The Atlanta Falcons might not actually be good

Are the falcons good? I don't know... they had some bad losses. They lost the chiefs, the chargers too, right?... The Falcons might not be good. Actually, if you look at the first half of the Super Bowl, they were good. Second half, not so good. You know what I'm doing? I'm crossing them off my list.

The Falcons went 10-6 in 2017 and won a playoff game, proving they were still 'good' even if they regressed.

Super Bowl 51 is the best Super Bowl of all time

Number one, right off the bat, is this the best Super Bowl of all time? ... [Big Cat] well, people forget there's never been an overtime. [PFT Commenter] That's a good point.

Widely regarded as one of, if not the greatest Super Bowl due to the unprecedented comeback and first-ever overtime.

The Falcons lost Super Bowl 51 more than the Patriots won it

Maybe the biggest thing that we're going to talk about is, did the Patriots win this game or did the Falcons lose it? Ooh, I think they lost it. I think the Falcons lost it.

Subjective sports debate, though the Falcons blowing a 28-3 lead is widely considered the greatest choke in Super Bowl history.

James White should have been the Super Bowl 51 MVP over Tom Brady

James White had a great game. Getting in on the fun. He should have been MVP. He had three touchdowns. He was all over the field. They had no answer for him. Tom Brady did the old Brett Favre. It was a participation trophy for Tom Brady. It was a lifetime achievement award.

Tom Brady was officially named MVP. While White had a historic game, Brady threw for a then-record 466 yards in the greatest comeback ever, making his win justifiable even if White was a strong candidate.

Ben Johnson ran the illegal play wrong on purpose

I think Ben Johnson ran it wrong on purpose to put something on tape that then he can run a variation off of it.

This is an interpretation of coaching intent that cannot be definitively verified from the game broadcast.

The Bears are good

I think the Bears are good.

Whether the 2026 Bears are 'good' is ultimately a season-level subjective assessment.

The NFL is testing its way toward Tuesday and Wednesday games

Florio basically was like the NFL is testing out putting teams three times in a row on primetime because we're going to get to a point where they start playing Tuesday and Wednesday games. And I believe it.

This can be evaluated if the NFL introduces regular Tuesday or Wednesday games as described.
