Tom Brady wont it three times 112 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 4: and Gronk won it once and otherwise there's been no 113 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 4: offensive Patriots to win it him. Maybe not all that surprising, 114 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 4: but I would have thought maybe eighteen nineteen Brady got 115 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 4: something in there, but no, he didn't. 116 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,119 Speaker 2: So congratulations Drake. I mean, Drake had a good game 117 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 2: to eighty two or something like that to touchdown. 118 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's interesting. I can see where the furrow brow 119 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: You're like, But what kind of is it like for him? 120 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 2: It's been an average games. 121 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 5: I thought that was one of his better games. 122 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, well he played with one of his best games, 123 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 3: But I thought that they were with Fred. I think 124 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 3: that like there wasn't. 125 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 1: Like a statistically oh my god, this was the game. 126 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 4: Like it's kind of like you've been doing this kid, 127 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 4: Now you. 128 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 5: Get statistically that's about I mean to eighty it was 129 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 5: like five yards off his career high ten yards office. 130 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 2: I think. But usually when you think of offensive player 131 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,040 Speaker 2: of the week, you think of running back with two 132 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,039 Speaker 2: hundred yards or quarterback with three fifty. 133 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 5: I'm sorry, I thought you meant in relation to May. 134 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 2: Oh no, no, no, no, no. 135 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 5: Two touchdowns. 136 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 3: I even got in relations to May like I think 137 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 3: I think that, like he didn't win it against Buffalo 138 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 3: when they beat. 139 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 2: Buffalo, But who was the up against that week? 140 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 3: I don't know how you could play they. 141 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 5: I was trying to get to, Yeah, he played great 142 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 5: game against Buffalo too. 143 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 2: The point I was trying to get to is it 144 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 2: probably wasn't a huge offensive. 145 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 5: Week downplaying Drake May awards. 146 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 4: I hear what he's saying, though, I was a little 147 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 4: surprised to like, no, it's just good, it's deserved. But 148 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,840 Speaker 4: it wasn't like, you know, if he had three twenty 149 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 4: four touchdowns there, you know, it's a good look, respectable. 150 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 4: And I think the thing about Drake may too is 151 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 4: that this is like his consistent performance. It's not literally 152 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 4: wavering from this. He's kind of you know, two fifty 153 00:06:57,880 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 4: plus a couple of touchdowns and you know the note 154 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 4: turnovers was big too. 155 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I think he's third in passing yards per game, 156 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 3: but he still doesn't have a three hundred yard game, right, 157 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 3: which tells you that every single week he's just at 158 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 3: like two eighty. Yeah, every week, And I give it. 159 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 3: You know, they did a little bit in this game, 160 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 3: like that last drive in the fourth quarter, they were 161 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 3: throwing down near the goal line. I think we talked 162 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 3: about it during the game. But he's very ethical, like 163 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 3: he doesn't go out there in stat pad a whole lot. 164 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 3: So you know, some of these fourth quarters, like they could, 165 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 3: let you know, he could go and rack up eighty 166 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 3: yards on a touchdown, drive up three scores in the 167 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 3: fourth quarter, and they don't really do that. 168 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 5: Do you agree with that? I think they've been in 169 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 5: i mean, not in control, but they've had the lead 170 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 5: in virtually every one of these games, and that's going 171 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 5: to lead to lower totals at the end. 172 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, you take your foot off. 173 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 5: That's what kind of stood out to me in this 174 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,239 Speaker 5: game because I agree with Evan. I think in general, 175 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 5: they've been very smart about the way that they've handled 176 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 5: the end of the game. And Mike Rabel has mentioned 177 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 5: many times after these games, it's always good to end 178 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 5: in victory formation with the ball in your hand, with 179 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 5: the ball and yeah, that's that's the. 180 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 3: Phrase big on the five minute offense, the. 181 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 5: Ball in your hands. Yeah. Yeah. You know. Bill used 182 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 5: to have those little quirks too, where people would call 183 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 5: it the red zone. He always called it the red area. 184 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 5: You know, everybody calls it the full minute offense. Verb 185 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 5: calls the five minute offense. 186 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 4: It's like these little we call it the green zone, 187 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 4: which it means go as coaches they do that too. 188 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, So that's the news and it's all good. 189 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 1: It is good. 190 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 4: Drake is also leading in Pro Bowl voting, so he's 191 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 4: you know, Drake's having a moment. 192 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 2: Well deserved.

Yeah, that's it. I mean I don't know 244 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 3: if like Drake would be nominated for Offensive Player of 245 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 3: the Year and m v P, but it usually that 246 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 3: doesn't go to the same person, you know. I think 247 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 3: like Jonathan Taylor might or Pooka might win Player of 248 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,680 Speaker 3: the Year and the MVP will go to the quarterback. 249 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 3: But it is, you know a little bit of a 250 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 3: sneaky down here to the you know player of the 251 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 3: Week thing. Sneaky that like last year Josh Allen and 252 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson had like fifty total touchdowns and they were 253 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 3: the nominees for MVP. You know, this isn't Stafford and 254 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 3: Drake aren't quite having those types of seasons. But it's 255 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 3: maybe that's just maybe the league is down. I don't know, 256 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 3: maybe even like. 257 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:31,239 Speaker 4: Looking back through the AFC Offensive Players a Week answer, 258 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 4: it's like Josh Allen, Lamar, like those guys have cleaned 259 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 4: up that award since like twenty twenty. It's like two 260 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 4: three of them every single year. 261 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 5: Yea. 262 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 4: So it's it's it's just a sign of him, you know, 263 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,320 Speaker 4: continuing to earn that recognition that he definitely deserves. 264 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 2: Right now, all right, anything else we need to get 265 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 2: on the table.

They 291 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 5: did beat the Raiders ten to seven. 292 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,199 Speaker 2: I know it was. 293 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 5: It was a Thursday night game, which I think always 294 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 5: as a mitigating factor, but they did only win that 295 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 5: game tend to. 296 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 3: And their offense was they kind of had bo Nixon. 297 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 3: Hell in that game he had they had like ten 298 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 3: first downs offense defense, but very hard, right, like like 299 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 3: shutting down, you know, in order. 300 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 2: To follow the rules. I do understand that too far, 301 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 2: I do, you know, in order to follow the rules, 302 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 2: I do understand that the Raiders had to make all 303 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 2: the tickets available just to Broncos fans for this game. 304 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 2: I'll make it as much a home game for the 305 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:45,839 Speaker 2: Broncos as possible. Yeah, it's unbelievable, really, yeah, yeah. 306 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 1: It feels like on the road. 307 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,199 Speaker 4: Yeah, really trying to you know, challenge them maybe a 308 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 4: little bit for I don't know what. 309 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 5: I'll be interested in that game for the number one 310 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 5: seed obviously. 311 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 3: Bill's Bengals. 312 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 5: Bill's Bengals is a is a game because I think 313 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 5: there's a chance that Cincinnati gets it going like they 314 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,959 Speaker 5: did around this time last year, and it's probably too little, 315 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 5: too late for them. But if they do and then 316 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 5: they beat Buffalo, you know, it's it's over. I mean, 317 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 5: the division's over. I mean not officially, but yeah, I 318 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 5: know practically, well. 319 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:16,680 Speaker 3: I mean it's if they had Patriots beat the Bills 320 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 3: and anyway. 321 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 2: It's over. 322 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 3: If the Patriots win the game, if the Bills lose 323 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 3: to the Bengals, like they have to start thinking about 324 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 3: the playoffs, let alone winning the division. So you know 325 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 3: that that's definitely in play. You know, the AFC is 326 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 3: not exactly top heavy this year, but there's a lot 327 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 3: of teams that are like scrunched up in that like 328 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 3: five to ten range right now, that are all like, 329 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 3: you know, eight and four, seven and five, you know, 330 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 3: right in that range. But Bills Bengals for obvious reasons, 331 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 3: like obviously the Patriots are going to play the Bills 332 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 3: the next week and all that. But also I really 333 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 3: think the Bengals have a puncher's chance in that game. 334 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 3: You know, their defense is starting to play a lot better. 335 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 3: Burrows back. If the team that played the Ravens on 336 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 3: Thanksgiving plays Bills on Sunday, I think they might win. 337 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 5: Is very limited offensively right now with all the guys 338 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 5: that they're missing. I don't know who's coming back. Maybe 339 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 5: Kincaid and Dawkins and Brown, all these guys. 340 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 3: Like Dawkes will probably be back because he's just a 341 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 3: concussion protocol, but I don't know about uh Brown because 342 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 3: that that injury looked bad. 343 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 5: I mean the first third down of the game against 344 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 5: Pittsburgh for Buffalo, Josh Allen's with the ball of Brandon Cooks, 345 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 5: who's been on the team for twenty minutes. Yeah, like 346 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 5: they're in a they're not Evan's right, they're not guaranteed 347 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 5: to make the playoffs. 348 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 4: There's a bit of them, man, that is I mean, 349 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 4: it's such it's you get on one thing. Sometimes it 350 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 4: feel like it because you put the cart before the 351 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 4: horse and you say, oh, they can't throw the ball 352 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 4: down the field, but like they really can't throw the 353 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 4: ball down the field, like they just think everything is underneath, 354 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 4: and you can tell that it's just different. They're struggling 355 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 4: and that when they signed Cooks that was like that 356 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 4: makes total sense. 357 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 8: That's it. 358 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 5: I mean it's it's a good signing, but it just 359 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 5: speaks to how desperate. 360 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 3: This and gave Davis too, just got Davis before. 361 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 5: He's also getting targeted, yeah, you know, reasonably frequently. 362 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean outside of Shakir, they they just don't 363 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 3: really have anything consistent. And I think that like you 364 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 3: see the difference between a team like the Patriots that's 365 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 3: been building since training camp and how they have the 366 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 3: same core group of guys with around Drake since training 367 00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 3: camp and how advanced they can get from a passing 368 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 3: game perspective. And then you watch Buffalo and it's like 369 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 3: the same five plays because they only they Brandon Cooks 370 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 3: only knows five plays. So, like, you know, it's not 371 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 3: like any knock on their talent necessarily, it's just like 372 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 3: they literally haven't had enough time on task to build 373 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 3: an offense. 374 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 5: Like, I wouldn't dismiss their chances. You know, with all 375 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 5: that said and their inability to throw the ball downfield 376 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 5: and I think it was the lowest you know, average 377 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 5: depth of target of his career. From that game, they 378 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 5: still blew out a team at home. 379 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, they blew. 380 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 5: Out Pittsburgh, and Pittsburgh that game wasn't competitive. So even 381 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 5: with all of that going wrong, they still found a 382 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 5: way to win a game that they had to win. 383 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 5: So I wouldn't dismiss their chances. 384 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 2: The other game I'll be interested is at one o'clock 385 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 2: Indian Jackson. 386 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 4: I was just gonna say that one Fred, Yeah, I mean, 387 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 4: is Indy bounced back? 388 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 2: Where are they right now? 389 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,440 Speaker 4: You've got a Jacksonville team that's been up and down, 390 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 4: but surgeon. 391 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 1: A little bit. 392 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 4: And I mean they have a real chance to get 393 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 4: back on top of that. 394 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:14,960 Speaker 5: I've seen Jacksonville a little bit and I can't think. 395 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 3: Of a team can't put my finger on that team. 396 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:20,679 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean maybe Mike's Carolina Panthers, But I can't 397 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 5: think of a team that looks better and worse at 398 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,639 Speaker 5: different times. They've taken Maybe Carolina. 399 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,679 Speaker 3: They've taken the game kind of out at Trevor Lawrence's hands. 400 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:30,200 Speaker 3: Like they're run first offense. 401 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:30,400 Speaker 9: Now. 402 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 3: Absolutely, their run game is good. 403 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 5: And there are times that Lawrence just like gets in 404 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,439 Speaker 5: a groove and it's like that's the number one and 405 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 5: then you watch them and he's like wildly inaccurate and 406 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 5: Liam Cohen yelling at him on the sideline and. 407 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 3: It's a bizarre It's it's a bizarre team. And like 408 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 3: Brian Thomas has kind of had a down year, Travis 409 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 3: Hunters hurt, so they're not even like getting the production 410 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 3: out of those guys that you were expecting. And they're 411 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 3: eight and four. 412 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 5: You know who's been big for him is the acquisition 413 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 5: of Jacobe Myers. Yeah, he's played well for him and 414 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 5: the kid Parker Washington. 415 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 2: Mister Myers, how you doing? He doesn't listen. 416 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 5: Probably doesn't. 417 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 3: Well, if we played the Jaguars in the playoffs, yeah, yeah, 418 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 3: he'll be back, even Texans at Chiefs. 419 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 2: The eight twenty games some night, I mean that's a 420 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 2: defense against and the Thursday night games Agown to Detroit Dallas. 421 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, I just those schedules. I know, I don't want 422 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 5: to go down that rabbit hole that. 423 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:22,640 Speaker 2: We did yesterday. 424 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 5: But Detroit Thursday night against Dallas, like it's amazing. 425 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I guess you'd rather do that, you know, 426 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 2: than that. 427 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,880 Speaker 3: A few years ago, like towards the end of Thursday Thursday. Yeah, 428 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 3: I think three in a row, three prime time games 429 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 3: in a row, and it was like one of them 430 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,360 Speaker 3: was like Thursday Thursday. Yeah. 431 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,959 Speaker 2: So so some good games, some real stinkers, you know, 432 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 2: Tennessee Cleveland.

There you go, sacks taken. 437 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 3: I think he only needs like three. 438 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:13,120 Speaker 4: Right, what is the record, like twenty twenty three something 439 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:13,440 Speaker 4: like that. 440 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's something like that.

