Welcome back to the Official Jets Podcast. Ethan Greenberg, Eric Allen, joined by Bart Scott Bart. Thanks for joining us. Players are Captain Kirk. Oh, Captain Kirk. I don't know if I like that. I'm Scotty. You do do that? Always go out and die every mission? All right, Well, we're power before we start. We're powered by Amazon Web Services. We're in the bet MGM Casino studio. You can find us on New York Jets dot com, YouTube, Apple Podcast,
rate us, review us. Your financial literacy teacher. You go to sports organizations throughout the United States, and we just got the contract with the NBA two. So I wasn't able to go out. Don't do every presentation, but Antoine Walker went out and um I heard Rick, I mean Lebron was impression. Oh they did the Lakers and you didn't go to l a Man. I have to work, man, This this is my time of the year. Man, this is football season. Wait, wait, have you met Lebron? I
never met Lebrick. Yeah, I was gonna say, how how did you pass over the fact that Bart called Lebron Lebrick? I passed it over because I know who part is. I've been alongside him since two thousand nine. He is from Detroit. Yeah, we don't play that. We don't play those Cleveland days. He he don't have any love for what's going on in Inglewood. Herman words used to say, it's all good in Inglewood, but for part it's all about the motor City Detroit. Well I figured that I
just wanted to touch a Preston fan. Yeah, you got a problem with Lebron, I don't. I mean, listen, I like Lebron. Lebron and what he's done with I Promise and all that stuff. It's amazing, you know what I'm saying. I just don't rock with him on a basketball court because I'm a Pitstons fan. So once you're an enemy of MINS, and you're always an enemy, I can't root for you. What about this paring between you? Antoine? Antoine Walker the former star Kentucky. Then he played in the
NBA play Footballston won a championship with Lebrick. I believe in um and uh Miami um. So you know he's come out. He's been very transparent with with his story about how he lost I believe a hundred and eighty million dollars you know, story that we're here all too often in sports, and you know he's been. He don't want people to have the same financial pitfalls that he's had to make the same mistakes each one, teach one.
He could have went and found the biggest hole to hide in, but he chose to step out and and try and change the narrative of other athletes and give them just the information and the tools. And it's something you to make the decision that you want. But that's one side of the spectrum. You come at it from a different angle. His presentation to the guys is, don't beat me. I am this is what happened to me. What are you tell him? Well, I just talked to
him about how you utilize your network. Right, It's not about your network. It's about your network because the hardest thing to get in life to me is information. And for to get the information, you have to have a solid circle where you can be able to slide up and down people networks. And you know, the best time to build your network in the easiest time to build your network is when you have something to value to
offer to people. And when you're a football player and you're current and you're hot, and your current you're now, it's the time that you go out into some of these companies. You go to these events instead of you know, being anti social, you get out and you introduce yourself and you find guys that have some of the similar interests that you want and people that have been there, done that that can help guide you because you're so busy focusing on football, but you have to focus on
life after football and what you want to do. No matter how much money you make, you want to make sure that you know, you focus so that you're you're you're using all your energy in one direction. You know. I keep thinking about you and Detroit and the Bad Boys team, and I just want to know. I just want to know, Like, who's the guy that you want to line up with of that team? Well, you probably
gotta go with the enforcer, Rick Mhorn. Well, you know what, But another bad man was Bennie Johnson the microwave coming up off the bench, you know. But also Bennie looked like, hey, if you want him some smoke, Benny would smacked the taste out of your mouth, you know. But he was a guy that really not got involved in that type of stuff. I like Bill Lambeer simply because I feel like he was like the zach Thomas of the Pistons. He was he got more out of his athleticism. He's
got closer to his silling than anybody else. You know, the worst thing in the world is waste of talent. Yeah, waste of talent ware to go. So you see that's footprints. He knew I was struggling to find the term. And we've been together, us alone, and he picked me up. So at that point it was one set of feat in the sands and it was that time that e a Kerry bart Scott. That's Bronx. Tell Robert Nero, have you ever seen that movie. I've not seen Bronx. I've
not seen a lot of movies. Yeah yeah, he I thought, I take you for a Truman Show type of guy. Never seen the Truman Show, but I do know what it's about. Okay, Wow, what were you like? What are you like? Uhh Arnold Schwarzeninger and twins. You're born on the island. All you had with books in Greek mythology. Well you might need some training. That's why I thought you went to that. I Google you got the Google? Yeah, I got the Google. That yeah, I'm not that smart.
