WEBVTT - LISTEN | Bart Scott on Jets-Chiefs (10/27) 0:00:03.160 --> 0:00:06.200 Welcome to another edition of the Official Jets Podcast powered 0:00:06.240 --> 0:00:09.600 by Amazon Web Services. Ethan Greenberg, Eric Allen here in 0:00:09.600 --> 0:00:12.600 the bet MGM studio will be joined by Bart Scott 0:00:12.680 --> 0:00:15.760 later in the episode for our Vics Tornox Swiss Army 0:00:15.800 --> 0:00:18.200 Knife player of the Game segment as did Jets prepare 0:00:18.400 --> 0:00:21.520 to face the defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs 0:00:21.720 --> 0:00:24.640 And before we talk anything Jets Chiefs with Bart Scott, 0:00:26.120 --> 0:00:28.320 it's it's week eight of the season, which is crazy 0:00:28.920 --> 0:00:31.920 with this season has flown by. It seemed like yesterday 0:00:31.960 --> 0:00:35.000 that we were here inside the bed MGM studio for 0:00:35.000 --> 0:00:38.840 the first time doing training camp live show, and now 0:00:38.920 --> 0:00:43.880 we're eight weeks into the NFL season, which is just amazing, 0:00:43.920 --> 0:00:47.800 it really is. But you know, for the Jets right now, 0:00:47.880 --> 0:00:50.920 you saw some positive steps the previous Sunday against the 0:00:50.960 --> 0:00:56.680 Buffalo Bills, but that challenges It is a tall task 0:00:56.800 --> 0:01:00.560 going to Kansas City anytime, much less. Wow, this is 0:01:00.560 --> 0:01:03.320 the defending Super Bowl champions and you're just a team 0:01:03.400 --> 0:01:06.039 just looking for his first win. And any team too, 0:01:06.080 --> 0:01:08.880 I mean any time, any team going to Kansas City. 0:01:09.080 --> 0:01:12.319 I believe they allow fans also in Kansas City. I 0:01:12.319 --> 0:01:14.759 could be wrong. On that, but I'm almost positive they do, 0:01:15.200 --> 0:01:20.360 so there's gonna be some form of crowd element there also, Yeah, 0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:23.120 you know, and you get somewhat of a break that 0:01:23.200 --> 0:01:27.760 there's not seventy people arrowhead. But this team, you can 0:01:27.800 --> 0:01:32.440 make the argument that they have the most valuable player 0:01:32.520 --> 0:01:36.680 in the National Football League lead that offensive, Patrick Mahomes, 0:01:36.720 --> 0:01:38.840 and he's got so many weapons on the offensive side 0:01:38.840 --> 0:01:42.520 of the ball, and defense plunk playing well as well. 0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:47.000 So listen, any team going into Kansas City is a 0:01:47.040 --> 0:01:50.240 tough challenge and the Jets are going to be up 0:01:50.280 --> 0:01:53.200 against it. Let's see if they can find a way 0:01:53.360 --> 0:01:55.960 to get to the fourth quarter and just give yourself 0:01:56.000 --> 0:01:58.760 a chance. The Jets did that very well against the 0:01:58.760 --> 0:02:01.640 Buffalo Bills. Just passed Sunday, held the Bills out of 0:02:01.640 --> 0:02:05.080 the end zone multiple times, including times where you thought, oh, 0:02:05.120 --> 0:02:07.080 maybe the Bills are finally gonna get one, like when 0:02:07.200 --> 0:02:10.839 Josh Allen hits Tyler Croft down the left sideline, they're 0:02:10.880 --> 0:02:14.280 in the red zone. The Jets held back to back possessions, 0:02:14.320 --> 0:02:18.840 gave the offense a chance. But one player on defense, 0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:22.040 and I think we should highlight because I think he's 0:02:22.080 --> 0:02:24.800 played well, maybe a little under the radar over the 0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:28.280 first seven games quinnin Williams, and he has three sacks 0:02:28.280 --> 0:02:32.400 so far on the season, and right now, I would 0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:35.639 say that he's definitely shown progress from that year one 0:02:35.680 --> 0:02:37.840 to year two jump that you'd like to see for 0:02:37.960 --> 0:02:40.160 all rookies. Well, first off, he's got to clean up 0:02:40.200 --> 0:02:42.400 the flags. We know that, and he would probably be 0:02:42.440 --> 0:02:44.960 the first one to tell you that. But from an 0:02:44.960 --> 0:02:47.960 interior position, he's been very solid against the run. And 0:02:48.000 --> 0:02:50.920 you mentioned the sect totals. This is a guy continues 