Andrew Eck joins Adam’s +1 for a wide-ranging conversation built off recent Deep Drop Back articles — tackling some of the biggest macro storylines across sports.

We open with Andrew putting Adam on the spot: how should the NBA address tanking, and is there a realistic fix? From there, we dive into the growing conversation around losing players’ media availability after the Super Bowl, the mental health implications, and whether the current model still makes sense in today’s social-media-driven world.

The episode continues with a breakdown of 2026 NFL strength of schedule winners and losers, and why schedule difficulty can be the difference between a division title and staying home in January. We close with a deep dive into one of the most important schematic trends in football — the continued shift toward under-center offense, motion, and formation variety, and why this evolution is reshaping roster construction across the league.
