The only consistent teams you can trust in the NFL are the Eagles and the Patriots

The only two consistents are the Patriots and the Eagles. So the only two teams at this point in the season where you can confidently say I would trust those teams.

The Eagles and Patriots both finished 13-3 and met in Super Bowl LII, confirming they were indeed the class of the league.

The Saints are a really good football team

The Saints are really, really good. And I think it helped that they were playing against Jameis Winston today... the only two teams at this point in the season where you can confidently say I would trust those teams [Eagles and Patriots] and maybe the Saints.

The Saints finished 11-5, won the NFC South, and reached the Divisional Round, proving they were a top-tier team.

The Falcons' Super Bowl hangover is real

The Falcons, Super Bowl hangover, real. Not to brag, but we called that. Remember over the summer when they had a rash of articles that were like, hey, these Falcons, they're going to bounce back... they've put it behind them, which is exactly what someone who is rattled by the Super Bowl would say. And it's proving true with how shitty they play week in and week out.

The 2017 Falcons went 10-6 and lost in the Divisional Round, a significant regression from their record-breaking 2016 offensive performance.

Kirk Cousins earns $7 million for every half-decent throw

Kirk Cousins makes himself about $7 million for every half-decent throw that he has in a game. So he'll suck for a good three quarters, and then he'll have two good intermediate passes, and you're like, okay, yeah, somebody's going to pay him $25 million next year.

While the $7m per throw is hyperbole, Cousins did sign a record-setting $84 million fully guaranteed contract the following offseason.

The Lions will win the NFC North

I think they're gonna be really good. Are the Lions on Crosby watch? ... I think them and maybe the Cowboys might be on Crosby watch. ... I think they probably will win the NFC North.

The 2026 NFC North winner will determine whether this prediction was correct.

The Bears could have a top-five offense even if they miss the playoffs

There's a world where the Bears don't make the playoffs, but they're a top-five offense. And our defense is so bad that I can almost—I would be very upset, but I could deal with it.

This resolves when the 2026 regular season ends and Chicago's offensive ranking and playoff status are known.

The Jaguars could win the AFC South

I think the Jaguars are not getting any respect or talked about a lot. I think they're gonna be really good this year. They could win the South. I think Trevor Lawrence is gonna keep going forward.

The Jaguars' season and Trevor Lawrence's 2026 performance will determine the prediction.
