Jets are reportedly set to interview Ron Rivera and Rex Ryan for the head coach and vacancy and the Jets. Oh Joe, who would be the rep better fit? I'm biased. So don't ask me. So you, you don't like Rex going back.

No, but I'm saying I know Rex sexy Rexxy Rex, he was on the staff in Baltimore. His dad came and worked me out when I was at the Broncos, not the Broncos, when I was in Savannah State, Ocho. Buddy, his dad, rest his soul, came and worked me out. He said, son, I've watched the tape. He says, we're going to take a bunch of receivers. Right. He said, we're going to put all the ass in the bag and the

best ones are going to play. That what he told me. I like that. He drafted all those receivers that I remembered him telling me. He's like, is that after he said, we took a bunch of receivers, but none of them was you. They took a Fred Barb net. They took, uh, I think Calvin Williams, Mike Bellamy. It took like four receivers, Ocho.

Know what I'm saying, Shannon Sharp. Ooh, and that's motivating. Oh yeah. That is motivating in itself. Who you like best, Ocho? You like Ron Rebelle or you like Rex Ryan? I like Rex. I like Rex.

I don't think Ron has the right. And personality is not the right word to use. He does. He just doesn't fit the New York atmosphere. The New York meter. I mean, he knows, he knows, uh, he definitely knows, he definitely knows how to talk to the media. He has the personality.

He's charismatic. Yeah. Ron Rivera. He just doesn't media. He has the personality. He's charismatic. Yeah, Ron Rivera, he just doesn't fit. He just doesn't fit. I mean, good coach. He just doesn't fit in that atmosphere. I don't think that's what they need. So you like Ron. I mean, you like-

I like Rex. Yeah, I like Rex to go back. Especially, Rex is a defensive mind as well too, right? Yeah. We definitely have the defense playing well, but let me ask you this. What are you doing with, who, who are you bringing in as offensive coordinator

and what are you doing with the quarterback? And that's, see, that's the scary part. So it doesn't matter. You switch coaches. If you don't have nobody at the helm that can be able to get the ball and deliver that thing It ain't no point It ain't no point you signed you signed yourself up for suicide basically Which is not gonna be able to compete. We don't have a quarterback

true So cuz I don't believe I don't believe the ground and pound that he employed with Mark Sanchez and running the football with Thomas Jones And those guys and playing outstanding defense on choke You can't win like that. Yeah, no, you can't about they're gonna force your quarterback to make plays. They just do They just do yeah And it used to be if you brought your your run game and a defense because running game and defense travels Not anymore. Oh Joe, it's still a travel, but they're gonna make your quarterback make some plays. It's really that simple, right? They go make it make plays and he's got to be able to make those plays. Yeah, Joe Yeah, there's been speculation that the Raiders co co-owner Tom Brady really like Brian Flores as a potential head coaching candidate

Flores has done damage some amazing things with the bikes. Remember He he was the defensive coordinator when they won the Super Bowl against the Rams, right? In Atlanta? And then he got the head coaching job at Miami. Okay. He was a linebacker's coach? When did he become the DC?

He was never the DC? Okay. So he was a linebacker's coach? When did he become the DC? He was never the DC? Okay. So he was the linebacker's coach that got the job, okay? Cause Patricia was the DC. Okay. You like that? You like Brian Flores to be a Vikes? Absolutely.

Absolutely. Now listen, I think Brian Flores and what he was able to do with the Vikings defense, obviously the personnel and the talent and skill level may be a little different, a little bit more upside when it comes to the Vikings defense, but I think it would be good. I think he'd be a good fit. I don't like the fact that they're firing and getting rid of AP when AP hasn't had a chance because he's been going through a goddamn quarterback carousel and got damn married around a quarterback. So it and a goddamn mega round of quarterbacks.

So it was hard to be able to get in. I said all the time, you can't compete unless you got a quarterback. None, zero, there's zero chance. You can't, you can't. And he hasn't had the chance or opportunity. Who do you have, Ocho? He had Jimmy G, he had Gardner, Menchu, Aiden O'Connell.

