0:01:13.080 --> 0:01:15.080
<v Speaker 1>I love the dog. I never really liked dollars before,

0:01:15.120 --> 0:01:17.360
<v Speaker 1>but I do love this little dog. And it's Grace.

0:01:18.920 --> 0:01:22.119
<v Speaker 1>She becoming attached to the dog in the short time

0:01:22.200 --> 0:01:25.039
<v Speaker 1>she's had. Yeah, she's definitely attached. She didn't play with

0:01:25.040 --> 0:01:26.640
<v Speaker 1>any of her toys. She played with the dog the

0:01:26.680 --> 0:01:29.160
<v Speaker 1>whole time, so that was a good part. But the

0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:32.920
<v Speaker 1>dog didn't have a diary. Oh god, come on, Buster,

0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:36.560
<v Speaker 1>we're starting off here on Inside the Jets. Our player

0:01:36.600 --> 0:01:39.360
<v Speaker 1>guest segment is presented by m T Bank Official Community

0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:44.560
<v Speaker 1>pack of your New York Jets. Buster, Can you believe it? Uh?

0:01:44.760 --> 0:01:48.240
<v Speaker 1>Five and ten? One game to go? The season goes fast,

0:01:48.280 --> 0:01:50.880
<v Speaker 1>doesn't it. Yeah, the season definitely went by fast. But

0:01:51.160 --> 0:01:53.360
<v Speaker 1>I can tell you even though we are five and ten,

0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:56.560
<v Speaker 1>I enjoyed the season and building with the teams. What

0:01:56.680 --> 0:02:00.200
<v Speaker 1>about this season you just talked about it not the

0:02:00.240 --> 0:02:02.520
<v Speaker 1>results that you wanted, But what about this season did

0:02:02.520 --> 0:02:06.200
<v Speaker 1>you enjoy? And from your perspective, what's your favorite memory

0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:08.040
<v Speaker 1>from the season, whether it be on game day or

0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:10.960
<v Speaker 1>something behind the scenes. I think my favorite memory from

0:02:10.960 --> 0:02:14.359
<v Speaker 1>this year would be just guys dancing in practice, always

0:02:14.400 --> 0:02:18.880
<v Speaker 1>having fun, just being out there as a team. Um.

0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:20.600
<v Speaker 1>I forgot the rest of the question, but just what

0:02:20.600 --> 0:02:22.680
<v Speaker 1>what made this year different? Because you talked about in

0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:24.639
<v Speaker 1>five and gen but it seems to me that you're

0:02:24.639 --> 0:02:26.800
<v Speaker 1>having fun. The defense is having fun, You're sticking together.

0:02:26.880 --> 0:02:29.840
<v Speaker 1>What about this team about this season is different from

0:02:29.880 --> 0:02:32.359
<v Speaker 1>let's say, in years past, Well, this year, I can

0:02:32.360 --> 0:02:34.840
<v Speaker 1>tell everybody wants, you know, to prove themselves. We've got

0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:37.600
<v Speaker 1>a younger team. Guys want to prove themselves, and we actually,

0:02:37.880 --> 0:02:39.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, have fun as a team trying to win

0:02:39.800 --> 0:02:42.920
<v Speaker 1>these games and get with five and ten. But every

0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:44.920
<v Speaker 1>single game we've been in has been a competitive game.

0:02:45.160 --> 0:02:46.960
<v Speaker 1>It's been right there and there to the fourth quarter.

0:02:46.960 --> 0:02:49.120
<v Speaker 1>And so you know, once we figure out how to

0:02:49.120 --> 0:02:50.720
<v Speaker 1>win in the fourth quarter, we're gonna be, you know,

0:02:50.960 --> 0:02:53.480
<v Speaker 1>a great team inside. The Jets is supported by selective

0:02:53.520 --> 0:02:57.880
<v Speaker 1>Insurance responses Everything Eric Ethan Greenberg and Jetts cornerback buster

0:02:58.040 --> 0:03:02.040
<v Speaker 1>screen here at Vanderbilt Sports and Spirits inside the Windham

0:03:02.080 --> 0:03:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Hamilton's Park Buster. What's been different about your game your

0:03:06.320 --> 0:03:10.519
<v Speaker 1>third season with the Jets. I think this is your bust. Yeah,

0:03:10.760 --> 0:03:13.160
<v Speaker 1>I think it's my best season too. Uh. I was

0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:14.800
<v Speaker 1>like to get a lot of credits, and my coaches

0:03:14.880 --> 0:03:17.200
<v Speaker 1>or danar Wilson's taught me a lot since he's been here.

0:03:17.440 --> 0:03:20.560
<v Speaker 1>I've been able to play faster, more instinct through uh

0:03:20.600 --> 0:03:22.160
<v Speaker 1>and I have to think before the place. So a

0:03:22.200 --> 0:03:23.799
<v Speaker 1>lot of times I line up, I already know what's

0:03:23.840 --> 0:03:25.400
<v Speaker 1>gonna come, So I give him a lot of credit

0:03:25.440 --> 0:03:27.760
<v Speaker 1>for the way I've been playing. Lady, what about coach

0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:30.880
<v Speaker 1>Wilson do you like in particular? And something that you

0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:33.880
<v Speaker 1>mentioned last week is this season you're even reading the

0:03:34.000 --> 0:03:36.440
<v Speaker 1>keys from the offensive lineman. What is the difference in

0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:39.680
<v Speaker 1>your preparation from this year to let's say last year

0:03:39.720 --> 0:03:42.400
<v Speaker 1>the year before that. One thing about coach Wilson, He's

0:03:42.400 --> 0:03:44.600
<v Speaker 1>gonna stand on you regardless how well you're playing, how

0:03:44.640 --> 0:03:46.800
<v Speaker 1>bad you're playing. He didn't care. He's gonna stay on you.

0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:49.720
<v Speaker 1>And Uh, I can tell he competes with his self

0:03:49.760 --> 0:03:52.360
<v Speaker 1>and with the coaches amongst them, who's going to get

0:03:52.360 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 1>there first in the morning. Little things like that, It

0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:59.119
<v Speaker 1>it trickles down on your secondary So just his his work,

0:03:59.280 --> 0:04:01.200
<v Speaker 1>habits and things like that have helped us out in

0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:04.440
<v Speaker 1>the room. Buster. You know what Morris Clayborner told me said, Uh,

0:04:04.680 --> 0:04:08.240
<v Speaker 1>Coach Wilson, coach d than nerd Wilson, it's all about

0:04:08.280 --> 0:04:11.760
<v Speaker 1>tough love with him. It was definitely tough love going there.

0:04:11.960 --> 0:04:14.240
<v Speaker 1>You make a bad play, you have to take the

0:04:14.320 --> 0:04:16.640
<v Speaker 1>constructors criticism because at the end of that he is

0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:19.120
<v Speaker 1>right and he's gonna get his point across. So I

0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:21.160
<v Speaker 1>think that's all in the room. We might get in

0:04:21.200 --> 0:04:23.479
<v Speaker 1>our feelings sometimes when he gets on this, but it's

0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:25.960
<v Speaker 1>all productive criticism. What have you've been able to read

0:04:26.000 --> 0:04:28.960
<v Speaker 1>differently and diagnose differently at this point in your career

0:04:28.960 --> 0:04:33.400
<v Speaker 1>than maybe you struggle with earlier. I would say offensive

0:04:33.400 --> 0:04:35.800
<v Speaker 1>alignment because in our defense and Nichols kind of like

0:04:35.800 --> 0:04:39.360
<v Speaker 1>a corner and you you can tell the offense is

0:04:39.400 --> 0:04:42.280
<v Speaker 1>gonna pass or run the ball just by looking at

0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:44.880
<v Speaker 1>the tackle. Tackles down in the ground hard, then it's

0:04:44.880 --> 0:04:46.640
<v Speaker 1>gonna be a run. If he's light, then it's gonna

0:04:46.640 --> 0:04:49.520
<v Speaker 1>be a pass. So just seeing that one thing that

0:04:49.560 --> 0:04:51.719
<v Speaker 1>helps me out a lot, just knowing what to expect.

0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:54.440
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's often in the NFL that we talked

0:04:54.440 --> 0:04:57.040
<v Speaker 1>about perfecting your craft, and I've noticed that practice. I'm

0:04:57.040 --> 0:05:00.520
<v Speaker 1>out there, you know, thirty minutes every day while stretches

0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:03.760
<v Speaker 1>going on in special teams, and you coach Lennard Wilson

0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:06.960
<v Speaker 1>and Morris Clayborne are always off the side working on something.

0:05:07.000 --> 0:05:10.760
<v Speaker 1>What are you working on? And how meticulous and how

0:05:10.839 --> 0:05:14.080
<v Speaker 1>much of a perfectionist are you? Three? Well, because d

0:05:14.160 --> 0:05:16.520
<v Speaker 1>always pulls us to the side, and we always working technique.

0:05:16.720 --> 0:05:18.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean that's first. You can be as athletic as

0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:20.599
<v Speaker 1>you want to be, but we always go over technique

0:05:20.600 --> 0:05:23.000
<v Speaker 1>and then we'll go over tennesseees from the receivers in

0:05:23.040 --> 0:05:26.200
<v Speaker 1>the game. So just hearing those things all throughout the week,

0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:28.000
<v Speaker 1>once we get in the game, we know what to

0:05:28.080 --> 0:05:30.760
<v Speaker 1>expect and we remember those technique steps once we get

0:05:30.800 --> 0:05:32.040
<v Speaker 1>in the game. I think you have one of the

0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:35.520
<v Speaker 1>most difficult positions on the Jets because in base you're

0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:38.760
<v Speaker 1>playing outside the numbers, but all of a sudden, sub

0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:41.080
<v Speaker 1>packages when you guys are lowing up the fronts of

0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:46.480
<v Speaker 1>backs on the field, there you are switching on the inside. Um. Now,

0:05:47.120 --> 0:05:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I know it's become familiar with you later in your career,

0:05:50.160 --> 0:05:53.480
<v Speaker 1>but just how difficult is that to do. It's definitely different.

0:05:53.520 --> 0:05:56.200
<v Speaker 1>When you're playing nickel, you got quicker passes and they

0:05:56.279 --> 0:05:58.440
<v Speaker 1>usually go after the nickel on third down, so the

0:05:58.520 --> 0:06:00.680
<v Speaker 1>nickel's not holding up the defense will not get off

0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:04.279
<v Speaker 1>the field. And when I'm playing corner, it's a bigger receiver.

0:06:04.600 --> 0:06:06.600
<v Speaker 1>You've got more time to react to the ball. I

0:06:06.600 --> 0:06:09.680
<v Speaker 1>think playing corner is easier because you can get you

0:06:09.720 --> 0:06:11.839
<v Speaker 1>can get your hands on the guy right in the line,

0:06:11.920 --> 0:06:13.400
<v Speaker 1>right right, you can get your hands there. It takes

0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:15.280
<v Speaker 1>long for the ball get out there. And when you're

0:06:15.279 --> 0:06:17.159
<v Speaker 1>a nickel, if you don't re run, and when the

0:06:17.200 --> 0:06:19.880
<v Speaker 1>pulling guards get to you before you re run, you

0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:23.920
<v Speaker 1>get smashed. So it's two different worlds, but I enjoy

0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:28.000
<v Speaker 1>playing book. What's the biggest challenge of playing nickel That

0:06:28.080 --> 0:06:31.480
<v Speaker 1>maybe when you're watching TV you don't really see when

0:06:31.520 --> 0:06:34.480
<v Speaker 1>you play nickel, you have to have good eyes because

0:06:34.600 --> 0:06:37.200
<v Speaker 1>those are were the quicker receivers are it. So if

0:06:37.240 --> 0:06:38.720
<v Speaker 1>you lose your eyes, if you look back at the

0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:42.080
<v Speaker 1>quarterback and not have your eyes on the receiver, that's

0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:44.640
<v Speaker 1>when either you're gonna get a penalty or they're gonna

0:06:44.640 --> 0:06:46.840
<v Speaker 1>get away and be a quick catch in the first down.

