Diana Russini likely leaked the Sedona hotel photos herself to publicly announce her hatred for the New York Jets.

I also kind of think she leaked this article. Like who gives a fuck about Mike Vrabel going out in the middle of the desert? Who leaks that? And then what better way to announce your hate for the Jets than being like, I'm hanging out with Mike Vrabel pants on a rooftop.

This is a speculative theory about internal motivations and leaks that likely can't be verified.

Arizona will win the national championship over St. John's

Geno Smith is still a capable starter despite his poor reputation on the Jets

Geno Smith can still play. He beat the Patriots last year. Bad year, I don't know what we're talking about. I think it's a good deal. I just don't know why people say Kevin O'Connell could fix him but because he signs with the Jets, people say he won't be good.

Geno's performance as a starter for the Jets in the 2026 season will determine if this was a 'good deal'.

The Jets fleeced the Titans in the T'Vondre Sweat for Jermaine Johnson trade

I think the Jets fleece the Titans. I think it's a win-win, win-win win plus for the Jets. I'll say win plus... So they traded for [T'Vondre] Sweat. He has two years left on his contract. Jermaine Johnson only had one year left on his contract.

The trade's success depends on the long-term production of both players relative to their contract status.

Jets owner Woody Johnson is a failure who needs to go

Woody Johnson just, you know, he's gotta go... He's in the [Epstein] files. Yeah, he's in them... Everything they do is lose so you gotta take stuff away.

This is a fan opinion on ownership and cannot be objectively proven.

The Ravens will trade Lamar Jackson to the Jets this offseason

I spoke it into existence... Good organization, they think their guy's over the hump might have injuries. Send him to a bad organization who's needy, haven't made the playoffs in 15 years, has a lot of draft capital. Oh my God, that'd be so sick.

A bold offseason prediction for 2026.

Jayden Daniels is the worst quarterback from the 2024 draft class

My preemptive take of the year was right. Commanders would miss a playoffs and Jayden Daniels be the worst out of all the quarterbacks in 2024. [Big Cat: 'Michael Penix?'] He looked pretty good before the injury.

By most statistical measures and eye tests, Daniels was far from the 'worst' of the class, having won OROY in many circles.

The Jets are going to lose the rest of their games this season

We're going to lose out. We have Saints next week, then it's Patriots, Bills. This team is dog shit. We can't beat Dick.

Memes predicted the Jets would lose their remaining games (Saints, Patriots, Bills). The Jets lost all three: Saints 29-6, Patriots 42-10, and Bills 35-8, finishing 3-14.

Lamar Jackson sucks and the Ravens would only get a fourth and fifth-round pick for him if they traded him right now.

Lamar [Jackson] sucks... [The Ravens would only get] like a fourth and a fifth [round pick if they traded him right now].

Lamar Jackson is a multi-time MVP whose trade value would be multiple first-round picks; Memes' valuation is objectively incorrect.

The New York Jets will acquire Lamar Jackson from the Ravens next season

I do go to bed and I just thinking who's the next quarterback will be next season. And right now we're on Lamar Jackson... Ravens don't make the playoffs. Raven's good organization. They've moved on from quarterbacks in the past... we got like three years of Lamar.

Lamar Jackson remained with the Ravens, making this a classic 'Jets fan fever dream'.

Derrick Henry is officially washed and the Ravens should move to a running back by committee

I would probably go running back by committee if I was the Ravens. I think Derrick Henry's time is done... He just does nothing and all the other running backs are at least explosive.

Henry's performance following this game would determine if he truly 'hit the wall' or was just hampered by Lamar's injury.

The Kansas City Chiefs will miss the playoffs

Memes, did you say that maybe the Chiefs won't make the playoffs? I did. You wanna stand on that? Sure. Okay. Chiefs won't make the playoffs. Oh, you're saying the Chiefs won't make the playoffs. Whoa.

The Chiefs finished 6-11, missing the playoffs for the first time since 2014, largely due to Mahomes' ACL tear in Week 15.

The Jets will not lose another game for the rest of the season

Justin Fields is finished as a starter in the NFL and plays like a 'scared puppy'.

Justin Fields got benched in this game. Feels like that's done right? Yeah, that's done. He's he's just a scared puppy out there. ... every single defense is just setting new single season records when he's playing in sacks.

Justin Fields was signed by the Jets but went 2-7 as starter with the 28th-ranked QBR (37.3). He was benched after 9 games for Tyrod Taylor and later placed on injured reserve. The take that Fields 'is done' as a viable NFL starter has largely proven correct through 2025.

The Bucks leaked the Giannis Antetokounmpo trade rumors to attract teams with better draft assets

I think the Bucks leaked this because they wanna move on from Giannis so they could rebuild. The Knicks don't have any first round picks. So they want a team that has first round picks to be like, oh, he is available for trade, let me come in. ... and there was also a report that his wife's moving to Greece, so he might go play in Greece.

Memes predicted the Bucks leaked the Giannis trade rumors to attract teams with better draft picks than the Knicks. At the 2026 deadline, the Warriors did aggressively pursue Giannis with draft picks and players, but ultimately the Bucks chose not to trade him. The leak-to-attract-offers theory may have had some merit since multiple teams reportedly engaged, but Giannis was not traded.

The Jets will not win a single game for the rest of the season

After last night's game, I don't think they're gonna win a game. I think they're gonna go... that team did not look like they could win a game.

The Jets finished 3-14, one of the worst records in the NFL. While they did win 3 games (not zero), they were essentially terrible for the rest of the season as Memes predicted.

The Mets are spineless pussies who couldn't get it done

The Mets are just a bunch of spineless pussies and they just couldn't get it done. Pete Alonso was out the door before the game ended. They're gonna get their teeth kicked in by the Dodgers.

Marcus Mariota might be the best quarterback on the Washington Commanders roster

I just said, I was just like, what if Marcus Mariota is the best quarterback on the Washington Commanders roster.

Marcus Mariota was not the best QB on the Commanders roster. Jayden Daniels was clearly the starter and threw for 1,262 yards with 8 TDs in 7 games before being shut down with injury. Mariota only started after Daniels' injury.

Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn should be fired if the defense gets embarrassed by a backup offensive line

I was saying if the defense gets embarrassed by an all backup offensive line... he should probably be [fired]. Must compete. I wanna see a competitive football team against a team that has 2% of their offense.

Aaron Glenn was not fired in 2025 and actually improved the defense as the season went on.

Jayden Daniels will finish as the worst quarterback of the 2024 draft class in the upcoming 2025 season

The Washington Commanders are gonna miss the playoffs. Jayden Daniels [will] finish dead last out of the 2024 QBs in that draft class.

Memes predicted the Commanders would miss the playoffs (correct — they went 5-12) and Jayden Daniels would finish dead last among 2024 QBs. Daniels only played 7 games due to injuries and had the lowest total stats of the class, but this was due to injury absences, not poor play quality. The Commanders missing the playoffs was correct; the Daniels ranking is technically true by volume stats but misleading.

For some reason, the series, [the Knicks] are just playing better without [Jalen Brunson]. This series. They have been playing better without him when he is off the court.
