The last thing you wanna hear while listening to
0:02
your favorite podcast is another gimmicky
0:04
ad. NJM feels the
0:06
same way. It's why they've provided
0:08
award winning service without the use
0:11
of mascots or repetitive jingles
0:13
for over one hundred years unlike
0:15
just about everyone else. Instead
0:17
of the gimmicks, they'd rather focus on what's
0:19
important, what they can do for you.
0:22
When you apply for an auto home or
0:24
renters policy, and JM
0:26
will work to ensure you get the coverage
0:28
that's right for you. That must be the award
0:30
winning customer service they're known for
0:32
and when you upgrade to MGM, you
0:35
could save on your auto insurance, better
0:37
service, and possible savings? Sounds
0:40
like a win win. No jingles or
0:42
mascots? Just great insurance.

0:49
see how much you could save on your auto
0:51
insurance. We were talking about something,
0:53
ah, yes, February fifteen.
0:55
Yes. February fifteenth is
0:57
the day that the raiders need to
1:00
make a decision on Derek Carr. Either keep them or
1:02
cut them. Everyone knows they're cutting them. They're trying to
1:04
trade them before then. So as much as we've
1:06
talked all week about the jets quarterback situation,
1:08
and Aaron Rogers, and guess there's the reports
1:11
that Joe Douglas is out there telling everybody
1:13
will listen that they're in on Rogers.
1:16
Obviously, Derek Hart, if you didn't see last night,
1:18
at the Skills Competition, he
1:20
put on a show compared to other court. I've actually
1:22
had a real show. He hitting all the targets.
1:25
He looked great apparently. He even made a quip
1:27
at the end of it. They're like, have you ever done this well
1:29
here? He goes, no. That's why I'm getting traded.
1:31
So he's on his way out. But my
1:33
point is, we all
1:35
know what plan a is. Whether whether Joe Douglas
1:37
is saying it's a people, which I doubt he is, I
1:39
think it's pretty clear. Yeah. One of
1:41
the greatest quarterbacks in the NFL's history, in my
1:43
opinion, is on is available, probably.
1:46
He's the number one guy. I think that makes him
1:48
a Super Bowl contender we talked about it all week.
1:51
Part two or choice two really seems
1:53
to be Derek Carr. Yes. I mean, I like him
1:55
better than Grabalo. I mean, obviously,
1:57
you know, Lamar Jackson is sort
1:59
of an option that would be higher than car. Definitely.
2:01
But, really, the most realistic guy who's
2:03
clearly getting moved besides Aaron
2:05
Rogers is Derek Carr. So
2:08
the question is for me, what
2:10
did the Jets do here? You talked about it on your
2:12
show. I heard you talking about it. You don't wanna get
2:14
left the altar. You can't enter back into
2:17
the draft if you're the jets. No. You have to get
2:19
a legitimate franchise, you know,
2:21
starting quarterback, which Derek Carr is
2:23
not on the same levels, maybe some other guys,
2:25
but with the rest of this roster, good
2:28
enough to win. No doubt. Yeah. So he gets
2:30
cut on the fifteenth because I don't know what his trademark
2:32
is gonna be. Knowing this deadline's coming,
2:35
he's gonna get cut on the fifteenth. So you could either
2:37
trade for him and have exclusive rights to work out a
2:39
contract, I guess, or you could
2:41
wait until he gets cut and then come in with the
2:43
money. What
2:45
do the jets do? If they want Rogers,
2:48
yeah, but you don't know you're gonna get them.
2:50
Right? This happens on
2:52
the fifteenth. You have to make a
2:54
move. You can't be the guy left at the
2:56
altar. You can't pass on this. Watch
2:58
him get watch Aaron Rogers get traded to the Raiders
3:01
or to the Tennessee or somewhere else.
3:03
And now you're without car, you're without
3:07
Aaron Rogers, and you're stuck wondering what the
3:09
hell am I gonna do? Jimmy g. You
3:11
know, obviously, Baker Mayfields are
3:13
another level even further down than those
3:16
two, what do you do? So I
3:18
really think if you look at how the jets react
3:20
on the fifteenth with car, and how much
3:22
connection they get to them, you'll have an
3:24
idea of how much they think that Aaron
3:26
Rogers is
3:27
likely. Yep. You're you're not winning a Super Bowl
3:29
of Car you have a shot of winning a Super Bowl
3:31
with Aaron Rogers. Look, jobs are on the line
3:33
here because if you're Joe Douglas, you failed
3:36
with Zach Wilson. Nah. Hardest thing to
3:38
do in all sports is draft a quarterback and a quarterback
3:40
to be great. It's hard. It's impossible at times
3:42
sometimes to predict. Now if Douglas
3:44
brings in a Derek car, a proven
3:46
good quarterback with the young talent they
3:49
have. And they don't win, then Solo
3:51
will be gone. But Douglas could say, you know what?
