1
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,719
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Jet Penny Tin Pod. Yet there again

2
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 1: and here joined as always by our star C P. Chad.

3
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:21,600
Speaker 1: The Jets win a game in Dallas when they struggle

4
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:24,639
Speaker 1: at times, overcame a lot of mistakes, but that's four

5
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 1: in a row, now is that a sign of a

6
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 1: good football team? Where hey, a lot of things went

7
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:34,479
Speaker 1: against them early, a number of penalties, Randy Ballock the

8
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 1: new kicker, he struggled, missed extra point and a field goal,

9
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 1: and the Cowboys had success running against the Jets at

10
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 1: times darrenm fed and goes for over a hundred yards.

11
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:48,519
Speaker 1: And with all that being said, the Jets found a

12
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 1: way to win in the fourth quarter. I think if

13
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 1: your cup is half full, that's certainly the way to

14
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 1: look at the game. If your cup is half empty,

15
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 1: there's certainly a lot of things that are concerns that

16
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: you want to get corrected. Moving into New England, my

17
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:09,399
Speaker 1: impressions of the game, um was that as a player,

18
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 1: you get on the plane going while we want and

19
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 1: we feel good about that, but we do not feel

20
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: very good about how we want and how we played.

21
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 1: And I think when you're looking at a team that

22
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: you know it was on another quarterback hat four interceptions

23
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 1: um and was just struggling. Uh. From the Jets perspective,

24
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 1: they didn't do what they needed to do to put

25
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: the team away and to have a convincing victory. Now,

26
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,959
Speaker 1: with that being said, you walk away as a victory,

27
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 1: which is a great feeling. Now you're moving into this week,

28
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 1: and maybe this is a good thing for the team

29
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: moving into this week with a little bit of edge

30
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,320
Speaker 1: almost coming off of that game feeling like, you know what,

31
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,559
Speaker 1: we didn't play very well, almost felt like a loss.

32
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: We've got to get some things corrected, and it gets

33
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 1: our attention moving into the New England week. What do

34
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 1: you think about Ryan Fitzpatrick's performance again when the game

35
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: was on the line, he got the Jets in position

36
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 1: to win. I certainly think, you know, the that's part

37
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: of the game was the last part of the game,

38
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 1: because when the team needed to uh put their foot

39
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: down and focus in and come away with points in

40
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 1: the victory, they were able to do that, and they

41
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,639
Speaker 1: made some big plays and Ryan certainly at the forefront

42
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 1: of those big plays being made. And so that was

43
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 1: the biggest positive out of it, was that through all

44
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: the adversity and through the struggles in the game, They're

45
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: able to put that behind them on the road in

46
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter and come up with ten major points, uh,

47
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 1: to be able to come away with the win. What's

48
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 1: the mindset you think this week? Now? The Jets host

49
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 1: the New England Patriots, and Todd Bulls set it here early.

50
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,959
Speaker 1: He set the tone early said, it's a big game

51
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: because we have to win. It's not a big game

52
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 1: because it's the Patriots. I completely agree, it's a big

53
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 1: game because of the situation that they're in. UH. Certainly

54
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: doesn't have anything to do with the opponent. From a

55
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 1: fans perspective, it makes it even a little bit juicy

56
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 1: here because of the opponent. But from the team's respective

57
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 1: it's a big game because of the situation and the

58
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: fight that they are in. Uh in the playoff run

59
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,399
Speaker 1: and so UH. What I expected Jets to really take

60
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: a hard look at this week based upon last week's

61
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 1: performance is the the play of the offensive line in

62
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 1: the trenches and how they need to protect the quarterback better.

63
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 1: I thought that the Cowboys got a solid pass rush

64
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 1: on Ryan Fitzpatrick, did some things to make him uncomfortable,

65
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 1: make him move around, pull the ball down that can't

66
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 1: happen this week, and it's gonna be a tough task

67
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 1: because you're playing a Patriots team that's number one in

68
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 1: facts and they're built differently Defensively, This Patriots team is

69
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: compared to years in the past where they've had big,

70
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 1: solid linebackers, didn't move well in space, they stopped to

71
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 1: run really well. This team moves really well in space

72
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: and they have speed at these positions, and so this

73
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 1: is going to be quite the task and challenged for

74
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 1: the Jets offense. So how do you think Jean Gaily

75
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: attacks this matchup? We know what happened in the first meeting.

