Derrick Henry is on pace for 2,000 rushing yards

I'm officially putting a 2K watch on Derrick Henry right now. He's got 1,532 rushing yards. He's got three games left. He plays the Lions. The Packers... then the Texans... three games, he could get it.

Derrick Henry finished the 2020 season with 2,027 rushing yards.

The Steelers are a fraudulent 11-2 team

The Pittsburgh Steelers are the worst 11 and 2 team of all time... Frauds was the word I was going to use. That's a team that you do not feel good about when it comes to December football going into January.

The Steelers finished the season 1-4 including this game and lost in the Wild Card round at home to Cleveland.

The Buffalo Bills are the only team that can beat the Chiefs

The Bills, I feel like, are the team that can beat the Chiefs. They're not going to, but I feel like they're the one team. If everything goes right, they're the team that could be the team. They need Josh Allen to play his perfect game. They need their defense to play their perfect game.

The Bills and Chiefs did meet in the AFC Championship game that season, and the Chiefs won 38-24.

Dan Bailey is likely out of a job after missing four kicks

Dan Bailey, you probably don't have a job... Mike Zimmer's quote was, at this point, we're not really worried about feelings anymore. There you go. So I'd say, Dan Bailey, you probably don't have a job.

Bailey was not fired immediately; he played out the rest of the season for Minnesota.

The Ravens' fourth-quarter problems are moving earlier

Historically, the fourth-quarter Ravens have not been a great team. That fourth-quarter Ravens has started to creep its way into the third-quarter Ravens. And I think eventually it's going to keep creeping earlier and earlier in the game. I don't think it's going to get better because the defense does not look good.

This is a season-long assessment that can only be judged against Baltimore's eventual 2026 performance.

Baker Mayfield has a real revenge game against Cleveland

This is like a big Baker revenge spot too. This is not a made-up Baker—I have a perceived slight against me because some team didn't trade for me when I was on the market. This is Baker Mayfield against Stefanski, and they haven't talked since he left Cleveland.

Whether the personal history materially affects the game is subjective, though the stated public grievance is part of the episode's context.

The NFL should reduce the season to 16 games

I'm going to say it. I think that 17 games is too much. I like the scarcity. I like if you brought it back to 16, because the NFL's also been playing this game for a long time where they have to find safer-looking ways to do a dangerous activity.

The preferred NFL schedule is a policy judgment, though the player-safety rationale is grounded in the discussion's cited study.
