Takes
I could kick Dan Campbell's and Mike Vrabel's asses in a fight
[Do you think you could kick Dan Campbell's ass?] Yes. And Mike Vrabel also, I'd throw Mike Vrabel in there at the same time... I just can tell you, if you pull 10 wrestlers, they're gonna tell you, take the best wrestler over the best boxer. So it's debatable, but us wrestlers stick together.
Buffalo will never build an indoor stadium
[Do you think that Buffalo would ever get an indoor stadium or would you want a dome?] No. Ever. This is Buffalo, right? And this is what part of what makes us unique... We love it year round. It makes us who we are.
No quarterback who wears a visor has ever won a Super Bowl
The only concern I have about Josh Allen is every year, it seems like he put, he keeps the visor on later and later and no quarterback that's ever worn a visor has won a Super Bowl.
Josh Rosen is putting up terrible stats on purpose as a bit
Josh Rosen... is on the Browns and in classic Josh Rosen fashion, he got in for, I think an entire half. He went seven for 20, for 88 yards. No TDs, no interceptions. I, he has to be doing this on purpose at this point. His stat lines are just so, so predictably exactly what they are every single time... It's a good bit. It really is.
The NFL gave Deshaun Watson an 11-game suspension specifically so his return would be against the Texans
So you look at the schedule that game that [Deshaun Watson] would be coming back would be against the Houston Texans. So they have to talk about it all the time throughout the entire game, whole team in Houston, homecoming... just so happens [flex scheduling] starts right on week 11. I don't know if they'd flex this... but they're not gonna take the Dallas Cowboys out.
The move for NFL preseason betting is to bet against every rookie coach that won their first game
I think the move this weekend is to reverse that and bet against money line every rookie coach that won their first preseason game because they got that win under the belt. Now they're like, you know what? I just wanna evaluate now. Now they're gonna swing back in the other direction.
Joe Burrow has an uncoachable 'it' factor that makes players want to go to war with him
We all knew what was in Joe Burrow from the person that he was, the leader that he was, and the player that he was. He just has that, that 'it' that you can't coach when it comes to football in general... he's that type of dude where you wanna go to war with him any day, any week. The person is the reason why you see the player.
Carson Wentz is the statistically best quarterback ever when the temperature is exactly 73 degrees
In exactly 73 degree weather, Carson Wentz is the number one quarterback of all time in yards per attempt. So you gotta have something like you gotta check your weather app on Sundays. If it's 73 degrees outside, start Terry McLaurin on your fantasy team.
Jahan Dotson has advanced ball skills and tactics that most receivers don't learn until they are veterans
He definitely just has a natural ball skill ability. Like he makes some pretty easy catches that look really easy... he has a good feel of playing the receiver position as a rookie and how to catch the ball, how to position itself to use late hands and some of the tactics that you don't really learn until you're a vet.
Hard Knocks has successfully made me believe in the Detroit Lions
I'm hopeful for Detroit. I think hard knocks has successfully made me believe in the Detroit lions. Now I I'm going to be probably very wrong about that as anyone who's ever rooted for Detroit lions knows, but I'm at that point where like, yeah, I can see, I can see the lines making some noise.
A 9-8 record for the Detroit Lions would be the equivalent of a Super Bowl
If they can get you to believe in the Detroit lines, like even if they just go, if they go nine and eight, that's a super bowl for Detroit. Like what a story that would be.
Zach Wilson will show out in week 15 because Aiden Hutchinson's mother is attractive
Are the jets playing against the lines this year? Because if so, Zach Wilson is absolutely gonna show out in front of his mom... I'm putting the Bon on Zach Wilson on that one. Cuz I know, you know he's at home. He doesn't have anything else to do. He's he's recovering from surgery. He's watching this episode. He's put a big fat circle in week 15.
The NFL purposefully scheduled Christmas Day games to screw over NBA markets
NFL is game, right? They did it so that each market is fucked by the NFL... Celtics, Sixers, Nicks, sons nuggets, Lakers, Mavs... Packers are playing bucks. They just fucked. It's it's so great. They just like, oh, here are your top teams that you're gonna use for Christmas day. We're gonna steal 'em.
Bet on rookie head coaches in the first week of the NFL preseason
Week one, it was pretty strong. You just bet on whatever coach, if it's a matchup between a rookie head coach and a coach that's been in the league before you bet on the rookie head coach to win. Because I think somewhere deep down, they would prefer to win their very first game that they play.
The Ravens are the best preseason football team ever
Bet on the Ravens because Ravens are the best team to ever play preseason football. They're incredible.
Lamar Jackson's 18-pound muscle gain will make him slower
You see Lamar Jackson added 18 pounds of muscle... I feel like he's not gonna be as quick... He looks thicker. I just can't imagine gaining 18 pounds of muscle. Like you can't tell me he's going to be as fast. He has to lose at least a little bit of quickness.
