Urban Meyer’s 'college warlord' style will fail with NFL millionaires.

The person that he's bringing in [Chris Doyle], it might've been effective when talking to student athletes in college. When you're talking to millionaires in the NFL, it might not fly the same way... I can also see like a first-time NFL coach that's a big shot used to not having anybody check him ever... coming to the NFL and realizing pretty quickly, 'wow, I can't tell everybody how to do everything all the time.'

Urban Meyer's tenure was defined by his inability to relate to professional players, leading to a locker room revolt and his eventual firing.

Tom Brady putting on a knee brace before getting drunk is genius thinking.

I love the knee brace. I love Tom Brady, like an offensive lineman wearing a preemptive knee brace during a football game. He goes out and gets drunk and he puts a knee brace on before he does it. That's thinking ahead. That's the difference between him and all the other quarterbacks.

This is a subjective appreciation of Brady's habits.

The odds of Tom Brady winning a Super Bowl in any given season are the same as Steph Curry hitting a three-pointer.

Somebody pointed out on Twitter earlier today that the odds of Tom Brady winning a Super Bowl are about the same as the odds of Steph Curry hitting a three-pointer in any given season. Like him taking one shot from three is about the same at the start of the year as Tom Brady winning a Super Bowl. That's crazy to me.

Statistically, Curry is a ~43% career three-point shooter. In the first 20 seasons of his career, Brady won 7 Super Bowls, which is 35%. While not exact, they are remarkably close for comparing a single shot to a full season championship.

I am deeply jealous of every athlete who can look good in a regular T-shirt.

Whenever I see athletes that are just in great shape wearing T-shirts, I'm like, man, I wish I could look that good in a T-shirt. It must be so cool to just be like, I'm going to throw on a T-shirt and look awesome... I'm comfortable saying that I'm very jealous of every athlete who just walks around in a t-shirt and looks awesome.

The Bills could have three or four Super Bowls without kickers

You can make the argument that the Buffalo Bills would have like three or four Super Bowls if kickers weren't a thing in football. You can make the argument that the Patriots might not have had the start of that dynasty if it wasn't for kickers.

The claim is a counterfactual and cannot be definitively verified.

Jalen Hurts will answer the Titans by beating them as a passer

I actually think Jalen Hurts is good enough as a quarterback that when somebody dares him to do that, he could say, 'Fuck you, I will beat you as a quarterback.' And then stay in the pocket and throw for like 300 yards and three touchdowns.

Hurts' passing production against Tennessee will determine this prediction.

The Jaguars would be the second-best team in football if they win in Denver

If they win this game in Denver, I would put them maybe second in the power rankings behind the Jets.

The Jaguars' win and their resulting standing in PFT's power rankings are the relevant conditions; the ranking itself is subjective.
