of the twenty twenty and twenty twenty seven off season
champion New York Jets. They've already won this coming off
season and the next off season banner ceremonies this weekend
at MetLife Stadium. We've already won. We do what listen.
(01:15):
We are the Patriots of the off season, when the
pesky games come, they give us trouble. But the off season,
when there's no games, we are dominant. Man, we are
a dynasty. Dude. It's only appropriate that it happens on
an election day where all you have to do is sell,
hope and change. Yeah, what else is behind the door?
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Change.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
What about when things actually have to be No, it
doesn't matter. We have now. We have now. Yeah, we
have been now, and we look assets. What are they?
Giant question marks? Possibility? You know, could be an edge rusher,
could could be a forty five hundred yard throwing quarterback,
could be no idea doesn't matter. The NFL trade deadline
(01:57):
belongs to the Jet whis if you had any doubt
when it's something off the field that doesn't involve actually
winning and losing a game. The Jets were gonna dominate. Yeah,
but they left one man behind. Well, we'll get to
we'll get to Breese Hall. We'll get to stuff for
week ten with depressions, with sadness. Yeah, sadness take it over.
You know, I'm gonna make a make a well I
(02:18):
think enough people have seen it now. But like Mash,
like the entire run of the of the of the
episode of the seasons of Mash, one of the greatest
comedies ever on television. Like Clinger tries to get out
of the Army like it's a running gag for like
all twelve seasons. Clinger wants out now, he wants out.
He wants out right, He's trying to go Section eight.
(02:40):
He's trying to go everything. He's trying to get out,
trying to get out, trying to get out. When Mash
ends and everybody else gets out, he stays in Korea
like that's Breece Hall. Hey wait a minute, wait it ended.
Everybody else left. I've wanted to get out for a while.
How am I the one staying I'm the best offensive
player that was available at the trade deadline? How did
(03:00):
no one want a pony up a third round pick
for me? Just like uh Clagger, Uh glue guy. Although
he doesn't know it at the time, he doesn't recognize
it and had that bit of introspect. I'll tell you,
uh this trade deadline. This there's a couple of reasons why.
Like number one, obviously the two biggest stories of the day,
(03:20):
The Jets trade Sauce Garden to the Colts and they
trade Quentin Williams of the Dallas Cowboy. Yeah, broke that
kid's heart. I told you last night. Yeah, I gotta
ask you about that. Frostburg, we talked about the deadline.
You've out of know what sauce you just said, Sauce Gardener.
So I think either you're like the new Adam Schefter
or you put it out there like you either knew
(03:41):
something or you put it out there in the universe.
It was probably just going with the one guy that
hurt your soul the most. No, that's right that I mean,
whether he does still or or not. Like he's like
all the quarterbacks there that you loved or you love,
you loved and then as soon as they were gone,
it's like they never existed to you. No, well it
be nice to have. Yeah, yet you you internalize every
(04:04):
loss and remember every sequence like I don't know, like
chapter and verse of your your favorite thing. Uh. But
for quarterbacks, you've always had the ability to just say
beat it. Yeah with Sauce Gardener, I mean, I don't
know that it'll be as quick and easy. Yeah, an excision.
I gotta be honest with you, and look, uh we
(04:24):
we we got a lot of clubs in our bag
on this stuff. The Sauce Gardener trade. The Jets get
two first round picks back for Sauce Gardener. Okay, like,
let's talk about this one right now. This is the
shocking one. Sauce Guarter didn't even know. He just tweeted out,
Hey been real New York. Now I get to go
to Indianapolis. Okay, I was not upset, Like when I
woke up and I turned my phone on, the first
(04:45):
thing I got was a text on Frost But that
just said Sauce. And I'm saying, dude, why the blank
did you see even say his name? Last night? Nobody
else was talking. You could have said Breecee like you
said Breee Hall the entire time, but you said Sauce Guarden.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
No.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
I mean, we talked about every everybody that was any
value from the Jets we'd brought up. Nobody mentioned Sauce Excess. No,
That's what I mean, Like nobody else start sure, nobody
else said that, except why did you say Sauce? Like
I'm thinking right now, did did did something? Did did
Jim Harbaugh tell Frostburg something that did something? I mean,
I I don't know, like and something like we we
could accept it, Breeze Hall Quinnin all these guys know,
(05:21):
but you said sauce Gardener, and sauce Gardner got traded.
