The NFL Officially Bans the Hip-Drop Tackle. Plus, the Most Valuable Positions in the NFL. | Extra Point Taken
The NFL has officially banned the “hip-drop tackle” after a vote at this week's owners meetings. Are the lines too blurred for determining what a hip-drop tackle is, and will this make it harder for officials to call during the game? Ben Solak and Steven Ruiz discuss that and go through which positions are the most valuable in the NFL. Is a shutdown cornerback more valuable than an elite defensive tackle?

Customer Reviews
Fun pod
Would it be possible to turn down the volume on the little jingle that plays between segments? Just so it’s the same volume as the segments would be great!
Hit, hit, miss
So, each show has its’ own distinct angle (and probably audience). The Ringer definitely has a broad swath of product for football listening. The Shazier/Jones show has grown on me somewhat, the Friday show is my favourite of the bunch. Interesting, data driven, good hosts. Kevin Clark isn’t for me. He always strikes me as smug sounding, he never really sells his co-hosts’ bits, and if I’m being honest there are times he comes off as pretty dismissive of Nora. Maybe I’m wrong, but it’s how I interpret it. I was pretty happy to see Robert Mays get a podcast where he could really stretch out and deep dive because he and Clark were an awkward pairing.
Solak is so annoying
Everyone else is great, but less Solak please
