Lets be Real who didn't have Sexton for the championship as soon as Jett and Eli were out?

I never count Webb out. If I had a gun to my head after Tampa and had to pick someone it would’ve been him. 

Had him after Tampa.

Webb isn’t my guy but damn, he gets it done when he needs to. I had Sexton as well. 

I knew Webb would be strong and get better as the season goes on specially with how he rode last year, only close guy to Jett aswell last year. Sexton always had races where he looked unbeatable over the last years but also had so many weird mistakes in the first half of the season, his second half of the season was phenomenal, that's for sure, but he was never my pick for the championship.

But..

I somehow really thought Kenny had it in him this season, we haven't seen this type of consistency from him since 2021, he has been top 3 speed every race in the first half of the season and went 2-4-2-3-DNF-2-1, and even with a DNF he still was only 16 points out after Daytona. Then things went downhill from there specially with his injuries.

Actually so sad that we lost Jett and Tomac so early man. Jett had a really weird first round, but the speed both of these guys showed from the 2nd round on.. They had like what, 20 seconds on third place? Probably the most ridiculous 450 battle we have seen this year and we got robbed.. again!

I had him no doubt until that bizarre last lap in Foxborough.  

After Jett got hurt I thought Webb would win it, even against Tomac.  He's just so hard to beat over 17 rounds.

Epic! Lol

Saw the signs even before they were out... Webb has blueprints for SX titles.

yep was chase's title to lose and he lost it!

Webb rode great, but Chase simply choked too many times. Definitely his own worst enemy.

No, I figured it was only a matter of time until he was out too.

If I recall correctly, the talk was if Chase's inevitable championship should have an asterisk after it. I will admit to being one of the one's saying Chase only wins titles when the favorite goes out. 

After Paris I had coop as my pick. Look at his stats year by year hes always in it. I expected jett to be number 2 with some bad races. Listening to pulp Anton stated the same after Paris his pick was coop. After jett went out I was pretty much positive coop was going to win this I believe coop was too. Guys said they noticed how much different he seemed on race days. 

I had Sexton, just because we all know how much faster than Webb he is. But sure as RJ gonna RJ, Sexton gonna Sexton to and here we are…

As soon as Jett was hurt, I had Cooper Webb all the way.

One of the main reasons I don't visit tampa anymore. 

Copper was pretty fast this year. Underrated IMO.

 I had prado for the title just based on Jett's success. Nothing to do with riding. I just thought that the more metro you got the faster you were. Theory didnt pan out. Guess it just makes you fragile. Maybe big watches on little dudes mess up their balance when they take them off. Somebody should tell them to wear one on each wrist to maintain symmetry.  

Off topic, but if you buy a 5 figure watch do you still use your phone to check the time? 

Once Ando went out I was leaning Sexton, and when Roczen called it, I was even more in on Chase. Oh well, wasn't meant to be

Failing to see a reason in my post why you don’t visit Tampa anymore…

I'm guessing it's the "gun to the head" risk he's trying to avoid. 😄

I love how people still say Webb wasn't as fast as Chase...but straight up matched his speed when needed.    Webb beat both Tomac and Jett this year too.

Webb's own words from recent interview... 

Webb played the long game all season like a master chess player and using speed when he needed it. 

Webbs record from the last 7 years....against the best of the best.

How do his balls taste?

Me too

I'm guilty of underestimating Webb for sure. I figured Sexton would walk away with it.

It's funny. Many people said Chase would win if Jett was out...

Webb reminds me of Ricky in the way that he does what he has to do when he has to do it 

100%. Somebody once said that Webb is the last guy you want behind you the last 2-3 laps in a race.
