The Bears vs. Saints game is a Must Win

The Bears are right now, what is it? Four and a half point favorites. This is a game that the Bears have to win. I'm dubbing it a Must Win because the Bears are, you'd think better than the Saints.

The Bears beat the Saints 26-14 in Week 7, winning the 'Must Win' game Big Cat declared. They went on to make the playoffs at 11-6.

Joe Flacco will eventually play for the Steelers because Mike Tomlin respects him so much

I think one day [Joe Flacco] is gonna end up playing for the Steelers. Because Mike Tomlin absolutely hates Joe Flacco. He respects him and he hates playing against him.

This is a long-term career prediction for Flacco.

The Bengals will finish 10-7 if they beat the Jets and the Bears in their next two games

If they beat the Jets and the Bears... that would be five and four. They play the Patriots, Ravens, Bills, Ravens. Let's say they go one and three there... that would make 'em six and seven. Then they beat the Dolphins, Cardinals and Browns to finish the season. By my math, that's 10 and seven.

The Bengals actually finished the 2025 season 9-8, narrowly missing this 10-7 prediction.

The Dodgers are going to beat the fuck out of every other team in the playoffs

I think the Dodgers are gonna beat the fuck out of every other team and it's not even gonna be close.

The Dodgers won the 2025 World Series, beating the Blue Jays in 7 games. While it was close (going to Game 7), the Dodgers dominated the NL playoffs, sweeping the Brewers in the NLCS.

The Chargers' game against the Raiders is a must-win

The Chargers might have the most must-win game of all time playing the Raiders with the schedule they have. If they don't win this week, it's over.

The Chargers' season outcome and whether the loss effectively ended their season had not been resolved at the time of the episode.

Texas won; Ohio State choked

I'll say Texas win, Ryan Day choke. The play calling, I don't know, maybe they got too conservative. I think they probably did.

This is a retrospective interpretation of the game rather than a purely objective claim; assigning primary blame is subjective.

Oregon is probably out if it loses to USC

The USC game will be massive. If Oregon loses that game, they're probably out.

Oregon's playoff status after the USC game was still unresolved at the time of the episode.
