The Detroit Lions are going to start a winning streak this weekend

I love this game. Moneyline Detroit... I like them winning last week. I was right. You want a winning streak... Broke his seal, monkeys off their back. They broke the seal.

The Lions lost to the Denver Broncos 38-10 the following Sunday, immediately ending any hope of a winning streak.

Ben Roethlisberger won the game against the Vikings even though the Steelers lost

That was vintage Big Ben in the second half to bring them back. He made the perfect throw to Pat Freiermuth. I say Big Ben won this game. He won this game.

The Steelers lost the game 36-28. Ben played well in the second half, but he literally lost the game.

Ben Roethlisberger has at least three more seasons left in him

I don't think that this Big Ben that we saw in the second half is even a year away from... Nope. That was fake news. Big Ben's got minimum three more seasons left.

Ben Roethlisberger retired from the NFL following the conclusion of the 2021 season, playing zero additional seasons after this take.

The Steelers officially have a major problem with their rush defense

A hundred plus rush yards allowed in the first half by a running back under Mike Tomlin. First 234 games as a head coach: zero. Last three games: two. Steelers might have a rush defense problem.

The 2021 Steelers finished the regular season ranked 32nd (last) in the NFL in rushing yards allowed per game and rushing yards allowed per attempt.

The Jets can't build a winning culture

You just can't. It's hard to build a winning culture ever. It doesn't matter what you're doing if you're the Jets.

This is a deliberately broad franchise judgment rather than a claim that can be definitively proven or disproven.

The WNBA badly mishandled its Finals scheduling

Instead of doing it in an arena where it's like a 5,000 capacity arena, they could have done it at the regular time. They chose to do 12:30 in the afternoon.

This is a judgment about scheduling strategy and is subjective.

There is real tension between Jalen Brown and the Celtics

I don't think it's Jason Tatum and Jalen Brown really have personal beef. I think it's just, you know, Jalen Brown, Celtics, and that's turning into Jason Tatum in some ways. But I think there's definitely beef between Jalen Brown and the Celtics organization.

The existence and extent of internal tension is not definitively verifiable from the transcript alone.
