"Stugat said people aren't giving Jalen Hurts credit and I think that just watching the wrong TV shows because the shows I watch, they're giving them tons of credit."

Stugotz expresses unfamiliarity with the positive coverage JuJu references, prompting him to seek recommendations for shows that support Hurts' prowess.

Stugotz [01:44]:

"I am unaware of this and perhaps it's a blind spot by me. Give me some shows. I need to start watching juju."

The conversation evolves as Dan and the team weigh Hurts against other quarterbacks like Brock Purdy and Patrick Mahomes. They discuss the balance between a quarterback's individual talent and the support from their team.

Dan Le Batard [03:04]:

"I do think, though, that one of the things that's happening here is that the analysis of the quarterback position has gotten so carried away that there are many people who would say, well, you know what he is? He's Brock Purdy, or some form of Brock Purdy."

The group ultimately agrees that Hurts deserves more recognition, debating terms like "solid," "very good," and even "elite" to describe his performance.

Greg Cody [03:52]:

[Dan Le Batard]

I thought there was a lot of good stuff in today's show. Roy is rarely going to have a mispronunciation that's going to help us more than that one juju. Thank you for being here today. We'll get to the polls with juju. People are very happy that the polls are back and the updates on the polls are back. Start with whatever it is today in the subject matter that sent your way on all the stuff that we were talking about in sports. I would imagine. I imagine Jalen hurts was a topic that will catch fire somewhere where they aggregate stugat stuff. What did you make of the Jalen hurts talk?

[Juju Gotti]

Yeah, Stugat said people aren't giving Jalen hurts credit and I think that just watching the wrong TV shows because the shows I watch, they're giving them tons of credit. So I think it is time to, you know what I mean, maybe give some new shows a try. Stu, guys, you know, Greeny, we love Greeny but you know, it's just a lot of new and up and comers out there who are giving jail and Jalen Hurts a lot of credit.

[Stugotz]

All right, I am unaware of this and perhaps it's a blind spot by me. Give me some shows. I need to start watching juju.

[Juju Gotti]

Shoot. I mean, this show. But how about we just start off by giving him credit and then we can just watch it back later on. You did me, dude.

[Stugotz]

That's what I'm trying to do. I just don't feel like up people are. That's all I'm saying. That's it.

[Dan Le Batard]

Well, but he's saying juju's saying that we could do better.

[Stugotz]

All right. Well, I did. I mean, what are you doing? Huh?

[Dan Le Batard]

I'm only discrediting him at every turn. It's my fault. The problem is right in the mirror.

[Chris Cody]

I mean, he's clearly not like Trent Dilfer. Like, he's not in that conversation. Yes, he's not. He might not be Patrick Mahomes. Can't we just agree he's fine? He's good enough for this team. Really, really good.

[Stugotz]

Now, that's the problem, is that he's fine. That the defense won him a title. That the offensive line won him a tit.

[Dan Le Batard]

No.

[Stugotz]

Jaylen Herz won the Eagles a title.

[Chris Cody]

No, I'm arguing on his behalf, like, yes, he's not Mahomes, but he's not even close to, like, in that conversation of what's he carried there.

[Tony]

Better than fine, though. Fine gives you a connotation of, like, he's okay. Jalen hurts.

[Chris Cody]

How about solid?

[Tony]

Very, very good.

[Stugotz]

Solid.

[Greg Cody]

Solid.

[Tony]

Solid's not good enough either. Very, very good.

[Dan Le Batard]

Elite.

[Venmo Advertiser]

He's elite.

[Dan Le Batard]

See, now you're crazy. Too much.

[Tony]

I. I do need to redo my Tony's QB tears. Postseason. Now we did a preseason. Now we're doing postseason.

[Dan Le Batard]

Wow.

[Tony]

Jalen Hurts. Maybe climb up the ranks.

[Dan Le Batard]

I do think, though, that one of the things that's happening here is that the analysis of the quarterback position has gotten so carried away that there are many people who would say, well, you know what he is? He's Brock Purdy, or some form of Brock Purdy. Because he's got help. Because. Because you're giving so much credit to the help that he has.

[Stugotz]

No, but the help he had two years ago when they almost beat the Kansas City Chiefs was Miles Sanders. I mean, that was help. Who went to Carolina and is nothing now.

