The real blueprint to beat the Patriots is forcing Tom Brady to play wide receiver and making Rob Gronkowski play safety.

I'm going to tell you how to beat the Patriots right now... You got to make Tom Brady play wide receiver, and you got to make Rob Gronkowski play safety. If you can do those two things... those are PFT's [keys] to the game.

Clearly a joke based on specific past failures of those players.

The Chiefs don't get enough credit for being hilariously bad in the playoffs

The Chiefs don't get enough credit for being hilariously bad in the playoffs... 1-11 in their last 12 playoff games. That is so, so bad. And I actually feel bad for Kansas City fans because it's one of those stats that I didn't even believe when I saw.

The Chiefs had a notorious playoff losing streak prior to Patrick Mahomes' era; however, they won this specific game against the Colts to break the streak.

The Chiefs are actually 1-3 in their last six games if you exclude their wins against the Raiders.

The Chiefs are 1-3 in their last six games if you only count real teams, not the Raiders. Besides that [beating the Raiders twice], they're 1-3 in their last six. So I'm saying it doesn't look good.

If you look at the Chiefs' last six games prior to the divisional round (vs Rams, Raiders, Ravens, Chargers, Seahawks, Raiders), and remove the two Raiders wins, they were indeed 1-3.

Patrick Mahomes will likely lose his first career playoff game because first-time quarterbacks are 13-30 in the postseason since 2002.

First time quarterbacks straight up in the playoffs since 2002, 13 and 30. All three lost last weekend: Lamar Jackson, Mitch Trubisky and Deshaun Watson. So will Patrick Mahomes... I'm excited to watch him play, but it feels like, oh, my God. You can't just keep having heartbreak in Kansas City, can you?

Mahomes defied the trend, leading the Chiefs to a 31-13 victory over the Colts in his first playoff start.

The Brewers have the Dodgers beaten psychologically

I feel like Brewers kind of got 'em where they want him psychologically—two in a row, started the series off, and the Dodgers are panicking now.

This is an interpretation of the teams' mental state, so it is inherently subjective.

The Rams will win at least 11 games

If you're gonna look for a bet right now, take the Rams over 10 and a half wins. They're fine. I'll say they'll be seven and three at or six and four at worst—seven and three most likely—going into the Packers game on Thanksgiving.

The Rams' 2026 regular-season win total will not be resolved until the NFL regular season ends.

Shohei Ohtani's slump started when the Dodgers owner came under investigation

What is going on truly with Shohei? You look at when this cold streak started, and it was August 18th. The Los Angeles Lakers were sold on August 17th, and I believe news of the investigation kind of hit a peak shortly thereafter. I just think it's interesting timing.

There is no established causal link between the ownership investigation and Ohtani's performance; the claim is speculative.
