Recap
PFT CommenterAaron Rodgers is a serial coach killer
[Aaron Rodgers] is a serial coach killer. Mike McCarthy and [Robert Saleh]. If you kill two people, you're a serial killer.
PFT CommenterThe Jets interim coach Jeff Ulbrich will succeed because he is a wrestler
Jeff Ulbrich, he's got to work out because when it comes to interim head coaches, you either need a fat guy, or you need like an ex-player hardass... He looks like the ex-player hardass linebacker... Being a wrestler, I feel like is a big, big plus in the interim head coach power rankings.
Big CatThe Chiefs will win the Super Bowl again
What the Chiefs are doing is very dynasty Patriots-esque... They're just really, really good and they're going to win the Super Bowl again and we just all have to come to grips with that.
Big CatThe Patriots are starting Drake Maye specifically to sell throwback jerseys
Do you think this is because they're wearing the throwbacks and if they win, they're going to sell a shit ton of Drake Maye [jerseys]? Patriots throwbacks... You're absolutely right. Because why wouldn't you do it against the Jaguars?
MaxThe Phillies are dead and they are a soft baseball team
The Phillies are dead... The Phillies are a soft baseball team. The Mets are a hard baseball team. They're a tough baseball team. They come back from things. And the Phillies just don't, they just die.
PFT CommenterAaron Judge is not a true Yankee because he doesn't perform in October
I don't think he's a true Yankee, Big Cat, which is so funny to say because he's objectively one of the best hitters of his entire generation... but not a true Yankee because true Yankees, they get it done in October.
PFT CommenterAshton Jeanty should sit out the rest of the season to protect his NFL draft stock
With the state of the running back position in the NFL where you have to maximize your healthy years... Is it crazy to think maybe Jeanty should just sit down for the rest of the season? I would agree. He's already got a season's worth of stats.
Hot Seat Cool Throne
HankBob Costas is horrible at broadcasting baseball and should stop
Bob Costas... He just sounded, he's broadcasting the Yankees-Royals series and he sounds horrible... He has all the money. He doesn't need to do it. I don't get why he chooses to do it.
Interview
Troy AikmanCoaches and organizations fail quarterbacks more than the players fail them
I really believe that so many of these quarterbacks are really talented. They just get put in bad situations... I think that organizations and offensive coaches and offensive coordinators have failed quarterbacks more than quarterbacks have failed organizations.
Troy AikmanBuy stock in the Washington Commanders for the next 3-5 years
If the NFL was a stock market... [I'm buying] Washington. I wouldn't have said that prior to this year... I can't tell you how high I am on this quarterback [Jayden Daniels]. It's been a long time since I've been that high on a young quarterback.
