Takes

Dak Prescott is a legitimate NFL MVP candidate

Dak Prescott's playing way better than last year. He is playing out of his mind. Like, and I know he probably won't win the MVP because the MVP's gonna go to the one seed... I'm just saying Dak Prescott. I mean, he's playing phenomenal, phenomenal football.

DK Metcalf is the fastest dude in the NFL

DK [Metcalf] had a hell of a game... they said that he reached a speed of like 22.2 miles per hour, which is 0.2 miles per hour faster than Tyreek Hill has been with the ball this year. And for DK to be faster than Tyreek Hill, despite the fact that he outweighs him by, what do you think? 50 pounds? Is insane. It's insane that, that's the fastest dude in the NFL.

Every NFC South coach who doesn't win the division will be fired

Whoever wins the NFC South will not fire their coach going into next season. Agreed. Every other team will... I'm not saying that they should... we can say the entire NFC South is coaching for their job.

I've staked my entire reputation on Joe Flacco possibly being elite — and the Browns OC says he still has an elite arm

Per the offensive coordinator of the Browns, Alex Van Pelt, he said Flacco still has an elite arm. Listen, I've staked my entire reputation on Joe Flacco possibly being elite.

The 49ers will beat the Eagles this Sunday, but the Eagles will win the NFC Championship rematch

The Eagles have the defense... played 92 snaps on Sunday. That's a lot of snaps... I feel like the Niners have this game circled more than the Eagles can. And I think that like, this will be the NFC championship game in the Eagles will probably beat them in the NFC championship game. But I feel like this Sunday it's Niners.

I will never officially retire from the NFL

I don't think I would ever retire. Oh. Oh... I'm one of those guys... if I were to come back at that particular point in time, it would be just for the fans... I'm just waiting on somebody to tick me off.

I could catch 10 passes in an NFL game today if I played tight end

I mean, at tight end? Sure. I could get 10 catches receiver three... slant back shoulder type... being savvy and understand how to get in certain positions.

The Bears should put Justin Fields in a high-gear, uptempo offense

I would have that fucker in high gear. High gear... I think a beneficiary who would benefit off of a uptempo offense is Justin Fields. Because a tired lineman... does not want to run around trying to chase a quarterback. When they do uptempo and they let him like be himself, he looks great.

Peyton Manning did the NFL a disservice by creating an unrealistic standard for athletic quarterbacks

Peyton Manning did this league a disservice... by having like, you know, 350 yards passing... All right, here comes Michael Vick. Here comes a Cam Newton... athletic quarterbacks that we're going to get the yards elsewhere... it's not the prototypical way. We're used to seeing yards being made.

The Broncos' 2023 turnaround is 100% because Russell Wilson never folded as a leader

This season turned around. It starts with leadership and it starts with one guy, Russell Wilson... he doesn't change, he doesn't fold even when it fucking hurts... he stayed the same... my theory is that the turnaround happened because Russell Wilson and his unwavering faith, he never folded even when it hurt.

The Eminem song 'FACK' is the worst song of all time

I downloaded Eminem's song. Fac. FACK And it is maybe the worst song of all time, right? It's, it's so bad. I actually do think it's the worst song of all time.

The Bears are no longer a million pieces away from being a good football team

For the first time in a very long time, I'm optimistic about the Chicago Bears and where they're headed because I think you can build off of what they've done defensively... we're no longer just like a million pieces away. We're a few pieces away from being a good football team.

Josh Dobbs should not learn the playbook to be a better quarterback

He maybe should just not learn the playbook because... when he was in Arizona, he had been signed to the Cardinals like two weeks before the season started and played well... maybe it's just learning the playbook is too much.

The loss to Michigan was the worst loss for the Ohio State fan base ever

I actually think this might be the worst loss for a fan base ever in Ohio State... If they had won on Saturday, they could have all gone around and said, the only reason you beat us was 'cause you cheated. And the minute you couldn't cheat anymore, all the normalcy has been restored. Now Michigan... gets to be like, you guys cried, you bitched, you moaned, you started investigations and we still just ran the ball down your throat.

Arch Manning is so good that his receivers can't catch his passes

I think Arch Manning might be too good of a quarterback. I don't think that there are receivers out there that are good enough to play with Arch Manning. He had two touchdown passes... that were just fucking laser beams right on their hands bounced off their hands. It was too good of a ball.

Florida State will get screwed out of the playoff because of ratings

Florida State will get fucked... they want to have big names in this playoff. And right now, Florida State, even though they are a big name traditionally, they don't have the same buzz as like a Texas would have. So I'm just thinking that Florida State will get fucked unless they win by like 40 points.

