00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:05,960
Speaker 1: Welcome to another edition of the Official Jets Podcast powered

2
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:09,479
Speaker 1: by Amazon Web Services, the Opponent Preview series. Rolling on

3
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 1: here Ethan Greenberg e A breaking down the San Francisco

4
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:15,680
Speaker 1: forty Niners, who the Jets play in Week two of

5
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 1: the regular season. On today's episode, you're gonna hear from

6
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:21,760
Speaker 1: the voice of the forty Niners, Greg Papa. We talked

7
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: with Greg all about the forty Niners, their off season,

8
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: their Super Bowl run that obviously fell seven minutes short

9
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:31,639
Speaker 1: of victory, and e A. Let's start with this. The

10
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 1: forty Niners come to MetLife Stadium in Week two for

11
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,240
Speaker 1: a big, big test for the New York Jets in

12
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 1: a tough schedule that involves the NFC West. We've been

13
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 1: talking about it for a while now since that schedule

14
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 1: was released. Was the Jets open up in Buffalo against

15
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 1: the Bills, a team that many are saying are the

16
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,520
Speaker 1: divisional favorites. But then your home opener is against a

17
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 1: forty Niners team that went thirteen and three last year

18
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 1: at a ten point lead over the Kansas City Chiefs

19
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl, one of the most complete teams,

20
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 1: if not the most complete team in football. Because barn

21
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 1: some Patrick Mahomes magic in the fourth quarter. This team

22
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: is the defending champion. Now interesting to watch her early

23
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: in the season is how does this forty Niners team

24
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 1: that brings back a lot of familiar faces and has

25
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 1: that continuity, how are they going to deal with the

26
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 1: Super Bowl hangover? Because it is always difficult for a

27
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: team that was in position to win a title to

28
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 1: come back and get to the top of the mountain again.

29
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: And we'll talk about the different matchups that are gonna

30
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 1: be difficult for the Jets and perhaps favor the Jets.

31
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 1: But you said it, this forty Niners team might be

32
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,279
Speaker 1: in a good spot compared to some other teams because

33
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: of the continuity. Their defensive coordinator, Robert Sala, was a

34
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: head coach candidate across the league. Well, he remains put

35
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 1: that defense is very good, that running game is very good.

36
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 1: And this is a team that didn't have a whole

37
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: lot of shake up in the offseason, not only with

38
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 1: their coaching staff and of course their general manager and

39
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:21,119
Speaker 1: head coach remain in place in John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan,

40
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,359
Speaker 1: but not a lot of player turn over either, especially

41
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 1: at the starter positions on both offense and defense. The

42
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 1: biggest one perhaps is the addition of Trent Williams. Yeah,

43
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: and then from us a correction standpoint, A lot of

44
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: people in the national football are very surprised by the

45
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 1: trade of the Forest Buckner to the Colts because forty

46
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 1: Niners followers will tell you last season that Buckner was

47
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 1: perhaps the forty Niners top overall player. But you mentioned

48
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: Trent Williams. Is that familiarity with Kyle Shanahan. I think

49
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 1: he's going to be a tremendous addition, and for a

50
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 1: team that Green's, they just physically man handled people up front,

51
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 1: and now they're adding another boss man to that offensive line,

52
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 1: so that's gonna set everything up. I really like what

53
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 1: they've done at the receiver position too, because Deebo Samuel,

54
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: tough kid from South Carolina, contributed immediately for the forty Niners.

55
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: And then they come back this year and they get

56
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 1: a guy who I think has Samuel like qualities and

57
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: Brandon I they can do damage after to catch, and

58
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 1: defensively they got the big names. No Buckner, but Nick

59
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 1: Bosa can bring it off the edge. They gave Eric

60
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: Armstead an extension. Of course, Richard Sherman still going strong

61
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: back there in that second year. And then of course

62
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: Fred Warner um one of the best little middle linebackers

63
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 1: in the NFL. And then Kwan Alexander, who missed the

64
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: majority of last season because of an injury he returned

65
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 1: in the postseason. Well, he, in theory, will be fully

66
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: healthy entering and so this is a tough test for

67
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: the Jets. You know, the San Francisco forty Niners represented

68
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,840
Speaker 1: the a f C in the Super Bowl, not by coincidence,

69
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: but by the fact that they went thirteen and three

70
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 1: a physically dominated a lot of their opponents. And let's

71
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: hear from Gregg Popo more about this forty Iners team

72
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 1: and what the Jets can expect from them in Week two.

