Brian Daboll will be hired as a head coach after this season

He's [Josh Allen] going to get Daboll hired, man. Brian Daboll is going to get it. That dude is a dude's dude, and I know that him and Josh are really tight, and he's absolutely going to get a really good job off this.

Daboll was a candidate but did not take a head coaching job until Jan 2022.

Philip Rivers will struggle against the Bills because he stinks in cold weather

Philip Rivers playing in temperature under 32 degrees, 1-5 all time. I'm really just going off of closing my eyes, thinking about a 29-degree day, thinking about Phil Rivers wearing 16 pairs of long johns and turtlenecks, and him trying to climb the pocket and pass the ball to the far hash, and it just not getting it.

The Colts lost 27-24 and Rivers retired shortly after. While he wasn't terrible, the prediction of a loss and struggle in Buffalo held true.

The Colts only win if Jonathan Taylor rushes for over 210 yards

If there's a way that the Colts win, it's by Jonathan Taylor running for 225 yards. But barring that, if he gets under 200 yards, then the Bills will win. Every single time Jonathan Taylor has rushed for over 210 yards in a game, the Colts win.

Taylor did not reach 200 yards and the Colts lost, satisfying the inverse of the take.

The Buffalo Bills are the most complete team in the NFL

The Bills, weeks 1 through 9, they were 24th in defense, and then weeks 10 through 17, they are 6th, and they are giving up 20 points a game. Flip the switch. They are the complete team.

The Bills finished 13-3 and made a deep run, validating the 'complete team' label.

I would draft a generational cornerback over a generational pass rusher

If I had an opportunity at, you know, like a generational pass rusher with nobody behind them or a generational corner with decent rushers up front. I'm taking the generational corner... you cannot manufacture coverage. You can manufacture pass rush.

Positional value is a core debate in NFL scouting and cannot be definitively proven either way.

Caleb Williams is the most talented quarterback in the NFC North

I, I don't think it's unreasonable to say [Caleb Williams] is the most talented quarterback in the division... he's got a different kind of talent like the extension of plays, the throwing off tar off platform. Like that's big in today's NFL.

The relative talent of QBs in a division is a matter of long-term subjective debate.

The path for the Texans to stay close is containing Patrick Mahomes' scrambles

The path is if they can take care of the Mahomes scrambles, which they didn't in that first game that killed 'em. They can keep it closer.

If Houston stayed close by limiting scrambles, this is correct. However, the Chiefs won 24-17 in reality.
