Those fans hoping to see the new York Jets select Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza in the NFL draft with the first overall pick won’t be thrilled with the way things have played out in recent days.  Even after losing yesterday’s meeting with the Patriots, the Jets are unlikely to have a shot at Mendoza. https://api.spreaker.com/v2/episodes/69243781/download.mp3 With the Raiders losing their game to the New York Giants, they hop up to pick  number 1 and realistically, need a quarterback just as badly as the Jets do.  Sure, they’ve got Geno Smith, but he’s a quarterback at a point in his career where he should be replaced.  Head coach Pete Carroll’s future with the Raiders is uncertain which could mean a full reboot in Vegas with a new head coach and QB.  And what better time to do it than when you have the top pick in the draft? Some have suggested the Jets “trade up no matter what the cost”, but that assumes the QB needy Raiders are dying to swap places with the QB needy Jets and move forward without a signal caller of their own. While it is possible the Oregon QB Dante Moore could declare, the Jets will have to ask themselves if they’d be willing to hand the franchise over to yet another inexperienced college quarterback.  Given how things worked out with Mark Sanchez, Sam Darnold’s first few seasons and Zach Wilson, that could mean extending their playoff drought a few years closer to the two-decade mark. It’s never easy with the Jets, and things just got a lot harder. The post Moving up for top Pick Just got Tougher for Mougey, Jets appeared first on JetNation.com - New York Jets Blog & Forum.

In this heated segment, Marc "Moose" Malusis tackles the ultimate New York Jets dilemma: whether to mortgage the future to move up from the No. 4 spot for Indiana's Heisman-winning quarterback, Fernando Mendoza. Malusis argues passionately that "if you get the quarterback, it's all worth it," regardless of the draft capital surrendered. Reflecting on the organization's past failures with Sam Darnold and Zach Wilson, he challenges the Jets to finally prioritize quarterback development over draft-pick hoarding. With the Giants potentially sitting on the No. 1 pick and already rostered with Jaxson Dart, Malusis explores the possibility of an "all-New York" blockbuster trade that could finally provide the Jets with a 15-year solution under center.

In this segment, Marc Malusis fields a call from "Angel in the Bronx," who expresses deep concern over the New York Jets' history of "throwing rookies to the wolves" too early. Referencing the failed tenures of Sam Darnold and Zach Wilson, the discussion shifts to the potential 2026 top prospect Fernando Mendoza (the recent Indiana Heisman winner). Malusis argues that while the Jets often rush development to spark a "maturation process," the success of a quarterback depends more on the individual player's scouting and the team's internal pressure to win immediately.

Local 12 Digital Sports Columnist and Editor Richard Skinner was joined by Mike Petraglia from CLNS media to analyze the Cincinnati Bengals victory over the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, Dec. 21, 2025.=====================MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Joe Burrow rebounded from his first time being shut out to throw for 309 yards and four touchdowns as the Cincinnati Bengals routed the Miami Dolphins 45-21 on Sunday.Miami (6-9) and Cincinnati (5-10) were both eliminated from playoff contention last week, but the teams insisted they were still motivated for the final three games of the season.It appeared that way in the first half. Cincinnati held a 17-14 halftime lead before blowing the game open with 28 points off four straight Dolphins turnovers.Burrow carved up Miami's defense, completing 25 of 32 throws with a 146.5 passer rating before being replaced by veteran Joe Flacco early in the fourth quarter. Two of Burrow's touchdown passes went to running back Chase Brown, from 9 and 5 yards out. Brown, who finished with 66 yards rushing and 43 receiving, also had a 12-yard touchdown run. All of Brown's TDs came in the third, making him the first player this season with three scores in a single quarter.Ja'Marr Chase caught nine passes for 109 yards. Tee Higgins had an athletic 9-yard touchdown grab in the first quarter. And former Dolphin Mike Gesicki added a 17-yard TD before doing the Griddy front of his old team.In the first start of his career, Dolphins rookie quarterback Quinn Ewers led two scoring drives before throwing a pair of interceptions as Miami unrivaled in the second half for the second straight week.Ewers, who completed 20 of 30 passes for 260 yards, was named Miami's starter earlier this week. The embattled Tua Tagovailoa was benched following last week's poor performance at Pittsburgh, in which he threw his league-leading 15th interception.Ewers, a seventh-round pick out of Texas, has hardly taken any first-team practice reps, instead running the scout team most of the season. That didn't matter much to coach Mike McDaniel, who indicated his standard has not been met from the quarterback position and felt Ewers could provide a spark.Ewers got off to a strong start Sunday. He was 10 of 12 in the first half and was decisive and effective on play-action.Tagovailoa, who led the league in passing in 2023 but has not played up to the four-year, $212.4 million contract extension signed in 2024, was Miami's emergency third quarterback behind Ewers and veteran Zach Wilson.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this high-energy segment, Marc "Moose" Malusis tackles the perennial dysfunction of the New York Jets, a franchise that hasn't seen a playoff game since 2010. Responding to a frustrated caller, Moose argues that despite the organization's history of draft busts like Zach Wilson, they cannot afford to be paralyzed by fear. He highlights Fernando Mendoza, the Heisman-winning standout from Indiana, as the "apple of the eye" for a team that desperately needs a franchise pillar. Malusis breaks down why the Jets must utilize their massive draft capital—bolstered by the trades of Sauce Gardner and Quinnen Williams—to trade up and secure a quarterback who can finally win on a rookie deal. It's a raw look at a fan base tired of excuses and a host demanding the "adults in the room" finally get the most important position in sports right.

This is BT at his most personal, closing his chapter at The Fan with the same fire that ignited a viral movement.

Joe opens the show heated after the Dolphins' ugly Monday Night loss to the Steelers, a game far more lopsided than the 28–15 score suggests. The offense showed zero urgency, Tua Tagovailoa struggled in cold, physical conditions, and familiar narratives about Miami's inability to win big games and in cold weather resurfaced. Omar Kelly and Kyle Crabbs join to break down Tua's limitations, the offense's failures, and why the team abandoned the run, while also praising standout defensive play from Jordyn Brooks. Joe and Hollywood debate whether it's time to see what backup quarterbacks Zach Wilson or Quinn Ewers can do. The show closes with the broader fallout: the Dolphins are eliminated from playoff contention, extending a 25-year drought without a postseason win.

Hollywood and Joe debate whether it's time to see what the Dolphins' backup quarterbacks, Zach Wilson or Quinn Ewers, can do, given Tua Tagovailoa's poor performance.

He also raves about Jordyn Brooks, highlighting his physical, high-energy play. Ultimately, they agree that Monday night's loss erases much of the momentum from the four-game winning streak.

I want everybody to be careful about reading too much - or anything, into preseason games, because they matter exactly as much as Zach Wilson's turquoise jersey number. Preseason games are a month long lie for your eyes. they're the OG AI. They are the NFL's version of a Civil War reenactment. They only look real. Well, unless you believe Skylar Thompson's three touchdown performance over the weekend means the Steelers can now cut Aaron Rodgers. The only thing that matters is whether the guys who'll be on the field don't get hurt before the games start to matter. And yeah, I know - preseason games matter for the guys on the fringe… but that's what scrimmages are for. If football players needed preseason games, how come they don't play 'em in college? Listen, football however you wanna football… but with the season - the actual season - now on the near horizon, I wanna focus on the things that do matter. Or will in January. That's what we'll get into on episode two of Football America!
