The world's origion, 3 00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:20,280 Speaker 1: Welcome to Patriot gets unfiltered, and we're at twelve point seven, 4 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 1: and you ended up being right there. Yeah, I was 5 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:24,079 Speaker 1: right on the Why is that the reason why you 6 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 1: brought it up? Yeah, and went all cousin Finney, that 7 00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:27,320 Speaker 1: don't shake you ahead at me. I didn't say it, 8 00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 1: I didn't hit what I said yet had a million interceptions. 9 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 1: He wasn't playing. I have no respect for zone corners. 10 00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:34,280 Speaker 1: Every time they kick off and I hold my breath. 11 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:36,160 Speaker 1: I know they don't kick off offten, but twenty times 12 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:38,880 Speaker 1: they've thrown the ball downfield. Patricia couldn't get the play 13 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,000 Speaker 1: in on the next play, like, we're all so excited. 14 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 1: I think I think had been end of the year. 15 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: We get another play. No, let's let's let's not be 16 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 1: that nice about it, all right, intelligently on the eighty 17 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: three Patriots. How many bud lights deep were you when 18 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 1: you watching that game? He was already nine at that point, 19 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: already had four kids like you. It's a tough way 20 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: to live. Oh yeah, this is we're living it right now, Mike, 21 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 1: I see a stack of papers in front of you 22 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,199 Speaker 1: have in front of you, probably not the amount of 23 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:12,039 Speaker 1: offensive points the Patriots of Oh Fred, Fred, Yes, okay, 24 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: this is Patriot's Unfiltered, fueled by Duncan. All right, welcome 25 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:22,320 Speaker 1: to Patriots Unfiltered. It is Thursday here at Gette Stadium 26 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 1: and Bill Belichick just wrapped up his first press conference 27 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,559 Speaker 1: for this week. There was no availability up until now, 28 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: and of course a lot of the questions, not all, 29 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 1: were centered around, you know, preparing for the bills and 30 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: what a tough spot it is and how it is. 31 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: And I think the theme, you know, there's been different 32 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,279 Speaker 1: themes before we're on to Cincinnati, and I think today's 33 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 1: theme was we're doing the best we can. Yeah, you know, 34 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 1: so probably highlights. Just the news it's on the TV 35 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: right now with good positive update on tomorrow hamlin um 36 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: because he's uh, I don't know what the word is intact, 37 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: I forget exactly what they wrote. He's aware, he's aware, Yeah, 38 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: for his lungs to to continue. Hell, but just good 39 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: news today on his improvement and and hopefully that can 40 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 1: you know, help teams. I guess start to turn the 41 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,360 Speaker 1: page and really think about playing a game in three days. 42 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: We'll see, I guess this afternoon, how that'll come together. Yeah, 43 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: we'll have Evan. I'll be here later and he'll recap. 44 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 1: He was at the press conference, so he'll give a recap. 45 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: But you know, from what we listen to, um, like 46 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: I said, it's you know, we're doing the best we can. 47 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: It's unprecedented. It's unchartered waters um unchartered, correct, waters not chartered, 48 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: And like he said, we're just going through it. Um. 49 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: Nobody asked, you know, has any specific player come to 50 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: you and said I don't feel up to playing or whatever? 51 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: That wasn't asked. Yeah. Um, so, but you know, from 52 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: everything we can gather, the game's on Sunday at one. Yeah. 53 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 1: And there's you know, in addition to the updates on 54 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: on Hamlin that Mike just read, there was a I 55 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 1: think Mike Giardi. I'm not sure if he was the 56 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: first one to report it, but I guess Hamlin's dad 57 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 1: addressed the team in a zoom call, which to me 58 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: is probably the best indication to allow the team to 59 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 1: start the process of moving on moving forward. Yeah, you know, 60 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: I hear a lot of the guys up in Buffalo 61 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: said we needed to hear that. M yeah, I think 62 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: kier Elam had some comments to that effect Freddy, So 63 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: I think Fred's right. I think, you know, it's a 64 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: it's a tough situation. I thought Bill expressed it very 65 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: well several times. Everybody's doing the best they can to 66 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 1: move on to, you know, and not to forget about it, 67 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: not being callous. Just you know, there's a game to 68 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: play and you get back to your job. It's the 69 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: same for everybody, right, this is the kind of the 70 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: news you were hoping if. I mean, of course you 71 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: would want him to completely recover, but just the positive 72 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: developments that you're here. I really think they're on the 73 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 1: road to that. I mean, hopefully I'm not just being 74 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: too overly optimistic, but I think I think he's on 75 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: the way to recovery. I do, yeah, I mean I 76 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: think the big worry I mean, in my uninformed medical opinion, 77 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: which is how long was the out for? So he 78 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: can have brain damage from lack of oxygen to the brain, 79 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: But it sounds like, you know, he's mentally intact, I guess, 80 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,599 Speaker 1: as they said, and squeezing fingers a little bit and 81 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: eyes open, so great news. Just hopefully this is you know, 82 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: team can kind of maybe build on what they did 83 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 1: yesterday and the Bills had to walk through. I think 84 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: they're having a full practice today. Patriots are going to 85 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: practice again here in a little bit. Evan will be 86 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,919 Speaker 1: in out to that. So, yeah, well we'll see. Hopefully, 87 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: hopefully we can have a game. I just I don't 88 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: know how I'm gonna feel coming into the game or like, 89 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,919 Speaker 1: let's get them guys. I know, I know if the 90 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: messages here are different than there. Yeah, I've in Buffalo. 91 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 1: To me, it's very clear. I'm Sean mcno. I'm saying 92 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: the best way we can pay tribute to Damar and 93 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: the best way we can help him is to go 94 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 1: out there and fight like health in his name. He's 95 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,039 Speaker 1: to come to and we're gonna have won a game. 96 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: He's gonna have ten million dollars in his charity all 97 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: for him, and that's the best thing we can do. 98 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: He's in good hands medically. There's nothing we can do there, right, Yeah, 99 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: there's nothing we can do there for him. Let them 100 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: do that. We let us do our part and our 101 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 1: part is you know, doing our job in his name. 102 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 1: And I mean that's gonna be tough to overcome for 103 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: the Patriots, you know, because like, you know, our message 104 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: is different, like ours is. Hey, you know, he's our brother. 105 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 1: It's just kind of the same thing. You know, there's 106 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 1: nothing we can do for him. He's in good hands, 107 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: but we've got a job to do. Let's do it. 108 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: You know, they're not doing it for him, They're doing 109 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 1: it for each other here, you know. So it's a 110 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: little bit different message, but the theme is the same 111 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 1: is you have a job to do. You're a professional, 112 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: you know, let's let's do it. Let's do it. Yeah, 113 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 1: It's just it is. I mean, talked about it yesterday. 114 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: A little weird just having this last game that, I mean, 115 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: the Patriots desperately need to win, and I you know, 116 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 1: I just wonder what where the Bills are gonna be at. 117 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 1: Are they gonna be at the point where let's win 118 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:12,280 Speaker 1: one for DeMar because I mean, I think that they 119 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: will get there, especially by the next week in the playoffs. 120 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: I just don't know if they're if they're mentally able 121 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: to get to that point, maybe they can say it, 122 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 1: but are they gonna play like that or are they 123 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 1: still gonna play kind of like I think they will, 124 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 1: and I you know, like you talk about resting players, 125 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 1: They're not going to rest anybody in this game. You know, 126 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: Like how do you play for DeMar and then oh, josh, 127 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: you're not playing and you're not you're not paying, you know, 128 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: but all you other guys play. Yeah, that doesn't make 129 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: sense to me. You know, they weren't going to rest anybody. Yeah, 130 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 1: the game meet, I mean before this incident, the game 131 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 1: meant a lot to Buffalo. Yeah, but what's the latest one? Well, 132 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 1: that's the other thing, like, like what's going on with that? Like, 133 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: you know, the determination of the result of the Bengals 134 00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 1: Bills game does have you know, ramifications on how much 135 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: this game actually does mean and so far we don't know, 136 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 1: you know, um what they're gonna do with that game, right, 137 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: you know? Right? And there's three all all three of 138 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: those teams are you know, greatly impacted by that Bills, 139 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: Kansas City, the Bills in the Bengals. Yeah, because they 140 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: all can get the number one seed, the number two seed, 141 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: or the number three seed depending on what happens you know, 142 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: both in Week eighteen and whatever happens with that game. Yeah. So, 143 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 1: like I said, like to me, the simplest and most 144 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 1: elegant solution, as long as the Bengals and Bills both agree, 145 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: is that game was a tie and you're gonna live 146 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: with the results after Week eighteen, no matter what, you know, 147 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: and that's it, and the game won't be played. You know. 148 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: But I've heard all these others, I like your fallback 149 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 1: if they don't play the game, Well, I forget what 150 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: my fall back was. No, you you just said that one. 151 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: I like, I mean, I think the simplest thing you 152 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 1: can play the game game. Yeah, I don't think that's 153 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 1: that simple. Actually, yeah, I just think you just push 154 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 1: everything back a week. I mean, oh no, but I mean, like, 155 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: where is it going to be played? Who? What fans 156 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 1: get to go to cint It goes to Cincinnati next week. 157 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: It's like week nineteen, and the fans that had tickets 158 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: just showed to this game. Sure, yeah, I guess you 159 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: could do that. Now if they don't do it, I understand. 160 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: Like it's it's a little bit of a different situation 161 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: because it's the end of the season. So we have 162 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: a week in which there's one game. Yeah, Now, a 163 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 1: lot of people have suggested have that one game along 164 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: with the NFC playoffs, which I really don't understand. But 165 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: that's I've heard. I've heard a lot of I've heard 166 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 1: a lot of scenarios. I've I've heard a lot of suggestions, 167 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: and I don't really Normally I would say a lot 168 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 1: of facacta suggestions. I don't say that this time because 169 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: I don't really think there's anything that's that's right or wrong. 170 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 1: I mean, doing the best week can everybody's coming up 171 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 1: and trying to spit ball with different idea. Yeah, so 172 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 1: I could understand you want to have three NFC playoff 173 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 1: games along with a game that has playoff implications, you 174 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: make something out of next week. I don't really know 175 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: what the benefit of having the AFC and NFC playoffs 176 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: then staggered right then the a FC not going to 177 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: get a week off, so the AFC doesn't get a 178 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: week off of the super Bowl. I'm not sure that that's, 179 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,719 Speaker 1: you know, perfect, but there is no perfect solution now, 180 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 1: so I think he's just I don't make fun of it. 181 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: I mean, everybody has an opinion. I like that they're 182 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: re least slow playing it to see kind of maybe 183 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 1: where things are after Sunday night and then just like 184 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: do the least possible. Like sometimes these things work themselves out. 185 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: How many times you say, well, we got too many 186 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: running backs? And what happens? Fred? Right, you know, someone 187 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: gets hurt, someone's unavailable, and all of a sudden you 188 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: have a perfect amount. So like Monday morning, you might 189 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 1: wake up and you say, this game is really just 190 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: going to determine the two or the three seed, and 191 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 1: you know, let's figure out where it will be played 192 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: if they meet in the playoffs. Right if um, you know, 193 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 1: if Kansas City were to lose, I mean I suppose that, 194 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: you know, it kind of throws a monkey wrench into 195 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: it because now Cincinnati and Buffalo can get the number 196 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: one seed. You know, like to me, you almost have 197 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: to play the game unless like Fred's thing comes to 198 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: fruition and Cincinnati and Buffalo say, we'll forfeit the number 199 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:24,679 Speaker 1: one seed. We don't want to play the game. Will 200 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: fullfit the number one seed if they want to do that. 201 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,320 Speaker 1: No one's gonna argue with their wishes, you know, And 202 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: I think that's isn't that you know, everybody's saying, like, 203 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:34,959 Speaker 1: you know, we'll do whatever. I think Joe Burrow a 204 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: great quote. You're right, you know, we'll do whatever Buffalo wants. Yeah, 205 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 1: and I'm paraphrasing, but just another reason why I love 206 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: that guy. I mean, I thought that spoke like a 207 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 1: perfect tone. You wonder if its owners, like, wait a minute, 208 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: because people aren't really considering. Cincinnati has a lot to 209 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:58,079 Speaker 1: lose here too, because they win two games and they 210 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: can be the number one seed. Right just you know 211 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: they're hot. I mean they were hot coming into this 212 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 1: game before everything happened there. Now they would need Kansas 213 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:10,560 Speaker 1: City to lose to the to the Raiders to the Raiders, 214 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: but I don't think I don't think that's impossible. It's 215 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 1: not out of the question. I don't think that they'll 216 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 1: loose it. But Kansas City has not played great. Not 217 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: that the Raiders have a quarterback right well yeah, Jared 218 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 1: stop that. Yeah, Evan will yell at you. Um So, 219 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 1: A lot's still to be determined. But as Duke said, 220 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 1: the big headline is tomar Hamlin is showing responsiveness. He's 221 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,959 Speaker 1: getting better. YEA long way to go, A long way 222 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: to go. He's still in critical condition, I believe, right, Yeah, 223 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 1: a long way to go. But between it's positive, ye, 224 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,439 Speaker 1: it's it's moving in the right direction. I think he 225 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,719 Speaker 1: just needed to hear something to to be able to, 226 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,959 Speaker 1: you know, mentally tell yourself, he's going to be Okay. 227 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: We need to move on and really focus on what 228 00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 1: this team wants to do, because I mean what I mean, 229 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 1: for the Bills, what better way to honor Damar than 230 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 1: to go out and win the Super Bowl? Kick out, 231 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 1: like I mean, just play use that, you know, And 232 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,319 Speaker 1: I hate like trying to make a person's health into 233 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 1: like a motivational thing. Like you know, it's just a 234 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 1: tr like that. But you got to make the best 235 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: out of it. I mean, I know that's going to 236 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: be the mentality, that's going to be the mindset. It's 237 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: just it's hard, like it it could go either way. 238 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 1: You could. You could sit there and say, you know, 239 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,719 Speaker 1: they had all the right intentions. They you know, they 240 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: had everything in mind. They just couldn't do it. They 241 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: couldn't muster it up, you know. But just you know, 242 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,440 Speaker 1: put yourself in their shoes. What if it was a patriot, 243 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 1: I mean we would all be like, you know, do 244 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 1: it for no I know we would, you know. Yeah, 245 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 1: But then like there's a lot of examples of teams 246 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: using that as motivation and it working and they go 247 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: on and win a title. There's a lot of examples 248 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,719 Speaker 1: where it goes the other way too. Oh. Absolutely, that's 249 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:54,680 Speaker 1: all I'm saying. Yeah, like I if I would, I mean, obviously, 250 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: take the human side of it. If if it worked 251 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:02,439 Speaker 1: every time, these owners would would I mean, stop right, 252 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: You're the only one wholes for injury. Stop um, So 253 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 1: take the human I mean it's impossible, but take the 254 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: human side of this of it. Obviously, there's nobody on 255 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: the planet that that is glad that this happened. Right, 256 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 1: But do you think Buffalo would rather go into this 257 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: game just normal or trying to play it for a 258 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 1: fallen teammate, because, of course just normal? Yeah? Again, but 259 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 1: not because I mean, it's obvious about we don't want 260 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 1: a guy hurt, right, But I'd rather not the motivation 261 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: that a guy's hurt would trying to rally for him. 262 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 1: I'd rather just go into this game because I think 263 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,839 Speaker 1: I'm a better team. Yeah, I don't have anything to 264 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 1: worry about. I don't have to worry about. We all 265 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: in this. So do we get enough preparation time? But 266 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 1: we mentally prepared for this, emotionally were ready to go. 267 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: I would rather not worry about those things if I 268 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 1: were Buffalo. Yeah, specific to Buffalo, though, I mean I 269 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: would I would be a little concerned if I was 270 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:56,439 Speaker 1: the Buffalo team about Josh Allen trying to be the Superman, 271 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: I'd a lot every week. I mean, I'd be a 272 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 1: lot concerned about it. He already does, he already does 273 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: that to an extent, and he's and he's amazing at it, 274 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 1: and you know he's often unstoppable. But you know, there's 275 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: just a level being too pumped up, pushing too hard, 276 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: trying to do too much yourself to like, you know, 277 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: prove that you're playing for this guy, like you know, 278 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 1: he's just one guy that I think he really would 279 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 1: just need to play within yourself. Don't don't God forbid, 280 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: somebody gets hurt in this game. And I don't mean 281 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 1: like like DeMar did, but like just just anything, right, Josh, 282 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: almost somebody's down, and you know, like anything, like everybody's 283 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: gonna hold their breath every time you know, somebody goes down. 284 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: It's well, I mean I said, I mean, I don't 285 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: know if I said on the here yesterday, but I 286 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: mean it's just I have these feelings a lot like 287 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: I mean, it certainly was scary with DeMar Hamlin. The 288 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 1: example I brought up was in twenty twelve when Stephen 289 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: Ridley got laid out by what's his face ruined braking 290 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 1: Bernard Poler. I mean, just a crazy hit. He's fencing, 291 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: you know that after a concussion. I mean, you know, 292 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: it's just these things. These things happen. And even though 293 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 1: that the DeMar ham and was unique and very scary 294 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: and all that, it's you know, I still feel the 295 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: same way when guys get hurt like that, whether it's 296 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: you know, a knee injury, a concussion, all these things 297 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 1: are are are tough to deal with on someone I 298 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: agree with you, Deuce, And I think Bill, in his 299 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: opening comments today referenced going back to I think he 300 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: said ninety seven and I think it was Reggie Brown, 301 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 1: you know, and that that's where it brought him back to, 302 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: and that was a similar kind of injury. Not this injury, 303 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 1: not CPR performed on the field, but that's these are 304 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: what happened. These are the thoughts that come to mind, 305 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: especially a guy like Bill that's been around for so long. 306 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 1: Unfortunately he's seen a lot of these kinds of things. 307 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 1: You know, this might be the worst of all of 308 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 1: those things, but unfortunately it's not the only one. Yeah, 309 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 1: Dennis Bird, Yeah, you know all these guys. Yeah, you know, 310 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 1: I mean even like go back, Freddie Jennumber, you know 311 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 1: for the Patriots when John Stevens ran over, I think 312 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: it was Jeff Fuller, right, and John Stevens was never 313 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: the same, never the same. And John Stevens was the 314 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 1: t Higgins of and the hit. What happened John Stevens 315 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 1: was you know, a big and he lowered his head. 316 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 1: There was helmet to helmet contact and the Niners safety 317 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 1: went down and never and didn't come back up. And 318 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: John John Stevens, even though nothing happened to him physically emotionally, 319 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: he was never the same. He was never the same 320 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: running back after that. Yeah, I remember him. Yeah, it's 321 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 1: one of my when I was growing up. His daughter 322 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: is a professional tennis player. Now, yeah, Sung Stevens. Yeah, 323 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: although estranged, I think, yeah, well is John I'm not 324 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: sure John is still with us? Oh really? Um?

Of course, do the best 344 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 1: you can, and then by tomorrow, you know, maybe maybe 345 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,679 Speaker 1: there's actually Okay, we're we're gonna play this game and 346 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 1: we're locked in and we're ready to go yep, yep. 347 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,439 Speaker 1: So you know, we haven't had got a schedule yet. 348 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:47,240 Speaker 1: You know, for travel or anything. They haven't sent that out. 349 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 1: Usually by now we do have I was going to 350 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: ask you do you usually get it by Thursday? Yeah, 351 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: so I'm sure they were waiting to see what the 352 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: what's going on with Buffalo. Um So to me, the 353 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: indication that everything is one hundred percent is when I 354 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,440 Speaker 1: get that. Yeah, and I haven't gotten it yet. So 355 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 1: I would think by tomorrow morning. I mean, the Bills 356 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 1: were able to do practice today and get through tonight 357 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,120 Speaker 1: and you know, hopefully maybe he has some more good 358 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: signs overnight and you know tomorrow maybe it's uh, you know, 359 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: just just that definity. I think everybody's kind of still 360 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 1: has that doubts McDermott has. Have the Bills had No, 361 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 1: they're going later this after Okay, all right, so we 362 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,199 Speaker 1: haven't really heard from Buffalo yet. No, I think I 363 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 1: think McDermott is four thirty. I saw someone right on Twitter. 364 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, that's Twitter, So that's just 365 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 1: something I don't know. I don't know if it's accurate. 366 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:40,439 Speaker 1: And there's Mike Mike Giardi. Yeah, up in Buffalo, Buffalo, 367 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,639 Speaker 1: he's on He's on the scene. Yeah. Well, that's a 368 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:47,199 Speaker 1: tough gig. Yeah. Yeah, you're also a different place and 369 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: everybody wants to find out the information, and yeah, your 370 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 1: job is to get the information well, not being intrusive, 371 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,200 Speaker 1: right like for something like this, and it's very important 372 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: to not be wrong. Yep. You can't make stuff up 373 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 1: off the top of your head. You're not there to 374 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:08,160 Speaker 1: guess and speculate. You know, you shouldn't be anyway, some 375 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,439 Speaker 1: some of these guys do. But yeah no, no, not 376 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 1: a boy, Mike, No, best smelling guy in the NFL. Absolutely, 377 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 1: I was wonderful. What summer.

