Firing Ron Rivera in early December is actually a favor to him

Brutal to do it. And I know is—I just want to get this out. It's kind of sad. I disagree. I think this is a great time to get fired. If you're a head coach, you still have maybe one or two weekends of golfing weather down in North Carolina. You get a head start on the job market. Ron Rivera is not going to stay unemployed for long.

Rivera was hired by the Washington Football Team (now Commanders) less than a month later on January 1, 2020.

Baby Yoda is the breakout star of The Mandalorian

Baby Yoda is the breakout star. It's basically the main character of the show, but he's electric. If you watch the show, he is so cute.

Baby Yoda (Grogu) became a massive cultural phenomenon and the face of the series.

Russell Wilson is in elite company with eight straight 3,000-yard winning seasons

Russell Wilson... has eight seasons, eight straight seasons of 3,000 yards on a winning team. Only two other guys to do that in the history of football. I think Peyton Manning and Tom [Brady].

Russell Wilson did indeed start his career with 8 straight winning seasons of 3,000+ yards, joining Manning and Brady as the only ones to do it.

No one actually underrates Russell Wilson except maybe 49ers fans

I think that no one really to this day underrates Russell Wilson with the possible exception of maybe... San Francisco 49ers fans. That's probably the only fan base that won't give Russell Wilson credit because with the exception of that one play in the Super Bowl, he's had an exceptional career.

Wilson was a consensus top-tier quarterback and MVP candidate in 2019.

The Bears could have a top-five offense even if they miss the playoffs

There's a world where the Bears don't make the playoffs, but they're a top-five offense. And our defense is so bad that I can almost—I would be very upset, but I could deal with it.

This resolves when the 2026 regular season ends and Chicago's offensive ranking and playoff status are known.

The Jaguars could win the AFC South

I think the Jaguars are not getting any respect or talked about a lot. I think they're gonna be really good this year. They could win the South. I think Trevor Lawrence is gonna keep going forward.

The Jaguars' season and Trevor Lawrence's 2026 performance will determine the prediction.
