00:00I'll say this is reasonable to not anoint him a Hall of Famer. It is reasonable. And I brought
00:05this up last week. I'm not asking him to anoint him as a Hall of Famer. I said I'm over my skis.
00:10Is that a couple seasons ago, everybody was talking about Jalen Hurts being one of the
00:15best quarterbacks in the NFL. And everybody was talking about Jalen Hurts being the best
00:20quarterback in the NFC. And there's peaks and valleys. It's not to say he's not a good
00:26quarterback. But really, you got to give it a couple years to kind of assess. He will be the
00:32start of quarterback for this team for a long time. And you'll see if he's always at the top
00:40of the class or he slides down like and in the NFC, you know, and bring up the playoff picture
00:47and where you kind of stack the commanders. But take a quarterback like Jordan Love.
00:52Jordan Love's very good. Like, there's the NFC went from not really having good quarterbacks
00:56to now having a bunch of guys who are good with her cousins, Baker Mayfield, Jordan Love,
01:04the young guys like Jaden Daniels, Caleb Williams, possibly into the equation, Brock Purdy,
01:10Dak Prescott, Jared Goff. Yeah, I mean, I don't think that. I mean, clearly he's playing better
01:19than every single person on the planet, maybe besides Jaden thought he would. But there is a
01:24possibility to top out. Doesn't mean he's going to get better and better, better. I'm not saying
01:29he can't. I'm just saying this chance he tops out at some point. I'm going to say that I'm
01:34going to catch up with it. And then. But again, they're going to improve the roster. And I'm going
01:38to bet he's not going to talk. I don't think he's come close. I don't think he's scratched the
01:42surface. I'm not saying he will. I'm saying that that is a possibility. That's why I'm not willing
01:46to go as far as to say he's going to be a superstar. He's going to Hall of Fame. I don't
01:48expect you to say he's a superstar going to Hall of Fame. Only a guy like me has that. But you're
01:53not the only one, but they found their guy. There's no doubt they found their guy. None
01:57whatsoever. Yeah. Yeah. They hit on their guy. The guy that we can win with. Yes. Not just a guy
02:04like a Daniel Jones placeholder. They found their guy that they build around them and the stars
02:10aligned. Things work out right. They can win it all with him. They can win it all them. It's like
02:14the Ravens can win it all with Lamar. I don't care if he's done it or not. Just like, you know,
02:18the chiefs have proven they can do it with doesn't matter. We can win it all with this guy.
