00:00:13Hello and welcome to Gangs All Here.
00:00:15My name is Ryan Sampson, that's our Jets beat writer Brian Costello,
00:00:17and that's my guy Frankie Vittorini from U-Stadium.
00:00:20Today is Thursday, November 5th.
00:00:21It is Week 9, gents.
00:00:23The Jets are coming off another loss against the Las Vegas Raiders
00:00:26since the last time we all got together on this podcast,
00:00:28and they're facing the Kansas City Chiefs in Kansas City
00:00:31as double-digit dogs on the road.
00:00:34It is a tough matchup.
00:00:35There's a lot to discuss before we get into today's game,
00:00:37but before we get to any of it, I'll start with Kaz, as always.
00:00:41How's it going today, buddy?
00:00:44Ugh, miserable, Ryan, miserable.
00:00:47Any particular reason why, Kaz?
00:00:50So, good day for myself.
00:00:52By the way, I was late five minutes last week, or seven minutes,
00:00:56and I got a bunch of crap for that.
00:00:57But you guys, you come late an hour, an hour, and I don't say anything, see?
00:01:00This wasn't clock management, Frank.
00:01:02This was greater forces than that.
00:01:06My son got his license today.
00:01:08Hey, congrats.
00:01:09Got another driver on the road.
00:01:12So, but, you know, 840 driver's test.
00:01:14I'm like, all right, you get there.
00:01:18Number one, my first issue with the state of New Jersey,
00:01:22boy, this driver's test was not very vigorous, boys.
00:01:25I'm a little, like, concerned about who's getting,
00:01:27just handing a license.
00:01:28Like, I've been working for months with this kid on driving.
00:01:31They basically made him parallel park, do a K-turn.
00:01:33They're like, all right, good.
00:01:34You didn't even make him drive on the road.
00:01:35So, I'm like, okay.
00:01:37So, anyway, so the way this DMV is set up,
00:01:40there's a main DMV building,
00:01:41and then there's a building just for the driver's tests.
00:01:44And so, he went in, he was inside.
00:01:46I had to wait outside.
00:01:48We were there for, like, an hour.
00:01:50And he's inside.
00:01:51I'm waiting, waiting, waiting.
00:01:53So, I text him.
00:01:55I'm like, hey, how's it looking?
00:01:56Because I knew you guys were waiting.
00:01:58And he's like, I think I'm 10 minutes from being done.
00:02:00Like, I'm the next one in line.
00:02:02I got to get my picture taken, sign a form,
00:02:05pay for the license, and we're out.
00:02:06Like, all right, good.
00:02:07All of a sudden, this, like, shrieking alarm goes off.
00:02:11The fire alarm in the building goes off.
00:02:13They make everyone evacuate the building.
00:02:16So, now we're, like, across the street,
00:02:18waiting for the thing.
00:02:19And so, then the woman comes over,
00:02:21and she goes, she grabs my message.
00:02:23She goes, you were first in line, right?
00:02:25Like, you were just about to go.
00:02:26And we're like, yeah.
00:02:27She's like, okay, go to the main building.
00:02:29Just go to the main building,
00:02:30and they'll take care of you.
00:02:32So, we go to the main building.
00:02:33Here he has a number.
00:02:34So, we walk in, and the woman says,
00:02:37just take a seat.
00:02:37They're going to transfer the numbers over here.
00:02:39Okay.
00:02:40Half hour goes by.
00:02:42His number's not called.
00:02:43So, I go up and I go,
00:02:44we don't have that number.
00:02:45That number was closed out an hour ago.
00:02:47I was at the other building.
00:02:48Like, what do you mean?
00:02:50Here's your new number.
00:02:52Go sit.
00:02:53Half hour goes by.
00:02:54I go up.
00:02:54Now, you know, you're telling yourself,
00:02:57don't lose it, right?
00:02:58Like, there's a police officer stationed
00:03:00right next to these people,
00:03:01because you know there are meltdowns
00:03:04at the DMV every single day, right?
00:03:06I get it.
00:03:07So, I'm like, don't lose it.
00:03:08Stay calm.
00:03:09So, she's like, yeah, you're fifth in line.
00:03:11You're fifth in line.
00:03:12Go back and sit down.
00:03:13Okay.
00:03:14Another half hour goes by.
00:03:16I find out that I'm like,
00:03:18please help me.
00:03:19Please.
00:03:20We've been there for three and a half hours
00:03:23at this point.
00:03:24So, finally, they pushed me to the front line.
00:03:28He got it done.
00:03:29We got out of there shortly under four hours
00:03:31at the DMV this morning,
00:03:33but he's got his license.
00:03:35So, that's how my day's gone, Ryan.
00:03:37So, watch out.
00:03:39Dread lightly.
00:03:39Yeah, dread lightly.
00:03:40Exactly.
00:03:42I figured we could talk about, you know,
00:03:44like all the off-season head coaching candidates
00:03:45the Jets are going to go after in Target.
00:03:47No, no, no.
00:03:49Frankie would love that talk, by the way.
00:03:51Oh, please.
00:03:51I'm ready.
00:03:52Let's do it.
00:03:52I will say this about the DMV.
00:03:53It is a special place
00:03:56in terms of just ruining your day
00:03:58and ruining your mood.
00:04:00And I think it's a perfect fantasy football punishment
00:04:03if you finish last in your league.
00:04:04You should make them spin.
00:04:05They will test your patience.
00:04:06The entire day at DMV.
00:04:08It's the worst.
00:04:09But we got a football game to talk about.
00:04:11I don't know how much we're going to talk about this game
00:04:12because it is not going to be pretty, obviously, on Sunday
00:04:16considering Vegas does not favor the Jets in this one.
00:04:19Kaz, I always start with a vibe check.
00:04:21I can't imagine they're very high right now,
00:04:23but what's the vibe check on this team
00:04:25after, again, losing to the Raiders?
00:04:27Yeah, it's not good.
00:04:29The vibes aren't good.
00:04:30The vibes haven't been good the last couple weeks now.
00:04:33You know, I think, yeah,
00:04:36this is the team that needs a win
00:04:38and you're staring at a pretty impossible scenario here.
00:04:41Arrowhead Stadium, the last time the Jets won
00:04:43at Arrowhead Stadium, Aaron Glenn was a starting cornerback
00:04:45for the Jets.
00:04:46So it's been a while.
00:04:49Yeah, 1998 is the last time the Jets won there.
00:04:51Not that they play there that often,
00:04:53but it hasn't been great for them.
00:04:56Remember Herm opened the season in 2005.
00:04:58They got their butts kicked.
00:04:59You might remember that game.
00:05:00You might remember Ryan Fitzpatrick
00:05:02throwing six interceptions there.
00:05:04The last time they were there was during the COVID season,
00:05:08Gase 2020, and they got killed by the Chiefs.
00:05:11So, yeah, it's a team that needs a win
00:05:12and there's not one on the schedule right now.
00:05:14And they know they let one slip away on Sunday.
00:05:17Yeah.
00:05:18Frankie, you know, I hear you,
00:05:21what you've been saying all week
00:05:22and from your reaction to postgame.
00:05:28What is your mentality going into this week, week nine?
00:05:31The Jets seem to have, like,
00:05:33it looks like a lame duck head coach.
00:05:35How are you mentally approaching this as a fan
00:05:39the rest of the season?
00:05:42Yeah, man, these are the situations as a fan
00:05:45that you really don't want to be in
00:05:46because it's tough to want to root for a team
00:05:49that is really going nowhere.
00:05:51And you know the coach is likely not going to be here next year.
00:05:54Um, and you, you know,
00:05:57don't want to root hard against them
00:05:59because it's just not innate in what fandom's about.
00:06:02You're supposed to root for your team,
00:06:03but you also obviously want a higher draft pick.
00:06:07And it looks like there's one quarterback
00:06:09that everyone's got their eye on right now.
00:06:11And that'll change, by the way,
00:06:12or could change in the next couple months
00:06:14in terms of is Drew Mestemaker, that QB1,
00:06:18you know, solidified himself as that guy.
00:06:20As some people are calling him a can't miss too.
00:06:24But yeah, I don't know, right?
00:06:26I don't know.
00:06:27I think right now, I just think the Jets
00:06:29and whomever's there making the shots
00:06:32or calling the shots upstairs at One Jets Drive,
00:06:34I think the best thing to do right now
00:06:37is to look into the future of this team.
00:06:38There's a lot of things that you can look forward to.
00:06:40We know the three first round picks.
00:06:42There's a lot of cap space, you know, over 100 million
00:06:47they're projecting, right, for free agents.
00:06:50So I wouldn't do anything that's going to hurt
00:06:52what this team could be in a year or two right now.
00:06:55If you can trade a player, trade a player.
00:06:57If you're, I don't know, it's tough to say tank,
00:07:01because again, we've been having this conversation here
00:07:03since I started on this show.
00:07:05I know.
00:07:05And like, players don't tank.
00:07:06Like Kazza said, like, you're not purposefully
00:07:09going to miss a block.
00:07:10Oh, miss that block on third down
00:07:12so, you know, we can punt and like, we don't score.
00:07:14So like, I never know how to, you know,
00:07:16gauge how to tank, quote unquote,
00:07:18because it doesn't make sense.
00:07:19But if you can play some young guys,
00:07:22if you could play D'Angelo Pons,
00:07:23if you could play, you know,
00:07:26if you could target Sadiq more
00:07:27than maybe he's ready to be targeted.
00:07:29I'm just saying you can do things right now
00:07:30that develop your young guys,
00:07:33but maybe don't put yourself in the best position
00:07:35to win on that Sunday, per se.
00:07:37So that would be my thought.
00:07:39Like, how do these young guys look?
00:07:40Yeah.
00:07:41There's a lot there, Frankie.
00:07:42And I want to go to Kaz there about this as well.
00:07:46I think a lot of the discourse and talk right now,
00:07:48Kaz, amongst Jets fans and content creators
00:07:50and your writers yourself is,
00:07:52there is some hope, it feels like,
00:07:54even though they're two and six.
00:07:56And the hope is, is that the young talent
00:07:58is starting to develop,
00:08:00especially on the offensive side of the ball.
00:08:02We've seen now six different receivers
00:08:04go for over a hundred yards in a football game
00:08:07for the Jets in this passing attack.
00:08:08We've seen Braylon Allen these last couple of weeks
00:08:11just really look like a number one running back.
00:08:13They're getting Brees Hall,
00:08:14it seems like probably back this week.
00:08:17And they have two young stud tackles
00:08:20that I think who are starting to look better
00:08:22and better again as the season's progressing.
00:08:24Would you agree with that assessment
00:08:26that we are, we are,
00:08:27there's hope because of the draft picks,
00:08:30because of the young talent on this team?
00:08:32Or should we still pump the brakes?
00:08:33There's still a lot of games left
00:08:35and more can be told about this franchise.
00:08:39Well, I'm not sure I understand the question, Ron.
00:08:42I think both are true.
00:08:43I think, I think like, I'm not,
00:08:46there's nine games left in the season.
00:08:48I don't think you're going to like tank mode right now
00:08:50or play the young guys is an interesting like concept.