And I've done some research 604 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 11: into you know, football, both football especially never took off 605 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 11: at Boston before the Patriots and the reason those three 606 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 11: NFL teams and there was actually a couple of AFL 607 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 11: teams too mixed in there. The reason they didn't stick. 608 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 11: And even then after the Patriots came and it took 609 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 11: a little while, even after they moved to Foxborough's shadow 610 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,679 Speaker 11: of the Bruins and the Sock, there was really kind 611 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 11: of a saturation point we reached here with kind of 612 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 11: damp in the markets for both football even you know, 613 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:37,160 Speaker 11: even pro basketball didn't take root in Boston really until 614 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,719 Speaker 11: you couldn't ignore the Celtics anymore. And of course if 615 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 11: you like both football, you always had the Giants. But 616 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 11: even beyond that, going back to the thirties, you had 617 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 11: good football being played here on Saturday, usually one school, 618 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 11: whether it was b C. Harbord, Northeastern, even Paul and 619 00:27:54,000 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 11: my Terriers ranked sometimes. Yeah. Well, and there are other 620 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 11: factors like this thing the Globe had for pro football 621 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 11: in the thirties and forties. But I think it's between 622 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 11: the Red Sox, the Bruins and Eastern college football. There 623 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 11: just wasn't much need for a pro football team here 624 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 11: until you got to the late fifties, when you know, 625 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 11: the NFL really took off. Anyway, That's that's how I. 626 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 2: Had Thank you very much, all right, thanks Dan. I'm 627 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 2: not sure the point of that, but no, I mean, 628 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,880 Speaker 2: you look at places like Cleveland, all right, they love 629 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 2: their Browns, the Browns they used to be good before 630 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 2: the NFL. But the reason why those fans are so 631 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 2: hard it's a tradition that your father brought you into 632 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 2: and Boston never really had that tradition except for the 633 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 2: Red Sox, you know, and that's you know, the Patriots 634 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 2: weren't even on every Sunday because they were blacked out, 635 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 2: and so everybody watched Giants game and everybody became Giants fans. 636 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 2: You didn't have those traditions in other sports like you 637 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 2: do in Ohio in Texas. But once they started getting good, 638 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 2: like in the seventies, they built hockey rinks because of 639 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 2: Bobby Orr and the Bruins, yep. And then Bird came 640 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 2: around in the eighties. And now things have changed because 641 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 2: we've had a history of some good, good teams. But 642 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 2: back then, like like he's right, there was really no 643 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 2: need for a pro sports interest because there wasn't a 644 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 2: tradition like your dad wasn't watching, so you didn't watch. 645 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 3: Well, it's really the Celtics that what was your guy 646 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 3: Bob Cooseys them drafting Bob Coozy and him being a 647 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 3: Holy Cross guy and you know, being a local kid 648 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 3: like him, and Bill Sharmon like basically put the Celtics 649 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 3: on the map, and then they got Bill Russell and 650 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 3: then it really took off in the sixties. But it 651 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 3: was really the fact that Kozi was a local kid 652 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 3: and went to holy Cross and holy Cross is a 653 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 3: wagon back then in basketball. And then you know, he 654 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 3: went to the Celtics and and that was kind of 655 00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 3: what started the Celtics history. I've watched like way too 656 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 3: many Celtics documents. 657 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 5: But yeah, that's right. 658 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 3: That was pretty much what the Celtics would happen. And 659 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 3: then obviously Bill Russell comes and they turned into the 660 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 3: best team of the sixties. 661 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 4: And yeah, it's interesting because that's what happened with the 662 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 4: Patriots and Brady like, even though they had some success 663 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 4: the Patriots seventy six, seventy eight, eighty five, it was 664 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 4: isolated and it wasn't a star superstar players. I mean, 665 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 4: they had some superstars, but you know, like you said, 666 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 4: you're pointing out the players like Bobby Yore and Koozi 667 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 4: and Russell, and it seems like you really need those 668 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 4: superstar players and some sustained success to really get the 669 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 4: Claws in fans. 670 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 13: Yeah. 671 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 2: And I think the other problem with the Patriots was, 672 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 2: like you said, sustained, but the ownership was always never 673 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 2: solid and people really didn't like, am I really going 674 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 2: to get behind this team? Yeah? And then when Robert 675 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 2: when they brought in parcels in ninety three that really helped, 676 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 2: and then Kraft bought it local guy, so people are like, Okay, 677 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 2: I'll buy those season tickets. They're not going anywhere, let's 678 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 2: support them now, and you know the rest is history. 679 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 4: As they said, I mean, Robert gets so much mileage 680 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 4: out of being a former season ticket holder, Like just that, 681 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 4: I think, just make connect with the real fans, and 682 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 4: especially like you said, I was like the crappy fan 683 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 4: experience that everybody had in the eighties, I think was 684 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 4: for me like, well, this guy knows what it's like 685 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 4: to sit on those ice coool bleachers and you know 686 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 4: all that, and he has the fans in mind when 687 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 4: he's starting to build the team, so he's it's been 688 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 4: such a key part of his ownership. 689 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 2: I feel like yep. Steve writes in Hey Fred, not 690 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 2: difficult to notice that you read emails from the same 691 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 2: people all the time. Sick of listening to the same 692 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 2: moron's opinions. Mix it up a little. I don't have 693 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 2: the memory Paul does or the talent you induce do, 694 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 2: but trust me, I could give you all a run 695 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 2: for your money talking sports. Here's an idea one hour 696 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 2: a week. You should have a guest fan appear on 697 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 2: the show, battling Paul for a Patriot's trivia show. Alex 698 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 2: could host lots of fun Steve in the North Country. 699 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 2: I try it, no, I honestly, I try to mix 700 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 2: it up. But if the email's not good, I'm not 701 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 2: going to read it, just because it's somebody I haven't 702 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 2: read an email from. 703 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 13: You know. 704 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,120 Speaker 2: So there's certain people I guess that seem to know 705 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 2: what to write that gets my interest. I also like 706 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 2: during the show, if we're having a conversation, I try 707 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 2: to scan if someone's emailing in about what we're talking about. 708 00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 2: I try to get that in there. But yeah, I 709 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 2: try to get new people in. But write something good 710 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 2: and I'll read it with good grammar. 711 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 3: It's really hard. 712 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 5: It's really hard to do it. 713 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 3: It's really hard to host the show and mondumails emails 714 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 3: at the same time. 715 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 2: Well, if it's just two of us, I couldn't do it. 716 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:41,840 Speaker 2: Be really hard. 717 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 5: But I can. 718 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 2: While you guys are talking, I can be scanned. 719 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 5: That's what I always tease you. When we're talking about 720 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 5: something and they just say, whatever it is that we 721 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 5: just talked about, and I make fun of you. But 722 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 5: I know why you didn't hear it. It's because you're 723 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 5: reading four or five emails trying to figure out what's 724 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 5: relevant to our conversation, right, I think not an easy 725 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 5: thing to let me. 726 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 1: Think we've all done both these roles. 727 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 4: But it's like, it's so different than to just sit 728 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 4: here and be like, yeah, see us up, Fred, what 729 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 4: do you got? 730 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 1: You know, rather than like, all right, I gotta get 731 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 1: the phones. 732 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 4: I gotta make sure there's no Dalai and then all 733 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 4: of a sudden there's dead air and. 734 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 5: You're like, it's it's not as fun. 735 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,479 Speaker 2: So Steve, it's not. I'm not trying to favor anyone, 736 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 2: just so you know. It's just it's just the way 737 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 2: it is. Herms in DC, what's up? 738 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 11: Herm Hey, what's going on? 739 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 13: Gentlemen? 740 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 2: How you doing all right? Hearm? 741 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 13: So two quick questions. 742 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:33,479 Speaker 14: But before I asked my questions, I did want to 743 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 14: give you guys some props, right, because I think nowadays 744 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 14: with sports content is people just. 745 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 11: They make it obvious, right and just chase it clicks 746 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 11: and just. 747 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 13: Saying outrageous stuff. 748 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 3: I never do that. 749 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 14: Please, please do not change the tecreator show just stated 750 00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 14: where you are, and just keep them what you're doing. 751 00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 14: The first question is, and I Apolgast talk about it 752 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 14: in a show, but why is it that Robert Kraft 753 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 14: is now getting I guess close to being more into 754 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 14: the Hall of Fame? I mean he had what tension, 755 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:11,719 Speaker 14: bold appearances. 756 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 13: It wasn't say. 757 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:15,360 Speaker 2: Well, he's come close before. 758 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 14: Okay, I guess that's moves to me done. 759 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:22,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, he's come close before. They just keep changing 760 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:25,320 Speaker 2: the criteria and how they're doing it. And for a 761 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 2: while he had no chance because they mixed in coaches 762 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 2: would seem you know, so it was all mixed up. 763 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 2: Now they've separated again, so now he's got a you know, 764 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 2: a chance to get in again. But I agree herm 765 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 2: when you look at the other owners that have gone in, 766 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:43,120 Speaker 2: he should have been long before this, Pat Bowling, I mean, 767 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,920 Speaker 2: come on, yeah, it's it is And I don't know, 768 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 2: but hopefully he gets in this time. 769 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 14: Second quick question, and obviously I don't want to keep 770 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 14: bragging on Tom Kurrm, but if you got to help 771 00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 14: me understand why he would have traded down from picking 772 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 14: Drake freaking May intellect. 773 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:08,960 Speaker 2: J J. 774 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 14: McCarthy, Minnesota, Yeahcary nine and that goes back to my 775 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:19,320 Speaker 14: point I made earlier right chasing, just like clicks and 776 00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 14: takes right. That's one of the reasons why I got a. 777 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 2: Chance to amend that. 778 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:28,840 Speaker 3: Well, I would just say, and I didn't agree with 779 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:30,359 Speaker 3: him at the time. I don't agree with him now, 780 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:34,360 Speaker 3: but the logic behind it totally sounds there. It was 781 00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 3: an argument that we were having at a time like 782 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 3: the Patriots had a ton of holes on their roster. 783 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 3: They needed a lot of different things. So if you 784 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:45,880 Speaker 3: could have added like two first round picks and the 785 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,759 Speaker 3: eighth overall pick and then just drafted JJ McCarthy or 786 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 3: Pennix or something like that and get the capital on 787 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 3: top of it, I wouldn't have done it, But I 788 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,280 Speaker 3: it wasn't totally would. 789 00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 5: Have done it because I didn't really like JJ McCarthy 790 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 5: right exactly. But if JJ McCarthy was what he was 791 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,800 Speaker 5: supposed to be, like kind of like a Tom Brady 792 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 5: NFL ready guy who played for Harbaugh in Michigan and 793 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:13,280 Speaker 5: it has a pro background, you know, then it's an argument. 794 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 5: It's a discussion. I liked Drake May from the start, 795 00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:19,600 Speaker 5: so I could be like Evan and and Mike and 796 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 5: we could the three of us could go around and 797 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:23,880 Speaker 5: you didn't like we could wait, Yeah, we could wait 798 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 5: about Drake and everybody's face and safe. 799 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 2: We were right, you were right. 800 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 5: No, that's not right. 801 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 2: At the time, I can understand the argument. Absolutely, he's 802 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:34,160 Speaker 2: still saying that he would have done that. No, okay, 803 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 2: that's all I care about. No, No, and I mean it's. 804 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,360 Speaker 3: And it's worth saying. At the beginning of the season, 805 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:39,880 Speaker 3: he did say he would take JJ. 806 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 15: After the Raiders game, After the after the first game, 807 00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 15: when McCarthy was terrible the whole night and then had 808 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,719 Speaker 15: a great fourth quarter, everybody started saying, well, this is 809 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:51,799 Speaker 15: the kind of stuff that McCarthy showed, and blah blah 810 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:52,359 Speaker 15: blah blah blah. 811 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 5: And no, obviously he hasn't done that since, and he's 812 00:36:54,600 --> 00:37:00,040 Speaker 5: been hurt. His availabilities is in question. I just I 813 00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 5: think too often we look at these now. Is Drake 814 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 5: made the MVP candidate, How could anybody have thought about 815 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:09,719 Speaker 5: trading down from him? I think it was a rational 816 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:13,000 Speaker 5: option at that time. At the time, the guy who's 817 00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 5: never played a snap, I didn't I didn't want to 818 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:18,319 Speaker 5: trade down. Evan didn't want to trade down. Mike didn't 819 00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:20,719 Speaker 5: want to trade down. We all liked Drake Man. 820 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 3: And most importantly neither de Delliot Wolf and Right And 821 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,160 Speaker 3: for all the things that went wrong in the twenty 822 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,400 Speaker 3: twenty four season, I don't think he ever wavered from 823 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,239 Speaker 3: from sticking and picking Drake May. 824 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:34,840 Speaker 5: And I think that it's easy to sit there and say, 825 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 5: and my boys do it all the time, like we 826 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:38,759 Speaker 5: all was an easy call. He was that they you know, 827 00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 5: the third quarterback on the board was available at number three, 828 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 5: you take them. And I would agree with the identify 829 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 5: the identification of May, I would agree with that was 830 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,760 Speaker 5: kind of easy and fell in his lap. The question 831 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,120 Speaker 5: would have been if May had gone in the top two, 832 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:55,880 Speaker 5: would he have taken one of the other two or not? Right, 833 00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 5: But there is definitely a question that Evan just mapped out, 834 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:04,760 Speaker 5: are you better off taking uh, you know, multiple draft 835 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:08,319 Speaker 5: picks and taking one of the other quarterbacks? You know, 836 00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:10,719 Speaker 5: what would the Patriots record be if it was if 837 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 5: it was bow knicks? 838 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 13: Oh? 839 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:16,880 Speaker 5: And no, I think I think you can make an 840 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 5: argument that you you would have won you know, seven 841 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:23,240 Speaker 5: or eight games with bow Knicks. I mean the rosters 842 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 5: not well. All apologies to our Denver listeners. Denver has 843 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 5: also one of the easiest schedules in football, which is 844 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 5: the point I was trying to make yesterday. There's a 845 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 5: reason that those teams win so many games. When you 846 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:40,320 Speaker 5: play against a lot of middling teams to bad teams, 847 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 5: you're gonna win more often than not if you play 848 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 5: with good coaching and uh, you know, you find a 849 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,120 Speaker 5: way to take advantage of bad football. 850 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:52,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I mean wrong opinions. 