Speaker 1 (00:27):
Hello, Welcome in side Happy Thursday, The Jason Smith Show

is the way tire buying should be. Well, here we

(00:50):
are Thursday night football, eight and a half to go
in the third quarter. The Broncos with another field goal.
I feel like they've scored every single time they have
had the football. Uh. They lead the Chargers twenty four
to thirteen. It's been a big night for bow Nicks.
He's twenty out of twenty seven hundred and ninety six yards,
a couple of touchdowns. I really Mike when we talked

(01:12):
about this game last night, and you know, we're picking this,
and I said, Okay, the Chargers defense had a really
bad uh Sunday against the Bucks, but this is the
best defense in the NFL they've had. I'm sure they've
had a rough last couple of days of practice. They're
gonna have it working tonight. Nope. They look like they
are unprepared for anything the Broncos want to do on offense,

(01:32):
Like like every set, third and eleven, Hey, we're not
ready for that screen pass and she has a screen
pass for fourteen yards fifteen yards, Like everything the Broncos
have wanted to do on offense, the Chargers look like
they're not ready for.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
I thought you were gonna get some uh, some lift
and then you're gonna get Perryman back and Mays in
the lineup and all of this, Oh no, eight, they're gone.
So all of a sudden, you're you're rotating back in
and shuffling. But to your point, outside of his dopey
clock management in the end of the half, which we'll
get to in a minute, Sean Payton with a masterclass

(02:05):
in that first half. Right, you look at the game
against Tampa. The Chargers failed to force a punt in
that game, and then the first three drives for the Broncos.
Here the excellence of execution, three straight touchdowns. Everybody plays,
everybody wins, unless you're a Javonte Williams fantasy owner. Then
you get to watch the other other running back score.

(02:26):
But for bow Knicks, on the run, on the move,
and just plenty of throwing lanes and opportunities. And for
the Chargers, it goes back to the same question we've
been asking all along. Will they be able to score
enough points to stay with teams?

Speaker 1 (02:41):
You know, because the Chargers is its own thing, But
just you know a bit about Sean Payton is that Look,
I've said it all year long. He's the coach of
the year in the NFL. He has just a bunch
of guys. He's got a bunch of guys on this
team and bow Knicks. If bo Knicks was much more
sought after or was going to be more of a start,
he would have been drafted higher. But he wasn't. And

(03:01):
what he's been able to do with this team nine
and five and now a double digit lead midway through
the third quarter, looking for their tenth win when it
just defies logic that this team should be this good
and they can clinch a playoff berth with a win tonight,
and they don't have anything running the football that scares you.
They don't have anybody catching the football that really scares you.
Bo Nix is nice, but wow, does he really scare you? No,

(03:23):
he's making good throws. He's better than people anticipated. But
you know, you see Denver and all of a sudden,
it's it's there, so much greater than some of their parts.
But the game plan coming in tonight, clearly Sean Payton
knew what he wanted to do, knew what he could
catch the Chargers defense napping at or catch them on
roller skates on, and that's what he's doing. What he

(03:44):
is he has the Chargers completely off balance. And I
look at it and I go, man, I need to
forget how good a coach he was. You forget? Yeah,
I would give up a first round pick for him,
But Sean Payton, do you kid not give a course?
I give up a first round pick to get Sean
Payton at this point, to get him away from the
Saints because he walked like he has turned out to
be that guy, and I think as time goes on,

(04:04):
you're talking about a potential playoff clinching night tonight. This
is where Sean Payton's like, Yeah, there's other great teams
in the NFL. Everybody's doing really great things. But really,
you know, with Sean McDermott doing anything different, No is
John Harpad doing anything different. No, it's Andy Reid doing
anything different. No, Nick Sirianni, Well you can't stand him.
He's not doing anything different. But here's all of a

(04:25):
sudden Sean Payton from, Hey, we're gonna send away our
quarterback and we're gonna eat a lot of money and
we're gonna basically start over. Nope, our start over is
we're gonna be one of the top seeds in the
AFC in the playoffs. Yeah, I know, anybody else should
get a vote right now for Coach of the Year.

Speaker 3 (04:40):
Yeah, I'm surprised the running game hasn't been better in
the process. I guess that would be the only thing
that really kind of stands out is that hasn't gotten going.
But they've got two touchdowns today and a would be
clinching games. So all of that renders moot as you
go to the playoffs, and but you look at the
schedules and it's some of what we talk talked about,

(05:00):
and even just looking at the game coming into tonight.
You gotta win the games that you're supposed to and
guess what the games in the margins. And now that
Broncos have done it with more style points, they've had
a few more blowout wins than we've seen from the
Los Angeles Chargers to get to their nine wins.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
Yeah, it's not like they're winning games like sixteen thirteen
and twelve ten in the snow and oh they won
three to nothing in the slush. Now, they were the
best offense in the NFL over the last five six
that's how a ton of points.

Speaker 3 (05:31):
Obviously, we have that game against the Chiefs and we
can talk about that one sixteen fourteen to l But
I get I guess the point I'm getting to is
the only team they beat that is quote unquote good.
Is Tampa always Senseivetember No, no, no.

Speaker 1 (05:47):
But only beaters on this beats on the schedule.

Speaker 3 (05:50):
But all I'm trying to say is, let's not crown anybody. Okay,
you're taking care of business. Yes, you crushed the five
and a half or six and a half or wherever
you got in on their win total. For Sean Payton,
it's it's a nice job. Don't get me wrong. I
thought bo Nix was a better quarterback than most and
that their roster really wasn't that bad. Vance Joseph should

(06:12):
be your defensive court. Is there a defensive Coordinator of
the Year award? Like we have all those college awards?
Do they get something? He carried them? You want to
the year?

Speaker 4 (06:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (06:23):
Now the offense has been carrying in the last few weeks,
so you want to give it. You're ready to give
the defensive Coach of the Year to Vance Joe, I.

Speaker 3 (06:33):
Said, if there's a defensive coordinator, sure, that's what I'm.

