It's unbelievable. The Patriots had their time. 15 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 1: It's our time, right, that's you got your one. Yeah, 16 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 1: this is Patriot's Unfiltered, fueled by Duncan. All right, Welcome 17 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 1: the Patriots Unfiltered. It's Thursday here at Child Stadium and uh, 18 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 1: we're preparing for the Jacksonville Jaguars to come and are 19 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 1: we They just keep putting people on that COVID list, 20 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: So I'm not sure if they're gonna be able to 21 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: field a team. I'm rooting for a forfeit at this point. 22 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 1: I think there two more starters this morning rooting for it. 23 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 1: I think twenty seven twenty seven total guys half the roster. 24 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: What are they doing? How are they going to put 25 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: a team out there? It's the week three colin Foxborough 26 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:42,759 Speaker 1: High to come and workout. Yeah. So I mean, even 27 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 1: with the new entry rules, if you get put on 28 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: the list today, right, I don't even think that's enough 29 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 1: time because it's five days, right, I think? So, I 30 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 1: mean I have lost track the protocols. What are the rules? 31 00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 1: What are the rules? I don't know. Yeah, and then 32 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: even then you still have to well I guess you. 33 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: You know, we were asking that question before, and I 34 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: was reading the memo and it said nothing about testing 35 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: negative to get back. It's as long as you're not 36 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 1: showing any symptoms after five days, you can come back. Yeah, 37 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: did you read them? One thing to point out to 38 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,799 Speaker 1: Matthew Chewdon is on the scheduled list of speakers for tomorrow, 39 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 1: So I don't know if that was inadvertent or what 40 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 1: but I mean that might be a good sign that 41 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 1: perhaps he will be back out there. Oh yeah, it's 42 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: all good. I'm feeling fine. That's pretty good. All right, 43 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 1: the COVID, that's pretty good from Jaguars. It's coming along. 44 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 1: You just can't move your lower lip right, your lower 45 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 1: job and you got it, your lower lip has to 46 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: kind of make a like a lower square, all right, 47 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: right right? Anyways, Yeah, so that's our COVID. There's our 48 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: COVID upbrade, Hey update. I feel like, do we need 49 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: a do we need a page on the website of 50 00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,080 Speaker 1: like the current COVID situation for every team that the 51 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: Patriots are about to play? It's crazy. I really do 52 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: wonder what they're gonna do. I mean, there's got to 53 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:07,239 Speaker 1: be some kind of discussion of it. I know that 54 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 1: they said no, we're scheduling no, no, no for forting 55 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 1: any of that stuff. But at what point is there 56 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: just not enough guys for them to realistically feel the 57 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: team or I need to play a guy at in 58 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: a position he's never plays. I know it sounds crazy, 59 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: but I could see a scenario this week where the 60 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 1: coach of the Jaguars calls Belichick and says, Look, we'll 61 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 1: go out there, but you know you gotta take it 62 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: easy on us. Yeah, you know, here, let's treat it 63 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: like a preseason game. Do you need to work on 64 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: something will help you, you know, like a joint practice. Yeah, 65 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: but can we borrow a couple of your players? But 66 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: like you know, we're just not going to be able 67 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: to put up a fight. Yeah, and it's really not 68 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: It's not really good for the Patriots either, Jack, if 69 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: it's some kind of weird game like that, Like I 70 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: feel like they need a game. It's good to get 71 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: on track and to play an actual football team. And 72 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: this is like scrimmage or right it? Can we play 73 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: seven on seven? Is that? Yeah? Because next next week's 74 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: gonna be a war? Do they even have enough for 75 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: seven on seven? I don't know, you know, tackles playing, 76 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: but I could see a conversation about you about not playing. 77 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: You mean, I don't know that's that what you're saying, 78 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: like a fourth day? I mean, forfeit doesn't benefit anybody. No, 79 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 1: But how I mean they literally twenty seven guys are 80 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: on their COVID list. Twenty seven. How are you gonna 81 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: how are you gonna feel to come any sort of 82 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: competitive to a more Browns and Titans missing in their games? 83 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: Were they really not really come on looking for who 84 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: said that? I was looking someone said something about the 85 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,359 Speaker 1: Browns if you add it up, maybe but one team 86 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: twenty seven? No, I mean this is COVID too. I 87 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 1: was being that was snark ultras a great white snark. Right. Yes, 88 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 1: those were injuries. That's there's difference between injuries and COVID. 89 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: But it's not it's not good. I mean Fursday, no, not, 90 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 1: what point do they have to make some kind of decision? Mean, no, 91 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: one's really talking about it right now, which seems like 92 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 1: he's day the Jags get like three more guys, three 93 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: more guys. I guess is like the was it thirteen 94 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: on Monday or something like that. My guess is they're 95 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: anticipating those guys playing, That would be my guess. Yeah, 96 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: that's why it hasn't really been anything. Suiting up playing 97 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,840 Speaker 1: is another thing. Yeah, But I mean even Kendrick Borne 98 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: talking earlier about his week last week of preparing virtually 99 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 1: and you know, being able to run, being able to 100 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: run a little bit after after he said his symptoms 101 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: kind of passed. I mean, so he did have some symptoms. Yeah, nothing, 102 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: he didn't say anything major. Is nothing major, But it 103 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: didn't sound like he had some some Wasn't it reported 104 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: that way? It wasn't. This is what and this is 105 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: fred and I's point. No, it was like the day 106 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 1: that Kendrick Bourne was put on COVID. Yeah, thirty two 107 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: seconds later, seventeen Patriots reporters told me he was asymptomatic. Right, 108 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 1: my wronggram you're right, right, yeah, yeah, oh once I 109 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: was feeling better, asymptomatic loosely defined. Right, This is why 110 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: I think it's we did and this is not a 111 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 1: shot of Kendrick Bourne. Kendrick Bourne did exactly what I 112 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: would do in Kendrick Bourne, spot right, do everything I 113 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: can to play in the game. That's what I would 114 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: do too. But this is an NFL thing. Yeah, Like basically, 115 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: you're leaving it up to people to tell you what 116 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 1: what's right and what's wrong. I like, and what's going 117 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: to happen more often than not. That's right. You got 118 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 1: a mess on your hands. They had a map on 119 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 1: the news last night of like, you know, the high 120 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: infected states. The entire United States was read, Yeah, the 121 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: entire United States. Yeah, it feels like this is COVID, 122 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 1: Like this is now the reality I told and I 123 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 1: told you the thing, you know, like people want to 124 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: make this out to be such a big deal, like 125 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 1: the vaxed unvaxed, And I told you the stats. There's 126 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: something like eighty seven vents in mass General Hospital.

Yeah. 128 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 1: And there's one guy who quote had so many other 129 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 1: things wrong with them that COVID's the least of his worries, 130 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: right right, that's the one that's vaccinated. Yeah. I mean 131 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: I think you know you can. You can make arguments 132 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: all you want. Everybody has their own personal choices to make, 133 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: and I respect personal choices, I really do. But it's like, 134 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: I don't know why you wouldn't try to do everything 135 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 1: you can to protect yourself.

Yeah, sure, 163 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: I liked it he as the video game and that 164 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,719 Speaker 1: that that's pretty popular. Yeah, I mean that is. I 165 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 1: mean he does already have something named after ye good point. Yeah, 166 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just thought, oh, that's different. I 167 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: hadn't thought of that. Yeah. I just like, like, rather 168 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 1: there's something new rather than renaming something that exists. I 169 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 1: just like the way the players talk, like, you know, 170 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: their reverence from Madden is because I want to get 171 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,599 Speaker 1: in the game, which kind of didn't really have anything Madden, right, Like, 172 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 1: there's so many things that. Yeah, I wonder like if 173 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: he looked at that in a little bitter sweet kind 174 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 1: of way, like this is great coach who was an innovative, 175 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: you know, broadcaster, and you know, this whole generation knows 176 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: him as the guy whose name is on a video game. Yeah, 177 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 1: but which I'm sure that he finds well down the 178 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: list of his accomplishment hope. So Yeah. But I think 179 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: also too though it's synonymous with football now, and that 180 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,199 Speaker 1: I think for that that you're you're getting kids like 181 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 1: my nine year old who Madden didn't really even know 182 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: what it was at first, And I think it's just 183 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: like any you know, analogies you can draw from other 184 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 1: people's careers, you know how they had like different careers 185 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:50,319 Speaker 1: like that, Like like Lombardi he was a coach and 186 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: then they named the trophy after him, but that he 187 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: was dead when they did that, you know what I mean, 188 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 1: And I think that's kind of why. Yeah, he died. 189 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,319 Speaker 1: He died fairly young, right, you know, so that was 190 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 1: kind of why. Like I'm wondering if there's other examples 191 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 1: of people that kind of reinvented themselves. How about Bob 192 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 1: what was he baseball? Pro baseball player and then he 193 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: became an actor and it's like comic actor whatever, you know, Yeah, 194 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: two different like career. I mean, had he not killed people, 195 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,599 Speaker 1: O J. Simpson might be one of those. Yeah, you know, 196 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,439 Speaker 1: make a gun. Kareem abdul Jabar a little bit. He 197 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 1: was a little bit. He had some some different things 198 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: that he did. I mean, there's a lot of going 199 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: into broadcasting and acting. Kareem was involved in a lot 200 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: of like you know, activist kind of stuff. He's very political. 201 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 1: But I don't know if that's what you're no, but 202 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: people don't know him that way, you know, like, yeah, 203 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,719 Speaker 1: like they still Madden kind of reinvented him. You know, 204 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: it wasn't like he was a broadcaster who was a coach. 205 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: He was a broadcaster, you know what I mean. It's 206 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,199 Speaker 1: it's like he became that well you know what, you know, 207 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,719 Speaker 1: the understood. You know, we can talk about this a 208 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,319 Speaker 1: little bit. But like I've always found fascinating all of 209 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 1: the former football players slash coaches that get into broadcasting. 210 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: They're all color analysts' right, Tony Romo, it's a quarterback. 211 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 1: Troy Aikman was a quarterback. John Madden was a coach. 212 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: Pat Smell is one of the great play by play 213 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,439 Speaker 1: voices ever, and he was he was a player. That's 214 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 1: a good one kicker. Yeah, yeah, that's right. Yeah, calling 215 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: him a kicker is disrespectful to Pat Summer. He kicked 216 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,719 Speaker 1: because he was the best at kicking. He did other 217 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,319 Speaker 1: things too. Back back at that day, it wasn't like 218 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,719 Speaker 1: you adding fifteen yards to yours by snack. It was 219 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:33,719 Speaker 1: the other way around, you, moron. It was tracing anyway. Um. Yeah, So, 220 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: but that's a good question. I mean, there's obviously such 221 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,079 Speaker 1: a large number of coaches that have gone on to 222 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: B and TV and color analysts. Just I'm trying to 223 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: rack my brain for guys that did something different and 224 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: really outside of that kind of Ted Williams, you know 225 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 1: he was like a cracker Jack air Force pilot. I 226 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: mean really good. He was. Oh he was, I mean 227 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 1: he was a star. I mean he was a hero 228 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: hero right, baseball playoff sleep and then he kind of 229 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 1: reinvented himself as he was a spokesman for the fishing. 230 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 1: You know, he used to fish with my grandfather. Yeah. 231 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: Oh really, wow, Please tell I know that he had 232 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,079 Speaker 1: a twenty eight to three shirts. I don't know that 233 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: his grandfather used to They all used Shakespeare rods. Yeah, 234 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 1: Ted william So, my grandfather was a longtime track coach 235 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: at Tufts Um from from the early thirties all the 236 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: way until he died in the early seventies, and he 237 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: developed a friendship with Ted Williams. There's um, there's some 238 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 1: interesting newspaper articles that I've dug up that it's my grandfather. 239 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 1: I never met him. He died before I was born, 240 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:38,719 Speaker 1: Clarence ding Do So the track of Tufts is named 241 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: after him. But they used to go him and Ted 242 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,959 Speaker 1: would go up to up to New Brunswick where my 243 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: grandfather did all the summers and Um, they would fish together, 244 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: fly fishing.

Um. So she was eccentric, but 274 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 1: it was a bizarre story that I never knew. But 275 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:10,439 Speaker 1: we have a lot of pictures of my grandfather with 276 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 1: Ted and wow, it's a random, random Boston sports thing. 277 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: That's that's pretty cool.

