Mister mango, let's 11 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 1: start here. How much are you enjoying coaching at the 12 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 1: high school level. 13 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:37,000 Speaker 2: I'm loving it. 14 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 3: That's exactly what I thought, what I expected, football wise, 15 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:43,319 Speaker 3: but the amount of fun I'm having is so much 16 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 3: more than I expected. 17 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:48,200 Speaker 1: What has changed and what remains the same as far 18 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:51,559 Speaker 1: as football is concerned. That you're coaching now compared to 19 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:52,840 Speaker 1: when you were in high school. 20 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 3: Oh hey, film, Like we didn't have film in high school, 21 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 3: and so now we have sideline, we have end zone, 22 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 3: we have drone footage, We're able to watch everything from practice. 23 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 3: So like that blows my mind for these high school 24 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 3: kids that they have all this information available to them. 25 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 3: But it's still x as and knows and you know, 26 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,759 Speaker 3: still got to get the job done. So but it's 27 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 3: great kids, and that makes the job so much easier. 28 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: What do you like most about it? You love playing 29 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 1: and you love being in the room. But now as 30 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: a coach, what do you like the most about it? 31 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 3: I love the teaching aspect of it, you know, being 32 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 3: able to spread the joy of football and the knowledge 33 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:30,039 Speaker 3: of it and understanding the game not just what to do, 34 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 3: but why to do. And I think that's a big 35 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 3: proponent of it. And you know, it's just it's it's 36 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 3: a lot of fun. And I was very fortunate having 37 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 3: some great coaches in high school who helped me along 38 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,959 Speaker 3: not only football but life in general, and so be 39 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 3: able to get back in that same hopefully role for 40 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 3: some of these kids. You know, it's a lot of 41 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 3: fun too, and so it's just been it's been great experience. 42 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 3: It's nerve wracking, yeah, because more than it is a play, 43 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 3: yeah yeah, Okay, explaining as a player, you have final 44 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:08,079 Speaker 3: control over whether you win. A player you don't win 45 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 3: a play, you're still in a team aspect, and it 46 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 3: takes all eleven guys, but for your yourself personally, you 47 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 3: have control whether or not you win. As a coach, 48 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 3: you can lead the horse to water, but you can't 49 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 3: make him drink the water. So you have to hope 50 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 3: that everything that you've taught and you're drilled and done 51 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:33,079 Speaker 3: and hopefully repped multiple times sinks in and they win 52 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 3: the play. 53 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 2: But ultimately they have to do it. You can't do it. 54 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,239 Speaker 1: I find it so interesting that you're doing this now. 55 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: Do you have more of a passion for coaching than 56 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: he did playing or is it just a different passion. 57 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 2: Love is the same, Love is the same. It's a 58 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 2: different passion. 59 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 3: I love playing there was obviously one of the greatest 60 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 3: things I've ever done, probably other than my kids. But 61 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 3: the coaching, like the passion of it, the exact and 62 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 3: of it, is a lot of fun. 63 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 2: All right. 64 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 1: So a lot of our viewers and a lot of 65 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: people are listening right now official Jets podcasts, tuning in 66 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 1: and listening because they want to know about the Jets. 67 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: I just want to speak about your relationship with the 68 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 1: organization and how much it is meant to you over 69 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: the years. 70 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, obviously drafted here in two thousand and six, 71 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 3: and you know, coming right out of college, moving to 72 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 3: Strong Island when we were still at Hofstra and then 73 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 3: making transition over to New Jersey and settling here and 74 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 3: being a part of this team. As you know, we've 75 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 3: made growner roots deeper and deeper here in the Flora 76 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 3: Park area. And so it's it's been something being able 77 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 3: to finish out my career here. I only playing for 78 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 3: one team is something really special to me. It's a 79 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 3: great team to be a part of. This fan base 80 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 3: is as passionate as they come. You know, loyal is 81 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 3: all get out and you know, dying for a winner, 82 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 3: and you know that's something been striving since two thousand 83 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 3: and six to hopefully, you know, bring home to to 84 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 3: here in New York is that winner that everyone wants 85 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 3: and deserves. 86 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 2: Dying for a winner. 87 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: That's a great transition. 