Speaker 1: On the world. You play to win the game. He's
Speaker 1: got it, tucks down, can't work. You're listening to the
Speaker 1: Official Jets podcast, Jets three sixty Production. Welcome to Vanderbilt
Speaker 1: Sports and Spirits here at the Windham Hamilton's Park Eric
Speaker 1: Ellen alongside part Scott and we're going right off the
Speaker 1: beat today with our Players segment. It's Jermaine Curse is
Speaker 1: ready to roll. I'll tell you what made week one.
Speaker 1: We had to pipe in the noise This week is organic, man,
Speaker 1: and this just tells you where the season is going. Man.
Speaker 1: You guys finally believe. Our Player segment is presented by
Speaker 1: mt T Bank, the official community bank of your New
Speaker 1: York Jets. Jermaine Curse, what did you think about the
Speaker 1: home faithful Thursday night? You guys put it on the
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bill is pretty good, but the atmosphere was electric.
Speaker 1: That was your first game in terms of prime time
Speaker 1: at Melife Stadium. It was good to get a win. Uh.
Speaker 1: Um for we've we've been on the three game losing streets,
Speaker 1: so we wanted to come out and kind of make
Speaker 1: a statement for us and be able to um come
Speaker 1: out there and just compete. Um. I thought it was
Speaker 1: a big one for us. But the crowd itself, but
Speaker 1: everything about the energy was great. Um, you know that
Speaker 1: tenders has been getting better and better each game, and um,
Speaker 1: you know when you start seeing stuff like that, you know,
Speaker 1: just to be able to get the crowd involved in
Speaker 1: that momentum carrying onto each game and each week, um
Speaker 1: is a big thing. Jed Nations, I have to understand
Speaker 1: he's coming from the twelfth man. I know where he's
Speaker 1: coming from. I know. I remember going out there one
Speaker 1: time and I was like, listen, this crowd is crazy
Speaker 1: out here in Seattle. But then I went to a
Speaker 1: high school. We practiced, and then it had like a
Speaker 1: little overhang and everything we said came and bounced right
Speaker 1: back down. So you know, you know, Paul Oudy man,
Speaker 1: you gotta give it to him for the technology. Man,
Speaker 1: It's it's a crazy atmosphere. But know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: You know he used his Microsoft background to make sure
Speaker 1: that that that know, it was crazy because I mean
Speaker 1: it was definitely there. You couldn't even speak to anybody.
Speaker 1: So Destinations, you gotta understand, you gotta, you gotta, you
Speaker 1: gotta take it up a nut. Through nine games thirty
Speaker 1: one receptions, three eighty yards, four touchdowns. You were acquired
Speaker 1: September one in the trade with the Seahawks. How have
Speaker 1: you been able to make it look like a seamless transition.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have, man, I wouldn't call it seamless, but uh,
Speaker 1: it was definitely a quick transition. I wouldn't really even
Speaker 1: say there was a transition at all, because as soon
Speaker 1: as I got uh to New York or New Jersey,
Speaker 1: I went straight to the facility and I spent the
Speaker 1: first two days just literally um cramming in the playbook,
Speaker 1: and I was told I was going to start the
Speaker 1: first game, So I'm like, all right, I gotta learn
Speaker 1: a lot um in one week. The good thing is,
Speaker 1: um you know, they say the NFL is a copycat league,
Speaker 1: and so a lot of the stuff that we ran
Speaker 1: or we are running, it's a copycat league. So everybody
Speaker 1: kind of runs concepts the same concept. So it was
Speaker 1: just for me to um change the terminology and and
Speaker 1: try to remember that. But the smaller details I'm still
Speaker 1: working on. You know, coaches like certain things a lot
Speaker 1: different um in different areas, so that's something I kind
Speaker 1: of had to adjust to. But it speaks to your
Speaker 1: football acumen. You know, I don't think you're giving yourself
Speaker 1: enough credit. I mean, you talk about before Sefarren Jenkis
Speaker 1: came in, you were the go to guy and I
Speaker 1: think the defensive starter to like maybe move their move
Speaker 1: their coverage to you and roll to you and creating
Speaker 1: opportunities for Safarren Jenkins and as they continue to try
Speaker 1: and take him away, I'm sure to open back up
Speaker 1: for you. But how important was it because you had
Speaker 1: a veteran quarterback that can kind of speak that non
Speaker 1: verbal communication with you and be able to you know,
Speaker 1: maybe if you guys aren't on the same page, you
Speaker 1: can give you that look and you guys kind of
Speaker 1: you speak the same language because you are veterans. Um,
Speaker 1: it was definitely helpful. Me and Josh we started right
Speaker 1: away of just kind of working on the time and stuff,
Speaker 1: whether that was um at the beginning of practice and
Speaker 1: just running routes and you know, specific routes that we're
Speaker 1: gonna run in the game. And UM, so we kind
Speaker 1: of we watched film a little bit together and just
Speaker 1: kind of trying to get on the same page. And
Speaker 1: you know, at the beginning of the season, we started
Speaker 1: to really connect and Um. You know, I was fortunate
Speaker 1: enough to be able to make some plays, and then
Speaker 1: as the season got gone, we started getting some more
Speaker 1: guys going, like like you mentioned Austin and Robbie Anderson
Speaker 1: has been a huge um helping the in the past.
Speaker 1: Game he's been he's been explosive, and I'm trying to
Speaker 1: figure out when teams are gonna stop taking the goal
Speaker 1: ball from him because he's just gonna keep taking him
Speaker 1: the top. It's it's amazing that they're still like I
Speaker 1: see guys trying to press Bell, but they're squatting on him. Like, listen,
Speaker 1: have you not read the scouting report. He's probably one
Speaker 1: of the fastest guys I've been around in the NFL.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's definitely stretches the field. He's becoming a
Speaker 1: more complete receiver too, isn't he. Yeah. I mean he's
Speaker 1: been approven each week, and he just puts the work
Speaker 1: in each um, each and every day, whether that's in
Speaker 1: the film study or out there working on his craft
Speaker 1: on the field. Now, you know, trades are part of
Speaker 1: the game. You know, how did you handle when you
Speaker 1: got the news that you have been trading? You're not
Speaker 1: only leaving from the west coach specifical, the worst west
Speaker 1: and you're coming all the way over to the east coast.
Speaker 1: How did you wrap your head around that? And you know,
Speaker 1: I know I can imagine that the adjustment is still
Speaker 1: taking place, you know, moving your family and up routing that.
Speaker 1: You know, explain to the listeners what that what that's
Speaker 1: all about. Well, for me, it was a bitter sweet moment.
Speaker 1: I mean just the I played in Seattle for five
Speaker 1: years for the Seahawks, and um, I grew up in
Speaker 1: the state of Washington. I lived like an hour south
Speaker 1: of Seattle. I played high school football, college football, and
Speaker 1: then I was blessing not to play pros in the league.
