Summary

A bold statement from Aaron Glenn sends shockwaves through the show as the idea of Geno Smith leading the Jets to the “promised land” ignites frustration, disbelief, and plenty of debate. What does that actually mean for the franchise right now, and is it confidence or delusion? The conversation quickly spirals into a bigger discussion about the Jets’ direction, their identity, and whether fans should buy into the vision being sold. At the same time, the debate over Anthony Richardson adds another layer of intrigue, with arguments over potential versus proven production, work ethic, and whether a change of scenery could unlock something new. The hosts clash over whether taking a gamble on a young quarterback makes sense for a team already full of uncertainty, while also questioning how the Jets should approach the future at the position.

0:00.0	You heard from John Harbaugh and you heard from Darren Mucci. Today, you're hearing from Aaron Glenn.
0:05.6	And there's a few things that jumped out at me, a few things that made my brain start to work.
0:10.5	I put a couple of things together.
0:12.5	And I believe that Tiki Barber is going to come around on something that in the past he's disagreed with me.
0:18.9	Okay. Okay. I want to start off by playing.
0:22.8	Can you please, Sean Paul, Darren Mugi number three?
0:27.2	Because in this little conversation, Darren, the GM of the New York football Jets,
0:31.9	Darrell, Mr. Smiles Muji, was asked about adding another quarterback to the room.
0:37.0	Because currently Gino Smith is here, but they've got Brady Cook and the other guy. I already forgot who it is. Yeah, we feel good about the quarterback room, but could potentially add another guy to the room before the draft. We'll see where that goes. But we'll monitor that quarterback market and, yeah, to see where we're in. So he's open to adding another quarterback to the room. Okay? Bailey Zappy. Which makes sense. Bailey, I forget. Bottom line is Bailey and Brady Cook will not be the backup, the Gino Smith. No. So they're open to adding a vet. Before we get to the draft, because I think that doesn't have to be connected
1:10.9	to what I'm about to say. Yeah. And if they don't take Ty Simpson, they're likely to take
1:15.8	somebody else who falls. Right. They'll probably take a young quarterback. I don't think that
1:20.7	young quarterback necessarily needs to be the backup. Like he could be the third string quarterback
1:24.7	at the Giants planned with Jackson Dart. So I continue to think that the perfect guy they should add,
1:31.4	especially since they've already told you,
1:33.5	Gino's the guy,
1:34.7	means you can bring a little project in.
1:36.8	You can bring someone in who's not even going to compete for the quarterback job
1:40.7	as much as I would want to.
1:42.1	And yesterday, there was conversations about this guy because this guy asked for a trade.
1:46.6	And the guy I'm talking about is yes, Anthony Richardson.
1:50.6	Don't you think, and I know you're down on him and you didn't like him when I put him
1:54.7	atop my Jets quarterback big board.