88 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 2: Right down. 89 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: The Jets are three and seven after this year with 90 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: so many expectations. You know, you live down the street, 91 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: you were here throughout the summer, You're helping us on 92 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: the content side throughout the year. How much do you 93 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 1: empathize with the fan right now because of what's actually 94 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: transpired and also with that being said, what kind of 95 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,479 Speaker 1: message would you have for the guys in the room 96 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: right now, because there's still seven games remaining in the year. 97 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: You play seventeen games, their season is not over. 98 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think so it's the duality of football 99 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 3: where you have the fan side, the fanatics, the people 100 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 3: that love this game live and breathe it, you know, 101 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 3: week in and week out, and you know, with the 102 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 3: expectations that were set at the beginning of the season, 103 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 3: you know, through the spring, through the summer, and to 104 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 3: be sitting where we are at three and seven as 105 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 3: a fan is frustrating and disappointing, and you have such 106 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 3: high hopes of where we were going. But then at 107 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 3: the same time, as a player, you know you're still 108 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 3: in the fight. It's not over by any means. And 109 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,599 Speaker 3: we had this in two thousand and nine. I want 110 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 3: to say, you know, Rex count us out of the playoffs. 111 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 2: Yes, infinitely. Yeah, So that well, there it goes. 112 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 3: You know, that's the seasons it was like, oh, Rex, 113 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 3: actually we're not mathematically eliminated. 114 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 2: We could still make it. Lo be hold, we still 115 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 2: made it. 116 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 3: And so that's just that's one of the funny things, 117 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 3: like it's not over until the math says it's over. 118 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 3: And so the guys in the room right now, they're fighting, 119 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 3: you know, and this is part of their struggle because. 120 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 2: They want a winner. 121 00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 3: Maybe not so much the same reasons that fans as 122 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 3: Jets fans, but they want to winter because it's a business. 123 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 3: They want to do their job. They want to do 124 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 3: their job to the best of their ability. And so 125 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 3: you're playing for twofold. You're playing for the name on 126 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 3: the front of the jersey obviously, so you can get 127 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 3: the awards and the accolations and everything, but you're also 128 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 3: playing for the name on the backyard jersey, right and 129 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 3: you know, whether you're here next year or you're somewhere else, 130 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 3: someone's gonna turn on the film and be like, hey, listen, 131 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 3: you were in dire streets at three and seven. What 132 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 3: did you do and did you play to the best 133 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 3: of your ability or did you fold up and call 134 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 3: it quits? Because if you folded up call it quits, 135 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 3: we're not going to give you another job. So I 136 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 3: think that's the tough part is that you know the 137 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,840 Speaker 3: players are are fighting tooth and nail to get the 138 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 3: job done, and you know, unfortunately, you know, sometimes it 139 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 3: doesn't work out the best way, and you know, that's 140 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 3: where you end up at three and seven, where the 141 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 3: fans are like, well it's all doom and gloom. 142 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,159 Speaker 2: You know, they're not even trying, and like, that's just 143 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 2: not the case, that's right. 144 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: And I was talking to Bart about this the other 145 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: day when we taped our first podcast this week, and 146 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: he said that guys can press in terms of they 147 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: want to do so much that maybe they're taking on 148 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: a different role or responsibility as opposed to maybe just 149 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: handling them what they have to And can you speak 150 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 1: to that is the guy who's to pivot for so 151 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: long that you need eleven on. 152 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 2: The same page. 153 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, you need eleven on the same page. And I 154 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 3: think the big thing is when you guys try to 155 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 3: do too much, they lose sight of the job that 156 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 3: they're supposed to do by themselves. And you know, and 157 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 3: it really comes down to, you know, the guys that 158 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 3: are working closely next year. So you know, maybe a 159 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 3: left guard it's like, hey, listen, I need to help 160 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 3: out my left tackle more than I think I do. 161 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 3: And so now he's trying to his mind, he's thinking about, hey, 162 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 3: let me help the left tackle, and all of a sudden, 163 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 3: now his plague is diminish because he's now thinking about 164 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 3: something else other than just playing left guard. 165 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 2: And you can go down the line. 166 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 3: You can look at the tight end being like, hey, listen, 167 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 3: I got to hit this route the right way because 168 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 3: you know, I need to be here for the quarterback. 169 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 3: But then you know if he's only thinking about the routes, 170 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 3: and now he's like, oh, well, but my run blocking 171 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 3: has gone down because I'm not thinking about my run blocking. 