Speaker 1: No, here's Eric Kellett and Eric Coleman. Welcome to Inside
Speaker 1: the Jets broadcasting sports and Hamilton Park. Eric Coleman also,
Speaker 1: I want to thank Kyrie back in New York City,
Speaker 1: was handling the controls at ESPN. Justin here in Florn Park.
Speaker 1: Noah and Charles representing Jets three sixty but e the
Speaker 1: Jets have hit the midway point with the one in
Speaker 1: seven mark, so much positivity heading into the two thousand
Speaker 1: nineteen season, but the winds just haven't been there through
Speaker 1: half of the campaign. Now eight games to go. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it's you know, it was a promising looking
Speaker 1: into the uh, you know, in the off season, looking
Speaker 1: into the season, you you know, you and I talked
Speaker 1: about it. We expected seven to ten wins. You know,
Speaker 1: we expected to compete for the wild card spot, uh,
Speaker 1: barring injuries. But injuries have plagued this team. That's been
Speaker 1: a part of it. You know, perform much has been
Speaker 1: the other part. You know, you know, the Stars haven't
Speaker 1: been playing consistent, consistently good football. And that's what you
Speaker 1: need if you're gonna have a good football team. You
Speaker 1: need the first round picks, the free agents, you need
Speaker 1: them to be contributing. You need them to be playing
Speaker 1: solid Pro bowl level football, and the Jets aren't getting
Speaker 1: that out of the top players and inconsistent in the
Speaker 1: middle as well. Yeah, and you can't make excuses because
Speaker 1: every team in the National Football League does face the
Speaker 1: injury bug from time to time. But again, you go
Speaker 1: out in free agency, he signed c. J. Mosley because
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a culture changer and he's gonna be
Speaker 1: the dynamic playmaker. And he has played less than two
Speaker 1: games for you defensively, your offensive quarterback. Of course, the
Speaker 1: second year player out of USC, Sam Donald, goes out
Speaker 1: with Model M three games, comes back in the lineup,
Speaker 1: has made five starts and he's hit a roadbump here
Speaker 1: over the last three games. There's no doubt about that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it's been a combination of of guys not
Speaker 1: playing up to their potential. Uh, it's been you know
Speaker 1: a lot of the Jets beating themselves and you know,
Speaker 1: and you know it's time to to start correcting those mistakes.
Speaker 1: You know, stop getting the penalties that cost you a
Speaker 1: big play. You know, stop putting other teams in position
Speaker 1: to score and and and perform. You know, the it's
Speaker 1: time for the excuses to get out of the door.
Speaker 1: And it's time for guys to start stepping up to
Speaker 1: the plate and start playing good football like they expect.
Speaker 1: And why are the Jets in this position you mentioned
Speaker 1: before death? I thought before the season, like you mentioned that, Hey,
Speaker 1: this club the way it's constituted, could get anywhere from
Speaker 1: on the low one seven to maybe ten and challenge
Speaker 1: for a wild card spot. A lot of positive vibes
Speaker 1: throughout the summer, and then it started against the Buffalo Bills.
Speaker 1: This team had a sixteen nothing lead in the third quarter,
Speaker 1: that mostly goes down and things kind of unraveled from there.
Speaker 1: Darn never felt like himself in that ball game, even
Speaker 1: though he completed forty one and the Bills take home
Speaker 1: a seventeen sixteen victory. And then from there the Jets,
Speaker 1: it kind of spiraled away from them. Donald goes out,
Speaker 1: Trevor Simeon goes out, and Week two against the Cleveland Browns,
Speaker 1: you play Luke Falk for a couple starts. Donald ultimately
Speaker 1: comes back. He gives you that glimmeral hope against the
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. But the last three games just hasn't been
Speaker 1: there for this club. Offensively, they scored actually on opening
Speaker 1: possessions the last two games at thirty games that they
Speaker 1: had scored in their opening possession. But after established after
Speaker 1: established establishing that, I should say that offensive rhythm early
Speaker 1: in games, it's going away. It is, it is going away.
Speaker 1: Uh and and they gotta find a way to continue
Speaker 1: that that success of the first drive throughout the game.
Speaker 1: You know, teams are making adjustments and jets have to
Speaker 1: be able to adjust as well. But you know, with
Speaker 1: all these injuries that are happening, all the all the
Speaker 1: big players that are going out, it's opportunities for young
Speaker 1: guys to develop it and get those reps and really
Speaker 1: prove themselves. And there are a couple of couple of
Speaker 1: young players that are really stepping out and showing that
Speaker 1: they deserve to be on this team, that they deserve
Speaker 1: to be getting big minutes out there on the field,
Speaker 1: getting reps um and that's something positive to look at.
Speaker 1: You know, this team there there, the future is bright
Speaker 1: if the guys can just stop beating themselves. You know,
Speaker 1: you you talk about going into a game, it's it's
Speaker 1: hard enough in the NFL to win because of the
Speaker 1: talent level, and sometimes you're gonna get beat physically. The
Speaker 1: guy next across from you might just be bigger, but
Speaker 1: he might just be better than you, or he may
Speaker 1: just make a good play. But to go out there
Speaker 1: and beat yourself and not give yourself an opportunity. That's
Speaker 1: what's disappointing about watching the team when when they're the
Speaker 1: mental mistakes, when you see blown coverages, when you see penalties, Uh,
Speaker 1: can't do that too. If you win games. Winless Dolphins,
Speaker 1: we knew there were a dangerous animal. No pun intended.
Speaker 1: You go against a team who lost a one point
Speaker 1: decision of the Washington Redskins, had a halftime lead at Buffle,
Speaker 1: had a halftime lead at Pittsburgh. You knew it was
Speaker 1: a matter of time before this team was going to
Speaker 1: get a victory. You were just hoping it didn't come
Speaker 1: against you. But ten penalties for a hundred and five yards.
Speaker 1: We talked about hidden yards in the National Football League.
Speaker 1: You can't have a hundred and five yards marked off
Speaker 1: against you. No better, who are your playing? No, you can't,
Speaker 1: I mean, And a lot of those penalties came after
Speaker 1: great plays. You know, offensively, you get a you know,
Speaker 1: get a great play where running back make spring loose
Speaker 1: for a seventeen yard game is coming back for holding.