0:02:50.960 --> 0:02:54.560 to press the pocket up the middle and quarterbacks don't 0:02:54.600 --> 0:02:57.920 like that. And we often forget that quinnin Williams is 0:02:57.960 --> 0:03:01.160 just in his second season here. So let's say he 0:03:01.200 --> 0:03:04.560 gets another sack, maybe he gets Mahomes down this weekend, 0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:07.000 and you're hoping that happens if you're a Jets fan. 0:03:07.400 --> 0:03:11.919 But if you're getting an interior rusher who has eight sacks, 0:03:11.960 --> 0:03:16.919 who's very good against the run, who's often drawing double teams, 0:03:17.080 --> 0:03:19.640 that's what you were looking for when you drafted Quinn 0:03:19.680 --> 0:03:24.160 and Williams the previous April. So I think signs arrows 0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:26.720 are pointing up with this guy. I like his motor, 0:03:26.960 --> 0:03:29.919 he's got unique athletic ability. We always talk about how 0:03:29.960 --> 0:03:33.400 low to the ground he is built, and he's explosive 0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:35.600 off the ball, and I would say he's got a 0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:38.680 really quick first step. Also that you've seen him burst 0:03:38.680 --> 0:03:40.600 through the line a couple of times. He had two 0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:43.240 sacks against the Niners in Week two. He had one 0:03:43.360 --> 0:03:47.600 yesterday against the Bills. And I think that Quinn and 0:03:47.640 --> 0:03:49.920 Williams is a player. You mentioned the sack total. If 0:03:49.920 --> 0:03:52.600 he were to get eight sacks, let's say, right, just 0:03:52.640 --> 0:03:54.920 to put things into personally, it's possible. Let's just say 0:03:54.960 --> 0:03:57.520 that right now, he's got three sacks through seven games, 0:03:57.560 --> 0:04:00.480 that is quite possible that he can end the year 0:04:00.880 --> 0:04:03.560 finishing with that kind of sector. Right, So with that 0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:06.400 in mind, if he were to finish with eight sacks, 0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:09.760 eight sacks is but Jordan Jenkins led the Jets with 0:04:10.160 --> 0:04:12.400 last season, so to get that kind of production from 0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:15.080 up the middle is very impressive. And there's another very 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:18.919 impressive defensive tackle the Jets will see this weekend, Chris Jones, 0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:21.359 who has four and a half sacks, which is crazy 0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:24.680 to think from an interior position, but he's a great player. 0:04:24.760 --> 0:04:26.839 Quinnin Williams, you know one and a half sacks back 0:04:26.880 --> 0:04:30.359 through seven games, not too shabby. No, Jones is a 0:04:30.360 --> 0:04:33.080 great player, so the Jets offensive line is gonna have 0:04:33.240 --> 0:04:36.720 to uh take care of him. I don't know how 0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:39.600 many times he can go single against him. You're gonna 0:04:39.640 --> 0:04:43.120 have to double him a lot. But what Williams is 0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:46.560 gonna be able to do, It's gonna take the pressure 0:04:46.680 --> 0:04:50.039 off the outside guys because if you have somebody you 0:04:50.120 --> 0:04:53.599 have to account for in the middle, then those guys 0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:56.120 on the outside they just gotta win their one on 0:04:56.160 --> 0:05:00.560 one matchups. And the other guy who's been pretty good 0:05:00.600 --> 0:05:02.760 I think for the Jets in another name out of 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:04.920 the radars, John Franklin Myers. He came up with the 0:05:04.960 --> 0:05:10.000 fumble recovery when Terrell Basham got the corner on I 0:05:10.040 --> 0:05:12.560 believe right tackle Darryl Williams and the Buffalo Bills and 0:05:12.600 --> 0:05:15.720 he knocked the ball out of Josh Allen's hands, and 0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:17.919 Franklin Myers was right