Nightcap Hour 3: Patriots TOP Jets + Steelers WIN in OT vs Bucs + Titans UPSET Colts + Mike Tyson of the NFL

Shannon Sharpe (0:00)

The Patriots defeated the Jets 26-19.

AJ struggled in the return. Three receptions, 27 yards, had a career high, three drops. Here's AJ after the game.

Gilbert Arenas (0:14)

I'm all good, you know, again, no matter whatever question you guys ask, I'm gonna tell you guys, there's no excuses, you know. I stacked my guy, should have made the play. I beat my guy on third down, I should have made the play. So, angle or not, you know, I make all those plays. A short week, you know, just trying to just get going again and best foot forward, you know, move, put this to bed really fast, you know, I'm gonna watch the tape, I'm gonna watch the tape and it's over, I'm gonna flush.

Shannon Sharpe (0:45)

It's tough, man. Coming back off of injury, all these expectations. Yeah.

You know, I was tired of being in Philly, I wasn't getting opportunities, not you. And it always works out like this, Ocho, we talk about it all the time. Yes, sir. You're gonna get opportunities. And then he thought Drake may throw it to him, he threw it back at Drake May. And the old side kick came in his way and he bobbled that. Yeah.

It was just one of those days, like when you drop it, if you're not careful, if you're not really, really strong.

Chad Johnson (1:12)

Yeah.

It'll mess with you. The next one, it'll mess with you. And I'm one of those two, I could be honest, as confident as I was going into games, as confident as I was when it came to my opponents being fun and being entertaining. My one weakness, Joe, and I could be honest now, cause I ain't playing no more, is when I drop a ball, I go into a shell. I go into a shell and I don't feel comfortable until I touch it again. Or when I do touch it again, I bobble it. And I don't feel like myself. For some reason, that was one of my weak spots or one of my weaknesses in general as a receiver, is I lose all confidence once I have a drop.

Shannon Sharpe (1:54)

Cause you're trying too hard. You're trying to make up for that one mistake.

Gilbert Arenas (1:57)

Oh yeah.

Shannon Sharpe (1:58)

You know what I'm saying? Then they start to compound. You know what I mean?

Gilbert Arenas (2:02)

Yeah.

Shannon Sharpe (2:04)

Despite AJ's lack of reduction, Drake May had it going since week four. Three touchdowns, zero interceptions. Four touchdowns, zero interceptions. Today, three touchdowns. One interception. I mean he had one interception in his last three games with 10 touchdowns. He's the first quarterback with three passing touchdowns in three straight games since Tom Brady did it in 2007

Chad Johnson (2:29)

Oh yeah.

Shannon Sharpe (2:30)

I mean 2017, excuse me. Ocho, I think about it. You're going to be so like, oh man, you threw for four touchdowns today. Oh man, Brady did that like five times in a row. Man, you threw for three touchdowns, three straight games. Man, Brady look like your quarterback, you playing behind that. What record you going to have?

Chad Johnson (2:47)

Hey, none, none, those are big shoes to fill. Big shoes to fill, and the fact and the bad thing about being the quarterback of the New England Patriots where Tom Brady played is boy, the comparisons you gonna have to get, or the comparisons that you will get, because he is the standard of quarterback play for that team. Hell, he's the standard for quarterback play regards to what team you play for.

Shannon Sharpe (3:15)

Yes, you hear Patrick Mahal. But to be mentioned in the same breath as a Tom Brady, bro, that has a way heavy for the young man because he did. He had great production today on the Ocho.

You hear Patrick Mahal because he told me he had tied, he tied Tom Brady for the fastest 100 wins. He's like, well damn, when did he lose his next game? Because we've been at 90, we've been even ever since, and it seems like here we are now, and we still tied, damn.

Gilbert Arenas (3:46)

Did he lose any games?

Shannon Sharpe (3:48)

Yeah. That's funny. He didn't lose many, he didn't lose many, Mahal boy. But no, Drake has turned it around. Yes. Guess what?

A clean game that kept him up right.

Chad Johnson (4:05)

But that's good. He needed that on.

Shannon Sharpe (4:07)

He did.

Chad Johnson (4:08)

This back to back weeks, huh?

Shannon Sharpe (4:11)

Yep.

Chad Johnson (4:11)

And he looked bad. He looked bad at the beginning of the season. He had two, what, two, three weeks in a row.
