Taylor Heinicke is a young Ryan Fitzpatrick

Taylor Heinicke is just a young Ryan Fitzpatrick because he's fucking psycho. He doesn't play by any of the rules... He loves throwing across his body. He loves throwing across the field. He loves almost getting sacked. It's crazy.

This is a subjective comparison of playstyles, though Heinicke did sustain a similar 'journeyman backup with high variance' career path.

The Patriots will round into form and flip a switch halfway through the season

I do think the Patriots are going to round into form. Now they have - clearly the Bills are the best team in the AFC East. But I do think the Patriots are going to be one of those teams where halfway through the season, everyone will be like, wait, this team, why are they getting points on the road? Why are people doubting them? Like they're going to flip a switch and everything's going to start kind of working a little bit.

The Patriots went on a 7-game winning streak from Week 7 to Week 13, effectively flipping the switch as predicted.

I am all the way back on Daniel Jones and I'm starting to think the Giants might be good

I'm all the way back on Danny Dimes... Something about that game was incredible... I now think the Giants might be good and it's a sickness of mine and it's obviously partly because I bet on them. I feel vindicated, but that was good Danny Dimes.

The Giants finished 4-13 and Daniel Jones was eventually injured, proving they were not 'good'.

Trevon Diggs should be in the MVP discussion and is the Defensive Player of the Year

I think that Trevon Diggs, if the season ended today, should get credit and consideration for MVP. Five interceptions in four games... He is the defensive player of the year right now, and he should be in the MVP discussion. At least he's really, really good.

Diggs finished with 11 interceptions and was 1st Team All-Pro, but TJ Watt won DPOTY. No defensive player received an MVP vote in 2021.

The Bills could have three or four Super Bowls without kickers

You can make the argument that the Buffalo Bills would have like three or four Super Bowls if kickers weren't a thing in football. You can make the argument that the Patriots might not have had the start of that dynasty if it wasn't for kickers.

The claim is a counterfactual and cannot be definitively verified.

Jalen Hurts will answer the Titans by beating them as a passer

I actually think Jalen Hurts is good enough as a quarterback that when somebody dares him to do that, he could say, 'Fuck you, I will beat you as a quarterback.' And then stay in the pocket and throw for like 300 yards and three touchdowns.

Hurts' passing production against Tennessee will determine this prediction.

The Jaguars would be the second-best team in football if they win in Denver

If they win this game in Denver, I would put them maybe second in the power rankings behind the Jets.

The Jaguars' win and their resulting standing in PFT's power rankings are the relevant conditions; the ranking itself is subjective.
