The Dolphins are for real because they won a tough defensive game

I walked away from this being like, yeah, the dolphins are for real, for real. Because remember we talked about Mike McDaniel when he has to face adversity, when he has to win the tough games, this was a tough fucking game. They had the ball for 20 minutes. The bills had the ball for 40. Like they had to dig deep and their defense had to make big fucking plays and they were able to do it.

The 2022 Dolphins did make the playoffs, validating the 'for real' claim, though they lost in the Wild Card round.

The Seahawks won the Russell Wilson trade because they got Geno Smith

I think it's time to ask the question, Big Cat: who won the Russell Wilson [for] Drew Lock trade? I mean, without Drew Lock, there would be no Geno Smith. Running back right now, cooking. Geno is literally writing back to everybody this week. He's doing a Rich Bisaccia and handwriting letters to everybody that hated on him.

In hindsight, this became a very common and largely correct sentiment as the Seahawks made the playoffs and the Broncos cratered.

The Bills aren't built to win in Florida or win close games

I think the Bills just can't play in Florida because they had the Jacksonville game last year, they had the Tampa Bay game last year and they have this one. They're not built for the sunshine state. They're also not built to win close games right at all. They've got 20 straight wins by double digit scores and they have zero wins in their last six one-score games.

The Bills' struggles in close games continued through 2022, notably losing to the Bengals in the playoffs, and they remained 0-7 in one-score games until later in the season.

The Dolphins will be 11-0 in December

I think there's a chance that after this game they might be favored in every game until December... that's when they go to Buffalo... so we might have 11 and oh. That's call my shot. 11 and oh in December.

The Dolphins did not go 11-0. They lost their very next game to the Bengals on Thursday Night Football and finished the season 9-8.

Victor Wembanyama is already better than LeBron James

I'm gonna enjoy him because he's, he's like, I I said on Wednesday's show, he is, he's already better than LeBron. So I, that's how I'm gonna enjoy him.

Comparing players across eras or at different career stages is inherently subjective.

People only hate on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's flopping because his play style is fundamentally boring

I actually think the problem with SGA more than anything is he's just boring. That's really what people are upset about. The flopping like sucks. But... more than anything he's just, he's boring because he is a lethal mid-range guy. He doesn't have flashy dunks. He's not doing... He's just methodically an exceptional basketball player.

Subjective analysis of fan sentiment regarding a player's style.

The Cavaliers-Knicks series is over after Game 1

Series over, you can't lose that game if you're the Cavs. When it went into overtime, we said the Cavs have to win this. This is must win. You can't give this up. All time choke.

The series has just begun as of the episode date.
