Speaker 1: but I do love this little dog. And it's Grace.
Speaker 1: She becoming attached to the dog in the short time
Speaker 1: she's had. Yeah, she's definitely attached. She didn't play with
Speaker 1: any of her toys. She played with the dog the
Speaker 1: whole time, so that was a good part. But the
Speaker 1: dog didn't have a diary. Oh god, come on, Buster,
Speaker 1: we're starting off here on Inside the Jets. Our player
Speaker 1: guest segment is presented by m T Bank Official Community
Speaker 1: pack of your New York Jets. Buster, Can you believe it? Uh?
Speaker 1: Five and ten? One game to go? The season goes fast,
Speaker 1: doesn't it. Yeah, the season definitely went by fast. But
Speaker 1: I can tell you even though we are five and ten,
Speaker 1: I enjoyed the season and building with the teams. What
Speaker 1: about this season you just talked about it not the
Speaker 1: results that you wanted, But what about this season did
Speaker 1: you enjoy? And from your perspective, what's your favorite memory
Speaker 1: from the season, whether it be on game day or
Speaker 1: something behind the scenes. I think my favorite memory from
Speaker 1: this year would be just guys dancing in practice, always
Speaker 1: having fun, just being out there as a team. Um.
Speaker 1: I forgot the rest of the question, but just what
Speaker 1: what made this year different? Because you talked about in
Speaker 1: five and gen but it seems to me that you're
Speaker 1: having fun. The defense is having fun, You're sticking together.
Speaker 1: What about this team about this season is different from
Speaker 1: let's say, in years past, Well, this year, I can
Speaker 1: tell everybody wants, you know, to prove themselves. We've got
Speaker 1: a younger team. Guys want to prove themselves, and we actually,
Speaker 1: you know, have fun as a team trying to win
Speaker 1: these games and get with five and ten. But every
Speaker 1: single game we've been in has been a competitive game.
Speaker 1: It's been right there and there to the fourth quarter.
Speaker 1: And so you know, once we figure out how to
Speaker 1: win in the fourth quarter, we're gonna be, you know,
Speaker 1: a great team inside. The Jets is supported by selective
Speaker 1: Insurance responses Everything Eric Ethan Greenberg and Jetts cornerback buster
Speaker 1: screen here at Vanderbilt Sports and Spirits inside the Windham
Speaker 1: Hamilton's Park Buster. What's been different about your game your
Speaker 1: third season with the Jets. I think this is your bust. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think it's my best season too. Uh. I was
Speaker 1: like to get a lot of credits, and my coaches
Speaker 1: or danar Wilson's taught me a lot since he's been here.
Speaker 1: I've been able to play faster, more instinct through uh
Speaker 1: and I have to think before the place. So a
Speaker 1: lot of times I line up, I already know what's
Speaker 1: gonna come, So I give him a lot of credit
Speaker 1: for the way I've been playing. Lady, what about coach
Speaker 1: Wilson do you like in particular? And something that you
Speaker 1: mentioned last week is this season you're even reading the
Speaker 1: keys from the offensive lineman. What is the difference in
Speaker 1: your preparation from this year to let's say last year
Speaker 1: the year before that. One thing about coach Wilson, He's
Speaker 1: gonna stand on you regardless how well you're playing, how
Speaker 1: bad you're playing. He didn't care. He's gonna stay on you.
Speaker 1: And Uh, I can tell he competes with his self
Speaker 1: and with the coaches amongst them, who's going to get
Speaker 1: there first in the morning. Little things like that, It
Speaker 1: it trickles down on your secondary So just his his work,
Speaker 1: habits and things like that have helped us out in
Speaker 1: the room. Buster. You know what Morris Clayborner told me said, Uh,
Speaker 1: Coach Wilson, coach d than nerd Wilson, it's all about
Speaker 1: tough love with him. It was definitely tough love going there.
Speaker 1: You make a bad play, you have to take the
Speaker 1: constructors criticism because at the end of that he is
Speaker 1: right and he's gonna get his point across. So I
Speaker 1: think that's all in the room. We might get in
Speaker 1: our feelings sometimes when he gets on this, but it's
Speaker 1: all productive criticism. What have you've been able to read
Speaker 1: differently and diagnose differently at this point in your career
Speaker 1: than maybe you struggle with earlier. I would say offensive
Speaker 1: alignment because in our defense and Nichols kind of like
Speaker 1: a corner and you you can tell the offense is
Speaker 1: gonna pass or run the ball just by looking at
Speaker 1: the tackle. Tackles down in the ground hard, then it's
Speaker 1: gonna be a run. If he's light, then it's gonna
Speaker 1: be a pass. So just seeing that one thing that
Speaker 1: helps me out a lot, just knowing what to expect.
Speaker 1: You know, it's often in the NFL that we talked
Speaker 1: about perfecting your craft, and I've noticed that practice. I'm
Speaker 1: out there, you know, thirty minutes every day while stretches
Speaker 1: going on in special teams, and you coach Lennard Wilson
Speaker 1: and Morris Clayborne are always off the side working on something.
Speaker 1: What are you working on? And how meticulous and how
Speaker 1: much of a perfectionist are you? Three? Well, because d
Speaker 1: always pulls us to the side, and we always working technique.
Speaker 1: I mean that's first. You can be as athletic as
Speaker 1: you want to be, but we always go over technique
Speaker 1: and then we'll go over tennesseees from the receivers in
Speaker 1: the game. So just hearing those things all throughout the week,
Speaker 1: once we get in the game, we know what to
Speaker 1: expect and we remember those technique steps once we get
Speaker 1: in the game. I think you have one of the
Speaker 1: most difficult positions on the Jets because in base you're
Speaker 1: playing outside the numbers, but all of a sudden, sub
Speaker 1: packages when you guys are lowing up the fronts of
Speaker 1: backs on the field, there you are switching on the inside. Um. Now,
Speaker 1: I know it's become familiar with you later in your career,
Speaker 1: but just how difficult is that to do. It's definitely different.
Speaker 1: When you're playing nickel, you got quicker passes and they
Speaker 1: usually go after the nickel on third down, so the
Speaker 1: nickel's not holding up the defense will not get off
Speaker 1: the field. And when I'm playing corner, it's a bigger receiver.
