1 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:07,640 Speaker 1: This is the Patriots Catch twenty two podcasts with Evan 2 00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:09,400 Speaker 1: Lazar and Alex Bars. 3 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:11,440 Speaker 2: And Lazarre. 4 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 1: Hello, everybody nailed it? Joined us always buy ours Bar. 5 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: Here is Evan Lazar and Alex Bars. You don't want 6 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:23,320 Speaker 1: them to have running backs. You don't want them to 7 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 1: I don't want them to wrap them high. You want 8 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:27,760 Speaker 1: them to take a guy in the seventh round, Yes, 9 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 1: and for him to run for two point three yards 10 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:31,639 Speaker 1: for carrying them because you'd rather they never run the 11 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,120 Speaker 1: ball ever, because that's what the nerd mas hell know. 12 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:36,960 Speaker 1: They are going to run the ball. They need a 13 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:37,639 Speaker 1: good running back. 14 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:45,919 Speaker 3: An age old discussion of do running backs matter? That 15 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 3: I think we've been arguing about do running backs matter 16 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 3: since twenty eighteen? Yes, maybe since the day we started 17 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 3: working together. And I stand by my take on that. 18 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 3: But we don't have to argue about that anymore. It's Emilzar, 19 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 3: Alex Bars Patriots Catch twenty two. Here with you on 20 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:09,960 Speaker 3: a Tuesday, because of course Thursday is July fourth, big day. 21 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 3: I think July fourth is your favorite day of the year. 22 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 1: July fourth and Thanksgiving those are probably my two favorite holidays, 23 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: the most American holidays. Well, it's think about it, you're 24 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: just kind of sitting around. There's good food one where 25 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 1: the other, either Thanksgiving dinner or barbecue, just kind of 26 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 1: hanging out Thanksgiving his football. Fourth of July is the beach, 27 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: Like that's that's all I need. I'll play some golf. 28 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 1: Are you? 29 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 3: Are you a cookout holiday guy or Thanksgiving? We're not Christmas? 30 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,839 Speaker 1: But well that's what I'm saying. I they're both good. 31 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,959 Speaker 1: They're both good. It's food, man. I'm gonna make some 32 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 1: wings this year. I feel like I prefer Mom makes 33 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 1: really good steak tips every year on the fourth. 34 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I'm ana. I might be a Thanksgiving. 35 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: Guy, but you don't. But you don't like turkey. 36 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 3: You know what, though, we we've made our own turkey 37 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 3: the last couple of years and maybe we're getting there. 38 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 1: It's it's you gotta have a homemade turkey. 39 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 3: No, we always had a homemade turkey growing up. But 40 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 3: I'm just saying Jess and I have made the turkey ourselves, 41 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,959 Speaker 3: and it's it's better than what I remember. Okay, I 42 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 3: don't want to put I don't want to throw anybody 43 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 3: under the bus that might be listening in my family. 44 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 3: I don't want to point and say that anybody is 45 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 3: doesn't know how to cook or anything like that. But 46 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 3: I come from a family, especially my mom's side. I'm 47 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,359 Speaker 3: just gonna do it on my mom's side of the family. 48 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 3: And I know nobody cares about this, but. 49 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,359 Speaker 1: Can you tell it's the middle of the off season. 50 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 3: Exactly that any sort of seasoning on the food is 51 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:49,799 Speaker 3: considered spicy, you know, any pepper, any anything like that. 52 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 1: Okay, so that, yes, that would explain why you didn't 53 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: like turkey for all those years. 54 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I think any type of anything that could 55 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 3: possibly be mistaken for a kick in terms of spice 56 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 3: and food is out. 57 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: I think when it comes to because when it comes 58 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: down to holidays, for me, it's food. Like how good 59 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: a holiday is directly in line with what the food 60 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: is are with that. Thanksgiving it's always I mean, that's 61 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 1: the basis of the holiday. It's always good. The fourth 62 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 1: of July. You can have a really good kickout cookout. 63 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,359 Speaker 1: But there are also years where you're at the beach 64 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: all day whatever, you just get back to all right, 65 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: just throw the burgers on the girl, Like I don't 66 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 1: want to deal with all of this, so it can 67 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 1: be more hit and miss, but you know, I again, 68 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,679 Speaker 1: sit on the beach, eat some barbecue. I love the 69 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: hawtth Dog Eating Contest, although Joey Chestnut's not in it 70 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: this year, so I'm bummed about that, but I'll still 71 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,119 Speaker 1: watch it. I think Matt Stoney is the local guy, 72 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 1: so I'm rooting for him. But yeah, solid, any holiday 73 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 1: that you just sit around and do nothing and you 74 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: don't actually have to do anything is a good holiday 75 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 1: in my book. 76 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 3: I agree with that, like I can't disagree with that. 77 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 3: I I I really do think that I would prefer 78 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 3: to be on a beach, but I prefer the Thanksgiving meal. 79 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 3: I don't know if that makes sense. 80 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: It does, but you couldn't do both because a Thanksgiving 81 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: meal after sitting on the beach would knock you out. 82 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 1: Like Thanksgiving is couch all day, Football's on TV. That's 83 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: the one thing the Fourth of July does not have. 84 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 1: Sports is sports. And I've said this for years. What 85 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: baseball should do is they should treat like the NBA 86 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 1: has Christmas, the NFL has Thanksgiving and now Christmas. The 87 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 1: NHL in New Year's the NHL has New Year's. College 88 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,160 Speaker 1: football has New Year's Eve, New Year's Day, right, Basketball 89 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 1: has March. Baseball needs their holiday. And I get it's 90 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: different because it's the summer and people are outside. But 91 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 1: some years it rains or there's gonna be people that 92 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: want to, you know, checking it out. What I would 93 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: do is every year, it doesn't have to be all 94 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 1: thirty teams, but I would find big rivalries, either historic 95 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: rivalries Red Sox Yankees right, or World Series rematch. They 96 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: do the NBA Finals rematch a lot on Christmas, and 97 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: you'd start like Red Sox Yankees noon fourth of July 98 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: every year they alternate the home team. Then maybe you 99 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: do like like Phillies Mets in like the three o'clock window. 100 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,359 Speaker 1: You could do Cubs Cardinals at five o'clock and with 101 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: Giants Dodgers, or with Dodgers Padres or whatever like ye, 102 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: I would just have through the day noon three six 103 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: or noon three seven and ten. I would just have 104 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: marquee games throughout the day and make them all rivalries, 105 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: make them all big games, make it a spectacle. Do 106 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: special uniforms. That's something I missed about football and Thanksgiving 107 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 1: used to always be throwbacks on Thanksgiving. Remember that in 108 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 1: the NBA too, they would do special uniforms. So I 109 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:47,840 Speaker 1: think baseball should do that. Again, is you can tell 110 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 1: where the depth of the NFL offseason. Well that's a 111 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: take just one last thing on this. Yeah, baseball doesn't 112 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 1: do that because baseball doesn't know how to market its 113 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 1: own sports. Oh yeah, no, that's what I'm saying. 114 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're they're probably the worst at it. The NBA 115 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 3: did disappoint me though this year, within the finals especially, 116 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 3: But there was nothing special about the finals broadcast. 117 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: The court. 118 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,479 Speaker 3: Remember the court, they just have the big larreo. 119 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: But apparently it was slippery and we don't have the 120 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 1: technology I guess to make it not slippery, or or. 121 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 3: The the intros. Remember how intense Oh yeah, intros used 122 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 3: to be in the pyrotechnics and you know all it 123 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 3: was just a spectacle like the super Bowl. This is 124 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 3: this is something bigger than you know, just your standard 125 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:35,119 Speaker 3: Wednesday night regular season game. They just completely forgot about 126 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 3: that this year and it just was terrible. And we had, 127 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,159 Speaker 3: you know, the stupid floating YouTube TV graphic and that 128 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 3: was it. 129 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: They didn't even use Usually they do a different so 130 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: the score bug for those you know who did something 131 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: besides communications of cos, the score bug is this. It's 132 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: called this. It's with the scoreboard on the bottom of 133 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 1: the screen, on the corner of the screen. It's called 134 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 1: They usually do a special score bug for the finals, 135 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,359 Speaker 1: but they used it this year for the Eastern Conference Finals. 136 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: It wasn't even that it's brutal. Hey, Patriots fans. 137 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 3: If you want to see Toyota's best offers, including those 138 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 3: not seen on TV, go to buy Toyota dot com. 139 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 3: It's Toyota's official website for deals for the official vehicle 140 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 3: of the New England Patriots, Toyota.

So in terms of the Patriots, now, 153 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 3: yesterday was quite the day in Boston sports, but in 154 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 3: terms of the Patriots, there's not a ton to talk about. 155 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,679 Speaker 3: So web Radio at Patriots dot com is the email address. 156 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 3: You can call in eight five to five, Pats five hundred. 157 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 3: You can ask questions either of those ways. You can 158 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 3: hit me up on Twitter, you can hit us up 159 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 3: in the YouTube chat, and we will throw a bunch 160 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 3: of questions at answers that you guys from your questions 161 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 3: over the next couple of hours here, and we'll probably 162 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 3: mix in some non football stuff too, because there's a 163 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 3: ton going on in the city of Boston right now 164 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 3: in terms of sports. So that's what we're gonna do. 165 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 3: I think a good place to start those with my 166 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 3: Twitter replies here to the tweet I sent out this 167 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 3: morning asking for questions, and I think that there's some 168 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 3: good ones in here, so we can start here. And 169 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 3: there's one Jersey related question that I know you're gonna 170 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 3: you want to sink your teeth into, but I think 171 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 3: that the number one sort of theme of questions that 172 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 3: we got, we're mostly personnel related as you would expect 173 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 3: from our show. But I think that there's a couple 174 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:58,679 Speaker 3: of questions about the big picture of the team right 175 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 3: now and just sort of setting the tape of the 176 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 3: big picture of the team. And the number one question 177 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 3: that I saw in here from Cody, he asks, do 178 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 3: we think it's more likely that coach Mayo is gone 179 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 3: within three years or the Patriots win the AFC East 180 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:21,959 Speaker 3: within three years? So this question to me is, if 181 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 3: you just go by the odds and just go by 182 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 3: the percentages, it probably overwhelmingly favors that Girodd Mayo would 183 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 3: be gone within three years, because that's just the nature 184 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 3: of the beast right of the cycle. I would also 185 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 3: throw in there, and you might disagree with this, but 186 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 3: you're gonna have to go be better and go through 187 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 3: Josh Allen in order to win the division. So in 188 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 3: order to win the division the next three years, right, 189 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 3: maybe in the next five years or ten years it 190 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,079 Speaker 3: would be a different conversation with Alan, but by in 191 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 3: the next three years, it's his division until proven otherwise. 192 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 3: But no, it's not because he won the division five 193 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 3: years in a row. 194 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 1: And they've got they got rid of half the team. 195 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 1: This offseason, they got rid of the wide receiver that 196 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 1: turned him into the player he is. He had a 197 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: he regressed last year. I don't. That doesn't mean the 198 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,680 Speaker 1: Patriots automatically gonna win the division. I think going into 199 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: this season, the AFC East is wide open. It doesn't 200 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: mean I would pick the Patriots to win it. I 201 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 1: still think they're the fourth most likely, But I think 202 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 1: the Dolphins and Jets is all assuming health. The Dolphins 203 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 1: and Jets just have as have just as strong of 204 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: the case to win the AFC East as the Buffalo Bills. 205 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: Do you really believe that, Yes, they don't have a 206 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: better quarterback. Jets might just see what kind of condition 207 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 1: Rodgers and the Jets might When last time we saw 208 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: Rogers healthy, he was better than he's Josh Allen without 209 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 1: all the picks. 210 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 3: That's crazy. He was not better than Josh Allen. And 211 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 3: the last time we saw Aaron Rodgers. 212 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: The last time we saw him engaged that last year 213 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: in Green Bay. Doesn't get it's Brady and remember Brady 214 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 1: in nineteen and then he went to Tampa and suddenly 215 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 1: he had like a reason to commit. Yes, that's fair. 216 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: I the Bills are definitely also the rest of that roster, 217 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: the rest of that roster, they completely tore it apart. 218 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 1: They completely there is Stefan Diggs ain't walking through that door. 219 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 1: Micah Hyde ain't walking through that door. Okay, but that's 220 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:14,839 Speaker 1: not how they look at it. 221 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 3: I understand where you're coming from, and so I so 222 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 3: they don't look at it like they tore the roster. 223 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 1: Who are they the Bills? The Bills are looking I 224 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,080 Speaker 1: don't care of the Bills look at it. The Bills 225 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:26,959 Speaker 1: looked at the Bills look at it like they've already 226 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: won five Super Bowls the way they oper. 227 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,199 Speaker 3: Okay, but I'm just telling you that the Bills look 228 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 3: at it like they cut the veteran dead weight from 229 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,680 Speaker 3: the top of the roster and they're recycling or kind 230 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 3: of you know what's the word transitioning here to a 231 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:39,680 Speaker 3: different type of ross. 232 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: Good for them, congratulations, that can be how they see it. 233 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,319 Speaker 1: They got rid of good players and didn't replace them. 234 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 1: That's not necessarily true, though, They just replaced them with 235 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: younger guys. Like what if they're younger, unproven players. 236 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, but what if they're right, Like what if they're 237 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 3: right that there guys that they got rid of were 238 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 3: aged out of the program, and they recycled the roster 239 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 3: and they turned it over and instead of Stefan Diggs 240 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 3: at thirty two years old, they now have Keon Coleman 241 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 3: on a rookie contract. 242 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: Like what if? They're just right about some of the TXT, 243 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 1: But that's what did you say at the beginning there? 244 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:13,199 Speaker 1: What if? What if? What if? But you're also operating 245 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 1: on what if too, Like you're saying what if you 246 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: you said it's the Bill's division to lose. What I'm 247 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 1: telling you is they have what ifs that are as 248 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,839 Speaker 1: major as the Jets and Dolphins. 249 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 3: Okay, I still until somebody what if it throns the Bills. 250 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 3: They have won the division every year since. 251 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 1: They want to buy. Like the game last year Rogers 252 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 1: wasn't healthy. The division's been bad. 253 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 3: Okay, we're not doing the division. I just for twenty years. 254 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 3: I don't think. I look, could the Bills win the division? Absolutely? 255 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,199 Speaker 1: I don't think it's automatic if we were to go 256 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: through the divisions in the NFL, I don't think the 257 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: AFC East is towards the top of the most obvious 258 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 1: division winners. 259 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 3: No, but that's I think probably more because even though 260 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 3: the Bills are the favorite to win the division, Miami 261 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 3: in the in the Jets are also favorite to. 262 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 1: Make the play. 263 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,559 Speaker 3: So there's a difference that they have three good teams 264 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 3: within the division that all could you know, injuries break 265 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 3: their way, whatever, there's any difference. When flip goes their way, 266 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,440 Speaker 3: then maybe the Jets win the division instead of the Bills. 267 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 1: By the game, there's a difference between being the favorite 268 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 1: and it being their division. 269 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 3: That's the difference. I know why you're so offended by that. 270 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 3: They won the division four years in a row. 271 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,199 Speaker 1: And they got worse. They won the division four years 272 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: in a row in large part because of guys like 273 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs. This goes back to my whole take about 274 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,719 Speaker 1: the Bills that Josh Allen, Josh Allen, Josh Allen, none 275 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 1: of those other guys ever get enough credit because God 276 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: forbid we say anything other than Josh Allen Superman. Now, 277 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: those guys aren't there. If Josh Allen really is the Superman, 278 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: which I think if he was, they would have won 279 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: a little more in the postseason. But if Josh Allen 280 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 1: really is this Superman, they'll be fine. I don't like 281 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 1: the way people overlook the different Stefan Diggs made I 282 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:55,839 Speaker 1: don't I like Stefan Diggs. I think he's a really 283 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:59,559 Speaker 1: good player. I think he under year he made a 284 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 1: huge difference with the Bills. 285 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 3: But there was definitely last year there was a an 286 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,959 Speaker 3: ending like there was like you could collect clearly, I'm 287 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 3: not saying not only was he maybe a step slower 288 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,439 Speaker 3: than he had been in the past, but the relationship 289 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 3: there with the organization was certainly. 290 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: On the way out. 291 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 3: As we see with wide receivers for generations, at some 292 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 3: point almost every single diva wide receiver out where you're welcome, 293 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 3: and that's what happened with Stefon Diggs. 294 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 1: I hear you. 295 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 3: With the Bills, they are in a direction right now 296 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 3: where it's twofold. One is to your point that they 297 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 3: are hoping that Josh Allen is Superman and he is 298 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 3: going to be like Tom Brady was for the Patriots, 299 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 3: not obviously win six Super Bowls, but he's going to 300 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 3: be a guy that we can put Stefan Diggs and 301 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 3: Cole Beasley and Dawson Knox with him, or we can 302 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 3: put Keon Coleman and you know, Khalio Secure and Dalton 303 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 3: Kincaid with him. And Josh Allen is still going to 304 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 3: put up numbers because he's you know, so that part 305 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 3: of the roster doesn't necessarily matter. I mean, the Patriots 306 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 3: did this for years, that they would just rely on 307 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 3: Brady to elevate the offense and be the reason why 308 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 3: the offense scored points. The Bills are going through a 309 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 3: similar transition now as what I was without the titles. 310 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 3: I get that, But they're going through a similar transition 311 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 3: now as the Patriots did in like eight oh nine, 312 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 3: twenty ten, right where the original dynasty Patriots aged out, 313 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 3: you know, the Bruce Kis and the Vray Boles, and 314 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 3: the McGuinness on the defensive side of the ball, the 315 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 3: Troy Browns, you know, Deon Branch, like those guys aged out. 316 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 3: So Belichick what did he do? He essentially did a reboot, 317 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 3: a mini rebuild on the fly because he had Brady, 318 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 3: who was at floor was like ten wins, so they 319 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 3: didn't need to necessarily crater, you know, or bought them 320 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 3: out because they had Brady. Right now, I feel like 321 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 3: the Bills are doing a similar thing. They didn't win 322 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 3: like and. 323 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 1: This is what I would say, this is where the 324 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 1: delusion of the Buffalo Bills comes in because you know 325 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 1: who else sort of did that as the Kansas City Chiefs. 326 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: So the Bills are trying to mimic something that the 327 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: greatest coach of all time, uh, probably the greatest coach 328 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 1: currently in the league, because Bill's not in the league. 329 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: I'm talking about Andy Reid and the greatest quarterback of 330 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 1: all time, the best quarterback in the league have done. 331 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Josh Allen is not Patrick Mahomes, He's not 332 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 1: Tom Brady, Sean McDermott. How do you feel about Sean 333 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: McDermott pulling this off? He's alienated everybody in that building, 334 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 1: everybody he I don't think he has what it takes 335 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: to pull it off. Okay, So that if I was 336 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: to go back to the original question, though, to go 337 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: back to the original question, because I did have a 338 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 1: thought on that, you know, it was what is more 339 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 1: likely to happen within three years Jrod Mayo gets fired 340 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: or the Patriot's been the division. I think that it's 341 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: possible that neither happens. Yeah, I what if they're like 342 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 1: a really competitive like not this year, but what if 343 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: by the time you get to year three, they're like 344 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: a really competitive wildcard team, and they're right there knocking 345 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: on the door. I don't think like you're not gonna 346 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 1: fire Mayo at that point. But they even though they 347 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 1: still have't won the division. So I don't think it's 348 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 1: an either or. I feel like people have kind of 349 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 1: pictured it as an either or and labeled it as 350 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 1: an either or. I don't think it's quite an either or. 351 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 3: That's fair, that's fair. I am fascinated by this division though, 352 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 3: because it's all three of the teams that should be 353 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,159 Speaker 3: vying to win the division. Because I don't think the Patriot. 