All right, Schefty, I'm gonna call you Chefty from now.
You're shifty. But see, he gives you nothing on anything
else you've asked him about football wise, going on many
a year at this point, I want to find that
from last week, no information, but says he just says
sauce Gardener. I said, sauce Guarden, it's not getting traded,
Come on, man. And then sauce Gardner got traded. I
(05:42):
think anybody was available if the if the price was right. Yeah,
and that's the thing, and and and and obviously look
for all this, all the Jets gave Way talent. The
Jets stink. They're one and seven. They're completely starting over.
It's new quarterback next year, it's new everything. We're paying
guys money that by the time the Jets are good,
I mean, it doesn't really matter. Like quin Williams is
(06:02):
gonna be twenty eight years old and sauce Gardener. I
was not upset about the sauce Gardener trade. I'm being
one hundred percent honest with you, because when he got
signed to an extension, Okay, they kept sauce Gardener, but
quite honestly, sauce Gardner, he's not the player he was
his rookie year. His rookie year was phenomenal, and and
remember how good like he's gonna be the next Revus.
(06:25):
The second year not quite as good as the first year,
but still really good. Last year not that great, and
then this year not as good as last year. It's
like when when when movie sequels like Pirates of the
Caribbean started coming out, you had Pirates of the Caribbean,
then you had part two, Part three parts and each
movie gets a little bit worse than the last one.
Sauce Gardener was not the same player, right. You can
(06:47):
look at all the metrics of him and see how
what the quarterback's rating is on passes. They target sauce
Gardener for I've seen him get beat a lot this year.
But the big deal is that in the last few years,
the hand fighting that sauce Gardner could get away with
his his rookie year in the league, they changed how
they call that, sure, and they they're not gonnay. They
don't let players do that as much anymore, and that's
(07:09):
a lot of his game. And so yeah, he's never
really found a way around that, not be able to
use his hands much because I remember last year we
went into the beginning of the season when they had
to play the Vikings in London and he got whistled
for like three pass interference penalties, all holding penalties, all
with his hands on the receiver. They don't let you
get away with that anymore. And he never was able
(07:31):
to adjust to the rule change. So when they signed
a big contract, I'm like, all right, I hope this
is gonna be good. I hope it's good. And this
turned out to be his worst year. So now going
to the Colts where they're gonna use them different ways.
I don't think they're gonna use him the shutdown guy.
They'll probably use them. You know, they play a little
bit more zone, so its a zone corner. Maybe that
takes a more advantage of his of his of his
(07:53):
athleticism and his ability, but he wasn't that guy. So
to trade away Sauce Gardner and to get two first
round picks and get out from all that money, they
just signed her to that extension, and they made it
so much that if we trade him, it's an easier
thing for us to do. We're not paying him a
lot of money up front. We're not doing this. So
I went from not upset to downright excited about it.
(08:17):
Now look Sauce Gardner came to the Jets. He was terrific.
He was a great ambassador for the team. He did
so many great things off the field. He was just
a great person to have on the Jets. But by
and large, the Jets want to win football games, and
they brought in a couple of young corners this year
they liked. They got Brownlee before the deadline, which is
a great trade, which made Michael Carter expendable. They traded
(08:37):
him away to the Eagles. So I'm being serious. I
was not upset at the Sauce Gardener trade because I
thought he's not worth that money. He's not worth the
money that they're going to have to pay him the
next three years when every year is worse than the
last one. He peaked as a rookie. He's that guy
in high school. You knew that seventeen was like, man,
(08:57):
this kid any girl he wants, he gets anything. He's great.
But then you see him at a reunion like ten
years later. It's what happened? He meant, No, what do
you mean? What happened? Yeah, I put on a few pounds.
When I'm still working at the movie theater. Everything is
still cool, still driving the trans am that I drove,
you know, eight years ago. Yeah, still great, man, still great.
