All right? 119 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 1: So let me ask you this then? You know I 120 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 1: was on your show earlier this week. We talked about 121 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, and I told you how I thought 122 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: the game could go the only thing that scares me 123 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: for the Seahawks. Let me say this to you. You 124 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: say Sam. 125 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 3: Darnod's gonna be hoisting Lombardi Trophy in forty eight hours. 126 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 3: If I said to you, the Seahawks won't win, because 127 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 3: what's the reason to give me that they won't win? 128 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 2: Because they can't do what they've done all year long 129 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 2: and get home with a four man rush. 130 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 4: They don't blitz at all, guys, they really don't. 131 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 2: They are one of the least blitzing teams in the NFL. 132 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 2: Leonard Williams, Byron Murphy, Jaron Reid, DeMarcus Lawrence have done 133 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 2: a phenomenal job of getting home on their own the 134 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 2: entire year. So what Mike McDonald's able to do is 135 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 2: drop seven. And if they have to get home with 136 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 2: five and they have to blitz in this game and 137 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,239 Speaker 2: Drake make and find a window and find a pocket 138 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,840 Speaker 2: in that secondary, this could be problematic. 139 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 4: Now, I will tell you this. 140 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 2: They've played five games this year, two against the Cardinals, 141 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 2: one against Detectionans Titans, and god darnad Ick forgot the 142 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 2: fifth team. But they're five to zero in those games 143 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 2: against teams that like to use a sixth offensive lineman. 144 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 2: So it has not been a. 145 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 4: Problem so far for them. 146 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,279 Speaker 2: But that to me, is the entire key to this game. 147 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 2: If the Seahawks can get home with four like they've 148 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 2: done all year long, I think they win. 149 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 4: If they don't, to me, it's. 150 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: The cost up Darren squarely at Will Campbell as we're 151 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: talking about this, all right, me, let me go back 152 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: to the quarterback, Sam Donald. When did he win you 153 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: guys over there in Seattle. 154 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 2: Probably on that Thursday night game when they were getting 155 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 2: drilled and Sam Darnald put. 156 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 4: The team on his back. I mean, dude, you got 157 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 4: to remember. 158 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 2: In the last two wins against the Rams, the Rams 159 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 2: scored thirty seven and thirty one. They scored sixty eight 160 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 2: points and they lost. They pushed around the dark side 161 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 2: defense a little bit, They had their way, Sean McVay 162 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 2: had his way with Mike McDonald in both those games. 163 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 2: But they won because of Sam Donald putting this team 164 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 2: on his back and coming back in. 165 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 4: The fourth quarter. I remember being at the NFC Championship, guys, and. 166 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 2: I'm sitting there before that third and seven, about three 167 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 2: and a half minutes to go, Hawks have the ball 168 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 2: inside their own thirty. They got I get a first 169 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 2: down and the Rams are going to get the ball 170 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 2: back with a chance to take the lead.

How do you top what 429 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: they did last time with this? That's all you gotta 430 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 1: do is have Ray Fines do this scene.