Speaker 1 (06:38):
Saying for you want to give him the award all.
You want to give him that award, But you won't
give Sean Payton coach of the Year yet, No, because
again you hate Sean Payton, just saying, I what did
he do to you about.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
A fan of how everybody's gone out of their way
to genuflect to the guy through the years. He increased
won Super Bowl a long time ago. Yeah, with every player,
we kill them. Ah man, that was so long ago
or they only got one? All right, he got one?
Wait another, I'm.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
Looking to see if somewhere, hey, you know sources, Sean
Payton rebuffs Bears for head coaching job, Bears to higher
eber Flus Like, I'm looking to see if that was somewhere,
because you really are anti Sean Payton. That's amazing man, A.

Speaker 3 (07:20):
Great coach, no question about it. Go win some more.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
Though, But but you're ready to give his defensive coordinator,
if the defensive coordinator of the Year award, but you
don't want to give him the head coach.

Speaker 3 (07:29):
They're tied for the league lead and fewest points allowed
per game.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
But you said there's more to be played, there's more
to be done. Beat up.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
Well, they're gonna get roasted by the Cincinnati offense a
week from now.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
Okay, all right, all right, all right, well anti shok
hang on, hang on Twitter, Mike Harmon, hate Sean Payton,
anyone with information? Why hit me back.

Speaker 3 (07:52):
There's not a matter of let's be level headed about that.
I'm not a hyperbole Let's, you know, bow to a guy.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
You're not ready to say, who the who? Who do
you think is the best coach in the NFL. Right now,
then if it's not Sean Payton, who isn't What do
you like with this roster that they've had and the
division that they're in? Give me, give me no, don't
that's it? Wow, Mike Tom for Kevin O'Connell. You're gonna
say Jeff Albrick.

Speaker 3 (08:16):
Actually no, I would either go Tomlin or probably more
likely O'Connell, because remember, everybody, I love their roster. It
was all just what are you getting out of the quarterback?
And boy did he coax a lot out of the quarterback.
Now you can't tell the tale without Brian Flores and
what that defense is meant. But you know, because it'll
mean more to hurt you. I just yell Sam, Sam, Sam,

(08:39):
every chance I get you.

Speaker 1 (08:41):
Look that that's the you know you look at Minnesota.
I'm with you. Kevin O'Connell's terrific coach. He's a big
quarterback whisper, He's done a tremendous job. He's got a
really good roster, you know, I mean Minnesota.

Speaker 3 (08:50):
They were still projected really good roster because everybody was
everybody was expecting the Bears. And I tried to warn you,
and you screwed me, and we knew the Packers and
the Lions we're gonna be good. So look, coming into
the year, the Vikings were picked last in most boards, and.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
He now the Uh so as we differ a little
bit on Coach of the Year. Uh. The thing about
the Chargers, okay, and they are driving now potentially, Uh,
they're gonna have a first and goal after a late
hit when Herbert slid down. Uh, there's gonna be a
late hit. Yeah, you lead with your forearm. We saw
that last weekend Jacksonville.

Speaker 3 (09:26):
That's gonna a good move.

Speaker 4 (09:28):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
They're gonna have a first and goal from inside the eighth.
But here's the thing about the Chargers is that the
Broncos jumped out to a big lead and the Chargers
still seem bent on we are going to run the
football when we don't run the football really well? Right
when JK Dobbins, Yes, JK Dobbins, they run the football well.
But this is a Charger team that you know, A,

(09:50):
you're not gonna be able to sustain this running game
because these guys get hurt and B you can't just
put anybody out there and and decide, hey, we're gonna
go and we're just gonna try to run football. You
have to really just understand that. Okay, your best playmaker
is Justin Herbert and Lad McConkie, and you're kind of
driven that way. And if you want to have a
sledgehammer balanced offense, that's great. But man, the number of

(10:11):
times the Charge go Okay, first down run, first down,
run for second down, and nine, here's another run, It's
like you're just running with a bunch of guys, right.
I mean, Gus Edwards goes in from a few yards
out for a touchdown here to cut the lead. But
by and large, Gus Edwards has been a guy.

Speaker 4 (10:25):
Right.

Speaker 1 (10:25):
He's got eight carries for eighteen yards to night, they've
run twenty times for sixty eight yards. Herbert's the best
run at Rusher tonight with four scrambles, had a big
scramble for a first down. So it's I feel like
if the Chargers really want to do damage and they're
not just happy, Hey, we're happy what we're doing. We're competing.
We probably are gonna make the playoffs. That's really happy. Now,
if you really want to want to do something, you

(10:48):
have to open up the offense a little bit and
understand that. Okay, we're not gonna be able to win
every game seventeen to ten. You know we're not. You
know you're not nineteen to sixteen because as Harbaugh is seeing, Hey,
wait a minute, maybe my defense isn't quite as good
as I thought it was. Like when your defense was great,
you think that way. Look, that's what Mike Tomlin's been
lulled into for the last few years. Hey, I only

(11:08):
want to score sixteen points. So don't you want to
score No.

Speaker 3 (11:10):
No, no, no, no, no, no, no no no.

Speaker 1 (11:12):
I we're gonna we're only gonna give up ten. We're
only gonna get up thirteen. We're only gonna give up nine.
Like if you've got to understand that, Okay, maybe this
is not quite the defense that it was because here's
two games in a row and this is in December
where you got worked by Tampa and now you're getting
worked by Denver. I mean, I gotta understand. Okay, yeah,
you need to button things down defensively, but you gotta
open things up offensively more. You gotta be able to

(11:34):
score points with with the other big teams if you're
gonna win, because you're not good enough to be that. Hey,
We're just gonna put our defense out there, run the
football a bunch, throw and we want to and expect
to walk away with a win. It's not gonna happen.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
Well, the point is that you don't have enough weapons
in your receiving corps to open up the game to
really do any damage. Now, do you as much as
I like Stone Smart because his name.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
Is Stone Smart, his last name is Smart with the
extra team, what do you like better that is for
name of Stone or that his last name is SMI.

Speaker 3 (12:01):
I think it's without the combination. I don't think it works.

Speaker 1 (12:05):
Uh, okay, Well if it well, I don't know. Well, okay, sure,
if as well as his first name was Get with
two t's, that'd be pretty cool.