Speaker 1: You've got more time to react to the ball. I
Speaker 1: think playing corner is easier because you can get you
Speaker 1: can get your hands on the guy right in the line,
Speaker 1: right right, you can get your hands there. It takes
Speaker 1: long for the ball get out there. And when you're
Speaker 1: a nickel, if you don't re run, and when the
Speaker 1: pulling guards get to you before you re run, you
Speaker 1: get smashed. So it's two different worlds, but I enjoy
Speaker 1: playing book. What's the biggest challenge of playing nickel That
Speaker 1: maybe when you're watching TV you don't really see when
Speaker 1: you play nickel, you have to have good eyes because
Speaker 1: those are were the quicker receivers are it. So if
Speaker 1: you lose your eyes, if you look back at the
Speaker 1: quarterback and not have your eyes on the receiver, that's
Speaker 1: when either you're gonna get a penalty or they're gonna
Speaker 1: get away and be a quick catch in the first down.
Speaker 1: So when you're playing nickel, your eyes have to be
Speaker 1: really well. How frustrating is that for you? And frustrating
Speaker 1: it might not be the right word here, uh inside
Speaker 1: the Jets, but when you're in that nickel position, when
Speaker 1: you're lined up inside and the receiver automatically has space
Speaker 1: before it releases it, it is what it is. It
Speaker 1: comes with the position, So you've gotta have good feet
Speaker 1: because when you're on the corner, when you had corner,
Speaker 1: most of time receivers on the line when nickel receivers
Speaker 1: back off the line. So I feel like when you
Speaker 1: play nickel, you have to have the best feet in
Speaker 1: the second day, and then just talking about this past
Speaker 1: week in particular, usually the nickel receiver is, like you said,
Speaker 1: a quick twitched guy, a little shorter. But sometimes this
Speaker 1: past weekend, Mike Williams, who's six threes lining up in
Speaker 1: the slot. How different of an experience is it going
Speaker 1: up against someone that has a couple inches on you.
Speaker 1: When I go against a big receiver, I know one
Speaker 1: of the things they're gonna do is trying to jump
Speaker 1: ball with through it like a favor route. But I
Speaker 1: honestly like guarding big receivers because you can get your
Speaker 1: hands on they're not very quick. You can now quick them,
Speaker 1: you know where they're gonna go. They don't have a
Speaker 1: couple of routes, whereas if you're guarding somebody that's smaller,
Speaker 1: he can run the whole route. Street. Who's the most
Speaker 1: difficult slot receiver you've ever faced? Is that I don't
Speaker 1: want I'm gonna a curse I'm not giving anybody any credit.
Speaker 1: Good answer from buster screen here tonight. Um, but the Patriots,
Speaker 1: how deep are you into film study at this point
Speaker 1: early in a week. It's just Tuesday. It is Tuesday.
Speaker 1: I've already watched film. What are you saying the Patriots?
Speaker 1: What they do is they wait till you mess up.
Speaker 1: So you have to go into the game super disciplined,
Speaker 1: like they were in their same place, just thinking dump
Speaker 1: all the way down the field. And then when you
Speaker 1: lose your eyes or you have a technique air or
Speaker 1: you just have that one second of a lack of focus,
Speaker 1: that's when they hit you with like a screen or
Speaker 1: a trick play or something like that that gets to you.
Speaker 1: So when you play the Patriots, you have to be disciplined.
Speaker 1: Everybody knows the Patriots. They have a great quarterback and
Speaker 1: he makes everybody else around them good. So you have
Speaker 1: to play two Tom Burties level two, you know, to
Speaker 1: Tom Brady's level of focus in order to beat them.
Speaker 1: So without Julian Edelman this year, what have they been
Speaker 1: doing inside? They still run the quick routes. One thing
Speaker 1: about the Petris you can't really bliss them because they
Speaker 1: get the ball out so quick, so you're gonna blitz
Speaker 1: somebody in the he's gonna dump into the slot. So
Speaker 1: Petrires are just doing what they do. They got some
Speaker 1: different pieces, they got some guys that can take the
Speaker 1: top off of defense, but they're sticking to what they do.
Speaker 1: What can you take out of the first match up
Speaker 1: between these two teams in Week six, because the Jets
Speaker 1: defense was extremely successful against Tom Brady, he only completed
Speaker 1: of his passage, which is his second lowest output of
Speaker 1: the season. Yeah, you're not of a game yourself. I
Speaker 1: did play well the two takeaways buster screen that first.
Speaker 1: But when you play the Patriots, we have a good
Speaker 1: team and I feel like, man for a man, like
Speaker 1: our team, we match you up away with them. So,
Speaker 1: like I said, it's all about the focus. Like one
Speaker 1: thing we struggled with this year is winning in the
Speaker 1: fourth quarter. So once this team figures out how to
Speaker 1: win in the fourth quarter, like, the sky's the limit.
Speaker 1: So we have a young team. I feel like we
Speaker 1: have a young, confident team. Everybody believes in the system.
Speaker 1: So we want to go out with the band with
Speaker 1: the pat How about you guys defensively, how are you
Speaker 1: sticking together as a team because nobody's pointing a finger
Speaker 1: after that game against the Chargers. Maybe a less mature
Speaker 1: team would say, hey, defensively, we did our job. Offensively,
Speaker 1: you guys didn't do your job, but instead you guys
Speaker 1: were pointing the fingers at yourselves and saying, hey, maybe
Speaker 1: we gotta come up with the three takeaways we did
Speaker 1: against the New Orleans Saints to help our team win.
Speaker 1: I feel like this year, our locker rooms like a brotherhood,
Speaker 1: so offense and defense we both get along. Sometimes defense
Speaker 1: might not play with an offense plays with. Sometimes the
Speaker 1: defense or the offense might play well and defense might
Speaker 1: play well. But at the end of the day, we're
Speaker 1: all the team. Like we all have our families and
Speaker 1: things like that off the field, but inside that locker
Speaker 1: room is the true families, true family field. We all
Speaker 1: want to support our coach and things like that, so
Speaker 1: we don't we don't ever point fingers. This Sunday, you
Speaker 1: have an opportunity to kind of play spoiler against the Patriots.
Speaker 1: They're still playing for the number one seed this past week.
Speaker 1: Can playing for spoiler for the Chargers? Do you guys
Speaker 1: think about that or at this point it's just we're
Speaker 1: gonna go out there. We're gonna play for the names
Speaker 1: on the front and the back and just have fun
Speaker 1: to close out, We're just going out there playing for
Speaker 1: our sales. Really, like our coach just keep saying we
Speaker 1: have to play a full game. Now, I keep saying that,
Speaker 1: but we wouldn't go out there and play four full
Speaker 1: quarters of focus Like that's like the number one thing
Speaker 1: is just focus the whole game. And yet we have
Speaker 1: a younger team. But if we can sit there and
Speaker 1: focus the whole game, I know we have something. Space.