76
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 1: The Jets played a tough ball game, ultimately lost thirty

77
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 1: to twenty three, and we set at the time no

78
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 1: moral victories. But from an offensive perspective, the Patriots went

79
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: out of their way to take Brandon Marshall out of

80
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 1: the ball game, double teaming him in a big time way.

81
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 1: And then also Chris Ivory. They stacked the box as

82
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 1: we anticipated, and he got seventeen carries and managed forty

83
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: one yards in that matchup. Well, you're exactly right, Eric,

84
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,039
Speaker 1: I think that number one. You have to go back

85
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: and look at how the Patriots attacked the Jets in

86
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: the first game, and that was certainly really obvious about

87
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: a double teaming bracket coverage on Brandon Marshall. There was

88
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:51,279
Speaker 1: no disguising, no hiding what their plan was. It was

89
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: to take fifteen out of the ball game. So what

90
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: you have to do, I believe as an offense, you

91
00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: really gotta find ways for uh Decker and Power to

92
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 1: make big time plays in this game. When Brandon Marshall

93
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,799
Speaker 1: does get single coverage, you want to make a point

94
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: to throw the ball his way. And when he gets

95
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 1: double coverage, that means that Pal and Deck are gonna

96
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 1: have single coverage. They need to be higher on the

97
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 1: priority list when that happens, and you just kind of

98
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: keep working those combos and building those plays to where

99
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: when you do have the opportunity to throw it to Brandon,

100
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 1: you do, But if they take it away, you've got

101
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,840
Speaker 1: a great combination with the other two. I look forward

102
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,560
Speaker 1: to seeing how much empty no running backs in the

103
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 1: backfield that the Jets use. I think that formation and

104
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: those types of spread formations may play to their advantage,

105
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: especially with how well below Poal was playing and what

106
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: he's been able to do both running and catching his football.

107
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 1: I mean, he's done an outstanding job and he is

108
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: certainly one of those players. Similar to how the Patriots

109
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 1: have used their running back use Pal and space to

110
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 1: UH to really create a lot of good yardage on

111
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 1: the offensive side, how do you think the Patriots try

112
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,480
Speaker 1: to counter that if Chien does come out with a

113
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 1: lot of empty formations five wides, four wides, those kind

114
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:11,279
Speaker 1: of sets on Sunday. I think one of the keys

115
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 1: to this game is going to be in game adjustments

116
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 1: by both sides. There's going to be a chess match

117
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: here to start in the first quarter to see how

118
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: each team is playing on each side, and then really

119
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 1: look for the end game adjustments second, third, and fourth

120
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,039
Speaker 1: quarters to see how they adjust to the different formations

121
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 1: and the variations that each team gives itself. So UM,

122
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 1: I think that the Patriots will they've got to take

123
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 1: away fifteen and they have take away Brandon Marshas. You

124
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: can't let him beat you, And then you have to

125
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:44,040
Speaker 1: mix up your coverages and and things like that, UH

126
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: to UH defend Decker and Pal. But the biggest way

127
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: and the best way to defend the passing game is

128
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: to get to the quarterback and any time that you've

129
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,799
Speaker 1: seen Tom Brady struggle or the New England Patriots struggle

130
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 1: on offense, it's when the opponent has been able to

131
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 1: get to him quickly. It's the same way with this

132
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 1: Jets offense. Can they get the rhyme Fitzpatrick and make

133
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 1: him move around? Uh? To counteract that, one of the

134
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: things that Jets can do is use the quarterback movement plays,

135
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: the bootleg, the sprint out, the d play actions where

136
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 1: he's moving the pocket and the and the throwing point

137
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 1: is different from a typical drop back growing point. That's

138
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: the way you can counteract that. Is it important to

139
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 1: get i'veory started or not necessarily because, like we've talked

140
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 1: about before, you know what the Patriots want to do

141
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: and they want to take away your balance. But with

142
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 1: that being said, it seems like the Jets would be