I got Google, so we got off on the fandom. We got off the tension with the financial literacy. But since we are in the bet MGM casino studio, I bet that you much of a gambler at all, Not at all. But I do do the read for bet MGM at my other places at work. I won't get them a shameless but you know what I'm saying, I'll do that in tonight, so you don't when you go to casino. You want to even go to no, no, no,
no no, no sport. Yeah, yeah, of course I'm not good. No, no, I would love to be sport that I just the spreads and stuff like that. That was my was my land. I was too busy playing the sport to learn how to bet on it and gamble on and all the sprays I can bet who I think is gonna win, all the point spread and stuff like that. That's not my expertise. But you know, I do know tonight the M GYM has a special on the San Francisco forty niners versus. I'm just saying I'm trying to get more
money for beating MGM. We're not on radio, right now this is a podcast, man. Yeah, but but you say writer as Texas own Apple, they're gonna hear about this and they're gonna throw some money. All right. So here's the thing. By the time this air's the forty nine or Seahawks game will have been over. But Bart knows and stuff. Yeah, he does every every week. You're trying to get the plug. I appreciate that. I feel like
that's gonna go one of two ways. Either Russell is gonna do is m VP magic and they're gonna win, or San francistical. But simply to win, all you have, all the all the the forty nine do is get a sack and then you get hundreds and one odds. And that's every week on bet MGM. That's how they wrote. They'll just take some player, take out the sport and throw it in there for someone that does nothing with
sports betting. It sounds like you know quite a lot. Well, no, I listen, I am the ultimate I am the ultimate flavor flav. I can hype anybody. Okay that what's your what's your table game of choice? Black jack? Baby, let's do it. And if and if I'm sitting there and we next to each other and the diller have a two showing and you split sixes, I might Rick Flair chop you at the able. Somebody might die. I lose. How much noise do you talk at the table? No,
I'm I'm pretty chure. Yeah, I just don't like to the cooler and stuff like that. When they come in, you win in, they switch your out and then all of a sudden, the dudes on the extended lunch break and they send the cooler, and I don't like that. Do you get mad? Like if a dude's sitting next to you or old lady and they're at sixteen and they stay. It depends on what the dealer showing. If that the dealer showing the two, that's what I was just talking about. You better stay because you mess with
my money and I'm bawling on the budget. Al Right, you're the rules. The rules are in black jack, well headlines I guess would be seventeen, you stay and then under under seventeen. Yeah, but if they have a three or something like that showing, and it's it's more odds and maybe you gotta assume that every card on there is a face card and they got to continue to hit so that so the odds go in your favor.
So if they're showing the twelve and you got a south hand, no matter how much your hand is, you don't want to take their bus card because they have to take a certain amount if they if it's under its sa sai, if it's the three and then it's a six under there. They gotta keep hitting and keep hitting, and the more hits they take, the greater odds that they're gonna bust. You need to just stay and I take the bus car and then or we're gonna have an issue. True or false. You're a big car guy.