Speaker 1: You can get into the queue here because we're gonna
Speaker 1: be taking some calls on insaide the Juste ESPN, Eric
Speaker 1: ellen Ethan Greenberg and just cornerback buster screen here a
Speaker 1: Vanderbilts sports and spirits. Um, what's different defensively because what
Speaker 1: pops out at me and I'm in the press box
Speaker 1: each and every game between two thousand and seventeen and
Speaker 1: two thousand and sixteen buster as, I think that there's
Speaker 1: more energy and also the speed difference is so noticeable. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we have a lot of packages where there's multiple dbs
Speaker 1: on the field, not not dying, but I don't even
Speaker 1: know what you call it. After dime. But we call
Speaker 1: the speed package. So is that seven dbs. It's seven dbs,
Speaker 1: so and then and then and then includes four safety
Speaker 1: sometimes yeah, seven dbs. You got. I can't even do
Speaker 1: the raft two d linemen, two linebackers. So we do
Speaker 1: have the speed packages with Bliss a lot. I think
Speaker 1: everybody in our secondary has a sack this year. What's
Speaker 1: different from most teams, but we are playing a lot faster,
Speaker 1: a lot of our new talent r dbs, So we've
Speaker 1: used that type. And what does that then allow you
Speaker 1: to do? With all the speed on the field. It
Speaker 1: confuses quarterbacks because he sees so many dbs, he don't
Speaker 1: know who's dropping into cover. So we can get there
Speaker 1: just a little bit quicker than whether d line nor
Speaker 1: a linebacker. Justin merce is playing time is picked up
Speaker 1: of late because when you guys have gone to sub packages,
Speaker 1: you be moving inside. He's been going outside the numbers.
Speaker 1: How is he coming along? I think Justin is doing
Speaker 1: a great job. I think the last four games he's
Speaker 1: only allowed to catchers or something crazy like that, so
Speaker 1: he's doing a great job. I always thought Justin was
Speaker 1: a good player. I mean there was a time in
Speaker 1: the season where you know Darryl Robins got to play
Speaker 1: a little bit more than him. But just coming there
Speaker 1: and come back strong was just good to see, just
Speaker 1: because you know he's a confident guy. What do you
Speaker 1: see from him? What's the biggest difference from his rookie
Speaker 1: year to his second year. He's smarter. I can say
Speaker 1: the whole secondary is a whole is smarter just because
Speaker 1: our coach. He he does a lot of the heart,
Speaker 1: like a lot of the dirty work of film study
Speaker 1: and founding out tendencies and things like that. Thenard already
Speaker 1: has it. You guys really enjoyed playing for him. Did
Speaker 1: you know too much about Thenard before he came over
Speaker 1: from As I knew he had a good secondary, But
Speaker 1: I said, maybe it's just the players is the reason
Speaker 1: why the secondary is so good. But him as a coach,
Speaker 1: a good coach. I think it'd be a head coach
Speaker 1: one day. I give him a lot of credit. You
Speaker 1: get on my nerves sometimes because it's the tough love
Speaker 1: that's gone. I respect him. I respect him a lot.
Speaker 1: Oh why have you and Morris Clayborne got along so well?
Speaker 1: You guys are the two older members of that secondary
Speaker 1: at I would say me and him get along, both
Speaker 1: from them South and we both laid by that type
Speaker 1: of dude, the opposite of a Jamal. But we just
Speaker 1: we just get along. We sit together every day. I mean,
Speaker 1: we both got families, We got a lot that's in common.
Speaker 1: Morris seems to have a different switch when you talk
Speaker 1: to him. Nice guy, like you said, kind of laid back,
Speaker 1: but you see it in his eyes when it's game time,
Speaker 1: he just goes to a different level. I think it's
Speaker 1: the ls SI Jamal. Jamal already an energect person, but
Speaker 1: then when the game comes is like energizes the bunny.
Speaker 1: And then with with Mo, I'll say one thing to him,
Speaker 1: I say best dvs in the league, and that's it.
Speaker 1: I'll just leave it there because he's so focused. So
Speaker 1: I like playing with them guys. They got good energy
Speaker 1: them too, and maybe everybody that's so. So, what what
Speaker 1: has impressed you most about Jamal Adams to Jets first
Speaker 1: round pick of two thousand seventeen, and then Marcus May
Speaker 1: the Jets second round pick of two thousand seventeen. The
Speaker 1: thing I would say is impressed me most. They both
Speaker 1: came in like vess, both of those guys came in.
Speaker 1: They didn't miss a beat. And one thing about Ricky's
Speaker 1: when they when a Rickie goes on the field, he
Speaker 1: messes up, he continues to miss up. Them guys mess up,
Speaker 1: they get back up and then make a big play.
Speaker 1: So I respect that a lot about the New Jack City,
Speaker 1: that's what the secondary has coined itself. And Thenard came
Speaker 1: up with that. He did. I asked you that in
Speaker 1: training camp. But I want to know what does New
Speaker 1: Jack City mean to you? How does the player? How
Speaker 1: do the players embody what it's supposed to mean? It
Speaker 1: just means with the baddest people on the field. I mean,
Speaker 1: is it goes deeper in that? But we're gonna keep
Speaker 1: that in the room. But the coach always says like
Speaker 1: y'all go out there and be the baddest boys on
Speaker 1: the field. But different terminology. Okay, okay, no doubt. We
Speaker 1: are alive on ESPN Radio and also streaming on New
Speaker 1: York dot Com and Facebook, so Buster screen using discretion
Speaker 1: there and we really appreciate that. Uh but plus, how
Speaker 1: about those guys though, the way they both play the run?
Speaker 1: I know that was the Scotty report on Jamal when
Speaker 1: he came out of Lacio. He can play very well
Speaker 1: inside the box, but he takes pride as far as
Speaker 1: what he does in the backfield as well. But Marcus May, Wow,
Speaker 1: he can come in there. He can lay some people
Speaker 1: on himself. Well, Jamal is to play our defense. We're
Speaker 1: a gap defense, so everybody has their own gap. So
Speaker 1: a lot of times if somebody does jump out there gap,
Speaker 1: Jamal will save them and make it a perfect tackle.
Speaker 1: But may I give may the crown on tackling this
Speaker 1: year because we put them in a lot of bad
Speaker 1: positions where he's had to make them one on one
Speaker 1: tackle and for a rookie, that's very hard to do.
