Yeah, um, 27 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 1: I I thought they'd go down there and put up 28 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: more of a show than they did, especially early. But 29 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 1: we've got to unpack that. We've got to unpack the 30 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: rest of the NFL. We've got to start looking forward 31 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 1: to these wild cut Wildcard game in Buffalo Saturday night. 32 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: Lots going on, lots going on there is Yeah, quick 33 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: turnaround to Saturday.

Sure, the weather's been going around. Yeah 38 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 1: that's what they've been just fifteen and been seeing. Lastly. 39 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,239 Speaker 1: It's gonna be cold night, arctic and arctic. What was 40 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: that thing help the arc last last? Yeah, anyway, let's 41 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 1: let's uh, let's start with the game. Yeah, not good, 42 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: just I mean the twenty twenty one bad Patriots on display. 43 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: And that's how I think started the post game show 44 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 1: of I mean, this is who they are now. I 45 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 1: mean it's hard to you know, sit there and tell 46 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: you like, oh, they're gonna turn it around and hang 47 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: forty and and oh yeah we'll get John dou And 48 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: to kill Harry going in Buffalo and that they'll be 49 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: fire and all the sudden like that's not gonna happen. 50 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 1: It's you know, the penalties, the slow starts. I mean, 51 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: it's just I think it was fifteen plays in, you're 52 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,839 Speaker 1: down fourteen nothing, and you know everything they said last week, 53 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: mccordy specifically saying, hey, we're we're treating this like a 54 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: warm up for the playoff game. We're gonna go down there. 55 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a tough game. We're gonna see, you 56 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 1: know what, what preparations got to be like for when 57 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: we get into the postseason. And you know, so all 58 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: these words are bringing it's as simple as they're starting 59 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: to play tougher teams down the stretch or somewhere along 60 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: the line they lost focus. Yeah, I can't answer that one. 61 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: I do think it's partly that um, but I also 62 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: think that they just don't really look like they've got it, Like, 63 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: they don't look like they want they've wanted to be 64 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: out there the last you know, three out of the 65 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: last four games that they've lost. It just looks like 66 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: they don't really have that fire and energy that you 67 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 1: want to have at the end of the season. And 68 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,920 Speaker 1: that's you know what's what's depressing. Are they suddenly gonna 69 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: find it in Buffalo? I don't. I mean, it's probably 70 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,239 Speaker 1: a long shot. I don't rule it out, but I 71 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 1: think we all know right now what the game has 72 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: to look like for them to win, and it has 73 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: to involve Josh all, I'm not playing great and the 74 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: Patriots like taking the ball, maybe scarring a touchdown. But 75 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: I don't. But that's I agree with Mike, and I 76 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: don't rule it up because I've seen them play clean football. 77 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: You know, It's it's pretty much half and half. Now. 78 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: You could be a pessimist and say, yeah, well they 79 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 1: play clean football against bad teams, and you wouldn't be wrong. Yeah, 80 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: I mean the evidence of the seventeen games Jets is 81 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 1: kind of a split between when they when they take 82 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: care of the ball, they generally did it against the 83 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: Jets or the Jags, or you know those kinds of teams, 84 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: you know, in teams that were overmatched Carolina, Atlanta, you know, Cleveland. 85 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: You know, Cleveland was another one. But I think we've 86 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 1: seen enough evidence that when they're not their own worst enemy, 87 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: they can compete with anybody. And even while not playing 88 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: perfect games against the likes of Dallas, Tampa, Buffalo, you know, 89 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: they've been competitive. Now. I understand that some people might hear, like, 90 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: especially me, saying things like that like this is where 91 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 1: we've come where you know, thumbs up, we're competitive. No, 92 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that. I'm saying I think that they 93 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: they should know that if they can get out of 94 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: their own way, that they'll have a chance to win 95 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: on Saturday night, right, And I think they will. I 96 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: think they will have a chance to win Saturday Night. 97 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: I was listening to one of your shows this morning, Paul, 98 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: and they were saying, you know, in order for the 99 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: Patriots to win this game, John uh Mac Jones is 100 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 1: gonna have to win it. For him. I disagree. The 101 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: defense is going to have to win. Yes, I think 102 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: I agree with you. I think Mac Jones just needs 103 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 1: to write, not lose it for him and stay out 104 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: of the way. And I mean, I think the formula 105 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,600 Speaker 1: is Stevenson and Harris. I mean, those two guys won 106 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: two punch, keep Mac and third and manageable and and 107 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: just do what they've done when they've won those games 108 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: to stay on time. And you know, it's just it's 109 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: it's just strange to me because you see Indianapolis loose 110 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 1: to Jacksonville and you know, just as an example, like 111 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 1: the Patriots, why did the Patriots absolutely hammer terrible teams, 112 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: but they look this bad against good teams, Like it's 113 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 1: just you know, they don't even really play. I mean 114 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 1: maybe Houston was one game where they played kind of 115 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: down to the competitions, you know, so to speak. But 116 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 1: it's just strange they like you see they put fifty 117 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: points up how many times, like you know, maybe this 118 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 1: is just like at the end of the game and 119 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: they just keep hammering it. But it's just such a 120 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,479 Speaker 1: strange thing where you see so many teams that you know, 121 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: lose to Jacksonville or you know, Buffalo lost to Jackson 122 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: have those kind of brain fark games. Patriots didn't really 123 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: have one of those brain fark games. But they couldn't 124 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: really beat any of the good teams this year either. 125 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 1: You know, Thats just it's a strange kind of disparager 126 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: where you think, like, well, they'll get they'll beat one, 127 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: they'll win one of these good tough games that you 128 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: know they'll they'll get Indie on the road, or they'll 129 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: get Buffalo second. But they never really got those, and 130 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 1: they just kind of beat who they were supposed to beat, 131 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 1: and they kind of got outplayed by anybody who had 132 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: a pull swell. Three and seven against teams with winning records, 133 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 1: you know, I think it's two and is it two 134 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: and three against playoff teams? Three and seven against winning records, 135 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: because you know, teams that didn't make the playoffs, like 136 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 1: New Orleans, like Miami. You know, the Chargers as a 137 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 1: team that beat right, didn't that was on the edge. 138 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: That's so they so Mike's point, they didn't farewell when 139 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: the other team had a chance to hit back. Yeah, 140 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: And I think it was in Game two where it 141 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: was you know, you just didn't see a lot of 142 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: resolve of and I think I went through it yesterday. 143 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: I mean all seven losses they had a chance at 144 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: the end, they were within a score or they took 145 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 1: the lead and the defense couldn't get a stop. I mean, 146 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: you just list them right down of all seven games 147 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: where you know they have they have chances. And I 148 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: think that that, for me is like the headline of it. All. 149 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: The offense is what it is. It was new guys, 150 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: it's a rookie quarterback, all those things. But I just 151 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: think the veteran defense is what really really is most 152 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: disappointing to me now is how they faded and they 153 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: haven't really been able to give the offense a chance 154 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: even really in a lot of these games that they lost. 155 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: And I'm not buying the lack of effort thing. I 156 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: am so tired of the flat thing. Yeah, they're they're 157 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: out there trying. I think they're either lined up wrong 158 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: or they're you know, it's executing wrong. But I think 159 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: the effort is there. I don't I'm not questioning that 160 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: at all at all. No, I have maybe have a 161 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: little different perspective on it because I was one of 162 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: the few who had them with a losing record. To 163 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: go into this season. But to me, no, but to me, 164 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: they like, as I look at the schedule, they they 165 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 1: had I had them going seven and ten. They end 166 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: up ten and seven. As you predicted correctly, Fred, there 167 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: were three games that were different than what I had 168 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 1: originally predicted. That. No, but I did. I did say 169 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: ten and seven. He did, he did, he did say 170 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,319 Speaker 1: ten and seven. What did I say? Just out of curiosity, 171 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,199 Speaker 1: I think you said you said eight and nine or 172 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,959 Speaker 1: nine and eight. I said nine or ten wins? Yeah? Um, 173 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: But there were three games made the difference. Uh, the 174 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: Charger game where Herbert threw the interception at the end 175 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: when they were winning, totally blew it for them. The 176 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: Browns got covid on mass and had no players, and 177 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 1: the and mother nature stepped in the Buffalo game, and 178 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,199 Speaker 1: Buffalo still should have won the game. They had the 179 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: ball inside the twenty and couldn't convert. Those three games 180 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: were the difference. Otherwise, in my eyes, they were the 181 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:06,839 Speaker 1: exact team that I thought they were going to be. 182 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: They beat teams they were supposed to beat, and they 183 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: lost to all the good teams. Yeah, I mean I 184 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 1: think those three games, I think that's one way to 185 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: look at that. You could say that I think that's. Yeah, 186 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: I don't think that's unfair. Now, it's I think it's 187 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: an overly pessimistic look at it, which you know, far 188 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: be it for me to criticize people for being over 189 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 1: I mean you can also go the other way and 190 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 1: say a few things that they could have been twelve 191 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 1: and no. But because I look at, my point is 192 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 1: that good teams do that. But you're right, and that's 193 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: you're right, and I think you generally end up around 194 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: where you where you probably should. But I think to 195 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:45,719 Speaker 1: Fred's point, like it had nothing to do with Indianapolis, 196 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 1: that Brandon King jumps offside on a missed field goal, 197 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 1: ye like, which is three huge points yep, you know, 198 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: like in that could be the difference of the game. Now, 199 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,079 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that they should have won the game 200 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 1: and they shouldn't have won that game and all of 201 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: these games like, for the most part, I think the 202 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: defense I think deserves every bit of scorn that you 203 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 1: should have seen Mike on Sunday. By the way, if 204 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: you think he's bad to that, the defense deserves the 205 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: criticism I think that it's receiving. I'm just a little 206 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 1: tired of well, Mac never gets a chance because the 207 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: defense never gets the ball back forward. The reason the 208 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: defense can't allow a first down at the end of 209 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,319 Speaker 1: the game has generally been because of Mac earlier in 210 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 1: the game. Yeah, like that's part of why you lose 211 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: to good team. It's complimentary losing, Yes, just like when 212 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: you you compete in all three phases, all three phases 213 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 1: have let them down in the three out of four, 214 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 1: you know, losses to end of the year. And the 215 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: other thing that I don't want to hear anymore is, well, 216 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: the penalties come in the most in opportune times. If 217 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 1: you're always tight and you don't have a market for error, 218 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 1: they're always in our and you need to there's never 219 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 1: a good time, right, and you listen, you're gonna get penalties. 220 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 1: You're gonna hold sometimes you're gonna you're gonna get caught 221 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,959 Speaker 1: in bad position and get a pass in affairs or 222 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 1: whatever they hurt. What you can't have is Lawrence guy 223 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 1: lining up over the center on a punt on a 224 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: rule that's been in place for about ten years, right, Like, 225 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:15,959 Speaker 1: that can't happen, right, And you know what people people 226 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 1: complain a lot about officiating around here, and no one 227 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 1: does it more than I do. As you know, the 228 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: play before that Mike Hardy and I were watching was 229 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 1: a ridiculous gift that the officials gave the Patriots. It 230 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: was like a third and three and they ran the 231 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: ball and it was right near the line to gain 232 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,439 Speaker 1: and Jalen Waddle came in and just pushed I think 233 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: it was Duke Johnson over the yellow I mean clearly 234 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 1: had the first down. They spotted them like a half 235 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 1: a yard short. They're deep in their own territory with 236 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 1: a big lead, so Flores didn't go for it and 237 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: they punted. So you got the break on a spot 238 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: and then you give the break right back by lining 239 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 1: up across from the long snapper, which is illegal, and 240 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: you give them a first down like that. That's not 241 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: an inopportunity penalty. That's dumb, right, Like that's just dumb. Yeah, 242 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: And like you could complain about bad calls. I didn't 243 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 1: think the Bolden play was a penalty. Now you want 244 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 1: to fly across the field, launching yourself helmet first at 245 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,439 Speaker 1: a guy he missed, right, That's the only reason why 246 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: I didn't think it was a penalty. He missed, but 247 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 1: when it tried to do the referees are thinking, that's 248 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 1: what he tried to do. He tried to hit him 249 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 1: with his head. Yeah, he missed. He wanted to. Yeah, 250 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,559 Speaker 1: but you don't penalize unintent. No, that's why I think 251 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: they shouldn't have called that penalty, right, But I think 252 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: they I think they was terrible all around. It was 253 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 1: all Yeah. I thought the pass interference is on the 254 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 1: Dolphins were terrible, and I thought the pass interference on 255 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: the Patriots was terrible. The Jude On one was a 256 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:41,079 Speaker 1: good call. Don't touch the quarterback when he doesn't have 257 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: the ball. Just keep your hands off of him, right, 258 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: That was just dumb, just keeping your hand yourself in 259 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: a position where the guy's gonna take a dive and 260 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: you're gonna get the call, right, keep your hands off him. Yeah, 261 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: that's that. We were talking a little about joote On upstairs, 262 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 1: and it seems like things snowball with him a little bit. 263 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: You know, it doesn't really he's another one. I mean, 264 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:02,079 Speaker 1: they're gonna eat him this weekend. But that that's the 265 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,439 Speaker 1: kind of play where this seems like a frustration penalty 266 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: where you know, like you know, you're not getting the sack, 267 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 1: the ball's already out, and yeah, you're frustrated. And I 268 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:11,959 Speaker 1: think there's a lot of that going on. I mean, 269 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: he's a huge key, especially if I mean, I'm guessing 270 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 1: we're not I know the news was good on Barmore. 271 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't. I still don't know what's 272 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: going on. Then, I don't think. So I bet we 273 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,319 Speaker 1: don't see him till July. Yeah, I mean, if you 274 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 1: listen to Adrian Phillips after the game, he was literally 275 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:30,439 Speaker 1: in tears saying it was a gruesome injury and he's 276 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: praying for his friend. And so I'm thinking, like, you know, 277 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: freaking uh, can I just ask us something on this 278 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 1: on this Adrian phild because I did not see I 279 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: don't see this game, Okay, can I just And I'm 280 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: being dead serious, I don't know. Are you sure he 281 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,839 Speaker 1: was talking about Barmore and not Quadri Digs from Seattle? Oh? 282 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: You know what, I don't know. I don't know. I 283 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 1: assume because I turned around and goes, he's talking about 284 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: Barmow right now, said yeah, because you sent you sent 285 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 1: a text about that, and I had because we're doing 286 00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:59,599 Speaker 1: the show, so we're not privy to all of the 287 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: post audio as had happened, because he did talk about 288 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: digs and Quadriy Diggs, by all accounts, suffered in absolutely 289 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:10,559 Speaker 1: horrific like dislocated ankle, broken tibia, kind of maybe a 290 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 1: horrible maybe I got maybe totally you know, And I'm 291 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: just I'm not saying that that's what he was talking about, 292 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:17,839 Speaker 1: but maybe he was referring to dig. Yeah. I was 293 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: listening on the bus Seattle Safe. I could have been wrong. 294 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: I just thought, oh, jeez, you know Barnmore. Oh my god, 295 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: definitely possible, as I did see he was, you know, 296 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 1: had been talking about digs. The Barnmore thing is still strange. 297 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: I'm just saying that that particular Philip's angle of it. 298 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: It reminded me. And we talked about this yesterday of 299 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 1: the Remember the Gronkowski knee injury in Denver when he 300 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: was like rolling on the ground. Yeah, yeah, and he 301 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: but he didn't get carted off the field. No, Like 302 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: that's the thing that I just Yeah, what I say 303 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: is he couldn't put any weight on it too. Yeah, 304 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 1: who knows? Who knows that Maybe he was just scared 305 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 1: in the moment. Maybe he thought he had done something 306 00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: that maybe he got lucky and this it didn't. It 307 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: wasn't bad. But I mean, I understand what Mike is saying. 308 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 1: I think, you know, you can't really count on him now, 309 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: I wouldn't. Okay. So Chris our webmaster, says he was 310 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 1: talking about Quandry Diggs. Okay, okay, good, yeah, good.

Good. Thanks, pop. Okay, I'm with 315 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: you now. Well, so let's hope. I mean, but dude, 316 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: you don't think bar has any shot. I don't know. 317 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: That's just my and based on what he looked, I 318 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: don't know. Maybe. I mean, Bill said like, I don't know, 319 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: I don't I don't rule it out. But he already 320 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 1: had a knee. Yeah that he was. What I rule 321 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: out is him being like effective yeah right, yeah, that's 322 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: and a huge piece of it. I mean, a team 323 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: that loves to pass and he's been your best kind 324 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 1: of interior predator, penetrator guy. It's gonna put more pressure 325 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: I think on Jude on to you know, be productive, 326 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 1: and you know, just it's so hard playing Josh Allen 327 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 1: keeping him in there, and then he's got to be 328 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: better at that. Jud's got to be more disciplined. And 329 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 1: it's just when I watch him now, it's it seems 330 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 1: like he I don't want to say he doesn't like it, 331 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: but it just seems like he's one of those guys 332 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: sometimes I wonder where he just wants to go get 333 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: the quarterback and stop with the holding up the tackle, 334 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 1: not letting him out, you know, playing controlled like the 335 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: Patriots so often asked their guys to do. Um. I 336 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 1: don't know, there's just that I don't know. I don't 337 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 1: know what the reason is for the drop off in 338 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 1: production from him, but I think that's been one of 339 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 1: the one of the keys down the end. I mean 340 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 1: a couple plays by him here down the stretcher. It 341 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: might have made a difference in a couple of those 342 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 1: games because he gets held every play. Saw I've got 343 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 1: the receipts. You know. The other thing that I noticed 344 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 1: that I felt Whys had a terrible game. I don't 345 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 1: know if you had him on your bad list, but 346 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: he couple penalty He's just not you know, not a 347 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: factor in the run game. Why has had penalties? Yeah, 348 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 1: I think he did any penalty? Yeah he was Yeah, 349 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: why why has had a bad game? Uh? And then um, 350 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: I thought that. You know, Stevenson got hurt and then 351 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,440 Speaker 1: he came back and he looks like the better running 352 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 1: than does of the two. I agree, you know, I'm 353 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,479 Speaker 1: saying that for weeks. Yeah, the wide zone running off 354 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: the side, I thought that was a fiction. The second medal, 355 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 1: he's just when he gets stuffed up the middle, he 356 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: has the ability to bounce it that I don't think 357 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: Harris does. Yeah, I like them both. I think they've 358 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: both been wildly productive. Yep. I think they've both been 359 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 1: really good mets. I mean, let's face it, it's the 360 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 1: entirety of the offense. Yeah, but I like I like 361 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 1: Stevenson a little more. Yeah. And then Mac, you know, 362 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,400 Speaker 1: he's he's playing more like a rookie now than he did. 363 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: And maybe it's because there's more on his shoulders now. Um. 364 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 1: But you know a lot of times, like people will say, oh, no, 365 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 1: one's getting open. He's he's not getting rid of the 366 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 1: ball quick enough. Like there was one player I forget 367 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,240 Speaker 1: what was going on. It was the middle of the game, 368 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: and um, you know it was it turned out to 369 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 1: be an incomplete pass and everybody said nobody was open. 370 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,159 Speaker 1: But I look back on it when Henry came out 371 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: of his break and I think, I forget who the 372 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: other one. When they came out of the break, they 373 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 1: were open. So if the pass comes with the out 374 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 1: on time, he's gonna have open receivers. He can't wait 375 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: for them after the break to just be there and 376 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 1: then the ball comes. He's got to pass these guys open. 377 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 1: And you know that comes from confidence. You know, first 378 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 1: it comes from knowing what the routes are, and I'm 379 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 1: I'm assuming he knows what the routes are going to be. 380 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: But then it comes from confidence of just throwing it 381 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 1: before they break, so as they break, the ball arrives 382 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 1: and he's just not doing that. Yeah, it's like I 383 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 1: feel like you get in the league. It's almost you 384 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 1: don't know what you don't know. And I think it 385 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,680 Speaker 1: was also new to him and he was able to 386 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,439 Speaker 1: maybe just had had less on his mind. And I think, 387 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 1: as you said, it just feels like things have built 388 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: up on him and it's a lot and he just 389 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: on one hand, you want to see him hit the 390 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 1: reset button, which I'm sure he'll do this offseason. But 391 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:01,679 Speaker 1: it is weird. And we were talking to scal yesterday 392 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:03,399 Speaker 1: about it. It was, you know, you expect it to 393 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:05,880 Speaker 1: be and I think we And I was thinking too, Pat. 394 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 1: I wanted to bring this up because I remember you 395 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: talking about the feeling after the nineteen ninety three season 396 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 1: Withdrew and you know, so I was just kind of 397 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:16,879 Speaker 1: thinking generally about, you know, how that season went and 398 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 1: how it ended, and right like they at the end 399 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 1: they started won the last four. Yeah, so you know, 400 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,479 Speaker 1: and I think that's like what you think the narrative 401 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: usually should be with a rookie quarterback of oh, well, 402 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,159 Speaker 1: he's gonna take some lumps, but then by the end 403 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: of the season, it's all gonna be starting to click. 