Eric Decker runs a little dig and is 0:00:08.800 --> 0:00:12.440 on time from Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Jets strike first 0:00:12.440 --> 0:00:16.680 and opening touchdown drive to start the game. Live from Calandralus, 0:00:16.760 --> 0:00:20.200 Italian village and called Well New Jersey. It's inside the 0:00:20.280 --> 0:00:25.040 Jets on ninety eight point seven ESPN. Here's Larry Hardisty 0:00:25.239 --> 0:00:29.080 and Eric Allen. Good Monday evening, everybody, and we welcome 0:00:29.120 --> 0:00:32.720 you to the Ovechio Cafe here at Colandus, Italian Village 0:00:32.720 --> 0:00:35.879 and called Well New Jersey. Larry Hardisty, Eric Allen. We're 0:00:35.920 --> 0:00:38.440 here until lay the clock on nine eight seven ESPN. 0:00:38.560 --> 0:00:40.440 We'll take your calls tonight a little bit later in 0:00:40.479 --> 0:00:42.960 the show one eight hundred nine, one nine, three, seven, 0:00:43.000 --> 0:00:46.400 seven six will be joined by Quincy Innuma and also 0:00:46.520 --> 0:00:52.680 Ta Mario Davis. Yesterday was what I consider as close 0:00:53.440 --> 0:00:57.880 to a game where everybody played well all three phases. 0:00:57.960 --> 0:01:02.480 Defense was outstanding, offense was brilliant, especially in the first half. 0:01:02.840 --> 0:01:05.520 I guess what even specialty other than the missfield goal 0:01:05.680 --> 0:01:09.120 special teams. The converence was excellent. It was as good 0:01:09.160 --> 0:01:11.480 of a win as the Jets have had in the watch. 0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:13.960 It was a complete thirty minutes of play, no doubt 0:01:13.959 --> 0:01:17.560 about that, Larry. Uh. The Jets finished against the New 0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:20.760 York Giants, overcoming a ten point fourth quarter deficit to 0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:24.479 win a thriller in overtime. But we had talked about 0:01:24.520 --> 0:01:27.280 it last week, when where the Jets going to play 0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:30.679 a complete game. They entered this ball game with a 0:01:30.720 --> 0:01:33.200 two game winning streak, and a lot of folks during 0:01:33.200 --> 0:01:36.320 the week said, hey, this is your classic trap game. 0:01:36.760 --> 0:01:40.039 The Titans coming in here with the rookie quarterback and 0:01:40.560 --> 0:01:44.360 three wins. Marcus Mariota and the Jets came out, took 0:01:44.400 --> 0:01:46.800 care of business. That was a sign of a mature 0:01:46.880 --> 0:01:50.240 football team, a team that is growing, peaking at the 0:01:50.360 --> 0:01:54.840 right time. They went out and dismantled the Titans in 0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:58.080 the first half, five scoring drives. They take a twenty 0:01:58.160 --> 0:02:00.560 seven and nothing lead at halftime. They come up with 0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:04.720 the takeaway buster screen with the interception to Mario Davis 0:02:04.720 --> 0:02:08.000 who just entered. Looks terrific tonight. We'll look at this 0:02:08.080 --> 0:02:11.440 guy with the suit right now. But you mentioned special 0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:14.520 teams as well. Uh. They were moving to Mario round 0:02:14.760 --> 0:02:17.920 defensively a couple of times. I saw him at and 0:02:18.120 --> 0:02:21.840 they confused Marcus Mario's And then you mentioned special teams. 0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:25.400 The coverage units were tremendous. Quincy Andumla did a good 0:02:25.480 --> 0:02:29.040 job there in the first half, and the offense what 0:02:29.160 --> 0:02:33.720 I really liked. The balance was there against the Giants, Larry, 0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:36.240 the Jets had to pass to win, and that's great. 