Takes

The Jaguars loss wounded Jim Harbaugh's soul and is likely the worst loss of his career.

I think this is going to be a game where if you, if we have Jim Harbaugh on in 10 years and we're like, 'what's the worst loss you ever had?' he might say this game because the Jaguars outmanned and out-physicaled and were more violent and just played Jim Harbaugh football right down his throat... I think this loss wounded Jim Harbaugh's soul.

The Seahawks defense is Super Bowl caliber.

The Seahawks defense is elite... I think the Seahawks defense is Super Bowl caliber defense.

Aaron Rodgers is not very good anymore

I don't think Rodgers is very good anymore. Aaron Rodgers has not been playing elite football. The offense does not look explosive at all.

1992 to 1993 was the greatest run of movies ever

The 1992 to 1993, like the greatest run of movies ever. The Fugitive, Jurassic Park, all those. Best year of movies.

No one wants to play the Chiefs in the playoffs.

If they get there, no one wants to [play them]. Like no troll. Like no one wants to play [Mahomes]. No... Whenever you think they're down, that's when it's, when they come back.

The Eagles are the most easily bullied team in the NFL

The Eagles are the number one can-be-bullied team. It definitely felt like that... they are a tough watch right now, but it works.

Nick Sirianni is allowed to make questionable decisions because he is a winner

Nick Sirianni is the winningest coach in the NFL right now... I think that Nick Sirianni is allowed to make decisions and shouldn't be scrutinized for every single thing that he's done when he just keeps winning football games.

The Eagles defensive line is elite.

Defense is insane. The Eagles defensive line is so fucking good... Jalen Phillips has completely changed this defense.

The Barstool Internet Invitational was the best piece of sports entertainment ever on YouTube.

I do actually think that that was the best piece of sports entertainment I've ever watched on YouTube. In the YouTube video format. It was the final round had like so many twists and turns in it. It had a lot of emotions.

Justin Fields is not a viable starting quarterback in the NFL

Until you have [Justin Fields] on your team, you can't fully, in theory, he's got everything. But then you watch him and you're like, okay, there's something. It's just, it's just not there the way it needs to be for a starter in the NFL.

Jacoby Brissett is currently a better quarterback than Kyler Murray

He [Jacoby Brissett] has looked a lot better than Kyler Murray's looked this season. That's not—that's not a mistake. He's better right now.

Mike Elco is an unbelievable coach and a perfect fit for the Texas A&M job

Texas A&M [is one of the best teams]... they won the press conference with Jimbo Fisher, and then they got a guy, Mike Elco, whoever's like, oh, what dude? Yeah. Okay. He's an unbelievable coach. Not only that, he's a great fit at Texas A&M and understands it.

LSU is a top-three job in college football and is better than the Alabama job

I caught a bunch of flack for saying I think LSU is a top three job in college football... I think it's a better job than Alabama... They've got more resources at LSU than there are at Alabama... Alabama doesn't have [boosters like Todd Graves] guys. They don't.

Ohio State vs. Indiana is the toughest matchup in the country for the Buckeyes

If I were to say of any team in the country, like what's the toughest matchup for Ohio State? It's Indiana... because they can run the football... Mendoza is also very good... That's gonna make life difficult on what I think is the best defense in college football.

If South Florida wins out, they absolutely deserve to be in the College Football Playoff.

If South Florida runs the table... I also understand that South Florida is deserved to go in. Because they went and they beat Florida, you know, in the swamp. So that, you know, that's a, that's a big, big time win.

James Madison deserves a playoff spot because they are undefeated on Saturdays.

One school [James Madison] has not lost on a single Saturday... Undefeated on Saturdays. The other school [South Florida] has lost twice on Saturdays... You better hope to God that it's on a Friday if you don't put the undefeated on Saturday team in.

Ohio State is significantly better than every other team in college football

I still think Ohio State is that much better than everyone else. And we'll find out though, Indiana and Ohio State feel like they're on a collision course.

LSU's legal strategy of firing their AD for 'cause' to void Brian Kelly's contract is ironclad in Louisiana.

