The Seahawks won the Russell Wilson trade because they got Geno Smith

I think it's time to ask the question, Big Cat: who won the Russell Wilson [for] Drew Lock trade? I mean, without Drew Lock, there would be no Geno Smith. Running back right now, cooking. Geno is literally writing back to everybody this week. He's doing a Rich Bisaccia and handwriting letters to everybody that hated on him.

In hindsight, this became a very common and largely correct sentiment as the Seahawks made the playoffs and the Broncos cratered.

The Bills aren't built to win in Florida or win close games

I think the Bills just can't play in Florida because they had the Jacksonville game last year, they had the Tampa Bay game last year and they have this one. They're not built for the sunshine state. They're also not built to win close games right at all. They've got 20 straight wins by double digit scores and they have zero wins in their last six one-score games.

The Bills' struggles in close games continued through 2022, notably losing to the Bengals in the playoffs, and they remained 0-7 in one-score games until later in the season.

The Dolphins are for real because they won a tough defensive game

I walked away from this being like, yeah, the dolphins are for real, for real. Because remember we talked about Mike McDaniel when he has to face adversity, when he has to win the tough games, this was a tough fucking game. They had the ball for 20 minutes. The bills had the ball for 40. Like they had to dig deep and their defense had to make big fucking plays and they were able to do it.

The 2022 Dolphins did make the playoffs, validating the 'for real' claim, though they lost in the Wild Card round.

The Dolphins will be 11-0 in December

I think there's a chance that after this game they might be favored in every game until December... that's when they go to Buffalo... so we might have 11 and oh. That's call my shot. 11 and oh in December.

The Dolphins did not go 11-0. They lost their very next game to the Bengals on Thursday Night Football and finished the season 9-8.

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.