[Dan Le Batard]

Okay, I don't know how much better you guys are going to make Jalen Hurts then Brock Purdy. But I don't mean that as an insult of Brock Purdy. He had MVP, like, numbers for a while. Like, there are a lot of places where we're willing to not give credit to the quarterback because how much credit we're giving to systems and complimentary players these days. Solid.

[Greg Cody]

Not enough. Elite. Probably too much.

[Dan Le Batard]

How about a Kirk?

[Greg Cody]

Really good. We like that.

[Chris Cody]

You let me do that. Thank you.

[Dan Le Batard]

Is Purdy really good? Is Purdy really good?

[Tony]

Purdy's good enough.

[Chris Cody]

Everyone stop doing fake Kirk my lane.

[Stugotz]

Yeah.

[Chris Cody]

All right. I'm getting really mad.

[Greg Cody]

Oh, God, that is good.

[Juju Gotti]

Also, Jalen Hurts was clearly hungover at Disney World. You feel me? Like, get it going to Disney World right after you win the Super Bowl. It might be a bit challenging. And I. I challenged the reporter to ask better questions from a guy who's hungover after the Super Bowl. You feel me?

[Chris Cody]

I don't actually criticize Hertz for that. I Just found it hilarious because I got this, like, eager social media person, and they're like, oh, I got my 10 seconds with them. All right, I'm interview him. And he just like, I don't know nothing.

[Greg Cody]

Never seen someone who looks more like they just need to go to sleep.

[Dan Le Batard]

12 hours. Thank you for making that point. It somehow eluded us as a show to make that point. That's exactly what happened there. That guy has not slept, has been partying, and the last thing he needs to do is think. Like, give me questions that don't require me to think. Just. It would have been better if he had just said, jalen, can you just say all the cliches you usually do? Can you just say how important it is to be a part of a team? Like, don't make him think the man is tired.

[Tony]

Thank you to the offensive line.

[Chris Cody]

I mean, the question was how many unread texts. It's not like a deep. Like, you know, the guys, at least.

[Stugotz]

Tony, it's the guys up front, big boys up front.

[Dan Le Batard]

Don't make him think at all. Don't make him do any math. Anything.

[Juju Gotti]

Shout out to bg, Right? Shout out to Tony for being back. Welcome back, brother. I've been kicking ass with Lewis and the MMA hangout, bro. They be get the numbers are going skyrocket. You dig it? So glad y'all got a chance to highlight my boy today. You did.

[Dan Le Batard]

Thank you. Tony, are you gonna get before the end of the week to your top 10 new dad observations, new father observations.

[Tony]

In the style of weekend observations, which we do tomorrow?

[Stugotz]

It's not a top 10. It's just 10 minutes long, like your racism.

[Chris Cody]

That also Evergreen.

[Dan Le Batard]

Okay, great. Excellent. Thank you.

[Stugotz]

And the socks.

[Dan Le Batard]

What else? Happy Black history.

[Juju Gotti]

Black history. Yeah. Speaking of that salute. Major salute award today for Jeremy Tashay for when you got into the plantation talk. He said, it's a town in Florida. You dig me?

[Chris Cody]

And.

[Juju Gotti]

And we. We needed that out there, Jeremy. Thank you, sir.

[Chris Cody]

Thank you, Juju.

[Dan Le Batard]

Important context. Yes. Chris Cody and his father, Greg Cody, they live in plantation. Not on a plantation.

[Stugotz]

As do I. Yeah. Jeremy lives there in plantation allyship.

[Tony]

Ooh.

[Juju Gotti]

Oh, no.

[Dan Le Batard]

Do think we need to change the name of plantation.

[Chris Cody]

I just want everyone to know that I. Davey, I am getting a petition going.

[Stugotz]

Dave and I live in West Palm Beach.

[Chris Cody]

I said to myself, I am getting out of this city.

[Dan Le Batard]

What else? And it was a moral decision. It was a moral decision. Ladies and gentlemen, an ally.

[Chris Cody]

Thank you, Chris.

[Stugotz]

Davey's a strange place.

[Dan Le Batard]

It really is.

[Chris Cody]

It's actually worse than Plantation.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yes, it is somehow way worse. That's right. That's absolutely right.

[Tony]

I have no idea what it is.