0:02:36.320 --> 0:02:39.639 They showed another aspect of their game and other facet 0:02:39.720 --> 0:02:42.480 that they can take care of. But against the Titans, 0:02:42.480 --> 0:02:45.240 it was all clicking. Chris Ivory rushed for over a 0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:48.480 hundred yards. They put a team away early. It was 0:02:48.560 --> 0:02:52.280 as complete as a third uh uh thirty minutes of 0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:54.640 play that you've seen from the New York Jets so 0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:57.800 far this season. They kind of coasted from there, you know, 0:02:57.960 --> 0:03:01.239 thirty to eight. But now you set yourself up your 0:03:01.280 --> 0:03:04.600 eight and five. Everybody at home who's listening right now 0:03:05.120 --> 0:03:07.640 is looking at the Kansas City Chiefs, is looking at 0:03:07.680 --> 0:03:10.880 the Pittsburgh Steelers. But Todd Bowle said it today, Larry, 0:03:11.040 --> 0:03:13.200 the only team that I'm rooting for is the New 0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:15.480 York Jets. Will look up at that end of the 0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:18.720 season and see where we are. But they're playing really 0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:21.120 well right now. You want to keep winning that's your 0:03:21.200 --> 0:03:22.760 job right now is to continue to win. Let's talk 0:03:22.760 --> 0:03:24.720 a little bit more about the offense, and before we 0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:27.760 talk about what Powell did. You mentioned Chris Ivory, the 0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:31.680 wide receivers again were spectacular, and Eric Decker and Brandon Marshall. 0:03:32.160 --> 0:03:34.239 But hey, I want to talk about the offensive line 0:03:34.240 --> 0:03:38.000 because the offensive line yesterday was outstanding. The time that 0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:41.040 Ryan Fitzpatrick had yesterday and has had really for most 0:03:41.080 --> 0:03:42.960 of the season. He hasn't been touched. He has the 0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:45.600 white jersey almost all the time, no dirt on it, 0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:48.280 so he's been playing well, and that offensive line has 0:03:48.320 --> 0:03:50.480 been searching forward. They've done the phenomenal job. Yeah, the 0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:53.040 offensive line did play very well. We talked about it 0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:57.440 last week. Is the Titans do have a talented defensive front. 0:03:57.560 --> 0:04:01.600 They get after the quarterback. But Fits had time to 0:04:01.680 --> 0:04:04.360 throw and when he had to make early decisions, as 0:04:04.400 --> 0:04:07.440 we've seen from him throughout the year, that ball gets 0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:12.600 out of his hands quickly. You mentioned Decker and Brandon Marshall. 0:04:13.120 --> 0:04:15.840 Is there a wide receiver tannem in the National Football 0:04:15.920 --> 0:04:20.039 League better than these two right now? It you'd be hard, 0:04:20.320 --> 0:04:24.640 are you against? These two combined for twenty touchdowns? Now? 0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:28.440 Through thirteen games, that already ties the franchise highest season 0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:32.680 franchise high as far as those guys are concerned. Decker 0:04:32.760 --> 0:04:36.760 closing in on a thousand yards, Chris Ivory, you mentioned 0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:39.200 the run game. He goes for a hundred for the 0:04:39.240 --> 0:04:43.159 third time this season. He's closing in on a thousand 0:04:43.279 --> 0:04:45.440 yards for the first time in his career. The New 0:04:45.520 --> 0:04:48.520 York New York Jets now could have a three thousand 0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:52.120 yard passer, Ryan Fitzpatrick, two a thousand yard receivers, and 0:04:52.160 --> 0:04:55.480 Brandon Marshall and Eric Decker in a thousand yard rusher 0:04:55.960 --> 0:04:59.080 and Chris Ivory and oh, by the way, the defense 0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:03.120 is play well. The Roll Reeves comes back in the lineup, 0:05:03.480 --> 0:05:06.760 one of