I try not to be hyperbolic, Brian, when people get into like these exaggeration contests,
00:08
right? Like who can say the most outlandish thing? It's sadly what a lot of media has become.
00:13
But Tischler last night on our stream said something that I think is pretty damn accurate.
00:18
I'm curious where you land on this. Jaden Daniels now on the season. It's not even worth looking at
00:23
the Vegas odds because they're so overwhelming that he's going to win rookie of the year.
00:28
That's over. It's been over, but the content machine demanded that people started talking
00:35
about Bo Nix for a period of time. What would the difference? I think Bo Nix can be a good
00:39
quarterback, but there's a massive, massive difference. And I'm not the first person to
00:43
espouse this, but I hopefully people are listening more. The difference between a
00:48
quarterback that can win you a game and a quarterback that can help a team win.
00:54
Like there are, there are quarterbacks that could take their team and go win a game. And
00:58
then there are guys that are part of a team that wins games. Like there's, there's just
01:02
different categories, different tiers of this. And if you don't see where Jaden is in this,
01:08
then you and I are breathing the same oxygen on the season as a rookie, he's completing 70% of
01:14
his past 69.7 over 3,303 passing yards, 22 touchdowns against eight picks. He's averaging
01:23
about two 20, a game through, through the air. And then that doesn't even include the rushing
01:28
stuff where he's gone for, I mean, maybe that's silly to think. I think it's possible considering
01:37
how ineffective yeah, he is now he's what he's their leading rusher now because the whole season,
01:44
the whole season, because Eckler went down, the rush, the run games just been incredibly
01:49
ineffective. I'm not saying it's good that Jaden's you're leading rusher, but remember
01:54
Robinson missed, I think he's missed three or four games by now. Yesterday, Jaden took the lead.
02:00
Jaden has 737 yards on the ground with another six touchdowns. B Rob is at 729 yards on the
02:07
ground with eight touchdowns. What this kid is doing is just so special. And I think the accuracy
02:16
and I think the hardest thing for young quarterbacks, you've said this forever,
02:20
Brian is to be able to throw to a spot, right? I mean, hell you see veteran quarterbacks.
02:26
They can't throw to a spot and they need to see a guy open first. And we've seen it here for a
02:31
long time. The recognition or loves, he posted this video on Twitter yesterday that I, I, I
02:38
retweeted. Maybe we'll just play the audio, frankly, because the recognition on the touchdown
02:46
throw to Terry McLaurin, where McLaurin is now tied the franchise, the franchise single season
02:52
receiving record. Oh, by the way, they have two games left to throw that ball where he's about to
03:00
get crushed and to put it to a spot where Terry can make a play and the play Terry made on it.
03:06
So spectacular. He's looking to his right, looking to his right, has a son in his eyes.
03:09
Last second flips to his left track ball. Terry's an outfielder. He knows how to track a football.
03:16
Just everything they're doing is at such a high level, Ryan, that I mean this seriously,
03:24
because in no way do you want to say he's the best quarterback in the league. That'd be silly.
03:29
Right? I think my homes, Lamar, Josh Allen, there are dudes that have done this at a much higher
03:36
level for a much longer time. And you just, but they're supposed to be doing, I mean, he's a
03:40
rookie. I mean, that's the ultimate thing. So I think we don't have to explain anything to anybody.
03:44
You don't have to sit up here and worry about his career. He is a rookie. This is his first year
03:48
and he's doing that. And as Tana said yesterday, think about the next year, the second, third year
03:55
of players that grow. You know, we can't worry about this. And there is a culture of hate in
04:04
this country these days. To hell with those people. I like what I'm seeing in this young man.
04:09
And I think he has the personality and attitude that he's going to keep improving.
04:14
So here's, I totally agree with you. I don't think we need to get caught up in a numbers game,
04:18
a rankings game. All that stuff is artificial, right? They go play the games. That's how you
04:23
solve things. I do find this one kind of fascinating though, in the NFC opposing defenses,
04:35
who's the guy they want to see the least two minutes with the ball in his hand.
04:39
Listen, man, I've had people hit me today.
04:42
Golf and Darnold have been really good. I'm not trying to discount anything,
04:45
but this dude is in a different conversation. People that are Cowboy fans,
04:52
the real Raven fans, the true Eagle fans, they all are saying,
04:58
Jayden Daniels is a problem. That's their exact words. He's a problem. And when people,
05:05
if you don't know lingo and hip hop language and stuff, when they say something is a problem,
05:11
that means that you don't want to see that person in a bad situation. And this dude right here
05:17
smiles while he's whipping your ass. That's the person you need to be concerned about.
05:23
He's always chilling. When you watch him on, I will listen to him in a little thing. He did
05:29
an interview. I think it was with Kevin Durant and somebody, he said, man, you know, I just,
05:36
when I'm on the field, people just, I'm just, they say I'm smooth. I'm just always
05:40
chill. You watch him yesterday. He never seems like he's exerting too much.
05:46
Even when he runs the 40, 30 glide, he's a glider. And I was saying that going all the way
05:53
back to when they drafted him, it's just the level of poise and calm and just staying in the moment.
06:07
Even last night in the post game, he's like, yeah, we're going to celebrate this for 24
06:10
hours and it's back to work. And we out of it. You believe it. I've heard lots of quarterbacks
06:16
say all the right things. Yeah. I've heard and seen that it's different with this dude, man,
06:22
when you, when you watch him after game before game at the event, you went with him over at
06:29
a Raising Cane. Sure. He's always the same dude. And as he stated in a little comment earlier this
06:35
year, when you always the same, it's kind of hard to have a drop off. Yeah. You know, he doesn't get
06:41
overly hype. He doesn't get overly concerned. He's just who he is. Like, if you make a mistake,
06:47
you understand, I have to correct this. So you go correct it and you move forward. You don't make a
06:51
mistake and go, oh yeah, we got to go back to the drawing board, man. No, no, no. You know,
06:55
what mistake you made this focus a little better next time. It's a, it really is pretty remarkable
07:04
with Jaden dude. One, I, I, I didn't want to address this when he did the thing at Raising
07:11
Canes last week. And did you notice he was walking like, that's how he walks, dude. The fact that
07:18
I heard somebody yesterday, a week later say that he was limping, like, please.
07:23
All right. So did he limp in the game yesterday? It's his gate, dude. He's a different cat. And I
07:30
think people need to stop reaching dude. Everybody, Washington came into that game
07:35
yesterday, nine and five and people are like, oh, they're not good. They're average. Cause
07:40
you know what? You beat the people on your schedule, the teams on your schedule. I mean,
07:45
let's be real. You are very, very right about the conversation of goalposts moving with them.
07:53
Wash it's Philly's offense yesterday. I understand it was Kenny picket, but let's be real. The best
07:58
weapon Philly has had all season is a fellow named Saquon Barkley. And he, he, he, he hit
08:04
him early. Undoubtedly. He threw some haymakers. He, I mean, he had, what'd you say a buck 10 in
08:10
the first quarter, but offensively and defensively, they made really good adjustments in this game.
08:16
I applaud cliff. Cause they eventually were like, yo, we cannot run the ball. We're going to have
08:21
to go old school air raid. And they just started going for wideouts almost called in yesterday
08:25
today for, uh, I was going to be on an IR injury report because Dan Quinn almost broke my hand when
08:30
he gave me a high five. Damn coach. He gave me some knuckles on his way out of the press
08:37
conference room. That, that was not a soft one. Um, that's it's gotta mean a lot for DQ. I thought
08:44
the coaches did a really good job yesterday. You got to credit coaching when your team turns it
08:49
over five times and is able to overcome that and get.
