Alabama is invincible this year unless Tua Tagovailoa gets seriously injured

I feel like really the only way I see Alabama losing a game this year is if Tua gets hurt seriously and has to miss time. Unless Tua gets hurt and Jalen [Hurts] is hurt, I think Alabama's pretty invincible.

Alabama lost to Clemson in the National Championship game. While Tua Tagovailoa was dealing with minor injuries throughout the season, he played in the loss.

The Eagles are playing like a pile of shit

They [the Eagles] are playing like a pile of shit. Offensively, they look boring. I don't know what it is that's so different from last year.

The 2018 Eagles struggled significantly compared to their Super Bowl season, finishing 9-7 and barely making the playoffs as a Wild Card.

The NFC East is the Redskins' division to lose

I think it's time to say this is the Redskins' division. I thought the Eagles would win tonight and it would be a race, but the Eagles having that showing, they have to now basically run the table.

The Redskins finished 7-9 and missed the playoffs after Alex Smith's season-ending injury in Week 11. The Cowboys won the NFC East.

Baker Mayfield is officially a franchise quarterback

Baker Mayfield saying, 'I woke up this morning feeling dangerous.' That's a franchise quarterback.

While Mayfield had a rocky tenure in Cleveland, he eventually led them to a playoff win and proved to be a legitimate NFL starter, later revitalizing his career in Tampa.

Curt Cignetti would leave Indiana for the Penn State head coaching job

I think Penn State is one of the jobs [Curt Cignetti] would definitely leave Indiana for. I think there are a lot of jobs that have come open or or likely to come open that he's been mentioned for that I don't really see as upgrades over Indiana. ... I feel like if you're gonna replace James Franklin, you'd need to find your own Dan Lanning kind of hire.

This depends on Penn State firing James Franklin and offering the job to Cignetti, and Cignetti accepting. James Franklin remained at Penn State through the 2025 cycle.

Texas A&M is the most surprising SEC team that could run the table the rest of the season

I would say Texas A&M. I do think that they're legitimately good. ... They've kind of figured things out and gotten their act together the last few weeks. ... I'm not saying that they will, I'm just saying they strike me as a team that is much better than anybody truly expected.

Texas A&M did not run the table, losing key late-season matchups.

Arch Manning looks like an unpolished freshman and is not ready for the SEC

I thought like the last few years sitting on the bench developing behind Quinn Ewers is like we were gonna see a much more polished player than what we have seen to this point. He just looks like a freshman even though he is now in his third year on campus. So I think that is very alarming.

Subjective evaluation of talent, but Manning's subsequent performances were inconsistent.
