Recap
Big CatI bet on the Baltimore Ravens to win the Super Bowl at 13 to 1
I have made a wager on the Baltimore Ravens to win the Super Bowl at 13 to one... Everyone's like, Oh, you know, no one's gonna be able to keep up with the bills and the chief's offense. Why not defense? Why aren't we looking for defense?
Big CatLamar Jackson will pull a 'Joe Flacco' and win the Super Bowl in a contract year
Wouldn't that be so Ravens too? I was about to say for Lamar [Jackson] to win the Super Bowl in a contract year... And they have to pay him the Flacco. That would be, he would pull a full Flacco on you.
Big CatCarson Wentz was not the problem in Indianapolis; it was everyone else
I think I actually take Carson Wentz's side in the breakup. Because like they remember how much they bashed him and were like, he's not a leader. He's the reason we lost the Jags. Now that we've moved away from it, you know, eight months and we've seen some more stuff. I think Carson Wentz was not the problem. It was just all the other guys.
PFT CommenterThe Colts hired Jeff Saturday as bait to eventually lure Peyton Manning to be the GM
My conspiracy theory says that they hired Jeff Saturday because they want to hire Peyton Manning to run the team to do a GM in the future... Now Jeff Saturday is a real life puppet of Peyton Manning as the head coach just to bring the rest of Peyton Manning's body from the wrist all the way back to be the, to be the general manager.
Big CatBrian Kelly will create an LSU program that consistently beats Alabama
This now feels like it could be Brian Kelly could create a team at LSU that consistently can beat Alabama. Not one year where you have the like this incredible, incredible team and talent. It's no, every year LSU should be able to compete with Bama.
Hot Seat Cool Throne
Big CatI bet Tua Tagovailoa to win the MVP at 16 to 1
I made another bet—Tua [Tagovailoa] to win the MVP 16 to one. What's gonna, if Josh—this is, it is also based like, I hope Josh Allen's not hurt, but if he is hurt, Tua feels like he's got a lot of, lot of like people feel bad about the concussions. He's gonna have some, a lot of numbers.

Jared GoffDan Campbell says 'man' at least a hundred times a day
How many times does Dan Campbell say the word man? Man, I just said at least when we're in the building players at least a hundred. At least I know, I'm sure he does it a lot in his interviews, but man, man, man. No, he does it a lot. Probably at least a, at least a hundred.