the NFL's finer cornerbacks, so you add him 0:05:06.800 --> 0:05:10.160 to the mix, and the Jets are relatively healthy with 0:05:10.279 --> 0:05:13.400 three games left in this season. Now they go to Dallas, 0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:16.760 a short week of prep. But uh, you know, you 0:05:16.800 --> 0:05:19.840 look at that a f C landscape, and we can 0:05:19.880 --> 0:05:22.120 talk about the Pittsburg Steelers, we can talk about the 0:05:22.200 --> 0:05:26.000 Kansas City Chiefs, we can talk about the injuries these 0:05:26.000 --> 0:05:28.560 teams are dealing with. The Denver Broncos are dealing with 0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:31.960 the quarterback position. They turned to Osweiler. You know, when 0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:34.880 is Peyton Manny going to come back back? Andy Dalton 0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:38.479 goes out yesterday. Now it's a j McCarron. And but 0:05:39.080 --> 0:05:41.960 for a Jets fan, you got Saturday night, let's see 0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:44.280 what the Jets can do against the Dallas Cowboys. Then 0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:48.040 you can look at Pittsburgh Steelers Denver Broncos clash on 0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:51.760 Sunday afternoon in Pittsburgh. Yeah, absolutely so. Once again, as 0:05:51.800 --> 0:05:53.200 we said, the Jets know what they have to do, 0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:54.880 they know what's in front of them. Just win games 0:05:55.200 --> 0:05:58.960 and just think about this, Eric, they have already they 0:05:59.000 --> 0:06:01.760 have doubled the wind told it from last year. They've 0:06:01.800 --> 0:06:05.360 doubled their win total. And so already you've seen progress 0:06:05.360 --> 0:06:08.680 already that success your ultimate gold is going to be 0:06:09.240 --> 0:06:12.760 you know, yeah, and those guys aren't gonna uh, you know, 0:06:13.240 --> 0:06:15.680 rest on their laurels. Tob Bowls was asked about this 0:06:15.760 --> 0:06:18.440 a couple of weeks ago. He said, they asked a 0:06:18.520 --> 0:06:21.280 reporter asked, if you guys don't make the playoffs, do 0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:23.960 you consider this season of failure? And he said yes, 0:06:24.120 --> 0:06:26.000 because this is a guy played eight season in the 0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:29.840 National Football League. He want to ring with the Washington Redskins. 0:06:29.960 --> 0:06:33.080 He was a defensive coordinator last year in Arizona, where 0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:36.440 that defense carried the Cardinals to the playoffs. So the 0:06:36.480 --> 0:06:39.440 bottom line is, yes, he wants to coach this team 0:06:39.440 --> 0:06:42.719 to the postseason, but on a bigger picture, on a 0:06:42.800 --> 0:06:46.000 macro level, this team did win fourth the four games 0:06:46.080 --> 0:06:50.520 last season, and Mike mccagnet did a tremendous job helping 0:06:50.920 --> 0:06:53.640 UH take her with this roster in the offseason. You 0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:56.559 think about the trades that he made in a span 0:06:56.600 --> 0:06:59.520 of a couple of days, acquiring Brandon Marshall from the 0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:03.240 Chicago Go Bears and then a day later getting Ryan 0:07:03.279 --> 0:07:07.440 Fitzpatrick for a late conditional pick from the Houston Texans. 0:07:07.720 --> 0:07:10.800 Little did we know what Ryan Fitzpatrick was gonna give 0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:14.720 you this season, UH twenty touchdown passes. He threw three 0:07:14.760 --> 0:07:18.360 touchdown passes against the Texans, So now now he's up 0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:22.160 to a career high twenty five touchdown passes and the 0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:25.240 Jets draft, we can look about what mcagnan did in 0:07:25.320 --> 0:07:29.000 his first draft. Unfortunately, band news for the Jets today, 0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:32.640 Devin Smith UH suffered that I believe the A C 0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:37.160 L tear but and he's likely to go on season 0:07:37.280 --> 0:07:41.040 ending into reserve. But Leonard Williams had a sack yesterday, 0:07:41.400 --> 0:07:46.080 Lorenzo Moulden is playing more time. And then you talk 0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:48.720 about what this coaching staff has done with the veterans. 