He gets 33 00:01:56,908 --> 00:01:59,508 Speaker 1: his second start in a row. Mike White still not 34 00:01:59,548 --> 00:02:01,868 Speaker 1: clear for contact dealing with that rib injury. We'll see 35 00:02:01,908 --> 00:02:04,388 Speaker 1: what happens after this game as far as the quarterback 36 00:02:04,388 --> 00:02:07,628 Speaker 1: aosition for the Jets. But Zach Wilson starts tonight. Meanwhile, 37 00:02:07,668 --> 00:02:10,388 Speaker 1: it sounds like he should have. Quinnin Williams, the standout 38 00:02:10,428 --> 00:02:13,268 Speaker 1: defensive tackle for the Jets, still with the cap injury, 39 00:02:13,348 --> 00:02:16,468 Speaker 1: did not play last week. Listen is questionable, but a 40 00:02:16,508 --> 00:02:20,508 Speaker 1: full participant that is significant. Robert Sala described him as 41 00:02:20,548 --> 00:02:23,388 Speaker 1: pointing in the right direction, So sounds like you should 42 00:02:23,388 --> 00:02:26,788 Speaker 1: see Quinnin Williams out there tonight for the Jets. As 43 00:02:26,828 --> 00:02:29,948 Speaker 1: for the Jaguars, Trevor Lawrence Listen is questionable with that 44 00:02:30,068 --> 00:02:32,588 Speaker 1: sprained big toe that he's been battling all about the 45 00:02:32,668 --> 00:02:35,548 Speaker 1: last month or so. I'm told he is expected to play. 46 00:02:35,628 --> 00:02:38,228 Speaker 1: No surprise there. He's also getting better. And one thing 47 00:02:38,228 --> 00:02:40,908 Speaker 1: you're gonna see, guys, is Trevor Lawrence gets back into 48 00:02:40,948 --> 00:02:43,548 Speaker 1: full health and gets more confidence, more deep shots. I 49 00:02:43,548 --> 00:02:46,628 Speaker 1: would expect to see that tonight. Meanwhile, on defense, the 50 00:02:46,708 --> 00:02:50,028 Speaker 1: Jaguars are not going to have Trey Von Walker, their 51 00:02:50,068 --> 00:02:52,748 Speaker 1: first pick from this past year. He's still with an 52 00:02:52,748 --> 00:02:56,228 Speaker 1: ankle injury, did not play last week, already listed is out, 53 00:02:56,428 --> 00:03:00,628 Speaker 1: will not play tonight. Oh that's too bad, rap sheet. 54 00:03:00,668 --> 00:03:03,508 Speaker 1: That would have been stars on the fields. A plenty 55 00:03:03,548 --> 00:03:04,948 Speaker 1: of the last couple of years is in the draft 56 00:03:04,948 --> 00:03:07,868 Speaker 1: classes between these two teams. But it's one to look 57 00:03:07,908 --> 00:03:09,388 Speaker 1: forward to. Thanks you, and we'll talk to you in 58 00:03:09,428 --> 00:03:12,748 Speaker 1: a little bit. Let's glance at the AFC playoff picture, 59 00:03:12,868 --> 00:03:15,988 Speaker 1: because the Jets and the Jags. Man, they're really working 60 00:03:15,988 --> 00:03:18,228 Speaker 1: our lurking column because we rename that one on the 61 00:03:18,268 --> 00:03:20,628 Speaker 1: far right a while back, and now we've committed and 62 00:03:20,628 --> 00:03:22,468 Speaker 1: now it plays. Every time you say it, it works. 63 00:03:22,708 --> 00:03:26,068 Speaker 1: They're the nine and ten seeds, respectively. If the Jags 64 00:03:26,068 --> 00:03:28,868 Speaker 1: win out, they win the AFC South, they would be 65 00:03:28,908 --> 00:03:31,868 Speaker 1: hosting a home playoffs. Awesome, but with a win for 66 00:03:31,988 --> 00:03:34,868 Speaker 1: either team tonight go a long way in the fighting 67 00:03:34,948 --> 00:03:38,188 Speaker 1: chances for a playoff. Berth, here comes a question, okay 68 00:03:38,348 --> 00:03:41,868 Speaker 1: about this playoff picture, about those two teams lurking, what 69 00:03:41,988 --> 00:03:48,548 Speaker 1: will ultimately determine who gets that win tonight? Pete, Oh, no, 70 00:03:48,548 --> 00:03:53,988 Speaker 1: no question what We love themc Hammer in the nineties, right, yes, Hammer, 71 00:03:54,108 --> 00:03:58,988 Speaker 1: don't hammered.

