Speaker 1: Like games on the world, you played to win the
Speaker 1: game as a Jet toucksdown Jet. You're listening to the
Speaker 1: Official Jets Podcast Jets three sixty production. Guys didn't get down,
Speaker 1: they didn't blink. They fall back from adversity right now.
Speaker 1: They grow them every week. They gain in confidence in
Speaker 1: each other and we'll play another team. Welcome inside the
Speaker 1: Official Jets Podcast. Seven Greenberg and Eric Allan here bringing
Speaker 1: you the Jets Brown game preview e A. The Jets
Speaker 1: looking to extend their winning street to three games. Of
Speaker 1: course started the season oh and two homestand two and
Speaker 1: oh of course you put those together. We're not to
Speaker 1: and two here entering week five after the first quarter
Speaker 1: of the season, we got a great show in store
Speaker 1: for you today. Brian ball Danger from My Phone Network
Speaker 1: will be joining us, and then Chap Penny is back
Speaker 1: in the rotation this week. Uh and he'll be as
Speaker 1: accurate as ever. So before we dive in to Jets
Speaker 1: Brown specifically, what's been the biggest improvement, the biggest change
Speaker 1: from this team from the first two weeks to the
Speaker 1: second two weeks. This team said that we're building towards
Speaker 1: something in Oakland, and we saw that against the Miami Dolphins.
Speaker 1: They really dominated on both sides of the ball in
Speaker 1: that game. And then we saw it another stuff in
Speaker 1: their revolution against the Jacksonville Jaguars, as the Jets put
Speaker 1: themselves in really solid position up twenty and ten and
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter and then a couple of miscues and
Speaker 1: all of a sudden urine overtime, and it didn't look
Speaker 1: too good at times there in the fifth quarter, but
Speaker 1: they found a way to win. So now you're seeing
Speaker 1: it different things from this team. They get one victory
Speaker 1: in terms of and in that game had a totally
Speaker 1: different feel than the Jacksonville game because from start to finish,
Speaker 1: the Jets were in control against Miami. Against ja Xonville,
Speaker 1: they were control late let it slip away, but regained
Speaker 1: firm grasp with a ball game by winning and overtime.
Speaker 1: So you know, good teams find different ways to win,
Speaker 1: and the Jets are starting to show signs of becoming
Speaker 1: a good team. Okay, now you have to have the consistency,
Speaker 1: and you want to see that this week against the
Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns. I think he's really cool to see this
Speaker 1: team develop and grow a group of very young guys,
Speaker 1: obviously minus a couple of people such as Josh McCown,
Speaker 1: who's making somewhat of a homecoming to Cleveland. He was
Speaker 1: there for the past two seasons before this year, and
Speaker 1: he's been tremendous. Will touch on him a little bit later,
Speaker 1: But when you watch this team, you know, there was
Speaker 1: so much talk about the team being a young team,
Speaker 1: being extremely young, and two things stick out to me
Speaker 1: what head coach Todd Bowl said. He said, one, there's
Speaker 1: no age on winning. You don't have to be a
Speaker 1: certain age to win. And I thought that was pretty cool.
Speaker 1: And then after the Jets made a flurry of moves
Speaker 1: releasing a bunch of veterans after last season, Todd said,
Speaker 1: entering team, we might not have the same names, but
Speaker 1: we got the same players, and it's really cool to
Speaker 1: see that come to fruition through the first four weeks
Speaker 1: of the season. And you know, we'll touch on this
Speaker 1: a little bit later with Chad Pennington, but we're seeing
Speaker 1: the future of this team get experience. On Sunday, I
Speaker 1: think I just want to jump off of something you said.
Speaker 1: Here is Durrow Rievas was releasing offseason. He's not signed
Speaker 1: with the team. Nick Mangold Unfortunately you know, health problems
Speaker 1: are holding him back, and we don't know if Nick
Speaker 1: Mangol is ever gonna play again. David Harris, who had
Speaker 1: a tremendous career here with the Jets. So far with
Speaker 1: the Patriots, he's been unable to correct that lineup and
Speaker 1: that defense is struggling. Um Brandon Marshall, he's been during
Speaker 1: a lot of struggles. A cross town right now. Eric
Speaker 1: Decker has said some ups and donalds with Tennessee. So
Speaker 1: you know, the Jets didn't make a lot of changes
Speaker 1: to the roster, but let's talk about some of the
Speaker 1: people they brought in. Jermain Curse is leading the team
Speaker 1: and receptions, Jeremy Curley second on the team or receptions.
Speaker 1: Josh McCown's completed seventy of his passes because he's comfortable
Speaker 1: with some of these veteran wide outs whom Mike mccagnet
Speaker 1: and company have brought in on the defensive side of
Speaker 1: the ball. How about Cony Eally against Jackson Felt four
Speaker 1: p ds. That's a person who New England cut loose,
Speaker 1: and the Jets said, hey can help us out. And
Speaker 1: look at what Todd Bowles and Casey Rodgers are doing.
Speaker 1: With him up front four p ds that's a franchise record.