Speaker 3 (12:12):
Well, I mean, look, if they were that much on
the nose, he would have that much of a more
of a chip on his shoulder and propelled to even
further greatness. But the loss of Disley was big for them, right.
He was their second leading receiver to Lad McConkey, who
somehow still finds his way into wide open space in
the secondary. He's five for five seventy yards tonight. But

(12:33):
beyond that, who do you fear in that receiving corps.
There's nobody, and nobody's emerged. You didn't get go and
find anybody to bolster things deadline or waiver wires or
any of those things. And then the rushing game you
lost the guy that was averaging five yards of pop.
Now you knew you were playing with fire when you

(12:55):
brought both he and the Gus Buss in. Gus Buss
who just scored again twenty four nineteen. You score three
minutes left third quarter, failed two point conversion. He's got
nine carries twenty three yards. What do we always say?
Fall forward?

Speaker 1 (13:09):
Listen, just get the ball hit the line of scrimmage,
fall forward.

Speaker 4 (13:11):
But I got.

Speaker 1 (13:14):
A two yard carry.

Speaker 3 (13:15):
But what I really wanted to have happened. And this
is not anti Sean Payton, you know me. I hate
coaching stupidity when when you've got the opportunity to go
into halftime with a lead like they did. Uh, and
then you call passing players on first and second down
when the Chargers are still sitting on three timeouts inexplicably
on three timeouts as well. But they they go, and

(13:37):
the Chargers are able to do the free kick field
goal to give them a three point boost going into halftime.
I really hope that comes back and bite you in
the ass.

Speaker 1 (13:47):
I just do coaching.

Speaker 3 (13:49):
Malfeason should not be rewarded.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
Yeah, no, no, look, it's it's uh, it's really fun
and it's fun to see the look and look. That's
been the most fun thing tonight is to see the
the field goal kick though after the fair catch, where hey,
there's no rushing you can just bang it. You know,
I'm really surprised you don't see that more. You know,
there's there's opportunities to see something. I'm really surprised you
don't see stuff like that more. But it really there's

(14:13):
nobody rushing. It's kind of weird to see. But that's
been my favorite play of the game.

Speaker 3 (14:17):
So far because you had the penalty right, so add
fifteen and then a lot of consternation confusion. Last one
that was attempted was in twenty nineteen by Joey Sly
against Tampa sixty yarder game played in London, and he
missed it. The last conversion the Great Ray Wersing nineteen
seventy six.

Speaker 1 (14:37):
Woof, man, I'll tell you a free kick. So again
a big three points there for the Chargers. They trail
twenty four to nineteen three minutes to go in the
third quarter. We'll keep you updated on this game throughout
the night tonight. It looks like Justin Herbert's elbow is
getting worked on for a cut. Oh just like it's
like me in the back, like me in the bathroom.
I gotta cut there, but to put put a little

(14:59):
bit of an a septica, They're gonna put a little
bit of all right, I got some massive tracing, gonna
put a banda job.

Speaker 3 (15:03):
How often do you cut your head when you're shaving it?

Speaker 1 (15:06):
Uh, you know, don't say it. I'm not gonna because
I don't want to put it out there. I would
say not very often. I used to, but not very often. No,
now it's now, it's now. I'm pretty I'm pretty good
about it.

Speaker 3 (15:16):
They've also spent a lot of money on the technology
of newer, better razors.

Speaker 1 (15:20):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean I think back to
when I first started shaving it. It was either had
the one blade or the two blades. And like you know,
once in a while, like when I would you travel
you buy I'd buy a travel blade. I go, oh
my god, I actually used to just that's cutting my
face up there. We used to actually shave with these things. Yeah,
but five blades really, No, five blades is awesome. It

(15:40):
gets right, it gets really really close, and I don't
cut myself all the time. One blade thing is terrible.

Speaker 3 (15:46):
Why I knew all the all the older men that's
you know, groove beards and and then would go for
the the haircut and shave. It was always a straight razor.
Never hey I'm shaving at home. No, it was professionally done.
Always get my by touch up. Most of the guys
you can give them a quick fin and they give
you the five minutes you're done.

Speaker 1 (16:03):
You just said a finn like it's nineteen fifty seven. Hey,
how about I give you a finn and then your
sister and I gonna go swing dancing later out tonight.
How about that? Ah yeah yeah, see yeah, I mean
give me a fin, give me a finn ski? How
about that?

Speaker 3 (16:15):
A yeah Southside Chicago, baby, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
Finn skeke? How about a fin skee? I don't have
a finn skate.

Speaker 3 (16:19):
Anytime you can add a ski to things you want?

Speaker 1 (16:22):
Uh so more on this game, but coming up next, apparently,
well it's not often an eighteen year old kid is
running an NFL franchise. But apparently that's the case. After
the big story today, can I guess who? I can't
even the details. It feels like it's made up, but
it's not. Here's the story coming up next, Jason to Bike.

friend Mike Harmon live from the Tirac dot Com Studios
four D Just underway in Los Angeles. Chargers have the football.
They trail the Broncos by five twenty four nineteen. We'll
have more on this game as it continues to unfold.

(18:13):
Broncos can clinch a playoff berth with a win. Charges
right behind Hi at eight and six. But apparently, you know,
showing that it is it is clear that I don't
know there's any such a thing as rock bottom. Apparently
the New York Jets are run by Woody Johnson's eighteen
year old son, Brick.

Speaker 3 (18:33):
Ye my Brick, my sweet Brick, Oh my sweet.

Speaker 1 (18:37):
I just that's all I think of.

Speaker 4 (18:39):
What I hear?

Speaker 1 (18:40):
Yeah, it just I don't think of like, hey, what
a great name, man, I'd like to be named brick.
You know, we got we so last week we did
a story. A few minutes ago we had Stone Smart.
Now we have Brick Johnson. We got stones, we got bricks,
got everything. That's I don't think, Oh, brick man, Hey,
how you doing we do something about the rock on Brick.
I just oh my sweet Brick. And like here's a
walking around like brick tamblin. He's only a grenade going

(19:05):
ah loud noise. It mean, I can't think of.

Speaker 3 (19:09):
Anything else at this point. You know what put that
out there?