851 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,480 Speaker 4: Now that there were guys like Orlofsky who weren't as 852 00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 4: high on May and thought he was going to need 853 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 4: time to develop. And if he really was a guy 854 00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:00,919 Speaker 4: that was going to need two years to develop, and 855 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:03,720 Speaker 4: I'm hearing that, then I'm seriously considering. 856 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,239 Speaker 5: And Tom Current in particular, again not to you know, 857 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:08,840 Speaker 5: like HERM said, not to make this a Tom Current 858 00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:11,120 Speaker 5: bashing session, because I think Tom does a really good job. 859 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 5: Plus I'm a little afraid of him, and I don't 860 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 5: want the head buddy. But with Tom, like he was 861 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 5: a big advocate of they're not ready to take a quarterback. 862 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 5: The roster's not ready, not talented enough around him to 863 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:28,280 Speaker 5: take a quarterback, which I don't another argument that friend, 864 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:32,959 Speaker 5: and I think all of us were against, but there's 865 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:35,320 Speaker 5: logic to that argument. It doesn't mean just because we 866 00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:37,279 Speaker 5: don't agree with it doesn't make it wrong. It's a 867 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 5: different way of looking at it. I feel like the 868 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,600 Speaker 5: quarterback is the hardest thing to get, it's wrong, and 869 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 5: when you have an opportunity to get it like you 870 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:48,920 Speaker 5: did in that class, I think passing up one of 871 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:52,880 Speaker 5: those six guys, to me, would have been reckless. To 872 00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 5: draft Marvin Harrison junr, which a lot of people wanted 873 00:39:56,520 --> 00:40:00,760 Speaker 5: to do. You know, Joe Alt another one tremendous player, 874 00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:04,320 Speaker 5: Joe Walt, Yeah, right, you know a lot of people 875 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 5: wanted a lot of people do the draft before the 876 00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:09,520 Speaker 5: quarterback right where you drafted, draft the players, then get 877 00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 5: the quarterback later. 878 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 3: Right, draft Joe Wall, draft this guy, and then in 879 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:14,400 Speaker 3: twenty twenty five, draft the quarterback. 880 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:16,280 Speaker 5: And I think there's a lot of examples of teams 881 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:17,719 Speaker 5: that have tried to do it that way that are 882 00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:18,800 Speaker 5: still looking for the quarterback. 883 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:20,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm not saying this to like Victory Lap, 884 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,840 Speaker 3: but I think that the it was very clear to 885 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:27,840 Speaker 3: a lot of people that that quarterback class was really, 886 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 3: really good, and you don't get that every year where 887 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:35,400 Speaker 3: there's three legitimate Like I think that Drake May, Jayden Daniels, 888 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,960 Speaker 3: and Caleb would have gone number one overall if they 889 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,839 Speaker 3: were in separate drafts, right, Like, if they each were 890 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 3: in three separate drafts, they're probably all three of them 891 00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:48,319 Speaker 3: were number one overall pick caliber prospects. And we see that, 892 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:51,000 Speaker 3: you know, last year, I didn't. It wasn't really a 893 00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:53,440 Speaker 3: you know, cam Ward goes one overall, but cam Moore 894 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:55,440 Speaker 3: would have been the fourth rated quarterback out of those 895 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:58,600 Speaker 3: three guys. So when you had that opportunity, you just 896 00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:01,120 Speaker 3: you had to take it. And I think that was 897 00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 3: really the consensus that in the end. But that's why 898 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 3: I want him to win MVP so bad guys much 899 00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:08,320 Speaker 3: as I want him to win a Super Bowl too. 900 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:11,600 Speaker 3: Like when you when you evaluate the player, you know 901 00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:14,840 Speaker 3: he's good. There wasn't a it wasn't one hundred percent 902 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 3: for everybody that not everybody thought that he was good, 903 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:19,880 Speaker 3: and then he goes and wins an MVP in his 904 00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:21,720 Speaker 3: second season, Like that's. 905 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, all the tools. 906 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:24,880 Speaker 4: I mean, he had all the tools, you know, and 907 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 4: there were some inconsistencies in his game, and I just 908 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 4: think he deserves so much credit for cleaning that stuff 909 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:31,960 Speaker 4: up and you know, not having those game changing turnovers 910 00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:33,960 Speaker 4: that the brain farts, and again going back to the 911 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,360 Speaker 4: beginning of the season and was like is he progressing? 912 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:38,360 Speaker 4: But then all of a sudden after that loss to 913 00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:40,320 Speaker 4: to you know, the week three. 914 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:44,080 Speaker 3: Even fixing the sacks, Like even though the sack. 915 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:46,399 Speaker 5: Rate is going down, it's definitely gone down. 916 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:48,920 Speaker 3: So like now, like first it was turnovers, he has 917 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,359 Speaker 3: the Pittsburgh game, gets that out of his system. Then 918 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 3: we make a big deal for a couple of weeks 919 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:55,160 Speaker 3: about how many sacks he's taking, and now all of 920 00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 3: a sudden it's been like one or two the last 921 00:41:57,480 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 3: like two or. 922 00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:00,759 Speaker 2: Three Rember, they keeping the eyes downfield game. Yeah. 923 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:02,799 Speaker 4: Well, I mean early in the season too. I think 924 00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 4: I remember watching J. T. O'Sullivan and just you know, 925 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 4: talking about his pocket awareness and movement, and I remember 926 00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 4: in the early part of this season thinking, is he 927 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 4: can be able to get this right? You know, it's 928 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 4: it's not something that's easy. I just some part of 929 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 4: it feels innate to me. I think Brady was innate 930 00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:20,200 Speaker 4: on just knowing where one little step to the left. 931 00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:22,359 Speaker 4: And I'm sure we talked about it on the show, 932 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:25,000 Speaker 4: but that to me it's just been remarkable, the stepping 933 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:26,799 Speaker 4: up in the pocket, the little step to the left 934 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:28,879 Speaker 4: and then still firing it, you know, and you still 935 00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 4: see moments of little inconsistent but it's not game changing inconsistency. 936 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:34,360 Speaker 4: It's like, oh he had a guy or you know, 937 00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:36,840 Speaker 4: if he just stopped, you know, but just so small. 938 00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:38,359 Speaker 1: It's it's it's hard to even pick. 939 00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:41,360 Speaker 2: The economy of his footwork compared to when he first started, 940 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,520 Speaker 2: i mean, the number of steps he has to take 941 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:47,160 Speaker 2: to get out of trouble and just make that move, 942 00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:49,200 Speaker 2: compared to last year, where you know. 943 00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:51,520 Speaker 4: Remember last year we talked about all the time his footwork. 944 00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:53,360 Speaker 4: That was like, i mean a weekly topic on the 945 00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:54,920 Speaker 4: Drake May footwork. 946 00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:56,799 Speaker 3: You know, just he would drift in the pressure a lot. 947 00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, even drifting the pressure that was the quote. 948 00:42:58,960 --> 00:42:59,919 Speaker 5: That was the Yeah. 949 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:02,880 Speaker 3: Now he like he would hitch up into the pocket 950 00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 3: too much, so he'd be hitchit chit chit right, is 951 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:09,320 Speaker 3: somebody's lap right. And now he's just you know, really 952 00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:12,120 Speaker 3: good at staying back in the pocket. And when you 953 00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,040 Speaker 3: have that kind of arm talent, you don't need to 954 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:17,879 Speaker 3: like get all the momentum moving forward. You can sit 955 00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 3: back a little bit, and he's got that rip through 956 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,239 Speaker 3: move now at the ball that is like kind of 957 00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:23,719 Speaker 3: become his sickness, skipping. 958 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 1: Ripe, skipping ripe. 959 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,360 Speaker 5: I like that came up with that, right, and I 960 00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:30,600 Speaker 5: think it perfectly describes what he does. 961 00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:31,000 Speaker 13: He did it. 962 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:34,280 Speaker 5: He did it in the Cincinnati game for Hunter Henry's stay. 963 00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:34,680 Speaker 16: Yeah. 964 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,680 Speaker 5: One one quick thing, you know, talking about the footwork, 965 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:42,640 Speaker 5: Go back and look at week one, his first touchdown 966 00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:45,880 Speaker 5: pass of the season to to Mario Douglas in the 967 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 5: end zone and watch his footwork on that play and 968 00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,719 Speaker 5: see how bad it is. Yeah, and then watch some 969 00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:56,240 Speaker 5: of the throws that he's made since. Like something changed, 970 00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:57,520 Speaker 5: he just got it. 971 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 2: Evan, will you down playing playing at Denver? How important 972 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:04,320 Speaker 2: it is? I never do that. Oh now, Neil and 973 00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:08,120 Speaker 2: Utah thinks you were. Evan is underestimating the impact of 974 00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:11,320 Speaker 2: playing at altitude without proper acclimatization. 975 00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:13,400 Speaker 3: I think the Patriots should practice on the top of 976 00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:14,280 Speaker 3: Mount Washington. 977 00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty cool, not high enough and the deafening crowd noise. 978 00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:23,000 Speaker 2: Alex tried to set him straight with the home slash 979 00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:26,080 Speaker 2: road splits, but sounds like Evan is not convinced. I'm 980 00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 2: not talking about our history there. My first Denver nightmare 981 00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:31,360 Speaker 2: was eighty four to two per Flumbo. I'm just looking 982 00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:34,960 Speaker 2: at six fact loss. I'm just looking at facts along 983 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:37,440 Speaker 2: with Seattle that is the loudest stadium in the league. 984 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:42,880 Speaker 2: Measurable fact, no incorrect, just forcing fact, just forcing silent 985 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:45,719 Speaker 2: counts is a victory for the Denver pass rush, and 986 00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:48,359 Speaker 2: they're almost guaranteed a couple of false starts each game. 987 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:52,280 Speaker 2: And while I understand Evan's confidence and Vrabel to prepare 988 00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 2: the team, Vrabel can't change the baron metric pressure. And 989 00:44:56,400 --> 00:45:00,120 Speaker 2: you can't acclimatize with an extra day at altitude. For 990 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:05,399 Speaker 2: acclimatization takes weeks, not a day or two. Crowd noise 991 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:10,560 Speaker 2: like crowd noise and altitude measurable advantages. Denver's talent doesn't 992 00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 2: scare me, but that environment does. 993 00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:14,600 Speaker 3: Okay, So here here's here's a couple of things, and 994 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:16,719 Speaker 3: I guess we're gonna do this, So we'll do it, okay. 995 00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:17,319 Speaker 2: Uh. 996 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:20,880 Speaker 3: What I was trying to talk to Alex about, because 997 00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:23,440 Speaker 3: you know he he's with the emailer, and what I 998 00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:26,879 Speaker 3: was trying to tell Alex was like, maybe you guys 999 00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 3: disagree like he did, is Denver's record at home really 1000 00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:35,479 Speaker 3: good because Denver's had some really good runs as a team. 1001 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:38,400 Speaker 3: Or is it really good because they're they play at 1002 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:42,560 Speaker 3: five and eighty feet? Like were they hard to play 1003 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 3: because John Elway was their quarterback and Peyton Manning was 1004 00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 3: their quarterback for a period of time? 1005 00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:53,160 Speaker 5: Or were about or were they? And maybe Danny canell 1006 00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:57,719 Speaker 5: is at your larger point because when you look at 1007 00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:00,799 Speaker 5: like the Paige the home records in the NFL since 1008 00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:03,839 Speaker 5: two thousand, the New England Patriots have the number one 1009 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 5: record in the league since two thousand because Tom Brady 1010 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:07,279 Speaker 5: played here for twenty years. 1011 00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:10,680 Speaker 3: I love ji Lett Stadium. Is it this great home 1012 00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:11,480 Speaker 3: field advantage? 1013 00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:12,719 Speaker 5: Not a tough place to play? 1014 00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:15,880 Speaker 3: Right, It's just because the team was really good? And me, 1015 00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 3: I'm not saying that I necessarily like, I'm not trying 1016 00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:22,640 Speaker 3: to say that it has zero impact. I'm just saying, 1017 00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:26,880 Speaker 3: is this like it's a correlation versus causation thing, Like 1018 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:30,600 Speaker 3: is it hard to play in Denver because of the altitude? 1019 00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:33,160 Speaker 3: Or is it hard to play in Denver because Denver's 1020 00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:35,680 Speaker 3: had some good teams and a great quarterbacks. 1021 00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:39,200 Speaker 5: I would agree with your Lodger point, And I think 1022 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:41,440 Speaker 5: Belichick used to spout that a lot, like, you know, 1023 00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 5: what makes them tough to play? There is and he 1024 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:46,000 Speaker 5: would rattle off the names at the time. 1025 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:46,600 Speaker 2: Whatever they were. 1026 00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:52,000 Speaker 5: I would say that, would you admit that Denver is 1027 00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:54,440 Speaker 5: a you know, maybe they're a good team right now? 1028 00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:57,480 Speaker 5: Like I'm not calling them great, I'm just saying, you know, 1029 00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:00,200 Speaker 5: they've won a lot of games, they're good. So I 1030 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:04,279 Speaker 5: do think that that environment and that oddity of their 1031 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:07,080 Speaker 5: altitude makes them a little better in that building. 1032 00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:07,719 Speaker 2: It helps. 1033 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:10,600 Speaker 3: I would also it makes a good team, maybe very good. 1034 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:12,759 Speaker 3: The other thing that I would just say, like to me, 1035 00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:19,840 Speaker 3: altitude is an element. Right, It's like coming here in 1036 00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:24,239 Speaker 3: January and it's snowing Miami early in the season. It's 1037 00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:27,880 Speaker 3: Miami early in the season, so to me, and this 1038 00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:32,279 Speaker 3: happened for twenty years where a Chargers team would come 1039 00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:36,120 Speaker 3: here and they'd freeze their butts off. What was is 1040 00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:38,640 Speaker 3: they couldn't play in the col So if the Patriots 1041 00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:41,440 Speaker 3: go to Denver and they lose and the excuse is 1042 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:44,120 Speaker 3: that they couldn't breathe because of the altitude, I'm going 1043 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:46,520 Speaker 3: to say that's an excuse. Oh yeah, I don't right 1044 00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 3: like that, that's not, but it's a reason. 1045 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:50,520 Speaker 2: But it is just a little thing in their favor. 1046 00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:53,120 Speaker 2: I mean, like, sure, you know Miami wears white when 1047 00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:54,799 Speaker 2: they play down there because of the sun. 1048 00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:56,960 Speaker 5: Sam, is that what you do that? 1049 00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:58,840 Speaker 2: Because okay, why not do it? 1050 00:47:59,040 --> 00:47:59,360 Speaker 3: Exactly? 1051 00:47:59,400 --> 00:47:59,640 Speaker 11: Why not? 1052 00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:03,000 Speaker 3: But my point is that it's nothing more than just that. Yeah, right, 1053 00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:07,120 Speaker 3: you know, it's Miami's heat in September, it's our winters. 1054 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,000 Speaker 3: It's Buffalo's wind in winter, right, like it's not. 1055 00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:13,040 Speaker 5: It's an element. Winter has helped us win even in 1056 00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:16,040 Speaker 5: the heart of like like the Brady dominance. 1057 00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:19,080 Speaker 4: Putting, the putting the temperature up, you know, like that 1058 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:23,960 Speaker 4: stuff like ac game against Peyton Manning when he's you know, 1059 00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:26,680 Speaker 4: in d coming here as a weather team was a factor. 1060 00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:28,759 Speaker 3: It's a factor. I'm just saying that. I think that 1061 00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:31,680 Speaker 3: the players in the and the the teams on the 1062 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:34,800 Speaker 3: field and who had who's better that day at football 1063 00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:38,359 Speaker 3: is more of a factor than than mile hot. 1064 00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:40,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1065 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:40,759 Speaker 3: The Patriots are. 1066 00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:43,680 Speaker 4: Three and oh in Denver since the twenty fifteen AFC 1067 00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:44,560 Speaker 4: Championship Game. 1068 00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:48,800 Speaker 5: So okay, now they both started four and seven with 1069 00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:50,200 Speaker 5: Brady and Belichick. 1070 00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:54,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, without Brady they're one and one. 1071 00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:58,640 Speaker 5: No, they're one and ow yeah, they'd they'd bed the 1072 00:48:58,719 --> 00:48:59,719 Speaker 5: Chad Ryland field goal. 1073 00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:04,000 Speaker 3: That everybody is still pissing. So that's the other element 1074 00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:05,840 Speaker 3: to this that I'm not gonna lie to you like 1075 00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:09,160 Speaker 3: I was at that game run when Bailey ZAPPI beat Denver. 1076 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:13,160 Speaker 3: Bailey Zappy can beat Denver in Denver, and he can 1077 00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:15,120 Speaker 3: and he can survive the altitude, and. 1078 00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:17,680 Speaker 5: I want to you that was a terrible Denver team 1079 00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:20,480 Speaker 5: and a terrible Patriots totally right. 1080 00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:23,840 Speaker 2: All right, we're gonna take a break.