354 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 3: I think we all agree the Patriots aren't there yet. Yeah, 355 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,439 Speaker 3: but all the three teams, they all have something that 356 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 3: is a glaring potential Achilles heel. The Bills are turning 357 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 3: over the roster. We just broke it down. 358 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. 359 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 3: But I also think that you pointed to Sean McDermott, who, 360 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 3: if you ask me, has a hotter but than any 361 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 3: coach in the league. 362 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 1: Absolutely going into the season. 363 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 3: Absolutely, If they don't, if they don't at least make 364 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 3: a run in the playoffs this year, then Sean McDermott 365 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 3: at some point has to be out. 366 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:51,479 Speaker 1: So I has to be out. I love to give 367 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: this stat about Kyle Shanahan, and we don't need to 368 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 1: go down to the Shanahan note, but it applies to McDonough, 369 00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 1: not McDonough mc dermott as well, the two because they're 370 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,439 Speaker 1: both hired the same year. The two coaches that have 371 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,400 Speaker 1: been with their team the longest without a championship are 372 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 1: McDermott and Shanahan and their approach, and this is gonna 373 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: be I think year's seven year eight for them. We've 374 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 1: been over the list of the coaches that have been 375 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: with the team ten years without winning a Super Bowl one. 376 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: It's not a long list. Generally, you don't get that 377 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: much of a leash, even if you're getting close. 378 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,199 Speaker 3: Well, because Shanahan's made two Super Bowls, so like his 379 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 3: leash has been because he has had some success, I mean, 380 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 3: much more than McDermott's success at least. 381 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,160 Speaker 1: Oh well, that's why I make this take more about 382 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:36,880 Speaker 1: Shanahan than McDermott, because I think the way Shanahan has 383 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: talked about people don't put McDermott in the same and 384 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:47,159 Speaker 1: they shouldn't. Like, Uh, Shannhan's better coach, yeah than McDermott is. 385 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 1: And I'm not even I'm not going to debate that. 386 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 1: But you go back to that list right and here 387 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: it is Marv Levy, Marv Lewis, that's Shanahan or sorry, 388 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: Marv Levy, Shannon, Marv Lewis, Ted March brought to Jeff 389 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 1: fish or Dan Reeves, Jason Garrett, Andy Reid and Philly, 390 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 1: Dennis Green and Jim More. That's kind of the list. 391 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: Mike Holmgren was in Seattle for ten years without a title, 392 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: but he previously won one in Green Bay, so he 393 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 1: at least had it on his resume. Like, that's that's 394 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 1: the list you're looking towards, and we can argue about 395 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 1: whether or not Shanahan fits on that list. I think 396 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: there's really two tiers to that list. Sean McDermott absolutely 397 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 1: belongs on that list right now, and I don't. The 398 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 1: difference is I don't think he gets it ten years. 399 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 1: I don't think he does. No. No, I if he 400 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: assuming he doesn't. If he wins, If he wins one, 401 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 1: he'll be the coach for life. 402 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,399 Speaker 3: But yeah, for all of his faults with Kyle Shannon, 403 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 3: I don't mean to go down the Kyle Shanahan road. 404 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 1: No, it's very much tied to avoid that. 405 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 3: Kyle Shanahan is two fourth quarters away from from winning. 406 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 1: Two Super Bowls. 407 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 3: Sean McDermott hasn't touched the super Bowl right, right, So 408 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 3: it's a different conversation. 409 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: Sean McDermot can barely gets to the conference champions right. 410 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 3: All right, But let we can move on from that. 411 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 3: I think we people understand where we're at, Richard kind 412 00:19:59,359 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 3: of connected. 413 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 1: Connected. 414 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,639 Speaker 3: Do you guys believe we'll be picking in the top 415 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,479 Speaker 3: five again next year twenty twenty five draft? 416 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: I do? 417 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:08,919 Speaker 3: With how bad our O line is going to be. 418 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 3: So the reason why I feel like top five pick 419 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,919 Speaker 3: is definitely in play is actually more related to their 420 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 3: schedule than it is their actual personnel on the roster. 421 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 3: They just have an incredibly difficult schedule for a team 422 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 3: that is coming off a four win season that's now rebuilding. 423 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 3: Based off of some of the data that we have 424 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 3: on schedules, they have arguably the most difficult schedule in 425 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:41,439 Speaker 3: the NFL, just when you factor in expected wins by opponents, 426 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 3: where the games are, the travel, all those aspects, when 427 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 3: you put it all into one data point, they have 428 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 3: one of the toughest schedules in the NFL this coming 429 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 3: up season. So when you look at that, I keep 430 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 3: saying this, they could be a three or four win team, 431 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 3: but the product on the field is more representable, more 432 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 3: competitive than it was last season. When you say top 433 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:15,360 Speaker 3: five pick, I can't imagine a worse season from hell 434 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 3: than what they had last year. Yeah, and they still 435 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 3: picked three overall. Right, so you're still you're still talking 436 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 3: about winning a really winning a three or four games 437 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 3: at most to be in the top five. 438 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: It's almost hard to do. 439 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,399 Speaker 3: Like they were so bad last year, and it's still 440 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 3: they were almost vying to not be that eye, right, 441 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 3: and we know about the game in Pittsburgh on Thursday 442 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 3: night and the Christmas Eve game in Denver. 443 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 1: They needed some tie breakers. 444 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 3: They they were right there to being from anywhere to 445 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 3: three to like six or seven towards the end of 446 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 3: the season. And that was with some of the most 447 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,120 Speaker 3: deplorable offensive football I've ever. 448 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 1: Seen at the professional league. 449 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 3: Right, So just put that in perspect I did. The 450 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 3: schedule is really really difficult. I don't think that they 451 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,919 Speaker 3: will be a top five teams solely because the roster 452 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 3: talent doesn't allow them to win more games. I just 453 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,159 Speaker 3: don't know if they're gonna be ready to win a 454 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 3: competitive game against some of the teams that they're gonna 455 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,439 Speaker 3: be going up against. Hard to find a lot of 456 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,120 Speaker 3: cupcakes or easy wins on the schedule this year. 457 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: So I'll just play spoiler here and I think right 458 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 1: around five, I think they'll pick lower than they did 459 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 1: last year, or like further down, I don't think they'll. 460 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 3: Be I would say that just to finish, like, I 461 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 3: would say that maybe around seven or eight is where 462 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 3: I'm at right now in terms of where they'll be 463 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:36,640 Speaker 3: in the draft order a year from now. 464 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,679 Speaker 1: So would I would put the number like four and 465 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: a half in terms of the draft order, in terms 466 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 1: of the draft pick, like, are they you know, picking 467 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 1: before top four? After just to play Devil's out you 468 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 1: get to what you said about why you think they 469 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 1: will get a top five pick. I look at it, 470 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 1: and they're gonna be part of the reason that they 471 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: were able with four wins to pick top three last year. 472 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,439 Speaker 1: There were a lot of teams last season that just 473 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 1: hung around five hundred. You look at the last place team, 474 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 1: the AFC North won nine games. In the AFC South 475 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: they won six, NFC North they won seven. There were 476 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: a lot of teams hanging around five hundred. There's gonna 477 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 1: be I think there's a lot of teams, Evan that 478 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 1: had really bad offseasons this year or just didn't do enough. 479 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 1: And I look at Arizona. That team could be a disaster. Carolina, 480 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,879 Speaker 1: I don't think that enough. We'll see when Jane Daniels plays. 481 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 1: If he doesn't, Washington could be in the conversation, they're 482 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 1: kind of like the Patriots. The Giants could be a 483 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 1: real mess. The Titans really didn't do anything. 484 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:39,919 Speaker 3: And I thought the Titans did do things. But the 485 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 3: Titans in a way almost did what the Patriots did 486 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,959 Speaker 3: in like twenty twenty one, and they signed Calvin Ridley, 487 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 3: they traded for Lagarious Need. It's kind of bizarre in 488 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 3: my opinion. 489 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 1: First coach, still no quarterback. 490 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 3: It's a really bizarre situation to be investing that much 491 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 3: money in the roster when you still don't really have 492 00:23:58,359 --> 00:23:59,679 Speaker 3: answers to those two questions. 493 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: Right, So I shouldn't say they did nothing, but like 494 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 1: they could be bad. They could be bad. It's an 495 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 1: old team too. They have to totally reinvent themselves. They 496 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 1: lost Eric Henry and the other team all throw in here. 497 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 1: This might surprise some people, and I know they have 498 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,919 Speaker 1: to streak and whatever. I'm really curious to see what 499 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers look like. The Steelers could be a 500 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 1: ten win team, they could be a two win team. 501 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 1: I don't think I'd be surprised either way. But the 502 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:24,360 Speaker 1: point being like, there's gonna be a lot. I think 503 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,680 Speaker 1: there are gonna be more teams in contention for those 504 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 1: top five picks last year, and I have to pull 505 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:37,400 Speaker 1: up Montdraftable for a second, not mont Draftable Tankathon. Last year, 506 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 1: by the time we got to call it, I'll go 507 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,199 Speaker 1: back to Thanksgiving right. Last year, by the time we 508 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 1: got to Thanksgiving, we kind of knew that it was 509 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: like four or five teams that were gonna be in 510 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 1: the basement, right it was the Bears slash Panthers, that team, 511 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 1: the Patriots, the Commanders, and the Cardinals. The Chargers were 512 00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,120 Speaker 1: around there, but you knew they had it in them 513 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: to win some games. Should throw the Giants and that's five, 514 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:05,440 Speaker 1: but we kind of knew that it was a small group. 515 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,120 Speaker 1: I think this year, when we get to that point, 516 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 1: there's gonna be seven or eight teams all vying for 517 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,639 Speaker 1: maybe not the top pick, but the top four or 518 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: five picks. So if anything knocks them down the draft order, 519 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: like you said, they have a tough schedule. I just 520 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 1: think there's gonna be some other teams this year that 521 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 1: are really, really, really bad. 522 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 3: Well, that's what the league wants in a way, is 523 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 3: the parody, right both at the top and the bottom, 524 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 3: where you can look at a team. You mentioned the 525 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,440 Speaker 3: Pittsburgh Steelers, which is a fine example that you could 526 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 3: say that could be a ten win team or that 527 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:39,920 Speaker 3: could be a three win team. 528 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 1: Right, I wouldn't be surprised either. 529 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,359 Speaker 3: Way, and in a weird way, that's that's what the 530 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 3: league is trying to encourage, is that you know, any 531 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 3: given Sunday, a team can can pull off an upset 532 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:51,919 Speaker 3: because the talent gap isn't that wide. 533 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,159 Speaker 1: Patriots beat the Bills last year, right, still. 534 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 3: One of the most crazy wins of this post Brady era. 535 00:25:57,840 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 1: To be honest, I was happy. I was happy. 536 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:05,160 Speaker 3: There's so many the Patriots post Brady mac Jones era Patriots, 537 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:09,159 Speaker 3: if you want to call it, that they were so predictable. 538 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 3: They beat up on the bad teams, and they got 539 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 3: they lost to the good teams, and it was that 540 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 3: way for three years except for the Bills game or 541 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:18,640 Speaker 3: last year? 542 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 1: Was it true the whole time? And maybe we didn't 543 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 1: know that much about the Bills? Anyway? They good, We're 544 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: not doing this again. I got I got one on Twitter. 545 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: If you want, Yeah, go ahead, I don't. I don't 546 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 1: want to throw off the order where we're going. It's 547 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 1: a little more specific. This is from Joho on Twitter. 548 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 3: Is actually the next question I was going to ask too, So. 549 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:37,440 Speaker 1: Oh, all right, realistically, ye, Well, there's a friend of 550 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 1: mine from high school, so I want to get to oh, realistically, 551 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 1: how long a leash does Brissette have before he gets bench? 552 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 1: Assuming that he's the Week one starter? Is there any 553 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: chance they ride them all year to ensure a better 554 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: draft pick To the second part of that question, no, yeah, 555 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: I'm with you. They're not tanking. They're not tanking. You can't. 556 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 3: The one of the things that I don't want to 557 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,719 Speaker 3: lose sight about when it comes to how competitive they 558 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 3: are in twenty twenty four, is fair or not this 559 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 3: new regime? Elliott wolf Girodmeo. They need to justify firing 560 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 3: Bill Belichick. They need to justify firing Bill. That doesn't 561 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 3: mean they have to go on and win the Super Bowl. 562 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 3: But they can't purposely tank the season after firing Bill 563 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:25,399 Speaker 3: because then the whole world is going to be like, 564 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 3: why the heck did you get rid of the greatest 565 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 3: coach of all time to win to win two games? 566 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 1: Right? That just can't have it. 567 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,360 Speaker 3: Now to the first part of the question, I don't 568 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 3: necessarily believe that Jacoby Brissett's play on the field is 569 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 3: going to dictate anything to do with whether he's starting 570 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 3: games or not, because that's going to all be about 571 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 3: Drake May's developmental plan. If Drake May is not supposed 572 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 3: to play until week eighty, they should stick to the 573 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 3: plan of even if Jacob Brissett's one in seven and 574 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:58,879 Speaker 3: it is a disaster, you don't deter from the plan 575 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 3: because of the Because it's a long term plant. We 576 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 3: talk about it all the time. It's not about September 577 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,639 Speaker 3: twenty twenty four. It's about the next five to ten 578 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:12,920 Speaker 3: years of the Patriots organization. Jacoby Brisset could throw five 579 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 3: picks in week one, and you if you are dead 580 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 3: set that Drake May is not starting until week eight 581 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 3: and I'm just using that as an arbitrary number, then 582 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 3: you still can't go to Drake May in week two 583 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 3: just because Jacoby Brissett was terrible. You got to stick 584 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:26,120 Speaker 3: to the plant. 585 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 1: Absolutely. You can't panic put him in, right, you can't 586 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: panic put him in. And I'm with you. Whatever the 587 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,640 Speaker 1: plan is, I hope they stick. And there's some flexibility 588 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 1: obviously within that. You know, maybe week six he's making 589 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 1: more progress than you thought and whatever. But you can't 590 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 1: rush him in because the thing I think people lose 591 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: track of in this conversation the most, and I try 592 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 1: to hammer this point as much as possible. Once you 593 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 1: make the switch, that is it. Yeah that look look 594 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 1: at me, Patriots, that is it. You cannot go back. 595 00:28:58,000 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I should know that as the red light. 596 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 3: Look like you're the one that taught me all these things, 597 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 3: and they're. 598 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 1: Just well because I was watching the showback from last 599 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: week and I realized I was like staring down the 600 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 1: barrel of this camera. Once they make the switch, that 601 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 1: is it. Yeah, Drake May is the guy. We cannot 602 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 1: go through this again. Of the will they won't they? 603 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 1: With the quarterback room, it's a slightly different dynamic obviously, 604 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 1: Jacoby Brissett and Drake May versus Bailey's Appy and Mac Jones. 605 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 1: But you've got to be sure it's time to make 606 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 1: the move. So I don't think And again, John, thanks 607 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 1: for the question. I don't think we're gonna see Jacoby 608 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: Brissette for the full season, like Drake May is going 609 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 1: to play this year, but if there's a couple of 610 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 1: rough weeks early on, but that's what they need to 611 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 1: do to get Drake May ready, or get the offensive 612 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 1: line ready, or get whatever ready. Trust me, if if 613 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: the plan works, if the plan ultimately works and they're competitive, 614 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: we're not going to be sitting here in twenty twenty eight. 615 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: Evan bemoaning, Oh, do you remember those first few weeks 616 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty four. Why couldn't they have just been 617 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: a little more competitive, Like, we're not gonna We're not 618 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: going to do that. Other shows might We're not going 619 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 1: to do that. 620 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 3: So I have to go back and figure out if 621 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 3: it was because of injury or if it was so 622 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 3: it sounds like it was because he talk about Yeah, 623 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 3: so Tua in twenty twenty start, he had a string 624 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 3: of starts and then he missed one game against the Jets. 625 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 3: But it turns out that it was a thumb injury and. 626 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 1: He was hurt. That's if he's heard. He's hurt. But 627 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 1: there was an issue there, remember where So. 628 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 3: It was the late in games that they that he 629 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 3: wasn't playing well. 630 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, that Flora has kept on. 631 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 3: I think it happened multiple times that Flora's benched him 632 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 3: for Ryan Fitzpatrick and you know the second half of 633 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 3: games that he was playing poorly, but they kept on 634 00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 3: going back to Tua as the starter of the following. 635 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 1: Week and it became a big issue in the locker room. 636 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,000 Speaker 1: It became a big issue. It was a big story. Yeah, 637 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 1: because you just don't do that. 638 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, it messed with It might have messed with too 639 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 3: early on. Obviously he's he's played out of it, and 640 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 3: he's good enough that he's overcame it at this point. 641 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 1: But early on that was what it would happen. He 642 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 1: had to go through a new coaching staff, they had 643 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: to totally overhauled the offense. Maybe they needed to do 644 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 1: that anyway, but okay, also let me know when you 645 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 1: want to go to the Uh. Yes, I have a 646 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 1: few more from from I see him on YouTube, guys, 647 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: we'll get to him. 648 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 3: I wanted to go through these because I asked for him. 649 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 3: I don't want to ignore them. So Kerrie, who's been 650 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 3: a long time listener of ours, so thank you for that. 651 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 3: Other than quarterbacks, what is one player that could make 652 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 3: the biggest difference for this team if he plays better 653 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 3: than expected? So I have two answers to this, but 654 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 3: I'll say one and then I'll let you answer before 655 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 3: because we might have to be on the same page here. 656 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: Yea. So the most obvious answer to me. 657 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 3: Is Chuke Sikora four. If Chukes a Kora four plays 658 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 3: like a starting caliber left tackle, then all of a sudden, 659 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 3: the offensive line doesn't look as poor and they they 660 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 3: will start to piece that thing together a little bit better. 661 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 3: That that really does answer a lot of problems. Now 662 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 3: there's a lot of skepticism of whether or not he 663 00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 3: can be a starting caliber left tackle. Flipping sides is 664 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 3: not just the only issue. He also wasn't playing particularly 665 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 3: well at right tackle for the Pittsburgh in the games 666 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 3: that he started last year, So he was a replacement 667 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 3: level right tackle in Pittsburgh at the end, and now 668 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 3: they're asking him to flip sides and then be a 669 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:21,240 Speaker 3: serviceable left tackle. So that is a big, big question mark. 670 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 3: What if whatever you want to call it, But my 671 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 3: first answer would be would be chokes. If he can 672 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 3: come out and play a respectable left tackle, then their 673 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 3: line looks a whole lot better. 674 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 1: Before I give mine, I guess what your second is. 675 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 1: Christian Gonzalez, No, okay, So mine is I don't know. 676 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, either of the rookie receivers that was okay, 677 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 1: So one of I guess I'll go Jalen Polks. He's 678 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,480 Speaker 1: a higher traffick. But like, if either of these guys 679 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 1: can be have like a Pukin and Kua type of season, right, 680 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 1: if either of these guys become a coverage dictator, it 681 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 1: just opens everything else. And look, they'll still need to 682 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 1: get it blocked. They'll still absolutely need to get it blocked, 683 00:32:57,360 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 1: and that will be an issue. But in a core 684 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 1: force probably better answer to this question. But I would say, 685 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 1: if either of those rookie receivers can really emerge, it's 686 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: not just being like nothing against Pop Douglas, but what 687 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 1: Pop Douglas did last year, As much as we give 688 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 1: him credit for his rookie season, it was a good 689 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 1: rookie season. The hope is he continues to get better. 