there. He comes up with the 0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:21.120 fumble recovery. But those are two guys who I think 0:05:21.160 --> 0:05:25.120 have been bringing bringing it on the interior. The question 0:05:25.160 --> 0:05:28.720 for the Jets over the years has always been who's 0:05:28.800 --> 0:05:31.800 the guy threatening you on the outside, So it's It's 0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:34.960 good to see bash getting them in the backfield, and 0:05:35.000 --> 0:05:37.279 he's made some plays the last couple of weeks. Now, 0:05:37.360 --> 0:05:41.080 Tarrell Basham two sacks in as many weeks. He had 0:05:41.080 --> 0:05:44.680 one against the Bills forced fumble and one against the Dolphins, 0:05:44.680 --> 0:05:47.800 his first of the two thousand twenty season. And when 0:05:47.839 --> 0:05:52.239 you look at this Jets roster, we talked about guys 0:05:52.240 --> 0:05:54.520 throughout the season like Joe Flaccol and Frank Gore, who 0:05:54.560 --> 0:05:58.600 are obviously and the latter halves or third or they're 0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:00.839 close to the end of their career right respectively. So 0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:02.880 you would assume I'm not gonna put that out there. 0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:05.320 I realized that, as I said, Gore is the kind 0:06:05.320 --> 0:06:07.640 of guy you wouldn't be surprised if he's playing fifty. 0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:13.680 But with knowing those two guys are old for NFL years, right, 0:06:14.960 --> 0:06:16.880 We've talked about them a lot, But the Jets have 0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:19.479 a lot of young players throughout the roster that I 0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:23.520 think of been at least somewhat productive for the team 0:06:23.560 --> 0:06:25.479 when their numbers called. I mean, the first guy that 0:06:26.200 --> 0:06:27.920 comes to mind when I said that is like Jeff 0:06:27.960 --> 0:06:30.600 Smith in Week four, comes off of I R. He 0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:33.719 immediately has a good game, and then against the Bills, 0:06:34.040 --> 0:06:36.640 Denzel Mims comes off of I R Saturday and he 0:06:36.680 --> 0:06:39.760 has forty yards in the first half. Granted, you'd like 0:06:39.839 --> 0:06:42.560 to see more from Denzel Mims in the second half 0:06:42.560 --> 0:06:45.200 in the offense as a total, I mean totally four 0:06:45.279 --> 0:06:47.440 yards in the second half. You've got to be better 0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:50.720 than that. But I think that you liked what you 0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:53.560 saw out of MIM's at least in his first NFL action. 0:06:53.640 --> 0:06:55.160 Can I go back to the defensive side of the 0:06:55.160 --> 0:06:58.040 ball real quick? I gotta get props to Bryce Off, 0:06:58.200 --> 0:07:01.440 undrafted free agent a Memphis who had his first career 0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:05.679 sack against the Miami Dolphins. And then Sunday, the Bills 0:07:06.040 --> 0:07:10.360 were running, Isaiah Mackenzie crossed the line of scrimmage and 0:07:10.400 --> 0:07:13.360 the A four mentioned Tyler Croft was coming over to 0:07:13.520 --> 0:07:17.240 block half in half read. Dad out snuffed it from 0:07:17.280 --> 0:07:20.720 the get and got him down. Mackenzie down in the backfield. 0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:24.480 That was a veteran type play. So he's a guy 0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:27.480 who we have to continue to watch because SAC against 0:07:27.520 --> 0:07:30.680 Miami a big play in the defense an offensive backfield, 0:07:30.680 --> 0:07:34.440 So what is his next steps? But on offensive side 0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:36.160 of the ball, I just want to say one thing 0:07:36.200 --> 0:07:38.600 about Huff is you would assume he'd get more playing time, 0:07:38.680 --> 0:07:41.240 right with Kyle Phillips now out for the season with 0:07:41.280 --> 0:07:43.880 the ankle injury. And that's another young player that was 0:07:43.920 --> 0:07:46.560 