Doug Pederson beat the Patriots by taking the huge risks that the Jaguars refused to take
Doug Pederson did what the Jaguars refused to do in the AFC Championship game. He knew that to beat the Patriots, you have to take one or two huge risks, and that's the only way you can do it. And he did it with the fourth down call where Nick Foles caught the touchdown.

I want the Thunder to win so we can love Victor Wembanyama longer before the inevitable hate cycle starts
I know who I want to win. I want the Thunder to win this series.

If the Spurs win this series and then they win their first championship and Weby dominates, we're gonna eventually hate Weby.
