Takes
Big CatThe Kansas City Chiefs' first loss will occur on November 17th against the Buffalo Bills.
I'm gonna say their first loss is gonna happen November 17th against the Bills. And then the Bills are gonna be like, we can beat the Chiefs and then they're gonna lose in the playoffs though.
Big CatJuan Soto's next contract could reach $750 million or even $1 billion.
Soto, it feels like, loves New York and it's going to be a literal bidding war between the Mets and the Yankees... Juan Soto signs for 12 years. A billion dollars. I mean... Soto could get like 13 years, 750 million.
Big CatThe Saints are officially on 'Quit Watch'
The Saints are officially on quit watch. Dennis Allen, Richard Sherman said at halftime, he's like, they're trying to get Dennis Allen fired. I wouldn't be shocked. And the Saints are just like—this was so—this was a bad game.
Big CatThe Packers' all-white 'Winter Warning' uniforms are a disgusting affront to football
The Packers going with the all-white uniforms and all-white helmets are a disgusting affront to football color rush. It's a disgusting front. The Green Bay Packers—and I hate them—their football jerseys and color scheme are football. They should never do any type of gimmicky alternate bullshit. If you're a Packers fan, you should be disgusted by this.
PFT CommenterI am 100% confident the Washington Wizards will get Cooper Flagg
All I'm saying is I've never been as confident. I've never been as confident in my life of anything as the fact that the wizards are gonna get Cooper Flagg. I'm willing to tell you right now, I will stand on this hill and I will plant my representative banner to say that we're getting Flagg.
Tom CoughlinEli Manning is the greatest big-game quarterback I have ever seen
People argue with me, I get it. But he's the greatest big-game quarterback that I've ever seen. I mean the way he approached things and the fact that he really accepted the challenge. He wanted the challenge... I've seen him do it under any circumstance you can imagine.
PFT CommenterThe Commanders' Super Bowl window is officially open.
I will announce that the Super Bowl window for the Commanders is officially open. This is the start of the Super Bowl window. Wow. We're not a Super Bowl winning team this year. I'm not thinking soupy this year, but I know when I see it, we have a Super Bowl window. We got a fuck load of cap space. we have a great quarterback. An awesome quarterback.
Big CatNick Sirianni is having a mental breakdown.
Nick Sirianni after the game or while the game was still going on, looked into the crowd and started basically getting in an argument with the Eagles crowd... Has he lost his mind? He also shaved his head. Which which is a classic sign of losing his mind. ... Siri's showing up today. I think that everybody thought the same thing. Like this is, we saw what happened with Britney Spears. Is Siri in a conservatorship?
MaxThe Phillies are in a downhill spiral and their window is closed
Philly's lost the game. They looked like shit. It's exact same thing that went on from 2009 to 2011 of the Phillies... and then what I am saying, yes, it is the same thing. Like it is just a downhill spiral with no World Series. There's no hope. There's no hope. And the window's closed for every team.
MaxThe Cleveland Browns will beat the Philadelphia Eagles
Browns money line. Eagles are bad. The vibe in that stadium is going to be horrendous. They're going to get booed within one incompletion. No one expects anything out of this Eagles team. The Browns are going to win.
Skip BaylessDak Prescott is not a Super Bowl winning quarterback
I'm just not buying. I don't believe I've, I've seen enough. I know what he is. And what especially he is not, he is two and five in the postseason. And every time a big moment has come in a postseason game that is begging to be won, he's not there. He's safe, and you know, he's going to put up gaudy enough numbers to be somewhere on the fringe of the MVP race... but they'll be just good enough to be a factor, just good enough to be relevant.
Skip BaylessMichael Jordan was the worst team builder in the history of sports
Michael Jordan as the team builder in Charlotte, who was the biggest disaster of a general manager in the history of sports. The greatest performer and player in the history of sports was the worst team builder in the history of sports for low those many years in Charlotte. Because he couldn't see why can he play and he can't.
Skip BaylessBronny James might not be able to play in the NBA
I've seen 14, 13 minute stints in two preseason games... it's Summer League all over again. I saw him share the floor with his father for the first time ever, and he plays 14 minutes and he turns it over four times and he scores zero points. And I'm saying I, I don't know if he can play. Seriously. What if his son just can't hack it?
PFT CommenterAaron Rodgers is a serial coach killer
[Aaron Rodgers] is a serial coach killer. Mike McCarthy and [Robert Saleh]. If you kill two people, you're a serial killer.
