That's a clutch drive. Tom 20 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 3: Brady goes down the field and says, now you just 21 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 3: can leave seventies games over again.

It is Tuesday here 31 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 6: at Jillette Stadium. The gang's all here. It's Deuce, Evan, Paul, Me, 32 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 6: Matt and Napooth. We're talking Patriots. We're getting closer to 33 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 6: that big day against the Raiders a week from this 34 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:34,960 Speaker 6: coming Sunday. 35 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 7: So Max Crossby, Yeah, it's good. 36 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 2: Crossby, and thankfully not Trey Hendrickson as well. Here he's 37 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 2: getting close. But anyway, I do digress. Today is the 38 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 2: deadline for cut day, so that's at four o'clock. You 39 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 2: know a lot of reports coming out around the league 40 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 2: teams cutting players early. This team made an announcement was 41 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 2: a Friday about a handful of players. 42 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 4: Fourteen of them and who were they? 43 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 3: Well, the big one for me, I get them for 44 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:11,239 Speaker 3: the whole place. 45 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 2: Okay, just read it. 46 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 4: It's a long list. 47 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 8: Yeah. 48 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 7: Yeah. 49 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 3: The group on Friday was Jaheem Bell, Micah Bernard, Philip. 50 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,679 Speaker 7: Is It bleedy glitty blitty blitty. 51 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 3: Isaiah Bolden, Zay Carle, Fotheringham, Phil Lutz, R. J. Moten, 52 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 3: Jordan Polk, Tyrese Robinson, city So, Shane Watts, Ben Wooldridge, 53 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 3: and Kyle Pico and Monty Ricey. That was the group 54 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 3: that was let go on Friday. Now there have been 55 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 3: some reports of guys that have been let go today. 56 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 3: They have been informed that they will be getting released, 57 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 3: but we have no official word in any of those. 58 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 2: We won't touch those yet. They'll be an official release 59 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 2: coming out from the Patriots somewhere around for thereafter. I 60 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 2: remember back in the day, and uh not the last regime, 61 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,919 Speaker 2: but the regime before that, four o'clock would roll around 62 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 2: and it'd be nothing. 63 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 3: Crickets probably be eleven mill of lights deep. 64 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 2: I'd be lucky if by eight o'clock that night we'd 65 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 2: have a release. Yeah. I'm guessing with this regime it'll 66 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 2: be pretty prompted. 67 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, I hope. 68 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 9: So, I mean, I don't think there's a ton of 69 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 9: really hard decisions. I think, you know, some guys are 70 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 9: on the bubble, but overall, I think we know who 71 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 9: the team's going to be. Who are they going to 72 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 9: be the guys that contribute. Heard from Mike Rabel yesterday 73 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 9: saying guys are going to rotate, and I think that's 74 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 9: the case with a lot of teams right now early 75 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 9: on in the season that you're trying to look at 76 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 9: the starters. And I do think along the offensive line 77 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 9: you need to have starters, you need to have kind 78 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 9: of your guys, But defensive front, those rotation guys, even 79 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 9: probably some of the cornerback stuff. Is Christian Zalez ready 80 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 9: to go wire to wire week one or is there 81 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 9: a little bit of a rotation without Austin and you know, 82 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 9: break up his snaps a little bit. 83 00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 2: Yep. I do want to talk about the last game 84 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 2: against the Giants, not so much the game itself, but 85 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 2: a lot of Paul shows are saying that what we 86 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 2: learned from that game is that the Patriots have a 87 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 2: big depth problem. And I get it. You know, we've 88 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:19,039 Speaker 2: talked about depth on especially certain areas, and this team 89 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 2: could be an issue going into this season. But you know, 90 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 2: the alarm bells that went off because you know, the Giants' 91 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 2: third stringers killed the Patriots third stringers. These are guys 92 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 2: on both teams that aren't going to be playing. Most 93 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 2: of them most of there are some, but most of 94 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 2: you know, most of them are going to be playing. 95 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,799 Speaker 2: And when in the other games when the Patriots second 96 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 2: stringers were out there, guys more likely to make the team, 97 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 2: they didn't do so badly. You know, that's not to 98 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 2: say that depth isn't an issue, but I don't know 99 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 2: if it warranted, you know, the the alarm bells that 100 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 2: went off on. 101 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 9: Some I think it's just a function of a new 102 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 9: regime coming in and they certainly extended themselves to sign 103 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 9: a number of high quality free agents that have come 104 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 9: in here and are clearly taking over significant roles. Williams, 105 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 9: Robert Splaine, just a couple off the top of my head. 106 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 9: Stefan digs of course. But I think it's hard to 107 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,119 Speaker 9: replace your whole team and to really have quality depth 108 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 9: in year one that you know fits what you're trying 109 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 9: to do. So I'd much rather be looking at it 110 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 9: this year this way than we did last year. 111 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 7: When you know, I think Paul Rightley pointed. 112 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 9: Out that they resigned a lot of their guys, But 113 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 9: you know, Michael and when you Kyle Dugger, I mean, 114 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 9: now we look. 115 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 7: At those guys maybe through a slightly different light. 116 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 9: But at the same time, I think those guys were 117 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 9: more they didn't have the stars they signed Christian Barmore, 118 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 9: so I'll give him credit for that one last year. 119 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 7: He certainly seems like a star. 120 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 9: But I look at this as you're going to return 121 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 9: most of this roster, your contributors next year as well, 122 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 9: So you're looking at a two year window with most 123 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 9: of these guys definitely a needed edge. 124 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 7: I would sell it which I might. 125 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 2: Be starters this year, might be bumped down next year 126 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 2: when you break. 127 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 9: Right, absolutely, and then you look at some of the 128 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 9: guys maybe that are that are holdovers a little bit 129 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:58,840 Speaker 9: from the previous regime. I mean, we've had a little 130 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 9: bit of a shake up at safety and Craig Woodson 131 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 9: is probably there to stay, but you know, what's that 132 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 9: going to look like two three years down the road. 133 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 7: So I would just watch next year for their ability. 134 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 9: To you know, we don't have to totally chase everything, 135 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 9: but we can be selective. We can find some spots 136 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 9: to upgrade, and we can also draft and sign guys 137 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 9: that are going to be our kinds of players that 138 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 9: provide that quality depth. So when you get into the 139 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 9: third preseason game and those guys play, maybe you see 140 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 9: some more guys with a little more promise. Last example 141 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 9: I just point out is Tommy DeVito and we said, 142 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 9: we joked at the end of the pregame show, like 143 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,919 Speaker 9: or the postgame show. That's a cool four string quarterback 144 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 9: who looks like he can play a little bit, you know. 145 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,479 Speaker 9: Could that be something the Patriots look at quarterback position 146 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,359 Speaker 9: as bringing in a third guy now that I mean, that's. 147 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 2: One area where I think I would like, you know, 148 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:46,359 Speaker 2: I was a little bit surprised that Wooldridge was, you know, 149 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 2: because he's your third guy. It's just Dobbs right now 150 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 2: is the other quarterback. So I think they could use 151 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 2: an upgrade there, whether it's bringing in a third guy 152 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 2: or even someone to replace Dobbs. This is the number 153 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 2: two with who's available. Bailey Zappy reportedly is available. I 154 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 2: think I think he'd be an upgrade over Dobbs. Honestly, yeah, 155 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 2: I don't. 156 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 7: I don't know if anybody out there is really gonna go. 157 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 4: What am I going to say? 158 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 3: What can I What can I do? Some people you've 159 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 3: exasperated young Evan. 160 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 2: Okay, what's the problem. 161 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 4: No, there's no problem. 162 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: This is a little bit of a problem. 163 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 4: Come on, No, this is not one that I need 164 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 4: to battle. I don't care that much about it. 165 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 2: You don't care about yeah, and I get no. No, 166 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 2: I just mean the Bailey's down right. 167 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 3: But yeah, I do agree that your point. 168 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 4: I know, I do agree that it's a it's in need. 169 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 4: I do agree that there's depth issues at quarterback right now. 170 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 4: I just don't know if Bailey Zappi is the answer. 171 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 4: That's all. 172 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 2: Well, I'm just yeah. 173 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 3: Your point is to find the answer. But your point 174 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 3: is a good one. I think that they could do 175 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 3: better at backup quarterback. 176 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 4: I I agree. 177 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 3: I mean, for at least some competent it has just 178 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 3: been really inconsistent throughout the sum I think he's inaccurate. 179 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 2: And I think what I saw from just in that 180 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 2: last game from de Veto, I saw decisive this inaccuracy. 181 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 4: And it's a similar offense. So he's running with Brian Dables, 182 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 4: so he's going to have some familiarity with what they're doing. 183 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 4: But I think Dousa hit the nail on the head 184 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 4: with the roster depth. I think all of us had 185 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 4: concerns about roster depth even before this last preseason game. 186 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 4: I think we've talked about it a lot on our shows, 187 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 4: about the fact that, yeah, they turned over the top 188 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 4: of the roster and they look better in terms of 189 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 4: their frontline players than what they've had in recent years. 190 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 4: But it's going to take more than one offseason to 191 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 4: completely flip the fifty three. And guys like Kyle Duggar, 192 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 4: Anthony Jennings, Jilani Tavai, they might not be in your 193 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 4: long term plans, but it might be a little bit 194 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 4: premature to move on from those players this season because 195 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 4: they are NFL players. So if you start gutting the 196 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 4: roster of guys that aren't scheme fits for what they're doing, 197 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 4: especially on defense, and then you're really turning it over 198 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 4: to depth players that frankly, I don't know our NFL players. 199 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 4: At least I know that if they have a rash 200 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 4: of injuries at safety, Kyle Dugger went right, is a 201 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 4: starting caliber safety in the NFL. At least I know 202 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 4: Anthony Jennings can play the role, can play the position 203 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 4: if they need to have him in there. So I'd 204 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 4: rather them hold their water a little bit on doing 205 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 4: that versus let's flip the entire roster in one offseason 206 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 4: and go into the year with a lot of unknown 207 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:27,319 Speaker 4: I agree. 208 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 2: I agree with that. I mean, if now depth is 209 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 2: Anthony Jennings and to buy and dother I know they 210 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 2: were a little bit overpriced to be but that's different. 211 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 2: But that's pretty. 212 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 3: Good I would. Yeah, but that's a different argument, and 213 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 3: I get your point. I don't think that the game 214 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 3: had anything to do with depth, like showing your lack 215 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 3: of depth. I think that where I agree with I 216 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 3: was gonna say where I agree with Fred one thousand 217 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 3: percent is that's somehow now to me that it happened 218 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 3: the week before it happened in the Minnesota game, when 219 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 3: the starters didn't do all that well against Minnesota's backups. 220 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 3: That's when this depth thing started to sort of you know, 221 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 3: everybody somehow looked at the roster and said, huh, they're 222 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 3: a little thin at that spot, which the three of 223 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 3: us have been talking about all off season. You know, 224 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 3: the one big concern we all had is, yeah, they've 225 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 3: upgraded some spots, but it's really hard to do it 226 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 3: all at once. They did a really nice job I 227 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 3: think of increasing the overall talent level, but it's nowhere 228 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 3: near where it needs to be. And certainly if they 229 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 3: lose a gonzo, you see the impact that it has 230 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 3: when you take him out for the whole summer. If 231 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 3: you lose a guy here or there, you don't have 232 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 3: a lot of depth. I didn't need the game against 233 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 3: the Giants Scrubs to tell me that they don't have 234 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 3: a ton of depth. But Fred's right, that sort of 235 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 3: sounded some kind of an alarm. 236 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, it's because people were predicting them to 237 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 4: win double digit. 238 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 3: Games, right, It's like eleven wins or busts, and it's like, 239 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 3: are you looking what they have? Like, I don't know. 240 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 3: I guess I just didn't see that kind of overall 241 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 3: talent level. But the other part of this is what 242 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 3: you guys are talking about with you know, Yeah, I'd 243 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 3: be fine if you have all these guys, But I'm 244 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 3: not sure that like Dugger and Keyon White and like TVAI, 245 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 3: Like is Christian Ellis better than Jelanie to Vais Craig 246 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 3: Woodson better than Kyle Duger? Is Jalen Hawkins better than 247 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 3: Jabrill Peppers? 248 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 2: Like? 249 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 3: So you can say that now you have depth, but 250 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 3: I'm not sure that the guys that you're replacing those 251 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 3: guys with are better than the guys they're replacing. But 252 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,200 Speaker 3: that's been my big mantra all off season is I'm 253 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:39,839 Speaker 3: really excited about bringing in Milton Williams of Robert splane A, 254 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 3: Carlton Davis, because I think those guys are all better 255 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 3: than the guys they replaced. If they're going to try 256 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 3: to like do this all at once and move on 257 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 3: from let's face it, a contract in Kyle Douglas's case 258 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 3: that they probably don't love, I don't think that's better 259 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:55,079 Speaker 3: for you in the short term. 260 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it might be. 261 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 3: Better off in the long term, but right now, I 262 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 3: don't think the guys that are playing safety is as 263 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 3: Peppers and Dugger. 264 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 4: This happens all the time, though, when there's a coaching 265 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 4: staff and a regime change and now they were running 266 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 4: a different defense and Kyle Dugger doesn't fit this defense, 267 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 4: but he fit the last defense, and he signed an 268 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,079 Speaker 4: extension with the last regime. And this is Tailor's old 269 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 4: as time in the NFL. But I still I think 270 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 4: we're on the same page that if they had to 271 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 4: play Kyle Dugger, I still feel better about that being 272 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 4: the case and having to play you know, some of 273 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 4: the other guys that they've had in here at that position. 274 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,680 Speaker 4: So maybe you feel. 275 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 3: It was good about having to play Jalen Hawkins and 276 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 3: Craig Woodson. 277 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 4: Well, but I hear you, but they're also asking them 278 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 4: to do different things. 279 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I Douger's contract wasn't what it was. I don't 280 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 3: think this would be such a huge problem scheme schematically, 281 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 3: that's that's I just think they're looking to get out 282 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 3: of that contract, which is fine. I think that's like, 283 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 3: like Evan just said, it's a taiale as old as time. 284 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 3: Guys want their own their own guys. He signed that 285 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 3: contract under the previous regime. Sure, I don't think that 286 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 3: Mike Vrabel is wrong if he if he thinks like 287 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 3: that again, I'll go back to my shows. I won't 288 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,679 Speaker 3: beat them up for something that hasn't happened yet. But 289 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 3: if they're thinking like that, I totally understand that that's 290 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 3: a very normal reaction. It's what I wished happened last year, right, 291 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 3: you know, figure out the guys that you like and 292 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,439 Speaker 3: want to move on with and then let the other 293 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,680 Speaker 3: guys go. Instead, they just re upped everybody, and I 294 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 3: think that's part of the reason why you're in this situation. 295 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 3: And the other reason that you're in this situation is 296 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 3: the obvious one that Mike always hammers home. When you're 297 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 3: draft like you've drafted, there's your depth. You don't have 298 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,199 Speaker 3: any depth. You don't have frontline players, so you had 299 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 3: to bring in free agents to replace guys that weren't 300 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 3: good enough, and you have no depth behind them because 301 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 3: your draft picks. We'll see about this draft class. We 302 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:45,839 Speaker 3: said everything about this draft class. Right now, everything looks great. 303 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 3: You know, Will Campbell's going to start at left tackle 304 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 3: and Jared Wilson has a very good chance to start 305 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 3: at left guard. If they're not any good, then it's 306 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 3: going to be like it was last year when everybody said, 307 00:13:56,720 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 3: well Jaalen Polk start in day one. But then at 308 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 3: the end of the year you looked at that draft 309 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 3: class a lot differently than you did at the beginning 310 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 3: of the year. 311 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, I just where the injury is going 312 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 9: to happen this year. That's the that's the big unknown, 313 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 9: because in a couple of select spots. 314 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 7: You're you're you're in trouble pretty quick. 