The NFL has no intention or momentum to change the playoff seeding rules that allow division winners to host games.

The league is intent upon rewarding division winners. I don't see that changing anytime soon. I've never heard any momentum or movement to change the way the playoff seeding system works.

Schefter is reporting on current league sentiment and momentum; unless a rule change occurs in the next league meeting, he is correct.

Divisional Round is the best sports weekend of the year

This is my favorite sports weekend of the year. Because in Wild Card weekend, sometimes you have, you get some lopsided matchups. Divisional round, you get the prestigious teams, you get the elite teams.

This is an inherently subjective opinion about personal preference.

Dion Sanders to the Cowboys would be an incredible story for the NFL

I want it because it would be just an incredible story for the NFL. Having Dion in the NFL, especially for the Dallas Cowboys, would be awesome. I wanna see Dion interacting with Jerry Jones... Dion will not be pushed around by Jerry Jones.

The entertainment value is subjective, though Dion did not become the head coach in early 2025.

The Jets will inevitably make the wrong choice for their next head coach even if the right candidate is obvious.

There was a report that Aaron Glenn [wants the Jets]. That's good. Jets fans want Aaron Glenn. Which means we're gonna make the wrong choice.

Memes (a Jets fan) predicted the Jets would make the wrong coaching choice even though Aaron Glenn wanted the job and fans wanted him. The Jets actually hired Aaron Glenn as head coach on January 22, 2025 — the candidate fans wanted. The Jets made what was considered the right choice.

Andy Dalton would be the perfect veteran backup for JJ McCarthy on the Vikings

The Minnesota Vikings. Like that would make a, he'd be the perfect guy for JJ McCarthy. He looks like a Viking... I kind of like the Vikings [for Dalton].

This depends on where Andy Dalton actually signs during the 2026 free agency period.

The 49ers will not trade Mac Jones because they like him too much as a backup for Brock Purdy

I don't think they're gonna trade Mac Jones. They just have not, they, they like him too much. And Brock Purdy runs around. He's an active guy and he's missed some time. And when Brock Purdy missed time, Mac [Jones] was able to step right in... I think they really like Mac Jones too much [to move him].

The 49ers' roster decisions for the 2026 season will determine if this holds true.

Miami should release Tua and eat the record $99 million cap hit all at once

I think they probably just have to wind up releasing [Tua]. And the question is, how do you wanna take your medicine? You wanna take it all at once. One year. 99.1 million. The largest cap hit in NFL history. You wanna spread it out, make him post June one... I would just take all my medicine all at once. If it were me.

This is an advisory opinion on how to handle the contract; the Dolphins' actual decision will reveal if they agree.
