00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 1: Jonathan Harrison. But the Jets fall to four and ten

10
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,560
Speaker 1: on the season with a twenty nine to twenty two

11
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: loss to the Houston Texans. I don't want to talk

12
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 1: about score right now. I want to lead by talking

13
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 1: about the twenty one year old quarterback who is leading

14
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 1: this offense right now. We're watching him develop in front

15
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 1: of our own eyes. He became the youngest quarterback in

16
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 1: NFL history to lead a game winning drive in Buffalo.

17
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 1: He followed that up against a good Houston Texans defense,

18
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: and you can make the argument that was his best

19
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 1: performance as a pro. Twenty four thirty eight two fifty

20
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: three yards, two touchdowns through the air. He also used

21
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 1: his feet e six rushes thirty five yards and he

22
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 1: earned a lot of praise for that performance. Yeah. I

23
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 1: mean he's he's really grown these last two weeks. You know,

24
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 1: you've seen Sam Donald uh sit back and grow as

25
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: a quarterback. He's being more efficient, he's more precise, that

26
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: he's decisive with his throws, and uh really attacking the

27
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 1: field vertically and which I think is loosening things up

28
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: underneath for him. Uh. I think those those couple of

29
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 1: weeks with the injury, we're a big step for him.

30
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: He was able to sit back, watch Josh McCown or

31
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 1: run things, watch watch how defenses are attacking him. Uh,

32
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: just to understand the small nuances of the game. I

33
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: think it really helped him to step back because he's

34
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 1: come back a different player. To win long term in

35
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 1: the National Football League, you have to have good play

36
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 1: at the quarterback position. This guy has all the tools.

37
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: I've been here since two thousand one. Is a New

38
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 1: York Jets employee. The guy that I think of when

39
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: I watched Donald, not from a plane perspective in terms

40
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,679
Speaker 1: of the way they play their styles, but is Chad Pennington.

41
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,639
Speaker 1: In two thousand two that was his first year starting.

42
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 1: Actually after sitting and watching Vinny Testaverdi for a couple

43
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: of years, Sam Donald has been put into the fire

44
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: here early in his rookie season. We didn't know how

45
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 1: he was going to respond when he went down with

46
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 1: the strained right foot against the Miami Dolphins November four.

47
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: Then he had a month off and he has come

48
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 1: back and like you said, he really benefited from watching

49
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,919
Speaker 1: Josh mccowney. Talked about that today on the conference call.

50
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 1: How a veteran quarterback at thirty nine year old like

51
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: McCown orchestrates the practice, goes through the game week, the preparation,

52
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: and how decisive he was with the reads even though

53
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: the offense really wasn't working very efficiently as far as

54
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 1: how much how many points there were. School warn Eric

55
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,079
Speaker 1: he learned a lot by watching McCollum. Yeah. I mean,

56
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 1: and you can see, you know, from the way he's

57
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 1: he's playing the game, he's making great decisions. He and

58
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 1: Robby Anderson seemed to have reconnected. Uh. He's taking a

59
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 1: lot of shots with him and I think he's gained

60
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 1: some of the he's gained more trust from the coaching

61
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 1: staff because now they're just starting to attack the field vertically.

62
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: They're starting to take more shots. It's not just checkcounts,

63
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: it's not just quick screens. They're opening things up for

64
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: it for Sam and he's proven that he can handle

65
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: the load. You know, leading that that two minute drive

66
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 1: to come back against Buffalo was a huge step. You know,

67
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 1: that's not easy. You know, when you talk about elite quarterbacks,

68
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 1: I always consider listen, it's two minutes left, you need

69
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 1: a touchdown. Does this quarterback strike fearing you? And Sam

70
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: Donald showed that he can be that quarterback that can

71
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 1: lead his team down the field, no matter how far

72
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: it is, no matter what the circumstance, and get a

73
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 1: touchdown for this team. There were three instances against the

74
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: Houston Texans Saturday night where Donald used his feet and

75
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: you were wondering, is he just gonna talk it and

76
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 1: run it. Number one was the touchdown asked to Robbie

77
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: Anderson right before the end of the half. He the

78
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 1: presence of mind to go right up to the line

79
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 1: of scrimmage and then find his crossing receiver for a touchdown.

80
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: Then there were a couple of connections with Chris Herndon

81
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:17,159
Speaker 1: where he rolled left. One time rolled right in other

82
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 1: time and again kept his eyes down the field. That's

83
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: what you see veteran quarterbacks do because you know it

84
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: better than anybody. You as a former guy who played

85
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 1: in the back end. A lot of young quarterbacks who

86
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 1: feel the pressure their eyes go down. His eyes are

87
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 1: staying off, yeah, you know. And that's what's so impressive

88
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 1: about Sam. When I was a rookie, I came into

89
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 1: the league with Ben Roethlisberger, and he was known for

90
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 1: having one read. If if his initial read wasn't open,

91
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: he was gonna tuck it and run. And what Sam

92
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: has done, He's able to scramble, keep the play alive,

93
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,559
Speaker 1: keep his eyes down the field, and it makes things

94
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 1: so difficult for for a guy covering the receivers. You know,

95
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 1: you have to cover the initial route, but then once

96
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: those receivers uncover and things start to just you know,

97
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 1: go go, go off the script, so to speak. It

98
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: makes it very tough, especially with the guy with the

99
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 1: big arm like Sam, who can throw the ball vertically

100
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 1: on the run inside the jets is supported by selective

101
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:13,599
Speaker 1: insurance responses everything. How about some of the designs we're

102
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 1: seeing with Donald Now, there was a play early on

103
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: I believe in the second half where you saw him spin,

104
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,600
Speaker 1: move to his left and then throw a dart to

105
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 1: Robbie Anderson for twenty yards. That's a big time throw. Yeah,

106
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: it is a big time throw. Typically, as a defense,

107
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 1: you're expecting that quarterback to roll out to your left

108
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 1: and to see Sam roll out the opposite way to

109
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,919
Speaker 1: have a design play. Uh, it just speaks to to

110
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 1: what he can do. You know, there's not a lot

111
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 1: of quarterbacks who can throw the ball as accurate as

112
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 1: he does running to his left. It takes a lot

113
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: of skill set. You know. You have to get your

114
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,160
Speaker 1: shoulders across, you have to get your feet set, drive

115
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 1: the ball at the right velocity. And Sam has all

116
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: those tools. And it's exciting to see what he's doing

117
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: right now because he's showing glimpses of being great and

118
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: I think his potential, you know, the sky's the limit.

119
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be a great quarterback in this

120
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 1: league as long as he continues to progress. And that's

121
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,480
Speaker 1: something exciting. If you're a Jets fan, Hi, what does

122
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 1: it mean to you when your peers are talking about

123
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: you the way they did this week? Uh? The week

124
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 1: proceeding in the game. And then after the game when J. J.

125
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 1: Watt goes up to Sam Donald says, you're gonna be

126
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 1: a great player in this league. When Bill O'Brien talks

127
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: about you the way he did, what what does that

128
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: say about the respect he's getting around the National Football League? Now?

129
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,720
Speaker 1: That speaks volumes because they don't have to say that,

130
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 1: They don't have to say anything to him. They can

131
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: tell him good game, keep it moving, talk about what

132
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 1: they did as a team. But for them to take

133
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 1: time out and talk about Sam Donald and his progress

134
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: and how his skill set has continued to grow and

135
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 1: how he's going to be a star. That that goes

136
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 1: that goes far, you know, especially from a guy like J. J. Watt.

