| 0:00.0 | What up, everybody? |
| 0:08.0 | It's Beltway Football. |
| 0:09.1 | J.P. Finley, Mitch Dishler, brought to you by Orsman Automotive of Virginia. |
| 0:13.2 | And Big Man, I've noticed a lot of excitement from fans based on probably ours and lots of other people's coverage of OTAs the other day. |
| 0:22.2 | And the biggest source of excitement, I think, is that Jaden Daniels seems quite comfortable in the new offense. |
| 0:27.8 | He seems like he is fully grasping it and kind of moving at a fast speed in the implementation. |
| 0:36.7 | I think that's good. I think it's also like it's May, so we'll see how |
| 0:42.1 | this thing goes. I think we have to allow like there's a lot more of things to come. You know what I'm |
| 0:47.5 | saying? Yeah. I mean, listen, before this offense can run, it's got to take the baby steps. And |
| 0:53.0 | that's what they're taking now. And I think as, you know, we talked about it in the last pot a little bit, but, you know, we could have gotten out there on the other day and the offense could have looked clunky. They could have, you know, had to break the huddle and come back to it a couple times because they didn't line up correctly or they were off sides, pre-stap penalties, whatever other things were happening. And the fact that it was able to run as smooth as it did, I think shows you that it was a, you know, it's the first step in a long process, but it was a good first step. And I think it shows, you know, both, you know, the aptitude and how hard Jaden works, but also, you know, what David Blow is bringing to the table and how he's teaching the offense, not just to Jaden, but to the entire, that entire side of the ball. And, you know, I think there is, there should be excitement because, you know, as bad as last year was, we can't forget how good Jaden was two years ago. |
| 1:44.7 | And this year is a little bit like, hey, which guy is he? |
| 1:47.4 | Is he more rookie year? |
| 1:48.6 | Is he more 2025? |
| 1:51.1 | Did you see Lewis Riddick's quote tweet from John Kine? |
| 1:56.5 | I did not. |
| 1:57.5 | What do you say? |
| 1:58.4 | So Kime wrote a story about how Jaden's, you know, ready to bounce back after a miserable year last year. |
| 2:05.8 | And Lewis Riddick quote tweeted it and said J.D.5 about to remind the NFL. |
| 2:10.7 | He's a top five quarterback. |
| 2:12.4 | And obviously, you know, it's a national guy of some acclaim that was worked in NFL front offices. |
| 2:18.9 | So I think among the NFL folks, let's be real, they are, they're switching him, |
| 2:27.5 | they're switching to a more quarterback friendly offense. |
