We'll hear from assistant coaches and 0:00:32.720 --> 0:00:35.800 Mike McDaniel will also pick the week fifteen games that 0:00:35.920 --> 0:00:39.599 kick off tonight with a snoozefest in Las Vegas from 0:00:39.600 --> 0:00:43.320 the Baptist Health Studios inside the Baptist Health Training Complex. 0:00:43.360 --> 0:00:49.440 This is the Draft Time Podcast. Ye daffy, you know 0:00:49.440 --> 0:00:52.200 how we do it on Thursdays. My guest a Twine Stay, 0:00:52.400 --> 0:00:55.080 joining me now, is a longtime friend of the show, 0:00:55.160 --> 0:00:57.200 a heck of a writer, and an overall good dude. 0:00:57.480 --> 0:00:57.920 You know who. 0:00:57.960 --> 0:01:00.000 He is a columnist at the New York Daily News. 0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:02.480 Antwine Stay, Antoine, how you living, brother? 0:01:03.080 --> 0:01:05.040 I'm good, Travis, how you doing man. 0:01:05.240 --> 0:01:05.800 Not too bad. 0:01:06.040 --> 0:01:07.640 We talked about us off there a little bit. Still 0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:09.800 a tough week, still getting over some things here in 0:01:09.880 --> 0:01:13.000 terms of our first like unexpected loss of the season. 0:01:13.080 --> 0:01:14.280 But it is what it is. 0:01:14.319 --> 0:01:16.000 You move on and you have a big game coming 0:01:16.080 --> 0:01:18.520 up on Sunday at home against a division rival and 0:01:18.560 --> 0:01:20.600 a chance to sweep a team that you love to 0:01:20.600 --> 0:01:22.160 sweep every time you get a chance to do that. 0:01:22.280 --> 0:01:25.440 So our focus has shifted and pivoted there. And we 0:01:25.440 --> 0:01:27.840 always start these interviews Antoine, as you know, you've done 0:01:27.840 --> 0:01:29.800 a few things with being the best that the quarterback 0:01:29.840 --> 0:01:31.960 positions where we start, and it'll be a different quarterback 0:01:32.000 --> 0:01:34.640 as far as Miami is concerned compared to who they 0:01:34.640 --> 0:01:37.600 saw back on Black Friday, But the same devil the 0:01:38.040 --> 0:01:40.200 Jets have danced with for really the last three years 0:01:40.520 --> 0:01:43.399 in Zach Wilson. I think all state it as basic 0:01:43.440 --> 0:01:46.760 as I can to you here, Antwine. What changed in 0:01:46.840 --> 0:01:49.920 the second half of the Houston game compared to not 0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:52.320 just the first half of the game or the season 0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:54.680 prior this year, to the first three years of Zach 0:01:54.720 --> 0:01:57.080 Wilson's career. What changed where he came out like a 0:01:57.120 --> 0:01:59.520 man on fire and played a really good football game. 0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:02.800 Off like he just let it rip, and they said 0:02:02.840 --> 0:02:05.000 he was going to do that coming into the week, 0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:07.200 He's gonna have fun. He played like a man that 0:02:07.320 --> 0:02:09.440 had nothing to lose. I mean, he's already been benched 0:02:09.440 --> 0:02:13.120 three times in his career. Obviously a lot of people aren't, 0:02:13.280 --> 0:02:16.200 you know, kind of bullet shown, Zach. But he was decided, 0:02:16.240 --> 0:02:19.040 you know what, instead of overthinking and you know, trying 0:02:19.080 --> 0:02:21.600 to process all these information at one time, I'm just 0:02:21.639 --> 0:02:23.880 going to go back to my BYU days and just 0:02:23.960 --> 0:02:25.560 let it chuck it down the field. And I think 0:02:25.560 --> 0:02:28.000 that's what he did. And they opened up the playbook 0:02:28.000 --> 0:02:29.960 for to theay. Hackett did a great job with that 0:02:30.080 --> 0:02:32.520 some of the play calling. Jack got the ball to 0:02:32.600 --> 0:02:35.360 his playmakers and Garrett Wilson and Breese Hall and just 0:02:35.400 --> 0:02:37.680 kind of let them do the work. And I definitely 0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:40.200 think despite him, you know, losing the fumble in that 0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:43.160 game and