00:00All right, let's talk Jaden Daniels here.

00:01There's a couple of props here,

00:03so I'll let you stretch your legs here.

00:04First, we'll go for the passing yards of 220 and a half.

00:08And then we'll talk about the rushing yards

00:10of 59 and a half.

00:13What do these numbers mean?

00:14How do they portend for the upcoming game, Joe?

00:17Yeah, with Daniels,

00:18I know it's a really tough corner matchup.

00:20I know the Eagles' defense is really good,

00:22but I'm gonna go over.

00:24The last game that he played against the Eagles,

00:27he threw for 258.

00:29And you could say,

00:30well, Jalen Hurts was in that game.

00:31I don't care.

00:31The defense is still the defense.

00:33The defense was still in that game.

00:34He threw for 258.

00:35So what he's doing is he's finding the De'Ami Browns.

00:37He's finding the Zacchias.

00:39He's finding the Zachars.

00:40He's making everybody else better.

00:43So I think what we're looking for right here

00:45is the over on the 220 and a half.

00:46I think he's gonna show up in the big spot.

00:48I don't think it's like a 290 game,

00:50but I think he's gonna be in that 230 range

00:52when all is said and done

00:52because he's gonna have to be at some point.

00:55Also, you're gonna look at the rushing yards

00:57for Jaden Daniels, 59 and a half,

00:59which is also a pretty big number,

01:01but he has shown you time and time again,

01:02he's gonna get out there in space.

01:04Right now, you're catching that number at 55 and a half.

01:06Now, this one is kinda spot on here.

01:09I think this is gonna be an over

01:10because I think at certain times here,

01:12Jaden Daniels, because that secondary is so good,

01:14he's gonna have to tuck and run.

01:15Now, he has not reached this number

01:17in three of his last three games.

01:19The three games prior, he went over it in all three,

01:22against New Orleans, against Philadelphia in week 16,

01:25and against Atlanta.

01:26So coming back to that game against the Eagles

01:28where he rushed for 81 yards,

01:30I think the special sauce here

01:32is Jaden Daniels taking the ball in his hands

01:34and saying, all right, you know what?

01:36If you're gonna lock down my number one target,

01:38I'm gonna make you pay

01:39and I'm gonna be the guy that extends drives.

01:42And there's not enough guys in the field

01:43to guard everybody all the time.

01:44And Jaden Daniels has shown you too,

01:46he's been smart enough to run with the football

01:48in a better capacity.

01:49In college, he was very bad about not taking slides,

01:53not taking the sideline.

01:55He's gotten much better about that in the NFL.

01:57That was a big question I think a lot of us had,

01:58could he make that adjustment?

01:59And he has.

02:00So I know there's a lot of overs,

02:02we're gonna get to some unders,

02:03but I think Jaden Daniels, Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley,

02:06the big time players,

02:07I think with the football in their hand

02:08are the guys you wanna look for the over investments today.