Speaker 1: You know that not only stops the momentum and stops
Speaker 1: that drive, but you know, if that play would have stood,
Speaker 1: maybe you would have got momentum. Ever know, you know,
Speaker 1: I always say there's three or four plays in the
Speaker 1: game that determined the outcome of the game. If you
Speaker 1: make a big play and take that momentum and continue
Speaker 1: to build off it, the game could be a completely
Speaker 1: different game. That just may have scored a touchdown or
Speaker 1: or something may have happened where things are different. But
Speaker 1: you don't give yourself a chance like that if you
Speaker 1: keep shooting yourself in the foot. But in the National
Speaker 1: Football League you were on playoff teams. How do you
Speaker 1: change that mindset? Because on the sideline, the Jets are
Speaker 1: in control. Early they go down to field seven nothing.
Speaker 1: Williams and number three overall selection out of Alabama picks
Speaker 1: up the first professional full sack, go three and out,
Speaker 1: get the ball back. You're right in position. You're inside
Speaker 1: the thirty yard line and scoring territory, holding penally. Two
Speaker 1: plays later, a sack, play later, miss field goal instead
Speaker 1: of fourteen nothing or ten nothing, seven nothing, But you
Speaker 1: still gotta be sitting there on the sidelines and say, hey, guys,
Speaker 1: we're gonna be fine. But instead they couldn't handle adversity
Speaker 1: against Miami. Ryan Fitzpatrick took that game over. Yeah. I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, a great way to handle adversity is to
Speaker 1: look around, you know, look at the man next to you.
Speaker 1: You know you're you're not just doing it for yourself.
Speaker 1: Maybe things aren't going well, Well, you know what, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna give it my all. I'm gonna make sure I'm focused.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make sure on where I'm supposed to be.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make sure I give it effort on this
Speaker 1: play for you, you know, for the man next to me,
Speaker 1: and he's depending on me, he has his family depending
Speaker 1: on me. And if the team looks at that, looks
Speaker 1: at each other like that, and has trust in one
Speaker 1: another and everybody gives their all, you'll stop making those
Speaker 1: mistakes and stop being selfish and having those selfish penalties
Speaker 1: hurting the team. What do you think defensively right now? Again,
Speaker 1: for a second consecutive week, we saw a team. First,
Speaker 1: it was Jacksonville. The previous week go fifty percent. Jacksonville
Speaker 1: was fifty percent on third downs before they knelt on
Speaker 1: the ball late when the game was over. The Dolphins
Speaker 1: converted fifty percent of the time on third downs as well.
Speaker 1: We know the Jets have been relatively strong against the
Speaker 1: run all year. They got the Ryan Fitzpatrick four times
Speaker 1: in all, but Fitzpatrick had a lot of success on
Speaker 1: the outside with Preston Williams and DeVante Parker and Mike A.
Speaker 1: Sick He got free a lot. Yeah, you know what
Speaker 1: it's it's winning one on one matchups, you know, on
Speaker 1: the perimeter. As a defense, I have to challenge that
Speaker 1: receiver when there's third down in five, third down and seven. Listen,
Speaker 1: they're not gonna be running go routes. Make them throw
Speaker 1: a deep route. That's a that's a more difficult ball
Speaker 1: to complete. The outside fade. It's tough for quarterback to
Speaker 1: to complete that challenge every other route. How about let's
Speaker 1: not give up a five yard cushion on a third
Speaker 1: down in five, you know, tighten up that coverage. Challenge
Speaker 1: those receivers fight for everything. Make them, you know, make
Speaker 1: it a fight. You know, let somebody beat you. Don't
Speaker 1: beat your don't get yourself beat by your alignment or
Speaker 1: by your you're playing soft and playing off coverage, and
Speaker 1: they just continue to just dink and dunk and convert
Speaker 1: third downs down the field and continue drives. You have
Speaker 1: to at some point in time have some pridea and
Speaker 1: challenge those receivers. Sometimes the receivers is gonna make a
Speaker 1: play in your Parker made that offense, fantastic one handed
Speaker 1: reception on Date Harriston in the end zone. But um,
Speaker 1: one of those plays there seems to be a miscommunication
Speaker 1: in a defensive backfield between Darryl Roberts and safety Jamal Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean they were there on the twelve yard line.
Speaker 1: Miami was on the twelve. That's we're in a Tampa
Speaker 1: two defense. We call it read too down in the
Speaker 1: red zone. A lot of teams played that defense. Uh,
Speaker 1: the corners playing uh the flat routes, the linebackers are
Speaker 1: playing underneath, and the middle linebackers closed in the middle.
Speaker 1: Is technically a three dep with two safeties high with
Speaker 1: the middle linebacker closed in the middle of the field.
Speaker 1: And you know, for whatever reason, Jamal thought he saw something.
Speaker 1: There's a flat route by the running back. He got
Speaker 1: a little curious, got out of his post and they
Speaker 1: ran a post right there, right where Jamal would have been.
Speaker 1: If he would have stayed disciplined and stayed in his assignment,
Speaker 1: that would have been an interception. Or Ryan Fitzpatrick never
Speaker 1: throws it into the sack. But that's what that's what
Speaker 1: happens when when when guys start start pressing, you want
Speaker 1: to make a play for your team, you want to
Speaker 1: do extra. You don't have to do extra, just do
Speaker 1: your job, do it to your best of your ability,
Speaker 1: and play within the scheme of the offense of the defense,
Speaker 1: and you get off the field. And that didn't happen.
Speaker 1: So we talked about depth. We have continued to talk
Speaker 1: about depth all year, and the Jets are gonna have
Speaker 1: to add to that not only this offseason, but in
Speaker 1: the off seasons after that. Joe Douglas has a lot
Speaker 1: of work on his hands. Offensive line, though has been
Speaker 1: shuffled throughout the year. Yesterday, Jonathan Harrison played center. There's
Speaker 1: a rookie at left tackle, and Chuma Adoga. Calvin Beecham
Speaker 1: hopefully is back this week against a Crosstown Giants Sunday
Speaker 1: at Medlife Stadium. We'll talk about that game later. Uh
Speaker 1: Brandon Shell back at right tackle. Brian winners at right guard,
Speaker 1: and that Alex Lewis is your left guard, because remember
Speaker 1: you started this season with Collecchiossemmily, who you thought was
Speaker 1: gonna be your left guard. So it seems like there's
Speaker 1: been a different lineup each and every week. What is
Speaker 1: happening between the line and the young quarterback right now
Speaker 1: to plays in the fourth quarter, Let's go over him
Speaker 1: the sack where the Jets are within the shadow of
Speaker 1: their own end zone, Miami disguising well, the corner comes
Speaker 1: over from Donald's right after it sure looked like the
Speaker 1: line shifted protection left. I mean, that's that's a great
Speaker 1: scheme by Miami. You know, Brian Flores isn't in this
Speaker 1: position as head coach of the Miami Dolphins for no reason.
