I don't like to give it 29 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,960 Speaker 6: away because you never know what's gonna happen. Maybe somebody 30 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,680 Speaker 6: that we didn't expect will come on and bump somebody 31 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 6: else off. Who knows, But so it's gonna be wild. 32 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 6: But anyway, it's state five, five past five hundred. As always, 33 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 6: podcast at Patriots dot com is the way to email us. 34 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 6: So guys, let's let's talk a little football before we 35 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 6: get into all the other crazy stuff. Any you know, 36 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 6: Robert Spallaine I saw in his availability today says he's 37 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 6: one hundred percent sure that he'll be playing. 38 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 7: That's good news, good news. 39 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 8: What percentage will he be playing at that's probably the 40 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:10,239 Speaker 8: bigger question. But he's a huge part of that defense, leader, communicator, tackler, 41 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,079 Speaker 8: huge to get him back, and I think that would 42 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 8: be a great boost for the Patriots defense. They need him, 43 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:16,519 Speaker 8: They need him in this game for sure. 44 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:16,799 Speaker 1: Yeah. 45 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 9: A good sign though that he's feeling that strong about it. 46 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 9: And we'll see about Harold Landry too. But I agree 47 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 9: with Mike. I think Splaine's presence in the middle, if 48 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 9: for nothing else, the communication of it all, keeping that 49 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 9: whole group connected. I think that all the players talked 50 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,959 Speaker 9: about the differences when he returned. And I think there's 51 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 9: no disrespect to the guys that played, because I think 52 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 9: they played well. You know, Christian Ellis and Jack Gibbons, 53 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,359 Speaker 9: those guys, they filled in very well. But I think 54 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 9: there's definitely a loss there without Splaine. 55 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 7: Yeah, no question. 56 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,360 Speaker 6: So you know, staying at the defense, we have a 57 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 6: kind of commute every day that we have to take 58 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 6: two we get here from the team hotel. We all 59 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 6: we got and it's similar to the commute I take 60 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 6: every day from home to Foxborough. 61 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 7: So I have a chance to reread thoughts. 62 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, thoughts with Fred and you know, for our betting 63 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 6: friends out there, I know that we're not allowed to, 64 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 6: but you know we're kind of touts. 65 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: Well you are, yeah, you are, and you are eleven 66 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 1: and one. 67 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 6: I was thinking that it might be good value. And 68 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 6: I don't know if any of the books or the 69 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 6: houses are offering this proposition, but if they're not, you know, 70 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 6: uh you should. 71 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 7: Milton Williams M V. P Yeah. 72 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 9: Yeah, I think he'll he'll have odds because he won't 73 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 9: have the best odds. No, it'll be really hard. It's 74 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 9: probably been I don't know, twenty years. 75 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 7: Yep, Aaron Donald didn't have an m VP. 76 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 1: I don't believe. I believe Cooper Cup won. 77 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 9: The Mvpper Bowl, right, but Aaron Donald absolutely could have been. 78 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 9: And that kind of shows you how difficult it is. 79 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 9: So you'd you'd get excellent odds ready. 80 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 7: Right for that pick. And that's why I think it's 81 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 7: and that's a good it's good value. 82 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: It's a good one because I think it's a possibility. 83 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, And I think that for the Patriots to win 84 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 6: this game, he's got to play have a good game. 85 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 7: Yeah, to back the up. 86 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 8: Fred Seattle one of the worst offenses, if not the 87 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 8: worst on third and long. So that's Milton Williams time 88 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 8: to shine. They can get him into third and long 89 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 8: opportunities for mil Williams. 90 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 6: To con So, you know, I often have my feels, 91 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 6: and I'm feeling it. I'm feeling Milton Williams as a 92 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 6: big factor in this game and a big reason why 93 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 6: the Patriots might come away with a victors. 94 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,039 Speaker 1: Pilton Williams feel about Freddie feeling him. 95 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 8: He's getting felt up by Freddie Fields. I love it, though, 96 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 8: Fred I mean, mil Williams has been outstanding, and I 97 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 8: think you don't know what you got till it's gone, right, Paul, 98 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 8: And when Milton Williams went out of. 99 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:41,839 Speaker 7: The lineup, you saw it. 100 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 8: You saw a little dip in the play. You know, 101 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 8: not just the past defense, but the run defense too. 102 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 8: So he's a super disruptive guy. He walks guards back 103 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 8: into the backfield all the time. 104 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 7: They're gonna need him. 105 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 8: And I just love the experience too, of him playing 106 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 8: in the Super Bowl last year. 107 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 7: Knowing what it takes. 108 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 8: He's not gonna be overwhelmed by this moment. And I 109 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 8: think that's up for him to come out and play 110 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 8: loose and free and play fast and play well. 111 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:07,280 Speaker 9: Absolutely, And if I'm not mistaken, I'd have to look 112 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,159 Speaker 9: this up. And you know me, I'm not not much 113 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 9: on the on the research for the year I go 114 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 9: off the Dome, you know, off the Dome, I would 115 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 9: say Richard Dent against the. 116 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 7: Patriots, Wow, okay wow. 117 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 9: But I don't know if there's been a defensive lineman definitely, 118 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 9: Randy White Harvey Martin split it in seventy seven Duce 119 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 9: in Super Bowl twelve, again off the dome. 120 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 8: Yeah, it's interesting that for that defense, it's so like 121 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 8: the forty six defense, it was just kind of known 122 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 8: as a singular, singular entity and not really Richard Dent specifically. 123 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:37,280 Speaker 7: So I'm interesting that he. 124 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 4: Got sure that Richard Dent won the MVP. 125 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 8: Having just rewatched that game, I can attest just about 126 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 8: anybody on the. 127 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 6: Bears defense ninety six against Green Bay who was MVP. 128 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 6: Does Howard kick off return? Yeah, that's right. Oh man, 129 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 6: I was gonna say Reggie White could have easily had 130 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 6: it too. 131 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean I I wouldn't given it to someone 132 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 9: on offense, But what about Brett Fervor, Yeah, I mean 133 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 9: you could have given it to I think Desmond how 134 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 9: It was probably a good, good pick though, Yeah, had 135 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 9: a had. 136 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 4: A major impact in the game. 137 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 7: Ye, all right, So I was just thinking about that. 138 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,919 Speaker 6: Then the other thing we were talking last night, you know, 139 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 6: at the hotel, and we were talking about Gonzo and uh, 140 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 6: I think I forget which one of you said that 141 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 6: they were told by a coach that he is a 142 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 6: photographic metor. 143 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:27,919 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, I think that was Evan that uh that 144 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 7: shared that with us. Uh. 145 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 8: Really impressive. I mean it's uh, I mean, what this 146 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 8: guy's got like all the athletic gifts in the universe, 147 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 8: and he gets a photographic memory too, What do I get? 148 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 6: So we're gonna have to test that. We're gonna uh, 149 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 6: We're gonna have. 150 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 7: To show him, don't get quit the availabilities. 151 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 6: This week we'll have Evan or somebody, uh, you know, 152 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 6: tests that photographic memory. But that's interesting because they say 153 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 6: that he often corrects the coaches. Yeah, he says no, no, no, 154 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 6: that's not how it is, you know, and he's he's 155 00:06:58,120 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 6: usually right. 156 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 8: It's a good quest at the skill. Maybe we can 157 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 8: get him on the trivia team or something like that. 158 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 8: I mean, how else does this manifest itself so we 159 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,559 Speaker 8: can take advantage of But I think, you know, joking aside, 160 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 8: Christian Gonzalez and that's been I've been lucky enough to 161 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 8: do a couple of radio hits this morning television hit 162 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 8: Seattle Morning Television, thank you.

But 176 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 8: that's where I think it's Christian Gonzalees time to shine. 177 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 8: And I said it during the regular season. When you 178 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 8: get in the playoffs, I don't know how the matchup's going. 179 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 7: To go, but I feel good having we get a. 180 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 1: Chance to see some of it. Absolutely. 181 00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 9: You know, you want to see the best on the best, 182 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 9: and and that's in this game. The Patriots best corner 183 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 9: is Gonzales And obviously, you know you can make an 184 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 9: argument that Jasn has been the best receiver in football period. 185 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 8: Him a pooka, I mean him, Yeah, it's one or 186 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 8: the other. Yeah, Now that's what I in the Seattle Radio. 187 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 8: That's that's what I said to them that I mean, 188 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 8: he's Christian. Goandal has been really good. But it's just 189 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 8: exciting as a football fan to get to watch two 190 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 8: guys that are that good, that athletic.

We had him on 227 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 7: and we were ask him about it. That was fun. 228 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 6: Let's see johna South Carolina was watching a video where 229 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,959 Speaker 6: Tom was talking up May how he plays moves in 230 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 6: his arm. That doesn't go along with the emailer who 231 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,439 Speaker 6: said he only saw ten passes, not saying which one 232 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 6: is right just makes me question it. So what was he? 233 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 7: There was an email that that said Tom only watched 234 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 7: ten of his passes. Yeah, that's what I don't know. 235 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 9: I said, you've seen about fifteen players from Drake May 236 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 9: all year. Yeah, And I said, I find out really 237 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 9: hard to believe because, yeah, he's in you know, the 238 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 9: the number one analyst on Fox, and he's not watching 239 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 9: all of the teams, of course he is. 240 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 11: Yeah. 241 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 4: Well, Tom is getting a lot of grief these days. 242 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 7: Eh. 243 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 6: You know, he's not for Patriots fans. He's not giving 244 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,079 Speaker 6: us enough love, all right. 245 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 8: Like, what more do you need from the guy? I mean, 246 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,319 Speaker 8: he gave you six super Bowls, he gave you twenty 247 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:43,959 Speaker 8: of the best years of your life. Wait, like, do 248 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 8: you need him to continue to be a cheerleader for 249 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,199 Speaker 8: the team. I looked at that TV twelve night that 250 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 8: we did when he went into the Hall of Fame, 251 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 8: and I said, you know what, this is the button 252 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 8: on this They gave him a statue. It was an 253 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 8: awesome time. We've closed the book, just like he probably hasn't. 254 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 8: I just don't know why we continue to be so 255 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 8: needy from Tom Brady. He's gone on to do different things. 256 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 8: He gave us everything you could ever ask for. It 257 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 8: doesn't matter to me, you know, if he's gonna still 258 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 8: be our biggest. 259 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 7: Fan, I don't know. I kind of understand it. 260 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 6: I understand why fans are a little bit upset about 261 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 6: that because you know, after so many years, we had 262 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 6: this dynasty and you know, like it's something that we 263 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,599 Speaker 6: treasure and we want it forever and we want it 264 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:32,440 Speaker 6: to be complete. And without Tom Brady, like you know, it's. 265 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 8: Like we kind of don't have to like continuing to 266 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 8: be around and and like things, I mean, or. 267 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 7: At least reminding everybody that, yeah, I was a Patriot. 268 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 8: But but I but I also see there are certain 269 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 8: you know, Patriots alumni that like they're always there and 270 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 8: it's not really all that exciting, like you know anymore 271 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 8: like that the novelties worn't off. I think now when 272 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 8: you get to see Tom Brady participating in something for 273 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 8: the Patriots or in some capacity that then then it's exciting. 274 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 8: But I don't know, man, I'm so focused on this 275 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 8: current team and where this team is gonna go and 276 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,439 Speaker 8: not living in the past and wondering Tom Brady is 277 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 8: a part owner of the Raiders. 278 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: Now he's Mike doesn't have any time for that. 279 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 7: I was here and I don't like him now right. 280 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 9: Correct, Mike doesn't have any time for the past, but 281 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 9: I do. I'm kind of like in the middle of 282 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,199 Speaker 9: you two guys. I understand what Fred's talking about. And 283 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 9: I and I would, you know, as as a you know, 284 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 9: were separating myself from what we do for a living 285 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 9: as a Patriots fan. It is a little disappointing that 286 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 9: he doesn't seem to be as enthusiastic about I guess, 287 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 9: you know. I don't think he's necessarily openly like bitter, 288 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 9: you know. And there's been some guys that have left 289 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 9: and have really trashed the place, and I don't really 290 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:48,719 Speaker 9: see Brady doing that. I think he still has a 291 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 9: lot of respect for you know, Robert Kraft and the 292 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 9: Craft family and whatnot in the organization itself. And we 293 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:57,079 Speaker 9: remember what he said right what he said at the 294 00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 9: UH at the event at the Hall, the Hall of 295 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,679 Speaker 9: Fame ceremony about being a Patriot for life. But we 296 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 9: do have to remember that even though he was a 297 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 9: Patriot for so long he didn't have success with another team, 298 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,679 Speaker 9: he did grow up admiring a separate team altogether. From that, 299 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:16,719 Speaker 9: so the fact that it's not just all about the 300 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 9: Patriots for him, maybe I can understand both. 301 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: Sides a little bit, a little bit. 302 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 7: I don't know what what what he did here was 303 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 7: pretty remarkable, so I know, it's. 304 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 1: Pretty remarkable that Evan Lazar made it here so fast. 305 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, Evan's herepressive, he's just getting set up. 306 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 7: I do have some news for people, guess. 307 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,319 Speaker 6: I guess there was a social post that went out 308 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 6: yesterday about this, but I didn't see it, so I'm 309 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 6: assuming that maybe some fans didn't see it. But if 310 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 6: you're in the San Francisco area for the Super Bowl 311 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 6: and you're looking for the Patriots place to be, there's 312 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 6: gonna be a couple of rallies Friday night. 313 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 9: It's it's. 314 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 6: Friday night from four to seven at a place called 315 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:06,959 Speaker 6: Underdogs Cantina that's in San Francisco.

You know, I'm one 341 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 12: of those people that can work. 342 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 4: In the car, so that was kind of nice. 343 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 7: Got some I saw that come through. 344 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 12: Everything's done breaking down the old twenty two of course, 345 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 12: you know cover six. 346 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 8: You know, I thought you were going to fight dan Orlowsky. 347 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 8: He was right here, we're ball now we're friends. So 348 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 8: you were at a little bit of the access this morning. 349 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 4: I was at most of it. 350 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, we talked. 351 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 6: About Splene you mention thing that he's ready to go. Yeah, 352 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 6: what else did you learn today? 353 00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 12: Honestly, you know, the these ones have been pretty subdue, 354 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 12: But I think the the general gist of Mike Rable 355 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 12: this morning was just let's go time now, you know, 356 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 12: And we got kind of the you're at the super 357 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 12: Bowl yeay, you know, like that's that's sort of done, 358 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 12: and now these next forty eight hours. He used his 359 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 12: favorite phrase, critical for the next for the next forty 360 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 12: eight hours, that Chris is down to brass tacks, start 361 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 12: the game plan and and get everything installed and get 362 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 12: ready for Seattle. And he mentioned the family is coming 363 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 12: in and all that stuff. The weekend can kind of 364 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 12: get a little hectic again. So U I think that 365 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 12: right now they're trying to get it back to football 366 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 12: as much as they possibly can. 367 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 6: So before you got here, I was talking about another 368 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 6: one of my Freddie Field's premonitions, Yes, and I was 369 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 6: saying that if you're a better and you can get 370 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 6: a proposition of Milton Williams as MVP. 371 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 4: As V take it, take the bet, it's gonna need 372 00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 4: a stripsack in there. 373 00:16:58,480 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 7: What do you think about that? 374 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 12: I mean, I definitely think that that's a matchup that 375 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 12: they're going to try to exploit their interior three. You know, 376 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,640 Speaker 12: Zabel is a good rookie, but he's a rookie kind 377 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:10,919 Speaker 12: of like the Patriots rookies has had some ups and downs. 378 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 4: Uh, they're right. 379 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 12: Guard is another guy that I think a lot of 380 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 12: people troubles are talking about. 381 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 4: Bradford is someone that they can target. So I think 382 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:21,640 Speaker 4: that's the game. 383 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,360 Speaker 12: You know, on both sides, the ball really is how 384 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 12: well can the Patriots offensive line hold up against Seattle's 385 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 12: pass rush and vice versa. In whichever team survives that 386 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 12: matchup in the trenches is probably gonna win. 387 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 9: So I just thought, again, using off the top of 388 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 9: my dome, I think the last time the Super Bowl 389 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 9: was here, super Bowl fifty, right in Santa Clara, Denver 390 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 9: over Carolina. I think von Miller may have been the 391 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 9: MVP of the Oh there you go, so you got 392 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 9: some karma the last time it was in Santa Clara. 393 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 7: For I think you can't the MVP of that. He didn't. 394 00:17:57,880 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 4: Try to. 395 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 7: He's over there by the way. Yeah, well he's got 396 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 7: a great hat on back at you. 397 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 12: We were actually talking talking to Josh McDaniel's a little 398 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:09,479 Speaker 12: bit this morning, and he mentioned Cam Newton for very 399 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 12: different reasons. But we were talking about installing plays to 400 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,879 Speaker 12: use Drake's mobility in the offense, and I was just 401 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 12: asking him about how different that is from you know, 402 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 12: his experience really for the most of his career has 403 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 12: been with stationary quarterbacks like Brady, and he did mention 404 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 12: Cam as probably the biggest inspiration for some of the 405 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 12: things that they've done. But he mentioned that, you know, 406 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 12: Cam was a different beast. You know, he's a two 407 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 12: hundred and fifty pound battering ram. But a lot of 408 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 12: the things that they've installed with Drake may he said 409 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 12: his first real taste. 410 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 4: Of that was with Cam Newton in twenty twenty. 411 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, just saw Tony Tony Dungee walk by, and he 412 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 6: made some ripples because he refuses to say who we 413 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 6: voted for for the Hall of Fame. 414 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 4: Well you know what that means? 415 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, yeah, so but I guess Belichick lost by 416 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 6: one vote, that's the reporting. Yeah, so he could have 417 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:09,239 Speaker 6: he could have changed that. Nope, yeah, could have all right, 418 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 6: not tonight. Yeah, but we're we're seeing people walk by. 419 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:14,479 Speaker 6: It's it's an exciting place. Right now. 420 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 8: It's a lot more people watching today as it's just 421 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 8: you know, everybody just crosses your I. 422 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 7: Mean we saw C. D. 423 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 8: Lamb walk by and if you caught him, like, it's 424 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 8: just a parade of NFL players. 425 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:28,200 Speaker 6: Uh, David Monterey, I've been telling my friends that I'm 426 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 6: a Patriots fan and my quarterback is Drake may. 427 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 7: I think that makes it. 428 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,159 Speaker 6: Clear that we're onto the next dynasty and focused on 429 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 6: who's the team now. So forget about Tom Brady, he says, 430 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 6: you don't. 431 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 4: Have to forget about Mike. No, you don't forget. 432 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 7: You don't have to be sad it was over. Just 433 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:43,879 Speaker 7: be happy that it happened. 434 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 8: Yeah, all right, sound like the Navy celia. 435 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:50,719 Speaker 7: On the right. 436 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 9: You're on the right side. You're on the right side 437 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 9: of the equals sign. But don't forget about the people 438 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 9: that got you to that on the left side. 439 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 7: That's right. Do you have your map? 440 00:19:57,680 --> 00:19:59,199 Speaker 8: Yeah no, there were a couple of people that were 441 00:19:59,240 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 8: subtracting on that. 442 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 7: That's all right, Okay, let's see Sam and Halifax UK. 443 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 6: With all the talk about Seattle being a scheme, Defense 444 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 6: and Evan mentioning last week the possibility that the complex 445 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 6: scheme could land defenders out of position. Does this present 446 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 6: an opportunity for Henderson to find to crease it hit 447 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,440 Speaker 6: a big play. It's likely he might struggle in terms 448 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 6: of traditional running, but I'm feeling a forty plus yard 449 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 6: play from him this game day. 450 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 9: Yeah, we talked about that a little bit yesterday. I 451 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 9: think your better chances of production in the running game, 452 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 9: I think is something like that as opposed to lining 453 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 9: up traditionally and getting them for five yards of carry. 454 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 9: They were really stout run defense. They only allow about 455 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 9: ninety yards. But all defense is susceptible to one big play. 456 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 9: I mean, you never know if you crease somebody, you 457 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 9: block one up perfectly and Henderson, you know, hits it, 458 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 9: and you know that's go back to whatever that stretch 459 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 9: was Tampa, you know, the stretched to like Buffalo where 460 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 9: it was all of a sudden he was big play 461 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,120 Speaker 9: after big play. Maybe one of those turns to Super Bowl. 462 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 3: Yeah. 463 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 10: Yeah. 464 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 12: He averaged, I believe, near the top of the league 465 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 12: in terms of average yards per carry against two high 466 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 12: safety shelves, which is what Seattle bases their defense out 467 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 12: of more than any other defense in the league. They 468 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 12: played two ice safeties at like seventy five clip and Henderson, 469 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 12: you know, lighter boxes, more space to kind of see increases. 470 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 4: And maneuver in there. The hope is is that maybe 471 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 4: he could spring one. 472 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 12: But I think the the other side of it, though, 473 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 12: is do you trust him to hold up in pass 474 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 12: protection because McDonald is gonna, you know, scheme it up 475 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 12: in the pass rush and they're gonna probably blitz a 476 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 12: good amount. And if he's gonna be on the field 477 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 12: for any sort of high volume snaps or you're gonna 478 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 12: trust him to pick up blitzes like Ramandre Can And 479 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 12: I would just say that there's a handful of big 480 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:56,160 Speaker 12: plays that the pitches have made over the last four 481 00:21:56,240 --> 00:22:00,200 Speaker 12: to six weeks that have been almost directly responsible are 482 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 12: Stevenson Yeah. 483 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,880 Speaker 9: Yeah, you know, and not necessarily because he was making 484 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 9: the play with the ball in his hands, but making 485 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,439 Speaker 9: it possible for Drake May to hit somebody with his blocking. 486 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 8: Yeah, he's kind of my X factor for this game. 487 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,639 Speaker 8: I don't think anybody's really talking about him, and I 488 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 8: think it's a good example of somebody's playing really great 489 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 8: football here down the stretch, maybe the best football of 490 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 8: his career all around game, and that to me. You know, 491 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 8: I know it's a really tough defense, but it's one 492 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 8: of those things you keep hammering away, hammering away, and 493 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 8: you hope at some point Ormondre or Henderson maybe breaks one. 494 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, let's try to get some phone calls in here. 495 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 6: We'll start with Cole and Nebraska. What's up, Cole? 496 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:38,120 Speaker 7: How are you doing good? 497 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 13: Hey? 498 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 14: Guys, how you got a question for you? I grew 499 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 14: up understanding that Bill Belichick one of his greatest pass 500 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 14: just eliminating the. 501 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 10: Best player on the team. 502 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 14: Let's say, hypothetically we eliminate this. 503 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 15: Where do the guys stand up on our defense first 504 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 15: arrest of their offense? 505 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 7: So what if we eliminate JSN, what's what's. 506 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 14: The rest of the defense matchup against the rest of 507 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:10,119 Speaker 14: set off? 508 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 8: I mean the tight end, I think, I mean he 509 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:14,400 Speaker 8: he had a bunch of catches and he's a big boy. 510 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 8: I think a lot of their early down stuff they 511 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:18,479 Speaker 8: they like to go to him. I think they love 512 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,160 Speaker 8: to pound Kenneth Walker. So I'd start with those two guys, 513 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 8: of course. Rashid Shaheed downfield speed. I mean, you just 514 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 8: you can't get beat. You can't give up a giant 515 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:28,879 Speaker 8: score to that guy. They've obviously already played him this 516 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 8: year when he was on the Saints. Still, so those 517 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 8: are those are the three main I mean, I think 518 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 8: it just all starts with stopping down. 519 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 6: How about Seattle other than JSN, And we've talked about 520 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 6: this before and thanks for the call. Call is that 521 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 6: they're a balanced team, Like like there's nobody you know, 522 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 6: when you look at the numbers that is you know, 523 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 6: close to you know, one hundred catches, but it's spread 524 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,880 Speaker 6: out outside of Jay, outside of JSN, it's spread out. 525 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 6: Now when they lost Sara, I know, Evan, you kind 526 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 6: of poop pooed it, but I think that was a 527 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 6: big loss for them. 528 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 12: I think it's a big loss for them. And Blitz 529 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 12: pick up. He's he's definitely the better player in terms 530 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 12: of blocking. Kenneth Walker is a far more dynamic runner 531 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,400 Speaker 12: and has had a great playoffs. So I didn't really 532 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 12: expect Charbonay to play a ton outside of you know, 533 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 12: third down situational stuff where he's got to pick up 534 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 12: blocks or you know, in terms of like short yardage, 535 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:26,439 Speaker 12: which is where he played a lot. 536 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,360 Speaker 6: But I also see like when they needed stuff, he's 537 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 6: kind of a go to guy on the ground and 538 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 6: I see him picking up critical you. 539 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,679 Speaker 12: Know, in short yardage, definitely. I mean, he's a battering ram, 540 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 12: He's a big dude. They won't have that ability. I 541 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 12: think the biggest thing with Seattle when you see teams 542 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 12: that have had success against their offense, it's really those 543 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 12: six man defensive line fronts that the Patriots actually kind 544 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 12: of started in Super Bowl fifty three. And then you 545 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 12: play with the two safeties over the top to put 546 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 12: a cloud, put a you know, two guys over the 547 00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 12: top of their receivers. So can you stop the run 548 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 12: with six or seven guys and be able to do that, 549 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 12: I think is going to be one of the keys. 550 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,639 Speaker 4: To the game. They run a lot of that stretch 551 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 4: play outside zone. 552 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 12: He's a Shanahan offense, Shanahan Tree type of offense, and 553 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 12: that's what they're gonna do. So if you can go 554 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 12: out there and stop the run like the Patriots have 555 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 12: been this postseason so far really well, then I think 556 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 12: that you like your chances of getting them into some 557 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 12: of these bad situations for their The. 558 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 9: Last thing that Evan just said is the reason to 559 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,199 Speaker 9: answer the question if they somehow hypothetically took JSN out 560 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 9: of the game. I don't think the Seahawks offense would 561 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 9: present much of a challenge because now it's on Kenneth Walker. 