Patrick Mahomes won't be good for at least a month into next season following his ACL tear

Mahomes tore his ACL on December 14th... I think he'll play week one. I don't think he'll be good. I think he'll, he won't be good for a month.

Will be resolved by Mahomes' performance in the first four weeks of the 2026 NFL season.

I am betting on a one-two finish for Scotty Scheffler and Rory McIlroy at the PGA Championship

One two Scheffler McElroy and then one two McElroy [then] Scotty. I, that might be the move.

Neither golfer won; Xander Schauffele took the title. Scheffler finished T8 and Rory finished T12.

Nathanial Vakos will be the number one kicker in the nation next year

The kicker from Ohio [University] just committed to Wisconsin... Nathanial Vakos. I'm ranking him as the number one kicker in the nation going into the next year.

Vakos had a solid career at Wisconsin but wasn't universally ranked as the #1 kicker in the nation.

Odell Beckham Jr. will sign with the Seahawks

I think he's going to be a Seahawk, based on the way that DK answered those questions earlier when he was like, no, we're not claiming off waivers. That tells me that he knows that they're going to sign him as a free agent.

Odell Beckham Jr. signed with the Los Angeles Rams on November 11, 2021.

3D sports broadcasts will be forced back into the mainstream within the next two years.

I do predict that it's about that time for them to start forcing 3D down our throats again. It's like every three years, like 3D sports is coming back and it always sucks. It's never been good, but they're going to try because they feel like they can make money off it now. So I predict in the next, like two years, they'll start forcing that on us.

3D TV remained dead. While Apple Vision Pro eventually introduced 'Immersive Video', there was no widespread push to 3D sports in the 2021-2023 timeframe.

Snapchat will eventually be used to blackmail future politicians

I think Snapchat is going to have a huge blackmail on future politicians... You have a bunch of dumb 14-year-olds and teenagers and stuff, and then in the future they might be important people and there's a whole cloud of data... I think there will be a scandal that happens in the next 20 years where a Comcast or a major internet service provider just gets hacked or they release a bunch of documents and it's just everybody's search history and internet history.

This is a long-term prediction. While specific major hacks haven't unseated a president yet, digital footprints are increasingly part of political vetting.

I will be the first person in line to get the COVID-19 vaccine once it's available

I am going to inject myself when we get the vaccine. I'll be first to get that. I'll take what—acts will lead from the front on this one. Fill me up with whatever you need. Absolutely.

The first vaccines were administered to healthcare workers and high-risk individuals in December 2020. Big Cat was not the first.

Gardner Minshew is going to be a good quarterback

He wasn't elevating anybody else. He was just getting the ball out on time and things like that. I thought maybe he could do that in Jacksonville, rely on the defense... so I think Gardner's going to be okay. I like Gardner. I like his accuracy.

Minshew finished 2019 with 21 TDs and 6 INTs, becoming a fan favorite and proving he could play at the NFL level.

The Houston Texans will never win a Super Bowl

The Texans will never win a Super Bowl.

The Texans have not won a Super Bowl since this take was made. However, 'never' is a very long time, so it's currently pending.

I will get a tattoo of Blake Bortles' face if the Jaguars win the Super Bowl

I proclaimed tonight that if you win the Super Bowl, I will get a tattoo of your face somewhere on my body. Wrist, preferably.

The Jaguars did not win the Super Bowl during Bortles' tenure.

Rory McIlroy will not stay off Twitter for more than a week

He got in a fight on Twitter and he gave his Twitter password to his wife... That's going to last about a week. Rory's going to be Jones in to get those retweets back. He's going to have some tweets to fire off.

Rory McIlroy returned to Twitter and remained active in various capacities, though he did reduce personal engagement at times.