0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:48.880
<v Speaker 1>So when you're playing nickel, your eyes have to be

0:06:48.920 --> 0:06:51.839
<v Speaker 1>really well. How frustrating is that for you? And frustrating

0:06:51.839 --> 0:06:55.279
<v Speaker 1>it might not be the right word here, uh inside

0:06:55.320 --> 0:06:57.840
<v Speaker 1>the Jets, but when you're in that nickel position, when

0:06:57.839 --> 0:07:02.120
<v Speaker 1>you're lined up inside and the receiver automatically has space

0:07:02.279 --> 0:07:06.039
<v Speaker 1>before it releases it, it is what it is. It

0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:08.279
<v Speaker 1>comes with the position, So you've gotta have good feet

0:07:08.320 --> 0:07:09.960
<v Speaker 1>because when you're on the corner, when you had corner,

0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:12.679
<v Speaker 1>most of time receivers on the line when nickel receivers

0:07:12.720 --> 0:07:14.880
<v Speaker 1>back off the line. So I feel like when you

0:07:14.880 --> 0:07:16.800
<v Speaker 1>play nickel, you have to have the best feet in

0:07:16.800 --> 0:07:19.920
<v Speaker 1>the second day, and then just talking about this past

0:07:19.960 --> 0:07:24.280
<v Speaker 1>week in particular, usually the nickel receiver is, like you said,

0:07:24.280 --> 0:07:26.840
<v Speaker 1>a quick twitched guy, a little shorter. But sometimes this

0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:29.680
<v Speaker 1>past weekend, Mike Williams, who's six threes lining up in

0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:32.280
<v Speaker 1>the slot. How different of an experience is it going

0:07:32.360 --> 0:07:35.120
<v Speaker 1>up against someone that has a couple inches on you.

0:07:36.000 --> 0:07:38.080
<v Speaker 1>When I go against a big receiver, I know one

0:07:38.080 --> 0:07:39.560
<v Speaker 1>of the things they're gonna do is trying to jump

0:07:39.560 --> 0:07:43.120
<v Speaker 1>ball with through it like a favor route. But I

0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:45.320
<v Speaker 1>honestly like guarding big receivers because you can get your

0:07:45.320 --> 0:07:47.960
<v Speaker 1>hands on they're not very quick. You can now quick them,

0:07:48.040 --> 0:07:49.680
<v Speaker 1>you know where they're gonna go. They don't have a

0:07:49.720 --> 0:07:52.520
<v Speaker 1>couple of routes, whereas if you're guarding somebody that's smaller,

0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:54.520
<v Speaker 1>he can run the whole route. Street. Who's the most

0:07:54.520 --> 0:07:57.280
<v Speaker 1>difficult slot receiver you've ever faced? Is that I don't

0:07:57.280 --> 0:08:02.600
<v Speaker 1>want I'm gonna a curse I'm not giving anybody any credit.

0:08:04.360 --> 0:08:09.800
<v Speaker 1>Good answer from buster screen here tonight. Um, but the Patriots,

0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:12.840
<v Speaker 1>how deep are you into film study at this point

0:08:12.880 --> 0:08:16.200
<v Speaker 1>early in a week. It's just Tuesday. It is Tuesday.

0:08:16.360 --> 0:08:19.520
<v Speaker 1>I've already watched film. What are you saying the Patriots?

0:08:19.680 --> 0:08:22.440
<v Speaker 1>What they do is they wait till you mess up.

0:08:22.480 --> 0:08:24.560
<v Speaker 1>So you have to go into the game super disciplined,

0:08:24.600 --> 0:08:26.800
<v Speaker 1>like they were in their same place, just thinking dump

0:08:26.880 --> 0:08:29.480
<v Speaker 1>all the way down the field. And then when you

0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:32.000
<v Speaker 1>lose your eyes or you have a technique air or

0:08:32.040 --> 0:08:35.960
<v Speaker 1>you just have that one second of a lack of focus,

0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:38.240
<v Speaker 1>that's when they hit you with like a screen or

0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:40.360
<v Speaker 1>a trick play or something like that that gets to you.

0:08:40.440 --> 0:08:43.120
<v Speaker 1>So when you play the Patriots, you have to be disciplined.

0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Everybody knows the Patriots. They have a great quarterback and

0:08:47.880 --> 0:08:50.480
<v Speaker 1>he makes everybody else around them good. So you have

0:08:50.559 --> 0:08:53.439
<v Speaker 1>to play two Tom Burties level two, you know, to

0:08:53.440 --> 0:08:56.079
<v Speaker 1>Tom Brady's level of focus in order to beat them.

0:08:56.120 --> 0:08:58.280
<v Speaker 1>So without Julian Edelman this year, what have they been

0:08:58.280 --> 0:09:01.800
<v Speaker 1>doing inside? They still run the quick routes. One thing

0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:04.240
<v Speaker 1>about the Petris you can't really bliss them because they

0:09:04.240 --> 0:09:06.040
<v Speaker 1>get the ball out so quick, so you're gonna blitz

0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:08.480
<v Speaker 1>somebody in the he's gonna dump into the slot. So

0:09:09.360 --> 0:09:11.360
<v Speaker 1>Petrires are just doing what they do. They got some

0:09:11.400 --> 0:09:13.040
<v Speaker 1>different pieces, they got some guys that can take the

0:09:13.080 --> 0:09:15.360
<v Speaker 1>top off of defense, but they're sticking to what they do.

0:09:15.520 --> 0:09:17.679
<v Speaker 1>What can you take out of the first match up

0:09:17.679 --> 0:09:21.200
<v Speaker 1>between these two teams in Week six, because the Jets

0:09:21.200 --> 0:09:24.800
<v Speaker 1>defense was extremely successful against Tom Brady, he only completed

0:09:26.040 --> 0:09:28.520
<v Speaker 1>of his passage, which is his second lowest output of

0:09:28.600 --> 0:09:33.480
<v Speaker 1>the season. Yeah, you're not of a game yourself. I

0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:37.000
<v Speaker 1>did play well the two takeaways buster screen that first.

0:09:39.880 --> 0:09:42.160
<v Speaker 1>But when you play the Patriots, we have a good

0:09:42.160 --> 0:09:45.000
<v Speaker 1>team and I feel like, man for a man, like

0:09:45.360 --> 0:09:47.600
<v Speaker 1>our team, we match you up away with them. So,

0:09:48.080 --> 0:09:50.679
<v Speaker 1>like I said, it's all about the focus. Like one

0:09:50.720 --> 0:09:52.400
<v Speaker 1>thing we struggled with this year is winning in the

0:09:52.440 --> 0:09:54.880
<v Speaker 1>fourth quarter. So once this team figures out how to

0:09:54.920 --> 0:09:57.439
<v Speaker 1>win in the fourth quarter, like, the sky's the limit.

0:09:57.600 --> 0:09:59.640
<v Speaker 1>So we have a young team. I feel like we

0:09:59.679 --> 0:10:02.480
<v Speaker 1>have a young, confident team. Everybody believes in the system.

0:10:02.960 --> 0:10:04.240
<v Speaker 1>So we want to go out with the band with

0:10:04.280 --> 0:10:06.640
<v Speaker 1>the pat How about you guys defensively, how are you

0:10:06.679 --> 0:10:09.320
<v Speaker 1>sticking together as a team because nobody's pointing a finger

0:10:09.440 --> 0:10:12.800
<v Speaker 1>after that game against the Chargers. Maybe a less mature

0:10:12.840 --> 0:10:16.360
<v Speaker 1>team would say, hey, defensively, we did our job. Offensively,

0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:19.520
<v Speaker 1>you guys didn't do your job, but instead you guys

0:10:19.520 --> 0:10:22.200
<v Speaker 1>were pointing the fingers at yourselves and saying, hey, maybe

0:10:22.200 --> 0:10:24.559
<v Speaker 1>we gotta come up with the three takeaways we did

0:10:24.559 --> 0:10:26.640
<v Speaker 1>against the New Orleans Saints to help our team win.

0:10:27.200 --> 0:10:29.960
<v Speaker 1>I feel like this year, our locker rooms like a brotherhood,

0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:33.320
<v Speaker 1>so offense and defense we both get along. Sometimes defense

0:10:33.400 --> 0:10:35.640
<v Speaker 1>might not play with an offense plays with. Sometimes the

0:10:35.640 --> 0:10:38.319
<v Speaker 1>defense or the offense might play well and defense might

0:10:38.320 --> 0:10:39.880
<v Speaker 1>play well. But at the end of the day, we're

0:10:39.880 --> 0:10:41.880
<v Speaker 1>all the team. Like we all have our families and

0:10:41.920 --> 0:10:44.880
<v Speaker 1>things like that off the field, but inside that locker

0:10:44.960 --> 0:10:47.840
<v Speaker 1>room is the true families, true family field. We all

0:10:47.880 --> 0:10:49.959
<v Speaker 1>want to support our coach and things like that, so

0:10:50.720 --> 0:10:54.160
<v Speaker 1>we don't we don't ever point fingers. This Sunday, you

0:10:54.200 --> 0:10:57.520
<v Speaker 1>have an opportunity to kind of play spoiler against the Patriots.

0:10:57.520 --> 0:11:00.000
<v Speaker 1>They're still playing for the number one seed this past week.

0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:02.760
<v Speaker 1>Can playing for spoiler for the Chargers? Do you guys

0:11:02.800 --> 0:11:04.480
<v Speaker 1>think about that or at this point it's just we're

0:11:04.480 --> 0:11:06.839
<v Speaker 1>gonna go out there. We're gonna play for the names

0:11:06.840 --> 0:11:08.440
<v Speaker 1>on the front and the back and just have fun

0:11:08.760 --> 0:11:12.120
<v Speaker 1>to close out, We're just going out there playing for

0:11:12.160 --> 0:11:15.880
<v Speaker 1>our sales. Really, like our coach just keep saying we

0:11:15.920 --> 0:11:17.800
<v Speaker 1>have to play a full game. Now, I keep saying that,

0:11:18.040 --> 0:11:19.920
<v Speaker 1>but we wouldn't go out there and play four full

0:11:20.000 --> 0:11:23.080
<v Speaker 1>quarters of focus Like that's like the number one thing

0:11:23.160 --> 0:11:25.520
<v Speaker 1>is just focus the whole game. And yet we have

0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:28.680
<v Speaker 1>a younger team. But if we can sit there and

0:11:28.679 --> 0:11:31.280
<v Speaker 1>focus the whole game, I know we have something. Space.