being sat multiple times and all the issues 0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:45.320 on the Jets office the line, you know, he stayed 0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:47.880 confident and poised with the face with the rush pass 0:02:47.919 --> 0:02:48.680 rush in his face. 0:02:48.720 --> 0:02:50.600 And I think that's very. 0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:52.239 Different than what he had been in the past, where 0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:54.120 if you put any kind of pressure on that he 0:02:54.120 --> 0:02:56.280 would just throw the ball in the coverage and you 0:02:56.320 --> 0:02:58.720 know he wouldn't be able to use it, wouldn't you know, 0:02:58.840 --> 0:03:01.320 make the right decision. But also I was impressed with 0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:04.920 his like off scheduling play as well, Like he had 0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:06.720 a ball where he was throwing on the run and 0:03:06.880 --> 0:03:11.079 got the ball to Garrett and also Tyler Cocklin too 0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:12.880 as well, And you know, I thought he was really 0:03:12.880 --> 0:03:15.120 impressive just kind of they all scheduled and you know, 0:03:15.760 --> 0:03:18.640 you know, not necessarily traditional things that you know he 0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:20.800 typically does in the offense, which I think a lot 0:03:20.840 --> 0:03:23.320 of people fell in love, including the gist, fell in love. 0:03:23.280 --> 0:03:25.239 Doing the pre draft process. So that that's kind of 0:03:25.280 --> 0:03:26.000 what stuck out to me. 0:03:26.520 --> 0:03:28.640 Yeah, the famous pro day thrill, right, like that was 0:03:28.680 --> 0:03:30.880 why yes, fans fell in love with him, why he 0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:32.000 was a second overall pick. 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:33.200 But like, and you know it fee listen to the 0:03:33.240 --> 0:03:33.639 drive time. 0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:35.920 You know, I really harp on this hard that that 0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:37.720 ain't what wins in the NFL, man, Like you have 0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:39.880 to win from instructure in the pocket and beat teams 0:03:39.880 --> 0:03:42.400 to their mind. Otherwise you're going to be a quarterback 0:03:42.400 --> 0:03:45.080 that shows flashes and doesn't have staying power in the NFL. 0:03:45.360 --> 0:03:47.560 But that's why I was kind of, for lack of 0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:49.400 a better term, just flat out and pressed because he 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:52.840 was playing that way and reading the hots and getting 0:03:52.840 --> 0:03:54.760 the ball to replace those hot blitz as the Texans 0:03:54.800 --> 0:03:55.480 were sending it him. 0:03:55.800 --> 0:03:57.520 I'm really I think that this. 0:03:57.160 --> 0:03:59.200 This week is the big test for him, Antoine, because 0:03:59.480 --> 0:04:01.360 like anybody can have one good game, like I'm not 0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:03.480 like not anybody, but for the most part, like players 0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:05.520 can pop up for one good game, it's how you 0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:07.640 follow up when the tape is out there. And maybe 0:04:07.680 --> 0:04:09.840 the Dolphins adjust to how he was able to kind of, 0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:11.880 you know, play with that comp maybe you can, maybe 0:04:11.920 --> 0:04:13.120 you can turn it against him. I don't know, but 0:04:13.120 --> 0:04:14.680 I think this week is a big test in terms 0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:17.120 of where Zach Wilson's career goes from here. And then 0:04:17.160 --> 0:04:19.680 I wonder about that, like does he still have that same, like, 0:04:19.760 --> 0:04:22.240 you know, f