00:00You know, all I keep hearing is you can't question Mike Tomlin and because of all of
00:08his success, I'm going to question Mike Tomlin here.
00:12I don't know what the hell they're doing and going to Russell Wilson.
00:15I understand it's a good problem to have if you're winning football games and you have
00:19two quarterbacks.
00:21I get it in the sense that they paid Russell Wilson a ton of money.
00:25Tomlin was the one that wanted him in the first place.
00:28He was the one, it wasn't the owners that went to him or the GM, like Tomlin was the
00:32one that said, let's, let's bring Russell Wilson in and he was injured.
00:36So he never got his shot.
00:37I get it.
00:39But you know, you're four and two, you're winning games.
00:42The Jets defense is very good.
00:44Wilson hasn't played a football game in about a year right now and you're dropping them
00:48on the football field against a lethal defense against a desperate football team.
00:54I don't, I don't like the move, Scott.
00:55I thought Fields was doing enough.
00:57I knew that Fields wasn't perfectly, you're the Steeler fan.
00:59I don't know how you feel about it, but I get it from the business perspective and we
01:05got to understand, man, the NFL is a business and they paid them and they picked up Fields
01:11off the scrap heap.
01:12And I love how Fields has handled it and what you said, well, if I play better, this wouldn't
01:16be happening.
01:17I'm not so sure, kid.
01:19Maybe if you were six and oh, you know, they wouldn't have done this, but he were five
01:23and one.
01:24They had their mind made up because of all the money that they paid Russell Wilson.
01:29And they're just not, you know what I mean?
01:30They're not going to let him stay on the bench.
01:33And if you're Fields, you did have a nice little audition here, right?
01:37Tomlin gave you a shot.
01:38Nobody, nobody wanted Fields.
01:39Like he was on the market forever.
01:42I don't know why personally, what people have against this kid.
01:45I think he's pretty good, Scott.
01:46I think he just needs reps.
01:47You get him out there with a good football team.
01:49He was winning games.
01:50He was doing enough.
01:51He wasn't costing the Steelers games.
01:53You can put it that way.
01:54I think at this stage, I don't have a lot of confidence in Russell Wilson, to be honest.
02:00So they're going to have no breakaway from the pocket at all when he's in trouble.
02:04He's getting sacked.
02:05He's going to blow up.
02:06Blow up.
02:07Yep.
02:08Exactly.
02:09And Fields has it.
02:10He breaks out and runs for 12 yards and swings it to Pickens.
02:13And let me say this to you, Scott, and you'll agree with this, I'm sure, too.
02:17So and you know this.
02:18Fields, his one problem is he doesn't read the defense fast enough on the first read.
02:23So he snaps the ball, boom.
02:26You know, the windows are small and tight in the NFL.
02:28How long the guy's going to be open for?
02:30He was open by the time Fields sees it.
02:32He isn't.
02:33So Fields sort of prolongs plays a little bit, but he can with his, because of his athleticism.
02:39Scott, Russell Wilson does the same damn thing.
02:42Russell Wilson doesn't get rid of the ball quickly.
02:45Like that's why Seattle got better when Gino took over again after because Gino just gets
02:49rid of the ball quickly.
02:50Russell like runs around, rolls out, but he's not fast and he still thinks he can heave
02:56it down the field.
02:57Like he hasn't adapted his game.
03:00Justin Fields is much more suited for today's NFL.
03:03I guarantee you, I guarantee you guys, the New York Jets are happy that they're starting
03:08Russell Wilson instead of Justin Fields on Sunday.
