00:00Jalen Hurts, 320 fantasy points on the season.

00:04We mentioned him as three.

00:05He did not outscore Jared Goff, who had 325 fantasy points.

00:10Keep in mind, Hurts missed a game.

00:13Goff will also play Sunday night,

00:16and it'll look much different at the end of the season,

00:19for those of you looking at rankings for next year,

00:21because Goff's gonna put up another 20 or 30,

00:23I would guess, against the Vikings.

00:26I gotta tell ya, George Goff, really, to me,

00:30was super impressive, even in a season

00:33where he didn't run the ball at all,

00:35and in a season where Burrow,

00:37no one talks about Goff, everyone talks about Burrow.

00:39If I went into next year as Goff as my QB1,

00:43I have zero problem with that whatsoever.

00:46I don't care if Ben Johnson's there or not.

00:47The Lions offense, still gonna be dynamic.

00:50I want Hurts over Goff, let me be clear.

00:52But I'm just saying, Goff is a great consolation prize.

00:56If you don't get one of the first four or five quarterbacks,

00:58he's in my top 10 next year.

01:02Your last lines were on that, right?

01:04He's in my top 10, and he's probably much better

01:06than top 10, by the way.

01:07I could probably go top eight, but I'm taking Jackson.

01:11I'm taking Allen, all right?

01:13I'm taking Burrow, I'm taking Hurts, I'm taking Daniels.

01:18Right now, it's still at the top of my head.

01:19All right, so now he's at six at best.

01:21So obviously, I'm not taking Goff over,

01:25I think it was Hurts, right?

01:27You and I both have Hurts pretty much at three here.

01:29And the reason those numbers are close, by the way,

01:31is Hurts is not gonna play Sunday, missed one game,

01:33and he pretty much missed all of another game, too.

01:35That Washington game, he only played, what,

01:36the first series or two before he got hurt.

01:38So he's gonna miss three games

01:41for all intents and purposes there.

01:43Goff's had a fantastic season.

01:44The other reason I wouldn't take Goff high, high

01:48is because Jameer Gibbs is too damn good.

01:51All right, he's stealing touchdowns, all right?

01:53They don't need Goff to throw 40 touchdown passes

01:55because Gibbs is gonna run a whole bunch of it.

01:57Montgomery, assuming he's there next year,

01:59gonna run a whole bunch in here.

02:01This is how this team is made.

02:03So listen, Goff, he's definitely better

02:06than I thought he would be going to Detroit here.

02:08And as you said, I would have no problem

02:10as my quarterback, one in a one quarterback league,

02:13but I'm not taking him over Hurts, no.

02:1536 touchdown passes for Goff this season, incredible.

02:19Kyler Murray, Justin Herbert,

02:21these are the consolation prizes

02:22right outside the top 12.

02:25People would be surprised with the season

02:27that Justin Herbert had, that he fell below Kyler Murray,

02:30probably because of the rushing yards.

02:32280.5 for Murray, 260.2 for Herbert.

02:38We talked about that on the show last week.

02:39One of my favorite games was Arizona.

02:41Arizona did end up covering that game

02:44like I thought they would, but they didn't even score, man.

02:46Like that's not the way that I thought

02:47that game was gonna go at all.

02:50I'm not sure what to make of Murray

02:51over the course of his career.

02:53If you told me Herbert did this exactly the same next year,

02:55I wouldn't be surprised.

02:57I think Kyler Murray had a very disappointing year.

03:00I mean, and it's funny, Craig,

03:01because you look at the final numbers,

03:02he's gonna end up being a top 10 fantasy quarterback.

03:05I think right now he's eight or nine.

03:06So he's gonna squeeze in there, but I expected more.

03:09He's not running, not as much as he should.

03:12They don't design runs for him.

03:14It's almost like he said, I don't wanna run.

03:16You know, I don't want those design runs.

03:18I'll run when I have to out of the pocket,

03:20you know, when it breaks down,

03:21but he's not running enough really,

03:23because he should be, in my mind,

03:25just outside of the top guys, right?

03:28Just outside.

03:29Instead, he's, you know, more of a bottom top 10

03:31in that eight to 12 range.

03:33And I expect more from him.

03:35That being said, I'm probably taking him over, Herbert,

03:38as of right now.

03:39I don't know what the charge is gonna do

03:41as far as helping the receiving core there.

03:43You know, so I need to see that.

03:44But right now, as it stands, I would still take Murray.

03:47I think there's just more upside with him.