That's kind of you know. Okay, well, Sauce. Sauce peaked
(09:18):
as a rookie. I'm not upset, I am. I went
from not being upset to being excited about the trade
because clearly, okay, we got to go in on something
else for next that whole time, were you envisioning Matt
Dillon and Beautiful Girls the Legend's dead Birdie? No, I was,
but the legend can still blank you up. No, I
was thinking of actually that. What was that episode from
(09:38):
Friends where Monica runs into her crush from high school
chipper ship called they called the chipped the guy with
the motorcycle, and they ran into him all those years later,
and he was still doing the same things. Where do
you live now? You know where I live? My parents
live over, Like they're still living with his parents. You know.
For some they'd like to like it to be, what
do you drive now? I still have the motor of
the motorcycle the chipper, right, you would call, So that's
(10:02):
kind of what I thought of. But I look at
this right and obviously Jets fans and I joke because
there was this kid that went viral and crying as
his dad told him when he came home from school.
But it's that reality of being able to look in
the mirror, and it's a very adult thing to do
for the Jets in this perspectives, like, we like this guy, clearly,
the city likes him, the fan base loves the great nickname,
(10:23):
a lot of merchandising and marketing opportunities, but the reality is,
are you winning any more games with him at that salary?
Speaker 2 (10:32):
No?
Speaker 1 (10:33):
No, no, it prohibits you from doing one and seven
and stink with him. We can be one and seven
and stink and have f money freed up to get
better without him. But that's been the argument I've had
with so many of these other moves. Go back to
the Micah Parsons move. We'll get to the Cowboys and
their their acts today and where they go forward, But
for the Jets, you can get two number ones and
(10:54):
maybe a guy and ad Ni Mitchell. We still have
no idea what he is. Right, he was hurt last
year with Ann that he Richardson throwing to him. We
know he now knows where the goal line is? Ah
does he? That makes him a perfect Jet? Not knowing
where the goal line is makes him. I'm gonna go
out and say that he got a lesson learn as
a Jets receiver. How often do you really have to
worry about where the goal line at? Well but your home?
(11:15):
Come on, you know what I'm selling? Hope and change here.
Where's the stay with me? Where's the middle of the field?
Where do we usually punt? That's how well do you
operate between the twenties? That's what we need to know
between the twenties? How often? How well do you operate
between our own goal line and our own thirty yard line?
That's That's how We're gonna run some routes. I'm gonna
start you at the hash mark. Let's see how you
(11:36):
navigate this this territory. No, all of it to say
with the Jets is recognizing all right, you're you're abysmal
and you have you are one of the teams that
as dismal as your you have two great assets that
a lot of other teams can use. So go into
the marketplace, which we've seen a bunch of deals already consummated.
(11:58):
But go into the marketplace. And this is why it's
still surprising that nobody came up to get bresee Hall.
I guess the Chiefs offered a fourth is the one
of the reports later this afternoon. But other than that,
it's like you can go and get a full reset.
Now are you gonna do it properly? I don't know.
Oh no, No, we're the Jets a whole. That's why
(12:18):
the best part is now between now and the draft,
because everything is still possible that maybe we get it right.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
I've always talked about the coaches from A to B,
B two C. Your GM right now has gone A
to B. He's giving you hope as look at everything
that's on the board of what we might be able
to do. And then you can start imagining some of
these names. Right if you watch some college football, Oh,
we got three first round picks. We could get him
and him. Maybe we could parlay these two guys together
(12:46):
because they already know each other, and you start getting
all excitable about that, but we still have several months
of the regular season and a long off season to
get But that's you know what you won today exactly,
and that's why you realize the Jets are like the
play hades Town. Okay, hades Town, a play on the
Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurriticy, where Orpheus and Riticy.
(13:08):
Of course you know you're reticy following him back and
he looks back when he's not supposed to, when Youriticy
disappears right and goes back to hell. Sorry spoiler that
that's all and never look I mean, Duff McKagan sang
all about it. And the whole thing with the play
is that you know, and they come to the end
and it it ends very sadly, right with Orpheus losing
your Riticyriticy leaves. It's like, wow, it's a real downer.