Speaker 1: And just the relationships I built over time with the guys, um,
Speaker 1: you know, especially after the years. We want a Super
Speaker 1: Bowl there. You know a lot of those guys I
Speaker 1: played for five or six years, and you know, those
Speaker 1: relationships transition, you know outside of football. You know, those
Speaker 1: are some of my I call him brothers because we
Speaker 1: were truly a family over there. And um, so for
Speaker 1: that that was kind of the bitter party. But the
Speaker 1: sweet party I was just I was looking forward to
Speaker 1: a new opportunity. I think it was time for me
Speaker 1: to start a new chapter in my life and kind
Speaker 1: of get out of Seattle. Was all was interested, you know,
Speaker 1: thinking about whether, um, the opportunity of playing outside of
Speaker 1: Seattle would be like, and just the opportunity to that
Speaker 1: I would have here I was pretty excited about. And
Speaker 1: just starting with the brand new team and an up
Speaker 1: and coming team. UM. You know a lot of people
Speaker 1: kind of doubted what the Jets we're gonna do this year.
Speaker 1: And when I first got into the facility, I just
Speaker 1: immediately just started talking to UM a lot of the players. UM.
Speaker 1: Leonard Williams was the first guy I started talking to
Speaker 1: and just having those conversations of where everybody's mindset was
Speaker 1: at UM, because in the NFL, you know, just winning
Speaker 1: period is just like this small of the difference, but
Speaker 1: this small of the difference UM takes a lot of
Speaker 1: work and a lot of dedication and a lot of
Speaker 1: commitment and sacrifice. And so UM just started to have
Speaker 1: those conversations which with everybody, and it seemed like everybody
Speaker 1: kind of has similar mindsets, but it's more so just
Speaker 1: trying to figure out, you know, the steps to go
Speaker 1: forward with that. And when we got some great leaders
Speaker 1: in our team. Um, you know Tomorrow Davis, you know
Speaker 1: those guys rut there, that they're doing a great job
Speaker 1: and spreading the message, and uh, we're just trying to
Speaker 1: keep this thing on a row inside the Jets is
Speaker 1: supported by Selective Insurance Responses Everything Eric Ellen Ambire Scott
Speaker 1: Here Vanderbilt Sports and Spirits were joined by Jermaine Curse.
Speaker 1: Speaking of responses, what has the media attention been like
Speaker 1: to you compared to maybe a locker room in Seattle
Speaker 1: where people were flocking to Richard Sherman or cam Chancellor
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson where you wait, wait they were asking about
Speaker 1: me too, but I'm sure they were. But what have
Speaker 1: you gotten more media attention? Have you become more of
Speaker 1: a spokesperson for your new team? You think? Um, I
Speaker 1: think that. I think I think that would be fair
Speaker 1: to say more of a spokesperson for a team, just
Speaker 1: because you know, I've been part of one of Super
Speaker 1: Bowl two thirteen. You know, I've kind of seen what
Speaker 1: UM an organization kind of looks like, you know, a
Speaker 1: winning organization. And and that's why it goes back to
Speaker 1: what I was saying. I was just having those conversations
Speaker 1: with everybody. Um, I didn't want to come off like
Speaker 1: I had every answer, because I don't have every answer.
Speaker 1: But I've kind of seen, you know, the blueprint of
Speaker 1: it a little bit and just try to um mold
Speaker 1: it a little bit and just help take the steps,
Speaker 1: like I said before, you know, help everyone take the
Speaker 1: steps forward to create the change and and the attitude
Speaker 1: that we won our team to have, because that was
Speaker 1: going to be my follow up. You know what, how
Speaker 1: did you lean on that experience because maybe next year
Speaker 1: you're gonna have a new young quarterback, you know, maybe
Speaker 1: either be a free agency or in the draft, and
Speaker 1: you've been part of this process, you know, bringing in
Speaker 1: a young Russell Wilson. People forget about these great plays
Speaker 1: that you guys made because you know, he was on
Speaker 1: a pitch count when he first got in the league
Speaker 1: and they would take shots down the field. And you know,
Speaker 1: you mentioned your your super Bowl win. Remember that great
Speaker 1: catch you Well, that wasn't the super Bowl win, the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl defeat. The great didn't have one though, the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, Yeah it was. That was right here in stadium, right,
Speaker 1: That's why that's why you know the one that bounced off.
Speaker 1: You know, how do you how do you try and
Speaker 1: get the message? Because you know, when you think about
Speaker 1: the when when I think about the Jets, they lost
Speaker 1: some alpha males, you know, they lost the real reeves,
Speaker 1: they lost some mainstays and Nick Mango, and they're kind
Speaker 1: of searching for those new leaders and they don't really
Speaker 1: have a lot of people to to ask about the answers.
Speaker 1: Who's been successful in his league? You're one of these guys.
Speaker 1: How are you leaning on that experience to help them
Speaker 1: understand what it takes to win in this league? Well,
Speaker 1: you know, I credit that to the fact that I
Speaker 1: got to learn from some really good leaders, and you know,
Speaker 1: with Doug Baldwin and Cam Chancellor, and you know, those
Speaker 1: were the two main leaders over there in Seattle that
Speaker 1: I really kind of got to sit behind and just
Speaker 1: see how they get certain messages across or how they
Speaker 1: went about things. And so that I think that's definitely
Speaker 1: helped me kind of, uh mold into my own form
Speaker 1: of a leader. I'm not the guy that's like get
Speaker 1: in front of the whole team and makes this like
Speaker 1: braveheart speech. Uh right, right, But I like to get
Speaker 1: I got I like to get more personal, personally involved,
Speaker 1: like just had these one on one conversations or you know,
Speaker 1: just a few guys and just um, you know, I
Speaker 1: have those those conversations to see kind of where everybody's at.
Speaker 1: And so for me, um, it's something I'm kind of
Speaker 1: learning in my own you know, being a little more
Speaker 1: vocal than I am, or than I was before then
Speaker 1: I was in Seattle, because I technically kind of had
Speaker 1: a similar role in Seattle, but I wasn't as vocal
Speaker 1: or I'm not as a vocal as I am here.
Speaker 1: People forget that you play collegiately with the A four
Speaker 1: mentioned Austin Seferian Jenkins. How different is the guy you
Speaker 1: knew then too, the guy you see out there at
Speaker 1: the facility on the practice field every day. I mean,
Speaker 1: he's definitely a different, different dude, I think you know mentally, Um,
Speaker 1: he's in a different spot. He's been through some rough
Speaker 1: spots in his career so far, and uh, he's taking
Speaker 1: the necessary steps to to make changes. Um. And that's
Speaker 1: something I kind of noticed when I first got here
Speaker 1: because obviously I've talked to him, you know, his first
Speaker 1: couple of years when he was in Tampa. Um and
Speaker 1: just have and talk to him, like whether it was
Speaker 1: on the field or not. But when I first, when
Speaker 1: I got here at first and had a conversation with him,
Speaker 1: I can definitely see um that his motives were different,
Speaker 1: that his mindset was different about it. He was taking
Speaker 1: it more seriously because he knew, um that what he
Speaker 1: had wasn't gonna last forever. And when it's taken from you,
Speaker 1: you can definitely see how how different life can be without.