404 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: We're gonna see it. And that's what's weird about it 405 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,679 Speaker 1: is he looked really good and control early and now 406 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 1: it's seeing That's the worry for me is not necessarily 407 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: how he's finishing, because I think it's what you said 408 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 1: at the beginning of the show, Fred, I think it 409 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: has a lot to do with the way the schedule fell. Yeah, 410 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 1: Like so it's three of the last four, Well, what 411 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 1: was the the one that well, Mac was great? Matt 412 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 1: one like, so it's not just that Mac went down. No, 413 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 1: he had a tough game against India, a tough game 414 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 1: against Buffalo, played Jacksonville. He was same guy we saw 415 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 1: all year. Then it was tough against Miami. Again, Like, 416 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 1: I worry about their ability in general, and this is 417 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: not a Mac thing. This is a Patriots thing. Yeah, 418 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:13,159 Speaker 1: their ability in general to compete on a consistent basis 419 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 1: against teams that are like them or better. Yeah. I 420 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: think that's the interesting point of it is in those games, 421 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: how much is it putting it on Mac playing bad? 422 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: Or was it you know, against Jacksonville they all played great, 423 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:25,919 Speaker 1: The defense played good, the running game played well. They 424 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 1: all together and so he looked good. I think it's 425 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: it's you know, next year going forward. It's the kind 426 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 1: of thing of you know, does Mac have the ability 427 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:35,400 Speaker 1: to snap the team into gear? And I don't think 428 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 1: anybody on this snap them into gear? Right. You know. 429 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: It's like someone said to me, you know, do you 430 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: think if the Patriots played like they did against Miami 431 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: against Jacksonville how it would have gone? I said, they 432 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 1: would have won fifty to ten, Like that's what it 433 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 1: requires against Jacksonville. Like, to lose to Jacksonville, you have 434 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: to do what the Colts did and like just mess 435 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,359 Speaker 1: it all up and turn the ball over and you know, 436 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 1: miss out on all kinds of opportunities. Just played poorly 437 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,680 Speaker 1: all around. I don't think that. I don't think that 438 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: the Patriots just played poorly all around. Against Miami. They 439 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 1: did some things poorly. There's no doubt. You can't give 440 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:10,639 Speaker 1: him a pick six to start the game like that. 441 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 1: But against Jacksonville, yeah, maybe you allowed Jacksonville. They did. 442 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 1: In a matter of fact, they allowed Jacksonville to put 443 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 1: a drive together right off the I think the second 444 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 1: drive of the game. They went right down the field 445 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 1: and kicked a field goal. But you know, you sort 446 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: of get your bearings and it's Jacksonville, so you slow 447 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: them down. They never really got their bearings against Miami. 448 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 1: I know there was a lot of talk about, well 449 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: they held him to one hundred yards passing because they 450 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: did it by design. Yeah, they did RPOs and all 451 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: that stuff, and they ran it right down like that. 452 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 1: I mean they what was what was he like fifty? 453 00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 1: He had a good percentage again, Yeah, fifteen for twenty two. 454 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 1: They threw for one hundred and nine yards because that's 455 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: all they wanted to throw for, right, it's not because 456 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,479 Speaker 1: the Patriots shut him down and didn't let him throw 457 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 1: for any more than a hundred. As a matter of fact, 458 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 1: you know, Miami's like one of the worst running teams 459 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,400 Speaker 1: in the league. I think they were thirty first coming 460 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,160 Speaker 1: in and they ran for one hundred and sixty seven 461 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:11,120 Speaker 1: yards or something like that. It was three nine five, 462 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 1: four and a half a carry on forty and again, 463 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 1: you know, people will say, well that's effort. It wasn't effort. 464 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 1: It was just your they're getting caught in the wrong alignments, 465 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 1: guessing wrong, you know. Um, yeah, the RPOs looked like 466 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 1: they yeah, took them. They did, and exactly it almost 467 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 1: seemed like, you know, back in Sperano with that wildcat 468 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 1: game where they had no idea what was coming. And 469 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 1: I said, I wrote, I said, the Patriots defense is 470 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 1: on their heels, yeah, you know, and no real long 471 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 1: runs to skew the numbers. Yeah, they had like I 472 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 1: think they had like one twenty something yard run. Yeah, 473 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 1: they had. They had a twenty seven from Duke Johnson. 474 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 1: That's kind of what the last run like, that's what 475 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:53,919 Speaker 1: they were consistent success um. But I agree with how 476 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: you put it front. I think that's you know, they 477 00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: just and I wouldn't even say like it was an 478 00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:59,719 Speaker 1: indictment on the run defense. It was just an indictment 479 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 1: on the defense overall that they were just didn't know 480 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: what was coming. They looked ill prepared for the RPOs 481 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 1: that you knew were coming. And I was borderline stunt 482 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: with the first drive because this is the third time 483 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: they've now seen this iteration of the Dolphins offense. Yeah, 484 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: and it looked exactly like it did in the other 485 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: two games, Like two was going to get the ball 486 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 1: on a script. He's going to get the ball out 487 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: really quick. He's gonna get the ball in the hands 488 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:26,120 Speaker 1: of you know, Wattle and Parker, and he's gonna mix 489 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 1: in a couple of runs. He's gonna throw it to 490 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 1: Kisiki or someone like that, and that's it. There's like 491 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,160 Speaker 1: there was no secrets, and for the third straight time, 492 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,920 Speaker 1: it worked and they were able to get the lead 493 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,199 Speaker 1: doing exactly what they wanted to do, and they were 494 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 1: able to close it out. Oh yeah, but they wanted 495 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 1: to do too, which was the night the book, the 496 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 1: book end of both that first game of the season, 497 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: and then there was a play that was eerily close too, 498 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,920 Speaker 1: Like there was a it may have been the three 499 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: and out that they caused, or it was one of 500 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 1: the punts that they caused. Started off with a false 501 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: start penalt. He's now it's like very similar to that 502 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 1: last drive in the first meeting, right, So it's first 503 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 1: and fifteen. They backed up at like their own ten. 504 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 1: He throws a slant and it was the throw was 505 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 1: slightly low, It's like knee high, and I think it 506 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: was waddle. It may not have been waddle, but had 507 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 1: two hands on it and no near him. Yeah, Like 508 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 1: he was right it was gonna go right up to 509 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: seem I'm not telling you it was a touchdown, I remember, 510 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,680 Speaker 1: but it was going to be game. I said that 511 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 1: if he got that one, he was off to the 512 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 1: races and yah, and there's just nobody there and you're like, 513 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:32,440 Speaker 1: what is going And the throw was a little low 514 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 1: and the guy dropped it right. Um, I remember that, 515 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 1: And all he was thinking of was that slant on 516 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: first and fifteen. Here in week one, it was like 517 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 1: the same play, yeah, yea yeah, um so we've we've 518 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: got that to talk about. I'm sure everyone wants to 519 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:49,439 Speaker 1: weigh in some other news. Uh, the Broncos have requested 520 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 1: an interview with Gerard Mayo. Correct. Um, So there's the 521 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 1: I mean, we obviously have a lot of important stuff 522 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 1: to worry about Saturday night with a playoff game, but 523 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 1: it's already a fascinating Black Monday. Yeah, with the coaching 524 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: stuff and Brian Flores because that one, everyone's just saying, 525 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 1: you know, Miami doesn't know what they're doing, blah blah blah, 526 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,400 Speaker 1: and that could be true, but let's wait to see 527 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: what happens there, because I think this could be if 528 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,360 Speaker 1: they end up getting to Shaun Watson. I think that's 529 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,959 Speaker 1: why they get rid of Flores because he didn't want them, 530 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,159 Speaker 1: and I think Chris Greer does, and I think it 531 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: was I think that makes a lot of sense. But 532 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 1: I just I wonder if Deshaun Watson wants them without 533 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 1: Brian Flores's Yeah, yeah, I don't know. Can I just 534 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 1: say one thing, Let's let's see what happens in Miami 535 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 1: and then we'll figure out because we don't know. Why 536 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:37,200 Speaker 1: would they do that? Yeah, I would not have fired 537 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 1: Byan Flores. I think he is a good coach. I 538 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,360 Speaker 1: think he looks like he knows what he's doing. It's 539 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 1: hard to tell, you know, game in, game out, but 540 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:48,400 Speaker 1: I just want to say this from afar. Okay, they 541 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 1: very similar to the Patriots, invested a ton of money 542 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: in free agency two years ago after getting the culture 543 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: established with a bad year in year one on the Flores, 544 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 1: they invested a lot of money. They won ten games. 545 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 1: They expected to be a playoff team this year. Okay, 546 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 1: and I understand, you know, one and seven, seven and one, 547 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: you know and all that stuff. They lost to Jacksonville 548 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: and they lost to Atlanta. Yeah, you win one of 549 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: those two games and you're in the playoffs. So I 550 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 1: think it's unfair that Brian Flores got got fired. But 551 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 1: I don't think it's this travesty that it was made 552 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,120 Speaker 1: out to be yesterday on Twitter. Right, they were supposed 553 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 1: to be better than this. Yeah, they were supposed to 554 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 1: be better. Now. I think that the blame. I think 555 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 1: they missed the guy that they should have fired. I 556 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: think Chris Greer should have gone. Yeah, I think they've 557 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:42,679 Speaker 1: had enough missus in the draft. Well that's the thing 558 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 1: hurt Brian Flores, the coach, it doesn't have control. The 559 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 1: one consistent thing in all of this the years that 560 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 1: they haven't been good, has been the GM. He's well, 561 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 1: he's been around for a long time. Not as the GM, 562 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: but he's been around that organization since two thousand. Yeah, 563 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 1: and you know, we obviously have tie to Chris, you know, 564 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 1: you know the Greer family a little bit Mike, so 565 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,440 Speaker 1: we have some ties there and I think he's a 566 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:11,159 Speaker 1: really good guy. But I mean, just the misses in 567 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 1: the draft. You know, I don't have all the names 568 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 1: in front of me because I don't have it committed 569 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: to memory like I would the Patriots draft. But they've 570 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 1: had some disappointments and that team was supposed to be good. 571 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,680 Speaker 1: The quarterback is not terrible. He's not the answer. I 572 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,159 Speaker 1: don't think he's the answer. He's not terrible, and he 573 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 1: doesn't cost them games. I think there's a lot of 574 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,440 Speaker 1: similarities between the two teams, to be honest with you. 575 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 1: And if I'm if I'm Miami and I'm looking at it, 576 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 1: I'm like, we lost to Jacksonville, we lost to Atlanta. 577 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: That's why we're not in the playoffs. Like I'm not 578 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 1: looking you didn't have to win the super Bowl this year, 579 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,440 Speaker 1: but you couldn't get in the playoffs. Well that Pittsburgh. 580 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:53,119 Speaker 1: Do you think Miami's better than Pittsburgh. I do, I do. 581 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: I think they're better than Pittsburgh. I not a way 582 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:57,640 Speaker 1: to get in the playoffs. I never thought of Pittsburgh 583 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 1: as a playoff team all year. They never ever looked 584 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,680 Speaker 1: like a play and I understand they got there in 585 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: a technicality. I don't care. Yeah, Miami should have gotten 586 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 1: on a technicality too, you know. The technicality should have 587 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 1: been you beat all the teams that you should beat. Yeah, 588 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,680 Speaker 1: and they didn't. They lost the two of them. The 589 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 1: Chargers should have been a playoff team too, and they 590 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,159 Speaker 1: I agree. Yeah, Well, we'll never get it. But I'd 591 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,639 Speaker 1: love to hear what Kyle van Noy's perspective on it was. 592 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 1: Because he was one of the big fans agents they got. 593 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 1: That's another part. Then they turned and got rid of him. 594 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 1: Something was going on there. I don't know, and I'm 595 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: not even talking Vannois specifically, but there's some of that 596 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 1: that's gone on in Miami in the last three years. Yeah, 597 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 1: I think is it the GM's fault. I don't know, 598 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 1: I think I kind of think it is. Yeah, but 599 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: I just think that you know, whenever something's universal on Twitter, 600 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: they generally have it wrong, right, Yeah, when there's no 601 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 1: dissenting opinion, generally that think there's definitely been something else 602 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 1: is going on turmoil. Um, you know in the front 603 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: office there between coaching and so, let's see what moves 604 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: they make and then we might get a clearer understanding 605 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: about why they got rid of Flora's. Yeah, I think 606 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: what my perspective a little skewed, just because I think 607 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 1: Patriots fans were overwhelmingly like, thank god, he's beating us. 608 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I think everybody has respect for the job 609 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: that he's done, at least as far as it goes 610 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 1: competing with the Patriots and sweeping him this year. I 611 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: mean that that's probably a little bit. He went four 612 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 1: and two, it's three years against the Patriots. No one 613 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 1: does that. Yeah, crazy? So all right, and then um, yeah, 614 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: then all the other coaching firings Detroit, Chicago to Chicago. 615 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 1: Was that a surprise? Zimmer? You know, here's another one. Okay, 616 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 1: along those lines, it was outrage that the guy who 617 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 1: was I think under five hundred and there's three years 618 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: got fired, but the guy who's like fifteen games over 619 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 1: five hundred got fired and no one batter than I. Yeah, 620 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 1: that see that was I'll tell you who thinks a 621 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 1: lot of Mike Zimmer as a coach is Bill Belichill. 622 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 1: Bill does. But Zimmer seemed to change a little bit 623 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 1: in the last couple of years his own personality, Like, yeah, 624 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 1: I think I think it was time yeah for that 625 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 1: one again from Afar. Yeah, I think that was just 626 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 1: probably that need to change was eight years, I think 627 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: eight or nine. I think he had eight years and 628 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 1: went to the playoffs three times, and he is like 629 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 1: somewhere between ten and fifteen games over five hundred for 630 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: his career. Yep, you know. And again whenever everybody that's 631 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 1: a rageous right something, And so it's bit and bears 632 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 1: GM and coach right, Uh, Giants, GM left, Kettleman retired, Uh, 633 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 1: Spielman's gone Zimmer Spilman. So that the NFC North has 634 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 1: the Giants think is interesting to me too, because I 635 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 1: wonder if the GM comes in and says, yeah, we 636 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: gotta get rid of that. Yeah. You wonder if if 637 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 1: Mara is gonna let the GM do that, yeah, possibly, yeah, yeah, 638 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 1: And I'll tell you, if I were a Giants fan, 639 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: I'd be really unsettled with the rationale that's coming out 640 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 1: of there. Like we're on this coaching carousel, like it 641 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 1: was Macadoo for two years, it was Shermour for two years. 642 00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 1: We don't want to gas Judge in two years. That's 643 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: exactly the wrong reason. If you don't think you got 644 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 1: the guy right, like that's I mean, fail fast, Yes, 645 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: fail fast. I mean if you're unsure at all, I 646 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,920 Speaker 1: think you're better off making the move. Did you say 647 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 1: Detroit too? We did mention Detroit? What do we what? 648 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 1: What happened to Detroit? But nothing happened there? Right? I 649 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 1: met Minnesota? Oh okay, okay, Minnesota and Chicago. Yeah, I 650 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: was gonna say I didn't the fighting Campbell's is still there, Okay, 651 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 1: I will have to say. And I know I wrote 652 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: it like three different times in the notes and the 653 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 1: weekly notes, but I just I do applaud how how 654 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: hard they played all year? Yeah, I know that should 655 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 1: be nothing that's applauded. Yeah, it's about you feel good? 656 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,560 Speaker 1: Story three? What are they? Three? Win and win tie 657 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 1: like and the and the last one they accost themselves 658 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: a chance with the number one pick with the last 659 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: win Sunday, Right, they could have the number one pick 660 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 1: with Jacksonville winning, Right, We're gonna buy the kneecap off. 661 00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 1: I don't think it really matters. I don't think this 662 00:31:57,920 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 1: draft is one of those that you have to have 663 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: the number one pick. It looks like it's one of 664 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 1: those drafts that it's not really not really good at 665 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 1: the top. It might be deep, but not star him. 666 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:12,840 Speaker 1: And then then Georgia beats Alabama, and my takeaway there is, Okay, 667 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 1: you didn't have your tight end to start, and you 668 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 1: lost your number one receiver, but your two receivers, but 669 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: be Metchi and Williams. That was different, That's what I mean. 670 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,720 Speaker 1: But everybody on that team is a high, highly regarded 671 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 1: recruit or were they not ready to play? Yeah, Like 672 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 1: you saw how many passes they dropped. I know I 673 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,680 Speaker 1: felt bad, but so I mean, I was rooting for Georgia, 674 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 1: strongly rooting. I just figured, but I just figured another 675 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,400 Speaker 1: kid from Alabama would emerge and they were good. You 676 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: can they didn't, but you could see how good they were. 677 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 1: Like the talent that eighty four kids, yeah, would get open. 678 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 1: But he wouldn't catch it, but he caught every other one, 679 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 1: you know, and then the eleven guy did the same thing. 680 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: The guy was really disappointing, I think for them. Billy 681 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 1: O'Brien looks like he wanted to kill the Billings lead 682 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 1: kids down number nine and Teapot was going on, Oh yeah, 683 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 1: and I guess that guy's been in and out of 684 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 1: Saban's doghouse a lot um. I was watching some of 685 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: the pregame stuff on that. It was a really bad game, 686 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,479 Speaker 1: quite frankly, until like the last twelve minutes. Then all 687 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: of a sudden, Alabama scored to take the lead and 688 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 1: Georgia responded, and then Georgia took over right, but they 689 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:18,959 Speaker 1: really needed team could do anything for the better part 690 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 1: of three quarters. Yep. I was watching the Jimbo Fisher 691 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 1: on ESPN two. They were doing like a film breakdown, 692 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:26,680 Speaker 1: which I don't know what I was expecting, but I 693 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 1: did they need to tell those guys they were on 694 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 1: TV because it was just a lot of murmuring side conversations. 695 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: You know, I got there a cover two what was 696 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 1: seven over there? And then backside right? Yeah, what are 697 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 1: they saying? What's going on? I was telling dude, this 698 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 1: is would be right in my element. You know, we 699 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 1: here in the Southeastern Conference feel very strong about our program, 700 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,719 Speaker 1: and you know, when and we recruited that young man 701 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,959 Speaker 1: and he's a tremendous individual, and you know, we got 702 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 1: a chance to meet his family and and you know, 703 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,760 Speaker 1: he's got a nice mom and paw, you know, and uh, 704 00:33:57,920 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 1: he's gonna do a lot of good things. You know, 705 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 1: I'm really happy for him. Did you guys see Saban 706 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 1: post game with his two guys? Yeah? I saw that. 707 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 1: That was kind of cool. Yeah, yeah, he had a 708 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 1: quarterback and uh the guy that receiver they got hurt? 709 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 1: Oh was it the receiver? Post game? Okay, I think 710 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 1: that's who Wasn't it was Nick Saban sitting between his 711 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,799 Speaker 1: quarterback and uh Williams? Was that who it was? Well, 712 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 1: Williams is one of the receiver. Yeah, that's the guy 713 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:22,800 Speaker 1: to go. Yeah, they were up there. They're any update 714 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 1: on that injury, by the way, not that I saw, 715 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 1: but uh, but they they finished the press conference and 716 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 1: the two guys went to get up and Nick like 717 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:33,040 Speaker 1: motioned for them to sit down, and then he just 718 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: kind of went into a thing of just thanking them, 719 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,120 Speaker 1: and you know, saying how much these two guys meant 720 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 1: to the program, and you know they won't be defined 721 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:40,920 Speaker 1: by this loss. And it was just, you know, kind 722 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,120 Speaker 1: of one of those moments where Nick Saban kind of 723 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:45,359 Speaker 1: grabbed the mic and and you know, just acknowledged two 724 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 1: of his players. Yeah, it was it was It was cool. 725 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: It was cool. You could see, uh, you know, they 726 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 1: were obviously very very upset after the loss, but that 727 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: was a nice moment. Yeah. I like Young. I don't 728 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:56,959 Speaker 1: think he's an NFL talent though. Yeah, he's just Yeah, 729 00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,960 Speaker 1: he's amazingly accurate. He reminds me of Bree the way 730 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 1: he just throws it in the ball, ends up right 731 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,919 Speaker 1: in the right spot. He's really good. You know, he's 732 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:09,719 Speaker 1: he's amazingly accurate. All Right. Eight five five past five 733 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 1: hundred is the Ace ticket hut line. Eight five five 734 00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 1: past five hundred, Web radio at Patriots dot com is 735 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 1: the email address. Let's see what everybody else wants to 736 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 1: talk about. We'll start with Chris with a T I 737 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,239 Speaker 1: A oh no, it's the other Christian and then La, 738 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 1: what's up Christian? Hey you guys, how are you doing today? Good? 739 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 1: You know, after the disappointing uh uh. You know, around 740 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:35,279 Speaker 1: the football this week, I'm I'm doing okay. So I'm 741 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:38,360 Speaker 1: not gonna lay out the good and bad and everything 742 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 1: that I thought went wrong. I'm gonna say this, we 743 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: have an opportunity. It beats the Bills this week. I 744 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:47,880 Speaker 1: know it comes sometimes comes down to play a mistake 745 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 1: free football. My question today for you guys, what more 746 00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 1: than mistake free football do we need to beat them 747 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 1: and to stop Josh Allen? Well, I think I think 748 00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 1: the old line. It's to me, it always starts with 749 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:03,239 Speaker 1: the old line. They've got to win so that the 750 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,840 Speaker 1: running game can get established and and then you go 751 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 1: from there. You know, last week you were missing High Tower, 752 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:15,359 Speaker 1: you're missing Bryant, you're missing Dugger. You know, maybe maybe 753 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 1: that did mean something. You know, hopefully you get them back, 754 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, It's just it's it's such a simple game. 755 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:24,759 Speaker 1: And I don't know how how do you stop Josh Allen. 756 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:26,799 Speaker 1: It's just it's they didn't really stop him at all 757 00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 1: last time they played him. They didn't really stop him 758 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 1: at all last year when they played him in that 759 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:33,480 Speaker 1: second game here. But I think you're right. I mean, 760 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:36,759 Speaker 1: that's the simple that's just like play clean football and 761 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 1: try to figure out a way to at least get 762 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 1: stops on him, just a couple stops. I mean that 763 00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 1: might be what's realistic. I think that's the bigger key. 764 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,680 Speaker 1: And I know Mike Snike said it about the defense 765 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 1: earlier in the in the show, like, I think you 766 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:49,759 Speaker 1: can run the ball. I think you ran the ball 767 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 1: really well in both games. I mean people only remember 768 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 1: the first one because they didn't throw it at all, 769 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:57,600 Speaker 1: but they ran it, I think better in the second game. 770 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,759 Speaker 1: They averaged, you know, over five yards to carry in 771 00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:04,799 Speaker 1: the second game. But you need to slow down, Josh Allen. 772 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: You can't get in a shootout if you want to 773 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 1: try to run the ball down and score over thirty points. 774 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:14,279 Speaker 1: That's gonna be hard to do. Last night, as as 775 00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 1: I do, we play the Bills and mad Men. Campbell 776 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,120 Speaker 1: my nine year old, and so we played man. He 777 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,360 Speaker 1: just I accidentally played man coverage. Everybody's running down the 778 00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:23,840 Speaker 1: field all side. Josh Allen just takes off, you know, 779 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 1: for like thirty yards. It's exactly what he does in 780 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 1: real life. And like Campbell's getting so mad, and I'm 781 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:30,040 Speaker 1: just like, I know, I know that's what he does. 782 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:33,920 Speaker 1: He's good. He's a good player. I hope he's off. 783 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:42,320 Speaker 1: Patty's an agawam, what's up Patty? Good afternoon, gentlemen. Heybat So, 784 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:44,360 Speaker 1: I have a little bit of a different question, and 785 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 1: it's uh got to do with big concern of mine. 786 00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 1: I think it should be a big concern of any 787 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 1: any one of US Patriots fans. And I'm not I'm 788 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:56,160 Speaker 1: not like I'm prefacing this by saying I don't think 789 00:37:56,239 --> 00:38:00,359 Speaker 1: the season's over. I'm looking forward to watch Saturday's game. Um, 790 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:06,840 Speaker 1: But to me, I think it almost seems like a 791 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 1: foregone conclusion that they they sort of have to franchise J. C. 792 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:14,280 Speaker 1: Jackson at the before the start of next year because 793 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,800 Speaker 1: they don't really have any bodies in the secondary aside 794 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 1: from I mean, if they don't, what are they left with. 795 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:22,920 Speaker 1: They're left with Jalen Mills, Juwan Williams, Jonathan Jones, and 796 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 1: Miles Bryant on the roster right and well in Phillips. 