Now here's Eric Gallen. Welcome to the Inside 0:00:25.160 --> 0:00:29.720 the Jets. Eric Allen here alongside my new partner for 0:00:29.760 --> 0:00:33.559 the two thousand eighteen season, former Jets safety Eric Coleman. 0:00:33.720 --> 0:00:35.680 Thank you, Thank you man. I'm excited to do the 0:00:35.720 --> 0:00:37.800 season with you. They got off to a great start 0:00:37.880 --> 0:00:41.480 yesterday and there's a lot to be be inspired for 0:00:41.840 --> 0:00:44.400 if you're a jetman. How about the New York Jets 0:00:44.479 --> 0:00:50.560 almost laying a fifty burger in the Motor City victory 0:00:50.640 --> 0:00:54.000 over the Detroit Lines. What did you think about that performance? 0:00:54.160 --> 0:00:55.800 I was, I was so excited. You know, they were 0:00:55.800 --> 0:00:58.200 clicking on all cylinders, all three phases of the game 0:00:58.640 --> 0:01:01.000 that they were They were tough, they were ready to play, 0:01:01.200 --> 0:01:03.680 and and it was just a great showing of the 0:01:03.720 --> 0:01:06.920 talent of the coaching that Todd Bowles did this whole offseason. 0:01:07.200 --> 0:01:09.360 And I thought they did a great performance. Alright, So, 0:01:09.720 --> 0:01:13.760 Eric Coleman, you were at a cooking class last night 0:01:13.920 --> 0:01:17.399 actually with the Jets had the Jets cooking school. It 0:01:17.440 --> 0:01:19.520 was it was in Morristown. It was awesome. We had 0:01:19.560 --> 0:01:22.639 we we were cooking, uh, all kinds of meals, Detroit food. 0:01:22.959 --> 0:01:24.640 And I got to watch the game with with some 0:01:24.680 --> 0:01:26.720 of the fans and it was a great time. But 0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:30.240 you actually missed the first play. So Sam Donald takes 0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:34.080 his first play from scrimmage in the National Football League. 0:01:34.319 --> 0:01:36.920 He goes out to pass, He rolls to his right, 0:01:37.080 --> 0:01:40.080 he throws to his left. He sees bilal Paul and 0:01:40.120 --> 0:01:43.920 the one guy I didn't see was Quare Unbelievable. You know, 0:01:44.000 --> 0:01:46.240 I mean, what a way to start your career. You know, 0:01:46.280 --> 0:01:49.040 you're the third pick of the draft, you're the franchise quarterback. 0:01:49.080 --> 0:01:51.800 You come out and throw an interception for a touchdown. 0:01:52.000 --> 0:01:53.480 But you know what, I was so proud of him. 0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:56.240 He showed his resilience, he showed his toughness, and he's 0:01:56.400 --> 0:01:59.280 that going through that adversity I think was something great 0:01:59.280 --> 0:02:01.280 for for Sam Arnold. You know, you go through those 0:02:01.280 --> 0:02:03.360 tough times, you bounce back. You know, you lead the 0:02:03.400 --> 0:02:05.880 team to you know, all kinds of points, you put 0:02:05.880 --> 0:02:08.600 all kinds of points on the board. Um, just it's 0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:10.480 not the best start. That is not there's not something 0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:12.440 that you would draw up. But it's a great start 0:02:12.440 --> 0:02:15.240 for Sam Donald. He What was the fans reaction though 0:02:15.320 --> 0:02:20.800 in Morristown when Darnald goes back and the lines are 0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:24.040 running the other way, four fields going nuts. Everybody was shocked. 0:02:24.040 --> 0:02:25.840 You know, everybody was like, oh no, this is this 0:02:25.840 --> 0:02:27.720 is supposed to be the guy that, you know, to say, 0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:29.680 brings us back to the super Bowl, but you know, 0:02:29.960 --> 0:02:31.600 sometimes it doesn't work out that way. And it was 0:02:31.600 --> 0:02:34.160 a lesson that he learned from. You saw Josh McCown. 0:02:34.560 --> 0:02:36.440 He was the first guy to grab him on the sideline, 0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:38.200 you know, got into his head, told me to keep 0:02:38.240 --> 0:02:40.320 his head up, came back and was ready to go. 0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:44.720 What does it say about this guy's character, his metal, 0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:48.600 his poise, his makeup, the way he came back because 0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:50.560 he finished in the night sixteen it's twenty one for 0:02:50.560 --> 0:02:54.560 a yards and his first two professional touchdowns. I think 0:02:54.600 --> 0:02:57.480 he just confirmed everything that I thought going into this season. 