The Titans defense will be well-rested and keep the Jaguars game under 40 points

The under in the Jaguars Titans is my game under 40. I don't, I don't see how they're gonna score. I think this is, you know what, we've all been waiting for the Vrabel game. I think this is the Vrabel game... their defense is gonna be as well rested as been in a long time. This is the Vrabel game.

The Jaguars won 20-16, for a total of 36 points, so the under hit.

The NFL should expand to eight playoff seeds in both conferences to make the field fair for everyone

There's another possible outcome that we can have here. This is the one that I think that they should do. This seems to be the most fair one. They are considering giving eight seeds in the AFC as well as the NFC. Ooh. Because the nurse back, that would be more fair if you can't just have, you know, the the number one seed in the NFC, get a leg up and get that buy week if the AFC doesn't get it. Right. So I think that that's the fairest way to go about it.

The NFL did not expand the playoffs; they settled the AFC issues with neutral site contingencies.

The AFC Championship Game should be played at a neutral site in Detroit

Let's be honest, the answer is Detroit. Because it's always Detroit for these games. And then we'd also have the joke of like, this team has won more games in Detroit—playoff games in Detroit—than Detroit in the last 30 years. You just gotta always fall back to what is the trivia answer that would hurt Detroit the most.

While Detroit was considered, the NFL eventually settled on Atlanta (Mercedes-Benz Stadium) as the potential neutral site for the 2022-23 AFC Championship game.

Lovie Smith will purposely tank the Week 18 game against the Colts to secure the #1 overall pick

Lovie Smith, there's precedent for him tanking at the end of a season. If you remember in 2014, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers... basically tanked in real life. He tanked right as we were watching it. He tanked that game. I think he will do the same in this game. Even if they get a lead, he will make sure that they find a way to lose.

Lovie Smith famously did the opposite: the Texans won on a last-second TD and 2-point conversion, giving the #1 pick to the Bears.

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.