315 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 1: I just go way back. 316 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 2: I think we've been saying that for the last five years. Yeah, 317 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,560 Speaker 2: and I think it's the Patriots have injuries, and. 318 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 7: It's probably true. 319 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 3: I mean, I just think I'm definitely true. 320 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 9: Reaching for a random example, but going back to two 321 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 9: thousand and four, where you know, thy Log goes down, 322 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 9: but you have at a Sante Samuel kind of waiting 323 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 9: in the wings, and there aren't a lot of positions 324 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 9: on the roster right now, where do you say, like, 325 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 9: maybe I could make an argument of saying, hey, if 326 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 9: one of the defensive linemen goes down, maybe you know, 327 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 9: maybe a rookie like a farmer, like Farmer gets a chance. 328 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 9: Like that's one spot, but there aren't a lot of 329 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 9: other ones, especially like the. 330 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 3: Tackling spot, those interior defensive linemen. Like I guess I 331 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 3: was thinking we were going to see a little bit 332 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 3: more and I haven't seen. 333 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 7: I haven't seen much out of Farmer or farms. 334 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, guys, right now, but you have Williams far more 335 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 4: top and Tongo I think has had a nice summer 336 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 4: and looks a little bit surprising. And then you know 337 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 4: you see Keon White's kind of like the hybrid guy 338 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 4: that can move around and do different things. So I 339 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 4: still feel like they're okay on the defensive front, especially 340 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 4: with Chase on playing as well as he has all summer. 341 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 4: But I just they're asking these safeties to do a 342 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 4: lot of different things than what they were before. 343 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 2: Or well. 344 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, so the old defense, they were too gapping up front, 345 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 4: so guys were just kind of holding the wall and 346 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 4: you know, eating blocks and things like that. So the 347 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 4: second level of the defense where the playmakers, the linebackers 348 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 4: in the safeties, the hybrid safeties are the guys that 349 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:43,200 Speaker 4: were supposed to come up and make plays, Whereas now 350 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 4: the defensive line is teeing off and they're getting up 351 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 4: the field, so they're not necessarily asking the second and 352 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 4: third level of the defense to make as many tackles 353 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 4: or many splash plays as they were before. So now 354 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 4: it's more about covering space. It's about being in space, 355 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 4: cover more ground sideline to sideline, but also covering in 356 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 4: the back end in terms of past game stuff, So 357 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 4: the safeties are gonna be more in like deep zones 358 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 4: and like ranging over the top and like doing that 359 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 4: sort of thing, versus like Kyle Duggar coming up and 360 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 4: trying to fill the B gap, you know, like he 361 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 4: would in the old defense. So there's just a lot 362 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 4: of different moving parts in terms of how they what 363 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 4: they're asking. So even though I agree with Paul just 364 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 4: in a game of Madden, like Kyle Duggar probably has 365 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 4: a higher rating than Craig Woodson or Jalen Hawkins, but 366 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 4: in this scheme, their skill set might be better than 367 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 4: Kyle Duggar's for the type of defense that they want 368 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 4: to run. If they're gonna play, oh those guys deep, 369 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 4: it's gonna be different. 370 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 2: It makes sense like if you were going back in 371 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 2: the draft and drafting, you wouldn't draft Doug or for 372 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 2: this system, right, you know, but for the old system 373 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 2: where you want someone to get down close to the line, 374 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 2: And he made sense, I that could be possible. 375 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, see how it comes together? 376 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 9: I mean, I still think these things are very fluid, 377 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 9: and as we get really going into the nitty gritty 378 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 9: of the season, you'll see what they have planned for 379 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 9: specific roles, and you know, how does it all come 380 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,879 Speaker 9: together on a week to week basis. Certainly things have 381 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 9: been interesting to watch, especially the last couple of days 382 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 9: of practice that were not allowed to report on. But 383 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 9: they're shifting into that regular season mode and you're you're 384 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 9: getting a little bit more clarity of how they're going 385 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 9: to see things. But I would expect a lot of 386 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,160 Speaker 9: rotation across both sides of the ball. 387 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,440 Speaker 2: Well Rabel said that the other day, especially on defense 388 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:30,439 Speaker 2: up front. He said, you know, there's gonna be a 389 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 2: lot of guys getting reps and probably evenly distributed, and. 390 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 4: They want to play fast like they want to play. 391 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,399 Speaker 4: If you want to be aggressive, that's it. 392 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 2: That's why Milton Williams didn't have a lot of reps 393 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 2: as much as we think you might get here. Yeah, 394 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:50,879 Speaker 2: all right, so we've got that on the table. Later 395 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:56,640 Speaker 2: in the show. Gary Myers just came out with this book, 396 00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:01,679 Speaker 2: it's The Brady Belichick Debate, and we're going to be 397 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 2: talking to him in the one o'clock hour. He's going 398 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,640 Speaker 2: to call in, so we'll talk about the book. I've 399 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 2: read it, Paul has read it. I've learned a couple 400 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 2: of things that I don't think I knew. Album. We'll 401 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,880 Speaker 2: talk about that when he's on the show. Okay, yeah, good, 402 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 2: So look forward to that. 403 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 7: Get to the bottom of it. 404 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, finally, what else do we got kind of settled? 405 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 9: Like I was going to say practice the last couple 406 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 9: of days, I just thought, was, you know, interesting, And 407 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 9: to Paul's. 408 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 2: Have you noticed a change in practice since you know, 409 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 2: training camp and the public portion of training camp has ended. 410 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 9: A little bit A little bit, I mean, it's a 411 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 9: little more fun that they're actually doing drills on the 412 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 9: field right in front of us now, whereas during training 413 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 9: camp they're always like it feels like as far away 414 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:47,360 Speaker 9: as possible. But you know, it's just funny because we're 415 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 9: watching practice, and I think you did it on our 416 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,120 Speaker 9: first run of the show. We talked about we don't 417 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 9: really know like where we're at right now between the 418 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 9: last preseason game and there's just this void in between 419 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 9: now in the first. 420 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 7: Regular season game. 421 00:18:58,040 --> 00:18:59,680 Speaker 9: It's long, but all of a sudden, in the middle 422 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,199 Speaker 9: of practice, like you see very able go over and 423 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 9: like this isn't it. We're not reporting any of this stuff, guys, 424 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 9: So so not like game plan all right, they're running 425 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,399 Speaker 9: the Raiders defense right now, but they're definitely still getting 426 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 9: work in and as they've made cuts, you've seen the 427 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 9: team start to come together and get whittled down a 428 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:18,679 Speaker 9: little bit. So definitely some interesting things. I mean, I 429 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:20,960 Speaker 9: would without saying anything. I just think Drake's Drakes looked 430 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 9: pretty good the last couple of days. And you know, 431 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 9: that's you know, what everybody wants to know, and that's 432 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 9: the big topic because you're going into the season. But 433 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 9: I thought he's had, you know, solid, a couple of 434 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 9: days of practice and we'll see if the mount of 435 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,920 Speaker 9: activity got this summer was enough for him to start 436 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 9: fast and I mean come out of the gates. 437 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 2: So obvious that I think, at least on this show, 438 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 2: I don't think we've talked about it as much as 439 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 2: other shows, But it really does come down to Drake May, 440 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 2: doesn't it, And it's all about his development. 441 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:47,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, if you want to do one of those 442 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 3: sort of worse to first meteoric rise, you can't do 443 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 3: that unless the quarterback play is at a much much 444 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 3: higher level. And that's how And I know it's it's 445 00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 3: always case by case, but just look at all the 446 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,439 Speaker 3: teams that you can think of that did that, and 447 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,399 Speaker 3: it almost always involves a guy either coming into the 448 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 3: program and playing at a higher level or just making 449 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,159 Speaker 3: a huge leap from one year to the next, you know, 450 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 3: like Stroud and Daniels. There's a million, million examples, but 451 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 3: those are the two most recent that come to mind. 452 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely, so all eyes are going to be on 453 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:21,919 Speaker 2: him every game. 454 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 9: Every press comes with the position. I mean, he spoke 455 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 9: yesterday and I think he's saying all the right things. 456 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 9: I think he gets it, and it's I just everybody 457 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 9: needs to realize this is gonna be a process, you know, 458 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,439 Speaker 9: like it's not gonna like we're not coming out of 459 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 9: the gate week one. 460 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 7: It'll give him a little bit of leeway. 461 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 2: And I know how this show is predicting thirteen wins 462 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 2: even eleven. You know, like my I've been steadfast and 463 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 2: I'm staying I'm staying with it. Flora is six, Ceiling 464 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,719 Speaker 2: is ten. That's that's what I've been saying, and I 465 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 2: haven't seen anything yet to make me change that. Now 466 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 2: that's a pretty wide gap, and I think they're probably 467 00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 2: going to end up somewhere in the middle, somewhere around eight. 468 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 2: But if they do that, I'll be happy. Something had 469 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 2: to have gone right compared to last year for them 470 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,679 Speaker 2: to get to AID and I'll be okay with that. 471 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 2: If it's more than that, great, But again, we're not 472 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 2: just one year. We're two years in a row. For 473 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 2: win team. You know, it's gonna take some time, folks, 474 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 2: it really is. 475 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 4: I just wonder if they can win enough games and 476 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:30,719 Speaker 4: show enough promise to make themselves more desirable for some 477 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 4: of the build up programs. 478 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 7: I feel like there's a program if Drake makes. 479 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 2: Playing well, okay, you're going to see the future. 480 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 4: Because it is it has been frustrated in the last 481 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 4: couple of years, and it does seem like they do 482 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 4: want to pay a wide receiver to come here to 483 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 4: play with Drake May, but it doesn't feel like any 484 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 4: of the wide receivers want to take their money. So 485 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,200 Speaker 4: can you change that narrative? Can you change that perception 486 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 4: of the team so that next offseason, if they offer 487 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 4: Chris Godwin type player thirty thirty five million dollars, he 488 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,959 Speaker 4: actually takes it of going back to Tampa Bay, or 489 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,119 Speaker 4: Brandon Ayuk says don't trade for me, or Calvin Ridley 490 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 4: goes to Tennessee instead of coming here, like, it would 491 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 4: be nice to at least be able to change that 492 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:10,919 Speaker 4: perception a little bit. 493 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 3: Yep, yeah, yeah, And that's why you just sort of 494 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 3: have to see it. But I would agree with Fred 495 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 3: on the surface, you know, if they were to win 496 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:20,439 Speaker 3: eight games, it would be hard to believe for me 497 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 3: that that wasn't progress, that wasn't a sign of progress. 498 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,639 Speaker 3: Now you're right, Like, you might look at it and 499 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,879 Speaker 3: maybe they win a couple of ugly games against teams 500 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,640 Speaker 3: that are not very good and Drake may doesn't look 501 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 3: great in winning them, and then you're like, they won, 502 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 3: but you might change your mind, you know, like the 503 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 3: twenty one, you know, ten and seven season, and you know, 504 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,199 Speaker 3: they went to the playoffs and it was hard not 505 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 3: to be excited with a rookie quarterback. But somehow Cranky 506 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 3: Paul wasn't overly excited at the time because of the 507 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 3: way they won some of those games, you know, taking 508 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 3: advantage of massive injuries to a couple of teams and 509 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,119 Speaker 3: winning a three to nothing game in ridiculous conditions, Like 510 00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 3: it just didn't really seem like it was something that 511 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 3: was sustainable to me, and it wasn't. Yeah, so you 512 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,199 Speaker 3: might see that and you might look at it, you know, 513 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 3: and say, well, I don't feel as good about the 514 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 3: eight wins as I thought I would feel, but I would. 515 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 4: Twenty two season like they were eight and nine and 516 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 4: twenty twenty two. And if you if you finished this 517 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 4: year eight and nine, you'd feel good. But that season 518 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 4: was the offense was already kind of falling apart at 519 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 4: that point, and it did not look like it was 520 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 4: headed in a good direction. So you can go eight 521 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,120 Speaker 4: and nine in this league and still not feel great 522 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 4: about your team. 523 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think if Rable all of a sudden decides 524 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 2: to make a defensive coordinator, offensive coordinator and all that stuff, 525 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 2: like there were conditions there. 526 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 3: Two games worse than you were the previous year, so 527 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:46,199 Speaker 3: you won. 528 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:49,640 Speaker 4: Some some bad football games that year in twenty twenty two, 529 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 4: like just rock fights. 530 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 9: I think though, with the inevitable injuries that happened, it 531 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 9: would really reflect well on this team if let's just 532 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 9: say no random example, like the right tackle goes down 533 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 9: and you need to have one of these youngsters get 534 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 9: in and play and look confident, or if you need 535 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 9: to turn to maybe a player like I mean we 536 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,120 Speaker 9: keep saying Toby but Jennings, like you have to turn 537 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,439 Speaker 9: to somebody who maybe you don't think ever quite got it, 538 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 9: but now he looks like he's playing well in this 539 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:15,359 Speaker 9: system or playing well for these coaches. 540 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 7: You know, those little things. 541 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 9: I think what might be the details you have to 542 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 9: look for to get the full picture of the season, 543 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 9: where you know, yeah, they had some injuries, but man 544 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 9: Vederian Lowe had to fill in for Will Campbell for 545 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 9: two days and it wasn't a disaster like it was 546 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:28,439 Speaker 9: last year. 547 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 7: And like those things, I. 548 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 9: Think little signs that they're building a program here. I 549 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 9: think that's to me what Evan's kind of getting at, 550 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 9: that there's a program here, there's a sense of who 551 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:38,920 Speaker 9: this team's identity is and do you want to come 552 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:40,400 Speaker 9: be a part of it. I felt that way about 553 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 9: Mike Frabele and Tennessee. He kind of had an identity there. 554 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 9: You knew what you were going to have to deal with. 555 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,359 Speaker 9: Part of it was Derreck Henry, of course, but you know, 556 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,399 Speaker 9: at the same time, those players emerge when you have 557 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 9: a good situation, and those become your stars. 558 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 2: That we I mean, there's one thing that we've learned, 559 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 2: and I say learn, but one thing that's been cemented 560 00:24:56,560 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 2: in the last few weeks is that they've just failed 561 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 2: in the drafting the last few years. And one of 562 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 2: the reasons we're in the situation we're in now is 563 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 2: because of that. And when you think about it, Drake 564 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 2: May being you know, the sole survivor of last last 565 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 2: year's draft, you know, possible. 566 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean there's a couple other guys still around, right. 567 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:21,679 Speaker 9: But Marcello style might have been in the main. I mean, 568 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:23,880 Speaker 9: then they're not the star players that they needed. And 569 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 9: I mean every one of these draft misses from going 570 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 9: back to whatever you want to do eighteen, I mean, 571 00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 9: every time you have one of these drafts where you 572 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,440 Speaker 9: don't pull anything, it's another year you're going to pay 573 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:34,200 Speaker 9: for it down the road. 574 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 2: And you don't have to have stars from every draft, 575 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 2: but you need contributors two, you know, three, maybe four 576 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 2: at the high end, contributors from every draft, and that 577 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 2: builds your foundation. Those are your guys that you're you're 578 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:50,639 Speaker 2: building around, and then you're adding pieces through free agency 579 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 2: and subsequent drafts. You have to do that. 580 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 4: But I feel like what Deuce was saying about the program, 581 00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 4: like it's only half the battle to identify the talent 582 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 4: in the draft. The other half of the battles developing 583 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,360 Speaker 4: the talent and then being scheme fits and like all 584 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 4: that good stuff. So like you can go out there 585 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 4: and you can think that Jalen Polk is a really 586 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 4: good college player and he's a You scout him and 587 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:13,879 Speaker 4: you think he's gonna be a good NFL pro, but 588 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 4: then he gets to the pros and he's in an 589 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,239 Speaker 4: offense that doesn't really suit him, or he's in an 590 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 4: offense that doesn't have great coaching or great foundation to 591 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 4: it or anything, and that can derail a young player's career, 592 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,119 Speaker 4: as it has in a lot of ways for Polk. 593 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:28,399 Speaker 4: So I'm not saying that Polk would have been a 594 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:31,400 Speaker 4: star if he was in a better situation, But it's 595 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 4: kind of hard to say, like was it the chicken 596 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:36,399 Speaker 4: or was it the egg with the twenty twenty four draft, 597 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,199 Speaker 4: because everything was in such a state of flux with 598 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 4: the entire program that I just don't know if any 599 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,360 Speaker 4: of those guys really stood a chance. And I think 600 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 4: Drake May is so talented that he's kind of full 601 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 4: proof of this, Like he kind of just overcame it. 602 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 4: But you're not gonna if you're like a third or 603 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,920 Speaker 4: fourth round pick, you're not going to overcome this kind 604 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 4: of coaching turnover and all this different stuff. So hopefully 605 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 4: like they get back to a place with Vrabel and 606 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 4: this staff where they can develop talent again. 