Aaron Rodgers will sign with the New York Giants next season

I think, I think he might walk across to the other locker room. The Giants. He loves New York. They improve their old line. They have some receivers. Their defensive line is good. He doesn't have to move.

Nick Nurse leaked the 76ers team meeting details because of his obsession with the phrase 'elephant in the room'

Tyrese loves the big fella, but this is the elephant in the room. A person involved in the meeting told ESPN... Nick Nurse is very fond of using the phrase elephant in the room. And he's done it at least three times. Nick Nurse loves the phrase elephant in the room. He had a fucking elephant on his desk.

Justin Tucker legitimately might be washed

There's something wrong with Justin Tucker and we've been calling him washed I think ever since it might've been 2017 when he missed that extra point against the Saints... now I think he legitimately might be washed. He's 30th in the NFL in terms of accuracy this year.

Matt Eberflus is a stupid head coach who coaches scared

Matt Eberflus is now 14 and 30 as a head coach. He's five and 17 in one score games... He's coaching like a guy who has like a 10 year contract. He's coaching like he shouldn't push the buttons to be like, 'Hey, you're a four and six team now.' ... Not only do you not run an extra play when you have a timeout in your back pocket to try to get closer, but in the drive before that it's fourth and three on the 50 yard line. Try to win the game right there.

The Chargers are a legitimate Super Bowl threat

The conversation started 35 to one. We talked about it at 45 to one, they're down to 20 to one. ... No, because the Chargers could win the Super Bowl. And then when they do, I'm gonna laugh in your [Hank's] face.

The 2024 Washington Commanders are frauds

Bernie Madoff. Sam Bankman-Fried. The 2020 election. The 2024 Washington Commanders. [Frauds]. Sometimes the haters are right. When the haters are right, you gotta say, great job haters.

Shane Waldron was the primary issue behind the Bears' struggles

Shane Waldron is the Antichrist. Shane Waldron caused all the problems. Shane Waldron, every war tragedy, anything you can think of in history. Shane Waldron was the issue behind it... The only way I can tell myself that the Bears have a chance is that Shane Waldron was deliberately holding the Bears back in every capacity and now everything's gonna be different.

The Bears' organization has ruined Caleb Williams

The organization's a fucking joke... None of it makes sense. Everything sucks. The organization is a joke. They've ruined Caleb Williams.

Wide receiver bubble screens are a waste of time and personnel

When you throw a bubble screen or a quick screen, I mean, how how many times do you see Jerry Rice run a bubble screen right now? You never saw Willie Gault run a bubble screen. You got these three Corvettes [Keenan Allen, DJ Moore, Rome Odunze]... Now let him run some routes and tell the quarterback to throw him the ball or get rid of the ball, but quit taking sacks.

Patrick Mahomes would suck on the Bears because the Bears are a joke of an organization

Patrick Mahomes would suck on the Bears. 'Cause the Bears are a joke of an organization. That's just how it works. There's nothing gonna change. They don't care about winning.

The Bears will never hire someone who's an alpha or a football guy as head coach

The Bears will never hire someone who's an alpha or a football guy. They won't 'cause they just want to have Kevin Warren, an empty suit, be the guy who's in charge somehow. They're never gonna hire a guy who's like, this is my way or the highway. I'm running this. I'm bigger than the organization. It just won't happen.

Brian Kelly is such a loser — he complained to refs about Alabama blitzing with 15 seconds left

Brian Kelly, he's just such a loser. Did you see the clip of him complaining to the refs about Alabama blitzing eight with like 15 seconds left? LSU had their whole starters in, they were trying to score a touchdown and he's like, I can't believe you blitzed. He's just a loser, loser, loser.

The Giants should not play Daniel Jones another down of football this year

Daniel Jones should not play another snap. He should not play another snap because he has, he has the, remember Russell Wilson last year... if he gets injured, his money becomes guaranteed and you can cut him this year and it's, you don't have to pay him any more money and it's like a $22 million cap hit. You should not play him another down of football this year.

If the Chiefs go undefeated and win three in a row, they are a more impressive dynasty than the Patriots

If these Chiefs go undefeated... and they win the Super Bowl... that would pretty much seal the deal for which Dynasty is more impressive. It would, it would definitely beat one of the Patriots' dynasties.

The Bears should fire Matt Eberflus tomorrow

The Bears are so, so, so bad. And Matt Eberflus should be fired tomorrow. And it won't fix it. Listen, Matt Eberflus and Shane Waldron deserve blame. But I'm not saying it's all on them... But you can fire the coach. And the coach stinks.

