in the studio, but we'll take it.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Yeah, excuse the background noise. It seems like yartwork is
persisting to be done. But all good.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Hey man, it's supposed to be eighty on Halloween. How
about that?
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Well, listen, that's the first time it's Halloween's traditionally been
real bad. So I'm glad the kids get the opportunity
to get in there. We'll see how the players perform.
You know, at eighty degrees at night should be perfect
for them. Excuse no excuse not to play fast. Usually
Halloween has been super wet. They got a great opponent
coming in and you know, throughout the past years, the
Jets have kind of led the league in bad weather games.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
I agree, well, the weather's the good news, but the
bad news for Jets fans is their team is two
and six. Why.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
I mean, it's a lot of a lot of reasons
you can point to. I think it's tough. You know,
old Brick is trying to learn the job on the
fly in one of the toughest markets in the league,
and you know, it's impossible to do two things one
hundred percent at the same time. And you know, you
see some slippets, some communication problems, some issues. Every team
in the league is dealing with injuries. But you know,
(01:39):
it's tough when you have to interpret what's going on
and you don't have a guy that's there, you know,
front and center. That's why it's always tough. And I
always tip my hat to guys that are coordinators and
head coaches at the same time. To do it for
the first time and learn on the fly is a
It's a tough job.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
What's the most pressing issue for Jeff Aullbrick as he
tries to get his team prepared to play in a
short week against the Houston Texas, a team who is
six and two. A top THEFC self and a contender
in this conference, and the Jets are dealing with a
number of issues, whether it be special teams, defense or offense.
(02:18):
Right now, what's most pressing for him belief?
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Belief is the most pressing because a team that's motivated
and energized to have belief that they're playing for something,
you know, it's a powerful team or who knows. Maybe
now at this point, you don't have a new player
this week, you don't have any new signing, no big news,
and finally, you can just play free at this point.
At this point, there's no expectations on you. You talk
(02:44):
about the outside noise. People are tuning the Jets out.
You know, they're moving on to other things. They're saying
that they're not a good team, that this is the
worst case scenario. And now you just got to say, well,
you know, there's nothing expected to us. Just play free,
like at this point, just play to your talent, let
it rip, take chances there to be great, and maybe
that would be just what the team needs, a belief
(03:05):
that they can play Scott free and put it together
Scott free.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
How do you not let that enter your mind when
it's late in games, and you think about what happened
against Denver, and you think about what happened against Minnesota
and Buffalo. Now, the latest game where we saw the
Jets have an opportunity to close the door was New England,
of course, and the Patriots and Jacoby Brissett come down
(03:30):
the field and drive seventy yards for a touchdown.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
I mean, it's going to be in the back of
your mind. You have to say, hey, you know, this
thing can swing. It's a pendulum, like you know, the
football guys have served us some bad luck and maybe
it's time for some good luck. But we create our
own luck, right, so they have to go out there
and say, hey, man, listen, it is what it is.
We're gonna go outre and play tough. We're gonna play hard,
we're gonna play for each other, We'll play inspire, and
we're gonna play selfless. Like whoever's got it going, let's
(03:56):
let's get it going. Let's see where we getting up.
Like we're all lives, but we're not dead. And there's
a lot of teams that's in the situation. The beauty
of it is to AFC hasn't been run away with,
you know, I expect fully for Pittsburgh to come back
to reality, you know, with their upcoming schedule. I expect,
you know, Denver to come back to reality with their schedule.
(04:18):
The issue is, you know, it's gonna take every single
one of the games, and those teams that are ahead
of you that's gonna have their struggles, you know, coming
up when it gets to the last two games of
the season with the opponent that they're playing, care enough
to help you out.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
I think a lot of people would say the Jets
and the Texans have a similar talent when you look
at the overall roster. But you got one team that's
two and six and the other team that's six and two.
Why are the Texans where they're at?
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Because they're a team, right and they have one leadership,
one voice, one sound. They've been with each other. Everybody
understands their roles. They're gonna be limping in as well.
But it's a belief that the next man can come
up because everybody's in the rope in the same direction.
I feel like right now you really have to stop
yo guys from clicking up in the locker room, guys
(05:07):
to having their separate conversations in the locker room and
guys from giving up. Are guys going to self preservation mode?
I mean, I think that's what you have to do.
