Inside the Jets is 12 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:51,159 Speaker 1: broadcast live from Vanderbilt Sports and Spirits here inside the 13 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 1: Windham Hamilton's Park Hotel. Eric Coleman, so much has changed 14 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 1: since the last time I saw you here at Underbelts 15 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: in December. It's a whole new team right now, management, 16 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:05,760 Speaker 1: head coach, you know, a lot of a lot of 17 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,680 Speaker 1: new blood came in here. I think it's a great thing. Yeah, 18 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: it all started with the Jets, uh making a coaching change. 19 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:16,199 Speaker 1: They hire Adam Gaze and then in June, they follow 20 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: that up and you get a new general manager and 21 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 1: Joe Douglas. And then even on the business side, we 22 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:25,680 Speaker 1: saw recently himI l Hi, a former intern who I've 23 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 1: known for twenty years, take over the president duty. It's 24 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 1: awesome and you know, it's all moving into the right direction. 25 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: I love the energy around the organization. Took a tough 26 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: l yesterday, but ultimately this team is moving in the 27 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: right direction, making all the right moves and changes. So 28 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 1: I think the great things are in store for the Jets. 29 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: You're a guy who is often around the organization, you 30 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: come back to the complex, you're out in the community, 31 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: do you feel a different vibe? Absolutely? You know there's 32 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: there's just a whole new energy here. Uh, you know, 33 00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: from Adam Gaze to you know, the new players that 34 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: the team is signed. It's a great energy. I think 35 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: the fans are excited about it. I think we saw 36 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: glimpses of the promise yesterday in the game, although we 37 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: you know, we couldn't finish it, but we're working progress. 38 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: I think they're doking all the right moves and uh 39 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 1: and changing the culture of the Jets organization. And I'm 40 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: not gonna bury the lead. Bottom line is the Jets 41 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: came up short in the season opener against the Buffalo Bills. 42 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 1: They had a sixteen nothing lead in the third quarter. Eric, 43 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 1: if I told you prior two opening day that the 44 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 1: Jets were gonna get four takeaways, score eight defensive points, 45 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: you would have took that and said money in the back, 46 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: money in the bank. I have took that seven days 47 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: out of the week. You know, every rule that you 48 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: have as as a player, you know they say you forced. 49 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: You know, you win the turnover battle, you're gonna win 50 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: the game. You hold a team under twenty four points, 51 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 1: you're gonna win the game. And with all those all 52 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: those things happening, you score points on defense, you're gonna 53 00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: win the game. When all those things happening, the Jets 54 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: still fell short. It has to be frustrating. But going 55 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: back at the film and watching, I'm sure they saw 56 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: a ton of missed opportunities. Uh, you know, they definitely 57 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: missed the presence of their linebacker. And uh, listen, this 58 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: is this is a learning lesson for this young teamj Hostlely, 59 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: Uh what a start he had to his Jets career. 60 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: We knew what an accomplished player he was, and he 61 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: was coming in here to take over Greg Williams defense, 62 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: the new Jets defensive coordinator, to be the quarterback at 63 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: his defense. And he opens up with the pick six, 64 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: and he also had a fumble recovery. He makes a 65 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: hell of a play in the third quarter where he 66 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: sprints to prevent a touchdown pass from Josh Allen to 67 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: John Brown, but in the process injures his groin. When 68 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: Mosley went down the tenor or that ball game changed it, 69 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: did you know? And c J did a great job 70 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: of making a big impact early in the game. He 71 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: was all over the field with the splash plays, but 72 00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: also in the run game, he was he was feeling 73 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: in the spots he was. He's the leader on the defense, 74 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: he's the communicator, he's the motivator for for all the players, 75 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: gets guys lined up. So when you lose a player 76 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 1: like that, the quarterback of your defense, it's gonna be 77 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: tough on the on the team. You know, you have 78 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: two young inside linebackers in there calling the game where 79 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 1: they're they're not used to calling the game. I'm sure 80 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 1: that it made an impact on the confidence of the players. 81 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 1: And obviously, you know, run fits were different, assignments were different. 82 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 1: You didn't have that big time player out there and 83 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: the team he was sorely missed yesterday. Yeah, inside the 84 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 1: Jets is supported by selective insurance to be uniquely insured. 85 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: So Mosley goes out of the game, Blake Cashman, a 86 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: fifth round pick out of Minnesota, enters the lineup. You're 87 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: doing a lot of shuffling her early in the season 88 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 1: because remember Avery Williamson was lost in the preseason to 89 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 1: a torn a c l Neville Hewitt is a starter 90 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: on the inside as well, and Adam Geye said today Hewitt, 91 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: who by the way, had one of those four takeaways, 92 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 1: came up with an interception. He said, he had a 93 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: hell of a game game. And then the Jets are 94 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: also juggling at outside linebacker across the way from Jordan 95 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: Jenkins because Brandon Copeland suspended for the first four games 96 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: this season. We saw Harvey Langy out there and also 97 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: Frankie Louisville getting a lot of ups. Yeah, I mean 98 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: dealing with diversity as part of playing football. They're gonna 99 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 1: be highs and lows during the season. They are gonna 100 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 1: be things that are unexpected that happened. But you have 101 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,559 Speaker 1: to adjust, You have to adapt, and it's always tough, 102 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: whether it's on offense or defense. Losing a starter in 103 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 1: the middle of a game. If you lose them, you 104 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 1: know during the week or prior to that game, you 105 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: have a whole week to game plan and to understand that. Listen, 106 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 1: I'm a backup, I'm gonna be starting. The whole team 107 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: gets that, gets to know that this is our guy. 108 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: We can support them. But in the middle of a game, 109 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 1: when you're you're you're fighting for the win and you 110 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: lose your player's kind of tough to adjust. And the 111 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: Jets showed that and maybe maybe showed a little lack 112 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: of maturity. So I'm gonna get to the offense here 113 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: in a second, because they lamented missed opportunities themselves. But 114 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 1: you're a guy played this game and you were in 115 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: evolved in contests like that one where the defense does 116 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: a lot of good things, but they don't close the 117 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 1: door in the fourth quarter. The Bills scored four teen 118 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,559 Speaker 1: points in the fourth quarter. You talk about run fits, 119 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 1: I've been selling singletary. Give him credit, he's an impressive 120 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 1: rookie linebacker, but the run fits weren't there, and that 121 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 1: Josh Allen got hot in the fourth quarter and Adam 122 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: Gay said, today we need improvement from the cornerback position. Yeah, 123 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 1: you know, the the defenses as well as they played. 