The Panthers should start Bryce Young because there is no downside to him being bad.

Why not just play Bryce Young anymore? Bryce Young could easily throw a pick-six in another pick to put him in a big hole and then the game be over in the first quarter... play him and see what you got. What's the downside? If he's bad, you're at the exact same spot.

The Panthers did eventually return to Bryce Young later in the season.

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.

Ben Johnson ran the illegal play wrong on purpose

I think Ben Johnson ran it wrong on purpose to put something on tape that then he can run a variation off of it.

This is an interpretation of coaching intent that cannot be definitively verified from the game broadcast.

The Bears are good

I think the Bears are good.

Whether the 2026 Bears are 'good' is ultimately a season-level subjective assessment.

The NFL is testing its way toward Tuesday and Wednesday games

Florio basically was like the NFL is testing out putting teams three times in a row on primetime because we're going to get to a point where they start playing Tuesday and Wednesday games. And I believe it.

This can be evaluated if the NFL introduces regular Tuesday or Wednesday games as described.