Yeah, but yeah, we all 387 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:57,479 Speaker 1: did well overall. Good we should be It's December January, actually, 388 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: I mean when you know shar so Sharper. I think 389 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 1: I hope it's after a Thanksgiving Scott had a bounce 390 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:05,880 Speaker 1: back here. I was terrible last year? Do you still 391 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 1: keep last year's I'd love to know how bad I was. 392 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 1: I wonder who was worse me last year of Fred 393 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 1: this year? I don't. I used to do it in 394 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 1: a nope smart and the note book. You know, I 395 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 1: have like a lot of my notebooks in the path. 396 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 1: I would just go back and take it all the 397 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,199 Speaker 1: nope but and compile them into a big leather bound 398 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: book that is, you know, the Book of Picks, and 399 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 1: then we keep it like in you know, Harry Potter, 400 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 1: like in some libraries somewhere. You really had a geek 401 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 1: it up, didn't you. Yeah, good job he threw it out, though, 402 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: So I don't think the Book of Picks and probably 403 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,679 Speaker 1: I could probably tell you what happened in like twenty eighteen, right, 404 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 1: and he came in third? All right, um, I guess 405 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,120 Speaker 1: you know we'll go right to the listeners, because sure, yeah, 406 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,640 Speaker 1: we can talk some bills, some actual game. I feel 407 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 1: all right, So yeah, yeah, Mike, you want to go 408 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 1: to the calls and get a couple of thoughts because 409 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: I mean I think we could. Also it's time to 410 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: talk about the matchup. Yeah, moving to the matchup. Mike 411 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 1: put out the roundtable questions we could sort of batch. 412 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 1: I haven't answered yet. Okay, I haven't even seen the question. Mind, 413 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 1: we can bat them around a little bit if you like. Um, 414 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 1: let's go to us being Fresno. What's up, Speed? I 415 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: was looking to geek it up rather than do something 416 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 1: relevant about the game. Sorry, Oh no, you can geek 417 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: it Cane. You can get get up with the best 418 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:24,679 Speaker 1: of them. That's very true. Um, hey, Mike, I know 419 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 1: what you were trying to do yesterday with your touchdown 420 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 1: that Yeah, um, I get where you got your twelve 421 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 1: point two five per game touched. But it ends up 422 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 1: the emailer was right. It's really misleading because you completely 423 00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 1: ignore the field goals, which the should count as part 424 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,439 Speaker 1: of the offensive production, which is what some of them. 425 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,639 Speaker 1: Fred was asking. Yeah, yeah, some of them should. Okay, well, okay, 426 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 1: I understand. I understand what you're saying, and my geekness 427 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 1: is going to get us there. But basically, I the Patriots, 428 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,159 Speaker 1: if you include the field goals. The emailers right, they 429 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 1: score eighteen points per game like seventeen point nine four 430 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: feet pop four. But um, but when you I did that, 431 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: I have no life. And I went through every single 432 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: scoring play yesterday and try to fish out which one 433 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: should probably instead be attributed to the defense. Not just 434 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 1: defensive scores, but offensive scores that we understand. You know, 435 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,680 Speaker 1: Brandon Schooler sets you up at the opponent's ten yard line, 436 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 1: or Jonathan Jonas interception with you it like seventeen four 437 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 1: players later, you know, you get a touchdown. I think 438 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 1: that those are defensive scores that masquerade as offensive scores, 439 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 1: and so I some of this is subjective, but when yeah, 440 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: but everybody's counting those, so you can't take them out 441 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,919 Speaker 1: of ours, and every other team in the NFL counts them, 442 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: so you have to do what everybody else. I'm not 443 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 1: doing a relative Patriots to others. I'm trying to under Okay, 444 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: all right, if you just look at the Patriots themselves, 445 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:49,879 Speaker 1: I think that the offensive production overall ends up dropping 446 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 1: down to about twelve point seven five points. Like it's 447 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 1: well that was the number was No, No, it a 448 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:03,199 Speaker 1: different way. No, the numbers sorry twelt two five. What 449 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 1: you guys were saying was, but imagine how much lower 450 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:07,679 Speaker 1: it is than that when you take out no special 451 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 1: we weren't no dues. Took all the defensive touchdowns out 452 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 1: he has I can still I can see his highlights 453 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 1: right now. He can show you on them. He took 454 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 1: all of the ones that were counted as defensive touchdowns 455 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,679 Speaker 1: out when he described right, that are right. And his 456 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 1: number was lower than yours twelve point two. And his 457 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 1: numbers incorrect because he didn't take field goals into account. Okay, 458 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 1: so yours is twelve point seven. So we got half 459 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 1: a point more. That's twelve points. Now it's eighteen when 460 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 1: you actually count overall off into production. It's twelve point 461 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 1: seventy five when you when you actually just take out 462 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,959 Speaker 1: the sort of mass defensive and specialty sports. Right, So 463 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 1: we ended up with the same spot. No, he's saying, 464 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 1: if he adds, I know what he's saying. It's not hard. 465 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 1: It's not brain surgery. I understand what he's saying. It's it. 466 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 1: But it came out the same thing that Mike did 467 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 1: without going through all that painstaking process. But to me, 468 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,080 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter if we're correct because we don't have 469 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: anything to compare it. And that's the question that you 470 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: were looking for, right, right, right, It's not the same, 471 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 1: but I like, I hear what you say. You're getting 472 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 1: into it. There've only been three pick three, actually four, 473 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 1: Well there's a there was a scoopid score. That's kind 474 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 1: of pick threes. He said, oh, pick three, pick three. Yeah, 475 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: I would argue this. I think there was more than 476 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 1: three pick threes in the Detroit game alone, but I, 477 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 1: you know whatever, in the Detroit game there was one 478 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 1: and that was the Jonathan Jones interception of the offense 479 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:36,360 Speaker 1: drove for eighty nine yards. So that's like the least 480 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: three once they had one touchdown in the game. Okay, 481 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,359 Speaker 1: well what I'm glad I went to the call, Speed, 482 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:51,719 Speaker 1: Thanks thanks for the call. Yeah, like yeah, I like 483 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,959 Speaker 1: I apologize for giving everyone the headache yesterday. Like I 484 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 1: just think I just say okay without even like going 485 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 1: we just know from the eye test that true offensive 486 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: touchdowns have been at a premium this year. And what 487 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 1: I was trying to get at, like Fred's question was 488 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 1: something very specific that we don't have because there's no 489 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: one that's going through every team's drives to determine what 490 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:22,119 Speaker 1: we like, you know, Speed did it for the Patriots. 491 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: Speed did a lot of detailed research there and figured 492 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 1: out that. And I know the play he's talking about, 493 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 1: like the ball bounces off of Gunnar Rolshovski's face mask 494 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: and you take over the ten yard line. I have 495 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,880 Speaker 1: a hard time calling that an offensive touchdown. Everybody else 496 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 1: who tabulates that is calling it an offensive touchdown, and 497 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 1: that's fair. So if they are, then let's do it 498 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:44,639 Speaker 1: and let's see. But they're not talking about all the 499 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 1: other teams. They're not doing that at all. We're doing 500 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 1: it for the page, I know. But but my point is, 501 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,679 Speaker 1: I thought there was a stat and there isn't. Where 502 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 1: the DVOA takes the points, they do the yards like 503 00:25:56,880 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 1: I got, like I got all kinds of tweets about 504 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:05,120 Speaker 1: this yesterday. I'm sure you did too. I know what 505 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 1: the numbers that you were giving yesterday represent. Like people 506 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: are trying to explain it to me, you know, because 507 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:14,479 Speaker 1: I'm a dinosaur, I don't understand things. I thought that 508 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: there was a mechanism with all of these analytics that 509 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:24,400 Speaker 1: factored in such things, and evidently there isn't. It's it's 510 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,120 Speaker 1: left here interpretation. And like I said, Fred might look 511 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 1: at a touchdown and say well, that's an offensive score. 512 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 1: And you might look at it, Mike and say, well, 513 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 1: really they went seven yards, it's not really an offensive score, right, 514 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 1: But at the same time, I don't want to penalize 515 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,280 Speaker 1: my offense because my defense is really good, exactly, you know, 516 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,400 Speaker 1: So like that, yeah, but like, and I think reasonable 517 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 1: minds can agree. When you recover a fumble off a 518 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 1: face mask of a punt returner at the ten yard 519 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 1: line and you score, that's really not much of an accomplishment. 520 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:53,880 Speaker 1: You could count it if you want. Well, when you're 521 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,919 Speaker 1: in like we are, on the red zone, it is. Yeah, Like, 522 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,200 Speaker 1: I think the bigger problem in the red zone is 523 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 1: the lack of the the visits to said red zone. 524 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,120 Speaker 1: Then it is how many times you score when you're there. Yeah, 525 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,920 Speaker 1: like that's the problem. Let's go to Eddie in La. 526 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 1: What's up, Eddie? What's up? Guys? So I was listening 527 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 1: yesterday's podcast this morning. Yeah, and I love that you 528 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 1: guys talked about the future of the team. So I 529 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 1: just wanted to say some things as well. Okay, I 530 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 1: think that if Bill doesn't go out and spend the 531 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 1: money on a wide receiver one, then the rebuild for 532 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:30,640 Speaker 1: the offense isn't gonna come as quick as we all 533 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 1: hope it will, especially since next season the only receiver 534 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 1: coming back is Thornton most likely at least. Also because 535 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 1: I think there's if there's a good looking tackle in 536 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 1: the draft, I mean, wherever we fall in the draft, 537 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 1: I think we should just go for that tackle instead 538 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,119 Speaker 1: of flipping the coin on a wide receiver. You know, 539 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 1: I don't want another Nikkia Harry scenario. Yeah. Well you know, 540 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:56,479 Speaker 1: but even if go ahead, even if there's no tackle 541 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 1: out there, like if there's a defensive stud that comes 542 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 1: like lands on us, like, I think we should just 543 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 1: go on that defensive stud. Also instead of a white, 544 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 1: I would say, if there's a stud that's available to us, 545 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 1: just get them. I don't care where, you know, just 546 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,399 Speaker 1: get the stud. Um. But you know, I hear what 547 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 1: you're saying about tackle. The thing is, if if you're 548 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:22,120 Speaker 1: gonna get a stud tackle, they're usually up top two, 549 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:26,879 Speaker 1: you know, within the top twenty. Um. So there's a 550 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: few of them this year. I mean I'm starting you 551 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,159 Speaker 1: can get a Sebasti Vomer in the second round and 552 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: he turns out to be a good tackle. Yeah, you know, 553 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: but the Blue Chippers are are They're gonna be going 554 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 1: high too, you know. Yeah, so Eddie, I appreciate you know, 555 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 1: so basically it's I mean stuff. Yeah, he's saying this 556 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 1: offensive rebuild is going to be longer than we think 557 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 1: it's gonna be because we're kind of starting over at 558 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 1: ride receiver next year a little bit. I mean, I 559 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 1: think that goes to, you know, the philosophy of how 560 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 1: do you how do you want to get that receiver? 561 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 1: I mean, he wants to go trade for one. I'm 562 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 1: sure there's arguments to be made to draft one of 563 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 1: these guys this year. I know yesterday Evan was talking 564 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: a little bit about there's not a great top of 565 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 1: the draft of the receivers. But I mean I agree 566 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 1: with the general point. And I mean I wouldn't just 567 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 1: say receiver, like I think you need, you know, like 568 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: if you could find it a tight end, that's a 569 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 1: game changer, you know what I mean, Like if you 570 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 1: could find I think the Patriots they had Gronk and 571 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 1: Edelman and you know that wasn't kind of the usual 572 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 1: setup you have where the best guy is this big 573 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 1: stud outside wide receiver. I mean, I think you just 574 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: need star players. You need guys who can who can 575 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 1: deliver in these big moments. And you know, I think 576 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 1: that's the bigger point of just what they don't really 577 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 1: have right now. Of you know, the tight ends are okay, 578 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 1: the receivers are okay, the running backs you have some positivity. 579 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: You'd love to see what they look like with an 580 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: actual passing attack and some better, more consistent blocking up front. 581 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: But I and I agree with the overall points they 582 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 1: need they need some big pieces. So, by the way, 583 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 1: I finally found something real quick on the red zone. Okay, 584 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 1: there's one team in football who's been to the red 585 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 1: zone less than the Patriots this year. You know who 586 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 1: it is? Cleveland, Denver, Denver. Oh yeah, it's the only 587 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 1: offense that's actually been to the red zone fewer times 588 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 1: than the Patriots. So a lot of like stat based 589 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 1: people will tell you, like the percentage itself for the Patriots, 590 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 1: it's a small sample size. Yeah yeah, Like the bigger 591 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 1: problem is they don't get there two point six red 592 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: zone possessions. They don't a game. They don't. It's tied 593 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 1: for twenty ninths with Washington and Tennessee. They don't stack 594 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 1: offensive place together right now, Tennessee is a dynamite red 595 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: zone team, but they don't get there. That's why they 596 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 1: don't score. Right. Um, While we were talking, Florio from 597 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 1: Pro Football Talk came out with a report that he's 598 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 1: hearing that the league is going to call the Cincinnati 599 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: Bills game a no contest, which is the same as 600 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 1: you a thing with a tie. Well that I don't 601 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 1: is it? Yes? Is calling it a no contest different 602 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 1: than calling it a tie? Yeah, I don't know. It's 603 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 1: it's the same thing. It's the same. It's good. Well, 604 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 1: but I think a tie the stats recorded, and like, 605 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 1: wouldn't you You can't just say it's a tie, right, 606 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 1: I mean, it would just be zero zero. So I 607 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 1: guess no contest is saying that anything going to happen 608 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 1: in the game doesn't so all the stats go away. Well, 609 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 1: the stats are irrelevant. They played ten minutes. No, I know, 610 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 1: But but somebody had a touchdown that could add that 611 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 1: could be the touchdown. He needs to have an incentive earned. 612 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 1: Oh well, you know, I mean the team owner should 613 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: be excommunicated from the league if on a technicality you 614 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 1: didn't give a guy. They're a difference between calling it 615 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: a no contest in time. I'm just talking about the standings. 