Sam Darnold will turn the ball over once or twice and effectively hand the game to the Patriots in the Super Bowl.

I think they're gonna go after [Sam Darnold] early in this game. I think that's, that's how you win this game... because he will give you one or two. I've seen it before with the Jets.

Bill Belichick not being a first-ballot Hall of Famer is an embarrassment

Bill Belichick not making into the Hall of Fame first ballot... It's an embarrassment. This is based on your career and your accolades and what you've done. This isn't a personality contest.

The Patriots will beat the Seahawks 27-20 in the Super Bowl

I'm going 27-20... because the reason I'm taking New England is I've done these games for 14 years now and no other season was there a game where they let go of the rope and they got blown out.

Rhamondre Stevenson will score the first touchdown of the Super Bowl

Rhamondre Stevenson... I think he's gonna run it in from about the six.

Musical artists like Bon Jovi should only play the hits and not new stuff

John [Bon Jovi]'s like, what do you think of the new stuff? And I'm like, what new stuff? ... I tell people this all the time. Play the hits. Give the people what they want. You get on a treadmill. I don't want to listen to new stuff.

The Patriots' intermediate level of coverage is their biggest weakness

Probably the intermediate level of coverage, whether it's linebackers, safeties down, the speed in the middle of the field... And if you lock them up, man... It's Cooks, you know, and these guys are going to have the ability to blow by you.

Tom Brady will play for 2 to 3 more years

I think, you know, if you asked me last year, I could see forward at one year... I think it's a kumbaya period where Bill's happy, Tom's happy... That fucker's having fun, and I think he wants to continue to have fun. So two to three years.

There 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.

Bill Belichick will coach the Patriots for at least three more years

Bill will coach the Patriots. I think at least three. Three to four.

Tom 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.

Matt 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.

Aaron 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.

The 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.

I was actually the original Tom Brady but I just never got the chance to prove it

I was originally the first Brady and timing was a bitch. You know, they drafted Bledsoe and [Parcells] like, I can't play [you]. I love you, but I got to play this guy... I wasn't ready, man. I just wasn't ready.

Ernie Adams is the secret genius behind Bill Belichick's success

I think Ernie Adams made Bill Belichick. That's an interesting thing to talk about because people don't know what Ernie Adams does. ... Ernie's a football Rain Man. When you go to Vegas, you're going to take Rain Man here to count cards. Ernie Adams is Bill Belichick's card counter. ... The Malcolm Butler play. They went over us and over us. Ernie drew up that Pete Carroll offensive red zone pass play just in case it came to a play on the one-yard line. ... Ernie Adams made that happen.

Tom Brady will play until he is 45 or 46 years old

How many more years do you think Tom Brady plays? Three. His dad, Tom Sr. and Tom, I think it's 45, 46, realistically. I don't know how long that body...

The Patriots' roster strategy is just signing every productive white receiver in the league

They found the team aspect defensively... they reload at receiver, man. They get [Chris] Hogan, freaking lacrosse player. They got Edelman. If Edelman is going to go down, they'll probably go get that [Cole] Beasley kid from Dallas... You're just picking out white guys... That's what the national press thinks they like to do.

Super Bowl LI Prediction: Patriots 33, Falcons 24