0:02:57.680 --> 0:03:00.160 You know, he the bright lights aren't gonna beat too 0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:02.520 big for him. He can handle adversity. He's a great 0:03:02.600 --> 0:03:05.040 leader and he has that level head, you know, playing 0:03:05.120 --> 0:03:07.440 quarterback in New York. Is is something different. You know, 0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:09.520 there's a lot of expectations that come of you, and 0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:11.280 there's gonna be a lot of ebbs and flows in 0:03:11.280 --> 0:03:14.600 your career. And Sam Donald handled that perfectly. He brushed 0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:16.839 it right off, went on to the next play and 0:03:16.880 --> 0:03:19.639 continue his success. You played the safety position in the 0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:22.679 National Football League. What kind of challenges does a guy 0:03:22.760 --> 0:03:25.680 like Donald present? Because he's an accurate thrower of the 0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:29.720 football inside the pocket. But I think he is special 0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:33.120 feat and potentially we could be talking about him as 0:03:33.240 --> 0:03:36.360 one of the game's elite players. Well, you know, playing 0:03:36.360 --> 0:03:38.720 in the secondary, you know, obviously it's tough to cover 0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:41.120 that initial route, you know, but Sam Donald has the 0:03:41.200 --> 0:03:43.200 arm strength to to make any throw in the field. 0:03:43.560 --> 0:03:46.200 But the way he's unique is when he gets on 0:03:46.240 --> 0:03:48.960 the run. You know a lot of quarterbacks, especially young quarterbacks, 0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:50.640 when they get on the run, their eyes are down 0:03:50.680 --> 0:03:52.680 the field. They're trying to make it happen. They're worried 0:03:52.720 --> 0:03:55.040 about the pressure that's coming on him. Sam Donald does 0:03:55.080 --> 0:03:57.680 a great job of keeping his eyes downfield. He's extremely 0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:00.640 accurate throwing the ball on the run, and that's very dangerous, 0:04:00.680 --> 0:04:02.840 you know. I think of Aaron Rodgers. He's another guy 0:04:02.880 --> 0:04:05.320 who's accurate on the run, who's justice dangerous in the 0:04:05.320 --> 0:04:08.120 pocket as he is outside of the pocket. Eric Allen 0:04:08.360 --> 0:04:12.080 and Eric Coleman here at Vanderbilt's and Flora Park inside 0:04:12.120 --> 0:04:15.480 the Jets is brought uh to you live inside the 0:04:15.520 --> 0:04:19.200 Windham Hamilton's Park Hotel and we're supported by selective insurance. 0:04:19.279 --> 0:04:23.360 Response is everything? How about the judge response that initial 0:04:23.480 --> 0:04:27.440 touchdown because they weathered that storm and they responded with 0:04:27.480 --> 0:04:31.440 a seventeen point run of their own. Uh that culminated 0:04:31.640 --> 0:04:35.000 on a touchdown pass from Donald to Robby Anderson. I 0:04:35.040 --> 0:04:37.720 thought it was awesome, you know, just showing the resilience. UH. 0:04:37.760 --> 0:04:40.200 This team is is a hard nosed football team who 0:04:40.200 --> 0:04:43.000 can handle adversity, who can come through all the tough 0:04:43.040 --> 0:04:45.680 situations and still thrive. You know, they had a couple 0:04:45.720 --> 0:04:47.839 of tough challenges during this game. You know though it 0:04:47.920 --> 0:04:49.560 was a blowout. At the end of the game, you know, 0:04:49.600 --> 0:04:51.520 you have the first play for a pick six, you know, 0:04:51.600 --> 0:04:55.200 coming out going into the halftime, Lions hit a field goal. 0:04:55.200 --> 0:04:57.560 They come back and score another touchdown. You know, they 0:04:57.960 --> 0:05:00.760 continue to fight through adversity and shows a lot about 0:05:00.760 --> 0:05:03.560 their character. About the leadership of this team. Complimentary football. 