00:00There's been a number of player of NFL rule change proposals.
00:05Now the one that's going to get the most attention is the tush push, right?
00:10But Detroit proposed one that I find interesting. You still make the playoffs if you win your
00:16division, but the seating goes by record. Yeah. So like this past year, you know,
00:23Minnesota, I think when I'm sorry, I think Detroit went 14 and two or 14 and three,
00:28maybe they went 15 and two. And then Minnesota went 14 and three, but Minnesota fell to the
00:35five line because the division winners all get the top four slots. And they're saying
00:44division winners still make the playoffs. But if you do it by seating, it doesn't guarantee them
00:55a home game. Like this past year, if you had done it by, if you had done it by record,
01:01Washington would have had a home playoff game in the first round against green Bay.
01:05It was about a record. If it's by the record now, it doesn't like, but Tampa still would have made
01:11the playoffs. But yeah, but I think what they're doing is if you win your division, they're giving
01:17that person because he won his division, give him a chance to make sure they have a playoff game.
01:24Although they may be not as good as that guy in another division that could be easy as hell.
01:30You know what I mean? Yeah. So for me, I don't know that I have a really good case to say why
01:37I don't like it. I just kind of don't like it. I don't like it because like, it's been like this,
01:43you win your division. So you get something for winning your division. What'd you get for winning
01:48your division? You get a home game. Okay. If you go out there and you third place in your division
01:54and you happen to have that division where you play a couple of more, the division you get this
01:59year sucks, right? And AFC and NFC, and you blow through them, but you didn't win your own division.
02:05Why should you get a home game? Right. Oh, I kind of agree with you. They need to just,
02:12they, they had the number one seed and got destroyed. What the hell are they pushing that for?
02:17I don't know. I guess just to, I mean, there's a number of rule changes that exist, right? But
02:23I also think if you're, I mean, how many quarterbacks be honestly, how many quarterbacks
02:30you think are really good in the NFL? Eight. Not who gets paid like it, but like you got,
02:40over the course of time, even is there, how many quarterbacks give you a chance to win a Superbowl?
02:46Seven, 10, every day, more than 10. Every year you got, you got right now in this league,
02:52you, I would say you have about seven, eight.
