Teams that start the season 3-1 make the playoffs 70% of the time

Teams that start the season 3-1 make it [to the playoffs] 70% of the time. Right. Teams that start at 2-0-1, I guarantee you will not make the playoffs this year. We can probably take that to the bank. Poor Detroit.

Historical data supports the 3-1 trend, and the 2019 Lions did indeed miss the playoffs, finishing 3-12-1.

The Green Bay Packers are dead

Today is Friday, September 27th, and the Green Bay Packers are dead.

The Packers were far from dead; they finished the 2019 season 13-3 and reached the NFC Championship Game.

Aaron Rodgers gets 'too cool' in the red zone

As Skip Bayless said, Aaron Rodgers gets too cool in the red zone.

This is a subjective stylistic critique of Rodgers' red zone efficiency.

I would rather have an aggressive coach like Doug Pederson than a wishy-washy one like Freddie Kitchens

I'd rather live with a coach who's aggressive and tries to steal the moment than a guy who goes wishy-washy, Freddie Kitchens. Do we call it the Freddie Kitchens or the Matt LaFleur when you just passed from inside the five-yard line?

This is a subjective evaluation of coaching styles, though Kitchens was fired after one season while Pederson had already won a Super Bowl.

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.