172 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 3: So you start to you know, when you're looking for answers, 173 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 3: you know when you're going through a rough spell, and 174 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 3: you know, the biggest thing you need to do is 175 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 3: just go back to the fundamentals. Do my job and 176 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 3: trust to the guy. Next means going to do his job. 177 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's not sexy for the fan, and you 178 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: get that too, because they do want to see ultimately 179 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: the winner. But this is a process oriented business, right 180 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: like you have to take care of the process. You 181 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: have to put one foot before the other. How difficult 182 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: was it for you? This is a different time. I'm 183 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: older than you, but you played in a different era. 184 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,559 Speaker 1: Do you think how difficult was it for you at 185 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 1: times to ignore the noise externally, if at all? And 186 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,680 Speaker 1: how difficult. Do you think it is for these guys now? 187 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: And how do you kind of put a force field up? 188 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's got to be crazy difficult now. You know, 189 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 3: when I first started, there was no such thing as 190 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 3: social media. I think Facebook was still just for college kids, 191 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:10,559 Speaker 3: and so like, there was no it wasn't in your 192 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 3: face every day. Fantasy football was still there, but not 193 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 3: to the level that it is now. There were no dms, 194 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 3: you know, and so if you wanted to cut out 195 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 3: the noise, you just didn't buy a newspaper. And now 196 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 3: all of a suddenly, I'm good, I'll turn on ESPN 197 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 3: and I don't read a newspaper, Like I don't hear 198 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 3: any noise. Now, you know, it's twenty four to seven. 199 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 3: You know, you have your phone with you at all times. 200 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 3: You see it, you know, come across. So it's got 201 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,319 Speaker 3: to be a struggle. It's got to be very difficult 202 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,079 Speaker 3: to tune it out. But you know, that's the world 203 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 3: we live in. And then that's what you have to do. 204 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,839 Speaker 4: Game day and every day. Score a jewelry touchdown with 205 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 4: Kendra Scott, shot Fashion and find jewelry fit for another 206 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 4: winning season at your local store or Kendriscott dot com 207 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,839 Speaker 4: shine Bright do good with Kendra Scott talented roster. 208 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: We didn't know that, and I think a lot of 209 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: people probably are tired of talking about the talent. But 210 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: there are very good players here and we've seen it 211 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 1: at times throughout all these games, but for whatever reason, 212 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: not on a consistent level. So I guess that's the 213 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:16,719 Speaker 1: battle right now. 214 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 3: It is and you talk to you know, you listen 215 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:20,439 Speaker 3: to Aaron talk about the last I think there's three 216 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 3: weeks of practice being you know, some of the greatest 217 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 3: weeks of practice that we've had, but it doesn't translate 218 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,959 Speaker 3: on the field, and you know, that's disappointing, and so then. 219 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 2: You try to figure out why, like why is it 220 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:31,239 Speaker 2: not translating? 221 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 3: And that's something that you know, I think really only 222 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:38,559 Speaker 3: the players and the coaches can can really diagnose, because 223 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 3: the fans don't see that. They don't see what happens 224 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 3: Monday and Saturday. They just see what happens on Sunday, 225 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 3: and so that's difficult also for the fans to hear like, oh, 226 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 3: we had a great week of practice, but then you know, 227 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 3: we came out and laid an egg here. 228 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 2: There, and you're like, well, you know, why did you 229 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 2: do it? 230 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 3: And so it is difficult, it's frustrating, but it's something 231 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 3: that you know, great teams are able to work around. 232 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: Do you really consider it in the NFL seventeen one 233 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: game seasons, meaning that this is completely different than Major 234 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: League Baseball or hockey or basketball, that you only have 235 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 1: seventeen of these and then when you play a game 236 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:19,079 Speaker 1: like you did in Arizona where everybody was disappointed with 237 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: ultimately the execution there, how quickly can you turn the page? 238 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 3: I think that's the great thing of the NFL schedule 239 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 3: is that you have to turn the page quickly, otherwise, 240 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 3: you know, you're just you go into this death sprile 241 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 3: or of like, well, well we could have would have 242 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 3: should have? You know, we had that forget which game 243 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,599 Speaker 3: it was with Rex. We had a terrible game, and 244 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 3: we came out and laid an egg and came we 245 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 3: came back here and he was that you know, we're 246 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 3: sitting in team meeting. He was everybody outside outside and 247 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 3: he took the game ball from that game and buried 248 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 3: it in the ground. It was like, we're done with that, 249 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 3: We're moving on. 250 00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:58,319 Speaker 2: You know. 251 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 3: It's that was a part of my French is shitty, 252 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 3: shitty game, but we move on, and that's. 253 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 2: What we did. 254 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,679 Speaker 1: That was the debacle at Giletta. I think Jimmy Lantern 255 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: got hurt on the practice field Friday, and you guys 256 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,439 Speaker 1: went to the Patriots. I think they buried the. 257 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 2: Ball after that, and then that probably was and then. 258 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: Not too long after that, you totally flipped the script 259 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 1: there in New England divisional playoffs beating Brady in his building. 260 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 3: So you have you only have so many opportunities, so 261 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 3: you have to make the most of them when you 262 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 3: get them. 263 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: We were talking before. You like Jet's young center, Joe 264 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: Timm What do you like most and what's his future 265 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 1: looking like? 266 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 3: You know, his future looks great, you know, as long 267 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 3: as he keeps working and keeps doing well. What I 268 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 3: love the most is that he is a hard worker. 