0:11:32.360 --> 0:11:34.600
<v Speaker 1>You can get into the queue here because we're gonna

0:11:34.600 --> 0:11:38.480
<v Speaker 1>be taking some calls on insaide the Juste ESPN, Eric

0:11:38.520 --> 0:11:41.480
<v Speaker 1>ellen Ethan Greenberg and just cornerback buster screen here a

0:11:41.600 --> 0:11:47.560
<v Speaker 1>Vanderbilts sports and spirits. Um, what's different defensively because what

0:11:47.640 --> 0:11:50.280
<v Speaker 1>pops out at me and I'm in the press box

0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:53.440
<v Speaker 1>each and every game between two thousand and seventeen and

0:11:53.480 --> 0:11:57.120
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and sixteen buster as, I think that there's

0:11:57.480 --> 0:12:04.160
<v Speaker 1>more energy and also the speed difference is so noticeable. Yeah,

0:12:04.160 --> 0:12:08.240
<v Speaker 1>we have a lot of packages where there's multiple dbs

0:12:08.240 --> 0:12:10.520
<v Speaker 1>on the field, not not dying, but I don't even

0:12:10.559 --> 0:12:12.760
<v Speaker 1>know what you call it. After dime. But we call

0:12:12.840 --> 0:12:17.120
<v Speaker 1>the speed package. So is that seven dbs. It's seven dbs,

0:12:17.160 --> 0:12:19.240
<v Speaker 1>so and then and then and then includes four safety

0:12:19.360 --> 0:12:24.120
<v Speaker 1>sometimes yeah, seven dbs. You got. I can't even do

0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:28.240
<v Speaker 1>the raft two d linemen, two linebackers. So we do

0:12:28.320 --> 0:12:30.200
<v Speaker 1>have the speed packages with Bliss a lot. I think

0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:33.320
<v Speaker 1>everybody in our secondary has a sack this year. What's

0:12:33.360 --> 0:12:36.920
<v Speaker 1>different from most teams, but we are playing a lot faster,

0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:40.120
<v Speaker 1>a lot of our new talent r dbs, So we've

0:12:40.200 --> 0:12:42.319
<v Speaker 1>used that type. And what does that then allow you

0:12:42.360 --> 0:12:44.439
<v Speaker 1>to do? With all the speed on the field. It

0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:47.280
<v Speaker 1>confuses quarterbacks because he sees so many dbs, he don't

0:12:47.320 --> 0:12:50.040
<v Speaker 1>know who's dropping into cover. So we can get there

0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:52.240
<v Speaker 1>just a little bit quicker than whether d line nor

0:12:52.240 --> 0:12:56.200
<v Speaker 1>a linebacker. Justin merce is playing time is picked up

0:12:56.360 --> 0:12:59.280
<v Speaker 1>of late because when you guys have gone to sub packages,

0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:03.040
<v Speaker 1>you be moving inside. He's been going outside the numbers.

0:13:03.080 --> 0:13:05.439
<v Speaker 1>How is he coming along? I think Justin is doing

0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:08.680
<v Speaker 1>a great job. I think the last four games he's

0:13:08.720 --> 0:13:11.440
<v Speaker 1>only allowed to catchers or something crazy like that, so

0:13:11.960 --> 0:13:13.719
<v Speaker 1>he's doing a great job. I always thought Justin was

0:13:13.760 --> 0:13:16.040
<v Speaker 1>a good player. I mean there was a time in

0:13:16.040 --> 0:13:18.760
<v Speaker 1>the season where you know Darryl Robins got to play

0:13:18.840 --> 0:13:21.400
<v Speaker 1>a little bit more than him. But just coming there

0:13:21.400 --> 0:13:24.600
<v Speaker 1>and come back strong was just good to see, just

0:13:24.600 --> 0:13:26.440
<v Speaker 1>because you know he's a confident guy. What do you

0:13:26.480 --> 0:13:29.240
<v Speaker 1>see from him? What's the biggest difference from his rookie

0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:34.160
<v Speaker 1>year to his second year. He's smarter. I can say

0:13:34.200 --> 0:13:37.040
<v Speaker 1>the whole secondary is a whole is smarter just because

0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:40.000
<v Speaker 1>our coach. He he does a lot of the heart,

0:13:40.080 --> 0:13:42.880
<v Speaker 1>like a lot of the dirty work of film study

0:13:43.000 --> 0:13:45.800
<v Speaker 1>and founding out tendencies and things like that. Thenard already

0:13:45.880 --> 0:13:49.040
<v Speaker 1>has it. You guys really enjoyed playing for him. Did

0:13:49.120 --> 0:13:51.360
<v Speaker 1>you know too much about Thenard before he came over

0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:53.720
<v Speaker 1>from As I knew he had a good secondary, But

0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:56.200
<v Speaker 1>I said, maybe it's just the players is the reason

0:13:56.240 --> 0:13:59.840
<v Speaker 1>why the secondary is so good. But him as a coach,

0:14:00.000 --> 0:14:01.400
<v Speaker 1>a good coach. I think it'd be a head coach

0:14:01.400 --> 0:14:02.760
<v Speaker 1>one day. I give him a lot of credit. You

0:14:02.800 --> 0:14:06.400
<v Speaker 1>get on my nerves sometimes because it's the tough love

0:14:06.600 --> 0:14:10.880
<v Speaker 1>that's gone. I respect him. I respect him a lot.

0:14:11.000 --> 0:14:14.720
<v Speaker 1>Oh why have you and Morris Clayborne got along so well?

0:14:14.840 --> 0:14:18.360
<v Speaker 1>You guys are the two older members of that secondary

0:14:18.400 --> 0:14:22.720
<v Speaker 1>at I would say me and him get along, both

0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:25.440
<v Speaker 1>from them South and we both laid by that type

0:14:25.440 --> 0:14:30.360
<v Speaker 1>of dude, the opposite of a Jamal. But we just

0:14:30.400 --> 0:14:32.320
<v Speaker 1>we just get along. We sit together every day. I mean,

0:14:32.320 --> 0:14:35.080
<v Speaker 1>we both got families, We got a lot that's in common.

0:14:35.480 --> 0:14:40.440
<v Speaker 1>Morris seems to have a different switch when you talk

0:14:40.520 --> 0:14:43.440
<v Speaker 1>to him. Nice guy, like you said, kind of laid back,

0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:46.320
<v Speaker 1>but you see it in his eyes when it's game time,

0:14:46.440 --> 0:14:48.840
<v Speaker 1>he just goes to a different level. I think it's

0:14:48.880 --> 0:14:53.120
<v Speaker 1>the ls SI Jamal. Jamal already an energect person, but

0:14:53.160 --> 0:14:56.080
<v Speaker 1>then when the game comes is like energizes the bunny.

0:14:56.160 --> 0:14:59.400
<v Speaker 1>And then with with Mo, I'll say one thing to him,

0:14:59.440 --> 0:15:01.800
<v Speaker 1>I say best dvs in the league, and that's it.

0:15:01.840 --> 0:15:04.360
<v Speaker 1>I'll just leave it there because he's so focused. So

0:15:05.440 --> 0:15:07.440
<v Speaker 1>I like playing with them guys. They got good energy

0:15:07.880 --> 0:15:11.080
<v Speaker 1>them too, and maybe everybody that's so. So, what what

0:15:11.200 --> 0:15:14.680
<v Speaker 1>has impressed you most about Jamal Adams to Jets first

0:15:14.760 --> 0:15:18.000
<v Speaker 1>round pick of two thousand seventeen, and then Marcus May

0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:21.160
<v Speaker 1>the Jets second round pick of two thousand seventeen. The

0:15:21.200 --> 0:15:24.800
<v Speaker 1>thing I would say is impressed me most. They both

0:15:24.800 --> 0:15:27.000
<v Speaker 1>came in like vess, both of those guys came in.

0:15:27.800 --> 0:15:31.360
<v Speaker 1>They didn't miss a beat. And one thing about Ricky's

0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:33.000
<v Speaker 1>when they when a Rickie goes on the field, he

0:15:33.040 --> 0:15:36.400
<v Speaker 1>messes up, he continues to miss up. Them guys mess up,

0:15:36.440 --> 0:15:38.520
<v Speaker 1>they get back up and then make a big play.

0:15:38.600 --> 0:15:42.000
<v Speaker 1>So I respect that a lot about the New Jack City,

0:15:42.040 --> 0:15:47.040
<v Speaker 1>that's what the secondary has coined itself. And Thenard came

0:15:47.160 --> 0:15:49.360
<v Speaker 1>up with that. He did. I asked you that in

0:15:49.640 --> 0:15:51.400
<v Speaker 1>training camp. But I want to know what does New

0:15:51.520 --> 0:15:54.000
<v Speaker 1>Jack City mean to you? How does the player? How

0:15:54.000 --> 0:15:57.280
<v Speaker 1>do the players embody what it's supposed to mean? It

0:15:57.360 --> 0:15:59.680
<v Speaker 1>just means with the baddest people on the field. I mean,

0:15:59.840 --> 0:16:01.920
<v Speaker 1>is it goes deeper in that? But we're gonna keep

0:16:01.960 --> 0:16:04.440
<v Speaker 1>that in the room. But the coach always says like

0:16:04.520 --> 0:16:06.360
<v Speaker 1>y'all go out there and be the baddest boys on

0:16:06.360 --> 0:16:10.200
<v Speaker 1>the field. But different terminology. Okay, okay, no doubt. We

0:16:10.520 --> 0:16:13.880
<v Speaker 1>are alive on ESPN Radio and also streaming on New

0:16:13.920 --> 0:16:18.160
<v Speaker 1>York dot Com and Facebook, so Buster screen using discretion

0:16:18.200 --> 0:16:21.640
<v Speaker 1>there and we really appreciate that. Uh but plus, how

0:16:21.680 --> 0:16:24.800
<v Speaker 1>about those guys though, the way they both play the run?

0:16:25.040 --> 0:16:29.360
<v Speaker 1>I know that was the Scotty report on Jamal when

0:16:29.360 --> 0:16:32.160
<v Speaker 1>he came out of Lacio. He can play very well

0:16:32.160 --> 0:16:34.720
<v Speaker 1>inside the box, but he takes pride as far as

0:16:34.720 --> 0:16:39.280
<v Speaker 1>what he does in the backfield as well. But Marcus May, Wow,

0:16:39.520 --> 0:16:41.320
<v Speaker 1>he can come in there. He can lay some people

0:16:41.360 --> 0:16:44.960
<v Speaker 1>on himself. Well, Jamal is to play our defense. We're

0:16:44.960 --> 0:16:47.960
<v Speaker 1>a gap defense, so everybody has their own gap. So

0:16:48.120 --> 0:16:50.160
<v Speaker 1>a lot of times if somebody does jump out there gap,

0:16:50.240 --> 0:16:52.880
<v Speaker 1>Jamal will save them and make it a perfect tackle.

0:16:53.440 --> 0:16:56.200
<v Speaker 1>But may I give may the crown on tackling this

0:16:56.240 --> 0:16:57.920
<v Speaker 1>year because we put them in a lot of bad

0:16:57.920 --> 0:17:00.360
<v Speaker 1>positions where he's had to make them one on one

0:17:00.400 --> 0:17:02.800
<v Speaker 1>tackle and for a rookie, that's very hard to do.

