Femi breaks down why the real winner of Cowboys vs Giants might be the Washington Commanders

00:00Like I put me on this Washington commander's train. I'm trying not to overreact. But with
00:06that said, I think Jaden Daniels has the potential to be by the end of the season and maybe already
00:11right now, there'll be the best quarterback in the NFC East. I think the ceiling is that
00:16high. And if you're going to give me the best quarterback in the division and the price
00:20of seven to one, like it's obviously come down quite a bit since they upset the Cincinnati
00:24Bengals.
00:25I'm sure it was probably like 12, 15 to one or something like that last week. But you
00:28know what? Sometimes you miss out on the best prices. I'd rather see it first and
00:31take a worst price and to go ahead and just take a random guess that he might be good.
00:35But what we saw this past Monday, you've said it like it's one of the better quarterback
00:39performances that you'll ever see, not by a rookie, but by any quarterback. And I do
00:44think back to it. It doesn't have to work out this way. It's not exactly apples to apples,
00:48but I do think back to how we all felt this time last year with the Houston Texans and
00:53CJ Stroud to where Stroud just comes off the massive game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
00:58They knocked them off and everyone's like, okay, well, it's great for CJ Stroud. He's
01:01now the offensive rookie of the year favorite, but that's probably where this story ends.
01:04That wasn't where the story ended. Stroud ended up leading that team to winning the
01:08division. Now the division was also weak, but I also think that the NFC East is kind
01:11of a weak division. I don't, I'm not really impressed with Philadelphia. That's kind of
01:15been my sort of stance heading into this season. I thought Dallas was flawed. I thought Philadelphia
01:20was flawed and I just didn't know what to think of the giants or the commanders.
01:24But now with the commanders having a quarterback that's shows the ability to reach that kind
01:29of a level, I think that they could take advantage or at least make it interesting in the division
01:33to where at seven to one, I think that we could be sitting there week 14, week 15. Maybe
01:38there's only a game that separates the commanders and the Eagles because Philadelphia, I don't
01:41even like them this week. I think they're gonna actually lose to Tampa Bay spoiler alert
01:45for when we do our pick segment there. I think they're going to lose that game. And if they
01:48fall to two and two, Washington is sitting there at two and one, let's see what happens
01:51there. I do kind of agree with you for this week, at least with Washington. I think you're
01:55kind of leading that Arizona side. That's the side that I lead in this game. But if
01:58both teams are at two and two, then we're sitting here with, I'm holding plus 700 and
02:02the team is tied for first place in the division. So like, I think that Washington just because
02:06of Jaden Daniels, and I hear what you're saying about the defense, it is atrocious, but Dan
02:10Quinn being a defensive coach, I think he can just get enough out of those guys to where
02:15get the vibes going. They liked Dan, Dan Quinn, like he just seems to be one of those coaches
02:19that kind of gets guys to overachieve. If he gets enough out of that defense, this offense
02:24has the potential to be maybe the best unit in the division, at least having the best
02:28quarterback in the division with Jaden Daniels. So at seven to one, I bet it this morning.
02:33Give me the Washington commanders. I'm not saying they're going to win the division.
02:36I just think at the price, it's a bet that I had to make just given the upside of the
02:40quarterback.
