The Raiders have a 65% chance of moving to Las Vegas and 35% chance to San Diego

I'd say right now it's probably 65% Vegas, 35% maybe San Diego. I thought it was pretty much a done deal by now. Can you come up with $650 million to get this thing to go right?

The Raiders officially moved to Las Vegas. The San Diego possibility was real during negotiations but never materialized.

Vegas will be taken by storm once Brent Musburger moves there

Hot seat, I have Las Vegas. Brent Musburger is opening up a handicapping company in Las Vegas. So if you think that he's going to move out to the desert and not take that place by storm, then you haven't been watching television for the past 50 years.

Brent Musburger moved to Las Vegas and successfully launched VSiN (Vegas Stats & Information Network), which became a staple of sports betting media as the industry legalized.

I'm just going to throw it out there. I think Michael Vick's legacy is secure. He's one of the best quarterbacks ever.

Vick's legacy remains a debate between his revolutionary play-style and his criminal history, but he is widely regarded as a transformational figure in NFL history.

NFL TV ratings are still good but need to be adjusted for cord cutters and mobile viewers

Ratings have to be adjusted. You can't go straightly off the TV ratings, which are still good enough. because now you have to try to incorporate what's on your iPhone and all that, and they don't blend right now. Once they blend, they'll find out there's probably more football fans, but it's different football fans.

The NFL did eventually overhaul how it counts out-of-home and digital viewers to stabilize rating narratives.

Aaron Rodgers will eventually jump to the 4th or 5th best quarterback ever

I actually, well, a year ago, I put Aaron Rodgers as number 10 right above Bart Starr. And so I have him as number 10. But Rodgers is 10 right now, and I think he's probably going to jump up to, like, 5 or 4.

Rodgers won two more MVPs after this take (2020, 2021), further cementing his top-tier status, though consensus rankings vary widely between 3 and 7.
