Power 2 Overdrive continues, powered by FanDuel, bringing you everything from the opening line of the final score. Confirm or deny a little bit later in the hour. Jeff, Saturday coming up. We still have to break down the Mark Davis gear from last night. What I want to know is... what was the expression on Brady's face when he saw that guy's gear picking him up in the car?
Because Brady is... I just want to break things down here with this cat. Starting with his wheels. He has a sketcher shoe on, okay? And look, you can wear what you want, but the guy's a billionaire. A sketcher shoe with just like a Mark's Work Warehouse trouser. And then some type of secondhand white blazer. That's not tailored. He's holding a hat that he got at a golf tournament.
And the mullet, like the Lloyd Christmas is insane-o world. Like I just don't, like good hair can kind of make or break you. And he just kicks, he tops it all off with a Lloyd Christmas bowl cut. Yeah. I don't understand it. Like if he kind of had some kind of cool hairdo, it could save him. It could save him. Well, yes, it would go a long way in doing that.
The hair is just, he's established it, right? That's his trademark. That's his cut. Good luck. It's a spectacular look.

Chapter 2: What insights does Jeff Saturday provide on Josh Allen's performance?
It's distinctive. It's not a good look. It's trademark. You would think, and I offer some advice once in a while, just if I don't like a tie, I like a tie. Hey, that's just my personality. How has Brady not pulled him aside and said, we're going to give you a full makeover, and I'm going to make you look cool. Let's go. We'll get a stylist.
We'll go to a mall, and I can't walk around with you looking like this. It's insane, dude. Put that image up again. Brady is trolling around with this guy at events. The juxtaposition between this guy and Brady is as extreme as it gets. Brady would be in a $25,000 suit. With a $250,000 watch on, hair that is dialed, shoes that are one of one. Someone made them specifically for him.
I mean, Brady almost looks fake now. It's too far over. He looks AI. Yeah, he almost looks AI. When you actually look at Brady, his face today compared to when he came into the league, it's a completely different person.
It does.
It looks like he's actually had work done, which is insane. Yes. You think he has? Well... Come on, dude. How is that natural? How at 50 can you look more youthful than you do when you're 23 years old? Joe, find the shot. Find Brady in the booth. There's Brady dialed in. And there's Mark Davis. I guess he just goes in there probably every week and gets the exact same haircut.
Because I don't think there's ever a hair out of place. Maybe it's like a Godfather thing. You know the old mafia guys would go get their hair cut every single day. Maybe he goes every single day at like 5 in the morning. He goes for a shave and a cut. But I would just like to crawl in to Tom Brady's brain.
In the back of a limo, when he just looks to his left when they're having a convo, and he just has a good once-over of that guy's skull. Like, he must just think, I go to battle with this guy. Yeah, yeah. Like, if they ever win a Super Bowl, those two are going to be partying together. And parading down Las Vegas Boulevard. Oh, yes. Late night parties, everything. And that guy's your wingman.
Well, like the jacket I have such an appreciation for because it is right off the rack and nowhere close to appropriately sized. No. You know, like for a guy who is worth billions. Dude, it's a Plato's Closet jacket. Like there's all kinds of weird stuff at Plato's Closet. And he got that there. And the Skecher Monarch version... It is a crazy-ass look, man.
I just would love to know what Brady, when he does a once-over, like when Davis is talking to somebody and Brady just goes up and down once, I want to know what goes through his head. It would be amazing. Oh, Doug, I'll tell you what. You hang around the pro sports. You come in contact with some pretty rich people. And one thing you notice, not a lot of people like to tell billionaires the truth.

Chapter 3: How does Jeff Saturday assess Fernando Mendoza's potential in the NFL?
That effectively said, hey, this team's not as good as you guys think it is. And they didn't maybe want to hear that. Leaners don't want to hear the truth, man. Yeah. They don't. That's the truth. Don't tell them the truth, because guess what happens when you do? Trouble. Yeah. Trouble. All right. Confirm or deny coming up. Best Bets later this hour. Overdrive continues up on YouTube Live.
