Xtina Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 One more radio guy I won’t listen to. Was glad when he left, then they had to bring him back. That voice- ugh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he hasn't been good but after starting 25 games in the NFL you'd think he would have squeaked out at least one 3 TD game. Yeah well when the offensive coordinator refuses to call the good plays it's tough. Just call the good plays!!!!!!!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangerous Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 4 hours ago, MileyCyrusFan said: “Jets finally figured out how to use Zach”. “The Zach revenge tour starts Sunday” “Zach is going to Wally pip Rodgers” How do these guys get on the radio? These guys are also the same ones who were ripping Zach a week ago. Sure it’s still too early to tell if Zach can get a string going but these guys were vicious in their criticism.

It's cause when Zach throws 2 TDs the Jets are normally in the lead and so they start handing it off to Breece every single play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoy listening to Richard Neer as well. I do like that he's on Saturday and Sunday mornings though. It's sort of a quiet time and he's an easy listen. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyLV Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 I agree with him but we will have to see if Saleh allows the offense to continue playing the way they did and if Zach is up to it. I will say this. in his interview this week Zach seemed like a completely different person. Happy confident thoughtful. Excited to see what happens. 2nd most important game in Zach's career Zach has actually played very few mediocre to poor defenses in his career. He gets one tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbatesman Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 4 hours ago, T0mShane said: The FAN hired Spike Eskin out of Philly to head up their content division, and his plan has been to turn the dumb, loud meathead dial up to 11 and see if he can draw in the Jersey Shore crowd that boosted Carton to big ratings. It’s not how the FAN used to do things, but they’re now competing with a lot of better digital programming and they can’t compete head up. Thus, the screaming idiocy of Tierney, Licata, and Tiki. The death rattle is upon them. I’m not usually a get-off-my-lawn type, but I think part of this is generational. If you have a decent voice and a pocketful of #takes, you can make more money in podcasting, so the pool of people willing to make their bones in the radio industry proper is shrinking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, absolutely. In some ways, I feel bad for guys like Licata and Malusis who grinded for decades as producers and overnight fill in guys just to get a chance at hosting a show one day, only to have their chance come when the whole industry is defunct and now they can’t draw a tenth of the audience of a C-list Ringer or Barstool pod hosted by a couple of 26 year olds. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FidelioJet Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 I can't, for the life of me, understand why anyone with a cell phone would still listen to WFAN. There are just so many quality sports podcasts.... Whether you want NY Sports, National Sports or one specific team (i.e. Jets) there are scores of shows for any thing you want. With far few commercials and far less annoying broadcasters. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carton isn’t funny and knows nothing about sports beyond what the average 18 year old frat boy would. Oh and he’s also a Ganaf 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
