What's Up, everybody, Welcome to 3 00:00:24,746 --> 00:00:27,226 Speaker 1: the Season with Peter Schreger. I am Peter Schreger. I 4 00:00:27,266 --> 00:00:31,906 Speaker 1: have a son tan slash, sun burn slash, you know, 5 00:00:32,026 --> 00:00:34,866 Speaker 1: patch of sweat all over because I just spent eight 6 00:00:34,906 --> 00:00:38,386 Speaker 1: hours at Jets Camp. I'm joined here by Aaron Wang Kaufman, 7 00:00:38,506 --> 00:00:41,746 Speaker 1: who is the wonderful producer of this program. Aaron, I 8 00:00:41,906 --> 00:00:43,706 Speaker 1: just got back from Flora Park and what did I 9 00:00:43,706 --> 00:00:45,466 Speaker 1: tell you? I'm like, we get on the mics. I 10 00:00:45,466 --> 00:00:47,466 Speaker 1: want to just do a podcast about my Jets Day 11 00:00:47,506 --> 00:00:50,986 Speaker 1: experience for the Jets fans. We made it happen. 12 00:00:51,026 --> 00:00:51,386 Speaker 2: We're here. 13 00:00:51,426 --> 00:00:54,146 Speaker 1: This was I literally texted Aaron what erin twenty minutes ago. 14 00:00:54,826 --> 00:00:58,626 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, basically like we should do it today. I 15 00:00:58,666 --> 00:00:59,266 Speaker 3: think we should do it. 16 00:00:59,826 --> 00:01:02,306 Speaker 1: Here's the thing about training camp. You go for a 17 00:01:02,426 --> 00:01:05,026 Speaker 1: day and then one day is completely different from the 18 00:01:05,026 --> 00:01:08,986 Speaker 1: next day. And Monday at Jets Camp was like one 19 00:01:08,986 --> 00:01:12,626 Speaker 1: of those treasured practices where there's no fans allowed. It's 20 00:01:12,746 --> 00:01:15,266 Speaker 1: close to the fans, so like I felt like I 21 00:01:15,386 --> 00:01:17,786 Speaker 1: was in on like a secret society meeting or something. 22 00:01:17,866 --> 00:01:20,666 Speaker 1: Like the skull and bones. It was a few people. 23 00:01:20,706 --> 00:01:22,706 Speaker 1: There was a couple members of the local Jets media 24 00:01:23,066 --> 00:01:26,746 Speaker 1: who were all wonderful. It was Kyle Branton myself, and 25 00:01:26,786 --> 00:01:30,466 Speaker 1: then it was just the team and it was practice, 26 00:01:30,666 --> 00:01:34,986 Speaker 1: and I will set the stage this way, Aaron. Practice 27 00:01:34,986 --> 00:01:37,426 Speaker 1: starts around ten am Eastern and we're doing good morning 28 00:01:37,466 --> 00:01:39,546 Speaker 1: football because we're from eight to twelve. But there was 29 00:01:40,106 --> 00:01:42,226 Speaker 1: two different blocks where Kyle and I weren't on and 30 00:01:42,266 --> 00:01:44,906 Speaker 1: practice about fifty yards away. And I said to our 31 00:01:44,946 --> 00:01:47,226 Speaker 1: producer Cody, I'm like, is it cool if Kyle and 32 00:01:47,226 --> 00:01:49,066 Speaker 1: I just step off and go check out practice for 33 00:01:49,066 --> 00:01:50,906 Speaker 1: a little bit. And he's like, yeah, sure, go dude, 34 00:01:50,906 --> 00:01:53,946 Speaker 1: dot do. So I go to Eric Gelfand, who runs 35 00:01:54,146 --> 00:01:56,346 Speaker 1: pr and communications for the Jets. I'm like, we want 36 00:01:56,346 --> 00:01:58,346 Speaker 1: to go watch practice, but we need credentials can be 37 00:01:58,466 --> 00:02:00,826 Speaker 1: like I'll walk, you come with me. So Eric takes 38 00:02:00,866 --> 00:02:01,386 Speaker 1: me and Kyle. 39 00:02:01,426 --> 00:02:01,786 Speaker 4: We walk. 40 00:02:02,026 --> 00:02:05,066 Speaker 1: Not ten seconds to this walk, does a ball come 41 00:02:05,106 --> 00:02:08,306 