00:00But you heard that answer.
00:02It doesn't have to be this way.
00:05Why do we have to do it this way?
00:08In the first unofficial depth chart.
00:10Still not saying, yeah, he's the starting quarterback.
00:14Why do we have to do it this way?
00:18I just wanted this kind of thing to be gone with Rivera.
00:22This like pretend competition that we all have to walk
00:26around and whisper and be like starter Jaden Daniels.
00:30We have to act like he's not the starter.
00:32Even today, when we found out he's going to start
00:35the preseason game, this was the big, the big breaking news.
00:39I'm driving out the Ashburn.
00:40Let's go to Savannah McCann.
00:41Savannah saying Jaden Daniels is starting against the Jets.
00:44When you actually hear what Dan Quinn said,
00:48he is like downplaying that by going
00:51on the unofficial depth chart he's listed first.
00:53But is he going to start?
00:54Yes.
00:55On the unofficial game with the unofficial starter
00:58starting unofficially Jaden Daniels.
01:01Play that clip again.
01:02Like, why does it have to be that way?
01:04Just say our best quarterback that we drafted second,
01:07who played in college for five years
01:09and played 8,000 games.
01:12And it was the best quarterback in the country last year
01:14who won the Heisman trophy,
01:16who is obviously going to start
01:18because he's better than everyone else we have.
01:20And because he's ready and because he was picked second,
01:23even if he stunk, he would start
01:25because we picked him second.
01:26Well, on the unofficial depth chart
01:28and the unofficial game, it doesn't have to be this way.
01:31Is Jaden Daniels QB1 on the first depth chart?
01:34On the first unofficial depth chart, he is.
01:36Will he start Saturday?
01:38First unofficial depth chart, he will.
01:40Now, for my own blood pressure and sanity
01:44and for your eardrums, so I don't just sit here
01:46banging the table for the rest of the show,
01:48I'm going to move on.
01:50Just know, it doesn't have to be this way.
01:56This is the part where he could have come out and said,
01:58Jaden Daniels has been great.
02:00He has performed and checked all the boxes.
02:03He's done everything we've asked.
02:04He's earned the right to be the starter
02:05in the preseason game.
02:07He is performing swimmingly
02:08and we're on a nice pace for him to be the starter
02:10in week one, assuming things continue to track
02:13the way that they have.
02:14Instead, it was this whole game continuing.
02:18Unofficially, unofficial depth chart, unofficial game,
02:20unofficial drive, unofficial series.
02:25Oh, okay.
