The Vikings are just one win away from the playoffs

The Vikings are now one win away from the playoffs, and as my good friend Shaquille O'Neal famously once said, Can you step on digit? Vikings 27, Lions 9.

The Vikings lost to the Bears in Week 17 and missed the playoffs, so while the 'one win away' claim was technically true at the moment, they did not achieve it.

The Ravens are the NFL team of the weekend

Our team of the weekend has to be the Ravens. What they did on Saturday night, going to San Diego and beating Phil Rivers and a super hot Chargers team by playing 1940s offense is unbelievable. They do bully ball.

The Ravens finished the season 10-6 and won the AFC North, proving Big Cat's praise of their momentum at the time was well-founded.

I'm not selling my Chargers stock yet

I'm still hanging on to my Charger stock. It's going to turn around just like Bitcoin. I completely agree that was a nightmare matchup for the chargers.

The Chargers actually went on to beat the Ravens in the Wild Card round a few weeks later, proving PFT right that they would turn it around.

While the division was often weak, 'history of all sports' is a subjective and hyperbolic claim typical of PMT.

The Rays are playing an exciting brand of baseball

It's a very, very exciting brand of baseball. And I'm gonna miss it when it's over. So I did not wanna sweep, so thank you.

This is a subjective assessment of style and cannot be definitively judged.

The Cowboys are a bad football team

The Cowboys are a bad football team. And I can't wait for people to start to say like, this is when, look at the schedule. Dallas is gonna put some wins together.

The quality of a team is partly evaluative, though the season's playoff result could test the narrower claim that Dallas is not a serious championship threat.

Performance-enhancing drug shortages may explain dominant teams falling off

There started to be severe, severe supply chain issues when it came to performance enhancing drugs and peptide shipments coming to the United States. I just think it's interesting.

This speculative causal theory is not established by the transcript or otherwise verifiable from the available context.
