\nJaxson Dart in good hands with Brian Daboll, New York Giants \u2014 renowned QB coach – Ed Valentine, BigBlueView.com
\n<\/h3>\n

Maybe Daboll\u2019s magic with Josh Allen will transfer to Jaxson Dart.<\/p>\n

\n

Quarterback coach Jordan Palmer has never worked with or met Jaxson Dart. Palmer and I had never met, either. When I reached out to Palmer\u2019s reps about having him on my podcast to talk about Dart and quarterback development, though, Palmer couldn\u2019t wait to make it happen.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m happy to talk about him because I\u2019ve got a lot of good things to say,\u201d Palmer told me. \u201cIf I didn\u2019t have anything good to say I wouldn\u2019t have said anything at all.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t do a ton of interviews but when this was set up I was like \u2018I\u2019d love to talk about Jaxson Dart.\u2019 I literally don\u2019t know him. I\u2019ve watched almost every snap he\u2019s played, I know everybody who trains him, guys who played with him. I have two clients who backed him up last year. I got to know a lot about this kid.\u201d<\/p>\n

Palmer\u2019s list of quarterback clients includes Joe Burrow, Trevor Lawrence, Sam Darnold, Bo Nix and Josh Allen. His work with Allen, of course, makes him intimately familiar with Giants head coach Brian Daboll works with quarterbacks.<\/p>\n

\u201cI genuinely feel like it\u2019s a great fit,\u201d Palmer said. \u201cI\u2019ve got a couple buddies that are diehard Giants fans. You guys should have something to be excited about right now, for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n

Palmer has referred to Allen as \u201cthe best athlete to ever play that position<\/strong>\u201d of quarterback. So, let\u2019s dispense with the idea that Daboll can or will turn Dart into Allen. That is not realistic.<\/p>\n

Palmer, though, does believe Dart is in good hands.<\/p>\n

\u201cI really like this marriage between Jaxson and Brian Daboll and his staff because I do see a lot of things in Jaxson\u2019s game,\u201d Palmer said. \u201cI don\u2019t work with Jaxson, but I certainly look at the game differently. I break down every single guy in the draft. I do my own draft grades.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been right a lot more than I\u2019ve been wrong, and I was really high on Jaxson.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Eagles\u2019 Saquon Barkley Has Message For Ravens\u2019 Derrick Henry – Patrick McAvoy, Sports Illustrated<\/h3>\n

Star running backs support star running backs that get new contracts.<\/p>\n

\n

It\u2019s no secret that the running back position has had an odd few years in the National Football League.<\/p>\n

The running back position as a whole likely has been underpaid and unappreciated. This is something that has been specifically shown in free agency. But, times are starting to change. Philadelphia Eagles superstar Saquon Barkley has helped to break the mold. Last year, he signed a three-year, $37.75 million deal with the Eagles after the New York Giants refused to pay him what he\u2019s worth.<\/p>\n

Barkley responded by having one of the best season by a running back in National Football League history. He racked up over 2,000 rushing yards in the regular season and over 2,500 yards overall including the playoffs. Barkley landed a new two-year, $41.2 million extension this offseason with Philadelphia.<\/p>\n

The running back position is starting to at least see the beginning of a sort of renaissance and another guy who has helped with this fact is Baltimore Ravens superstar Derrick Henry. He somehow only landed a two-year, $16 million deal last year with the Ravens but after yet another great campaign landed a two-year, $30 million extension on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Barkley had a brief message for his fellow superstar.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

Times are changing and these two are leading the charge. The running back position is starting to get the respect it deserves and the performance of generational stars like Barkley and Henry will significantly help those that will come next.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Commanders will face four opponents coming off byes in 2025 – Michael David Smith, NBC Sports<\/h3>\n

Washington\u2019s opponents will have plenty of rest this season.<\/p>\n

\n

The Commanders will play some well-rested opponents this season.<\/p>\n

The NFL schedule makers gave Washington four games against teams coming off their bye weeks, which is the most of any team in the NFL this season.<\/p>\n

The Commanders will see the Bears in Week Six, Seahawks in Week Nine, Broncos in Week 13, and Giants in Week 15, all coming off their byes. The Commanders\u2019 bye is in Week 12 at the same time as the Broncos, so Washington does not get to play a less-rested team after its own bye week.<\/p>\n

According to Seth Walder of ESPN, only 10 teams since 2002 have had to play four different opponents coming off their byes.<\/p>\n

The good news for the Commanders is that bye weeks have become less important in recent years, and last year teams coming off their byes actually had a losing record. So the extra rest may not help the Commanders\u2019 opponents all that much.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