The Blackhawks should hold a press conference to protect Connor Bedard from rumors

The Black Hawks should do a better job of making sure they protect Connor Bedard at all costs. And you're, he's your franchise player. Maybe just do a press conference and explain what happened [with Corey Perry].

Florida State shouldn't automatically be in the playoff just because they are undefeated

The loss of Jordan Travis to me is pretty significant... We live in an era where it's like, okay, they're undefeated, so they're in because they're in a Power five. I just don't do that. I'm really big on the best four teams... If you think Florida State's one of the best teams with Tate Rodemaker, then that's no problem. But I'm just not big on, they're undefeated so we have to put 'em in.

Ryan Day definitely has a Michigan problem

He definitely has a Michigan problem... Ohio State lived in Michigan's head for a number of years... and Jim Harbaugh, to his credit... has completely turned this thing around. If I were Ryan Day... I would suggest maybe looking at finding more Ohio guys that qualified to be on the roster to make them appreciate what this game really means.

Jayden Daniels should win the Heisman Trophy

I have Jayden Daniels winning... He has been by far, when you think of a Heisman winner and you watch his plays, that's the guy you think of. In my opinion, it should go to the most dynamic playmaker and that player has been Jayden Daniels up to this point.

Al Michaels hears the social media criticism and thinks it is bullshit

Al hears it. He disagrees with it... Social media is using those two examples [Jacksonville playoff game and Denver game] to just say Al Michaels hates Thursday night, Al Michaels has lost it... He hears the noise, I don't think he's like 'I'll show them'. He has more of an f-you attitude about it. He thinks it's a bunch of bullshit.

Justin Tucker might be washed

Justin Tucker just missed a easy kick. He might be, is he washed? Washed? He might be washed. Yeah. He's on washed watch. He might, he might be washed.

Jordan Love might actually be good

Jordan Love might actually be good. And it's starting to scare me. He might actually be good. And this is the difference between dysfunctional franchises and functional franchises like the Green Bay Packers... I think Jordan Love might be good. And it's starting to worry me. He looked a lot better.

The Packers will probably get to 9 or 10 wins and make the playoffs

The Packers are gonna probably get to nine or 10 wins. And I'm gonna have to, I'm gonna have to kill myself... I think Jordan Love might be good... at five and six, I don't know, man, I'm a little nervous.

The Cowboys could win the Super Bowl

I I think the Cowboys could win the Super Bowl. Yeah, definitely. Without a doubt... Cowboys could a hundred percent win the Super Bowl. I'm not downplaying that at all. I still think the 49ers are better. I think the Eagles are better. But depending how on how it all shakes out. The Cowboys are, they're in that conversation.

Brock Purdy is now a gunslinger

Is Brock Purdy now a gunslinger? Ooh. Has he transitioned from being a game manager? A guy that won't lose you a game to like, you know, then he was a system quarterback for a little bit and then he went and got so much moxie that I think he might be part gunslinger.

Aaron Rodgers held the Jets hostage by suggesting a return this season

I'm starting to just toss around the idea that [Aaron Rodgers] saying that he's going to come back this year might've hurt the Jets a little bit in the fact that they didn't go out and try to get another quarterback... Did Aaron Rodgers hold you guys hostage this year?

The Dolphins will be 11-3 heading into Christmas

Listen, [the Dolphins] have a chance to really get in a groove here. They've Commanders, Titans, Jets. Ooh, there, there's a very good chance they're 11 and three heading into Christmas.

The AFC South is the future conference of quarterbacks

I'm willing to say that the AFC South, that is the Future Conference of quarterbacks. The Young Guns... Stroud and Lawrence. This game was awesome... I'm very excited to watch the Jags and the Texans play for the next 30 years.

Shane Steichen is the Coach of the Year

The Colts getting to nine, possibly 10 wins, which is crazy. This is Shane Steichen, coach of the year. Yeah. Him, coach of the year.

I don't want Caleb Williams on the Patriots

I don't want Caleb Williams. I'll say it right now. Really? Oh, oh, fingernails. Was it the crying? It's the crying thing. I, I have no problem with the fingernails, but I don't, I don't really have a problem with the crying. I just don't know. I feel like there's just a lot of character issues.

The Panthers won't win another game

I don't think the Panthers are gonna win a game again... at Buccaneers: loss. at Saints: loss. Falcons: loss. Packers: loss. at Jaguars: loss. Probably Buccaneers again [loss].

Rashee Rice will emerge as the primary receiver for the Chiefs

This is the old visualization trick... it's late December. And Aaron Andrews is like, talk to me about how these young receivers have come along. And then they show a highlighter Rashee Rice just like ripping people up. And that's exactly what's gonna happen.

The Eagles are lucky, but they make their own luck

They're lucky, but they're lucky all the time. Right. Which means that they're doing things to make themselves lucky. And they, which is such a good trait to have for a team. Right?

