I think they're built for it, the way that Cliff Kingsbury runs his offense, getting it out quick, making sure that some of your shot plays are the plays you're going to hold on to the ball a little bit longer, happening later in drives. I think that's part of it. So getting them gassed a little bit, making sure that you're getting your first downs and extending your drives.
And then maybe on the sixth play of the drive, okay, Jalen Carter just had four pass rushes in the last five plays. Maybe this is one we can hold on to it longer. Those things, they have to go in your head. And then protection schemes are the same thing. But Philly's really good up front. So it's not just one guy.
That's going to be the guy, obviously, they're going to circle and say we need to know where he is on every play. but big loss for the commanders. But the other equalizers, just Daniel's in the way he moves, man. He's so cool and calm back there. Escaping the pocket is obviously one of the best things that he does.
And then when he escapes up inside, taking off and going, you know, I decided we had that Thursday night game, but to look more at the last game that they played they, I think Jane Daniels was a little injured kind of in the middle of the season. I don't know if it was a rib or something, but it just looked like something was going on.
So that last game, I just watched it again this morning from week 16 was unbelievable. Obviously five touchdown passes, but he ran for 81 yards as well. That's going to be a huge factor in the game. And then just confused at why the Eagles didn't run the ball more in the second half. It was kind of a weird game plan after Jalen Hurts went down. But...
The Commanders are going to have to score a bunch of points to win this game, but the great thing about that is they're explosive, and they can, and they've showed it, and they've scored 40 points a bunch of times this year. They just did it versus Detroit.
Yeah, I mean, you get in trouble for making quarterback there. I do all the time, especially now that I'm new to Twitter. Oh, my God, the Eagles fans hate me.
Yeah, I think I said he's a top 8, but not a top 5. He's not on the Mount Rushmore at the top 4. Yeah. But it's also like then there's restraint of I'm not going to do a victory lap. I'm not rooting against the guy. And I hate that he had the playoff game that he had and they lost. But But with Jalen Hurts, I go back to the game in the Super Bowl versus the Chiefs.
He had one fumble, but other than that, he was lights out that whole game. On the biggest stage, he was unbelievable. I think they have struggled a little bit in the rhythm passing game. I think when he has to throw the ball over the middle and not to the outsides, that's where he struggles a little bit more. But he's an elite go ball thrower. He's got a great deep ball.
They've obviously got two guys that can go and get it. But the addition of Saquon, it just plays into the strengths of what he is as well. Jalen Hurts is an elite runner. Yeah. You know, we'll see what happens with his knee and how healthy he is when he comes out. But Jalen Hurts is the perfect quarterback for that system, for the system they're in.
But there's guys, there's quarterbacks, and I think we all know who they are. We have our top four with Burrow, Allen, Mahomes, and Lamar. Jane Daniels is now in this conversation of you can pick them up and drop them in any situation in the NFL, and they're going to be elite.
And then there's other guys that you could sprinkle around and put them in the right systems. And I think two is like that. I think Brock's like that. I think Jalen's probably like that, where if you get them in the right spot, then they can be as good as anybody. But you can't necessarily pick them up and drop them in any situation and have them be elite.
one yeah that's all i don't know how many people i don't know how many people have made this comparison and i'll just dig myself a deeper hole but what do you think about the jalen hurts and russell wilson like a young russell wilson oh yeah i don't hate that russell wilson was good or he was great he's still like they're elite goalball throwers yeah great down the field they're also both very good runners especially young russ and they win yeah i mean i i
I don't know that it's possible. I think you do go into this game saying, all right, the main focus is going to be on Saquon, but that means you're going to have one-on-ones on the outside. And like I just said, he's an elite goalball thrower. So with Devontae Smith, And A.J. Brown on the outside, it makes it difficult. So it's a pick your poison type thing.
But I would go into the game saying that. I mean, you have to stop Saquon. That being said, you know, the other way you combat that is you possess the ball. And when you have fourth and six or less, you go for it on offense, which is the formula that Washington has pretty much used all year and being really aggressive on fourth down. And then they've got to light up the scoreboard.
They know going into this game, this isn't going to be the same game that the Buffalo-Kansas City game is. That game is going to be 24-23, 27-22, whatever it's going to be. This one, in order for Washington to win the game, they've got to score 30-plus points and maybe 40 to win this game.
into the NFL my last few years, and I didn't like it at all. I think maybe it's just what he's grown up with. But yeah, it's obviously working, and maybe I should have done it more. But he also has that thing where if he doesn't like what he sees, he just takes off and runs, and nobody can catch him. which is really effective too.
Yeah. But he, between, between the way that he throws the deep ball and the way that he processes, there's one play in particular in that last game, it's cover zero. He's got two guys free coming at him and every quarterback in the league, you're taking the flat route. You're throwing it at your hot throw. You've got an unblock guy. He just takes two more steps back. the hot throw is covered.
And then he finds Zach Ertz on a seven route to the outside. He throws it three steps before Ertz is out of his break, right in stride. And it's like, what planet is this guy from, you know, between the athleticism, his ability to throw it accurately and now his ability to process and, The calmness, the poise under pressure, it's unbelievable and something we haven't seen recently.
Yeah, so it's the first time I got something stuck in a hole that I couldn't get it out. And my brother lives next door. So his son is becoming a shot putter. And so his little shit five-year-old son brought the shot put ball over to our backyard and thought it'd be fun to get it in the hole. It literally was the perfect size.
