The Bears will hire Brian Flores and won't even interview Ben Johnson

The organization is not in a good place... Everything that I've read and heard, the Bears are going to hire Brian Flores. They're probably not even gonna interview Ben Johnson... Ryan Poles is gonna keep his job and that's gonna be an awkward [situation].

The Bears did NOT hire Brian Flores. They hired Ben Johnson from the Lions. Big Cat's prediction was wrong on all counts — the Bears did interview and hire Ben Johnson.

The Steelers are stuck in a cycle of 'good-ish' seasons followed by first-round exits.

you're going to see the, the exact same Steelers season repeat itself over and over again in the future... You're good-ish and you're always gonna be good-ish. You're gonna play teams hard, but you're probably not gonna do anything in the playoffs.

The Steelers lost to the Chiefs 37-17 in the Wild Card round, continuing the exact pattern PFT described.

The Brewers are the best team in baseball

They're the best team at baseball all year, and they proved it. They absolutely decimated the Dodgers.

The Brewers had reached the World Series and were described in the episode as having the best regular season; whether they were definitively the best team is partly subjective.

Bo Nix's problem is getting bigger

The Bo Nix problem seems to be getting bigger and bigger. What are we watching?

This is a judgment about Nix's trajectory and the Broncos' confidence in him, not a binary factual prediction.

A 24-team playoff is ruining college football

We're moving to a 24-team playoff. It just sucks. We don't need 24 teams. Twelve is probably a stretch already. What made college football special was the regular season mattered so much.

Whether playoff expansion improves or harms college football is an evaluative judgment.