Don't hurt them. 74 00:04:09,268 --> 00:04:11,668 Speaker 1: You gotta pray them. Make it today, Jets. I'll tell 75 00:04:11,708 --> 00:04:16,828 Speaker 1: you what, Zach Wilson, don't hurt the Jets. Don't turn 76 00:04:16,908 --> 00:04:19,108 Speaker 1: the ball over the picks last week. This is all 77 00:04:19,108 --> 00:04:21,108 Speaker 1: the good stuff we're showing on the footage. This is great. 78 00:04:21,108 --> 00:04:22,748 Speaker 1: This is like what you dream of if you're a 79 00:04:22,828 --> 00:04:25,108 Speaker 1: Jets fan. This is possible. Ye don't we don't not 80 00:04:25,188 --> 00:04:27,428 Speaker 1: even ask him for this. Don't hurt them, the Jets. 81 00:04:27,788 --> 00:04:31,308 Speaker 1: It's gonna be raining, it's gonna be ugly. The Jets 82 00:04:31,308 --> 00:04:34,308 Speaker 1: need to muck this game up as much as possible, 83 00:04:34,388 --> 00:04:37,868 Speaker 1: and Zach Wilson cannot hurt them. This is the last 84 00:04:37,868 --> 00:04:40,628 Speaker 1: thing you want to hear about your number two overall 85 00:04:40,668 --> 00:04:43,868 Speaker 1: pick and how you win games in the NFL, number 86 00:04:43,868 --> 00:04:45,428 Speaker 1: two of all pick going up against the number one 87 00:04:45,468 --> 00:04:48,788 Speaker 1: overall pick from the same year in a situation where 88 00:04:48,828 --> 00:04:51,468 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence is a shiny new toy for Jacksonville that 89 00:04:51,468 --> 00:04:55,188 Speaker 1: they're ready to build shrines too. I'm just telling Zach Wilson, 90 00:04:55,348 --> 00:04:57,948 Speaker 1: don't hurt the Jets. That's how the Jets win this game. 91 00:04:58,068 --> 00:05:02,828 Speaker 1: Let defense, let special teams, and let the running game 92 00:05:02,908 --> 00:05:05,988 Speaker 1: control this. Let me set the picture feything else it's 93 00:05:06,028 --> 00:05:09,228 Speaker 1: gonna be. It's gonna be windy, it's gonna be rainy, 94 00:05:09,628 --> 00:05:13,068 Speaker 1: it's gonna be gross, gusting New Jersey weather, disgusting New 95 00:05:13,148 --> 00:05:16,668 Speaker 1: Jersey gray weather where the sun hasn't shine in about 96 00:05:16,748 --> 00:05:20,348 Speaker 1: four weeks. Al Michael's coming in from Beverly Hills doing 97 00:05:20,468 --> 00:05:24,668 Speaker 1: any ideal. What you're about to just's gonna be in 98 00:05:24,708 --> 00:05:28,508 Speaker 1: some move today. Let me promise you that. And I'm 99 00:05:28,548 --> 00:05:31,108 Speaker 1: just asking Zach Wilson not to hurt the Jets. It 100 00:05:31,148 --> 00:05:34,748 Speaker 1: sounds so dismissive, it sounds so insulting, it sounds like 101 00:05:34,748 --> 00:05:37,548 Speaker 1: the most back. It's it's it is that at this 102 00:05:37,588 --> 00:05:40,748 Speaker 1: point for the Jets, because if Wilson doesn't throw the 103 00:05:40,788 --> 00:05:43,268 Speaker 1: four picks against the Patriots, maybe they win that game. 104 00:05:43,348 --> 00:05:45,508 Speaker 1: He doesn't throw the three picks against the Lions, the 105 00:05:45,908 --> 00:05:49,108 Speaker 1: right win. Don't throw any picks. If Zach Wilson puts 106 00:05:49,188 --> 00:05:51,628 Speaker 1: up a goose egg today, a goose egg, and I'm 107 00:05:51,628 --> 00:05:54,788 Speaker 1: talking interceptions, clean game clean, not even not even asking 108 00:05:54,788 --> 00:05:57,028 Speaker 1: for two hundred yards. Could he go double goose egg? 109 00:05:57,068 --> 00:05:59,548 Speaker 1: No zero zero, Great, we'll take zero zero. You don't. 110 