Shannon Sharpe Gives His Honest Thoughts On Stetson Bennett

by

Shannon Sharpe was watching the National Championship game last night, just like millions of sports fans. As many of you know by now, the Georgia Bulldogs won their second-straight title. This came against the TCU Horned Frogs, who were awful throughout the game. In fact, the final score was 65-7.

Georgia quarterback Stetson Bennett did a great job as he scored four touchdowns and over 300 yards. The 25-year-old is now graduating, and he could very well be on his way to the NFL. However, he has not received the hype you would expect from a two-time National Championship winner.

Shannon Sharpe Reacts

Overall, Bennett just isn’t that type of recruit. However, Sharpe does see some potential for the Georgia star. On Undisputed, Sharpe made it clear that other back-to-back champions haven’t had much NFL success. Although this is the case, he still thinks Bennett deserves an invitation to a team’s training camp.

“I don’t know if he’ll be drafted, but I do believe that based on his resume, someone will give him an opportunity to come into camp as a street free agent and see what he can do,” Sharpe said.

If Bennett does get drafted, it will likely be in the later rounds. This doesn’t necessarily mean defeat though, as Tom Brady became the best player ever despite being taken in the sixth round. Sure, Bennett is not Brady, however, he has proven himself to be a winner. In the NFL, being a leader who can win ball games goes a long way, and some teams out there could use that in the locker room.

Let us know where you think Bennett should go, in the comments section down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from around the sports world.

Overall, it was a very dangerous situation that led to a miraculous recovery. After subsequently being put on a ventilator, Hamlin was able to regain motor function and has since left Cincinnati.

Hamlin received an outpouring of support over the weekend, especially with his Bills taking on the Patriots. Eventually, his team won 35-23 and they secured the second seed in the AFC. The Bills are positioned to go all the way this year, and fans cannot wait to see how this all plays out.

Rob Gronkowski Changes Course On Retirement Stance

by

Rob Gronkowski is easily one of the best tight ends to ever play the game. He and Tom Brady played some amazing football together and even won four Super Bowls as a duo. Unfortunately, Gronk is retired from the game of football, and Brady clearly misses him.

However, Gronk has teased a potential return to the game. On a few occasions, he has even said that he was bored. Subsequently, this led to some offers from different teams. Although, Gronk wasn’t exactly jumping at the bit to take these teams up on their calls to action.

Is Rob Gronkowski Coming Back?

Interestingly enough, in a new interview with TMZ, Gronkowski noted that he could very well make an NFL comeback. Of course, it is going to take a lot of money to make this happen. Gronk says he would need to be paid like a QB, although we all know that is not going to happen.

“Like Dumb and Dumber, baby. You’re sayin’ there’s a chance,” Gronkowski said. “You never know. What if someone wanted to throw the whole salary cap at me, baby, or half of the salary cap, then you gotta think about it. Throw me some quarterback money. Then you’re talking, so there’s always a possibility.”

Brady certainly could have used Rob Gronkowski this season. The Buccaneers QB struggled throughout the year, and he even finished with an 8-9 record. Regardless, the Bucs are headed to the playoffs where they hope to get in a few upsets.

Be sure to keep it locked to HNHH for all of the latest news from around the sports world. Additionally, let us know which team you think Gronk should play for, in the comments section down below. We’re sure plenty of fanbases would love to have him.

by

If you are a sports fan who enjoys video games, you know that the Madden series is incredibly popular. Every single year, EA Sports reveals a brand new edition of the game with updated rosters. Overall, fans have grown tired of the yearly sports games, mostly because it feels like the quality actually worsens.

As many of you already know, Damar Hamlin suffered a medical emergency last week. After collapsing on the field, Hamlin required CPR to be resuscitated. Subsequently, he was saved and spent a week in the hospital before being released. With all of this in mind, it is easy to see why fans want the animation removed.

Madden Takes Action

According to a new report from the likes of TMZ, EA Sports is pledging to get rid of the celebration. The developer has noted that they understand the concerns. Furthermore, fans can expect the celebration to be gone following the next update which takes place later this week.

Quavo Storms The Field After Georgia Wins The National Championship

by

Quavo is one of the biggest Georgia Bulldogs fans in the world. Throughout the last few years, Georgia has consistently been part of the Final Four. Whenever they play or make it to the National Championship, the artist is there to cheer the team on. As you can imagine, that was certainly true on Monday as the Bulldogs were looking to go back-to-back.

Overall, it wasn’t much of a game as the Bulldogs unleashed on the TCU Horned Frogs. TCU were underdogs, however, they didn’t even put up a fight. The final score was 65-7, and if you are a Georgia fan, it was a momentous occasion. Although, for the Horned Frogs, it was an indictment of their high ranking.

Tom Brady To Be Heavily Pursued By This Team

by

Tom Brady is going into the playoffs with a chip on his shoulder. He is the best player in the history of the sport, however, he didn’t have the best season. At times, he simply looked pedestrian. As a result, it felt like the Buccaneers had no chance of winning the title.

Although, Tom Brady knows how to get it going when it matters most. His team is poised for a playoff run and with the Dallas Cowboys as their first opponent, they want to make a big statement. Overall, they should be favored, even if the Cowboys were good down the stretch. After all, these are the Cowboys we are talking about here.

What Will Tom Brady Do?