137
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 1: You know, he's a three time Defensive Player of the Year, uh,

138
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 1: you know, multiple Pro Bowls and just probably one of

139
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,559
Speaker 1: the best players to play D line in the league

140
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:56,919
Speaker 1: in some time. For him to go out of his

141
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: way and to give praise to Sam Donald, he has

142
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: to be doing something right. Inside the Jets is presented

143
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 1: by e Y Building a Better Working World, Eric Ellen

144
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: and Eric Coleman here at Vanderbilt Sports and Spirits inside

145
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 1: the Windham Hamilton's Park Hotel will be joined by Jonathan

146
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 1: Harrison later tonight. Um he went down fighting too. There

147
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: was a fourth and fifteen play where the Jets had

148
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 1: to have it and again he's scrambling and he threw

149
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: a dart up the Robbie Anderson that was nearly completed. Yeah,

150
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 1: I mean that was an impressive throw, you know, to

151
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 1: throw that ball on the run again, to give Robby

152
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 1: Anderson a chance to make that play and to extend

153
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 1: the drive. If he makes that catch, who knows what

154
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: would have happened. But at the same time, Sam made

155
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: the smart play. He made an accurate pass, and you know,

156
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 1: you would like to have seen Robbie come up with it,

157
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 1: but I understand why he couldn't because that was a

158
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 1: very difficult play. And it seems fool hardy now to

159
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 1: think about. There were some people actually externally, some fans,

160
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 1: and why even put him in there with the Jets offense.

161
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 1: He's gonna get killed out there down the stretch. Look

162
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 1: at what is happening and the way these guys are

163
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: developing because we much and Robbie Anderson, well, they're developing

164
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 1: rhythm and chemistry that they can carry over to two

165
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: thousand nineteen and oh, by the way, number eighty nine,

166
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 1: Chris Hernon, a fourth round pick out of Miami. He's

167
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 1: gonna be a big time player in the National Football League.

168
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 1: And watch that connection between fourteen and eighty nine, not

169
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: only for the final two games and two thousand and eighteen,

170
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: but for years to come. Yeah, I mean Chris Herndon

171
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 1: is leading all rookie tight ends and receiving, you know,

172
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 1: and that just shows that this kid has a lot

173
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: of talent to grow. Uh. He has a great rapport

174
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 1: with with Sam Donald. You know, we had him on

175
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 1: the show earlier in the year and he was talking

176
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 1: about how they were roommates and how there wasn't a

177
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: lot of talking between them, but on the field they

178
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 1: started to understand one another. And I think it takes that,

179
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: you know, taking takes a quarterback getting to know his receivers,

180
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 1: getting to know his tight ends to gain that trust

181
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 1: and and it really is going to be exciting. What

182
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 1: you're watching right now is this team grow. It's a

183
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: young team. They need as many reps as possible. So

184
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:57,679
Speaker 1: why you say, oh, they're not going to the playoffs.

185
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,040
Speaker 1: These reps are aren't valuable. You know, they need to

186
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: get his many reps together to continue to grow, learn

187
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: how to win those close games, learn how to how

188
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,839
Speaker 1: to fight through tough times. I think that's what you're

189
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 1: seeing in this team, and they're getting better for it.

190
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 1: What are you seeing as a guy inside the locker

191
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 1: room when you watch him play? Because I asked Ramain

192
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,080
Speaker 1: Johnson about him after the game and the media scrum,

193
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: he said he's special. Jamal Adams was asked about him

194
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: in the media scrum, he said he's a bad man. Yeah.

195
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 1: I mean listen, as a as a safety in the NFL,

196
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. There's weeks where you go into

197
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: the defensive back meetings, you watch film on the quarterback,

198
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 1: and everybody as a group says, listen this week at

199
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 1: this quarterback goes over a hundred fifty yards. Everybody in

200
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: here is getting fined. There are times where you look

201
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 1: at quarterbacks and you just see that they can't get

202
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 1: it done with Sam Donald. This guy, I'm telling you,

203
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 1: he strikes fear in the defense. He makes it so

204
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,679
Speaker 1: you have to respect every every route run, um, every

205
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:54,200
Speaker 1: time he gets out of the pocket. You have to

206
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: play it from the top down and respect what he

207
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: can do. As a player. Yes, at the beginning of

208
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 1: the season, he was one into a couple of mistakes,

209
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 1: but he's learned from his mistakes and he every week

210
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,559
Speaker 1: you're seeing him continue to get better. And that's that's

211
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 1: saying a lot for a rookie who started every game.

212
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 1: And the Jets have a lot of financial flexibility in

213
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,199
Speaker 1: the off season to add some more pieces around Sam

214
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 1: Thornald and we'll see how they address those moves in

215
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: the spring. But in the meantime, they had two games

216
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 1: to play. This is their final home game this weekend.

217
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 1: As Aaron Rodgers comes to town. What do you think

218
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:29,839
Speaker 1: that's gonna be like for the rookie quarterback when he

219
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: stares across the sideline and sees one of the best

220
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 1: who's ever played the game. And it's funny. People in

221
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,080
Speaker 1: Green Bear saying Aaron Rodgers are struggling this season. Well,

222
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: I'd like to struggle with those kind of numbers completing

223
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,559
Speaker 1: about his passes. But he's got twenty three touchdowns in

224
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 1: two interceptions. Yeah, I mean, he's playing lights out. He

225
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 1: doesn't have the talent that he used to have, you know,

226
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: back in the day, but Aaron Rodgers is very dangerous.

227
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: You know I faced him in Atlanta in the playoffs

228
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 1: when you know we were were division chaps. We had

229
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 1: the first round by they were a wild, hard team.

230
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers caught fired. They ran through the league and

231
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl. So he can catch fire at anytime.

232
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 1: But for Sam Donald to sit and watch on the

233
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: other side of the sideline and see a guy like

234
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, I'm sure it has to get him excited.

235
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 1: He probably grew up watching him throughout high school through

236
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 1: college as one of those great quarterbacks. Probably molded a

237
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:21,839
Speaker 1: little bit of his game after him because he does

238
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:23,720
Speaker 1: throw a well on the run, just like Sam does.

239
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 1: And it's it's probably gonna get those competitive uses going,

240
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 1: because if you can outplay Sam Donald, you're doing it right. Yeah.

241
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:36,079
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, Yeah, both California kids, And obviously Sam Donald

242
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 1: watched a lot of Aaron Rodgers coming up. But oh,

243
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 1: by the way, look at what happened Aaron Rodgers. He

244
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: sat behind Brett Farv for a couple of seasons. Again,

245
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 1: Donald's coming in at He's seen a lot of things.

246
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 1: He's progressing in front of our eyes. There is reason

247
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,839
Speaker 1: to be excited. Nobody in the organizations happy about the

248
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 1: four and ten record, nor should they be, But it

249
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,680
Speaker 1: looks like you found your long term answer at the

250
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 1: most important position and professional sports. Yeah, you know when

251
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: when Sam, when you when you start him from week one,

252
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 1: you understand that you're gonna go through your lumps as

253
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,080
Speaker 1: a team. You know they're gonna be some good days

254
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 1: and some bad days. But at the same time, are

255
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 1: you continuing to get better as a team? You know,

256
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,439
Speaker 1: I think you're seeing it on the defense. They're playing

257
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,320
Speaker 1: great football. Uh. You see it offensively, starting to find

258
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 1: their identity running the football, throwing play action, taking shots

259
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 1: down the field, starting to find out who we are

260
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 1: as a team. And that's great to see because, Uh,

261
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 1: a lot of young players, a lot of youth, a

262
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,559
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of free agent money to spend

263
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 1: and add additions to this team. And I think it's

264
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 1: gonna be a good thing. Um, let's flip to the

265
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 1: defensive side of the ball real quick. Uh. The good

266
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 1: in the bed, the pass rush. Uh, the Jets really

267
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 1: brought it against DeShawn Watson. We thought they might be

268
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: able to exploit the Texans offensive line, and they sure did. Uh.

