Hey everyone, it's Boomer and Gio, and if you're into New York sports or you want straight talk about what's really going on in the sports world, Boomer and Geo is your show.

We're covering it all. Yankees wins, Giants drama, national headlines, and whatever chaos the day brings on the field and all.

No filler, no filters, just real conversation and believe me, plenty of laughs every weekday morning.

We don't hold back and we don't waste your time. We get to what actually matters. That's boomer and geo, and you can listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your pods. Right now, we're going to talk about the New York Jets. I can't believe it. Football is here at BT tonight. I'm so pumped. Me too, NFL. You got the Cowboys and Eagles tonight.

Obviously, Jets on Sunday take it on the Steelers to help us break down that game. We welcome in right now the color analyst for Jets Radio and former Jet Tighten. Anthony backed. Anthony, how are you ahead of this

week one game? Awesome, brother. BT South, great to be on, man. Yeah, and look, we obviously know the big news with the Jets, unfortunately, a negative thing before we even get started. So let's start there with Tucker, who officially, and we talked about yesterday, BT. He's obviously officially out for the year, going to have that surgery, triceps torn there. How big of a blow, Ann, is this for the Jets? Yeah, I mean, you know, he's voted a captain.

I think this is kind of a recurring theme with him, unfortunately,

is these injuries that randomly come up for him.

And it's unfortunate, you know, wherever it happened, you know,

individual drill or whatever, it's not great.

I will say this, though.

I mean, when you look at what they have, they did go get Josh Myers, who I think they got as an extremely discounted player for a guy that started for the last three, four years in Minnesota. And you can slide Titman over. They want to use Newman. He's got a little bit of experience. Obviously, I'm almost assuming that

Titman's going to slide over, but is it drastic? Is it terrible? It does kill your depth a little

bit, obviously, because you've got to move guys around. But yeah, he's a key component, a key player.

But I don't think there's a massive drop-off with another guy, especially when you have a

quarterback that's as mobile as Fields is.

It does help guys play a little bit better and takes away from what that one-on-one block looks like throughout the season. All right, so I wanted to give you a chance to hit the AVT stuff. I want to take a step back, though, Anthony. I want to take you to the year that you were drafted. Jets had four first round picks. We all know who they were. and you come in

and the Jets are already a good team.

Now the year before,

you came $99. The Jets had four first round picks. We all know who they were. And you come in and the Jets are already a good team.

Now, the year before you came, 99, Vittie blows out as Achilles, obviously 98, two years before that, they're knocking on the door to the Super Bowl.

So you show up and the culture's there. And you know when there's a good culture and you know when there's not.
