Blatant holds against Aaron Donald should count as sacks

Blatant holds should count as sacks for the defensive lineman... the guy had to wrestle Aaron Donald to the ground. That was the only way that he wasn't going to give up a sack.

Statistical rules do not count holds as sacks, so this remains a subjective suggestion for rule changes.

Kyler Murray's height causes some of his interceptions

Kyler Murray does have interceptions where he's too short... it's not even that he couldn't see over Leonard Floyd. It's like, he didn't understand that Leonard Floyd could easily jump up and catch that because Leonard Floyd's that much taller.

While Murray has had passes batted at the line, attributing specific interceptions solely to height is subjective and debated by analysts.

Kyler Murray's height helps him duck under sacks

He's able to duck under sacks more easily because he's five, ten or five nine or whatever... sometimes its height works to his advantage in a weird way.

It's a recognized athletic trait of Murray's, but remains an opinion on how much height specifically contributes versus pure agility.

Matthew Stafford is a Hall of Famer

That was the Hall of Fame, Matt Stafford that I hope gets there. So I can pull up a tweet from five years ago saying you were going to be in this.

Stafford went on to win the Super Bowl later that season, significantly boosting his HOF resume, though he isn't yet retired or inducted.

Arm length doesn't matter for a tackle as long as the quarterback doesn't have tiny hands

Arm length doesn't always dictate everything. If you have a guy that's got short arms that's playing tackle, it's not the end of the world unless maybe you also have a quarterback with tiny hands, in which case it's like synergy factors. Right. Where if the guy with short arms can't block the guy and then the guy with tiny hands gets hit, more likely to fumble.

Whether specific arm length correlates to fumbles based on QB hand size is largely theoretical and difficult to prove or disprove.

You should never order appetizers at a steakhouse to maximize your sides

I'm of the mindset now that you don't need any appetizers at steakhouses. It's, it's a good place to run Zero apps... You don't need the calamari at a steakhouse... The sides at a steakhouse are elite. The mashed potatoes are always elite... mac and cheese always elite at a steakhouse, you wanna maximize your sides to go with a steak.

This is entirely a matter of personal dining preference.

Trent Williams is the rare offensive lineman who is actually fun to watch play

Trent Williams is a joy to have on your team. He's just a fucking bully. He's also the rare offensive lineman where you have fun watching him play. Like after the ball was snapped, my eyes would just go to Trent Williams because it's like this guy, we might throw an interception, but Trent Williams might punch a guy in the throat.

This is a subjective opinion about entertainment value.
