Takes

Aaron Rodgers might be washed because Davante Adams chose to play with Matthew Stafford over waiting for him

That also might mean that Aaron Rogers could be washed. Because Davante Adams [to the] Rams. Wouldn't you think he would be like, oh, I'm gonna wait to see where Rogers goes. And he is like, no, I'd actually rather just go with Stafford.

The Commanders fleeced the 49ers in the Deebo Samuel trade

Right. Where I think that's, that's where it's gonna to They're gonna be, they're gonna be contenders. They're, they're gonna be guys that are going have giving Josh Allen a problem.

The NFL will eventually sell a 12 to 16-game international broadcast package

NFL pass rushers will receive significantly more money in free agency than people are expecting

I think these guys are gonna get more money than people are expecting... The Eagles help make the pass rushers more money in this free age market.

Patrick Mahomes will only return to one or two more Super Bowls in his career

It's NFL is hard. It's hard to stay healthy. It's hard to get back. You, we've talked to all these, but they quarterbacks and pros where it's like, you know, it's a constant error. I'm on the show. You never know. Probably one or two.

Drake Maye will win a Super Bowl before Patrick Mahomes wins another one

Who wins the Super Bowl first? Drake Maye. Okay.

No team will ever get back to the Super Bowl for a three-peat attempt again.

I don't know if we'll ever have a team get back to a third Super Bowl going for a three-peat... I'd like to bet extremely against it. Never ha ever happened. Same. I I'll put that bet in. [The bet is] 10 grand. It's never gonna happen.

Josh Allen will eventually win a Super Bowl

I think [Josh Allen] will win a Super Bowl eventually, but we're, we're, the, somebody is gonna be left without a chair... I would worry about for Josh is if, because I think he'll beat the Chiefs in the playoffs one time. He's too good.

Josh Allen will beat the Chiefs in the playoffs exactly one time in his career.

I think [Josh Allen] will beat the Chiefs in the playoffs one time. He's too good and they're, the games are too close. Is it going to be hard psychologically to then recalibrate and be like, that wasn't the Super Bowl? But I think he'll beat the Chiefs in the playoffs one time.

The Eagles have a better roster than the Commanders at almost every position except for quarterback

The under-talked-about key to the Bills' success is their offensive line

The Bills offensive line I think has played fantastic all year. Yeah, I think that's really the under talked about part of, you know, we see all the chatter now with Buffalo. People say we don't have weapons... well your offensive line is probably, aside from Josh Allen, your best offensive weapon.

Josh Allen will have to hit deep go balls against the Chiefs' man coverage to win

Josh has played really efficient... That being said, and if you look at the last game with Kansas City, he's gonna have to hit some go balls down the sideline. They play a lot of man coverage. Amari Cooper was involved in that first game. He's gonna have to be involved again.

Lamar Jackson will eventually win a Super Bowl

I want to say here and now because I believe that Lamar will win a Super Bowl at some point... I just think he'll win a Super Bowl when he wins a Super Bowl. I'm not saying if, when he wins a Super Bowl for the Ravens.

CJ Stroud will rush for over 14.5 yards in the Divisional Round against the Chiefs.

I like CJ Stroud over 14.5 rushing yards. I like that a lot too. Last week that hit... CJ can run. He can use his feet. I think he'll do it again.

Khalil Shakir is the Bills' true number one receiver and their most important weapon on the outside.

I would never bet against Sean McVay in the playoffs

I think the Vikings should win, but I also think that Sean McVay and that's the end of that sentence. I just think Sean McVay, I would not bet against him in the playoffs.

If the Giants draft a good quarterback, everything will change very quickly for the franchise.

If you're a Giants fan, if you draft a good quarterback, things can all change very quickly for you. Because with the whole Daniel Jones thing, it was like an escalating, snowballing series of bad decisions that were all kind of based on the fact that you did not know if you had a good quarterback.

JJ McCarthy will end up being the best quarterback from the 2024 draft class

Lincoln Riley could succeed in Chicago as Caleb Williams' offensive coordinator, but not as head coach

The 2001 NFL Draft class will eventually have 10 Hall of Famers

Travis Hunter will be drafted as a cornerback and only used as a part-time 'spot' wide receiver in the NFL

I think when he gets drafted, [Hunter], they will draft him as a corner. And they would spot play him as a wide receiver. Because if he gets on a pro team, he can legitimately be your best corner, but he's probably gonna be your third best receiver.

Ben Johnson will be a superstar head coach, the next Bill Walsh

Ben Johnson's gonna be a superstar, in my opinion, maybe the next Bill Walsh. Like, so to me if you could add him... I think this kid right here has a chance to be outstanding like hall of fame type guy. I know the way he prepares, I know all that type of stuff.

Caleb Williams is a generational talent

This is a generational talent. He really is. When he throws the ball on time, inside of three seconds he's in the top three in the league in QBR... I think the kid is gonna be a phenomenal kid... with the skillset he has, man, I'm telling you like I think he's gonna be a superstar in the league. I really do.

