Transcript
00:00You know, Matt, the line is what it was, you know, a lot of smart people really thought
00:07the Jets would keep this close, maybe even win the game.
00:09And then you open up with McCaffrey being out and you thought, wow, like this could
00:13be legit.
00:14Jets could win.
00:15Uh, you know, Jets score a touchdown.
00:16You see Rogers throwing a ball, Wilson, you're feeling like, okay, they're going to stay
00:20in the game.
00:21And then my gosh, the second half, they just got torn apart on the ground.
00:25Yeah, they did.
00:27You know, I think that if you're a Jets fan, you can look at some positives, which was,
00:32you know, we mostly held them to field goals against most teams, field goals.
00:37If you hold teams to field goals, you're going to win the game, but you can't give up six
00:41mixed with a couple of touchdowns.
00:44And so from that standpoint, it was a little bit mixed.
00:49You know, you're not going to play one of the best teams in the NFL every week.
00:52And there's no doubt that the 49ers are one of, you know, to me, one of the three best
00:58teams in the NFL, certainly one of the top five, and that made it tough.
01:01You're playing on the road.
01:02It's your quarterback's first game in a year.
01:05So there was definitely a lot of things working against the Jets, but you thought the defense
01:09would be there.
01:10You thought the defense would travel.
01:12I think we saw all week that defense was ahead of offense, which isn't, you know, unusual
01:17for early in a season like this, week one, especially.
01:20So mixed bag, I think ultimately you're disappointed.
01:24But at the same time, you lost on the road to the 49ers.
01:28You were expected to lose this game.
01:30You're 0-1.
01:31That's the big thing that matters, and you kind of move on and you just try to improve.
01:36So some positives, some negatives.
01:40But if you're a Jets fan, like I said, you were supposed to lose this game.
01:44You had this one circled with an L on it, and now you can move on.