269
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 1: The week before Deshaun Watson sacked five times. When any

270
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,959
Speaker 1: any Indianapolis colts again in the New York Jets, he

271
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 1: sacked six times. And Henry Anderson, who you got for

272
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:09,319
Speaker 1: a seventh round pick on draft weekend, picks up three

273
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 1: sacks and now he has six on the two thousand

274
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 1: eighteen season. Yeah, I mean, and I was excited to

275
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 1: watch Henry get after Deshaun Watson. And when he was

276
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: on the show, he was talking about how he's just

277
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 1: now learning how to pass rush. He's learning the techniques,

278
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 1: he's getting his bag of goods, bag of tricks ready

279
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 1: for for the pass rush. You're starting to see a

280
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,199
Speaker 1: show on the field. He's mixing things up. He's always

281
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,440
Speaker 1: had a great motor. He's always been strong at the

282
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,559
Speaker 1: point of attack. But now he's starting to to to

283
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: use his his different moves and it's great to see

284
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,040
Speaker 1: because he's taking some of the pressure off of Leonard Williams,

285
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 1: He's taking some of the pressure off McClinton and uh

286
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 1: and this defensive line can be good, you know, if

287
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,080
Speaker 1: they continue to grow like this and these guys start

288
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,439
Speaker 1: to make plays that he designed. Jordan Jenkins, because you

289
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 1: got a sack against the Texans and you increased your

290
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:58,319
Speaker 1: team lead to seven, but Henry Anderson is right behind

291
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 1: you with six. So that's gonna be an interesting battle

292
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: to watch the sack race inside the Jets locker room.

293
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 1: But DeAndre Hopkins, he got off against the Jets. Uh,

294
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 1: Todd Bowl set it on Sunday that listen, we didn't

295
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 1: want to move corner across the field in this case,

296
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 1: probably Tremaine Johnson because the Texans move DeAndre Hopkins all

297
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 1: over the place. Yeah, you know, it's tough to to

298
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 1: match up a receiver with a corner with the receiver

299
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 1: because one you give up your disguise. You know, if

300
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 1: if DeAndre Hopkins is lined up in the slot and

301
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 1: Tremaine Johnson follows him in the slot, guess what they know?

302
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: You're playing man to man. Uh, you know, it depends

303
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 1: on wherever he goes, you know. And plus I think

304
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: Chris Morris Clayborne has a tremendous skill set. You know,

305
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: there's a couple of plays that Hopkins made where I

306
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 1: don't care who you are at corner, he was making

307
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 1: the catch and that's what kind of He's an unbelievable

308
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 1: ball player. We're often running here on inside the Jets.

Speaker 1: three man rush, looks left, fires left, ends up for Roberts.

Speaker 1: Vanderbilt Sports and Series Spirits inside and Windham Hamilton's Park

318
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 1: Hotel um E. What is in store for Sam Donald

319
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 1: this weekend against the Packers in terms of uh, Mike

320
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 1: Petton led defense. This is a pupil of Rex Ryan

321
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: and Petton was here for a number of years as well. Yeah. Well,

322
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: you know you're gonna see a lot of pressures. And

323
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 1: I think that's a good thing. I think Sam he

324
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 1: excels when team's pressure room. You know, it makes things.

325
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 1: I think it simplifies things for him. He's athletic enough

326
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 1: to break the pocket whenever he does get that pressure,

327
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 1: and that's when you see him improvising. When you can

328
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 1: see that pressure, so it's gonna be a good matchup

329
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 1: for him. I like, you know, the matchups with Robby

330
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 1: Haderson on the perimeter. I like the matchups at the

331
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 1: skill positions. And I think there are some weaknesses that

332
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 1: the Jets can expose. I was talking to Bart Scott

333
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:25,440
Speaker 1: about this today and he said that, hey, put a

334
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: lot of screens into the game plan this week, and

335
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 1: that's this defense. Why would that be effective? Well, you

336
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 1: know when when the team pressures a lot when they blitz,

337
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 1: there's not a lot of help. You know that when

338
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 1: when you're in the all out blitz, the corners the

339
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 1: safeties have to play from eight nine yards off just

340
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 1: because they don't have any help. So that sets up

341
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 1: a screen very well. Well, if you can get a

342
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,240
Speaker 1: hat on the hat on the screen, you have an

343
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 1: opportunity to have a lot of big plays. When you

344
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 1: match up a screen versus all out blitz, you anticipate

345
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 1: some cloud formations where the defense is that it looks

346
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 1: like they're just standing up and everybody like and we've

347
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: seen this from Rext and Putting before, where you don't

348
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 1: know how to identify times or it might confuse you

349
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,400
Speaker 1: a little bit because of what they're what they're doing

350
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 1: up front. Yeah, you know, we did that as well

351
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 1: with with Mangini. And the great thing about that is

352
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 1: sometimes when you bring all out blitz from that look

353
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: or you back out into his own you can confuse

354
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 1: the quarterback. But the negative side is if that offensive

355
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,159
Speaker 1: line points out the center of the of the of

356
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,199
Speaker 1: the blitz and they're able to pick it up, you

357
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: expose yourself to some big place. So you know, I

358
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,080
Speaker 1: don't expect to see a lot of it, because again

359
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 1: the Jets have shown they will take a deep shot,

360
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 1: they will take throw the ball down the field, and

361
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:37,919
Speaker 1: if they do that and hit the Packers a few times,

362
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 1: that will get them out of that defense. Quick. What

363
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 1: do you expect from the Packers now five eight and one,

364
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 1: this is unfamiliar territory and they let Mike McCarthy go

365
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 1: in season. Joe Philbin right now the interim head coach.

366
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:52,879
Speaker 1: They just lost the games the Chicago Bears. The Bears

367
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,639
Speaker 1: just clinched the NFC North. So uh, it's gonna be

368
00:17:56,840 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 1: a very interesting how this Packers team comes out over

369
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 1: these final two games. Yeah, I mean they should be motivated.

370
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 1: You know the fact that the organization fired their head

371
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,360
Speaker 1: coach shows them that you aren't playing well, we will

372
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,160
Speaker 1: get rid of you. So guys are gonna be playing

373
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 1: for their jobs. It's gonna I expect some trick plays.

374
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 1: I expect them to leave no stone unturned trying to

375
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: defeat the Jets. You know, you may see an onside kick,

376
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,600
Speaker 1: you may see some gadget plays, but you are gonna

377
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 1: get their best effort. You're gonna see their You're gonna

378
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:25,880
Speaker 1: get their best punch early if they if the Jets

379
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 1: can weather that storm, then they're gonna be fine. They're

380
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 1: gonna be if they can continue to run the ball,

381
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:32,879
Speaker 1: stick to the run, hit the open receivers in the

382
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,399
Speaker 1: passing game. I think things will be good because this

383
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 1: defense matchup wise, can cover the receivers of the Packers. Okay,

384
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,920
Speaker 1: we'll get in the matchup more in a second. UH

385
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:46,719
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl rosters will be released Tuesday night. Is second

386
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:50,880
Speaker 1: year safety Jamal Adams deserving of the NOD this year.

