The Ravens are a Super Bowl championship level team

The Ravens are just like a complete team. Full, full. Like everything... This team is a Super Bowl championship level team. And they do have to play possibly two other teams that are in that level, which is unfortunate, but like they're just so good and so complete.

Big Cat said the Ravens were a Super Bowl championship level team. The Ravens were indeed among the best teams in the AFC, winning a Wild Card game 28-14 over the Steelers, but lost in the Divisional Round to the Bills 27-25. They were elite but fell short of the Super Bowl.

The Houston Texans' defense won them the Wild Card game against the Chargers

That Texans defense, holy shit, did they bring it on Saturday? They were so goddamn good. And not only were they so good, I thought that game was decided by the fact that the Chargers came out like basically a perfect start... if the Texans defense doesn't play their balls off to start the game... that game could look totally different.

The Texans beat the Chargers 32-12, largely on the back of defensive dominance and forcing turnovers.

The Chargers' offense over-relied on Lad McConkey

I think the Chargers ran into an acute case of building their entire offense out of Lad McConkey. Lad McConkey had 197 yards. The other wide receivers had 45... They just couldn't do anything that wasn't Lad McConkey.

Verified by the box score; McConkey was indeed the vast majority of the Chargers' passing production.

I'm buying all the Justin Herbert stock right now

I'll say this right now, and this isn't me defending Justin Herbert because he was terrible on Saturday. I will buy all the Justin Herbert stock right now... If you think that he's just like a terrible quarterback, that's fine. I still think he's pretty good.

Herbert is widely considered a top talent despite the poor playoff showing.

Victor Wembanyama is already better than LeBron James

I'm gonna enjoy him because he's, he's like, I I said on Wednesday's show, he is, he's already better than LeBron. So I, that's how I'm gonna enjoy him.

Comparing players across eras or at different career stages is inherently subjective.

People only hate on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's flopping because his play style is fundamentally boring

I actually think the problem with SGA more than anything is he's just boring. That's really what people are upset about. The flopping like sucks. But... more than anything he's just, he's boring because he is a lethal mid-range guy. He doesn't have flashy dunks. He's not doing... He's just methodically an exceptional basketball player.

Subjective analysis of fan sentiment regarding a player's style.