Speaker 1 (19:14):
You know, we we had the bit the tip of
the Iceberg story yesterday that Brick Johnson, Woody Johnson's eighteen
year old son, Woody Johnson, owner of the Jets, has
a little bit of influence over some of the decisions
that are made with the Jets. Okay, all right, well
that's really really embarrassing. Hey no, no, no oh, that's

(19:34):
just the appetizer. We got a full five course meal
in dessert coming today. The Athletic published a story today
about the dysfunction of the Jets. That basically says that
Brick Johnson and and and to a lesser extent, Woody
Johnson's other younger son, Jack, make a lot of decisions
or help Woody Johnson make a lot of decisions to

(19:56):
wit one of the many things. There's so many things,
but the number one I'm getting all the attention today.
The Jets could have traded for Jerry Judy in the offseason.
Judy who was They always waited for his potential to
get there in Denver. It couldn't get there for the
last three years. They move on, they send him to Cleveland.
He's just a guy. And then when Jameis Winston takes over. Now,
Jerry Judy is a top ten wide receiver in the NFL. Right, so,

(20:17):
Judy's been terrific over the last month. They had a
trade for Jerry Judy, but the deal was nixed, according
to the Athletic, because Jerry Judy's Madden rating was too
low and it was something that Brick Johnson talked about
with Woody. The Madden rating was too low and so

(20:39):
they didn't make the trade because his Madden rating was
too low.

Speaker 3 (20:42):
Well, shouldn't they have gone to the authors of the
rating to find out that they were wrong before they
made such a hasty decision.

Speaker 1 (20:49):
I mean, I mean they also say that they were
almost not going to sign John Simpson, one of their guards,
because he didn't have a really good Madden grade in
one of the categories, like like this is how this
is how an owner decides to make I'm gonna go
to me. I don't know who this guy am. I
gonna watch film not It's gonna go to Madden and
see what his rating is. Seef he's any good. Yeah,
that's also to be.

Speaker 3 (21:09):
Like Gil Brandt when he used to admonish you, what's
your system?

Speaker 1 (21:13):
Oh, kil Brant would never have worked with Woody Johnson.

Speaker 3 (21:15):
What's your system? Gil Brandt, the architect of these Cowboys
teams all those years ago, went into the Pro Football
Hall of Fame, was on the show guy we we
both knew once berating you asking what your system was of,
you know, charting people, And I guess now the algorithm
we know is what a little bit of pro football focus?

(21:36):
And then Madden Rating. I mean, I like, what's the wait?
Is there anything else in there?

Speaker 1 (21:41):
Every time I think, come on, man, you know this
is an NFL team. Stuff like this. This is a
really big deal. This is a big business man. This
is an organization that's worth in the multiple billions of dollars.
They don't do things like nope, nope, we get stuff
like this now. Yeah, Madden ratings, Madden ratings. My eighteen
year old son is a voice. And and and the
point that the let it makes, which is which is
a good one, is that, Hey, it's not that suddenly

(22:04):
Brick Johnson is is making all these decisions. It's that
when information is brought to Woody Johnson about a player
or a situation, you know, these professionals that have been
working in this their whole life, they'd say what they want.
And then Brick has an equal voice like that because yeah, no,
I hate it, Like I just picture him like sitting it,
like being on his phone, going who now hate him? Leave?

(22:25):
Say you goodbye, goodbye? All right, try try somebody else. No,
I'm not gonna usually what his rad and rating is.
We're we're not making this trade. We're not making this
to be fair, I.

Speaker 3 (22:32):
Think there's gotta be something in the water in New York,
New Jersey then, because remember Shane's kid, right, hey, off
season hard knocks right, he was a guy trying to
yell at him about moves. They should make guys, they
should draft guys, they should get away from all of that.
By the way, you missed the obvious Jack Johnson joke.
It was a great opportunity to do three minutes of
filibustering as Curious George, and you failed.

Speaker 1 (22:55):
H oh oh hey, if Curious George ran the Jets,
we'd be better. They bet he'd made great decisions. Boy,
are our team would change colors from a green to
a really bright looking yellow. It would be fantastic.

Speaker 3 (23:07):
What do you call that play? I don't know. It's
a scramble. He somehow gets out of trouble.

Speaker 1 (23:12):
Every time that Judge would lose, would come into a
press conference and go, George, I mean I really, honestly,
I'm telling you, I speak for a living. I've spoken
for a living for over twenty years of my life,
and not would it continue to do so, you know,
for a while longer. I have no idea what to say.
At this point, I have no idea what to say

(23:34):
to Here's a story that a Madden rating effects a
trade and an eighteen year old kid has influence over
the owner as far as what moves are made for
an organization. I really that absolutely baffles me. I don't
know what to say. I mean, as if as it's like, hey,
wait a minute, we heard the other night you talked
about the train wreck the Giants were the train wreck,

(23:55):
the Raiders. No, we're the biggest train wreck. And suddenly
Cowboys fans are going, hey, maybe Jerry Jones and so
bad because he doesn't do stuff like this. I didn't
think Jerry Jones knows what Madden is. He just thinks
it's still John Madden. Oh is he doing the game
on Monday? Is he announced that he's good? He's good
him at summer all? They're really good to get I
gotta call them up, hang out they're doing the game.
I gotta call uh. I really, I don't know what

(24:17):
to say. Woody Johnson is just this is an embarrassing
story and the fact that get this gets out and
and not only that, but you had Joe Douglas, a
quote from him, who the Jets fired as a GM
a few weeks ago, said, I answer to a teenager again.
This all according to the Athletic Report, I answer to
a teenager they wanted to give the game ball after
Jeff Ulbrick's first win to Jeff Ulbrick, and Aaron Rodgers

(24:39):
has the ball. It's a big emotional moment, and and
Brick decides to grab a football and give it to
Garrett Wilson and give this profanity lace speech before before
anybody else can do something and give it up. I mean,
it's insane, like the these are the stories, these are
the Jets, These are the Jets. And then today Garrett
Wilson says, I don't know if I want to be here.
I don't I don't know If'm gonna be here long term.

(25:00):
He could be traded the off season, Like this is
just this is just an absolute tire fire man. But
on the on my bingo card of reasons for Jets dysfunction,
like listening to an eighteen year old college freshman and
and and paying attention to Madden ratings for who you're
gonna who you're gonna go after and free agency you're
trade for like that's like that's new man, Like that

(25:23):
is like completely bottom of the barrel. That is like
rock bottom. And I don't know, man, I know the
Jets are gonna try to use some TNT and blow
up that rock bottom. But today really might be the
rock bottom point of the franchise. I don't know that
it gets lower than the owner listens to his kid
and and and yeah, and we we pay I pay
attention to Madden ratings like this is a lot of
a sitcom.

