This is the best of two pros in a couple of Joe with Lamar Erington and Brady Quinn and Jonas Knies on Fox 4th Radio.

Yesterday in the final hour of the program, we talked about it's just like a little hypothetical, you know, a little hypothetical.

Hey, what if, you know, if a team wanted to make a move in the NFL, they wanted to go in a different direction.

What if, you know, like, for example, what if the Raiders decided, you know what, we've had enough of this whole derrickar experience.

And maybe we could save some money if we keep them healthy towards the end of the season.

And we don't have to, you know, guarantee is $40 million or whatever it is because of an injury.

And then, you know, if we could, we'd take a little like $5.6 million cap hit if we end up dealing him, but he's got to pass a physical.

Simply just a what if scenario, what's the plan to finish out the season because Joshua Daniels is a little critical about the passing game, following the Christmas Eve disaster at acupuncture stadium in Pittsburgh, in which derrickar through three

interceptions, just simple hypothetical question, just a what if that a few hours later, Joshua Daniel stepped up to the podium and he had this to say had a good conversation with the quarterbacks this morning. We're going to go ahead and and start Jarrett on the last couple games of the season here.

None of us is happy with where we're at, but we think it's an opportunity to, you know, evaluate a younger player who hasn't had much time to play in a derrick, who was great.

You know, he understands the scenario that we're in and the situation and very supportive of the two young guys that those three guys of us have worked together hand in hand all year and you know, he'll do anything he can to help him.

Well, I mean, where do you start?

He got to follow what you said yesterday though, right? Like he said that we said it when the conversation point came up with high and key and wins.

And it's like, why do you even bring it up? And then boom, Josh McDaniels brings up the quarterback situation is like, okay, why even bring it up?

And even though it didn't seem believable, you know, foreseeable, maybe perceivable.

He brought it up and his press conference and so we should have just followed what the standard protocol of we're going to bench our starting quarterback now and that seems to be how it all played out.

Let me lay this out for you guys first off, I was dead wrong because look, Josh McDaniels straighter for me back when he was in Denver and I always felt like we're gross of the circumstances. He was always trying to be competitive.

This is not that move to be competitive. This is a business move in two ways. It's a business move to eliminate any potential chance.

They've got to pay the 40.4 million dollars that would be owed to Derek Car. If he couldn't pass a physical, I believe it's three or four days after the Super Bowl.

Okay. So that's what's stated within his contract. So it has everything to do with that very similar to why Matt Ryan's not planning inapolis, even though he's had a bad year.

He still gives them a better chance than the alternatives there, but it's all about not having to pay him a huge sum of money if he can't pass a physical. So that's what this is about.

And they obviously can move on from him after the season, whether it's releasing him or potentially trading him and we can get to that later.