I can neither confirm or deny that this is in fact a segment. Austin trades Andrew Raycroft to Toronto in exchange for the rights to Tuka Rask. It's been my honor and a privilege to serve as the general manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs Hockey Club. It's time for Confirm or Deny. Do you regret giving all those gentlemen the no trades or no movement clauses? I can neither confirm or deny that.
I can't confirm or deny that.
All right, confirm or deny. Very simple stuff. Statements are made. We go around the table. We either confirm them or we deny them. All right? We're all ready to go? Let's go. Confirm or deny. The Maple Leafs should sign Bobby McMahon, Scott Lawton, and Troy Stetcher to extensions. All three get an extension. All three? I'm going to have to start on this one, and I am going to deny on all three.
I think Troy Stetcher, I love his energy. If he wants to sign something to kind of be... Look, as good as he's played, I'm sure people need to understand this, or they do understand this, that he is a guy... And it just happens with every organization he goes to. He comes in, he plays well, and you don't fall in love, but you're like, man, this guy's awesome. He can skate, he can move the puck.
And then come a playoff series, he doesn't play. So there's a reason for it, right? If he wants to sign some kind of depth contract where, I don't know, he is one of those guys who's in and out of the lineup, I'd have no problem with it. Scotty Lawton and a lot of people have complaining about the first-round pick. He's played damn well the last couple months. I really like the way he's played.
What number he gets to, I don't know. Bobby McMahon, same thing. You want to pay Bobby McMahon $5 million on a long-term deal? If that's something you want to do... I don't know. There's some inconsistencies there where he winds up on the fourth line and you wonder what you got and you're still paying him $5 million. So I don't know.
If there's inconsistencies at the age of 30 where you go up and down the lineup and your offense disappears for a while, that's kind of what you are. But if you believe that it's worth $5 million to it and you need that roster spot filled by Bobby McMahon making five cheats, then that's what you've got to do. Yeah, I'm going to deny it, too. I'm with O-Dog.
There's a lot of question marks about all three of these guys, right? And look, Scotty Lawton's been great of late, but didn't give them what they hoped he'd give them in the playoffs last year after spending the first-round pick that everybody talks about as a very expensive price.

Chapter 4: What factors contribute to a quarterback's success in the NFL?
Okay, what are you thinking? Fine, we'll give it to you. That is a real back and forth. You know what he's thinking, though, Brian? He's thinking, I'm 30, I'm going to cash.
Possibly.
Possibly. And maybe he will, but maybe he won't. Maybe he gets to the offseason and there's not the market that he thinks because he's 30, and at times he plays on the fourth line like you pointed out. So, you know, if I'm the Leafs, I'm pushing for not a hometown discount, but I'm trying to win that negotiation. The same thing with Lawton. Like, Lawton's not a young guy.
Lawton's a fourth-line player on this team. Like, you got to be reasonable. You know, I like him a lot. I think he's played really well. I think he's been good. I like his kind of attitude, his approach. I like that he plays with some fire. I think he's got a different kind of personality on the ice that holds a lot of value here. But he's playing like 12 minutes a night.
There's only so much you're willing to give in to grant him that extension. And Stetcher is a classic example of only in Toronto. Like, oh, you mentioned it, I think, last week when we were talking about Matthews and his comments to Masters about Marner, and we disagreed with how he handled that. But you said this is the kind of thing in Carolina you'd never ā Here's another example.
A guy plucked off waivers is not talking extension six weeks later in Carolina. That is complete Joe from the Bridge fabrication slash buildup, and it's insane. It's crazy to be even suggesting it. Dude, you know what people say in Carolina about a guy that's picked off waivers? They're like, I can't wait until this guy's gone.
Yeah.
