I am officially all in on the San Francisco 49ers

I would like to officially announce I'm all in on the Niners now. I Trent Williams, chase Young Kyle Shanahan. I said this on, on Monday's show. But if you're a fan of a shitty franchise, the best you can do sometimes is to just root for your guys to win somewhere. So I'm, I'm gonna put a big future on the Niners. They're my team.

The Niners made the Super Bowl but lost, so while they were a good bet, they didn't win the title PFT implies with 'big future'.

The Bears would never trade a second-round pick for Montez Sweat without a long-term deal in place

I assume every trade like this, you assume that there is a deal in place to resign Montez Sweat. So everyone's like, why would you trade a second round pick for a guy who's gonna be a free agent? Obviously if he becomes a free agent, this is the dumbest deal ever. I am assuming that Ryan Polls has already worked it out with his agent and there's a plan in place to sign him long-term.

Montez Sweat signed a four-year, $98 million extension with the Bears on November 4, 2023, just days after the trade.

Josh McDaniels is a misunderstood genius whose offense only works with Hall of Fame players

I think maybe we're all wrong about Josh McDaniels. Maybe he is an offensive genius, but maybe there's just no players that are good enough to play football at the level that Josh McDaniels expects... his offense only works if it's Tom Brady and Randy Moss running it. And if it's anybody else, then it just looks like the biggest nightmare you've ever seen.

McDaniels was fired on October 31, 2023 (released early Nov 1), proving his 'genius' was a failure.

James Harden is the GOAT of being a bad teammate and employee.

James Harden... he's got GOAT tendencies because he somehow has gotten traded now three times where everyone's like, he's got no leverage... he deserves at least respect for being how bad of like a teammate and employee is. Like he's the GOAT at that.

This is a subjective evaluation of a player's reputation and career conduct.

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.