Speaker 1: Also had an interception that's set up a field goal
Speaker 1: for the Jets as they took a ten point leading
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. Mccagnet trades Dexter McDougal, who had an
Speaker 1: impressive training camp at the cornerback position. But mccagnet thought, hey, listen,
Speaker 1: I need something to the safety position. Brings in Terence Brooks,
Speaker 1: and the guy has been in revelation. He leads the
Speaker 1: team with two interceptions one of the games after MIAMIFC
Speaker 1: defensive player the week. But he's a professional, he's tough,
Speaker 1: he's a good tackler, and he gives Bowls and Casey
Speaker 1: Rogers flexibility in terms of how many safeties they're using.
Speaker 1: Greens this week you wrote about the Jets not only
Speaker 1: employing three safety packages but four because ron tes Miles
Speaker 1: was back in the lineup last week. And then finally
Speaker 1: look at the linebacker position. David Basses came in here
Speaker 1: from Seattle. He's got a couple of sacks. So credit
Speaker 1: the personnel department and credit the coaching staff. So yes,
Speaker 1: those guys, none of those guys maybe curse a little
Speaker 1: bit because he's had tasted success at the super Bowl level,
Speaker 1: he's got a championship ring, and he's played under the
Speaker 1: brightest lights. But a lot of those guys that I
Speaker 1: just mentioned aren't household names like the other guys we
Speaker 1: mentioned at the top who the as part of your
Speaker 1: ways with an off season. But they've come in here
Speaker 1: and they are producing immediately. I want to take it
Speaker 1: a step further when you talk about the personnel department.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about you know, someone like Robby Anderson who
Speaker 1: was an undrafted free agent a year ago and now
Speaker 1: he's the starting wide receiver for the New York Jets.
Speaker 1: Or how about Lord Thomas, undrafted free agent he plays
Speaker 1: offense defense four, So if you're ordering his jersey jet
Speaker 1: shop dot Com, it's four or four. But does that
Speaker 1: make the nine seven? Uh? You know, I say, you
Speaker 1: always can keep it well. But then you look at
Speaker 1: some of the other guys that it's like K and
Speaker 1: eight exactly. But but how about someone like Brandon Shell,
Speaker 1: fifth round draft pick now starting on the right side
Speaker 1: of the offensive who just had ninety three yards and wow,
Speaker 1: he showed some quicks against Or how about Justin Burris,
Speaker 1: fourth year pick, or Darryl rob Verset, who has claimed
Speaker 1: off of waivers at the beginning of last year. Those
Speaker 1: two guys have been opposite Morris Clayborne when buster screen
Speaker 1: goes in the nickel. Or how about Austin Sopherian Jenkins
Speaker 1: who has claimed on waivers last year. Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 1: So listen, this is all about the Jets coming together
Speaker 1: and building and Christopher Johnson instead of a couple of
Speaker 1: weeks ago after the Oakland game that this team's gonna
Speaker 1: win some games when you know they went two in
Speaker 1: a row after Christopher Johnson said that, and there will
Speaker 1: be grand pains along the way. It's still gonna happen.
Speaker 1: We all know that. But this team right now is
Speaker 1: exciting because you're seeing some of these younger guys mesh
Speaker 1: in with some of those older players. Uh and Josh McCown,
Speaker 1: one of the three players on this roster over thirties,
Speaker 1: completing his passes. We'll break it down with you Pennington later,
Speaker 1: but you know breaks it down great Brian Baldinger from
Speaker 1: NFL netwhere you have to follow him at Baldy and
Speaker 1: especially on Monday's because on Monday's this guy is breaking
Speaker 1: it down. Inside the film realm tremendous job is always faulty.
Speaker 1: First off, just how impressed have you been by Jet
Speaker 1: safety Jamal Adams because you're all over him so far
Speaker 1: earlier season I called him Cobra because he strikes like
Speaker 1: a cobra, and uh, you know, he plays with a
Speaker 1: great deal of confidence, great deal movement and um, you know,
Speaker 1: he just appierced hitter, appierced competitor. But you really can't
Speaker 1: take your eyes off from just some of the touchdown
Speaker 1: saving tackles. You know, a couple of weeks ago against
Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch, coming across the field to the other side
Speaker 1: of the field, you know, tackling him, you know, at
Speaker 1: the three yard line to touchdown saving tackle. Yesterday at
Speaker 1: the end of regulation time on Chris Ivory and saving
Speaker 1: that touchdown and forcing the field goal. I mean, those
Speaker 1: kind of plays or splash plays. But then just you know,
Speaker 1: just just a pure joy that it played the game with. Man,
Speaker 1: he's having a good time out there, and I don't
Speaker 1: think he's really looking at any records or score boards
Speaker 1: or anything. I think he's just enjoying playing the game.
Speaker 1: Having the energy of someone like Jamal Adams. What do
Speaker 1: you think what kind of impact does that have on
Speaker 1: a Jets team that's extremely young. Bro, It's contagious. It's
Speaker 1: really contagious, you know. I mean him and Marcus back
Speaker 1: their safeties and you know, make more clay Buster screen.