Speaker 1: You know, something you've been doing your whole life, and
Speaker 1: you get to a certain spot in your career and
Speaker 1: then you kind of try to possibly can throw it away,
Speaker 1: and so he kind of realized, you know, the dangers
Speaker 1: of that. But he's definitely uh take the right steps
Speaker 1: in the right strides and heading in the right direction,
Speaker 1: and he's just continuing to put uh that time and
Speaker 1: effort uh into making them Now now four and five, Listen,
Speaker 1: I know you're a veteran, and I know externally you
Speaker 1: really can't talk about this, and you know, playoffs maybe
Speaker 1: being in the future, but um, internally, how do you
Speaker 1: guys feeling? How confident are you guys? I mean, because
Speaker 1: you you been in almost every game. Instead you've been
Speaker 1: in every game, you lost some very tight games we
Speaker 1: was actually in that game too as well. For you know,
Speaker 1: I think from the beginning of this season, you know,
Speaker 1: we've had that type of confidence. Um, you know, a
Speaker 1: lot of people didn't really know what this team was
Speaker 1: about because they were basing us off of last year
Speaker 1: and kind of who we had last year. This is
Speaker 1: a whole different team. The first game against Buffalo has
Speaker 1: been was the first game a lot of us even
Speaker 1: played with each other. When I was talking to a
Speaker 1: lot of people, I would ask them like, what, how
Speaker 1: how long have you been on the team, And some
Speaker 1: of them was like I just got here in March.
Speaker 1: And so, you know, the more and more people I
Speaker 1: have asked, I'm like, man, this team is like really
Speaker 1: brand new, and whether they were young or they just
Speaker 1: got here. So that first those first two games, we
Speaker 1: were kind of just figuring out who we were, you know,
Speaker 1: and just figuring out what's our team identity, what are
Speaker 1: is our standards and you know, kind of learning about
Speaker 1: accountability and sacrificing. So, um, those first two games were
Speaker 1: kind of just you know, learning about ourselves. Those are
Speaker 1: growing pains. We're still gonna go through growing pains because
Speaker 1: we've still got a young team and we're still figuring
Speaker 1: things out. But as far as confidence wise it, I
Speaker 1: don't think there was any lack of it. How many
Speaker 1: how much struss do you think this offense right now
Speaker 1: is putting on a defense? Because I look at the
Speaker 1: contributions you're getting all around awesome Saverian Jenkins thirty three catches,
Speaker 1: Robby Anderson thirty one catches, Jermine Curse thirty one catches,
Speaker 1: Matt four take twenty nine catches. Then you think about
Speaker 1: the backfield and you're getting getting large chunks from and
Speaker 1: then you have Matt Forte churning it out the other
Speaker 1: night against the Buffalo Bills for a pair of touchdowns.
Speaker 1: How much struss do you think that puts on a defense?
Speaker 1: And how much conversely, I'm fun is that to play
Speaker 1: in an offensive attack where the ball is getting spread out.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's been good. We've been We've been able
Speaker 1: to move the ball pretty effectively throughout the games. Um,
Speaker 1: I think it just comes down to just consistency and
Speaker 1: doing things right longer than an opponent. We've been into
Speaker 1: in certain games where uh, we were moving the ball
Speaker 1: and then sometimes we just get penalties and they kind
Speaker 1: of kill us. So. UM, but as far as offensively,
Speaker 1: I think we've been doing a great job. I feel
Speaker 1: like we could continue to get better. Um, you know,
Speaker 1: kind of fix up the small mistakes like I was
Speaker 1: talking about that Uh comes with winning, and UM, I
Speaker 1: think we're gonna We're definitely taking the right steps towards it. Germaine,
Speaker 1: and you've got something in common with this guy up here,
Speaker 1: both undrafted. Respect So I look at the stats, and
Speaker 1: I know it's more than stats, but you played in
Speaker 1: the back twelve and you finished number two on Washington's
Speaker 1: career charge for receptions with a hundred and eighty receiving
Speaker 1: yards and receiving touchdowns with twenty nine. Actually I was
Speaker 1: really tied for thirty. They gave me a bubble and
Speaker 1: that accounted that. Still trying to find that. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: were you surprised you weren't drafted? And what was the
Speaker 1: knockgoun and you're coming out? Um, you know I had to.
Speaker 1: I played a little bit my freshman year, my second,
Speaker 1: and my sophomore and junior year. I probably have my
Speaker 1: better seasons. I didn't have that too good of a
Speaker 1: senior year. Um, and a lot of people told me
Speaker 1: I probably should have left my junior year, but I
Speaker 1: wanted to graduate and I came back. Um, it was
Speaker 1: a different quarterback and just it's I just didn't have
Speaker 1: a good senior year and that was kind of the
Speaker 1: knock on it, and I ended up going undrafted. Um.
Speaker 1: But for me, I know, I never really, you know,
Speaker 1: kind of doubted that I wouldn't be able to you know,
Speaker 1: find my way. You know, I always used it this quote.
Speaker 1: Steve Sarkisian said this to me in college, and he
Speaker 1: always said, sometimes you gotta find a way to find
Speaker 1: a way. And I've always held that, um with me
Speaker 1: till this day. Um, I think it's a true statement.
Speaker 1: And then that's kind of what I did. Well. I know,
Speaker 1: being an undrafted free agent, I had a huge chip
Speaker 1: on my shoulder and I can remember, you know, some
Speaker 1: of the comments from um, Chris Carter and not giving
Speaker 1: you guys really the respect, and um, how how hard
Speaker 1: has it been because you come you in the league
Speaker 1: as an undrafted free agent and people automatically and assume,
Speaker 1: because you don't have the name recognition that you're not
Speaker 1: a great receiver. You know, so how how have you
Speaker 1: used that chip? And you know, how hard is it
Speaker 1: to try and fight for that name in that respect
Speaker 1: that you deserve. I mean, if you're just watch me play,
Speaker 1: you kind of you understand. Um for me, you know,
Speaker 1: I always say thirty I always remind myself before every
Speaker 1: game that thirty two teams didn't want to draft me.
Speaker 1: That's including the Jets, and um, it's just that's that's
Speaker 1: the type of ye hear that. That's the that's the
Speaker 1: chip I play on my shoulder. I I don't forget it.
Speaker 1: I mean I've been into the in the league. This
Speaker 1: is my sixth year now, and um, I still haven't
Speaker 1: forget that. You know, thirty two teams passed up I'm in.
