Recap
PFT CommenterThe Matthew Stafford and Tom Brady ski trip was definitely not a coincidence
Jordan Schultz had [the report] that Matt Stafford and Tom Brady went on a nice little cozy ski vacation together... Ian Rapoport came over the top and said I'm told that this was just a coincidence... Can you imagine the coincidence level though of like, you and I happen to run into each other on vacation? I'm just not buying it.
Big CatIf Tom Brady explicitly invited Matthew Stafford to his vacation, it is tampering
I think if you can prove that Tom Brady was like, 'Hey, I'm gonna be at Yellowstone Club, come out for the weekend,' then that's tampering. Otherwise, it's gonna be hard to prove.
Big CatNFL owners are cheap if they have bad locker rooms or bad food
I don't understand how anyone owns a team and gets anything worse than like a B on any of these things. If I had that much money and I owned a team, I'd be tricking out everything... I can't conceptualize an owner of a football team being like, 'Our players don't get to eat on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.'
Big CatPat Riley is a bad guy for taking LeBron James's cookies on the team plane
LeBron stops playing cards when he finds out his cookies were taken... I would rather someone come and pat me on the head like patronizing words to take someone to take another man's cookies. You're basically saying they're a 4-year-old that didn't eat their vegetables... Pat Riley, bad guy. Real bad guy.
Big CatFouling when up three points at the end of a game should be banned
I think we should ban fouling up three. I don't know how they could do it... I like the idea of maybe if you foul up three, they get three shots. There's nothing worse than in a game where a team is up three and it just becomes a foul fest.
MaxI'm officially opting out of all Philadelphia 76ers news for the rest of the season
I don't care. I'm opting out of all Sixers news... I just wanna fast forward to the end of the season.
Interview
Adam SchefterThis phone in my hand is the one I used to tweet that Miles Garrett committed assault
I really believe that this is the assault phone. It would be my honor to give you this phone... You can hang it on the wall.
Adam SchefterMiles Garrett will cost at least two first-round picks if the Browns trade him
If you go back and look at what the Bears gave up for Khalil Mack, it was two firsts. It was a third, a fifth... To me that's the most fair comp there is out there right now.
Adam SchefterBrock Purdy's next contract might not reach Dak Prescott's numbers
Is it gonna be the Dak Prescott contract? It's not, I don't expect it to be. Is it gonna be a fair contract? I would think it would be. They have to pay him... But if Brock Purdy doesn't like that deal, I don't know how far the Niners can go. And then the Niners can just say, okay, guess what? We have your rights this year for 5 million. We could franchise tag you next year.
Adam SchefterThe NFL will eventually sell a 12 to 16-game international broadcast package
They get to an 18 game schedule and then the league can take a 12, 14, 16 game international package and sell that... I think that's where it's gonna go.
Adam SchefterMatthew Stafford's next team will be either the Giants, Rams, or Raiders
I really don't know right now because it's kind of a coin flip kind of thing... [The Giants, Rams, and Raiders] those are the three scenarios that make sense.
Adam SchefterAaron Rodgers will definitely play in 2025 with a chip on his shoulder
I think he's gonna play, he's gonna play and I think he has something to prove in his own mind and think there's gonna be a chip on his shoulder.
Adam SchefterThe Browns will draft a quarterback with their first pick in the 2025 Draft
To me, they have to draft a quarterback with their first pick... I predict it'll be a quarterback period. I think they have to do a quarterback. They're that high, they're that financially strapped with Deshaun Watson, there's that much of a need.
Adam SchefterI will be the governing owner of Jerry O'Connell's fantasy football team in name only
Governing owner in name only? That sounds fair to me... Blame me [if he is fired]. Everybody else does.
Adam SchefterDaniel Jones will be a starting quarterback in the NFL in September
Yes [he will be a starter]. In fact, I've actually had his name come up with head coaches I've spoken to... I think there's a market for him.
Adam SchefterThe 49ers will trade Deebo Samuel rather than releasing him
I think the 49ers are gonna be able to trade him... I know that I've seen it out there that the Niners would have to release him... I don't agree with that. I think they're gonna be able to trade him.
Adam SchefterThe Rams will hope to trade Cooper Kupp this offseason
I think the Rams are gonna hope to trade him... He's gonna have a new home. Yeah. He's gonna have suitors, he's gonna have interest. The question is what is the price gonna be?
Adam SchefterJaden Daniels is a special player who will cover up the Commanders' organizational flaws
Jaden Daniels... gets it big time. He gets it. Like that guy is on it... This quarterback covers up a lot of the sins of the organization. Not everybody's at his level... the quarterback is exceptional.
