Shannon Sharpe (0:00)

The Eagles defeat the Commandos 24-22. Dallas Garter looked like a young Shannon Sharpe out there, old big play Garter. Four catchers, 77 yards, two touchdowns. Jalen Hurts, 14 to 25, 2-0-3, three touchdowns.

Jalen Hurts says, hey, all y'all are talking about, I can't throw, right there at you. Boy, hey, he-

Chad Johnson (0:22)

He was winging that thing, and he threw one up the scene one time.

Shannon Sharpe (0:25)

Boy, he fit that thing right up in there for that touchdown. Oh yeah, Dallas got a small part of that guy going on him. Yeah. I almost, man, man, I almost pulled the trigger. I almost started wicks over Devontae Smith. Did you really? I did.

Did I really? I was like, nah, let it ride, let it ride.

Chad Johnson (0:52)

McCoy, McCoy lemon hurt, huh?

Shannon Sharpe (0:55)

I don't know what happened to him, Ocho.

Chad Johnson (0:58)

Chad, McCoy lemon hurt?

Shannon Sharpe (1:02)

Say Quan, I'm gonna give you the advice that I give all my young running backs.

If you plant your feet and you don't go meet that guy in the A-Gap, he gonna sit your ass in the right- Every time, every time. Say Quan, you better close the distance. You have to realize he's coming with a head of steam. You're sitting, you're standing, you're sitting flat-footed. Yeah. Close the distance and don't let him get so much momentum.

Chad, y'all heard me, I tweeted this, I talk about it at nauseam. As somebody that's had to block from the backfield, it's not as easy as you think. But the one thing I learned is that I'm not giving him a two-way go and I'm not going to let him get ahead of steam. I'm going to meet his ass in one of those gaps, the A gap or the B gap.

If you sit there, you take one step and you let him come from distance, he's going to sit your ass in the quarterback's lap. Every time. Hey, hey, Ocho, y'all think we're going to be looking at Jaden Daniels like we do CJ Stroud from his rookie year? Yeah. Yeah, I think he ever going to get back to, yeah, I think Jaden ever going to get back to playing that day. He got to stay healthy. That's it.

Chad Johnson (2:33)

He's another one.

Shannon Sharpe (2:34)

We got to stay healthy.

Chad Johnson (2:35)

He missed, he missed some time last year. It was his shoulder.

Shannon Sharpe (2:41)

I'm just saying. He got to stay healthy. As long as he stay healthy, he can make all the throws. You know, his running ability, his dynamic.

You just got to stay healthy.

Chad Johnson (2:53)

And Joe, this is, remember, this money you're not too, Joe.

Shannon Sharpe (2:55)

I know, that's what I'm saying. I'm saying, you know, when he done his rookie, it was just unbelievable. But now that people, now that teams can game plan for him, you know, he ain't catching nobody by surprise no damn most. Basically what I'm trying to tell you. Nope. You know what I mean? Like, he running for his life out there today, boy. Yeah. For real. I mean, he got them two touchdowns late, but outside of that, Uncle Ocho, I mean, come on, man. I ain't really seen, you know what I mean? Like, I know he just getting back in the flow of things, but I don't know. You know, I kept thinking about that throughout the game when I was watching. I'm like, man, I wonder in a couple years, are we going to be looking at Jayden like CJ? Like, damn, man, I wonder, is he ever going to get back to what he was when he was a rookie? You know what I mean? Yes. If he stays healthy, I think he can get back to that level. He just has to stay healthy. I'm looking at the receiver, Terry McLaurin only had two catches. Stephon Diggs had four for 55, but he had a costly penalty. Yeah. And the same thing, Javontae Williams. Ocho, you losing. Why you taunting?

Yeah. That's what I don't, and see people, oh man, get off. Shannon, you the old man to get off my lawn. I'm just trying to figure out, you losing.

You're not winning. You're losing. And you're going to put your team in harm's way. Now, everybody that says, Shannon get off my lawn, what y'all think when you got that 15 yard penalty and Brandon Aubrey pushed the ball right? Cause now all of a sudden, kicking a little field goal, a PAT, now you're kicking a damn near 50 yard PAT. Yeah.