Speaker 1: I mean, these guys are in their second and third
Speaker 1: chances in this league. They're just looking for an opportunity
Speaker 1: to continue to play. And you get this, you know,
Speaker 1: you know, young hot shot. I don't want to call
Speaker 1: me a hot shot. I mean, here's young safety coming
Speaker 1: in playing with all this confidence and and energy, and
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, I think it's just it's just contagious.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think I think everybody wants to play
Speaker 1: at that level. And uh, you know a lot of
Speaker 1: it is obviously he he doesn't look like he gets
Speaker 1: fools very often. He doesn't look like he blows many assignments.
Speaker 1: So I mean, his head to the game all week
Speaker 1: and nothing's too big for him. You know, the situations
Speaker 1: to layers yesterday. You know, whether it's regulation over time, Uh,
Speaker 1: there's a chance to win a game. That's that's all
Speaker 1: he was trying to do is trying to contribute to that.
Speaker 1: But I think everybody is speeding dolcome right now. I
Speaker 1: saw the Jets defense with a number of big stops,
Speaker 1: and you saw the energy of them come sprinting off
Speaker 1: the field. We just see that necessarily start start the season.
Speaker 1: But there was a lot of huge, you know, third
Speaker 1: down stops of one just bigger than the other, just
Speaker 1: to get the game into overtime. And I've found networks
Speaker 1: Bryan bal during her here joining us on the Official
Speaker 1: Jets podcast, Baldy, you followed a Todd Bowls throughout his
Speaker 1: coaching career. Now, with what the Jets have in terms
Speaker 1: of talent with their front line at safety, when we're
Speaker 1: talking about Jamal Adams and Marcus May of course, and
Speaker 1: that depth in the former Terrence Brooks and ran Teized Miles,
Speaker 1: just how much does that open things up for him
Speaker 1: and Casey ro Rodgers as play callers. Now, well, Cherish
Speaker 1: Books was huge. You know, he was trading He came
Speaker 1: from the Codel Eagles. He was shocked that he was
Speaker 1: traded in a situation, you know, for late round draft
Speaker 1: because he played well in Philadelphia in the preseason and
Speaker 1: the guys that are here they moved for Baltimore, and
Speaker 1: so you know he's just looking for a chance to play,
Speaker 1: and you know, whether it was in the slot, wherever,
Speaker 1: it's a special teams, he was looking for an opportunity
Speaker 1: right now. And I just thought, I just think that
Speaker 1: became good. Preseason in Philadelphia, I lived here, I had
Speaker 1: a chance to kind of watch him play a little bit.
Speaker 1: But now you know, he's getting that opportunity, and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, I think he's making the best of it
Speaker 1: right now. And so, uh you can't help but notice
Speaker 1: some of these guys that are are getting that opportunity,
Speaker 1: what they're doing with Well, what do you what do
Speaker 1: you think of me? So far? Um obviously came in
Speaker 1: from Florida, a guy who was, uh, he made a
Speaker 1: lot of plays at Florida. He was a ball hawk
Speaker 1: here in the summer, still looking for his first career interception.
Speaker 1: But everybody to him man Todd Bowles Waldy says, this
Speaker 1: guy is a tremendous open field tackler and he also
Speaker 1: is a guy responsible for getting everybody in place back there. Well,
Speaker 1: I agree, And then you know they go back and
Speaker 1: forth between l s U, where Jamal is from, and
Speaker 1: you know markets at Florida, which is DBU. I mean,
Speaker 1: both of them both schools had you know, three defensive
Speaker 1: backs drafted, you know, and uh, all these guys are
Speaker 1: playing and you know, all the guys from l s
Speaker 1: U with Jamal are all playing with Davis White's playing
Speaker 1: really well up in Buffalo. But you know, they just
Speaker 1: they come from the conference where they're used to seeing
Speaker 1: running backs like Leonard four Nett. You know, they used
Speaker 1: to seeing the elite players in the NFL coming through
Speaker 1: Alabama and through Florida, and so you know, they get
Speaker 1: here and a lot of these guys, I mean, I
Speaker 1: know that his defensive back coach at Florida's now the
Speaker 1: head coach you know a Temple, Jeff Collins, and he
Speaker 1: played a lot of NFL type defenses. They're in Florida,
Speaker 1: a lot of NFL type coverages, you know, and they
Speaker 1: see a lot of NFL all offenses, you know, with
Speaker 1: the power run game in the SEC. So I think
Speaker 1: if it helps prepare them, you know for the NFL.
Speaker 1: But you know that's the college game. Is the college game.
Speaker 1: These guys got a prepared differ for a whole lot more.
Speaker 1: The playbooks a lot bigger. What teams do offensively is
Speaker 1: much more diverse, and you know, the big thing a
Speaker 1: safety in this businesses make sure your eyes in the
Speaker 1: wrong are in the right place. And it looks like
Speaker 1: both Marcus and Jamal, even Jamal just watching him yesterday,
Speaker 1: like he doesn't really fire until he's sure his play
Speaker 1: actually could pool any safeties in this business, you know,
Speaker 1: some of these US repass options that that they have
Speaker 1: going on. Uh, you know, if you put your eyes
Speaker 1: in the wrong place, you're gonna get fooled. They're gonna
Speaker 1: get what they want. They're gonna get the ball behind you.