You have to hold each other kind of There's a
lot of football to go and it could be one
of those years. You know, who thought that the Ravens
would lose to Cleveland, right? And you know you're in
a situation where it's teams that feel good about themselves
(05:29):
now that four weeks from now cannot feel good about themselves,
and you just got to keep playing. At this point,
nobody wants to hear about the whole schedule. All people
want to hear.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
About is the next game, and you have to the
next game.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
How encourage are you offensively about Garrett Wilson Three of
the past four games north of one hundred yards, and
against the Patriots we saw him and Aaron connecting down
the field. He averaged more than twenty two yards of catch.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
I mean it's encouraging, but I still want to see
bigger players. I want to see bigger shots like the
Jets get no easy scores. You don't see any forty
yard touchdowns. You don't see any you know, fifty yard touchdowns.
You don't see explosive plays from special teams, like you
don't see any turnovers on defense, you know, And that's
what you really want to see, and that's what you need.
(06:16):
And that's been the recipe. And they got to find
a way to get easy scores. It can't be five
six play drives, seven pay drives. And every once in
a while you gotta be able to hit a shot
or hit a big chunk play, a fifty yard chunk play.
And to do that, you know you're gonna you gotta
shure up the protection. That's why I've been a big
proponent of going with the extra lineman and being able
to take off the tight ends out of the game.
(06:37):
And if they get in, they get in as a
receiver and you're praying in the extra lineman to secure
that you can get those those routes down the field.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Give me the remedy for the pre snap operation for
the Jets. We saw them use three timeouts there in
the first quarter against the Patriots, and then obviously they
were moved back and the two point conversion attempts that
ultimately ended with Mike Williams being having no chance to
get in the un zone. After you took that snap
(07:05):
from the seven yard line.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Well for me, you know you talk about guys are
playing with Aaron Rodgers right now, like and you can
see him getting caught up. Everybody knows what he's looking for.
So you sees safety's constantly moving. They move from cover
two to cover one to the whole player and they're moving.
And to stop all that, I think you have to
go just the opposite. You got a quick count. You
(07:27):
got to have some plays that are good against anything
he quick snapping, and then Aaron's gonna have to read
post snap instead of getting all this information pre snap
because teams are using that information against him. They're messing
with him, and he's getting caught up trying to get
into the right play. And the time goes on and
then the clock and you can see it if you
look at Monday Night Football yesterday, even with Daniel Jones.
You know, it used to be an echo of one.
(07:48):
Now they're just calling it so's it hit zero. It
used to be zero click. If the ball is out,
then they let it go. They're not doing that anymore.
You can't allow that to happen. Timeouts are gold because
they give you never know what situation you're going to
find yourself in what.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Have you seen from downing here in the first couple games.
Obviously took overplay calling duties. Prior to Buffalo, we saw
the explosive plays against the Bills. I mean, honestly, you
look at the past three weeks. You're talking about the
big plays, but the explosives have been going in the
right direction. You just want scores where it's thirty yards
(08:24):
forty yards.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Well, I want touchdowns in the red zone as well, right,
And I want a better plan for you know, fourth
or third and short, right, and I want to see
more runs. I'd rather see more sophistication in running the
ball than anything else because that sets up everything else.
That makes the game easy if you can run the football,
and the Jets haven't found a way to consistently run
(08:46):
the football to end up with one hundred and forty
one hundred and fifty yards rushing where it opens up
the play action, you know. And that's why I think
is needed, a steady dose of running the football and
being able to create That's why I'm such a proponent
of bringing in the extra lineman. Who right, if they
know that you still have four eligible receivers out there.
But it gives you protection and it gives you an
opportunity to get double teams, to get movement off the
(09:08):
line of scrimmage, and it push them back and to
work up to those linebackers if you have a six
man offensive line.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
It's interesting when people look at the Texans, you're automatically
going to be talking about CJ. Stroud. Joe Mixon has
been a beast here early in his Texans tenure. You
mentioned the receivers are banged up right now. Stefon Diggs
unlikely to play, could be out for a long time.
Nico Collins also dealing with the injury. But let's go
(09:35):
on the other side of the ball. That's to me,
this is where it starts with the Texans. What have
you seen from them defensively, because right now they're number
two overall in the National Football League.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Well, they got a lockdown corner and they also have
an opportunity to have guys that get after when you
think about the Neil Hunter and Will Anderson, so they
have guys that award daddies in that instance, that's five.
