With Marlon Humphrey getting hurt last week and Lamar Jackson getting hurt this week... You officially are the champions of most injured team of 2021. Like I said, you probably already had that crown, but this was like, this was the final piece of having Lamar Jackson getting hurt.

Steve Kornacki's 'phantom scroll' is a blank prop with nothing written on it

I'm a Kornacki scroll truther. I don't think that he actually has anything written on that piece of paper. [It's] probably a prop.

This is a subjective humorous claim about a TV production element.

Teams down nine points should go for two early to gain strategic clarity

Harbaugh gave us a new little wrinkle to think about... if you're down nine, you go for two, because you're going to have to go for two anyways, to win. You're going to want to know exactly when you need to get that two points.

This is a common modern analytical takeaway that many coaches have started to adopt to manage late-game clock and possessions.

Every team in the AFC North is actually just very average

I think all the teams in the [AFC North] when they play their best games are very good, but they usually don't play their best. They're just very average teams. I think, man, this really makes me wish that the Steelers weren't on Thursday night.

The division was highly mediocre in 2021; the Bengals won it with just 10 wins, and no team finished with more than 10 wins.

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.

Series over, you can't lose that game if you're the Cavs. When it went into overtime, we said the Cavs have to win this. This is must win. You can't give this up. All time choke.

The series has just begun as of the episode date.
