| 0:00.0 | I actually thought we would come in and talk about the Knicks from last night, but then I find out that the Jets put Justin Fields on IR and football is king right now. So we will get to the Knicks in a little while. But, you know, I had this thought, a couple on the Giants, but this one on the Jets. As we've looked back, there's been a lot that's gone wrong with this team this year. And we talked a lot about the Jets yesterday and we'll continue to as the season is coming |
| 0:21.7 | to a close sooner rather than later, thankfully. |
| 0:25.6 | Did it all go wrong with that decision at quarterback? |
| 0:29.4 | With Jester Fields? |
| 0:30.2 | Yeah, meaning, you know, when the Jets first signed him and I understood why they |

| 1:20.0 | We're going to wrap. |
| 1:23.4 | We're going to make sure what he can do well. |
| 1:24.9 | We're going to kind of elevate that. |
| 1:25.9 | And it never happened. |
| 1:31.8 | And I think the biggest issue with, you know, Justin Fields is he just never quite got right. |
| 1:34.0 | His mechanics continued to be an issue. |
| 1:35.2 | He was always late with the football. |
| 1:38.6 | And his biggest skill set was his legs. |