Sean McDermott has the coaching yips

Sean McDermott, it's, he, he's, I honestly think he has like the coaching yips right now... [He's] making no sense. And then they go and they kneel it and they play chicken shit football for overtime.

Greg Popovich's move to stop fans from booing was great sportsmanship

My who's back is sportsmanship. Oh. Last week in San Antonio, Greg Popovich during Kawhi Leonard's free throws... he hopped on the mic and he told the fans to stop booing... It was sportsmanship at its finest.

The Eagles are already Super Bowl champions

Congratulations to the Eagles for getting the one seed. I don't see them losing the Max. Congratulations. Eagles. super Bowl champions.

Trading Tyreek Hill was a smart long-term move for the Chiefs

I also think the Chiefs made a calculated move to essentially say, we know that with Patrick Mahomes, he's gonna be the franchise quarterback for 15, maybe 20 years. We have to evolve and stay ahead of this like trading Tyreek Hill for a bunch of draft picks... I have no problem with like, people are complaining that they got rid of Tyreek Hill. Well, yeah, I think that was a smart move for the next five, 10 years instead of right now.

The Lions will whop the Packers on Thanksgiving

I don't think the Lions offense will look bad that bad, two games in a row. I think this might be a whopping by Lions. I think WIC qualifies as a whomping... I think it's like 17 plus in the NFL.

Turkey belongs on Thanksgiving and you shouldn't try to replace it with steak

Turkey on Thanksgiving is what you do. You have to keep doing it. If you start doing steak on Thanksgiving, it now diminishes steak... Let's not try to reinvent the wheel. That's When, you eat Turkey. There's no other time really to eat Turkey. Eat steak all year.

Stuffing is the best Thanksgiving side and should be eaten more often

I want to stand out on a soapbox and pound my chest for stuffing. Oh it's stuffing is the best... we should eat stuffing way more frequently than we do. It's the best.

Dolphins will kill the Jets on Black Friday

I said this on Sunday. I'll say it again. I think the Dolphins, they have been taken out a, a fraud watch for me. I think they're very much for real and I think they will kill the Jets. We have Tim Boyle. It's Tim Boyle time.

USMNT coach Gregg Berhalter stinks and should be fired

My Hot Seat is Greg Berhalter. Ooh. The coach of the US men's national team out. He should be out. Yeah. Hot Seat Greg. He lost to Trinidad in Tobago. Can't do that... He stinks. We brought him back. He doesn't get along with any of the best players on the team. Fire Greg. Fire him.

You cannot leave an undefeated Florida State out of the College Football Playoff

If Florida State can be kept out if they're undefeated? I don't think you can... They won't leave out an undefeated Florida state. I'm pretty confident. And if they do, like everything's a mockery. Because you, you, it doesn't matter who's starting quarter, if they win all their games in a Power five conference, like you're essentially saying games don't matter.

The NFL will eventually face a massive gambling lawsuit over flawed injury reporting

I've been sounding that alarm... If you're gonna make millions from legalized gambling and you're gonna have an injury reporting system that is flawed, that is broken, that isn't enforced, and somebody eventually hides an injury... If I bet on the Bengals and the Bengals hid that information, that would be very relevant to me... they've gotta enforce that rule or they're gonna end up in a massive lawsuit. It's just a matter of time.

Bill Belichick will be the Commanders head coach in 2024

I think what'll happen behind the scenes, over the course of the next six, seven weeks, they'll work out a deal... Watch Bill Belichick to the commanders after the season. I believe it's gonna happen.

Travis Kelce might surprise retire after this season to pursue stardom

I look the guy is thinking about his next career... you gotta know when to make the transition and when the window's open... and it may be that the window for him is never more open than it is right now, or will be after this season.

The Falcons will win the NFC South starting with a win this Sunday

I have a theory. I think the Falcons are gonna be good... after the buy. I think it starts right now... I think they're gonna win the NFC South. I think it starts on Sunday.

The Bills will make the playoffs and win 2 of their next 3 tough games

I think the Bills are gonna win. I think the Bills are gonna win two out of their next three. Which are at Chiefs. At Eagles at Chiefs versus Cowboys. I think the Bills are going to make the playoffs... everything that could've gone wrong to start their season went wrong... I think the Bills are gonna get back in the conversation.

Max is a crybaby loser for accusing me of cheating at the Lottery Ball

What Max is displaying right now is everything that's wrong with this country... Max is an excuse guy. Max is a loser. If he loses a game, instead of saying, I lost the game, he says, oh, well they cheated... It's pathetic. It's cowardly and it's disgusting... I will take away the, the, the winning 71... I will win it without looking at it before Max does.
