Hello, Welcome in side final hour tonight the Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Harmon YO live from the ti rack dot Com studios tirec dot com. I help you get there an unmatched election, fast, free shipping, free road hazard protection, over ten thousand recommended installers. Tirack dot Com is the way tire buying should be. Now, really, there's more and more evidence that this can happen. But now I feel like I'm kind of getting elbowed out right, because what if I said the entire time this offseason, Okay, I need jj Reddick to get the Lakers under the top six in the West, and he dug Gottlieb to get the Phoenix into the NCAA Tournament, and then I and then I could be the GM or head coach of the Jets. I mean, manager of the Mets is kind of out now that they haven't working pretty well.

I mean, the only thing that he's got over me is that he was in the NFL, you know, so there is that he wore a nice suit. I mean, but I'm a better broadcaster. I mean, I've also tried to talk like the Raiders had a good game plan. I'm much they were terrible. I much more invested emotionally in the outcome of the Jets, and I would be another team.

Well, I mean he he was on the radar for other jobs in the NFL in the past, and from what we're seeing, and obviously we're doing the show, so we've got limited exposure to the broadcast as it flows, but certainly following social media as we do saying, you know, some assessment of how he handled discussion of the Raiders, the game plan, personnel and whatever else. Look, I get it, partners, and you don't have to treat it with quite the kid gloves. I mean, he was seemingly wearing you know, Mickey Mouse sized gloves to talk about, you know, any problems on their roster. I don't know that he could be so kind to yours.

Speaking of crazy things happening in front offices and me being the GM of the Jets. Yeah, how about this the Troy Aikman through out there on the broadcast tonight, he said the Bears should trade the forty nine ers for Kyle Shanahan.

Speaking of crazy things happening in front offices and me being the GM of the Jets. Yeah, how about this the Troy Aikman through out there on the broadcast tonight, he said the Bears should trade the forty nine ers for Kyle Shanahan.

Yeah, no, it's it's been floating out for a couple of weeks.

Yeah, no, it's it's been floating out for a couple of weeks.

Yeah. Like but and here's the thing thought bubble for all of for everybody who thinks, oh man, you know coaches have you know the value of them, and you're going to replace them all the way through. Kyle Shanahan's a really good head coach. I would love to have the problems of boy, we couldn't navigate the final few minutes of the Super Bowl. I'd love to have that, considering my team hasn't even sift the playoffs. Since before I knew you guys, we figured out tonight. I didn't know who any of you were the last time the Jets made the playoffs. And we've been together doing the show for eleven years. Didn't almost eleven years?

Yeah. Like but and here's the thing thought bubble for all of for everybody who thinks, oh man, you know coaches have you know the value of them, and you're going to replace them all the way through.

You know me? But you had to know who I was, I said, Hart, I've been in this business. Oh yeah, but I mean but but I never actually did a spot to get right.

You know me? But you had to know who I was, I said, Hart, I've been in this business. Oh yeah, but I mean but but I never actually did a spot to get right.

But but I didn't know you though. I wouldn't know bailed. Yeah, and you came on the show and I came on. He goes to sleep at like six pm. Yeah, but I didn't know you then. I didn't know Frost proably know any of you. That's the last time I made the players. I'd love to have that problem. Like six Oh yeah, I think Mary was in school yet, Mary, you just turned what twenty two, twenty one, twenty one? So no, you hated it in sixth grade? What year that would have been? Ten years ago? Damn.

The last time that Jets were good was nineteen sixty nine.

Stop we went to back to back AFC time. It sounds like millennials go, this guy lies in the radio. They JITs didn't go back to back yeah, no, we did in twenty eleven and two yeas.

Stop we went to back to back AFC time. It sounds like millennials go, this guy lies in the radio. They JITs didn't go back to back yeah, no, we did in twenty eleven and two yeas.

But see then when we bring it up to try to commemorate it, now you dismiss it categorically.

But see then when we bring it up to try to commemorate it, now you dismiss it categorically.

You mock six chair. It's so long, Ryan, it may as well be Super Bowl three. That was so long ago. It's like people that want to dismiss Sexy REXI. It's so long.

