1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,840 Speaker 1: With the call of today's game on Chargers Radio, it's 2 00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:07,200 Speaker 1: our good friend NFL Network analyst Daniel Jeremiah, good to 3 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:11,119 Speaker 1: talk to you. How you doing well. We're hanging in there, fri. 4 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:14,120 Speaker 1: Straight losses is never easy. There's a lot of football 5 00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:16,880 Speaker 1: left to be played this year. So the Jags at 6 00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:18,959 Speaker 1: one in five now heading to LA to face the 7 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:22,680 Speaker 1: Chargers at one and four. You know you're around the 8 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,639 Speaker 1: Chargers a good bit of course. Uh, this team is 9 00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 1: in games. It seems like they're fighting. They've got a defense, 10 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 1: they've got a pass rush, they've got a young quarterback 11 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: that a lot of people are excited about. So it 12 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,839 Speaker 1: feels like they've got some pieces in l A to 13 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 1: get something done and the maybe not this year, but 14 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,159 Speaker 1: in the years to come. Yeah, it's interesting when you 15 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 1: look at these two teams because you you look at 16 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville dropping five and how that has put them 17 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: in a certain mood, and uh, you look at the 18 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:49,959 Speaker 1: Chargers they've lost four, and it's a totally different mood. 19 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:52,919 Speaker 1: It's a it's a hopeful, upbeat mood because it all 20 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: comes down to the quarterback. And when you've got a 21 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 1: rookie quarterback plane as well, as as justin Herbert has 22 00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: been playing against some good teams. I mean, he found 23 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 1: out he was gonna play in his first start after 24 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: the coin flip against the defending world champions and goes 25 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: out there and gave the Charges a chance to win 26 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,919 Speaker 1: that football game. He's been you know, he's he played 27 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 1: better than Tom Brady for three quarters of that game 28 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 1: down there in Tampa, played well on the road on 29 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: Monday night against the Saints. So he's been impressive. And 30 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,039 Speaker 1: and you know, I don't want to use injuries as 31 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 1: an excuse because so many teams have have dealt with it, 32 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 1: and Jags have as well. But when you look at 33 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: the Chargers team with the right side of their old line, um, 34 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: that's been pretty much gone. They've had, you know, other 35 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,559 Speaker 1: skill guys on offense missing, but more than anything else, 36 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: it's you know, you miss Derwin James, who's as good 37 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 1: as there is at safety in this league, Drew frank 38 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 1: will who was going to have a big year for 39 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,759 Speaker 1: them at linebacker, Melvin Ingram it's not played a lot 40 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 1: this year. Um, They've got Chris Harris, who they brought 41 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: over as a free agent, who's been out. So despite 42 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: all those pieces missing. You're right, they've been in games, 43 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 1: they just haven't been able to make that one play 44 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 1: they need to make to to finish. Tyrod Taylor, of course, 45 00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 1: the quarterback you're benching there, had the longest issue, the 46 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 1: punction long of all things earlier in the year, and 47 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: and that's what gets Justin Herbert in the lineup. And 48 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: it's not really a fair way to get this the start, 49 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 1: but it's just kind of how it is. He was 50 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: going to get the starting role at some point, it 51 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: just happened to be that earlier in the season. If 52 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: it does feel like maybe Taylor has a little bit 53 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 1: left in the tank to you know, maybe not in 54 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles down the line, but he could he 55 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: could have a role somewhere in this league. Certain Yeah, 56 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 1: I think, you know, I think Tyrod's probably in that 57 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 1: range of the you know, twenty five to thirty five 58 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 1: best quarterback in the NFL, which means if you're on 59 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: the right team, you're a starter. You're on the wrong team, 60 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: you're you're a really good backup. So that's kind of 61 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: where he finds himself in his career. And I think 62 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: that was they had a formula for how they were 63 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: gonna win games this year, which was Tyrod Taylor was 64 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,399 Speaker 1: gonna protect the ball as he's always done. They're gonna 65 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 1: play great defense, gonna win some low scoring games. And 66 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 1: we saw the game they won and the opener against 67 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: the Bengals, low scoring game, Chargers found a way to 68 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 1: win a close when the Bengals missed a kick at 69 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 1: the end. What happens with Tyrod, you know, that whole 70 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: thing takes place Justin Herbert gets out there. As Herbert's 71 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: getting out there, your whole defense is being decimated. So 72 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,639 Speaker 1: the don't you know, don't turn the ball over approach 73 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: is not gonna work when you don't have a defense 74 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 1: capable of keeping that score quite as low. So I 75 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 1: think Justin Herbert's creativity and playmaking ability, uh has kind 76 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: of added a whole new element here to this offense. 