0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:53.040 Moe Wilkerson three sacks yesterday, Larry twelve on the season, 0:07:53.080 --> 0:07:56.200 Now that's a career high for him. Uh So, I 0:07:56.240 --> 0:07:59.520 think Todd Bowls has done a tremendous job and assembling 0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:01.480 his staff. He did a great job by getting a 0:08:01.520 --> 0:08:03.920 guy like Chan Gaily here who was out of the 0:08:04.000 --> 0:08:06.200 league for a year or two, but he came in. 0:08:06.360 --> 0:08:08.360 He really know, he really knows what to do with 0:08:08.400 --> 0:08:10.360 an offense. And then you pare him up with Ryan 0:08:10.360 --> 0:08:13.480 Fitzpatrick and we see these guys working well together, and 0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:17.920 Todd Bowls and Casey Rogers yesterday they really had Mariota 0:08:18.280 --> 0:08:20.160 on his heels. And I can't wait to get to 0:08:20.240 --> 0:08:23.720 Mario Davis up here to talk about some of the 0:08:23.800 --> 0:08:27.320 looks they were given him, because I was confused just 0:08:27.400 --> 0:08:31.480 watching it on film. Well that's because listen, the Jets 0:08:31.520 --> 0:08:33.760 do their homework. They were ready, They knew what to 0:08:33.760 --> 0:08:36.280 expect from him. And when you look at how Marcus 0:08:36.320 --> 0:08:39.520 Mario has played he's really played. He hasn't played bad. 0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:42.440 He you look at his ability to run with the football. 0:08:42.720 --> 0:08:44.760 You look at his ability, and coming in they had 0:08:44.760 --> 0:08:47.040 the great status about what he's done against the Blitz 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:49.360 and all the other stuff, and he's done well against 0:08:49.440 --> 0:08:51.599 that when he's seen it a certain way. Obviously the 0:08:51.679 --> 0:08:54.360 Jets showed him something they had not seen before. And 0:08:54.400 --> 0:08:55.800 the other thing about it, we find that he could 0:08:55.800 --> 0:08:59.199 catch the football yesterday, yeah, you know, and the guys 0:08:59.200 --> 0:09:00.719 are not gonna be had be with that. So that 0:09:00.840 --> 0:09:03.880 prevented the shutout. Right, So the Titans didn't get in 0:09:04.000 --> 0:09:06.880 the end zone on a halfback pass, but by and 0:09:06.960 --> 0:09:10.360 large that defense played so well. They continue to get 0:09:10.400 --> 0:09:15.760 off the field on third down, and conversely, the offense 0:09:15.920 --> 0:09:19.160 was really good on third down and they continue to 0:09:19.280 --> 0:09:22.840 convert in the red zone. Fits is always tough on himself, Larry. 0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:25.360 He scores twenty seven points in the first half, but 0:09:25.679 --> 0:09:27.800 he's still looking at those drives and I did with 0:09:27.880 --> 0:09:30.880 Randy Bullock field goals. I mean, bottom line is, though, 0:09:31.080 --> 0:09:34.400 you'll take twenty seven points in the first half anytime 0:09:34.440 --> 0:09:37.320 you line up. Jets did a number of good things. 