Speaker 1: He did a great job in New England scheme in
Speaker 1: different teams, and he knows as a defense there's a
Speaker 1: certain there's certain timing that the call has to be made.
Speaker 1: Speak speaking the time and I gotta I'm gonna cut
Speaker 1: you off right back, which that's wide receiver Vincent Smith.
Speaker 1: And we have a lot of coverage stuff to get
Speaker 1: to with our guy Eric Coleman, Donald and the shotgun
Speaker 1: bunch set takes this tap drops looks my pros like
Speaker 1: Canarius Thomas easy his text FROs rust down a little
Speaker 1: pick play works to perfection. He runs right inside the
Speaker 1: twenty five inside the twenty and how to bounce up
Speaker 1: a dolphin eighteen yard line. Nick Needum bumped him out.
Speaker 1: Inside the Jets is presented by e Y Building a
Speaker 1: Better Working World Erica Allen and Eric Coleman here at
Speaker 1: Vanderbilt Sports and Spirits inside the Windham Hamilton's Park Hotel.
Speaker 1: Or Player Guest segment is presented by M ANDT Bank,
Speaker 1: the official community bank of your New York Jets. Without
Speaker 1: further ado, let's bring in Jets wide receiver Vincent Smith. Vincent,
Speaker 1: Sometimes when you need to play, somebody's got to step up,
Speaker 1: and you did yesterday. Miami had total control of that
Speaker 1: ball game seven right before that of the first half,
Speaker 1: and there you go. You're deep seventy eight yards almost
Speaker 1: to the house. Can you take us through the return? Uh? Yeah,
Speaker 1: they kick off they had before they had kicked it
Speaker 1: to my side deep into the end zone. So I
Speaker 1: was kind of looking for coming into that player that
Speaker 1: they probably trying to put it to my side. So
Speaker 1: I saw that ain't got the ball, and you know,
Speaker 1: really it was in the end zone. How to let
Speaker 1: it go? But it was closer, caught it, took off
Speaker 1: on read the coverage and broke a cup of tackles
Speaker 1: and tried to beat him with the side line. I
Speaker 1: wish I would have kept my feeder. Man. You ran
Speaker 1: through that little attempted tackle, a little little cornerback trying
Speaker 1: to take out your legs. I think guys get used to,
Speaker 1: I guess smaller return man where they can just get
Speaker 1: a shot on him and knock them down. But you
Speaker 1: you were strongly had to kept your legs going. That
Speaker 1: was a huge play man. How that feel? It felt
Speaker 1: great on you know, any player you can make in
Speaker 1: a game. It just makes you feel more established, makes
Speaker 1: you feel like you go make more Inside the Jets
Speaker 1: is supported by M ANDT bank. That fishal me bank.
Speaker 1: If you're New York, Jets fences so earlier on in
Speaker 1: the game time Montgomery's back deep because you guys have
Speaker 1: Trent and Cannon on into reserve right now. He gets
Speaker 1: banged up a little bit. I saw you line up
Speaker 1: on that first kickoff return a little bit to his
Speaker 1: right and he was deep. How was it different on
Speaker 1: that return. It was actually exactly the same. I'm the
Speaker 1: we're both deep, but I play a little bit up.
Speaker 1: He's the main return guard to the right, so I'll
Speaker 1: play off him. And like I said, they kicked that
Speaker 1: one over my head, so I was expecting kicking to
Speaker 1: my out side of again. And you know how to
Speaker 1: make them pay? What grand boyers say to you Jet
Speaker 1: Special teams coordinator when he came over the sideline, are
Speaker 1: you say a great job? You know the way to
Speaker 1: get his back in the game. Good run strong, you
Speaker 1: know all the stuff. Electacy now visit you went to
Speaker 1: a small school, limes Limestone College, but you you played
Speaker 1: some big time in football, you know, going to the
Speaker 1: Houston Texans being coached by guys like Andre Johnson, uh
Speaker 1: now coming to the Jets, Hines war Sean Jefferson. What
Speaker 1: is that like? What has that been like? Learning from
Speaker 1: those guys who have so much experience from from their
Speaker 1: playing years. It's a lot to take in, but it's
Speaker 1: great because I feel like I have such a high
Speaker 1: sailing from where I'm coming from, and you know, just
Speaker 1: to see him see what they're seeing me, and it
Speaker 1: makes me more confident go through it out there on
Speaker 1: the field. What's this year been like for you? Because
Speaker 1: you started in Houston with the Texans on their practice
Speaker 1: squad and the Jets signed yet late September. I believe
Speaker 1: the Uh, it's been crazy. You know, there's a lot
Speaker 1: of change over, but you know, it just helps you grow.
Speaker 1: I think, um, it's another way to further my career
Speaker 1: and become the player I want to be. Have you
Speaker 1: had that moment you know? I mean, obviously I hate
Speaker 1: to keep going back and I'm not trying to disrespect
Speaker 1: your school, but coming from a small school and then
Speaker 1: coming to the NFL, was there a moment where you
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously you're nervous, probably coming into your first
Speaker 1: training camp, like, man, can I play against these guys?
Speaker 1: Was there a moment when you're like, Oh, this is it?
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, this is all I have
Speaker 1: to do is go out here and show my talents.
Speaker 1: Was there a moment like that for you? Yeah, I'll
Speaker 1: say even before I even was picked up undrafted, going
Speaker 1: into the Pro day South Carolina and having a really
Speaker 1: good pro dam and proven that I can, you know,
Speaker 1: just compete with guys coming from that level, you know,
Speaker 1: that was questions as fast as you think we are
Speaker 1: a game move as well, it's as big as we
Speaker 1: think you are. And you know, comparing um to those
Speaker 1: guys just in the Pro Day and then having that
Speaker 1: momentum on me, and that's why I think I was like, Okay,
Speaker 1: I can do this. Did you have any kickoff return
Speaker 1: duties in Houston at all? Even going back to practice? Uh?