77 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 1: Has he stood up to some of the traits that 78 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: you saw in him coming in the draft process? So 79 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: far Justin Herbert and and what can he improve upon 80 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: a few games into his career here? Sure, he's he's 81 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 1: exceeded what my expectations were. And I liked him as 82 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: a player. I liked his size, his arm strength, his ability, 83 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: you know, as an athlete, very very athletic. He's you know, 84 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: as a four oh student character. All that stuff off 85 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: the charts, so you were you were comfortable with that. 86 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: My question with him was some of the off schedule things, 87 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: you know, can you be creative when you get something 88 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 1: you weren't expecting? Can you make somebody missing the backfield 89 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: and by time and and make some of those off 90 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: scheduled plays. Because he didn't do that a ton at 91 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: or he did it a little bit, but not a 92 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: ton I've seen it. Now. There's a handful of places 93 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 1: every week that he's been out there where he's he's 94 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: shown that creativity. Uh there's his touchdown to Keenan Allen 95 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: against the Saints. They're in a you know, six man protection, 96 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: it's a seven man blitz and you got you've got 97 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 1: a hot. He decided not to take the hot and 98 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 1: he just makes the free rusher miss and buys time 99 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 1: and Keenan Allen uncovers and and he delivers a strike. 100 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,479 Speaker 1: So some of those playmaking things have been have been impressive. 101 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: Now he still has, as you would expect, you know, 102 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: two or three plays a week where he can get 103 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 1: a little reckless and it cost him. In the Carolina game, 104 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: he threw a pick. They were down there to kick 105 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 1: a field goal before the half. Um, he throws a 106 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,840 Speaker 1: pick and gets returned all the way back inside the five. 107 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 1: The Panthers end up getting a field goal right before 108 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 1: the half, the six point swing and what ended up 109 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 1: being a five point game. So, um, he's had you know, 110 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: one or two of those each week. But the good 111 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:55,839 Speaker 1: so far far outweighs the bad. Daniel Jeremiah with us. 112 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,839 Speaker 1: He is the radio analyst for the Los Angeles Chargers, 113 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: also an NFL net work analyst, and well the top 114 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 1: NFL network analysts will will say that. So don't say no, no, 115 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: no no, we do it in that And apologies to 116 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: Bucky Brooks because we haven't on our shows too. Bucky's 117 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: the best. The defense for the Chargers Gus Bradley revenge game, right, 118 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: I mean not really at all. That's not Guss m o. 119 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: But we know what this defense is. It's rushed for 120 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: it's dropped the rest of them get home with the 121 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 1: pass rush and they're able to do that pretty well. Yeah, 122 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: and I think look when they can be healthy and 123 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: have all their horses going. Um, it's it's been really 124 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: effective this this year. Unfortunately, with Melvin Ingram not being 125 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: out there much, they've missed him. And shennon Owos is 126 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 1: a good player. He's he's been able to generate some pressure, 127 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: but I think you just lose a little bit of 128 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: your depth being able to roll those guys through and 129 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: keep them fresh. Jerry Tillery showing some real positive signs 130 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: early in the season, but still a little bit inconsistent 131 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: for you know what. You what you take him in 132 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: the first round, You're hoping you're gonna get um, but 133 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,039 Speaker 1: you know, Gus is you've seen it. I Mean. The 134 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: one thing that UH that they have of now that 135 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: they maybe didn't have last year is when they drafted 136 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 1: Kenneth Murray. They've got a linebacker now that can scoot 137 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: and you know, in that defense, the coverage responsibilities for 138 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: the linebackers being able to run with some of those 139 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: receivers on those deep over routes that you're gonna see 140 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: over and over again against this UH cover three look, 141 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: and Kenneth Murray can do it there. He ran stride 142 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: for stride with Tyreek kill On on one of the 143 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs games, So he's he's a big time, 144 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: big time athlete. But you know, you missed Chris Harris. 