0:00
let me ask you a question real quick kind of piggybacking off of that what do you think their
0:03
floor would be do you think it's winning the division or winning a playoff game
0:08
now if you had to make between them two is the division to you yeah so if they get into the
0:14
wild card and get an upset how would you feel like would you feel like they underachieved heading
0:19
into the season or because again if the floor is the division but they make the wild card
0:25
are you like and get a playoff win yeah they get a playoff win that we don't expect
0:30
like how would you feel about that would you feel like that's like a disappointment to an extent
0:34
because they didn't get the division or no it's not gonna be a disappointment but
0:39
winning the division in my mind right okay the wild card could end up screwing you
0:47
you win the division you control your destiny that's where it starts for me right is
0:54
Answer some questions real quick. I got a little bit of an interruption Yeah the only reason I say that is just because I feel like wildcard teams and the teams that are sitting out here winning the division to an extent can be a little bit different
1:11
Because we just saw Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers win the division, but they're clearly a fraudulent team
1:17
But teams that are getting into the wildcard as well, maybe a team like the Giants, you know, they're able to sneak up and upset the Vikings
1:24
Sorry about that. They have different expectations. No, it's cool. You get your intern, you know, answering his questions
1:29
but yeah i just feel like it's maybe to an extent a different standard of what we're looking for in
1:35
terms of where they finish because wildcard teams can be like i said it can be fluky but then again
1:41
so can division so it just depends on where your spots are but i agree with i agree with dre sorry
1:47
i didn't mean to click that off again but i agree with dre okay to the extent that there's that lack
1:55
of controlling your destiny. If you win the division, you are controlling your destiny
2:03
You don't have to go, oh my gosh I hope the Seattle Seahawks don get help from the referees and win this game You go no we won the division We hosting a playoff game What happens after that to me is kind of cake right
2:17
Like, yeah, you want to perform well, but if you, because the playoffs
2:22
let me step back for a second. Winning a Super Bowl is incredibly difficult
2:27
Of course. And it takes a lot of luck, right? So the Super Bowl to me, yeah, that's the ultimate goal
2:35
That's what we want to get to. But the playoffs too also have all these unknowns as well
2:42
This randomness that's involved. Right. Okay. Okay. To me, a solid floor level season next year is go out and be that team
2:56
Go out and be that team that wins the division, that controls its destiny
3:01
that now people are like, you don't want to go to Detroit in January and play in the playoffs
3:08
Right. Anything can happen in the playoffs Right But let be the team that controls the destiny during the regular season That where I at That why I say the floor is the division But based on what you just said though that why I kind of feel like it would be a disappointment
3:22
I don't want them to have to sneak in with a wild card. But great, I don't want them to be a division team like Tampa Bay
3:28
where they look like trash all season but still fall in because of where they at
3:32
It's about getting hot at the right time at the end of the season. Of course, and that's what we saw them do
3:36
But we also want to clean up a few of those early games, too, so they don't bite you in the behind at the end of the year
3:42
Imagine if they had gone 2-5 through those first seven. They'd have been in the playoffs
3:49
10-7 would be beautiful, yes. Imagine if they had gone 3-4, right
3:55
There's a lot of what-ifs, and I think to that point, it's control the destiny
4:02
Don't lose the games you're not supposed to lose, like the Seahawks game, like the Minnesota game in Minnesota
4:09
No. Don't do that. Those two games right there are what cost them the playoffs
4:15
not Seattle winning at the end of the season
