The first team to stop an early fourth down conversion will win the 49ers-Eagles game

There's gonna be a fourth down in the first half, a fourth and one... If they don't get it, they're gonna lose the game. Because fourth downs in the second quarter count exactly the same as fourth downs in the fourth quarter. Just file that one away.

The Eagles famously converted a 4th-and-3 on their opening drive (the DeVonta Smith 'catch'). The 49ers didn't really have a 'failed' early 4th down that flipped the game so much as the Purdy injury did.

Brock Purdy would erase Tom Brady's legacy if he wins seven Super Bowls

I'm rooting for Brock in the Niners because Brock has a chance to totally erase Tom Brady's narrative and legacy if he wins a Super Bowl... if he wins seven. If he wins seven, he would have a better... he would be like totally erased Tom Brady's underdog story cause it's even bigger underdog story.

Purdy is a great story but winning seven Super Bowls is an nearly impossible bar to clear.

The Eagles will beat the 49ers by three touchdowns

I'm betting on the Eagles. The Eagles are gonna win this game by three touchdowns. Rock Purdy is gonna have a Joe Flacco rookie quarterback stat line. Stop the run, score early, make 'em throw, win.

The Eagles won 31-7, exactly a 24-point (three touchdown + field goal) margin. Hank was shockingly accurate.

Kyle Shanahan is the first overall pick if NFL head coaches were redrafted

If every coach went into a big pool and you got to redraft coaches first overall pick. I think you take Kyle Shanahan... I'm not talking about in terms of the body of work... [but] right now.

This is subjective, but Shanahan remains widely considered a top-3 head coach in the NFL.

Getting excited for the NFL schedule release is for pussies

I can't get it up for the schedule release because it's—if you explained what the schedule release was to Vince Lombardi, he'd call you a pussy and spit in your face.

The schedule release is a highly watched media event, though many analysts share the sentiment that it is overblown.

The NFL should release one game schedule per day for the entire off-season

The NFL, they should do, they should draw it out even longer. It should be one game that Roger Goodell releases per day for the entire off-season. And then at the end of it, he's like, okay, let's play some ball.

This is a procedural suggestion that has not been implemented by the league.

The Preakness Stakes should move its date to three weeks before the Kentucky Derby

Why doesn't the Preakness just say, screw it to the Kentucky Derby and schedule their main race for like three weeks before the Kentucky Derby? You wanna play hardball? Yeah, you could play hardball. I feel like if you, if your horse wins the Preakness, if it was scheduled for before the Derby, you're not skipping the derby. No, you gotta run in the derby.

This is a hypothetical scheduling proposal to solve the issue of horses skipping the second jewel of the Triple Crown.