690 00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 1: From there, and that's not his ceiling. I'm talking about 691 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 1: if one of these guys can go above and beyond it, 692 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: not just have a good rookie season, but be one 693 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 1: of the best receivers in football as a rookie, it 694 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 1: would open up a lot. Absolutely. 695 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 3: It's the same old conversation we've had in the past 696 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 3: about this, where you can have deficiencies on offense, right, 697 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 3: but you also have to have strains of course, and 698 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,120 Speaker 3: it's from a personnel standpoint, taking coaching out of it 699 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 3: for a second, it's can you have quarterback play? 700 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 1: Can you block it? And do you have receivers. 701 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 3: I've always heard that you can do it with two 702 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 3: out of three, Yeah, if you have a great quarterback, 703 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 3: I think you'd do with two. 704 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: Out of three is no, Actually that's not true. 705 00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 3: Never mind continue if you have a great quarterback, yeah, 706 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:03,239 Speaker 3: and you have great receivers. You're the Cincinnati Bengals of 707 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 3: a couple of years ago and now kind of Well, 708 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 3: their line is better now, but the Bengals team that 709 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 3: made the Super Bowl had elite quarterback play, an elite 710 00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 3: receiver play, and not allowed them to overcome a bad 711 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:16,839 Speaker 3: offensive line. 712 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 1: Understating it going all the. 713 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 3: Way basically to the fourth quarter of a Super Bowl 714 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,280 Speaker 3: with a chance to win in an Aaron Donald quarterback 715 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 3: hit away from potentially a game winning drive in the 716 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 3: Super Bowl because you have Joe Burr, Jamar Chase T Higgins, 717 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 3: Tyler Boyd at the time was still playing well, so 718 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:40,839 Speaker 3: you had these options. I saw something from I think 719 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:44,480 Speaker 3: it was Mena Kimes about the Green Bay Packers, and 720 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:48,319 Speaker 3: she was talking about their receiving corps and how they 721 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:51,839 Speaker 3: don't necessarily have a number one, but they have three 722 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:55,800 Speaker 3: or four guys because a lot of love for Datavian Wicks. 723 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 3: I think I'm saying that right, a lot of love 724 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 3: for Wicks. So you have Christian Watson, Romeo Dobbs, Jayden 725 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,840 Speaker 3: Reid is their big three. Then you have Wicks, and 726 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 3: they also have some young tight ends to you muskgrave Craft, right, 727 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 3: you know those guys as well. But her point was 728 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 3: that they've hit on the plan that we all probably 729 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,440 Speaker 3: assumed is what Belichick was trying to go after the 730 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 3: last couple of years of we're not gonna have a 731 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 3: number one guy, but we're gonna have three or four 732 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:26,120 Speaker 3: guys on the field all at the same time that 733 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:29,279 Speaker 3: can all make plays and then it's you know, right, 734 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:33,800 Speaker 3: you're just spreading the ball around at that point. Currently, 735 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:37,240 Speaker 3: and this could definitely change in the future. Maybe Elliott 736 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 3: Wolf next off season takes a bigger swing at this 737 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:45,280 Speaker 3: and goes out and gets a T Higgins, a Brandon Aiyuka, whoever. 738 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:47,439 Speaker 1: But currently the. 739 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 3: Patriots are building their receiver receiver room a lot like 740 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 3: Choker the Green Bay Packers, where if it's Jalen Polk, 741 00:35:56,320 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 3: jayvon Baker, Kendrick Bourne, Pop Douglas is a lot like Watson, Dobbs, 742 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:06,160 Speaker 3: Reid and Wicks. Right now, it works there in Green 743 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,439 Speaker 3: Bay because Jordan Love is awesome, right and the coach 744 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:11,359 Speaker 3: is awesome in terms of offensive plane calling. 745 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, right, But that's why it works. Imagine how much 746 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:16,760 Speaker 1: more hawseme it would be if they had DeVante Adams 747 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,400 Speaker 1: and you can have all those guys and DeVante Adams, 748 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 1: which is why I'd say, like, I don't know, there's 749 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:25,040 Speaker 1: some ewing theory to it, but like at a certain point, 750 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:26,960 Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of these teams that do 751 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 1: the wide receiver like the wide receiver and aggregate. At 752 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:32,319 Speaker 1: a certain point, they just run into a team that 753 00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:34,720 Speaker 1: has a loaded secondary and they can cover him across 754 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 1: the board you need Eventually, you're gonna need that one guy, 755 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 1: you know, for a year two Can you get by 756 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 1: on that, Sure, But if you're really trying to be 757 00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 1: you know, win a Super Bowl, be contender, I think 758 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 1: you need that guy. Even the Chiefs people point to 759 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 1: the Chiefs, Well, they have Travis Kelce. So if you're 760 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:51,640 Speaker 1: gonna have that kind of wide receiver room and truly 761 00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:55,399 Speaker 1: be contender, you'd better have the best the second best 762 00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 1: tight end in the league currently in the league currently. Yeah, 763 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 1: well he's the best Titan currently block he's the best 764 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 1: title in the league. George Kittle Yeah, I know, I'm 765 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:07,279 Speaker 1: just trying to start stuff. George Kittles is declined a 766 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:10,279 Speaker 1: little bit. Yes, yeah, so I agree with you. I 767 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:11,800 Speaker 1: mean it's the same. It's the same as the Patriots 768 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:13,880 Speaker 1: people point to, Oh, even when Edelman got hurt, they 769 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:15,239 Speaker 1: were still able to throw the ball. They didn't have 770 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 1: a true number one receiver, No, but they had Rob Gronkowski. Yeah, 771 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:19,960 Speaker 1: so if you're gonna go get Rob Gronkowski, you can 772 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 1: sell me on that wide receiver room. Like Jaane Bell, 773 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 1: don't think he's quite that guy. 774 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with you that the Packers, the model that 775 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 3: the Packers are in right now, the way that they're 776 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:34,000 Speaker 3: structured right now, probably has a little bit of a 777 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 3: ceiling to it. Yeah, that isn't necessarily a super Bowl winner, 778 00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:40,920 Speaker 3: And that's fine because Jordan Love really takes another even 779 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 3: another step into MVP caliber territory where he can carry them. 780 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 1: But and and right now, which she might because well, 781 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 1: good player. The timeline is a little different because he 782 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,280 Speaker 1: obviously like they didn't play him on his rookie contract. 783 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:55,719 Speaker 1: But as you're getting going with the rebuild year one, 784 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,440 Speaker 1: year two, like, that's fine. If you're just gonna be 785 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:01,239 Speaker 1: a competitive team and you're still getting like you're not 786 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,759 Speaker 1: gonna get all the pieces at once, that's fine. I 787 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:06,879 Speaker 1: just hope they don't close the door. How many times 788 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:10,719 Speaker 1: haven't I talked about DK metcalf or about we talked 789 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:13,280 Speaker 1: about Amari Cooper. I think last week now there's rumors 790 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:16,319 Speaker 1: that CD Lamb they want added Dallas. I hope the 791 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 1: door isn't closed on that move. I just hope they 792 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,440 Speaker 1: don't outright close the door on adding a gun like that, 793 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:25,799 Speaker 1: because if you have the wide receiver by aggregate room, 794 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 1: if you have the room of a bunch of really 795 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 1: good number twos and then you add a number one. Well, 796 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,319 Speaker 1: now you're a top five offense in football on paper. Yeah, 797 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 1: I don't. Assuming you have the quarterback, assuming Drake networks. 798 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,720 Speaker 3: Out, Yeah, I believe they would probably still go after 799 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,319 Speaker 3: it in terms of that top receiver, just because they 800 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,880 Speaker 3: went after Calvin Ridley. So I don't think that Elliott 801 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 3: Wolf is operating on the same level of green Bay. 802 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 3: Where the joke is in green Bay as always, you know, 803 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,360 Speaker 3: the first couple of days of free agency doesn't exist 804 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 3: in green Bay. Free agency in green Bay is the draft, 805 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 3: right like that, they are a draft developed ta they 806 00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 3: have been for one hundred years. They're not going to 807 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:05,239 Speaker 3: change their ways. They're not going to go out and 808 00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:08,719 Speaker 3: make a Brandon Nayik trade in green Bay's that's just 809 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:12,400 Speaker 3: not happening. But Elliot Wolf has shown with the Calvin 810 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 3: Ridley sweepstakes, with the pursuit of Calvin Ridley, that they 811 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,760 Speaker 3: would pay twenty twenty five million dollars to a receiver. 812 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:20,719 Speaker 1: Sure, so it's. 813 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:24,439 Speaker 3: Maybe that is where he years left where his dad 814 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:25,399 Speaker 3: would have went. 815 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:25,680 Speaker 1: Right. 816 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:29,320 Speaker 3: We'll see, they got a close We'll see if it happens. Yeah, 817 00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 3: but on paper, it just seeing how people talk about 818 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,880 Speaker 3: the Packers receiving corps and then looking at the Patriots 819 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:40,560 Speaker 3: receiver room. That really is the best case scenario is 820 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 3: that it turns into a situation like green Bay has currently. 821 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 1: The best case scenarios, it turns into situation that green 822 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 1: Bay had five years go with Devontae Adams. 823 00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 3: Well, I suppose, but that's asking a lot. The best 824 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 3: case scenario is that I think, because I expecting jalen 825 00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:59,759 Speaker 3: Ja von Baker to be DeVante Adams is expecting a 826 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:02,400 Speaker 3: ton well out of out of it, not only you know, 827 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:03,279 Speaker 3: just in every way. 828 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 1: Sure, no, obviously, but I guess for this year that's 829 00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:09,759 Speaker 1: the best case scenario. Is that what you're saying for 830 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:11,640 Speaker 1: the next couple of years, Okay, e, They're not you know, 831 00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 1: DeVante Adams. 832 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:14,680 Speaker 3: You know, those guys don't just grow on trees. So 833 00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 3: I'm not going to sit here and say that that 834 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:18,440 Speaker 3: anybody is gonna just become DeVante. 835 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 1: They become available quite a bit. 836 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 3: Oh in terms of like them getting a player like that. Sure, 837 00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:26,759 Speaker 3: I'm just saying you, on paper, the room that they 838 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:30,280 Speaker 3: have right now, it's probably best case scenario that it's 839 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 3: it shooks like something like what the Packers that put 840 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 3: together right there? That's okay, a couple more offense questions 841 00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:42,360 Speaker 3: and then we'll flip it over to defense. Alex close Closs, Sorry, 842 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 3: is uh Calvin Anderson asks? Is Calvin Anderson a dark 843 00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 3: horse to start at left tackle? Perfectly phrased, He's not. 844 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,719 Speaker 3: Is it a strong possibility? 845 00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 1: No? Is he a dark horse? Yeah? 846 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 3: Is he a guy that could come out of the woodwork? 847 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:02,799 Speaker 1: Yes. 848 00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:07,120 Speaker 3: I The good thing about Calvin Anderson to me is that, 849 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 3: and I know Chris Price from the Globe reported on 850 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:13,399 Speaker 3: the whole story in the off season, just an absolutely 851 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:19,359 Speaker 3: ridiculously awful health situation that he had last year. I mean, 852 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 3: really genuinely feel for him that he went through that, 853 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:27,759 Speaker 3: and you reading the story, you could not, on any 854 00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:31,320 Speaker 3: level expect him to play respectable football after a situation 855 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:31,839 Speaker 3: like that. 856 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:32,800 Speaker 1: No chance. 857 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 3: So could they in year two of the Calvin Anderson 858 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:39,319 Speaker 3: experience get the guy they thought they were signing from 859 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 3: Denver last offseason, but it just because of the situation 860 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:45,879 Speaker 3: with his health, it didn't happen in year one. Yeah, 861 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:49,480 Speaker 3: I think that's definitely in play. And there's also the 862 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:52,560 Speaker 3: circumstance of what kind of scheme they want to run. 863 00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 3: And we've talked about this a ton with the outside 864 00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,399 Speaker 3: zone and you know, the bootlegs and the wide zone 865 00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:00,160 Speaker 3: actions and the stretch the field horizontally and all, oh 866 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:03,480 Speaker 3: that kind of crap. He is an athletic tackle. He 867 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 3: was an athletic tackle on paper, just in terms of 868 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:07,839 Speaker 3: his combine measurements and stuff like that from a few 869 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:11,960 Speaker 3: years ago. And he shows decent lateral movement and athletic 870 00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 3: ability on film when he's healthy. So all those things 871 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:17,920 Speaker 3: do add up to him being a decent fit in 872 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:20,480 Speaker 3: what they're trying to do. Is there a world where 873 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:23,799 Speaker 3: he put pushes Chuksa Kora for in camp to be 874 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 3: the left tackle? I do think that there is a 875 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:29,399 Speaker 3: a world. Do I what percentage chance do I put 876 00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:31,759 Speaker 3: on it? It's probably still pretty low. But if you 877 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:34,440 Speaker 3: want to call him a dark horse candidate to make 878 00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:37,600 Speaker 3: a push to for a starting role this summer, I'm 879 00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 3: not gonna be mad at that that. 880 00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 1: I agree with that. Yeah, yeah, I'm with you. I 881 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:46,800 Speaker 1: I'd even go a little stronger in that, just because 882 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,799 Speaker 1: who's their backup left tackle right now? Who's the next 883 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,680 Speaker 1: guy if they're gonna play Kayden Wallace on the right side, 884 00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:53,640 Speaker 1: which is what we saw. 885 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:56,640 Speaker 3: Spray very good chance and next chance tackle for sure, 886 00:42:57,160 --> 00:42:58,839 Speaker 3: that's a much higher percentage chance. 887 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,520 Speaker 1: Well, so I guess i'd I don't know about week one. 888 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. They seem pretty stuck on Chukes the 889 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 1: Corps four and seeing that thing through at least to 890 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 1: the start of the season. I would not be surprised 891 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:11,320 Speaker 1: if we get a couple of games of Calvin Anderson 892 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:13,719 Speaker 1: starting a left tackle for this team at some point 893 00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:16,320 Speaker 1: during the season. Again, don't think it's gonna be week one. Yeah, 894 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,839 Speaker 1: you know, around October November. If it's not going well 895 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:22,920 Speaker 1: with Chukes the Corps four, I feel like he's probably 896 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:26,680 Speaker 1: the next guy up. So yeah, I absolutely think Calvin 897 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 1: Anderson's starting games at left tackles in play. 898 00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:31,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with that, all right, when we are 899 00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 3: to defense for a little bit, and then we'll get 900 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:36,040 Speaker 3: to the questions in the chat and the emails. 901 00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:37,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh, and I I. 902 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 3: Haven't been monitoring the phones because I've been looking at 903 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:41,040 Speaker 3: my phone, so we do have a couple of phone 904 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:42,879 Speaker 3: calls as well, So I'll get to all you guys 905 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:45,200 Speaker 3: in the second I promise phones have been waiting for 906 00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:48,200 Speaker 3: a while. So let's actually take the phones because we've 907 00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:50,920 Speaker 3: been waiting for a while here, all right, Uh, Patty's 908 00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 3: anach go on, what's up? 909 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:52,080 Speaker 1: Patty? 910 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:54,719 Speaker 4: What's up? 911 00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:55,080 Speaker 1: Guys? 912 00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:57,759 Speaker 4: Part of the noise. But I'm glad you guys are 913 00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:00,839 Speaker 4: just talking about wide receivers because I got to say, 914 00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:03,560 Speaker 4: I love I love Alex's idea, but just hear me 915 00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 4: out too, like I kind of want to see this 916 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 4: group these guys compete in training camp and just, you know, 917 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:12,120 Speaker 4: let the best five or six guys that are going 918 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:14,440 Speaker 4: to make the roster make the roster this year and 919 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:17,240 Speaker 4: stick with it, because I don't think if you trade 920 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:20,040 Speaker 4: for a Brandon Ayuk or te Higgins. I mean, those 921 00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:23,160 Speaker 4: guys are good, but are they really like are they alphas? 922 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,799 Speaker 4: Are they elites? Are they number one? I don't know, 923 00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:29,000 Speaker 4: Like you guys have said too, like Ayuk has been, 924 00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 4: He's probably going to be their number two option this 925 00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:35,760 Speaker 4: year out of everybody. You know, he'll be behind Christian McCaffrey. 926 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:37,560 Speaker 4: But for the most part, he's been the number four 927 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 4: guy behind it, you know him Kittle and Debo for 928 00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:44,680 Speaker 4: his whole career. But if there is a chance that 929 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 4: they could get dk Metcalf. I mean that guy, we 930 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 4: know he's in alpha, and I mean if the way 931 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 4: I see the season play out, I can kind of 932 00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:58,440 Speaker 4: see a plan out the way Drew's rookie year was 933 00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:02,399 Speaker 4: where you know, hopefully May wins the starting job out 934 00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:06,120 Speaker 4: of camp. They tread water for about half the season, 935 00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:09,040 Speaker 4: but the second half they come on. They're competitive. He 936 00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:11,520 Speaker 4: looks like he's taking a good step forward in his 937 00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 4: rookie year, and then next year you try and get 938 00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,680 Speaker 4: the best out of him by getting that alpha. And 939 00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:19,840 Speaker 4: you know, hopefully those young guys, the two guys that 940 00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:23,040 Speaker 4: they drafted and Pop all grow together with them. And 941 00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:26,600 Speaker 4: I love Born like I. I hope he's stixed, fixed around. 942 00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 4: I hope he's healthy this year, and I hope they 943 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:31,919 Speaker 4: keep that core going forward and add that alpha guy. 944 00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:34,359 Speaker 4: That's all I got. You guys are the friggin' best 945 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:37,000 Speaker 4: you know with and that's see you next week. 946 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:39,560 Speaker 1: Thanks, Patty, appreciate that. You know. I learned something about 947 00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:45,040 Speaker 1: Agaua the other day, Patty from Aga Okay, do you 948 00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:47,480 Speaker 1: know they have the lowest zip code in the country, 949 00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:49,759 Speaker 1: one to one. If you were to list all the 950 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:52,279 Speaker 1: zip codes numerically in the entire country. Just like in 951 00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:54,680 Speaker 1: terms of adding the numbers up. No, in terms of 952 00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:56,600 Speaker 1: like if you were to put them in order, Oh, okay, 953 00:45:56,719 --> 00:45:58,480 Speaker 1: like counting right. I don't know why I thought add 954 00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:02,080 Speaker 1: the numbers. Yeah, well I guess that's probably yeah, but 955 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:06,480 Speaker 1: one one it's the first. It would be the first 956 00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:10,000 Speaker 1: zip codes the lowest number. I like that. Uh. 957 00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:13,440 Speaker 3: His his questioner is point. I tend to agree with 958 00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:16,640 Speaker 3: what he's saying that I would like to see the 959 00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:21,280 Speaker 3: organic growth, the growth will within first before we jump 960 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:25,240 Speaker 3: to trading draft cap significant draft capital for Brandon Nayuk 961 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:29,240 Speaker 3: or T Higgins. I'm not necessarily with him in terms 962 00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:31,960 Speaker 3: of him underrating Brandon Nayuk. I think brand Nyuk is 963 00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,880 Speaker 3: a hell of a football player. Yeah, But I feel 964 00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:38,400 Speaker 3: similarly about T Higgins though in terms of I'm not 965 00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:42,400 Speaker 3: one hundred percent sure that T Higgins is a true alpha. 966 00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:45,759 Speaker 3: It is like a true dude because his skill set 967 00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 3: is to me, is more. There's fewer boxes that he 968 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:51,400 Speaker 3: checks in terms of what he can do on the 969 00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:54,279 Speaker 3: football field. It's a it's more I'm trying to look 970 00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:57,080 Speaker 3: for the right word, but it's Brandon Nyuk does a 971 00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:59,040 Speaker 3: bunch of things well, whereas. 972 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,880 Speaker 1: Specialized specialized, he is probably the best word for it. 973 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:06,920 Speaker 3: T Higgins is a big bodied perimeter receiver. We can 974 00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:09,960 Speaker 3: argue about it. If he's played X Z whatever in Cincinnati. 975 00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:12,440 Speaker 3: He plays on the outside like eighty one percent of 976 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:15,880 Speaker 3: the time. He is a big body, jump ball receiver. 977 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:20,360 Speaker 3: He is a better version, much better version than Patriots 978 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:22,800 Speaker 3: version of Devonte Parker, but like he's a better version 979 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:27,200 Speaker 3: of like Dolphins Devonte Parker right. Whereas with Brandon ay Yuke, 980 00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:30,360 Speaker 3: he is one of the best route runners in the NFL. 981 00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:33,120 Speaker 3: He's good with the ball in his hands. He is 982 00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:36,840 Speaker 3: a very, very good player. And what we've seen with 983 00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:39,080 Speaker 3: the San Francisco forty nine ers over the last couple 984 00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:42,880 Speaker 3: of years, especially last year, is that as great. And 985 00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:44,799 Speaker 3: take McCaffrey out of it for a second, because he's 986 00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 3: a running back. Just talking about their pass catchers at 987 00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:50,640 Speaker 3: receiver and tight end McCaffrey catch, Come on, I know, 988 00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 3: but I'm just saying, like, in terms of their receiver room, 989 00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:58,680 Speaker 3: Brandon Ayyuke's ability to just win on routes without the 990 00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:02,400 Speaker 3: Kyle Shanahan of it all, without needing all the bells 991 00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:05,480 Speaker 3: and whistles like Deebo Samuel. It needs to be schemed 992 00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:08,719 Speaker 3: open right, Deebo. Samuel needs help in order to be 993 00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:11,840 Speaker 3: used properly and utilizing the right places on the field. 