We watched the video from Jamiroquaise, 442 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:09,679 Speaker 1: so it all comes back together. 443 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean really for the pregame show. I mean, 444 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:14,640 Speaker 3: you know we can do that for the super Bowl 445 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 3: pregame show. 446 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 1: Let's do that instead. Apologize first, I did Frostburg. I'm 447 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,680 Speaker 1: not apologizing to Sam Donald before he wins the super Bowl. 448 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 1: I'm not. You don't apologize before somebody does something great. 449 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,640 Speaker 1: But he's already done gotten them to the super Bowl. 450 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,440 Speaker 1: You're you're a legend just forgetting there. I mean, you're softy. 451 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: I mean, Joe Namath could just be an absolute myth 452 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,120 Speaker 1: because all you have to do is showing the old Uh, 453 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: either the Simpsons or go back to when he was 454 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,159 Speaker 1: on the Brady Bunch. He was just an actor. He 455 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 1: wasn't really a football player. I would say this, I 456 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 1: would say, there's a reason why they're playing the Super Bowl. 457 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 1: If everything was so great, legacies were secure, okay, we 458 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 1: would need the game. But he overcame the Jets. Apologize, dude, 459 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 1: lots of what, dude, Lots of people overcome the I 460 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,199 Speaker 1: was seeing ghosts wind up doing well. He was well. 461 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 1: He also overcame the Panthers, you know, I forget about that, 462 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: and the Vikings kicked him out. You know, on the 463 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 1: list of teams that did Sam Dartafong, the Jets are like, okay, 464 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 1: second maybe, but I mean, but there's still other people 465 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 1: that did it the wrong way. I mean, come on, 466 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's how it goes. Man. 467 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 3: He's got to take some sort of ownership of the 468 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 3: fact that boy he's stunk with the Jets. 469 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: Sorry, and they gave him chances. He had three years there. Man, 470 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,360 Speaker 1: It's not chance they saw ghosts. 471 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 3: People have this view that the Jets just like like 472 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,479 Speaker 3: they didn't coach him at all and it didn't show up. 473 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,400 Speaker 1: It was like the first year Caleb Williams run in Chicago, 474 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,199 Speaker 1: nobody was sitting in the film room with him. The 475 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 1: guy brought the popcorn and the and the the drinks, 476 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: and and nobody would come and review film and tell 477 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 1: him how he could be better. Maybe three years of 478 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: that for Sam, I look at I look at things 479 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,400 Speaker 1: like sometimes the Jets do look like they don't practice. 480 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 1: But you know understand that. 481 00:22:57,320 --> 00:23:00,159 Speaker 3: You know, there's only so much you can put on 482 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 3: a coaching staff where I mean, Donald's the guy throwing 483 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,679 Speaker 3: the ball, and I mean it, Donald's the guy that 484 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 3: would miss guys who were open. I mean, that's the 485 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 3: biggest thing I told you about Sam do when he 486 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 3: went to Carolina. I told you Sam Donald watching when 487 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 3: he can't hit his first receiver, he gets in trouble. 488 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 3: He gets in trouble when he can't hit his first 489 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,439 Speaker 3: receiver and he's got to go through progressions because he 490 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 3: misses guys that are wide open. For a guy that 491 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 3: can keep the play alive as long as he can, 492 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,199 Speaker 3: because he's kind of like Ben Roethlisberger what he used 493 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,160 Speaker 3: to do in that in those situations where I could 494 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 3: stay in the pocket, little deft. 495 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,160 Speaker 1: I'm a little bit more mobile than you think I am. 496 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 1: He was able to do that, but he would still 497 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:37,119 Speaker 1: miss guys who were open. 498 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 3: Right, So okay, now when you have trouble hitting your 499 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 3: first receiver, did the Jets really have a good number 500 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 3: one receiver? 501 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 6: No? 502 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,399 Speaker 1: They didn't, Right, the Jets didn't do him a lot 503 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 1: of favors. 504 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 3: But again, Donald, you know you still have to own 505 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 3: it a little bit, right, Jets didn't have a really 506 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:53,199 Speaker 3: good number one receiver the Panthers had. They tried to 507 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,440 Speaker 3: make it work with Dj Moore, and clearly Dj Moore 508 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 3: as much more of a complimentary wide receiver. 