How does Jayden Daniels go onto the field, in the huddle, at the line of scrimmage, and not know that he has a timeout or not?

Yeah.

Um, first of all, I s- I saw the, uh, the press conference of, of Jayden Daniels talking about what had happened, and you know, he didn't want to throw anyone under the bus.

But the way he did it, I, I, I, I didn't love that.

I didn't think it was a leadership perspective.

I th- I would have gone up there and said, "This falls on me.

I'm the quarterback of the team.

What do you expect to happen in this game?

How does Jayden Daniels go onto the field, in the huddle, at the line of scrimmage, and not know that he has a timeout or not?

Yeah.

Um, first of all, I s- I saw the, uh, the press conference of, of Jayden Daniels talking about what had happened, and you know, he didn't wanna throw anyone under the bus.

But the way he did it, I, I, I, I didn't love that.

I didn't think it was a leadership perspective.

I, I would've gone up there and said, "This falls on me.

I'm the quarterback of the team.

What do you expect to happen in this game?

Who are you speaking to when these guys turn the channel to NFL Network? Who's going to love this type of information when they watch these games?

Yeah, I think you saw some of the promo there.

Nice job reading that and just showing what we really want to do with this altcast.

And it's like people are like, there's another altcast.

There's another, we're trying to make the fans smarter.

And quite honestly, I would say we don't want to put any fan into one bucket.

I feel like we would.

What is something that we may learn or see about those two quarterbacks in this type of broadcast?

And so which teams are you just still entering week three wondering who they really are?

I think there's two.

One plays tonight, and it's the Green Bay Packers.

When you look at the Green Bay Packers, just – In the offseason, and you look at what they're building, you look Jordan Love to me as a guy who's trending up, LeFleur, offensive genius, all this stuff.

And all of a sudden, like you got offensive lines, that's hurt.

You have your receiver is hurt.

And all of a sudden, this offense is literally the worst in the league, the worst at running.

yeah they they um they're like the chargers they lost their first two at home except uh the houston texans lost to the bills and the bangles good teams right yeah and the bangles appear to be i know i just went a little higher register there the bangles are a team that for the first time in a long time we're talking about how their defense is getting them through some of these games so far chase

How do the Chargers fix this?

Well, [sighs] yeah.

Look, y- you're playing the Raiders.

[laughs] You were saying the two layup games.

You got the Raiders and you got the Cardinals.

Like, everyone in their right mind, based on what we've heard in the off-season, will be, "Oh, okay, they, they're gonna be 2-0." At least be 1-1.

The dreaded 0-2 start.

Uh, what, what can you do?

How do the Chargers fix this?

Well, yeah.

Look, y- you're playing the Raiders.

[laughs] You were saying the two layup games.

You got the Raiders, and you got the Cardinals.

Like, everyone in their right mind, based on what we've heard in the off-season, would be like, "Oh, okay, they, they're gonna be 2-0." At least be 1-1.

The dreaded 0-2 start, everyone's heard of the stat.

Uh, what, what can you do?

Talk about the pride that you took in being the number two.

Yeah, I mean, I do think there's a lot of pride, and sometimes it is hard later in your career, you're talking Jameis, to really stay focused because at this point in Jameis' career, at this point in my career, like once you get to year 10, you're like, okay, starter job probably gone.

Number one job is to be a backup.

And for me, I always said that as long as I had the fire and desire to play the game of football, I would play.

I had offers going into year 15, but I sort of, year 13, it was like, okay, this is the same thing, and it's amazing, and I never take it for granted.

But the two things, and Peter, you know this, and I've said this before, the two things that make a really good backup is, number one, you said it, you have to play well when your number is called.

That's how you stay in the league for so long.

What have you seen from the Mississippi state quarterback?

What are you looking for?

Yeah, I mean, look.

The game, Michigan versus Western, there's a lot of talk about the clock, all that stuff.

I think Michigan looked good defensively.