994 00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:13,840 Speaker 3: Brandon Nyuk is one of those guys that can just 995 00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:16,239 Speaker 3: line up across from somebody and just win on the 996 00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:21,239 Speaker 3: route that elevated the forty nine ers offense last year 997 00:48:21,600 --> 00:48:25,040 Speaker 3: to almost a different level at times because they finally 998 00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:28,160 Speaker 3: had like that coverage beater that just it's man coverage, 999 00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:30,640 Speaker 3: third down on the outside, Brandon, and you can win 1000 00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:34,839 Speaker 3: the route, Yeah, just by himself, without Kyle Shanahan having 1001 00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:38,839 Speaker 3: to sequence together, play action or move Debo around, or 1002 00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:41,680 Speaker 3: you know, whatever the case may be. So's a He's 1003 00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:44,120 Speaker 3: a very very good player. I think Brandon Nyuk is 1004 00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:47,719 Speaker 3: probably a top ten receiver in the NFL today. So 1005 00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:51,360 Speaker 3: I would trade. That's the trade, I guess is a 1006 00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:53,759 Speaker 3: long way winded way of saying this. That's a trade 1007 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,000 Speaker 3: that I don't think the Patriots can pass up being 1008 00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:59,640 Speaker 3: involved in that market. Like, as a team that's starving 1009 00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:05,360 Speaker 3: for offensive firepower and offensive talent, you can't simply pass 1010 00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:07,800 Speaker 3: on an opportunity to trade for Brandon. 1011 00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:09,600 Speaker 1: I you because you want to see the kids play. 1012 00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:13,160 Speaker 1: You can't tell. So and and maybe this's war I'm 1013 00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:14,600 Speaker 1: talking out of both sides of my mouth, but just 1014 00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:16,680 Speaker 1: to be clear, like because I just said that whole thing, 1015 00:49:16,680 --> 00:49:18,319 Speaker 1: I hope they add the true number one. I hope 1016 00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:22,400 Speaker 1: they have the coverage dictator. I don't. I'm actually with 1017 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:25,520 Speaker 1: Patty in that let's let's see what you have in 1018 00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:28,400 Speaker 1: the room. Let's also not jump in and make that 1019 00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:31,560 Speaker 1: big investment before we're before we are sure Drake may 1020 00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:34,360 Speaker 1: is worth making the big investment. Let's see him for 1021 00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:36,360 Speaker 1: a year and make sure that he's worth, you know, 1022 00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:39,359 Speaker 1: adding the pieces to I said this on the show 1023 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:41,799 Speaker 1: last night, and this is it's a little bit of 1024 00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:43,239 Speaker 1: a dense take, so you just kind of have to 1025 00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:46,200 Speaker 1: hang with me here. But and I part of this 1026 00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:51,920 Speaker 1: I've said before, I do not think it is difficult 1027 00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:56,920 Speaker 1: to find an opportunity to add a coverage dictating receiver. 1028 00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:01,520 Speaker 1: Because as much as we we talk about brand and Ayu, 1029 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:04,600 Speaker 1: we did this last year with DeAndre Hopkins, and now 1030 00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:07,760 Speaker 1: that Brandon Ayuk's available, Marii Cooper might be be available, 1031 00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:10,600 Speaker 1: Seedee Lamb might be right. Like every time we think 1032 00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:14,080 Speaker 1: it's the last guy, there's three more that suddenly want 1033 00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:16,600 Speaker 1: new contracts or you aren't getting paid or whatever. So 1034 00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:22,680 Speaker 1: I don't think you might pass on brand and Ayuk specifically. 1035 00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:26,719 Speaker 1: I think there're gonna be other chances to get this 1036 00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:28,799 Speaker 1: kind of player. Maybe not with the trade deadline, but 1037 00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:33,000 Speaker 1: you know next offseason, right, and it's it's gonna cost 1038 00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:35,480 Speaker 1: you something to get this guy. That's the reap both 1039 00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:38,120 Speaker 1: in terms of money and draft capitol because they're not 1040 00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:40,160 Speaker 1: in for agency. You got a trade for him. But 1041 00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:44,239 Speaker 1: I like you can do that. The Patriots, assuming Drake 1042 00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:47,920 Speaker 1: May looks decent this year, are going to have the 1043 00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:52,640 Speaker 1: flexibility to trade a second round pick and then give, 1044 00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:56,080 Speaker 1: you know, high twenties millions of dollars a year to 1045 00:50:56,120 --> 00:50:59,360 Speaker 1: an elite wide receiver. They are going, assuming Drake May hits, 1046 00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:01,359 Speaker 1: they will be in a position to do that at 1047 00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:05,000 Speaker 1: some point. This is what I think the real challenge 1048 00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:10,080 Speaker 1: is in adding an elite receiver. You have to thread 1049 00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:13,200 Speaker 1: the needle and know when is the time to strike. 1050 00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:16,600 Speaker 1: You don't want to go too early and blow assets 1051 00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:18,120 Speaker 1: you can't afford to blow, or you don't want to 1052 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:20,960 Speaker 1: go too early just because there's a shiny new toy 1053 00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:23,000 Speaker 1: who maybe isn't a great fit for what you want 1054 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:24,919 Speaker 1: to do. I know it's a fit. I'm just saying 1055 00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:27,600 Speaker 1: like in general here, but you also don't want to 1056 00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:30,440 Speaker 1: be too passive and say, oh, you know, yeah, so 1057 00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:32,719 Speaker 1: and so he's event they'll be available to be available, 1058 00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:35,360 Speaker 1: and then you wait too long and now maybe the 1059 00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:37,440 Speaker 1: windows closed, you're not gonna have the quarterback on the 1060 00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:40,080 Speaker 1: rookie contract to pay them, or now maybe your team's 1061 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:42,080 Speaker 1: a little too good, that those draft picks aren't worth 1062 00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:44,440 Speaker 1: as much as they were. That to me is the 1063 00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:46,720 Speaker 1: real challenge. And I'm you know, people are probably waiting 1064 00:51:46,719 --> 00:51:48,920 Speaker 1: for me to give the answer of exactly when to 1065 00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:51,040 Speaker 1: do it. I wish I could sit here and tell 1066 00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:55,600 Speaker 1: you that on March seventeenth, twenty twenty five, I'll use 1067 00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:57,920 Speaker 1: my birthday. That's not my Birthday'm not gonna use my 1068 00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:02,319 Speaker 1: birthday March seventeenth, twenty twenty as forget your own. No, 1069 00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:04,440 Speaker 1: I didn't. I was like, I should use my birthday 1070 00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:05,719 Speaker 1: in as I don't want to give my birthday on 1071 00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:10,479 Speaker 1: the air. I why would I. On March seventeenth, twenty 1072 00:52:10,520 --> 00:52:13,600 Speaker 1: twenty five, at ten thirty one, am Evan the Patriots 1073 00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:15,719 Speaker 1: should trade a second round pick, a fourth round pick 1074 00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:18,360 Speaker 1: and a future second for TK Metcalf. I wish I 1075 00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:20,320 Speaker 1: could sit here and give you, like the exact timeline. 1076 00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:20,640 Speaker 1: I can't. 1077 00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:23,000 Speaker 3: You guys are making me too excited about DK Metcalf. 1078 00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:24,880 Speaker 1: I know you're gonna you can get mad at me 1079 00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:27,279 Speaker 1: for this one. He doesn't come here. I've deserved that. 1080 00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:31,799 Speaker 1: But the point is that's the real challenge, Yeah, is 1081 00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:34,719 Speaker 1: threading the needle and knowing when I still think it's 1082 00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:38,239 Speaker 1: too early. I still think it's too early. Not just 1083 00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:40,120 Speaker 1: I want to see the receivers they have, that's part 1084 00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:42,040 Speaker 1: of it. I want to see Drake May just a 1085 00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:42,920 Speaker 1: developmental Plannet. 1086 00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:47,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with you on this because we have examples 1087 00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:49,080 Speaker 3: that we can pull from the past. 1088 00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:49,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1089 00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:54,560 Speaker 3: So the Houston Texans, yeap, are what we all are 1090 00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:59,239 Speaker 3: hoping the Patriots will be. Absolutely the Houston Texans did 1091 00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:02,600 Speaker 3: what Patti said to do. They played Tank Dell, they 1092 00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:05,320 Speaker 3: played Nico Collins, they obviously played c J. S Drowd 1093 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:10,360 Speaker 3: and they noticed recognized, wow, this this is a young 1094 00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:11,359 Speaker 3: budding corp. 1095 00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:12,160 Speaker 1: We have something. 1096 00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:15,879 Speaker 3: We have something here, mostly CJ. Strowd, but Tank Dell 1097 00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:17,879 Speaker 3: was one of the best rookie receivers in the league 1098 00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:18,719 Speaker 3: before he got hurt. 1099 00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:20,359 Speaker 1: Nico Collins had. 1100 00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:22,399 Speaker 3: A career year with a quarterback that could actually throw 1101 00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:24,680 Speaker 3: them the ball, and all of a sudden you look 1102 00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:27,240 Speaker 3: then to Dalton Schultz. Yeah yeah, all of a sudden 1103 00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:31,120 Speaker 3: you look at that receiving corps and everybody's popping. Everybody's 1104 00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:36,400 Speaker 3: playing well. So then this offseason, what does Nick Casario do. 1105 00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:40,600 Speaker 3: He says, well, let's supplement it, let's add on right, 1106 00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:42,400 Speaker 3: and they trade for Stefan Dick. So they did it 1107 00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:47,759 Speaker 3: in one year. That is an expedited rebuild process of 1108 00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:51,799 Speaker 3: holy crap, we just hit on a franchise quarterback with 1109 00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:54,399 Speaker 3: the second overall pick. We don't necessarily need to wait 1110 00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:58,600 Speaker 3: three years to make this track. The other option is 1111 00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:00,920 Speaker 3: what the Buffalo Bills did with your boys, Stefon Diggs. 1112 00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:04,279 Speaker 3: They waited until in between year two and year three 1113 00:54:04,280 --> 00:54:06,879 Speaker 3: with Josh Allen because it took two years for Josh 1114 00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:09,360 Speaker 3: Allen to truly emerge. 1115 00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:11,840 Speaker 1: Prove he's worth the investment developed. Year one for Josh 1116 00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:14,680 Speaker 1: Allen was not very good. Bad. 1117 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:17,440 Speaker 3: Year two was better. I think it was right. It 1118 00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:19,440 Speaker 3: was year two and between year two and year three. 1119 00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:21,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, but he still wasn't good Year two either. He 1120 00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:24,480 Speaker 1: was like just good enough that the example I used it, 1121 00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:26,839 Speaker 1: you know, I think the Eagles make a lot more 1122 00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:32,160 Speaker 1: sense because Jalen Hurts kind of started proving himself. 1123 00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:35,000 Speaker 3: The difficult part about the Eagles is that Jalen Hurts 1124 00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:38,200 Speaker 3: was not drafted to be the guy necessarily, so it's 1125 00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 3: a little bit different just in terms of that. 1126 00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:41,400 Speaker 1: I don't think it's good because we can use the 1127 00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:44,279 Speaker 1: Dolphins too. Right. They went out and got Tyreek Kill 1128 00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:47,960 Speaker 1: for two a year, year three. 1129 00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:51,080 Speaker 3: Year three they traded for Diggs. Right, Yeah, Josh Allen 1130 00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:54,640 Speaker 3: drafted in eighteen. Digs got to the Bills in twenty twenty. Yeah, 1131 00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:57,520 Speaker 3: so that in between year two and year three, that 1132 00:54:57,640 --> 00:55:00,040 Speaker 3: offseason is when they made the trade. So they I 1133 00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:04,239 Speaker 3: recognized in year two of Josh Allen, he's on this 1134 00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:07,600 Speaker 3: upward trajectory. If we get him a number one receiver 1135 00:55:07,719 --> 00:55:10,160 Speaker 3: like Stefan Diggs, that could take him to the next 1136 00:55:10,239 --> 00:55:13,080 Speaker 3: level and put him over the top. If you ask me, 1137 00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:16,160 Speaker 3: the most likely scenario for the Patriots is probably the 1138 00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:21,719 Speaker 3: Bills situation, just because I don't know if Drake may 1139 00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:23,960 Speaker 3: is gonna play as much or be as polished as c. J. 1140 00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:26,600 Speaker 3: Stroud was out of the gate. He probably has more 1141 00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 3: of Josh Allen in him than C. J. 1142 00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:28,600 Speaker 1: Stroud. 1143 00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:31,799 Speaker 3: But with that being said, those are the two examples. 1144 00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:34,680 Speaker 3: One was after year one. One was after year two 1145 00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 3: for the quarterback, and they waited until they saw what 1146 00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:41,480 Speaker 3: they had with the QB. They saw what they had 1147 00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:44,719 Speaker 3: at the pieces within or we truly as Tefon Diggs 1148 00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:47,719 Speaker 3: or well in both cases as Stefan Digs away from 1149 00:55:47,719 --> 00:55:50,880 Speaker 3: being a Super Bowl contender, they didn't get there different 1150 00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:54,640 Speaker 3: at the same time. So that's definitely a possibility that 1151 00:55:55,480 --> 00:55:59,000 Speaker 3: this year they play the kids. They let the young guys, 1152 00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:01,120 Speaker 3: you know, the first just to you know, the guys 1153 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:03,000 Speaker 3: from the last two draft classes. I think, you know, 1154 00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:05,680 Speaker 3: we forget a little bit that Pop Douglas is also 1155 00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:08,319 Speaker 3: in this. You know, Pop Douglas is also here as 1156 00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:10,480 Speaker 3: a year or two guy. And they see what they 1157 00:56:10,520 --> 00:56:14,040 Speaker 3: have going into the off season and maybe it is 1158 00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:17,280 Speaker 3: the time to pull the big trade for Brandon Aiyuk 1159 00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:20,319 Speaker 3: or sign a T. Higgins in free agency or what 1160 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:22,680 Speaker 3: have you, or maybe it's the next off season and 1161 00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:27,080 Speaker 3: that's becomes DK metcalf right, you know, in twenty twenty 1162 00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:29,879 Speaker 3: six instead of twenty twenty five. So I'm with you both. 1163 00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:32,600 Speaker 3: I feel like there's there's a lot of a lot 1164 00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:35,640 Speaker 3: of layers to it. When exactly that trade is is 1165 00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:38,919 Speaker 3: gonna make the most sense, It's probably not this year. 1166 00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:40,480 Speaker 3: It's just probably not. 1167 00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:42,640 Speaker 1: It's it's not. And again, like, is that Brandon you 1168 00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:45,120 Speaker 1: a good player? Yes, I You'll be able to get 1169 00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:47,680 Speaker 1: comparable players down the road. You'll have other chances. Okay, 1170 00:56:47,719 --> 00:56:50,279 Speaker 1: Todd is in North Carolina? What's up Todd? All right? 1171 00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:52,120 Speaker 3: You can call back Todd at we left them on 1172 00:56:52,160 --> 00:56:54,359 Speaker 3: home for a little while. Call back and we'll get 1173 00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:57,279 Speaker 3: you on Todd. Go back to Twitter, and then we'll 1174 00:56:57,320 --> 00:56:59,960 Speaker 3: get into the I'm sorry, I'm never gonna call it X. 1175 00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:04,160 Speaker 3: I'm just not. It's gonna be Twitter. Sorry, Elon. All right, 1176 00:57:05,320 --> 00:57:07,160 Speaker 3: a couple more questions here and then we'll get to 1177 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:11,719 Speaker 3: what's going on in the chat. So this is I 1178 00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:13,719 Speaker 3: don't know what his actual name is, it's just a 1179 00:57:13,719 --> 00:57:16,000 Speaker 3: Twitter handle. So I'm not gonna read out loud because 1180 00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:17,560 Speaker 3: it's not safe for work. 1181 00:57:17,640 --> 00:57:18,680 Speaker 1: Alex, it's not nice. 1182 00:57:19,280 --> 00:57:23,440 Speaker 3: Do you anticipate Keon White ever becoming a big sack guy, like, 1183 00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:26,120 Speaker 3: you know, numbers wise, like a Matthew Judon, you know six, 1184 00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:29,560 Speaker 3: you know, ten plus sacks? A year type of player. 1185 00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:32,600 Speaker 3: I'm gonna say, no, you know, I'm not the highest 1186 00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:34,640 Speaker 3: on Keon White, So maybe it's a little bit of 1187 00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:37,640 Speaker 3: a bias on my part, but I feel like he's 1188 00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:41,520 Speaker 3: definitely going to be more disruptor in his NFL career 1189 00:57:41,720 --> 00:57:47,200 Speaker 3: pressure numbers and disruption overall chaos than he is going 1190 00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:49,560 Speaker 3: to ever be like a finisher that's going to put 1191 00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:52,840 Speaker 3: up a fifteen sax season. I just don't necessarily see 1192 00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:57,200 Speaker 3: that those elements to the skill, the closing speed, that 1193 00:57:57,240 --> 00:58:00,640 Speaker 3: type of stuff that usually lends itself to being a 1194 00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:02,760 Speaker 3: double digit sack guy. But that doesn't mean he can't 1195 00:58:02,760 --> 00:58:05,600 Speaker 3: be an effective player. I just I've always said the 1196 00:58:05,640 --> 00:58:08,800 Speaker 3: same thing about Keon White that I still feel like 1197 00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:11,760 Speaker 3: the best comp from Patriots pass because it's always easy 1198 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:13,720 Speaker 3: to just pull from guys from the past. Is like 1199 00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:16,640 Speaker 3: a Trey Flowers, who I don't think ever had or 1200 00:58:16,680 --> 00:58:18,800 Speaker 3: maybe he did flirt with like ten sacks, but it 1201 00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:21,000 Speaker 3: was never He was never like a Matthew Judah who 1202 00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:23,920 Speaker 3: was putting up fifteen, you know, sixteen sacks in the season. 1203 00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:27,520 Speaker 3: I want to say that that Trey Flowers is high 1204 00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:29,280 Speaker 3: with the Patriots is like eight or nine. 1205 00:58:29,200 --> 00:58:31,440 Speaker 1: I'd look his Pro Football Reference pages down here we go, 1206 00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:34,320 Speaker 1: it's seven and a half in twenty eighteen. Yeah, he had, 1207 00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:37,600 Speaker 1: but he was consistent he had. I mean, he missed 1208 00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:40,439 Speaker 1: his first year already towards ACL seven six and a half, 1209 00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:41,520 Speaker 1: seven and a half seven. 1210 00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:46,120 Speaker 3: So if you look at his quarterback pressures, like on PFF, 1211 00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:49,720 Speaker 3: you know, quarterback hits hurries, he was always higher on those. 1212 00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:51,880 Speaker 3: Like I believe his breakout year was it was at 1213 00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:55,400 Speaker 3: seventeen or eighteen with the Patriots. I always forget whichever year. 1214 00:58:56,840 --> 00:58:57,720 Speaker 3: Whichever year that. 1215 00:58:57,880 --> 00:59:01,800 Speaker 1: Was sixteen, that long ago, he hits seven sacks. 1216 00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:03,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, se so he had seven sacks and but he 1217 00:59:03,760 --> 00:59:06,680 Speaker 3: had like something like sixty five quarterback pressures. You know, 1218 00:59:06,840 --> 00:59:09,840 Speaker 3: it was high amongst the edge defenders in the league. 1219 00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:11,959 Speaker 3: So my point being is that I think Kean White 1220 00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:14,800 Speaker 3: could could be a pressure's guy, but not necessarily a 1221 00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:17,280 Speaker 3: sack guy. I don't necessarily see him being a double 1222 00:59:17,280 --> 00:59:17,960 Speaker 3: digit sack guy. 1223 00:59:18,240 --> 00:59:22,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was honestly gonna go with a current Patriot 1224 00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:24,960 Speaker 1: and Dietrich Wise, and I think he'll be a little 1225 00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:27,400 Speaker 1: more disruptive than that. But that kind of player, the 1226 00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:31,680 Speaker 1: guy that creates sacks more than gets them himself, if 1227 00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:35,400 Speaker 1: that makes sense. Like he we we saw Keon White 1228 00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:37,120 Speaker 1: to a slot early last year and then he had 1229 00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:38,880 Speaker 1: that cancutch and I think it kind of threw him 1230 00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:43,880 Speaker 1: off a little bit. Yeah, we've seen, we saw him. 1231 00:59:43,880 --> 00:59:46,120 Speaker 1: He was able to, you know, force the quarterback out 1232 00:59:46,120 --> 00:59:47,920 Speaker 1: of the pocket and get to the quarterback and be 1233 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:50,480 Speaker 1: the first one there and force him off his spot. 1234 00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:52,960 Speaker 1: And that's where you hope a guy like Matthew Judon 1235 00:59:53,160 --> 00:59:56,000 Speaker 1: or whoever takes over that spot next, because even if 1236 00:59:56,040 --> 00:59:58,360 Speaker 1: Judeon's here this year, I mean he's you hope Keon 1237 00:59:58,400 --> 01:00:01,200 Speaker 1: White's here long beyond Matthew judah On that the guy 1238 01:00:01,240 --> 01:00:03,000 Speaker 1: on the other side is kind of cleaning up, especially 1239 01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:05,280 Speaker 1: if they're gonna play this more aggressive brand defense. So 1240 01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:07,880 Speaker 1: I think On White's more of an disruptor than anything else. 1241 01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:10,840 Speaker 1: And that may not always show up in the in 1242 01:00:10,920 --> 01:00:13,360 Speaker 1: the regular box score. But like you said, pressures, so 1243 01:00:13,400 --> 01:00:16,800 Speaker 1: they have. I just pulled it up. In twenty eighteen, 1244 01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:21,600 Speaker 1: Trey Flowers had seventy eight pressures. Yeah, I knew it 1245 01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:24,240 Speaker 1: was high. I was even low ball. He had seventy 1246 01:00:24,280 --> 01:00:26,880 Speaker 1: seven and seventeen and seventy eight and eighteen. So that's 1247 01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:29,720 Speaker 1: that's high. That's among top ten, top fifteen in the 1248 01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:33,840 Speaker 1: league at the position. So not at seven and a 1249 01:00:33,880 --> 01:00:37,440 Speaker 1: half sacks or seven sacks, but seventy eight pressures. Is 1250 01:00:37,720 --> 01:00:40,800 Speaker 1: that's causing a lot of your stress. Right, It might 1251 01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:42,400 Speaker 1: not be showing up with the stat sheet, but you're 1252 01:00:42,440 --> 01:00:44,200 Speaker 1: And this was a big This will be an interesting 1253 01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:47,120 Speaker 1: one actually because a big part of Bill Belichick's philosophy 1254 01:00:47,800 --> 01:00:50,120 Speaker 1: was a throwaway is as good as a sack. Yeah, 1255 01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:53,520 Speaker 1: and you know, don't risk getting a penalty or whatever 1256 01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:56,800 Speaker 1: losing contain the quarterback throw the ball, throws the ball away, 1257 01:00:56,800 --> 01:00:59,400 Speaker 1: the defense won to play. Is that going to continue 1258 01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:02,360 Speaker 1: with this new more aggressive to Marcus Covington defense, that'll 1259 01:01:02,440 --> 01:01:06,080 Speaker 1: you know, we'll see. But they're in this system generally, 1260 01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:08,600 Speaker 1: if you could just get the quarterback off his spot 1261 01:01:08,640 --> 01:01:11,440 Speaker 1: and aggravate them, you've done your job. And that is 1262 01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:13,439 Speaker 1: I think the kind of player Key on White projects debate. 1263 01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:15,840 Speaker 3: So I'm gonna go a little nerd on you for 1264 01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:17,960 Speaker 3: a second. So this has been an age old debate 1265 01:01:17,960 --> 01:01:23,080 Speaker 3: between the news sacks versus pressures and our sacks overrated 1266 01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:27,400 Speaker 3: just in terms of their impact, but not necessarily that 1267 01:01:28,880 --> 01:01:31,440 Speaker 3: you can't get no pressure we're just saying, you know, 1268 01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:34,760 Speaker 3: how much does a pressure? How much weighted more is 1269 01:01:34,760 --> 01:01:36,800 Speaker 3: a sack than a pressure? Right in terms of its 1270 01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:37,800 Speaker 3: impact on the game. 1271 01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:40,320 Speaker 1: Well, I'd rather the offense be losing yards. 1272 01:01:40,840 --> 01:01:44,040 Speaker 3: So personally, here's the here's the argument on the other side, 1273 01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:48,800 Speaker 3: the argument for the nerd side of things. Of and 1274 01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:52,760 Speaker 3: let me be clear, we and I say we as 1275 01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:55,720 Speaker 3: in the cards, still believe a sack is more impactful 1276 01:01:55,720 --> 01:01:56,600 Speaker 3: than a pressure. 1277 01:01:56,680 --> 01:01:58,800 Speaker 1: Good Okay, no one's saying that it isn't. 1278 01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:03,080 Speaker 3: But for now, the reason why pressure metrics have become 1279 01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:06,280 Speaker 3: more popular, the biggest reason, I would say, is that 1280 01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:10,520 Speaker 3: what we see statistically is that when the ball under 1281 01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:13,080 Speaker 3: pressure is put in the air, you're more likely to 1282 01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:18,240 Speaker 3: cause a turnover, right, like an interception. Obviously, so pressures 1283 01:02:18,240 --> 01:02:23,920 Speaker 3: cause disruption. Disruption calls causes turnovers. So therefore, if you 1284 01:02:23,960 --> 01:02:27,000 Speaker 3: get the ball in play, as a base baseball term, 1285 01:02:27,280 --> 01:02:29,439 Speaker 3: if you put the ball in play, but you're under 1286 01:02:29,440 --> 01:02:31,840 Speaker 3: pressure when you put the ball in play, not only 1287 01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:33,880 Speaker 3: are you more likely to turn the ball over, you're 1288 01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:36,240 Speaker 3: also more likely to have a catastrophic turnover like a 1289 01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:36,760 Speaker 3: pick six. 1290 01:02:36,880 --> 01:02:37,040 Speaker 1: Right. 1291 01:02:37,320 --> 01:02:41,200 Speaker 3: So that's the biggest thing that makes pressures when you 1292 01:02:41,240 --> 01:02:43,520 Speaker 3: sack somebody and yes there are strip. 1293 01:02:43,560 --> 01:02:45,280 Speaker 1: That's gonna say, boy, the nerds are gonna lose it 1294 01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:47,320 Speaker 1: when they learn about strip sacks. Strip sacks as a whole. 1295 01:02:47,360 --> 01:02:47,600 Speaker 1: You know that. 1296 01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:50,920 Speaker 3: That's why a sack is still more important, right than 1297 01:02:50,960 --> 01:02:53,440 Speaker 3: a pressure is because strip sacks exists. But when you 1298 01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:57,360 Speaker 3: just take a sack, then you are looking at yes 1299 01:02:57,360 --> 01:03:00,640 Speaker 3: it's a negative yardage, but you're not causing a turnover. 