Gardner Minshew's ability to make fans "feel things" is exactly what you need in an NFL quarterback

Gardner Minshew is a quarterback. We don't know if he's great yet, but what we do know about Gardner Minshew is he makes us feel things, and that's all you need from a quarterback in the NFL. You want a quarterback that makes you feel stuff. Gardner Minshew makes me feel amped up and ready to go out and get in some trouble. And that's what I want out of a quarterback.

This is a subjective opinion about the intangible qualities of a quarterback.

I am officially done with Marcus Mariota

I am officially hashtag done with Marcus Mariota. Got the hashtag done. Done. I do not want to see Marcus Mariota play any more football. I'm done with him.

Mariota was indeed benched for Ryan Tannehill later in the 2019 season and hasn't regained his status as a franchise starter.

Ryan Tannehill will take a step forward and become a real quarterback this year

I think the Titans still are a decent team, but I actually, in a crazy world, I think Ryan Tannehill is ready to start and take a step forward. This is the year Ryan Tannehill finally takes a step forward and becomes a real quarterback.

Tannehill replaced Mariota, won Comeback Player of the Year, and led the Titans to the AFC Championship game in the same season.

Gardner Minshew is the permanent starter for the Jaguars even when Nick Foles returns

I don't think that you can put Nick Foles in when you have Gardner [Minshew] out here looking like Leonard Skinner's pilot, just crushing shit, just dominating, looking like he got his law degree in prison, throwing the football over the yard. You can't take that guy out of the game. He's going to be your starter.

Incorrect. Nick Foles returned from injury in Week 11 and was immediately named the starter for three games before poor performance led the team to go back to Minshew for the remainder of the season.

The Chiefs-Rams Trent McDuffy trade is the first true win-win trade in NFL history

I think the only win-win trade in the history of the NFL might be the McDuffy trade. The one that just happened. Where the the Chiefs traded McDuffy to the Rams. The Rams don't give a fuck about first round picks. They got a great player and they still have their better first round pick from the Falcons. That to me is the first win-win trade in the history of the NFL.

Subjective assessment of trade value over time.

The Rams have proven that first-round draft picks outside of the top 10 don't matter

Are the Rams doing it correctly? Not that draft picks don't matter. Draft picks outside of the top 10 don't matter as much... instead of taking risks on a bunch of 21 year olds, let's get the known commodity knowing it's a crapshoot and just keep punting that down the line being like, we don't care.

This is a subjective organizational philosophy that has yielded mixed results for other teams, though the Rams have remained competitive.

Alec Pierce is about to get a massive contract in free agency

I think Alec Pierce is about to get paid too. I think the market on Alec Pierce is gonna be crazy. Possible Patriot. Possible Commander.

Pierce remained on his rookie contract through 2024; he did not hit free agency or get a 'crazy' bag in 2025.
