But here's the other interesting part to that, Mike. I over the weekend, I was just talking to a couple of general managers about last year's draft class, you know, just how quarterback heavy and talented this group is. And obviously we're seeing this now in the playoffs with the young rookies that are the stars of the show. And I was I was asking about these upcoming quarterbacks.

Where would they fall last year's draft class? And two GMs said, definitely after Bo Nix, one said Cam would probably fall before Bo because some team probably wouldn't have understood or believed how good Bo is, right?

Hold on.

Hold on.

Bo Nix is holding them down in Denver.

Jaden Daniels is lifting them up in Washington. Interesting.

No, I didn't think it was a great script just to defend him there. I thought the writing could have been better. They weren't really pushing him. They almost wrote it in a way to make him sound dumb, whereas I think a script like we heard yesterday in the press conference, that's a job well done when he was talking about the changes at his head coaching position.

Thanks, guys. Great to see you.

You're listening to DraftKings Network. And starring Timothee Chalamet as Bob Dylan.

of a talented defense has to be toughness. There's no finesse in defense. No defense is dominating because they have a soft touch but good mechanics and they're technically sound. Okay, those could be true, but it has to be blanketed by overall toughness.

I love that you and I have such different issues in life. Like you have this beautiful accent, obviously. And people think because of that, it sounds intellectual and perhaps in some cases softer. Whereas like, you know, I sound very New Jersey. It's the opposite. It's, it's, Gross. And it's hard. Right.

So it's like we both have to battle things separately, which is why in this Jets piece that that was published today that I worked on with Mike Silver and Zach Rosenblatt. I want you to do the audio version of the Jets piece for me, because I think if I read it, Jets fans are going to feel like I'm attacking them. But I feel like if Meech does it, they're going to go.

OK, maybe things aren't so bad and we can give them some hope to balance out all the stuff that we uncovered about this team.

Yeah, there's a lot there. I think the Madden rating stands out the most because I do think players worry about Madden ratings, but I always looked at it as something just superficial, something that just played into their egos and just wanting to have a high rating and be among the best in the video game. But the fact that the owner of the Jets

used a rating to make a decision about whether or not he was going to trade Jerry Judy. That was stunning to me. And there are a lot of people around the league who knew about it. And this wasn't the first time that Woody had ever referenced a Madden rating in reference to Jets players that he either had on his roster or perhaps were targeting in the offseason.
