Recap
Big CatThe Bears' new coaching regime under Matt Eberflus will likely be fired in a few years
This new regime of Matt [Eberflus] and Ryan [Poles] is probably going to be fired, which that is very funny that they just did that again. It's probably going to be fired in a few years anyway. I didn't realize that... I've completely flipped my opinion that organizations fail players and fail coaches.
Big CatIf Aaron Rodgers goes to the Broncos and beats Mahomes twice a year, he's the GOAT
If Aaron Rodgers goes to the Broncos... he does get to have these primetime duels with Patrick Mahomes twice a year. It would be like if he starts beating Patrick Mahomes' brains in kind of re-figures his legacy. He has to be regarded as the greatest quarterback of all time.
Interview
Julian EdelmanThe Bears should have hired an offensive coach to pair with Justin Fields instead of Matt Eberflus
I was looking at that and I was a little conflicted. You have a young quarterback and we've seen with all these other teams when they're surrounding these guys with those quarterback whispers, whatever you want to call it, these offensive minded coaches, we've seen a lot of success... I personally would have went to the opposite direction of [defensive minded].
PFT CommenterKyler Murray's bad body language and lack of sideline chemistry suggest he isn't a great leader
Something that I've noticed about Kyler [Murray] in the last, maybe three games of the regular season... in that playoff game, the body language from him, like he never had any of his teammates ever around him on the sideline... He always looked like he was either bored or like very sad to be at the games. And yeah. So I think it does make a difference.
Julian EdelmanTom Brady has one more year of football left in him
I think he's got one more year. Cause it's like looking at the Bucs roster. It's family. Yeah. That's the family's tough. It's going to have to be really good for him... This is the most I've ever felt like he could probably hang them up, but you know what I mean? It wouldn't surprise me either way.
Julian EdelmanThe 49ers will beat the Rams in the NFC Championship Game
I'm going Moneyline... San Francisco 49ers. They're going to win. Jimmy G is going to have a good game. I do. Kyle Shanahan is probably preaching to this guy... Hey Jimmy, just take care of the ball... I think he's going to have his best game this week. He's going to go out there. He's due for a good game.
Julian EdelmanThe Bengals are a 'team of destiny' and will beat the Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game
I'm going with the Bengals. Cause they're I think they're a team of destiny. Joe, Joe Burrow. This is the first number one pick to ever go to the AFC championship or a championship game into his third or second year.
PFT CommenterI am betting on the Bengals with my heart this weekend
I think my heart is telling me to bet on the Bengals and I'm going to listen to my heart this weekend. I know it could be like my head. My head is out the door already... My heart is pulling me so hard to the Bengals. I want this for Joe Burrow.
Fyre Fest
HankI don't believe the United States will ever be good at soccer
I just don't believe that we will win. It's that simple... I wish we were good at soccer. We're not. And I'm not gonna pretend like soccer matters in this country when it doesn't.
Big CatCaleb Williams will transfer to the Wisconsin Badgers
I've fully bought into the fact that Caleb Williams might be a Wisconsin Badger and it's makes no sense. And his choices are between Wisconsin, LSU and USC... I've sold myself on it and I've sold myself on him coming. He's the number one recruit in all football.