You mock six chair. It's so long, Ryan, it may as well be Super Bowl three. That was so long ago. It's like people that want to dismiss Sexy REXI. It's so long.

Prince played purple Rain in the rain at halftime, but it's still a Super Bowl appearance by the Bears.

Now, let's listen to Troy Aikman as he threw this out there tonight about the Bears should trade the forty nine ers for Kyle Shanahan.

Now, let's listen to Troy Aikman as he threw this out there tonight about the Bears should trade the forty nine ers for Kyle Shanahan.

Thirtain whether or not they can be a head coach. There has been discussion about you do you give up some picks and see if you can maybe make a deal for a guy like Kyle Shanahan. I would be all in on that because he would develop a quarterback and he's a hell of.

Thirtain whether or not they can be a head coach. There has been discussion about you do you give up some picks and see if you can maybe make a deal for a guy like Kyle Shanahan. I would be all in on that because he would develop a quarterback and he's a hell of.

The head coach.

The head coach.

But can you pull that off?

But can you pull that off?

That's that's a better question. And who might you hire that has no head coaching experience as an offensive guy, you never know the answer to that.

That's that's a better question. And who might you hire that has no head coaching experience as an offensive guy, you never know the answer to that.

All right, So there's Ekman throwing that out there, and that's a legit topic because you think about the importance of a really good head coach and Kyle Shanahan who is a really good head coach. But I can see where the forty nine ers are saying, Okay, boy, maybe we're at the top. Maybe his message is getting a little stale. We have some things we have to do. We have to blow up the roster because you know, we have fifteen guys making twenty million dollars a year. So yeah, maybe that would work for us. But I'm telling you, I get it and I understand, but you don't. I don't know that teams really and fans understand the value of what it means to have a really good head coach that can keep you in the conversation and get you to the playoffs every year. Okay, think about what think about the Chargers from last year to now? Right from Brandon Staley, dude, what are you doing going for it on fourth down? The Chargers were a lost franchise and what happened in one year? Here's Jim Harbaugh back and guess what, they got a two game lead on the playoffs and if they win Thursday, they're gonna get in. This is what Harball has been able to do in a year, and it's amazing. Look at Sean Payton. All Saints had to give up. The Saints had to get a first round pick for Sean Payton. You think you think that's worth it. Sean Payton has the Broncos going to the playoffs right now in one season. I'm turning them, I'm turning the page on on on Russell Wilson, I'm doing all of these things. Doesn't matter. But look at Sean Payton now in Denver and bow Nis is playing really well and he's got just a bunch of guys that are playing with bow knicks. And look at where they're They're still scoring a bunch of points. Feel like they're winning every game sixteen to seven because a great defense. They're scoring tons of points and they're winning. I mean, you see the value of Sean Payton, right, I mean, this is just how it goes. And Sean McVay doesn't need draft picks. They we give up draft picks for it. If you're the Bears like that, scenario is out there. First of all, if I'm the Niners, I would never do it. But if I'm the Bears, yeah, what do you want? We got everything we need on this team. We need a coach, we need to we need some kind of leadership because that's how we're going to go forward. That's how teams build great teams. When you are some of the three most important positions. I always say owner, general manager slash president of operations, head coach slash manager. When you can get those three things all solved, guess what, you can do a lot of great things. And this would solve the biggest problem that the Bears have. Yeah, okay, if the Niners really don't like the fact that, ay, we've been to the super Bowl, where win you this is a tough year because you've had a lot of injuries. If they're done, hey, we'll take them. I'll give you a first round pick for Kyle Shanan one hundred percent. Oh, there's no question about it.

All right, So there's Ekman throwing that out there, and that's a legit topic because you think about the importance of a really good head coach and Kyle Shanahan who is a really good head coach. But I can see where the forty nine ers are saying, Okay, boy, maybe we're at the top. Maybe his message is getting a little stale. We have some things we have to do.

If they're done, hey, we'll take them. I'll give you a first round pick for Kyle Shanan one hundred percent. Oh, there's no question about it.

