Visit blueapron.com/slash terms for more. It is the JR Sport Brief Show here with you coast to coast. on the Infinity Sports Network. NFL season week one is in the books. You can't believe it's Come and gone already.
Here we are, September 9th. But to talk about what we've seen so far. Following week one, what we can anticipate moving forward. You've had some wild comebacks, we've seen some rookie performances. Joining us right now is someone who's a senior national reporter for the NFL network.
You see him on NFL Game Day kickoff. Shout out to all the work he does with HBCUs. Joining us right now is Steve Weisch. Steve, how are you, man? I'm good, J.R.
What's good? I'm good. Appreciate the time and and hopping on to join us. All these comebacks, what game captured your attention the most? Oh, I mean, uh clearly the the Bills Ravens game because, you know, when the Ravens are up.
40 to 25 with, you know, five minutes left, you're expecting to walk and then Buffalo to come in and and rally after mistake after mistake. I mean that that's Course, I think it was the most captivating game. Just a lot of I mean, seeing how the Chargers, you know, who are not afraid of the Chiefs, came out and kind of established there a little. You know, they made their their mark and their cent known. Week one though, I mean keep in mind, the ultimate non-truth teller.
Week two is more of an identifier of what some teams are going to end up being. When you think about what we saw last night, just taking a look at J.J. McCarthy, it's the tail of two games. I mean, the first three quarters, bad. And then the fourth quarter, you see a lot of what people kind of have discussed is positive qualities and leadership.
at the end. What do you draw from him? Of course it's going to be an up and down year. Yeah, I mean look I the the big takeaway It's even so much the production, it's the fact that he didn't wither. Right.
Things were tough. Dennis Allen was doing a lot at him. The running game was not working. It was just struggle after struggle. He was getting passes, batted down, but he kept coming.
And then once the running game got going with DeAndre Swift, I'm sorry with the Aaron Jones. there a little bit and then Jordan Mason really got it going. Then they started flowing. The offensive line started flowing. Remember that offensive line was getting pushed around earlier.
He just kept going and going, and then the dot to Justin Jefferson, and then the next one for the touchdown. And you could just see his whole demeanor.
So if you're a Vikings fan, I think the biggest thing. It's just that he stood up when the moment got big, and that's huge. for a guy in this league against that defense.
Well, on the other side, we got one winner. We have to have a loser. Caleb Williams, it seems like a lot of his press conferences, even. A season later start to sound the same. Do you think he'll develop into being that full-time guy and keep growing with the Bears?
It just seems like the same old story. I'm not going to judge him completely off of one game with a new Offensive coordinator and play caller. That's not fair. Um He's incredibly talented. I think he can develop.
I think people, again, this microwave.
society we have, we're expecting immediate results. Where I'm troubled He's on some of the open passes. You know, he had a couple of cold comet across the middle and things like that that he just sailed. I mean, the balls are right there. The one that ends up.
Yeah. Got to hit that. Those were the moments of truth. You know, you heard me talk about J.J. McCarthy didn't wither.
Well, you know, this is one where Caleb didn't, you know. and deliver. And so I think there's plenty there. I think it's going to take time for this offense to get going. Got a lot of new offensive linemen.
They're trying to figure some things out. I just, I'm not, you know, I'm not one who's going to sit here and be like, yeah, it's the same old story. I think. I think there's an opportunity for him to develop and get better. Remember, Jared Goff didn't jump off the page right away in the system, but he eventually got there.
NFL Network reporter Steve Weisch is joining us here on the JR Sport Brief Show.
Some people that we have seen got their chances and opportunities. It doesn't look good right now. In Miami. We heard about the terrible allegations levied upon Tyree Kill. They are allegations.
Mike McDaniel is already being asked about his job security. Are are the fish well, like they can sink, but it doesn't seem like they can swim either. Yeah, it just doesn't seem good. I mean, this year, you know, when they traded, the thing that caught my attention is when they traded Jalen Ramsey and Johnny Smith, the Steelers. And Raheem Mostert, the running back of the elect goes with the Raiders now, put out a tweet And yeah, you know, same old dolphins, and he puts a cuss word in there, you know, treating good veteran players, you know, like this.
Raheem Moser is the nicest guy in the world. And for him to pop something like that out there publicly. It lets you know there's some things going on behind the scenes. And for them to come out with a performance like that Um A shame, so again, I'll stick to it. Week one is the ultimate non-truth teller.
But if they don't get things going against New England this week, you're going to see. the the shark starts swimming around the blood, that'll be in the water. Oh, very much so. It's kinda you talk about week one. There's already Just uh Brian Dable has to answer questions.
about Russell Wilson and is he the next guy? Do you think it's realistic that we see Jackson dart sooner than later? Listen up, football fans. You won't want to miss this. Right now, new BET 365 customers bet $5 and get $300 in bonus bets, win or lose.

21 plus only. Must be physically located in North Carolina. TNC Supply in that only. Kevin Stefanski and Andrew Barrett, do you think that they are good at what they do? Yeah, I think so.