Speaker 1: Now do you go through? Do you go through the list?
Speaker 1: Sorry not to cut you, I know we gotta go
Speaker 1: to a break. Now. Do you look at the list
Speaker 1: of other receivers that was in front of you, like
Speaker 1: teaing in the league? No more yea than him? Better
Speaker 1: than him? Real quickly? Uh. Jeremy Curley suspended four games
Speaker 1: today by the National Football League for violating the p
Speaker 1: D policy. What do you anticipate from some of your
Speaker 1: youngsters now in that room, specifically Chad Hanson, our Dairy Stewart. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I mean last game, Chad actually got a
Speaker 1: lot more reps than he did before, and he did
Speaker 1: a good job. I mean he didn't he didn't have
Speaker 1: any catches, but you know, with the routes that he had,
Speaker 1: he's definitely put some wins on film. And UM, I
Speaker 1: think they're gonna do good. They're gonna step up. Um.
Speaker 1: I've been talking to both of them. I always talked
Speaker 1: to Chad talking about I need to see him he
Speaker 1: went to Cows. I always give him crap about being
Speaker 1: another Pack twelve team and how we used to smack
Speaker 1: them all the time back. Um them around pretty good
Speaker 1: this year too. Yeah. Um, I always tell him, I'm like, man,
Speaker 1: I want to see your swag back. And you know
Speaker 1: they've they've been doing a great job. They've been working
Speaker 1: on their craft. Um, each and every day, I've been
Speaker 1: trying to talk. I've been talking to him, make myself
Speaker 1: available for them any any chance that they need help
Speaker 1: or anything, any questions. Um. So we just look for
Speaker 1: them to just step up. I mean it's the next
Speaker 1: man up and we're gonna need them in these next
Speaker 1: couple of games. And so I'm looking forward to watching
Speaker 1: them play. Well, you're off to a great start here
Speaker 1: with your new team. Jermaine, thank you so much for
Speaker 1: joining us. We'll be right back here all right. We're
Speaker 1: broadcasting live from Bannerbilt Sports and Spirits inside the Windham
Speaker 1: Hamilton's Park Hotel here in Florida Park, New Jersey. Ericall
Speaker 1: On alongside Bart Scott Um. We just finished up with
Speaker 1: Jermaine Curse, who is on pace for a career high
Speaker 1: fifty five catches and he's closing in and if he
Speaker 1: averaged out over sixteen games, maybe a career high in
Speaker 1: terms of yards and seven touchdowns. He's on page four.
Speaker 1: What do you think about the production of him in
Speaker 1: his first season with the Green and White. I'll tell
Speaker 1: you what I think. It was very important. It was
Speaker 1: a great pick up. You know, he hasn't a knack
Speaker 1: for for getting open reading um zones, being able to
Speaker 1: you know, he's crafty. You know, reminds me a lot
Speaker 1: of Brad smith Man. He just seems like a class act.
Speaker 1: He's a guy that you I can imagine that the
Speaker 1: younger receivers kind of gravitate too, and leading all his
Speaker 1: experiences and you heard you heard him say all the
Speaker 1: right things. He talked about making itself available because it's
Speaker 1: about building the team up. It's not about just individual success.
Speaker 1: We understand if the group is successful, then we are
Speaker 1: are going to be successful. So the more I can
Speaker 1: coach up my teammates, the better we all can be.
Speaker 1: The he is going to be for me, But you know,
Speaker 1: I think that's secondary to him. I think he just
Speaker 1: wants to make sure that he can help anybody with
Speaker 1: whatever you can. And you need guys like that in
Speaker 1: your locker room. I think we talked about when we
Speaker 1: talk about having a quality locker room. I think the
Speaker 1: Giants can, Uh, well he can't. They can't get you
Speaker 1: can't get him from us, but they can. You know
Speaker 1: they have benefit from a guy like him in that
Speaker 1: locker I'll tell you what. You know. It was overlooked
Speaker 1: in that trade. Sheldon Richardson goes to the Seahawks se
Speaker 1: round traft. It's a talented player, no doubt about it,
Speaker 1: a force at times in the National Football League. But
Speaker 1: I think he's one of the best defensive tackles in
Speaker 1: the game. But long term, where were you gonna sign
Speaker 1: him long term? And instead you're bringing a receiver into
Speaker 1: your room who you constantly refer to as a professional
Speaker 1: receiver added to a young group for a veteran quarterback
Speaker 1: and you get the second round pick and return. No, absolutely,
Speaker 1: you know. I mean you talk about you know you're
Speaker 1: gonna lose Sheldon Richards and for nothing anyway, you know,
Speaker 1: you saw Bill Belichick finally like Garoppolo go because you
Speaker 1: understand that. You know, you can't sign three defensive tackles
Speaker 1: to long term money and have success. It's about the
Speaker 1: distribution of funds and you can't put all that money
Speaker 1: into two defensive tackles. You know. That's why you know,
Speaker 1: I think it's it's gonna be Um decision day as well,
Speaker 1: because I think, you know, when you have a successful
Speaker 1: year where you exceed expectations, you know, much like they
Speaker 1: did winners, I think it's time to start shoring up
Speaker 1: some of these young talents. You know. So you gotta
Speaker 1: look at a guy like Leonard Williams and say, hey, man,
Speaker 1: is it time for us to drop you know, the
Speaker 1: money for him now? Because you paid, you pay now,
Speaker 1: you pay less, you pay less, you pay later, you're
Speaker 1: gonna have to pay more. So that's something that they're
Speaker 1: gonna have to address coming up pretty soon. We'll have
Speaker 1: to see what happens with that first time uh the
Speaker 1: season the Jets played in prime time, they took care
Speaker 1: of the Buffalo Bills, came into My Life Stadium, a
Speaker 1: hot club, was not beating themselves, was stopping teams from
Speaker 1: running on them, and and turn the Jets come in
Speaker 1: and they rush for nearly two yards there plus three
Speaker 1: in turnover differential against a team that has lived off
Speaker 1: the takeaway and they finally get the past rush going
Speaker 1: with seven sex. Well, absolutely, it's talking about Remember I
Speaker 1: told you how you how you rush a shorter quarterback
Speaker 1: and mobile quarterback because the same lanes that they run
Speaker 1: through they throw through. So you want to you wanna
Speaker 1: you want to money up the picture understanding that you know,
Speaker 1: you guys are six five, six six and he's six one.
Speaker 1: So if you if your money up the pot and
Speaker 1: make sure that you don't get past quarterback depth. And
Speaker 1: if you do get past quarterback depth, you retreat. You
Speaker 1: make him throw it out of a whale with what
Speaker 1: we say, make him throw it out of a whale.
Speaker 1: And you know, even though he has some good yards,
Speaker 1: he missed a lot of throws because it's hard to
Speaker 1: be accurate because it always feels like somebody's around you
Speaker 1: and that that internal clock really goes off in your head.