607 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good point. You can't undervalue coaching in 608 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:14,920 Speaker 2: the NFL like other sports. It's not half as important 609 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,360 Speaker 2: as football. That's my opinion. 610 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 4: There's just so many examples of guys that we all 611 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 4: thought were going to be good coming out of college 612 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 4: and it just doesn't work for whatever reason. And a 613 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 4: lot of the times it's talent, but a lot of 614 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 4: the times it's also situation and the coaching that he 615 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,359 Speaker 4: had and the scheme he was in and it just 616 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:36,199 Speaker 4: doesn't click for him at this level. So you know, 617 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,440 Speaker 4: look at Chaison, like if Chaison has a good year 618 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,120 Speaker 4: with the Patriots, Like that's a former first round pick 619 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 4: that's kind of had some bad luck along the way 620 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 4: here with coaching changes and things like that. So maybe 621 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,680 Speaker 4: it's just as simple for him as he's in the 622 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 4: right place at the right time now and he realizes that. 623 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 9: I found myself thinking a lot about last year's class 624 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 9: and just a lot of the same scouts and regime 625 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 9: that pick those players are still here. And I'm not 626 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 9: trying to get into like blame and all that, but 627 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 9: I just I wonder about the whole relationship of the 628 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 9: coaching staff saying these are the kind of players we 629 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:12,400 Speaker 9: want or you know, does the scouting staff bring them 630 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 9: the players. 631 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:14,719 Speaker 2: Say these are the guys who I think we'll just 632 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 2: touched on it. I can't I can't see it working 633 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 2: the other way. I think it has to start from 634 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 2: the head coach down where he sets the philosophy. He decides, 635 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 2: this is the type of football we want to play, 636 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 2: These are the type of players we need for each position, 637 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 2: and then he gives that menu to his scouting staff 638 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 2: and go find these players. I can't think. I can't 639 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 2: imagine it working the other way, where they're telling the 640 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 2: coach how to play. The coach has to tell them 641 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 2: how they want to play. And that was the beauty 642 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 2: of having Bill for all these years is like you 643 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 2: can argue about like he wasn't the greatest drafter throughout, 644 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 2: but like there was always that foundation, like the scoutings 645 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 2: knew how Bill wants. You know, this is a type 646 00:28:58,040 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 2: of safety he's looking right, this is the type of 647 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 2: linebacker he's looking for. And having that consistency helps, you know, 648 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 2: that's we need to get back to that. Well. 649 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 4: I think Rabel's that guy. Like Rabel, that's Elliot Wolf 650 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 4: has said that they were more organized this year in 651 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 4: the draft and a big reason why is that Rabel 652 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 4: has a vision of the type of players that he 653 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 4: wants them to draft. And I think, you know, a 654 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 4: big part of it is also Ryan Cowden and Stretch 655 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 4: being involved. But it just seems like they have types 656 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 4: now again. They have you know, scheme fits and guys 657 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 4: like this is our safety type, this is you know, 658 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 4: the body type a lot, and this is the skill 659 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 4: set that we want. And that's like last year's draft, 660 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 4: I just think even at the time in real time, 661 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 4: you were just kind of wondering, like, who does this 662 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 4: player fit? Like they were drafting you know, big power 663 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 4: guards to play in an outside zone scheme and it's like, 664 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 4: so were you drafting based off of what they were 665 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 4: doing in the past and you just didn't have the time. 666 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 4: He didn't feel like to kind of uproot the system 667 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 4: and change it on the fly. So like Leyden Robinson, 668 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 4: you know, isn't going to be on this team anymore, 669 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 4: you know, as a draft pick from last year, I 670 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 4: never really understood the scheme with Leyden Robinson, like they 671 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 4: were going to run a West Coast offense, They're gonna 672 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 4: be outside zone, and then they've drafted a power guard 673 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 4: to play in that offense, and it just didn't really 674 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 4: fit to begin with. And when you're drafting at that 675 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 4: area of the draft, third, fourth, fifth round, you're not 676 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 4: getting start Like, that's not where you're expecting to get 677 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 4: stars that are scheme proof. That's where you're expecting to 678 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 4: get depth and guys that fit what you're trying to do, right, 679 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 4: So I just I think it's a big difference when 680 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,720 Speaker 4: you have a guy like Rabel that's saying, this is 681 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 4: what we're gonna do, you know, in all all walks 682 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 4: of it, in all position groups. 683 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 7: That's I was just gonna say, sorry for that's what 684 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 7: a DNA might say. 685 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 9: And you, I think you're right, like you need to 686 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:46,720 Speaker 9: hit on those draft picks at least to have that base. 687 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 9: But I would say every two years you need to 688 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 9: find a star player. But every two years there needs 689 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 9: to be someone somewhere that come and can play above expectations. 690 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 9: And if you don't do that, you don't start to 691 00:30:58,040 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 9: those of the guys you have to hit in the. 692 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,600 Speaker 4: First Oddly they have hit in the first round, like 693 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 4: Christian Gonzalez was a hit. I think Drake May we 694 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 4: we think is going to be a hit. So in 695 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 4: a way that they have hit in the first round 696 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 4: in the last couple of years. I mean, Gonzales, All 697 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 4: Pro player like that, that was one of Bill's best 698 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 4: draft picks at the end. So it's weird. It's like 699 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 4: they actually have hit in the first round the last 700 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 4: couple of years. It's been the rest of the drafts 701 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 4: that have looked like disasters. 702 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 2: Paul looks like he's holding something in no, no, okay, And. 703 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 3: You guys are all right, yeah, I mean you guys 704 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 3: yelling me when I dominate the comtry, I hear a 705 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 3: lot of I. 706 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 2: Hear a lot of people, you know, criticizing Elliott Wolf. Well, 707 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 2: you know, the common factor in all these drafts is 708 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 2: Elliot Wolf. But I firmly believe that he's following orders 709 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 2: from above and. 710 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 3: And that might be one little thing that I was holding. Okay, 711 00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:51,719 Speaker 3: might might you might have uncovered. 712 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 2: So I think, you know, we'll see, we'll see what 713 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 2: happens with that situation. But like if if you don't 714 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 2: have that, you know, I don't know, buttoned up you know, 715 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 2: philosophy of here's the type of team, here's the type 716 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 2: of football we want to play. It makes it tough 717 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 2: on your talent evaluators. What am I evaluating for? 718 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 7: Right, you know? 719 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 9: And that's why I need to end this year feeling 720 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 9: positive about the draft picks. I mean, I think to 721 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 9: Paul's point, last year, you ended last year you didn't 722 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 9: feel great about them. I mean, maybe we felt had 723 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 9: some positivity going into the season, and maybe came the season. 724 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,680 Speaker 3: People were over the top. It was a bang of 725 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 3: a draft class. I'm already seeing now people are tweeting 726 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 3: that it looks like all the draft picks are going 727 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 3: to make it. I don't think that that will be 728 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 3: the case because I think we haven't found out. I 729 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 3: think there's still like another half dozen or so guys 730 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 3: to get cut. But that to me, doesn't make it 731 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 3: a good draft class. No, if all your rookies make it, 732 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 3: that's to me. That's especially when you have no baseline, 733 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 3: And it. 734 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 2: Also could be an indication of where the status of 735 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 2: your team now if everybody's making it, Like. 736 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 3: If you have four guys that start or that play 737 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 3: key roles and they play well, then that's a good 738 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 3: draft class. Right Like, I don't care if you know, 739 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 3: all these guys end up making it. Initially, first of all, 740 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 3: it's a little deceiving too. You have a kicker and 741 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 3: a long snapper. I mean, they gotta make it. Those 742 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 3: guys are gonna make it. But you know what, what 743 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 3: is I go back to, like right at the top, 744 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:29,240 Speaker 3: if Will Campbell is just a tackle, is that a 745 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:32,959 Speaker 3: great draft class? Or if he's like a pro Bowl player? Okay, 746 00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 3: now you know you get him and you get Henderson's 747 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 3: it looks like a playmaker. Kyle Williams. We really don't 748 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 3: know yet about Kyle Williams. We haven't really seen a 749 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 3: ton from him. But if he's contributing in like you 750 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 3: remember Malcolm Mitchell as a as a rookie, you know, like, Okay, 751 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 3: there's one, two, three, first three rounds, right, you got 752 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 3: contributing players that are playing at a pretty good level. 753 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:55,280 Speaker 3: That's a good draft class. 754 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 4: And it looks like Woodson is going to be a 755 00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 4: contributor to Yeah. 756 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,960 Speaker 3: I think he's playing. I put him in the second category, 757 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 3: like I expect him to be playing. I don't know 758 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 3: how well we'll play. I haven't seen anything from him 759 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 3: a summer. 760 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 4: He does a lot of things on the back end. 761 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,279 Speaker 3: You know, things that I don't see. 762 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 2: But you're not a ballmer, Paul. 763 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:17,400 Speaker 3: But that wasn't That wasn't for him. That was just 764 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 3: in general. It's like that's what they're selling, So I'm 765 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 3: not buying everything that they're selling. Let's put it that way. 766 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 3: A little cya going on with Elliott Wolfe. 767 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,359 Speaker 4: I don't think that, I hear you, like, I don't 768 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 4: think Craig Woodson's going to be an impact player on 769 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 4: the ball, right, But I think he's going to be. 770 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,319 Speaker 4: He's going to be in the ripe spots and he's 771 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:40,720 Speaker 4: going to be positionally sound. He's going to cover ground 772 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 4: back there, and he's going to do the things that 773 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 4: they ask him to do. I just like Harmon, Sure, 774 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 4: like Deron Harmon, Like I is he going to be 775 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,360 Speaker 4: Earl Thomas and have a bunch of interceptions and plays 776 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:54,319 Speaker 4: on the football. Probably not. But do you need those 777 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 4: types of guys? 778 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:56,719 Speaker 2: Not everyone can be. 779 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 3: I don't need Devin McCarty types. If you're going to 780 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 3: be that guy, you're not going to be. But if 781 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 3: you're not going to necessarily be that. But he wasn't 782 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 3: really a Pro Bowl safety. He was more of a 783 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 3: Pro Bowl early in his career. If if you're going 784 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 3: to be like a non playmaker back there you're just 785 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 3: going to always be in the right spot. Yeah, I 786 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 3: want I want Devin mccordy. 787 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:18,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, we all did we all do? 788 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 1: Yeah? 789 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 3: Absolutely, Yeah, I want you to be like that. Like 790 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 3: to Evans's point, like there's things that Devin mccordy did 791 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 3: that you didn't always notice, but he was always. 792 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:27,840 Speaker 2: You noticed it when he wasn't on the field right. 793 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:30,080 Speaker 3: And I noticed that they almost never gave up those 794 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:32,439 Speaker 3: over the top kind of place. Yeah, if that's what's 795 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 3: happening with Craig Woodson, then I'll gladly sit here and say, 796 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 3: well he's that kind of a player. 797 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 2: Okay, eight five five Pats five hundred is the hot line. 798 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 3: I haven't seen that in the preseason game or in 799 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 3: the practice. 800 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:44,960 Speaker 2: It's hard to see anything in the preseason. 801 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 3: I watched practice, though I can see a lot. 802 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 2: Podcast at Patriots dot Com is the email address. Let's 803 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 2: get to the phones. Remember we're going to be talking 804 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,319 Speaker 2: to Gary Myers in the second half of the show. 805 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:58,680 Speaker 3: What's that I'm just talking to having over here?

Yeah, it's hard to see 808 00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,399 Speaker 3: anything in the press, it is it is. I don't 809 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:07,840 Speaker 3: know what she's something. 810 00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:11,120 Speaker 2: You know, during the Brady years receiver rarely did they 811 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:13,600 Speaker 2: have a winning preseason, even when they were at four games. 812 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 3: We're not talking about wins and losses. We're talking about 813 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:16,720 Speaker 3: the personal. 814 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 2: I'm talking about like, how many times during the Brady 815 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 2: years we'd watch a preseason game. Boy, are twos and 816 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 2: threes aren't as good as their twos and threes? Right? 817 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:26,360 Speaker 2: We said that a lot. 818 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,360 Speaker 3: I'm sure I did. I don't know we did. I 819 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:31,759 Speaker 3: don't really. I haven't really cared about the preseason in 820 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 3: all long. 821 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 2: Okay, that's my point. 822 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:35,479 Speaker 3: Twenty five years, that's my point. 823 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:37,279 Speaker 4: Maybe they've cared about it a little longer. 824 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:41,640 Speaker 2: Billy's if you talk about joint practices, I think that's 825 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:47,759 Speaker 2: more valid. Uh, Billy's in Rentham. What's up, Billy Hey, 826 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 2: Billy Hey? 827 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:55,080 Speaker 3: Yes, turn it up. 828 00:36:55,120 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 10: Matt he is? Is he an IR guy? Or he 829 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:04,080 Speaker 10: fifty three main guy? A practice quad or. 830 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:06,720 Speaker 3: Carel Jennings? 831 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:08,799 Speaker 9: No? No, yeah, he got he got hurt, and we 832 00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:10,799 Speaker 9: haven't really seen much of him, so I'm not sure 833 00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,040 Speaker 9: where that puts him right now. But I liked him 834 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 9: last summer. I saw more of them last summer. He 835 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 9: never really jumped out to me this year like he 836 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 9: did last year. He kind of ran hard last year. 837 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,360 Speaker 9: But yeah, he's a big question mark for me. I 838 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 9: wouldn't be surprised to see him sick on the practice squad, 839 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 9: but I don't. 840 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 7: I haven't seen. 841 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,400 Speaker 9: Anything to think that he's going to push for fifty 842 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 9: three spot. Yeah, yeah, yeah, those guys probably practice squads though, 843 00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 9: I think. 844 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 4: Yeah I did. Did they keep four running backs? I 845 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 4: think is one thing that was sort of circled on 846 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 4: my because I think Gleann Larrison was going to make 847 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:50,360 Speaker 4: the team field stayed healthy, My guy, yeah, got hurt. 848 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,080 Speaker 4: I think he was going to make the team. So 849 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 4: do they have to do they pivot to a different 850 00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 4: running back? I think there's reports out there that it's 851 00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 4: not going to be hasty that Tasty was was released. 852 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:05,160 Speaker 3: So and certainly to Billy's point, if Terrell Jennings is 853 00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:07,239 Speaker 3: on the fifty three man roster, I think Evan's right, 854 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:09,840 Speaker 3: that was a sign that land Larrison probably would have 855 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 3: made the team. Now if they stick with three, then 856 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:12,200 Speaker 3: I don't know. 857 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 2: Let's go to Christian. He's going to behave today. Christian 858 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:18,839 Speaker 2: in La, what's up? Oh, what's going on over there? 859 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 2: What are you doing? I can't hear you.

Now? 863 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 2: We keep talking, keep talking of all. 864 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 10: Bradberry thing, but wait instead of sitting in reserve. 865 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:49,320 Speaker 2: It's hard to hear you. Sorry, Christian, You've got a 866 00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:49,960 Speaker 2: bad connection. 867 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 3: It's calling from an uber that car from underwater. 868 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's hard. 869 00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 4: Something about Bradberry. I heard that. 870 00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:58,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. 871 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 4: Bradberry's on the team and he's gonna be the starting 872 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 4: center and we're gonna. 873 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 7: See how it goes and you will like it. 874 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 4: That's the Bradbury analysis. Like he's gonna play, he's gonna start. 875 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,000 Speaker 4: If it goes poorly, I think it could get interesting. 876 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,640 Speaker 4: Maybe Ben Brown goes into the starting lineup, maybe Jared 877 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:18,040 Speaker 4: Wilson bumps over the center and something like that. 878 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 2: But they're gonna roll with Bradbury for now, all right, 879 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:24,400 Speaker 2: Brentson Reno, Hey, Brent. 880 00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:27,680 Speaker 10: Hey, guys, you're talking about draft classes. 881 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:29,480 Speaker 11: I'm want to shout out to the boss man Frey 882 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:32,320 Speaker 11: Kurs for Ironhawks Audio getting shop. 883 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 10: Well, love it great, pick.

Who's high? 897 00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 4: Like ninety nine is the high? 898 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:09,279 Speaker 2: Ninety nine is high?

But ninety nine to ninety 902 00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 4: nine club is like a player thing. But that's like 903 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 4: the four or five best players in the NFL get 904 00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:27,279 Speaker 4: rated ninety nine. I think this year it's Lamar, Josh, Allen, Miles, Garrett. Yeah, 905 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:31,800 Speaker 4: so what if you're an win team, usually probably like 906 00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:32,919 Speaker 4: seventy eight. 907 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:34,160 Speaker 2: Okay, that's what it is. 908 00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 4: You're going to put an exact number for you?