Speaker 3 (25:43):
Yeah no, but that's that's where I'm headed here, the
dramaedy that is shrinking. Uh as we get ready for
the season finale, right, Siegel and Harrison Ford, Kristan Miller
and and McGinley and everybody else, rolling after to where
I want to sit down with the Johnsons and just
kind of talking out with him. So you got that part,
the serious part. The other is, hey man, all we
do is complain that there's no succession plans for a

(26:05):
lot of these families. He just decided he found the
guy at eighteen. Right, I'm sitting in with my Chicago
White Sox right of Jerry Reinsdorf. What happens, I don't know.
Is he gonna sell the team? Well, no question here,
you got an eighteen year old who's getting on the
job draining right now. I'm all via the Madden portal.

Speaker 1 (26:26):
I just I just missed my calling. Man, I really did,
like nowadays anything the son of a rich owner. Yeah,
I mean, if I was just the son of a
rich owner, I'd be running the Jets. I'd been running
the Jets for years. It would be awesome, right, you know,
broadcasters getting head coaching jobs and GM jobs like I
missed my time, I missed my window.

Speaker 3 (26:43):
Now if you were the owner, would you be in
the booth like Jerry Jones for all the interviews he
does whatever? Yeah, I've been surprised that he doesn't just
show up after halftime with a headset on. All right,
I'm gonna call the rest of this one with you.

Speaker 1 (26:56):
You think he needs a headset? You don't think he's
got all the head coach coaches have get an implant
in the side of their head so they can hear me.

Speaker 3 (27:04):
Oh, I meant. As a radio or TV host, all.

Speaker 1 (27:08):
I gotta do is put my two fingers together and
you hear every word to say, so just so you know,
and you can never turn it off, So you gotta
be able to listen to what I have to say.
But like Jerry Jone, Like I'd rather have Jerry Jones
than than Woody Johnson. Because I know, like, right now,
we have no future. We have absolutely no future, absolutely none.

Speaker 3 (27:26):
But he's eighteen, he'll grow in. Come on, we're talking
about all these would be coordinators turn head coaches.

Speaker 1 (27:35):
Screw that. This guy's got on the job draining dude.
Even Brian Cox knew his kids couldn't say, hey, listen,
none of you, none of you can do it. Right,
I'm going off the board for my pick, right, you
can't do it, or you or you no, no, I'm
going off the board in succession.

Speaker 3 (27:48):
And meanwhile, you know, while he's giving up that family business,
he's making a boatload of money telling me to go
order delicious fries.

Speaker 1 (27:56):
Oh yeah, yeah, I bought ump bump bump. Uh. I
mean I I I can't believe that this is real.
I can't believe this is a real story. And and
mainly the fact that the Jets push back on this
is just sort of pushback, like it's like, oh, it's
ridiculous to think that that that brick Johnson owns. And
you know, you're you're you're talking about a kid having

(28:16):
influence over team. But yeah, but a lot of other
stuff hasn't been really just hey, we're deflecting that or
we're denying this, like Joe Douglas's quotes about I listened
to an eighteen year old and the Madden rating about it,
and the Jets even even say the mad rating was
a part of it, right, it was a part of
the discussion, Like hell, is a Madden rating a part
of anything?

Speaker 3 (28:35):
Well, I mean, look, you want to take look, you
want to take in information from wherever, and long ago
you decided this was valid. Otherwise the NFL and their
partnership would have pushed back on the evaluators, wouldn't they
have because it would have been a bad representation in
the league. So on some level, you've enabled this kind
of activity. And I have to wonder if in the

(28:56):
deep bowels of a lot of these other teams, if
that's not how they're making their decis visions, they've created
super teams. Then watch these guys run Amucket. It's like, Aha,
look at how great he is.

Speaker 1 (29:06):
If we run this play, I mean, this is I
don't know the I don't I'm really I don't know
that you can have a more embarrassing story involving how
a professional franchise is run than this. And I'm sure like, oh,
there's gonna be you know, old TV, old newspaper reporters going,
let me tell you about how so and so is
run in nineteen sixty six. Like okay, that's like, you know,

(29:27):
before we even had color television. Okay, So I mean no,
I mean like now in twenty twenty four, Like, I
don't know, it can get more embarrassing than this.

Speaker 3 (29:34):
But that's the thing, though, how can we get more embarrassing?
This actually gets out? So that means that that people
are finally at their wits end, and it's like, all right,
the old man needs to, you know, have his his
come to Jesus moment here, and we're gonna out every
bit of it and you're either just more laughing stock
or maybe actually reevaluate how you're doing things. Likelihood is
that it remains the former. But the other is in

(29:56):
all these stories, right, the plenty of things that are
in the news wire today, it's like, remember how much
everybody used to lament the last few years. Wow, we've
lost access. We've lost this ability and that connection that
we used to have. We don't get to hang around
the locker rooms, we don't build this that the other, Well,
give me all those stories.

Speaker 1 (30:14):
Let's go.

Speaker 3 (30:15):
Let's talk about the drinking binges after, you know, on
a road trip, and how you might have come up
with a couple of plays when you were a beat
writer for any team USA. I mean, there's all sorts
of stories in the Naked City that I'm waiting for
to be exposed. Let's go.

Speaker 1 (30:31):
I mean, I mean, I know there's gonna be some,
but I mean, dude, it's twenty twenty four and Madden
ratings and an eight reen year old kid apparently has influence.

Speaker 3 (30:41):
Is because his name is Brick? Is that just really
getting you? Like, if it would have been the even
though he's younger, if it would have just been old
Jack Johnson would not have said that, would TJ.

Speaker 1 (30:51):
Who's to say, Okay, we're not gonna sorry. I mean,
I really, I don't know how you get more embarrassing
this in the history of sports. I don't understand. I
read this. What did you expect? This is how it's run,
This is how this is how a professional sports team
is run. Like, I can't imagine where if you're Joe Douglas.

