00:00What does that mean for Jamar Chase here, 81 and a half is the number.

00:06Is it finally time?

00:08Yes, it's definitely time.

00:12It's definitely time against the Washington Commanders.

00:14I think this is the beginning for Jamar Chase to have a massive season.

00:19And I think September will be a distant memory like it is every year.

00:23Every year, the Bengals stink in September.

00:25I don't know when we're going to learn.

00:27I mean, I remember Marc Pichera back in the day for the Yankees, right?

00:34He would be the worst April player ever.

00:36And every May 1st, you buy him and he was good the rest of the year.

00:38It was like the Bengals, the Philadelphia Phillies up until this season, right?

00:42Oh, a team that always struggled to being a struggle to being.

00:44And then they turn it on.

00:45Like, that's just who the Bengals are.

00:47But this matchup against that secondary Washington is so good.

00:50I know 81 and a half is a big number.

00:52I think this could be one of those big two touchdown, one 10 games for Jamar Chase.

00:56I see that coming here.

00:57All right.

00:58Speaking of two touchdowns, let's pivot to a quarterback now here.

01:01Baker Mayfield, one and a half past touchdowns here.

01:05So what do we think about Baker today?

01:07Look, man, I know this sounds hot takey, but the first two weeks of the season, Baker Mayfield,

01:13I think we'll get my MVP vote.

01:16He has been so good.

01:17He went into Detroit, pulled out a big victory there.

01:21He has been the leader.

01:23He has been the guy.

01:25He is making everybody useful as a good matchup here against Denver.

01:30Denver is an offense that is just awful.

01:32Bo Nix can't, and going back to that conversation we were having about the rookie quarterbacks,

01:36right?

01:37He's another guy.

01:38Should Bo Nix be starting in week one?

01:40No, he should be sitting, watching, learning, getting to a point where he's comfortable

01:45in practices over six months.

01:47And then next year, maybe starting.

01:50But we keep throwing these guys to the wolves and the wolves keep getting fed.

01:55This is a great opportunity here where Bo Nix is going to give Baker Mayfield's offense

02:00opportunities, short fields.

02:02And Baker knows what to do with them.

02:04Baker's mobile, Baker's making plays, and he seems really beloved by his teammates.

02:09And that is something that I feel like the maturity of Baker Mayfield and another guy

02:14too, who we could probably say that same thing about, which is these young quarterbacks,

02:19where they land is everything.

02:21He landed in a bad spot in Cleveland.

02:23It was never going to get any better.

02:25He bounced to Carolina, he bounced to the Rams, he ended up in Tampa with the right

02:30situation.

02:31And guess what?

02:32All of a sudden now, this is the team that won that division last year, beat the Eagles

02:36in the playoffs, and still nobody gives them respect.

02:39And I think Baker Mayfield lives for that.

02:42So give me Baker over one and a half touchdowns today.