73
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 1: Have met life. Let's start with this. This offseason is

74
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 1: so weird, all right. We all know that it's all virtual,

75
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 1: but given the forty Niners have remained pretty much intact

76
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: from a coaching staff perspective, in a player's perspective, how

77
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,039
Speaker 1: much do you think that will help them come the

78
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 1: start of the regular season. Well, they think the cotton

79
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 1: Nobody is gonna be e I mean Kyle and the

80
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 1: two offensive coordinators, Uh, the two Mikes, Mike and Mike,

81
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 1: as we call him, the floor and McDaniel, and then

82
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 1: you've got Robert Salez the defensive coordinator, and likewise Richard

83
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 1: hig Tower. They've been with Kyle at various spots, but

84
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 1: specifically with the forty Niners going into their fourth year,

85
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 1: so they think the continuity there will be helpful, uh

86
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: as far as where they can pick up the learning

87
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 1: in the zoom offseason meetings that they're doing, and then

88
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 1: the continuity on the on the team. Obviously you've got

89
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 1: some changes. Brandon I, the rookie wide receiver from a issue,

90
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 1: is probably going to be in the mix to be

91
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: a starter right away. Debo is a young guy, but

92
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: he knows the system and he got some veteran offensive lineman.

93
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 1: Even with you O Staley retiring, you plug in Trent Williams,

94
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 1: who I think is the most talented offensive lineman the

95
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: San Francisco forty Niners have ever had, and he knows

96
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 1: Kyle well from their days together in Washington. He knows

97
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 1: the terminology. And then over on defense, I think it's

98
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 1: a lot of the same pieces. So I think they're

99
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 1: hopeful that they're gonna be able to pick up where

100
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: they left off and maybe have a slight advantage of

101
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: the teams because of the continuity. It's not like they're

102
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 1: they're trying to get a rookie quarterback or Jimmy was

103
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: playing his first full year. He's been in the system

104
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 1: for a while and if he stays healthy, they're year

105
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: to be a second full year. And you've got Fred

106
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,239
Speaker 1: Warner who calls the defense it has since his rookie

107
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: You're going into his third year. So I think that

108
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:09,840
Speaker 1: there nobody wants to live in this world and you

109
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 1: want to be out on the practice field in Santa

110
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 1: Clara and actually rapping and seeing guys and not Jewish

111
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: doing it the way we're talking today. But I think

112
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,679
Speaker 1: because of the world we're living in now, the forty

113
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 1: Niners feel like they may have a slight advantage over

114
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,720
Speaker 1: other teams because of the continuity factor. Greg NFL is

115
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 1: obviously a business, and when you think in terms of

116
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 1: the trade that sent the Forrest Buckner to Indianapolis in

117
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 1: exchange for a first round pick, why did make that move?

118
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,839
Speaker 1: And then can you talk about them picking up Javon

119
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 1: kin Law out of South Carolina with that first round

120
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 1: pick from India. His agent is Joel Siegel, who was

121
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 1: the same agent of Khalil Mack of the Raiders. So

122
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 1: when they first met with Joel and talked at the combine,

123
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,160
Speaker 1: I believe it was about the deal. They talked about

124
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 1: average annual value and the first number that Joel dropped

125
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 1: on them began with a two and not a one,

126
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 1: which means we're looking at him being a twenty million

127
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 1: dollar a year player, and they just said, we can't

128
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: do that. When I first heard of this trade and

129
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: the thirteenth overall pick, I immediately thought of Jerry Judy,

130
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: the wide receiver out of Alabama, who I thought, if

131
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: you're gonna lose Emmanuel Sanders, you're bringing Jerry Judy. He's

132
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: the finishing piece they wound up. They could have taken

133
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 1: Jerry Judy. Obviously, they traded back one spot with Tampa

134
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: to pick at fourteen, but they had their sight set

135
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 1: on kind Law. Derek Brown, a huge alignment from Auburn,