124 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: I'm sure in the meeting room today the coaches were screaming. 125 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: The players were probably very frustrated because they played four 126 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: quarters of great football. But you have to finish. It 127 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. You know, as a defensive player, you can't 128 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 1: control what happens on the offense. All you can do 129 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 1: is control your assignment. And I'm sure they looked at 130 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: that film and saw some some misfits. They saw some 131 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: missopportunities in the secondary. They saw the cornerbacks playing a 132 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: little too passive now coming as aggressive as they should. 133 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 1: And there's a couple of missopportunities from dropped interceptions, some 134 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: things that this defense could have taken advantage of it 135 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,840 Speaker 1: and ended the game him on their own. What happened offensively, 136 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: the Buffalo bill is obviously a very good defense. Uh. 137 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: Their secondary awfully talented. You think of trade Avious White 138 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: like a hide Jordan player. Those guys disguise awfully well. 139 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: A lot of pressure packages. They got their hands on 140 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: a lot of balls. Uh, Sunday afternoon. Yeah, they did 141 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: a great job of mixing up the blitz is. They 142 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: brought the safety a couple of times that confused the 143 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: offensive line. It seemed defensively and in the secondary they 144 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: were challenging the receivers. Uh. You know, I thought that 145 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: even though they have a reputation and not giving up 146 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: big plays, I thought that we probably that the Jets 147 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: team could should have tried them taking them, taking some 148 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: more shots, take advantage of the extra man in the 149 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: box when Levian Bell was running the ball so well. 150 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: I think that you have to no matter if you're 151 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: gonna complete it or not, you have to test the 152 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 1: defense because if you don't, the safeties are gonna get 153 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 1: more aggressive, the corners are gonna start jumping the routes. 154 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 1: You have to find a way during that game to 155 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 1: take shots to keep them honest. That's interesting that you 156 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 1: say that, because Josh Allen had four turnovers on his resume. 157 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 1: Sam Donald had to cleant a clean statu sheet. He 158 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 1: did not turn the football over, but he did say 159 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: we have to hit on more big plays. And Adam 160 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: Gates said, hey, receivers got to execute better down the field. 161 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: And there were a couple of opportunities, and we saw 162 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 1: that with Robbie Anderson yesterday where him and Sam maybe 163 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: just to step off, otherwise you get that big play 164 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: and things changed completely absolutely. And this is not just 165 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: on Adam Gates. It's not just on Sam Donald. The 166 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: offensive line has to do a great job of protecting 167 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: the quarterback and the receivers have to get open. You 168 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: have to win one on one matchups. You have to 169 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 1: find those holes in the zones and I think collectively 170 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 1: as a group, they didn't do a good job of 171 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: doing that. And that's why you have the checkdowns to Crowder, 172 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: That's why you have the checkdowns and Levy on Bell 173 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: because we don't have time and no one's winning their 174 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: one on one matchups in the secondary. Yeah. Ryan Kalil, 175 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: the veteran center, he was frank about it. He said 176 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:02,079 Speaker 1: that our communication has to be better, and he pointed 177 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 1: the finger at himself. I like what the Jets did today. 178 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 1: Nobody was pointing fingers that were more so putting on 179 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: themselves that we gotta play we have to play better. 180 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: And Uh, with all that being said, when you go 181 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 1: watch the film on Monday, you're revealing what went wrong. 182 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 1: You're correcting those mistakes and you're moving on correct absolutely, 183 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 1: whether you win the game or you lose the game, 184 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: you have to be subjective. You have to watch that film. 185 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: As hard as it may be. Things may get blown 186 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 1: out of proportion a little bit when you lose a game, 187 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: but ultimately, you have to watch your mistakes. You have 188 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 1: to correct all the mistakes you made because that next 189 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: coming opponent is watching and they're looking to see those tendencies. 190 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: They're gonna check your oil. They're gonna make sure that 191 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: you got those things corrected, and you have to get 192 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: them rectified. Moving forward. All right, We're gonna talk later 193 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 1: about Levian Bell because he was outstanding in his first 194 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 1: performance with the Green and White. We're often running here 195 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: on inside that remember the calling number here is eight 196 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 1: nine one nine three, seven seven six. But we're gonna 197 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 1: come right back with Jets defensive alignment.

Is 218 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 1: it different going to work now that you have a child. 219 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: I mean, I would say it is because I remember 220 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: when I had my baby, it was like, all right, 221 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,959 Speaker 1: now someone's depending on me. Now it's easier to get 222 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 1: up in the morning because someone else is is counting 223 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: on me. Did you feel the same way, Yes, yes, 224 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: it definitely makes you even a better better player. So Bronson, Um, 225 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: I gotta imagine you can't have tight to go to 226 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 1: the stadium. Just yeah, I'm sure he's gonna have a 227 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: couple of trips to MetLife in his future. But uh, 228 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 1: football is in the family and he'll get a chance 229 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:58,079 Speaker 1: to know that pretty soon. Right. I don't know if 230 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 1: people know all about your background, but yeah, can you 231 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: talk about the football background and take us back to 232 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:07,199 Speaker 1: Utah a little bit? Okay, Yeah, I'll give you a 233 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: little snapshot here. Yeah, football has been a part of 234 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: my family's life. My dad's a football coach. He uh 235 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: played in the NFL for the Eagles. Um, I was 236 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 1: born in New Jersey actually when he was playing. I mean, 237 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 1: his whole family all played. He has you know, six 238 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: brothers that all played college football, and uh he's coached. 239 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 1: He coached for thirty years, ten years at University Utah 240 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 1: and then uh um twenty years at b y U 241 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 1: and then um my younger brother plays or he played there, 242 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,680 Speaker 1: and then my other brothers there. Right now, I got 243 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 1: about I mean, all all my cousins, we all played, 244 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: we've all played in college, and you know we've been 245 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 1: on different different teams in the NFL. So it's just 246 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 1: something that you know, it's an opportunity for my family. 247 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: So and everyone tried to take advantage of it. Yeah. So, 248 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: so at what point do you start Tika in the 249 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 1: three point stands, give him working on his drill already, 250 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: got him there, already, you know, to puld him up 251 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 1: and try to get him in his position.

