Bill Belichick is actually doing his best coaching job this year

Bill Belichick is actually doing his best coaching job this year... He's not totally wrong when he says [they have no money]. The Patriots are paying Brady, they're paying Antonio Brown still, they're in dead cap space.

The Patriots finished 7-9, their first losing season since 2000. While impressive given the roster, 'best coaching job' is a massive stretch considering his six Super Bowls.

The Buccaneers are still top-tier contenders because they can win with their C-game

I'm not going to like ding [the Bucs] for that because... you didn't get a A+ effort from the box and they still won with their C game, which actually is a better sign for... it's like very good. It was a trap game.

The Bucs went on to win the Super Bowl this season, proving Big Cat's 'contender' label correct.

The Saints' cap situation proves Drew Brees has already told the team he will retire

The Saints are like $92 million over the cap next year... How is that even real? Drew Brees has already told them that he will retire. That's the only way they can do that.

Drew Brees did officially retire following the 2020 season, making this correct.

The Saints could destroy the NFL's monopoly by suing over salary cap interference

If the Saints sue the NFL being like, 'Hey, you're interfering with the free market. We should be able to pay people whatever we want.' Then that case goes to like the Supreme Court. NFL loses its monopoly. The Saints could blow up the NFL if they want.

The Saints did not sue the NFL over the cap, nor did it reach the Supreme Court.

Victor Wembanyama is already better than LeBron James

I'm gonna enjoy him because he's, he's like, I I said on Wednesday's show, he is, he's already better than LeBron. So I, that's how I'm gonna enjoy him.

Comparing players across eras or at different career stages is inherently subjective.

People only hate on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's flopping because his play style is fundamentally boring

I actually think the problem with SGA more than anything is he's just boring. That's really what people are upset about. The flopping like sucks. But... more than anything he's just, he's boring because he is a lethal mid-range guy. He doesn't have flashy dunks. He's not doing... He's just methodically an exceptional basketball player.

Subjective analysis of fan sentiment regarding a player's style.
