I am officially buying back in on the Rams as a potential playoff team

Rams-Seahawks, Rams was my pick on Friday. I said I was gonna buy back in on the Rams even though I said they sucked a couple weeks ago. Matt Stafford gamer, throwing dimes in the second half... now the Rams, I don't think, like we go back to someone's gotta get that seven seed in the NFC... the Rams, if they put together a couple wins, I think they have the Cardinals next. They could maybe flirt with it.

The Rams went on a hot streak to finish 10-7 and secured the 6th seed in the NFC playoffs.

The Cleveland Browns are for real

The Cleveland Browns are seven and three. The Cleveland Browns win with a, their third string quarterback in DTR. The Cleveland Browns are for real.

The Browns finished 11-6 and made the playoffs with a top-tier defense, proving they were indeed 'for real'.

If Joe Flacco wins a Super Bowl with the Browns, he's won two and he's definitively elite — I put a thousand dollars on it at 50-to-1

It would be so awesome if Joe Flacco won a Super Bowl with these Browns. As of Friday I put a thousand dollars future on the Browns thinking that they were gonna get Joe Flacco. So it pays out 50 to 1. If Joe Flacco wins a Super Bowl and he does his normal Joe Flacco thing where he doesn't make any mistakes, gets the pass interferences — that would contribute so much to the Flacco discourse. At that point he's won two Super Bowls. He's elite.

Flacco did not win the Super Bowl with the Browns. They made the playoffs but lost in the Wild Card round to the Texans 45-14.

I love the DJ Moore trade for the Bears because it clears cap space for Max Crosby or Tyler Linderbaum

I love this trade because you clear up money. [DJ Moore's] got a big pretty hefty contract so you clear up money to maybe go get a Max Crosby or a Linderbaum. You get a pick and you make the bet that Luther Burden and Rome Odunze are gonna be taking leaps forward.

The trade is real in this transcript's timeline. The outcome of the cap space usage depends on free agency results.

DJ Moore would not have had a 1,000-yard season if he stayed in the Bears' offense

He could have a thousand yards [with the Bills] and be like, wow. How, how could you trade him? He wouldn't have had a thousand yards in this Bear's offense.

Moore finished the 2023 season with 1,364 yards for the Bears, so this retrospective hypothetical is likely incorrect as he had already proven he could do it.

Malik Willis is the #1 free agent backup quarterback

Top quarterback free agents... Is it also Malik Willis? Malik Willis is, yes. So he's number one. Malik Willis one.

Willis was traded to the Packers in 2024 and performed well as a backup, but ranking him #1 over established vets is a subjective value judgment.
