Recap
Big CatLamar Jackson will get hurt at some point due to his running style
The only problem is [Lamar Jackson] is going to get hurt at some point. I mean, I hope that he doesn't, but eventually he will. Ravens fans will say he doesn't run like every other running quarterback ever—he's good at avoiding hits, he's phenomenal—but if you look at the history of the NFL, eventually he's gonna get tucked.
HankThe Patriots beat themselves more than the Ravens beat them
I think the Ravens played a good game. I think Lamar Jackson is very good. But I think the Patriots beat themselves more than the Ravens beat them... turnovers will bounce their way, but it looks like the Patriots fucked themselves today with too many penalties and too many turnovers.
Big CatThe Jaguars must start Nick Foles over Gardner Minshew
I think this is a no-brainer. You have to start Nick Foles. And that's not saying Gardner Minshew isn't a quarterback in the NFL going forward, but you have money invested in Nick Foles... Gardner Minshew basically made it so either he plays so well that it's a no-doubter or he shits the bed right before Nick Foles came back. And guess what? He shit the bed.
Big CatKirk Cousins is the quarterback you'd least want in the fourth quarter
If you had to ask yourself starting quarterbacks, who is the guy that you would at least want to have the ball in the fourth quarter to bring a team back to win? I actually think it's Kirk Cousins... He had the ball twice at the end of the game [against the Chiefs], three and out, three and out, and not even close.
Big CatAdam Gase is going to get fired by the Jets
Adam Gase is going to get fired... The Jets entire system makes no sense at this point. They have a coach the GM was hired afterwards, so the GM didn't pick the coach and he didn't pick the quarterback. Adam gase is probably gone after this year because Joe Douglas didn't pick him.
Big CatThe Jets should draft Tua Tagovailoa and move on from Sam Darnold
If the Jets were somehow to get the first pick, do they take Tua? I think you would. I think you'd take Tua. Sam Darnold doesn't look like a quarterback anymore... You gotta get star power, you gotta get that name that pops in the Big Apple.
Big CatMatt Nagy needs to stop calling plays for the Bears
Matt Nagy needs to stop calling football games. He needs to hand over the play calling. It's not for him. It's not working. I like everything is broken. It's not working to do the same thing week in week out is fucking insane.
Big CatThe Steelers will make the playoffs
I've been hot on the Steelers are going to maybe make the playoffs. I looked at their schedule—they're four and four right now. They have games they should win: Browns, Bengals, Browns, Cardinals, Jets. If they win those five games, all they got to do is go one and two against the Rams, Bills, and Ravens and they would win 10 games.
Big CatJameis Winston is a future Hall of Famer
I'm a Jameis believer now. I think Jameis is going to be a Hall of Fame quarterback. He has all the makings for it. He has a bunch of advanced statistics... Jameis Winston is the unluckiest quarterback of all time. He commits turnovers at the worst possible times just out of pure luck.
Big CatRussell Wilson is the #1 quarterback you want in a 4th-quarter comeback
I think Russell Wilson is number one now in the NFL. He is the guy who, if you're down in the fourth, you want him to have the ball... He had five touchdowns today. I think that was his fifth comeback fourth-quarter comeback this season.
Big CatThe Browns should fire Freddie Kitchens
Freddie Kitchens is an absolute joke of a head coach. What do you do if you're the Browns? Freddie's got to be one and done. He is in way over his head. You just need to demote him and tell him he still has his job and he's just the offensive coordinator.
PFT CommenterThe Nate Diaz vs. Jorge Masvidal fight was stopped too early
They called the fucking fight early... Nate Diaz is the type of guy that I actually like his chances the more he gets the shit kicked out of him in the first three rounds. It wakes him up a little bit. The little nerdy doctor was like, 'No, this guy can't fight,' where Nate Diaz was like, 'No, I have not yet begun to fight.'
Who Is Back
PFT CommenterUrban Meyer is the leading rumor for the Florida State job
Coaching search season is back because Willie Taggart got the axe at Florida State and now people are speculating that they're going to throw a bag at Urban Meyer, who's waiting only for the USC job or the Notre Dame job to open up.
