T.J. Watt will be a better player than me if he stays healthy

If he stays healthy and, and I, I hope he stays healthy and I hope he does. He'll break every record I got and he'll absolutely be a better player than me. There's no doubt for a single season, for a single, like being able to do everything. I I I won't give up that title.

The Buffalo Bills will reach at least one Super Bowl during the Josh Allen window

Andy Reid will coach the Chiefs for at least five more years

He is the greatest quarterback of all time. I know that there's now debates going around... Tom Brady was seven and three. I don't think anyone will ever win seven Super Bowls again.

Maybe it's like one of those things where... Mahomes will put up the numbers and Burrow might win the titles.

I will root for Aaron Rodgers to win a Super Bowl the moment he leaves the Packers

If Aaron Rodgers goes anywhere else, I will root for him to win a Super Bowl.

The minute he's gone, it would be very funny if he won a Super Bowl with another team.

Dan Quinn will be a head coach again and he's gonna go like eight and eight, then he's gonna go five and 11. Then he is gonna go five 11 again, get fired. Then he's gonna go somewhere, went to a Super Bowl and be the best coordinator in the league again.

Seahawks fans will eventually cheer Russell Wilson in a few years once the rawness of his departure fades

I think if this game took place at any point, other than this year and especially week one, it might be a little different. So if Russell Wilson plays for eight more years and he comes back to Seattle at the end of his career, I think they will cheer him. I think it's just so raw... The rawness of it, the fact that it was week one, I think that if it happens... eight years from now or say, let's even say Russ goes somewhere else... I think they might be a little bit more receptive to 'em and be like, Hey, that was cool when you won us a Super Bowl.

I've my, my statement has simply been that he will, his career will be there by the end... mass, Sanford's going to end up like top six all time and passing. So, and he's also going to, no, one's saying that he's right now, if he retired, he would be a hall of Famer... My argument was always under the assumption that he plays until he's, I don't know, like 38, 39.

It all depends how much longer Matthew intends to play. And if he gets that ring out, he's out there. You know, if he goes out there and lights it up and has consecutive, like three, four or five consecutive winning seasons, even if he don't win the Super Bowl, I think he has a chance.