Aiden O'Connell. Was anybody else, who? Was anybody else there? Those are the main three that I do remember. No disrespect to them. No disrespect to them. But you know, we talk about tier two, tier three quarterbacks. What am I supposed to do with that? Nothing you can't do.

You give me chicken poops and say make me some chicken salad and I need it to be yummy. You're right. I mean, I like Ryan Flores. I think he, I think he's done a great job of rehabilitating himself, uh, because all the things that were coming out with weren't favorable, you hear two of say things, you hear Ryan Fitzpatrick say things. There are some other people that have come out and said some things, but look at the end of the day, Brian, if I would tell all I will say is this be you.

Yeah. You're not coach Bellow chain. And I think that is the one mistake all the coaches under that tree has made. He made, yeah. Trying to be coach double check. Right. Yeah. That way of coaching wouldn't work in this area anyway.

If you look at, look at the guys that come out of Mike Shanahan, I'll be Kyle Shanahan Street. Sean McVey is Sean McVey. Matt LaFleur is Matt LaFleur. Kevin O'Connell is Kevin O'Connell. Mike McDaniel is Mike McDaniel. Nobody try to be like him. I don't know why when that's not your personality.

When they look up there and they hear you sounding like Coach Villachick, but they're like you Brian Flores. You Matt Patricia. You Josh McDaniel You bill O'Brien you Charlie white you Romeo Purnell. You're not him Why try to be him? So that would be my advice to him I hope he gets another opportunity Normally the second time around is better than the first. Or she got, you know, and where you go is very important, but you have some pieces you get to work with over that.

Jack Jones, Max Crosby, and then you got some other young. You got Christian Wilkins. Yeah, yeah. You got Rock Bowers. You gotta get a quarterback. You gotta get a quarterback. And they got a lot of,

they got, well how much cap space do the Ra Raiders now Raiders got a lot of cap space now They're gonna have a little dead cap space on there with our Devante Adams dealing him They're gonna have a little dead cap space, but oh sure. That's it. They got money. They gotta spend it Yeah, I mean listen, you don't want to spit on anything Raiders got the second most cap money to spin on Joe Hey, that's a beautiful thing, but you don't just want to spend on anything. You want to spend on the right thing. Oh, for sure. Oh, for sure.

But all I know is this. Josh McDaniels has been the head coach of two teams and he's left them worse off than when he found him. He's with the Broncos and he was terrible. He was awful. I think they feel the same way about him at the ratings. Right. Ah, that's messed up, man. Listen, I'm surprised.

Would I be surprised if he's not the head, the office coordinator at North Carolina? I wouldn't be. Would you be shocked if he followed Coach Belichick to UMC? I would not. That's a good one. That's a good matter of fact. I'm an man's bill. I'm a man's bill. If you want me if you let me in turn rumor packs could move on for Jared Mayo and for Mike Brayboy.

Mike Brayboy has a consulting gig with the Browns that ended. What do you believe? Jared male, your odd male has gotten a fair shake on you. It's absolutely not fair. Absolutely not fair. Hey, come on, man. Give coach. I mean, you do realize that three year grace period. How many games have the Patriots won?

Three, three three three thirteen? We're in our We have three and thirteen told you better change was five and eleven his first season, right? And he was about to go worse than that until that faithful hit moe Lewis put on a drew bled So it's a time ready feel like this guy Yeah That's a crazy story. It's like your house about to go in floor closure you driving down the street and a bag of money fall out the truck. Right. You're like Lord look at

this. I'm good now let me go pay without. Okay there you go. Let me go pay without. Coats head coach Shane St, addresses accountability called out by Pat McAfee. Not everyone is going to be on time. Jonathan Taylor alleged coach issues. No one thinks the standard has to be raised. The playoffs has to be the standard. You got to get in in order to establish that standard. Like, listen, this is the end of the apples, coach.

The standard is the playoffs. Hmm. It's hard when you lose to change the mindset. Right. The standard has got to be the standard. Everybody got to be punctual. Everybody needs to be on time. Everybody needs to be accountable.

Everybody needs to like, okay, what's, hey, coaches, you set the vision. You set the agenda. What is it where you're trying to do? Right. Hey, we're trying to go, hey, when our home games go eight, no, at home, go 500 on the road, 12 and four gets you into the playoffs every year. Oh Joe. Yeah. That's propped up more times than not that'll win you the division.