562 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,919 Speaker 9: The Patriots run defense has been ridiculously stout when healthy. 563 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,640 Speaker 9: I just don't see Seattle finding answers if you take 564 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 9: away something that's that big a piece of the puzzle. 565 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 12: Yeah, one of the biggest mismatches in this game is 566 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,159 Speaker 12: Seattle and third and long versus the Patriots defense and 567 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 12: third and long. The Patriots defense number one in the 568 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 12: league in third down and long conversion rate. The Seattle's 569 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 12: thirty first in the league converting third and longs offensively. 570 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 12: So when you get him to third and long, when 571 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 12: you get pressure on Donald, he's not the same quarterback. 572 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:11,160 Speaker 12: You know, he's not nearly as good in those types 573 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 12: of situations when it's obvious pass and he has to 574 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:14,400 Speaker 12: drop back. 575 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 4: So can you do that? 576 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 12: That also allows you on third down to maybe double 577 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 12: JSN or have some sort of scheme element because you 578 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 12: know what pass is coming. So all those things are 579 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 12: prevalent on first down. I think first down is the 580 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 12: biggest down in this entire. 581 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:32,640 Speaker 7: So, but you know, having said that, they're the number 582 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:33,639 Speaker 7: one seed in the NFC. 583 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 6: So I'm sure a lot of teams know what you're 584 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 6: just saying and tried to do what you're saying, and 585 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 6: they just couldn't do it. 586 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 8: Yeah, not consistently. 587 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:42,119 Speaker 7: Why couldn't not consistently? 588 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 8: And I mean I went through and watched, you know, 589 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 8: all of his interceptions this year, and I don't noticed 590 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 8: more than a few times he's looking at JSN first, 591 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:51,119 Speaker 8: and if it's not there, that's when you start to 592 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 8: get Donald unraveled a little bit. So I think that's, 593 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 8: you know, a big part of it, making sure you 594 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 8: take him away early, but he gets open late too. 595 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:00,679 Speaker 8: I mean there's times where Donald scial a little bit 596 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,880 Speaker 8: and JSN is just too athletic. No one can stick 597 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 8: with him, lay in the down and Darnell finds him. 598 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 8: So uh, it's just it's it's hard to do it 599 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 8: for sixty minutes. 600 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 7: Every play. 601 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:11,399 Speaker 8: They're gonna JASN is going to make some plays in 602 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 8: this game. 603 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 7: So it's so funny. 604 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 6: I just saw Jerry Madalon, our guy, walking with Mike 605 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 6: Tannon bound and then he was talking with Ben Watson, 606 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 6: and Watson was. 607 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 1: Right in front of us, so I thought he was 608 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 1: gonna give us a look. But he didn't know. 609 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 4: He was kind of head down. 610 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,879 Speaker 7: You just forget all about us, Yeah, just forget about us. 611 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:29,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, I've been on that show before. 612 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,880 Speaker 9: Okay, ben you know how many how many guys walking 613 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 9: around here have been on this show before? 614 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 6: Yeah? He has true Benjamin, We'll stop talking about that 615 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:38,879 Speaker 6: play you made it against Denver? 616 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 8: You know, all right about Hey, how about the touchdown 617 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:44,640 Speaker 8: he had in the O nine opener against the Bills 618 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:46,239 Speaker 8: with the up the scene of Brady with a game 619 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 8: winner after it. 620 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 4: It was a touch back to. 621 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 7: Let's go to herm in DCG. What's up herb. 622 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:02,679 Speaker 4: Okay, he. 623 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 1: Turn, you can speak, we. 624 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 14: Can hear you, yes, Okay, sorry, because I'm having all 625 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 14: the technific issues real quick. So I can't see a 626 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 14: scenario where essentially my bettest song Coach Babel compared to uh, 627 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 14: whether Mike, Mike. 628 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 9: McDaniels, Matt McDonald, Mike McDonald McDonald. 629 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 14: Yeah, I can't even thinking of the god's name, but 630 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 14: lost or short. I'm pretty much guaranteeing as a visual 631 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 14: win because again, if all the equals, I think one 632 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 14: of the biggest a glass to me is Coach Rabel. 633 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,479 Speaker 14: I just think that he will be able to come 634 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 14: up with the defensive game plan to essentially slow down 635 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 14: to see a Seahawks offense and most typically just the 636 00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 14: versus the Seahawks offense being able to team up against 637 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 14: our defensidemics. 638 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,719 Speaker 9: That so, well, what about Seattle's defense against the Patriots offense? 639 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 1: Like McDonald's defensive coach. 640 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 14: I understand that, but again, I just trust Drake May, okay, 641 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 14: and Dodh McDaniels against that defense, right, And I know, 642 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 14: I remember you were talking about how obviously Drake May 643 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 14: didn't have the greatest playoff performance so far on my 644 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 14: person believe well, and it's my person believe that in 645 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 14: the sounds an excuse, but I do think what had 646 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 14: a lot of do right because ten donald, yes, he 647 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 14: lit up the Rams, but play in California, you know 648 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 14: what I mean? In California? 649 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 4: That yeah, okay, all right, So we're going with. 650 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 9: We're gonna go with the Patriots are gonna win because 651 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 9: they I don't think, which I don't necessarily disagree with. 652 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 9: I did make my pick yesterday on Patriots Unfiltered TV 653 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 9: at Niceties, and I went with the Patriots. In full disclosure, 654 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 9: we don't have to wait till Friday I just I 655 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 9: would like to have some reasoning other than yeah, well, 656 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 9: I just you know Rabel, Well, if we're. 657 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 12: Going to coaching angle, I don't think that there's much 658 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 12: of an advantage either way schematically. I think both these 659 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 12: staffs are really really good x's and o's wise Rabels 660 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 12: playing experience, mcdaniels's coaching experience versus what Seattle is bringing 661 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 12: to the table with a head coach and a coordinator 662 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 12: that have never been here before. I do think if 663 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 12: you want to take that route, then that's probably the argument. 664 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 12: McDonald's one of the best defensive schemers in the league, 665 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 12: and Quinn Kubiak just got a head coaching job because 666 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 12: of how good he's been on offense. So I don't 667 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 12: think that there's some big gap between the coaching staffs 668 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 12: from a x's and o's standpoint, but maybe an experience 669 00:30:58,160 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 12: standpoint that could help the Patriots. 670 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 9: And I would just say, like, would you say that 671 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 9: Mike Rabel is a better coach than Sean McDermott, Yes, yeah, 672 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 9: I mean I would. I mean I would probably go 673 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 9: into a game saying yeah, I think the Patriots have 674 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 9: an edge here, And that was probably one of the 675 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 9: most glaring mismatches in strategy. The second half of that 676 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 9: game in Foxborough, McDermott did some things that the Patriots 677 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 9: were not ready for and it completely changed the game. So, 678 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 9: like you can think you have an edge in something, 679 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 9: and as La Garrett Blunt told us, whatever you think 680 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 9: is going to happen is probably not going to come 681 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 9: out that way. Right, So there's a lot of different 682 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 9: twists and turns to these games. I do think that 683 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 9: Rabel's I love Evan's point about Rabel and McDaniel's that 684 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 9: experience I think has value in a big game and. 685 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 1: McDonald doesn't have that. Ye yeah, doesn't have the same stuff. 686 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 6: I think if you spread it out, I think Seattle 687 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 6: has better talent across the board, you know, spread out. 688 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 7: But it's not so much that they have this huge advantage. 689 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 6: When we look at these Super Bowls, We've been to 690 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 6: a few of them, right, Paul, Well, each one of these, 691 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 6: like there's like games within the game, Like you know, 692 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 6: there's certain parts of the sixty minutes that have their 693 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 6: own identity. You know, I think of the Carolina game 694 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:21,520 Speaker 6: where every quarter seemed to be like a different game, 695 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 6: And you know, a lot of these it's just you 696 00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 6: have to kind of break it up, and it's really 697 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 6: hard to predict what's gonna happen because it it doesn't 698 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 6: hold true throughout the whole game. 699 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 7: Like there's shifts and momentum. 700 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 6: Defenses get tired at the end a lot of times 701 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 6: in the Super Bowl, not just the Patriots, but you know, 702 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 6: there's a lot of energy expended up front and toward 703 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 6: the end, defenses you know, tend to you know, get 704 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 6: tired and offenses start. 705 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 7: To surge at the end. 706 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 4: I remember the first Super Bowl that the Patriots won. 707 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 6: If that game had gone into overtime, there's a good chance, 708 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 6: you know, and back then the overtime rules were different, 709 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 6: it's a good chance the Patriots would have lost that 710 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 6: game because the Rams were surging and our defense had 711 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 6: expended so much energy stopping Marshall Fock and Kurt Waterer 712 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 6: early that they didn't have much left. 713 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:15,360 Speaker 7: Yeah. Well, let me ask you a question. 714 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 8: How many you know, what are the best couple of 715 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 8: Patriots defenses all time? 716 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 4: Three? 717 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:18,959 Speaker 7: H four right? 718 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 4: Three? 719 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 8: Did anyone see the Carolina Panthers putting up what thirty 720 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:24,239 Speaker 8: something points on them? 721 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 7: You know? It is just such a bizarre. 722 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 8: No, but you know what I mean, Like, that's one 723 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 8: of the best pages defenses. 724 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a great point that Fred makes. 725 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 9: And some of these games they had, like there was 726 00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 9: no scoring in the first and third quarters of that game, 727 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 9: was all in the second and fourth and you know 728 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 9: Rodney breaks his arm and you know, a guy like 729 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 9: Sean Mayer. Yeah, so Brendan Schooler is playing safety with 730 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 9: the game on the line. That was Sean Mayer. He 731 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 9: was a special teamer, you know, that's all. You know, 732 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 9: that's all his role was all year and with the 733 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 9: Super Bowl. 734 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:55,360 Speaker 1: You never know. 735 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 9: I was watching forty nine the other night. This is 736 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 9: the first Seattle per usual rewatching. No, it just it 737 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 9: just happened to be on NFL. So and I'm watching. 738 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 9: It was like in the middle of the second quarter 739 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 9: and the Patriots had just scored to go up seven nothing, 740 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:13,280 Speaker 9: and you know, Seattle puts a drive together and Russell 741 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 9: Wilson completed his first pass of the game. They were 742 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 9: about six minutes left in the half, and it was 743 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 9: like a record for the longest to complete his first pass. 744 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 9: Then all of a sudden and you look up in 745 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:24,959 Speaker 9: the middle of the fourth quarter and you're down twenty 746 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 9: four to fourteen or whatever it was. You know, Seattle 747 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 9: had certainly gotten in gear by then, So there was 748 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 9: like totally different games. 749 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,360 Speaker 1: Even within the game, like Fred said, and I'll. 750 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,720 Speaker 7: Look at the game where the Patriots lost to the Eagles. 751 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:39,800 Speaker 6: All of you know, it seemed like, you know, Patriots 752 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:43,360 Speaker 6: are kind of cruising, Brandon Cooks goes down, Yeah, and 753 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 6: like you look, well, you don't really need Brandon Cooks. 754 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 7: No, you did need him in that game. Well, you 755 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:50,440 Speaker 7: probably needed Malcolm Butler, yeah, Maltham Butler. 756 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 6: But like, like you know, he tries to do this 757 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:54,959 Speaker 6: crazy move where he tries to go over the guy's 758 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:56,719 Speaker 6: helmet and he's out for the game. 759 00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 7: Press that changed things. 760 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:03,400 Speaker 6: So these Super Bowls are are different animals than I 761 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:04,840 Speaker 6: think regular season games. 762 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 4: They really are, especially from half to half. 763 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 12: I feel like too, like because of the halftime is 764 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:12,760 Speaker 12: so long that whatever you did in the you almost 765 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 12: have to have two game plans going into it, because 766 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 12: whatever you did in the first half, there's gonna be 767 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,680 Speaker 12: that extra time for these coaches to figure out what 768 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,239 Speaker 12: you were doing, and then there's gonna be adjustments to 769 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 12: the first half. And so you's often hear and sometimes 770 00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 12: that they almost have two different game plans going into 771 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 12: the game because they know that that sort of thirty 772 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:33,640 Speaker 12: plus minute halftime is a lot longer than it normally is. 773 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 6: Yep, you know, in game adjustments, that type of thing, 774 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 6: they become critical. 775 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:39,319 Speaker 2: Yeah. 776 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 8: I saw a story on the interwebs that Brady and 777 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:44,440 Speaker 8: Josh like rewrote their red zone. 778 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 7: I had heard that list. Yeah, super Bowl forty nine, 779 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 7: like two days before. 780 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, it was two plays. 781 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:54,319 Speaker 12: But the one where Edelman's pointing at the sideline, Yeah, 782 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 12: when he caught the little, you know, jerk route return route, 783 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:00,360 Speaker 12: that one, I think we had no and that that 784 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 12: was the play that they put in in the ballroom 785 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 12: the night before the game on Saturday night. They had 786 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 12: installed that play and they had ran it, and yeah, 787 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 12: that was really fascinating. I didn't know the second one, 788 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:15,279 Speaker 12: the one to La fell slant route. I guess that 789 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,960 Speaker 12: was the other play that they installed and they threw 790 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 12: a touchdown on. 791 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 6: All right, let's go to on the eight five five 792 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 6: pats five hundred the hotline.

Life is different outside of 864 00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:30,879 Speaker 6: New England. Outside of New England, you keep your mouth 865 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 6: shut unless you're around friends. When it comes to the Pats, 866 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 6: unless you feel like getting into an argument with someone 867 00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:38,839 Speaker 6: who only watches college football but still wants to crap 868 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:42,400 Speaker 6: on the Patriots. Sports radio isn't really an issue unless 869 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,560 Speaker 6: you get an old head blaming the Patriots for ruining 870 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:46,240 Speaker 6: Cam Newton. 871 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:50,359 Speaker 8: We should ask him about it. He's right over there. 872 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:53,239 Speaker 8: Oh god, do you think we could get him on? 873 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,080 Speaker 8: That would be funny, just to try to convince him. 874 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,080 Speaker 4: Why do you know how the current quarterback you feel 875 00:39:58,080 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 4: about that? 876 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:01,279 Speaker 7: Dudes will hold his feet to the fire. 877 00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:03,239 Speaker 8: Did you ever find out what mac Jones's real meddle 878 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:03,640 Speaker 8: name was? 879 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 7: Well, okay, let's go to Sean and Vancouver. What's up Sean? 880 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 15: Hey, you know, I'm disappointed, as I'm sure everyone is hearing, 881 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 15: the Craft, the best owner and history of sports is 882 00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:24,320 Speaker 15: not in the Hall of Fame. But I'm not surprised 883 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:29,920 Speaker 15: because Avenue, I'm sure you agree the Pro Football Hall 884 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:34,360 Speaker 15: of Fame has a bias against the Patriots, and I 885 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,319 Speaker 15: wouldn't be surprised if Terry doesn't get in, and then 886 00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:40,920 Speaker 15: next year if they make bronk weights. So this is 887 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:44,400 Speaker 15: my question. Let's say in twenty twenty eight, there's a 888 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 15: complete slips. It's a Patriots party, it's Brady, it's Bronk, 889 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 15: it's Belichick, it's Craft, it's been a Terry, it's even 890 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:54,920 Speaker 15: Rodney Harrison. Would you all go for that induction ceremony? 891 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 17: I would. 892 00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:59,040 Speaker 9: The better question is what would Patriots Nation have to 893 00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:02,680 Speaker 9: bitch about out being hated by the leader? What would 894 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,479 Speaker 9: they what would they fabricate that the mass induction Because 895 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,879 Speaker 9: let me just say this for the record, if if 896 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 9: Vinitary and Gronkowski and Brady don't get in, then I'll say, 897 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:19,000 Speaker 9: you know what, I was stubbornly wrong. This is clearly 898 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 9: a bias against the Patriots if those kinds of guys 899 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:23,520 Speaker 9: don't get in the Hall of Fame. But if Tom 900 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 9: and Rob Gronkowski, Adam Minitarry is going to get in 901 00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:30,279 Speaker 9: the Hall of Fame, Tom Brady is going to get 902 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:32,800 Speaker 9: I don't really care like what year, like, that's not 903 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:33,319 Speaker 9: really all that. 904 00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:33,880 Speaker 1: Important to me. 905 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:37,239 Speaker 9: But if they don't get in the Hall of Fame, 906 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 9: then I'll say, you guys were right. This is clearly 907 00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 9: a bias. There's something special about. 908 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 18: Tom Braid is going to be a first ballot hall 909 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 18: when you're deserving, and he will be who on that list? 910 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 6: He will him nobody. I say the same thing for 911 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,080 Speaker 6: Gronk like who on the list. 912 00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 9: I would agree, and I think they'll both and I 913 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:00,080 Speaker 9: think they'll both be first ballot Hall of Famers. But 914 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:01,560 Speaker 9: I'm just saying, if they don't get in the Hall 915 00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:02,959 Speaker 9: of Fame, then I'll say, you guys are right. 916 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:03,600 Speaker 7: I would hope. 917 00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:07,279 Speaker 6: So it just might be Elsie Greenwood's all right, good 918 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:09,799 Speaker 6: time for break, So let's take one. 919 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:12,879 Speaker 7: When we come back.

It's okay now. 981 00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:25,880 Speaker 8: And I'm a kind of a closet Seahawks fancy, like 982 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:27,400 Speaker 8: I was Steve Large in Jersey when I was a kid, 983 00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:28,880 Speaker 8: and everyone's making fun of me all week that I 984 00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,720 Speaker 8: have like split alliances, but I'm really. 985 00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:32,200 Speaker 7: A Patriots guy. 986 00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:34,600 Speaker 8: But what's your biggest takeaway from this game right now? 987 00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:39,200 Speaker 8: Is as we get ready to get into this thing, uh, Okay, So. 988 00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:42,000 Speaker 27: The thesis I've kind of been presenting to people this week, 989 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 27: because obviously I did my show digging into the matchups 990 00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:48,480 Speaker 27: and all the various exos and whatnot, is I have 991 00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 27: my feeling is that I think the Patriots offense is 992 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 27: better than what we've seen, and the defense is a 993 00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:55,600 Speaker 27: little bit worse than what we've seen, and I think 994 00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:58,760 Speaker 27: people are overrating the defense a little bit underrating the offense. 995 00:46:58,840 --> 00:46:59,759 Speaker 26: How do you guys feel about that? 996 00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:01,239 Speaker 4: I think that's fair. 997 00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:03,160 Speaker 1: I can definitely see that. 998 00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:05,440 Speaker 12: Yeah, I think the one thing that Patriots fans are 999 00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:07,560 Speaker 12: holding out hope for is that they've played some bad 1000 00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:10,759 Speaker 12: weather games here in the playoffs, especially that fourth quarter 1001 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:14,560 Speaker 12: in Denver was pretty tough for both teams. So some 1002 00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:17,480 Speaker 12: better weather in this climate, maybe Drake may plays a 1003 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:19,400 Speaker 12: little bit more like he did in the regular season 1004 00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 12: compared to the playoffs, but I do I'm fascinated to 1005 00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:26,200 Speaker 12: see how he looks against another great defense. 1006 00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:26,360 Speaker 10: You know. 1007 00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:29,200 Speaker 12: That's another big part of this is I wanted to 1008 00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:31,320 Speaker 12: ask you about your MVP vote here in the second, 1009 00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:34,719 Speaker 12: but the biggest thing that we heard all year was 1010 00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:38,120 Speaker 12: him against you know, weaker defenses all season long, and 1011 00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:40,360 Speaker 12: then they get into the playoffs and it's the Texans, 1012 00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:41,640 Speaker 12: is the Broncos. 1013 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:43,800 Speaker 4: Now it's Seattle. Yeah, we're kind of finding out a 1014 00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:44,279 Speaker 4: little bit. 1015 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:46,560 Speaker 12: About that too. So I agree with your thesis. I 1016 00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:49,400 Speaker 12: just wonder where that falls in the middle. 1017 00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:52,239 Speaker 27: I know, right, Yeah, it's the expectation is not that 1018 00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:55,000 Speaker 27: he's gonna light Seattle up. I just think they're too difficult, 1019 00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:59,320 Speaker 27: but more so that you know, I think, like, like 1020 00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:01,520 Speaker 27: you said, he's plays really difficult defenses. I think the 1021 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,239 Speaker 27: weather was a big deal, and I think, you know, 1022 00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:06,879 Speaker 27: with a couple of weeks to prepare, and I think 1023 00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:09,239 Speaker 27: there's things that he can do, strengths that he can 1024 00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:12,520 Speaker 27: play into that'll make it look better than it has 1025 00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:12,920 Speaker 27: thus far. 1026 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:15,200 Speaker 9: Can I ask you, you know, one of the questions 1027 00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:18,400 Speaker 9: we're getting a lot from people. You look at Seattle's offense, 1028 00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:20,920 Speaker 9: and it's obviously JSN centric. 1029 00:48:21,239 --> 00:48:22,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, one hundred and nineteen catches. 1030 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:25,279 Speaker 9: The next guy is down I don't know, seventy five 1031 00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:27,480 Speaker 9: or so, and everybody's like, well, if you just take 1032 00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:29,799 Speaker 9: JSN out of the game, you know, like you can 1033 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:33,680 Speaker 9: just I know, obviously all the teams that Seattle has 1034 00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:35,719 Speaker 9: played have gone in to say, you know this is 1035 00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 9: what we're going to do. You follow Seattle as closely 1036 00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 9: as anyone, right, So why are they so successful being 1037 00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:42,400 Speaker 9: able to still. 1038 00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,440 Speaker 26: Have him be the Yeah there there's a litany of 1039 00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:46,600 Speaker 26: reasons for that, right. 1040 00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:49,400 Speaker 27: It'd be so nice if they could just say, hey, Gonzo, 1041 00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 27: follow him right, and then suddenly you're not left with 1042 00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:55,560 Speaker 27: numbers disadvantages everywhere because Seattle's so good at taking advantage 1043 00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:59,640 Speaker 27: of jsn's gravity. I'm sure you guys now have watched 1044 00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:01,840 Speaker 27: a lot of hate but inevitably, at some point in 1045 00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:04,359 Speaker 27: the game one of their miscellaneous tight ends is gonna 1046 00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:06,960 Speaker 27: be white ass open, because Jay said, you know, and 1047 00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:08,560 Speaker 27: a lot of it is. Usually they take most their 1048 00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:10,520 Speaker 27: shots off with play action, so that contributes to do 1049 00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,239 Speaker 27: as well. You're getting not just matchup advantages from a 1050 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,640 Speaker 27: personnel standpoint, although I think it's very interesting to see 1051 00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:17,680 Speaker 27: how New England plays that, but also just you get 1052 00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:19,680 Speaker 27: one on ones that way downfield. They run a lot 1053 00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:23,200 Speaker 27: of two man concepts with him, and he'll pull half 1054 00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:26,480 Speaker 27: the defense and someone is open. You have seen defenses 1055 00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:28,840 Speaker 27: pay hit him a lot of attention. Obviously, he faces 1056 00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:32,319 Speaker 27: a lot of cloud and I think Kink Kubiak has 1057 00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:34,440 Speaker 27: done a really good job of moving him around to 1058 00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:38,359 Speaker 27: avoid that. That's something I suspect we'll see a decent 1059 00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:39,960 Speaker 27: amount in this game. He'll put him in the backfield, 1060 00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:41,440 Speaker 27: he'll put him in the slot. That's something I'll be 1061 00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:44,120 Speaker 27: interesting seeing how much he does that. So for New England, 1062 00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:47,200 Speaker 27: I think it's it's challenging, but it's also something you 1063 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:49,600 Speaker 27: have to constantly adjust to within the game. You can't 1064 00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:51,880 Speaker 27: go in saying cool, he's gonna split out wide and 1065 00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:53,839 Speaker 27: we're gonna, you know, do one double or whatever, because 1066 00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 27: they're gonna move him around. 1067 00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:56,680 Speaker 26: You're gonna have to constantly reevaluate. 1068 00:49:56,520 --> 00:49:59,200 Speaker 4: Before you gotta go. You're MVP vote. 1069 00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:02,600 Speaker 12: You voted for Drake May. You're Drake May MVP voter. 1070 00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:05,480 Speaker 12: Just what what kind of put it over the top 1071 00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:07,080 Speaker 12: for you to vote for him over Stafford? 1072 00:50:07,239 --> 00:50:07,439 Speaker 28: Yeah? 1073 00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:07,759 Speaker 16: I know. 1074 00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:10,759 Speaker 27: So that is Thursday. I'm on first take with Dan. 1075 00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:14,360 Speaker 27: So Pats fans, please support me. I need your I 1076 00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:17,440 Speaker 27: need your help, especially given the postseason and I keeping 1077 00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:18,800 Speaker 27: like it's a regular season. 1078 00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:22,840 Speaker 4: I actually say, I think you said that in your podcast. 1079 00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:26,680 Speaker 27: I actually think what we're talking about too is like 1080 00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:30,160 Speaker 27: kind of confusing the conversation because I keep hearing like 1081 00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:32,239 Speaker 27: the pat stuff an elite defense and about and like 1082 00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:34,400 Speaker 27: that's literally, did you guys watch any games this year? 1083 00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 27: This is not what it looked like during the regular season. 1084 00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:38,239 Speaker 27: Has something I had to do with injuries, you know, 1085 00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:40,920 Speaker 27: But for me, it was like two things. So I 1086 00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:43,719 Speaker 27: look at dominance and then I look at value. So 1087 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:46,680 Speaker 27: from a dominance perspective, I thought, statistically it was not close. 1088 00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:49,920 Speaker 27: Drake beat him in just about Stafford right in basically 1089 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:53,080 Speaker 27: every metric possible, both the sort of more basic ones 1090 00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:57,120 Speaker 27: but also the advanced ones. You know, the opponent gets 1091 00:50:57,120 --> 00:50:59,279 Speaker 27: brought up a lot. My colleague Bill Bardenwall did an 1092 00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:01,600 Speaker 27: excellent piece. I think this was kind of first letting 1093 00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:04,839 Speaker 27: people understand that, yes, the Patriots faced a weaker slate 1094 00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:07,560 Speaker 27: of opponents, but it was really offenses more than defenses. 1095 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:10,000 Speaker 27: And if you actually divide it into defenses, it wasn't 1096 00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:12,960 Speaker 27: that different from what Matthew Stafford faced to me. And 1097 00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:15,080 Speaker 27: this is where maybe some passcows would be angry. That 1098 00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:17,000 Speaker 27: was actually more of a point against Mike Rabel winning 1099 00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:19,040 Speaker 27: Coach of the Year than it was against May's MVP. 1100 00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:21,959 Speaker 27: So there's statistically he beats him in every way. Okay, 1101 00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:23,719 Speaker 27: then there's the value thing, and I think this is 1102 00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:25,680 Speaker 27: what put it over the top for me. Matthew Stafford 1103 00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:27,320 Speaker 27: had the best run game in football by a pretty 1104 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:30,000 Speaker 27: significant margin this year and a top five defense. I know, 1105 00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:31,800 Speaker 27: we just saw them in the playoffs, I tell you. 1106 00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:33,640 Speaker 27: During the right the regular season, the Rams were like 1107 00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:36,400 Speaker 27: top five and DVOA New England run game and defense 1108 00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:38,560 Speaker 27: bottom ten in both regards. So if I'm looking at 1109 00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:41,000 Speaker 27: the team and I'm saying who did more, who carried 1110 00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:43,680 Speaker 27: more on their shoulders? Who is more responsible for By 1111 00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:46,719 Speaker 27: the way, a team that literally got you know that 1112 00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:50,520 Speaker 27: won their division unlike the other one, it's the young quarterback. 1113 00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:52,600 Speaker 26: So I didn't think it was particularly. 1114 00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:54,440 Speaker 8: Hard to be honest, Well, you don't need to convince us. 1115 00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:57,520 Speaker 9: I love the last part of that argument. Yeah more 1116 00:51:57,560 --> 00:52:00,480 Speaker 9: with less was responsible for more and you know, yeah, 1117 00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:01,880 Speaker 9: I mean that's what and. 1118 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:04,839 Speaker 27: Even bring up the oh yeah, yeah, my offensive player 1119 00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:05,120 Speaker 27: of the year. 1120 00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:07,080 Speaker 12: Right, so you have a guy that's offensive Player of 1121 00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:09,520 Speaker 12: the year, better offensive line, probably a little bit in 1122 00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:12,239 Speaker 12: with in the Rams, better run game.

