Blake Bortles is a great fit for the Packers because the league is moving toward mobile quarterbacks

I think that this is a good landing spot for him. I think the Packers see the direction that the league's going in. You need a quarterback that can move. He's got the highest yards per carry of any quarterback in the NFL, I think, in the last five years. I think this is going to be a great system for him up there.

Bortles did not play a regular season snap for the Packers, as Rodgers eventually reported and played.

Aaron Rodgers will be the quarterback of the Green Bay Packers Week 1

I think Aaron Rodgers is going to be the quarterback of the Green Bay Packers week one. I still do. We have our friend of the program, John Kuhn, acting as an intermediary to the public, saying that he thinks there's a way for them to come together, which essentially means the Green Bay Packers are going to pay Aaron Rodgers a shitload of money.

Prediction Football Medium

Aaron Rodgers did return to the Packers and started Week 1 of the 2021 season against the Saints.

The Saints' Week 7 game against the Seahawks will be the moment everyone realizes Drew Brees is really gone

Week 7, Monday Night Football, the Saints at Seahawks. I think that will be the first moment where we're like, oh yeah, Drew Brees isn't on the Saints anymore because we'll be waiting to watch Monday Night Football and for Drew Brees to break some record that isn't there anymore.

Tom Brady will break one of Drew Brees' records when he returns to New England in Week 4

Tom Brady going back to his old stomping grounds... and that's probably going to be the weekend where he breaks one of Drew Brees' records, I think.

Prediction Football Medium

Correct. Tom Brady broke the NFL all-time passing yards record (previously held by Drew Brees) during the Buccaneers' Week 4 game against the Patriots in 2021.