143
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 1: comfortable coming out and spreading the field and putting the

144
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: ball in Fitzpatrick's hands. Yeah. I think I think it's

145
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: important maybe to think past to set up to run

146
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: this game and to kind of almost flip your mindset

147
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 1: and hopefully, uh, you're a successful in the passing game

148
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 1: and the play action game, which then we'll set up

149
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,559
Speaker 1: Ivory later on in the game and let him wear

150
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 1: on them and beat up on their him in the

151
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 1: second half, and not just trying to come out and

152
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 1: established to run early. Because if that happens and you

153
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 1: don't succeed in that, and now you give um tom

154
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: Brady in the offense of the New England Patriots offense

155
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 1: and more chances on the field, that doesn't bode well

156
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 1: for the Jets as a team. So I think it's

157
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: going to have to be a mixture, but I think

158
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 1: it may be more of a set up the pass

159
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 1: first and then work to run second. Do you think

160
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 1: the Jets are a better team right now than the

161
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: one that went to New England and late October? I

162
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 1: think they are. I think they have found their stride.

163
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: I don't think they were completely in their stride so

164
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 1: to speak, when they went to New England earlier in

165
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: the year. I think they're a better team, They're more

166
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 1: complete team. I think that these uh last few games

167
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: has allowed certain players on each side of the ball

168
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 1: to come to the forefront and show their value. Calvin

169
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:02,079
Speaker 1: Pryor showing his value. Um, you look on the Leonard

170
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,679
Speaker 1: Williams showing his value. You look on the offensive side

171
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 1: of noon Law being able to make a few plays,

172
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 1: bilal Powe really coming to the forefront making play. So

173
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: they've been able to become a more complete team since

174
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: that first matchup. Give me a magic number? How many

175
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: points do the Jets have to score? In your mind

176
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 1: to win this ball game? I think this is a

177
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 1: thirty point game, no doubt about it. I think the

178
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: team who scores thirty win, whether it be a thirty

179
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 1: to twenty four or thirty to thirty to twenty seven

180
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: tight game. I think that magic number is somewhere around

181
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 1: the thirty point mark. All right, I asked you this

182
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 1: all the time. We talked about it off there on

183
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:48,199
Speaker 1: their audio slow down Brady and Company. And he continues

184
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:54,439
Speaker 1: to win despite being decimated by injuries. What a season.

185
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 1: He's at thirty five touchdown passes, six interceptions each and

186
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,080
Speaker 1: every week they're putting up number. Rob Gronkowski is still

187
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 1: a little bit banged up, sixty six sketches, eleven touchdowns.

188
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 1: But the Patriots could be without Danny Amendola was their

189
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,680
Speaker 1: second leading receiver. We don't expect Julian edelt want to

190
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: be in the lineup. We know Dion Lewis has gone

191
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 1: out of the lineup for some time, and you know

192
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: you have to go all the way down and look

193
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: at a guy like James White to say that's your

194
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,959
Speaker 1: fifth leading receiver. But Brady's still getting it done with

195
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: who overs out there on the field and guys like

196
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 1: Brandon lafallon outside as well. Yeah, I think it starts

197
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 1: with Gronkowski. I think the Jets really have to focus

198
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: on Gronkowski similar to how Patriots are going to focus

199
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 1: on Marshall. Uh, that's the guy. It's the guy, regardless

200
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,959
Speaker 1: if if everybody's healthy or not. Gronk is the guy.

201
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 1: It centers around him and the matchups, the physicality that

202
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: he creates, the big playability he creates. He is the guy.

203
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: The Jets have to force James, why, Brandon las Fail,

204
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 1: Brandon Bolden, other players to win the game that they

205
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 1: cannot allow Gronk to control the game. Secondly, and probably

206
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 1: more important than Gronk is the pressure on Brady and

207
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: can the Jets be able to get used four and

208
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 1: five pass rushers to get the Brady fast create some

209
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: schemes where a guy comes free. Uh, Buffalo had success

210
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 1: with that. Other teams have had success. Pittsburgh had a

211
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 1: little bit of success earlier in the year creating getting

212
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: guys free to Brady moving him off his spot. That

213
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,439
Speaker 1: as the two keys for the Jets defense. And then