And they've done 1190 00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:43,440 Speaker 12: a really good job I think with NFL Live of 1191 00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:48,239 Speaker 12: Mina or Lobsky getting some like actual analysis that's not 1192 00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:50,480 Speaker 12: just like Steven A yelling at a screen, you know, 1193 00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:53,799 Speaker 12: and we actually have some real ball knowers that are 1194 00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:57,040 Speaker 12: actually breaking down, you know, whether it's more analytical like 1195 00:54:57,160 --> 00:54:59,640 Speaker 12: Mina or the football side, you know, like or Lobsky 1196 00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:02,239 Speaker 12: where he he's a former player, but either one of 1197 00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:04,440 Speaker 12: them or you know, know a ton of footballs. 1198 00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:07,239 Speaker 6: And it's not easy doing what she's doing because she's 1199 00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:10,360 Speaker 6: a woman talking about football, and I think, you know, 1200 00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:14,440 Speaker 6: it's hard for them to kind of break through and 1201 00:55:14,600 --> 00:55:18,279 Speaker 6: be you know, respected for sure. I'm not saying that 1202 00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:22,560 Speaker 6: they're held to a different standard, but some people don't 1203 00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:25,040 Speaker 6: hear it when a woman is saying it as opposed 1204 00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:27,040 Speaker 6: to a man.

I'm 1222 00:56:11,880 --> 00:56:13,839 Speaker 6: looking to put some money on a few different bets 1223 00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 6: for the Super Bowl. I need to know how are 1224 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:18,759 Speaker 6: we going to attack the Seahawks and which players are 1225 00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:21,520 Speaker 6: going to have big games rushing and receiving. Well, I 1226 00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:25,360 Speaker 6: mean that's kind of a brilliant broad Also, and. 1227 00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:28,279 Speaker 29: You want to make money, tell me what's going to happen, right, Also, 1228 00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:31,000 Speaker 29: any under the radar players who could have a good 1229 00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:34,800 Speaker 29: game against us, like Bobo Shaheed, Arroyo Cup, et cetera, 1230 00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:36,560 Speaker 29: I mean, any of them. 1231 00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:39,040 Speaker 9: I think Cooper Cup is a guy sort of you know, 1232 00:56:39,239 --> 00:56:42,560 Speaker 9: I've been reading some some stats on him. He had 1233 00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:45,279 Speaker 9: a pretty modest regular season, but he seems like one 1234 00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:48,640 Speaker 9: of those guys that that Darnold is relying on in 1235 00:56:48,760 --> 00:56:49,360 Speaker 9: the playoffs. 1236 00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:50,560 Speaker 1: I think his numbers are. 1237 00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:53,280 Speaker 9: You know, I think he was catching about three passes 1238 00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:55,480 Speaker 9: a game, and he's almost up to like five in 1239 00:56:55,560 --> 00:56:58,719 Speaker 9: the playoffs, like four and a half catches, So he's 1240 00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:01,080 Speaker 9: gone to him more often postseason. He's a guy with 1241 00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:06,000 Speaker 9: postseason experience. MVP, you need a second guy. Obviously, shaheeds 1242 00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:08,799 Speaker 9: more of to me, like the one play, the one 1243 00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:10,000 Speaker 9: trick pony kind of guy. 1244 00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:12,160 Speaker 8: It's a good point Cooper Cup could be the guy 1245 00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:13,799 Speaker 8: I keep an eye if I was Seattle, I feel 1246 00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:16,800 Speaker 8: really good about having him as my second guy, especially 1247 00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:19,240 Speaker 8: as you pointed out, Paul, the experience, and you know, 1248 00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:20,520 Speaker 8: I would say Barner too. 1249 00:57:20,560 --> 00:57:21,160 Speaker 7: They're tight end. 1250 00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:22,560 Speaker 8: It's just I mean, I know the Patriots that that 1251 00:57:22,680 --> 00:57:25,120 Speaker 8: tight end thing hasn't quite been the same glaring problem 1252 00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:26,959 Speaker 8: that we kind of talked about a lot during the season. 1253 00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:28,560 Speaker 8: But I just think he's timely. 1254 00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:29,520 Speaker 7: He's a big player. 1255 00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:33,240 Speaker 8: Patriots linebackers a little bit smaller, safety's a little bit smaller, and. 1256 00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:34,840 Speaker 7: He's a big dude who can bux guys out. 1257 00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:37,480 Speaker 8: So you know, it's not really dynamic, but I still 1258 00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:42,720 Speaker 8: think he's one of those third and four he's I like, put. 1259 00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:45,320 Speaker 12: The boots in the play actions to Barner's just there's 1260 00:57:45,440 --> 00:57:47,760 Speaker 12: so much space underneath the defense because they're running the 1261 00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:52,320 Speaker 12: vertical routes off of those extended dropbacks, you know, longer dropbacks, 1262 00:57:52,360 --> 00:57:54,600 Speaker 12: and so guys are running down the field and then 1263 00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:57,320 Speaker 12: just naturally, the zone just gets stretched out and then 1264 00:57:57,400 --> 00:57:59,520 Speaker 12: Barner's just kind of wide open underneath the zone. 1265 00:57:59,520 --> 00:58:02,400 Speaker 9: I like the way she explained that just what Jasn does, 1266 00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:05,080 Speaker 9: it's so much more than just one hundred and nineteen catches. 1267 00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:06,640 Speaker 12: So yeah, yeah, and I think that you know your 1268 00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:09,160 Speaker 12: point about Cup, Paul is, to me, that's one of 1269 00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:11,960 Speaker 12: the biggest matchups in the game is it's probably gonna 1270 00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:14,280 Speaker 12: be two you know, kind of crafty vets in Carlton 1271 00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:16,760 Speaker 12: Davis and Cooper Cup, and they're gonna be one on 1272 00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:18,720 Speaker 12: one for a lot of this game because all the 1273 00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:21,400 Speaker 12: extra attention is gonna have to go to JSN. So 1274 00:58:21,760 --> 00:58:23,800 Speaker 12: you know, Carlon Davi is gonna have to win that matchup. 1275 00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:25,720 Speaker 12: You know, whoever wins that matchup, I think is gonna 1276 00:58:25,720 --> 00:58:26,840 Speaker 12: be a big key in the game. 1277 00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:30,320 Speaker 6: Jordan Kentucky wants to know, and I don't know the 1278 00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:32,640 Speaker 6: answer to this.

I didn't 1280 00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:35,760 Speaker 6: hear about it. 1281 00:58:35,880 --> 00:58:36,800 Speaker 4: No, I heard. 1282 00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:38,920 Speaker 12: I saw some like Twitter clips of it, but I 1283 00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:42,480 Speaker 12: did not. I don't want to, you know, misquote him 1284 00:58:42,520 --> 00:58:45,040 Speaker 12: or anything. I didn't see exactly what he said, but 1285 00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:48,200 Speaker 12: it looked like maybe he said something about he felt 1286 00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:50,520 Speaker 12: that he was like disrespected or something like that. 1287 00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:54,600 Speaker 6: Kelly writes in Holy Crap, mena Kime, She's the best. 1288 00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:58,840 Speaker 6: Love her match to Eclaires on The Great British Bakeoff. 1289 00:58:59,080 --> 00:59:02,120 Speaker 8: Okay, so she's on the Bakeoff now too, right, Like 1290 00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:05,200 Speaker 8: that's doing I think she was just recently on it. Yeah, 1291 00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:09,800 Speaker 8: they did, like an American version of The of the Yeah. Okay, 1292 00:59:09,880 --> 00:59:11,720 Speaker 8: I bet she's good at it. She seems like she's 1293 00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:13,160 Speaker 8: probably good at everything she does. 1294 00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:19,920 Speaker 6: Kendall's in North Carolina on the hotline. What's up, Kendall, Kendall. 1295 00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:27,919 Speaker 6: Kendall's gone, go on, He's gone. All right, Let's see 1296 00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:33,160 Speaker 6: who's Rick and Riverside, Rhode Island. RKK should be in 1297 00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:35,240 Speaker 6: the Hall of Fame based solely on the courage he 1298 00:59:35,360 --> 00:59:38,800 Speaker 6: showed in changing course after the Year of Mayo. Patriot 1299 00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:41,560 Speaker 6: Nation loves Mail the player, but it didn't work out 1300 00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:44,440 Speaker 6: as a coach. Maybe it was divine intervention that Rabel 1301 00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:48,120 Speaker 6: didn't get hired in twenty twenty four, making him available 1302 00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:51,520 Speaker 6: for RKK to make the change. Rabel has completely reshaped 1303 00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:54,440 Speaker 6: his team. His love of his players while maintaining the 1304 00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:56,840 Speaker 6: discipline needed to win in the NFL is awesome. 1305 00:59:57,480 --> 00:59:59,640 Speaker 4: We have a young foundation to build on in the 1306 00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:00,400 Speaker 4: future is bright. 1307 01:00:01,080 --> 01:00:03,520 Speaker 6: I predict the Patriots will play their best game of 1308 01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:07,760 Speaker 6: the season and when thirty one seventeen, I believe Josh 1309 01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:10,040 Speaker 6: will have a game plan to take advantage of Drake's 1310 01:00:10,080 --> 01:00:12,600 Speaker 6: running ability, and the defense will be hungry. 1311 01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:14,280 Speaker 4: So there you go. 1312 01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:16,440 Speaker 8: I It's just a thing that's kind of occurred to 1313 01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:19,120 Speaker 8: me here that I've never really seen before, is this 1314 01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:21,240 Speaker 8: team doesn't really seem like they want the season to 1315 01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:23,360 Speaker 8: end and that they want to all go their separate ways. 1316 01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:26,720 Speaker 8: Like it seems like they truly enjoy playing together, being together, 1317 01:00:26,760 --> 01:00:29,120 Speaker 8: and being part of this team. Saw another quote from 1318 01:00:29,160 --> 01:00:31,480 Speaker 8: Jared Wilson that echoed something that Will Campbell's said of 1319 01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:34,240 Speaker 8: just like everyone told me it's going to be different 1320 01:00:34,240 --> 01:00:36,800 Speaker 8: in the NFL, how hard it's going to be, But 1321 01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:38,480 Speaker 8: I don't this is If this is how it is, 1322 01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:39,960 Speaker 8: I love it. I want I don't want to play 1323 01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:42,360 Speaker 8: anywhere else. So I think they've just established that culture 1324 01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:45,280 Speaker 8: in an outstanding way. And I think these guys here 1325 01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:46,760 Speaker 8: they they want to keep playing. 1326 01:00:46,760 --> 01:00:50,640 Speaker 7: All right. Joining us now is Howard Ballzer and uh, 1327 01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:52,440 Speaker 7: he'll get set up here.

But Howard's one of our alumni. 1346 01:01:37,320 --> 01:01:39,240 Speaker 7: So there we go. Welcome to the show. This is 1347 01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:41,439 Speaker 7: what we do. Now, we's all video now. 1348 01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:43,800 Speaker 17: I say exactly, Oh yeah, yeah, that's not the way 1349 01:01:43,840 --> 01:01:44,640 Speaker 17: it's gone everywhere. 1350 01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:45,240 Speaker 7: Right, yeah. 1351 01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:49,280 Speaker 6: So tell our our audience a ten, tend to be younger. 1352 01:01:49,720 --> 01:01:52,160 Speaker 6: Tell them how long you've been covering the NFL. 1353 01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:56,200 Speaker 17: Well, this is my forty fifth game, forty fifty. Yes, 1354 01:01:56,760 --> 01:02:01,360 Speaker 17: the game will conclude my fiftieth season covering the NFL. 1355 01:02:01,960 --> 01:02:05,080 Speaker 17: And of course maybe this week the most more controversial 1356 01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:08,320 Speaker 17: than normal years, is the twenty third time that I've 1357 01:02:08,320 --> 01:02:10,880 Speaker 17: been involved in the election for the Pro Football Hall 1358 01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:11,200 Speaker 17: of Fame. 1359 01:02:12,120 --> 01:02:14,880 Speaker 7: So we want to get right into let's get right. 1360 01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:16,480 Speaker 17: Why would that be? 1361 01:02:16,800 --> 01:02:17,000 Speaker 10: Yeah? 1362 01:02:17,200 --> 01:02:19,600 Speaker 6: I mean, as you probably know, Patriot's Nation is up 1363 01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:22,120 Speaker 6: in arms, not just because of Bill Belichick, but also 1364 01:02:22,160 --> 01:02:25,760 Speaker 6: because of Robert Kraft. And you know, tell us why 1365 01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:31,200 Speaker 6: somebody like Bill Belichick wouldn't get in on the first ballot. 1366 01:02:32,760 --> 01:02:35,120 Speaker 17: There's a lot of nuance here. And I could talk 1367 01:02:35,160 --> 01:02:36,840 Speaker 17: about this for a long time. I'll try to be 1368 01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:42,480 Speaker 17: as succinct as possible. But the Pro Football Hall of Fame, 1369 01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:44,840 Speaker 17: and I don't want to sound like I'm blaming it 1370 01:02:44,960 --> 01:02:48,680 Speaker 17: all on them, because all the selectors make their individual decisions, 1371 01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:51,440 Speaker 17: but the Pro Football Hall of Fame put us in 1372 01:02:51,480 --> 01:02:56,280 Speaker 17: a very difficult position beginning with last year. And let 1373 01:02:56,360 --> 01:02:59,600 Speaker 17: me go back eleven years to what I'm going to 1374 01:02:59,680 --> 01:03:01,720 Speaker 17: lay out here, because I think it's very important and 1375 01:03:01,720 --> 01:03:03,880 Speaker 17: a lot of people don't know. I'm a detailed guy. 1376 01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:07,440 Speaker 17: Anyone who's following me knows, Yay, I have ideas, opinions, 1377 01:03:07,520 --> 01:03:10,680 Speaker 17: but I'm also very detailed with numbers and processes and 1378 01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:15,360 Speaker 17: all those things. Eleven years ago, the Hall of Fame 1379 01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:20,440 Speaker 17: decided to create a contributor committee separate from the regular 1380 01:03:20,520 --> 01:03:23,560 Speaker 17: election because up until that point, and that's a lot 1381 01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:26,000 Speaker 17: of years, over fifty years of the Pro Football Hall 1382 01:03:26,000 --> 01:03:33,200 Speaker 17: of Fame, contributors, coaches, senior players were considered within the 1383 01:03:34,200 --> 01:03:37,000 Speaker 17: along with the modern day guys. Well, it got to 1384 01:03:37,080 --> 01:03:39,240 Speaker 17: the point where contributors it was hard. It was hard 1385 01:03:39,280 --> 01:03:41,440 Speaker 17: to get especially contributors and coaches. It was hard to 1386 01:03:41,480 --> 01:03:45,240 Speaker 17: get them in right because you're competing against modern day players. 1387 01:03:45,760 --> 01:03:49,960 Speaker 17: So in twenty fifteen they could created the contributor category 1388 01:03:50,560 --> 01:03:54,200 Speaker 17: and that led to the first one, Bill Pollian, Ron Wolfe, 1389 01:03:54,840 --> 01:03:58,880 Speaker 17: Gil Brandt, Bobby Bethard, Pat Bolan, Jerry Jones. It led 1390 01:03:58,920 --> 01:04:02,120 Speaker 17: to all these contributors getting in right. Coaches were still 1391 01:04:02,160 --> 01:04:06,160 Speaker 17: considered with the modern day guys. In twenty twenty one, 1392 01:04:06,680 --> 01:04:09,720 Speaker 17: the year after the centennial class, they removed the coaches 1393 01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:14,040 Speaker 17: for the modern day guys and created a coach subcommittee 1394 01:04:14,040 --> 01:04:17,760 Speaker 17: where a coach would be put forward. In twenty twenty two, 1395 01:04:18,240 --> 01:04:21,120 Speaker 17: the decision was made, you know, we've gotten a lot 1396 01:04:21,160 --> 01:04:23,880 Speaker 17: of contributors in the list of nominees and all that 1397 01:04:24,800 --> 01:04:27,800 Speaker 17: quite honestly wasn't as strong, and so they decided to 1398 01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:32,120 Speaker 17: combine the coach and the contributor committee into one and 1399 01:04:32,280 --> 01:04:34,240 Speaker 17: then there would only be one of either of them 1400 01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:37,600 Speaker 17: that would be advanced as a finalist. Twenty twenty three 1401 01:04:37,880 --> 01:04:40,760 Speaker 17: was the sea change when there was a lot of 1402 01:04:40,840 --> 01:04:44,800 Speaker 17: talk if people out there, if any of you guys, 1403 01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:47,760 Speaker 17: if you ever saw the list of guys that are 1404 01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:50,720 Speaker 17: in the seniors what we call the abyss, some have 1405 01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:53,200 Speaker 17: called the dark hole, if you look at the guys 1406 01:04:53,240 --> 01:04:55,960 Speaker 17: that are in there, you say home on I would say, 1407 01:04:55,960 --> 01:04:57,840 Speaker 17: any normal fan would say, Oh, that guy's not in. 1408 01:04:58,080 --> 01:04:58,760 Speaker 7: That guy's not in. 1409 01:04:59,040 --> 01:05:01,680 Speaker 17: That guy's not in. So what they decided to do 1410 01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:07,560 Speaker 17: to create more seniors getting in was to have three finalists. Now, 1411 01:05:07,840 --> 01:05:11,080 Speaker 17: the key is when we voted on the seniors, when 1412 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:15,120 Speaker 17: we voted on the coach or the contributor or the 1413 01:05:15,200 --> 01:05:20,919 Speaker 17: combined one, we voted yes or no on each individual guy. 1414 01:05:21,600 --> 01:05:24,040 Speaker 17: So there's fifty voters, that means that one of those 1415 01:05:24,120 --> 01:05:27,400 Speaker 17: have to get forty. Whoever gets forty votes gets elected. 