The Buccaneers are going to win the NFC South

I weirdly think we should maybe take this opportunity to bet on the Bucks to maybe win the NFC South if we can find a good line. Because the Bucks have lost four in a row... but they look competitive against 49ers today... Mike Evans is coming back. Baker is an absolute dog.

LeBron James wants Coach K to replace JJ Redick as the Lakers' head coach

I think this is LeBron wants Coach K as the coach Lakers and JJ out. Yeah, because it was a dream Coach K. And it was about Duke, JJ's team.

Justin Tucker is officially washed

Lamar finds a way there. Justin Tucker. Wash this. It feels like the Ravens might be destined to get into a close playoff game... and to get out kicked. I hope that's not the case, but there's something up with Justin Tucker.

Whichever team wins the Steelers-Commanders game will win their division

Whichever team wins this game, I think that team is gonna win their division. I think they could maybe be thinking soupy [Super Bowl].

Saquon Barkley will rush for 200 yards against the Cowboys

I've been saying everywhere that Saquon's gonna run for 200 yards. 'cause it, I mean, the Cowboys can't stop the run and it's just gonna be bully ball by the, by the Eagles.

Todd Bowles is a coward for not going for two against the Chiefs

Todd Bowles is the biggest fucking coward in the world... You somehow got yourself in position where you can win the game, score a touchdown, and then you have the opportunity to go for two on the road Monday football against an undefeated team. Or you can kick an extra point like a coward, go to overtime and think that you can win an overtime against literally Patrick Mahomes.

The NBA Slam Dunk Contest should be replaced by a Layup Contest

I think they should do a layup contest instead of slam dunk contest. [Ja Morant's 360 layup] was sick... I thought to myself like, with enough practice I could possibly do that. Also not true. But it still made me think.

Juan Soto will sign a contract worth $700 million

I think he's gonna get 700 million. Yeah... I think he's gonna get a stupid amount of money. But the fact that the way he's going about it just means that like, yeah, it doesn't, he doesn't give a fuck who's giving him this money.

Saquon Barkley will win the NFL rushing title

I think Saquon's gonna win the rushing title. I know Derrick Henry leads the league in rushing, but I think Saquon's gonna win it... I think their offensive line is better than Baltimore's. And I think that you watch Mekhi Becton in there at right guard, like he's just, you know, there's just, he's just a freak.

Joel Embiid was justified in shoving the reporter

I am on Joel Embiid's side. This reporter Marcus Hayes wrote an article basically calling Joel Embiid... calling out his dead brother. You don't have to bring up Joel Embiid's family... Fuck that guy.

Matt Eberflus is a loser and needs to be fired immediately

Matt Eberflus is a loser and he needs to be fired, which he won't be because the Bears will never fire a coach in the middle of the season... This team quit. It's an utter disaster. Matt Eberflus is oh and 18 on Sundays on the road.

The Cowboys should trade Micah Parsons

I actually think they should trade Micah Parsons. They never will. But that would be the smart move for Jerry Jones. So if you're like, if you signed Dak Prescott to a big deal and you're like, he's the quarterback, you need some draft picks. You need to start like getting depth around him.

The Bears will eventually hire Lincoln Riley and it will be a disaster

You know who they're gonna get? They're gonna get stinking Riley. He's gonna bolt from USC and that's going to be a disaster. We're gonna, and he's gonna get Caleb Williams playing good football and that defense is gonna erode. And it's gonna just be like, the Bears will then flip into a team that scores a lot and has the worst defense in the NFL.

The Commanders could reach the NFC Championship if they beat the Steelers and Eagles

If we somehow beat the Steelers and the Eagles... I could see us potentially getting to the NFC Championship game. And you wouldn't have a road game until the NFC Championship game.

I know [the Jets] are all the way back. I think the Jets are gonna win three straight right now... I think we're gonna turn around and the jets are gonna be, they're gonna be six and six.

The New York Jets are the worst coached football team of all time

This is also the worst coach football team of all time. Oh, that's a lot of, all times. There's so many All times.

Anthony Richardson is currently more of an athlete than a quarterback because he lacks consistency in the pocket

Anthony's stats didn't match. His ability and, and all, all ability doesn't make a quarterback. Now. You gotta be, you gotta win two minute, third down. I don't give a shit how fast you run. How high you jump... if you can't show me that you can do that in college, that to me, you're not a quarterback, you're an athlete... And he didn't exactly tear people up in college. You know, it was just combine superstar.

Andrew Luck is the ultimate quarterback prospect, possessing every top-tier trait

If I was gonna build all of [the QBs I've coached] into one, it'd be Andrew Luck. 'cause he had everything that they all had, you know, he had a photographic memory. He was as athletic stuff was off the charts, same as Cam Newton's. His, his recall was like Ben and Tom. His preparation was like Ben and Tom and Ben, Tom and Peyton.