0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:40.920 You mentioned bilal Paul before we see him being a 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:44.360 factor each and every week in the past game. He's 0:09:44.400 --> 0:09:47.679 got explosive legs. You pare him up with Ivory right now, 0:09:47.720 --> 0:09:51.439 there's a lot to like about this football team as 0:09:51.480 --> 0:09:55.240 they head into Dallas and play against a Dallas Cowboy 0:09:55.320 --> 0:09:59.280 team that still has a lot of talent. Really struggled 0:09:59.440 --> 0:10:02.280 big time in the turnover department, last in the NFL 0:10:02.320 --> 0:10:06.800 and turnover margin, and they've been battling without Tony Romo. 0:10:06.920 --> 0:10:09.400 But the Jets will have to be ready for a 0:10:09.520 --> 0:10:12.440 spirited effort prime time. You know the Cowboys are gonna 0:10:12.440 --> 0:10:14.960 want to play while in they're in their house, and 0:10:15.400 --> 0:10:17.560 hopefully you can get this one and just you don't 0:10:17.640 --> 0:10:19.880 keep these winning ways alive. But this is the first 0:10:19.920 --> 0:10:23.200 three three game win streak of the Todd Bowl. Todd 0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:26.800 Bowls are It's amazing, Eric that Dallas is still not 0:10:26.800 --> 0:10:29.079 out of it. I mean, even with nine losses, they're 0:10:29.080 --> 0:10:31.480 still matter. I don't even want to think about that. 0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:35.560 Even I don't even want to think about unbelievable.

All right, partner, let's bring in Jets inside 0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:35.280 linebacker Damario Davis. Who Tomorio Actually, maybe I should introduce 0:11:35.360 --> 0:11:40.160 you as Jets rush linebacker because he saw you playing 0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:46.720 an interesting position yesterday. As you guys definitely did confuse 0:11:46.840 --> 0:11:50.400 the young quarterback on a couple of those plays. Without 0:11:50.440 --> 0:11:54.960 giving away state secrets, how were you able to create 0:11:55.000 --> 0:11:59.000 some chaos upfront against the Titans. Well, every since the 0:11:59.000 --> 0:12:04.720 season started, I've been very impressed by Todd's third down package. 0:12:04.800 --> 0:12:07.679 He uses a lot of different people and a lot 0:12:07.679 --> 0:12:11.000 of different ways on third down, so it's it's hard 0:12:11.080 --> 0:12:13.679 for the quarterback to identify who the MIC is. If 0:12:13.679 --> 0:12:15.560 he can't find out who the MIC is, he can't 0:12:15.600 --> 0:12:20.360 set his protection. Um, and we're generally blissing maybe seventy 0:12:20.720 --> 0:12:23.679 eighty percent of the time. So UM, if we can 0:12:23.720 --> 0:12:26.400 create some kind of confusion, then it helps the bliss 0:12:26.400 --> 0:12:28.920 of the rush get home. Man. So UM, it's been 0:12:28.960 --> 0:12:31.480 like that every week. UM, and then it's just one 0:12:31.480 --> 0:12:34.760 of the weeks where it was really spot on the 0:12:35.520 --> 0:12:38.280 situation now where you guys are really comfortable with the 0:12:38.559 --> 0:12:41.400 package overall, and now more and more things start to 0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:43.600 get added to it where it really makes you even 0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:47.319 more comfortable with with what the scheme has been. UM. 0:12:47.360 --> 0:12:49.040 I mean at this at this point of the year, 0:12:49.080 --> 0:12:53.040 you're you're pretty comfortable and pretty set on UM. You 0:12:53.080 --> 0:12:55.319 know how things are going to operate. You know, coming 0:12:55.360 --> 0:12:57.520 into the year, you have a new coach, new staff, 0:12:57.559 --> 0:12:59.600 everybody's kind of feeling each other out, getting used to 0:12:59.600 --> 0:13:02.880 how things UM work. And I think now everybody kind 0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:06.720 of can anticipate what each week is going to bring UM. 0:13:06.800 --> 0:13:09.640 So yeah, that does make it UM a little more easy. 0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:11.280 And I think the coaches are still trying to learn 0:13:11.360 --> 0:13:14.920 the players or UM or we're still trying to learn 0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:16.920 the players and weeks prior. So it kind of made 0:13:16.960 --> 0:13:19.600 them a little hesitant UM to know how much they 0:13:19.600 --> 0:13:22.559 could throw with us and UM maybe they want to 0:13:22.600 --> 0:13:24.640 put in certain things, but they had to kind of 0:13:24.679 --> 0:13:26.960 pull back because you know that maybe they didn't think 0:13:26.960 --> 0:13:28.640 the player was ready. But now they know where they 0:13:28.720 --> 0:13:31.040 have in each player UM and it makes them more 0:13:31.080 --> 0:13:34.000 comfortable UM and what they can put in during the 0:13:34.000 --> 0:13:37.760 week tomorrow. What's the feeling like pre snap? Is there 0:13:37.760 --> 0:13:41.559 a sense of we got them? When the offensive linemen 0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:45.480 are trying to point out protections and the quarterback is 0:13:45.559 --> 0:13:48.160 kind of looking at examining and trying to figure out 0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:51.880 what's going on. Like you're saying, identifying the mic linebacker 0:13:52.360 --> 0:13:57.120 and you guys have four lots four which would be 0:13:57.320 --> 0:14:01.600 typical linebackers are customarily be playing a little bit off 0:14:01.640 --> 0:14:05.080 the line, but they're sitting right there at the line 0:14:05.080 --> 0:14:08.640 of scrimmers. What's so, what's the feeling like when you 0:14:08.840 --> 0:14:12.600 see the offense kind of scram on up front. Um, 0:14:12.640 --> 0:14:14.760 you never know, you never really know when you have 0:14:14.960 --> 0:14:18.080 them until the play happens and you get the sack. 0:14:18.240 --> 0:14:20.880 You know, it's never um a hundred percent like we 0:14:21.000 --> 0:14:23.760 got him. What you do get is to where you 0:14:23.800 --> 0:14:26.760 can understand how they're gonna block and who's gonna block you. 0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:30.040 And if you know who's gonna block you, then it's 0:14:30.080 --> 0:14:34.240 it becomes uh a lot easier versus like running into 0:14:34.240 --> 0:14:36.560 a wildfire. You're like, this guy's blocking me, so all 0:14:36.600 --> 0:14:38.000 I have to do is beat him and I can 0:14:38.040 --> 0:14:41.160 get home. Um, And then when you come to the sideline, 0:14:41.200 --> 0:14:44.320 everybody's talking. The D line is first is usually the 0:14:44.360 --> 0:14:47.480 first guys who realize who's blocking and their protection scheme, 0:14:47.840 --> 0:14:50.160 and once they know, it makes the game a lot easier. 0:14:50.200 --> 0:14:53.240 So maybe the first drive of the second drive is 0:14:53.240 --> 0:14:56.280 when they generally get a clue or inkland about who 0:14:56.480 --> 0:14:58.400 what what type of protections they're doing. But once the 0:14:58.480 --> 0:15:02.040 D line has it, they uh they passed that around 0:15:02.080 --> 0:15:05.000 information around everybody else and then we're pretty much set 0:15:05.000 --> 0:15:08.120 for our bliss. So has this has injuries made you 0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:10.520 realize just how deep this defense is, the fact that 0:15:10.880 --> 0:15:12.520 you guys have been able to go and you haven't 0:15:12.560 --> 0:15:14.280 really missed the beat, even though people have been out. 0:15:14.280 --> 0:15:17.320 The reef its has been out, but reached has been out. 0:15:17.360 --> 0:15:19.760 There's been guys out on the on the the linebacker 0:15:19.760 --> 0:15:21.800 in the D line spot. Do you realize just how 0:15:21.800 --> 0:15:24.600 deep this team is? UM? That was something that identified 0:15:25.040 --> 0:15:28.760 day one UM in training camp, you know, and I 0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:31.160 remember I remember earlier in training camp, me and Dave 0:15:31.240 --> 0:15:33.280 Harris was talking and we were just talking about the 0:15:33.320 --> 0:15:35.760 difference in this team is so much depth. We never 0:15:35.800 --> 0:15:39.000 had that before. UM. Every position is two and three 0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:42.480 dep you know, which which helps us out tremendously because 0:15:43.160 --> 0:15:45.280 what you need to be able to do is rely 0:15:45.440 --> 0:15:48.280 on that second and third guy to UH coming if 0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:50.480 somebody get hurts. But you also need to be able 0:15:50.520 --> 0:15:53.720 to bring