Ryan Fitzpatrick Talking Conference Championships, Stavros Halkios And The Ravens Loss, Ohio State Wins The Natty, Bears Get Ben Johnson And Tensions Are Mounting

Ohio State was the best team in the inaugural 12-team playoff

Ohio State has done it. $20 million roster. Incredible team... they kicked the shit out of everyone in the playoffs. They were the best team in this playoffs.

The National Championship game should be played no later than January 10th

January 10th should be the latest they play the national championship. You can't have it. You can't have four NFL teams left and still not have a national title champion for college football. It just feels weird. It feels off. It's stupid.

Hiring Ben Johnson changes everything for the Chicago Bears franchise

Hiring Ben Johnson literally changes everything about this franchise and it's all the way back. Ben Johnson was the hottest ticket in the last two coaching hiring cycles... He picked the Bears, which makes me think that he thinks Caleb Williams is special.

Aaron Glenn is the number one coaching candidate on the market

If we sign Aaron Glenn, we got the number one guy on the market... He was the number one coaching candidate on the market.

Jayden Daniels is the best quarterback in the NFC Championship game

What matters is that we have the best quarterback in this game who's capable of doing things that other quarterbacks aren't... He's the hottest quarterback in the league right now.

The point spread does not matter in the Commanders-Eagles NFC title game

I think you can throw out spreads don't matter in this game. It doesn't, the spread does not matter at all unless the Eagles win by a field goal.

Sports should normalize a 24-hour window for sore losers to act out

I think we need to normalize more like bad losers. Like let 'em, let 'em be sore losers for a minute...

Novak Djokovic is the undisputed GOAT of tennis

Carlos Alcaraz... he got fucking worked by Kovich the goat. Djokovic is 37 years old and I thought, big bad Carlos Alcaraz, no one can beat this guy. Not so fast.

Travis Kelce remains elite because his mental game compensates for declining athleticism

Even as you've seen maybe his athleticism come back a few notches the last few years, he's still just as effective because of how smart he is. Zone coverage, he's gonna be able to find those holes. Patrick's gonna be able to look around the field and then find him.

Jalen Hurts, Tua Tagovailoa, and Brock Purdy are system-dependent quarterbacks

There's other guys that you could sprinkle around and put 'em in the right systems. And I think Tua is like that. I think Brock [Purdy] is like that. I think Jalen [Hurts] is probably like that, where if you get 'em in the right spot, then they can be as good as anybody. But you can't necessarily pick them up and drop them in any situation and have them be elite.

Washington must score 30-40 points to beat the Eagles in the NFC Championship

In order for Washington to win the game, they've gotta score 30 plus points and maybe 40 to win this game. They've gotta light up the scoreboard.

The Ravens lost to the Bills because they failed to run Derrick Henry on the goal line

Why the fuck did we throw the ball? And when we were first in goal, where the fuck did we run it four times? Why the fuck did we bring Derrick Henry if we're goal line and they're not gonna throw the fucking ball?

Lamar Jackson will eventually win a Super Bowl

I want to say here and now because I believe that Lamar will win a Super Bowl at some point... I just think he'll win a Super Bowl when he wins a Super Bowl. I'm not saying if, when he wins a Super Bowl for the Ravens.