1416 01:05:27,960 --> 01:05:30,560 Speaker 17: So the first year, the first two years of the Seniors, 1417 01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:35,760 Speaker 17: three five of the six seniors got in. One of 1418 01:05:35,800 --> 01:05:37,960 Speaker 17: the receiver from the Raiders, ar Powell did not get 1419 01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:40,960 Speaker 17: the eighty percent the forty votes, so he didn't get elected, 1420 01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:44,280 Speaker 17: but five of the six did. Last year, all of 1421 01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:48,120 Speaker 17: a sudden, out of nowhere, they changed the whole voting 1422 01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:54,480 Speaker 17: process for the modern day guys and the group of five, 1423 01:05:54,560 --> 01:06:00,680 Speaker 17: if you will to instead of voting individually, we would 1424 01:06:00,920 --> 01:06:02,560 Speaker 17: say in this in this group, which you guys are 1425 01:06:02,600 --> 01:06:07,080 Speaker 17: most concerned with, we voted for only three of the five. 1426 01:06:07,720 --> 01:06:10,120 Speaker 17: So then they put us in a position to make 1427 01:06:10,240 --> 01:06:14,800 Speaker 17: decisions with guys they had consciously said shouldn't compete against 1428 01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:17,840 Speaker 17: each other, to now be competing against each other, right, 1429 01:06:18,360 --> 01:06:20,600 Speaker 17: and so a lot of people have said in the 1430 01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:23,680 Speaker 17: last week, well it's not right. You know, why should 1431 01:06:23,760 --> 01:06:29,520 Speaker 17: selectors quote prioritize seniors players? Is Vaje. Gregorian from Kansas City, 1432 01:06:29,640 --> 01:06:33,439 Speaker 17: wrote that he did well. The Hall of Fame prioritized 1433 01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:36,959 Speaker 17: seniors guys by having three of them and then making 1434 01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:39,440 Speaker 17: a decision on the Contributors committee to combine it at 1435 01:06:39,480 --> 01:06:41,560 Speaker 17: one point with the coaches because they didn't think there 1436 01:06:41,600 --> 01:06:44,000 Speaker 17: was enough of them that were worthy. Well, now they 1437 01:06:44,440 --> 01:06:47,040 Speaker 17: forced us to make a decision. And the numbers telling 1438 01:06:47,040 --> 01:06:49,200 Speaker 17: you now, what they said was there's a minimum of 1439 01:06:49,240 --> 01:06:51,720 Speaker 17: one and a maximum of three. And they said, well, 1440 01:06:51,760 --> 01:06:53,480 Speaker 17: we were told by people that we would at least 1441 01:06:53,520 --> 01:06:56,720 Speaker 17: get two from one group and four from the other. Well, 1442 01:06:56,720 --> 01:06:58,520 Speaker 17: I don't know if that person has any knowledge of 1443 01:06:58,640 --> 01:07:02,520 Speaker 17: math or basic arithmetic. But let's just say, for argument's sake, 1444 01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:06,760 Speaker 17: that this year Bill Belichick and Robert Craft got forty votes. Right, 1445 01:07:07,320 --> 01:07:09,720 Speaker 17: maybe they would have gone if it was you know, 1446 01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:11,919 Speaker 17: I think they'd get more if it was an upper 1447 01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:13,960 Speaker 17: down thing. I think they'd both be in if it 1448 01:07:14,040 --> 01:07:16,200 Speaker 17: was up or down. Right, But let's say in this 1449 01:07:16,280 --> 01:07:19,600 Speaker 17: process they each got forty, just for argument's sake, Well, 1450 01:07:19,640 --> 01:07:23,600 Speaker 17: that only leaves seventy votes for the other for the 1451 01:07:23,680 --> 01:07:26,440 Speaker 17: seniors players, So what are the chances of winning one 1452 01:07:26,480 --> 01:07:28,920 Speaker 17: of them when they're all very deserving of getting forty 1453 01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:31,760 Speaker 17: Because votes get split, And so I believe in this 1454 01:07:31,880 --> 01:07:35,280 Speaker 17: case the votes between Bill Belichick and Robert Craft got 1455 01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:37,680 Speaker 17: split because I wouldn't make the argument. I mean, heck, 1456 01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:41,400 Speaker 17: he's been eligible for quite a while and this is 1457 01:07:41,440 --> 01:07:43,920 Speaker 17: the first time he's ever been a finalist. How does 1458 01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:45,840 Speaker 17: that happen? And I think you can make the case 1459 01:07:45,880 --> 01:07:48,640 Speaker 17: that he is as deserving as Bill, or maybe even 1460 01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:50,920 Speaker 17: more deserving, for everything he's done, not only with the 1461 01:07:50,960 --> 01:07:54,280 Speaker 17: Patriots getting to a super Bowl before Bell Belichick was 1462 01:07:54,320 --> 01:07:56,680 Speaker 17: the coach. Now getting to what we didn't know at 1463 01:07:56,720 --> 01:07:58,480 Speaker 17: the time we voted, they were gonna get there this year, 1464 01:07:58,600 --> 01:08:00,840 Speaker 17: but we knew they'd want a playoff when we voted, 1465 01:08:01,600 --> 01:08:04,040 Speaker 17: not to mention all the things he's done for the league. 1466 01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:08,520 Speaker 17: So point is, I'm absolutely sure that I'm not saying that. 1467 01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:11,480 Speaker 17: And nobody voted for both of them, but anyone who 1468 01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:13,400 Speaker 17: voted for one or the other, I think there was 1469 01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:15,040 Speaker 17: a conscious decision. I'm going to vote for one or 1470 01:08:15,080 --> 01:08:17,400 Speaker 17: the other and vote for two of the three players, 1471 01:08:17,840 --> 01:08:20,320 Speaker 17: and so that and so I know there's all the debates, 1472 01:08:20,360 --> 01:08:22,599 Speaker 17: but Bill Belichick, he did all this first time eligible. 1473 01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:25,040 Speaker 17: You get, you get to be a Seniors finalist, and 1474 01:08:25,120 --> 01:08:28,360 Speaker 17: you don't get elected. Guess what, Yeah, you're probably not 1475 01:08:28,479 --> 01:08:30,920 Speaker 17: coming back. And if you come back into the room 1476 01:08:30,960 --> 01:08:33,080 Speaker 17: to be discussed, it might be five or ten years 1477 01:08:33,479 --> 01:08:35,360 Speaker 17: down the road. And so I'm not saying that's right 1478 01:08:35,439 --> 01:08:38,360 Speaker 17: or wrong, but that's the way some people feel about it, 1479 01:08:38,479 --> 01:08:41,760 Speaker 17: and prioritizing players when the Hall of Fame prioritize. 1480 01:08:42,160 --> 01:08:44,960 Speaker 6: But to me, what seems to be the root problem 1481 01:08:45,080 --> 01:08:48,720 Speaker 6: here is this numbers thing. It's like we have to 1482 01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:52,400 Speaker 6: have three or we can't have more than five. It's like, 1483 01:08:53,360 --> 01:08:56,200 Speaker 6: why why can't you have more than five? Why can't 1484 01:08:56,240 --> 01:08:59,160 Speaker 6: you have less than three. Why can't one year no. 1485 01:08:59,240 --> 01:09:01,840 Speaker 13: One is out, only one is worthy, Like, I don't 1486 01:09:01,920 --> 01:09:05,080 Speaker 13: understand why they put these quotas, and that seems to 1487 01:09:05,200 --> 01:09:09,360 Speaker 13: be the problem that puts you guys into a bind where, well, 1488 01:09:09,560 --> 01:09:11,439 Speaker 13: you know, we're only gonna be allowed to have three 1489 01:09:11,560 --> 01:09:14,639 Speaker 13: from this category in there where if there's five people 1490 01:09:14,720 --> 01:09:17,400 Speaker 13: that are slammed dunks, five people should get in. 1491 01:09:17,600 --> 01:09:20,200 Speaker 17: And I'm with you, and I believe that if this, 1492 01:09:20,520 --> 01:09:23,680 Speaker 17: if this was done as it had been done, yes 1493 01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:26,519 Speaker 17: or now yes or no on all five people. I 1494 01:09:26,640 --> 01:09:29,840 Speaker 17: believe that maybe all five get in. Maybe only two 1495 01:09:29,880 --> 01:09:32,880 Speaker 17: of the players plus craft in Belichick, maybe only four, 1496 01:09:33,320 --> 01:09:35,800 Speaker 17: But it certainly would be because I believe what we're 1497 01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:38,200 Speaker 17: gonna see tomorrow night. I believe there's only gonna be 1498 01:09:38,240 --> 01:09:40,439 Speaker 17: one player that gets in. And I'll tell you something 1499 01:09:40,479 --> 01:09:43,040 Speaker 17: else that's weird with the process. They talk about the 1500 01:09:43,160 --> 01:09:46,960 Speaker 17: sanctity of the eighty percent. Right, Well, here, guess what 1501 01:09:47,720 --> 01:09:52,160 Speaker 17: if no one gets forty percent or forty votes from 1502 01:09:52,200 --> 01:09:54,400 Speaker 17: that group of five, guess what they're taking the one 1503 01:09:54,479 --> 01:09:55,960 Speaker 17: person who got the most votes. 1504 01:09:56,080 --> 01:09:56,679 Speaker 7: Oh my god. 1505 01:09:56,840 --> 01:09:58,920 Speaker 17: And in the modern day, guys, same thing, they say 1506 01:09:58,960 --> 01:10:01,639 Speaker 17: there has to be a minimum three if two only 1507 01:10:01,720 --> 01:10:04,519 Speaker 17: get forty votes, then they're taking the next guy with 1508 01:10:04,640 --> 01:10:06,040 Speaker 17: who had the most votes. 1509 01:10:06,160 --> 01:10:06,680 Speaker 7: So think of that. 1510 01:10:06,840 --> 01:10:09,240 Speaker 17: Let's say somebody gets in and they don't announce it. 1511 01:10:09,439 --> 01:10:11,680 Speaker 17: They don't anounce it. Let's say somebody gets in and 1512 01:10:11,800 --> 01:10:14,240 Speaker 17: nobody talks about this stuff. Let's say somebody gets in 1513 01:10:14,360 --> 01:10:17,920 Speaker 17: one year, any year, and has thirty seven votes or 1514 01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:20,800 Speaker 17: thirty eight. Right then the next year they get enough 1515 01:10:20,880 --> 01:10:23,479 Speaker 17: guys with forty and someone has thirty seven or thirty 1516 01:10:23,479 --> 01:10:25,559 Speaker 17: eight or thirty nine. They don't get in, even though 1517 01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:27,640 Speaker 17: they had more than someone else who got into the 1518 01:10:27,680 --> 01:10:31,599 Speaker 17: previous year. Defies logic, It defies anything. And I'll say 1519 01:10:31,640 --> 01:10:35,439 Speaker 17: one other point about your general point. And I was 1520 01:10:35,479 --> 01:10:38,519 Speaker 17: on an interview this morning and someone was saying the 1521 01:10:38,640 --> 01:10:40,800 Speaker 17: Dion argument, Well, it should be only the elite of 1522 01:10:40,840 --> 01:10:45,519 Speaker 17: the elite, right, Well then they and I said, then 1523 01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:48,240 Speaker 17: you get guys who aren't Barry Sanders or Emmitt Smith 1524 01:10:48,360 --> 01:10:50,960 Speaker 17: or Jerry Wright, whatever it might be, and so those 1525 01:10:51,040 --> 01:10:53,400 Speaker 17: shouldn't be Hall of famers. I said, well, the bottom 1526 01:10:53,479 --> 01:10:57,000 Speaker 17: line is from the inception of the Hall of Fame, 1527 01:10:58,360 --> 01:11:03,040 Speaker 17: they mandated minimums. Once you mandate minimums, you're going to 1528 01:11:03,120 --> 01:11:05,400 Speaker 17: have guys other than the elite. And then once you 1529 01:11:05,520 --> 01:11:08,200 Speaker 17: open the door to that, then it becomes well, I 1530 01:11:08,240 --> 01:11:10,679 Speaker 17: don't know about aren't monk, Oh, what about Andre Reid? 1531 01:11:10,720 --> 01:11:13,120 Speaker 17: What about you know, I'm only talking about one position. 1532 01:11:13,479 --> 01:11:15,160 Speaker 17: And so they get compared to look at other guys 1533 01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:18,400 Speaker 17: who have gotten in, and you say, well, they're deserving 1534 01:11:18,439 --> 01:11:22,000 Speaker 17: as those guys. And so that's the way it is. 1535 01:11:22,040 --> 01:11:23,280 Speaker 17: I don't know that the labor get to a thing 1536 01:11:23,280 --> 01:11:24,880 Speaker 17: where you said, I'll just have more and more and more. 1537 01:11:25,080 --> 01:11:29,280 Speaker 17: I actually presented a an idea a few years ago 1538 01:11:29,880 --> 01:11:32,639 Speaker 17: because the one thing that bothers me, especially as being 1539 01:11:33,160 --> 01:11:39,160 Speaker 17: quote an old guy, is recency bias. Of the fifteen 1540 01:11:39,320 --> 01:11:44,120 Speaker 17: finalists this year, nine were first or second year eligibles, 1541 01:11:45,720 --> 01:11:48,640 Speaker 17: and those are those are people that the committee that 1542 01:11:48,760 --> 01:11:53,200 Speaker 17: has gotten younger just saw in the twenty twenty season, right, 1543 01:11:54,280 --> 01:11:58,080 Speaker 17: Willie Anderson, Tory Holt. Tory Holt's been eligible for twelve years, 1544 01:11:58,360 --> 01:12:00,080 Speaker 17: you know who, A lot of people to commit. He 1545 01:12:00,160 --> 01:12:03,400 Speaker 17: never even saw him play, right, and so but now 1546 01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:05,599 Speaker 17: it's it's trending even more. I don't know what's gonna 1547 01:12:05,600 --> 01:12:09,400 Speaker 17: happen tomorrow night, but I would suspect that there's gonna 1548 01:12:09,439 --> 01:12:12,920 Speaker 17: be you know, first first time eligibles and the second 1549 01:12:12,960 --> 01:12:16,040 Speaker 17: time eligibles. You know, last year Adam Vineccieri didn't get 1550 01:12:16,080 --> 01:12:18,479 Speaker 17: in as the first time eligible. I think he, you know, 1551 01:12:18,560 --> 01:12:20,479 Speaker 17: he very well could this year. So I think that, 1552 01:12:21,439 --> 01:12:23,800 Speaker 17: you know, hurts it because the numbers tell you. 1553 01:12:24,080 --> 01:12:24,720 Speaker 7: I know that. 1554 01:12:26,200 --> 01:12:29,360 Speaker 17: When you have even even the old way, it was hard. 1555 01:12:29,360 --> 01:12:31,000 Speaker 17: And I'll get to what my idea was in a second. 1556 01:12:31,040 --> 01:12:33,000 Speaker 17: Even the old way, if you have five finalists, they 1557 01:12:33,040 --> 01:12:35,479 Speaker 17: all get in. Now you have ten guys coming back, right, 1558 01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:37,720 Speaker 17: but then you have first time eligibles coming into it, 1559 01:12:37,840 --> 01:12:40,439 Speaker 17: who are at least in the final fifteen. Well, that 1560 01:12:40,640 --> 01:12:43,760 Speaker 17: keeps some other people that can't even get in the 1561 01:12:43,840 --> 01:12:46,720 Speaker 17: room to be discussed. It's hard to get in that room. 1562 01:12:47,080 --> 01:12:48,680 Speaker 17: And then all of a sudden they're not in the 1563 01:12:48,720 --> 01:12:51,040 Speaker 17: final fifteen for a few years, and then they're kind 1564 01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:52,960 Speaker 17: of forgotten about. Then all of a sudden they come back, 1565 01:12:53,000 --> 01:12:55,000 Speaker 17: like an Eric Allen last year, I think it was 1566 01:12:55,040 --> 01:12:58,160 Speaker 17: in his eighteenth year of eligibility, and he gets elected 1567 01:12:58,280 --> 01:12:59,920 Speaker 17: because of thinking, oh, we don't want him going into 1568 01:12:59,960 --> 01:13:02,519 Speaker 17: the senior's abyss. And so those are some of the 1569 01:13:02,960 --> 01:13:06,320 Speaker 17: little things that happened. So my idea was, and I 1570 01:13:06,479 --> 01:13:07,720 Speaker 17: was told by someone in the Hall of Fame, we 1571 01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:09,600 Speaker 17: don't care if we have a big class, right, So 1572 01:13:09,680 --> 01:13:11,240 Speaker 17: I said, well, why don't you have a thing where 1573 01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:17,800 Speaker 17: with a maximum two if one or two first time 1574 01:13:17,840 --> 01:13:22,439 Speaker 17: eligibles get elected and another one or two guys that 1575 01:13:22,560 --> 01:13:25,439 Speaker 17: had the next most votes and have a bigger class, 1576 01:13:25,920 --> 01:13:27,960 Speaker 17: but don't make it harder for some of those other 1577 01:13:28,040 --> 01:13:31,720 Speaker 17: guys to get in, because the first time eligibles, you know, 1578 01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:33,679 Speaker 17: and end up getting in a lot of the times 1579 01:13:33,720 --> 01:13:35,880 Speaker 17: there Now, last year there weren't one any of those, 1580 01:13:36,120 --> 01:13:38,639 Speaker 17: maybe because of the process, but in previous years there's 1581 01:13:38,680 --> 01:13:41,559 Speaker 17: times when there's been two or three first time eligibles 1582 01:13:41,600 --> 01:13:44,160 Speaker 17: come in, and that hurts other guys who have been 1583 01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:45,880 Speaker 17: waiting for quite a long time. 1584 01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:50,519 Speaker 7: So anyway, it's it's to me, it's they're over complicating it. 1585 01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:53,360 Speaker 30: It's more changes they're going to be yeah, probably yeah, 1586 01:13:53,479 --> 01:13:55,479 Speaker 30: And they're probably especially with that with this the way, 1587 01:13:55,520 --> 01:13:57,600 Speaker 30: the way, this WI all the way all you know, 1588 01:13:57,720 --> 01:13:59,960 Speaker 30: all this happened, and I didn't talk that much about 1589 01:14:00,160 --> 01:14:01,880 Speaker 30: it in the last week because I didn't think it 1590 01:14:02,000 --> 01:14:05,040 Speaker 30: should be talked about because we didn't know Robert Kraft's 1591 01:14:05,080 --> 01:14:07,960 Speaker 30: fate and I don't there's in my mind, there's no 1592 01:14:08,320 --> 01:14:11,280 Speaker 30: question that those two guys being in in the same. 1593 01:14:11,160 --> 01:14:14,840 Speaker 17: Year as the finalists ended up hurting each other. 1594 01:14:15,600 --> 01:14:18,559 Speaker 12: And and I want to ask you a question because 1595 01:14:19,040 --> 01:14:22,080 Speaker 12: I think for a lot of Patriots fans they feel 1596 01:14:22,360 --> 01:14:26,479 Speaker 12: like there's a bias towards the Patriots that's growing. You know, 1597 01:14:27,200 --> 01:14:30,360 Speaker 12: Bill Belichick doesn't get it on the first ballot, Mister 1598 01:14:30,439 --> 01:14:33,200 Speaker 12: Craft can't get in period. Out of Mintaria, doesn't get 1599 01:14:33,200 --> 01:14:35,720 Speaker 12: it in the first ballot. Do you when you have 1600 01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:39,080 Speaker 12: these deliberations, do you sense that there's any saltiness or 1601 01:14:39,280 --> 01:14:40,880 Speaker 12: anything like that towards the team. 1602 01:14:41,080 --> 01:14:42,240 Speaker 17: No, don't sense that. 1603 01:14:42,400 --> 01:14:42,519 Speaker 4: Now. 1604 01:14:42,840 --> 01:14:45,720 Speaker 17: I will say that in the discussion for Bill Belichick 1605 01:14:46,120 --> 01:14:49,720 Speaker 17: that spygate was discussed, and there was there was, you know, 1606 01:14:49,920 --> 01:14:53,720 Speaker 17: some pushing back pretty hard on that, and so it 1607 01:14:53,880 --> 01:14:57,400 Speaker 17: was discussed. The flake gate very little. It wasn't you know, 1608 01:14:57,520 --> 01:14:59,599 Speaker 17: talked about, you know, all that much. And it didn't 1609 01:14:59,640 --> 01:15:02,200 Speaker 17: come up in the discussion for Robert Kraft because I 1610 01:15:02,240 --> 01:15:04,840 Speaker 17: think there is the belief that he didn't know. I 1611 01:15:04,880 --> 01:15:08,080 Speaker 17: don't think he might not have either, he didn't know 1612 01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:10,840 Speaker 17: about that, and that you cannot. 1613 01:15:13,880 --> 01:15:14,320 Speaker 1: Discussion. 1614 01:15:15,920 --> 01:15:18,840 Speaker 17: I said, there was very little. It was mentioned but 1615 01:15:18,920 --> 01:15:22,240 Speaker 17: it wasn't discussed as much as Sky as spygate was. 1616 01:15:22,840 --> 01:15:26,080 Speaker 17: And it's kind of it. And I know it's probably, hey, 1617 01:15:26,160 --> 01:15:28,640 Speaker 17: there's there's a got sick of the Patriots and all that, 1618 01:15:28,720 --> 01:15:30,200 Speaker 17: a certain number of people out there, but it was 1619 01:15:30,280 --> 01:15:33,200 Speaker 17: interesting to me. Obviously we don't know all the vitriol 1620 01:15:33,280 --> 01:15:35,640 Speaker 17: last week was and I saw someone said, I'm not 1621 01:15:35,680 --> 01:15:37,959 Speaker 17: even a Patriots fan, but this is crazy and spygate 1622 01:15:38,080 --> 01:15:40,600 Speaker 17: shouldn't even be considered, you know. And the funny thing 1623 01:15:40,640 --> 01:15:44,120 Speaker 17: to me is Jimmy Johnson his quote, well, oh everybody 1624 01:15:44,240 --> 01:15:46,479 Speaker 17: was trying it, or we tried and it didn't work. Well, 1625 01:15:46,479 --> 01:15:49,040 Speaker 17: I said, well, I will say this, maybe we should 1626 01:15:49,040 --> 01:15:51,320 Speaker 17: take him out. Well maybe, but I will say this, 1627 01:15:52,320 --> 01:15:57,280 Speaker 17: and total objectivity. If it wasn't working to some level 1628 01:15:58,000 --> 01:15:59,760 Speaker 17: for the Patriots, why would they have done it for 1629 01:15:59,840 --> 01:16:00,320 Speaker 17: so along? 1630 01:16:00,880 --> 01:16:01,040 Speaker 10: You know? 1631 01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:03,400 Speaker 17: So there was something there. I think the Patriots, we 1632 01:16:03,400 --> 01:16:03,680 Speaker 17: don't know. 1633 01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:06,680 Speaker 6: How much with spygate was not that they did it 1634 01:16:06,760 --> 01:16:12,200 Speaker 6: because teams were trying to decipher you know, uh signals 1635 01:16:12,240 --> 01:16:14,439 Speaker 6: in their own different way. But when they were told 1636 01:16:14,479 --> 01:16:17,400 Speaker 6: to stop, they did. That's that's that was their sin. 1637 01:16:17,920 --> 01:16:20,200 Speaker 6: And they were told to stop and they didn't stop and. 1638 01:16:20,240 --> 01:16:21,920 Speaker 17: Then at the end and that that happened with the 1639 01:16:22,000 --> 01:16:24,880 Speaker 17: Saints with the bounty scandal, where they were told to 1640 01:16:24,920 --> 01:16:27,519 Speaker 17: stop and they didn't and the league came down on them. 1641 01:16:27,720 --> 01:16:32,599 Speaker 17: And so what's what's interesting is that when the whole 1642 01:16:32,640 --> 01:16:35,960 Speaker 17: investigation came and then the League told the Patriots to 1643 01:16:36,040 --> 01:16:38,560 Speaker 17: just told Belichick and the Patriot to destroy the or 1644 01:16:38,640 --> 01:16:41,400 Speaker 17: to hand over the tapes, and they refused. So the 1645 01:16:41,479 --> 01:16:43,680 Speaker 17: League comes there and destroys them right well, and some 1646 01:16:43,720 --> 01:16:45,519 Speaker 17: almost say, well, why did they destroy them? But I 1647 01:16:45,560 --> 01:16:47,200 Speaker 17: don't think the league knew what was on them, but 1648 01:16:47,280 --> 01:16:50,080 Speaker 17: they didn't want whatever was on them being found out 1649 01:16:50,120 --> 01:16:53,080 Speaker 17: by the PA. But I do think though that even 1650 01:16:53,080 --> 01:16:55,080 Speaker 17: if there were some who had a pushback because of that, 1651 01:16:56,040 --> 01:16:58,120 Speaker 17: I don't and I don't know if we'll ever know 1652 01:16:58,200 --> 01:17:01,120 Speaker 17: how many votes Belichick really got. I saw one report 1653 01:17:01,160 --> 01:17:02,800 Speaker 17: he got thirty nine. Then someone told me the other 1654 01:17:02,880 --> 01:17:05,040 Speaker 17: day they saw supposed to report that he only got 1655 01:17:05,080 --> 01:17:08,160 Speaker 17: thirteen votes. I can't believe that that's the case. I 1656 01:17:08,280 --> 01:17:11,120 Speaker 17: do believe, and I know I don't have anything, no 1657 01:17:11,280 --> 01:17:13,439 Speaker 17: proof of it, that if it was up or down, 1658 01:17:13,800 --> 01:17:17,240 Speaker 17: that those who had a concern about it would have 1659 01:17:17,320 --> 01:17:19,519 Speaker 17: voted for him. And one of the reasons being, and 1660 01:17:19,800 --> 01:17:22,360 Speaker 17: maybe we shouldn't some voters do this. One voter came 1661 01:17:22,400 --> 01:17:24,920 Speaker 17: out and said, I was like kind of on the 1662 01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:27,360 Speaker 17: fence with Belichick because of some of the stuff, but 1663 01:17:27,479 --> 01:17:30,479 Speaker 17: I voted for him because just so he would be elected. 