509 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 1: When did Darnald hit it big? Heyho or his receivers 510 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 1: the last two years? Justin Jefferson, who is the best 511 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 1: receiver in football. I mean not this year because he 512 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: was awful, but it wasn't his fault. But Justin Jefferson 513 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 1: and now Jackson Smith and Jigba, who has become the 514 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 1: best receiver in the NFL. Right, these are two guys 515 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 1: who are. 516 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:19,479 Speaker 3: Unbelievably talented and Smithnjigba, it was making his way up. 517 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 3: He was really good last year, took a big step 518 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 3: this year. Again, he's like Marvin Harrison, I don't know 519 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 3: how the guy is open being able to you look 520 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 3: at every pattern he runs and you go, there's nobody 521 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 3: close to him. How do you not have your best 522 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 3: dB in his pocket at some point? How do you 523 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 3: not have How is he open when they're bracketing him 524 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 3: and you can still find him? So, yeah, things a 525 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,159 Speaker 3: little bit easier for Darnald when, hey, when your first 526 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 3: option is either Justin Jefferson or Jackson Smith Njigba, Like, Okay, yeah, 527 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 3: I get that he's gonna be a lot better quarterback then, 528 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 3: So understand where there's you know, hey, with Sam a 529 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 3: little bit, there's some thing's going on. There's some things 530 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 3: that maybe you know, we saw with the Jets and 531 00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 3: the Panthers that made Sam Darnold. Okay, he can't do X, 532 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 3: Y and Z, but he can do a B and C. 533 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,120 Speaker 3: Let me ask you Distin's on a team. When he's 534 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 3: on a team and he's got that number one receiver 535 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 3: he can go to, things are okay. But when he 536 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 3: has to be the guy the offense is built around, 537 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 3: He's not someone that's going to create all that offense 538 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 3: that you would expect the great quarterbacks to create. 539 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, and theory you actually put a team around him. 540 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm fearful for our guy Frostburg because there's 541 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 1: a rumor that one of your old Jets guys might 542 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: be creeping around their offensive meeting rooms here in short order. 543 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 1: But we'll get to that as it goes. Let me 544 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: ask you, by Sunday afternoon, before this Super Bowl kicks off, 545 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,879 Speaker 1: what's the over under on the number of former Vikings 546 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 1: that will throw shade at their current quarterback and the 547 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:48,400 Speaker 1: coach and the administration while still taking paychecks from them 548 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: over how they treated Sam Darnold. Right, because Aaron Jones 549 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 1: added his name to the list, you had justin Jefferson 550 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 1: say what he did last weekend? And one by one, 551 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: oh yeah, Sam was here, and Aaron Jones want to 552 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,119 Speaker 1: even so far as to say, and then there was 553 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones. 554 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 3: Look, and let's be honest that the the the Jets 555 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 3: got ridd of like the problem that's running on it. 556 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 3: The Jets got rid of Sam Donald when he's stung, 557 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,400 Speaker 3: right he was. There's nobody who saw it that time. 558 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 3: And this is why everybody's doing the whole revision his history. 559 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 3: Oh the Jets fault. The Jet's fault, the Jets fault. 560 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 3: Blah blah blah. Nobody at that time thought Sam Donald 561 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 3: was great. You know how I know that because they 562 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 3: had to shuttle him off for low round picks. To 563 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,479 Speaker 3: the Panthers who brought him in, and Baker Mayfilix, they 564 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 3: were both reclamation projects that you were hoping, Hey, maybe 565 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 3: Matt Rule could make it work, Matt Rules showing you wow, 566 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 3: really not cut out for the NFL. But it's not 567 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 3: like Sam Darnald was so good and they cut bait 568 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 3: on him, and look at it. 569 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 1: I mean, nobody, nobody was high on Sam Donald. If 570 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:48,880 Speaker 1: he was still if everybody thought he was still gonna 571 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 1: be that good, somebody would have snapped him up or 572 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,239 Speaker 1: the Jets would have kept him. It took him a 573 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 1: long journey to get here. 574 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,199 Speaker 3: Because that's the big point about Darnald is that what 575 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 3: you see is that there is a system for every 576 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:04,639 Speaker 3: highly drafted quarterback, right not for every single quarterback, because 577 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,400 Speaker 3: there's reasons guys get drafted in the third, fourth, fifth round, 578 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:09,159 Speaker 3: because hey, these are guys that are lucky if they 579 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:10,919 Speaker 3: stick around in the NFL. Once in a while, you 580 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 3: get a gem from a guy in the third round 581 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,120 Speaker 3: or later, whether it's a Russell Wilson or a Tom Brady. 582 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: But most of all, okay, those are guys that don't stick. 