That, oh, definitely, definitely, 262 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: I remember. I mean staying after games. I remember, you know, 263 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 1: being able as a kid. I didn't realize I was 264 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: around some you know, really good football players like Steve 265 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: Smith that we said utah, yeah, yeah, and even you know, 266 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: and a p I U was awesome.

They came up with a great victory. 273 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: But he was involved in an interesting, uh altercation I 274 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: guess on Saturday, correct, man, I gotta keep your head 275 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 1: out of that. You know, you know you're not gonna 276 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: be playing the rest of that game. So he got 277 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 1: ejected for it for hitting with leading with his helm, 278 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 1: leading with his helmet, any with his helmet on the quarterback. 279 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 1: So yeah, that's a good teacham moment. So so for 280 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 1: us growing up, you know, in college football, growing up 281 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 1: in the game of football. Who were some of your 282 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: inspirations beside your father and your uncle's.

Julius Peppers. 285 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: Love love watching him, and then you have J. J. 286 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 1: Watt coming in there. Um, I've always you know, being 287 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 1: a son of a football coach when you learned to 288 00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 1: love to watch film. So you know, for me, I 289 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 1: always and I I love you know, criticism too. I 290 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 1: you know, after any game winner lose, I look forward 291 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: to seeing the film and seeing the things that I 292 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 1: can improve on and get better at and uh, you know, 293 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 1: just being able to really sharpen my blade up for 294 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: the next game. So speaking to that, after watching the 295 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 1: game film, the defense was outstanding yesterday, but they left 296 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: a couple of plays out there. What were some of 297 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: the things that that you can improve on as a 298 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 1: defense as a whole looking at the film from last night, Yeah, definitely, 299 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 1: I'd say, and we really have to finish. It doesn't 300 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 1: matter what the score is. Uh, you know, it's it's 301 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: a game of four quarters and there's time on the clock. 302 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: We we need to be at our best and uh 303 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 1: continue to work so that we can you know, close 304 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: those games out. And I felt like as a defense, uh, 305 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 1: it's great to be a part of the defense that 306 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 1: you know wants to be great, has that desire and 307 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: is willing to put the work into uh to achieve that, 308 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 1: and so watching the film today was you know a 309 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: great opportunity for us to see, Wow, we still have 310 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 1: so much more that we can improve on it and 311 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: really even execute at a higher level. Bronson, what has 312 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 1: clicked here for you with the New York Chess because 313 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: this is a very deep defensive line. You're talking about 314 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: Leonard Williams, Steve mcclenn and they draft Quinnin Williams, Henry 315 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: Anderson ties for the team leading SAX last year. Nathan 316 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: Sheppard still on this team for we learned for Lorenzo 317 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: Potokasi is on this team as well. But you have 318 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 1: made yourself part of the defensive line rotation and you've 319 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: gotten in close to thirty snaps yesterday. Yeah, um, you know, 320 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: great defensive line like you just said. Uh, you know, 321 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 1: for me, uh, I just take it day by day. 322 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: I love being able to work and compete and being 323 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: able to be in a room with guys that are 324 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: the same. Uh. You know, it has helped me to 325 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: elevate my game and uh, you know each day to 326 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 1: you know, climb a little higher, get get a little 327 00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 1: better each day. And so it's been it's been great 328 00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 1: for or everyone to you know, pull out each other's 329 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 1: really pull out each other's best. How have you developed 330 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: most significantly, maybe since you were drafted by the Baltimore 331 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 1: Ravens a couple of years ago in the third round. Man, 332 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: I would say, um, just understanding the game at a 333 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 1: different level. Uh, you know, being able to you know, 334 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 1: have the game slow down and uh uh really become 335 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: even I thought I was a student of the game, 336 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: but I felt like, you know, I'm I'm I'm more 337 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 1: of a student of the game now and I'm continuing 338 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 1: to just push that uh push that mlope, push that 339 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,360 Speaker 1: button more and more and more. So, you know, from 340 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 1: last year going into this year in the offseason, what 341 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 1: were some of the things that you worked on as 342 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 1: a player individually that that can help you elevating to 343 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 1: help you made this team and be a key contributor. Yeah. 344 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: For me, I would say technique is is huge and 345 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 1: it's always been big for me. But um, I felt 346 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 1: like I honedn't even even more to really get into 347 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:04,160 Speaker 1: like the details and really refine uh my work and 348 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 1: being able to do it at a consistent level at 349 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 1: a high level is has been key for me. And 350 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 1: then also, I mean with that, there's a lot of 351 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 1: things that fallen into that, but I would say just 352 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: being able to execute my technique at a high level 353 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: time and time again. Bronson, can you take us into 354 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 1: the meeting room? What's it like