Takes

The Redskins will win eight games next year under Ron Rivera

I'm dangerously close to being back all in on the our words [Redskins] and by all in I think maybe they win 8 games next year. Woah. Yeah, that's a lot.

The Buffalo Bills will beat the Houston Texans 17-10 on Saturday

The final score will be 17 to 10. Yep, and the Buffalo Bills will win. Whoo. Okay, put it in stone.

The Patriots will beat the Titans easily and make everyone look stupid

This feels like one of those games where everyone is going to talk themselves into the Patriots being done... they're going to beat the Titans easily and everyone's be like damn we feel stupid.

Ryan Tannehill is not afraid of Tom Brady and the Titans will win

I'm taking the Titans. Okay, I think that Tannehill is the one quarterback that is not afraid of Tom Brady. He's beaten him four times... now we got Tannehill he's going to go in there. I think that the Titans are going to win.

The Eagles are my lock of the year against the Seahawks

I'm taking the Eagles because it's Tony's it's my Tony Danza lock the lock of the Year. Okay. I mean, I'm not an idiot. I'm going to also take Tony Danza.

Notre Dame will not win a national championship anytime soon

Are they gonna win a National Championship? Not soon. I don't think so. They're not bad. They will be in that college football playoff picture every year to be a top ten team... but there are some things that make it much more difficult at Notre Dame to win a National Championship.

I am going to bench press 215 pounds in 2020

My New Year's resolution is to... be able to bench press 215 pounds. So what would be—which will be really helpful for you... 215 once. Yeah.

The Falcons are the clear 'Dark Horse' team for the 2020 NFL season

They are perfectly perfectly placed to be one of the Dark Horse teams in 2020 because they finished the season on a high note... this will definitely be the you'll be sitting September 2020... and someone probably Strahan will probably say you know which team I really got my eye on the Atlanta Falcons.

The Patriots will beat the Titans in the Wild Card round but then lose to the Chiefs

I feel like the [Patriots are] going to roll the Titans and everyone's going to buy back in and then they're going to lose the Chiefs.

The Titans will beat the Patriots in the Wild Card round

I think I think the Titans take [the Patriots].

The Packers will win 'ugly' and make the Super Bowl

The Packers look terrible in the first half they obviously came in and won... but they're going to fucking go to the Super Bowl. I just feel it in my bones. I just know it. I know they don't have the one seed anymore, but they're going to win ugly games.

Mike McCarthy will be the next head coach of the Cleveland Browns

I think it's going to be [Mike] McCarthy [for the Browns]. Because he looks like McCarthy looks like a Cleveland coach... if Freddy kitchens got a makeover and became slightly more professional, right? That's what you have when you get in my car if Freddy kitchens got a haircut and skip dinner. Yeah, he'd be Mike McCarthy.

The New York Jets are a sleeper candidate for 2020 after a strong finish

My AFC Mike strip Michael Strahan Dark Horse team has to be the Jets. Because in the last eight games of the season... the season just ran out on the Jets. You can't get Mono twice if it had kept on going they would have been the AFC East champions.

Drew Lock will be a five-time Pro Bowler

I'm going to take your original question say [Drew Lock] will make he will be in five pro/5 Pro Bowl. Damn. Okay. Okay, Drew lock five-time pro bowler.

Sam Howell will be a Heisman contender in a few years

The Military Bowl UNC Sam Howell's awesome... circle him because he's going to be sort of like a Heisman guy in a couple years. He's a freshman true freshman.

I'm taking the Packers, Cowboys, and Broncos in a can't-lose parlay for Week 17

My can't lose parlay this week is the Green Bay Packers, the Dallas Cowboys, and the Denver Broncos.

The Seahawks will beat the 49ers on Sunday Night Football

I feel like I don't have faith in either of those teams. But that just feels like a Seahawks win. You close your eyes and you just see it's probably drizzling.

Clemson will beat Ohio State in the Fiesta Bowl

I have a future on Ohio State, but I think Clemson is going to beat them.

LSU will crush Oklahoma in the Peach Bowl regardless of the spread

Was it 13 and a half right now? Yeah, 14, 13 and a half. Fuck it. Make it 21. I still like LSU.

Steve Spagnuolo will be a head coach next year

I'm just going to make a prediction right now. Check it. Steve Spagnuolo... He's going to be interviewed by a lot of teams this offseason as a head coach. It's been enough time where people forgot that he's not a good head coach. I think he's actually going to be a head coach next year.

The Texans have no chance of winning more than one playoff game this year

Do you think the Texans have any ability to win more than one playoff game this year? I would say one's pushing it. That's how toothless I feel like they are even though [Deshaun Watson] is awesome.

Taysom Hill will be overpaid by a rival team to be a starting quarterback

Their theory is that Sean Payton wants somebody to overpay for Taysom Hill when he becomes a free agent to be a quarterback. And so that's why he keeps letting him throw the ball so that one of his future rivals will have a bunch of cap space tied up in Taysom Hill.

The Giants will beat the Eagles in Week 17

I wouldn't be shocked if the Giants somehow beat the Eagles on Sunday. I wouldn't either. I think it's possible. That's just stupid enough for the NFC East to come down to that.

The Seahawks should sign Marshawn Lynch for the playoffs

I've got an idea. Marshawn Lynch. Bring him back. Sign Marshawn Lynch and LeGarrette Blount... Marshawn could be talked into going back to Seattle. It'd be incredible.

