1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: The game is over, New York World, un you play 2 00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:09,479 Speaker 1: to win the game. He's got as Jets lots down, can't. 3 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:20,480 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Official New York Jets podcast, a 4 00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: Jets three sixty production. What's Up Everybody? Ethan Greenberg and 5 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 1: Eric Allen here in the studio on the Official Jezz podcast, 6 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 1: Training camp is over. In simple terms here the cliff 7 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,920 Speaker 1: notes e A. How would you break down the play 8 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 1: of Josh McCown, Teddy Bridgewater and Sand outstanding. I thought 9 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 1: that the Jezz quarterback said, uh, tremendous training camp. I 10 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: didn't know what to expect from Donald coming in missing 11 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: three practices, but Jeremy Bates told us the other day 12 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 1: that he hit the ground running, that he came in 13 00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: there rerend a call use poise. His athleticism is very 14 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 1: impressive in terms of he's got great feet. I think 15 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,960 Speaker 1: that's what could potentially set him apart from other players 16 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 1: down the line, because he can buy himself time, set 17 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: himself up for new windows to throw through, and he 18 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 1: can pick up yards on his own. Donald did not disappoint. 19 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: I thought he's been a very solid and game accident 20 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater's resurgence has been inspiring. For lack of a 21 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 1: better word. I mean, this guy was out of the 22 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 1: basically out of the National Football League a couple of 23 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 1: years ago, goes down with that devastating knee injury, never 24 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: felt bad for himself. Instead, he looked at his mother 25 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 1: as a cancer survivor, as someone that really endured through something. 26 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: When Bridgewater was down on the ground and suffered that 27 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: devastating kne injury, he never felt sorry for himself. He's 28 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: come in here with a great way about himself, very positive, guy, 29 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: picked up the offense, been very accurate in games. Another 30 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: guy who's been good in the pocket in terms of 31 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 1: stepping up at the right time. Cool customer, poised, really 32 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: happy on a personal level for Teddy Bridgewater if even 33 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 1: if you don't know him, I think a lot of 34 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 1: people gotta look at Teddy bridge Water and say, wow, 35 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: you know how he handled this situation is the way 36 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,679 Speaker 1: you're supposed to do it. And you gotta credit his 37 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: private medical team and the Jets medical team because he 38 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 1: looks like the same guy who was a sending player 39 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,679 Speaker 1: two years ago in Minnesota. Finally, McCown, what can you 40 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 1: say about the guy? And a lot of veteran quarterbacks 41 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,799 Speaker 1: in the National Football League who just had a career year. 42 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:47,359 Speaker 1: They'd be winding in the situation. Privately like that he 43 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 1: wants to play, but McCown at the same time understand 44 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: the situation. Jets moved up from six to three to 45 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: get their quarterback in the future. Teddy Bridgewater is new 46 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 1: to this offensive system. They gotta get long looks at 47 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 1: both of these guys. They've done that during the summer, 48 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: So I don't know Green's I think it's been fantastic. 49 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: I think that when the Jets assembled the quarterback room 50 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,919 Speaker 1: of Josh McCown, Teddy Bridgewater and Sam Donald, everyone recognized 51 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: that it was gonna be a great room as people. 52 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,359 Speaker 1: But I think that the play has exceeded the expectation, 53 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 1: at least for me personally, because you didn't know what 54 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: you're getting. And Teddy Bridgewater, like you said, he was 55 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 1: out for almost two years and he comes back and 56 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 1: he's mobile in the pocket and he's having a great time. 57 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: How do you not root for Teddy Bridgewater. He's having 58 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: so much fun. He's dancing on the sidelines. I mean, 59 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: Michael Jackson comes on and he's dancing, getting in the 60 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 1: huddle calling the play and Sam Donald and Jeremy Bates 61 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: talked about it the other day about owning the playbook, 62 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: and the coolest story to me was again what Bates 63 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: said is that when Sam Donald went out to practice, 64 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 1: he was obviously a couple of days late because he 65 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: didn't sign his contract for the starter camp. He runs 66 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: out there, he's late to practice, the Jets welcome him 67 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: with a slope lap, and he goes out in the 68 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: huddle and he starts spitting plays out and calling plays, 69 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: and Bates said that takes rookie sometime a year to 70 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: be comfortable to do that, and he's just going off 71 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: of his recollection from from minicamps. So I think that 72 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: the room has been good for each other, and Todd 73 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: Bowles has said that it's the best room has been 74 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: a part of and Jeremy Bates echoed a similar sentiment. 