Speaker 1: But he is a natural born tackling. Do you think
Speaker 1: he's the best open field tackler on the New York
Speaker 1: Jets besides me? Besides by the screen, I like that
Speaker 1: bus um Patriots this week. But I want to talk
Speaker 1: about offseason, not because you're looking ahead, but I thought
Speaker 1: the listeners might enjoy hearing this about you. You are
Speaker 1: a diverse guy who has a lot of interest, and
Speaker 1: this offseason you started teaching the classes. Basically you became
Speaker 1: a workout instructor. Tell us about that. Yeah, I did
Speaker 1: become a workout instructor um. It all goes back to
Speaker 1: the charity Screenway that's the new name for it. But
Speaker 1: I started those workouts because most of the time when
Speaker 1: people have charity events and things like that, they just
Speaker 1: have a big event ask for donations. So I wanted
Speaker 1: to give back to people by giving them a workout.
Speaker 1: We have these lifestyle experience type parties, so that was
Speaker 1: really my way of showing the people, Hey, I want
Speaker 1: to give you something back for donating and I enjoy
Speaker 1: doing it. So that's why where can where can people
Speaker 1: go online to let's say, go to one of your
Speaker 1: classes or one of your events, Because if you follow
Speaker 1: bus or on Instagram, you see it throughout the season,
Speaker 1: whether it's Thanksgiving, Halloween, or just the normal Tuesday and
Speaker 1: whatever month of the season, he's always doing something. So
Speaker 1: any social media Screenway or you can just go to
Speaker 1: screenway dot com and you can see upcoming events and
Speaker 1: the type of work that we've done throughout the year.
Speaker 1: But I can say the city of New York has
Speaker 1: showed a lot of support. Recently, we donated two and
Speaker 1: thirty seven bikes to East Harlem. We gave over five
Speaker 1: hundred meals and Thanksgiving. It's been a true blessing just
Speaker 1: how people have have came in such a short notice
Speaker 1: off screenway being built just two years ago. It's just
Speaker 1: made How good does that make you feel that you're
Speaker 1: using your platform now busters to help others in need?
Speaker 1: It makes me feel good. I always told people I
Speaker 1: always want to get a big contract, just blessing a
Speaker 1: big contract. But after that, I wanted to figure out
Speaker 1: what my purpose was, and I feel like my purpose
Speaker 1: is to help people. What's your favorite event that you do?
Speaker 1: Favorite event? I would say the workouts. I started these
Speaker 1: lifestyle experiences lately, which is kind of like a party.
Speaker 1: But I like working out, all right, So tell us
Speaker 1: about the workouts. You took me through one workout, you
Speaker 1: can look that up New York. Just stuck out a
Speaker 1: bunch of screen Eric Ellen. If you want to, you
Speaker 1: can do a Google searcher. Just go to the site.
Speaker 1: But what is the workout all about. It's a high
Speaker 1: intense interval train type of workout, and we kind of
Speaker 1: make some football moves in just to make it fun.
Speaker 1: But you're come in there. Your workout for twenty seven
Speaker 1: to thirty two minutes, high intense workout. You can go
Speaker 1: with your own speed, and I guarantee you lose at
Speaker 1: least five hundred calories. How did I How did he do?
Speaker 1: He did? He did a great job. I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: lie well. Expectations though, when he told you, Hey, I'm
Speaker 1: coming in, we're doing the head workout, you put me
Speaker 1: through the ringer. I did left a little bit before
Speaker 1: is a but if we got there a little bit
Speaker 1: early because we just set up the camera equipment, so
Speaker 1: it might have been a little stiff before before. He
Speaker 1: has a fig guy, and I did a couple of
Speaker 1: drills on the field with him before I knew he
Speaker 1: was that. Let me tell you that's another video you
Speaker 1: have to look up on New York dot Com. I've
Speaker 1: seen that video. People do not have enough respect for
Speaker 1: NFL players because I went out there on the field
Speaker 1: with Buster and I thought, okay, well he's gonna take
Speaker 1: it easy on me. And oh my god, he played
Speaker 1: receiver and I he took one step and I want
Speaker 1: ten yards that way, and he went that way. It
Speaker 1: was just unbelievable. I did my eyes I thought my
Speaker 1: eyesight was good, but he took a step. I was there,
Speaker 1: he was there and so long story short, you did
Speaker 1: better in the hit workout than you did on the
Speaker 1: field against Buster. Yes, yes, Buster again, I'll tell you
Speaker 1: who is the pound for pound champion inside the Jets
Speaker 1: weight room Busters screen. That's right. And and just for
Speaker 1: the record, Steve McClendon verified that on Facebook Live when
Speaker 1: I did something with him. So now we have multiple
Speaker 1: people saying that Busters pound for pound of strongs. Do
Speaker 1: you ever? Do you ever max out at any point
Speaker 1: during off season anymore? I have not maxed out in
Speaker 1: a while, but when I was in college I had it.
Speaker 1: Really Tennessee, Chattooga, Tennessee, Canne. Austral coasts lift so much weight, Yeah,
Speaker 1: so much weight. I feel like I will never be
Speaker 1: weak ever again. And at that point you were weighing
Speaker 1: in eight maybe came into college a hundred forty hundred
Speaker 1: forty eight pounds And how much we be thrown up
Speaker 1: on the punch at the combine or just max? No,
Speaker 1: but Max four oh five four oh, five hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty pounder, not when I when I was one eight? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I got one four oh? And how about Max squat
Speaker 1: five something? I can't remember five something. It's something crazy,
Speaker 1: but the most important deal. It's squatting, right, because everybody
Speaker 1: gets caught up in the gym about the bench. It's
Speaker 1: about the legs. It is about the leg But nowadays
Speaker 1: I do a lot of stuff that's just more apply
Speaker 1: metric and control, just because you gotta have those catlit
Speaker 1: reflexs to play corner. So that's something you can check
Speaker 1: out Screenway screenway dot com. Yeah, because you'll be doing
Speaker 1: that in the off season in New York City. And
Speaker 1: you're a guy who really obviously grew up in South
Speaker 1: Play with the Browns for a few years. You really
Speaker 1: enjoy this area, don't you. I do. I do. I
Speaker 1: enjoyed a lot. The city showed me a lot of
Speaker 1: love since I've been here. So I would like to
Speaker 1: continue to be what's next for the New York Jots
Speaker 1: after after Sunday obviously gonna tried to get that victory
Speaker 1: pull off an up side of the Patriots, and you
Speaker 1: think you're being that ball game late, but what's next?
Speaker 1: You think what's next is just to attack the off season.
Speaker 1: I mean, I know a lot of guys know we
Speaker 1: could have been a lot better than what we were
Speaker 1: this year. But I know we have a lot of
Speaker 1: hungry guys, a lot of hungry coaches. We got a
Speaker 1: lot to prove. So just going to the off season,
Speaker 1: we're gonna tach eat and have a better off season
Speaker 1: than last year. Buster Screen, thank you so much for
Speaker 1: joining us here on Inside the Jets and will come
Speaker 1: right back eight nine one nine ESPN and will take
Speaker 1: some of your calls. Welcome back to Inside the Jets.