Jameis Winston will record a touchdown, an interception, and a fumble on Saturday

The special famous Jameis hat-trick: Jameis [Winston] to record over a half a touchdown, half an interception and a half a fumble. I love that one. I love that way so much. That's me Saturday. I'm going to route so hard for that.

I am putting a future bet on the Cowboys to win the Super Bowl

Before we tape this podcast, I put a future bet on the Cowboys win the Super Bowl. And it's really good odds. Yeah. I mean, we just saw it last week. So that's what's freshener mind.

The Chicago Bears will beat the Kansas City Chiefs outright

I like Chicago. I like the Bears to win outright. How do you think they will ya fuck with me? I that's my entire logic behind. This is to just give you a victory that you can't do anything with.

Jameis Winston will eventually be the all-time NFL touchdown leader

I think it's going to probably be Jameis' award eventually, right? They should just name it after Jameis already. Jameis being the all-time touchdown passing leader is going to be the greatest.

The Chiefs are the forgotten team in the AFC and will be dangerous in January

It does feel like the Chiefs are kind of the forgotten team in the AFC... This is the team that I feel like we're going to get to January. I'm like, oh, yeah, remember the Chiefs?

Urban Meyer would be a bad NFL head coach

Urban Meyer in the NFL makes no sense to me... He would be bad. He would die... Urban Meyer would be Saban in the NFL. No different.

I am hoping to run a 4.6 40-yard dash

I'm hoping to hit 4-6. That would be blazing for me.

Lamar Jackson is officially the MVP

Lamar Jackson passes Michael Vick in rushing for season for quarterback. He is the MVP. It would take basically Russell Wilson, like Russell Wilson probably gonna throw seven touchdowns every single game for last three games to surpass them.

Lamar Jackson is a lock for the Madden cover

There has never been a bigger guarantee in the entire world of sports: the Lamar Jackson cover of Madden.

I would still bet on the Eagles to win the NFC East despite how bad they look

I still would probably take [the Eagles] to win the division, because they have a home game against the Cowboys, and they play the Redskins and they play the Giants. But if you had to ask me right now to put money on it, I think I'd still take the Eagles as bad as they've looked.

The Bears will win out and the Vikings will lose out

The Bears gonna win out and the Vikings are going to start losing out. So I'm not worried about the Rams as much as a Viking just falling flat on their face.

The Titans will win the AFC South if they beat the Texans next week

I think if they beat the Texans on Sunday... they're going to win the AFC South. Okay, if they win this game... because the Titans have the distinct feel of a team that fully believes they're not only good but maybe even better than they are.

Lane Kiffin will eventually coach at Alabama

He is he's gonna end up being like the coach of, Alabama... This is it feels like this is his second to last spot... he's very clearly looking at something else and I think that something else is Alabama.

LSU and Clemson will meet in the National Championship game

I actually think it's gonna be LSU Clemson in the final... yeah I'm going to agree I mean this might take a loan out.

The Bears now have a 75% chance of making the playoffs

I must say the Bears now have a 75% chance of making the playoffs.

Lamar Jackson will be the NFL MVP and Joe Burrow will win the Heisman

Lamar Jackson is probably going to be the MVP right? Joe Burrow is likely going to be the Heisman. This I think will be the first year that the Heisman winner would be older than the NFL MVP.

Jerry Jones will not fire Jason Garrett this season because they are in first place

He's not going to fire Jason Garrett this season... because they're still in first place and still control their own destiny, you can't fire him.

The Rams will beat the Seahawks because Sean McVay owns Pete Carroll's defense

Here's Sean McVay's offenses against the Seahawks the last four times: 29 points, 33 points, 36 points, 42 points. The Rams for whatever reason it is can figure out how to attack Pete Carroll's defense... I'll take the Rams.

The Buccaneers will finish 8-8 and franchise tag Jameis Winston

My favorites the Bucks. I think the Bucks are going to finish 8-8 I do. I think Jameis is going to get franchise tagged. I do, I hope so I really do.

If Utah wins and Georgia loses, Utah will make the College Football Playoff

I think as long as Utah wins and Georgia loses, they're going to get the four spot... The committee has been ranking them based on being a complete team... Utah has been dominant all season long.

The Chicago Bears are definitely going to make the playoffs

The Bears are going to make the playoffs. So Thursday night tune in. If the Bears lose, devastation... my team is still alive, just say fuck it and let's just hope that the best thing possible happens because then at least you get to watch games that feel meaningful. I've convinced myself fully.

NFL kicking will improve in 10 years because kids are giving up on American soccer

In 10 years kicking will be back because they all be like 'we suck at soccer, I'm not playing soccer anymore.' The giving up of soccer... any kid with a giant leg right now is 'fuck this, get this futebol shit off my television.'

The Ravens will be the AFC's number one seed and the Super Bowl will go through Baltimore.

But as of right now, if the playoffs started today, the Ravens would be the one seed and the Super Bowl would go through Baltimore.

The Tennessee Titans are capable of winning a playoff game.

I think the Titans might win a playoff game. They're real motherfuckers to play against. They are.

The Indianapolis Colts' season is officially over.

The Colts season is now over. They're not going to make the playoffs. They're 6-6, and they've lost.

Daniel Jones stinks and Pat Shurmur is a 'dead man walking'.

Daniel Jones stinks and Pat Shurmur is a dead man walking. Pat Shurmur, update on where Pat Shurmur is with the entire New York Giants organization. He is at the level where he's talking about how they're historically young team. So that is the last bargaining level of a coach about to get fired.
