00:00I have no guttural or emotional reaction to Sam Darnold getting to the Super Bowl.
00:06That is not a Jet story.
00:07If anything, it's a Minnesota Vikings story.
00:10The guy won 14 games for you last year, and you cut him loose.
00:14I don't know why people are asking Jet fans about,
00:16how does it feel to have Sam Darnold in the Super Bowl?
00:19I don't feel anything.
00:21I have no feelings whatsoever about Sam Darnold.
00:24I don't hate Sam Darnold.
00:25I don't like Sam Darnold.
00:27I respect Sam Darnold.
00:28But go talk to a Minnesota Vikings fan who won 14 games last year
00:33and decided to cut him loose for J.J. McCarthy.
00:36Those are the people that should be pissed off today at their organization
00:40for letting a Super Bowl quarterback go.
00:43But that's not even my focus today.
00:45My focus today is on two guys who many, most people, people like Tyrone,
00:51love the NFL and cover the NFL, have told me time and time and time and time again,
00:57that's the greatest coach in football.
00:59That's one of the greatest coaches in football.
01:02The reason that the Denver Broncos are not in the Super Bowl,
01:06the reason that the LA Rams are not in the Super Bowl is because of coaching.
01:11Because up 7-0 in a game where points are going to be a premium,
01:15even before the weather came in,
01:17Sean Payton decided not to take a field goal and go up 10-0.
01:21Correct or not correct? Go.
01:22Completely correct. It was a huge mistake in real time.
01:27It wasn't a hindsight situation in real time.
01:29I know for a fact, even you, Craig, during the game were saying,
01:32you got to take the points there.
01:34Got to take the points. Go up two scores.
01:36Yeah, your defense is badass.
01:38Drake Mays is not a good quarterback.
01:40I know he's going to be remembered as, you know,
01:41the second youngest guy to take his team to a Super Bowl.
01:44And Patriots fans are convinced that they've got the second coming of Tom Brady.
01:49But if you look at it fairly and honestly and factually,
01:53Drake Mays threw for less than 100 yards.
01:56You're not in the Super Bowl because Drake Mays played well.
01:59Drake Mays had one good play.
02:01And there's the play that he did on his own.
02:03The scramble to his left to get the first down that effectively ended the game.
02:09I give him a lot of credit for that.
02:11But I'm going to have a parade for a guy that threw for 88 yards
02:15in an AFC championship game?
02:17No, sir. I'm not.
02:19Sean Payton cost them the game.
02:22The Broncos defense cost them the game.
02:25First drive in the second half.
02:27What happened?
02:28Nine-minute drive for the only points of the second half?
02:31Where's that great defense?
02:33Where's the blitz?
02:34Where's something you can't get off the freaking field?
02:38Right?
02:39That's absolutely right.
02:40Sean Payton.
02:42Sean Payton, my ass.
02:43And now I believe he's 1-3 in conference championship games at home.
02:48At home, 1-3.
02:49That's not a very good – that's obviously a bad record.
02:52But if he was a truly great coach the way people say,
02:56you have to win the games in your building.
02:59Yeah, and by the way, I know they're going to say,
03:02no, our defense was great.
03:03We only gave up 10 points.
03:04You gave up a nine-minute drive.
03:08You shortened the game for the Patriots is all you did.
03:12And then you made it harder for a guy that hasn't thrown a pass
03:15in two and a half years to actually lead the team on some type of drive
03:19that could tie and win the game.
03:20Sean Payton is the reason that the Denver Broncos are not going to the Super Bowl.
03:25At $16 million a year, Sean Payton is the reason the Denver Broncos.
03:32You're not going to blame it on Stidham.
03:33You're not going to blame it on the running game.
03:35You're not going to blame it on Mims.
03:37You're blaming it on one guy, and that guy is Sean Payton,
03:40which brings me, of course, to the other coach I mentioned right there.
03:43Now, people say, oh, McVay.
03:44Oh, McVay.
03:44McVay's the best.
03:45Oh, man, the McVay tree.
03:47Oh, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
03:49Right?
03:50So, here's the situation.
03:5213-10, 1-09 to go in the first half.
03:56You know Seattle gets the ball to start the second half.
04:00At this point of the game, the more important thing is to make sure
04:04that you get the clock to 0-0-0.
04:07If you score, obviously great, but if you don't score,
04:10you cannot give Seattle an opportunity to double dip,
04:14to score at the end of the first half,
04:16and then to score again, first possession of the third quarter.
04:20Second and five, 1-09 to go.
04:24Incomplete pass.
04:25They don't have to use a timeout.
04:27Clock stops.
04:28Third down.
04:29Incomplete pass.
04:31They don't have to use a timeout.
04:32Clock stops.
04:33Punt.
04:34And in 74 seconds, the Seattle Seahawks go right down the field.
04:39Six plays, 74 yards, touchdown,
04:42and now you're chasing double digits the rest of the second half.
04:46Moronic.
04:47Moronic.
04:48From a guy who's supposed to be a great head coach.
