I proved I am durable enough to be an NFL starting quarterback

The big thing for me this past year was the big question mark was, is he durable enough to get through a whole season? And I think I checked that box off this year, and that was huge for me.

Heinicke played 16 games in the 2021 season, largely proving he could handle the workload of a starter for a full season.

You can safely drive 70-80 MPH on icy highways as long as the road is straight

Thankfully, a lot of the highways going out into the south are straight... once we hit Ohio, which was mostly straight highway, you can still carry 70 to 80 miles per hour safely. Whereas going around the corners, we had to go like 50 miles. So with this ice, the big thing will be stopping. Not many two people are on the roads, so no one's going to stop short in front of us. So as long as we just cruise, we're going to make awesome time.

Driving 80 MPH on ice is extremely dangerous regardless of how straight the road is, as any loss of traction or need to brake would result in a total loss of control.

The NFL will force Stephen Ross to sell the Dolphins because match-fixing is the only thing owners will actually vote a peer out for

I think that they're going to force him [Stephen Ross] to sell the team. I think this is the only way that an owner could be forced to sell. Because owners have so many skeletons in their closet that they're never going to vote another guy out... But when you start involving like changing the outcomes of games and bribing coaches... I feel like this is a great excuse for owners to try to sell the team or try to vote them out.

Ross was suspended and fined $1.5 million following an investigation into tampering and tanking allegations, but he was not forced to sell the team.

The Washington Commanders name won't matter once the season starts

The team name, I think I said it on Wednesday's show, but, like, people get mad about it for 24 hours. No one, like, will remember it, care. Then football will be back, and we'll be like, who cares? It's not going to be – I don't think it makes or breaks anything.

The name remains controversial and unpopular with the fan base years later, and there are ongoing discussions about changing it again under new ownership.