I thought they looked pretty poor offensively, if I'm being completely honest with you.

And it all starts with the quarterback.

Bryce Underwood, for me, he just didn't look comfortable.

were talking about in the office with with marty and mcgee and i said for people that and you know better than anyone playing at missouri record-setting quarterback there if you don't know it it doesn't mean it's not good it doesn't exist but people who know that rivalry and know how it is a nasty nasty i can't wait to watch that tonight

What are your thoughts on tonight's game, how you kinda see it, Chase?

Yeah, starting with Georgia Tech, for me, they're gonna run the piss out of the ball.

I mean, Malachi Hosley coming back as well, and then Justice Haynes.

I mean, look, uh, Georgia Tech in general, they have not done well in the portal, and that's by design.

Meaning, like, Brent Key only turned 20 transfer portals, um, brought in, compared to Colorado's 43, prime as the most, uh, in the Power Four.

But when you watch this Georgia Tech team, to me they are all about identity, and their identity right now is running the football.

They have one receiver coming back, Jordan Allen.

Who are you most excited to watch this year as far as quarterback-OC combos go, and who do you expect to have a big year that maybe people aren't looking at?

But when did you fall into that and be like, oh, this is something that's going to be massive for me?

It's a great call.

So 2022, with the story of the Interval Network, I had worked there.

I just signed a one-year deal to do the show.

And I knew I had an offer out from the Raiders to the next year to be their backup and to sign with them.

But I was just like, well, my wife was like, good luck.

I'm not moving.

And you got the iPad markers on the side too.

There is no competition

...

this morning.

I would agree with that.

I thought you were spot on, like always, Dan.

Um, look, there was never, in my opinion, when you signed Kirk Cousins, an actual quarterback competition.

I thought that Fernando Mendoza in the preseason, I thought he played okay.

Are you leaning towards the Chargers being more successful or the Cowboys being more successful?

Mm.

Like, always.

It's, there's nothing bigger.

It was like big team, little me.

Like, it's about the team, have fun, protect it.

Competition, we're not only competing against ourselves, we're competing against everyone, uh, uh, obviously in the league, but we're competing against ourselves every practice so we can get better.

And number three is fun.

Two's like, yeah.

Good for you.

First one.

And he's great.

Like, it's awesome.

But then, you know, you have the girls and your heart just sort of melts.

You know, it was like one of those things.

It was our...

Or was your old man?

So what what do you what have you seen that Todd Munkin at least can hang his hat on here to announce him as the starter? Yeah.

Not a lot, not a lot to be completely honest.

Look, I haven't, I haven't been around practice, right? So practice in general, like you got to play well in preseason, but that's only, I think Deshaun's had 27 reps or 32, something along those lines in actual preseason games.

He's had way more in practice.

So he could be lighting it up in practice, but just taking practice away.

Cause I don't know, you watch the game and it's, it's safe.

It's underneath throws.

This is

Okay, so we have quarterback competition in Cleveland.

I, I think there is.

Uh, like I would say if you were at OTAs and you were hearing everything out of camp, like, "Oh, Deshaun Watson's doing this," and, "Oh, Deshaun Watson's doing that," you weren't hearing a lot of Shedeur.

And then as, as it got closer to the end of OTAs, Monken was like, "Oh," you know, 'cause he said he wanted to make a decision.

Anytime you get a quarterback competition that's like this going into training camp, um, this one just, this one feels different.

I, I think, I think Shedeur Sanders, um, has done a really good job from everything I've been hearing of really growing from year one to year two, right? And I think with this offense, it's really spread out.

They use 11 personnel, which is one back, one tight end, three receivers, a lot.

Is there a knee, if you were gonna have knee surgery, that would be better to have as far as coming back from?

Okay, so we have quarterback competition in Cleveland.

Cleveland.I, I think there is.