269 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,960 Speaker 3: You know, he's a tallest center at six six, I believe, 270 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 3: but he bends well and he can move, and so 271 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 3: I think those two things combined. 272 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 2: You know, he's still a young guy, so we're still 273 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:56,439 Speaker 2: going to get stronger. 274 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 3: He's still going to get as he starts to learn 275 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 3: some of the wild vet moves and everything. I think 276 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 3: the opportunity to be able to have Aaron behind him 277 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 3: is giving him a great base. You know, I was 278 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 3: able to have Chad Pennington behind me to start, and 279 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,079 Speaker 3: you know, Chad taught me so much about protections and 280 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 3: you know, how to see defenses, red defenses. So to 281 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 3: have that experience going forward, it will be a great 282 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 3: opportunity for him. 283 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 1: So no matter what happens in the future, invaluable experience 284 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: him working with the Hall of Fame passer behind who's 285 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: got twenty years experience, who's done everything, is one of 286 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 1: the greatest players to ever play. 287 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely. 288 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:35,559 Speaker 3: And I think you know, you watch Aaron on the 289 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 3: sidelines and the way that he works with the guys. 290 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 3: You know, he doesn't keep anything, you know, close to 291 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 3: his vest. He talked to the guys, and you know, 292 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 3: he's a teacher while being a coach and while being 293 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 3: a player. Yeah, and I think that's a great thing 294 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 3: for a lot of these young guys. You see that 295 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 3: a lot with him and Garrett Wilson. You know, after 296 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 3: each play practice they'll sitting back and talk about, all right, 297 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 3: what you year, what did you do that he ran 298 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 3: there out this way? Or throw it this way? And 299 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,319 Speaker 3: so I think that's invaluable for these young guys. 300 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:10,199 Speaker 1: You are proud alum of the Ohio State University. What 301 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 1: do you what have you make? What have you taken 302 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 1: from Garrett's development here from the time he was in 303 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: c bus to now in his third year in the NFL. 304 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 3: He's doing great, you know, proud, proud Buckeye alumnus to 305 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 3: have Garrett here and doing what he's doing. And you know, 306 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 3: it's great seeing him, you know, continue to find his 307 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 3: way here and keep continuing to get better, which is awesome. 308 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 3: You know, he's a fantastic receiver and he's a better person. 309 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 3: So that combination, you know, here on the beloved New 310 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 3: York Jets is a great thing. 311 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 1: But what do you think about his talents? 312 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 2: What sets him apart? 313 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: Right now? I think he's at sixty five receptions and 314 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: chase with the Bengals at sixty six, so he's right there, 315 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: and then he's third or fourth and receiving. 316 00:14:57,760 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 2: Yards right now. 317 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 3: I think he's an act for finding the ball. I mean, 318 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 3: you know, he has the ability to go up and 319 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 3: find the ball anywhere within that catch radius, and you know, 320 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 3: I think that's a big you can't teach that that's 321 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 3: just kind of a talent that you have, and so 322 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 3: he's got one of the great talents of it. 323 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 1: So if you're down there in the locker room, you 324 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 1: know what the situation is, you're three and seven and 325 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 1: you got the buy coming up, the approach to this game, 326 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 1: specifically the Colts, and just getting one and feeling better 327 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: about yourself before you get a little bit of rest 328 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 1: and maybe the coaches have more time to take things 329 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 1: in and do a self scout. 330 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 3: Definitely, and I think that's a big thing. You know, 331 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 3: you definitely want to get a win before going into 332 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 3: the buy. It's always difficult, you know, going to buy 333 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 3: with the loss because then you dwell on it for 334 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 3: way too long. So getting a win would be great 335 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 3: and then you know, finally get to take a breath. 336 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 3: You know, we've had a wild schedule of different primetime 337 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 3: games and you know, Thursday night games and everything. So 338 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 3: to be able to sit back and you're like, all right, 339 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 3: here's where we're at, here's what we do well, here's 340 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 3: what we're not doing, so well, let's fix it and 341 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 3: let's you know, finish out strong. 342 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: With the changes, especially what happened their earl in the season, 343 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 1: you're bringing Jeff Wallbrooke, you promote him. 344 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 2: To head coach. 345 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: It's it's gonna be huge having this time for the 346 00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: entire staff because not only is Albrooke promoted to head 347 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: coach where he's seen overseen the entire operation, but to 348 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: Downey took on the play calling duties as well. 349 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, and so I think this kid's a chance for 350 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 3: the staff to be able to sit down and be like, 351 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 3: all right, here's here's what we're doing.