Speaker 1: But another thing about in on Prime Time what it
Speaker 1: was is this is really an audition, you know for
Speaker 1: other guys that are watching you play. You know, they
Speaker 1: this gives them a look into how you play. You know,
Speaker 1: how tired of a team you guys are. And I
Speaker 1: think if anybody saw that team, they should be excited
Speaker 1: if there for free agency, understanding the salary cap space
Speaker 1: that the Jets have, the Hey man, this may be
Speaker 1: a team that's on the uprise. This may be a
Speaker 1: team that I can help put over the top. This
Speaker 1: may be a team where I can be the the
Speaker 1: guy or I can help get them over there, you know,
Speaker 1: over the edge. And you know, I think that's important
Speaker 1: when you go on the national you know, a national
Speaker 1: platform that you want to you know, have a good
Speaker 1: showing because it makes other guys want to come here.
Speaker 1: So the place was rocking Fireman and was back leading
Speaker 1: the Jets. Chance. Oh man, I can't go with Fireman
Speaker 1: and man this you gotta be on that bandwagon all
Speaker 1: the time and you can't jump on and off the bandwagon. Fan.
Speaker 1: We gotta put we gotta put fire man. He gotta
Speaker 1: do the chance on Skype, so the screen. Maybe we'll
Speaker 1: have a come in and you can talk. But listen,
Speaker 1: I thought I did a nice job the other night,
Speaker 1: and I thought the fans were fantastic, and I it
Speaker 1: can't do it. It can't wait to do it on
Speaker 1: on a on a national platform. I would like to
Speaker 1: see him out there on all the games. You can't
Speaker 1: just come out on a national platform. Try and be
Speaker 1: the team's mascot and be the most famous fan. Man.
Speaker 1: You gotta stick with the team through thick and thin.
Speaker 1: And I got some word for you, and you're gonna
Speaker 1: have to prove to me that you deserve your spot back. Okay,
Speaker 1: Can we talk about a little bit about dancing now
Speaker 1: that you got that out? Okay, okay, all right. Uh So,
Speaker 1: during a television time out the other nights, a Loving Jets,
Speaker 1: the funders broke it down. Who's the funniest that, who's
Speaker 1: the best dance for you? I don't know. I had
Speaker 1: would have to go back to the videotape because this
Speaker 1: is what I wanted to ask you. The hashtag Jets
Speaker 1: dance to Anything was born on Friday. Twitter users started
Speaker 1: using various songs over the video. What did you think
Speaker 1: about that? I think it was great, man. What was
Speaker 1: great about it? It wasn't It wasn't showing the Buffalo
Speaker 1: bills up. It was just raw and most and it
Speaker 1: was excitement. I'm sure that they wanted to get that payback.
Speaker 1: You know, whenever you get embarrassed or physically beat and
Speaker 1: you want to come back and have an opportunity. That's
Speaker 1: a great thing about playing people within your division. You
Speaker 1: get an opportunity to right the wrongs. And I thought
Speaker 1: it was great, man. I think it shows just how
Speaker 1: young this team is. And even for the older players
Speaker 1: like Mohamed Wilberson. You know, I think when you surround
Speaker 1: you know, players that that are saying in the middle
Speaker 1: of their career with young guys, I think they re
Speaker 1: energize him. And I can see, you know, Mohammed, you're
Speaker 1: playing playing you know, he came to life, you know,
Speaker 1: because it's just so much energy out there. You gotta
Speaker 1: love it. I gotta give thirty three some Jamal Adams, Yeah,
Speaker 1: he ranks the energy. And I'm not just just talking
Speaker 1: about his play. You're asking me about dancing. I thought
Speaker 1: I thought he was pretty good. He was dead. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he hit the I don't know what he was doing. Think,
Speaker 1: what do you think it was? I thought, I think
Speaker 1: I think it was cutting. But you know, I think
Speaker 1: I think if you if you really look, I think
Speaker 1: deren Lee. And I know I'm biased because he's in
Speaker 1: the line, so I'm saying he he dealing it more swag,
Speaker 1: you know. I mean he had a little bit more
Speaker 1: hip action than going on, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: So you know, you know, I think, you know, baby,
Speaker 1: we might have one or two out of that group.
Speaker 1: There could be a contestinal dance with the stars later.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I have to see more, you know what.
Speaker 1: I like though, like you just men and those guys
Speaker 1: weren't showing anybody up there, just in the moment, loving
Speaker 1: where they are. And that's what it's all about, isn't it.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you man, and listen, man, you go to
Speaker 1: training camp, you here all the naysayers telling people what
Speaker 1: you can't do, and then you have the opportunity to
Speaker 1: prove them wrong. It's no greater feeling. You know, it's satisfaction.
Speaker 1: You know, it's being able to it's almost like relief
Speaker 1: to that you can say, listen, I was right because
Speaker 1: you didn't know. They didn't know if they were going
Speaker 1: to be able to win four games. They knew they
Speaker 1: were gonna come out and play hard. But to be
Speaker 1: in the mix in November, that's all you can ask for,
Speaker 1: you know, we call it the dash for the cast,
Speaker 1: just to have an opportunity. You see the other team
Speaker 1: in New York on the other side of town, they
Speaker 1: melted in. Those you haul trucks are packed that the
Speaker 1: iPad what it would calling the pods, the pot far.
Speaker 1: The cars are already shipped back home. They got one car,
Speaker 1: they've already mailed it in man Um all right, so
Speaker 1: your vocals, you don't have to skip over that. Man.
Speaker 1: We can say that this is Inside the Jets, not
Speaker 1: inside the Giants. And thank you so much for tuning
Speaker 1: in on Facebook and on New York chest dot com
Speaker 1: and listening to on ESPN Radio as well. We're gonna
Speaker 1: come right back and do a little mid season report
Speaker 1: card about your New York Jets. Welcome back to Inside
Speaker 1: the Jets, Erik Ellen and part Scott here at Vanderbilt
Speaker 1: Sports and Spirits. Great crowd tonight, everybody uh getting their
Speaker 1: autographs with the Jermaine curse over there um a part
Speaker 1: still with us. They're no, I was trying to okay,
Speaker 1: so uh driving the game. Trip of the game is
Speaker 1: brought to you by Antigua and Barbuda. The beach is
Speaker 1: just the beginning. The Jets drive of the game was
Speaker 1: their first possession in the third quarter, because here we were,
Speaker 1: again in a familiar territory, a lead at halftime, a
Speaker 1: tight game, ten to seven. But the defense comes out.
Speaker 1: They forced the three and out and Josh mccowny company
Speaker 1: go right down the field and they culminate a possession
Speaker 1: with the scoring pass to Robbie Anderson. And you have
Speaker 1: to understand, that wasn't the play called in the huddle.