0:17:03.160 --> 0:17:05.840
<v Speaker 1>But he is a natural born tackling. Do you think

0:17:05.880 --> 0:17:07.880
<v Speaker 1>he's the best open field tackler on the New York

0:17:07.920 --> 0:17:12.520
<v Speaker 1>Jets besides me? Besides by the screen, I like that

0:17:12.600 --> 0:17:16.680
<v Speaker 1>bus um Patriots this week. But I want to talk

0:17:16.720 --> 0:17:20.080
<v Speaker 1>about offseason, not because you're looking ahead, but I thought

0:17:20.119 --> 0:17:23.480
<v Speaker 1>the listeners might enjoy hearing this about you. You are

0:17:23.560 --> 0:17:26.520
<v Speaker 1>a diverse guy who has a lot of interest, and

0:17:27.040 --> 0:17:33.520
<v Speaker 1>this offseason you started teaching the classes. Basically you became

0:17:33.560 --> 0:17:36.080
<v Speaker 1>a workout instructor. Tell us about that. Yeah, I did

0:17:36.160 --> 0:17:39.159
<v Speaker 1>become a workout instructor um. It all goes back to

0:17:39.200 --> 0:17:42.280
<v Speaker 1>the charity Screenway that's the new name for it. But

0:17:42.720 --> 0:17:45.600
<v Speaker 1>I started those workouts because most of the time when

0:17:45.600 --> 0:17:47.600
<v Speaker 1>people have charity events and things like that, they just

0:17:47.640 --> 0:17:50.480
<v Speaker 1>have a big event ask for donations. So I wanted

0:17:50.520 --> 0:17:52.840
<v Speaker 1>to give back to people by giving them a workout.

0:17:53.320 --> 0:17:57.200
<v Speaker 1>We have these lifestyle experience type parties, so that was

0:17:57.240 --> 0:17:59.320
<v Speaker 1>really my way of showing the people, Hey, I want

0:17:59.320 --> 0:18:02.160
<v Speaker 1>to give you something back for donating and I enjoy

0:18:02.240 --> 0:18:05.119
<v Speaker 1>doing it. So that's why where can where can people

0:18:05.160 --> 0:18:08.040
<v Speaker 1>go online to let's say, go to one of your

0:18:08.040 --> 0:18:10.359
<v Speaker 1>classes or one of your events, Because if you follow

0:18:10.400 --> 0:18:13.120
<v Speaker 1>bus or on Instagram, you see it throughout the season,

0:18:13.200 --> 0:18:17.800
<v Speaker 1>whether it's Thanksgiving, Halloween, or just the normal Tuesday and

0:18:18.000 --> 0:18:21.040
<v Speaker 1>whatever month of the season, he's always doing something. So

0:18:21.119 --> 0:18:23.920
<v Speaker 1>any social media Screenway or you can just go to

0:18:23.960 --> 0:18:26.800
<v Speaker 1>screenway dot com and you can see upcoming events and

0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:28.920
<v Speaker 1>the type of work that we've done throughout the year.

0:18:29.359 --> 0:18:31.959
<v Speaker 1>But I can say the city of New York has

0:18:31.960 --> 0:18:36.000
<v Speaker 1>showed a lot of support. Recently, we donated two and

0:18:36.040 --> 0:18:39.080
<v Speaker 1>thirty seven bikes to East Harlem. We gave over five

0:18:39.160 --> 0:18:42.240
<v Speaker 1>hundred meals and Thanksgiving. It's been a true blessing just

0:18:42.320 --> 0:18:46.400
<v Speaker 1>how people have have came in such a short notice

0:18:47.000 --> 0:18:49.919
<v Speaker 1>off screenway being built just two years ago. It's just

0:18:50.040 --> 0:18:52.640
<v Speaker 1>made How good does that make you feel that you're

0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:55.240
<v Speaker 1>using your platform now busters to help others in need?

0:18:55.560 --> 0:18:57.760
<v Speaker 1>It makes me feel good. I always told people I

0:18:57.760 --> 0:19:00.119
<v Speaker 1>always want to get a big contract, just blessing a

0:19:00.160 --> 0:19:03.320
<v Speaker 1>big contract. But after that, I wanted to figure out

0:19:03.359 --> 0:19:05.119
<v Speaker 1>what my purpose was, and I feel like my purpose

0:19:05.280 --> 0:19:08.400
<v Speaker 1>is to help people. What's your favorite event that you do?

0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:11.920
<v Speaker 1>Favorite event? I would say the workouts. I started these

0:19:11.960 --> 0:19:15.240
<v Speaker 1>lifestyle experiences lately, which is kind of like a party.

0:19:15.400 --> 0:19:17.879
<v Speaker 1>But I like working out, all right, So tell us

0:19:17.880 --> 0:19:20.480
<v Speaker 1>about the workouts. You took me through one workout, you

0:19:20.520 --> 0:19:22.119
<v Speaker 1>can look that up New York. Just stuck out a

0:19:22.119 --> 0:19:24.600
<v Speaker 1>bunch of screen Eric Ellen. If you want to, you

0:19:24.640 --> 0:19:26.560
<v Speaker 1>can do a Google searcher. Just go to the site.

0:19:26.560 --> 0:19:30.800
<v Speaker 1>But what is the workout all about. It's a high

0:19:30.840 --> 0:19:33.480
<v Speaker 1>intense interval train type of workout, and we kind of

0:19:33.520 --> 0:19:35.720
<v Speaker 1>make some football moves in just to make it fun.

0:19:36.400 --> 0:19:39.640
<v Speaker 1>But you're come in there. Your workout for twenty seven

0:19:39.880 --> 0:19:43.000
<v Speaker 1>to thirty two minutes, high intense workout. You can go

0:19:43.040 --> 0:19:46.400
<v Speaker 1>with your own speed, and I guarantee you lose at

0:19:46.480 --> 0:19:50.199
<v Speaker 1>least five hundred calories. How did I How did he do?

0:19:50.560 --> 0:19:52.240
<v Speaker 1>He did? He did a great job. I'm not gonna

0:19:52.280 --> 0:19:55.440
<v Speaker 1>lie well. Expectations though, when he told you, Hey, I'm

0:19:55.440 --> 0:19:57.399
<v Speaker 1>coming in, we're doing the head workout, you put me

0:19:57.400 --> 0:19:59.639
<v Speaker 1>through the ringer. I did left a little bit before

0:20:00.119 --> 0:20:01.919
<v Speaker 1>is a but if we got there a little bit

0:20:01.960 --> 0:20:03.959
<v Speaker 1>early because we just set up the camera equipment, so

0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:07.639
<v Speaker 1>it might have been a little stiff before before. He

0:20:08.520 --> 0:20:10.720
<v Speaker 1>has a fig guy, and I did a couple of

0:20:10.840 --> 0:20:12.560
<v Speaker 1>drills on the field with him before I knew he

0:20:12.600 --> 0:20:15.359
<v Speaker 1>was that. Let me tell you that's another video you

0:20:15.400 --> 0:20:17.280
<v Speaker 1>have to look up on New York dot Com. I've

0:20:17.320 --> 0:20:20.040
<v Speaker 1>seen that video. People do not have enough respect for

0:20:20.160 --> 0:20:23.119
<v Speaker 1>NFL players because I went out there on the field

0:20:23.560 --> 0:20:26.400
<v Speaker 1>with Buster and I thought, okay, well he's gonna take

0:20:26.400 --> 0:20:29.480
<v Speaker 1>it easy on me. And oh my god, he played

0:20:29.520 --> 0:20:33.680
<v Speaker 1>receiver and I he took one step and I want

0:20:33.840 --> 0:20:37.760
<v Speaker 1>ten yards that way, and he went that way. It

0:20:37.840 --> 0:20:42.040
<v Speaker 1>was just unbelievable. I did my eyes I thought my

0:20:42.080 --> 0:20:45.000
<v Speaker 1>eyesight was good, but he took a step. I was there,

0:20:45.119 --> 0:20:47.680
<v Speaker 1>he was there and so long story short, you did

0:20:47.720 --> 0:20:49.720
<v Speaker 1>better in the hit workout than you did on the

0:20:49.720 --> 0:20:53.680
<v Speaker 1>field against Buster. Yes, yes, Buster again, I'll tell you

0:20:53.840 --> 0:20:57.400
<v Speaker 1>who is the pound for pound champion inside the Jets

0:20:57.440 --> 0:21:01.720
<v Speaker 1>weight room Busters screen. That's right. And and just for

0:21:01.800 --> 0:21:04.800
<v Speaker 1>the record, Steve McClendon verified that on Facebook Live when

0:21:04.840 --> 0:21:06.760
<v Speaker 1>I did something with him. So now we have multiple

0:21:06.840 --> 0:21:09.719
<v Speaker 1>people saying that Busters pound for pound of strongs. Do

0:21:09.720 --> 0:21:13.240
<v Speaker 1>you ever? Do you ever max out at any point

0:21:13.359 --> 0:21:16.280
<v Speaker 1>during off season anymore? I have not maxed out in

0:21:16.280 --> 0:21:18.879
<v Speaker 1>a while, but when I was in college I had it.

0:21:19.560 --> 0:21:24.960
<v Speaker 1>Really Tennessee, Chattooga, Tennessee, Canne. Austral coasts lift so much weight, Yeah,

0:21:25.160 --> 0:21:27.399
<v Speaker 1>so much weight. I feel like I will never be

0:21:27.480 --> 0:21:31.480
<v Speaker 1>weak ever again. And at that point you were weighing

0:21:31.480 --> 0:21:36.159
<v Speaker 1>in eight maybe came into college a hundred forty hundred

0:21:36.280 --> 0:21:39.760
<v Speaker 1>forty eight pounds And how much we be thrown up

0:21:39.760 --> 0:21:43.679
<v Speaker 1>on the punch at the combine or just max? No,

0:21:43.760 --> 0:21:47.600
<v Speaker 1>but Max four oh five four oh, five hundred and

0:21:47.640 --> 0:21:50.800
<v Speaker 1>fifty pounder, not when I when I was one eight? Yeah,

0:21:50.800 --> 0:21:54.480
<v Speaker 1>I got one four oh? And how about Max squat

0:21:55.320 --> 0:21:58.919
<v Speaker 1>five something? I can't remember five something. It's something crazy,

0:21:59.040 --> 0:22:02.200
<v Speaker 1>but the most important deal. It's squatting, right, because everybody

0:22:02.200 --> 0:22:04.000
<v Speaker 1>gets caught up in the gym about the bench. It's

0:22:04.040 --> 0:22:06.480
<v Speaker 1>about the legs. It is about the leg But nowadays

0:22:06.520 --> 0:22:08.320
<v Speaker 1>I do a lot of stuff that's just more apply

0:22:08.560 --> 0:22:12.719
<v Speaker 1>metric and control, just because you gotta have those catlit

0:22:12.800 --> 0:22:15.480
<v Speaker 1>reflexs to play corner. So that's something you can check

0:22:15.480 --> 0:22:19.200
<v Speaker 1>out Screenway screenway dot com. Yeah, because you'll be doing

0:22:19.200 --> 0:22:20.879
<v Speaker 1>that in the off season in New York City. And

0:22:20.960 --> 0:22:24.560
<v Speaker 1>you're a guy who really obviously grew up in South

0:22:24.680 --> 0:22:26.680
<v Speaker 1>Play with the Browns for a few years. You really

0:22:26.760 --> 0:22:29.119
<v Speaker 1>enjoy this area, don't you. I do. I do. I

0:22:29.200 --> 0:22:31.720
<v Speaker 1>enjoyed a lot. The city showed me a lot of

0:22:31.760 --> 0:22:34.840
<v Speaker 1>love since I've been here. So I would like to

0:22:34.880 --> 0:22:37.960
<v Speaker 1>continue to be what's next for the New York Jots

0:22:38.000 --> 0:22:41.520
<v Speaker 1>after after Sunday obviously gonna tried to get that victory

0:22:41.560 --> 0:22:43.520
<v Speaker 1>pull off an up side of the Patriots, and you

0:22:43.520 --> 0:22:46.200
<v Speaker 1>think you're being that ball game late, but what's next?

0:22:46.280 --> 0:22:49.400
<v Speaker 1>You think what's next is just to attack the off season.

