Sam Howell will be a Heisman contender in a few years

The Military Bowl UNC Sam Howell's awesome... circle him because he's going to be sort of like a Heisman guy in a couple years. He's a freshman true freshman.

Howell was a major Heisman candidate in preseason rankings for 2021, validating the 'Heisman guy' potential, though he didn't win or reach NYC as a finalist.

Pete Carroll took a deliberate delay of game to avoid another goal-line mistake with Marshawn Lynch

I actually think conspiracy theory here that Pete Carroll took the delay game on purpose because he didn't want to be stuck in a situation where he screwed up on the one-yard line again with Marshawn Lynch back... Pete Carroll kind of saved himself from himself by backing it up to the 6-yard line.

While the delay of game was a major mistake, there is no evidence it was a psychological ploy by Carroll to avoid a goal-line decision.

Russell Wilson is the best quarterback to have with the ball at the end of a game

In terms of quarterbacks I want to have the ball at the end of the game, [Russell Wilson] is my number one. Yeah, he's my number one, even though they didn't score there, he's still my number one because he did everything to get them to score.

Subjective opinion on quarterback clutchness.

Kyle Shanahan lowered the 49ers' win probability by 19% by punting on fourth and one

Kyle Shanahan you kind of let me down by punting there on fourth and one when your offense is so good... their percentage to win the game went down by 19 percent by punting instead of going I thought they should have gone for it.

Analytical models at the time generally agreed that punting in that specific high-leverage fourth-and-short situation was a significant win-probability error.

Victor Wembanyama is the best watch in the NBA right now

[Wembanyama] is the best watch in the NBA right now. It's not even close... just his entire performance leaving it like, he was so gassed that three that looked like we were talking about it, it looked like it was almost like there was a whistle beforehand because it was like in slow motion. It was just incredible.

This is a subjective opinion about entertainment value.
