During the interview, Sando discusses why Lamar Jackson has never been viewed as a Tier 1 guy, the narrative that Josh Allen is destined to regress this upcoming season, the likelihood that Russell Wilson actually starts every game this season for Sean Payton, whether or not guys like Kirk Cousins or Derek Carr can jump up a tier with good seasons in 2023 and much more!

Jason brings you wall-to-wall reaction to The Athletic's 2023 NFL Quarterback Tiers. Why wasn't Jalen Hurts' MVP-caliber season enough to vault him into Tier 1? Will Josh Allen still be Tier 1 after this upcoming season? Why didn't Aaron Rodgers' ugly 2022 hurt his standing around the League the same way Russell Wilson's did? Which Tier 2 and Tier 3 quarterbacks will be viewed as Tier 1 in 2024? Does Patrick Mahomes belong on a special tier of his very own? J-Mac has the answers to all those questions - and more!