I do I like cars? Do you have a favorite carm I'm selling a lot of my cars though, you know what I mean? I knew that, but like, is there one that that either you don't own that you're like that is? That's Crema Krem. You always want these six but I always like the six by six Mercedes truck. Have you do you know what that is? It's a huge Mercedes truck. Well it's basically the g Wagon but it has actually a bed and it was designed I see I've seen photos of Canelo got got one and
really what it was? Um, the Australian UH Coast Guard or whatever it was. They needed a vehicle that can go through the sand, so they built a super truck that has six tires on both sides and it's it's basically a g wagon with a truck with a bed in and it's one of these super badass cars. I'm sorry, can I say? Yeah? You can? So where do you drive that? If you have that, you can drive it anywhere? Though? Yeah? No, but you got that. No, I don't have what is
your what's your favorite mobile? I don't know. I mean, I mean, I'm a Ferrari guy, so I love I like anything Ferrari. So they got this crazy uh. I think it's an sp F ninety and it's their first um answer to Tesla. And even though it's only gonna run half the price of the left Ferrari because it's instant. Uh, it has a V eight in it, but you know, it has the Ferrari V eight that they put in all like the and the uh the F eights and all that stuff. But then they also have three electrical
motors that goes to the rear in front tires. It's all wheel drive, so it's probably like zero to sixty and like one and where do you fall on old American muscle cars? Well, I do have. I currently have a sixty seven fasts back Eleanor, but I'm selling it. Yeah, it's just like old car been able to tune ups and carburetors and stuff like that. If you don't drive them, you know they you know, it's always something going on with him. So I've had it since two thousand twelve,
and you know so signed by Carol Shelby. It's like number fifty one that they did. I bought it right after he passed and people were entering there, um like kind of yeah, they were getting all this Shelby stuff out because they knew it would go for a premium and obviously able to get one for a good price at Barrett Jackson. I bought one. You ever going to like track? Now I'm not a NASCAR guy, but what about Lewis Hamilton? I want to go to I always
say it wrong Meloncello? Okay, Monica was here, right, I don't so I go up to Monica and I race, but then I always stare wrong. So in Italy they have the big race Cello, right, So that's the dope place because they actually raced through the city. And then all the people be having their yachts and stuff because they have like the Spain version of Miami, and then people have It's somewhere around there, and then you know they're having parties and pool parties, like on the top
roof after cars are going by. You you get the aero shots and you can get a package and you you link up with people and you like get yachts and you like have yacht parties and it's a whole weekend. You see a lot of Okay, So I know before we started the podcast, I was talking to I was like, what do you want to talk about? And he wanted to bring up two thousand nine ye trying to remember glory days. Man, Well, okay, I'll get some more glory glory days. Well what did you want to bring up? Though?
That you wanted the truth about your free agency because apparently there are a bunch of rumors going around. There weren't rumors, but but a bunch of stories. In check. I remember you talking to the media after you did, indeed signed with the New York Jets after starting your career with the Baltimore Ravens that Rex, Ryan and Dennis Thurman were at your place and Patton and the dogs were out. It almost got eight seeing yet. Okay, so this is real. It almost died. I got attack dogs.
Where where was your place at the time, Well, I was annoying smile Maryland, probably like a block and a half half a mile by the facility right off of I believe Randolph Road. And what happens if they knew where I lived and they knew that what time was to sign and Rexton want Ozzie to get me because you know, Ozzie still wanted me and hardball. We had
just came from the a FC Championship. They were trying to keep that momentum going and Rex wanted to kind of, you know, bring me in some other players, but he wanted to sign me first, to kind of bring that attitude over to New York. Jet that kind of like the same thing with C. J. Mosley, like coming over here to kind of show the guys like what that program, that culture is all about. And you know they came over.
They came over whatever, early, late whatever. They can't get fined anymore, but you know, I knew they were coming over and we're gonna kind of have some fun and announced and they were gonna come get me and we're gonna leave. Um. But they came to my house. They didn't realize that I have a visible dog fence. And what I did is my dogs I knew they could go outside the fence. So I had like an acre and a half kind of like fenced in an electrical uh dog fence or the visible fence what they're gonna
call it. But I always kept my garage open so the dogs can go use the bathroom and they'll go back in. Right, So they pull up, they don't see nothing. They're like, whatever, get up, We about to go knock on the door. As soon as they pulled up got out, the dogs came out and like like chase him. And then they was like call me. And then I had to come out and say they life. Because they are tack dogs. The first bite for my dogs, they're all trained by um this this canine trainer in Alabama, So
they first bide is a crotch bite. Yeah, man, I can just I'm trying to imagine d t Rex and mike Ye. They're walking up and then running away from your attack. They're all gonna be reduced to Vianna sausages face because you know, Rex can't run, he's not a long stride and he was big Rex at that time, so she got that school. So but Rex is Rex is resilient. He probably would have threw d tr or petting in front and said save yourself and threw them in front and then let them get talk to you
right now. Well too, I got rid of them. He was crazy for real, like the other one he was like he was I think he was mentally Did you give him somebody or that came back? Because when you get them, they're not puppies. You got him in like six months, you know what I'm saying, So I give him back, And like, what were the indicators that he was a little well one, I didn't know because it's my first time having an animals. Are we on? Okay?