1664 01:17:30,720 --> 01:17:33,120 Speaker 17: And then that opens the door for more coaches. You know, 1665 01:17:33,360 --> 01:17:37,280 Speaker 17: last year, Mike Holmgren was a coach finalist and obviously 1666 01:17:37,400 --> 01:17:40,200 Speaker 17: didn't get the forty votes. So he's still waiting, along 1667 01:17:40,240 --> 01:17:42,360 Speaker 17: with Mike Shanahan and along with Tom coffin. 1668 01:17:42,439 --> 01:17:45,719 Speaker 7: Idea, no one can get in over Belichick, right. 1669 01:17:45,920 --> 01:17:49,320 Speaker 17: Right for everybody behind it, No, no, exactly, and you 1670 01:17:49,400 --> 01:17:51,960 Speaker 17: only have one person there's you know, that's the thing. 1671 01:17:52,080 --> 01:17:54,160 Speaker 17: And there were some who wondered, quite honestly, and I 1672 01:17:54,200 --> 01:17:56,439 Speaker 17: don't know how much this affected the vote. This is 1673 01:17:56,439 --> 01:18:00,240 Speaker 17: a Hall of Fame decision. Little background here. Back in 1674 01:18:00,280 --> 01:18:04,240 Speaker 17: the early two thousands, when after Bill after Bill Parcells 1675 01:18:04,360 --> 01:18:08,479 Speaker 17: left the Jets, he became eligible because there was a 1676 01:18:08,520 --> 01:18:10,800 Speaker 17: one year waiting period for coaches back then as. 1677 01:18:10,720 --> 01:18:11,240 Speaker 7: There is now. 1678 01:18:11,439 --> 01:18:13,479 Speaker 17: But that was just changed too, and no one knows 1679 01:18:13,560 --> 01:18:17,280 Speaker 17: why it was one year, And so Parcells told his 1680 01:18:17,439 --> 01:18:20,559 Speaker 17: presenter and he made it to the finals, told his presenter, 1681 01:18:20,560 --> 01:18:22,040 Speaker 17: I'm not coming back. Don't worry about I'm not going 1682 01:18:22,080 --> 01:18:24,680 Speaker 17: to coach again. Well, the committee didn't believe him, right, 1683 01:18:24,720 --> 01:18:26,400 Speaker 17: and they didn't vote him in that year or the 1684 01:18:26,479 --> 01:18:29,040 Speaker 17: next year, and then guess what the following year he 1685 01:18:29,040 --> 01:18:32,000 Speaker 17: went but he coached the Cowboys. But the Hall of 1686 01:18:32,040 --> 01:18:36,800 Speaker 17: Fame reacted and also made the coach waiting period five years, 1687 01:18:37,400 --> 01:18:40,080 Speaker 17: just like the players. Now, I on my level, I 1688 01:18:40,200 --> 01:18:43,200 Speaker 17: think that's probably too many. I understand you don't want 1689 01:18:43,240 --> 01:18:46,120 Speaker 17: a situation where a guy comes back at it sometimes 1690 01:18:46,360 --> 01:18:48,920 Speaker 17: old and they're older. Yeah, so don't make it five. 1691 01:18:49,040 --> 01:18:51,960 Speaker 17: Maybe compromise and make it three. But they then all 1692 01:18:51,960 --> 01:18:54,200 Speaker 17: of a sudden last year, out of nowhere, they changed 1693 01:18:54,240 --> 01:18:57,880 Speaker 17: it to one again, and so some are saying, well, Belichick, 1694 01:18:57,880 --> 01:18:59,519 Speaker 17: if was just throwing it the way they did, he 1695 01:18:59,560 --> 01:19:03,439 Speaker 17: wouldn't even been eligible this year. So it's there's all 1696 01:19:03,520 --> 01:19:07,080 Speaker 17: those things surrounding it that raise a lot of questions. 1697 01:19:07,160 --> 01:19:09,080 Speaker 7: Given me a headache. I can't imagine what it gives you. 1698 01:19:09,280 --> 01:19:11,400 Speaker 1: Why do you think this year we found out so 1699 01:19:11,560 --> 01:19:12,920 Speaker 1: much information before? 1700 01:19:13,080 --> 01:19:16,880 Speaker 17: Well, that's that's a big question. Now, you know, I 1701 01:19:17,080 --> 01:19:19,600 Speaker 17: know that anybody who was told and let's you know, 1702 01:19:19,640 --> 01:19:25,320 Speaker 17: we voted three weeks ago, from yesterday, January thirteenth, and 1703 01:19:26,120 --> 01:19:28,320 Speaker 17: we didn't we it couldn't come from our committee. That's 1704 01:19:28,320 --> 01:19:31,559 Speaker 17: the one thing. Because we weren't even told the results. 1705 01:19:31,640 --> 01:19:34,040 Speaker 17: We don't know what the vote was, and we don't 1706 01:19:34,080 --> 01:19:37,160 Speaker 17: know who got in. Right. Well, they travel around the 1707 01:19:37,200 --> 01:19:39,080 Speaker 17: country and knock on, you know, the doors of the 1708 01:19:39,120 --> 01:19:42,519 Speaker 17: houses of people. There's camera people, there's other everyone has 1709 01:19:42,600 --> 01:19:43,639 Speaker 17: to sign an NDA. 1710 01:19:44,640 --> 01:19:44,760 Speaker 7: Right. 1711 01:19:45,120 --> 01:19:49,000 Speaker 17: Well, but here's the thing. The Hall of Fame contacts 1712 01:19:50,160 --> 01:19:53,280 Speaker 17: all of the guys who didn't get in and tells 1713 01:19:53,320 --> 01:19:55,920 Speaker 17: them in advance. I think in the ESPN story, which 1714 01:19:56,240 --> 01:19:58,120 Speaker 17: was it seems like so long ago now it was 1715 01:19:58,240 --> 01:20:00,720 Speaker 17: last week, right, I think they said that had been 1716 01:20:00,760 --> 01:20:02,320 Speaker 17: told the previous friday. 1717 01:20:03,360 --> 01:20:04,160 Speaker 7: Did he leak it? 1718 01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:07,080 Speaker 17: Did he tell people that, hey, I didn't get in, 1719 01:20:07,640 --> 01:20:10,080 Speaker 17: and then those people told somebody else, and all of 1720 01:20:10,120 --> 01:20:13,280 Speaker 17: a sudden ESPN has the story, and then all of 1721 01:20:13,280 --> 01:20:15,400 Speaker 17: a sudden they have the Craft story, you know, a 1722 01:20:15,520 --> 01:20:18,720 Speaker 17: week later that he didn't get in either. So the 1723 01:20:19,240 --> 01:20:22,920 Speaker 17: Hall is very concerned with that and the leaks. They 1724 01:20:22,920 --> 01:20:27,560 Speaker 17: were also very concerned. I'll tell you this about some 1725 01:20:27,680 --> 01:20:32,720 Speaker 17: of the things that selectors anonymously told not you know, 1726 01:20:32,920 --> 01:20:35,080 Speaker 17: well off, not off the record, but without a name 1727 01:20:35,080 --> 01:20:38,920 Speaker 17: attachment told the ESPN writers things that were said in 1728 01:20:39,000 --> 01:20:41,920 Speaker 17: the room, including the one that was claimed that Bill 1729 01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:44,720 Speaker 17: what Bill Pollion said, which he didn't say, the one 1730 01:20:44,720 --> 01:20:46,599 Speaker 17: about well he should wait a year that was never 1731 01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:50,240 Speaker 17: said during the meeting, and so they're very concerned about that. 1732 01:20:51,120 --> 01:20:54,600 Speaker 17: But they like to find out who because we're not 1733 01:20:54,680 --> 01:20:57,600 Speaker 17: supposed we can talk about general things, but certainly not 1734 01:20:57,680 --> 01:21:00,439 Speaker 17: in advance, but we can talk about general things that 1735 01:21:00,479 --> 01:21:04,639 Speaker 17: were discussed, but not specific things that somebody said, even 1736 01:21:04,680 --> 01:21:07,519 Speaker 17: if you don't say the name of the person. And 1737 01:21:07,640 --> 01:21:09,519 Speaker 17: so they're concerned about that. But how they gonna be 1738 01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:11,559 Speaker 17: able to find out, I mean, that's. 1739 01:21:12,640 --> 01:21:14,760 Speaker 7: Before you go. I know we talked about Hall of Fame, 1740 01:21:14,800 --> 01:21:16,439 Speaker 7: but give us your take in the game. 1741 01:21:16,760 --> 01:21:17,439 Speaker 10: What are you thinking? 1742 01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:21,559 Speaker 17: You know, I think that I think on paper, at least, 1743 01:21:21,600 --> 01:21:24,320 Speaker 17: I think Seattle is the better team, but we all 1744 01:21:24,400 --> 01:21:28,160 Speaker 17: know that doesn't matter a lot of times. And it's 1745 01:21:28,200 --> 01:21:31,600 Speaker 17: a very intriguing matchup because, I mean, everyone knew how 1746 01:21:31,640 --> 01:21:34,760 Speaker 17: great Seattle's defense was all year, but I think there 1747 01:21:34,840 --> 01:21:37,280 Speaker 17: was so much chatter about the Patriots and Drake May 1748 01:21:37,400 --> 01:21:39,519 Speaker 17: and all that that no one was paying attention and 1749 01:21:39,640 --> 01:21:43,000 Speaker 17: talking about, oh, they didn't play anybody. The schedules, you know, 1750 01:21:43,320 --> 01:21:46,200 Speaker 17: strength the schedule is very low, and I don't know 1751 01:21:46,280 --> 01:21:48,719 Speaker 17: that anybody was paying as much attention to that defense. 1752 01:21:49,040 --> 01:21:52,200 Speaker 17: Now in the playoffs they certainly have, So that makes 1753 01:21:52,280 --> 01:21:56,320 Speaker 17: it very intriguing. Does that make Sam Darnold not play 1754 01:21:56,400 --> 01:21:59,040 Speaker 17: to the level that he's been playing. I think the 1755 01:21:59,120 --> 01:22:02,080 Speaker 17: wild card in all which I believe is the difference 1756 01:22:02,160 --> 01:22:04,599 Speaker 17: in that game against the Broncos, is Drake may run 1757 01:22:04,680 --> 01:22:09,160 Speaker 17: in the football. The question becomes, now, though, does he 1758 01:22:09,280 --> 01:22:13,439 Speaker 17: take those opportunities to run knowing that he's got you 1759 01:22:13,520 --> 01:22:16,719 Speaker 17: know that there might be a re injury to the shoulder, 1760 01:22:19,280 --> 01:22:21,720 Speaker 17: Well that that's true, But if he gets hurt and 1761 01:22:21,800 --> 01:22:24,960 Speaker 17: all of a sudden he can't continue, then that's yeah, 1762 01:22:25,160 --> 01:22:27,639 Speaker 17: a one hundred percent right on that aspect. Obviously, it's 1763 01:22:27,680 --> 01:22:30,719 Speaker 17: the fourth quarter and it's a huge play. You're gonna 1764 01:22:30,720 --> 01:22:33,080 Speaker 17: take your shot. But in the first or second quarter, 1765 01:22:33,280 --> 01:22:35,479 Speaker 17: you know, maybe well maybe I don't know if I 1766 01:22:35,479 --> 01:22:37,360 Speaker 17: should take the chance here, or you go down a 1767 01:22:37,400 --> 01:22:39,439 Speaker 17: little bit early and maybe the play doesn't become as 1768 01:22:39,680 --> 01:22:41,320 Speaker 17: as big as it might have been. So I think 1769 01:22:41,360 --> 01:22:43,320 Speaker 17: that's a big wild card in the game. 1770 01:22:43,439 --> 01:22:45,479 Speaker 7: I agree, his legs could be a huge factor in 1771 01:22:45,560 --> 01:22:46,600 Speaker 7: this game, but. 1772 01:22:46,680 --> 01:22:49,120 Speaker 17: It's it's, like I said, it's a very intriguing matchup. 1773 01:22:49,520 --> 01:22:51,160 Speaker 17: And just because I. 1774 01:22:51,240 --> 01:22:54,280 Speaker 6: Think at McDonald, because you know, like he was to me, 1775 01:22:55,080 --> 01:22:57,360 Speaker 6: he flew a little under the radars to everyone was 1776 01:22:57,400 --> 01:23:02,440 Speaker 6: talking about, you know, Ben Johnson and Cohen in Jacksonville, 1777 01:23:02,960 --> 01:23:04,880 Speaker 6: and then all of a sudden, here come the Seahawks 1778 01:23:04,960 --> 01:23:09,280 Speaker 6: with this first year coach, second year coach, but young guy, 1779 01:23:09,400 --> 01:23:12,560 Speaker 6: and you know everybody is, oh, now, he might be 1780 01:23:12,760 --> 01:23:16,680 Speaker 6: MVP coach candidate, Like what is it about him that 1781 01:23:16,800 --> 01:23:17,720 Speaker 6: makes him a good coach? 1782 01:23:17,920 --> 01:23:20,439 Speaker 17: It's a great question. And I think that part of 1783 01:23:21,120 --> 01:23:23,599 Speaker 17: no one was paying attention is that last year, everyone 1784 01:23:23,680 --> 01:23:26,880 Speaker 17: forgets they tied for first place in the division with 1785 01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:29,439 Speaker 17: the Rams. They were ten and seven in his first year. 1786 01:23:29,800 --> 01:23:32,519 Speaker 17: But he also took over a program that was already 1787 01:23:32,560 --> 01:23:33,040 Speaker 17: pretty good. 1788 01:23:33,200 --> 01:23:33,680 Speaker 7: Yeah right. 1789 01:23:33,880 --> 01:23:35,680 Speaker 17: He wasn't taken over a team that was four and 1790 01:23:35,800 --> 01:23:38,800 Speaker 17: thirteen or anything like that. The year before, I'm pretty 1791 01:23:38,800 --> 01:23:40,639 Speaker 17: sure they were either nine and eight or eight and nine. 1792 01:23:41,000 --> 01:23:42,720 Speaker 17: I think it was nine and eight, and so he 1793 01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:45,400 Speaker 17: was already taken over a team that was in a 1794 01:23:45,439 --> 01:23:49,320 Speaker 17: good place with one of the better talent evaluators and 1795 01:23:49,360 --> 01:23:51,840 Speaker 17: general managers in the league in John Schneider. And so 1796 01:23:52,160 --> 01:23:54,559 Speaker 17: last year they did what they did. Then this year 1797 01:23:54,600 --> 01:23:57,400 Speaker 17: they're still flying a little bit under the radar because 1798 01:23:57,720 --> 01:24:00,320 Speaker 17: they weren't in the postseason. And then they just go 1799 01:24:00,439 --> 01:24:02,880 Speaker 17: out and they just you know, have that defense, and 1800 01:24:03,000 --> 01:24:07,200 Speaker 17: they made some key moves with you know, signing DeMarcus Lawrence, 1801 01:24:07,400 --> 01:24:11,559 Speaker 17: you know, Sam Darnold, and everyone was wondering, how how 1802 01:24:11,680 --> 01:24:13,320 Speaker 17: is he going to play? Was last year of Fluke. 1803 01:24:13,360 --> 01:24:14,920 Speaker 17: He didn't play well at the end of the season 1804 01:24:15,320 --> 01:24:17,200 Speaker 17: in a key regular season game and then in the 1805 01:24:17,240 --> 01:24:21,560 Speaker 17: playoff game. So but McDonald he came from. You know, 1806 01:24:22,240 --> 01:24:24,920 Speaker 17: the interesting thing that I found as I was looking 1807 01:24:25,000 --> 01:24:28,080 Speaker 17: up him because well I probably didn't tell you guys this, 1808 01:24:28,200 --> 01:24:30,960 Speaker 17: but you know I do Lindy's Pro Football magazine. Yeah, 1809 01:24:30,960 --> 01:24:33,320 Speaker 17: I've been doing that for over thirty years. And he's 1810 01:24:33,400 --> 01:24:37,240 Speaker 17: publishing a magazine on the pay on the Seahawks if 1811 01:24:37,240 --> 01:24:39,080 Speaker 17: they win. Oh really, because he does a lot of 1812 01:24:39,120 --> 01:24:41,720 Speaker 17: these specials and they prepared in advance, so it goes 1813 01:24:41,760 --> 01:24:45,200 Speaker 17: to the printer Monday morning, right, and so they have 1814 01:24:45,320 --> 01:24:47,360 Speaker 17: to do stories and I had I did a story 1815 01:24:47,439 --> 01:24:49,280 Speaker 17: on it on Mike McDonald, and I had to write 1816 01:24:49,320 --> 01:24:51,880 Speaker 17: it as if they won, right right, because the game 1817 01:24:51,920 --> 01:24:54,559 Speaker 17: will if it and if no one will ever see 1818 01:24:54,600 --> 01:24:58,479 Speaker 17: the story. Well, the interesting thing was that from stuff 1819 01:24:58,560 --> 01:25:01,920 Speaker 17: that John Schneider had heard about Mike McDonald, he said, 1820 01:25:02,040 --> 01:25:04,040 Speaker 17: you're going to be impressed with this guy. You're going 1821 01:25:04,080 --> 01:25:07,439 Speaker 17: to be impressed with him. And so the story goes 1822 01:25:07,520 --> 01:25:10,760 Speaker 17: that he was he was the Ravens defensive coordinator, and 1823 01:25:10,880 --> 01:25:14,400 Speaker 17: that Schneider was praying that they would lose the AFC 1824 01:25:14,640 --> 01:25:18,000 Speaker 17: Championship game to the Chiefs, which that would have been 1825 01:25:18,600 --> 01:25:21,960 Speaker 17: twenty twenty three season, I guess, because yeah, twenty three season, 1826 01:25:22,640 --> 01:25:24,760 Speaker 17: and he was hoping they would lose so he'd be 1827 01:25:24,760 --> 01:25:26,960 Speaker 17: able to get right after him. And the game was 1828 01:25:27,000 --> 01:25:31,360 Speaker 17: played on January twenty eighth, and three days later, Schneider 1829 01:25:31,479 --> 01:25:35,360 Speaker 17: was hired, I mean, McDonald's hired by the Seahawks and 1830 01:25:35,439 --> 01:25:36,920 Speaker 17: then and then they've gone from there and. 1831 01:25:37,439 --> 01:25:41,400 Speaker 6: Oh, he's it's good to see the young coaches. Needs 1832 01:25:41,439 --> 01:25:43,040 Speaker 6: more good head coaches, that's for sure. 1833 01:25:43,280 --> 01:25:46,280 Speaker 17: And for the most part, everyone's hiring these young guys, 1834 01:25:46,680 --> 01:25:49,120 Speaker 17: you know, guys from the from the McVeigh tree, the. 1835 01:25:49,200 --> 01:25:52,559 Speaker 7: Tight pants guys. Yeah, so it's all right, Howard, it's 1836 01:25:52,600 --> 01:25:53,599 Speaker 7: so good to have you here. 1837 01:25:53,720 --> 01:25:54,160 Speaker 17: My pleasure. 1838 01:25:54,200 --> 01:25:56,240 Speaker 6: We appreciate you coming.

But I'm upset 1951 01:33:50,320 --> 01:33:52,280 Speaker 32: and how I'm here and I'm gonna be Redskins fans. 1952 01:33:52,280 --> 01:33:54,000 Speaker 32: I hear a lot of chat. I'm hearing you guys. 1953 01:33:54,080 --> 01:33:55,920 Speaker 32: I listen to you guys and watch all the shows. 1954 01:33:55,960 --> 01:33:57,960 Speaker 32: I can double dipping on both. 1955 01:33:57,800 --> 01:34:00,760 Speaker 28: Teams here, and I don't like what I'm hearing about. 1956 01:34:00,920 --> 01:34:03,320 Speaker 32: Brake may had a good regular season, but not a 1957 01:34:03,400 --> 01:34:06,800 Speaker 32: good postseason. Okay, well, look what he did against the 1958 01:34:07,200 --> 01:34:08,880 Speaker 32: best defense in the league. One up, and he threw 1959 01:34:08,920 --> 01:34:11,360 Speaker 32: three touchdown passes. What other quarterback did that? And in 1960 01:34:11,520 --> 01:34:14,120 Speaker 32: the snow, I can barely walk to my corner, so 1961 01:34:14,280 --> 01:34:16,800 Speaker 32: this guy's throwing passes. And then in Denver it was 1962 01:34:16,840 --> 01:34:18,479 Speaker 32: a month soon out there, and he did what his 1963 01:34:18,600 --> 01:34:21,040 Speaker 32: soups told him to do. But yet we walked at 1964 01:34:21,080 --> 01:34:23,439 Speaker 32: the same time, which I agree. The defense is good 1965 01:34:23,520 --> 01:34:24,640 Speaker 32: for the Patriots, but you. 1966 01:34:24,680 --> 01:34:26,880 Speaker 28: Guys would act like the defense is why they won 1967 01:34:27,000 --> 01:34:27,479 Speaker 28: the games. 1968 01:34:27,720 --> 01:34:31,400 Speaker 32: Well, the defense is playing bad quarterbacks. Okay, but Drake 1969 01:34:31,439 --> 01:34:33,560 Speaker 32: May doesn't get credit for beating bad quarterbacks. But the 1970 01:34:33,600 --> 01:34:35,479 Speaker 32: defense gets credit for beating bad quarterback. 1971 01:34:35,640 --> 01:34:37,800 Speaker 9: Drake he might win the MVP because he beat a 1972 01:34:37,840 --> 01:34:38,840 Speaker 9: lot of bad quarterbacks. 1973 01:34:39,600 --> 01:34:42,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you've heard many times. She didn't. She 1974 01:34:42,320 --> 01:34:45,080 Speaker 1: doesn't think it's particularly close. She thinks Drake May's the MVP. 1975 01:34:45,280 --> 01:34:48,840 Speaker 32: Well, they shouldn't be. At the point is he's getting criticized. 1976 01:34:48,320 --> 01:34:50,080 Speaker 28: Even by you guys. He doesn't have a good game. 1977 01:34:50,360 --> 01:34:52,800 Speaker 32: Goes didn't have a good game and throws three deep 1978 01:34:52,960 --> 01:34:54,639 Speaker 32: dimes against the Houston Texas. 1979 01:34:54,760 --> 01:34:55,680 Speaker 1: He threw one deep dove. 1980 01:34:56,120 --> 01:34:56,920 Speaker 32: That's a bad game. 1981 01:34:57,000 --> 01:35:00,200 Speaker 4: Then he's elite, so he didn't play well. 1982 01:35:02,080 --> 01:35:04,719 Speaker 1: When you turn the ball over, you only talked about 1983 01:35:04,720 --> 01:35:07,040 Speaker 1: the three touchdowns. You didn't talk about the three turnovers. 1984 01:35:08,640 --> 01:35:10,960 Speaker 1: That means he That means he didn't have a good game. 1985 01:35:12,439 --> 01:35:12,479 Speaker 8: No. 1986 01:35:13,040 --> 01:35:15,519 Speaker 32: Yes, the game is when you have mistakes without the 1987 01:35:15,560 --> 01:35:16,160 Speaker 32: good plays. 1988 01:35:16,360 --> 01:35:18,040 Speaker 1: No, that that would be. That would be having a 1989 01:35:18,160 --> 01:35:19,280 Speaker 1: terrible game. That would be c J. 1990 01:35:19,400 --> 01:35:23,479 Speaker 7: Stroud Listen, I I love your passion.

And 2100 01:40:05,439 --> 01:40:08,439 Speaker 12: so maybe she's just kind of reading between the lines 2101 01:40:08,760 --> 01:40:10,000 Speaker 12: or playing matchmaker a little bit. 2102 01:40:10,080 --> 01:40:11,320 Speaker 4: I like it reporting on that. 2103 01:40:11,520 --> 01:40:15,280 Speaker 7: But yeah, uh, Ben writes, and he's in woods hole. 2104 01:40:15,800 --> 01:40:17,320 Speaker 7: That's down by my neck of the woods. 2105 01:40:18,880 --> 01:40:22,920 Speaker 6: As a video production professional, the Duncan cups on the table. 2106 01:40:22,720 --> 01:40:25,960 Speaker 7: Are really stressing me out.