an undrafted free agent in two thousand nineteen. He led 0:07:46.560 --> 0:07:49.160 the team in tackles for loss and then he started 0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:53.080 pretty well and then he gets hurt and then yeah, 0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:55.360 and then Bryce Huff to your point, you would assume 0:07:55.400 --> 0:07:58.840 he might be in the mixture. See more snapped. And 0:07:58.880 --> 0:08:01.400 another guy I think we're gonna talk about this on 0:08:01.680 --> 0:08:05.360 practice today this week is that Jabari z Aninga. And 0:08:05.360 --> 0:08:08.120 now I remember that two thousand twenty draft class. So 0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:12.160 Steve McLennan and Tampa, now Quinn and Williams. We're seeing 0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:16.280 um him developed in front of our eyes. He always 0:08:16.280 --> 0:08:20.080 had the natural raw athletic ability. I think that he 0:08:20.280 --> 0:08:23.800 was slowed by injury last year. But quinnin is a 0:08:23.800 --> 0:08:27.480 guy who he was flashing. John Franklin Myers is a 0:08:27.520 --> 0:08:30.400 guy you picked up off of waivers from the Rams. 0:08:30.680 --> 0:08:33.439 He's showing his talent. Bryce hoff starting to come on 0:08:34.040 --> 0:08:37.520 um and then Uh, Jabari z Aninga is a guy 0:08:37.559 --> 0:08:40.640 the Jets really liked. They drafted the four round out 0:08:40.640 --> 0:08:45.400 of Florida and explosive player who is not an edge 0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:47.520 but he's a defensive alignment, So how is he going 0:08:47.559 --> 0:08:49.600 to work into the rotation as well? And then the 0:08:49.640 --> 0:08:53.080 other defensive player to think about is the other Bryce 0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:56.840 is Bryce Hall, because he's in that designated to practice 0:08:56.920 --> 0:09:00.600 window now off of the non football injury list. And 0:09:00.960 --> 0:09:04.240 if he's let's say he's on the same Bless Austin path, 0:09:04.360 --> 0:09:07.400 which is you get activated after week ten, maybe you 0:09:07.440 --> 0:09:09.880 get your feet wet, depending on the situation and the 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:13.160 numbers at corner. I think that's another guy that when 0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:16.040 the Jets drafted Bryce Hall, a lot of fans and 0:09:16.120 --> 0:09:19.600 a lot of pundit's we're thinking, well, that could be 0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:22.199 a guy down the road because he dealt with that 0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:26.160 pretty brutal ankle leg injury at Virginia. But that's this 0:09:26.280 --> 0:09:29.400 was a guy that led the nation in past defenses 0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:31.320 the year before he got hurt. He can find a 0:09:31.320 --> 0:09:33.640 football and the Jets knew it was going to be 0:09:33.679 --> 0:09:36.080 a slow process with him when they drafted him. But 0:09:36.600 --> 0:09:39.160 like you said, hopefully he can get on the field 0:09:39.200 --> 0:09:42.640 here quickly because I'm sure if he can get up 0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:45.360 to speed on the practice field, and I wonder if 0:09:45.360 --> 0:09:48.840 he has a similar path through Denzel Mims, meaning scout 0:09:48.880 --> 0:09:53.040 team first and then get some team reps and let's 0:09:53.080 --> 0:09:56.000 see what you have. But his ball skills, he is 0:09:56.080 --> 0:09:59.040 at natural in terms of finding the football. And you 0:09:59.120 --> 0:10:02.720 mentioned what a productive season he added in Virginia's last 0:10:02.760 --> 0:10:06.760 healthy year in college. So he is a guy who 0:10:06.800 --> 0:10:09.720 you'd like to see out there on field in the 0:10:09.760 --> 0:10:12.200 back half of the season. But sorry to get us 0:10:12.320 --> 0:10:15.480 off track. That's how MIM's you know, range of pores. 0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:17.920 You know, it's like a snowball that turns into the avalanche. 