3:53
Yes. That's Wilson wasn't good. But Carr
3:55
was good. We got to the playoffs and the coach
3:57
failed.
3:57
If you get Aaron Rogers, though, you have a chance
4:00
to win a Super Bowl. It's a weird spot because
4:02
I know the fans, jet
4:03
fans, they want our
4:04
reps to be. But but if
4:06
KAR goes to another team, pick your team, Carolina
4:09
whatever, and Aaron Rogers stays in
4:11
Green Bay. And you're left with
4:13
a baker Mayfield or a Jimmy
4:15
G. You are no luck to make the playoffs.
4:18
And then I don't know what the hell happens because
4:20
now you were left at the altar, you have no
4:22
shadow winning the Super Bowl, you have young
4:24
talent, you have a team that basically had a friggin'
4:26
mutiny against Ag Wilson right it wrong and that's
4:28
on the coach. It puts them in a tricky
4:30
spot here. But if they're all in on Aaron Rogers
4:32
Mac, I think they're all in and they're gonna
4:34
do whatever they can get to get Aaron
4:36
Rogers. And if they lose out on Derek Carr,
4:38
they will go, you know what? Derek Carr is not
4:41
that much better than a baker.
4:43
Than a chimichie, than a taco. don't know.
4:45
That's Well, but I think if they if they make
4:47
that calculation -- Well -- then they're gonna
4:49
say all the eggs in the Rogers
4:51
basket. And if Green Bay says, nah, he's
4:53
staying here or we trade him and he reunites with
4:55
thevante in Vegas.
4:56
Yeah. The
4:57
jets are gonna be looking at a scenario where they're gonna
4:59
have a middling of the world quarterback. Yes.
5:01
Upgrade because anything's better than what they had
5:03
this
5:03
year. But it's not just a slight
5:05
upgrade. I mean, he's he's in that second
5:07
tier of quarterback. What are we talking
5:09
about now? As far as I'm saying, upgrade from the last three
5:11
quarters? No. But I'm saying anybody's an upgrade.
5:13
Even a baker may feel it as an upgrade I wanna say. What
5:15
I'm saying is you're making it, like, car is just another
5:18
upgrade. You know, I think it's a significant
5:20
upgrade. I think it's
5:21
a it makes them a playoff team. don't think it makes them
5:23
a
5:23
super bowl control. I mean, it depends on how good the rest of the world
5:25
is looking at Let's feel I don't think Connor's getting you
5:27
a Super Bowl. No. No. No. No.
5:30
Herts might. What's that? Herts
5:32
might. What is that? What's that supposed to mean? Do you
5:34
think Herts is that much better than Carr? I do.
5:36
Really? Yeah. I actually do. Well, I wasn't always
5:38
a big hurt sky. I I yeah. Even though the judge
5:41
would beat them. Yes. I've always been a hurt
5:43
sky. And I'm
5:43
gonna build the roster now to win that. That's
5:45
another whole organization because obviously
5:48
the Eagles have a better roster than the Jets.
5:50
No doubt. The Jets have building blocks. A lot of teams
5:52
have building
5:52
ball. But you're seeing a team right now in the suit ball.
5:55
You're actually seeing the two dichotomies of it. Really?
5:57
The great quarter back with -- Great. -- probably lesser
5:59
team, although the defensive front you know, got
6:01
after Burrow and won them a game, they have
6:03
talent. They have Andy Reed. They also have a great
6:05
coach. No doubt about it. But the great Do
6:07
they have a Burrow coach? No. Okay.
6:09
I don't think so. I don't I'd be surprised if I
6:11
think there's a small I'm not even sure he's a coach.
6:14
Yeah. I'm not sure either. There's a chance he be he's
6:16
certainly not gonna offense of mine. Aaron Rogers, I think
6:18
I'm looking like a better coach. That's for sure.
6:20
Yeah. And obviously, their offense coordinator
6:22
on Hackett -- Yeah. -- has had history with him that you
6:24
would expect it to be good. But you're almost seeing the dynamic of
6:26
the quarterback. I still think Hertz is average.
6:28
I know we can run. I know he had monster year. No. I
6:30
disagree with that. I don't don't think he's
6:32
that good. I don't think he's that I think he's here because I
6:34
think they're here because the roster's damn
6:36
good. Think he played that well against San Francisco,
6:38
to be honest. He misthrows all over. He
6:40
was not good. He was not good. Well, I agree with that. He was
6:42
not good against the diners. didn't he didn't he didn't do much
6:44
against the Giants. he's had a great deal.