The Steelers have the best three-deep quarterback room in the NFL
I actually think that if you were like, who's got the best three quarterbacks, I think the Steelers are the answer. Rudolph, Trubisky, and Pickett. Like I think if you had to go three deep, I think the Steelers are the answer.
Special teams is the ultimate transitional football play
Special teams is some degree gets a bad rap. It's really the ultimate football play. You take the punt play to me it's the most transitional play in all the football. You have the ball, so you have to protect the punter. And then next thing you transition into a defensive player.
Kicking a field goal down 8 points in the NFC Championship was a terrible idea
Kicking a field goal down eight with two minutes left and the best quarterback of all time on the opposing team in the NFC championship game. Yes. That would be a bad idea. Mathematically and spiritually also just bad vibes from that decision. My goal is to never, ever let that go.
Russell Wilson is built like a dump truck
Russell Wilson... guy's built like a dump truck. He is, he's got a fat ass.
I would consider signing Blake Bortles to the Broncos
I think I need to have a conversation with him [Bortles] and the general manager and the new owners, you know, we can't get crazy here. [Big Cat: I'm gonna hold you to that, I think that was a guarantee.]
The red zone should be called the 'gold zone'
Why does everybody call it the red zone? Why would I wanna stop? I mean you can call it the green zone, but everybody uses that for third down. And if we're talking about money, I want the it's gold zone. I mean, touchdowns give you gold.
The Detroit Lions will be a better football team this year
I think the [Lions] will be better this year, but [Dan Campbell], the way he talks to his team, like the fact that he's always on the verge of crying football guy tears, he's always on the verge of crying. Holy shit, can that guy fire up a team?
Linebackers have become the running backs of the defense
I think that linebackers have kind of become the running backs of the defense where you don't need to pay a right. You don't need to start. Right. And I, in a way, like I missed the old days where it was, you know, like a linebacker centric league.
Mekhi Becton's shattered kneecap could be good for his career
I think maybe this time will do him well, mature, and we'll see him this year. The shattered kneecap could be really good for his NFL career is what I'm trying to say, trying to be optimistic.
Todd Bowles and Mike Zimmer are two of the toughest defensive coaches to play against
I think Todd Bowles has done a good job at that over the years. I think he's a really good coach. What coach Bowles does with the pressure package. Mike Zimmer for a long time was as hard as it came playing against because they had eight up looks... and they had every variation.
The West Coast offense is the most beautiful offense ever created
I grew up in the West Coast offense. West Coast offense, I think is the most beautiful offense ever created. It's very, it's about timing and rhythm and balance and everything makes sense protection wise... It started with Bill Walsh and Montana and Paul Hackett.
Too much pre-snap motion makes it hard for a quarterback to manage tempo
I tell Matt [LaFleur] the same thing. I'm not telling you guys anything I wouldn't tell him. I got after him a day because every freaking play there's God motion. I'm like, can we run one play without a motion so we can get some tempo going? Because I like to switch the tempo... when you have so much motion, it's hard to get tempo going because you always gotta make sure you're set.
Jordan Davis was the best pick of the 2022 NFL Draft
Jordan Davis, that was the pick of the draft. There were actually, I'm gonna put that in the same category as the Ravens, when they just get great players that fall to them. When the Eagles picked [Jordan Davis], I was like, why is he still on the board?
Sean McDermott is a sleeper pick for a fight because of his wrestling background
This one I think is also pretty obvious, but might not be to the naked eye. It's Sean McDermott. He was a back to back national prep champion wrestler, like all time. Good wrestler had a 61 and oh record surrendering just one take down. You get in a fight, how many people that you fighting know how to wrestle?
I will probably retire in 3 or 4 more years
I do think deep down realize this chapter of my life's coming to a close soon. I'm trying to enjoy it a little bit more than when you're 21... [Retire] in three more years. Maybe four.
Bill Belichick would be an elite fighter because he knows pressure points
Bill Belichick. He's a little older now, but Dalton and Roadhouse where he sees all the angles and he sees a guy with a knife in his boot before the knife comes out. I also feel like he's a big time pressure point guy. He could just walk up to you and you'd faceplant.
As soon as the first quarter of the first preseason game is over, I am done with the preseason
Every Hall of Fame game's the exact same... Seeing the field is great. And then you're just like, okay, this kind of sucks. I want the real football. It's very funny. When the first preseason game happens, I'm so excited to watch it. And then as soon as we get through the first quarter, the first preseason game, I'm like just fucking get over with the preseason, I'm done with the preseason.
