WEBVTT - Publix Tailgate Show: Daniel Jeremiah

0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:03.840
<v Speaker 1>With the call of today's game on Chargers Radio, it's

0:00:03.880 --> 0:00:07.200
<v Speaker 1>our good friend NFL Network analyst Daniel Jeremiah, good to

0:00:07.200 --> 0:00:11.119
<v Speaker 1>talk to you. How you doing well. We're hanging in there, fri.

0:00:11.280 --> 0:00:14.120
<v Speaker 1>Straight losses is never easy. There's a lot of football

0:00:14.200 --> 0:00:16.880
<v Speaker 1>left to be played this year. So the Jags at

0:00:16.880 --> 0:00:18.959
<v Speaker 1>one in five now heading to LA to face the

0:00:19.040 --> 0:00:22.680
<v Speaker 1>Chargers at one and four. You know you're around the

0:00:22.760 --> 0:00:25.639
<v Speaker 1>Chargers a good bit of course. Uh, this team is

0:00:25.640 --> 0:00:29.120
<v Speaker 1>in games. It seems like they're fighting. They've got a defense,

0:00:29.160 --> 0:00:31.440
<v Speaker 1>they've got a pass rush, they've got a young quarterback

0:00:31.520 --> 0:00:33.400
<v Speaker 1>that a lot of people are excited about. So it

0:00:33.479 --> 0:00:35.839
<v Speaker 1>feels like they've got some pieces in l A to

0:00:35.880 --> 0:00:38.120
<v Speaker 1>get something done and the maybe not this year, but

0:00:38.159 --> 0:00:40.159
<v Speaker 1>in the years to come. Yeah, it's interesting when you

0:00:40.159 --> 0:00:42.360
<v Speaker 1>look at these two teams because you you look at

0:00:42.600 --> 0:00:45.519
<v Speaker 1>the Jacksonville dropping five and how that has put them

0:00:45.520 --> 0:00:47.680
<v Speaker 1>in a certain mood, and uh, you look at the

0:00:47.720 --> 0:00:49.959
<v Speaker 1>Chargers they've lost four, and it's a totally different mood.

0:00:50.040 --> 0:00:52.919
<v Speaker 1>It's a it's a hopeful, upbeat mood because it all

0:00:52.920 --> 0:00:54.680
<v Speaker 1>comes down to the quarterback. And when you've got a

0:00:54.760 --> 0:00:57.360
<v Speaker 1>rookie quarterback plane as well, as as justin Herbert has

0:00:57.400 --> 0:01:00.360
<v Speaker 1>been playing against some good teams. I mean, he found

0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:02.920
<v Speaker 1>out he was gonna play in his first start after

0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:05.880
<v Speaker 1>the coin flip against the defending world champions and goes

0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:07.520
<v Speaker 1>out there and gave the Charges a chance to win

0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:10.919
<v Speaker 1>that football game. He's been you know, he's he played

0:01:10.920 --> 0:01:13.679
<v Speaker 1>better than Tom Brady for three quarters of that game

0:01:13.720 --> 0:01:16.120
<v Speaker 1>down there in Tampa, played well on the road on

0:01:16.120 --> 0:01:19.200
<v Speaker 1>Monday night against the Saints. So he's been impressive. And

0:01:19.200 --> 0:01:21.039
<v Speaker 1>and you know, I don't want to use injuries as

0:01:21.080 --> 0:01:24.200
<v Speaker 1>an excuse because so many teams have have dealt with it,

0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:26.399
<v Speaker 1>and Jags have as well. But when you look at

0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:28.840
<v Speaker 1>the Chargers team with the right side of their old line, um,

0:01:28.920 --> 0:01:31.920
<v Speaker 1>that's been pretty much gone. They've had, you know, other

0:01:32.000 --> 0:01:34.559
<v Speaker 1>skill guys on offense missing, but more than anything else,

0:01:34.600 --> 0:01:37.360
<v Speaker 1>it's you know, you miss Derwin James, who's as good

0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:39.319
<v Speaker 1>as there is at safety in this league, Drew frank

0:01:39.319 --> 0:01:40.640
<v Speaker 1>will who was going to have a big year for

0:01:40.680 --> 0:01:43.759
<v Speaker 1>them at linebacker, Melvin Ingram it's not played a lot

