00:00Let's go overseas, and if you're a Jets fan, maybe you say my football team should stay overseas.

00:06Or at least the head coach should stay overseas.

00:08Here's Aaron Glenn talking about yet another debacle.

00:11AJ, I understand you probably want to watch the film, but Justice's numbers are not good for this game.

00:18Is he going to be your quarterback next week, or would you consider?

00:21What kind of question is that?

00:23He did not have a good game. I mean, I think it's a fair question.

00:25There's a number of guys that, you know, I mean, sometimes this league is like this, and there are guys that have bad games.

00:31That doesn't mean you just bench them. Come on, you know better than that.

00:35Now, this is coming from a guy that had a punt return to drop a punt and actually cut the guy.

00:40So, what is he talking about if you don't have a bad game, you don't just bench guys?

00:42What message is he sending out here, Joe?

00:46I have no idea. I have no idea why it was clear when you had a quarterback that has minus 10 net yards,

00:54gets sacked nine times because he holds on to the ball too long.

00:58I have no idea why you think that's a terrible question.

01:02What I want to know is, in a one-score game, when clearly the offense was struggling,

01:09why didn't you bring in Tyrod Taylor?

01:11Why not mix it up? Why not bench him and go to the bullpen?

01:15You're acting like this has been your number one pick.

01:18You're invested.

01:19You paid the guy $20 million to get $20 million too much, as far as I'm concerned.

01:24But it's not like you're indebted to him or you have to follow through with him.

01:30Like, what are we doing?

01:31Try to win the damn game by bringing in a quarterback that can actually throw the ball.

01:35I don't know what he's doing.

01:36I don't know what the loyalty to Fields is here and why you thought he gave you the best shot

01:42at winning that game without going to the bench.

01:44It's incredible the way that game played out, Joe, because you're right.

01:48Did you know, people, they had the lead in the fourth quarter with absolutely zero offense.

01:53So if I go and plug in a quarterback who might be able to just pick up a few first downs

01:56and run the clock, you win that football game.

01:59And understand this.

02:00I'm not really a Justin Fields hater, but it's kind of funny when you saw him in Chicago

02:04and the odds makers would be like, yeah, he's a starting quarterback, 130 on his passing yards.

02:09You're like, he's not a rookie anymore.

02:10And an NFL quarterback who's like over under is between 140 and 130.

02:15That's embarrassing.

02:16There is a reason why he went to Pittsburgh.

02:18Hey, he was winning games early.

02:20Not because of him.

02:21That's why they went to Russell Wilson, because Justin Fields can't pass.

02:24Then he comes to the Jets and he shows you exactly what he is in big moments here.

02:28He's not a quarterback.

02:29He's an unbelievable athlete.

02:31If you use him, Joe, in like a Cam Newton way, you know what?

02:34You're not our starting quarterback, but I have packages for you on the goal line.

02:37You're a dynamic runner, an unbelievable athlete.

02:39He has a place in the NFL, and I keep tweeting out every week.

02:42Listen to me on this.

02:44Justin Fields as a tight end or a flex wide receiver tight end would be an amazing specimen

02:50to get the football to in open space and also make dynamic plays downfield

02:54because he's tall, he's athletic, and he's a big body.

02:57End the experiment.

02:58He's not your franchise quarterback.

03:00But, Joe, I don't hate on the guy enough.

03:02He has a place in the NFL.

03:04He's not a quarterback.

03:06Yeah.

03:06He's not a quarterback.

03:08He's not a starting quarterback.

03:09You ask every executive in the NFL, they all said the same thing.

03:15I don't know what you're paying $20 million to a backup quarterback.

03:18I know.

03:19Yeah, Donnie, not for nothing here, but wasn't Jackson Dart available when the Jets were picking?

03:27Instead, they went with an offensive lineman who still can't block anybody being sacked nine times.

03:32I don't know what they're doing.

03:34And the make matters worse is now the Giants have two rookies that are going to elevate that franchise.

03:41You could have had both of them, and the Jets instead had opted for none of them.

03:45And that is the New York Jet way.

03:48That's the problem.
