The Chiefs trading up for Patrick Mahomes was the worst pick in the draft

The worst pick, I think, in the draft was Mahomes at 10 and the Chiefs trading up 17 picks to get him? Do you think they did that because they're like, yo, Ryan Pace is going to get a lot of heat? Now's our time to just go under the radar and just, who cares? No one's going to talk about us.

Patrick Mahomes became arguably the greatest quarterback of his generation, making this an all-time 'Freezing Cold Take'.

Mitchell Trubisky will be good for the Bears

I'm going to spin zone it real quick. I think [Mitchell Trubisky] is going to be good, okay? And he gets to learn behind Mike Glennon and Mark Sanchez... He actually had, I read this stat because I was digging deep trying to sell myself on this. I have 66% completion rate under pressure. Highest of any quarterback drafted in the first round.

Mitchell Trubisky is widely considered a bust for the Bears, especially given they passed on Patrick Mahomes and Deshaun Watson.

Gareon Conley is better off in Las Vegas than Cleveland

Do you think that [Gareon] Conley's going to be better off getting away from Cleveland where there's all these nightlife and temptations and all that and going to a low-key place like Las Vegas? I think that'll keep him in line... The desert heat might dry you out. Stay out of trouble.

The joke is that Las Vegas is far more of a 'nightlife' city than Cleveland.

I would come out of retirement to play for the Browns for $15-18 million

If Cleveland offered you, let's just say $15 million a year, are you coming back? Absolutely... 15 to 18 a year. I'll be back.

The Browns never offered this, and McNabb remained retired.

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.