0:01:43.880 --> 0:01:46.679
<v Speaker 1>this year. Um, They've got Chris Harris, who they brought

0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:49.800
<v Speaker 1>over as a free agent, who's been out. So despite

0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:52.160
<v Speaker 1>all those pieces missing. You're right, they've been in games,

0:01:52.160 --> 0:01:54.160
<v Speaker 1>they just haven't been able to make that one play

0:01:54.200 --> 0:01:56.760
<v Speaker 1>they need to make to to finish. Tyrod Taylor, of course,

0:01:56.840 --> 0:02:00.240
<v Speaker 1>the quarterback you're benching there, had the longest issue, the

0:02:00.440 --> 0:02:03.440
<v Speaker 1>punction long of all things earlier in the year, and

0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:05.680
<v Speaker 1>and that's what gets Justin Herbert in the lineup. And

0:02:05.680 --> 0:02:08.120
<v Speaker 1>it's not really a fair way to get this the start,

0:02:08.240 --> 0:02:10.120
<v Speaker 1>but it's just kind of how it is. He was

0:02:10.160 --> 0:02:12.160
<v Speaker 1>going to get the starting role at some point, it

0:02:12.240 --> 0:02:14.480
<v Speaker 1>just happened to be that earlier in the season. If

0:02:14.520 --> 0:02:16.840
<v Speaker 1>it does feel like maybe Taylor has a little bit

0:02:16.880 --> 0:02:19.359
<v Speaker 1>left in the tank to you know, maybe not in

0:02:19.360 --> 0:02:22.280
<v Speaker 1>in Los Angeles down the line, but he could he

0:02:22.320 --> 0:02:24.560
<v Speaker 1>could have a role somewhere in this league. Certain Yeah,

0:02:24.639 --> 0:02:27.520
<v Speaker 1>I think, you know, I think Tyrod's probably in that

0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:30.799
<v Speaker 1>range of the you know, twenty five to thirty five

0:02:31.000 --> 0:02:33.400
<v Speaker 1>best quarterback in the NFL, which means if you're on

0:02:33.400 --> 0:02:36.200
<v Speaker 1>the right team, you're a starter. You're on the wrong team,

0:02:36.200 --> 0:02:38.200
<v Speaker 1>you're you're a really good backup. So that's kind of

0:02:38.200 --> 0:02:40.680
<v Speaker 1>where he finds himself in his career. And I think

0:02:40.720 --> 0:02:42.480
<v Speaker 1>that was they had a formula for how they were

0:02:42.480 --> 0:02:44.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna win games this year, which was Tyrod Taylor was

0:02:44.480 --> 0:02:46.399
<v Speaker 1>gonna protect the ball as he's always done. They're gonna

0:02:46.400 --> 0:02:48.960
<v Speaker 1>play great defense, gonna win some low scoring games. And

0:02:48.960 --> 0:02:50.840
<v Speaker 1>we saw the game they won and the opener against

0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:53.040
<v Speaker 1>the Bengals, low scoring game, Chargers found a way to

0:02:53.080 --> 0:02:55.080
<v Speaker 1>win a close when the Bengals missed a kick at

0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:57.440
<v Speaker 1>the end. What happens with Tyrod, you know, that whole

0:02:57.480 --> 0:03:00.400
<v Speaker 1>thing takes place Justin Herbert gets out there. As Herbert's

0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:03.840
<v Speaker 1>getting out there, your whole defense is being decimated. So

0:03:04.200 --> 0:03:06.639
<v Speaker 1>the don't you know, don't turn the ball over approach

0:03:06.760 --> 0:03:09.720
<v Speaker 1>is not gonna work when you don't have a defense

0:03:09.760 --> 0:03:12.400
<v Speaker 1>capable of keeping that score quite as low. So I

0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:16.360
<v Speaker 1>think Justin Herbert's creativity and playmaking ability, uh has kind

0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:18.680
<v Speaker 1>of added a whole new element here to this offense.

