00:00The stories are starting to trickle out.

00:06You and Gabe talked about this a little bit.

00:08You know there's going to be stories about Salah from the Jets side.

00:12You know that Salah is probably going to get his hands on someone and start putting stories

00:16out about either Rodgers or the Jets.

00:18Well, I just saw one that Salah was actually considering firing Nathaniel Hackett when

00:25they got back from London.

00:27And I guess the Jets beat him to it and decided to chop him instead.

00:32So that's how Salah was looking to change the offense up.

00:35Now you know Hackett's Rodgers boy, Scotty.

00:38So I'm sure that once that word got around, that's probably when Rodgers and Woody got

00:44together and put the hit out on Big Rob.

00:47Here is Woody before you comment on all of this.

00:50This is from that conference call I was telling you about just about an hour ago.

00:54Why did he make the move to chop Salah today?

00:58And my opening statement is that this is one of the most talented teams that has ever been

01:05assembled by the New York Jets.

01:08I wanted to give this team the most opportunity to win this season.

01:14I feel that we had to go in a different direction and that's why I did that today.

01:22This change, the change that we made today, that I made, I believe will bring new energy

01:28and positivity that will lead to more wins starting now.

01:36I want to say, which I've said earlier to some of the members of the leadership team

01:43that represents the players, how proud I am of this team, this Pacific team, this year.

01:52And excited about what could happen and what will happen, particularly given these changes

01:58that we've made today.

02:00I think they're relatively capable of being a dangerous football team.

02:04I'm not going to deny that.

02:06So I'll tell you one thing.

02:11It lends me to believe is that, look, I think LeFleur can coach flat out, right?

02:16And I think that that guy ended up fooling everyone.

02:22Everyone thought that he was like this great coach, right?

02:25And then he got the job in Denver and then butchered that up nice and juicy.

02:30And then he's come here.

02:32And in my opinion, he's unnecessary.

02:36I really do believe that he's insignificant at the end of the day.

02:40I don't understand their obsession.

02:42I've never seen anyone talk about more than this Hackett guy.

02:46And we all know who's running the Jets is Aaron Rodgers.

02:50Just let Aaron Rodgers call the plays.

02:52Let Aaron Rodgers freestyle, as far as I'm concerned.

02:55I mean, every time this guy drops back, that's what he does anyway.

02:58I do not believe they're running some kind of fancy, sophisticated Nate Hackett offense.

03:03I really don't.

03:04I think he's finding guys open and hitting him with that cannon of his.

03:08That's what they're about, is his arm.

03:10And what they have to do is run the ball and they got to protect him better.

03:15This guy is getting abused in the pocket.

03:18I mean, just I thought his knee blew out on Sunday.

03:22He got raped.

03:23He gets hit more than their running backs.

03:26It's unbelievable to me how bad their offensive line is.

03:30Let's just face facts.

03:31They have no running game.

03:32They don't protect him at all.

03:33He takes abuse.

03:34And you can talk about Nate Hackett until you're blue in the face.

03:38I don't care who their coach is.

03:40I don't care about their GM.

03:43I don't care about their owner.

03:46I agree with him that they have a lot of talent.

03:49And what they really need is to keep Rogers upright and untouched and let him go to work.

03:55I mean, you know what?

03:56He reminds me of Parcells.

03:57I mean, you're to cook.

03:59Can I pick the food?

04:01Are you kidding me?

04:02This guy's the chef.

04:03Can he cook the dinner?

04:05Let this guy cook and quit with all this other nonsense.

04:09They waste all day talking about this Hackett guy and Sala.

04:14Listen, Robert Sala.

04:16Now, you know, Morenci said he's the defensive coach every day.

04:20He never won.

04:22I don't care what his defense, offense, secondary linebackers, you know, Monday, Saturday, Thursday,

04:28Wednesday, morning, night, they never win.

04:34That's all that matters.

04:35You don't win.

04:36You get fired in the NFL.

04:37You don't win.

04:38You get fired in the NHL, NBA, MLB.

04:41You don't win.

04:42After three and a half years, you get fired.

04:43This is real simple stuff.