Speaker 1: And yesterday they couldn't get the ball over their head
Speaker 1: chest face, So their eyes are the right place, and
Speaker 1: that's a big place. That's a big part of playing
Speaker 1: safety at a young age here in the league. On
Speaker 1: the other side of the ball, what have been your
Speaker 1: initial impressions of Josh McCown, who's the thirty eight year
Speaker 1: old VET, the only quarterback remaining from the O two draft,
Speaker 1: and coming into this year, it was a question of
Speaker 1: is he just going to serve as a leader to
Speaker 1: both Bryce Petty and Christian Hackenburgh. But so far the
Speaker 1: Jets are five hundred and very well called Monday could
Speaker 1: be three and two. Yeah, I mean, look, I mean Josh.
Speaker 1: Looking about Josh is he's very well prepared and he's
Speaker 1: a complete pro. I don't know if Josh is on
Speaker 1: a sixth team right now. Seven team I've lost tee well.
Speaker 1: I mean I remember Josh making his first start in
Speaker 1: the NFL. I did the game. He's two thousand two
Speaker 1: against the Cowboys. It was in Dallas, and Dallas did
Speaker 1: everything they could to le He's a Texas kid, Texas tough,
Speaker 1: you know, and you know Dallas did in two thousand
Speaker 1: and two, did everything they could to disrupt him, and
Speaker 1: it couldn't. I mean, he was a tremendous athlete. Here
Speaker 1: he is fifteen years later, he's still bouncing around. He
Speaker 1: knows how to prepare. He's been a lot of systems, um.
Speaker 1: He knows how to get guys lined up. And uh look,
Speaker 1: I mean they hit him yesterday. They've got a good
Speaker 1: pass rush there. They hit him, but they didn't discourage him,
Speaker 1: and he didn't make many mistakes yesterday. So you know,
Speaker 1: for the most part, he's been stayed and that's what
Speaker 1: they need at that position. They don't have a lot
Speaker 1: of stars out there. They pick up a Jeremy Curly,
Speaker 1: that an Austin safarian. Jake is getting an opportunity. You know,
Speaker 1: the lou Pow has an amazing game yesterday. You know Curse,
Speaker 1: I mean, they're picking guys up off the wire. It's
Speaker 1: up to him to make sure that these guys don't
Speaker 1: they're doing, make sure that their line, make sure they're
Speaker 1: doing the right places. He's got to do all that
Speaker 1: because it's a lot to ask guys that are coming
Speaker 1: into a new system, you know, from other teams in
Speaker 1: a short notice and getting up speed and ready to play,
Speaker 1: and you know you can play two thirds of your
Speaker 1: passage on the day where the running game was really
Speaker 1: was really rolling against the talented defense. Um, it was
Speaker 1: an amazing day. I mean they put up almost five
Speaker 1: hundred yards of offense. Not many jets for the last
Speaker 1: few years to say they put up five hundre yards
Speaker 1: offense an opponents this league, and Josh is the quarterback
Speaker 1: of it. Yeah, you're right, Pa, I'll tell you why.
Speaker 1: I think both Greens and I would say that offensive
Speaker 1: coordinator John Morton has done a tremendous job with all
Speaker 1: the movie pieces you mentioned. They forementioned Jermaine Curse and
Speaker 1: Austin Seferian Jenkins and Jeremy Curly and Eli McGuire had
Speaker 1: ninety three yards rushing against the Jags. The offensive line
Speaker 1: did a tremendous job. They ran it down their throat
Speaker 1: U for more than two hundred and fifty yards, averaging
Speaker 1: eight yards per carry with thirty rush at timpts. But
Speaker 1: since this is the official preview on the Jets Official podcast,
Speaker 1: what do you think about this matchup this weekend in Cleveland?
Speaker 1: That Browns still searching for their first win. They're gonna
Speaker 1: play hard for Hugh Jackson. But what do you think
Speaker 1: about the Jets this weekend going to Lake Gary and
Speaker 1: trying to secure their third straight victory. Well, I think
Speaker 1: you know when you when you look at the Jets
Speaker 1: defense here, they're going up against the Shawn Kaiser, rookie.
Speaker 1: He's making rookie mistakes. Um, I think you gotta affect him.
Speaker 1: You gotta affect the Shawn Kaiser. You gotta get him
Speaker 1: to cough the ball up to make some mistakes. Uh.
Speaker 1: He stares down as receivers a bit. Um, he's not
Speaker 1: the most accurate guy. Uh. They're hungry, they're getting closed.
Speaker 1: Yesterday was a disaster for him as cleete as Cincinnati
Speaker 1: came to town and the game was never close at
Speaker 1: all during it, and um, you know, Sincinnati put it
Speaker 1: all together for the first time the season. So but look,
Speaker 1: I mean, they're not going over in sixteen like a
Speaker 1: lot of people thought the Jets might. But this is
Speaker 1: a great opportunity to get North to five. There's no
Speaker 1: question this is not a complete football team. They're struggling
Speaker 1: for confidence. Um do you never take any of these
Speaker 1: teams lightly. They've got talent, but this is a very
Speaker 1: winnable game for the Jets. And if they can run
Speaker 1: the ball anything like they did yesterday, it really helps.