1300 01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:02,760 Speaker 1: So this is where I get it. This is where 1301 01:03:02,800 --> 01:03:05,080 Speaker 1: I have my problem with the nerds, because in theory, 1302 01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:07,360 Speaker 1: if you put it out on a spreadsheet, that all 1303 01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:10,600 Speaker 1: makes sense. Yes, what happens when you're playing Patrick Mahomes 1304 01:03:10,600 --> 01:03:15,000 Speaker 1: who's immune to pressure and you have to get him 1305 01:03:15,000 --> 01:03:18,400 Speaker 1: to the ground to end the play. I would rather 1306 01:03:18,640 --> 01:03:21,080 Speaker 1: just give me, give me a win, give me a 1307 01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:24,160 Speaker 1: win on the play, sack the quarterback, loss, the yards 1308 01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:26,560 Speaker 1: all that. Now, there's certain and there's certain quarterbacks you 1309 01:03:26,600 --> 01:03:29,280 Speaker 1: want to play differently, some quarterbacks, you know, we talked 1310 01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:32,120 Speaker 1: about this with Lamar Jackson, where you have to be 1311 01:03:32,160 --> 01:03:35,400 Speaker 1: really careful and going all out for the sack isn't 1312 01:03:35,400 --> 01:03:39,560 Speaker 1: necessarily the best thing because if he braks contained, goodbye, right, 1313 01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:42,560 Speaker 1: So I just think to generally, and we don't need 1314 01:03:42,600 --> 01:03:44,640 Speaker 1: to do the whole nerds versus whatever thing. But like, 1315 01:03:45,120 --> 01:03:50,640 Speaker 1: I just think generalizing it like that is so it's 1316 01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:54,360 Speaker 1: so tough because the situation matters well, except the nerds 1317 01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:57,560 Speaker 1: in baseball don't want the ball put in play. Well, 1318 01:03:57,600 --> 01:04:01,240 Speaker 1: that doesn't make any sense. No, the three truer outcomes 1319 01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:04,160 Speaker 1: home run this see walk. 1320 01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:06,920 Speaker 3: Not because it is a baseball show and my depth 1321 01:04:06,960 --> 01:04:09,680 Speaker 3: of knowledge of baseball nerdom is not nearly as. 1322 01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:11,680 Speaker 1: High as well, that's like an og nerdom. 1323 01:04:11,720 --> 01:04:16,080 Speaker 3: That is crazy to me, because the whole idea of 1324 01:04:16,120 --> 01:04:19,680 Speaker 3: it in football is that putting the ball in play, 1325 01:04:19,680 --> 01:04:25,040 Speaker 3: to use that term again, there are more likely outcomes 1326 01:04:25,120 --> 01:04:27,680 Speaker 3: that mistakes could happen with the ball in play. Like 1327 01:04:27,720 --> 01:04:31,320 Speaker 3: in baseball. If you put the ball in play there, yes, 1328 01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:33,600 Speaker 3: you could ground out to the shortstop, but the shortstop 1329 01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:35,919 Speaker 3: could also throw it ten feet over the first baseman's head, 1330 01:04:36,200 --> 01:04:39,160 Speaker 3: whereas if you strike out you have no chance of 1331 01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:39,640 Speaker 3: that happen. 1332 01:04:39,720 --> 01:04:42,840 Speaker 1: The difference is and I get we're not a baseball show, 1333 01:04:42,920 --> 01:04:44,120 Speaker 1: but just to educate. 1334 01:04:43,880 --> 01:04:45,880 Speaker 3: Honestly, the baseball nerd. This is the problem with the 1335 01:04:45,880 --> 01:04:48,560 Speaker 3: baseball nerds. They're bad at nerding. They don't know what 1336 01:04:48,600 --> 01:04:48,920 Speaker 3: they want. 1337 01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:50,800 Speaker 1: Well, but here's here's the way they look at it. 1338 01:04:51,840 --> 01:04:55,720 Speaker 1: If you get a single, great, yeah, but the odds 1339 01:04:55,720 --> 01:04:58,439 Speaker 1: of somebody driving you in from first are incredibly low 1340 01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:01,720 Speaker 1: because now you need another hit. And then they hate 1341 01:05:01,720 --> 01:05:05,320 Speaker 1: small ball, they hate moving a guy over. So their 1342 01:05:05,360 --> 01:05:09,120 Speaker 1: philosophy is swing for the fences because either you're gonna 1343 01:05:09,120 --> 01:05:11,200 Speaker 1: strike out whatever, you're probably gonna get out anyway, if 1344 01:05:11,200 --> 01:05:12,880 Speaker 1: you put the ball in play, right, seventy five percent 1345 01:05:12,880 --> 01:05:15,000 Speaker 1: of the time balls couldn't play, it's an out. If 1346 01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:16,880 Speaker 1: you're gonna swing for the fence that you're gonna strike 1347 01:05:16,920 --> 01:05:19,320 Speaker 1: out anyway, you're gonna hit a home run, so you score. 1348 01:05:19,920 --> 01:05:22,480 Speaker 1: They talk about three true outcomes, or you walk because 1349 01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:25,640 Speaker 1: more pitchers throw more balls than strikes. And then I 1350 01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:27,720 Speaker 1: guess the consolation is, well, if you swing for the fences, 1351 01:05:27,760 --> 01:05:29,520 Speaker 1: you make contact, you don't hit them run, maybe you 1352 01:05:29,520 --> 01:05:31,480 Speaker 1: get a double, and now it's easier to drive you in. 1353 01:05:31,800 --> 01:05:34,800 Speaker 1: They have zero interest in singles. And on the flip side, 1354 01:05:35,120 --> 01:05:37,200 Speaker 1: the pitching nerds don't want the ball in play either, 1355 01:05:37,480 --> 01:05:39,080 Speaker 1: because if you're not putting the ball in play, you 1356 01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:41,120 Speaker 1: know what you get to do. You get to build 1357 01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:43,120 Speaker 1: a whole lineup of sluggers, and it doesn't matter what 1358 01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:46,720 Speaker 1: positions they play, because if the pitchers pitching not to contact, 1359 01:05:46,760 --> 01:05:50,520 Speaker 1: they never have to field. It's just to me, that 1360 01:05:50,720 --> 01:05:53,600 Speaker 1: is bad nerding. Well it does. Those are your people, 1361 01:05:53,640 --> 01:05:54,080 Speaker 1: It doesn't. 1362 01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:56,760 Speaker 3: No, no, no, the baseball nerds are on their hold on 1363 01:05:56,800 --> 01:06:00,000 Speaker 3: a whole different Those are those are the founding fathers. 1364 01:06:00,280 --> 01:06:02,720 Speaker 1: No, those are your And by the founding fathers, you 1365 01:06:02,760 --> 01:06:05,600 Speaker 1: mean that they have it all. Those are your forefathers, Evan. No, 1366 01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:08,240 Speaker 1: they don't make any sense. Bill James, this is Bill 1367 01:06:08,320 --> 01:06:10,240 Speaker 1: James is the founder of all of this. 1368 01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:13,120 Speaker 3: How you would prefer a strikeout over putting the ball 1369 01:06:13,160 --> 01:06:17,200 Speaker 3: in play in baseball is just logically just makes no sense. 1370 01:06:17,480 --> 01:06:20,240 Speaker 3: Like you're guaranteed and out with a strikeout, You're not 1371 01:06:20,360 --> 01:06:22,160 Speaker 3: guaranteed to get out if you put the ball on. 1372 01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:26,960 Speaker 1: Well, I would say, you sack the quarterback. You're guaranteed 1373 01:06:26,960 --> 01:06:29,080 Speaker 1: a loss. Yes, you let him put the ball in 1374 01:06:29,120 --> 01:06:32,120 Speaker 1: the air. Anything still possible. So I'll take the sack 1375 01:06:33,160 --> 01:06:34,800 Speaker 1: for the same logic you just used. 1376 01:06:35,120 --> 01:06:39,840 Speaker 3: You're you're you're not wrong, and I thankfully the football 1377 01:06:39,920 --> 01:06:43,280 Speaker 3: nerds recognize that pressure and causing disruption on the quarterback. 1378 01:06:44,360 --> 01:06:48,479 Speaker 3: We have obviously data that directly tells you that any 1379 01:06:48,560 --> 01:06:52,440 Speaker 3: quarterback from Patrick Mahomes to Tom Brady to Mac Jones 1380 01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:55,840 Speaker 3: is worse under pressure than with no pressure in a 1381 01:06:55,840 --> 01:06:59,720 Speaker 3: clean pocket. Yeah, duh right, But it's not just duh like. 1382 01:07:00,080 --> 01:07:04,920 Speaker 3: It is a big, big gap. Like we're talking about 1383 01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:08,240 Speaker 3: the league average passer rating from a clean pocket being 1384 01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:12,120 Speaker 3: like high nineties versus the league average passer rating while 1385 01:07:12,200 --> 01:07:16,880 Speaker 3: under pressure being in like the fifties or the low sixties. Right, 1386 01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:20,680 Speaker 3: We're talking about a huge, huge gap between those two things. 1387 01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:24,760 Speaker 3: So that's why no like pressure, even if it's not 1388 01:07:24,920 --> 01:07:28,040 Speaker 3: sack is still so much better than nothing, right, is 1389 01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:31,320 Speaker 3: because any quarterback from Mahomes on down is gonna be 1390 01:07:31,360 --> 01:07:34,760 Speaker 3: worse under pressure. Right, all Right, we've done enough nerd 1391 01:07:34,840 --> 01:07:38,320 Speaker 3: them for today, and the baseball nerds like just come 1392 01:07:38,360 --> 01:07:38,880 Speaker 3: back to us. 1393 01:07:38,960 --> 01:07:41,040 Speaker 1: Okay, last question. 1394 01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:43,120 Speaker 3: Here from the Twitter poll and then and then we 1395 01:07:43,120 --> 01:07:45,720 Speaker 3: can get to everybody else. What can we expect from 1396 01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:48,600 Speaker 3: a cornerback Isaiah Bolden this year and in the summer? 1397 01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:50,360 Speaker 3: Is he going to be a full time special teamer? 1398 01:07:50,480 --> 01:07:53,200 Speaker 3: This is a very very popular question people want to 1399 01:07:53,240 --> 01:07:54,280 Speaker 3: know about Isaiah Bulden. 1400 01:07:54,760 --> 01:07:57,160 Speaker 1: So Isaia's popular last year too, before we got hurt. 1401 01:07:57,160 --> 01:07:58,760 Speaker 3: I think that's why people want to know about Isaiah 1402 01:07:58,760 --> 01:08:01,480 Speaker 3: Bulden because until that Green Bay game, not only was 1403 01:08:01,520 --> 01:08:03,439 Speaker 3: there buzz in camp, but you know, he played well 1404 01:08:03,760 --> 01:08:06,320 Speaker 3: against Houston, had some good plays on the ball as well, 1405 01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:08,600 Speaker 3: if I remember correctly in that first preseason game. 1406 01:08:09,160 --> 01:08:10,680 Speaker 1: He's an interesting. 1407 01:08:10,280 --> 01:08:13,280 Speaker 3: Player because yes, he has a very very good chance 1408 01:08:13,600 --> 01:08:16,880 Speaker 3: to be a core contributor on special teams for a while, 1409 01:08:17,200 --> 01:08:18,799 Speaker 3: like a real impact player. 1410 01:08:18,840 --> 01:08:19,240 Speaker 1: Potentially. 1411 01:08:19,280 --> 01:08:22,759 Speaker 3: He's got size, he's got speed, he's got tackling ability, 1412 01:08:23,120 --> 01:08:26,000 Speaker 3: he's got all the tools to be a really good 1413 01:08:26,040 --> 01:08:28,880 Speaker 3: special teamer. And then on top of that, he's got size, 1414 01:08:28,920 --> 01:08:31,400 Speaker 3: he's got speed, and he's got some athleticism and skill 1415 01:08:31,800 --> 01:08:34,040 Speaker 3: that maybe he can make it as a corner. They've 1416 01:08:34,040 --> 01:08:37,080 Speaker 3: played him at slot, they've played him outside. They're trying 1417 01:08:37,080 --> 01:08:39,519 Speaker 3: to find a role for him on defense. My guess 1418 01:08:39,560 --> 01:08:42,559 Speaker 3: is that for now he'll be a utility man on 1419 01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:45,200 Speaker 3: defense that's probably the fourth or fifth corner on the 1420 01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:47,960 Speaker 3: depth chart and a core special teamer. But I don't 1421 01:08:48,000 --> 01:08:50,240 Speaker 3: necessarily have him in the locked territory yet. Like I 1422 01:08:50,560 --> 01:08:54,120 Speaker 3: moved Alex Austin over to the lock column. But I'm 1423 01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:57,599 Speaker 3: I think Isaiah Bolden has a high probability of being 1424 01:08:57,600 --> 01:08:58,160 Speaker 3: on the roster. 1425 01:08:58,320 --> 01:09:00,800 Speaker 1: Well, it's gonna be big for him in my is 1426 01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:03,640 Speaker 1: how he looks in the slot, because as much as 1427 01:09:03,680 --> 01:09:06,240 Speaker 1: I like this cornerback room, they are a little thin 1428 01:09:06,800 --> 01:09:09,040 Speaker 1: in the slot, especially if Jonathan Jones is still gonna 1429 01:09:09,040 --> 01:09:11,120 Speaker 1: play on the boundary, because now it's Marcus Jones and 1430 01:09:11,160 --> 01:09:14,839 Speaker 1: then Sean Wade. Yeah, so like you said, if Isaiah 1431 01:09:14,880 --> 01:09:17,760 Speaker 1: bold improves, he can be your backup slot corner. We 1432 01:09:17,840 --> 01:09:19,960 Speaker 1: know he can give you reps in depth on the boundary, 1433 01:09:20,240 --> 01:09:22,439 Speaker 1: maybe play a little safety, and he's gonna play on 1434 01:09:22,479 --> 01:09:24,400 Speaker 1: special teams. That's how you make the team is you 1435 01:09:24,479 --> 01:09:27,040 Speaker 1: do all these different things. So I think he's probably 1436 01:09:27,040 --> 01:09:29,080 Speaker 1: best as a boundary corner. I think that's where he 1437 01:09:29,120 --> 01:09:32,479 Speaker 1: should play the most. But he's not gonna make I 1438 01:09:32,560 --> 01:09:38,439 Speaker 1: mean Gonzales, John Jones, He's playing out there, Alex Austen, 1439 01:09:38,840 --> 01:09:41,760 Speaker 1: Marco Wilson. There's not a ton of reps available at 1440 01:09:41,800 --> 01:09:44,679 Speaker 1: boundary corner, So he buys some time on that. Being 1441 01:09:44,720 --> 01:09:46,559 Speaker 1: able to give them depth in the slot, being able 1442 01:09:46,560 --> 01:09:49,040 Speaker 1: to give them productive special teams play, That's how he's 1443 01:09:49,040 --> 01:09:50,840 Speaker 1: gonna make the team, so I'm really watching him in 1444 01:09:50,840 --> 01:09:51,719 Speaker 1: the slot this summer. 1445 01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:54,920 Speaker 3: I've encouraged a little bit by the fact that they 1446 01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:57,719 Speaker 3: are trying some bigger bodies in the slot than what they've. 1447 01:09:57,600 --> 01:10:00,559 Speaker 1: Used in the past. That's a good point, because yes, 1448 01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:03,360 Speaker 1: there's still the world where you're gonna have to cover 1449 01:10:03,439 --> 01:10:06,840 Speaker 1: the jitterbug slot receive, the Julian Edelman Wes Welker slot receiver. 1450 01:10:06,960 --> 01:10:09,120 Speaker 1: Let's play Dolphins twice here, yeah. 1451 01:10:08,840 --> 01:10:11,080 Speaker 3: Or the speed slot receiver, you know, the vertical speed 1452 01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:14,639 Speaker 3: slot receiver. Those guys exist. It's still across the league 1453 01:10:14,640 --> 01:10:16,679 Speaker 3: and you're gonna have to worry about that in division. 1454 01:10:16,720 --> 01:10:18,000 Speaker 1: You just mentioned the Dolphins. 1455 01:10:18,439 --> 01:10:20,439 Speaker 3: The Bills have Khlil Shaker, who I think is gonna 1456 01:10:20,439 --> 01:10:22,439 Speaker 3: be a breakout player for them potentially this year. 1457 01:10:23,400 --> 01:10:25,360 Speaker 1: The Jets, well, Josh Allen'll get all the credit for that. 1458 01:10:26,080 --> 01:10:29,000 Speaker 3: The Jets, I feel like they do have someone on 1459 01:10:29,040 --> 01:10:31,200 Speaker 3: their roster like that, and I'm blanking. 1460 01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:32,559 Speaker 1: Signed Jamison Crowder again. 1461 01:10:32,880 --> 01:10:35,960 Speaker 3: No, I don't think it's him, but they they might not. 1462 01:10:36,200 --> 01:10:39,880 Speaker 1: I I know it sounds right, hang on, Yeah, I feel. 1463 01:10:39,600 --> 01:10:42,400 Speaker 3: Like they do have somebody. I know they traded Elijah More, 1464 01:10:42,479 --> 01:10:43,760 Speaker 3: but it was somebody like that. 1465 01:10:43,840 --> 01:10:46,400 Speaker 1: Oh they drafted Malachai Corley. 1466 01:10:46,280 --> 01:10:50,880 Speaker 3: Matt, thank you Malachai Corley, who's deebo light like he's thicker, 1467 01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:53,719 Speaker 3: you know, like Marcus Jones might might have a tough 1468 01:10:53,720 --> 01:10:55,639 Speaker 3: time tackling Malachai Courtley. 1469 01:10:56,200 --> 01:10:58,559 Speaker 1: So Jameson crowded by the way, still in the NFL. 1470 01:10:58,680 --> 01:11:01,559 Speaker 1: Good he's only thirty one. Uh. 1471 01:11:02,280 --> 01:11:06,839 Speaker 3: Anyways, having not necessarily being super reliant on the Miles 1472 01:11:06,880 --> 01:11:10,040 Speaker 3: Bryant Marcus Jones body type in the slot and having 1473 01:11:10,120 --> 01:11:13,040 Speaker 3: that ability, they're gonna play some big nickel and big 1474 01:11:13,080 --> 01:11:15,719 Speaker 3: dime where it might be a Kyle Duggar or Jabriel Peppers. 1475 01:11:15,720 --> 01:11:19,599 Speaker 3: That's Marty Mapu who's playing that role, that that star role. 1476 01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:21,920 Speaker 3: But it also could be an Isaiah Bolden, or it 1477 01:11:21,920 --> 01:11:23,840 Speaker 3: could be a Sean Wayne, you know, somebody has a 1478 01:11:23,880 --> 01:11:27,000 Speaker 3: little bit more size and in ability to It's so 1479 01:11:27,080 --> 01:11:30,720 Speaker 3: important at that position, I think because for two reasons. One, 1480 01:11:30,960 --> 01:11:33,960 Speaker 3: the slot receiver, you have to tackle back those guys 1481 01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:36,240 Speaker 3: a lot with the ball in their hands. And two, 1482 01:11:36,680 --> 01:11:38,240 Speaker 3: you're at the point of attack in the run game 1483 01:11:38,400 --> 01:11:42,280 Speaker 3: a lot because you're basically the strong side linebacker, right 1484 01:11:42,320 --> 01:11:44,600 Speaker 3: like that, that's basically the role that you're playing in 1485 01:11:44,600 --> 01:11:46,920 Speaker 3: a in a in a nickel or dime defense. So 1486 01:11:47,720 --> 01:11:50,120 Speaker 3: having somebody there that's got a little bit more size 1487 01:11:50,280 --> 01:11:52,719 Speaker 3: and a little bit more play strength is not necessarily 1488 01:11:52,760 --> 01:11:55,479 Speaker 3: a bad thing, you know. They they've guess part of 1489 01:11:55,520 --> 01:11:57,479 Speaker 3: it was out of these are the guys on the team, 1490 01:11:57,640 --> 01:12:01,080 Speaker 3: like Marcus Jones, Miles Bryant, John Than Jones, those are 1491 01:12:01,120 --> 01:12:03,200 Speaker 3: the guys on the team. But it was also because 1492 01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:06,400 Speaker 3: teams tried to emulate the Patriots, and they try to 1493 01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:08,599 Speaker 3: get Edelman's and Welkers and like those types of guys 1494 01:12:08,600 --> 01:12:10,600 Speaker 3: in the slot. Now you're seeing guys that are a 1495 01:12:10,640 --> 01:12:13,280 Speaker 3: little bit bigger, that have ball carrying skill, you know, 1496 01:12:13,320 --> 01:12:16,200 Speaker 3: the depot types. And now all of a sudden, it's 1497 01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:19,800 Speaker 3: a little bit more of a position where even safeties 1498 01:12:19,960 --> 01:12:22,040 Speaker 3: have played a lot more in the slot because of this. 1499 01:12:22,200 --> 01:12:25,360 Speaker 3: So I'm looking forward to seeing Isaiah Bolden the slot too, 1500 01:12:25,360 --> 01:12:28,080 Speaker 3: because maybe he will give them a different body type 1501 01:12:28,080 --> 01:12:30,280 Speaker 3: in there if they want to go that direction. Sure, 1502 01:12:30,439 --> 01:12:33,439 Speaker 3: And no Miles Bryant. I know people didn't like Miles Bryant, 1503 01:12:33,760 --> 01:12:36,439 Speaker 3: but that's a hole. Like he played a ton of 1504 01:12:36,479 --> 01:12:37,640 Speaker 3: snaps for this team last year. 1505 01:12:37,680 --> 01:12:39,759 Speaker 1: We are a pro Miles Bryant show. We always happened 1506 01:12:39,840 --> 01:12:41,880 Speaker 1: that to me, is the ideal role for Marcus Jones 1507 01:12:42,240 --> 01:12:44,479 Speaker 1: is that Jonathan Jones is in the slot full time. 1508 01:12:44,840 --> 01:12:47,000 Speaker 1: You have a guy like Isaiah Bolden or Sean Wade 1509 01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:49,400 Speaker 1: who can kind of give you some snaps in the slot, 1510 01:12:49,600 --> 01:12:51,880 Speaker 1: and then Marcus Jones is in the slot in certain 1511 01:12:51,880 --> 01:12:54,800 Speaker 1: matchups and maybe play nickel or safety in certain matchups. Yes, 1512 01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:57,960 Speaker 1: and obviously returning kicks. All right, now, William is in Philly. 1513 01:12:58,000 --> 01:12:58,320 Speaker 1: What's up? 1514 01:12:58,320 --> 01:12:59,759 Speaker 3: William? 1515 01:13:00,520 --> 01:13:01,840 Speaker 1: Hey? Ever? How you doing good? 1516 01:13:02,880 --> 01:13:05,040 Speaker 5: All right? How you doing Alex hate? 1517 01:13:05,600 --> 01:13:05,880 Speaker 3: All right? 1518 01:13:06,760 --> 01:13:09,439 Speaker 5: I have two takes. I'm sitting here listening to you, 1519 01:13:09,439 --> 01:13:11,599 Speaker 5: two gentlemen, And first of all, y'all do an hour 1520 01:13:11,680 --> 01:13:14,519 Speaker 5: standing job, and you just get right to it. Okay, 1521 01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:18,000 Speaker 5: just two takes, and and I'm gonna get out y'all way, Okay, 1522 01:13:18,120 --> 01:13:21,599 Speaker 5: First and foremost, I'm listening to you all talking about 1523 01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:24,240 Speaker 5: wide receiver, and I'm kind of y'all really blowing with 1524 01:13:24,360 --> 01:13:26,120 Speaker 5: this bow in my mind with it like I'm really 1525 01:13:26,160 --> 01:13:28,960 Speaker 5: shocked at both feet. You know, you already know what 1526 01:13:29,000 --> 01:13:32,080 Speaker 5: it looks, what it looks like without a number one 1527 01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:36,479 Speaker 5: wide receiver. It's time Fells, not twenty twenty four twenty 1528 01:13:36,479 --> 01:13:39,920 Speaker 5: twenty five, twenty twenty stake twenty twenty seven. Nah, and 1529 01:13:39,960 --> 01:13:41,920 Speaker 5: I'm trying to figure out how you're gonna get DK neckhand. 1530 01:13:41,960 --> 01:13:43,400 Speaker 5: So you got to give a first round pick if 1531 01:13:43,400 --> 01:13:46,400 Speaker 5: I'm not mistaken, So I don't how's that gonna work? Again? 1532 01:13:46,439 --> 01:13:48,360 Speaker 5: You got Evan talking about getting the tackled in the 1533 01:13:48,520 --> 01:13:53,120 Speaker 5: draft next year, and the second take two? Is this, 1534 01:13:53,400 --> 01:13:56,559 Speaker 5: Evan U if the Patients had the number one pick 1535 01:13:56,600 --> 01:14:00,839 Speaker 5: or number two pick, I'm sorry, Will Johnson, Madison Graham, 1536 01:14:01,160 --> 01:14:04,360 Speaker 5: Travis Hunter. I forgot the edge rusher from I think 1537 01:14:04,360 --> 01:14:07,920 Speaker 5: he's from Texas whatever, James whatever, and then the Wilde 1538 01:14:07,960 --> 01:14:11,519 Speaker 5: receiver from Arizona. Everybody wants t Matt. I'm sorry, Evan, 1539 01:14:11,720 --> 01:14:15,200 Speaker 5: I ain't doing that because guess what they they supposed 1540 01:14:15,200 --> 01:14:18,559 Speaker 5: to got that tackle this year. Man period. They wait 1541 01:14:18,640 --> 01:14:21,559 Speaker 5: to a third round and play the round. Okay, because 1542 01:14:21,600 --> 01:14:23,719 Speaker 5: Ellen Wook want to be like his daddy on fourteen, 1543 01:14:23,800 --> 01:14:26,080 Speaker 5: want to build a team like the package. No, this 1544 01:14:26,200 --> 01:14:28,640 Speaker 5: is the new England Patriots. We ain't got time. We 1545 01:14:28,960 --> 01:14:32,240 Speaker 5: wasting time for us. We're five years in now and 1546 01:14:32,280 --> 01:14:34,519 Speaker 5: you still don't have your blue chip talents for each 1547 01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:37,800 Speaker 5: each piece to tackle the receiver even I need it, 1548 01:14:37,840 --> 01:14:40,080 Speaker 5: we need even another corner. I don't want to see 1549 01:14:40,160 --> 01:14:43,600 Speaker 5: Jonathan Jones get massed by Ti Higgins like you know 1550 01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:45,000 Speaker 5: what I mean. I don't want him on the boundary. 1551 01:14:45,040 --> 01:14:47,120 Speaker 5: Put him back in the nickel where he belonged at 1552 01:14:47,439 --> 01:14:49,400 Speaker 5: you know what I mean? Yeah, that's it, gentlemen. 1553 01:14:49,479 --> 01:14:51,840 Speaker 3: I love the fire william I always love the energy. 1554 01:14:52,760 --> 01:14:55,640 Speaker 3: Just to be fair and I he's made a lot 1555 01:14:55,680 --> 01:14:58,160 Speaker 3: of really good points. I'm not trying to, you know, 1556 01:14:58,200 --> 01:15:00,760 Speaker 3: completely go at him, but just to be fair, it's 1557 01:15:00,760 --> 01:15:04,320 Speaker 3: not your five for Elliot Wolf and Frodmeo, it's your one, right, 1558 01:15:04,320 --> 01:15:06,360 Speaker 3: I get it, No, I get but I hear what 1559 01:15:06,360 --> 01:15:09,800 Speaker 3: he's saying. So the biggest thing with with receiver and 1560 01:15:11,520 --> 01:15:14,240 Speaker 3: I am going to disagree with people in the draft 1561 01:15:14,720 --> 01:15:17,040 Speaker 3: about this. I am going to tell you that they 1562 01:15:17,040 --> 01:15:18,040 Speaker 3: should draft to tackle. 1563 01:15:18,439 --> 01:15:19,080 Speaker 1: You all are. 1564 01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:23,160 Speaker 3: Gonna not everybody. I shouldn't group everyone together. There's gonna 1565 01:15:23,160 --> 01:15:24,800 Speaker 3: be a lot of Williams that are gonna tell me 1566 01:15:24,880 --> 01:15:26,600 Speaker 3: I'm crazy, right, and he just I. 1567 01:15:26,560 --> 01:15:28,320 Speaker 1: Don't know how much we hear about James Pierce though, 1568 01:15:28,320 --> 01:15:29,679 Speaker 1: so Tennessee James Pearce. 1569 01:15:30,160 --> 01:15:32,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot of names that he threw at us. 1570 01:15:32,479 --> 01:15:38,960 Speaker 3: That also makes sense, Okay, But everybody always tells you 1571 01:15:39,000 --> 01:15:41,640 Speaker 3: the same thing about tackles. It's like getting socks and 1572 01:15:41,720 --> 01:15:44,240 Speaker 3: underwear for Christmas. Right, It's not what you it's not 1573 01:15:44,479 --> 01:15:47,200 Speaker 3: the shining need toy, it's not the PS five, Right, 1574 01:15:47,240 --> 01:15:49,439 Speaker 3: it's not what you really want. But at the end 1575 01:15:49,479 --> 01:15:53,479 Speaker 3: of the day, it's something that every single person on 1576 01:15:53,560 --> 01:15:56,760 Speaker 3: planet Earth needs socks and underwear. Right, it's what you need. 1577 01:15:56,960 --> 01:15:59,040 Speaker 3: Sometimes it's not what you want, it's what you need. 1578 01:15:59,600 --> 01:16:03,200 Speaker 3: And if they go into next offseason and they have 1579 01:16:03,280 --> 01:16:07,040 Speaker 3: no answer at left tackle, but they have some young 1580 01:16:07,120 --> 01:16:10,720 Speaker 3: receivers in Jalen Polk and jaybon Baker and Pop Douglas 1581 01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:14,920 Speaker 3: who are emerging, and they have an opportunity to go 1582 01:16:14,960 --> 01:16:18,200 Speaker 3: out in free agency or in the trade, where it's 1583 01:16:18,479 --> 01:16:21,360 Speaker 3: far more likely that you're gonna address receiver than it 1584 01:16:21,439 --> 01:16:26,679 Speaker 3: is tackle. Yeah, Premium left tackles, like starting caliber, good 1585 01:16:26,800 --> 01:16:29,880 Speaker 3: left tackles do not hit the open market too often 1586 01:16:30,120 --> 01:16:32,639 Speaker 3: because they're not enough of them. It's there's a there's 1587 01:16:32,680 --> 01:16:35,559 Speaker 3: a there's not enough supply to meet the demand. So 1588 01:16:35,640 --> 01:16:37,680 Speaker 3: if you have a if you're a team that has 1589 01:16:37,720 --> 01:16:40,439 Speaker 3: a very very good left tackle, you don't just let 1590 01:16:40,479 --> 01:16:43,160 Speaker 3: that guy walk out the door. So in order to 1591 01:16:43,200 --> 01:16:46,120 Speaker 3: find that type of player, it's much easier to find 1592 01:16:46,120 --> 01:16:49,680 Speaker 3: the receiver in the veteran market, trade free agency than 1593 01:16:49,720 --> 01:16:53,000 Speaker 3: the tackle. So draft the tackle, trade for the receiver. 1594 01:16:53,479 --> 01:16:54,240 Speaker 3: Everybody's happy. 1595 01:16:54,320 --> 01:16:55,720 Speaker 1: And to what the callers said, Well, what if you 1596 01:16:55,760 --> 01:16:57,120 Speaker 1: have to give up your first round pick to get 1597 01:16:57,120 --> 01:17:02,120 Speaker 1: the receiver. Most of these receivers have gone for second 1598 01:17:02,160 --> 01:17:06,720 Speaker 1: round picks. That's just kind of been the price. Worst case, Nara, 1599 01:17:06,800 --> 01:17:09,280 Speaker 1: if you need to up the offer, you do essentially 1600 01:17:09,320 --> 01:17:12,240 Speaker 1: what the Vikings did this year. You use your second 1601 01:17:12,320 --> 01:17:15,120 Speaker 1: round pick and some more assets to trade up late 1602 01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:17,719 Speaker 1: into the first and then you move that pick. 1603 01:17:18,800 --> 01:17:21,960 Speaker 3: I understand that we all want the Patriots to have 1604 01:17:21,960 --> 01:17:22,960 Speaker 3: the superstar receiver. 1605 01:17:23,160 --> 01:17:24,320 Speaker 1: We all want that guy. 1606 01:17:24,520 --> 01:17:28,240 Speaker 3: We've all wanted that guy for years, really since Gronkowski 1607 01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:32,080 Speaker 3: became aging. You know, Gronkowski started to break down right 1608 01:17:32,439 --> 01:17:34,479 Speaker 3: towards the end of his career here, you know eighteen 1609 01:17:35,040 --> 01:17:37,679 Speaker 3: with the Patriots. They've been searching for it, and we've 1610 01:17:37,720 --> 01:17:39,760 Speaker 3: wanted it and all that kind of stuff. I'm not 1611 01:17:39,840 --> 01:17:42,400 Speaker 3: saying don't get it. I'm just saying get it in 1612 01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:45,599 Speaker 3: a different way, right, get it through the veteran market 1613 01:17:46,200 --> 01:17:50,120 Speaker 3: draft the tackle. Those are where you get the tackles from. 1614 01:17:50,400 --> 01:17:52,720 Speaker 3: You can't get the tackle in free agency, like even 1615 01:17:52,800 --> 01:17:55,840 Speaker 3: last year, and we clamored for them to sign one 1616 01:17:55,880 --> 01:17:58,360 Speaker 3: of the name tackles in free agency last year, you know, 1617 01:17:58,400 --> 01:18:02,800 Speaker 3: the mcglinchy, the McGarry's. I still think that those guys 1618 01:18:02,840 --> 01:18:04,879 Speaker 3: would have we would have been better off, the Patriots 1619 01:18:04,880 --> 01:18:06,920 Speaker 3: would have been better off in the long term signing 1620 01:18:06,920 --> 01:18:11,599 Speaker 3: one of those players. But those guys are not blue 1621 01:18:11,680 --> 01:18:15,639 Speaker 3: chip tackles. Those guys are serviceable NFL players, but they 1622 01:18:15,680 --> 01:18:19,160 Speaker 3: are not even very good tackles. They're probably like tier three, 1623 01:18:19,200 --> 01:18:21,280 Speaker 3: tier four tackles. If you want a tier one, tier 1624 01:18:21,280 --> 01:18:24,040 Speaker 3: two tackle, you need to draft that guy. That that's 1625 01:18:24,080 --> 01:18:27,679 Speaker 3: the bottom line. I also, I don't have a ton 1626 01:18:27,760 --> 01:18:30,040 Speaker 3: and this is it's early, so we'll see. I don't 1627 01:18:30,040 --> 01:18:31,800 Speaker 3: have a ton of interest in Travis Hunter. Am I 1628 01:18:31,880 --> 01:18:32,439 Speaker 3: wrong for that? 1629 01:18:32,720 --> 01:18:36,479 Speaker 1: Like I just if you see, if you're looking at 1630 01:18:36,479 --> 01:18:42,400 Speaker 1: Travis Hunter and thinking he's going to play in the 1631 01:18:42,520 --> 01:18:44,640 Speaker 1: NFL like he plays in college, like Marcus Jones, but 1632 01:18:44,720 --> 01:18:49,760 Speaker 1: on steroids, right, like literally, but like figuratively, he's not 1633 01:18:49,960 --> 01:18:52,680 Speaker 1: going to play entirely on offense and entire If you 1634 01:18:52,720 --> 01:18:55,800 Speaker 1: try to do that one is physically, it's gonna be 1635 01:18:55,840 --> 01:18:58,800 Speaker 1: too much. In two. He's a great player, but there's 1636 01:18:58,840 --> 01:19:01,160 Speaker 1: still some development needed. See what he does this year, 1637 01:19:01,200 --> 01:19:05,120 Speaker 1: but especially as a receiver, he needs to get the 1638 01:19:05,200 --> 01:19:07,360 Speaker 1: work in. And if he's splitting all that time between 1639 01:19:07,360 --> 01:19:09,799 Speaker 1: the two sides of the ball, he'll never fully master 1640 01:19:09,880 --> 01:19:12,240 Speaker 1: one position. And if you're using a pick on a 1641 01:19:12,280 --> 01:19:14,719 Speaker 1: player that high, you want a guy that that's gonna 1642 01:19:14,760 --> 01:19:18,120 Speaker 1: master a position. So he's a corner, and he is 1643 01:19:18,160 --> 01:19:20,000 Speaker 1: a much better corner than receiver. I think he is 1644 01:19:20,040 --> 01:19:22,519 Speaker 1: a corner at the next level. Now, if you're somebody 1645 01:19:22,520 --> 01:19:24,360 Speaker 1: who believes, and there is an argument to be made, 1646 01:19:24,360 --> 01:19:26,160 Speaker 1: I'm not on this boat. In this boat, but if 1647 01:19:26,200 --> 01:19:28,559 Speaker 1: you're somebody who believes the Patriots first round pick should 1648 01:19:28,560 --> 01:19:32,160 Speaker 1: be a corner, Travis Hunters in the conversation, it's him 1649 01:19:32,160 --> 01:19:35,080 Speaker 1: and Will Johnson from Michigan. Will Johnson's the corner that 1650 01:19:35,160 --> 01:19:38,679 Speaker 1: everybody's all hot bothered about this year. I think they're right. 1651 01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:41,840 Speaker 1: I think no the draft people up too. He can play. 1652 01:19:42,240 --> 01:19:43,360 Speaker 1: He can play. He's really good. 1653 01:19:43,520 --> 01:19:47,160 Speaker 3: He's probably more of that typical shutdown corner. 1654 01:19:47,280 --> 01:19:48,439 Speaker 1: He's a big body. 1655 01:19:48,840 --> 01:19:52,160 Speaker 3: Travis Hunter playmaking corner. Yeah, he's gonna, you know, not 1656 01:19:52,280 --> 01:19:55,520 Speaker 3: to no one's Dion Sanders, but like, you know, he's 1657 01:19:55,560 --> 01:19:58,080 Speaker 3: like Will Johnson reminds me more of like a revis, 1658 01:19:58,080 --> 01:20:00,639 Speaker 3: whereas Travis Hunter is more like Raymon Diggs. 1659 01:20:01,080 --> 01:20:02,320 Speaker 1: Sure, Trayvon Diggs. 1660 01:20:02,080 --> 01:20:05,840 Speaker 3: Probably a more app compton, maybe the greatest quarterback of 1661 01:20:05,840 --> 01:20:06,360 Speaker 3: all right. 1662 01:20:06,240 --> 01:20:10,640 Speaker 1: Will Johnson's a little more physical, he's probably Honestly, there's like, 1663 01:20:11,439 --> 01:20:14,000 Speaker 1: you got to modernize this. Yeah, there are some shades 1664 01:20:14,000 --> 01:20:16,439 Speaker 1: of like a keep to leap. Yeah, uh in there. 1665 01:20:16,880 --> 01:20:18,400 Speaker 1: It's not a perfect comp but we got got a 1666 01:20:18,400 --> 01:20:21,439 Speaker 1: whole season to figure these guys out. Yeah, that's not bad. 1667 01:20:21,640 --> 01:20:24,439 Speaker 1: I could see that if you want a corner, Like, 1668 01:20:24,800 --> 01:20:26,560 Speaker 1: if you're sitting here saying I want the Patriots to 1669 01:20:26,560 --> 01:20:28,880 Speaker 1: take a corner in the first round, there's certainly an 1670 01:20:28,960 --> 01:20:31,160 Speaker 1: argument to be made for Travis Hunter. If you're sitting 1671 01:20:31,200 --> 01:20:33,040 Speaker 1: there saying, Travis Hunter is gonna play on both sides 1672 01:20:33,080 --> 01:20:34,759 Speaker 1: of the ball and he's going to be the first 1673 01:20:34,800 --> 01:20:38,320 Speaker 1: two way all Pro since like teams only had thirty 1674 01:20:38,320 --> 01:20:41,080 Speaker 1: players on the roster. Yeah, no, you're kidding yourself. That 1675 01:20:41,200 --> 01:20:43,200 Speaker 1: just can't be done in the NFL. It's it's not 1676 01:20:43,240 --> 01:20:44,920 Speaker 1: going to be done in the NFL. 1677 01:20:44,840 --> 01:20:48,200 Speaker 3: Hey Awks, Yes, you're hosting for July fourth.