00:08:54They should be playing D'Angelo Pons anyway,
00:08:57in my opinion.
00:08:58Like the defense, defense has issues.
00:09:03Brownlee committed a bad penalty last week.
00:09:05He's got a coverage issues.
00:09:06Like let's, let's see what Pons can do.
00:09:08There's no one, I don't buy into this thing of like
00:09:10that he's being kept off the field
00:09:12by superior performances right now.
00:09:14So other than him though,
00:09:15I'm not sure exactly who else you want to see a lot of.
00:09:20So I think there's nine games left.
00:09:22You're still trying to win games.
00:09:23Like you have to be, you have to honor that.
00:09:26You have to honor, there's 53 guys in the locker room.
00:09:28There, there, there's guys,
00:09:30they're risking injury every week.
00:09:32I thought what the Jets did at the end of the last season
00:09:34with Brady Cook as a starting quarterback
00:09:36was tough to stomach.
00:09:38If you're, if you were a competitor or like they were,
00:09:41they were, that was tanking.
00:09:43You know, if you, we've ever said,
00:09:44I don't know what tanking looks like.
00:09:45That was tanking.
00:09:46They were playing a quarterback who didn't belong in the NFL.
00:09:50I don't know.
00:09:51Offense to Brady Cook.
00:09:52He was a nice guy, but they, he didn't,
00:09:53wasn't ready to play in the NFL yet.
00:09:55They played him.
00:09:56They were, they, you know, they basically were like,
00:09:58okay, we've been games.
00:10:00I don't know.
00:10:00Glenn can't afford to do that.
00:10:01I know we all think he's gone, but he's not yet.
00:10:04And the Jets are still making evaluations on him.
00:10:07There's still belief in the building that they can go on a run here
00:10:10and turn this around.
00:10:12That's what they have to believe inside that building.
00:10:15So I, I think the conversation about like, oh, do you play cake,
00:10:19cake club, Nick?
00:10:19I've heard that that's for December.
00:10:22Like, I don't think we're having that conversation until the bye week.
00:10:24Maybe really to the bye week.
00:10:26Not after these next two, maybe I was thinking maybe a Buffalo game.
00:10:29You got two cupcakes in, in Los Angeles and Miami coming up.
00:10:33So the first, first, first thing is first is Gino Smith is playing very,
00:10:37very well right now.
00:10:38Completely.
00:10:39Yeah.
00:10:40I don't like, you can't justify, like,
00:10:41how do you look at the Mario Davis and go, Hey, we're going to bench.
00:10:45We're benching Gino Smith, who might set the record,
00:10:49the franchise record for yards in a season passing.
00:10:51We really want to get a look at this kid to see, you know, he might be,
00:10:54he might be a good player two or three years down the road.
00:10:56We want to look at him.
00:10:57Like you can't justify that right now.
00:11:00End of December.
00:11:01Like, you know, or what's the bye week?
00:11:03Is the bye week the second week?
00:11:04The week's after, yeah.
00:11:05Yeah.
00:11:07Yeah.
00:11:07Maybe you can justify a little bit more than,
00:11:09I don't think you can now.
00:11:10I think this is still about winning games for this team.
00:11:13I get, as a fan, you're, you're past it.
00:11:16But I think if you're in that building,
00:11:18you're still trying to win games with everything you can.
00:11:20I get the mentality in the building.
00:11:21I guess my, my retort to that would be is,
00:11:24could there be a possibility of if these next two weeks get really ugly
00:11:27and LaVegas is telling us it's going to be double digit probably again next week against Buffalo.
00:11:32If they lose back-to-back ugly games,
00:11:34could Woody Johnson and Darren Mugee confer to each other and say,
00:11:37look, Aaron Glenn's a dead man walking.
00:11:40This team is not playing good football right now, especially on defense.
00:11:43Do we pull the plug on him and then evaluate everything we just talked about and playing the younger guys?
00:11:51I don't think so.
00:11:52But that being said,
00:11:54and I've said this since the summer when I asked about Aaron Glenn,
00:11:57it's how it looks, right?
00:11:58So like, yeah.
00:11:59So if you, if there's a, there's,
00:12:01there could be a scenario where it's really,
00:12:04really brutal the next two weeks and they do that.
00:12:07But I really,
00:12:07I think he's going to finish the season as the head coach guys.
00:12:10I will be surprised if he doesn't the bi-week might be that one area where I say,
00:12:15okay,
00:12:15if they're going to do something,
00:12:16they would do it during the bi-week because then you have more time for the coaching staff to get
00:12:21ready past that.
00:12:22But I think Aaron will be here till the end of the year.
00:12:25Cause let me just say one quick thing to that.
00:12:27Do you think that's smart though,
00:12:29in your opinion?
00:12:30Like if you were calling the shots,
00:12:31let's just say hypothetically,
00:12:33do you think that's the right?
00:12:34I do.
00:12:35Cause I just,
00:12:35I don't know what the benefit is of fire and Aaron Glenn.
00:12:38And I,
00:12:39I've been against mid-season firing as the NFL.
00:12:42I don't see a point.
00:12:43It just,
00:12:44it doesn't.
00:12:45I just don't,
00:12:46I,
00:12:46other than making fans happy for a little bit and you guys will be happy for a little bit.
00:12:51And then you'll be complaining about whoever,
00:12:53you know,
00:12:53look at Jeff Ulbrich.
00:12:54You loved him as the interim,
00:12:56right?
00:12:56Like you'll be complaining about whoever the interim is.
00:12:58It doesn't really serve a point.
00:13:00It's his defense.
00:13:01You're not going to revamp the defense right now.
00:13:03Like that's not happening.
00:13:05I mean,
00:13:07you know,
00:13:07it's,
00:13:08it's,
00:13:08if your goal is to use more games.
00:13:12Yeah.
00:13:12I'm saying two and eight.
00:13:13I'm saying like at two and eight,
00:13:14what's what purpose does it serve?
00:13:16It would then go like young route.
00:13:18Yeah.
00:13:18Young route.
00:13:19And you would be tanking for that top pick probably.
00:13:21Okay.
00:13:21Well,
00:13:22tell me what the young route looks like.
00:13:24It's the angel ponds.
00:13:26It's heavy dosage,
00:13:27more of Omar Cooper and Kenyon city getting fed in the,
00:13:30in the passing attack.
00:13:31You might say you're,
00:13:32you're benching Garrett Wilson,
00:13:34not benching Garrett Wilson,
00:13:36but I mean,
00:13:36they don't,
00:13:37it's inconsistent.
00:13:38Reduce his role.
00:13:40I don't know.
00:13:41I don't know what that would look like.
00:13:42I just,
00:13:43I think it's,
00:13:43it would,
00:13:44it would look like that.
00:13:45No,
00:13:46you were,
00:13:46no,
00:13:46you're right.
00:13:48Yeah.
00:13:49Yeah.
00:13:49It would.
00:13:49I think the young thing sounds better than it actually would be in
00:13:52reality.
00:13:53Guys.
00:13:53I think we know Omar Cooper is a pretty good player right now.
00:13:55I think the angel ponds is a different thing.
00:13:58Like I don't know what's going on with him.
00:13:59I'll give you that.
00:14:00I think right now he should be playing right now.
00:14:02And it has nothing to do with going younger.
00:14:05They do the second round pick on him.
00:14:06I want to see if he can play that.
00:14:08That's my thing.
00:14:08But I think it sounds good to go,
00:14:10say,
00:14:11let's go younger.
00:14:12And if the jets had a,
00:14:15a quarterback that was a first or second round pick,
00:14:17and you want to take a look at him.
00:14:18I'd understand that.
00:14:19I just don't think the jets have that situation.
00:14:21I think you feel good about Cooper already.
00:14:23Sadiq.
00:14:24Yeah.
00:14:24Yeah.
00:14:24They should target Sadiq a little bit more.
00:14:26I don't think you have to do that.
00:14:27Like at the expense of others.
00:14:29I think he should be part of the game plan right now.
00:14:32I don't think there's a lot of young guys that you have to get a feel for.
00:14:35So I just don't think it serves a point.
00:14:38And they could tell,
00:14:40I mean,
00:14:40they could tell Aaron glad,
00:14:41Hey,
00:14:42we're,
00:14:42you know,
00:14:43we're,
00:14:44we want to see this.
00:14:45Like Mouji can say,
00:14:46Hey,
00:14:46I want to be a player.
00:14:47D'Angelo Ponds.
00:14:47Well,
00:14:47I don't know how that will work.
00:14:49I think what he would back Mouji right now,
00:14:51but I don't know how that would work in terms of internal politics.
00:14:53But I mean,
00:14:54with,
00:14:55with Gates,
00:14:57what about Seth?
00:14:58Ryan having a little bit more say in like the play calling.
00:15:01I'm saying like going in like a direction where you're Duker,
00:15:04have him come in and call some plays on defense.
00:15:06I know that sounds crazy,
00:15:07but that's also where I'm going with this whole younger mentality.
00:15:10Like have these younger coaches sort of take the reins of both sides and see
00:15:14if you maybe have something next year,
00:15:16not saying as an OCDC per se,
00:15:18but you know,
00:15:19stay in their roles potentially.
00:15:20I don't know.
00:15:21I just,
00:15:23I,
00:15:24I,
00:15:25I think it's hard for me to envision coaches staying on this staff.
00:15:30If they fire.
00:15:31So Duker is an Aaron Glenn guy,
00:15:33especially Seth Ryan,
00:15:34maybe,
00:15:35you know,
00:15:36cause he has his,
00:15:36he has ties for the organization.
00:15:38So maybe they find her,
00:15:39they say they want him to stay,
00:15:41but I don't know.
00:15:42I'm like the,
00:15:43the offensive wasn't the problem last week.
00:15:46I know it's been a problem before,
00:15:47but the,
00:15:48the offensive was,
00:15:50I mean,
00:15:50I just,
00:15:52as tough as it is,
00:15:53I think you,
00:15:53you just kind of ride it out,
00:15:55have to play the season out and,
00:15:57and just,
00:15:58just deal with it.
00:15:58And yeah,
00:15:59I think they can lean on Glenn if it's bad.
00:16:01Like if you,
00:16:02Hey,
00:16:02we want to,
00:16:03if D'Angelo Ponds still isn't playing,
00:16:04I'm like,
00:16:04Hey,
00:16:04we want to see D'Angelo Ponds or if you want to see Malachi Moore or like,
00:16:07you know,
00:16:08something like that,
00:16:09they could do that.
00:16:09If they did that with Gase,
00:16:11I remember in 2020,
00:16:12there was,
00:16:13there was pushes to play players down the stretch to see different guys,
00:16:17but I don't think there's a ton right now that you're doing.
00:16:21And again,
00:16:21this is a conversation for me that happens in December.
00:16:26It's just nine,
00:16:28nine weeks is a long,
00:16:29that's a long time guys.
00:16:31Right.
00:16:31It's a long time.
00:16:32And I just,
00:16:33I don't think you do that to the players.
00:16:34For the record,
00:16:35I agree with you a hundred percent on what their approach is going to be and
00:16:38what it should be.
