  • Rex, we gotta ask you here.

  • What did you make out of two In his first NFL start?

  • Some 100 yards passing, the Dolphins had 145 total yards at one point.

  • Rex.

  • It was 28 7 Dolphins.

  • And to get to those 28 points, they had had 61 yards total on offense.

  • In other words, defense still works in this league, huh?

  • No, it sure does.

  • But when you look at it, man, it was It was a great team effort because they had the punt return for a touchdown.

  • Obviously, they had the defense of scoring.

  • They had another one down to the one yard line.

  • So that was it.

  • I've seen this game happened one other time, and I saw it up close and personal.

  • Uh, I remember giving up 100 yards total to the to the Miami Dolphins.

  • Gave up 30 points.

  • So to me, I've seen it before.

  • But making this kid's debut and I started laughing about it and go.

  • You see the impact he had and that team in that locker room, everybody's playing better.

  • Well, that's that's simply not the case.

  • But look, you can't judge this guy on this performance.

  • Certainly they only had eight first outs on offense.

  • So yeah, look, it was It's tough and and and and I know it could be a while.

  • He's not the guy They should go back to.

  • Ryan Fitzpatrick.

  • One thing I know Ryan Fitzpatrick ain't the answer.

  • 16 years of it, they said, Well, this team's a playoff team.

  • If Ryan Fitzpatrick's quarterback, What?

  • He's never been to the playoffs in 16 years.

  • So I understand the move of going to to a here.

  • But, you know, to me it it is a little scary.

  • It's like, Dude, we know The durability is a huge question.

  • And, man, he looks short in that pocket.

  • And in the NFL, it's hard to be a short, non mobile quarterback, But we'll see.

  • I mean, you know, hopefully he'll get an opportunity.

  • Thio, you know, throw the ball a little more next week.

  • Yeah, they got out with the W.

  • So I guess that's really that matters the most, right?

  • Rex, let me ask you this question.

  • D K.

  • Metcalf continues to campaign for Russell Wilson uh M v P Award.

  • When you look at his post game presser yesterday.

  • M v p.

  • Russ, but Patrick Mahomes lit it up five touchdowns over 400 yards in the air.

  • Best day of his NFL career.

  • Where do these two guys stack up in terms of the M V P race?

  • Oh, my goodness.

  • You know, like like Patrick Mahomes already won the M v p.

  • Can we give Russell a little love?

  • He's never had a single vote for M v.

  • P.

  • And I'm like d came back at D came back.

  • You know, key.

  • He's he looks like you.

  • I don't wanna know if this man, if this man says easy, EVP I'm not I'm not gonna argue with him.

  • So, too, May I hope Russell Wilson finally gets some votes, at least for EVP.

  • But Patrick Mahomes, It's like it's sick every single week.

  • Duties.

  • My fantasy quarterback.

  • I feel pretty good about him, and in reality, he's pretty darn good to.

  • And by the way, with D K.

  • It stands to reason.

  • His greatest.

  • He's been offensively so far.

  • The take away play of his career has been a chase down on special teams to show you how well rounded this kid is.

  • Rex will see on.

  • Get up at 8 a.m. Eastern with greeny and the gang this morning on ESPN.

  • Thank you.

  • Thank you.

  • My pleasure, guys.

  • All Rex.

  • It's great.

  • Deb.

  • Rex Ryan with us.

  • Uh, this morning key.

  • You want to get into the M v p discussion?

  • Because it's the question you just asked Rex Russell Wilson bouncing back after that performance against the 40 Niners, you're gonna have a blip.

  • Mahomes.

  • 405 touchdowns against the worst team in the league.

  • It's neck and neck.

  • This was a horse race, right to be a photo finish, and we still got half the season to go.

  • It's neck and neck, but you can't count out Aaron Rodgers.

  • He Even though he lost yesterday, he's still hovering.

  • I mean, he's around.

  • Just that when you look at Patrick Mahomes just I mean, it was the Jets.

  • Okay, that's where you start.

  • But he did what he was supposed to do, like their ass up, and that's what he was supposed to do.

  • And leaving a bill had to feel good after the game, whether he contributed or not.

  • But when you look at Russell Wilson, he didn't play well against Arizona.

  • He played well enough to win the game.

  • But yet still, the turnovers is what stood out to most people.

  • But then yesterday, he just he was just Russell Wilson.

  • I mean, that's what he waas legit, legit, like this team, legit offensive firepower comes with Russell Wilson, where in the past j will.

  • It was all about the defense, the defense, the defense and much like Rex mentioned in all of his career.

  • He's never had one single person say M v P vote, not one person Remarkable.

  • Not one absurd eso.

  • You know, if he continues this pace because he's out in front already, I think he gets the nod if he continues to play a swell as he's been playing.

  • All that talk that people were saying about Seattle's defense, their defense showed up yesterday, Right?

  • They're going to agree with Dunlap.

  • You don't have Dunlop yet.

  • It comes back next weekend.

  • That's in the trade.

  • You also got Jamal Adams that comes back off injury, potentially next week.

  • Look, I think this team is trending in the right direction.

  • I still have Pat Mahomes, number one.

  • I just look 21 TDs, one.

  • I m t.

  • His mother said.

  • Patrick Man Patrick.

  • One i n t.

  • One interception 21 touchdowns.

  • Just It's the quarterback rating.

  • All of that is just off the charts, and I feel like with all the weapons they have, it's gonna be interesting.

  • Come down to the stretch I have Patrick Mahomes, number one.

  • Russell number two.