being coached up by 355 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:28,680 Speaker 1: Greg Williams. He is a character, He's got a lot 356 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 1: of experience. He is funny, but he's gonna get after you. 357 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I love it. Uh man in the meeting room, 358 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 1: He's he's great. I mean, uh he gets after you, 359 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 1: and uh you know you you get after him. And 360 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:48,439 Speaker 1: it's just it's I mean, any player that wants to 361 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 1: be uh, you know, really really great, loves his loves 362 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 1: the way he does things because he's gonna push you. 363 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: He's gonna help you to reach your potential. Um, there's 364 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 1: there's nothing more he wants than for you to be 365 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: the best that you can be. And so you know, 366 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:08,960 Speaker 1: for me, I'm the type of person you know personally 367 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: where I'm I'll do whatever it takes, you know, whatever 368 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,880 Speaker 1: it takes. You know, whatever you say jump, he says jump, 369 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 1: I say how high? You know, I'm willing to do 370 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 1: whatever it takes so that I can, you know, be 371 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: be the player that I know I can be and 372 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 1: he knows I can be. He says to speeds, walk 373 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,399 Speaker 1: through and fast. Right, that's right, that's right. Um. And 374 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 1: he preaches for you guys to run to the ball 375 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: after every rep you take in practice. I think that 376 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 1: carried over in the game actions. You got the two 377 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:40,680 Speaker 1: thousand nineteen season on their way with the four take lists. Definitely, 378 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, you definitely, you know, you want to 379 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 1: have guys around the ball, and uh, that's something that 380 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 1: you know, uh, he preaches and uh, you know, we 381 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 1: go out there and get those guys around the ball 382 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:53,880 Speaker 1: because you never know when that ball might slip out 383 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: or you know, a guy might make mistake or someone 384 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 1: might get a hand on it and all of a 385 00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 1: sudden it's in your lap. So you gotta be ready. 386 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 1: But it's something that's drilled you guys take time each 387 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: practice to go over ball security for the offense and 388 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 1: obviously getting the ball out for the defense. Oh definitely. Yeah, 389 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 1: every every day we're constantly, you know, training ourselves to 390 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: take that ball away, take it away every and when 391 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 1: we go up against the offense. You know, we always 392 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:20,920 Speaker 1: want to practice that as well. You know, it helps 393 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 1: it helps both of us. So Bronston, you you know 394 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: you talked about being a student of the game. You 395 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: know you watched the film, made the corrections. At what 396 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:29,960 Speaker 1: point do you get into Cleveland? And have you started 397 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: getting into what Cleveland? Does you know? I mean, it's 398 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,920 Speaker 1: a twenty four rule. You know, you can't uh, you 399 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: don't matter if you win or lose. You know, you 400 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,120 Speaker 1: can't let your eyes get too high and your lows 401 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 1: get too low because it's time to work again. And 402 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 1: so you know, for me, um, that's really twenty four hours. 403 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:49,120 Speaker 1: After twenty four hours, I'm I'm looking ahead to that next, 404 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: to that next battle. And so for me, um, you know, 405 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 1: I you gotta prepare always, uh and take it serious. 406 00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 1: And time is everyone has the same amount of time 407 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 1: every week, and uh, so I try to jump on 408 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,120 Speaker 1: it as soon as, you know, as soon as I can. 409 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,719 Speaker 1: So I've already you know, kind of dealt into Cleanland 410 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 1: a little bit. I gotta ask you about your defensive captain. Well, 411 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 1: you got three of them in Jamal A, M C. J. 412 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: Molesley and Steve mcclennen. But let's go back and and 413 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:22,680 Speaker 1: talk about mostly he was fantastic yesterday he's the quarterback 414 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:26,679 Speaker 1: at this defense. Uh what does that specifically mean in 415 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: terms of getting you guys lined up? Uh, you know, 416 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 1: calling out checks at times when he sees something offensively 417 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 1: and just what did it mean to you guys how 418 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: he played? And then how deflating was it to see 419 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: him go down? Man? You know CJ is such a 420 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 1: you know, phenomenal player, um leader. Uh, he's uh, you know, 421 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:54,199 Speaker 1: everything you want in that position, and uh, you know, 422 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 1: for him to go down, it's hard, but it's really 423 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: next man up. And uh in the middle of the game. 424 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 1: You know, it's it's always hard, but hey, you know 425 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 1: we gotta look forward and get ready because the ball 426 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 1: is about to you know, be snapped again and you 427 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,800 Speaker 1: gotta be able to move forward. But he's he's great, 428 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 1: he's fun to play with, and um, you know, he's 429 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 1: just really a great, great leader of this defense. Eric 430 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: asked it before about the Cleveland Browns. What do you 431 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: think about playing Prime Time next week? And how charged 432 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: up it's gonna be at my life is you guys 433 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 1: try to even that record of one on one.

And uh for me as a player, you 436 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:36,359 Speaker 1: you can't wait for that type of uh you know, 437 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 1: moment situation. And uh you know, just as soon as 438 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 1: that that game ended, I was already ready to play 439 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: the next one. Let's go.

