Miami would win the National Championship if they simply ran the ball every single play

I think that Miami could win this game if they ran the ball every single play. Their offensive line was dominant. And even when a guy would get wrapped up for a two yard gain, then you get the five huge big giant dogs on their offensive line pushing them downhill like an avalanche. You end up with a five, six yard gain on it.

While Miami did win the semi-final, they have not played the championship game yet. The effectiveness of running every play is subjective.

At least one NFL team that loses this weekend will fire their head coach specifically to pursue John Harbaugh

I think that there's gonna be a team that loses in the playoffs that's gonna fire the coach too... thinking, oh, we're definitely gonna get [John] Harbaugh. Maybe two. And then one of those teams won't get Harbaugh.

This depends on post-wild card firings and reported interest in Harbaugh. Harbaugh eventually took the Chargers job in this timeline.

Mike McDaniel will likely become the Commanders' offensive coordinator because of his relationship with Dan Quinn

The reason why I think [McDaniel] might, he might be a commander. Offensive coordinators. He loves Dan Quinn. ... Dan was like his number one advocate when it came to getting him sober and supporting [him]. ... He's probably odds on favor that it's gonna be the commanders.

McDaniel's next career move will determine the correctness.

The Chargers' defense will shut down Drake May and surprise the Patriots in the wild card round.

I think the defense is gonna shut Drake May down. I think we're gonna surprise some people this weekend. That's f***ing bolt up.

The Chargers lost 16-3; while the defense performed well, they did not 'surprise' with a win.

The Patriots' defensive line is not as legit as the Texans' or Broncos' units

The Patriots aren't like the Texans in terms of a defensive line. No, that's what I'm saying. That's why I was like, 'cause every other team, the Texans, the Broncos, like those defenses are really legit.

Comparison of defensive line quality across teams is a matter of football analysis and opinion.

Justin Herbert needs to finally win a playoff game to shut up the doubters

I just need Herbert to win a playoff game because every year it's the same fucking shit where it's everyone's hating on Herbert. We need the Chargers to win this shit. I just get my hopes up every year. Fucking 27-nothing lead we fucking blow it.
