Teams down nine points should go for two early to gain strategic clarity

Harbaugh gave us a new little wrinkle to think about... if you're down nine, you go for two, because you're going to have to go for two anyways, to win. You're going to want to know exactly when you need to get that two points.

This is a common modern analytical takeaway that many coaches have started to adopt to manage late-game clock and possessions.

The Ravens are the most injured team of 2021

With Marlin Humphreys getting hurt last week and Lamar Jackson getting hurt this week, we don't know how long he's going to be out. You officially are the champions of most injured team of 2021. Like I said, you probably already had that crown, but this was like, this was the final piece of having Lamar Jackson getting hurt.

The 2021 Ravens are statistically cited as one of the most injury-impacted teams in NFL history according to Adjusted Games Lost metrics.

The AFC North title will be decided by a flexed Sunday Night Football game in Week 18

It feels like the AFC north will probably have that game [Sunday night football week 18] for the division, which will be fun. Like that will be fun. I think the, I think the Browns play the Bengals. Maybe it'd be that.

The Week 18 SNF game was actually Chargers vs. Raiders. The Bengals sat starters in Week 18 having already clinched.

The Browns are the most trustworthy team in the AFC North

I think it's the brown thing cause their defense... and because they can run the ball, they didn't run. They chose not to run the ball today, but they can, we know that they can run the ball they're built for December.

The Browns finished 3rd in the division and missed the playoffs, while the Bengals won the division and went to the Super Bowl.

Arm length doesn't matter for a tackle as long as the quarterback doesn't have tiny hands

Arm length doesn't always dictate everything. If you have a guy that's got short arms that's playing tackle, it's not the end of the world unless maybe you also have a quarterback with tiny hands, in which case it's like synergy factors. Right. Where if the guy with short arms can't block the guy and then the guy with tiny hands gets hit, more likely to fumble.

Whether specific arm length correlates to fumbles based on QB hand size is largely theoretical and difficult to prove or disprove.

You should never order appetizers at a steakhouse to maximize your sides

I'm of the mindset now that you don't need any appetizers at steakhouses. It's, it's a good place to run Zero apps... You don't need the calamari at a steakhouse... The sides at a steakhouse are elite. The mashed potatoes are always elite... mac and cheese always elite at a steakhouse, you wanna maximize your sides to go with a steak.

This is entirely a matter of personal dining preference.

Trent Williams is the rare offensive lineman who is actually fun to watch play

Trent Williams is a joy to have on your team. He's just a fucking bully. He's also the rare offensive lineman where you have fun watching him play. Like after the ball was snapped, my eyes would just go to Trent Williams because it's like this guy, we might throw an interception, but Trent Williams might punch a guy in the throat.

This is a subjective opinion about entertainment value.