Speaker 1: It helps everybody else out you know what I mean. Uh,
Speaker 1: that's just it's just way it is in this league.
Speaker 1: When you can get uh you know, the I think
Speaker 1: they had, you know, they had somewhere around thirty or
Speaker 1: thirty two carries yesterday. They really bounced it up, so
Speaker 1: they got the play action off it. When you run
Speaker 1: the ball thirty two times were as effective as they
Speaker 1: did the play action, you gotta make it payoff. And
Speaker 1: yesterday they got they got a couple of shots in there.
Speaker 1: They got the shot to to Robby Anderson down the field.
Speaker 1: You know, they got the you know, the shot to
Speaker 1: this office subcurrent changes. They got some explosive plays and
Speaker 1: that's what Johnny Warden wants to do. They had six
Speaker 1: explosive plays in the passing games and that's all coming
Speaker 1: off a lot of play run action. And I don't
Speaker 1: care who you are in this league. You get stick
Speaker 1: explosive plays in the passing game, that's a pretty good
Speaker 1: day of offense. You're flip for the field position and
Speaker 1: you're picking up some big chunks. What's the Brian Baldinger
Speaker 1: formula for the Jets team in order to attack the
Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns and end up North come Monday. Well, you'd
Speaker 1: like to see that the balance that they had Jacksonville
Speaker 1: is a more talented defense in Cleveland. Doesn't mean they're
Speaker 1: gonna have the same success against Cleveland, but they're they're
Speaker 1: a talented defense. Uh. They've been a lot of money
Speaker 1: in free agency for Malie Jackson and uh, you know
Speaker 1: Calais Campbell, and they've drafted at the top of the
Speaker 1: draft for guys like Jalen Ramsey and Miles jack Better,
Speaker 1: et cetera. But you know, they haven't put it together.
Speaker 1: And Cleveland's got a lot of talent on that side
Speaker 1: of the ball to you make see you know, the
Speaker 1: first pack, the first pick in the draft this weekend, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, which would be interesting to see what Miles
Speaker 1: can do, uh in his first action should he be
Speaker 1: ready to go. But look, I thought they played well
Speaker 1: up front, thought James Carpenter, you know, having him in
Speaker 1: there next to Wesley Johnson and Brian Winners, those three
Speaker 1: guys inside for the most part, they did pretty good
Speaker 1: job of allowing McCown to step up and to really
Speaker 1: open things up in the run game. I mean, I
Speaker 1: think that's where it's gonna be one. You've seen what
Speaker 1: Calvin Beach him can do in this business. Uh, he's
Speaker 1: a natural leader when healthy. He's a good player at
Speaker 1: left hack who has been a good player Pittsburgh, was
Speaker 1: a good player in Jacksonville was healthy. He's a good player,
Speaker 1: and he really solidifies that left tackle position, the position
Speaker 1: that they trying to to figure out. Now for the
Speaker 1: last two years, you're gonna follow him at Baldy NFL.
Speaker 1: You have to follow him Green on Mondays for those
Speaker 1: video reviews, and of course we'll be watching the NFL Network.
Speaker 1: Great catching up with you, buddy, my pleasure. Yea anytime now. Alright,
Speaker 1: Baldi clearly a fan of Jamal Adams. He breaks him
Speaker 1: down every Monday. Every Monday, it's it's he's tremendous, and
Speaker 1: his film breakdown is tremendous. Something that stuck out to
Speaker 1: me is that he said Jamal Adams strikes like a cobra.
Speaker 1: And you hear Coach Bowls talk about Jamal Adams has
Speaker 1: great eyes, He reads his keys well, he reacts well,
Speaker 1: his instincts are there, and then when he and something
Speaker 1: that Baldy said is when he those then he fires.
Speaker 1: He doesn't misfire too much of you'd expect a rookie
Speaker 1: to misfire here and there, to endure some ebbs and
Speaker 1: flows of having not a lot of experience in the NFL.
Speaker 1: But he said, when Jamal Adams sees it, he attacks
Speaker 1: and he strikes like a cobra. I thought it was
Speaker 1: a great analyst. I think a lot of people said
Speaker 1: he was the cleanest prospect in the two thousand and
Speaker 1: seventeen NFL draft because he's got great football instincts and awareness.
Speaker 1: Is that he sees the game so well. You talked
Speaker 1: about Todd Bowles saying he's got great eyes. You see
Speaker 1: that on film. And you know another thing that scouts
Speaker 1: like to say is this guy's sudden. And I heard
Speaker 1: Bart Scott talk about it the other day. Um as
Speaker 1: we're prepared for Jets flight plan Aaron eleven thirty Sunday morning,
Speaker 1: So you can check out our film review packages on
Speaker 1: New York Jets dot com. He says he's sudden. That
Speaker 1: means he's explosive he gets to the ball. We think
Speaker 1: about that play made against Oakland where he hurdled over
Speaker 1: a couple of Jets defenders. He takes down marsh On Lynch.