Question. 2109 01:40:34,600 --> 01:40:37,719 Speaker 6: How much of the Patriots defensive performances in the playoffs 2110 01:40:38,160 --> 01:40:41,439 Speaker 6: have been because of the defense's dominance versus the opposing 2111 01:40:41,520 --> 01:40:42,880 Speaker 6: quarterbacks incompetence. 2112 01:40:43,040 --> 01:40:46,320 Speaker 9: So I thought when Mina brought that up, you know, 2113 01:40:47,000 --> 01:40:50,719 Speaker 9: she thought, maybe the Patriots offense is being underrated based 2114 01:40:50,760 --> 01:40:53,479 Speaker 9: on their performance. Isn't bad weather in the Patriots defense 2115 01:40:53,680 --> 01:40:55,040 Speaker 9: is being overrated. 2116 01:40:54,560 --> 01:40:55,040 Speaker 7: A little bit. 2117 01:40:55,520 --> 01:40:58,040 Speaker 1: No one's really mentioned the weather for the Patriots defense. 2118 01:40:58,120 --> 01:41:01,080 Speaker 9: Yeah, like you might hear like how bad the quarterback 2119 01:41:01,120 --> 01:41:04,080 Speaker 9: play was, you know, but you're not hearing like, well, 2120 01:41:04,120 --> 01:41:06,920 Speaker 9: the weather contributed to that it was the Patriot's defense 2121 01:41:06,960 --> 01:41:10,439 Speaker 9: dominated c J. Stroud, not the weather hurt CJ. Stroud, 2122 01:41:10,560 --> 01:41:12,760 Speaker 9: and then he got spugged by the defense, do you 2123 01:41:12,800 --> 01:41:15,040 Speaker 9: know what I mean? Yeah, Yeah, I do think there's 2124 01:41:15,080 --> 01:41:17,679 Speaker 9: probably an element of truth to what Mina said about 2125 01:41:18,760 --> 01:41:20,680 Speaker 9: one's probably not quite as good as you think and 2126 01:41:20,760 --> 01:41:22,080 Speaker 9: the other is probably better than you think. 2127 01:41:22,280 --> 01:41:23,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think there's definitely truth to that. 2128 01:41:23,960 --> 01:41:26,599 Speaker 12: I'm actually have been working on something this week about, 2129 01:41:27,040 --> 01:41:30,280 Speaker 12: you know, the players, the Patriots players, whether it's just 2130 01:41:30,479 --> 01:41:34,360 Speaker 12: kind of extra motivation to already being motivated or whatever inspired. 2131 01:41:34,560 --> 01:41:38,960 Speaker 12: Sorry inspired, We don't motivate, we inspire here. But regardless, 2132 01:41:39,880 --> 01:41:42,800 Speaker 12: they have clearly heard on the defensive side of the ball, 2133 01:41:43,560 --> 01:41:46,519 Speaker 12: the lack of hype for themselves, you know, like they 2134 01:41:46,760 --> 01:41:50,400 Speaker 12: have clearly used that as motivation every week. It's the 2135 01:41:50,479 --> 01:41:53,599 Speaker 12: Texans defense, it's the Broncos defense is the best defense 2136 01:41:53,640 --> 01:41:56,200 Speaker 12: in the game. Now the Seahawks defense is the best defense. 2137 01:41:56,360 --> 01:41:59,360 Speaker 12: Or they're playing with a backup quarterback, or CJ. Stroud 2138 01:41:59,439 --> 01:42:02,720 Speaker 12: stinks or whatever all these other excuses are. And I 2139 01:42:02,800 --> 01:42:05,960 Speaker 12: guess whatever motivates you right when, whatever, whatever works. 2140 01:42:06,080 --> 01:42:10,880 Speaker 4: But every guy that I talked to was pretty clear that. Yeah, 2141 01:42:11,000 --> 01:42:12,639 Speaker 4: like we hear it and we we are. 2142 01:42:12,720 --> 01:42:14,599 Speaker 1: Using I was in on Milton Williams the other night 2143 01:42:14,680 --> 01:42:16,720 Speaker 1: at Opening Night. Yeah, he was definitely he. 2144 01:42:16,760 --> 01:42:19,439 Speaker 4: Seems to lead. Yeah, he definitely does. 2145 01:42:19,600 --> 01:42:21,760 Speaker 12: But even the guy like Christian Ellis, who is like 2146 01:42:21,840 --> 01:42:24,280 Speaker 12: the nicest guy and like very unassuming in terms of 2147 01:42:24,320 --> 01:42:27,680 Speaker 12: these types of things, even he was like saying, yet 2148 01:42:27,720 --> 01:42:30,840 Speaker 12: one hundred percent, you know that this guy is uh, 2149 01:42:31,120 --> 01:42:33,120 Speaker 12: you know, this is in our heads sort of thing 2150 01:42:33,160 --> 01:42:33,599 Speaker 12: in a good way. 2151 01:42:33,640 --> 01:42:35,000 Speaker 4: You know, they're using it as motivation. 2152 01:42:35,120 --> 01:42:37,559 Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I do think that he does well 2153 01:42:37,600 --> 01:42:39,760 Speaker 9: with that. You know, some guys it's so foolished and fake. 2154 01:42:39,840 --> 01:42:42,679 Speaker 9: But Milton Williams just like, no, yeah, yeah, no, don't 2155 01:42:42,720 --> 01:42:44,920 Speaker 9: they don't. They don't think they're any good. Yeah, he's 2156 01:42:44,920 --> 01:42:45,559 Speaker 9: a serious da. 2157 01:42:45,560 --> 01:42:47,200 Speaker 1: He does, Yeah, he does. He does well with that. 2158 01:42:47,800 --> 01:42:49,200 Speaker 1: You know, we don't get the respect him. 2159 01:42:49,520 --> 01:42:51,640 Speaker 12: He said that they're gonna find another reason if they 2160 01:42:51,680 --> 01:42:53,519 Speaker 12: beat Seattle. It will be something else, you know, you 2161 01:42:53,560 --> 01:42:55,600 Speaker 12: know Darnold played terribly or you know, it will be 2162 01:42:55,640 --> 01:42:57,000 Speaker 12: another reason why. 2163 01:42:57,120 --> 01:42:59,439 Speaker 4: And not giving the Patriots defense any. 2164 01:42:59,320 --> 01:42:59,640 Speaker 7: Will I got. 2165 01:42:59,680 --> 01:43:01,920 Speaker 8: I got a question, is is there any chance that 2166 01:43:02,000 --> 01:43:04,360 Speaker 8: the Seattle defense is a little overrated. 2167 01:43:04,800 --> 01:43:09,639 Speaker 6: No, no, politely no, yeah, I mean when you think about, 2168 01:43:10,280 --> 01:43:12,320 Speaker 6: you know, the length of the season, the team you 2169 01:43:12,400 --> 01:43:16,560 Speaker 6: know coming through the NFC, I think, you know, just 2170 01:43:16,640 --> 01:43:19,840 Speaker 6: like I would be defensive if the Patriots, you know, 2171 01:43:19,960 --> 01:43:22,519 Speaker 6: someone asked about that. No, I don't think they're underrated. 2172 01:43:22,560 --> 01:43:25,760 Speaker 6: I think that I think they've earned the rating that 2173 01:43:25,880 --> 01:43:26,160 Speaker 6: they have. 2174 01:43:26,880 --> 01:43:28,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think it depends on what you think. 2175 01:43:29,080 --> 01:43:32,640 Speaker 9: But to go whatever it is, nineteen games and give 2176 01:43:32,760 --> 01:43:36,880 Speaker 9: up thirty points twice, like, that's pretty good. 2177 01:43:37,439 --> 01:43:38,040 Speaker 1: That's pretty good. 2178 01:43:38,040 --> 01:43:40,559 Speaker 9: And that's you know, in the NFC West, where you're 2179 01:43:40,560 --> 01:43:43,599 Speaker 9: playing some better teams on a consistent basis. I've seen 2180 01:43:44,280 --> 01:43:48,200 Speaker 9: Evans Idle find a way to light up team after 2181 01:43:48,280 --> 01:43:50,800 Speaker 9: team after team, and he shut them down twice, the 2182 01:43:50,920 --> 01:43:53,919 Speaker 9: Niners late in the season with with all the marbles, 2183 01:43:54,280 --> 01:43:56,200 Speaker 9: one for the number one seed and one in the 2184 01:43:56,280 --> 01:43:58,960 Speaker 9: actual playoffs, and they couldn't move the ball an inch. 2185 01:43:59,600 --> 01:44:02,160 Speaker 9: So I would tend to think, no, they're not overrated. 2186 01:44:02,240 --> 01:44:05,439 Speaker 9: But any defense can be beaten. Any defense can beat 2187 01:44:05,439 --> 01:44:05,640 Speaker 9: And that. 2188 01:44:05,680 --> 01:44:07,720 Speaker 8: Goes back to my thing of there's only a few 2189 01:44:07,800 --> 01:44:11,360 Speaker 8: defenses that are truly special, and otherwise you can have 2190 01:44:11,400 --> 01:44:13,439 Speaker 8: a defense that's good enough to win the Super Bowl, 2191 01:44:13,479 --> 01:44:15,840 Speaker 8: and I guess that's just I haven't heard one single 2192 01:44:15,880 --> 01:44:17,080 Speaker 8: person asked that question this week. 2193 01:44:17,160 --> 01:44:19,000 Speaker 7: Everybody is in you know, maybe it is deserved. 2194 01:44:19,040 --> 01:44:21,519 Speaker 8: I just don't wanted to pose it because sometimes when 2195 01:44:21,520 --> 01:44:23,840 Speaker 8: it's just over and over and you just get built up, 2196 01:44:23,880 --> 01:44:25,240 Speaker 8: like you can't even move the ball on them. 2197 01:44:25,760 --> 01:44:27,599 Speaker 7: I don't know, we'll see the Super Bowls anywhere. 2198 01:44:27,840 --> 01:44:30,040 Speaker 12: I hear what you're saying. I don't know, you can't 2199 01:44:30,080 --> 01:44:31,680 Speaker 12: move the ball on them, like they're the eighty five. 2200 01:44:31,720 --> 01:44:34,960 Speaker 12: Theres is obviously exaggerating, which we tend to do. But 2201 01:44:35,520 --> 01:44:38,479 Speaker 12: I think with them, it's it's between them and Houston 2202 01:44:38,479 --> 01:44:40,280 Speaker 12: as the two best defenses in the league. And I 2203 01:44:40,320 --> 01:44:42,600 Speaker 12: think Houston has a little bit better talent, but I 2204 01:44:42,640 --> 01:44:44,479 Speaker 12: think the Seattle scheme is better than Houston. 2205 01:44:44,640 --> 01:44:46,400 Speaker 9: What I watched in Houston's like, you can't move the 2206 01:44:46,439 --> 01:44:48,120 Speaker 9: ball on them. Yeah, like that's what I saw on 2207 01:44:48,200 --> 01:44:50,080 Speaker 9: that day. Now I know that they had you know, 2208 01:44:50,200 --> 01:44:53,040 Speaker 9: the plays, but you could they couldn't move the ball. Yeah, 2209 01:44:53,320 --> 01:44:55,760 Speaker 9: they had like one good drive in the game. Yeah, 2210 01:44:56,800 --> 01:44:57,880 Speaker 9: they had a lot of drives. 2211 01:44:58,360 --> 01:45:01,240 Speaker 12: I think this Seattle defense, like I said, you know, 2212 01:45:01,280 --> 01:45:04,000 Speaker 12: they don't have a will Anderson. You know, I don't 2213 01:45:04,000 --> 01:45:06,240 Speaker 12: think that Witherspoon's a really good player, is he? Derek 2214 01:45:06,240 --> 01:45:06,920 Speaker 12: Stingley Junior? 2215 01:45:07,040 --> 01:45:11,440 Speaker 4: Probably not. But they have a terrific. 2216 01:45:11,280 --> 01:45:14,360 Speaker 12: Defensive scheme and a play caller that kind of knows 2217 01:45:14,479 --> 01:45:17,559 Speaker 12: when to push the right buttons, and they have droves 2218 01:45:17,640 --> 01:45:18,919 Speaker 12: of depth on defense. 2219 01:45:19,000 --> 01:45:19,840 Speaker 7: You know, that's the thing. 2220 01:45:19,920 --> 01:45:20,040 Speaker 24: You know. 2221 01:45:20,200 --> 01:45:23,320 Speaker 6: Like, admittedly, and I said this before on a previous show, 2222 01:45:24,000 --> 01:45:26,080 Speaker 6: I didn't really pay a lot of attention to the 2223 01:45:26,120 --> 01:45:29,120 Speaker 6: Seahawks as the season progressed, But then, you know, toward 2224 01:45:29,160 --> 01:45:30,880 Speaker 6: the end of the season, I started watching them and 2225 01:45:31,320 --> 01:45:35,040 Speaker 6: just my eyeball, like they're about their my eyeball tests 2226 01:45:35,080 --> 01:45:35,879 Speaker 6: about their defense. 2227 01:45:36,360 --> 01:45:38,280 Speaker 4: I was like, Wow, these guys are good. Yeah, Like 2228 01:45:38,400 --> 01:45:39,320 Speaker 4: they fly all. 2229 01:45:39,200 --> 01:45:42,000 Speaker 6: Over the place, they're good tacklers, they don't make a 2230 01:45:42,040 --> 01:45:45,200 Speaker 6: lot of mistakes. Yeah, you know when they do, they 2231 01:45:45,240 --> 01:45:49,760 Speaker 6: can recover like they look like a good defense. Yeah, 2232 01:45:49,880 --> 01:45:52,519 Speaker 6: they're no fluke. Yeah, there's nothing fluky about them. 2233 01:45:52,760 --> 01:45:55,040 Speaker 12: I think that one of the biggest compliments that you 2234 01:45:55,080 --> 01:45:58,599 Speaker 12: can have schematically is when you start seeing teams borrow 2235 01:45:59,720 --> 01:46:01,360 Speaker 12: play that other teams are running. 2236 01:46:01,400 --> 01:46:02,360 Speaker 4: You know, who started to. 2237 01:46:02,479 --> 01:46:06,920 Speaker 12: Stretch stuff down and McDonald I think is probably the 2238 01:46:07,040 --> 01:46:10,960 Speaker 12: best blitzer in terms of designing blitzes in the NFL, 2239 01:46:11,520 --> 01:46:14,280 Speaker 12: and him and Jesse Minter, you know, have kind of 2240 01:46:14,800 --> 01:46:17,360 Speaker 12: have this little tree going now that's you know, stems 2241 01:46:17,400 --> 01:46:19,160 Speaker 12: from Wing Martindale and some of the things that Wing 2242 01:46:19,240 --> 01:46:22,160 Speaker 12: Martindale used to do as well. But like that that 2243 01:46:22,800 --> 01:46:25,840 Speaker 12: play calling tree is now like the envy of the 2244 01:46:25,920 --> 01:46:28,280 Speaker 12: league on defense, just like the Shanahan tree is the 2245 01:46:28,400 --> 01:46:31,240 Speaker 12: envy of the league on offense. Like everybody is putting 2246 01:46:31,320 --> 01:46:35,840 Speaker 12: in Seattle blitzes into their into their defense because of 2247 01:46:35,960 --> 01:46:38,400 Speaker 12: how good they are. So that's the type of stuff 2248 01:46:38,400 --> 01:46:40,160 Speaker 12: that you hear about with McDonald. But I think the 2249 01:46:40,240 --> 01:46:43,840 Speaker 12: interesting thing about him, you're asking Howard about him, he's 2250 01:46:44,120 --> 01:46:48,559 Speaker 12: very uh different from Rabel. Like he's not a very 2251 01:46:48,720 --> 01:46:53,360 Speaker 12: energetic guy. He's not like a very demonstrative personality. He 2252 01:46:53,640 --> 01:46:56,920 Speaker 12: is like a true Jim Rat, Like he just is 2253 01:46:57,240 --> 01:47:02,280 Speaker 12: all ball. He's very like straight faced and like expressionless, 2254 01:47:02,400 --> 01:47:05,479 Speaker 12: and you know, very different. Even just seeing them. 2255 01:47:05,479 --> 01:47:08,120 Speaker 4: Up there on opening night, Like the contrast. 2256 01:47:07,680 --> 01:47:10,320 Speaker 12: Of like Rabel's energy that we're so used to seeing 2257 01:47:10,439 --> 01:47:14,919 Speaker 12: now and McDonald's kind of just you know, stoicness. It's 2258 01:47:14,960 --> 01:47:18,360 Speaker 12: a very different type of approach. He's not a raw 2259 01:47:18,479 --> 01:47:20,400 Speaker 12: rack guy, like I don't think that he's going into 2260 01:47:20,439 --> 01:47:23,200 Speaker 12: the locker room and rallying the troops in the same sense, 2261 01:47:23,320 --> 01:47:25,760 Speaker 12: but they trust him because of how good of a 2262 01:47:25,840 --> 01:47:26,280 Speaker 12: coach he is. 2263 01:47:26,400 --> 01:47:28,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, so I think Seattle has earned the praise that 2264 01:47:28,720 --> 01:47:32,280 Speaker 6: they're getting a defense and they are, you know, one 2265 01:47:32,320 --> 01:47:35,639 Speaker 6: of the best defense in the league. I think Milton Williams, 2266 01:47:35,680 --> 01:47:37,720 Speaker 6: on the other hand, maybe he's got a case that 2267 01:47:37,800 --> 01:47:41,160 Speaker 6: the Patriots are being a little bit underrated because I 2268 01:47:41,200 --> 01:47:43,360 Speaker 6: look at the Patriots and I think, you know what 2269 01:47:43,520 --> 01:47:46,400 Speaker 6: happened when Milton Williams and Spallaine were out and it 2270 01:47:46,560 --> 01:47:49,639 Speaker 6: made a difference. When they came back, it made a difference, 2271 01:47:50,400 --> 01:47:52,840 Speaker 6: which tells me they're a good defense, but they're not 2272 01:47:53,080 --> 01:47:54,479 Speaker 6: maybe not quite as deep. 2273 01:47:55,640 --> 01:47:58,080 Speaker 9: I would agree that I think that people have overlooked 2274 01:47:58,120 --> 01:48:01,280 Speaker 9: the Patriots defense, and I would put my in that category. 2275 01:48:01,800 --> 01:48:04,479 Speaker 9: I wasn't anticipating the kind of performance that we've seen 2276 01:48:04,520 --> 01:48:05,640 Speaker 9: in the postseason. 2277 01:48:05,240 --> 01:48:06,479 Speaker 1: From that side of the ball. 2278 01:48:06,960 --> 01:48:10,439 Speaker 9: I do, would absolutely do think that the weather and 2279 01:48:10,840 --> 01:48:13,080 Speaker 9: the opponents had something to do with it, but I 2280 01:48:13,120 --> 01:48:15,559 Speaker 9: wouldn't have said that they'd be able to shut down 2281 01:48:16,320 --> 01:48:17,200 Speaker 9: three straight teams. 2282 01:48:17,240 --> 01:48:19,320 Speaker 1: The way that they shut down all three of these teams. 2283 01:48:19,360 --> 01:48:20,719 Speaker 1: I wouldn't have thought that that was possible. 2284 01:48:20,760 --> 01:48:22,640 Speaker 6: That run defense that we saw in the beginning of 2285 01:48:22,680 --> 01:48:24,479 Speaker 6: the season that kind of had a little bit of 2286 01:48:24,560 --> 01:48:26,600 Speaker 6: a letdown and then and picked it up. 2287 01:48:26,720 --> 01:48:29,760 Speaker 4: It's for real. The Patriots run defense is for real. 2288 01:48:30,120 --> 01:48:32,600 Speaker 6: I mean, one thing I think, as Patriots fans you 2289 01:48:32,640 --> 01:48:35,240 Speaker 6: can count on for this game is they're going to 2290 01:48:35,280 --> 01:48:38,040 Speaker 6: be stout against the run, right you know, So that's 2291 01:48:38,400 --> 01:48:41,360 Speaker 6: that's something that's a chip in you know, a bird 2292 01:48:41,439 --> 01:48:43,519 Speaker 6: in the hand that you can count on in this game. 2293 01:48:43,600 --> 01:48:45,040 Speaker 7: Yeah, I wanted to ask Evan a little about that. 2294 01:48:45,080 --> 01:48:47,080 Speaker 8: As you mentioned, ev they run a lot of wide zone, 2295 01:48:47,120 --> 01:48:49,920 Speaker 8: and really I remember Bill coaching against the wide zone 2296 01:48:49,920 --> 01:48:51,640 Speaker 8: where they just kind of go along with him, and 2297 01:48:51,680 --> 01:48:54,840 Speaker 8: it seems like this defense you're just cutting gaps, you're 2298 01:48:54,840 --> 01:48:57,080 Speaker 8: trying to get through, You're not trying to like stay 2299 01:48:57,439 --> 01:48:59,240 Speaker 8: what parallel with the line of scrimmage. I think with 2300 01:48:59,479 --> 01:49:02,400 Speaker 8: you know, the kind of two gaping style, was you know, 2301 01:49:02,479 --> 01:49:04,320 Speaker 8: does that have the chance to make some plays in 2302 01:49:04,360 --> 01:49:06,120 Speaker 8: the backfield and maybe for some turnovers. 2303 01:49:06,200 --> 01:49:08,479 Speaker 12: I think one of the few times, and I'm sure 2304 01:49:08,520 --> 01:49:10,160 Speaker 12: there are other times when one of the few times 2305 01:49:10,200 --> 01:49:11,519 Speaker 12: where it publicly became a thing. 2306 01:49:12,360 --> 01:49:15,120 Speaker 4: In Super Bowl fifty three against the Rams. There's a 2307 01:49:15,200 --> 01:49:16,400 Speaker 4: clip on the sideline. 2308 01:49:16,520 --> 01:49:18,320 Speaker 12: I don't know if it's our clip or his NFL 2309 01:49:18,400 --> 01:49:21,400 Speaker 12: films or whatever, where Bill is talking to the defensive 2310 01:49:21,439 --> 01:49:24,719 Speaker 12: line and he's saying, get vertical, get vertical, get vertical, 2311 01:49:24,800 --> 01:49:29,360 Speaker 12: because the kryptonite to outside zone is interior penetration. So 2312 01:49:29,479 --> 01:49:32,160 Speaker 12: that's that they want to stretch it out. They want 2313 01:49:32,200 --> 01:49:34,320 Speaker 12: to get to the corner. So if you can just 2314 01:49:34,439 --> 01:49:36,519 Speaker 12: get right in the backfield. So that was the one 2315 01:49:36,640 --> 01:49:39,840 Speaker 12: game where they ran They ran, you know, an even front. 2316 01:49:39,880 --> 01:49:41,960 Speaker 12: They ran the six to one and they they threw 2317 01:49:42,000 --> 01:49:44,840 Speaker 12: out the two gaping and they shot gaps and they 2318 01:49:44,880 --> 01:49:45,719 Speaker 12: got up the field. 2319 01:49:46,320 --> 01:49:48,560 Speaker 4: So I fully expect the Patriots to want to do 2320 01:49:48,680 --> 01:49:49,160 Speaker 4: that again. 2321 01:49:49,760 --> 01:49:53,080 Speaker 12: And I actually went back and watched Brian Flores and 2322 01:49:53,200 --> 01:49:56,760 Speaker 12: the Vikings play this Seahawks offense a couple of weeks ago, 2323 01:49:57,439 --> 01:49:59,800 Speaker 12: and Brian Flores just ran the Super Bowl fifty three 2324 01:49:59,840 --> 01:50:02,320 Speaker 12: g plan against them. They played six to one, they 2325 01:50:02,400 --> 01:50:04,519 Speaker 12: played a too high safety shell. It was literally he 2326 01:50:04,640 --> 01:50:06,880 Speaker 12: just took the Super Bowl fifty three game plan and 2327 01:50:06,960 --> 01:50:08,040 Speaker 12: put it into this game. 2328 01:50:08,439 --> 01:50:10,840 Speaker 4: And that was one of Darnold's worst games statistically. 2329 01:50:10,960 --> 01:50:12,839 Speaker 1: They blitzed a lot in that game, if I recall. 2330 01:50:12,960 --> 01:50:14,840 Speaker 9: Yeah, and it was one of those games they they 2331 01:50:14,920 --> 01:50:18,920 Speaker 9: won handily, but it was because yeah, yeah, because Broswa 2332 01:50:18,960 --> 01:50:21,639 Speaker 9: played and he couldn't handle anything that Seattle was doing. 2333 01:50:21,720 --> 01:50:22,400 Speaker 1: They shut him out. 2334 01:50:22,680 --> 01:50:24,280 Speaker 9: Yeah, And they could have played that game for three 2335 01:50:24,320 --> 01:50:26,519 Speaker 9: weeks and the Vikings weren't going to score a point, 2336 01:50:26,960 --> 01:50:30,840 Speaker 9: but the Seahawks got the possession after possession after and 2337 01:50:30,920 --> 01:50:32,559 Speaker 9: they still couldn't score. 2338 01:50:32,600 --> 01:50:33,920 Speaker 1: They couldn't mount any drives. 2339 01:50:34,040 --> 01:50:35,600 Speaker 12: Yeah, it was a lot of you know, six to 2340 01:50:35,720 --> 01:50:38,800 Speaker 12: one fronts, and then the exotics on third down with 2341 01:50:39,120 --> 01:50:41,840 Speaker 12: the simulated pressures and things like that over like a 2342 01:50:41,920 --> 01:50:44,800 Speaker 12: sixty percent blitz rate on third down because they were 2343 01:50:44,800 --> 01:50:46,840 Speaker 12: stopping to run on first down and getting them into 2344 01:50:46,920 --> 01:50:48,600 Speaker 12: third and pass and so then you can start to 2345 01:50:48,640 --> 01:50:49,920 Speaker 12: cook up those pass rushes. 2346 01:50:50,240 --> 01:50:50,439 Speaker 7: Yeah. 2347 01:50:50,520 --> 01:50:53,360 Speaker 6: And you know, when it comes to these games, it's 2348 01:50:53,840 --> 01:50:56,639 Speaker 6: it's as much as when you do things as much 2349 01:50:56,680 --> 01:50:58,800 Speaker 6: as it is what you do. So you know, you're 2350 01:50:58,840 --> 01:51:03,120 Speaker 6: talking about those blitzer deserved shooting gaps instead of you know, uh, 2351 01:51:03,479 --> 01:51:06,840 Speaker 6: you know, playing man up and you know, just doing 2352 01:51:06,920 --> 01:51:09,120 Speaker 6: the zero technique or whatever you want to call it, 2353 01:51:10,080 --> 01:51:12,960 Speaker 6: it's when you do things, it's when you blitz. The 2354 01:51:13,080 --> 01:51:15,200 Speaker 6: timing of it that is so key. And that's why 2355 01:51:15,280 --> 01:51:18,920 Speaker 6: Seattle has been so good. It's they they seem to 2356 01:51:19,040 --> 01:51:20,519 Speaker 6: time up things really well. 2357 01:51:20,680 --> 01:51:23,360 Speaker 12: Yeah, in that ram Super Bowl, they they kept on 2358 01:51:23,520 --> 01:51:26,639 Speaker 12: showing all out pressure the Patriots did, but they only 2359 01:51:26,680 --> 01:51:29,400 Speaker 12: brought it one time and it was Stefan Gilmour's interception. 2360 01:51:29,760 --> 01:51:31,880 Speaker 4: It was the one time they actually brought the house. 2361 01:51:32,160 --> 01:51:34,200 Speaker 12: And they kept showing it and showing it and showing 2362 01:51:34,280 --> 01:51:36,559 Speaker 12: it and then falling out of it once the ball 2363 01:51:36,640 --> 01:51:38,559 Speaker 12: is snapped. And the one time they brought the house, 2364 01:51:39,120 --> 01:51:41,080 Speaker 12: they got a you know, a guy right in on 2365 01:51:41,320 --> 01:51:43,679 Speaker 12: golf and he threw up an arm punt to Stefan 2366 01:51:43,760 --> 01:51:45,560 Speaker 12: Gilmore and that was kind of the ball game. So 2367 01:51:46,360 --> 01:51:48,280 Speaker 12: they That could be a big part of it too, 2368 01:51:48,560 --> 01:51:51,040 Speaker 12: is you try to kind of lull them to sleep 2369 01:51:51,080 --> 01:51:52,960 Speaker 12: a little bit and then save it for the exact 2370 01:51:53,080 --> 01:51:54,599 Speaker 12: right moment and try to send the house. 2371 01:51:55,160 --> 01:51:57,720 Speaker 6: Chris writes in do you expect McDaniels to open up 2372 01:51:57,720 --> 01:52:00,280 Speaker 6: the playbook a bit considering his offense hasn't been able 2373 01:52:00,320 --> 01:52:02,760 Speaker 6: to play in anything but snow or wetness. Because I 2374 01:52:02,880 --> 01:52:05,479 Speaker 6: believe the weather has helped a bit, not allowing the 2375 01:52:05,520 --> 01:52:07,679 Speaker 6: Pages to put a lot more of their playoff install 2376 01:52:07,800 --> 01:52:08,320 Speaker 6: on film. 2377 01:52:08,800 --> 01:52:10,840 Speaker 7: I also expect some trickery from him as well. What 2378 01:52:10,880 --> 01:52:11,559 Speaker 7: do you guys think. 2379 01:52:11,800 --> 01:52:13,519 Speaker 9: I think we've seen that in the first three games, 2380 01:52:13,560 --> 01:52:15,760 Speaker 9: and I expect to see more of it. There's been 2381 01:52:16,680 --> 01:52:20,479 Speaker 9: trick plays in every game, usually more than one. I 2382 01:52:20,720 --> 01:52:22,519 Speaker 9: expect to see something. I don't know what it will be. 2383 01:52:24,160 --> 01:52:26,000 Speaker 9: You know, you guys were talking about the throwback to 2384 01:52:26,080 --> 01:52:28,280 Speaker 9: Brady in one of the Super Bowls. You know, we 2385 01:52:28,840 --> 01:52:30,960 Speaker 9: didn't really see a whole lot of the direct snaps, 2386 01:52:31,960 --> 01:52:33,960 Speaker 9: you know, the flea flickers. We've seen a couple of 2387 01:52:34,280 --> 01:52:36,320 Speaker 9: variations of flee flickers just in the last five or 2388 01:52:36,360 --> 01:52:36,800 Speaker 9: six weeks. 2389 01:52:36,880 --> 01:52:37,679 Speaker 7: There's been two. 2390 01:52:38,600 --> 01:52:40,559 Speaker 4: Stay trying to throw it to Drake and Aptonism threw 2391 01:52:40,560 --> 01:52:41,160 Speaker 4: it over his head. 2392 01:52:41,240 --> 01:52:43,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I expect to see more of that. 2393 01:52:43,520 --> 01:52:44,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah. 2394 01:52:44,400 --> 01:52:45,800 Speaker 12: I think one of the things that you look at 2395 01:52:45,880 --> 01:52:47,799 Speaker 12: with the Seattle defense, I don't know if it's necessarily 2396 01:52:47,880 --> 01:52:51,400 Speaker 12: trick plays, but they're so good in structure, like they're 2397 01:52:51,479 --> 01:52:54,599 Speaker 12: they're such a good pass defense, just you know, straight 2398 01:52:54,720 --> 01:52:57,120 Speaker 12: up in structure on the play. But the one thing 2399 01:52:57,200 --> 01:53:00,960 Speaker 12: that they have had some issues with. Are second reaction 2400 01:53:01,120 --> 01:53:03,880 Speaker 12: or out of structure or playground football, I guess is 2401 01:53:04,160 --> 01:53:05,040 Speaker 12: the best way to say it. 2402 01:53:05,520 --> 01:53:07,200 Speaker 7: So some of that is. 2403 01:53:07,280 --> 01:53:10,280 Speaker 12: Desperation, right, you know, guy quarterbacks running for his life 2404 01:53:10,280 --> 01:53:13,080 Speaker 12: and he stumbles into a play here or there, which 2405 01:53:13,120 --> 01:53:15,599 Speaker 12: is kind of what happened to Brock Purdy, I would say. 2406 01:53:16,120 --> 01:53:19,479 Speaker 12: But some of that also is, you know, can you 2407 01:53:19,800 --> 01:53:22,760 Speaker 12: kind of break down their zones a little bit where well, 2408 01:53:22,840 --> 01:53:24,960 Speaker 12: now that you know Drake May gets out of the pocket, 2409 01:53:25,080 --> 01:53:27,840 Speaker 12: he's extending the play. They got a plaster they got 2410 01:53:27,960 --> 01:53:30,160 Speaker 12: to take him or whatever, and maybe he can pop 2411 01:53:30,240 --> 01:53:33,000 Speaker 12: open some receivers by doing that. It's really hard to 2412 01:53:33,040 --> 01:53:34,800 Speaker 12: beat them just dropping. 2413 01:53:34,520 --> 01:53:37,360 Speaker 4: Back the pass and trying to beat their coverage. They're 2414 01:53:37,439 --> 01:53:39,160 Speaker 4: just too good in the back end. 2415 01:53:39,560 --> 01:53:42,360 Speaker 12: So maybe Drake May getting outside the pocket and extending 2416 01:53:42,400 --> 01:53:44,280 Speaker 12: to play a little bit. And I would like to 2417 01:53:44,280 --> 01:53:46,200 Speaker 12: see him do it as a thrower, you know, like 2418 01:53:46,479 --> 01:53:48,720 Speaker 12: maybe a little bit more than what we've seen in 2419 01:53:48,760 --> 01:53:50,840 Speaker 12: the playoffs. He's been great as a runner, but can 2420 01:53:50,880 --> 01:53:54,080 Speaker 12: they get him back into extending plays with his eyes 2421 01:53:54,120 --> 01:53:56,280 Speaker 12: down the field a little bit more to try to 2422 01:53:56,320 --> 01:53:57,120 Speaker 12: be a thrower. 2423 01:53:57,439 --> 01:54:00,559 Speaker 6: I'd feel better about that if up at this point, 2424 01:54:00,680 --> 01:54:03,759 Speaker 6: Pop had been more part of the offense as a receiver, 2425 01:54:05,120 --> 01:54:08,240 Speaker 6: because you know, when you talk about running, you know, 2426 01:54:08,360 --> 01:54:10,960 Speaker 6: throwing on the run, you need your receivers to be 2427 01:54:11,080 --> 01:54:11,920 Speaker 6: on the same page. 2428 01:54:12,080 --> 01:54:14,000 Speaker 7: You need them to be traveling with you. 2429 01:54:15,200 --> 01:54:17,600 Speaker 6: And you know, like we haven't seen a lot of 2430 01:54:17,680 --> 01:54:20,000 Speaker 6: that from Pop, and I think he's the guy that 2431 01:54:20,120 --> 01:54:23,840 Speaker 6: I think has the quickness to be able to do that. 2432 01:54:24,120 --> 01:54:27,720 Speaker 12: Yeah, they're just they're they're so sound, and when you 2433 01:54:27,800 --> 01:54:31,400 Speaker 12: look at just trying to beat them, you know, within 2434 01:54:31,520 --> 01:54:34,720 Speaker 12: the pocket instructure, hit the top of your drop and throw. 2435 01:54:34,920 --> 01:54:36,840 Speaker 12: Like they're just so good at all the things that 2436 01:54:37,520 --> 01:54:39,520 Speaker 12: you know, they're taking away everything in the back end 2437 01:54:39,600 --> 01:54:42,240 Speaker 12: and it might take, you know, for the Patriots to 2438 01:54:42,280 --> 01:54:45,080 Speaker 12: win this game. Drake May making a few plays with 2439 01:54:45,200 --> 01:54:47,960 Speaker 12: his legs, you know, outside the pocket to try to. 2440 01:54:48,000 --> 01:54:48,920 Speaker 4: Open it up a little bit. 2441 01:54:49,000 --> 01:54:53,120 Speaker 6: Ye, all right, let's get back to the phones. Eight 2442 01:54:53,240 --> 01:54:55,880 Speaker 6: five five pats five hundred Johnson Dallas, what's up? 2443 01:54:55,960 --> 01:54:56,200 Speaker 4: John? 2444 01:54:58,960 --> 01:54:59,400 Speaker 7: Hey John? 2445 01:55:01,040 --> 01:55:03,600 Speaker 6: No, people just not hanging up, Johnny, John you're there, 2446 01:55:05,080 --> 01:55:09,520 Speaker 6: so okay? Three two you're a gud uh. Let's go 2447 01:55:09,720 --> 01:55:11,440 Speaker 6: to now I can't hang up.

