The perfect NFL schedule is 17 games over 19 weeks with the Super Bowl on President's Day weekend

I have the perfect NFL schedule... 17 games, 19 weeks, two buys, and you stretch it out so that the playoffs start in mid-January and Super Bowl Sunday is now President's Day weekend. Boom. So you get the Monday off... All Christmas week, just eliminate that week on the schedule of NFL football because you can watch bowl games.

The NFL moved to a 17-game, 18-week schedule with one bye. The Super Bowl now usually falls one week before President's Day weekend, not on it.

Duke has already lost the last game of the year

Duke has already lost the last game of the year, guys. I said it. Sorry. It already happened.

The 2020 NCAA Tournament was cancelled shortly after this episode due to the COVID-19 pandemic, so Duke technically didn't lose another game that season.

Jameis Winston is a future Hall of Famer because he throws so many interceptions to learn from

If you learn more from a loss and interception than you do from throwing a touchdown or winning a game like [Jameis Winston] is going to be—that's why he's a future Hall of Famer. He's just storing up all the knowledge right now.

Winston did not become a Hall of Fame caliber player; his career remained marked by turnovers and backup roles.

More football is always better

I'm technically in favor of this [expanding the schedule] because it's more football and more football equals better.

This is a subjective value judgment on the quality of the NFL product.

The Brewers' pressure created their 'lucky' breaks

That's not luck. That's just the Brewers and what they did to you mentally, where it's like you have to be perfect and almost made teams just become a worse version of themselves because of what the Brewers were doing to them.

This is an evaluative baseball argument rather than a claim with one definitive result.

The Bears are building around Jeffrey Simmons correctly

Jeffrey Simmons is an absolute game wrecker. Top three at his position, changes everyone around him. The Bears had a weakness in their defense, especially run defense. They made it a strength.

The assessment of Simmons' impact and positional ranking is partly subjective and will depend on his Chicago performance.

Jeffrey Simmons makes the Bears Super Bowl contenders

I thought they could win the Super Bowl before Jeffrey Simmons. Now I really do.

The 2026 NFL season and Super Bowl outcome have not yet been resolved from the episode date.
