Ryan Day is only propped up as a coach because James Franklin exists to lose to him

Ryan Day should be when he goes to bed at night, he should just thank his lucky stars that James Franklin exists. 'cause James Franklin is basically propped up Ryan Day. James Franklin beats everyone but the big one, and Ryan Day always beats Penn State.

This is a subjective analysis of coaching reputations and head-to-head records.

Cincinnati's playoff, chances are officially DEAD, dead... I think the Bengals officially are done. They gotta take the ping pong table out now.

The Bengals did indeed miss the playoffs.

There has never been a worse coach in close games than Matt Eberflus

It was obvious that it had to happen because there's never been a worse coach in close games than Matt Eberflus. Like I think that statistically actually is proven true. The timeout is, so obviously Caleb [Williams] deserves some blame for it, but... the second there's any hesitation, it's like 80/20, Matt Eberflus's.

Statistically, Eberflus had one of the worst winning percentages in one-score games at the time of his firing.

Caleb Williams is a very good quarterback despite poor coaching

Caleb Williams is very, very good. And I know that people will, there's a lot of people who box score watch or they've only seen him in primetime games. Caleb Williams is very, very good. He's on pace for 3,700 yards, 20 plus touchdowns and less than 10 interceptions. The only other rookies to do it, I would assume Jayden Daniels is gonna do it. Maybe Bo Nix. But the only other two rookies to do those numbers are Justin Herbert and CJ Stroud.

Caleb Williams finished his rookie season with strong stats, though the team continued to struggle.

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.
