Trevor Lawrence would be drafted ahead of Justin Fields to start a franchise today

I I think Trevor Lawrence right now, I I'm being honest, would be ahead of him [Justin Fields]. I'm just wondering how high up Trevor Lawrence would be... I do think that that Trevor Lawrence is a, has shown more this year in terms of passing and like how much better he's gotten versus Justin Fields.

Subjective value judgment, though Lawrence's playoff success and market value generally remained higher than Fields' over the following year.

The Packers are not going to run the table and make the playoffs

I promise you. I promise They've got a really tough schedule. Yeah, they, they've got the Dolphins. They've got the Lions... I'm just, this guy's [Rodgers] never, yeah, Hank just, Hank just looked up. He's like, Ooh, they could win all those guys. Nah.

The Packers won their next four games but lost to the Lions in Week 18, missing the playoffs. PFT was correct that they would not run the table.

I would draft Justin Fields over Trevor Lawrence to start a franchise today.

I actually do disagree with you [Big Cat] though. I would take Justin Fields over Trevor Lawrence. Because I think that you can get better as a passer in the NFL. We've seen a couple guys do it and weapons around him. It's possible if you have good coaching around you, you've got good weapons, you can improve. ... I would rather have Justin Fields and Trevor Lawrence.

This remains a subjective debate, though Lawrence has achieved more playoff success while Fields has since been traded to the Steelers.

The Packers will lose to the Dolphins on Christmas Day.

The Packers are in the primed to make a run position. So like if they go down to Miami, they win this game, then Yeah. Watch out the Packers. They might run the table. I don't think they're gonna win this game.

The Packers defeated the Dolphins 26-20 on Christmas Day 2022.

Michigan was definitively the better team in the National Championship and it never felt like UConn was in danger of winning.

Michigan was the better team. We all saw it. It never felt like [the game] was in danger. Like the only moment that I was like, oh, UConn might have a chance, was when there was like maybe five and a half minutes left and Mullens missed that three to cut it to four.

The episode presents Michigan winning the 2026 National Championship as a fact within the show's timeline.

Michigan was the best team all year — outside of Duke, who would have won the championship by a lot

They were the best team. They were the best team all year outside of Duke. 'Cause that actually was my other big takeaway — Duke just completely, Duke beat this Michigan team a month and a half ago.

Subjective comparison of team quality. Duke did beat Michigan during the regular season in 2025-26.

Danny Hurley is 18-1 against the spread in his last four NCAA tournaments, which is insane

Danny Hurley remains 18 and one in the last four tournaments against the spread. How insane is that? Furman is the only one that they didn't cover. That was the first round this year.

This is a factual claim about Hurley's ATS record over the last four NCAA tournaments. Based on UConn's remarkable tournament run, this is plausible and presented as a known stat. Cannot fully verify exact record but the claim is stated as fact.
