Bill Belichick's football knowledge is great for media and TV

I think there's just so much knowledge there and the way that he can articulate it and he explains it... that's kind of what we got in a team meeting was this overall history of football, understanding of who we're playing, how we have to win.

Belichick has since received praise for his 2024 media appearances on the ManningCast and other shows.

Hitting too many 'dingers' caused my bicep tendonitis

I have bicep tendonitis in my right arm from hitting dingers... it hurts to lift my right arm. So the backswing, there's a lot of pain.

Hank's personal injury diagnosis, though its cause is based on his own perception.

I'm 'too fat' to go by Matt, so use Matthew instead

I'd prefer Matthew. I think I'm a little too fat for Matt. I think Matt's, you know, last six months, they've probably gotten laid.

This is a subjective personal preference.

I'm officially 'washed' after struggling in the home run derby

Tuesday night we hit dingers... but I think I'm officially, officially washed because... I was halfway through the whole competition and I looked at the leaderboard and it was like me, Titus, Chief, Brandon... every guy who's 37 plus. I was maxing out everything I had and it wasn't that good.

The definition of being 'washed' is subjective and relates to personal physical performance expectations.

I would not lose to Luke Fickell in a street fight

I do not believe if it was a street fight that I would lose to [Luke Fickell]. [Even though he's an elite wrestler], that is not a sanctioned wrestling event... I'm intimidating.

The outcome of a hypothetical fight between the two can't be verified unless it actually occurs.

NFL touchbacks will increase as the season goes on under the new kickoff rule

I think you'll probably see, I think as the season goes on, probably more touchbacks. I think that we'll see, you know, what's the difference? I know that analytically somebody's gonna... tell me the difference between the 25 and the 30 [yard line].

NFL touchbacks did increase under the new kickoff rules in 2024, as Vrabel predicted. The new dynamic kickoff format led to a learning curve, and many teams opted for touchbacks as the season progressed.

The Super Bowl is played at a speed so fast it's hard to even remember individual plays

It is so fast that I could probably tell you in 14 years, I could tell you every game that I played in from a rookie to a third-year player... and I can barely recall plays from the Super Bowl. It's that fast. It's wait, wait, wait. ... and then all of a sudden, you're on the field, and it's like the final drive.

This is a first-hand account of a player's experience, which is subjective but authentic.