Speaker 1: Last season I didn't. Well, I was back up, and
Speaker 1: in this preseason I had it, and I had I
Speaker 1: think I had almost I think a thirty eight almost
Speaker 1: fifty yard return. So that's one of the things I
Speaker 1: was looking to try to take over in Houston. So
Speaker 1: I'm glad I can kind of bring it here. This
Speaker 1: is big for you now. Earlier on the season, I
Speaker 1: believe it was Week five against the Philadelphia Eagles. The
Speaker 1: Jets get on the board by calling your number. Can
Speaker 1: you take us through that end around? Um? You know
Speaker 1: what they call my formation? The formation I'm in, go
Speaker 1: line up and you know, Sam calls to play and
Speaker 1: Tie is talking to me. He was like, oh, you know,
Speaker 1: you just secute the ball getting around the corner on
Speaker 1: serial score. You know, That's exactly how it happened. It's
Speaker 1: probably the easiest touched on our score. That was a
Speaker 1: great play call in that area. Uh, sudden change, Um,
Speaker 1: And that's exactly what you did yesterday. You needed momentum play.
Speaker 1: You gave it. That fouled a turnover takeaway on special teams, Um,
Speaker 1: Eagles per suing everybody. The whole stadium was pursuing this
Speaker 1: way here, you're coming that way. But that was one
Speaker 1: of the fastest runs in the National Football League this
Speaker 1: season in terms of getting in the end zone. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Actually I was surprised. I felt like I got up
Speaker 1: to a good speed, but I didn't think I hit
Speaker 1: my top speed on the run. So you're one of
Speaker 1: these guys I think, who runs gracefully and you don't
Speaker 1: know how fast you're going because you are a tall
Speaker 1: guy about six three, a long long strider. Sorry, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think I look up a lot to Uh you
Speaker 1: same boat. You know, he's a big, fast guy. So
Speaker 1: I used to run track and love it. And that's
Speaker 1: one of guys look up to in terms of running
Speaker 1: and being that big receiver, being six ft three. What
Speaker 1: are some things that you had to work on? Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, being that big, that having that big size
Speaker 1: because I know, you know, it's a defensive back with
Speaker 1: the big receivers, that's a big target to get your
Speaker 1: hands on them and press coverage. What are some things
Speaker 1: that you had to work on and continue to work
Speaker 1: on as a wide receiver. I would say just getting
Speaker 1: my shoulders lower on the line and playing more of
Speaker 1: my hands. Uh, you know, since I can run and
Speaker 1: a lot of times I want to give a move
Speaker 1: and take off and say I gotta take more time
Speaker 1: at the line, get him off the spot. Kind of
Speaker 1: spending more time there and getting comfortable with doing that.
Speaker 1: How much is dt to marryous time is helping you out?
Speaker 1: Because he was in Houston with yeah, and now you
Speaker 1: come over to the Jets and there he is in
Speaker 1: that wide receiving room. Uh. He's a big help. He's
Speaker 1: the reason I came over to the Jets. You know,
Speaker 1: when they were um scouting my film, they asked him
Speaker 1: about He's like, yeah, bring him in. He's gonna be big.
Speaker 1: And like I said, he helped me out in Houston.
Speaker 1: I helped him a little bit, you know, with the players,
Speaker 1: and held him with everything else. Uh, you know, things
Speaker 1: like just being a professional on and off the field.
Speaker 1: He's helped at How would you describe the way he
Speaker 1: goes about his leadership style. But he's, like you mentioned,
Speaker 1: guy has been in the National Football League for a
Speaker 1: long time and awfully productive receiver. Yeah, he's one of
Speaker 1: the guys I like, I said, that takes again very seriously.
Speaker 1: You know. You know some guys, some older guys in
Speaker 1: the league. You know, they're kind of like chill, relaxed,
Speaker 1: you know, I've done my job. But he takes it
Speaker 1: very seriously. You know, he he's in the building a
Speaker 1: long time, takes share of his body. Like I said,
Speaker 1: he's a real professional. And that's what things I like
Speaker 1: to remember from him. And they always talk about the
Speaker 1: bonds and in different position groups. You know, offensive line
Speaker 1: is supposed to be have all this chemistry, defensive backs.
Speaker 1: What is it like in the wide receiver room and
Speaker 1: what and how much how important is it for you
Speaker 1: all to be on the same page and have that bond.
Speaker 1: All of us have a really different skill set for
Speaker 1: the most parting receiver room. I think all of us
Speaker 1: can like do our jobs and know what our job is,
Speaker 1: and I think we all respect that a lot. You know,
Speaker 1: we want to get the ball spread around more and
Speaker 1: we all want more touches, of course, but you know,
Speaker 1: we all respect each other in their jobs and we
Speaker 1: want to see each other be successful. How different is
Speaker 1: this offensive system then what you were playing in with
Speaker 1: the Texans for a couple of seasons and in terms
Speaker 1: of in terms of terminology, how difficult is that to
Speaker 1: pick it up on the run because you're coming here
Speaker 1: with your backpack on in September twenty three and they're
Speaker 1: saying come on. That said, Uh, there's some things that
Speaker 1: are exactly the same and a lot of it is different.
Speaker 1: So you know, some things work the same, like formation,
Speaker 1: their exact same names, some players are exact same names.
Speaker 1: All playbooks have that. But for the most part it
Speaker 1: is different. You know, how they run rouse is different. Um,
Speaker 1: how you think of things and do things is different.
Speaker 1: So visit. What is it gonna take for the Jets
Speaker 1: to turn things around, to start ending games with with
Speaker 1: victories and instead of disappointing losses. Is it gonna take?
Speaker 1: You know what? In your opinion? What do you what
Speaker 1: do you think it's gonna take. Just attention to detail,
Speaker 1: not being ourselves and critical moments. I think that's something
Speaker 1: we did in the past two weeks is beat ourselves
Speaker 1: in critical moments, but attention to detail. Uh, we practice
Speaker 1: very hard. I think we just need to get some
Speaker 1: more of these situations in our practice and kind of
Speaker 1: focused on on that. We talked about the skill set,
Speaker 1: we talked about the system before. Why do you think
Speaker 1: you're a good fit in terms of your skill set?
Speaker 1: And hopefully moving forward you continue to see yourself, Uh
Speaker 1: have an evolution in this offense. I think I'm a
Speaker 1: good fit just because I'm learning from God's like DT
Speaker 1: and even Robbie, you know Crowder, you know, learned to play.
Speaker 1: Just trying to pick up the playbook. Um, so we
Speaker 1: can move faster, Uh, at least while I'm on the field.