616 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,240 Speaker 1: I'm not talking about the numbers, like you know, someone's 617 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 1: fantasy league. I'm sure was was really upset by that, 618 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 1: and I'm serious, and that's I'm not making light of it. 619 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 1: There's a lot of money for the people involved the 620 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 1: betting in the fantasy and the gambling and all that. 621 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: I get it. It's a big business. But in terms 622 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 1: of the standings, if you're giving them ties, then they 623 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 1: stay tied. If you're giving it no contest, that means 624 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 1: the game didn't happen. They're still tied. Like. It doesn't 625 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 1: change the standings, right, and they're gonna end up both 626 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 1: being still behind Kansas City with a tie or a 627 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,000 Speaker 1: no contest if Kansas City wins. Do you know what 628 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Because Kansas City is gonna go fourteen and three, 629 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 1: and Buffalo if they beat the Patriots, is gonna be 630 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 1: thirteen and three. Yeah, yep. In Cincinnati will be twelve 631 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: and four. So a tie. You know, if you're twelve 632 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 1: four and one or thirteen three and one, you're still 633 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 1: behind fourteen and three Kansas City. That's all I'm saying. 634 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter if you call it a tie or 635 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,120 Speaker 1: no contest that I'm seeing. Schefter two, I saw a 636 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 1: speculating conference championships might be neutral site. That's kind of 637 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 1: that's kind of interesting. Yeah, I've heard, you know, can 638 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 1: we get back to the facacta things? Sure? Yeah, that's 639 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 1: one thing I've heard thrown out there is like, okay, 640 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 1: so Buffalo if if Buffalo is the two and Cincinnati's 641 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,360 Speaker 1: the three, you know, so Kansas City has kind of 642 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 1: gifted the one seed. So maybe as a as a 643 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 1: you know, as a gesture tribute. Yeah, you say, Okay, 644 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 1: well you're the one, you get the buy, but when 645 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 1: we get to the AFC Championship, they don't. They shouldn't 646 00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 1: have to travel to Kansas City, play somewhere else gets stadium. 647 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 1: I don't like. I don't know if I like that, 648 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 1: But again, I'm not here to shoot down any ideas. 649 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 1: In such an unprecedented time, I think people are really 650 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 1: trying to come up with different scenarios that might be 651 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 1: you know, interesting. Do you think they decide anything before 652 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 1: the games go off Sunday? Do you think anything he 653 00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 1: has decided with this game before these games are are 654 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 1: played or not played on Sunday? I don't know, but 655 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think you No, the problem 656 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: is no matter what happens on Sunday, it can't get resolved. Yeah, 657 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:36,040 Speaker 1: it's just a question of what's your real problem because 658 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 1: if you know, if if Kansas City does lose, well, 659 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 1: Cincinnati and Buffalo still have the same chance to get 660 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 1: the number one seed. Yeah. Now if Kansas City and 661 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 1: Cincinnati lose and Buffalo wins, then that's different. Now you're 662 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 1: just talking about the two and three seed. Cincinnati could 663 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 1: get the three that you know, the two seed over 664 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 1: Kansas City. Yeah, and that's why it's like it almost 665 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 1: feels more fair to decide now before you know who 666 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 1: is like who has the problem? You know, like who 667 00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:08,000 Speaker 1: who's get screwed in this situation? Like based on the results, 668 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 1: is it Kansas City that they you know, are getting 669 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:12,319 Speaker 1: it gifted that they get or is it Buffalo not 670 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 1: getting even a chance to play for it when they 671 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,839 Speaker 1: could have? Um, you know, like it's just I feel 672 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:18,319 Speaker 1: like they do it after the games, then it's going 673 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 1: to feel like it might favor certain teams. But it's complicated. 674 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:24,240 Speaker 1: I don't there's no there's no easy answer. It's amazing 675 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:26,440 Speaker 1: that like this is like I would have thought for 676 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 1: sure something like this would have happened during all that 677 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 1: COVID stuff, and somehow you made it through COVID without 678 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,400 Speaker 1: ever having to get this crazy where you're trying like 679 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: we don't know what the answer is, Like, I mean, 680 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 1: it was always like, we'll just play Tuesday and then 681 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: you know, but we never got to like the playoffs, 682 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,799 Speaker 1: and then something happened that threw everything off. Eighty five 683 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:51,359 Speaker 1: five Pats five hundred. Let's go to Travis in North Carolina. Hey, Travis, Hello, Hey, 684 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 1: but I got a question, and I do all I'm 685 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:57,320 Speaker 1: not trying to come off as a sense to the 686 00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:00,879 Speaker 1: mar Hamlet. In order the Bills, they're going to play 687 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 1: the game, and the Bill and the Patriots need to 688 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 1: win to make the playoffs. Ye, So if your Bill 689 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 1: and you win the toss, do you go on offense 690 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:13,560 Speaker 1: first to try to get a like cheat touchdown? I 691 00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:16,440 Speaker 1: guess you could say, because serians, the first time the 692 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:21,719 Speaker 1: Bill has been on the field, I missed that. So 693 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 1: if you win the toss, do you go on offense first, 694 00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 1: because maybe they're a little not ready to go right 695 00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:31,440 Speaker 1: off out of the gate and try to take advantage 696 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:36,880 Speaker 1: of that. Yeah, you can the other way. Yeah, I 697 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 1: would go to the other one. And maybe they're not 698 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 1: written into you apply. I think both of you guys 699 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 1: brought up you know, does Josh Allen try to be 700 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:47,120 Speaker 1: even more Superman and he gives you one? He gives 701 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,760 Speaker 1: you one early because he's not quite ready to go. Yeah. 702 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 1: So but Travis, I you don't have to have the 703 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:54,600 Speaker 1: preamble of like I'm not trying to be You're talking 704 00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 1: about the game and you're talking about strategy, and there's 705 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: nothing wrong with that, right I Like, I mean, I mean, 706 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 1: it's it's a difference for the different Look now, it's 707 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 1: I just I wonder if I mean, you know, are 708 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 1: you gonna learn anything about the Patriots in this game? 709 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 1: You're gonna learn anything about the Bills? Like it feels 710 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,800 Speaker 1: like you already know what's going to be said based 711 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:13,359 Speaker 1: on if the Patriots win this game or the Bills 712 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:16,320 Speaker 1: win this game. You know everything that's gonna be Why 713 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,120 Speaker 1: that happened, like you know what I mean? Yeah, real quick, 714 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 1: I knew I would screw this up if I kept 715 00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,480 Speaker 1: talking about it. So you said, do they wait till 716 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 1: week eighteen? And I think they do? And the one 717 00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:31,800 Speaker 1: advantage that you could have, however, remote is if Kansas 718 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:36,320 Speaker 1: City and Cincinnati lose and Buffalo wins, it's neat. Yeah, 719 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:39,759 Speaker 1: it's Buffalo one, Kansas City two, Cincinnati three. That's the 720 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:41,879 Speaker 1: way the records would be, regardless of what would happen 721 00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:45,280 Speaker 1: and that buff in that Buffalo Cincinnati game, right because 722 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 1: if if because Cincinnati is a game behind, you know, 723 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 1: they would need to win and have Kansas City lose 724 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 1: to tie Kansas City and they have, you know, because 725 00:36:56,480 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 1: they have the tie River who Cincinnati is playing, right, Yeah, Now, 726 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 1: most likely both of those teams are going to win 727 00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 1: their games, Kansas City in Cincinnati. But listen these there's 728 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 1: upsets everywhere. Yeah. Um, let's go to Daniel in the UK. 729 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:20,880 Speaker 1: What's up, Daniel? Hi, Just sort of circling back to 730 00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:23,760 Speaker 1: the conversation from ages ago. You Paul was complaining about 731 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 1: not having stats that corrected for sort of if you 732 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 1: arrived or see the five yard line were expected touchdown, 733 00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 1: you're most likely going to score it though. Ye, So 734 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,760 Speaker 1: there's a website. This isn't something I run NFL index 735 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:39,759 Speaker 1: dot com, which I think is getting to the heart 736 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,799 Speaker 1: of what Paul's after, where you can sort of apply 737 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,960 Speaker 1: some filters. So if you type it in, you can 738 00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 1: sort of choose which team, what year, which weeks, and 739 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:51,120 Speaker 1: if you just go to the bottom, you can sort 740 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:54,359 Speaker 1: it by the offense. And so if you're if you're 741 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:56,720 Speaker 1: given them ball in the five yard line, you normally 742 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:58,960 Speaker 1: score let's say five points there, and if you get 743 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,040 Speaker 1: given the ball in the twenty, you know, we score four. 744 00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:02,920 Speaker 1: So I think that sort of addresses what you're going for, 745 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 1: and then you can sort of see this season the 746 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 1: Patriots after twenty sixth offense, so we're still not very good. Yeah, yeah, Okay, Well, 747 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,760 Speaker 1: it's just I feel like this is becoming an NFL 748 00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:17,759 Speaker 1: index Daniel NFL index dot Com. Okay, it's all right, 749 00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:20,800 Speaker 1: thank you, we'll tell Evan about it. Thanks. I just 750 00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:22,919 Speaker 1: feel like it's devolving into like how many different ways 751 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:24,839 Speaker 1: can you say the Patriots offense sucks? Like how many 752 00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,320 Speaker 1: different stats can you like? I mean, like it's just simple. 753 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:30,920 Speaker 1: It's like average drive time of possession twenty eighth, average 754 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:33,760 Speaker 1: place per drive twenty nine, average yards prodrive twenty seventh, 755 00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:36,480 Speaker 1: average point you know, twenty fifth, I mean, right, And 756 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:38,960 Speaker 1: that's why. Yeah, and again I'm not making fun of 757 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,239 Speaker 1: fred because Freddie wanted to sort of like get a 758 00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 1: specific point total. Yeah, you know, comparison with the other teams. 759 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 1: I think the greater thing is what are they in points? 760 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,399 Speaker 1: Like counting everything? Oh just overall twenty six or sorry, 761 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:55,719 Speaker 1: seventeenth seventeenth with seven defensive touchdowns. You see that that's 762 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 1: higher than I thought it would be. Oh no, with 763 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 1: this going on defense every week. Friend. But oh so 764 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:06,080 Speaker 1: that includes thecludes everything, everything, everything. That's what I'm saying. 765 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 1: Like that tells you what the caller just explained, right, Like, 766 00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 1: they're in the twenties and every low twenty every offensive 767 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:14,840 Speaker 1: metric you could come up with, right, third down yards, 768 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:19,480 Speaker 1: time of possession, points, drive, drive time, you know, like 769 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,319 Speaker 1: three and outs like every like anything you can come 770 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 1: up with. They're like somewhere between twenty five and thirty two. Yeah, 771 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:32,360 Speaker 1: except for turnovers twelve points, and you know the turnovers 772 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:36,400 Speaker 1: thing is to me, I find it interesting. Let's go 773 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 1: to William and philam what's up? William? Hey for it? 774 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 1: How are you doing good? All right? My questions for uh, 775 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:51,319 Speaker 1: Paul whatnot? Um? But how did I say? Did all right? 776 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 1: This is the off season question basically, so it has 777 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:56,239 Speaker 1: nothing to do far with the Bills game and the 778 00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 1: faces no whatever like that. So I just want you 779 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,960 Speaker 1: to do just open your mind a little bit, Paul 780 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:06,680 Speaker 1: with this one, Okay, So I'll try, um, you know, okay, 781 00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:08,800 Speaker 1: so we all know that Bill might not be highly 782 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:12,000 Speaker 1: on Mac Jones, right, and you know there's a little 783 00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 1: thing's going on with the Ravens whatnot? I mean, before 784 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 1: you blew me off, I already know what wait with 785 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm not blowing you up with who the Ravens? Okay, 786 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 1: So it's a Lamar question because then ye right right, okay, 787 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:28,759 Speaker 1: So here's here's the question with it. So all right, 788 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,480 Speaker 1: so you already got to see Josh Allen already, okay, 789 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:33,239 Speaker 1: and you already know he's a pain in your you 790 00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 1: being Bill Belichick, right, and now I think Lamar might 791 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:40,880 Speaker 1: wind up with the Dolphins though, But if something like 792 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:44,720 Speaker 1: that happened, would you want to run interference and get Lamar? 793 00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:46,839 Speaker 1: That way you don't have to deal with Lamar and 794 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:51,000 Speaker 1: johnsh Allen because you're not big on Mac even. Yes, 795 00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:54,239 Speaker 1: you diminished Mac though, but maybe you're not sold on him. 796 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:56,480 Speaker 1: Maybe you're not you you don't like the wine and 797 00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:59,040 Speaker 1: and stuff, and then doing you might want to you 798 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:00,560 Speaker 1: know what I mean, The number one one reason why 799 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:02,560 Speaker 1: you would get Lamar Jackson is because you think you 800 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:04,719 Speaker 1: can win a super Bowl with him, not to run 801 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:07,600 Speaker 1: interference with another team, so you have to you know, 802 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:10,960 Speaker 1: that might be the side benefit of getting him, that 803 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:13,799 Speaker 1: another team in your division wanted him and you got him. 804 00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 1: But number one, you have to believe in him. You 805 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:17,960 Speaker 1: have to believe in him. You have to believe that 806 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 1: and getting this guy, I can redesign my offense and 807 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 1: I can want that part of you. And that's what 808 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:25,759 Speaker 1: Ever and I were talking about yesterday, and I got 809 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:27,600 Speaker 1: a question about it in the mailback this week. I 810 00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:32,239 Speaker 1: don't think it's like it's he is a priority. He's 811 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 1: going to be the crown jewel of free agency, right right. 812 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:39,520 Speaker 1: I don't think it's ridiculous to suggest that your team 813 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:41,920 Speaker 1: is not sold on its quarterback and is a very 814 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:45,680 Speaker 1: good quarterback who will be available, especially what's what happened 815 00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 1: the last five years. You know, maybe ten years ago 816 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:50,960 Speaker 1: it would have been silly to discuss this, but now 817 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:55,319 Speaker 1: you're seeing high profile quarterbacks change teams every year. Why 818 00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:58,719 Speaker 1: not Lamar Jackson to the Patriots. It's not a silly thing. 819 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 1: I don't think it will happened in my mind. However, 820 00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:05,080 Speaker 1: is open to it, William Absolutely, I love Lamar Jackson. 821 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,600 Speaker 1: I just think that you'd have to really do a 822 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:09,799 Speaker 1: lot to make that work. That's my thing. But I 823 00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:11,319 Speaker 1: also think that you're hitting a little bit of a 824 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,759 Speaker 1: point right now where you're probably gonna need an OC. 825 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:16,000 Speaker 1: You're gonna lose a bunch of wide receivers. So I mean, 826 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 1: I'm agree with you, but the opportunity, let's keep playing 827 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:21,719 Speaker 1: it out. I like this. Bill O'Brien is supposed to 828 00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 1: be the new offensive cornator, right. How much different is 829 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:28,799 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson and Deshaun Watson in style? Yeah? He learned. 830 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,120 Speaker 1: I mean Bill O'Brien learned to develop, and he was 831 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:36,440 Speaker 1: instrumental in developing Deshaun Watson. Now, I think Watson's a 832 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:40,400 Speaker 1: better passer than than Jackson. You know, So maybe you 833 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 1: could say what was easier for Billy O'Brien to do 834 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:44,680 Speaker 1: it with him? But it's one of those things that 835 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:46,839 Speaker 1: Tim and I haven't even really discussed. What I think 836 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 1: is the biggest obstacle is I'm not sure the Patriots 837 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:51,640 Speaker 1: are willing to give two hundred and fifty guaranteed million 838 00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 1: dollars anybody to anybody, right, you know? But okay, yeah, 839 00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:01,880 Speaker 1: that's true. I mean we have seen crazy things in 840 00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 1: the NFL. I mean thinking about it, like we never 841 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:05,759 Speaker 1: thought we would get Randy Moss. You never thought you 842 00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:09,240 Speaker 1: would get Brandon Cooked or Stephane Gilmore or Darrell Reevers. 