0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:05.880 Everybody was worried about the Jet special teams after that 0:05:06.120 --> 0:05:09.320 third preseason out against the New York Giants, But the 0:05:09.400 --> 0:05:14.000 Jets special teams were special against the Detroit Lions, namely, 0:05:14.240 --> 0:05:17.480 how about Andre Roberts. Oh, Andre Roberts, he showed out yesterday. 0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:20.599 And the great thing. The funny thing is is that 0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:23.159 ever since Mike Westoff left the Jet staff, everybody has 0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:25.000 been like, oh, I don't know, the special teams aren't 0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:28.160 the same. I'll tell you what. Yesterday, all three phases 0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:31.560 they played well. Um. Andre Roberts had three great returns. 0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:33.400 He had a sixteen yard or he had to touchdown, 0:05:33.560 --> 0:05:36.360 and he had another long return. I thought they looked great. 0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:38.760 The the guys who were blocking form did a great 0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:41.440 job of holding up at the line. Uh, kicking game 0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:44.720 was great. Nine touchbacks. I have nothing to complain about 0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:46.960 about those special teams. He don't get mad at maybecause 0:05:46.960 --> 0:05:48.919 we're gonna get to the defense here in a second. 0:05:49.560 --> 0:05:55.200 Obviously they deserve plenty of props. But the balance offensively, 0:05:55.520 --> 0:05:59.039 what do you think about the tandem? Isaiah crow All 0:05:59.320 --> 0:06:02.440 now added to the mix. I love it, I love it. 0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:04.080 You know, you know what you get with balah Pal. 0:06:04.360 --> 0:06:06.640 He's a guy that once he gets a handoff, he 0:06:06.640 --> 0:06:08.240 has an opportunity to hit his head on the goal 0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:10.640 post whenever he touches the ball. So he's a big 0:06:10.680 --> 0:06:13.200 play guy, does a great job on third down, Awesome 0:06:13.200 --> 0:06:16.600 in past protection. But to add Isaiah Crowell, who's tough, 0:06:16.680 --> 0:06:19.280 He's physical. He's similar to like a Chris Ivvery where 0:06:19.279 --> 0:06:21.960 he loves that contact and he thrives off it. Did 0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:25.640 a great job yesterday showing his physicality and really punishing 0:06:25.880 --> 0:06:29.640 the Lions defenders. The balance offensively was very impressive. I 0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:32.440 like the way Jeremy Bates called the game. What about 0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:34.640 on the outside Quincy and him up back in the 0:06:34.680 --> 0:06:38.680 lineup for the Jets six reception sixty three yards and 0:06:38.880 --> 0:06:41.280 when the game got tight in the second half, like 0:06:41.320 --> 0:06:43.880 you mentioned, who did the rookie go to? He went 0:06:43.960 --> 0:06:47.080 the number eighty one. I call him the energizer Bunny 0:06:47.120 --> 0:06:49.320 for this offense when Quincy and no one was on 0:06:49.360 --> 0:06:52.120 the field. The Jets are a different team that he is. 0:06:52.520 --> 0:06:55.039 He's a special player and he's one of those guys 0:06:55.040 --> 0:06:57.320 who's a tone setter. You know, he is a wide receiver, 0:06:57.400 --> 0:06:58.960 so you don't think of those guys as the one 0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:01.559 who are gonna set the tone. But when Clinty catches 0:07:01.560 --> 0:07:04.039 the ball, going across the middle, taking those shots, giving 0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:06.920 shots across the middle, leading, leading on blocks, he does 0:07:06.920 --> 0:07:09.080 a great job of blocking. You know, he really just 0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:11.160 embodies what it is to be a jet. He's tough, 