Once again, I would make sure that I have an
extra tackle out there, and that would be a heavy
dose of that to see if I can get opportunities
to you have two good of skill positioned players, not
(10:08):
to allow them time to do their work. It can't
be a three step ball out things like that. And
you know Aaron, you can tell you know Aaron isn't
healthy because you know, just the first time when he
played the Texans, that's when we applauded his movement and
the fact that he didn't do that, let you know
what a difference four weeks makes, because Aaron Rodgers didn't
look like the player as far as extending plays and
(10:30):
Cockland being able to find holes in his own in
the first game because he's not able right now to
move that right. And that's why last week I thought
that maybe they should have started Tyrod, Taylor and Fashionu
so that they could have got opportunity on a short
week to let older guys rest. And I think that
would have been a great recipe, and I think it
would have maybe went a different way because Tyrod would
(10:52):
have been able to extend plays and it's no way
that the Patriots would have been able to with a
mobile quarterback be able to keep cutage in the passing
game against these guys, you know, knowing that the talent
that the Jets have in the Rode receiver room.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Man, it would be huge for the Jets to get
this one for so many different reasons. But you got
ten days. That's what I'm looking at in terms of Rogers' concern.
He's banged up and his whole lower body's got elements
all over the place. So if you ever rail up,
we're able to get this one and then get ten days.
That would be big With defenses knowing I know you
(11:27):
want the Jets to run the football, but how do
you attack throwing the ball with defenses knowing that, hey,
rogers mobility is limited right now, we know that he
can't get out like we saw earlier in the year
when he was so productive against the Patriots in Week three.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Like you just articulated, I mean, guys are gonna, you know,
take liberties right, They're gonna go underneath. They're gonna give
up the edges because they know they can't. They know
they can give up. They know they can give up
the edges because they know the quarterbacks have a threat
to run. So you're playing them like Tom Brady or
Peyton Manning or want of these immobile quarterbacks and you know,
knowing that the ball is still coming out quick, so
(12:04):
it allows you to sit on routes and be phisical
with the line of scrimmage. So you know, that's really
what the concern is the fact that they know and
you heard the defensive lineman from the Patriots talk about
how they play Aaron Rodgers because they know that he
can't move right.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Now defensively, small sample size from Reddick first game. What
did you see and there's stuff that they can build on.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Well, it was some russ definitely right, you know. I
see they try to move him around, they put him
over the guards and all that type of stuff, trying
to get some type of NASCAR package. You know, he'll
get his sea legs underneath him, but he still shows
the ability to be able to win the hand fighting, right,
and you know, you hope that you know, some somebody
opposite Quinn will be able to step up.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
Yeah. I think the biggest issue is that we underestimated.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
The value of a guy like Franklin Myers being opposite
of Quentin Williams and what that allows, you know, or
you know, God to get free. Because I feel like
now with Reddick and McDonald. You have the edge of
secure at least from a past talent perspective, but you
don't have that guy opposite on both sides. That make
sure that you can't just slide, you know, slide to
(13:14):
one guy or double team Quinning. You know, because Franklin Myers,
even though last year he didn't get a lot of sacks,
he got a lot of pressure and God's got sacks
off of his ability to win at the point of attack.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
Quinton Jefferson is the same thing, and Al Woods.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
And when you start looking at you like wow, this
the strength of this team used to be the quality
of depth in the rotation, and now that that quality
and depth has been compromised because you ask yourself, that's
Bryce hoff, that's Jermaine Johnson, that's Franklin Myers, that's Quentin Jefferson,
and Al Woods. That's that's five impactful players last year.
(13:52):
You know, you can lose maybe one, maybe two, but
five is a lot.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
The Official Jets Podcast is presented by Kendra Scott. The
Jewelry Come Need that's shining bright and doing good, shop

Kendriscott dot Com.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
Are defensively, you give up that seventy yard drive at
the end. What are you saying from a leadership perspective,
You're inside the locker room because the expectation here is
the Jets defense is very good. DJ reads DJ reads
at it this week that hey, we want the ball.