So I didn't know. So the thing was that you can't have two male dogs and continue to mark for territory. So what happened is I had I had made her first, which is the one that's fifteen now, And what happened is they were marking territory and pain everywhere, and then um, the other one just he was like a fox. He was like a red colored with hayes. Well I looked pretty dude. We just called my dad He's called Hi Terrace Howard because you just think he was like you
know all that, you know what I'm saying. But him and made Her was going at it. And um, one day they had they had the invisible fence and then we left it on too long, so they had to go get anybiotics. So they drugged him a little bit and he kind of nipped at my wife and he was kind of didn't follow all these instructions, and um, I just I just like get rid of them. Because Made he was there first and Made it was such a tremendous dog. He was pure bred from like Germany.
His he you know, we can trace his um his heritage all the way back to Germany when his dad was like a champion fighter and all that type of stuff from where he came from. So you know, we got rid of We got rid of him and came came to Jersey, kept made her and we just brand made her maybe four years ago because everybody wanted a dog like Made because even my trainer, you know, people like,
oh my kids, the best in the world. No. Um, the trainers like this one of the best dogs he's ever had, ever trained, and so like everybody around like like, man, this dog is amazing. Like he's he's like he's really like gentle, but like he's always an alert. You can hear him at night, like checking everybody room. He'll sit in front of somebody, lay in front of somebody room for a little bit, go laying somebody else room wherever
he wants, and like um and then um. Like if if my wife one time we had a friend over and they were kind of just she was sitting down and don't realize that mater, he is always watching and if he ever he feels my wife or one of the kids are like um, in a vulnerable position, certain
things you can't do. So like my wife was sitting down on the floor and her friend came down and said hey, and it was standing over my wife and was moving her hands real fast and made her like bitter hand, you know what I mean, because like he felt like so like made her if like he felt like I was in trouble, he would come stand right in between my legs and like he'll sit there and like put up his ball and just started looking at stuff like that. I have a movie reference. Have you
seen Once upon a Time in Hollywood? Yes, you should see that will Leonardo DiCaprio. But Brad Pitt has a ya. Okay, Brad Pitt has a dog. And by the way you're describing your dog, it sounds very similar, right. Yeah, he was training towards the end where the dog said, Okay, school time, I gotta protect that. Well, remember I don't know you got seen John Wick the last one. Howard Berry had the two dogs and she was she like they tried to kill her dogs and she shot the
dudes and John Wick. Yeah, they were kind of like that because they were trained for car jacking. Two so car jack and they used dogs. Yeah yeah, so like so in car jack and they put that you put the gun in the car because no nobody says out called the car. They usually put the gun inside the car. So they were trained to bite the hand down and and locked down while I can get the gun out. Well that's so anyway, So anyway, I um I bred them And did he keep any of the pups. Yeah,
I kept one tells the box Rocks. I mean, I'm almost ashamed to even say that this dog is from Mater and what happened is I made it them with my landscapers German shepherd that was fat and had a black tail and just two jeans didn't mix. It was It's a regretful thing, but you know what, you gotta love all your kids. How many dogs do you have one? And my wife just bought like a teacup like Pomerani and it only gets like five piles. But he's a little fat little thing, but he thinks he's a thought.
