Billy FootballMalik Willis threw the ball 73.72 yards at the NFL Combine
Doing some Pythagoras theorem on Malik Willis' absolute gigantic throw. So he threw it 60 yards down the field. But if you [calculate] the hypotenuse of how actually far you threw in a straight line, it got out to 73.72.
Billy FootballDesmond Ridder has 'fuckable spirals'
Desmond Ridder has nice spiral, Cincinnati guy. He gives me Justin Herbert type vibes... fuckable spirals for fuckable spirals. If you see a spiral, you're like, damn that spiral sexy.
Jake MarshMike McDaniel will save Tua Tagovailoa's career
Dolphins hired a new head coach, Mike McDaniel. Watch that clip of his, he seems very media friendly guy, big personality. He's going to save Tua [Tagovailoa].
Big CatThe NFC is wide open for the next few years
Tom Brady just retired. Aaron Rodgers may go to the AFC who the fuck knows where he's going to end up. Like the NFC is going to be wide open for a little bit.
PFT CommenterThe Rams are the first team ever to play a Super Bowl in their own home stadium
This could be the first Superbowl ever slayed by a team in its own home stadium. It's the Rams. Make it to the Superbowl. It's never been done before.
Big CatAny head coach the Bears hire will fail because the organization is broken
I've come to a bad realization with it—with my wisdom in life—is that it's not the coach. It's the organization. Like whoever gets hired is going to fail because the organization will fail them... 90% chance will fail because the Bears are broken, terrible organization.
Big CatTrent Dilfer was coaching hard, not committing physical assault in his viral high school video
I hate the argument you never put your hands on a player it's like grabbing a guy by shoulder, grabbing him by the elbow. Come on. Are we really going to get upset about that. Obviously, if it's like punching choking... this, there was no malicious intent in this.
Billy FootballSam Ehlinger would have beaten out Trevor Lawrence for the starting job if not for his injury

Youngstown BobThe Browns will win exactly 11 games in the 2021 season
I'm thinking 11 wins, regular season, nothing crazy.
PFT CommenterMike Vrabel builds teams based solely on player girth and size
I think I've figured out what Mike Vrabel's strategy is here... He's just trying to get the biggest dudes that he can possibly get his hands on. I think that he has the biggest starting 11, just mass-wise. He is Billy Football as a coach. He just wants pounds. And Julio Jones is a massive dude.
HankTim Tebow was signed by Urban Meyer purely to act as a heat shield for Trevor Lawrence
I'm also just a huge fan of the narrative that [Urban Meyer] brought in Tebow just to take off heat off Trevor Lawrence... Tebow is just going to be too much of a natural leader and take all the heat, including from the players, off Trevor Lawrence.
Big CatUrban Meyer is trying to recreate his Florida Gators teams by moving Travis Etienne to wide receiver.
Urban Meyer is just that report that Travis Etienne is taking reps as only a wide receiver... He's trying to create Percy Harvin. I understand what he's doing, I think... He just wants to recreate the Florida team.
PFT CommenterNFL wide receivers wearing single-digit numbers is a 'there goes the neighborhood' moment
The NFL is just, I guess, giving clearance to wide receivers to wear single-digit numbers... It's a major There Goes the Neighborhood moment. I think it's going to happen. Peter King leaked it out, and when Peter King has a scoop like that, it's Roger Goodell just being like, Peter, you are my trial balloon.
Big CatThe viral video of Cam Newton getting heckled was a PR setup
I'm woke on this Cam Newton clip... It almost feels like that was kind of set up to remind everyone how awesome Cam Newton was. We'll put out a video of Cam getting disrespected so that people are forced to recall how great he is at football. Because you're right. This is the most sympathetic press Cam Newton's got in the last year.
PFT CommenterCam Newton isn't fully healthy because he didn't swing on the heckling kid
That's actually what's telling me that Cam Newton isn't healthy. Because if he was, he should have just swung on the kid. Where somebody's being that disrespectful... Cam, you should be able to defend yourself.
HankThe Vince Lombardi Trophy should be renamed the Tom Brady Trophy
Vince Lombardi only won one. You're so greedy, Hank. It's true. He won one trophy. He won one Vince Lombardi trophy. Tom Brady's won seven. Like, come on. ... It's a crime that the championship trophy isn't named after Tom Brady.