Speaker 1: They can move pritty and fast when they're on the field,
Speaker 1: but move faster when I'm on the field. The routes,
Speaker 1: you know, they're actually hard. You know, you just gotta
Speaker 1: get good repetition. So it's second nature. I think I
Speaker 1: can do that very well and take it to the
Speaker 1: next level. And how how hard is it coming in,
Speaker 1: you know, not having an off season with this team
Speaker 1: and then you know, being thrown into the lineup. Are
Speaker 1: you trying to find time with Sam to be like, yo,
Speaker 1: you know I'm still here, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Let me know. You know, we can have a bond too.
Speaker 1: I mean, like, what is that like, gaining that chemistry
Speaker 1: with your quarterback. I think it's more than just getting
Speaker 1: chemistry with him as gaming chemistry with him. Shivers coach,
Speaker 1: O c Head coach. You know, just because I didn't
Speaker 1: have that time and you know preseason and training camp,
Speaker 1: you know, to kind of build and show them everything
Speaker 1: I can do and that. Okay, I know there's like
Speaker 1: the back of my hand. I think that's the hardest part,
Speaker 1: you know, But weeks as weeks go, it'll be you
Speaker 1: just mentioned your wide receiver coach Shawn Jefferson. He really
Speaker 1: gets after you guys, a fiery, passionate soul. And then
Speaker 1: you also have one of the most productive receivers in
Speaker 1: the history in the National Football League in Hines Ward
Speaker 1: helping you out. How have those guys went about coaching
Speaker 1: you up? Uh? They love our room, to take care
Speaker 1: of our room. Uh. Like I said, they're both very
Speaker 1: keen un attention to detail. I mean, you can make
Speaker 1: a big play, but you know they'll let you know. Okay,
Speaker 1: you know, you gotta get another yard on this or
Speaker 1: you know, you gotta do this, and then sometimes like
Speaker 1: it's it's a great play is nothing. You know, this
Speaker 1: might be how it's supposed to be done, but you're
Speaker 1: just playing football, and that's what they love. I love
Speaker 1: to see us getting after there and and you know,
Speaker 1: just playing all hard. Did you know you're you're you're
Speaker 1: a young dude. Did you know about Hinze you watch
Speaker 1: him growing up a little bit? Definitely? Yeah. He he
Speaker 1: played with an edge, and that's the way Sean coaches
Speaker 1: as well. For a former I believe he's an undrafted
Speaker 1: free agent who made everything out of his opportunities in
Speaker 1: the National Football Leader and his sons doing very well
Speaker 1: at the University of Florida. Vana Jefferson he's gonna be
Speaker 1: playing on Sundays to pretty Does he talk to you
Speaker 1: guys about him at all? Yeah, of course he He
Speaker 1: loves the sign. You know, he'll be like, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: very week. I know he's coached up. I played with
Speaker 1: Sean Jefferson when I was in Detroit. He was a
Speaker 1: wide receivers coaching and he was very intense. He was
Speaker 1: hard on guys like Calvin Johnson, Nate Burrowson, and they
Speaker 1: were at the top of their games. And you know
Speaker 1: that's one thing about coach Jefferson. He's not gonna let
Speaker 1: you slack off. He's gonna ask for the best of you,
Speaker 1: you know, every single practice, and that's only gonna make
Speaker 1: you better player. Well, Vincent, we thank you so much
Speaker 1: for coming on and continued success to you. You're off
Speaker 1: to a good start with your new club. And uh listen, man,
Speaker 1: you can run like the wind, so keep on getting
Speaker 1: that ball in your hands making things happen. And you
Speaker 1: are listening to uh inside, did you have on ESPN
Speaker 1: New York roll tuch snap drops back, looks like the
Speaker 1: open Jamison Crowder prods got a kiss for a touchdown
Speaker 1: and there was a flag down in the offensive back,
Speaker 1: said Jets. We were broadcasting live from Vanderbilt Sports of
Speaker 1: Spirits and Sudden Windham Hamilton Park Hotel, Remember Jets fancy
Speaker 1: and stream Inside the Jets Live through the Jets app
Speaker 1: presented by M and T Bank. Go to the app
Speaker 1: store or a Google play Now and search Official New
Speaker 1: York Jets. Well, we started this show talking about opportunities
Speaker 1: for young players, and our last guest, Vincent Smith, is
Speaker 1: a prime example of that. He's an interesting I don't
Speaker 1: want to call him a project because this is second
Speaker 1: year in the National Football League, but he's got a
Speaker 1: lot of tools that you like. And let's see if
Speaker 1: the Jets can continue to mold him and also give
Speaker 1: him more opportunities because he's big, he can fly, he's smart,
Speaker 1: and I think he's got a good future. Yeah, he does.
Speaker 1: He has all the tools that you can ask for
Speaker 1: in a wide receiver, and he's passionate about the game.
Speaker 1: And they have two great coaches that are really going
Speaker 1: to help him develop and mold into you know, our
Speaker 1: promising receiver. You know, depending on the work that he
Speaker 1: puts in, there's some great things that can happen from him.
Speaker 1: You know, a guy who played from a small school.
Speaker 1: He's getting coached up behind his ward Sean Jefferson to
Speaker 1: the guys who have coached and played with some of
Speaker 1: the best and been some of the best to play
Speaker 1: the game. So if he can learn from them, learn
Speaker 1: those ins and outs, you know that he canna have
Speaker 1: a long career ahead of him. Yeah. Vincent Smith is
Speaker 1: a four three guy. He's six three over two pounds.
Speaker 1: Coach speed, no, you can't. And he also can go
Speaker 1: up and get it with that with that height. So
Speaker 1: he is a guy I'm excited to watch down the
Speaker 1: stretch because every time he makes a play, Adam Gaze,
Speaker 1: who is the Jets head coach but also the teams
Speaker 1: offensive signal caller, is going to be more app to
Speaker 1: get him in the football. Yeah. I mean, that's how
Speaker 1: you get more opportunities. You keep producing. You know, they
Speaker 1: throw the ball to you one time, you catch it, uh,
Speaker 1: and pretty soon you start doing that and they're saying, listen,
Speaker 1: this guy is consistent. We can trust this guy. He's
Speaker 1: where he's supposed to be. He makes the catches. Then
Speaker 1: you start getting more reps, and then you start to
Speaker 1: gain a role in the offense and you can become
Speaker 1: a star. Good chemistry. Eric Coleman between Sam Donald and
Speaker 1: Jamison Crowder. I believe Crowder's at forty three receptions, So
Speaker 1: if you average that out over the course the sixteen games,
Speaker 1: guy could have eighty six receptions. Yeah. I mean, he's
Speaker 1: he's on pace to have a great year. And you know,
Speaker 1: he's been an impact player since he arrived here in
Speaker 1: Floren Parking and the off season. You know, through training camp,
Speaker 1: he was a guy that everyone said, listen, you gotta
Speaker 1: keep your eye out on number eighty two. You know,
Speaker 1: he's a big time playmaker. And uh, it's been great
Speaker 1: to see Sam how that security blanket, that guy who
Speaker 1: can move the chains, keep drives going. He's been trustworthy,
Speaker 1: he's he's it's open, and he's a physical runner for
Speaker 1: a wide receivers. So I cut you off before that
Speaker 1: in the first segment is we had to go to
Speaker 1: the break and pay some bills here. But the two
Speaker 1: instances between Donald and offensive line and stood out to me.