Speaker 1: Eric youlln Ethan Greenberg here at Vanderbilt Sports and Spirits
Speaker 1: inside the Windham Hamilton's Park Hotel. Nice spot there with
Speaker 1: Buster Screen. Green's um. I talked to Todd Bowls about
Speaker 1: it last week before the Chargers game, and he said
Speaker 1: he's been one of our better players over the past
Speaker 1: three or four weeks. I mean, you look at his
Speaker 1: stats from weeks twelve to fifteen, twelve tackles, five pass defenses,
Speaker 1: a forced fumble which he then recovered down in New
Speaker 1: Orleans and no penalties. Really a stretch that Buster played
Speaker 1: his best football at two thousands seventeen. Yeah, and I
Speaker 1: think it's been his best stretch of football as a
Speaker 1: New York Jet. He's in his third year here with
Speaker 1: the Jets. We're gonna be taking some calls here on
Speaker 1: Inside the Jets one nine one nine E s p
Speaker 1: N U Um. Let's go to Ray right now, Ray, Yes,
Speaker 1: you're on the line. Oh Ray, Ray dropped off? Okay,
Speaker 1: so so nine ESPN. When I look back to the
Speaker 1: Jets last game against the Chargers, bilaal Pole stands out
Speaker 1: a hundred forty five yards on the ground for Paul
Speaker 1: and now he's got a season career high in terms
Speaker 1: of rush yards and touchdowns. And he also has become
Speaker 1: the first back in New York Jets history with three
Speaker 1: carries of at least fifty yards greens and this past weekend,
Speaker 1: he did so because of a fifty seven yard touchdown
Speaker 1: run that got the Jets on the board, which I
Speaker 1: have to say, my favorite part about the whole run one.
Speaker 1: I love the play design with an outside toss after
Speaker 1: Joe Joe Natson comes across a little decoy there. How
Speaker 1: about Jonathan Harrison running down the sideline, paving the way
Speaker 1: for Powell and then he takes out two guys to
Speaker 1: try to tackle Powell from behind him. Listen, how about
Speaker 1: the whole offensive line what they did against the Charges
Speaker 1: because the Jets depth was tested. Jonathan Harrison starting in
Speaker 1: place of Wesley Johnson at right guard, you had the
Speaker 1: code the CODEA does you're filling in for Brian Winners
Speaker 1: and then finally right tackle, you're brand quality filling in
Speaker 1: for Brandon Show. And the Jets did a nice job
Speaker 1: on Sunday controlling the line of scrimmage. They did that
Speaker 1: against the New Orleans Saints and know of an opportunity
Speaker 1: to do that again this week against the New England defense,
Speaker 1: who plays a bend but don't break philosophy, meaning they
Speaker 1: give up a lot of yards, they don't tend to
Speaker 1: give up a lot of points. The Patriots defense is
Speaker 1: seventh in the league and scoring, but their twenty nine
Speaker 1: overall they average. They allow four point eight yards to
Speaker 1: carry on the ground, and just looking at the Jets
Speaker 1: rushing game over the past two weeks, they're averaging a
Speaker 1: hundred sixty yards and five and a half yards per carry.
Speaker 1: So really between blow Powell, I know he's been the
Speaker 1: main guy the past couple of weeks, but when you
Speaker 1: factor in Matt Workta and Elijah McGuire, they're all doing
Speaker 1: very well in the backfield in this short amount of time.
Speaker 1: And they'll have another opportunity this weekend because the Patriots
Speaker 1: rush defense. It's not all that Robby Anderson is sixty
Speaker 1: one yard shy of a thousand. Who would have thought
Speaker 1: that coming into the two thousand seventeen season. He's really
Speaker 1: blossomed into a complete receiver. He's one of the guys
Speaker 1: that last season we were pointing to because he was undrafted.
Speaker 1: He made the team. You're giving it props. He played
Speaker 1: well throughout the regular season, and then this season he
Speaker 1: really took it up a notch, especially when you factor
Speaker 1: in the loss of Quincy and Nanue in training camp,
Speaker 1: during the Green and White scrimmage and then no one
Speaker 1: really I think externally. The narrative was the wide receiving
Speaker 1: corps would be the weak link of the offense, and
Speaker 1: and turned it turned out to be one of the strengths.
Speaker 1: When the Jets traded for Jermaine Cursey came in. He's
Speaker 1: had a career year, as has Robby Anderson. Jermaine Curse
Speaker 1: sixty catches seven fifty one yards. He's got five receiving touched.
Speaker 1: The other thing to think of his hey, Quincy and
Speaker 1: Nona gets healthy after the surgery to the neck, and
Speaker 1: he's in good shape. He comes back. Jan Hansen has
Speaker 1: been flashing. You've got Urt Darius Stewart here. Uh. This
Speaker 1: Jets receiving unit has a lot of potential and they're young.
Speaker 1: It's if you're a Jets fan, I think you have
Speaker 1: to be encouraged from what you've seen from this group.
Speaker 1: And then you factor in the three running backs that
Speaker 1: we just mentioned. They're all options out of the backfield too,
Speaker 1: and they're kind of a safety blanket for Bryce Patty
Speaker 1: and before that, Josh McCown. And then you look at
Speaker 1: Austin Safari and Jenkins who has a career high in
Speaker 1: receptions this season, and he's been one of the offseason
Speaker 1: top stories I'd say because he was down thirty pounds.
Speaker 1: He revamped his life the way he goes about his
Speaker 1: business and you could see it on early. I know
Speaker 1: his production has kind of waned over the past couple
Speaker 1: of weeks, but he attacks every day like it's his
Speaker 1: last and he's so happy to be a part of
Speaker 1: this organization. And you can really tell whenever you speak
Speaker 1: to him. One nine ESPN, let's try to four lines
Speaker 1: one more time. Is Donald from New Jersey? Donald? How
Speaker 1: are you? Yeah? How are you guys doing great? Yeah? Listen,
Speaker 1: I'm just cooling because I know you've talked about it
Speaker 1: at some point. I don't know about tonight. You know,
Speaker 1: all this uh non definitive. Nobody's been definitive about getting
Speaker 1: Bowls back next year. And I definitely think he should
Speaker 1: be back, you know, given the fact, Uh all you
Speaker 1: had to do is watch Petty throw the boy yesterday. Um,
Speaker 1: but I was wondering if you had heard anything one
Speaker 1: way or another, or or what you guys since was
Speaker 1: her opinion was, Yeah, thanks for we called Donald. I'll
Speaker 1: just say here is that the Jets are gonna play
Speaker 1: out the season here. They're gonna finish up the regular
Speaker 1: season against the Patriots, and then you can anticipate you're
Speaker 1: gonna hear from Jet's ownership within the next week or two,
Speaker 1: like it happens every year greens around here. You know,
Speaker 1: Christopher Johnson, the acting order of the New York Jets,
Speaker 1: and Todd Bowles is not one to talk about his job.