797 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: But I'm more specifically talking about cornerbacks, and if they 798 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 1: don't franchise them, are they just gonna expect of rookie 799 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:38,600 Speaker 1: to come in and and and the I mean next 800 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:41,640 Speaker 1: one next year could be the defensive teardown. Yeah, you know, 801 00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,279 Speaker 1: who knows. I don't you know, I don't know what 802 00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 1: they're gonna do. You know, it's gonna be interesting. I 803 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,799 Speaker 1: would pay the man, I would. I think Patty's right 804 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:53,000 Speaker 1: in that they probably need to franchise them just to 805 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 1: have some sort of consistent playmaker there from time. Yeah. Um, 806 00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:00,800 Speaker 1: and maybe you work out a long term deal with 807 00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 1: him at some point, but I think he wants to 808 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 1: get as much into free agency as anybody. Um, so 809 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 1: it might be difficult if you do franchise him, whether 810 00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 1: or not he agrees to sign it. Maybe he does 811 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:15,759 Speaker 1: just because it's a huge payday guaranteed. But I think 812 00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 1: it's gonna be, uh the talked about thing this offseason. Absolutely, 813 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 1: I mean that's huge. The first thing. I just that's 814 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 1: got so many guys up and and how are you 815 00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 1: gonna a lot what you have and and distribute it? 816 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 1: And you know, what do you think is the weakness 817 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,000 Speaker 1: of the Patriots defense right now? Like I think that's 818 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 1: like where you got to jump off and say, you know, 819 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,920 Speaker 1: how do you feel about this defensive front that you 820 00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 1: paid a bunch of money last offseason? Four? I know? 821 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:43,080 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you know, like you know, are you ready 822 00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 1: to roll with it with that group again? How do 823 00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 1: we feel? Uh, you know, what happens to High Tower, 824 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 1: what happens to mcquarity. I mean, it's just it's well 825 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,520 Speaker 1: and then it's a lot of questions the Jackson thing. 826 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,319 Speaker 1: And I agree that on the surface, when you look 827 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 1: at it, like you have to have to you have 828 00:39:56,840 --> 00:40:00,320 Speaker 1: to retain them, but that doesn't make you any better. Like, 829 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,239 Speaker 1: so you retain a guy that's your number one corner, right, 830 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,480 Speaker 1: that's good, but you haven't done anything to make yourself 831 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 1: any better. And you've probably invested a lot of money 832 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:12,799 Speaker 1: in it. So I understand there's there's two sides to that. Yeah, 833 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:14,440 Speaker 1: and I think you might look at it, Bill might 834 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 1: look at it a little bit differently than we do. Yeah, 835 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:17,759 Speaker 1: I mean, maybe you know, if you have plans to 836 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:21,800 Speaker 1: use that money in a different way. Yeah, okay, but 837 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:23,879 Speaker 1: you know, I you know, I don't know, You're gonna 838 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:25,839 Speaker 1: have to pay somebody somewhere. Yeah, And I think it'll 839 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 1: it'll signal philosophically. How do they feel. Do they still 840 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:30,920 Speaker 1: feel how they felt when they went out and got 841 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,480 Speaker 1: to leave and Breevous and Gilmore to a huge car? 842 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,000 Speaker 1: Do you feel like that's a you know, a number 843 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:38,480 Speaker 1: one need or do you think that, hey, we can 844 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:40,919 Speaker 1: maybe skimp on the back end, find a mid range 845 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,319 Speaker 1: free agent and maybe a high ranking rookie. Let's put 846 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:45,360 Speaker 1: this money toward the front seven and getting you know, 847 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,440 Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, and I don't know all 848 00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:50,239 Speaker 1: the available free agents, but you know what if there 849 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:54,759 Speaker 1: were a Guilmore right and would you feel better about 850 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 1: giving the money to a Gilmore coming into the team 851 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:00,359 Speaker 1: and then Gilmore now or Gilmore back when that don't 852 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:04,040 Speaker 1: mean I mean they went out and made him the 853 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 1: highest shutdown or a guy in his prime like more 854 00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 1: of a guy that And I again, I don't know 855 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 1: who the identity Gilmore like when they signed Gilmore because 856 00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:17,279 Speaker 1: I think that one of the things that I would 857 00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:21,400 Speaker 1: worry about with jac Jackson is the persona, the stuff 858 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:25,160 Speaker 1: that we hear in press conferences. His attitude at times, 859 00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 1: I think can sort of wane, and I wonder if 860 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 1: there's a fear of giving him that long term extension 861 00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 1: that he's probably playing his butt off for right now. Yeah, 862 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,359 Speaker 1: what happens if it changes? Yeah, And I'm not trying 863 00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 1: to set up an excuse for them not paying the 864 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 1: money like they have plenty of money. Fred, I'm not 865 00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:45,480 Speaker 1: telling you, so don't throw this back. And my well, 866 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 1: Paul wanted to get rid of him because he didn't 867 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,800 Speaker 1: think they know. I'm just wondering if that's part of 868 00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 1: the equation and if they think that that's worth it 869 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:56,319 Speaker 1: as opposed to just signing somebody else and bringing him 870 00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 1: in for you know, a similar kind of big money 871 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:03,400 Speaker 1: contract act and thinking, well, like Gilmore, he can come 872 00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 1: in and be the number one corner and we don't 873 00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 1: have to and he's gonna be motivated because he's coming 874 00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:09,600 Speaker 1: new to the team. I don't know, because well, if 875 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 1: they get rid of a MOBBI, they win. This is 876 00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 1: well they didn't want to pay him because well we 877 00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:15,120 Speaker 1: know that. But and it certainly seems like when Brady 878 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:16,920 Speaker 1: you know, was here and you felt like you're a 879 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,360 Speaker 1: couple of players away each off season from going like 880 00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 1: it makes sense to franchise Asante for a year or yeah, 881 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:24,839 Speaker 1: we're gonna trade for to leave for this twenty twelve 882 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:28,080 Speaker 1: playoff run or you know, franchise or a not franchise, 883 00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 1: but you know, sign Reeve is just a one year deal, 884 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,400 Speaker 1: Like I think they understand that but who are you now? 885 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:35,200 Speaker 1: Are you you know you're gonna franchise jac Jackson for 886 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:37,359 Speaker 1: one year? Does that mean you think like he's going 887 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:38,840 Speaker 1: to get you to the super Bowl this year? Or 888 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:41,560 Speaker 1: you just kind of tread and water. Would that be 889 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:46,680 Speaker 1: smarter to maybe let somebody younger, play, less proven develop. 890 00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:49,239 Speaker 1: So you're saying that long term, what they do with J. C. 891 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:51,960 Speaker 1: Jackson will tell us a lot about how close they 892 00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:54,239 Speaker 1: feel they are. I mean maybe a little bit, maybe 893 00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 1: a little bit. I mean, I think it'll tell you that. 894 00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:57,960 Speaker 1: It'll also tell you, like I said earlier, how they 895 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,719 Speaker 1: how they feel about defense these days. And I mean 896 00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:03,680 Speaker 1: I always came into it before talib arrived, thinking that 897 00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:07,400 Speaker 1: they want the front seventh, They want the mcguinnis, the Vrabels, 898 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:09,759 Speaker 1: the you know, all those guys up front, and then 899 00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,040 Speaker 1: if you have to stick Randall gay and we'll figure 900 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:13,919 Speaker 1: out a way to do it. Now, obviously you want 901 00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:16,960 Speaker 1: stars everywhere, but I just always thought that they valued 902 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 1: the front and the shut down corners and the defense 903 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:21,920 Speaker 1: fell apart, and I think they had a change of heart, 904 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:23,439 Speaker 1: you know, And that's and I think the safe because 905 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:26,719 Speaker 1: I think you're right, like two thousand and five, ish. 906 00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,360 Speaker 1: I think that they probably felt it was much more important, 907 00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:31,840 Speaker 1: and probably was at the time, but I think the 908 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 1: game is evolved. And then once they lost thy Law 909 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:37,080 Speaker 1: and then later Asante and they chased that corner from 910 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:43,840 Speaker 1: eight to twelve, right, was a twelve for him, and 911 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:45,920 Speaker 1: then they signed them. That was a black hole on 912 00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:49,239 Speaker 1: defense for I mean that eleven defense was wretched. The 913 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:51,279 Speaker 1: fact that Brady dragged that team to the Super Bowl 914 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 1: as a miracle, Um, you know, with how bad they 915 00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 1: were in the secondary. Yeah, just clutch plays by Sterling Moore. 916 00:43:56,680 --> 00:44:00,640 Speaker 1: Of course, let's go to uh sand deep in Virginia. 917 00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:06,360 Speaker 1: Whatever cost me a week in my life. My friends, 918 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:11,000 Speaker 1: guys love your show. Really long time listener, first time caller. UM. 919 00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 1: Unlike other or many Patriots since I actually love watching 920 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 1: the Patriots and hate watching other teams. So while the 921 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 1: Patriots lost and I was sad, I was so happy 922 00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 1: the Colts loss. You just described Patriots nation. They believe me. 923 00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:28,400 Speaker 1: I can, I can, I can show you the mentions. 924 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,160 Speaker 1: There was more excitement over the Colt's loss than disappointment 925 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:35,600 Speaker 1: over the Patriots loss. I can guarantee you that UM 926 00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:41,439 Speaker 1: and Mike um My condolence is Mike, I know you're sad. 927 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 1: I just could not bear listening to your you know, 928 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:48,600 Speaker 1: sadness on the post post game show. Um, they're going 929 00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 1: to be better, don't worry, all right. So I'm I'm 930 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:53,799 Speaker 1: more angry than sad. So I think I've settled into 931 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:57,200 Speaker 1: angry acceptance. I just like it. They're gonna be okay, Okay, 932 00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:00,560 Speaker 1: it's okay, okay. And finally, I think I'll be a 933 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:04,920 Speaker 1: day will draft any fast linebackers at least now, now 934 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:10,920 Speaker 1: that we've seen all this for three years? So who 935 00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 1: are the slow linebackers that you didn't want to see? 936 00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:19,839 Speaker 1: I mean it's it's been like a litany of linebackers 937 00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:23,080 Speaker 1: who've been slow, like High Towers. Okay, so High Tower 938 00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,920 Speaker 1: didn't play on Sunday? How did it look? No, I 939 00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:28,040 Speaker 1: mean I'm not just talking about Sunday. I'm just talking 940 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:30,920 Speaker 1: about you know, twenty nineteen on you know we had 941 00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:34,000 Speaker 1: no but you had the fast linebackers playing on Sunday. 942 00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 1: Huja played on Sunday. Who is fast? That's what he's 943 00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:40,719 Speaker 1: known for. What he's well, he's more of an undersized 944 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:44,000 Speaker 1: defensive end and more more than a linebacker. Right. No, No, 945 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:47,759 Speaker 1: he's an outside linebacker. Yeah, he's he's not a high 946 00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:50,680 Speaker 1: tower guy. He's more of a Van Noy. He'll line 947 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:52,839 Speaker 1: up at the end, you know, he's but he's an 948 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:59,239 Speaker 1: he's not a defensive end now. I mean, I just 949 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:03,040 Speaker 1: my point is, I think the knee jerk of their 950 00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:07,319 Speaker 1: this slow. As a team. They have I think an 951 00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 1: alarming lack of team speed. And this is one of 952 00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 1: the things that I think really hurts the offense is 953 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:14,839 Speaker 1: they don't really have a lot of avenues to create 954 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:18,239 Speaker 1: chunk plays like to get and they got a bunch 955 00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:20,640 Speaker 1: of chunk plays on Sunday. How did they all come about? 956 00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:26,120 Speaker 1: Remarkable throws and catches by Myers in Henry, Like they're 957 00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:29,920 Speaker 1: diving outstretched catches just to get thirty five yards, whereas 958 00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:32,839 Speaker 1: you know, I see these other teams throw like slip 959 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:38,120 Speaker 1: screens to McCole Hardman for fifty yards. Yeah. Yeah, So 960 00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,239 Speaker 1: they have an alarming lack of team speed. I think 961 00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:44,160 Speaker 1: I agree with San Deep about the overall team speed. 962 00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:47,520 Speaker 1: I just I was questioning, like the specific linebacker on Sunday, 963 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,000 Speaker 1: you got the fast linebackers in there and they got 964 00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:52,400 Speaker 1: run all over. Yeah, it would be nice to have 965 00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:56,799 Speaker 1: that one dynamic linebacker. Who who's a difference maker out there? Yeah, 966 00:46:57,640 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 1: a lot of these guys used to be. And Mike 967 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:02,240 Speaker 1: and I, yeah, and I in the draft. We're talking 968 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:04,480 Speaker 1: a lot about these guys, and I'm gonna forget all 969 00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:06,880 Speaker 1: the names now, but the Devin Bushes, the Devin Whites, 970 00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 1: the Patrick Queens, the Kenneth Murray's, they haven't all been 971 00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:13,960 Speaker 1: superstars in the NFL. Some of them have worked out, 972 00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:15,759 Speaker 1: some of them have gotten hurt, some of them have 973 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:19,480 Speaker 1: been just okay. But that's the kind of guy I 974 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:22,360 Speaker 1: wanted to see them get. Like this athletic guy. This 975 00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:24,680 Speaker 1: kid last night for Georgia was all over the place. 976 00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:30,080 Speaker 1: Is Dean Nakobe Dean? I forget which one that's the 977 00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:34,120 Speaker 1: like Roquan Smith as another past Georgia guy. It just 978 00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:37,520 Speaker 1: reminded me of going back to the previous Alabama Georgia 979 00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:41,719 Speaker 1: National championship game. Those guys can play, and you're gonna 980 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:44,800 Speaker 1: get beat in coverage because linebackers against those guys in 981 00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:48,320 Speaker 1: space is a mismatch. So even those great ones aren't 982 00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:51,360 Speaker 1: going to always make the plays. But they're so fast 983 00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:55,000 Speaker 1: they make so many other plays possible. And I just 984 00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:58,120 Speaker 1: I think that that might be the next step. It's coming. Yeah, 985 00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:00,760 Speaker 1: I think Bill is coming around to it, but I'd 986 00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:04,160 Speaker 1: like to see it a little bit more. Uh, Damon 987 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:09,960 Speaker 1: and Maryland. What's up? Damon? Hey guys, how's it going good? Um? 988 00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:13,759 Speaker 1: Quick question pertaining to the secondary. I know in the 989 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:17,000 Speaker 1: first game against Buffalo, Miles Bride was the hero in 990 00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:20,759 Speaker 1: breaking up that porkdown play UM going for Beasley, But 991 00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:23,439 Speaker 1: the second game it seemed like he was the person 992 00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:26,439 Speaker 1: a secondary that Josh Allen just targeted. So any thoughts 993 00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,840 Speaker 1: on how the Patriots can prevent that when Buffalo decides 994 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:32,600 Speaker 1: to go four wide. If I was Buffalo, that's what 995 00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:35,520 Speaker 1: I'd do. I'd spread them out and I'd find the matchup. 996 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:38,040 Speaker 1: And I mean, you know, he got four receivers out there, 997 00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:42,560 Speaker 1: three quarterbacks, so don't forget. Yeah, they're gonna have Beasley 998 00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:48,600 Speaker 1: this time, and that that's a great chance that Isaiah 999 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:50,520 Speaker 1: McKenzie doesn't touch the ball in this right right and 1000 00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:52,320 Speaker 1: he had eleven for one twenty five and then I 1001 00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:55,040 Speaker 1: mean going to have to do something different in how 1002 00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:58,080 Speaker 1: they treat Allan. Yeah, you know that, that to me 1003 00:48:58,120 --> 00:49:00,080 Speaker 1: would be the big change in terms of coverage. I 1004 00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:01,600 Speaker 1: don't know what I don't know what else you do, 1005 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:04,239 Speaker 1: because Mike is right right, you can't double everybody if 1006 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:07,000 Speaker 1: they got four guys out there. And by the way, 1007 00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:09,799 Speaker 1: another cornerback he doesn't play much, but another cornerback went 1008 00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:14,160 Speaker 1: on COVID list, Sean Wade. So hopefully Bryant comes off. Yeah, 1009 00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:16,600 Speaker 1: hopefully Bryant comes off. I mean that's a piece of 1010 00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:21,479 Speaker 1: it too, if you're hoping for Miles Bryant. He played 1011 00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:27,399 Speaker 1: last injuring Christian Barmore, probably his most notable player this season. Right, wow, 1012 00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:31,279 Speaker 1: well you wonder why I put my feet up and 1013 00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:35,680 Speaker 1: just let him go. On Sunday. Fred Deuce was making 1014 00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:38,360 Speaker 1: fun of me on Sunday, Right, Yeah, it was like 1015 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:40,440 Speaker 1: he was It's like he was smoking a cigarette. That 1016 00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:41,759 Speaker 1: was just He's just kind of sitting there. I've never 1017 00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 1: heard Paul say this before coming. He said it multiple 1018 00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:47,239 Speaker 1: times though, So I'm like apoplectic. I'm going off and 1019 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:50,439 Speaker 1: Paul's just sitting there his feet up. It's really hard 1020 00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:53,960 Speaker 1: to argue with Mike. I had my feet up on 1021 00:49:54,080 --> 00:49:56,759 Speaker 1: that chair because I don't know why, Like sometimes, like 1022 00:49:56,800 --> 00:49:59,360 Speaker 1: the foot twenty five games, they just hit different. I 1023 00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:01,680 Speaker 1: don't know why. It feels like it felt like a 1024 00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:04,719 Speaker 1: Nike Absolutely, it felt like a prime time game. And 1025 00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:06,800 Speaker 1: I'm just I was kind of out of gas the 1026 00:50:06,880 --> 00:50:09,000 Speaker 1: second half of the show, and I was checking a 1027 00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:12,160 Speaker 1: couple of things with my kids on Twitter, on on text, 1028 00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:16,959 Speaker 1: and Mike is just like apoplectic, going on rants about 1029 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:21,480 Speaker 1: the defense and ripping everything, and I'm just like, I 1030 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:23,160 Speaker 1: can't really I look at Hardy, I go, I don't 1031 00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:25,640 Speaker 1: really have anything to argue with Mike on that. Remember 1032 00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:27,560 Speaker 1: the remember the X Files. At the end of every 1033 00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:30,080 Speaker 1: X Files episode, the cigarette smoking man would just show up, 1034 00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:33,879 Speaker 1: just like Paul, like a guest on The Tonight Show 1035 00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:36,640 Speaker 1: in the sixties, you know, with a cigarette. Yeah, it's 1036 00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:44,600 Speaker 1: kind of like the postigte that. Yeah, the timely exhale 1037 00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:46,560 Speaker 1: is just like, I mean, it's really hard to argue 1038 00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:51,160 Speaker 1: he's got one of those long, those long uh folders 1039 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:55,759 Speaker 1: with a cigarette at the end. Cigarette that at damon. Um. Yeah, 1040 00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:59,000 Speaker 1: one more thing the Patriots played on my thirtieth birthday, 1041 00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:01,560 Speaker 1: just that bit. I'm hoping there'll be some birthday magic 1042 00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:08,000 Speaker 1: to pull this one out. All right now, it's Chris 1043 00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:11,800 Speaker 1: with a T, I A N. What's up, Christian, Hey, guys. 1044 00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:15,200 Speaker 1: Um obviously just really bummed out about the way though 1045 00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:18,239 Speaker 1: the season ended, despite the fact that their playoff team, 1046 00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:22,759 Speaker 1: And um, what this is really a question for the group, 1047 00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:26,319 Speaker 1: what do you feel good about right now with this team? 1048 00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:29,719 Speaker 1: Like like, can you hang your hat on anything that 1049 00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:33,560 Speaker 1: this team does well that you can say, you know, 1050 00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:36,719 Speaker 1: they do this, they do this well. And I think 1051 00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:43,120 Speaker 1: they run the Yeah they yeah, I mean I would say, 1052 00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:45,640 Speaker 1: and I don't feel as good about this they can. 1053 00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:50,360 Speaker 1: I think you could also say their past defense is 1054 00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:53,600 Speaker 1: pretty good. I think it's a little deceptive, but it's 1055 00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:57,279 Speaker 1: it's not bad. Yeah, not bad. I'm I feel good 1056 00:51:57,280 --> 00:52:01,279 Speaker 1: about Born, I feel good about Henry. I feel I 1057 00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:04,520 Speaker 1: feel good in that we've got a quarterback who I 1058 00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:07,719 Speaker 1: think we can work with and can get better. Um, 1059 00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:11,160 Speaker 1: you know I I you know, I like Stevenson and 1060 00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:13,719 Speaker 1: Harris as as you know a duo. But I think 1061 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:16,080 Speaker 1: Christian's question is more like what do they really what 1062 00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:18,799 Speaker 1: can what can you bank on every week that if 1063 00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:21,279 Speaker 1: they need to do it, they can do this. I mean, 1064 00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:23,120 Speaker 1: and I think the running game is as close as 1065 00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:25,120 Speaker 1: you can get, Like you can count on them to 1066 00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:27,839 Speaker 1: run the ball. I think they run the ball whether 1067 00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:29,960 Speaker 1: the other team is trying to stop you or not. 1068 00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:33,520 Speaker 1: I think they're pretty good at running the ball, pass protection. Okay, 1069 00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:37,000 Speaker 1: I would say it's better, but I would say it's okay, 1070 00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:40,600 Speaker 1: bank on it. Yeah, there's too many, especially early in games. 1071 00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:44,879 Speaker 1: It seems like there's some congestion around many. Yeah. Yeah, 1072 00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:46,800 Speaker 1: and I mean Eric sort of hit it, you know. 1073 00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:52,160 Speaker 1: I Sunday's game was just like a stark sort of uh, 1074 00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:55,200 Speaker 1: you know, hit you in the face, Mike. I think 1075 00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:56,960 Speaker 1: you said it on the on the post game show, 1076 00:52:57,080 --> 00:53:00,680 Speaker 1: like week one week seventh team here we are. I 1077 00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:03,360 Speaker 1: felt like they had made no progress. Defense had an 1078 00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:06,240 Speaker 1: opportunity to get the team off the field. They didn't. 1079 00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:09,080 Speaker 1: And you know, for me, like I look at you know, 1080 00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:10,840 Speaker 1: I think Mike you had said And again this was 1081 00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:12,759 Speaker 1: sort of from the in the emotion I think of 1082 00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:14,480 Speaker 1: the game. You know what it's like, what are you 1083 00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:20,680 Speaker 1: been doing for four months? Um? You know, a great 1084 00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:25,360 Speaker 1: question by Mike right there, I'm telling you, Mike, Mike was. 1085 00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:31,359 Speaker 1: Mike was on another level on Sunday. Yeah, suddenly Paul 1086 00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:34,400 Speaker 1: was the second most negative guy in the show. Wow, 1087 00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:39,359 Speaker 1: he's no more sneaky negative deuce. He's just negative deuce. Yeah, 1088 00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:41,239 Speaker 1: it was. It was tough. So you know, for me, 1089 00:53:41,360 --> 00:53:44,680 Speaker 1: I think, listen, obviously, you know you're playing Buffalo, and 1090 00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:47,640 Speaker 1: you know who you got this game, the third game 1091 00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:50,520 Speaker 1: against him, and you know, I, like everybody else, I 1092 00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:54,360 Speaker 1: kind of preferred Cincinnati because of the inexperience of the 1093 00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:58,400 Speaker 1: coaching um, and you know, I just I think Buffalo 1094 00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:00,560 Speaker 1: has sort of passed the point where they're going to 1095 00:54:00,640 --> 00:54:05,680 Speaker 1: screw it up. So let's see. I don't rule it out. No, 1096 00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:07,919 Speaker 1: I know what you're saying, Christian. I think they feel 1097 00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:09,480 Speaker 1: it just like they felt it a couple of weeks 1098 00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:11,239 Speaker 1: ago when they came here, like they knew, they were 1099 00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:14,640 Speaker 1: confident in who they are and what their game plan is. 1100 00:54:14,920 --> 00:54:17,360 Speaker 1: They're confident that they can come here and win. And 1101 00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:19,200 Speaker 1: I think now that they're at home, I think they 1102 00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:21,239 Speaker 1: feel like they blew that game at home. No pun 1103 00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:23,520 Speaker 1: intended with the win, but I feel like they threw 1104 00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:26,560 Speaker 1: that game away and feel like they should be they 1105 00:54:26,560 --> 00:54:28,840 Speaker 1: should have swept the series. I think that thea of 1106 00:54:28,960 --> 00:54:31,800 Speaker 1: that game was in reality, exactly the opposite of the 1107 00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:34,000 Speaker 1: way we all kind of felt it. Right. Yeah, I 1108 00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:36,680 Speaker 1: think they look at it and say that's the best 1109 00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:39,640 Speaker 1: they can play, right, and we just beat ourselves right, 1110 00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:41,759 Speaker 1: and they're at home, and I think that crowd's going 1111 00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 1: to be a factor. It's gonna be like it's a 1112 00:54:43,760 --> 00:54:45,400 Speaker 1: night game, so it's gonna be like three degrees. I 1113 00:54:45,480 --> 00:54:48,880 Speaker 1: just looked at the forecast from cold and what are 1114 00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:50,919 Speaker 1: you doing it? Damn is you're taking the day off today, 1115 00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:55,799 Speaker 1: you slacker? Too cold for you? Oh you're working from home? 1116 00:54:56,320 --> 00:54:59,000 Speaker 1: Checking those water tables from home? Are they all frozen today? 1117 00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:05,400 Speaker 1: W baby? Nothing like it? Ain't there? All right? Guys? 1118 00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:10,040 Speaker 1: All right, I'm speaking I um, Adam writes in and 1119 00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:12,960 Speaker 1: he thinks that mush wait, I can't do it now 1120 00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:16,799 Speaker 1: because master, I'll wait, I'll wait, I wait on that point. Okay, 1121 00:55:17,160 --> 00:55:21,360 Speaker 1: um the phone banks, Let's go to Eldred in North Carolina. 1122 00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:26,480 Speaker 1: What's up, Eldred? Hey, So, how y'all doing? Sorry? Three 1123 00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:30,560 Speaker 1: people just ran off the road. Sorry? Sorry, that the best? No. No, 1124 00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:32,719 Speaker 1: They looked at me like why am I'm blowing at him? 1125 00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:36,719 Speaker 1: But I wait and they keep moving. I'm listening to 1126 00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:44,520 Speaker 1: a podcast on the phone. But I'm I'm just curious, 1127 00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:46,960 Speaker 1: you know. Like I said, it's always hard to be 1128 00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:51,919 Speaker 1: the team. Three times and and uh the defense deuce, 1129 00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:54,279 Speaker 1: I feel your pain. I thought that's the best thing 1130 00:55:54,320 --> 00:55:56,320 Speaker 1: we can hang our hat on was this year whoop 1131 00:55:56,320 --> 00:56:00,560 Speaker 1: be the deepen until the offense come around. But how 1132 00:56:00,719 --> 00:56:03,600 Speaker 1: your question earlier one of the call of call in 1133 00:56:04,840 --> 00:56:09,040 Speaker 1: how many games experience that Perkins ain't had none yet? Right, 1134 00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:12,759 Speaker 1: Perkins has not played in the game. No, okay, So 1135 00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:16,319 Speaker 1: if they had to start, let's let's say they didn't 1136 00:56:16,800 --> 00:56:22,000 Speaker 1: bring hot toower Back or or van Noy or or 1137 00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:24,360 Speaker 1: the other one coin, and they started with them and 1138 00:56:24,360 --> 00:56:26,279 Speaker 1: they ask him a gaming spirit, do you think they 1139 00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:27,960 Speaker 1: might be a little bit better or it might be 1140 00:56:28,040 --> 00:56:29,920 Speaker 1: to say what you see, I kind of agree with you. 1141 00:56:30,080 --> 00:56:32,520 Speaker 1: This is you know, I don't want to reopen a 1142 00:56:32,560 --> 00:56:34,920 Speaker 1: wound from a fight with Fred from very early in 1143 00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:37,680 Speaker 1: the year. I think that had you played some of 1144 00:56:37,800 --> 00:56:40,239 Speaker 1: these guys earlier in the year, they might be better 1145 00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:43,919 Speaker 1: suited today to help you. Um, now that that ship 1146 00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:46,239 Speaker 1: is sailed, like, you can't ask Ronnie Perkins to play now, 1147 00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:49,800 Speaker 1: right right? You know, save us? You know cha. I 1148 00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:52,400 Speaker 1: think will be a part of the you know, the 1149 00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:55,080 Speaker 1: game plan on Saturday. I think that he might be 1150 00:56:55,160 --> 00:56:58,239 Speaker 1: involved in chasing Josh Allen around a little bit. Sure, 1151 00:56:58,400 --> 00:57:01,279 Speaker 1: I think he could help. Yeah, I mean, I think 1152 00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:03,319 Speaker 1: the question is next year, are those are those guys 1153 00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:05,279 Speaker 1: win of Itch Perkins him?