Speaker 1: whizzing at us, bounces right at Kyle's feet, Like what 42 00:02:08,346 --> 00:02:12,186 Speaker 1: the hell? Look up and it's Rogers and he's flung 43 00:02:12,226 --> 00:02:15,106 Speaker 1: one forty yards at us on purpose and he waves 44 00:02:15,146 --> 00:02:18,306 Speaker 1: and he's like, what's up fellows like, hey, Aaron Rodgers, 45 00:02:18,946 --> 00:02:22,466 Speaker 1: how are you, buddy? Because of the scheduling of the 46 00:02:22,466 --> 00:02:24,226 Speaker 1: practice and our show, he couldn't sit down with us, 47 00:02:24,226 --> 00:02:26,826 Speaker 1: so that was his greeting. So then Kyle had this 48 00:02:26,866 --> 00:02:29,346 Speaker 1: big moment where it's like the whole team is watching. 49 00:02:29,506 --> 00:02:32,426 Speaker 1: Rogers just flung a pass at us. Aaron, what do 50 00:02:32,466 --> 00:02:35,026 Speaker 1: you do? Do you pick up the ball and run 51 00:02:35,066 --> 00:02:37,586 Speaker 1: it over to him? Do you underhand toss it to 52 00:02:37,626 --> 00:02:40,986 Speaker 1: a coach who's nearby Rogers is forty yards away, or 53 00:02:41,026 --> 00:02:43,026 Speaker 1: do you just in front of ninety of the biggest 54 00:02:43,026 --> 00:02:46,106 Speaker 1: alphas in the world, of the top one percent of 55 00:02:46,106 --> 00:02:48,666 Speaker 1: the one percent, do you attempt to pass back? What 56 00:02:48,746 --> 00:02:49,346 Speaker 1: would you do? 57 00:02:49,746 --> 00:02:52,426 Speaker 3: So as someone who just last week while playing tennis 58 00:02:52,426 --> 00:02:55,186 Speaker 3: with my mom a second day in a row, hit 59 00:02:55,266 --> 00:02:57,466 Speaker 3: one ball out and had to throw it back over 60 00:02:57,506 --> 00:02:59,946 Speaker 3: the fence and just threw the first one back over 61 00:02:59,986 --> 00:03:01,506 Speaker 3: totally fine, and the second one I'm. 62 00:03:01,426 --> 00:03:02,546 Speaker 1: In at the top of the fence. It comes. 63 00:03:03,786 --> 00:03:07,146 Speaker 3: It's very embarrassing. I am not throwing forty I am 64 00:03:07,226 --> 00:03:08,426 Speaker 3: running that ball to him. 65 00:03:08,546 --> 00:03:11,226 Speaker 1: Kyle Bryant picks up the ball and like we're laughing 66 00:03:11,226 --> 00:03:13,666 Speaker 1: because Rogers was like it was a as much as 67 00:03:13,706 --> 00:03:15,826 Speaker 1: a sign of affection for someone in the media. Is 68 00:03:15,866 --> 00:03:17,506 Speaker 1: Rogers slinging a ball at us, That's what it is. 69 00:03:18,026 --> 00:03:20,546 Speaker 1: Kyle cocks it back, and I've seen Kyle throw one 70 00:03:20,586 --> 00:03:25,946 Speaker 1: hundred footballs. He throws a forty yard tight spiral whizz 71 00:03:25,946 --> 00:03:28,226 Speaker 1: is it back and Rogers catches it with two hands 72 00:03:28,266 --> 00:03:29,866 Speaker 1: like this and then gives one of these like a 73 00:03:29,866 --> 00:03:33,106 Speaker 1: big like peace sign. And then practice continues, and I'm 74 00:03:33,146 --> 00:03:34,786 Speaker 1: like Kyle, and he's like, I don't know what came 75 00:03:34,786 --> 00:03:37,026 Speaker 1: over me, Like adrenaline. He looked like Marino. He just 76 00:03:37,066 --> 00:03:38,306 Speaker 1: flung it back there. 77 00:03:39,626 --> 00:03:39,946 Speaker 2: Aaron. 