0:10:18.040 --> 0:10:20.400 How about Mims. Uh, he saw a lot of trade 0:10:20.400 --> 0:10:22.720 Avious White. Trade Avious White is a top five corner 0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:25.080 in the league, maybe top three corner in the NFL. 0:10:25.880 --> 0:10:29.560 He had those four receptions, a couple of crossing routes. 0:10:29.679 --> 0:10:32.680 I really thought that one of his most impressive plays 0:10:32.720 --> 0:10:35.080 was taking care of treyde Davis White in the end 0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:38.160 zone on la Michael p Ryans first touchdown in the 0:10:38.240 --> 0:10:43.440 National Football League. Everybody talks about MIM's being explosive in 0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:48.160 and out of his routes, big guy, good catch radius. Um, 0:10:48.240 --> 0:10:50.720 So he performed well in Game one. Yeah, I think 0:10:51.240 --> 0:10:53.520 what stood out to me was what Mim said after 0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:56.480 the game. I interviewed him after the game from MetLife 0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:58.920 Stadium as I was up in my sweet and he 0:10:59.000 --> 0:11:02.520 was outside and to go home. But Denzel Mims said, 0:11:02.720 --> 0:11:04.240 you know, I know I can do a lot more 0:11:04.760 --> 0:11:06.360 and I can do a lot better in the future. 0:11:06.400 --> 0:11:07.840 So I said, well, what do you mean by that? 0:11:08.120 --> 0:11:10.960 And he says, well, my blocking. First off, he said 0:11:11.000 --> 0:11:14.560 that blocking gets him going like mentally and in the 0:11:14.720 --> 0:11:18.240 involved in the game. And hey, I know that all 0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:22.360 NFL fans want to see the four three eight guy 0:11:22.559 --> 0:11:24.960 just like catch and run and just take one seventy 0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:28.400 yards and show off the burners. But Denzel Mims takes 0:11:28.400 --> 0:11:30.440 pride in his blocking. And I think that the La 0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:33.520 Michael p Ryan touchdown there's a great example of that. 0:11:33.920 --> 0:11:36.600 And I think that speaks to who Denzel Mims is 0:11:36.960 --> 0:11:39.079 as a guy. I think he's a little tougher than 0:11:39.120 --> 0:11:41.400 maybe you would think because receivers kind of get that 0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:46.040 diva label, maybe unjustly. Well, yeah, you go back to Baylor. 0:11:46.120 --> 0:11:47.679 You know this. You did a lot of work on 0:11:47.920 --> 0:11:51.880 the previous draft here said. They used to talk about 0:11:52.520 --> 0:11:56.760 the way he approached practice every day and he loves 0:11:57.559 --> 0:12:00.600 being part of the run game. So but Anthony backset 0:12:00.640 --> 0:12:04.920 it after your interview by the way, on Jets over time, Hey, listen, 0:12:04.960 --> 0:12:07.320 that's great that the receiver wants to be a blocker, 0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:10.560 but we need to catching touchdown passes, the catching basses 0:12:10.600 --> 0:12:13.200 down the field. And den deel Mims, to be fair, 0:12:13.240 --> 0:12:16.920 at college was the only n c A a receiver 0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:20.760 with at least eight touchdown castes catches and at least 0:12:21.280 --> 0:12:25.000 three seasons and three and three consecutive seasons. So yeah, 0:12:25.040 --> 0:12:28.880 he got it on inside the red zone. And he 0:12:28.960 --> 0:12:31.320 was asked to run a lot of vertical routes at 0:12:31.360 --> 0:12:35.880 Baylor UM, but the Jets said early on he picked 0:12:35.960 --> 0:12:38.280 up the route tree and he can do a lot 0:12:38.320 --> 0:12:41.120 of different things. So, uh, he's the guy who you 0:12:41.160 --> 0:12:44.120 wouldn't anticipate is going to continue to get better, and 0:12:44.480 --> 0:12:46.840 you love who he's being coached up by. You're not 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:49.199 only shown Jefferson, but you got hines Ward in there 0:12:49.240 --> 0:12:51.600 as well, of course, and hines Ward was very much 0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:53.600 known for his blocking, so I'm sure he'll pick up 0:12:53.640 --> 0:12:55.760 a thing or two learning from him. In terms of 0:12:55.800 --> 0:12:58.480 the rest of the receiving corps, you mentioned jeff Smith, 0:12:58.480 --> 0:13:01.840 I mean he gotta hope that Prescott Powerman is healthy 0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:04.840 because we'll see what the deal is with Jamison Crowder. 