0:07:11.200 --> 0:07:14.400 he's physical, hard working, and he's dependable. So it was 0:07:14.400 --> 0:07:16.840 great to see him, especially after that injury, to come 0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:19.480 back and have such a big impact. What about the 0:07:19.600 --> 0:07:22.320 versatility when you're talking about a noon wall about line 0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:25.960 of him outside the numbers, they're moving them inside. You 0:07:26.080 --> 0:07:30.080 had to fund guys in the National Football League, but 0:07:30.200 --> 0:07:32.080 there aren't a lot of folks out there on the 0:07:32.120 --> 0:07:35.120 offensive side of the ball who present that kind of 0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:38.080 matchup problems like in Yeah, No one is so tough 0:07:38.120 --> 0:07:40.640 because you know, when he's playing the slot, he can 0:07:40.680 --> 0:07:42.480 be kind of like a tight end because he's tough 0:07:42.600 --> 0:07:45.200 enough to go down there and chip those outside linebackers. 0:07:45.320 --> 0:07:47.040 He's physical enough in the run game where he can 0:07:47.040 --> 0:07:49.360 go knock down the safety, but he can go across 0:07:49.360 --> 0:07:51.760 the middle. He can catch balls out in the perimeter. 0:07:52.080 --> 0:07:54.560 Once he catches the ball, he's just as dangerous. You know, 0:07:54.600 --> 0:07:56.960 he's tough, he's physical, he's built like a running back. 0:07:57.080 --> 0:07:58.400 You know, he kind of reminds me of an air 0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:00.920 Kwon Bolden earlier in his career here where he's he's 0:08:00.920 --> 0:08:02.840 one of those tough, physical guys who can move the 0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:05.080 change for you and make those tough catchers. How about 0:08:05.120 --> 0:08:08.200 Robbie Anderson. You know, you never can sleep on number 0:08:08.240 --> 0:08:11.400 eleven because you go in the entire half and say, hey, 0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:14.840 where's Robbie, and then all of a sudden, there he is. 0:08:14.880 --> 0:08:18.960 Ona Go Donald hits him and just like that, boom, 0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:21.440 He's into that zone. I thought that was awesome, you know, 0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:24.160 to get Robbie Anderson involved. You know, they kind of 0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:26.840 improvised on the route. Robbie Anderson put his hand up 0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:29.400 like Randy Moss. He is to letting, letting Donald know 0:08:29.440 --> 0:08:31.520 I'm gonna change the round. I'm going deep. He threw 0:08:31.560 --> 0:08:33.040 it deep and he went up and made the play. 0:08:33.440 --> 0:08:35.199 It was great to see him. You know, he's such 0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:36.959 a he was such a big part of this offense 0:08:37.040 --> 0:08:39.360 last season, and to see him contribute early in the 0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:42.320 season is great. I can't wait to see when Jermaine 0:08:42.400 --> 0:08:44.880 Curse gets back to this wide receiver Corps, no doubt 0:08:44.880 --> 0:08:47.480 about that. Did they improvised? There? I'm watching from the 0:08:47.520 --> 0:08:52.000 press box up top in Detroit, and I'm wondering. I'm 0:08:52.080 --> 0:08:55.720 shouting internally saying Donald's got him, He's He's got him. 0:08:55.720 --> 0:08:58.079 And like you said, Robbie's waving to him. So take 0:08:58.080 --> 0:08:59.600 me through that place, okay, So I'll take you through 0:08:59.600 --> 0:09:02.000 the play eight. What what happened? It was a third 0:09:02.040 --> 0:09:05.600 and two situations. Sterling was lined up. Oh, by the way, 0:09:05.679 --> 0:09:08.760 the Jets were great on third do in the first 0:09:08.800 --> 0:09:11.560 halfred at the rookie quarterback in Jeremy Bates again for 0:09:12.400 --> 0:09:14.400 they did a great job. But it was third and two. 0:09:14.559 --> 0:09:16.760 Sterling was lined up in the slot. Robbie Anderson was 0:09:16.760 --> 0:09:19.640 on the outside. What what happened was Sterling came up 0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:23.120 around a six yard curl. Robby Anderson did the inside release. 