Takes

The Patriots will beat the Seahawks 27-20 in the Super Bowl

I'm going 27-20... because the reason I'm taking New England is I've done these games for 14 years now and no other season was there a game where they let go of the rope and they got blown out.

The Cleveland Browns will cover the 10-point spread against the Buffalo Bills

I do like the bills, but I think the Browns might cover... I like the Browns at the very least in the first half of this game. I like 'em to cover 10 points.

Alabama is capable of winning the National Championship this year

Can [Alabama] win a championship? I think yes, they can. Every team that's made the playoffs, they're deserving of it and they have an opportunity to win it. You just gotta go out and make the plays you need to make to win.

Detroit got their mojo back and looked like the efficient team they were earlier in the season

I feel like Detroit kind of got their mojo back a little bit and like, 'Hey, we're not going out without a fight.' Detroit didn't make those mistakes. Detroit didn't turn the ball over.

I am 60% sure Jayden Daniels will not play against the Vikings.

I still don't know [if Jayden Daniels is playing]. ... I'm at like 60% that he's not gonna play. ... Big picture, if he gets hurt, I'm gonna be like, why the fuck was Jayden Daniels playing in this game?

Colts -4.5 vs. Texans is a suspiciously low line that favors the Colts

I'm gonna take the Colts minus four and a half. I feel like the, that that's, that's a field goal line. Why is it four and a half? They know something.

Georgia is in the best possible position because they can get a playoff bye without playing the SEC championship game

The winner number one is Georgia, because Georgia obviously beats Texas. They get to four. Georgia's in that perfect spot where they could potentially not go to the SEC championship game and have a buy. Which that's gotta be the greatest spot you could ever be in.

I am not worried about the Panthers catching the Bucs in the NFC South

I'm not worried about the Panthers... Somebody's gotta win the South. It's not exactly the most competitive division. So hopefully we can go ahead and lock that down.

The Ravens are fully back

Ravens 27, Vikings 19. Ravens are back, fully back. Fully, fully back, fully back... Their defense, it really is their defense. They fixed it.

The Raiders' Week 7 loss was Andy Reid's first regular season shutout in 427 career games.

Fun fact, that was actually Andy Reid's first regular season shutout 427 career games coached. ... Thirty's an important number because the Chiefs had 31 first downs. The Raiders had three.

The Chiefs are definitely going to the Super Bowl and likely winning it again.

The Chiefs are so good. We said it a couple weeks ago. They're winning the Super Bowl, at least getting to the Super Bowl. I stand by that.

The Chiefs are going to win the Super Bowl

Raiders Chiefs, Chiefs are gonna win the Super Bowl. Chiefs are minus 11 and a half... Their offense is humming.

I love the Seahawks in this game... I feel like there might be a little let down [for the Jags]... Seahawks need to win... you'll get a very strong effort from the Seahawks.

The Lions are a scary, complete football team

Lions 34, Browns 10. This is why the Lions are so scary. Because this was such a let down spot... Browns have a good defense. Doesn't matter. They'll just fucking work you and work you with their defense. Work you with their offense. The Lions are a complete football team.

Patrick Mahomes is still the best quarterback in the NFL and the Chiefs are probably going back to the Super Bowl

Patrick Mahomes is still the best quarterback in the NFL and [the Chiefs] are probably going to the Super Bowl. He spread the ball around perfectly... they're gonna be in the AFC championship game at minimum.

The Giants defense will be ferocious and cause problems for the league

Joe Burrow will win NFL MVP

I'm taking Joe Burrow this year. Joe Burrow's my pick.

Daniel Jones will be serviceable for the Colts and can win eight games

Daniel Jones, when I say he is gonna be good, I, I would be shocked if he was like a, a pro bowl level quarterback, but I think he could be serviceable... I don't think he's going to be one of the better quarterbacks in the AFC, but I do think he could be good enough to win like eight games.

Matthew Stafford will miss a few games this season due to injury

I think [Matthew Stafford] can start and finish the season, but I think he'll probably miss a couple games inside the season.

The Buccaneers at -110 to win the NFC South is a good bet

I think the Tampa Bay Bucks minus one 10 to win the NFC South is a good bet. I like their offense a lot. I know Tristan Wirfs is out for probably four weeks, but he'll be back.

Scottie Scheffler's son Bennett might be a 'Boss Baby' mastermind giving him golf tips

Is there a chance Bennett is a boss baby and he's actually giving you all the tips of the golf game? ... I saw the one where he was like, what? This is impressive. We do this every Sunday. He might be boss baby.

I am officially retiring from participating in physical sports challenges

My fire fest is pretty simple. My body is broken. I'm, I'm too old for some of this shit.

The Cavaliers will still win the series against the Pacers despite losing Game 1

I don't think the Cavs should panic... I think the Cavs are still gonna win the series.

I think the Lakers Wolves is gonna be a, a six or seven game series and I, I expected the Lakers to win tonight and I expected what we saw.

The Vikings will either be first or last in the NFC North this year

Defense is gonna be good, but then again, you've got Caleb [Williams] coming up with the Bears. You've got Jordan Love with the Packers, and the Lions are gonna be good. I don't know. We could be first or we could be last.

Colorado is the best team in the West and will return to the Cup Finals

Colorado to me is, they're the best team in the West. And if they play Dallas, which I think they will in the first round, one of those kind of unfair, like either team could win the cup and somebody losing first round.

Brooks Koepka is my pick to win the Masters this year

I gotta pick for you guys... I'm thinking Brooks [Koepka]. I like that he's won there before. I bet Brooks every single year. I'm a loyal guy.

The 2025 Final Four features the four most deserving and dominant teams in the country.

I don't think you can name a fifth team that this year deserves to be playing for the national championship more than the four teams that are, are alive. And there's something really, really good about that.

Duke will win the national championship.

Who do we got winning all now that we're at the Sweet 16 re-bracket? I don't know, I think it's just gonna be Duke. I think Duke's gonna win it all.

The UConn vs Oklahoma game will go over 147.5 points

I'm gonna take the over in this game and here's why. UConn and Oklahoma are both elite free throw shooting teams... we're gonna get a lot of trips to the line. And these, both these teams know how to make their free throws... I love the over here.

UNC will beat Ole Miss because the matchup favors the Tar Heels' lacks of bigs

Carolina, you watch them and the biggest jarring thing, they don't have any bigs that are like pros... But Ole Miss doesn't have any bigs really either. So I love the matchup for Carolina here and yeah, it's probably a conference pride deal.

Dallas Goedert will have over 60 receiving yards in Super Bowl 59

I'm going, I think this has gotta be a huge Dallas Goedert game. So I'm going Dallas Goedert over 60 yards receiving plus one 19. So it's plus money. I think this is Dallas Goedert game. I think he's got to eat. He's also, he leads the Eagles in, in receiving yards in the Playoffs.

Jalen Hurts will only be 60-70% healthy for the NFC Championship game

I think Philly's probably the favorite. Yeah. You gotta put Philly in there... Philadelphia Eagle defense man, Vic Fangio's got a couple rookies in the secondary... They're good man.

The Giants will win the international game in Germany against the Panthers

I actually think the Giants are gonna win. Do you know the Giants are leading the league in Sacks? 35. Their defensive line is very good... I like the Giants in this game just because I'm gonna bet it because it's gonna be on.

The 49ers will go on a massive run and dominate the NFC West following their bye week.

I think this is a 49ers reset. The 49ers went on a bye, they've had a tough start to the season, but they look up and the division is right there. I think they have everything in front of them and this is where they start playing good football... The 49ers are gonna go on a little run.