0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:22.040
<v Speaker 1>Has he stood up to some of the traits that

0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:24.480
<v Speaker 1>you saw in him coming in the draft process? So

0:03:24.560 --> 0:03:27.480
<v Speaker 1>far Justin Herbert and and what can he improve upon

0:03:27.520 --> 0:03:30.680
<v Speaker 1>a few games into his career here? Sure, he's he's

0:03:30.680 --> 0:03:33.680
<v Speaker 1>exceeded what my expectations were. And I liked him as

0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:37.200
<v Speaker 1>a player. I liked his size, his arm strength, his ability,

0:03:37.360 --> 0:03:40.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, as an athlete, very very athletic. He's you know,

0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:42.960
<v Speaker 1>as a four oh student character. All that stuff off

0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:45.000
<v Speaker 1>the charts, so you were you were comfortable with that.

0:03:45.680 --> 0:03:48.960
<v Speaker 1>My question with him was some of the off schedule things,

0:03:48.960 --> 0:03:51.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, can you be creative when you get something

0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:53.920
<v Speaker 1>you weren't expecting? Can you make somebody missing the backfield

0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:56.560
<v Speaker 1>and by time and and make some of those off

0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:58.720
<v Speaker 1>scheduled plays. Because he didn't do that a ton at

0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:00.160
<v Speaker 1>or he did it a little bit, but not a

0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:02.480
<v Speaker 1>ton I've seen it. Now. There's a handful of places

0:04:02.560 --> 0:04:04.880
<v Speaker 1>every week that he's been out there where he's he's

0:04:04.880 --> 0:04:08.280
<v Speaker 1>shown that creativity. Uh there's his touchdown to Keenan Allen

0:04:08.320 --> 0:04:11.160
<v Speaker 1>against the Saints. They're in a you know, six man protection,

0:04:11.240 --> 0:04:14.560
<v Speaker 1>it's a seven man blitz and you got you've got

0:04:14.600 --> 0:04:16.840
<v Speaker 1>a hot. He decided not to take the hot and

0:04:16.920 --> 0:04:19.599
<v Speaker 1>he just makes the free rusher miss and buys time

0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:22.720
<v Speaker 1>and Keenan Allen uncovers and and he delivers a strike.

0:04:22.839 --> 0:04:26.479
<v Speaker 1>So some of those playmaking things have been have been impressive.

0:04:26.520 --> 0:04:29.760
<v Speaker 1>Now he still has, as you would expect, you know,

0:04:29.960 --> 0:04:32.200
<v Speaker 1>two or three plays a week where he can get

0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:34.800
<v Speaker 1>a little reckless and it cost him. In the Carolina game,

0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:36.760
<v Speaker 1>he threw a pick. They were down there to kick

0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:39.599
<v Speaker 1>a field goal before the half. Um, he throws a

0:04:39.600 --> 0:04:41.840
<v Speaker 1>pick and gets returned all the way back inside the five.

0:04:41.960 --> 0:04:43.840
<v Speaker 1>The Panthers end up getting a field goal right before

0:04:43.839 --> 0:04:46.360
<v Speaker 1>the half, the six point swing and what ended up

0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:49.279
<v Speaker 1>being a five point game. So, um, he's had you know,

0:04:49.320 --> 0:04:51.880
<v Speaker 1>one or two of those each week. But the good

0:04:51.960 --> 0:04:55.839
<v Speaker 1>so far far outweighs the bad. Daniel Jeremiah with us.

0:04:55.880 --> 0:04:58.839
<v Speaker 1>He is the radio analyst for the Los Angeles Chargers,

0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:01.960
<v Speaker 1>also an NFL net work analyst, and well the top

0:05:02.120 --> 0:05:05.599
<v Speaker 1>NFL network analysts will will say that. So don't say no, no,

0:05:05.600 --> 0:05:09.120
<v Speaker 1>no no, we do it in that And apologies to

0:05:09.120 --> 0:05:12.760
<v Speaker 1>Bucky Brooks because we haven't on our shows too. Bucky's

0:05:12.800 --> 0:05:16.599
<v Speaker 1>the best. The defense for the Chargers Gus Bradley revenge game, right,

0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:19.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean not really at all. That's not Guss m o.

