Transcript

00:02 And they entered the game to the Chiefs, the RSS, a 7.5 point favorite,
00:06 with a total of 41.5.
00:08 Kansas City jumped out to a 17 zip lead at the end of the first quarter, and
00:12 we all were watching the game thinking, all right, it's gonna be 41 to 7.
00:16 Tough one for the Jets.
00:17 But then Zach Wilson turned it on, played great football through the next three
00:22 quarters, until he fumbled a snap with 7.5 minutes remaining in the fourth quarter.
00:27 Kansas City got the football back in a game tied at 20 all.
00:30 They held onto it for the remainder of the football game.
00:34 They were actually up 23 to 20 at that point, Donnie.
00:36 But a game in which the Jets were close.
00:39 They cover as a 7.5 point underdog, but not enough to get past Kansas City.
00:44 >> Game goes over the total in just barely, but also on Friday,
00:48 we talked about our pick six.
00:49 I like this game for the all total, 45.5.
00:51 How does that not get over 45.5 with the Jets scoring 20 points in this game?
00:56 Well, the Jets defense played fairly well in the second half and
00:59 shut the door.
00:59 And also a heady play by a quarterback where if that was me,
01:02 I run it in the end zone and say, give me those stats for my MVP race here.
01:06 And not slide down at the one yard line, but the right thing was done.
01:09 They won the football game and that's all they actually care about.
01:11 Patrick Mahomes, I don't wanna say pedestrian, but come on.
01:14 18 of 30, 2-0-3, one touchdown, two interceptions.
01:17 That sounds more like a line for Zach Wilson than it does for Patrick Mahomes.
01:20 But for the better overall football team,
01:22 they don't make the mistakes in the biggest parts of the game like Zach Wilson did at
01:27 the end of that one to fumble and the Jets defense just can't get off the field here
01:30 to give him a chance to get the football back.
01:32 But if there is any hope, they were competent last night on offense for
01:36 the Jets, I guess.