Will Stefanski, through Type Coach of the Year? Andrew Berry, I don't know who we bring to Haslams for the Destrong Watson debacle. The questions and the criticisms are more about ownership than anybody on the sideline or in the GM. He's the head coach of a franchise owned by Jimmy Haslam, so who knows if you put him in a more stable situation with a less volatile compound in the owner's box, maybe you get more. The Ken Carmen Show with Anthony Lima on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and wherever you get your podcast.
I think it's very realistic just because one, Brian Dayball, you know, he had his owner say in the offseason his patience was running thin.
So he knows he's on a clock. And if they don't win ball games, he's going to have to do something. And oftentimes, a coach who's in panic mode goes to the young quarterback. he was entrusted to develop. But in watching that game.
You can say that we can talk about Russ all we want. I just kept on seeing their offensive line get reset behind the line of scrimmage. I mean, they couldn't get anything going offensively. The commander's defensive front, when they were playing a lot of five-man fronts on first down, just kept on pushing them backwards.
So they were automatically behind the sticks and in kind of push mode. Um I don't think Jack and Dark could have changed anything. And the other thing, and I think Brian Dayball knows that, and I also think that that schedule, which is absolutely grimy. Um He's got to think about that. But at the same time, again.
Quarterback are coaches who know that they're on a short leash. A lot of time they go to the young quarterback as a potential life raft.
Well, Steve, we know the Giants are thinking about their quarterback situation. The Kansas City Chiefs are not. We saw them lose on Friday to the Chargers 27-21. Rashi Rice. In the midst of his suspension, you got Xavier Worthy getting knocked around.
What is your level of concern this season for the Kansas City Chiefs? It's it's legit. Um Probably more. than in previous years and again I'm not gonna they played a Our team. you know, week one But that situation a right tackle.
I mean, were there the the Mr. Mr. Penalty, Jawan Taylor, it just it doesn't go away. And then it left guard. As you saw quickly, if you're paying attention to that game, Patrick Mahomes is bail-in real early.
We could talk about him not having options and guys not getting open. He was bailing from his protections much earlier than he would like to.
So they've got to fix that offensive line. If they do, You know, because they have fifteen who is special. You know, they're still going to be in the mix. I don't like the way their defense got gouged. Um you just don't see that, but they're playing a familiar opponent who schemed them up.
We'll see if they tighten it up. But I think their issues are more along the offensive line at left guard and right tackle. than they are a wide receiver. We saw what happened in the Super Bowl. Not good for Mahomes running for his life.
Steve, if you take a look at this first week, is there a team that you were pleasantly surprised by their performance and feel good about them the rest of the way. Wow, that's a really good question. Um You know, the Rams, that was a super physical game they played against Houston, and the way their defense stood up. and made clutch plays. I think that's a team Um Yeah.
Again, they came into the season, a lot of people saying, you know, this is a really good team. I'll tell you what, the Green Bay Packers, that's why this game Thursday, and I'll be covering this game. against Washington. Packers and Washington are two teams I've really. got my eyes on because in week one the way Both sides control the lines of scrimmage.
Adding Micah Parsons to Rashawn Gary. And Luke Vaness on that defensive front for the Packers is scary.
So I think the Packers are a team. Again, we we knew they were going to be good, but we may have to to rethink. How good? Because that defensive front and the addition of Michael Parsons makes them. Absolutely.
It's going to be very interesting to see what Jaden Daniels continues to do here in his. His second year, kind of hard to just kind of top what he did last year. What are your thoughts on? The performance, because we get a guy like Cam Ward who goes to the Titans, he has a bad game. Jaden Daniels was really an outlier last year and almost taking his team to the Super Bowl.
It's almost unheard of from a rookie. Yeah, but I mean, you know, Bo Nix was there. I mean, those rookie quarterbacks, for the most part, you know, showed us something last year, but Jaden Daniels is so special. You continue to hear it. Just his level of understanding of the game.
We know he does the the VR. stuff and just he just doesn't ever seem overwhelmed. But now that they got him Debo Samuel to go with Terry McLaurin, you know, they add Laramie Tunzel. That defense is better. He's not going to be their leading rusher, right?
Last year, he was their leading rusher. They got Bill Krosky-Merritt, and they've got some pieces there to support him. I think that's how he's better. Last year, we had to be a lot of individual heroics and close games. I think this year they're just an overall better football team.
And his leadership and experience is something that can put them over the top. No, we're going to see.
Well, we got a good matchup, as you mentioned. Commanders and Packers Thursday night football. We can catch you on NFL Game Day kickoff. starting at 6 p.m. Eastern 3 Pacific.
On the NFL network, before we get to the game. Hey, Steve, I appreciate the time. And Howard Bison over here, I appreciate everything that you do to help. Elevate all the HBCUs and HBCU Go. You do a lot of great work, Steve.
We appreciate you, man.
Well, I appreciate you having me on. Let's keep on elevating and uplifting. No doubt about it. That is Steve Weisch, NFL Network Senior National Reporter here. On the JR Sport Brief Show.