We're gonna take some calls here in 474 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 1: just a moment. Eight nine seven seven six. We were 475 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 1: just joined by Bronson Kfusy. What I like about the 476 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: Jets Defensively, it starts up front and Kafusy is gonna 477 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 1: play an important part because he's he's a rotational player 478 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 1: and that's gonna keep guys fresh in the fourth quarter 479 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 1: when you have to get after the quarterback. Yeah. I mean, 480 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:54,679 Speaker 1: he plays with the high motor and you need guys 481 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,959 Speaker 1: that that give that full effort every single play and 482 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,479 Speaker 1: keep that pressure on the offensive line. I think you're 483 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 1: gonna see him, just like you did Henry Anderson last year, 484 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 1: developing one of those players that's now he's being disruptors. 485 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 1: Now he's getting into the backfield, making tackles for lass, 486 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 1: getting hits on quarterbacks, and that's just gonna make this 487 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,439 Speaker 1: group so much better. Yeah. Injury of on the injury 488 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 1: front for the Jets, uh c J. Molesley suffered the 489 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: growing injury. Uh Adam Gates doesn't think he's gonna practice Wednesday. 490 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: Growing injuries can be tricky. Sometimes you don't want to 491 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: rush a guy back, but at the same time, he's 492 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 1: such an integral part of your team, so you gotta 493 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 1: find a balance. They're heading into Monday night football. Yeah, 494 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 1: it is a fine line, especially with the guy like 495 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: c J who is the quarterback. He gets everyone lined 496 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: up and it's Uh, you don't want to rush it 497 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: because that thing can nag you all year. So you 498 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:46,920 Speaker 1: want to take your time with it. As much as 499 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,479 Speaker 1: his presence will be can be missed on the practice 500 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 1: field or on the on the game field, you want 501 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 1: to make sure that he's close when he comes back. Yeah, 502 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 1: and rookie quinnin Williams he has an ankle sprain again. 503 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 1: He probably won't practice on Wednesday. There Where the Jets 504 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 1: have an advantage this week is that they get the 505 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:08,120 Speaker 1: extra day here early in the season and Monday night football. 506 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: So we're gonna take some calls now, eight dred nine 507 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:17,639 Speaker 1: one nine, three, seven seven six. Let's go to ira 508 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: he A. What's going on, guys? How are you? What's up? Buddy? 509 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 1: Pretty good? Pretty good? So, like you said, they're started 510 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:27,919 Speaker 1: the show for a show a year. I totally agree 511 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,680 Speaker 1: with you. A lot of changes. I think it gets 512 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 1: a really good hand across the board, coaching personnel and 513 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 1: you know, new business uh in place. But getting to 514 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 1: yesterday's loss, unfortunately just didn't worked out the way he 515 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 1: were hopefully gotta worked out. Um. You know, like most 516 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: NFL games, it comes down to a player two that 517 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 1: makes the difference. And whether it was market me dropping 518 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:54,400 Speaker 1: team interception before it led to the buffal of those 519 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 1: field goal uh, you know, and Henry Anderson the penalty 520 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,199 Speaker 1: was early unfortunate. Chris Mouldy got hurt on the next right, 521 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 1: but pretty much that they were in command of that game. 522 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,239 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, everybody's pointing in the kickers and 523 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 1: all this stuff to lead you know, I think Belle 524 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 1: Crowder and movie just tremendous out of the box. But 525 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 1: the bottom line is, yet the opposive line came up short. 526 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 1: And when you when you get full turnal reasons in 527 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: the first half of a ball game and you don't 528 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 1: put a team away, this is what could happen. Unfortunately, 529 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,240 Speaker 1: they're gonna learn the Hog way and hopefully they regroup 530 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: for the Browns and it's gonna be a tough game 531 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,680 Speaker 1: Monday night to oh and one teams, but you gotta 532 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 1: regroup and you gotta get one in the win column 533 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 1: this week, and hopefully they can just put this behind them. Yeah, 534 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: thanks for the call. I you totally agree, and sometimes 535 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:46,159 Speaker 1: you can. You know, the tailor discrepancy each week in 536 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 1: this league, it's not a small margin. It really is. 537 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,639 Speaker 1: You go up and down. You look at the rosters 538 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 1: and you look at the talent, and you say, well, 539 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,400 Speaker 1: that's a good team. You're facing a good team this week. 540 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: You're facing a good team next week. Goes on and 541 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: on and on. So you do have to capitalize on opportunities. 542 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 1: And we've been talking about it all night that when 543 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: you get four takeaways and score eight defensive points, you 544 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,919 Speaker 1: gotta win. Yeah, yeah, plus a plus four in the 545 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,959 Speaker 1: turnover margin, you just gotta win. Yeah, you do have 546 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: to win. But just like Bronson said, you have to 547 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: finish as well. You know, you can't just say, you know, 548 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: we got four turnovers in this first half, we scored 549 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 1: eight points as a rap. You know, sometimes the defense 550 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 1: has to pick up when the offense is slacking because 551 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 1: it's vice versa. You know, that's why it's a team 552 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 1: game that sometimes the special teams may pick up. So 553 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 1: the defense, you know, they're the strength of this team. 554 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 1: They have to continue to press on until the offense 555 00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: starts to click fully, and then that's when you start 556 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 1: to see the offense put up the points and you'll 557 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 1: see some of the big place from the defense. All right, 558 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 1: let's go to Richard in Manhattan. So Hi ri Ki 559 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 1: Before I get to my main point, the Livian Bell 560 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: two point conversion? What great play in NFL history? Did 561 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: that play remind you of? Huh? How about Championship game 562 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 1: Montana's twit Clark over the Cat. I gotta I know 563 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 1: the Cats. I gotta go look, I gotta go look 564 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 1: back at that. But that kind of playfellas. The only 565 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: thing was Donald wasn't rolling through? Is right? But okay, okay, 566 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 1: that's what I saw yesterday. I sort of chats with 567 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 1: home field advantage. I sorted chats with the better card back, 568 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 1: the better running back, the better lad receiver, the better 569 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 1: defensive player, a gift safety, a two point