So, 285 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: and then there's also there's another cool article I found. 286 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 1: You go to newspapers dot com, you can do a 287 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: lot of searching. I found one that's like, you know, 288 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: Douso teaches the Red Sox how to run. So my 289 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: grandfather went down to Florida and was talking to them 290 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 1: about like speed and stuff. So yeah, it's it's he's 291 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 1: he's got a he's got a whole story. I've got 292 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 1: his whole all this. I gotta feel there's a lot 293 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 1: of stories that deuces and telling. I'm getting through them 294 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 1: slowly but surely. But that's one of the better ones. Yeah. 295 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 1: The other quick one, I'll tell abottom as if we 296 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: have a second. He also he dated an actress, one 297 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: of the first actresses, named Marilyn Miller, who was in 298 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 1: the Zigfield Follies and was one of the early stars 299 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: of films when films were more like we don't really know, 300 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: we don't have a sound yet, so they just kind 301 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 1: of sing. It'd be almost like a musical on stage. 302 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: So she was one of the first stars. Yeah, Marilyn Miller, 303 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 1: who actually Marilyn Monroe when she became an actress from 304 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: normal Gene took Marylyn because of Marilyn Miller. So going 305 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: through my grandfather's scrapbook, there's a picture of her just 306 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: like posing in the backyard, like you clicked it. And 307 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 1: then he had another ad that while he was at 308 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: tough coaching track, he was a school just a middle 309 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: school gym teacher in Stoughton. And so there's an article 310 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 1: from like nineteen thirty one in his scrapbook of like 311 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 1: Hollywood film star visits local teacher and so it talks 312 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: about Marilyn Miller coming to Stoughton, drop it into film 313 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: play into some theaters in Brockton, and you know, so 314 00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: he had cut it out, had like a picture of her, 315 00:15:58,840 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: you know. So it's like one of those kind of 316 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 1: weird things of my grandmother. But he dated this like 317 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 1: you know, famous film actress. I don't know how they 318 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 1: met or what they were friends from his georgetown. So 319 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: like the moral of those stories, you're kind of a 320 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: disappointment a family. I compared to him now, I mean 321 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 1: he did he did a lot of yeah, right, that 322 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 1: was my highlight. But he was a real good, real 323 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: good track runner. For a he was at Georgetown, he 324 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: was part of the two mile relay. He used to 325 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: run the final leg. A lot of stories in the 326 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: scrap book about his races and coming down to the 327 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: end and now he would always just kind of tough 328 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: it out. So, I mean, it was so cool when 329 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 1: I got the scrap books, I was able to go 330 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 1: through it. Do you have, like any of his fly 331 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: fishing gear? Do you have any? I'm not sure where 332 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 1: LODs are. My dad did have his rods for a while. 333 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 1: I think my aunt has them now after my grandmother 334 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: died in the mid nineties, but I have it, like 335 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 1: I have a lot of his like little keepsticks like 336 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: he's ring. And are there any like members of the 337 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 1: Ted Williams family that you guys are in touch or 338 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: are there anymore now? I mean John Henry died, she died, 339 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 1: Ted died. I mean I never um. You know, there's 340 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 1: one picture that my cousin got that's like my grandfather 341 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,159 Speaker 1: and Ted like arm around each other up in Canada 342 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 1: with like fishing rods. It's the really cool picture. So 343 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: he's got that one. I should ask him to take 344 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 1: a picture of it for me. Yeah. So getting back 345 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: to what we were talking about, is one of those 346 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 1: guys that whatever he did, he did it excellently, you know, 347 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 1: to a level of excellence. Yeah. Um, he was just 348 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:24,880 Speaker 1: that kind of guy. And I thought it was interesting 349 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: when Robert Kraft hired Bill Belichick. One of the first 350 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: things Bill did is he gave Robert a frame picture 351 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,640 Speaker 1: of Ted Williams at Babe Ruth, signed by both of them. 352 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 1: I mean, that's pretty cool. That is cool. You know, 353 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,440 Speaker 1: I wish I hadn't autograd the least thing I could 354 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,200 Speaker 1: get out of the whole seat rate. But yeah, he 355 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,679 Speaker 1: was Well. I got a feeling we got some good 356 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: offseason stories to talk about this year. Bring some. I'll 357 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: bring some stuff like stories. Yeah, old school Boston sports. 358 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 1: Yeah no, that's that's great. Right. What else? What were 359 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: we talking? Oh yeah, so so COVID, But we were 360 00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 1: just talking about other people besides John Madden basically reinvented 361 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 1: themselves and did whatever they did well. You know, I 362 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: mean I was gonna I was thinking about John Gruden 363 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,719 Speaker 1: a little bit. I know that too took a hard turn, um, 364 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 1: but you know, the work he kind of did with 365 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 1: the quarterback rooms and interviewing prospects, and when he was 366 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 1: kind of in that in between period, he kind of 367 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: kind of started to carve out a little bit of 368 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 1: a niche I think in terms of broadcasting, and I mean, 369 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 1: who knows a full heresy from him? Again? But who else? 370 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, tough question, all right, I don't 371 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 1: know if Paul Paul's just he has no no time 372 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: for any of this. He's just why I looked so disgusted. 373 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 1: I'm not disgusted. I found the Ted Williams thing is fascinating, Okay, 374 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 1: I'm a little disappointed that I'm just finding out about 375 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: it now. Three years I told you I didn't mention that. 376 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 1: I thought I told you that. I didn't even know, 377 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 1: like the fact that your grandfather's the track at Toughs 378 00:18:55,720 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 1: his named after that, I think, yeah, I told that, 379 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 1: told me that. Does Maz know that? I don't know 380 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,680 Speaker 1: if nineteen eighty nine I got the mug still the 381 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: dedication of the Clarence ding dou So tracks. So can 382 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:10,439 Speaker 1: you show up there and like, yeah, you know who 383 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 1: I am? I should? I should? And you just run 384 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,879 Speaker 1: there anytime I'm gonna do so. Yeah, No, he he 385 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: was there forever had a lot of a lot of 386 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 1: success there one. I mean he won a ton ton 387 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: Like his all time record was crazy and yeah he 388 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: just I mean he did it from nineteen thirty to 389 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 1: all the way to until he died in like seventy 390 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:31,880 Speaker 1: one or seventy two, Tony writes in stay tuned next 391 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 1: week for another exciting episode of This Is Your Life. Yeah, well, 392 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,680 Speaker 1: it's hard to come up with anything for this game 393 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: even if everybody was playing for Jacksonville, let alone all 394 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: the uncertainty around it. Yeah, so might apologize for not 395 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,200 Speaker 1: having you know, right, you know, the key to this 396 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 1: game is shut down. They gotta they gotta control Josh Allen. 397 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 1: Wait that was last week. No, this is a different 398 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: Josh Allen. I don't know if he's playing. This is 399 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 1: as this is almost worse than a preseason game. I 400 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,360 Speaker 1: think the key to this game is for the Patriots 401 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 1: to stay healthy. Yeah, and that's exactly what I was 402 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 1: thinking on the walk down here, being like, watch this 403 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 1: be the game where you just have to hammer all 404 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:09,719 Speaker 1: their backups and then like you just get one key 405 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 1: injury that screws you from Miami in the playoffs, Like 406 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 1: that would be the uh Yeah. The bigger thing to 407 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 1: me this weekend is what happens with the Raiders and 408 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. Does one of those teams lose take the 409 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,760 Speaker 1: pressure off the last week? Yeah, one eye on those throws. 410 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 1: But or does Atlanta knock off Buffalo? Yeah? Again, like 411 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 1: get you back into the division. I usually don't play 412 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 1: this game, but I'm in the mindset now where I 413 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: want that challenge of the last week. I wanted to 414 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 1: meet something. I want Miami to because I want to 415 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,439 Speaker 1: get prepped for the playoffs. I don't think right now 416 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 1: they're ready. If you lose, then you don't deserve to 417 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 1: be there. That's my point, you know. Let's I want 418 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 1: to be ready. I want to metal sharpened metal. Something 419 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: tells me that you won't be losing. And they you know, 420 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: they lose out on a playoff spot by a tiebreaker, 421 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: you'll be like, I'll be like, they didn't deserve it. No, 422 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 1: they didn't deserve it. You know. If that's the case, 423 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 1: I do think I don't want to go limping into 424 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:07,239 Speaker 1: the playoffs. I get what you're saying, and I think, um, 425 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: it is kind of going to that eighth team. Though 426 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 1: you look at it like in the AFC especially, there's 427 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: probably going to be a decent team left out, you know, 428 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 1: maybe a couple. And I think they're gonna look at 429 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,680 Speaker 1: this and like this is two years now. Yeah, like 430 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: just make it because I think it's not too long 431 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: ago where we're like, I can't believe, you know, an 432 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,880 Speaker 1: eight and eight or you know, a seven and nine 433 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 1: team has a chance to make the playoffs. You know 434 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 1: we can. That wasn't too long we were complaining that. 435 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 1: That's why teams were getting in, right, That's why it's 436 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 1: it's done like this. They did it the seventeenth game. 437 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 1: So it's not an eight and eight team anymore. It's 438 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: a nine and eight team, right, And and they add 439 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 1: the playoff team. Yeah. I just don't know. There could 440 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 1: be like an eight and nineteen the NFC that I 441 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 1: don't want to put too much on that Miami game, 442 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 1: and obviously the playoff game would mean more than that, 443 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 1: But I also think that, like, as much as a 444 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 1: playoff game will be great and a bron I still 445 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 1: think that somewhat the Miami game might be kind of 446 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 1: the barometer for me of this season of you know, 447 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 1: do you finish in third place? Do you beat a 448 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 1: team that is playing well and knows you're pretty well, 449 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,120 Speaker 1: and do you kind of correct what happened in week 450 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,439 Speaker 1: one or do you go down there and you kind 451 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: of feel like, yeah, we made the playoffs, but I 452 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,639 Speaker 1: don't know how much we progress. You really made it. 453 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,920 Speaker 1: It's kind of a similar end to the same last 454 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 1: couple of years. So that's what, like I said, A 455 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 1: huge game. That's why I want that game to mean something. 456 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 1: Yeah for both teams. Yeah, I mean I think it 457 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 1: will definitely mean something for Miami. Um, I'm not so 458 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:36,119 Speaker 1: sure that you think they're gonna be Tennessee Wow. But 459 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,199 Speaker 1: can they lose the Tennessee and they're out, well, they 460 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,959 Speaker 1: would need a Patriots lost to Jacksonville. Well, I mean 461 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 1: they're saying the same thing in Miami. They need to 462 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,640 Speaker 1: see what their team is because, let's face it, they 463 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 1: were the beneficiary of a schedule the same way the Patriots. Absolutely, 464 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 1: you know, so why do you think they won? Seven? 465 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 1: In a room? So their fans want to see how 466 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 1: good are we really? So let's beat Tennessee. They're a 467 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: good team. We're a good team. Let's see if we 468 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 1: can beat them. We think we're a good team. Let's 469 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 1: see if if they can win that game, then the 470 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,399 Speaker 1: last game means a lot for Miami. They can win 471 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 1: and be in, but I think they have to win both. 472 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 1: I don't think nine and eight's getting you a wild card. Yeah, 473 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 1: so that would be interesting. Then if the if the Raiders, 474 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 1: uh you know, were to lose to Indie and the 475 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,680 Speaker 1: Patriots win, they're in Miami wins, so they need to win. 476 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 1: Patriots don't really need to win, but it's about seating, right, 477 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 1: You get interesting stuff there. But I think that Miami 478 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 1: game there's I hope it means something because you know, 479 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 1: and then it's hard to read into it. Well, yeah, 480 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,359 Speaker 1: well the Patriots are probably gonna arrest their starters. They 481 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,119 Speaker 1: don't care. Yeah, they'd rather go to the fifth seeds 482 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: team than the third team. So I find it funny 483 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: that you feel that way because it sort of goes again. 484 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 1: I don't think you're wrong. I just think it goes 485 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 1: against what you normally say. Like when we talk about 486 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:52,119 Speaker 1: who you worried about, and they say anybody, You're like, 487 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 1: who cares? Like, like what the path is? I don't 488 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 1: care who they play? But yet now you don't want 489 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 1: to just make the playoffs. You want to have to 490 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 1: play tough team and prove your medal to get to 491 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:05,440 Speaker 1: the playoffs. Well, yeah, to me, that's different. You know. 492 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 1: It's like I don't care who we end up playing. 493 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,639 Speaker 1: I just want to be ready. Yeah, you know, I 494 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 1: don't feel like they're ready right now. Their mind's not 495 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 1: ready that I need to get their mind ready. And 496 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 1: I just think the team that they are, it's not 497 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 1: really It's like it's not really gonna matter who they play, 498 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,400 Speaker 1: Like they have to play good and if they don't, 499 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 1: then it doesn't matter. They're gonna live. And who knows 500 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: what gets you ready? Like in twenty eighteen, I would 501 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 1: have scoffed at that, like you beat the Bills and 502 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,159 Speaker 1: the Jets like this, that doesn't get you ready. But 503 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 1: it got them ready. They ended up playing their best 504 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:39,439 Speaker 1: football of the entire year in the playoffs. Yep, all right, 505 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna head up. All right, Duce is going to 506 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 1: practice a little misty out there? Yeah, better cover up. 507 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 1: It's continuing when miserable weather. Yeah, temperature went down a 508 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 1: little thirty seven degrees? Dude, is that all you have 509 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 1: as a little wind breaker? Yeah? Okay, all right, well 510 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,919 Speaker 1: all right, yeah, don't come in here sniffling and coffin 511 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:02,120 Speaker 1: and weezing. All right, I don't want you to catch 512 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 1: a chill. Ye got his little track win breaker, Yeah, Sunday. 513 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: By the way, if there is a game cloudy in 514 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 1: fifties right now, in fifties, yeah, I like the sound 515 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 1: of that. That's that's bombing. Yeah, unseasonably? When will likely 516 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: be our last home game? Yeah? Of the season? Likely? 517 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 1: I upsets, right, I don't know. If Atlanta beats Buffalo, 518 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: you're back in play, right, Yeah, we're back, baby. But 519 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 1: even if you get in as like the sixth seed 520 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 1: or whatever, if there's upsets in front of you, there's 521 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,360 Speaker 1: a slight chance you could get a home game. Yeah, 522 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:41,159 Speaker 1: very slight. Yeah, yeah, that ain't happening. But um, I 523 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,239 Speaker 1: just had something on my mind that I was gonna say, Oh, 524 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 1: did you happen to see that. Roethlisberger actually, for the 525 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 1: first time publicly made a mention of this being it. 526 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,680 Speaker 1: Oh no, he said he said this. I don't know 527 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 1: exactly what the quote is, but I think he said 528 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 1: it more than likely will be his final game in Hinesfield. 529 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 1: They played Monday night at Pittsburgh. Huh, And I know 530 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 1: that that's been out there. It's not new news, but 531 00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,680 Speaker 1: I think this is the first time he is publicly acknowledged. 532 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 1: So he's not saying he's retiring. He just doesn't think 533 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:12,680 Speaker 1: he's thinks it. Yeah, okay, but the way you think, 534 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 1: I think he kind of left the door open. Yeah, 535 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:16,639 Speaker 1: Like I think if you look back from the second 536 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: half of last year, um and then this year, I 537 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 1: think for the most part he has been really struggling. Yeah, yeah, 538 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 1: I think it's I think it's time. I mean, I 539 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 1: think he could have another two or three years as 540 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:30,920 Speaker 1: a backup if he was willing to do that somewhere. Yeah, 541 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 1: but why would you why would you want to do 542 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:36,440 Speaker 1: the money? Come on, I don't know, my guy, I 543 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 1: don't know. Maybe maybe you want to go into coaching 544 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 1: and as a backup quarterback you could kind of start 545 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 1: prepping for that, you know. I think they would just 546 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 1: take him as a coach if he wanted to do 547 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 1: right right then and there. But yeah, we'll see see 548 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 1: if he ends up following through with it. I hope 549 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 1: he does, because I don't like, Yeah, guys that I 550 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 1: think of pretty good players and they hang on and yeah, 551 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 1: like he's not a pretty good player. Anymore. He's not that. 552 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:05,160 Speaker 1: He's not good anymore. They're not good anymore. All right, 553 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:09,159 Speaker 1: five hundred is a stick and hotline web radio at 554 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 1: Patriots dot Com. Let's turn it over to our listeners. 555 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 1: We got picks later, so we got a hurry. Dustin's 556 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 1: in Ontario. What's up Dustin? Hey, guys. Good to be 557 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 1: able to call into PEU for a change. Usually I'm 558 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:25,240 Speaker 1: falling into either the pre or postgame show. I hope 559 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 1: everyone's having a good day so far. Yeah, good, good. Now. 560 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 1: I had a bit of a question that's been going 561 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: through my head for a little while now in regards 562 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 1: to the officiating, and I floated it out there on 563 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 1: a Facebook group that I follow. In hindsight, it was 564 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 1: kind of a dumb question thinking about it now, but 565 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: I still wanted to get your eyes opinion on it anyway. 566 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 1: So I noticed that when a player or a coach 567 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 1: gets fined or suspended or reprimanded in some sort of way, 568 00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,959 Speaker 1: usually their name is plastered all over the NFL website, 569 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 1: or at least somewhere on there. You can see it. 570 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 1: Um with the officials. That's not the case, So I 571 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 1: was wondering if that were the case with the officials 572 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: if they get fined or suspended for too many missed 573 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 1: calls or it would be plastered. It would be plastered 574 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 1: all over the place. If an NFL official gets suspended, 575 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 1: you'd know about the thing. But they would never do 576 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: that for it make them a little more careful about 577 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 1: what calls are made and what calls aren't made. No, 578 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: I think they go into every game trying the best 579 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 1: they can to make the proper calls. Yeah, and if 580 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 1: and if an NFL official was so bad that he 581 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 1: got suspended, yeah, you'd here know about it. They do 582 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 1: have like a weekly oh yeah, get graded like a 583 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 1: like a post mortem, and they go over and they 584 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 1: do get graded on how they did in each game. 585 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 1: So it's not like there's no accountability, yeah at all. 586 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 1: But is it is it? Like is it posted somewhere 587 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 1: where like the players? And then I don't think so. 588 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 1: But what you do find out is like the guys 589 00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: who have the highest grades, I should say pepe, because 590 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 1: there are some women who are in there now as well. Right, 591 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:04,959 Speaker 1: the ones with the highest grades are the ones who 592 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: get picked for playoff and Super Bowl assignments, which I 593 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: don't agree with. You don't agree I believe that you 594 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 1: should stay as a group. I agree. So your group 595 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 1: should have a total grade and the groups that do 596 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 1: the best should go playoff. Nobody wins unless the team 597 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 1: right team, right team, Now I agree with. Actually, I 598 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: floated that same question out there on Facebook, and I 599 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 1: get a comment from another gentleman saying that, you know, 600 00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 1: if a referee were to make a call that decided 601 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 1: an important game, like, um, I think there was one 602 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 1: that decided one against Los Angeles, the Los Angeles Rons 603 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: and in the same playoffs, Ye, there may be an 604 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 1: increase in death threats to said official because his name 605 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: and you know picture would be posted on a on 606 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: the NFL website or whatever if they did that. So 607 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: that could be seen as kind of a bad idea 608 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 1: to make it u public that an official got fined 609 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: or suspended or whatever. Yeah, but again, looking back on it, 610 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 1: is kind of a dumb idea to sort of do that. 611 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 1: I guess too. Yeah, I think is. I think there's 612 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on those guys in uh, it's 613 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 1: it would be too easy I think for people to 614 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 1: go after them. And yeah, so I don't know I 615 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 1: know who they we know what their guys are we 616 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: know what they're Yeah, they list who the refs are 617 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 1: for each game, you know who the people are and um, 618 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 1: but you know, in terms of like calling them out 619 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 1: and going over each play what was good or bad. 620 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 1: And I think that's a little much. It's it's that's 621 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 1: a tough job. It's a tough job, and it's a 622 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: reason why, you know, coaches get fined if they after 623 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 1: a game, you know, start calling out the refs. You know, 624 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 1: they're not they can't do that. They're not allowed to 625 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,920 Speaker 1: do that, you know. So all right, Dustin, thanks for 626 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 1: the call. Happy New Year, Uh, Joe's and Northern May 627 00:30:56,120 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 1: and what's up Joe? Oh hey? Um? Yeah, I was 628 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 1: calling back in about my call in yesterday, Okay, because 629 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 1: after I got off the phone, I just wanted to 630 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 1: clarify particularly sense it didn't want I called in, um 631 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: that I was not saying that the Colts in ninety 632 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 1: eight or sorry ninety nine should have taken Ricky Williams 633 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: over Edger and James. I was saying that Bill Polian 634 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 1: messed it up because he could have gotten all of 635 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 1: Dica's draft picks for that year, plus the first and 636 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 1: the third the following year and he still could have 637 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 1: possibly picked up James that year. How they were picking 638 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:36,280 Speaker 1: the Colts. We had the fourth pick right and Mike 639 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 1: Dick was out there going to trade his entire draft away, 640 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 1: which he did to the Redskins, who were the pick 641 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 1: behind the Colts. Yeah, I mean Bill Polian traded before. Hey, 642 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 1: I see, I see what you're saying. I see what 643 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 1: you're saying. I don't. To me, it's irrelevant. The guy 644 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,719 Speaker 1: built a dynasty kind of worked out all right for him. 645 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 1: What's that? I think the guy built a dynasty. It 646 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 1: worked out all right for him. He just wasn't as 647 00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: good as Tom Brady. I mean, well, well, but okay, 648 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 1: so think about it this way. He would have had 649 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 1: the second round pick in the draft last year. They 650 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 1: spent two picks his first two picks on the onlinebackers. 651 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 1: He would have had his choice of Errington or Lacker. 652 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 1: It's it's just a It's the thing of what I'm 653 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 1: saying is, yes, I'm not saying that Peyton Manning wasn't good. 654 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: But he had two options there. One was to keep 655 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 1: Marshall Falk and get Edri and James want of getting 656 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: paid more money than Marshall Falk and he held out. 657 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 1: Everything that went into that draft did not work out 658 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 1: really as good as people think for Pollyan. And even 659 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 1: if he had, if you look at that draft, even 660 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 1: if he had traded Mark Marshall Falk got the second 661 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 1: and third for that year, he probably could have still 662 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:43,320 Speaker 1: gotten Edri and James in a same draft. Okay, well, 663 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 1: yeah that was the point. Now listen, I'm all about 664 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 1: I'm all about knocking Pollyan down pegs. But you know 665 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: you're saying he did good, but he could have done better. 666 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 1: Yeah that's yeah. You know what, you know, who else 667 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 1: could you know, who else has done oster in football? 668 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 1: But he could have got a better one. Yeah, you 669 00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 1: could say the same about Bill. Yeah, any coach, I mean, 670 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 1: don't don't don't try it right, And none of them 671 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: are perfect, obviously I think they could all do better. 672 00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 1: But it's hard. Yeah, of course it is. Yeah, um 673 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: m or from Haifa or Haifa Right, last show, Fred 674 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 1: had it ran about the Bills, highlighting the fact that 675 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,480 Speaker 1: they're that they're the last team to win back to 676 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 1: back games and consecutive seasons and gillettes and so five. 677 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 1: Not that I care much about these random stats, but 678 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 1: all the stats shows is how great the Patriots were 679 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 1: in the last twenty years and how terrible the Dolphins, Jets, 680 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 1: and Bills were. I would think that there's a lot 681 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 1: of teams that had a chance to beat the Patriots 682 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 1: two years. I would think that having a team outside 683 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 1: of the division in gileete and two consecutive years is 684 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 1: quite rare. It's not really happens often, so this stat 685 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 1: is basically for in division matchups. And not sure why 686 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: the Bills are so proud about it. It does happen 687 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:53,480 Speaker 1: quite a bit because of the rotating schedule formula. You 688 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 1: sometimes get like three trips, like they're proud about it 689 00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 1: because of the first part of what you said. It's 690 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 1: incredibly complimentary stat for the Patriots that that no team 691 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 1: has ever been able to beat them back to back 692 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,719 Speaker 1: seasons at home. So let's raise a banner. They didn't 693 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 1: raise a banner. They did on social media. That would 694 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:12,880 Speaker 1: be the Colts. The Colts would raise a banner for 695 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,399 Speaker 1: that Bill and DC. I know you guys are making 696 00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:18,880 Speaker 1: picks today, so I'd like to throw mine into the pile. First. 697 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,800 Speaker 1: Patriots over the Jags easily. Matt gets back on track. 698 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,400 Speaker 1: Colts do New England a favor and run all over 699 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:29,760 Speaker 1: the Raiders, clinching a playoff spot for the Patriots. Titans 700 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 1: a Dolphins going to be a tough game, but the 701 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 1: weather in Nashville is going to be in the thirties 702 00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:35,719 Speaker 1: with a rain and snow mix. So I'll go with 703 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 1: the Titans and a squeaker. And for my upset special, 704 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:41,239 Speaker 1: I'll go back two years when the Patriots and Bills 705 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:44,080 Speaker 1: had a big December game for the division. Patriots one, 706 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:46,799 Speaker 1: we're feeling great about themselves, and the next week lost 707 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 1: to a terrible Miami team and blew the number one seed. 708 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 1: I think the same thing is going to happen to 709 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,960 Speaker 1: the Bills. Last Sunday was their Super Bowl. They're incredibly 710 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 1: cocky right now, and I think they're going to overlook 711 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 1: the Falcons and lo in the last seconds to Atlanta. 712 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,880 Speaker 1: The Patriots will then play the next week for the Division. 713 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,759 Speaker 1: I love it, Bill, I love it. I hope you're right, 714 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 1: but I don't think you're gonna be that's asking too much. Yeah, 715 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:15,359 Speaker 1: the Falcons are awful. Yeah, and the Bills know what's 716 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,680 Speaker 1: ahead of them. They they took care of their business 717 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 1: this past week. I don't think it's going to happen either. 718 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,919 Speaker 1: But I told you that's in the discussion for worst 719 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,880 Speaker 1: choke job ever. Oh yeah, yeah, just like losing to 720 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 1: Miami at home to lose a number one seed. Yes, ye, 721 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:34,400 Speaker 1: Mark and Nova Scotia. Uh. Is Patricia influencing the Patriots 722 00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 1: defense in their play calling? It hasn't been this passive. 723 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 1: Bill's not involved anymore because they've given up some yards 724 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 1: in the last few weeks. It hasn't been this passive 725 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:45,360 Speaker 1: since he left. They've really gotten away from the attacking 726 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 1: defense that Floras had been playing and before Paul Paul 727 00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:51,799 Speaker 1: pipes in that Bill runs the defense. This is more 728 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 1: about his influence. Yeah, but I know he knew you 729 00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,040 Speaker 1: though he knew you, right, because I know them and 730 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: that's what they do. No one was writing in during 731 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,240 Speaker 1: the seven game winning streak when Matthew Judon was sacking 732 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,120 Speaker 1: the quarterback every single week that they were being passive 733 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:11,320 Speaker 1: when Bill was running the show. Now they're not getting 734 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:14,720 Speaker 1: to the quarterback as regularly, and Bill suddenly ceded power 735 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:17,359 Speaker 1: to matt Patricia, who's allowing him to influence I think 736 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:19,840 Speaker 1: I think when you when it gets to this, you 737 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 1: have to look at who they're playing and I think 738 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 1: that if you know, during that Judeon run, like Paul 739 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 1: was talking about, if they had been playing that team 740 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:33,360 Speaker 1: this week, they would have had the same defensive style, 741 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:34,920 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, it was based on the 742 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 1: team that they were playing. They don't feel like going 743 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:40,759 Speaker 1: up against Josh Allen they could do that and win. 744 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 1: You know. Yeah, now you can say, well, we didn't 745 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,280 Speaker 1: do right. They did, but maybe they would have lost worse. 746 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 1: But they'll probably have a different approach against the rookie 747 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,839 Speaker 1: quarterback this week, most likely probably have probably sack them 748 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:55,440 Speaker 1: ten times, And they'll probably have a different approach against 749 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:57,600 Speaker 1: Josh Allen if they meet again for the third time 750 00:36:57,640 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. Right, but but they'll sack they'll say 751 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:03,880 Speaker 1: back Lawrence ten times. Oh, Bill's back to running the defense. 752 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 1: Right point is, yeah, the guy can do no wrong. 753 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 1: When he makes a mistake, it's by design. So but 754 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 1: it's it's it's very much matchup based who's the team 755 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:22,400 Speaker 1: we're playing, who are the players on that team, And 756 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 1: that's what Bill does. He's always done that. He's always 757 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:29,399 Speaker 1: done that. Anthony from Connecticut. It's been a tough two weeks, 758 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 1: but hopefully the Patriots have a comfortable, get right game Sunday, 759 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,760 Speaker 1: similar to the last two games during the eighteen season. 760 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,359 Speaker 1: Hopefully they can figure out something that works for them 761 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 1: to put a good showing in Miami and the postseason. 762 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:44,320 Speaker 1: My question for the team is do you see the 763 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:47,360 Speaker 1: shaping out? Similar to the home game against the Jets 764 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 1: early this year, Bill ran up to score against them, 765 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:51,600 Speaker 1: to show the team that they can be what they 766 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,000 Speaker 1: can be capable of, and it seems like that might 767 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 1: be due for the team at the moment. Thirty five 768 00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:01,480 Speaker 1: seven Patriots, enjoy your red zone Sunday, Paul, I don't 769 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:05,399 Speaker 1: have a red zone Sunday. Why not one o'clock. It's 770 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 1: a one o'clock Sunday game. Oh you don't get you don't. 771 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 1: He's got a pre game and postgame show. You're suddenly 772 00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 1: giving me the games off now. I mean, I just 773 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:19,360 Speaker 1: don't know how much you're gonna learn against this you know, 774 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 1: depleted Jaguars. We I think his point is it wasn't 775 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,400 Speaker 1: what you learn is you didn't learn anything against the 776 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:26,839 Speaker 1: Jets except that the Patriots could paste a bad team, 777 00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:29,200 Speaker 1: and that's all you're gonna learns that. But I think 778 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 1: you already know you can paste a bad team right 779 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:32,960 Speaker 1: at this point in the season. Yeah, Yeah, it's hard. 780 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,359 Speaker 1: It's hard to learn that. Again, it's hard to learn 781 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 1: something you already learned. Yeah, you know, I guess it. 782 00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:41,719 Speaker 1: Could you know, be reinforced, reinforced something that that Maybe 783 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:43,400 Speaker 1: there's something. I don't think there's way for any car 784 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:45,960 Speaker 1: you're not gonna be that's propos it Actually, like if 785 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:47,319 Speaker 1: you were going to be playing a bunch of bad 786 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:49,879 Speaker 1: teams in the playoffs, that'd be a good reassurance. Okay, 787 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:51,359 Speaker 1: we can beat up a bunch of bad teams. You're 788 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,440 Speaker 1: gonna face good teams in the playoffs. So it doesn't 789 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 1: it does, does you know? Now that said I'd rather 790 00:38:56,239 --> 00:39:00,200 Speaker 1: win thirty three to nine than seventeen fourteen, right then 791 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,400 Speaker 1: that tells me something. I think you learn a lot 792 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 1: more if it's a seventeen fourteen game than you do otherwise. 793 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 1: So I'll take the comfortable win. Patriots run the ball. 794 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,239 Speaker 1: They throw the ball once against the Jaguars, you think 795 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 1: just because back would just quit at halftime if like 796 00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 1: they went, if they threw like one pass in the 797 00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,640 Speaker 1: first half, you I'm not going out there and stuff. Yeah, 798 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:24,120 Speaker 1: tell Stidham to get out there. I'm hitting the ball 799 00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:27,640 Speaker 1: off Jessica in Connecticut. I tuned in late when you 800 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 1: guys were talking about the COVID issues regarding the Jaguars. 801 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 1: I'm going to the game this weekend, hopefully going to 802 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,799 Speaker 1: see a semi good game. Do you think there's an 803 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 1: a chance they make it a combined practice type game. 804 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 1: This is my first time writing in and I just 805 00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: wanted to thank you guys for doing the show, giving 806 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:45,560 Speaker 1: me something to look forward to and making me laugh 807 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,040 Speaker 1: while I'm at work. Oh, you're welcome. Fred's that was 808 00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:50,000 Speaker 1: Fred's idea. That was just that was a week just 809 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:52,800 Speaker 1: to throw it out there. I don't think that whatever happened, 810 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,840 Speaker 1: but I wouldn't actually play the game, no, no, no. 811 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 1: Where we might have been out. I think maybe I 812 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:00,759 Speaker 1: wasn't paying it. Yeah, you said that they were going 813 00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,279 Speaker 1: to play the game that they were. Do you think 814 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:06,399 Speaker 1: it like it every be possible in this situation where 815 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:09,959 Speaker 1: the two coaches would talk and the Jaguars, because listen, 816 00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 1: I can't I can barely feel a team. Yeah, so 817 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 1: you know, let's treat this like a preseason game. Is 818 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 1: there something you want to work on, I'll help you 819 00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 1: out with it. But we can't be competitive. No, No, 820 00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 1: I don't think there's a chance at that. I missed that. 821 00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 1: I was here, but I missed it. Yeah, thanks for listening. Sorry, 822 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 1: But I mean, but I mean, at this point, there's 823 00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:36,719 Speaker 1: twenty three people on that list. I mean, there's only 824 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 1: fifty three guys on the roster, and you got your 825 00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:42,799 Speaker 1: practice practice squad. Yeah, you replace enough of them, right, 826 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:44,479 Speaker 1: I mean you're barely going to be able to field 827 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:45,920 Speaker 1: the team though, unless they get a bunch of those 828 00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 1: guys back, like Paul said, the ones who were on 829 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:51,239 Speaker 1: at the beginning of the week. Yeah, it's possible. I 830 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:52,880 Speaker 1: just don't know how motivated they're going to be to 831 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,359 Speaker 1: be Yeah, I think they're gonna get killed. But it's 832 00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 1: you know, they'll have enough guys to play the game somehow. 833 00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 1: I can't imagine they Well, if they don't, they're gonna 834 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 1: have to forfeit. They're not gonna They're not gonna get 835 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 1: together and say, hey, what do you need help with 836 00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:09,720 Speaker 1: bright like that. It's going to do just exchanging jerseys 837 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:12,200 Speaker 1: at midfield, like, all right, have I have our defense player? 838 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 1: I was going to offer it, but I just wanted 839 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:16,280 Speaker 1: to say that I could tell my kids. I actually 840 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:19,920 Speaker 1: coached against you once. So well, let's go through the motions. Um, 841 00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:21,480 Speaker 1: if you want you want to work on some third 842 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:23,840 Speaker 1: down sets, like specific situations, what do you want? What 843 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:25,879 Speaker 1: do you want us to like that's not going to happen. 844 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:28,920 Speaker 1: But you know the other thing, it's twenty three guys, 845 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:32,360 Speaker 1: but how spread out are they? Is there one position 846 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:36,040 Speaker 1: that is really affected? You know that like we don't 847 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 1: have the defensive front. They're like they have eight guys 848 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:41,919 Speaker 1: out in the front. Yeah, so like you know, that's 849 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:45,040 Speaker 1: that's a big thing. Yeah, you know, so maybe to 850 00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:46,759 Speaker 1: your point, maybe they do run the ball because it's 851 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 1: like right because they don't know when to stop it. 852 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,279 Speaker 1: They don't need to throw the ball like I know 853 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:55,040 Speaker 1: before like against the Bills team, Like you know, I 854 00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 1: didn't care that they didn't throw it because you weren't 855 00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:59,200 Speaker 1: going to do well throwing in anyway because the win. 856 00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:01,480 Speaker 1: But this time I'm kind of with the crowd of 857 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:04,520 Speaker 1: so what you can just run the ball and win, 858 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:08,120 Speaker 1: you gotta throw it. You got to get those like 859 00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:10,880 Speaker 1: when you know, at the major college level, when the 860 00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:13,839 Speaker 1: really good teams, you know they have the homecoming game 861 00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:16,719 Speaker 1: against the overmatched one double a opponent, and yeah, they 862 00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:18,480 Speaker 1: could line up and run it off tackle every place 863 00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 1: because they're bigger and stronger and faster. But they don't 864 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:23,560 Speaker 1: do that because they work on their offense. They want 865 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 1: to get everything, yeah, sort of up to speed. I 866 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:29,399 Speaker 1: would hope that they do that this one, this game. Yeah, 867 00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:30,640 Speaker 1: I think they will, because they got a lot to 868 00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:32,440 Speaker 1: work on, you know, and let's I mean, the only 869 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:36,040 Speaker 1: way I could see them having a completely lopsided run 870 00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 1: total is if they need to, right, you know, I 871 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:41,200 Speaker 1: think that they'll come out in the first half at 872 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:43,960 Speaker 1: least and be reasonably balanced, and then if it's a 873 00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:47,719 Speaker 1: blowout in the second half, I don't think. I mean, 874 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 1: the combination of the guy being an interim coach and 875 00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 1: their players all missing. I don't think Bill will treat 876 00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:56,320 Speaker 1: it like the Jets. I don't either. I don't. I 877 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:57,920 Speaker 1: think Bill will just say, let's just run the ball 878 00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,239 Speaker 1: and get out of here. Yeah, I do too, which 879 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:02,000 Speaker 1: that might end up. You know, you might end up 880 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 1: with your forty carries, but not because you ran the 881 00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 1: ball every play, just because right, that's the way it 882 00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:10,839 Speaker 1: ended up. Yeah, I don't know. I'm you know, every 883 00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:12,880 Speaker 1: time I think that Bill won't run it up on 884 00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:15,399 Speaker 1: this guy. You know I'm wrong, so who knows? Yeah, 885 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 1: Cody and Arizona. I want to start out by saying 886 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,879 Speaker 1: I love the show and the insights provided by your crew. 887 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 1: Although I'm not I'm not a pessimist. The Patriots have 888 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:30,279 Speaker 1: performed far better than I initially expected this season. My 889 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:33,400 Speaker 1: question for you, gentlemen, is this, with the trending change 890 00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:36,480 Speaker 1: across the NFL to have a dual threat quarterback, should 891 00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 1: the Patriots look at acquiring more speed and mobility at 892 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:42,640 Speaker 1: the linebacker position and get away from the big, one 893 00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:46,439 Speaker 1: sided run stuffing style group they currently have. Side note, 894 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:49,000 Speaker 1: I don't think our current linebacker crew is bad, just 895 00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:52,359 Speaker 1: not equipped to handle this new growing trend for more 896 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:58,839 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson types in the NFL. I've been calling for it. Yeah, 897 00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:03,359 Speaker 1: they've drafted it a little bit, right, but those guys 898 00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:08,680 Speaker 1: have to make an important Chase Winovich, Josh Uch, Roddy Perkins, Um, 899 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:11,759 Speaker 1: we'll see Cameron mcgron right a little bit. They're not 900 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:15,399 Speaker 1: quite I mean, I mean, don't hold me to every 901 00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 1: single guy, but I think they're a little bit more 902 00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 1: athletic skill set and in a little smaller than like 903 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,520 Speaker 1: high Tower Bentley those I think I think let's I 904 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:28,400 Speaker 1: think that's right, and it's it's almost like bills, like 905 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:31,800 Speaker 1: grudgingly acknowledging, like okay, things are changing, like by taking 906 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:33,360 Speaker 1: like one of these guys every year, but then he 907 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 1: doesn't play them. I know so because he's kind of like, well, 908 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:36,759 Speaker 1: I have to take him. But then he's like, oh, 909 00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 1: I still got to do things my way, you know. 910 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:41,239 Speaker 1: All right, We're gonna take a break.