Oh yeah, yeah, you gotta keep my side because the hawk and pick him up. Let me tell spicy trip. Let me tell you something. I'm catching up on my movies on our road trips here because Once upon the Time and very good black mask that Johnny tap. Y'all cheat, y'all cheating because y'all catching up in the air. Hell yeah, hell yeah, you gotta do something. You're undisturbed in the air. No one can text you. You're just they're zoning in
on the little screen. When you traveled, did you used to watch movies or were you watching game film on a Saturday or no, no, on Saturday, it was like, you know, relax time, get your mind right. So I would just sit there. A lot of times I wouldn't watch anything. I would just visualize are you serious? Yeah? What about it? After the game? After the game. It depends on how far the trip was. Would you watch
film right away? No? Film right away? No? No, I have to, like I'm processing everything that I did wrong and if we want, if we lost, making sure that the guys aren't going too crazy, if we lost, make sure that the guys are, you know, having fun, if we want, making sure that I'm going to talk to everybody. That's the stuff that you know, you're supposed to do when you're trying to keep people together and bring people put people off, and talk about what is the plane like? Oh?
It depends you know, yeah, it depends on the group. I mean I've been a part of all kind of planes. Um, I've seen guys win down payments on or being able to buy callas like cash from uh four hour plane right like play you know everybody in the NFL, I
don't play, but play Boo Ray. So they're back there and there's tens of thousands of dollars that can be lost in one I think he uh Randy Hind from Baltimore, I think he wanted like forty grand Yeah, on a plane ride back and winning bought a callac cold cash baby. So bootray is what I don't know. You don't I don't play. Bar doesn't remember. He does not bet unless
it's blackjack or bowling. We so we just had this thing like in Baltimore where people see this thing about athletes, right, they think they're good at everything, so like you can't tell them that they can't figure it out. So we used to go bowling, and you know every can bowl a little bit. Uh, Jamal thought he can bowl. Y think he's can bowl, So we should go bowling, right, And it used to be a bunch of us. And when you board, you you gamble on anything. So we
gamble on every ball strike. Spare hundred dollars from everybody, so like you can go ten frames, you could be winning five hundred dollars a frame or losing five hundred dollars a frame. So the thing is most athletes, if they lose, they won't let you leave. They make you bet back. And Chris mccolle's was he was always like that, right, he was like, no, no bet back, And eventually you just like no, Bro I gotta go, like we're beat back ten times. People like doubling nut tripling, Like he's
like that, you know what I'm saying. So we had this gamel, didn't you or something? No. I took bowling college, but I bowled my whole life. Every So every athlete from Detroit can bowl. They butt off, right. Everybody knows that Jerome Bannis has like three perfect games. Like my high game is like to sixty. Because of Detroit. It's no spring ball. You got no life, so you gotta find something to do indoors. So all Detroit people bowl.
I was on bowling team since I was a kid, So I got my own bowling ball drilled with a counterweight in the inside for my hook. So I like, but you can't tell them that they sitting there they got a house ball. They don't realize that. But I bought my ball first of all. You gotta have you. He might he might not even remember this, but like you know, Chris Paul has this bowling tournament on like you know TV, Like he may not even remember me,
but like he thought he was a man. He was friends with raised, so he would come to stuff when he I believe when he first gonna leak. He was with what New Orleans or something like that. But but Chris Paul first teams the Hornets, wasn't okay, Hornets okay, so he would come and he came. Yeah, but then they went to New Orleans or something. Right, Yeah, he definitely played in New Orleans, right, right, So like he would come to Rage, just had his angul thing, and
like he thought he was a man. Like he's sitting there bowling everybody like this is the thing. I only need one game. I don't like no warm up, none of that stuff. Right, So, like they're going and they're doing anything, He's like home over the ball and I come in late stretch. Marm a couple of times pulled Timmy out in his night night time, and he think he got I went to Troy. I never lost one of those trophes. So like when he has that, like he would never invite me. I see he had mar