Did scouts mess up? 976 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:24,240 Speaker 2: Did Belichick ignore input? 977 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:25,440 Speaker 12: Why? 978 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:26,280 Speaker 3: Twenty twenty? 979 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:30,319 Speaker 7: The twenty twenties, Oh yeah, twenty twenty, So. 980 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:31,480 Speaker 2: Why were they so bad? 981 00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 4: There's a lot to unpacked. 982 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:33,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, what's the autopsy? 983 00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:37,759 Speaker 3: I mean, there's probably no simple answer. But I do 984 00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:43,160 Speaker 3: feel Bill like the whole notion of identifying the players 985 00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 3: you want and that that fit you. I think part 986 00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:49,360 Speaker 3: of the problem was that those guys were no longer 987 00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:54,160 Speaker 3: as effective in the in the current game. He's looking for, 988 00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:58,280 Speaker 3: you know, bigger guys to be stout in two gap 989 00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:00,640 Speaker 3: and a lot of other team teams are sort of 990 00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:07,440 Speaker 3: transitioning to smaller, quicker, you know, more athletic deep defenders, 991 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 3: and at the same time you're looking to exploit those 992 00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:14,360 Speaker 3: guys a little bit on offense. 993 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:14,920 Speaker 12: You know. 994 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:17,400 Speaker 3: The playmaker thing. I mean, it speaks for itself with 995 00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,640 Speaker 3: Belichick's drafts, like when was the last like real playmaker 996 00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:21,720 Speaker 3: he was able to acquire? 997 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 8: Fred Gary is ready to go. 998 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:28,720 Speaker 2: Okay, all right, well listen, we won't make them hold on. Gary. 999 00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:32,640 Speaker 2: Myers is on the line, and Gary is coming out 1000 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:37,320 Speaker 2: on September sixteenth with Brady versus Belichick. I've got that 1001 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:39,960 Speaker 2: right here. I've read it, Paul has read it. Gary. 1002 00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:40,839 Speaker 2: Welcome to the show. 1003 00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:44,000 Speaker 8: How you doing, guys, Thanks for having me on. 1004 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:49,280 Speaker 2: It's Paul Pirello, Evan Lazarre, Mike Dusseau, myself, Fred Kirsch. 1005 00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:51,319 Speaker 2: First of all, congratulations on the book. 1006 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:54,400 Speaker 8: Thanks a lot. It was It was really a lot 1007 00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 8: of fun to research and write it. 1008 00:44:56,920 --> 00:44:59,720 Speaker 13: And you know, I've told people that, you know, although 1009 00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 13: I was working in New York all those years, I 1010 00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:06,319 Speaker 13: cover an awful lot of Patriots games, so I felt 1011 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:09,399 Speaker 13: like I'd lived through the whole twenty years like people 1012 00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:12,040 Speaker 13: in New England did, and met a lot of people 1013 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,879 Speaker 13: made a lot of contexts and you know, hopefully put 1014 00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 13: together a book that people will enjoy reading. 1015 00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:19,960 Speaker 2: So a lot of these books, these retrospective books, you know, 1016 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:23,120 Speaker 2: we go in hoping to learn new things, which even 1017 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,200 Speaker 2: I've been with the team for over thirty years, I 1018 00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:27,000 Speaker 2: think I learned some new things. And we can get 1019 00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,360 Speaker 2: into that in a little bit. But what did you 1020 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:32,560 Speaker 2: learn in the process of writing this book. 1021 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:38,920 Speaker 13: That's a good question. Let me think about that one 1022 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:43,400 Speaker 13: for one second. I think the thing that really stood 1023 00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:49,600 Speaker 13: out to me was that people have tended to forget 1024 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:55,240 Speaker 13: with Belichick's influence was on Brady early in his career, 1025 00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:59,759 Speaker 13: because it surely seemed over the last ten years of 1026 00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:03,200 Speaker 13: the dynasty, and I think it's you know, two distinct 1027 00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:05,720 Speaker 13: ten year dynasties in which they won three Super Bowls 1028 00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 13: in each of the ten years. But I think in 1029 00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:10,480 Speaker 13: the last ten years it was clearly Brady's team, and 1030 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:15,560 Speaker 13: he was a dominant contributor and personality of the team. 1031 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:20,399 Speaker 13: But you know, early on, like I said, I think 1032 00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:24,479 Speaker 13: when people are starting to evaluate the twenty years together, 1033 00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:27,279 Speaker 13: they're forgetting that Tom was a six round pick and 1034 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:30,880 Speaker 13: he hadn't gotten drafted by Belichick. Hem and not have 1035 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:34,800 Speaker 13: been drafted, and Bill kept him as a fourth string quarterback. 1036 00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:35,880 Speaker 8: And then the following year. 1037 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 13: Everybody knows that Bledsoe got hurt and he was ready 1038 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:42,520 Speaker 13: to come back two months later, and Bill kept and 1039 00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:46,680 Speaker 13: stuck with Tom. And I think Belichick deserves a lot 1040 00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:48,719 Speaker 13: of credit for all those things I just mentioned, but 1041 00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:50,400 Speaker 13: I think it kind of gets lost. 1042 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:56,400 Speaker 8: In the overall evaluation of the Patriots accomplishments. 1043 00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:58,480 Speaker 13: And I think that's that's what I really took out 1044 00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:01,360 Speaker 13: of this, is that with all people I spoke with, 1045 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:04,000 Speaker 13: it's oh, you know, the ones who said it was 1046 00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:09,759 Speaker 13: clearly Tom and I used to play devil's advocate for 1047 00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:12,239 Speaker 13: a little bit, you know, I was saying, well, what 1048 00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:14,160 Speaker 13: about this and what about that? And how it all 1049 00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:17,120 Speaker 13: got started? And you know, doesn't Belichick deserve credit for that? 1050 00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:20,160 Speaker 13: And you, oh, yeah, you know, we've kind of forgot 1051 00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:24,920 Speaker 13: about that stuff. So I think, again, the overall big 1052 00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:31,640 Speaker 13: picture tends to overshadow the early years of the Brady 1053 00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:32,799 Speaker 13: Belichick relationship. 1054 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:35,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, you mentioned you talked to you know, you had 1055 00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:37,040 Speaker 3: a lot of interviews in this book, and you talk 1056 00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:40,280 Speaker 3: to a lot of different people. Did anybody I assume 1057 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:42,120 Speaker 3: that some of these people you didn't really have much 1058 00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:45,239 Speaker 3: of a relationship beforehand. Did anybody really stick out to 1059 00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:50,280 Speaker 3: you as being really insightful in terms of their analysis? 1060 00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:52,080 Speaker 8: Absolutely. 1061 00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:53,560 Speaker 13: And I'm going to give you a name, and you're 1062 00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:55,880 Speaker 13: going to say, how did you not know that? But 1063 00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:59,160 Speaker 13: I didn't really know Devin mccordy before I sat down 1064 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:01,600 Speaker 13: with him. I had breakfast with him one morning in 1065 00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:03,839 Speaker 13: New Jersey, uh, you know, a year and a half 1066 00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:08,960 Speaker 13: ago whatever, And I had heard from uh, you know, 1067 00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:12,920 Speaker 13: Aaron Salkin and the Patriots PR Department. When I was 1068 00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:15,560 Speaker 13: asking him for his recommendations on some guys that I 1069 00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 13: didn't know, you know, who would be good for me 1070 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:19,680 Speaker 13: to get to get together with. 1071 00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:22,239 Speaker 8: He said that Devon was at the top of his list. 1072 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:24,680 Speaker 13: And I'd come away blown away by what a great 1073 00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:27,680 Speaker 13: guy he was and how smart he was and insightful. 1074 00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:31,240 Speaker 8: And I think Aaron even underestimated Devin. 1075 00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 13: He's one of the I've gotten to know him really 1076 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:37,919 Speaker 13: well in the time since I interviewed him, and we've 1077 00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:40,840 Speaker 13: gotten together a few times, you know, all in the 1078 00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:42,360 Speaker 13: forty years I've covered the league. 1079 00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:43,760 Speaker 8: I mean, I put him in my top. 1080 00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:45,600 Speaker 13: Five of guys that I really really like a lot, 1081 00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:49,800 Speaker 13: and he's just a great guy and he's really smart, 1082 00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:53,400 Speaker 13: and I'm not surprised he's doing so well on television 1083 00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:55,719 Speaker 13: and you know, on top of a lot, obviously he 1084 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:56,480 Speaker 13: was a great player. 1085 00:48:57,239 --> 00:49:00,399 Speaker 8: Voted a captain in only his second year is pretty 1086 00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:03,120 Speaker 8: unusual for a team that was, you know, filled with veterans. 1087 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:04,399 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1088 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:06,600 Speaker 3: Absolutely, I'm sure you know that he and I are 1089 00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:09,960 Speaker 3: colleagues on the paper the Patriots preseason games. So yeah, 1090 00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:13,040 Speaker 3: Devn and I are pretty tight. Yeah, absolutely, Yeah. 1091 00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:16,799 Speaker 8: I mean you're lucky because I really enjoy him a lot. 1092 00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:18,040 Speaker 3: He's great. 1093 00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:20,920 Speaker 2: One of the things I learned Gary, and you know, 1094 00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:23,879 Speaker 2: I don't want to give away your conclusion. Let people 1095 00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:26,640 Speaker 2: read it and read that for themselves. But one of 1096 00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:29,480 Speaker 2: the things I learned, I don't I didn't know that 1097 00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:34,120 Speaker 2: when Parcels, when Kraft bought the team, that Parcels had 1098 00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:37,399 Speaker 2: asked if maybe Tim Mahra could be hired as sort 1099 00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:40,440 Speaker 2: of a go between what like, I had no idea 1100 00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:40,840 Speaker 2: about that. 1101 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:44,359 Speaker 13: Yeah, it wasn't so much to be hired. He wanted 1102 00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:47,239 Speaker 13: to craft to sell one percent of the team to 1103 00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:51,560 Speaker 13: Tim Mahra. You know, Tim was Bill's confident with the Giants. 1104 00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:54,759 Speaker 13: Now Bill had a great relationship with Willing Timara, but 1105 00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:57,760 Speaker 13: he was really close to Tim Marhra and he felt 1106 00:49:57,960 --> 00:50:03,120 Speaker 13: that Tim could be kind of the buffer between him 1107 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:06,200 Speaker 13: and Craft and suggested to him. I don't know how 1108 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:09,600 Speaker 13: deep into the Craft ownership that happened, but it wasn't 1109 00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:12,360 Speaker 13: very long that he went to Craft and said, you know, 1110 00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:15,200 Speaker 13: I got this great idea. You know, why don't you 1111 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:17,680 Speaker 13: sell one percent to Tim Mayer. You know, he's my guy, 1112 00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 13: and then we can communicate through him. And Kraft goes, no, 1113 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:24,320 Speaker 13: I'm not doing that. I don't want anybody between you 1114 00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:26,799 Speaker 13: and me. I want us to have that kind of relationship. 1115 00:50:27,520 --> 00:50:30,600 Speaker 13: And Bill just never embraced Craft, which you guys know 1116 00:50:30,840 --> 00:50:36,320 Speaker 13: because after four years the relationship kind of disintegrated and 1117 00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:40,160 Speaker 13: Bill was gone. But I think that's something they both 1118 00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:43,000 Speaker 13: come to regret. But just the fact that Bill wanted 1119 00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:47,080 Speaker 13: to bring in his own guy into ownership tells you 1120 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:49,000 Speaker 13: all you need to know about how Bill felt about 1121 00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:50,239 Speaker 13: Craft in the early years. 1122 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:53,399 Speaker 3: I wanted to stick on the Parcels thing because one 1123 00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:55,360 Speaker 3: of the things that stood out to me when reading 1124 00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:58,600 Speaker 3: it was the story of when Parcels originally left the Giants, 1125 00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:03,640 Speaker 3: and you had sort of explained how, and I remember, 1126 00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:05,480 Speaker 3: you know, so what, I was just out of college 1127 00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:07,440 Speaker 3: when this happened, and I sort of remember, but I 1128 00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:09,600 Speaker 3: wasn't in the business yet or anything like that, so 1129 00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:12,360 Speaker 3: I didn't know all the details. I always felt Parcels 1130 00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:15,560 Speaker 3: left the Giants late, you know, when he stepped down, 1131 00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:18,919 Speaker 3: and it was after Belichick had already accepted the Cleveland job, 1132 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:21,759 Speaker 3: and I kind of took that out as well. He 1133 00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:24,600 Speaker 3: obviously didn't want Belichick to replace him. But you sort 1134 00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:27,920 Speaker 3: of explained how George Young had always said that Belichick 1135 00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:29,399 Speaker 3: would never be the Giants head coach. 1136 00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:34,600 Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, Parcels towards the end of the nineteen 1137 00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:38,560 Speaker 13: ninety season went to George Young and said, do you 1138 00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:41,600 Speaker 13: want me to do everything I can to keep Belichick 1139 00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:45,080 Speaker 13: and or Tom Coughlin because you know, Tom then went 1140 00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:48,480 Speaker 13: to Boston College and stayed the rest of the season 1141 00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:51,600 Speaker 13: with the Giants, and Belichick got hired, you know, quickly 1142 00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:53,520 Speaker 13: after the Giants beat the Bills in a Super Bowl, 1143 00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:54,760 Speaker 13: and George told him. 1144 00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:56,680 Speaker 8: No, let him both go if they want to go. 1145 00:51:57,440 --> 00:51:59,319 Speaker 13: And Bill goes, but I'm not sure what I'm doing 1146 00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:02,920 Speaker 13: next year, And George said, no, that's okay, and that's 1147 00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:05,040 Speaker 13: because he had Ray Hanley in mind, the running back 1148 00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:10,520 Speaker 13: coach that nobody ever really knew much about. But he 1149 00:52:10,640 --> 00:52:13,120 Speaker 13: was very similar to George. You know, they're both very 1150 00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:18,040 Speaker 13: you know, professorial types that would say kind of eggheads, 1151 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:19,600 Speaker 13: and George felt he was. 1152 00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:23,200 Speaker 8: Ray Hanley was a kindred spirit. Although nobody had any idea. 1153 00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:26,480 Speaker 13: That he did anything for the Giants other than he 1154 00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:31,640 Speaker 13: was really helpful of parcels in the game management because 1155 00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 13: he was a card counter in Vegas and he actually 1156 00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:36,839 Speaker 13: got thrown out of Vegas to doing that. So he's 1157 00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:39,880 Speaker 13: great with numbers and so managing the clock in the 1158 00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:42,359 Speaker 13: last few minutes of the game, it was it came 1159 00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:47,279 Speaker 13: naturally to him and that was his biggest contribution. So 1160 00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:50,440 Speaker 13: when Belichick left, you know, Kaflan had already decided to 1161 00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:53,399 Speaker 13: leave to go to BC, and then Bill didn't leave 1162 00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:54,919 Speaker 13: until the end in the middle of May. 1163 00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:57,520 Speaker 8: A lot of people thought that Bill did it to. 1164 00:52:57,520 --> 00:53:00,800 Speaker 13: Screw over the Giants because he enjoyed didn't get along. 1165 00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:03,919 Speaker 13: And that goes back to after bill S first season, 1166 00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:07,120 Speaker 13: he was three twelve and one and George would have 1167 00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:11,000 Speaker 13: hired Howard Schnellenberger to replace him, except Snollenburger turned it down. 1168 00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:14,359 Speaker 13: Bill found out about it through Al Davis, who found 1169 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:16,640 Speaker 13: out about it through Jimmy the Greek and. 1170 00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:21,120 Speaker 8: So Parcels always resented George. 