The front color that strouss It's a p 1061 00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:01,879 Speaker 1: it's a green polo. That's not green. It is green, 1062 00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:04,560 Speaker 1: and it's got mustard all over the front of it. 1063 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:06,400 Speaker 1: It's all it's like almost like the color of my 1064 00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:08,719 Speaker 1: granny Smith apple. But that's not green. That's a lot 1065 00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:12,000 Speaker 1: of screen artres that's a good point. Ugly shirt distracts 1066 00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:16,560 Speaker 1: people from his face. Wow, he's wow you, he's just 1067 00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:20,279 Speaker 1: so mean. I can't believe you've ruined that. Wow. What 1068 00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:23,480 Speaker 1: is that bag that you're wearing. That's another great moment 1069 00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:29,120 Speaker 1: from all Right. One of the rare times I ran 1070 00:54:29,239 --> 00:54:32,239 Speaker 1: to Eric's defense. Yeah. Yeah, it was like dogs and 1071 00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:36,480 Speaker 1: cats living together. Yeah. Five five past five hundred. Take 1072 00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:40,720 Speaker 1: an outline web radio at Patriots dot com. Uh Neil 1073 00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:44,560 Speaker 1: and New Brunswick writes in uh the New Brunswick where 1074 00:54:44,600 --> 00:54:47,640 Speaker 1: Ted and Mike's grandpa used to fitch in the Miramichi, 1075 00:54:48,040 --> 00:54:51,080 Speaker 1: can you pronounce that? Fred? Where rivers do have tides? 1076 00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:53,920 Speaker 1: It is definitely a hotbed of Patriots football. When I 1077 00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:57,400 Speaker 1: was a kid, all our USA TV channels came from 1078 00:54:57,440 --> 00:54:59,759 Speaker 1: Bangor Maine. So I grew up watching the Patriots in 1079 00:54:59,760 --> 00:55:02,880 Speaker 1: the nineties. We were terrible in the nineties, then we 1080 00:55:02,960 --> 00:55:05,040 Speaker 1: had twenty years on top. Now we're just one of 1081 00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:08,359 Speaker 1: the teams that. Being said, momentum in the NFL can 1082 00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:11,080 Speaker 1: change quickly. We had it, we lost it. However, I 1083 00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:13,399 Speaker 1: think we can get it back when this week, win 1084 00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:16,440 Speaker 1: against Miami next week and the next thing, you know, 1085 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:21,600 Speaker 1: where the team nobody wants to play? All right, Can 1086 00:55:21,680 --> 00:55:24,239 Speaker 1: I just ask a question for an honest answer? Sure? 1087 00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:27,600 Speaker 1: And I email was great. This is not about the email. 1088 00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:31,960 Speaker 1: But what do you think would have to happen for 1089 00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:33,759 Speaker 1: the Patriots to be the team that no one wants 1090 00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:36,479 Speaker 1: to play? Matt Jones throws for four hundred and fifty 1091 00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:41,880 Speaker 1: yards and four touchdowns against two Miami. Well, I think 1092 00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:43,960 Speaker 1: it would have to be in like in the playoff playoffs. 1093 00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:47,240 Speaker 1: In the playoffs, okay, yeah, but it's Matt Jones centered. 1094 00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:49,440 Speaker 1: Like they go they go on the road in the 1095 00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:51,440 Speaker 1: first round of the playoffs, they go to Indie and 1096 00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:54,520 Speaker 1: they just wax them. Yeah. Now, maybe they're the team 1097 00:55:54,560 --> 00:55:57,080 Speaker 1: that no one wants to play. They can do whatever 1098 00:55:57,120 --> 00:55:59,319 Speaker 1: they want. Sunday to Jacksonville and no one's gonna say, 1099 00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:02,480 Speaker 1: you gotta worry about the Patriots now and if Miami 1100 00:56:02,600 --> 00:56:08,160 Speaker 1: doesn't beat Tennessee about that game either, right? Uh? Addle 1101 00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:14,279 Speaker 1: from London, continuing the Mac arm strength conversation from yesterday's show, 1102 00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:17,480 Speaker 1: how would you compare it to Jimmy G's. Is Jimmy 1103 00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:20,040 Speaker 1: G's quick release a factor if you think both players 1104 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:25,040 Speaker 1: arm strength is similar? I think Jimmy strong, but I 1105 00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:28,680 Speaker 1: think he has a great arm either. Yeah. Is he's 1106 00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:34,040 Speaker 1: one of the quickest throws. Absolutely, Lastly, if we ignore 1107 00:56:34,080 --> 00:56:36,960 Speaker 1: the injury issue, would you say Jimmy G's biggest weakness 1108 00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:39,600 Speaker 1: is decision making? And so would you rather have a 1109 00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:43,439 Speaker 1: quarterback like him with the expectation that Belichick and Josh 1110 00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:46,440 Speaker 1: would could coach that out of him over a quarterback 1111 00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:49,440 Speaker 1: with a physical limitation. For what it's worth, at this 1112 00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:52,000 Speaker 1: point in time, I would take Mac over Jimmy G. 1113 00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:54,920 Speaker 1: Because I think there's more to come from him. But 1114 00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 1: it would be a much harder call if we're comparing 1115 00:56:57,560 --> 00:57:01,120 Speaker 1: them at the start of their respective career years. Well, 1116 00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:03,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. At the start of this respective careers, 1117 00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:06,600 Speaker 1: Jimmy GI was coming out of a Eastern Illinois and 1118 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:11,360 Speaker 1: Mac was coming off a national championship. Right, and Jimmy 1119 00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:14,920 Speaker 1: had two full seasons in the program before he got 1120 00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:19,160 Speaker 1: his first start right into it, I would I think 1121 00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:20,640 Speaker 1: Jimmy would have looked a lot different if he had 1122 00:57:21,040 --> 00:57:23,440 Speaker 1: used the same I used the same phrase Mac was 1123 00:57:23,520 --> 00:57:26,040 Speaker 1: more ready to play. I keep using that, right, You 1124 00:57:26,120 --> 00:57:28,080 Speaker 1: know that that's the number one thing Mac had going 1125 00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:30,000 Speaker 1: for him is he was closer to being ready to 1126 00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:31,880 Speaker 1: play than the others. Yeah, I do think, you know, 1127 00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:35,720 Speaker 1: I think jimmy g skill set is significantly better than 1128 00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:38,760 Speaker 1: than Mac joneses. I do worry about Jimmy though, Like 1129 00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:40,320 Speaker 1: I was watching, I worry about him because of his 1130 00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:42,800 Speaker 1: his health. He sits back there and he's got a 1131 00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:45,840 Speaker 1: perfect pocket and the shoulders start moving like so he's 1132 00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:48,720 Speaker 1: getting ready to and he throws the pick. It's like, 1133 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:53,120 Speaker 1: I don't like that, waits a second or two tell 1134 00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:55,720 Speaker 1: he's got to tell. And I think he waits a 1135 00:57:55,800 --> 00:57:59,280 Speaker 1: second or two long to a guy that that's the 1136 00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:01,600 Speaker 1: right guy. It's not like you threw it to the 1137 00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:04,400 Speaker 1: wrong guy, but you waited too long. Just get rid 1138 00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:07,880 Speaker 1: of the ball. You know you've been watching a lot 1139 00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:11,160 Speaker 1: of the Niners. Well, when you're on I watch you know. Yeah, 1140 00:58:11,200 --> 00:58:12,840 Speaker 1: I mean, I know what Frid's talking about because I 1141 00:58:12,960 --> 00:58:15,600 Speaker 1: kind of know the little shoulder thing that you're talking about. 1142 00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:18,640 Speaker 1: But what the biggest thing that worries me about Garoppolo 1143 00:58:18,880 --> 00:58:21,880 Speaker 1: is he just doesn't hold up. Yeah. He gets hurt 1144 00:58:21,880 --> 00:58:25,080 Speaker 1: all the time. Yeah, and I know that sounds unfair. 1145 00:58:25,160 --> 00:58:27,240 Speaker 1: It's not like it's anything he's doing to get hurt, 1146 00:58:27,320 --> 00:58:31,200 Speaker 1: but it's just a you know, injury prone and unlucky. Ye, 1147 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:35,280 Speaker 1: Bob and m Wilmington, North Carolina. Would you like to 1148 00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:38,080 Speaker 1: see pass heavy game for the Patriots in one of 1149 00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:40,240 Speaker 1: their final two games this year? Is there a chance 1150 00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:43,160 Speaker 1: for McDaniels to cut the reins loose for mac or 1151 00:58:43,720 --> 00:58:47,360 Speaker 1: is his success only attributed to the run game? Well, 1152 00:58:47,360 --> 00:58:49,919 Speaker 1: I'd like to see him. I mean, any game. It's 1153 00:58:49,920 --> 00:58:53,400 Speaker 1: gonna be this one right against the beat up Jags team. Yeah. 1154 00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:55,360 Speaker 1: If they can't throw against these guys, they're not gonna 1155 00:58:55,360 --> 00:58:59,240 Speaker 1: be able to throw against anybody. Yeah. They should be 1156 00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:01,880 Speaker 1: able to do whatever they want. They should. Yeah, I agree, 1157 00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:03,920 Speaker 1: whatever they want to do, they should be able to 1158 00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:06,600 Speaker 1: do it. They should, and I think they will. Philip 1159 00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:12,440 Speaker 1: Bay from overseas Okay, good, just finished listening to the 1160 00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:14,680 Speaker 1: previous show, and I have to say Eric was kind 1161 00:59:14,760 --> 00:59:17,560 Speaker 1: of right. Although I am from Rio, Brazil, I live 1162 00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:20,160 Speaker 1: in Paris, so I guess that qualifies me as an 1163 00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:24,360 Speaker 1: overseas listener. Absolutely at the Paris is overseas. Yeah, across 1164 00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:27,040 Speaker 1: the pond. I don't think you can't get anymore over 1165 00:59:27,120 --> 00:59:29,920 Speaker 1: That's where he wants to be, right, Europe. I want 1166 00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:33,840 Speaker 1: to be away from you. Yeah, his mind's on Europe. 1167 00:59:34,840 --> 00:59:37,200 Speaker 1: I just want to travel somewhere again. Sure, sit in 1168 00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:43,120 Speaker 1: a cafe with a beret, eating eating eating a croissant. Yeah, 1169 00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:51,280 Speaker 1: beggett warm baggett. Question, shouldn't we put some blame on 1170 00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:53,960 Speaker 1: Bill for the slow So no, I just said yes, 1171 00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:56,959 Speaker 1: shouldn't we put some blame on Bill for the slow 1172 00:59:57,040 --> 00:59:59,280 Speaker 1: starts in the last two games? Since it happened across 1173 00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:02,600 Speaker 1: the board offense, defense, and special teams? And isn't that 1174 01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:09,840 Speaker 1: one of the few things to watch in this Jaguars game? Um? Yeah, 1175 01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:13,160 Speaker 1: I mean I guess that is something that is coaching, right. 1176 01:00:13,240 --> 01:00:16,920 Speaker 1: I mean, when you don't come out with a good start, 1177 01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:21,480 Speaker 1: it's generally your game plan that you formulated didn't didn't 1178 01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:24,960 Speaker 1: work well right the game And I would declare, yeah, 1179 01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:28,480 Speaker 1: so I think that's a fair Again, I don't think 1180 01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:33,520 Speaker 1: you can. It's just not a fair look because if 1181 01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:36,160 Speaker 1: the Patriots come out and score touch on, Patriots came 1182 01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:38,880 Speaker 1: out with you know, fast start, No, the Jaggs just stink, 1183 01:00:39,320 --> 01:00:42,760 Speaker 1: you know, so on Sunday. Yeah, but I would, I 1184 01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:44,880 Speaker 1: think you would be right to say. And I think 1185 01:00:44,920 --> 01:00:47,360 Speaker 1: there are six games this year that the Patriots started 1186 01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:49,800 Speaker 1: with a touchdown, yeah, on their first drive, And I 1187 01:00:49,880 --> 01:00:52,280 Speaker 1: think you'd be right to credit the coaches with that, 1188 01:00:53,360 --> 01:00:57,200 Speaker 1: you know, I don't think that's an unfair um, you know, 1189 01:00:57,360 --> 01:00:59,120 Speaker 1: praise for the coaches when you come out and have 1190 01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:01,200 Speaker 1: a good game plan to starting it works right away. 1191 01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:05,480 Speaker 1: Yeah uh. Dale writes in the one comp to Mac Jones, 1192 01:01:05,560 --> 01:01:09,480 Speaker 1: I never hear about his former Patriot Tony Easton, soft arm, 1193 01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:11,919 Speaker 1: very little mobility, and you're worried if they both would 1194 01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:15,480 Speaker 1: cry after a big hit. I don't think mac. Nah. 1195 01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:18,200 Speaker 1: Mac doesn't look like he's gonna cry, Absolutely not. And 1196 01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:21,640 Speaker 1: a lot of the players on the page didn't like 1197 01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:25,760 Speaker 1: Tony Easton. They didn't really like him, you know, especially 1198 01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:29,240 Speaker 1: his own lineman. That's not good, you know, So yeah, 1199 01:01:29,240 --> 01:01:32,600 Speaker 1: I think Max, I know, Hannah used to make fun 1200 01:01:32,640 --> 01:01:36,320 Speaker 1: of him. You know, I'm not involved enough to know, 1201 01:01:36,720 --> 01:01:41,120 Speaker 1: but I I do think there's some similarities there. He's 1202 01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:44,360 Speaker 1: a smaller guy. I think he's gonna have a hard 1203 01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:46,720 Speaker 1: time holding up to wear and tear. But I don't 1204 01:01:46,760 --> 01:01:50,400 Speaker 1: think he's wasn't Easton like six three. Well, I don't 1205 01:01:50,400 --> 01:01:51,640 Speaker 1: know how tall he was, but he was small, and 1206 01:01:51,640 --> 01:01:53,640 Speaker 1: I remember Ron Meyer didn't want him because he was small. 1207 01:01:53,720 --> 01:01:57,439 Speaker 1: That was a big ball light weight. You mean, yeah, 1208 01:01:57,600 --> 01:01:59,760 Speaker 1: but he wasn't a leader, and I think Mac will 1209 01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:04,200 Speaker 1: be a leader. I do. If Michael Parsons was available 1210 01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:06,280 Speaker 1: at pick fifteen, I wonder if the Patriots would have 1211 01:02:06,320 --> 01:02:09,000 Speaker 1: been better at taking him and trading a second for 1212 01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:13,120 Speaker 1: Garoppolo or taking Davis Mills with their second pick. They 1213 01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:15,080 Speaker 1: are still you know, less. It's interesting if there were 1214 01:02:15,080 --> 01:02:17,200 Speaker 1: a lot of those players available, like a wide receiver 1215 01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:20,160 Speaker 1: well or him. And just because the Patriots took Mack 1216 01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:22,160 Speaker 1: at fifteen doesn't mean he wouldn't have been there in 1217 01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:24,680 Speaker 1: the second round. I mean, I don't know that another 1218 01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:27,480 Speaker 1: team would have picked him. Fred, you really are just 1219 01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:30,439 Speaker 1: like rattling the hornets nest to him. No, I'm saying 1220 01:02:30,480 --> 01:02:34,439 Speaker 1: a lot of things that are very, very, very very inciting. Yeah, 1221 01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:39,120 Speaker 1: I mean at that point, I think, Paul, you'll correct 1222 01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:41,280 Speaker 1: me if I'm wrong. I'm sure. But the teams that 1223 01:02:41,360 --> 01:02:44,200 Speaker 1: really needed quarterbacks kind of had who the you know, 1224 01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:46,920 Speaker 1: the question is, right, did someone that was you know, 1225 01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:49,720 Speaker 1: like a New Orleans, someone that was down low that 1226 01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:53,160 Speaker 1: reportedly was trying to get up? Did they want mac Jones? Right? 1227 01:02:53,320 --> 01:02:56,160 Speaker 1: I think your point is accurate. I think there's a 1228 01:02:56,480 --> 01:02:58,680 Speaker 1: better than average chance that if the Patriots didn't take him, 1229 01:02:58,680 --> 01:03:00,120 Speaker 1: he wouldn't have been the first round. Yeah, and I 1230 01:03:00,200 --> 01:03:02,080 Speaker 1: think that might have been that might have been the 1231 01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:05,240 Speaker 1: risk that maybe the Patriots love mac Jones, but maybe 1232 01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:08,160 Speaker 1: Waddle was there, maybe they were willing to take that risk. 1233 01:03:08,240 --> 01:03:10,600 Speaker 1: We're gonna take Waddle because we know he's not gonna 1234 01:03:10,680 --> 01:03:13,520 Speaker 1: last another couple picks. Yeah, and we'll take our chances 1235 01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:17,560 Speaker 1: that mac Jones still available, and we'll we'll snatch him up. Yeah, 1236 01:03:17,720 --> 01:03:19,880 Speaker 1: you know, or somebody like Dave. If he's not someone 1237 01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:22,000 Speaker 1: like Davis Mills, ye might might be in your time. 1238 01:03:22,120 --> 01:03:24,080 Speaker 1: I think that there's an argument to be made for 1239 01:03:24,120 --> 01:03:27,240 Speaker 1: that that Bill would have been just as happy, yeah, 1240 01:03:27,480 --> 01:03:30,280 Speaker 1: with waiting for a quarterback. Now, part of that, I 1241 01:03:30,320 --> 01:03:32,600 Speaker 1: don't think he would have been right by the way, right, 1242 01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:35,200 Speaker 1: because I don't think they just they're all just the same, 1243 01:03:35,400 --> 01:03:38,040 Speaker 1: like the Julio Jones that you know, the famous Julio 1244 01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:43,200 Speaker 1: Jones John Baldwin story. Remember that there was a story. 1245 01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:45,240 Speaker 1: There was a passage and I think one of Michael 1246 01:03:45,280 --> 01:03:50,880 Speaker 1: Holley's books that Thomas Dimitroff called Belichick to ask for advice. 1247 01:03:51,840 --> 01:03:55,000 Speaker 1: They made a big trade up from like the twenties 1248 01:03:55,120 --> 01:03:58,560 Speaker 1: to the top ten to get Julio Jones, and Bill 1249 01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:03,000 Speaker 1: reportedly in this story suggested not doing that. It's the 1250 01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:05,000 Speaker 1: same thing Juio Jones. You can get the same thing 1251 01:04:05,040 --> 01:04:07,840 Speaker 1: at Jonathan Baldwin down the bottom of the round. And 1252 01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:12,640 Speaker 1: I think that Bill largely believes that, yeah, that you 1253 01:04:12,720 --> 01:04:14,920 Speaker 1: can get the same guy later in the draft, but 1254 01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:16,800 Speaker 1: not all the guys are the same. Well, that's why 1255 01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:18,520 Speaker 1: he trades. I think that's why I was just gonna 1256 01:04:18,560 --> 01:04:22,680 Speaker 1: say that. Yeah, yeah, Alice says, and he's in Pentucket, Eric, 1257 01:04:23,640 --> 01:04:25,560 Speaker 1: I know what that is. He's not too concerned about 1258 01:04:25,640 --> 01:04:28,000 Speaker 1: this game. But is there a way that the Patriots 1259 01:04:28,080 --> 01:04:30,520 Speaker 1: could do anything to make you go this is actually 1260 01:04:30,600 --> 01:04:33,760 Speaker 1: a great team during this game? No, Nope. Personally, I 1261 01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:36,560 Speaker 1: believe Jacksonville is just horrendous. So get your win and 1262 01:04:36,720 --> 01:04:39,080 Speaker 1: get out. I can see a lot of media saying 1263 01:04:39,160 --> 01:04:42,320 Speaker 1: Patriots are back if they get a shutout win. Curious 1264 01:04:42,360 --> 01:04:44,960 Speaker 1: on your thoughts. My prediction is thirty five ten, not 1265 01:04:45,080 --> 01:04:49,560 Speaker 1: even close. It was a similar reaction when they beat 1266 01:04:49,640 --> 01:04:53,120 Speaker 1: up on the Jets. Yeah, you remember, like they were 1267 01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:55,160 Speaker 1: going through a little bit of a losing skid. Sure, 1268 01:04:55,600 --> 01:04:57,920 Speaker 1: they beat up all over the Jets and people were like, 1269 01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:00,480 Speaker 1: all right, now, see this is what their cape bull up. 1270 01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:02,120 Speaker 1: I can't imagine there's gonna be much of that in 1271 01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:05,439 Speaker 1: the media. Yeah, I had imagine that. No, I can't 1272 01:05:05,520 --> 01:05:07,920 Speaker 1: not not with this Jacksonville game, beat Miami, and I 1273 01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:10,280 Speaker 1: think you might get a little of that. You underestimate 1274 01:05:10,320 --> 01:05:14,520 Speaker 1: this media corpole. Um, I don't think. I don't think 1275 01:05:14,560 --> 01:05:18,520 Speaker 1: that's possible. You know what is possible. Deuce is back 1276 01:05:18,880 --> 01:05:26,520 Speaker 1: from practice, has returned from practice. Michael has returned from 1277 01:05:27,560 --> 01:05:35,600 Speaker 1: Michael has returned from right And what did you see? 1278 01:05:35,640 --> 01:05:38,400 Speaker 1: All right? A couple of new absences today, Shack Mason 1279 01:05:38,480 --> 01:05:42,320 Speaker 1: being the headliner. Yanni could just also so two offensive linemen, 1280 01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:46,200 Speaker 1: uh new absences one return. However, Dietrich Wise is back 1281 01:05:46,400 --> 01:05:48,360 Speaker 1: off the COVID list, So that'll knock them down to 1282 01:05:48,440 --> 01:05:53,040 Speaker 1: five guys. Probably in good spirits too, right, always, always, always, Now, 1283 01:05:53,120 --> 01:05:55,520 Speaker 1: did you fashion the pool report today? No, we had 1284 01:05:55,560 --> 01:05:58,160 Speaker 1: a full contingent today was full beat reporter. I see 1285 01:05:58,200 --> 01:06:01,280 Speaker 1: Mike Giardi tweeting per pool repat. No, he had everything 1286 01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:03,000 Speaker 1: that you just said. No, that's not really Yeah it was. 1287 01:06:03,240 --> 01:06:05,720 Speaker 1: There was the full the full contingent of everybody today. 1288 01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:07,800 Speaker 1: It was just one cameraman and he probably had somebody 1289 01:06:07,840 --> 01:06:12,640 Speaker 1: feeding him. They want to give it. That's all we 1290 01:06:12,720 --> 01:06:15,800 Speaker 1: did yesterday when it was underman But um, otherwise no, 1291 01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:19,680 Speaker 1: Agalore still probably good though that No additional guys on 1292 01:06:19,840 --> 01:06:22,680 Speaker 1: COVID right so far it's two days ago. Well they 1293 01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:24,920 Speaker 1: weren't if they weren't missing, I guess.

