The Knicks' success has exposed an uncomfortable truth...
New York contains a staggering number of degenerate men in their 20s, whose hobbies appear to consist of drinking and fighting in public, climbing and trashing things, and confusing antisocial behavior with civic pride.
Mike Evans on having Brock Purdy as his quarterback:
“I love Brock, man. He’s a big reason why I came here and I said that in my initial zoom call with you guys. He throws a really great ball. I’m getting the timing down with him now. He’s super smart. He’s about his business. I’m looking forward to having a great connection with him this year.”
ESPN lists Brock Purdy as one of their MVP candidates for the 2026 season
“You can’t argue with Purdy’s numbers when he has been on the field. His 69.7 QBR over the past four seasons ranks second behind only Josh Allen in that span. The Kyle Shanahan offense might be a hindrance to Purdy getting MVP votes, but one could make the same argument against Stafford with Sean McVay or Caleb Williams (the other QB I considered here) with Ben Johnson. And it didn’t seem to hold the Rams QB back in last season's vote.”
#49ers HC Kyle Shanahan on Mike Evans:
"I mean, Mike's a Hall-of-Fame receiver, so his experience of the game, what he has done in this league, just the respect he's earned that's different. I haven't had many guys like that except for Andre Johnson and Julio Jones just with the career he's had so far.
And just what's unique about Mike is his get-off, how he can attack down the field and I've never been around a guy that is that tall with that long of arms, the competitor he is. So, I'm excited to have the person in our offense and the talent."
Christian McCaffrey on possibly having his workload reduced this season:
“Look, nobody ever wants to hear that you’re going to get the ball less. No coach has ever planned how many touches I get. I’ve never had that conversation with any one of my coaches that we want to give you this many touches. That’s like telling a 3-point shooter that we only want you to shoot five 3s this game. You just don’t do that… It’s probably a load management thing for them more than anything, but my job is not to focus on that at all. It’s just to be ready for 10 touches or 35, whatever the game calls for. So when Shanahan says that stuff I don’t get mad at all. I don’t get mad or sad or whatever. I just train and prepare to have 35 touches a game and not come out.”

Fred Warner on Christian McCaffrey:
“I don’t think he’ll ever get the appreciation that he truly deserves. When you’re a teammate of his, and you get to actually see the way that he prepares— day in and day out, whether it’s the offseason, in-season, the things he does is just UNREAL. The level of dedication, commitment and the obsession about wanting to be the best. He’ll turn over every single stone he can to try and find an edge. He does everything correct so there’s no chance he doesn’t play at his best every single Sunday.”

Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch talk about when they knew Brock Purdy was going to be legit. Kyle also confirmed that they gave Brock a 4th round grade heading into the 2022 draft
Kyle after Brock’s first game against the Dolphins:
“That night in bed, than might’ve been the first time where I was like 'We might have something special', because I was so sick because I thought we had such a good team and Trey Lance was already on IR and Jimmy Garoppolo just broke his ankle… I’m home that night not even thinking about the game, I was just like how we’re down to our last quarterback. We had such a good team and once I stopped thinking about it in bed, I was like 'Holy shit. Brock played unbelievable tonight'.”

Brock Purdy on working with WR De'Zhaun Stribling:
“The rookies are in and we’re all working. Stribling is a guy that has a lot of raw talent. Throwing routes on air to him and getting a feel for how he moves and his speed. He’s a guy that once we get him into the playbook a lot and get reps with each other on the field, I feel like he’s gonna be a guy that can come in and make an instant impact.”

Osa Odighizuwa on his goals for the 2026 season:
“I definitely want to make a deep playoff run and get to the dance. I want to get that ring for sure. Being on a team that has been to the Super Bowl in two of the last six seasons is very hopeful. Last year they made it to the second round of the playoffs with a bunch of guys hurt, just bringing guys like Dre Greenlaw back, bringing me in, and Mike Evans, it’s awesome because it’s being part of that cavalry.
As far as my personal goals, I’m not gonna touch too much on that. I know what they are, and I just know for the past 5 years, I haven’t scratched the surface of the player that I am. It hasn’t been put on full display and I plan on putting that on full display.”