How much talk was that going into this 1124 00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:38,000 Speaker 19: game about getting off to a fast star You just 1125 00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:40,600 Speaker 19: certainly showed a lot of energy from the beginning of 1126 00:51:40,680 --> 00:51:40,920 Speaker 19: the game. 1127 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:41,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, it was. 1128 00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:41,640 Speaker 9: It was. 1129 00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:43,360 Speaker 20: It was good to get out there and get a 1130 00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:46,840 Speaker 20: get ahead of them quick and then be able to 1131 00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:51,000 Speaker 20: play from from ahead. I mean that's always good. You know, 1132 00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:54,080 Speaker 20: Shout out to the offense, Shout out to Marcus. You 1133 00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:57,440 Speaker 20: know that that always sparks a lot of momentum. I 1134 00:51:57,520 --> 00:52:00,520 Speaker 20: think each game he's he's returned to touchdown. That sparked, 1135 00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 20: you know, offense and defense. So that's that's a big 1136 00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:08,520 Speaker 20: part of a weapon we have. So I mean, as 1137 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:10,600 Speaker 20: a defense is always either get the ball to Drake 1138 00:52:10,719 --> 00:52:14,279 Speaker 20: or get the ball to to Marcus. So you know, 1139 00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:17,640 Speaker 20: it was it was a good win, good good way 1140 00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:19,919 Speaker 20: to come out fast.

I mean we saw it out on 1143 00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:29,960 Speaker 21: the field, but even going into the locker. 1144 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:30,359 Speaker 2: Room as well. 1145 00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:33,839 Speaker 9: Yeah, for sure, he was voted captain for a reason. 1146 00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:35,520 Speaker 9: He has a voice and he uses it. 1147 00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:40,239 Speaker 20: You know, everybody, you know, we look to him, you know, 1148 00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:42,920 Speaker 20: especially in the secondary, we're kind of all, you know, 1149 00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:46,320 Speaker 20: we're real close in the secondary.

There was personal fall in 1165 00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:34,680 Speaker 22: the giants still on the sideline.

