Tom Brady is the GOAT of retirements

It's back-to-back retirements, two consecutive retirements for Tom Brady. He's the GOAT at that too. Not a dynasty, but a nice little run.

Brady did eventually stay retired after this, making it exactly two consecutive retirements before his transition to broadcasting.

There is a 25% chance Tom Brady comes back from retirement

I listen, Tom Brady. Thanks. It does feel like he's officially retired this time. Would we say, you said 25% chance he comes back. I still think he can come back.

Tom Brady did not return to play in the NFL after this retirement video.

No one will ever win seven Super Bowls again

He is the greatest quarterback of all time. I know that there's now debates going around... Tom Brady was seven and three. I don't think anyone will ever win seven Super Bowls again.

The highest active player is Patrick Mahomes with 3. Matching 7 is nearly impossible in the modern era.

Greg Olsen might fend off Tom Brady for the top Fox broadcasting job

I also think that there's a decent chance that Greg Olsen fends Tom Brady off somehow because he's that good and he's a proven commodity now. And you can still, you can think, yeah, it's Tom Brady and he'll probably approach it with the same dedication he approached football with... but I think that there's a chance that they work something out behind the scenes because they like Greg Olsen.

Tom Brady did eventually take over the #1 booth at Fox for the 2024 season, displacing Olsen.

The Ravens' fourth-quarter problems are moving earlier

Historically, the fourth-quarter Ravens have not been a great team. That fourth-quarter Ravens has started to creep its way into the third-quarter Ravens. And I think eventually it's going to keep creeping earlier and earlier in the game. I don't think it's going to get better because the defense does not look good.

This is a season-long assessment that can only be judged against Baltimore's eventual 2026 performance.

Baker Mayfield has a real revenge game against Cleveland

This is like a big Baker revenge spot too. This is not a made-up Baker—I have a perceived slight against me because some team didn't trade for me when I was on the market. This is Baker Mayfield against Stefanski, and they haven't talked since he left Cleveland.

Whether the personal history materially affects the game is subjective, though the stated public grievance is part of the episode's context.

The NFL should reduce the season to 16 games

I'm going to say it. I think that 17 games is too much. I like the scarcity. I like if you brought it back to 16, because the NFL's also been playing this game for a long time where they have to find safer-looking ways to do a dangerous activity.

The preferred NFL schedule is a policy judgment, though the player-safety rationale is grounded in the discussion's cited study.