1171 00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:23,400 Speaker 13: After that, and I think that had something to do 1172 00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:27,400 Speaker 13: with the fact that Belichick and George never got along. 1173 00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:30,880 Speaker 13: So Belichick was never going to be the coach of 1174 00:53:30,920 --> 00:53:34,600 Speaker 13: the Giants, I mean, taking the Cleveland job. 1175 00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:36,799 Speaker 8: If he wanted. 1176 00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:40,120 Speaker 13: I'm not even sure he would have survived the change 1177 00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:42,400 Speaker 13: over to the staff to Ray Hanley, not that he 1178 00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:44,600 Speaker 13: would have wanted to, but if he didn't get the 1179 00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:47,200 Speaker 13: Cleveland job, I'm not sure where Bill would have been 1180 00:53:47,200 --> 00:53:48,359 Speaker 13: coaching in nineteen ninety one. 1181 00:53:48,719 --> 00:53:48,919 Speaker 8: Yeah. 1182 00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:52,080 Speaker 2: The other thing I think I learned. I'm not sure 1183 00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:55,640 Speaker 2: I knew this, but maybe I forgot. But you write 1184 00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:59,920 Speaker 2: that the day that Brady went over to tell Kraft 1185 00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:02,400 Speaker 2: that you know this is it, I'm leaving that he 1186 00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:05,880 Speaker 2: already had the Tampa Bajor. He had already decided that 1187 00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:07,920 Speaker 2: he was going to the BUX. I don't think I 1188 00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:08,320 Speaker 2: knew that. 1189 00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:10,239 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think that. 1190 00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:12,239 Speaker 13: Well, First of all, there weren't that many teams that 1191 00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:16,799 Speaker 13: were going after Brady. If you remember, the Raiders were 1192 00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:20,439 Speaker 13: somewhat interested, but Gruden put the kebash on that. Tom 1193 00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:23,320 Speaker 13: actually said a couple of months ago that Chicago was 1194 00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:24,880 Speaker 13: a possibility. 1195 00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:31,960 Speaker 8: But Tampa was his hand picked spot. 1196 00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:34,400 Speaker 13: Again, it wasn't like he had twenty teams after him, 1197 00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:39,080 Speaker 13: and he had studied the roster and there was some 1198 00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:41,640 Speaker 13: pieces in place in the front office there he's familiar with, 1199 00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:45,839 Speaker 13: and they had a really good team. I mean they 1200 00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:49,600 Speaker 13: were seven or nine in twenty nineteen with James Winston 1201 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:53,600 Speaker 13: throwing thirty interceptions to go along with thirty three touchdowns. 1202 00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:54,879 Speaker 8: So it was clear they had a good team. 1203 00:54:54,920 --> 00:54:58,799 Speaker 13: I think went seven games with a quarterback throwing thirty interceptions. 1204 00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:01,640 Speaker 13: So he knew that it was a spot and it 1205 00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:03,319 Speaker 13: was only a couple of days later that they made 1206 00:55:03,360 --> 00:55:03,880 Speaker 13: it efficient. 1207 00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:07,600 Speaker 9: Yeah, I got I got a question, how ahead, Mike, Hey, Gary, 1208 00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:10,680 Speaker 9: you know you've written about the forty nine Ers, the Cowboys, 1209 00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:14,120 Speaker 9: some of these other dynasties. Do we only look at 1210 00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:17,640 Speaker 9: this Patriots dynasty as Belichick first Brady? Was there an 1211 00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:21,880 Speaker 9: element of you know, Bill wash Montana or Staback you 1212 00:55:21,920 --> 00:55:22,560 Speaker 9: know in Landry. 1213 00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:24,640 Speaker 7: Do do we only look at this relationship on the 1214 00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:25,960 Speaker 7: Patriots uniquely this way? 1215 00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:30,680 Speaker 2: Meaning when we look at the like who was more 1216 00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:35,520 Speaker 2: like like, are there debates about who was more? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 1217 00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:40,520 Speaker 8: Well I think with the Niners, you know, there was. 1218 00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:46,080 Speaker 13: Uh, you know, Walsh and Montana won three Super Bowls together, 1219 00:55:46,239 --> 00:55:52,360 Speaker 13: but then the year after Walsh retired, Montana led the 1220 00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:55,600 Speaker 13: Niners to another super Bowl with George Seffert, and that was, 1221 00:55:56,440 --> 00:55:58,000 Speaker 13: you know, was one of the two or three of 1222 00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:04,359 Speaker 13: the better teams that the Niners had. If I think 1223 00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:07,920 Speaker 13: the reason that were kind of fixated on this somewhat 1224 00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:11,600 Speaker 13: is because it was it was six championships together. Wals 1225 00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:15,520 Speaker 13: in Montana was three, Landry and Starback was two, and 1226 00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:19,480 Speaker 13: they also lost a couple of Super Bowls together. The 1227 00:56:19,600 --> 00:56:22,759 Speaker 13: fact that Brady and Belichick was six and three, you know, 1228 00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:26,040 Speaker 13: far two more super Bowl championships than Nolan. Brats are 1229 00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:30,040 Speaker 13: one and two more than Montana one, and like I mentioned, 1230 00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:32,800 Speaker 13: three of those were with Walsh. I think that, like 1231 00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:37,560 Speaker 13: the body of work almost begs the question, and because 1232 00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:40,000 Speaker 13: it also lasted twenty years, it begs the question of 1233 00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:44,000 Speaker 13: which one of these two is more was more responsible? 1234 00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:47,040 Speaker 8: And when when you think that Belichick is, you. 1235 00:56:47,040 --> 00:56:50,920 Speaker 13: Know, arguably the best coaching NFL history and Brady is 1236 00:56:51,239 --> 00:56:54,759 Speaker 13: inarguably the greatest quarterback in the NFL history. It's such 1237 00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:57,600 Speaker 13: a unique circumstance when you have guys who were, you know, 1238 00:56:57,640 --> 00:57:00,480 Speaker 13: at the very top of what they did, and they 1239 00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:03,239 Speaker 13: did it together. I think it's only natural to try 1240 00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:06,080 Speaker 13: to figure out which one was more responsible. 1241 00:57:06,480 --> 00:57:09,440 Speaker 3: And despite all that, Gary, who did Jimmy Garoppolo say 1242 00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:10,200 Speaker 3: it was responsible? 1243 00:57:10,280 --> 00:57:10,400 Speaker 12: Right? 1244 00:57:11,080 --> 00:57:13,040 Speaker 8: Yeah? I mean that was That's one of the best 1245 00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:14,000 Speaker 8: quotes to have in the book. 1246 00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:16,400 Speaker 13: When I asked Jimmy that question and he said it 1247 00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:20,320 Speaker 13: was craft basically because he was putting out fires all 1248 00:57:20,400 --> 00:57:23,600 Speaker 13: the time. I didn't use this quote that Jimmy says, 1249 00:57:23,600 --> 00:57:25,400 Speaker 13: you know, one day, we'll get together for a beer 1250 00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:27,919 Speaker 13: and I'll tell you all the inside stuff. I can't 1251 00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:29,840 Speaker 13: tell you how many times I've heard that from players 1252 00:57:29,880 --> 00:57:32,000 Speaker 13: and coaches. You know, just give me a few years 1253 00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:33,600 Speaker 13: when I'm out of the game, and I'll tell you 1254 00:57:33,640 --> 00:57:34,360 Speaker 13: all the good stuff. 1255 00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:34,720 Speaker 3: Right. 1256 00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:37,480 Speaker 8: Well, that's a retire they say, Now I still can't 1257 00:57:37,480 --> 00:57:37,800 Speaker 8: tell you that. 1258 00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:40,240 Speaker 2: Well, that's the thing. Gary is like, you know, people say, 1259 00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:43,200 Speaker 2: you know, why did the Patriots dynasty break up? You 1260 00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:46,400 Speaker 2: know what, what was the I think the real question 1261 00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:49,000 Speaker 2: is how did they keep it together for twenty years? 1262 00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:52,320 Speaker 2: Because you talk to guys like Jimmy Johnson, and you know, 1263 00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:55,080 Speaker 2: once you start winning, everyone's got their handout and the 1264 00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:58,479 Speaker 2: entitlement that goes on in any organization from the top down. 1265 00:57:59,040 --> 00:58:02,800 Speaker 2: But to keep together for twenty years, I think Craft 1266 00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:04,720 Speaker 2: did have a lot to do with that in terms 1267 00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:08,640 Speaker 2: of whether it's putting out fires or just mending fences 1268 00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:11,400 Speaker 2: between Belichick and Brady. 1269 00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:11,400 Speaker 10: And all that. 1270 00:58:11,720 --> 00:58:15,240 Speaker 2: So I can understand where Garoppolo is coming from when 1271 00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:17,000 Speaker 2: he says that absolutely. 1272 00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:17,840 Speaker 8: I think that's the. 1273 00:58:19,800 --> 00:58:27,040 Speaker 13: Understated contribution of the dynasty is Robert Crafts role in it. 1274 00:58:27,320 --> 00:58:29,920 Speaker 13: You know, besides all the market he's a great businessman, 1275 00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:32,280 Speaker 13: as you all know, and he bought a franchise for 1276 00:58:32,320 --> 00:58:34,600 Speaker 13: about two hundred million dollars that's probably worth close to 1277 00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:36,320 Speaker 13: ten billion now. But a lot of it has to, 1278 00:58:37,080 --> 00:58:41,320 Speaker 13: you know, be attributed to Belichick because the winning is 1279 00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:45,960 Speaker 13: would increase the value of the team. I think Craft 1280 00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:49,120 Speaker 13: did a lot, especially the last ten years, to keep 1281 00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:51,360 Speaker 13: things together and to try to patch things up and 1282 00:58:51,960 --> 00:58:55,280 Speaker 13: smooth things over between Craft and Belichick because you know, 1283 00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:58,640 Speaker 13: I mean between Brady and Belichick, the more you win, 1284 00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:02,600 Speaker 13: the harder it is to stay together. Al Davis always 1285 00:59:02,640 --> 00:59:04,960 Speaker 13: told Parcells ten years as the max you can coach 1286 00:59:05,040 --> 00:59:08,640 Speaker 13: in one place because your audience starts turning a. 1287 00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:11,200 Speaker 8: Deaf ear to what your message is. 1288 00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:11,360 Speaker 2: Now. 1289 00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:13,800 Speaker 13: I think that's changed over the years because of free agency, 1290 00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:17,160 Speaker 13: because there's a thirty percent roster turnover on the average 1291 00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:19,920 Speaker 13: team every year, so you have a new audience every year. 1292 00:59:20,520 --> 00:59:23,360 Speaker 13: But for them to stay as long together as long 1293 00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:28,720 Speaker 13: as they did was remarkable, and for it to not 1294 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:33,680 Speaker 13: blow up until after twenty years together is unheard of. 1295 00:59:34,440 --> 00:59:38,920 Speaker 8: And I think that the one question I didn't address 1296 00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:39,280 Speaker 8: in the book. 1297 00:59:39,320 --> 00:59:42,400 Speaker 13: You know, sometimes I guess kicked myself sometimes after it's 1298 00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:43,800 Speaker 13: too late to change anything. 1299 00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:47,320 Speaker 8: The one question I would have liked. 1300 00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:49,640 Speaker 13: To explore, and maybe you guys have insight into this 1301 00:59:50,560 --> 00:59:52,880 Speaker 13: is what would have happened if Belichick was the one 1302 00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:55,600 Speaker 13: who went to Tampa and Tom stayed. 1303 00:59:55,400 --> 00:59:55,960 Speaker 8: In New England. 1304 00:59:56,800 --> 00:59:59,480 Speaker 13: So Tom tried to win with the roster that Belichick 1305 00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:03,040 Speaker 13: had put together. Other would say Josh McDaniels as the 1306 01:00:03,080 --> 01:00:06,880 Speaker 13: head coach, and Belichick went to Tampa with that roster, 1307 01:00:07,800 --> 01:00:10,320 Speaker 13: and maybe he would have kept Jameis Winston, I don't. 1308 01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:16,280 Speaker 14: Know, or just brought in somebody else. Yeah, with Winston, No, 1309 01:00:16,640 --> 01:00:18,120 Speaker 14: you know, maybe he would have. Maybe he would what 1310 01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:22,520 Speaker 14: Cam Newton to, uh right, right, Yeah, who knows? 1311 01:00:23,640 --> 01:00:26,640 Speaker 13: But you know, could Belichick have if they were if 1312 01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:29,200 Speaker 13: they were to switch spots then because one of the 1313 01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:31,720 Speaker 13: quotes in the book from Belichick that he told me 1314 01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:35,120 Speaker 13: was that, you know, Tom, they wouldn't have won it 1315 01:00:35,120 --> 01:00:38,640 Speaker 13: in twenty twenty with Tom because the roster had you know, 1316 01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:42,000 Speaker 13: fallen apart, uh to such an extent that he didn't 1317 01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:46,200 Speaker 13: think Tom could win there. So but you know, in 1318 01:00:46,760 --> 01:00:49,080 Speaker 13: what I would call the alternate Universe that I had 1319 01:00:49,120 --> 01:00:51,040 Speaker 13: a chapter in the book about the old universe about 1320 01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:53,040 Speaker 13: things that could have happened in NFL history but didn't. 1321 01:00:53,680 --> 01:00:57,280 Speaker 13: I should have included this is would Belichick have won 1322 01:00:57,360 --> 01:00:59,440 Speaker 13: in Tampa without Tom? And could Tom have won in 1323 01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:02,040 Speaker 13: New England with out Belichick the way those two teams 1324 01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:03,480 Speaker 13: were constructed. 1325 01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:05,480 Speaker 2: In I think I think if it's a it's a 1326 01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:08,200 Speaker 2: fun discussion, But I think for Bill it would have 1327 01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:11,120 Speaker 2: taken longer. He needs to build his team the way 1328 01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:11,520 Speaker 2: he wonts. 1329 01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:14,479 Speaker 3: The answer is probably no for both. But I would 1330 01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:17,760 Speaker 3: say that that same roster won twelve games with Brady 1331 01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:20,160 Speaker 3: quarterback in the year before it was deteriorating all over 1332 01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:22,400 Speaker 3: the place. We knew, we were all covering it at 1333 01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:25,400 Speaker 3: the time. I don't think they were a championship contender 1334 01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:29,040 Speaker 3: with even if Brady stayed, but they they wouldn't have 1335 01:01:29,200 --> 01:01:30,960 Speaker 3: fallen apart like that with Brady. 1336 01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:34,560 Speaker 13: If you remember, and you guys know this better than 1337 01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:38,000 Speaker 13: I do, but if he ended twenty nineteen season, season 1338 01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:39,040 Speaker 13: didn't the Patriots. 1339 01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:44,040 Speaker 8: Was a home game to Miami. Oh yeah, first round. 1340 01:01:46,240 --> 01:01:50,120 Speaker 13: Yeah, so it just continued the next week against against 1341 01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:53,400 Speaker 13: Tennessee and the playoffs. You know, the arrow was pointing down. 1342 01:01:53,560 --> 01:01:55,920 Speaker 13: But if they had won that game against Miami, who 1343 01:01:55,960 --> 01:01:56,840 Speaker 13: knows what would have happened. 1344 01:01:57,160 --> 01:01:59,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, I wouldn't have won the Super Bowl, but you 1345 01:01:59,280 --> 01:01:59,560 Speaker 8: never know. 1346 01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:03,040 Speaker 2: But like I said, you know, when Vrabel came in here, 1347 01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:06,520 Speaker 2: he started, he starts he's bringing in his guys. When 1348 01:02:06,600 --> 01:02:09,439 Speaker 2: Belichick first got to the Patriots, one of the first 1349 01:02:09,520 --> 01:02:12,600 Speaker 2: things he did was start to bring in his guys like, 1350 01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:16,000 Speaker 2: you know, Bobby Hamilton and Anthony Pleasant, you know, guys 1351 01:02:16,040 --> 01:02:19,240 Speaker 2: that were his circle the wagon, guys like Parcels used 1352 01:02:19,280 --> 01:02:21,600 Speaker 2: to call him. So I think Bill going to Tampa, 1353 01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:25,280 Speaker 2: it wouldn't have been I think eventually he'd probably start winning. 1354 01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:26,840 Speaker 2: But I don't think it would have been immediately. 1355 01:02:27,280 --> 01:02:29,840 Speaker 13: You have to remember this, in my opinion, at least 1356 01:02:30,560 --> 01:02:33,840 Speaker 13: the Tampa roster in twenty twenty was much better than 1357 01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:34,680 Speaker 13: the Patriots luster. 1358 01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:37,680 Speaker 8: And to god, yes, all they needed was a quarterback. 1359 01:02:37,760 --> 01:02:40,760 Speaker 13: They had a good defense, they had a really good 1360 01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:44,520 Speaker 13: offensive line, they had two good receivers and Evans and Godwin, 1361 01:02:44,600 --> 01:02:47,080 Speaker 13: they had some good tight ends that they just needed 1362 01:02:47,120 --> 01:02:51,600 Speaker 13: a quarterback. Maybe they needed the greatest quarterback ever to win. 1363 01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:55,360 Speaker 13: Maybe somebody a notch or two below wouldn't have won. 1364 01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:58,120 Speaker 13: But I think I'm not sure that Belichick would have 1365 01:02:58,120 --> 01:02:59,280 Speaker 13: had to turn over that roster. 1366 01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:03,000 Speaker 2: It'd be a culture shock for those guys under Bruce 1367 01:03:03,080 --> 01:03:05,360 Speaker 2: arians and then going to Bill Belichick that would have 1368 01:03:05,440 --> 01:03:09,360 Speaker 2: been like yeah, so I don't know, but Gary, I appreciate. 1369 01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:12,439 Speaker 2: If the book is Brady Versus Belichick, it is going 1370 01:03:12,520 --> 01:03:15,440 Speaker 2: to be available September sixteenth, Do I have that correct? 1371 01:03:15,800 --> 01:03:19,880 Speaker 13: That's right, It's Brady versus Belichick, The Dynasty Debate September sixteenth, 1372 01:03:20,160 --> 01:03:25,480 Speaker 13: and anybody who's interested in pre ordering Amazon, you know, 1373 01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:29,000 Speaker 13: wherever online services you like, or it'll be in bookstores 1374 01:03:29,040 --> 01:03:30,080 Speaker 13: on September sixteenth. 1375 01:03:30,640 --> 01:03:32,760 Speaker 2: Some of us still go to bookstores.

