The Bears offense is a major worry for January

I will be honest—I have worries about the offense at times. That's all I'll say... Mitch [Trubisky] was coming back from an injury. I don't know if he's 100% healthy. The offense did not click the way that they'll need to click in January.

The Bears lost their first playoff game 16-15, with the offense scoring only one touchdown.

The Bears are now the class of the NFC

I think that we should [talk about the Bears] because they are now the class of the NFC. I'll just say it. Sean McVay can name every single player that picked him off tonight.

The Bears finished 12-4 but lost in the Wild Card round (Double Doink). The Saints and Rams were generally considered superior as they reached the NFC Championship.

Defense still wins games when the weather gets cold

I'm just going to say it, boys. Once the weather starts getting cold, defense does show up... I think defense still wins games.

A classic football debate. While defense is crucial, the 2018 season was still defined by offensive innovation, though the Super Bowl ended up being a 13-3 defensive struggle.

The NFL will overreact to this defensive week by trying to hire the next Aaron Donald or Khalil Mack

What's going to be so funny, by the way, is going to be the NFL overreacting to one week of really good defensive play... and now they'll be like, you need to go out there and get a defense like that. As opposed to the first 12 weeks when it's like, you've got to get the next Sean McVay... now it's going to be, well, you can just go get Aaron Donald or Khalil Mack. It'll be good.

The NFL is famously a copycat league, though the 'offensive guru' trend continued for years regardless of this specific week.

The Vikings officially have a Kyler Murray problem

I think we can officially say they have a Kyler Murray problem. Justin Jefferson has reached his point where he's like, 'What the fuck is going on?' So that would be my point. Maybe there's a Kyler Murray issue.

Whether Minnesota had a significant Kyler Murray problem is an evaluative football judgment rather than a definitively resolvable fact.

The Vikings should trade for Kirk Cousins

What if I told you the Vikings could trade for a quarterback that has 18 touchdown passes and a rushing touchdown? Would that be something you think you'd be interested in if you were a Minnesota Viking fan? Kirk Cousins.

Whether Kirk Cousins was traded to Minnesota during the 2026 season is not established by the transcript or reliably known here.

Jalen Warren is a top-five running back

Jalen Warren is the top five running back this year. And it's like watching him play, that changes what I think about the Steelers.

Top-five running back status is ultimately a subjective ranking that cannot be definitively resolved.
