Matthew in Manhattan. What's going on, Matthew?

1:11.1

Hey, I'm fired up about the Jets. I think there'll be one of the four teams to be excited about coming into an October. All right. So you think it's going to be the Jets. So like of all the four teams that we're talking about now, Mets, Yankees, Jets, Giants. You think in October we're going to be, the Jets will be the most positive story out of the four. I think so. And I think that's all due to accountability and the new head coach. He brings up fresh air. I think the players are going to be playing for him. And I like what he sees. It's a new culture. None of this, you know, Robert Seller and Joe Douglas. Matthew, I've been a fan for a long. I'll tell you this. And I hope you're right, and I do like what I've seen so far. There's no doubt. But it also does sound a lot like the way Joe Judge sounded when he came in. Accountability, going to be tough. You're going to do it my way. We're going to clean up this locker room, and it didn't work out so well for him. I do hope now this is different. I do think it's different. We will see. The proof will be if they can win some games. But just because a guy comes in stern coming off a coach who seemed like a player's coach doesn't mean it's an automatic. That's all I would say.

1:17.6

And also, the thing that Aaron Glenn has going for him is like what we've been talking about with expectations going into a season is that they could be a positive story with a losing record.

1:23.1

Agreed. The Giants can't be because unless Jackson Darts playing early, but he's not going to be playing early.

1:28.8

But couldn't you, if the defense is good and they're just not winning because the offense isn't great and you got Jackson Dart and waiting, couldn't you see a similar scenario to where they're building something and they've got their quarterback in the future and waiting?

1:43.3

Well, not having seen him in regular season games, the answer would be no.

1:48.2

The only way that I think that you could feel good about the Giants and where they're going with

1:52.2

a losing record is if Jackson Dart is playing and playing well.

1:56.0

But if they're losing games of Russell Wilson and James Winston and they can't score,

2:00.8

even if their

2:01.1

defense is good, then it's just, there's just nothing positive about that.

2:04.6

I mean, this is also like a season.

2:07.9

I just, the way that John Mara spoke at the end of the year, you know, set the tone for this

2:13.2

season.

2:14.1

And if they don't get significantly better, you know, they're done.

2:19.6

And then we have this whole situation that you try to avoid with a rookie quarterback

2:23.4

where he's changing offenses, two different offenses and two years.

2:28.6

So it's, this is critical.

2:30.9

I mean, this is, this season and the giant success is also critical to the development of Jackson Dart.

2:35.8

No question.

2:36.6

No, because the last thing you want to do is have the cycle repeat itself from what we've seen over the last seven, eight years.

2:42.1

And that's been a major problem.