He's he's really been durable. 1604 01:12:46,640 --> 01:12:49,880 Speaker 2: Veins are popping out, like he is jacked up. 1605 01:12:50,120 --> 01:12:50,680 Speaker 11: He is just. 1606 01:12:50,880 --> 01:12:52,120 Speaker 1: Thirsty on Instagram. 1607 01:12:52,280 --> 01:12:54,400 Speaker 4: It's like, come on, take it easy, jewels stuff. 1608 01:12:55,280 --> 01:12:57,120 Speaker 17: I'm a little worried about his obsession with the short 1609 01:12:57,160 --> 01:12:58,280 Speaker 17: shorts cut off. 1610 01:12:58,600 --> 01:13:00,559 Speaker 2: Listen, if I look like him, I be nude. 1611 01:13:00,760 --> 01:13:06,840 Speaker 1: That's another great moment, all right. 1612 01:13:06,880 --> 01:13:10,880 Speaker 2: Back here, and Patriots make you Gary Myers for doing that. 1613 01:13:11,400 --> 01:13:13,920 Speaker 2: It's a good read, I would suggested, easy. 1614 01:13:14,479 --> 01:13:17,360 Speaker 3: It'll take you Patriots fans take it down memory lane too. 1615 01:13:17,880 --> 01:13:19,680 Speaker 2: Yep, it's a good read. And like I said, I 1616 01:13:19,720 --> 01:13:22,160 Speaker 2: won't give away his conclusion, but you can probably guess 1617 01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:24,840 Speaker 2: what it was. But but it's good stuff. 1618 01:13:26,439 --> 01:13:28,479 Speaker 3: If you're listening to his interview, you wouldn't guess what 1619 01:13:28,560 --> 01:13:28,840 Speaker 3: it want. 1620 01:13:28,920 --> 01:13:34,840 Speaker 2: No, Yeah, Nate writes in from Connecticut. He's not calling in. 1621 01:13:35,360 --> 01:13:37,640 Speaker 2: He says, I'm emailing because the phone lines have been 1622 01:13:37,680 --> 01:13:39,679 Speaker 2: down for me for some reason. I was really committed 1623 01:13:39,680 --> 01:13:41,720 Speaker 2: to getting a calling to tell you guys, I'm going 1624 01:13:41,800 --> 01:13:44,360 Speaker 2: back to school tomorrow and will be unable to call 1625 01:13:44,439 --> 01:13:47,160 Speaker 2: in anymore unless I am sick on Tuesday or Thursday. 1626 01:13:47,400 --> 01:13:49,679 Speaker 3: I just assumed his mother has him on punishment. Yeah, 1627 01:13:49,720 --> 01:13:51,240 Speaker 3: he's not allowed to use his phone. 1628 01:13:51,360 --> 01:13:54,640 Speaker 2: My hopefully not. Final question for you guys is what 1629 01:13:54,800 --> 01:13:57,320 Speaker 2: do you guys think of the Jacoby Myers trade request. 1630 01:13:57,400 --> 01:13:59,960 Speaker 2: The big pattern we've noticed is when you request a trade, 1631 01:14:00,240 --> 01:14:03,320 Speaker 2: you get paid. Is Jacoby looking to get paid or 1632 01:14:03,360 --> 01:14:05,200 Speaker 2: does he really not want to be in the situation. 1633 01:14:05,360 --> 01:14:08,719 Speaker 2: He's been in Vegas for the last few years. I'd 1634 01:14:08,760 --> 01:14:10,680 Speaker 2: love to have him back in New England. He was 1635 01:14:10,840 --> 01:14:13,080 Speaker 2: very productive and him paired with May is a match 1636 01:14:13,120 --> 01:14:16,160 Speaker 2: made in heaven. I think it's all about money. 1637 01:14:16,200 --> 01:14:18,680 Speaker 3: Well, he is looking to get paid. Yeah, yep, yeah. 1638 01:14:18,720 --> 01:14:21,920 Speaker 2: I don't think the conditions are like intolerable. I think 1639 01:14:21,960 --> 01:14:25,240 Speaker 2: he's just They've tried to talk and I guess it 1640 01:14:25,400 --> 01:14:27,760 Speaker 2: just hasn't gone anywhere. And he wants his money. 1641 01:14:28,160 --> 01:14:28,360 Speaker 8: Yeah. 1642 01:14:29,160 --> 01:14:31,720 Speaker 4: I think it's what's his stats, like he had a 1643 01:14:31,760 --> 01:14:33,479 Speaker 4: thousand yards? I mean, he just he like. 1644 01:14:36,320 --> 01:14:37,800 Speaker 7: Twenty twenty one, twenty twenty two. 1645 01:14:37,840 --> 01:14:41,599 Speaker 9: I mean every quarterback that he's played with, he's been 1646 01:14:41,680 --> 01:14:43,560 Speaker 9: productive and you can't knock that. 1647 01:14:43,760 --> 01:14:45,280 Speaker 7: It's production is all the. 1648 01:14:45,320 --> 01:14:49,080 Speaker 3: Matters, player find space, does all those things. I'm Evan 1649 01:14:49,120 --> 01:14:50,559 Speaker 3: and I talked about it a little bit off air. 1650 01:14:51,680 --> 01:14:53,840 Speaker 3: I would take him back. I think he's a good 1651 01:14:53,880 --> 01:14:57,840 Speaker 3: player and I was very high on Jacoby Myers never 1652 01:14:57,920 --> 01:14:59,280 Speaker 3: wanted him to leave in the first place. 1653 01:14:59,360 --> 01:15:00,240 Speaker 4: I'm sure right on. 1654 01:15:00,360 --> 01:15:04,080 Speaker 3: I just feel I just feel like they have enough 1655 01:15:04,280 --> 01:15:07,160 Speaker 3: of those kinds of receivers, you know, and Diggs is 1656 01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:11,160 Speaker 3: obviously a higher end, you know, type of you know 1657 01:15:11,400 --> 01:15:15,880 Speaker 3: kind of zone beater find space, you know, versatile to 1658 01:15:15,920 --> 01:15:16,880 Speaker 3: beat Man and zone. 1659 01:15:16,920 --> 01:15:18,400 Speaker 7: He doesn't change the equation for the Patriot. 1660 01:15:18,400 --> 01:15:26,240 Speaker 3: He's got Douglas in the slot. You got everybody's favorite Chisholm, right, 1661 01:15:26,360 --> 01:15:28,479 Speaker 3: I mean another guy who finds space and you know, 1662 01:15:28,800 --> 01:15:32,320 Speaker 3: you know, creates separation, you know underneath. I just don't 1663 01:15:32,360 --> 01:15:33,599 Speaker 3: know how many of those guys you need. 1664 01:15:33,800 --> 01:15:39,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, if your response to this is that just take 1665 01:15:39,360 --> 01:15:42,679 Speaker 4: the talent and figure it out later, and I'd totally 1666 01:15:42,800 --> 01:15:45,519 Speaker 4: a fair take to have on it. But when you 1667 01:15:45,760 --> 01:15:49,759 Speaker 4: start of get into the minutia of it, Jacoby Myers 1668 01:15:49,840 --> 01:15:52,759 Speaker 4: is a Z receiver. Stefan Diggs is a C receiver. 1669 01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:55,519 Speaker 4: So if you trade for Jacoby Myers, one of those 1670 01:15:55,600 --> 01:15:58,680 Speaker 4: guys is playing out a position, and I don't know 1671 01:15:58,800 --> 01:16:02,439 Speaker 4: if they are, especially Digs at this point of his career. 1672 01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:05,000 Speaker 4: I don't know if he's going to be productive playing 1673 01:16:05,080 --> 01:16:07,280 Speaker 4: the X, like, I don't know if that's really going 1674 01:16:07,400 --> 01:16:08,160 Speaker 4: to be a good. 1675 01:16:08,080 --> 01:16:10,559 Speaker 3: Role for him. It's either Zo the slot, right, He's 1676 01:16:10,760 --> 01:16:12,000 Speaker 3: not an outside. 1677 01:16:11,880 --> 01:16:16,280 Speaker 4: Right, So if you put him at the X, how 1678 01:16:16,360 --> 01:16:18,639 Speaker 4: is Stefon Diggs really going to feel about that? Because 1679 01:16:18,800 --> 01:16:20,960 Speaker 4: now the targets are going to be funneled someplace else, 1680 01:16:21,720 --> 01:16:23,639 Speaker 4: and we'd all know that that role is the role 1681 01:16:23,680 --> 01:16:26,640 Speaker 4: that gets the high volume in this offense. Essentially, what 1682 01:16:26,680 --> 01:16:29,800 Speaker 4: I'm saying, they signed Digs to be Jacobe Myers right 1683 01:16:29,920 --> 01:16:34,360 Speaker 4: like that day. Once they have redundancy, they're overlapping receivers. 1684 01:16:34,439 --> 01:16:36,880 Speaker 4: So you could sit here and say, just take the 1685 01:16:37,439 --> 01:16:39,920 Speaker 4: good receiver and we'll figure out all these problems later. 1686 01:16:40,520 --> 01:16:43,560 Speaker 4: But I think it's more complicated than that with this 1687 01:16:43,760 --> 01:16:46,839 Speaker 4: particular receiver in this particular offense. 1688 01:16:46,960 --> 01:16:51,880 Speaker 2: So Richard and Attleborough along the Meyers trade rumor type 1689 01:16:51,880 --> 01:16:54,799 Speaker 2: of discussion, he says, I always felt that letting Jacoby 1690 01:16:54,920 --> 01:16:57,800 Speaker 2: go was a favorite Bill gave to Josh to help 1691 01:16:57,880 --> 01:17:01,200 Speaker 2: him in Las Vegas. I don't think it wasn't. No. 1692 01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:05,240 Speaker 2: He also wants to know has the Patriots considered creating 1693 01:17:05,280 --> 01:17:08,000 Speaker 2: an official discord Do you guys know what we're talking 1694 01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:09,120 Speaker 2: about the forums? 1695 01:17:09,439 --> 01:17:14,479 Speaker 4: Uh, we have not considered that, but maybe an offline conversation. 1696 01:17:14,520 --> 01:17:17,759 Speaker 2: I'm not surprised that you like discord. 1697 01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:22,680 Speaker 4: Discord's fun.

I remember saying 1760 01:20:26,120 --> 01:20:27,120 Speaker 3: that I don't either. 1761 01:20:27,360 --> 01:20:28,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, it sounds like you though. 1762 01:20:28,800 --> 01:20:31,360 Speaker 11: The second one was the conversation I think it was 1763 01:20:31,479 --> 01:20:35,720 Speaker 11: last week about manual transmission vehicles. Evan was saying that 1764 01:20:35,760 --> 01:20:40,160 Speaker 11: they still make manual transmission vehicles, which is true, and 1765 01:20:40,280 --> 01:20:42,120 Speaker 11: he said they're usually paddleshift. 1766 01:20:42,520 --> 01:20:46,120 Speaker 4: No, I said, now we've adapted to more paddle shifters 1767 01:20:46,360 --> 01:20:47,960 Speaker 4: on sports cars especially. 1768 01:20:49,000 --> 01:20:49,599 Speaker 8: Yeah. True. 1769 01:20:49,680 --> 01:20:52,080 Speaker 11: But the question was do they still have a clutch? 1770 01:20:52,160 --> 01:20:55,280 Speaker 11: He said, yeah, but they have paddle shift. There's taddle 1771 01:20:55,320 --> 01:20:57,640 Speaker 11: shifting cars. You don't use a clutch and a paddleship. 1772 01:20:57,720 --> 01:20:58,519 Speaker 10: That change here? 1773 01:20:59,360 --> 01:21:02,800 Speaker 3: Okay, wow, got me bo. 1774 01:21:04,000 --> 01:21:04,920 Speaker 10: I do have a question. 1775 01:21:05,240 --> 01:21:11,240 Speaker 11: Oh, yes, the Patriots start five and oh or oh 1776 01:21:11,360 --> 01:21:11,840 Speaker 11: and five? 1777 01:21:12,360 --> 01:21:13,160 Speaker 2: What's more likely? 1778 01:21:13,280 --> 01:21:16,479 Speaker 3: Better chance? And five? 1779 01:21:16,560 --> 01:21:18,080 Speaker 2: I have to say that too. 1780 01:21:19,240 --> 01:21:19,439 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1781 01:21:19,920 --> 01:21:24,639 Speaker 3: Thanks, that's a real old school Andy Hart. Better chance 1782 01:21:24,640 --> 01:21:25,240 Speaker 3: what I like? 1783 01:21:25,320 --> 01:21:26,960 Speaker 7: Three and just paint the corner. 1784 01:21:27,080 --> 01:21:31,400 Speaker 3: That's obviously. I don't think it's very I don't think 1785 01:21:31,439 --> 01:21:34,800 Speaker 3: it's very like. I don't think it's very likely you're 1786 01:21:34,840 --> 01:21:35,519 Speaker 3: going on and five. 1787 01:21:35,600 --> 01:21:36,720 Speaker 2: But I. 1788 01:21:38,200 --> 01:21:38,519 Speaker 3: Don't know. 1789 01:21:41,520 --> 01:21:42,200 Speaker 7: What's more likely. 1790 01:21:42,360 --> 01:21:46,040 Speaker 3: They criticism, well, from certain was me. I'd be in 1791 01:21:46,120 --> 01:21:48,080 Speaker 3: the corner, in the fetal position at all times. 1792 01:21:48,400 --> 01:21:50,519 Speaker 4: That's not true. I take criticism. Well, listen to the 1793 01:21:50,600 --> 01:21:53,240 Speaker 4: open every show from certain people. You know what I mean? 1794 01:21:54,160 --> 01:21:57,599 Speaker 3: Yeah, certain people? Hey, you mean you people? 1795 01:21:57,920 --> 01:21:58,200 Speaker 7: People? 1796 01:21:59,760 --> 01:22:04,200 Speaker 2: Try Darius and Louisville has some major gripe. There's a 1797 01:22:04,240 --> 01:22:08,479 Speaker 2: lot of capital letters used in this email. Oh yeah, 1798 01:22:10,320 --> 01:22:12,800 Speaker 2: he says a couple of things. I have to say. First, 1799 01:22:13,320 --> 01:22:16,160 Speaker 2: can we stop comparing Vrabel and his staff to Mayo 1800 01:22:16,320 --> 01:22:19,080 Speaker 2: and his staff. We all know how inexperienced Mayo and 1801 01:22:19,160 --> 01:22:21,480 Speaker 2: his coaches worse, so it's not even a fair comparison. 1802 01:22:22,000 --> 01:22:23,960 Speaker 2: How about we compare what Rabel is doing to what 1803 01:22:24,080 --> 01:22:27,520 Speaker 2: Bill was doing for twenty years. That's a better comparison. 1804 01:22:27,600 --> 01:22:29,960 Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong, I believe in Vrabes, but to 1805 01:22:30,040 --> 01:22:32,360 Speaker 2: annoy him, the next best things and sliced bread just 1806 01:22:32,439 --> 01:22:35,280 Speaker 2: because he's doing better than Mayo is kind of ridiculous 1807 01:22:35,360 --> 01:22:38,479 Speaker 2: in my opinion. Second thing that grinds my gears is 1808 01:22:38,600 --> 01:22:41,760 Speaker 2: callers and emails that ask the same annoying question every time, 1809 01:22:42,200 --> 01:22:45,000 Speaker 2: especially if you guys just talked about it. Just pay 1810 01:22:45,040 --> 01:22:49,120 Speaker 2: attention to the show and your questions will be answered. Wow, 1811 01:22:49,360 --> 01:22:52,759 Speaker 2: there you go. Or if he's talking about anyone in particular. 1812 01:22:53,000 --> 01:22:56,760 Speaker 3: Some of the emails come in before we've actually talked 1813 01:22:56,800 --> 01:22:59,200 Speaker 3: about it. In defending of the email a little bit different, 1814 01:22:59,200 --> 01:23:02,000 Speaker 3: so you get like a question that maybe we we 1815 01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:05,519 Speaker 3: hadn't talked about when he sent the email in, And yeah, 1816 01:23:05,840 --> 01:23:07,280 Speaker 3: sometimes it can cross streams. 1817 01:23:08,000 --> 01:23:09,719 Speaker 9: I think it's a fair comparison that I was thinking 1818 01:23:09,720 --> 01:23:12,120 Speaker 9: a little bit about, you know, Bill saying when they 1819 01:23:12,120 --> 01:23:13,760 Speaker 9: won in two thousand and one, they didn't really feel 1820 01:23:13,800 --> 01:23:15,360 Speaker 9: like they had their team in place yet. 1821 01:23:15,439 --> 01:23:17,360 Speaker 7: And you know, Paul, you mentioned some of the. 1822 01:23:17,479 --> 01:23:20,040 Speaker 9: Veterans that he brought in that second year his guys, 1823 01:23:20,280 --> 01:23:21,640 Speaker 9: and I think you've seen a little of that with 1824 01:23:21,880 --> 01:23:25,080 Speaker 9: Rabel bringing in Robert Splaine. You know, the guys that 1825 01:23:25,160 --> 01:23:27,120 Speaker 9: they know just feel like, well, Campbell was one of 1826 01:23:27,160 --> 01:23:28,560 Speaker 9: his guys, even though we didn't play for him. But 1827 01:23:28,960 --> 01:23:30,760 Speaker 9: I think you see some of the similar things, they're 1828 01:23:30,760 --> 01:23:32,200 Speaker 9: still gonna have to you know, I use the example 1829 01:23:32,240 --> 01:23:35,040 Speaker 9: of a Sante Samuel. Now you know, year three four, 1830 01:23:35,800 --> 01:23:37,920 Speaker 9: maybe you have a third or fourth round cornerback waiting 1831 01:23:37,960 --> 01:23:38,960 Speaker 9: in the wings that you know, you're. 1832 01:23:39,200 --> 01:23:42,760 Speaker 3: Just calling Super Bowl. I'm not saying drafted. Will Care 1833 01:23:43,560 --> 01:23:47,519 Speaker 3: been drafted, Matt. I'm not saying I've left. I'm just 1834 01:23:47,640 --> 01:23:50,160 Speaker 3: I'm not saying. I'm just saying, you know, Anthony Pleasant 1835 01:23:50,240 --> 01:23:55,360 Speaker 3: and Stefan Diegsteon Branch, Roman, Pfeiffer, Brobby Harnts, Robert Slaine. 