(14:27):
I mean we want to be put in that situation
where we can close the door. And they did not
close the door.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
Yeah, it's disappointing.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Right, you look at the details, right, you look at
I believe it was a penalty on that drive, I'm
not sure. But also you look at you know the
miss blitz attempt, right, you know, to go down where
you know the big play. You know, Sauce try to
say that, you know the speedo. He thought the safety
was there and he played outside leverage. But the speedo
(14:56):
dictates that you have to see the speedo and understanding
you have to play time you got turned around. You
look at the on that execution of that big play.
You look at losing laying integrity. You know, they they
were losing it really with Drake May, but then it
intensified with Jakoby Brissett picking up the big third down
because guys are getting knocked out of their lanes and
(15:18):
they just slid them down. And you know on the
telecasts they were saying, look, you know they got three
people on the other on the wrong side of the center.
You know, if you're if you're if you're if you're
a pass rush and you feel yourself getting washed down
like that, you have to spend out and get back
into your gap because you're creating these lanes. So it's about,
you know, the talent is there. They are playing together
as a unit, and you know that's the that's the problem,
(15:39):
you know, and when you do that and then you lose,
then you have to say, well, these are some of
the things that contributed to the loss. We're not a
disciplined defense. We're not paying attention to the details, right.
You know, you talk about the big play that's supposed
to be picked up. So the coach can only do
so much as far as putting you in the right
play you have to execute.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Do you think there's gonna be opportunity there for the
Jets to get after Stroud numbers wise, he gets sacked
a lot, and I know he's got some mobility to
avoid the rush, but he'll hold on to it and
let his receivers try to spring open. But if you
look at Houston from a statistical perspective, Stroud's getting hit
(16:21):
a lot.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Yeah, but a lot of that was without Joe Mixing, right,
And you know, now Joe Mixon is back. If I'm
looking at the Jets, looking at what they gave up
to the Patriots, it's gonna be the same thing every week.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
The Jets can't stop the run.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
So Joe Mixon is one of the upper echeline running
backs and run games, so I expect a heavy dose
of that. And so eventually you're either coaching allowed to
happen and his team's gonna have to bull their neck and.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Mix What is Mixing doing?
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Because he's extremely patient. He's a guy with tremendous contact balance.
He's a guy that you know understands how to get
in and out of his brakes. He's patient to wait for,
you know, things to open up. He sets up his
blocks well with his shoulder square, he has tremendous jump cut,
he's physical at the point of attack, and he's a
beast in the passing game.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
I mean, he's the he's the real deal.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
He is the real deal. Four out of five games
that he's played in this year, more than one hundred
yards rushing the football, and he gives them just a
completely different dynamic I think offensively absolutely.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
So I mean you have to ask you to who
you gonna put it on.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Are you gonna put eight man in the box and
blitz and try and get downhill and take them take
it away and put it on the on the defenders,
especially if it's no Nico Collins, you're just worrying about.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
Tank Dell and Dalton Chokes. Right, That's what you have
to ask yourself.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
Okay, buddy, how much do you think this team has
missed CJ. Mosley this year? He goes down in Week
one against the forty nine ers, had to deal with
the toe. Now before that game against the Patriots neck injury,
and he's seen we're taping this on Tuesday morning, that
Jets have a short weak. He's seeing neck and UH
(18:02):
spinal specialists this week, so we'll have to see what
his availability is like. But when you're talking about that
defense playing together as a unit, I think about C. J.
Mosley being central command. And that's not taking anything away
from Jamie Sherwood, who I think is really, Uh, showed
a lot of growth this year.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Yeah, he showed a lot of growth, but it was
interesting that he wasn't in the lineup, you know when
that game again, right, So they let you know that
it's still some things when you watch the film that
you know he can do better. And once again, it
makes a jet small inside, right, It doesn't give them
that guy that can anchor, that guy that's going to
earn their respect, the guy that's going to be you know,
big in between the tackles. And that's a tough thing, right,
(18:44):
because that's what they're doing, you know. So if you're not,
you're holding up obsequently and holding jump throughs, and that
means that guys are getting up to linebackers at the
second level and creating vertical scenes.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
So that's why I say you're gonna have to put
eight men in the box.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
You're gonna have to you know, make sure that you'reategic
and if you're doing run blitzes, that you're that you're
balanced and understand that you can't get caught in a
blitz and stay in your gap.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
You can't get washed down.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Hey, break down these cornerbacks for me. You talked about
Gardner before and then Stingly from the Texans. They will
be forever connected. Going back to the draft, of course.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Well, Stingly is a little bit more physical in the run.