0:09:23.400 --> 0:09:26.199 Every time a defensive back, especially as safety sees that 0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:29.199 they're thinking snagger out, meaning Robby Anderson is gonna run 0:09:29.200 --> 0:09:31.320 the dig. And if you watch on the film, the 0:09:31.440 --> 0:09:34.720 Lion's safety jumped the dig so hard that Robby Anderson 0:09:34.760 --> 0:09:36.360 didn't even run it. He just put his hand up 0:09:36.440 --> 0:09:39.040 and kept running. That's why Sam kind of hesitated and 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:43.200 before throwing that ball deep. Great improvisation by Robbie Anderson 0:09:43.240 --> 0:09:45.280 and Sam Donald. Is great to see them doing that 0:09:45.360 --> 0:09:47.480 so early in his career. All right, if we all 0:09:47.600 --> 0:09:51.560 get to the defensive side of the ball, though, five interceptions, 0:09:51.600 --> 0:09:57.120 Matt stafford thrill for nearly forty yards. In two thousand seventeen. 0:09:57.200 --> 0:10:00.679 He had twenty nine touchdowns and ten inter receptions over 0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:04.320 the course is sixteen games. He was intercepted four times. 0:10:04.559 --> 0:10:07.959 Last night, the Jets had five interceptions in all New 0:10:08.040 --> 0:10:10.440 jack City. You know, they made their presence known on 0:10:10.520 --> 0:10:12.400 this league. You know, this is the defense that that 0:10:12.480 --> 0:10:14.760 wants to be, uh, the top defense in the league. 0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:17.040 They have the attitude, They put in the work, and 0:10:17.080 --> 0:10:19.000 they put in the film study. You know, you can 0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:22.079 see these guys jumping routes. Every time they ran a route, 0:10:22.120 --> 0:10:24.880 whether it was intercepted or not, there was pressure on 0:10:24.960 --> 0:10:27.320 those receivers every time. There was never a time where 0:10:27.320 --> 0:10:29.360 they caught the ball and they had room to run. 0:10:29.400 --> 0:10:31.520 It was always bang bang, and if not, it was 0:10:31.559 --> 0:10:35.120 an interception. I talked to former Jets quarterback Chad Pennington 0:10:35.640 --> 0:10:38.800 uh today about a number of things, including Sam Donald 0:10:38.840 --> 0:10:43.120 of course, but he said. Defensively, what you saw from 0:10:43.200 --> 0:10:46.840 the Jets was really sticky in coverage and it's a 0:10:46.880 --> 0:10:50.520 fast unit. Do you see that yourself? You know this 0:10:50.520 --> 0:10:53.560 is this defense is so athletic. They're tough, they're physical, 0:10:53.800 --> 0:10:56.520 they're they're constantly applying pressure. I mean you think about 0:10:56.559 --> 0:10:59.440 on the outside on the perimeter with Tremaine Johnson and Maclaymore, 0:10:59.800 --> 0:11:02.120 but screen on the inside on the slot. These guys 0:11:02.120 --> 0:11:04.560 are tough, physical corners who like to get their hands 0:11:04.559 --> 0:11:07.559 and receivers disrupt the routes. And they know that they 0:11:07.600 --> 0:11:11.200 have protection because Jamal Adams and Doug Middleton last week 0:11:11.200 --> 0:11:13.319 all yesterday was back there holding it down in the 0:11:13.320 --> 0:11:15.000 middle of the field. So they have a lot of 0:11:15.040 --> 0:11:18.120 trust for one another. Great communication across the board. That's 0:11:18.160 --> 0:11:19.480 one thing I look at when I look at the 0:11:19.520 --> 0:11:22.400 secondary is are they communicating? Are they doing hand signals? 0:11:22.600 --> 0:11:25.520 And the Jets were talking about every single play out 0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:28.440 there on the field. Great ball skills. How about Morris Clayborn. 