| 0:00.0 | this is not a slight of Patrick Mahomes. Patrick Mahomes is unbelievable. What he's accomplished |
| 0:03.7 | in his career so far, I mean you guys know I don't have to say it. Mahomes is on track |
| 0:07.8 | to down one of the best quarterbacks of all time. He's amazing, right? But if you look at what hurts |
| 0:12.4 | is done in his first two years and you compare it to what Mahomes has done, what Mahomes did in his |
| 0:17.0 | first two years, they're comparable if hurts wins on Sunday, right? Now if you look at their games, |
| 0:22.7 | both can lead an elite passing offense. We've seen that this year, right? Mahomes is a better |
| 0:26.7 | passer than hurts. There's no question about that. But Jalen is a far better runner than what |
| 0:31.2 | Mahomes has been. Just the numbers prove that. I know he runs it more, but he is a better runner |
| 0:35.5 | than Mahomes is. So if I'm starting a team and I'm building a quarterback from clay, there are |
| 0:39.9 | a ton of qualities in Mahomes that are elite and you would like those qualities. But I think today's |
| 0:44.5 | NFL, if you look at what really hurts opposing defensive and where the league is trending, it is |
| 0:49.6 | trending towards quarterbacks that can be both a legit threat running the ball and throwing the ball. |
| 0:54.5 | And in my opinion, hurts is a far bigger threat running the ball. And for that reason, |
| 1:00.2 | if I was just picking skill sets and what hurts is done in the first two years, I think there's a |
| 1:05.0 | very strong argument for it to be him. And I do believe that that is the quarterback I would take. |
| 1:09.9 | But just listen into the clip yesterday and that's why we're happy to have you on here. You didn't |
| 1:13.7 | really seem to have much of a comeback to whenever the co-host said, well, one quarterback is better. |
| 1:18.8 | Like it's undeniable to me which one of these two is the better player. And if you were starting |
| 1:24.0 | a team from scratch, let's say that you were the general manager of a new football league and you |
| 1:28.1 | had to pick, I don't think there's a human being alive. That would pick Jalen Herzl over Patrick |
| 1:32.1 | Wilhelm's. I agree with you right now, right now in Mahomes with the end of 50 year, right? In his |
| 1:38.0 | 50 year, he is a better player than Jalen Herzl. I'm not disputing that. What I'm saying is when you |