00:16:39I think it's just,
00:16:40it's worth the conversation to have,
00:16:41because that is what I feel like a lot of this is going to be eventually,
00:16:45like you said,
00:16:46happening later in this year,
00:16:47because they are,
00:16:49you're dealing with a lame duck head coach right now,
00:16:51who just is trying to try and win it,
00:16:54win a football game.
00:16:55I understand he's keeping him in these games for the most part.
00:16:59I have my doubts on how these next two weeks are going to go against the,
00:17:02the cream of the crop and the Kansas city and Buffalo to premier AFC teams.
00:17:06If they actually compete and lose by one score,
00:17:09maybe like 10 points in some of these games.
00:17:12All right.
00:17:12That that's better.
00:17:14But I,
00:17:14I,
00:17:15there's not much to take out from the,
00:17:16from this team besides the young guys that we just mentioned and what this
00:17:20offense can build with those,
00:17:22the future quarterback you want on to be,
00:17:24to be on this team.
00:17:26Cause Ryan,
00:17:27one quick thing,
00:17:28right?
00:17:28Just,
00:17:28just last thing on that cause there is suspicion amongst the fan base that the
00:17:33more time you do give Aaron Glenn,
00:17:36these nine games,
00:17:36maybe he rolls off a few wins and what he convinces himself to bring him back next
00:17:41year.
00:17:41I'm just saying there's fear.
00:17:43I don't think that's offensive.
00:17:45I don't think it's done.
00:17:46I don't think what he's decided.
00:17:47I don't think what he's decided anything.
00:17:49Yep.
00:17:49No,
00:17:49yeah.
00:17:50I think he,
00:17:50I don't think it's,
00:17:51I don't think it's two wins though.
00:17:53Frankie,
00:17:53like I think if they're four,
00:17:54it's our team.
00:17:55He's odd,
00:17:55but yeah,
00:17:56if he finds a way to win eight of the next nine games,
00:18:01he's pulling back.
00:18:04Wait,
00:18:04what's that LeBron?
00:18:05You'll get up there.
00:18:06I mean,
00:18:07it's a few for the Mets.
00:18:09We've had this conversation.
00:18:10We've had this conversation.
00:18:12I feel like every week,
00:18:13three or four,
00:18:14these next four games are important.
00:18:16Like I know I look in real,
00:18:19in all reality,
00:18:20the chargers and dolphins games should be winnable for the jets.
00:18:24But the way this coach and this coaching staff have mismanaged games and not been able to get this team
00:18:29over the hump to win these games.
00:18:30I'm going to believe you're going to lose those games going forward.
00:18:33And they should lose those games because that's what's better for the future of this franchise to get the quarterback
00:18:37they need for the future.
00:18:38But that's another discussion for another day.
00:18:41We've discussed it.
00:18:42I agree.
00:18:42They're not going to,
00:18:43they're not going to tank purposely.
00:18:44They're not going to fire the coach mid season.
00:18:46They're going to give them every chance with the full roster and bevy of players.
00:18:49And speaking of bevy of players and roster that they have here,
00:18:52they're,
00:18:53they're going to be down.
00:18:54Garrett Wilson,
00:18:54it sounds like cause he wasn't out there again today for practice.
00:18:57He's in concussion protocol.
00:18:58Is it safe to assume Garrett will not be strapped up this week?
00:19:03It feels that way.
00:19:04Right.
00:19:04I think we'll,
00:19:04you know,
00:19:05we'll know for sure tomorrow,
00:19:06but it feels that way.
00:19:07And the way the concussion protocol works too,
00:19:10you kind of have to be out there for a day with a non-contact Jersey and then you're clear
00:19:14the next day.
00:19:15So he's not,
00:19:15so time is running out on that.
00:19:17I think so.
00:19:18I think it's probably a safe bet.
00:19:20He's not playing Sunday.
00:19:22And then the return of Brees Hall.
00:19:24It sounds like,
00:19:24you know,
00:19:25he's,
00:19:25he's a limited participant again.
00:19:28He's been limited now for a couple of weeks.
00:19:30They didn't play in last week against the Raiders.
00:19:32We heard Glenn say they're trying to slow roll it and make sure he's a hundred percent healthy.
00:19:36However,
00:19:37I have to ask you again,
00:19:39would they be holding him back potentially for a trade Sunday?
00:19:42If,
00:19:43if he's not active,
00:19:43like what's your read on that situation?
00:19:46Yeah,
00:19:46I don't think they're doing that right.
00:19:48I think,
00:19:49I think they have slow played this.
00:19:51I think part of it is Braylon Allen,
00:19:53you know,
00:19:53has been doing playing well.
00:19:55So they haven't been rushing Brees to get back.
00:19:57I'm curious to see where we're recording this.
00:19:59You know,
00:20:00Thursday afternoon,
00:20:01the injury report will come out in a few hours.
00:20:03I'm curious to see if he's a full practice participant today on Thursday.
00:20:07I think he needs to have a full practice either today or tomorrow to be cleared.
00:20:10But Glenn said it's trending in the right direction Wednesday.
00:20:14So I think he's going to play this week.
00:20:16That's what I believe too.
00:20:18He's scheduled to speak with the media in a little while today.
00:20:20I'm not out there today in foreign park.
00:20:22Cause I was with my son.
00:20:24Um,
00:20:25but you know,
00:20:26that's also a sign that he's going to talk to the media.
00:20:28They think he's going to play.
00:20:29So I would expect to see Brees this week.
00:20:32The terms of a trade from everything.
00:20:34When I've talked to you guys that have to be clear,
00:20:37people that have talked to the jets,
00:20:38right?
00:20:39It's not the jet saying this,
00:20:40but people tell the death.
00:20:41They are not interested in making trades right now.
00:20:44Uh,
00:20:45they like what they have.
00:20:46They're not,
00:20:47they don't feel like they need more draft capital.
00:20:49Like they feel like they're in a good position right now.
00:20:51That being said,
00:20:52I think if,
00:20:53you know,
00:20:53if someone offered a second round pick for Brees,
00:20:57would,
00:20:57would Mugi do it?
00:20:58I would think he would think about it,
00:20:59you know,
00:21:00but I think you'd have to get an offer that would blow him away to,
00:21:03to,
00:21:04to move Brees.
00:21:05I think they're content to go with Brees and Braylon as a combination here,
00:21:09which is going to be interesting to watch.
00:21:11And we'll get into that discussion about the Brees Braylon thing,
00:21:13because we heard Frank Reich talk today and we'll get into those comments a
00:21:16little bit later in this episode.
00:21:17But,
00:21:17um,
00:21:18with the return of him,
00:21:19you have Brees.
00:21:20We also,
00:21:21there's other injury report here.
00:21:22Harrison Phillips didn't look like he was participating in practice today,
00:21:25according to Rich Cimini,
00:21:26who was there.
00:21:27Um,
00:21:28so I would,
00:21:29would it be safe to say he's not going to be suiting up again this week or
00:21:32suiting up this week?
00:21:33Harrison's a little trickier.
00:21:34Harrison's tricky,
00:21:35right?
00:21:36He looked really,
00:21:37really hurt after the game.
00:21:38Uh,
00:21:39he,
00:21:39he got x-rays.
00:21:40He was in,
00:21:40he was walking very slowly,
00:21:44but Harrison is a really tough guy.
00:21:46I remember he played through a lot last season at the end of the year.
00:21:49If you remember,
00:21:49he was pretty banged out and he kept playing.
00:21:51It's also a position,
00:21:53right?
00:21:54That you don't really need to practice to be like,
00:21:57there's not going to be specific game plan stuff for the defensive tackle this
00:22:00week that he's not going to be able to do if he didn't practice.
00:22:03So Harrison Phillips is one guy to me,
00:22:05even if he doesn't practice,
00:22:06he could,
00:22:06he could end up playing.
00:22:07So I think that that's going to be an interesting one to watch.
00:22:10David Bailey,
00:22:11uh,
00:22:11who missed last week against the Raiders looks like he was participating today.
00:22:15Uh,
00:22:16the jets defense clearly needs him,
00:22:18especially for the pass rush.
00:22:19Would you expect him to suit up?
00:22:21Yeah,
00:22:22I expect Bailey to be back again.
00:22:24This is,
00:22:24we'll know,
00:22:25we'll see more how much of a participant he was today and then tomorrow.
00:22:28But I think,
00:22:29I think it seemed like they were hopeful last week about Bailey and then he
00:22:33didn't really come through Friday very well.
00:22:35And so they,
00:22:35they,
00:22:35they shut him down.
00:22:36So I think there'll be hopeful he can play this week.
00:22:39All right.
00:22:40So let's get into the possibility.
00:22:41If Garrett Wilson is not playing,
00:22:43how does this target share and passing game work,
00:22:47uh,
00:22:47in terms of divvying it up?
00:22:49Cause we've been begging and pleading for Garrett to get targets.
00:22:52He did this past week.
00:22:54Uh,
00:22:55you know,
00:22:55Frankie,
00:22:55I'll start with you on this one.
00:22:57How would you expect Frank Reich to dial up this offense?
00:22:59If Garrett Wilson's not out there?
00:23:02Listen,
00:23:02and I think this is like the kind of game that Braylon Allen could really
00:23:05take over and actually take over because we've been seeing a common trend
00:23:09with Braylon Allen,
00:23:10where he comes out hot in the first half and gets fed a ton.
00:23:13And then he sort of,
00:23:14you know,
00:23:15flares out come the second half.
00:23:17Um,
00:23:17that's also due to the jets being down at halftime.
00:23:20So obviously when you're down,
00:23:21you're looking to throw the ball in the second half,
00:23:23but I think this is a Braylon Allen game.
00:23:25I really do.
00:23:26I think it has to be when you look at all the metrics too,
00:23:29and you look at Kansas city,
00:23:30they're not the best team against the run.
00:23:32You want to slow the game down as much as you can.
00:23:35The last thing you want to do is get into,
00:23:37uh,
00:23:37a back and forth with Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reed.
00:23:40So it's gotta be a Braylon Allen day.
00:23:42I'm looking at Ryan 27,
00:23:4428,
00:23:4530 carries.
00:23:46We said it on the show last week or the post game show.
00:23:49We mentioned how seven yards of carry I said to you was too high.
00:23:53And you're like,
00:23:53what the hell are you talking about?
00:23:54I'm like,
00:23:54it should be lower because they should have gave him more carries.
00:23:57He had 21 carries.
00:23:58He should have had 30.
00:24:00And that's what I want to see from this jets team.
00:24:03I don't think I'm in toe to toe with my homes.
00:24:05And just cause you're passing offense has looked like it has the last
00:24:07couple of weeks or throughout most of the year.
00:24:09I don't think that's the right strategy here.
00:24:11So right without Garrett Wilson and cause Braylon Allen,
00:24:15baby.
00:24:16See if you can get him at 180 plus yards.
00:24:18He's averaging five and a half a pop,
00:24:20even more.
00:24:20He's proven that he could do it.
00:24:22The jets offensive line starting to kind of come together too.
00:24:26It seems like they're starting to move bodies and Kansas city up front.
00:24:29They're,
00:24:29they're better at getting to the quarterback.
