Oh my goodness, good morning, good afternoon, whatever it is for you I hope you're having a fantastic day.

My name is Zach Schomler, This is Strong Opinion Sports episode 556. I'm realizing now my phone is not on Do Not Disturb and so I don't want anyone to call me. I'm turning it on right now.

Welcome in. Last night was kind of a special occasion. You know, had our first football game of the year,

Hall of fan game, pre-season game, not, you could call it not real football, I guess, for lack of a better term,

but it was still football it was

still oh it was awesome I missed watching football live I got some salt and vinegar

wings I made a whole special occasion of it after football. I watched an episode of

the new season of Justified like life is good man. Last night was a glorious

glorious night for me watching football having wings watching a show I love what a great time I

want to talk about the Hall of Fame game I won't spend a lot of time on it because I

know that the people that want to hear about it want to hear about it and the people

that don't don't care.

So we'll talk briefly about what happened and a little bit of stuff

and then kind of move on and do the meat and potatoes of the show.

First of all, I'm just, I was so happy to have football in general yesterday. I was like, ah,

hallelujah, and it's pre-season but it's still football. There were some drop punts,

there were illegal formations. It's ugly messy backups playing football. It's not perfect

The Browns beat the Jets 21 to 16 and the surprise of the game in my opinion

The how do I say this it was unexpected but it made me very happy is that

Zach Wilson the Jets quarterback plate is the Jets backup quarterback was their

starting quarterback viewed as their franchise quarterback once upon a time got

benched now he's the backup