MaxThe Phillies are dead and they are a soft baseball team
The Phillies are dead... The Phillies are a soft baseball team. The Mets are a hard baseball team. They're a tough baseball team. They come back from things. And the Phillies just don't, they just die.
PFT CommenterHammer the Rams to beat the Vikings on October 24th
Hammer the Rams hammer the Rams on October 24th... that might be one like Cooper Kupp's back, Puka... hammer 'em.
MaxThe Phillies will lose to the Mets in five games
I mean, it's, it's going to go five. The Phillies are gonna go up 2-1. I'm going be comfortable... then the Mets are gonna have a heroic comeback in game four and then game five, they're just gonna smoke us and it's gonna be, it'll be like 4-0 Mets in game five. That's how it's gonna go.
Big CatDerrick Henry might be the last running back to reach 10,000 career yards
Derrick Henry is 17, 18 yards away from 10,000 yards. He could be the last running back we see get 10,000 yards... Jonathan Taylor... is halfway there... but it's nuts to look at and realize that Derrick Henry... might not see a lot of 10,000 yards guys, you know, ever again.
PFT CommenterTravis Hunter is the best college football player I've ever seen
He is the best football player in the country... Travis Hunter. Travis Hunter deserves the respect. He might be the best college football player I've ever seen.
Booger McFarlandThe Washington Commanders are currently the best team in the NFC East
The Washington Commanders look like the best team in the NFC East right now. Dallas can't get out of their own way... and the Giants are the Giants. Jayden Daniels looks to be not just the best rookie quarterback, he's among the top 15 quarterbacks in football.
Booger McFarlandCollege kickers miss big kicks because they are mentally weak
My theory is this, is that football players... develop mental toughness. Kickers don't do that. Kickers... are not mentally tough. And so when you get in those pressure moments, they haven't been mentally hardened... I just think kickers are mentally weak man.
PFT CommenterSam Darnold would be second or third for MVP if the season ended today
If the season ended today, [Sam Darnold] might not be MVP, but he would be maybe second or third for MVP.
HankI still plan to dunk and the steroid decision is coming in the next two weeks
I'm still going gung ho. I still plan to dunk. I'm still training as if I'm going to dunk... the steroid decision is coming in the next two weeks.
MaxThere is a chance Nick Sirianni doesn't make it through the bye week
I think there's a chance that Sirianni doesn't make it, make it through the bye... there's a problem between coach and quarterback.
PFT CommenterIf the Commanders defense is even average, we could win a playoff game
If our defense is 16th in the NFL... I'm thinking a win in the playoffs. I'm thinking maybe divisional week.
PFT CommenterKarl-Anthony Towns is a terrible fit for the Knicks
Was your initial reaction like mine, which was basically that KAT could not be a worst fit for this team?
PFT CommenterI am 100% in on the Vikings; their success is not a fluke
I am, I think I'm a hundred percent in on the Vikings. I think I'm in on 'em. I don't think what they're doing is a fluke. I think that their defense is really confusing. And I think that Sam Darnold, I don't know if Sam Darnold's like a, a great starting quarterback at large in the NFL, but in this offense with this head coach, I think he's really, really good.
Ryan WhitneyThe Bruins lowballed Jeremy Swayman with a four-year, $6.2 million offer
I find out that the offer is four years times 6.2 crazy low ball. And that they, that they haven't talked in like three weeks. It's August camps in 10 days... I had the contract offer. Right. He [Don Sweeney] didn't argue that. So whether it was two weeks, three weeks, or 10 days, right. There's been enough silence in August with your star goalie that it's seriously alarming.
PFT CommenterJayden Daniels will win a Super Bowl in the next five years
I did fire off a tweet at like 3:00 AM as I was, I got back from the casino... and I said that I think [Jayden Daniels] is gonna win a Super Bowl in the next five years. Whoa. And I think he is. Maybe even two.
Michael SilverThe Chicago Bears are the most under-marketed entity in American commerce
I don't believe that there is a more under-marketed entity in American commerce than the Chicago Bears... in this city... it's a football town... and with the Bears, you know, in '85 and like that was, it was just, it engulfed everything. And they've been living off it since.
Big CatI'm not worried about Caleb Williams; I'm worried about the Bears' coaching staff ruining him
Nothing has changed about my opinion about Caleb Williams other than the fact maybe everyone was right that Matt Eberflus is a fucking moron... Caleb Williams is not my worry at all. I know people were going to say he is a bust and all that shit. He's not my worry. I swear to God, I'm not worried at all. I'm worried about the coaching staff just like ruining him in a way that makes me worried.