214
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 1: the third thing I think be interesting to see how

215
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 1: do they use Derell Reevis in this mindset? Do they

216
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 1: um putting him on the second or third receiver and

217
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 1: use more double teams on Gronk with a safety in

218
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 1: the linebacker or there, you know, another corner to create

219
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:56,200
Speaker 1: matchups that way? Do they use some more zones? Uh

220
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,319
Speaker 1: that could be uh, you know, something that could uh

221
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: affect them as well. So be interesting to see how

222
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 1: the Jets use those matchups. It wouldn't be crazy talk

223
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 1: to put reevus Gronk a little bit and Brackett with

224
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 1: the Calvin Prior wouldn't be crazy at all. Um, But

225
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 1: I don't think you could major in that, you know.

226
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 1: I think you've got to be able to mix it up.

227
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: So it's gonna be interesting to see and we may

228
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 1: see some end game adjustment. We may see, Hey, we're

229
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,840
Speaker 1: going into the game as a Jets defense with this mindset.

230
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 1: We've got two or seet three things that we have

231
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:32,319
Speaker 1: in our back pocket if that first mindset doesn't work

232
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: and doesn't play to our advantage. So uh, the end

233
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 1: game adjustments is gonna be really interesting to see what

234
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 1: happened in the second, third, and fourth quarters. Well, you

235
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 1: said it, the Jets have to get to Brady, But

236
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 1: how do you get to him. I don't even care

237
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 1: what's happening up front from their line perspective, because he

238
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 1: still merches on. He's been sacked thirty four times this season.

239
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,080
Speaker 1: But the ball comes out so quick, as you know,

240
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,680
Speaker 1: and don't you anticipate that the Patriots come out with

241
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:02,319
Speaker 1: a lot of spread. Look uh, spread looks themselves where

242
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 1: they're gonna try to stretch the Jets out and not

243
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,199
Speaker 1: sit there in the box. Remember that first game, Brady,

244
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 1: who was the leading rusher with fifteen yards. They didn't

245
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: even try to run the football. Well, the great thing

246
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 1: about the Patriots system, they don't believe in just doing

247
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:22,160
Speaker 1: what we do mentality and you have to stop us.

248
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 1: They believe in every week is a specific game plan

249
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: for that specific team, and if it calls for throwing

250
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 1: the ball fifty times and not running it, they're okay

251
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 1: with that. They're not interested in balance or any of

252
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 1: those statistical things that we get caught up in. They're

253
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 1: interested in what is going what it's going to take

254
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: to win the football game. So I certainly would imagine

255
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 1: that the Patriots use the spread formations and use the

256
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 1: empty packages, use the quick passing game UM and and

257
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 1: being able to get matchups against the Jet linebackers. So

258
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,680
Speaker 1: you may have to see more Nickel and dimes schemes

259
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 1: from the Jets defense with five and six defensive back

260
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 1: to be able to UH to stand those spreads formations

261
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,240
Speaker 1: and have the right matchups to cover the passing game. Yeah,

262
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 1: Nichols really the Jet space if you think about if

263
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 1: he's buster screens on the field so much, and then

264
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 1: like you're saying, you can throw out dime and dependent

265
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 1: on the package, you could have Marcus Williams out there,

266
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 1: who has been a tremendous this season, continues to be

267
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: a ball hawk. He's leading the team with six interceptions.

268
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 1: You mentioned it before, the Jets had four interceptions early

269
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 1: UH last week. He gainst the Cowboys, but Brady doesn't

270
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 1: turn it over. How frustrating you think that can that

271
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 1: be for a defense? And how much patience do you

272
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 1: gotta have when you play against him, because even if

273
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 1: he's off most of the time, you're never gonna find

274
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: a ballgame where he's turning over two or three times. Right,

275
00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: So what that means is you're tackling has to be tremendous,

276
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 1: and you know that he's going to make accurate throws.