00:24:31And then they're a little bit finesse defensive,
00:24:34you know,
00:24:34lineman more than they are big bodies up front.
00:24:37So take advantage of it.
00:24:38Well,
00:24:39that's not the passing game that I'd asked you about cause I'll ask you
00:24:42about the targets.
00:24:43Where do you think they go?
00:24:44If Garrett Wilson's not in the game,
00:24:46I sideswiped that clearly.
00:24:48Yeah.
00:24:49I think it's a heavy Cooper Mitchell game right now.
00:24:53Which way does that go?
00:24:55I'm not sure who,
00:24:55you know,
00:24:56who has 10 catches,
00:24:57who has eight catches.
00:24:58I don't know,
00:24:58but yeah,
00:24:59I think you're feeding Omar Cooper and 80 Mitchell.
00:25:01Obviously they both had big games in recent weeks.
00:25:05If you could get them both going now,
00:25:07you're now you're cooking with something.
00:25:09Right.
00:25:09But I would think that's where you're that those guys will be featured in
00:25:14this game run.
00:25:14And then,
00:25:15and maybe you figure out a way to get Sadiq more involved too.
00:25:18You'd like to see that,
00:25:19you know,
00:25:19and you know,
00:25:21maybe the,
00:25:21I clearly last week they were forcing it to Garrett early.
00:25:24Right.
00:25:25So maybe with Garrett,
00:25:26not on the field,
00:25:28Frank Reich and Gino don't feel that pressure that they have to get the
00:25:31ball to,
00:25:31to Garrett so much.
00:25:33And maybe they spread it around a little bit more.
00:25:34I would think you'd have a lot of guys catching passes in this game.
00:25:38Yeah.
00:25:38One thing cause I will say too,
00:25:40is,
00:25:40is I think,
00:25:41you know,
00:25:41something that was really successful in the run game,
00:25:44but also you could do this out of the past game a lot.
00:25:46And a lot of the explosives came out of 12 personnel when they had two
00:25:49tight ends on the field.
00:25:50It feels like if you can have Sadiq and Taylor on the field at the same
00:25:53time.
00:25:54And if you're not rolling with Garrett Wilson,
00:25:55it's Cooper and Adonai Mitchell.
00:25:57Omar Cooper wasn't just like a slot receiver.
00:26:01Number three option on Indiana.
00:26:02We,
00:26:03I am curious if he can take over the rain,
00:26:06range from Garrett this week and be a real downfield threat for the jets
00:26:10and expand his role even further.
00:26:12Or like,
00:26:13would you agree that they've,
00:26:14they've primarily been using him underneath and,
00:26:17and Gino's been using it as,
00:26:18as his escape on third down when he can.
00:26:22Oh,
00:26:22well,
00:26:22yeah,
00:26:22he's had a couple of big ones,
00:26:23right.
00:26:25Against Miami,
00:26:25he had a couple of big ones.
00:26:29So I,
00:26:30I'm curious,
00:26:31I'm curious to see more of Cooper.
00:26:33I just want to see more and more of what he can do.
00:26:35I don't have a good feel yet,
00:26:36honestly,
00:26:36of everything he can do.
00:26:38And I want to see that.
00:26:39Um,
00:26:40and I do think,
00:26:40yeah,
00:26:41the silver lining of no Garrett,
00:26:43like I said,
00:26:43is maybe there's some pressure off of Gino to get him the ball and they can
00:26:46spread around.
00:26:47I think guys like you watch last week and what the Raiders can do with
00:26:52Bowers and mayor.
00:26:53And you're like,
00:26:53man,
00:26:55like they,
00:26:55those guys are matchup nightmares.
00:26:57Like can,
00:26:58can they,
00:26:59I don't think,
00:27:01I don't think anyone on the jets is in the caliber of Bowers.
00:27:05Um,
00:27:05but can they,
00:27:06can they,
00:27:06can they get Taylor and Sadiq in somewhat of a way similar to that,
00:27:11where you're just creating matchup nightmares,
00:27:13especially in the red zone.
00:27:14Like I was laughing,
00:27:15like you're in the red zone.
00:27:16Like I know where the ball's going.
00:27:19Like I thought of that every time.
00:27:21Like he's just,
00:27:22and like,
00:27:22you know,
00:27:23Brownlee,
00:27:24God bless him.
00:27:25That first touchdown,
00:27:25he was in good coverage.
00:27:27There's nothing he could do.
00:27:28It was nothing he could do there.
00:27:30So,
00:27:30you know,
00:27:31uh,
00:27:31can you,
00:27:31can you get that going?
00:27:33Um,
00:27:34you know,
00:27:34that's another aspect with Sadiq and Taylor.
00:27:36You'd like to see them both more involved,
00:27:38uh,
00:27:39at the same time.
00:27:40I feel like they've had each had their moments.
00:27:42Yeah.
00:27:43I mean,
00:27:43in the jets offensive side of the ball too,
00:27:46in the red zone,
00:27:46two of six,
00:27:47just like their record currently.
00:27:49Um,
00:27:52how,
00:27:52how do they correct this?
00:27:55I mean,
00:27:55if Reese is coming back,
00:27:56we'll get into the balance between him and Braylon,
00:27:58but like,
00:27:59how do they correct their red zone troubles right now?
00:28:02Cause.
00:28:03So I thought last week,
00:28:05the play column was better in the red zone than it was,
00:28:08uh,
00:28:09prior.
00:28:09Like I didn't,
00:28:10I didn't have issues.
00:28:11There was no Andrew Beck handoff at the goal line.
00:28:13Um,
00:28:13I've kind of put this one on Aaron Glenn a little bit more.
00:28:16I wouldn't have kicked the field goal on the first drive.
00:28:20You know,
00:28:20you like,
00:28:20they,
00:28:20they just were like,
00:28:21they rolled down the field and you're on the three yard line.
00:28:25Let's go for it.
00:28:26Again.
00:28:26I said this,
00:28:27like when you guys were asking about like the quarterback sneak,
00:28:29I think the last week at the one,
00:28:30like tight ends,
00:28:32tight ends,
00:28:32tight ends.
00:28:33We saw it with the Raiders,
00:28:34like a play action pass to the tight end.
00:28:38I feel like it works every time in the,
00:28:39down the goal line.
00:28:40So I put that in Glenn.
00:28:42Then the second one was fourth.
00:28:44It was listed as fourth and two officially.
00:28:45He said it was fourth and three at the 17 still though.
00:28:48I'm going for it there.
00:28:49So I think the red zone numbers may have looked different.
00:28:52If Glenn had been a little more aggressive,
00:28:55uh,
00:28:55maybe you're four or six then.
00:28:57And I,
00:28:57that that's,
00:28:58that's something you can live with.
00:29:00I thought the play calling was better.
00:29:01I really did down in the red zone.
00:29:04I thought they had chances this game and,
00:29:06um,
00:29:07you know,
00:29:08they just,
00:29:08just couldn't quite get it done.
00:29:10Totally agree.
00:29:11Can I throw a little tidbit in there just about the red zone really quick.
00:29:13I kind of dove into this a little bit.
00:29:15Gino Smith is notoriously not the best or most efficient red zone quarterback.
00:29:21Why?
00:29:22Takes a lot of sacks.
00:29:23He's a smaller build,
00:29:25has smaller hands,
00:29:27doesn't always see over the top.
00:29:28And he tends to hold onto the ball too long.
00:29:31And also his scramble abilities always been a bit overrated.
00:29:35He's actually just a very traditional kind of pocket passer,
00:29:39especially at this point in his career.
00:29:41So you're getting nothing there,
00:29:43right?
00:29:43It's not like what cause you can't run a read option with the guy.
00:29:45You're not going to run an RPO.
00:29:47There is no threat of him running.
00:29:48He holds onto the ball too long.
00:29:50You take a sack in the red zone.
00:29:52You're done.
00:29:52The drive's over.
00:29:53You're not scoring a touchdown.
00:29:54So I mean,
00:29:55like we're seeing that with Gino and traditionally,
00:29:58I mean,
00:29:59if you go through his time,
00:30:00even in Seattle cause he had that one year.
00:30:02We talk about,
00:30:03I have it up right here,
00:30:044,320 yards.
00:30:06He threw for 70% completion,
00:30:08but he only had 21 passing touchdowns.
00:30:10That's a low number considering the yardage.
00:30:13So Gino's always traditionally been more of a high volume passing guy
00:30:17yardage below in terms of touchdowns.
00:30:20He's been like that his whole career.
00:30:23And,
00:30:23and it's the one thing I will say too about the red zone for,
00:30:27for you guys is Gino has taken his shots into the end zone.
00:30:30Even on felt like early on in those red zone opportunities and drives,
00:30:34I would like them to work like getting some more yardage.
00:30:38So it's closer situations,
00:30:39which again is not something that the jets are strength right now.
00:30:42And I wonder like,
00:30:44could they develop just a little bit,
00:30:46like not so much aggressive into the end zone.
00:30:49I don't know.
00:30:50Cause maybe we're being too nitpicky just because of how bad they've been.
00:30:53And they are the worst team in the red zone and converting for touchdowns.
00:30:56So is it fair to critique them that way?
00:31:00Yeah.
00:31:00Yeah.
00:31:01I think so.
00:31:01And I'll point out to you,
00:31:02the chiefs are third in red zone defense.
00:31:05So this is going to be,
00:31:06they're going to be tough,
00:31:07tough down there.
00:31:10Yeah.
00:31:10I mean,
00:31:10clearly there's,
00:31:11there's,
00:31:12there's the biggest issue offensively right now is trying to figure out that
00:31:15what's what's going on in the red zone.
00:31:17But again,
00:31:18I thought last week it was better.
00:31:19I thought I liked the play calling a lot better.
00:31:21I think Glenn kind of,
00:31:23you know,
00:31:23was a little too conservative there early in the game.
00:31:26I completely agree.
00:31:27Completely agree.
00:31:27All right.
00:31:28So let's dive into now the running back room with breeze coming back.
00:31:32Cause we've heard that's,
00:31:34you know,
00:31:34Frank Reich today,
00:31:35he talked about it and he said that,
00:31:37and I want to make sure I say this quote exactly right.
00:31:39Cause I wrote it down.
00:31:40He says,
00:31:41it's a great problem to have.
00:31:43You got two number one backs.
00:31:44Brees is obviously the bell cow.
00:31:46He's our guy,
00:31:47but it'll be a mix.
00:31:49And as far as hot hand,
00:31:51not hot hand.
00:31:51I think that's always an in-game feel thing.
00:31:56It's the storyline.
00:31:57We've been looking forward to now for a couple of weeks since breeze started,
00:32:00you know,
00:32:00getting back on the practice field with the way Braille and Allen's played.
00:32:03And some of those defenses are not good that he's faced these last couple of
00:32:07weeks.
00:32:07He's facing a much better chiefs defense.
00:32:10How does Frank Reich divvy up the carries this week?
00:32:13Cause.
00:32:14Yeah.
00:32:15That's the question,
00:32:15right?
00:32:16That's the question.
00:32:16I mean,
00:32:19I,
00:32:19I'd still be riding Braylon pretty hard,
00:32:21but I can call him breeze,
00:32:24the bell cow.