145 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 1: That's a that's a big loss for that defense, and 146 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: and there's just no way you can replace in Derwin James. 147 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 1: So they're they're fighting and they're scrapping back there. But 148 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: I don't think this is the group they thought they 149 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: were gonna have Daniel Jeremiah with us. The Jaguars offense 150 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 1: in the hands of Gardner Minshew this year, it's been 151 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: a struggle for him as of late the last few weeks, 152 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 1: just hasn't looked a sharp forty plus attempts the last 153 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: five games, five losing results. Of course, the the defense 154 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 1: has a hand in that too. They get down early 155 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: and then Jay Gruden has to go away from a 156 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: running game that has actually played for do well this 157 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: year in Spots and James Robinson. But with Minshew, now 158 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: you're starting to get a little clearer picture of what 159 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: he can and and maybe cannot do in the National 160 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: Football League. And the clock's ticking because we know how 161 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 1: long he's going to have to prove things. But it's 162 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: just a matter of him being able to step up 163 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: and improve as the rest of the season goes along. Yeah, 164 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: and I think it's. Look, I've been a fan of 165 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: what Gardner Minshew did last year, and I admire his competitiveness, 166 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: his toughness, Um, you know, all the stuff with the leadership, 167 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: all that stuff is off the charts and just finding 168 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: ways to make plays. But but I likened him to 169 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: somebody like a Jake Delone who when everything was was 170 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: perfect around him, Jake Delone took a team to the 171 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Um, but it's uh, you know, it's it's 172 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 1: not a situation where he's gonna be able to carry 173 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: the team behind him. That's not that's just not who 174 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: he is. And and he just doesn't have the physical 175 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: tools to be able to do that. So you know 176 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: that that's that's a little bit of the challenge for 177 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: the team right now is as you're kind of trying 178 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: to build up a young raw ster, you you're hoping 179 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: that you have a quarterback maybe that can elevate some 180 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: of those guys a little bit more. And um, I 181 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: don't think we've seen as much of that this year 182 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: from Gardner Minshew. And and you mentioned the clocks ticking 183 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: because Jaguars are loaded with h with draft capital going forward, 184 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: and this is a draft that looks like it's gonna 185 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: be pretty interesting at the quarterback position, so they're gonna 186 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: have to make that decision in that verdict once we 187 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: get to the end of the year. That is a 188 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: professional transition to our bonus content on the Official Jaguars 189 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: Podcast Network presented by a Vice Star. We asked Daniel Jeremiah, 190 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: top draft analysts on NFL Network, about the top college 191 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 1: quarterbacks this year. We know about Lawrence Justin Fields gets 192 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: cranked up this weekend in Ohio State. Trey Lance is 193 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 1: a name everybody's throwing around out of North Dakota State. 