136
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 1: went much earlier in the draft. But they like ken

137
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: Law a lot. So he's different than Buckner in the

138
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 1: fact he's heavier. He's listed about three and he told

139
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 1: me right now he wastes about three fifteen. But that's

140
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 1: still substantially more than DeForest Buckner. The Buckner had one issue,

141
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: teams would would move him a little bit. Ken Law

142
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: is a bigger player in free fifteen. They don't have

143
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 1: a lot of three hundred pounders on either side of

144
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: the ball. So I think that's what the way, the

145
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: modern way you do business in the NFL is. We

146
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: can't pay the Forest million dollars a year. Let's trade him,

147
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 1: get a thirteenth pick. And when you look at the

148
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: salary of what kin Law is gonna make versus what

149
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: the Forest Buckner is gonna make, we're talking about four

150
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: million a year versus twenty one. That was just the

151
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: economics of the of the game dictating we can't pay

152
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 1: buck Buckner that much. Let's trade and get a rookie

153
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 1: not Wily be as good as Buckner. We'll see. You know,

154
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,080
Speaker 1: Buckner became, you know, in years three and four a

155
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 1: pretty good player for the forty Niners. Give you're the

156
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 1: Jets in week two, how do you go about defeating

157
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 1: the Where do you attack? You know, you've got to

158
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 1: stop the running game. There's no doubt this This team

159
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 1: is dominant in two areas, and that is the rush,

160
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 1: the pass rush, on defense, you've gotta block Nick Vos,

161
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 1: So you gotta block d Ford, and d Ford has

162
00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 1: got to be healthier. You know, his final year in

163
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 1: Kansas City, Bob Sutton played them over a thousand snaps.

164
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: Has patached here with the forty Niners. He played two

165
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 1: and thirty two snaps twenty two percent of the time.

166
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 1: He's got to play more. And if you're gonna lose Buckner,

167
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 1: can kin Law give it to you. So, without question,

168
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: Adam Gaines's thought process has got to be to block

169
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: what I call the gold rush. And then on the

170
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 1: other side, with Greg Williams and the coordinator on defense,

171
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,320
Speaker 1: you've got to stop the forty nine state of the

172
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 1: art running game, and you plug Trent Williams in at

173
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,599
Speaker 1: left tackle. Joe Staley was a tremendous player. He's a

174
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: borderline Hall of Famer, one of the best tackles and

175
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 1: fourty history. But Trent Williams, in my opinion, is a

176
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 1: significant upgrade in the run game, pass protection equal. He's

177
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: a maller, he's got great feet, and he's able to,

178
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: you know, run that outside stretch running play his own

179
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 1: running play. So in order to control the forty Niners,

180
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: You've got to handle their two rushes, their pass rush

181
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 1: on defense and their ability to run the ball, the

182
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 1: rush game on offense, and it state of the yard.

183
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:00,719
Speaker 1: It's not just the bad acts in the way they

184
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 1: time up the outside zone. It's how Kyle Shanahan gets

185
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:08,959
Speaker 1: Kyle use check. The fullback involved George Kittle, the tight

186
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: end involved a great inline blocking tight end grade and movement. Well,

187
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 1: and the wide receivers. I youth, this young guy from

188
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 1: Arizona State, Deebo Samuel Uh. They will crunch you. They

189
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 1: call it a pin block. Well, they'll come down in

190
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 1: motion and kind of a crunch block and they so

191
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 1: you gotta you gotta, you gotta stop the running game,

192
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: and you gotta stay gotta control their passage rush. What

193
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 1: is next for quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo. You know Jimmy was

194
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: seven minutes and thirteen seconds away from winning the Super Bowl.

195
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 1: To me, what Jimmy's gotta do? And you look back

196
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: at the Super Bowl, Yeah, he missed a manual on

197
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: the third and tent the post route. If he hits that,

198
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 1: the forty Niners take the lead. The Kansas City has

199
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: two minutes, about two minutes to come back. And try

200
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 1: to respond, which they may have done. So there's no

201
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 1: certainty if you hit that you win the super Bowl,

202
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 1: but you're obviously in a much better position to do

203
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 1: so then overthrowing him gonna go. Overthrew him badly, and

204
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 1: the situation you have to underthrow him or flatten him

205
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 1: out and let him go get the ball. You cannot

206
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 1: miss long where he just cannot physically get there, and

207
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,679
Speaker 1: miss long so badly. But those are deep shots. Joe

208
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: Namath one of my heroes growing up. He didn't hit

209
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:18,840
Speaker 1: every deep one to Don Maynard. Occasionally Joe Willie would miss. Uh,

210
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 1: so you come back and you you run it back.