(31:11):
Now I feel bad, you know, as much as Joe
Douglas Jets GM like you know, screwed up things. Couldn't
get the offensive line, although he got the offensive line
right of the way out the door, so thanks jo D.
Like can you imagine like if his life was, Hey, yeah,
you got a big ten am meeting with Woody and Brick.
Oh great, thanks, okay, I'll bring my stuff in, you know,
and then and then you know, he's he's got all
this stuff and all the tape e y everything else,

(31:33):
and Brickers just sit again. Bricks is sitting there on
his phone or his iPad going no, no, no, no,
don't do that, Dad, Dad, don't do that. Dad, no Dad,
Dad no no no no no no no no. Like
I really I can't. I can't understand, and I can't understand.
And this is what hit me today. What I'm like,
oh my god. Like Aaron Rodgers knows all of this, right,

(31:54):
he's been in for all he knows all of this,
and he still said yesterday he wants to come back,
like I'll take less money to be a Jet and
I'll mentor a quarterback to be a Jet. He's so
desperate because he knows it's the Jets are nothing in
the NFL. It's got to kill him to go. This
is the team I gotta pledge little loyalty to and
fealty that I have to just say I want to
be back. This is the team that runs things this

(32:15):
way with Madden ratings. This is the team. This is
my But I'm desperate. I'm so deaf. Like he knows
all this and still he wants to come back to
the Jets.

Speaker 3 (32:24):
He just loves football. Oh my god, or the idea
that not playing football takes away any of the the
juice that he's got in the larger world.

Speaker 1 (32:34):
Exit out about a Fresca exit swollen down The Giants
Smith Show with Mike Carmen Live. Oh it's my fault
because I could have picked the Giants. You could have
not your fault, but you know, your whole shrinking thing
gives me an idea. We'll get to come. But first
we have a leap change in Los Angeles between the
Broncos and the Chargers. Martin Weiss has that more. What's

(32:57):
trending right now in the wide world of sports, MMed up.

Speaker 3 (32:59):
That's all right.

Speaker 5 (33:00):
You saw Josh Palmer make one of the better catches
of the year on a two point conversion. Right now,
the Los Angeles Chargers have a twenty seven to twenty
four lead over the Denver Broncos, who have been leading
this game and in its entirety until right now. It's
again eight points so far for the Chargers in the
fourth quarter. Dus Hervers got one touchdown. He's twenty twenty

(33:21):
four two hundred and thirty six.

Speaker 1 (33:23):
Yards through the air.

Speaker 5 (33:24):
The leading rusher for the Chargers as well is Herbert
twenty nine yards on the ground. Go Uvige of twenty
seven just seventy seven for the whole team two rushing touchdowns.
Bo Nicks is twenty three for thirty two for two
thirteen through the year and two touchdowns. Audric estimate the
leading rusher for the Broncos forty one yards and a
touchdown as well. Denver does have the ball approaching a

(33:45):
third and eight right now with ten minutes left in
the fourth quarter. See if they can keep something alive
here in the NBA right now in overtime one minute
twenty seconds left in overtime. The Spurs have a thirty
one point thirty rather to won twenty six lead over
the Hawks. Victor Winbanyama something slight forty two points, six rebounds,

(34:06):
four blocks, try young not to be denied twenty three points,
sixteen assists and three steals. Clippers have a one hundred
and four to ninety two lead over the Dallas Mavericks.
Spencer Dinwiddie leading Dallas in points with nineteen. The Pacers
have a eighty six to seventy five lead over the Suns.
Pascal Siakam the high man fifteen points, thirteen rebounds at
the half, the Knicks leading the Timberwolves by twenty two

(34:29):
seventy three to fifty one. Karl Anthony Towns in that
revenge game twenty two points, twelve rebounds. Julius Randall, who
was traded for with twenty one points, the Trail Blazers
leading the Nuggets of forty to thirty seven, the Lakers
leading the Kings thirty nine to thirty three. Earlier today
we saw the Golden State Warriors get salacked one forty
four to ninety three. The final score. The Memphis Grizzly

(34:53):
is putting it on them. Brandon Pitzemski, the leading scorer
for Golden State al Dama the leading scorer for a
Memphis here John Murray not so much, twenty one points,
fourteen rebounds, a.

Speaker 1 (35:03):
NFL injury news. You know it's spent.

Speaker 5 (35:05):
Alva Kamara's growing injury might be season ending for the
New Orleans Saints. Lions running back David Montgomery optimistic that
his knee injury is not season ending. He's trying to
rehab and hopefully return some point this postseason. Patrick Mahomes
off the injury report, good to go for Saturday's game
against the Texans. DJ Humphreys out left tackle. Wide receiver
Hollywood Brown is trying to make his debut. Head coach

(35:27):
Eddy Reesay's decent chance. There not such for George Pickens,
who will miss Saturday's game against Baltimore for Pittsburgh.

Speaker 1 (35:34):
Same with Justin Fields.

Speaker 4 (35:35):
TJ.

Speaker 5 (35:35):
Watt looks like he should go. Isaac Garrendo will miss
for the forty nine Ers. He's got a hamstring Sunday's
game against Miami. I should say he's a long shot.
And Jason Smith your Jets interview Jim Naggy, the guy
who runs the Senior Bowl down in Mobile for their
general manager Vacancy. I was at the Senior Bowl last
year and everywhere you go through Mobile it's plastered the
draft starts here.

Speaker 1 (35:56):
So Jason, he might know a little thing or two
about the draft. Good luck back to you.

Speaker 3 (36:00):
Good luck with that, Martin.

Speaker 1 (36:03):
Here's the thing. I get interviewed on Saturday, just so
you know, this is where the Jets are. I have
you with Saturday. I like you Saturday two, thanks Buddy.
Jason Smith Show with Mike Carmon Live the tire Rag
dot Com Studios. I mean, well again, I have a
really big, fun idea that I think can really work
thanks to this crazy ass Jet story from today. But
coming up next it is college football playoff Eve, the

(36:28):
big one tomorrow night. Who's walking away with the dub
and head into the next round? Mike and I will
tell you next Jason and Mike Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 2 (36:37):

pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio.

Speaker 1 (36:46):
App Fox Sports Radio. The Jason Smith Show with my
best friend Mike Harmon. I just wanted to make it
to Harrison Ford saying how ridiculous this this? This is ridiculous?

