Nathaniel Hackett may be a good offensive coordinator, but he is clearly not prepared to be an NFL head coach

Nathaniel Hackett might be an offensive guru... but you also have to be like, 'Wait, this is something that you're just not prepared for at all.' Just because you're a good offensive coordinator doesn't mean you know how to do all this stuff [like picking up blitzes and making adjustments].

Hackett was fired before completing his first season (the first such firing in Broncos history), which strongly validates the 'not prepared' take.

I enjoy watching the Broncos on primetime because the brand of bad football is a fascinating story every time

I actually, I'm gonna say this and I know this, people will be like, 'Oh, you're just saying this to be opposite,' I enjoy having the Broncos on primetime football because every time it's a story. It's bad football but you see something new every time and it's a weird story. It became so hilariously bad that it's interesting. There's something about a Broncos primetime game that it's fascinating to watch because it's just a car crash for 60 minutes plus.

Subjective opinion on entertainment value. The 2022 Broncos did remain a fascinatngly bad story for most of the season.

Russell Wilson is a mentally broken man

I think yes, there is [something wrong with Russell Wilson]. I think mentally he's a broken man.

While subjective, Wilson's tenure in Denver was statistically the worst of his career and he was eventually benched and released, supporting the idea of a major breakdown in his play.

Russell Wilson will eventually claim a season-ending injury to get a fresh start if this continues

It does feel like this is a situation where Russell Wilson could, if it keeps going bad, be like, I'm out for the year and just do a fresh start. And I actually wouldn't blame him because a fresh start is almost what this team needs.

Wilson played 15 games in 2022. He did not opt out for the year due to injury, though he was eventually benched late in the 2023 season for financial/contract reasons.

The 4-1 loss to Belgium was the worst USMNT performance in years

That was the worst performance from the US that I've seen in years. Just completely lackluster from the start. So much blame to go around. Tim Ream, friend of the program, good guy over the hill, turned into soccer Shawn Bradley before our very eyes got dunked on twice.

Subjective opinion on the quality of the performance.

Christian Pulisic was a 'no-show' and looked like he didn't care against Belgium

Christian Pulisic, the long anointed Captain America future face of this league for American soccer. Absolute no show of a game, I would say worse than a no show of a game. And then he checks himself out. Just looks lackluster, looks like he doesn't care at all. Had the most turnovers on the field of anybody. That played just really, really, really bad.

Subjective evaluation of Pulisic's effort and performance.

The US will never close the skill gap compared to the rest of the world in soccer

People will never close the skill gap. USA will never close the skill gap compared to the rest of the world in soccer.

Historically, the US has struggled to produce technical talent on par with Brazil or Europe.
