00:00Oh, there's JP one. Well, look, JP wants to be played. Troy Eggman talking about Jaden

00:06Daniels. Take a listen. The guy who stands out was the most impressive that I spoke with

00:15this year was was Jaden Daniels. I was blown away as soon as we started talking to him.

00:21There was this energy that he exuded. And you said this guy's got it. You know, he has.

00:26And I just remember when we got done, I said to Joe, I said, this guy's amazing. I mean,

00:31this guy's the real deal. Now, he'd only played two games and it was kind of up and down and

00:36he had done some good things, did some things that weren't so great. But I didn't have him

00:40in week 17 where you've got this this this whole portfolio of a season. And you say,

00:44yeah, of course, he's I'd be shocked if Jaden Daniels is if we're not talking about him

00:49like we did this year, every year of his career. I think he's I think he's.

00:56So that just stood out to me and credit to Landini for tracking it down. I kind of I

01:00heard this morning on Van Pelt's podcast, like the secondhand version of that Stanford

01:06Steve talking about Troy saying that. But I think that goes hand in hand with what we

01:11heard my homes when I asked him at the Super Bowl what he thought of Jaden and the biggest

01:17difference you get to the NFL and by and large, especially if you are a if you're a drafted

01:24quarterback in the NFL, especially if you're a first rounder or even a Friday night pick

01:30like probably anybody that's drafted, but definitely the first couple of rounds, you

01:36have every physical tool, big, strong throw.

01:42A lot of it is like a mental processing speed, but what speeds that up is the work you put

01:49in. Yeah. I mean, did you notice that throughout your career? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, the whole

01:53thing is, you know, you don't have to be drafted very high. If you're in the NFL and

01:57they gave you a chance, you have the skills. Now, if you stay where you were when they

02:02draft you, you will get caught up and you pass by. But if you put in the work and I

02:07was listening to a thing and I was trying to find it with Ryan Clark talking with Jason

02:11Kelsey on his show. And he had also was my man, James Winston, on there. And he was

02:16basically telling us that, man, listen. I watched this to go to peer health is Ryan

02:21Clark's son and Jaden. They both went to ASU together. And he said, listen, man, you

02:27see this guy go through stuff, but he comes back the next time better. And Jason Kelsey

02:31was basically an Eagle fan. I better get used to this. This is good. I have watched all

02:38types of people that normally don't give rookies any praise, praising this guy from the NFL.

02:45And you have to understand what you have. And I think now it's time for the rest of

02:50the crew to understand if you're not up to par, you won't be around because they don't

02:54get people that's up to par with him to get the best out of him.

03:00You got to put the work in. I think he's clearly doing it. And I think it makes just a

03:05massive, massive impact. You know what I'm saying? Like and there's no. There's no way.

03:16There's no way to know what will come, but at the same time, dude, the best guys have

03:23Tom Brady and Padrama homes. Don't play the game in a similar fashion. Nope. Montana is

03:33probably closer to my homes than Tom, but he wasn't as statuesque as Brady, but he didn't

03:41run like Pat can.