Drake Maye is going to be a superstar

Coach Gruden on the stream also was asked him about Caleb Williams or Drake Maye. And he said Drake Maye. Drake Maye is gonna be a superstar. Patriots have looked good... I think Drake Maye is very good. We're gonna talk about it actually more and I said something about Drake Maye that is a very high compliment.

Drake May might actually be a better quarterback than Jayden Daniels and Caleb Williams

There's another car that has shown up to the race that is showing that it could be faster than all the other cars. [Drake May]... I'm starting to believe. I just want to win races. But that's the thing, like winning, winning races against shitty cars doesn't matter. You want to beat the good cars.

I could see the Chargers going to the Super Bowl in the next three years.

I think I said AFC Championship in the next three years. I believe that. I mean, [Justin] Herbert's doing this with not like, it's not like he has an insane cast of characters.

Matthew Stafford is a first-ballot Hall of Famer

I think he's a first battle hall of famer, man. He's a stud... I feel like he's like a Aaron [Rodgers] and [Mahomes] hybrid where like he gets that pop that, that Aaron got. But he also has been changing arm angles and doing No looks back in Detroit 10, 15 years ago.

Malik Willis will get a massive 'Matt Flynn' style contract from another team

Malik Willis is just a good quarterback now... [He] is going to, he's gonna probably get another shot somewhere. He's gonna get a nice contract. Yeah. He might Matt Flynn this thing.

I can successfully kick a 44-yard field goal with two months of training.

I think I can get to 44 yards if I give myself two months of training. Hank dunking, me kicking a 44 yard field goal. I'm gonna try to work the leg back up.

The Giants should keep Brian Daboll even if the season goes poorly

I think that Daboll is a good head coach. I don't think that they should fire him after this season. I think 'cause you have to make the choice. Right. Do do you clean house, maybe get a new quarterback and a new head coach at the same time? Or do you keep the same guy around and give him at least a couple years to work with your new quarterback? I actually like Brian Daboll enough to say that he should be their head coach.

The Commanders' Super Bowl window is officially open.

I will announce that the Super Bowl window for the Commanders is officially open. This is the start of the Super Bowl window. Wow. We're not a Super Bowl winning team this year. I'm not thinking soupy this year, but I know when I see it, we have a Super Bowl window. We got a fuck load of cap space. we have a great quarterback. An awesome quarterback.

Jerry Jones has already won his last Super Bowl.

Imagine telling Jerry Jones in 1995 you've won your last Super Bowl. That's what he's facing right now.

Buy stock in the Washington Commanders for the next 3-5 years

If the NFL was a stock market... [I'm buying] Washington. I wouldn't have said that prior to this year... I can't tell you how high I am on this quarterback [Jayden Daniels]. It's been a long time since I've been that high on a young quarterback.

Mike Evans is a lock for the Hall of Fame and could finish top five all-time in touchdowns

Mike Evans... is gonna go down like top five six in touchdowns and receiving yards. He's just so consistently awesome. Mike Evans deserves all the credit in that respect.

Derrick Henry might be the last running back to reach 10,000 career yards

Derrick Henry is 17, 18 yards away from 10,000 yards. He could be the last running back we see get 10,000 yards. ... The only answer that I'm looking at ... is possibly Jonathan Taylor. 'cause he's got, he's halfway there.

I want to play in the NFL until I'm 45

I wanna play as long as I possibly can... at 45 [my kids] would be in high school. I, I'd love to say I'd still be playing at that point. But, you know, the situation might have to be exactly right.

Jayden Daniels will win a Super Bowl in the next five years

Anthony Richardson's poor decision-making suggests he might not be 'the guy' for the Colts

I've seen a lot of bad quarterback play in my day. That [interception] should be a play that you should file away as one that's like, is he the guy? Probably not.

Starting Justin Herbert with a high ankle sprain against the Steelers was a mistake

I don't know why they started Justin Herbert in this game... I feel like that was maybe a mistake... I thought maybe just sit him out, try to win that game with Taylor Heinicke... because this is gonna linger now.

Bryce Young's tenure has officially established the floor for how short a quarterback can be

It unfortunately probably puts the limit on height. Now he's officially the floor. We've reached it. We pushed it with Russell Wilson... then Kyler Murray, I think Bryce Young is now the floor of how short you can be as a quarterback.

The worst case scenario for the Bears is a week 18 playoff loss to the Packers followed by a Green Bay Super Bowl win

The worst thing could happen for me... week 18 chance to make the playoffs against the Packers and he [Caleb Williams] does his nails and then like epically lose and Jordan Love goes and wins the Super Bowl. Yeah, that would be pretty bad. Like the Packers, maybe it's week 18, the Lions have already clinched the NFC North. So it's week 18 for the last wild card spot. And then the Packers get it and go on a run and win the Super Bowl with our wild card spot.

Dak Prescott will be the NFL's 'Least Improved Player' in 2024
