Aaron Rodgers is going to win the MVP and he deserves it

Aaron Rodgers is the MVP... I have to just sit here and say, he is most likely going to win the MVP. It's probably deserved. The Packers look awesome.

Aaron Rodgers won the 2020 NFL MVP award.

The Titans defense is not good enough to compete in the playoffs

The Titans are, I don't know what—I mean, they're kind of what we think. Like they're just—they can look explosive sometimes, but their defense is not good... I just don't think their defense can hang. They have no pass rush. There's zero pass rush and they just don't get off the field on third down.

The Titans lost in the Wild Card round to the Ravens, scoring only 13 points, while their defense allowed Lamar Jackson to rush for 136 yards.

Amazon will eventually buy the entire NFL

Amazon is going to buy the entire NFL eventually. You think it was a one-off [the Amazon game]? It is not. Amazon is going to buy the entire NFL.

Amazon secured exclusive rights to Thursday Night Football shortly after this, though they have not bought the entire league.

Kliff Kingsbury is a failure who has succeeded solely because he is attractive

Kliff Kingsbury. Are we sure he's good? It's kind of amazing when you look back at Kliff Kingsbury's entire resume and you realize like, oh, attractive people do really run this world. If you are a good looking guy and you can walk into a meeting and wow someone, you can fail upwards all the way. Kliff Kingsbury was 35 and 40 as the head coach at Texas Tech. He had two winning seasons out of six... Kliff Kingsbury, not very good.

Kingsbury was fired by the Cardinals after the 2022 season following a 4-13 campaign and never achieved consistent success in the NFL.

Ryan Fitzpatrick should be in the Hall of Fame as a contributor to the game

I actually think that Ryan Fitzpatrick should be in the Hall of Fame. I think he should be a Hall of Famer. Not just memorable, not just because the bust would be legendary with the beard in it, but because like he's provided so many great memories... if he's not a player, he should be contributor to the game and get into the NFL. Absolutely.

Fitzpatrick is widely beloved but lacks the accolades (Pro Bowls, All-Pros, playoff wins) typically required for Hall of Fame induction.

The Chiefs are playing too cute and it might cost them in the playoffs

I've got a take about the Chiefs. I think the Chiefs are getting too cute with it. They're playing too cute football out there. Are they too cute to win in the playoffs? I don't know. They used to be exactly the right amount of cute, but now it's like they've gone Anne Hathaway and all I need is an Emma Stone.

The Chiefs reached the Super Bowl this season but were blown out by the Bucs 31-9, struggling to score even one touchdown.

The 2020 Steelers are the worst 11-3 team in sports history

I tweeted out that they are—are they the worst 11 and 3 team in any sport in history? And I think they still might be. I don't see the Steelers being able to win in the playoffs.

The Steelers went 12-4 but lost at home in the Wild Card round to the Browns after trailing 28-0 in the first quarter, confirming their 'fraud' status to many.

You should always root for your team to make the playoffs, even if they'll get crushed

I know I've seen this like, 'Oh, why would you want to get in the playoffs and get the shit kicked out of you so that you get the worse draft picks?' What are you talking about? Being in the playoffs is all—that's what you root for... give me a seat at the table. A chip and a chair.

This is a fundamental philosophy of sports fandom that cannot be proven right or wrong.

The Ravens are officially the team that no one wants to play in the playoffs

I think the Ravens officially have become the team no one wants to play. We cast them off and now I think they are officially the team no one wants to play in the playoffs. I really do.

The Ravens won their Wild Card game against the Titans but lost in the Divisional round to the Bills, scoring only 3 points.

There is a 0% chance of beating a team if their coach smashes a watermelon before the game

I can't be—I'm 0 and 2 in watermelon games. I bet way too much on watermelons. I hate these watermelon games. I've lost so much money to the fucking watermelons. I cannot—there's a 0% chance of beating a watermelon team.

The Cowboys beat the Eagles in this game after McCarthy smashed a watermelon. However, they lost the next week to the Giants (McCarthy's watermelon magic ran out).

2021 will be the year of hard bodies

Hard bodies in 2021. What does that mean? We're just going to get hard. Hell yeah. By the end of 2021, you will be able to bounce a quarter off my abs and ass. We're the next generation of being hard.

Neither Big Cat nor PFT emerged from 2021 with 'hard bodies' as described; the resolution was a comedic bit.
