The NFL is rigged against the Cincinnati Bengals

If you wanna point fingers at the NFL being rigged against Cincinnati, this is probably their most legitimate complaint... they were kind of forced to play their starters last week to a certain extent so that they could guarantee themselves a home playoff game. The fact that they played their starters, they got some of them hurt last week, that's kind of fucked up.

The Bengals were indeed vocal about the unfairness of the coin-flip rule and did lose starters like Alex Cappa to injury in the final week.

If the Dallas Cowboys win the Super Bowl, I will get a cat

I am here right now on Friday the 13th, ready to declare that if the Dallas Cowboys win the Super Bowl, I will get a cat.

The Cowboys lost in the Divisional Round to the 49ers, so Big Cat did not have to get a cat.

Tony Romo has become annoying and fans will officially turn against him during these playoffs

Tony Romo has gotten so much more annoying and his noises and his stepping on Jim Nance. I actually think Jim Nance doesn't really like him anymore. And I think it's gonna prove true in these playoffs. I guarantee you that people are gonna start shifting to our side in these 2022-2023 playoffs.

Public sentiment did significantly shift against Romo's broadcasting style during the 2023 playoffs and the 2023-24 season.

The Bills will blow out the Dolphins because Miami cannot score more than 13 points with Skylar Thompson

I would take the Bills even if they were like minus 17 at this point. Skylar Thompson is playing... I don't know how they score more than, let's say 13 points. It's gonna be an ass kicking. It's gonna be a whomping. The Dolphins with Tua scored 25 and a half points a game; without, they've scored 16.3. The Bills get to 30, we cover the spread.

The Bills won 34-31. While they scored over 30 as predicted, they did not cover the 13-point spread as the Dolphins scored way more than 13.

The Ravens are using a physical loophole to back out of the Maxx Crosby trade

I'm calling bullshit on all this. It does feel like something's fishy here. And maybe it's just the Ravens using the loophole of, hey, we can see, we can trade for Maxx Crosby, see how the rest of free agency plays out, knowing that this stupid legal tampering and then official free agency, there's a two day gap and then just figure it out later.

The trade was literally rescinded, but the 'nefarious loophole' theory is a subjective interpretation of front office tactics.

The NFL needs a 'no-backsies' rule for players who post elaborate social media goodbye videos

If you post a 13 minute goodbye video on social media like Maxx Crosby did, that should just be trade final. You can't come back on that... I actually am rooting for Maxx Crosby to be on the Raiders now because that will be so awkward and funny.

This is a humorous rule proposal, not a verifiable prediction.

The Panthers were right to overpay for Jaelan Phillips

The Panthers getting Jaelan Phillips, even though it was a lot of money, I feel like you gotta do it. Cap went up and I feel like you have to do those type of moves, especially when you are a playoff team from last year. Your defense was a problem... I'd be like, oh, Howie's interested? I'll give him more money.

The success of the Panthers' defense with Phillips will determine if the overpay was justified.