75 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: But I think that the light is bright for the 76 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 1: Jets quarterback room no matter who wins the job. And 77 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: we're gonna dive more into the competitions in the battles 78 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 1: next week leading up to the final preseason game, and 79 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: then of course Cuts Day. Only one cut day this 80 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: year from fifty three used to be sent to fifty three. 81 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: Now it's just nifty three. But I think if you're 82 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: a Jets fan, you have to be encouraged by the quarterbacks. Yeah, well, 83 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: you gotta look back and say how far has this 84 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: organization comes since January one? In the locker room clean 85 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: up day, sam Donald's gonna experience bumps in the road 86 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: whether he plays in Motown or not. But he looks 87 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 1: to be the goods he does. And Teddy Bridgewater low risk, 88 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 1: high reward, and now how you're getting a high reward. 89 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: So let's just see how it all plays out. I 90 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: know everybody wants to predict the future as far as 91 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 1: the Jets gonna carry too, Well, it's funny you mentioned 92 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 1: that because we're gonna take some fan questions later on 93 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 1: in the show. We have some questions we didn't get 94 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 1: to last week, and Samuel wants to know. I'm bringing 95 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,160 Speaker 1: this up because he talked about Teddy Bridgewater. Is what 96 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 1: are your thoughts on trading Teddy Bridgewater to the Denver Broncos. 97 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 1: If so, what do you think the Jets can get 98 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: in return? Maybe an edge rusher or a draft pick. Okay, 99 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: so number one is everything is about two to tango. 100 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,799 Speaker 1: So what happens during a time like this when people 101 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: start seeing Bridgewater in a national level and how far 102 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,839 Speaker 1: he's coming, how well he's playing, is thing naturally look 103 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: for possible places. I haven't seen Denver too much. We 104 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: sat down for Onteer the facility the other day, Greens, 105 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: myself and you, and you told me check Kelly is 106 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 1: now the backup quarterback in Denver. If they're searching for 107 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 1: a backup quarterback, I don't think Teddy Bridgewater is a 108 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 1: backup quarterback. Now would they be viewing Bridgewater is a 109 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: potential guide to lead them? Because nothing against case Ken. Know, 110 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: I think he's a good quarterback, But you could make 111 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: the argument that Teddy Bridgewater as a much well has 112 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 1: a higher ceiling than case Ken. I would imagine that 113 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 1: people will call the Jets about Bridgewater it maybe even 114 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: Josh mccount. But as far as me looking at the 115 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 1: same possible fits, I think a lot of people play 116 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 1: fantasy football because everybody was talking about Tampa early on. 117 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 1: Right because James is out the first few games, Ryan 118 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,599 Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick is there the likelihood of anybody obtaining a veteran 119 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 1: quarterback seven to ten days before the season commences and 120 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: then that guy starting I think is extremely unlikely. I 121 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 1: agree with that as well. And again we're gonna get 122 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: some more questions later in the pod. But if you're 123 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: if you're Mike mccagnan, Greens, you take every call because 124 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: you have to. You have to look to see how 125 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: am I gonna improve my roster not only from the 126 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: depth perspective, not only from a depth perspective, but also 127 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: front liners. So, uh, it's gonna be interesting, you know that. 128 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: It's something Wan Pablo just writes in what's the best 129 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 1: case scenario for the Jets quarterback situation? Greens, Well, the 130 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 1: thing this is what's difficult for me, is because he 131 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 1: saw what happened last year with the Eagles when Carson 132 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: Wentz went down and that Nick Foles, who's a good 133 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: backup quarterback in this league, eventually took over the Reins 134 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: and they won the Super Bowl. So you want to 135 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: make sure that you have an insurance plan and if 136 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 1: whoever the starter is goes down. At the same token 137 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: is that the Jets don't have a second round pick 138 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: this year because they traded from six to three to 139 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: get Sam Donald. So if Teddy Bridgewater's value keeps going 140 00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: up during the preseason. I saw the stat that he 141 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: is the Eyes passer