00:32:25Right.
00:32:26Makes you open your eyes.
00:32:27And I think they're going to be worried about breeze's feelings.
00:32:32So I think they're going to be managing that.
00:32:35It will not shock me.
00:32:37If Ryan,
00:32:38when we talk on Monday,
00:32:39we're going,
00:32:41how,
00:32:41how do you only get Braylon Alley seven carries in the game?
00:32:46It will not shock me if that happens,
00:32:49you know?
00:32:50So it wouldn't be me either.
00:32:52I,
00:32:53I think it's an interesting,
00:32:54I mean,
00:32:55I think I'd almost treat breeze as a third.
00:32:57Down back.
00:32:58If I was Frank Reich,
00:33:00but I don't think they're actually going to do that.
00:33:02So it's going to be fascinating to watch.
00:33:05Frankie.
00:33:06We all know that you're a,
00:33:08your preference is Braylon Allen on the field as,
00:33:10as a running back.
00:33:12Um,
00:33:13but there was noticeable terms of,
00:33:16like I said,
00:33:16personnel,
00:33:17when they were trying to run the ball down the Raiders throat,
00:33:19it was 12 and 13 personnel,
00:33:21which Alani woods,
00:33:22who looked awesome,
00:33:23uh,
00:33:23on the film and,
00:33:24and blocking,
00:33:25especially run blocking.
00:33:26So is there a way though,
00:33:28for Frank Reich to still use that 12 and 13 heavy tight end personnel,
00:33:33even with breeze hall back there.
00:33:34And can he still be able to get some running lanes,
00:33:38just like Braylon did and take advantage of them?
00:33:41Right.
00:33:42I don't know.
00:33:42That's the million dollar question literally.
00:33:44And that'll justify whether or not you want to keep priest hall here for the
00:33:49rest of the season or next year,
00:33:50probably have a new OC next year,
00:33:52but even so can they coexist on paper?
00:33:56They should be able to coexist thunder and lightning,
00:33:58David Montgomery,
00:34:00Jameer Gibbs,
00:34:01Alvin Kamara,
00:34:02Mark Ingram.
00:34:02Like you can do some stuff where you could use both those guys,
00:34:05but you know,
00:34:06Kamara was getting schemed up by Sean Payton.
00:34:09Gibbs was getting schemed up by Ben Johnson.
00:34:12And now they have,
00:34:13um,
00:34:14this,
00:34:14the,
00:34:14their new OC there.
00:34:16That's a great job.
00:34:17Yeah.
00:34:18He's doing it.
00:34:19He's great.
00:34:19He's doing a great job there.
00:34:20So you need a kind of forward thinking mind to be able to use those guys in
00:34:25space.
00:34:25You even look at like things that,
00:34:26uh,
00:34:27McVay has done with his backs.
00:34:29He's able to utilize both of them or Shanahan with CMC.
00:34:33So it's always interesting to look at the,
00:34:36the prospect of a guy like breeze hall because extremely high ceiling,
00:34:40but a very low floor,
00:34:41I think for this team's sake.
00:34:44And if,
00:34:45uh,
00:34:45even moving forward,
00:34:46I just think Braylon Allen just makes more sense.
00:34:48And I think Braylon Allen has an element to his game that breeze just
00:34:51doesn't.
00:34:52And I don't think he'll ever have.
00:34:53And that's just the ability within the tackle box to read feel and his
00:34:58patience.
00:34:59I got flashbacks last game,
00:35:01right?
00:35:02Of,
00:35:02and I hate using that guy's name,
00:35:04but I'm going to use it.
00:35:05Le'Veon bell,
00:35:06right?
00:35:07When Le'Veon bell would do these jump stops and just look and just have
00:35:10patience and wait for his blockers.
00:35:12Braylon doesn't do that.
00:35:14Braylon does.
00:35:14Braylon's also got the strength and the speed to make you really pay for
00:35:18it also.
00:35:19So I want Braylon Allen.
00:35:21Like you asked first question,
00:35:23what do you,
00:35:24who's your number one option?
00:35:25If Garrett's not playing,
00:35:27it's not a receiver,
00:35:27it's him.
00:35:28And if what cause says happens,
00:35:30I am going to flip out next week.
00:35:32I'll flip out on the post game.
00:35:34You cannot give Braylon Allen seven,
00:35:3710 carries and have breeze,
00:35:38the bell cow.
00:35:39When has breeze ever been a bell cow?
00:35:41Anyway,
00:35:41you saw the numbers Braylon Allen's out yardage him on the ground in these
00:35:46last five games and breezes sniffed in seven,
00:35:49eight games.
00:35:49Seriously.
00:35:50There's got to be accountability,
00:35:51man.
00:35:52We paid this guy a good amount of money.
00:35:53Probably doesn't fit here.
00:35:55I don't think he likes being here either.
00:35:56If you want my honest opinion,
00:35:57that's just a person on person read.
00:36:00Not that I know him personally,
00:36:01but just doesn't seem like he's happy here.
00:36:04Well,
00:36:04would you be happy with all the losing that's going on right now?
00:36:07No,
00:36:07I wouldn't.
00:36:08And he's been a part of it.
00:36:09With on this offense too,
00:36:11but yeah,
00:36:13to what cause is saying,
00:36:14they called him the Frank Reich.
00:36:15The OC is calling him the bell cow and they did give him a huge three
00:36:18year,
00:36:18$43.5 million contract cause.
00:36:20So give it to me cause on Sunday.
00:36:23If you're Aaron Glenn,
00:36:24put,
00:36:24I'm putting you in that situation.
00:36:26You're the head coach.
00:36:27I wish cause was Aaron Glenn.
00:36:29No,
00:36:30I would trust him more.
00:36:32What's the carry count.
00:36:33You're telling Frank Reich on Sunday.
00:36:38Like I said,
00:36:39if it's me,
00:36:40this is the Braylon Allen show and Brice Hall is the third down back right
00:36:44now until,
00:36:45until I see otherwise until Braylon gets stopped.
00:36:48And then maybe I try to work Brice in more,
00:36:49but,
00:36:51but I guys like,
00:36:52that's a tough,
00:36:53that's a tough one.
00:36:55That's Brice.
00:36:55I don't think Brice will handle that.
00:36:57Well,
00:36:58just knowing Brice a little bit.
00:37:00So I,
00:37:02I think it's going to take,
00:37:03take some guts if they do,
00:37:04they do do that.
00:37:05So I'm going to,
00:37:07I'm going to figure out the bell cow might,
00:37:09might get more carries,
00:37:10but I'm,
00:37:12I liked what the Raiders did last week with gente.
00:37:15You know,
00:37:16they made him basically a third down back and maybe there's situations where
00:37:19you want Brice in more.
00:37:21And there's maybe you give him a series or something like that more,
00:37:23but I am going Braylon Allen as the heavier,
00:37:27you know,
00:37:28heavier workload here.
00:37:29And that's,
00:37:29I defended Brice a lot on this show through the years.
00:37:32I've always been a Brice guy,
00:37:34but Braylon Allen has blown me away with how he's played the last few weeks.
00:37:37He's played much better than I thought he could.
00:37:39And I admit that,
00:37:41you know,
00:37:41I always thought he was talented in training camp,
00:37:43but I didn't think he'd be this good.
00:37:45So,
00:37:46I'd be,
00:37:46I'd be,
00:37:47I wouldn't back off of that until I had to.
00:37:49I think a huge part of this guys is because of this offense and how it's
00:37:54been able to run the football besides Braylon Allen is because of this
00:37:57offensive line has been playing a lot better as well lately,
00:38:00the last couple of weeks.
00:38:01And you're seeing some really nice returns.
00:38:04I think cause since the return of Dylan Parham and on this offensive line
00:38:07unit,
00:38:07it feels like they've been a better unit overall.
00:38:11And I'm curious,
00:38:13can this offensive line,
00:38:14if they can stay healthy,
00:38:16can they continue to build on what they've done?
00:38:19Or are you going to again,
00:38:21say the real test is this week against the chiefs and the next week versus
00:38:25bills as well.
00:38:27Yeah.
00:38:27I mean,
00:38:28definitely the Raiders,
00:38:30like their defense was not good guys.
00:38:32Like I,
00:38:33there was points in that game where I said that turns out.
00:38:35I said,
00:38:36how did this team win three games?
00:38:37Like they couldn't stop the jets.
00:38:40And then they won the fourth game.
00:38:43But yeah,
00:38:44I mean,
00:38:44the Raiders defense is bad,
00:38:46bad,
00:38:47bad,
00:38:47bad.
00:38:47So I think the jets played well.
00:38:50I don't want to take anything away from them,
00:38:52but I do need to see them do it against the chiefs.
00:38:55You chiefs aren't a great defense.
00:38:57This isn't a great defense,
00:38:58but it's a better test.
00:38:59The bills aren't a great defense,
00:39:01but that's a better test.
00:39:01I'm not sure maybe the Broncos are the next really,
00:39:04really good defense that the jets play.
00:39:07And then they got the Vikings later in the season,
00:39:10which that,
00:39:11so that,
00:39:12but yeah,
00:39:12I think this is a bigger test for them.
00:39:14So I'm not ready to go.
00:39:16this is,
00:39:17you know,
00:39:18the,
00:39:18the offense line is incredible.
00:39:19And really the chiefs guys have not been sacking the quarterback.
00:39:21Yes.
00:39:22Karloftis has two sacks.
00:39:23No one else has more than one sack.
00:39:25Yeah.
00:39:26What they,
00:39:26what they're doing,
00:39:27which is kind of crazy is batting the ball down like wild.
00:39:30Like I talked to a few jets this week about,
00:39:32cause they know that they said,
00:39:33they never seen anything like it.
00:39:34Like they are,
00:39:35they are just knocking down passes left and right.
00:39:38And so that,
00:39:39that'll be something to watch Sunday.
00:39:40Yeah.
00:39:41To your point,
00:39:41cause the chiefs have nine sacks total in the season.
00:39:44That's tied for 30th in the NFL.
00:39:46Last week against the Broncos,
00:39:48they had a 6% pressure rate.
00:39:49They're lowest since 2012.
00:39:51And as of October 9th,
00:39:53a couple of weeks ago,
00:39:54they were last in the NFL and pressure to sack rate at 5.7%.
00:39:57I haven't seen it updated yet,
00:39:59but,
00:39:59and it's,
00:40:01it feels like while we're talking about the run game and Brees and
00:40:04Braylon and all that,
00:40:05even without Garrett Wilson,
00:40:07I still think that's,
00:40:09what's going to ultimately determine how this offense plays on Sunday is
00:40:12can Gino get the ball into these guys' hands and let them make plays
00:40:15down the field?
00:40:16Because cause at night,
00:40:17Mitchell again,
00:40:19look like a throw in for the sauce Gardner trade,
00:40:21but had a,
00:40:22uh,
00:40:23another,
00:40:23I would say it was his best game as a jet.
00:40:25Clearly the Raiders defense is awful.
00:40:28God awful,
00:40:29especially in the secondary,
00:40:31but it's a matter of that consistency with Mitchell.