00:05:59,708 --> 00:06:01,668 Speaker 1: He doesn't have to throw a touchdown. You're fine. This 111 00:06:01,788 --> 00:06:04,668 Speaker 1: is me in the start of the show saying the 112 00:06:04,668 --> 00:06:07,228 Speaker 1: the method to the Jets winning tonight is to get 113 00:06:07,228 --> 00:06:10,388 Speaker 1: out of this thing seventeen fourteen. Let the defense, let 114 00:06:10,428 --> 00:06:12,868 Speaker 1: Bam Knight, and let the let the offensive line take 115 00:06:12,868 --> 00:06:14,788 Speaker 1: care of business and just get out of this thing 116 00:06:14,828 --> 00:06:17,788 Speaker 1: clean with a rainy w and Zach Wilson doesn't throw 117 00:06:17,828 --> 00:06:19,948 Speaker 1: a single. If Zach Wilson does not throw interception tonight, 118 00:06:19,948 --> 00:06:22,428 Speaker 1: the Jets win the game. Oh okay, bull take at 119 00:06:22,468 --> 00:06:24,868 Speaker 1: seven and again click say it again. If Zach Wilson 120 00:06:24,908 --> 00:06:27,748 Speaker 1: does not throw a pick tonight, the Jets win. And 121 00:06:27,788 --> 00:06:34,908 Speaker 1: we're talking playoffs in January as a real possible. You say, movie, 122 00:06:35,868 --> 00:06:37,708 Speaker 1: that's why we pray go ahead. You painted a great 123 00:06:37,748 --> 00:06:39,548 Speaker 1: picture like now, I'm fired up to be at the game, 124 00:06:39,668 --> 00:06:44,388 Speaker 1: disgusting ray New Jersey weather. I'm so excited to be there. 125 00:06:44,588 --> 00:06:46,748 Speaker 1: And you mentioned Zach Wilson. I'm gonna talk a little 126 00:06:46,788 --> 00:06:49,708 Speaker 1: bit about Trevor Lawrence because this guy has been red 127 00:06:49,788 --> 00:06:53,668 Speaker 1: hot as of late. He's thrown eleven touchdowns, one interception, 128 00:06:53,908 --> 00:06:56,388 Speaker 1: over a thousand yards pass and it's just been on 129 00:06:56,508 --> 00:06:59,188 Speaker 1: the money. But like you said, Peter, this game's gonna 130 00:06:59,188 --> 00:07:01,388 Speaker 1: be a little bit different. It's gonna be cold, is 131 00:07:01,388 --> 00:07:03,988 Speaker 1: gonna be rainy, is gonna be windy. And there was 132 00:07:03,988 --> 00:07:06,308 Speaker 1: a game this year where the Jaguars had to play 133 00:07:06,348 --> 00:07:10,108 Speaker 1: in those conditions. It was about low fifties in Philadelphia 134 00:07:10,188 --> 00:07:12,988 Speaker 1: and it rained the entire game and it was not 135 00:07:13,148 --> 00:07:17,548 Speaker 1: a pretty one for Trevor Lawrence had five turnovers, five 136 00:07:17,988 --> 00:07:21,468 Speaker 1: one interception, and four lost fumbles. Two of them as 137 00:07:21,468 --> 00:07:23,628 Speaker 1: sign Reddick knocks him out out of his hand. He 138 00:07:23,708 --> 00:07:26,068 Speaker 1: can blaming out on the old line whatever. Two of 139 00:07:26,108 --> 00:07:28,868 Speaker 1: them he just drops the ball. He's scrambling, ball just 140 00:07:28,948 --> 00:07:31,188 Speaker 1: falls out of his hand. Another one he fumbles the 141 00:07:31,268 --> 00:07:34,028 Speaker 1: snap and the Eagles get the ball back. Jacksonville is 142 00:07:34,068 --> 00:07:36,468 Speaker 1: not used to playing in these conditions. We've said it 143 00:07:36,548 --> 00:07:39,348 Speaker 1: over the years. They haven't played in many meaningful football 144 00:07:39,428 --> 00:07:42,308 Speaker 1: games late in the season. Believe me, I know, because 145 00:07:42,348 --> 00:07:44,188 Speaker 1: I've gone against him in a lot of those late 146 00:07:44,188 --> 00:07:47,108 