rating in the preseason. Well, he's 142 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: completing I think seventy three. I mean, they're playing very 143 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,239 Speaker 1: good football. And you can say that the preseason means nothing, 144 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: which is fine, but it all it means something to 145 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: some degree. I mean, it's still football. So if a 146 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: similar situation comes about when Teddy Bridgewater went down and 147 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: Sam Bradford was traded from the Eagles to the Vikings 148 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: for a first round pick. I'm not saying that Jets 149 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: are gonna get a first round pick for Teddy. But 150 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 1: if someone goes down and let's say they're they believe 151 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,439 Speaker 1: that team is a playoff contender and they don't have 152 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: the necessary backup in place, if they pony up the 153 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:43,559 Speaker 1: draft capital that mccagnet feels comfortable in return, I think 154 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: you have to trade Bridgewater and that right there might 155 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 1: be the best case scenario because you still have Josh McCown. Well, 156 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: you're playing very well splash By. You're basing this an 157 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,839 Speaker 1: assumption at Sam Donald's your week once started, correct and 158 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: that I think that he's gonna get traded. Well, so 159 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 1: I'm using him I'm taking him out of the equation. 160 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 1: So I think that's why the one thing that people 161 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:17,119 Speaker 1: point out is that externally is what does Teddy Bridgewater 162 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: bring to the team in the short term, Because let's 163 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: say Teddy does go out in the short term, he's 164 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: named the starter and he performs well and the Jets 165 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 1: are four and two. I'm just playing hypotheticals here. You 166 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 1: can't trade him mid season and then and then at 167 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: the end of the year is a free agent, and 168 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 1: who's to say that he's not going to sign a 169 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 1: good deal. So you had one year. So I'm just 170 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: looking at like a from a return value. If you 171 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 1: have the opportunity to get some of your draft capital back, 172 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: how do you not do it? What's you know that 173 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: plays out? I think it's very interesting debate because you 174 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: also don't like having Teddy Bridgewater is backup and not 175 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: trading him I think is a good move too, because 176 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: you know that Teddy bridge what you're seeing a glimpse 177 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: of what he can do. And I just think that 178 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: you can't have too many good quarterbacks on your roster. 179 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 1: You can't have too many good quarterbacks in your roster. 180 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 1: Sure that is a good question, Uh, Barbs writes in 181 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: is that empty quarterback coach position reserved until Josh McCown retires, Well, 182 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:19,079 Speaker 1: barbe good. Question number one is Jeremy Bates is the 183 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator slash quarterbacks coach. And the thing that kind 184 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: of flies a little bit under the radar. I know 185 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,959 Speaker 1: it doesn't internally because if you'll listen closely to McCown, 186 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: if you'll listen closely to Sam Donald, and if you'll 187 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: listen closely to Teddy, I'll talk about this guy, Mick 188 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:42,719 Speaker 1: Mick Lombardi's assistant quarterbacks coach. The guys enjoy working with them. 189 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: He's been praised throughout training camp, so he's doing a 190 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: nice job himself. If Josh McCown down on the line, yes, 191 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: he's thirty nine years old, probably not gonna play forever. 192 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 1: If he wants to be a coach down the line, 193 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: he certainly is going to be a coach somewhere. Talking 194 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: about I'm bringing back a pod question from last week 195 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: that we didn't get to because I believe it ties 196 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: into this is who's your favorite up and coming player 197 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: on this Jets team? Favorite favorite? Well, that's a tough 198 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,559 Speaker 1: question because you're asked me who's my personal favorite, and 199 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: I happen to really enjoy talking to Derek Bones Jones. 200 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: You a good interview with last year when okay, you 201 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 1: said the fellows like him too, you can see that. Yeah, 202 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,959 Speaker 1: I think that last year when he was drafted, I 203 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,079 Speaker 1: was told to talk to him and ask him about 204 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,319 Speaker 1: the Library, which is a popular bar at almost and 205 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: the Grove, which is a popular tailgating spot before football. 