What's your response there? 1280 00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:27,480 Speaker 2: You go, I think I would do it. 1281 00:59:27,680 --> 00:59:31,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, why can't I answer because I'm caring that 1282 00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:32,720 Speaker 3: you know too much? 1283 00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:36,440 Speaker 16: Somehow he's managed to cover every receiver on every play. 1284 00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:38,560 Speaker 13: All the time. 1285 00:59:39,320 --> 00:59:43,040 Speaker 3: Oh okay, yeah, seemed like a shot. I didn't really 1286 00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:44,760 Speaker 3: understand that, but okay, So. 1287 00:59:44,880 --> 00:59:47,560 Speaker 2: Jason, is there a sort of reason why you're asking 1288 00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:50,400 Speaker 2: because you thought that maybe we would say no, don't 1289 00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:52,560 Speaker 2: do it, or do you not think you should do it? 1290 00:59:54,320 --> 00:59:58,160 Speaker 16: Just watching more games this year, he doesn't strike me 1291 00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:02,680 Speaker 16: as a top tier thirty million dollar corner. He's making 1292 01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:05,200 Speaker 16: all the tackles, but he's also letting them catch every 1293 01:00:05,320 --> 01:00:06,800 Speaker 16: pass first every pass. 1294 01:00:08,040 --> 01:00:10,320 Speaker 13: Well, I think. 1295 01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:12,640 Speaker 23: That's that's good this year. 1296 01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:14,720 Speaker 16: I find that he has been in years prior. 1297 01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:18,280 Speaker 5: I think you've been a little I think you're being 1298 01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:20,680 Speaker 5: a little hard on Gonzales. And I would probably say 1299 01:00:20,720 --> 01:00:25,880 Speaker 5: on this show, I'm probably the least enthusiastic when it 1300 01:00:25,920 --> 01:00:28,280 Speaker 5: comes to Gonzales, and I would say he's a terrific player. 1301 01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:32,280 Speaker 5: But to say that he gives up and catch every 1302 01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:34,000 Speaker 5: time it just makes the tackle, I don't think that 1303 01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:34,720 Speaker 5: that's accurate. 1304 01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:36,960 Speaker 2: And then how many times the quarterbacks not throw his 1305 01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:38,320 Speaker 2: way because he's gone. 1306 01:00:38,720 --> 01:00:41,560 Speaker 5: I think he gets targeted really infrequently, and I have 1307 01:00:41,680 --> 01:00:43,800 Speaker 5: to think that's at least part of what Fred's talking about. 1308 01:00:44,080 --> 01:00:46,600 Speaker 5: So what if I told you that I told you 1309 01:00:47,280 --> 01:00:49,720 Speaker 5: I'm not supposed to answer, but thirty what if I 1310 01:00:49,840 --> 01:00:52,640 Speaker 5: told you that his completion rate into his coverage is 1311 01:00:52,680 --> 01:00:55,600 Speaker 5: lower this year than it was last year. Yeah. I 1312 01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:58,800 Speaker 5: don't think that they've thrown at him a tremendous amount 1313 01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:02,280 Speaker 5: this year. Yeah, you know, just volume wise. I don't 1314 01:01:02,320 --> 01:01:04,360 Speaker 5: see him around the ball a lot this year. 1315 01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:08,120 Speaker 3: I do think that the system adjustment has been an adjustment, 1316 01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:14,200 Speaker 3: and I would agree with Jason that they play a 1317 01:01:14,240 --> 01:01:16,880 Speaker 3: lot more zone now than they have in the past. 1318 01:01:17,400 --> 01:01:19,800 Speaker 3: And I don't know if he's a great. 1319 01:01:19,720 --> 01:01:23,280 Speaker 2: Okay, okay, sung a play a little devil's advocate here? 1320 01:01:23,600 --> 01:01:26,920 Speaker 2: Do you play somebody? Do you pay somebody over thirty 1321 01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:28,920 Speaker 2: million dollars based on that? 1322 01:01:29,160 --> 01:01:31,240 Speaker 5: Yeah? I would so. I think he's one of the 1323 01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:32,360 Speaker 5: best corners in football. 1324 01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:35,080 Speaker 3: I agree, and but I think that the tiny weeny 1325 01:01:35,160 --> 01:01:38,120 Speaker 3: bit concern is if this is the system that they're 1326 01:01:38,160 --> 01:01:42,040 Speaker 3: going to play, and you want zone corners that have 1327 01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:45,880 Speaker 3: instincts in ballhawking ability, that tackle, well, like, it's just 1328 01:01:46,040 --> 01:01:50,560 Speaker 3: not it's not exactly his style of play now. 1329 01:01:50,680 --> 01:01:53,320 Speaker 2: I do think he's at a tackling I think. 1330 01:01:53,320 --> 01:01:55,720 Speaker 4: To its repertoire, he seems to be catching on to 1331 01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:58,240 Speaker 4: Paul he's been really good tackling. 1332 01:01:58,480 --> 01:02:00,880 Speaker 5: This one specific tackle that he he's excellent. Ad we 1333 01:02:00,960 --> 01:02:03,280 Speaker 5: saw it Monday night when the guy catches the ball 1334 01:02:03,360 --> 01:02:05,520 Speaker 5: and he's not and no one knows he's there and boom. 1335 01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:07,480 Speaker 2: I disagree. 1336 01:02:07,640 --> 01:02:10,120 Speaker 5: Marcus Jones is a really good tackle, right, that's a 1337 01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:10,800 Speaker 5: defensive back. 1338 01:02:10,880 --> 01:02:13,760 Speaker 2: Can be true. Both can be true. They're both good tacklers. 1339 01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:16,720 Speaker 5: I don't think that Gonzales is a really tackle. I 1340 01:02:16,800 --> 01:02:19,560 Speaker 5: think he dives at ankles and uses and rolls his 1341 01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:20,680 Speaker 5: shoulder over backwards. 1342 01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:21,640 Speaker 2: I don't care how he does it. 1343 01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:24,880 Speaker 5: He gets them down, not generally the guy for the 1344 01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:26,840 Speaker 5: touchdown he was involved in that the other day. 1345 01:02:27,080 --> 01:02:30,560 Speaker 3: I think that that's the question, is you know he's 1346 01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:31,800 Speaker 3: an excellent player? 1347 01:02:32,320 --> 01:02:33,080 Speaker 5: I agree? 1348 01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:36,520 Speaker 3: Is he this style of corner that they truly in 1349 01:02:36,600 --> 01:02:40,720 Speaker 3: their heart of hearts want And if he's not, are 1350 01:02:40,760 --> 01:02:42,960 Speaker 3: you going to still pay that guy thirty million dollars 1351 01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:46,520 Speaker 3: a year to be a little bit of a round 1352 01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:47,800 Speaker 3: peg in a square hole. 1353 01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:50,919 Speaker 2: You can play zone and still have you can play 1354 01:02:50,960 --> 01:02:53,000 Speaker 2: what they call man zone. You can have a guy 1355 01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:56,520 Speaker 2: I like this, you know, taking taking on their best 1356 01:02:56,560 --> 01:02:58,200 Speaker 2: receiver and still play zone. 1357 01:02:58,560 --> 01:03:02,720 Speaker 3: So nowadays in the league, you don't see a whole 1358 01:03:02,760 --> 01:03:06,240 Speaker 3: lot of spot drop zone because quarterbacks are there too good, 1359 01:03:06,600 --> 01:03:09,000 Speaker 3: So you don't see a whole lot of just we're 1360 01:03:09,160 --> 01:03:11,960 Speaker 3: taking an area, country, spot drop, whatever you want to 1361 01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:15,560 Speaker 3: call it. Traditional zone coverage. Most coverages in zone now 1362 01:03:15,680 --> 01:03:19,320 Speaker 3: has some sort of match principles because it's just these 1363 01:03:19,400 --> 01:03:22,360 Speaker 3: offenses and these quarterbacks are just too sophisticated and they're 1364 01:03:22,360 --> 01:03:26,080 Speaker 3: too good to just play traditional zone. So there is 1365 01:03:26,200 --> 01:03:28,600 Speaker 3: that element like when you're on the outside, like it 1366 01:03:28,720 --> 01:03:31,240 Speaker 3: might be Cover three and it might be zone, but 1367 01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:34,000 Speaker 3: you're man to man on your guy, right. But I 1368 01:03:34,120 --> 01:03:37,280 Speaker 3: think the difference with this defense is it's a lot 1369 01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:40,440 Speaker 3: more a disguised zone, like they like to spin the 1370 01:03:40,520 --> 01:03:44,280 Speaker 3: dial in zone coverage, mix up one high, two high looks, 1371 01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:47,880 Speaker 3: things like that. And I could see between that and 1372 01:03:48,680 --> 01:03:50,560 Speaker 3: the fact that I agree with Paul he's not the 1373 01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:55,600 Speaker 3: most physical corner. That's the devil's advocate, you know. Argument. 1374 01:03:55,880 --> 01:03:58,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, I would say, and if we can 1375 01:03:58,160 --> 01:04:02,520 Speaker 5: go back to and I know you'll remember when Stefan 1376 01:04:02,600 --> 01:04:03,680 Speaker 5: Gilmore first got here. 1377 01:04:03,920 --> 01:04:06,800 Speaker 3: Yes, yep, I've talked about this a lot on cakeshwink. 1378 01:04:06,560 --> 01:04:09,240 Speaker 5: Oh okay, yeah, so yeah, I don't I don't have 1379 01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:11,360 Speaker 5: to repeat it, just I think they played a lot 1380 01:04:11,400 --> 01:04:14,440 Speaker 5: of zones early on and he didn't look great, and 1381 01:04:14,520 --> 01:04:16,880 Speaker 5: they sort of got back to I kind of in 1382 01:04:16,920 --> 01:04:19,280 Speaker 5: the back of my mind think there's going to be 1383 01:04:19,360 --> 01:04:23,600 Speaker 5: some changes defensively, you know, more consistently when these games 1384 01:04:23,680 --> 01:04:25,720 Speaker 5: become more and more important as we get down the stretch. 1385 01:04:25,840 --> 01:04:26,000 Speaker 13: Yeah. 1386 01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:28,200 Speaker 3: So the Buffalo game in we five, I'm sorry. So 1387 01:04:29,440 --> 01:04:32,520 Speaker 3: they played forty percent man against Buffalo in Week five, 1388 01:04:32,920 --> 01:04:35,320 Speaker 3: and that was the first kind of like, Okay, what's 1389 01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:37,480 Speaker 3: your playoff game plan? Like this is a big game. 1390 01:04:37,520 --> 01:04:40,240 Speaker 3: It's Sunday night football against the division rival, Like what 1391 01:04:40,360 --> 01:04:42,080 Speaker 3: are you going to do? And what they did was 1392 01:04:42,120 --> 01:04:44,440 Speaker 3: they manned up right, they played man to man and 1393 01:04:44,520 --> 01:04:46,000 Speaker 3: that Gonzales was back. 1394 01:04:45,800 --> 01:04:47,440 Speaker 2: And was that also to make sure they had the 1395 01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:48,360 Speaker 2: run taken care of? 1396 01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:51,280 Speaker 3: Maybe, but I think it was more that they knew 1397 01:04:51,320 --> 01:04:53,880 Speaker 3: that Buffalo's receivers were limited and they thought they had 1398 01:04:53,920 --> 01:04:56,680 Speaker 3: a clear advantage with their their corners are better than 1399 01:04:56,680 --> 01:04:58,120 Speaker 3: Buffalo's receivers because it. 1400 01:04:58,160 --> 01:05:01,160 Speaker 5: Can be a little counterintuitive to pay a lot of 1401 01:05:01,280 --> 01:05:06,280 Speaker 5: man against Josh Allen. So they obviously felt coverage wise, 1402 01:05:06,320 --> 01:05:08,520 Speaker 5: I agree with with Evan. I think they felt like 1403 01:05:08,600 --> 01:05:10,120 Speaker 5: that was a big game and they used kind of 1404 01:05:10,160 --> 01:05:11,000 Speaker 5: a different wrinkle. 1405 01:05:11,080 --> 01:05:13,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, I enjoyed listening Evan talking because I think this 1406 01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:15,600 Speaker 4: is a point, a debate point that's coming and I've 1407 01:05:15,640 --> 01:05:18,280 Speaker 4: been wondering about it, and you know, I would also 1408 01:05:18,440 --> 01:05:20,400 Speaker 4: clear it up for you now, not cleared up, but 1409 01:05:20,760 --> 01:05:25,160 Speaker 4: there the tip of the is he the aggressive, you know, 1410 01:05:25,360 --> 01:05:27,400 Speaker 4: like does his personality work against him? 1411 01:05:27,480 --> 01:05:29,680 Speaker 1: And like I still err on the side of what 1412 01:05:29,760 --> 01:05:30,120 Speaker 1: Evan got. 1413 01:05:30,160 --> 01:05:31,920 Speaker 4: The point I was going to make was when you 1414 01:05:32,040 --> 01:05:34,840 Speaker 4: get to the like caller, wait until you get into 1415 01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:36,800 Speaker 4: the good games and the teams that you need to 1416 01:05:36,840 --> 01:05:38,640 Speaker 4: be able to man up. You're gonna want a guy 1417 01:05:38,720 --> 01:05:42,040 Speaker 4: with elite athletic talent that can man up guys. But 1418 01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:44,680 Speaker 4: I do think that this is like a debate that 1419 01:05:44,760 --> 01:05:47,120 Speaker 4: we're going to talk about, are you going to fork 1420 01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:49,720 Speaker 4: over a boatload if there are some things that you 1421 01:05:49,880 --> 01:05:50,600 Speaker 4: don't love it? 1422 01:05:50,720 --> 01:05:53,720 Speaker 2: And also are we seeing Gonzales said is one hundred 1423 01:05:53,760 --> 01:05:57,000 Speaker 2: percent right now? Like is this hamstring kind of nagging him? 1424 01:05:57,360 --> 01:05:59,920 Speaker 4: I mean I've seen no sign to say that is 1425 01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:03,080 Speaker 4: the case. But I think everything evn't said with the 1426 01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:06,400 Speaker 4: more zone, you know, the just the playing temperament, and 1427 01:06:06,480 --> 01:06:09,840 Speaker 4: I do think he's improved his tackling, But at the 1428 01:06:09,880 --> 01:06:11,640 Speaker 4: same time, I just don't think that. 1429 01:06:14,360 --> 01:06:17,080 Speaker 5: I don't think that you don't sign a guy that 1430 01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:20,120 Speaker 5: you think is one of the better players in his position. Yeah, 1431 01:06:20,440 --> 01:06:22,120 Speaker 5: I just don't think that's good practice. 1432 01:06:22,280 --> 01:06:24,560 Speaker 3: I also think that you land on an elite corner, 1433 01:06:24,640 --> 01:06:26,680 Speaker 3: and you know, I would like to think that in 1434 01:06:26,760 --> 01:06:30,400 Speaker 3: the off season and this season, I think it's obviously 1435 01:06:30,480 --> 01:06:32,680 Speaker 3: gone way better than anybody could have expected. But this 1436 01:06:32,920 --> 01:06:35,960 Speaker 3: is more about like setting the foundation of the program 1437 01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:39,040 Speaker 3: and getting this thing up and running. I think that 1438 01:06:39,160 --> 01:06:42,600 Speaker 3: they could probably be more man heavy and be better 1439 01:06:42,840 --> 01:06:45,880 Speaker 3: in man coverage with Davis and Gonzo and Marcus Jones. 1440 01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:49,520 Speaker 3: So I wonder if in the off season, you know, 1441 01:06:49,840 --> 01:06:52,320 Speaker 3: does Zach Korr get in the lab with somebody that's 1442 01:06:52,360 --> 01:06:55,560 Speaker 3: really a man background, and like, do they try to 1443 01:06:56,040 --> 01:06:58,920 Speaker 3: find ways better ways to cover in man to man 1444 01:06:59,360 --> 01:07:01,560 Speaker 3: Because I've had my gripes with the way that they've 1445 01:07:01,640 --> 01:07:04,880 Speaker 3: done it, and so I wonder if maybe they you know, 1446 01:07:05,080 --> 01:07:07,680 Speaker 3: get better at it, you know, in the off season 1447 01:07:07,720 --> 01:07:09,960 Speaker 3: and they kind of I mean, it's schooled a little bit. 1448 01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:12,720 Speaker 5: What are we talking about, like just you know, off 1449 01:07:12,760 --> 01:07:14,440 Speaker 5: the top of our head, there's no research here. But 1450 01:07:14,560 --> 01:07:18,080 Speaker 5: like you know, Ctan Stingly, you know, I don't know 1451 01:07:18,160 --> 01:07:21,200 Speaker 5: if Sauce is still in that echelon. I think he's 1452 01:07:21,280 --> 01:07:26,760 Speaker 5: kind of slipped, you know, recently. I don't know Terrell 1453 01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:30,880 Speaker 5: in Atlanta, AJ Terrell J C. Horns pretty good in Carolina. 1454 01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:34,720 Speaker 5: Like where else are we looking like for a guy 1455 01:07:34,840 --> 01:07:38,240 Speaker 5: that that you think you feel better about that guy 1456 01:07:38,360 --> 01:07:39,160 Speaker 5: than Gonzales. 1457 01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:41,439 Speaker 3: I think you're the only two that have the case. 1458 01:07:41,680 --> 01:07:44,280 Speaker 3: Are Stingly in certain is the best corner. 1459 01:07:44,840 --> 01:07:47,320 Speaker 5: So I don't. I don't, and I'll never understand this. 1460 01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:50,160 Speaker 5: For as long as I do this, I'll never understand 1461 01:07:50,200 --> 01:07:54,560 Speaker 5: why fans ever look at it from a money perspective. 1462 01:07:55,120 --> 01:08:00,440 Speaker 5: I understand obviously why teams do, but I never understand 1463 01:08:00,440 --> 01:08:02,560 Speaker 5: why fans will look at it and say, I don't 1464 01:08:02,560 --> 01:08:06,400 Speaker 5: want to pay that guy thirty million. Why you think 1465 01:08:06,440 --> 01:08:08,240 Speaker 5: he's one of the best five players in the league 1466 01:08:08,240 --> 01:08:10,880 Speaker 5: at his position? And I think five is conservative. As 1467 01:08:10,920 --> 01:08:14,640 Speaker 5: Evan just said, He's goingly get two, right, So one 1468 01:08:14,680 --> 01:08:16,439 Speaker 5: of the five best players in the position, you got 1469 01:08:16,560 --> 01:08:19,400 Speaker 5: to pay him the going rate. That's the going rate. Now, 1470 01:08:19,479 --> 01:08:23,120 Speaker 5: I can understand. I don't want to pay just to 1471 01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:26,639 Speaker 5: throw a guy out there toua as a top ten 1472 01:08:26,800 --> 01:08:28,280 Speaker 5: quarterback in the league, because I don't think he's a 1473 01:08:28,320 --> 01:08:32,280 Speaker 5: top ten quarterback. You know, it's not about the money, 1474 01:08:32,360 --> 01:08:34,680 Speaker 5: it's I don't think he's that good. I do think 1475 01:08:34,760 --> 01:08:37,800 Speaker 5: Gonzalez is that good. I think he's one of the 1476 01:08:37,880 --> 01:08:41,320 Speaker 5: best in the game at his spot. So I'm going 1477 01:08:41,400 --> 01:08:42,560 Speaker 5: to pay for that. I want to pay for that. 1478 01:08:42,720 --> 01:08:46,519 Speaker 4: Yeah, So I'd also highlight two thousand and eight to 1479 01:08:46,920 --> 01:08:49,479 Speaker 4: midway through twenty twelve is a cautionary tale. When this 1480 01:08:49,640 --> 01:08:52,679 Speaker 4: was the approach was, let's focus on the front seven. 1481 01:08:52,760 --> 01:08:55,160 Speaker 4: We can just get guys like Tyrone Wheatley to play 1482 01:08:55,280 --> 01:08:56,080 Speaker 4: zone corner. 1483 01:08:55,920 --> 01:08:58,040 Speaker 5: And you know those I could player that hits at 1484 01:08:58,080 --> 01:09:00,840 Speaker 5: corner right and you and will hire and so then 1485 01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:02,920 Speaker 5: in what happens in twenty twelve, they say, hey, we 1486 01:09:03,040 --> 01:09:05,080 Speaker 5: got to be able to manage Julian Edelmans go and 1487 01:09:05,160 --> 01:09:07,559 Speaker 5: get a keep to leave, and then it's to leap leaves, 1488 01:09:07,600 --> 01:09:10,040 Speaker 5: you go get revis. They went from Salem to t 1489 01:09:10,200 --> 01:09:15,800 Speaker 5: Leab with a black hole of wasted possibilities at cornerback, yep, 1490 01:09:15,840 --> 01:09:18,640 Speaker 5: because they didn't have anybody who could cover the bottomatic. 1491 01:09:18,880 --> 01:09:21,880 Speaker 5: No matter how great Brady was at some point the 1492 01:09:22,000 --> 01:09:24,120 Speaker 5: other team outscored them and they went home. 1493 01:09:24,320 --> 01:09:28,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, that that's I mean, when you play the league quarterbacks, 1494 01:09:28,240 --> 01:09:31,479 Speaker 3: you can't just sit in zone coverage there. And if 1495 01:09:31,520 --> 01:09:34,080 Speaker 3: you try to play a league quarterbacks in disguise, like 1496 01:09:34,160 --> 01:09:36,519 Speaker 3: they don't care about the disguises, the disguises isn't going 1497 01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:38,760 Speaker 3: to throw off Patrick Mahomes or Josh Allen in a 1498 01:09:38,800 --> 01:09:41,120 Speaker 3: playoff game, It's not gonna matter. Yeah, So, like if 1499 01:09:41,160 --> 01:09:43,080 Speaker 3: you're gonna you have to play man to man because 1500 01:09:43,160 --> 01:09:45,879 Speaker 3: usually with man like it's more about can the receivers 1501 01:09:45,960 --> 01:09:48,120 Speaker 3: get open at that point than it is about like 1502 01:09:48,200 --> 01:09:50,280 Speaker 3: can the quarterback read it out and like find the 1503 01:09:50,360 --> 01:09:53,920 Speaker 3: open guy. Yeah, So I mean that that's we'll see. 1504 01:09:53,840 --> 01:09:55,000 Speaker 2: That wait on the playoffs. 1505 01:09:55,080 --> 01:09:57,679 Speaker 4: Like it's it's a really good I mean, I'm glad, great, great, 1506 01:09:57,720 --> 01:09:58,599 Speaker 4: great question, Jason. 1507 01:09:58,640 --> 01:09:59,800 Speaker 1: This is something I've been thinking about. 1508 01:09:59,840 --> 01:10:02,920 Speaker 4: But let's wait till after playoffs and see how they 1509 01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:05,439 Speaker 4: use Gonzalez and what Gonzalez does in the playoffs, because. 1510 01:10:05,240 --> 01:10:06,760 Speaker 1: I think that's where it might have a difference. You 1511 01:10:06,880 --> 01:10:08,080 Speaker 1: see his true value. 1512 01:10:08,280 --> 01:10:12,640 Speaker 5: And I would say to Jason, I'm not blind. I 1513 01:10:12,760 --> 01:10:17,160 Speaker 5: think there's a chance that they don't resign them portrade them. Yeah, yeah, 1514 01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:19,720 Speaker 5: I mean I think that. Yeah, like he doesn't get 1515 01:10:19,760 --> 01:10:22,640 Speaker 5: the extension that he's going to be eligible for for 1516 01:10:22,720 --> 01:10:25,640 Speaker 5: the first time, will be in this offseason, and I 1517 01:10:26,160 --> 01:10:28,840 Speaker 5: wouldn't be and it is I think I'd be disappointed, 1518 01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:29,960 Speaker 5: but I wouldn't be stunned by it. 1519 01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:31,479 Speaker 1: It's just the fifth year option, year two they got 1520 01:10:31,600 --> 01:10:31,960 Speaker 1: to decide on. 1521 01:10:32,320 --> 01:10:32,400 Speaker 4: Ye. 1522 01:10:32,800 --> 01:10:36,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, but it just it does seem like their defense 1523 01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:38,479 Speaker 3: is built from the inside out. Like it feels like 1524 01:10:38,600 --> 01:10:44,000 Speaker 3: they they like, what's more d line, you know, linebacker, 1525 01:10:44,120 --> 01:10:46,240 Speaker 3: Like that's really where they want to build it in 1526 01:10:46,280 --> 01:10:46,559 Speaker 3: the front. 1527 01:10:46,720 --> 01:10:50,639 Speaker 2: What's more likely they pay him probably at that time 1528 01:10:51,080 --> 01:10:53,840 Speaker 2: the most any corner makes in the NFL, or they 1529 01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:56,519 Speaker 2: franchise him. Oh ah. 1530 01:10:57,160 --> 01:10:57,960 Speaker 1: I mean it's interesting. 1531 01:10:58,040 --> 01:11:00,280 Speaker 4: It's just how does this regime approach those kind of things, 1532 01:11:00,320 --> 01:11:02,320 Speaker 4: you know. I Mean there's part of me they've been 1533 01:11:02,439 --> 01:11:04,920 Speaker 4: very aggressive with, you know, trying to sign big name, 1534 01:11:05,080 --> 01:11:06,479 Speaker 4: talented guys to big deals. 1535 01:11:07,200 --> 01:11:10,000 Speaker 1: So I wouldn't be surprised if they did the connect cash. 1536 01:11:10,040 --> 01:11:12,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, the extension would be the more likely thing they 1537 01:11:12,200 --> 01:11:14,720 Speaker 5: ain't going to get to franchise because he'll if they 1538 01:11:14,800 --> 01:11:18,080 Speaker 5: don't sign him for three years. Like he's out. 1539 01:11:18,200 --> 01:11:19,120 Speaker 3: It's Michael Parsons. 1540 01:11:19,560 --> 01:11:20,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's out. 1541 01:11:20,640 --> 01:11:22,719 Speaker 5: He's not going to sit around for two full seasons 1542 01:11:22,720 --> 01:11:26,080 Speaker 5: and then get franchised in the third season. He's not 1543 01:11:26,160 --> 01:11:28,639 Speaker 5: going to do that quiet I mean he'll do it quietly, Yeah, 1544 01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:30,120 Speaker 5: but he'll be bitching about it. 1545 01:11:30,240 --> 01:11:31,920 Speaker 1: But is there any I mean, this is a money question, 1546 01:11:32,040 --> 01:11:33,120 Speaker 1: but is there consideration? 1547 01:11:33,240 --> 01:11:35,160 Speaker 4: You got Drake coming up too, and he's probably gonna 1548 01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:36,479 Speaker 4: be the highest paid quarterback in the league. 1549 01:11:36,840 --> 01:11:39,000 Speaker 2: It's all part of it. But like I think he 1550 01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:39,719 Speaker 2: can have both. 1551 01:11:39,920 --> 01:11:43,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, thanks Fred, you know, see that's one thing that 1552 01:11:43,680 --> 01:11:45,799 Speaker 5: we've come to I think he can have come to agree. 1553 01:11:45,640 --> 01:11:45,960 Speaker 2: To wear that. 1554 01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:48,280 Speaker 3: You can definitely have balls. But it is part of it. 1555 01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:50,720 Speaker 5: As Felger says, give me a nap and I'll show 1556 01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:50,960 Speaker 5: you how. 1557 01:11:51,240 --> 01:11:53,760 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm talking about a sixty million dollars a 1558 01:11:53,840 --> 01:11:54,559 Speaker 3: year quarterback. 1559 01:11:55,200 --> 01:11:57,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, he's going to be he's going to be one 1560 01:11:57,439 --> 01:11:58,760 Speaker 5: one of the Yeah, he's going to be one of 1561 01:11:58,800 --> 01:12:01,080 Speaker 5: the highest paid quarterbacks. And Gonzale is gonna be one 1562 01:12:01,080 --> 01:12:04,720 Speaker 5: of the highest paid cornerbacks. So that's why I will 1563 01:12:04,760 --> 01:12:05,719 Speaker 5: not be stunned. 1564 01:12:05,840 --> 01:12:08,400 Speaker 2: Who is amazing agent. 1565 01:12:09,880 --> 01:12:10,120 Speaker 9: We know. 1566 01:12:12,760 --> 01:12:15,600 Speaker 2: I do, but I do you know you're not telling no, 1567 01:12:15,840 --> 01:12:17,640 Speaker 2: you can't think of it. Yeah, I can't think of 1568 01:12:17,720 --> 01:12:22,000 Speaker 2: it because I can hear you know Lass down well, 1569 01:12:22,040 --> 01:12:25,800 Speaker 2: you know when Tom bra stopped. Stop.