Speaker 1: season games where all of us had our vacations booked 147 00:07:47,148 --> 00:07:49,228 Speaker 1: for a few weeks later. But I think a lot 148 00:07:49,228 --> 00:07:51,388 Speaker 1: of this game comes down to how they handled the 149 00:07:51,388 --> 00:07:54,308 Speaker 1: football and how Trevor Lawrence holds onto it. Yes, he's 150 00:07:54,308 --> 00:07:56,708 Speaker 1: been terrific and I assume he's gonna continue to go 151 00:07:56,828 --> 00:07:58,868 Speaker 1: that way. But in order to do that, he can't 152 00:07:58,908 --> 00:08:01,588 Speaker 1: turn the ball over in these conditions. And the last 153 00:08:01,588 --> 00:08:03,268 Speaker 1: time he was out and he played in this type 154 00:08:03,268 --> 00:08:05,828 Speaker 1: of weather, it was out pretty So can they come 155 00:08:05,868 --> 00:08:07,748 Speaker 1: in there tonight? Can he take care of the football, 156 00:08:07,868 --> 00:08:10,148 Speaker 1: Can he still sling a few touchdown passes and lead 157 00:08:10,188 --> 00:08:12,508 Speaker 1: his offense that will determine the outcome in this game. 158 00:08:12,548 --> 00:08:14,148 Speaker 1: You know what's kind of crazy to think about is 159 00:08:14,348 --> 00:08:16,708 Speaker 1: all a heat that Tutunga Voloa got over the last 160 00:08:16,708 --> 00:08:19,028 Speaker 1: couple weeks about playing in chilly weather, and like, oh 161 00:08:19,068 --> 00:08:20,708 Speaker 1: my god, what is he gonna do? No one is 162 00:08:20,748 --> 00:08:23,308 Speaker 1: talked about exactly. Drevor Lawrence grew up and Georgia went 163 00:08:23,348 --> 00:08:25,988 Speaker 1: to College of South Carolina playing in Jacksonville. Yet no 164 00:08:25,988 --> 00:08:28,068 Speaker 1: one seems to care that he is because he's been winning. 165 00:08:28,108 --> 00:08:30,148 Speaker 1: I also, though, again I don't think anyone saw this 166 00:08:30,188 --> 00:08:31,988 Speaker 1: coming from the Jaguars, where it wasn't even a national 167 00:08:32,028 --> 00:08:35,428 Speaker 1: telling too. It was like the lead Suddenly that's going 168 00:08:35,468 --> 00:08:36,748 Speaker 1: to be a thing if they go to the playoffs, 169 00:08:36,748 --> 00:08:39,988 Speaker 1: for sure. What takes to win this game? Jets defense, 170 00:08:39,988 --> 00:08:41,308 Speaker 1: the time to go to work, Peter. I don't know 171 00:08:41,348 --> 00:08:42,988 Speaker 1: if you getting your wish, buddy. I don't know if 172 00:08:42,988 --> 00:08:45,428 Speaker 1: the dimple faced assassin, the cabbage patch kid, is gonna 173 00:08:45,548 --> 00:08:47,988 Speaker 1: go no one or simple faced assassin. He looks like 174 00:08:48,028 --> 00:08:49,868 Speaker 1: it's Christmas time. He looks like cabs patch kid. He's 175 00:08:49,868 --> 00:08:51,428 Speaker 1: got blue eyes and dimples. I don't know if he's 176 00:08:51,428 --> 00:08:53,268 Speaker 1: going into the New Jersey weather, into the teeth of 177 00:08:53,308 --> 00:08:55,788 Speaker 1: the defense and playing a clean game. And yet there's 178 00:08:55,788 --> 00:08:58,148 Speaker 1: this reputation of the Jets defense. Jet Stevens is awesome. 179 00:08:58,188 --> 00:09:01,388 Speaker 1: They're great, They're good, They're really good. I don't I 180 00:09:01,388 --> 00:09:03,828 Speaker 1: don't know if they're great. They've played well, they haven't 181 00:09:03,828 --> 00:09:06,188 Speaker 1: play Here's the facts about the Jets defense that we 182 00:09:06,268 --> 00:09:08,068 Speaker 1: love and we hype and they're young and they're exciting. 