Speaker 1: And I think that's very clear if you ever tune
Speaker 1: into a press conference, because whatever question comes regarding his future,
Speaker 1: he said, you know what, I'm not here to talk
Speaker 1: about my job. I'm here to coach football. Yeah. Well,
Speaker 1: and the other thing is he's got to prepare his
Speaker 1: guys to play on Sunday. But with that being said, Donald,
Speaker 1: I would agree with you that I think Todd Bowles
Speaker 1: has had a very good year coaching because when you
Speaker 1: look at this team. Boba Shusan touched on this on
Speaker 1: the Michael K Show prior to Inside the Jets here
Speaker 1: two thousand and fifteen. The Jets won ten games in
Speaker 1: Todd Bowls first season in two thousand and sixteen. They
Speaker 1: did not blow it up, per se. They went for
Speaker 1: it again with the veterans. Okay, then players started getting injured,
Speaker 1: you started losing ball games. Then you make a total
Speaker 1: transformation the roster. It begins in the off season after
Speaker 1: two thousand and sixteen, when you go five and eleven,
Speaker 1: and we've seen a lot up bright spots here this year.
Speaker 1: I think Top Bowls has done a lot of good
Speaker 1: things in two thousand seventeen. We will hear from Christopher
Speaker 1: Johnson in the next week or two. Moving on, let's
Speaker 1: go to Ryan in Bayville. Ryan, you're on there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was just want to I'm pretty you know, I'm
Speaker 1: happy with the direction we're going, and I think that,
Speaker 1: you know, Bowls has done a pretty good job building
Speaker 1: the team and Macagne building the team, which a lot
Speaker 1: of youth speed getting better. I think we have to
Speaker 1: take the leap of faith kind of like the Eagles did,
Speaker 1: and hope we get it right with the QB because
Speaker 1: I feel we get to QB, I think we're right
Speaker 1: there and we could take over the division. All right, Ryan,
Speaker 1: thanks for your calling. Let's listen. I'll tell you what
Speaker 1: and that's what everybody's searching in the National Football League
Speaker 1: for is the long term answer at quarterback. We'll have
Speaker 1: to find out where the Jets are as far as
Speaker 1: draft order is concerned. Um, Josh McCown played very well
Speaker 1: for this team, starting thirteen games. Bryce Patty, He's had
Speaker 1: his ups and downs in his first two starts. Here,
Speaker 1: a lot of offseason decisions to be made for the
Speaker 1: organization moving forward. But yes, every team wants to have
Speaker 1: that long term answer quarterback. Greens and the Jets are
Speaker 1: no different. They're playing against the team in New England
Speaker 1: who's head the long term answer quarterback for close to
Speaker 1: twenty years now. Well, when you look at any free
Speaker 1: agent or draft opportunity that you have to draft anyone
Speaker 1: or sign anyone at a position, that you may want.
Speaker 1: Is that? So let's talk about quarterback here for a second.
Speaker 1: Is that your free agent options this season are I
Speaker 1: would say somewhat limited if you're talking about long term
Speaker 1: because the main guy that you think of his Kirk Cousins,
Speaker 1: he's in his late twenties. And then you look at
Speaker 1: maybe someone like Alex Smith, but he's thirty four years old.
Speaker 1: So then you look at the draft and how much
Speaker 1: First of all, let's say the Jets are eight or
Speaker 1: seventh in the We're gonna get into this in the
Speaker 1: final segment. That's a tease for you. I'll dive into
Speaker 1: it a little bit and then we'll touch on it
Speaker 1: in the final segment. But here's the thing is that
Speaker 1: if you have to trade up, how much of your
Speaker 1: future are you willing to mortgage to get up and
Speaker 1: get the guy that you think might be the future
Speaker 1: and the franchise quarterback that your team. Well, we're gonna
Speaker 1: discuss the draft here. There's a teaser for you. We'll
Speaker 1: discuss draft a little bit in our next segment, a
Speaker 1: little bit because I want to talk about where the
Speaker 1: Jets currently stand. I also want to talk about free
Speaker 1: agency a little bit. We got plenty to get to
Speaker 1: one hundred nine one nine. ESPN will be right back
Speaker 1: from Vanderbilt Sports and Spirits you're listening to Inside the Jets.
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Inside the Jets. Eric Gallen and Ethan
Speaker 1: Greenberg here at Vanderbilt Sports and Spirits inside the Windham
Speaker 1: Hamilton's Park. Players for two thousand eighteen Jets House have
Speaker 1: just been an ounce including Damorroo, Davis, Marcus May, Buster Scream,
Speaker 1: Mohabid Wilkerson, joint current players and Jets Legends on January
Speaker 1: at Spin New York, presented by Green Giant. Tickets are
Speaker 1: on sale now. For more information visit New York Just
Speaker 1: dot com. Slash at Jets House. By the way, Spin
Speaker 1: New York very cool, especially if you like to play
Speaker 1: ping pong. I participated in Jets House last year, did
Speaker 1: a number of q and as with some players with
Speaker 1: some legends, had a great time. Greens, Uh, what's your
Speaker 1: what's your ping pong game? Like? I think I'm solid?
Speaker 1: Have we played yet? We have not played yet, but
Speaker 1: it's gonna be an offseason priority. Okay, we will do that.
Speaker 1: And Chef Marcus at the Complex at the Atlantic Health
Speaker 1: Jets Training Center. He is an avid player in the
Speaker 1: off season. We love Marcus very much, but I'm gonna
Speaker 1: have to take everybody down and grab the belt. Green's
Speaker 1: Jets Patriots this week. Uh, we touched upon it before.
Speaker 1: Jets five and ten, just one and six on the
Speaker 1: road this year, they've been a different team at home. Uh,
Speaker 1: it'd be nice to go out with a good showing
Speaker 1: at Gillette Stadium against the team most people think is
Speaker 1: the a f C favorite to return to the Super Bowl. Well,
Speaker 1: I think you hit the nail right on the head
Speaker 1: and that you want to close out the season at
Speaker 1: least being competitive as actually against a division team, a
Speaker 1: very talented team, a team that is atop of the
Speaker 1: NFL in yards per game. I mean, the Patriots average
Speaker 1: about four hundred yards. Tom Brady, you know the story there,
Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski, Brandon Cooks. The Patriots have a very good offense,
Speaker 1: there's no doubt. And Dean Lewis just had a career
Speaker 1: game against the buff He's having a career year in general.