Speaker 1: We think about the p D against Miami where he's
Speaker 1: playing center field and then he comes all the way
Speaker 1: over the boundary for a diving p D. Then last
Speaker 1: week Jackson Bill is in there, it's twenty seventeen and
Speaker 1: score a touchdown, you lose that ball game. He had
Speaker 1: a key tackle on Leonard four Netwe Chris, oh boy
Speaker 1: was it. Every looked like he had room to the
Speaker 1: edge there. In years past, you're thinking, hey, maybe that's
Speaker 1: a touchdown. But thirty three pops on the screen and
Speaker 1: he makes that tackle and that's what you wanted at
Speaker 1: the safety position. Alright, So let's transition. Now we're gonna
Speaker 1: touch on Cleveland because the Jets are playing the Browns
Speaker 1: this Sunday in the Dog Pound. The Jets to get
Speaker 1: on the road for the first time in after two
Speaker 1: games at home, first time in three, third road game
Speaker 1: this season, third exactly, and Jets are looking for their
Speaker 1: first win on the road. Granted, this is a very
Speaker 1: different team than a couple of weeks ago when the
Speaker 1: Jets traveled to Buffalo and Oakland, and Coach Bowles keeps
Speaker 1: saying that the team is only finding its identity. Well,
Speaker 1: I think it's time. Yeah, you know, we liked we
Speaker 1: couldn't do it last week. Well, let's go down to
Speaker 1: Kentucky so we can check in with Chad Pennington. Chad,
Speaker 1: what's something that you point to about this Jets team
Speaker 1: that you're very impressed with through four games of the season. Well,
Speaker 1: I think that we need to give credit to coach
Speaker 1: Bowls and his coaching staff. I think they've done an
Speaker 1: absolutely wonderful job of coaching this team. And regardless of
Speaker 1: whether or not you think that they have superstars, are
Speaker 1: good players, or what have you, I think the staff
Speaker 1: has really done a great job of coaching and teaching
Speaker 1: the aspects of the game that they want talked to
Speaker 1: their young players, and you can see that on the field.
Speaker 1: You see improvement. Uh. I saw a team Sunday that
Speaker 1: played with the energy and played together and has a
Speaker 1: good chemistry and you know, really had a chance to
Speaker 1: fold on Sunday and did not fold regardless of the
Speaker 1: adversity that they faced, because I felt like they truly
Speaker 1: outplayed Jacksonville. It shouldn't even have been an overtime win.
Speaker 1: But at least this synergy, the energy, the enthusiasm, those
Speaker 1: intangibles they're there, and I think that is um you know,
Speaker 1: a compliment to the coaching staff and what they've been
Speaker 1: able to do with this young team in four games.
Speaker 1: What do you think of the balance developing here on offense?
Speaker 1: Obviously you're not going to rush for two, one or
Speaker 1: fifty six yards every week and average eight yards of pop.
Speaker 1: But they gashed Jacksonville pretty good. Yeah. I saw in
Speaker 1: the in the Jacksonville game that they really started to
Speaker 1: establish control of the line of scrimmage, and even when
Speaker 1: they may have not gotten a lot of movement, they
Speaker 1: were covering defenders up and allowing these backs to make
Speaker 1: these cuts. And what I was really impressed with with
Speaker 1: the two running backs, was Paul McGuire, is that when
Speaker 1: they saw a crease, they put their foot in the ground,
Speaker 1: make one cut, did not dance in the hole, and
Speaker 1: they hit the scene with authority and with aggression. And
Speaker 1: that's important that that gets you the extra yard you need.
Speaker 1: That turns four yard runs into set in an eight
Speaker 1: yard run, that turns ten yard runs into explosive plays
Speaker 1: of twenty plus yard runs. And so when you can
Speaker 1: do that and you have backs that are running with
Speaker 1: a purpose like this and running with decisiveness, it really
Speaker 1: gives an energy boost to your offense. And I think
Speaker 1: they provided that in the running game. What do you
Speaker 1: make of Jets fans saying sometimes they're conflicted? I hosted
Speaker 1: a radio show the other night with Art Scott inside
Speaker 1: the Jets. You can listen to it on Official Jets podcast,
Speaker 1: not working on ESPN Radio Monday nights, seven pm. I'm
Speaker 1: watching on our Facebook page. But you know, some fans
Speaker 1: were calling up Jen saying, you know, I don't know
Speaker 1: how to feel. I like the way the Jets are
Speaker 1: playing on the field, but there's this mentality now in sports,
Speaker 1: and I think we've gotten it from maybe the Philadelphia
Speaker 1: seventies sixers, and people talking about the process and asset collection.