I can tell you the fourteen games 1633 01:15:17,760 --> 01:15:20,120 Speaker 13: we're going to play next year, and then the rest 1634 01:15:20,160 --> 01:15:22,439 Speaker 13: of them fall in place. We earned this last place 1635 01:15:22,479 --> 01:15:27,720 Speaker 13: schedule and we're kicking everybody's boat.

Obviously, like it's it's not our fault, 1640 01:15:42,840 --> 01:15:46,280 Speaker 13: but the silver linings in it is. We didn't just 1641 01:15:46,360 --> 01:15:49,240 Speaker 13: go blow everybody out. There was actually some games in there. 1642 01:15:49,280 --> 01:15:51,760 Speaker 13: They got a little bat assisted. When we played the 1643 01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:54,800 Speaker 13: big dogs, they showed up, they grabbed their balls and 1644 01:15:54,960 --> 01:15:57,280 Speaker 13: they went home. You know what I mean. On the 1645 01:15:57,479 --> 01:16:00,040 Speaker 13: road like, I mean, this team is for real. I 1646 01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:02,479 Speaker 13: don't care what anybody say.

I don't want to hear it. You told 1650 01:16:09,160 --> 01:16:11,120 Speaker 13: me they had multiple double digit leads. You know what 1651 01:16:11,160 --> 01:16:11,400 Speaker 13: I mean? 1652 01:16:11,840 --> 01:16:14,000 Speaker 5: The Giants think I told you that before the game. 1653 01:16:14,080 --> 01:16:16,320 Speaker 5: That's why I picked the Pages to win by two touchdowns. 1654 01:16:18,600 --> 01:16:21,120 Speaker 13: Yeah, I did three tags. I'm just saying. Everybody was like, 1655 01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:24,160 Speaker 13: you can't say one thing, and anybody lets the Giants. 1656 01:16:24,200 --> 01:16:25,760 Speaker 13: I know it was the Giants, but we didn't we 1657 01:16:25,840 --> 01:16:28,200 Speaker 13: didn't make the schedule and we were going into the 1658 01:16:28,240 --> 01:16:30,840 Speaker 13: batle on a Monday night like that's the that's the 1659 01:16:30,880 --> 01:16:33,439 Speaker 13: place to lay down. But now they grabbed their balls, 1660 01:16:33,840 --> 01:16:35,559 Speaker 13: they knocked the end off their helmet and make them 1661 01:16:35,600 --> 01:16:38,320 Speaker 13: the Food York Giants. And you know what I mean. 1662 01:16:38,800 --> 01:16:39,439 Speaker 2: I know what you mean. 1663 01:16:39,560 --> 01:16:39,800 Speaker 9: Sam. 1664 01:16:39,840 --> 01:16:43,559 Speaker 2: I'm with you, Hey, and I just. 1665 01:16:43,640 --> 01:16:46,120 Speaker 13: Watching the shows names with games. What if we call 1666 01:16:46,200 --> 01:16:47,640 Speaker 13: them games incomplete? 1667 01:16:47,760 --> 01:16:47,920 Speaker 2: Key? 1668 01:16:50,520 --> 01:16:50,920 Speaker 13: I take it. 1669 01:16:51,400 --> 01:16:56,360 Speaker 5: I hold on, Sam, No, I didn't hear the question 1670 01:16:56,640 --> 01:16:59,960 Speaker 5: anding about the Chief. Great. I didn't get the Chief. 1671 01:17:00,200 --> 01:17:06,320 Speaker 2: I was coughing, and I didn't hear the question. Joseph Pennsylvania, Hey, Joe. 1672 01:17:07,720 --> 01:17:08,920 Speaker 12: Hey, guys, love the show. 1673 01:17:10,680 --> 01:17:13,560 Speaker 23: My question is dis about the can't do that and 1674 01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:17,920 Speaker 23: mental All Pro? Yeah, selections, and like Drake May that 1675 01:17:17,960 --> 01:17:20,600 Speaker 23: we're talking about him m VP. He's number one in 1676 01:17:20,760 --> 01:17:23,360 Speaker 23: Pro Bowl voting, but so is he almost like a 1677 01:17:23,400 --> 01:17:24,559 Speaker 23: shoot in them for All Pro? 1678 01:17:25,720 --> 01:17:27,439 Speaker 5: I would think, But I would think he's got a 1679 01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:30,519 Speaker 5: really good shot for All Pro. But Stafford could get it. 1680 01:17:31,760 --> 01:17:35,400 Speaker 1: That's an ap thing, right, like one I believe. 1681 01:17:37,680 --> 01:17:40,080 Speaker 5: So I believe last year Lamar Jackson was the All 1682 01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:43,680 Speaker 5: Pro in John And yeah, why can I not think 1683 01:17:43,720 --> 01:17:46,479 Speaker 5: of Josh Allen MVP? Yeah, it is possible. 1684 01:17:46,560 --> 01:17:48,439 Speaker 3: That was the first time in a while that they 1685 01:17:48,520 --> 01:17:51,720 Speaker 3: haven't been in lockstep. Usually it's the same voters, so 1686 01:17:52,080 --> 01:17:53,800 Speaker 3: it really doesn't make any sense. 1687 01:17:53,800 --> 01:17:55,720 Speaker 5: It's almost like they wanted to get Josh Allen on 1688 01:17:55,880 --> 01:17:58,519 Speaker 5: m v P and then they said, but really Jackson 1689 01:17:58,560 --> 01:17:59,040 Speaker 5: had a Betty. 1690 01:17:59,200 --> 01:18:02,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, I like maybe in the spirit of what 1691 01:18:02,520 --> 01:18:06,360 Speaker 2: an MVP is, you can make the argument. 1692 01:18:06,560 --> 01:18:08,599 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't think it's that iological. I don't think 1693 01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:12,160 Speaker 5: it's that illogical, but yes, I would if May wins 1694 01:18:12,280 --> 01:18:14,320 Speaker 5: m VP. I would expect him to be the first 1695 01:18:14,360 --> 01:18:15,240 Speaker 5: team All Pro, but. 1696 01:18:15,600 --> 01:18:16,880 Speaker 3: At least be first or second team. 1697 01:18:17,160 --> 01:18:19,360 Speaker 5: It's not a lock. Yeah, and to me, first team 1698 01:18:19,520 --> 01:18:20,120 Speaker 5: is the only team. 1699 01:18:20,160 --> 01:18:22,439 Speaker 23: But the other day I saw like with top ten 1700 01:18:22,560 --> 01:18:26,080 Speaker 23: voting for cornerbacks for a f T wise it team, 1701 01:18:26,280 --> 01:18:29,600 Speaker 23: Marcus Jones was the second a f T and Gonzalez 1702 01:18:29,720 --> 01:18:32,160 Speaker 23: was number three. Do you think do you think Marcus 1703 01:18:32,240 --> 01:18:34,840 Speaker 23: Jones is going to make it as a corner for AFT. 1704 01:18:35,479 --> 01:18:36,200 Speaker 2: As a corner? 1705 01:18:36,840 --> 01:18:39,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I was trying to I don't think the 1706 01:18:39,320 --> 01:18:42,479 Speaker 3: Pro Bowl does is I AP might do slot corner, 1707 01:18:43,560 --> 01:18:49,000 Speaker 3: so they might differentiate outside corners and slot corners because 1708 01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:52,040 Speaker 3: I think they do the same with receivers too. Now 1709 01:18:52,120 --> 01:18:57,120 Speaker 3: there's three receivers instead of two the receivers, so if 1710 01:18:57,160 --> 01:19:00,280 Speaker 3: I'm right about that, then Marcus Jones says the FOT 1711 01:19:00,360 --> 01:19:04,280 Speaker 3: corner specifically definitely has a case to be an All Pro. 1712 01:19:04,479 --> 01:19:06,960 Speaker 5: Yeah goodner. Yeah, yeah, I mean I think he's an 1713 01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:09,519 Speaker 5: All Pro punt returner. So just like do you make 1714 01:19:09,600 --> 01:19:16,080 Speaker 5: can he make All Pro at jet. 1715 01:19:13,520 --> 01:19:15,479 Speaker 3: Two spots on the same side of the ball, like 1716 01:19:16,160 --> 01:19:18,600 Speaker 3: they put him as defensive end and that linebacker and 1717 01:19:18,680 --> 01:19:20,559 Speaker 3: he makes the All Pro team in spots. 1718 01:19:21,160 --> 01:19:23,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, you have to be pretty good to do that. Thanks. 1719 01:19:23,720 --> 01:19:26,160 Speaker 3: Joe was like Khalil Mack and his Prime or something 1720 01:19:26,320 --> 01:19:26,559 Speaker 3: like that. 1721 01:19:27,320 --> 01:19:31,240 Speaker 2: Mike and Florida. He says, why fans worry about money? 1722 01:19:31,280 --> 01:19:32,760 Speaker 2: You know, we say, well, what are you worried about it? 1723 01:19:32,840 --> 01:19:35,200 Speaker 2: At your money? He says, And it's not because they 1724 01:19:35,280 --> 01:19:37,519 Speaker 2: care about the money, but because they consider a big 1725 01:19:37,640 --> 01:19:40,800 Speaker 2: expenditure on the wrong guy slash overall scheme versus other 1726 01:19:40,880 --> 01:19:43,280 Speaker 2: guys out there that might be better for the team. 1727 01:19:44,479 --> 01:19:48,519 Speaker 5: So so you don't want the player, right, Yeah, that's 1728 01:19:48,560 --> 01:19:50,720 Speaker 5: not why. I that makes total sense to me. I 1729 01:19:51,160 --> 01:19:53,120 Speaker 5: that email makes total sense to me. I think he 1730 01:19:53,200 --> 01:19:55,320 Speaker 5: might not be a scheme fit or you know, that's 1731 01:19:55,360 --> 01:19:57,639 Speaker 5: why we walk away from Kyle Duggar because we didn't 1732 01:19:57,640 --> 01:20:00,439 Speaker 5: think he was necessarily the right fit the scheme. 1733 01:20:00,560 --> 01:20:00,760 Speaker 2: Yep. 1734 01:20:00,920 --> 01:20:04,160 Speaker 3: I worry about money because I understand that everything has 1735 01:20:04,200 --> 01:20:06,600 Speaker 3: a budget. Sure, so like if you're a given. 1736 01:20:06,439 --> 01:20:08,519 Speaker 2: That means you can't get something else you have to 1737 01:20:08,560 --> 01:20:09,040 Speaker 2: consider it. 1738 01:20:09,360 --> 01:20:11,880 Speaker 3: I don't worry about the money for any other reason. Besides, 1739 01:20:12,680 --> 01:20:15,360 Speaker 3: it's a business. And like you realize that someday you 1740 01:20:15,439 --> 01:20:18,240 Speaker 3: wake up and realize, like this isn't a never ending 1741 01:20:18,320 --> 01:20:20,760 Speaker 3: piggy bank here that just keeps going and going. 1742 01:20:20,840 --> 01:20:24,479 Speaker 5: No, but that's like we're talking like the cash out 1743 01:20:24,640 --> 01:20:27,559 Speaker 5: kind of thing. Yeah, in a particular time, like they 1744 01:20:28,280 --> 01:20:30,599 Speaker 5: they put out a lot of cash this particular off 1745 01:20:30,680 --> 01:20:33,720 Speaker 5: season they have they did. Yeah, you know, I know, 1746 01:20:34,040 --> 01:20:36,439 Speaker 5: you know, the narrative is how cheap everybody is around here. 1747 01:20:36,479 --> 01:20:38,640 Speaker 5: But they the Patriots spent a lot of cash this 1748 01:20:38,760 --> 01:20:41,920 Speaker 5: off season on a lot of free agents. I don't 1749 01:20:42,080 --> 01:20:45,920 Speaker 5: think it's probably likely that they do it again this 1750 01:20:46,120 --> 01:20:49,519 Speaker 5: coming off season because of what Evan's talking about. Everybody 1751 01:20:49,600 --> 01:20:53,280 Speaker 5: has budgets. Yeah, that's cash out. That is not like 1752 01:20:53,840 --> 01:20:55,640 Speaker 5: it's not like, oh, we can't sign him to a 1753 01:20:56,160 --> 01:20:57,800 Speaker 5: you know, a five year deal because our cap is 1754 01:20:57,840 --> 01:21:00,840 Speaker 5: going to be in a bad situation. No, it's this 1755 01:21:01,080 --> 01:21:04,760 Speaker 5: one particular year. It might stop you from getting three 1756 01:21:04,840 --> 01:21:07,080 Speaker 5: other guys that you might have wanted to get because 1757 01:21:07,080 --> 01:21:09,120 Speaker 5: I don't have the cash to lay out as signing 1758 01:21:09,160 --> 01:21:11,920 Speaker 5: bonuses which are going to entice a free agent. That 1759 01:21:12,240 --> 01:21:12,719 Speaker 5: is different. 1760 01:21:13,120 --> 01:21:13,600 Speaker 1: Scares me. 1761 01:21:14,160 --> 01:21:16,559 Speaker 4: Scares me because I think looking at the schedule next 1762 01:21:16,640 --> 01:21:19,360 Speaker 4: year and how the team will be viewed by the 1763 01:21:19,400 --> 01:21:21,280 Speaker 4: rest of the NFL, I think you need to take 1764 01:21:21,280 --> 01:21:22,679 Speaker 4: a big step forward this offseason. 1765 01:21:22,760 --> 01:21:25,720 Speaker 2: I think you cannot think, oh, we got from the 1766 01:21:25,800 --> 01:21:26,280 Speaker 2: super Bowl. 1767 01:21:26,479 --> 01:21:27,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, from the super Bowl. 1768 01:21:28,040 --> 01:21:30,120 Speaker 4: It's like oh three where you went and got Corey 1769 01:21:30,200 --> 01:21:32,479 Speaker 4: Dillon and I know, and maybe not a money, but 1770 01:21:33,160 --> 01:21:37,200 Speaker 4: you continue to evolve and change the equation. Whereas if 1771 01:21:37,240 --> 01:21:39,320 Speaker 4: I think, if this team tries to stay pat and 1772 01:21:39,560 --> 01:21:40,800 Speaker 4: you know, and they have a lot of these guys 1773 01:21:40,840 --> 01:21:43,479 Speaker 4: coming and they have holes, but you have to you 1774 01:21:43,560 --> 01:21:45,760 Speaker 4: have to improve, I think in the spring with the 1775 01:21:45,880 --> 01:21:49,240 Speaker 4: roster because teams are gonna be gunning for you next year. 1776 01:21:49,360 --> 01:21:51,560 Speaker 1: The schedules tougher. You're gonna have to play betters. 1777 01:21:51,600 --> 01:21:53,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, and I'm not suggesting they're not going to. 1778 01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:55,160 Speaker 1: But you're right, you're right. 1779 01:21:55,280 --> 01:21:58,200 Speaker 4: And I think that it puts some pressure on guys 1780 01:21:58,240 --> 01:22:01,439 Speaker 4: like Ellio Wolf and Ryan Cowden into identify good players 1781 01:22:01,479 --> 01:22:02,160 Speaker 4: like they did this year. 1782 01:22:02,160 --> 01:22:05,360 Speaker 5: Weren't going to make Williams like twenty six million a 1783 01:22:05,479 --> 01:22:09,240 Speaker 5: year like Milton Williams. Yeah, I'm not expecting that. Yeah, 1784 01:22:09,360 --> 01:22:10,920 Speaker 5: I do what I mean, I'm not expecting they're going 1785 01:22:11,000 --> 01:22:12,600 Speaker 5: to set the market out of that. He was the 1786 01:22:12,640 --> 01:22:14,639 Speaker 5: highest paid defensive tackle in trade. 1787 01:22:14,640 --> 01:22:14,800 Speaker 2: Agent. 1788 01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:18,160 Speaker 3: I do wonder though, if it is like one splash like, 1789 01:22:18,280 --> 01:22:21,439 Speaker 3: do they make that one trade or that's a J. 1790 01:22:21,600 --> 01:22:21,800 Speaker 8: Brown? 1791 01:22:21,920 --> 01:22:23,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, a J Brown, you know something like that. 1792 01:22:24,160 --> 01:22:26,600 Speaker 5: I would not rule that out. Yeah, I would not 1793 01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:27,479 Speaker 5: rule something like that. 1794 01:22:27,640 --> 01:22:30,080 Speaker 3: It's funny you read my mind, Paul. If I had 1795 01:22:30,080 --> 01:22:31,880 Speaker 3: to pay it, put a guess on who it would be, 1796 01:22:31,920 --> 01:22:32,519 Speaker 3: it would be him. 1797 01:22:32,880 --> 01:22:33,040 Speaker 13: Yeah. 1798 01:22:33,200 --> 01:22:34,559 Speaker 1: I like the trade. I like the trade. 1799 01:22:34,600 --> 01:22:34,720 Speaker 13: Thing. 1800 01:22:35,400 --> 01:22:38,479 Speaker 5: I'm not saying I'm eliminating departability of them improving because 1801 01:22:38,479 --> 01:22:41,280 Speaker 5: I think that they're I don't want to go down 1802 01:22:41,320 --> 01:22:43,720 Speaker 5: this rabbit hole again, Okay, but I think Mike is 1803 01:22:43,800 --> 01:22:46,679 Speaker 5: trying to say, and I'll say, get harder because because 1804 01:22:46,680 --> 01:22:49,960 Speaker 5: you're nicer than me, I'll just say it. Okay. I 1805 01:22:50,040 --> 01:22:51,800 Speaker 5: don't think that they look at this team as being 1806 01:22:51,880 --> 01:22:54,720 Speaker 5: as talented as some of the other teams, and they 1807 01:22:54,800 --> 01:22:58,120 Speaker 5: think if they just sit tight and stand pat that 1808 01:22:58,240 --> 01:23:00,559 Speaker 5: won't be good enough next year when the the level 1809 01:23:00,600 --> 01:23:04,559 Speaker 5: of competition increases, so they're going to need to get better. Yeah. 1810 01:23:05,040 --> 01:23:06,720 Speaker 4: And then there's also think that they know that the 1811 01:23:06,800 --> 01:23:08,559 Speaker 4: thing working in their favor is you have Drake may. 1812 01:23:08,600 --> 01:23:10,960 Speaker 4: Now you have some reasons for people to want to 1813 01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:12,920 Speaker 4: come here, so maybe that can help grease the wheels 1814 01:23:12,960 --> 01:23:13,400 Speaker 4: a little bit. 1815 01:23:13,479 --> 01:23:15,920 Speaker 2: But because they get better. They could have been thirteen 1816 01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:18,200 Speaker 2: and oh this two, but. 1817 01:23:18,520 --> 01:23:20,880 Speaker 3: Drake May and you know that's why like A. J. 1818 01:23:21,000 --> 01:23:24,840 Speaker 5: Brown comes up right and they lost to the Raiders. 1819 01:23:25,040 --> 01:23:26,639 Speaker 5: You don't think they could have been better than eleven 1820 01:23:26,720 --> 01:23:27,000 Speaker 5: and two. 1821 01:23:27,680 --> 01:23:28,519 Speaker 2: You can't win them all. 1822 01:23:28,800 --> 01:23:31,600 Speaker 5: I understand seven, And I'm just saying they lost to 1823 01:23:32,080 --> 01:23:35,040 Speaker 5: like one really bad team and one really mid team. 1824 01:23:35,439 --> 01:23:37,640 Speaker 4: But I just I think I need to say it 1825 01:23:37,720 --> 01:23:40,400 Speaker 4: right now. And this is somebody probably they could very 1826 01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:42,840 Speaker 4: likely have a worse record next year, but be a. 1827 01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:46,000 Speaker 5: Better team, no doubt. We say that all the time. 1828 01:23:46,120 --> 01:23:49,960 Speaker 2: Yep. Zach and Sinsey wanted to highlight the fact that 1829 01:23:50,080 --> 01:23:53,840 Speaker 2: with Gonzales playing, the team is not lost, not that 1830 01:23:53,920 --> 01:23:56,120 Speaker 2: he gets all the credit because over all the defenses 1831 01:23:56,160 --> 01:24:00,920 Speaker 2: performing well as a unit. Runde missus Milt. Looking at 1832 01:24:00,920 --> 01:24:03,040 Speaker 2: the rest of the season, including playoffs, it seems that 1833 01:24:03,160 --> 01:24:06,880 Speaker 2: Christian has a clear advantage on other teams wide receiver ones. 1834 01:24:07,520 --> 01:24:09,599 Speaker 2: We could go on a stretch where the best wide 1835 01:24:09,640 --> 01:24:13,400 Speaker 2: receiver we face is Courtland Sutton. What wide receiver matchup 1836 01:24:13,439 --> 01:24:16,559 Speaker 2: scares you, guys? The inevitable Super Bowl matchup against the Rams. 1837 01:24:17,160 --> 01:24:21,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that's right though, I mean, but I just 1838 01:24:21,280 --> 01:24:24,360 Speaker 4: think Gonzales generally is an awesome athlete. And whether you're 1839 01:24:24,360 --> 01:24:26,040 Speaker 4: asking him to man up one of the best wide 1840 01:24:26,080 --> 01:24:29,360 Speaker 4: receivers in the game or an average wide receiver, He's 1841 01:24:29,439 --> 01:24:30,679 Speaker 4: going to do a pretty good job. 1842 01:24:30,880 --> 01:24:32,320 Speaker 1: And you know, I got a lot of confidence. 1843 01:24:32,840 --> 01:24:35,320 Speaker 3: I like, I don't worry about him. I worry about 1844 01:24:35,320 --> 01:24:38,160 Speaker 3: how they use him, like I do. And I'm not 1845 01:24:38,400 --> 01:24:41,560 Speaker 3: saying that in like, no, I guess every run of 1846 01:24:41,600 --> 01:24:44,640 Speaker 3: the mill coordinator. But like he brings up Pooka in 1847 01:24:44,800 --> 01:24:46,200 Speaker 3: the Rams in the super Bowl. 1848 01:24:46,439 --> 01:24:47,559 Speaker 1: Like Devant Adams. 1849 01:24:47,640 --> 01:24:52,599 Speaker 3: Sean McVay against Zach Korr in the Super Bowl is politely. 1850 01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:55,120 Speaker 5: You know, he can't change to all his owness, So 1851 01:24:55,400 --> 01:24:57,680 Speaker 5: so like you know, like what what he's really the 1852 01:24:57,760 --> 01:25:00,439 Speaker 5: way you switch it up? What is it look like 1853 01:25:00,800 --> 01:25:03,920 Speaker 5: if he goes up against Sean McVay, if he goes 1854 01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:08,759 Speaker 5: up against Andy Reid, if he goes up against Ben Johnson. 1855 01:25:09,040 --> 01:25:09,519 Speaker 2: You know, like. 1856 01:25:11,160 --> 01:25:13,920 Speaker 5: The pregame might have Zach Korr going up to Sean mcface. 1857 01:25:14,400 --> 01:25:20,960 Speaker 5: Where do you have guys in motion? Three tight ends? Awesome? 1858 01:25:21,280 --> 01:25:23,080 Speaker 5: Those three tight end look. 1859 01:25:24,600 --> 01:25:25,439 Speaker 3: Through the sea gas. 1860 01:25:26,600 --> 01:25:27,960 Speaker 1: You should have had like Bill on the inside with 1861 01:25:28,040 --> 01:25:29,840 Speaker 1: fit what you store for you tonight. 1862 01:25:31,520 --> 01:25:33,639 Speaker 3: We changed our whole defense going into this game. 1863 01:25:33,720 --> 01:25:40,000 Speaker 2: You have no idea. Joby writes in uh back to 1864 01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:43,760 Speaker 2: the Denver Conversation. I moved from Boston to Boulder, Colorado 1865 01:25:43,840 --> 01:25:45,920 Speaker 2: in the late nineties and stayed a few years before 1866 01:25:46,000 --> 01:25:49,080 Speaker 2: departing to California.

I think the Bronco players may have an 1869 01:25:55,080 --> 01:25:57,880 Speaker 2: aerobic advantage over sea level players that may come into 1870 01:25:57,920 --> 01:26:00,599 Speaker 2: play at times. So we're saying that, like the Olympic 1871 01:26:00,680 --> 01:26:02,719 Speaker 2: teams train there right, Like that's where the West Olympic 1872 01:26:02,800 --> 01:26:05,640 Speaker 2: headquarters systems.