387
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:54,159
Speaker 1: Absolutely absolutely. When you when you watch Jamal play, when

388
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 1: you watch the Jets defense play, he's playing at another

389
00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 1: level then everyone on the field and both defenses. Uh,

390
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,639
Speaker 1: you know, he plays a high intensity. He plays the

391
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:03,959
Speaker 1: game the right way. He makes great tackles, he's been

392
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,439
Speaker 1: getting after the quarterback. He's really doing it all as

393
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,640
Speaker 1: a safety. Everything you could ask for in the safety

394
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 1: Jamal is doing it. He's leading the team. Uh. And

395
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:13,880
Speaker 1: I think he is a special player and and one

396
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 1: of those one of those guys that that no matter

397
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 1: what team you're watching, you're gonna notice thirty three on

398
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: the field. So I definitely think that he deserves the

399
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,440
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl nod. If not, I understand why the team

400
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 1: hasn't been winning. You know, typically these these awards go

401
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:29,880
Speaker 1: to teams that are successful and they're having winning seasons.

402
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:31,880
Speaker 1: But he's gonna be a Pro Bowler for a very

403
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 1: long time playing the way he does. As a guy

404
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 1: who played the position in the National Football League, what

405
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 1: stands out to you most athletically about what he can

406
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,399
Speaker 1: do on the field, Well, you know, he's he's he

407
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,240
Speaker 1: has it all. You know, he's a he's a very

408
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:48,920
Speaker 1: physical safety, but he can cover, he can support in

409
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 1: the run game. He's an excellent blitzer. Um. He makes

410
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,160
Speaker 1: great open field tackles and when the tough part about

411
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: the open field tackle, the enemy of any tackle is space,

412
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 1: and Jamal closes space than any safety that I've seen

413
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 1: in a long time. You know, it's seldom that you

414
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 1: see him get shook in the middle of the field.

415
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 1: And if he does miss the tackle, guess what that

416
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,440
Speaker 1: runner is going back to the cavalry, where that defensive

417
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 1: line is coming, where the linebackers are coming from. And

418
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 1: you seldom see him give up a big play. He's

419
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:19,160
Speaker 1: so wonderfully gifted. But where does the NonStop motor come from?

420
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 1: They think, because even in the facility, he never stops talking,

421
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 1: he never stops moving. It's always go and people sometimes

422
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 1: you're wondering, what is this fabricated? No, this this is

423
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 1: who the guy is. Yeah, T T G. He's trained

424
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 1: to go. You know that that's a guy who you know,

425
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 1: you can tell he takes this game very seriously. You know,

426
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,640
Speaker 1: it's it's more than than about the money. It's it's

427
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 1: more than than a lot of the material things that

428
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,359
Speaker 1: come with this game. Jamal plays the game like he

429
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 1: loves it. You know, he has a passion for it.

430
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 1: He bleeds it, and you can tell by the way

431
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 1: he plays. He didn't have to say anything about his

432
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,119
Speaker 1: feelings towards a game. You can see it when you

433
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 1: turn on that tape. He's high intensity, he cares. You

434
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 1: can see him holding his teammates accountable when they make mistakes.

435
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 1: You can see him pray us in him great leader,

436
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:03,640
Speaker 1: and he definitely leaves by example. He took a lot

437
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 1: of pride entering this season about his coverage ability because

438
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:11,359
Speaker 1: there are a few plays that happened as rookie season

439
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,119
Speaker 1: where maybe he was an inch off or maybe a

440
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 1: Gronkowski made a catch right over him. He went into

441
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 1: this season, I think on a mission to say I

442
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 1: can cover, I can I can play in the back end.

443
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 1: Because he talked after the New England game, when again

444
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 1: he neutralized Gronkowski for a second consecutive game, he said that,

445
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,919
Speaker 1: you know, people aren't respecting me out here, you know,

446
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: and like he took a personal yeah, as he should.

447
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,719
Speaker 1: You know, he's a privaful player. He takes his game serious.

448
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: And I love that he came out and played particularly

449
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,360
Speaker 1: well against Gronkowski. I matched up that that they were

450
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: exposing last last year as a rookie. You know, as

451
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:52,879
Speaker 1: a rookie, you see a lot of things that you

452
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 1: that you've never seen before. The different wrinkles and routes. Uh,

453
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,640
Speaker 1: the coverage is different. You can't contact the receivers down

454
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,160
Speaker 1: the field, and these big, strong tight ends that can run,

455
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 1: they can expose you a little bit. And I think

456
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 1: it took that year to to make Jamal focus on

457
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,879
Speaker 1: his cover skills. I think he's a better player because

458
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 1: of it. And uh and he's going to continue to

459
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,399
Speaker 1: grow from all of his weaknesses this year. Okay, so

460
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 1: all the guys say, and this is the coaching term,

461
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,680
Speaker 1: his eyes are better. What does that mean? Well, as

462
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 1: a safety, you know, there's a rule you can if

463
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 1: you see too much, then you see nothing. You have

464
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 1: to focus on your your particular keys and that will

465
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 1: take you to the ball every time. You know, as

466
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 1: the middle of the field safety, you know, I'm looking

467
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 1: at the uncovered lineman, you know, to get my run

468
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,959
Speaker 1: pass read initially, then you have to look at your threats,

469
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 1: your vertical threats, and those things kind of take you

470
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,679
Speaker 1: to those plays. That was one thing that helped me

471
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 1: play as many years as I did because I wasn't

472
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 1: the biggest, I wasn't the fastest, but I could read

473
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 1: my keys. I had good eyes and then enabled me

474
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,840
Speaker 1: to get to the play. Jamal being a superior player,

475
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 1: being a great athlete with those great with that great eye, discipline,

476
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 1: sky's a limit. He seems to be naturally strong too.

477
00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:59,400
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he doesn't put it in the work

478
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 1: and the way him, but you just mentioned it. He's

479
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 1: such a sure tackler and when he hits people, he

480
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 1: makes him feel it. Yeah. He he has a great

481
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,639
Speaker 1: uh six in punch, you know. That's that's what we

482
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: call it is when you get up to that ball

483
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 1: carrier and you roll your hips through the player. You

484
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,600
Speaker 1: can't teach that. That's something that's natural. That's something that

485
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 1: that he was born with. He he takes space well

486
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 1: and once he gets to the point of contact, he

487
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: rolls those hips and explodes through every tackle. And that's

488
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:26,360
Speaker 1: what makes it fun to see. You know, every once

489
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,360
Speaker 1: in a while he may miss one, but nine times

490
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: out of ten he's gonna make that ball carrier pay.

491
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 1: So the hope is from a jet perspective, that you

492
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 1: get Marcus May back next year. He was just limited

493
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,640
Speaker 1: to six games in two thousand and eighteen. Because he's

494
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,920
Speaker 1: a guy who I think can really flourish with Adams

495
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 1: and we should not forget about him when we're thinking

496
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 1: about the future of this Jets team. Yeah, he's that.