conversion, four 570 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 1: to nothing on turnovers, and a sixteen to nothing lead, 571 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 1: and they lost the game. So to me, Adam Gas 572 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:52,720 Speaker 1: was out coached Game one. That's all I saw or 573 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: I had last year was card Bowles was not this 574 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 1: was not that, was not this? What's not that? Last 575 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 1: year in game on Sam Donald looked like a ten 576 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: year pro. Yesterday he looked like a rookie quarterback with 577 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 1: a supposed offensive group. Now, I'm only basing this on 578 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 1: one game this year and one game that I saw 579 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 1: with Sam with todos last your opening day against Detroit, 580 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 1: and believe me, Adam Gates came up short. He should 581 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: have blamed himself and only himself instead. Game that's it, Fellers, 582 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 1: I'm out. Listen, Richard. I love your passion. I don't 583 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 1: necessarily agree with you, but your emotions there and you 584 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: want this team to be good, no doubt about it. 585 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,719 Speaker 1: By the way, Sam Donold's first pass in the National 586 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 1: Football League was returned the other way for a touchdown 587 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: by the Detroit Lions, and the Jets were down seven 588 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 1: nothing before people had gotten into their seats in Detroit. Also, 589 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: that was a takeaway affair where the Jets capitalized on 590 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: the Lions mistakes last year and one a convincing victory. 591 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 1: But I'm glad you brought up last year because everybody 592 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 1: said what the Jets were going to be after hammering Alliance, 593 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 1: and the Jets ended up being four and twelve. So 594 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 1: the lesson I'm taking from last year is, you know what, 595 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 1: It's Week one and a lot of people are gonna 596 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 1: make proclamations right now. Who's the league team, Who's a 597 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 1: playoff team, Who's a team to be reckoned with? You 598 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 1: gotta let it play out just a little bit. Oh, 599 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 1: by the way, your opponent Monday night is the Cleveland Browns. 600 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 1: Most people I heard in the off season talk about, well, 601 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns. They're contender for the a f C title. 602 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 1: You know what they did in Week one, they lost 603 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 1: by thirty points at home. Are you gonna write off 604 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 1: to Cleveland Browns right now? I'm not ready to No, 605 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 1: you know, I think they important thing to realize is 606 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 1: it's a one game. You know, yes, it's a it's 607 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 1: a game that the Jets need to win. You know, 608 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 1: it's a home game, is a division game. You know, 609 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:12,480 Speaker 1: they're they're you know, on paper, they their outmatched. They 610 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 1: outmatch the Buffalo Bills. But ultimately, when you lose a 611 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 1: football game, it's coaches and players. You know. I don't 612 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 1: necessarily think that Adam Gates got out coach. Adam Gates 613 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 1: didn't drop any interceptions, Adam Gates didn't blow any coverages, 614 00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 1: he didn't give up any touchdowns. You know, it's the players, 615 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:29,959 Speaker 1: you know, and the players have to learn to finish 616 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 1: and they're gonna have to learn from this. Uh. It 617 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 1: was a great start, great start for the defense. The 618 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 1: offense was slow. I think that it's the first game, 619 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 1: the first game this offensive line played together. It's the 620 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: first game Adam Gates has called a full game with 621 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 1: Sam Donald. I think that you just it's a starting point. 622 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 1: You continue to grow from it, and I think that 623 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 1: you'll see them open up the playbook, score more big plays, 624 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 1: and Sam Donald's just gonna get better. Inside the Jets 625 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 1: is presented by e Y Building a Better Working World. 626 00:32:56,720 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 1: You can call us at eight hundred three seven seven six. 627 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 1: Eric Ellen and Eric Coleman here at Vanderbilt's Sports and Spirits. 628 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 1: Levian Bell was fantastic in his return. I know it 629 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 1: says ninety two total yards. That's fine. I'm not really 630 00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 1: worried about the number. I went back and looked at 631 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 1: the film today. He was terrific vision, patience, and he 632 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 1: finishes every time he touches the ball. He has a 633 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 1: great motor and just a fantastic player to watch. I mean, 634 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 1: you mentioned it. He has the patients, but he also 635 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 1: does a great job of setting up blocks. You know. 636 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 1: Sometimes we'll be watching him go through a hole and 637 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 1: you're like, why is he hesitating? Why did he jump inside? 638 00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 1: As soon as he jumped inside, there's somebody blocking him 639 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 1: from outside and then he bounces out. He does a 640 00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 1: great job of anticipating blocks. He knows where where his 641 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 1: his defenders are coming from. Just a special player. I 642 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,720 Speaker 1: think that he showed yesterday he has no rust. He's 643 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 1: an elite player. He's the same player he was back 644 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 1: when he was playing in Pittsburgh. And I think as 645 00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 1: the offense grows, you'll see him start to get more carries. 646 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 1: He'll he'll get a hundred yards rushing, he'll have fifty 647 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 1: sixty yards receiving and be an even bigger part of 648 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 1: the offense. And we know the Jets had only one 649 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 1: offensive touchdown that came on a third down in the 650 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:14,479 Speaker 1: third quarter. But Levian Bell is a special player because 651 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 1: most running backs can't catch that ball. Throwing a little 652 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,840 Speaker 1: bit low by Sam Donald not not a bad pass, 653 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:25,360 Speaker 1: but that just showcases what kind of hands he has. Absolutely, 654 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 1: I mean, he does a great job out of the backfield, 655 00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:30,520 Speaker 1: and you know he's a mismatch against linebackers and it's tough. 