If Big Ben Roethlisberger is benched for rest in Week 17, he won't be mentally ready for the playoffs

I do think that if they were to bench Ben Roethlisberger and some of their other starters later on in the season, like week 17, I don't think that Big Ben comes back ready for the [playoffs]. I think he will believe that he is benched because he's injured in that one week off. And then that's going to mess with him mentally.

Roethlisberger did rest in Week 17 and then threw 4 interceptions in a Wild Card loss to the Browns, arguably proving the 'not ready' part of the take.

The Steelers are the worst 11-0 team of all time

Yeah, I think it's fair to say the Steelers are the worst 11-0 team of all time.

While subjective, the 2020 Steelers are frequently cited as the worst 11-0 team ever given their late-season collapse and first-round playoff exit.

The Steelers should try to lose to the Washington Football Team to reset their season for a 'revenge tour'

I actually think that they should try to lose a game just so that everyone can be down on them and then they can come back and be like, fuck you, revenge tour in the playoffs. They should probably lose this game against the Washington football team.

The Steelers did lose to Washington, but they did not have a 'revenge tour'; they collapsed, losing 4 of their last 5 and getting bounced in the first round.

The Saints are currently the best team playing in the NFL

But if you're talking about who's playing the best right this second, it would probably be Saints. It's without a doubt the Saints.

The Saints were on a 9-game winning streak at this point. They finished the season strong but lost in the Divisional Round.

The Rams' Australia travel plan was an all-time 'fuck it' move

It was a terrible idea that Sean McVay tried to do, but I have to respect how much of an all-time fuck-it move it was to just pretend that time zones don't exist. He was just like, you know what, fuck it, we're not gonna adapt. We're gonna fly in, fly out.

The Rams lost the Australia opener after using the fly-in/fly-out approach, supporting the criticism in this game-specific judgment.

KOC will get the best out of Kyler Murray

I think that what he's gonna get the absolute best outta Kyler Murray that he possibly can at this point, which I think should be good enough to be a pretty good team this year.

Kyler Murray's 2026 season and Minnesota's performance will determine whether this forecast holds.

Jayden Daniels is going to remind everyone that the bad man is back

I think Jayden Daniels, he's as healthy as he has been since the start of last season. ... I think that he's gonna remind a lot of people who he is. Yeah. That's what I think. I think the bad man might be back.

Daniels' 2026 season will determine whether he re-established himself as an elite or feared quarterback.
