Chapter 1: What are the latest updates on Deshaun Watson's comeback?
NFL player, do you believe that left early or was granted one extra year of college? Let's say the COVID year, right? Even if they weren't in college during COVID. So they get an extra year of eligibility, even though they've already played in the NFL, which isn't how it works. But for the sake of this game, this is how it works. Sure.
Who do you think in the NFL presently could go back to college for a year and completely rebuild his stock and make himself a sought after player?
This is a fantastic question. Wow. I'm going to go Justin Fields. Justin Fields could go back to college right now, run a college offense, rebuild his stock, and try and convince everybody that he is better than he was drafted the first time.
Do you think that he would? No. Like, if he went back to college, you think he would dominate?
Like, if they allowed that?
Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yes. I mean, listen, he's still, I mean, as much as I don't want him to be the quarterback of my team, and he is, he's still a grown man playing in a college sport. Like, he still has five years of NFL experience to bring to a college game. But, yeah, that's my answer. Justin Fields.
Do you have one, Mike Fuentes?
I do, actually. I just thought about him right now. Is it another former Jets quarterback? No. I think he's a former NFL player at this point because I think he's out of the league. He last played in 2024 with the Eagles, but I'm going to say John Ross. You don't remember John Ross. John Ross ran a 4-2-2 at the combine. It was the fastest in history.

Okay, we'll do fives across the board. All right. My number five Super Bowl is free agency. Yeah. Free agency. My number five Super Bowl. Mikey, your number five Super Bowl.
My number five Super Bowl is Thanksgiving. Very rarely do we get good matchups, and I'm always guilted for watching it.
Okay.
By certain members of my family.
Faster.
Let's go faster.
Fuentes, your top five Super Bowl. Don't have it. Keep going. It's up to you. Okay. My number four Thanksgiving. Yeah, it's my number four because I get excited about it. I like the idea of it, but I also get taken away from the games oftentimes. By the time we get to the late game, I'm kind of tired. I don't really pay attention. So my number five Super Bowl is Thanksgiving.
Or my number four Super Bowl. Too much explaining.
Gotta be faster.

Chapter 7: What are the hosts' top five Super Bowls of the year?
He will be.
By the way, speaking of all this, our friends over at The Athletic, they did a lot of research. They crunched the numbers.
Oh, I love crunching numbers.
And they came up with this. Out of the last 25 years, 15 times the quarterback who was taken first in that draft wasn't the best quarterback in the draft.
Hmm.
So only 10 times in the last 25 years was the quarterback taken first, the best quarterback from that draft.
Who were the quarterbacks that were?
That were taken first and were the best? Yeah. Trevor Lawrence, Joe Burrow, Kyler Murray, Jameis Winston. Carson Palmer, Andrew Luck, Cam Newton, Sam Bradford, Matt Stafford, Matt Ryan. Those are the 10 that were considered the best. Now they used a lot of different metrics to... Yeah, who was in the Jameis draft?
uh Marcus Mariota was number two I know that yeah now there there there are times where so like uh Jamarcus Russell was taken first but they have Trent Edwards listed as the best quarterback in that draft in other words hopefully your team did not draft a quarterback in 2007 yeah hmm