Speaker 1: We're in the fourth quarter, there was a sack by
Speaker 1: a cornerback. Uh, they did a great job disguise. And
Speaker 1: you said, give Brian Flores credit, but it looked like
Speaker 1: the Jets that shifted protection to the left and then
Speaker 1: that cornerback came free to the right. So take me
Speaker 1: through the play. Whose responsibility is that without you being
Speaker 1: in the meeting room. Well, you know, as a defense,
Speaker 1: you're always waiting for for cues, and you watch film
Speaker 1: and you study. You know, for instance, when we play
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning, we knew that at the clock got under
Speaker 1: seven eight seconds, he wasn't able to audible. So you
Speaker 1: would hold one coverage and show it and try to
Speaker 1: be patient and diligent in that coverage, and once it
Speaker 1: hit eight seconds, you can roll into the coverage that
Speaker 1: you were gonna initially play because it was too late
Speaker 1: for him to change everything. And I think what what
Speaker 1: the Dolphins did on that They loaded the left side
Speaker 1: of the Jets offense. They loaded, They showed that they
Speaker 1: were going that way, so the offensive line slid that way.
Speaker 1: Leban went that way to add the extra protection, and
Speaker 1: then at the last second they bailed and a corner
Speaker 1: came from the right side after Lebian had scanned to
Speaker 1: the left. No one saw him. Sam Donald didn't even
Speaker 1: see him, and you have a big play. So, uh
Speaker 1: that that's great scheme by Miami. We once Leban goes over,
Speaker 1: should somebody be picking up that corner? Or is that
Speaker 1: responsibility on the quarterback? Well, I mean it's technically listen,
Speaker 1: it was it was the running backs guy. I would
Speaker 1: guess you know what I mean. But once he saw
Speaker 1: that defensive loaded, Uh, the defense loaded on his left side.
Speaker 1: They made that adjustment, didn't snap the ball. So yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, you would like to say, see Sam have
Speaker 1: awareness and know that he's there. But if his eyes
Speaker 1: are down the field. It's hard to see that that
Speaker 1: corner coming. Okay, so the next Jets possession right there
Speaker 1: in the shadow of their own end zone. Again, you
Speaker 1: don't want to be there. But that's a separate story.
Speaker 1: You're in shotgun. The crowd, even though it was a
Speaker 1: sparse place. I was there in South Florida on Sunday,
Speaker 1: it got loud. It's as soon as the Dolphins took control.
Speaker 1: They stayed in it that whole game. But this can't
Speaker 1: happen either. Jonathan Harrison is snapping the Donald and shotgun
Speaker 1: Brian Winters is a right guard. He gives him a
Speaker 1: tap and the darrier to tell him when Donald is
Speaker 1: ready for the football, gives him the tap, snaps the ball.
Speaker 1: Donald didn't know what was coming, and you got a safety,
Speaker 1: you know. And in that instance, the quarterback is trying
Speaker 1: to figure out he's trying to find the snitch in
Speaker 1: the defense. So what he's gonna do. He's gonna make
Speaker 1: everything look the same. Callus Caden's do that leg kick
Speaker 1: and make it look like he's about to snap the ball.
Speaker 1: And now all of a sudden, what you see is
Speaker 1: you start to see that safety drop and the other
Speaker 1: one go to the middle of the field, and now
Speaker 1: he's like, okay, now they're in cover one. We can
Speaker 1: audible to this defense. And I think on that play,
Speaker 1: Sam was counting for it to be on two. He
Speaker 1: wanted to give that fake, that fake leg kick. Scan
Speaker 1: the defense to understand what, you know, what play he
Speaker 1: wants to put him in. Do it again, let them
Speaker 1: get set, and then you know, having to be on two.
Speaker 1: But Brian Winters, I don't know that. I don't know
Speaker 1: the snap coout. I don't know who's fault it was.
Speaker 1: But Brian Wincher saw that leg kick. He signaled to
Speaker 1: Harrison to snap the ball. Donald's looking at the secondary
Speaker 1: to see which way they roll in. The ball snapped
Speaker 1: and and you have a disaster. So you know, that's
Speaker 1: one of those things where in week eight, week nine,
Speaker 1: you can't have those mistakes, just like the busted coverage
Speaker 1: on defense, you can't beat yourself. You can't have those
Speaker 1: those mental mistakes. Everyone has to be on the same page.
Speaker 1: You know, that stuff that you get rid of and
Speaker 1: O T A S and training camp, those are those
Speaker 1: things that you iron now back then, not during week
Speaker 1: eight week nine. Well it's been quite a season, a
Speaker 1: lot of adversity, and as of right now, while we're
Speaker 1: taping at Vanderbilt Sports and Spirits, Levian Bell was scheduled
Speaker 1: to getting an m r I today on his knee.
Speaker 1: Bell touches in all for a hundred twenty one yards
Speaker 1: against the Dolphins. Is if he was schedule to miss
Speaker 1: any amount of time, how big of a loss would
Speaker 1: that be for them? It would be a huge loss,
Speaker 1: you know, Levan. Listen, he hasn't had the number production,
Speaker 1: he hasn't been running for a hundred yards plus, but
Speaker 1: he's that He's that one player that you look at
Speaker 1: every time he gets the ball, he's fighting and he's
Speaker 1: scrapping for any extra yardage that he can get, and
Speaker 1: he's been a great motivator for for the rest of
Speaker 1: the team. You know, he's the best player on the
Speaker 1: field and he's out here busting his butt through thick
Speaker 1: and thin. Has a positive attitude about things. The exact
Speaker 1: guy you want in your locker room right now. You know,
Speaker 1: when when the adversity strikes, when things aren't going your way,
Speaker 1: you look at a guy like Levy on to see
Speaker 1: how he reacts and if he's positive, he's still working hard.
