Jalen Hurts would be playing against the Cowboys if Dallas hadn't lost to the Jaguars.

I do kind of think that it was... if the Cowboys hadn't lost the Jaguars, I think Jalen Hurts would be playing in this game. That's what I feel like it's, it's one of those situations why potentially having to maybe play them a third time in the playoffs. Why give them anything, take care of business against the Saints the week after.

This is a counterfactual that cannot be verified, though Hurts did return for Week 18 to clinch the seed.

The Packers are not going to run the table and make the playoffs

I promise you. I promise They've got a really tough schedule. Yeah, they, they've got the Dolphins. They've got the Lions... I'm just, this guy's [Rodgers] never, yeah, Hank just, Hank just looked up. He's like, Ooh, they could win all those guys. Nah.

The Packers won their next four games but lost to the Lions in Week 18, missing the playoffs. PFT was correct that they would not run the table.

Trevor Lawrence would be drafted ahead of Justin Fields to start a franchise today

I I think Trevor Lawrence right now, I I'm being honest, would be ahead of him [Justin Fields]. I'm just wondering how high up Trevor Lawrence would be... I do think that that Trevor Lawrence is a, has shown more this year in terms of passing and like how much better he's gotten versus Justin Fields.

Subjective value judgment, though Lawrence's playoff success and market value generally remained higher than Fields' over the following year.

I would draft Justin Fields over Trevor Lawrence to start a franchise today.

I actually do disagree with you [Big Cat] though. I would take Justin Fields over Trevor Lawrence. Because I think that you can get better as a passer in the NFL. We've seen a couple guys do it and weapons around him. It's possible if you have good coaching around you, you've got good weapons, you can improve. ... I would rather have Justin Fields and Trevor Lawrence.

This remains a subjective debate, though Lawrence has achieved more playoff success while Fields has since been traded to the Steelers.

The Chargers' game against the Raiders is a must-win

The Chargers might have the most must-win game of all time playing the Raiders with the schedule they have. If they don't win this week, it's over.

The Chargers' season outcome and whether the loss effectively ended their season had not been resolved at the time of the episode.

Texas won; Ohio State choked

I'll say Texas win, Ryan Day choke. The play calling, I don't know, maybe they got too conservative. I think they probably did.

This is a retrospective interpretation of the game rather than a purely objective claim; assigning primary blame is subjective.

Oregon is probably out if it loses to USC

The USC game will be massive. If Oregon loses that game, they're probably out.

Oregon's playoff status after the USC game was still unresolved at the time of the episode.