We never have to watch him again. Here, it's extension. Yes, it's insanity, and it's a sign of the market that it's even a conversation. Troy Stead, like, an extension? Unless it's a two-way. Here's what it's also a sign of. It's a sign that they have no defensive depth. All the guys, like... We said at the beginning of the year they had six guys and number seven ain't pretty, right?
No, it's not. That's why Troy Stetra's here. Valid, and I think it might be a sign of possibly the future of Chris Tanev and the concerns about his future and what could be happening with him and what's going to happen with him. We don't know. But there is some concern there. I get that. But at some point, hopefully Danford is a guy that's prepared to play. Right shot defenseman on the right side.

Chapter 5: What are the implications of the Bills' head coaching search?
But clearly, if there was a power struggle or if Pagula had to choose between who was at fault here and who did he trust more, he chose Bean.
And that's why McDermott's no longer working.
That one guy gets fired and the one other guy gets elevated. I find that to be crazy. And that doesn't give me a good feeling, O-Dog, that these guys are on the precipice of winning a Super Bowl next year. Yeah, I worry about Pagoula. I have this bookmarked here. Tim Graham wrote a piece in The Athletic
about Pagula not knowing about an executive that used to work for the team and now works for the team. That's really concerning stuff. If you've got an owner who's like... I'll read it here.
Chapter 6: What does Jeff Saturday think about the Bills' offseason strategies?
Pagula was always miffed by angry fan sentiment that Russ Brandon meddled with football decisions and once asked me why people think a business executive would have such influence. I said it stemmed from the three years Brandon was Bill's GM under Ralph Wilson's ownership from 08 through 10. Pagula pushed back about that being true. He did not know Brandon was once the GM of the team he owned.
Well, he was the owner at the time, but yeah, you probably should know the rough outline of history. You're from Buffalo. You claim you're a Bill's fan. You didn't know the GM of the team. It wasn't back in the 70s. Anyway, I mean, the point being is the guy, Pagula is a bean guy, and we'll see what comes of it. I want to confirm this because I want to believe in Josh Allen.
I want to believe in a lot of different things. I want to believe Connor Hellebuck. I want to believe Connor McDavid will win a cup someday. I want to believe that. I want to believe the Leafs will win a cup at some point in my lifetime. I want to believe that. In a long life. Yeah, I hope.
But the problem is you're going up against a guy who's already done it, and it makes it routine to get to the Super Bowl all the time. And Mahomes, if he's in the same position Allen was just in, I believe would have won that game. So it's difficult to do. All right, quickly here. Confirmed tonight, Bo Bichette will get booed when he returns to Toronto as a New York Met. I don't think so.
I just don't. I think everybody loved him here, and he didn't leave on bad terms. He just took a bag. I think he'll be cheered Canada Day very heavily, Bo Bichette, and I'll be the first one in the stands. Hazy, I'd like you to sit beside me right behind me. I'll be there. I love that he's coming in end of June and July 1st. He'll be here. Probably an afternoon game. Tickets go on sale soon.
Actually, we won't be there. We'll be working. That's a very valid point. July 1st, we'll be here working. Disregard. Cut that from the podcast, Doogie. Yeah, you know, I'd love to deny it 100%. I still think, this isn't Jerry's percentage, I still think I would deny it like 80%. I still think there'll be boos.
It won't be the full stadium booing him, but there's people who will resent the fact, there are people who do resent the fact that, you know, he wanted to leave and take a bag, you know? I think the people always resent when athletes leave after they were homegrown. And as good as he was, as clutch as he was, clearly the money was the motivator here. I think most of the world nowadays doesn't
Doesn't hold that against people. You've got to go get your bag. Think about the player, though. He was great in Toronto. Yes, he had some injuries the last two or three years. He had a massive home run in the World Series. He played hurt. He put it all on the line. And as soon as the season is over, they lose the World Series. And all the talk about...
is about the team you just poured your guts out for, the team you've performed for for so many years, and all the chatter is about they want Kyle Tucker and not one rumbling about Bo Bichette. He's like the secondary option. Wouldn't that piss you off a little bit?