Well, could it be just 1324 01:07:54,200 --> 01:07:58,080 Speaker 1: that he's a professional and he just takes things very 1325 01:07:58,160 --> 01:08:01,960 Speaker 1: evil or extreme perfect? It could also it could also 1326 01:08:02,080 --> 01:08:04,560 Speaker 1: be that, you know, he questioned his injury going in, 1327 01:08:04,800 --> 01:08:09,400 Speaker 1: and he was thrilled coming out that he felt amination 1328 01:08:09,440 --> 01:08:12,440 Speaker 1: of things. Well that was I mean remember Andy speculating 1329 01:08:12,480 --> 01:08:14,040 Speaker 1: like is he gonna get too carries? Trying to open 1330 01:08:14,120 --> 01:08:17,080 Speaker 1: up a little bit, and then yeah, I was worried 1331 01:08:17,080 --> 01:08:19,599 Speaker 1: about that.

You know, like it's one thing 1339 01:08:37,880 --> 01:08:40,120 Speaker 1: in high school, you know, you get very emotional you lose, 1340 01:08:40,240 --> 01:08:43,439 Speaker 1: and you know, but these guys are so such pros. 1341 01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:47,200 Speaker 1: Like I've seen so many players after like playoff losses, 1342 01:08:47,280 --> 01:08:50,439 Speaker 1: super like a perfect example, the Super Bowl forty two 1343 01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:54,400 Speaker 1: loss to the Giants, undefeated season goes, you know, we know, right, 1344 01:08:54,640 --> 01:08:57,519 Speaker 1: this was unbelievable. He's right, I know.

Not not that he 1354 01:09:29,280 --> 01:09:31,240 Speaker 1: wasn't upset that they lost, but like he was handling 1355 01:09:31,280 --> 01:09:34,679 Speaker 1: it so well. And I remember the party rowing stuff. 1356 01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:36,880 Speaker 1: I would not be. I wouldn't be.