It's really more a decision, you know, Shanahan, Lynch and company. Do they still have a cohesive vision? Where do they all stand in the brock Purty world, Because there's gonna be a lot of thought pieces and monologues and everything about what he is and isn't as a quarterback and reminding everybody in our business, as I'm sure it's relayed throughout the National Football League is there are very few coaches that stand out like that. That's why there's a constant cycling out. It's not it's not by coincidence. There are very few that can do that job and do it well. You know, it's always been a CEO job with hands on more on one side of the ball than the other. I mean, we've watched that, but how many guys are consistently great and don't burn out? Hell Sean McVay. You know, if you believe the reports almost walked away a couple of years ago, right in the midst of the first real trying season that he had Sean Payton suspended bountygate, Believe what you will out of that. You have the rough year last year with Russell Wilson and May had a couple of games that could have gone in the balance. This year, you've got a guy bon Nicks and even early this year they had their growing pains. Even in recent weeks, you've got big thought pieces in Denver all right, is the offense really there? Well, but you're building a culture for San Francisco. They've got inside has run its course because of age and everything else where, Is Kyle Shanahan need a reset? And for the Bears, who's the GM and ay Ryan Poles? I mean they kept showing him in the booth. I kept waiting to see what he was drawn and doodling on the piece of paper, staring off into space most of the time. And Kevin Warren, Do I trust he's building anything of consoling because that's the other part, right, kind of want to go there? I've Kyle Shanahan. I don't know that I do, as much as I may want to go work with Caleb Williams and what you've built with parts of that offense, there's still a lot about vision cohesion and where you're headed. That are giant ass riddler suit wearing question marks along the way, and Kevin Warren is certainly one of them as well. Uh So, yeah, that that's it's it's great and great in theory, But if I'm the forty nine ers, am I getting.

That's better? It's the Ryan Day question. It's the Tomlin question annually it's like, well, this is how far we go?

That's better? It's the Ryan Day question. It's the Tomlin question annually it's like, well, this is how far we go?

Well, what are you getting without him?

John Harbaugh had that for a run over in Baltimore. Are you running him?

John Harbaugh had that for a run over in Baltimore. Are you running him?

Like?

Like?

What the hell is better telling you finding there's.

What the hell is better telling you finding there's.

The teams that have had a large amount of success but have not been to the top of the mountain find it easy to say, well, we're always going to be good. We have everything we need. We just need a new coach to get that. And they don't understand that.

Let's talk about campbelling because with the injuries to the various lines, not my fault.

Let's talk about campbelling because with the injuries to the various lines, not my fault.

Uh. Look, they found it Jenks to lose death stop.

Uh. Look, they found it Jenks to lose death stop.