We 1682 01:20:57,880 --> 01:20:59,880 Speaker 3: still had a good time even though I rained this year. 1683 01:21:00,040 --> 01:21:01,920 Speaker 3: This year we're one hundred percent in all right. So 1684 01:21:01,960 --> 01:21:04,320 Speaker 3: since you're hosting for July fourth, there's always room for 1685 01:21:04,360 --> 01:21:07,280 Speaker 3: one more.

So we have a 1701 01:21:53,479 --> 01:21:55,880 Speaker 3: nice little beach beach vacation coming. 1702 01:21:56,080 --> 01:21:57,799 Speaker 1: Next week's the week we won't have a show next week. 1703 01:21:57,840 --> 01:22:00,840 Speaker 3: That's good point. So next week we not have a show. 1704 01:22:01,240 --> 01:22:04,360 Speaker 3: This is my my annual trip to Martha's Vineyard really quickly, 1705 01:22:04,439 --> 01:22:05,800 Speaker 3: and then we'll get back to the questions in the 1706 01:22:05,840 --> 01:22:09,000 Speaker 3: YouTube chat, is where I want to go next? Last year, 1707 01:22:10,000 --> 01:22:12,680 Speaker 3: on our trip to the vineyard in July that we 1708 01:22:12,720 --> 01:22:16,080 Speaker 3: take every year, I proposed this year, we're not. We're 1709 01:22:16,120 --> 01:22:18,240 Speaker 3: not getting married this summer're gonna get married next summer. 1710 01:22:18,560 --> 01:22:22,040 Speaker 3: So it's no, it's not gonna be anywhere near as good, like, 1711 01:22:22,120 --> 01:22:24,240 Speaker 3: so what what can I pull out of my my 1712 01:22:24,360 --> 01:22:27,160 Speaker 3: rear end to It's not gonna be engagement and it's 1713 01:22:27,160 --> 01:22:28,040 Speaker 3: not gonna be weddings. 1714 01:22:28,080 --> 01:22:31,160 Speaker 1: So it's like, this is that buffer year in between. Well, 1715 01:22:31,200 --> 01:22:33,120 Speaker 1: in the year before you got a job, because the 1716 01:22:33,160 --> 01:22:36,000 Speaker 1: year before was when the Patriots the job. 1717 01:22:36,000 --> 01:22:38,040 Speaker 3: But she didn't love that though, because I was like 1718 01:22:38,160 --> 01:22:42,920 Speaker 3: negotiating the job on vacation. But in general, this one 1719 01:22:43,040 --> 01:22:45,120 Speaker 3: is going to be out of like this three year 1720 01:22:45,200 --> 01:22:47,880 Speaker 3: stretch for us. This is gonna be like this weird 1721 01:22:48,000 --> 01:22:50,320 Speaker 3: middle down here. Yeah, this is the down year. It's 1722 01:22:50,360 --> 01:22:52,800 Speaker 3: like next year is gonna be a wedding. This this 1723 01:22:52,840 --> 01:22:55,720 Speaker 3: past year was engagement. So maybe I'll maybe I'll pull 1724 01:22:55,760 --> 01:22:57,640 Speaker 3: something out, like at least like a romantic dinner or 1725 01:22:57,680 --> 01:22:59,599 Speaker 3: something like that. I would hope you figure at least 1726 01:22:59,640 --> 01:23:01,639 Speaker 3: a dinner out. Yeah, So I was kind of thinking, 1727 01:23:01,720 --> 01:23:04,040 Speaker 3: and and again, I know nobody cares about this. I 1728 01:23:04,080 --> 01:23:07,160 Speaker 3: was kind of thinking of like maybe like not like 1729 01:23:07,200 --> 01:23:10,120 Speaker 3: redoing the whole engagement, but like doing the same like 1730 01:23:10,880 --> 01:23:14,040 Speaker 3: night that we did last year, you know, same dinner spot, 1731 01:23:14,439 --> 01:23:17,880 Speaker 3: same walk on the beach, like that whole thing. Ring though, 1732 01:23:18,040 --> 01:23:20,000 Speaker 3: just kind of like relive it a little bit. Maybe 1733 01:23:20,040 --> 01:23:21,920 Speaker 3: I'll take the ring off her finger and like put 1734 01:23:21,920 --> 01:23:22,599 Speaker 3: it back on or. 1735 01:23:22,520 --> 01:23:23,680 Speaker 1: Something another ring. 1736 01:23:23,960 --> 01:23:26,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, right, I can barely afford the one she has. 1737 01:23:27,080 --> 01:23:30,320 Speaker 1: All right? What's the YouTube chat? All right? So I'm 1738 01:23:30,360 --> 01:23:32,720 Speaker 1: just really I'm just gonna read bottom up here. Well, 1739 01:23:32,720 --> 01:23:35,800 Speaker 1: there's a Chiefs fan in there that's spamming this. Oh god, 1740 01:23:35,880 --> 01:23:41,080 Speaker 1: come on, keep jumping on him, guys, if I mean, 1741 01:23:41,280 --> 01:23:44,320 Speaker 1: I'll rephrase this question a little bit. If Matthew Judon 1742 01:23:44,479 --> 01:23:47,559 Speaker 1: does get traded before the season, who takes over that role. 1743 01:23:48,960 --> 01:23:50,600 Speaker 3: Well, we talked about him a little bit earlier. I 1744 01:23:50,800 --> 01:23:53,240 Speaker 3: would assume it's probably Kean White. I would see the 1745 01:23:53,240 --> 01:23:57,120 Speaker 3: most of those opportunities. But maybe they viewed that josh 1746 01:23:57,240 --> 01:24:01,559 Speaker 3: U J Joshua you J. Can take on a little 1747 01:24:01,600 --> 01:24:04,679 Speaker 3: bit more of an increased workload if they do change 1748 01:24:04,720 --> 01:24:07,720 Speaker 3: the mechanics of how they do things up front, if 1749 01:24:07,760 --> 01:24:11,320 Speaker 3: they're more aggressive, if they're more four down, maybe he 1750 01:24:11,400 --> 01:24:14,720 Speaker 3: has that ability where we're not necessarily as worried about 1751 01:24:14,760 --> 01:24:16,880 Speaker 3: him setting the edge against the run, and he can 1752 01:24:16,920 --> 01:24:19,640 Speaker 3: take on a bigger role in a contract year, you know, 1753 01:24:19,800 --> 01:24:22,519 Speaker 3: signing that one year bet on me deal. I'm sure 1754 01:24:22,560 --> 01:24:25,680 Speaker 3: JOSHUAUJ would be up for that. So maybe that that 1755 01:24:25,760 --> 01:24:28,600 Speaker 3: potentially could be there. But if they trade Judean, I 1756 01:24:28,600 --> 01:24:31,439 Speaker 3: would think that the guy they want to emerge from 1757 01:24:31,520 --> 01:24:33,920 Speaker 3: the rough there would would be Kean White. 1758 01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:36,400 Speaker 1: All right, Do you think J. C. Jackson is still 1759 01:24:36,400 --> 01:24:39,120 Speaker 1: in the mix for the Patriots? No? I do not, 1760 01:24:39,479 --> 01:24:41,880 Speaker 1: because that was the report initially was that he might 1761 01:24:41,920 --> 01:24:43,920 Speaker 1: be back. I think I'm with you I think these 1762 01:24:43,960 --> 01:24:48,799 Speaker 1: young guys starting to emerge just they have the bodies. 1763 01:24:48,880 --> 01:24:51,479 Speaker 1: They have the bodies, They're gonna move on from one 1764 01:24:51,520 --> 01:24:55,479 Speaker 1: or two NFL caliber players at that position. Yeah, I 1765 01:24:55,479 --> 01:24:58,000 Speaker 1: don't I don't think they need I don't think they 1766 01:24:58,000 --> 01:25:01,120 Speaker 1: need to go do the J. C. Jackson experiment again. Yep. 1767 01:25:01,880 --> 01:25:04,920 Speaker 1: Somebody asked him, we can get a Chad Ryland minute. Sure. 1768 01:25:05,080 --> 01:25:07,880 Speaker 1: I mean, nothing's changed, Like, I still would like to 1769 01:25:07,880 --> 01:25:10,320 Speaker 1: see them bring in another kicker. These UFL guys are 1770 01:25:10,360 --> 01:25:13,240 Speaker 1: still out there. They'll probably sign closer to camp. I 1771 01:25:13,720 --> 01:25:16,000 Speaker 1: still believe there's a good chance the Patriots Week one 1772 01:25:16,080 --> 01:25:18,519 Speaker 1: kickers not currently on the roster. There's not gonna be 1773 01:25:18,600 --> 01:25:21,200 Speaker 1: unless they signed somebody. There's not gonna be updates there 1774 01:25:21,280 --> 01:25:24,920 Speaker 1: until they start kicking football's at the end of the month. Yep, agreed. 1775 01:25:25,160 --> 01:25:28,840 Speaker 1: So that's that's that's a thirty seconds, which is fine. Yeah, 1776 01:25:31,439 --> 01:25:35,200 Speaker 1: let's see here. Uh, somebody said I look like Atticus Schaeffer. 1777 01:25:35,240 --> 01:25:36,519 Speaker 1: I don't know who that is. I don't know if 1778 01:25:36,520 --> 01:25:41,040 Speaker 1: I should be upset about that. Uh sorry, I'm scrolling 1779 01:25:41,040 --> 01:25:44,800 Speaker 1: through here. Uh what else do we got? I mean, 1780 01:25:44,800 --> 01:25:46,920 Speaker 1: that's more like a all right trivia question? How many 1781 01:25:46,920 --> 01:25:48,800 Speaker 1: games to perset win for the Oh wait, what how 1782 01:25:48,800 --> 01:25:51,280 Speaker 1: many games tot win for the Colts last year? None? 1783 01:25:51,320 --> 01:25:56,000 Speaker 1: He wasn't there. If the line is as bad as 1784 01:25:56,040 --> 01:25:58,000 Speaker 1: it was last year, would you rule out sitting Drake 1785 01:25:58,000 --> 01:25:59,360 Speaker 1: May for the entire season. 1786 01:26:00,640 --> 01:26:02,280 Speaker 3: The line was as bad as it was last year, 1787 01:26:02,320 --> 01:26:06,400 Speaker 3: when I rule it out, yes, I would rule it out. 1788 01:26:06,600 --> 01:26:09,240 Speaker 3: But that's gonna be unpopular, you know. I see the 1789 01:26:09,280 --> 01:26:13,400 Speaker 3: logic and probably start sitting him the entire year. At 1790 01:26:13,400 --> 01:26:17,880 Speaker 3: that point, I just really feel I'm so confident in 1791 01:26:17,880 --> 01:26:22,439 Speaker 3: his ability and I want to stress this and you 1792 01:26:22,479 --> 01:26:25,960 Speaker 3: can vouch here. I was a Drake May guy before 1793 01:26:25,960 --> 01:26:28,040 Speaker 3: the Patriots drafted him. Yes, Like, I don't want people 1794 01:26:28,080 --> 01:26:30,880 Speaker 3: to this to come off like I now believe in 1795 01:26:30,920 --> 01:26:31,719 Speaker 3: him even more. 1796 01:26:31,560 --> 01:26:34,400 Speaker 1: Because you Patriot when you watched Josh Downs for last 1797 01:26:34,479 --> 01:26:36,280 Speaker 1: year's draft, Yeah, you're excited about Drake May. 1798 01:26:37,240 --> 01:26:39,840 Speaker 3: I just am a real believer in Drake May's talent 1799 01:26:40,320 --> 01:26:43,280 Speaker 3: that it would be it would be a bummer just 1800 01:26:43,400 --> 01:26:45,920 Speaker 3: have to sit him the entire year because the things 1801 01:26:45,920 --> 01:26:48,240 Speaker 3: out of his control. If he's behind the scenes, if 1802 01:26:48,240 --> 01:26:50,400 Speaker 3: he's not ready, that's a totally different story. I just 1803 01:26:50,400 --> 01:26:52,479 Speaker 3: don't think that's gonna be the story. The story is 1804 01:26:52,520 --> 01:26:56,559 Speaker 3: gonna be the line stinks. We're still trying to figure 1805 01:26:56,560 --> 01:26:59,720 Speaker 3: this whole thing out. Throwing a rookie quarterback behind a 1806 01:26:59,760 --> 01:27:02,320 Speaker 3: back line is a death sentence. Let's not do it. 1807 01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:04,600 Speaker 3: I don't think the story is gonna be related to 1808 01:27:04,640 --> 01:27:06,240 Speaker 3: Drake May's talent, and I think it would be a 1809 01:27:06,240 --> 01:27:08,240 Speaker 3: bummer that they have to sit him the whole year. 1810 01:27:08,240 --> 01:27:10,080 Speaker 1: But I see the logic. I'd be very surprised if 1811 01:27:10,080 --> 01:27:12,400 Speaker 1: he doesn't play all year. I could the line be 1812 01:27:12,439 --> 01:27:14,120 Speaker 1: as bad as last year, yes, and could it delay 1813 01:27:14,160 --> 01:27:16,160 Speaker 1: the process, absolutely, But I think at a certain point 1814 01:27:16,200 --> 01:27:17,799 Speaker 1: they're gonna want to get him on the field because 1815 01:27:17,960 --> 01:27:19,479 Speaker 1: you want to know what you're working with going into 1816 01:27:19,520 --> 01:27:21,360 Speaker 1: next offseason at the very least. All right kind of 1817 01:27:21,360 --> 01:27:25,200 Speaker 1: related Well, I'll clean this one up again, but basically, 1818 01:27:25,760 --> 01:27:28,599 Speaker 1: what are the chances three or more quarterbacks start games 1819 01:27:28,600 --> 01:27:30,280 Speaker 1: for the Patriots this year? We think it's gonna be two. 1820 01:27:30,800 --> 01:27:32,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I feel pretty good at it a week two, 1821 01:27:32,840 --> 01:27:34,880 Speaker 1: So two and a half quarterbacks to start games for 1822 01:27:34,960 --> 01:27:37,240 Speaker 1: the Patriots here, evan over under. I'm taking the under. 1823 01:27:37,280 --> 01:27:39,920 Speaker 3: But because the injuries in the league nowadays at that position, 1824 01:27:39,960 --> 01:27:41,439 Speaker 3: it's always possible. 1825 01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:43,479 Speaker 1: Taking the over because of the offensive line and injuries. 1826 01:27:43,560 --> 01:27:45,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, so persecond, and Drake may get hurt. 1827 01:27:45,720 --> 01:27:48,080 Speaker 1: And let me ask you this too, because you and 1828 01:27:48,120 --> 01:27:50,599 Speaker 1: you talked about that that's disaster zone. Well that happens, 1829 01:27:50,880 --> 01:27:53,280 Speaker 1: I won't go quite that far. Yeah, you talked about 1830 01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:55,360 Speaker 1: this earlier. You want them to stick for the to 1831 01:27:55,400 --> 01:27:57,320 Speaker 1: the plan for Drake May, and he may need four 1832 01:27:57,360 --> 01:27:59,080 Speaker 1: or five weeks to get ready. I hear what you're saying. 1833 01:27:59,160 --> 01:28:03,120 Speaker 1: What if Jacoby Brison it gets hurt week one, Zippy, 1834 01:28:04,240 --> 01:28:07,080 Speaker 1: what if he's not here? Would you start Joe Milton? 1835 01:28:08,120 --> 01:28:11,840 Speaker 3: That's that's where it gets dicey, and I honestly feel 1836 01:28:13,280 --> 01:28:16,160 Speaker 3: the top headline, Yeah, is Drake May this summer. 1837 01:28:16,520 --> 01:28:17,559 Speaker 1: No one's disputing that. 1838 01:28:18,240 --> 01:28:22,080 Speaker 3: I'm really interested in Zappi versus Joe Milton, though too, 1839 01:28:22,320 --> 01:28:25,479 Speaker 3: Like I feel like that's almost not as fun, But 1840 01:28:25,520 --> 01:28:26,840 Speaker 3: it's like it's so fun. 1841 01:28:26,680 --> 01:28:30,040 Speaker 1: Sneaky important because of the exact SNAr we're laying out. 1842 01:28:30,080 --> 01:28:32,080 Speaker 1: And the other thing is there's a good chance they 1843 01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:33,799 Speaker 1: look at both of them and say, we'll go find 1844 01:28:34,680 --> 01:28:39,000 Speaker 1: another version of Nathan Rourke or Will Greer or Matt. 1845 01:28:38,240 --> 01:28:40,000 Speaker 3: There's a chance that they look at both of them 1846 01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:42,920 Speaker 3: and say, you guys are going to get through waivers 1847 01:28:42,920 --> 01:28:44,760 Speaker 3: and we're gonna sign you to the practice squad, just 1848 01:28:44,800 --> 01:28:47,040 Speaker 3: like they did with Bailey Zachy last year. 1849 01:28:47,080 --> 01:28:50,800 Speaker 1: So and you'd think a great year last year, they 1850 01:28:50,800 --> 01:28:52,639 Speaker 1: can get him to the practice squad after they did. 1851 01:28:52,680 --> 01:28:55,960 Speaker 1: But yeah, I guess so to the point of say 1852 01:28:56,080 --> 01:28:58,639 Speaker 1: Zappi is not an option, let's say they trade him. Yeah, 1853 01:28:59,600 --> 01:29:02,640 Speaker 1: would you start because if it's Joe Milton, now you 1854 01:29:02,680 --> 01:29:04,439 Speaker 1: have to deal with your starting a different rookie. 1855 01:29:04,520 --> 01:29:06,080 Speaker 3: No, I think you have to. I don't think you 1856 01:29:06,120 --> 01:29:06,479 Speaker 3: can do that. 1857 01:29:06,560 --> 01:29:08,679 Speaker 1: So would you start Drake Mayor would you go sign 1858 01:29:08,880 --> 01:29:11,480 Speaker 1: Nathan rook Nathan roorkh. 1859 01:29:11,160 --> 01:29:13,679 Speaker 3: Maybe go sign who is the guy that started games 1860 01:29:13,720 --> 01:29:14,800 Speaker 3: for the Vikings last year? 1861 01:29:14,800 --> 01:29:17,479 Speaker 1: That started Josh Dobbs. He's gonna make a team, like 1862 01:29:17,680 --> 01:29:20,120 Speaker 1: I know, but I'm just no, You're you're talking about 1863 01:29:20,200 --> 01:29:24,000 Speaker 1: Nathan Rourke, Will Greer, Trace McSorley, throw it on a 1864 01:29:24,080 --> 01:29:27,120 Speaker 1: dime like that kind of guy, that kind of guy. 1865 01:29:27,200 --> 01:29:31,240 Speaker 1: Or do your rush Drake May. Probably I probably rushed 1866 01:29:31,280 --> 01:29:31,720 Speaker 1: Drake May. 1867 01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:33,960 Speaker 3: But you know I already gave my Drake Man, and 1868 01:29:34,120 --> 01:29:36,040 Speaker 3: so I'd probably rush Drake Man at that point. 1869 01:29:36,560 --> 01:29:39,320 Speaker 1: All right, given the coaching staff for the offense is 1870 01:29:39,360 --> 01:29:41,800 Speaker 1: new to the Patriots. How difficult is it for them 1871 01:29:41,800 --> 01:29:43,920 Speaker 1: to gauge the talent on the roster given the poor 1872 01:29:44,040 --> 01:29:47,920 Speaker 1: offensive coaching the last couple of years. It's a fair question, 1873 01:29:50,800 --> 01:29:52,000 Speaker 1: probably to me. 1874 01:29:52,120 --> 01:29:56,760 Speaker 3: I think the hardest part, honestly is the receivers that 1875 01:29:56,800 --> 01:30:00,959 Speaker 3: are already on the team that had such durable quarterback 1876 01:30:01,000 --> 01:30:01,880 Speaker 3: play last year. 1877 01:30:02,439 --> 01:30:03,839 Speaker 1: It's you know, Pop Douglas. 1878 01:30:03,840 --> 01:30:06,160 Speaker 3: You mentioned him earlier that he had a good rookie season, 1879 01:30:06,200 --> 01:30:08,200 Speaker 3: but it was just a good rookie season. It wasn't 1880 01:30:08,200 --> 01:30:13,439 Speaker 3: this crazy season, okay, But injuries aside, his durability aside, 1881 01:30:13,439 --> 01:30:15,080 Speaker 3: which is a big part of the equation with him. 1882 01:30:15,720 --> 01:30:18,640 Speaker 3: Is he a eight hundred yard rookie receiver if he 1883 01:30:18,680 --> 01:30:20,439 Speaker 3: has a quarterback that can actually throw them the ball? 1884 01:30:20,479 --> 01:30:21,040 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? 1885 01:30:21,560 --> 01:30:24,879 Speaker 3: You know, there's differences there. That's where I think the biggest, 1886 01:30:24,960 --> 01:30:28,559 Speaker 3: probably the most difficult part is like blocking is blocking, 1887 01:30:28,680 --> 01:30:30,200 Speaker 3: like you can neither block the guy in front of 1888 01:30:30,200 --> 01:30:32,719 Speaker 3: you or you can't. It doesn't really matter a whole 1889 01:30:32,760 --> 01:30:36,160 Speaker 3: lot who's behind you in terms of evaluating the personnel 1890 01:30:36,200 --> 01:30:39,160 Speaker 3: in that respect, maybe more so for the tackles, just 1891 01:30:39,200 --> 01:30:41,720 Speaker 3: because of the depth of the pocket and mobility and. 1892 01:30:41,640 --> 01:30:42,479 Speaker 1: All that kind of stuff. 1893 01:30:42,479 --> 01:30:45,759 Speaker 3: But I think in general, you can look at film 1894 01:30:45,800 --> 01:30:47,960 Speaker 3: and say, this guy can block people or you can't 1895 01:30:47,960 --> 01:30:52,240 Speaker 3: block people. Now, in terms of receiver, you're sometimes open. 1896 01:30:52,280 --> 01:30:54,760 Speaker 3: When it doesn't look like you're open, you're sometimes you know, 1897 01:30:54,840 --> 01:30:56,920 Speaker 3: if you have a great ball, then there's a play 1898 01:30:56,920 --> 01:30:59,800 Speaker 3: there that be made that might not necessarily be be made. 1899 01:31:00,120 --> 01:31:02,639 Speaker 3: If the quarterback's not aggressive, he's not attacking tight windows, 1900 01:31:02,640 --> 01:31:05,000 Speaker 3: he doesn't have the ability to attack tight windows. And 1901 01:31:05,040 --> 01:31:09,160 Speaker 3: there's also the element of scramble drill, Like if Drake 1902 01:31:09,240 --> 01:31:13,360 Speaker 3: May comes in and he had scrambled drill to the equation, well, 1903 01:31:13,360 --> 01:31:15,200 Speaker 3: now all of a sudden you have a whole different 1904 01:31:15,520 --> 01:31:18,880 Speaker 3: like unlocked yardage capability. 1905 01:31:19,240 --> 01:31:20,800 Speaker 1: Especially for a guy like Pop. 1906 01:31:20,840 --> 01:31:22,800 Speaker 3: I would say, who can you know, get open like 1907 01:31:22,840 --> 01:31:25,559 Speaker 3: a jitter bug and make those you remember in Dallas 1908 01:31:25,560 --> 01:31:28,240 Speaker 3: when he you know, like those types of plays like that, 1909 01:31:28,280 --> 01:31:31,559 Speaker 3: those types of plays exist now in droves if Drake 1910 01:31:31,640 --> 01:31:33,680 Speaker 3: May is your quarterback, where they did it before. So 1911 01:31:33,760 --> 01:31:35,559 Speaker 3: I think for receivers it does matter a lot. 1912 01:31:35,640 --> 01:31:39,240 Speaker 1: I yeah, but I think that's what training camp is for. 1913 01:31:39,560 --> 01:31:41,280 Speaker 1: Like they'll know by the start of the season they'll 1914 01:31:41,360 --> 01:31:43,240 Speaker 1: they'll there's a little bit of catch up there, but 1915 01:31:43,320 --> 01:31:46,320 Speaker 1: it's nothing. I don't think it's any different than any 1916 01:31:46,479 --> 01:31:49,880 Speaker 1: new coaching staff coming in and taking over a team. 1917 01:31:50,520 --> 01:31:52,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Drake May out of this question because 1918 01:31:52,840 --> 01:31:56,240 Speaker 1: obviously he would be your answer. Which Patriots player are 1919 01:31:56,240 --> 01:31:58,400 Speaker 1: you the most excited to watch this year? Not necessarily 1920 01:31:58,560 --> 01:32:00,559 Speaker 1: be the best? Who are you the most to watch 1921 01:32:00,600 --> 01:32:02,200 Speaker 1: the I'm gonna take Drake May out of the equation. 1922 01:32:02,320 --> 01:32:04,200 Speaker 3: We take all the rookies out, because like Polk and 1923 01:32:04,280 --> 01:32:05,519 Speaker 3: Baker probably are. 1924 01:32:05,600 --> 01:32:07,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, all right, we can take the rookies out. 1925 01:32:07,880 --> 01:32:09,960 Speaker 1: I would say Christians I was gonna say the same thing. 1926 01:32:10,080 --> 01:32:12,760 Speaker 3: I'm just really looking forward to seeing him back out there, 1927 01:32:12,800 --> 01:32:16,080 Speaker 3: and also, of course seeing if that month was if 1928 01:32:16,120 --> 01:32:19,599 Speaker 3: he's gonna be that guy forever, like every every game 1929 01:32:19,680 --> 01:32:23,719 Speaker 3: for seventeen weeks or eighteen weeks, then they've they've got 1930 01:32:23,760 --> 01:32:25,040 Speaker 3: an all pro caliber corner. 1931 01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:26,559 Speaker 1: Yeah, he has a chance to turn into a blue 1932 01:32:26,600 --> 01:32:29,120 Speaker 1: chip player. Yeah, and that's what's cool. If you're gonna say, hill, 1933 01:32:29,160 --> 01:32:31,400 Speaker 1: I guess you said no rookies, I'd say, jaem Belle, 1934 01:32:32,120 --> 01:32:35,519 Speaker 1: it is gonna board the c O. I popped Douglas. 1935 01:32:35,560 --> 01:32:37,880 Speaker 1: I guess the easy answer, but like sneaky answer, this 1936 01:32:37,960 --> 01:32:40,280 Speaker 1: is gonna bug the crap out of you.