It sold 1296 01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:25,760 Speaker 1: the outside quarter. Since Jos takes him right into the quarter, 1297 01:05:26,240 --> 01:05:29,000 Speaker 1: they suck up. Get it.

All right back 1359 01:09:23,280 --> 01:09:26,280 Speaker 1: here on Patriots Unfiltered on a Tuesday, getting ready for 1360 01:09:26,360 --> 01:09:30,760 Speaker 1: the Bills Saturday night. So quick turnaround as they say, um, 1361 01:09:31,880 --> 01:09:36,320 Speaker 1: what what are we looking at for? One guy, I 1362 01:09:36,400 --> 01:09:39,160 Speaker 1: feel like one of Paul's stations owe me some money. 1363 01:09:39,240 --> 01:09:42,080 Speaker 1: I guess. Uh. This guy Adam writes in and he 1364 01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:44,920 Speaker 1: says he was listening to ninety eight point five and 1365 01:09:45,080 --> 01:09:48,280 Speaker 1: it was in a nutshell podcast that they do, I guess, 1366 01:09:48,320 --> 01:09:51,559 Speaker 1: and they're using my voice. This is me in a nutshell. Yeah. 1367 01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:57,280 Speaker 1: Now if it may not be, but uh, someone saying okay, uh, 1368 01:09:57,800 --> 01:10:00,200 Speaker 1: maybe I don't know. Can you play it sometime? You 1369 01:10:00,320 --> 01:10:04,800 Speaker 1: don't have four hours and that's okay. Now, is that me? 1370 01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:08,599 Speaker 1: It sounds a little bit like you. Yeah, I thought 1371 01:10:08,640 --> 01:10:11,320 Speaker 1: yours was all right? All right, yeah, that's what I do. 1372 01:10:11,479 --> 01:10:16,240 Speaker 1: But sometimes you do say okay. So if it's socially 1373 01:10:16,360 --> 01:10:21,120 Speaker 1: in a party, condescendingment, it's okay, Paul, it's okay. Yeah, yeah, 1374 01:10:21,320 --> 01:10:23,880 Speaker 1: it's okay. When he's lost an argument, Paul, he wants 1375 01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:26,680 Speaker 1: me to stop, it's okay. If it is me, I 1376 01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:28,720 Speaker 1: demand royalty right now. I mean, you do have a 1377 01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:30,760 Speaker 1: great okay. If they were looking for an okay, I 1378 01:10:30,800 --> 01:10:32,479 Speaker 1: can see why they would have been like, hey, let's 1379 01:10:32,520 --> 01:10:37,880 Speaker 1: get that curses okay, Matt put the all right, and 1380 01:10:38,360 --> 01:10:42,960 Speaker 1: especially especially you know, in a podcast, because if you 1381 01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:46,120 Speaker 1: have a podcast in Boston, you're listening to ours right 1382 01:10:46,479 --> 01:10:48,720 Speaker 1: on how to do it. So I could see where 1383 01:10:48,760 --> 01:10:51,240 Speaker 1: they would be stealing their fair point there. Yes, I 1384 01:10:51,320 --> 01:10:53,760 Speaker 1: mean you make a a lot of great points. Yeah. No, 1385 01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:58,680 Speaker 1: it's not me. It's not me, all right, driving it 1386 01:10:58,760 --> 01:11:01,439 Speaker 1: into the ground. I'm going to I can't help it. 1387 01:11:01,479 --> 01:11:03,479 Speaker 1: You know what this is. He's trying to deflect attention 1388 01:11:03,520 --> 01:11:07,840 Speaker 1: from the fact that he official. So let's get to 1389 01:11:08,320 --> 01:11:10,839 Speaker 1: some of the emails coming into web radio at Patriots 1390 01:11:10,880 --> 01:11:14,439 Speaker 1: dot Com. We'll start with Ben in Boston, first time, 1391 01:11:14,520 --> 01:11:17,520 Speaker 1: long time question about coaching, with the kind of surprising 1392 01:11:17,600 --> 01:11:20,200 Speaker 1: fire of b flow. Would you want to see him back? 1393 01:11:20,800 --> 01:11:23,360 Speaker 1: Do you think it's realistic he'd return as a non 1394 01:11:23,479 --> 01:11:26,840 Speaker 1: head coach like Josh McDaniels or Mattie Pe. Personally, he 1395 01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:28,840 Speaker 1: seems like a competent head coach and I'd love to 1396 01:11:28,880 --> 01:11:33,280 Speaker 1: see him back as defensive coordinator. In the air apparent conversation, 1397 01:11:33,720 --> 01:11:35,400 Speaker 1: I tell you what, I wouldn't rule up that he 1398 01:11:35,479 --> 01:11:40,040 Speaker 1: gets one of these vacant head coaching jobs. He's already's 1399 01:11:40,080 --> 01:11:44,360 Speaker 1: list Hold on, hold please, I have some some odds 1400 01:11:44,520 --> 01:11:48,960 Speaker 1: and stuff. But um, I think there's very little chance 1401 01:11:49,040 --> 01:11:52,120 Speaker 1: of him coming back here for a lot of reasons. 1402 01:11:52,439 --> 01:11:56,680 Speaker 1: But don't dismiss the fact that Steve Belichick is the 1403 01:11:56,840 --> 01:12:01,280 Speaker 1: de facto defensive coordinator. Right, you're gonna bring They already 1404 01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:03,640 Speaker 1: brought Patricia back, and I wondered how that would work. Well, 1405 01:12:03,680 --> 01:12:06,720 Speaker 1: we found out he's not a coach. That's how it works, right, 1406 01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:08,680 Speaker 1: That's how you know. So you're gonna bring another guy 1407 01:12:08,720 --> 01:12:10,840 Speaker 1: back and not be the coach. He's gonna be the 1408 01:12:10,880 --> 01:12:13,280 Speaker 1: assistant head coach, but not like, how's that going to work? 1409 01:12:13,360 --> 01:12:15,519 Speaker 1: One thing I was thinking about, not just for Flores, 1410 01:12:15,600 --> 01:12:18,960 Speaker 1: but for any coach that gets fired, is it is 1411 01:12:18,960 --> 01:12:21,400 Speaker 1: it better to like jump right back in with another 1412 01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:23,479 Speaker 1: team or is it better to take a little time 1413 01:12:23,560 --> 01:12:26,800 Speaker 1: and kind of, you know, refuel a little bit, kind 1414 01:12:26,840 --> 01:12:30,400 Speaker 1: of learned from what happened. And then like Josh, I think, 1415 01:12:31,280 --> 01:12:34,640 Speaker 1: what did Josh do? He came right back? I mean no, 1416 01:12:34,760 --> 01:12:38,720 Speaker 1: but joshin right, coach, he kind of he hasn't. He 1417 01:12:38,840 --> 01:12:41,200 Speaker 1: has not gotten a job. He hasn't. But no, That's 1418 01:12:41,240 --> 01:12:43,200 Speaker 1: why I'm saying I'm not taking a shot at Josh. 1419 01:12:43,240 --> 01:12:46,600 Speaker 1: I'm saying I am when he when he lost the 1420 01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:48,680 Speaker 1: Denver job, right, I think he was out for the 1421 01:12:48,720 --> 01:12:50,599 Speaker 1: rest of that year. But then he joined the Rams 1422 01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:54,160 Speaker 1: as their offensive coordinator first season. The next year, Yeah, 1423 01:12:54,200 --> 01:12:56,000 Speaker 1: the next year, Right, So he took a little bit 1424 01:12:56,040 --> 01:12:57,840 Speaker 1: of time, to your point. And then he said he 1425 01:12:57,960 --> 01:12:59,800 Speaker 1: had that big article in the ESPN where he was 1426 01:12:59,800 --> 01:13:02,240 Speaker 1: talking about how he stayed at the facility and Saint 1427 01:13:02,520 --> 01:13:05,400 Speaker 1: Saint Louis back then and was thinking about like what 1428 01:13:05,520 --> 01:13:07,280 Speaker 1: he did wrong as a head coach and like put 1429 01:13:07,320 --> 01:13:09,120 Speaker 1: this whole list together of things he was Yeah, so 1430 01:13:09,200 --> 01:13:11,719 Speaker 1: I Bill builded the same thing, but he's after Cleveland. 1431 01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:14,320 Speaker 1: Did he taken twelve Well, he didn't say the same thing, 1432 01:13:14,520 --> 01:13:17,000 Speaker 1: you know, and but he I don't know if he 1433 01:13:17,080 --> 01:13:18,840 Speaker 1: wanted to, but he had to take time off of 1434 01:13:18,960 --> 01:13:21,720 Speaker 1: being a head coach in between Cleveland and here. Now, 1435 01:13:21,920 --> 01:13:23,840 Speaker 1: I think he would have jumped right back in if 1436 01:13:24,080 --> 01:13:26,559 Speaker 1: Robert Craft had hired him right after Parcels, or if 1437 01:13:26,600 --> 01:13:29,160 Speaker 1: somebody else had offered him. This is my point about Josh. Yeah, 1438 01:13:29,320 --> 01:13:32,559 Speaker 1: but I'm just wondering if it's you know, the urges. 1439 01:13:32,640 --> 01:13:34,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get right back and show everybody I'm a 1440 01:13:34,800 --> 01:13:37,360 Speaker 1: good head coach. But hold on, I'm indie did offer 1441 01:13:37,479 --> 01:13:39,799 Speaker 1: Josh and he took the job? No, no, no, that's 1442 01:13:39,840 --> 01:13:42,640 Speaker 1: the that's the only job. Like It's not because he 1443 01:13:42,800 --> 01:13:45,679 Speaker 1: decided he didn't take not take that because he wanted 1444 01:13:45,680 --> 01:13:48,240 Speaker 1: to step away, right He got offered one job in 1445 01:13:48,280 --> 01:13:50,920 Speaker 1: the last twelve years. But my question is, I know 1446 01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:53,920 Speaker 1: what you're saying, whether or not you get offered, is 1447 01:13:53,960 --> 01:13:56,360 Speaker 1: it a good idea to take at least a year 1448 01:13:56,479 --> 01:13:58,639 Speaker 1: to just kind of reflect. I think it would defend 1449 01:13:58,720 --> 01:14:01,960 Speaker 1: on the individual and his I mean dependend depend on 1450 01:14:02,040 --> 01:14:05,240 Speaker 1: the individual. Um and because and this is where I 1451 01:14:05,320 --> 01:14:09,519 Speaker 1: don't know, Um, all the parameters of what Flores is 1452 01:14:09,560 --> 01:14:12,919 Speaker 1: going through right now. For all I know, this completely 1453 01:14:12,960 --> 01:14:14,640 Speaker 1: took him. Hit him out of left field. He had 1454 01:14:14,680 --> 01:14:18,840 Speaker 1: no idea, completely floored. If that's the case, I think 1455 01:14:18,880 --> 01:14:20,720 Speaker 1: he might you you would be right to say it 1456 01:14:20,800 --> 01:14:23,200 Speaker 1: might be best served to just sit it out, wait 1457 01:14:23,360 --> 01:14:26,240 Speaker 1: and figure it out in two years. Right. Um, if 1458 01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:28,360 Speaker 1: he kind of had an idea there was some rumblings 1459 01:14:28,439 --> 01:14:30,519 Speaker 1: going on, then he's probably already had in his mind 1460 01:14:30,800 --> 01:14:33,040 Speaker 1: this could happen, and I would jump right in. Yeah, 1461 01:14:33,280 --> 01:14:35,800 Speaker 1: and he is on the Bear's list. I got this 1462 01:14:35,960 --> 01:14:42,560 Speaker 1: thing from sports Betting sports book with future props that 1463 01:14:42,680 --> 01:14:44,840 Speaker 1: we get. We get a lot of these. Um do 1464 01:14:44,920 --> 01:14:46,920 Speaker 1: you guys get these same emails? I assume I don't 1465 01:14:46,960 --> 01:14:49,120 Speaker 1: get any of those. Okay, I'm not on those lists, 1466 01:14:49,640 --> 01:14:50,720 Speaker 1: you know, so you have to go like this to 1467 01:14:50,800 --> 01:14:52,600 Speaker 1: get on this list, Right, I'm touching the side of 1468 01:14:52,640 --> 01:14:57,160 Speaker 1: my nose. The odds for the next Bears head coach 1469 01:14:57,720 --> 01:15:01,120 Speaker 1: bear down Chicago Bears Doug Peterson plus five hundred, Jim 1470 01:15:01,240 --> 01:15:06,439 Speaker 1: Harbaugh uh Is plus five fifty, Brian Dable six hundred, 1471 01:15:06,560 --> 01:15:09,960 Speaker 1: Eric b Enemy seven hundred, Leslie Fraser seven hundred, then 1472 01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:13,840 Speaker 1: Brian Flores at a thousand, um, so they certainly have 1473 01:15:14,120 --> 01:15:16,720 Speaker 1: him in the mix for that Bears job. And I 1474 01:15:16,800 --> 01:15:20,760 Speaker 1: did see today that he officially is interviewing with them, right, 1475 01:15:21,280 --> 01:15:23,960 Speaker 1: I don't see him on all of these other lists 1476 01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:26,479 Speaker 1: and night oh I'm sorry, Vikings coach. He is the 1477 01:15:26,560 --> 01:15:30,400 Speaker 1: fourth on the list, behind b Enemy Dabele, Andre Patterson. 1478 01:15:30,439 --> 01:15:34,479 Speaker 1: I'm not familiar with Andre, and then Flores. Um so 1479 01:15:34,760 --> 01:15:37,560 Speaker 1: he is on some of these lists, which I you know. 1480 01:15:37,760 --> 01:15:42,000 Speaker 1: And Josh McDaniels, by the way, um, as far as 1481 01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:46,639 Speaker 1: I can tell them, is on the Jaguars list way 1482 01:15:46,720 --> 01:15:50,559 Speaker 1: down at plus two thousand. But that's just a tout list. 1483 01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:52,560 Speaker 1: That's not like he's on the list to be in 1484 01:15:52,880 --> 01:15:56,920 Speaker 1: nor because he's not on the list. And he's also 1485 01:15:57,120 --> 01:16:00,000 Speaker 1: plus sixteen hundred for the Vikings job, which is last 1486 01:16:00,600 --> 01:16:03,599 Speaker 1: among the you know, fifteen or so coaches they list. Yeah, 1487 01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:08,760 Speaker 1: these are betting odds. Did like that? How much does 1488 01:16:08,840 --> 01:16:11,880 Speaker 1: it depend too on what team it is? I don't specifically, 1489 01:16:11,920 --> 01:16:14,679 Speaker 1: I don't believe anybody is requested to interview Josh McDaniels. 1490 01:16:14,720 --> 01:16:18,519 Speaker 1: That I certainly not. That's been reported, not yet, But 1491 01:16:18,600 --> 01:16:23,840 Speaker 1: they did report Mayo. Yeah, yep, uh so Justin and 1492 01:16:23,960 --> 01:16:28,600 Speaker 1: Rhode Island um longtime listeners. Second time emailing email I 1493 01:16:28,760 --> 01:16:31,680 Speaker 1: emailed during the draft complaining about Mac. I'm still not 1494 01:16:31,800 --> 01:16:34,519 Speaker 1: sure if he's the guy. But my question is, why 1495 01:16:34,560 --> 01:16:37,599 Speaker 1: does every bum player have good games against the Patriots 1496 01:16:37,800 --> 01:16:40,200 Speaker 1: And it's been happening for years, or at least it 1497 01:16:40,280 --> 01:16:43,200 Speaker 1: seems like it. But our best can barely do anything. 1498 01:16:43,280 --> 01:16:46,080 Speaker 1: I watch other teams with absolute bums for quarterbacks and 1499 01:16:46,160 --> 01:16:49,840 Speaker 1: wide receivers look way more athletic and explosive compared to 1500 01:16:49,920 --> 01:16:53,080 Speaker 1: our offense. Makes me question the play calling, which I 1501 01:16:53,200 --> 01:16:56,080 Speaker 1: have been for years, even when Brady was here. Third 1502 01:16:56,160 --> 01:16:58,760 Speaker 1: and twelve, here comes a runner screen. Seems like they 1503 01:16:58,880 --> 01:17:01,320 Speaker 1: lay down and expect not picked up the first down, 1504 01:17:01,560 --> 01:17:03,560 Speaker 1: And I get it. The other teams can make some 1505 01:17:03,680 --> 01:17:08,800 Speaker 1: plays but then crap themselves in the same drive. I 1506 01:17:08,840 --> 01:17:11,400 Speaker 1: don't know. It seems like a lot of complaining. Yeah, 1507 01:17:11,880 --> 01:17:15,720 Speaker 1: like the bums from other teams, right, Like, how did 1508 01:17:15,880 --> 01:17:18,479 Speaker 1: like Wattle he's a bum? Well, I mean, I assume 1509 01:17:18,520 --> 01:17:23,240 Speaker 1: he's talking about Duke Johnson, but like against Jacksonville, how 1510 01:17:23,280 --> 01:17:26,960 Speaker 1: do a Google Walley guy do? Did you see him 1511 01:17:27,000 --> 01:17:30,040 Speaker 1: make any huge place? Although he might have had to. 1512 01:17:30,200 --> 01:17:33,680 Speaker 1: Did he catch did he catch the screen pass? Is 1513 01:17:33,720 --> 01:17:35,680 Speaker 1: that the other guy Armstead there that that we were 1514 01:17:35,720 --> 01:17:39,800 Speaker 1: asked about how many catches instantly. There's a lot of 1515 01:17:39,840 --> 01:17:42,040 Speaker 1: games that the stiffs don't do anything that you don't 1516 01:17:42,080 --> 01:17:46,240 Speaker 1: really realize and then an isa and it's notable, you know, 1517 01:17:46,360 --> 01:17:48,080 Speaker 1: and it does happen from time to time, and I 1518 01:17:48,160 --> 01:17:53,080 Speaker 1: think when it happens, the reason is, I think the Patriots, um, 1519 01:17:53,280 --> 01:17:56,640 Speaker 1: they're so concerned from a game plan perspective of not 1520 01:17:56,720 --> 01:17:59,320 Speaker 1: allowing the other teams stars to beat them. That's generally 1521 01:17:59,360 --> 01:18:02,800 Speaker 1: how they go about it. Um, and they make someone 1522 01:18:02,880 --> 01:18:04,720 Speaker 1: else do the dirty work, you know, they you know 1523 01:18:04,720 --> 01:18:08,000 Speaker 1: the guy they always say that the term they try 1524 01:18:08,040 --> 01:18:10,960 Speaker 1: to make the opponent play left handed, and it's served 1525 01:18:11,000 --> 01:18:15,000 Speaker 1: them really well over the years. The flip side of 1526 01:18:15,080 --> 01:18:16,760 Speaker 1: that is every once in a while, the other team 1527 01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:21,960 Speaker 1: does it. So, Yeah, Buffalo was able to do with 1528 01:18:22,080 --> 01:18:24,599 Speaker 1: Isaiah McKenzie. Yeah, and that's why I like this week. 1529 01:18:24,680 --> 01:18:27,479 Speaker 1: You think if it goes even according to somewhat the 1530 01:18:27,479 --> 01:18:30,320 Speaker 1: plan and jac Jackson's able to contain digs, it's you know, 1531 01:18:30,560 --> 01:18:36,600 Speaker 1: Davis and Cole Beasley worry about worry about Yeah, It's like, 1532 01:18:36,640 --> 01:18:38,800 Speaker 1: you know, you're playing Houston and you know they're gonna 1533 01:18:38,840 --> 01:18:42,120 Speaker 1: make Davis Mills do it, and he kind of almost did. Yeah, 1534 01:18:42,320 --> 01:18:44,880 Speaker 1: you know, But but I would say in that in 1535 01:18:44,960 --> 01:18:48,280 Speaker 1: that game, right, Brandon Cooks is probably the guy that 1536 01:18:48,280 --> 01:18:49,519 Speaker 1: they went into that game and say, we're not going 1537 01:18:49,560 --> 01:18:51,479 Speaker 1: to let him ruin the game for us. He didn't, right, 1538 01:18:51,640 --> 01:18:55,960 Speaker 1: but everybody else did, right, Bill and DC. Maybe I'm naive, 1539 01:18:56,160 --> 01:18:59,559 Speaker 1: but I just don't understand the constant criticism directed towards 1540 01:18:59,640 --> 01:19:03,080 Speaker 1: Mac from certain elements of the media in fan base 1541 01:19:03,200 --> 01:19:05,559 Speaker 1: every time the Patriots lose. Certainly not from the media. 1542 01:19:05,720 --> 01:19:08,000 Speaker 1: The kid has certainly had his ups and downs recently, 1543 01:19:08,080 --> 01:19:10,200 Speaker 1: and some of the blame definitely lies at his feet. 1544 01:19:10,240 --> 01:19:12,600 Speaker 1: But I don't think people understand just how tough it 1545 01:19:12,760 --> 01:19:15,080 Speaker 1: is for a rookie to get his team into the playoffs. 