like an offensive coordinator like how we think of kyle shanahan he's calling this run to set up this you know play action pass later and then he's going to use the same formation and i think spagnola does similar things because on that drive the previous play they zero blitz them the bills had the right call as a screen to amari cooper just unfortunately he tripped and didn't get the first down and it really looked like they were going to zero him again and i think alan thought he would have the shallow cross and they just looked totally unprepared for what ended up happening and it was a reminder that
the Chiefs defensive coordinator not becoming a head coach has been such a pivotal part of this dynasty.

I mean, I am really excited about the Ben Johnson hire in Chicago because I don't think and Dominique and I kind of disagree about this sometimes. I don't think it's like a knee jerk. You got to hire the hot young coordinator with the best offense. I understand that sometimes that doesn't work. Sometimes you want more of a CEO type coach or defensive minded head coach.

But watching that offense in Detroit the last couple of years and then watching what Caleb had to deal with this year I'm really interested in seeing like a more quarterback friendly offense for him. And I think it's going to be really successful.

So how many teams can you say that like when when people are like, hey, I'm really hopeful like this Jags coach is going to really get the most out of Trevor Lewis and people go, excuse me, it's the Jaguars. We're like, what percentage of teams can you actually pull that for?

I know. He came out in that press conference. He was like, buckle up your seatbelts. I was like, all right, a little bit of a strange image because you're a Jet and you're countering turbulence if you have a seatbelt. But then he was like, this is Jets football. And I'm like, Aaron, you know what Jets football connotes, right? And he said it like it was a good thing.

I think smart in a lot of ways. Like with all these coaches, when they're hired, I always give this sort of cowardly caveat. I don't know if he's going to be a good leader, but it's true. We really don't know with a lot of these guys if they're going to be the next Sean McVay or – insert at an Urban Meyer.

People do that. How many times can you not do that? I guess, like, the four remaining playoff teams? I'll make a list. I'll get back to you.

Well, is that the question? I think he's very old and maybe there's an old timey definition of that term. This has actually happened with Jerry Jones before where he's used a term and everyone was like, wait, what? And then it turned out to be something that was like,