0:11:28.520 --> 0:11:31.640 He had one interception last year, but I thought last 0:11:31.640 --> 0:11:33.840 season with the Jets was his finest in the National 0:11:33.840 --> 0:11:36.280 Football League. That was a helvin in or such. Oh, 0:11:36.280 --> 0:11:38.280 that was a great job, you know, it looked, you know, 0:11:38.320 --> 0:11:40.040 from from the film, it looked like they were playing 0:11:40.040 --> 0:11:43.280 a trap cover to cover two. More Claiborne kind of 0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:45.640 he kind of sunk off the number one receiver. Matt 0:11:45.679 --> 0:11:47.920 Stafford thought he can fit into the honey hoole and 0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:51.760 cover two the safeties high, the corners underneath. Matt Stafford 0:11:51.800 --> 0:11:53.600 has the arm to get it into that little space 0:11:53.640 --> 0:11:56.600 between the corner and the safety. More Claiborne showed his 0:11:56.679 --> 0:11:58.959 athleticism going up and getting that ball. It was a 0:11:59.000 --> 0:12:01.520 great play, all right. Only said it was coming. He said, 0:12:01.600 --> 0:12:03.640 I'm gonna be the next New York Jet to have 0:12:03.679 --> 0:12:06.600 a return touchdown. So he comes off with his two 0:12:06.640 --> 0:12:10.199 first professional interceptions and in fact, he takes one of 0:12:10.240 --> 0:12:13.320 the house. After the game, he talks in the locker 0:12:13.400 --> 0:12:17.199 room saying, we knew what was coming. We were prepared 0:12:17.720 --> 0:12:20.480 through our film study. We go all the way back 0:12:20.520 --> 0:12:23.200 to July, and we knew what the lines were doing. 0:12:23.320 --> 0:12:27.280 We had a beat. Can you explain what went into 0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:30.600 the preparation for this ballgame and what a guy means 0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:33.600 when he says that, Well, what he means is when 0:12:33.640 --> 0:12:35.800 you're scouting the team, typically you go back and look 0:12:35.800 --> 0:12:39.440 at the last four regular season games, and there's tendencies. 0:12:39.640 --> 0:12:41.480 You know, a lot of teams will will put up 0:12:41.840 --> 0:12:43.840 you know, put up some hands and and make it 0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:45.880 look different. But a lot of the teams run the 0:12:45.880 --> 0:12:49.079 same route combinations. So so what Darren Lee means is 0:12:49.600 --> 0:12:51.959 their tendencies the same. The routes they were doing, the 0:12:52.040 --> 0:12:54.199 motions that they were doing. We're giving away the routes. 0:12:54.480 --> 0:12:57.079 You can tell by stances of offensive lineman. You can 0:12:57.080 --> 0:13:00.079 tell by splits of receivers. And that all happened was 0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:03.360 with communication. As I said, that defense was communicating, they 0:13:03.440 --> 0:13:06.080 understood what was gonna happen. They were alerting one another 0:13:06.120 --> 0:13:08.600 two plays. And that's what Darren Lee was talking about 0:13:08.600 --> 0:13:10.920 when when he knew the plays, you know, hand signals, 0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:13.040 you have to change that stuff up if you're in offense. 0:13:13.200 --> 0:13:15.240 You know. That's why I credit uh, you know, the Jets, 0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:18.200 the Jets team for for mixing up their tendencies. Like 0:13:18.240 --> 0:13:21.200 I mentioned earlier before and that Robbie Anderson touchdown, the 0:13:21.240 --> 0:13:23.720 tendency is for Robby Anderson to run that dig route. 0:13:23.880 --> 0:13:26.760 He changed it up, went vertical and scored a touchdown. 0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:29.400 The Lions didn't make those changes and they ended up 0:13:29.400 --> 0:13:32.679 in interceptions. They ended up in turnovers for the Jets. Yeah, 0:13:32.760 --> 0:13:34.960 you gotta give the entire coaching staff a lot of 0:13:34.960 --> 0:13:38.319 credit for how prepared this team was a hopening weekend. Absolutely, 0:13:38.400 --> 0:13:40.320 they did. They did a great job of preparing this 0:13:40.400 --> 0:13:43.000 team on all three phases, you know, and you look 0:13:43.040 --> 0:13:44.959 on the other side, it looked like the Lions were 0:13:45.000 --> 0:13:46.520 lost at times, you know, it looked like they weren't 0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:50.080 ready for these situations. But the Jets, Todd Bowls, Casey Rogers, 0:13:50.120 --> 0:13:53.680 Jeremy Bates had this team fully prepared. There there, you 0:13:53.679 --> 0:13:55.959 can see the leadership in this team, and it was 0:13:56.000 --> 0:13:58.640 exciting to watch. All Right, we are ready for the situation, 0:13:58.840 --> 0:14:01.959 Eric Allen and Eric him in here at Vanderbilts. You're 0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:04.959 listening inside. The Jets are gonna be right back. After 0:14:05.040 --> 0:14:10.600 this break. Former sever its back to throw is Donald 0:14:10.600 --> 0:14:13.120 looks left, has time, looks over the middle, fires one 0:14:13.160 --> 0:14:16.520 down the left sideline towards the ends of Robbie Anderson. 