Quarterbacks should take less on-field money to play for the Cowboys because the off-field marketing revenue is massive.
If you play for the Dallas Cowboys, whatever you don't make on the field, you can make up off the field on the mattress company that Dak [Prescott] is promoting. I think it's worth it to take a little less money on the field, have better players on the field, and open up even more doors if you win a Super Bowl off the field to making money marketing-wise in Dallas.

View episodeDraft Day would be one of the worst movies ever if it didn't have real NFL logos
Draft Day would be maybe one of the worst movies of all time if it didn't have the rights to the exact NFL logos and team names. If they had to make up like a fake NFL league, that movie would suck. Turns out that it rocks because it's like, oh, I recognize the Browns logo.
Will Levis cannot be considered a bust because he was not selected in the top 10 of the NFL Draft.
I actually think it's in a weird way, you can't be a bust if you go, if you don't go in the top 10. So now people won't judge [Will Levis] the same. Now he has time to flourish to be a multi-Super Bowl winner.
The Arizona Cardinals and the Houston Texans won the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft.
The Cardinals and the Texans might have just won the first round draft. I'm gonna give the Texans an A plus because they picked second and third and they got good players.

View profileBryce Young has the lowest ceiling among the top 2023 QB prospects because he is a 'finished product' coming out of Alabama.
I think at the end of the day, if you're Carolina, you want a guy that's gonna play week one. And the guy that's most ready to play in week one is Bryce. But he is also got the lowest ceiling because he's been coached by the best of the best at Alabama... you're getting a finished product. He doesn't need to be coached a ton. He doesn't need to be taught a ton... there's not a ton of upside like there was with Josh Allen five years ago.
If a quarterback has not learned how to fall correctly by the time they reach the NFL, they will continue to get injured.
If you're trying to figure out how to fall correctly at 24 in year three in the NFL, that's a problem. You learn how to absorb hits in junior high and high school. If you are trying to figure it out and trying to perfect that part of the game in year 2, 3, 4 in the NFL, you're probably gonna be getting hurt a lot.
Troy Polamalu and Ed Reed are the two most fearsome defenders in NFL history.
It's not one guy. It's two guys. It's Troy [Polamalu] and Ed Reed. They both played the same position, but you had to prepare for them totally differently... I had weeks where we were playing the Steelers, if Troy was on the right and the play was called to the right, I had at the line of scrimmage to change it to the left.