in that second third guy. Maybe the number 0:15:53.720 --> 0:15:56.640 one guy doesn't match up as well with a certain 0:15:56.640 --> 0:15:59.080 type of receive or a certain type of tighten or 0:15:59.080 --> 0:16:00.880 a certain type of back where you can bring in 0:16:01.480 --> 0:16:05.040 UM a guy on a certain package, UM, depending on 0:16:05.120 --> 0:16:07.440 what type of look the offense is giving you. UM. 0:16:07.520 --> 0:16:10.760 So you know, being able to bring in UM those 0:16:10.800 --> 0:16:14.800 guys you know, off the sideline and those packages has 0:16:14.880 --> 0:16:18.760 really helped us to be more multiple where you uh, 0:16:19.160 --> 0:16:21.520 certain teams can't be as multiple because they can't rely 0:16:21.680 --> 0:16:24.600 on that second third guy like they want to. UM. 0:16:24.680 --> 0:16:26.480 And then of course when you have the injuries, you 0:16:26.480 --> 0:16:28.200 don't you don't miss a beat when you have guys 0:16:28.240 --> 0:16:31.960 who can play and have played, and um, you know, 0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:34.680 we don't just have guys on our on the sideline 0:16:35.040 --> 0:16:38.160 who who can play but have never played. We have 0:16:38.240 --> 0:16:41.040 guys who have proven that they can play on other teams, 0:16:41.480 --> 0:16:44.280 you know, and prove that they can play and starting roles. 0:16:44.640 --> 0:16:47.400 How much do you enjoy when you get the opportunity 0:16:47.560 --> 0:16:49.760 to rush the past or yesterday he came up with 0:16:49.800 --> 0:16:52.040 the sack and you also had a couple of quarterback 0:16:52.120 --> 0:16:55.160 hurries as well. UM yeah, I mean I'm always just 0:16:55.200 --> 0:16:58.040 trying to add to my game. Um, anything that I 0:16:58.040 --> 0:17:00.240 can do to healthy team, whether it's covering, what is 0:17:00.760 --> 0:17:03.800 being a box linebacker? Um, everybody likes to rest the 0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:06.600 rest of quarterback because it's very simple, just beat demand 0:17:06.600 --> 0:17:09.160 in front of you and then get to the quarterback. Uh. 0:17:09.280 --> 0:17:11.560 So that was an interesting dynamic. That was one of 0:17:11.600 --> 0:17:14.000 the first times my coaches used me in that role 0:17:14.680 --> 0:17:18.480 where I was just a primarily a pass rusher, and UH, 0:17:18.560 --> 0:17:20.280 I enjoyed it because, I mean, you kind of get 0:17:20.280 --> 0:17:22.680 into a game with the tackle, UM and just kind 0:17:22.680 --> 0:17:24.640 of um about it. You kind of get to learn 0:17:24.720 --> 0:17:26.600 what kind of moves he's trying to do to stop 0:17:26.640 --> 0:17:29.960 you and things like that. So it's interesting. It was 0:17:30.040 --> 0:17:32.159 very fun and you know, I hope they used me 0:17:32.160 --> 0:17:34.640 in that role again. That's the bunch of Damario Davis, 0:17:34.760 --> 0:17:38.359 Larry Harstein, ericallenliveat Collandras here on ninety ESPN. We're listening 0:17:38.440 --> 0:17:41.880 to Inside the Jets. You have the perfect vantage point 0:17:41.920 --> 0:17:44.879 to watch this offense. How it's progressed from the beginning 0:17:44.920 --> 0:17:46.840 of the season. We talked about it every week, how 0:17:47.200 --> 0:17:49.480 Fitzpatrick just gets more and more in tune with his 0:17:49.520 --> 0:17:52.359 wide receivers and Decker and Marshall, the run game and 0:17:52.400 --> 0:17:56.439 everything from the defensive position. How good is this offense? Uh? 0:17:56.680 --> 0:18:00.399 Especial this year, A very special. UM. I lay with 0:18:00.800 --> 0:18:03.880 a lot of deep different types of offenses. But UM, 0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:07.119 the thing that they really have is chemistry, you know, 0:18:07.200 --> 0:18:10.119 and UM, that's that's You can have the weapons, you 0:18:10.119 --> 0:18:13.639 can have the pieces, but if everybody doesn't um compliment 0:18:13.800 --> 0:18:17.000 someone else or do something that compliments the system, then 0:18:17.000 --> 0:18:19.440 it's not gonna work. UM. I think I think Chan 0:18:19.600 --> 0:18:22.840 does a lot of different things. He