Mike Ditka is the true revolutionary of the tight end position because he was the first to have 1,000 receiving yards and enter the Hall of Fame.

Mike Ditka came on the scene two years before John Mackey. Mike Ditka was the first tight end to ever have a thousand yards receiving in a season—John Mackey never did that. Mike Ditka was also the first tight end to be voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. So I think if you want to do who revolutionized the position, he's the guy.

Ditka was indeed the first tight end with 1,000 yards (1,076 in 1961) and the first TE inducted into the Hall of Fame (1988).

Cam Newton was never given a decent wide receiver besides Steve Smith in Carolina

Cam Newton like was the Panthers... He also never had a really good wide receiver besides Steve Smith and got screwed out of probably some great years of his prime carrying a bad Panthers team to the Super Bowl in 2015... throwing for 35 touchdowns and running for ten touchdowns... and his wide receivers were Ted Ginn, Devin Funchess, Corey Brown and the 33 year old Jerricho Cotchery. That's incredible.

Newton's receiving corps outside of Greg Olsen (TE) and early Steve Smith was notoriously thin during his prime years, supporting this take.

Jon Gruden will want to sign Cam Newton because he falls in love with every QB he broadcasts

That's a big time Jon Gruden move. I could see Gruden going after [Cam Newton] because Gruden probably fell in love with Cam Newton watching him in the booth on Monday Night Football. That's what Gruden does—if he broadcasts a couple of your games where you play well, he's just like, he instantly will fall in love with you.

Gruden did not sign Cam Newton; Newton signed with the Patriots.

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.