6:46
If the jets have the same opinion that most
6:48
of us seem to have, and most of the people who talk about
6:50
it have, where it's Roger's a
6:53
and Kabi. And then the rest of the field. And
6:55
then the and then it's a step throwing
6:57
Lamar Jackson
6:58
out. I don't think that's
6:58
right. Yeah. I got
6:59
two main yeah. Rogers.
7:01
I see. You got car b,
7:04
and then the field. Yeah. I That
7:06
big step down. Big step down in their role equal.
7:08
If that's how the jets view it. February
7:11
fifteenth is an interesting day. Yeah. Because
7:13
can you afford to pass
7:15
up on b with the hopes of getting
7:17
a. It's a it's a very interesting
7:20
a very interesting conversation. Yeah.
7:21
Because again There's
7:22
gonna be a lot of teams interested in being
7:24
They they're not going I don't think they're going
7:26
to the Super Bowl or winning a Super Bowl with Derek
7:28
Carr. But Derek Carr, did you ability, a quarterback,
7:30
a guy who's made the playoffs, a guy that can win games
7:32
with this roster, with that running injuries. Hall comes
7:34
back, a large player. Tucker comes back. You have
7:36
Garrett Wilson. You have guys on that defense. You
7:39
will be in the playoff mix, no doubt
7:41
about it. But if you're the Jets,
7:43
if you're the Jets fan, it's about winning the Super
7:45
Bowl So I would wonder what the reaction
7:47
from the fans would be is it's like, hey,
7:50
we don't wanna risk it. We don't wanna risk
7:52
it. We know Rogers. Gives us a chance to
7:54
win a Super Bowl. Aaron's getting older. He's not
7:56
getting younger. We're not a lock. The AFC's
7:58
loaded with quarterbacks. Carr gives us
8:00
stability and what car
8:02
is, he's younger.
8:03
Yeah. So you have a younger young
8:05
girl -- Yeah. -- quarterback that you could be at least
8:07
a playoff caliber team
8:09
with a young roster for years to come.
8:11
Counter window.
8:12
But with those quarterbacks in the
8:14
AFC Mac that are loaded with young quarterback's
8:16
-- Yeah. -- Derek Carr is not in the class of any
8:19
of
8:19
them.
8:19
No. You have
8:19
to have a legit roster and
8:22
a big time head coach to get to a
8:24
Super Bowl junkyards. It would be a shorter window,
8:26
but you'd have a legitimate sub bowl contending
8:28
team. In my opinion, I think Aaron Rogers makes them
8:30
legitimate sometimes.
8:31
Rogers. Yes. Yeah. Ross. That's what I'm saying. Home
8:34
alone is is the
8:35
longer window with a longer opportunity, complete
8:37
the roster, make it better for a good enough to
8:39
be a team that could win with KAR
8:41
as opposed to I think you're good enough right now
8:43
with
8:43
Rogers. So and then in two years, you figure
8:45
out another quarterback. Right? Yeah. I I
8:48
But They're
8:48
not near They don't end up with
8:50
either, and that that's a that's a tough way.
8:53
I think we all agree. Iron Rogers
8:55
is the better option for the Jets. No. Those being you
8:57
do. Oh, yeah. But I'm
8:59
afraid of getting I think b
9:02
is so much better than c. I don't
9:04
I think he's I think car is much better than garage
9:06
below. I think car is much better than any
9:08
other option. They have Danny Hill. I don't know.
9:10
Whatever. Even if you think outside the box -- Right.
9:13
-- I just I think it's a clear
9:15
cut a and b. And b is gonna
9:17
be on the market in two
9:19
weeks, not even. What do you do?
9:21
Yeah. And I I've always thought I felt
9:23
like a pipe dream. I think he stayed in Green Bay.
9:25
I can't change that
9:26
field. You gotta be all over them. Yeah. But that's that's
9:28
how I feel. I'm not doing Douglas. That's right. Now apparently,
9:30
if you if you believe the reports that they're all
9:32
in. You know, that Joe Douglas might
9:35
be like, you know what? It's worth it for me. But
9:37
again, Joe Douglas has to get
9:39
this quarterback right. Has to. No. He
9:41
failed. Whichever was a fail. Yeah. You can't
9:43
fail again. You'll be gone. So
9:45
he's got a situation here where
9:47
he's gotta get it right. If he if he
9:49
goes only on Rod, and Roger stays in Green
9:52
Bay, and Karen's up somewhere else, and you end
9:54
up with name the quarterback, Jimmy
9:56
G. Baker and you're not a playoff team.
9:58
Then then I think Woody Johnson's gonna
10:00
go, alright, you guys are gone. The last
