I don't think the Texans can win three playoff games to reach the Super Bowl

I don't think [the Texans] can win three playoff games, but I do think they can win two playoff games to then get to the Super Bowl. And then if they're in the Super Bowl, it's like... I don't even know what we do.

The Texans won the AFC South but lost in the Wild Card round to the Colts (1-1 in playoffs), so they did not win two or three games.

No NFL team has ever gone 0-3 then 8-0 and failed to win the Super Bowl

Has any team ever gone 0-3 and then 8-0 and then not won the Super Bowl? It's never happened. It's never happened before.

The 2018 Texans did exactly this (0-3 then 9-0) and lost in the Wild Card round to the Colts. They did not win the Super Bowl.

Cody Kessler is trash

I think Cody Kessler stinks. I think he's trash. He's absolutely trash.

Kessler's NFL career as a starter was very short-lived and unsuccessful; he was 2-10 as a starter overall.

Cody Kessler was brought in to make Blake Bortles nervous, not to make the team better

I don't think [Kessler] was there to make Blake Bortles better. I think he was brought in to make Blake Bortles nervous. And that's not a recipe for having a good football team.

While speculative, the Jaguars' benching of Bortles for Kessler did not result in improvement, and Bortles was released shortly after.

Michigan was definitively the better team in the National Championship and it never felt like UConn was in danger of winning.

Michigan was the better team. We all saw it. It never felt like [the game] was in danger. Like the only moment that I was like, oh, UConn might have a chance, was when there was like maybe five and a half minutes left and Mullens missed that three to cut it to four.

The episode presents Michigan winning the 2026 National Championship as a fact within the show's timeline.

Michigan was the best team all year — outside of Duke, who would have won the championship by a lot

They were the best team. They were the best team all year outside of Duke. 'Cause that actually was my other big takeaway — Duke just completely, Duke beat this Michigan team a month and a half ago.

Subjective comparison of team quality. Duke did beat Michigan during the regular season in 2025-26.

Danny Hurley is 18-1 against the spread in his last four NCAA tournaments, which is insane

Danny Hurley remains 18 and one in the last four tournaments against the spread. How insane is that? Furman is the only one that they didn't cover. That was the first round this year.

This is a factual claim about Hurley's ATS record over the last four NCAA tournaments. Based on UConn's remarkable tournament run, this is plausible and presented as a known stat. Cannot fully verify exact record but the claim is stated as fact.
