Justin Fields is not a viable starting quarterback in the NFL

Until you have [Justin Fields] on your team, you can't fully, in theory, he's got everything. But then you watch him and you're like, okay, there's something. It's just, it's just not there the way it needs to be for a starter in the NFL.

This is a subjective evaluation of a player's career trajectory and skill level.

Josh McDaniels deserves more respect as an offensive coordinator and will eventually get a third shot as a head coach

I think Josh McDaniels, he needs more respect. I've been saying that he's, he is a great offensive coordinator and we definitely, we whiffed on Wednesday's show when we talk about retread head coaches... McDaniels is, he is that guy that got the second shot, he's gonna get another shot.

It is pending whether Josh McDaniels will receive a third head coaching opportunity.

The Commanders defense will be energized and more competitive with Dan Quinn taking over defensive play-calling

I actually liked the Commanders this weekend... Because we've got Dan Quinn taking over defensive play calling. I don't think he's gonna be a difference maker enough to make the defense good, but I don't think they're gonna be historically bad like they've been in the past month. And also, if you have an embarrassing performance overseas, that's when a coach can get fired.

Commanders defense improved from historically bad to middling after Quinn took over play-calling, but still ranked 28th in scoring and 31st in yards for the full season.

Winning a championship feels better than the 'emptiness' Joe Mazzulla describes

Coach Mazzulla in his press conference said something about feeling empty when he won and feeling empty when he lost. ... I'm not a psychiatrist, but winning feels better. It's just my take.

This is a subjective emotional comparison, though most people would agree winning is preferable.

The Mike Vrabel and Diana Russini relationship should be considered a workplace relationship under the NFL umbrella

Is this a workplace relationship? I believe under that [NFL] umbrella. I can't imagine that HR is not involved in this situation.

Technically they have different employers (The Athletic/New York Times vs. New England Patriots), but the 'conflict of interest' is a journalistic standard rather than a standard HR workplace rule.

Saquon Barkley 'fucked' the fantasy team and wasn't clutch

We're never drafting an Eagle ever again. Max. It's over Saquon. Hey Max. Saquon fucked us hard this season. He fucked us real hard. He was our first pick... Championship game. Championship game... He fucked us so hard. Max so hard.

Barkley's performance is a matter of fantasy record, but the assessment of him 'fucking' the team is Jerry's opinion.
