NFL coaches often fail because their organizations are poorly structured, not because they are bad at coaching

I've kind of changed my thought process on the Bears and the NFL in totality that like coaches can fail, but it's really the organization fails them. I'm now starting to realize like the Bears are screwed no matter what... there was never a structure that was put in place to have [Marc Trestman] succeed.

This is a subjective assessment of organizational health and its impact on coaching success.

Sean Payton will join Amazon for their NFL coverage

I'm like 90% sure I can predict what's going to happen in the next two years for Sean Payton, Amazon. Amazon... They might put them in a booth with Drew Brees.

Sean Payton joined FOX Sports as a studio analyst for the 2022 season, not Amazon.

Mike McCarthy will be fired as Cowboys head coach exactly one year from today

Mike McCarthy is the lamest of ducks right now because he knows that Sean, this is Sean Payton's job. I'm first reporting it right now. Mike McCarthy has been fired as head coach of the Dallas Cowboys exactly a year from today, minus two weeks.

Mike McCarthy was still the head coach of the Cowboys a year later and remained so through the 2024 season.

Adam Schefter will likely leave ESPN in the near future

Schefter... maybe Schefter thinking, you know, I'm going to be leaving ESPN soon. I can start giving a couple back here... Do you think Schefter lets Rappaport break the news that he leaves ESPN?

Adam Schefter signed a massive multi-year extension with ESPN in March 2022, just months after this prediction.

Miami of Ohio 100% deserves to be in the NCAA Tournament despite their first-round loss

I think a hundred percent they should be in. We need to just focus on the fact that there, I believe 31 and one and not do anything about strength of schedule. If you're able to go an entire season without losing a game that's hard to just wake up every day and not stumble once. I wanna see what happens when they play their first quad win one game in the middle of March.

This is part of the satirical 'Future' bit; Miami of Ohio was not 31-1 in 2026 (or 2024).

Conference tournaments are bad for top teams because they don't improve your seeding and lead to unnecessary fatigue

I'm kind of done with the conference tournaments. Like they just fuck you. It doesn't make your seed better and you end up being more tired today. If you have to play four games, you're just gonna get screwed.

The value of conference tournaments for high-seeded teams is a perennial debate in sports media.

Kyler Murray will be the next Sam Darnold now that he's with the Vikings

Kyler Murray is a Viking. We all kind of expected it. It happened. He's going to be the next Sam Darnold. The NFC North now has three number one picks at quarterback with Kyler Murray, Caleb Williams, Jared Goff. Kind of cool.

Kyler Murray did not sign with the Vikings; this is part of the episode bit.