843 00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:12,719 Speaker 1: So I mean even seeing Devine stay Addy's run over 844 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:14,759 Speaker 1: to the to the to the Raiders and whatnot. So 845 00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,160 Speaker 1: I'll leave a chance. But I was just thinking of 846 00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick. You Okay, he's seventy years old. Do he 847 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:22,440 Speaker 1: wants to see what because he wants to go through 848 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:23,920 Speaker 1: this with Mac? Do you know what I'm saying? Yeah, 849 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:25,919 Speaker 1: that's what I was trying. I know. Yeah, all those 850 00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:28,520 Speaker 1: guys you mentioned, I mean, all those guys you mentioned, 851 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:32,879 Speaker 1: including Gilmore, it doesn't come close to what you're gonna 852 00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:34,840 Speaker 1: have to pay Lamar Jackson. Yeah. I would say Gilmore 853 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:37,160 Speaker 1: is the only one that's comparable to this, because Gilmore 854 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 1: got top of the market, high end free agent corner 855 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:42,400 Speaker 1: money for a corner out of nowhere. But I wouldn't 856 00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:44,799 Speaker 1: have said that's never gonna happen. Yeah, Now, was I 857 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:46,839 Speaker 1: surprised when I when I walked into work the day 858 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,200 Speaker 1: that they signed, Yes, because I hadn't heard anything about it. Yes, 859 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:52,719 Speaker 1: I was, But I mean Fred's right, you're talking what 860 00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 1: two and a half three times? Yeah, he's gonna want 861 00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 1: he wants to set the quarterback market. Yeah, I know 862 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 1: he wants. He wants Watson's contract. Deshaun Watson's contract in 863 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 1: Cleveland is what he's looking for. Nobody should get that though. 864 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:12,759 Speaker 1: That's the problems. He's freaking everything. I mean, he's better. Uh, 865 00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 1: I don't know think so. I don't think so. I 866 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:17,640 Speaker 1: just I mean I like watching. I don't know if 867 00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:20,400 Speaker 1: Watson will ever be the same. Yeah, um, you know, 868 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:22,359 Speaker 1: I know he looked good in the second half last week, 869 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:26,400 Speaker 1: But I don't know if they'll ever because oh what, 870 00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:29,560 Speaker 1: oh what? Oh you know what you did? I don't 871 00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:31,760 Speaker 1: know what you did? Kersh you know what you Thanks 872 00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:36,880 Speaker 1: William H. Let's go to market Sacramento. What's up, Mark? 873 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:41,600 Speaker 1: Can you guys see man? Yeah? Yeah? Thanks? Could happen? 874 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:45,680 Speaker 1: I call it nice. I just had a thought about 875 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:48,600 Speaker 1: the Cincinnati ban goes in the Buffalo Bills game and 876 00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:50,440 Speaker 1: how to solve the problem. I just want to get 877 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:55,120 Speaker 1: through guy's thoughts about it. Okay, how about because it's 878 00:44:55,120 --> 00:45:01,839 Speaker 1: been like moving everything around and play nineteen game, how 879 00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:06,439 Speaker 1: about just a simple point coin talus and m one 880 00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:11,520 Speaker 1: coach in the other whoever and the other thing gets 881 00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 1: to lose and he just move on the Frinday and 882 00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:16,759 Speaker 1: everything as noble. Yeah. I've heard that thrown out there too. 883 00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:18,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I think if it's a difference between two 884 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,040 Speaker 1: and three, why not I I just find the conference 885 00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:23,719 Speaker 1: championship game. You know, then that becomes a little bit 886 00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:25,920 Speaker 1: of or if those two teams were to meet, especially 887 00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:28,319 Speaker 1: being three and two, thing, who gets to play? Where? Yeah? 888 00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:30,920 Speaker 1: Where do you play? That? That's the question. And you 889 00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 1: know that's a big that's a big it's a big 890 00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:34,600 Speaker 1: coin flip for for a playoff game, especially you know 891 00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:37,640 Speaker 1: two teams. He televise that flip live, right, yeah, right? 892 00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:39,520 Speaker 1: Do you know they used to decision They used to 893 00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 1: do those coin flips, like on conference calls, like back 894 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 1: in the in the old heads they just believe nineteen 895 00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:50,000 Speaker 1: seventies like NBA number one overall pick. It'd be like 896 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,920 Speaker 1: the owner of the Cavaliers and you know in Cleveland 897 00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:55,839 Speaker 1: and the older the like the Trailblazers in Portland, oh, 898 00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:58,319 Speaker 1: and I'm Larry O'Brien. I'm gonna flip the coin now. 899 00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:01,960 Speaker 1: Oh and it's head Oh okay, imagine Al Davis being 900 00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 1: involved in one of those I call challenge. Wow. But yeah, 901 00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,799 Speaker 1: I've heard the coin flip thrown out there too. I mean, yeah, 902 00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:15,440 Speaker 1: is that more equitable than calling in a no contest? 903 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. But to me, it comes back to 904 00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:22,399 Speaker 1: what Cincinnati and Buffalo want. Yeah, you know what they're 905 00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:26,719 Speaker 1: willing to agree to, what's fair to them. I don't 906 00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 1: think this should be a like just the ruling from 907 00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:34,239 Speaker 1: above from Roger Goodell, I think, and I don't think 908 00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:36,000 Speaker 1: it will be. He has the power to do it, 909 00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:40,240 Speaker 1: you know, according to the the CBA and all that stuff. 910 00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:43,680 Speaker 1: But I think that he needs to have conversations with 911 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:45,880 Speaker 1: the two teams and they need to reach an agreement 912 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:48,160 Speaker 1: as to what they think is most equitable. What time 913 00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 1: did they catch? Twenty two shows start this morning? Okay, 914 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:53,919 Speaker 1: So I don't want to take emails that were sent 915 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:57,479 Speaker 1: to them, yeah, Carl writ saying I don't want any 916 00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:00,759 Speaker 1: part of that. Well, one of says this is the 917 00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:04,080 Speaker 1: best football podcast on the internet, hands down. So I 918 00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:08,239 Speaker 1: came in at ten thirty five, So I'm gonna's mother. 919 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:12,040 Speaker 1: I gotta give that to cash twenty two. Um, let's see, 920 00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:16,080 Speaker 1: this is Carl from Rochester. I haven't written in a while, 921 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:20,279 Speaker 1: but listen regularly. Here's a game. Would Belichick stay or 922 00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:23,480 Speaker 1: leave if Robert Craft I pose these conditions? Note? I 923 00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:26,319 Speaker 1: know these probably won't happen Paul and Evan, but just 924 00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:30,400 Speaker 1: throwing some ideas out there. Would he stay if Patricia 925 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 1: and Judge can stay in the team but have to 926 00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:36,520 Speaker 1: but have no coaching power over any part of the offense? Stay? 927 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:40,279 Speaker 1: Would he stay or leave? I think he'd stay. No 928 00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 1: power of the offense, Yeah, no coaching power of the offense. 929 00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:48,319 Speaker 1: So you can make Joe Judge special teams coaching. You're 930 00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:50,560 Speaker 1: gonna make Maddie pe a defensive coach. Question was would 931 00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:53,040 Speaker 1: Bill accept this? Yeah? Would he stay or leave? Really? 932 00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:55,040 Speaker 1: So you think that he's going to keep those guys? 933 00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:57,200 Speaker 1: I don't. Well, I don't think that Bills would accept 934 00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:00,919 Speaker 1: any like you're out of like you have less sponsible Okay, Now, 935 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:04,279 Speaker 1: the OC must be someone with extensive offensive and play 936 00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:07,640 Speaker 1: calling experience more than one season. I'll preface that one. 937 00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:11,480 Speaker 1: What was that? So the OC must be someone with 938 00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:14,920 Speaker 1: extensive offensive and play calling experience. Does he stay or leave? 939 00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:19,279 Speaker 1: This is a demand that's a stay because I think 940 00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:21,880 Speaker 1: that that's just what you'd what you'd hire anyway, right, 941 00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:24,000 Speaker 1: I mean right, Like, if it's Bill, you gotta hire 942 00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:25,880 Speaker 1: an offensive corder. Okay, great, I'm gonna hire some kid 943 00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:27,640 Speaker 1: that's never done it before. Like, no one's gonna No 944 00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:30,640 Speaker 1: one's gonna Matt Jones must be consulted and have input 945 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:34,319 Speaker 1: on the QB coach decision. I'm out. I don't think 946 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 1: you'd agree to that, and should he? And finally, a 947 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:40,919 Speaker 1: new draft per personnel is hired, and if they deem 948 00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:43,120 Speaker 1: a pick too risky or too much of a reach, 949 00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:47,080 Speaker 1: the pick is vetoed. New draft personnel is high. I 950 00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:50,560 Speaker 1: guess he means person a decider. Yeah, I don't know. 951 00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:53,759 Speaker 1: I think though that I don't think Bill's gonna like 952 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:57,399 Speaker 1: anything demanded. I think things have suggested and it has 953 00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:01,000 Speaker 1: to be Bill's. But it's a tonality issue. Yeah, don't 954 00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:06,160 Speaker 1: demand things. I don't appreciate your time. Yeah, um, Bill 955 00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 1: and Vista, California. Would you rather the Patriots sneak through 956 00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:12,319 Speaker 1: the playoffs and win the Super Bowl? Yeah? End up? 957 00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:15,480 Speaker 1: But end up keeping Patricia as next year, yes, or 958 00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:18,200 Speaker 1: miss the playoffs and bring in a qualified OC next year. 959 00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:23,440 Speaker 1: I'll take the Super Bowl and I'll sit here have knockdown, 960 00:49:23,560 --> 00:49:26,400 Speaker 1: drag out arguments with Fred that it had nothing to 961 00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:29,200 Speaker 1: do with the offense, I'll right now. But if that does, 962 00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:32,000 Speaker 1: but I'll take the title. But if that does somehow happen, 963 00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:34,759 Speaker 1: you have to be okay with Patricia being the OC 964 00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:37,359 Speaker 1: next year, right, Yeah, I'll take it. Yeah, okay, no 965 00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:40,520 Speaker 1: more complaining. All right, I'll take it. I mean, I'll 966 00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:42,759 Speaker 1: take a title over the alternative. Are you kidding me? 967 00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:47,800 Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? Let's go back to the phones. 968 00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:52,800 Speaker 1: We'll go to Austin and Michigan. What's up Austin, Hey, 969 00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:58,960 Speaker 1: good afternoon, guys. Thanks for taking my call. So um, 970 00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:04,839 Speaker 1: obviously everybody he saw the Tamlin injury, and one thing 971 00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:07,200 Speaker 1: that I wasn't a huge fan of of how they 972 00:50:07,239 --> 00:50:10,360 Speaker 1: handled it was the way I saw it was the 973 00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:14,040 Speaker 1: NFL they wanted to continue play. But I really think 974 00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:18,440 Speaker 1: that Sean McDermott was really the one that was pushing 975 00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:21,960 Speaker 1: for the game to be canceled, because if you look 976 00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:24,719 Speaker 1: at like him having the conversation with the Bengals head 977 00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:27,759 Speaker 1: coach and the referees and stuff. The way they're like 978 00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:30,840 Speaker 1: body language was, you know, they're standing all there and 979 00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:33,000 Speaker 1: they got their hands on their sides and whatnot. But 980 00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 1: when Sean McDermott was talking, he had his hand over 981 00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:38,759 Speaker 1: his mouth. He was covering it up because he didn't 982 00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:42,400 Speaker 1: want people knowing what he was saying. And to me 983 00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:46,000 Speaker 1: watching the game, seeing what unfolded, and in a few 984 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:48,120 Speaker 1: minutes we got to see, you know, I saw a 985 00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:51,160 Speaker 1: Bengals offense that was running the ball down the field. 986 00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:53,920 Speaker 1: Their defense held the Bills to three points on their 987 00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:57,120 Speaker 1: first drive, and on the Bengals second drive, they were 988 00:50:57,200 --> 00:51:02,360 Speaker 1: running up the field again. So and honestly, where that matters, Yeah, 989 00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:06,919 Speaker 1: totally totally irrelevant. I mean, you're implying that both teams 990 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:08,880 Speaker 1: got the ball went right down the field in a blink. 991 00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:11,480 Speaker 1: You're implying that McDermott didn't want to, you know, was 992 00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:13,719 Speaker 1: looking for an out. I don't think that's the case. 993 00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:16,239 Speaker 1: But I did hear that He's told, you know, the 994 00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:22,560 Speaker 1: coach for the Bengals, yeah, I gotta gospital. But then 995 00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:26,640 Speaker 1: you see how I think the build, like their staff 996 00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:30,880 Speaker 1: people were cleaning up the equipment before you know, before, 997 00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:33,560 Speaker 1: before you knew, yeah, before you knew at that point 998 00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:38,400 Speaker 1: they knew, yeah. I mean, it was pretty clear underneath 999 00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:40,400 Speaker 1: they were the away team, so they had to start 1000 00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:43,040 Speaker 1: picking right. And it was pretty clear underneath the stands 1001 00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:46,440 Speaker 1: when they showed that those shots from that that fixed 1002 00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:50,000 Speaker 1: camera that they showed McDermott on the phone and then 1003 00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:52,480 Speaker 1: he handed the phone to Taylor, it was pretty clear 1004 00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:56,600 Speaker 1: they were talking to either Troy Vincent or Roger Yeah, 1005 00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:59,560 Speaker 1: and they were finding and maybe maybe the coaches were 1006 00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:01,879 Speaker 1: the ones that said, yeah, we ain't playing the rest 1007 00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:03,759 Speaker 1: of this game. Yeah, And and that could happen. But 1008 00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:06,320 Speaker 1: to imply that he was looking for and out because 1009 00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:11,040 Speaker 1: he thought he was gonna lose Chris, I don't think so. Austin. Um, 1010 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:27,480 Speaker 1: guess who's here and has done so. Evan, we want 1011 00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:29,279 Speaker 1: to hear from practice, and then also I want to 1012 00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:32,120 Speaker 1: get your take on Bill's press conference. But tell us 1013 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:35,759 Speaker 1: what's going on outside, going on in the rain outside, 1014 00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:37,239 Speaker 1: So I just toughed it out for all of you, 1015 00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:45,840 Speaker 1: Browse Gros. Good news for the Patriots on Thursday, Marcus 1016 00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:49,520 Speaker 1: Jones and Johnny Smith are back at practice. Joh wow, 1017 00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:55,239 Speaker 1: that's someone we're excited about. Yeah, all right, Marcus Jones, 1018 00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:58,360 Speaker 1: Johnny Smith back at practice. The only player missing was 1019 00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:01,480 Speaker 1: Divon Godshaw. He wasn't on the injury report yesterday, so 1020 00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:03,480 Speaker 1: I wonder if that's an illness or something going on 1021 00:53:03,560 --> 00:53:06,360 Speaker 1: personal or whatever. Wouldn't look too much into that. But 1022 00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:09,399 Speaker 1: the good news is Marcus Jones, john U Smith back 1023 00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:12,920 Speaker 1: at practice, back participating from what we could see briefly 1024 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:17,600 Speaker 1: on our brief window. And I think that this can't 1025 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:19,759 Speaker 1: be a bad thing for the Patriots certainly. And I 1026 00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:22,560 Speaker 1: was talking to my cohort Alex Barth on the way 1027 00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:25,040 Speaker 1: back inside, and we're thinking, Okay, well, you got John 1028 00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:28,719 Speaker 1: Jones on digs and maybe Marcus Jones on Isaiah McKenzie 1029 00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:31,640 Speaker 1: and cook him with gas. You match up a little 1030 00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:33,399 Speaker 1: bit better, you do. I'm not saying that I feel 1031 00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:36,439 Speaker 1: much better about this game than I did yesterday, but 1032 00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:39,279 Speaker 1: certainly you have that, you have his big playability of 1033 00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:42,279 Speaker 1: potentially special teams that maybe playing him a little bit 1034 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:44,479 Speaker 1: on offense like they did in the Thursday night game. 1035 00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:49,760 Speaker 1: I think that there's at least some positive certainly from that. Okay, 1036 00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:55,000 Speaker 1: you did mention it was raining Upper Flower grass field 1037 00:53:56,080 --> 00:54:00,160 Speaker 1: in the rain. It's low forty, so it's not freezing 1038 00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:02,480 Speaker 1: by any means. So I think that was the one 1039 00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:05,320 Speaker 1: positive because if it was ten degrees colder, it's probably 1040 00:54:05,360 --> 00:54:08,480 Speaker 1: snow that or not rain. So we still haven't not 1041 00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:11,960 Speaker 1: to jinx it. But we still haven't had, to my knowledge, 1042 00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:15,920 Speaker 1: a snow practice. No, I don't think it's snowed in 1043 00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:18,400 Speaker 1: the game. No either. You're right not here, which has 1044 00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:21,800 Speaker 1: been weird. Um, And the early forecast for the Bills 1045 00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:27,480 Speaker 1: is there could be some participation thirties admit to upper thirties. 1046 00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:33,600 Speaker 1: I think for Sunday at one. Yeah, that's um. While 1047 00:54:33,640 --> 00:54:38,160 Speaker 1: you were out there, did the media learn about Florio's report? No, 1048 00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:41,880 Speaker 1: Florio's reporting that the league is going to call the 1049 00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:46,000 Speaker 1: Bengals Bills game a no contest. Okay, that makes sense. 1050 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:49,400 Speaker 1: So I guess in that sense, then if the Chiefs 1051 00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:51,680 Speaker 1: went on Saturday night, then they that they've locked up 1052 00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:54,040 Speaker 1: the number one seed. Yeah. Yeah, if they all win, 1053 00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:56,840 Speaker 1: it'd be Chiefs one, Bills two, Bengals three. Right, So 1054 00:54:56,840 --> 00:54:59,319 Speaker 1: I guess the question is then from for Patriots to 1055 00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:01,759 Speaker 1: spend it to the pag Patriots is how much of 1056 00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:03,520 Speaker 1: a difference does it make the Buffalo to be the 1057 00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:05,440 Speaker 1: two or the three. Now you get two home games. 1058 00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:08,560 Speaker 1: I guess if they're not going to play Bill's Bengals 1059 00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:10,520 Speaker 1: Divisional round it like a neutral side of which I 1060 00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:12,839 Speaker 1: know has been thrown out there, then you get two 1061 00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:16,000 Speaker 1: home games, I suppose. But you're you're definitely playing on 1062 00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:18,360 Speaker 1: wild Card weekend if you wake up Sunday morning in 1063 00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:21,160 Speaker 1: the Chiefs won that game, which means you're playing in 1064 00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:23,759 Speaker 1: seven days in the playoffs, maybe six if they put 1065 00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:27,360 Speaker 1: you on Saturday. So I wonder how much that that impacts. 