Speaker 1: I mean he's had he's had eight hundred plus yards
Speaker 1: on the ground. That's five hundred more than his second
Speaker 1: career hot right, and you met you Cooks him and Grandkowski.
Speaker 1: Gronkowski had an unbelievable one handed touchdown reception against the
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills. They both have a thousand yards receiving. Of course,
Speaker 1: Brady over four thousand yards passing. But Tom Hanson been
Speaker 1: so terrific lately, as you told me, five consecutive games
Speaker 1: with interceptions, so he has the first time since two
Speaker 1: thousand two that that's happened. So for the Jets to
Speaker 1: be in a position where they got a chance to
Speaker 1: make this a one position, one possession gamers, so they
Speaker 1: need a couple of takeaways. Right. But here's the thing,
Speaker 1: if you're a Jets fan and you looking for silver
Speaker 1: lining or a glimpse of hope or whatever you want
Speaker 1: to call it. In Week six, when the Patriots came
Speaker 1: here to Matlife Stadium, Tom Brady I said this before,
Speaker 1: only completed fifty three percent of his passes. That's the
Speaker 1: second lowest of the season for him. The first was
Speaker 1: Week one, he only completed of his passes. But the
Speaker 1: Jets secondary against the league's premier quarterbacks, has played very well.
Speaker 1: You look at Matt Ryan si Cam Newton thirty percent,
Speaker 1: that was the season low, and then just this past weekend,
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers only completed fifty of his passage, which is
Speaker 1: his second lowest of the season. However, these have all
Speaker 1: been at home. Well, you have to be very encouraged
Speaker 1: by the player of the Jets secondary this year and
Speaker 1: what buster screen talks about those young safeties. You have
Speaker 1: to be awfully excited about Marcus May and Jamal Adams
Speaker 1: patrolling that backfield for yours to come. Well, have to
Speaker 1: see what happens. Was Morris Clayborn. He played well in
Speaker 1: his first year. He's set to become a free agent.
Speaker 1: We'll have to see if the Jets re up. When
Speaker 1: we're not, Let's take a couple more calls here on
Speaker 1: inside the Jets and let's go to Huntington and we're
Speaker 1: eating is on the line. Hey, what's going on? My
Speaker 1: name is Atoms from Hinington. I want to say I
Speaker 1: think Lamar Jackson will end up being the best quarterback
Speaker 1: in this year's class. What do you think? Wow, thanks
Speaker 1: for the call of Dayton that that might be a
Speaker 1: hot take, because Lamar Jackson is one of those interesting
Speaker 1: prospects where well, for me personally, I think it's a
Speaker 1: little too early to evaluate someone like Lamar Jackson because
Speaker 1: remember they have to declare by January. He has to declare,
Speaker 1: and then what you're really looking at is the combine
Speaker 1: in February slash early March. Then you're looking at his
Speaker 1: pro day to see maybe Lamar Jackson wants to play
Speaker 1: something else. Maybe he was advised to play something like
Speaker 1: thank You. I don't think that's the possible. It might
Speaker 1: be a little too early to talk about Lamar Jackson.
Speaker 1: But he's a fantastic athlete. We know obviously kentuck it
Speaker 1: and Ron. He's got dynamic athletic ability. For me, the
Speaker 1: question about Lamar Jackson, whether he comes out this year
Speaker 1: next year, is what is his accuracy? You have to
Speaker 1: be an accurate quarterback in the National Football League. Let's
Speaker 1: keep on moving on and go to Andre in Jersey City,
Speaker 1: Dre Andre going once, I'm going, you're there, Andre? Okay, Hey,
Speaker 1: what's going on? Guys? What's up? I got a question?
Speaker 1: I got a question for you. Can you see the
Speaker 1: Jets um bypassing a quarterback in the first round and
Speaker 1: going with a running back instead, if they're able to
Speaker 1: get someone like Alex Smith of Kirk Cousins. Personally, if
Speaker 1: you're not from the running game, well, Andre. If you're
Speaker 1: signing someone like Kirk Cousins, thank you for the call.
Speaker 1: If you're signing someone like Kirk Cousins, then yeah, I
Speaker 1: could absolutely see the Jets trying to get a running
Speaker 1: back when you look at the prospects, I mean, the
Speaker 1: one that sticks out is se Kwon Barkley out of
Speaker 1: Penn State, and if he's available wherever the Jets are picking,
Speaker 1: I don't see how that couldn't be out of the
Speaker 1: equation Agan just because of his talent, and not to
Speaker 1: mention that in your hypothetical situation, the Jets already locked
Speaker 1: up what they believed to be an answer at quarterback
Speaker 1: at least for two thousand eights. You you really have
Speaker 1: to build through the draft, and the reason why the
Speaker 1: Jets haven't made the playoffs for seven consecutive years. If
Speaker 1: you go back and you go back to Vernon Colston
Speaker 1: two thousand and eight, Mark stus Has two thousand nine,
Speaker 1: Kyle Wilson two thousand ten, um Quentin Corpel's two thousand twelve,
Speaker 1: d Millnard two thousand thirteen, Calvin prior to two thousand fourteen,
Speaker 1: those are not draft picks of this regime. I want
Speaker 1: to say that right now. You can't charge Mike mccagnan
Speaker 1: and Todd Bowles with anything that happened before they got here.
Speaker 1: But you have to build through the draft. And what
Speaker 1: Mike mccagnan has done over the last three years is
Speaker 1: his first draft pick was Leonard Williams number six overall
Speaker 1: two thousand and fifteen. Most recently two thousand seventeen, Jamal
Speaker 1: Adams number six overall. And then a guy who I
Speaker 1: think has taken step in his second professional season, that's
Speaker 1: Darren Lee inside linebacker. Those are guys who are part
Speaker 1: of your foundation. So if you're a Jets fan, you
Speaker 1: can't look back and say, well, what about two thousand eight,
Speaker 1: what about two thou ten? No, you have to look
Speaker 1: at Mike mccagnan and Todd Bowls for the decisions they
Speaker 1: have made while they've been here, and frankly, Mike mccagnan
Speaker 1: has hit on a number of draft picks. We got
Speaker 1: a lot more to come, We got a lot more
Speaker 1: to get to, but we gotta catch your break. We'll
Speaker 1: be right back on Inside the Jets one one nine ESPN.