(13:28):
And Hermes, who is the narrator of the play, comes
out and says, hey, we still sing a sad song
all the time. We still sing a sad song, and
we think about it, and why do we sing this
sad song. We sing the sad song because maybe the
next time things will change and they reset the they
reset the play and goes back to the very beginning
when Orpheus meets you Riticy for the first time. So
(13:49):
it's like we sing a sad song over and over
again in hopes that at some point the next time,
maybe it changes. That's what it's like being a Jets fan.
We sing a sad song over and over again and
hoping that maybe the next time it'll change. Maybe this
time Aaron Glenn doesn't look back and see Sauce Garter
behind him, and there go Sauce Carter. We sing a
sad song over and over again, hoping that it'll change
(14:11):
the next time. You ever go back and watch that
Thanksgiving Day game hoping the butt fumble didn't exist, or
maybe one of those AFC title games there. Maybe yeah,
at some point now. But that's that's that's a sad
song over and over again. That's why it's over and
over again. We wait, why do we do it? It's
important We sing the sad song over and over again.
That's what we do.
Speaker 5 (14:30):
Yeah, over and over. Maybe next time it'll be different.
Maybe this time we'll get it right. Moode, don't look back, mooched,
look ahead.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
To catch go get him he had no voice left.
He sang so loudly today to you guys blowing the picks.
Oh yeah, hey, the next time, maybe we get it right.
Next time, we get it right. Exit out bout of Frasca,

(16:29):
and really days like this when it comes to the offseason, Okay,
the Jets are the Patriots of when you don't have
to play games. We have all kinds of trophy cases
at one Jets drive there, Hey, offseason champions, Aaron Rodgers
the two off seasons with him, off season champions, We
had like three or four other ones. Like I would say,
in the last ten years, the Jets have been off
season champions probably four or five times. Shooting this clinches
(16:54):
it for now this offseason and next offseason when we
got three first round picks. Yeah, at least theoretically, I
mean this does I mean you can at least start
painting the murals do they still have a giant picture
of Rogers with the flag, because it really was a
seminal that was the last great and that wasn't even
a game, that was right before the game. But it
all comes back to the general philosophy of I mean,
(17:15):
find your wins man, like the show is today, the
actions are today, and you can tell the good people
of New York, New Jersey and globally your fan base.
We're building towards the future where we recognize that the
today is is not so bright. So here's a cookie,
and we made some trades, and look with the with
the sauce Gardener, I mean it works out pretty well.
(17:37):
I mean, what's the dead Caps under twenty million dollar? Yes,
they did, they did. That's a pretty good contact, right
that math, That formula worked out for them. Now, before
we get to the Cowboys, that the obviously Breecee Hall
was a big deal today and the fact that Breece
Hall is still a Jet is an epic fail because
I'll tell you what the Jets do well, right, A
plus on the sauce Gardener trade. Right again, a plus
(17:59):
on that trade. But it's an epic fail by everybody
because at the end of the day. The Jets are
not gonna have him next year. He is wanted out.
He was love, he loved He's the emoji king, right,
Breesall loves putting out emojis of different things, and I
want to get out. He wanted out, right, So the
Jets had to trade him. They had to trade him.
(18:21):
And at the end, when it's two minutes or a
minute before the deadline and nobody's coming up with more
than a fourth round pick, guess what, you accept a
fourth round pick? Right? You need to do that because
this year doesn't matter, don't I mean, don't you here
and try to tell me we're selling you on playing
for twenty twenty five. No, I don't want to win
anymore games. We won one. We're not gonna be We're
not gonna go with zero wins, which is really incredibly embarrassing.
(18:43):
I want to pick number.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
One right now.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
You're chasing New Orleans and Cleveland. Trade trade Resaw. He's
gonna help us win games, right, Like, I don't care
about this anymore. You trade Breese Hall to get something,
right at this point, a fourth round pick, Yeah, that's
a starter, or it's something to help you move up
to get some in the third round. It's another asset
that you're not gonna have piece it together. If I
thought he was going to stay after this year, I
(19:05):
would say okay, because Garrett Wilson wants to stay. That's
why they got He wants to stay. He said, this
is my place, this is where I want to turn
it around. He's been a great leader. Right, I want
to stay. I want to turn it around. But Breecee
Hall wants out. So at the end of that, so
at the end you had to trade him and you didn't.
