The start of the 2024 season proves that coaching matters more than anything else in the NFL

The big picture for me before we get into all the games is Sam Darnold's three and oh, Geno Smith's three and oh... this start of the 2024 season has just been a red blinking light of coaching matters a lot.

Kevin O'Connell is one of the best coaches in the NFL

Minnesota might have one of the best coaches in the league. Yes. And I would also put McVay's performance this week right up there too.

The Vikings' defense is officially for real

The Vikings are just good. Brian Flores, that defense was everywhere... back to back week, you know, week one, obviously the Giants are kind of a mess... but the 49ers and the Texans are two teams that have Super Bowl aspirations... and Brian Flores basically put 'em in his back pocket.

Winter is officially over and next week will be golf weather

I think it's the official end of winter. Winter's done. Next week it's gonna be 60. Get the golf shoes out, get the shorts out. We made it another year of winter in Chicago.

Nebraska will finally get their first NCAA tournament win this year

I do think this is the year Nebraska gets their win. I think they have to. They're gonna be like minus 300 in the first round, minus 400. They gotta win.

This year's Final Four will determine if Tom Izzo is overrated

I think it just feels like it's Izzo. He's gonna go out in the Final Four. He's gonna get there. This is for whether or not he's overrated or not. I will admit that I was wrong... if they make it to this Final Four.