at mentality, because now there's pressure on 0:04:22.440 --> 0:04:24.640 maybe I can revitalize my career here in this spot. 0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:27.760 It's such a fascinating dynamic heading into this game, and 0:04:27.800 --> 0:04:29.640 I want to kind of pivot here to something similar 0:04:29.680 --> 0:04:32.000 that we just you just mentioned yourself that and I 0:04:32.000 --> 0:04:35.279 saw Jets fans on Twitter, insisting that they've been way 0:04:35.279 --> 0:04:38.160 too conservative all year that they finally opened up the 0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:40.839 playbook in the second half of that game for the offense. 0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:43.040 Is that what you saw? And like, what does that 0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:46.320 mean exactly? Because like if that's the case, it's it 0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:49.279 was week fit fourteen, Like the hell took so long? 0:04:49.960 --> 0:04:53.360 Yeah, basically, you know Nathaniel Hackett, like he's very predictable. 0:04:53.360 --> 0:04:55.680 And I harped on this like when they played the 0:04:55.760 --> 0:04:57.960 Raiders last month that you know, I tell you your 0:04:58.000 --> 0:05:00.600 pears to end on. Coach was saying when they had 0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:03.840 they want to run the football and that shows I mean, 0:05:03.880 --> 0:05:06.080 it wasn't necessarily a disc but it kind of was 0:05:06.120 --> 0:05:09.359 because it showed like the predictability of the Jets offense 0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:11.800 and that's kind of you know, it's been frustrating for 0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:13.760 a lot of fans, and it's even covered the team 0:05:13.839 --> 0:05:16.240 that you know they'll first down start the game, you 0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:18.120 know they're gonna run, and that's exactly what they do. 0:05:18.520 --> 0:05:20.440 And they get in these formations where you know what 0:05:20.440 --> 0:05:23.280 they're gonna do, and Hacket, you know, the second half 0:05:23.400 --> 0:05:25.400 like they would be in these run formations, but they 0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:27.680 would decide to pass or they do it end around 0:05:27.880 --> 0:05:29.880 or you know they would do. You know, they've done 0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:32.480 fleet clickers at times too as well. So yeah, he's 0:05:32.680 --> 0:05:34.680 he's decided to open it up, and it's kind of 0:05:34.960 --> 0:05:38.200 you know, back to Zach Wilson's just you know, let 0:05:38.240 --> 0:05:40.760 it rip and just have fun mentality. And I think, 0:05:40.920 --> 0:05:43.200 you know, Hackett kind of identified that too as well. 0:05:43.279 --> 0:05:45.440 I think it was kind of a conversation, you know 0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:48.479 between the coaches at halftime, was saying when it was 0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:50.960 there were it was zero zero at halftime, and then 0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:52.960 all of a sudden, everything just kind of flipped. The 0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:55.480 Jets got the ball and went down the field and scored, 0:05:55.560 --> 0:05:58.000 and you know, everything else is kind of fell into 0:05:58.000 --> 0:05:59.880 place after that. But I think a lot of credit 0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:03.200 deserve to go to Hacket as well for you know, 0:06:03.240 --> 0:06:05.880 having the confidence to you know, open up the playbook, 0:06:06.000 --> 0:06:09.200 especially with Zach because you know, Aaron obviously, Aaron was 0:06:09.240 --> 0:06:11.719 his guy when he came here, and everything was catered 0:06:11.760 --> 0:06:13.960 towards Aaron Rodgers, and of course he got hurt, so 0:06:14.000 --> 0:06:15.680 it took him a little while to try to trust 0:06:15.680 --> 0:06:16.799 that with the offense. 