0:13:04.880 --> 0:13:07.400 But you're hoping for this upcoming week and the rest 0:13:07.400 --> 0:13:12.280 of the season. You're receiving Corps Powerman, Mims and Crowder. 0:13:12.400 --> 0:13:15.000 And yesterday the Jets had two out of the three. 0:13:15.400 --> 0:13:20.560 Brasen Burrios was starting in place of Crowder. How about 0:13:20.559 --> 0:13:25.600 the third and twenty where is Sam Donald through one 0:13:25.600 --> 0:13:29.000 of one of the most impressive passes of his three 0:13:29.080 --> 0:13:34.160 year career, gets burials in a crazy window for twenty 0:13:34.200 --> 0:13:38.520 two yards. And that was a great example what Sam 0:13:38.559 --> 0:13:40.800 can do from the pocket because I know a lot 0:13:40.840 --> 0:13:44.280 of times we talked about his improvisation skills and what 0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:46.720 he can do when a play breaks down, But here 0:13:46.720 --> 0:13:49.760 he is on the money and a tough situation. Third 0:13:49.600 --> 0:13:53.319 and twenty he finds burials. But you're right Greenis you're 0:13:53.360 --> 0:13:56.760 talking about the Jets and Adam Gates referred to him 0:13:56.800 --> 0:13:59.400 as three dudes. The three dudes. The three dudes has 0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:03.720 yet to play together. And we're at the NFL midway point, 0:14:04.360 --> 0:14:08.400 So Jameson Crowder not in the lineup when Denzel Mims 0:14:08.440 --> 0:14:11.959 back and then Brashot Perriman. He took that big pop 0:14:12.120 --> 0:14:15.760 the sideline. I think that was Jordan Poyer, right player 0:14:15.880 --> 0:14:18.200 or high Yeah, I think it was Micah Hyde. It 0:14:18.360 --> 0:14:22.440 was hide okay, so I don't remember who the safety was. 0:14:22.680 --> 0:14:25.640 It was one of those bank bang plays where damn, 0:14:26.200 --> 0:14:28.040 he really took a shot on the sideline. So the 0:14:28.040 --> 0:14:30.320 concussion protocol. So we have to hope for the best 0:14:30.400 --> 0:14:32.720 with him. Again, we talked about the speed at the 0:14:32.760 --> 0:14:37.400 receiver position, but uh, work in progress because Mims gets 0:14:37.440 --> 0:14:40.360 out there for the first time now, the Perriman is 0:14:40.400 --> 0:14:43.240 dealing with an injury. And every time Crowder has been 0:14:43.280 --> 0:14:45.560 on the field, he's been productive. Burials has done some 0:14:45.640 --> 0:14:49.440 nice things in filling in for him. But the Jets, 0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:53.840 I thought, offensively great plan early and they moved to football. 0:14:53.880 --> 0:14:56.320 They were in good rhythm and what I liked is 0:14:56.440 --> 0:15:01.040 offensive line was blowing the Bills defenders off the ball early. Yeah, 0:15:01.080 --> 0:15:04.080 I think the Jets. It's really a tale of two 0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:07.720 halves for the Jets offense. I mean, on six of 0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:11.760 the team's total yards came in the first half, and 0:15:11.920 --> 0:15:15.040 you saw the offense start to put things together, and 0:15:15.080 --> 0:15:18.760 you hope that the offense can take whatever happened in 0:15:18.800 --> 0:15:21.560 that first half and they could apply it to four 0:15:21.760 --> 0:15:24.640 quarters worth of football throughout the course of the season. 0:15:25.560 --> 0:15:29.560 And on a positive note, Michael p Ryan's stats aren't 0:15:30.080 --> 0:15:32.960 I popping, but he did get his first career touchdown. Yeah, 0:15:33.000 --> 0:15:35.960 And we talked about the run and it's like a 0:15:36.040 --> 0:15:39.480 stretch and he showed his explosion there because I don't 0:15:39.480 --> 0:15:41.520 know if a lot of the guys would have been 0:15:41.600 --> 0:15:43.560 able to get to the edge, and the Jets have 0:15:43.600 --> 0:15:46.160 talked about him being a home run hitter. No, that 0:15:46.240 --> 0:15:50.040 was not a long game per se, but he got 0:15:50.120 --> 0:15:52.400 to the corner where nobody could get to him, No 0:15:52.480 --> 0:15:54.360 Bills defender could get to him. So he showed his 0:15:54.400 --> 0:15:57.280 speed there. And he did have a twenty yard run 0:15:57.840 --> 0:16:01.920 in the first half, blocked up well and he hit it. 0:16:02.280 --> 0:16:05.600 And that's the explosion he can bring to the table. 