The Patriots vs. Bills game will be a shootout

I'm excited. I'm really excited. I think this game is gonna be a shootout. I think it's gonna, you know, Patriots are gonna have to get a little bit lucky, but it's gonna be a good test... One score. Yeah... I love the Patriots team total over, I love the regular over.

The final score was 27-24, which is a one-score game, but not necessarily a 'shootout' by modern NFL standards (Over/Under was 49.5, total was 51).

Drake Maye will beat a winning team for the first time this week (Okie Doke)

I think this is the week that that Drake Maye finally beats a team that's above .500. I think he's done a great job getting to this place... he's put in the prep. This is the week where Drake Maye beats a winning team.

The Patriots lost to the Bills 24-21, and the joke was that the Bills were the first team with a winning record they faced.

The 49ers would have a Super Bowl by now if they had drafted Mac Jones instead of Trey Lance

If the 49ers draft Mac Jones like was rumored instead of Trey Lance, so many things are different. The 49ers probably win a Super Bowl. Mac Jones is one of the highest paid QBs in football. And we never find out just how good Brock Purdy is.

This is an unprovable hypothetical, though Mac Jones did find success later in his career with the 49ers in this specific timeline.

Mac Jones should stay sidelined with his injury to maximize his free-agent value as a backup

[Mac Jones] should really lean in to the leg injury. Yes. And be like, 'I'm too sore. Please sit me out.' I'm due to make millions of dollars on the open market. At the very least as a, as a great backup.

Subjective career strategy advice.

Roman Anthony is a defensive liability for the Red Sox because everyone is successfully running on him in left field.

Roman Anthony, world baseball classic hero. But he has been, he's become a meme basically. If he can't, he just can't throw anyone out from left field. Everyone's just running on Roman. Shane tried to tell me he was great last year, but he was playing right field. Now he's playing left field... it's just not good.

Whether a player is a 'liability' is subjective, though defensive stats can provide some evidence over time.

AJ Brown will be traded to the New England Patriots

[AJ Brown is] gone no matter what... New England. [In my] unbiased mind, he's still gone.

AJ Brown was not traded to the Patriots in the immediate aftermath of these rumors.

UConn can't win the championship

I hope UConn can get it done. I don't think they can win it all.

UConn was in the 2026 Final Four. Resolution depends on whether UConn won the championship.
