You have to have a quarterback who can win from the pocket to win Super Bowls

To win Super Bowls, you have to have a quarterback that can win it from the pocket. You gotta be able to have the guys that can win it from the pocket because they're too good. I think that, you know, when you think about quarterbacks, I still believe you gotta win it from the pocket.

This is a fundamental football philosophy that is highly debated but remains a cornerstone for many scouts.

I am already talking myself into 10 wins for almost every NFL team

The social media from the first weekend of the NFL being back is awesome because every team you think that you're gonna be like 10 wins. I can talk myself into 10 wins for any team except for maybe, maybe not the Panthers.

The Panthers finished with 2 wins in 2024, proving his hesitation correct. Most other teams did not reach 10 wins.

Steve Kerr is a piece of shit for not playing Jason Tatum

Steve Kerr is a piece of shit. That's, that's really what this all boils down to. Jason Tatum did have a better plus minus than Joel Embiid. So there's that.

The take is a subjective opinion on Kerr's character/coaching. Tatum did indeed have a 0 plus-minus while Embiid was negative.

Steve Kerr is trying to sabotage the Celtics' chemistry

Maybe Steve Kerr is trying to stop the dynasty before it starts. It would be awesome if Steve Kerr was just trying to fuck with the Celtics chemistry right now and just piss off their star player.

This is a subjective conspiracy theory about Kerr's motives.

I would have been a baseball player if my dad hadn't been fired at Washington State

If he [Jack Elway]... went for the job because he graduated from Washington State... and he was the runner up for the job. And thank god he didn't get that job. Otherwise I'd probably been a baseball player. Because the high school [in Pullman] ran the single wing. And so it would've never been exposed to what I got exposed to when we went down to Southern California in football.

This is a counterfactual historical reflection from the person involved.

Passing on Josh Allen was the biggest mistake of my GM days

I loved him [Josh Allen]. Right? But it just, you know, didn't work out... and you're right. That was probably my biggest mistake of my GM days. Well, was not taking Josh.

Josh Allen became an elite franchise QB while the Broncos struggled for years at the position. Elway admits the error.