1066 00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:30,160 Speaker 1: I think they still play everybody. But if you're Josh 1067 00:55:30,160 --> 00:55:32,440 Speaker 1: Allen and Sean McDermott comes up to you before the 1068 00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:34,759 Speaker 1: game is just like, hey, you know, if this was 1069 00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:36,919 Speaker 1: a playoff game, maybe you run for that first down, 1070 00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:39,720 Speaker 1: but maybe this one you throw the ball into the stands. 1071 00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:41,200 Speaker 1: You know that sort of thing. Oh that was I mean, 1072 00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:42,439 Speaker 1: that was something I brought up earlier in the show. 1073 00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:44,480 Speaker 1: Was just Josh Allen's already a guy who is like 1074 00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:47,759 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it. As he get even worse now, 1075 00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:49,960 Speaker 1: like feeling like I need to go out and make 1076 00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:51,560 Speaker 1: a play for my guy, and you know, is this 1077 00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:54,120 Speaker 1: as he put more pressure on himself, i'd be something 1078 00:55:54,200 --> 00:55:57,680 Speaker 1: might be concerned if I was. And uh, as far 1079 00:55:57,760 --> 00:56:00,319 Speaker 1: as you know, the mood you said yesterday, it was 1080 00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:03,640 Speaker 1: you know, you mentioned Carl Davis, it's Bill's week, anything 1081 00:56:03,719 --> 00:56:06,200 Speaker 1: like that. Today there was a lot of energy at 1082 00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:08,839 Speaker 1: practice today and they were dancing to the music, they 1083 00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:14,160 Speaker 1: were moving. Guys were up for it, I think, and 1084 00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:18,440 Speaker 1: I look, I think they based off the vibe. And 1085 00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:20,319 Speaker 1: we haven't talked to anybody yet, we'll talk to them 1086 00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:22,800 Speaker 1: later today, but based off the vibe at practice the 1087 00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:25,239 Speaker 1: last couple of days, I do think that winning on 1088 00:56:25,320 --> 00:56:28,200 Speaker 1: Sunday gave this team a little bit of a jolt that, Okay, 1089 00:56:28,239 --> 00:56:30,239 Speaker 1: we're in it, like all we gotta do is win 1090 00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:32,080 Speaker 1: and we're going to be in the playoffs. And I 1091 00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:34,160 Speaker 1: think that that did give them a little bit of 1092 00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:36,400 Speaker 1: a spark that they took care of business in a 1093 00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:39,000 Speaker 1: game they needed to win, and now they are able 1094 00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:41,279 Speaker 1: to win an in Well, my biggest thing is just 1095 00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:43,720 Speaker 1: to feel like a playoff week here, because that's basically 1096 00:56:43,719 --> 00:56:45,719 Speaker 1: what it is, and it certainly feels different here in 1097 00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:47,560 Speaker 1: terms of the preparation. I mean, you've heard the guys 1098 00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:49,560 Speaker 1: talk about over years, everything kind of ramps up a 1099 00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:51,879 Speaker 1: bit when the playoffs start, it seems like what you're 1100 00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:54,640 Speaker 1: describing seems more like a playoff atmosphere. It's just it's 1101 00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:56,759 Speaker 1: hard to call upon that when you're dealing with all 1102 00:56:56,800 --> 00:56:58,800 Speaker 1: this other stuff. But I like hearing that they're getting 1103 00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:00,920 Speaker 1: ready to go and you know, bring bring it. They 1104 00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:02,400 Speaker 1: got to bring their best game of the season and 1105 00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:03,799 Speaker 1: they got to, you know, produce a game that they 1106 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:06,480 Speaker 1: probably haven't played in at least three years. And are 1107 00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:09,400 Speaker 1: there any members of the media doing extra grousing today? 1108 00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:14,600 Speaker 1: The rains always out, the rain is always tough. That's 1109 00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:17,439 Speaker 1: always a well, you can't be the guy with the umbrella, Mike, 1110 00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:19,479 Speaker 1: all right, you gotta you got, you know, a hood. 1111 00:57:19,560 --> 00:57:23,400 Speaker 1: And Stacey's from Seattle. He frowns upon that. He really does. 1112 00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:27,200 Speaker 1: I never knew, you know, I was in an ejaculate. 1113 00:57:27,600 --> 00:57:30,000 Speaker 1: If Gardy was here, he'd pitch a tent and he'd 1114 00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:34,320 Speaker 1: be sorry. I'd be pitching Wow. But he'd he'd have 1115 00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:36,520 Speaker 1: his like his ten by ten ten, and he'd have 1116 00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:39,560 Speaker 1: like a beach towel and he had to use size 1117 00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:44,000 Speaker 1: of smelling wonderfully. Yeah, yeah, no, it just keeps smelling 1118 00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:47,680 Speaker 1: it now. No umbrellas so now I want to turn 1119 00:57:47,720 --> 00:57:49,720 Speaker 1: to Bill's press commerce because we kind of watched it, 1120 00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:52,440 Speaker 1: but you were there. Um, you know, the theme was 1121 00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:55,240 Speaker 1: were doing the best we can? Yeah, but anything else 1122 00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:58,960 Speaker 1: that you took out of that. I hate that it 1123 00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:03,640 Speaker 1: comes to this circumstance, but I think when these things 1124 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:08,000 Speaker 1: have happened, not that it happens often, but you do 1125 00:58:08,120 --> 00:58:11,880 Speaker 1: see a human side to build, maybe a little bit 1126 00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:13,760 Speaker 1: more than when we get up there out of normal 1127 00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:17,520 Speaker 1: Wednesday Thursday press conference that we're just asking him questions 1128 00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:21,480 Speaker 1: about the team and about football. I thought that the 1129 00:58:21,560 --> 00:58:24,280 Speaker 1: way that he put it into perspective for himself going 1130 00:58:24,320 --> 00:58:26,920 Speaker 1: back to the was it Reggie Brown in nineteen ninety 1131 00:58:26,920 --> 00:58:31,360 Speaker 1: seven and being there, and it feels like he understands 1132 00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:35,640 Speaker 1: that this is this is from a player perspective, that 1133 00:58:35,720 --> 00:58:40,040 Speaker 1: this has to be very challenging to mentally see that 1134 00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:43,160 Speaker 1: and now go out there and play, just like Damar 1135 00:58:43,240 --> 00:58:45,160 Speaker 1: Hamlin went out there on Monday night to play a 1136 00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:49,280 Speaker 1: football game. And he did mention that Gerard Mao and 1137 00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:54,400 Speaker 1: Troy Brown have been guiding, leading him and leading the 1138 00:58:54,440 --> 00:58:56,480 Speaker 1: team a little bit more maybe this week than in 1139 00:58:56,880 --> 00:58:59,920 Speaker 1: weeks past, just because they have that that player perspective 1140 00:59:00,280 --> 00:59:04,480 Speaker 1: and coaching perspective, so he shouted them out. But I 1141 00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:07,720 Speaker 1: thought it was interesting how you see the sort of 1142 00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:10,160 Speaker 1: the wall come down a little bit for Bill and 1143 00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:12,800 Speaker 1: start to talk about you know, this is bigger than 1144 00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:16,080 Speaker 1: football and life is you know, this is just a game, 1145 00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:18,720 Speaker 1: even though it's a very competitive game.

I don't think 1319 01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:29,680 Speaker 1: that Matthew Staffords a short thing right now. And you know, 1320 01:09:29,760 --> 01:09:32,120 Speaker 1: I like Matthew staff and Fred's gonna make fun of me. 1321 01:09:32,200 --> 01:09:36,320 Speaker 1: But I think if you get him in, you can 1322 01:09:36,360 --> 01:09:40,599 Speaker 1: find out exactly what you have with with Baker. May 1323 01:09:40,840 --> 01:09:42,519 Speaker 1: guess in the last five weeks, it's like, this is 1324 01:09:42,520 --> 01:09:45,120 Speaker 1: a guy I think could really thrive in my offense. 1325 01:09:45,400 --> 01:09:47,120 Speaker 1: This is a guy that he's not a fiture. I 1326 01:09:47,120 --> 01:09:49,280 Speaker 1: guess if you're saying that Stafford's not a sure thing, 1327 01:09:49,320 --> 01:09:52,599 Speaker 1: then okay, yeah, But I mean, how can you say 1328 01:09:52,800 --> 01:09:55,080 Speaker 1: Stafford's a sure thing? Oh? I didn't know the injury 1329 01:09:55,200 --> 01:09:57,800 Speaker 1: was that like he was out for possibly out for 1330 01:09:57,840 --> 01:10:00,320 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three. Oh no, no, he's not going to 1331 01:10:00,360 --> 01:10:02,880 Speaker 1: be out for twenty twenty three. He may decide I'm 1332 01:10:02,880 --> 01:10:05,920 Speaker 1: not playing anymore. Okay, well either way like a sure thing, 1333 01:10:06,240 --> 01:10:10,760 Speaker 1: like I'm just like, I'm not saying that there's any 1334 01:10:10,760 --> 01:10:13,120 Speaker 1: reports that say that Matthew Stafford might not play next year. 1335 01:10:13,160 --> 01:10:15,920 Speaker 1: I'm saying the guys in his late thirties and has 1336 01:10:15,960 --> 01:10:18,519 Speaker 1: a spinal contusion. I think he might say, you know what, 1337 01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:20,800 Speaker 1: I got lucky, I'm getting out. So he's not a 1338 01:10:20,840 --> 01:10:25,760 Speaker 1: sure thing. So in mcvas in victors Mine, he's not sure. 1339 01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:29,400 Speaker 1: He's making me a report and I'm not reporting. That's 1340 01:10:29,400 --> 01:10:34,559 Speaker 1: another great moment from all right back here in Patriots 1341 01:10:34,600 --> 01:10:37,360 Speaker 1: Unfilter day five, five past five hundred's the A Sticket 1342 01:10:37,400 --> 01:10:40,639 Speaker 1: Outline web radio at Patriots dot com, Florio is reporting 1343 01:10:40,680 --> 01:10:44,759 Speaker 1: that the league is planning to name the Bengals Bills 1344 01:10:44,840 --> 01:10:47,840 Speaker 1: game and no contest. And my question was, is that 1345 01:10:47,960 --> 01:10:52,479 Speaker 1: different from calling it a tie? I don't know, but 1346 01:10:52,680 --> 01:10:56,120 Speaker 1: Neil says it's better than a tie, is better than 1347 01:10:56,160 --> 01:10:58,000 Speaker 1: a loss. So to me, it has to be better 1348 01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:00,880 Speaker 1: than an NA or no contest. A tie would mean 1349 01:11:00,920 --> 01:11:05,760 Speaker 1: that Baltimore can't win the division. There is there is 1350 01:11:05,960 --> 01:11:09,800 Speaker 1: uh yeah, no, if it's a no contest, they can't 1351 01:11:09,800 --> 01:11:13,360 Speaker 1: win the division either. Is that right, yeah, okay, because 1352 01:11:13,720 --> 01:11:17,800 Speaker 1: I believe the two games behind. No, Yeah, the tie 1353 01:11:17,920 --> 01:11:21,920 Speaker 1: is I feel like it's it's one and the same honestly, 1354 01:11:21,920 --> 01:11:24,200 Speaker 1: which is what's confusing to me, because a tie is 1355 01:11:24,240 --> 01:11:27,040 Speaker 1: not a when you calculate win percentage, it's wins over 1356 01:11:27,120 --> 01:11:30,120 Speaker 1: games played, and so you're still having the same amount 1357 01:11:30,160 --> 01:11:33,080 Speaker 1: of wins. Like, right, I don't Kansas City is fourteen 1358 01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:35,400 Speaker 1: and three would be better than Buffalo's thirteen in three, 1359 01:11:35,439 --> 01:11:38,000 Speaker 1: correct if it's a no contest, right, and it would 1360 01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:41,679 Speaker 1: be better than thirteen three and one correct, same thing, right, right, 1361 01:11:42,040 --> 01:11:47,160 Speaker 1: And that's how I like Baltimore. Baltimore has ten wins, correct, Yes, 1362 01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:50,040 Speaker 1: so they're ten and six, so they would finish eleven 1363 01:11:50,080 --> 01:11:57,760 Speaker 1: and six. Cincinnati would finish eleven and five if they lose, correct, correct, 1364 01:11:57,800 --> 01:11:59,760 Speaker 1: So they win the division. Eleven and five is better 1365 01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:03,480 Speaker 1: than a eleven and six even if they lose the game. Yeah, 1366 01:12:03,720 --> 01:12:07,920 Speaker 1: even if they tie the game, it's the same. Like 1367 01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:10,559 Speaker 1: from a standing standpoint, I don't know, like this is 1368 01:12:10,560 --> 01:12:12,960 Speaker 1: too much math for me. Yeah, I'm on the verge 1369 01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:15,519 Speaker 1: of you know me, you know, I just look at Paul, 1370 01:12:15,560 --> 01:12:18,560 Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, the numbers not my strong suit. Scenarios. 1371 01:12:19,280 --> 01:12:21,760 Speaker 1: I'm there for you. Numbers not my strong suit. Love 1372 01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:24,960 Speaker 1: the scenarios. End of game situation, Nathan says, first time 1373 01:12:25,080 --> 01:12:27,439 Speaker 1: for me watching you guys on video, and I just 1374 01:12:27,479 --> 01:12:30,519 Speaker 1: wanted to point out how completely appropriate it is that 1375 01:12:30,600 --> 01:12:33,559 Speaker 1: Fred is not facing Paul. It makes the shouting matches 1376 01:12:33,600 --> 01:12:36,479 Speaker 1: so much more enjoyable. To imagine Fred just grinning while 1377 01:12:36,479 --> 01:12:40,360 Speaker 1: Paul yells at the side of his face. That is 1378 01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:42,720 Speaker 1: what happens. You gotta get the triangulation down, so if 1379 01:12:42,720 --> 01:12:45,960 Speaker 1: you can see it, like picture friend Paul yelling at Fred, 1380 01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:50,720 Speaker 1: Fred giving me like these eyes, look as Paul is 1381 01:12:50,880 --> 01:12:54,160 Speaker 1: yelling into his right ear right. Since we're nearing the 1382 01:12:54,240 --> 01:12:56,360 Speaker 1: end of the season and the Patriots supposedly have the 1383 01:12:56,479 --> 01:12:58,840 Speaker 1: third most cap space in the league this coming year, 1384 01:12:59,400 --> 01:13:03,719 Speaker 1: are there any particular free agency would Yeah, that number 1385 01:13:03,840 --> 01:13:08,000 Speaker 1: is fungible by the mcguel. I think the mcguel is 1386 01:13:08,040 --> 01:13:10,920 Speaker 1: thirty seven to forty one million, which I don't know 1387 01:13:10,920 --> 01:13:14,160 Speaker 1: where There's been things out there that they have like 1388 01:13:14,200 --> 01:13:16,519 Speaker 1: one hundred million in cap spaceres which is not even 1389 01:13:16,520 --> 01:13:18,880 Speaker 1: close to accurate. I don't know. I don't really know, 1390 01:13:19,040 --> 01:13:21,240 Speaker 1: but I go by mcguel as well, and because I 1391 01:13:21,240 --> 01:13:24,679 Speaker 1: think around between thirty five and forty million. Barton Poland 1392 01:13:25,120 --> 01:13:27,600 Speaker 1: says one thing is certain for Sunday, it will be 1393 01:13:27,680 --> 01:13:30,679 Speaker 1: a true throwback game for the Patriots once again. Everyone 1394 01:13:30,720 --> 01:13:35,759 Speaker 1: will be rooting for us to lose. That's probably accurate. Yeah, probably. 1395 01:13:35,960 --> 01:13:38,120 Speaker 1: It's a tough spot. It's a tough spot. I mean, 1396 01:13:38,160 --> 01:13:40,240 Speaker 1: how do you know? And then if you win, then 1397 01:13:40,360 --> 01:13:43,599 Speaker 1: then we're mean you're the heel and you're like celebrating. Yeah, 1398 01:13:43,640 --> 01:13:47,640 Speaker 1: it's like a heel turn in in a wwe um. 1399 01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:50,479 Speaker 1: James Pettigrew, the most interesting Patriots fan of the world, 1400 01:13:50,520 --> 01:13:54,240 Speaker 1: wants to know y Zoe wears shades on TV. He 1401 01:13:54,360 --> 01:13:56,760 Speaker 1: has like a got an eye issue and the television 1402 01:13:56,840 --> 01:13:58,960 Speaker 1: lights really bug them. But you're also you're calling into 1403 01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:01,559 Speaker 1: this show asking us about Zoe. Why, well he is 1404 01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:04,040 Speaker 1: on the backgrounds He's right there. I see Zoe in 1405 01:14:04,040 --> 01:14:12,559 Speaker 1: the background. Yeah. Um, let's see Anthony. Quick question. If 1406 01:14:12,560 --> 01:14:17,200 Speaker 1: they determined Buffalo Cincinnati is a no contest and Kansas 1407 01:14:17,240 --> 01:14:20,040 Speaker 1: City when Saturday Buffalo has nothing to play for Sunday, 1408 01:14:20,080 --> 01:14:24,600 Speaker 1: correct break between Cincinnati and Buffalo without the head to 1409 01:14:24,680 --> 01:14:30,200 Speaker 1: head Cincinnati based on what oh no, excuse me? If 1410 01:14:30,240 --> 01:14:33,240 Speaker 1: Buffalo wins and beats the Patriots. They beat the two seeds, 1411 01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:35,320 Speaker 1: it Buffalo does. But if they lose, who would be 1412 01:14:35,360 --> 01:14:39,000 Speaker 1: the two seeds Cincinnati based on depending on what happens 1413 01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:42,760 Speaker 1: with Cincinnati Baltimore. So no, But if they tie and 1414 01:14:42,840 --> 01:14:45,559 Speaker 1: they don't play like everybody says, Cincinnati would be tied 1415 01:14:45,600 --> 01:14:48,080 Speaker 1: over Buffalo because they would have beaten them. Right, So 1416 01:14:48,120 --> 01:14:52,120 Speaker 1: I believe that the next tie breaker is then conference record, 1417 01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:55,280 Speaker 1: which I think if Cincinnati takes care of BIZ, they 1418 01:14:55,439 --> 01:14:58,120 Speaker 1: would have. I'm pretty positive that that's what it is. 1419 01:14:58,160 --> 01:15:00,559 Speaker 1: But we're getting into a lot of permutations at this point. 1420 01:15:00,600 --> 01:15:04,360 Speaker 1: I mean, it sounds right. Let mean, let me figure 1421 01:15:04,360 --> 01:15:07,160 Speaker 1: it out for it. Let's get back to the phones. 1422 01:15:07,360 --> 01:15:09,840 Speaker 1: We'll go to Todd North Carolina or who's hung on? 1423 01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:14,639 Speaker 1: What's up? Todd? Todd? Hey, good, good afternoon, gentlemen. Todd. 1424 01:15:14,720 --> 01:15:16,360 Speaker 1: So I want to actually talk about the game, because 1425 01:15:16,360 --> 01:15:18,360 Speaker 1: I know we've been talking a little bit of hypothetical 1426 01:15:18,680 --> 01:15:23,400 Speaker 1: playoffs and all this other stuff. Well, there's our offense 1427 01:15:23,479 --> 01:15:26,640 Speaker 1: need to do in order to win this game. I 1428 01:15:26,680 --> 01:15:32,479 Speaker 1: think we need four with two touchdowns and two field goals. 1429 01:15:32,560 --> 01:15:35,040 Speaker 1: That's what I want. The same drive I might. I mean, 1430 01:15:35,080 --> 01:15:36,839 Speaker 1: I'm with you on four. I think it's four touchdowns, 1431 01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:40,160 Speaker 1: so I think the Buffalo has the tiebreaker ever since Finati. Okay, 1432 01:15:40,240 --> 01:15:43,960 Speaker 1: so if Buffalo, because they would have the same conference record. 1433 01:15:44,040 --> 01:15:46,280 Speaker 1: So I got lost at that point. If Buffalo and 1434 01:15:46,400 --> 01:15:49,720 Speaker 1: Cincinnati both lose, and Buffalo is the two seed. If 1435 01:15:49,720 --> 01:15:52,920 Speaker 1: they both win, Buffalo is the two seed. Okay, Okay, 1436 01:15:53,200 --> 01:15:58,840 Speaker 1: back to the question. Sorry, Todd, Todd drive, Yeah, I 1437 01:15:58,840 --> 01:16:01,240 Speaker 1: don't know, Todd. I think I think. I just think 1438 01:16:01,240 --> 01:16:03,720 Speaker 1: you need four touchdowns from the offense. Four touchdowns. I 1439 01:16:03,760 --> 01:16:05,120 Speaker 1: think if we can get it. I think if we 1440 01:16:05,120 --> 01:16:07,760 Speaker 1: can get to twenty points, I think we can and 1441 01:16:07,960 --> 01:16:10,160 Speaker 1: sustained drives. I mean I don't I don't mean like 1442 01:16:10,200 --> 01:16:11,840 Speaker 1: you guys have been talking about, well, does this an 1443 01:16:11,840 --> 01:16:14,559 Speaker 1: offense who cares what the drives look like? Yeah? I 1444 01:16:14,560 --> 01:16:18,559 Speaker 1: think he's talking about time and possession of the field. Yes, 1445 01:16:18,720 --> 01:16:21,120 Speaker 1: if you have like fifteen play drive, then maybe you can. 1446 01:16:21,360 --> 01:16:24,040 Speaker 1: It's the old like what they did against highly. I 1447 01:16:24,080 --> 01:16:27,160 Speaker 1: think more than twenty points, I do. I mean they 1448 01:16:27,240 --> 01:16:29,680 Speaker 1: had seventeen after the first three possessions of the last game, 1449 01:16:29,800 --> 01:16:32,840 Speaker 1: so twenty points and a defensive touchdown, so we're at 1450 01:16:32,840 --> 01:16:37,920 Speaker 1: twenty seven. Maybe maybe that's different. But you can't plan 1451 01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:39,920 Speaker 1: for that, and I think you probably have to plan 1452 01:16:40,040 --> 01:16:42,879 Speaker 1: not for it because it's happened so much like eventually 1453 01:16:42,920 --> 01:16:46,680 Speaker 1: the well runs drive. Yeah, progressions of the mean, Yeah, 1454 01:16:47,120 --> 01:16:51,040 Speaker 1: basically we're looking at touchdown open to make so well, 1455 01:16:51,120 --> 01:16:53,680 Speaker 1: I just think, yeah, whatever however you get there, I 1456 01:16:53,760 --> 01:16:55,720 Speaker 1: think you're gonna need to mid to high twenties to 1457 01:16:55,760 --> 01:16:59,559 Speaker 1: be in the game. Yeah, right, so let's at least, okay, 1458 01:16:59,600 --> 01:17:02,280 Speaker 1: three shones and the two field goals and kind of 1459 01:17:02,280 --> 01:17:10,400 Speaker 1: minimum that's okay, maybe like four safeties all right, underrated 1460 01:17:10,439 --> 01:17:13,919 Speaker 1: Bay And that Thursday night game was Josh Allen tackling 1461 01:17:13,960 --> 01:17:17,400 Speaker 1: Matthew Judon when he's on the strip sac because Matthew 1462 01:17:17,439 --> 01:17:19,760 Speaker 1: Judon got the ball and he was right. I don't 1463 01:17:19,760 --> 01:17:21,920 Speaker 1: know know if he would have made to the end zone, 1464 01:17:21,960 --> 01:17:23,599 Speaker 1: but he would have at least put them in plus 1465 01:17:23,720 --> 01:17:27,000 Speaker 1: territory maybe, and Josh Allen tackled him for no game, 1466 01:17:27,080 --> 01:17:29,559 Speaker 1: which was low key a very very big play in 1467 01:17:29,600 --> 01:17:32,000 Speaker 1: that game's a big play overall. It's just, I mean, 1468 01:17:32,080 --> 01:17:33,800 Speaker 1: one of the only turnovers they've gotten out of these 1469 01:17:33,800 --> 01:17:35,960 Speaker 1: guys in yes, some memory, it's just I mean it 1470 01:17:36,040 --> 01:17:37,240 Speaker 1: was almost one of the questions I was going to 1471 01:17:37,320 --> 01:17:40,040 Speaker 1: ask in the round table, and I felt kind of like, Mum, 1472 01:17:40,560 --> 01:17:42,320 Speaker 1: should we put that in the game that they should 1473 01:17:42,360 --> 01:17:44,800 Speaker 1: have won because they should have had another defensive score. Yes, 1474 01:17:46,240 --> 01:17:48,559 Speaker 1: you know they're they're one and four against these guys. 1475 01:17:48,880 --> 01:17:51,720 Speaker 1: I mean they basically there point totals almost double um, 1476 01:17:51,960 --> 01:17:55,600 Speaker 1: no interceptions from Josh Allen that one fumble, Just like 1477 01:17:55,640 --> 01:17:57,400 Speaker 1: what do you do at this point? Like, I mean, 1478 01:17:57,760 --> 01:17:59,479 Speaker 1: you know, it's like Evan, how many times have you 1479 01:17:59,479 --> 01:18:01,720 Speaker 1: written a d offensive? Here's what the Patriots need to 1480 01:18:01,720 --> 01:18:04,280 Speaker 1: do against Josh Allen in this game? Yep, And they like, 1481 01:18:04,320 --> 01:18:05,559 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Do you just running out 1482 01:18:05,560 --> 01:18:07,439 Speaker 1: of like they tried it all? Like it just it 1483 01:18:07,520 --> 01:18:09,880 Speaker 1: just comes down to on this particular day, we have 1484 01:18:09,960 --> 01:18:11,760 Speaker 1: to outplay them and we have to hope that he's 1485 01:18:11,800 --> 01:18:14,519 Speaker 1: not on in nails and just thrown it all over 1486 01:18:14,560 --> 01:18:16,760 Speaker 1: the yard and running like a man possessed, like you know. Yeah, 1487 01:18:16,920 --> 01:18:19,120 Speaker 1: the opening drive for the Bills in the last game, 1488 01:18:19,400 --> 01:18:22,400 Speaker 1: the very first snap, they ran an inverted cover two 1489 01:18:22,479 --> 01:18:24,720 Speaker 1: simulated pressure. That's a lot of big words to just 1490 01:18:24,760 --> 01:18:27,240 Speaker 1: say that they gave up a five yard game right, 1491 01:18:27,360 --> 01:18:31,280 Speaker 1: like it just they ran a play that had all 1492 01:18:31,360 --> 01:18:34,320 Speaker 1: the bells and whistles that at their disposal. They dropped 1493 01:18:34,320 --> 01:18:35,960 Speaker 1: a guy off the line, They blitzed the guy up 1494 01:18:36,000 --> 01:18:38,360 Speaker 1: the middle, they took the corners on the outside, and 1495 01:18:38,400 --> 01:18:40,640 Speaker 1: they inverted them into the too high still and like 1496 01:18:40,920 --> 01:18:43,479 Speaker 1: all this, they were spinning the dial all over the place. 