The Ravens' defense is the first real test for the Chiefs' offense

The Ravens, this is the best team the Ravens are going to play in a while. ... this is the best defense the Chiefs have played in a while. So can the Chiefs play against a good defense in cold weather in December? This is my are-we-sure-they're-good game.

The Ravens held the Chiefs to 27 points (below their 35 PPG average) and took them to overtime, proving the defense was indeed a significant test.

The Cowboys will win the NFC East if they beat the Eagles in Week 14

This is the week that if the Cowboys beat the Eagles, they have basically won the NFC East. And it will be very hard for them to lose it.

The Cowboys did beat the Eagles 29-23 in Week 14 and went on to win the NFC East title.

The Cowboys will find a way to fuck up their season despite their current success

If there's anything I know about the Cowboys, they'll find a way to fuck it all up.

The Cowboys won the division and a playoff game but lost in the Divisional Round to the Rams, continuing their streak of not reaching an NFC Championship Game.

The Chiefs' game against the Ravens is just a tune-up game for Kansas City

I would also call this a tune-up game for KC. ... It's a tune-up game for the reasons that you said, so that we get to finally put to bed... because Kansas City's beaten a lot of teams with shitty defenses.

The game went to overtime and was decided by only three points (27-24), meaning it was far from a 'tune-up' breeze.

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.