Speaker 1: That was a check after he you know, McCown survey
Speaker 1: the defense. He made a check, he saw they he
Speaker 1: had one on one coverage, and he pulled the trigger,
Speaker 1: you know, and he hit Robbie Anderson and stride. And
Speaker 1: that's why I keep telling, you know, the Jet fans
Speaker 1: that say, hey, you know, we need to see the
Speaker 1: other quarterbacks. Like listen, Robby Anderson was made to be
Speaker 1: great make a great play because he had a quarterback
Speaker 1: that had the wisdom and an experience to check to
Speaker 1: the play because he had seen that defense before. I
Speaker 1: totally agree. Uh, it was a great play. It was
Speaker 1: a veteran move. The guy is completing over seventy of
Speaker 1: his pastores each and every week. We talked about Josh
Speaker 1: McCown and his high level play and I'll tell you what,
Speaker 1: it's not going away. And I'm telling you, I'm trying
Speaker 1: to figure out when do the Jet fans change their
Speaker 1: expectations because of course, everybody wants a quarterback and they
Speaker 1: think this is a quarterback risk draft. But I'm telling you,
Speaker 1: watching Darna on some of these young college kids, they
Speaker 1: aren't ready. And you know, you talk about, you know,
Speaker 1: being able to evaluate the rest of your team. I
Speaker 1: think people are realizing that the Jets may not have
Speaker 1: as many holes as they once thought. And you talk
Speaker 1: about the team as well, it's gonna get Quincy and
Speaker 1: noon while back next year. And you add that to
Speaker 1: that tour already you know deep, you know wide receiver room,
Speaker 1: and you know his ability to play, you know that
Speaker 1: h back slash receiver slash tight end. You know, I
Speaker 1: think it's gonna add it just a whole another layer
Speaker 1: and being able to go out in free agency you know, so,
Speaker 1: I mean I think you you stay the course. You
Speaker 1: stay the course you like, as Hermanttards would say, you
Speaker 1: play to win the game, and you know, going for
Speaker 1: the playoffs and having something to shoot for I think
Speaker 1: should be the goal. You should try and win them all.
Speaker 1: You're not trying to tank, thankful what no, I think
Speaker 1: they put Listen, I think they put that to bed
Speaker 1: long ago. And then a streaky team so far early.
Speaker 1: Now the thing is for this for this young Jets
Speaker 1: team is to develop consistency. Lost their first two games
Speaker 1: and then a three game winning streak. Then they come
Speaker 1: back and they lose three in a row. Now they're
Speaker 1: on a winning streak again. You have to file this
Speaker 1: win off against the Buffalo Bills by going down to
Speaker 1: Tampa suggling and without Jamie's going back to see an
Speaker 1: old familiar folle. Right, Yes, I'll go see the bunny.
Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick will be the starting quarterback for the Tampa
Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers. Sunday trains never late, and that trains never late.
Speaker 1: Mike Evans suspended by the National Football Absolutely so he
Speaker 1: will not be playing. One of the better receivers. Now,
Speaker 1: they do have some weapons we do, but you know,
Speaker 1: somebody gotta get it to him. That trains never okay.
Speaker 1: So I remember when I was a member of CBS
Speaker 1: and I charted Ryan Fitzpatrick eighty nine games, ninety two turnovers.
Speaker 1: So you know he's gonna throw you one, or he's
Speaker 1: gonna put one out there for you to throw. You
Speaker 1: just gotta make sure you catch it. You know, it's
Speaker 1: gonna be important that they make sure that they stop
Speaker 1: the running game because they're gonna lean heavy on the
Speaker 1: running game and try and take shots, you know, with
Speaker 1: uh with Jackson, and you gotta you gotta be aware
Speaker 1: of Breaka Greatest great Greatest. The is the X factor
Speaker 1: for them. But I think this is a very winnable game.
Speaker 1: And it's not all the time about who you play.
Speaker 1: Is when you play them, and I think you had
Speaker 1: a momentum. This team is feeling sorry for themselves. They
Speaker 1: won't be playing with their leader, their uncut clear winner
Speaker 1: leader and Jameis Winson. So you have an opportunity and listen,
Speaker 1: you don't make any excuses. You go in there and
Speaker 1: you you beat them down and you and you put
Speaker 1: that down in their heads early and you make Ryan
Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick has to beat you from the pocket. And defensively,
Speaker 1: this team has dealt with a number of injuries. Man,
Speaker 1: they can't stop the run and they've had a lot
Speaker 1: of difficulty setting the edge, and the Jets should be
Speaker 1: feeling real good about the run game right now heading
Speaker 1: down the Tampa Well. Absolutely. You know, the first time
Speaker 1: you saw like what the Jets were capable of when
Speaker 1: they're all on the same page was against the Jacksonville
Speaker 1: Jaguars because everybody was on the string, everybody understood what
Speaker 1: front they saw. You know, they had nine men in
Speaker 1: the box that's almost impossible to block, but they were
Speaker 1: letting the backside guy go and climbing directly up to
Speaker 1: the linebackers get in their face and then letting somebody
Speaker 1: letting two guys going blocking seven. And you have to
Speaker 1: be on the same page as far as communication to
Speaker 1: be able to do that. What I loved against the
Speaker 1: Bills is that sometimes they were getting two yards three
Speaker 1: yards early and John Morton just said, we're keeping at it.
Speaker 1: Were a kid at chop wood here, and then eventually
Speaker 1: it broke blal Paul had a couple fantastic runs call
Speaker 1: back in half. Yeah, you know, a big one called
Speaker 1: back and you know, um, and that's what it is
Speaker 1: when you have a three headed monster and you just
Speaker 1: want to keep you know, their body blows, you know,
Speaker 1: and sometimes you know, it's tough sledding. You know, it's
Speaker 1: a yard here, a yard there, two yards, three yards here.
Speaker 1: But all you gotta do is have a couple of explosives.