277
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 1: You're gonna take away that big play capability with his

278
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 1: accuracy and limit him to making his underneath throws. And

279
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 1: when he does make those underneath throws, we've got to

280
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 1: have short tackling as a defense. That's what the Jets

281
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 1: are thinking. You've got to be able to tackle in

282
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 1: space and limit those yards after catch. If you do that,

283
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: I think that plays to your advantage. I mentioned prior before,

284
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 1: how good do you think he's buying in a second season,

285
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 1: because I don't think a lot of people realize that

286
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 1: stretch when the Jets did it really struggle for the

287
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 1: only time in two thousand and fifteen, he went out

288
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: against the Patriots and we saw what gronkowski, the damage

289
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 1: he did late and the Jets after that game that

290
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: started a one and four slide where they want to

291
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 1: five and five before recovering. But that defense looks a

292
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 1: lot different to me on the field. Well, it does.

293
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 1: And I think what I've been impressed with the most

294
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 1: is his maturation process from year one to year two.

295
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 1: I think he had such a big expectations placed upon

296
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 1: him as a rookie and that's very difficult to handle.

297
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 1: And so he's been able to come back this year

298
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 1: and just you can just see the confidence that he's

299
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 1: playing with um the level of knowledge that he has

300
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,400
Speaker 1: compared to year one, and being able to use that

301
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 1: knowledge to his advantage, along with his physicality and how

302
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 1: he plays the game. And so it's been nice to see.

303
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 1: I mean, this has been a great year for him.

304
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 1: He is playing aggressive, he's playing with confidence, and he's

305
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 1: making play. When you look at the FC right now,

306
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 1: three teams nine O five, the Jets, the Steelers, and

307
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs, and do you think these teams,

308
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 1: all three of these teams could finish eleven and five?

309
00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: Where do you see potentially a loss in there? Because

310
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 1: you around, you played this game, You've watched this game

311
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 1: for so many years, Chad, is that the chances of

312
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 1: And let's put Denver in there as well, because Denver,

313
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 1: now with four losses, could slip back. I can't imagine

314
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: all these teams are gonna finish eleven and five no

315
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:24,440
Speaker 1: matter who they're playing. Well, the statistics say no, but um,

316
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 1: it would not surprise me Eric if it did happen,

317
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,119
Speaker 1: which really does not mode well for the Jets, but

318
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 1: it would not surprise me. When you look at Kansas

319
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 1: City schedule, I think people feel like they should finish

320
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 1: eleven or five. Pittsburgh offensively, UH is extremely on fire

321
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:46,399
Speaker 1: right now. They can play with anybody, outscore anybody, And

322
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,680
Speaker 1: to be honest with you, it's it's you have three

323
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: teams fighting for these two wild card spots that maybe

324
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 1: three of the hottest teams in the league period and

325
00:17:55,640 --> 00:18:00,199
Speaker 1: they're all vying in the same conference for two spots. Um,

326
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,640
Speaker 1: So it certainly makes for great drama. But it can

327
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:07,160
Speaker 1: certainly happen. I have seen it obviously with two eleven

328
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:11,399
Speaker 1: and five teams, but with three would certainly UH be

329
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 1: something that hasn't I don't even know if it's been

330
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 1: done before. All Right, so here's the schedule right now,

331
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 1: Let's go through through Kansas City. UH. Cleveland is in

332
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 1: Kansas City this weekend, and then Casey stays at home

333
00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 1: and they have a tremendous home field advantage there and

334
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 1: they faced the Raiders in weeks seventeen. I can see

335
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 1: the Silver and Black given them a running weeks seventeen,

336
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 1: but it's probably gonna be difficult to go in there

337
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 1: if the playoffs are on the line and beat a

338
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 1: Chiefs team who's won eight games in a row right now.

339
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 1: If they beat the Bronze this week, that's nine right.

340
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 1: I think the game to watch four of the week

341
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,879
Speaker 1: seventeen Oakland Kansas City. That's gonna be there tough as

342
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: I don't see the brown being able to uh force

343
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 1: enough effort and production to be able to beat Kansas

344
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:03,879
Speaker 1: City in Kansas City. Yeah, and then you look at

345
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 1: the Steelers. They're at Baltimore this week, and while it's

346
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:11,120
Speaker 1: been really a disappointing season for the Ravens, and then

347
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 1: they're at Cleveland divisional matchup, and maybe the Browns can

348
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,639
Speaker 1: provide some spunk, but they're gonna be heavily favorite in

349
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 1: both of those games. Don't you think Pittsburgh has a

350
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 1: similar road that Kansas City does? I think, um, I

351
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 1: don't think that Baltimore has enough firepower to be able

352
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 1: to keep up with the Steelers offense. And I think

353
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 1: you know Baltimore's defense is not the defensive old I

354
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 1: think both Steelers get that win in Baltimore, and and

355
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: you know, it would certainly take a tremendous effort by

356
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,880
Speaker 1: the Browns to be able to beat uh, the Steelers.