0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:21.960
<v Speaker 1>But we know what this defense is. It's rushed for

0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:24.440
<v Speaker 1>it's dropped the rest of them get home with the

0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:26.960
<v Speaker 1>pass rush and they're able to do that pretty well. Yeah,

0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:29.080
<v Speaker 1>and I think look when they can be healthy and

0:05:29.080 --> 0:05:31.760
<v Speaker 1>have all their horses going. Um, it's it's been really

0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:35.120
<v Speaker 1>effective this this year. Unfortunately, with Melvin Ingram not being

0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:38.240
<v Speaker 1>out there much, they've missed him. And shennon Owos is

0:05:38.279 --> 0:05:40.919
<v Speaker 1>a good player. He's he's been able to generate some pressure,

0:05:41.279 --> 0:05:42.680
<v Speaker 1>but I think you just lose a little bit of

0:05:42.720 --> 0:05:44.640
<v Speaker 1>your depth being able to roll those guys through and

0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:48.400
<v Speaker 1>keep them fresh. Jerry Tillery showing some real positive signs

0:05:48.400 --> 0:05:50.960
<v Speaker 1>early in the season, but still a little bit inconsistent

0:05:51.120 --> 0:05:52.760
<v Speaker 1>for you know what. You what you take him in

0:05:52.800 --> 0:05:55.520
<v Speaker 1>the first round, You're hoping you're gonna get um, but

0:05:55.760 --> 0:05:58.039
<v Speaker 1>you know, Gus is you've seen it. I Mean. The

0:05:58.040 --> 0:06:00.560
<v Speaker 1>one thing that UH that they have of now that

0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:03.080
<v Speaker 1>they maybe didn't have last year is when they drafted

0:06:03.120 --> 0:06:06.159
<v Speaker 1>Kenneth Murray. They've got a linebacker now that can scoot

0:06:06.279 --> 0:06:09.400
<v Speaker 1>and you know, in that defense, the coverage responsibilities for

0:06:09.400 --> 0:06:11.440
<v Speaker 1>the linebackers being able to run with some of those

0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:13.760
<v Speaker 1>receivers on those deep over routes that you're gonna see

0:06:13.760 --> 0:06:16.560
<v Speaker 1>over and over again against this UH cover three look,

0:06:17.040 --> 0:06:19.760
<v Speaker 1>and Kenneth Murray can do it there. He ran stride

0:06:19.800 --> 0:06:21.640
<v Speaker 1>for stride with Tyreek kill On on one of the

0:06:21.720 --> 0:06:24.120
<v Speaker 1>Kansas City Chiefs games, So he's he's a big time,

0:06:24.160 --> 0:06:26.880
<v Speaker 1>big time athlete. But you know, you missed Chris Harris.

0:06:27.400 --> 0:06:29.719
<v Speaker 1>That's a that's a big loss for that defense, and

0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:32.400
<v Speaker 1>and there's just no way you can replace in Derwin James.

0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:34.919
<v Speaker 1>So they're they're fighting and they're scrapping back there. But

0:06:34.960 --> 0:06:36.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't think this is the group they thought they

0:06:36.400 --> 0:06:40.880
<v Speaker 1>were gonna have Daniel Jeremiah with us. The Jaguars offense

0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:43.960
<v Speaker 1>in the hands of Gardner Minshew this year, it's been

0:06:44.000 --> 0:06:46.320
<v Speaker 1>a struggle for him as of late the last few weeks,

0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:49.720
<v Speaker 1>just hasn't looked a sharp forty plus attempts the last

0:06:49.760 --> 0:06:53.000
<v Speaker 1>five games, five losing results. Of course, the the defense

0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:55.159
<v Speaker 1>has a hand in that too. They get down early

0:06:55.240 --> 0:06:57.760
<v Speaker 1>and then Jay Gruden has to go away from a

0:06:57.839 --> 0:07:00.520
<v Speaker 1>running game that has actually played for do well this

0:07:00.600 --> 0:07:03.760
<v Speaker 1>year in Spots and James Robinson. But with Minshew, now

0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:07.440
<v Speaker 1>you're starting to get a little clearer picture of what

0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:10.720
<v Speaker 1>he can and and maybe cannot do in the National

0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:14.120
<v Speaker 1>Football League. And the clock's ticking because we know how

0:07:14.160 --> 0:07:17.360
<v Speaker 1>long he's going to have to prove things. But it's

0:07:17.360 --> 0:07:19.080
<v Speaker 1>just a matter of him being able to step up

0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:21.480
<v Speaker 1>and improve as the rest of the season goes along. Yeah,

0:07:21.560 --> 0:07:23.640
<v Speaker 1>and I think it's. Look, I've been a fan of