0:14:16.920 --> 0:14:21.720 He's got it. That's a Jet touchdown Robbie Anderson, a 0:14:22.000 --> 0:14:26.160 rightful throw from Sam Donald and the Jets extend their lead. 0:14:26.520 --> 0:14:29.560 Donald bouncing back from the pick sticks to start the game. 0:14:31.920 --> 0:14:35.080 We're back here at Inside the Jets Eric Allen alongside 0:14:35.400 --> 0:14:38.480 Eric Coleman. The two ease in the House at Vanderbilts. 0:14:38.560 --> 0:14:42.320 Inside the Jets is presented by e Y building a 0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:47.600 better working world. And like we talked about before, great 0:14:47.640 --> 0:14:51.960 response from Sam Donald there early and he culminated that 0:14:52.040 --> 0:14:55.280 first half of the score and pass to Robbie Anderson 0:14:55.320 --> 0:14:58.480 where those guys made an adjustment on the fly. So 0:14:58.720 --> 0:15:02.040 big time football. Before are we get to Iran staten Island. 0:15:02.200 --> 0:15:06.040 Who's gonna start us off with our calls? Three seven 0:15:06.160 --> 0:15:10.760 seven six E. What about Jamal Adams? What? Man? What 0:15:10.840 --> 0:15:13.200 about the energy he brought to the field last night 0:15:13.520 --> 0:15:17.080 and he finally got that first career interseption. Man, I'm 0:15:17.080 --> 0:15:19.640 so excited, you know, watching him, you know, obviously being 0:15:19.680 --> 0:15:21.400 a former safety, that's the guy who I'm watching on 0:15:21.440 --> 0:15:23.800 the field. But Jamal has you know, from the day 0:15:23.800 --> 0:15:26.600 he walked into this facility, you know last year, he's 0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:29.680 made a big impact. His energy is infectious. Uh. He 0:15:29.720 --> 0:15:31.240 loves a game of football and you can see it 0:15:31.280 --> 0:15:33.880 in the way he plays. And yesterday he was all 0:15:33.920 --> 0:15:36.000 over the place, you know, in coverage, coming up in 0:15:36.040 --> 0:15:38.720 the run game, getting tackles for losses, and he also 0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:40.680 had that that big interception. It was great to see 0:15:40.760 --> 0:15:44.400 him finally get that first interception. I'm extremely happy for him. 0:15:44.480 --> 0:15:46.960 And that's the first of many because this guy going 0:15:47.000 --> 0:15:49.440 into a second year. You know that that first year 0:15:49.480 --> 0:15:51.880 playing safety, you're just out there playing ball. You know, 0:15:51.920 --> 0:15:54.480 you just out there trying to survive. This year that 0:15:54.600 --> 0:15:57.160 second year comes, Now you learn tendencies, Now you learn 0:15:57.280 --> 0:16:00.680 route recognition. Now you start jumping balls and making plays. 0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:02.360 And you're gonna see a lot of that out of 0:16:02.400 --> 0:16:04.800 Marcus May as well as Jamal Adams. So let's go 0:16:04.880 --> 0:16:08.640 to the airways right now, bringing Ira from Staten Island. Ahi, 0:16:08.800 --> 0:16:13.080 how are you buddy? Hey hey Eric, how great great 0:16:13.120 --> 0:16:15.800 way to start off the season after win like last night. 0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:19.280 Just I'll tell you, man, all these years following his team, 0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:22.560 uh full three phases, how they did it last night? 0:16:22.560 --> 0:16:26.360 It was just amazing. It was you know, Eric, you 0:16:26.520 --> 0:16:29.920 really hit on something with how fast his defense looks 0:16:30.320 --> 0:16:33.640 and they sure looks like a last night. And you know, 0:16:34.640 --> 0:16:37.560 I was really surprised how Bold use a lot of 0:16:37.640 --> 0:16:40.840 two defensive lineman at times, and he mixed it in 0:16:40.920 --> 0:16:45.240 with extra linebacker or extra backs and even the special 0:16:45.280 --> 0:16:47.840 teams you know, there was some issues with the punting 0:16:47.880 --> 0:16:49.680 early on in the summer, and now they look like 0:16:49.680 --> 0:16:52.800 they've gone to this directional punting, which they solved that problem. 