PFT CommenterBill Belichick will sign Earl Thomas to replace Patrick Chung
Maybe this belcheck move. Maybe Belichick picks him up. They lost Patrick Chung for the year. They get real Thomas as like an impact veteran that everybody else has given up on
Big CatAlex Smith looks like he still can't play football despite being cleared
He doesn't look like he can play football. His leg. I think I could play football better than he could play football. I don't he couldn't he couldn't avoid the rush of his five-year-old spraying like Dasani on them and then they put out pictures of his leg and it's like to see turbine not well his leg is in basically a Forever cast right now.
Big CatMike Glennon is the perfect quarterback for people to use in Kaepernick comparison tweets

Big CatI'm unloading on Mitchell Trubisky whenever the game temperature is exactly 66 degrees
Mr. Trubisky has by far the highest quarterback rating in the NFL when it's exactly 66 degrees... I'm absolutely going to open up my weather app every single Sunday morning. And if it's 66, I'm unloading on Mitchell Trubisky.
Billy FootballSwag Kelly is the second-fastest quarterback in the NFL

Billy FootballBill Belichick has always wanted a mobile quarterback to experiment with new offensive schemes
Belichick's always talking about how he wants a mobile quarterback... belch I was like, I want to get rid of you [Brady] and get a cool new toy that can run around. So like the football like porn that's going to come out of this like the X's and O's and blocking schemes... Bellatrix brain with like a mobile quarterback.
Big CatRoger Goodell will use a technicality to prevent Dave Portnoy from documenting the auction-won MNF game
I think they're going to figure out a technicality, right?... if he [Goodell] just had to sit with Goodell with no content being made. That's actually the ultimate own back on Dave. You just have to sit with this miserable person for an entire night and listen to him talk... and you can't make content out of it. That would kill Dave.
PFT CommenterLeaked Wonderlic scores are a smokescreen designed to hurt Tua Tagovailoa's draft stock
They were also incorrect leaked Wonderlic scores all that which tells me it's smokescreen season for someone out there. Like someone wants the rest of the NFL to believe that Tua is dumb because they gave Tua a 13 in the first Wonderlic score. It's not true at all. That's not what he got.
PFT CommenterI am officially back on the Tua Tagovailoa train now that the lefty witchcraft is gone
Watching [Tua Tagovailoa] throw with an NFL ball looks good. Like the witchcraft is gone or whatever... I think it goes from looking like it's spinning clockwise to looking like it's spinning counterclockwise now that it has the stripes off. So I'm fully on board the Tua train.
Big CatThe NFL has audio from the Miles Garrett/Mason Rudolph incident but is refusing to release it.
The NFL should just they have to have they've got out here. Now, they know they've got audio... I think the NFL had audio because you'll remember they have audio that they play like every Tuesday on Showtime... and their excuse was they have a guy who pushes a button to stop recording in between plays. That doesn't exist.

He said he's not going anywhere in the advertisement, and then a report came out today that the Patriots are willing to pay him $30 million a year... I feel good about Brady coming back.
PFT CommenterI'm only joining an XFL team if I have a real chance to make the roster
The practice squad offer is apparently legit. Like I'm going to get a contract if I want to go down that road... in which case I'm only going down that road if they give me an opportunity to work my way onto a team. I'm not just going to be on practice squad a year.
PFT CommenterJosh McDaniels staying in New England is a beta move
Josh McDaniels is back in New England... He brought his wife with him to his interview. Kind of a beta move... Apparently, they went out for lunch at some country club with Haslam... and it was a guys-only place. So his wife had to go out to lunch [elsewhere].

My official prediction was one random loss, like one fluke loss in the regular season. ... They could lose a regular season game and then go 18-1 [and win the Super Bowl].
Big CatUrban Meyer will definitely coach football again
My who's back is Urban Meyer because Urban Meyer said he misses football. Oh, you think? That actually could just be that because he's definitely going to coach. So shout out all the people who said that he actually was retiring for real this time. You're an idiot.
HankJosh Gordon will be on the Patriots for the entire 2019 season
He's [been suspended] for zero weeks. [How many weeks will he be on the team?] All of them. [If he gets cut or leaves] Hank gets a cat.
Big CatThe Derek Carr media hype machine is funny because we know he isn't a superstar
The Derek Carr media hype machine that's trying to get behind a guy who we really know who he is, and that's not a terrible quarterback, but he's not a superstar quarterback, is very, very funny to me. Because they're basically trying to wheel themselves into Derek Carr as our starter.

PFT CommenterAdam Gase is the most paranoid person in the world and hiring him is a massive mistake
One other high-level evaluator with a different team said that this is the biggest mistake anyone in the NFL has made in years. Gase is crazy. He's the most paranoid person in the world. This will be like Todd Haley on crack.

Big CatRyan Fitzpatrick is the perfect Dolphins quarterback because he provides 'Fitzmagic' wins during a rebuild
I don't think there's been a more perfect move in the history of the NFL than Ryan Fitzpatrick going to the Dolphins... Ryan Fitzpatrick is like the perfect, we can rebuild, but he'll give us four or five wins that will be awesome to watch so people don't get so pissed off about the team sucking.
PFT CommenterIf the US prioritized rugby, we would be the best football country in the world
At this point, if the U.S. took our best rugby players from a young age and taught them football, we would be the best football country in the world. That's how good our rugby team is.
PFT CommenterTom Brady is a prisoner of his own success because of his extreme superstitions
Tom Brady's success is so successful and won so many Super Bowls, how many little things like this do you think he does in a day-to-day basis where he's like, well, it's helped me get to where I'm at? He's basically stuck in the most superstitious life of all time... He's permanently stuck upside down because he keeps winning Super Bowls... He's a prisoner of his own success.
