The Bears are now the class of the NFC

I think that we should [talk about the Bears] because they are now the class of the NFC. I'll just say it. Sean McVay can name every single player that picked him off tonight.

The Bears finished 12-4 but lost in the Wild Card round (Double Doink). The Saints and Rams were generally considered superior as they reached the NFC Championship.

Defense still wins games when the weather gets cold

I'm just going to say it, boys. Once the weather starts getting cold, defense does show up... I think defense still wins games.

A classic football debate. While defense is crucial, the 2018 season was still defined by offensive innovation, though the Super Bowl ended up being a 13-3 defensive struggle.

The Bears offense is a major worry for January

I will be honest—I have worries about the offense at times. That's all I'll say... Mitch [Trubisky] was coming back from an injury. I don't know if he's 100% healthy. The offense did not click the way that they'll need to click in January.

The Bears lost their first playoff game 16-15, with the offense scoring only one touchdown.

The NFL will overreact to this defensive week by trying to hire the next Aaron Donald or Khalil Mack

What's going to be so funny, by the way, is going to be the NFL overreacting to one week of really good defensive play... and now they'll be like, you need to go out there and get a defense like that. As opposed to the first 12 weeks when it's like, you've got to get the next Sean McVay... now it's going to be, well, you can just go get Aaron Donald or Khalil Mack. It'll be good.

The NFL is famously a copycat league, though the 'offensive guru' trend continued for years regardless of this specific week.

Duke would have won the National Championship by 50 points if they had reached the final.

I think if Duke plays in the championship game, they win by 50. Easily. That was a wasted opportunity.

This is a hyperbolic counterfactual that cannot be proven, making it subjective.

Michigan is already the favorite to win the National Championship again next season.

Michigan I think is right now the favorites to win next season. Tough to win back to back, but he has to hit the portal. He has to be active... which he already is.

This is a prediction for the next college basketball season.

College basketball is now 'pay to win' and that's unsustainable

It's a pay to win tournament. Like basketball is ruined. Unsustainable. Yeah, that's the new word that I keep hearing.

Subjective opinion about the direction of college sports governance.