Yeah, Noah, Noah? 2452 01:55:21,120 --> 01:55:21,440 Speaker 4: You there? 2453 01:55:25,920 --> 01:55:26,320 Speaker 7: What's up? 2454 01:55:26,400 --> 01:55:26,640 Speaker 10: Noah? 2455 01:55:27,320 --> 01:55:28,160 Speaker 20: Hey, how's the guard? 2456 01:55:29,320 --> 01:55:30,960 Speaker 28: I've got a cool question for you guys. 2457 01:55:32,400 --> 01:55:33,440 Speaker 7: Okay, with the. 2458 01:55:33,600 --> 01:55:36,120 Speaker 8: Super Bowl coming up, I'm a big Patriots fan, but 2459 01:55:36,240 --> 01:55:37,640 Speaker 8: I know we got a lot of rookies. 2460 01:55:38,200 --> 01:55:40,920 Speaker 16: With that being said, how do you guys feel the 2461 01:55:41,000 --> 01:55:43,680 Speaker 16: Pats we're gonna do with the offense being filled with 2462 01:55:43,800 --> 01:55:44,680 Speaker 16: a bunch of rookies. 2463 01:55:47,000 --> 01:55:47,600 Speaker 7: It's a great quest. 2464 01:55:47,600 --> 01:55:49,440 Speaker 8: I mean, look, I think by this point they played 2465 01:55:49,440 --> 01:55:51,600 Speaker 8: a lot of football, No question, nobody's played in a 2466 01:55:51,640 --> 01:55:54,320 Speaker 8: super Bowl and it's a step up. But I think 2467 01:55:54,400 --> 01:55:57,280 Speaker 8: that the confidence this team has, and you know, just 2468 01:55:57,360 --> 01:56:00,520 Speaker 8: I think Mike Frabel's ability to get his guys to go. 2469 01:56:00,920 --> 01:56:03,480 Speaker 8: I have good confidence that they're gonna come out and 2470 01:56:03,520 --> 01:56:05,200 Speaker 8: play pretty well. But you know, it's a grind. 2471 01:56:05,280 --> 01:56:06,120 Speaker 7: This is a long game. 2472 01:56:06,640 --> 01:56:08,560 Speaker 8: There are lots of ebbs and flows in a Super Bowl, 2473 01:56:08,600 --> 01:56:09,840 Speaker 8: and I mean, I don't know if it's just the 2474 01:56:10,640 --> 01:56:12,440 Speaker 8: schedule of it all and the timing and the halftime 2475 01:56:12,480 --> 01:56:14,440 Speaker 8: and all that stuff, But when we talked a little 2476 01:56:14,440 --> 01:56:16,879 Speaker 8: bit about Super Bowl thirty eight, that's the perfect example 2477 01:56:16,960 --> 01:56:19,600 Speaker 8: of just a game that was drunk in the second 2478 01:56:19,640 --> 01:56:21,560 Speaker 8: and fourth quarters, and you know, nobody could move the 2479 01:56:21,600 --> 01:56:21,840 Speaker 8: ball in. 2480 01:56:21,800 --> 01:56:24,400 Speaker 7: The first and third And I just I go back 2481 01:56:24,400 --> 01:56:24,760 Speaker 7: to most of. 2482 01:56:24,720 --> 01:56:27,080 Speaker 8: The Super Bowls we've watched with the Patriots, they almost 2483 01:56:27,080 --> 01:56:28,080 Speaker 8: always come down to the end. 2484 01:56:28,760 --> 01:56:30,840 Speaker 7: I think that's more likely the case in this game. 2485 01:56:31,240 --> 01:56:33,120 Speaker 6: Yeah. I mean, you know, when you talk about rookies 2486 01:56:33,160 --> 01:56:35,640 Speaker 6: on offense, obviously you talk about Henderson, but and you're 2487 01:56:35,680 --> 01:56:38,680 Speaker 6: talking about the left side of the Patriots offensive line. 2488 01:56:40,040 --> 01:56:42,200 Speaker 7: But there's also a lot of guys they're not rookies, 2489 01:56:42,240 --> 01:56:42,920 Speaker 7: but they've never been in. 2490 01:56:42,920 --> 01:56:43,400 Speaker 10: A Super Bowl. 2491 01:56:43,560 --> 01:56:45,480 Speaker 12: Yeah, you know, and that's no way to know too, 2492 01:56:45,600 --> 01:56:47,520 Speaker 12: But that's true for ball teams. I would say there's 2493 01:56:47,560 --> 01:56:49,640 Speaker 12: not a ton of Super Bowl experience on either side 2494 01:56:50,160 --> 01:56:52,560 Speaker 12: at this point. It's really if you're talking offense, it's 2495 01:56:52,640 --> 01:56:55,600 Speaker 12: really just the two linemen like Trayvon Henderson really hasn't 2496 01:56:55,640 --> 01:56:57,280 Speaker 12: played played four snaps in. 2497 01:56:57,280 --> 01:56:58,520 Speaker 4: The AFC Championship Game. 2498 01:56:59,000 --> 01:57:01,760 Speaker 12: Kyle Williams really hasn't played either. Now, it's a big 2499 01:57:02,240 --> 01:57:04,440 Speaker 12: the left tackle is a big position. Like, don't get 2500 01:57:04,480 --> 01:57:06,840 Speaker 12: me wrong, it's not it's a big spot to have 2501 01:57:06,920 --> 01:57:09,800 Speaker 12: a rookie in. But it's not exactly like they have 2502 01:57:10,000 --> 01:57:10,640 Speaker 12: six rookies. 2503 01:57:11,000 --> 01:57:11,560 Speaker 1: No, it's the two. 2504 01:57:11,640 --> 01:57:14,440 Speaker 9: It's the two rookie offensive lineman, which I think has 2505 01:57:14,520 --> 01:57:17,160 Speaker 9: never happened in a Super Bowl. Two rookie starters on 2506 01:57:17,240 --> 01:57:19,760 Speaker 9: the offensive line. So yeah, I mean that's significant. 2507 01:57:19,800 --> 01:57:20,640 Speaker 7: But I agree with you. 2508 01:57:21,080 --> 01:57:23,720 Speaker 1: You know the other guys, you know, they might play 2509 01:57:23,720 --> 01:57:26,040 Speaker 1: a little bit in this game, all right, not much. 2510 01:57:26,120 --> 01:57:26,160 Speaker 9: So. 2511 01:57:26,200 --> 01:57:27,960 Speaker 6: I think we're getting ready for another guest here, and 2512 01:57:28,000 --> 01:57:30,840 Speaker 6: this one's an interesting one. We teet him up the 2513 01:57:30,920 --> 01:57:34,120 Speaker 6: first day we're here, and uh, we scheduled him in 2514 01:57:34,520 --> 01:57:36,520 Speaker 6: because I know a lot of Patriots fans want to 2515 01:57:36,560 --> 01:57:43,240 Speaker 6: talk to him. So doctor doctor Chow, thank you again. 2516 01:57:43,360 --> 01:57:50,360 Speaker 6: Fred Kirsh Paul Parillo, So, uh, you know him from 2517 01:57:50,400 --> 01:57:53,960 Speaker 6: the Internet.

I do what 2523 01:58:05,400 --> 01:58:08,680 Speaker 10: I call the medical Mike Pereira. I don't wish harm 2524 01:58:08,880 --> 01:58:11,400 Speaker 10: On Drake may believe or not, I would I didn't 2525 01:58:11,400 --> 01:58:19,520 Speaker 10: say that I'm actually a Patriots fan. Like I went 2526 01:58:19,560 --> 01:58:22,400 Speaker 10: to school in the Boston area, Okay, Like I have 2527 01:58:22,520 --> 01:58:23,600 Speaker 10: friends that are the Patriots. 2528 01:58:23,640 --> 01:58:26,120 Speaker 18: I just have a lot of Patriot fan friends. I 2529 01:58:26,200 --> 01:58:30,080 Speaker 18: would look Teddy Bruce's one of my guys junior sales. 2530 01:58:30,680 --> 01:58:36,440 Speaker 18: But bottom line is it's just injury analysis. It's information 2531 01:58:36,560 --> 01:58:37,800 Speaker 18: that's publicly available. 2532 01:58:38,320 --> 01:58:41,560 Speaker 10: And the other thing that I would tell Patriots fans is, look, no, 2533 01:58:41,640 --> 01:58:45,760 Speaker 10: I'm not examining him, not diagnosing him. It's an injury impression. 2534 01:58:45,960 --> 01:58:50,760 Speaker 10: Insider knowledge, not insider information. And remember, and I'll say 2535 01:58:50,800 --> 01:58:53,040 Speaker 10: this because of Boston, I'm Paul Revere. 2536 01:58:53,200 --> 01:58:56,200 Speaker 9: I'm not the British, right, I just you know, for 2537 01:58:56,840 --> 01:58:59,720 Speaker 9: medical that's a perfect description doctor Chow. 2538 01:59:00,600 --> 01:59:03,440 Speaker 6: He watches the games and based on what he sees 2539 01:59:03,840 --> 01:59:09,440 Speaker 6: at the video evidence comes up with, you know, a 2540 01:59:09,600 --> 01:59:13,160 Speaker 6: guess or an educated guess at what might be going 2541 01:59:13,240 --> 01:59:14,080 Speaker 6: on with the player. 2542 01:59:14,560 --> 01:59:20,000 Speaker 10: Why did you start doing this? Honestly? The history is this, I, 2543 01:59:20,480 --> 01:59:22,440 Speaker 10: for seventeen years as the head team position of the 2544 01:59:22,520 --> 01:59:27,480 Speaker 10: San Diego Chargers, saw players on the field, on the sideline, 2545 01:59:27,520 --> 01:59:29,560 Speaker 10: in the locker room the next day after an MRI, 2546 01:59:29,600 --> 01:59:33,000 Speaker 10: I knew exactly what their diagnosis was. But as you 2547 01:59:33,080 --> 01:59:37,320 Speaker 10: guys know, on Monday in an NFL facility, everyone's looking 2548 01:59:37,400 --> 01:59:42,440 Speaker 10: at film, coaches, players, whatever players used to players used 2549 01:59:42,480 --> 01:59:45,320 Speaker 10: to say to me sometimes, I said, how'd you get hurt? 2550 01:59:45,360 --> 01:59:46,920 Speaker 10: I'm not sure. I have to look at film. And 2551 01:59:47,000 --> 01:59:49,200 Speaker 10: I usually had about half an hour to kill before 2552 01:59:49,280 --> 01:59:52,040 Speaker 10: meeting with the GM, so I felt like I should 2553 01:59:52,040 --> 01:59:52,760 Speaker 10: be looking at film. 2554 01:59:52,960 --> 01:59:53,720 Speaker 7: What was I looking for? 2555 01:59:53,920 --> 01:59:56,080 Speaker 10: I had no idea. I just felt like I wanted 2556 01:59:56,120 --> 01:59:58,440 Speaker 10: to be one of the cool kids, right, And so 2557 01:59:58,600 --> 02:00:01,200 Speaker 10: I would go in the video. I would would show 2558 02:00:01,280 --> 02:00:04,320 Speaker 10: me the coach's sideline, end zone and the TV copy, 2559 02:00:04,840 --> 02:00:07,680 Speaker 10: and then I would see exactly what the injury was 2560 02:00:07,960 --> 02:00:11,440 Speaker 10: and then how it happened. Then after at Boy Girl 2561 02:00:11,520 --> 02:00:13,880 Speaker 10: Twins married, you know, decided I can't do all this 2562 02:00:13,960 --> 02:00:16,960 Speaker 10: traveling and stuff anymore. Well, before they went to LA, 2563 02:00:17,040 --> 02:00:19,840 Speaker 10: I never went to LA. I'm sitting on my couch 2564 02:00:19,920 --> 02:00:23,280 Speaker 10: for the first time, watching a game and my wife's 2565 02:00:23,520 --> 02:00:26,160 Speaker 10: and there's a guy who goes down. The announcer says, oh, 2566 02:00:26,240 --> 02:00:28,480 Speaker 10: that looked bad, but I think he's okay. He walked off, 2567 02:00:28,960 --> 02:00:31,600 Speaker 10: and I said, no, he towards ACL. I'm just talking 2568 02:00:31,640 --> 02:00:34,000 Speaker 10: to the TV towards ACL. This season is over. 2569 02:00:34,080 --> 02:00:34,760 Speaker 7: And how did you know that? 2570 02:00:35,360 --> 02:00:38,240 Speaker 10: By looking at the video and understanding and studying, how 2571 02:00:38,440 --> 02:00:41,640 Speaker 10: does Drake may know it's a cover two. That's the 2572 02:00:41,720 --> 02:00:43,920 Speaker 10: Mike linebacker, and I'm going to hit Hunter Henry on 2573 02:00:44,000 --> 02:00:46,080 Speaker 10: the slant. I mean, how does he know because he's 2574 02:00:46,080 --> 02:00:48,960 Speaker 10: a professional and he's looked at the film a million times. Okay, 2575 02:00:49,320 --> 02:00:51,920 Speaker 10: So I said, the guy towards ACL and he's done. 2576 02:00:51,960 --> 02:00:54,440 Speaker 10: My wife turned to me very kindly and said, tell 2577 02:00:54,480 --> 02:00:58,440 Speaker 10: it to someone who cares, and I said, kindly, Hunt, 2578 02:00:58,440 --> 02:01:00,440 Speaker 10: I said, kindly, and she signed me up Twitter. I 2579 02:01:00,480 --> 02:01:02,040 Speaker 10: was like, social Media, what is this? I don't even 2580 02:01:02,040 --> 02:01:04,080 Speaker 10: know what it is? And fast forward. You know, it's 2581 02:01:04,120 --> 02:01:07,680 Speaker 10: sort of gotten legs of its own as more interest 2582 02:01:07,880 --> 02:01:12,040 Speaker 10: in fantasy and gambling and injuries and fandom, et cetera. 2583 02:01:12,440 --> 02:01:15,760 Speaker 10: And coach Rabel, who I love, by the way, is right? 2584 02:01:16,280 --> 02:01:20,040 Speaker 10: Is the Drake may injury situation overblown? It one hundred 2585 02:01:20,080 --> 02:01:23,600 Speaker 10: percent is. But it's the Super Bowl and it's your 2586 02:01:23,680 --> 02:01:27,440 Speaker 10: starting quarterback with a new injury. I mean, it just 2587 02:01:27,640 --> 02:01:28,120 Speaker 10: is what it is. 2588 02:01:28,240 --> 02:01:31,040 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean it's a story, and it's a story. 2589 02:01:31,480 --> 02:01:35,400 Speaker 7: So I'm I'm I'm fine with you reporting it. So 2590 02:01:35,520 --> 02:01:36,560 Speaker 7: I don't know why you're. 2591 02:01:38,040 --> 02:01:40,960 Speaker 10: No. No, no, Well look Patriots, like I guess, I 2592 02:01:41,080 --> 02:01:42,680 Speaker 10: went to school in Boston here, I had three friends 2593 02:01:42,720 --> 02:01:44,960 Speaker 10: call me and said, you're getting killed out here at 2594 02:01:45,080 --> 02:01:47,640 Speaker 10: local media and by fans. I'm like for what I did, 2595 02:01:47,920 --> 02:01:51,320 Speaker 10: But it's observational reporting, is what it is. I'm just 2596 02:01:51,440 --> 02:01:54,960 Speaker 10: reporting what I see. And yes, I do believe he 2597 02:01:55,080 --> 02:01:56,480 Speaker 10: has an ac joint spray? 2598 02:01:57,000 --> 02:01:57,839 Speaker 7: Is it serious? 2599 02:01:58,200 --> 02:02:02,560 Speaker 10: Look? Any injury is It's the Super Bowl? Is he 2600 02:02:02,640 --> 02:02:06,440 Speaker 10: gonna play one hundred percent? Right? How well was he 2601 02:02:06,520 --> 02:02:06,840 Speaker 10: gonna do? 2602 02:02:06,920 --> 02:02:07,160 Speaker 7: Whatever? 2603 02:02:07,320 --> 02:02:09,720 Speaker 10: It is the game of football. Everyone has something going on, 2604 02:02:10,320 --> 02:02:12,120 Speaker 10: and we'll see like he's gonna make it. 2605 02:02:12,440 --> 02:02:14,600 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I think I saw you said that his 2606 02:02:14,720 --> 02:02:17,680 Speaker 8: deep ball accuracy could possibly be effective by something like this. 2607 02:02:17,880 --> 02:02:20,400 Speaker 8: That's concerning because that feels like something he's gonna need 2608 02:02:20,440 --> 02:02:20,920 Speaker 8: in this game. 2609 02:02:21,040 --> 02:02:23,160 Speaker 10: Well, that's something that he's been really really good at. 2610 02:02:23,280 --> 02:02:23,480 Speaker 7: Yeah. 2611 02:02:23,520 --> 02:02:25,960 Speaker 10: No, I'll be very careful here. I didn't say that 2612 02:02:26,040 --> 02:02:28,520 Speaker 10: he couldn't throw the deep ball. I'm just saying that 2613 02:02:28,600 --> 02:02:31,480 Speaker 10: would be a concern because an ac joint is when 2614 02:02:31,520 --> 02:02:34,440 Speaker 10: you follow through. Now, the ac joint isn't even technically 2615 02:02:34,520 --> 02:02:37,400 Speaker 10: the shoulder joint. It's around the shoulder, but it's not 2616 02:02:37,560 --> 02:02:38,560 Speaker 10: part of the rotator cuff. 2617 02:02:38,600 --> 02:02:39,320 Speaker 7: So that's good news. 2618 02:02:39,800 --> 02:02:41,640 Speaker 10: It's it's not saying he can't throw the deep ball 2619 02:02:41,760 --> 02:02:44,920 Speaker 10: or drive his throws. It's a question that what I 2620 02:02:45,000 --> 02:02:45,920 Speaker 10: will be watching for. 2621 02:02:46,360 --> 02:02:47,280 Speaker 7: But knowing and. 2622 02:02:47,320 --> 02:02:51,200 Speaker 10: Loving Mike Rayball, I anticipate first series he's gonna have him. 2623 02:02:52,240 --> 02:02:54,440 Speaker 10: That's that's raybel Man, He's the man. 2624 02:02:55,840 --> 02:02:57,960 Speaker 12: I wanted to ask you just sorry, fred I just 2625 02:02:58,000 --> 02:03:00,760 Speaker 12: wanted to ask you about driving the ball because one 2626 02:03:00,800 --> 02:03:01,200 Speaker 12: of the things. 2627 02:03:01,280 --> 02:03:03,360 Speaker 4: You know, I'm the nerd here, so I charged all 2628 02:03:03,440 --> 02:03:04,520 Speaker 4: the film. 2629 02:03:04,320 --> 02:03:05,080 Speaker 7: And all that stuff. 2630 02:03:05,440 --> 02:03:08,320 Speaker 12: And he was short on a number of throws in 2631 02:03:08,360 --> 02:03:11,880 Speaker 12: the AFC Championship game that he wouldn't normally be throwing short, 2632 02:03:12,400 --> 02:03:14,440 Speaker 12: you know, deep in cuts, things like that that we've 2633 02:03:14,480 --> 02:03:16,920 Speaker 12: seen Drake making his sleep and then we get into 2634 02:03:17,000 --> 02:03:19,120 Speaker 12: this game and he was short arming these throws. 2635 02:03:19,400 --> 02:03:21,880 Speaker 4: Is that something that could be a byproduct of an 2636 02:03:21,920 --> 02:03:22,520 Speaker 4: injury like this? 2637 02:03:23,000 --> 02:03:25,680 Speaker 10: Well, the injury happened late in the third quarter. There 2638 02:03:25,720 --> 02:03:29,000 Speaker 10: were only three passes after that. One will drop back 2639 02:03:29,040 --> 02:03:31,720 Speaker 10: in a sack, but there were only three passes. The 2640 02:03:31,880 --> 02:03:34,080 Speaker 10: next play he gets up, he getting a little bit shoulder, 2641 02:03:34,120 --> 02:03:36,840 Speaker 10: gets the huddle, hands the ball off next play and 2642 02:03:36,880 --> 02:03:38,920 Speaker 10: then you can see him doing this in the huddle 2643 02:03:39,160 --> 02:03:41,720 Speaker 10: and the next play he completes the thirty yard fleet flicker. 2644 02:03:41,840 --> 02:03:44,000 Speaker 10: He saw that it wasn't a bullet pass. 2645 02:03:44,760 --> 02:03:48,160 Speaker 1: Whatever is a point, not really a follow through with authority, 2646 02:03:48,400 --> 02:03:48,600 Speaker 1: but it. 2647 02:03:48,640 --> 02:03:50,760 Speaker 10: Was also that's not what was needed either, So right, 2648 02:03:50,840 --> 02:03:52,440 Speaker 10: I mean, you got to get it over the top 2649 02:03:52,480 --> 02:03:53,920 Speaker 10: and he was open, so he made the good throw. 2650 02:03:54,200 --> 02:03:57,040 Speaker 10: His next throw, as you know, was the out and 2651 02:03:57,160 --> 02:03:59,120 Speaker 10: he dirted it. It was a horrible throw. 2652 02:03:59,520 --> 02:03:59,880 Speaker 7: Was it win? 2653 02:04:00,560 --> 02:04:02,440 Speaker 10: Was it poor grip because of the weather. Was it 2654 02:04:02,560 --> 02:04:04,400 Speaker 10: the pressure in his face that he couldn't step in 2655 02:04:04,440 --> 02:04:06,040 Speaker 10: the throw? Was it the shoulder? 2656 02:04:06,480 --> 02:04:06,640 Speaker 30: Was it? 2657 02:04:07,640 --> 02:04:09,920 Speaker 10: It was a little bit of all. Maybe I don't know, right, 2658 02:04:10,040 --> 02:04:13,280 Speaker 10: but I can't attribute any of the earlier throws to 2659 02:04:13,400 --> 02:04:16,040 Speaker 10: it because it happened late third quarter. And then of course, 2660 02:04:16,520 --> 02:04:18,600 Speaker 10: with his back to the goal line, he rolled out 2661 02:04:18,600 --> 02:04:20,680 Speaker 10: and threw out a balance you know, just floated one 2662 02:04:20,680 --> 02:04:20,960 Speaker 10: out of it. 2663 02:04:21,160 --> 02:04:21,440 Speaker 4: That was it. 2664 02:04:21,520 --> 02:04:22,440 Speaker 1: That was all quick, right. 