Carson Wentz will look like a deflated Ben Roethlisberger in two years

Carson Wentz strikes me as the kind of guy that's going to get fat later, though... Two years from now, Carson Wentz is going to look like a slightly deflated and less aggressive Ben Roethlisberger.

While Wentz's play declined significantly, he did not particularly 'get fat' or look like Ben Roethlisberger by 2018.

Mike McCarthy cycles play-calling duties annually just to avoid being held accountable for failure

Every year I feel like Mike McCarthy either gives up play calling or gets play calling back. If you move the play calling stick around, then nobody's really at fault.

McCarthy did frequently toggle play-calling duties in Green Bay during his tenure.

Switching to 1% milk after a heart attack is the ultimate football guy move

Switching to 1% milk after a heart attack... That is the most football guy move of all time because there are like a million other things. I agree with Urban Meyer. Don't spend more time with your family. Don't maybe knock out fast food, but take it down from 2% to 1%.

The take is a satirical observation about Urban Meyer's lifestyle choices after his health scare.

Bill Belichick isn't being abrasive; he's just taking media questions at face value

A lot of people think that Bill Belichick is trolling the media and being abrasive on purpose. He's just answering these questions. He is taking everything at face value. You ask him a question about medical stuff. He is not a doctor. He is a football coach. That is his job. The doctors are doctors. He is the football coach.

Belichick's internal motivations are subjective, though his literalism is a well-documented trait.

The Chiefs' window never closed

I don't think we ever actually closed the Chiefs' window. I think Mahomes was just in bed because he was injured, far away from the window.

The Chiefs' long-term contention status is ultimately subjective, though their dynasty remained active at the time of the episode.

The Oregon loss could turn Dan Lanning into a psychopath

I don't think that Dan Lanning has slept since that loss. I think Dan Lanning has turned into an absolute psycho because of this loss. He's sick. It actually might be a dangerous thing for the rest of the Big Ten that Oregon lost that game.

Whether the loss made Oregon more dangerous over the rest of the season is a future, testable team-performance claim.
