You got the full Joe Flacco experience — elite stretches where he can throw it a mile, then he just quits after the first quarter; that's Baldinger's cat

You got the full Joe Flacco experience because the old debate on whether or not he's elite goes back to Joe having games and stretches where he's just like, oh, this guy can throw the football a mile. And then he'll have a game like this where he just pretty much quits after the first quarter. And it's like, okay, it's not here today. I'm not elite today, but my eliteness will come back. It's Baldinger's cat — being elite and not elite at the same time.

The Texans are officially 'next up' and will be a powerhouse that the rest of the AFC has to deal with for the next decade

The Texans are next up. I think that's officially happened. We'll see how the rest of the Playoffs go for them. But the conversation is now when you talk about the AFC and it's [Joe] Burrow and it's [Josh] Allen and it's [Patrick] Mahomes, it's [Lamar Jackson], C.J. Stroud and the Texans and how good they are. This quickly is insane. ... you're gonna have to deal with the Texans.

C.J. Stroud has the best rookie season ever for a quarterback

I think the conversation might end with [Stroud] is the best rookie season in its totality in the NFL. ... led him to the Playoffs. This is, and who knows, I mean, they, they're probably, although I'm thinking back to it, like they played the Ravens, I think week one. ... and now winning a Playoff game as a rookie quarterback. I think [Stroud] might be it.

The overturning of Folarin Balogun's suspension is the smallest piece of justice the United States has ever received from FIFA

The United States has never benefited from FIFA's corruption before, and it feels like we've been left out of that party. If this is our taste of the corruption, and all the corruption is just overturning a suspension that should never have been given in the first place... it's the smallest piece of justice that the United States could ever get from FIFA.

The sensor chips inside soccer balls are bullshit and not perfectly aligned with the cameras

I'm so deep into this chip in the ball thing, I've become convinced that it's all bullshit. The sensors, yes, they're there and yes, they pick up on stuff, but there's no chance that it is perfectly aligned with the 50 cameras that are running concurrently in the stadium on live TV at any given time.

Brandon Aiyuk is in a bad space mentally and will not be signing with the Washington Commanders.

The Washington Commanders have released Brandon [Aiyuk] today from the contract that he didn't sign with us and was never going to sign. Things got kind of weird over the weekend. So [Aiyuk] was saying like talking shit about Jayden's mom... I think that should probably put an end to the Brandon [Aiyuk] to the Commanders rumors. But I was never really on board for it, it's been weird for quite some time with Brandon. I hope he gets whatever help he needs. It doesn't seem like he's in a good space mentally. And it seems like even his best oldest friends have tried to help him and he just burns those bridges too.