206 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: I was thinking about Morristown when he said the Library, 207 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:50,319 Speaker 1: But that's called the laundry matter, the laundry man. So 208 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:51,839 Speaker 1: so I was told to ask him about it, and 209 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,559 Speaker 1: he said, yeah, it's a good time. You gotta go 210 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 1: down there for an SEC game, all miss. So last 211 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:58,959 Speaker 1: year we talk and we just hang out. Now that 212 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,559 Speaker 1: I'm seeing him before warm in training camp or that 213 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 1: he had a very good training camp, I'd say it 214 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 1: makes me happy because one, I like him as a guy. 215 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: I think he's a good dude. So who's my favorite 216 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: up and calling player? I'd say him as a dude. 217 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 1: How about that apples? That's fine, And I still want 218 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: to go to an SEC game because I've never done that. 219 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 1: This is this is a common question asked darn Zingis 220 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:29,719 Speaker 1: are the Jets going to ding? Why is that fan? 221 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,439 Speaker 1: This guy's a Knicks fan. He's definitely a Jets and 222 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 1: a Knicks fan. Because it is a mix of Donald 223 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: and Porzingis that darn zingis Darren Zingis you gotta give 224 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,239 Speaker 1: this guy props or a lady from being very innovative 225 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: and creative. I guess they're playing Darnald and Porzingis together. 226 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: This is a Jets Knicks fan, I would have to assume. 227 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 1: All right, So are the Jets going to look to 228 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: upgrade the old line or pass rush before the season? 229 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: Oh wait, wait, wait, did just to kill two birds 230 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 1: with one stone? And he wants to know overall? How 231 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: does the all line look? So there you go, all right? 232 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 1: I think I think the Jets offensive line is okay. Um, 233 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: what I would say is, when you're missing two starters 234 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 1: in a preseason game, I don't know if I'm turning 235 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 1: the alarm on just yet. Brian Winners and Calvin Beachum 236 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,959 Speaker 1: are to your top performers, and those two sacks of 237 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:33,679 Speaker 1: uh Sam Donalds against the Washington Redskins occurred against backups. 238 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 1: With that being said, I think there is some depth 239 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 1: on the interior. I think any team in the National 240 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: Football League. When you look at it, most teams aren't 241 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 1: equipped to handle multiple injuries up front. You knock on wood, 242 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 1: you want your left tackle is going to be protecting 243 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 1: your quarterbacks mind side. You want him ready to go 244 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: for sixteen games. I don't think the Jets are in 245 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: a crazy bad position up front. I look at Winners 246 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,079 Speaker 1: and I think he's gonna be an upgrade of whatever 247 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 1: we saw from Winners last year because he had did 248 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: you know, awful abdomin injury. Then I look at Spencer 249 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: Long and say he's gonna be an upgrade center position. 250 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: I think Calvin Beecham's pretty solid at left tackle, and 251 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: carp is a good left guard, and then Brandon Shell 252 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 1: it continues to develop it right tackle. I think that's 253 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: starting five is pretty good. I'm not saying this is 254 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: the top five, top five offensive line in the National 255 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: Football League, but I think it's it's okay. And then 256 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: at the outside linebacker position, that the edge position, you're 257 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 1: always gonna be looking. Can you find that next grade 258 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: pass rusher? Can you get somebody he's gonna give you 259 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: some more juice off the edge? Right now, it's Josh 260 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: Martin and Jordan Jenkins and then Frankie Louvu and Brandon Copelan. 261 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: But getting looks there. But let's see who springs free 262 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 1: from the nineties to the fifty three cut down. You're 263 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: not gonna see a lot of big name, productive pass 264 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: rushers out there. I don't think he listen, they don't 265 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 1: grow on trees. Everybody's looking for him, So I think 266 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 1: it could be difficult. Can you acquire a guy by trade? Maybe? 267 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: I don't know. You've got to find a perfect situation. 268 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: Then you talk about compensation things like that. We actually 269 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 1: talked to Albert Rear from Monday Morning Quarterback today about that. 270 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 1: He said next year's draft class is loaded with edge guys. 271 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: That's of course he would say that because Ohio State. Yeah, 272 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: Joey's Joey's little yeah. Yeah, yeah. He could be at 273 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: the top five, right, it could be number one overall. 274 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: Matt Miller said that Nick Bosa on this Jets defense 275 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 1: would be a nightmare, but he doesn't think the Jets 276 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 1: will be in position to draft him. Come two. Food 277 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 1: for thought, all right, So we'll see what happens on 278 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 1: the old line and outside linebacker. Someone that didn't play 279 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 1: last week, Calvin Beacham. We'll see if he plays Friday night. 