00:00Okay, so yeah, Milliston, a good threatening running back, I think, can impact good quarterback

00:08play.

00:09Let's continue that conversation and talk about the Christian McCaffrey's return.

00:12We talked about how it would impact guys like George Kittle and a few others.

00:14Let's talk about how it impacts Brock Purdy here.

00:16What do you expect to see from Brock Purdy?

00:18The number set is 260 and a half yards through the air, passing yards.

00:21What do you think about Brock Purdy today?

00:24I think it's another one that is really generous.

00:26I think you're going to go over this handily.

00:29It's a great matchup here.

00:30Tampa has just been terrible giving up passing yards all over the place.

00:34And then you get Christian McCaffrey back and the Christian McCaffrey situation allows

00:37you to pad those stats.

00:39So sure, you're going to hand the ball off to him just as much as you were handing off

00:42to Jordan Mason.

00:43So I don't think that's going to change a whole lot.

00:45And you know, Baker Mayfield is not going to quit like that's just something that Baker

00:49Mayfield doesn't have.

00:50He's going to keep, you know, even if it's to his detriment, he's going to go out there

00:53and still try to make plays and figure out things.

00:56And unfortunately, that's how Chris Godwin got hurt a couple of weeks ago.

00:59But the same thing is going to be true here.

01:01So no quitting Baker Mayfield.

01:03That's a good thing for this 260 and a half.

01:05We're going to go over this again.

01:06I think a big day from George Kittle.

01:07You've got the full complement of weapons now for them, save Brandon Aiyuk for the first

01:12time in 10 weeks.

01:14So coming off that bye, I think confidence, I think a good situation, good matchup.

01:18Give me the over for Brock Purdy.

01:20All right.

01:21And let's finish it out with the time that we have remaining.

01:23Washington has a tough defense in front of them.

01:27What does that mean for quarterback mobility?

01:28Let's look at Jaden Daniels, 44 and a half rushing yards.

01:31Those pockets break down those plays break.

01:33He could find this joke.

01:35He could.

01:36Don't look for the attempts, though.

01:37Look for the over on the yardage instead.

01:40And the reason being, obviously, that pass rush, right?

01:43When T.J.

01:44Watt is running after you, you've got to escape that pocket and get out there.

01:46And there could be a couple of big runs in here, potentially.

01:48You could also see some garbage time runs, too.

01:51You could see them sitting back and prevent at certain times, and maybe Jaden Daniels

01:55late in this game, picking up some big runs for some big first downs that would pad these

01:59numbers quite a bit.

02:00So 44 and a half, really good number.

02:03So this is a great test, too.

02:04I mean, this is a game that has my focus.

02:06You got the Steelers coming off a bye.

02:08You've got Jaden Daniels of enlighten the world on fire.

02:10Some really fun matchups today, too.

02:12So are we keeping a close eye on that one here?

02:15We return.
