I would be much more successful in today's NFL spread offenses

I'm a little jealous of what's going on right now with the spread offenses. It makes it a lot easier for a smaller guy to be successful in run the quarterback draw... we were running RPOs [in Canada] in '94, '93.

While testable in theory, it's a hypothetical claim about the evolution of the game.

Jerry Jones will fire Jason Garrett at halftime of one of the wild card games

I actually think at this point he will fire Jason Garrett like at halftime of one of the wild card games just so that we can talk about it or he might just give him a contract extension on the 14th.

Jason Garrett was officially fired on January 5, 2020, following the wild card games, but not during a halftime show.

Dave Gettleman is only hiring 'computer folks' for show and won't actually listen to them

He's hiring computer folks. I was joking when I when I saw that clip that it really is like your dad when he gets too many viruses on his laptop... He's not going to actually listen to them. No, that's the thing. He's just hiring them to say that he has computer folk.

Gettleman's tenure was widely criticized for failing to modernize, and he was eventually replaced by Joe Schoen who fully overhauled the analytics department, suggesting the initial 'computer folks' hire didn't change much.

Matt Rhule will be the next head coach of the New York Giants

Who do you think gets the job for the Giants? Matt Rhule. If [Rhule] can get his own Smock I think is going to be the Giants.

Matt Rhule signed a massive contract to become the head coach of the Carolina Panthers just days after this episode aired.

Frosted Flakes milk is a top-five milk

Frosted Flakes milk is a top-five milk. I think. Oh, no doubt. No doubt.

This is subjective cereal ranking.

Notre Dame will not win a national championship anytime soon

Are they gonna win a National Championship? Not soon. I don't think so. They're not bad. They will be in that college football playoff picture every year to be a top ten team... but there are some things that make it much more difficult at Notre Dame to win a National Championship.

As of the 2023-24 season, Notre Dame has still not won a national championship.

Matt Ryan is actually 6'5" and significantly bigger than he appears

Matt would stand next to [my nephew] on the sideline and matt was just thick and wide 6'5 every bit of 6'5. Tremendous quarterback.

Ryan is officially listed at 6'4", so Flutie's 'every bit of 6'5"' is a slight exaggeration but directionally accurate.