497
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,439
Speaker 1: He's that solid player that you can depend on to

498
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 1: be in the middle of the field, to be in

499
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,439
Speaker 1: the right place to cover that post, to make that

500
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,159
Speaker 1: open field tackle. You know, when I look at Jamal

501
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,639
Speaker 1: that Marcus May, I get a little bit glimpse of

502
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 1: Troy Paulamalu and Ryan Clark. Ryan Clark is a sure

503
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,240
Speaker 1: tackler who's always gonna be where he's supposed to be

504
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:09,159
Speaker 1: make those open field tackles. Troy Paulamalo is gonna be

505
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,440
Speaker 1: all over the field making splash plays. That's what I

506
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 1: see out of Jamal. Well, how much freedom does the

507
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 1: coaching staff give Jamal, like you said, because in Pittsburgh,

508
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 1: I remember we go there and sometimes you'd wonder how

509
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 1: much was Troy going within the game plan and how

510
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,479
Speaker 1: much was paula Mala just doing his deal? And we're

511
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 1: gonna cover for what he does because he's such a

512
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,920
Speaker 1: great player. Yeah, well, Troy, Troy circumstances different than any

513
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,720
Speaker 1: other safety that I've ever seen. You know, I played

514
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 1: against Troy Polamala when I was I was a true

515
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,919
Speaker 1: freshman in college and there was a time where he

516
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 1: was at SC he was moving around. He lined up

517
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 1: at nose tackle and actually rushed the passer and there

518
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 1: was nobody in the middle of the field, but they

519
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,040
Speaker 1: got through the down. He's one of those players that

520
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,120
Speaker 1: that's special. I don't think Jamal has that much freedom.

521
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 1: I don't think he needs that much freedom. He's just

522
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: he makes big plays within the defense and that's what's important.

523
00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:58,879
Speaker 1: But do you give him more freedom because he is

524
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,119
Speaker 1: a freak athlete and he's such a productive player for you,

525
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,199
Speaker 1: and he can do more things than other people in

526
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:06,920
Speaker 1: the football. Yeah, he does. He can do more. And

527
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:08,679
Speaker 1: you can tell that he studies a film, so if

528
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:10,960
Speaker 1: he's going to break on something, it's because he saw

529
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 1: a tendency in that film. Study is because they gave

530
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 1: up a play or that they showed their hand in

531
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:17,879
Speaker 1: a play where he's going to make the play. I

532
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 1: think the more he plays, the more he gets experienced,

533
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 1: the more you give him freedom. You know, he's got

534
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,439
Speaker 1: to be pumped up about this one because it's Aaron

535
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,600
Speaker 1: Rodgers coming. Yeah, you know, yeah, but he plays Tom

536
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 1: Brady twice a year and he's gotten his feet wet

537
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 1: with him now. But Aaron Rodgers another one that he

538
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: can check off. The list. Yeah, when when you're when

539
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 1: you're a great player, you want to play against the

540
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,680
Speaker 1: best and see how you match up with the best players.

541
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 1: Playing against Tom Brady, playing against Aaron Rodgers, you get

542
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 1: to see where you are as a player. You know,

543
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,119
Speaker 1: if you can make some plays against Aaron Rodgers, if

544
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 1: you can limit him to to you know, not going

545
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 1: off and throwing a bunch of touchdowns, then it shows

546
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,159
Speaker 1: you that you are a very good player. And I

547
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 1: think the best players want to play against those best competitions.

548
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,640
Speaker 1: So the Pro Bowl rosters will be revealed tomorrow night.

549
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,439
Speaker 1: We'll see if Jamal Adams gets the NOD for the

550
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,440
Speaker 1: first time in his NFL career. I want to anticipate

551
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,119
Speaker 1: he'll be going to the NFL Pro Bowl a number

552
00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 1: of times throughout his career. I think Jason Myers, who

553
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 1: had a tough night the other night, missing a couple

554
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,959
Speaker 1: of extra points, but he has had a great season

555
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,480
Speaker 1: as worthy as well. And Andre Roberts has had the

556
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 1: best return season anybody in the National Football League bar not.

557
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:30,400
Speaker 1: We will be right back after this. On Inside the Jets,

558
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 1: Darnald of the Shotgun takes the snap, drops back, looks

559
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,359
Speaker 1: right scrambles, gets to the five yard blond pop passed

560
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 1: back at the end zone that's caught for a Jet

561
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:43,880
Speaker 1: touchdown by Robbie Anderson. Sam Darnald improvising in the pocket

562
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 1: a little chump pass to Robbie Anderson. Thirty seconds to

563
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 1: go before halftime and the Jets have their first touchdown

564
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 1: of the night. Welcome back to Inside the Jets. We

565
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,639
Speaker 1: are broadcasting live from Vanderbilt Sports and Spirits inside the

566
00:26:56,680 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 1: Windham Hamilton Hamilton's Park Hotel. Eric Allen alongside Eric Coleman,

567
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,199
Speaker 1: and we talked a little bit about it earlier in

568
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 1: the show about the Jets decision to play size against

569
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:12,280
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins, who you couldn't make the argument right now

570
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:15,199
Speaker 1: that Hopkins is as good as any receiver in the

571
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 1: National Football League. But this week they have a decision

572
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,960
Speaker 1: to make with Davante Adams because he is Aaron Rodgers

573
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:26,359
Speaker 1: number one target. He all already hit thirt dred yards receiving.

574
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 1: Do you do the same thing or do you consider

575
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,680
Speaker 1: moving because maybe Green Bay plays him to a certain

576
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 1: side and doesn't move him as much as DeAndre Hopkins.

577
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:38,120
Speaker 1: I don't know. I haven't looked at the game film

578
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,440
Speaker 1: it just yet. Yeah, you know, uh, he's a great player,

579
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 1: Davante Adams and you know he's a very good player.

580
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 1: And Aaron Rodgers, you know, makes receivers I think a

581
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 1: little better than that they are just because of his

582
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,200
Speaker 1: skill set. I don't think he's of the caliber of

583
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,120
Speaker 1: the DeAndre yea so so I think the Jets will

584
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 1: play it true. You know, Tremaine Johnson and Moclaymore are

585
00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:00,160
Speaker 1: are more than capable of covering receivers. Yes, I when

586
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 1: you play a guy like DeAndre Hopkins, he's gonna get

587
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:04,679
Speaker 1: his He's gonna get you know, his close to a

588
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 1: hundred yards and you just have to contain him and

589
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 1: limit try to limit everybody else, which I think that

590
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,240
Speaker 1: Jets did a pretty good job of. When it comes

591
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,640
Speaker 1: to Davante Adams, I think I think these corners more Claiborn,

592
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 1: Tremaine Johnson, buster, if he's in the slot, can can

593
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 1: hold him down. Let's talk about the holding car Moul Claiborne.

594
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 1: A lot was discussed about that after the game. That

595
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:30,200
Speaker 1: was the eventual game winning drive for the Houston Texans

596
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 1: where they cashed in with the DeAndre Hopkins touchdown. But

597
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: is the third down play, the Shawn Watson throws it

598
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 1: up and threw the ball out of bounds. There was

599
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 1: some hand fighting more Claiborne called for holding. I didn't

600
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,479
Speaker 1: see it. I don't like it. You know. Obviously, I'm

601
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 1: a defensive back, so I'm gonna fight a lot of plays.

602
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 1: But there has to be a point where you have

603
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:54,960
Speaker 1: to be able to keep your ground. If he hits me,

604
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,520
Speaker 1: I can hit you back, just to maintain your position.

605
00:28:57,760 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 1: And for them to call that play at that junction

606
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 1: of the game, you have to have it, just like

607
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: you guys on the field when you were a player.

608
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,160
Speaker 1: I think you have to have a feel for the game.

609
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 1: And I know these guys have tough jobs. I just

610
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 1: thought that was a tough point of the ball. You're

611
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 1: gonna call that. If you're gonna call it, then why

612
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 1: not call the sent the tone early and let let

613
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 1: the corners know we're gonna call those plays. We're gonna

614
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,520
Speaker 1: call those Tiki tech fouls. You see it in basketball

615
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 1: all the time when when the referees to be in

616
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 1: the game, all right, we're gonna blow those. You know,

617
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,200
Speaker 1: we're gonna blow the whistle on that one that didn't happen.