211
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: But earlier in the game, you know, Chris Jones got

212
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 1: a little pressure on him and he threw the ball

213
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,320
Speaker 1: straight up and the ever shot Brayle in the corner

214
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 1: and accept intercepted it. So what Jimmy's gotta do? I

215
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,679
Speaker 1: think he's fine with the splash plays. He almost threw

216
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 1: for four thousand yards. But one statistical when you go

217
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 1: through his line from last year, the interception total was

218
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 1: a little high by modern NFL quarterbacks. You know, Joe

219
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 1: Willie threw a lot of interceptions, but that's just the

220
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 1: way they played back then. Now they don't turn the

221
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 1: ball over, and Jimmy would occasionally just not see that

222
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 1: that buzz linebacker Luke Keithley against Carolina the playoff game

223
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: against the Minnesota Vikings, Eric Kendricks didn't see him. He's

224
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 1: got to see him. And also he's got to hold

225
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 1: out of the ball. The one major critique I have

226
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:10,359
Speaker 1: a Jimmy. The interceptions happened. You want to lessen those, obviously,

227
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 1: But he had too many fumbles. He fumbled the ball

228
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: ten times last year and he lost five fumbles. And

229
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 1: when you look at the game like the home game

230
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,079
Speaker 1: against Seattle, the Monday night game when Seattle beat the

231
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 1: forty Niners at home, the forty Niners were ahead of

232
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,959
Speaker 1: that game and controlling the game, and he had a

233
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,439
Speaker 1: script sack. Clowney got him and they scooped and scored.

234
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 1: And he also had one later to start the second half.

235
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 1: So Jimmy's fine. It's not that he needs to be

236
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 1: better because the splash plays are there. He just needs

237
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 1: to be less poor, which means you cannot throw the

238
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 1: ball to the other team as much and you have

239
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 1: to hold onto the ball with plans at certain times

240
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 1: you just take that sack and not fumble the ball. Greg,

241
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 1: what's your valuation of this young receiving corps for the

242
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,560
Speaker 1: forty Niners. You mentioned Deebo Samuel and Brandon Ayuquill, Emmanuel

243
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: Sanders now a member of the Saints, and Marquis Goodwin

244
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 1: who didn't play it on last year. I don't believe

245
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 1: now a member of the Philadelphia Eagles, and the third

246
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,840
Speaker 1: guy there would be Kendrick Born. I mean at the

247
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 1: end of the year they exclude when they went three,

248
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 1: while at the forty Niners don't do a lot of

249
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,439
Speaker 1: three wide eleven personnel because they like Kyle us Check

250
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,679
Speaker 1: and I think he's the most versatile fullback in the NFL.

251
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 1: So they do a lot of twenty one two running backs,

252
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,559
Speaker 1: one tight end, twenty two or two tight ends or twelve.

253
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,199
Speaker 1: So if you're gonna do any of those combinations, you're

254
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: not only gonna have three wide receivers on the field.

255
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,720
Speaker 1: When they went three last year, it was Emmanuel Sanders,

256
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 1: Gebo Samuel, and Kendrick Born was the third guy about

257
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 1: midway through the year on he's very good inside the

258
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: red zone lad the forty Niners and touched on receptions

259
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 1: last year. I think he's in the mix, but there's

260
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 1: a bunch of young guys, uh that the time is now,

261
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: and some of it's been injury related, some of it

262
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 1: has been they just have not performed for whatever reason.