I think they're also gonna go with the, we fired Scott Woodward for cause therefore, anything that he did at the end of his tenure was also not an official act of LSU and their athletic department... Listen, I think in Louisiana it plays. I think that's ironclad.

You can be critical of a coach and still root for them to succeed once it's decided they are staying.

I feel like people just need to fan how you want to fan... being critical of things not working is what you should do... now that they're [Luke Fickell] not [gone], I am like, I'm going to root my ass off for both guys to succeed. I do not want them to fail.

The Eagles defense is nasty and Jalen Phillips was the missing piece to make them elite again

I think the Eagles defense is nasty... Jalen Phillips was a monster and they feel like they're rounding into that type of form again.

The Packers' offense is completely broken right now.

Something's wrong, something's broken. They're in the Bills category of broken right now... their offense feels broken. It definitely feels like there's something going on that they got to like they gotta figure it out before it's too late.

The NFL should ban the tush push because the Eagles are simply too much better at it than everyone else.

I hope they ban it because the Eagles are so much better at that play than anybody else. And I would, I would prefer them to not be able to dominate teams with it. But if you're asking me if the plays should be banned? No, it's, it's, it's not their fault that they're better at it.

NFL referees are intentionally not calling false starts on the tush push so they can use the tape to ban it in the offseason.

Refs are purposely not calling the false starts so that they can use that in the off season to ban it... they thought of how can we get a reason of why this should be banned? Say it's hard to officiate it, don't officiate it correctly, then it'll be banned.

Shohei Ohtani's 50/50 game in the 2024 NLCS is the best game ever played in sports history

[Ohtani's game] might be the best game ever played, maybe in any sport... especially when you consider the NLCS, you know, it's like, it's in the playoffs, you know? Yeah. I think he might be right.

Ayahuasca allows you to have real conversations with your ancestors in another realm

You go back, you go back and you have real conversations with your people. You know, you go to another realm... The medicine brought me places that definitely put me at peace with things that were, I had turmoil in my system.

Chemistry is the most underrated aspect of sports

Something very underrated about sports in general. People always underestimate chemistry. You know, we could talk about stats and the star player and this and that, but when you enjoy playing with somebody, I think those guys look, there's eight guys scoring 10 points on the bulls.

The Commanders should not let Jayden Daniels play for the rest of the season

Under no circumstances should Jayden Daniels step foot on the field with this team this year. The defense is Yes, historically bad... I'm full on tanking. And, and there was a report last week that, that Jayden might come back after the buy. You should. I, I wanna be perfectly clear about this. Under no circumstances should Jayden Daniels step foot on the field.

Jonathan Taylor is the best running back in the NFL

This [game] had Jonathan Taylor remind everyone that he is the best running back in the NFL. I know that I've shifted around, I think I said Jahmyr Gibbs a few weeks ago. Jonathan Taylor just keeps reminding everyone, 'Hey, it's actually me.'

Alec Pierce is one of the best deep-threat wide receivers in the NFL

Alec Pierce is awesome. Yeah. I love him as a deep threat... He's one of the best deep threat wide receivers in the league.

The Panthers should never be favored in an NFL game ever again

We should just never, ever let the Panthers be favorites ever again... Probably makes anyone, never make 'em the favorite ever again.

The Patriots have an inflated record due to an easy schedule

Patriots look, they look cool. Patriots might have an inflated record due to their current schedule this season... I'm hearing around the league that your schedule might not have been the hardest.

The Patriots are a top-three team in the AFC

Where would you put them in terms of the best teams in the A, FC? One to three? One to three?

Devon Achane is faster than everyone else in the NFL

Devon Achane is also still very fast and very, very good. He had 225 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns. He's the man. Yeah. You just forget every now and then, like 'Oh yeah. That guy is so much faster than everyone.'

Caleb Williams has the clutch gene

Caleb Williams has that clutch gene where they're down 10 with six minutes left. He goes on a 91 yard drive and then goes on a 53 yard drive both touchdowns. And it's like, yeah, he, when the, when the lights get bright and the back is against the wall, he comes up with big plays.