78 00:03:39,986 --> 00:03:43,786 Speaker 1: The vibes are so good at jet Scamp, so good. 79 00:03:44,466 --> 00:03:47,306 Speaker 1: I don't know what to do because I feel like 80 00:03:47,346 --> 00:03:51,346 Speaker 1: this is one of those deals where it's like, you know, 81 00:03:51,866 --> 00:03:54,586 Speaker 1: imagine a woman will say a woman. It could be 82 00:03:54,626 --> 00:03:55,746 Speaker 1: a man, but let's just say a woman. I don't 83 00:03:55,746 --> 00:03:57,666 Speaker 1: know if when you get canceled for this woman falls 84 00:03:57,666 --> 00:04:02,146 Speaker 1: in love with a guy, they get engaged, everything's going right, 85 00:04:02,186 --> 00:04:05,186 Speaker 1: and then get stood up at the altar, and then 86 00:04:05,266 --> 00:04:09,706 Speaker 1: exactly twelve months to the day, meets another man and 87 00:04:09,746 --> 00:04:10,946 Speaker 1: he wants to get engaged. 88 00:04:12,066 --> 00:04:12,666 Speaker 2: You hesitate. 89 00:04:12,706 --> 00:04:14,946 Speaker 1: If you're that woman, you'd say I had just been 90 00:04:14,946 --> 00:04:17,106 Speaker 1: through a really crazy like do you maybe this is 91 00:04:17,186 --> 00:04:20,986 Speaker 1: Jets fans right now? They got four plays into the season, 92 00:04:21,386 --> 00:04:24,426 Speaker 1: it all went and exploded, and it was disastrous that 93 00:04:24,546 --> 00:04:26,386 Speaker 1: it was the worst thing you can imagine. And it's like, 94 00:04:26,546 --> 00:04:30,026 Speaker 1: all right, fool me once. I'm not gonna let I'm 95 00:04:30,026 --> 00:04:32,746 Speaker 1: not gonna believe again. But Aaron, when I tell you, 96 00:04:32,986 --> 00:04:35,906 Speaker 1: I'm at this practice, and the offense is just Christmas 97 00:04:35,986 --> 00:04:39,186 Speaker 1: hell in the offensive line, like you can tell the difference, 98 00:04:39,346 --> 00:04:41,586 Speaker 1: Like Morgan Moses is out there, it's like an adult 99 00:04:41,666 --> 00:04:44,066 Speaker 1: on the offensive line. And you're looking at the different 100 00:04:44,106 --> 00:04:47,106 Speaker 1: players on the field and it's Garrett Wilson and Brice Hall, 101 00:04:47,186 --> 00:04:49,546 Speaker 1: and then on the other side of the ball, it's 102 00:04:49,586 --> 00:04:54,026 Speaker 1: like all Pro after all Pro, and it's Quinn Williams 103 00:04:54,066 --> 00:04:57,066 Speaker 1: and his brother Quincy Williams, and then it's Sauce Gardner. 104 00:04:57,146 --> 00:04:59,186 Speaker 1: But then, oh yeah, they have CJ. Moseley still and oh, 105 00:04:59,226 --> 00:05:02,306 Speaker 1: Solomon Thomas is an absolute, you know, menace in the middle, 106 00:05:02,386 --> 00:05:06,026 Speaker 1: and gosh, they have so much talent everywhere at every position. 107 00:05:06,106 --> 00:05:08,226 Speaker 1: And and there's Aaron Rodgers, who I don't think throwing 108 00:05:08,306 --> 00:05:13,866 Speaker 1: to complete the entire entire practice, I don't know what 109 00:05:13,906 --> 00:05:16,826 Speaker 1: to do about these Jets, because I too picked them 110 00:05:16,866 --> 00:05:19,986 Speaker 1: to win the AFC East last year. I too had 111 00:05:20,026 --> 00:05:21,466 Speaker 1: them go into the Super Bowl until like the last 112 00:05:21,506 --> 00:05:23,106 Speaker 1: second when I'm like, I can't pick. I gotst the Chiefs, 113 00:05:23,146 --> 00:05:25,266 Speaker 1: and I picked the Chiefs and then four plays in, 114 00:05:25,386 --> 00:05:26,706 Speaker 1: Rogers got hurt and it was one of the worst 115 00:05:26,746 --> 00:05:31,146 Speaker 1: seasons ever. I was talking with someone within the organization 116 00:05:32,106 --> 00:05:33,946 Speaker 1: and I'm like, is it as good as it looks? 