0:16:05.800 --> 0:16:09.200 Or that's this big playability because I know we're always 0:16:09.200 --> 0:16:12.640 thinking in terms of, hey, chunk plays come in the 0:16:12.680 --> 0:16:14.880 passing game, Well you can get chunk plays in the 0:16:14.960 --> 0:16:17.120 run game as well. And the Michael p Right, I 0:16:17.160 --> 0:16:21.040 think did a really nice job of getting skinny and 0:16:21.120 --> 0:16:25.040 extending the ball over the pylon. From my vantage point, 0:16:26.240 --> 0:16:29.240 I was about the thirty or forty yard line, and 0:16:29.400 --> 0:16:32.040 the Jets were going to the opposite direction, like to 0:16:32.240 --> 0:16:35.320 my left, and he almost like, is he gonna get it? 0:16:35.560 --> 0:16:37.960 I don't know, and then it almost looked like he 0:16:38.080 --> 0:16:40.240 ran out of bounds. And then he did a very 0:16:40.320 --> 0:16:43.520 nice job of he's jumping and extending. He certainly did. 0:16:43.840 --> 0:16:46.760 And that was like a veteran move right there, getting 0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:49.440 it over the pieline and getting into the end zone, 0:16:49.440 --> 0:16:51.680 and the Jets had It's had nothing lead. And this 0:16:51.760 --> 0:16:53.720 was the first time in a long time since Week 0:16:53.840 --> 0:16:57.800 four against the Broncos, where the Green and White gave 0:16:57.880 --> 0:17:01.640 themselves a chance to win in the fourth quarter and 0:17:01.640 --> 0:17:05.560 as small steps right now. And I know fans are 0:17:05.680 --> 0:17:08.800 unhappy and everybody inside the building is unhappy with the 0:17:08.880 --> 0:17:11.520 Jets record, There's no doubt about that. But you do 0:17:11.760 --> 0:17:15.479 have to take things in play by play, watch them 0:17:15.480 --> 0:17:18.760 back correct the mistakes, and the Jets gave themselves a 0:17:18.880 --> 0:17:20.960 chance to win. It would be really something if they 0:17:20.960 --> 0:17:23.640 give themselves a chance to win against the Chiefs, because 0:17:23.640 --> 0:17:26.000 they just faced a Buffalo team that was scuffling the 0:17:26.080 --> 0:17:29.439 last couple of weeks. And I still think they're feeling 0:17:29.480 --> 0:17:33.600 their own way Defensively, you saw the Bills take that 0:17:33.640 --> 0:17:36.199 game over in the second half with a lot of 0:17:36.200 --> 0:17:39.440 their pressure packages, and I thought Sam Donald was right, 0:17:40.720 --> 0:17:43.880 they made adjustments. Now what are we gonna do as 0:17:43.880 --> 0:17:47.760 far as making adjustments as well to counter those adjustments. 0:17:47.800 --> 0:17:52.480 So I like defensively that third down were great. Again, 0:17:53.280 --> 0:17:55.760 the Bills were three of eleven. That was comes on 0:17:55.840 --> 0:17:58.040 the heels of a game against the Miami Dolphins when 0:17:58.040 --> 0:18:00.720 they Miami was just one of nine. So you're getting 0:18:00.760 --> 0:18:04.040 off the field on third down zero five in the 0:18:04.080 --> 0:18:06.760 red zone. I guess the other point of that is 0:18:06.840 --> 0:18:10.000 the Bills controlled the ball throughout that game after the 0:18:10.040 --> 0:18:15.480 first quarter. Yeah, it's very odd because the Bills all 0:18:15.520 --> 0:18:18.320 their eighteen points came off field goals, but they also 0:18:18.400 --> 0:18:22.800 didn't punt. So it's the epitome of bend. But don't break. 