Teams that start the season 3-1 make the playoffs 70% of the time

Teams that start the season 3-1 make it [to the playoffs] 70% of the time. Right. Teams that start at 2-0-1, I guarantee you will not make the playoffs this year. We can probably take that to the bank. Poor Detroit.

Historical data supports the 3-1 trend, and the 2019 Lions did indeed miss the playoffs, finishing 3-12-1.

Today is Friday, September 27th, and the Green Bay Packers are dead.

Hot TakeFootballHotSarcastic
The Packers were far from dead; they finished the 2019 season 13-3 and reached the NFC Championship Game.

Aaron Rodgers gets 'too cool' in the red zone

As Skip Bayless said, Aaron Rodgers gets too cool in the red zone.

This is a subjective stylistic critique of Rodgers' red zone efficiency.

I would rather have an aggressive coach like Doug Pederson than a wishy-washy one like Freddie Kitchens

I'd rather live with a coach who's aggressive and tries to steal the moment than a guy who goes wishy-washy, Freddie Kitchens. Do we call it the Freddie Kitchens or the Matt LaFleur when you just passed from inside the five-yard line?

This is a subjective evaluation of coaching styles, though Kitchens was fired after one season while Pederson had already won a Super Bowl.

If Duke loses this year, they will be a dynasty of chokers

If they lose this year, that would without question be the best two year... they'd be a dynasty of chokers. Like back to back all time choking losses in the NCAA tournament. I hope that doesn't happen, PFT. We would've never seen anything close to this before.

This is a conditional opinion based on a future outcome.

I'm picking Purdue or Nebraska to win the national title

I think that Purdue, no one's talking about Purdue. They've been hovering around the top. Every time they, they, they start to be discussed in the media. It feels like they lose their next game. I'm gonna say Purdue, my money's on Purdue or Nebraska this year.

The 2026 NCAA tournament hasn't happened yet.

I believe Michigan State's Tom Izzo will return to the Final Four in his final year

I got it feels like the visualization pick of Izzo in his last year. Going back to a Final Four. Feel like that's gonna happen.

Michigan State did not reach the Final Four in 2026.
