I'm officially a believer in Dan Campbell and the Lions

I'm a believer, I'm officially ready to say it, I'm a believer in what Dan Campbell is doing to Detroit... being able to turn around a franchise like that is way harder than I think a lot of people think that it is.

This was extremely prescient. The Lions became one of the best teams in the NFC over the next two seasons, winning the division in 2023.

Winning close games makes the Vikings more dangerous for the playoffs

I think it's actually good that the Vikings are winning all these like super close games and not blowing anybody out. I actually think like learning how to win in weird ways... All that high pressure practice that they're getting in during the regular season is gonna be very good for them in the playoffs.

The Vikings went on to lose their first playoff game at home to the Giants, who were 9-7-1, in exactly the kind of close game PFT said they were prepared for.

The Jets will trade Zach Wilson

I think they're gonna end up trading [Zach Wilson] because the way the teams united behind Mike White, I mean Garrett Wilson I think tweeted or said in post game, I'll go to work, I'll get to work something special about that boy talking about Mike White.

While Wilson was benched for 2023 for Aaron Rodgers, he wasn't actually traded until April 2024 to the Broncos. This take was eventually right in spirit but the Jets held him longer than expected.

Brian Daboll played too conservatively by punting in overtime

He really pus it out in overtime with the punt that he calls... It was fourth and three on the Washington 45 yard line minute 42 seconds remaining in overtime a tie game 20 to 20 and he decided to punt the ball away.

The game ended in a tie, which is a verifiable result of the decision to punt.

Duke would have won the National Championship by 50 points if they had reached the final.

I think if Duke plays in the championship game, they win by 50. Easily. That was a wasted opportunity.

This is a hyperbolic counterfactual that cannot be proven, making it subjective.

Michigan is already the favorite to win the National Championship again next season.

Michigan I think is right now the favorites to win next season. Tough to win back to back, but he has to hit the portal. He has to be active... which he already is.

This is a prediction for the next college basketball season.

College basketball is now 'pay to win' and that's unsustainable

It's a pay to win tournament. Like basketball is ruined. Unsustainable. Yeah, that's the new word that I keep hearing.

Subjective opinion about the direction of college sports governance.
