Recap
Big CatFiring Mike McCarthy mid-season was the right move for the Packers
I actually I think this is the right move just because that team clearly has quit on him... The Packers were so clearly going to fire him. Why not just put everyone out of their misery? This actually probably helps Mike McCarthy. He can go get another job now.
PFT CommenterMelvin Gordon is the first or second best running back in the NFL
Melvin Gordon is like, I think – if not the best running back, probably the second best running back right now in the NFL.
Big CatI'm officially 'Done Chaining' the Carolina Panthers
I want to dun-chain the Panthers... The Panthers at 6-6 could easily catch someone and still get in the playoffs, but I honestly— Done chain them. I'm done chaining them. They're done. They don't have any fight. They look like shit.
Big CatThe Houston Texans are a 'Team of Destiny' to win the Super Bowl
I said to you, by the end of the season, they will have so many stickers and patches on their uniforms and helmets because of all these people dying that are associated with the Texans... This is a team of destiny. They're really good.
PFT CommenterThe Cleveland Browns are my dark horse team for next year
I think it's a year early for the Browns. We'll put them in that pile. Okay, so they'll be the Regis Philbin pick next year. Yes, they're going to be our dark horse that no one sees coming.
College Football Playoff
Big CatJalen Hurts will be an Alabama legend but won't do anything in the NFL
He's going to be the classic, like, not going to do anything in the NFL, but just be an Alabama legend forever. He'll do autograph signings for so much money for the rest of his life.
Who Is Back
HankThe Office will be rebooted within the next six months
I'm now just going to call my shot that within six months, [The Office] will be rebooted... Hank Guarantee. Yep. Six months.
Interview
Mike FlorioBruce Arians is the primary name for the Packers head coaching job
Without question, the first name, and I think the only name... Bruce Arians has already been making noise about coaching the crowd. If I'm the Packers, I want Arians because I need somebody who's going to get through to Rodgers.
Mike FlorioMike McCarthy will be a top candidate for the Cleveland Browns job
Don't be surprised if McCarthy's name ends up at the top of the list in Cleveland... I'd be looking for current head coaches to maybe be thinking about trying to get to a place like Cleveland or Green Bay.
Mike FlorioLe'Veon Bell will sign with the Jets for more than $17.5 million per year
I think the Jets, the Jets are the team. And I think the over-under is $17.5 million a year, and I'll take the over.