117 00:05:33,946 --> 00:05:36,106 Speaker 1: And it's like, sh don't even say it out loud, 118 00:05:36,346 --> 00:05:39,586 Speaker 1: like that is how everyone feels like it is so good, 119 00:05:39,746 --> 00:05:43,186 Speaker 1: and sala isn't talking to the media and like no 120 00:05:43,186 --> 00:05:46,186 Speaker 1: one's closer with Robert Sala in the in the media 121 00:05:46,226 --> 00:05:47,266 Speaker 1: then me And I'm like, do you want to come 122 00:05:47,306 --> 00:05:49,106 Speaker 1: on our show, Good Morning Football. It's a friendly place, 123 00:05:49,146 --> 00:05:51,786 Speaker 1: like we'll just talk, we'll just do whatever. And he's like, no, 124 00:05:52,426 --> 00:05:54,866 Speaker 1: I'm not doing media. It's all about football right now. 125 00:05:54,826 --> 00:05:59,546 Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, respect it. They're dialed in, they're healthy, 126 00:06:00,146 --> 00:06:03,626 Speaker 1: everything looks to be clicking, and yet there's this feeling 127 00:06:03,626 --> 00:06:07,826 Speaker 1: of like I can't believe because I've been believing for 128 00:06:07,866 --> 00:06:10,546 Speaker 1: so long, and it just it blows up in your face. 129 00:06:11,386 --> 00:06:13,906 Speaker 1: For this podcast, I don't want to go through the 130 00:06:14,026 --> 00:06:15,706 Speaker 1: entire day of practice. What I'm gonna do is I'm 131 00:06:15,706 --> 00:06:18,466 Speaker 1: gonna toss to clips of interviews we did while we 132 00:06:18,466 --> 00:06:22,506 Speaker 1: were there for Jets camp. And the first one is 133 00:06:22,986 --> 00:06:24,226 Speaker 1: a guy that I think is going to be a 134 00:06:24,226 --> 00:06:26,706 Speaker 1: breakout star of this season if he wasn't a year ago. 135 00:06:26,826 --> 00:06:31,666 Speaker 1: It's the linebacker Quincy Williams. Some backstory on Quincy. He's 136 00:06:31,706 --> 00:06:33,826 Speaker 1: a third round pick of the Jaguars, lasted a couple 137 00:06:33,866 --> 00:06:35,466 Speaker 1: of years there and then the Jets picked him up. 138 00:06:35,466 --> 00:06:39,106 Speaker 1: He's Quinn Williams's brother, all right. The two of them 139 00:06:39,106 --> 00:06:41,546 Speaker 1: are brothers. They both play in the same defense. He 140 00:06:41,666 --> 00:06:45,226 Speaker 1: was a nickelback in college, meaning he played safety for 141 00:06:45,226 --> 00:06:47,186 Speaker 1: the most part, and now he's probably one of the 142 00:06:47,186 --> 00:06:49,626 Speaker 1: top three linebackers in the league. He was an All 143 00:06:49,666 --> 00:06:51,826 Speaker 1: Pro last year, and when the NFL one hundred released 144 00:06:51,826 --> 00:06:55,786 Speaker 1: their top one hundred players over the week, Quincy Williams 145 00:06:55,826 --> 00:06:58,946 Speaker 1: was the highest rated Jet at number thirty two.

I'm not one of those 984 00:39:17,986 --> 00:39:20,746 Speaker 10: type of guys. Like I went to the course up 985 00:39:20,786 --> 00:39:22,986 Speaker 10: the street, Pittsbrook, Okay, and I got it to the 986 00:39:23,026 --> 00:39:25,466 Speaker 10: point where every time I went, I was playing with 987 00:39:25,546 --> 00:39:27,506 Speaker 10: one of the younger guys that worked there. 988 00:39:27,986 --> 00:39:29,266 Speaker 7: The pros or something, the golf pro. 989 00:39:29,666 --> 00:39:30,146 Speaker 2: No, I don't know. 990 00:39:30,386 --> 00:39:32,706 Speaker 7: He's probably like an amateur, drives the ball cart. 991 00:39:33,626 --> 00:39:35,226 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I was playing. I was playing with him. 992 00:39:35,986 --> 00:39:37,346 Speaker 2: Cool guy.