0:07:23.680 --> 0:07:28.800
<v Speaker 1>what Gardner Minshew did last year, and I admire his competitiveness,

0:07:28.840 --> 0:07:32.280
<v Speaker 1>his toughness, Um, you know, all the stuff with the leadership,

0:07:32.320 --> 0:07:34.840
<v Speaker 1>all that stuff is off the charts and just finding

0:07:34.840 --> 0:07:37.280
<v Speaker 1>ways to make plays. But but I likened him to

0:07:37.320 --> 0:07:40.760
<v Speaker 1>somebody like a Jake Delone who when everything was was

0:07:40.800 --> 0:07:42.760
<v Speaker 1>perfect around him, Jake Delone took a team to the

0:07:42.760 --> 0:07:45.920
<v Speaker 1>Super Bowl. Um, but it's uh, you know, it's it's

0:07:45.960 --> 0:07:47.960
<v Speaker 1>not a situation where he's gonna be able to carry

0:07:47.960 --> 0:07:50.920
<v Speaker 1>the team behind him. That's not that's just not who

0:07:50.960 --> 0:07:52.760
<v Speaker 1>he is. And and he just doesn't have the physical

0:07:52.760 --> 0:07:55.200
<v Speaker 1>tools to be able to do that. So you know

0:07:55.280 --> 0:07:56.920
<v Speaker 1>that that's that's a little bit of the challenge for

0:07:56.920 --> 0:07:58.920
<v Speaker 1>the team right now is as you're kind of trying

0:07:58.960 --> 0:08:02.080
<v Speaker 1>to build up a young raw ster, you you're hoping

0:08:02.120 --> 0:08:03.880
<v Speaker 1>that you have a quarterback maybe that can elevate some

0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:06.200
<v Speaker 1>of those guys a little bit more. And um, I

0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:08.000
<v Speaker 1>don't think we've seen as much of that this year

0:08:08.000 --> 0:08:10.120
<v Speaker 1>from Gardner Minshew. And and you mentioned the clocks ticking

0:08:10.120 --> 0:08:14.920
<v Speaker 1>because Jaguars are loaded with h with draft capital going forward,

0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:17.000
<v Speaker 1>and this is a draft that looks like it's gonna

0:08:17.000 --> 0:08:20.000
<v Speaker 1>be pretty interesting at the quarterback position, so they're gonna

0:08:20.040 --> 0:08:22.200
<v Speaker 1>have to make that decision in that verdict once we

0:08:22.200 --> 0:08:23.760
<v Speaker 1>get to the end of the year. That is a

0:08:23.800 --> 0:08:27.880
<v Speaker 1>professional transition to our bonus content on the Official Jaguars

0:08:27.920 --> 0:08:31.640
<v Speaker 1>Podcast Network presented by a Vice Star. We asked Daniel Jeremiah,

0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:34.920
<v Speaker 1>top draft analysts on NFL Network, about the top college

0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:38.080
<v Speaker 1>quarterbacks this year. We know about Lawrence Justin Fields gets

0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:41.240
<v Speaker 1>cranked up this weekend in Ohio State. Trey Lance is

0:08:41.280 --> 0:08:44.120
<v Speaker 1>a name everybody's throwing around out of North Dakota State.

0:08:44.160 --> 0:08:46.320
<v Speaker 1>All of a sudden, the quarterback hot bed. Are those

0:08:46.360 --> 0:08:48.600
<v Speaker 1>really the three and then the rest of the pack?

0:08:48.760 --> 0:08:50.840
<v Speaker 1>How does it work at the quarterback position at least

0:08:50.840 --> 0:08:53.480
<v Speaker 1>early midway through the college season? Yeah, I mean I did.

0:08:53.480 --> 0:08:55.640
<v Speaker 1>I did my homework on the Big three over the summer,

0:08:55.720 --> 0:08:57.800
<v Speaker 1>so I've I've got those guys a pretty good feel

0:08:57.840 --> 0:09:00.080
<v Speaker 1>for them, and I'm looking forward to diving into to

0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:02.880
<v Speaker 1>what we've seen thus far. Fields hadn't even out there yet.

