All Takes
Miles Garrett should be the NFL MVP if he breaks the all-time sack record
Miles Garrett should be the MVP if he breaks the all-time sacks record, which it looks like he's on pace to break/smash/shatter... If Miles Garrett does all this on the Browns, that's equivalent to Lawrence Taylor doing it on crack.
Lane Kiffin will leave Ole Miss to coach LSU
I feel like it's gotten the point where you, if I had to guess I would say LSU. [Lane Kiffin] is probably gonna leave. I'm changing my, I know I said like two weeks ago I didn't think he was gonna leave.
Drake May will throw for over 300 yards for the first time this weekend against the Bengals
This is my prop of a lifetime this weekend. It's Drake May to throw 300 yards for the first time plus 264. I put it in before the show started. I feel like this is the week... the Bengals defense, you can't help but throw 300 yards against them.
The Chiefs' 18% success rate in clutch situations is the worst of any NFL team in the last decade
If you make the criteria that if it's within eight points in the final five minutes of regulation... the Chiefs success rate is, I believe [Mahomes] is two for 10 for 29 yards. That means they have an 18% success rate in those clutch situation plays. 18% would be the absolute lowest of any NFL team over the last decade.
The Colts will beat the Chiefs this weekend
I think I like the Colts this weekend. Gimme the Indianapolis Colts plus three and a half... gimme the hook, gimme the Colts and nuke it. Nuke City.
James Franklin is leaving Penn State to become the head coach at Virginia Tech
James Franklin is using the Penn State private jet to move to Blacksburg... I am so pumped that of course. That's the other reason why a jet would go there... I do think that [James Franklin] is gonna be the next coach... somewhere else next year.
The CFP committee is intentionally suppressing JMU in favor of the AAC winner
I think that what is happening right now is they had their heart set on the American [AAC], on that conference. Whoever wins that conference is going to get just pigeonholed in. Doesn't matter what else happens.
Oregon could be in serious playoff trouble if they lose to USC this weekend
What happens if Oregon loses this weekend? ... They could be in trouble because the one win that they have on their schedule that's really doing a lot of work is the Penn State win... the committee is still valuing that Penn State win as being a quality win because it's back when Penn State was good. ... but if you're looking for an argument against Oregon, if they lose this weekend, that's where you go.

And [Cameron Boozer] was named after the stadium. ... Yeah, it's a fact.

Drake Maye will have 304 passing yards against the Bengals this Sunday

Do never, do not ever take apart a microwave because you'll die. You'll get electrified. They've got like a bomb inside of them. ... You have a nuclear weapon in your kitchen.
The Commanders are one of the worst teams in the league
I think the Commanders are one of the worst teams in the league. We just lost to the Dolphins... the offense is trash, the defense is also very, very, very bad.
I am not concerned about the Buccaneers; they will still win the NFC South.
I am not super concerned about the [Bucs]. I still think they're gonna win that division. I know the Panthers are breathing down their neck... As long as the Panthers don't get favored anymore games... I'll be okay with that.
I officially trust the Rams with my life.
I think the Rams, I think the Rams definitely [are] one of those teams now [that I trust with my life].
J.J. McCarthy is the new Tim Tebow.
J.J. McCarthy is the new Tebow. He just is. He's like, he'll throw an interception, go to the sidelines and like pat everybody on their shoulder be like, 'come on guys. Yeah. We all gotta step it up.' And then sometimes he'll pull like some magic out of his ass in the fourth quarter.
Raheem Morris is on the hot seat after five straight losses
I think that I've been hesitant to say Raheem Morris is on the hot seat. He's on the hot seat now. This is five in a row that the Falcons have lost.
The Titans should stop punting and go for it on every fourth down for the rest of the year.
They should just not punt. They should say fuck it. Let's just get reps in on offense... Nobody gives a shit what happens with your special teams. Correct. It's not gonna do anything.