And this was like literally five minutes after 1359 01:09:42,640 --> 01:09:45,280 Speaker 1: the game ends, five or ten minutes after the game ends, 1360 01:09:45,400 --> 01:09:47,479 Speaker 1: but I remember, I have a chance to collect your 1361 01:09:47,560 --> 01:09:50,080 Speaker 1: thoughts back at the hotel. You're like bumping into people 1362 01:09:50,120 --> 01:09:51,840 Speaker 1: and you're like giving up hugs and you're like, yeah, 1363 01:09:52,880 --> 01:09:55,000 Speaker 1: you're looking like I feel like I'm more upset about 1364 01:09:56,160 --> 01:09:58,360 Speaker 1: and you guys kind of know me, I really don't 1365 01:09:58,400 --> 01:10:03,240 Speaker 1: even care. Like they were like, yeah, yeah, we're you know, 1366 01:10:03,439 --> 01:10:05,200 Speaker 1: I didn't. They sort of go into it and they're like, hey, 1367 01:10:05,240 --> 01:10:07,559 Speaker 1: we put everything we have into it, and if everything 1368 01:10:07,600 --> 01:10:11,000 Speaker 1: we had wasn't good enough with that, yeah, you know, 1369 01:10:11,120 --> 01:10:12,960 Speaker 1: like we we put it all in there. Now. I 1370 01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:15,479 Speaker 1: don't think Brady's like that. I think Brady probably was 1371 01:10:15,560 --> 01:10:18,080 Speaker 1: up in his room pouting. Yeah, like Paul would have 1372 01:10:18,120 --> 01:10:20,160 Speaker 1: been no, no question, I would be pouting. I wouldn't 1373 01:10:20,160 --> 01:10:23,120 Speaker 1: be at the part hadn't been there, Earth Winn and Fire. Yeah. 1374 01:10:23,200 --> 01:10:28,080 Speaker 1: But like I'm talking, but like I remember seeing like Junior, Uh, 1375 01:10:28,320 --> 01:10:31,800 Speaker 1: Stephen Neil Ye, Ty Warren, like you know, at these 1376 01:10:31,960 --> 01:10:34,080 Speaker 1: various different times, like I'm not even talking about just 1377 01:10:34,240 --> 01:10:37,720 Speaker 1: that one, various different big games, you know, and just 1378 01:10:38,880 --> 01:10:42,559 Speaker 1: all guys that I know were very professional. Oh it's 1379 01:10:42,640 --> 01:10:45,400 Speaker 1: not like like you know, sometimes you're like, you know, 1380 01:10:46,280 --> 01:10:48,960 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham, does he really care? You know, you know, 1381 01:10:49,240 --> 01:10:51,000 Speaker 1: or pick a guy you know, maybe that you didn't 1382 01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:53,160 Speaker 1: think if you didn't know if he was really invested 1383 01:10:53,280 --> 01:10:55,680 Speaker 1: or not. Guys that you wouldn't you pretty sure that 1384 01:10:55,760 --> 01:10:58,160 Speaker 1: they were, you know, and then they you were talking 1385 01:10:58,240 --> 01:11:01,240 Speaker 1: them like, yeah, you know, it's tough one. You know, 1386 01:11:01,439 --> 01:11:04,320 Speaker 1: Matt Light, Oh you know, I remember seeing Matt Light 1387 01:11:04,360 --> 01:11:06,320 Speaker 1: after one of those super brights shrug it off. What 1388 01:11:06,360 --> 01:11:08,360 Speaker 1: are you gonna do? Yeah, you move on. And you 1389 01:11:08,479 --> 01:11:11,519 Speaker 1: can contrast that with how Bill reacts sometimes. I mean 1390 01:11:11,680 --> 01:11:13,160 Speaker 1: just last week or whatever it was, we had the 1391 01:11:13,200 --> 01:11:16,160 Speaker 1: famous you know, apology the next day at the press conference. 1392 01:11:16,240 --> 01:11:18,680 Speaker 1: Based on how he reacted, Like, you can tell when 1393 01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:21,479 Speaker 1: they lose, you know, he's gonna be pissed. Yeah, and 1394 01:11:21,680 --> 01:11:24,200 Speaker 1: he takes it like he wears his emotion on his 1395 01:11:24,320 --> 01:11:29,240 Speaker 1: sleeve when he goes up to that podium for the postgame. Parcel, Yeah, 1396 01:11:29,280 --> 01:11:31,080 Speaker 1: he wears it on the mask. Parcel said, you lose 1397 01:11:31,160 --> 01:11:33,439 Speaker 1: and you just want to throw up in your mouth, right, 1398 01:11:33,479 --> 01:11:35,720 Speaker 1: you know, Like, but it's the worst feeling. Right. But 1399 01:11:35,880 --> 01:11:38,439 Speaker 1: some of these players who are like you know, they 1400 01:11:38,479 --> 01:11:40,439 Speaker 1: could be the sons of the coaches. That's how much 1401 01:11:40,479 --> 01:11:43,439 Speaker 1: the age gap is. Like they're just treating like I'm 1402 01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:45,479 Speaker 1: amazed at how professional they are and how much they 1403 01:11:45,520 --> 01:11:48,920 Speaker 1: can compose themselves after losing something as important as like 1404 01:11:48,960 --> 01:11:50,640 Speaker 1: a playoff game or a super Bowl. It's just so 1405 01:11:50,760 --> 01:11:52,680 Speaker 1: outside of real life, Like none of us will ever 1406 01:11:52,840 --> 01:11:54,880 Speaker 1: leg in our job, like like there's no super Bowl 1407 01:11:54,960 --> 01:11:57,479 Speaker 1: for your job generally, like people who work real jobs, 1408 01:11:57,520 --> 01:11:59,200 Speaker 1: like you never finish your job like me, and I 1409 01:11:59,280 --> 01:12:01,760 Speaker 1: never won the super Bowl of being an electrician, you know, 1410 01:12:01,840 --> 01:12:04,120 Speaker 1: like but regular jobs. It's just it's strange. And I 1411 01:12:04,160 --> 01:12:07,400 Speaker 1: guess the other thing that temper the disappointment is you 1412 01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:11,240 Speaker 1: lost your last game and the season is such a grind. 1413 01:12:11,439 --> 01:12:13,559 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and so you realize I can wake up 1414 01:12:13,600 --> 01:12:15,400 Speaker 1: tomorrow and I don't have to do this well. And 1415 01:12:16,120 --> 01:12:20,680 Speaker 1: also also their their their bank accounts are enormous, you know, 1416 01:12:20,800 --> 01:12:22,960 Speaker 1: so like you can always fall back on like, well, okay, 1417 01:12:23,160 --> 01:12:25,320 Speaker 1: you know, I guess I'll just be rich. I'll just 1418 01:12:25,360 --> 01:12:27,200 Speaker 1: go buy an island now and go stay there for 1419 01:12:27,240 --> 01:12:30,439 Speaker 1: a little while. Right. That's you know, that's tomorrow. I 1420 01:12:30,520 --> 01:12:32,800 Speaker 1: can do whatever I want to do. Right. It's kind 1421 01:12:32,800 --> 01:12:34,200 Speaker 1: of a good scene in Fever Pitch if you ever 1422 01:12:34,240 --> 01:12:36,280 Speaker 1: saw that, where after the Red Sox lost one of 1423 01:12:36,320 --> 01:12:38,160 Speaker 1: the games and Jimmy Fallony goes out to dinner and 1424 01:12:38,200 --> 01:12:39,760 Speaker 1: he sees like the Red Sox just kind of sitting 1425 01:12:39,800 --> 01:12:42,639 Speaker 1: there eating dinner, and that's like exactly where you're talking about. Yeah, 1426 01:12:42,800 --> 01:12:45,559 Speaker 1: they're just like hanging out. They're like, well, season's over. 1427 01:12:46,880 --> 01:12:50,160 Speaker 1: So I had a question um post to me yesterday 1428 01:12:50,280 --> 01:12:53,200 Speaker 1: when I was on my station. Yeah, which is and 1429 01:12:53,280 --> 01:12:56,479 Speaker 1: I'm curious what you guys think. Do you think mac 1430 01:12:57,080 --> 01:13:02,000 Speaker 1: mentally was hurt by the game? You only threw three pass? No? Uh, yes, 1431 01:13:03,040 --> 01:13:06,240 Speaker 1: I don't think I do. I never I gotta be honest. 1432 01:13:06,240 --> 01:13:08,880 Speaker 1: I never even gave an announce of thought until the question. 1433 01:13:08,960 --> 01:13:11,000 Speaker 1: I was like, I don't really know. Oh I was. 1434 01:13:11,160 --> 01:13:13,080 Speaker 1: I was thinking at that and I remember the next 1435 01:13:13,160 --> 01:13:15,280 Speaker 1: day I was saying I was. I felt embarrassed for 1436 01:13:15,400 --> 01:13:18,800 Speaker 1: him that they didn't, you know, that they didn't feel 1437 01:13:19,240 --> 01:13:21,599 Speaker 1: they could trust him enough to throw with the wind 1438 01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:24,519 Speaker 1: at his back, Like I'm okay, you know, you're going 1439 01:13:24,560 --> 01:13:26,800 Speaker 1: into the teeth of the wind. I understand. I'm okay 1440 01:13:26,840 --> 01:13:28,519 Speaker 1: that they didn't throw it thirty times. You could have 1441 01:13:28,560 --> 01:13:31,000 Speaker 1: thrown ten exactly, you know. And I think that was 1442 01:13:31,160 --> 01:13:33,400 Speaker 1: that wasn't to me. If I were him, I would 1443 01:13:33,400 --> 01:13:35,760 Speaker 1: have been insulted by that. I'm like, you're really still run? 1444 01:13:35,880 --> 01:13:37,680 Speaker 1: I wonder and I don't know. I'm not trying to 1445 01:13:37,720 --> 01:13:39,479 Speaker 1: make a thing out of it. You know, There's been 1446 01:13:39,479 --> 01:13:42,960 Speaker 1: a lot of talk in on talk radio, not necessarily, 1447 01:13:43,080 --> 01:13:45,639 Speaker 1: you know, back to the you know colleagues. No one's 1448 01:13:45,640 --> 01:13:50,280 Speaker 1: really talking about it around here, um about a possible rift, 1449 01:13:50,479 --> 01:13:52,639 Speaker 1: you know from what that thing that that slater said 1450 01:13:53,360 --> 01:13:56,160 Speaker 1: in the locker room. And then I thought Van Noy's 1451 01:13:56,200 --> 01:14:00,120 Speaker 1: comments about Jaz Jackson, whose brain child was this is 1452 01:14:00,120 --> 01:14:02,320 Speaker 1: everybody's brain child except for the people who who brought 1453 01:14:02,360 --> 01:14:04,479 Speaker 1: it up to you on your radio. So well, Christian, 1454 01:14:04,520 --> 01:14:07,360 Speaker 1: I can't ask me the question yesterday. I just don't 1455 01:14:07,400 --> 01:14:09,120 Speaker 1: think Mac is in a place. He's a rookie. I 1456 01:14:09,400 --> 01:14:11,519 Speaker 1: think like he's like, oh, they should have just let 1457 01:14:11,600 --> 01:14:14,519 Speaker 1: me do it, likes he's like no. But he asked 1458 01:14:14,800 --> 01:14:17,479 Speaker 1: what he asked if his confidence was shaken, because they 1459 01:14:17,560 --> 01:14:20,720 Speaker 1: clearly I think I think it was the want is 1460 01:14:20,760 --> 01:14:23,600 Speaker 1: one thing, but being he brought it, I thought he 1461 01:14:23,640 --> 01:14:25,559 Speaker 1: asked different thing. He asked if he was hurt mentally 1462 01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:29,000 Speaker 1: by it? I think was the question, not is is 1463 01:14:29,040 --> 01:14:30,880 Speaker 1: he mad? But at Bill for not allowing him to 1464 01:14:30,920 --> 01:14:33,200 Speaker 1: throw He's not in the I agree with you, he's 1465 01:14:33,200 --> 01:14:34,599 Speaker 1: not in a position to be mad at this coach. 1466 01:14:34,720 --> 01:14:36,960 Speaker 1: I can only wonder I would have been. I wonder 1467 01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:41,800 Speaker 1: if he looked at at you know, I would I 1468 01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:43,160 Speaker 1: would have called, I would have checked out of the play, 1469 01:14:43,240 --> 01:14:45,120 Speaker 1: would have walked out. Right. Do you think that I'm 1470 01:14:45,160 --> 01:14:48,800 Speaker 1: not throw the next pass or I am leaving? Do 1471 01:14:48,920 --> 01:14:52,000 Speaker 1: you think Kyle van Noy like talking about that, you know, 1472 01:14:52,040 --> 01:14:54,640 Speaker 1: the dropped interception was kind of I no, I that 1473 01:14:54,840 --> 01:14:57,960 Speaker 1: that one I missed. Go ahead, Okay, tell me, he said, 1474 01:14:58,040 --> 01:15:01,880 Speaker 1: Jasey's got to make that play. Oh, speak about it, 1475 01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:07,400 Speaker 1: and I did it. Yeah. I wonder if there's like 1476 01:15:07,479 --> 01:15:10,200 Speaker 1: a rift a little bit between offense, defense and I 1477 01:15:10,320 --> 01:15:12,680 Speaker 1: And I think back to that, sounds like there's a 1478 01:15:12,720 --> 01:15:15,320 Speaker 1: rift between defense and defense that Monday night, that Monday 1479 01:15:15,400 --> 01:15:20,400 Speaker 1: night game. Um, and we we argued about this, and 1480 01:15:20,520 --> 01:15:22,360 Speaker 1: we were on a different side of than most. If 1481 01:15:22,400 --> 01:15:24,760 Speaker 1: you recall, yeah, we was the credit given on this 1482 01:15:24,840 --> 01:15:27,160 Speaker 1: show for the Monday night game. If you remember the 1483 01:15:27,200 --> 01:15:29,720 Speaker 1: fourteen to ten game. The defense. Yeah, we all we 1484 01:15:29,800 --> 01:15:34,880 Speaker 1: all agreed, what got the attend what got the the offense? Well, Bill, Bill, Bill, Yeah, 1485 01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:38,880 Speaker 1: yeah right, but like brilliant, Yeah, you know, look at 1486 01:15:38,920 --> 01:15:40,680 Speaker 1: the way they ran the ball. I got I got 1487 01:15:40,760 --> 01:15:42,600 Speaker 1: news for you. They ran the ball better Sunday than 1488 01:15:42,640 --> 01:15:45,479 Speaker 1: they did that Monday. I understand they did, and but 1489 01:15:45,760 --> 01:15:48,559 Speaker 1: you know, going back to Slater, there might be a rift. 1490 01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:50,160 Speaker 1: I don't know. We don't know what's going on. I 1491 01:15:50,240 --> 01:15:53,200 Speaker 1: just think it was nothing Slater said indicated that there's 1492 01:15:53,200 --> 01:15:55,920 Speaker 1: a rift. No, sorry, you don't think it's interesting. I 1493 01:15:56,000 --> 01:15:57,720 Speaker 1: know you probably already talked to someone who thought it 1494 01:15:57,760 --> 01:16:00,200 Speaker 1: was ridiculous too, But I did talk to any one. 1495 01:16:00,240 --> 01:16:02,320 Speaker 1: But you don't think it's it's interesting that he says, 1496 01:16:04,120 --> 01:16:07,840 Speaker 1: we have choices to make ye like or let inspire 1497 01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:09,880 Speaker 1: a lot of control. I gotta tell you, I don't 1498 01:16:09,880 --> 01:16:11,720 Speaker 1: ever remember that being an option in New England. I 1499 01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:14,760 Speaker 1: totally agree with that. No, I I think that that's 1500 01:16:14,800 --> 01:16:17,160 Speaker 1: the normal thing to say at a point where a 1501 01:16:17,240 --> 01:16:20,120 Speaker 1: team is facing adversity. You know, we have to we 1502 01:16:20,240 --> 01:16:22,240 Speaker 1: have to decide what we want to do. I think 1503 01:16:22,280 --> 01:16:24,320 Speaker 1: that that's a normal thing to say. I know, I 1504 01:16:24,360 --> 01:16:26,800 Speaker 1: don't think that that indicated that there's any kind of rift. 1505 01:16:27,120 --> 01:16:28,880 Speaker 1: I don't. I just don't. I don't know if it's 1506 01:16:28,920 --> 01:16:31,559 Speaker 1: a rift. I just wonder if there's like a step 1507 01:16:31,640 --> 01:16:34,519 Speaker 1: back confidence problem. It's it's unusual to hear it coming 1508 01:16:34,720 --> 01:16:37,280 Speaker 1: out of this locker room. Yes, yeah, very unusual. Well, 1509 01:16:37,280 --> 01:16:39,120 Speaker 1: it's unusual to see what we just saw. I mean 1510 01:16:39,600 --> 01:16:42,000 Speaker 1: they're not used to this, or you know, at least 1511 01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:45,880 Speaker 1: when you think you're good to be kind of set 1512 01:16:45,960 --> 01:16:48,320 Speaker 1: back and like who get you're asked what two weeks 1513 01:16:48,360 --> 01:16:50,280 Speaker 1: in a row. I don't want to start questions. I 1514 01:16:50,320 --> 01:16:52,639 Speaker 1: don't want to make too much of it because I think, 1515 01:16:52,800 --> 01:16:55,120 Speaker 1: but but I think it's been I think it's largely 1516 01:16:55,200 --> 01:16:57,160 Speaker 1: been made nothing of it. I don't think it's nothing. 1517 01:16:57,280 --> 01:16:59,640 Speaker 1: I think it's something I do too, Like as as 1518 01:16:59,720 --> 01:17:05,200 Speaker 1: Jim and Wiggins would say, it ain't sunning, but it's nothing, 1519 01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:08,599 Speaker 1: but it ain't native. But again, there might be problem. 1520 01:17:08,720 --> 01:17:11,360 Speaker 1: Very eloquently, you know, says we have no idea what's going. 1521 01:17:11,479 --> 01:17:15,000 Speaker 1: But I wouldn't say that what Slater said indicated it. 1522 01:17:15,240 --> 01:17:17,720 Speaker 1: But I'm not talking about Slater. I'm talking about the 1523 01:17:17,840 --> 01:17:20,080 Speaker 1: totality of the NO. I brought that up as the 1524 01:17:20,120 --> 01:17:23,479 Speaker 1: first example. Andy Eric's right. They don't talk about an 1525 01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:26,360 Speaker 1: option being circling the drain and quitting. They don't talk 1526 01:17:26,360 --> 01:17:28,920 Speaker 1: about that annoy never no. But they've been here for 1527 01:17:28,960 --> 01:17:30,639 Speaker 1: over twenty years. I don't hear that being and I've 1528 01:17:30,680 --> 01:17:32,519 Speaker 1: heard it many We all have to look at ourselves 1529 01:17:32,560 --> 01:17:36,360 Speaker 1: in the mirrors, that's what they would say. No, it's not. 1530 01:17:36,880 --> 01:17:39,519 Speaker 1: It's not what I'm saying. We have we have two choices. 1531 01:17:39,680 --> 01:17:41,559 Speaker 1: We can we can fight back or we can give up. 1532 01:17:42,080 --> 01:17:47,280 Speaker 1: Nobody they never say that here. I guess I know. 1533 01:17:47,920 --> 01:17:49,920 Speaker 1: And again, I'm not trying to make it out to 1534 01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:53,360 Speaker 1: be a huge thing. I just think that it is something. 1535 01:17:54,200 --> 01:17:56,599 Speaker 1: There is something going on with the way that they're 1536 01:17:56,640 --> 01:17:58,439 Speaker 1: talking in the locker room. I don't know if it's 1537 01:17:58,439 --> 01:18:01,479 Speaker 1: a confidence issue. I don't know if it's a jealousy 1538 01:18:01,560 --> 01:18:03,880 Speaker 1: issue that Mac Jones has been a passenger and he's 1539 01:18:03,880 --> 01:18:06,360 Speaker 1: getting all the credit for those wins. And maybe Kyle 1540 01:18:06,439 --> 01:18:08,080 Speaker 1: van Noy was sort of giving you a pe, you know, 1541 01:18:08,160 --> 01:18:09,920 Speaker 1: like you know, we almost made a play to win 1542 01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:12,720 Speaker 1: another game. Like I don't know. I really don't know, 1543 01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:15,880 Speaker 1: but I just don't I don't think it's nothing. Would you? 1544 01:18:15,960 --> 01:18:19,840 Speaker 1: Would you draw some comparisons to oh nine, Yes, and 1545 01:18:19,960 --> 01:18:22,559 Speaker 1: what was what was the thing about locker can't get 1546 01:18:22,600 --> 01:18:24,200 Speaker 1: the guys to play the way? And why do you 1547 01:18:24,240 --> 01:18:25,920 Speaker 1: think he couldn't get them to play they want because 1548 01:18:25,920 --> 01:18:29,080 Speaker 1: they didn't like it. They didn't want to. Yeah, but earlier, 1549 01:18:29,439 --> 01:18:32,640 Speaker 1: not many weeks ago, we were saying, but this is 1550 01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:35,640 Speaker 1: a group that Bill just loves the coach, right, So 1551 01:18:35,800 --> 01:18:37,280 Speaker 1: why do we say that? And we can't say that. 1552 01:18:37,560 --> 01:18:40,000 Speaker 1: I'm just saying that, Like, why were we saying that? 1553 01:18:40,520 --> 01:18:42,120 Speaker 1: Seem like they had a good formulator in the seven 1554 01:18:42,160 --> 01:18:44,320 Speaker 1: game win, because they weren't saying things like we've got 1555 01:18:44,439 --> 01:18:47,600 Speaker 1: to have that interception, right. And also it might be 1556 01:18:48,520 --> 01:18:53,960 Speaker 1: you know, certain certain groups, certain individuals, certain teams. You know, 1557 01:18:54,000 --> 01:18:57,479 Speaker 1: when things are going well, everything's coming up roses and 1558 01:18:57,520 --> 01:18:59,160 Speaker 1: as soon as you hit a rough patch, to me 1559 01:18:59,240 --> 01:19:02,040 Speaker 1: of that, you know, so you should hit a rough patch, 1560 01:19:02,160 --> 01:19:05,080 Speaker 1: you start you start turning on people. Now, the good teams, 1561 01:19:05,120 --> 01:19:07,000 Speaker 1: and we've seen plenty of good teams around here. When 1562 01:19:07,080 --> 01:19:09,160 Speaker 1: things get bad and they know they are a good team, 1563 01:19:09,200 --> 01:19:11,240 Speaker 1: they say, we trust in each other, We stick with 1564 01:19:11,320 --> 01:19:14,160 Speaker 1: the process. You know, that's normally what we hear. Like 1565 01:19:14,160 --> 01:19:17,600 Speaker 1: I remember, specifically Julian Edelman saying it in the Pittsburgh 1566 01:19:17,640 --> 01:19:20,719 Speaker 1: locker room after they lost the week after the Miami 1567 01:19:20,800 --> 01:19:23,759 Speaker 1: Miracle back in twenty eighteen, and like everybody was crowding 1568 01:19:23,760 --> 01:19:25,200 Speaker 1: around him because he was one of the few guys 1569 01:19:25,240 --> 01:19:27,400 Speaker 1: who was talking that night, and they all knew he 1570 01:19:27,479 --> 01:19:29,800 Speaker 1: would talk and he would be a good quote. And 1571 01:19:29,960 --> 01:19:31,639 Speaker 1: that was that was one of the things he said 1572 01:19:31,720 --> 01:19:35,080 Speaker 1: that night was like, look, we know what we've gotten 1573 01:19:35,080 --> 01:19:38,400 Speaker 1: this locker room, and we trust each other. I wasn't 1574 01:19:38,439 --> 01:19:40,599 Speaker 1: hearing any of that each other night. We talked yesterday 1575 01:19:40,760 --> 01:19:47,200 Speaker 1: for players high Tower. Has Jase Jackson talked this week? Ye? 1576 01:19:47,560 --> 01:19:49,800 Speaker 1: Jay Jackson, you know who? You remember what he said 1577 01:19:49,800 --> 01:19:54,559 Speaker 1: after the game? He didn't, right, he didn't talk after 1578 01:19:54,600 --> 01:19:58,080 Speaker 1: the game. Yeah. Man, this has really gotten bad quick. 1579 01:19:59,200 --> 01:20:02,040 Speaker 1: That's amazing. You know My point though, like they like 1580 01:20:02,080 --> 01:20:05,240 Speaker 1: when things are going great, oh sure, sure, I ante 1581 01:20:05,320 --> 01:20:07,320 Speaker 1: for the game right, right, and then when things are 1582 01:20:07,400 --> 01:20:09,439 Speaker 1: going bad, I don't want to talk. And that's why 1583 01:20:09,560 --> 01:20:11,280 Speaker 1: Mike and I don't think he will be here next Well, 1584 01:20:11,280 --> 01:20:13,439 Speaker 1: that's what we did one reason. You know who's at 1585 01:20:13,479 --> 01:20:15,960 Speaker 1: matt Light at the time, you know. But at least 1586 01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:19,240 Speaker 1: that was just Jason Taylor. No, it was very consistent. 1587 01:20:19,320 --> 01:20:22,280 Speaker 1: He usually talked. He just didn't talk after Jason Taylor dominant. Yeah, 1588 01:20:23,760 --> 01:20:27,160 Speaker 1: he's pretty right about that. Yeah, but there's been a 1589 01:20:27,240 --> 01:20:30,400 Speaker 1: lot of guys like that when and where, you know, 1590 01:20:30,840 --> 01:20:34,080 Speaker 1: you don't hear from them after losses. But I don't know, 1591 01:20:34,760 --> 01:20:37,280 Speaker 1: like I said, it could very well be problems. Yeah, 1592 01:20:37,280 --> 01:20:39,280 Speaker 1: and I'm like, like I said, I'm not telling you 1593 01:20:39,360 --> 01:20:41,760 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not telling you that whatever's going 1594 01:20:41,800 --> 01:20:43,920 Speaker 1: on is a major deal. I'm not telling you that 1595 01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:46,360 Speaker 1: at all because I don't know. And when I keep 1596 01:20:46,400 --> 01:20:48,439 Speaker 1: getting asked about these things, I keep saying the same thing. 1597 01:20:48,479 --> 01:20:50,320 Speaker 1: I haven't been in the locker room in two years, right, 1598 01:20:51,080 --> 01:20:52,519 Speaker 1: So it's really hard to get a feel in a 1599 01:20:52,600 --> 01:20:54,720 Speaker 1: zoom calls to what's going on. I'm just looking at 1600 01:20:54,720 --> 01:20:57,000 Speaker 1: the quotes when they come out. I'm hearing sound bites 1601 01:20:57,040 --> 01:20:59,600 Speaker 1: that are getting played on TV and the radio, and 1602 01:20:59,680 --> 01:21:03,240 Speaker 1: I'm wondering, like if there's a little jealousy going on 1603 01:21:04,560 --> 01:21:08,360 Speaker 1: among factions of the team, I'm wondering. I'm not saying 1604 01:21:08,400 --> 01:21:09,840 Speaker 1: there is. So I don't want you know, when the 1605 01:21:09,880 --> 01:21:12,680 Speaker 1: Patriots win thirty eight to nothing on Sunday, right, I 1606 01:21:12,720 --> 01:21:14,479 Speaker 1: don't want to hear like, oh yeah, big rift in 1607 01:21:14,520 --> 01:21:16,560 Speaker 1: the I didn't say there was, and I don't have 1608 01:21:16,640 --> 01:21:20,040 Speaker 1: any delta. The Patriots are gonna roll on Sunday. None, no, 1609 01:21:20,320 --> 01:21:22,880 Speaker 1: no doubt at all. Yeah, but what does it tell you?

