Offenses will eventually adapt to the two-high safety look that is currently limiting NFL scoring

I feel like there are ways around that too. I feel like offenses can adapt to it. Offenses that are doing a lot of motion like the Saints, the 49ers, some of these offenses that are trying to confuse the defense are still very effective.

Offensive production did fluctuate but the league-wide adaptation to 'shell' defenses remained a season-long narrative with varying success.

The Patriots' offensive line is currently worse than the Bears'

[The Patriots] looked horrible. Their offensive line like looked worse than the Bears. [Jacoby Brissett] never had more than one second to throw. They missed a ton of tackles on defense.

While both units were bottom-tier, the Patriots' line was statistically among the worst in terms of pressure rate allowed throughout the 2024 season.

Shohei Ohtani is the best baseball player of all time

I'd say that this, he is the best baseball player of all time. Whether or not he'll have the best career of all time is kind of up for grabs. But we've never seen anybody that's doing what he's doing.

This is inherently subjective, though Ohtani's 2024 season and dual-threat history make him a consensus top-tier candidate for the 'best ever' title.

NFL offenses are struggling because they are taking the bait on two-high safety looks

Everyone's blaming the two high safeties. And I actually read an article... essentially deep passes still work, but offenses are taking the bait with the two high safeties and just they're running the ball into light boxes and it's just not, it's not as effective... stop taking the bait.

The 'two-high' shell was a dominant talking point in 2024. Offensive production did eventually tick up as teams adapted, though passing yards remained historically low for much of the year.

Garrett Bolles should catch a pass before he retires

I want to be able to bet on Garrett Bolles to have one reception in every game. Because I feel like Sean Payton is going to try to get him that touch. He definitely will because he doesn't want him to retire as the guy who never touched the ball.

It requires Garrett Bolles to record a touch before the end of his career; that has not been resolved here.

The Eagles' offense might be better without A.J. Brown

I actually think that the offense might be better without A.J. Brown.

Whether Philadelphia's offense performs better without A.J. Brown is a season-level comparative claim and is not reliably resolved here.

The Chargers should eliminate their kicking game and go for it every time

The Chargers should just not have a punter. They should not have a kicker. They shouldn't even have like a long snapper on the team. Use those positions on somebody else and you're just—burn the boats. You're just going for it all the time. Fuck it. Who cares? Right? Season's over. Might as well try to score some points.

This is a deliberately satirical roster-building proposal, not a prediction that can be objectively graded.