They wouldn't have won without me. I need 1992 01:31:20,160 --> 01:31:24,479 Speaker 5: more Like that happens. That's a natural athletic Uh, you 1993 01:31:24,520 --> 01:31:27,080 Speaker 5: know phenomenon. It happens all the time. All these guys 1994 01:31:27,160 --> 01:31:30,920 Speaker 5: that were subjugating their egos in their minds, like, well, yeah, 1995 01:31:30,960 --> 01:31:33,080 Speaker 5: I did that last year, we had success doing it. 1996 01:31:33,160 --> 01:31:35,960 Speaker 5: Now I want mine. So next year you might not 1997 01:31:36,120 --> 01:31:37,800 Speaker 5: have this, You might not have the same things. 1998 01:31:38,640 --> 01:31:38,840 Speaker 9: Yeah. 1999 01:31:38,960 --> 01:31:41,479 Speaker 2: I appreciate, all right, something the balance, but. 2000 01:31:41,560 --> 01:31:44,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, I would agree that if they had put someone, 2001 01:31:44,280 --> 01:31:46,599 Speaker 5: if they could have gotten the aj Brown thing this year, 2002 01:31:46,600 --> 01:31:48,320 Speaker 5: and I still would have done it. But if they 2003 01:31:48,360 --> 01:31:50,280 Speaker 5: could have done that this year or the deadline, that 2004 01:31:50,400 --> 01:31:53,439 Speaker 5: would have been part of the cons Like does this 2005 01:31:53,560 --> 01:31:56,680 Speaker 5: disrupt everybody? You know, how is this how is this 2006 01:31:57,000 --> 01:32:00,000 Speaker 5: perceived in you know, within that room, within the the office, 2007 01:32:00,280 --> 01:32:03,880 Speaker 5: the locker room in general. You know, Diggs is the 2008 01:32:05,080 --> 01:32:07,160 Speaker 5: undisputed leader of that group. 2009 01:32:07,479 --> 01:32:08,240 Speaker 3: The leader of the team. 2010 01:32:08,360 --> 01:32:10,519 Speaker 5: Does he does he get does he take any offense 2011 01:32:10,680 --> 01:32:14,599 Speaker 5: to that? Like mid season? You know, we'll never know happened. 2012 01:32:15,120 --> 01:32:18,280 Speaker 3: He might be like towards the bottom now at this 2013 01:32:18,360 --> 01:32:20,000 Speaker 3: point of his career, I think Digs is number one 2014 01:32:20,200 --> 01:32:20,800 Speaker 3: wide receiver. 2015 01:32:21,640 --> 01:32:23,519 Speaker 5: I think he has been, and I would kind of 2016 01:32:23,560 --> 01:32:25,680 Speaker 5: agree with Mark that. Like heading into the season, I 2017 01:32:25,800 --> 01:32:27,320 Speaker 5: was like, no, he's the best they have, but he's 2018 01:32:27,360 --> 01:32:30,160 Speaker 5: not really a number one. He's played well enough to 2019 01:32:30,200 --> 01:32:33,880 Speaker 5: be a number one. Yeah, he just catches. 2020 01:32:33,600 --> 01:32:36,360 Speaker 1: Everything like that, but at one point five, But is 2021 01:32:36,400 --> 01:32:36,960 Speaker 1: he a weapon? 2022 01:32:39,760 --> 01:32:40,920 Speaker 2: I think a third down he is. 2023 01:32:41,080 --> 01:32:41,280 Speaker 13: Yeah. 2024 01:32:41,280 --> 01:32:43,280 Speaker 5: I was gonna say when when Drake really needs it, 2025 01:32:43,320 --> 01:32:43,960 Speaker 5: he's been a weapon. 2026 01:32:44,479 --> 01:32:49,120 Speaker 2: I with that third and fourth downs a problem with 2027 01:32:49,240 --> 01:32:49,960 Speaker 2: moving the sticks. 2028 01:32:50,240 --> 01:32:51,360 Speaker 3: I'm just asking the question. 2029 01:32:52,160 --> 01:32:55,920 Speaker 2: Sounds like you got a problem with it. Does it 2030 01:32:56,040 --> 01:33:01,800 Speaker 2: sound like that, Sebasti. He's on exit one point fifty 2031 01:33:01,880 --> 01:33:07,680 Speaker 2: three in New Jersey. Paulie yesterday, Sabby boy, you disagreed 2032 01:33:07,720 --> 01:33:09,400 Speaker 2: with me that the team let the foot off the 2033 01:33:09,520 --> 01:33:13,040 Speaker 2: gas in the second half. Maybe my writing skills need refinement. 2034 01:33:13,120 --> 01:33:15,360 Speaker 2: But to be clear, I think this was the best 2035 01:33:15,439 --> 01:33:17,599 Speaker 2: version of the team we've seen in all three phases, 2036 01:33:17,880 --> 01:33:20,560 Speaker 2: but they didn't play at that level all game. I 2037 01:33:20,640 --> 01:33:22,760 Speaker 2: don't think it was a conscious decision on the part 2038 01:33:22,800 --> 01:33:24,760 Speaker 2: of the team, but it was a lack of execution. 2039 01:33:25,200 --> 01:33:26,720 Speaker 2: I want to see them play like they did in 2040 01:33:26,760 --> 01:33:29,519 Speaker 2: the first half the entire game. Now, do you still 2041 01:33:29,560 --> 01:33:30,840 Speaker 2: disagree with me? I do. 2042 01:33:31,320 --> 01:33:33,720 Speaker 5: I think they played an exceptionally good second half as 2043 01:33:33,800 --> 01:33:35,320 Speaker 5: well as first half. Now, if you want to get 2044 01:33:35,400 --> 01:33:39,479 Speaker 5: nitpicky execution wise, yeah, Borgalis misses a field goal like 2045 01:33:39,600 --> 01:33:42,360 Speaker 5: that's poor execution. Like, So to your point, I guess 2046 01:33:42,400 --> 01:33:44,599 Speaker 5: I agree with you. They didn't execute quite as well 2047 01:33:45,520 --> 01:33:47,639 Speaker 5: in the second half. But I think that they did 2048 01:33:47,840 --> 01:33:51,360 Speaker 5: everything that they wanted to do in the second half. 2049 01:33:51,920 --> 01:33:54,360 Speaker 5: I think they accomplished their players and executed the Now 2050 01:33:54,400 --> 01:33:57,360 Speaker 5: they were different plays. We weren't throwing bombs all over 2051 01:33:57,400 --> 01:33:59,360 Speaker 5: the place in the second half because they didn't need to. 2052 01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:02,439 Speaker 5: But I think that they executed and chewed I think 2053 01:34:02,479 --> 01:34:05,760 Speaker 5: there was a possession in the fourth quarter that they 2054 01:34:05,840 --> 01:34:08,360 Speaker 5: went like forty yards and chewed up like seven minutes 2055 01:34:08,400 --> 01:34:11,760 Speaker 5: of clock, six and a half minutes like clock. That's 2056 01:34:12,439 --> 01:34:13,160 Speaker 5: exactly what. 2057 01:34:13,240 --> 01:34:13,720 Speaker 2: I want to do. 2058 01:34:14,560 --> 01:34:16,720 Speaker 5: Like that to me is executing. I don't care if 2059 01:34:16,760 --> 01:34:19,040 Speaker 5: I score, you know, thirty in the first half. I 2060 01:34:19,040 --> 01:34:20,320 Speaker 5: don't need thirty in the second half. 2061 01:34:20,439 --> 01:34:23,040 Speaker 2: Let's you know, read the room. Rabel could have said, 2062 01:34:23,280 --> 01:34:25,960 Speaker 2: you know, we expended a lot of energy in that 2063 01:34:26,160 --> 01:34:29,720 Speaker 2: first half, energy that you know, we probably had to 2064 01:34:30,360 --> 01:34:33,439 Speaker 2: find somewhere because we're running out of gas here getting 2065 01:34:33,479 --> 01:34:36,840 Speaker 2: into the buy. I'm I'm factoring that into how we 2066 01:34:37,000 --> 01:34:39,120 Speaker 2: did the second half, and if I have the opportunity 2067 01:34:39,240 --> 01:34:41,840 Speaker 2: like I did, like Paul said to kind of milk clock, 2068 01:34:41,920 --> 01:34:44,479 Speaker 2: I'm gonna take it rather than ask these guys to be, 2069 01:34:45,680 --> 01:34:47,840 Speaker 2: you know, all out like they were in the first half. 2070 01:34:48,000 --> 01:34:51,360 Speaker 3: I think the one of the most like sneaky good 2071 01:34:51,400 --> 01:34:54,360 Speaker 3: things about Mike Rabel is understanding like how to choke 2072 01:34:54,400 --> 01:34:56,720 Speaker 3: out a team and like how to like truly end 2073 01:34:56,760 --> 01:34:59,400 Speaker 3: the game, because I think what the emailer is saying, 2074 01:35:00,280 --> 01:35:02,840 Speaker 3: I think a lot of teams fall into that trap 2075 01:35:03,920 --> 01:35:06,800 Speaker 3: and they start throwing. They keep throwing like crazy, and 2076 01:35:06,840 --> 01:35:10,320 Speaker 3: they keep going bombs away and it's either turnovers or 2077 01:35:10,680 --> 01:35:12,920 Speaker 3: quick three and outs, and all of a sudden, you 2078 01:35:13,000 --> 01:35:16,240 Speaker 3: got a game on your hands. Like it's just there's 2079 01:35:16,280 --> 01:35:19,840 Speaker 3: been more blown leads this year than any other year 2080 01:35:19,920 --> 01:35:21,160 Speaker 3: in like the last like decade. 2081 01:35:21,240 --> 01:35:23,360 Speaker 5: So I'm just looking at the drive chart the second 2082 01:35:23,439 --> 01:35:26,040 Speaker 5: half drives. They really had three drives in the second half. 2083 01:35:26,439 --> 01:35:29,360 Speaker 5: They chewed up six thirty six, four oh eight and 2084 01:35:29,520 --> 01:35:32,360 Speaker 5: five twenty seven. They had the ball for seventeen minutes 2085 01:35:32,400 --> 01:35:36,920 Speaker 5: of the second half. That's dominance, like, they did exactly 2086 01:35:36,960 --> 01:35:38,559 Speaker 5: what they wanted to do. They didn't need to score 2087 01:35:38,640 --> 01:35:41,320 Speaker 5: thirty more points. They needed to run the clock out, 2088 01:35:42,400 --> 01:35:44,759 Speaker 5: which is kind of why I was a little critical 2089 01:35:45,000 --> 01:35:48,800 Speaker 5: of them throwing the ball at the very end, trying like, 2090 01:35:48,960 --> 01:35:51,519 Speaker 5: in my view, trying to get another touchdown that didn't 2091 01:35:51,560 --> 01:35:54,400 Speaker 5: need to be scored. I don't care that they only 2092 01:35:54,439 --> 01:35:57,040 Speaker 5: scored whatever points in the second half. Through they scored 2093 01:35:57,080 --> 01:35:59,800 Speaker 5: three points. I don't feel like they didn't need any points. 2094 01:36:00,080 --> 01:36:02,640 Speaker 5: Now again from an exit, you know, strictly semantics. From 2095 01:36:02,680 --> 01:36:06,840 Speaker 5: Sebastian's email, they didn't execute quite as well because they 2096 01:36:06,880 --> 01:36:10,160 Speaker 5: missed the field goal and they didn't get a touchdown. 2097 01:36:10,240 --> 01:36:12,320 Speaker 5: They got a penalty, then got a touchdown call back, 2098 01:36:12,400 --> 01:36:15,360 Speaker 5: So that's not as good of executions in the first half. 2099 01:36:15,439 --> 01:36:17,920 Speaker 5: But I think what they wanted to do. I don't 2100 01:36:17,920 --> 01:36:19,479 Speaker 5: think they let their foot off the gas. I think 2101 01:36:19,520 --> 01:36:20,920 Speaker 5: they wanted to choke him out and they did. 2102 01:36:21,160 --> 01:36:24,320 Speaker 2: Sebastian also has a hot take, I don't want Campbell 2103 01:36:24,360 --> 01:36:27,040 Speaker 2: to return after he's eligible to return. I would sit 2104 01:36:27,160 --> 01:36:30,080 Speaker 2: him until the AFC Championship game to make sure it's 2105 01:36:30,120 --> 01:36:33,519 Speaker 2: worth bringing him back and potentially making his injury regress 2106 01:36:33,600 --> 01:36:35,800 Speaker 2: or make it worse. And yes, he can get worse 2107 01:36:35,920 --> 01:36:37,639 Speaker 2: if his whole knee buckles on the field. 2108 01:36:38,200 --> 01:36:40,439 Speaker 5: I want him to return when he's healthy enough to return. 2109 01:36:40,880 --> 01:36:44,519 Speaker 5: I don't know that that's what can be saved, Chip, 2110 01:36:44,520 --> 01:36:45,840 Speaker 5: I don't know that that's going to be this year. 2111 01:36:46,600 --> 01:36:47,240 Speaker 2: Music doctors. 2112 01:36:47,360 --> 01:36:49,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, if the doctor says he's he's healthy enough to play, 2113 01:36:50,000 --> 01:36:51,519 Speaker 5: then I want him to play, even if that's the 2114 01:36:51,560 --> 01:36:53,800 Speaker 5: Miami game, the meaningless Week eighteen game. 2115 01:36:54,120 --> 01:36:55,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it'd be good to get him if 2116 01:36:55,960 --> 01:36:56,400 Speaker 3: he's healthy. 2117 01:36:56,520 --> 01:36:57,920 Speaker 5: I don't think that he's going to be able to 2118 01:36:57,960 --> 01:36:59,599 Speaker 5: play in that game, and I'm not sure he's going 2119 01:36:59,640 --> 01:37:01,120 Speaker 5: to be able to play in the playoffs. But if 2120 01:37:01,240 --> 01:37:04,840 Speaker 5: the doctors clear him, I want him playing, right, doesn't 2121 01:37:04,880 --> 01:37:05,400 Speaker 5: everybody else? 2122 01:37:05,479 --> 01:37:06,360 Speaker 2: Yeah?