I did not. They lost David Montgomery for the year today, likely for the year with the knee injury. They've lost other players throughout the year. They had three defensive linemen coming back yesterday and it was going to be fantastic. They lost a couple more today McNeil is out as well, and look, Dan Campbell talked about it, saying, hey, this is the time of year where there's you know, look, it sucks for the guys, obviously because it does, but this is where for younger guys, guys who want an opportunity, it's that time. And yeah, I get it because that's Look, that's how the NFL is. Guys get hurt in December and this is time for someone to step up and get a chance. This is how it works. It sucks when people get hurt, it always does, but this is just part of how it goes in the NFL. I'm not that concerned about the Lions injuries because look, they've been winning with the injuries the last few weeks. They ran into a red hot Bills team yesterday and Josh Allen and they started out slow because look, when you've won nine games in a row, it's yeah, we got it, do wri Our offense is so good, we can start out slow. Well, they realize you can't start out down fourteen nothing. The game was pretty even after that, but that was the game. You're down fourteen nothing, can't stop the Bills. Oh wait a minute, So I think so. I expect the Lions to be sharper and more button down the rest of the way because they had the reality check a day ago. I'm not that concerned about the injuries. Other teams have injuries. They're still on track. They can still get there and get all the games throughout the playoffs at Ford Field. The bigger question and the biggest thing, as I'm telling you right now, this Lion season is gonna end. And with us talking about the game the day after saying, can you believe Dan Campbell did that? Because that decision X cost them the game? He decides to go for the on side kick yesterday early in the fourth quarter, and it's a game that it's a decision that basically handed the game to the Bills. There's still over ten minutes left to go. The lines get it down to within two scores. They were down ten. Hey we're gonna onside kick. Ooh okay, maybe I get you're not stopping him, but you got to stop him at some point to get back in the game. So you know, really you want to on side kick there? What happens? They don't get it. The Bills wind up returning the kick all the way down to the three yard line. Look, there's only been three on side kicks were covered all season long. You can't sit here and tell me that's a better play than trying to play defense and trying to get off the field. At some point, eventually you're gonna have to stop them. You can't keep her lying on side again. It's worked three times all year. Okay, this is not a high percentage play. This is not even a low percentage play. This is almost a zero percent play. And this is what we're gonna do to try to win the game. And what happened instead of getting him back in it, which was Dan Campbell's plan and wound up costing in the game because at that point, the Bills went back up by three scores and it was over. This is how the Lion season is going to end with Dan Campbell making a decision full of hubris, a gut instinct, and attitude that's going to kill them because this is how he makes decisions of going for it on fourth down. We always do it this way. We always Yeah, you know what, I can go back to the NFC title game last year and say, hey, this always going for it on fourth down? How did that work out for you right when you gamble, And these are gambles. These are not plays, These are not high percentage plays. These are not Hey, the gamble works here because we have a sixty five percent chance succeeding. You had what a four percent chance succeeding with an on side kick and a cost of the game. Dan Campbell makes decisions based on his gut, based on I believe in my guys, which is great, but not all fourth down calls and on side kicks are created equally, and his propensity to do this again, their risks for a reason. They're called gambles for a reason. It means they don't pan out. And just like last whereas Gamble's didn't pan out with him losing in the winning the NFC Title game, he's not learned his lesson. He's more gambling this year. And I guarantee you the Lion season will come to an end. We'll be talking about it the day after the game. Can you believe Dan Campbell did this questionable thing and it cost them in the playoffs? And now so and so is going on to the Super Bowl, or so and so is going on to the NFC Title Game. That's how the Lion season is going to end because Dan Campbell clearly shows I've not learned this lesson or no one to gamble, no one to do it, but I'm going to keep doing things like this. That's who he is, all right.

I did not. They lost David Montgomery for the year today, likely for the year with the knee injury. They've lost other players throughout the year.

That's who he is, all right.

It's part of the reason of the culture that you've built the belief that you're always going to get the bounce, make the play and get things right. In this case, some of it's calculated into what your defense really hadn't been able to do all day, and now the war of attrition has hit that you need to come up with something to change and change the tide and getting back to ten. Great, you'd forced one part hunt the entire game, right, you had a miss field goal and then you had the end of the half. Those are the only other two times that you'd been able to stop the Bills. Otherwise they'd run roughshot on you. Like, let's use it because it was Saturday Night's made event, Hulke Mania in the eighties. Okay, that was the Bills offense and that's the way they're operating. So part of that and look, you heard it in the quote, that's been making the rounds going. Well, maybe not the best because it took one play for the Bills to find the end zone, and then you're chasing that much more. I defend it only in the fact that for Dan Campbell, that's the culture you're building, that's the identity that you're going to push the margins. And even going back to the playoff game last year, make a play right, you had a guy make a play Reynolds and all that that you were trying to do a year ago, and that's how it could end that way. I don't know that it's going to because I think at this point, bar a sudden miraculous return of a number of these players, you're not gonna have enough guys to go in and not get get blasted by Philadelphia in their current form's not coming back not well. But I mean so now you've got, you know, the next man up, and Jamiir Gibbs has been fantastic and we'll need to continue to do so. And unfortunately for Jared Goff, he's now a statistic of the worst game, best game and those kind of things wins and losses along the way. Uh. But I'll defend Dan Campbell for for staying true to the identity that he's built and will it cost him. I'd rather be in that position that what I'm in. Oh, that's in hell. But we're talking.

