The AFC playoffs will go through New England because the Patriots are the most solidified team in the conference.

I've been in the belief... that the home field [in the AFC] was gonna go through New England. I, I firmly believe that because of the schedule and seeing them in person Monday night. ... New England is more solidified and I would lean towards them getting home field.

Stanford Steve predicted AFC home-field advantage would go through New England. The Denver Broncos earned the #1 seed in the AFC at 14-3, giving them home-field advantage. The Patriots were the #2 seed. The AFC Championship was played in Denver, not New England (Patriots won 10-7 on the road).

Detroit got their mojo back and looked like the efficient team they were earlier in the season

I feel like Detroit kind of got their mojo back a little bit and like, 'Hey, we're not going out without a fight.' Detroit didn't make those mistakes. Detroit didn't turn the ball over.

The Lions missed the 2025 playoffs entirely, eliminated in Week 17. Getting their mojo back was temporary.

I'm softening on the Cowboys and no longer get joy from Dak Prescott interceptions

You know how I know that I'm softening up on the Cowboys? I don't get the same joy that I used to get off Dak [Prescott] interceptions. Dak interceptions used to give me life. They used to make me so happy.

This is a subjective feeling about a sports rivalry.

LeBron James robbed fans of a hater moment by making the correct basketball play

I feel so robbed by it because [LeBron James] actually made a very selfless play. A game-winning assist for a buzzer beater. I was really hoping that the situation had occurred where he was trying to force it and he cost him the game. He robbed that from us.

The streak literally ended as described in the episode.

Arizona will beat Michigan in the Final Four

I favor Arizona. I believe Arizona can frustrate Michigan offensively... My favorite thing about Arizona is they don't care who scores. Whether it's Bradley or breweries... they're both really capable of a tidal wave.

Take the under in Arizona-Michigan — football stadium plus poor three-point shooting teams means a low-scoring game

Both teams get a lot of easy offense off their defense. Who has the bigger spurts in that? And they're not great three-point shooting teams, and now you're going into a football stadium. I think you gotta take the under.

Pending — outcome of Arizona-Michigan Final Four game and whether it went under is beyond knowledge cutoff.
