The Jets vs. Texans game is the 'portal game' that will decide the Jets' season.

The Houston Texans is your portal game. If you beat the Texans, everything is back. If you lose the Texans, shut it down. That's the portal game. And it's just fire sales.

The Jets won the portal game (21-13) but it did not lead to them being 'back' as they lost their next three games.

Brian Thomas Jr. might be the best rookie wide receiver in the NFL.

Brian Thomas might be the best rookie wide receiver now that Malik Nabers missed a couple games. Marvin Harrison is like, either he scores three touchdowns or doesn't catch a ball. Brian Thomas is the real deal looking awesome.

Brian Thomas Jr. finished with a very strong rookie campaign, though Nabers and Harrison Jr. also had elite stretches. It remains a high-level debate.

Tank Bigsby has one of the coolest names in the NFL.

Tank Bigsby deserves more credit for being one of the coolest names in the NFL... His real name is Cartus. Cartus is pretty solid... Cartus Bigsby. He is Cardi B.

Subjective opinion on name quality.

Jared Goff is a legitimate MVP candidate at +850 odds.

Jared Goff plus 850 on DraftKings Sportsbook for MVP. Just saying that... the last two guys who have had a three-game streak of 140 plus passer rating was Aaron Rodgers in 2011 when he won an MVP and Kurt Warner in 1999 when he won an MVP.

Goff remained in the conversation deep into the season, though Lamar Jackson emerged as the heavy favorite.

Michigan was definitively the better team in the National Championship and it never felt like UConn was in danger of winning.

Michigan was the better team. We all saw it. It never felt like [the game] was in danger. Like the only moment that I was like, oh, UConn might have a chance, was when there was like maybe five and a half minutes left and Mullens missed that three to cut it to four.

The episode presents Michigan winning the 2026 National Championship as a fact within the show's timeline.

Michigan was the best team all year — outside of Duke, who would have won the championship by a lot

They were the best team. They were the best team all year outside of Duke. 'Cause that actually was my other big takeaway — Duke just completely, Duke beat this Michigan team a month and a half ago.

Subjective comparison of team quality. Duke did beat Michigan during the regular season in 2025-26.

Danny Hurley is 18-1 against the spread in his last four NCAA tournaments, which is insane

Danny Hurley remains 18 and one in the last four tournaments against the spread. How insane is that? Furman is the only one that they didn't cover. That was the first round this year.

This is a factual claim about Hurley's ATS record over the last four NCAA tournaments. Based on UConn's remarkable tournament run, this is plausible and presented as a known stat. Cannot fully verify exact record but the claim is stated as fact.