0:22:49.920 --> 0:22:51.199
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I know a lot of guys know we

0:22:51.200 --> 0:22:52.960
<v Speaker 1>could have been a lot better than what we were

0:22:53.200 --> 0:22:55.800
<v Speaker 1>this year. But I know we have a lot of

0:22:55.840 --> 0:22:57.639
<v Speaker 1>hungry guys, a lot of hungry coaches. We got a

0:22:57.680 --> 0:22:59.960
<v Speaker 1>lot to prove. So just going to the off season,

0:23:00.040 --> 0:23:02.400
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna tach eat and have a better off season

0:23:02.440 --> 0:23:05.720
<v Speaker 1>than last year. Buster Screen, thank you so much for

0:23:05.880 --> 0:23:08.640
<v Speaker 1>joining us here on Inside the Jets and will come

0:23:08.760 --> 0:23:12.120
<v Speaker 1>right back eight nine one nine ESPN and will take

0:23:12.119 --> 0:23:15.240
<v Speaker 1>some of your calls. Welcome back to Inside the Jets.

0:23:15.320 --> 0:23:18.240
<v Speaker 1>Eric youlln Ethan Greenberg here at Vanderbilt Sports and Spirits

0:23:18.240 --> 0:23:21.280
<v Speaker 1>inside the Windham Hamilton's Park Hotel. Nice spot there with

0:23:21.400 --> 0:23:25.200
<v Speaker 1>Buster Screen. Green's um. I talked to Todd Bowls about

0:23:25.200 --> 0:23:28.480
<v Speaker 1>it last week before the Chargers game, and he said

0:23:28.520 --> 0:23:31.240
<v Speaker 1>he's been one of our better players over the past

0:23:31.280 --> 0:23:32.919
<v Speaker 1>three or four weeks. I mean, you look at his

0:23:32.960 --> 0:23:37.399
<v Speaker 1>stats from weeks twelve to fifteen, twelve tackles, five pass defenses,

0:23:37.680 --> 0:23:40.600
<v Speaker 1>a forced fumble which he then recovered down in New

0:23:40.680 --> 0:23:44.720
<v Speaker 1>Orleans and no penalties. Really a stretch that Buster played

0:23:44.760 --> 0:23:46.840
<v Speaker 1>his best football at two thousands seventeen. Yeah, and I

0:23:46.840 --> 0:23:49.560
<v Speaker 1>think it's been his best stretch of football as a

0:23:49.600 --> 0:23:52.640
<v Speaker 1>New York Jet. He's in his third year here with

0:23:52.720 --> 0:23:55.359
<v Speaker 1>the Jets. We're gonna be taking some calls here on

0:23:55.440 --> 0:23:58.480
<v Speaker 1>Inside the Jets one nine one nine E s p

0:23:59.000 --> 0:24:04.480
<v Speaker 1>N U Um. Let's go to Ray right now, Ray, Yes,

0:24:04.760 --> 0:24:10.320
<v Speaker 1>you're on the line. Oh Ray, Ray dropped off? Okay,

0:24:10.359 --> 0:24:16.840
<v Speaker 1>so so nine ESPN. When I look back to the

0:24:16.920 --> 0:24:20.360
<v Speaker 1>Jets last game against the Chargers, bilaal Pole stands out

0:24:20.400 --> 0:24:24.080
<v Speaker 1>a hundred forty five yards on the ground for Paul

0:24:24.200 --> 0:24:26.640
<v Speaker 1>and now he's got a season career high in terms

0:24:26.640 --> 0:24:30.200
<v Speaker 1>of rush yards and touchdowns. And he also has become

0:24:30.560 --> 0:24:33.720
<v Speaker 1>the first back in New York Jets history with three

0:24:34.080 --> 0:24:37.200
<v Speaker 1>carries of at least fifty yards greens and this past weekend,

0:24:37.200 --> 0:24:39.920
<v Speaker 1>he did so because of a fifty seven yard touchdown

0:24:40.000 --> 0:24:42.359
<v Speaker 1>run that got the Jets on the board, which I

0:24:42.400 --> 0:24:44.880
<v Speaker 1>have to say, my favorite part about the whole run one.

0:24:44.960 --> 0:24:48.040
<v Speaker 1>I love the play design with an outside toss after

0:24:48.119 --> 0:24:50.840
<v Speaker 1>Joe Joe Natson comes across a little decoy there. How

0:24:50.880 --> 0:24:55.399
<v Speaker 1>about Jonathan Harrison running down the sideline, paving the way

0:24:55.480 --> 0:24:57.320
<v Speaker 1>for Powell and then he takes out two guys to

0:24:57.320 --> 0:24:59.680
<v Speaker 1>try to tackle Powell from behind him. Listen, how about

0:24:59.680 --> 0:25:03.480
<v Speaker 1>the whole offensive line what they did against the Charges

0:25:03.560 --> 0:25:08.159
<v Speaker 1>because the Jets depth was tested. Jonathan Harrison starting in

0:25:08.240 --> 0:25:12.320
<v Speaker 1>place of Wesley Johnson at right guard, you had the

0:25:12.400 --> 0:25:14.800
<v Speaker 1>code the CODEA does you're filling in for Brian Winners

0:25:14.800 --> 0:25:18.040
<v Speaker 1>and then finally right tackle, you're brand quality filling in

0:25:18.280 --> 0:25:21.359
<v Speaker 1>for Brandon Show. And the Jets did a nice job

0:25:21.840 --> 0:25:24.760
<v Speaker 1>on Sunday controlling the line of scrimmage. They did that

0:25:24.800 --> 0:25:27.160
<v Speaker 1>against the New Orleans Saints and know of an opportunity

0:25:27.359 --> 0:25:30.520
<v Speaker 1>to do that again this week against the New England defense,

0:25:30.560 --> 0:25:34.680
<v Speaker 1>who plays a bend but don't break philosophy, meaning they

0:25:34.680 --> 0:25:36.840
<v Speaker 1>give up a lot of yards, they don't tend to

0:25:36.840 --> 0:25:39.560
<v Speaker 1>give up a lot of points. The Patriots defense is

0:25:39.720 --> 0:25:42.320
<v Speaker 1>seventh in the league and scoring, but their twenty nine

0:25:42.440 --> 0:25:45.200
<v Speaker 1>overall they average. They allow four point eight yards to

0:25:45.280 --> 0:25:47.359
<v Speaker 1>carry on the ground, and just looking at the Jets

0:25:47.640 --> 0:25:50.600
<v Speaker 1>rushing game over the past two weeks, they're averaging a

0:25:50.680 --> 0:25:54.440
<v Speaker 1>hundred sixty yards and five and a half yards per carry.

0:25:54.560 --> 0:25:57.520
<v Speaker 1>So really between blow Powell, I know he's been the

0:25:57.520 --> 0:25:59.199
<v Speaker 1>main guy the past couple of weeks, but when you

0:25:59.240 --> 0:26:03.040
<v Speaker 1>factor in Matt Workta and Elijah McGuire, they're all doing

0:26:03.160 --> 0:26:05.920
<v Speaker 1>very well in the backfield in this short amount of time.

0:26:05.920 --> 0:26:09.000
<v Speaker 1>And they'll have another opportunity this weekend because the Patriots

0:26:09.040 --> 0:26:12.400
<v Speaker 1>rush defense. It's not all that Robby Anderson is sixty

0:26:12.640 --> 0:26:15.600
<v Speaker 1>one yard shy of a thousand. Who would have thought

0:26:15.720 --> 0:26:18.720
<v Speaker 1>that coming into the two thousand seventeen season. He's really

0:26:18.760 --> 0:26:22.639
<v Speaker 1>blossomed into a complete receiver. He's one of the guys

0:26:22.680 --> 0:26:26.359
<v Speaker 1>that last season we were pointing to because he was undrafted.

0:26:26.560 --> 0:26:28.879
<v Speaker 1>He made the team. You're giving it props. He played

0:26:28.920 --> 0:26:32.560
<v Speaker 1>well throughout the regular season, and then this season he

0:26:32.600 --> 0:26:34.879
<v Speaker 1>really took it up a notch, especially when you factor

0:26:34.880 --> 0:26:37.840
<v Speaker 1>in the loss of Quincy and Nanue in training camp,

0:26:38.040 --> 0:26:40.120
<v Speaker 1>during the Green and White scrimmage and then no one

0:26:40.160 --> 0:26:43.920
<v Speaker 1>really I think externally. The narrative was the wide receiving

0:26:43.960 --> 0:26:47.040
<v Speaker 1>corps would be the weak link of the offense, and

0:26:47.040 --> 0:26:49.280
<v Speaker 1>and turned it turned out to be one of the strengths.

0:26:49.520 --> 0:26:52.600
<v Speaker 1>When the Jets traded for Jermaine Cursey came in. He's

0:26:52.640 --> 0:26:56.120
<v Speaker 1>had a career year, as has Robby Anderson. Jermaine Curse

0:26:56.160 --> 0:26:59.960
<v Speaker 1>sixty catches seven fifty one yards. He's got five receiving touched.

0:27:00.280 --> 0:27:03.399
<v Speaker 1>The other thing to think of his hey, Quincy and

0:27:03.480 --> 0:27:06.679
<v Speaker 1>Nona gets healthy after the surgery to the neck, and

0:27:06.720 --> 0:27:09.320
<v Speaker 1>he's in good shape. He comes back. Jan Hansen has

0:27:09.359 --> 0:27:12.840
<v Speaker 1>been flashing. You've got Urt Darius Stewart here. Uh. This

0:27:12.960 --> 0:27:17.360
<v Speaker 1>Jets receiving unit has a lot of potential and they're young.

0:27:17.600 --> 0:27:19.879
<v Speaker 1>It's if you're a Jets fan, I think you have

0:27:20.000 --> 0:27:22.960
<v Speaker 1>to be encouraged from what you've seen from this group.

0:27:23.200 --> 0:27:25.359
<v Speaker 1>And then you factor in the three running backs that

0:27:25.440 --> 0:27:27.800
<v Speaker 1>we just mentioned. They're all options out of the backfield too,

0:27:27.800 --> 0:27:31.199
<v Speaker 1>and they're kind of a safety blanket for Bryce Patty

0:27:31.240 --> 0:27:33.400
<v Speaker 1>and before that, Josh McCown. And then you look at

0:27:33.560 --> 0:27:36.359
<v Speaker 1>Austin Safari and Jenkins who has a career high in

0:27:36.440 --> 0:27:39.760
<v Speaker 1>receptions this season, and he's been one of the offseason

0:27:40.040 --> 0:27:42.720
<v Speaker 1>top stories I'd say because he was down thirty pounds.

