We need to stop making fun of Jon Gruden because he is actually a very good head coach.

John Gruden, it's time for us to forget about all the fun that we've made of John Gruden because he's actually like a very good head coach. I don't know [if he's worth 10 years, $100 million], but was John Gruden in his bag tonight? Yeah... He coached as good a game against the Chiefs as I think you can do pretty much.

The Raiders finished 8-8 and missed the playoffs in 2020, and Gruden resigned midway through the following season. His tenure is generally viewed as a failure relative to the contract.

Derek Carr has officially improved and we need to stop thinking of him as mediocre.

There is definitely like an old Derek Carr thing that we have in our brain that we have to move past and be like, he's actually just good.

Carr had a strong statistical season in 2020 (4,103 yards, 27 TDs, 9 INTs), largely validating the 'good' label.

The Raiders are the team the Chiefs don't want to face in the playoffs and could make a run like the 2019 Titans.

The Raiders are, I would say, the team that the Chiefs don't want to face in the playoffs... they feel like a team that has enough going for them that they could make some—I'm putting them in my 'make some noise.' I could see the Raiders making a similar run [to the 2019 Titans] this year.

The Raiders finished 8-8 and missed the playoffs.

Kevin Stefanski should be on the short list for NFL Coach of the Year.

Kevin Stefanski, I think, is on the short list for Coach of the Year. It's probably going to be Mike Tomlin to lose. But you should at least mention him because the Browns are sitting here with their best record, I think, since 2007 or something.

Kevin Stefanski went on to win the 2020 NFL Coach of the Year award.

The Knicks will probably win the series in five games or even sweep the Cavs

I still think that the, the Knicks are probably gonna win in five. They could even pull off the sweep. I guess the only real question we have for you, 'cause we already, we declared that the New York Knicks have won the series after game one. Correct.

The series is currently ongoing with the Knicks leading 2-0.

The NBA should rebrand the 'granny shot' as the 'pimp grip' to encourage players to use it

Nobody, no player in the NBA wants to shoot a free throw granny style. But if it's pimp grip, that sounds pretty fucking cool. Listen, if it goes in, it doesn't matter. Like if he and he would, he actually probably get some endorsements from it.

This is a comedic suggestion and not a verifiable fact claim.

I want the Thunder to win so we can love Victor Wembanyama longer before the inevitable hate cycle starts

I know who I want to win. I want the Thunder to win this series. And the reason why I want the thunder to win this series is because I think if the thunder win, we get to restart the clock on how much longer we get to love Weby before we hate 'em. If the Spurs win this series and then they win their first championship and Weby dominates, we're gonna eventually hate Weby.

The outcome of the series is pending, and the 'hate cycle' is a subjective sociological prediction.