I'm staying 1617 01:21:46,920 --> 01:21:49,000 Speaker 1: out of the top. All right, let's take some calls 1618 01:21:49,320 --> 01:21:52,519 Speaker 1: before we get the picks. Uh, Sean's in Vancouver. What's 1619 01:21:52,600 --> 01:21:56,439 Speaker 1: up Sean? The Fred? A few things, Eric, I hope 1620 01:21:56,479 --> 01:21:59,160 Speaker 1: you're right when you say the Patriots are gonna play 1621 01:22:00,160 --> 01:22:03,240 Speaker 1: good teams in the playoffs. That means that they want 1622 01:22:03,280 --> 01:22:06,320 Speaker 1: at least one game. Well, I don't take me literally. 1623 01:22:06,400 --> 01:22:08,639 Speaker 1: I mean like in the playoffs, whatever team they yeah, 1624 01:22:08,680 --> 01:22:10,400 Speaker 1: whatever team they fe face is going to be a 1625 01:22:10,680 --> 01:22:14,439 Speaker 1: good team. Unless it's Cleveland. Well we'll see. Um. The 1626 01:22:14,560 --> 01:22:17,120 Speaker 1: other thing, I also missed traveling as well. I mean 1627 01:22:17,200 --> 01:22:20,160 Speaker 1: there's like five or six trips that I put off 1628 01:22:20,240 --> 01:22:21,880 Speaker 1: the past couple of years. So I can't wait till 1629 01:22:22,280 --> 01:22:25,200 Speaker 1: it turns into maybe an epidemic and get out again. 1630 01:22:25,720 --> 01:22:28,120 Speaker 1: But I do have one question about the game, uh 1631 01:22:28,760 --> 01:22:32,360 Speaker 1: with with the Jaguars with Robinson on I R. I 1632 01:22:32,479 --> 01:22:34,880 Speaker 1: think they'll they'll be using Armstead a little bit on 1633 01:22:35,240 --> 01:22:39,400 Speaker 1: maybe first and second down and U Daria or in 1634 01:22:39,479 --> 01:22:42,000 Speaker 1: the passing down. How many receptions do you think he'll 1635 01:22:42,080 --> 01:22:46,439 Speaker 1: get seven? Seven? I don't know. I don't know. I'm 1636 01:22:46,439 --> 01:22:50,599 Speaker 1: just it's not very specific. I don't know what every 1637 01:22:50,760 --> 01:22:54,439 Speaker 1: point too took over for Robinson last week. Dude, right, 1638 01:22:54,600 --> 01:22:58,000 Speaker 1: ye out, I'm out the rest of the way. I 1639 01:22:58,000 --> 01:23:01,200 Speaker 1: don't know anything else. I'm not even going to pretend 1640 01:23:01,240 --> 01:23:02,560 Speaker 1: to tell you I know who all the guys on 1641 01:23:02,720 --> 01:23:05,800 Speaker 1: COVID are. Yeah, Okay, It's just it's hard to it's 1642 01:23:05,840 --> 01:23:08,120 Speaker 1: hard to really like say, this is what you need. 1643 01:23:08,200 --> 01:23:10,160 Speaker 1: The only thing that is a joke. The only thing 1644 01:23:10,200 --> 01:23:12,600 Speaker 1: I was looking forward to in this game, even like 1645 01:23:12,720 --> 01:23:15,720 Speaker 1: weeks ago, was seeing Trevor Lawrence in person getting the 1646 01:23:15,800 --> 01:23:17,640 Speaker 1: eyeball test on the number Sean, Who do you want 1647 01:23:17,680 --> 01:23:18,920 Speaker 1: to know? I don't know if we're even be able 1648 01:23:18,920 --> 01:23:21,320 Speaker 1: to see him in his right you know, the running 1649 01:23:21,360 --> 01:23:24,680 Speaker 1: back to Daria. I think he's going to be more 1650 01:23:24,920 --> 01:23:29,760 Speaker 1: on passing down. Yeah, but who so who's the other guys? Yeah, 1651 01:23:29,960 --> 01:23:32,800 Speaker 1: he wasn't well, I don't even have him. He has 1652 01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:36,439 Speaker 1: no stats. He was I think they brought him up 1653 01:23:36,439 --> 01:23:39,120 Speaker 1: in practice squad. Yeah, he's got no carries, no receptions. No, 1654 01:23:40,280 --> 01:23:43,160 Speaker 1: they just they just put him on and you gave 1655 01:23:43,240 --> 01:23:46,120 Speaker 1: him seven catches. So is this for your fantasy? Sean, 1656 01:23:46,360 --> 01:23:49,000 Speaker 1: be honest, is this for your fantasy? I was, I 1657 01:23:49,080 --> 01:23:52,280 Speaker 1: was more infatuated with Mike prediction. Se just threw a 1658 01:23:52,360 --> 01:23:58,400 Speaker 1: number out there. I just wanted to sound incredibly contact. 1659 01:23:58,520 --> 01:24:03,519 Speaker 1: All right, thanks for the car say seven seven catches, Aaron, 1660 01:24:03,560 --> 01:24:06,479 Speaker 1: I don't even know who the guy. Aaron's in Kentucky. Hey, Aaron, 1661 01:24:09,680 --> 01:24:14,840 Speaker 1: to go back and watch BATA and then a small conspiracy. Okay, 1662 01:24:14,960 --> 01:24:19,639 Speaker 1: I love the conspiracies. All right, So question, Uh, I'm 1663 01:24:19,880 --> 01:24:21,800 Speaker 1: heading to the game this weekend. It would be my 1664 01:24:21,920 --> 01:24:26,320 Speaker 1: first trip Boston, and your guys like must while I'm 1665 01:24:26,360 --> 01:24:31,320 Speaker 1: down there there, Well, are you staying in Boston? Uh? 1666 01:24:31,760 --> 01:24:35,479 Speaker 1: A couple of miles from Julia, Oh, from Gillette Patriot Place. 1667 01:24:35,520 --> 01:24:37,840 Speaker 1: Come on down. There's tons of restaurants here because yeah, 1668 01:24:37,840 --> 01:24:39,479 Speaker 1: I mean, go to the Hall of Fame if you 1669 01:24:39,520 --> 01:24:42,679 Speaker 1: can get in, um right here at Gillette Stadium, that's 1670 01:24:42,880 --> 01:24:46,400 Speaker 1: you know, do some ice skating, yeah, presented everything. Yeah, 1671 01:24:47,240 --> 01:24:50,280 Speaker 1: there's lots lots of restaurants there's a basketball shot there too. 1672 01:24:50,560 --> 01:24:56,560 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. Um. So the conspiracy I 1673 01:24:56,600 --> 01:24:59,800 Speaker 1: don't necessarily believe. I just thought it was something kind 1674 01:24:59,800 --> 01:25:05,679 Speaker 1: of to throw out there. So, um conspiracy that Bill 1675 01:25:05,760 --> 01:25:10,439 Speaker 1: Belichick saw Mac Jones and saw a legacy gold mine. 1676 01:25:10,600 --> 01:25:14,760 Speaker 1: Not the way that you think, but that he saw 1677 01:25:14,880 --> 01:25:18,479 Speaker 1: somebody that he could use smoking meters and make him 1678 01:25:18,760 --> 01:25:23,280 Speaker 1: look like a good um quarterback. Because he had said 1679 01:25:23,360 --> 01:25:25,200 Speaker 1: that he wanted to leave the team in a good 1680 01:25:25,240 --> 01:25:29,320 Speaker 1: position when he lived. So what I mean was when 1681 01:25:29,640 --> 01:25:33,720 Speaker 1: he does leave, that the predecessor to him won't be 1682 01:25:33,760 --> 01:25:36,240 Speaker 1: able to use Mac in the ways that he didn't 1683 01:25:36,280 --> 01:25:39,360 Speaker 1: make him. So so he has successfully Mack, but no 1684 01:25:39,479 --> 01:25:45,360 Speaker 1: one else can. It's uh yeah, that's a that's yeah, boy. 1685 01:25:45,439 --> 01:25:47,519 Speaker 1: That would be really evil unless he like up and 1686 01:25:47,640 --> 01:25:49,640 Speaker 1: left this year. But I think by the time he 1687 01:25:49,720 --> 01:25:52,479 Speaker 1: probably leaves that if Max here long term, that he'll 1688 01:25:52,520 --> 01:25:54,920 Speaker 1: have enough of a experience in the NFL, then like 1689 01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:56,640 Speaker 1: it's not going to totally pull the rug out. But 1690 01:25:56,680 --> 01:25:58,599 Speaker 1: I mean, if it happened quick and Josh left him, 1691 01:25:58,600 --> 01:26:01,559 Speaker 1: Bill left this year, I have some questions about how 1692 01:26:01,720 --> 01:26:04,479 Speaker 1: and like a new house. Thanks for the Carl, Aaron, 1693 01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:07,840 Speaker 1: How is Bill controlling how the next guy uses Mac Jones. Well, 1694 01:26:07,880 --> 01:26:09,800 Speaker 1: it's not how he uses is that Mac doesn't do 1695 01:26:09,920 --> 01:26:13,360 Speaker 1: as well? But why why wouldn't he Because Bill's not here? Yeah, 1696 01:26:13,479 --> 01:26:18,200 Speaker 1: Bill knows what he's pulling the strength try to play 1697 01:26:18,240 --> 01:26:20,080 Speaker 1: along with me because I love conspiracies and I like 1698 01:26:20,160 --> 01:26:22,439 Speaker 1: to try to figure out what to get on board. Yeah, yeah, 1699 01:26:22,479 --> 01:26:25,360 Speaker 1: I do. I love you know, I want to embrace this, Okay, 1700 01:26:26,000 --> 01:26:28,559 Speaker 1: totally acknowledging that Bill is a better coach than whoever's 1701 01:26:28,560 --> 01:26:31,280 Speaker 1: going to take his place. Right, I'm just like I said, 1702 01:26:31,320 --> 01:26:34,040 Speaker 1: I'm comfortable with the fact that whoever take took over 1703 01:26:34,200 --> 01:26:36,600 Speaker 1: Brady wouldn't be as good as Brady, right, same thing 1704 01:26:36,680 --> 01:26:39,320 Speaker 1: for Bill, whoever takes over won't be as good as Bill. Right. 1705 01:26:40,400 --> 01:26:42,840 Speaker 1: So you think he's that bad that no one else 1706 01:26:42,920 --> 01:26:45,519 Speaker 1: can have a modicum of success with him, Well that's 1707 01:26:45,560 --> 01:26:49,519 Speaker 1: what this guy's saying. But what is the conspiracy. That's 1708 01:26:49,600 --> 01:26:53,640 Speaker 1: the thing that he knew that Bill purposely took a 1709 01:26:53,760 --> 01:26:58,800 Speaker 1: quarterback who he knew wasn't that good, and that he'll 1710 01:26:58,840 --> 01:27:01,639 Speaker 1: make him look good. I'm blinking. And then when he leaves, 1711 01:27:02,080 --> 01:27:05,160 Speaker 1: and then when he leaves, one guy's gonna fall off 1712 01:27:05,200 --> 01:27:07,439 Speaker 1: a Cliff because Bill is no longer with Because Bill 1713 01:27:07,520 --> 01:27:09,320 Speaker 1: is such a good coach, he can make even the 1714 01:27:09,360 --> 01:27:12,600 Speaker 1: worst quarterback looking Yeah, it's I gotta tell you. I 1715 01:27:13,560 --> 01:27:15,439 Speaker 1: think as long as you have a structure of a 1716 01:27:15,520 --> 01:27:17,080 Speaker 1: team and you can run the ball the way the 1717 01:27:17,120 --> 01:27:19,200 Speaker 1: Patriots have run the ball, Mac Jones can do what 1718 01:27:19,240 --> 01:27:21,479 Speaker 1: he's done. I don't know what your record is going 1719 01:27:21,560 --> 01:27:23,479 Speaker 1: to be, because you might not be as good record 1720 01:27:23,560 --> 01:27:26,439 Speaker 1: wise as Bill because Bill is a better coach. But 1721 01:27:26,640 --> 01:27:29,639 Speaker 1: Matt can play like this with a lot of other coaches. 1722 01:27:29,680 --> 01:27:31,360 Speaker 1: I know. I know you can't do this because I 1723 01:27:31,400 --> 01:27:34,080 Speaker 1: don't think you can trade a coordinator. But would you 1724 01:27:34,200 --> 01:27:37,840 Speaker 1: trade Josh McDaniels and Mac Jones for Trevor Lawrence? Straight up? 1725 01:27:39,200 --> 01:27:42,000 Speaker 1: I would? Yeah, see my knee jerk as I would. 1726 01:27:42,520 --> 01:27:45,519 Speaker 1: But then, Mike, I'm thinking, Okay, once Lawrence is here, 1727 01:27:46,000 --> 01:27:48,040 Speaker 1: who's the guy that's gonna make him forget everything he 1728 01:27:48,160 --> 01:27:51,280 Speaker 1: learned in Jacksonville and start over with Bill's gone? No, 1729 01:27:51,439 --> 01:27:54,080 Speaker 1: Bill still here, but yeah, he's gonna spend all this 1730 01:27:54,160 --> 01:27:56,680 Speaker 1: time with Bill's gone too. Then you know you might 1731 01:27:56,920 --> 01:27:58,800 Speaker 1: be able to argue with me, But no, I would 1732 01:27:58,840 --> 01:28:00,839 Speaker 1: still do it because I would rather of the quarterback. 1733 01:28:00,880 --> 01:28:02,680 Speaker 1: Whoever the new guy that comes in, I'd rather have 1734 01:28:02,800 --> 01:28:05,559 Speaker 1: him work with Trevor Lawrence. Yes, yeah, Mac Jones, especially 1735 01:28:05,600 --> 01:28:08,800 Speaker 1: after that, like good, good job is it? Aaron? Yeah? 1736 01:28:09,280 --> 01:28:12,120 Speaker 1: Now that's a deep in the weeds conspiracy. I like that? 1737 01:28:12,920 --> 01:28:14,960 Speaker 1: Why not? Being dead serious? By the way, I like that. 1738 01:28:15,240 --> 01:28:20,080 Speaker 1: One more call Craig and Hoboken. What's up Boken? Hey? 1739 01:28:20,920 --> 01:28:24,679 Speaker 1: Have you been to Arthur's? Of course, been to Arthur's. Nice. 1740 01:28:25,600 --> 01:28:28,960 Speaker 1: He just smacked, He just smasmacked away, like crazy, good job. 1741 01:28:29,080 --> 01:28:31,240 Speaker 1: You might not eat me like Eric wouldn't go to Art. 1742 01:28:31,320 --> 01:28:33,720 Speaker 1: I've been to Arthur's with you when you ate mate me? 1743 01:28:33,960 --> 01:28:39,960 Speaker 1: Why not?

