00:00Let's start with Jaden Daniels, there's no way he's playing in that football game.

00:08I agree with you.

00:10He's LP today and listed officially as questionable, but there's five reasons he's not playing.

00:16First of all, rib cartilage is more painful and harder to block.

00:21Number two, they're not going to risk him being a half step slow and get hurt in a different

00:26way.

00:28Number three, you don't put a rookie quarterback in who basically hasn't practiced all week.

00:36This is not Tom Brady.

00:37This is not Patrick Mahomes.

00:39Number four, the media says the first pick, Caleb Williams, against second pick Jaden

00:44Daniels, big game.

00:46No one in the Washington Commanders building cares about that quote matchup.

00:50That's a media made, fan made deal.

00:53And finally, I guarantee you this, Scott, a number two overall draft pick quarterback

00:58will start for the Washington Commanders, and that will be Marcus Mariota.

01:03Yeah, and he'll be running for his life against that Bears defense.

01:07I've had broken ribs, I've had torn cartilage in my ribs, and I got to tell you, it is the

01:13worst.

01:14I mean, I couldn't get out of a car, I couldn't get out of bed, I couldn't get out of a sofa,

01:20I couldn't get out of anything.

01:22It is the most agonizing, and if you had a cough, if you got a cold or a cough with a

01:28torn cartilage and you had to cough every 30 seconds, you'd want to jump off a bridge.

01:34It is the worst.
