Patrick Mahomes might end up passing Tom Brady as the greatest of all time in every category

He might end up passing Brady as the greatest of all time in terms of Super Bowls, MVPs, numbers, the whole deal. I mean that's, he's special and he carries that team every single week.

Mahomes won his 3rd Super Bowl later that season, but remains 4 rings and several MVPs/records behind Brady.

The Cowboys should extend both Dak Prescott and Mike McCarthy

I still think with the, you know, benefit of hindsight, another day to think about it. You gotta extend both Dak Prescott and Mike McCarthy. Yeah, I think listen, you won 13 games, right? ... sometimes stability is your best stability.

Hot TakeFootballHotSarcastic
The Cowboys did retain Mike McCarthy for the 2024 season, though Dak Prescott's long-term extension remained a point of contention until just before the next season.

The Bills defense will have a hard time stopping Patrick Mahomes with their current injuries

I am very nervous for the Bills defense going up against Patrick Mahomes in the Playoffs. It feels like they're gonna have to patchwork something together here. And maybe, maybe they just have to just do like their offense just has to go nuclear. ... they've lost everything [on defense].

The Chiefs beat the Bills 27-24 in the divisional round; the Bills defense struggled to stop the Chiefs on critical drives.

Mike Vrabel is the perfect culture fit to be the next head coach of the Steelers

I think Vrabel obviously, he's the culture fit there. Be perfect, be perfect fit for Pittsburgh.

While Mike Tomlin stayed with the Steelers, Vrabel was not hired, and the take is a subjective evaluation of fit.

The Bears are still a year away from being real contenders

I'm a little more realistic because I look at the schedule and see, you know, that they really have what—they played one team with a winning record and lost to 'em. I'm a little apprehensive... I just don't think this is their year. I think they're a year away.

The Bears went 11-6, won the NFC North, and won a playoff game. They were NOT a year away - they were contenders this year.

Sam Darnold will eventually revert to his old, mistake-prone self because 'you are what you are'

Usually this league you are what you are. You're gonna have moments where you're up here... and moments when you're down here... eventually you're in the middle and that's who you are... [Sam Darnold] looked frazzled [last week] and that can't happen. It just can't happen in the big games... there's a Sam Darnold problem at least in my mind.

The take is a subjective long-term outlook on a player's career trajectory.

The 7-4 Chargers will miss the playoffs

They're not making the playoffs... and it's gonna come down to that Chiefs Chargers game and I think the Chiefs will beat 'em. They're seven and four, but if you look at their schedule, it's brutal. And that offensive line is horrible. Yanked [Penning] out of the game. It's a terrible offensive line.

Pete Prisco predicted the 7-4 Chargers would miss the playoffs. The Chargers finished 11-6 and made the playoffs as a Wild Card team, losing to the Patriots 16-3 in the first round.