Uh, like I would say if you were at OTAs and you were hearing everything out of camp like, "Oh, Deshaun Watson's doing this," and, "Oh, Deshaun Watson's doing that," you weren't hearing a lot of Shedeur.

How's

everything going? It's great.

It's great.

It's really good.

Down here with SEC Nation, just joined on with Tebow and Roman Harper.

And Matt Berry and I are the new guys.

And Paul Feinbaum, of course, is going to be Marty McGee.

Levitt.

trusted to deliver and by e-spaces exceptional office space for every business e-spaces.com for more information and a schedule of conversations like this one visit 1045thezone.com chase daniel joins us now um former nfl quarterback missouri great record holder on a number of categories there at missouri loved watching you play back in the day brother um good to see you man uh how's

everything going It's great.

It's great.

But from the film, the tape, how does his game... work with lanes often

LSU does not play Missouri this year, but Chase Daniel visited with our friend Hunt Palmer from, um, LouisianaSports.net and 104.5 ESPN Baton Rouge, and he gave his take on year one from Lane Kiffin, um, uh, at LSU on-

At the end of the day, the dude is an extremely smart offensive mind.

I, I'm not worried about the offense.

The defense under Blake Baker, Blake was in Missouri and, and finished top 10 in defense.

I mean, he's a great defensive mind, too.

Lane does what he does best.

He goes out and he spends a lot of money in the portal, gets a lot of portal guys, and he's always able to have those guys gel really fast.

Yeah

Do you agree with that?

Yeah, I totally agree with you, Pat, and that's what I said.

Um, as you see here, the SEC Network, we had our first, like, show, SEC Nation, which I'm on, uh, this year.

Super excited to do that.

We're gonna be visiting campuses.

But I think he's the best and most talented returning quarterback in the SEC.

That got a little traction 'cause well, what about Arch Manning? Look, I love what Arch did the last six games of the year, but when you look specifically at Trinidad Chainum's playoff run, six touchdowns, no interceptions in those three games, and threw for over 300 yards, that really put him on the map.

Oh, okay

Have we seen a changing of the guard officially in that division, or would it be premature to write off the Chiefs already?

I mean, I think it's definitely premature to write off the Chiefs, for sure.

Look, the Broncos tied a franchise record 14 wins last year.

They were 14 and 3, and, um, they handled the Chiefs pretty well.

Um, Sean Peyton game planned Andy Reid very well.

They match up very well, all these things.

And, and I just think that, um, you know, the thing about the Broncos is that I think they have one of the best rosters in the entire NFL.

Chase, what about the Rams? Like, when they took Ty Simpson with the 13th pick, what did you think about that pick? And then when you look at the player, what kind of pro career do you expect him to have?

Talk to me, Chase.

I love it so much.

And, and look, uh, you know, speak easy here.

We post- we posted a clip, uh, after the mock draft we did a couple days ago, and I thought that the Cowboys would move up to six to get Caleb Downs.

They didn't have to based on how it was going.

We put this out on 4/20, "The Cowboys are trading up for the best defender in the draft," and sure enough, they trade up one spot to get him.

And I'm with you, Acho.

Um, but hey, Howie Roseman knows more football than me, or supposedly.

Who do you think should start week one for the Raiders, if you know Mendoza's there and Cousins as well?

Yeah, look, I, I'm, I'm going against the grain here a little bit, but I think Fernando Mendoza needs to start from day one.

Uh, look, there's so many quarterbacks that have been drafted in the first round, first overall, and I, I still think that the best way to learn is to gain experience, right? You're not gonna gain experience by practicing.

You're not gonna gain experience in training camp.

You're...

Like, Andy Reid used to tell me all the time, like, "The only way and the only thing I care about is literally how you play in games." Yes, preseason games matter, but when you're looking at this Raiders team, no one really expects them to go to the playoffs, right? So, like, I understand the Kirk Cousins signing.

It's probably the safest quarterback room in all of football, and it's all in Vegas, which is, which is crazy.

Uh-huh