Speaker 1: People are looking ahead, way ahead, two things like who's
Speaker 1: going to be the top quarterback in the draft? Is
Speaker 1: Sam Donald coming out of USC? What do you think
Speaker 1: at Josh Rosen? How about Mason Rudolph All Lamar Jackson
Speaker 1: is an interesting athlete if he ever came out. How
Speaker 1: about Luke Falk from Washington State. He looked great last
Speaker 1: week and things like that. Where a lot of fans
Speaker 1: I think right now, not a lot, but there there
Speaker 1: is a minority I think out there that are look
Speaker 1: they feel like asset collection is very important, and they're
Speaker 1: just completely looking ahead. And I think what they're missing
Speaker 1: here is something that's really important going on. Like you're
Speaker 1: talking about how good a job Todd Bowles is doing it,
Speaker 1: but look at all the young players who are developing
Speaker 1: in front of our eyes, and this is where you
Speaker 1: create the future, isn't it? Well? If I could be
Speaker 1: very honest and candid with you, um and I don't
Speaker 1: mean this toward any fan, but a mentality that wants
Speaker 1: to see a team struggle to go get a certain
Speaker 1: draft pick is a loser's mentality and that can be
Speaker 1: the mentality you have as an organization that's a loser's
Speaker 1: mentality that is very hard to get rid of if
Speaker 1: you have that mentality, and it's very hard to produce
Speaker 1: success if you have that mentality. The mentality that you
Speaker 1: have to have in professional sports or any type of
Speaker 1: sporting arena, matter of fact, in business, is that we
Speaker 1: will try to win every chance we get, and every
Speaker 1: time they keep scoring a football field, we are trying
Speaker 1: to win. And all you have to do is look
Speaker 1: at the history of of draft picks of quarterbacks, and
Speaker 1: you are not guaranteed that you will get a franchise guy.
Speaker 1: Sam Donald may not be a franchise quarterback. Luke Falk
Speaker 1: may not be one. Josh Rosen may not be one.
Speaker 1: There may be another guy that it becomes the franchise
Speaker 1: quarterback because of the culture that he's placed in and
Speaker 1: the organization that he's placed with. And then sometimes there
Speaker 1: may be a quarterback that could have been a franchise quarterback,
Speaker 1: but because the organization and culture he was placed in
Speaker 1: could not reach his full potential. And so as a fan,
Speaker 1: you need to focus on and your organization and are
Speaker 1: they providing a winning culture and are they providing a
Speaker 1: place for every player to be successful. And if you
Speaker 1: have that, you don't have to have a quote top
Speaker 1: pick to have to have success. Alright, chat, So let's
Speaker 1: dive into this weekend's matchup against the Cleveland Browns. The
Speaker 1: Jets are looking to make it three in a row
Speaker 1: and have yet to win a game on the road.
Speaker 1: So what is for more of a general formula for
Speaker 1: success in as a visitor, Sunday's winning formula last week,
Speaker 1: which had a lot of negatives to it, cannot be
Speaker 1: that formula this week on the road? Uh? At the
Speaker 1: things that happened at home, that happened last week happened
Speaker 1: on the road in Cleveland. The Jets will come back
Speaker 1: with a loss. Um, So you're you're playing a desperate
Speaker 1: team and owing four team that is starving four win.
Speaker 1: And let me tell you, they're looking at this Jets
Speaker 1: team going this is a prime team for us to
Speaker 1: get our first win. That's how they're looking at the Jets.
Speaker 1: They're they're not fearing the Jets at all. Uh. They
Speaker 1: see this as they probably see themselves as equal to
Speaker 1: the Jets. The Browns two thinking that we should be
Speaker 1: two and two as well, um, and so the Jets
Speaker 1: are stepping into a situation where there can be no
Speaker 1: type of feelings that this one is already written down
Speaker 1: in the books, that this is the Jets victory just
Speaker 1: because this team is owed four. To me, this is
Speaker 1: a barometer to see how mature this Jets team is. U. Um.
Speaker 1: Are they going to step into this situation in Cleveland
Speaker 1: with a sense of urgency, with a sense of desperation
Speaker 1: like they have played with the last two games, or
Speaker 1: now are they going to step into the situation like, well,
Speaker 1: we're better than this team. We've arrived and we'll roll
Speaker 1: our helmets out there and win this game. A ton
Speaker 1: of football, lots to be plays. Uh, well said great analysis,
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, we're happy to hear that you're
Speaker 1: winning some shootouts down there in Lexington, Kentucky. Chat we are.
Speaker 1: The coach got a big victory on the Monday victory,
Speaker 1: a very exciting game, went all the way down in
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter of Uh. Just love coaching kids and
Speaker 1: being involved with games. And I hear the I hear
Speaker 1: the offensive coordinators being pretty creative. You know, the offensive
Speaker 1: coordinator was on the hot scene and he was you know,
Speaker 1: they were looking at possibly replacing him after four games
Speaker 1: that he was able to bounce back and to help
Speaker 1: the team win on Monday. Thanks buddy, We look forward
Speaker 1: to talking to you next week. Okay, thank you guys. Well, Greens,
Speaker 1: you hear the excitement and Pennyton's voice. Obviously he's really
Speaker 1: happy about the youth football success he's having down there.