understands his players 0:18:22.840 --> 0:18:26.400 and try to use them UM in ways to to 0:18:26.400 --> 0:18:31.080 to help UM to help exploit the defense. UM the 0:18:31.119 --> 0:18:34.280 way he uses uh Chris Ivory in the run game 0:18:34.359 --> 0:18:37.160 and and switches the speed up with bringing in Blau 0:18:37.600 --> 0:18:40.840 uh and run situations and pass situations. UM. And then 0:18:41.040 --> 0:18:43.520 when they start to crowd the box, you can't leave 0:18:43.600 --> 0:18:46.560 Decker and uh Marshall one on one, so it opens 0:18:46.760 --> 0:18:49.960 opens the past game. UH the way they use Quincy 0:18:50.000 --> 0:18:52.960 and blocking situations and and and uh low routes and 0:18:53.000 --> 0:18:55.560 over routes uh. And then how they were using Devon 0:18:55.680 --> 0:18:59.080 to to stress the team Berkeley like he uses uh 0:18:59.320 --> 0:19:02.719 uh those eyes and in ways that UM allows them 0:19:02.720 --> 0:19:05.119 to use your strength and it explores the defense and 0:19:05.160 --> 0:19:08.439 puts the defense and compromising positions. So the thing you 0:19:08.520 --> 0:19:10.320 never want to get into as a defense to me 0:19:10.440 --> 0:19:12.280 been defensive player, you never want to get into a 0:19:12.320 --> 0:19:14.040 situation where we're trying to stop one thing and they 0:19:14.080 --> 0:19:15.560 hit you with something else, and then you try to 0:19:15.600 --> 0:19:17.600 stop that and they hit you with something else once 0:19:17.600 --> 0:19:19.640 they Once you get in that situation is like quick 0:19:19.640 --> 0:19:22.679 slam and it's gonna go down here real fast. Um. 0:19:22.760 --> 0:19:25.439 So they can't figure out what you can tell that. 0:19:25.480 --> 0:19:27.760 The defense can't figure out who and what they want 0:19:27.760 --> 0:19:29.520 to take out of the game. You know, you try 0:19:29.560 --> 0:19:31.040 to take Ivory out of the game, and you're gonna 0:19:31.080 --> 0:19:33.920 leave the receiver's wide open. Um, and you try to 0:19:33.960 --> 0:19:35.600 take the receivers out of the game, You're gonna leave. 0:19:35.880 --> 0:19:37.639 You can't do that because you need people in the 0:19:37.640 --> 0:19:40.160 box to stop Ivory. In the season, he's having UM 0:19:40.200 --> 0:19:44.200 and I think Ryan Um deserves all the praise because 0:19:44.520 --> 0:19:46.080 you can have that, but it takes a guy who 0:19:46.160 --> 0:19:49.040 can manage that. Um. You can put a lot of 0:19:49.040 --> 0:19:50.879 people in that situation and they won't be able to 0:19:50.880 --> 0:19:53.080 manage it as well as he has. Especially these last 0:19:53.119 --> 0:19:55.080 three weeks, he's went to another level. I don't know 0:19:55.080 --> 0:19:56.720 if it was cutting a beard or what, but he's 0:19:56.760 --> 0:20:00.560 going to another level. Uh. But he's managing the game 0:20:00.680 --> 0:20:03.359 in a way that he has all my all my 0:20:03.440 --> 0:20:08.040 period to Mario, ifitzs Locker is right by yours over there, 0:20:08.160 --> 0:20:13.440 and if you enjoyed having him not just orchestrate the offense, 0:20:13.560 --> 0:20:15.240 but having him as a team man, and if he 0:20:15.320 --> 0:20:18.800 got a chance to, you know, uh, share a little 0:20:18.800 --> 0:20:21.240 bit with him throughout the year. Man. I admire him, Man, 0:20:21.280 --> 0:20:25.679 I admire him. He's a he's a football mastermind. His 0:20:25.800 --> 0:20:29.159 mind is always on football. Man. He you know, he 0:20:29.240 --> 0:20:31.800 graduates from Harvard and you know he's a brainiact. But 0:20:32.200 --> 0:20:34.760 when you listen to the conversation that he's having with 0:20:34.800 --> 0:20:38.600 these guys, um, it's unique to see that. You know, 0:20:38.720 --> 0:20:40.879 with his intelligence, he's still breaking the game down in 0:20:40.920 --> 0:20:44.680 a very simple, simple way. But he's always talking football. 0:20:44.800 --> 0:20:47.159 I mean, uh, you're in the training room listening to 0:20:47.200 --> 0:20:49.640 him and be Marshall talk. They talked for forty five 0:20:49.640 --> 0:20:54.200 minutes about two plays. But then you see, like from 0:20:54.200 --> 0:20:56.560