1546 01:19:15,360 --> 01:19:18,960 Speaker 1: Since twenty thirteen, among rookie quarterbacks would played ten or 1547 01:19:19,040 --> 01:19:22,760 Speaker 1: more games and didn't come in as injury replacements, only 1548 01:19:22,920 --> 01:19:25,400 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott got his team into the playoffs in his 1549 01:19:25,520 --> 01:19:28,479 Speaker 1: first season. The bottom line is that what Mac has 1550 01:19:28,479 --> 01:19:31,960 Speaker 1: accomplished the many years, say since thirteen, oh, so we're 1551 01:19:31,960 --> 01:19:34,240 Speaker 1: just going to eliminate the years that had happened. The 1552 01:19:34,320 --> 01:19:37,040 Speaker 1: bottom line is that Mac has accomplished this season is 1553 01:19:37,080 --> 01:19:39,320 Speaker 1: pretty rare. I don't think the Patriots will go far 1554 01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:42,120 Speaker 1: in the playoffs, but that shouldn't diminish what Jones has 1555 01:19:42,120 --> 01:19:44,599 Speaker 1: accomplished as a rookie. You know what's even more rare 1556 01:19:44,960 --> 01:19:49,760 Speaker 1: than what the Patriots have done what criticism of Mac? Yes, yes, 1557 01:19:50,680 --> 01:19:54,559 Speaker 1: but the amount of teams that took rookie that started 1558 01:19:54,640 --> 01:19:57,040 Speaker 1: rookie quarterbacks from the start of the season that would 1559 01:19:57,360 --> 01:20:00,720 Speaker 1: fit this parameter, that were in the Patriots position as 1560 01:20:00,800 --> 01:20:03,280 Speaker 1: opposed to like Trevor Lawrence, Like did Trevor Lawrence have 1561 01:20:03,400 --> 01:20:07,439 Speaker 1: any shot whatsoever? Like there's a reason that Russell Wilson 1562 01:20:07,560 --> 01:20:10,760 Speaker 1: was able to take his team to the playoffs. He 1563 01:20:11,840 --> 01:20:15,519 Speaker 1: took over eighteen that was already good. Like there's a 1564 01:20:15,560 --> 01:20:18,920 Speaker 1: reason Dak Prescott was able to have success. Yeah, Dallas 1565 01:20:19,080 --> 01:20:22,519 Speaker 1: was already very talented. In terms of the criticism of Mac, though, 1566 01:20:22,760 --> 01:20:25,519 Speaker 1: I think pretty people have been pretty fair with Mac. 1567 01:20:25,600 --> 01:20:28,519 Speaker 1: I think people have realized he is a rookie, and 1568 01:20:28,520 --> 01:20:31,479 Speaker 1: at least around here, I don't see a lot of 1569 01:20:31,520 --> 01:20:34,720 Speaker 1: people being over now people do evaluate his game saying, 1570 01:20:34,760 --> 01:20:36,519 Speaker 1: you know, that wasn't a great game for Mac and 1571 01:20:36,560 --> 01:20:38,960 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. But I always hear it couched with 1572 01:20:39,360 --> 01:20:41,720 Speaker 1: you know, he's a rookie. Yeah, I don't think that's why. 1573 01:20:41,760 --> 01:20:43,960 Speaker 1: I don't think there's been much criticism of at all. Yeah, 1574 01:20:44,160 --> 01:20:46,400 Speaker 1: I think people have been fair about his play. I 1575 01:20:46,439 --> 01:20:50,880 Speaker 1: don't think. I mean, early on, especially national, the talk 1576 01:20:50,920 --> 01:20:53,439 Speaker 1: about he's gonna the next Brady and he's this and 1577 01:20:53,840 --> 01:20:58,200 Speaker 1: ceiling you know, Canton and that was ridiculous Canton. But 1578 01:20:58,320 --> 01:21:01,800 Speaker 1: I think I think around here people have pretty even handed. Yeah, 1579 01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:04,000 Speaker 1: I think so. I mean, but you know, to be fair, 1580 01:21:04,080 --> 01:21:07,280 Speaker 1: I think he's played seventeen games, and you know, at 1581 01:21:07,360 --> 01:21:09,680 Speaker 1: some point, yeah, he's still a rookie, but he's got 1582 01:21:09,720 --> 01:21:11,920 Speaker 1: some NFL experience now, and I don't think it's too 1583 01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:15,040 Speaker 1: crazy to, you know, expect some progression. And the way 1584 01:21:15,120 --> 01:21:16,960 Speaker 1: that the games have gone the last few weeks, I think, 1585 01:21:16,960 --> 01:21:19,120 Speaker 1: as we said, he's very much part of the team. 1586 01:21:19,160 --> 01:21:22,080 Speaker 1: I don't think he is in and of himself able 1587 01:21:22,160 --> 01:21:24,639 Speaker 1: to change the dynamic of how a game is unfolding. 1588 01:21:24,680 --> 01:21:26,840 Speaker 1: If it's going well, he can keep it going well. 1589 01:21:26,920 --> 01:21:29,280 Speaker 1: If it's going bad, I don't think he can necessarily 1590 01:21:29,320 --> 01:21:31,679 Speaker 1: at this point in his career, change it and start 1591 01:21:31,760 --> 01:21:34,200 Speaker 1: making plays that wow, it's just he's got to make 1592 01:21:34,200 --> 01:21:36,640 Speaker 1: a few throws. And I mean, I hate the comparisons 1593 01:21:36,680 --> 01:21:39,000 Speaker 1: to bring up, but you know, watching Justin Herbert in 1594 01:21:39,080 --> 01:21:42,160 Speaker 1: overtime the other night and completing fourth and ten after 1595 01:21:42,280 --> 01:21:44,880 Speaker 1: fourth and ten, and you know, those are the kind 1596 01:21:44,880 --> 01:21:46,680 Speaker 1: of throws that down the road you want to see 1597 01:21:46,760 --> 01:21:49,120 Speaker 1: Mac be able to throw up when he's up against 1598 01:21:49,160 --> 01:21:50,880 Speaker 1: it and the team really needs him to make a play. 1599 01:21:51,640 --> 01:21:54,200 Speaker 1: He'll have an opportunity here. I'd love to see just 1600 01:21:54,320 --> 01:21:56,519 Speaker 1: a solid game out of him, something to finish that 1601 01:21:56,680 --> 01:21:59,360 Speaker 1: that's strong. But I do think that going into next 1602 01:21:59,400 --> 01:22:01,400 Speaker 1: summer that you know, I have to say if there's 1603 01:22:01,479 --> 01:22:03,720 Speaker 1: questions about whether he's the starter or not, but I 1604 01:22:03,840 --> 01:22:05,439 Speaker 1: think he needs to improve. He needs to, you know, 1605 01:22:05,560 --> 01:22:09,040 Speaker 1: show some some significant strides in some area. Love his brain, 1606 01:22:09,200 --> 01:22:11,720 Speaker 1: love his anticipation when he's on. But I think there's 1607 01:22:11,760 --> 01:22:14,040 Speaker 1: definitely areas that he needs to improve if this team 1608 01:22:14,080 --> 01:22:17,360 Speaker 1: is going to take the next step. Absolutely, let's go 1609 01:22:17,520 --> 01:22:20,519 Speaker 1: to the aceticket Hut Lion Shawn's in Vancouver. What's up, 1610 01:22:20,560 --> 01:22:25,519 Speaker 1: Sean Hey for a couple of things, Paul, Yeah, it 1611 01:22:25,760 --> 01:22:29,400 Speaker 1: was Daria Gumbowali who had that garbage time catch for 1612 01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:32,880 Speaker 1: a touchdown. That screen about that which was it was. 1613 01:22:32,960 --> 01:22:35,479 Speaker 1: It was kind of weird because I think that was 1614 01:22:35,600 --> 01:22:39,799 Speaker 1: his only reception they kept. They threw a few to Armstead, 1615 01:22:39,800 --> 01:22:43,760 Speaker 1: who is I guess in terms of that caller who 1616 01:22:43,800 --> 01:22:46,160 Speaker 1: wrote in is more of what he'd been considered on 1617 01:22:46,280 --> 01:22:48,439 Speaker 1: that bumb level because he was someone who's just like 1618 01:22:48,520 --> 01:22:52,200 Speaker 1: golf the practice squad. But yeah, it was. I thought 1619 01:22:52,200 --> 01:22:53,800 Speaker 1: it was weird the way they used him. It wasn't 1620 01:22:53,840 --> 01:22:57,519 Speaker 1: seven catches like Mike was joking about, but that was. 1621 01:22:57,720 --> 01:23:01,080 Speaker 1: That was one thing. The other thing, I'm kind of 1622 01:23:01,120 --> 01:23:03,679 Speaker 1: concerned about what the Patriots is there the runs, defense 1623 01:23:03,760 --> 01:23:08,240 Speaker 1: and their special teams and um. But this season I 1624 01:23:08,400 --> 01:23:10,519 Speaker 1: didn't expect them to make the playoffs. Here they are, 1625 01:23:10,560 --> 01:23:12,840 Speaker 1: they're going to be in Buffalo. So just hoping that 1626 01:23:13,960 --> 01:23:16,200 Speaker 1: they're going to be able to make up for some 1627 01:23:16,360 --> 01:23:18,800 Speaker 1: of the mistakes they did in the last game and 1628 01:23:19,160 --> 01:23:21,360 Speaker 1: the figure that out and we'll see what happens Saturday night. 1629 01:23:21,960 --> 01:23:24,720 Speaker 1: All right, Thanks Sean. What do you think if you 1630 01:23:24,760 --> 01:23:26,439 Speaker 1: were an opponent take it on the Patriots and you've 1631 01:23:26,439 --> 01:23:28,080 Speaker 1: got a great running back, You're in a great offense. 1632 01:23:28,120 --> 01:23:29,760 Speaker 1: You've got a great passing attack, you've got a great 1633 01:23:29,800 --> 01:23:32,320 Speaker 1: rushing attack. What would you attack the Patriots with? What 1634 01:23:32,520 --> 01:23:34,880 Speaker 1: do you think they're weaker at their run defense or 1635 01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:37,160 Speaker 1: their passing? I would I would just mix it yeah, 1636 01:23:37,200 --> 01:23:40,280 Speaker 1: I mean right, that's a good question. Though. You could 1637 01:23:40,320 --> 01:23:42,120 Speaker 1: do anything you want if you have a good offense. 1638 01:23:42,200 --> 01:23:44,719 Speaker 1: I think yeah. I think when the Patriots looked worse, 1639 01:23:44,920 --> 01:23:47,400 Speaker 1: it's when the other team is mixing it up and 1640 01:23:47,640 --> 01:23:50,880 Speaker 1: and and working fast. Yeah you know, are you up? Yeah? 1641 01:23:51,000 --> 01:23:55,840 Speaker 1: No huddle? Uh yeah, because you if you have a 1642 01:23:56,040 --> 01:23:58,879 Speaker 1: good group of wide receivers like the Bills do, you couldn't. 1643 01:23:59,280 --> 01:24:01,680 Speaker 1: You could take it manage of this secondary which is 1644 01:24:01,760 --> 01:24:03,320 Speaker 1: very weak. But at the same time, if you have 1645 01:24:03,360 --> 01:24:06,360 Speaker 1: a strong running game like Tennessee Cleveland as we've seen, 1646 01:24:06,880 --> 01:24:08,640 Speaker 1: you can run on this team as well. So I 1647 01:24:08,720 --> 01:24:10,800 Speaker 1: think your best bet is to just mix it up, 1648 01:24:10,840 --> 01:24:13,960 Speaker 1: like you said, and keep them on their heels and 1649 01:24:14,360 --> 01:24:18,280 Speaker 1: the wrong. Ye. A couple of things that I would 1650 01:24:18,320 --> 01:24:22,120 Speaker 1: do if I were Buffalo is like they threw the 1651 01:24:22,160 --> 01:24:24,479 Speaker 1: ball forty seven times in the game that they won. 1652 01:24:24,600 --> 01:24:27,120 Speaker 1: I don't think they need to do that. I think 1653 01:24:27,200 --> 01:24:30,920 Speaker 1: that don't waste time trying to establish the run, but 1654 01:24:31,080 --> 01:24:33,400 Speaker 1: don't ignore it either, if that makes any sense. And 1655 01:24:33,479 --> 01:24:35,479 Speaker 1: I know, well that makes a lot of sense, Paul, 1656 01:24:35,520 --> 01:24:37,680 Speaker 1: So run it when you get yards, but don't run 1657 01:24:37,720 --> 01:24:39,200 Speaker 1: it if you're not going to get yuarts like if 1658 01:24:39,240 --> 01:24:44,000 Speaker 1: you you know, obviously, but I feel like to just 1659 01:24:44,080 --> 01:24:46,640 Speaker 1: sit there and say we throw the ball better than 1660 01:24:46,680 --> 01:24:48,479 Speaker 1: we run it. We don't run it really well. Is 1661 01:24:48,560 --> 01:24:51,720 Speaker 1: just ignoring what the Patriot's biggest weaknesses on defense, and 1662 01:24:51,760 --> 01:24:54,800 Speaker 1: that has been stopping the run. They need to come 1663 01:24:54,840 --> 01:24:56,760 Speaker 1: into the game saying I know that we're not a 1664 01:24:56,920 --> 01:24:59,400 Speaker 1: big power running team, but we can run it on 1665 01:24:59,520 --> 01:25:01,880 Speaker 1: this team, and we need to do that a little bit, 1666 01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:03,920 Speaker 1: so it's not all on Josh Allen. And I also 1667 01:25:04,080 --> 01:25:07,920 Speaker 1: would have I would put it in Josh Allen's mind, 1668 01:25:08,200 --> 01:25:11,599 Speaker 1: do not be afraid to use your legs to get yards. Um, 1669 01:25:11,880 --> 01:25:14,880 Speaker 1: you know, don't force it somewhere. Take you know, take 1670 01:25:14,960 --> 01:25:17,640 Speaker 1: the five yard run rather than jamming it into a 1671 01:25:17,760 --> 01:25:21,599 Speaker 1: double coverage situation fifteen yards down field. I think they 1672 01:25:21,640 --> 01:25:25,040 Speaker 1: can do offensively. I think Buffalo was really good and 1673 01:25:25,160 --> 01:25:27,200 Speaker 1: I think when they when they get rolling, they're hard 1674 01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:28,519 Speaker 1: to stop. I think they should be able to do 1675 01:25:28,560 --> 01:25:32,960 Speaker 1: whatever they want let's go to Jeff in California. Hey, Jeff, 1676 01:25:34,840 --> 01:25:40,360 Speaker 1: gentleman of tu Jeff. Yes, So I got a question 1677 01:25:40,479 --> 01:25:42,960 Speaker 1: for you guys, and kind of a game. You guys 1678 01:25:43,000 --> 01:25:45,880 Speaker 1: started to touch on it about Mac, and I'm gonna 1679 01:25:46,000 --> 01:25:49,040 Speaker 1: be full disclosure about it. I was not a Mac 1680 01:25:49,160 --> 01:25:52,800 Speaker 1: fan coming out. I didn't really like him. I thought 1681 01:25:52,880 --> 01:25:54,640 Speaker 1: he was kind of one of these Bama guys that 1682 01:25:54,800 --> 01:25:59,719 Speaker 1: was a little bit limited physically and kind of maybe 1683 01:26:00,040 --> 01:26:04,559 Speaker 1: probably maxed out, didn't have a lot of room for growth, 1684 01:26:05,320 --> 01:26:10,080 Speaker 1: you know, one of the low ceiling, high floor kind 1685 01:26:10,120 --> 01:26:12,840 Speaker 1: of players. And I kind of still feel that way, 1686 01:26:14,160 --> 01:26:16,719 Speaker 1: But at the same time, I agree one hundred percent 1687 01:26:16,880 --> 01:26:19,200 Speaker 1: like at the time they had to take a quarterback 1688 01:26:19,320 --> 01:26:22,040 Speaker 1: and he was the best one available by the time 1689 01:26:22,120 --> 01:26:25,040 Speaker 1: they picked. I would have preferred if they had found 1690 01:26:25,080 --> 01:26:27,680 Speaker 1: a way to move up and maybe get a guy 1691 01:26:27,760 --> 01:26:31,680 Speaker 1: like Justin Fields, who I feel like probably doesn't have 1692 01:26:31,880 --> 01:26:34,280 Speaker 1: as high as a floor but has a much higher 1693 01:26:34,439 --> 01:26:37,120 Speaker 1: ceiling and can make plays with his legs and moved 1694 01:26:37,200 --> 01:26:40,679 Speaker 1: around in the pocket. And so I'm kind of torn 1695 01:26:40,880 --> 01:26:48,040 Speaker 1: on it. But as like a season in review for 1696 01:26:48,160 --> 01:26:50,479 Speaker 1: the regular season, since it's over now, I wanted to 1697 01:26:50,520 --> 01:26:54,960 Speaker 1: get you guys thoughts. As Paul likes to call it, 1698 01:26:55,040 --> 01:26:58,960 Speaker 1: a window into the soul of PU if you guys 1699 01:26:59,000 --> 01:27:01,320 Speaker 1: were the VM, and I'll take it offline after, but 1700 01:27:01,400 --> 01:27:03,280 Speaker 1: I'd like to hear each of you guys what you 1701 01:27:03,360 --> 01:27:07,880 Speaker 1: would each individually do if you were the GM, knowing 1702 01:27:07,960 --> 01:27:11,599 Speaker 1: what you know now, like all the information that's come 1703 01:27:11,680 --> 01:27:14,800 Speaker 1: to you over the course of the season, good, bad, indifferent, 1704 01:27:15,840 --> 01:27:18,720 Speaker 1: if you guys could make the selection, now, would you 1705 01:27:18,880 --> 01:27:22,680 Speaker 1: have rathered to be able to find a way to 1706 01:27:22,800 --> 01:27:25,840 Speaker 1: move up in the first round and let's say, get 1707 01:27:26,320 --> 01:27:28,439 Speaker 1: Jalen Waddle? Okay, so what would we have done in 1708 01:27:28,479 --> 01:27:33,760 Speaker 1: the first round? Right? Yeah? But also the second round 1709 01:27:33,880 --> 01:27:38,000 Speaker 1: because would you have moved up and taken Jalen Waddle 1710 01:27:38,200 --> 01:27:42,160 Speaker 1: in the first round if possible, and then lived with 1711 01:27:44,680 --> 01:27:47,320 Speaker 1: being able to get like Davis Mills at the back 1712 01:27:47,479 --> 01:27:49,880 Speaker 1: end of the Okay, No, that's a that's a good one. Yeah, 1713 01:27:50,040 --> 01:27:53,519 Speaker 1: we were talking about that. We'll do that. Yeah. Yeah. 1714 01:27:53,800 --> 01:27:56,519 Speaker 1: So I I was just talking about this the other 1715 01:27:56,600 --> 01:28:00,200 Speaker 1: day in Miami with someone. I really you know, we've 1716 01:28:00,240 --> 01:28:02,320 Speaker 1: said this on the show. I really think if Wattle 1717 01:28:02,439 --> 01:28:04,519 Speaker 1: was available at fifteen, they were going to take I 1718 01:28:04,640 --> 01:28:06,800 Speaker 1: think that too, and I think I think with the 1719 01:28:06,960 --> 01:28:09,800 Speaker 1: idea that we'll get our quarterback in the second round, 1720 01:28:09,840 --> 01:28:13,120 Speaker 1: whether it's Mac who lasts, or a guy like Davis Mills. 1721 01:28:13,439 --> 01:28:17,759 Speaker 1: I think they were perfectly okay with doing that. Okay, 1722 01:28:18,640 --> 01:28:22,240 Speaker 1: questioning the back, Yes, yes, so if you trade up 1723 01:28:22,560 --> 01:28:24,479 Speaker 1: to get Jaylen Waddle, which I would not have been 1724 01:28:24,520 --> 01:28:27,160 Speaker 1: in favor of. Right, And I'm saying that after we 1725 01:28:27,240 --> 01:28:30,960 Speaker 1: caught one hundred and whatever many passes, what are you 1726 01:28:31,040 --> 01:28:33,719 Speaker 1: giving up to trade up from fifteen? Are you're gonna 1727 01:28:33,760 --> 01:28:38,519 Speaker 1: lose that second round? Yeah? Right, thank you, Mike Assault. Right, 1728 01:28:39,960 --> 01:28:41,960 Speaker 1: so now I don't have a draft pick to get 1729 01:28:42,160 --> 01:28:44,920 Speaker 1: my quarterback. No, I think if you're asking me, would 1730 01:28:44,920 --> 01:28:48,920 Speaker 1: I'd be okay if I got Davis Mills and Jalen Waddle. Yeah. 1731 01:28:49,000 --> 01:28:52,600 Speaker 1: It's much like my my friendly neighborhood buffoons on the 1732 01:28:52,720 --> 01:28:55,400 Speaker 1: radio last week or telling me, well, you know, like 1733 01:28:55,560 --> 01:28:57,000 Speaker 1: how much worse off would they be if it was 1734 01:28:57,080 --> 01:29:00,439 Speaker 1: Davis Mills and Micah Parsons? Not worse off all, except 1735 01:29:00,479 --> 01:29:03,120 Speaker 1: for that Michael Parsons wasn't available at fifteen, Right, So 1736 01:29:03,600 --> 01:29:06,840 Speaker 1: I can just cherry pick the best player who came 1737 01:29:06,880 --> 01:29:11,679 Speaker 1: out of the draft, best defensive player anyway, and say, yeah, 1738 01:29:11,840 --> 01:29:15,680 Speaker 1: him and another quarterback. Sure, I'll take that. Right. Wasn't 1739 01:29:15,680 --> 01:29:18,720 Speaker 1: an option, right, and much like Jalen Waddle was not 1740 01:29:18,800 --> 01:29:21,719 Speaker 1: an option for the page right. So at fifteen, who's 1741 01:29:21,760 --> 01:29:23,720 Speaker 1: the guy that they didn't take that you would have 1742 01:29:23,880 --> 01:29:25,720 Speaker 1: rather have had? No and I would have taken. I 1743 01:29:26,439 --> 01:29:28,560 Speaker 1: like the mac pick just because I'm on board with 1744 01:29:28,760 --> 01:29:31,280 Speaker 1: letting Bill and Josh do what they want till the 1745 01:29:31,400 --> 01:29:33,479 Speaker 1: end and giving them a chance to lay the groundwork 1746 01:29:33,560 --> 01:29:35,760 Speaker 1: for whatever they want next. And if they found a 1747 01:29:35,840 --> 01:29:38,560 Speaker 1: guy that could win the job over the summer and 1748 01:29:38,760 --> 01:29:41,840 Speaker 1: step right in and execute the offense fairly competently this 1749 01:29:41,920 --> 01:29:44,000 Speaker 1: year as a rookie, then I think you got to 1750 01:29:44,040 --> 01:29:46,000 Speaker 1: take that guy and let them, you know, work their 1751 01:29:46,040 --> 01:29:48,120 Speaker 1: magic over the course of the season and going into 1752 01:29:48,240 --> 01:29:50,800 Speaker 1: next year, and let them do what they do, because 1753 01:29:50,840 --> 01:29:52,920 Speaker 1: I think, you know, they if it's their guy and 1754 01:29:53,040 --> 01:29:54,640 Speaker 1: he can do what they want them to do, I 1755 01:29:54,760 --> 01:29:56,000 Speaker 1: want to see it. I want to I want to 1756 01:29:56,040 --> 01:29:58,920 Speaker 1: give them that. Ever, and again, don't take this like 1757 01:30:00,160 --> 01:30:02,559 Speaker 1: you know. I was disappointed they took me. I'm perfectly 1758 01:30:02,640 --> 01:30:04,680 Speaker 1: happy with the fact that they have Matt Jones. I 1759 01:30:05,120 --> 01:30:07,080 Speaker 1: love the fact that they have Matt Jones, I think, 1760 01:30:08,920 --> 01:30:11,519 Speaker 1: but but there is a false narrative out there that 1761 01:30:12,000 --> 01:30:15,639 Speaker 1: the Patriots played their cards perfectly. You know, they waited 1762 01:30:15,720 --> 01:30:17,680 Speaker 1: and they didn't have to use up any capital, and 1763 01:30:17,720 --> 01:30:20,320 Speaker 1: then they got the guy that they wanted without having 1764 01:30:20,400 --> 01:30:24,280 Speaker 1: to use any draft capital and move up again. I 1765 01:30:24,400 --> 01:30:27,519 Speaker 1: think if a couple guys were available at fifteen, mac 1766 01:30:27,600 --> 01:30:29,519 Speaker 1: Jones would not have been the pit, Like what if 1767 01:30:29,560 --> 01:30:33,800 Speaker 1: Pitts was available or Waddle or Chase? You know. So 1768 01:30:34,520 --> 01:30:38,040 Speaker 1: I think they they took the best guy available at fifteen. Yeah, 1769 01:30:38,439 --> 01:30:40,759 Speaker 1: you know, but I think that there were other guys 1770 01:30:40,800 --> 01:30:45,120 Speaker 1: that they liked who they were thinking might slip to fifteen. Yeah. 1771 01:30:45,120 --> 01:30:48,439 Speaker 1: And and I do think that it was hard because 1772 01:30:48,720 --> 01:30:50,840 Speaker 1: I think in the backup Bills Might he had to know, 1773 01:30:51,080 --> 01:30:53,880 Speaker 1: I can't go into another season. He had to take 1774 01:30:53,920 --> 01:30:57,320 Speaker 1: a quarterback with Cam Newton r. That's that's that's the 1775 01:30:57,400 --> 01:30:59,679 Speaker 1: other half of the equation. Yeah, they take Davis Mills. 