Welcome to Inside the Huddle, our final edition of the week from San Francisco,

0:14.4

before Super Bowl 60, of course, the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks, still with Phoebe Shetor,

0:19.6

and we found an old friend.

0:27.6

Pro Bowl, good to see you, Kirk Cousins, Pro Bowl quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons. It's always quite a week, isn't it? Looking forward to the Super Bowl.

0:30.6

It is a lot of events. It's such a cultural event here, stateside.

0:34.6

It should be a national holiday. They haven't done that yet, but most of us watching the

0:39.2

game wish there was no work on Monday morning. Right. Let's talk about the quarterbacks in this

0:43.8

game because I feel like this is the perfect time. We've left it all week, hoping that we were

0:47.5

going to catch up with you. Of course, I want to start with Sam Donald. Fifth team, he's only 28 years

0:53.0

of age. Cast on that scrap heap a few times. Talk about

0:56.8

that part of it, because there's a roller coaster ride for players like yourself, like Sam Donald at

1:01.6

times that you have to ride out. Yeah, he was drafted near the very top of the draft, considered to be

1:05.9

one of the future star quarterbacks in the league, and it just didn't work out in New York with the Jets.

1:10.5

Really no fault of his own. He goes to Carolina and then ends up being a backup in San

1:16.1

Francisco where he got to see what it really should look like with a team that went to the Super

1:20.4

Bowl. He was backing up Brock Purdy. What a valuable experience for him to see that offense

1:24.6

and see what it should look like. And then he goes to Minnesota, plays at at a very high level is deserving of his opportunity now in seattle and then has proved them right taking them all the way to the super bowl but sam's a talented player he was a high pick for a reason does a great job with his arm with his legs and at only 28 years old there's a lot of good football ahead of him yeah phoebe you keep you keep this one. Okay, well, you keep that and just we'll kind of go like that with Kirk. I wanted to know, I mean, as someone that's been a part of a multitude of offenses, how hard is it to learn a brand new offense under a new leadership? It is challenging. You want continuity. Unfortunately, in our league today, I mean, 10 head coaches were just let go at the end of this season. So there's a lot of change and that's hard. But I do think your best chance as a quarterback is to not only get with good coaches, but to stay with good coaches and to have that consistency where you can build a rapport. So I think that's going to help Drake May in the future because he's going to have the same play caller and the same head coach it looks like for a long time.

2:20.6

Sam's been very aggressive. Both these quarterbacks have. We'll talk about Drake May in a second in terms of attacking downfield.

2:27.5

He's not playing with house money because he could be playing for another 10 years.

2:30.4

But do you feel like he's just a situation helps him growing confidence and then he has

2:35.0

taken a really attacking mindset? He is an attacker. There's no doubt. He's turned the ball over at