357
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 1: But I've seen crazier things happen. If you remember in

358
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: two thousand, when the Jets are trying to make a

359
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 1: playoff run, and Buffalo came in at about two and

360
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:58,360
Speaker 1: thirteen or two and twelve and week fourteen or fifteen

361
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,680
Speaker 1: and and stole a victory in the Meadowland to help

362
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 1: knock the Jets out of playoffs. Contitchen, I mean, that

363
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,920
Speaker 1: was one of those one of those times. So crazier

364
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,439
Speaker 1: things have certainly happened before. All Right, So here's the

365
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:14,400
Speaker 1: final team who is in the mix right now. They

366
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:18,119
Speaker 1: are the a f C West leaders. But that was

367
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: a devastating loss for the Broncos in Pittsburgh, a seventeen

368
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:28,040
Speaker 1: point lead over the Steelers. Dont Roethlisberger and Antonio Brown

369
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 1: and company got hot and they just could not stop

370
00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 1: them in the second half. So now you have a

371
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: Denver Broncos team who's tenant four and they host Cincinnati

372
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 1: on Monday Night, and then they host the San Diego

373
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:49,399
Speaker 1: Chargers in week seventeen. This Monday night matchup could be

374
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 1: huge for the Jets if they went out. Todd Bawls

375
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,159
Speaker 1: has his team focused on the Patriots, but I'm just

376
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,879
Speaker 1: saying from a fans perspective, that's what we're looking at

377
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 1: the sc landscape right now. Just from a as perspective,

378
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 1: if Cincinnati went into Denver and one on Monday Night,

379
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 1: the Jets would hold a tiebreaker over the Broncos, and

380
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:17,040
Speaker 1: that would mean the Chiefs would go into first place

381
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 1: in the f C West if they win, and if

382
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 1: they lose, they'd have more losses than the Jets anyway,

383
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:27,879
Speaker 1: So this Denver match up against the Cincinnati Bengals on

384
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:31,360
Speaker 1: Monday Night could be huge for a Jets fan if

385
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 1: the Jets take care of business on Monday. On Sunday,

386
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,439
Speaker 1: no question, two things. I think the Jets certainly have

387
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,679
Speaker 1: the toughest road um because they have to play the

388
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,920
Speaker 1: division leader and the best team of football at home,

389
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 1: and then they have to go to Buffalo, which is

390
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 1: extremely difficult to play late in the season or any

391
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,479
Speaker 1: time for that fact. And then uh so that's that's

392
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:57,359
Speaker 1: Number one. And then number two, the smoothest or the

393
00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,399
Speaker 1: best road for the Jets to get in would be

394
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 1: to win out and never mess it up, because they

395
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,680
Speaker 1: certainly have the toughest schedule out of those three teams

396
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,399
Speaker 1: that we're talking about, and you know, they're dealing with

397
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:13,440
Speaker 1: some quarterback issues with with Peyton's injury and and then uh,

398
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,720
Speaker 1: you know, and but then again, Cincinnati's also dealing with

399
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 1: with a quarterback issue as well, So it's going to

400
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,240
Speaker 1: be interesting. But I think that would be the way

401
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:26,119
Speaker 1: for the Jet to get in. If never stubbs, it's toe,

402
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 1: Jets continue to win and then Kansas City becomes the

403
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 1: division winner in the act. Yeah, and I don't know,

404
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 1: I know you're not breaking down those teams films, but

405
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,199
Speaker 1: how do you think Cincinnati does match up with Denver?