583 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: But guys who were drafted high, they have the pedigree, 584 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,199 Speaker 1: they have the talent, the evaluation, but they need the 585 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,400 Speaker 1: right system. And as you've seen with Mayfield and Darnald 586 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: from the same draft class back in twenty eighteen, Yeah, 587 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:33,719 Speaker 1: there's a system for every one of those highly drafted quarterbacks. 588 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 1: You just have to find it. Like poor Josh Rosen 589 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 1: never found his system right. He was a guy. 590 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 3: He was just as highly coveted in that draft class 591 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 3: as those guys were, right Josh Allen, same thing. Josh 592 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:49,119 Speaker 3: Allen found the right system right away. Josh Josh Rosen 593 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 3: did not. He's out of the game, right He's not 594 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 3: even around, never really got a chance, had one part 595 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 3: of a year, and then they got rid of him 596 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 3: right away, Like he never even had a chance. Darnald 597 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 3: had three years, bigger Mayfield had four years, and it 598 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,159 Speaker 3: took them to bounce around a bit to find another place. 599 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 3: There is a system for these guys, but finding it 600 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 3: is a little more difficult than just to say, oh, 601 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 3: the Jets you screwed it up, and that is the 602 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 3: most knowing how much I can't stand at him Gase 603 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 3: and how bad a coach I knew he was when 604 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:16,440 Speaker 3: they hired him. 605 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 1: I'm still gonna say that. See, I didn't even name him. 606 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 1: I wanted to wait until Frostburg was back through the 607 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 1: glass before I named Adam case As. I alluded to 608 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: the former Jets coach that I will take a taco 609 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: into one might end up being an offensive assistant there 610 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:37,919 Speaker 1: with the Chargers. Soon enough, Taco Tuesday takes on a 611 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 1: whole new meaning. But that might have been the most 612 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 1: full throated endorsement and defense of the Jets. I think 613 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 1: I've ever heard anybody make I know. I mean, these 614 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 1: all the guys on the other side of that, I 615 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 1: got Brandon, I got Justin and Tyshert looking at me. 616 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: Steve Desager doesn't know what to think of what you 617 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 1: just brought out, because nobody defends the Jets. 618 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 3: And now you're trying to look I'm the look. I'm 619 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 3: the guy apologized. 620 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: You wouldn't stop, would apologize it, just stop. Prosperg worry 621 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: about Luka Dacics coming back, worry about that. No, I mean, 622 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 1: look the look I tell you the Jets are terrible. 623 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: Whatever the Jets do is wrong. Right, I understand that 624 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: whatever they do in the draft this year is going 625 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 1: to be wrong. Whatever quarterback they pick, it's gonna be wrong. 626 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 1: Whatever the Jets do is wrong. This is what they do. 627 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 1: Taking Sam Donald was wrong. Had they not taken Sam Donald, 628 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: that would have been wrong too. So it doesn't matter. 629 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 1: But get that, you know, it's a little bit more 630 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 1: than just let me blame the organization. You know, it's 631 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 1: a little bit of low hanging fruit where I'm not 632 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: saying they don't deserve blame, because they do. Because Adam 633 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 1: Case was terrible, right, he was terrible head coach. But 634 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 1: Donald had a lot, he had chances to flash and 635 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: he never went on the Jets. Right, you look at 636 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 1: look at Trevor Lawrence. 637 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 3: Took him three coaches to try to figure out and 638 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 3: finally have a Pro Bowl caliber season, you know, with 639 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 3: with with the Jacksonville. 640 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 1: Jays coach in that first year, it took me. It 641 00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 1: wasn't very long either. It's but also you know when 642 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 1: you said the low hanging fruit, Smith, I mean, remember 643 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:06,479 Speaker 1: the old truism. Somehow, sometimes the most obvious answer is 644 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 1: actually the right. One, it's not Jets. The Jets are 645 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 1: bad with quarterbacks, right, it's one hundred percent they're bad 646 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 1: with quarterbacks. I get it. 647 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 3: But it's not like this was the only team Sam 648 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 3: Donald was bad with, And it's not like Gino Smith 649 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 3: was only bad with the Jets. 650 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 4: Right. 651 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 3: It's not like these these guys are bouncing around for 652 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 3: a reason and then they finally find it. Now, the 653 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 3: Jets are never the right fit for anybody, so don't 654 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 3: think it's gonna be them. But there's other teams out 655 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 3: there too. It's not like you can just say, hey, 656 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 3: I blame the Jets.