1836 01:23:55,040 --> 01:23:55,559 Speaker 2: Do the math. 1837 01:23:55,920 --> 01:23:57,240 Speaker 7: I mean, come on, win. 1838 01:23:58,200 --> 01:24:00,920 Speaker 2: Trevor writes in we spent so much time in the 1839 01:24:00,960 --> 01:24:03,760 Speaker 2: offseason talking about wide receiver and while we do still 1840 01:24:03,840 --> 01:24:06,200 Speaker 2: need a true elite guy in the future, when looking 1841 01:24:06,240 --> 01:24:09,200 Speaker 2: at our roster, it might be our deepest position. Paul 1842 01:24:09,280 --> 01:24:12,040 Speaker 2: will laugh, but Chisholm is one of the few guys 1843 01:24:12,080 --> 01:24:16,240 Speaker 2: who went out I hearn a spot the future. Paul, Well, 1844 01:24:16,320 --> 01:24:18,360 Speaker 2: I'll read that again since I was interrupted. 1845 01:24:18,880 --> 01:24:19,479 Speaker 1: Paul will laugh. 1846 01:24:19,560 --> 01:24:21,280 Speaker 2: But Chisholm is one of the few guys who went 1847 01:24:21,360 --> 01:24:24,759 Speaker 2: out and earned a spot. And then Booty Hollins Douglas Diggs. 1848 01:24:24,800 --> 01:24:27,839 Speaker 2: Williams is probably the only room I don't feel terrible 1849 01:24:28,160 --> 01:24:30,720 Speaker 2: about our fifth guy seeing the field. Funny how that 1850 01:24:30,880 --> 01:24:32,800 Speaker 2: worked out so. 1851 01:24:33,120 --> 01:24:35,400 Speaker 3: Real as quick though Kyle Williams is the fifth guy. 1852 01:24:35,760 --> 01:24:37,160 Speaker 7: Kyle was back at practice. 1853 01:24:38,320 --> 01:24:40,000 Speaker 4: Would I would sort of agree. 1854 01:24:40,520 --> 01:24:43,280 Speaker 3: I think, like, I just don't feel great about the 1855 01:24:43,320 --> 01:24:43,680 Speaker 3: first three. 1856 01:24:44,400 --> 01:24:46,360 Speaker 4: The bar the bar was on the floor, like, let's 1857 01:24:46,439 --> 01:24:50,960 Speaker 4: not get it twisted. But at the same time, I 1858 01:24:51,080 --> 01:24:52,560 Speaker 4: kind of like the mix that they have, Like I 1859 01:24:53,160 --> 01:24:55,400 Speaker 4: at least want to see what it looks like. I 1860 01:24:55,760 --> 01:24:57,160 Speaker 4: but like, I kind of like the mix that they 1861 01:24:57,240 --> 01:24:58,400 Speaker 4: have now going. 1862 01:24:58,400 --> 01:25:00,200 Speaker 3: To be like Drake made to me, it's a going 1863 01:25:00,240 --> 01:25:01,160 Speaker 3: to be about digs. 1864 01:25:01,080 --> 01:25:03,519 Speaker 4: If you can go out there and like, you know, 1865 01:25:04,240 --> 01:25:07,160 Speaker 4: if Terry McLaurin actually got traded, like obviously you would 1866 01:25:07,200 --> 01:25:09,559 Speaker 4: want that type of player to add to this room. 1867 01:25:09,640 --> 01:25:12,800 Speaker 4: But we were talking about Jacobe Myers a little while ago. 1868 01:25:14,000 --> 01:25:15,360 Speaker 4: I kind of want to see what it looks like 1869 01:25:15,439 --> 01:25:17,519 Speaker 4: with these four or five guys, because I do think 1870 01:25:17,560 --> 01:25:20,280 Speaker 4: they compliment each other pretty well, and they have different 1871 01:25:20,640 --> 01:25:23,160 Speaker 4: body types that can kind of you know, mix and 1872 01:25:23,240 --> 01:25:25,960 Speaker 4: match a little bit. So again, I know the bar 1873 01:25:26,120 --> 01:25:28,639 Speaker 4: wasn't very high, but this is one of the better 1874 01:25:28,760 --> 01:25:29,880 Speaker 4: rooms that they've had in a while. 1875 01:25:30,240 --> 01:25:32,880 Speaker 2: So we talked a little bit about how much or 1876 01:25:32,880 --> 01:25:38,640 Speaker 2: a little you can glean from preseason. But are there 1877 01:25:38,720 --> 01:25:42,000 Speaker 2: any indications that Josh McDaniels is going to get be 1878 01:25:42,120 --> 01:25:44,800 Speaker 2: able to scheme guys open, like. 1879 01:25:44,920 --> 01:25:46,000 Speaker 3: Man, I think so any better? 1880 01:25:46,200 --> 01:25:50,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, but like we do we get that indication preseason 1881 01:25:50,200 --> 01:25:52,840 Speaker 2: because I saw some guys like like whether or not 1882 01:25:52,960 --> 01:25:55,360 Speaker 2: Drake sees them or not is a different quest. Minnesota, 1883 01:25:55,680 --> 01:25:57,040 Speaker 2: we saw guys get open. 1884 01:25:57,200 --> 01:26:00,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, taking the joint practices more, you can see that 1885 01:26:00,200 --> 01:26:02,439 Speaker 4: kind of stuff because they're they're not they're not going 1886 01:26:02,520 --> 01:26:04,680 Speaker 4: to show very much on the preseason tape because they 1887 01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:06,280 Speaker 4: don't want to put it on film what they're what 1888 01:26:06,400 --> 01:26:09,519 Speaker 4: they're doing. But in the in the joint practices, especially 1889 01:26:09,560 --> 01:26:12,120 Speaker 4: against the Vikings, I think they did scheme some stuff open. 1890 01:26:12,880 --> 01:26:15,479 Speaker 4: Certainly like the one to Trayvon Henderson at the end 1891 01:26:15,479 --> 01:26:17,639 Speaker 4: of the day, one that everybody's talked about for two weeks. 1892 01:26:17,760 --> 01:26:18,200 Speaker 3: I saw that. 1893 01:26:18,360 --> 01:26:21,439 Speaker 4: Yeah, that one, That one was definitely maybe you know, 1894 01:26:21,560 --> 01:26:24,280 Speaker 4: sort of like a pick wheel like rub concept that 1895 01:26:24,320 --> 01:26:26,880 Speaker 4: they kind of schemed him open on. So maybe a 1896 01:26:26,920 --> 01:26:31,320 Speaker 4: little bit, but I I still think that That's always 1897 01:26:31,360 --> 01:26:33,400 Speaker 4: been a strength of Josh's, Like I've never really had 1898 01:26:33,439 --> 01:26:36,439 Speaker 4: any concern and that he would be able to dress 1899 01:26:36,479 --> 01:26:39,639 Speaker 4: it up and try to get guys open. Yeah, i'd 1900 01:26:39,680 --> 01:26:40,000 Speaker 4: say too. 1901 01:26:40,160 --> 01:26:42,120 Speaker 9: Just I think Evan said it a lot, but I 1902 01:26:42,240 --> 01:26:45,320 Speaker 9: just to underline it, I think Diggs has shown like, yeah, 1903 01:26:45,439 --> 01:26:47,080 Speaker 9: when I want to, I'll be able to. But I'm 1904 01:26:47,120 --> 01:26:49,759 Speaker 9: not going to like go out here and leave everything 1905 01:26:49,840 --> 01:26:51,760 Speaker 9: I've got on the field in a joint practice or 1906 01:26:51,800 --> 01:26:53,720 Speaker 9: in a day in shells out here. So that's what 1907 01:26:53,840 --> 01:26:56,679 Speaker 9: I'm excited to see is what is Stefan Diggs fully 1908 01:26:56,800 --> 01:26:58,519 Speaker 9: integrated into this offense with a game. 1909 01:26:59,240 --> 01:27:02,080 Speaker 3: You know, a reasonable fact similar of what Digs has been. 1910 01:27:02,320 --> 01:27:05,839 Speaker 3: Then I would agree with everybody's optimism the wide receivers. 1911 01:27:05,880 --> 01:27:07,920 Speaker 3: If not, then you have the same guys that you've had. 1912 01:27:08,080 --> 01:27:10,360 Speaker 4: I don't know if opt like it's not. I understand 1913 01:27:10,400 --> 01:27:12,519 Speaker 4: that where they're at still at the talent level in 1914 01:27:12,560 --> 01:27:15,680 Speaker 4: the room, but I do feel more optimistic about this 1915 01:27:15,960 --> 01:27:17,960 Speaker 4: room compared but only. 1916 01:27:17,840 --> 01:27:20,840 Speaker 3: Because of dis Yeah, that's it, I mean, I I 1917 01:27:20,920 --> 01:27:23,000 Speaker 3: mean we might be playing to some An Daniels too. 1918 01:27:23,400 --> 01:27:26,960 Speaker 4: I think Diggs, I think Matt Collins, I thought what. 1919 01:27:28,800 --> 01:27:30,840 Speaker 2: Coach can't do it, well, he can can't do it 1920 01:27:30,920 --> 01:27:31,760 Speaker 2: for you, he can help. 1921 01:27:32,000 --> 01:27:33,800 Speaker 3: I mean, I know that everybody thinks that it's all 1922 01:27:33,840 --> 01:27:35,280 Speaker 3: about the coaches, but it's about town. 1923 01:27:36,840 --> 01:27:37,840 Speaker 7: Garry Myers didn't think that. 1924 01:27:39,920 --> 01:27:43,080 Speaker 2: Let's see who's this Andrew in New Jersey wants to 1925 01:27:43,120 --> 01:27:45,400 Speaker 2: earn a T shirt, so let's see how he does. 1926 01:27:46,040 --> 01:27:48,160 Speaker 2: He says he's got a couple of trivia questions and 1927 01:27:48,600 --> 01:27:50,960 Speaker 2: if they're good, if people think they're good, maybe uh 1928 01:27:51,320 --> 01:27:54,720 Speaker 2: Matt will get a little effort. Last season, there was 1929 01:27:54,800 --> 01:27:58,360 Speaker 2: one game where Joey Slide missed his only field goal attempt. 1930 01:27:58,560 --> 01:28:02,719 Speaker 2: What team was that against? Not an extra point shoot? 1931 01:28:04,920 --> 01:28:07,360 Speaker 7: That's been lost in the sense of time, Tennessee. 1932 01:28:08,160 --> 01:28:11,280 Speaker 3: No, no, no, I don't say I have no idea 1933 01:28:11,680 --> 01:28:15,000 Speaker 3: the Jets, But like he was just one. He missed 1934 01:28:15,000 --> 01:28:16,320 Speaker 3: more than one field goal, right. 1935 01:28:17,400 --> 01:28:19,640 Speaker 2: I guess maybe he means that in the game he 1936 01:28:19,720 --> 01:28:23,639 Speaker 2: only had one it was and he missed it again. 1937 01:28:23,760 --> 01:28:26,000 Speaker 2: You gotta gotta word our questions better. 1938 01:28:26,040 --> 01:28:27,120 Speaker 3: Who do we play? Last year? 1939 01:28:28,160 --> 01:28:33,439 Speaker 2: The answer was Miami Dolphins in Week twelve? You remember that, No, 1940 01:28:33,720 --> 01:28:38,160 Speaker 2: I don't wow harder question. We didn't get that. 1941 01:28:38,160 --> 01:28:39,920 Speaker 3: One, right, So it was twelve years Ago, I might 1942 01:28:39,960 --> 01:28:40,720 Speaker 3: have been able to get it. 1943 01:28:41,040 --> 01:28:44,439 Speaker 2: Joey Slide missed seven field goals, not extra points. What 1944 01:28:44,600 --> 01:28:46,720 Speaker 2: teams were they against, Well, we didn't get one of them. 1945 01:28:48,680 --> 01:28:53,439 Speaker 2: Missed uh Bara Tennessee Seattle in week two, we missed one, 1946 01:28:53,520 --> 01:28:58,120 Speaker 2: Miami Week five, he missed one Tennessee Week nine, Miami 1947 01:28:58,240 --> 01:28:58,719 Speaker 2: week twelve. 1948 01:28:58,840 --> 01:29:02,160 Speaker 3: To have committed to memory individual missiter, Well, he just 1949 01:29:02,240 --> 01:29:02,960 Speaker 3: wants a T shirt. 1950 01:29:03,120 --> 01:29:06,800 Speaker 2: No T shirt for you, get Andrew in New Jersey 1951 01:29:06,800 --> 01:29:07,400 Speaker 2: a T shirt. 1952 01:29:08,240 --> 01:29:10,880 Speaker 4: Joey Slide, the kicker who's not on the team anymore. 1953 01:29:12,640 --> 01:29:18,200 Speaker 3: Booming, he kicked another sixty three yarder. I guess in 1954 01:29:18,280 --> 01:29:18,880 Speaker 3: the preseason. 1955 01:29:19,439 --> 01:29:22,519 Speaker 4: That's like everybody's making sixty three yarders now. It's the 1956 01:29:22,680 --> 01:29:25,479 Speaker 4: thing that is for the guy who's the guy on 1957 01:29:25,560 --> 01:29:29,600 Speaker 4: the Cowboys. I can't Brandon Aubrey literally kicking from the 1958 01:29:29,640 --> 01:29:30,880 Speaker 4: other side of the fifty. 1959 01:29:31,000 --> 01:29:34,639 Speaker 3: Well, the guy from Jackson seventy yard that's well into 1960 01:29:34,720 --> 01:29:35,280 Speaker 3: the other side. 1961 01:29:35,880 --> 01:29:39,720 Speaker 4: It's it's crazy like all these kickers these days there 1962 01:29:39,880 --> 01:29:43,479 Speaker 4: are kicking from from sixty plus now. 1963 01:29:45,400 --> 01:29:52,040 Speaker 2: Adam in down from California. Uh, Deny michel He says, 1964 01:29:52,080 --> 01:29:55,760 Speaker 2: I think it's funny. On the twenty twenty fourth draft. 1965 01:29:55,840 --> 01:29:59,120 Speaker 2: You guys played a game of would you rather maybe 1966 01:29:59,200 --> 01:30:01,240 Speaker 2: the guy in the rest the class amiss or May 1967 01:30:01,400 --> 01:30:04,120 Speaker 2: bust and hit on the rest of the class. We 1968 01:30:04,200 --> 01:30:07,519 Speaker 2: all can agree we are hoping May's the guy. Yeah, 1969 01:30:07,680 --> 01:30:08,240 Speaker 2: that is true. 1970 01:30:08,800 --> 01:30:09,920 Speaker 3: I do remember playing that. 1971 01:30:10,200 --> 01:30:13,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, it is crazy that, out of everything that went 1972 01:30:14,040 --> 01:30:17,519 Speaker 4: wrong last year, if May ends up being what we 1973 01:30:17,600 --> 01:30:20,960 Speaker 4: all think he's going to be, they somehow got that right, 1974 01:30:21,000 --> 01:30:23,880 Speaker 4: which is probably the hardest part to get right. And 1975 01:30:24,000 --> 01:30:27,200 Speaker 4: they not only from an evaluation standpoint, because that part 1976 01:30:27,280 --> 01:30:30,840 Speaker 4: was probably pretty easy, but the development standpoint, I think 1977 01:30:30,880 --> 01:30:32,720 Speaker 4: they did a nice job with Drake May. 1978 01:30:32,840 --> 01:30:37,439 Speaker 3: That's why I sort of I pushed back a little 1979 01:30:37,439 --> 01:30:39,479 Speaker 3: bit on how bad the coaching was because I do 1980 01:30:39,640 --> 01:30:41,400 Speaker 3: think that Alex van Pelt did a good job with 1981 01:30:41,520 --> 01:30:44,680 Speaker 3: Drake May, and I saw some examples. Now, did you 1982 01:30:44,760 --> 01:30:47,320 Speaker 3: do a good job with, you know, overcoming the offensive line. No, 1983 01:30:47,640 --> 01:30:50,360 Speaker 3: they didn't. They insisted on just doing it the same 1984 01:30:50,439 --> 01:30:52,559 Speaker 3: way all the time and never doing anything to help 1985 01:30:52,640 --> 01:30:55,639 Speaker 3: those tackles. But I do think they schemed guys open 1986 01:30:55,720 --> 01:30:57,679 Speaker 3: for Drake May and gave him a lot of easy throws, 1987 01:30:57,760 --> 01:31:01,080 Speaker 3: and I think they they brought up along pretty well. 1988 01:31:01,120 --> 01:31:03,200 Speaker 3: And I think he did develop a little Van Russiam. 1989 01:31:03,400 --> 01:31:05,799 Speaker 4: They brought him, they brought him along well. His mechanics 1990 01:31:05,880 --> 01:31:09,639 Speaker 4: and his footwork improved under Alex van Pelt. Now Vampel 1991 01:31:09,720 --> 01:31:12,120 Speaker 4: is a great quarterback coach. Maybe I think that's what 1992 01:31:12,280 --> 01:31:13,479 Speaker 4: we really are getting out of that. 1993 01:31:13,640 --> 01:31:13,960 Speaker 8: I don't know. 1994 01:31:14,080 --> 01:31:16,639 Speaker 3: I think you did a good job, you know him individual. 