0:27:43.160 --> 0:27:45.679
<v Speaker 1>He revamped his life the way he goes about his

0:27:45.720 --> 0:27:48.000
<v Speaker 1>business and you could see it on early. I know

0:27:48.160 --> 0:27:50.840
<v Speaker 1>his production has kind of waned over the past couple

0:27:50.840 --> 0:27:53.439
<v Speaker 1>of weeks, but he attacks every day like it's his

0:27:53.560 --> 0:27:56.320
<v Speaker 1>last and he's so happy to be a part of

0:27:56.320 --> 0:27:58.440
<v Speaker 1>this organization. And you can really tell whenever you speak

0:27:58.480 --> 0:28:03.240
<v Speaker 1>to him. One nine ESPN, let's try to four lines

0:28:03.400 --> 0:28:07.040
<v Speaker 1>one more time. Is Donald from New Jersey? Donald? How

0:28:07.080 --> 0:28:11.399
<v Speaker 1>are you? Yeah? How are you guys doing great? Yeah? Listen,

0:28:11.440 --> 0:28:13.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm just cooling because I know you've talked about it

0:28:13.920 --> 0:28:16.199
<v Speaker 1>at some point. I don't know about tonight. You know,

0:28:16.280 --> 0:28:22.760
<v Speaker 1>all this uh non definitive. Nobody's been definitive about getting

0:28:23.119 --> 0:28:26.679
<v Speaker 1>Bowls back next year. And I definitely think he should

0:28:26.680 --> 0:28:30.240
<v Speaker 1>be back, you know, given the fact, Uh all you

0:28:30.280 --> 0:28:34.840
<v Speaker 1>had to do is watch Petty throw the boy yesterday. Um,

0:28:34.840 --> 0:28:37.600
<v Speaker 1>but I was wondering if you had heard anything one

0:28:37.640 --> 0:28:41.080
<v Speaker 1>way or another, or or what you guys since was

0:28:41.120 --> 0:28:44.000
<v Speaker 1>her opinion was, Yeah, thanks for we called Donald. I'll

0:28:44.040 --> 0:28:46.920
<v Speaker 1>just say here is that the Jets are gonna play

0:28:46.960 --> 0:28:50.920
<v Speaker 1>out the season here. They're gonna finish up the regular

0:28:50.960 --> 0:28:53.520
<v Speaker 1>season against the Patriots, and then you can anticipate you're

0:28:53.520 --> 0:28:56.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna hear from Jet's ownership within the next week or two,

0:28:56.680 --> 0:29:00.520
<v Speaker 1>like it happens every year greens around here. You know,

0:29:00.560 --> 0:29:03.800
<v Speaker 1>Christopher Johnson, the acting order of the New York Jets,

0:29:04.000 --> 0:29:06.440
<v Speaker 1>and Todd Bowles is not one to talk about his job.

0:29:06.560 --> 0:29:08.840
<v Speaker 1>And I think that's very clear if you ever tune

0:29:08.840 --> 0:29:12.479
<v Speaker 1>into a press conference, because whatever question comes regarding his future,

0:29:12.520 --> 0:29:14.120
<v Speaker 1>he said, you know what, I'm not here to talk

0:29:14.120 --> 0:29:16.560
<v Speaker 1>about my job. I'm here to coach football. Yeah. Well,

0:29:16.600 --> 0:29:18.960
<v Speaker 1>and the other thing is he's got to prepare his

0:29:19.000 --> 0:29:21.560
<v Speaker 1>guys to play on Sunday. But with that being said, Donald,

0:29:21.600 --> 0:29:23.719
<v Speaker 1>I would agree with you that I think Todd Bowles

0:29:24.240 --> 0:29:27.000
<v Speaker 1>has had a very good year coaching because when you

0:29:27.000 --> 0:29:30.440
<v Speaker 1>look at this team. Boba Shusan touched on this on

0:29:30.480 --> 0:29:33.640
<v Speaker 1>the Michael K Show prior to Inside the Jets here

0:29:33.840 --> 0:29:37.240
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and fifteen. The Jets won ten games in

0:29:37.400 --> 0:29:40.560
<v Speaker 1>Todd Bowls first season in two thousand and sixteen. They

0:29:40.560 --> 0:29:43.000
<v Speaker 1>did not blow it up, per se. They went for

0:29:43.200 --> 0:29:48.400
<v Speaker 1>it again with the veterans. Okay, then players started getting injured,

0:29:48.640 --> 0:29:52.600
<v Speaker 1>you started losing ball games. Then you make a total

0:29:52.800 --> 0:29:56.600
<v Speaker 1>transformation the roster. It begins in the off season after

0:29:56.600 --> 0:29:58.880
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and sixteen, when you go five and eleven,

0:29:59.120 --> 0:30:01.480
<v Speaker 1>and we've seen a lot up bright spots here this year.

0:30:01.680 --> 0:30:03.360
<v Speaker 1>I think Top Bowls has done a lot of good

0:30:03.400 --> 0:30:06.480
<v Speaker 1>things in two thousand seventeen. We will hear from Christopher

0:30:06.520 --> 0:30:09.520
<v Speaker 1>Johnson in the next week or two. Moving on, let's

0:30:09.560 --> 0:30:14.240
<v Speaker 1>go to Ryan in Bayville. Ryan, you're on there. Yeah,

0:30:14.280 --> 0:30:17.080
<v Speaker 1>I was just want to I'm pretty you know, I'm

0:30:17.120 --> 0:30:19.600
<v Speaker 1>happy with the direction we're going, and I think that,

0:30:19.960 --> 0:30:22.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, Bowls has done a pretty good job building

0:30:22.360 --> 0:30:25.400
<v Speaker 1>the team and Macagne building the team, which a lot

0:30:25.440 --> 0:30:28.160
<v Speaker 1>of youth speed getting better. I think we have to

0:30:28.160 --> 0:30:30.280
<v Speaker 1>take the leap of faith kind of like the Eagles did,

0:30:30.360 --> 0:30:32.400
<v Speaker 1>and hope we get it right with the QB because

0:30:32.520 --> 0:30:34.600
<v Speaker 1>I feel we get to QB, I think we're right

0:30:34.640 --> 0:30:38.920
<v Speaker 1>there and we could take over the division. All right, Ryan,

0:30:38.960 --> 0:30:40.920
<v Speaker 1>thanks for your calling. Let's listen. I'll tell you what

0:30:41.000 --> 0:30:43.840
<v Speaker 1>and that's what everybody's searching in the National Football League

0:30:44.360 --> 0:30:46.800
<v Speaker 1>for is the long term answer at quarterback. We'll have

0:30:46.840 --> 0:30:49.800
<v Speaker 1>to find out where the Jets are as far as

0:30:49.920 --> 0:30:54.000
<v Speaker 1>draft order is concerned. Um, Josh McCown played very well

0:30:54.040 --> 0:30:57.160
<v Speaker 1>for this team, starting thirteen games. Bryce Patty, He's had

0:30:57.200 --> 0:31:00.280
<v Speaker 1>his ups and downs in his first two starts. Here,

0:31:00.480 --> 0:31:03.320
<v Speaker 1>a lot of offseason decisions to be made for the

0:31:03.440 --> 0:31:07.680
<v Speaker 1>organization moving forward. But yes, every team wants to have

0:31:07.880 --> 0:31:11.640
<v Speaker 1>that long term answer quarterback. Greens and the Jets are

0:31:11.640 --> 0:31:14.640
<v Speaker 1>no different. They're playing against the team in New England

0:31:14.680 --> 0:31:17.920
<v Speaker 1>who's head the long term answer quarterback for close to

0:31:17.960 --> 0:31:21.160
<v Speaker 1>twenty years now. Well, when you look at any free

0:31:21.160 --> 0:31:24.280
<v Speaker 1>agent or draft opportunity that you have to draft anyone

0:31:24.320 --> 0:31:27.160
<v Speaker 1>or sign anyone at a position, that you may want.

0:31:27.280 --> 0:31:29.959
<v Speaker 1>Is that? So let's talk about quarterback here for a second.

0:31:30.040 --> 0:31:34.640
<v Speaker 1>Is that your free agent options this season are I

0:31:34.640 --> 0:31:37.360
<v Speaker 1>would say somewhat limited if you're talking about long term

0:31:37.400 --> 0:31:39.560
<v Speaker 1>because the main guy that you think of his Kirk Cousins,

0:31:39.560 --> 0:31:41.800
<v Speaker 1>he's in his late twenties. And then you look at

0:31:41.880 --> 0:31:44.520
<v Speaker 1>maybe someone like Alex Smith, but he's thirty four years old.

0:31:44.840 --> 0:31:47.360
<v Speaker 1>So then you look at the draft and how much

0:31:47.760 --> 0:31:50.320
<v Speaker 1>First of all, let's say the Jets are eight or

0:31:50.400 --> 0:31:52.640
<v Speaker 1>seventh in the We're gonna get into this in the

0:31:52.680 --> 0:31:55.640
<v Speaker 1>final segment. That's a tease for you. I'll dive into

0:31:55.640 --> 0:31:57.280
<v Speaker 1>it a little bit and then we'll touch on it

0:31:57.520 --> 0:31:59.560
<v Speaker 1>in the final segment. But here's the thing is that

0:32:00.080 --> 0:32:01.960
<v Speaker 1>if you have to trade up, how much of your

0:32:02.000 --> 0:32:04.959
<v Speaker 1>future are you willing to mortgage to get up and

0:32:05.000 --> 0:32:07.040
<v Speaker 1>get the guy that you think might be the future

0:32:07.080 --> 0:32:09.520
<v Speaker 1>and the franchise quarterback that your team. Well, we're gonna

0:32:09.520 --> 0:32:12.680
<v Speaker 1>discuss the draft here. There's a teaser for you. We'll

0:32:12.720 --> 0:32:15.000
<v Speaker 1>discuss draft a little bit in our next segment, a

0:33:03.440 --> 0:33:05.760
<v Speaker 1>a number of q and as with some players with

0:33:05.880 --> 0:33:09.200
<v Speaker 1>some legends, had a great time. Greens, Uh, what's your

0:33:09.440 --> 0:33:12.240
<v Speaker 1>what's your ping pong game? Like? I think I'm solid?

0:33:12.280 --> 0:33:14.400
<v Speaker 1>Have we played yet? We have not played yet, but

0:33:14.800 --> 0:33:17.479
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be an offseason priority. Okay, we will do that.

0:33:17.560 --> 0:33:20.320
<v Speaker 1>And Chef Marcus at the Complex at the Atlantic Health

0:33:20.400 --> 0:33:24.719
<v Speaker 1>Jets Training Center. He is an avid player in the

0:33:24.800 --> 0:33:27.400
<v Speaker 1>off season. We love Marcus very much, but I'm gonna

0:33:27.440 --> 0:33:31.080
<v Speaker 1>have to take everybody down and grab the belt. Green's

0:33:31.760 --> 0:33:35.280
<v Speaker 1>Jets Patriots this week. Uh, we touched upon it before.

0:33:35.880 --> 0:33:38.680
<v Speaker 1>Jets five and ten, just one and six on the

0:33:38.760 --> 0:33:42.120
<v Speaker 1>road this year, they've been a different team at home. Uh,

0:33:42.200 --> 0:33:44.680
<v Speaker 1>it'd be nice to go out with a good showing

0:33:45.040 --> 0:33:49.600
<v Speaker 1>at Gillette Stadium against the team most people think is

0:33:49.640 --> 0:33:52.960
<v Speaker 1>the a f C favorite to return to the Super Bowl. Well,

0:33:53.000 --> 0:33:54.600
<v Speaker 1>I think you hit the nail right on the head

0:33:54.640 --> 0:33:58.320
<v Speaker 1>and that you want to close out the season at

0:33:58.400 --> 0:34:02.520
<v Speaker 1>least being competitive as actually against a division team, a

0:34:02.680 --> 0:34:05.480
<v Speaker 1>very talented team, a team that is atop of the

0:34:05.560 --> 0:34:09.080
<v Speaker 1>NFL in yards per game. I mean, the Patriots average

0:34:09.080 --> 0:34:12.360
<v Speaker 1>about four hundred yards. Tom Brady, you know the story there,

0:34:12.640 --> 0:34:15.960
<v Speaker 1>Rob Gronkowski, Brandon Cooks. The Patriots have a very good offense,

0:34:15.960 --> 0:34:18.319
<v Speaker 1>there's no doubt. And Dean Lewis just had a career

0:34:18.360 --> 0:34:20.760
<v Speaker 1>game against the buff He's having a career year in general.