Speaker 1: You know, they can change the game. That's how you
Speaker 1: break the team's will. That's how you take their legs away,
Speaker 1: so to speak. All right, so through nine games that
Speaker 1: Jets the rank number twenty two and offense number eighteen. Uh,
Speaker 1: number eighteen in terms of rusheet number twenty five in
Speaker 1: terms of passing? Uh, what do you like? And where
Speaker 1: does this team got to get better offensively? Well? I
Speaker 1: think they have to be able to get some more
Speaker 1: explosive plays. I might like to see them take some
Speaker 1: more shots down the field, because you take shots down
Speaker 1: the field one or two, you know, three things can happen,
Speaker 1: and and and two of them are good for the
Speaker 1: for the offense, either you catch it, or you get
Speaker 1: passing inference or you know, you gotta think most guys
Speaker 1: on defense play defense because they can't catch. So you know,
Speaker 1: it's a low possibility on one on one coverage that
Speaker 1: you know the defender is gonna pick it off. So
Speaker 1: I'd like to see them take some more shots down
Speaker 1: to feel, you know, I'd like to see some more
Speaker 1: explosive players from the special teams as far as in
Speaker 1: the return game, you know, And that's all about chemistry
Speaker 1: and time and as well, you know, being able to
Speaker 1: to to really scheme guys. And I think they do
Speaker 1: a great job in the coverage units, you know, I
Speaker 1: think they're flipping and field a lot. But I like
Speaker 1: to see them start to get some more explosive plays
Speaker 1: where you can you know, get the offensive ball on
Speaker 1: the forty, say, on kickoff return, or you know, be
Speaker 1: able to get more than ten yards, you know, on
Speaker 1: on punt return. What about defensively number twenty five in
Speaker 1: the National Football League number twenty three and rushing number
Speaker 1: twenty against the past? What do you like? And especially
Speaker 1: off the last game, you had to be tremendously excited
Speaker 1: about the way they bottled up Lachar McCoy, one of
Speaker 1: the top two or three backs, maybe top two backs
Speaker 1: in the National Football League, and then they finally got
Speaker 1: to the passer. Yeah, Well, I like the way that
Speaker 1: the linebackers are coming downhill. I like that they're committing
Speaker 1: and they're making it a physical battle, because that's really
Speaker 1: what it's all about. It's a physical challenge, you know.
Speaker 1: I think in the first game, Buffalo won the line
Speaker 1: the scrimmage on both sides of the ball, and it
Speaker 1: showed in the stats. I think, you know, without a question,
Speaker 1: you know, the we want the line of scrimmage and
Speaker 1: and really set the tone in the temple with with
Speaker 1: our physicality. You know. I think what they really have
Speaker 1: to do, like you said, they have to continue not
Speaker 1: so much all the time about you know, the sacks,
Speaker 1: but I like to see them get more hits on
Speaker 1: the quarterback, you know. I'd like to see them, you know,
Speaker 1: be a little smarter on on third down, you know,
Speaker 1: and be able to get off the field and win
Speaker 1: the situational football game. I like to see this team
Speaker 1: get some maturity and understand about situational football and being
Speaker 1: able to win in the tight spots. When I say
Speaker 1: the tight spots, you know you want to go. You
Speaker 1: want to start the game well, you want to make
Speaker 1: sure that you know, you disrupt the team first fifth
Speaker 1: team play drive, which they have scripted and get them
Speaker 1: behind so you can knock that out the way. And
Speaker 1: you want to make sure when you come out the
Speaker 1: locker room and if you you know, received at the
Speaker 1: beginning of the half and you come out on defense,
Speaker 1: you're throwing on them again. Those are the situations you
Speaker 1: want to make sure you win all the time in
Speaker 1: two minute drills. Yeah, well, we gotta get to Mario
Speaker 1: Davis here. You're old, uh chestnut, Yeah, you're older. Primis listen,
Speaker 1: uh because theyre and Lee came on the show, and
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, over the last three or four weeks,
Speaker 1: he's been fantastic. So Fantasy Honors by Kurs maybe one
Speaker 1: touchdown or two touchdownsers. We'll come right back. We will
Speaker 1: take a look at the a f C landscape. I
Speaker 1: don't even want to call it the playoff pitcher, but
Speaker 1: we'll see where the Jets are in the a f C.
Speaker 1: As we come right back here and inside the Jets. Boy,
Speaker 1: hour goes quick, doesn't it, hey man, Especially when you
Speaker 1: got a first guest that give you some good content. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like one more week on let Robbie Live. You got
Speaker 1: one more week, okay, you know, after Robbie appeared on
Speaker 1: Inside the Jets. He had three consecutive games where he
Speaker 1: got a touch up back. Yeah, man, he owld us something. Okay,
Speaker 1: we got him high. So how about that. So let's
Speaker 1: look at the FC right now. Pittsburgh on top of
Speaker 1: the conference with the six and two mark um based
Speaker 1: on conference record, they would have the one seat over
Speaker 1: New England. New Englands there at six and two. You
Speaker 1: got Kansas City, who started off really hot. There's six
Speaker 1: and three, still look like a solid team. You got
Speaker 1: a battle developing an FC South between the Tennessee Titans
Speaker 1: of Jacksonville Jaguars, both teams five and three, and then
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills still surprise, no matter what happened the
Speaker 1: other night at MetLife Stadium, they're sitting there at five
Speaker 1: and three. Then right after you have a group of
Speaker 1: teams who are tightly packed together. Miami's four and four,
Speaker 1: Dakland Raiders are four and five, the New York Jets
Speaker 1: are four and five, The Baltimore Ravens are four and five.
Speaker 1: Used to say, man, it's a raff of them. Many
Speaker 1: they just don't look they can't stay healthy. They don't
Speaker 1: have to depend on Danny woodhann and see if he
Speaker 1: can bring him something. But you know, I don't. They
Speaker 1: don't look right, don't look right. The Houston Texans three
Speaker 1: and five missing DeShawn Watson. That was after losing J. J.
Speaker 1: Watt and then he got done for Cincinnatti and San Diego.
Speaker 1: So the Jets can they get in the mix here
Speaker 1: with the win this week and be playing meaningful football
Speaker 1: in December when nobody, nobody except for a few people
Speaker 1: maybe internally and maybe yourself part Scott thought that would
Speaker 1: be the case in August. I'll tell you what eight
Speaker 1: eight nineties seven could be that final wild card spot.
Speaker 1: You know, it's going to be pivotal that they get
Speaker 1: this game this week and then they're gonna have to
Speaker 1: pack their lunch pale when they have to go down
Speaker 1: and see Carolina, because you know that's Carolina is coming out. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm just saying when they played Carolina, they're gonna have
Speaker 1: a packing lunch man, because that's a physical football team,
Speaker 1: a veteran football team defensively. And Cam when he's on,
Speaker 1: he's on UM. I think he's still searching for something
Speaker 1: after losing Benjamin. You know, they're trying to force feed
Speaker 1: McCaffrey a lot of production you know, he gets a
Speaker 1: lot of you know, catches, but it's not a lot
Speaker 1: of yards. You know, that's gonna be the pivotal game
Speaker 1: right there. I think if they get these next two,
Speaker 1: I think they will be on their way till eight
Speaker 1: and eight, nine and seven. I think that can get
Speaker 1: them in. I don't believe in the Broncos quarterback issues.
Speaker 1: One thing you can say when you talk about the Jets,
Speaker 1: you don't have to worry about the quarterback play. The
Speaker 1: quarterback play is going to be solid, and you know,
Speaker 1: you have cautions about Dalton, you have cautions about the
Speaker 1: protection in the run game. You know, when you talk
Speaker 1: about the Chargers, you talk about the Texans, I mean
Speaker 1: they signed t J. Yates and mcgloyd. I don't even
Speaker 1: know mcglod spent more than a half a season in
Speaker 1: the NFL and if he didn't have a relationship with
Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien, if he would even got that phone call.