618
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 1: All game and then all of a sudden it's a

619
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 1: it's a third down to five at a crucial point

620
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:34,720
Speaker 1: in the game. And you told the fact, it's a

621
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,960
Speaker 1: tough call. And d Hop is a physical receiver himself,

622
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:41,080
Speaker 1: so a lot of times when he's running routes, it's

623
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 1: not just him receiving contact, he's dishiving, right, Yeah, a

624
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 1: lot of looks. I mean, they're pushing off, they're grabbing jerseys,

625
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 1: they're trying to do whatever they can to get their leverage,

626
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,920
Speaker 1: to get the advantage. And for a defensive back who's

627
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 1: already at the disadvantage playing backwards, running backwards, reacting off

628
00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 1: the receiver, you know, it's it makes it very difficult

629
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 1: to play that because Asian and you know, you kind

630
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 1: of feel for the corners nowadays. You know, they definitely

631
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 1: earned their money out there playing that position. Is there

632
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:09,160
Speaker 1: anything you can do differently inside the red zone the

633
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 1: game when he touched Morris Claiborne hits remendous coverage, do

634
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:16,240
Speaker 1: you try to scheme it up differently in terms they

635
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,320
Speaker 1: have making sure that you got a safety over or

636
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 1: it's it's tough, you know, because I mean you could

637
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 1: say that, you know, let's double team him down there.

638
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 1: But then you leave the middle of the field wide over.

639
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,600
Speaker 1: You know, then you leave you're susceptible to Watson and

640
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 1: running the football, extending the plays. I thought Mo claiborne

641
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 1: played that textbook, you know, I watched it from the beginning.

642
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 1: His technique from from that press coverage. He shadowed him,

643
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 1: got hands on him, was running with him, was in

644
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 1: perfect phase. DeAndre Hopkins just as a big boy, you know.

645
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 1: And they call that theft ball, you know. And DeAndre

646
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:47,520
Speaker 1: Hopkins has such strong hands and he's such a great

647
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 1: athlete that that he's gonna make those plays more than

648
00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,760
Speaker 1: fifty percent of the time. How is Aaron Rodgers gonna

649
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 1: put stress on the defense? He put stress on the

650
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 1: defense similar to what Sam is doing. That he can

651
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 1: break the once the initial players oken. He improvises probably

652
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: the best out of any quarterback in the league. You know,

653
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 1: when he gets out of the pocket, he's not just

654
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 1: throwing deep comebacks. He's not throwing crossing routes. He can

655
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,480
Speaker 1: throw go routes. He can throw post routes while on

656
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 1: the run. Because he has such a big arm, he

657
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 1: is limited a little bit with that knee injury that's

658
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 1: been nagging him all season. But Aaron Rodgers has a

659
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 1: huge arm, He's very confident, and he has that he

660
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 1: has that that cockiness where he's gonna throw and try

661
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,240
Speaker 1: to get into a side space. So we talked about

662
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 1: Jamal for a long time tonight. What do the Jets

663
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 1: safeties have to do against a guy like a rod

664
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 1: Because Darryl Roberts went out with a sprain toe against

665
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,600
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans, we'll have to see about his availability

666
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:40,520
Speaker 1: later in the week. That was run test mile, so

667
00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 1: he's finishing the game for the Jets. But um, what

668
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,040
Speaker 1: do they have to do? What are the points of

669
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 1: emphasis against a guy like that? Because he's so athletic

670
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 1: and he can make any throw. Uh, one of the

671
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,760
Speaker 1: most unique players we've ever seen. Yeah, you know, in

672
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 1: my opinion, you have to play things from the top down.

673
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,640
Speaker 1: Can't give up big plays to and Rodgers. You have

674
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 1: to make him beat you methodically down the field because

675
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 1: as great as he is, he does make mistakes and

676
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,239
Speaker 1: he'll throw you a few if given the opportunity. So

677
00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 1: you have to play him from top down, don't give

678
00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 1: up the big plays, allow him to throw those those

679
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 1: short ones. Make the tackle. You know, the Green Bay

680
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 1: offense has been you know, based on catching run, catching

681
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 1: run for all these years, Randall cob Jordy Nelson, catching

682
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 1: slant routes and running. If they can tackle well in

683
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,400
Speaker 1: the open field, limit the big plays. I think that's

684
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 1: the game plan for the jett But do you think

685
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 1: he's taking the less shots in the past, because, like

686
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 1: we muched before, guy is only three interceptions. Yeah, he's

687
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 1: definitely uh, you know, not taking as many chances as

688
00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:40,880
Speaker 1: he did in the past. And I think that's because

689
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 1: his confidence in his receivers. You know, he doesn't have

690
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,600
Speaker 1: a full confidence in the whole crew. You know. Before

691
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 1: you know, he had a you didn't know these guys

692
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,440
Speaker 1: a couple of years back. But then Jordy Nelson started

693
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 1: to develop, Randall Cobbs started to develop, and you started

694
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 1: seeing these players great EXCUMEI Jennings started to develop. He

695
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 1: how don't think he has that rapport, you know, and

696
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 1: I think he's a little nervous with the injuries he's had.

697
00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 1: He doesn't want to take the shots like he did

698
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 1: in the past, and so you're not seeing them take

699
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,960
Speaker 1: as many chances as he used to. What does it

700
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,120
Speaker 1: mean to you as a player, the final home game

701
00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:14,479
Speaker 1: in the season, and and and and wanting to go

702
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 1: out on a high note in front of the home

703
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:20,280
Speaker 1: faithful as a guy who was in that position, like

704
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 1: a lot of those guys who are gonna exit the

705
00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 1: tunnel of that life this weekend, well it means a lot, because,

706
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:26,560
Speaker 1: first of all, you want to reward your fans for

707
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:29,720
Speaker 1: their dedication, for for coming through the tough weather, sticking

708
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,400
Speaker 1: sticking with you through thick and thin. Uh. And you

709
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 1: always want to go into the off season on a

710
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,520
Speaker 1: positive note, you know, leaving leaving a good taste in

711
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 1: your fans mouth, leaving a good taste in your mouth.

712
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 1: You know you you gained that momentum going into the

713
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 1: off season, and it gives you something to work for.

714
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,560
Speaker 1: You know, yes, you know we want our last two games.

715
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 1: You know we we have the momentum. You know, if

716
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,760
Speaker 1: we can just continue to put that together not beat ourselves,

717
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 1: who knows what happens then the off season you go

718
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:53,560
Speaker 1: with your goals. You know you you you play smart football.

719
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 1: You don't beat yourself. You know you make big play

720
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 1: and you and you have something to work on going

721
00:33:57,760 --> 00:33:59,800
Speaker 1: into the off season. So I think it's very important

722
00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 1: that the Jets in their in their season at home

723
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,560
Speaker 1: on a high note. Inside the Jets is supported by

724
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 1: M and T Bank, the official community bank of your

725
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 1: New York Jets. Eric Allen and Eric Coleman here at

726
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 1: Vanderbilts Sports and Spirits. As a defensive back, when you

727
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,200
Speaker 1: look at the schedule and you see that you're ending

728
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 1: with Aaron Rodgers and then Tom Brady, what do you feel?