Something's 1748 01:28:59,760 --> 01:29:01,479 Speaker 1: been ruined in my mind a little bit. And you 1749 01:29:01,520 --> 01:29:03,840 Speaker 1: guys have all the history and maybe no better than 1750 01:29:03,920 --> 01:29:08,839 Speaker 1: I do. It feels to me like recently, um, whenever 1751 01:29:08,920 --> 01:29:11,880 Speaker 1: the Patriots have quote like controlled their own destiny to 1752 01:29:11,960 --> 01:29:14,240 Speaker 1: get into the playoffs, that's been like a death knoll 1753 01:29:14,320 --> 01:29:16,840 Speaker 1: for us, and we can't seem to get win the 1754 01:29:16,960 --> 01:29:19,439 Speaker 1: like the most important games in December to like get 1755 01:29:19,479 --> 01:29:22,640 Speaker 1: the number one overall seed or like you know, the 1756 01:29:23,080 --> 01:29:25,960 Speaker 1: East like in this year. Is that Do you think 1757 01:29:26,000 --> 01:29:28,080 Speaker 1: there's any like weight for that or is that somebody 1758 01:29:28,200 --> 01:29:30,479 Speaker 1: is just kind of like very recently because we've had 1759 01:29:30,760 --> 01:29:34,439 Speaker 1: a lot of struggles in the past few decembers. Depends 1760 01:29:34,439 --> 01:29:36,599 Speaker 1: on how far back you want to go. I mean, yeah, 1761 01:29:36,640 --> 01:29:38,920 Speaker 1: I think it's it's just recent. Yeah, I think that 1762 01:29:39,000 --> 01:29:40,600 Speaker 1: there was plenty of years that they were able to 1763 01:29:40,640 --> 01:29:42,679 Speaker 1: get the number one or two seed. How many times 1764 01:29:42,720 --> 01:29:45,200 Speaker 1: did they get to buy? Right? Yeah, it's recent like 1765 01:29:45,280 --> 01:29:48,800 Speaker 1: within the last what five years, maybe four or five years, 1766 01:29:48,920 --> 01:29:52,160 Speaker 1: going back to the two, they lost a game that 1767 01:29:52,200 --> 01:29:53,920 Speaker 1: they should not have lost, and it costs them the 1768 01:29:53,920 --> 01:29:57,240 Speaker 1: first round by like that's really what we're talking about, 1769 01:29:57,280 --> 01:30:00,599 Speaker 1: isn't it. You know, maybe two thousand and fift team, Yeah, 1770 01:30:00,640 --> 01:30:02,600 Speaker 1: fifteen is what I'm thinking of. Well, yeah, but that 1771 01:30:02,760 --> 01:30:04,800 Speaker 1: but even that it only cost them the number one seed. 1772 01:30:04,880 --> 01:30:08,439 Speaker 1: It didn't cost them to buy, but it didn't ultimately 1773 01:30:08,600 --> 01:30:10,600 Speaker 1: cost the difference, no doubt, no doubt. I still just 1774 01:30:10,680 --> 01:30:14,000 Speaker 1: think the trend of but that wasn't the game where 1775 01:30:14,040 --> 01:30:15,960 Speaker 1: the Patriots went in and they should have won. No, 1776 01:30:16,080 --> 01:30:18,920 Speaker 1: there was four of them with Denver in the two 1777 01:30:18,920 --> 01:30:20,920 Speaker 1: thousand and fifteen season. They lost four games and they 1778 01:30:20,920 --> 01:30:25,240 Speaker 1: had no business losing. Yeah. Yeah, especially those two in December. Yeah, 1779 01:30:25,840 --> 01:30:29,040 Speaker 1: I feel like we've all accepted that the Patriots are 1780 01:30:29,040 --> 01:30:32,640 Speaker 1: going to play their best football after after like Thanksgiving 1781 01:30:32,720 --> 01:30:35,280 Speaker 1: or November December. But I thought Eric's point earlier this 1782 01:30:35,320 --> 01:30:37,360 Speaker 1: week was interesting that they've lost two in December. The 1783 01:30:37,400 --> 01:30:41,240 Speaker 1: past four years, they've lost consecutive games in December. One year, 1784 01:30:41,280 --> 01:30:44,240 Speaker 1: they last year they lost three in a row. Yeah, 1785 01:30:44,320 --> 01:30:49,240 Speaker 1: I think that's that's out the window. It's different teams, Yeah, 1786 01:30:49,280 --> 01:30:51,439 Speaker 1: it is. It's a different team. It's just become a 1787 01:30:51,520 --> 01:30:53,920 Speaker 1: cliche like that you just accept, like, well, of course 1788 01:30:54,000 --> 01:30:56,160 Speaker 1: it just was Thanksgiving. They're gonna start playing great now. 1789 01:30:56,240 --> 01:30:58,000 Speaker 1: But much much like no one wants to see the 1790 01:30:58,080 --> 01:31:00,240 Speaker 1: Patriots in the playoffs, Well let me know what the 1791 01:31:00,320 --> 01:31:01,880 Speaker 1: options are. I'll tell you if I want to see 1792 01:31:01,880 --> 01:31:04,639 Speaker 1: Because if it's Cleveland or the Patriots, i'd rather see Cleveland. 1793 01:31:04,960 --> 01:31:08,559 Speaker 1: If it's like India the Patriots, I'd rather see the Patriots. Yeah, 1794 01:31:08,920 --> 01:31:13,519 Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor. All right, Craig then for the call, appreciate it. 1795 01:31:14,200 --> 01:31:16,760 Speaker 1: One more, one more Peter in Toronto, what's up? Peter 1796 01:31:17,040 --> 01:31:20,639 Speaker 1: got a hurry Hello, how are you good? Hey? Good? 1797 01:31:20,680 --> 01:31:22,439 Speaker 1: So you know what I need you guys to tell me. 1798 01:31:22,520 --> 01:31:24,880 Speaker 1: I'm crazy because it was a few weeks ago. I 1799 01:31:24,960 --> 01:31:26,519 Speaker 1: think it was after the Cleveland game. A friend of 1800 01:31:26,560 --> 01:31:28,560 Speaker 1: mine had sent me a picture that they seen on 1801 01:31:28,640 --> 01:31:31,120 Speaker 1: social media and it was Steve Belichick on the field. 1802 01:31:31,200 --> 01:31:32,960 Speaker 1: You know they do the family and friends after the game, 1803 01:31:33,360 --> 01:31:36,040 Speaker 1: and he's wearing the Boogeyman shirts that they had printed 1804 01:31:36,120 --> 01:31:38,559 Speaker 1: up in twenty nineteen. I said, like one like those 1805 01:31:38,600 --> 01:31:40,880 Speaker 1: should have been burned a long time ago. But anyway, okay, 1806 01:31:40,880 --> 01:31:42,120 Speaker 1: interesting choice for him to wear it. I was a 1807 01:31:42,160 --> 01:31:45,000 Speaker 1: little bit worried then. I was, you know, when j 1808 01:31:45,160 --> 01:31:47,200 Speaker 1: C was getting his interceptions, they kept picking up the 1809 01:31:47,520 --> 01:31:49,559 Speaker 1: you know, the mister I NT, mister I MT again 1810 01:31:49,560 --> 01:31:51,800 Speaker 1: and so please stop giving you know, the names to 1811 01:31:51,880 --> 01:31:54,000 Speaker 1: this defense and we're going down this rabbit hole again. 1812 01:31:54,000 --> 01:31:56,800 Speaker 1: And now after this week's performance, vanois comment after the 1813 01:31:56,880 --> 01:32:00,200 Speaker 1: game about, you know, less talking and more action, and 1814 01:32:00,320 --> 01:32:02,720 Speaker 1: everyone's you know, making the comparison to twenty nineteen, and 1815 01:32:02,840 --> 01:32:05,320 Speaker 1: what's this defense? Uh, you know, a front runner just 1816 01:32:05,400 --> 01:32:08,280 Speaker 1: you know, picking off you know, bad or weakened opponents 1817 01:32:08,320 --> 01:32:11,560 Speaker 1: and and really not stepping up to um uh you know, 1818 01:32:11,760 --> 01:32:13,680 Speaker 1: some of the better teams are better offenses that they say, 1819 01:32:13,800 --> 01:32:15,920 Speaker 1: and you know, obviously with the with the last two weeks, 1820 01:32:15,960 --> 01:32:18,880 Speaker 1: it's it's seeming like it's closer to that than than not. 1821 01:32:19,040 --> 01:32:21,639 Speaker 1: But I'm wondering, like, is it crazy to think about 1822 01:32:21,680 --> 01:32:24,640 Speaker 1: like the little stuff like the boogeyman, the nicknames and 1823 01:32:24,880 --> 01:32:27,519 Speaker 1: talking like that seems so unpatriot like. Yeah, and it 1824 01:32:27,600 --> 01:32:30,800 Speaker 1: seemed that way in twenty nineteen, and it well poorly. Yeah, 1825 01:32:30,840 --> 01:32:33,240 Speaker 1: I mean that it's kind of happening again if you 1826 01:32:33,320 --> 01:32:36,160 Speaker 1: go back to twenty nineteen, and what we were hearing 1827 01:32:36,520 --> 01:32:39,120 Speaker 1: is not all the people on the defense we're very 1828 01:32:39,400 --> 01:32:42,800 Speaker 1: happy with that Boogeyman moniker like it was van Noy 1829 01:32:42,920 --> 01:32:45,719 Speaker 1: and a group of players, but not everyone on defense 1830 01:32:45,880 --> 01:32:47,920 Speaker 1: like that. The defensive backs didn't like it. Yeah, And 1831 01:32:48,040 --> 01:32:50,840 Speaker 1: so now I find it interesting that now it's van 1832 01:32:50,960 --> 01:32:56,719 Speaker 1: Noy saying no more talk. You know, it's almost like okay, no, bess, 1833 01:32:56,720 --> 01:33:01,439 Speaker 1: he's doing it. Yeah, but exactly right, you know, So 1834 01:33:02,960 --> 01:33:06,120 Speaker 1: now okay, that could be an indication of something going on. 1835 01:33:06,800 --> 01:33:09,719 Speaker 1: I think to like the team now, it's so connected 1836 01:33:09,760 --> 01:33:11,400 Speaker 1: to the past that every time they win a few 1837 01:33:11,439 --> 01:33:14,400 Speaker 1: games or play well, it's they're back. They're back, and 1838 01:33:14,479 --> 01:33:17,040 Speaker 1: they're never gonna be back in that right, they are 1839 01:33:17,080 --> 01:33:18,880 Speaker 1: always going to be a new team now that that 1840 01:33:19,120 --> 01:33:22,600 Speaker 1: needs to like shed themselves of all that, yes and 1841 01:33:22,800 --> 01:33:25,519 Speaker 1: re establish a new identity, because this identity that they've 1842 01:33:25,560 --> 01:33:28,120 Speaker 1: established now and I touched on yesterday, was one that 1843 01:33:28,320 --> 01:33:30,799 Speaker 1: can't really handle adversity, like and you've seen that throughout 1844 01:33:30,840 --> 01:33:33,719 Speaker 1: the season. They haven't been able to turn things around 1845 01:33:33,720 --> 01:33:35,880 Speaker 1: when games aren't going their way. They've lost two in 1846 01:33:35,960 --> 01:33:38,479 Speaker 1: a row multiple times, which I see is a team 1847 01:33:38,560 --> 01:33:41,559 Speaker 1: that can't bounce back or you know, can't make those changes. 1848 01:33:41,600 --> 01:33:43,680 Speaker 1: You know, just to bring up the point again, you 1849 01:33:43,800 --> 01:33:45,439 Speaker 1: lost two straight earlier in the season. You go to 1850 01:33:45,520 --> 01:33:48,200 Speaker 1: Houston and you come out flat again. So you know, 1851 01:33:48,320 --> 01:33:50,960 Speaker 1: thank god, Jacksonville. This weekend is probably going to be 1852 01:33:51,000 --> 01:33:54,080 Speaker 1: a JV squad. But next weekend against Miami and the 1853 01:33:54,160 --> 01:33:57,240 Speaker 1: playoff game most likely, I think, Dan, you'll learn that'll 1854 01:33:57,280 --> 01:33:59,320 Speaker 1: that'll be the true tale of can this team separate 1855 01:33:59,400 --> 01:34:01,840 Speaker 1: themselves from that establish their own identity and like just 1856 01:34:01,920 --> 01:34:04,080 Speaker 1: get rolling. But I think one thing to take from 1857 01:34:04,120 --> 01:34:05,840 Speaker 1: the season is like can we just let the past die? 1858 01:34:05,880 --> 01:34:07,800 Speaker 1: Can we let all that stuff? And I think it'll 1859 01:34:07,840 --> 01:34:09,439 Speaker 1: probably be built in with some of the moves that 1860 01:34:09,479 --> 01:34:10,800 Speaker 1: they have to make on defense, with some of the 1861 01:34:10,920 --> 01:34:13,840 Speaker 1: veterans that'll move on, but just we gotta, we gotta 1862 01:34:13,880 --> 01:34:15,800 Speaker 1: stop with their back. It's just it's not ever going 1863 01:34:15,880 --> 01:34:17,439 Speaker 1: to happen. I agree with Mike, and I think that 1864 01:34:17,520 --> 01:34:19,200 Speaker 1: has been part of it is every time that they 1865 01:34:19,280 --> 01:34:21,880 Speaker 1: have a modicum of success, it's the old Patriots, and 1866 01:34:22,080 --> 01:34:24,320 Speaker 1: this is nobody wants to play them. They're they're gonna 1867 01:34:24,360 --> 01:34:26,720 Speaker 1: fall into the bow. We say that in fancy. I 1868 01:34:26,800 --> 01:34:30,439 Speaker 1: wonder what's being said downstairs. No, but I think what 1869 01:34:31,040 --> 01:34:33,479 Speaker 1: I think there have been some instances this year where 1870 01:34:33,760 --> 01:34:36,840 Speaker 1: they've played like they read their press clippings a little bit. 1871 01:34:37,320 --> 01:34:39,320 Speaker 1: And so this is why I say, it's not always 1872 01:34:39,400 --> 01:34:41,080 Speaker 1: great that you have a raw, raw media. I know 1873 01:34:41,160 --> 01:34:42,599 Speaker 1: you make fun of me for that all the time, 1874 01:34:43,040 --> 01:34:45,080 Speaker 1: but I think sometimes that they listen to it and 1875 01:34:45,120 --> 01:34:46,800 Speaker 1: they hear it. That's where you know, when they're telling 1876 01:34:46,800 --> 01:34:48,920 Speaker 1: them to ignore the noise. Yeah, they're not just telling 1877 01:34:48,920 --> 01:34:51,200 Speaker 1: them to ignore bad stuff. I don't. Yeah, they don't 1878 01:34:51,200 --> 01:34:54,040 Speaker 1: want to happen. They want to hear about how great 1879 01:34:54,040 --> 01:34:55,840 Speaker 1: you are. Either you're never as good as they say 1880 01:34:55,880 --> 01:34:58,760 Speaker 1: you are or as bad. Yeah. The funny thing about 1881 01:34:58,800 --> 01:35:01,280 Speaker 1: that whole like don't listen to the noise thing is 1882 01:35:01,320 --> 01:35:03,760 Speaker 1: that they always throw it back in your face after 1883 01:35:03,840 --> 01:35:06,160 Speaker 1: the game or you guys say we didn't well, I 1884 01:35:06,200 --> 01:35:09,160 Speaker 1: thought you didn't listen to the noise. I think, I mean, 1885 01:35:09,520 --> 01:35:10,960 Speaker 1: and it grow. The noise is certainly a thing, but 1886 01:35:11,040 --> 01:35:13,160 Speaker 1: it's like because like there's another one on that list 1887 01:35:13,240 --> 01:35:15,400 Speaker 1: of things that don't believe or fuel the hype, which 1888 01:35:15,479 --> 01:35:17,560 Speaker 1: is the same you know that, and that's specific to that. 1889 01:35:18,000 --> 01:35:21,240 Speaker 1: They all they all listen. I mean my story is 1890 01:35:21,280 --> 01:35:23,400 Speaker 1: back in the day when myselves was the coach. I'm 1891 01:35:23,760 --> 01:35:25,559 Speaker 1: driving in front of the stadium and he pulls up 1892 01:35:25,600 --> 01:35:28,120 Speaker 1: in his cattle and he's got a stack of heralds 1893 01:35:28,200 --> 01:35:30,919 Speaker 1: that he's throwing out, like, Okay, you read the newspaper, 1894 01:35:31,600 --> 01:35:35,439 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, we all do. All right. Uh, it's 1895 01:35:35,479 --> 01:35:46,479 Speaker 1: that time of the week, Matt. What happened last week? Um? Okay, 1896 01:35:46,640 --> 01:35:53,920 Speaker 1: last week we have Eric thirteen and three wow, followed 1897 01:35:53,920 --> 01:35:57,439 Speaker 1: by Paul at twelve and four, Mike at nine and seven, 1898 01:35:57,720 --> 01:36:01,720 Speaker 1: and Fred eight and eight. Ye see, I'm symbiotic with 1899 01:36:01,840 --> 01:36:05,479 Speaker 1: the team. He's like the Patriots glosses in December. Okay, 1900 01:36:05,720 --> 01:36:09,880 Speaker 1: With the spread, it was Eric again at twelve and four, 1901 01:36:10,360 --> 01:36:14,599 Speaker 1: like Eric knows like like keeps track of it. That's 1902 01:36:14,640 --> 01:36:17,240 Speaker 1: why you know, you guys the book. I got guys 1903 01:36:17,320 --> 01:36:21,479 Speaker 1: keeping me on my toes, followed by Paul at ten 1904 01:36:21,560 --> 01:36:25,480 Speaker 1: and six and Mike and Fred at eight and eighty. 1905 01:36:25,720 --> 01:36:29,479 Speaker 1: So the overall standings tie at the top between Eric 1906 01:36:29,640 --> 01:36:32,639 Speaker 1: and Paul at one fifty four eighty five and one, 1907 01:36:32,720 --> 01:36:36,240 Speaker 1: followed by Mike at one fifty three eighty six and 1908 01:36:36,400 --> 01:36:40,680 Speaker 1: one and Fred cover right there one nine blind in 1909 01:36:40,760 --> 01:36:45,160 Speaker 1: one coming on week nobody's clinched with the spread, Eric 1910 01:36:45,680 --> 01:36:50,200 Speaker 1: stretching the lead stretch, hearing it from the crowd one 1911 01:36:50,520 --> 01:36:55,200 Speaker 1: forty ninety seven and three, followed by Paul and Fred 1912 01:36:55,360 --> 01:36:57,760 Speaker 1: tied at one thirty five, one h two and three. 1913 01:36:58,160 --> 01:37:00,680 Speaker 1: Which I'm telling you, like, I can't believe that I'm 1914 01:37:00,680 --> 01:37:03,200 Speaker 1: thirty two games over five hundred's heading into week seven. 1915 01:37:03,280 --> 01:37:05,719 Speaker 1: It's so depressing that we can't actually bet in Vegas 1916 01:37:05,720 --> 01:37:09,280 Speaker 1: because it'll be retired right now. And well not all 1917 01:37:09,320 --> 01:37:12,840 Speaker 1: of us one twenty seven. And so that's where we 1918 01:37:12,920 --> 01:37:17,240 Speaker 1: stand heading into weeks seventeen. All right, two more weeks WN, 1919 01:37:17,680 --> 01:37:21,679 Speaker 1: not including playoffs. There's no Thursday night game. No Thursday 1920 01:37:21,760 --> 01:37:24,320 Speaker 1: night game. The NFL is giving way to college football, 1921 01:37:25,000 --> 01:37:29,320 Speaker 1: um until something. So we moved to Sunday at one, 1922 01:37:29,960 --> 01:37:32,960 Speaker 1: and we'll start with Philadelphia eight and seven. Make sure 1923 01:37:33,000 --> 01:37:36,000 Speaker 1: I have them all right at Washington six and nine. Okay, 1924 01:37:36,160 --> 01:37:40,040 Speaker 1: Philly at Washington. Philly is favored by three and a half. Correct, Okay, 1925 01:37:40,200 --> 01:37:42,559 Speaker 1: this is an easy one, small type. It is small type. 1926 01:37:42,680 --> 01:37:45,040 Speaker 1: He don't you have your readers? Yeah, I'm gonna take 1927 01:37:45,120 --> 01:37:47,839 Speaker 1: I'll take Philly on the road. I will lay the points. 1928 01:37:48,040 --> 01:37:52,800 Speaker 1: In the divisional round, they're playing a little better. Uh, 1929 01:37:53,240 --> 01:37:56,600 Speaker 1: let's see Philli washing Washington. Yeah. I will take the 1930 01:37:56,720 --> 01:38:00,880 Speaker 1: Eagles as well. Important game for them, not so much 1931 01:38:01,040 --> 01:38:04,160 Speaker 1: for the football team. Uh. And I will lay the 1932 01:38:04,240 --> 01:38:07,000 Speaker 1: three and a half. Yeah, I am with the boys here. 1933 01:38:07,080 --> 01:38:10,479 Speaker 1: I will take the Eagles, who are played pretty well. Actually, 1934 01:38:10,680 --> 01:38:13,759 Speaker 1: the second half of the season Washington season was completely 1935 01:38:13,840 --> 01:38:17,240 Speaker 1: derailed by a variety of things, not the least of 1936 01:38:17,280 --> 01:38:19,400 Speaker 1: which was a fight on the bench between I saw 1937 01:38:19,479 --> 01:38:23,120 Speaker 1: them were college teammates, so that, Um, I'm gonna go 1938 01:38:23,920 --> 01:38:28,400 Speaker 1: yeah right now. I don't know why it happens you 1939 01:38:28,439 --> 01:38:30,400 Speaker 1: get emotional on the bench. I don't think what is 1940 01:38:30,439 --> 01:38:33,040 Speaker 1: that a sign off that's good, that sures that they care? Yeah, 1941 01:38:33,080 --> 01:38:35,639 Speaker 1: they want it right. I'm gonna take Philadelphia both ways. 1942 01:38:35,640 --> 01:38:38,240 Speaker 1: I am a little worried about this spread. Um. I 1943 01:38:38,360 --> 01:38:42,519 Speaker 1: think the Touts might know something here because could they 1944 01:38:42,560 --> 01:38:45,160 Speaker 1: take over for the Sharks, because the Eagles should be 1945 01:38:45,240 --> 01:38:49,599 Speaker 1: a chalk but they are. He ran a half. Yeah 1946 01:38:49,680 --> 01:38:52,439 Speaker 1: against this team a division they have like the same record, 1947 01:38:52,560 --> 01:38:56,000 Speaker 1: I know, but Washington's and shambles. It's like a division 1948 01:38:56,080 --> 01:38:58,000 Speaker 1: game on the road and they don't and a half. 1949 01:38:58,439 --> 01:39:00,240 Speaker 1: There was there like a one one teams eating seven, 1950 01:39:00,240 --> 01:39:01,840 Speaker 1: the other team six and nine. It's not the same 1951 01:39:01,920 --> 01:39:04,960 Speaker 1: record too, I'm sorry. Two games different when you're only 1952 01:39:05,000 --> 01:39:07,400 Speaker 1: playing seventeen, that's a lot, all right, all right, But 1953 01:39:07,479 --> 01:39:11,240 Speaker 1: I will take Philadelphia both ways. Sunday at one, the 1954 01:39:11,400 --> 01:39:16,360 Speaker 1: Rams eleven and four at Baltimore eight and seven, Rams 1955 01:39:16,439 --> 01:39:18,479 Speaker 1: by three and a half. They have the same record. 1956 01:39:23,120 --> 01:39:25,080 Speaker 1: Doesn't seem like Ravens getting a couple of guys back. 1957 01:39:25,160 --> 01:39:28,200 Speaker 1: But I think the Rams are the team here. I 1958 01:39:28,320 --> 01:39:30,599 Speaker 1: think they're they're coming on the right time of year. 1959 01:39:31,000 --> 01:39:33,960 Speaker 1: Take them. Yeah, I'll take the Rams too, just because 1960 01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:37,040 Speaker 1: the Baltimore's struggled so much. I'm very surprised at how 1961 01:39:37,960 --> 01:39:40,920 Speaker 1: Baltimore has been able to stay competitive and stay in 1962 01:39:41,479 --> 01:39:45,600 Speaker 1: these games. Um. I think the Rams are starting to 1963 01:39:45,640 --> 01:39:47,639 Speaker 1: play well though, so I will trust them and lay 1964 01:39:47,680 --> 01:39:50,519 Speaker 1: the three and a half good Mike, I like good 1965 01:39:50,600 --> 01:39:55,280 Speaker 1: use of program. Um. Yeah, I'm gonna take the Rams. Also, 1966 01:39:56,200 --> 01:39:58,559 Speaker 1: I think Tyler Huntley looks like he's coming back to play, 1967 01:39:58,680 --> 01:40:01,639 Speaker 1: which could help the Ravens, but not enough. I think 1968 01:40:01,640 --> 01:40:03,960 Speaker 1: the Rams need this to stay on top of the 1969 01:40:04,080 --> 01:40:06,160 Speaker 1: NFC West. Yeah. I'm gonna go with the Rams both 1970 01:40:06,200 --> 01:40:09,559 Speaker 1: ways too. But if I was a Rams fan, I'd 1971 01:40:09,600 --> 01:40:11,960 Speaker 1: be a little worried about how Stafford's been playing lately. 1972 01:40:12,600 --> 01:40:16,960 Speaker 1: A little careless. Yeah yeah, little devil, make hair your guy, Paul. 1973 01:40:17,800 --> 01:40:19,720 Speaker 1: Evidently the only thing that matters is the last game 1974 01:40:19,800 --> 01:40:21,840 Speaker 1: they play a different position for him this year. I mean, 1975 01:40:21,880 --> 01:40:26,320 Speaker 1: he's on a good team and lighting it up except 1976 01:40:26,320 --> 01:40:29,559 Speaker 1: for the last week. UM Sunday at one Tampa Bay, 1977 01:40:29,640 --> 01:40:33,679 Speaker 1: eleven and four at the Jets four and eleven Tampa 1978 01:40:33,760 --> 01:40:38,439 Speaker 1: by thirteen. Oh yeah, tom Brady, he owns the Jets. 1979 01:40:38,560 --> 01:40:43,479 Speaker 1: I will take Tampa in LA. Where is that? Um? 1980 01:40:45,160 --> 01:40:48,400 Speaker 1: It is in New Jersey. But Tom Brady has played 1981 01:40:48,439 --> 01:40:52,479 Speaker 1: there before and I think that they're gonna roll, So 1982 01:40:52,600 --> 01:40:58,799 Speaker 1: I will take the Bucks both ways. I will definitely 1983 01:40:58,880 --> 01:41:01,559 Speaker 1: take Tampa. I I guess i'll I'll lay the points. Yeah, 1984 01:41:01,640 --> 01:41:04,800 Speaker 1: I was thinking about taking them, but Bucks are missing 1985 01:41:04,840 --> 01:41:08,040 Speaker 1: a lot of players. Yeah, yeah, I'll lay the points 1986 01:41:08,080 --> 01:41:10,519 Speaker 1: anyway though, But so are the Jets aren't They don't 1987 01:41:10,800 --> 01:41:14,800 Speaker 1: they don't have players. Yeah, but seriously, I get their 1988 01:41:14,800 --> 01:41:16,639 Speaker 1: starters are out of there any different than the Scrubs. 1989 01:41:16,640 --> 01:41:21,639 Speaker 1: I'm gonna replay. Yeah, the Bucks both ways. There Sunday 1990 01:41:21,680 --> 01:41:25,080 Speaker 1: at one Miami eight and seven at Tennessee ten and five. 1991 01:41:25,479 --> 01:41:28,120 Speaker 1: First big one, big, first, big one for the Patriots 1992 01:41:28,200 --> 01:41:32,720 Speaker 1: here um efforting to find this one. I don't know 1993 01:41:32,880 --> 01:41:35,080 Speaker 1: if they listed it, Paul. I think there might have 1994 01:41:35,120 --> 01:41:37,400 Speaker 1: been an overset there. We go Tennessee by three and 1995 01:41:37,439 --> 01:41:41,439 Speaker 1: a half. Tennessee at Tennessee. There were going at Tennessee 1996 01:41:41,640 --> 01:41:45,000 Speaker 1: three and a half for the p So I got 1997 01:41:45,080 --> 01:41:48,080 Speaker 1: to balance my Patriots fandom. But I do think the 1998 01:41:48,160 --> 01:41:50,920 Speaker 1: Titans at home coming on a little bit, getting a 1999 01:41:50,960 --> 01:41:53,320 Speaker 1: little bit healthier. Still know Derrick Henry, but I think 2000 01:41:53,400 --> 01:41:55,920 Speaker 1: that they've got enough. I think they've got enough to 2001 01:41:56,240 --> 01:41:58,479 Speaker 1: knock Miami off and help the Patriots out. I'm gonna 2002 01:41:58,479 --> 01:42:00,680 Speaker 1: take Tennessee. I agree. I think it's gonna be a 2003 01:42:00,760 --> 01:42:05,599 Speaker 1: tough road for TWA and the mates to hoe over there. 2004 01:42:05,640 --> 01:42:09,200 Speaker 1: So I will take the home team Titans both ways. Yeah, 2005 01:42:09,280 --> 01:42:11,599 Speaker 1: I think Tennessee wins the game, but I'm gonna take 2006 01:42:11,640 --> 01:42:15,479 Speaker 1: the oh the hoof, I'll take the hook. The Tennessee wins, 2007 01:42:15,560 --> 01:42:19,200 Speaker 1: but Miami covers. Yeah, I'm gonna do what Paul did. 2008 01:42:19,560 --> 01:42:23,240 Speaker 1: I'm tempted to take Miami, but I don't have faith 2009 01:42:23,280 --> 01:42:27,400 Speaker 1: in Tuah. That's the thing for me. You know, sucks. Yeah, 2010 01:42:28,840 --> 01:42:32,880 Speaker 1: that's two. That's two. You're having a strong pick segment Sunday. 2011 01:42:32,920 --> 01:42:35,360 Speaker 1: At one, play the hits, Mike, play the hit. Here's 2012 01:42:35,400 --> 01:42:38,679 Speaker 1: the other one. Raid is eight and seven at Indie 2013 01:42:38,840 --> 01:42:42,519 Speaker 1: nine and six, Indie by six and a half. Six 2014 01:42:42,600 --> 01:42:44,920 Speaker 1: and a half. So we the Sharps know something. I'm 2015 01:42:44,920 --> 01:42:47,720 Speaker 1: not sure on Carson Wentz if they know something back, Yeah, 2016 01:42:47,800 --> 01:42:51,719 Speaker 1: Darius Leonard is back. Um, I saw that. I'm gonna 2017 01:42:51,720 --> 01:42:54,800 Speaker 1: take Indie I'm gonna take They got enough. I just 2018 01:42:54,840 --> 01:42:57,280 Speaker 1: I can't pick against Jonathan Taylor and Vegas to sew 2019 01:42:57,320 --> 01:42:58,800 Speaker 1: up and down all year. I'm I'm gonna take Indie 2020 01:42:58,800 --> 01:43:02,280 Speaker 1: at home. What are the sharps? No, this is this 2021 01:43:02,479 --> 01:43:07,600 Speaker 1: is a tough one. I don't think this is a 2022 01:43:07,680 --> 01:43:10,000 Speaker 1: tough one. Well, you don't have to be mean, Yeah, 2023 01:43:10,000 --> 01:43:12,439 Speaker 1: you don't have to. I mean it's tough for him. 2024 01:43:12,479 --> 01:43:15,439 Speaker 1: It's not just because algebra comes easy to you. Doesn't 2025 01:43:15,479 --> 01:43:18,040 Speaker 1: mean everybody else. It's the Wentz factor that makes it tough. 2026 01:43:18,080 --> 01:43:23,240 Speaker 1: Freend not I'm sorry myomore year. I'm gonna take Vegas. 2027 01:43:23,960 --> 01:43:26,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take I'm gonna take Vegas. That's a big one.

He's a sharp what does 2030 01:43:33,640 --> 01:43:38,640 Speaker 1: he now? Yeah, I'm gonna take Indie. UM tempted to 2031 01:43:38,680 --> 01:43:41,000 Speaker 1: take the points, but I won't. I think on the road, Uh, 2032 01:43:41,360 --> 01:43:43,719 Speaker 1: the Raiders will have trouble. I'm gonna go with Indie 2033 01:43:43,760 --> 01:43:47,759 Speaker 1: both ways as well. Sunday at one, Kansas City eleven 2034 01:43:47,840 --> 01:43:51,800 Speaker 1: and four at Cincinnati nine and six, Kansas City by 2035 01:43:51,840 --> 01:43:56,720 Speaker 1: five and a half. Good game, good, good game. Uh Man, 2036 01:43:56,920 --> 01:43:59,600 Speaker 1: I do. We believe in Cincinnati. I gotta I got 2037 01:43:59,600 --> 01:44:01,519 Speaker 1: a little bit of Joe Burrow crush after last week's 2038 01:44:01,560 --> 01:44:07,320 Speaker 1: press conference going on. I'm a fan. Um, yeah, I'm 2039 01:44:07,360 --> 01:44:09,960 Speaker 1: gonna take Kansas City, but I think since he holds 2040 01:44:10,000 --> 01:44:12,879 Speaker 1: in there, I'm gonna take the points. Do winn't likewise? 2041 01:44:13,000 --> 01:44:14,920 Speaker 1: Do so? I agree? I think you know, the Chiefs 2042 01:44:15,000 --> 01:44:17,360 Speaker 1: are playing their best ball right now when it counts. 2043 01:44:18,040 --> 01:44:20,400 Speaker 1: So is Cincinnati and they're at home. So I give them, 2044 01:44:20,880 --> 01:44:23,599 Speaker 1: uh some credit for being able to keep this close. 2045 01:44:23,680 --> 01:44:26,720 Speaker 1: But Chiefs win, Bengals cover. Yeah, I'm gonna do the 2046 01:44:26,800 --> 01:44:28,720 Speaker 1: same thing. I'll take the points. Yea. If it's a 2047 01:44:28,760 --> 01:44:31,000 Speaker 1: field goal game, I will two.