1776 01:30:59,800 --> 01:31:01,240 Speaker 1: Is he you think he's I mean, do you have 1777 01:31:01,400 --> 01:31:03,400 Speaker 1: designs on him starting? And I think Barmore's part of 1778 01:31:03,439 --> 01:31:06,439 Speaker 1: this too, because you're trading up, you're not getting Christian Barmore. 1779 01:31:06,439 --> 01:31:09,920 Speaker 1: And I think that was another slam dunction. It worked out, 1780 01:31:10,240 --> 01:31:13,240 Speaker 1: It worked out, you know, but like it wasn't like 1781 01:31:13,360 --> 01:31:17,880 Speaker 1: this grand scheme, you know, like and that's what kind 1782 01:31:17,920 --> 01:31:20,840 Speaker 1: of Bill warnts people about all the time, is you know, 1783 01:31:20,840 --> 01:31:22,240 Speaker 1: who are you gonna pick in the first round? Who 1784 01:31:22,240 --> 01:31:23,680 Speaker 1: are you gonna pick in the second round? All right, 1785 01:31:23,720 --> 01:31:26,120 Speaker 1: tell me who everybody in front of me he's gonna pick, 1786 01:31:26,720 --> 01:31:29,040 Speaker 1: and who's willing to do trades? And maybe I'll give you. 1787 01:31:29,120 --> 01:31:31,400 Speaker 1: But you don't know that until draft day. You really 1788 01:31:31,520 --> 01:31:34,240 Speaker 1: don't tell Eldrid we already know his answer to that question. 1789 01:31:34,320 --> 01:31:36,640 Speaker 1: He would take you wantle right. But so you do 1790 01:31:36,800 --> 01:31:40,320 Speaker 1: your best. You prepare for everybody and for any situation. 1791 01:31:40,840 --> 01:31:44,000 Speaker 1: You know, that's all you can do. Be flexible, Yes, 1792 01:31:44,720 --> 01:31:48,080 Speaker 1: do your mock drafts. Uh, let's go to a shot 1793 01:31:48,400 --> 01:31:53,080 Speaker 1: in Baltimore. What's up for Shot Bateman? What what's up? Um? 1794 01:31:53,600 --> 01:31:55,719 Speaker 1: I guess I had a few things first. I wanted 1795 01:31:55,720 --> 01:31:58,880 Speaker 1: to say something about special things. Uh, you guys think 1796 01:31:58,920 --> 01:32:01,599 Speaker 1: we're going to get a new setter teams coach. Uh. 1797 01:32:02,160 --> 01:32:06,120 Speaker 1: I'm not sure the coaching, but yeah, cord I wouldn't 1798 01:32:06,120 --> 01:32:09,200 Speaker 1: dismiss it. I think that's a possibility can be. Yeah, 1799 01:32:09,360 --> 01:32:13,360 Speaker 1: the illegal formation on the on the stale goal, I 1800 01:32:13,439 --> 01:32:15,720 Speaker 1: don't think I've ever seen I don't think I ever 1801 01:32:15,760 --> 01:32:18,800 Speaker 1: seen a penalty like that before. The all of like 1802 01:32:18,960 --> 01:32:22,639 Speaker 1: three block time is just yeah, that's got to change. 1803 01:32:22,680 --> 01:32:24,760 Speaker 1: But when they changed the rule, there was there were 1804 01:32:24,960 --> 01:32:27,280 Speaker 1: quite a few lining up over the center calls, but 1805 01:32:27,400 --> 01:32:30,280 Speaker 1: not later. That goes back. Yeah, seven years, got to 1806 01:32:30,320 --> 01:32:33,880 Speaker 1: be eight, nine, ten years. It's old, right, right. The 1807 01:32:34,000 --> 01:32:36,680 Speaker 1: Patriots made the change that rule because Jamie Collins, no, 1808 01:32:36,920 --> 01:32:39,479 Speaker 1: that first time around, that's you can't jump over the line. 1809 01:32:39,640 --> 01:32:41,680 Speaker 1: That's a different, yeah different. That was actually the Camp 1810 01:32:41,800 --> 01:32:46,040 Speaker 1: Chancellor rule, by the way. Yeah, and I guess I 1811 01:32:46,080 --> 01:32:49,040 Speaker 1: wanted to talk about and you see Saturday. I'm happy 1812 01:32:49,120 --> 01:32:51,120 Speaker 1: that they played that. He don't play at four three. 1813 01:32:51,240 --> 01:32:54,200 Speaker 1: I'm happy that we played Saturday nights. And I saw 1814 01:32:54,280 --> 01:32:56,240 Speaker 1: the weather. I guess it looks like it's gonna be 1815 01:32:56,280 --> 01:32:59,320 Speaker 1: cold the first Saturday afternoon. Maybe the Patriots can do 1816 01:33:00,040 --> 01:33:02,280 Speaker 1: I mean, it's not going to be the three pass game, 1817 01:33:02,360 --> 01:33:04,880 Speaker 1: but he can pass more. But I'm thinking it's got 1818 01:33:05,000 --> 01:33:07,560 Speaker 1: to be a heavy based running game. You gotta be 1819 01:33:07,640 --> 01:33:11,200 Speaker 1: able to control the clock, run the ball. Sure, it 1820 01:33:11,320 --> 01:33:13,920 Speaker 1: only works if your defense shuts them down. I mean, 1821 01:33:13,960 --> 01:33:16,200 Speaker 1: if that's the best thing you do as a team, 1822 01:33:16,400 --> 01:33:18,519 Speaker 1: you better be able to do it. See, I think 1823 01:33:18,560 --> 01:33:20,320 Speaker 1: it's got more to do. On the other side. You 1824 01:33:20,400 --> 01:33:22,200 Speaker 1: can run the ball and control the clock all you want. 1825 01:33:22,200 --> 01:33:24,760 Speaker 1: If the other team is scoring, you gotta score, right, 1826 01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:29,000 Speaker 1: Aldred has a question answered to the question. What was 1827 01:33:29,080 --> 01:33:34,439 Speaker 1: the question? Aldred with me again? It's Jaylen Waddle. Yeah, 1828 01:33:34,479 --> 01:33:38,280 Speaker 1: she would take Jaalen Wattle, but he wasn't available. Yeah, 1829 01:33:38,320 --> 01:33:41,559 Speaker 1: he said, when we are traded up, No, at eleven 1830 01:33:42,120 --> 01:33:46,599 Speaker 1: Parson was there, h the quarterback for Chicago was there, 1831 01:33:46,720 --> 01:33:51,000 Speaker 1: justin justin field. So with Matt Dallas called back at you, 1832 01:33:51,040 --> 01:33:54,040 Speaker 1: do they want to trade? They didn't. Chicago pulled up 1833 01:33:54,280 --> 01:33:58,320 Speaker 1: and took a field, Okay. And then and then like 1834 01:33:58,400 --> 01:34:00,479 Speaker 1: I said, then then Matt, we don't want to so 1835 01:34:00,600 --> 01:34:03,160 Speaker 1: they grabbed Mac right, So we gave our answers. What's 1836 01:34:03,160 --> 01:34:09,320 Speaker 1: your answer? You would have traded up. We know what happened. Okay, 1837 01:34:09,360 --> 01:34:12,080 Speaker 1: you would trade up? Okay, So no Christian Barmore on 1838 01:34:12,160 --> 01:34:16,519 Speaker 1: this team? Well, well maybe not, but I would take that. 1839 01:34:16,640 --> 01:34:20,200 Speaker 1: Swap a quarterback over a defensive lineman. I would take that. 1840 01:34:20,360 --> 01:34:22,519 Speaker 1: I would have took that. Yeah, because like I said, 1841 01:34:22,720 --> 01:34:26,880 Speaker 1: putting with with mc daniels, and Biel. Maybe maybe there 1842 01:34:27,040 --> 01:34:28,400 Speaker 1: might not be the same. Maybe it might be a 1843 01:34:28,439 --> 01:34:30,920 Speaker 1: couple of rugs or a couple of weirds more because 1844 01:34:30,960 --> 01:34:34,160 Speaker 1: he's mobile and he can throw. You know, he's a 1845 01:34:34,200 --> 01:34:37,559 Speaker 1: little accurate. But chicagoing gotten much to work with. Yeah, 1846 01:34:37,600 --> 01:34:40,120 Speaker 1: he's not ready yet either, And I think I think 1847 01:34:40,200 --> 01:34:43,240 Speaker 1: Mac was more prepared to play right away than justin fields. 1848 01:34:43,320 --> 01:34:45,960 Speaker 1: But I saw a lot of good stuff from fields 1849 01:34:46,200 --> 01:34:49,160 Speaker 1: um in short doses. Now here's the thing about those 1850 01:34:49,200 --> 01:34:50,760 Speaker 1: guys that are But you know, the knock on a 1851 01:34:50,840 --> 01:34:53,559 Speaker 1: lot of those guys is when they run around, they 1852 01:34:53,640 --> 01:34:55,840 Speaker 1: make plays, they get hurt. They get hurt, and fields 1853 01:34:55,880 --> 01:34:59,120 Speaker 1: got hurt. Then you go home. Tony writes in uh, 1854 01:34:59,240 --> 01:35:02,360 Speaker 1: this was a success full year. This is a rebuilding team. 1855 01:35:02,720 --> 01:35:05,839 Speaker 1: It's improved. Winning three more games and making the playoffs 1856 01:35:05,960 --> 01:35:09,799 Speaker 1: is evidence. However, the only way to continue this improvement 1857 01:35:09,920 --> 01:35:12,639 Speaker 1: is for the GM to procure playmakers at the wide 1858 01:35:12,680 --> 01:35:16,160 Speaker 1: receiver position. The QB needs at least one, probably two 1859 01:35:16,240 --> 01:35:20,360 Speaker 1: wide receivers. They have one top fifteen tight end I think, 1860 01:35:20,479 --> 01:35:24,040 Speaker 1: and nothing else in terms of passing weapons. The best 1861 01:35:24,120 --> 01:35:27,120 Speaker 1: wide receiver wouldn't crack the top three of any playoff team, 1862 01:35:27,360 --> 01:35:30,280 Speaker 1: and probably of the top twenty teams. He's a solid 1863 01:35:30,400 --> 01:35:34,559 Speaker 1: fourth option on a contender. Belichick cannot overrule his scouts 1864 01:35:34,680 --> 01:35:38,120 Speaker 1: this time and listen to a college coach's recommendation that 1865 01:35:38,360 --> 01:35:42,160 Speaker 1: ended in disaster With Henry. I think you mean Harry. 1866 01:35:42,800 --> 01:35:45,759 Speaker 1: It's all on him now, his young quarterback, his entire 1867 01:35:45,840 --> 01:35:48,599 Speaker 1: team needs this if both are to take the next 1868 01:35:48,640 --> 01:35:54,599 Speaker 1: step and become a true contender next year. Free agency 1869 01:35:54,600 --> 01:35:58,040 Speaker 1: wide receivers free agency. I think I led the show 1870 01:35:58,080 --> 01:36:00,439 Speaker 1: by saying, I'm not sure we don't have any. Yeah, 1871 01:36:00,920 --> 01:36:03,599 Speaker 1: we'll get them soon. No, but I would be surprised 1872 01:36:03,640 --> 01:36:07,479 Speaker 1: to see them really go after a high profile yeah, 1873 01:36:07,680 --> 01:36:10,400 Speaker 1: free agent wide receiver. I probably would be a little 1874 01:36:10,400 --> 01:36:12,599 Speaker 1: surprised at that too. I would only be surprised because 1875 01:36:12,600 --> 01:36:15,560 Speaker 1: they just invested heavily free agents, right, not because I 1876 01:36:15,600 --> 01:36:17,840 Speaker 1: don't think they would sign a big money wide receiver. 1877 01:36:17,960 --> 01:36:19,800 Speaker 1: I think the draft is as I think the draft 1878 01:36:19,920 --> 01:36:22,439 Speaker 1: is a possibility, and that's what I mean. I just 1879 01:36:22,479 --> 01:36:24,080 Speaker 1: think you have to realize what team you are right 1880 01:36:24,120 --> 01:36:26,599 Speaker 1: now with Mac Jones and your year two, what your 1881 01:36:26,640 --> 01:36:29,200 Speaker 1: window quote unquote is going to be, where your defense 1882 01:36:29,360 --> 01:36:31,840 Speaker 1: is at. You know, I think you spent a lot 1883 01:36:31,880 --> 01:36:33,760 Speaker 1: of money last year on free agents in the in 1884 01:36:33,800 --> 01:36:36,400 Speaker 1: their twenties on you know, their second NFL deals. You 1885 01:36:36,479 --> 01:36:38,559 Speaker 1: got guys still in their prime that still have football 1886 01:36:38,600 --> 01:36:41,519 Speaker 1: to play. Add add on the back end, add to 1887 01:36:41,600 --> 01:36:43,840 Speaker 1: the young end of that, get some young linebackers. Get 1888 01:36:43,880 --> 01:36:46,280 Speaker 1: a young cornerback. I want to see a little more 1889 01:36:46,280 --> 01:36:49,519 Speaker 1: of a youth movie. Who can help Matt Moore? A 1890 01:36:49,720 --> 01:36:52,559 Speaker 1: Randy Moss type player or a Wes Welker type player. 1891 01:36:53,160 --> 01:36:57,040 Speaker 1: Welcome either one. Um, I'd rather have Moss. Either one 1892 01:36:57,120 --> 01:37:00,679 Speaker 1: would help a lot. Probably I would probably tend toward 1893 01:37:00,720 --> 01:37:03,600 Speaker 1: the slot guy because I don't think Max throwing a 1894 01:37:03,640 --> 01:37:06,360 Speaker 1: lot of bombs, But but his bombs will look better 1895 01:37:06,400 --> 01:37:08,040 Speaker 1: with a guy like Moss. Can I ask for Randy 1896 01:37:08,080 --> 01:37:10,360 Speaker 1: Moss and his prime not the Randy Moss the Patriots guys? 1897 01:37:10,360 --> 01:37:13,200 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, sure, then I'll take Moss. Yeah, which Wes 1898 01:37:13,280 --> 01:37:16,640 Speaker 1: Welker Again. What I'm saying is West Welker at his 1899 01:37:16,720 --> 01:37:19,439 Speaker 1: best is not taking one of those crossers and going seventy. 1900 01:37:19,800 --> 01:37:22,120 Speaker 1: Randy Moss has taken a crosser and go And I think, 1901 01:37:22,200 --> 01:37:28,120 Speaker 1: like the Welker of it all, Um, the Welcer that 1902 01:37:28,360 --> 01:37:30,560 Speaker 1: he's a very specific slot receiver. But I think I 1903 01:37:30,800 --> 01:37:33,120 Speaker 1: think there are other kinds of slot receivers, you know, 1904 01:37:33,280 --> 01:37:35,040 Speaker 1: like waddle like like you know that that maybe have 1905 01:37:35,080 --> 01:37:36,560 Speaker 1: a little more burst. I mean, welc are such a 1906 01:37:36,640 --> 01:37:38,479 Speaker 1: unique guy. It's it's like they don't those guys don't 1907 01:37:38,479 --> 01:37:41,880 Speaker 1: just keep popping up every year. Cooper Cump. Well, yes, 1908 01:37:42,200 --> 01:37:44,800 Speaker 1: that's a slot receivers dynamic as any player in the 1909 01:37:44,840 --> 01:37:47,639 Speaker 1: league right right, some real speed and just the ability 1910 01:37:47,640 --> 01:37:49,600 Speaker 1: to get open quick I think that's the that's the 1911 01:37:49,640 --> 01:37:52,040 Speaker 1: biggest thing. I like Jacobe Myers. I think he wins 1912 01:37:52,120 --> 01:37:55,320 Speaker 1: more with his smarts than he does his physical you know, 1913 01:37:55,520 --> 01:37:57,439 Speaker 1: speed ors quickness. I think they just need a guy 1914 01:37:57,479 --> 01:38:00,360 Speaker 1: who's lightning fast and pop can get open, catch the 1915 01:38:00,439 --> 01:38:02,240 Speaker 1: ball and get up field. And that's what you see 1916 01:38:02,240 --> 01:38:04,840 Speaker 1: at a wattle a lot. Here we go, uh vip 1917 01:38:05,000 --> 01:38:10,439 Speaker 1: stripper says Josh Allen's YPA splits in cold weather five 1918 01:38:10,520 --> 01:38:14,040 Speaker 1: point six versus warm seven point eight have been dramatic 1919 01:38:14,160 --> 01:38:16,800 Speaker 1: in a similar number of attempts, as the Bills are 1920 01:38:16,840 --> 01:38:19,400 Speaker 1: currently built to play best in the Dome. And that's 1921 01:38:19,479 --> 01:38:22,720 Speaker 1: via Yahoo Sports. Yeah, and that's all great if they 1922 01:38:22,760 --> 01:38:27,559 Speaker 1: can hold him under thirty. Yeah, because I don't feel 1923 01:38:27,600 --> 01:38:30,799 Speaker 1: great about the Patriots offensive. They had twenty nine against 1924 01:38:30,880 --> 01:38:34,680 Speaker 1: Atlanta and twenty seven against the Jets, Right, I mean, 1925 01:38:34,760 --> 01:38:36,960 Speaker 1: if they're up there, you're in trouble. And and if 1926 01:38:37,000 --> 01:38:39,600 Speaker 1: his yards per attempt go down, they don't care, right 1927 01:38:39,640 --> 01:38:41,080 Speaker 1: But I'm saying I only care about the amount of 1928 01:38:41,120 --> 01:38:43,360 Speaker 1: points on the board, right, But and his yards per 1929 01:38:43,360 --> 01:38:45,240 Speaker 1: attempt could go down if he's doing what he did 1930 01:38:45,360 --> 01:38:47,000 Speaker 1: a lot in the last game, which is checking down 1931 01:38:47,040 --> 01:38:49,760 Speaker 1: to his running back and getting shorter yardage plays which 1932 01:38:49,840 --> 01:38:54,760 Speaker 1: the ball down the field that you know attempts. But 1933 01:38:54,840 --> 01:38:58,800 Speaker 1: that's another really good point. Yeah, so let's let's just 1934 01:38:58,920 --> 01:39:04,360 Speaker 1: look at that three fourteen. You can look at the 1935 01:39:04,520 --> 01:39:06,960 Speaker 1: numbers all you want. That he averaged six and a 1936 01:39:07,000 --> 01:39:08,960 Speaker 1: half per attempt in the game, that he threw for 1937 01:39:09,040 --> 01:39:11,479 Speaker 1: three hundred yards, three touchdowns, and put thirty three on 1938 01:39:11,560 --> 01:39:16,320 Speaker 1: the board. So that's much lower than his warm weather numbers, right. Yeah. 1939 01:39:16,360 --> 01:39:18,720 Speaker 1: I also think we're mixing up wind and cold, and 1940 01:39:18,880 --> 01:39:21,280 Speaker 1: like the wind is is a thing that grounds the 1941 01:39:21,280 --> 01:39:23,920 Speaker 1: passing and the correct it affects everybody kind of like, 1942 01:39:24,000 --> 01:39:26,479 Speaker 1: you know, I don't really see this being an advantage 1943 01:39:26,479 --> 01:39:28,400 Speaker 1: if it's the wind allowed him to only throw the 1944 01:39:28,479 --> 01:39:31,880 Speaker 1: ball thirty times as opposed to forty seven. Like I 1945 01:39:31,960 --> 01:39:34,880 Speaker 1: don't care necessarily about the production as much as I 1946 01:39:35,000 --> 01:39:38,840 Speaker 1: do the points. And who's gonna cover these people? Who's 1947 01:39:38,840 --> 01:39:40,760 Speaker 1: gonna cover all these people that the bills like he 1948 01:39:40,840 --> 01:39:42,680 Speaker 1: just heard that from like the coaching room down, and 1949 01:39:42,800 --> 01:39:45,760 Speaker 1: who's gonna cover all these guys? Probably probably gonna cover 1950 01:39:46,040 --> 01:39:48,160 Speaker 1: Tim mur Fredfred Duncan writes said, first, I have to 1951 01:39:48,200 --> 01:39:50,879 Speaker 1: give credit to Paul in regards to the rookie Offensive 1952 01:39:50,920 --> 01:39:52,880 Speaker 1: Player of the Year. I have thought most of the 1953 01:39:52,960 --> 01:39:55,479 Speaker 1: season that it rightfully belonged to Mac, but the last 1954 01:39:55,560 --> 01:39:58,240 Speaker 1: quarter of the season confirmed that it belongs to Jamar 1955 01:39:58,840 --> 01:40:00,719 Speaker 1: just And if you guys watched them play after missing 1956 01:40:00,720 --> 01:40:03,439 Speaker 1: it the first thirteen and it's not even close onto 1957 01:40:03,560 --> 01:40:06,280 Speaker 1: this week's game. I keep hearing the debate as to 1958 01:40:06,360 --> 01:40:09,400 Speaker 1: whether defer to start the game and kick off or 1959 01:40:09,520 --> 01:40:14,719 Speaker 1: take the ball assuming they win the coin flip. I believe, 1960 01:40:15,400 --> 01:40:17,680 Speaker 1: uh this is to take the ball game, it will 1961 01:40:17,720 --> 01:40:20,400 Speaker 1: only get colder and potentially the weather will only get 1962 01:40:20,479 --> 01:40:23,120 Speaker 1: worse as the game goes on. This team has showed 1963 01:40:23,200 --> 01:40:25,800 Speaker 1: that it needs a lead early to build upon. I 1964 01:40:25,920 --> 01:40:28,200 Speaker 1: can hear you saying, well, what if they don't score. 