Takes
The Green Bay Packers are the Vietnam of the NFL because they only use homegrown talent and no one wants to play there.
My team is the Packers. They are Vietnam. And simply because... all homegrown talent. They don't make a lot of splashy moves. You really don't want to go play there. You're never going to like, you're never like, Oh, I want to go play at Lambeau. I want to go play, you know, have a war in Vietnam.
The New England Patriots are the Russia of the NFL because of the spying and the 'Cold War.'
Russia and the Patriots, right? It's a natural fit. It's the cold war. They're spying on us. Patriots, Spygate, it's a perfect melange of the two. I don't think that you can find actually a better fit than that.
Roger Goodell is the best commissioner the NFL has ever seen
I actually wanna do the opposite of killed Goodell. I want to make sure Goodell stays in power forever. 'cause I love what he's done to the Patriots and he's just like a personal hero of mine. I think that he's, he's the best commissioner of the league's ever seen.
The Colts should have fired Chuck Pagano and kept Bruce Arians as head coach in 2012
My application to Bleacher Report was saying that the coach should fire Chuck Pagano and keep Bruce Arians as their head coach. And this was a season that he had cancer... And I was like, this is a results league and Arians is, is carrying the team and Chuck Pagano is costing them a fortune in medical bills.
Chris Jones' NFL Combine wardrobe malfunction will ultimately work in his favor
Everyone knows his name. I think that that actually is gonna work in his favor. This is probably the best possible way to let the whole world know. Like, hey, it is, I'm just, I'm about to become an NFL player, make millions of dollars and Oh yeah. Did you see my [genitals] flop out of the pants?
Chris Jones should embrace his NFL Combine wardrobe malfunction and market himself as the 'big dick guy'
I think he needs to just run with us and totally embrace it and always be the guy with a big dick... show up to press conferences wearing like extremely tight [jeans]... capitalize on it and market himself as the big dick guy. Like he's, there's money to be made out there.
Quarterbacks with broken feet are only 'hurt' and should still play because you don't throw with your foot
There's a difference between being hurt and being injured. Anyone who's ever played high school football knows that. If you have a broken foot and you're a quarterback, you should still get out there and play. You're only hurt because you don't throw with your foot. You throw with your hips, you throw with your eyes.
Chris Jones' combine wardrobe malfunction was an all-time bad moment for white guys
Chris Jones at the combine, his [package] flop out at the end of his 40 run, which by the way... that was an all time bad moment for white guys because we were like, is that guy like, is he hard or something? That's not only his at rest perspective.
Chris Jones' physical endowment is a hate crime against white people
I think you could make the claim that it was maybe a hate crime against white people that that he looked so physically well endowed that his package straight up burst through his shorts while he was running.
Dan Campbell might be the first interim head coach to win a Super Bowl
I personally think [Dan Campbell] might be the first interim head coach to win a Super Bowl.
Interim head coaches are the best part of the NFL
Interim head coaches are without a doubt the best part of the NFL.
Jesus was an interim head coach who succeeded like Bill Belichick
Jesus got a start as an interim head coach and it was kind of a Monte Kiffin, Lane Kiffin type situation. God hired his son, let him operate as a coordinator for a while until he proved himself. You got to say it did work out for him in the long term, kind of like a Bill Belichick, Cleveland Browns, Patriots type deal. Ended up in a great position in the long run.
Dan Campbell shot his load too fast as interim coach
The problem with a guy like Dan is sometimes you come and you shoot your load too fast. On his first day on the job, he put his team through Oklahoma drills. But on day one, he also did the practice squad player sacrifice. Now, that puts you in a day two dilemma when your team comes in with their hair on fire.
Throw away the red no-contact jerseys — all lives matter on my football team
I'd also take the red no-contact shirts that the quarterbacks and the kickers wear. I'd throw them in the trash. We don't discriminate on my football team. All lives matter. If you can't handle your contact, then I can't handle your contract.
If you're swallowing you're wallowing — players shouldn't need water breaks
I turn off the water supply of the building, too. If you're swallowing, you're wallowing. I want players who don't need water breaks. It's also an unnecessary expense, and the owner will be very appreciative of my cost-cutting efforts.
Rob Ryan has been robbed of an interim head coaching opportunity
The biggest shock in the world to me, looking down the history of interim head coaches, the fact that Rob Ryan has never gotten the title of interim head coach. Despite being the defensive coordinator for such stable franchises as the Raiders, the Browns, and the Cowboys, he has never gotten a shot at being an interim head coach. And that's because he's too much of a wild card to ever be an interim head coach.
Masturbation strike until Rob Ryan gets an interim head coaching opportunity
I am personally willing to put my money where my mouth is for a Rob Ryan head coaching tenure. I'm ready to go on a masturbation strike until Rob Ryan gets at least an interim head coaching opportunity. No Rob, no rub. That's a fact. It's quite literally the least I could do.
J.J. Watt's illness is only a hurt — having the flu is an advantage
If you're sick enough to tell your coach that you can't play, in my book, then you're healthy enough to get out there, strap it up, and play. In fact, I'd say having the flu would technically be an advantage. If I'm a coach, I tell my running back, I say, son, you get that ball, you grab onto it, you cough directly onto the ball every time and let the defense see you cough. That way, if you fumble it, they're going to be a little freaked out and they're not going to want to recover it straight up.