656 00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 1: You know, I know that they you know Adam Gaze 657 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:34,879 Speaker 1: in the offense. They want to get time Montgomery more 658 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 1: involved in the offense. But when you think about those 659 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 1: two players in the backfield. Two guys that do great 660 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: job running in between the tackles. Two guys that can 661 00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: run routes or mismatches for any linebackers or any nickelback 662 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 1: that they go against. It's gonna be dangerous and I'm 663 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:50,399 Speaker 1: excited to see what Adam Gays does with these two players, 664 00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:52,720 Speaker 1: along with all the other weapons, Quincy and Nunewhall getting 665 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 1: him involved, Robby Anderson taking shots with him. It's gonna 666 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 1: be fun and I think that you'll start to see 667 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:00,880 Speaker 1: that thing open up. And all. By the way, Chris 668 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,359 Speaker 1: Herndon is suspended for the first four games, so you're 669 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,719 Speaker 1: adjusting on the run. This offense is gonna look a 670 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 1: lot different. Went Herndon is back as well. Let's get 671 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 1: to a couple more calls. Buddha, what's going on tonight? O, Hey, 672 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,279 Speaker 1: what's going on? Guys? Listen? UM. I know Richard a 673 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 1: little boom back, but he wasn't wrong with what he 674 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,759 Speaker 1: was saying. I called Anita, and I called Christum in 675 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 1: the morning before the game, and I said I was 676 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 1: concerned about the coaching because McDermott gives he got a 677 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:31,320 Speaker 1: lot with less and Um, the Jets and the Bills. 678 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 1: They're similar in talent. The Jets might even have a 679 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,800 Speaker 1: little bit more talent. But Adam Gage, if you notice, 680 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 1: even when he was in Miami, he has a problem 681 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 1: going away for the running game. The best player on 682 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 1: that field was Levian Bell, but Eva giv yesterday and 683 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 1: he went away from him in the fourth quarter where 684 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:50,400 Speaker 1: we need to go to him. Uh, thanks for a 685 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:54,279 Speaker 1: called Buddha. Uh listen. I think there's gonna be a 686 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 1: feeling out process and learning process. That's the first time 687 00:35:56,719 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 1: to a belt suited up for the Jets, and Gaze 688 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:04,799 Speaker 1: has said, this is the most talented running back I've 689 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,200 Speaker 1: ever coached. And he's coached some good ones. Yeah, he's 690 00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 1: coached some great running backs. And and Buddha's right, Leon 691 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 1: was the best player on the field yesterday. Yes, you 692 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: want to get them more carries. And I think that 693 00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 1: that's part of the maturation process. Even as a coach. 694 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:19,319 Speaker 1: You know, you go back and correct your mistakes, just 695 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 1: like the players do. And I think that they'll see 696 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 1: that Lebian should be featured more, but they also see 697 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 1: that there's a lot more of the things that they 698 00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 1: could have done. You know, the receivers need to win 699 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: their matchups on the perimeter, there's a lot more if 700 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,719 Speaker 1: you start to take deep shots. Now you're loosening up 701 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 1: those safeties. Now it's even easier for Lebian to get 702 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 1: to break off the runs, get into the secondary and 703 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:40,800 Speaker 1: make big plays. But it's a team effort, you know it. 704 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 1: It's gonna take something from everybody to go out there 705 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: and win these games. And we haven't even talked about 706 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 1: the kicking game because that way probably was the difference 707 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 1: between the Jets winning this football game, not the offense, 708 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,000 Speaker 1: not the defense. So you're gonna drop this right now. 709 00:36:55,560 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 1: We're got a commercials, we're gonna we're talk about it 710 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 1: some more, and we're gonna get to some good calls. 711 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 1: This hour's flying by on nine three, seven, seven six 712 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 1: will come right back here on Inside the Jets empty backfield. Down. 713 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,719 Speaker 1: It takes the shotgun, snap, drops back, it looks left, 714 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:24,239 Speaker 1: swings one left. How touchdown. It's us touchdown as a chet, 715 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 1: the first touchdown of the season for the Jet offense, 716 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:31,359 Speaker 1: and they had got a fourteen nothing leak. Remember, Jets fans, 717 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:33,880 Speaker 1: you can stream Inside the Jets Lives through the Jets 718 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 1: app presented by M ANDT Bank.

Well, the the phone lines are lightening up. 722 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 1: Allen Hahn is following us here on ESPN Radio. But 723 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:56,520 Speaker 1: let's take a couple more calls, and I wanna do 724 00:37:56,560 --> 00:38:02,799 Speaker 1: a quick preview of Monday Night. Let's go to Dan. Hey, Hey, 725 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:07,600 Speaker 1: r k R, how are you great? I've did a 726 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 1: die hard Jetan for forty years. I've had season tickets 727 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,279 Speaker 1: for twenty. I was at the game yesterday. You know, 728 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna blame it on the kicking that that 729 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:18,400 Speaker 1: was atrocious, but that wasn't it. My question is is 730 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:20,759 Speaker 1: when do we say Adam Gates is who he is? 731 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:25,920 Speaker 1: He was a subpar offensive, had subpar offenses in in Miami. 732 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:27,839 Speaker 1: I know it was one game, and you're gonna say 733 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:29,880 Speaker 1: it was one game, but you know, when he was 734 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 1: hired there was a lot of nervousness amongst Jet Twitter 735 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:37,840 Speaker 1: that his offenses in Miami were really sluggish. And what 736 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:42,239 Speaker 1: I saw yesterday was an electric and really did it impress? 737 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 1: So how concerned should we be that this is a 738 00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:47,800 Speaker 1: pattern that we've seen before and we'll continue in the future. 739 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 1: Thanks for a calling, Dan. Here's what I would say 740 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 1: about Gates. In his first year in Miami, he went 741 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 1: ten and six, The Dolphins made the play offs. The 742 00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:00,280 Speaker 1: second season, he did not have his starting quarterback act 743 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:04,959 Speaker 1: a former college receiver and Ryan Tannehill, so uh, they 744 00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:08,960 Speaker 1: went to the reserves there, had to bring Jake Cutler 745 00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 1: up and then last December that team, who was not 746 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:16,640 Speaker 1: overly talented, there were seven and six um So in 747 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:21,839 Speaker 1: his three years as as coach the Miami Dolphins, they 748 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:26,440 Speaker 1: did some good things down there. And Gaze, if you 749 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,759 Speaker 1: talk to people throughout the league and you think about 750 00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:32,880 Speaker 1: what he did. Is an offensive coordinator in Denver, not 751 00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 1: a lot of people will say, Okay, Peyton Manning was there. 752 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:40,799 Speaker 1: What also Chicago, this guy knows offensive football. I think 753 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,640 Speaker 1: it's a matter of time before things click for the 754 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:48,800 Speaker 1: Jets offense because he probably would tell you, in terms 755 00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 1: of being a head coach in this league, this is 756 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,000 Speaker 1: the most offensive talent. He said. Yeah, I mean, I'm 757 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,239 Speaker 1: not gonna there's no need to sit up here and 758 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:57,440 Speaker 1: defend Adam Gates right now. You know, I think he's 759 00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,840 Speaker 1: an excellent coach. He's the right coach for this team, 760 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:04,480 Speaker 1: and he's gonna help Sam Donald mature as a quarterback. Uh. 761 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:07,239 Speaker 1: The kicking game is a part of it. Yeah, just 762 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:09,279 Speaker 1: to be frank about it, if you make an extra point, 763 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:11,840 Speaker 1: which is a that's an automatic for an NFL kicker. 