We were doing zoom shows, skype 1957 01:33:33,000 --> 01:33:36,200 Speaker 1: shows before the pandemic, before it was cool, right, we 1958 01:33:36,200 --> 01:33:38,439 Speaker 1: were doing that way back and see all four remotes 1959 01:33:38,479 --> 01:33:40,840 Speaker 1: were like the thing to do that show. Somewhere it's 1960 01:33:40,960 --> 01:33:41,920 Speaker 1: us breaking down. 1961 01:33:42,120 --> 01:33:46,519 Speaker 3: It is definitely somewhere the twenty eighteen, eighteen or eighteen 1962 01:33:46,560 --> 01:33:46,920 Speaker 3: it was Win. 1963 01:33:47,040 --> 01:33:47,840 Speaker 1: It was Isaiah Win. 1964 01:33:48,040 --> 01:33:50,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was eighteen because I ended up moving back 1965 01:33:50,760 --> 01:33:53,840 Speaker 3: to Boston for the eighteen season, but I wasn't there 1966 01:33:54,200 --> 01:33:57,920 Speaker 3: for the draft training camp. My first training camp was nineteen, 1967 01:33:57,920 --> 01:33:59,639 Speaker 3: even though my first season covering you're. 1968 01:33:59,520 --> 01:34:02,240 Speaker 1: There for party camp in eighteen, very briefly, right the 1969 01:34:02,400 --> 01:34:06,640 Speaker 1: very end, because I mean, yeah, so and then we 1970 01:34:06,680 --> 01:34:11,960 Speaker 1: obviously started together that season, and I don't I don't 1971 01:34:11,960 --> 01:34:13,360 Speaker 1: know I ever told the story on the air. You 1972 01:34:13,400 --> 01:34:16,000 Speaker 1: know this, yes, So, like to the second part of 1973 01:34:16,000 --> 01:34:21,400 Speaker 1: the question. That's why it's so funny, is like I 1974 01:34:21,439 --> 01:34:24,200 Speaker 1: thought going into that year, I was going to be 1975 01:34:24,760 --> 01:34:27,519 Speaker 1: like the guy for that company covering the Patriots, and 1976 01:34:27,560 --> 01:34:29,680 Speaker 1: you were kind of added late. See I don't want 1977 01:34:29,680 --> 01:34:32,280 Speaker 1: to throw people under the bus everything that you were 1978 01:34:32,360 --> 01:34:34,760 Speaker 1: kind of added late, and it kind of hit me 1979 01:34:34,800 --> 01:34:37,040 Speaker 1: as like, oh, I thought this was my job. Now 1980 01:34:37,080 --> 01:34:39,879 Speaker 1: here comes this guy and he's got this Twitter following, 1981 01:34:39,960 --> 01:34:42,920 Speaker 1: he's coming from New York and you know what's going 1982 01:34:42,960 --> 01:34:47,280 Speaker 1: to happen, and then obviously it worked out. But yeah, 1983 01:34:47,479 --> 01:34:49,840 Speaker 1: I feel like we thought you were trying to remember 1984 01:34:49,960 --> 01:34:52,680 Speaker 1: Brady Bleds on me. You remember when James Harrison said 1985 01:34:52,720 --> 01:34:54,640 Speaker 1: that he wanted to hate Tom Brady. And I'm not 1986 01:34:54,640 --> 01:34:55,920 Speaker 1: comparing myself to Tom Brady, but. 1987 01:34:55,880 --> 01:34:57,439 Speaker 3: I'm just saying, you know, it's kind of like one 1988 01:34:57,479 --> 01:35:02,320 Speaker 3: of those situations where I came into it thinking, oh, 1989 01:35:02,439 --> 01:35:04,720 Speaker 3: you know, this is my competition. You came into it 1990 01:35:05,040 --> 01:35:07,880 Speaker 3: obviously it was a weird situation for you as you. 1991 01:35:07,840 --> 01:35:10,200 Speaker 1: Just laid out that old I mean, I I remember 1992 01:35:10,240 --> 01:35:12,400 Speaker 1: going back to that true Bledze line of like I'm 1993 01:35:12,400 --> 01:35:13,920 Speaker 1: excited to compete for my job. 1994 01:35:14,080 --> 01:35:16,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, and then as it turned out like a weekend, 1995 01:35:16,400 --> 01:35:18,840 Speaker 3: we both realized like, oh we could just do this together. 1996 01:35:18,960 --> 01:35:20,920 Speaker 1: Yeah.

Wow, I really 2059 01:37:59,400 --> 01:38:02,600 Speaker 3: think appreciate that. So any thoughts, and we've gotten this 2060 01:38:02,720 --> 01:38:05,080 Speaker 3: question before and I don't have a definitive answer on 2061 01:38:05,120 --> 01:38:07,680 Speaker 3: some of it, but any thoughts on dates for instadium 2062 01:38:07,760 --> 01:38:11,080 Speaker 3: practice and padded practices. I'm flying up from Atlanta ten 2063 01:38:11,120 --> 01:38:13,280 Speaker 3: to one or both of those events. Hope to catch 2064 01:38:13,280 --> 01:38:15,960 Speaker 3: you on the field. Yeah, absolutely, come say hi to 2065 01:38:16,080 --> 01:38:17,599 Speaker 3: us at some point when you're here. 2066 01:38:17,760 --> 01:38:21,280 Speaker 1: So we tried doing the math on this. Yeah, and 2067 01:38:22,800 --> 01:38:26,920 Speaker 1: it's usually the end of that first week, yes, but 2068 01:38:27,040 --> 01:38:30,640 Speaker 1: it's usually on Friday, right, it's usually Friday night, but 2069 01:38:30,920 --> 01:38:34,519 Speaker 1: this year they so it's usually that Friday night and 2070 01:38:34,560 --> 01:38:37,920 Speaker 1: then they're off on Saturday. Yes, this year they practice 2071 01:38:38,040 --> 01:38:42,040 Speaker 1: on Saturday, the twenty seventh, No, the first full week, 2072 01:38:42,080 --> 01:38:45,680 Speaker 1: so this is August, second harvest thirday, So will it 2073 01:38:45,760 --> 01:38:47,840 Speaker 1: still be Friday? Will it still be the last the 2074 01:38:47,920 --> 01:38:49,639 Speaker 1: end of the week. My guess would be if they 2075 01:38:49,640 --> 01:38:51,880 Speaker 1: do it again, we assume they're gonna do it again, 2076 01:38:52,760 --> 01:38:56,920 Speaker 1: would be August second or August third, first fully padded 2077 01:38:56,920 --> 01:38:59,600 Speaker 1: practice again. The rules change every year. I think is 2078 01:38:59,640 --> 01:39:03,280 Speaker 1: Monday the twenty ninth, Yes, that would be the fifth practice. Yes, 2079 01:39:03,280 --> 01:39:06,639 Speaker 1: so they practice Wednesday, Thursday, Friday off, Saturday back Sunday, 2080 01:39:06,680 --> 01:39:07,639 Speaker 1: then pads on Monday. 2081 01:39:07,720 --> 01:39:10,599 Speaker 3: So the thing that always confuses me about so it's 2082 01:39:10,600 --> 01:39:14,360 Speaker 3: a five day ramp up period with one off day 2083 01:39:14,520 --> 01:39:16,720 Speaker 3: with an in the sixth day has to be an 2084 01:39:16,720 --> 01:39:17,160 Speaker 3: off day? 2085 01:39:17,760 --> 01:39:19,719 Speaker 1: Oh, the sixth day has within the first. 2086 01:39:19,600 --> 01:39:21,120 Speaker 3: Six days, you have to have an off day. It 2087 01:39:21,160 --> 01:39:24,599 Speaker 3: doesn't have It could be two in three and an 2088 01:39:24,600 --> 01:39:26,000 Speaker 3: off day. It could be you know, you can kind 2089 01:39:26,000 --> 01:39:26,920 Speaker 3: of do whatever you want. 2090 01:39:26,920 --> 01:39:30,080 Speaker 1: That but Monday, that Monday is the fifth practice. 2091 01:39:30,320 --> 01:39:33,840 Speaker 3: So the part that always confuses me is does veteran 2092 01:39:33,920 --> 01:39:37,639 Speaker 3: report date count as one of the five days? That's Tuesday, right, 2093 01:39:37,680 --> 01:39:40,760 Speaker 3: That's Tuesday, the twenty third. So Tuesday, the twenty third 2094 01:39:40,840 --> 01:39:42,760 Speaker 3: is when everybody has to be in the building. Yeah, 2095 01:39:42,760 --> 01:39:45,080 Speaker 3: they'll do the conditioning test they'll have meetings, but they 2096 01:39:45,120 --> 01:39:48,360 Speaker 3: won't have a fourmal practice. The first day of formal practice, 2097 01:39:48,360 --> 01:39:50,200 Speaker 3: which is open to the public if you want to 2098 01:39:50,200 --> 01:39:53,479 Speaker 3: come by, is July twenty fourth, the first full day 2099 01:39:53,479 --> 01:39:58,840 Speaker 3: of practice. So I believe that that Tuesday, the twenty 2100 01:39:58,880 --> 01:40:02,120 Speaker 3: third is part of the ramp up period, report date, 2101 01:40:02,520 --> 01:40:06,880 Speaker 3: conditioning test, first team meeting, YadA, YadA, YadA, yep. So 2102 01:40:06,920 --> 01:40:09,080 Speaker 3: that means the twenty third, twenty fourth, twenty fifth, and 2103 01:40:09,120 --> 01:40:09,719 Speaker 3: twenty sixth. 2104 01:40:09,920 --> 01:40:12,360 Speaker 1: That's four days off day. 2105 01:40:13,439 --> 01:40:15,320 Speaker 3: There's a chance the twenty eighth could be the first 2106 01:40:15,400 --> 01:40:18,600 Speaker 3: padded practice, if that's the math, but it's gonna be 2107 01:40:18,600 --> 01:40:19,960 Speaker 3: either the twenty eighth or the twenty ninth. 2108 01:40:20,040 --> 01:40:21,439 Speaker 1: Okay, there we go. 2109 01:40:21,560 --> 01:40:25,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the long way of looking at it. The 2110 01:40:25,280 --> 01:40:28,559 Speaker 3: non padded practices are still fun to come to, but 2111 01:40:28,600 --> 01:40:30,920 Speaker 3: it's just it's exactly what we see at Mini camp 2112 01:40:30,920 --> 01:40:34,040 Speaker 3: and OTAs. It's just an extension of that. It's non pads, 2113 01:40:34,080 --> 01:40:36,600 Speaker 3: it's non contact, but you still see a lot of 2114 01:40:36,640 --> 01:40:39,519 Speaker 3: passing in those days because you're not gonna do run 2115 01:40:39,560 --> 01:40:41,920 Speaker 3: game when there's no pads, right, You save that for 2116 01:40:42,000 --> 01:40:44,400 Speaker 3: the pads. So if you want to come and see, 2117 01:40:44,439 --> 01:40:46,479 Speaker 3: like Drake may and Joe Milton spin it then like 2118 01:40:46,560 --> 01:40:49,080 Speaker 3: those days are actually not terrible days to come to 2119 01:40:49,120 --> 01:40:50,519 Speaker 3: because you will see a lot of passing. 2120 01:40:50,960 --> 01:40:53,280 Speaker 1: All right. Somebody in the YouTube chat asked if you're 2121 01:40:53,280 --> 01:40:56,120 Speaker 1: going to have a signing event. If I'm gonna have 2122 01:40:56,120 --> 01:40:58,120 Speaker 1: a signing event, yeah, I was. 2123 01:40:58,080 --> 01:40:59,920 Speaker 3: Not planning on that note. But you can come by 2124 01:41:00,080 --> 01:41:02,719 Speaker 3: and say hello like that. We don't need to sign stuff. 2125 01:41:02,720 --> 01:41:05,200 Speaker 3: People come up to your train of camp. Maybe I 2126 01:41:05,280 --> 01:41:09,240 Speaker 3: signed like a person's cast once, like a kid asked 2127 01:41:09,320 --> 01:41:13,439 Speaker 3: me to sign a cast like he had a broken wrist. 2128 01:41:13,560 --> 01:41:15,440 Speaker 3: You know that type of cast? 2129 01:41:16,040 --> 01:41:18,920 Speaker 1: All right? Wait, was this like Evan Lazzar, the Patriots reporter, 2130 01:41:19,080 --> 01:41:20,840 Speaker 1: Like you were ten, your buddy was ten, he broke 2131 01:41:20,840 --> 01:41:21,160 Speaker 1: his wrist. 2132 01:41:21,160 --> 01:41:24,200 Speaker 3: No, no, Evan Lazzar like Patriots are even though I 2133 01:41:24,240 --> 01:41:27,040 Speaker 3: just pat that, I just did that. Yeah, it actually 2134 01:41:27,080 --> 01:41:32,519 Speaker 3: happened in Germany. Oh okay, yeah yeah, uh so, uh Ronky, 2135 01:41:32,680 --> 01:41:34,800 Speaker 3: I think I'm saying that right. Hope, I am from 2136 01:41:34,880 --> 01:41:38,559 Speaker 3: Indianapolis asks. I've heard you guys and many others refer 2137 01:41:38,680 --> 01:41:41,439 Speaker 3: to the way Javon Baker moves in practice and how 2138 01:41:41,479 --> 01:41:44,680 Speaker 3: he is noticeably explosive. I was just wanting to know 2139 01:41:44,760 --> 01:41:47,600 Speaker 3: if it seems significantly more explosive than the other receivers 2140 01:41:47,600 --> 01:41:50,439 Speaker 3: we currently have on the roster and what role we 2141 01:41:50,560 --> 01:41:56,000 Speaker 3: envisioned him playing. So is it noticeably above the other 2142 01:41:56,080 --> 01:41:59,320 Speaker 3: receivers on the roster. I would say it's in. It's 2143 01:41:59,479 --> 01:42:01,880 Speaker 3: like popped up glass. Is also a very explosive mover, 2144 01:42:02,040 --> 01:42:04,600 Speaker 3: different kinds of explosive, but yeah, different kind of explosive 2145 01:42:04,840 --> 01:42:07,880 Speaker 3: in terms of the body types that are more apt 2146 01:42:07,880 --> 01:42:10,760 Speaker 3: to you know, compare to Javon Baker, I'd say that 2147 01:42:10,800 --> 01:42:13,879 Speaker 3: he does move a little bit more, a little bit differently, 2148 01:42:13,920 --> 01:42:16,240 Speaker 3: a little more twitchy. You know, he's got that ability 2149 01:42:16,280 --> 01:42:19,400 Speaker 3: to just kind of explode out of cuts and you know, 2150 01:42:19,479 --> 01:42:22,439 Speaker 3: really just use that second gear. I think that was 2151 01:42:22,479 --> 01:42:24,200 Speaker 3: the thing that stood out to me the most with 2152 01:42:24,280 --> 01:42:27,960 Speaker 3: him is not necessarily that he's explosive off the line 2153 01:42:27,960 --> 01:42:32,040 Speaker 3: of scrimmage at any exceptional rate. He has a nice 2154 01:42:32,439 --> 01:42:35,120 Speaker 3: like second gear where he can find either through the 2155 01:42:35,120 --> 01:42:37,160 Speaker 3: break point at the top of the route or down 2156 01:42:37,160 --> 01:42:39,280 Speaker 3: the field, like when the ball's in the air and 2157 01:42:39,400 --> 01:42:42,960 Speaker 3: he's tracking it. He all he builds speed as he 2158 01:42:43,000 --> 01:42:46,439 Speaker 3: progresses down the field instead of like sputtering out as 2159 01:42:46,439 --> 01:42:48,519 Speaker 3: he goes down the field. But I don't necessarily look 2160 01:42:48,560 --> 01:42:51,439 Speaker 3: at him yet as like somebody who was like super 2161 01:42:51,439 --> 01:42:53,439 Speaker 3: explosive off the line, if that makes sense. 2162 01:42:53,520 --> 01:42:56,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he's more explosive, like vertically, like his 2163 01:42:56,200 --> 01:42:58,960 Speaker 1: ability to go up and get the football and you know, 2164 01:42:59,560 --> 01:43:03,600 Speaker 1: run through contact, things like that role. I think he 2165 01:43:03,680 --> 01:43:05,720 Speaker 1: They're just gonna well, it's a new offense, so I 2166 01:43:05,720 --> 01:43:08,160 Speaker 1: guess it's kind of tough to it's apples and oranges. 2167 01:43:08,200 --> 01:43:13,160 Speaker 1: But like basically DeVante Parker like he should be an X, right, 2168 01:43:13,200 --> 01:43:15,120 Speaker 1: he's gonna be their ex He's gonna be their their 2169 01:43:15,200 --> 01:43:17,720 Speaker 1: jump ball red zone. I don't think we talk enough 2170 01:43:17,760 --> 01:43:20,520 Speaker 1: about him maybe in the red zone as we should. Yeah, 2171 01:43:20,560 --> 01:43:24,040 Speaker 1: but that kind of contested catch receiver. I think that's 2172 01:43:24,080 --> 01:43:27,360 Speaker 1: his role. Okay, how do you think this is from 2173 01:43:27,479 --> 01:43:29,360 Speaker 1: Ben in the UK? I didn't. 2174 01:43:30,600 --> 01:43:34,720 Speaker 3: This is actually it's a Shutters Yeah, you know Claire Claire, Yeah, 2175 01:43:34,760 --> 01:43:40,400 Speaker 3: Claire perspective the podcast. This is Chutters is their sidekick. Yeah. 2176 01:43:40,439 --> 01:43:42,640 Speaker 3: How do you think may should be given time in 2177 01:43:42,720 --> 01:43:45,280 Speaker 3: preseason games first drive with the ones or Besett should 2178 01:43:45,280 --> 01:43:45,880 Speaker 3: get the first look? 2179 01:43:46,080 --> 01:43:48,040 Speaker 1: Is a really good question. I did this on a podcast, 2180 01:43:48,080 --> 01:43:49,680 Speaker 1: all right, should make it a larger share of the 2181 01:43:49,720 --> 01:43:51,520 Speaker 1: reps to aid his development. 2182 01:43:51,640 --> 01:43:53,799 Speaker 3: So if you remember back to the Mac Jones summer, 2183 01:43:54,040 --> 01:43:56,120 Speaker 3: which is all I have to compare it to, really, 2184 01:43:57,200 --> 01:44:00,519 Speaker 3: Cam Newton started games in the preseason and then Mac 2185 01:44:00,560 --> 01:44:04,439 Speaker 3: would run like two quarters, you know, just Mac. So 2186 01:44:04,640 --> 01:44:07,120 Speaker 3: if they follow that script, then it would be Jacoby 2187 01:44:07,120 --> 01:44:09,760 Speaker 3: Brissett would get the ones and get the first quarter, right, 2188 01:44:09,840 --> 01:44:12,000 Speaker 3: then maybe you see Drake May for the whole second 2189 01:44:12,000 --> 01:44:14,639 Speaker 3: and third quarter, and then they maybe give Joe Milton 2190 01:44:14,680 --> 01:44:16,040 Speaker 3: the fourth quarter, So something like that. 2191 01:44:16,720 --> 01:44:19,240 Speaker 1: This is where there's a couple of wild cards here. 2192 01:44:19,320 --> 01:44:21,240 Speaker 1: One new coaching staff, we don't know how they're gonna 2193 01:44:21,240 --> 01:44:24,160 Speaker 1: manage it. Two is Bailey's happy here for the preseason 2194 01:44:24,600 --> 01:44:27,599 Speaker 1: because I don't think do they care to give him reps. 2195 01:44:27,760 --> 01:44:30,320 Speaker 1: So again, I did this on a podcast couple weeks ago. 2196 01:44:31,080 --> 01:44:36,760 Speaker 1: You have twelve quarters of preseason football, right, three games, 2197 01:44:37,000 --> 01:44:39,160 Speaker 1: twelve quarters, And I know, I don't know why I'm 2198 01:44:39,160 --> 01:44:42,240 Speaker 1: doing so many over unders today. Six and a half 2199 01:44:42,439 --> 01:44:44,400 Speaker 1: Drake May six and a half quarters of football? We 2200 01:44:44,439 --> 01:44:44,760 Speaker 1: see hot. 2201 01:44:44,760 --> 01:44:47,160 Speaker 3: I am so meaning he plays more than just a 2202 01:44:47,240 --> 01:44:50,679 Speaker 3: half or two quarters on whatever that I would say, 2203 01:44:52,000 --> 01:44:55,040 Speaker 3: I'm gonna say over because I think there's a chance 2204 01:44:55,080 --> 01:44:57,760 Speaker 3: that they might want to play him into the fourth 2205 01:44:57,880 --> 01:45:01,760 Speaker 3: quarter just to see that extended look at him and maybe, 2206 01:45:01,840 --> 01:45:04,160 Speaker 3: you know, work on some things and and stuff like that. 2207 01:45:04,240 --> 01:45:06,920 Speaker 1: I go the other way. I wonder if I know, 2208 01:45:07,000 --> 01:45:09,599 Speaker 1: I go over, but for a different reason. Okay, I 2209 01:45:09,640 --> 01:45:12,439 Speaker 1: wonder if Jacoby Brissette plays in all three games and 2210 01:45:12,520 --> 01:45:14,880 Speaker 1: he gets the start of just he gets the game right, 2211 01:45:14,880 --> 01:45:18,040 Speaker 1: the veteran treatment, even the what is it? Mac Jones 2212 01:45:18,080 --> 01:45:20,680 Speaker 1: last year only started one game? Yeah, right, he only 2213 01:45:20,680 --> 01:45:21,960 Speaker 1: played in one game? Was that first game? 2214 01:45:21,960 --> 01:45:24,519 Speaker 3: Nobody played in the in the Tenant Tennessee game, and 2215 01:45:24,640 --> 01:45:27,040 Speaker 3: it was the third one, right, yes, yeah, third one 2216 01:45:27,120 --> 01:45:30,960 Speaker 3: Mac played. The Green Bay game was up and down. Yeah, 2217 01:45:31,000 --> 01:45:34,160 Speaker 3: and then the Titans game everybody's. 2218 01:45:33,640 --> 01:45:36,280 Speaker 1: Said, right, and then the first game Mac didn't play either. Yeah, 2219 01:45:36,320 --> 01:45:40,160 Speaker 1: so you know, just Jacoby again, new coaching staff, knew everything. 2220 01:45:40,200 --> 01:45:46,479 Speaker 1: Who knows? But what if? Week here's one potential timeline yep. 2221 01:45:46,840 --> 01:45:52,720 Speaker 1: Week one, Quarter one, Bailey's happy, second quarter. Third, we're 2222 01:45:52,760 --> 01:45:56,040 Speaker 1: talking about preseason, Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, second quarter, third quarter, 2223 01:45:56,120 --> 01:46:00,719 Speaker 1: Drake May, fourth quarter, Joe Milton. Yeah. Week two, Kobe Brissette, 2224 01:46:01,479 --> 01:46:05,800 Speaker 1: Drake May, Drake made Joe Milton. Week three, Drake May 2225 01:46:05,920 --> 01:46:07,760 Speaker 1: Drake May, Joe Milton, Joe Milton. 2226 01:46:08,040 --> 01:46:12,840 Speaker 3: So I was the only I that's probably I think 2227 01:46:12,920 --> 01:46:13,800 Speaker 3: that makes a lot of sense. 