00:00The Miami Dolphins finding a way to be in the mix.

00:05Nobody wants them in the mix.

00:07Let's put it to you like this.

00:08I have a ticket on the Dolphins preseason.

00:10I'm in the conference, I'm good.

00:12No thanks.

00:13I don't need to watch them play Buffalo again

00:16and watch them get smashed again.

00:20Pro football doc, Dr. David Chow and the guys at Sixcore

00:22are the absolute best in the business.

00:25I think you said that you guys were like,

00:26hey, you know what happened with Troy?

00:28They're like, I don't know.

00:29His hip all of a sudden broke.

00:30I don't know what's going on with this guy.

00:33Tyler Huntley's going again.

00:35It's to a back if they make the playoffs.

00:37Do they care?

00:39Do they want him in?

00:40The Jets are favored.

00:41Like, does anybody understand how insane that is?

00:44Anybody who needs a game today is laying way more

00:47than they are supposed to.

00:49The Bucs are laying two touchdowns.

00:51The Ravens yesterday laid 20 points.

00:54We just talked about Denver's laying double digits

00:57to Kansas City.

00:59The Dolphins are catching points, Leece,

01:02with a playoff spot on the line.

01:04You came into work today with about 16 layers of clothes on.

01:07Okay, that's how cold it is outside.

01:10I did too.

01:11It's freezing outside, right?

01:13Last time we saw the Dolphins perform

01:15in a cold weather environment was Thanksgiving night

01:17where they got absolutely smashed by the Green Bay Packers.

01:20I know they stepped up against the Cleveland Browns

01:23last week.

01:24They win 20 to three, but it was a balmy 50 degrees

01:27in Cleveland last week.

01:28It's back-to-back road games.

01:29Snoop Huntley finally showed up 225 yards through the air,

01:33one touchdown, no interceptions.

01:35But I can't back Miami in a road environment,

01:38in MetLife, even though it's the New York Jets,

01:41the gutless New York Jets, and Aaron Rodgers.

01:44They deserve to be favored because of how the Dolphins

01:46have performed in cold weather environments

01:49and just knowing that they're walking

01:50through the motions right now.

01:52So I would lay it with the New York Jets.

01:54I do believe that Aaron Rodgers going

01:56for his 500th career touchdown pass.

01:58I think he throws at least one or two.

02:01Maybe they grind out a victory.

02:02I would lean to the under just because,

02:04what are you gonna get out of Miami

02:05in terms of a passing attack?

02:07It's gonna be the rushing attack at HN and right

02:10and all those running backs most of it.

02:11I mean, that's what you're gonna get.

02:13So give me the Jets, give me the under.

02:15And I do like Devante Adams plus 160

02:18any time touchdown today.

02:19The Jets should win this game, but also understand,

02:21let's see how healthy that organization is.

02:24And I don't mean by the Jets supposed to go out there

02:25and win 45 to 10 and what a way to send us off

02:27into the off season, Joe.

02:28I'm talking about just going out there

02:30and losing this football game to get a better draft pick

02:32at this point here.

02:33And also if the indicator for people out there is like,

02:35oh, you know, they'll bench their starters.

02:37You might be looking at Tyra Taylor,

02:38the better quarterback right now than Aaron Rodgers

02:40who might play three quarters if Aaron Rodgers

02:42is out to aim to get one touchdown pass,

02:44let's just say to Devante Adams.

02:46So when you're looking on that back end of it,

02:48are the Jets actually improving once Aaron Rodgers leaves

02:51in a cold environment with a quarterback

02:53that can actually avoid a pass rush

02:55that's coming out of him today.

02:56So I'm with you guys.

02:57I think the Jets pound for pound, man for man

02:59are the better team, but what is that organization

03:02going to do to sabotage this football game

03:04to make sure they don't win to get a better draft pick

03:07for a new coach and a new GM?

03:08I'm telling you, everything you said is fantastic.

03:12This is insane that the Dolphins are going

03:15for a playoff spot and the Jets are significantly

03:18more interesting going into this game.

03:20You hit all the right topics, Donnie.

03:23Nobody cares.

03:24Nobody wants them to win.

03:26Nobody.

03:27They don't want to win, I don't think.

03:29Like Tyreek Hale is probably going to be checking

03:31that Chiefs Broncos thing out there

03:33and if all of a sudden KC's pulled off an upset

03:35he's going to be getting coached again.

03:36He does the A-B in the same stadium.

03:39It is so incredible to me

03:42that that is where the Dolphins are.

03:44So let me not waste any more of their time in it.

03:47I was talking with someone yesterday who said to me

03:49they think Aaron Rodgers is playing

03:50his last career football game today.

03:53And it might sound crazy

03:55but sometimes things are out of your hands.

03:58You know, Bill Belichick is not at North Carolina

04:00by his own doing.

04:03It is possible that Aaron Rodgers is playing

04:05his last career NFL game today, Joe.

04:07It's very on the board.

04:09It is and think about, you know, Joe Flacco, right?

04:11That had a one year hiatus, right?

04:14Nobody wanted Joe Flacco and he was a little bit younger

04:17and didn't have the significant injury

04:18that Aaron Rodgers has but he's a cancer to the locker room.

04:22Who wants Aaron Rodgers?

04:23Even if you're a team like, I'll just throw it out,

04:26Indianapolis or Jacksonville and I know they're solidified

04:29with their quarterback positions

04:31but at the end of the day, a beaten down franchise,

04:33Tennessee, do you wanna have Aaron Rodgers

04:36in your locker room that can't get along with anybody?

04:39That doesn't elevate anybody around him?

04:41He just wants it his way or no way

04:44and then the team is just mired in mediocrity?

04:47Yeah, there's no way that this is Aaron Rodgers'

04:49last game in the NFL.

04:50He needs that spotlight way more than we believe.

04:53Somebody is going to give him an opportunity

04:55at a cheap number.

04:56He's gonna be able to convince that organization.

04:57I'm the missing piece and let's move forward.
