The Steelers should start Justin Fields because Russell Wilson doesn't give them a chance to contend

Are you with Russ playing fine at 35 or 36 really going to contend against Cincinnati and Baltimore in the division? Really? No. Like, so my thing was if it really was a little bit of a competition... why not just say, you know what, the only real chance we have is if we strike Lightning at a bottle with Justin.

Wilson eventually started and performed well, leading the Steelers to the playoffs and the AFC North title, suggesting Orlovsky's 'no chance' claim was incorrect.

Notre Dame is already a lock for the College Football Playoff

Notre Dame won a game that was the biggest win of the weekend. Probably If you look at their schedule, they don't have a ton of tough tests after this. They're in the driver's seat... I'm fine with saying right now they're in the playoff.

Notre Dame finished the regular season 11-1 and secured a spot in the 12-team College Football Playoff.

Brian Kelly is not built for the SEC and does not belong in the conference

I'm gonna stand on that take. That's my official take on Brian Kelly. You could put this on a quote card. He ain't supposed to be SEC. No, he's [Jerry DiNardo]... hired him and it was like, dude, what are you doing here? You don't know our culture.

Kelly has continued to struggle in high-stakes SEC openers and big games, reinforcing the perception of a mismatch.

I am not spending 12 hours of my Saturday watching mediocre college football

I'm not locking in my entire 12 hours of a day on Saturday, the only day we're not in the office, to to watch a random ass week one game when there's only like three good ones... Your happiness comes from watching 12 hours of football and watching State Pittsburgh. Your happiness is from golfing. You should do what makes you happy.

This is a personal preference that cannot be objectively proven true or false.

The Rams are a top Super Bowl contender because their QB/WR connection is 'stupid'

Teams that I truly believe can win at number one Rams... there's no quarterback wide receiver group right now that sees it the same way consistently. The throws and the catches are stupid right now.

The Rams were top contenders (12-5, NFCCG) with Stafford winning MVP. But they lost in the NFCCG to Seattle.

Caleb Williams has absolutely stopped creating problems for himself

What do you have to see from Caleb to feel good going into 2026 and beyond? I would tell you number one, stop creating problems for yourself. He's absolutely done that now... He's more in structure, he's playing more in rhythm and timing.

Technical football opinion from an expert, can be evaluated against Williams' performance stats through the end of 2025.

Running the football in shotgun formation all the time stinks

I line up under center, every play is available to me... every direction is available to me. There's very little tendency or tell... when I'm in the shotgun, there's a smaller option of what I can do... When I'm under center, I turn my back to you in a play action fake. You cannot see the ball and the gun. You can all the time.

This is a tactical philosophy held by many NFL analysts and coaches.