0:34:20.920 --> 0:34:23.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean he's had he's had eight hundred plus yards

0:34:23.080 --> 0:34:25.680
<v Speaker 1>on the ground. That's five hundred more than his second

0:34:25.960 --> 0:34:28.600
<v Speaker 1>career hot right, and you met you Cooks him and Grandkowski.

0:34:28.640 --> 0:34:32.160
<v Speaker 1>Gronkowski had an unbelievable one handed touchdown reception against the

0:34:32.160 --> 0:34:36.920
<v Speaker 1>Buffalo Bills. They both have a thousand yards receiving. Of course,

0:34:36.960 --> 0:34:40.960
<v Speaker 1>Brady over four thousand yards passing. But Tom Hanson been

0:34:41.080 --> 0:34:44.560
<v Speaker 1>so terrific lately, as you told me, five consecutive games

0:34:44.600 --> 0:34:47.520
<v Speaker 1>with interceptions, so he has the first time since two

0:34:47.520 --> 0:34:50.719
<v Speaker 1>thousand two that that's happened. So for the Jets to

0:34:50.800 --> 0:34:53.200
<v Speaker 1>be in a position where they got a chance to

0:34:53.200 --> 0:34:56.520
<v Speaker 1>make this a one position, one possession gamers, so they

0:34:56.560 --> 0:34:58.319
<v Speaker 1>need a couple of takeaways. Right. But here's the thing,

0:34:58.480 --> 0:35:01.120
<v Speaker 1>if you're a Jets fan and you looking for silver

0:35:01.200 --> 0:35:03.200
<v Speaker 1>lining or a glimpse of hope or whatever you want

0:35:03.200 --> 0:35:05.560
<v Speaker 1>to call it. In Week six, when the Patriots came

0:35:05.600 --> 0:35:08.520
<v Speaker 1>here to Matlife Stadium, Tom Brady I said this before,

0:35:08.600 --> 0:35:11.560
<v Speaker 1>only completed fifty three percent of his passes. That's the

0:35:11.600 --> 0:35:14.920
<v Speaker 1>second lowest of the season for him. The first was

0:35:15.040 --> 0:35:18.640
<v Speaker 1>Week one, he only completed of his passes. But the

0:35:18.719 --> 0:35:23.279
<v Speaker 1>Jets secondary against the league's premier quarterbacks, has played very well.

0:35:23.360 --> 0:35:27.360
<v Speaker 1>You look at Matt Ryan si Cam Newton thirty percent,

0:35:27.520 --> 0:35:30.040
<v Speaker 1>that was the season low, and then just this past weekend,

0:35:30.040 --> 0:35:34.239
<v Speaker 1>Philip Rivers only completed fifty of his passage, which is

0:35:34.280 --> 0:35:36.799
<v Speaker 1>his second lowest of the season. However, these have all

0:35:36.800 --> 0:35:38.600
<v Speaker 1>been at home. Well, you have to be very encouraged

0:35:38.640 --> 0:35:40.520
<v Speaker 1>by the player of the Jets secondary this year and

0:35:40.560 --> 0:35:43.000
<v Speaker 1>what buster screen talks about those young safeties. You have

0:35:43.080 --> 0:35:47.040
<v Speaker 1>to be awfully excited about Marcus May and Jamal Adams

0:35:47.080 --> 0:35:49.480
<v Speaker 1>patrolling that backfield for yours to come. Well, have to

0:35:49.480 --> 0:35:52.480
<v Speaker 1>see what happens. Was Morris Clayborn. He played well in

0:35:52.520 --> 0:35:55.640
<v Speaker 1>his first year. He's set to become a free agent.

0:35:55.640 --> 0:35:57.319
<v Speaker 1>We'll have to see if the Jets re up. When

0:35:57.320 --> 0:35:59.880
<v Speaker 1>we're not, Let's take a couple more calls here on

0:36:00.080 --> 0:36:02.799
<v Speaker 1>inside the Jets and let's go to Huntington and we're

0:36:02.920 --> 0:36:07.080
<v Speaker 1>eating is on the line. Hey, what's going on? My

0:36:07.160 --> 0:36:09.279
<v Speaker 1>name is Atoms from Hinington. I want to say I

0:36:09.280 --> 0:36:11.520
<v Speaker 1>think Lamar Jackson will end up being the best quarterback

0:36:11.520 --> 0:36:14.600
<v Speaker 1>in this year's class. What do you think? Wow, thanks

0:36:14.600 --> 0:36:16.239
<v Speaker 1>for the call of Dayton that that might be a

0:36:16.239 --> 0:36:19.200
<v Speaker 1>hot take, because Lamar Jackson is one of those interesting

0:36:19.239 --> 0:36:21.960
<v Speaker 1>prospects where well, for me personally, I think it's a

0:36:21.960 --> 0:36:25.800
<v Speaker 1>little too early to evaluate someone like Lamar Jackson because

0:36:26.040 --> 0:36:29.880
<v Speaker 1>remember they have to declare by January. He has to declare,

0:36:29.960 --> 0:36:33.120
<v Speaker 1>and then what you're really looking at is the combine

0:36:33.200 --> 0:36:35.759
<v Speaker 1>in February slash early March. Then you're looking at his

0:36:35.800 --> 0:36:38.520
<v Speaker 1>pro day to see maybe Lamar Jackson wants to play

0:36:38.560 --> 0:36:41.200
<v Speaker 1>something else. Maybe he was advised to play something like

0:36:41.400 --> 0:36:44.440
<v Speaker 1>thank You. I don't think that's the possible. It might

0:36:44.440 --> 0:36:46.520
<v Speaker 1>be a little too early to talk about Lamar Jackson.

0:36:46.560 --> 0:36:50.920
<v Speaker 1>But he's a fantastic athlete. We know obviously kentuck it

0:36:51.000 --> 0:36:55.160
<v Speaker 1>and Ron. He's got dynamic athletic ability. For me, the

0:36:55.280 --> 0:36:58.040
<v Speaker 1>question about Lamar Jackson, whether he comes out this year

0:36:58.200 --> 0:37:01.880
<v Speaker 1>next year, is what is his accuracy? You have to

0:37:01.960 --> 0:37:05.799
<v Speaker 1>be an accurate quarterback in the National Football League. Let's

0:37:05.880 --> 0:37:10.840
<v Speaker 1>keep on moving on and go to Andre in Jersey City,

0:37:12.160 --> 0:37:21.319
<v Speaker 1>Dre Andre going once, I'm going, you're there, Andre? Okay, Hey,

0:37:21.400 --> 0:37:23.399
<v Speaker 1>what's going on? Guys? What's up? I got a question?

0:37:23.440 --> 0:37:25.680
<v Speaker 1>I got a question for you. Can you see the

0:37:25.800 --> 0:37:30.000
<v Speaker 1>Jets um bypassing a quarterback in the first round and

0:37:30.040 --> 0:37:32.680
<v Speaker 1>going with a running back instead, if they're able to

0:37:32.719 --> 0:37:37.400
<v Speaker 1>get someone like Alex Smith of Kirk Cousins. Personally, if

0:37:37.440 --> 0:37:41.160
<v Speaker 1>you're not from the running game, well, Andre. If you're

0:37:41.200 --> 0:37:43.799
<v Speaker 1>signing someone like Kirk Cousins, thank you for the call.

0:37:43.960 --> 0:37:46.880
<v Speaker 1>If you're signing someone like Kirk Cousins, then yeah, I

0:37:46.880 --> 0:37:49.440
<v Speaker 1>could absolutely see the Jets trying to get a running

0:37:49.440 --> 0:37:51.279
<v Speaker 1>back when you look at the prospects, I mean, the

0:37:51.280 --> 0:37:53.560
<v Speaker 1>one that sticks out is se Kwon Barkley out of

0:37:53.600 --> 0:37:56.720
<v Speaker 1>Penn State, and if he's available wherever the Jets are picking,

0:37:56.880 --> 0:37:59.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't see how that couldn't be out of the

0:37:59.640 --> 0:38:03.040
<v Speaker 1>equation Agan just because of his talent, and not to

0:38:03.120 --> 0:38:06.120
<v Speaker 1>mention that in your hypothetical situation, the Jets already locked

0:38:06.200 --> 0:38:08.920
<v Speaker 1>up what they believed to be an answer at quarterback

0:38:08.960 --> 0:38:10.799
<v Speaker 1>at least for two thousand eights. You you really have

0:38:10.880 --> 0:38:12.640
<v Speaker 1>to build through the draft, and the reason why the

0:38:12.719 --> 0:38:15.440
<v Speaker 1>Jets haven't made the playoffs for seven consecutive years. If

0:38:15.560 --> 0:38:19.160
<v Speaker 1>you go back and you go back to Vernon Colston

0:38:19.200 --> 0:38:21.359
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and eight, Mark stus Has two thousand nine,

0:38:21.440 --> 0:38:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Kyle Wilson two thousand ten, um Quentin Corpel's two thousand twelve,

0:38:25.600 --> 0:38:29.080
<v Speaker 1>d Millnard two thousand thirteen, Calvin prior to two thousand fourteen,

0:38:29.840 --> 0:38:33.200
<v Speaker 1>those are not draft picks of this regime. I want

0:38:33.200 --> 0:38:36.040
<v Speaker 1>to say that right now. You can't charge Mike mccagnan

0:38:36.160 --> 0:38:39.359
<v Speaker 1>and Todd Bowles with anything that happened before they got here.

0:38:39.800 --> 0:38:43.560
<v Speaker 1>But you have to build through the draft. And what

0:38:43.640 --> 0:38:47.040
<v Speaker 1>Mike mccagnan has done over the last three years is

0:38:47.480 --> 0:38:50.920
<v Speaker 1>his first draft pick was Leonard Williams number six overall

0:38:51.040 --> 0:38:55.400
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and fifteen. Most recently two thousand seventeen, Jamal

0:38:55.480 --> 0:38:58.719
<v Speaker 1>Adams number six overall. And then a guy who I

0:38:58.760 --> 0:39:02.400
<v Speaker 1>think has taken step in his second professional season, that's

0:39:02.480 --> 0:39:06.439
<v Speaker 1>Darren Lee inside linebacker. Those are guys who are part

0:39:06.560 --> 0:39:09.920
<v Speaker 1>of your foundation. So if you're a Jets fan, you

0:39:10.000 --> 0:39:13.279
<v Speaker 1>can't look back and say, well, what about two thousand eight,

0:39:13.320 --> 0:39:16.919
<v Speaker 1>what about two thou ten? No, you have to look

0:39:16.960 --> 0:39:20.319
<v Speaker 1>at Mike mccagnan and Todd Bowls for the decisions they

0:39:20.360 --> 0:39:24.440
<v Speaker 1>have made while they've been here, and frankly, Mike mccagnan

0:39:24.680 --> 0:39:27.480
<v Speaker 1>has hit on a number of draft picks. We got

0:39:27.560 --> 0:39:29.839
<v Speaker 1>a lot more to come, We got a lot more

0:39:29.880 --> 0:39:31.879
<v Speaker 1>to get to, but we gotta catch your break. We'll

0:39:31.920 --> 0:39:35.040
<v Speaker 1>be right back on Inside the Jets one one nine ESPN.

0:39:35.800 --> 0:39:38.120
<v Speaker 1>Welcome back to Inside the Jets. Eric Allen and Ethan

0:39:38.120 --> 0:39:42.479
<v Speaker 1>Greeber here Vanderbilt Sports and Spirits inside the Windham Hamilton's Park.