Willie had other guys on there. If he ever had invite me to that. He don't want to smoke because I embarrass him on national team in the name for your bowling, Timmy and all. And you know, I don't know if you know this, but I feel like I'd like to see a bart Scotch Ball Adams bowling match because Jamal is supposedly this big bowler. But I'm sure you got your all right, I'm gonna say, I'm sure you have your thoughts on that, but I think I
got my answer. I don't want no smoke. Come on, Grasshopper. He might think it's a new movie, but it's just a rerun to me, what's your most quoted movie of all time? Speaking of movies, it depends, It depends. It could be Friday, It could be myself, and it can be uh usual Suspects. It could be anything. It could be it could be our armor getting, it could be anything,
could be uh life. You know, in Baltimore, we ust to talking in movie so like our whole communication would be movie quotes and they made sense and if you didn't know what we were talking about, you'd be like they were crazy. But everybody that was in there understood because everybody was big movie buzz. So we always spoken
movies or terms from movies. You know, I think Bill Belichi, not Bill Brian Billet has like this little funny thing that he was just talking about how crazy that was with State mc there because when Steve Stephen there for I got here, I think what was I think I was doing? I was quoting seven? You know. He was like, this dude's freaking crazy, so like this his first practice with us a defense And I was like, you got the trials with Joves coming to you, Mr, Like, what
the hell is this? This dude? This is as he's singing his Caden's and I'm quoting like all nor practice, I'm quoting seven, like all the five, all the seven deadly sins and all that stuff. Did you see that? Don't open the box? He has the advantage? He has the advantage was disturbing. I'm not I'm not good at remembering the quotes, Like I've seen seven and I understand the reference, but I couldn't spit it back to you
unless I see it like hundreds of times. Shamefully, the movie I know best quote wise is too fast, too furious, But I love it and I know like every word from it, and it's kind of I feel like it's kind of a sickness. But I got to use a good quote for something. We're having a conversation. When the opportunity rises, all I'll think of one speaking of quotes, Sail pan Antonio, I like that transition that's called a pivot. The two thousand and ten run the Visional Playoffs day, well,
the last time the Jets had a playoff run. And it's been too long, but I think the good things are on the horizon for this tea. Yeah, but um Bart comes in the locker room after the game. Because we had always done things weekly and I always talked him in the locker room and stuff like that. He comes in the locker room, he goes, I just went if it off, And I said, what are you talking about? He's like, I just talked to Sal. I just lost it out there. What do you? What do you? So?
Can't wait? Was born. We went on the bus after. I didn't know what I did well, because you you have these episodes sometimes you call him blackouts. Yeah, like Frank to Tank, like when when old school, when he got shot, Like when when he when he was so when he was debating wilferrely, like what happened? He was like, it's no rebuttaled. That was perfect. So we get on the bus with the staff bus after that game and
we're heading to the airport. The short ride back from a providence and we we Sai, one of the PR staffers actually pulled it out on her phone, said, this guy he's a wrestler. Because the whole speech when you're watching it and you're watching the sales, smile and he just said to get out of the way. Yes, salades. He gave me room to breathe. But where the whole can't wait came from because I was still talking, but I guess he had to wrap, yeah, and he was
like he cut me off, like I wasn't finished. I was like sorry, And that's where it came out of. I love sALS reaction like in the interne because you know, he just got gold right, like he's laughing, like, holy hell, this guy actually is going off. It goes all right in Pittsburgh. Yeah, that's my favorite line. So he goes on there. Now after that, Sell covered us throughout the whole run there, and he's a tremendous ESPN correspondent. He's been doing this for a long time. And what a gentleman.
Sell the next week and he told me put a note in your locker, handwritten note. Yeah, he's great at that. And I learned something from him. And you know when you write things and makes it more personal to somebody. I mean, we live in this world now and especially this was what what at this point nine years ago? No, ten, eight years ago? Well, no, it's nine years ago. Yeah, nine years ago, right, so that was nine years ago.