00:40:33What do you need to see from him this weekend to start really believing
00:40:37the jets might've found a wide receiver too in that sauce Gardner trade?
00:40:40Yeah,
00:40:41it's cause this is,
00:40:41he just said it.
00:40:42And he,
00:40:42he said it.
00:40:43We talked to him at his locker yesterday and we're like,
00:40:44what's it going to take?
00:40:45And he goes,
00:40:45I don't know.
00:40:46That's the first time I've ever had a game like that.
00:40:49He was honest.
00:40:50So we're like,
00:40:51all right,
00:40:51you know,
00:40:51well like,
00:40:52yeah,
00:40:52you need to see the consistency showing up and that's what separates,
00:40:55you know,
00:40:56average players that can have a good game for really good players that do
00:40:58that week in week out.
00:41:00So I,
00:41:00he,
00:41:01he has good chemistry with Gino.
00:41:02That's been evident since the spring really.
00:41:04So I think he can do it.
00:41:07I don't know if he can do it every single week like that,
00:41:10but I think he can prove himself to be a capable number two receiver.
00:41:14And,
00:41:15you know,
00:41:16I think the jets,
00:41:16the,
00:41:17the,
00:41:17the sauce trade continues to age very well.
00:41:21Um,
00:41:22and I'm not as a big part of that.
00:41:23He certainly is.
00:41:25Um,
00:41:26Frankie,
00:41:27these chiefs have coming off two straight losses and they just blew 11.
00:41:30Point fourth quarter lead,
00:41:31which ruined your parlay last week.
00:41:33And the jets haven't won at Arrowhead.
00:41:35Like Kaz said,
00:41:36uh,
00:41:37since November 1st in 1998,
00:41:3928 years ago,
00:41:40if you counting this week,
00:41:41and here's one,
00:41:44nobody's expecting when they were talking about these two teams before the
00:41:47season,
00:41:47Gino Smith has a higher passer rating right now than Patrick Mahomes.
00:41:51Frankie,
00:41:52help me close this out on how this game is going to go between both of
00:41:55these quarterbacks.
00:41:57Well,
00:41:58I think it's again,
00:42:00this is a script that I think is all going to depend on what Frank Reich
00:42:04wants to do.
00:42:05I think Andy Reed is going to come out and,
00:42:08uh,
00:42:08they're going to want to score fast.
00:42:10That's how Kansas city plays,
00:42:12even though their offense has been limping for the most part.
00:42:14And I say that not due to injury,
00:42:16but more due to they're kind of figuring out what they want to do in their
00:42:19passing game.
00:42:20More specifically.
00:42:21Um,
00:42:21they actually use Emmitt Johnson a ton last week out of the passing game,
00:42:24and he was phenomenal for them.
00:42:26He's a firecracker out there.
00:42:28Um,
00:42:29but with their receivers,
00:42:30Rye,
00:42:30they have issues with their receiving core understanding what they want to do.
00:42:34Xavier worthy,
00:42:34still struggling,
00:42:35averaging eight and a half yards to catch,
00:42:37which nobody saw.
00:42:38And,
00:42:39uh,
00:42:39you know,
00:42:40Rashi rice is,
00:42:40is,
00:42:41is good,
00:42:41but he's still trying to understand this offense,
00:42:44I think,
00:42:44and where his role kind of fits in.
00:42:45They don't only have anyone else.
00:42:46They have Taequann Thornton.
00:42:48And,
00:42:48uh,
00:42:49that that's where it stops.
00:42:50Travis Kelsey's our leading receiver by far,
00:42:53but again,
00:42:54aging veteran Kelsey,
00:42:56we're not seeing the Kelsey that we're used to and Noah Gray gets involved here and there.
00:43:00So they're going to try to do things,
00:43:02but I think it's got to go through their run game,
00:43:03right?
00:43:04You got to use Emmitt Johnson out of the backfield or they're running backs and Kenneth Walker.
00:43:08That is their catalyst.
00:43:10But in the passing game,
00:43:11yeah,
00:43:12this,
00:43:12this is going to be interesting because we're down a receiver.
00:43:15Probably they're going to be with their de facto receivers,
00:43:19which seems like they're almost down.
00:43:21Like they're,
00:43:21they're craving for a wide receiver one that they don't have.
00:43:24So both teams,
00:43:26I think it's about who's going to make the bigger plays through the air.
00:43:29I think it'll come down to the run game,
00:43:30but it's going to come down,
00:43:32I think into what's going to happen,
00:43:34uh,
00:43:34in the second half guys.
00:43:35And who's going to be able to make a play down the field.
00:43:37Is it going to be Xavier worthy?
00:43:38Is it going to be 80 Mitchell is,
00:43:40you know,
00:43:41is Omar Cooper jr.
00:43:42Going to bust one out is,
00:43:44you know,
00:43:45one of their tight ends going to sneak out and get a big play on us.
00:43:48So I think that's,
00:43:48that that's going to be where this comes into effect.
00:43:51Also the turnover battle between these quarterbacks specifically.
00:43:54Jets don't turn the ball over.
00:43:56Well,
00:43:56that's going to,
00:43:57well,
00:43:57well,
00:43:57they're not going to win on Sunday unless they get some turnovers.
00:44:00They got to get either you strip.
00:44:01If you can't get an interception,
00:44:03cause we seem like we're allergic to it.
00:44:05You got to get a strip sack.
00:44:06You got to force a fumble.
00:44:07You're not winning this game or even get sniffing,
00:44:09even covering.
00:44:10If you're not going to force a turnover.
00:44:12I'm just telling you.
00:44:13And they're sloppy.
00:44:14Mahomes is sloppy.
00:44:14We know he's,
00:44:15he's been sloppy for the,
00:44:17for the most part for a majority of his career.
00:44:20He'll,
00:44:20he'll give you balls to go after.
00:44:22You just got to make plays on them.
00:44:24Um,
00:44:24cause,
00:44:25you know,
00:44:25I think something that we can't overlook is,
00:44:28and,
00:44:28and I'm curious to hear your thoughts on this one too.
00:44:31The,
00:44:31the chiefs,
00:44:32if you look at their wins,
00:44:33their five wins this year,
00:44:34besides that week one win against the Broncos,
00:44:37it's the Colts.
00:44:38Who are two and six,
00:44:40the dolphins who are one in six,
00:44:42the Raiders,
00:44:43who we just talked about their defense is awful,
00:44:45but they've won four games and the chargers who are Oh,
00:44:48and seven,
00:44:49not the most amazing resume of wins for the chiefs.
00:44:54Are we perhaps overvaluing the chiefs this week going into this weekend?
00:45:00No,
00:45:01because who did the,
00:45:02who did,
00:45:03who's the dolphins one win against against the jets with the Raiders beat
00:45:08last week,
00:45:08the jets.
00:45:10Yeah.
00:45:10So I don't like,
00:45:11yeah,
00:45:11if this was a game between the chiefs and the Patriots who are like,
00:45:16you kind of like,
00:45:17I don't know.
00:45:17I don't know what they are right now.
00:45:19That's more,
00:45:19but the jets are down guys.
00:45:21Like I don't get nine and a half feels right from Vegas.
00:45:24I also think the jets have become the get right opponent.
00:45:27You know,
00:45:27the dolphins got their one win.
00:45:29The Raiders stopped their losing streak.
00:45:30And now the tear come the chiefs losing two straight.
00:45:32It's a brutal place to play.
00:45:34It may be a met life.
00:45:35I give you more,
00:45:36right?
00:45:36Like more of a chance,
00:45:37but it's a brutal place to play there.
00:45:40And we've spent nearly this entire episode talking about the jets offense.
00:45:44That ain't the problem.
00:45:45It ain't the problem.
00:45:47So,
00:45:47I mean,
00:45:48the honesty,
00:45:50like make a Fitzpatrick said jets being jets,
00:45:53losing that game against the Raiders.
00:45:54But besides him and Demario Davis,
00:45:56what else is there to talk about on this jets defense?
00:45:58They just don't do anything well defensively.
00:46:01Yeah.
00:46:01Well,
00:46:01that's a,
00:46:02that's a problem.
00:46:03It's like,
00:46:04so like,
00:46:04you know,
00:46:04you could talk about,
00:46:05uh,
00:46:06the chiefs haven't done this.
00:46:07So they have like,
00:46:08yeah,
00:46:08Kenneth Walker,
00:46:09I feel like he's going to have his way on Sunday.
00:46:11Like,
00:46:11I think he's going to run for a lot of yards.
00:46:14I got a feeling where she rice will suddenly look like a better receiver on
00:46:17Sunday.
00:46:17And Xavier,
00:46:18where they look like a better receiver and my home is going to click like,
00:46:21yeah,
00:46:21this,
00:46:21the jets are a great defense to face.
00:46:23If you're having some offensive struggles right now,
00:46:26ask the Raiders,
00:46:26they,
00:46:27they figured out what they had to do.
00:46:28Ask the dolphins,
00:46:29Malik Wilson,
00:46:30Kirk cousins.
00:46:31I think I saw somebody tweeted,
00:46:33uh,
00:46:33uh,
00:46:33camera who was like,
00:46:35right.
00:46:35Didn't they put up like some,
00:46:37the best EPA to,
00:46:40two of the highest EPA you can have in the season,
00:46:44uh,
00:46:44by a quarterback and both against the jets defense or of an indictment on this
00:46:48head coach who just has told us his play calling is superpower.
00:46:52I know it's trendy to like not be high on Patrick Mahomes anymore,
00:46:56but I think Patrick Mahomes could probably have a good day against them
00:46:59after Kirk cousins and Malik Willis did.
00:47:02Um,
00:47:03before we get into the over unders and the game predictions,
00:47:06uh,
00:47:07you,
00:47:07we had talked about Brees Hall and the,
00:47:09and the trade deadline coming up cause,
00:47:11and you had said before that,
00:47:13you know,
00:47:13you don't,
00:47:14that this,
00:47:14this jets team seems to be telling everyone we,
00:47:17we feel comfortable not making any trades.
00:47:19Does that mean that will McDonald is not going to get moved before
00:47:22the deadline or anyone else on this team?
00:47:24I don't believe will McDonald will get moved again.
00:47:27Caveat.
00:47:28If someone blows him out of the water,
00:47:30does,
00:47:30does Mugi change his mind,
00:47:31but he does not want to trade.
00:47:32McDonald's is what I've been told.
00:47:34Um,
00:47:36the only guys I could see moving right on the guys who aren't going to
00:47:39really move the needle there.
00:47:41Like the,
00:47:41does nation right get traded for a seventh round pick?
00:47:45Do they decide Jarvis Brownlee?
00:47:47Like they,
00:47:47they,
00:47:48they want to put it away for the Angela par on the pons and they can get
00:47:50something for Brownlee.
00:47:51Do they do that?
00:47:52Uh,
00:47:53Andre Cisco,
00:47:54you know what I mean?
00:47:54Stuff like there's going to get you a seventh round picks.
00:47:57There's nothing that's going to really excite anyone.
00:47:59I don't,
00:47:59I don't think it's going to be a quiet trade deadline for the jets.
00:48:02Frankie,
00:48:03your reaction to that?