1995 01:31:16,680 --> 01:31:19,040 Speaker 3: I think, do you have any you have breaking news? 1996 01:31:19,280 --> 01:31:21,240 Speaker 3: Just Taylor Swift and well you were looking at the phone. 1997 01:31:21,240 --> 01:31:22,599 Speaker 3: I thought maybe you had a little suffer. 1998 01:31:22,840 --> 01:31:25,400 Speaker 7: Good for them, two happy kids. Good luck. 1999 01:31:25,680 --> 01:31:27,200 Speaker 3: I don't know how they'll be able to make ends me. 2000 01:31:27,640 --> 01:31:32,240 Speaker 3: Those two weddings are expensive, bro, but the chiefs Dyna. 2001 01:31:32,800 --> 01:31:35,040 Speaker 2: I'm glad to know that it was for real. Like 2002 01:31:35,160 --> 01:31:37,320 Speaker 2: I thought, maybe, oh this is all, But. 2003 01:31:37,600 --> 01:31:41,000 Speaker 3: You didn't really buy into that whole the NFL created. 2004 01:31:40,760 --> 01:31:44,240 Speaker 2: Not the NFL, but like her, you know her marketing. 2005 01:31:44,280 --> 01:31:46,559 Speaker 3: I mean the first year when they were together, people 2006 01:31:46,600 --> 01:31:48,960 Speaker 3: thought for sure it was like an NFL conspiracy. 2007 01:31:49,479 --> 01:31:52,000 Speaker 2: The NFL doesn't tell Taylor Swift what to do, right. 2008 01:31:52,240 --> 01:31:54,439 Speaker 9: Well, I'm just worried now that she's in love, if 2009 01:31:54,479 --> 01:31:56,120 Speaker 9: she doesn't have the same kind of turmoil in. 2010 01:31:56,160 --> 01:31:58,679 Speaker 7: Her life to write the great poetry that, she writes, 2011 01:31:58,800 --> 01:31:59,600 Speaker 7: you know, and just. 2012 01:31:59,560 --> 01:32:02,559 Speaker 9: Looking for what they when she starts having babies, well 2013 01:32:02,720 --> 01:32:04,400 Speaker 9: I'm saying, like, I mean, I'm not gonna wish a 2014 01:32:04,439 --> 01:32:07,599 Speaker 9: divorce upon them, but divorce be some good information, good 2015 01:32:07,720 --> 01:32:09,160 Speaker 9: good inspiration for Taylor. 2016 01:32:09,200 --> 01:32:13,720 Speaker 4: If that were to happen, Taylor Army is gonna come 2017 01:32:13,800 --> 01:32:15,960 Speaker 4: after me because Taylor Swift takes. 2018 01:32:16,760 --> 01:32:19,920 Speaker 3: Do they all like like old school chauvinistic of you, like, 2019 01:32:20,000 --> 01:32:22,559 Speaker 3: when she starts having babies, She's gonna have babies. 2020 01:32:22,840 --> 01:32:23,719 Speaker 2: She's gonna have babies. 2021 01:32:24,200 --> 01:32:25,200 Speaker 3: But if she doesn't want to. 2022 01:32:25,640 --> 01:32:27,080 Speaker 2: She doesn't want to, she won't have them. But I 2023 01:32:27,120 --> 01:32:27,679 Speaker 2: think she will. 2024 01:32:27,800 --> 01:32:30,920 Speaker 7: I mean, Jason Kes got like four daughters, so they 2025 01:32:30,960 --> 01:32:33,600 Speaker 7: better get going. They want to balance that off a little. 2026 01:32:33,320 --> 01:32:36,639 Speaker 2: Bit because Mama Kelsey will want cousins. 2027 01:32:37,240 --> 01:32:39,720 Speaker 7: She has grant she got all those daughters, granddaughters. She 2028 01:32:39,800 --> 01:32:42,480 Speaker 7: needs some sons. Quantie Swift, Frank. 2029 01:32:42,680 --> 01:32:46,000 Speaker 2: Franklin, and Baltimore writes in who among these two receivers 2030 01:32:46,080 --> 01:32:48,680 Speaker 2: do you think will benefit more from McDaniel's scheme and 2031 01:32:49,439 --> 01:32:53,720 Speaker 2: the influx of better talent digs Williams Hollins provided better 2032 01:32:53,760 --> 01:32:57,040 Speaker 2: spacing to Marrio, Douglas, Okashawan Boody As a follow up, 2033 01:32:57,520 --> 01:33:00,519 Speaker 2: which of these do you think hasn't made been made 2034 01:33:00,600 --> 01:33:03,479 Speaker 2: redundant with the Patriots offseason editions? So to marry we're 2035 01:33:03,479 --> 01:33:07,040 Speaker 2: talking about Pop and Booty here, Which which benefits the 2036 01:33:07,120 --> 01:33:10,920 Speaker 2: most from McDaniels and digs and better receivers. 2037 01:33:10,479 --> 01:33:11,519 Speaker 3: Around Pop Pop? 2038 01:33:11,600 --> 01:33:12,160 Speaker 4: Not even close? 2039 01:33:12,400 --> 01:33:13,040 Speaker 2: Not close. 2040 01:33:13,120 --> 01:33:16,840 Speaker 7: Yeah, boy, Booty's going to be relegated to not that much. 2041 01:33:17,080 --> 01:33:17,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. 2042 01:33:17,280 --> 01:33:19,560 Speaker 9: I think he's going to play a role, yeah, the 2043 01:33:19,640 --> 01:33:22,559 Speaker 9: sacrificial X because he going to lose that role to Hollins. 2044 01:33:22,640 --> 01:33:23,559 Speaker 2: He might. I think. 2045 01:33:23,600 --> 01:33:26,320 Speaker 9: I think that's a to me that's fluid between those 2046 01:33:26,320 --> 01:33:29,479 Speaker 9: two and in a perfect world, that's Kyle Williams emerges 2047 01:33:29,560 --> 01:33:31,360 Speaker 9: into that role full time and then they could maybe. 2048 01:33:31,640 --> 01:33:32,800 Speaker 7: I mean, I don't know, V what do you think 2049 01:33:32,840 --> 01:33:35,000 Speaker 7: do you think that that role is just always going 2050 01:33:35,080 --> 01:33:36,600 Speaker 7: to be? This is kind of what it is? Or 2051 01:33:37,360 --> 01:33:38,439 Speaker 7: like when Randy Moss came in. 2052 01:33:38,439 --> 01:33:40,679 Speaker 9: Twenty two thousand and seven, we have a special player 2053 01:33:40,760 --> 01:33:42,120 Speaker 9: now this extreme example, but. 2054 01:33:42,479 --> 01:33:44,439 Speaker 7: I think we have a special player here.

I mean, what do you do? 2228 01:42:00,160 --> 01:42:00,320 Speaker 12: You know? 2229 01:42:00,920 --> 01:42:03,960 Speaker 4: Chip them double chip, send waves. 2230 01:42:04,280 --> 01:42:06,679 Speaker 7: Dan Kimmell had like eleven touchdowns in his career. 2231 01:42:07,400 --> 01:42:09,320 Speaker 3: Really that has so that's wrong? 2232 01:42:09,840 --> 01:42:14,000 Speaker 7: Yeah. Yeah. Dan Kimmel's also throw it was wrong anyway, 2233 01:42:14,160 --> 01:42:15,120 Speaker 7: just three days older than me. 2234 01:42:15,360 --> 01:42:17,559 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, because it was Dicka Like never mind. 2235 01:42:20,280 --> 01:42:22,200 Speaker 2: Sweet kid rights. It haven't heard from him in a 2236 01:42:22,280 --> 01:42:26,360 Speaker 2: long time now. Melvin and Tennessee. I spent the summer 2237 01:42:26,439 --> 01:42:29,000 Speaker 2: studying the English language, so that I can sound smarter. 2238 01:42:29,320 --> 01:42:33,120 Speaker 2: So far, I've learned three new words. I don't know 2239 01:42:33,160 --> 01:42:35,920 Speaker 2: what those words are though yet. Anyway, how do you 2240 01:42:36,000 --> 01:42:38,680 Speaker 2: feel about the backup quarterback position for a team that 2241 01:42:38,840 --> 01:42:41,240 Speaker 2: might be on the verge of making the playoffs? I 2242 01:42:41,360 --> 01:42:42,920 Speaker 2: hope they can pull out a game or two of 2243 01:42:43,040 --> 01:42:46,360 Speaker 2: maya sideline, that brief period could swing things. 2244 01:42:48,520 --> 01:42:51,320 Speaker 3: I have a question that's kind of related to that, 2245 01:42:52,000 --> 01:42:55,840 Speaker 3: but not necessarily for the same reasons. Do you think 2246 01:42:56,320 --> 01:42:59,479 Speaker 3: having a quality backup quarterback is more important if you 2247 01:43:00,280 --> 01:43:02,160 Speaker 3: to be a good team, then it would be if 2248 01:43:02,200 --> 01:43:03,439 Speaker 3: you're just trying to rebuild. 2249 01:43:04,920 --> 01:43:08,599 Speaker 2: No, I would say that again, is it more than. 2250 01:43:08,840 --> 01:43:11,320 Speaker 3: Melvine was made a point to say for a team 2251 01:43:11,400 --> 01:43:13,439 Speaker 3: that is on the verge of making the playoffs? Is 2252 01:43:13,520 --> 01:43:15,559 Speaker 3: that Does that make it more pressing that you don't 2253 01:43:15,560 --> 01:43:20,200 Speaker 3: feel great about the backup quarterback or you're not you 2254 01:43:20,240 --> 01:43:22,200 Speaker 3: don't want your starting quarterback to get hurt. No, but 2255 01:43:22,280 --> 01:43:23,839 Speaker 3: if you kind of think you're dead. 2256 01:43:23,760 --> 01:43:26,280 Speaker 2: If he's but but if he said, on the verge 2257 01:43:26,520 --> 01:43:29,360 Speaker 2: of making the playoffs, so one or two games could 2258 01:43:29,400 --> 01:43:32,680 Speaker 2: be the difference. So if May turns his ankle in 2259 01:43:32,760 --> 01:43:35,000 Speaker 2: the first quarter, do you have a guy who can 2260 01:43:35,080 --> 01:43:38,080 Speaker 2: come in and hope and win that game for it. 2261 01:43:38,200 --> 01:43:40,400 Speaker 3: My guess is if you're if you're just that kind 2262 01:43:40,439 --> 01:43:43,160 Speaker 3: of a team where you're a middling team but May 2263 01:43:43,280 --> 01:43:44,800 Speaker 3: is going to put you over the top and maybe 2264 01:43:44,840 --> 01:43:46,920 Speaker 3: get you into the playoffs, then you're not going to 2265 01:43:46,960 --> 01:43:48,400 Speaker 3: have a backup that's going to be able to do that. 2266 01:43:49,400 --> 01:43:51,920 Speaker 3: Whereas if you're right, Whereas if you're a great team, 2267 01:43:52,400 --> 01:43:56,200 Speaker 3: right and you're stacked and I lose my quarterback, all 2268 01:43:56,320 --> 01:43:58,200 Speaker 3: hope is not lost. So you said, the really good 2269 01:43:58,280 --> 01:43:59,680 Speaker 3: team and if I can get a guy that can 2270 01:43:59,720 --> 01:44:02,280 Speaker 3: go in there and keep the you know, train on 2271 01:44:02,320 --> 01:44:02,759 Speaker 3: the rings. 2272 01:44:03,000 --> 01:44:05,640 Speaker 2: So you say the backup wouldn't. It's not about the 2273 01:44:05,720 --> 01:44:08,280 Speaker 2: backup being good enough. It's the people around him with 2274 01:44:08,439 --> 01:44:09,960 Speaker 2: a backup more good enough. 2275 01:44:10,360 --> 01:44:12,400 Speaker 3: The better your team is, I think that that would 2276 01:44:12,439 --> 01:44:13,160 Speaker 3: be more important. 2277 01:44:13,880 --> 01:44:15,880 Speaker 2: It's a good point, Paul, Yeah, yeah, I get I 2278 01:44:16,000 --> 01:44:17,400 Speaker 2: get that reason. 2279 01:44:17,920 --> 01:44:19,600 Speaker 3: I would feel like if you if you think the 2280 01:44:19,680 --> 01:44:22,160 Speaker 3: Patriots are a borderline playoff team, it'd be hard to 2281 01:44:22,240 --> 01:44:24,400 Speaker 3: imagine that you're going to continue to be a playoff 2282 01:44:24,400 --> 01:44:29,320 Speaker 3: team if Drake Made doesn't play three games. Yeah, right, 2283 01:44:29,680 --> 01:44:32,040 Speaker 3: unless Drake May is just not not as good as 2284 01:44:32,080 --> 01:44:32,679 Speaker 3: we all think. 2285 01:44:32,880 --> 01:44:34,880 Speaker 7: Like, I don't even want to think that. 2286 01:44:37,240 --> 01:44:43,280 Speaker 3: The bottom line the bottom line for sweet Kid, and 2287 01:44:43,360 --> 01:44:46,280 Speaker 3: I think the whole panel here probably agrees they might 2288 01:44:46,960 --> 01:44:48,799 Speaker 3: they might be in the market for another quarterback. 2289 01:44:48,920 --> 01:44:51,439 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, they're definitely gonna have three. I mean, they 2290 01:44:51,479 --> 01:44:53,840 Speaker 4: probably signed one to the practice squad at the very least, 2291 01:44:53,920 --> 01:44:55,280 Speaker 4: like you can just fore. 2292 01:44:55,520 --> 01:44:57,800 Speaker 3: I think they're different things though, Like do you sign 2293 01:44:58,080 --> 01:45:01,080 Speaker 3: the guy for the practice squad to replaced Woldry, Yeah, 2294 01:45:01,160 --> 01:45:03,560 Speaker 3: you think you can get better, better developmental right? Or 2295 01:45:03,600 --> 01:45:04,960 Speaker 3: do you go to fred Route and get this? 2296 01:45:07,439 --> 01:45:11,040 Speaker 4: But I wouldn't be surprised like if like Tommy DeVito 2297 01:45:11,160 --> 01:45:14,080 Speaker 4: or Bailey's Appy's on a practice squad for a while. Yeah, Like, 2298 01:45:14,160 --> 01:45:16,240 Speaker 4: I don't think it's a guarantee that those guys are 2299 01:45:16,280 --> 01:45:18,280 Speaker 4: going to find fifty three in a roster spot. 2300 01:45:18,560 --> 01:45:20,920 Speaker 9: He's interesting that wolders they got rid of him last 2301 01:45:20,960 --> 01:45:22,599 Speaker 9: week and is there nothing there? 2302 01:45:22,760 --> 01:45:23,760 Speaker 7: Like what didn't he do? 2303 01:45:24,080 --> 01:45:26,120 Speaker 9: Did they just say, well, it's never going to happen 2304 01:45:26,160 --> 01:45:28,639 Speaker 9: with him, Like what's the line for making the roster 2305 01:45:28,800 --> 01:45:31,000 Speaker 9: as like a practice squad guy with a quarterback? 2306 01:45:31,200 --> 01:45:34,400 Speaker 2: I just think that he wasn't worth whether it's practice 2307 01:45:34,400 --> 01:45:35,559 Speaker 2: squad or else. 2308 01:45:36,080 --> 01:45:39,320 Speaker 9: Having a spot for an interesting evaluation, especially in the 2309 01:45:39,400 --> 01:45:41,439 Speaker 9: league where luckily now you're in a place where you 2310 01:45:41,479 --> 01:45:43,600 Speaker 9: feel like you have the quarterback for the moment. But 2311 01:45:44,400 --> 01:45:47,679 Speaker 9: I would always be looking for some kind of developmental talent, 2312 01:45:47,760 --> 01:45:49,839 Speaker 9: you know, some kind of guy just to continue. 2313 01:45:50,000 --> 01:45:52,080 Speaker 3: Was just talking about this on the Nowhere All Hill 2314 01:45:52,600 --> 01:45:55,519 Speaker 3: yesterday and I just looked at it. I mean, I 2315 01:45:55,760 --> 01:45:57,760 Speaker 3: saw the kid make some throws, and I don't think 2316 01:45:57,840 --> 01:46:02,080 Speaker 3: he's completely without the ability to pass. But we watched 2317 01:46:02,439 --> 01:46:07,120 Speaker 3: I think it was twenty practices altogether. He almost never 2318 01:46:07,200 --> 01:46:09,800 Speaker 3: got any reps y. Yeah, so that told you that 2319 01:46:09,880 --> 01:46:11,600 Speaker 3: they didn't really think, like, I don't know how that 2320 01:46:12,040 --> 01:46:14,080 Speaker 3: and some people, I'm not saying you guys fell into 2321 01:46:14,120 --> 01:46:15,840 Speaker 3: this character. I don't think you did. But some people 2322 01:46:15,880 --> 01:46:17,760 Speaker 3: were like, Wow, I'm really surprised they let him go 2323 01:46:17,880 --> 01:46:20,280 Speaker 3: so quickly. I'm like, they kind of told you what 2324 01:46:20,320 --> 01:46:22,600 Speaker 3: they thought about him all summer when he was watching. 2325 01:46:23,280 --> 01:46:26,400 Speaker 4: Especially those like the joint practices he got zero never 2326 01:46:26,479 --> 01:46:28,320 Speaker 4: All right, we got a minute left. 2327 01:46:28,400 --> 01:46:31,479 Speaker 2: Let's quickly get to some of our callers who have 2328 01:46:31,520 --> 01:46:37,960 Speaker 2: been holding on.
