Wow.
Craig Carton (0:03)
Ha ha ha ha.
Chris McMonigle (0:04)
We know the difference.
Craig Carton (0:05)
I guess we do.
Chris McMonigle (0:06)
We do.
Craig Carton (0:07)
I guess we do. We promised you some jet calls. We'll do that right now. Jets are still 7.5 point underdogs against New England Patriots. Half the Patriot roster seems like it's hurt, but you're saying you think Gonzalez is back for this game. Best cornerback in football, some people say. So that obviously is unfortunate for the Jets in the passing game. Which means he's going to guard Garrett Wilson, I assume, right?
Or first came back, do they put him against somebody else? That would be an interesting little coaching session.
Chris McMonigle (0:39)
No, I think if he's back, that they would play him against the best wide receiver.
Craig Carton (0:43)
Even first came back?
Chris McMonigle (0:44)
Yes.
Craig Carton (0:45)
Okay, well look, I believe in Garrett Wilson.
Chris McMonigle (0:47)
I don't think they would put him on the field unless they thought he was fully ready to do that.
Craig Carton (0:50)
You're probably right about that. I don't care who guards G5.
Chris McMonigle (0:53)
No, he's good enough.
Craig Carton (0:54)
G5 could beat anybody.
Chris McMonigle (0:56)
He's arguably the best cornerback in the league.
Craig Carton (0:58)
Yes, he is.
Chris McMonigle (1:00)
He's a badass.
Craig Carton (1:00)
He's getting paid like he's a badass.
Chris McMonigle (1:02)
Well, I mean, he held out and got it. Yeah, he deserves it. And we'll see, AJ. Brown as well could be back into the passing game. Quarterback has found himself over the last couple weeks. They do have a tendency to roll against bad teams. The question is, are the Jets a bad team? Yeah. I mean, because they have rolled last year, so far this year. Like if they, the difference is the Jets have had a good defense.
Last year, the New England Patriots did not play a single top 10 defense the entire season, regular season.
Right? And we saw what they did. Then they went into the playoffs, played better defenses. We saw what they did. The last two weeks, the Bills are at the bottom of the league in defense, put up big numbers.
Raiders bottom of the league defense, they put up big numbers. Jets top five defense. Can the Jets continue on the trend where they dominate bad defenses but struggle against good ones?
Craig Carton (1:50)
They are top five, a full six weeks into the season. Well, five recent to the season, this is week six. George is in Bluefield, New Jersey on the fan. George, how are you, buddy?
George there once twice, three times, the lady riches and scranted on the fan. Rich, how are you? What's up, Rich?
Rich (2:09)
Hey, guys, look at that. I think George got messed up from that question you were asking, like I had before before the break.
Craig Carton (2:15)
Yes.
Rich (2:16)
Married some ugly woman with a lot of money.
Craig Carton (2:18)
Yeah.
Rich (2:23)
But I have a way to get out of it if I did.
Craig Carton (2:25)
Well, there's always a way out, but you're not allowed to get out. That's the point of the question. You're in for a quarter century.
No. You're not.
Rich (2:32)
If you're married to somebody with a lot of money, you know she's going to give you an allowance every now and then. So you tell her, you're going down to casino, which you don't go down to casino, you bury your money.
Craig Carton (2:42)
Again, not allowed to do it. Not allowed to do it.
Chris McMonigle (2:48)
I get my perdita and I bury it in the desert. And then I make a run for it one day when I have enough money buried.
Craig Carton (2:56)
She's sleeping in it. Here's my jet.
Chris McMonigle (2:59)
Cayman Island. She'll never find me there.
Craig Carton (3:03)
You watch the firm too many times.
Rich (3:07)
Listen, here's my jet's question.
Glenn played a phenomenal defensive scheme this past weekend, which is something we've never seen before. I don't know if he did it because of the bad weather, because I don't know if you noticed, he had four of the best defense events in at one time.
Chris McMonigle (3:23)
Yes.
Rich (3:23)
He had McDonald lined up like an inside linebacker, and they're getting sacks all over the place. So I don't know if that would be effective up in New England in good weather.
Craig Carton (3:32)
Well, I'll tell you what. What's interesting about that is, the Cleveland Browns did a lousy job protecting Deshaun Watson last weekend. I think you have to give the Jets credit for that as well. The amount of pressure they put on, where the pressure came from, etc. Obviously, Bailey had the crazy game, etc. The good news for the Jets is that the Patriots offensive line is also not healthy either. Will Campbell is starting to have tackles out for this game. One of the player might be playing, but is banged up. So again, you have seen to his credit, now that he's calling the defense, and as he said, it seemingly is his superpower. The New York Jets defense has played well in every game this year. Now, if there's one game I thought they were weaker at, it was actually the Lions game, not the Bears game. Because the Bears had the ball so long, you could make an argument, well, the Jets didn't do a good enough job getting off the field, but they got turnovers.
