The NFL should replace the onside kick with a 4th and 15 conversion attempt

The onside kick is pretty much dead with the new rules, I do think they've got to come up with something. Give a team a chance. Maybe you've got to convert a fourth and 15 or something or a fourth and 12 or something just to get the ball back and regain possession.

The NFL has discussed this but as of 2024 has not officially replaced the onside kick with a 4th-and-15 play.

LeBron James activating 'playoff mode' is a guarantee he won't win another title

Playoff mode for LeBron means that he's not going to win another title. So he is currently in playoff mode. ... He has played 10,000 hours of losing basketball in the playoffs, though. So he's very used to that.

LeBron won a title with the Lakers in 2020, making this prediction incorrect.

DK Metcalf is destined to be drafted by the Raiders

He's a Raider. Basically, Matt Millen and Al Davis' corpse are going to have a celebrity death match to see who can come back and draft him.

DK Metcalf was drafted by the Seattle Seahawks in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft.

DK Metcalf's 1.6% body fat is a huge red flag

1.6% body fat is actually a huge red flag for me. Have a burger, man. You're a psycho if you have 1.6% body fat.

While Metcalf had an excellent career, 1.6% body fat is physiologically near-impossible for a living human, suggesting the measurement was likely inaccurate.

Grit is the ability to not care what happens to you and just keep going.

Grit is, I would say, you know it when you see it. It's the ability basically to not care what happens to you and just keep going... What doesn't kill me doesn't bother me. Like think about it—I'm not dead. You can't bother me. You can't get to me. I think that's the definition of grit.

A personal definition from a head coach is inherently subjective.

Lamar Jackson is getting better in every way and is still only 28

He's getting better in every way. I like to think we all do throughout the course of our life. But as an athlete, at some point in time you do hit that point and starts going the other direction... Lamar is still getting better. He's only 28 years old.

Player improvement is subjective but can be measured by stats and awards. Lamar is still in his prime.

The kickoff will never be removed from the NFL

Do you think the kickoff is going to be gone in a few years? No way. No way? No, it's football. We've got to keep the foot in football.

As of 2024, the kickoff still exists, though it has been radically redesigned (2024 hybrid kickoff rule) to address safety while preserving the play.