0:06:16.839 --> 0:06:19.040 And I think you're kind of seeing it now. It's 0:06:19.080 --> 0:06:19.840 just now to this. 0:06:19.839 --> 0:06:22.640 Point whehere they've decided to open things up, and this, 0:06:22.920 --> 0:06:25.360 you know, being four and eight, five and eight, now 0:06:25.640 --> 0:06:27.440 that to decide, you know, we have nothing to lose, 0:06:27.480 --> 0:06:28.960 you know, let's just go ahead and chuck it in 0:06:29.000 --> 0:06:30.040 and see what he can do. 0:06:30.680 --> 0:06:32.400 I'll go ahead and shame less me promote some of 0:06:32.400 --> 0:06:35.440 my previous content once again here because it provides another 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:38.480 solid footnote. And something that I really harp on for 0:06:38.839 --> 0:06:41.560 Dolphins fans and football fans alike, is like, don't get 0:06:41.600 --> 0:06:43.520 too caught in what you think a team is for 0:06:43.600 --> 0:06:45.640 one game or for whatever, like, for however long it 0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:47.680 might be, because things can change in this thing so 0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:50.680 dang fast. Because prior to this game, like it was 0:06:50.720 --> 0:06:53.120 a Jets offense that couldn't move the ball, couldn't convert 0:06:53.160 --> 0:06:55.520 third downs, never scored more than one touchdown in a game, 0:06:55.560 --> 0:06:58.440 and you're talking about them like this. This new offense 0:06:58.600 --> 0:07:00.640 was birth out of you know, this rest of attack, 0:07:00.680 --> 0:07:02.600 and we'll see, like you said, it gave him a 0:07:02.600 --> 0:07:04.080 steppings to see where the can go from here. But 0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:06.599 you just never know how things materialize. It's just why 0:07:06.640 --> 0:07:09.000 this league is so much fun and why it's so unpredictable. 0:07:09.000 --> 0:07:10.760 But we also tend to get into these bodes where 0:07:10.800 --> 0:07:12.800 it's like that's who they are now. That's just never 0:07:12.800 --> 0:07:14.720 how it is. Man, This game changes all the day time. 0:07:14.760 --> 0:07:16.840 So good stuff there. And speaking of things that change, 0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:19.720 the offensive line of the Jets has been a turnstile 0:07:19.760 --> 0:07:22.320 in terms of the people they've had available, Like the 0:07:22.400 --> 0:07:25.000 injuries have mounted and the same the same story is 0:07:25.000 --> 0:07:27.080 true over here for Miami right now. But the Jets 0:07:27.160 --> 0:07:29.400 offensive line got some more parts back compared to what 0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:32.080 we saw on Black Friday, with Makai Beckton coming back. 0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:33.200 I know it's far from. 0:07:33.000 --> 0:07:36.040 Healthy, but how did that group do you think contribute 0:07:36.040 --> 0:07:37.600 to the win against the Houston Texas. 0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:39.880 I think that I think that was solid too. Like 0:07:39.920 --> 0:07:42.440 you said, beck And played did not played. You know 0:07:42.680 --> 0:07:46.320 West Swicheler, who that has been typically right right guard 0:07:46.360 --> 0:07:48.880 as a lady like, he's out for the season now 0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:51.400 with a calf injury. So they end up having to, 0:07:51.640 --> 0:07:53.960 you know, go with Hanson there who was at the 0:07:54.000 --> 0:07:56.600 right guard position, and there at MaTx Mitchell, who you know, 0:07:56.720 --> 0:08:00.000 crazy enough he also you know he also was limited 0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:03.040 in practice on Wednesday due to a neck injury. But yeah, 0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:06.080 I mean they've they've had two different lineups, like different 0:08:06.080 --> 0:08:08.840 combinations on the office a lot in fourteen games like 0:08:08.920 --> 0:08:12.280 that is just you know, murderous role. As far as 