He's a little bit more stout, you know, U Sauce
is a is a long guy that relies on this
makeup speed in his length. Stingly is a more of
a you know, in your in your short area quickness
type of guy.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
You know, Sauce is more of a strider, you know.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
I would say, like, consider like Sauce like a Crimarte, right,
And I would say, look at look at Stingly more
like a chat Belly or somebody like that, somebody that's big, strong, physical,
But also like is a guy that's a little shorter
than Sauce. It seems like a guy that can yet
tremendous ball skills as well.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
So these guys always be linked.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
They will be what is the key to takeaways? The
Jets aren't getting any of them. When we talk about
elite defenses, Elite defenses tend to take the football away
and for the Jets this season that has just proved
to be elusive.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
Yeah, I mean it is elusive.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
They have to be able to catch the balls they
got there. But a lot of times, man the man,
you just got to be able to take chances, to
understand route combinations. You got to be able to when
the ball hit you. I mean it's guys that the
ball have hitting the chests, hitting the hands they had,
they fail to come down with the ball. So that's
one thing. The other thing is hustling to the ball.
(20:40):
First man, secure the tackle, second man, try and get
the ball out. So you know, sometimes you know turnovers
coming droves. Sometimes it's just Johnny on the spot. But
a lot of times you have to make sure that
you're manufacturing. We always do our turnover drill, make sure
that we can get it together and figure it out.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
You have to.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
You have to do things of that sort because you know,
those change the games, those momentum changers. Those are points
off the board. That's you know, uh time possession, it's
still in possessions. I mean, I think that's one of
the biggest things that the Jets are doing that you know,
they're not getting the turnovers, and that's really something that
every great defense will strive for.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
Our anticipation is Ruddick will get more snaps this week.
I believe it was around twenty six or twenty eight
snaps against the Patriots. Ye, with his further inclusion in
the defense, does that mean hey, we're gonna blitz less,
we're gonna rush for then we could play more zone
in the back and maybe you have those zone eyes
and maybe you do have some ops back there.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
Yeah, I mean you will hope, you will hope you
can come down there.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
You can play whole coverage, which allows you to have
eight man in coverage, but you know, also allows you
to have somebody that can be a free defender, that
can read.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
The eyes of the quarterback, that can take some chances.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
So you hope, you hope for that, and you hope
that you get immediate pressure so that you know, Quinn
can get some one on one to get that interior pressure.
I think you saw him get a little bit more pressure.
I'd like to see him Hassan on the same side
because that guarantees that the slide is coming there. But
that also guarantees that you can't double him, you know,
especially if you put somebody in the backside in that
in that next to the center. I mean, in my opinion,
(22:21):
like the Jets should go to more not a sink
front with alignment I think they should go to a
traditional three four, and I think they should be able
to have Hassan Reddick out there. That allows Solomon not
to be a detackle getting double team. That allows him
to sit, you know, him and kin Law to sit
in the A gap meaning the B gaps in between
the garden and tackle, so that that puts five men
(22:41):
on the line of scrimmage for you, and that allows
you know, you to have one one more than you
have one on ones that way, because now that means
Will gets a one on one. That means that that
means that Hassan gets a one on one, and depends
on how you put the alignment, that means Quinn gets
a one on one, so.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
Nobody should win.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
I would put ken Long directly at the nose tackle
and maybe bringing a guy like Taylor and use that
to secure that my linebackers can free flow and make
sure that they're covered up.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
I like what I saw out of quinnin last week.
Obviously you got a guy like that, a foundational piece
in the middle every offensive line in the national football
He's going to be focused on, Hey, we can't let
this guy wreck our afternoon or our night. But he
got in the offensive backfield a couple times, and maybe
that will propel him to really start getting going, because
(23:34):
I don't think he was playing poorly by any means,
but he's just had gotten a lot of attention this
year because of what you mentioned before. You don't have
a number of guys in the lineup, and that's your
Maine Johnson injury. I know he's a nutge player, but
that really impacted the Jets early on.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
Yeah, because that means sometimes guys say, hey man, maybe
we'll leave our tight end on him, we don't have
to double the end because we don't respect him that way.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
We feel like our guy can win, you know.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
So then that means that, okay, well, that means a
guard and tackle can come blocked down on Quinn and
double team him wherever he goes, and the center can
go you know, backside.
