Anything above 20 seconds is too much time to leave on the clock for Aaron Rodgers to win a game.

If you give Aaron Rodgers, I would say 19 seconds is not enough time for Aaron Rodgers. Anything above 20, it's too much time. ... they had no timeouts so you basically have to do the perfect drive and he did it.

Rodgers led the Packers on a game-winning field goal drive in the final 37 seconds with no timeouts against the 49ers.

Aaron Rodgers is still one of the best football players on planet Earth

All the hemming and hawing about Aaron Rodgers possibly not caring, possibly not being still one of the best football players on planet earth. It turns out maybe not true. Turns out he's still pretty fucking good at football.

Rodgers went on to win the MVP award for the 2021 season.

Jimmy Garoppolo will be traded mid-season

I do agree with you though. I think that the clock is ticking on Jimmy G. It just feels like Jimmy G gets traded mid season.

Garoppolo remained with the 49ers for the entire 2021 season, eventually leading them to the NFC Championship game.

Justin Tucker is the greatest kicker in NFL history.

Is [Justin Tucker] the greatest kicker of all time? I know Adam Vinatieri obviously has the most clutch kicks, but Justin Tucker is insane. 66-yarder breaks the record. ... 90.7% field goals in his career, and he's never missed a field goal in the final minute of a regulation game. Clutch and incredible.

Tucker is the most accurate kicker in NFL history and holds the record for longest field goal (66 yards).

The Ravens' fourth-quarter problems are moving earlier

Historically, the fourth-quarter Ravens have not been a great team. That fourth-quarter Ravens has started to creep its way into the third-quarter Ravens. And I think eventually it's going to keep creeping earlier and earlier in the game. I don't think it's going to get better because the defense does not look good.

This is a season-long assessment that can only be judged against Baltimore's eventual 2026 performance.

Baker Mayfield has a real revenge game against Cleveland

This is like a big Baker revenge spot too. This is not a made-up Baker—I have a perceived slight against me because some team didn't trade for me when I was on the market. This is Baker Mayfield against Stefanski, and they haven't talked since he left Cleveland.

Whether the personal history materially affects the game is subjective, though the stated public grievance is part of the episode's context.

The NFL should reduce the season to 16 games

I'm going to say it. I think that 17 games is too much. I like the scarcity. I like if you brought it back to 16, because the NFL's also been playing this game for a long time where they have to find safer-looking ways to do a dangerous activity.

The preferred NFL schedule is a policy judgment, though the player-safety rationale is grounded in the discussion's cited study.
