The Patriots will finish the season 18-1

18-1 is my official preseason prediction... I think they're going to lose a random regular season game, and that'll be it... They're not going to lose in the playoffs.

The Patriots finished 12-4 in the regular season and lost in the Wild Card round to the Titans.

I believe the Browns and Baker Mayfield will be fine despite their Week 1 loss

I actually do believe the Browns are going to be fine... As a Baker [Mayfield] guy, he's going to fix it. He's fine.

The 2019 Browns finished a disappointing 6-10 and Freddie Kitchens was fired after one season.

Whenever Mike Vrabel is underestimated, bet on him

I am now making a new rule. Whenever Mike Vrabel is underestimated, bet on him. I feel like this happens every single time the Titans, we're like, the Titans stink, their offense is boring, and Marcus Mariota isn't the guy. They did it last year when they played the Patriots.

Vrabel consistently outperformed expectations as an underdog throughout his Titans tenure, including a deep playoff run later this season (2019).

Lamar Jackson might just be a statue quarterback who carves teams up from the pocket

The concern at this point is can [Lamar Jackson] do enough with his legs? Is he fast enough? Is he a good enough running quarterback? Or is he just like one of those statue guys that goes back there and carves you up?

Lamar Jackson won the MVP in 2019, proving he could dominate both with his legs and his arm.

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.

The Celtics have another major move coming following the Jaylen Brown trade

There's something going on here. I I said it to Max on the boat yesterday. I was like, Jalen Brown was getting traded. I could, I could just feel it. I could feel it coming... I feel like the Paul George thing is, there's the, like, they might be doing another trade. There's another move coming.

The trade just happened in the fictional 2026 timeline provided; further moves are pending.
