The Rams were definitively the best team in the NFL this season

I'm walking away from this season not being like, oh man, it feels like the best team didn't win. All the Rams were the best team. They kicked the shit out of the Cardinals, they slayed the dragon in Tampa Bay and made Tom Brady retire, they then beat the boogeyman and Kyle Shanahan and the 49ers, and then they beat the Bengals. The Rams are a very good team.

They won the Super Bowl after a dominant playoff run, making them the de facto best team of the season.

Cooper Kupp just had one of the greatest wide receiver seasons of all time

I would say off the top of my head, [Cooper Kupp] is up there now with greatest wide receiver seasons of all time. In terms of his regular season and then what he did in the playoffs and what he did on that fourth quarter when it was pretty much they can't run the ball... the whole world knew it was going to Cooper Kupp and you still couldn't stop Cooper Kupp.

Kupp won the Triple Crown, Offensive Player of the Year, and Super Bowl MVP in the same season, statistically confirming it as one of the best WR seasons ever.

Eli Apple is the most disliked player in the NFL

Do you think that there's a more disliked player in the NFL than Eli Apple? Cause they picked on him and it was like every single player that was watching the game, current players, were just roasting the fuck out of him. Like he was getting just dragged by guys that are like the third wide out on some of the worst teams.

While 'most disliked' is subjective, the social media vitriol from peers (Mecole Hardman, etc.) at the time was unprecedented for a non-star.

The NFL has a 'super team' problem because the last two winners were built this way

I want to get ahead of the take because someone's about to drop this one. Does the NFL have a super team problem? Cause the last two super bowls were ruined by super teams.

The 'super team' trend in the NFL (Rams, Bucs) didn't actually persist as strongly in the following years with the Chiefs and Eagles winning/appearing.

Derrick Henry is one of the last running backs with a Hall of Fame case

He's gonna be one of the last running backs that's gonna go into the Hall. Hall of Fame for running backs is gonna get very difficult soon.

Hall of Fame selection is partly subjective, and the future class of running backs has not been determined.

The Bears' offense may be record-breaking under Ben Johnson

Ben Johnson said, 'We're trying to break the record,' and so far, obviously small sample size, one game, good start.

The Bears' full-season offensive output has not been resolved.

I am giving Ben Johnson total control

I will hand over all free will and thought and just give it to him and be like, whatever you say, I will just do whatever you decide. I will say, yes, that was the correct decision.

This is a subjective expression of confidence in a coach's decision-making.