406
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 1: To me, that's a fascinating ball game because both sides

407
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,399
Speaker 1: of the ball one day night are gonna have a

408
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 1: lot of talent on the field. I was impressed with

409
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 1: Denver early. They just couldn't sustain it and offensively got nothing,

410
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 1: nothing in the second half against Pittsburgh. But you know,

411
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 1: like you're saying a J. McCarron, brock Swidler Cincinnati is

412
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 1: gonna have a lot to play for because they're sitting

413
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: there with three losses. Of course they want to first

414
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:12,640
Speaker 1: round by so there's plenty of steak in that ball game. Conversely,

415
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 1: if Dunver wins, they could be aligned for first round

416
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 1: by no question that that may be the game of

417
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 1: the week, um, no question about it. With the Jets

418
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 1: Patriots being right there in a close second. And when

419
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 1: you look at it, Cincinnati, um where they're a little

420
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 1: bit I think they're a little bit stronger defensively than

421
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh's defense. Um. But where Pittsburgh had success in the

422
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,760
Speaker 1: second half of that game against the Broncos was with

423
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:44,359
Speaker 1: his pass rush and being able to get to bronck

424
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,400
Speaker 1: Oswalder and shut down the running game and really move

425
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 1: make him move around and make plays, not allow his

426
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 1: big six six s frame to just sit in the

427
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 1: pocket and dissect you where in the first half they

428
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 1: couldn't get to him at all. So they were really efficient.

429
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 1: So it needs to be a great defensive effort from Cincinnati.

430
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,880
Speaker 1: And then you're looking at two backup quarterbacks that are

431
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,359
Speaker 1: being asked to manage the game properly. Hit the open guys,

432
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 1: allow the running games to come to fruition. So it's

433
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:13,159
Speaker 1: going to be one of those chess matches, and it

434
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:14,880
Speaker 1: should be one of those games. Is going to come

435
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 1: down to the fourth quarter bar in any crazy special

436
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 1: teams plays or or turnovers, and which backup quarterback and

437
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,119
Speaker 1: lead his team to victory. Well, let's hope that means

438
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 1: something for the Jets. Now fast forward again back to

439
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:32,959
Speaker 1: MetLife Stadium. What do you anticipate from the Jets fans

440
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: this week? Their team comes home on a four game

441
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 1: win streak, the Patriots are in town. Usually that means

442
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:43,399
Speaker 1: a little bit of a different feel. But I said

443
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,160
Speaker 1: it last night on the radio that it doesn't matter

444
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 1: who the Jets are playing this week, whether it's the

445
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,679
Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans, of Miami Dolphins, the San Diego Charges, Oakland Raiders,

446
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 1: they just gotta win. Well, I hope that Jeff fans

447
00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 1: and I know that they will. They should be extremely

448
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 1: fired up for this game. They should be extremely raucous. Uh.

449
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 1: This is uh some of the most excitement that this

450
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,440
Speaker 1: organization has experienced since the OH nine in two thousands,

451
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:14,960
Speaker 1: ten years with the a f C championship runs. Uh,

452
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: this reminds me of that run that we had in

453
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:21,080
Speaker 1: two thousands two those last few weeks. Uh, you know,

454
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,240
Speaker 1: going in and not knowing exactly what could happen, but

455
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,919
Speaker 1: knowing you have a shot and experiencing that energy in

456
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,399
Speaker 1: that field that I've experienced as a player, that was

457
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 1: really really special, one of the best moments of my career.

458
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:37,160
Speaker 1: And I expected to be the same uh this week

459
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 1: with Jet fans and MetLife Stadium, because this is one

460
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 1: of those special moments, a fan appreciation day. Uh. The

461
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 1: team is giving out white rally tiles. I anticipate the

462
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 1: place will be packed. It's gonna be a great atmosphere.

463
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,679
Speaker 1: All right, Well, I gotta wish you'd marry Christmas. This

464
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,720

Speaker 1: for the Jets team and this is what you play for,

477
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,200

478
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:44,639
Speaker 1: games that's really important for the organization to beat the

479
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:48,199
Speaker 1: Patriots and to really having a statement win. It's one

480
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 1: of those games that could really uh, you know, regardless

481
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,440
Speaker 1: of what happens with the rest of the year, this game,

482
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,720
