Mike Tomlin should be a retroactive Coach of the Year for managing Brown, Bell, and Roethlisberger

I still believe that Mike Tomlin doesn't get enough credit for keeping that locker room together with Big Ben, Antonio Brown and Le'Veon Bell for nine years. So I just want to shout out Mike Tomlin... he should get coach of the year retroactively for that entire stretch.

While 'retroactive' awards don't exist, this opinion is widely shared by analysts reflecting on how much drama Tomlin managed while maintaining winning seasons.

The Titans are the one seed that can legitimately play the 'nobody believes in us' card

You are, this is the rarest thing you can have in all sports. You're literally the one seed in the AFC and you're disrespected. That's incredible to be able to play that card of like no one believes in us and truly no one believes in us.

The Titans lost their first playoff game as the 1-seed to the Bengals, largely proving the skeptics right.

Joe Burrow is an elite NFL quarterback

Joe Burrow, I think last week I said he was a leader. I think he's elite. I think Joe Burrow... I think I'm ready to officially declare right now... he just is.

Joe Burrow led the Bengals to a Super Bowl appearance later this season, cementing his status as one of the league's top-tier quarterbacks.

The Bulls can compete with anyone in the Eastern Conference

I actually think [the Bulls] are very, very good. And they could compete with anyone in the east... the nets do not scare me.

The Bulls finished as the 6th seed and lost in the first round of the playoffs to the Bucks 4-1.

The Brewers' pressure created their 'lucky' breaks

That's not luck. That's just the Brewers and what they did to you mentally, where it's like you have to be perfect and almost made teams just become a worse version of themselves because of what the Brewers were doing to them.

This is an evaluative baseball argument rather than a claim with one definitive result.

The Bears are building around Jeffrey Simmons correctly

Jeffrey Simmons is an absolute game wrecker. Top three at his position, changes everyone around him. The Bears had a weakness in their defense, especially run defense. They made it a strength.

The assessment of Simmons' impact and positional ranking is partly subjective and will depend on his Chicago performance.

Jeffrey Simmons makes the Bears Super Bowl contenders

I thought they could win the Super Bowl before Jeffrey Simmons. Now I really do.

The 2026 NFL season and Super Bowl outcome have not yet been resolved from the episode date.