1497 01:18:43,479 --> 01:18:46,960 Speaker 1: And I think against the quarterback like a Teddy Bridgewater 1498 01:18:47,040 --> 01:18:48,960 Speaker 1: or some of the quarterbacks that they've eaten this year, 1499 01:18:49,240 --> 01:18:51,760 Speaker 1: when you just throw the kitchen sink of information at 1500 01:18:51,800 --> 01:18:54,639 Speaker 1: those guys, it can overwhelm them and you can win 1501 01:18:54,720 --> 01:18:57,479 Speaker 1: that way. But against a guy like Josh Allen, I 1502 01:18:57,479 --> 01:19:00,760 Speaker 1: think ultimately it does catch him a few times. But 1503 01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:02,800 Speaker 1: I think what ultimately happens is he's just like, you 1504 01:19:02,800 --> 01:19:04,840 Speaker 1: know what, I'm just better than this, So like I'm 1505 01:19:04,880 --> 01:19:07,040 Speaker 1: just gonna run around and I'm gonna make a play, right, 1506 01:19:07,479 --> 01:19:09,840 Speaker 1: And he doesn't really get too caught up in oh, 1507 01:19:09,960 --> 01:19:12,920 Speaker 1: I gotta read this coverage and there they trapping me here, 1508 01:19:12,800 --> 01:19:15,160 Speaker 1: or they actually running this and like all this other stuff. 1509 01:19:15,360 --> 01:19:17,080 Speaker 1: He's just like, well, I have a laser, so I'm 1510 01:19:17,080 --> 01:19:18,880 Speaker 1: just gonna throw it there anyway, and if not, I'll 1511 01:19:18,920 --> 01:19:22,000 Speaker 1: just run over somebody. And the first down, Yeah, Sean's 1512 01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:30,200 Speaker 1: in New York. Hey, Sean, Sean, Sean, Sean, I wonder 1513 01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:36,080 Speaker 1: if I wonder if I was Sean McDermott coach this 1514 01:19:36,120 --> 01:19:41,439 Speaker 1: game this weekend? Uh, Claire, right game? Hello everyone, Hello 1515 01:19:41,520 --> 01:19:44,559 Speaker 1: mare In, Hello Claire um. With Derek Carr sitting out, 1516 01:19:45,120 --> 01:19:47,519 Speaker 1: I got a little curious of what you would prefer 1517 01:19:47,720 --> 01:19:51,479 Speaker 1: if there were options for next season at quarterback? So 1518 01:19:51,560 --> 01:19:55,439 Speaker 1: would you rather Mac Jones? But with someone decent at OC? 1519 01:19:56,800 --> 01:20:01,320 Speaker 1: Mac Jones regardless of who was at OC. Patriots draft 1520 01:20:01,360 --> 01:20:04,880 Speaker 1: a high pit quarterback and a new OC, and if so, 1521 01:20:05,120 --> 01:20:09,639 Speaker 1: we keep or trade Mac, bring in a veteran, insert 1522 01:20:09,720 --> 01:20:12,160 Speaker 1: one of the reasonable choice and someone knew at OC, 1523 01:20:12,880 --> 01:20:15,200 Speaker 1: and if so, keep or trade Mac. I just think Mac. 1524 01:20:15,680 --> 01:20:21,120 Speaker 1: That's Mac for next year my opinion. Yeah, I mean, 1525 01:20:21,680 --> 01:20:25,120 Speaker 1: without knowing specifics, I would say Mac in a new OC. Yeah, 1526 01:20:25,160 --> 01:20:27,679 Speaker 1: I don't think you're really talking about moving on till 1527 01:20:27,760 --> 01:20:30,880 Speaker 1: Mac till at least year four, and even then probably 1528 01:20:31,760 --> 01:20:33,840 Speaker 1: not till year five when maybe you didn't pick up 1529 01:20:33,840 --> 01:20:36,200 Speaker 1: the fifth year option because it doesn't turn around. Yeah. Yeah, 1530 01:20:36,200 --> 01:20:38,719 Speaker 1: I would agree, And I've been, you know, somewhat critical, 1531 01:20:38,800 --> 01:20:41,560 Speaker 1: but I would have to say that this isn't a 1532 01:20:41,760 --> 01:20:44,680 Speaker 1: typical year two. For any young quarterback to have to 1533 01:20:44,760 --> 01:20:46,960 Speaker 1: deal with all the stuff that he had to deal with, 1534 01:20:47,040 --> 01:20:48,640 Speaker 1: I don't think he handled it well. I've been on 1535 01:20:48,720 --> 01:20:50,400 Speaker 1: record as saying that many times. I don't have to 1536 01:20:50,439 --> 01:20:54,280 Speaker 1: repeat it, but I do think you'd have to be 1537 01:20:54,640 --> 01:20:59,559 Speaker 1: catastrophically bad, like Zach Wilson bad to not deserve a 1538 01:20:59,600 --> 01:21:03,000 Speaker 1: third year UM. And you know, it sounds like Wilson's 1539 01:21:03,040 --> 01:21:06,080 Speaker 1: probably gonna get one too, um as bad as he's been, 1540 01:21:06,160 --> 01:21:10,160 Speaker 1: but based on based on the abnormalities of the way 1541 01:21:10,200 --> 01:21:11,840 Speaker 1: the offense was set up this year, I don't know 1542 01:21:11,840 --> 01:21:15,000 Speaker 1: how you can justify unless you get a home run 1543 01:21:15,320 --> 01:21:17,240 Speaker 1: falls in your lap. Yeah, that's the tough part in 1544 01:21:17,240 --> 01:21:19,200 Speaker 1: this draft is that Bryce Young and c J. Stroud 1545 01:21:19,240 --> 01:21:21,200 Speaker 1: are gonna be one and two. I would be shocked 1546 01:21:21,200 --> 01:21:24,439 Speaker 1: if they're not. And if you're picking eighteenth, then that's 1547 01:21:24,439 --> 01:21:27,759 Speaker 1: a really steep trade up, probably an impossible trade up honestly, 1548 01:21:28,040 --> 01:21:29,840 Speaker 1: to get all the way up to top two. And 1549 01:21:29,880 --> 01:21:32,080 Speaker 1: then like you're talking about I don't know Will Levis 1550 01:21:32,120 --> 01:21:34,439 Speaker 1: from Kentucky, Like, I don't think that that's changing your 1551 01:21:34,840 --> 01:21:39,400 Speaker 1: your team, and also Will leave us. It is how 1552 01:21:39,760 --> 01:21:41,120 Speaker 1: you know me, Paul. We've started to do, like the 1553 01:21:41,200 --> 01:21:50,880 Speaker 1: draft things of the week, we just like Noah bug a. Yeah, 1554 01:21:50,920 --> 01:21:53,240 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be what Texans Colts are gonna have 1555 01:21:53,240 --> 01:21:55,479 Speaker 1: those top two picks and they both need quarterbacks. So 1556 01:21:55,560 --> 01:21:57,439 Speaker 1: if you're gonna try to steal one of those guys, 1557 01:21:57,439 --> 01:21:59,680 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to gig a king's ransom together. What 1558 01:21:59,760 --> 01:22:02,360 Speaker 1: I would suggesting if something fell in your lap, it wasn't. 1559 01:22:02,760 --> 01:22:04,800 Speaker 1: You're right, you're not gonna have something fall in your 1560 01:22:04,840 --> 01:22:07,960 Speaker 1: lap in the draft. Um, but you know, maybe someone 1561 01:22:08,000 --> 01:22:11,920 Speaker 1: that you don't anticipate being available, you know, as a 1562 01:22:12,000 --> 01:22:14,559 Speaker 1: veteran quarterback. And I'm not saying Arred Carr. I'm saying 1563 01:22:14,640 --> 01:22:17,200 Speaker 1: someone you know of a higher stature and all of 1564 01:22:17,240 --> 01:22:20,840 Speaker 1: a sudden you can get him. Like weird things happen. 1565 01:22:20,960 --> 01:22:24,280 Speaker 1: You just never know the guy you know who's going 1566 01:22:24,360 --> 01:22:27,120 Speaker 1: to be the next guy who's completely disgruntled with their 1567 01:22:27,160 --> 01:22:29,120 Speaker 1: team and just wants out and he can play. Like 1568 01:22:29,160 --> 01:22:31,519 Speaker 1: at what point, let's just say, I don't know, I 1569 01:22:31,520 --> 01:22:33,640 Speaker 1: don't know, Joe Burrow, do you think Aaron Rodgers is 1570 01:22:33,680 --> 01:22:37,920 Speaker 1: going to stay with the Packers? Yeah? Yeah, So would 1571 01:22:37,920 --> 01:22:40,560 Speaker 1: they want to trade Jordan Love and would you be interested? 1572 01:22:40,920 --> 01:22:43,160 Speaker 1: I think they should at some point. I mean I wouldn't, 1573 01:22:43,280 --> 01:22:45,080 Speaker 1: but I could see why some people would. I mean, 1574 01:22:45,120 --> 01:22:46,639 Speaker 1: how much do they like them? I mean I think 1575 01:22:46,640 --> 01:22:49,000 Speaker 1: that's a question. If they you know, we like them, 1576 01:22:49,080 --> 01:22:51,080 Speaker 1: then I think keep around. But I don't know. It 1577 01:22:51,080 --> 01:22:56,320 Speaker 1: doesn't feel kind of like the Patriots get something for 1578 01:22:56,479 --> 01:22:58,760 Speaker 1: him while we can. He's going into year four, right, 1579 01:22:58,880 --> 01:23:01,000 Speaker 1: so he's on that and he's, well he was the 1580 01:23:01,040 --> 01:23:04,240 Speaker 1: first round. I don't know. I think they already have 1581 01:23:04,280 --> 01:23:06,080 Speaker 1: to decide on that, right, I don't know. This is 1582 01:23:06,120 --> 01:23:08,519 Speaker 1: his fourth year. I know he's I think next year 1583 01:23:09,560 --> 01:23:14,200 Speaker 1: they have to decide what they do. No, I would 1584 01:23:14,240 --> 01:23:15,880 Speaker 1: pick it up, yeah, if I mean, if you think 1585 01:23:15,920 --> 01:23:18,000 Speaker 1: he's any good, I mean they know what they think 1586 01:23:18,000 --> 01:23:20,439 Speaker 1: of him. Yeah, like Laflor has had him for three years. 1587 01:23:20,920 --> 01:23:22,559 Speaker 1: If you think he's any good, you pick it up 1588 01:23:22,560 --> 01:23:24,479 Speaker 1: and you say, well, I'll push that off his punk 1589 01:23:24,800 --> 01:23:27,320 Speaker 1: that decision as long as I can. Like a lot 1590 01:23:27,360 --> 01:23:29,920 Speaker 1: of people thought this was it for Aaron Rodgers. Now 1591 01:23:29,960 --> 01:23:31,479 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the defense is playing out of 1592 01:23:31,520 --> 01:23:33,880 Speaker 1: its mind and he's rejuvenated. He actually looked like he 1593 01:23:33,920 --> 01:23:36,320 Speaker 1: cared the other day when they won. And they're gonna 1594 01:23:36,320 --> 01:23:37,760 Speaker 1: go to the playoffs. I'll have to was win a 1595 01:23:37,800 --> 01:23:41,000 Speaker 1: game Sunday night, and they're in so I think he'll 1596 01:23:41,040 --> 01:23:45,639 Speaker 1: be back. Um Gary writes in Fred, I know you'll remember, 1597 01:23:45,680 --> 01:23:47,880 Speaker 1: even if the other guys don't. I was listening to 1598 01:23:47,880 --> 01:23:51,240 Speaker 1: the preseason game when Darryl Stingley went down. I was 1599 01:23:51,280 --> 01:23:53,040 Speaker 1: white as it goes, sick to my stomach, and in 1600 01:23:53,120 --> 01:23:56,400 Speaker 1: suspended animation for hours. Just like Monday night. His life 1601 01:23:56,439 --> 01:23:58,599 Speaker 1: was in danger in a different way, but just the same. 1602 01:23:58,880 --> 01:24:01,240 Speaker 1: It's a Patriots moment I'll never forget, along with the 1603 01:24:01,360 --> 01:24:03,800 Speaker 1: night he returned to Foxboro and was in the press 1604 01:24:03,840 --> 01:24:06,719 Speaker 1: box before the game. I remember that. Yeah, really, well, 1605 01:24:07,439 --> 01:24:09,559 Speaker 1: that's that's an interesting example though. I mean, I know, 1606 01:24:09,800 --> 01:24:12,280 Speaker 1: you know the Tehigans stuff. I mean, but that was 1607 01:24:12,320 --> 01:24:14,560 Speaker 1: a play right where it was. I mean, that was 1608 01:24:14,600 --> 01:24:17,120 Speaker 1: a vicious hit that a US right like. Yeah, and 1609 01:24:17,360 --> 01:24:19,160 Speaker 1: but I mean that was kind of, I want to say, 1610 01:24:19,160 --> 01:24:20,679 Speaker 1: part for the course in the league at that point, 1611 01:24:20,720 --> 01:24:23,120 Speaker 1: but it was certainly a lot more hitting guys over 1612 01:24:23,160 --> 01:24:26,519 Speaker 1: the middle, clothes lining. I'm like that going high that 1613 01:24:26,640 --> 01:24:30,160 Speaker 1: was not called the penalty back in those days. You know, 1614 01:24:30,200 --> 01:24:32,360 Speaker 1: I don't think there wasn't a flag on that. I 1615 01:24:32,400 --> 01:24:34,000 Speaker 1: don't think so. But I don't know. I don't think 1616 01:24:34,040 --> 01:24:38,560 Speaker 1: there was. You know, I don't think there was. Um 1617 01:24:39,720 --> 01:24:44,080 Speaker 1: Andrew says, in the situation where Casey wins on Saturday 1618 01:24:44,640 --> 01:24:47,479 Speaker 1: and the Bills cannot win the number one seed, assuming 1619 01:24:47,520 --> 01:24:50,840 Speaker 1: you were Buffalo, how would you rank your potential wildcard 1620 01:24:50,840 --> 01:24:54,439 Speaker 1: opponents from most wanna play to least want to play, 1621 01:24:55,120 --> 01:25:02,920 Speaker 1: use Pittsburgh versus Miami or verse ball Baltimore without Lamar Jackson. Well, 1622 01:25:03,680 --> 01:25:06,519 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean it is a little tempting with Baltimore, 1623 01:25:06,520 --> 01:25:07,840 Speaker 1: but I would just say a team that you play 1624 01:25:07,880 --> 01:25:10,080 Speaker 1: twice a year, that you've owned, I mean that you know, 1625 01:25:10,120 --> 01:25:12,280 Speaker 1: you're familiar with that. I think it would be my 1626 01:25:12,360 --> 01:25:16,519 Speaker 1: most desirable option. Pittsburgh. The Patriots would be close. I mean, 1627 01:25:16,560 --> 01:25:19,200 Speaker 1: they're similar. It's it's it's some good as Rogers. Yeah, 1628 01:25:19,200 --> 01:25:21,840 Speaker 1: and you and you can't say Baltimore without Lamar Jackson 1629 01:25:21,840 --> 01:25:23,640 Speaker 1: because that's not on the table. You don't know that. 1630 01:25:24,600 --> 01:25:26,960 Speaker 1: I would still Maybe it's just the Homer in me, 1631 01:25:27,040 --> 01:25:29,280 Speaker 1: but I still lean Pittsburgh. Just oh yeah, me too. 1632 01:25:29,360 --> 01:25:31,639 Speaker 1: I just I don't know. I I think there's something 1633 01:25:32,800 --> 01:25:35,880 Speaker 1: still very like they're obviously something's missing from this team. Too, 1634 01:25:35,920 --> 01:25:38,360 Speaker 1: But I just don't think Pittsburgh is Well, here's the thing. 1635 01:25:39,760 --> 01:25:41,640 Speaker 1: I've said this a million times this year. There's only 1636 01:25:41,680 --> 01:25:45,240 Speaker 1: one way the Patriots have to win. Pittsburgh is very similar. 1637 01:25:45,320 --> 01:25:47,559 Speaker 1: That's the only way they can win is seventeen thirteen, 1638 01:25:47,720 --> 01:25:50,320 Speaker 1: sixteen fourteen, Like, that's the game that they win. So 1639 01:25:50,680 --> 01:25:53,200 Speaker 1: I will take the Patriot's chances in that rock fight. 1640 01:25:54,520 --> 01:25:56,400 Speaker 1: You know, I think the Patriots are better in that 1641 01:25:56,520 --> 01:25:59,440 Speaker 1: kind of a game. I think they're better suited than Pittsburgh. 1642 01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:03,160 Speaker 1: Don't think Pittsburgh can score. If I'm Buffalo, I think 1643 01:26:03,160 --> 01:26:06,000 Speaker 1: the Patriots are a little bit better than Pittsburgh. Yeah, 1644 01:26:06,040 --> 01:26:09,360 Speaker 1: I'd rather play Pittsburgh than the Patriots. Another question I 1645 01:26:09,600 --> 01:26:12,320 Speaker 1: was putting the round table was the Jets and the 1646 01:26:12,439 --> 01:26:14,760 Speaker 1: Dolphins both beat the Bills at home this year, and 1647 01:26:14,800 --> 01:26:17,840 Speaker 1: then both of them also had one score games in 1648 01:26:17,880 --> 01:26:21,200 Speaker 1: Buffalo this year and no circumstances around. But why can't 1649 01:26:21,200 --> 01:26:22,800 Speaker 1: the Patriots have a close game like that? Like every 1650 01:26:22,840 --> 01:26:24,839 Speaker 1: game they kind of lost year has been two plus scores, 1651 01:26:25,200 --> 01:26:27,760 Speaker 1: double digit losses. Like why are those teams able to 1652 01:26:28,439 --> 01:26:31,280 Speaker 1: not only beat Buffalo at home and hold serve but 1653 01:26:31,439 --> 01:26:34,080 Speaker 1: make things interesting on the road too? Like it's just 1654 01:26:34,640 --> 01:26:38,800 Speaker 1: why why are the Patriots feel like they Miami full strength? Right? 1655 01:26:38,840 --> 01:26:41,559 Speaker 1: So their offense is much better than the Patriots offense 1656 01:26:41,600 --> 01:26:43,920 Speaker 1: at full strengths. I think that's for them. I would 1657 01:26:43,920 --> 01:26:46,240 Speaker 1: say that's they can keep up on the scoreboard with 1658 01:26:46,640 --> 01:26:50,680 Speaker 1: two uh. I think for the Jets, the Bills are 1659 01:26:50,680 --> 01:26:52,920 Speaker 1: a bad matchup. For the Patriots, They're just a bad 1660 01:26:52,960 --> 01:26:54,840 Speaker 1: matchup and it's like, how does he keep having three 1661 01:26:54,880 --> 01:26:56,479 Speaker 1: years in a row? Like we're a we did not 1662 01:26:56,720 --> 01:26:58,439 Speaker 1: We'll just we'll run it back match like, you know, 1663 01:26:58,479 --> 01:27:00,680 Speaker 1: the Jets have a lot more teams. I'd say on 1664 01:27:00,760 --> 01:27:03,040 Speaker 1: defense still, like I think the Patriots have made strides 1665 01:27:03,040 --> 01:27:05,760 Speaker 1: in that department, but they still aren't as fast as 1666 01:27:05,880 --> 01:27:08,000 Speaker 1: as a team like the Jets. The Jets are also 1667 01:27:08,000 --> 01:27:10,360 Speaker 1: a really good zone team, which I think helps when 1668 01:27:10,360 --> 01:27:13,960 Speaker 1: you play man against Buffalo, they just they tread man. 1669 01:27:14,400 --> 01:27:17,800 Speaker 1: Alan is so mobile and the receivers are tough to 1670 01:27:17,840 --> 01:27:19,920 Speaker 1: cover and man digs like how do you cover it? 1671 01:27:20,000 --> 01:27:22,640 Speaker 1: Stefond digs for four quarters in man coverage. So I 1672 01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:24,559 Speaker 1: think that that's a big part of it too. But 1673 01:27:24,800 --> 01:27:26,920 Speaker 1: I think for Miami it's it's that they could keep 1674 01:27:27,000 --> 01:27:31,800 Speaker 1: up with them on the scoreboard. All right, um, I 1675 01:27:31,840 --> 01:27:35,800 Speaker 1: guess it's that time of the week. Huh really really yeah, 1676 01:27:36,280 --> 01:27:38,680 Speaker 1: take our time early. We won't we won't rush it 1677 01:27:38,800 --> 01:27:40,760 Speaker 1: this week. We want to hear about the standings though. Yeah. 1678 01:27:41,240 --> 01:27:46,400 Speaker 1: Uh well I was not prepared for this. Okay, Well, 1679 01:27:46,720 --> 01:27:51,080 Speaker 1: as I previewed a very good week for everybody. Alex 1680 01:27:52,360 --> 01:27:56,840 Speaker 1: was the best. Wow at thirteen and two. You might 1681 01:27:56,880 --> 01:28:01,639 Speaker 1: notice this strange number of games. I didn't award anybody 1682 01:28:01,640 --> 01:28:05,880 Speaker 1: the victory for the Buffalo Cincinnati game, but Alex thirteen 1683 01:28:05,880 --> 01:28:15,400 Speaker 1: and two, Mike, Evan, Paul twelve and three, Fred eleven 1684 01:28:15,400 --> 01:28:18,760 Speaker 1: and four. Like, really, I like this is a really 1685 01:28:18,760 --> 01:28:22,160 Speaker 1: good week. Now with the spread not as good for 1686 01:28:22,200 --> 01:28:26,240 Speaker 1: anybody except for Evan nine and six, make a good 1687 01:28:26,280 --> 01:28:29,200 Speaker 1: solid week Alex eight and seven, Mike eight and seven, 1688 01:28:29,240 --> 01:28:37,639 Speaker 1: Paul seven and eight, Fred four and eleven. Oh my god, 1689 01:28:38,560 --> 01:28:43,760 Speaker 1: so season standings, Uh, Mike sixty four eighty nine and two, 1690 01:28:44,200 --> 01:28:46,879 Speaker 1: One sixty three ninety and two. We had two different 1691 01:28:46,920 --> 01:28:51,160 Speaker 1: and they somehow he cannot he cannot Fred one fifty 1692 01:28:51,160 --> 01:28:55,200 Speaker 1: four ninety nine and two. Evan remains with the best 1693 01:28:55,360 --> 01:28:58,439 Speaker 1: overall winning percentage at one oh three fifty five and one. 1694 01:28:58,479 --> 01:29:00,560 Speaker 1: That's a six fifty one winning percent enage ahead of 1695 01:29:00,600 --> 01:29:03,240 Speaker 1: my six forty seven and Alex is eighty seven and 1696 01:29:03,320 --> 01:29:06,880 Speaker 1: forty nine, which is a six forty winning percentage. Pause 1697 01:29:06,960 --> 01:29:12,000 Speaker 1: coming up on Don Shulam the spread, kick him off 1698 01:29:12,040 --> 01:29:14,280 Speaker 1: the show before he gets there. It's just ridiculous. One 1699 01:29:14,560 --> 01:29:17,559 Speaker 1: forty five, one oh six and four five seventy six 1700 01:29:17,600 --> 01:29:20,120 Speaker 1: winning percentage. Why didn't I bet one hundred parts in 1701 01:29:20,200 --> 01:29:23,400 Speaker 1: every game? Because you can't because because I'd be fired. 1702 01:29:23,600 --> 01:29:25,800 Speaker 1: But that would be okay because I'd have the money 1703 01:29:26,520 --> 01:29:30,639 Speaker 1: a lot more than Mike one twenty six, one twenty 1704 01:29:30,640 --> 01:29:34,360 Speaker 1: five and four, one game over Fred one twelve, one 1705 01:29:34,520 --> 01:29:39,599 Speaker 1: thirty nine and four. Evan solid eighty seven eighty seventy 1706 01:29:39,640 --> 01:29:42,040 Speaker 1: six and three. You're making money, they can making money 1707 01:29:42,120 --> 01:29:45,719 Speaker 1: making money five thirteen winning percentage, Alex sixty six sixty 1708 01:29:45,760 --> 01:29:50,280 Speaker 1: eight and two. Not making money, losing money. We're doing 1709 01:29:50,280 --> 01:29:53,240 Speaker 1: a good job. Yeah, that's when it would stop. Okay, 1710 01:29:54,479 --> 01:29:58,840 Speaker 1: So full slate of games this week, um and they 1711 01:29:58,920 --> 01:30:06,080 Speaker 1: start on Saturday. Hated. Why why I'm with Paul on this? 1712 01:30:06,320 --> 01:30:09,560 Speaker 1: Like to give me a day off. The competitive imbalance 1713 01:30:09,680 --> 01:30:13,320 Speaker 1: that we're getting here, it's just not for me. That's 1714 01:30:13,320 --> 01:30:16,280 Speaker 1: why you hate the Saturday games. Yes, Oh I liked 1715 01:30:16,280 --> 01:30:18,479 Speaker 1: it when everything was played at Sunday at the same time. 1716 01:30:18,800 --> 01:30:22,040 Speaker 1: It just the drama is much better. So but I 1717 01:30:22,120 --> 01:30:24,080 Speaker 1: just meant like Saturday games in general, at the end 1718 01:30:24,080 --> 01:30:25,880 Speaker 1: of the year, you're fine those you just don't like 1719 01:30:25,960 --> 01:30:28,000 Speaker 1: it because of the competitive I like them. In like 1720 01:30:28,000 --> 01:30:31,360 Speaker 1: week sixteen seventeen, I like Kevin, like what Fred said, 1721 01:30:31,360 --> 01:30:34,759 Speaker 1: I just you know, like, do I not do something 1722 01:30:34,840 --> 01:30:36,519 Speaker 1: Saturday because I feel like I need to see what 1723 01:30:36,560 --> 01:30:38,439 Speaker 1: happens in the game. And the answer to that is no, 1724 01:30:38,680 --> 01:30:42,120 Speaker 1: I will do something sad to have a day, you know. 1725 01:30:42,840 --> 01:30:45,679 Speaker 1: Um So four thirty is the first game, and these 1726 01:30:45,680 --> 01:30:47,559 Speaker 1: are on This is the one that matters to the Patriots. 1727 01:30:47,640 --> 01:30:50,960 Speaker 1: These are on ESPN and ABC. They're putting it on 1728 01:30:51,000 --> 01:30:56,200 Speaker 1: both channels. According to this, thirteen and three Chiefs are 1729 01:30:56,280 --> 01:30:59,560 Speaker 1: at the six and ten Raiders Chiefs by nine and 1730 01:30:59,640 --> 01:31:03,720 Speaker 1: a half. Pint and a half. I'm gonna just say 1731 01:31:03,720 --> 01:31:06,320 Speaker 1: that Kansas City makes life a lot easier on a 1732 01:31:06,360 --> 01:31:10,120 Speaker 1: lot of us, and they pull out the win. However, 1733 01:31:10,840 --> 01:31:13,360 Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna take those points though. I think 1734 01:31:14,360 --> 01:31:16,040 Speaker 1: I think Las Vegas kind of letting it rip a 1735 01:31:16,080 --> 01:31:18,960 Speaker 1: little bit, and I think that they'll they'll keep it 1736 01:31:18,960 --> 01:31:22,280 Speaker 1: closer than ten games ten points. Yeah, I'm gonna do 1737 01:31:22,280 --> 01:31:25,360 Speaker 1: the same thing Chiefs with the Raiders covering the spread. 1738 01:31:25,400 --> 01:31:28,240 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, MVP of the league, not close, thank you. 1739 01:31:29,360 --> 01:31:32,599 Speaker 1: I love when he speaks in definitive tones. I am 1740 01:31:32,600 --> 01:31:36,120 Speaker 1: with the boys, Kansas City to win, Vegas to cover. 1741 01:31:36,760 --> 01:31:39,040 Speaker 1: I would be willing to pull an upset here, but 1742 01:31:39,160 --> 01:31:41,960 Speaker 1: I'm wondering if the Raiders kind of emptied the bucket 1743 01:31:42,040 --> 01:31:45,439 Speaker 1: last week. Yeah, bad team, really good performance against a 1744 01:31:45,479 --> 01:31:49,240 Speaker 1: good team. They still lost, So I do in the 1745 01:31:49,240 --> 01:31:51,280 Speaker 1: back of my mind wonder about that. But they seem 1746 01:31:51,360 --> 01:31:53,760 Speaker 1: to play really good games. Kansas City in Vegas. Yeah, 1747 01:31:53,920 --> 01:31:56,600 Speaker 1: so I'll split it. Um. Yeah, I'm gonna do the 1748 01:31:56,640 --> 01:32:01,240 Speaker 1: same thing. We're unanimous. Chiefs win by the Raiders cover 1749 01:32:02,560 --> 01:32:06,840 Speaker 1: eight fifteen on ESPN and ABC. The seven and nine 1750 01:32:06,880 --> 01:32:12,840 Speaker 1: Titans are at the eight and eight Jaguars Jags by six. 1751 01:32:13,720 --> 01:32:18,400 Speaker 1: Josh Dobbs, Right, Josh Dobbs is gonna lose to Trevor Lawrence. 1752 01:32:18,520 --> 01:32:20,840 Speaker 1: I think this is uh, this is a Jaguars Uh. 1753 01:32:20,920 --> 01:32:22,880 Speaker 1: I want to say coming out game, but uh, but 1754 01:32:22,960 --> 01:32:24,880 Speaker 1: I think that they they put it all together here, 1755 01:32:24,920 --> 01:32:27,280 Speaker 1: but have nice climax to their season and punched their 1756 01:32:27,280 --> 01:32:29,799 Speaker 1: playoff ticket. I'm gonna take Jags, and I'll lay the points. 1757 01:32:30,640 --> 01:32:32,400 Speaker 1: I'm also going to take the Jags. I think this 1758 01:32:32,520 --> 01:32:34,560 Speaker 1: is a passing of the torch in this division. I 1759 01:32:34,720 --> 01:32:37,000 Speaker 1: think the Jags are gonna be stick around, but I 1760 01:32:37,080 --> 01:32:39,080 Speaker 1: like the Titans to keep it close because I think 1761 01:32:39,080 --> 01:32:41,880 Speaker 1: they'll play for Vrabel and the division and they'll battle. 1762 01:32:43,960 --> 01:32:46,040 Speaker 1: I'm with Evan, I think the same thing. I think 1763 01:32:46,040 --> 01:32:47,880 Speaker 1: Tennessee will have a chance to win this game. I 1764 01:32:47,960 --> 01:32:52,160 Speaker 1: wonder if Jacksonville's ready for a big game. You know 1765 01:32:52,240 --> 01:32:54,519 Speaker 1: the you know some young guys that haven't really been 1766 01:32:54,560 --> 01:32:57,360 Speaker 1: in this spot. But I just think Tennessee's too beat 1767 01:32:57,439 --> 01:32:59,840 Speaker 1: up to actually win the game. And Josh Dobbs, like 1768 01:33:00,000 --> 01:33:01,760 Speaker 1: I've been said, think I don't think they're ready for 1769 01:33:01,760 --> 01:33:04,480 Speaker 1: this year. I've been riding Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars. 1770 01:33:04,560 --> 01:33:09,799 Speaker 1: I'll keep on that ride. Jaguars win against the Titans. 