Mike Vrabel will be the next head coach of the Patriots

I do think it was a smart decision [to fire Jerod Mayo]. I also think that they wouldn't have done it as quickly as they did if they didn't know that they are getting the coach that they want. Which I believe is Mike Vrabel... I am of the belief that the answer to that question is yes.

Mike Vrabel was hired as the head coach of the New England Patriots on January 12, 2025, exactly as Hank predicted.

The Steelers are stuck in a cycle of 'good-ish' seasons followed by first-round exits.

you're going to see the, the exact same Steelers season repeat itself over and over again in the future... You're good-ish and you're always gonna be good-ish. You're gonna play teams hard, but you're probably not gonna do anything in the playoffs.

The Steelers lost to the Chiefs 37-17 in the Wild Card round, continuing the exact pattern PFT described.

Tom Brady helping Mike Macdonald prepare for the Patriots would be a huge slap in the face to the New England region.

That would be egregious if that was true. I don't believe it is true. But if it were, that would be unforgivable. Not unforgivable. That would be a, a blemish, a big blemish. Big time. It'd be a slap in the face of the whole region.

Subjective opinion on how a hypothetical rumor would be perceived.

Jayson Tatum is playing cute by claiming he found out about the Jaylen Brown trade on social media.

I'm sure he knew that he was on the trading block and he didn't know specifically when he got traded and he found out just like everyone else... all Brad Stevens, Jaylen Brown, they talked about how, you know, he was gonna be on the trading block and they were gonna try and move him. So I'm sure Jayson Tatum was also aware of that. But in terms of, he's probably playing a little, a little cutesy there where like no one specifically told him, 'Hey, this is the trade.' He found out like everyone else. But I'm sure he was not surprised and fully aware what the plan was.

Subjective interpretation of Tatum's PR framing.