183 00:09:09,148 --> 00:09:11,708 Speaker 1: Last week and they're lost. They did not sack Jared Goff. 184 00:09:12,348 --> 00:09:15,308 Speaker 1: They did not intercept Jared Goff. The week before that, 185 00:09:15,348 --> 00:09:17,828 Speaker 1: they did not intercept Josh Allen Josh Will Chucky one. 186 00:09:18,068 --> 00:09:20,228 Speaker 1: The week before that, they did not intercept Kirk Cousins 187 00:09:20,348 --> 00:09:24,348 Speaker 1: Kirk Will Chucky one. This great opportunistic defense. The last 188 00:09:24,388 --> 00:09:29,028 Speaker 1: interception they have was against Bears quarterback Trevor Simeon. That's 189 00:09:29,068 --> 00:09:31,388 Speaker 1: the last one. It's been a month. Kind of makes 190 00:09:31,388 --> 00:09:33,468 Speaker 1: some place to night against Lawrence. I don't think that 191 00:09:33,508 --> 00:09:35,468 Speaker 1: you're gonna get your wish and Zach wils Is gonna 192 00:09:35,468 --> 00:09:37,228 Speaker 1: show him. Yeah, I did my job cleaning. I think 193 00:09:37,228 --> 00:09:38,868 Speaker 1: there's gonna be some issues. I think it's gonna be 194 00:09:39,028 --> 00:09:41,108 Speaker 1: Jason those quick changes where you just sit down on 195 00:09:41,148 --> 00:09:43,908 Speaker 1: the bench. As a defense, you're like, oh man, I'm 196 00:09:43,908 --> 00:09:48,548 Speaker 1: gonna stretch out quick change, leave it, hello, helmet. I 197 00:09:48,708 --> 00:09:50,428 Speaker 1: think it's gonna a couple of those, I really do, 198 00:09:50,668 --> 00:09:52,708 Speaker 1: and you're gonna have to sun and change and change it. 199 00:09:52,708 --> 00:09:54,588 Speaker 1: All of a sudden. Jets got first and goal on 200 00:09:54,628 --> 00:09:57,428 Speaker 1: the nine yard line. Oh my god, that kid in 201 00:09:57,508 --> 00:09:59,628 Speaker 1: those dimples. I think they have to go to work. 202 00:09:59,668 --> 00:10:02,468 Speaker 1: I'll put it this way. If the Jets defense does 203 00:10:02,508 --> 00:10:05,988 Speaker 1: not have an interception tonight, the Jets can't. I'll go 204 00:10:06,028 --> 00:10:08,868 Speaker 1: the opposite. It's fair. If the Jets defense does not 205 00:10:08,948 --> 00:10:11,428 Speaker 1: have their first interception in a month, the Jaguars are 206 00:10:11,428 --> 00:10:12,868 Speaker 1: gonna win. I'm on that. They got to make some 207 00:10:12,908 --> 00:10:14,628 Speaker 1: places that they got. They may even have to score tonight. 208 00:10:14,708 --> 00:10:16,708 Speaker 1: I really think, is there a scenario where Wilson, like 209 00:10:16,828 --> 00:10:19,188 Speaker 1: you heard he in report, He's like, they might go 210 00:10:19,268 --> 00:10:21,308 Speaker 1: take some deep shots like they want to see. Is 211 00:10:21,308 --> 00:10:23,628 Speaker 1: there a scenario where Wilson just shuts everybody up on 212 00:10:23,708 --> 00:10:25,868 Speaker 1: national team, he just balls out. I hope so that'd 213 00:10:25,908 --> 00:10:28,068 Speaker 1: be a nice story here. I like it not based 214 00:10:28,068 --> 00:10:29,988 Speaker 1: on what I've seen, is Mike White plain tonight, No 215 00:10:30,108 --> 00:10:32,028 Speaker 1: I like Mike White a lot. I think the Jets 216 00:10:32,068 --> 00:10:34,188 Speaker 1: do too. What's the terrible movie? The Christmas movie that 217 00:10:34,188 --> 00:10:37,668 Speaker 1: you didn't like? Where do we start? A good A 218 00:10:37,708 --> 00:10:40,028 Speaker 1: good life? Oh? The best? Which one are you talking about? You? 219 00:10:40,428 --> 00:10:42,868 Speaker 1: