00:02 I hear Salah on why he's going back to Zach Wilson.
00:06 >> Zach gives us our best chance to win.
00:09 >> Now he does.
00:10 >> Giving him another opportunity to go prove that.
00:13 >> How did that conversation go when you told him?
00:15 >> He was good, he's fired up.
00:16 Like I said, on Monday he came into my office, he wants the ball.
00:20 And he's excited about getting this opportunity to finish the season strong.
00:24 >> Well, I'll tell you, Joe, the books, I guess,
00:26 think that he's their better chance to win.
00:28 Cuz it went from six to three and a half with him starting now.
00:32 So I guess they think that.
00:33 [LAUGH] >> Well, I'm guilty, I took it at six.
00:39 Because, and forget about the Jets, forget about the Zach Wilson thing.
00:44 Who in the hell is CJ Stroud and the Houston Texans to be laying
00:49 nearly a touchdown on the road against a top five defense?
00:55 In which, let's face it, they've looked good recently at home,
01:01 in a dome, where they can control what's going on here.
01:05 You're not gonna have any control at MetLife on a wet, windy day.
01:10 And you certainly, who is exactly, Dell is gone.
01:14 So what, Nico Collins is gonna have a field day with Sauce Gardner there?
01:19 They're gonna drop 7'8" into the backfield.
01:21 Everything that we've seen recently from Houston, and what it seems like they are
01:26 just this amazing team, is not going to happen at MetLife against this Jet defense.
01:32 And by the way, their starting center will be out in this game.
01:36 Their starting left tackle, Tyus Howard, he's out this game.
01:40 And they lost their number one wide receiver.
01:42 They have no running game, but
01:44 I'm supposed to believe they're gonna go on the road and win by a touchdown?
01:48 I don't even care what the Jets are gonna throw into center.
01:51 It's still too many damn points in this NFL.
01:54 Give me as many as you want here, not buying Houston having the same success.