00:48:04I would play will McDonald as many snaps as humanly possible on Sunday to
00:48:08see if you can get a few sacks out of him,
00:48:10move him.
00:48:11No,
00:48:11seriously.
00:48:11You know,
00:48:12I w I would,
00:48:13I,
00:48:13I right.
00:48:14Cause I mean,
00:48:14it doesn't feel like he fits with this team,
00:48:17but again,
00:48:18maybe next year things change,
00:48:20but why are they not looking at Will McDonald?
00:48:22That seems a little weird.
00:48:23No,
00:48:24he's owed a ton of money.
00:48:25I think,
00:48:26I think you worry about the depth at that position,
00:48:28Frankie,
00:48:29which has been evident right now,
00:48:30right?
00:48:30Like they're playing Nate lane and,
00:48:32uh,
00:48:33Quentin bell last week at the position,
00:48:35right?
00:48:36Uh,
00:48:36whose name I'm struggling to come up with and I cover the team.
00:48:39So it's Joseph aside.
00:48:42Looks like he's going to be,
00:48:43you can't count on him to be healthy this year.
00:48:46Um,
00:48:47so I think for depth at that position,
00:48:49you're a little scared to give them away again.
00:48:52I think if you got something major for him,
00:48:54that's different.
00:48:55Would you trade him for a fifth round pick Frankie?
00:48:58Um,
00:48:59no,
00:49:00but a fourth,
00:49:01I would train for a fourth,
00:49:02fourth,
00:49:03probably.
00:49:03Yeah.
00:49:03Just to take the money off the books and not have to worry about it.
00:49:06Yeah.
00:49:07Yeah.
00:49:07I don't worry about the money.
00:49:08I don't think,
00:49:08and they also could trade him in the off season and clear their money for
00:49:11next year.
00:49:12True.
00:49:12But I could,
00:49:13I think he's a trade.
00:49:14I think he's more likely to trade can in the off season,
00:49:16Frankie.
00:49:17And then you can address the depth,
00:49:18the depth at the position and not,
00:49:20you know,
00:49:21they just,
00:49:21they just don't have very much,
00:49:22a lot of depth at that position right now.
00:49:24I feel like I kind of think they need him and I get it.
00:49:27If you're looking at the perspective as the season's over,
00:49:29you don't care about it.
00:49:30That's not how they're looking at it right now.
00:49:32Another guy that,
00:49:33uh,
00:49:33Jets fans were hypothesizing as when trade deadline is coming is with the
00:49:38Ravens who were down a quarterback,
00:49:40but now they traded for Jacoby Brissett.
00:49:42Would they enter?
00:49:42I'm going to say Juneau.
00:49:43They were not going to say Jets fans were,
00:49:45they were throwing Gino's name out there.
00:49:47It's not happening.
00:49:48And please tell me what Jets fans think they can get for Gino.
00:49:51Oh,
00:49:51it's not about nine weeks left.
00:49:53Again,
00:49:54it's for Jets fans.
00:49:55It is not about what the return would be.
00:49:57It would be just that they're in full tank mode,
00:49:59trying to get the number one pick so they can focus on the future.
00:50:02That is all Jets fans mentality is.
00:50:04That's all we care about the draft.
00:50:06We don't give a crap about this season anymore.
00:50:08Nobody wants to watch these games anymore,
00:50:09but we're doing it.
00:50:11That brings me up.
00:50:12The next question though,
00:50:13since Gino is on pace to have one of the best statistical Jets seasons,
00:50:17franchise history,
00:50:18which is again,
00:50:18a very low bar considering its history.
00:50:22When they draft their quarterback of the future,
00:50:24could you still see a world with how well Gino's played?
00:50:28Could he play himself as that bridge quarterback next year?
00:50:31Yeah,
00:50:32we were actually debating this in the press room the other day,
00:50:34a few of us.
00:50:35And I think there's a couple interesting things.
00:50:37What's it going to cost?
00:50:39What's Gino going to be looking for money wise?
00:50:41And I haven't really analyzed this of like what guys,
00:50:43what guys got this year.
00:50:45Cousins was a little complicated if I remember right,
00:50:47because the Falcons were still paying him,
00:50:50right?
00:50:50Or there was some kind of deal work out there,
00:50:53you know,
00:50:54cause I think he's obviously the bed,
00:50:55the bridge quarterback you look at right now.
00:50:57So what's it going to cost is,
00:50:59would Gino play for $10 million,
00:51:01$12 million?
00:51:02What's it,
00:51:02what's,
00:51:02what's the cost going to be there?
00:51:04Well,
00:51:04Gino,
00:51:05except a role in which you tell him,
00:51:08like,
00:51:08you're keeping the seat warm for mess to make her car,
00:51:12whoever the quarterback is like,
00:51:14you're not going to,
00:51:14you're not going to play the whole season for us.
00:51:16Like you,
00:51:17you're,
00:51:17we'll play it for a while,
00:51:19but at some point we want to see this kid.
00:51:21How will Gino react to that?
00:51:22Is he ready for that?
00:51:23Cause guys have to kind of hit a point in their career where they're ready
00:51:26for that.
00:51:27I'm not sure if Gino's there.
00:51:29I'm not sure he's not,
00:51:29I've never talked to him about it.
00:51:31So I think those are the questions,
00:51:32but in terms of pure play,
00:51:34Ryan,
00:51:34I think he's,
00:51:36he's played better than I thought he would.
00:51:37Yeah.
00:51:37So I don't know what the other options are going to be on the market either.
00:51:42That's the other part of this,
00:51:43but I can't think there's many better options in Gino.
00:51:46If you're looking for a bridge quarterback.
00:51:48Yeah.
00:51:48And look,
00:51:49he's,
00:51:50he's having a great year,
00:51:51like you said before.
00:51:52And if he can do it again this week against the chiefs,
00:51:55put up a lot of yards,
00:51:56put up some touchdowns.
00:51:58The offense just feels like it can hum between the twenties.
00:52:01Can he convert more of them into touchdowns?
00:52:03Frankie's talked about the red zone struggles.
00:52:05I think he could play himself into potentially being a bridge quarterback next year,
00:52:08Frankie.
00:52:08But I do want to spin this a little bit,
00:52:10Frankie for you.
00:52:11If you're a jets fan right now,
00:52:13and this is for you too,
00:52:14cause to react to this has got to be one of the best football viewing weekends and rooting
00:52:20interest.
00:52:21If you're a jets fan for you,
00:52:22can I explain college football wise?
00:52:24You have CJ Carr going up against Darian.
00:52:27Menso Ohio state.
00:52:28I'm not starting to state Miami versus Notre Dame.
00:52:31You have Trinidad Chambliss going up against Georgia's defense this weekend as well.
00:52:37And drew Mestemaker.
00:52:39Who is he playing this week?
00:52:40Frankie,
00:52:40as he's quickly risen up the boards as the number one quarterback,
00:52:43he's playing Kansas state.
00:52:45If you want to watch that one o'clock on Saturday,
00:52:47you're more than welcome to.
00:52:48And then in terms of rooting on Sunday,
00:52:50guys,
00:52:50the Cowboys are playing the Colts.
00:52:53So either way,
00:52:54as long as that game has ended in a tie,
00:52:57whoever loses,
00:52:58you're going to,
00:52:58you're going to end up with a win there for the jets.
00:53:00You want the Cowboys to win that one though,
00:53:02right?
00:53:02A hundred percent.
00:53:03A hundred percent.
00:53:04So what do you ask you this?
00:53:05Let me ask you this,
00:53:06Ryan,
00:53:06because we've talked a lot about tanking and stuff.
00:53:08The fact that the Colts stink,
00:53:10doesn't that help you go,
00:53:13okay,
00:53:13I'm okay with the jets winning games.
00:53:15I agree.
00:53:15That's the pick I think is going to be the top pick.
00:53:17Yes.
00:53:18I a hundred percent agree with you.
00:53:20And if you look at the Colts schedule,
00:53:22there are not a lot of winnable games.
00:53:24There's some coming up here.
00:53:25And if they can get past those with some losses,
00:53:27I think the jets are going to be looking at a team probably with the top one,
00:53:31two or three pick in the draft.
00:53:34Well,
00:53:35cause don't you want true master maker and Jeremiah Smith?
00:53:39Wouldn't that be nice?
00:53:40Did you pick them back,
00:53:41back to back judge fans are saying that,
00:53:45right?
00:53:45You can't,
00:53:46you can't have it all,
00:53:47man.
00:53:48You just can't.
00:53:48That's too many receivers almost.
00:53:50No,
00:53:50I agree.
00:53:51I agree.
00:53:51I'll say this.
00:53:52There's a lot of the,
00:53:53there's a lot of,
00:53:55of,
00:53:55of,
00:53:55of variants potentially with how these quarterbacks can,
00:53:59can go.
00:53:59Cause I love Darian Mensa,
00:54:00but he's got deficiencies with his arm.
00:54:02Mess to maker seems to be the guy,
00:54:04but I'm curious.
00:54:06I'm curious to see who kind of goes into that,
00:54:08like number two or three spot.
00:54:09We're still waiting to see if arch can kind of reach some sort of
00:54:12ceiling.
00:54:13You're still looking at CJ car.
00:54:15The jets seem to like him.
00:54:16What does he look like?
00:54:17He seems to be a high floor razor,
00:54:18but not really a,
00:54:20not,
00:54:21you know,
00:54:21a small,
00:54:21a lower ceiling.
00:54:22So yeah,
00:54:23it's a big weekend.
00:54:24Malachi Tony's out too.
00:54:25So that'll be big for Darian Mensa.
00:54:28How do you look without one of the best receivers in college?
00:54:30So I'm curious to see how he looks.
00:54:32Cause he plays the position the right way.
00:54:33I kind of like all that he does,
00:54:35but without Tony there,
00:54:36those yard numbers will obviously go down a bit.
00:54:39Cause it's no secret.
00:54:40The jets have to be looking for a quarterback in the draft.
00:54:43What have you seen thus far that like just from preliminary,
00:54:45like viewing,
00:54:47who do you like who who's impressed you the most out of these college
00:54:50quarterbacks?
00:54:51Yeah.
00:54:51I like car a lot.
00:54:53I,
00:54:53I,
00:54:54he's not flashy,
00:54:55so he's not going to be as popular,
00:54:58probably as mess to maker or chambliss.
00:55:00Like these guys,
00:55:01those guys are more traits guys than car,
00:55:04but I just kind of,
00:55:06he just kind of looks like a guy to me.
00:55:07Who's probably was gloom to play the position.
00:55:10Cause his grandfather was the head coach at Michigan.
00:55:13And now his brother's the quarterback at Michigan.
00:55:16So I,
00:55:17I like car a lot,
00:55:18Ryan.
00:55:18He's kind of one.
00:55:19And I've watched a lot of them.
00:55:21I watched a lot of Notre Dame.
00:55:22So I've seen him a lot and he's impressed me.
00:55:24A mess to maker.
00:55:25I watched last Saturday.
00:55:27I've been the first time this season.
00:55:29I told a little bit of him last year and it was up and down when I
00:55:32watched him,
00:55:33you know,
00:55:33he,
00:55:33you can see the traits are there.
