Jared Goff is currently a better quarterback than Blake Bortles

[I'm taking] Jared Goff [over Blake Bortles]. I mean, because the Jags only threw one pass in the second half last week... so I feel like if your team... it's a game manager.

The Rams beat the Jaguars 27-17 in Week 6. Goff had a higher passer rating and threw zero interceptions compared to Bortles' one.

DC sports are officially cursed

As a fan of the Nationals and the Capitals, I'm beginning to think maybe somebody from DC Sports went back in time and stepped in a Kardashian or something... It's cursed. At this point we can say maybe Mark Rypien got, what's her name, the matriarch of the Kardashian family, got her pregnant and then had an abortion or something.

Incorrect. Both the Capitals (2018) and the Nationals (2019) won championships shortly after this episode.

The replay rule for runners coming off the bag is the worst rule in baseball

It worked in the Cubs' favor, but I think it's the worst rule in baseball when a guy comes off of a bag and they hold a slide for like a second longer and he's off by a centimeter and they watch a million replays like, yeah, you know what? He was out.

This is a subjective opinion about the quality of a sports rule.

The MLB playoffs are rigged for big markets

The final four cities represented in baseball, New York, L.A., Chicago, Houston. Those are the four biggest cities in America. The four biggest markets... Bud Selig at it again.

Hot TakeBaseballHotSarcastic
While those were the four largest markets, there is no evidence the league rigged the outcome.

Trevor Lawrence will win NFL MVP and the Jaguars have the league's best skill positions

I'm gonna put a lot of money on [Trevor Lawrence] winning the MVP. 'cause the odds have gotta be insane. And he's so good. And now having Calvin Ridley... I don't know if you've seen the clips from their camp. Calvin Ridley's a freak. The Jags might have across the board the best skill positions.

Lamar Jackson won the 2023 MVP. Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars struggled down the stretch, missing the playoffs entirely, and Lawrence was not in the MVP conversation.

Trevor Lawrence sucks at throwing the deep ball

I don't think [Trevor Lawrence] sucks, but he definitely sucks throwing the deep ball, which makes him suck. And they don't really have anybody to catch it either... some of the throws that he's made when people are wide open... he just can't make 'em.

Lawrence's deep-ball accuracy remained a statistical point of contention throughout 2022, though he improved significantly in the second half of the season.

I will get both my big toenails removed if Trevor Lawrence doesn't reach an AFC Championship on his rookie contract

I'm so confident that Trevor Lawrence isn't a bust. If they don't make the AFC Championship on his rookie contract, I will get... five years... I will come up wherever we're recording. I will go [get] both of my big toenails removed.

Trevor Lawrence's rookie contract (including the 5th year option) runs through the 2025 season. As of now, he has not reached an AFC Championship game.
