NFL 'retreads' like Dan Quinn run the world and usually figure it out on their second stop

Retreads run the world. Retreads run the NFL. Gary Kubiak, John Gruden, Bill Parcells, Tony Dungy, Tom Coughlin, Pete Carroll, Andy Reid, Mike Shanahan, Don Shula. Bill Belichick was a retread when he was hired by the New England Patriots. Dan Quinn, second stop, he's gonna figure it out.

Dan Quinn led the Commanders to a 12-5 record and the NFC Championship game in his first year, validating PFT's point about NFL 'retreads' figuring it out on their second stop.

The Dan Quinn hire is a win-win because the Commanders get better and the Cowboys defense gets worse

Max should be ecstatic about Dan Quinn because at the very least, the Cowboys defense is gonna get worse. Right? Yep. And so if [the Commanders] get better and the Cowboys defense gets worse, I think that's a win-win for both me and you. It's a Quinn, Quinn, Quinn Quinn all around.

The Cowboys defense did regress in 2024, but the Commanders' improvement is still being evaluated under Quinn.

Lamar Jackson should get fat because natural padding helps quarterbacks absorb hits

I think it's good if your quarterback's a little bit chunky, a little bit fat. Yeah. You get it's natural padding. It absorbs some of the hits. Peyton Manning, Tom Brady. These guys weren't in the best shape... Lamar Jackson should get fat.

Lamar Jackson actually leaned out further for the 2024 season to increase his speed.

College football needs a CBA to govern NIL and the transfer portal

I think college football needs a CBA to kind of govern this because it's clear that the federal government is not gonna step in... right now you got a fall transfer portal period, you got a spring transfer portal period... name, image and likeness was put in place just for that. What it has turned into now is free agency.

Whether college football 'needs' a CBA is an opinion about governance structure. While there have been ongoing discussions about NIL regulation and transfer portal rules, a formal CBA has not been implemented.

Duke would have won the National Championship by 50 points if they had reached the final.

I think if Duke plays in the championship game, they win by 50. Easily. That was a wasted opportunity.

This is a hyperbolic counterfactual that cannot be proven, making it subjective.

Michigan is already the favorite to win the National Championship again next season.

Michigan I think is right now the favorites to win next season. Tough to win back to back, but he has to hit the portal. He has to be active... which he already is.

This is a prediction for the next college basketball season.

College basketball is now 'pay to win' and that's unsustainable

It's a pay to win tournament. Like basketball is ruined. Unsustainable. Yeah, that's the new word that I keep hearing.

Subjective opinion about the direction of college sports governance.