It is coaching malpractice for Brian Daboll to play Russell Wilson over Jameis Winston

The fact that [Brian Daboll] has Russ Wilson starting or coming in second off the bench instead of Jameis, is it's malpractice as a coach. I think that's actually a worse mistake than losing four consecutive games where you have a lead by 10 or more points.

The Los Angeles Rams are the best team in the NFC

After watching everyone play, I, I think the Rams might be the best. They're number one in the NFC. Yeah.

Keenan Allen is the second-best Charger of my lifetime

Probably the face right now. Top three, maybe second best Charger of my lifetime... [LaDainian Tomlinson] was when I was like five years old, so I was like [not really watching].

Bo Nix is essentially the new Tim Tebow

I'm a believer. But the bow [Nix] wins football games. This is why we've been saying that he is Tim Tebow. Did you, you give him all the credit in the world for this and it was, that was a dog shit football game.

Al Michaels' broadcasting mood is determined by the length of his flight to the stadium

My theory too on Al is that it just depends on how long of a flight he had to take. So when he's like at a Charger's vi the Charger's playing the Vikings, which was a blowout, he was pretty happy tonight... If he has to call next week Jets, patriots, we're gonna get a surly surly al Michaels 'cause he is gotta go cross country. He's gonna be pissed off.

Wind turbines should be banned from the ocean because they destroy ecosystems

I'll stand up business on, on wind getting wind turbines out of the ocean. I don't really care one way or the other about the ones on land... I was on a boat off of Block Island and the captain was telling me about how a wind turbine broke and the pieces of the wind turbine were just completely destroying the ecosystem of the ocean.

Kyler Murray made the correct financial decision choosing the NFL over MLB

I'll say that. Even if [Kyler Murray] never is a good starting quarterback in the NFL and never gets another bonafide shot, he made the correct choice because he's made $170 million.

The Italian race is essentially finished because they are too attracted to Latinas

He [Jersey Jerry] told me today that Italians were done in this country... because a lot of them are attracted to Latinas. And so then they have kids with Latinas and then there's no more Italians.

I would draft a generational cornerback over a generational pass rusher

If I had an opportunity at, you know, like a generational pass rusher with nobody behind them or a generational corner with decent rushers up front. I'm taking the generational corner... you cannot manufacture coverage. You can manufacture pass rush.

Caleb Williams is the most talented quarterback in the NFC North

I, I don't think it's unreasonable to say [Caleb Williams] is the most talented quarterback in the division... he's got a different kind of talent like the extension of plays, the throwing off tar off platform. Like that's big in today's NFL.

The Bills' best path to beating the Chiefs is exploiting Kansas City's lack of tight end coverage

The Bills' best hope is I don't know what Kansas City does to cover the tight ends... with Reed going to New Orleans, they're down a cover guy... the Bills have owned the middle of the field.

Solo dates are the superior way to experience the movies

I went on, I guess what someone called solo date the other day. I thought it was okay. I thought it was like a rec, a super normal thing to do... You ever, you ever go to the movies solo? Yes sir. All the time. That's great. I think that's the best way to go to the movies.

Notre Dame should not be ranked ahead of Texas or Oklahoma in the CFP rankings

I do think that the Oklahoma and Notre Dame Texas rankings makes no sense... Notre Dame's best win is against USC and their losses are Texas A&M and Miami... Texas's best win is Oklahoma and Vanderbilt... Oklahoma has also two ranked wins Michigan and Tennessee. Their losses against Ole Miss and Texas... it just doesn't make sense to me why Notre Dame is ahead of those two teams.

NFL games should be free for everyone to watch

Sports should be free. That's my take. When I'm elected president free sports for everybody... It keeps people happy. It's also just the right thing to do.

The Green Bay Packers are a dangerous team because they are 'desperate' off a bad loss

If you're playing the Packers next, you gotta watch out because he's [LaFleur] gonna fix this and they're gonna come out with their hair on fire... You don't want to play the Packers against the Packers off a loss.

The Blue Jays' World Series loss is the worst loss of all time

I think that might be the worst loss of all time for the Blue Jays... the slow burn of the loss where if you're a Falcons fan and you're looking at 28 to three... those happen all in one game. This was 10 days where it just, and you had 3-2 going back home. It's just insane.