0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:14.200 I know, the Dolphins are kind of close behind too. 0:08:14.240 --> 0:08:16.400 I believe they've had nine like you can you know, 0:08:16.480 --> 0:08:18.280 you can clarify that for me too, But I know 0:08:18.480 --> 0:08:20.440 both of these teams have probably been hit the hardest 0:08:20.440 --> 0:08:23.120 by offensive a lot of injuries all year long, and 0:08:23.320 --> 0:08:26.040 you know, they just hadn't had the continuity. But even 0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:28.040 despite that, I thought, you, Zach and even with the 0:08:28.040 --> 0:08:30.280 pressure that was in his face, like, he still was able. 0:08:30.520 --> 0:08:32.440 That's why I was impressed with He was still able 0:08:32.480 --> 0:08:34.760 to get the ball out pretty quickly to his playmakers. 0:08:34.760 --> 0:08:37.000 And you know, he wasn't rattled like I've seen in 0:08:37.040 --> 0:08:39.440 other games this year. And you know, the run run 0:08:39.520 --> 0:08:41.319 Like running the ball was still a bit of a challenge, 0:08:41.360 --> 0:08:44.079 sip because I think teams are expected to just to 0:08:44.160 --> 0:08:46.920 run the ball quite frequently. So Britest Hall hasn't had 0:08:46.920 --> 0:08:49.040 this assess that. I think a lot of people expected 0:08:49.080 --> 0:08:50.280 him too early. 0:08:50.080 --> 0:08:50.640 On this year. 0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:52.720 But you did see some lanes start to open up 0:08:52.720 --> 0:08:54.560 in the second half where he's able to get save 0:08:54.640 --> 0:08:57.240 some big games there. But yeah, I definitely think the 0:08:57.360 --> 0:09:00.320 run the rushing the rushing attack needs to be kind 0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:02.720 of plan, you know, you know, moving into a game 0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:05.400 against the Dolphins where Miami, as you know, has one 0:09:05.400 --> 0:09:08.319 of the best pass rushes in the NFL, especially I 0:09:08.400 --> 0:09:10.840 believe the third in the league in sets coming into 0:09:10.880 --> 0:09:13.679 this game. And you know, despite Zach having a game 0:09:13.720 --> 0:09:15.640 that he did against Houston, you definitely don't want him 0:09:15.720 --> 0:09:18.439 dropping back throwing the ball more than thirty times in 0:09:18.480 --> 0:09:19.559 this game and. 0:09:19.600 --> 0:09:21.440 Once he from the New York Delay News my guest 0:09:21.440 --> 0:09:23.719 today talking Dolphins and Jets. I had a Sunday's match 0:09:23.800 --> 0:09:26.680 up here at hard Rock Stadium, week number fifteen. Big, 0:09:26.720 --> 0:09:28.559 big game for the Miami Dolphins. Let's go over to 0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:30.120 the other side of the football here and talk about 0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:33.320 a stout Jets defense. And first, you know, you're around 0:09:33.360 --> 0:09:35.240 the guys, you know, Antoine in the locker room and 0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:36.680 press conferences, all that stuff. 0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:37.320 Practice. 0:09:37.440 --> 0:09:40.520 I'm curious the mood this week because last time we 0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:42.800 saw these two teams, like the Dolphins took it to 0:09:42.840 --> 0:09:45.360 the Jets and really beat them at what they do best, 0:09:45.360 --> 0:09:47.160 like Tyreek got deep, Wadald got deep. 0:09:47.160 --> 0:09:47.280 Two. 0:09:47.320 --> 0:09:48.840 I had a big game besides the picks, I mean, 0:09:48.880 --> 0:09:50.719 he was playing well. The running game got off. I 0:09:50.800 --> 0:09:52.880 had that long touchdown driving the second half with pretty 0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:56.079 much exclusively the running game. What's the mood around Dolphins 0:09:56.120 --> 0:09:57.280 week for the Jets this week? 0:09:57.840 --> 0:10:00.199 And I want to go in too against the Miami 0:09:59.640 --> 0:10:02.600 And that's basically what it is, is another opportunity for 0:10:02.640 --> 0:10:05.520 them to you know, not get swept against the division opponent. 