2665 02:04:22,480 --> 02:04:24,480 Speaker 9: I just want to you know, so just to give 2666 02:04:24,520 --> 02:04:28,400 Speaker 9: you a little more context again your your observational. So 2667 02:04:28,600 --> 02:04:32,560 Speaker 9: after you had your your tweet, there was a report 2668 02:04:32,960 --> 02:04:35,520 Speaker 9: locally that he's actually been dealing with something with the 2669 02:04:35,560 --> 02:04:39,800 Speaker 9: shoulder prior to this game, and whatever happened in Denver 2670 02:04:40,160 --> 02:04:44,440 Speaker 9: was like sort of an aggravation of a pre existing injury, 2671 02:04:44,520 --> 02:04:46,480 Speaker 9: which goes back to Evans point. 2672 02:04:46,920 --> 02:04:48,560 Speaker 1: We thought he was a little off in this game. 2673 02:04:48,640 --> 02:04:50,800 Speaker 10: It was just a yeah, Well you can argue he 2674 02:04:50,880 --> 02:04:52,680 Speaker 10: was a little off in all the playoffs compared to 2675 02:04:52,680 --> 02:04:56,040 Speaker 10: the NBA paratively. Now we have gone back. We saw 2676 02:04:56,120 --> 02:04:58,640 Speaker 10: that Phil Perry tweet our staff. You see some of 2677 02:04:58,640 --> 02:04:59,920 Speaker 10: the guys in the mitchet. So it went back in. 2678 02:05:00,000 --> 02:05:01,800 Speaker 10: Looked at all the game film. Probably what you do, 2679 02:05:02,120 --> 02:05:04,400 Speaker 10: they feed me the relevant stuff, but they scour it all. 2680 02:05:04,640 --> 02:05:06,640 Speaker 10: We did not see a play where he got hurt 2681 02:05:06,720 --> 02:05:09,960 Speaker 10: before that in the season in the playoffs? Could it 2682 02:05:10,040 --> 02:05:13,920 Speaker 10: be cumulative as Drake has im, Look, both can be true. 2683 02:05:14,360 --> 02:05:16,800 Speaker 10: He could have had somewhere and tear and this new 2684 02:05:16,920 --> 02:05:20,080 Speaker 10: thing happened on top of it. Of coach Coach Rabel said, Look, 2685 02:05:20,120 --> 02:05:22,520 Speaker 10: if he had any shoulder issue, it would have been reported. 2686 02:05:22,600 --> 02:05:25,400 Speaker 10: He didn't and he's tried to put it into that. Sure, 2687 02:05:25,480 --> 02:05:27,680 Speaker 10: but both can be true. But here's the other thing. 2688 02:05:28,560 --> 02:05:31,760 Speaker 10: You want your head coach to be Mike Rabel. You 2689 02:05:32,080 --> 02:05:34,160 Speaker 10: want your head coach to have a little bit of 2690 02:05:34,240 --> 02:05:38,120 Speaker 10: coach speak in it. You want him that's what they do. 2691 02:05:38,440 --> 02:05:39,640 Speaker 10: That's not a bad thing. 2692 02:05:39,880 --> 02:05:40,360 Speaker 4: So I'm not. 2693 02:05:40,600 --> 02:05:44,000 Speaker 10: You know, that's part of the gamesmanship of the NFL. 2694 02:05:44,120 --> 02:05:46,240 Speaker 10: By the way it goes. I have a question the 2695 02:05:46,360 --> 02:05:46,960 Speaker 10: Denver game. 2696 02:05:47,520 --> 02:05:50,040 Speaker 6: At the end of the game, May runs for the 2697 02:05:50,080 --> 02:05:53,160 Speaker 6: first down and goes out of bounds and then goes 2698 02:05:53,240 --> 02:05:55,400 Speaker 6: down the sideline and when his right arm gives the 2699 02:05:55,480 --> 02:05:58,760 Speaker 6: fist pump, did you look at that as any indication like, well, 2700 02:05:58,920 --> 02:06:01,960 Speaker 6: maybe it's not so bad because he's. 2701 02:06:01,560 --> 02:06:03,240 Speaker 4: You know, he also stiff armed the guy. 2702 02:06:03,160 --> 02:06:06,600 Speaker 10: With those yeah and stiff arm. Look great play call, 2703 02:06:06,960 --> 02:06:09,400 Speaker 10: And I didn't believe for one second it was wasn't 2704 02:06:09,440 --> 02:06:11,720 Speaker 10: sent in from the sideline. Tom Brady in his second 2705 02:06:11,800 --> 02:06:14,160 Speaker 10: year wentn't audible that call, right? I mean, come on, 2706 02:06:14,960 --> 02:06:17,720 Speaker 10: but the stiff arm. First of all, a c joint 2707 02:06:17,800 --> 02:06:21,480 Speaker 10: is more overhead and cross body. Stiff arm probably something 2708 02:06:21,480 --> 02:06:23,280 Speaker 10: that he could do, and he did do it. And also, 2709 02:06:23,600 --> 02:06:25,560 Speaker 10: when you're running for your life and the games online, 2710 02:06:25,560 --> 02:06:27,640 Speaker 10: you're gonna do anything. I don't care how much it hurts, right, 2711 02:06:27,800 --> 02:06:30,760 Speaker 10: but if it hurts a little bit, how might that 2712 02:06:30,920 --> 02:06:34,400 Speaker 10: affect you on a fifty yard downfield pass in the subtleties, 2713 02:06:34,840 --> 02:06:37,280 Speaker 10: you're a fist pumping because you're excited. Look, I've said 2714 02:06:37,440 --> 02:06:39,960 Speaker 10: before There's four things that gonna happen that are in 2715 02:06:40,080 --> 02:06:44,400 Speaker 10: Drake May's favor to play one medically. Number one, well, 2716 02:06:44,440 --> 02:06:47,040 Speaker 10: first and foremost is Jim Whaling and company are gonna 2717 02:06:47,040 --> 02:06:49,840 Speaker 10: do a great job, right, that's a given. But the 2718 02:06:49,960 --> 02:06:52,760 Speaker 10: four things that are special is I've seen the magical 2719 02:06:52,800 --> 02:06:55,600 Speaker 10: healing powers of the extra week before the Super Bowl, right, 2720 02:06:55,720 --> 02:06:58,520 Speaker 10: so he ain't gonna miss. The second thing is there 2721 02:06:58,600 --> 02:07:01,000 Speaker 10: is a drug that he will be on come game 2722 02:07:01,120 --> 02:07:04,600 Speaker 10: time that all the Patriots and Seahawks players will be 2723 02:07:04,680 --> 02:07:07,600 Speaker 10: on that will be extra strength on Sunday Super Bowl Sunday, 2724 02:07:07,680 --> 02:07:11,480 Speaker 10: called adrenaline. So he's gonna be ready to go. Yes, 2725 02:07:11,840 --> 02:07:14,280 Speaker 10: he may indeed do some vitamin T toward all like 2726 02:07:14,400 --> 02:07:17,080 Speaker 10: Sam Donold has been reported to do for his oblique. 2727 02:07:17,920 --> 02:07:20,440 Speaker 10: Is it possible to put an injection into the AC 2728 02:07:20,720 --> 02:07:23,120 Speaker 10: joint and play? Yes? Will he do it or not 2729 02:07:23,280 --> 02:07:23,480 Speaker 10: do it? 2730 02:07:23,720 --> 02:07:24,400 Speaker 7: I don't know. 2731 02:07:24,640 --> 02:07:27,320 Speaker 10: That's a decision to him and the team doctors, et cetera. 2732 02:07:27,640 --> 02:07:29,880 Speaker 10: But he's gonna be out there and play. I'm gonna 2733 02:07:29,880 --> 02:07:32,840 Speaker 10: watch for his deep throw accuracy. I'm gonna fully expect 2734 02:07:32,880 --> 02:07:34,920 Speaker 10: that he unloads what early on in the game to 2735 02:07:34,960 --> 02:07:37,280 Speaker 10: send the message to complete the ball or what have you. 2736 02:07:37,440 --> 02:07:37,560 Speaker 7: Right. 2737 02:07:37,680 --> 02:07:39,880 Speaker 8: Want to ask you about another injury on the Patriots roster, 2738 02:07:39,920 --> 02:07:42,640 Speaker 8: which is Robert Splaine, who kind of a mis mystery 2739 02:07:42,680 --> 02:07:44,520 Speaker 8: to us. We never really saw him get hurt. All 2740 02:07:44,560 --> 02:07:46,640 Speaker 8: of a sudden, we noticed his playing time kind of dipping. 2741 02:07:47,200 --> 02:07:47,920 Speaker 7: Was out for a while. 2742 02:07:48,040 --> 02:07:49,560 Speaker 8: Seemed like the plan was to get him back for 2743 02:07:49,600 --> 02:07:51,440 Speaker 8: the playoffs. He came back, then he got hurt again, 2744 02:07:51,520 --> 02:07:54,200 Speaker 8: and he's back out. He said today, one hundred percent 2745 02:07:54,320 --> 02:07:56,480 Speaker 8: chance he thinks he's gonna play. Anything you've seen with 2746 02:07:56,680 --> 02:07:57,920 Speaker 8: Robert Splaine. 2747 02:07:57,640 --> 02:07:59,520 Speaker 10: Well without trying to get in trouble. I think what 2748 02:07:59,600 --> 02:08:02,200 Speaker 10: got me in trouble. On my podcast two mondays ago, 2749 02:08:02,360 --> 02:08:05,480 Speaker 10: as I said, I was more worried about Drake May's 2750 02:08:05,520 --> 02:08:08,720 Speaker 10: shoulder than Sam Darnold's oblique because it's already been two 2751 02:08:08,760 --> 02:08:10,640 Speaker 10: weeks old, will be four weeks old by the Super Bowl. 2752 02:08:10,720 --> 02:08:12,920 Speaker 10: Drake May's news, so of course you're more worried about it. 2753 02:08:13,720 --> 02:08:17,040 Speaker 10: I'm actually more worried about Robert Splaine's ankle than Drake 2754 02:08:17,120 --> 02:08:19,280 Speaker 10: May's shoulder. I hope you take that as good news 2755 02:08:19,360 --> 02:08:21,720 Speaker 10: that I'm optimistic about the shoulder, But why did he 2756 02:08:21,840 --> 02:08:23,920 Speaker 10: not come back into the game in Denver. He's a 2757 02:08:24,120 --> 02:08:27,760 Speaker 10: great sideline to sideline linebacker. The footing was hard enough 2758 02:08:28,000 --> 02:08:30,200 Speaker 10: in the snow, and otherwise you can't put a guy 2759 02:08:30,280 --> 02:08:33,080 Speaker 10: out there with an ankle who's already having trouble cutting 2760 02:08:33,120 --> 02:08:35,720 Speaker 10: on a dime on that slippery surface. He's not gonna 2761 02:08:35,760 --> 02:08:38,320 Speaker 10: be as effective. Do I think he's gonna play. I 2762 02:08:38,440 --> 02:08:40,760 Speaker 10: know he's gonna want to. I think he's gonna be 2763 02:08:40,840 --> 02:08:43,760 Speaker 10: medically cleared to play. But it's going to come down 2764 02:08:43,840 --> 02:08:47,440 Speaker 10: to a roster decision. Do you need that eighth offensive lineman, 2765 02:08:47,640 --> 02:08:50,880 Speaker 10: do you need that extra special teamer? What percent is 2766 02:08:51,040 --> 02:08:53,320 Speaker 10: Plaine at. It's gonna be a decision made by coach 2767 02:08:53,440 --> 02:08:55,840 Speaker 10: Rabel and company. He's gonna say I'm good to go 2768 02:08:55,920 --> 02:08:56,440 Speaker 10: and want to play. 2769 02:08:56,520 --> 02:08:56,920 Speaker 30: I know it. 2770 02:08:57,440 --> 02:08:59,520 Speaker 10: The medical is gonna say it's safe for him to play. 2771 02:08:59,720 --> 02:09:01,920 Speaker 10: A percent is the question, and it will be a 2772 02:09:02,000 --> 02:09:05,400 Speaker 10: mic rable call based on roster management in terms of 2773 02:09:05,480 --> 02:09:07,960 Speaker 10: if he plays or not. Everyone wants to play. 2774 02:09:08,040 --> 02:09:08,680 Speaker 7: I hope he does. 2775 02:09:08,920 --> 02:09:11,800 Speaker 10: He's a great linebacker. I hope you know, the adrenaline 2776 02:09:11,840 --> 02:09:13,440 Speaker 10: and everything and will take care of it and he 2777 02:09:13,480 --> 02:09:14,320 Speaker 10: does a do a job. 2778 02:09:14,280 --> 02:09:17,400 Speaker 6: So I you know, in the Denver game, when he explained, 2779 02:09:17,480 --> 02:09:19,920 Speaker 6: finally did come back from the locker room. We see 2780 02:09:20,000 --> 02:09:21,840 Speaker 6: him in the locker room with his helmet on, sort 2781 02:09:21,880 --> 02:09:24,160 Speaker 6: of going back and forth and testing his ankle. 2782 02:09:24,240 --> 02:09:25,200 Speaker 7: Do you look at stuff like that. 2783 02:09:25,520 --> 02:09:25,720 Speaker 13: We do. 2784 02:09:25,800 --> 02:09:27,840 Speaker 10: We look at anything that's available, right, yeah, and we 2785 02:09:27,920 --> 02:09:31,120 Speaker 10: do see that. And when he went to the locker room, 2786 02:09:31,800 --> 02:09:35,120 Speaker 10: it's just twitter whatever, but I tweeted out looking at 2787 02:09:35,160 --> 02:09:37,080 Speaker 10: the injury, and we did see the left ankle injury 2788 02:09:37,120 --> 02:09:40,000 Speaker 10: on video. My team gets me the in game video 2789 02:09:40,480 --> 02:09:42,840 Speaker 10: replays it said. I said, even though he's in the 2790 02:09:43,000 --> 02:09:44,800 Speaker 10: going to the locker room right now, I believe he 2791 02:09:44,880 --> 02:09:47,000 Speaker 10: has a chance to return. Usually when you see a 2792 02:09:47,000 --> 02:09:48,640 Speaker 10: guy go to locker om, he started saying ninety percent 2793 02:09:48,760 --> 02:09:49,960 Speaker 10: chance he's not coming back. I think he has a 2794 02:09:50,040 --> 02:09:52,880 Speaker 10: chance to return. He came on the sideline. He did return, 2795 02:09:53,200 --> 02:09:55,160 Speaker 10: and I did see fans replying to me, he's running. 2796 02:09:55,200 --> 02:09:57,120 Speaker 10: Why is he back in the game. Well, what he's 2797 02:09:57,160 --> 02:09:58,920 Speaker 10: doing on the sideline is one tenth of what he 2798 02:09:58,960 --> 02:10:01,840 Speaker 10: has to do in a game, especially in snowy conditions, 2799 02:10:01,880 --> 02:10:04,120 Speaker 10: et cetera, in terms of what the game needs. 2800 02:10:04,280 --> 02:10:04,400 Speaker 11: Right. 2801 02:10:04,600 --> 02:10:06,800 Speaker 6: I felt the same way as you in those conditions. 2802 02:10:06,880 --> 02:10:09,560 Speaker 6: If you don't need him to come back in, keep 2803 02:10:09,600 --> 02:10:10,480 Speaker 6: him on the sideline. 2804 02:10:10,520 --> 02:10:13,320 Speaker 10: But it's not even need him? Is is that is 2805 02:10:13,360 --> 02:10:16,440 Speaker 10: a Robert Blaine with an ankle injury, not being able 2806 02:10:16,480 --> 02:10:18,600 Speaker 10: to cut well on a dime on a dry surface 2807 02:10:18,840 --> 02:10:21,800 Speaker 10: going to be better than Gibbons on a slick surface, Right, 2808 02:10:21,920 --> 02:10:24,720 Speaker 10: It's it's it's not either or it's. Look, if if 2809 02:10:24,760 --> 02:10:26,680 Speaker 10: Gibbons went now, he would have gone back in the game, right, 2810 02:10:26,760 --> 02:10:29,200 Speaker 10: I mean, but when you have him like, okay, what's test? 2811 02:10:29,360 --> 02:10:32,360 Speaker 6: That makes sense? One hundred percent? Gibbons is better than yepe. 2812 02:10:32,480 --> 02:10:34,880 Speaker 8: Are there any other injuries on either team that you're 2813 02:10:35,080 --> 02:10:36,760 Speaker 8: kind of aware of or monitoring that could have an 2814 02:10:36,800 --> 02:10:37,440 Speaker 8: impact on the game. 2815 02:10:37,840 --> 02:10:40,280 Speaker 10: One I don't know too much about is Harold Landry's knee. 2816 02:10:40,320 --> 02:10:42,040 Speaker 10: Maybe you guys know more about that. I mean, it 2817 02:10:42,240 --> 02:10:43,920 Speaker 10: seems like it's a chronic the issue. It kind of 2818 02:10:43,960 --> 02:10:45,680 Speaker 10: came out of the blue for the AFC commed. 2819 02:10:45,520 --> 02:10:46,120 Speaker 7: Change the game. 2820 02:10:46,320 --> 02:10:48,880 Speaker 10: He's Rabel's guy, he's a veteran. Does he have vet knees? 2821 02:10:48,960 --> 02:10:49,320 Speaker 10: I don't know. 2822 02:10:49,400 --> 02:10:51,560 Speaker 8: I don't know too much about I'll tell you what 2823 02:10:51,640 --> 02:10:54,480 Speaker 8: we thought, Yeah, we thought he tore his ACL against 2824 02:10:54,920 --> 02:10:55,720 Speaker 8: against New Orleans. 2825 02:10:55,760 --> 02:10:57,440 Speaker 10: There was a play where he got hurt play what 2826 02:10:57,600 --> 02:11:02,120 Speaker 10: quarter ah, let me know and we'll go look at it. 2827 02:11:02,200 --> 02:11:06,120 Speaker 10: I'm not aware of that the first half. I'll get 2828 02:11:06,120 --> 02:11:07,600 Speaker 10: my guys on it and I'll get back to you. 2829 02:11:07,760 --> 02:11:09,640 Speaker 9: I came back in the game and continue to play 2830 02:11:09,680 --> 02:11:11,360 Speaker 9: throughout the season, but he was not the same player. 2831 02:11:11,440 --> 02:11:13,600 Speaker 10: I was not aware of that. So I would love 2832 02:11:13,720 --> 02:11:16,920 Speaker 10: to look at that. That would certainly be interesting and helpful. 2833 02:11:17,360 --> 02:11:20,680 Speaker 10: And for the Seahawks, you know, Sam Donald, he's gonna play. 2834 02:11:21,760 --> 02:11:24,000 Speaker 10: Maybe he still wears a flack jacket, but you can 2835 02:11:24,080 --> 02:11:26,120 Speaker 10: always reaggravate it. Let's say I'm Drake May. We talked 2836 02:11:26,120 --> 02:11:28,280 Speaker 10: about deep balls, like. I think he's tough as heck. 2837 02:11:28,720 --> 02:11:30,480 Speaker 10: I think he's gonna run and stick his shoulder in 2838 02:11:30,560 --> 02:11:32,480 Speaker 10: when he needs to. But when he needs to get down, 2839 02:11:32,480 --> 02:11:34,440 Speaker 10: he should get down. But if it's that extra yard 2840 02:11:34,440 --> 02:11:36,240 Speaker 10: of the first down, he's gonna stick his shoulder in 2841 02:11:36,280 --> 02:11:39,080 Speaker 10: there and take his chances. Sam Donald can always reaggravate 2842 02:11:39,120 --> 02:11:42,040 Speaker 10: the oblique. Charles Cross isn't even practicing at left tackle, 2843 02:11:42,280 --> 02:11:44,920 Speaker 10: but he has no injury designation for the game. The 2844 02:11:45,000 --> 02:11:47,839 Speaker 10: Seahawks have been the second healthiest team all season according 2845 02:11:47,840 --> 02:11:50,040 Speaker 10: to Our Sports in the re Central Sports First has 2846 02:11:50,320 --> 02:11:54,040 Speaker 10: was the Rams okay, okay, and then uh the Patriots. 2847 02:11:55,120 --> 02:11:58,680 Speaker 10: The Patriots were upper upper top ten, you know, five 2848 02:11:58,680 --> 02:12:01,320 Speaker 10: to six. I forget in turn of health throughout this season, 2849 02:12:01,480 --> 02:12:02,960 Speaker 10: and we had a few issues here and there, but 2850 02:12:03,240 --> 02:12:06,400 Speaker 10: but you know, that's what happens. The healthier team continues 2851 02:12:06,520 --> 02:12:08,880 Speaker 10: to survive, and that's part of it, right. 2852 02:12:08,840 --> 02:12:12,080 Speaker 7: Yeah, all right, well doctor, we appreciate you coming on. 2853 02:12:12,800 --> 02:12:13,040 Speaker 7: Thank you. 2854 02:12:13,120 --> 02:12:14,760 Speaker 6: As soon as we saw you a couple of days, Oh, 2855 02:12:14,840 --> 02:12:17,080 Speaker 6: we have to have him on, and I was like 2856 02:12:17,200 --> 02:12:17,840 Speaker 6: friend or foe. 2857 02:12:17,920 --> 02:12:22,240 Speaker 10: I'm joking. You guys are very fun and professionally. 2858 02:12:22,280 --> 02:12:24,000 Speaker 4: I was a little bit salty at first. 2859 02:12:24,040 --> 02:12:25,640 Speaker 12: I'm not gonna lie because you told me that Drake 2860 02:12:25,720 --> 02:12:28,200 Speaker 12: May's shoulder was hurt and I didn't like that.