I still believe in Kyle Sloter as the preseason quarterback of all time
Kyle Sloter, who right now is beating the Raiders three to nothing... He stinks? He's preseason quarterback of all time. The fourth quarter too. There's still the fourth quarter Kyle Sloter. I still believe in him. If you've watched him play, you should believe too.
The Cleveland Browns are the 'rapist franchise' for betting on a light Deshaun Watson sentence
Anytime you're like I'm betting on a sex criminal getting a light sentence. That's the good thing that can happen for me. You're fucked. It's also like betting on Hitler to win World War II. Right? It's like you won, but it's like now you're the rapist franchise. Yeah. Congratulations.
Lamar Jackson has a very high ceiling for his sex life because of how weird he is
Lamar is such a fucking weird guy. I can't even fathom how he fucks. Like him being his own agent is weird, but it could be that kind of thing where it's like a weird guy often has either he can't fuck at all. Or he has top shelf Dick. Right? ... I'm kind of thinking Lamar's got, he's so strange. But when he zeros in on pussy, he goes fucking be on it.
Tua Tagovailoa's stock is a sell because he married his college sweetheart in Miami
He just got married to his college sweetheart. Oh. Which is weird, like far outside of college... Miami. Yeah. Like he went to Miami and then he is like, you know what girl I met in Alabama. Sell your fucking Tua stock. He's sick-fuck wise, that's the nail in the coffin. He's done. He'll be in the CFL in two years.
Doug Peterson fucks with the visor on and is likely a swinger
Doug Peterson, he fucks with the visor on... [Big Cat: He definitely seems like absolutely... leave the garage cracked... come on in, got a hot tub... The whole cul-de-sac is coming to Doug Peterson's house.] He's got like seven different blenders in his room. Like here's my, this is my Thai room here.
Russell Wilson probably invites his trainer to help him with dry reps in the bedroom
I actually think that Russell Wilson probably like cares so much about doing a good job that he would like invite his trainer to help him with... dry reps on the practice field. He probably does that in front of the mirror. Just like fully hard, no partner. Just working on his cross.
Aaron Rodgers will win another Super Bowl because he has something to prove
Rogers... he's fucking for four days straight... And he's got something to prove. He's gonna win another. I know it. Because it just, it's gonna kill me. Because I love just being like, if you have one Super Bowl you have none. No, he's gonna win another.
Kirk Cousins wears three condoms and a dental dam for max protection
Kirk Cousins is like vegan adjacent. He wears three condoms and a dental dam or whatever. Max protection... No flavor whatsoever going on in that fuck session... He's getting head with a condom on. We've gotta be safe.
Pete Carroll has the best sex of any NFL head coach
Pete Carroll has great... probably the best sex of any NFL head coach. But in my mind he's having sex with like a beautiful female version of exactly Pete Carroll. [Stavros: Watching Pete Carroll chew gum would get my pussy drenched.] They're fucking in the rain. He's still got the raincoat on top.
The Kansas City Chiefs will be the 2022 Super Bowl Champions
Super Bowl champion, Kansas City Chiefs, from what we've gone through... it's gonna be Chiefs versus who in the NFC dude, do we, who do we decide? Brady?
I was the first to report that Trevor Penning is a savage
There's this dude I've been watching since early college... Trevor Penning. I kind of feel like one of those guys, like I was following them when they're small. So now basically he just got kicked out of Saints camp for going too hard. He's an absolute animal... now everyone's on it... I was there when he was doing this. Just make sure the internet knows that Billy had it first.
Deshaun Watson is a predator
I will go one more than scumbag. I think Deshaun Watson is a predator. And he's a bad guy, but the problem with how this all shook out is he settled with a lot of the women.
The NFL rigged the first six games of the Browns' schedule for Deshaun Watson
Also NFL rigged: the first six games that they have are the easiest schedule in the league. We mentioned that on the schedule release, that the people were saying look at this, they're setting it up.
Every NFL team should be tampering
I'm saying everyone should tamper in the NFL. Why not fucking go for it? If you're not tampering, you're not trying.
The New York Jets are an absolute wagon this year
My hot seat is the AFC East today. I visited Jets camp and I have to say they are all totally on the hot seat because the Jets are an absolute wagon. And their offense looked electric. Seriously.
Elijah Moore is a step above everybody else in the NFL
I saw [Elijah Moore] today in person and he was making grabs all over the field. It was like, that guy is a different kind of player. Like he's a step above everybody else.
I'm betting the Jaguars over their win total because Urban Meyer is gone
I think I might sell myself on the Jaguars this year. Like take their win total over just by Urban Meyer not being there. I think the Jaguars are gonna get a bounce just by not having that fucking asshole around finger of the year... I think I'm gonna buy the Jaguars. I'm calling my shot right now.