0:10:05.679 --> 0:10:06.480 They didn't get swept. 0:10:06.520 --> 0:10:09.560 They didn't get swept against the Bills, but you know, 0:10:09.559 --> 0:10:11.280 they went't one in one. They don't want to get 0:10:11.320 --> 0:10:14.199 swept against, obviously the Dolphins. And they have another game 0:10:14.240 --> 0:10:16.280 against the Patriots that you know, they can try to 0:10:16.520 --> 0:10:19.240 end that dreaded streak against. They have beat the Patriots 0:10:19.280 --> 0:10:21.600 its twenty fifteen, which is crazy to think about. But 0:10:22.000 --> 0:10:24.120 back to the Dolphins. Yeah, they you know, they understand 0:10:24.120 --> 0:10:26.880 the situation. They understand that they're trying to play spoiler. 0:10:27.160 --> 0:10:29.640 There has been a tremendous season for the Dolphins there 0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:32.080 and they're trying to get another victory. I mean, this 0:10:32.160 --> 0:10:35.120 team went on a five game losing streak basically right 0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:37.559 after they win against the Giants, and it was a struggle. 0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:39.679 It was definitely difficult for the team. You know, they 0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:41.679 wouldn't score with a whole lot of points. Offensively, the 0:10:41.760 --> 0:10:45.040 defenses was you know, carrying a heavy load. They're trying 0:10:45.080 --> 0:10:47.200 to win games for them, just like in the first 0:10:47.240 --> 0:10:49.680 Dolphins game where you know, Brendon Epples had that pitch 0:10:49.679 --> 0:10:52.120 sits and you're thinking, oh, well, the Jets are back 0:10:52.160 --> 0:10:55.520 in it just because the defense made a play. But yeah, 0:10:55.559 --> 0:10:57.920 I mean finally their offense kind of stepped up and 0:10:58.040 --> 0:11:00.839 you know, took the rains last week. But defensively, they 0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:03.360 understand what the situation is with Miami and you know, 0:11:03.559 --> 0:11:06.400 having you know, multiple backups at the offensive line position, 0:11:06.480 --> 0:11:08.960 Tyler Williams obviously you know, a big, large form. 0:11:09.160 --> 0:11:10.880 So I'm definitely curious to see. 0:11:10.600 --> 0:11:13.040 How you know, they you know, got against it and 0:11:13.080 --> 0:11:15.320 try to block Quinn Williams, who you know, his SAT 0:11:15.400 --> 0:11:17.880 numbers aren't necessarily what it was a year ago, but 0:11:18.000 --> 0:11:20.320 his pressure level if you look at it is just 0:11:20.360 --> 0:11:22.520 as high, if not higher, than what it was last 0:11:22.600 --> 0:11:24.719 year when he had twelve SATs. But I think that's 0:11:24.760 --> 0:11:26.000 going to be the key to the game, just how 0:11:26.040 --> 0:11:29.240 it's the Dolphins offensive line handled this chests defensive line 0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:32.520 and also can does Miami you know, tend to run 0:11:32.520 --> 0:11:35.520 the football a little bit more consider their offensive line situation. 0:11:36.240 --> 0:11:38.760 Another another example there of you know, having to provide 0:11:38.760 --> 0:11:41.599 context behind stats, because, like you mentioned, Quentin Williams is 0:11:41.640 --> 0:11:43.560 still one of the best players in the entire league, 0:11:43.600 --> 0:11:45.839 regardless of position. I don't care what sack numbers say, 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:47.520 Like just watch the tape and yours. That guy's an 0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:50.800 impactful player every single down, every single game. And you 0:11:50.840 --> 0:11:52.679 talk about the running game, they're a little bit antoine, like, 0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:55.880 I'm curious. There's so many fascinating like subplots of this game. 0:11:55.920 --> 0:11:57.719 For me, the Zach Wilson thing, like how can they 0:11:57.800 --> 0:12:00.160 can the offense together two big