Speaker 1: He's still putting in that extra work. Everyone else is
Speaker 1: gonna follow suit. But to have a guy like that
Speaker 1: possibly be injured, it's gonna be it's gonna be tough
Speaker 1: on the team, you know, to miss that leadership, to
Speaker 1: miss that hard work and that just that that overall
Speaker 1: confidence that he brings to the team. Yeah, that would
Speaker 1: be a big time blow. You do have capable guys
Speaker 1: in the back too, that might be more Blapal time,
Speaker 1: Montgomery time. I'm I don't want to get ahead of
Speaker 1: myself here, but you know, if you are a Jets fan,
Speaker 1: you're kind of like, what's happening next. It's been kind
Speaker 1: of our Murphy's Law season for their team. It has been,
Speaker 1: you know, and it's unfortunate. You know, the best players
Speaker 1: in the team, a lot of them are are injured.
Speaker 1: You know, they've been battling injuries and haven't been up
Speaker 1: to full speed. And it's not an excuse, it's just
Speaker 1: a fact, you know. And it happens to a lot
Speaker 1: of teams where you guys are getting big minutes, they're
Speaker 1: they're playing a lot of playing a lot of reps,
Speaker 1: and injuries are inevitable in football. Everybody at the end
Speaker 1: of the year, a percent of the guys out there
Speaker 1: are hurt. They're playing through some type of pain. So
Speaker 1: it's just it's unfortunate that these injuries have happened to
Speaker 1: the team. They've really decimated the team and kind of,
Speaker 1: uh put a stop on everything that you you work
Speaker 1: for in the off season, the preseason, what you game
Speaker 1: planning for to have these guys out on the field contributing.
Speaker 1: All Right, we're gonna take a break, but then when
Speaker 1: we come back and talk about the Crosstown Battle. Jets
Speaker 1: Science at MetLife Stadium Sunday, Sam Donald and Daniel Jones
Speaker 1: for the Giant Giants, of course, playing tonight against the
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. You are listening to Inside the Jets on
Speaker 1: ESPN Radio with Ryan Fitzpatrick at quarterback. In the shotguns
Speaker 1: got back to his left and Martin Walton and a
Speaker 1: slot left play actions. Fitzpatrick gon durs pressure and he
Speaker 1: goes down. He had no chance. Quinn and Williams comes
Speaker 1: untouched off the right side and he gets his first
Speaker 1: full solo sack. Has Jets Rewards members don't forget to

Speaker 1: Eric Ellen and Eric Coleman here inside Vanderbilt Sports and

Speaker 1: join us, get a bite to eat, have a beverage.
Speaker 1: We'll be here next week after the Jets and Giants
Speaker 1: at MetLife. What do you think about the quarterback match up,
Speaker 1: the most important position in the National Football A Sam
Speaker 1: Donald in his second season, the former third pick in
Speaker 1: the draft, and of course the Giants come back this
Speaker 1: year after taking Sa Kwan Barkley one spot. I had
Speaker 1: a Donald two thousand and eighteen, and last April they
Speaker 1: take Daniel Jones out of Duke and a lot of
Speaker 1: people raised their eyebrows after they took him with the
Speaker 1: number six pick. But he's at his moments, his rookie year.
Speaker 1: He has, you know, and I like what Daniel Jones
Speaker 1: has been doing. Of course, he's gonna have some inconsistencies
Speaker 1: because he's young. We've seen that with Sam Donald. But
Speaker 1: you know, really a glimpse of the future uh the
Speaker 1: NFL and a glimpse of New York football I think
Speaker 1: both players have a lot to you know, a lot,
Speaker 1: a lot of to grow. It's a lot to learn,
Speaker 1: and I think that they'll have fantastic careers and it's
Speaker 1: gonna be something special to see them compete against each other.
Speaker 1: It's funny because the organizations are always gonna be linked,
Speaker 1: but especially with their futures now because that two thousand
Speaker 1: and eighteen draft, if the Giants don't go Barkley, that
Speaker 1: maybe Donald's not there at three and the Jets take them,
Speaker 1: of course, and the Giants got criticized big time for that,
Speaker 1: but at the same time, they draft an unbelievable talent
Speaker 1: in Sae Kwon Barkley, who became the third running back
Speaker 1: in NFL history, third rookie running back in NFL history
Speaker 1: to reach two thousand yards from scrimmage his first season. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what, It's just a part of the process,
Speaker 1: and I commend the Giants for from making that making
Speaker 1: that draft pick with sa Kwon Barkley, when everyone said,
Speaker 1: you don't draft the running back in the first round,
Speaker 1: you don't draft him a number two. I mean, he's
Speaker 1: a fantastic player and he's got a bright future ahead
Speaker 1: of him, but he's one of those those foundations for
Speaker 1: this Giants team moving board, and I think the Jets
Speaker 1: are trying to do the same thing with with Quinnin
Speaker 1: Williams and Sam Donald, grow that foundation, have have those players,
Speaker 1: those pillars that are always gonna be here and make
Speaker 1: it make an impact for your team. So it's exciting that,
Speaker 1: you know, to see these teams, you know, not follow trends,
Speaker 1: not follow all the draft gurus and whatever they say,
Speaker 1: and bring in players that are gonna bring value to
Speaker 1: the Yeah. So we talked, and we started this show
Speaker 1: talking about the Jets failure and drafting, and that's part
Speaker 1: of the reason they're sitting here at one and seven
Speaker 1: and also have depth problems. They have to draft better.
Speaker 1: We know that. That's why Joe Douglas is in that
Speaker 1: seat as the general manager. How many draft picks has
Speaker 1: he made is GM and the New York Jets zero zero.