280 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 1: But before we talk about the third week in the preseason, 281 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: e A, let's talk to Dan Grozza, a friend of 282 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 1: the pot he was on before, he'll be on pretty 283 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: much throughout the season, and again he's the new pre 284 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: and post game voice of the Jets on ESPN Radio. 285 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 1: Let's see who Dan Grozza has his eye on for 286 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: week three of the preseason. All right, Dan, So obviously 287 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: all eyes gonna be on Sam Donald, Chatty Bridgewater Friday Night, 288 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 1: the MetLife Bawl, all that good stuff. But because you're 289 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: the voice of the Jets pre and post game, we 290 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: need something a little more than just the quarterbacks. What 291 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: are you looking out for? Who's the guy or the 292 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: guys that you're looking out for Friday night? Not a 293 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 1: pressure you put on my plate with that the pre 294 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: and post game voice, that's a lot great being with 295 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 1: you guys. By the way, Um, obviously, as you said, 296 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: everybody's gonna look to see the quarterbacks, and Todd Bowls 297 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: alluded to it on Wednesday at practice right when he 298 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: said the act that this is gonna be the dress rehearsal. 299 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: Everybody knows the third preseason game. Want to see the 300 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 1: ones out there, want to see how they handle adversity. 301 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 1: So I think that that speaks to the group as 302 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,360 Speaker 1: a whole, right, I mean, not everything is gonna go great, 303 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 1: And in a regular season game, when you're playing four quarters, 304 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 1: it's not just gonna be smooth sailing for you. You 305 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 1: might struggle for two to and a half quarters and 306 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 1: then get it going in the fourth to win a game. 307 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: So that's something to keep our eyes on. UM. As 308 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: far as positions are concerned, though, look, I know it's 309 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 1: not maybe high on the priority list. I'll start with 310 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 1: the kicker position right now, right, I mean, because Kiro 311 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 1: Santos was a guy who was signed in the off season, 312 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: thought he was gonna be the front runner. Well he's 313 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,440 Speaker 1: not part of the mix anymore. Unfortunately, couldn't shake that 314 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 1: groin injury. Taylor Berto Let's done a nice job here. 315 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 1: I know that there's still a little bit to be 316 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 1: desired in terms of the kickoffs that they want to 317 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,400 Speaker 1: see maybe get a little bit stronger. So we get 318 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: Myers who comes aboard here from Seattle. This is a 319 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 1: job that's important. Okay, you know old coach who used 320 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:55,879 Speaker 1: to coach for this team once said, no, you never 321 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 1: want to take the foot out of football. It's a 322 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 1: big part of the game. Asked the charge us from 323 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,640 Speaker 1: a year ago. You know, what are you quoting ourselves? 324 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 1: Think about the Chargers in the month of September last year. 325 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 1: You know, they dropped three games by like a combined 326 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,360 Speaker 1: seven points or something like that because they had such 327 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: a disaster at the kicking position, and that ultimately cost 328 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:17,919 Speaker 1: them a spot in the playoffs. Right, So, I mean 329 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 1: every single game is important. That's why I look to 330 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 1: see what we have from these kickers. Great point about 331 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 1: the kickers, because special teams coordinator Brand Boyer said this 332 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: week that, hey, listen, with the new kickoff rules, I 333 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 1: think you're gonna see more explosive returns. So conversely, on 334 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,120 Speaker 1: the other side of that, you want to have somebody 335 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: with the stronger leg to prevent that from happening. There's 336 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 1: a lot of strategy involved. You see the up in 337 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: New England. For example, Belichick what he's coached you know, 338 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 1: gus Kowski to do here. Since they move the kickoff, 339 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 1: kick the ball up high and kind of pinned them 340 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 1: down inside the five yard line, allow your returners to 341 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 1: get down there as opposed to just putting it through 342 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: the end zone giving them the automatic touchback. Let's see 343 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:00,200 Speaker 1: if we can pin them back even for or so. 344 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,160 Speaker 1: I'm sure that that's something that a lot of teams 345 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 1: are trying to implement. It makes perfect sense to me 346 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 1: as a matter of fact, too, the tight end position. 