1965 01:40:28,560 --> 01:40:30,760 Speaker 1: I say, what if you have a seven minute drive 1966 01:40:30,840 --> 01:40:33,880 Speaker 1: with a touchdown to start the game, The chances of 1967 01:40:33,920 --> 01:40:36,200 Speaker 1: scoring first and getting the lead have to be better 1968 01:40:36,520 --> 01:40:38,519 Speaker 1: if you get to kick off, and by the second 1969 01:40:38,560 --> 01:40:41,280 Speaker 1: half the defense has a better understanding of the game 1970 01:40:41,560 --> 01:40:44,120 Speaker 1: and should be better prepared to handle the extra possession. 1971 01:40:45,320 --> 01:40:47,880 Speaker 1: I do feel cautiously optimistic for the game as long 1972 01:40:47,920 --> 01:40:49,880 Speaker 1: as they can keep the mistakes to a minimum while 1973 01:40:49,960 --> 01:40:53,439 Speaker 1: playing aggressively. I like, I might be Team Eric this week. 1974 01:40:53,479 --> 01:40:58,400 Speaker 1: I mean, there's no chances unless this wind that you 1975 01:40:58,560 --> 01:41:00,920 Speaker 1: want to try to strategically get in the fourth quarter, 1976 01:41:01,760 --> 01:41:04,320 Speaker 1: which I don't know that, but you're telling me that 1977 01:41:04,439 --> 01:41:07,439 Speaker 1: the conditions are going to be markedly worse temperature wise 1978 01:41:07,920 --> 01:41:10,320 Speaker 1: at ten o'clock as opposed to eight o'clock. Right, that's 1979 01:41:10,360 --> 01:41:12,240 Speaker 1: not how weather works. I think what you're saying, Deuce 1980 01:41:12,400 --> 01:41:14,080 Speaker 1: is that you don't want them to get in a 1981 01:41:14,120 --> 01:41:16,840 Speaker 1: position where they're down on the scoreboard. Right. Well, I mean, 1982 01:41:16,880 --> 01:41:19,600 Speaker 1: I just think it's it's worth saying. How you know, 1983 01:41:19,720 --> 01:41:22,559 Speaker 1: the defense kind of goes out there and right down 1984 01:41:22,600 --> 01:41:24,160 Speaker 1: the field, So I mean, how many times you need 1985 01:41:24,200 --> 01:41:25,479 Speaker 1: to see that to think are they going to come 1986 01:41:25,479 --> 01:41:26,920 Speaker 1: out and it's I mean, you know, i'd be a 1987 01:41:26,960 --> 01:41:29,760 Speaker 1: little facetious, but but still, you know, I think it's 1988 01:41:29,800 --> 01:41:31,680 Speaker 1: just something to consider when you think, hey, they used 1989 01:41:31,800 --> 01:41:33,519 Speaker 1: to played pretty good in the third quarters. I don't know. 1990 01:41:33,600 --> 01:41:38,840 Speaker 1: I mean Miami's scoring drives seventy seven yards, seventy seven yards, 1991 01:41:39,880 --> 01:41:42,760 Speaker 1: forty five yards. Um, the Patriots aren't great in the 1992 01:41:42,840 --> 01:41:46,080 Speaker 1: third quarter. No great. I don't think second and fourth 1993 01:41:46,120 --> 01:41:49,280 Speaker 1: of their quarters one forty three to seventy seven, one 1994 01:41:49,479 --> 01:41:52,120 Speaker 1: sixty five to seventy one, first and third are basically 1995 01:41:52,400 --> 01:41:56,519 Speaker 1: it just blew up. My whole anecdote with facts stopped. Well, 1996 01:41:56,560 --> 01:41:59,080 Speaker 1: I just because my mind's because I keep thinking of 1997 01:41:59,160 --> 01:42:03,439 Speaker 1: all these you know, counterpoints to my defer is like 1998 01:42:03,560 --> 01:42:05,720 Speaker 1: you keep thinking, oh, well they had a bad first step, 1999 01:42:05,720 --> 01:42:07,360 Speaker 1: but they got the ball coming out, and every time 2000 01:42:07,400 --> 01:42:09,559 Speaker 1: they do they go three high, right, so it doesn't 2001 01:42:09,600 --> 01:42:12,280 Speaker 1: really matter. But I think the Buffalo, I mean that 2002 01:42:12,400 --> 01:42:15,000 Speaker 1: place in the first quarter you get the ball, I mean, 2003 01:42:15,080 --> 01:42:18,000 Speaker 1: that's gonna be a raucous atmosphere, hard to go out there. 2004 01:42:18,040 --> 01:42:20,600 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna if they decide, if they decide to 2005 01:42:20,640 --> 01:42:22,680 Speaker 1: take the ball, I'm not gonna kill them. It's not 2006 01:42:22,760 --> 01:42:24,800 Speaker 1: it's not gonna be the reason why they win or lose. Right, 2007 01:42:25,120 --> 01:42:28,040 Speaker 1: But I just feel like, just for the off chance 2008 01:42:28,520 --> 01:42:30,840 Speaker 1: for the double, I would I would do it that way, 2009 01:42:30,880 --> 01:42:35,160 Speaker 1: but it's not iteent of football. Games are not decided 2010 01:42:35,200 --> 01:42:38,680 Speaker 1: by what a team opted to do after the coin toss, right, 2011 01:42:39,160 --> 01:42:40,760 Speaker 1: I mean, every once in a while you get the 2012 01:42:40,840 --> 01:42:44,240 Speaker 1: double score and it really swung the momentum. I was 2013 01:42:44,360 --> 01:42:46,719 Speaker 1: joking with Eric fred I don't know if you happen 2014 01:42:46,760 --> 01:42:48,799 Speaker 1: to notice you watch any of the game on Saturday, 2015 01:42:48,880 --> 01:42:51,200 Speaker 1: or you just in the the ocean living it up 2016 01:42:51,240 --> 01:42:54,599 Speaker 1: in Miami, floating Kansas City, Kansas City and Denver player, 2017 01:42:54,960 --> 01:42:56,799 Speaker 1: watch did you watch it? I was at a Hooters. 2018 01:42:56,840 --> 01:42:58,640 Speaker 1: I watched the whole thing. Okay, so maybe at a 2019 01:42:58,680 --> 01:43:01,640 Speaker 1: Hooters you might have had the game, your attention was 2020 01:43:01,720 --> 01:43:04,920 Speaker 1: drawn to other things, especially at Hooters in Miami. The wings. Um. 2021 01:43:05,120 --> 01:43:07,240 Speaker 1: I can only imagine what the Hooters in Miami looks like, 2022 01:43:07,400 --> 01:43:12,599 Speaker 1: but probably better than Sauga's, right, maybe, so Tanner Denver 2023 01:43:13,160 --> 01:43:18,280 Speaker 1: won the toss and elected to Recaul was given. So 2024 01:43:18,360 --> 01:43:20,840 Speaker 1: I gave this teric. But here's how here's how said 2025 01:43:20,880 --> 01:43:24,280 Speaker 1: game unfolded. Yeah, Denver went three and out. Kansas took 2026 01:43:24,320 --> 01:43:27,040 Speaker 1: the ball, went down the field, scored, got the ball 2027 01:43:27,080 --> 01:43:28,479 Speaker 1: at the end of the half, went down the field 2028 01:43:28,520 --> 01:43:30,040 Speaker 1: to kick the field goal, got the ball to start 2029 01:43:30,160 --> 01:43:33,040 Speaker 1: the third quarter, win down the field, score a touchdown. Right, 2030 01:43:33,680 --> 01:43:37,280 Speaker 1: you can make is right. You can make an argument 2031 01:43:37,360 --> 01:43:39,160 Speaker 1: that was one of those games, one of those like 2032 01:43:39,320 --> 01:43:42,400 Speaker 1: five percent of NFL games that having the start of 2033 01:43:42,479 --> 01:43:44,680 Speaker 1: the second half, you know, was was the difference in 2034 01:43:44,720 --> 01:43:48,879 Speaker 1: the game? Shrisha in Bangalore, Right soon spent a tumultu 2035 01:43:48,960 --> 01:43:50,560 Speaker 1: was a few weeks for the Patriots. But we're in 2036 01:43:50,640 --> 01:43:54,679 Speaker 1: the playoffs. But before I have the Bill's game related stuff, 2037 01:43:54,680 --> 01:43:56,720 Speaker 1: I just want to say, how the hell does Joe 2038 01:43:56,800 --> 01:43:59,280 Speaker 1: Judge have a job? I'm not want to call for 2039 01:43:59,400 --> 01:44:02,120 Speaker 1: sacking and one, but that man is one heck of 2040 01:44:02,160 --> 01:44:05,519 Speaker 1: a mystery there. Um. Now to the wild card weekend. 2041 01:44:05,600 --> 01:44:07,280 Speaker 1: I don't think we have much of a chance of 2042 01:44:07,360 --> 01:44:10,759 Speaker 1: winning this weekend. We should not. We could not stop 2043 01:44:10,800 --> 01:44:13,599 Speaker 1: the pass because our secondary stinks, we don't have any 2044 01:44:13,680 --> 01:44:16,479 Speaker 1: good corners to go with JC, and our linebackers are 2045 01:44:16,520 --> 01:44:19,320 Speaker 1: too slow. And now that Barmore is out, I don't 2046 01:44:19,320 --> 01:44:21,800 Speaker 1: think we can stop the run, not like we did 2047 01:44:21,840 --> 01:44:23,680 Speaker 1: a good job when we had him. So I think 2048 01:44:23,720 --> 01:44:26,800 Speaker 1: this will be a short playoff run. Well, we don't 2049 01:44:26,880 --> 01:44:29,439 Speaker 1: know that Barmore's out. Plus he's not on there in 2050 01:44:29,479 --> 01:44:33,240 Speaker 1: early downs anyway. You know, he's usually he's a little bit. 2051 01:44:33,920 --> 01:44:35,920 Speaker 1: He does play a lot, but like if he's off, 2052 01:44:36,000 --> 01:44:39,280 Speaker 1: it's first down, you know, early in the game. But 2053 01:44:39,320 --> 01:44:41,360 Speaker 1: I think he see they've been playing him doing everything, 2054 01:44:41,479 --> 01:44:45,599 Speaker 1: and he's continued to I'm with you, though, I don't 2055 01:44:45,800 --> 01:44:47,800 Speaker 1: like his chances are playing just because of the way 2056 01:44:47,880 --> 01:44:50,519 Speaker 1: he left the game. But I he certainly hasn't been 2057 01:44:50,520 --> 01:44:53,240 Speaker 1: confirmed that he's out or I just thought of something. Wow, 2058 01:44:53,960 --> 01:44:55,560 Speaker 1: you know, you know what I saw yesterday was that 2059 01:44:55,680 --> 01:44:57,920 Speaker 1: you know how Pro Football Focus always puts out like 2060 01:44:58,000 --> 01:45:00,280 Speaker 1: the top five performers from the game, and they like 2061 01:45:00,400 --> 01:45:04,519 Speaker 1: who the five guys were? So Davon Godcha like retweeted it. 2062 01:45:04,640 --> 01:45:07,680 Speaker 1: He was like number three in that game, really and 2063 01:45:08,439 --> 01:45:13,200 Speaker 1: they had one hundred and ninety five yards. Look, and 2064 01:45:13,320 --> 01:45:15,320 Speaker 1: what did he not play a lot? Was it like 2065 01:45:15,400 --> 01:45:18,759 Speaker 1: one of those snap count things? Oh no, he played 2066 01:45:18,840 --> 01:45:24,479 Speaker 1: forty three plays. Yeah, he played. Sorry, that's another that's 2067 01:45:24,479 --> 01:45:27,000 Speaker 1: another one that cast dispersions on PF. You allowed one 2068 01:45:27,080 --> 01:45:28,960 Speaker 1: hundred and ninety five yards rushing, but yet one of 2069 01:45:29,040 --> 01:45:35,000 Speaker 1: your guys in the front was great. Okay, um um okay. 2070 01:45:35,240 --> 01:45:37,080 Speaker 1: I mean maybe he wasn't as bad as the rest, 2071 01:45:37,640 --> 01:45:39,519 Speaker 1: but he was one of the best players in the field. 2072 01:45:39,520 --> 01:45:41,720 Speaker 1: He's like, they were running away from me all day. Run. 2073 01:45:41,800 --> 01:45:44,439 Speaker 1: On the other side, James Pettig grew, the most interesting 2074 01:45:44,479 --> 01:45:47,439 Speaker 1: Patriots fan of the world, says, Buffalo maybe built for 2075 01:45:47,520 --> 01:45:54,320 Speaker 1: a dome. Unfortunately our team is built for a hurricane. Um. Yeah, 2076 01:45:54,400 --> 01:45:57,040 Speaker 1: and the whole Like I get, I get why people 2077 01:45:57,080 --> 01:46:02,800 Speaker 1: are not necessarily thrilled this matchup, but there is a 2078 01:46:02,920 --> 01:46:07,080 Speaker 1: lot of uh sort of knowledge here on both sides. 2079 01:46:07,160 --> 01:46:10,000 Speaker 1: And you know, Bill knows building. Bill has seen a 2080 01:46:10,080 --> 01:46:14,160 Speaker 1: lot of this stuff. And I got to think to 2081 01:46:14,320 --> 01:46:16,120 Speaker 1: say that they don't have a chance, I think, is oh, 2082 01:46:16,200 --> 01:46:19,080 Speaker 1: that's crazy, really crazy, that's that's really out there. I 2083 01:46:19,160 --> 01:46:21,400 Speaker 1: was just I wanted, Bills, I want another shot of 2084 01:46:21,479 --> 01:46:25,560 Speaker 1: these guys. Let's go. I just wanted. I thought you 2085 01:46:25,600 --> 01:46:27,560 Speaker 1: didn't waste your time with that. I don't now we 2086 01:46:27,640 --> 01:46:29,200 Speaker 1: find out that you wanted. I don't do it out 2087 01:46:29,240 --> 01:46:33,240 Speaker 1: of fear. I'm afraid to play about fear. It's about desire. No, 2088 01:46:33,400 --> 01:46:36,280 Speaker 1: it's the path of least resistance. That's what it is 2089 01:46:36,360 --> 01:46:39,320 Speaker 1: what you want path of least resistance. I'm not doing that. 2090 01:46:39,400 --> 01:46:42,599 Speaker 1: I wanted the Bengals only because I wanted a different opponent, 2091 01:46:42,720 --> 01:46:46,599 Speaker 1: something exciting professionally from a professional like for this show. Yeah, 2092 01:46:47,320 --> 01:46:50,840 Speaker 1: but that's why not most people. Most people like Who's 2093 01:46:50,880 --> 01:46:53,120 Speaker 1: the East. People wanted Buffalo because they thought they were easy. 2094 01:46:53,160 --> 01:46:55,320 Speaker 1: Who's the team that we have the easiest chance to beat? 2095 01:46:55,400 --> 01:46:58,640 Speaker 1: And everybody thought that was Buffalo wish for. But you 2096 01:46:58,720 --> 01:47:01,479 Speaker 1: know that's fine. All the fan holes that these your 2097 01:47:01,520 --> 01:47:05,320 Speaker 1: stations are putting up there, they all said, your competings, 2098 01:47:06,120 --> 01:47:07,920 Speaker 1: I want them just to get another crack at them, 2099 01:47:07,920 --> 01:47:09,560 Speaker 1: because I think it could be I like that, and 2100 01:47:09,680 --> 01:47:11,519 Speaker 1: there's an element that I like to this that it 2101 01:47:11,680 --> 01:47:14,160 Speaker 1: stays in the division. And you know, for me, that's 2102 01:47:14,200 --> 01:47:16,160 Speaker 1: always where I kind of start my focus of the 2103 01:47:16,240 --> 01:47:18,479 Speaker 1: year of getting to the playoffs through the division. You 2104 01:47:18,600 --> 01:47:22,439 Speaker 1: finished three and three, you lost bookend games to the Dolphins, 2105 01:47:22,720 --> 01:47:25,040 Speaker 1: you got beat pretty handily by the Bills for the 2106 01:47:25,120 --> 01:47:26,920 Speaker 1: second time in a row at home, and now you 2107 01:47:27,000 --> 01:47:28,439 Speaker 1: get another chance at the Bills. So I think you 2108 01:47:28,520 --> 01:47:30,760 Speaker 1: come out of the season with, you know, a lot 2109 01:47:30,800 --> 01:47:33,400 Speaker 1: of thoughts on the division and how we stack up 2110 01:47:33,439 --> 01:47:36,000 Speaker 1: and we got two shots at or a second shot 2111 01:47:36,000 --> 01:47:38,360 Speaker 1: at Buffalo up there? How does that go? Does that 2112 01:47:38,479 --> 01:47:40,280 Speaker 1: look any different than it looked when it was here 2113 01:47:40,479 --> 01:47:42,920 Speaker 1: in regular conditions? I think that's a lot of what 2114 01:47:43,000 --> 01:47:44,479 Speaker 1: you're pondering in the off season is how do the 2115 01:47:44,479 --> 01:47:47,120 Speaker 1: Patriots stack up in the division. Of course, Flora's leaving 2116 01:47:47,160 --> 01:47:49,040 Speaker 1: I think changes that dynamic a little bit, because I 2117 01:47:49,080 --> 01:47:50,920 Speaker 1: think if he was still there, you probably have an 2118 01:47:51,000 --> 01:47:52,880 Speaker 1: argument of saying they're the third best team in the 2119 01:47:52,960 --> 01:47:55,080 Speaker 1: division even though they finished second. Right now, and how 2120 01:47:55,120 --> 01:47:58,519 Speaker 1: do you get out of that right uh? Prenae writes 2121 01:47:58,560 --> 01:48:02,040 Speaker 1: in from Chicago. My opinion with season in review, with 2122 01:48:02,120 --> 01:48:04,200 Speaker 1: all the information I have now compared to when the 2123 01:48:04,240 --> 01:48:06,800 Speaker 1: season started, I think when Mac was able to get 2124 01:48:07,200 --> 01:48:11,439 Speaker 1: starting the starting quarterback job from Newton, everyone just went 2125 01:48:11,520 --> 01:48:13,560 Speaker 1: back to OH one and compared him to Brady. But 2126 01:48:13,720 --> 01:48:16,840 Speaker 1: my opinion is Newton is such a bad quarterback. Even 2127 01:48:16,920 --> 01:48:19,479 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold was able to take back the job from him, 2128 01:48:19,760 --> 01:48:23,679 Speaker 1: even though he's terrible. Point, I think when the season started, 2129 01:48:23,720 --> 01:48:27,040 Speaker 1: getting the QB one job as an indication on camp 2130 01:48:27,120 --> 01:48:30,240 Speaker 1: status more than the ability of Mac. Now, I think 2131 01:48:30,320 --> 01:48:32,840 Speaker 1: anyone can get the job from Cam like Paul said 2132 01:48:32,880 --> 01:48:36,000 Speaker 1: a couple of times. So my final opinion is if 2133 01:48:36,040 --> 01:48:38,479 Speaker 1: the team is loaded with weapons, he can definitely take 2134 01:48:38,520 --> 01:48:41,000 Speaker 1: you to the super Bowl like he did with Alabama. 2135 01:48:41,160 --> 01:48:43,439 Speaker 1: But I don't know if he is capable of winning 2136 01:48:43,479 --> 01:48:47,920 Speaker 1: games without help like Brady always did. Yeah, well, maybe 2137 01:48:48,000 --> 01:48:52,560 Speaker 1: not yet, but he could be. Nobody's able to do 2138 01:48:52,640 --> 01:48:54,760 Speaker 1: what Brady can do. And I think it too, Like 2139 01:48:55,160 --> 01:48:57,840 Speaker 1: to the guy's point, that's what people were saying. Yeah, 2140 01:48:57,880 --> 01:48:59,920 Speaker 1: but I think I think Mac did win the job. 2141 01:49:00,400 --> 01:49:03,040 Speaker 1: I don't. I mean Cam was bad, but I think 2142 01:49:03,080 --> 01:49:05,160 Speaker 1: we saw enough out of Mac in training camp that 2143 01:49:05,280 --> 01:49:08,000 Speaker 1: it was impressive and that he played well and it 2144 01:49:08,120 --> 01:49:10,840 Speaker 1: wasn't like Man, He's just less of a disaster than 2145 01:49:10,960 --> 01:49:13,040 Speaker 1: Cam is. That's kind of how I felt. Yeah, I 2146 01:49:13,080 --> 01:49:16,040 Speaker 1: don't think he lost the job. I think Cam. I 2147 01:49:16,080 --> 01:49:20,719 Speaker 1: mean I think Cam was. I think Cam was. Note 2148 01:49:21,040 --> 01:49:23,280 Speaker 1: the COVID thing was the final nail. I don't think 2149 01:49:23,360 --> 01:49:26,280 Speaker 1: Cam from the time we saw him in OTA's all 2150 01:49:26,360 --> 01:49:28,040 Speaker 1: the way through the last day, he was a Patriot. 