Oh, here we go to Tuesday live in Los Angeles. This is the herd wherever you may be. However, you may be listening. We're on I heart radio Fox Sports Radio and FS1 one hour from now.

The herd hierarchy. What do we do with the packers? What do we do with the cowboys? What do we do with the chiefs?

Heard hierarchy. Top 10 teams in the league. We give it a lot of thought in one hour. Enjoy Taylor is joining me after a controversial finish last night in Monday night football. It's turned out to be a great game.

It was a great game, but I do feel very badly for the Lions. I do too. So you know, here's what's interesting about this.

The nation freaked out. The owners freaked out. America freaked out when the New Orleans Saints. There was a really bad call against the Rams and the NFC championship.

And the Saints certainly played the victim very well. But the thing about that bad call. Is there were three opportunities for the Saints after that call to win the game.

Okay, after that bad call, Saints kick a field goal. The Rams got the ball back in regulation drove all the way down the field.

Saints defense couldn't stop him. Kick a field goal, sent it to overtime. So the Saints defense could have won the game. Then we go to overtime in the Super No.

The Saints offense gets the ball that throw a pick. And then the Saints defense takes the field and the Rams drive down kick a field goal win the game.

Three opportunities. Now the Saints play the victim. The owners wanted to support the Saints. And oh, I got kept but lit. But the Saints had three opportunities to win that game.

Their defense had to and drew breeze in the offense had one. Not saying the call was good. It was bad. But bad things happen in games and bad things happen in life.

Are you given opportunities to overcome bad things? Saints got three couldn't do it. Last night Detroit didn't do to a bad call. Have any opportunities.

Their offense sat and watched their special team sat and watched and their defense made the stop bad call. Watch Green Bay bleed the clock.

So I feel very bad. I feel worse for Detroit than I do for New Orleans because Detroit didn't have any time to overcome it. And this begs the question for this paper. How do you solve it?

I think the way to solve it is really, really, really in easy. For the 276 time, the umbrella rule.

The umbrella rule, which means two minutes left in any NFL game. Everything is reviewable. Everything.

It's the NFL's insurance policy that instead of this nonsense, the Ram Saints game created, which is now we're going to review every passing or appearance call, which has been a debacle.

The last 25 reviewed PI calls 24 or unchanged. Nobody wants to change it. It's nonsense. There's a reason for a hundred years in football. We didn't have it.

And now they bring it in because everybody freaked out because New Orleans complained enough and it was a bad call in New Orleans. But in the end, that's nonsense. What's not nonsense is insurance.