Time for Mike and I to 764 00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 1: give you our official picks for the game. And I 765 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 1: mean it's a difficult thing for me to think about 766 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 1: this game all week and think who I think is 767 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:07,520 Speaker 1: going to win and who I'm gonna be right about, 768 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 1: because I don't want to be right about either of 769 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:11,879 Speaker 1: them because it's the Patriots and Sam Donald, So as 770 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 1: a Jets fan, there's not a lot out there. However, Look, 771 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 1: this is gonna be a case of the Seahawks are 772 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: the better team everywhere. Right, they are the better team 773 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:24,960 Speaker 1: than the Patriots everywhere. Doesn't mean the Patriots don't have 774 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 1: a little bit of special sauce. Doesn't mean the Patriots 775 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 1: can't come up with a scheme that would get Sam 776 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 1: Donald to turn the football over three times, because that's 777 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:34,959 Speaker 1: the only thing that I could see that could cause 778 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 1: New England to win the game, is if Donald has 779 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:40,160 Speaker 1: a stinker and he turns a football over. But this 780 00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 1: is not the Bill Belichick coach Patriots, with whatever scheme 781 00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:45,920 Speaker 1: they have out there that we've seen for quarterbacks that 782 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:48,440 Speaker 1: he can make look absolutely silly. Right, This is the 783 00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: Mike vrabel pageot as good. 784 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:52,399 Speaker 3: Of a coach as he is, Seattle just has too 785 00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,399 Speaker 3: much and I think if they see Sam getting into trouble, 786 00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:57,480 Speaker 3: they're not going to continue to try to force a 787 00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 3: ball down everybody's throat. They're gonna run Kenneth Walker there. 788 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,759 Speaker 3: They're gonna be a little bit more ball control offensively, 789 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:04,879 Speaker 3: and I see this as a game that not only 790 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 3: does Seattle win, but they gradually pull away. It is 791 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 3: a laugher in the second half. I would say forty 792 00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:14,359 Speaker 3: three to eight would be my final, but already beat 793 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:16,400 Speaker 3: the Broncos by that. So I'll say forty two to 794 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 3: seven Seahawks and win the Super Bowl and win it big. 795 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:23,839 Speaker 1: So what you're telling me is Sam Donald is then 796 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:27,359 Speaker 1: your Super Bowl MVP. He's currently plus one fifteen. That's 797 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 1: the thing is, I don't see this as a Donald 798 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 1: four touchdown game. I see this as a Hey, Donald 799 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:37,000 Speaker 1: throws a couple of touchdowns, Walker as a short touchdown 800 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 1: run or two. 801 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:41,880 Speaker 3: The defense plays extremely well. Obviously Donald's the overwhelming favorite. 802 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 3: But if you're looking for a long shot for MVP, 803 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 3: you know, we. 804 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 1: Talked to Softy Mailer, mister Seattle, longtime KJR afternoon host. 805 00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:51,279 Speaker 3: He talked about how the Seahawks front four. If they 806 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:53,479 Speaker 3: can get home without blitzing, that's gonna be it for them. 807 00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:55,880 Speaker 3: I'm gonna give you this. You want a long shot 808 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 3: guy for MVP, and it pains me to say this 809 00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:01,320 Speaker 3: because you know former Jit, but Leonard Williams at plus 810 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:05,440 Speaker 3: ten thousand could be that guy. Couple of sacks, forced fumble, 811 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 3: fumble recovery. Hey, you're looking for somebody to have a 812 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 3: big game because you don't get the big game from 813 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 3: Jackson Smith, the jigbo who's seven for one hundred and 814 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:15,640 Speaker 3: forty six and two touchdowns or Darnald throws for one 815 00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 3: hundred and ninety and two scores. 