NFL kickers are now expected to be 100% accurate inside 40 yards

I mean, I make 50, 40 yards and in. You make a hundred percent. You have to in the NFL, you cannot miss inside 40 yards ever.

While the expectation is high, kickers still miss inside 40 yards occasionally due to weather, blocks, or human error, though league-wide accuracy is at historic highs.

Jacoby Brissett might actually be a legitimate starting quarterback

I think Jacoby Brissett might be a guy. I just think Jacoby Brissett deserves credit because he's playing great football and he's been put in a situation that's probably not ideal knowing that like you're playing for your own job for your own future, but you also know that this isn't your team.

Brissett played exceptionally well for the Browns in 2022, finishing with the 13th highest QBR in the league despite the team's record, proving he was a legitimate starter.

Replacing Mitchell Trubisky with Kenny Pickett won't solve the Steelers' problems

I don't think that the problems that they have to solve can be solved by going to Kenny Pickett. In fact, I think it would just kind of screw with Kenny Pickett a little bit because the team, they put him in an obviously flawed team.

While Pickett eventually took over, the Steelers' offense remained one of the worst in the league for the next two years, supporting the take that the issues were systemic.

A Browns Super Bowl win with Deshaun Watson would be the most hated of all time

What if the Browns go to the Super Bowl and Deshaun Watson is the quarterback... America hates this shit out of them. It should be their moment, their crowning moment of like this team has never won a Super Bowl... and you win the most hateable Super Bowl of all time.

Subjective opinion on public perception, which was indeed very negative toward the Watson trade.

Justin Tucker will be the greatest kicker ever if he continues his current path

If [Tucker] continues on this path, he'll be the greatest ever. I hate to say that cause I was pretty good, but... I think Justin Tucker is kicking around 90 like for his career. 92%? That's an insane number.

Tucker is widely considered the most accurate kicker in NFL history, though 'greatest' remains a subjective career-long debate.

The NFL will eventually see a 70-yard field goal in a game

We're gonna see a 70 yard field goal. I think I feel like I set that two or three years ago... The 60 yard is like the new 50 and the 70 yards gonna be like the new 60.

Jaguars kicker Cam Little hit a 70-yard field goal in a preseason game (Aug 2025) and a 68-yard field goal in the regular season (Nov 2025, longest in NFL regular season history). However, the 70-yarder was in preseason and doesn't count in official NFL records, so technically a 70-yard field goal in an official game has not yet occurred.

Kickers are struggling because NFL stadiums are too quiet without fans

No adversity. There's no dynamic. There's no, you know, you need a dynamic environment to excel... You should feel alive and not like you're a mouse in a laboratory.

Subjective sports psychology claim.
