Recap
PFT CommenterAlex Smith is the most Redskins quarterback of all time
Alex Smith is the most Redskins quarterback of all time. He hasn't played a snap, but he is the perfect R-Words quarterback. He is a watercolor version of Brad Johnson. He is more John Beck than John Beck is. He is like Colt McCoy on the world's worst steroids.
Big CatTo beat the Patriots, the quarterback needs to look like a mouth-breathing moron
To beat the Patriots, you have to look like a mouth-breathing moron. Eli Manning, he has put the book out on how to beat the Patriots. Nick Foles had that going when he had the weird glasses. Then he cleaned up, and you're like, this guy actually looks not bad.
Big CatThe Pistons will be the best mediocre team in the NBA following the Blake Griffin trade
The Pistons are basically like, we are going to be the best mediocre team in the NBA. Drummond and Blake are not going to play defense. We're going to give you the five seed for the next ten years of your career in the East, and then you're going to lose to the Celtics and the Cavs.

PFT CommenterNebraska is back because Scott Frost is hospitalizing players with Rabdo
Nebraska is back. Nebraska is back in a very, very big way. Scott Frost just implemented his conditioning program at Nebraska. And he got two players were hospitalized... with Rabdo, which means they're building up some muscles out there. That's a culture change.
Big CatThe Rockets will take down the Warriors if they get hot at the right time
James Harden dropped a 60-point triple-double... So I am officially saying, as of this date, January 31st, I'm a believer that the Rockets, if they get hot for a couple games... they're going to take down the Warriors.
Interview
Alex SmithStability is much harder for a young quarterback when playing for a defensive head coach
As a quarterback, that's the big difference, I think, between playing for a defensive head coach and an offensive head coach. As a defensive head coach, as great as it can be, you're still constantly – if you do well, your coordinator's leaving. And so the stability is always in question there.
Alex SmithRain is the worst weather for a quarterback, even worse than snow
Rain's the worst. Like dumping rain. Like if it were 40 degrees and raining and windy, that's the worst. I'll take snow over rain. Snow's actually fun.
Alex SmithMitchell Trubisky is going to light it up in the NFL under Matt Nagy
Matt [Nagy] is killer. I mean, I think Mitchell Trubisky's going to light it up. I think he's going to love it. I think they're going to do a bunch, put him in great situations. A lot of RPOs. I think he's a decent athlete, right? Do some fun stuff with him. Oh, yeah. We're going to have fun.
Scott ZolakThere is legitimate truth to the reported friction between Bill Belichick, Robert Kraft, and Tom Brady
Oh, there's definitely something true there. Just a little something there. Absolutely. There's something there. And I think there's always been something there from day one. I think it starts from all of them... when you have egos... it makes you dominate. It makes you want more.
Scott ZolakBill Belichick will coach the Patriots for at least three more years
Bill will coach the Patriots. I think at least three. Three to four.
Scott ZolakTom Brady will play at least two more seasons after this one
And I think Tom's going to play another two after this. I think he kind of has to based on the moves they've made.
Scott ZolakMatt Patricia has the ideal head coaching job among recent Patriots departures
Patricia's got the ideal job, I think, out of any of them. They got a franchise quarterback. So, the offense is already taken care of. You go in there, you fix the defense. Now, all of a sudden, you got a competitive game because the Bears stink.
Scott ZolakAaron Rodgers is a better 'tools' quarterback than Tom Brady
Technically speaking, Aaron Rodgers is a better quarterback. I agree with that. If you're talking about the tools, Aaron Rodgers' arm is off the charts and his ability to move is off the charts. That's just a fact. If you're starting a football team, your better chance is to take Rodgers and build around him because of his pure, raw physical talent.
Scott ZolakThe Patriots will beat the Eagles by 14 to 17 points in the Super Bowl
I got them by 14 to 17. Finally, we will get a Patriot Super Bowl in the fourth quarter to where I can kick back, relax, and start looking for a location of the post-game party.
As A White Guy
PFT CommenterSupporting the Chief Wahoo logo is actually anti-military because it represents stolen valor
Take a good look at Chief Wahoo because Chief Wahoo has one feather in his cap, right? And he's going around by Chief. This is stolen valor... that I word, is stealing valor from proper Chiefs. So if you support Chief Wahoo, then in reality, you're actually anti-military.
