It's the Boomer and Geo podcast from WFAN. Boomer and Geo coming to you live from the Bill Ford Tough studio on the fan and CBS Sports Network. The Red Pocket Mobile fan line brought to you by your new ultimate cell carrier, Red Pocket Mobile. When we get to the calls, it'll be on 888-808-1019. Interesting hire by the Jets. Seth Ryan, son of former head coach Rex Ryan, is now on the staff of the Jets. He's It's going to be their passing game coordinator came over from the Lions. Obviously, I've told you many times, even prior to this whole thing with Frank Reich being hired here by the Jets, how much Frank admired Ben Johnson and the offense that he ran. He thought he was one of the best play callers and best play designers in the NFL.
Tanner Engstrom was exposed to that, and of course Seth Ryan was exposed to that out in Detroit. But it goes deeper than that for Frank and Seth Ryan because when Frank was the offensive coordinator out in San Diego for the Chargers, on his staff was Nick Sirianni and Shane Steichen. And then, of course, Nick Sirianni and Shane Steichen, you know, went together to Philadelphia. And I believe that's where they met Seth Ryan. When you do your due diligence and you hire people – so Aaron Glenn is a part of all of this too, by the way, because he obviously knows Seth and knows Rex and everybody else. But what happens is that you want to find people that you're familiar with or people that you are familiar with.
You want to listen to what they say about somebody. Is the guy a grinder? Is he going to be on time? Is he going to be an alpha male?
What is the significance of the Jets hiring Seth Ryan?
Is he going to be this? Is he going to be that? What kind of coaches are you looking for? And when I did talk to Frank over the weekend, who's in his office right now as we speak. He did tell me, he goes, yeah, we really wanted this guy. And because of the recommendation from Nick Sirianni and Shane Steichen, talk to those two guys and tell me about Seth. I don't really know him. I know he's exposed to the Ben Johnson system, which Frank obviously really likes. So there's a dual connection there, if you will. And I think they're trying to build out an offensive staff at least from what I can tell from Aaron Glenn's words and everything else, that he wants a staff that's going to be kind of like – a rough and tough alpha male staff that's going to make this team tougher than what it was.
And I feel like they're on the way of doing that. They still have to figure out who the quarterback's going to be, which will be discussed ad nauseum for the next four to eight weeks before they decide exactly who they're going to sign as a veteran or maybe two. And then if they draft one, if they feel comfortable taking somebody with – Either they trade back up in the first round or they go second or third round pick. But that second or third round pick is not your starting quarterback. No, better not be. No, your starting quarterback is going to be somebody that is available, that can still play, get the team in and out of the huddle, and basically be a leader.
How does Frank Reich's connection influence the Jets' coaching staff?
They want a leader. They want a leader personality. I know we make a lot of comparisons to the Lions because Aaron Glenn was there and it got off to a rough start with Dan Campbell. But if you go back and you watch that hard knocks with Dan Campbell and that staff and the rough and tumble staff, you're going to see Dan doing the up-downs with the team. You see Aaron Glenn and Deuce Daly screaming at each other in practice. I mean, that's, I think, what Aaron Glenn's trying to build. I think he's trying to build competition. He wants competition amongst the players. I think he wants competition amongst the coaching staff too, which is a good thing. You want offense, defense going after each other, guys.
That's how you get to where the Seahawks and the Patriots got to last night. I mean, that Patriot defense played great last night.
They did. Yeah.
But when you have three turnovers that end up in 17 points and one of them is a defensive score, you're not going to win the game.
