Every team in the AFC North is actually just very average

I think all the teams in the [AFC North] when they play their best games are very good, but they usually don't play their best. They're just very average teams. I think, man, this really makes me wish that the Steelers weren't on Thursday night.

The division was highly mediocre in 2021; the Bengals won it with just 10 wins, and no team finished with more than 10 wins.

Steve Kornacki's 'phantom scroll' is a blank prop with nothing written on it

I'm a Kornacki scroll truther. I don't think that he actually has anything written on that piece of paper. [It's] probably a prop.

This is a subjective humorous claim about a TV production element.

The Ravens are the most injured team of 2021

With Marlon Humphrey getting hurt last week and Lamar Jackson getting hurt this week... You officially are the champions of most injured team of 2021. Like I said, you probably already had that crown, but this was like, this was the final piece of having Lamar Jackson getting hurt.

The Ravens were indeed historically injured in 2021, leading the NFL in Adjusted Games Lost due to injury by a significant margin.

Teams down nine points should go for two early to gain strategic clarity

Harbaugh gave us a new little wrinkle to think about... if you're down nine, you go for two, because you're going to have to go for two anyways, to win. You're going to want to know exactly when you need to get that two points.

This is a common modern analytical takeaway that many coaches have started to adopt to manage late-game clock and possessions.

The Brewers are what baseball fans say they want

The Brewers are everything that I think most people say that they want in a baseball team now. The knock against the direction baseball's been going for the last 10 years is you strike out, you hit home runs. And that's the way that you do it with the Brewers.

This is an evaluative claim about the Brewers' style and what fans want, so it is inherently subjective.

The Broncos would have won with the quarterbacks reversed

If quarterbacks were reversed tonight, who wins? Broncos. I think Drew Lock on the Broncos would've won tonight.

This is a counterfactual opinion about a completed game and cannot be definitively verified.

The 24-team playoff is the ongoing Savannah-ification of sports

It's the ongoing Savannah-ification of sports in America. It's a sad day.

This is a broad cultural opinion about sports commercialization and cannot be objectively resolved.