1771 01:33:09,920 --> 01:33:12,200 Speaker 1: What was the number on that poll? Six oh six? 1772 01:33:12,240 --> 01:33:14,880 Speaker 1: When did you start riding Trevor Lawrence A long time ago. 1773 01:33:15,600 --> 01:33:19,840 Speaker 1: He's been riding them. I will I'll say, I'll say 1774 01:33:19,840 --> 01:33:23,960 Speaker 1: the Jaguars cover in this game. Uh, we move over 1775 01:33:24,000 --> 01:33:27,720 Speaker 1: to Sunday one o'clock the eight and eight Buccaneers or 1776 01:33:27,800 --> 01:33:33,960 Speaker 1: at the six and ten Falcons Buccaneers by fours. Wow, 1777 01:33:34,000 --> 01:33:36,040 Speaker 1: what the heck happened on my sheet? These are? This 1778 01:33:36,160 --> 01:33:38,760 Speaker 1: is all mocked up? Um? All right? Well is this 1779 01:33:39,000 --> 01:33:42,639 Speaker 1: uh Tom Brady wrapping things up? Oh? I'm sorry? Atlanta 1780 01:33:42,680 --> 01:33:49,720 Speaker 1: by four, Atlanta by four? This is uh lead pipe lock. Yeah, 1781 01:33:49,800 --> 01:33:52,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna take Tampa and I will I'll 1782 01:33:52,320 --> 01:33:57,200 Speaker 1: take the points right, taking Tampa point Atlanta is favored 1783 01:33:57,200 --> 01:34:01,160 Speaker 1: by four. Yeah, all right, Tampa already won, and then 1784 01:34:01,200 --> 01:34:03,320 Speaker 1: they're definitely playing on watching spread is telling you that 1785 01:34:03,360 --> 01:34:07,120 Speaker 1: they're not playing anybody in this game. That's that's what 1786 01:34:07,160 --> 01:34:10,360 Speaker 1: the sharps say. I saw that Trask might play a 1787 01:34:10,360 --> 01:34:15,840 Speaker 1: little bit for for the Bucks. I do, Yeah, okay, 1788 01:34:15,880 --> 01:34:19,040 Speaker 1: Alan Falcons. I think they end up taking Brady out 1789 01:34:19,040 --> 01:34:21,120 Speaker 1: in the second half and he doesn't put together the 1790 01:34:21,160 --> 01:34:23,400 Speaker 1: magical drive to make sure the Bucks win the game 1791 01:34:23,439 --> 01:34:26,040 Speaker 1: because he's not playing there you Yeah, I mean, I'm 1792 01:34:26,080 --> 01:34:28,680 Speaker 1: gonna just go with the spread here. I'm gonna take 1793 01:34:28,680 --> 01:34:30,840 Speaker 1: Atlanta to win the game out right, I'm gonna go 1794 01:34:30,840 --> 01:34:33,840 Speaker 1: with the Buccaneers. Um, I mean, if the Buccaneers aren't 1795 01:34:33,840 --> 01:34:37,120 Speaker 1: playing anybody, why would the Falcons? This is it's a 1796 01:34:37,160 --> 01:34:39,320 Speaker 1: big one for me, for Paul. It's gonna be Desmond 1797 01:34:39,360 --> 01:34:41,679 Speaker 1: Ritter though, And I think, yeah, and he's been playing, 1798 01:34:41,720 --> 01:34:44,120 Speaker 1: and they've been playing hard. He's got something to prove. Yeah, 1799 01:34:44,200 --> 01:34:46,880 Speaker 1: I as long as Tom's playing, though, I don't think 1800 01:34:46,880 --> 01:34:49,040 Speaker 1: he will. I think the spread's telling you he's not 1801 01:34:49,040 --> 01:34:50,920 Speaker 1: gonna be in the game very long. I don't know. 1802 01:34:50,960 --> 01:34:52,880 Speaker 1: I just saw Trask would was expected to say the 1803 01:34:52,880 --> 01:34:56,320 Speaker 1: Bucks anyway? What they do? One o'clock, the twelve and 1804 01:34:56,320 --> 01:35:02,760 Speaker 1: four Vikings are at the three and thirteen Bears Minnesota 1805 01:35:02,800 --> 01:35:08,000 Speaker 1: by seven. No, Justin Fields, Yeah, three and thirteen. It's 1806 01:35:08,040 --> 01:35:11,519 Speaker 1: crazy one of those three that was us. I should 1807 01:35:11,560 --> 01:35:15,360 Speaker 1: have won that one too. You know what, I'm gonna 1808 01:35:15,360 --> 01:35:19,679 Speaker 1: take Minnesota. Would you say it was mine? In seven? Seven? Yeah? Uh, 1809 01:35:19,840 --> 01:35:21,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Minnesota. I'm gonna lay the points. I 1810 01:35:21,600 --> 01:35:23,120 Speaker 1: feel like they all of a sudden just have one 1811 01:35:23,120 --> 01:35:24,760 Speaker 1: of those games where they bounced back and play well 1812 01:35:24,800 --> 01:35:27,240 Speaker 1: and put up a bunch of points. No, Justin Jefferson though, right, 1813 01:35:28,120 --> 01:35:30,680 Speaker 1: no idea? All right, see Hurt, I don't know, Oh 1814 01:35:30,720 --> 01:35:33,759 Speaker 1: you saw you said Justin Fields. I'm good justin Field Minnesota. 1815 01:35:34,800 --> 01:35:38,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Minnesota too, but they're frauds sorry, fraudulent 1816 01:35:38,479 --> 01:35:41,120 Speaker 1: brown out by the Cowboys, blown out by the Packers. 1817 01:35:41,200 --> 01:35:45,840 Speaker 1: Not a good football team. Um, so you got both. 1818 01:35:46,400 --> 01:35:50,000 Speaker 1: You're taken the points, I am, but just because the 1819 01:35:50,080 --> 01:35:54,040 Speaker 1: Bears are stinky. Oh so you're given the points? Okay? Yeah, 1820 01:35:54,080 --> 01:35:57,120 Speaker 1: I am gonna lay the points to UM Minnesota both ways, 1821 01:35:57,640 --> 01:36:00,519 Speaker 1: perhaps with their first victory of the season by more 1822 01:36:00,560 --> 01:36:04,519 Speaker 1: than a score. Yeah, I'm gonna take Minnesota as well. 1823 01:36:05,600 --> 01:36:10,320 Speaker 1: Uh to cover and win UM Sunday at one, the 1824 01:36:10,560 --> 01:36:13,360 Speaker 1: ten and six Ravens are at the eleven and four 1825 01:36:13,479 --> 01:36:18,960 Speaker 1: Bengals Bengals by seven MS. What are the Sharps No, 1826 01:36:19,520 --> 01:36:24,240 Speaker 1: um no, Lamar Jackson Yep. Yeah, I'm gonna take since 1827 01:36:24,240 --> 01:36:28,920 Speaker 1: he all the way the points. I take the Bengals 1828 01:36:28,960 --> 01:36:30,720 Speaker 1: as well. I think they blow them out, so I 1829 01:36:30,720 --> 01:36:34,679 Speaker 1: think they cover. Bengals Patriots Wildcard round if it comes 1830 01:36:34,680 --> 01:36:38,680 Speaker 1: to that, I don't hate it. I don't hate rather 1831 01:36:38,720 --> 01:36:41,720 Speaker 1: than see the Buffalo again or Kansas City. Yeah, if 1832 01:36:41,760 --> 01:36:43,360 Speaker 1: I had to pick one of those three, I'm taking 1833 01:36:43,360 --> 01:36:45,559 Speaker 1: the Bengals. Yeah, unless you get to watch Joe wa 1834 01:36:45,880 --> 01:36:48,519 Speaker 1: I will take Cincinnati to win. I will take the points. However, 1835 01:36:48,680 --> 01:36:51,280 Speaker 1: really division division game, I think it'll be closer. Yeah, 1836 01:36:51,320 --> 01:36:55,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Bengals both ways. Sunday at one, the 1837 01:36:55,840 --> 01:36:59,639 Speaker 1: two thirteen and one Texans are at the four eleven 1838 01:36:59,680 --> 01:37:03,599 Speaker 1: and one on Colts. Wow, should have this time the 1839 01:37:03,600 --> 01:37:06,400 Speaker 1: Toilet Bowl Colts by two and a half. Two and 1840 01:37:06,400 --> 01:37:10,599 Speaker 1: a half. Colts are at home. I'm just gonna take 1841 01:37:10,640 --> 01:37:12,800 Speaker 1: them at home. I'll lay the points. I'm not really 1842 01:37:12,840 --> 01:37:16,479 Speaker 1: sure why. So the the Texans are they're locked into 1843 01:37:16,479 --> 01:37:19,519 Speaker 1: the number one pick, right, I believe so because that 1844 01:37:20,000 --> 01:37:22,400 Speaker 1: I think this is two wins in a tie. Yeah. 1845 01:37:22,439 --> 01:37:27,360 Speaker 1: Does anybody have three wins? Yeah? Bears the Bears. Yeah, 1846 01:37:27,520 --> 01:37:29,080 Speaker 1: so they're not locked in right now, they're not. Three 1847 01:37:29,080 --> 01:37:31,080 Speaker 1: wins in a tie would be better than three wins, right. 1848 01:37:31,280 --> 01:37:33,800 Speaker 1: I take the Colts because the Colts cannot get the 1849 01:37:33,880 --> 01:37:36,439 Speaker 1: number one pick based off of that, and I think 1850 01:37:36,479 --> 01:37:40,840 Speaker 1: the the Texans really want that number one pick. Yeah. 1851 01:37:40,920 --> 01:37:44,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Houston anyway, um, because I think that 1852 01:37:44,120 --> 01:37:47,439 Speaker 1: they've played reasonably hard down the stretch, but I wish 1853 01:37:47,520 --> 01:37:49,120 Speaker 1: they had locked up the number one seed. To you 1854 01:37:49,160 --> 01:37:50,479 Speaker 1: a point and they could go out and try to 1855 01:37:50,479 --> 01:37:52,360 Speaker 1: win the game without anything in the back of their mind. 1856 01:37:52,400 --> 01:37:54,400 Speaker 1: It is interesting the Lovey angle. I don't know if 1857 01:37:54,439 --> 01:37:56,559 Speaker 1: Lovey is gonna be back next year, and maybe he 1858 01:37:56,640 --> 01:37:59,160 Speaker 1: doesn't give it. Yeah, but does he care about that 1859 01:37:59,240 --> 01:38:02,439 Speaker 1: number one pick? Right? I am gonna go with the 1860 01:38:02,479 --> 01:38:07,120 Speaker 1: Colts in this game, last home game. Colts go out 1861 01:38:07,120 --> 01:38:10,080 Speaker 1: with a win. Sunday at one. These seven and nine 1862 01:38:10,200 --> 01:38:13,880 Speaker 1: Jets are at the eight and eight Dolphins. Jets by 1863 01:38:13,920 --> 01:38:17,280 Speaker 1: one and a half. Jets one and a Hay, this 1864 01:38:17,360 --> 01:38:19,960 Speaker 1: is a tough one. This is a tough, tough one. Yeah, 1865 01:38:20,000 --> 01:38:22,599 Speaker 1: I might fade this game. I don't know what that 1866 01:38:22,640 --> 01:38:27,320 Speaker 1: means still, but I'm gonna faded. Um. I'm gonna go 1867 01:38:27,360 --> 01:38:29,000 Speaker 1: Miami at home. I think it's a tough one though. 1868 01:38:29,040 --> 01:38:30,599 Speaker 1: This is a kind of a coin flip. But I'm 1869 01:38:30,640 --> 01:38:33,800 Speaker 1: gonna take the Dolphins and I'll lay the points. I 1870 01:38:33,880 --> 01:38:36,479 Speaker 1: like the Jets. I like the Jets. I like them too. 1871 01:38:36,640 --> 01:38:38,000 Speaker 1: It's only one and a half, so I like them 1872 01:38:38,040 --> 01:38:42,479 Speaker 1: to cover two. Yeah. I Skyler Thompson or Teddy Bridgewater 1873 01:38:42,560 --> 01:38:46,600 Speaker 1: or the broken Pinkie against that, against that defense, I 1874 01:38:46,600 --> 01:38:50,439 Speaker 1: think the Jets still play hard. Nope, I don't like it. Yeah, 1875 01:38:50,479 --> 01:38:54,760 Speaker 1: I'll take the Jets too. Um, if the Dolphins lose 1876 01:38:55,080 --> 01:38:58,040 Speaker 1: six in a row to end the season losses, yeah 1877 01:38:58,080 --> 01:39:02,599 Speaker 1: wow Yeah. Mike McDaniel on the Armando reported that yesterday 1878 01:39:02,680 --> 01:39:05,439 Speaker 1: he shouldn't be but he could be. I don't think 1879 01:39:05,439 --> 01:39:07,720 Speaker 1: he should be, right, but they're talking about him and 1880 01:39:07,760 --> 01:39:10,559 Speaker 1: the GM. You know me, I would have fired Chris 1881 01:39:12,760 --> 01:39:14,560 Speaker 1: like all of a sudden, he's gonna get fired. You 1882 01:39:14,640 --> 01:39:17,639 Speaker 1: remember that one right week one when he was running 1883 01:39:17,640 --> 01:39:19,560 Speaker 1: plays instead of taking a knee at the end of 1884 01:39:19,600 --> 01:39:21,240 Speaker 1: the game. I said I'd fired him right now. That's 1885 01:39:21,240 --> 01:39:24,839 Speaker 1: coaching negligence. Well, um, if they can get Sean Payton 1886 01:39:25,040 --> 01:39:28,519 Speaker 1: because they want they wanted Jomon, I don't think it's 1887 01:39:28,520 --> 01:39:31,160 Speaker 1: out of the realm. So this is when they finally 1888 01:39:31,160 --> 01:39:35,320 Speaker 1: get Peyton and Brady and yep yeah Thomas, Yeah, I'm 1889 01:39:35,320 --> 01:39:37,320 Speaker 1: gonna go with the Jets as well. I'm gonna go 1890 01:39:37,320 --> 01:39:40,080 Speaker 1: with the Jets. Yeah. I think that the Dolphins are 1891 01:39:40,080 --> 01:39:44,679 Speaker 1: really in a tailspin. Um Sunday at one, the six 1892 01:39:44,680 --> 01:39:48,280 Speaker 1: and ten Panthers are at the seven and nine Saints, 1893 01:39:48,920 --> 01:39:52,840 Speaker 1: Saints by three by three. Now, what are the sharp 1894 01:39:52,920 --> 01:39:55,720 Speaker 1: snow here? Because the Panthers have been playing well. I 1895 01:39:55,760 --> 01:39:58,280 Speaker 1: know they lost last week to the Bucks, but they 1896 01:39:58,280 --> 01:40:01,599 Speaker 1: have been playing better. Yeah, you know the Saints beat 1897 01:40:01,640 --> 01:40:06,720 Speaker 1: the Eagles last week. Yeah without Jalen Right, yeah yeah, Okay, 1898 01:40:07,120 --> 01:40:11,800 Speaker 1: that's right back to where I am. I have no idea. 1899 01:40:12,080 --> 01:40:13,400 Speaker 1: So we got a lot of we got a lot 1900 01:40:13,400 --> 01:40:16,080 Speaker 1: of sameness going on here. But I'm say they have 1901 01:40:16,120 --> 01:40:18,559 Speaker 1: like the same record they both you know, I know 1902 01:40:19,000 --> 01:40:20,840 Speaker 1: it's tough. I'm gonna I'm just gonna go home team 1903 01:40:20,840 --> 01:40:23,600 Speaker 1: here again in New Orleans. Yeah, I'm gonna do the 1904 01:40:23,600 --> 01:40:26,840 Speaker 1: same thing. I will take the Saints. I'm gonna take 1905 01:40:26,840 --> 01:40:29,880 Speaker 1: the Panthers. So screw you. Yeah, I don't think I 1906 01:40:29,920 --> 01:40:31,920 Speaker 1: don't think you. I don't think your pick is a 1907 01:40:31,920 --> 01:40:34,800 Speaker 1: bad pick. I just think it's two bad teams playing. 1908 01:40:34,880 --> 01:40:37,639 Speaker 1: They have the home team favored by three. I don't 1909 01:40:37,640 --> 01:40:39,880 Speaker 1: think that's a red flag. That's not like the Falcons 1910 01:40:39,880 --> 01:40:42,840 Speaker 1: a bad team over the division champs by four. Bucks 1911 01:40:42,840 --> 01:40:45,120 Speaker 1: are also a bad team, to be fair, but well, 1912 01:40:45,120 --> 01:40:47,320 Speaker 1: they're better team than the Falcons, although they should have 1913 01:40:47,320 --> 01:40:49,680 Speaker 1: lost the Falcons the first time Sunday at one. How 1914 01:40:49,720 --> 01:40:52,160 Speaker 1: do you remember that the seven and nine Browns the 1915 01:40:52,240 --> 01:40:55,839 Speaker 1: roughing the pastor game? Remember that seven to nine Browns 1916 01:40:55,920 --> 01:40:59,320 Speaker 1: are at the eight. Nate Steelers. Steelers by two and 1917 01:40:59,360 --> 01:41:03,080 Speaker 1: a half. Two. Hey, another Patriots game. They need Cleveland 1918 01:41:03,080 --> 01:41:07,720 Speaker 1: to win, and uh yeah, I haven't really seen much 1919 01:41:07,720 --> 01:41:09,599 Speaker 1: of Cleveland last couple of weeks, but I'm gonna take 1920 01:41:09,640 --> 01:41:13,280 Speaker 1: Cleveland on the road. It fields gross having the roof 1921 01:41:13,280 --> 01:41:16,240 Speaker 1: for to Shaun Watson. I hate that. But I think 1922 01:41:16,280 --> 01:41:19,960 Speaker 1: the Steelers. I think they take care of business. I 1923 01:41:20,000 --> 01:41:22,320 Speaker 1: think Henny Pickett's been playing okay. I'm not gonna say 1924 01:41:22,320 --> 01:41:24,559 Speaker 1: he's been playing great, but I think he's been playing okay. 1925 01:41:24,760 --> 01:41:28,960 Speaker 1: May not even close. He doesn't make those pump plus breaks. 1926 01:41:28,960 --> 01:41:31,400 Speaker 1: He doesn't make those plus throws. He big time thrown. 1927 01:41:31,560 --> 01:41:35,479 Speaker 1: He does have some mobility, though he does surprise he 1928 01:41:35,560 --> 01:41:38,519 Speaker 1: did something last week that Max's never done. Yeah, he 1929 01:41:38,560 --> 01:41:41,040 Speaker 1: does have a little bit of mobility. I think I'm 1930 01:41:41,040 --> 01:41:44,040 Speaker 1: gonna take the Steelers. It just I don't know. Toma 1931 01:41:44,160 --> 01:41:45,920 Speaker 1: just gets them to five hundred every year. I don't 1932 01:41:46,000 --> 01:41:49,280 Speaker 1: understand it. It's amazing. Yeah, Like every year you think this, 1933 01:41:49,479 --> 01:41:51,479 Speaker 1: there's no way, there's no way this year, no way 1934 01:41:51,520 --> 01:41:53,720 Speaker 1: this year, and he does it again. I think they 1935 01:41:53,760 --> 01:41:59,639 Speaker 1: win this game. I think Pittsburgh wins it. That's your pick. Yeah, okay, yeah, 1936 01:41:59,680 --> 01:42:03,160 Speaker 1: I agree. I think Steelers win this game. I I 1937 01:42:03,240 --> 01:42:05,400 Speaker 1: counted them out as dead at the beginning of the 1938 01:42:05,400 --> 01:42:08,000 Speaker 1: season too. I think I still think they say, I 1939 01:42:08,000 --> 01:42:10,040 Speaker 1: thought this is going to be a lost season for them, 1940 01:42:10,080 --> 01:42:13,200 Speaker 1: like who cares, you know, But they've turned it around, 1941 01:42:13,680 --> 01:42:18,799 Speaker 1: you know. So I'll take the Steelers to win this game. Um. Now, 1942 01:42:19,400 --> 01:42:23,639 Speaker 1: we skip over the Patriots at one o'clock and we 1943 01:42:23,720 --> 01:42:27,280 Speaker 1: moved to the four No four or five games. So 1944 01:42:27,320 --> 01:42:30,439 Speaker 1: they want to make sure that everyone's finished before they 1945 01:42:30,479 --> 01:42:33,519 Speaker 1: start playing the late game, before they ensure that Aaron 1946 01:42:33,600 --> 01:42:38,240 Speaker 1: Rodgers makes the playoffs. Right. So four twenty five, we 1947 01:42:38,320 --> 01:42:41,680 Speaker 1: start with the nine, six and one Giants against the 1948 01:42:41,840 --> 01:42:45,599 Speaker 1: thirteen and three Eagles, And I think Hurtz is going 1949 01:42:45,640 --> 01:42:49,880 Speaker 1: to play Eagles by fourteen yikes, and that would signify 1950 01:42:49,960 --> 01:42:55,080 Speaker 1: he is going to play with You're gonna sit people 1951 01:42:55,680 --> 01:42:58,120 Speaker 1: they're playing next week no matter what. I'll take Philly, 1952 01:42:58,160 --> 01:42:59,800 Speaker 1: but give me those that's a lot of points out. 1953 01:43:00,240 --> 01:43:03,160 Speaker 1: Just give me the points. I'll take Philly as well, 1954 01:43:03,240 --> 01:43:05,320 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna do the same thing. I find it 1955 01:43:05,400 --> 01:43:07,760 Speaker 1: interesting though, that the Eagles not that it's going to 1956 01:43:07,840 --> 01:43:10,879 Speaker 1: matter for them, But Gardner Minshew being Jalen Hurts's backup 1957 01:43:11,000 --> 01:43:14,439 Speaker 1: is like, I don't know, like Tyler Huntley being Lamar's backup. 1958 01:43:14,560 --> 01:43:16,759 Speaker 1: It makes a little bit of sense. But their offense 1959 01:43:16,800 --> 01:43:19,560 Speaker 1: has fallen apart because Gardner Minshew can't do any of 1960 01:43:19,600 --> 01:43:21,960 Speaker 1: the things that Jalen Hurts can do, even at like 1961 01:43:21,960 --> 01:43:25,120 Speaker 1: a poor man's level. So yeah, I agree they're stylistically 1962 01:43:25,160 --> 01:43:27,519 Speaker 1: not close. But they did score thirty four points in 1963 01:43:27,640 --> 01:43:30,280 Speaker 1: his first start last week. They did nothing last week, 1964 01:43:30,280 --> 01:43:32,680 Speaker 1: they were out early in apt I'm gonna take Philadelphia 1965 01:43:32,720 --> 01:43:36,200 Speaker 1: both ways. I think that they do everything they can 1966 01:43:36,200 --> 01:43:38,479 Speaker 1: to lock up that number one season. Yeah, the sharps 1967 01:43:38,479 --> 01:43:40,920 Speaker 1: are telling you to go with the number here. So 1968 01:43:41,560 --> 01:43:47,360 Speaker 1: Eagles cover four twenty five. The twelve and four Cowboys 1969 01:43:47,840 --> 01:43:52,759 Speaker 1: are at the seven, eight and one. Commanders Dallas by seven. 1970 01:43:52,920 --> 01:43:55,720 Speaker 1: Ron Rivera still unsure if they're alive for the playoffs. 1971 01:43:56,680 --> 01:44:01,040 Speaker 1: I think Sam Howell started this game. Yeah, oh quarterback Roulette, 1972 01:44:01,080 --> 01:44:05,160 Speaker 1: Oh boy, Uh, I'm gonna take I'm gonna I'm gonna 1973 01:44:05,160 --> 01:44:07,280 Speaker 1: take Dallas. But you know what, I'm gonna take those 1974 01:44:07,320 --> 01:44:13,000 Speaker 1: points on the road and see if it's a close one. Yeah, 1975 01:44:13,080 --> 01:44:15,280 Speaker 1: I think I gonna do. Dallas has like just played 1976 01:44:15,280 --> 01:44:17,760 Speaker 1: a bunch of close games for no reason lately. I 1977 01:44:17,800 --> 01:44:20,320 Speaker 1: feel like they just, you know, haven't really been able 1978 01:44:20,320 --> 01:44:22,760 Speaker 1: to pull away from teams. So I'll do the same thing. 1979 01:44:23,200 --> 01:44:25,800 Speaker 1: I will take them to pull away from Sam Howell. Um, 1980 01:44:26,400 --> 01:44:31,559 Speaker 1: Dallas both ways. Um My instinct says take the points, 1981 01:44:31,880 --> 01:44:35,719 Speaker 1: so I will Cowboys win. But they do not cover, 1982 01:44:36,160 --> 01:44:38,559 Speaker 1: and I could definitely see like a Sam Howell start 1983 01:44:38,680 --> 01:44:40,439 Speaker 1: in him getting knocked out like in the middle of 1984 01:44:40,439 --> 01:44:44,400 Speaker 1: the second quarter, and it comes that Heineken running around rowing, 1985 01:44:44,520 --> 01:44:51,599 Speaker 1: throwing picks, throwing picks and scoring touchdowns fur twenty five. Uh, 1986 01:44:51,680 --> 01:44:55,720 Speaker 1: The ten and six Chargers are at the four and 1987 01:44:55,840 --> 01:44:59,719 Speaker 1: twelve Broncos, playing their tenth home games year. Um, Mike, 1988 01:45:00,080 --> 01:45:02,040 Speaker 1: don't you have for a number on that Chargers by 1989 01:45:02,040 --> 01:45:04,759 Speaker 1: two and a half, Chargers by two and a half? Okay, 1990 01:45:05,040 --> 01:45:06,800 Speaker 1: Charges by two and a half. I have it down 1991 01:45:06,840 --> 01:45:08,200 Speaker 1: here is Denver by two and a half, and it 1992 01:45:08,240 --> 01:45:11,120 Speaker 1: just seems wrong to me. It does. ESPN says Denver 1993 01:45:11,320 --> 01:45:13,280 Speaker 1: by one and a half. Okay, then Denver by two 1994 01:45:13,280 --> 01:45:16,120 Speaker 1: and a half. I didn't make a mistake If that's 1995 01:45:16,120 --> 01:45:18,280 Speaker 1: the same thing that I looked at this way, Denver's 1996 01:45:18,280 --> 01:45:19,880 Speaker 1: favored by two and a half one and a half 1997 01:45:19,920 --> 01:45:22,240 Speaker 1: on you know what, I'm gonna go by a weird 1998 01:45:22,280 --> 01:45:24,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Denver. I know that's strange, but I'm 1999 01:45:24,720 --> 01:45:26,519 Speaker 1: gonna take them. I think, like, yeah, that's a weird 2000 01:45:26,560 --> 01:45:28,439 Speaker 1: like Charger thing. They're not trying to be like, you know, 2001 01:45:28,520 --> 01:45:30,439 Speaker 1: Johnny know it all. But I think a lot of 2002 01:45:30,439 --> 01:45:32,800 Speaker 1: these spreads are telling you the playoff teams are not 2003 01:45:32,840 --> 01:45:35,400 Speaker 1: playing their players, right yeah, yeah, you know they get 2004 01:45:35,439 --> 01:45:37,519 Speaker 1: this kind of information. We're not, you know, they're in 2005 01:45:37,560 --> 01:45:40,040 Speaker 1: the charges. I haven't been on the Chargers, you know, 2006 01:45:40,200 --> 01:45:43,160 Speaker 1: injury report all week, but whatever. Yeah yeah, yeah, Like 2007 01:45:43,200 --> 01:45:45,439 Speaker 1: if Justin Herbert's not playing, I can understand why the 2008 01:45:45,439 --> 01:45:47,719 Speaker 1: Broncos are favored, right. I don't know why Justin Herbert 2009 01:45:47,760 --> 01:45:50,040 Speaker 1: would play in this game. I mean, they're they got 2010 01:45:50,040 --> 01:45:54,680 Speaker 1: nothing to win, so I'll I'm still gonna go with 2011 01:45:54,760 --> 01:45:57,200 Speaker 1: the Chargers though, because I just think Denver is an 2012 01:45:57,200 --> 01:46:00,960 Speaker 1: absolute dumpster right now, and I think that, I don't know, 2013 01:46:01,080 --> 01:46:03,840 Speaker 1: there's something really wrong in Denver now. The players are 2014 01:46:03,840 --> 01:46:05,960 Speaker 1: trying to come out and defend Russell Wilson on social 2015 01:46:06,000 --> 01:46:08,439 Speaker 1: media and stuff like that. It's just it's a mess. 2016 01:46:08,960 --> 01:46:11,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take the I'm gonna take the Chargers too. 2017 01:46:11,479 --> 01:46:13,479 Speaker 1: I was just gonna say real quick from from rap sheet, 2018 01:46:13,520 --> 01:46:16,679 Speaker 1: I just thought this was interesting. Per Doctors, Damar Hamlin 2019 01:46:16,800 --> 01:46:18,880 Speaker 1: was able to follow directions and even ask who won 2020 01:46:18,920 --> 01:46:22,080 Speaker 1: the game last night? Oh? Like the show on the Doctors. 2021 01:46:22,080 --> 01:46:25,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if this is this is? Is this live? Yeah? 2022 01:46:25,160 --> 01:46:27,680 Speaker 1: You see who won the game? Like, bro, you got 2023 01:46:27,720 --> 01:46:30,680 Speaker 1: no idea what has been I feel terrible that now 2024 01:46:30,720 --> 01:46:33,200 Speaker 1: he's gonna find out that they had to he's gonna 2025 01:46:33,200 --> 01:46:35,840 Speaker 1: be pissed the game. I think it's great. I mean, 2026 01:46:35,880 --> 01:46:38,439 Speaker 1: I think that the fact that these are the kinds 2027 01:46:38,439 --> 01:46:40,160 Speaker 1: of things that you wanted to hear, right, this is 2028 01:46:40,200 --> 01:46:41,800 Speaker 1: what we were talking about all week. You know, it 2029 01:46:41,800 --> 01:46:44,839 Speaker 1: makes some signs that we can say, Okay, it was horrible, 2030 01:46:45,320 --> 01:46:46,519 Speaker 1: but there's gonna be a light at the end of 2031 01:46:46,560 --> 01:46:48,439 Speaker 1: the tunnel. That's great. And you got six million dollars 2032 01:46:48,479 --> 01:46:50,559 Speaker 1: that's great. Well that's what Fred said. You know, you're 2033 01:46:50,560 --> 01:46:54,000 Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna, we're gonna win this to you. But 2034 01:46:54,160 --> 01:46:56,879 Speaker 1: you know serious, if there's any doubt in a player's 2035 01:46:56,920 --> 01:46:59,559 Speaker 1: mind that he wanted them to play. His first question 2036 01:46:59,640 --> 01:47:02,640 Speaker 1: is who one. Yeah, of course he did. You know. 2037 01:47:03,000 --> 01:47:05,040 Speaker 1: It's I mean, it's like my favorite moment in Rocky Too, 2038 01:47:05,040 --> 01:47:08,240 Speaker 1: when when Adrian finally wakes up out of the corm right, 2039 01:47:08,360 --> 01:47:10,479 Speaker 1: she said, I just want to want to thank you. 2040 01:47:10,520 --> 01:47:13,639 Speaker 1: So did he Just so, it's funny that you said 2041 01:47:13,680 --> 01:47:17,640 Speaker 1: that perfectly. It it's completely inappropriate. Life imitates our But 2042 01:47:17,720 --> 01:47:20,160 Speaker 1: when they when they had the news about him. When 2043 01:47:20,200 --> 01:47:21,800 Speaker 1: this morning, as I'm driving in, the first thing I 2044 01:47:21,840 --> 01:47:27,200 Speaker 1: thought about was a gift of Mickey take us like 2045 01:47:27,479 --> 01:47:31,160 Speaker 1: like that. I wanted to, you know, like here we go, like, 2046 01:47:32,080 --> 01:47:34,920 Speaker 1: let's get to training. You're saying praying for me, father 2047 01:47:34,960 --> 01:47:38,120 Speaker 1: to calm. It's like you bust it up tonight. It 2048 01:47:38,200 --> 01:47:45,280 Speaker 1: won't be too bad. Hey, you know, I'm like solely father, 2049 01:47:45,400 --> 01:47:51,360 Speaker 1: thank you, thank you for Father. So um chargers, Chargers win, 2050 01:47:51,479 --> 01:47:56,559 Speaker 1: but they don't cover I'll take the points.

