Interview
Mike LombardiDak Prescott is not the problem in Dallas, the scheme is
I don't think [Dak Prescott sucks]... I think their scheme is so bad. I think they do nothing to help them. I think if Sean McVay went and spent two weeks in Dallas, they'd probably score 30 points a week.
Mike LombardiThe 2018 Super Bowl will be Rams vs. Chiefs
I think it would be the Rams and the Chiefs, and probably the over would be at 70.
Mike LombardiThe Rams have already won the NFC West
I'm about ready to give the Rams the NFC West title right now.
Mike LombardiJosh Gordon will not have long-range success with the Patriots
I don't think [Josh Gordon] has long-range success written over it... because he's not passionate about football... If you're not willing to do the time and the effort into it, you're just going to get cast aside.
Mike LombardiDont'a Hightower can no longer play linebacker effectively
Hightower can't run like he used to run. And so he's really a defensive end. He can't play linebacker anymore.
Mike LombardiDerek Carr is not worth a $20 million salary
I'm not sure that [Derek] Carr's worth the $20 million when you watch him play.
Recap
PFT CommenterJosh Allen is a better running quarterback than Cam Newton
Josh Allen, better running quarterback than Cam Newton.
PFT CommenterThe Done Chain is officially on the Houston Texans
I am going to hang the Done Chain on the Houston Texans. Done. Done. I'm done with them.
PFT CommenterDeshaun Watson will not have a great season due to his ACL recovery timeline
I didn't think that Deshaun Watson was going to have a great year this year because Adrian Peterson screwed it up for everybody by coming back from that ACL so quickly... It's going to be like a year and a half before he gets back to normal.
Big CatAndrew Luck's shoulder is not fully healthy
When the Colts wanted to go Hail Mary, they brought in Jacoby Brissett. Andrew Luck's shoulder... maybe not as healthy as we think it is.
Big CatPatrick Mahomes will win MVP and be inducted into the Hall of Fame in his rookie year
I think he's going to be the first player ever in his rookie year to win MVP and automatic induction to the Hall of Fame.
Big CatThe Vikings will beat the Rams on Thursday Night Football
The Vikings are going to beat the Rams up Thursday night... Because the Rams are the best team in football, we can all agree... don't take anything the week before and put it on this week.
What'S The Beef
Big CatShaq and Dwight Howard are more alike than people realize
Shaq and Dwight Howard are more alike than people realize... Shaq is kind of a fucking loser like that too, where he can joke... but if you come at him, he's kind of a baby about it.
Who Is Back
Big CatTiger Woods is all the way back
Tiger Woods is all the way back. He won the Tour Championship... Tiger Woods still was able to break through to anyone who's even watching football who doesn't even care about golf.
