00:00J.J. McCarthy needs to be the starting quarterback against the Texans.
00:04I don't know how John Harbaugh can justify and actually outwardly say,
00:11hey, we're starting Jameis Winston, and here are the reasons.
00:15Because if they don't start J.J. McCarthy, the only reason you don't do it
00:20is because the Texan defense, at least reputation-wise,
00:25because they haven't been great this year,
00:26but they certainly have the capability of wreaking havoc
00:30and being one of the best defensive teams in the NFL.
00:34And the idea of, hey, we don't want to throw McCarthy to the Wolves
00:38and he has a bad performance, and then what do we do from there?
00:41And we'd rather Winston maybe take one on the chin.
00:44But you know what? Harbaugh can't say that.
00:46Like, you can't outwardly say that to the media.
00:48So if they stick with Winston, it'll be interesting to see
00:51how Harbaugh spins it and puts it in a nice way.
00:56That being said, you have to play McCarthy.
00:59Like, we all know what Jameis Winston is.
01:01We all know the Jameis Winston experience.
01:04He's a backup quarterback at this stage of his career.
01:06And I'm sure Jameis Winston wants to be a backup at this stage of his career.
01:09McCarthy's interesting because we don't know the ceiling.
01:12Yeah, it didn't work out in Minnesota,
01:15but maybe that was just a shotgun marriage and it was never going to work out.
01:20McCarthy is intriguing because nobody truly knows what his ceiling is.
01:25He could end up being great.
01:28Look, the Vikings gave up on Sam Donald.
01:30Sam Donald won a Super Bowl.
01:31Now, I'm not saying J.J. McCarthy's winning a Super Bowl with the Giants,
01:33but I think he deserves an opportunity here.
01:37I'm not saying Jameis Winston, but I'm not saying Jameis Winston, but I'm not saying Jameis Winston, but I'm not
01:37saying Jameis Winston, but I'm not saying Jameis Winston, but I'm not saying Jameis Winston, but I'm not saying Jameis