263
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 1: Dante Pettis they traded up to take a couple of

264
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 1: years ago with the forty four overall pick, US second

265
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 1: round pick. He's had a couple of flashes. He beat

266
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,679
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh last year in Week three touchdown catch with seventy

267
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 1: five seconds to play, but outside of that he has

268
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,440
Speaker 1: not been impactfully. Had a huge drop in the Seattle

269
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 1: loss of home on Monday Night football. Trent Taylor as

270
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 1: a young receiver going back to his rookie year when

271
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 1: Jimmy first got here, a very good slot received in

272
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 1: and out guy Richie James Jr. Has been a punt

273
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: in a kickoff returner and actually was very poor at that.

274
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 1: I think Auk as a chance to certainly take the

275
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:35,320
Speaker 1: punt return job, if not both. And then Jalen Heard

276
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 1: who actually came in last year with Deebo Samuel they

277
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 1: were both rookies. Debo was the second round pick. Heard

278
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: was a third round pick. First preseason game against the

279
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. He had two touchdown receptions in that game,

280
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 1: and then he had a fresh fracture in his back

281
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 1: and didn't play the rest of the year. It wasn't

282
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 1: around a whole lot. I hardly ever saw him because

283
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 1: physically he wasn't there. So there's gonna be your votation.

284
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 1: I think to be that guy Born would be the

285
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 1: guy right now. Also a young guy. Are you can

286
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: debo you know, going into it, just penciling it out.

287
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 1: But by Yuka is a rookie. So if he does

288
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: regress it anywhere or you know, doesn't progress is the

289
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 1: way to say it progress as much, uh, as as

290
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 1: other rookies like Deebo did last year. That I think

291
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 1: Deebo is gonna be the number one guy. Then it's

292
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 1: gonna be kind of a battle among all those young

293
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: guys to be wide receivers two and three. And as

294
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 1: you said, they're young without Marquis Goodwin, with em Manuel

295
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 1: Sanders moving on, uh, they are extremely young in the

296
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 1: wide receiver corps. All teams are built differently in the

297
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 1: National Football League, but the forty Niners went from four

298
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 1: and twelve in two thousand eighteen to thirteen in three

299
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 1: in two thousand nineteen, if you're a Jets fan and

300
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 1: you had Joe Douglas in place with Adam Gaze, what

301
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 1: can you take away from what John Lynch and Kyle

302
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 1: Shanahan had been able to do in San Francisco. Well,

303
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 1: first of I am a huge Sam Donald shand I

304
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 1: think he as the entire package. I think there's been

305
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 1: a lot of circumstances injury, the mono situation last year

306
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 1: that has held him back, but I think he has

307
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 1: the full skill set. I watched him closely at USC

308
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,280
Speaker 1: and I liked him better than any of the quarterbacks

309
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 1: coming into that draft, including Josh Allen Buffalo. So I

310
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 1: think Donald is the right guy, and I think very simply,

311
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 1: what did you guys go six and two of the

312
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: last eight games last year? And once I mean that,

313
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 1: you go back to Garoppolo. So when they traded for

314
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:38,680
Speaker 1: Garoppolo Halloween Night of eighteen, were oh and nine to

315
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 1: start that year, they were one in ten. They beat

316
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 1: the New York Giants you may remember, on a deep

317
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: ball to Goodwin from C. J. Bethner. They were one.

318
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 1: Intent they get Jimmy Garoppolo in a trade. He doesn't

319
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:53,680
Speaker 1: play the first three or four games, he comes in

320
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 1: and makes the start. They win their last five games.

321
00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 1: I thought the quarterback is just a functionality of the

322
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,359
Speaker 1: entire offense. You know, yes, there's great quarter effacts. Nameth

323
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: can elevate you and when you were Super Bowl, he's

324
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 1: that skilled. But really, come on, this is not a

325
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,120
Speaker 1: good football team. How can this guy who doesn't really

326
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: know the playbook come in and flip it? They went

327
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 1: from one and ten to five and oh, like wow,

328
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 1: I Caropolo is that good? So going into into the

329
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 1: year before last, we're talking to the seventeen year. I

330
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:26,800
Speaker 1: guess of the year they traded for, it's of eighteen.

