The Bears roster is almost good enough to beat the Packers, and I like Caleb Williams as a prospect

Yeah, I do [think Caleb's a good quarterback]. I like Swift. I like Keenan, DJ. I like the receiver from Washington [Rome Odunze]. I think the team is almost good enough to beat the Packers.

Caleb Williams' performance and the Bears vs. Packers record in 2024 will determine the accuracy.

The Egyptian pyramids are much older than conventional history suggests

I'm wearing the Graham Hancock camp as far as like that the age of those structures is much older than they tell us. I'd like—I mean he talks a lot about the Younger Dryas and going back 10,800 years I believe it is. And to me that seems more in line.

This is a fringe scientific theory. Traditional Egyptology dates the Giza pyramids to roughly 4,500 years ago.

Politics in the US is a sham where nothing ever changes

Politics I've said from the beginning is an absolute sham. Life doesn't actually get better for any of us, whether it's a Republican or a Democrat. And we're still just doing the same fucking two party system and not letting Bobby [Kennedy] get in or anybody else.

The impact of politics on life is subjective and varies by individual.

The US should have a 70 or 75-year-old age limit for political office

But just some common sense politics. Let's not let anybody over 75—the Packers have a rule, 70, you gotta retire. You go into a board of directors, it's 70, you gotta retire. That seems to make pretty good sense.

This is a policy opinion that has not been enacted.

The New York media is unethical and prioritizes control

The media in general is scared of people that they can't control. Because they built this brand that can't be controlled. I would say the majority of them too are so unethical. The practices now is just a fucking joke.

The ethics of journalism is a matter of intense debate.

I will play at least two more seasons with the Jets to win two Super Bowls

I'm not sure [how many more years]. This one for sure. I'd like to do two good ones and give us a chance to retire a Jet, you know, win two Super Bowls.

Rodgers left the Jets for the Steelers. The Jets went 3-14. He did not retire a Jet or win Super Bowls with them.

Steve Harvey is the greatest game show host of his generation.

But I will say one guy who's transcended all of that and even surpassed Louie Anderson, who nobody thought ever could is Steve Harvey with Family Feud. America's host Family Feud. You know what I mean? I think Steve definitely did that.

This is a subjective ranking of game show hosts.

If you're down eight with two minutes left, just take the points

You kick a field goal there. Just take the points. Just take the points, that's it.

The decision was widely criticized and the Packers lost the game.

The West Coast offense is the most beautiful offense ever created

I grew up in the West Coast offense. West Coast offense, I think is the most beautiful offense ever created. It's very, it's about timing and rhythm and balance and everything makes sense protection wise... It started with Bill Walsh and Montana and Paul Hackett.

Subjective opinion on offensive schemes.

Steve Harvey has surpassed Louie Anderson as the greatest game show host

One guy who's transcended all of that [Alex Trebek] and even surpassed Louie Anderson, who nobody thought ever could, is Steve Harvey with Family Feud. He's America's host... I think Steve definitely did that.

I will probably retire in 3 or 4 more years

I do think deep down realize this chapter of my life's coming to a close soon. I'm trying to enjoy it a little bit more than when you're 21... [Retire] in three more years. Maybe four.

Aaron Rodgers said 3-4 more years from 2022. As of Feb 2026, he is contemplating retirement after the 2025 season, roughly on timeline but not yet confirmed.

I grew up as a Chicago Bulls and Cubs fan

Chicago was Chicago. You got a hundred years of bears football almost right. You have the Chicago bulls. I grew up a bulls fan... and we could get WGN so we could watch, you know, Cubs, baseball, Harry Caray, you know, that was like iconic and bulls basketball. So we're like, so I grew up watching Chicago sports.

The 2014 NFC Championship loss to the Seahawks is the worst of my career

[The worst loss was] the NFC championship against Seattle. If one play goes our way out of all these... there's like eight plays. If one of 'em goes our way... we win that. We played New England who we had beaten earlier that year at home... but yeah, that one hurts. Always gonna hurt.

Todd Bowles and Mike Zimmer are two of the toughest defensive coaches to play against

I think Todd Bowles has done a good job at that over the years. I think he's a really good coach. What coach Bowles does with the pressure package... [and] Mike Zimmer for a long time was as hard as it came playing against because they had eight up looks, you know, double a gap and then double edges. It was one of the toughest defenses to go against.

This is a subjective professional opinion from an elite quarterback.

Matt LaFleur's use of constant pre-snap motion is frustrating because it prevents shifting tempo

I tell Matt [LaFleur] the same thing. I'm not telling you guys anything I wouldn't tell him. I got after him a day because every freaking play there's goddamn motion. I'm like, can we run one play without a motion to pass so we can get some tempo going because I like to switch the tempo. It makes it a little extra, extra strenuous sometimes on the quarterback.

Subjective schematic preference.