764 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:14,399 Speaker 1: It's a tie game, you make that field goal, you're 765 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 1: you're winning the game. Yes, there were plays out there 766 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:18,719 Speaker 1: that that were left. You know, there was there was 767 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,719 Speaker 1: some interceptions dropped, there was some mr assignments. Uh, you know, 768 00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:25,279 Speaker 1: some guys miscontained and let the quarterback get out of 769 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:26,960 Speaker 1: the pocket. You know, there was a lot of things 770 00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:28,880 Speaker 1: that happened in the in the course of a football 771 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:32,279 Speaker 1: game that results in the win or the loss. But ultimately, listen, 772 00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:34,279 Speaker 1: this is a one point game. If the Jets win 773 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 1: by one, now we're praising the team. Now, it's a 774 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,040 Speaker 1: whole different story. And I think that everyone's jumping to 775 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:42,399 Speaker 1: conclusions a little bit. Yes, it was a sole start. 776 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 1: It was not the offensive performance that the Jets wanted. 777 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 1: But I don't think it's time right now to question 778 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:52,800 Speaker 1: the leadership on this team. Yeah, it's way too early 779 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,879 Speaker 1: for that. There's no doubt about that. And like you said, hey, 780 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:59,719 Speaker 1: you hit Robby Anderson on that pass or one of 781 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 1: the two you down the stretch and you win the game. 782 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:06,200 Speaker 1: Then everybody's talking about the resiliency of this team. So 783 00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 1: things can change fast in the National Football League. Um, 784 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:13,480 Speaker 1: we'll have to see what happens Monday night against the 785 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,720 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns are gonna be a desperate team themselves. Let's 786 00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:21,880 Speaker 1: move on to Dan. You guys, what's going on? I 787 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 1: love this show, Thanks buddy, but listen, you know who 788 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:28,319 Speaker 1: I'm most passed that. It's not Adam Gaze. It's not 789 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,680 Speaker 1: same Donald, it's not the defense, it's not even a kicker. 790 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:33,680 Speaker 1: I'm pissed at the fans, the New York Jet fans. 791 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 1: All of a sudden, they start jumping ship when they're 792 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:40,920 Speaker 1: when they lose one game. Come on, now, support your team. 793 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,120 Speaker 1: This is one game. How many times in history does 794 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:45,680 Speaker 1: it has to repeat itself? We were all in too. 795 00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:48,839 Speaker 1: Started off, we went to the championship game two thousand ten, 796 00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:52,239 Speaker 1: started off and one, and we lost almost the same 797 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,239 Speaker 1: fashion against the Ravens, were by one point, and then 798 00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:57,719 Speaker 1: what and oh two? We started two and five and 799 00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 1: we won the division. Jet fans, grow up hair and 800 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 1: pull for your team. You know what, the sky is 801 00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:06,280 Speaker 1: not falling down from me. I'm a big time Jets fan. Okay, 802 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 1: I believe in my team. Well, he said, dance keeping 803 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,520 Speaker 1: the faith. I mean, I mean, listen, you can't jump 804 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:15,920 Speaker 1: to conclusions off of one game. I know it's frustrating. 805 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,239 Speaker 1: It's a home game. It's a terrible loss. Listen, you 806 00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:20,279 Speaker 1: lose to the Buffalo Bills, a team. When you look 807 00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 1: at the schedule for the Jets, this may this may 808 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,120 Speaker 1: buy them at the end of the year. But at 809 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:28,040 Speaker 1: the same time, you cannot panic on your team. This 810 00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 1: is this team is full of talent. He has a 811 00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:34,240 Speaker 1: great quarterback, phenomenal defense. Yes, there's some discrepancies that happened 812 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:36,680 Speaker 1: to the game, but it's the first game of the season. 813 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:39,239 Speaker 1: Is one game out of six. Team, forget it. Let's 814 00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 1: clear that game they're gonna improve and let's continue. Let's 815 00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:43,279 Speaker 1: judge the whole body of work, not just one game. 816 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 1: I would like to think of this as an evolution. 817 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:48,800 Speaker 1: We just watched Lavan Bell, who still is one of 818 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:52,319 Speaker 1: the top offensive weapons in football, make his debut with 819 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 1: the Jets. He was fantastic yesterday. Jamison Crowder, Yeah, would 820 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,879 Speaker 1: you have like to have more yards in a perfect world. Yeah, 821 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 1: the Jets have talked about making some more big plays. 822 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:06,360 Speaker 1: But he did have four team catches, so that tells 823 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:10,360 Speaker 1: me that there's some synergy there between him and his quarterback. 824 00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:15,000 Speaker 1: Are ready, Robbie Anderson, Quincy and noon Wa. Those guys 825 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:18,880 Speaker 1: can play. They've made plays in the National Football League. Okay, 826 00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:22,840 Speaker 1: the offensive line, that's the first time they took one 827 00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:26,959 Speaker 1: snap together in game action. They didn't play one play 828 00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:31,160 Speaker 1: together in the preseason. The defense comes up with four 829 00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 1: takeaways and they score eight points. They lost. They gotta 830 00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 1: figure something out with the kicking situation, no doubt about that. 831 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:43,240 Speaker 1: I can't. We only have an hour on the show 832 00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:46,239 Speaker 1: because we can talk about the kicking situation four more 833 00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:50,360 Speaker 1: than an hour itself. We got about fifty five seconds left. 834 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 1: The Browns expectations. What do you think about this matchup? 835 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,000 Speaker 1: Because this Cleveland team smartened from a loss. You think 836 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:00,799 Speaker 1: Jets fans are upset. It's gonna be a fierce game. 837 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:03,600 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a great matchup. Cleveland has a great 838 00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:06,759 Speaker 1: pass rush. I'm excited for the offensive line to see 839 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:10,360 Speaker 1: if they can protect Donald. Yeah, they got some some 840 00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:12,640 Speaker 1: ball players and you gotta watch out forward in the 841 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:15,560 Speaker 1: second and then in the Jets secondary, they're gonna have 842 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 1: some big time challenges with Odell Beckham, Jarvis Landry tight 843 00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 1: you know, they have great tight end. So it's gonna 844 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:24,759 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a good challenge. And I'm excited to 845 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,000 Speaker 1: see how the Jets respond at home, uh, you know, 846 00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 1: in the prime time. Yeah. And remember this is a 847 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 1: matchup of the number one overall pick in the two 848 00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:34,800 Speaker 1: thousand and eight teen draft. Picker makefield number three overall 849 00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:37,320 Speaker 1: pick in the two thousand and eighteen draft, saying Donald, 850 00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:40,439 Speaker 1: until next week, we're out.