331
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:29,879
Speaker 1: They had a hard schedule to open the year. You know,

332
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: they begin the year at Minnesota and that terrific defense

333
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 1: in their dome. That's a hard game. The second week

334
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 1: they beat the Lions, and then Jimmy gets hurt in

335
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 1: week three and arrowhead against Kansas City and they wind

336
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 1: up going forward twelve. Was that legit? I don't think so,

337
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 1: I said going into last year. If the quarterback makes

338
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 1: all sixteen starts, in plays all sixteen games, which he did,

339
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 1: he was on this field. It's with the exception of

340
00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:59,639
Speaker 1: seven snaps and one blowout win against Carolina. When the

341
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,360
Speaker 1: back Nick Mullins came in, I thought they could win

342
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: ten games. Now they surprised me, and they want to know.

343
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 1: To start the year, and they went thirteen and three,

344
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: and the three games they lost, we're right at the

345
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,639
Speaker 1: end on the last play of the game. Essentially, they

346
00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 1: had a chance to win every game. And I'm not

347
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,199
Speaker 1: saying the Jets are going to do that, but I

348
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 1: think with some of the pieces they have, starting with

349
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 1: the quarterback. Quentin Williams was another guy, you know, when

350
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 1: Bosa came out, I loved Quinn and Williams. I did

351
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,639
Speaker 1: a bunch of Alabama games his last year there and

352
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: he was so dominant. So he's got to be healthy.

353
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 1: He's got to be that player at three technique that

354
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 1: we thought he was coming into the league. But he's

355
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 1: someone for Greg Williams to to build a defense around.

356
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,200
Speaker 1: And then you get mostly back figure out Jamal Adams.

357
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,160
Speaker 1: So you've got a great defensive player at every level

358
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,440
Speaker 1: of your defense. And we know I mean going into

359
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: the game at New York Week two, that'll be the

360
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 1: forty niners first road game if we start on time,

361
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:55,960
Speaker 1: and I'm knocking wood here you gotta deal with Greg

362
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,200
Speaker 1: Williams and all those overload exotic blitz is that he's

363
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,360
Speaker 1: gonna bring us actually on third down. So I think

364
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 1: the AFC He's is wide open this year. I think

365
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,679
Speaker 1: Buffalo will go going into it on paper is the

366
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:10,960
Speaker 1: strongest team, but New England's right there, and I would

367
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 1: not I would not think it's out of the realm

368
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: that the Jets could flip that seven and nine based

369
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 1: on the six and two finish and you know, get

370
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: to nine or so wins nine or ten and challenge

371
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,680
Speaker 1: not with the extra playoffs spot. You're talking about possibly

372
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 1: making the playoffs in joinals third year. Yeah, I thought

373
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,880
Speaker 1: Greg Papa had a lot of great things to say,

374
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:33,879
Speaker 1: and let's focus on a couple of matchups here that

375
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 1: the Jets can either take advantage of her that are

376
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 1: perhaps difficult for the Jets. And the one thing that

377
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 1: stands out to me after talking to Greg is just

378
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:46,399
Speaker 1: how stout the forty niners are in the trenches. And

379
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,719
Speaker 1: I know that's something that Joe Douglas is trying to

380
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,520
Speaker 1: build on both sides of the ball. I totally agree

381
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,639
Speaker 1: with that Number one for the Jets is going to

382
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 1: be stopping the run. It seemed like anybody they gave

383
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: the ball to out of that backfield that Jimmy Garoppolo

384
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:06,159
Speaker 1: was handing the ball off to was productive. So the

385
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,439
Speaker 1: Jets number two in the National Football League against the

386
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,879
Speaker 1: run last year. I like what Papa said about the

387
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,200
Speaker 1: three different levels that he thinks that Quinn and Williams

388
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,119
Speaker 1: can be an elite player in the National Football League.

389
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 1: We know that C. J. Moseley, when he's been healthy

390
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:28,400
Speaker 1: has been elite and Jamal Adams back there in defensive backfield.

391
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 1: How are the Jets not only gonna contain this run game,

392
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 1: but you gotta take away George Kittle. Kittle is an

393
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,200
Speaker 1: X factor and how are the Jets gonna match up

394
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:42,560
Speaker 1: with him? Because Kittle can be a matchup nightmare for defenses.

395
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: So Deebo Samuel, We've talked about him before. Last season,

396
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 1: he had fifty seven catches for eight hundred two yards

397
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 1: and three touchdowns. And he's a factor on the ground too.