games like that. On 0:12:00.200 --> 0:12:03.120 the defensive side, I thought Miami really went after the 0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:07.000 Jets in a smart way. I'm just trying to think 0:12:07.000 --> 0:12:08.920 of that word right there, in an intelligent way in 0:12:09.000 --> 0:12:10.959 terms of attacking the edge with the wide running game 0:12:10.960 --> 0:12:12.679 and playing off of that in the passing game. And 0:12:13.160 --> 0:12:15.640 I'm curious because I thought the two biggest plays in 0:12:15.640 --> 0:12:18.480 that game back on Black Friday were those deep shots 0:12:18.679 --> 0:12:21.160 to both Tyreek Hill and Jileen Waddle both to start 0:12:21.200 --> 0:12:22.800 the first half y and to start the second half, 0:12:22.800 --> 0:12:24.720 Because I thought that kind of changed the way those 0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:27.280 drives and the rest of the offense went that entire game. 0:12:27.640 --> 0:12:30.120 Do you expect a bounce back here from Sauce and Reed? 0:12:30.160 --> 0:12:32.400 And I'm curious to kind of hear your conversations with 0:12:32.400 --> 0:12:34.199 those guys throughout the course of the week as they 0:12:34.200 --> 0:12:36.079 getting ready for a big challenge here against Tyreek killing 0:12:36.120 --> 0:12:36.680 Jilen Waddle. 0:12:37.080 --> 0:12:39.280 Oh yeah, I'm sure they were not happy with the 0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:41.760 way they performed there. I mean, as good as those 0:12:41.800 --> 0:12:44.400 guys are Waddle who obviously had a big game, and 0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:46.760 of course Tyree made some big plays too as well, 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:50.000 they were definitely not happy with the performers, especially consider 0:12:50.080 --> 0:12:52.079 and I mean the Jets game be'st the most the 0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:54.640 Jets have given up all season long and force points, 0:12:55.000 --> 0:12:57.520 so they defensive wise, they felt like they didn't do 0:12:57.640 --> 0:13:00.680 enough to win their game, no matter how you know, 0:13:01.400 --> 0:13:03.800 bad the offense was, and you know they're gonna they're 0:13:03.800 --> 0:13:07.400 gonna want to redeem themselves, especially considering also the fact 0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:08.959 that they end up giving up nearly one hundred and 0:13:09.000 --> 0:13:11.400 seventy yards on the ground, So whether it was stopping 0:13:11.559 --> 0:13:14.600 trying to lack of stopping to run or also you know, 0:13:14.679 --> 0:13:17.160 through the air, which the Jets have still have not 0:13:17.240 --> 0:13:19.640 given up a three hundred yard passer. They almost did 0:13:19.679 --> 0:13:21.839 that day, but did not give up a three hundred 0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:24.599 yard passer and thirty one consecutive games. That's there in 0:13:24.600 --> 0:13:27.080 their calling card. That's what they've hung their hat on 0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:30.120 all year long, stopping opponent's room, throwing the ball down 0:13:30.200 --> 0:13:32.120 deep form. And you know, I think they're gonna try 0:13:32.160 --> 0:13:34.200 to do the same thing too against two of who's, 0:13:34.280 --> 0:13:37.320 like I say, has success that you alluded to. Outside 0:13:37.320 --> 0:13:40.000 the two picks in that game, Black Friday has had 0:13:40.000 --> 0:13:42.040 succists in the air against this team too. A lot 0:13:42.040 --> 0:13:44.839 of teams go into it not taking not taking shots 0:13:44.840 --> 0:13:46.640 at Salts Guardener considering how good he is. 0:13:46.760 --> 0:13:48.679 DJ reed, you know, kind of the same thing. 