Recap
Big CatNo NFL quarterback has a closer connection to their city right now than Josh Allen has with Buffalo
I don't think there is a closer connection quarterback to city right now than Josh what Josh Allen has going on in Buffalo. ... I don't think there's anyone right now [above him].
Big CatTrevor Lawrence is officially back in the bust category
Trevor Lawrence is now back officially into the bust category. ... This is as rock bottom as you can be if you're a Jaguars fan because you have the guy that was supposed to be the next Peyton Manning, the surest like sure thing. Oh, and then you might miss.
PFT Commenter95% of NFL games are lost, not won
There was a great quote by Ian Eagle during the game. ... Ian Eagle said 95% of games in the NFL are lost and not won. ... I still don't know what the fuck he was talking about, but it makes sense.
Big CatThe Vikings are frauds
I guess I have to say now I had this circled on Friday show as this is the game the Vikings will be proven to be frauds. I was wrong. The Vikings won this game... [but] I agree with [PFT], I still think they're frauds.
Jake MarshTua Tagovailoa is having a better season than Justin Herbert
Tua Tagovailoa's having a better year than Justin Herbert right now. He is the guy... I think if Tua didn't get hurt, they would be at the top of the AFC right now.
Big CatIf Matt Nagy had utilized Justin Fields' running ability, he would still have a coaching job
I'm gonna say something really crazy. If Matt Nagy was smart enough and he had run Justin Fields like they're doing the last few games, he'd probably still have a job.
Big CatMike McCarthy must reach the NFC Championship game to keep his job
I think he needs to get the NFC Championship game. ... Because you're expected to win. ... If he loses in a comically fat fashion, for Mike McCarthy, if he looks where his brain just stops... I could see Jerry Jones firing him.
PFT CommenterThe Bill Belichick coaching tree has a combined 41% winning percentage as head coaches
If you look at Belichick's former coaches that have gone on to coach in the NFL, their winning percentage is 41%. Not good. They're a combined 225, 319 and one. ... The best head coach that has been a former Bill Belichick assistant coach is Bill O'Brien.
Billy FootballI would trade Zach Wilson for Sam Ehlinger right now
I'm in both holes. Very deep. ... Then Sam Ehlinger would probably go to the Jets. Give, let's give Zach. ... As a guy who doesn't throw interceptions, that's the kind of guy you want as your quarterback.
Big CatPete Carroll is a legitimate Coach of the Year candidate
Pete Carroll's definitely in the conversation for Coach of the Year. This team was supposed to be one of the worst teams in the NFL. They, I think we quoted it last week, their over under for wins was five and a half. They're five and three right now.
Who Is Back
MaxThe Phillies will sweep their three home games and win the World Series without returning to Houston
I love my guys. We're gonna win the next three games. We won't even go back to Houston. ... We're gonna score so many runs this week.