398
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,800
Speaker 1: He had a hundred fifty nine yards rushing and another

399
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 1: three touchdowns. Well, I asked Greg Papa this and I

400
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: just want to bring this up again. Is the San

401
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 1: Francisco forty Niners receiving corps is so young that if

402
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 1: a team like the Jets, who are stout against the run,

403
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: can stop the forty Niners ground attack, I wonder what

404
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: kind of pressure will be placed on these young receivers

405
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:19,719
Speaker 1: to step up. Obviously, Deebo Samuel has established himself one

406
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,879
Speaker 1: year in the league, but Brandon, I you, yes, he's

407
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 1: a very talented receiver coming out of Arizona State, but

408
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:29,919
Speaker 1: not all players make that transition to the NFL seamlessly,

409
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 1: especially when you factor in the off season being exclusively virtual.

410
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,399
Speaker 1: So I wonder if maybe the jets Is best chance

411
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 1: defensively comes with the San Francisco forty Niners passing game,

412
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:44,800
Speaker 1: and maybe that's how the Jets can stay in a

413
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 1: game like this in a very difficult matchup, even though

414
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,679
Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty Niners are traveling across the country

415
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 1: forty Niners last year. That's something that jumped out at

416
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 1: me too, is that Papa said they were in every

417
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 1: game they lost, And if you go back and look

418
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 1: at the road slate last year, seven and one on

419
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: the road. This is the start of a back to

420
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:12,119
Speaker 1: back New York trip for them, because after hosting the

421
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals in Week one will come and face the Jets,

422
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,600
Speaker 1: and that will be followed up a return date at

423
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 1: MetLife Stadium against the New York Giants. So this is

424
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:29,920
Speaker 1: a team that has one of those rosters that travels,

425
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 1: meaning that the forty Niners could play old school football

426
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 1: because they're so strong on both sides of the line

427
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 1: of scrimmage. Gonna be interested they see on the defensive

428
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 1: side of the ball, how they react to the change

429
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 1: with no defores Buckner and how many snaps Javon Kinlaw

430
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:54,679
Speaker 1: gets in there early, and just how effective he is.

431
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 1: But if the Jets can remain stout against the run

432
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: and get after Garoppolo, maybe they can force him into

433
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:07,160
Speaker 1: some mistakes. On the other side of the ball, Greens

434
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: Sam Donald's gonna have some pressure on him and it's

435
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:15,639
Speaker 1: gonna be up to the jets revamped offensive line to

436
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 1: take care of those guys on the edge. Number one

437
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 1: Nick Boson. Given that this game is in Week two,

438
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,520
Speaker 1: a couple of things. One, how do the forty Niners

439
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:31,680
Speaker 1: react to Greg Williams deploying all these different exotic schemes

440
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,359
Speaker 1: well for the Jets. On the other hand, this is

441
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 1: a new look offensive line, and I wonder how quickly

442
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 1: they'll be able to jel in time for this game,

443
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 1: because this is gonna be kind of like a litmus

444
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 1: test for the Jets. That front seven of the forty

445
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,439
Speaker 1: Niners they played together. They're very good with Nick Bosa

446
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,680
Speaker 1: on one side and DeFord on the other, and they're

447
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:55,239
Speaker 1: very stout in the middle. Well, let me wrap up

448
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 1: this podcast by asking you this, where do you think

449
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 1: that the Jets is best option to take advantage of

450
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,640
Speaker 1: this forty Niners defenses? Well, you always want to have balance.

451
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: So for the Jets, I think it's gonna be imperative

452
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 1: for them early in the season to get Levan Bell

453
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,439
Speaker 1: going because that sets up a lot of things with

454
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 1: the play action game. But to beat the forty Niners,

455
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 1: Sam Donald's gonna have to play mistake free football. But

456
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 1: if he has given time to throw and you do

457
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 1: have some balance with Levian Bell in the run game,

458
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 1: I think the Jets can get after the secondary a

459
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 1: little bit. But where teams have struggled in San Francisco

460
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 1: is that they haven't provided the protection for their quarterbacks

461
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 1: to throw and on on the other side of the ball.

462
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 1: Of course, they're going to contain that run game, get

463
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:52,159