0:09:03.040 --> 0:09:04.720
<v Speaker 1>I only seen Trey Lance for that one, you know,

0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:08.040
<v Speaker 1>exhibition game. Basically, uh so you get a chance to

0:09:08.080 --> 0:09:10.280
<v Speaker 1>dig a little bit deeper, but so this time of

0:09:10.360 --> 0:09:12.600
<v Speaker 1>year is where I'm collecting. So I'm I'm calling and

0:09:12.640 --> 0:09:15.439
<v Speaker 1>collecting names and then I can start really jumping in.

0:09:15.800 --> 0:09:17.400
<v Speaker 1>What the name that I keep hearing over and over

0:09:17.400 --> 0:09:19.240
<v Speaker 1>again is this b y U kid? You know as

0:09:19.280 --> 0:09:21.640
<v Speaker 1>b y U quarterback has got a lot of buzz

0:09:21.840 --> 0:09:24.240
<v Speaker 1>with my scouting buddies. So I had somebody with a

0:09:24.280 --> 0:09:25.480
<v Speaker 1>team the other day tell me the thought he could

0:09:25.559 --> 0:09:27.720
<v Speaker 1>end up being the second quarterback picked, and I was like, whoa,

0:09:28.080 --> 0:09:30.280
<v Speaker 1>But that's you know, that's somebody who's generated a lot

0:09:30.320 --> 0:09:33.880
<v Speaker 1>of buzz um. You know, Trask at Florida is big, strong,

0:09:34.200 --> 0:09:36.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's a he's a good player. Having done

0:09:36.520 --> 0:09:38.520
<v Speaker 1>a deep, deep dive on him, but from what I've seen,

0:09:38.559 --> 0:09:40.199
<v Speaker 1>I thought he looked like kind of a middle round,

0:09:40.320 --> 0:09:42.920
<v Speaker 1>you know pick. So there's there's gonna be a bunch

0:09:42.960 --> 0:09:45.480
<v Speaker 1>of other guys to jump into. But Lawrence has taken

0:09:45.520 --> 0:09:47.800
<v Speaker 1>his play from last year, which I thought was a

0:09:47.880 --> 0:09:51.280
<v Speaker 1>little bit underwhelming from what the expectation was. I mean,

0:09:51.280 --> 0:09:53.760
<v Speaker 1>the year was incredible for for Clemson, but I thought

0:09:53.760 --> 0:09:55.160
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the year he kind of tailed

0:09:55.160 --> 0:09:58.040
<v Speaker 1>off a little bit, particularly in the last game. He's

0:09:58.040 --> 0:10:00.800
<v Speaker 1>playing consistent, He's playing decise if he is throwing the

0:10:00.840 --> 0:10:03.640
<v Speaker 1>ball accurately, and I think he's kind of separated himself

0:10:03.640 --> 0:10:06.280
<v Speaker 1>a little bit um and then I think it's gonna

0:10:06.280 --> 0:10:08.120
<v Speaker 1>be a fair fight, in my opinion, for the for

0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:10.320
<v Speaker 1>the number two quarterback job. And I've been a big

0:10:10.400 --> 0:10:12.600
<v Speaker 1>Trade Lance fan. I liked him over the summer when

0:10:12.640 --> 0:10:16.160
<v Speaker 1>I studied him more than justin fields, and uh, you know,

0:10:16.160 --> 0:10:18.240
<v Speaker 1>I make sure to see how that all shakes out.

0:10:18.280 --> 0:10:20.080
<v Speaker 1>But there's gonna be those big three, and I think

0:10:20.080 --> 0:10:21.560
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna have a chance to see a fourth and

0:10:21.600 --> 0:10:23.800
<v Speaker 1>maybe even a fifth in the first round when it's

0:10:23.800 --> 0:10:25.679
<v Speaker 1>all said and done. It's funny how that works, right,

0:10:25.720 --> 0:10:28.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you'll have everywhere two names and then here

0:10:28.160 --> 0:10:31.320
<v Speaker 1>come five in the first round every year. And uh,

0:10:31.480 --> 0:10:33.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, the the good thing if I'm you know,

0:10:33.520 --> 0:10:36.240
<v Speaker 1>if you're a quarterback coming into this draft class, and

0:10:36.640 --> 0:10:40.560
<v Speaker 1>I would be excited because it feels similarly too. When

0:10:40.600 --> 0:10:43.240
<v Speaker 1>we had you know, Mahomes who went to a really

0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:46.000
<v Speaker 1>good team, Deshaun Watson who went to a good team.