Tom Brady has a big decision to make in the offseason. Of course, he will be a come an unrestricted free agent. This means he can either retire or simply go to another team. As you can imagine, there are plenty of teams out there who would want to pursue the NFL legend.

According to a report from Albert Breer, it was revealed that one team who will look closely at Brady is the Las Vegas Raiders. They are going to be trading Derek Carr which means they need a quarterback. Brady fits that bill perfectly, although if they don’t land him, they will settle for Jimmy Garoppolo.

Going to the Raiders would probably be a hard sell for Tom Brady. After all, he is someone who wants to win. The Raiders do not have the pieces to go out and win a title, so bringing in Brady wouldn’t exactly move the needle.

Let us know what you think Brady should do, in the comments down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from around the NFL world.

Aaron Rodgers Hints At Retirement Again

by

Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers were eliminated from playoff contention last night. It was certainly a rough go for Packers fans, as they lost by four points to the Detroit Lions. They needed to win to get in, however, Rodgers ended up coming short after a lackluster performance.

As a whole, this season was not kind to Rodgers. He struggled with his rookie receivers at the start of the year, and by the time they got chemistry, it was just a bit too late. Overall, it was a bad way to end the season, especially after being a perennial threat to win the Super Bowl.

Aaron Rodgers Retiring?

Just like in seasons past, Rodgers is now hinting at retirement. He typically does this whenever he is eliminated from the playoffs. However, now he is doing it after not making the playoffs, entirely. In the clip below, courtesy of TMZ Sports, you can see exactly what Rodgers had to say after his team lost to the Lions. Overall, he sounds pretty dejected.

“At some point the carousel comes to a stop and it’s time to get off,” Rodgers said. “I feel good about what I’ve accomplished in this league and wouldn’t have any regrets walking away. But I gotta see what it feels like once I get away from this.”

Rodgers had signed an extension last summer after indicating that he wanted to be traded. Clearly, Rodgers was just saying that for leverage, and it ultimately worked in his favor. Now, however, it is truly up in the air as to whether or not he will ever return.

Let us know what you think Rodgers should do, in the comments below. Additionally, keep it locked to HNHH for more news and updates from around the sports world.

Aaron Rodgers Brutally Roasted By Lions TikTok Account

by

Aaron Rodgers is a quarterback who has been heavily criticized over the last few years. Much of this has been due to the fact that he refused to get vaccinated. He lied about his immunization status, and it has led to a whole lot of roasting on social media.

Overall, Rodgers has had a fairly off year with the Green Bay Packers. Just a few weeks ago, this team had no shot of making it to the playoffs. They had suffered multiple bad losses that had Rodgers looking old. However, in recent weeks, they had picked up the pace and needed a win against the Lions on Sunday to make it to the playoffs.

In the end, Rodgers and the Packers actually came up fairly short. They lost 20-16, and now, they will not be in the postseason. Instead, the Seattle Seahawks will get their spot. Overall, it is unfortunate for Rodgers, who felt like he had some revenge to get on those who doubted his teammates.

Lions Destroy Aaron Rodgers

Previously, Rodgers had some interesting comments about the Lions and their record. He made it seem like they aren’t a team he needs to worry about. Of course, that did not sit right with the team, who promptly roasted him on social media after Sunday night’s tilt.

In the clip below, you can find a TikTok in which Rodgers and his statements are obliterated by the Lions’ social media team. The sounds that are used are quite humorous, and overall, it has to be nice if you’re a Lions fan.

Unfortunately for the Lions, they will not be going to the playoffs this year either. They finished with a 9-8 record, however, the Seahawks won on Sunday which put them over the edge for the final Wild Card spot.

Let us know what you thought of the Lions’ TikTok, in the comments down below.

Skip Bayless Continues To Try And Correct His Damar Hamlin Mistake

by

Skip Bayless has oftentimes found himself to be the center of attention. Most of the time, this is for all of the wrong reasons. Overall, Bayless seems to love having the spotlight. However, that was certainly not the case as Bayless trended online for his comments about Damar Hamlin.

Following Hamlin’s frightening and devastating injury, Bayless tweeted: “No doubt the NFL is considering postponing the rest of this game – but how?. This late in the season, a game of this magnitude is crucial to the regular-season outcome … which suddenly seems so irrelevant.”

Of course, many found this to be heinous considering what we had just witnessed on the field. Immediately after his statement, Bayless was hit with harsh criticism by many in the sports world. After years of being a troll, people finally took out their frustrations in a timely yet effective manner.

Skip Bayless Corrects Course

Since that time, Bayless has been trying to clarify what he meant. For instance, with the Bills playing the Patriots this weekend, Bayless made sure to note how insignificant this game is. Overall, he also had smoke for the Bengals, who he felt were being disrespectful about losing a game. Needless to say, Skip doesn’t want to be the bad guy.

“Happy for the Bills. Rooting for them. But hard to get too excited about the outcome of a football game,” Skip wrote. “As I said again and again on Monday night, all that matters is Damar Hamlin. Prayed for him immediately on Monday night then for his complete recovery this Sunday morning.”

Just last week, Bayless and his co-host Shannon Sharpe got into it on the air about the tweet. Sharpe said he wanted Bayless to take the tweet down, however, Bayless did not want to hear it. This subsequently led to another awkward exchange between the two.

With people running out of patience for Skip Bayless, it remains to be seen how all of this will end. At the end of the day, this is big ratings for FS1, who have been the biggest beneficiaries of the bad press.
