I'm pivoting Leroy into grading the scoops of actual insiders instead of breaking news
I'd like to pivot [Leroy] out of the breaking news game, put him out to stud, put him out to retire... and then use the account to grade the scoops of actual insiders. Leroy serves as the judge and says this scoop goes to [whoever].

View episodeI don't think Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski will retire as Buccaneers, unless they win a Super Bowl
Do you think Tom Brady and Gronk will retire as Buccaneers when they go into Canton? No. I think it might [happen] if they win a Super Bowl, but there's definitely like a one side of me [that] makes it sense... it's like a one last hurrah, to Florida, nice weather... I just can't do it. I can't be like the biggest Bucs fan.
Bill Belichick is cold-blooded and will always choose assets over personal beef
Belichick is the most likely [to make the Gronk trade]. He's like, oh I get a free asset. Most other coaches would be like no. I'm going to let my personal beef standing between me and making the right choice. Belichick is so cold blooded. He'll just be like, yes, I will get something for nothing.
The Patriots only let Tom Brady go to Tampa Bay because they couldn't prove tampering, and it's actually a master plan by Bill Belichick to get draft picks
The only reason the Patriots let Tom go to Tampa Bay was that they couldn't wrap them into a tampering charge... this could be Belichick's master plan to get Tampa docked all the draft pictures and to have both Tom and Gronk returned to New England with like three extra third rounders.

View profileThe Ravens' fourth-quarter problems are moving earlier
Historically, the fourth-quarter Ravens have not been a great team. That fourth-quarter Ravens has started to creep its way into the third-quarter Ravens. And I think eventually it's going to keep creeping earlier and earlier in the game. I don't think it's going to get better because the defense does not look good.
Baker Mayfield has a real revenge game against Cleveland
This is like a big Baker revenge spot too. This is not a made-up Baker—I have a perceived slight against me because some team didn't trade for me when I was on the market. This is Baker Mayfield against Stefanski, and they haven't talked since he left Cleveland.
The NFL should reduce the season to 16 games
I'm going to say it. I think that 17 games is too much. I like the scarcity. I like if you brought it back to 16, because the NFL's also been playing this game for a long time where they have to find safer-looking ways to do a dangerous activity.
