Brandon Staley's decision to go for it on 4th and 1 from his own 18-yard line was absolutely insane

Brandon Staley living and dying by going forward on fourth down... the Raiders were up three and Brandon Staley went forward on fourth and one on his own 20... It was 17-14. They went for it on fourth and one at their own 18 with 8:57 left in the third quarter. That's how crazy he is guys. Fucking crazy.

The decision was widely criticized as the Raiders scored shortly after, and the Chargers ultimately lost the game and missed the playoffs.

The Raiders were smart to win rather than tie because they have a better chance against the Bengals than the Chiefs

On just a level for the Raiders, it was smart to go for the win. Once they're in that spot at the end of the game... if you let the Chargers in, you have to go play the Chiefs, right? Where now you get to go play the Bengals. I mean, the Bengals are better than the Raiders, but they have a lot better of a chance against the Bengals than they have against the Chiefs who has had their number and kick their ass this year.

The Raiders did play the Bengals and lost 26-19 in a close game, while the Chiefs blew out the Steelers 42-21 in the same round, supporting the idea that the Bengals were a more manageable opponent.

This was the best Week 18 in the history of the NFL

I'm just going to say that was the best Week 18 in the history of the NFL. It came right down to the last game of the last week. Congratulations, Roger Goodell. You've done it again.

This was only the first year of the 17-game schedule (Week 18), so technically it was the best by default, though it was genuinely highly dramatic.

The Patriots are ready to face the Bills and should face them head-on

I've never been more ready for anything in my life... why wait? You know, the bills are the better team they're favored all that shit. They're at home, but this is what you want. Why run? Why not just face it head on.

The Patriots were absolutely demolished by the Bills 47-17 in the Wild Card round, making this confidence look misplaced.

Betting the over on Alabama basketball is a cheat code

Alabama by the way is a cheat code if you want to get in on it. It's just betting their overs. They just never stopped missing. This has been like, oh, two weeks now they're over under for the first half was 45 and a half points last night. They scored 69 in the first half.

The 'cheat code' status of a team's over is based on a specific run of games; eventually, Vegas adjusts the lines.

Tua Tagovailoa's market value is non-existent relative to his contract

Everything's on the table for the Dolphins. Tua could be a fullback. What would you... What do you think the Dolphins would say yes to for a trade for Tua? Like a sixth round pick for Tua? A jugs machine? I don't know what the hell would Tua's market be?

The Dolphins' internal view on 'everything being on the table' is a subjective claim about team strategy.