2151 01:49:28,120 --> 01:49:30,360 Speaker 1: Never looked any different than he did last year. No. Now, 2152 01:49:30,439 --> 01:49:32,880 Speaker 1: you you guys all saw how he played last year, 2153 01:49:33,360 --> 01:49:35,080 Speaker 1: you might not have seen all the practices the way 2154 01:49:35,120 --> 01:49:37,720 Speaker 1: we did. But you saw how he played last year. 2155 01:49:37,840 --> 01:49:40,439 Speaker 1: That's the same as he looked. Ye I don't think. 2156 01:49:40,720 --> 01:49:46,000 Speaker 1: I think Mac was on virtually every day. He was 2157 01:49:46,040 --> 01:49:48,840 Speaker 1: better than Cam by a lot. No, but Mac was. 2158 01:49:48,960 --> 01:49:51,800 Speaker 1: I mean Cam was bad. Yea. I think I kind 2159 01:49:51,840 --> 01:49:53,639 Speaker 1: of think he did lose the job. I don't understand 2160 01:49:53,640 --> 01:49:55,560 Speaker 1: why he was back in the first place. I just 2161 01:49:55,680 --> 01:49:59,120 Speaker 1: know how my feelings barts in Poland. Is it just me? 2162 01:49:59,439 --> 01:50:01,880 Speaker 1: Or is play Buffalo as a number six seed better 2163 01:50:01,960 --> 01:50:04,479 Speaker 1: than playing them as a number five seed. The Chefs 2164 01:50:04,520 --> 01:50:07,000 Speaker 1: are winning against the Steelers, so if we win, we 2165 01:50:07,120 --> 01:50:10,599 Speaker 1: get the Titans. No matter what. Josh Allen actually plays 2166 01:50:10,720 --> 01:50:12,680 Speaker 1: much worse at home. So let's just hope for a 2167 01:50:12,760 --> 01:50:15,720 Speaker 1: weather game, and I can see us easily coming out 2168 01:50:15,760 --> 01:50:18,720 Speaker 1: of Buffalo with a victory. Also, why didn't need to 2169 01:50:18,760 --> 01:50:21,519 Speaker 1: hope for a weather game because it's going to be easy. 2170 01:50:22,080 --> 01:50:23,880 Speaker 1: If it's gonna be easy, Why didn't need to hope 2171 01:50:23,880 --> 01:50:25,320 Speaker 1: for a weather game? Oh what the weather it becomes. 2172 01:50:25,479 --> 01:50:27,360 Speaker 1: You should hope that they have a retractable dome if 2173 01:50:27,360 --> 01:50:29,360 Speaker 1: you think it's gonna be Also, what a bummer that 2174 01:50:29,479 --> 01:50:31,840 Speaker 1: it wasn't a tie in Sunday Night football. Now we 2175 01:50:31,920 --> 01:50:34,240 Speaker 1: are going to see the Steelers in the playoffs. Basically 2176 01:50:34,320 --> 01:50:36,960 Speaker 1: a buy for Kansas City. But you're right, you're a 2177 01:50:37,000 --> 01:50:39,080 Speaker 1: larger point, is right. Mike was all over that one 2178 01:50:39,200 --> 01:50:43,600 Speaker 1: during the postgame show. I think, yeah, it lines you 2179 01:50:43,760 --> 01:50:47,280 Speaker 1: up now as the sixth seed. There's very very little 2180 01:50:47,400 --> 01:50:50,720 Speaker 1: chance that you're not gonna If you win, you'll have 2181 01:50:50,800 --> 01:50:53,040 Speaker 1: to play the one because there's very little chance of 2182 01:50:53,120 --> 01:50:56,800 Speaker 1: the seventh seed beating Kansas City. So that I think 2183 01:50:56,840 --> 01:51:04,240 Speaker 1: that's a break may end from Lauterdale right. According to 2184 01:51:04,320 --> 01:51:08,320 Speaker 1: The Finn's beat writer Omar Kelly and now deleted tweet, 2185 01:51:08,960 --> 01:51:12,160 Speaker 1: Kavin was released because he called out Flow for bad 2186 01:51:12,240 --> 01:51:15,360 Speaker 1: play calling last year and became unbearable to Flow. He 2187 01:51:15,520 --> 01:51:17,160 Speaker 1: was a leader in the locker room and able to 2188 01:51:17,280 --> 01:51:20,280 Speaker 1: rally guys behind him, and floatedn't like that. So the 2189 01:51:20,520 --> 01:51:23,160 Speaker 1: end of the season came and he was released. Omar 2190 01:51:23,280 --> 01:51:26,400 Speaker 1: deleted his tweet, stating Kaven might see it and he 2191 01:51:26,560 --> 01:51:31,719 Speaker 1: know how he knows how he gets Omar can't confirm. 2192 01:51:32,280 --> 01:51:36,560 Speaker 1: Omar also tweeted flo was dismissed because he was disagreeing 2193 01:51:36,600 --> 01:51:40,120 Speaker 1: with Greer a lot, essentially communication issues between the two. 2194 01:51:40,600 --> 01:51:43,479 Speaker 1: Omar ended with Flow is an a hole like his 2195 01:51:43,600 --> 01:51:48,160 Speaker 1: former New England boss. Wow, that's this is why I 2196 01:51:48,479 --> 01:51:52,120 Speaker 1: said what I said about whenever it's universal, there's always 2197 01:51:52,120 --> 01:51:56,080 Speaker 1: a side of the story that no one knows right, right, 2198 01:51:56,120 --> 01:52:00,040 Speaker 1: because people aren't that stupid, Like I generally think the 2199 01:52:00,120 --> 01:52:02,320 Speaker 1: worst of a lot of people, But people are not 2200 01:52:02,520 --> 01:52:05,000 Speaker 1: that stupid that every single person who's ever watched then 2201 01:52:05,040 --> 01:52:07,360 Speaker 1: NFL game thinks it was a travesty that that guy 2202 01:52:07,439 --> 01:52:09,880 Speaker 1: lost his job yesterday. There has to be something we 2203 01:52:09,960 --> 01:52:14,439 Speaker 1: don't know, right, And I'm not saying that's it. I'm 2204 01:52:14,479 --> 01:52:17,599 Speaker 1: not I don't know. I'm not vouching for Omar Kelly. 2205 01:52:18,160 --> 01:52:20,800 Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's right. I've heard some things about 2206 01:52:21,280 --> 01:52:24,559 Speaker 1: Van Noy that are a lot worse than that. Juan 2207 01:52:24,680 --> 01:52:30,240 Speaker 1: writes in he's from Stratford, Connecticut. You guys are always 2208 01:52:30,280 --> 01:52:31,960 Speaker 1: a blast to listen to it. I had a quick question. 2209 01:52:32,040 --> 01:52:34,599 Speaker 1: I'm wondering if anyone saw on Sunday's game when Mills 2210 01:52:34,680 --> 01:52:36,800 Speaker 1: got called in the PI in the end zone, j 2211 01:52:37,000 --> 01:52:39,160 Speaker 1: C came over to the area the call and started 2212 01:52:39,240 --> 01:52:42,920 Speaker 1: kicking the yellow flag. Yeah, that was should have drawn 2213 01:52:42,960 --> 01:52:44,960 Speaker 1: a flag if he had actually right, it seemed like 2214 01:52:45,080 --> 01:52:47,599 Speaker 1: Jackson was quite displeased with the officials at that point, 2215 01:52:47,640 --> 01:52:49,880 Speaker 1: and after that it seemed like Jackson and Mills got 2216 01:52:49,960 --> 01:52:52,840 Speaker 1: taken off the game, their game. Is it possible this 2217 01:52:53,000 --> 01:52:59,000 Speaker 1: means the defense is lacking maturity or discipline lately. Yes, lacking. Yeah, 2218 01:52:59,040 --> 01:53:01,639 Speaker 1: I mean I think the team itself like it's it's 2219 01:53:01,680 --> 01:53:03,639 Speaker 1: weird because I think they've shown a lot of mental 2220 01:53:03,720 --> 01:53:06,120 Speaker 1: toughness at times during the course of the season, but 2221 01:53:06,240 --> 01:53:08,439 Speaker 1: I think they have shown an alarming lack of maturity 2222 01:53:09,240 --> 01:53:11,000 Speaker 1: and and you know, I'm not sure those two things 2223 01:53:11,040 --> 01:53:14,000 Speaker 1: would necessarily be thought of as different, but I just 2224 01:53:14,160 --> 01:53:16,400 Speaker 1: I think they've had some times where they have looked 2225 01:53:16,439 --> 01:53:18,599 Speaker 1: like they've let the emotions get the better of them. 2226 01:53:18,680 --> 01:53:22,120 Speaker 1: And like the the Trent Brown reaction to the have 2227 01:53:22,240 --> 01:53:25,519 Speaker 1: the flag on Josh Allen you know that, you know, 2228 01:53:25,800 --> 01:53:29,280 Speaker 1: and to Brown's credit, he took full responsibility for that afterwards, 2229 01:53:29,320 --> 01:53:32,560 Speaker 1: unlike some other instances this year where we've continued to 2230 01:53:33,160 --> 01:53:36,639 Speaker 1: bitch about the call and you know, talk about it later. 2231 01:53:37,160 --> 01:53:38,880 Speaker 1: I think there have been some examples of that, and 2232 01:53:39,000 --> 01:53:41,599 Speaker 1: I know the play that he's talking about, Yeah, with Jackson, 2233 01:53:41,760 --> 01:53:44,040 Speaker 1: I mean, that was a tickie tack call. It was 2234 01:53:44,080 --> 01:53:46,040 Speaker 1: a terrible call. It wasn't a terrible call. It was 2235 01:53:46,080 --> 01:53:49,080 Speaker 1: a terrible call. Here's why I don't think it should 2236 01:53:49,080 --> 01:53:50,600 Speaker 1: have been a penalty, all right, It should have been 2237 01:53:50,640 --> 01:53:54,479 Speaker 1: ruled uncatchable, Okay, because Hollins was looking on the inside 2238 01:53:54,520 --> 01:53:57,479 Speaker 1: and the ball went out side. Yeah, otherwise Mills put 2239 01:53:57,520 --> 01:53:59,559 Speaker 1: two arms or no he didn't. He did, No, he didn't. 2240 01:53:59,680 --> 01:54:01,880 Speaker 1: And it's the same play that I thought was a 2241 01:54:02,000 --> 01:54:05,559 Speaker 1: terrible call. There is where I'm fair on the Dolphins. 2242 01:54:06,560 --> 01:54:08,280 Speaker 1: There was a terrible call on the Dolphins that set 2243 01:54:08,320 --> 01:54:11,240 Speaker 1: up the Patriots touchdown on a ball down there. Yeah, 2244 01:54:11,280 --> 01:54:13,519 Speaker 1: the one on Hunter Henry was not p I No, 2245 01:54:13,680 --> 01:54:16,240 Speaker 1: that was two Yeah, that was a second one. That 2246 01:54:16,400 --> 01:54:18,320 Speaker 1: was one that on a third and ten a failed 2247 01:54:18,360 --> 01:54:21,720 Speaker 1: third and ten earlier, and that wasn't That wasn't interference either, right, 2248 01:54:21,920 --> 01:54:26,040 Speaker 1: I agree, I agree um Jacking and Arbor says the 2249 01:54:26,120 --> 01:54:28,639 Speaker 1: Patriots lost to the Dolphins by three points twenty seven, 2250 01:54:28,760 --> 01:54:32,040 Speaker 1: twenty four. The last score by Miami doesn't count. Why 2251 01:54:32,080 --> 01:54:34,640 Speaker 1: does the last score by the Patriots. It was just ridiculous. No, No, 2252 01:54:35,000 --> 01:54:37,600 Speaker 1: the last score by the Patriots the Miami was ridiculous. 2253 01:54:37,640 --> 01:54:40,200 Speaker 1: But why does my Why do the Patriots garbage time 2254 01:54:40,240 --> 01:54:43,320 Speaker 1: points counting on. It wasn't garbage time. It was what 2255 01:54:43,400 --> 01:54:47,720 Speaker 1: are you talking about? They scored to get down by 2256 01:54:47,800 --> 01:54:49,520 Speaker 1: us another score and all the other team I had 2257 01:54:49,520 --> 01:54:50,640 Speaker 1: to do is get it first down and the game 2258 01:54:50,680 --> 01:54:54,920 Speaker 1: was over. The garbage time is not garbage time. The 2259 01:54:55,040 --> 01:55:00,280 Speaker 1: game was still in play play barbage time. Several plays 2260 01:55:00,360 --> 01:55:02,760 Speaker 1: during the game could have changed the outcome. But to 2261 01:55:03,000 --> 01:55:06,400 Speaker 1: stand out, if mccordy had caught the interception and guy 2262 01:55:06,520 --> 01:55:09,080 Speaker 1: had not lined up over the long snapper, the Patriots 2263 01:55:09,120 --> 01:55:11,760 Speaker 1: would have won our Or you could substitute bold and 2264 01:55:11,840 --> 01:55:14,600 Speaker 1: not roughing the sliding passes. The point is that the 2265 01:55:14,680 --> 01:55:18,240 Speaker 1: Patriots lost because of unforced errors. What can the Patriots 2266 01:55:18,320 --> 01:55:22,400 Speaker 1: do in preparation from to the bills to eliminate unforced errors? Okay, 2267 01:55:22,720 --> 01:55:25,880 Speaker 1: if we'll let's get rid of the governments time comments 2268 01:55:25,880 --> 01:55:28,720 Speaker 1: so we can talk about this seriously. Not okay, I'm 2269 01:55:29,640 --> 01:55:33,040 Speaker 1: not doing the snarky thing. Do you think Miami changed 2270 01:55:33,080 --> 01:55:36,760 Speaker 1: anything that they did defensively in the fourth quarter? Do 2271 01:55:36,920 --> 01:55:40,240 Speaker 1: I think that they changed anything that they did defensively? 2272 01:55:40,400 --> 01:55:45,000 Speaker 1: Um like in other words, like, I don't know why 2273 01:55:45,800 --> 01:55:52,120 Speaker 1: we just focus on us for everything? It was unforced errors. 2274 01:55:52,160 --> 01:55:54,080 Speaker 1: I had nothing to do with Miami took the opening 2275 01:55:54,160 --> 01:55:56,720 Speaker 1: kickoff and jammed it. Write down your throat and put 2276 01:55:56,760 --> 01:55:58,640 Speaker 1: a seven nothing lead on the board, and then three 2277 01:55:58,720 --> 01:56:01,280 Speaker 1: plays later picked off a pass and went up and 2278 01:56:01,400 --> 01:56:04,760 Speaker 1: that that's not forced, that's unforced. I guess that's an 2279 01:56:04,840 --> 01:56:08,000 Speaker 1: unforced error where Mac Jones is completely confused by Xavian 2280 01:56:08,040 --> 01:56:11,160 Speaker 1: Howard falling off his guy, dropping off another guy, and 2281 01:56:11,240 --> 01:56:13,520 Speaker 1: then picking off and running it back. So I was 2282 01:56:13,560 --> 01:56:15,680 Speaker 1: fourteen nothing. How many games do you win when that 2283 01:56:15,720 --> 01:56:19,120 Speaker 1: happen when games start that way? Okay, not many? Yeah, right, 2284 01:56:20,080 --> 01:56:24,080 Speaker 1: But it was all because the Patriots handed the game 2285 01:56:24,120 --> 01:56:27,640 Speaker 1: to Miami. But what he pointed out were unforced errors. No, 2286 01:56:28,040 --> 01:56:30,600 Speaker 1: there were things that were unforced in the game. Yes, yeah, 2287 01:56:30,760 --> 01:56:33,839 Speaker 1: just like Miami dropping a slant pass that you admitted 2288 01:56:33,840 --> 01:56:36,000 Speaker 1: would have been a big play was an unforced error 2289 01:56:36,040 --> 01:56:38,720 Speaker 1: by Miami. There were things that happened during the course. 2290 01:56:38,800 --> 01:56:41,720 Speaker 1: These teams are not perfect. But when you start off 2291 01:56:41,760 --> 01:56:45,440 Speaker 1: a game zero fourteen, eight minutes in, you're gonna lose. 2292 01:56:46,800 --> 01:56:50,520 Speaker 1: You're gonna lose. Unless you have Brady, You're gonna lose 2293 01:56:50,560 --> 01:56:52,840 Speaker 1: those games more often than not. I don't know. I 2294 01:56:52,880 --> 01:56:55,480 Speaker 1: would I would even call the pass by Mac unforced. 2295 01:56:55,880 --> 01:56:58,240 Speaker 1: He wasn't under pressure. It was just a bad pass. 2296 01:56:58,440 --> 01:57:02,880 Speaker 1: He got fooled. Yeah, Howard Howard covering somebody else and 2297 01:57:02,960 --> 01:57:04,800 Speaker 1: reacted to the play. It was you know what it 2298 01:57:04,920 --> 01:57:07,240 Speaker 1: was like Miles Bryant and the last play of the 2299 01:57:07,280 --> 01:57:10,600 Speaker 1: game in Buffalo, Bryant was covering the guy cutting across 2300 01:57:10,640 --> 01:57:13,120 Speaker 1: the field, dropped off of his guy and knocked down 2301 01:57:13,160 --> 01:57:19,920 Speaker 1: the past that was going somewhere else. Yeah, yeah, no, yeah, yeah, 2302 01:57:20,840 --> 01:57:25,000 Speaker 1: I got you. Let me know if you disagree. My 2303 01:57:26,000 --> 01:57:28,160 Speaker 1: this is like holding his tongue over there. He's like 2304 01:57:28,360 --> 01:57:33,680 Speaker 1: he looked. Yeah, no, no, like Miles Bryant. Cheeks aren't. 2305 01:57:33,720 --> 01:57:37,520 Speaker 1: Aren't like a symbol of like holding something in But 2306 01:57:37,640 --> 01:57:40,680 Speaker 1: Miles Bryant was covering Beasley coming across the field on 2307 01:57:40,800 --> 01:57:44,200 Speaker 1: that last play. Yeah, Josh now broke off to Gabriel 2308 01:57:44,280 --> 01:57:46,680 Speaker 1: Davis in the back back line of the end zone. Now, 2309 01:57:46,720 --> 01:57:50,160 Speaker 1: the throw was bad and short, but Bryant, I thought, 2310 01:57:50,320 --> 01:57:52,520 Speaker 1: came off of his guy and was able to knock 2311 01:57:52,560 --> 01:57:55,360 Speaker 1: the past time. Yeah, and Matt telegraphed it and gave 2312 01:57:55,440 --> 01:57:57,400 Speaker 1: the guy that wasn't covering him chance to come over 2313 01:57:57,520 --> 01:57:59,000 Speaker 1: and make the plays. Sure, maybe, I mean, if you 2314 01:57:59,040 --> 01:58:00,440 Speaker 1: want to buoy him it on. Mac you're a little 2315 01:58:00,480 --> 01:58:02,000 Speaker 1: I mean, we all know what you feel about Mac 2316 01:58:02,080 --> 01:58:07,200 Speaker 1: Man mad. I think you have the right. Yeah, I 2317 01:58:07,240 --> 01:58:10,000 Speaker 1: don't think Max's that good. So again, I mean that's 2318 01:58:10,040 --> 01:58:15,120 Speaker 1: with the philosophical differences. Lie h Josh one more email 2319 01:58:15,240 --> 01:58:17,720 Speaker 1: Josh and Hatfield Mass. I think the Patriots got the 2320 01:58:17,880 --> 01:58:21,240 Speaker 1: optimum time for a playoff game masterclass right there. If 2321 01:58:21,280 --> 01:58:23,600 Speaker 1: there's a team you can sacrifice the day to play, 2322 01:58:23,760 --> 01:58:26,360 Speaker 1: it's against division opponent, and if they pull out a win, 2323 01:58:26,880 --> 01:58:29,920 Speaker 1: they hopefully get an extra data prepare random thought. I 2324 01:58:30,040 --> 01:58:32,280 Speaker 1: look forward to the show every day. You guys are 2325 01:58:32,360 --> 01:58:35,040 Speaker 1: the best. I would I mean, I don't know what's 2326 01:58:35,040 --> 01:58:37,480 Speaker 1: going to happen, but my assumption would be they would 2327 01:58:37,480 --> 01:58:40,640 Speaker 1: play on Saturday, go to Tennessee. Why would they intentionally 2328 01:58:40,720 --> 01:58:44,400 Speaker 1: give someone a short week, you know, coming back, you know, 2329 01:58:44,480 --> 01:58:47,920 Speaker 1: coming coming around again the next time, whereas the Patriots 2330 01:58:47,920 --> 01:58:50,760 Speaker 1: would be on regular rest on playing Saturday to Satya. 2331 01:58:51,120 --> 01:58:54,320 Speaker 1: That would be my guess. But I mean, don't they 2332 01:58:54,360 --> 01:58:57,000 Speaker 1: like to put the number one seeds in those prime times? Laws? Usually? Yeah, 2333 01:58:57,480 --> 01:58:59,440 Speaker 1: but then the Titans buy will be one day short, 2334 01:59:00,160 --> 01:59:02,080 Speaker 1: oh yeah, and they can complain about that. Oh my God, 2335 01:59:02,080 --> 01:59:04,800 Speaker 1: can you imagine the puddles they'll turn into another by 2336 01:59:04,880 --> 01:59:07,520 Speaker 1: the way, another lack of maturity. Yeah, And I wanted 2337 01:59:07,520 --> 01:59:09,280 Speaker 1: to bring that up at the bye because, you know, 2338 01:59:09,520 --> 01:59:11,600 Speaker 1: and I think that that like little like we're feeling 2339 01:59:11,640 --> 01:59:13,720 Speaker 1: sorry for ourselves and everyone kind of fell over ourselves 2340 01:59:13,760 --> 01:59:15,200 Speaker 1: trying to analyze it. But I mean, I do think 2341 01:59:15,240 --> 01:59:17,560 Speaker 1: that's another example of you come off a big win 2342 01:59:17,640 --> 01:59:20,800 Speaker 1: over Buffalo and everybody's like we're back and Bill genius 2343 01:59:20,880 --> 01:59:23,080 Speaker 1: coaching plan and all that, and I mean, I think 2344 01:59:23,120 --> 01:59:24,640 Speaker 1: that that was a little bit of a moment in 2345 01:59:24,720 --> 01:59:27,400 Speaker 1: there where they maybe bought into the hype a little 2346 01:59:27,440 --> 01:59:30,280 Speaker 1: bit and no doubt, you know, took their foot off 2347 01:59:30,320 --> 01:59:34,600 Speaker 1: the gas. Do salt? All Right, that's gonna be it 2348 01:59:34,680 --> 01:59:38,240 Speaker 1: for this edition of Patriots Unfiltered.