I heard I heard a lot 998 00:39:47,706 --> 00:39:49,626 Speaker 2: about him. But you know, he got a good. 999 00:39:49,506 --> 00:39:50,586 Speaker 4: Swing, Oh my god. 1000 00:39:50,666 --> 00:39:52,906 Speaker 2: Disciplined, very disciplined. 1001 00:39:53,066 --> 00:39:54,826 Speaker 7: He's got a good swing. He's got a great corner. 1002 00:39:54,906 --> 00:39:55,786 Speaker 7: He got a great team. 1003 00:39:56,066 --> 00:39:57,346 Speaker 4: The Beasts so fun. 1004 00:39:57,426 --> 00:39:59,666 Speaker 7: You're just so chilled and so relaxed and so good 1005 00:40:02,466 --> 00:40:06,106 Speaker 7: us in the entire NFL. He loves Northern New Jersey and. 1006 00:40:09,906 --> 00:40:11,266 Speaker 4: We love you you got a. 1007 00:40:11,226 --> 00:40:13,626 Speaker 1: Couple of things on Sauce Gardener, because if you're listening, 1008 00:40:13,746 --> 00:40:15,466 Speaker 1: you don't get the full visual. He comes in with 1009 00:40:15,626 --> 00:40:20,466 Speaker 1: the full grill, comes in with the bedazzled slides on, 1010 00:40:21,226 --> 00:40:23,786 Speaker 1: and you're like, all right, sauce Gardener, where the crazy 1011 00:40:23,866 --> 00:40:26,546 Speaker 1: gold chain of like the hot sauce at the at 1012 00:40:26,586 --> 00:40:29,346 Speaker 1: the draft. Like this guy's got a huge personality. Then 1013 00:40:29,386 --> 00:40:32,106 Speaker 1: you listen to him, he's like an old soul, Like 1014 00:40:32,186 --> 00:40:35,546 Speaker 1: he's just smart and he's hard working and he's grounded. 1015 00:40:36,186 --> 00:40:39,466 Speaker 1: Couple notes from that interview. One he chooses to spend 1016 00:40:39,586 --> 00:40:43,066 Speaker 1: his off seasons living in Florham Park, New Jersey. Now 1017 00:40:43,106 --> 00:40:46,106 Speaker 1: you might think, okay, of course he's a jet in 1018 00:40:46,266 --> 00:40:48,306 Speaker 1: like New York City. He spends his off he does 1019 00:40:48,386 --> 00:40:50,586 Speaker 1: not spend it. He doesn't go to the city much. 1020 00:40:50,826 --> 00:40:53,186 Speaker 1: It doesn't sound like he's a city guy. He spends 1021 00:40:53,266 --> 00:40:56,266 Speaker 1: it in the suburbs of floram Park, New Jersey, which, 1022 00:40:56,786 --> 00:41:00,346 Speaker 1: having just been there, is strip mall after strip mall 1023 00:41:00,546 --> 00:41:05,666 Speaker 1: after strip mall, Starbucks, Panera, bread, dunkin Donuts, chop salad, 1024 00:41:05,866 --> 00:41:08,386 Speaker 1: like that's what we're talking about. And he does that 1025 00:41:08,506 --> 00:41:10,426 Speaker 1: because he's committed to being at the Jets facility every 1026 00:41:10,506 --> 00:41:12,066 Speaker 1: days where he trains. So a lot of these guys 1027 00:41:12,106 --> 00:41:14,826 Speaker 1: go to Arizona, they go to Florida, they go to Hawaii, 1028 00:41:14,946 --> 00:41:18,026 Speaker 1: they go to Mikonos. This dude chooses to be in 1029 00:41:18,186 --> 00:41:20,706 Speaker 1: Jersey as a young kid. You heard him in the interview. 1030 00:41:21,226 --> 00:41:22,746 Speaker 1: He's never been outside the country. 1031 00:41:23,026 --> 00:41:23,226 Speaker 2: Never. 