The Detroit Lions should be three-point underdogs to every team in the NFL regardless of the opponent

I did have the Commanders as my underdog... I think the line is five points off. I think it's Commanders by three. Every team—again, this is my model that I've had the boys in the back crunching some numbers on—the Detroit Lions... I think that they should be three-point underdogs to every team in the NFL, regardless of team.

The Lions actually beat the Commanders 36-27 two days after this episode aired, proving they should not have been underdogs to 'every team'.

Justin Herbert is to blame for the pick-six because he should have known Gerald Everett was gassed

I'm gonna blame Justin Herbert for that pick-six and not [Gerald] Everett, because he should have known that Everett was tired and asking out of the game and he should have gone to somebody else. If Justin Herbert's the guy that he's supposed to be... then he needs to be able to make the decision to go somewhere else with that ball and not to your receiver who's puking all over himself.

The pick-six was the turning point of the game, and while Herbert threw the ball, Everett was clearly signaling to the sideline he was gassed, which is widely considered a coaching or personnel failure.

Brandon Staley has 'blue-pilled' himself into becoming a conservative coach

It's almost like Brandon Staley flew too close to the sun last year. And you know how in the Matrix you get red-pilled or you get blue-pilled? ...Brandon Staley blue-pilled himself and he's going back to being just like a normal conservative coach. Punting on fourth and short, fourth and third. I don't like that. I like Brandon Staley a little crazy.

Staley's 2022 season was indeed statistically less aggressive on fourth downs compared to his historic 2021 pace.

The 2007 college football season was the best season of all time

Sometimes you don't know that you're experiencing the season of a lifetime until like 20 years later and then you look back on it. [2007]... Holy shit, what a year. I'll just watch like a compilation of everything that happened in the 2007 college football season and just sit there for like 20 minutes being like, 'Oh yeah, I remember that. That was awesome.'

While 'best' is subjective, the 2007 season is widely regarded by college football historians as one of the most chaotic and memorable in the sport's history.

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.