Now, sometimes a team will go 13 and three and 14 and two in that wall, but 12 or four is going to get you into the playoffs every year. The standard that you have to have a step. You have to have an ethos. Yeah. Something that's foundational, something every great organization. You look at the army the Air Force Marines they got to meet those they got something that they believe in You the proud man? So what is it that the coach what are you selling I guarantee you when paid was there you had a standard I guarantee you

Oh, yeah, listen, he coming in, you know the sheriff ain't play that Guarantee share of the knuckle a there I guarantee you. Oh yeah, listen, he coming in, you know the sheriff ain't play that. I guarantee you. Sheriff did not play that. Everybody has to be, everybody, I'm just a stickler, that's that. Not everyone is going to be on time. Huh? Where they do that at?

How many, were you, how many people came late Ocho to meet you? Oh no no no no. And you were in New England? No no no no no. Everybody was early huh? Everybody was early. And they might have been playing at? One day and one sound. You got, that's the only way you can win. Yeah.

That's the only way you can win. You can be accountable You got a weight. What's your weight Mike ain't playing that? You don't know how many times I've seen the guy go hit the sauna go get on the bike Don't get on the treadmill go get on the stairs Like oh, it's $50 a pound and it double So you five over that 50 next week. It's a hundred over. It's a hundred and the next week is 200 Now what you want to do? That's your money. Yeah, I don't get it It's crazy I just like I said that

Ocho I came along at the perfect time. It would drive me crazy Ochocho. Cause I don't think guys take it near as serious enough. Oh yeah. Yeah. And it's different. Honestly, Ocho, I live and die. But that was the only thing that mattered. Right. It was the only thing. And I believe in order for you to be great,

that's the price you have to pay. That too. You guys, boy. That too. Not to. She got us. Boy. Not to. If there any team that has a more complicated relationship

with their former great, Peyton Manning. I mean, if you didn't know Peyton, if you didn't really like watch youth, they Peyton Manning with the Broncos his whole career. He lives in Denver. He's always at the Broncos game. Yes, he lives in Denver. Seriously?

He's never gone, He's never gone. I think they went back when they unveiled a statue. Right. He never forgave Jim Earthshade for what he did. With the with the neck injury to let him go. Yep. OK, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Payton, he does stuff for Denver. He's big in the community in Denver.

Right. Yes Pat McAfee was was I think an all-pro poem made a couple provost, right? Now I don't know that you well Andrew look at bit back because now he's the GM of the Stanford Cardinals. Yeah Yeah, I'm gonna say y'all say he'll cope, but that is how he sees himself. Right. I don't see him as a coat. That's not how he sees himself. Right.

Because how many times do y'all see it? Coats. How many times have y'all seen Peyton at a game? Bronco fans. How many times have you seen Peyton at a game? All the time. I could answer that for you. Bronco fans, how many times you see bro, they never game I could answer that for you. Yeah, cuz every time I go I see it every function that we go to that night Payton is there Pay one apartment with no Subo, but he's there Yeah, he's at the games Hello, I got I got a I got a PT real quick go Go ahead. We ain't even know that, but okay.

I'm like, can I get, can I get a read? Can I go over it a couple of times? Um, but normally it's taking me about, it takes me like about two. Now, Jordan pulled out the camera, I get it in one.

Hold on, let me go to my rough draft list real quick. So if you want to go first, I need to make sure I'm on point so I can count on whatever it is you do.

Quit smoking. I'm not gonna go out as much, don't you? Now that's a lie. That's a lie. That's a habit that's hard to break. But that's a... My first one was work out more, right? Yes. And I quit smoking for my second one?

Yes. My next one, who up, you up or I'm up? You. Ooh. Stress less. Okay. You know what, Ocho? Yes, sir. I think me and you both need to do this.

We're going to be better people. I'm a great person. No. Volunteer or give back. Okay. Lying like a man. Yeah, you ain't volunteer. What am I gonna do?