0:10:46.040 --> 0:10:47.680
<v Speaker 1>At that time, it was just happened to be picking

0:10:47.760 --> 0:10:49.560
<v Speaker 1>up there and there there were moves to go up

0:10:49.559 --> 0:10:51.839
<v Speaker 1>there and get those guys Um, you look at Lamar

0:10:51.920 --> 0:10:54.280
<v Speaker 1>Jackson falling in the first round. Well, there's a great

0:10:54.320 --> 0:10:55.800
<v Speaker 1>team there at the bottom of the first round in

0:10:55.800 --> 0:10:59.080
<v Speaker 1>the Ravens. So if you're a quarterback, the ideal situation is, yeah,

0:10:59.080 --> 0:11:00.920
<v Speaker 1>you want to be the first we all pick. That's great.

0:11:01.360 --> 0:11:03.480
<v Speaker 1>I'd rather go to a good football team that can

0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:05.760
<v Speaker 1>nurture me and help me grow and develop. And I

0:11:05.760 --> 0:11:07.880
<v Speaker 1>think when you look at teams like the Saints who

0:11:07.880 --> 0:11:10.400
<v Speaker 1>could be in the quarterback market. Look at the Pittsburgh

0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:14.120
<v Speaker 1>Steelers with an aging quarterback, the Colts with an aging quarterback. Um,

0:11:14.280 --> 0:11:17.079
<v Speaker 1>there's been rumblings at San Francisco. You know, they might

0:11:17.160 --> 0:11:19.240
<v Speaker 1>have had enough of Jimmy Garoppolo want to go in

0:11:19.240 --> 0:11:22.439
<v Speaker 1>a different direction. And these are really really good organizations,

0:11:22.440 --> 0:11:24.600
<v Speaker 1>good football teams that you'd have a chance as a

0:11:24.600 --> 0:11:28.120
<v Speaker 1>young quarterback to being an ideal spot. Daniel Jeremiah with

0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:30.920
<v Speaker 1>his final thought here and kind of big picture COVID

0:11:30.960 --> 0:11:34.240
<v Speaker 1>world right now. In terms of covering games, obviously you

0:11:34.320 --> 0:11:36.520
<v Speaker 1>do the Chargers games. You work in the NFL network

0:11:36.640 --> 0:11:40.160
<v Speaker 1>things as well. You've got this Amazon business now on games,

0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:44.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean, do you rest what happens? My wife says

0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:48.080
<v Speaker 1>that my hobby is collecting jobs. So that's uh, that's

0:11:48.080 --> 0:11:50.080
<v Speaker 1>been my hobby right now. But I think Bucky, you know,

0:11:50.120 --> 0:11:52.400
<v Speaker 1>Bucky's doing doing his many jobs are more than I am.

0:11:52.520 --> 0:11:55.040
<v Speaker 1>So we uh, we stay busy, but it's it's fun.

0:11:55.080 --> 0:11:56.760
<v Speaker 1>Like this week you get a chance to do three games,

0:11:56.760 --> 0:11:59.480
<v Speaker 1>so two with Amazon on Amazon Prime and then they

0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:02.200
<v Speaker 1>stream them on Twitch. It's Twitch dot tv, Slash Moved

0:12:02.240 --> 0:12:04.520
<v Speaker 1>the Sticks and Bucky's with me on those, so it's me,

0:12:04.600 --> 0:12:07.400
<v Speaker 1>Bucky and Joy Taylor, who you may know from the

0:12:07.440 --> 0:12:09.240
<v Speaker 1>from Colin Cowhard Show. So we have a lot of

0:12:09.280 --> 0:12:11.599
<v Speaker 1>fun on those. So we've got um this week, a

0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:13.920
<v Speaker 1>Monday game, a Thursday game, and then a Sunday game

0:12:13.920 --> 0:12:16.760
<v Speaker 1>with with Jags and Chargers. So I love it. There's

0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:19.320
<v Speaker 1>no such things too foot, too much football, you know that, Daniel,

0:12:19.360 --> 0:12:21.440
<v Speaker 1>great stuff. Thanks for the time as always, and have

0:12:21.480 --> 0:12:23.400
<v Speaker 1>a great call. I appreciate you.
