00:00They want Jaden to take care of himself.

00:02Everybody should.

00:03I want him to, but I think the more we discuss it,

00:09and if you start getting on a person's nerve,

00:11you know what they do?

00:12They say, I know how to play it,

00:14I've been taking care of myself,

00:15I'm gonna keep playing the way I play.

00:16Because the moment you start on the football field

00:19thinking, trying to do what everybody tells you,

00:21and you start thinking about it,

00:22you're gonna get caught in the wrong way.

00:25If you figure, if things go right,

00:27Jaden will log about 500, 600 snaps,

00:33if I had to guess.

00:34Who's a, pick a quarterback from last season

00:37that started all the snaps.

00:41Jordan Love?

00:42How's Jordan Love?

00:43Did Love start all of his?

00:44I believe so.

00:47Did he ever take a hit?

00:48No, I mean, of course he took a hit.

00:50I'm just asking.

00:51I'm saying more like,

00:56I'm more looking.

00:57You remember Pat Mahomes did a quarterback sneak

01:00and hurt himself?

01:01Yeah.

01:02Quarterback sneak, although it's a lot of people,

01:04that is probably one of the easiest plays

01:06of a quarterback, you know what?

01:07They don't really get hit,

01:08they just fall on top of the pile.

01:10And he got hurt.

01:13So, I would say, I guarantee a lot of people,

01:17we should never run a quarterback sneak.

01:21If it's the interest, why wouldn't you?

01:23What I've said that concerns me a little

01:26with the run game, all right,

01:28so Jordan Love played 1,083 snaps last year.

01:33He had,

01:38how many of those were pass attempts?

01:41So of 1,083 snaps, 579 pass attempts, right?

01:46So, let's be real, on a running play,

01:48Jaden should not be getting hit.

01:51You're probably taking out 40, 45% of your playbook

01:55where he's not gonna get touched.

01:57Then, on the rest of it, there's a chance, right?

02:01And of the 500 plays, let's say,

02:06maybe 100 of them are run plays?

02:10Like, he either ends up scrambling,

02:11or there's some sort of RPO going or something?

02:15Probably wasn't even 100 for him.

02:17Like, the amount of danger is in the,

02:20like, the danger is,

02:22like, people that worry about sharks at the ocean,

02:27I bet, I bet people drown in the ocean

02:31at a 10 to one rate, 100 to one rate,

02:33than sharks at the ocean.

02:35But people worry about sharks.

02:37This kid's gonna be throwing from the pocket

02:40with maybe a rookie or maybe a career journeyman

02:44as, at left tackle.

02:46Like, that should be your greater concern, man.

02:49Don't get caught up in the list, though.

02:51That's all I'm trying to say.

02:52Be worried about the riptide,

02:54not the possibility of a shark.