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Inside the Jets. Eric Allen and Ethan
Speaker 1: Greeber here Vanderbilt Sports and Spirits inside the Windham Hamilton's Park.
Speaker 1: Uh Fantasy Fan Duel Analysis brought to you by Fandel
Speaker 1: have all the fantasy that football has to offer? Be
Speaker 1: sports Rich. Do you have any fantasy pointers for this weekend? Well,
Speaker 1: if you're going by statistics, the Patriots defense is not
Speaker 1: very good twenty nine until total defense twenty nine against
Speaker 1: the past against the rush. So if you have Robby Anderson,
Speaker 1: maybe you turn to someone like him because he's sixty
Speaker 1: one yard shy of breaking a thousand yards, so maybe
Speaker 1: that's on his mind. And not only that, but the
Speaker 1: Jets are averaging a hundred sixty yards on the ground.
Speaker 1: But the problem right over the over the last two weeks,
Speaker 1: let's clarify that, because that would be a great number
Speaker 1: over six. I thought I clarified it before. Thank you
Speaker 1: for doing it for me again. But here's the thing.
Speaker 1: If you know who's gonna have the hot hand, you
Speaker 1: gotta go with him. It's just a question of who
Speaker 1: it's gonna be. And last week it was blow yeah,
Speaker 1: b Paul, Yeah, no doubt about it. You know what
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick likes to do to us, take away your
Speaker 1: best weapon. So uh, you know I wouldn't. I would
Speaker 1: anticipate the Patriots trying to load the box and forcing
Speaker 1: Bryce Petty to beat them. Bryce Petty, this means so
Speaker 1: much to him. You can see that in the postgame
Speaker 1: news conference after the Jets were able to only muster
Speaker 1: seven points against the Argers, and he just thought there
Speaker 1: were a number of throws that he left out there
Speaker 1: on the field. And he's a guy who's working, he's
Speaker 1: working his butt off to get this right and uh
Speaker 1: who have another opportunity to showcase his skills against the Patriots.
Speaker 1: The thing what I liked in what Todd Bowle said
Speaker 1: is that, look, it's only a second game starting. He
Speaker 1: has to work through these things. He didn't play the
Speaker 1: first fourteen weeks of the season and then he's thrown
Speaker 1: into the thick of it. So now that he has
Speaker 1: this experience, and remember this is a different offense than
Speaker 1: last season, so it's really his first game experience in
Speaker 1: John Morton's system in the regular season, so he does
Speaker 1: need to work out these kinks. And he said that
Speaker 1: he knows he's seen he's seen the field allows in
Speaker 1: the field well that everything that he talks about his
Speaker 1: footwork and when we hear that, We're like, well, what
Speaker 1: do you really mean by that? It's all timing. Playing quarterback.
Speaker 1: Being successful at this level, the National Football League level
Speaker 1: has is much to do with your feet than anything,
Speaker 1: and the timing of things. Your feet tell you where
Speaker 1: to go. You're here with the first progression, you're here
Speaker 1: with the second, you're here with the third. It's all
Speaker 1: a timing game, and right now Bryce has to get
Speaker 1: that down. The one play that really sticks out to
Speaker 1: me from Sunday's game in regards to timing is Austin
Speaker 1: Sufferi and Jenkins on a play action past starts. He
Speaker 1: he lines up next to Calvin Beacham. Then he comes
Speaker 1: out to the sideline and shoots up and Bryce Petty
Speaker 1: just missed him. He would have had at least probably
Speaker 1: a twenty yard Yeah, and then the fourth and seven
Speaker 1: chests are down fourteen and seven there late in the
Speaker 1: fourth quarters, still in the ball game, even though the
Speaker 1: offense really scuffled throughout that ball game, and Bryce Petty
Speaker 1: thought that he should have had a back shoulder touchdown
Speaker 1: to the eight four mentioned Robby Anderson. How about time
Speaker 1: we got time for a couple of quick calls here,
Speaker 1: Let's go to James and Elizabeth. James, how are you tonight? Hello, Hey, James,
Speaker 1: you're on Hey, thanks for taking my call. Um. The
Speaker 1: issue did I wanted to address has been on my
Speaker 1: heart season after season, and I'm calling this the curse
Speaker 1: of the offensive coordinator to Jets. The only time to
Speaker 1: Jets we're doing something right close to right is when
Speaker 1: we had Rex Ryan and Schottenheimer was the offensive coordinator
Speaker 1: a minute that day, let this guy go. San Sanchez
Speaker 1: was close to being respectable and then he completely fell apart,
Speaker 1: and every other quarterback after that was k cursed and doom. Okay,
Speaker 1: thanks for to called James James, Happy holidays. Listen, Uh,
Speaker 1: what I will tell you. What I will tell you
Speaker 1: about the Jets offensive coordinator is John Morton has had
Speaker 1: a fantastic season. He came in here with Josh McCown,
Speaker 1: a guy thirty eight years old, tenth NFL team, fifteenth year,
Speaker 1: and people weren't expected much. Frankly, passer twenty three touchdowns.
Speaker 1: Uh provided a great presence in the locker room. And
Speaker 1: I love the way that Morton spreads the ball around.
Speaker 1: He also doesn't go far away from the running game. UM,
Speaker 1: and what he's done with this personnel, guys like Robbie
Speaker 1: Anderson his development and Jermaine Curse coming in here nine
Speaker 1: days before the regular season and Austin Safari and Jenkins
Speaker 1: having a career high in terms of receptions and Blo
Speaker 1: Paal having a career here. John Morton was a good higher.
Speaker 1: I think the offense is in good hands and you've
Speaker 1: gotta have some personnel upgrades that's gonna happen in time.
Speaker 1: And also when you speak to everyone on the team,
Speaker 1: is the thing that sticks out is John Morton's system
Speaker 1: is extremely complex. The plays are sentences paragraphs long, so
Speaker 1: it'll take some time to fully implement the system. But
Speaker 1: you talked about it is Jermaine Curse comes here nine
Speaker 1: days before the Jets head up to Orchard Park and
Speaker 1: take on the Bills in Week one, and now he's
Speaker 1: having a career here, and I don't think a lot
Speaker 1: of fans expected that kind of production from him, from
Speaker 1: Robbie Anderson, et cetera. So I think that John Morton
Speaker 1: has been a good higher and then a great job
Speaker 1: this year. Well, we've had a heck of a time
Speaker 1: here tonight at Vanderbilt Sports and Spirits. Thanks everybody, for
Speaker 1: coming out and especially the bust of screen. Also Brittany
Speaker 1: and Justin, thank you so much on the production and
