Summary
BT & Sal dissect the Jets' "brutal" and "unwatchable" loss, condemning Brady Cook's erratic quarterback play and the receiver corps' lackluster performance. The upside? The guys pivot to the Jets' improving draft capital, discussing how Daniel Jones's Achilles injury has dramatically boosted the value of the Colts' first-round pick (now projected around #18). Sal argues the Jets must prioritize losing to secure a high-value pick to land their coveted franchise QB, Mendoza (an obvious college football comparison). They debate the scenarios of trading up and the conviction needed to go "all-in" for the right quarterback, even if it means risking massive draft capital.

Listen and follow Free Range with me, Von Miller, wherever you get your podcast. The Giants were off yesterday. I wish the Jets were off yesterday. What the hell was that, BT? That was a tough one. That was one of the few games where the Jetsville, they didn't have a whole lot. |
| 1:29.2 | The Bill's game was like that. The Dallas game was like that. Those are pretty much the only two where it was really, really ugly. I mean, you know, Brady Cook is out there. I don't know what you really expect here. And the Jets, I mean, the Jets don't have a lot of talent on defense. I think we know that. |
| 1:43.2 | You know, there were a couple of plays. I'm not going to waste much time on this. |
| 1:45.8 | The two are backwards pass. The pick six, the Jets almost had, the near interception at midfield. There were a couple of plays where, you know, maybe it could have made it a little bit tighter. Funny thing, though, I actually see it a little different than most Jet fans do. |
| 2:01.9 | I really do. |
| 2:02.9 | The general consensus is, and Aaron said this himself. I was thoroughly out-coached. I was already my bad. I like him taking ownership. I don't fully agree because he's trotting out a bunch of B-level players at this point. But I think if the Jets weren't at least engaged and kind of locked in from a morale point of view, |
| 2:19.6 | you fall behind 21 Zip in the first quarter, you know, eight, nine minutes into the game, you're losing that game 40 to 3. Now, ultimately, at least previous Jet teams would have. Now, they still got waxed, obviously, by the final score, and some of the statistics were absolutely gross. Like, I think the Jets had two first downs at the half. Miami had 14. No, it was gross. Unwatchable for sure. Unwatchable for sure. What I'm saying is like I'm looking for something a little deeper because there's really nothing from the result of the game to tap into to say I believe in this, this, this, this or that. like tangible football stuff. I saw a little effort, you know, just to kind of try to hang around. What does that do? Nothing do much. But I just didn't see a team quit, and I've seen a lot of other jet teams quit. I saw a quarterback in Brady Cook, who is not the, like, there was some thought that, oh, let's see Brady Cook at the end of the year and maybe see what he could do. He is firing darts with no touch or accuracy all over the place yesterday. That was a big strike one. Again, not that he was going to be the answer, but some people thought, hey, let's see what Brady Cook could do. Well, I've seen enough already. That's what I've done? Oh, my God. I can't say that. They dropped a lot of passes. |
| 3:25.5 | I mean, come on, Mitchell, hold on to the Mitchell, Michi, Metchi, Mici, whatever. Even Taylor dropped one. Like, they dropped some pretty good throws. He made mistakes. He also didn't know he was going to start this week. I really hope the tie rod's out. I want to see him get a week of reps |
| 3:38.9 | and at least make my fine |
| 3:40.0 | I can't say that after one day. |
| 3:41.4 | Strong arm just no touch. |
| 3:42.3 | He does have a good arm. |
| 3:43.2 | He does. |
| 3:43.9 | No touch whatsoever. |
| 3:44.2 | He's firing bullets. rod's out. I want to see him get a week of reps and at least make my fine. Like, I can't say that after one day. Strong arm, just no touch. He does have a good arm. He does. He does. He was the other part of it. These receivers, they stink. I don't want to hear about A.D. Mitchell and, oh, he could be great in the number. He stinks. Whether it's the route running the hands. Oh my God. He dropped some passes you should have had you. |