0:39:43.160 --> 0:39:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Uh Fantasy Fan Duel Analysis brought to you by Fandel

0:39:47.920 --> 0:39:51.040
<v Speaker 1>have all the fantasy that football has to offer? Be

0:39:51.160 --> 0:39:55.640
<v Speaker 1>sports Rich. Do you have any fantasy pointers for this weekend? Well,

0:39:55.920 --> 0:39:58.600
<v Speaker 1>if you're going by statistics, the Patriots defense is not

0:39:58.800 --> 0:40:02.040
<v Speaker 1>very good twenty nine until total defense twenty nine against

0:40:02.040 --> 0:40:05.360
<v Speaker 1>the past against the rush. So if you have Robby Anderson,

0:40:05.400 --> 0:40:07.960
<v Speaker 1>maybe you turn to someone like him because he's sixty

0:40:07.960 --> 0:40:11.400
<v Speaker 1>one yard shy of breaking a thousand yards, so maybe

0:40:11.440 --> 0:40:13.840
<v Speaker 1>that's on his mind. And not only that, but the

0:40:13.920 --> 0:40:16.280
<v Speaker 1>Jets are averaging a hundred sixty yards on the ground.

0:40:16.400 --> 0:40:20.120
<v Speaker 1>But the problem right over the over the last two weeks,

0:40:20.239 --> 0:40:22.759
<v Speaker 1>let's clarify that, because that would be a great number

0:40:22.800 --> 0:40:25.160
<v Speaker 1>over six. I thought I clarified it before. Thank you

0:40:25.200 --> 0:40:27.200
<v Speaker 1>for doing it for me again. But here's the thing.

0:40:28.200 --> 0:40:30.000
<v Speaker 1>If you know who's gonna have the hot hand, you

0:40:30.080 --> 0:40:32.239
<v Speaker 1>gotta go with him. It's just a question of who

0:40:32.280 --> 0:40:35.479
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be. And last week it was blow yeah,

0:40:35.880 --> 0:40:38.279
<v Speaker 1>b Paul, Yeah, no doubt about it. You know what

0:40:38.360 --> 0:40:42.440
<v Speaker 1>Bill Belichick likes to do to us, take away your

0:40:42.480 --> 0:40:45.560
<v Speaker 1>best weapon. So uh, you know I wouldn't. I would

0:40:45.560 --> 0:40:48.880
<v Speaker 1>anticipate the Patriots trying to load the box and forcing

0:40:48.920 --> 0:40:52.320
<v Speaker 1>Bryce Petty to beat them. Bryce Petty, this means so

0:40:52.440 --> 0:40:54.920
<v Speaker 1>much to him. You can see that in the postgame

0:40:55.239 --> 0:40:58.120
<v Speaker 1>news conference after the Jets were able to only muster

0:40:58.600 --> 0:41:01.680
<v Speaker 1>seven points against the Argers, and he just thought there

0:41:01.680 --> 0:41:04.440
<v Speaker 1>were a number of throws that he left out there

0:41:04.560 --> 0:41:08.719
<v Speaker 1>on the field. And he's a guy who's working, he's

0:41:08.719 --> 0:41:11.480
<v Speaker 1>working his butt off to get this right and uh

0:41:11.680 --> 0:41:15.160
<v Speaker 1>who have another opportunity to showcase his skills against the Patriots.

0:41:15.280 --> 0:41:17.919
<v Speaker 1>The thing what I liked in what Todd Bowle said

0:41:18.400 --> 0:41:20.759
<v Speaker 1>is that, look, it's only a second game starting. He

0:41:20.920 --> 0:41:23.120
<v Speaker 1>has to work through these things. He didn't play the

0:41:23.160 --> 0:41:25.840
<v Speaker 1>first fourteen weeks of the season and then he's thrown

0:41:26.160 --> 0:41:28.120
<v Speaker 1>into the thick of it. So now that he has

0:41:28.400 --> 0:41:31.200
<v Speaker 1>this experience, and remember this is a different offense than

0:41:31.320 --> 0:41:34.600
<v Speaker 1>last season, so it's really his first game experience in

0:41:34.800 --> 0:41:37.920
<v Speaker 1>John Morton's system in the regular season, so he does

0:41:38.000 --> 0:41:40.000
<v Speaker 1>need to work out these kinks. And he said that

0:41:40.120 --> 0:41:43.239
<v Speaker 1>he knows he's seen he's seen the field allows in

0:41:43.320 --> 0:41:45.520
<v Speaker 1>the field well that everything that he talks about his

0:41:45.560 --> 0:41:48.360
<v Speaker 1>footwork and when we hear that, We're like, well, what

0:41:48.440 --> 0:41:52.000
<v Speaker 1>do you really mean by that? It's all timing. Playing quarterback.

0:41:53.000 --> 0:41:56.239
<v Speaker 1>Being successful at this level, the National Football League level

0:41:56.560 --> 0:41:59.560
<v Speaker 1>has is much to do with your feet than anything,

0:41:59.680 --> 0:42:02.600
<v Speaker 1>and the timing of things. Your feet tell you where

0:42:02.680 --> 0:42:05.560
<v Speaker 1>to go. You're here with the first progression, you're here

0:42:05.600 --> 0:42:07.920
<v Speaker 1>with the second, you're here with the third. It's all

0:42:08.000 --> 0:42:11.000
<v Speaker 1>a timing game, and right now Bryce has to get

0:42:11.080 --> 0:42:13.719
<v Speaker 1>that down. The one play that really sticks out to

0:42:13.800 --> 0:42:16.960
<v Speaker 1>me from Sunday's game in regards to timing is Austin

0:42:17.000 --> 0:42:20.840
<v Speaker 1>Sufferi and Jenkins on a play action past starts. He

0:42:21.000 --> 0:42:23.239
<v Speaker 1>he lines up next to Calvin Beacham. Then he comes

0:42:23.280 --> 0:42:25.760
<v Speaker 1>out to the sideline and shoots up and Bryce Petty

0:42:25.920 --> 0:42:28.160
<v Speaker 1>just missed him. He would have had at least probably

0:42:28.200 --> 0:42:30.279
<v Speaker 1>a twenty yard Yeah, and then the fourth and seven

0:42:30.400 --> 0:42:32.320
<v Speaker 1>chests are down fourteen and seven there late in the

0:42:32.400 --> 0:42:34.440
<v Speaker 1>fourth quarters, still in the ball game, even though the

0:42:34.960 --> 0:42:39.280
<v Speaker 1>offense really scuffled throughout that ball game, and Bryce Petty

0:42:39.360 --> 0:42:41.719
<v Speaker 1>thought that he should have had a back shoulder touchdown

0:42:42.080 --> 0:42:44.759
<v Speaker 1>to the eight four mentioned Robby Anderson. How about time

0:42:45.000 --> 0:42:47.719
<v Speaker 1>we got time for a couple of quick calls here,

0:42:47.840 --> 0:42:53.520
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to James and Elizabeth. James, how are you tonight? Hello, Hey, James,

0:42:53.560 --> 0:42:57.120
<v Speaker 1>you're on Hey, thanks for taking my call. Um. The

0:42:57.280 --> 0:43:00.200
<v Speaker 1>issue did I wanted to address has been on my

0:43:00.440 --> 0:43:04.720
<v Speaker 1>heart season after season, and I'm calling this the curse

0:43:04.800 --> 0:43:08.520
<v Speaker 1>of the offensive coordinator to Jets. The only time to

0:43:08.719 --> 0:43:11.799
<v Speaker 1>Jets we're doing something right close to right is when

0:43:11.840 --> 0:43:16.040
<v Speaker 1>we had Rex Ryan and Schottenheimer was the offensive coordinator

0:43:16.520 --> 0:43:20.360
<v Speaker 1>a minute that day, let this guy go. San Sanchez

0:43:20.600 --> 0:43:23.560
<v Speaker 1>was close to being respectable and then he completely fell apart,

0:43:24.080 --> 0:43:28.959
<v Speaker 1>and every other quarterback after that was k cursed and doom. Okay,

0:43:29.880 --> 0:43:33.319
<v Speaker 1>thanks for to called James James, Happy holidays. Listen, Uh,

0:43:33.560 --> 0:43:36.160
<v Speaker 1>what I will tell you. What I will tell you

0:43:36.880 --> 0:43:40.680
<v Speaker 1>about the Jets offensive coordinator is John Morton has had

0:43:40.719 --> 0:43:44.640
<v Speaker 1>a fantastic season. He came in here with Josh McCown,

0:43:45.000 --> 0:43:50.000
<v Speaker 1>a guy thirty eight years old, tenth NFL team, fifteenth year,

0:43:50.239 --> 0:43:56.080
<v Speaker 1>and people weren't expected much. Frankly, passer twenty three touchdowns.

0:43:56.760 --> 0:43:59.640
<v Speaker 1>Uh provided a great presence in the locker room. And

0:43:59.840 --> 0:44:02.560
<v Speaker 1>I love the way that Morton spreads the ball around.

0:44:02.920 --> 0:44:07.200
<v Speaker 1>He also doesn't go far away from the running game. UM,

0:44:07.680 --> 0:44:10.760
<v Speaker 1>and what he's done with this personnel, guys like Robbie

0:44:10.800 --> 0:44:14.080
<v Speaker 1>Anderson his development and Jermaine Curse coming in here nine

0:44:14.200 --> 0:44:17.080
<v Speaker 1>days before the regular season and Austin Safari and Jenkins

0:44:17.160 --> 0:44:20.120
<v Speaker 1>having a career high in terms of receptions and Blo

0:44:20.320 --> 0:44:24.240
<v Speaker 1>Paal having a career here. John Morton was a good higher.

0:44:24.640 --> 0:44:27.000
<v Speaker 1>I think the offense is in good hands and you've

0:44:27.000 --> 0:44:29.520
<v Speaker 1>gotta have some personnel upgrades that's gonna happen in time.

0:44:29.880 --> 0:44:32.120
<v Speaker 1>And also when you speak to everyone on the team,

0:44:32.760 --> 0:44:35.320
<v Speaker 1>is the thing that sticks out is John Morton's system

0:44:35.480 --> 0:44:39.320
<v Speaker 1>is extremely complex. The plays are sentences paragraphs long, so

0:44:39.440 --> 0:44:42.320
<v Speaker 1>it'll take some time to fully implement the system. But

0:44:42.400 --> 0:44:45.560
<v Speaker 1>you talked about it is Jermaine Curse comes here nine

0:44:45.680 --> 0:44:48.120
<v Speaker 1>days before the Jets head up to Orchard Park and

0:44:48.200 --> 0:44:50.200
<v Speaker 1>take on the Bills in Week one, and now he's

0:44:50.239 --> 0:44:52.640
<v Speaker 1>having a career here, and I don't think a lot

0:44:52.719 --> 0:44:55.839
<v Speaker 1>of fans expected that kind of production from him, from

0:44:55.920 --> 0:44:58.359
<v Speaker 1>Robbie Anderson, et cetera. So I think that John Morton

0:44:58.360 --> 0:44:59.960
<v Speaker 1>has been a good higher and then a great job

0:45:00.040 --> 0:45:02.000
<v Speaker 1>this year. Well, we've had a heck of a time

0:45:02.120 --> 0:45:05.239
<v Speaker 1>here tonight at Vanderbilt Sports and Spirits. Thanks everybody, for

0:45:05.600 --> 0:45:09.000
<v Speaker 1>coming out and especially the bust of screen. Also Brittany

0:45:09.000 --> 0:45:10.960
<v Speaker 1>and Justin, thank you so much on the production and