0:16:53.160 --> 0:16:56.120 I thought Myers was money. And you know, of course 0:16:56.160 --> 0:17:00.160 Donald's a big story. Um, this kid's just you know, 0:17:00.360 --> 0:17:03.760 God willing, he stays healthy. This kid's huture. I think 0:17:03.760 --> 0:17:07.159 the sky's the limit because he has he has stuff 0:17:07.160 --> 0:17:09.720 that you can't coach. He has a pocket presence. He 0:17:09.800 --> 0:17:12.280 knows when the Russia is coming. Um, he could get 0:17:12.320 --> 0:17:15.400 out of the pocket and you know, he could make 0:17:15.440 --> 0:17:19.360 every throw and the future looks right. And even when 0:17:19.359 --> 0:17:21.760 they were in the running game, I mean proel and power. 0:17:21.840 --> 0:17:24.160 That's a really nice can. Then we'll see how Tannon 0:17:24.200 --> 0:17:28.360 comes along. And all summer long, all your ear we fans, Well, 0:17:28.440 --> 0:17:31.000 the Jets don't have a number one receiver. And guess what, 0:17:31.400 --> 0:17:33.760 they got four receivers. And yeah, I'm sure you're you're 0:17:33.800 --> 0:17:37.240 aware of it. They got four receivership had an eight 0:17:37.320 --> 0:17:40.680 hundred yard or more season and that's the only team 0:17:40.680 --> 0:17:43.160 in the NFL that has that. So there's a lot 0:17:43.200 --> 0:17:45.760 more talent on this team than most people think. So 0:17:45.840 --> 0:17:49.200 I'll just coourage what you guys think, yeah, great call 0:17:49.400 --> 0:17:51.920 is always listen. Uh. I want to go back to 0:17:52.000 --> 0:17:56.640 Donald for a second. The quality then I talked about 0:17:56.680 --> 0:18:01.000 early on here on inside of Jets he is, he's 0:18:01.000 --> 0:18:04.960 got special feet. But what you need more than anything 0:18:04.960 --> 0:18:09.040 else to play at the professional level and be successful, 0:18:09.320 --> 0:18:12.119 I think, is that you have to be instinctive. And 0:18:12.280 --> 0:18:16.840 he has a tremendous feel for the game. He can 0:18:16.880 --> 0:18:23.879 feel that pocket collapsing, and he also knows when to 0:18:23.960 --> 0:18:27.400 step up and when to use his feet to advance 0:18:27.560 --> 0:18:29.960 and get the get the yards on the ground, but 0:18:30.160 --> 0:18:36.439 also to extend and use his vision. That he has 0:18:36.880 --> 0:18:41.800 very good vision paired up with instinctive qualities, and those 0:18:41.800 --> 0:18:45.280 are things he can't teach because you butt in so 0:18:45.320 --> 0:18:49.800 many classrooms in your career where guys can process on 0:18:49.840 --> 0:18:52.439 the chalkboard, but they get out on the field and 0:18:52.440 --> 0:18:55.320 it's a completely different story. This guy could process in 0:18:55.359 --> 0:18:59.160 the classroom and then it translates on the field. And 0:18:59.240 --> 0:19:02.080 that's one of his big qualities is his mental side 0:19:02.080 --> 0:19:04.000 of the game. You know, he doesn't he doesn't ever 0:19:04.040 --> 0:19:06.280 seem rattled, you know when he's playing the game, and 0:19:06.280 --> 0:19:08.560 when I see him going through his progressions, that's so 0:19:08.640 --> 0:19:11.520 impressive watching the rookie quarterback do that. You know, I 0:19:11.560 --> 0:19:14.480 think back to my rookie year when with the Jets 0:19:14.520 --> 0:19:17.119 we were playing the Pittsburgh Steelers Ben Roethlisberger in his 0:19:17.200 --> 0:19:20.600 first year. The scouting report on Ben Roethlisberger was that 0:19:20.720 --> 0:19:23.359 he's looking at his number one receiver. If he's not open, 0:19:23.440 --> 0:19:25.520 he's tucking it and running. And that's when he did 0:19:25.600 --> 0:19:27.480 all season long, and he had a lot of success 0:19:27.480 --> 0:19:30.080 doing it. But when I watched Sam Donald, he's going 0:19:30.119 --> 0:19:32.840 through his progression. He's going through his one, two, three receiver. 0:19:33.160 --> 0:19:35.200 Then he's getting outside of the pocket with his eyes 0:19:35.240 --> 0:19:38.520 down the field, making great throws and it's it's it's 0:19:38.560 --> 0:19:41.399 so exciting to see, especially this young in his career. Alright, 0:19:41.400 --> 0:19:43.720 we're taking calls here on and said in said the 0:19:43.760 --> 0:19:47.080