Speaker 4 (36:58):
Hey?

Speaker 1 (36:59):
Really quick before where we get into the Chargers and
their last gas victory over the Denver Broncos. I just
want to say this. I think I have a change.
I think I have a change in the In the
TV show, we talked about Bencio the whole or doing
a TV show surrounding an eighteen year old kid who
basically runs his dad's pro football team. After the report
of the Jets today, Jared Leto as the aging quarterback

(37:21):
instead of Matthew mcconmaughey, like, Jared Lettle could play really weird,
like you know, Samon Aaron Rodgers. Jared Leto as the
aging quarterback?

Speaker 3 (37:30):
Is he also the joker?

Speaker 4 (37:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (37:32):
Bringing back is that there.

Speaker 1 (37:33):
Would there would be a scene where he's putting paint
on to make him look like the joker a little bit,
like what are you doing?

Speaker 3 (37:38):
I'm lying around with a circle of knives around him.

Speaker 1 (37:42):
I'm going out to meet the aliens.

Speaker 4 (37:44):
Man.

Speaker 1 (37:44):
That's where we're going. Beef exit out about a Fresca
X at Swollen Dome The Jason Smith Show with Mike Carmon.
But the Chargers with a huge victory over the Broncos
thirty four to twenty seven. Usin Herbert a terrific second
half throws the big touchdown pass to Son Haskins, who

(38:05):
scrambles in from thirty four yards out to clinch it.
What does this mean now for the rest of the playoff?
Chase Well joining us on the hotline NFL on Fox
Inside are extraordinary? Jay Glazer? Jay, what's happening? But how
are you tonight?

Speaker 4 (38:19):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (38:19):
I thought Jay was ready? Oh I thought he was ready, Tyger,
He's not ready yet. I did not say he's ready yet,
but I thought he was ready. Now he's ready? All right?

Speaker 3 (38:26):
Now do that big intro again.

Speaker 1 (38:28):
It's NFL on Fox's Chase Glazzer. Here you go. That's that.
That's good.

Speaker 3 (38:37):
That's better.

Speaker 1 (38:37):
Yeah, what's happening, buddy?

Speaker 2 (38:39):
How are you Jay?

Speaker 4 (38:42):
I'm already ready to be I'm already ready?

Speaker 1 (38:46):
Oh man? So hey, this game goes from it looks
like Sean Payton the masterclass the Broncos in the first half,
and all of a sudden, the Chargers pull out a huge,
gritty win, probably their signature win under Harbaugh. So far,
what do you take away from this big Chargers win?

Speaker 4 (39:02):
Well? I take away that, you know, obviously, Jim Harbrook's
changed the culture over there, and he's getting these guys
to believe that you know this. You you said gritty,
like they made great halftime adjustments. They're brought into his culture, like, hey,
we could get our bucks with in the first half
and make an adjustment the second half and just come
out and fight harder. And and you're kind of believing

(39:22):
what they're what they're selling, and they did. They bought in.
They're believing and Targets are a tough team, and you
charge are one of those teams that is you get them,
they're still but they're still building what the roster is
gonna end up being. But there's still one of those
teams if you get them in the players, you're like,
I've rather than not have them on my on my
schedule in the playoffs.

Speaker 3 (39:42):
Yeah, I mean, look at what happened with Tampa and
then certainly the first half year to be able to
go back to as you've dubbed it, the culture of
violence with Gus Edwards in the second half. It wasn't
happening early, but sure as hell happened late.

Speaker 1 (39:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (39:55):
Absolutely. You know it's so funny too. It just you know,
I had Jim Hart about my podcast earlier this year,
and one of the funnier things he said to me
said he loves Justin Herbert. Obviously, he said Justin Herbert
he could play defensive end. I'm like, come on, dude,
he goes. I'm like, you mean what he goes? No,
I mean he can play defensive end. Like he's that
big an athletic construct. But he that he has this

(40:18):
signal where and obviously you know, you guys know I
trained Derwin James and talked to Derwin about him. He goes,
he just makes you. He just makes you feel like
you believe in yourself so much. Jim makes you believe
in yourself so much. And man, he times to just
buy it in. And I think, but Jim Harball we're
seeing now is a different Jim Harbll. We saw his

(40:38):
first go around in the NFL. I think he's way
more like secure Jim Harbaugh as far as like, man,
he won a national championship. He's a champion. You know,
It's just he's just he's a lot. He's just a
fun character to be around. Man.

Speaker 1 (40:54):
Now, the flip side of this, obviously the Broncos lose,
but this is a season that I don't think had
many Broncos. Those fans are coming. They're still in the
driver's seat for the playoffs at nine and six. I mean,
this has been some kind of push by Sean Payton,
who this is also still not nearly the Broncos team
you expect him to see once he gets it all
loaded up.

Speaker 4 (41:12):
Oh, absolutely not. And that's the thing. They don't really
but they don't have the weapons that you know, they're
obviously that he would like to have to build around
to have a whole off season now where he doesn't
have a bunch of deadtop money for the rest of
Wilson deal and uh and some other deals also to
go out and free agency to build again through the draft.

(41:33):
One thing I'll say this about Sewn Seawn is probably
the best coach in the NFL when it comes to
an eye for personnel, Like his eye for personnels is different.
I remember back in New Orleans he got up and
he bet everybody how great They're like, hey, in the

(41:53):
second round, we're going to get this running back named
Alvin Kamara and he's going to be an All Pro
And he actually like bet guy in the County department.
But it's like he really did. And this is the
same guy also who was trying to trade up for
Patrick Mahomes without anybody knowing while Drew Brees was still
his quarterback, but he with bow Knicks. I mean he

(42:14):
had bow Knicks. Who was after they had one on
one visit after his personal workout, and he knew it
back then. He's like, this is my guy, the guy
to the point I said on Foxing uble Something a
couple of weeks ago, I said, look, Sean's crazy and
he comes up with crazy ideas. But one of the
crazy ideas he came to me with was like, Hey,
I'm actually I'm thinking of because I want to show

(42:36):
people that he was my guy along was never J J. McCarthy.
There's nobody else has always been. So I'm thinking, how
about this for an idea? And this is how Sean talks. Hey, hey, listen,
hear me out. Okay, to hear me out.