816 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 1: You're looking for a long shot guy. Leonard Williams is 817 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 1: my guy. Look at you going way off the raidar. 818 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:24,279 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be a close game. I think 819 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:27,239 Speaker 1: the Patriots defense. I know we've talked a lot about 820 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:30,640 Speaker 1: the schedule and they've been dismissed at every turn, and 821 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:33,920 Speaker 1: yes they've had some breaks along the way, but I 822 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:36,040 Speaker 1: think they'll be up to the task here at least 823 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 1: to keep it close. I do have Seattle winning the game. 824 00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 1: I'll take the Patriots plus the four and a half, 825 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,560 Speaker 1: so I've got a twenty four to twenty one final. 826 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:48,239 Speaker 1: Get a little bit frisky when you get down to 827 00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:53,880 Speaker 1: it with a Cooper Cup and thep he's also at 828 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 1: plus ten thousand, or if you really want to get frisky. 829 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:00,400 Speaker 1: One hundred and twenty five to one. How about a 830 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:04,879 Speaker 1: little a J barner because in red zone situations he's 831 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 1: got eleven push pushes on the year. Well, you just 832 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:09,960 Speaker 1: take the for sure bet and go with Sam Darnold. 833 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 1: Well that's easy to go pick Sam. Are you okay? 834 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 1: What's a long shot pick here? Because obviously you do 835 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 1: apologize as a long shot bet. 836 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, dude, if he wins the super Bowl, 837 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 3: we have a comedy. 838 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:23,280 Speaker 1: You got you gotta wait till after that happens. 839 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 3: Man, you gotta play that. There's a reason why it's 840 00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:26,880 Speaker 3: the biggest sporting event in the world. You don't do 841 00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:28,320 Speaker 3: it before that, you do it after. 842 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:31,200 Speaker 1: It's kind of like a lot of people were apologizing 843 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:33,960 Speaker 1: to Matthew Stafford today after he won the MVP. Maybe 844 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:38,960 Speaker 1: all those detractors maybe came on board once and realizing 845 00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 1: his dominance and greatness and Sam Darnold, a win here 846 00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 1: puts him on path maybe to the Hall of Fame 847 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:50,000 Speaker 1: as well. Maybe he'll ten years. We're talking talking to 848 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 1: Jason Cole going, I don't know, Darnald going to the 849 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,239 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame. All right, let me just stomach and 850 00:39:57,520 --> 00:39:58,960 Speaker 1: try to come to grips with the fact that he 851 00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 1: could win the Super Bowl for then we'll get to 852 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:02,960 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame stuff. All Right, you and me, two 853 00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 1: little old men going to Canton, OHI to watch the 854 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:10,480 Speaker 1: enshrinement of Sam. Let's go. Yeah, let me just understand 855 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:11,759 Speaker 1: that that's okay there. 856 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 3: There's sometimes you need to you need to swallow news 857 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:18,440 Speaker 3: that that hit you pretty difficult in bits and pieces. 858 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 1: That's like a bigger piece to bite off. That's gonna 859 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 1: be in the in the future. Okay, let's worry about 860 00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:25,480 Speaker 1: that one in the future. I don't want to. We'll 861 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:29,000 Speaker 1: talk about that on Monday night, you know, when I 862 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 1: don't apologize and then hey, Sam gets presented by Adam Gase. 863 00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,279 Speaker 1: You know when we drafted him, I knew he was 864 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:38,480 Speaker 1: gonna be really good. Hey, thanks, coach, You've always been 865 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 1: the best coach I've ever I developed a hankard for tacos. 866 00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 1: I can't even imagine what that would be harm I can't. 867 00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 1: I can't even imagine. I think that'd be the end 868 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:50,800 Speaker 1: of you. 869 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:53,000 Speaker 3: Let me just deal with Sunday first, okay.