Speaker 1: So we have to give this man a chance to
Speaker 1: put his stamp on this roster. Another storyline that will
Speaker 1: be following this week, of course, is the Big Cat
Speaker 1: is over across town with the Giants and August made
Speaker 1: the move. Hoby judged on that in the future. I
Speaker 1: think it was a wise decision, because we talked about
Speaker 1: it last week. If the Jets don't trade Leonard Williams
Speaker 1: and don't get a pair of draft picks back at
Speaker 1: this time, then he probably goes in free agency. You're
Speaker 1: getting compensatory picked on the line, but you don't get
Speaker 1: to draft picks. Yeah, you know, it was a decision
Speaker 1: that had to be made, whether you agree with it
Speaker 1: or not. You know, the Jets, if they're not gonna
Speaker 1: keep Leonard Williams for the future, they have to get
Speaker 1: something in return, something that they can they can help
Speaker 1: them moving forward. And I think for Leonard Williams, I
Speaker 1: think it's a good thing. You know, it's a right
Speaker 1: across the street, you know, the same stadium, but it's
Speaker 1: a new environment. I think something new maybe may have
Speaker 1: been needed for Leonard Williams. And it's gonna be exciting
Speaker 1: to see them play against each other. Uh. You know,
Speaker 1: of course he's gonna be fired up to be playing
Speaker 1: against his old team. You know, there's nothing like playing
Speaker 1: against your your old team. I remember my first time
Speaker 1: coming down to MetLife and playing against the Jets when
Speaker 1: I was in Atlanta. I was fired up. You couldn't
Speaker 1: tell me anything you know, it was like it meant
Speaker 1: the world to me, you know, to to prove to
Speaker 1: my old team that that I should have been here still,
Speaker 1: I could have been helping your team. So he's gonna
Speaker 1: be motivated, but it's gonna be up to the Jets
Speaker 1: to whether that storm and encounter his energy. But another
Speaker 1: reason why that trade had to happen is you drafted
Speaker 1: Quinn and Williams. You need this guy to be on
Speaker 1: the field, and I know he's part of the rotation
Speaker 1: and Greg Williams is doing a tremendous job with that
Speaker 1: defensive line. We can talk, we can talk for a
Speaker 1: long time about all the contributions are getting from the
Speaker 1: young kids up front, but predominantly earlier in the season
Speaker 1: he was working in that rotation. Now he's gonna be
Speaker 1: a fixture because he had the three guys in the
Speaker 1: middle where you were looking at Steve McClendon, Leonard Williams,
Speaker 1: Quinn and Williams. Now you're looking at McClendon, Quinnon, Williams
Speaker 1: and occasionally he's coming out for a breather. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: that's gonna be exciting to see quinnin featured. You know,
Speaker 1: in the middle of that defense with uh, you know,
Speaker 1: with all the talent that the Jets defensive line has.
Speaker 1: You know, he showed some signs of you know, making
Speaker 1: big plays. He had a sack last week. Uh. You know,
Speaker 1: he's very active on that defensive line. And given that
Speaker 1: opportunity to take the lead role and to be that
Speaker 1: three technique is going to be exciting because he's he's
Speaker 1: one of those players that he's young. He's very young,
Speaker 1: but he's he's learning and he's growing and he's getting better.
Speaker 1: And I think it's important for everybody you know, watching
Speaker 1: you listen. He may not be a guy who goes
Speaker 1: out there and get you ten sacks. He may not
Speaker 1: be Aaron Donald from from year one. Everybody grows differently
Speaker 1: and he's as a young player that's going to develop
Speaker 1: into something special. And the Jets linebackers will have a
Speaker 1: phenomenal challenge on their hands in se Kwon Berkeley, because
Speaker 1: we talked about Berkeley. Before you can run the football,
Speaker 1: you also can catch it out of the back field,
Speaker 1: no doubt about that. And the Jets continue to get
Speaker 1: tested at the inside linebacker position. C J. Molesley We're
Speaker 1: mentioned him, but out with the growing he's not gonna
Speaker 1: play this week. Blake Cashman, the rookie who was impressive
Speaker 1: in a small sampling here early in his career. He's
Speaker 1: on and to reserve Albert mclallen on injured reserve, um
Speaker 1: nevill Hewitt trying to work back in the lineup. So
Speaker 1: against let's not forget Avery Williams. Yeah. Yeah, So so
Speaker 1: you're talking about James Burgess and um who am I
Speaker 1: forgetting here? Burgess and Brandon Copeland where you're inside linebackers.
Speaker 1: That Cope is a guy who's been playing outside linebacker
Speaker 1: for it. Yeah, I mean, you know against Miami. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it's easy to say, like, oh, he's a linebacker,
Speaker 1: he could just put go in there, But listen, it's
Speaker 1: it's similar to losing your quarterback. You know, he's a
Speaker 1: quarterback of your defense. That inside linebacker. He runs the show,
Speaker 1: He gets the defensive line of Justin, he makes all
Speaker 1: the audibles. To not have that player, to not have
Speaker 1: consistency at that position, is gonna hurt your defense, and
Speaker 1: it has hurt the Jets defense in their run defense
Speaker 1: and their past defense. You need that that that steadfast,
Speaker 1: that that player in the middle of your defense. That's
Speaker 1: gonna set the tone. Yeah, it's been amazing the number
Speaker 1: of injuries at that position inside linebacker and a big
Speaker 1: challenge on their hands and Barkley. Uh. One thing you'd
Speaker 1: like to see the Jets get back to here this
Speaker 1: week is taking the football away. Um we haven't seen
Speaker 1: that of late, but the rooky quarterback Dana Jones winn
Speaker 1: he gets himself in trouble, he will turn the football over. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, and that's gonna be you know, the defensive
Speaker 1: back challenging receivers, applying pressure up front. You know, it's
Speaker 1: a it's a team unit, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Everyone has to work together to force turnovers. It's gonna
Speaker 1: take someone hitting Daniel Jones as he throws the football
Speaker 1: or maybe getting a couple of shots on him and
Speaker 1: forcing him to rush the pass. And Jamal Adams and
Speaker 1: company are gonna have to start jumping routes and taking
Speaker 1: some chances within the scheme of the defense. I don't
Speaker 1: want you leaving guys wide open, but it's time to
Speaker 1: start taking some chances and getting the ball back to
Speaker 1: your offense, giving them opportunities to create some scores. And
Speaker 1: get up and listen. In about thirty seconds or less.
Speaker 1: Jets are one and seven. But these guys are playing
Speaker 1: their professionals, they're playing for their jobs, are playing for
Speaker 1: next season, to trying to get on a streak. And
Speaker 1: does it matter that crosstown rivalry. I mean, you look
Speaker 1: at the you know, the Jets playing in New York.
Speaker 1: Whether you're for the Jets or the Giants, the media
Speaker 1: has a lot to do with, you know, the perception
Speaker 1: of your team. And if you win that crosstown rivalry,
Speaker 1: you play some good football and you know, while everyone
Speaker 1: in New York is watching, it definitely means something. We'll
Speaker 1: be back right here next week for Inside the Jets.