729
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 1: You love? You love the challenge. You know you gotta

730
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:26,800
Speaker 1: end the season on a high note. You're playing against

731
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,360
Speaker 1: the best of the best. Let's show the world what

732
00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:31,239
Speaker 1: I can do against them of the great quarterbacks of

733
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,440
Speaker 1: the game. You know, if you're a defensive lineman, let

734
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:34,879
Speaker 1: me get let me get my staffs, let me get

735
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,200
Speaker 1: a sack against Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers. Let's go out

736
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 1: and beat these giants. Let's slay these giants at the

737
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 1: end of the year, ruining their season. You know, I

738
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:42,960
Speaker 1: know that Tom Brady is trying to fight for a

739
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:46,280
Speaker 1: home field advantage right now. I'm trying to ruin whatever

740
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,759
Speaker 1: I can for the Patriots if I'm the Jets. Uh.

741
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:50,720
Speaker 1: You know Aaron Rodgers, you know he's been the best,

742
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 1: probably the best quarterback the game has seen in the

743
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:56,440
Speaker 1: last ten years. You know, been playing great football. You know,

744
00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 1: show show the league that you can compete against these guys.

745
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 1: You if you play as a team, don't make mistakes,

746
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 1: don't beat yourself, you play with anybody. Donald has been

747
00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 1: one of the primary reasons, no doubt about that. But

748
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:11,080
Speaker 1: what has been the difference of the New York Jets

749
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 1: since after Buffalo came to MetLife Stadium in Week ten

750
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:17,160
Speaker 1: and one forty one to ten, because it's been a

751
00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:19,839
Speaker 1: different team who went to Tennessee, was a different team

752
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:23,359
Speaker 1: in Buffalo, and most recently they didn't get to win

753
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,279
Speaker 1: against the Houston Texans. But I thought the effort was

754
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,239
Speaker 1: tremendous throughout. You know, I think you have to give

755
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 1: a lot of the credit to the offensive line play.

756
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:33,720
Speaker 1: They've been very consistent. They set the tone running the football,

757
00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:36,880
Speaker 1: They protected Sam in the passing game, and also when

758
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:39,120
Speaker 1: you look out in the perimeter, Robby Anderson to start

759
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 1: to step up. You know, he had eleven targets last week.

760
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:43,800
Speaker 1: The beginning of the year, he wasn't getting those targets.

761
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 1: He wasn't getting open like he is now. He's starting

762
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 1: to find his rhythm. He's starting to catch those difficult

763
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:52,319
Speaker 1: passes and has given Sam more confidence in him. That's

764
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,439
Speaker 1: very impressive what you're saying about the offensive line, because

765
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:59,480
Speaker 1: you've got Jonathan Harrison who's playing center. He was a reserve.

766
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:03,640
Speaker 1: Were you a former Indianapolis colt who's come in and

767
00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:07,880
Speaker 1: take over for Spencer Long. Spencer Long, he takes over

768
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:11,799
Speaker 1: for James Carpenter, a fine interior player for you, one

769
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 1: of your team captains. And then really tough break for

770
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,759
Speaker 1: one of the nicest guys on his roster. Brandon Shell

771
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 1: goes down with an injury against the Houston Texans and

772
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,320
Speaker 1: he was carted off the field. So now the Jets

773
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:27,840
Speaker 1: might be lining up with Brent Quality at right tackle

774
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,480
Speaker 1: for these final two games. Yeah, you know, it shows.

775
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,279
Speaker 1: It shows a lot. First of all, you have a

776
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,799
Speaker 1: great offensive line coach, you know, and then second, you

777
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,400
Speaker 1: have great chemistry in that room where everyone has a

778
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:39,920
Speaker 1: good relationship with one another. There's trust in the man

779
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,040
Speaker 1: next to you and that you're on the same page

780
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: when it comes to making those calls for the protection. Uh,

781
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:48,600
Speaker 1: you're setting the tone offensively running the football. I think

782
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,359
Speaker 1: it's a credit to the chemistry of that group, and

783
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:53,719
Speaker 1: you need your offensive line to set the tone if

784
00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 1: you're gonna have a successful game. I like Harrison's athleticism

785
00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:01,880
Speaker 1: has long opened your eyes. What he's been able to

786
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,720
Speaker 1: do with guard. Yeah, I mean, his versatility is great.

787
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:06,399
Speaker 1: You know, I know that he did start his career

788
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,760
Speaker 1: off at guard, but he's brought here to play center

789
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 1: and to show his versatility and be able to move

790
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 1: to slide over to the next position is a tough task.

791
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 1: You know, you get used to. We're all creatures of habit.

792
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 1: You know. If you're a left corner, you used to

793
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:21,839
Speaker 1: playing on the left side. If you're a center, used

794
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:23,840
Speaker 1: to snapping the ball and then blocking, you know, to

795
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:25,719
Speaker 1: go over there and play the left guard, have to

796
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:29,319
Speaker 1: communicate you're playing in more space. It's difficult and you

797
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,000
Speaker 1: have to give a lot of credit to Spencer Long

798
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:32,799
Speaker 1: from making that adjust And I'll tell you what, he's

799
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 1: done a nice job and that's where he started his career.

800
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,320
Speaker 1: But he was brought here to be this team's center.

801
00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,400
Speaker 1: But when KRP went down, he moves over and Jonathan

802
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 1: Harrison has done a real fine job at the center position. Well,

803
00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:47,560
Speaker 1: we got one more segment, but we gotta take one

804
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,800
Speaker 1: final break. Will be right back here on inside the Jets.

805
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:57,440
Speaker 1: Fourth and one at the Texans Yards. Sam Donald in

806
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,759
Speaker 1: the shotgun into its right, take the snap, drop the

807
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:04,759
Speaker 1: throp looks right, bros. Right, Robbie Anderson hold out of

808
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:08,800
Speaker 1: the football. He rolled off sil that makes the first

809
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:12,960
Speaker 1: down catch. Remember, Jets fans, you can stream inside the

Speaker 1: her another one. But my kids are taken care of

819

Speaker 1: thanks to Amazon. Oh yeah, it makes it easy. And

820
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:43,600
Speaker 1: you took care of the kids shopping. I took care

821
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:45,800
Speaker 1: of most of it. I'm proud this year because typically

822
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 1: my wife doesn't. She went and got the clothes and

823
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:50,240
Speaker 1: outfits and everything like that. But but I got the toys.

824
00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 1: Santa got the toys I'm sorry, did your wife know?

825
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:55,560
Speaker 1: I mean, do you know what your wife wanted? Or

826
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 1: you did that on your own? You know what I

827
00:38:57,760 --> 00:38:59,840
Speaker 1: keep I have. I have notes on my phone. So

828
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 1: whenever during the year she like mentions, Oh I like that,

829
00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:04,120
Speaker 1: I'll take a little note and try to, you know,

830
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:06,040
Speaker 1: try to surprise her with some of the gifts. All right,

831
00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:09,800
Speaker 1: you are a good man, and you look sharp tonight.

832
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:14,320
Speaker 1: I like the coach handkerchief. It's solid as well. Yeah,

833
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:18,799
Speaker 1: the best dress duo on radio and on all the

834
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 1: Jets platforms. Which, uh, it is the holiday season. So

835
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:26,760
Speaker 1: next week we are going to be here at Vannerable

836
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:32,439
Speaker 1: Sports and Spirits on December, so mark your calendars. That

837
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,879
Speaker 1: is Wednesday night. Eke Coleman and I will be back here,

838
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:39,240
Speaker 1: will be breaking down the Jets and the Green Bay Packers,

839
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:41,919
Speaker 1: and we'll preview the jets final game in the two

840
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 1: thousand eighteen season against the New England Patriots. Uh. What

841
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:50,719
Speaker 1: do you see as far as the FC landscape right now? Um?