We're talking about a team that Look, this is where we're talking about a team in the top one tenth of one percent of teams in the NFL, and it's this I can this is how their season is going to end with Dan Campbell. I'm smarter than everybody else, and I'm gonna do this when it's whoa dude? Not all fourth down on sidekick gambles are created equal. And you lost the game here against the Bill. Okay, that's great, but man, it's different to do this in week thirteen, week fifteen than it is in the NFC title. And you know he's gonna do it. And when you're doing against a really good team, you give them momentum back, you make a big play, you can't come back from. Tell them that to how other season ended last year, it's gonna end that way this year.

Well, I say it was because on the ensuing possession, the defense sucked and didn't do their job. Seven plays, seventy yards. That was a bit as big a debacle as the lack of a fourth down execution. But your point's well taken and it may very well come down to that. And for the city of Detroit, you better hope it doesn't. Because David Montgomery not being there too late, this is gonna be on you. I will give DJ Reader credit though, Like in the Postgame, being asked about all this stuff, he just goes, Dude, we've been kicking everybody's ass for all these weeks. It finally happened to us.

Two quarterbacks.

Two quarterbacks.

You know we talked about the Dan Campbell the Lions aspect, and look Josh Allen again with another incredible performance on Sunday. He's single handedly winning fantasy championships for people. He's a wizard fifty points each of the last couple of weeks. The best way to stop him, I know, you stop him, but the best way to beat the bills right now? And it sounds like a weird thing, but this is, this is just is what makes Josh Allen the version of himself that he has been, which is the best version of Josh Allen.

And it sounds like a weird thing, but this is, this is just is what makes Josh Allen the version of himself that he has been, which is the best version of Josh Allen.

Yeah, in the last three four weeks right of play, he's thirty points ahead of the next highest fantasy quarterback and that's including their bye week.

Yeah, in the last three four weeks right of play, he's thirty points ahead of the next highest fantasy quarterback and that's including their bye week.

Yeah, he has been. He has been incredible. The best way to survive Josh Allen is to number one stop him as a runner. I know it's weird, say way you want to stop a quarterback is a runner, yes, because if you can keep him in the pocket. I don't mean you have to sack. I mean you have to keep him in the pocket and make him throw from the pocket. The Bills are still gonna score a lot of points. They're still gonna do it, but you have a better chance at this point of doing that and winning because when you if you make Josh Allen a pocket quarterback and make him throw, yes, he's gonna move up and down the field, but he's gonna get a little frustrated. He's gonna try to force playmaking, which is what he does, and he's gonna give you the ball a couple of times a game. He's gonna turn the ball over. He's gonna make throws he shouldn't because right now, when you are running this offense where you're trying to stop everything the Bills are doing, Josh Allen is just this is this is him in peak form, the confidence level he is playing at, whether it's a designed run for him or something where it's hey, you know, it's a it looks like it looks like a play that breaks down, but meanwhile it's just hey, by time for a second and then take off right he had that big flip for a touchdown to Dalton Kincaid. Where is a Mahomes tight pass where it got called back for penalty yesterday where you can tell that's what he's feeling right now. That's the level of confidence. You have to stop a quarter back from playing with that level of confidence. And if you can keep him from not running, because those are the plays that kill other teams, if you can play them and make them a traditional team, they're still really good. It's going to be very difficult. Bills are the best team in the AFC right now. But it's the only way to really slow him down because when he is feeling every fiber of his game, he's impossible to stop. If you can take away the running aspect of it and make him throw, they're still gonna score a lot of points, but potentially he could have a bad game. He'll give you the football. That's the only way to stop him right now. Yeah, the evolution, he's cut down on turnovers. It's one of the big hallmarks of what this season has become is taking care of the football, and in these last four weeks in particular, take aside the game against San Francisco where.

That just got out of hand, right. Otherwise, you're looking at the rushing totals have been much higher, three double digit rushing attempt games, which he had none prior to that stretch, Prior to that date with Kansas City. That was the first time that you pushed forward and he really started to say, okay, now it's my time.