Good of life? The perfect life? Yes, that's what It's 220 00:10:42,868 --> 00:10:46,788 Speaker 1: a wonderful life. It's a wonderful life. Wonderful. Yeah. I 221 00:10:46,788 --> 00:10:49,228 Speaker 1: don't see that coming for I see that, yeah, for 222 00:10:49,308 --> 00:10:58,508 Speaker 1: exact A miracle on three. So I'm hearing right Christmas 223 00:10:58,508 --> 00:11:03,668 Speaker 1: movie himself, Christmas movies later on. Again. Shockingly, we're talking 224 00:11:03,708 --> 00:11:05,468 Speaker 1: about things that have happened in a month for both 225 00:11:05,468 --> 00:11:07,268 Speaker 1: of these teams. We're talking about the weather. All I'm 226 00:11:07,308 --> 00:11:09,388 Speaker 1: hearing right now is just run the ball and get 227 00:11:09,388 --> 00:11:11,468 Speaker 1: the hell out of town. And that is what the 228 00:11:11,548 --> 00:11:14,508 Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars need to do. However, the Jaguars just need 229 00:11:14,508 --> 00:11:16,988 Speaker 1: to start running back the way running backs need to play, 230 00:11:17,308 --> 00:11:19,268 Speaker 1: get the ball in the backfield and take it across 231 00:11:19,268 --> 00:11:21,308 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage, maybe a couple extra because they 232 00:11:21,308 --> 00:11:23,788 Speaker 1: just haven't done that. Now. Last week against the Cowboys, 233 00:11:23,868 --> 00:11:25,828 Speaker 1: they started to click in a little bit better. They 234 00:11:25,828 --> 00:11:27,988 Speaker 1: had one hundred plus rushing yards in Week fifteen. Great 235 00:11:28,508 --> 00:11:31,228 Speaker 1: prior to that guy's The four games before that Cowboys game, 236 00:11:31,268 --> 00:11:35,428 Speaker 1: they had a total one hundred ninety six yards. Four games, 237 00:11:35,628 --> 00:11:38,308 Speaker 1: one hundred ninety six yards. They haven't scored a rushing 238 00:11:38,348 --> 00:11:42,268 Speaker 1: touchdown by a running back in five weeks. Yikes. And 239 00:11:42,348 --> 00:11:44,748 Speaker 1: that's compared to the Saints. Now they've been winning, so 240 00:11:44,828 --> 00:11:47,428 Speaker 1: it doesn't seem that egregious. But I don't think that 241 00:11:47,508 --> 00:11:49,948 Speaker 1: you can finish the last three weeks of the season. 242 00:11:50,268 --> 00:11:52,148 Speaker 1: I don't think you can go on the road in 243 00:11:52,188 --> 00:11:54,788 Speaker 1: some nasty weather with a quarterback that has been relying 244 00:11:54,828 --> 00:11:57,228 Speaker 1: on the passing game so much and win a game. 245 00:11:57,348 --> 00:11:59,868 Speaker 1: So if we're gonna put out proclamations, I guess if 246 00:11:59,868 --> 00:12:02,228 Speaker 1: the Jaguars are gonna win, they got to score two 247 00:12:02,308 --> 00:12:04,708 Speaker 1: rushing touchdow, they got to get down within the zone, 248 00:12:04,708 --> 00:12:07,548 Speaker 1: and they got to punch that thing in from two, three, five, 249 00:12:07,708 --> 00:12:09,308 Speaker 1: whatever you want to do. But they got to be 250 00:12:09,348 --> 00:12:11,428 Speaker 1: able to punch in and not a quarterback sneak. I'm 251 00:12:11,468 --> 00:12:14,508 Speaker 1: talking to Travis at and Russian touchdown. Okay, we're calling 252 00:12:14,508 --> 00:12:17,908 Speaker 1: our shot in seven eighth, all right, coming off, I'll 253 00:12:17,908 --> 00:12:26,268 Speaker 1: go running football hut huge, yes, huge, guests, Welcome back 254 00:12:26,268 --> 00:12:28,348 Speaker 1: to Good Morning Football.