842
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:53,359
Speaker 1: Who is the best team in this conference? Because I

843
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,279
Speaker 1: watched some games Sunday after we got a little bit

844
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,880
Speaker 1: of a break after the Jets and the Texans played

845
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:02,680
Speaker 1: Saturday night, and I can't get off feel for any

846
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:04,840
Speaker 1: of this right now. Yeah, I mean, the playoffs scenario

847
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:06,839
Speaker 1: is gonna be crazy, you know once the playoffs start,

848
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,400
Speaker 1: because you know, any given Sunday, as they say, but

849
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 1: when you look at you know, the records, you look

850
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,040
Speaker 1: at the Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Chargers, you gotta

851
00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:17,000
Speaker 1: throw the Patriots in there, and all these teams have

852
00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 1: shown that they can be beat any given Sunday. You know,

853
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:22,680
Speaker 1: you look at the Chiefs, their defense slacks a lot.

854
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 1: You look at the Chargers, they're inconsistent. And the Patriots

855
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:27,960
Speaker 1: have shown that they can get beatn you know, they

856
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:31,400
Speaker 1: got shut out by the Jacksonville Jaguars, So uh, everything

857
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:33,320
Speaker 1: is up for graphs. And there's such a fine line

858
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,759
Speaker 1: between the teams that don't make the playoffs and the

859
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:38,080
Speaker 1: teams that are winning divisions. Listen, the Patriots are the

860
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,759
Speaker 1: king of the FCS. There's no doubt about that. Now

861
00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:44,879
Speaker 1: they've wanted ten consecutive years, and all the power to them.

862
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:47,560
Speaker 1: They should get all the praise and acculates. But with

863
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:51,960
Speaker 1: that being set, are you seeing the Patriots in a

864
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:55,719
Speaker 1: different lens than you've had in the past, Because when

865
00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:58,880
Speaker 1: I watched the Patriots, I say, not a lot of

866
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:03,840
Speaker 1: explosion in terms of offensive plays. Sometimes they struggled this

867
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:06,400
Speaker 1: This guy is an all time great at the quarterback position.

868
00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 1: And I've taken nothing away from the Patriots, but defensively

869
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,720
Speaker 1: they seem middle of the pack right now. This doesn't

870
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:17,319
Speaker 1: look like the same team that we've seen in the past. Yeah,

871
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:19,640
Speaker 1: they're not. You know, they're not the big bullies anymore.

872
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,640
Speaker 1: You know, people aren't afraid of him. It's kind of

873
00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:24,719
Speaker 1: like when when Mike Tyson, Buster Douglas and and Buster

874
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,520
Speaker 1: Douglas hit him in the mouth. Yeah, and it changed,

875
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:29,920
Speaker 1: It changed the way his career went. You know, I

876
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:31,680
Speaker 1: think you're starting to see that with the Patriots. You

877
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,200
Speaker 1: know Tom Brady, Yes, he's a great quarterback, you know,

878
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 1: arguably one of the best to do it. Um, he's

879
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,040
Speaker 1: starting to sew down a little bit. You're starting to

880
00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:41,880
Speaker 1: see some inaccuracies. He's starting to overthrow receivers. He doesn't

881
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 1: have the talent around him as he used to in

882
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:46,880
Speaker 1: the past and the run games, so I think that

883
00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:49,040
Speaker 1: their time is limited. They've had a heck of a run,

884
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:51,720
Speaker 1: you know, done a great job of being consistent throughout

885
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:53,480
Speaker 1: the years, but at the end. At the end of

886
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:55,920
Speaker 1: the day, it's got to end at some point, and

887
00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:57,520
Speaker 1: I think you're starting to see the other teams in

888
00:41:57,560 --> 00:41:59,839
Speaker 1: the a f C East gear up to take over

889
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:03,560
Speaker 1: that spot. Do you think the Jets and the Buffalo

890
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:07,719
Speaker 1: Bills and the Miami Dolphins. Miami is kind of in

891
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:11,719
Speaker 1: a different kind of uh. I look at them in

892
00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 1: a different kind of perspective. I see a lot of

893
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,759
Speaker 1: parallels between the Jets and the Bills. Right now, they

894
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:18,120
Speaker 1: had their young quarterbacks in place. You've got Sam Donald,

895
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:22,080
Speaker 1: You've got Josh Allen, you got some defensive pieces in place,

896
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 1: and you have a lot of money to spend in

897
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:27,400
Speaker 1: the off season. Do you see both of those teams

898
00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:30,759
Speaker 1: potentially taking a step forward next year? Yeah? Well, you know,

899
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:32,960
Speaker 1: the first thing that you have to have to to

900
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 1: win a division is a great quarterback. And I think

901
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 1: both teams have young quarterbacks who are showing a lot

902
00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:41,320
Speaker 1: of promise. I like I like the Jets quarterback personally.

903
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:43,000
Speaker 1: You know, I think Josh Allen has a lot of

904
00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:45,040
Speaker 1: you know, athleticism and some but he has some things

905
00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 1: to work on. Sam Donald is a very complete quarterback.

906
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 1: He's gonna I feel like he's gonna be there, He's

907
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 1: gonna be available. He's not gonna put his body on

908
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:54,759
Speaker 1: the line as much as Josh Allen. So I think

909
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:57,319
Speaker 1: that he's the quarterback to lead the Jets to the

910
00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 1: top of the a f C East. And when you

911
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:02,359
Speaker 1: look at when you look at the playoffs scenario, when

912
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,480
Speaker 1: you see the a f C, the championship in the

913
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:08,760
Speaker 1: NFC Championship is typically four great quarterbacks playing against one another.

914
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:10,799
Speaker 1: You've got to have a great quarterback to to be

915
00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,160
Speaker 1: in the competition, and the Jets have it along with

916
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:15,400
Speaker 1: a very good defense. They can put some more pieces

917
00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:18,239
Speaker 1: around it. Who knows what's gonna happen. Yeah, because it

918
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:21,280
Speaker 1: proved to be anomaly last year with the Jacksonville Jaguars

919
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:25,000
Speaker 1: because Blake bols He played pretty well down the stretch

920
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:26,960
Speaker 1: and a lot of people were thinking, oh, Jacksonville is

921
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:29,440
Speaker 1: gonna be in the mix again. Well, every once in

922
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,520
Speaker 1: a while, a team with a great defense makes that step.

923
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:34,879
Speaker 1: You see with the Baltimore Ravens. You know, you've seen

924
00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:37,040
Speaker 1: it throughout the years. Every couple of years. A great

925
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:40,280
Speaker 1: defense helps propel that quarterback and and a good running

926
00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:42,640
Speaker 1: game helps out as well. But I like what I

927
00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:44,920
Speaker 1: see with the Jets because they do have a great defense,

928
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,520
Speaker 1: they're gonna add on that and they have a great quarterback.

929
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:49,760
Speaker 1: So you know, that's why you have to be confident.

930
00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:51,799
Speaker 1: You have to be patient with the process. I think

931
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 1: the Jets are shown taking strides to become that great

932
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:56,320
Speaker 1: team and it's just gonna be a matter of time before.

933
00:43:56,680 --> 00:44:00,200
Speaker 1: And listen, you should go to Mountlife Stadium on Sunday

934
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:02,799
Speaker 1: because it's the Jets and the Packers. They don't come

935
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:05,160
Speaker 1: here very often. That's Aaron Rodgers, and you get a

936
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 1: chance to see Sam Donald for the final time in

937
00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:13,799
Speaker 1: two thousand eighteen at home anyway, and he continues to

938
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:17,120
Speaker 1: send we do as well here on inside the Jets.

939
00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:20,359
Speaker 1: Thanks to everybody for coming out tonight. Remember next week.

940
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:21,440
Speaker 1: We'll be back in December.