You didn't play last week, Right, I'm 2054 01:44:52,560 --> 01:44:56,400 Speaker 1: just gonna assume that somebody's playing Chicago buy six. I 2055 01:44:56,520 --> 01:44:58,080 Speaker 1: think I'll find him on the sheet either. Yeah, I 2056 01:44:58,120 --> 01:45:00,160 Speaker 1: found it six have I missed any of them? No?

I'll take the points. I'm not. I think 2073 01:46:00,439 --> 01:46:03,160 Speaker 1: Buffalo has got a little confidence back, especially after last 2074 01:46:03,200 --> 01:46:05,559 Speaker 1: week and at home they know they have to continue 2075 01:46:05,600 --> 01:46:07,920 Speaker 1: to take care of business while Kansas City and Cincinnati 2076 01:46:08,040 --> 01:46:10,040 Speaker 1: and those kind of teams are playing well, they have 2077 01:46:10,160 --> 01:46:11,920 Speaker 1: to do the same thing. Beat up a team at 2078 01:46:11,960 --> 01:46:14,840 Speaker 1: home that they should beat up. They win and cover.

I don't know if they made their decision yet. Mmmmmmmmmmm.

I think Davis Mills is playing Okay. 2091 01:47:00,920 --> 01:47:05,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take San franc to win and cover at home. 2092 01:47:05,280 --> 01:47:09,080 Speaker 1: I think last week's win by Houston was just out 2093 01:47:09,120 --> 01:47:11,799 Speaker 1: of left field. I don't see them repeating that again 2094 01:47:12,360 --> 01:47:16,720 Speaker 1: on the road. Uh. So you I went both ways 2095 01:47:16,760 --> 01:47:19,719 Speaker 1: with San franci Yeah, I want to take uh the points. 2096 01:47:19,880 --> 01:47:22,400 Speaker 1: If Garoppolo is not playing, I'll take San Francis good 2097 01:47:22,400 --> 01:47:24,720 Speaker 1: to win, but I'll take the points. What was that 2098 01:47:24,840 --> 01:47:27,679 Speaker 1: number again? Yeah, I'm gonna take the points as well. 2099 01:47:28,800 --> 01:47:32,559 Speaker 1: Uncertain Sunday four or five, denverse seven and eight at 2100 01:47:32,600 --> 01:47:35,200 Speaker 1: the lack eight and seven? What did you take fred 2101 01:47:35,240 --> 01:47:37,920 Speaker 1: San Francisco with then you took the points? They San 2102 01:47:37,960 --> 01:47:41,280 Speaker 1: Francisco wins? Yes, right now? Did you take the points 2103 01:47:41,400 --> 01:47:44,559 Speaker 1: or not? They're not gonna cover? So he didn't take 2104 01:47:44,600 --> 01:47:46,360 Speaker 1: the points? No, wait, he did take the point. He 2105 01:47:46,360 --> 01:47:48,160 Speaker 1: did it. He said they're not going to cover. Yeah, 2106 01:47:48,240 --> 01:47:53,840 Speaker 1: you got Houston Houston. Yeah, not to win though he 2107 01:47:53,920 --> 01:47:58,519 Speaker 1: almost almost almost from it's my fault because I was 2108 01:47:58,680 --> 01:48:02,720 Speaker 1: looking up Garoppolo st it's almost paying to reevaluated today? 2109 01:48:02,800 --> 01:48:05,320 Speaker 1: Still no update, Yeah, that's what I thought. Now charges? 2110 01:48:05,320 --> 01:48:09,320 Speaker 1: Would you haven't her number chargers by six six? So 2111 01:48:09,400 --> 01:48:11,040 Speaker 1: I was just seeing justin fields like leading the league 2112 01:48:11,040 --> 01:48:14,639 Speaker 1: interceptions the last few weeks. Uh, some sloppy ball security, 2113 01:48:14,680 --> 01:48:20,960 Speaker 1: tough loss for them or Herbert justin Herbert analysis Herbert Herbert. Uh, 2114 01:48:22,120 --> 01:48:23,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take the charges to win, but I'm gonna 2115 01:48:24,040 --> 01:48:27,080 Speaker 1: take the points for denver Um. Seeing a lot of 2116 01:48:27,160 --> 01:48:29,639 Speaker 1: hype about their defense and how they're playing, so I'm 2117 01:48:29,680 --> 01:48:33,519 Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna think they keep it close. I am 2118 01:48:33,640 --> 01:48:35,519 Speaker 1: laying way too many points this week, and that does 2119 01:48:35,560 --> 01:48:37,880 Speaker 1: not bode well. I have a feeling, but I'm gonna 2120 01:48:37,920 --> 01:48:39,720 Speaker 1: do it again. I think the Chargers win and cover. 2121 01:48:40,200 --> 01:48:42,760 Speaker 1: Trust yourself. Yeah, I'm gonna take the team I have 2122 01:48:42,800 --> 01:48:44,920 Speaker 1: in this long I'll take the Chargers to bounce back 2123 01:48:44,960 --> 01:48:49,559 Speaker 1: and I'll lay the points. Yeah. Um, I will take 2124 01:48:49,600 --> 01:48:53,360 Speaker 1: the charges as well. It's a rare non Denver game, 2125 01:48:53,400 --> 01:48:57,400 Speaker 1: though it's weird. Sunday, four twenty five, Carolina five and 2126 01:48:57,479 --> 01:49:02,200 Speaker 1: ten at seven and eight. Uh, New Orleans by seven 2127 01:49:03,160 --> 01:49:11,000 Speaker 1: wins seven yuck, and Carolina ain't got much Cam Newton bench. 2128 01:49:11,120 --> 01:49:14,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take New Orleans. I'll just I'll just lay 2129 01:49:14,200 --> 01:49:17,120 Speaker 1: the points. I don't know who's the quarterback for New 2130 01:49:17,200 --> 01:49:22,040 Speaker 1: Orleans this week. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I think it's 2131 01:49:22,080 --> 01:49:23,920 Speaker 1: Book again. I think really, I think it might be 2132 01:49:24,400 --> 01:49:26,880 Speaker 1: unless those guys. Those guys can probably come back right 2133 01:49:27,080 --> 01:49:29,679 Speaker 1: five days. I saw something on there's no rules anymore, 2134 01:49:29,680 --> 01:49:31,800 Speaker 1: so everybody can play, no worry about it. So Book 2135 01:49:31,880 --> 01:49:34,519 Speaker 1: may not be the quarterback. I don't know. Let's check. 2136 01:49:34,960 --> 01:49:37,719 Speaker 1: I hear there's a rift in the Saints locker room book, 2137 01:49:37,720 --> 01:49:41,320 Speaker 1: and his teammates aren't on the same page. But maybe 2138 01:49:41,360 --> 01:49:45,920 Speaker 1: they could be bound together. Could be right if they 2139 01:49:46,000 --> 01:49:49,000 Speaker 1: turn the page. Right, it's a new chapter. Right, New Orleans. Right, 2140 01:49:49,960 --> 01:49:54,680 Speaker 1: you guys made me want to burn books, burn book. Sorry. Uh, 2141 01:49:54,840 --> 01:49:59,559 Speaker 1: New Orleans wins. New Orleans wins, but I if Book 2142 01:49:59,640 --> 01:50:02,760 Speaker 1: is playing again, I don't know. Uh, if I got them, 2143 01:50:05,720 --> 01:50:09,080 Speaker 1: I'll take the points for the Yeah, I'll take New Orleans, 2144 01:50:09,160 --> 01:50:11,760 Speaker 1: but at that offense, I cannot lay seven points with. 2145 01:50:11,840 --> 01:50:13,840 Speaker 1: I don't care who's playing quarterback for the Saints. I'll 2146 01:50:13,840 --> 01:50:15,760 Speaker 1: take New Orleans to win the game, but I'll take 2147 01:50:15,800 --> 01:50:18,839 Speaker 1: Carolina to cover. Yeah, me too. I mean Carolina's defense 2148 01:50:19,000 --> 01:50:22,439 Speaker 1: is still still pretty terrible. Yeah, and if Book plays, 2149 01:50:22,520 --> 01:50:25,120 Speaker 1: I mean, right, so what happened last week night? So 2150 01:50:25,280 --> 01:50:28,160 Speaker 1: I'll do the same thing. Sunday four twenty five, Detroit 2151 01:50:28,320 --> 01:50:32,680 Speaker 1: two twelve and one at Seattle five and ten Seattle 2152 01:50:32,920 --> 01:50:36,400 Speaker 1: by seven. Seattle. I've seen a lot of positive talk 2153 01:50:36,439 --> 01:50:41,240 Speaker 1: about Detroit Ruaria huh. So, I mean when the ball 2154 01:50:41,280 --> 01:50:43,679 Speaker 1: just gets thrown to you, the defensive backs can catch it. Yeah, 2155 01:50:44,439 --> 01:50:48,640 Speaker 1: how that works? I'm gonna I gotta take Seattle. I 2156 01:50:48,720 --> 01:50:51,000 Speaker 1: gotta take Seattle at home. But I'm gonna just split 2157 01:50:51,040 --> 01:50:53,400 Speaker 1: it and I'll take the points for Detroit. I'm thinking 2158 01:50:53,439 --> 01:50:55,720 Speaker 1: about doing the same. I'm definitely taking Seattle to win 2159 01:50:55,840 --> 01:51:01,679 Speaker 1: the game, only because they're at home. But Detroit's got something, 2160 01:51:02,880 --> 01:51:05,040 Speaker 1: all right, I'll take I'll do what the same as Deuce. Yeah, 2161 01:51:05,080 --> 01:51:07,000 Speaker 1: I am too. I just I just think they play hard. 2162 01:51:07,160 --> 01:51:11,120 Speaker 1: I don't know why. I don't think Campbell I don't 2163 01:51:11,120 --> 01:51:12,880 Speaker 1: think knows what he's doing, but they play hard for him. 2164 01:51:12,920 --> 01:51:16,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna break legs, so I'll take Seattle. I'm gonna 2165 01:51:16,800 --> 01:51:22,280 Speaker 1: take Seattle both ways, so Seattle covers. Correct. Yeah. Sunday 2166 01:51:22,320 --> 01:51:29,960 Speaker 1: four twenty five, Arizona ten and five at Dallas off, 2167 01:51:30,040 --> 01:51:31,800 Speaker 1: We'll have nothing to talk about post games, so we 2168 01:51:31,800 --> 01:51:34,240 Speaker 1: can watch this game. Dallas by five and a half, 2169 01:51:34,680 --> 01:51:39,360 Speaker 1: especially after the Jags forfeit and have a joint joint practice. Yeah. Yeah, 2170 01:51:39,360 --> 01:51:41,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Dallas at home. I just I think 2171 01:51:41,400 --> 01:51:45,600 Speaker 1: that the Cardinals are a different team without Nuke. I 2172 01:51:45,680 --> 01:51:48,839 Speaker 1: just I like Dallas at home. I'll take the Cowboys 2173 01:51:48,880 --> 01:51:58,719 Speaker 1: at home as well. Um, who'd they blow up last week? Washington, Washington. Yeah, something. 2174 01:51:58,960 --> 01:52:01,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I can't believe Arizona is as bad as 2175 01:52:01,200 --> 01:52:02,760 Speaker 1: they've been the last few weeks. I don't think they 2176 01:52:02,760 --> 01:52:04,320 Speaker 1: were as good as they were in the beginning. Is 2177 01:52:04,360 --> 01:52:06,519 Speaker 1: the number one seed the whole way through somewhere in 2178 01:52:06,520 --> 01:52:09,760 Speaker 1: the middle, and I still don't trust the Cowboys, So 2179 01:52:09,920 --> 01:52:13,240 Speaker 1: I will take the cardinal points. I'm gonna take Dallas 2180 01:52:13,320 --> 01:52:15,400 Speaker 1: both ways. I think that they sort of found a 2181 01:52:15,439 --> 01:52:18,519 Speaker 1: little something offensively last week. I think it carries over 2182 01:52:18,720 --> 01:52:24,920 Speaker 1: Paul's correct Dallas both ways. Sunday eight, fourth place minute 2183 01:52:25,240 --> 01:52:28,559 Speaker 1: Minnesota seven and eight at green Bay twelve and three. 2184 01:52:29,320 --> 01:52:33,160 Speaker 1: Green Bay by six and a half. Could be Rogers's 2185 01:52:33,240 --> 01:52:36,439 Speaker 1: last I don't know, Oh, could be. Could be. Yeah, 2186 01:52:36,560 --> 01:52:38,720 Speaker 1: feeling out for the year, I'm gonna take green Bay. 2187 01:52:38,760 --> 01:52:42,080 Speaker 1: I'll lay the points at home. Feeland's out for the year. Huh, 2188 01:52:43,160 --> 01:52:46,280 Speaker 1: he's not feeling it. I thought he was close to 2189 01:52:47,840 --> 01:52:56,240 Speaker 1: yet a season ending surgery. I will go pack go 2190 01:52:56,600 --> 01:52:59,200 Speaker 1: both ways. Yeah, me too. I think the Packers are 2191 01:52:59,240 --> 01:53:01,639 Speaker 1: just better. Yeah, it's in green Bay two, so I'll 2192 01:53:01,680 --> 01:53:05,920 Speaker 1: take them both ways. Cleveland, this is Monday night on, 2193 01:53:06,640 --> 01:53:09,840 Speaker 1: and be sure no Monday Night on. That's right. We 2194 01:53:09,960 --> 01:53:12,840 Speaker 1: missed it the Green Bay games on it right? Sure? 2195 01:53:13,840 --> 01:53:18,320 Speaker 1: Um this is on ESPN Cleveland seven and eight at 2196 01:53:18,439 --> 01:53:24,000 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh seven, seven and one, Cleveland by three. Wow, Big Ben, 2197 01:53:24,160 --> 01:53:27,200 Speaker 1: This could be it. This could be it. So is 2198 01:53:27,200 --> 01:53:30,960 Speaker 1: he a little bit more motivated his last game? Possibly 2199 01:53:31,080 --> 01:53:35,320 Speaker 1: at Hindfield the clock strikes twelve, I'm gonna say no, 2200 01:53:35,600 --> 01:53:40,519 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give Cleveland the ups or road win. Yeah. 2201 01:53:40,600 --> 01:53:42,519 Speaker 1: This is a tough one because I could totally see 2202 01:53:42,560 --> 01:53:46,960 Speaker 1: the Steelers like rallying behind him and like, because they 2203 01:53:47,000 --> 01:53:49,920 Speaker 1: all know that he's probably yeah right. But I just 2204 01:53:50,040 --> 01:53:52,160 Speaker 1: think Cleveland needs it more and they got a bunch 2205 01:53:52,200 --> 01:53:55,000 Speaker 1: of guys back this week, didn't they. So I will 2206 01:53:55,040 --> 01:53:58,080 Speaker 1: take the Browns to win and cover as well. Don't 2207 01:53:58,120 --> 01:54:00,599 Speaker 1: feel great about it, but I'll do it. I wish 2208 01:54:00,640 --> 01:54:02,960 Speaker 1: I could get the result of that Cincinnati game first, 2209 01:54:03,040 --> 01:54:05,439 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna take I'm gonna get I'm gonna take 2210 01:54:05,439 --> 01:54:08,320 Speaker 1: Cleveland in this game because I'm going to assume that 2211 01:54:08,400 --> 01:54:10,920 Speaker 1: Kansas City is gonna take care of the Bengals and 2212 01:54:11,040 --> 01:54:12,960 Speaker 1: the Browns will then have something to play for. That's 2213 01:54:13,200 --> 01:54:16,800 Speaker 1: that was my question. So if the Browns win their 2214 01:54:16,880 --> 01:54:19,840 Speaker 1: last two games, they win thee. Yeah, isn't that crazy 2215 01:54:19,840 --> 01:54:21,920 Speaker 1: at nine and eight? Yeah, so I'm gonna go with 2216 01:54:22,080 --> 01:54:26,120 Speaker 1: the play Cincinnati. I'm gonna go with Browns as well. Um, yeah, 2217 01:54:26,200 --> 01:54:29,639 Speaker 1: I mean Pittsburgh. They've done it throughout the season where 2218 01:54:29,640 --> 01:54:31,479 Speaker 1: they've risen up when you thought they were dead and 2219 01:54:31,560 --> 01:54:35,480 Speaker 1: they pull off a win. But yeah, I think Cleveland. 2220 01:54:35,880 --> 01:54:37,960 Speaker 1: Cleveland had just too much more to play for in 2221 01:54:38,080 --> 01:54:42,520 Speaker 1: this game, So I'll go with the Browns. Now we 2222 01:54:42,640 --> 01:54:46,760 Speaker 1: go back to Sunday at one, and thank god, Sunday 2223 01:54:46,800 --> 01:54:48,560 Speaker 1: at one. Don't you just love those Sunday at one 2224 01:54:48,600 --> 01:54:53,040 Speaker 1: games the best? The New England Patriots at nine and 2225 01:54:53,200 --> 01:54:59,120 Speaker 1: six host the Jacksonville Jaguars at two and thirteen. Uh, Patriots, 2226 01:54:59,200 --> 01:55:03,360 Speaker 1: biggest spread of the fifteen and a half. Yeah, I 2227 01:55:03,440 --> 01:55:05,600 Speaker 1: got it correct on all of your This is where 2228 01:55:05,640 --> 01:55:07,480 Speaker 1: I go the Sharps know something and Paul says, yeah, 2229 01:55:07,520 --> 01:55:10,520 Speaker 1: the Jaguars stink. Yeah, the Jags are not even the Jags, 2230 01:55:10,720 --> 01:55:14,440 Speaker 1: the JV the JV Jag the win team. I can't 2231 01:55:14,480 --> 01:55:17,800 Speaker 1: imagine what that looks like. I think the Patriots better role. 2232 01:55:18,480 --> 01:55:22,160 Speaker 1: I'll take New England twenty eighth to six. I think 2233 01:55:22,200 --> 01:55:26,480 Speaker 1: I picked seventeen thirteen on the TV show the other 2234 01:55:26,600 --> 01:55:29,160 Speaker 1: day right before, like, you know, the other half of 2235 01:55:29,240 --> 01:55:31,720 Speaker 1: the Jaguars roster. You amending that because I already wrote 2236 01:55:31,760 --> 01:55:34,480 Speaker 1: everybody down for Patriots. Oh yeah, I am taking the 2237 01:55:34,520 --> 01:55:37,720 Speaker 1: Patriots to win. Yeah, but the points, um yeah, yeah, 2238 01:55:37,760 --> 01:55:43,720 Speaker 1: but I'll take the Jags points. Oh boy, I have 2239 01:55:43,800 --> 01:55:48,040 Speaker 1: to have a cross. Yeah yeah, I just I don't 2240 01:55:48,080 --> 01:55:50,040 Speaker 1: like that. I don't like the way they played the 2241 01:55:50,120 --> 01:55:52,640 Speaker 1: last two weeks, and I don't I don't know. I 2242 01:55:52,720 --> 01:55:55,400 Speaker 1: don't know if they can do what we all expect 2243 01:55:55,440 --> 01:55:57,040 Speaker 1: them to do, which is, you know, put up fifty 2244 01:55:57,080 --> 01:55:59,680 Speaker 1: points against this team. Now, maybe they will, but I 2245 01:55:59,720 --> 01:56:01,800 Speaker 1: think I need to see. I need to see. I 2246 01:56:01,880 --> 01:56:04,360 Speaker 1: think I think if they get to seventeen they cover. 2247 01:56:05,280 --> 01:56:11,680 Speaker 1: Um right, well, yeah, I just I know the Patriots 2248 01:56:11,760 --> 01:56:13,360 Speaker 1: have a lot to play for. They gotta get back 2249 01:56:13,400 --> 01:56:16,120 Speaker 1: on the track. I don't think this game will be 2250 01:56:16,160 --> 01:56:19,440 Speaker 1: competitive even for a little while, right, thirty three to nine? 2251 01:56:19,760 --> 01:56:24,840 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I uh. I don't like my pick. But 2252 01:56:24,920 --> 01:56:27,880 Speaker 1: the spread has gone down a point since when it opened, 2253 01:56:27,960 --> 01:56:31,040 Speaker 1: So that's that worries something on. But no, I'm gonna 2254 01:56:31,080 --> 01:56:34,560 Speaker 1: look to the sharps. No, right, but I am gonna 2255 01:56:34,560 --> 01:56:37,720 Speaker 1: go with the Patriots both ways, thirty eight to six, 2256 01:56:39,360 --> 01:56:44,480 Speaker 1: thirty eight to six Patriots role and the game's over early. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 2257 01:56:44,520 --> 01:56:47,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm gonna try to embrace just the stress free, 2258 01:56:47,280 --> 01:56:50,680 Speaker 1: meaningless game. Just you're not gonna give any reverse nods 2259 01:56:50,680 --> 01:56:52,680 Speaker 1: in the middle of the second quarter. This one good. 2260 01:56:52,760 --> 01:56:55,760 Speaker 1: Oh just wait, just wait till it's ten three Jags 2261 01:56:55,760 --> 01:56:59,240 Speaker 1: at halftime, it's gonna be looking like Ryan Grigson and 2262 01:56:59,320 --> 01:57:01,960 Speaker 1: that the flight a game. They're down at behalf of 2263 01:57:02,040 --> 01:57:08,040 Speaker 1: this game. Season's over. Oh, don't even come on. So 2264 01:57:08,200 --> 01:57:11,040 Speaker 1: we're all taking the Patriots. Yeah, let's taking the points, 2265 01:57:11,080 --> 01:57:13,000 Speaker 1: all right.