0:13:48.720 --> 0:13:50.720 He's had a tremendous year in Michael Carter, the second, 0:13:50.720 --> 0:13:53.280 who I think is one of the better slot corners 0:13:53.280 --> 0:13:56.160 in football, as we'll talk about, I'm sure, but yeah, 0:13:56.280 --> 0:13:59.120 they really hunt their hat on, like how they stopped 0:13:59.120 --> 0:14:01.960 the past pass average and you know, also passing deep 0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:03.080 passes and it's supposed to. 0:14:03.040 --> 0:14:03.960 Play throughout the air. 0:14:04.480 --> 0:14:04.800 Yeah. 0:14:04.840 --> 0:14:06.680 I watched that Houston tape and like I thought, it 0:14:06.679 --> 0:14:08.520 was a good example of kind of a similar offense. 0:14:08.559 --> 0:14:11.760 Because you know their OC is off that Shanahan try 0:14:11.760 --> 0:14:12.079 as well. 0:14:12.120 --> 0:14:14.320 So similar concepts there in terms of how they run things. 0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:16.080 And I was like, I wonder if the Jets changed 0:14:16.080 --> 0:14:17.680 it all, Like, Nope, they're gonna go out there, they're 0:14:17.679 --> 0:14:19.920 gonna play physical, they're gonna pressure, they're gonna challenge you 0:14:19.920 --> 0:14:22.200 every step and you have to beat them and anticipate 0:14:22.280 --> 0:14:24.000 until we see on Sunday here at Hard Rocks. 0:14:24.120 --> 0:14:27.160 The only thing that they did differently is then, especially 0:14:27.160 --> 0:14:29.800 with a young quarterback and CJ, they brought more pressure 0:14:30.200 --> 0:14:32.000 like they typically the Jets typically don't. 0:14:32.200 --> 0:14:33.880 Let it's a whole lot, but they did that. 0:14:34.080 --> 0:14:36.840 They usually just pressure with four and then you know, 0:14:37.080 --> 0:14:39.800 dropped seven back there. But they brought they brought pressure 0:14:39.800 --> 0:14:41.240 a lot more than what they're used to in that 0:14:41.480 --> 0:14:43.120 game against CJ and Texas. 0:14:43.520 --> 0:14:45.000 That's that's a good point because you probably won't do 0:14:45.000 --> 0:14:46.800 that against two. That's where he's best. Against the Blitz, 0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:48.520 I probably don't see much of that. We'll see, I mean, 0:14:48.680 --> 0:14:51.360 you never know. The Jets can be aggressive in multiple ways. 0:14:51.800 --> 0:14:53.440 You mentioned this and it will be the last question 0:14:53.480 --> 0:14:55.640 before my my question. I asked everybody about how the 0:14:55.680 --> 0:14:57.680 Jets can win this game. But I'm curious because you 0:14:57.720 --> 0:14:59.240 mentioned him and he wasn't in there for the game 0:14:59.240 --> 0:15:01.640 back in week number two. Well, Michael Carter the second, 0:15:01.680 --> 0:15:03.720 how does his return impact that defense? 0:15:04.400 --> 0:15:07.080 It's huge because that gives you another defender who can 0:15:07.320 --> 0:15:09.560 you know, help slow down and exposive offense with the 0:15:09.600 --> 0:15:12.320 Dolphins too. And you know everybody talks about Waddell and 0:15:12.640 --> 0:15:15.800 obviously Tyreek Hill, but you know you also have your 0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:19.120 checking account. You know, Cedric Wilson as well, and Bratson Barrios, 0:15:19.120 --> 0:15:22.440 who you know Jets fans know particularly well too as well. 0:15:22.480 --> 0:15:24.680 And we know Mike Daniel likes to you know, scheme 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:26.560 up ways to you know, be able to get his 0:15:26.680 --> 0:15:29.760 receivers open. But now you got another guy and Michael 0:15:29.800 --> 0:15:32.240 Carter along with Brandon Eckles who you can also bring 0:15:32.280 --> 0:15:35.360 in in but to also help slow down this dynamic 0:15:35.400 --> 0:15:37.760 offense who can who loves to get those supposed to 0:15:37.800 --> 0:15:39.920 plays through the air, and having a guy like him 0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:42.760 is also can be a safety valve for also assaults 0:15:42.800 --> 0:15:43.960 and also DJ Reed, So. 0:15:44.160 --> 0:15:46.560 Just his with without him like it was big. 0:15:46.600 --> 0:15:50.000 They were really struggling at times, like stopping those disposed 0:15:50.000 --> 0:15:51.760 to plays that you saw on Black Friday. Now you 0:15:51.800 --> 0:15:53.760 get him back and you know you can hope he 0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:55.680