I'm gonna, you know what I'll tell you? Yeah. I'm gonna give. I'm gonna be charitable. Well, I just said that. I said volunteer or give back. No, volunteer. You volunteering or you giving charity or you giving the money.

Volunteering time. You ain't volunteering no money. Volunteering and giving back is two different things. I'm talking about donating charity. You talking about your time. Okay. Right? Yeah. Or you want to give some money up.

You ain't giving no money up, Ocho. Nah, absolutely not. I'm not. I got, this is a good one. Cause people always do this one in their New Year's resolutions. 2025, I'm gonna be a new me. Okay.

I'm gonna learn a new skill. I'm gonna learn a new hobby. Okay. And at last, that lasts for maybe a month or two. All these last for a month or two. But it look good, read that old paper. You know what, Ocho, what I'm gonna do, Ocho? Yeah.

I'm gonna spend more time with family and friends. You know what, I'm gonna be more positive. No, damn, no, damn, why you not? You ain't, we thrive off negativity in general. I think you lost this one too, honestly. Nah, I think I got this one, Ocho. Nah, you lost it. The chat will tell you.

There you go, Santa. All right, there it is. Okay, I went with save money, cut down on alcohol, not gonna go out as much. I'm gonna be a better person. I'm gonna donate and spend more time with family and friends. Ocho like getting to gym, quit smoking, stress less, volunteer, learn a new hobby or skill, be more positive. Oh oh oh Joe, I thought y'all was cursing less. Remember that's what you said that was gonna be your new year's resolution? Right but it ain't new. I knew you, I knew. It ain't oh. I knew you was F.O.S.

You know what F.O.S. is? Oh shit. Yeah, there you go. See right there? That's what I do it. Hold on, but it's not New Year's yet. You, hold on. You said most common New Year's resolution. Right. And you not gonna even do your resolution. Yeah, but it ain't New Year's yet.

So it hadn't kicked in yet. No, you supposed to write it down first. It did it in acts in the New Year. Right. I'm going to be, you know what? I'm going to make a vision board of what I need to work on in Cheney for 2025. Well, considering you couldn't find your glasses, they was on your damn neck. You going to walk right by that vision board.

Loyalty. Doc, we appreciate that. Like I said, Doc was one of the first ones. Doc might've been like the first to the second one to actually subscribe.

Because I remember Ocho, when I was in New York, to do a first take and I looked down at the thing. I think Doc, Doc was the first one, one of the first names that I actually saw and that I remember seeing. So he has actually absolutely been here from the beginning and I appreciate it. Appreciate it. Doc, we appreciate that support.

Lanny Ray asked, Hey guys, happy last show of 24. Boss on Kevin O'Connell, getting coach of the year. Also want to beat Lyons. Stole. Yeah. I think it's his. Yeah. I think he's going to win.

He's playing a element hell of a job. If hard for me to see a scenario, uh, where Andy gets it, although Andy is 15, he's 15 and one and he will rest his start. And so he could easily be 60 potentially. He's still, they still could win. I don't think they will, but they could win. But it's just hard for Andy to get it because he has my home. Yeah. I mean, uh, I think, did they get, I think they got coached you better. It's just hard for Andy to get it because he has my home. Yeah.

I mean, I think they got Coach Belichick. Did they get Coach Belichick the coach of the year when they won 16-0? Yes. So how many times have Coach Belichick been coach of the year? Okay. So I don't know why they won't give it to Andy then. Hell, if Coach Belichick can win it three times with Tom Brady, you really tell me Andy can't win it once with my homeboy? Yeah, that's crazy. With three Super Bowl, with four Super Bowl appearances. But you already know what to expect from them. You didn't know what to expect from Kevin O'Connell. You didn't know what to expect from Coach Belichick

and Tom Brady? No, I'm just saying you knew it. Oh yeah, Kevin O'Connell. Kevin O'Connell should win it this year. That's what that'd mean. You did, we didn't even. You factored Dan Campbell in. You factored Andy in, Red. Who else? And you factor Dan Campbell in you factor And in red who else

Matt LaFleur. Yeah But it should be Kevin O'Connell. So lady. Yes, Kevin O'Connell should be a lady. Welcome back New Year's you in the house. You're not out parted.
