my feeling it will ultimately be decided by dan snyder. mr. snyder will make that decision.itical pressures coming on, it is a the past politics. i find it interesting that of the letter that was written, for example to roger goodell, i think 49 senators, they all happen to be democrats. now we have another liberal saying we ought to do this. i'm not, this is a fact. i'm not making this, this is just observation i made but i really feel it will be up to dan and political pressure -- >> said adamantly. >> he has said no. >> you know dan snyder well enough to know if he would ever change his mind? how far does the needle have to move, do you think. >> i think it has to move within the native-american nation. i look at it this way. i don't know dan that well i could say he might do this or he might do that. wouldn't assume that but i do know that i think in every situation good comes out of. for example, with the name coming up, here we are discussing it right now, is we're finding out that on the reservations, the native americans, they need better schools, they need better pl

the worst debut for a head coach in the dan snyder era. >> not much soul searching. we've just got to play better. defensively, we've got to create more turnovers. today we didn't do a good job. >> the bad things will linger. the good things, they won't talk about next year. for us a team we have to focus on being better. >> up the road the ravens looked like they would be watching the playoffs from their couches, but they clinched their sixth postseason berth in seven years. >> i remember sitting at home last year in a week from now, and it didn't feel very good. so that won't be happening this year. it feels very good. it's a great locker room right now. we've just got to do all we can to go get ready. >>> overall a fun and crazy finish to the nfl regular season. coming up on "game on overtime" we will take you around the league as the playoff picture is now clear. plus, what the future holds for both the redskins and the ravens. so one team going on, one team going home. >> and where do you begin with fixing this team, right? >> that's the perfect question. where

i think it's offensive and horrible but i mean if anybody knows dan snyder, he's not going to change name of that team. he'll probably sell the team before he changes the name. but he's just -- listen zirin is right, these owners do whatever they want when they want it as they want it. why? because they're monopolies that's why. that's what most americans don't understand. they're untouchable. you can't touch them under federal law because they own it all. >> monopolies get a tax exemption. >> that's right. when you don't have competition and you don't pay taxes, et cetera, et cetera. by the way, what is the public doing? they're throwing money at you hand over fists to go to your games, nfl, nba, so dan snyder that's an egotistical little man who doesn't care if it's offensive or not. he's going to dig in. no one thinks he's going to do it. >> jimmy, in 2015 i need you to tell me how you feel. >> i usually do that. >> stay with us. coming up next, top entertain entertainment stories of the year from the hack attack on sony pictures to the tragic loss of hollywood's biggest stars and