Epic fail by the Jets, also epic fail by every
other team who wants to say we're a Super Bowl
(19:26):
contender and wouldn't trade a third round pick, because that's
ostensibly what it came down to is that Jets were
holding fast for a third round pick for Breese Hall,
not a fourth round pick. We said it last night,
tweet went viral today. The Chiefs are insane. If they
don't trade a third round doesn't make any sense, right,
are you trying to win the Super Bowl or not?
And it's not just the Chiefs need to run. Other
teams need a running back that doesn't need to come
(19:47):
off the field. Passing game, running game, He's tough, he's fast,
he's physical. Breecee Hall was a terrific running back. Are
you trying to win or not? You won't. You won't
say all right, Hey, a third round pick is going
to get us the best offensive player out there at
the trade deadline, and the Chiefs didn't want to do it.
Nobody wanted to do that. You want to trade a
third round pick? I mean, are you trying to win
(20:07):
the super Bowl or not? And I don't mean just
a team that hey, we're contenders and maybe Breese Hall
makes us better. No, if you're at the top of
the food chain and think you can win a super Bowl,
how are you not going out there saying, okay, well,
all right, we'll suck it up. Third round pick. It's
gonna be at the end of the third round, so okay,
third round pick for Bristol. Epic failed by the teams
that were running back away from being able to say
(20:29):
we are a this is gonna make us not just
a super Bowl hopeful, but we're a super Bowl heavyweight now.
And the Chiefs are the top of that list because
you know they need a running back and they wouldn't
come off a five. They wouldn't come off a fourth
round pick. Like, I want to hear something crazy, which
is how this trade didn't didn't come out. I gotta
hear something absolutely insane and it is the Jets, so
hold out for that, and I want to hear something
absolutely insane why this trade didn't happen, because this was
(20:52):
the guy who was supposed to go. This was the
number one offensive player out there at the deadline, and
you're gonna trade a third round pick for really aktual
throwing pick. Yeah, no, that's the curiosity, right, Pa Checko
has been you know what he is at this point.
Kareem Hunt not a kid. He's been in the league
a very long time. Solid at times, pretty good red
zone guy as we've seen the last few weeks, but
(21:14):
overall not someone that you're saying, all right, here's fifteen
to twenty touches week in week out. You're elevating guys
off the practice squad whatever else. It's a position of need,
without question, and as an extra safety valve for Patrick Mahomes,
absolutely huge. You know, we've seen proof of concept now Chicago.
For a minute, that was some of the talk. If
(21:36):
they were serious maybe a running back. Well, all of
a sudden, you got, you know, your seventh round pick
running like the Hulcomania in the eighties, So like, all right,
two hundred total yards. We don't need that anymore DeAndre
Swift and he will be just fine. You look at
the Chargers, you know what are we talking at this point?
With Joalt going down for the year? The decisions they made.
(21:59):
They bring in in an offensive lineman, but Vidal has
been strong in spots. So do you just stand pat there? Right?
One of the other questions that you might have had
coming into the day and how quickly does Hampton get
back as you roll through? But for the other contenders,
you've got your your main guy. I'm not saying that
(22:19):
you're gonna make a massive trade to bring in a
guy for depth for one year. Why would you not
right give yourself an insurance card for a mid round pick?
Forget it, third round picks? Nothing when we talk about this,
because you still have to go and make it. And
that's where the the onus is on your jets going forward.
But if you're one of these contending squads, aren't you
(22:43):
trying to maximize twenty twenty five? Still? I mean, yes,
you're not looking ahead. You're like, all right, we'll run
with what we got and maybe it breaks right, particularly
if you got a position. And the Chiefs are just
really the poster child for this based on the way
that backfield is, or at least it's it's one thing
if hey, we're asking for a lot for a long
(23:05):
period of time. It's one thing to say, hey, we're
we're a five hundred ish team and we think maybe
Breese Hall makes us a little bit better. It's different
for teams like the Chiefs, right, And we use them
for an example because that, hey, everybody says they're great
super Bowl team, super Bowl team. They can't run the football.
Can't run the football and Mick Mahomes is your most
effective runner. And when when you're a running back, that's
(23:28):
the one position that you can jump to another team
and right away you can, you can, you can you
You have to make a big difference right away, right
run the ball, chase the quarterback if you're an edge rusher,
a running back, if you have any kind of talent.