Speaker 6 (42:51):
How about I'm going to fly out to where Bow
is and when it's our turn on the clock, I'm
gonna knock on the door and he's gonna say, hey,
I'm selecting you Bow next first round.

Speaker 4 (43:03):
I'm like, Sean, no, you can't do that. You're like
it's just He's like, no, I why not. I'm like, well,
I don't know, why not? He sounds crazy to me
right now, but you know, I'm not sure why not,
but it just sounds crazy. But he comes up with
these crazy ideas. But he's like the point was, He's like,

(43:24):
I want people to know this was my guy. He
just I forever want people to know this was not
like bone nick fella on my lap. Forever to know
he was my guy, sreams our private workout. That's why
I had pegged and you know person who was like
I said, he just maybe he's really a he's a
little evil genius.

Speaker 3 (43:46):
Yeah, I like that David Baker twist of things. I'm
knocking on your door. You're going to the Hall of.

Speaker 4 (43:50):
Fame, all right, But I'm my god, I'm like, god,
you can't do that. He's like why. I'm like, I
don't know. I'm gonna let me think about this for
a little bit. But he does come up with some
great crazy ideas and like like listen when when he
was with the Saints and they were playing the Colts

(44:13):
in the Super Bowl, he actually had this guy, Mike
Warrensteter was a legend or he going by all the billboards, okay,
of where the Colts were going to travel to practice,
and he had them by the billboards and make him
Saints billboards. Like who that Shaw just comes up with

(44:36):
different things, man, he's.

Speaker 3 (44:37):
Crazy psychological warfare.

Speaker 1 (44:39):
I love it, you know. And I would have loved
that idea, that bon Nicks idea. But you know what
would have happened, Jay, you put that out there, the karma.
He'd have been driving to bon Nix's house and he
had a phone call. Hey, yeah, sorry, but so and
so just traded up and drafted bon Nicks in your
car go back to the airport.

Speaker 4 (44:54):
Well, he was, I will tell you this. He was
so neurotic the day of the draft and I think
I told you guys in the past. He got said
bad information that the Rams were going to take Bonucks
and I'm like, and you know, got to the point
where even I was like I talked to Seanay about it,
and I was like, hey, man, can I tell him
that you're a doc like cause he's like, I don't

(45:15):
want them to lose draft picks. He's like, yeah, you
could do it, like you know, normally these guys hold
the Colts to the best. He's like, we have nothing
to do it. I'm like, I don't want this guy
losing draft picks. Think of that, They've got to jump
up and you're trying to. They thought the Rams were
going to move up for Bonnicks and it wasn't even
that was never a They never looked at Bonicks and

Speaker 4 (46:18):
About Ballers real quick in Shompington. I'm literally on set
of Ballers one season and they were supposed to do
a scene. I think it was a Brady or Bellis
something they lost somebody, and they lost the big name
like a Brady or belichicked like, oh man, Jake, we
need somebody to fill the scene. The ballers like they're
trying to. It's a free agency visit for John David

for him to go. Who was said Sean Payton. They said,
you think he's doing I go show to fly himself
here in two seconds? Then a ballers. I'm here at
a set of ballers. They need a coach to do
the scene.

Speaker 1 (47:07):
He Jay Glazer our guest and AAJ of course obviously
the Unbreakable podcast. You have going on part two of
your podcast with Rosie this week, and you tell a
story about a chicken sandwich that I think people really
need to hear.

Yes this week, I had to go through several agents, Yeah,
marketing representatives. She rocked an nil deal.

Speaker 3 (47:33):
With the Chicken place.

Speaker 4 (47:36):
It was my lovely bride, Rosie and you know her
birthday was two weeks show and we aired the first
part there. My birthday's next week's we're wearing the second
part here, and it's just how you find love later life.
And you know, look the the two of us again.
I'm turning one of my turns fifty five, right, and
I'm not going to say her age was she's fround
my age, which is crazy, and she had never married.

(48:01):
I had a very short one, and you know, a
lot of the issues the two of us were just
never felt worthy of it. You never felt worthy of
being loved. And she's kind of sabotaged things, and you're
waiting for everything to wait. You're get in relationships, so
you think or doomed for the start because they're supposed
to be due because you're not worthy of it. So

(48:23):
I take Rosie with me to Thailand on his Mind, Body, Spirit,
you know journey. I'm training more time in the jungle
air and work with these monks. I'm learning breathwork and meditation.
And this monk sits with Rosie and she says, you
know what's the biggest problem. She said, Well, I just
don't feel worthy of being loved. She said, okay, well,
let me just ask you this. As Month says to her,

(48:44):
it's literally a monk in the middle of.

Speaker 2 (48:47):
Another movie.

Speaker 4 (48:49):
What's your So, what do you mean? Says? I just
think like people look at me like, ah, she's not
worthy of it. This schirl doesn't deserve it. And that's
how I feel when I we even want to walk
into places. That's how Rosie felt. So the lady said, well,
let me answer a question. What's your favorite food, like
your guilty pleasure food. She said, well, it's the place
in Santa Monica col R and D that there's a
chicken sandwich and there I love this chicken sandwich. When

(49:12):
you eat chicken sandwich, do you think everybody's looking at
you thinking you shouldn't have the chicken sandwich? So you're like, no,
what would anybody care about my chicken sandwich? You think
the person sitting next to you is looking at you, going, oh,
she doesn't deserve that chicken sandwich. Now, And they said, Rosie,
your life is the chicken sandwich. Nobody's looking at you

(49:32):
that you don't deserve this love the same reason you
deserve to just enjoy whatever food you want. You deserve
this love. And it just change everything from Rosie. And
the point is there's so many barriers. We all put
up their own minds to hold ourselves back from our dreams,
from love, from whatever it is. And it's not true.

(49:55):
We create these monsters, and we create these stories and
these rackets in our heads. It's just not true. We
just need somebody sometimes to give us a little push
to get out of it. So this week with Rosie
and I, we come up with twenty things of what
we did to fight love later in life. And you
could be in your twenty thirties, forties, fifty sixty, whatever,

(50:18):

even if you are with somebody and I'm You're probably
