Big Ben is going to play much better now that he is on the injury report

It's irrelevant to the fact that [Ben Roethlisberger] is going to play way better this week. And now that he's on the injury report... he needs to have some adversity. He needs a doctor to come out and say, any other player would not be playing right now, but big Ben has surreal strength.

Roethlisberger struggled throughout the 2021 season, finishing with a low QBR and showing clear physical decline, regardless of injury report status.

There is no difference between Jameis Winston and Carson Wentz

What is the difference between Jameis [Winston] and Carson Wentz? There's not a lot at this point. They both are very, very funny when they're trying to make plays... Carson Wentz is like Elmer Fudd where he's kind of the butt of the joke. He's still like out there trying to make things happen, but six times a game, he fires a shotgun and it backfires into his face.

Both players became journeymen quarterbacks defined by high interception rates and inconsistency in the years following this take.

Defensive backs should only be allowed to celebrate incomplete passes if they actually touch the ball

If you're a defensive back and a pass is thrown incomplete, you should not be allowed to celebrate that ever. Unless you touch the past the billboard rule... you're not allowed to do the incomplete sign. You're not allowed to get up in the receiver's face. If he drops a pass or it's overthrown, you're not allowed to celebrate that.

This is a subjective opinion on how NFL rules should be governed.

The traditional NFL broadcast is still better than the Manningcast for watching an entire game

My only thing is that it's good, but I feel like the regular broadcast is still better. Like when I'm watching the Manning broadcast, it just doesn't feel like a big game. It's casual and it's good, but watching an entire game, I keep switching back to the regular broadcast.

This remains a debated topic among NFL fans, though the Manningcast has maintained a dedicated but niche audience compared to primary broadcasts.

Arm length doesn't matter for a tackle as long as the quarterback doesn't have tiny hands

Arm length doesn't always dictate everything. If you have a guy that's got short arms that's playing tackle, it's not the end of the world unless maybe you also have a quarterback with tiny hands, in which case it's like synergy factors. Right. Where if the guy with short arms can't block the guy and then the guy with tiny hands gets hit, more likely to fumble.

Whether specific arm length correlates to fumbles based on QB hand size is largely theoretical and difficult to prove or disprove.

You should never order appetizers at a steakhouse to maximize your sides

I'm of the mindset now that you don't need any appetizers at steakhouses. It's, it's a good place to run Zero apps... You don't need the calamari at a steakhouse... The sides at a steakhouse are elite. The mashed potatoes are always elite... mac and cheese always elite at a steakhouse, you wanna maximize your sides to go with a steak.

This is entirely a matter of personal dining preference.

Trent Williams is the rare offensive lineman who is actually fun to watch play

Trent Williams is a joy to have on your team. He's just a fucking bully. He's also the rare offensive lineman where you have fun watching him play. Like after the ball was snapped, my eyes would just go to Trent Williams because it's like this guy, we might throw an interception, but Trent Williams might punch a guy in the throat.

This is a subjective opinion about entertainment value.