Big CatThe Panthers should trade Bryce Young immediately while he still has some value
You've got to trade Bryce Young right this second because what could happen is David Tepper could be like, Hey, maybe this team isn't so bad, Bryce Young, get back in there. Don't do that. Play with Andy Dalton. Trade Bryce Young for anything you can right now.
Big CatJustin Tucker is officially washed
We also had a passing of the torch in this game. We've talked about it, but Justin Tucker missing a 46 yarder and Brandon Aubrey making a 65 yarder. I think it's official washed.
PFT CommenterShohei Ohtani is the best baseball player of all time
I'd say that this, he is the best baseball player of all time. Whether or not he'll have the best career of all time is kind of up for grabs. But we've never seen anybody that's doing what he's doing.
MaxBryce Huff is a terrible player
I have a guy that you guys can get, he was first in pressure rate in 2022 and third in rate in 2023. And you can have him, do you want him... Oh no, he sucks.
PFT CommenterNick Sirianni should have been arrested for not kicking the field goal in the first half
The Eagles could have won if they had kicked that field goal in the first quarter. Which, and it's not, it's not hindsight to say it. I tweeted out at the time that Nick Sirianni should be arrested... I think that just the take that Nick Sirianni should be arrested is applicable to all sorts of different things that he does.
Big CatBen Simmons is officially back to playing at an All-Star level
Ben Simmons reportedly is in camp and or at least training. He says Ben Simmons is back to playing all star talent level basketball. Get ready for this boys big season loading... I think this is the year, this is the year for Ben.
Cole CubelicUrban Meyer's coaching style would not work in modern college football
I have a ton of respect for Urban, but I don't think his style of coaching is overly conducive with today's college football. He's a grinder. Yeah, absolutely... That's a small portion of why Saban walked away. Like he couldn't coach the guys the way that he wanted to anymore, the way the guys probably need to be coached. But you now you have an out... Rick Trickett... referenced me as the dumbest motherfucker... every single day. You can't do that anymore.
PFT CommenterJustin Tucker is officially washed compared to his peak
Is Justin Tucker washed? Yes. He is washed compared to peak Justin Tucker. 100%. He's no longer Justin Tucker. He's no longer, 'Hey, we have a 50-yard field goal, we're gonna make it because we have Justin Tucker.'
Big CatSam Darnold has officially arrived in the NFL after seven years
Sam Darnold's back. Sam Darnold has arrived. Sam Darnold is our Baker Mayfield of this year. It took him seven years, but he has finally arrived in the NFL. He is now, dare I say, good.
Big CatAnthony Richardson is not currently good at quarterbacking
Anthony Richardson is just not that good at quarterbacking right now. He had two very, very bad interceptions. Missing guys. I just don't see it what other people see. Kale Williams was really good in college. Anthony Richardson wasn't. So that's where I'm like, I don't know.
Big CatBryce Young's career in Carolina is over
I feel bad for Bryce Young. It doesn't feel like it's ever gonna happen. Carolina, I feel like that part is, is kind of done. 'Cause even if he plays the rest of this year, there's no way the Panthers are gonna be good enough where they're like, we're gonna keep him going forward.
Big CatCaleb Williams won't survive the season behind the Bears' offensive line
Caleb Williams is gonna get murdered. He's gonna get killed behind this offensive line. I'm actually like worried that even if Caleb Williams, I still believe in Caleb Williams. I don't know if Caleb Williams will survive because the offensive line is that bad.
PFT CommenterTua Tagovailoa should consider retiring now that he is financially set
I am very glad that Tua [Tagovailoa] got a contract this season. Because now it takes all the financial reasons away from Tua for him to decide whether or not he wants to keep playing football... I would not be surprised if he was like, I'm done playing football because what, this is the third time that we've seen the fencing reflex from him.
PFT CommenterI made the biggest bet of the season on the Colts -3 because Malik Willis is starting for the Packers
Biggest bet of the season. I know it's early, but so far biggest bet of the season on the Colts... This is strictly a bet against Malik Willis... I don't think that there are 21 other guys. I think it's just an entire team of Malik Willises this week.
PFT CommenterThe wheels are officially going to fall off for Deion Sanders and Colorado
The wheels could fall off [at Colorado]. Oh yeah, the wheels could fall off. I mean I think the wheels are gonna fall off.
Big CatJalen Carter is a dirty player who tried to injure Jordan Love
The grass had nothing to do with that injury. You can blame Jalen Carter for being dirty, dirty player. Trying to injure people. Yeah. I think that would be the more, more the blame.
