Conor McGregor is done being a consistent threat for the UFC belt

I asked the question, is he done in terms of like – is he done being a threat for the belt consistently? It feels like that. I don't know it well enough, but it feels like that just by the fact that he's fought like three times in the last four years and one of them was an old dude who he beat and he's lost twice.

Since this take, McGregor lost to Poirier again and has not won a fight or been a serious contender for a title (as of early 2024).

I would absolutely take Matthew Stafford to be the Bears' quarterback

What do you want for your birthday? Let's get you Matt Stafford. I would take that. Absolutely. We got the number one podcast. Let's get you Matt Stafford. We'll get Matt Stafford.

Stafford was traded to the Rams, not the Bears.

Matt LaFleur's decision to kick a field goal on 4th and goal was the most cowardly move ever

The most cowardice field goal of all time. Matt LaFleur, I do not understand what you're doing. The decision to kick a field goal with [2:10] left, three timeouts, down eight on the seven yard line, fourth and goal... so that you can seemingly go from needing a touchdown to needing a touchdown... was so beyond [stupid].

The Packers never got the ball back with a chance to win, effectively ending their season on a decision that minimized their win probability.

Kicking the field goal was the best path for the Packers to win the game

A touchdown on fourth down plus two-point conversion plus defensive stop for overtime was less likely to win than three points on fourth down and an onside kick or a defensive stop, two-minute warning, three timeouts, plus touchdown for a win. So kicking the field goal is the best path to win.

The decision was universally panned by analytics experts and fans alike; the Packers never got the ball back with a chance to win.

Josh Allen is playing quarterback on easy mode

We're a Josh Allen podcast. People sometimes get upset about how much we glaze him. I don't think we glaze him enough because he's playing quarterback on easy mode. It looks like that for him. The flick of the wrist, the runs, everything—it all looks like the game is slowed down for him. He's in just total control of the game.

Subjective assessment of Josh Allen's play and dominance.

The Bears will beat the Vikings, but they won't score 59 again

I think the Bears are gonna win. I do not think they're gonna score 59 points. I do think they're gonna win.

The Bears-Vikings result and Chicago's point total will determine this prediction.
