torn Achilles four snaps into the Jets career last season meanwhile Lamar Jackson and the Ravens open against a familiar foe Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs who knocked them out of last year's playoffs in the AFC title game this time they'll meet in Kansas City and Joe burrow will return from a season ending wrist injury before week one against the Patriots before Showdown with the Chiefs week two in KC bur is the only player other than Tom Brady to beat momes in a playoff game our quarterback galovski back here with us Dan who's the quarterback uh who has the highest expectations this season yeah it's Patrick Mahomes uh one we all would be this man the highest expectations Shannon expectations are Patrick Mahomes one we all would be somewhat surprised if Kansas City doesn't get back to the Super Bowl somewhat surprised not shocked but like oh man someone finally Kansas City and Patrick so one they're the favorites Shannon are they the favorites in the AFC Shannon are they the favorites yes go ahead goe I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry D I'm sorry okay so Kansas City are the favorites in the AFC not shocked if someone knocks him off favorites number two the expectations are that he's going to do something that's never done been done before win three straight Super Bowls okay three if we're being honest about the football team I don't know anybody in the AFC that definitively has a better roster than Kansas City Houston Cleveland is really good but top to bottom roster the expectations are that Kansas City's roster is as good as anybody he's a Hall of Famer he's got a Hall of Fame tight end he's got a Hall of Fame coach he's got a Hall of Fame defensive player and he's got a guy that's probably one of the best big game defensive Minds in football over the past couple Generations in Steve spagnolo so while there are a lot of people at play to knock them off the expectations that Patrick Mahomes are facing those are the highest in the NFL cuz we expect him to be MVP and Super Bowl champion at the end of the day Dan how you gonna say a man that's won three Super Bowls in a four-year span he's a two-time league MVP he has a 50 pass touchdown season he has two 5,000 yard seasons he's been a three time he's been a three-time Super Bowl MVP he's 15 and three and he's under the gun the most no I said he has the highest he's trying to do something he's he's he's trying to accomplish something that's never been done the closest that's ever been cut to a threee is the 49ers lost in 90 in the NFC Championship Game to the Giants with a on a fumble and then the Giants kick the field goal and end up winning the Super Bowl I think the guy that's that has the biggest expectations is Aaron Rogers because you told us earlier now Stephen you see how he done flip he said earlier Aaron Rogers was under the greatest expectations that's what you told that's what you said if it's a lie you told it now we can go back and run the tap I never said that because you switched it no the question was hold on hold on put me on camera put me the qu the question was which quarterback needs to beat Patrick Mahomes the most and to that is where he mentioned Aaron Rogers right and he said he's under the greatest expect we GNA play the tap back but anyway here's the thing Aaron Rogers I've heard for the last three years that if the Jets had a quarterback with that defense and that coaching staff this is a Super Bowl team well you get a quarterback that's a four-time league MVP that's a former Super Bowl champion who's one of the greatest throwers of the football in the history of the game you have that you have that outstanding defense coached by Robert solah you've got Garrett Wilson you've got weapons you got Breeze Hall who's a year removed further from that knee injury you have the quarterback that you've been telling us for the last three years you told us that Zack Wilson you told us that white all those guys are terrible if we just had a competent where Aaron Rogers is more than competent I believe Aaron Rodgers is under the greatest expectations given the roster that the Jets have because he said it himself there's 8 to 12 teams that's in the mix for the Super Bowl and we're one of those 8 to2 Dan olowski makes me sick sometimes you really do I'mma tell you why I'm G tell you why it makes me sick okay I say that affectionately because that's my brother here's the thing Dan olowski you know good and damn well what we mean by that question what you did was you interpreted it in a literal sense so you could influence the narrative we all know that when you think about Patrick Mahomes because of how great he is anything is Super Bowl or failure because he has the potential to deliver you multiple Super Bowl championships because he already has in six years he won six AFC Title Games he's won a division all six years he's been to four Super Bowls he's won three it could have easily been five Super Bowls or whatever we know all of this already but when the question is asked about highest expectations you know that what we're asking of essentially who got to deliver who got to show up and get it done who is the microscope on because guess what it's a pressure cooker for you you don't take the some of the great ones that have already won you take that for granted of course we expect the road to the Super Bowl to have to go through Patrick Mahomes but when you talk about expectations in other words who better live up to them who better answer the call Patrick Mahomes can fail we ain't going to lose no sleep over it if he loses okay this wasn't your year you didn't three repat oh my Lord the world is going to end no ain't nobody thinking like that okay you can't win all the time Lamar Jackson gotta win now say that much Lamar Jackson's knocking on the door you a two-time league MVP you were in the AFC title game for the first time in your career last year Z flowers doesn't get stripped to the football who knows what opport who knows what the outcome may have been in that AFC title game we get all of that but in the end you got to show up and you got to find way to get it done so we can validate mentioning you potentially in the same breath as a Patrick Mahomes in terms of who Patrick Mahomes has to compete with for AFC Supremacy right now is Joe burrow a few years ago it was Josh Allen we were looking at Josh Allen and saying Josh Allen that dude and then Joe burrow came into the mix and took him out okay and then ultimately beat Patrick Mahomes in the AFC title game and he went on to the Super Bowl so if you're Lamar Jackson having Patrick Mahomes ahead of you is no crime but having Joe burrow within the division deemed to be superior to you could be problematic so when we talk about expectations we're like yo man we expect you to be great you got to show us and validate that that's what we're looking at Mar Lamar Jackson is saying and that's what we mean when we ask such a question okay so my deepest apologies for taking it literal I've been on this show many of times when the question has been quarterback with the most pressure on him and to that answer I've always said it's really Aaron Rogers and DeShaun Watson when it comes to this season but the quarterback facing the highest expectations is the literal question and that's momes I mean is it not fair to say that he led them on the backs of an unbelievable defense but led them to the Super Bowl with a subpar pass catching unit last year we have all watched this off season the addition of wood Brown and then the trade with the Buffalo Bills and they draft Xavier worthy out of Texas spee spee spee for Fore spee fore speee speee foree foree spe spee for spee fore fore fore