What was your 266 00:13:00,108 --> 00:13:04,228 Speaker 1: reaction when you heard the news of Franco's passing, you know, 267 00:13:04,508 --> 00:13:09,828 Speaker 1: I guess, you know, initially stunned and disbelief. Um. I 268 00:13:09,908 --> 00:13:14,188 Speaker 1: was sitting in my car, actually outside our facility in 269 00:13:14,228 --> 00:13:18,428 Speaker 1: the parking lot, scanning a few emails and things before 270 00:13:18,468 --> 00:13:23,188 Speaker 1: I came into building yesterday morning, and I got the news, 271 00:13:23,268 --> 00:13:25,868 Speaker 1: and I probably sat there for a few minutes to 272 00:13:25,908 --> 00:13:31,068 Speaker 1: gather myself before coming into building, because you know, it's 273 00:13:31,108 --> 00:13:35,148 Speaker 1: just it's just sad because you know, we were leaning 274 00:13:35,228 --> 00:13:39,188 Speaker 1: in on the weekend to to honor him and his 275 00:13:39,308 --> 00:13:43,268 Speaker 1: legacy not only for us as an organization, but for 276 00:13:43,388 --> 00:13:47,628 Speaker 1: this game of football.

They both served on that board for a 334 00:17:02,548 --> 00:17:04,268 Speaker 1: number of years and so it really gave us an 335 00:17:04,428 --> 00:17:09,468 Speaker 1: opportunity to spending all football moments charitable moments together, and 336 00:17:10,308 --> 00:17:13,348 Speaker 1: you know, I just think that's Franco for me.

You know, there is 344 00:17:41,348 --> 00:17:44,308 Speaker 1: a game meanwhile in two days, an actual football game 345 00:17:44,308 --> 00:17:46,788 Speaker 1: that I know you badly want to win. The coach 346 00:17:47,068 --> 00:17:49,668 Speaker 1: you announced Rickie quarterback Annie Pickett. We'll start this week. 347 00:17:49,708 --> 00:17:52,108 Speaker 1: We love Picket here. We've rooted for him hard. We're 348 00:17:52,148 --> 00:17:53,948 Speaker 1: still rooting for him hard. We're thrilled that we're gonna 349 00:17:53,948 --> 00:17:55,068 Speaker 1: be able to see him out on the field for 350 00:17:55,068 --> 00:17:58,388 Speaker 1: the Steelers now that we're into December. He's not really 351 00:17:58,428 --> 00:18:00,548 Speaker 1: a rookie. What have you've seen from him this year 352 00:18:00,588 --> 00:18:02,228 Speaker 1: that you like? And what are some things that maybe 353 00:18:02,228 --> 00:18:05,788 Speaker 1: he needs to work on moving forward? To be bluntly artist, man, 354 00:18:05,828 --> 00:18:07,788 Speaker 1: he needs to work on all aspects of his game. 355 00:18:07,908 --> 00:18:12,268 Speaker 1: You know, you know, he's a talented. He's a talented guy, 356 00:18:12,788 --> 00:18:15,548 Speaker 1: but he is a young guy, and just the growth 357 00:18:16,348 --> 00:18:18,748 Speaker 1: that's in front of him as exciting. I say that 358 00:18:19,508 --> 00:18:22,428 Speaker 1: all the while there's an expectation that he is good 359 00:18:22,548 --> 00:18:24,748 Speaker 1: enough for us to win right now, and so I 360 00:18:25,148 --> 00:18:28,348 Speaker 1: just repeatedly make that point because I just want everyone 361 00:18:28,388 --> 00:18:30,468 Speaker 1: to know we're not grading and grading on a curve. 362 00:18:31,268 --> 00:18:35,028 Speaker 1: Our job is to win. What he has done is 363 00:18:35,668 --> 00:18:38,468 Speaker 1: he has gotten better with each and every outing and 364 00:18:38,508 --> 00:18:43,388 Speaker 1: that's awful, something that we expect because he works so hard. 365 00:18:44,068 --> 00:18:47,588 Speaker 1: Just focus on preparation is what you look for, and 366 00:18:47,668 --> 00:18:49,988 Speaker 1: so as reasonable when you have a talented young guy 367 00:18:50,028 --> 00:18:54,268 Speaker 1: who's highly competitive, who works extremely hard to get better. 368 00:18:54,548 --> 00:18:56,988 Speaker 1: And so it's been a fun process to be a 369 00:18:57,028 --> 00:19:01,828 Speaker 1: part of and to watch, and I just anticipate it continuated, 370 00:19:01,868 --> 00:19:05,388 Speaker 1: and all the while he and we've been to pursue victory, 371 00:19:06,868 --> 00:19:08,748 Speaker 1: it's been fun for us to watch too. The Steelers 372 00:19:08,748 --> 00:19:10,588 Speaker 1: do not grade on a curve. That is not how 373 00:19:10,628 --> 00:19:13,508 Speaker 1: the organization has run, and we respect it.

