Dan Campbell might be the first interim head coach to win a Super Bowl

I personally think he might be the first interim head coach to win a Super Bowl.

PredictionnflFireSarcastic
Dan Campbell went 5-7 as Dolphins interim HC in 2015. He later became Lions HC in 2021 and made the NFC Championship in 2023, but never won a Super Bowl as an interim coach.

Joe Flacco is elite because he literally blew out the Superdome scoreboard

My subsequent investigation determined that the 21-point first-half beatdown that Baltimore hung all over the 49ers was the highest first-half point total in the Dome that year, up until that point. The scoreboard simply couldn't handle all the electricity needed to keep up with Flacco's lightning, quick-release and high-voltage offense. Quite simply, he blew the scoreboard out. That sounds pretty damn elite to me.

Fact ClaimnflHotSarcastic
The Super Bowl XLVII power outage was caused by a relay device, not by Flacco's offense being too electric. This is PFT's signature 'Is Joe Flacco Elite?' bit delivered as a Serial podcast parody.

John Fox's name literally translates to 'Fox Toilet'

John Fox's name, look it up in the dictionary, literally translates to Fox Toilet. And if I were him, I'd be more worried about plumbers than numbers.

Fact ClaimnflMediumSarcastic
John does not translate to 'toilet' in any standard sense, though 'john' is slang for toilet. Classic PFT deliberately wrong etymology.
