Eagles over these next four, you know, get right games, we'll get right and figure this thing out.

The Eagles completely collapsed, going 1-3 in their final four games with losses to the Seahawks, Cardinals, and Giants.

The Super Bowl will be a matchup between the 49ers and the Ravens

I'm gonna go... I think it's gonna be KC in Baltimore and the AFC, I think Baltimore's gonna go... and I think San Fran... I'm taking San Fran and Phi... I'm taking San Fran walking through it to play [the winner of the AFC].

The Ravens lost to the Chiefs in the AFC Championship game, so they did not make the Super Bowl.

Deebo Samuel is the most valuable player on the 49ers

I think Deebo Samuel... I think he's an MVP, right? Because if you see the way he plays and like look at their team when he's not on the field, it's as, it's as reflective as Tyreek Hill. Like this dude is, he is a freaking grown man, bro. And he is about it in all phases.

While Christian McCaffrey won Offensive Player of the Year, Deebo's unique value to the 49ers scheme makes this a persistent point of debate.