00:55:35Like you're drafting on traits with him to me.
00:55:38And like,
00:55:38he's,
00:55:39he obviously has,
00:55:40has an unconventional path to the role.
00:55:43So I don't think he's played,
00:55:44you know,
00:55:44a ton of quarterback.
00:55:45And there were some throws that were,
00:55:47you were like,
00:55:48Oh wow,
00:55:48that was a bad throw.
00:55:49So he's not a perfect guy at all.
00:55:52I think it's going to be interesting to see what happens over the next two
00:55:56months.
00:55:56And then the,
00:55:57the draft process after that,
00:55:59because these things are hard to predict with the way they're going to
00:56:02go.
00:56:03I'll stand by it though.
00:56:04Guys,
00:56:05despite it all is an all time viewing weekend for,
00:56:08for Jets fans in terms of college football and the NFL,
00:56:11where you're rooting and how these games are going to be.
00:56:13You're going to go besides the Jets game,
00:56:15obviously besides the Jets game,
00:56:16which is the least exciting thing I would say of all the things that we're
00:56:19talking about here.
00:56:20If you're a Jets fan looking in the future over unders guys last week,
00:56:24good week for everyone.
00:56:26Cause Frankie,
00:56:27you both went three and one with your picks last week.
00:56:30I,
00:56:30however,
00:56:31went four and oh,
00:56:32so.
00:56:33Wow.
00:56:36I don't know what you're talking about on the season cause,
00:56:42raises his record.
00:56:44Now to 12 and 19,
00:56:46Frankie 10 and 17.
00:56:47And I am now 18 and 13 on the season.
00:56:51So five games above 500.
00:56:52Let's talk about them.
00:56:54There are not many props for the jets out there because they're still waiting to
00:56:57see the injuries.
00:56:58Like for Garrett Wilson,
00:57:00the Brees Braylon thing is going to play a huge factor.
00:57:02So they have not released any props for those players.
00:57:05So I only got one Jets player and then I got three chiefs players on these props
00:57:09guys.
00:57:10Let's start with Gino Smith.
00:57:11They do have him at 220 and a half pass yards cause.
00:57:16What do you have?
00:57:17That's every week,
00:57:18every week.
00:57:19They are very consistent.
00:57:212222.
00:57:22Yeah.
00:57:22I'm going to go over on Gino.
00:57:24I think the jets are going to be down in this game.
00:57:26So I think there's going to be a lot of passing in the second half.
00:57:28I don't necessarily think it's going to be his best game.
00:57:30I think he's due for a dud at some point here,
00:57:33but I think they're just going to be throwing the ball so much that he'll clear that 220 mark.
00:57:37I agree with you.
00:57:38I'm going to take his over.
00:57:39I think even despite Garrett Wilson,
00:57:41probably not playing this weekend with concussion.
00:57:43I think there are plenty of weapons.
00:57:46Him get the ball out there and guys are getting open on the field.
00:57:49Not just Garrett Wilson.
00:57:50They're leading the,
00:57:51there's some guys who are leading the league in tart and yard in a separation on routes run,
00:57:56including Adonai Mitchell.
00:57:57I think they're going to have a nice day through the air.
00:57:59Frankie,
00:57:59what do you got?
00:58:01Yeah.
00:58:01I'm curious with Mansoor Delane,
00:58:04whether he plays or not,
00:58:05he's been awesome this year for Kansas city.
00:58:08He didn't play last week.
00:58:09I'm curious if he plays,
00:58:10but assuming he plays even at,
00:58:14you know,
00:58:1460%,
00:58:14I'll take the over.
00:58:15I'm going over.
00:58:16Okay.
00:58:17Let's go to the chiefs.
00:58:18They got Patrick Mahomes at 250 and a half pass.
00:58:22Wow.
00:58:23Cause.
00:58:26That's a tough number.
00:58:29I'll go over.
00:58:30I think the chiefs offense is going to have their way.
00:58:33I do think a lot of it's going to be on the ground,
00:58:36but that I do think Mahomes can clear 250.
00:58:40I think it's actually going to go under with Mahomes just because of what you just said.
00:58:44I think they're going to carry the ball with Kenneth Walker and Johnson who looked awesome last week.
00:58:49I don't think Mahomes is going to be asked to do as much in this one.
00:58:52So I would take the under on Mahomes,
00:58:54250 and a half pass.
00:58:55It's cause Frankie,
00:58:56what do you got?
00:58:58I'm going to go under.
00:58:59You know why?
00:58:59Cause my guy should be back on Sunday.
00:59:02Everything's going to be fine.
00:59:03Everyone,
00:59:04David Bailey will be back on Sunday.
00:59:05So we'll be okay.
00:59:06So I'm going under there.
00:59:07My homes ain't going to be able to run around like a chicken back there.
00:59:09So well going under cause the jets have not done well covering the tight end.
00:59:14Travis Kelsey.
00:59:15They got him at 50 and a half receiving yards.
00:59:19Under.
00:59:20I'll go under on that.
00:59:21I think,
00:59:21I think,
00:59:23yeah,
00:59:23I'll go under on that one.
00:59:25Respectfully.
00:59:26I'm going to disagree and go with the over for Travis Kelsey.
00:59:28I think he can get that probably in like three catches.
00:59:31Frankie.
00:59:31I'm the first drive.
00:59:32Yeah.
00:59:35Opening script drive.
00:59:37I'm going over,
00:59:38right?
00:59:38All right.
00:59:39And then this one's going to shock you guys.
00:59:41And I had to look it up three different times just to make sure I got the number right for
00:59:44Kenneth Walker.
00:59:45They have him at 90 and a half rush yards against this jets defense for draft Kings cause.
00:59:52I need a half over.
00:59:55I agree.
00:59:56That's a crazy number.
00:59:57It's an insane number,
00:59:58but Vegas is telling you that's how many,
01:00:01how much he could go for it on Saturday,
01:00:02Sunday against his jets defense.
01:00:04Frankie.
01:00:06You know what?
01:00:07I'm going to go under.
01:00:08There you go.
01:00:09I'm going to go.
01:00:09Cause I think Emmett Johnson's going to get involved a little more last couple of weeks.
01:00:13Kenneth Walker has been a little bit,
01:00:14I don't want to say off,
01:00:15but he hasn't been getting as many carries.
01:00:17Seems like he's still hurt a little bit.
01:00:18So I'll go under.
01:00:19All right.
01:00:20Let's do some predictions here.
01:00:22Last week.
01:00:22I picked the jets,
01:00:23which I didn't want to,
01:00:24but you guys kind of made me do it.
01:00:26Uh,
01:00:28Oh,
01:00:28COC blames us.
01:00:30Cause you see this on the season causes five and three Frankie six and one,
01:00:34and I am four and four for picking these games.
01:00:37I'll start with you,
01:00:38Frankie,
01:00:38since you're the hot guy over there.
01:00:40What do you got for this game prediction?
01:00:43All right.
01:00:44So this isn't a complicated one.
01:00:48This isn't one to overthink.
01:00:50I do think there are things the jets can do with their pass rush with Bailey
01:00:54coming back.
01:00:56Um,
01:00:56and I think there's things they could do,
01:00:58uh,
01:00:59you know,
01:00:59versus that Kansas city offense to kind of level the playing field a bit.
01:01:03They don't have these star studded receivers.
01:01:06You don't have the best cornerback room.
01:01:08So kind of,
01:01:09you know,
01:01:10kind of balances out a bit.
01:01:12Um,
01:01:12but yeah,
01:01:13listen,
01:01:14Kansas city's coming off two awful losses.
01:01:16They're not going to lose three in a row and they're not going to lose three
01:01:18in a row at home to us.
01:01:20That's just not going to happen.
01:01:21You might have the biggest discrepancy in,
01:01:24in,
01:01:25in a head coaching matchup as the NFL has ever seen between Andy Reed and Aaron
01:01:30Glenn.
01:01:30So,
01:01:31uh,
01:01:31that's all time right there.
01:01:32That's an all time discrepancy.
01:01:34So,
01:01:34um,
01:01:35yeah,
01:01:35I am taking Kansas city and you can give me whatever points they're given,
01:01:40right?
01:01:40What are they giving?
01:01:4011 and a half right now on draft Kings 10.
01:01:43Yeah.
01:01:44Give me,
01:01:44give me,
01:01:44uh,
01:01:45give me 14 on that one.
01:01:46So,
01:01:46uh,
01:01:47I'm going to go Kansas city,
01:01:4934 jets,
01:01:4920.
01:01:52Cause pretty right.
01:01:55Yeah.
01:01:55I'm right there with Frankie.
01:01:56Uh,
01:01:57the chiefs need to get right.
01:01:58And they got the perfect opponent coming in to get right against.
01:02:01Uh,
01:02:01I just,
01:02:03usually I can see a scenario where the jets can win a game.
01:02:06I just don't see the scenario here.
01:02:08How,
01:02:08how this would play out,
01:02:09how you could see a path to victory for the jets.
01:02:11I think the defense has major issues.
01:02:13I think the offense,
01:02:15you know,
01:02:15played so well last week.
01:02:16They probably take a little step back this week without Garrett,
01:02:19uh,
01:02:20figuring out the running back thing.
01:02:21Um,
01:02:23I will go chiefs,
01:02:2535 jet 17.
01:02:28All right.
01:02:29Uh,
01:02:29I will say this.
01:02:30I think you got to pick the jets now,
01:02:32right?
01:02:32No,
01:02:32no,
01:02:32Yeah.
01:02:33Come on.
01:02:33Right.
01:02:33You have to catch up,
01:02:34right.
01:02:34You have to catch up on us.
01:02:36I'm going to be safe to get away.
01:02:38No,
01:02:39I,
01:02:39I,
01:02:40I want to get a win this week.
01:02:42And that means the chiefs are going to win this football game.
01:02:43I actually think it'll be close at halftime.
01:02:46The jets will be down like one score,
01:02:47like a touchdown going into halftime.
01:02:49Cause they'll do some stuff on offense.
01:02:51The chiefs might be like,
01:02:52Oh,
01:02:52okay.
01:02:53But then second half my homes read,
01:02:55they make their adjustments.
01:02:56Unlike the jets who don't know how to make adjustments.
01:02:58And I think they just run away with it.
01:03:00In the end,
01:03:00I'll pick the chiefs winning this one.
01:03:03I'll make it chiefs.
01:03:0430 jets.
01:03:0714,
01:03:0729,
01:03:0814.
01:03:10That's a show.

01:03:17the,
01:03:18the comments by our,
01:03:19our wonderful DC Brian Duker.
01:03:21I think this is some amazing stuff here.
01:03:23He was asked about the jets plan and how they expect to,
01:03:27uh,
01:03:27to,
01:03:28you know,
01:03:28guard Travis Kelsey.
01:03:30And if,
01:03:31if how he expects the chiefs to attack them with Travis Kelsey,
01:03:34he was asked that.
01:03:35And Brian Duker responded,
01:03:36I would not anticipate reading their mind on that.
01:03:40It's a good answer.
01:03:42That's all he said.
01:03:43He had a two and a half minute press conference today.
01:03:46It's unbelievable.