1032 00:41:23,786 --> 00:41:25,786 Speaker 1: He's going week five when they play the Vikings, and 1033 00:41:25,866 --> 00:41:28,386 Speaker 1: it's like, that's gonna be the first trip outside the country, 1034 00:41:28,426 --> 00:41:31,746 Speaker 1: first trip to Europe, first role, global experience for him. 1035 00:41:31,746 --> 00:41:33,826 Speaker 1: And it's like, he's just not that guy as much 1036 00:41:33,826 --> 00:41:36,146 Speaker 1: as you think he's flashy, and he's like, you know, 1037 00:41:36,426 --> 00:41:38,706 Speaker 1: Sauce Gardener, and he's got the nickname, and he plays 1038 00:41:38,826 --> 00:41:41,266 Speaker 1: with you know, he doesn't have a big mouth. He's 1039 00:41:41,386 --> 00:41:43,826 Speaker 1: very self spoken, and I think he is just so 1040 00:41:43,986 --> 00:41:48,186 Speaker 1: dedicated to his craft. I loved talking to Sauce today. Second, 1041 00:41:49,066 --> 00:41:52,866 Speaker 1: he must have mentioned Tyreek Hill's new contract a thousand times. No, 1042 00:41:53,026 --> 00:41:55,426 Speaker 1: in all honesty, probably about five or six times. And 1043 00:41:56,226 --> 00:42:00,106 Speaker 1: Tyreek has reset the barometer for what we're making as 1044 00:42:00,146 --> 00:42:02,746 Speaker 1: a receiver. I think Sauce Gardner, who's gonna be up 1045 00:42:02,746 --> 00:42:05,426 Speaker 1: for a contract rather soon, is gonna set the standard 1046 00:42:05,506 --> 00:42:07,546 Speaker 1: for what we're paying Corners, and I don't think he 1047 00:42:07,706 --> 00:42:11,186 Speaker 1: is being subtle about it, like he wants to get 1048 00:42:11,226 --> 00:42:14,306 Speaker 1: paid and he's going to do it this year. The 1049 00:42:14,466 --> 00:42:18,066 Speaker 1: Rogers Sasus relationships interesting seventeen year difference, and yet these 1050 00:42:18,146 --> 00:42:21,346 Speaker 1: two guys, they seem like they're really good friends. And 1051 00:42:21,426 --> 00:42:24,786 Speaker 1: Saw said it there, like Rogers is just cool. He's 1052 00:42:24,866 --> 00:42:26,866 Speaker 1: cool and he relates to the younger guys, and I 1053 00:42:26,946 --> 00:42:27,346 Speaker 1: think that's. 1054 00:42:27,306 --> 00:42:27,906 Speaker 4: Gonna be key. 1055 00:42:28,946 --> 00:42:32,786 Speaker 1: My closing thought on the Jets and why I think 1056 00:42:32,786 --> 00:42:35,066 Speaker 1: they're winning now team when they had to find a 1057 00:42:35,106 --> 00:42:38,706 Speaker 1: backup quarterback, they didn't draft a rookie in the second round. 1058 00:42:38,706 --> 00:42:41,426 Speaker 1: They didn't go They signed Tyrod Taylor and they gave 1059 00:42:41,506 --> 00:42:44,466 Speaker 1: him real money and he's thirty five years old. That 1060 00:42:44,586 --> 00:42:47,066 Speaker 1: tells me they win now because last year they had 1061 00:42:47,186 --> 00:42:49,346 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson and it wasn't like they were caught with 1062 00:42:49,386 --> 00:42:51,386 Speaker 1: their pants down. Zak Wilson was number two overall pick 1063 00:42:51,386 --> 00:42:52,946 Speaker 1: and it started a bunch of games in this league, 1064 00:42:53,666 --> 00:42:56,386 Speaker 1: but it just wasn't happening. It was they couldn't get 1065 00:42:56,386 --> 00:42:58,266 Speaker 1: to where they needed to be. This year, they leave 1066 00:42:58,306 --> 00:43:00,146 Speaker 1: no room for error. They bring in Tyrod, who I 1067 00:43:00,226 --> 00:43:02,426 Speaker 1: was watching today and is dialed in and looks great 1068 00:43:02,906 --> 00:43:04,866 Speaker 1: like if Rogers, God forbid goes down. And I don't 1069 00:43:04,866 --> 00:43:06,586 Speaker 1: even like saying it out loud, but he is. It's 1070 00:43:06,586 --> 00:43:09,386 Speaker 1: a forty year old guy coming off from Achilles. Tyrod 1071 00:43:09,386 --> 00:43:12,386 Speaker 1: Taylor can win you games. They are not here to 1072 00:43:12,706 --> 00:43:15,386 Speaker 1: just kind of put up some defensive effort