I was '99 percent correct' about predicting a top-two pick Heisman winner making the Super Bowl

If I said in June of 2028 and asteroid is gonna hit Peru... And then in June of 2028 and asteroid hit Uruguay. Am I more right or than the people who said it would never happen? If in August I say for the first time in NFL history, a rookie's going to be playing to go to the Super Bowl and make the Super Bowl and that rookie is gonna be a Heisman Trophy winner. And that rookie's gonna be a top two pick. And that rookie's going to have a connection to Cliff Kingsbury. And then this all happens [with Jayden Daniels] and everyone's like, oh, you're an idiot. You said Caleb Williams was gonna make the Super Bowl. And I'm like, I basically called it.

He predicted Caleb Williams would do it; Jayden Daniels (another top 2 pick/Heisman winner coached by Kliff Kingsbury) actually led his team to the NFC Championship. He was literally wrong but remarkably close on the archetype.

The 2020 Lakers championship in the Orlando Bubble counts the most and was the hardest to win

If anything 2020 counts the most. Listen, you take out all the distractions and you just boil that game down to who's truly the best. Everyone plays on the same court... No traveling for the guy who's in his late thirties... it was just a testament.

This is a subjective debate about the value of a championship.

Kellen Moore has a good chance to be hired as the Saints head coach

I think it might be Kellen Moore. Yeah. I think he's been doing a lot of, he's been getting his staff together. He's been really focused on his interviews with the Saints. I think this bodes well for his chance of being hired.

Kellen Moore was eventually hired as the head coach of the New Orleans Saints in February 2025.

10-minute quarters in the NBA would be bad for bench players and league parity

I think it would be bad for bench players. There would be less parity in the league and there would just be, you know, all the stars could play more minutes.

This is a subjective opinion on the impact of a potential rule change that has not been implemented.

The Chiefs will beat the Eagles 34-24 in Super Bowl 59

I am leaning towards 34 24. Okay. Leaning. Okay... but that's, you know, write that in pencil. No, not in pen.

The Chiefs lost to the Eagles 22-40 in Super Bowl LIX. Nick Wright predicted Chiefs 34-24; instead the Eagles won convincingly.

Josh Allen will eventually win a Super Bowl

I think [Josh Allen] will win a Super Bowl eventually, but we're, we're, the, somebody is gonna be left without a chair... I would worry about for Josh is if, because I think he'll beat the Chiefs in the playoffs one time. He's too good.

Josh Allen has not won a Super Bowl yet.

Lamar Jackson is the 'Aaron Judge' of the NFL

Lamar, everybody gets so mad at me Lamar's Aaron Judge... which is on a day in, day out basis in the regular season, you're like, is this the best player in the sport or certainly in the very, you know, top two or three and then come the playoffs. It's like, man, every time... every regular season it's Lamar's the best player in the league. And every Playoffs it's like, you know why they lost, they put the ball in Lamar's hands too much.

Lamar Jackson has a high regular season win percentage and multiple MVPs, but a poor postseason record (2-5 as of this episode).
