00:00All right. It's a quarterback question here. There's a couple of bangers today, man. Sam

00:03Darnold, Seattle against Arizona, or Jordan Love, Green Bay against Philadelphia. I'm leaning

00:08in love, but let's hear from you. I'm going to lean with Sam Darnold, if you can believe it.

00:13I just think that Philly Green Bay game, it feels like it might get gross. It might be one of these

00:17games where it's just very tight. And I know last time we've seen these teams match up in the

00:24playoffs, right? It wasn't necessarily the prettiest thing. So I just think this time

00:28around that defense has played so much better. Micah Parsons being there is a difference maker

00:32too. I know the Eagles are coming off a buy. I get it. It's a good situation here, but I'm going to

00:37take Sam Darnold at home, who's been so consistent. He's QB 13 on the season, and I think most people

00:44wouldn't realize that. And I think he deserves a little bit more credit, how steady he's been

00:49every single week. I know he had one bad game against the Houston Texans, but coming out of

00:53the buy, he then put up 28 points against the Washington Commanders, against Arizona, and a

00:58big, important game. I do think you're going to get another good game out of Sam Darnold and

01:02Shahid being a guy that can take that top off a defense. That's a new wrinkle here that they

01:07really haven't had. So again, just like Jacoby Myers, I can't expect Rashid Shahid to just come

01:12in guns a blazing into this offense a couple of days in, but there are a few moments where,

01:16you know, you can run that goal route. You can find that opportunity. Shahid could do that. So

01:20I think an interesting scenario there for him. It's not that Jordan Love isn't startable.

01:24I think I would just take Sam Darnold over him, which is kind of crazy. I know for a lot of people

01:28to think that, but I have a bad feeling about that Green Bay Philly game that it might underwhelm

01:32a little bit in terms of total. Yeah. Speaking of underwhelming from my Jordan Love kick, let's go

01:38now to one of his potential receivers against a New York giant that may not be on the tip of

01:43everyone's tongue. So Christian Watson is wide receiver 40. He'll give an update on that. Or is it

01:49Theo Johnson tight end 12 for the New York giants? Start sit. Where do I go here?

01:54Yeah, I think Theo Johnson is going to be leaned on very heavily in this game against the Chicago

01:59bear. So I'll take Theo Johnson and Christian Watson is that big play guy, right? But if we

02:02don't get that big play, we're kind of on the outside looking in now he's had that since he

02:07came back, which is great. But of course on the Q tag next to Christian Watson today, and that's

02:10kind of always been the scenario with him, right? How healthy is he? He's never healthy.

02:14Theo Johnson, I think is that safety blanket for the young quarterback and Jackson darts

02:18played really good football. I think when you look at what Jackson dart has been able to do,

02:21especially without having Malik neighbors and not having cam scatter boo, I think it's safe to say

02:25the giants have found their quarterback of the future. Now, the problem is who's the coach of

02:30the future for the New York giants? Cause it doesn't sound like it's Brian Dayball. So some reports came

02:34out this week that it looks like, you know, after that Denver loss that they wanted to fire him on the

02:39plane basically. And then I guess cooler heads prevailed, but it does seem like the GM is going to keep

02:44his gig. And it does seem at some point, they're going to be looking for a new head coach. That's

02:48going to be an interesting scenario, Matt. I'm going to put this to you. I think if you're a head coach

02:53looking for a job, right? You look at the New York giant situation, you have Jackson cart, you have

02:58cam scatter boo Malik neighbors, right? And you're in New York with a really good ownership. I think

03:04that's a really appealing situation to be walking into. Would you agree? Absolutely. And if I'm a head

03:09coach and I'm making NFL money, I'm going to want to win. And the market is really what's going to

03:14matter. So yeah, nail on the head, man, that is an absolute cake. It might be a lot harder though,

03:21but I don't know anyone that does coaching and teach whatever that ever doubts themselves. I think

03:27everyone says I could go in there and do it. Look, we do the fantasy thing for a living. I could do

03:31that. We hear it all the time. People would have gusto and yeah, it's an exciting, it's an exciting

03:37place, I think. And for Giants fans, they should be happy, Joe.