and not 1073 00:43:15,506 --> 00:43:17,586 Speaker 1: score points. Tyrod can move the ball. And you know what, 1074 00:43:17,706 --> 00:43:19,586 Speaker 1: they got him from the Crosstown Giants because they paid 1075 00:43:19,666 --> 00:43:22,306 Speaker 1: him more. Tyrod Taylor's legit, and he's a legit. Number two. 1076 00:43:22,586 --> 00:43:25,906 Speaker 1: You're talking about a skill position bonanza with what they've 1077 00:43:25,906 --> 00:43:27,906 Speaker 1: got on offense. And then of course you've got this 1078 00:43:28,026 --> 00:43:30,306 Speaker 1: loaded defense at all three levels, and we heard three 1079 00:43:30,346 --> 00:43:32,706 Speaker 1: of them just now. It's hard for me not to 1080 00:43:32,746 --> 00:43:34,426 Speaker 1: fall in love with the Jets. And it might be 1081 00:43:34,586 --> 00:43:37,546 Speaker 1: just recency bias. It might just be well they're local 1082 00:43:37,626 --> 00:43:39,786 Speaker 1: and you're in the mix. I don't know. I look 1083 00:43:39,826 --> 00:43:43,346 Speaker 1: at the perfect storm here. Jets have this great vibe 1084 00:43:43,386 --> 00:43:46,826 Speaker 1: going under the radar. Bills this offseason lost Digs, they 1085 00:43:46,906 --> 00:43:50,266 Speaker 1: lost Gabe Davis. The Dolphins they lost you know, Christian 1086 00:43:50,306 --> 00:43:53,586 Speaker 1: Wilkins and Xavian Howard and Van Ginkel, and then of 1087 00:43:53,666 --> 00:43:56,026 Speaker 1: course the Patriots are in pure rebuilding mode, like this 1088 00:43:56,226 --> 00:43:58,346 Speaker 1: is the year that the Jets should win the AFC East. 1089 00:43:58,866 --> 00:44:01,066 Speaker 1: They should at least compete with the Dolphins and Bills, 1090 00:44:01,466 --> 00:44:03,586 Speaker 1: and they may be on paper, are better than both. 1091 00:44:03,946 --> 00:44:06,346 Speaker 1: Those are my dispatches from Jets camp. I am playing. 1092 00:44:06,466 --> 00:44:10,266 Speaker 1: I'm being at Giants camp tomorrow joint practice Lions and Giants. 1093 00:44:10,306 --> 00:44:12,066 Speaker 1: I can give my takeaways. Aaron, do you think we 1094 00:44:12,106 --> 00:44:13,626 Speaker 1: could swing this tomorrow for a podcast. 1095 00:44:13,706 --> 00:44:16,666 Speaker 3: Yeah, as long as you promised me that you're gonna 1096 00:44:16,706 --> 00:44:19,306 Speaker 3: do like a field goal kick while you're there or something. 1097 00:44:19,346 --> 00:44:22,546 Speaker 1: You got to show up Kyle, now I think yeah, no, no, no, no, no, 1098 00:44:22,666 --> 00:44:26,066 Speaker 1: don't dude. That's that's Kyle. That let him be the physical. 1099 00:44:26,346 --> 00:44:29,626 Speaker 1: I am the intellectual, the guy with the insights. Kyle 1100 00:44:29,786 --> 00:44:31,506 Speaker 1: is the creative. He's the one who does things like 1101 00:44:31,546 --> 00:44:33,666 Speaker 1: throw forty yard passes to Aaron Rodgers. I wouldn't even 1102 00:44:33,706 --> 00:44:40,026 Speaker 1: dare attempt it. I appreciate you hopping on. I hope 1103 00:44:40,026 --> 00:44:41,986 Speaker 1: you Jets fans can get excited from this. Those are 1104 00:44:42,026 --> 00:44:44,906 Speaker 1: three great interviews, three great players, and the sky is 1105 00:44:44,946 --> 00:44:47,986 Speaker 1: the limit. But of course it's early August. We're recording 1106 00:44:48,026 --> 00:44:50,426 Speaker 1: this on Monday, August fifth.

Buyer beware, and yet 1110 00:44:56,266 --> 00:44:59,226 Speaker 1: I think I'm falling in love. Till next time. This 1111 00:44:59,346 --> 00:45:01,706 Speaker 1: is Peter Scherger.