That's 385 00:20:16,788 --> 00:20:20,148 Speaker 1: the immaculate reception. We've had the Music City Miracle, We've 386 00:20:20,148 --> 00:20:23,068 Speaker 1: had the Minneapolis Miracle. What a better topic to do 387 00:20:23,708 --> 00:20:28,428 Speaker 1: for mixed bag trivia than great crazy NFL finishes. We're 388 00:20:28,428 --> 00:20:30,388 Speaker 1: going to see some video, listen to some sound, and 389 00:20:30,428 --> 00:20:34,828 Speaker 1: do some sounds. Already there's more to come, really promise, 390 00:20:34,988 --> 00:20:37,348 Speaker 1: there's more to come. Let's go, Bason, I'm gonna start 391 00:20:37,388 --> 00:20:41,068 Speaker 1: with you. Um this one goes a little underrated in 392 00:20:41,108 --> 00:20:44,388 Speaker 1: the annals of time. It was a Jaguar Saints game 393 00:20:44,668 --> 00:20:48,068 Speaker 1: in the early two thousands, actually two thousand and three, 394 00:20:48,828 --> 00:20:54,388 Speaker 1: happened in Jacksonville and the Saints were trailing by seven points. 395 00:20:54,548 --> 00:20:57,508 Speaker 1: I remember this game let's see how this last play finished. 396 00:20:57,548 --> 00:20:59,508 Speaker 1: And then I'm gonna ask you a question. Kurt Menifee 397 00:20:59,588 --> 00:21:06,228 Speaker 1: play by play the call, Doctor scar Worth catches it. 398 00:21:06,508 --> 00:21:09,468 Speaker 1: Catty's in bounds. He's gonna have to score on this one, 399 00:21:10,148 --> 00:21:12,548 Speaker 1: and he's got a chance getting a couple of clocks. 400 00:21:12,828 --> 00:21:19,748 Speaker 1: Ladder is it over to Michael Horse Doctor mccalister's cat 401 00:21:19,788 --> 00:21:25,348 Speaker 1: alive and they do Paython with the catch. Any dials 402 00:21:25,388 --> 00:21:29,508 Speaker 1: into the town for the touchdowns, Bits Burger the holder, 403 00:21:30,468 --> 00:21:37,628 Speaker 1: and he missed it. Can you believe that finish can 404 00:21:37,748 --> 00:21:42,468 Speaker 1: chase his faith? That is dismay, That is horror. They're 405 00:21:42,508 --> 00:21:47,588 Speaker 1: down seven. They go Jerome pa Stalworth to paython to 406 00:21:47,788 --> 00:21:51,388 Speaker 1: Michael Lewis to due back to Pathon. They score, and 407 00:21:51,428 --> 00:21:56,228 Speaker 1: then John Carney misses the extra pointer, the old extra point, 408 00:21:56,028 --> 00:21:59,548 Speaker 1: and nobody ever missed, Yes, and they missed the playoffs. 409 00:21:59,548 --> 00:22:03,148 Speaker 1: The whole deal um Saints fans, one of the craziest finishes. 410 00:22:03,188 --> 00:22:05,708 Speaker 1: Jaguars fans crazy. But in that play was a guy 411 00:22:05,788 --> 00:22:09,308 Speaker 1: named Michael Lewis. He was the returner. He's a pro 412 00:22:09,388 --> 00:22:13,148 Speaker 1: bowler for the Saints. This guy had an amazing NFL story. 413 00:22:13,388 --> 00:22:20,388 Speaker 1: His nickname was Blank based on his previous occupation, the zoologists, 414 00:22:21,268 --> 00:22:27,508 Speaker 1: the mascot, the beer man, the accountant. Wow, I do 415 00:22:27,628 --> 00:22:29,748 Speaker 1: not know this one. This is gonna be a blind guess. 416 00:22:30,348 --> 00:22:34,188 Speaker 1: I'm going to go with Seed the beer man, because 417 00:22:34,268 --> 00:22:37,548 Speaker 1: that just sounds like an amazing career and something that 418 00:22:37,588 --> 00:22:39,348 Speaker 1: you just can't draw up. I'm going with the beer 419 00:22:39,348 --> 00:22:41,228 Speaker 1: man who was out of stadium and he was handing 420 00:22:41,268 --> 00:22:48,948 Speaker 1: out beer.
