I can still play in the NFL and am not technically retired

Can I still play in the NFL? Yes. Yes. Are you retired technically? No. I have not put in my paperwork or, you know, signed my anything with like the trust or anything like that. I've done that on purpose because I didn't want to have to do it twice. But no, I, I just train every week like I'm a player and then if I get the call, I'm ready to roll.

While he hasn't filed retirement papers, he hasn't been signed to an NFL roster in years.

NFL teams that score first in overtime should go for two

If you do get the ball first in overtime and you score, should you preemptively go for two? That would be the only thing that could save the 49ers if they said, yeah, our plan was to go for two if we scored a touchdown.

The 49ers did not score a touchdown first, so the theory wasn't tested, but the math on this is a major talking point in analytics circles.

Kyle Shanahan is officially the coach that can't win a Super Bowl

This is a label that's gonna wear on him. It is what he is at this point. Like until he wins a Super Bowl, we're just gonna say, yeah, Kyle Shanahan is the guy that can't win a Super Bowl.

Shanahan remains without a Super Bowl ring as of mid-2024.

Patrick Mahomes will soon reach AI-like super computer status

He'll soon reach super computer status where he'll know what to do before each play starts. He's just becoming AI. We've got AI Mahomes.

This is a hyperbolic description of football IQ.

Caleb Williams should have used his leverage to force the Bears to decide on Matt Eberflus before the draft

If you're a quarterback like Caleb, like Shadur coming out, and you have the power to tell a team, I need you to make a decision on your coach. All I was suggesting he do is say, I need to know what you're doing with the coach. So I don't come into a situation where the structure is bad. And now he's gonna be sitting there second head coach. Third offensive coordinator.

The Bears did fire Eberflus in-season, validating RG3's concerns about Williams entering a 'hot seat' situation with poor structure.

The Commanders could win the Super Bowl this year

I could see Washington winning the Super Bowl... I could see them winning the Super Bowl because it's so up in the air right now. Especially with the Lions... being so beat up on defense... Anything can happen once you get in the dance.

The Commanders did not win the Super Bowl. They made it to the NFC Championship but lost to the Eagles 23-55.

The Mike Silver story about Dan Snyder ignoring Kirk Cousins is 'fucking bullshit'

Mike Silver came on the show... and he told you this story about the Cleveland game. And it was a great game... and he told you a story about how Dan Snyder walked in the locker room and like damn near trucked Kirk to get to me and asked me if I was okay. That reminded me... it was a fucking over exaggeration of the story. Dan Snyder walked in the locker room... he didn't brush past Kirk Cousins. He walked to me... then he turned around and he congratulated Kirk Cousins on the job that he did.

RG3 was the person at the center of the story; his eyewitness account directly contradicts Silver's reporting. Without further evidence, it's a 'he-said/he-said' but RG3 is unequivocal.