Kids should preemptively tear their ACLs like a Tommy John procedure
If a running back was born without two knee ligaments, then they wouldn't have had their entire life to become over-reliant on their knee ligaments, and they'd actually be fine. So what I'm advocating is almost like a Tommy John type deal. It's an operation for the young kids. You preemptively tear both your ACLs, and so then that way they have more time to unlearn the bad habits that you get from playing on healthy knees before you become a pro.
Johnny Manziel is locker room cancer — he is injured
I just don't like the cut of this guy's jib, folks. He's locker room cancer. Not only is he injuring himself with his bad decisions, but he's injuring the entire rest of the team, infecting them with locker room leukemia. He is injured.
Being 6-0 isn't impressive because every team has been undefeated at some point
A lot of people forget that at some point this year, every single team has been undefeated. So is 6-0 really that impressive for you guys?
NFL players should get 'chubbed up' in the locker room to send a message of dominance to the rest of the league
I think it's almost like you got your inspiration from that one scene in Any Given Sunday when you've got the guy in the background in the shower and you can tell he's chubbed up a little bit because he knows that the camera's going to be. That's what you guys need to do, just to send a strong message to the rest of the AFC that you guys are for serious now.
Offensive linemen would be more effective if they were 5'8" because of the pad level advantage
I think I might be a little bit better if I were to be 5'8". That way you can really get underneath guys and really drive them out of the hole. 6'5 is sometimes a disadvantage... it's a liability sometimes.
Andy Dalton is 'no doubt' an elite quarterback
I definitely – [Dalton] is no doubt elite. I don't think it's much of a question about Joe Flacco being elite, but he is definitely an elite quarterback.
Andy Dalton is elite and we're past the Joe Flacco debate
I can sense that paradigm shift as well. We're not talking so much about Joey anymore. We're talking about Andy. Is he elite? 6-0 sounds pretty good, but I'm a what have you done for me in September, what have you done for me through January kind of guy.
NFL pros shouldn't have contact with college teams if college players can't contact pros
I'm of the mindset that if you're in college and you're not allowed to have any contact whatsoever with a professional team or an agent, then when you're a professional, you should not have any contact with your college team or you should not be able to take a class or learn anything really.
NFL teams should scrimmage during the bye week to keep working
Teams should do a full contact scrimmage on Sunday during the bye week at any rate just to keep the work going.
Adam Jones would be an ideal quarterback because he wouldn't let anyone else touch the ball
I would say Adam Jones would be the quarterback for nothing else, that he wouldn't let anybody else have the ball. I would say that's probably why he would be the quarterback.
Andy Dalton would be a game-changing middle linebacker and defensive tone-setter
I think you'd really got to put Andy Dalton in the middle linebacker. He's really the tone setter of the team. And I think to really put him in the middle of the field to make all the calls and checks, I think that's just a real game changer.
Andy Dalton's red hair gives the Bengals an unfair competitive advantage
His hair seems to be almost more red than it was last year. Like he's doubling down on his Dalton. Do you think it's unfair that Andy Dalton has something different than any other quarterback in the NFL? There's no way that you can game plan for that. What are you going to put in on scout team? Are you going to hire one of the guys from Pete and Pete to be a situational scout team player so that you can prepare for that on Sunday?
The correct touchdown dance is handing the ball to the ref and acting like you've been there before
Both are incorrect answers. The answer is you hand the ball to the official and you act like you've been there before.
Christians are empirically more successful NFL players than any other denomination
Based on empirical evidence, Christians are much more successful NFL players than any other denomination. You've never heard a quarterback thank Satan for winning the Super Bowl. The NFL stands for Never Faithless. And guess what? Jesus is the leading receiver of all time.
Arian Foster should convert to Christianity to improve his play
Arian Foster is a noted atheist. If there's one thing that God hates more than the devil, it's people like Foster who don't have the courage to believe in anything beyond the nose on their face.

DeAngelo Williams needs to understand America cares about his highlights on the field, not in his hair
What DeAngelo Williams needs to understand is that America cares more about the highlights he puts on the field than the highlights he puts in his hair.
The NFL needs an awareness month for fans who don't have cancer
I think at the same token, the NFL needs to also have an awareness month for their fans who don't have cancer, to be fair.
Brady's pee is excellence — getting peed on by him means second base with Gisele
If you look at Brady's piss, on the other hand, Brady's piss consists primarily of excellence. And plus, with the transitive property of genitalia, if Brady pees on my hands, then I've technically gotten to second base with Giselle. So, gotta lean Brady on this one.
More players should pull a John Elway and refuse to play for anyone but their hometown team
I don't know why more players don't come from college and pull a John Elway and pull themselves out of the draft and refuse to play for any other team except the one that is closest geographically to their hometown. That's what I would do. I guess I'm a little bit more old-fashioned than most people.
Water makes you weak — real football players do swish and spit
When I was a high school football player, I used to always tell the underclassmen that water makes you weak. So we do like swish and spit.
