The Dallas Cowboys are dead

The Dallas Cowboys are dead. D-E-A-D dead. Mike McCarthy... six weeks into the season and there's already a mutiny. He looks like he's given up. [The Cowboys] are ridiculously bad.

The Cowboys finished 6-10 and missed the playoffs in Mike McCarthy's first season.

Every team in the NFC East should try to get Ryan Fitzpatrick

Any one of these... anyone in the NFC East should try to get Ryan Fitzpatrick. The reason is pretty simple. You can maybe win the division at 6-10. Seven and nine, you're a lock. And all you need to do is like hope that the Fitzmagic times up perfectly at the start of the playoffs.

No NFC East team traded for Fitzpatrick in 2020. The WFT did win the division at 7-9 as predicted, and they actually signed Fitzpatrick the following offseason.

Josh Allen is no longer an MVP candidate

Josh Allen... he played bad. The Bills looked they have not looked great in the last two weeks. You know, he was not going to be the MVP now. He had a great start to the year. He's probably not gonna be the MVP now. I think that's fair to say.

Josh Allen finished 2nd in MVP voting in 2020 behind Aaron Rodgers.

The Colts would be better with Ryan Fitzpatrick than Philip Rivers

I have a take that's going to hurt my own myself, but I think the Colts would be better with Ryan Fitzpatrick. That would be wild wouldn't it? That would be wild now we're now that you said it it kind of makes sense.

Rivers led the Colts to an 11-5 record and a playoff berth. Fitzpatrick remained in Miami.

Ezekiel Elliott is officially fat

Ezekiel Elliott. Is he fat? I think Ezekiel might be fat now. Well, yeah when he starts mumbling he is. And also the nose ring's gotta go when you fumble you gotta take it out.

Elliott struggled in 2020 with 6 fumbles and his lowest yardage total to that point, though 'fatness' is subjective.

Clemson could beat the Jets if the Jets had mono

Do you think that Clemson could beat the Jets if they all had mono? Yeah, I agree. [If] Trevor Lawrence has mono and just straight up against Alabama... If Clemson like kills both all the quarterbacks that are listed for the game then they have a chance.

The Jets were terrible (2-14) but the talent gap between NFL and college is historically massive. This is a satirical hypothetical.

Joe Buck did nothing wrong with his flyover comments

Recurring guest Joe Buck... our good friend... he's on the hot seat because some rat from the Fox Sports production crew leaked audio of Joe Buck and Troy Aikman talking about the flyover and how it's like a waste of jet fuel... he didn't say anything wrong, right?

Buck faced backlash but did not suffer professional consequences for the comments.

Clayton Kershaw is the greatest postseason pitcher of all time

Clayton Kershaw has the most wins in my book of any starter in the last 25 years since the wild card came around. So yeah, he's he might be the best postseason pitcher out there of all time.

Ironically, Kershaw went on to pitch very well in the 2020 World Series, winning two games and finally getting his ring, making the sarcasm age strangely.