That's why coming out of college football that these guys
can succeed right away. Breeze Hall can go into any
(23:49):
type of system and and succeed right away. And if
you and and like the Chiefs who are like, Okay,
that's gonna we have all the other things we need. No,
we're not gonna part with the third round pick. We're
not gonna because it's really a third round pick is
too valuable. Third round pick is two valuable for a
team that's trying to win and maximizing the window right now,
right and let's just say, you get Breece Hall, you
(24:10):
go win the Super Bowl. Breese Hall says, I want
to stay. I want to stay. Let's figure something out here.
Let's go. I'll do a two year deal. Pay me
a lot of money for two years. Let's do it.
All of a sudden. Now, hey, that's a third round pick.
That's kind of worth it because you had Breeze Hall,
you won the Super Bowl, or you made it really far.
He wants to stay. Now, you have a great running
back who was twenty four years old. He got him
(24:30):
for the prime of his career. Like, I don't get
how teams shied away from that, especially with the success
you saw the Eagles have last year by running with
Saquon Barkley, who carried them to winning the Super Bowl.
I mean, you know it's a third round pick. Yeah,
you know the other team that would have made sense Pittsburgh.
They can't run the football. They're third from the bottom.
They need any juice in that offense. Right, you watch
(24:53):
even this win against Indianapolis, huge win, a ton of turnovers,
defense shows up, you know, hang a star on it.
This is one they rallied around and made the big place.
But offensively, what were they at? Two hundred and eight
total yards or something like that. Jalen Warren had two touchdowns,
that's great, point blank range, ran for I think thirty
one yards on twelve carries. Like they've got no semblance
(25:16):
of a continuity on offense. Reese Hall solves that they
have multiple third round picks. Yeah, for the twenty twenty
six draft right now. It really it baffles me that
no one said, okay, we'll hold out to the end.
But when it gets down to it, if you're not
taking all right, well sweeten, and it will give you
a third As it sits here, they've got three threes
and two two fours that they could have dealt to
(25:38):
go bolster that offense. What do you got Frostburg does
Breese Hall have any illegal troubles. Uh no, he does not. Well,
that's why the Chiefs were out. I see where you're
going with that. I see where you're going. They looked
in and found it. He was, Oh, he's clean, he's clean.
We don't we don't need him, he's clean. He decided
he didn't fit in. He's clean, he's clean. He's clean.
Now the Quinn Williams right for the Cowboys for a
(26:01):
couple of seconds, I know the Cowboys are are are
taking it from everybody right now, from every pundit about
this trade and did they overpay for Quinn Williams one
hundred percent? Right? First round pick, second round pick and
a player for a guy who's twenty eight. And let's
face it, it's easier to you can kind of go
(26:22):
through and get new defensive tackles, like it's a position
that you can restock in the draft and free agency
pretty easily. He's a guy that wanted out. The Cowboys overpaid,
And I understand the aspect of well, if you're counting
everything saying so, the Cowboys basically traded away the first
round and the second round pick they got that they
(26:43):
got for Micah Parsons. So when the really in theory
they traded Micah Parsons for Quinn Williams and a second
round pick. Like, I understand it doesn't work out. I
understand the Cowboys overpaid. I get all of this, but
I love the move by Dallas because this was something
that coming off this awful game last night, where the
(27:05):
Cowboys should have been where, hey, we're five hundred, our
offense is great, let's get some help. It was easy
for Jerry Jones to say, yeah, sorry, but Michael Parson's
trade happened. Can't go back and and fix it and
say well we'll go back and get him back again.
Can't do it anymore. Jerry Jones made two trays right.
Logan Wilson went, remember Jason Lockingford joined us last night,
that I see he's gonna be gone to now. He
(27:27):
is somebody that would when you lose your job on
the Bengals defense, that that's a big red Flaggers boy,
the Bengals cancel. How much of that is how much
you can play or can't play versus you and a
philosophical yeah with the coordinator, but going to get these
players and quinnin Williams is a really good player. Right,
he is a Pro Bowl level player. He made the
(27:47):
All Pro a couple of years ago. He's three time
Pro Bowler. He is still a terrific player who wanted
to change the scenery. He wanted out. This was a
great move by the Cowboys de brit Did you overpay? Yeah?