Damn it, 2053 01:48:04,560 --> 01:48:06,439 Speaker 1: I can I know I was confusing with that because 2054 01:48:06,479 --> 01:48:08,920 Speaker 1: I was unsure if I had it right. Um Denver 2055 01:48:09,040 --> 01:48:11,720 Speaker 1: by two and a half. Why damn it? If you 2056 01:48:11,760 --> 01:48:14,479 Speaker 1: think the Chargers are gonna win. Pick the Chargers, all right, 2057 01:48:14,760 --> 01:48:18,879 Speaker 1: Chargers win. Four twenty five, the five and eleven Rams 2058 01:48:19,040 --> 01:48:23,880 Speaker 1: are at the eight and eight Seahawks. Seahawks by six 2059 01:48:23,920 --> 01:48:27,840 Speaker 1: and a half. Os need it, they need it. I'm 2060 01:48:27,840 --> 01:48:29,839 Speaker 1: gonna take the Hawks. I think they get it. I'll 2061 01:48:29,960 --> 01:48:36,559 Speaker 1: lay the points. So which one is this? The NFC 2062 01:48:36,680 --> 01:48:39,200 Speaker 1: West one of them owns one of them and this 2063 01:48:39,280 --> 01:48:41,720 Speaker 1: is I don't I'm not sure about this one, but 2064 01:48:41,760 --> 01:48:44,479 Speaker 1: I'm not sure this one qualifies. Okay, think gets the 2065 01:48:44,600 --> 01:48:48,559 Speaker 1: Rams on the Cardinals, the Niners on the Rams, and 2066 01:48:48,640 --> 01:48:51,679 Speaker 1: I'm not sure how much the other ones all get involved. 2067 01:48:51,960 --> 01:48:53,920 Speaker 1: Pick it straight up then, and I'm gonna take the 2068 01:48:53,920 --> 01:48:58,640 Speaker 1: Seahawks as well. I'm gonna take Seattle. Um, they have 2069 01:48:58,760 --> 01:49:02,080 Speaker 1: something to play for and they will find a way 2070 01:49:02,080 --> 01:49:04,320 Speaker 1: at home, and I'll lay the points. I will take 2071 01:49:04,360 --> 01:49:09,519 Speaker 1: Seattle as well.

The Niners do have something to 2074 01:49:20,040 --> 01:49:24,639 Speaker 1: play for because if the Eagles lose, the Niners can 2075 01:49:24,680 --> 01:49:28,519 Speaker 1: be the number one seed. Boy, I'm gonna take the 2076 01:49:28,560 --> 01:49:31,360 Speaker 1: forty nine Ers and yeah, I think they win big. 2077 01:49:31,360 --> 01:49:34,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna lay the points. I take the forty nine 2078 01:49:34,720 --> 01:49:37,160 Speaker 1: ers as well. And then when we wake up Monday morning, 2079 01:49:37,160 --> 01:49:39,840 Speaker 1: does Cliff Kingsbury still have a job. Yeah, I know 2080 01:49:39,920 --> 01:49:43,479 Speaker 1: everybody thinks he's completely gone. And I just can't imagine 2081 01:49:43,479 --> 01:49:46,200 Speaker 1: that Bidwell eats that money. So it is a lot 2082 01:49:46,200 --> 01:49:50,240 Speaker 1: of money. But he just signed him. Then the team 2083 01:49:50,280 --> 01:49:54,120 Speaker 1: that drafted him. It's an offensive coordinator. But you've been 2084 01:49:54,160 --> 01:49:59,680 Speaker 1: telling me Young Evan all season long, how uninspired the 2085 01:49:59,760 --> 01:50:04,000 Speaker 1: Carinals offenses. It is Cliff Kingsbury. I know, but this 2086 01:50:04,160 --> 01:50:06,600 Speaker 1: is what I'm hearing. I'm just I'm just here to 2087 01:50:07,000 --> 01:50:10,479 Speaker 1: everybody honest, because I like Fred will tell you this. 2088 01:50:10,560 --> 01:50:16,160 Speaker 1: I'd like to know opinions on people before, not after 2089 01:50:16,479 --> 01:50:18,599 Speaker 1: their patriots. Oh you know, if they hire him, I'm 2090 01:50:18,600 --> 01:50:20,200 Speaker 1: going to tell you the greatest thing ever I know 2091 01:50:20,680 --> 01:50:23,840 Speaker 1: because that's what we do around here. So all year 2092 01:50:23,960 --> 01:50:28,120 Speaker 1: you told me, okay, okay, he's no good okay, but 2093 01:50:28,280 --> 01:50:32,040 Speaker 1: to be fair, but with Mac Jones, he's not you 2094 01:50:32,120 --> 01:50:35,080 Speaker 1: no longer saddled with Kyler Murray. With Mac Jones. Yeah, 2095 01:50:35,080 --> 01:50:40,439 Speaker 1: at least Jones can see good luck. But if he's 2096 01:50:40,520 --> 01:50:44,120 Speaker 1: gone from uh, the Cardinals. Don't you think the more 2097 01:50:44,160 --> 01:50:47,760 Speaker 1: attractive option for him is to take over a college program? Yeah, 2098 01:50:47,840 --> 01:50:50,360 Speaker 1: but that that time of years kind of passed though. 2099 01:50:50,520 --> 01:50:52,760 Speaker 1: Why would you like, know what if he wants to 2100 01:50:52,800 --> 01:50:55,240 Speaker 1: be an NFL coach, but he's going to be a 2101 01:50:55,320 --> 01:50:59,400 Speaker 1: head coach in a college program and it's probably be good. 2102 01:50:59,520 --> 01:51:01,800 Speaker 1: What do you but what do you want? What do 2103 01:51:01,920 --> 01:51:03,960 Speaker 1: I want? Does he want to be an NFL head coach? 2104 01:51:04,200 --> 01:51:05,560 Speaker 1: You get to make a lot of money and be 2105 01:51:05,640 --> 01:51:07,679 Speaker 1: in charge. Does you want to be an NFL head coach? Again, 2106 01:51:08,000 --> 01:51:10,680 Speaker 1: you can be down the road, but that's but I 2107 01:51:10,720 --> 01:51:12,479 Speaker 1: think that's a big part of the equation. Yeah, but 2108 01:51:12,720 --> 01:51:15,280 Speaker 1: I think the better road is Evans road. Yeah. If 2109 01:51:15,320 --> 01:51:16,960 Speaker 1: you want to be an NFL head coach, come here, 2110 01:51:17,040 --> 01:51:21,000 Speaker 1: fix fix somebody's offense, and then you become a hot commodity. Yeah, 2111 01:51:21,120 --> 01:51:22,680 Speaker 1: but you make a lot more money and be in 2112 01:51:22,720 --> 01:51:25,640 Speaker 1: total control in college. Okay. One other thing I'll say 2113 01:51:25,680 --> 01:51:27,760 Speaker 1: about the Cardinals, A lot of reports coming out of 2114 01:51:27,800 --> 01:51:32,160 Speaker 1: Arizona is that more than likely DeAndre Hopkins is definitely 2115 01:51:32,240 --> 01:51:35,519 Speaker 1: going to be out in Arizona because they're not thinking 2116 01:51:35,640 --> 01:51:38,599 Speaker 1: that Kyler's going to be ready to even play at all. 2117 01:51:38,680 --> 01:51:41,240 Speaker 1: Next year. So next year it's kind of a lost year. 2118 01:51:41,280 --> 01:51:44,320 Speaker 1: He's got two years left on his contract. We saw 2119 01:51:44,320 --> 01:51:46,600 Speaker 1: a bill with him on NFL Films or whatever, the 2120 01:51:46,680 --> 01:51:49,400 Speaker 1: Hard Knocks or whatever that was going Google Gaga. I've 2121 01:51:49,439 --> 01:51:51,680 Speaker 1: been on that. I'd rather have t Higgins, but I've 2122 01:51:51,720 --> 01:51:54,920 Speaker 1: been on it only because of age, not because of 2123 01:51:55,920 --> 01:51:57,800 Speaker 1: getting up there. Hopkins is a better player. You're right 2124 01:51:57,800 --> 01:52:01,000 Speaker 1: in the wheelhouse that first contract, like Boom. But yeah, 2125 01:52:01,080 --> 01:52:03,280 Speaker 1: I've heard I've heard you a boy. I've heard Alex 2126 01:52:03,360 --> 01:52:07,320 Speaker 1: talk about DeAndre Hopkins. Bill O'Brien and I picked San 2127 01:52:07,360 --> 01:52:14,240 Speaker 1: Francisco both twenty Sunday Night, eight Night Lions against the 2128 01:52:14,360 --> 01:52:18,160 Speaker 1: eight Night Packers, pack by four and a half. Easy 2129 01:52:18,200 --> 01:52:22,760 Speaker 1: pick for me, Go pack Go Green Bay Packers. I 2130 01:52:22,800 --> 01:52:26,360 Speaker 1: will lay the points. I'm taking the Packers. I'm taking 2131 01:52:26,400 --> 01:52:29,880 Speaker 1: them to win big. I've been liking the Packers. I've 2132 01:52:29,920 --> 01:52:31,680 Speaker 1: been liking what I'm seeing. They were looking more and 2133 01:52:31,800 --> 01:52:34,080 Speaker 1: more like the team that they were last year towards 2134 01:52:34,120 --> 01:52:36,920 Speaker 1: the end. Tire. I think it took Rogers a month 2135 01:52:37,120 --> 01:52:38,760 Speaker 1: or two to get on the same page with some 2136 01:52:38,840 --> 01:52:41,920 Speaker 1: of those receivers. I love Christian Watts, that guy's awesome. 2137 01:52:42,560 --> 01:52:45,000 Speaker 1: I like Watson too. I think the Packers win this game, 2138 01:52:45,080 --> 01:52:48,760 Speaker 1: big absolutely uh. Never will I be rooting for a 2139 01:52:48,880 --> 01:52:53,080 Speaker 1: different team more than my pick, and I will Sunday night, folks, 2140 01:52:53,800 --> 01:52:56,800 Speaker 1: this is your upset of the week. Lions win out right, 2141 01:52:57,200 --> 01:53:00,320 Speaker 1: I think I just would that be so beautiful? Yeah, 2142 01:53:00,439 --> 01:53:04,519 Speaker 1: Lions win the game. Not a Rogers guy, just an 2143 01:53:04,560 --> 01:53:07,960 Speaker 1: insufferable boom. Doesn't like him? I like him, um, And 2144 01:53:08,040 --> 01:53:10,599 Speaker 1: the good news is they're rounding into their last year's form, 2145 01:53:10,640 --> 01:53:13,600 Speaker 1: which means they'll lose next week. I like talent, you know. 2146 01:53:14,080 --> 01:53:16,640 Speaker 1: I mean, he's without question, the most talented quarterback and 2147 01:53:16,680 --> 01:53:19,600 Speaker 1: football over the last twenty years. Without I mean, to me, 2148 01:53:19,640 --> 01:53:23,040 Speaker 1: there's not even an argument Mahomes. He's more talented than Mahomes. 2149 01:53:23,120 --> 01:53:27,640 Speaker 1: Mahomes is more like, has the ability to play schoolyard 2150 01:53:27,880 --> 01:53:31,240 Speaker 1: than anybody. But just in terms of watching a guy 2151 01:53:31,320 --> 01:53:34,519 Speaker 1: throw a ball. Yeah yeah, I mean, I don't mean 2152 01:53:34,560 --> 01:53:37,760 Speaker 1: to go all Bill on you. I mean, he's like, 2153 01:53:37,960 --> 01:53:39,519 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know how we held him down. 2154 01:53:39,720 --> 01:53:41,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know how we held him to 2155 01:53:41,200 --> 01:53:44,040 Speaker 1: their season highest point total of the whole year. I 2156 01:53:44,080 --> 01:53:49,760 Speaker 1: don't know how we did that so good. I don't 2157 01:53:49,800 --> 01:53:52,439 Speaker 1: mean to sound like Bill or anything, but his his 2158 01:53:52,600 --> 01:53:56,760 Speaker 1: skill set is the best. I think. Now we go 2159 01:53:56,920 --> 01:54:03,920 Speaker 1: back to one o'clock. Uh sorry, yeah, thank you, And 2160 01:54:04,240 --> 01:54:06,800 Speaker 1: Patriots are a little early. I wasn't ready for that. 2161 01:54:06,880 --> 01:54:09,640 Speaker 1: Are at the twelve and three bills? All right? So 2162 01:54:09,760 --> 01:54:15,640 Speaker 1: this spread is dropping precipitously big time. Based on the 2163 01:54:16,280 --> 01:54:20,280 Speaker 1: Tomorrow Hamblin aftermath. In my opinion, it was as high 2164 01:54:20,320 --> 01:54:22,880 Speaker 1: as nine. I believe on Sunday it was eight and 2165 01:54:22,880 --> 01:54:27,840 Speaker 1: a half. It's down to seven. Buffalo by seven. Who Uh? 2166 01:54:29,080 --> 01:54:31,400 Speaker 1: I think Bill Buffalo is gonna win? Um? I just 2167 01:54:31,560 --> 01:54:33,320 Speaker 1: I just think they have I have too much and 2168 01:54:33,480 --> 01:54:35,080 Speaker 1: the Patriots haven't really been able to solve them. I 2169 01:54:35,120 --> 01:54:38,080 Speaker 1: do think the Patriots, uh, you know what. I'm gonna 2170 01:54:38,120 --> 01:54:39,360 Speaker 1: take the Bills to win, but I'm gonna take the 2171 01:54:39,360 --> 01:54:41,400 Speaker 1: Patriots with the points. I just think the Patriots keep 2172 01:54:41,440 --> 01:54:44,000 Speaker 1: it close. Um. I don't know if they get into 2173 01:54:44,040 --> 01:54:47,960 Speaker 1: the thirties, but I'm gonna say Bill's twenty seven Patriots. 2174 01:54:48,280 --> 01:54:52,440 Speaker 1: What was that number again? Seven? Wow? What do you have? 2175 01:54:52,960 --> 01:54:54,600 Speaker 1: It's not my turn? No, what do you have for 2176 01:54:54,680 --> 01:54:56,640 Speaker 1: a number? I don't have a number. Oh. I think 2177 01:54:56,680 --> 01:55:01,000 Speaker 1: he's just moaning up the spread. I know I wish 2178 01:55:01,040 --> 01:55:03,480 Speaker 1: I could take the Patriots in this game. I just 2179 01:55:04,080 --> 01:55:08,080 Speaker 1: you can. I just can't. I can't. I can't see 2180 01:55:08,120 --> 01:55:11,960 Speaker 1: a formula. And it's not even necessarily about Josh Allen 2181 01:55:12,040 --> 01:55:14,280 Speaker 1: versus the Patriots defense. I think I'm more caught up 2182 01:55:14,360 --> 01:55:17,120 Speaker 1: on the Patriots offense actually moving the ball against the Bills, 2183 01:55:17,160 --> 01:55:19,240 Speaker 1: which has been as much of a problem that I 2184 01:55:19,320 --> 01:55:21,280 Speaker 1: feel like goes under the radar because they didn't force 2185 01:55:21,400 --> 01:55:23,520 Speaker 1: Josh Allen to punt and stuff. They can't move the 2186 01:55:23,560 --> 01:55:26,920 Speaker 1: ball on the Bills defense either, So I just think 2187 01:55:26,960 --> 01:55:29,400 Speaker 1: that the Bills end up winning this game something like 2188 01:55:29,560 --> 01:55:32,960 Speaker 1: twenty seven seventeen, and the Patriots offense just can't score 2189 01:55:33,200 --> 01:55:36,240 Speaker 1: enough points to keep up. Yeah. Yeah, I think we 2190 01:55:36,320 --> 01:55:39,360 Speaker 1: all see a kind of a similar game. I do 2191 01:55:39,640 --> 01:55:42,080 Speaker 1: have pause, and that number dropped, and I think it's 2192 01:55:42,160 --> 01:55:45,760 Speaker 1: dropping because the people thinking like I'm thinking. I think 2193 01:55:45,840 --> 01:55:48,840 Speaker 1: it's much more difficult to get ready to play if 2194 01:55:48,880 --> 01:55:50,960 Speaker 1: you're Buffalo than any of the other thirty one teams, 2195 01:55:52,600 --> 01:55:54,200 Speaker 1: and I think that's going to have an impact. I 2196 01:55:54,240 --> 01:55:57,160 Speaker 1: think that will hurt their preparation this week. I don't 2197 01:55:57,200 --> 01:56:00,200 Speaker 1: think they've thought one bit about a game plan maybe 2198 01:56:00,280 --> 01:56:03,680 Speaker 1: until today, so it was the first day they practice. 2199 01:56:03,720 --> 01:56:05,960 Speaker 1: It's fortunate for them it's a division opponent that they 2200 01:56:06,040 --> 01:56:08,680 Speaker 1: just saw. Yeah, so I don't think it's like the 2201 01:56:08,800 --> 01:56:11,840 Speaker 1: end of the world, but I do think Buffalo is 2202 01:56:11,880 --> 01:56:16,160 Speaker 1: just significantly more talented than the Patriots across the board. 2203 01:56:16,520 --> 01:56:23,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go twenty seven thirteen. Yeah. Um, I'm with Evan. 2204 01:56:23,080 --> 01:56:25,200 Speaker 1: I wish I could pick the Patriots. You're allowed to 2205 01:56:26,920 --> 01:56:28,720 Speaker 1: be a big boy. But you know, you know what 2206 01:56:28,800 --> 01:56:30,720 Speaker 1: you said, You're a big boy. You know. Don't tell 2207 01:56:30,800 --> 01:56:33,040 Speaker 1: me that I always picked the Patriots. I don't say. No, 2208 01:56:33,160 --> 01:56:34,920 Speaker 1: I haven't said. I haven't said that this year. I 2209 01:56:35,000 --> 01:56:38,280 Speaker 1: can give you a lot of examples of you picking 2210 01:56:38,320 --> 01:56:41,440 Speaker 1: against the Patriots. Um, and I can't pick them, but 2211 01:56:41,840 --> 01:56:50,720 Speaker 1: I'll take the points. Um, twenty eight, twenty three, that's 2212 01:56:50,760 --> 01:56:54,280 Speaker 1: the score. Three, that's what's going to be. It's like 2213 01:56:54,360 --> 01:56:56,560 Speaker 1: a dramatic pause there. Well, I had to make sure 2214 01:56:56,640 --> 01:56:58,960 Speaker 1: that I was within thee. I knew I could feel 2215 01:56:59,080 --> 01:57:02,280 Speaker 1: like the hamster whe was turning. Yeah, all right, Um, 2216 01:57:02,840 --> 01:57:05,400 Speaker 1: so that's it. Right, there's no Monday night game because 2217 01:57:05,760 --> 01:57:08,000 Speaker 1: last week of the season. No, and I wonder if 2218 01:57:08,080 --> 01:57:11,960 Speaker 1: you know, like the kind of multiple reports about that 2219 01:57:12,040 --> 01:57:17,560 Speaker 1: Cincinnati Buffalo game, no contest or like the eighth you know, 2220 01:57:17,760 --> 01:57:22,280 Speaker 1: eighth stuff to see what was Yeah, that's where I 2221 01:57:22,400 --> 01:57:25,080 Speaker 1: was going. And I just think, doesn't it make a 2222 01:57:25,120 --> 01:57:28,840 Speaker 1: little more sense to like put a decision off until 2223 01:57:28,840 --> 01:57:30,720 Speaker 1: you have to make a decision. I think that's what 2224 01:57:30,800 --> 01:57:34,960 Speaker 1: they're doing. Yeah, like wait to see what happens. Maybe 2225 01:57:34,960 --> 01:57:38,120 Speaker 1: you get lucky, Maybe you get lucky Buffalo wins Kansas 2226 01:57:38,160 --> 01:57:42,000 Speaker 1: City and Cincinnati Louis. Yeah, man, it's unlikely, I get it. 2227 01:57:42,680 --> 01:57:45,680 Speaker 1: But if that happens, then that game truly is irrelevant. 2228 01:57:46,720 --> 01:57:51,680 Speaker 1: Yea perfect But either way, we're playing Sunday at one. 2229 01:57:51,760 --> 01:57:54,320 Speaker 1: It was uncertain up until today in my opinion, but 2230 01:57:54,520 --> 01:57:56,800 Speaker 1: now we know, it seems like it yep yep. So 2231 01:57:57,440 --> 01:58:01,520 Speaker 1: in good news with Damar Hamlin watching on TV right now, 2232 01:58:01,680 --> 01:58:06,560 Speaker 1: the doctors from the UC Health Medical Center are talking 2233 01:58:06,680 --> 01:58:09,400 Speaker 1: and you know, yeah saying he still has a ways 2234 01:58:09,440 --> 01:58:11,440 Speaker 1: to go, but he's you know, communicating, and you know 2235 01:58:11,440 --> 01:58:14,000 Speaker 1: they're still hopeful he's going to resume his life as 2236 01:58:14,040 --> 01:58:16,000 Speaker 1: it was before the incident.
