Penalties occurring after a negated interception should not count

The rule that if you have like a excessive celebration or a, you know, Block in the back or something on an interception that gets negated. It shouldn't count. if the interception is negated everything after that should be allocated.

This remains a matter of opinion as the current rules still allow for dead-ball or post-possession penalties regardless of play outcomes.

Pass interference flags are the dumbest rule the NFL has ever implemented

Can we talk about the fact that PI flags are the dumbest rule the NFL has ever done. I think it was put out there as a trick on coaches to see which coaches have the least amount of respect for the officiating crews... It slows the game down. There's never ever going to be an overturned.

The rule was notoriously inconsistent and was actually scrapped after just one season due to how poorly it was received.

Frank Reich is on my list of coaches I love to bet on because he is always aggressive

Frank Reich is on my list of coaches I love to bet on because he's aggressive throughout the game... I honestly don't think there are more than a handful of franchises in the NFL that had their quarterback retired three weeks before the season would have been able to put together what the Colts were able to put [together].

Reich went 7-9 in 2019 but was widely praised for keeping the team competitive after Luck's sudden retirement.

Frank Reich should be in the conversation for NFL Coach of the Year

The Colts are really, really fucking good and Frank Reich, I mean, he's got to be in the conversation for Coach of the Year.

The Colts finished 7-9 and missed the playoffs; John Harbaugh won Coach of the Year.

The intentional-grounding penalty was the right play

I actually think he had, that's an OC problem because there was no underneath route. If he throws that deep and, like, everyone had—it just was a shit show. He couldn't throw it deep because he was basically getting chased. If he takes a sack, everyone has to come back. It probably is more than 10 seconds to get the next play. So that one, I had no problem.

Whether the decision was optimal is an inherently debatable football judgment.

The Colts needed a complete reset after Chris Ballard's firing

Chris Ballard was there for 10 years, never won an AFC South. You finally just—it's inexcusable. The Andrew Luck retirement is probably what bought Chris Ballard a lot more years. He basically could just keep on saying, 'Well, our plans were screwed up because Andrew Luck retired.'

This is an evaluative judgment about a general manager's tenure and cannot be objectively resolved.

The NBA should start on Christmas Day and play 60 games

The NBA should start on Christmas day. It should be a 60-game schedule. It'd be so much better.

This is a preference about league scheduling and cannot be objectively resolved.