But if all of a sudden he starts wreck and
havoc and the Cowboys defense looks better, do you really
care the you prend? No, I waited. He makes us
and he's gonna be really good for the next couple
(28:08):
of years. Right, twenty eight years old. By the time
he gets to thirty, you never know what defensive lineman.
But he's a really, really good player. So it's not
like you went and got a guy at the end
of his career. Say you got a guy who's really
Did you overpay? Yes? But the Jets won, And I'm
telling you the Cowboys one here too, because they went
out and told Dak and CD and Schottenheimer, Hey, don't worry,
(28:28):
I'm gonna go out and get guys for you, And
he went out and got two pretty good players. Now
we see how they play, obviously, but this is a
big jolt of adrenaline for the Cowboys and Jerry Jones
saying I got you. You may not like what I
do all the time, but I got you. And here's
the best defensive player that I could get on the market,
something we really need because you know, I just discovered
a month ago we got to stop the run. So
now here's another guy I brought in for you. So
(28:50):
I like the Cowboys guts. I like what they did,
even though they overpaid.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
In the end.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
When you're looking at Jerry Jones, and he had some
pretty stark ad missions things he's never really publicly said
about where he is in the continuum of this mortal
coil and all of that stuff talking about mistakes made
and everything else. Is that you're still not giving up
on this squad because you're not dead in the NFC,
(29:16):
even with that crushing loss on Monday Night football, I
mean the division. Most of your contenders at the back
end the playoff in that sphere, they all lost this
week or they certainly have visible warts and things that
you can exploit. So for Jerry Jones to buy in
(29:38):
and Dak Prescott was very excited about the news that
they go and get Williams gives them a jolt, like
they've got no offense and no defensive identity whatsoever. Guess
what a little bit of pressure up front, maybe those
back end guys aren't left on an island as they pitched. Now, Now,
the move he shouldn't have done was bland. If you
want to get very free, but you can't go back
right and Iberflus has to deal with what the personnel
(30:01):
he's got. But they'll be in games. And I appreciate
the fact that he just didn't kick the can down
the road saying we'll figure it out in twenty six.
Like if they're wrong, then at least he bet in.
And if you're a Cowboys fan, he did something to
try to save the second half of the season. Time
now to find out what's trending in the wide world
of sports. So someone who's been called the Jerry Jones
(30:23):
of Fox Sports Radio. You may not like what he
does every day, but once in a while he'll do
something you like. It's Steve Disaga.
Speaker 4 (30:31):
Uh yeah, don't have a comeback for that one. Treading lightly,
the New York Jets traded defensive Backsauce Gardner the Colts
for two first round draft choices and wide receiver ad
Mitchell Gardner was Rookie of the Year in twenty twenty two.
The Jets deal defensive tackle Quinn Williams to Dallas for
a first and second rounder. The Cowboys also acquired linebacker
(30:53):
Logan Wilson from the Bengals for a seventh rounder. Dallas
is on a bye this week, losing last night to
the Cardinals by the way on a Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Bursett.
We'll start again Sunday at Seattle. Kyler Murray's bent out
with a sprain foot has been limited in practice. The
Seahawks picked up wide receiver Rashid Shaheed from New Orleans.
The Chargers got offensive lineman Trevor Penning from the Saints.
(31:14):
Both starting tackles for the Chargers are out for the year.
The Jaguars acquired wide receiver Jacoby Myers from the Raiders.
The NFL trade deadline was today. The Falcon sign kicker
Zaane Gonzales and cut kicker John Parker Romo, who missed
a late extra point in Sunday's one point loss. Green
Bay plays tight end Tucker Craft on injury reserve torn
acl Washington side wide receiver Trailon Burks up from their
(31:37):
practice squad. As wide receiver Luke McCaffrey is on ir
As is defensive back Marshawn Lattimore. Steelers defensive back Jalen
Ramsey will play safety again this week due to Pittsburgh's
injuries and the one game suspension of Washington linebacker Frankie
Luvu was rescinded tonight he'd had another hip drop tackle
and the first college football playoff rankings this evening. The
(32:00):
three are Ohio State, Indiana, and Texas A and M.
