The 49ers are so bad defensively they could end up with the #1 overall pick in the draft

If they don't do something in San Francisco, they could easily be picking the first pick in the draft because with that defense, they haven't stopped anybody in three weeks.

PredictionFootballHot
The 49ers finished 4-12 and earned the #2 overall pick (Nick Bosa). The Cardinals got the #1 pick.

Josh Allen is a better running quarterback than Cam Newton

Josh Allen, better running quarterback than Cam Newton.

Hot TakeFootballHotSubjective
While Josh Allen became one of the greatest running QBs ever, at the time of the take, Cam Newton was still the gold standard for power running at the position.

The Done Chain is officially on the Houston Texans

I am going to hang the Done Chain on the Houston Texans. Done. Done. I'm done with them.

PredictionFootballMedium
The 2018 Texans actually went on a 9-game winning streak after this and finished 11-5, winning the AFC South. This is a legendary 'cold take'.

Deshaun Watson will not have a great season due to his ACL recovery timeline

I didn't think that Deshaun Watson was going to have a great year this year because Adrian Peterson screwed it up for everybody by coming back from that ACL so quickly... It's going to be like a year and a half before he gets back to normal.

PredictionFootballMedium
Watson actually had a very strong 2018, throwing for over 4,000 yards and 26 TDs while making the Pro Bowl.

Josh Gordon will not have long-range success with the Patriots

I don't think [Josh Gordon] has long-range success written over it... because he's not passionate about football... If you're not willing to do the time and the effort into it, you're just going to get cast aside.

PredictionFootballHot
Gordon played 11 games for the Patriots in 2018 before stepping away for mental health reasons/suspension risk, and was eventually waived in 2019. It was not a long-term solution.

Dont'a Hightower can no longer play linebacker effectively

Hightower can't run like he used to run. And so he's really a defensive end. He can't play linebacker anymore.

OpinionFootballHot
While Hightower did age and slow down, he remained a starting linebacker for the Patriots' Super Bowl LIII winning team later that season.
