00:02 - Let's ghost pepper it for Ladd McConkie,
00:05 who's gonna have a hundred receptions in his rookie season.
00:08 Now people will say,
00:09 well, Greg Rollman is the offensive coordinator
00:12 and he was in Baltimore and Jim Harbaugh is the coach
00:15 and he wants to run the football.
00:17 That's exactly how they say it.
00:19 And here's the thing, all that's true,
00:22 but you also have Justin Herbert.
00:23 So just because Greg Rollman ran the football a lot
00:26 with Lamar Jackson,
00:27 doesn't mean he's gonna run it the same amount
00:29 with Justin Herbert.
00:30 Justin Herbert is a better passer in this league already,
00:33 he's established himself, than Lamar Jackson is.
00:36 It's not a knock on Lamar, it's just a fact.
00:38 So you're going to utilize it.
00:39 Harbaugh came back to the NFL
00:41 because he had the franchise quarterback.
00:43 They're gonna use him.
00:44 Josh Palmer's just a guy,
00:45 Quentin Johnson is an enigma we have to unwrap
00:47 and figure out what he is.
00:49 Maybe there's a better version of it this year.
00:50 Certainly Harbaugh remembers a version of it
00:52 that beat him in the college playoffs a couple of years ago.
00:55 So maybe he can get the best out of him.
00:56 But in the meantime, Ladd McConkie comes here from Georgia.
00:59 Ladd McConkie is playing in the slot already with the ones.
01:02 He is, if you ask me who's going to be the next Pukanukuwa,
01:06 it's Ladd McConkie.
01:07 Ladd McConkie is that guy
01:08 that can come out of nowhere this year
01:09 and have a hundred receptions.
01:11 And I think that's not a hot take like other people do,
01:14 but people think it's spicy
01:15 because of the history of Harbaugh and Roman
01:18 and that kind of,
01:19 we're just gonna run the football
01:20 and run the football some more, guess what?
01:22 You gotta throw at some point in time.
01:23 This is the NFL in 2024
01:25 and Ladd McConkie is gonna be that dude.
01:27 That's what I think.
