00:00We did NFL football on last night and the question was going to be is, hey, the Jets picked up a

00:04victory against the Cleveland Browns. How will that translate to an early Thursday night game

00:08the following week on the road against New England? Probably exactly what we thought.

00:12The odds makers, Joe, 11 and a half, 12 and a half, 13 and a half, back to 12 and a half.

00:16The game final, 27 to 14 New England Patriots here. Drake May was smooth, 25 of 34, 281,

00:23a touchdown pass, no interceptions and a pass rate of 107.6. The winning streak continues as

00:28it should because you're supposed to beat a Jets team that's really devoid of talent.

00:33The takeaway from this game, New England did exactly what they had to do and they're moving

00:38forward with their season, Joe. Yeah, they are. I mean, it was a heck of a start for the Jets too.

00:45I mean, I didn't have a 17 play touchdown drive to open the game up against that defense,

00:53but that's exactly what we ended up getting there. But no overreaction by New England. They

01:00settled it down there. They kind of stifled them the rest of the way until the second half where

01:05they got one more. But for the most part, it was methodical and they, it felt like New England was

01:11just kind of buying enough time there in order to wait for the Jets to self implode. And, you know,

01:16when you have Justin Fields at 116 yards, passing the ball and the leading rusher, nothing good is

01:23going to happen offensively for the New York Jets. Yeah. Let's hear from Aaron Glenn on the loss of

01:27the Patriots. Can we make this rosy or not? You talk about details and discipline. Yeah.

01:32Penalties or something else? Well, just across the board. I have very high standards for our team in

01:38general. And that's the one thing that we talk about quite a bit. And I will never go away from

01:45those standards and the players know that, and they have bought into that and they know that too.

01:49And when I say details and discipline, again, I'm not just talking about the players. I'm talking

01:53about us as coaches too. We have to make sure that we're on, we're on the same page and we're doing

01:57the things that we have to do to help those guys. So, um, this is not a one-way street where everything

02:03is on the players, you know, coaches is involved in that too. I know you have to watch the film,

02:07but how do you think Justin played overall? Listen, there are some good things. Um, there's some

02:11really good things. I thought he put some balls out there and we got to have some guys that make some

02:14plays for him too. Um, obviously I know for a fact that he's going to say, there's some things that

02:18he could have done better. Uh, again, we do have to watch the tape, but I thought there was some

02:22good things he did out there. Yeah, he did some good things, which means running the football.

02:27Cause he's really a running back at this point. You're not putting your team in the position to

02:31win, but also Joe, we do have to understand this. If you are a Jets fan and you're watching the Jets,

02:36the last thing you want to do is win any football games at this point. So is it smart for the Jets to say,

02:41we're going to really stagnate our offense and know that we can't hit those levels that we need

02:45technically to win unless we get multiple special teams, touchdowns. So I can't fault Aaron Glenn.

02:50If he goes, you know, we can't tank games, you know, we'll get fined by the NFL, but if I continue

02:55to send Justin Fields out there, we're effectively tanking games with not much of a chance to win.

03:00And that's probably what you should be doing anyway. Right.

03:04And just put a, you know, put a positive spin on it, Donnie, because that's all they can do

03:09at this particular point is because they don't have any of the talent. They traded away all their

03:15best players. You got good effort. I mean, back-to-back wins they had, didn't have that either

03:20on the card there, though it was the Browns and the Bengals. But the reality is that any other team

03:28that is 500 or better, the chances of the Jets being competitive in those games are going to be

03:33slim to non-dying.