0:18:23.119 --> 0:18:24.960 If you give up eighteen, you're gonna have a chance 0:18:25.000 --> 0:18:28.680 to win. Everybody, that's right, I mean, but you're going 0:18:28.720 --> 0:18:33.760 to Kansas City, and shoot, most teams are playing Kansas City. 0:18:33.760 --> 0:18:37.239 You probably got to score and the high twenties at 0:18:37.240 --> 0:18:42.280 a very at the ultimate minimum. Right, You saw the 0:18:42.359 --> 0:18:45.840 Bills Monday Night Football where they said we're gonna play 0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:48.919 small ball. We're gonna keep everything in front of us, 0:18:48.960 --> 0:18:51.679 and they just gassed them on the grounds. Yeah, like 0:18:51.760 --> 0:18:54.640 your poison against Kansas City. It is. It's almost like 0:18:56.119 --> 0:18:59.080 when you when you talk to Coach Gaze on the 0:18:59.119 --> 0:19:01.640 Adam Gay Show about DeAndre Hopkins, You're like, you almost 0:19:01.920 --> 0:19:04.560 you almost know that he's gonna get his but how 0:19:04.640 --> 0:19:07.160 much can you contain him? It's like the same thing 0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:10.280 for the offense though of the Chiefs, right, It's like 0:19:10.640 --> 0:19:14.880 you know they're gonna do something somehow, but how how 0:19:14.960 --> 0:19:17.800 do you want to defend? Do you want to make 0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:19.880 you wanted to be Clyde Edwards, Hilaiir? Do you want 0:19:19.880 --> 0:19:22.800 to be Patrick Mahomes and Tyree Hill and Travis Kelsey 0:19:22.920 --> 0:19:25.800 and all those guys. I think you gotta take the hand, 0:19:26.280 --> 0:19:29.919 take the ball out of his hands. You know. I 0:19:30.000 --> 0:19:32.520 know the Bills got crushed for it because they got 0:19:32.760 --> 0:19:37.320 just they got ripped apart on the ground. But they 0:19:37.359 --> 0:19:39.240 did have a chance to win in the fourth quarter. 0:19:40.320 --> 0:19:44.200 You know, if Tyreek Hill is going over your head, 0:19:44.240 --> 0:19:48.800 that scoreboard's gonna be lightening up like the fourth of July. Yeah, 0:19:49.040 --> 0:19:50.800 and they have a great they have a great pass 0:19:50.840 --> 0:19:56.440 catching tight end two and Kelsey and Hartman and tremendous speed, 0:19:56.600 --> 0:20:00.439 and you know it's just and Andy Reichs play hon ers, 0:20:00.960 --> 0:20:04.840 tremendous yes. And speaking of the Kansas City Chiefs, let's 0:20:04.920 --> 0:20:08.240 check in with Bart Scott for our Victor Knox Swiss 0:20:08.320 --> 0:20:11.280 Army Knife Player of the Game segment. Bart, the Jets 0:20:12.000 --> 0:20:14.480 face the Chiefs in Kansas City. I'm sure you could 0:20:14.520 --> 0:20:16.760 go in a number of different directions, but who is 0:20:16.800 --> 0:20:19.640 your player or what is your matchup to watch Sunday. 0:20:19.960 --> 0:20:22.520 I mean, for me, it's always McKay Beckton because he's 0:20:22.520 --> 0:20:24.639 such a dominant player. He's the most dominant player I 0:20:24.720 --> 0:20:28.720 believe on the Jets. Him matching up against maybe Frank 0:20:28.720 --> 0:20:31.080 Clark or whoever they decided to go over there, it's 0:20:31.080 --> 0:20:33.919 gonna be a show because now that I think that 0:20:33.960 --> 0:20:36.440 they can believe that and confirm what they what they 0:20:36.520 --> 0:20:39.000 always believe that this guy was one of the best 0:20:39.040 --> 0:20:41.479 to have the potential to be a Hall of Fame player, 0:20:41.680 --> 0:20:43.280 and they're gonna put the pressure on him. He can 0:20:43.320 --> 0:20:45.680 take the pressure and he's only getting better. I love 0:20:45.760 --> 0:20:48.760 the the te that they had with the receiver and 0:20:48.840 --> 0:20:51.639 him pulling around and you know, watching everybody that was 0:20:51.680 --> 0:20:54.160 on the train tracks. You know, make a business decision, 0:20:54.760 --> 0:20:56.560 and you gotta lean to him not only in the 0:20:56.640 --> 0:20:58.880 run game, but also in the passing game, giving everybody 0:20:58.880 --> 0:21:00.840 else help because you're starting to get a lot of 0:21:00.840 --> 0:21:04.360 interior pressure, so you can turn the protection, which makes 0:21:04.359 --> 0:21:06.760 it hard to blitz in the middle. But it leaves 0:21:07.080 --> 0:21:09.560 Beckton on an island. I think he's ready to have 0:21:09.720 --> 0:21:11.720 Backton Island, you know, put him up there with some 0:21:11.760 --> 0:21:16.000 of these seriously, to put him up there with some 0:21:16.000 --> 0:21:18.280 of the other greats that were able to have islands. 0:21:18.400 --> 0:21:20.920 And we know what I'm talking about in Derrell Rivas Hey, 0:21:20.960 --> 0:21:25.240 I got Rivas Island here, I got mad Backer Island 0:21:25.320 --> 0:21:29.600 over here, and good minds thinking like I can't believe 0:21:30.119 --> 0:21:34.000
