The Cowboys are legitimate Super Bowl contenders

I threw out there that the Cowboys are legitimate Super Bowl contender last week... I still think it. The Cowboys get credit for beating the fuck out of the Giants... their defense is lights out.

The Cowboys lost in the Wild Card round to the 49ers, failing to live up to contender status.

The Patriots needed to get their ass kicked to refocus for the playoffs

I actually think they needed to get their ass kicked a little bit... Bill Belichick is going to be living inside the Patriots' asses this week and I think they're probably going to be better in the long term for it.

The Patriots actually lost 3 of their final 4 games and were blown out by the Bills in the Wild Card round, suggesting the loss did not lead to a 'refocus' or improvement.

TJ Watt should win Defensive Player of the Year

TJ Watt is, I know he won't win it, but he should win Defensive Player of the Year. I know that the Browns fans will be like Myles Garrett... [Watt] has 17 and a half sacks and he's played 10 full games. He does everything for them.

T.J. Watt did win the 2021 NFL Defensive Player of the Year award, tying the single-season sack record.

The Cardinals are frauds

I've been thinking about them [the Cardinals] all year. I've been thinking about putting the F-word on him... The Cardinals are definitely fraudulent.

The Cardinals confirmed this take by continuing their late-season collapse and losing in embarrassing fashion to the Rams in the first round of the playoffs.

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.