[Chris Cody]

Where the roundup is.

[Dan Le Batard]

The people. The people in Davey are trying to get away from all those progressives in Plantation.

[Juju Gotti]

Nothing wrong with the name to me.

[Stugotz]

Wow.

[Dan Le Batard]

Wow. The first ever black Zagaki black.

[Juju Gotti]

Yesterday also yesterday Mike said that if the Mavericks could go back in time, they probably would change up there. The way they did things with Luca. I like to also present that Dan Hurley. Wow. If he could go back in time and get a time machine and accept that Lakers gig instead of being high and mighty back in Yukon, you wouldn't be have to hurl insults people after the game. He went on a rant yesterday. He was mad. He was saying two rings after the game. I'm like, oh man, this is. This is getting bad.

[Dan Le Batard]

His. His arrogance is unusual. Coach man. Like that's. He. He is feeling himself.

[Stugotz]

Well, he's one back to back title.

[Dan Le Batard]

I know, but it's rare to have a guy this humble. Pie showy. It's that. Yeah. I like it.

[Juju Gotti]

Yeah. Also two minutes. Whenever David Sampson comes back down to Miami for snitching and reading Chris's private text messages live on air.

[Chris Cody]

Inaccurately too poor taste. He didn't even like read what I wrote.

[Dan Le Batard]

How did. How did the Samson segment go over? Juju I went. When it was on, I was. I was like, man, this is really good. This conversation is really good.

[Juju Gotti]

Yeah, it was real good. I mean, I don't know if he. Him and Darren reveal have a beef or whatever, but I think the overall it's good that he, you know, me holds itself in such high regard and thinks he is the. The businessman of the year. You feel me? We supposed to all think that, but if it's true or not, that's neither here nor there. The chat had a lot of opinions about.

[Dan Le Batard]

It's not true. It's not true. It is both here and there. It's not. It. It is true here and there that Darren Ravelle is more famous as a business person than David Sampson. And over there as well. And over there also salute to the chat as well.

[Juju Gotti]

Becca, Boo, Adam, Jameson, Brusco, Chris, David from Toronto, all the people who just support us every day. Man to y'all, man, hats off. I'm gonna get to the first poll now.

[Dan Le Batard]

So wait a minute. Just random shout outs. They didn't say anything interesting. They didn't give us anything interesting. It's just juju spreading love for people who Are loyal and support.

[Juju Gotti]

Yeah, for sure. I mean, they say a lot during the. Like, some people show up to the chat before we even start, and then they're there at the end of the chat whenever we. We've gone black screen. And I think that support, you know, I mean, deserves a shout out, bro. It's like the middle of the morning. They at work or whatever they doing. They still giving us a piece of their day. Love to you guys.

[Chris Cody]

David. David from Toronto is like an A1 listener. He's been with us since, like the L after hours days.

Same.

[Dan Le Batard]

I had a lot of people here. I was really. I know you guys feel like we got stuck in the mud on that, but really don't know what cocaine smells like. And I. If I'm being honest, I assumed it didn't have any kind of scent at all. I assumed.

[Stugotz]

The good cocaine? Yeah. From what I've been told.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yes. From what you've learned from. Yes.

[Stugotz]

The bad cocaine, though. Urine.

[Dan Le Batard]

Urine, yes.

[Juju Gotti]

And a bad smell puts you in a good place. 68% of the audience says no, it can't.

[Dan Le Batard]

The Orange Bowl. The Orange Bowl, Damn.

[Tony]

But you can close your eyes right now and think of the Orange bowl and the smell, and it's gonna put you in a good place.

[Dan Le Batard]

Well, it's not. It's gonna put me in a good place in terms of childhood memories, but what it's also gonna put me at is those ridiculous stadium troughs of urination that are just these of like, just 100 men around a circle. Because it's an old rip.

[Stugotz]

Good times.

[Dan Le Batard]

It's not. It's not the most hygienic. It's not good.

[Tony]

That guy's pushing a little too hard over there.

[Dan Le Batard]

But you know what I'm talking about this trough. The urine trough at the center of is civilized. Everything here is barbaric.

[Stugotz]

Let's go check out the bull bar.

[Chris Cody]

Yes, it was the bonfires where Tony lost me. Bonfire?

[Tony]

No, you didn't get it. You didn't get.