Speaker 1: And then you go, you go to Oakland, Oaklands and
Speaker 1: downwards Spired. They're gonna knock each other off within that division.
Speaker 1: They still have to. They're not finished with their division play.
Speaker 1: So I think you know, they knocked themselves out and
Speaker 1: I'm still not a real believer in the Buffalo Bills.
Speaker 1: You know, they have to prove it over a period
Speaker 1: of time, you know, and we'll see what that what
Speaker 1: that falls. But Tennessee and Buffalo I think will be
Speaker 1: the front runners, and I think the Jets are right
Speaker 1: there in the mix. Yeah. So the bottom line is
Speaker 1: the Jets gonna have to string together a number of
Speaker 1: victories here. It all starts this weekend against Tampa. You
Speaker 1: mentioned Ryan Fitzpatrick before he's starting this week against the
Speaker 1: New York Jets played two seasons here, a highly productive
Speaker 1: campaign in two thousand and fifteen. It went the other
Speaker 1: direction of two thousand and sixteen. Is the Jets finished
Speaker 1: five and eleven. You've been part of the defenses who
Speaker 1: have game plan against him? What what what is? What?
Speaker 1: What is it like in that room? What are his strengths?
Speaker 1: And then from a player's perspective, what do you know
Speaker 1: what you can do to him? When I played against him,
Speaker 1: I'll try to get pro Bowl statch Man, I'll tell
Speaker 1: you what well you have to you know, he what
Speaker 1: about Ryan Fitzpatrick? How we always played Ryan Fitzpatrick. He's
Speaker 1: a very smart guy, believe you. From Harvard right, So
Speaker 1: he he thinks he's the smartest man on the football field.
Speaker 1: With being said, you present some looks, he's already gonna
Speaker 1: predetermine where he's going with the football. So we always
Speaker 1: know knew that he didn't have a strong arm, so
Speaker 1: he either had to be roll he had to roll
Speaker 1: out to throw the ball far down the field. He
Speaker 1: really couldn't throw the ball far down the field that
Speaker 1: he throws vertical routes, but he lets the ball go early.
Speaker 1: He doesn't hold it pat the ball, let the receiver win.
Speaker 1: He throws him by the receiver still covered, hoping that
Speaker 1: they can uncover down the field because he doesn't have
Speaker 1: the biggest arm. So what that being said is what
Speaker 1: you wanna do is you want to pack the boundary
Speaker 1: and make all his throws, even the outs and things,
Speaker 1: you have to make him throw across the field. So
Speaker 1: the balls he's gonna be on one hash. So if
Speaker 1: the ball is on the right hatch, you want to
Speaker 1: make him have to throw the ball to the left.
Speaker 1: The ball is on the left hash, you want to pack,
Speaker 1: you know, with coverage to the to that short side
Speaker 1: of the field, making him have to throw the ball
Speaker 1: across his field because he doesn't have a strong arm.
Speaker 1: And if I'm a receiver, understanding if I'm a defensive
Speaker 1: back or defender, you know that he predetermines where he's
Speaker 1: going on for the ball. So you flat foot everything.
Speaker 1: You jump the first thing that you see, because if
Speaker 1: he's gonna give a double move, the double move is
Speaker 1: only going to be about twenty yards before it hits
Speaker 1: the receiver's hands. He's not throwing a fifty yard bomb.
Speaker 1: He's not throwing a sixty yard bomb. So you put
Speaker 1: coverage over the top and you squat on everything. You
Speaker 1: make him beat you throwing the ball down the field,
Speaker 1: so the opportunities will be there. Have I ever lost
Speaker 1: a Ryan this week? Again? For the Jet to get
Speaker 1: a number of takeaways because Tampa it's the same game
Speaker 1: plan every week. I know people kind of roll their eyes,
Speaker 1: but it really is, you gotta take away Doug Martin
Speaker 1: and he's struggled this year because Tampa is not getting
Speaker 1: any pushed up front. You talk about being in the trenches.
Speaker 1: The Jets have to win in the trenches again on
Speaker 1: paper they should. Now this is a big steps for
Speaker 1: maturity wise for this young It's gonna be a man's
Speaker 1: game too. You talk about the understand their limited so
Speaker 1: they're gonna try and establish a run. And you gotta
Speaker 1: remember that day play on grass, so it's not the
Speaker 1: fastest surface and it's not the most steady surface, so
Speaker 1: you gotta make sure that your feet wears right, make
Speaker 1: sure that you got the long spikes on. You know.
Speaker 1: With that being said, you got to make sure that
Speaker 1: you don't step with the inside foot or trying to
Speaker 1: cut off your inside foot. Everything is about planning on
Speaker 1: the outside foot, so you keep your balance, sink your hips,
Speaker 1: and make sure that you come under control offensively. If
Speaker 1: you get a lead against this team, what do you
Speaker 1: think happens? Because we saw against New Orleans frustration for
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers. First of all, um, I'm sorry if the
Speaker 1: game has changed. Man the quarterback who's out the game
Speaker 1: because he's injured, I've never seen that took a defensive
Speaker 1: player and pop them in the back of his head.
Speaker 1: How would first Scott man how to grab James by
Speaker 1: that frown, drug him up and down that football field.
Speaker 1: That nose would have been bloody, man, you can't miss
Speaker 1: that big nose. I would have mess man, Come on,
Speaker 1: are you serious? A quarterback. Oh man, you killing me pet,
Speaker 1: So Jamis will not be in action this week, and
Speaker 1: no thould have a plug put out his head, nor
Speaker 1: will Bert Scott, even though he might be available for
Speaker 1: a couple of hits. Right, hey, listen, man, I'm in
Speaker 1: tremendous shape and you are in good shape. The great
Speaker 1: thing is when you don't play anymore, you never, you never,
Speaker 1: you never chip away. Hey, I didn't want to ask
Speaker 1: you this. We get about forty five seconds. How about
Speaker 1: the play of tomorrow, Davis indarren ly we talked about
Speaker 1: it before, but uh Todd Bowl said he used both
Speaker 1: of them to spy individually, and at times both of
Speaker 1: them against Tyrod Taller. Well, listen, that was just a
Speaker 1: total lack of respect for everybody else all the skill positions.
Speaker 1: Did did Charles Clay play? No? He did not, so
Speaker 1: Charles Clay, So that's one less threat. Shady didn't seem
Speaker 1: like he was himself. So now you're able to make
Speaker 1: sure that you can have two spies because it's hard
Speaker 1: when you're in the middle. Because you can, you can
Speaker 1: run into a lot of trash. You feel a lot
Speaker 1: more confident when you have two linebackers. So next week
Speaker 1: when we come back Jets five and five. Absolutely, we'll
Speaker 1: see you next week. Three picks from fris Pack Drink