194 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 1: All of a sudden, the quarterback hot bed. Are those 195 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: really the three and then the rest of the pack? 196 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 1: How does it work at the quarterback position at least 197 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 1: early midway through the college season? Yeah, I mean I did. 198 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: I did my homework on the Big three over the summer, 199 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: so I've I've got those guys a pretty good feel 200 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,080 Speaker 1: for them, and I'm looking forward to diving into to 201 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: what we've seen thus far. Fields hadn't even out there yet. 202 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 1: I only seen Trey Lance for that one, you know, 203 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: exhibition game. Basically, uh so you get a chance to 204 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: dig a little bit deeper, but so this time of 205 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 1: year is where I'm collecting. So I'm I'm calling and 206 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,439 Speaker 1: collecting names and then I can start really jumping in. 207 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: What the name that I keep hearing over and over 208 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 1: again is this b y U kid? You know as 209 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: b y U quarterback has got a lot of buzz 210 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: with my scouting buddies. So I had somebody with a 211 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: team the other day tell me the thought he could 212 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: end up being the second quarterback picked, and I was like, whoa, 213 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: But that's you know, that's somebody who's generated a lot 214 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: of buzz um. You know, Trask at Florida is big, strong, 215 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: you know, he's a he's a good player. Having done 216 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: a deep, deep dive on him, but from what I've seen, 217 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,199 Speaker 1: I thought he looked like kind of a middle round, 218 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: you know pick. So there's there's gonna be a bunch 219 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: of other guys to jump into. But Lawrence has taken 220 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: his play from last year, which I thought was a 221 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 1: little bit underwhelming from what the expectation was. I mean, 222 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: the year was incredible for for Clemson, but I thought 223 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: at the end of the year he kind of tailed 224 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: off a little bit, particularly in the last game. He's 225 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: playing consistent, He's playing decise if he is throwing the 226 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: ball accurately, and I think he's kind of separated himself 227 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: a little bit um and then I think it's gonna 228 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: be a fair fight, in my opinion, for the for 229 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 1: the number two quarterback job. And I've been a big 230 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 1: Trade Lance fan. I liked him over the summer when 231 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: I studied him more than justin fields, and uh, you know, 232 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: I make sure to see how that all shakes out. 233 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 1: But there's gonna be those big three, and I think 234 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 1: you're gonna have a chance to see a fourth and 235 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: maybe even a fifth in the first round when it's 236 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 1: all said and done. It's funny how that works, right, 237 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: I mean, you'll have everywhere two names and then here 238 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 1: come five in the first round every year. And uh, 239 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 1: you know, the the good thing if I'm you know, 240 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: if you're a quarterback coming into this draft class, and 241 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 1: I would be excited because it feels similarly too. When 242 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 1: we had you know, Mahomes who went to a really 243 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: good team, Deshaun Watson who went to a good team. 244 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 1: At that time, it was just happened to be picking 245 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 1: up there and there there were moves to go up 246 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,839 Speaker 1: there and get those guys Um, you look at Lamar 247 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: Jackson falling in the first round. Well, there's a great 248 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: team there at the bottom of the first round in 249 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:59,080 Speaker 1: the Ravens. So if you're a quarterback, the ideal situation is, yeah, 250 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 1: you want to be the first we all pick. That's great. 251 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: I'd rather go to a good football team that can 252 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: nurture me and help me grow and develop. And I 253 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: think when you look at teams like the Saints who 254 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 1: could be in the quarterback market. Look at the Pittsburgh 255 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 1: Steelers with an aging quarterback, the Colts with an aging quarterback. Um, 256 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,079 Speaker 1: there's been rumblings at San Francisco. You know, they might 257 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: have had enough of Jimmy Garoppolo want to go in 258 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,439 Speaker 1: a different direction. And these are really really good organizations, 259 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: good football teams that you'd have a chance as a 260 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 1: young quarterback to being an ideal spot. Daniel Jeremiah with 261 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: his final thought here and kind of big picture COVID 262 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 1: world right now.

You've got this Amazon business now on games, 265 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: I mean, do you rest what happens?

But I think Bucky, you know, 268 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: Bucky's doing doing his many jobs are more than I am. 269 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: So we uh, we stay busy, but it's it's fun. 270 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 1: Like this week you get a chance to do three games, 271 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: so two with Amazon on Amazon Prime and then they 272 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 1: stream them on Twitch. It's Twitch dot tv, Slash Moved 273 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: the Sticks and Bucky's with me on those, so it's me, 274 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: Bucky and Joy Taylor, who you may know from the 275 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: from Colin Cowhard Show.