The two Yankees fans who interfered with Mookie Betts are responsible for the Yankees winning Game 4

Those guys sparked the Yankees. Like I believe that those guys are responsible for this win in those bats waking up because basically the, all the Yankee fans sitting in, in Yankee stadium tonight were like, do something. And the Capobianco brothers are like, you know what? We'll do something.

I believe I can score 60 or 70 points in an NBA game

I know there's more, you know, I don't feel like, oh man, I, I, I gave everything I had. I can't go any, you know, further than that. It's like, nah man, I feel like I can, you know, go get 60, 70.

Paolo Banchero will win an NBA MVP at some point in his career

The Commanders' Super Bowl window is officially open right now

I don't think it's delusional to say that I am, I'm existing inside of a Super Bowl window right now. ... The window's cracked right now and I'm, I'm thinking about opening it up. There's a nice draft that's coming through.

The Bears coaching staff is a joke and needs to be replaced immediately

I reaffirmed my opinion that this coaching staff is a joke. And we need to get rid of them as soon as possible because it's like they're, they're, they're a joke. They're a joke. Like that's a bye week. You come out of a bye-week looking like that.

The Cardinals are good enough to win the NFC West

I think the Cardinals are good enough to win that division. I don't think it's a good division. They beat the 49ers and the offense can look good. Yeah. The Cardinals are still in it.

The Jets' season is officially over

Nothing. The season's over. It's over. It's over, dude. We're right now... I've been saying we'll go like 11 and 6, blah blah, blah. We're right on pace for 2 and 15.

Aaron Judge is a regular season merchant who doesn't show up in the playoffs

The Yankees are just like Aaron Judge is a regular season merchant. All he does is hit home runs in the regular season, doesn't show up in the playoffs. Like that's a and and if there's one fanbase that will not tolerate that, it's the New York Yankees.

The Rams would win a trade sending Matthew Stafford to the Vikings for Sam Darnold

There were floating rumors out there about Matthew Stafford being traded for Sam Darnold. Which would've been insane if that had happened. I was, as a fan of chaos, I was hoping that that would happen before the game because that we'll never see that again. And honestly, I think that the Rams would win that trade.

The NFL owners should force Jimmy Haslam to sell the Browns for ruining the guaranteed contract market

Jimmy Haslam giving Deshaun [Watson] that guaranteed contract pissed everybody off. In the NFL... I think that there's a chance, I'm not saying it's a high chance, but there is a chance that the other owners turn on Haslam because of what he did with the contract and set that precedent. I hope for Cleveland fans that they get to experience that... he should sell the team as just a fan of the sport.

Jerod Mayo might be one-and-done as the Patriots head coach

There was a rumor going around, I think... picking up a lot of steam. [That Jerod Mayo was going to be one and done]. I don't, I think that's unfair to coach Mayo to do this year, but I think it's probably smart to move on after the season.

The modern RPO-heavy NFL is 'Friday night high school offense' that gets quarterbacks killed

I don't like passing plays with the offensive line run blocking. I don't like seeing quarterbacks getting their ass knocked off because of this ridiculous protection offense that I'm watching. That's what RPO stands for me... I don't wanna see Friday night offense in high school all day Saturday and then see it on Sunday. I wanna see these NFL quarterbacks drop back to pass, throw an array of routes with different route trees and audibles.

The Buccaneers should fire Todd Bowles now and make Liam Coen the head coach

Their defense is bad... Liam Coen, their offensive coordinator is seemingly a very good offensive coordinator. If you want to keep him, you should make him the head coach right Now. Just because like Todd Bowles is what he is... I wouldn't let Liam Coen out the door and keep Todd Bowles after the season is over.

College Football will eventually separate into a professionalized premier league model

There's a suggestion that the gaps will grow so big... that there will be a small segment, not 130, maybe not even 70, maybe 40 or 50 that separate off and, and do their own thing. It would be more of a professionalized kind of model. That's the way a lot of folks see this going.

Ben Simmons will have a great season because he is finally healthy

I think the work has been working. He just has to stay healthy. I think he can impact the game so many ways... some guys, you just don't need to be a shooter... Ben Simmons just needs to be healthy, period. He's healthy, he's gonna have a great season. It's that simple.

Chase Young is the NFL leader in 'looking cool' compared to actual on-field production.

Chase Young is probably the guy who looks the coolest and looks the most athletic compared to what he actually does on the field. I don't think that that would fit well in that system.

Fans have every right to cheer for Deshaun Watson's injury.

They cheered when he went down. I got no problem with that... he's a bad guy. I'm not gonna be like, oh, Boohoo Deshaun Watson... people being happy about it, I don't have any problem with people being happy about it either.
