The Bears defense is good enough to keep the team in every game this season

The defense will keep us in pretty much every game. You saw it today. The defense is gonna keep us in every game. Caleb [Williams] was really bad for, for three full quarters... and if he plays even like B minus football, I think we win this game.

The Bears defense remained solid, but they did not keep the team in every game as the offense and coaching staff faltered during a long losing streak following this game.

Jayden Daniels' rib was never actually hurt

I have a theory that his rib was never actually hurt. I think that after that first run of the Panthers game, the coaching staff was like, 'Hey Jayden, it's the Panthers. You just ran easily for 50 yards. First play of the game, let Marcus take over, go to the training room.' And then all week long it was all secret.

Jayden Daniels was genuinely on the injury report and it was widely reported he had a rib issue, though he did play through it.

I am not selling any stock in Caleb Williams despite his poor performance

Caleb, what he did in the fourth quarter is why I'm not, I'm not selling any of my stock in him. I know people will be like, he sucks, he's a bum, he's a bust. I got about a billion tweets of that. I don't care what he was doing in the fourth quarter. That throw to DJ Moore hanging in there where he is. Got no time getting killed. Yeah, I'm not. And then he threw that, that like sidearm underhand one. I'm not gonna change my opinion on Caleb Williams.

This is a long-term developmental opinion that remains subjective but shows high conviction during a low point.

The Bears coaching staff is a joke and needs to be replaced immediately

I reaffirmed my opinion that this coaching staff is a joke. And we need to get rid of them as soon as possible because it's like they're, they're, they're a joke. They're a joke. Like that's a bye week. You come out of a bye-week looking like that.

The Bears eventually fired Shane Waldron and later Matt Eberflus, confirming the organizational failure.

The intentional-grounding penalty was the right play

I actually think he had, that's an OC problem because there was no underneath route. If he throws that deep and, like, everyone had—it just was a shit show. He couldn't throw it deep because he was basically getting chased. If he takes a sack, everyone has to come back. It probably is more than 10 seconds to get the next play. So that one, I had no problem.

Whether the decision was optimal is an inherently debatable football judgment.

The Colts needed a complete reset after Chris Ballard's firing

Chris Ballard was there for 10 years, never won an AFC South. You finally just—it's inexcusable. The Andrew Luck retirement is probably what bought Chris Ballard a lot more years. He basically could just keep on saying, 'Well, our plans were screwed up because Andrew Luck retired.'

This is an evaluative judgment about a general manager's tenure and cannot be objectively resolved.

The NBA should start on Christmas Day and play 60 games

The NBA should start on Christmas day. It should be a 60-game schedule. It'd be so much better.

This is a preference about league scheduling and cannot be objectively resolved.