2228 01:46:14,240 --> 01:46:17,880 Speaker 1: Or actually, sorry, let me flip that Jacoby starts the 2229 01:46:17,880 --> 01:46:22,639 Speaker 1: first game because part of the reason if they're gonna 2230 01:46:23,200 --> 01:46:26,360 Speaker 1: sit Jacoby for a preseason game, it makes the most 2231 01:46:26,360 --> 01:46:30,240 Speaker 1: sense that it's that Eagles game because that's he's had 2232 01:46:30,240 --> 01:46:34,120 Speaker 1: the joint practice against. But the idea be basically, three 2233 01:46:34,120 --> 01:46:36,720 Speaker 1: different quarterbacks start all three different preseason games, and Drake 2234 01:46:36,760 --> 01:46:38,080 Speaker 1: May's just playing in the middle of all of them. 2235 01:46:38,120 --> 01:46:41,960 Speaker 3: The only the only, like, the only possible thing would 2236 01:46:41,960 --> 01:46:44,160 Speaker 3: be if they're trying to showcase Bailey's app. 2237 01:46:44,400 --> 01:46:46,720 Speaker 1: So that that's a factor here, and. 2238 01:46:47,240 --> 01:46:52,200 Speaker 3: Like Jacoby Brissett right preseason type game, Well, I don't 2239 01:46:52,200 --> 01:46:54,240 Speaker 3: have the fourth preseason game now as. 2240 01:46:54,840 --> 01:46:57,080 Speaker 1: As and this is the year they miss it. As 2241 01:46:57,160 --> 01:47:00,639 Speaker 1: much as this would suck, I don't think that there's 2242 01:47:00,640 --> 01:47:02,839 Speaker 1: a possibility that Joe Milton doesn't play in the preseason 2243 01:47:03,400 --> 01:47:06,080 Speaker 1: just to hide it. No, just because they want to 2244 01:47:06,120 --> 01:47:08,720 Speaker 1: give We saw it in the spring. I think there's 2245 01:47:08,720 --> 01:47:12,320 Speaker 1: a chance that they a chance he's making it to 2246 01:47:12,400 --> 01:47:13,720 Speaker 1: roster cuts. Calm down, he's making it. 2247 01:47:14,120 --> 01:47:16,200 Speaker 3: No, no, no, No, that's not where I'm going. I think 2248 01:47:16,240 --> 01:47:23,000 Speaker 3: there's a chance that they hide the Bazuka from the fans. 2249 01:47:23,240 --> 01:47:27,160 Speaker 1: Ah people know people know, oh, from the fans or 2250 01:47:27,160 --> 01:47:28,200 Speaker 1: from other teams, hang. 2251 01:47:28,080 --> 01:47:32,160 Speaker 3: On from the masses. I shouldn't say just the fans, 2252 01:47:32,640 --> 01:47:36,400 Speaker 3: your station, the masses. I because in order to see 2253 01:47:36,479 --> 01:47:39,640 Speaker 3: Joe Milton, yeah, and to see the Bazuka, now you 2254 01:47:39,720 --> 01:47:43,240 Speaker 3: need to go to training camp and your show, your 2255 01:47:43,280 --> 01:47:45,200 Speaker 3: station needs to do their shows down there, which they 2256 01:47:45,240 --> 01:47:47,679 Speaker 3: will I'm sure, but now you have to like actually 2257 01:47:47,720 --> 01:47:48,960 Speaker 3: really want to make this sense. 2258 01:47:49,000 --> 01:47:51,320 Speaker 1: So you're using Joe Milton just for marketing essentially, I 2259 01:47:52,040 --> 01:47:53,280 Speaker 1: don't know, no, no, no, no, no. 2260 01:47:54,120 --> 01:47:57,640 Speaker 3: I'm saying that if you put it out there on 2261 01:47:57,720 --> 01:48:00,360 Speaker 3: a TV broadcast for the whole world to see, and 2262 01:48:00,400 --> 01:48:04,080 Speaker 3: he has a out of body experience and the preseason 2263 01:48:04,160 --> 01:48:07,200 Speaker 3: could happen, the hype is going to go like this. 2264 01:48:07,880 --> 01:48:11,760 Speaker 1: I know, I you know. I was back back at 2265 01:48:11,760 --> 01:48:12,720 Speaker 1: the draft. I was like this. 2266 01:48:13,320 --> 01:48:16,800 Speaker 3: I am in favor of putting every taking a bucket 2267 01:48:16,840 --> 01:48:19,679 Speaker 3: of water ye on the Joe Milton hype and dumping 2268 01:48:19,720 --> 01:48:21,320 Speaker 3: it as much as I possibly can. 2269 01:48:21,479 --> 01:48:23,280 Speaker 1: You've heard me say this since the Senior Bowl. What 2270 01:48:23,400 --> 01:48:25,960 Speaker 1: is the first thing I told you about Joe Milton. 2271 01:48:26,800 --> 01:48:29,160 Speaker 1: He is going to have the most exciting free season 2272 01:48:29,160 --> 01:48:31,600 Speaker 1: in NFL history. I would like to avoid that. I 2273 01:48:32,000 --> 01:48:35,400 Speaker 1: understand that. I think if he doesn't play, it's because they, 2274 01:48:35,600 --> 01:48:37,400 Speaker 1: like we saw in the spring, they just prioritize the 2275 01:48:37,439 --> 01:48:40,000 Speaker 1: other reps. Jacoby Brissett's got to get ready for the 2276 01:48:40,000 --> 01:48:42,800 Speaker 1: start of the season, obviously, and I really, if I'm 2277 01:48:42,880 --> 01:48:45,920 Speaker 1: ranking them in order of importance, Drake May's got to 2278 01:48:45,960 --> 01:48:48,599 Speaker 1: get you know, you need that for his development. Jacoby 2279 01:48:48,600 --> 01:48:50,479 Speaker 1: Brissett's got to get ready for the start of the season. 2280 01:48:50,840 --> 01:48:52,439 Speaker 1: And then, like you mentioned, if they are going to 2281 01:48:52,479 --> 01:48:56,080 Speaker 1: showcase Bailey's appy, I think that takes precedent, probably would 2282 01:48:56,120 --> 01:48:59,400 Speaker 1: take president over Joe Milton if they move Bailey's appy. 2283 01:48:59,800 --> 01:49:01,280 Speaker 1: I do think we see a lot of Joe Milton 2284 01:49:01,320 --> 01:49:03,479 Speaker 1: in the preseason in games. I'm sorry, I think we do. 2285 01:49:04,000 --> 01:49:04,720 Speaker 1: And it's going to be. 2286 01:49:05,360 --> 01:49:07,880 Speaker 3: He's gonna have the Malik Cunningham drive against the Houston 2287 01:49:07,920 --> 01:49:11,040 Speaker 3: Texans and we're gonna hear about it all year. Remember 2288 01:49:11,080 --> 01:49:12,719 Speaker 3: that drive in the fourth quarter? 2289 01:49:12,880 --> 01:49:16,280 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, remember the throw? There was an incomplete throw 2290 01:49:16,320 --> 01:49:17,280 Speaker 1: that everybody. 2291 01:49:16,960 --> 01:49:19,280 Speaker 3: Kept going exact is on a bootleg right. 2292 01:49:19,400 --> 01:49:22,000 Speaker 1: I think Joe Milton's and let me be clear, Joe 2293 01:49:22,000 --> 01:49:24,000 Speaker 1: Milton is better than Elie cunning him. Yeah, I agree 2294 01:49:24,000 --> 01:49:28,000 Speaker 1: with that, but I if they're hiding him for the narrative, 2295 01:49:28,080 --> 01:49:31,280 Speaker 1: that worries me about what they think of Drake May. 2296 01:49:33,160 --> 01:49:37,200 Speaker 3: I kind of had a feeling in the spring. We 2297 01:49:37,240 --> 01:49:38,760 Speaker 3: did not see a whole lot of reps for Joe 2298 01:49:38,760 --> 01:49:39,559 Speaker 3: Milton in the spring. 2299 01:49:39,760 --> 01:49:43,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I don't know, but we didn't see a 2300 01:49:43,320 --> 01:49:44,800 Speaker 1: whole lot of reps for Bailey's Appy either. 2301 01:49:45,120 --> 01:49:47,519 Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's a different situation. Joe Milton's a rookie, 2302 01:49:47,840 --> 01:49:50,479 Speaker 3: like you're trying to develop the guy. You clearly see 2303 01:49:50,520 --> 01:49:52,200 Speaker 3: something in them to draft. I think they have two 2304 01:49:52,280 --> 01:49:55,200 Speaker 3: quarterbacks that they just a little bit. 2305 01:49:55,240 --> 01:49:57,639 Speaker 1: I think they have two quarterbacks that have immediate needs 2306 01:49:58,160 --> 01:50:01,000 Speaker 1: in terms of jacober Sec getting read and Drake May's development, 2307 01:50:01,920 --> 01:50:04,160 Speaker 1: and that's where the reps are to go around. I 2308 01:50:04,160 --> 01:50:04,800 Speaker 1: think Joe Milton. 2309 01:50:04,880 --> 01:50:07,960 Speaker 3: There is there a chance, though, and this is total 2310 01:50:08,680 --> 01:50:13,639 Speaker 3: tinfoil hat, that behind closed doors in the spring, Joe 2311 01:50:13,640 --> 01:50:16,360 Speaker 3: Milton was seeing a ton more reps than in the 2312 01:50:16,400 --> 01:50:17,640 Speaker 3: practices that were open to us. 2313 01:50:17,720 --> 01:50:19,479 Speaker 1: Because I think there's a chance that that was the case. 2314 01:50:20,680 --> 01:50:24,040 Speaker 1: I guess maybe I did that that. But if that's 2315 01:50:24,040 --> 01:50:26,280 Speaker 1: the case, one that worries me what they think about 2316 01:50:26,400 --> 01:50:30,080 Speaker 1: Drake may that he can't handle that. It also kind 2317 01:50:30,080 --> 01:50:33,200 Speaker 1: of excites me about Joe Milton because what's he doing 2318 01:50:33,240 --> 01:50:36,200 Speaker 1: that that? You know? He it's the man. So Joe 2319 01:50:36,200 --> 01:50:38,800 Speaker 1: Milton is now the Manhattan Project. Yes, we can't let 2320 01:50:38,840 --> 01:50:41,000 Speaker 1: people see this. It's going to change the world. Right, 2321 01:50:41,320 --> 01:50:43,520 Speaker 1: you have to be on the clearance list to see him. 2322 01:50:43,760 --> 01:50:46,800 Speaker 1: You know. I think we have the new nick because 2323 01:50:46,840 --> 01:50:48,920 Speaker 1: Joe Milton doesn't like the nickname Bzuka Joe because the 2324 01:50:48,920 --> 01:50:52,160 Speaker 1: Buzuka can only go so far. He's the Manhattan, Manhattan Project, 2325 01:50:53,000 --> 01:50:56,400 Speaker 1: Joe Milton, the Manhattan Project. That's actually pretty good. Uh 2326 01:50:56,560 --> 01:50:58,200 Speaker 1: all right, let's answer to the last couple of weeks. 2327 01:50:58,240 --> 01:51:03,360 Speaker 1: What's uh uh what's Offenheimer's first name? Again? Oh? God, 2328 01:51:03,439 --> 01:51:06,080 Speaker 1: it's it's it's fancy. I should know that. Yeah, we 2329 01:51:06,160 --> 01:51:10,200 Speaker 1: definitely should know that. J J Robert Oppenheimer. This is 2330 01:51:10,280 --> 01:51:12,120 Speaker 1: Joe Milton Offenheimer. He's up and. 2331 01:51:13,920 --> 01:51:17,920 Speaker 3: Oh no, all right, this is from Paul and uh, 2332 01:51:17,960 --> 01:51:20,640 Speaker 3: this is how he's going to wants to go out 2333 01:51:20,680 --> 01:51:22,840 Speaker 3: to training camp practice and watch a couple of practices, 2334 01:51:23,120 --> 01:51:24,760 Speaker 3: and he asks, how would you tell people to watch 2335 01:51:24,800 --> 01:51:27,800 Speaker 3: practices to understand what's going on? And uh, I what 2336 01:51:27,920 --> 01:51:30,040 Speaker 3: to look for, how to evaluate, et cetera. Paul, it's 2337 01:51:30,080 --> 01:51:32,240 Speaker 3: your lucky day. We actually did we did this. We 2338 01:51:32,280 --> 01:51:34,120 Speaker 3: did this show last year, and I know you're gonna 2339 01:51:34,120 --> 01:51:35,720 Speaker 3: have to scroll back through the shows that we've done 2340 01:51:35,720 --> 01:51:36,280 Speaker 3: in the past year. 2341 01:51:36,439 --> 01:51:37,240 Speaker 1: I also wrote it. 2342 01:51:37,320 --> 01:51:41,720 Speaker 3: Actually, but we did like a f a q of 2343 01:51:41,760 --> 01:51:45,479 Speaker 3: how to watch a training camp practice like media like 2344 01:51:45,560 --> 01:51:47,679 Speaker 3: we do. UH, So you can go ahead and listen 2345 01:51:47,720 --> 01:51:50,360 Speaker 3: to that show. Not everybody liked that show. We got 2346 01:51:50,360 --> 01:51:52,240 Speaker 3: we got some people that were like, what the heck is. 2347 01:51:52,200 --> 01:51:54,559 Speaker 1: The people were really upset by that. Yeah, it was weird. 2348 01:51:54,640 --> 01:51:56,519 Speaker 3: Yeah, but it was one of these off season shows 2349 01:51:56,520 --> 01:51:58,160 Speaker 3: that we, you know, we're looking for something to do 2350 01:51:58,280 --> 01:52:01,160 Speaker 3: and talk about, and I thought it was It came 2351 01:52:01,200 --> 01:52:04,000 Speaker 3: out pretty well. So go back and look like around 2352 01:52:04,000 --> 01:52:06,799 Speaker 3: this time last year, you know, June July dead period 2353 01:52:06,840 --> 01:52:08,960 Speaker 3: of the off season, and you'll you'll find that show 2354 01:52:09,080 --> 01:52:10,400 Speaker 3: and you know you'll answer. 2355 01:52:10,120 --> 01:52:13,479 Speaker 1: Your own question. All right, this is UH. 2356 01:52:14,000 --> 01:52:16,360 Speaker 3: I don't know this is from UH, but UH, good 2357 01:52:16,400 --> 01:52:19,559 Speaker 3: good day guys, love CATCHWY two. My question is two 2358 01:52:19,600 --> 01:52:22,439 Speaker 3: parts what is one of them? One or more things 2359 01:52:22,439 --> 01:52:25,320 Speaker 3: about the Patriots you're ominous about, and what are you 2360 01:52:25,400 --> 01:52:29,599 Speaker 3: optimistic about with this team? So I think the thing 2361 01:52:29,640 --> 01:52:35,040 Speaker 3: that I am ominous about remains the offensive line. Biggest 2362 01:52:35,040 --> 01:52:37,880 Speaker 3: story with the team in terms of what's the big 2363 01:52:37,920 --> 01:52:41,240 Speaker 3: weakness or the big hole, it remains the offensive line. 2364 01:52:41,600 --> 01:52:44,920 Speaker 3: We've talked to seventeen different ways about why. But you know, 2365 01:52:45,000 --> 01:52:47,240 Speaker 3: obviously the tackle situation I think is at the top 2366 01:52:47,280 --> 01:52:49,880 Speaker 3: of that list. I do believe that they will be 2367 01:52:49,880 --> 01:52:53,040 Speaker 3: able to find three solid interior players. It might mean 2368 01:52:53,080 --> 01:52:55,040 Speaker 3: moving on when you back inside, which might not be 2369 01:52:55,080 --> 01:52:57,599 Speaker 3: what they really want to do, but they could find 2370 01:52:57,600 --> 01:53:01,320 Speaker 3: a decent interior between cities. So David Andrews, Mike Onwenu, 2371 01:53:01,880 --> 01:53:04,439 Speaker 3: maybe Cole Strange comes back at some point. They could 2372 01:53:04,439 --> 01:53:07,400 Speaker 3: be okay up the middle. It's the tackles that are 2373 01:53:07,439 --> 01:53:13,160 Speaker 3: scary scary back. Yeah, what am I optimistic about? I'm 2374 01:53:13,200 --> 01:53:16,040 Speaker 3: bullish on the defense. I remain bullish on the defense. 2375 01:53:16,880 --> 01:53:19,040 Speaker 3: I might be in the minority. 2376 01:53:19,040 --> 01:53:19,439 Speaker 1: I don't know. 2377 01:53:19,760 --> 01:53:21,439 Speaker 3: I know there are a lot of people that feel 2378 01:53:21,479 --> 01:53:24,280 Speaker 3: like Belichick is going to be a big loss. Belichick's 2379 01:53:24,439 --> 01:53:28,519 Speaker 3: I should say, Steve Yeah, also fair critique there's a chance. 2380 01:53:28,560 --> 01:53:31,200 Speaker 3: I think early on in the season that DeMarcus Covington 2381 01:53:31,280 --> 01:53:33,639 Speaker 3: still is trying to figure out calling plays in game 2382 01:53:33,680 --> 01:53:35,200 Speaker 3: and all that kind of stuff, And maybe it's not 2383 01:53:35,280 --> 01:53:38,599 Speaker 3: great out of the gate, but I think ultimately their 2384 01:53:38,720 --> 01:53:41,320 Speaker 3: talent will carry them on the defense side of the ball, 2385 01:53:41,880 --> 01:53:44,960 Speaker 3: and I really do believe that that they're going to 2386 01:53:45,000 --> 01:53:45,120 Speaker 3: be a. 2387 01:53:45,160 --> 01:53:47,599 Speaker 1: Very good defense. I would say specifically the secondary. Yeah, 2388 01:53:48,000 --> 01:53:49,920 Speaker 1: very very excited for the secondary, and there's a ton 2389 01:53:49,920 --> 01:53:52,519 Speaker 1: of potential there. It's a young group, it's an athletic group, 2390 01:53:52,560 --> 01:53:56,680 Speaker 1: good size, good speed, good technique. Mike Pellegrino's back. You 2391 01:53:56,720 --> 01:53:58,800 Speaker 1: talk about the loss of the Belichicks, which obviously is 2392 01:53:58,840 --> 01:54:01,360 Speaker 1: not nothing, but I do think it's massive. They got 2393 01:54:01,400 --> 01:54:05,080 Speaker 1: Mike Pelagreno back, underrated coach. I'm really excited to see 2394 01:54:05,120 --> 01:54:08,320 Speaker 1: what the secondary can do. Follow breaking news, Sure got 2395 01:54:08,360 --> 01:54:13,080 Speaker 1: some Patriots breaking news, Oh boy. File to ESPN via 2396 01:54:13,200 --> 01:54:16,960 Speaker 1: Mike Reese and Adam Schefter, Patriots and linebacker Jelani Tavai 2397 01:54:17,080 --> 01:54:20,400 Speaker 1: have agreed on a three year extension maximum value of 2398 01:54:20,400 --> 01:54:23,879 Speaker 1: twenty one million dollars base value of fifteen million dollars 2399 01:54:23,920 --> 01:54:27,519 Speaker 1: per sources. Again, this is from Reese reporting that Jelani 2400 01:54:27,560 --> 01:54:30,080 Speaker 1: Tavai on an extension. So another in house guy that 2401 01:54:30,200 --> 01:54:31,640 Speaker 1: was going to be a free agent at the end 2402 01:54:31,640 --> 01:54:34,120 Speaker 1: of the next this coming up season, it's gonna be 2403 01:54:34,160 --> 01:54:36,360 Speaker 1: a twenty twenty five free agent now signs to a 2404 01:54:36,360 --> 01:54:38,840 Speaker 1: three year deal. I actually love this contract. 2405 01:54:38,920 --> 01:54:41,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, and don't say I love every contract because I 2406 01:54:41,920 --> 01:54:45,280 Speaker 3: killed them for Ramandra Stevenson last year. I actually really 2407 01:54:45,400 --> 01:54:47,640 Speaker 3: liked this contract. I think Jelani Teva is one of 2408 01:54:47,680 --> 01:54:50,440 Speaker 3: the most underrated linebackers in the NFL, whereas a ton 2409 01:54:50,440 --> 01:54:53,920 Speaker 3: of different hats, has really improved his game in space, 2410 01:54:54,160 --> 01:54:57,120 Speaker 3: like he's no longer a liability in coverage. His instincts 2411 01:54:57,120 --> 01:54:59,640 Speaker 3: and his reads are much much better than when they 2412 01:55:00,040 --> 01:55:01,720 Speaker 3: they first got his hand their hands on him. 2413 01:55:02,000 --> 01:55:05,200 Speaker 1: A really still a Belichick. 2414 01:55:04,760 --> 01:55:06,960 Speaker 3: Lunch Paiale guy, in my opinion, you know, a hard 2415 01:55:06,960 --> 01:55:10,120 Speaker 3: hat guy. He's not necessarily somebody that's gonna be eye 2416 01:55:10,120 --> 01:55:13,160 Speaker 3: popping in terms of the production or the splash plays 2417 01:55:13,240 --> 01:55:16,000 Speaker 3: or something like that. But he is a very very 2418 01:55:16,160 --> 01:55:19,920 Speaker 3: very good player, like a solid, rock solid player, and 2419 01:55:19,960 --> 01:55:22,360 Speaker 3: that's good value. Three years, twenty one million. You're not 2420 01:55:22,400 --> 01:55:25,160 Speaker 3: overpaying by any stretch of the imagination. So I think 2421 01:55:25,160 --> 01:55:26,640 Speaker 3: this is a really good deal for the Patriots. 2422 01:55:26,720 --> 01:55:28,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, i'd agree. Again does wear's a lot of hats 2423 01:55:28,960 --> 01:55:32,520 Speaker 1: for him. Good especially a good early down player, which 2424 01:55:32,560 --> 01:55:34,360 Speaker 1: you need, especially if you know, we'll see what happens 2425 01:55:34,400 --> 01:55:37,080 Speaker 1: with Von Godshaw. It's another guy that impacts those downs 2426 01:55:37,920 --> 01:55:39,720 Speaker 1: and a leader, a leader in the locker room, which 2427 01:55:39,760 --> 01:55:41,720 Speaker 1: is you're going through a state of change with the Patriots, 2428 01:55:41,720 --> 01:55:43,960 Speaker 1: are you want to make sure you keep that core intact? 2429 01:55:44,000 --> 01:55:47,440 Speaker 1: So good for him? How old is he? Uh? 2430 01:55:47,480 --> 01:55:51,160 Speaker 3: Well, this is his technically third. 2431 01:55:50,680 --> 01:55:53,440 Speaker 1: Wow, he's only going he's going his age twenty eight. 2432 01:55:53,680 --> 01:55:55,640 Speaker 1: Yeah he thought he was like thirty. Yeah, great contract, 2433 01:55:55,680 --> 01:55:59,120 Speaker 1: good job, really good contract for the Patriots. There and. 2434 01:56:00,760 --> 01:56:03,880 Speaker 3: Again this is why and just to expand on the 2435 01:56:03,880 --> 01:56:05,720 Speaker 3: bullish on the and then we have to wrap on 2436 01:56:05,760 --> 01:56:08,120 Speaker 3: the defense really quickly. This is why I'm bullish on 2437 01:56:08,160 --> 01:56:10,960 Speaker 3: the defense is because not only do they have those 2438 01:56:11,040 --> 01:56:14,640 Speaker 3: high end guys like Christian Barmore, Matthew Judah, Christian Gonzales, 2439 01:56:14,920 --> 01:56:17,400 Speaker 3: potentially maybe Kyle Duggar, you know, I think can be 2440 01:56:17,400 --> 01:56:19,120 Speaker 3: one of the blue chipp or at least a red 2441 01:56:19,200 --> 01:56:22,440 Speaker 3: chip player for them Jabrill Peppers. They also have a 2442 01:56:22,440 --> 01:56:25,400 Speaker 3: bunch of these lunch Pale Belichick guys still, you know 2443 01:56:25,440 --> 01:56:27,120 Speaker 3: those guys that are just gonna come to work every 2444 01:56:27,160 --> 01:56:31,440 Speaker 3: single day and do their jobs. Bentley to Buy God Show, 2445 01:56:31,680 --> 01:56:35,000 Speaker 3: Dietrich Wise, you know, like they they're loaded with those 2446 01:56:35,040 --> 01:56:37,480 Speaker 3: guys as well. So you have top end talent, you 2447 01:56:37,520 --> 01:56:40,200 Speaker 3: have depth, you have that next like middle class layer 2448 01:56:40,240 --> 01:56:42,360 Speaker 3: there too, and then you have some young guys that 2449 01:56:42,360 --> 01:56:44,120 Speaker 3: hopefully are up and coming as well. And we talked 2450 01:56:44,120 --> 01:56:46,480 Speaker 3: about ze Bolden today. You know those types of players. 2451 01:56:46,480 --> 01:56:50,960 Speaker 3: So exciting, exciting contract for the Patriots.