Josh McDaniels deserves more respect as an offensive coordinator and will eventually get a third shot as a head coach
I think Josh McDaniels, he needs more respect. I've been saying that he's, he is a great offensive coordinator and we definitely, we whiffed on Wednesday's show when we talk about retread head coaches... McDaniels is, he is that guy that got the second shot, he's gonna get another shot.
The Commanders defense will be energized and more competitive with Dan Quinn taking over defensive play-calling
I actually liked the Commanders this weekend... Because we've got Dan Quinn taking over defensive play calling. I don't think he's gonna be a difference maker enough to make the defense good, but I don't think they're gonna be historically bad like they've been in the past month. And also, if you have an embarrassing performance overseas, that's when a coach can get fired.
The Dolphins will eventually play well enough that Mike McDaniel keeps his job for next season
I do think that it's a possibility that they play well enough where Mike McDaniel's the coach going in next year.

The College Football Playoff committee is intentionally keeping JMU out because they don't want any 'presidents' in the bracket
I think it's a anti-PFT thing. I think maybe the college football playoff committee has gone woke and they don't want any presidents in their bracket. Makes sense. It's sad. I mean, just fast forward 20 years, Trump University probably will be blacklisted too.
James Madison deserves a playoff spot because they are undefeated on Saturdays.
One school [James Madison] has not lost on a single Saturday... Undefeated on Saturdays. The other school [South Florida] has lost twice on Saturdays... You better hope to God that it's on a Friday if you don't put the undefeated on Saturday team in.
LSU's legal strategy of firing their AD for 'cause' to void Brian Kelly's contract is ironclad in Louisiana.
I think they're also gonna go with the, we fired Scott Woodward for cause therefore, anything that he did at the end of his tenure was also not an official act of LSU and their athletic department... Listen, I think in Louisiana it plays. I think that's ironclad.

The Packers, on the other hand, I feel like Tucker Kraft was the most important. He might be, he might get my vote for MVP.
The NFL should ban the tush push because the Eagles are simply too much better at it than everyone else.
I hope they ban it because the Eagles are so much better at that play than anybody else. And I would, I would prefer them to not be able to dominate teams with it. But if you're asking me if the plays should be banned? No, it's, it's, it's not their fault that they're better at it.
The Luka Doncic for Anthony Davis trade will be seen as a win-win in ten years.

I can pass the bar exam without going to law school if I study for four months

The Commanders should not let Jayden Daniels play for the rest of the season
Under no circumstances should Jayden Daniels step foot on the field with this team this year. The defense is Yes, historically bad... I'm full on tanking. And, and there was a report last week that, that Jayden might come back after the buy. You should. I, I wanna be perfectly clear about this. Under no circumstances should Jayden Daniels step foot on the field.
Jonathan Taylor will win NFL MVP if the Colts finish with the best record in the league
If the Colts have the best record in the league and [Jonathan Taylor] has just an unreal season, yes. I I think he will get MVP.

I gotta remind you, Big Cat, it's not about West Virginia. It's about West Virginia. Yes... It's about the Shenandoah Valley [which is in Virginia].
It is coaching malpractice for Brian Daboll to play Russell Wilson over Jameis Winston
The fact that [Brian Daboll] has Russ Wilson starting or coming in second off the bench instead of Jameis, is it's malpractice as a coach. I think that's actually a worse mistake than losing four consecutive games where you have a lead by 10 or more points.

The Commanders will finish with a top-five pick in the NFL draft

Bo Nix is essentially the new Tim Tebow
I'm a believer. But the bow [Nix] wins football games. This is why we've been saying that he is Tim Tebow. Did you, you give him all the credit in the world for this and it was, that was a dog shit football game.
Wind is less impactful on football games in Denver due to the high altitude
Did you know that at altitude mile high, the wind doesn't have as much of an effect because the air is so thin. So if it's blowing 20 miles an hour, 20 miles an hour in Denver is like 25 miles an hour down at sea level.
Sauce Gardner is exactly the type of player the Colts secondary needs
I think that [Sauce Gardner] is exactly what the Colts need in terms of a football player... he's exactly what the Colts need in terms of a football player [after the trade].

Lane Kiffin has officially taken his hat out of the running to be the Giants next head coach 'cause of coldness. [Kiffin] said not interested, too cold up there.

Do we think maybe it was still a soft benching and the soft— No, I think we should double down. Say the soft benching worked. It worked. Yeah. No, I'm a soft benching guy now. Listen, I'm gonna trust what [Kevin O'Connell] does. He's a quarterback whisperer. He's soft benched and he was right.