All three are undefeated. Selection Sunday is until December. The
seventh Notre Dame right now is number ten, but Texas
and Oklahoma would each be out of the playoff picture
as of now at numbers eleven and twelve because number
fourteen Virginia as ACC champ would get in and unranked
(32:20):
Memphis would get in as the group of fives best.
So the first round at campus sites due to start
with a Friday night game about a week before Christmas.
Then the other three games in the first round would
be on Saturday, the twentieth. We could have a first
round matchup as of now Notre Dame at BYU this
Friday night. Fox TV continues its college football coverage. USC

with consecutive triple doubles since Michael Jordan in the late
nineteen eighties. Bulls are five and oh at home. This
was a battle of five and one teams overall. Bulls
were down twenty four, took their first lead with three

Today was also the first college football playoff poll out
(37:13):
and the bracket as it is right now. You see
the teams at the top Ohio State, Indiana, Texas A
and m Alabama top four and and just for a second,
congratulations Caylen de Bor. It was a month ago everybody
wanted you out that we can't win big games. We
got it once Kaylen Debor's buy out. Guys have a
(37:34):
ty Simpson tattoo somewhere. I mean, just to show you
how things can change in a month. A month ago,
he was the we we gotta get him out. He
can't win anything. Now, oh we're there, we have we
have a we have a buy But I based on
mob mentality, he would have been the first guy in
the call the line of coaches fired. But this is
(37:55):
where the college football play. We talk about this being
the most bananas. Barker's college football seasons is two thousand
and seven. Just enjoy the season, because that's what it is.
It's all over, yeah, because you go back to two
thousand and seven where we got to the end of
the season and it was Kansas or Missouri or West Virginia.
Potentially we're gonna go to the national Championship and play
for the title. Right it was a really weird year.
(38:17):
Now would that have been a game that people really
wanted to see? No, but it would have been bonkers.
That's the downside of what we see right now because
you look at some of what the first round playoff series,
some of the teams that would be in the playoff Memphis,
Texas Tech, Virginia BYU not a lot of teams that
(38:38):
you would say, boy, I gotta get to the TV
and see that game. So it's kind of like in
the NCAA tournament where hey, we love the upsets and
they're great the first couple of days, but eventually you
get to the sweet sixteen, the Elite eight, and you go, okay,
so it's Wisconsin and Liberty. Okay, I guess I'll watch
(38:59):
that game. That's kind that's kind of where we're gonna
pay a little bit when you get to the playoff
with teams like again like still long ways to go,
but like Memphis and Texas Tech Virginia about like the
not the tried and true teams that get you real
excited to watch college football play. But in the end,
it's got the word playoff attached to it, which gets
people excitable, wishing and wanting for that one upset because
(39:22):
unlike March Madness, you don't have to sit around for
days chase it down on your television among multiple options.
See what I did. They're talking about the cable thing
that everybody's all mad about in the streaming services. But
it's a finite number of games, right, We're not talking
about Hey, I gotta watch thirty two of them and
wait for all this chaos to sort it stuff out. No, no, no,
(39:44):
it'll it'll do it pretty quickly here. And there's still
a lot of big games still on the schedule. I mean,
look at Texas trying to get in. They still games
against two top five squads. Right, they're gonna get an
opportunity to play their way in and even starting Friday
when USC plays their way out. Any consideration, we got
that game in our window, Yes, we do excited. All purple.
(40:07):
You have to wear all purple. You have no idea. Okay,
you're gonna do a putty You're gonna here, I'll be
maybe I'll paint my chest. You gotta paint your chest
with a big N on it. I don't think I
can walk around the office like that. I think there's
rules in California, like as a violation. You know what
I found out. You know what the N in Northwestern
stands for. What's knowledge? Nice? Took you a second. I
(40:29):
couldn't believe you said it, because for you, sometimes I wonder.
Speaker 2 (40:34):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (40:35):
Hey man, Key and Anthony scored fifteen. Mellow's kids scored
fifteen for US. Last thon, I' feeling give buy his
tops now card, get a piece of his jersey. Coming
up next More on the NFL trade deadline and a
crazy quarterback story. Next Fox
