Justin Fields is finished as the quarterback in Chicago

It's over. Because I think we've seen a big enough sample size to know that there hasn't been enough improvement to say I want to see more. Justin Fields struggles to make layups and free throws. If you can't make the layups and the free throws, I'm not concerned that you can make the Alley-OOP dunk. Anytime a quarterback is living by running a football, that quarterback can't survive.

The Bears traded Fields to the Steelers following the 2023 season, effectively ending his tenure as their starter.

The Detroit Lions are for real

The Detroit Lions are for real. They go into Lambeau, they punch the Packers in the mouth. David Montgomery was absolutely unstoppable. They've gone to Arrowhead, they've gone to Lambeau, they won both games as road teams and they are looking great.

The Lions finished 12-5, won the NFC North, and reached the NFC Championship game.

It would take a Super Bowl win for people to start hating Lions fans

I don't think people will hate Lions fans unless they win a Super Bowl and then they would start to hate them. It's kind of like the Cubs or the Red Sox, where after they won theirs, people started to hate it. But the first one, I think people would all be about because it is a tortured fan base.

This is a subjective take on sports fan psychology.

Damian Lillard is past his prime

I think Damian Lillard's a little old, a little past his prime. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown are in their prime. Damian Lillard's washed up.

Lillard had a down year by his standards in 2023-24 but was still an All-Star and hit major playoff shots, though the Bucks were eliminated early.

Ty Simpson was a bad draft pick for the Rams

I still think it was a bad pick because I still think at some point the Rams are gonna look back and wish they had a player that could contribute now this season.

The value of the pick depends on Simpson's development vs the Rams' immediate success.

Jayden Daniels is being misrepresented by his mother and agent

The perception is that his team, quote unquote, his mother and the agent are kind of spearheading all this... whoever's spearheading this whole thing about the jersey needs to take ownership, take responsibility... he's being misrepresented by his personality. People are calling him selfish. He's not a selfish kid.

The effectiveness of his management team is a subjective PR evaluation.

Oregon isn't physical enough to win a national championship

The biggest issue with Dan Lanning is this: in the biggest games against teams that have equal talent, they aren't physical enough... he's brought everything from Georgia to Eugene except the level of physicality that is gonna be required.

Oregon's physicality will be tested in the 2026 CFP.
