The loser of the Cowboys-Dolphins game is officially a fraud, while the winner is a true Super Bowl contender

Whoever wins this game, the loser I'm going to think is just forget about it. ... winner's a super Bowl contender in my mind. This, this is the most important game of the, of the season in the entire NFL. ... They might as well just eliminate the loser from the playoffs and put the winner into their conference championship.

The Dolphins won the game but both teams were eliminated in the Wild Card round, largely validating the 'fraud' concerns for both, despite the winner status.

Matt Stafford is a Hall of Famer

Matt Stafford is a hall of Famer and watching him play football is fun. Like his, the the throws he makes And, it, it's, it doesn't feel like it's gratuitous. It's like it's making some of these throws. 'cause he has to make these throws.

Stafford is still active, so his HOF status is pending, but the consensus on his candidacy improved significantly after his Rams Super Bowl 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.

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.