Speaker 1: You know that guy really enjoys calling plays and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, good for him, and also like the way
Speaker 1: he breaks it down for us each and every week
Speaker 1: when he's available because he understands the quarterback position and
Speaker 1: he is well aware of the situation Josh McCown is
Speaker 1: in right now. And uh McCown playing at a high
Speaker 1: level for this Jets team and I anticipated it to
Speaker 1: continue this week against Cleveland. Uh, this would be something
Speaker 1: first three game win streak of mccollun's career. He's been
Speaker 1: doing this for a long time, only remaining quarterback in
Speaker 1: the two thousand two NFL draft, as we talk about,
Speaker 1: so you know it's gonna mean something to him going
Speaker 1: back there, and uh, this is this is one of
Speaker 1: those moments where like sports and not Hollywood, but the
Speaker 1: Hollywood storyline, it's kind of overlapped. I mean, you mentioned
Speaker 1: it that he's never had a three game winning streak,
Speaker 1: but if he beats his former team, then whole do
Speaker 1: that for the first time. It would be something too.
Speaker 1: If the Jets were three and two and the Patriots
Speaker 1: come to town. Listen, Patriots are a great team who's
Speaker 1: tasted a tremendous amount of success. But you know, my
Speaker 1: life stadium was jumping the first two weeks, and I
Speaker 1: would anticipate, you know, a really festive atmosphere for a
Speaker 1: Week six matchup between the two old a f C
Speaker 1: East rivals. But the Jets can't afford to look ahead
Speaker 1: of themselves, so before we had out here on the
Speaker 1: Official Jets podcast. Yeah, I asked this question every week,
Speaker 1: and that means I'm gonna ask it again. Is give
Speaker 1: me one matchup or one person that you're really looking
Speaker 1: forward to see play on Sunday. I think Marcus May
Speaker 1: and I just came up with this because even though
Speaker 1: you do ask that question every week, I just I
Speaker 1: just thought about the Jets will face some rookie quarterback
Speaker 1: for the first time. He's a guy, but who's very talented,
Speaker 1: and Deshaun Keyser, who also can tuck the ball under
Speaker 1: and run it. But if the Jets get a lead
Speaker 1: in this ball game, he's gonna put it up and
Speaker 1: they'll have some opportunities in the defensive backfield for some place.
Speaker 1: So I'm calling for a Marcus May interception. Okay, I'm calling.
Speaker 1: He's a guy who I think sometimes goes a little
Speaker 1: bit under the radar because because Adams has been so good.
Speaker 1: But I think Marcus May is gonna get his first
Speaker 1: NFL takeaway this weekend. Alright, there's a little for you.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm looking forward to the defensive line play of
Speaker 1: the New York Jets, and we talked about this earlier.
Speaker 1: I think that Leonard and Moe Wilkerson have been a
Speaker 1: little under the radar. And I think that obviously they've
Speaker 1: been a little banged up here and there, Moe with
Speaker 1: the shoulder and Leonard with the risk from a couple
Speaker 1: of weeks go. But I think this is this is
Speaker 1: the game where one of those guys gets their first
Speaker 1: sack of two thousand seventeen. Yeah, I think the Justice
Speaker 1: a couple of sexs this week. And conversely, I'm just
Speaker 1: curious to see what Myles Garrett looks like in person,
Speaker 1: because I was not a big Texas A and M
Speaker 1: A and M. Watcher. It's the number one overall pick.
Speaker 1: Draft pundans are like this guy. You know, they have
Speaker 1: their grading charts and he was one of the highest
Speaker 1: in recent years. So I want to see what this
Speaker 1: guy's like in in person. If he's legit, and I'm
Speaker 1: sure he's gonna be eager to get on the field.
Speaker 1: How many defensive players they'll have them, and if they're
Speaker 1: gonna break them in slowly as far as packages, sub packages,
Speaker 1: things like that. Is he ready to get fifty defensive snaps?
Speaker 1: He didn't play football in a long time. Now, he's
Speaker 1: been on the practice field, but you know, it's a
Speaker 1: different deal, and which leads me to the Jets tackles
Speaker 1: are doing a decent job I think right now. I
Speaker 1: think Calvin Beacham's done a very good job at left tackle.
Speaker 1: And you said Brount quality filling last week at bright
Speaker 1: tackle that Jacksonville pass us can get after the Jets
Speaker 1: shredded them on the ground. All right, that's all we
Speaker 1: have for the Official Jets Podcast game preview again. Jets
Speaker 1: and Brown's one pm this week, not CBS, two AFC
Speaker 1: teams on Fox. One of the rarities here in the NFL.
Speaker 1: Green's is going on the road with us is ever,
Speaker 1: so we might have a road report, road report next
Speaker 1: week before we preview the Jets and Patriots. But you know,
Speaker 1: the Green and White can't afford to look at that.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a fall on this weekend, all right, Jets,
Speaker 1: Browns This weekend, the Jets looking to extend their winning
Speaker 1: streak to three games. Make sure to tune in. And
Speaker 1: next week, you foreshadowed it, make sure to tune in
Speaker 1: for the road report. You know, no
