Sean McDermott is under more pressure than any other individual in the NFL playoffs

My one-one is Sean McDermott... because Josh Allen has been an alien this year... the playoff losses, you can look at all of them and say, that's not really on Josh... So who gets the blame for those losses? Sean McDermott. I think deservedly.

This is a subjective assessment of 'pressure.'

Mike Tomlin is under immense pressure because he hasn't won a playoff game since 2016

I think Mike Tomlin has a ton of pressure because Mike Tomlin, he hasn't won a playoff game since 2016... his last 14 years in Pittsburgh, he's three and eight... this is just another year where it's like, hey, you have not won a playoff game then we're gonna be going on almost a decade of you not winning a playoff game.

The Steelers lost to the Ravens in the 2025 Wild Card round, extending his streak of no playoff wins.

Sam Darnold's playoff performance will result in a $100 million difference in his next contract

Sam Darnold was gonna be my next pick. Yeah. Because the, the difference in how much money he's going to make next year based on how he performs in the playoffs is there's probably a hundred million dollar difference. If he stinks, he could get franchise tagged... if he plays really, really well in the Playoffs now we're talking about like $150 million. Yes. 175, 200 million.

Free agency results for 2025 are not yet determined.

Lamar Jackson is under more pressure than Josh Allen this postseason

I do think Lamar is under more pressure than Josh Allen... Josh Allen has not been the reason why the bills have lost in the playoffs... Lamar Jackson's two and four in the playoffs... four out of six of the games, he has not gone over 200 yards... Josh's elevated his game in the playoffs. Lamar has not.

Subjective comparison of pressure. However, Lamar Jackson defeated the Steelers in the 2025 Wild Card round, which alleviated some immediate pressure.

The Bears broke the Packers in their recent matchup

The other two pressure teams I had, one was the Packers. That was simply because like there's word out that maybe the bears broke the Packers... I hope that's not the case. 'cause I want to have, I, I don't want to just be one of those teams that just beats their rival all the time.

The Packers lost their subsequent playoff game to the Eagles, potentially supporting the 'broken' narrative for the end of the 2024 season.
