The era of Bryce Young in Carolina is officially over

We had the news that Andy Dalton is now the quarterback of the Carolina Panthers. And I feel like it is officially over for Bryce Young. Not really a hot take, but we were talking about it on Sunday. Yeah. When you threw that out there. I was like, the only problem is if you go to and Dalton, I don't know if you can ever go back unless there's an injury, because Andy Dalton is going to be better than Bryce Young.

Young was eventually benched, then started again later in the season due to Dalton's injury/performance. However, the general consensus remains that Young is no longer the long-term franchise answer for Carolina.

The narrative that the NFC South is the worst division in football is officially over

I believe that we officially have to end the narrative that the NFC South is the worst division in football because they have the two and Oh Saints, the one and one Falcons, the two and oh bucks. They're a good division now.

By season's end, the NFC South actually remained one of the weaker divisions statistically, though it was improved from the previous year.

Nick Sirianni should have been arrested for not kicking the field goal in the first half

The Eagles could have won if they had kicked that field goal in the first quarter. Which, and it's not, it's not hindsight to say it. I tweeted out at the time that Nick Sirianni should be arrested... I think that just the take that Nick Sirianni should be arrested is applicable to all sorts of different things that he does.

The Eagles lost by one point (22-21). If they had taken a field goal instead of failing on 4th down early in the game, the final score would literally have changed the outcome. The 'arrested' part is obviously metaphorical.

The Eagles should have run the ball twice on their final offensive possession

Running the football there... I'll even get crazy here. Ready? Ready for this Max. I think you run it twice and you get a first down because you're the Philadelphia Eagles and no one can stop when you run it with your biggest offensive line in football.

While speculative, the Eagles are known for the 'Tush Push' and have a dominant run game. Running the ball would have burned at least 40 more seconds off the clock, making the Falcons' final drive much more difficult.

American sports dominance is officially over

Are we as a country washed? because this also is on the heels of shams announcing SGA back to back MVP and I think it's been like nine years, I believe eight years since an American has won the NBA MVP... and Aaron Rai, it's the second European to win a major this year and Europeans are now two and oh in majors for the first time since 1934.

While hyperbolically stated, the fact that international players have dominated NBA MVPs (Jokic, Giannis, Embiid, SGA) for nearly a decade is factual.

The Steelers will be stuck with a 7-10 win ceiling with Aaron Rodgers

Aaron Rodgers is back. I feel bad for Steelers fans... he's not the same quarterback... the Steelers just put a finite floor and ceiling on their season. Right? And it's somewhere between seven and 10 wins. That's what we're thinking.

Outcome depends on the 2026 NFL season results for the Steelers.

The Chicago White Sox are no longer a joke and could win the AL Central

White Sox are good. They're actually like, this is finally like, it's kind of, they're not a joke. They've got some sluggers. Big time dude... I don't know what the price is for them winning the AL Central, but they, they, they are not a bad team.

White Sox performance in the 2026 MLB season is ongoing.