And you know, we become more distant from each other, right we we we we become you know, antisocial, right, we we communicate. You ever have somebody talking to you, like you're you're texting with somebody and then they call you and then they don't pick up and they text you back. It's like, yo, I'm tired of texting. I'd rather just tell you what I got to say because I'm driving in the damn car. Pick up the phone. Right,
So we we we come more distantly. But you know when Sal writes something and he taught me something, When you write something to somebody because they never see it or get it that way, that information that way, it makes it more personal and it makes you know, and it makes it, you know, people feel more important when you do it like that. Is it like a not to get into what the letter said, but is it like a thank you know, essentially it was just a summary. I believe it just a moment. I think he he
I think he appreciated his raw honesty in a moment. Yeah. Like there are a lot of guys who after the game, they'll give you a process stuff and they'll they'll give you something that was can and that he was just unfiltered being himself. And I think that was very much appreciated from Sell And I think it was appreciated from
Jets fans and a lot of them. I think all football fans other than other than Patriots fans, like appreciated because it was a guy that was vulnerable in the moment, that was basically spilling his heart out and his guts out about what that game meant to not only him but to the organization and to the team as a whole. I agree, you got anything else for the part before
we wrap up. So the next week, Pittsburgh, how much how much did it takes out of you guys win in Indianapolis exercising that demon because before you guys had the lead seventeen six late in the second quarter, you go there, you take care of that. You beat Brady in his house. No team has ever done that, obviously, no team will ever do that again. He's Peyton Manning. That was Peyton Manning's last game as a cult. He wouldn't play the next year, went on to win the
Super Bowl with the Broncos. But where was that team mentally emotionally heading into Pittsburgh because they jumped on you out of the YEA. Yeah, I mean I thought we were ready, and you know, I thought, you know that first drive that ended up in being eighteen plays, Remember we had them in like a third and eighteen. But I think we got too cute because we brought we put a defensive package out there that we've never put out there before. We're basically Jason Taylor playing Mike linebacker
and took all the linebackers off the field. So when Ben ran and you know, not understanding like how to be a linebacker once being broke that we put a lot of young like um dB. We put a lot of dps out there, and it was combo coverages and it was coverage were bending know where to go to ball?
Then you still gotta get bent down. So it's one of those long scrambles and the kind of reset everything and kind of made that first quarter so long, and then it took us maybe a half to be able to come out and we made a game out of it, and we were right there. Should have wanted you know, I think if we just run the ball and stay true to who we were and not got too cute. Uh,
you know, Shotenheimer got a little bit too cute. I feel like, hey, if we're gonna go down with ground and pound, let's take our big fat uh tailback, not not our Hall of Fame tailback. Let's take our big fat tail back, and let's go behind the strength of our team, which is our offensive line. And if they can stop us four times from getting the yard, then, you know, hats off to him. But we got cute through the ball twice when you're on the one yard
line because Sean Green got you down there. I understand LT was the LT where he was a guy that was gonna jump over everybody and getting airborne. So we
tried to sneak in there. I mean, I understand they have Casey Hampton, but you know, we got Nick Mangold and we got uh, we got Brandon Moore right there, and I mean, hell, we should have been able to wedge it there and just run to four quarterback sneaks and think we can get movement with with the type of players that we had right there and be able
to push from behind them. Give Sean Green and and they're one of those linebackers or one of those you know, you know, defensive tackles, keys or whoever stand on there Sean Green, you know, um late in the season, Yeah, he about to seventy. Do you ever think what would have how things would have changed? Oh yeah, change. It would have changed our lives. We would have been would have been immortalized in this town. Uh, we never would
have had to pay for anything. We'd have had a Lombardi Trophy, would have came there as a team that was braggadocious, Uh, said that they're gonna win it, said they didn't want to hear the kiss rings and been able to give one to to them. And I think it would have changed the whole complexion of this organization, you know, because I feel like we would have got into the super Bowl. You know, we had just played the the Green Bay Packers and we we held them
to nine points. I feel like we have been better offensively, been able to got some things figured out, and we'd have been able to be immortalized forever. And I also feel like that team. I grew up in New York, so I feel like that team also just embodied New York by why you said we don't kiss rings and you go and you win. It just feels very feels very unapologetic, unapologize. Y'all won't smoke, We got smoke. What's up? We come here, We ain about throw the ball a
menion times. We're about to beat the hell out of you for four quarters and we we dare you to to continue to take this butt whooping, this physical butt whooping for four quarters. And if you can do it, God bless you. And that was the Official Jets Podcast with part Scott part thanks a lot for coming again. Let's go back to our Greek names. We gotta go back to the Greek names.
