Patrick Mahomes' unorthodox fundamentals will eventually fail him as his athleticism dips

The league is going to catch up to Patrick Mahomes throwing sidearm. 20 years from now, when his athleticism starts to dip, you can't rely on bending, contorting your body and running sideways and throwing sidearm passes. You just can't. So I have my doubts.

Mahomes has maintained this level of play and won multiple Super Bowls since this take, though PFT's timeline is 20 years.

The Vikings are just one win away from the playoffs

The Vikings are now one win away from the playoffs, and as my good friend Shaquille O'Neal famously once said, Can you step on digit? Vikings 27, Lions 9.

The Vikings lost to the Bears in Week 17 and missed the playoffs, so while the 'one win away' claim was technically true at the moment, they did not achieve it.

The Ravens are the NFL team of the weekend

Our team of the weekend has to be the Ravens. What they did on Saturday night, going to San Diego and beating Phil Rivers and a super hot Chargers team by playing 1940s offense is unbelievable. They do bully ball.

The Ravens finished the season 10-6 and won the AFC North, proving Big Cat's praise of their momentum at the time was well-founded.

I'm not selling my Chargers stock yet

I'm still hanging on to my Charger stock. It's going to turn around just like Bitcoin. I completely agree that was a nightmare matchup for the chargers.

The Chargers actually went on to beat the Ravens in the Wild Card round a few weeks later, proving PFT right that they would turn it around.

The Chiefs' window never closed

I don't think we ever actually closed the Chiefs' window. I think Mahomes was just in bed because he was injured, far away from the window.

The Chiefs' long-term contention status is ultimately subjective, though their dynasty remained active at the time of the episode.

Mahomes will be back to himself by season's end

By the end of this season, Mahomes is gonna be back to being Mahomes.

Whether Mahomes returned to his established level by the end of the 2026 NFL season had not yet been resolved.

The Oregon loss could turn Dan Lanning into a psychopath

I don't think that Dan Lanning has slept since that loss. I think Dan Lanning has turned into an absolute psycho because of this loss. He's sick. It actually might be a dangerous thing for the rest of the Big Ten that Oregon lost that game.

Whether the loss made Oregon more dangerous over the rest of the season is a future, testable team-performance claim.
