Dwayne Haskins was benched because he wasn't responding to coaching, not just performance

The bigger issue for Dwayne Haskins is simply was he responding to the coaching... it's about doing what the coaches are asking you to do and having some accountability... I'm hearing Dwayne Haskins was not able to respond to the coaching... at some point they're like, I don't know if this guy's ever going to 'get it'.

Haskins was eventually released by Washington later that season following continued performance and off-field maturity issues, supporting the claim that it was a coaching/culture mismatch.

I like Nick Foles and think the Bears will have a great effort against the Buccaneers

I like Nick Foles in this. There's not a lot to like, it's Tom Brady and Nick Foles. I've seen this movie before... I feel like the Bears are going to have a great effort tonight.

The Bears beat the Buccaneers 20-19 on October 8, 2020.

Something weird will happen with the kickers in the Bears vs. Buccaneers game

Something weird is going to happen tonight. It's gonna be weird kicker night... I'm thinking Cairo Santos might do something good. I'm thinking... suck up [Ryan Succop] is going to do something weird. Whether it's missing three field goals, maybe missing an extra point.

Cairo Santos hit a game-winning 38-yard field goal with 1:13 left. Ryan Succop made all 4 of his field goals, but the prediction of kicker importance was correct.

Tom Brady will make a mental blunder that costs the Buccaneers the game

It's going to come down to whether Brady's been aging, whether we see Brady's age physically and kind of mentally... maybe he gets slower as you age... so to recap Billy, you think the Tom Brady is going to make a mental blunder that's going to cost them the game.

Tom Brady famously lost track of the downs on the final drive against the Bears, holding up four fingers thinking it was still third down after the play ended.

The Packers' defense is 'fraudulent'

I like the Packers defense, but I do think that it is a little bit fraudulent, could get exposed by the right offense. And I just don't know if this is the right team to do it. I think this easily could be a Rams cover defense.

The Packers defense played well against the Rams but was exposed the following week in the NFC Championship loss to the Buccaneers.

Josh Allen struggles significantly when he is pressured

Josh Allen has faced eight top 10 blitz heavy teams... and he's done well against the blitz. But there's a difference between a blitz and pressure... And Josh Allen has massively bad splits when he is being pressured.

Statistically, this was true for Allen in early 2021, and the Ravens pressure did limit the Bills to 17 points.

Mark Andrews will have a big game against the Bills

I think Mark Andrews is the key guy that you want to be looking at to have a big game for Baltimore. I think regardless of what Buffalo ends up doing, they stink covering tight ends. So I think Mark Andrews is going to have a big game here.

Andrews had only 4 catches for 28 yards in the game, a very quiet performance.