Speaker 3 (24:09):
And when you only got four.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
Guys up there, you got you got you know, six
people on the line of scrimmagem You do the math,
that's double double singles and whoever is getting single isn't winning.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
So what do you make of this spot? For both teams?
The Texans seem to be like they've been skating vib late. Okay,
but they're winning and in the National Football League, a
lot of one possession games, whereas the Jets are a
side of the coin. They're losing a lot of close
games short week.
Speaker 3 (24:39):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
Not a common opponent, yes, in the same conference, but
it's not like you're playing Houston all the time. It's
not like a Patriot team that you guys know inside
and out. And then both teams are dealing with different
types of injuries.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
I mean, this is a team that saw each other
just last year, So how much change from that? So
like it's familiarity there they're in the same division or not.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
They saw each other last year.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
And there's a lot of similar players, you know, on
both sides, same philosophy, same coordinators for the most part,
same personnel, same belief So it's gonna be about who
can come out and establish the run, and who has
a better game plan early on and who makes who
gets touchdowns not field goals.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
All right, you know we are sponsored by Kendri Scott.
Kendra Scott, shine bright, do good. We make a choice
to see the good in every day. Give me three
Jacks who were gonna shine brightest against the Houston Texans.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
I mean, if there's gonna be any success, it's gotta
be a guy like Breech Hall. And I think this
is a game as well where I think you're gonna
have to go with Davonte Adams, you know what I mean,
because I feel like Davante Adams is gonna have to
step up and you know, really try and get the
ball to them. Depending on who Stingley goes to, you
have to go with the hot hand and you know
you'll use just the third game where you kind.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
Of it out.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
You know, they've had their special their preseason, so to speak.
As far as Aaron Rodgers, DeVonta Adams, just a game
where I expect him to kind of really like take
control and hit the same stride that he had when
he was with the Raiders.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
No, you got too man, you got one more, you
got Haul, you got Davonte. And I would think you're
going defense or special teams.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
Well I will go.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
I will go with Quinning because I think, you know,
if you're smart, you gotta put Hassan Reddick on the
same side as him, and Hassian should have a little
bit more of a sea legs. I saw he got
knocked off balance playing a little bit too high, which
is usually what happens because when you're you know, at
home training by yourself.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
You have nobody that can make you pay the price
for playing too high. You know.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
I saw him get pushed on the ground a couple
of times trying to do some stunts, exposed in his chest.
I think he has his timing in the sea legs
a little bit more under him now that he has
some game time, you know, action. He shouldn't be too
sore because then he did tween six snaps. I think
he should be able to go thirty five, even forty
and be able to make a huge impact.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Hey, I just need to win. They can't be focused
on playoffs no matter what the expectations were at the
beginning of the season. They just got to win a ball game.
With that being said, they just wanted to get your
thoughts on the AFC. You mentioned the Steelers, you mentioned
the Broncos, you mentioned the Chargers. Ultimately that seventh seed,
and I'm not talking about the Jets here. I just
want to get your general thoughts on the conference. Do
(27:22):
you do you think that's a team that's going to
be a nine and eight kind of record.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
It could be. I mean, it could be at worse ten.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
I mean, I'm concerned about the the Bengals because they're
a team that can always, you know, get on a
hot streak. You know, they're they're relatively well coached, they
have you know, explosive receivers and quarterback and the game
they losses with T Higgins not being able to play.
Speaker 3 (27:48):
But it probably can come down.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Ten wins is going to probably solidified, but I wouldn't
be surprised if ninety and eight gets yet.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
And what do you think the atmosphere is going to
be like in my life? Third day night at the start?
Because this this is a fan base, This is a
fan base that wants success, that has been startled by
what has happened here, Earlionaire.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
I think I think, I think the fan base is
going to be wait and see. Right, It's going to
be it's a festive day, right, and you know a
lot of people are gonna be there in costumes. I
believe it's gonna be a great atmosphere, it's gonna beautiful weather,
The tailgate is gonna be fun. But I think the
fans are going to be in a wait and see mode. Right,
So it's gonna be important for the Jets to give
them something to cheer about early on, and I think
(28:33):
they have to continue to play well so that that
energy in the stadium could be sustained, because you know,
the fan base is shot right now.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
Happy all we, Matt Becker
Speaker 3 (28:42):
Hey, same to you, man, Trigger treat