347 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: We've talked about it ourselves collectively. That you got all 348 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: these names right. You have a nice group there, but 349 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 1: we haven't really seen them all yet together healthy in 350 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 1: a game on the field. And that's what I'm looking 351 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 1: forward to here. You know now, the fact that leg 352 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: It's here, Herndon's here, Sterling, Walford, all these guys, you know, 353 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: let's see them get a good amount of playing time 354 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 1: with the ones with the two's sprinkle them in and 355 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 1: out here in this game on Friday night, and let's 356 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: see which couple of guys are gonna deserve most of 357 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 1: the playing time when we kick it off for real. 358 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:42,159 Speaker 1: You mentioned Chris Herndon. He will make his debut Friday night. 359 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 1: That's what head coach Todd Bowl said, Dan, thanks for 360 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: joining us. I love being with you guys. E A. 361 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 1: Now the question goes to you is who do you 362 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: have your eye on for the third week of the preseason. 363 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 1: And you cannot say quarterbacks because everyone and their mothers 364 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 1: as their eyes on the quarterbacks. Who are you to 365 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 1: say what I can't I can't talk about here on 366 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,119 Speaker 1: I'm making the rules that I'm making the rules Mayday, 367 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,640 Speaker 1: Marcus may he hasn't played all preseason. Todd Bowl said, 368 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:16,360 Speaker 1: I want to see New Jack City altogether. The starters 369 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 1: are expected to play at least a half, maybe into 370 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:22,360 Speaker 1: the third quarter. I think he needs game rops. He's 371 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: itching to get back out there. Uh, And I think 372 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 1: that would be good to see. So from a starting perspective, 373 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 1: you go any number of ways. You can look on 374 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 1: the offensive side and say Quincy and Noon was close, 375 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,399 Speaker 1: Terrell Priors close, and maybe those guys see action. But 376 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,120 Speaker 1: the way Todd talked about it, the way Marcus talked 377 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 1: about it, I think he's gonna make his preseason debut. Okay, 378 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 1: I would agree with everything you said, But the guys 379 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: for me that I want to see are the outside linebackers, 380 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 1: Brandon Copeland and Frankie Luton. For this reason, the third 381 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 1: week in the preseason is argely regarded as the final 382 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: dress rehearsal, so last year, Jordan Jenkins and Josh Martin 383 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 1: were the two starters predominantly for the Jets on the outside. 384 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: You know what they have, you know what they can 385 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,440 Speaker 1: give you. If Brandon Copeland and Frankie lou will get 386 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 1: first team reps in the first half, what can they 387 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 1: do against the Giants assuming first team? And what can 388 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 1: they do under the lights in the most realistic game 389 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: like atmosphere that you'll get in the preseason. So I'm 390 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 1: very curious to see what those two guys do. And 391 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,679 Speaker 1: just jumping off the fact that the starters will likely 392 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 1: play a half, if not a little bit more, what 393 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: do you hope to see out of the starting units? 394 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:44,360 Speaker 1: You know, he said it. He said it as much 395 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: the other day in the news conference. He wants to 396 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:51,679 Speaker 1: see guys in situations that are favorable that you've got 397 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 1: to play your way through. Rex Ryan used to always 398 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 1: talk about it in terms of playing on ice skates 399 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 1: and you put guys on ice, it's in the preseason 400 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:05,919 Speaker 1: to see what they can and can't do. Plane getting 401 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 1: plays are going to be important for some of these 402 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 1: injury guys coming back, but getting involved in game like situations, 403 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 1: and to say it's an unfavorable position like a second 404 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 1: and twelve and things like that. That's what Todd Bowles 405 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: talked about today. If not everything is gonna be a 406 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 1: first intent, Not everything's gonna be uh set up the 407 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 1: way you draw it up, how you're gonna react to 408 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 1: some adversity along the way. Um, so you know, you 409 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,159 Speaker 1: could look at little things. You could say, listen, if 410 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 1: Donald's in there, he starts, you want him to finish 411 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 1: with touchdowns in the red zone. I mean defensively, you'd 412 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:43,880 Speaker 1: love to say, well, maybe get a takeaway or two. 413 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 1: But I still I'm still of the old adage that 414 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: you're evaluating personnel in the preseason. But this is the 415 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,439 Speaker 1: last time where you, like you mentioned, the starters are 416 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: going to get to action. Thousands of questions are out there. 417 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: Who will stay up up, who will start at quarterback? 418 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: How that person play? All your questions will be answered 419 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,919 Speaker 1: Friday night. You can watch on New York Jets dot com. 420 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 1: How about that the MetLife Bowl Jets Giants Jets home game. 421 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 1: Again all your questions and then next week E.
