Transcript
- 0:00Back to the Jets, we were talking about Zach Wilson. Is there any
- 0:04I mean, doesn't look like there's any interest in this guy. Is this
- 0:08a situation where the Jets just can't find interest. Maybe he's, you know,
- 0:13since this contract all the way through and then he's done in the league.
- 0:16Or is there a place for reboot. I mean, you're talking about
- 0:18a guy that was a first round pick right now, he'll get another chance.
- 0:22It's just no one's gonna gonna get What people are gonna look at is
- 0:27get him on the chief, let him get released, whatever that point is,
- 0:30and then we'll bring him in because yeah, he does have ability.
- 0:33I did something on Landry football dot Com chief blug. I know, I
- 0:36apologize, but about how the biggest problem is how quarterbacks are raised in the
- 0:42league. Yes, there's some guys that are misevaluated, but it's really about
- 0:48the quarterback position, the ultimate developmental position. If you're not developed correctly,
- 0:54and you and I know everybody, hey put him on the field, got
- 0:57to play, give him a package and you go. And the owners are
- 1:00saying that because they're fan base just standing. You look at the ones that
- 1:03are successful. They're successful because teams are patient with him and let them learn.
- 1:10Do you think Jordan Love everyone saw my Jordan Love and the Packers look
- 1:14out and maybe they're they're one of the top three in the NFC. We
- 1:18don't know that, But what I can tell you is you think Jordan Love
- 1:22would have been nearly as good in the first year in Green Bay. Sitting
- 1:26helped. It does help. It takes the pressure off, but it allows
- 1:32them to learn without being thrown into the deep water. And I mean,
- 1:36look, teach them the strokes and work your way to the deep word.
- 1:40It's how we raise quarterbacks that's the problem. And Zach was definitely over graded
- 1:47and overdrafted. But because of it, Oh yeah, let's throw them in
- 1:51and let's let them be our savior. Are you kidding me? There's no
- 1:53way. I'm not saying that you put them in a different environment, he's
- 1:59going to flourish. I'm just saying that I wouldn't give up on the guy.
- 2:01You've got to rebuild his confidence because he's lost. That doesn't have any
- 2:05at this point. But I think that in a better situation, we see
- 2:09guys become a little bit better. Down the road, he could be one
- 2:14of them.