It was off right. 2144 01:37:58,320 --> 01:38:03,919 Speaker 2: That's not a rule, that's a mandate that it's interesting. 2145 01:38:04,120 --> 01:38:08,920 Speaker 2: It was mighty interesting email from Carol and Georgia. First 2146 01:38:08,920 --> 01:38:10,760 Speaker 2: of all, she says, I use grammarly to write this 2147 01:38:10,880 --> 01:38:12,600 Speaker 2: email same, so thank you. 2148 01:38:12,840 --> 01:38:14,080 Speaker 1: It's not just the greatest he said. 2149 01:38:14,120 --> 01:38:18,000 Speaker 2: According to the soccer teams in Brazil, that's very high altitude. 2150 01:38:19,360 --> 01:38:22,320 Speaker 2: The best strategy is to arrive to play just before 2151 01:38:22,360 --> 01:38:25,800 Speaker 2: the game. The body takes some hours to feel the altitude, 2152 01:38:25,880 --> 01:38:28,240 Speaker 2: so you must use this interval to play. I don't 2153 01:38:28,320 --> 01:38:31,000 Speaker 2: know what will happen after But the players in Brazil 2154 01:38:31,120 --> 01:38:35,680 Speaker 2: are alive and fine. I don't know, so I have. 2155 01:38:35,840 --> 01:38:38,040 Speaker 3: Heard that now you do have to be there the 2156 01:38:38,080 --> 01:38:39,840 Speaker 3: day like it's an NFL rule that you have to 2157 01:38:39,880 --> 01:38:42,479 Speaker 3: be there the day before, right, So there's nothing that 2158 01:38:42,640 --> 01:38:45,360 Speaker 3: you can You can't fly in the day of the game. 2159 01:38:46,120 --> 01:38:49,599 Speaker 3: Not that you would want to, but you can't. So yeah, 2160 01:38:49,720 --> 01:38:50,160 Speaker 3: especially a. 2161 01:38:50,320 --> 01:38:54,400 Speaker 5: Bad length of a trip. Yeah, we're got to save 2162 01:38:54,479 --> 01:38:59,680 Speaker 5: this altitude talk like they're not playing Denver anytime soon. No, 2163 01:38:59,840 --> 01:39:03,360 Speaker 5: I you know, I started, but I'm saying the whole like, 2164 01:39:03,880 --> 01:39:05,599 Speaker 5: you know, how to deal with it. This is if 2165 01:39:05,640 --> 01:39:07,640 Speaker 5: they're playing Denver in the playoffs. This is what the 2166 01:39:07,680 --> 01:39:10,000 Speaker 5: whole week is going to be. But also to save 2167 01:39:10,080 --> 01:39:10,920 Speaker 5: some of this good stuff. 2168 01:39:11,000 --> 01:39:12,600 Speaker 3: I think the other thing too for me with this 2169 01:39:12,800 --> 01:39:16,160 Speaker 3: is like it's gonna be the AFC Championship game, and 2170 01:39:16,320 --> 01:39:18,719 Speaker 3: like at that point you're gonna have be It's gonna. 2171 01:39:18,479 --> 01:39:21,960 Speaker 5: Be hard, you know, like it's not according to you yesterday. 2172 01:39:22,200 --> 01:39:24,320 Speaker 3: You're gonna be playing a good team. It's gonna be 2173 01:39:24,400 --> 01:39:27,800 Speaker 3: high stakes, it's gonna be hard. So like wherever you're 2174 01:39:27,840 --> 01:39:31,240 Speaker 3: playing it, it's you're in the a FC championship game, 2175 01:39:31,400 --> 01:39:34,360 Speaker 3: like that's where he lost all them weights. Yeah yeah, 2176 01:39:35,080 --> 01:39:37,160 Speaker 3: really quick bone to pick with the referees, which I 2177 01:39:37,240 --> 01:39:41,960 Speaker 3: know that, Like I don't know the email before this 2178 01:39:42,040 --> 01:39:42,519 Speaker 3: made me think this. 2179 01:39:43,240 --> 01:39:43,360 Speaker 2: Uh. 2180 01:39:43,520 --> 01:39:47,800 Speaker 5: They kept on calling penalties and assigning the penalty to 2181 01:39:47,880 --> 01:39:50,240 Speaker 5: the wrong player. They did several times. 2182 01:39:50,280 --> 01:39:50,640 Speaker 3: They did it. 2183 01:39:50,880 --> 01:39:53,840 Speaker 5: I've never seen seventy almost like Scott Hansen was doing that. 2184 01:39:54,520 --> 01:39:57,280 Speaker 3: I haven't seen anything like that before. So they called 2185 01:39:57,280 --> 01:39:59,720 Speaker 3: a hold on Bradbury when the hold was actually on 2186 01:39:59,800 --> 01:40:03,200 Speaker 3: bet Brown, and then they called the illegal motion that 2187 01:40:03,280 --> 01:40:05,160 Speaker 3: wiped out was because they were talking about the Henry points. 2188 01:40:05,840 --> 01:40:08,040 Speaker 3: They called it on seventy five. 2189 01:40:08,200 --> 01:40:10,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it was Ben Brown again, I know 2190 01:40:10,640 --> 01:40:10,840 Speaker 1: it was. 2191 01:40:11,080 --> 01:40:11,800 Speaker 3: It was Hunter Henry. 2192 01:40:11,880 --> 01:40:12,280 Speaker 1: It was Hunter. 2193 01:40:12,439 --> 01:40:13,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, he did. 2194 01:40:14,040 --> 01:40:17,080 Speaker 3: Happened so fast Hunter Henry didn't come set before they 2195 01:40:17,120 --> 01:40:17,720 Speaker 3: snapped the ball. 2196 01:40:17,840 --> 01:40:21,080 Speaker 5: So the penalty of twenty twenty five, the penalty of 2197 01:40:21,120 --> 01:40:23,920 Speaker 5: twenty four was the tackle being in the backfield that 2198 01:40:24,000 --> 01:40:27,400 Speaker 5: got called like fifteen times a game. This is the 2199 01:40:27,439 --> 01:40:30,040 Speaker 5: penalty this year. It drives me insane. I don't understand 2200 01:40:30,120 --> 01:40:32,760 Speaker 5: why it's even illegal to go in motion and not 2201 01:40:32,880 --> 01:40:35,800 Speaker 5: you know, recess stuff. Well, it depends on if it's 2202 01:40:35,920 --> 01:40:38,280 Speaker 5: motion or a shift correct, because if your in motion, 2203 01:40:38,600 --> 01:40:40,439 Speaker 5: if you're off the line of scrimmage in motion, you 2204 01:40:40,520 --> 01:40:42,559 Speaker 5: can be in motion, but once you go to set 2205 01:40:42,640 --> 01:40:44,360 Speaker 5: back onto the line of scrimmage, you have to come 2206 01:40:44,400 --> 01:40:46,040 Speaker 5: to a full set. And I understand the whole two 2207 01:40:46,080 --> 01:40:50,000 Speaker 5: guys in motion thing. I just like, that's not confusing anybody, 2208 01:40:50,439 --> 01:40:54,160 Speaker 5: Like the whole Miami Dolphins thing isn't. That's not like, 2209 01:40:54,320 --> 01:40:57,160 Speaker 5: oh he was he was moving, like, That's not what 2210 01:40:57,280 --> 01:40:59,240 Speaker 5: the problem was. The problem was they were like lightning. 2211 01:40:59,640 --> 01:41:01,680 Speaker 5: That was the hord thing about Miami when they were 2212 01:41:01,760 --> 01:41:03,800 Speaker 5: rolling and when McDaniel first got there. 2213 01:41:04,400 --> 01:41:06,720 Speaker 3: But it was on it was on the it was 2214 01:41:06,840 --> 01:41:10,759 Speaker 3: it was called an illegal shift, yeah, and they assigned 2215 01:41:10,800 --> 01:41:13,080 Speaker 3: it to like seventy five, And I was like that 2216 01:41:13,200 --> 01:41:16,200 Speaker 3: player does not like what are we talking about? But 2217 01:41:16,400 --> 01:41:19,640 Speaker 3: really small thing like that, that illegal motion penalty is 2218 01:41:19,680 --> 01:41:23,360 Speaker 3: on Drake, like the it's on the quarterback, the tie 2219 01:41:23,439 --> 01:41:26,240 Speaker 3: up the cadence with the with the shift and make 2220 01:41:26,320 --> 01:41:29,439 Speaker 3: sure that hunter Henry does get set before they snapped 2221 01:41:29,439 --> 01:41:32,160 Speaker 3: the ball. But I just you know, I know that 2222 01:41:32,240 --> 01:41:32,439 Speaker 3: was up. 2223 01:41:32,560 --> 01:41:35,599 Speaker 5: He also he also used an incorrect signal on a penalty. 2224 01:41:35,720 --> 01:41:36,479 Speaker 5: I forget what it was. 2225 01:41:36,840 --> 01:41:37,439 Speaker 3: It was brutal. 2226 01:41:37,479 --> 01:41:39,960 Speaker 5: I think it was an illegal man downfield and he 2227 01:41:40,200 --> 01:41:41,160 Speaker 5: did the wrong signal. 2228 01:41:41,240 --> 01:41:46,479 Speaker 2: But I forget Amir has a good billboard of case 2229 01:41:46,560 --> 01:41:50,880 Speaker 2: the Patriots whin the AFCI. Yeah, it's also it's just 2230 01:41:50,960 --> 01:41:53,360 Speaker 2: say we'll take it from here. I like that. 2231 01:41:53,640 --> 01:41:54,040 Speaker 3: That's good. 2232 01:41:54,200 --> 01:41:56,439 Speaker 2: I like that. That's great good and mirror good. 2233 01:41:56,760 --> 01:41:58,760 Speaker 3: We're gonna we're going to start a gofund me for this. 2234 01:41:58,960 --> 01:41:59,200 Speaker 9: I know. 2235 01:41:59,720 --> 01:42:03,160 Speaker 1: I remember some guy like trolling bill with billboards along 2236 01:42:03,280 --> 01:42:03,680 Speaker 1: Route one. 2237 01:42:04,200 --> 01:42:07,200 Speaker 4: One of the sports hub call her personality people, But 2238 01:42:07,320 --> 01:42:09,800 Speaker 4: I why doesn't he call they better do that the 2239 01:42:09,800 --> 01:42:10,360 Speaker 4: buffalo too. 2240 01:42:10,479 --> 01:42:12,200 Speaker 3: If mister Kraft wants to fund it, he can be 2241 01:42:12,280 --> 01:42:15,080 Speaker 3: like a silent like, we won't tell anybody the money 2242 01:42:15,160 --> 01:42:16,960 Speaker 3: is from him. Well, I might have. 2243 01:42:17,040 --> 01:42:20,600 Speaker 2: Done that a few times. Reno writes in I'm not 2244 01:42:20,800 --> 01:42:25,080 Speaker 2: seeing this overly scary defense from the Broncos. Either they're 2245 01:42:25,160 --> 01:42:28,759 Speaker 2: really good, but they're not unstoppable or shut down people 2246 01:42:29,439 --> 01:42:32,360 Speaker 2: like people want to believe their offense is mid at best, 2247 01:42:32,760 --> 01:42:36,639 Speaker 2: with wild inconsistencies because of Nicks. So yeah, I agree 2248 01:42:36,640 --> 01:42:39,080 Speaker 2: with Evan. I'd be fine seeing them in the playoffs 2249 01:42:39,160 --> 01:42:42,160 Speaker 2: home or away. Let's not forget we're undefeated in away 2250 01:42:42,240 --> 01:42:44,479 Speaker 2: games at this moment. By the way, I love that 2251 01:42:44,560 --> 01:42:47,800 Speaker 2: Evan has become a mixture of Eric in big Head. 2252 01:42:48,200 --> 01:42:50,880 Speaker 2: He gets very palady like Eric and hot headed like 2253 01:42:50,960 --> 01:42:55,400 Speaker 2: any Paul, please keep starting starting the arguments with everyone 2254 01:42:55,520 --> 01:42:59,519 Speaker 2: and Fred, please continue to instigate ps not saying we 2255 01:42:59,560 --> 01:43:01,559 Speaker 2: can't lose to the Broncos, just saying we can. 2256 01:43:01,479 --> 01:43:04,640 Speaker 5: Win two and not scared to know why I win. 2257 01:43:05,000 --> 01:43:06,760 Speaker 4: My only feeling on this is like I would just 2258 01:43:06,880 --> 01:43:08,519 Speaker 4: kind of prefer not to play in Denver, but I 2259 01:43:08,560 --> 01:43:10,960 Speaker 4: don't really care. And otherwise there's no teams that I 2260 01:43:11,080 --> 01:43:13,479 Speaker 4: really don't think the Patriots have a chance against in 2261 01:43:13,479 --> 01:43:13,920 Speaker 4: the AFC. 2262 01:43:14,640 --> 01:43:16,599 Speaker 3: They don't even have the best defense in the conference. 2263 01:43:19,120 --> 01:43:22,880 Speaker 2: Jeremiah is also with Evan. I'm with Evan. I'm so 2264 01:43:23,160 --> 01:43:26,800 Speaker 2: tired of hearing everyone's nightmares about Denver. I don't think 2265 01:43:26,880 --> 01:43:30,160 Speaker 2: our fan base just has to stare at the Broncos 2266 01:43:30,280 --> 01:43:32,200 Speaker 2: logo and clinch their fists as they yell I'm not 2267 01:43:32,280 --> 01:43:36,000 Speaker 2: afraid of you anymore. Home games in general have benefits, 2268 01:43:36,080 --> 01:43:38,519 Speaker 2: especially Denver's, but I don't think that team is good 2269 01:43:38,640 --> 01:43:43,600 Speaker 2: enough to have those factors sway the game. Yeah, I agree, I. 2270 01:43:43,640 --> 01:43:45,560 Speaker 4: Mean you could say, I'd prefer not to play on 2271 01:43:45,600 --> 01:43:47,160 Speaker 4: the road generally, you know what I mean, It's just 2272 01:43:48,000 --> 01:43:49,479 Speaker 4: much rather be just make sure. 2273 01:43:51,479 --> 01:43:54,559 Speaker 5: Too to have anything sweat like that they would benefit 2274 01:43:54,640 --> 01:43:57,280 Speaker 5: from being at home? Sure, I don't, So why wouldn't 2275 01:43:57,280 --> 01:43:57,840 Speaker 5: you think that, Denver? 2276 01:43:57,920 --> 01:44:00,280 Speaker 3: Would I think to only rewigh the Patriots if it 2277 01:44:00,360 --> 01:44:02,040 Speaker 3: from playing at home as if? Like but the question 2278 01:44:02,040 --> 01:44:04,479 Speaker 3: they draw, like the Chargers or the Jaguars. 2279 01:44:04,800 --> 01:44:09,040 Speaker 2: Teams or more importantly, our team's fan base is scared 2280 01:44:09,080 --> 01:44:10,719 Speaker 2: of playing the Patriots in Jillette. 2281 01:44:11,760 --> 01:44:13,960 Speaker 5: I don't think that anybody in the AFC should be 2282 01:44:14,000 --> 01:44:17,439 Speaker 5: afraid of anybody. Yeah, I don't think any fan base 2283 01:44:17,479 --> 01:44:19,920 Speaker 5: in the AFC should be afraid of playing anywhere against 2284 01:44:19,920 --> 01:44:23,640 Speaker 5: anything established. It's a completely flat conference, that's all it 2285 01:44:23,720 --> 01:44:26,320 Speaker 5: has been the whole year. No one's really been able to, 2286 01:44:27,400 --> 01:44:28,360 Speaker 5: you know, dominate. 2287 01:44:28,520 --> 01:44:30,120 Speaker 4: And a lot of the parts we're talking about are 2288 01:44:30,200 --> 01:44:32,280 Speaker 4: unproven teams, Like if it was Tom Brady and that 2289 01:44:32,360 --> 01:44:33,800 Speaker 4: old Patriots team, Like, yeah, I don't want to go 2290 01:44:33,800 --> 01:44:35,600 Speaker 4: to Foxboro, But what do you know about Bonnicks in 2291 01:44:35,600 --> 01:44:36,040 Speaker 4: the playoffs? 2292 01:44:36,040 --> 01:44:37,479 Speaker 1: You know, what do you know about Tom Brady. 2293 01:44:37,280 --> 01:44:39,320 Speaker 2: And in the playoffs? 2294 01:44:39,439 --> 01:44:43,160 Speaker 5: But you know, they didn't really I mean, he threw 2295 01:44:43,200 --> 01:44:44,840 Speaker 5: a bomb for a touchdown on the first drive, and 2296 01:44:44,880 --> 01:44:46,599 Speaker 5: I think he did nothing the whole rest of the game. 2297 01:44:46,880 --> 01:44:49,680 Speaker 3: I just am And this is not even a Denver thing, 2298 01:44:49,880 --> 01:44:53,240 Speaker 3: It's just an overall thing. I just think that the 2299 01:44:53,360 --> 01:44:57,719 Speaker 3: home field advantage thing is becoming really overrated across the NFL. 2300 01:44:58,200 --> 01:45:00,960 Speaker 3: It just for the past like five to ten years, 2301 01:45:01,600 --> 01:45:05,839 Speaker 3: there really is in the huge discrepancy home road splits 2302 01:45:05,880 --> 01:45:09,880 Speaker 3: and things like that. I just think that it's become 2303 01:45:09,880 --> 01:45:12,160 Speaker 3: a little bit overrated in terms of a talking point. 2304 01:45:12,520 --> 01:45:17,240 Speaker 3: And I don't think anybody was necessarily worried about playing here. 2305 01:45:17,520 --> 01:45:19,400 Speaker 3: I think they were worried about playing Tom Brady. 2306 01:45:19,600 --> 01:45:22,320 Speaker 4: H So the elements, I mean, I would say the 2307 01:45:22,360 --> 01:45:24,519 Speaker 4: elements like ideally Peyton Manning doesn't want to come here 2308 01:45:24,560 --> 01:45:25,559 Speaker 4: when a snowstorm, I mean. 2309 01:45:25,520 --> 01:45:26,639 Speaker 2: Ideally swirling winds. 2310 01:45:26,720 --> 01:45:29,360 Speaker 1: Yeah no, no, But I mean I think everywhere there's something. 2311 01:45:29,439 --> 01:45:31,280 Speaker 5: I think Mike is right. I think if you if 2312 01:45:31,320 --> 01:45:32,920 Speaker 5: you were going to play Tom Brady, you want to 2313 01:45:32,920 --> 01:45:36,680 Speaker 5: play him in like hot weather. You don't want to 2314 01:45:36,680 --> 01:45:39,440 Speaker 5: play him in the snow. He never lost in those conditions, 2315 01:45:39,720 --> 01:45:42,160 Speaker 5: Like that's that was part of it. Now, you don't 2316 01:45:42,160 --> 01:45:45,400 Speaker 5: want to play Brady anywhere, because Brady's you know, we 2317 01:45:45,960 --> 01:45:48,320 Speaker 5: used to joke about this. Brady's record indoors, Brady's record 2318 01:45:48,320 --> 01:45:51,679 Speaker 5: out doors, Brady's record when it's under thirty degree, Brady dominated, 2319 01:45:51,720 --> 01:45:52,920 Speaker 5: no matter what the conditions were. 2320 01:45:52,840 --> 01:45:55,000 Speaker 1: Down by a touchdown going into the fourth quarter, dominates. 2321 01:45:55,040 --> 01:45:58,320 Speaker 5: But I would rather play Brady if I'm an opponent 2322 01:45:58,840 --> 01:46:02,120 Speaker 5: in conditions that I like. Yeah, I know Brady's going 2323 01:46:02,200 --> 01:46:04,840 Speaker 5: to be great regardless of conditions, so if I can 2324 01:46:04,960 --> 01:46:07,400 Speaker 5: match him, I need my conditions. Yeah, And that's why 2325 01:46:07,439 --> 01:46:10,160 Speaker 5: I like playing in January here was that's you know, 2326 01:46:10,240 --> 01:46:11,760 Speaker 5: for Peyton Manning, that's not not deal. 2327 01:46:12,040 --> 01:46:14,720 Speaker 4: Like Evan's point of the Chargers or the Jaguars, you know, 2328 01:46:14,800 --> 01:46:16,439 Speaker 4: having to come up here in January not ideal. 2329 01:46:16,479 --> 01:46:21,080 Speaker 5: But but Baltimore they don't care because they like those 2330 01:46:21,120 --> 01:46:21,640 Speaker 5: conditions Like. 2331 01:46:21,640 --> 01:46:25,559 Speaker 2: A honey badger. They don't care. Zach from doesn't say 2332 01:46:25,560 --> 01:46:27,960 Speaker 2: where Eric wouldn't like that has a little would you 2333 01:46:28,120 --> 01:46:31,880 Speaker 2: rather think? Okay, would you rather option a Patriots win 2334 01:46:31,920 --> 01:46:35,000 Speaker 2: their remaining four games with resounding wins over the Bills 2335 01:46:35,040 --> 01:46:37,880 Speaker 2: and Ravens and get the number one overall seed after 2336 01:46:38,040 --> 01:46:40,439 Speaker 2: first round bye. They lose to the Chiefs in the 2337 01:46:40,560 --> 01:46:45,200 Speaker 2: divisional round Option B. Patriots go two and two in 2338 01:46:45,280 --> 01:46:48,479 Speaker 2: their final four games, losing to the Bills and the Ravens. 2339 01:46:48,760 --> 01:46:51,280 Speaker 2: They beat a middling team like the Jaguars in the 2340 01:46:51,360 --> 01:46:55,080 Speaker 2: wild round card Wildcard round, then lose a game to 2341 01:46:55,160 --> 01:46:56,639 Speaker 2: the Chiefs in the divisional round. 2342 01:46:57,240 --> 01:47:01,120 Speaker 3: Win a playoff game, So I'll play game both ways. 2343 01:47:01,160 --> 01:47:02,600 Speaker 1: You're winning the AFC East, which the. 2344 01:47:02,640 --> 01:47:04,920 Speaker 5: Ways in the division around to Kansas City. 2345 01:47:05,400 --> 01:47:08,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, so when one of them you have a playoff game, 2346 01:47:08,560 --> 01:47:10,000 Speaker 3: win Drake may won a playoff game. 2347 01:47:10,080 --> 01:47:13,680 Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, okay, yeah, all right, get the division. That's 2348 01:47:13,720 --> 01:47:15,240 Speaker 4: my first goal. Get the division. 2349 01:47:15,280 --> 01:47:18,639 Speaker 2: Like decision's over, you know, I know it's aficial till 2350 01:47:18,680 --> 01:47:19,000 Speaker 2: it's over. 2351 01:47:19,560 --> 01:47:19,680 Speaker 13: Right. 2352 01:47:20,960 --> 01:47:23,280 Speaker 2: Also, the Patriots are back to their winning ways, and 2353 01:47:23,400 --> 01:47:25,800 Speaker 2: I love to bring back the tradition of buying you 2354 01:47:25,880 --> 01:47:29,640 Speaker 2: guys lunch.

I don't want to 2444 01:51:27,840 --> 01:51:29,120 Speaker 12: play that come down down. 2445 01:51:29,680 --> 01:51:32,800 Speaker 2: I want to play him here and would I well 2446 01:51:32,840 --> 01:51:36,240 Speaker 2: everybody would rather play him here, all right, thanks Aldred, 2447 01:51:37,400 --> 01:51:37,960 Speaker 2: Yeah I did. 2448 01:51:38,320 --> 01:51:40,640 Speaker 3: And I think it's Paul said, like, we'll get to 2449 01:51:40,720 --> 01:51:42,040 Speaker 3: it when we get to it, which he's right. But 2450 01:51:42,280 --> 01:51:45,479 Speaker 3: if you look at Denver's last four games of their schedule, 2451 01:51:45,600 --> 01:51:50,360 Speaker 3: it's Packers, Chiefs, Chargers, Jaguars or their last four games, 2452 01:51:50,520 --> 01:51:53,040 Speaker 3: like the way that they get the number one seed, 2453 01:51:53,080 --> 01:51:55,680 Speaker 3: other than like they have the tie breakers over the Patriots. 2454 01:51:56,040 --> 01:51:57,920 Speaker 3: So both teams went out and Denver is going to 2455 01:51:57,960 --> 01:51:59,519 Speaker 3: be the number one seed. But I don't think Denver's 2456 01:51:59,600 --> 01:51:59,960 Speaker 3: winning out. 2457 01:52:00,280 --> 01:52:02,240 Speaker 5: So but winning out, But what if both teams go 2458 01:52:02,360 --> 01:52:06,040 Speaker 5: too and two or in Denver's case three, It depends 2459 01:52:06,080 --> 01:52:09,920 Speaker 5: on this breaker. Why I always say, like, don't just 2460 01:52:10,280 --> 01:52:13,519 Speaker 5: blanket tie breaker? They have the tiebreaker, So I believe Now. 2461 01:52:13,520 --> 01:52:16,680 Speaker 2: If it's AC, I believe it Chargers. 2462 01:52:17,240 --> 01:52:19,800 Speaker 3: Well, I but I believe it would it would. It 2463 01:52:19,800 --> 01:52:22,479 Speaker 3: wouldn't matter because as long as they beat the Raiders, 2464 01:52:22,920 --> 01:52:26,479 Speaker 3: they'll have the common opponent tiebreaker. And then the Patriots 2465 01:52:26,600 --> 01:52:28,200 Speaker 3: last four games are all against the a f C. 2466 01:52:29,360 --> 01:52:32,600 Speaker 3: So if the Patriots not common that makes sense, but 2467 01:52:32,720 --> 01:52:35,599 Speaker 3: they're all but it's conference records is more important. 2468 01:52:35,720 --> 01:52:35,960 Speaker 2: Okay. 2469 01:52:36,040 --> 01:52:37,720 Speaker 3: So if they go like two and two and in 2470 01:52:37,840 --> 01:52:40,479 Speaker 3: the last four games of the season, then Denver is 2471 01:52:40,520 --> 01:52:44,000 Speaker 3: gonna it's gonna it's gonna be Denver with the tiebreakers. 2472 01:52:44,080 --> 01:52:48,080 Speaker 5: So that's the So it's the would you say the Chargers, Chiefs, 2473 01:52:48,120 --> 01:52:52,280 Speaker 5: the Chiefs, Jackson, Patriots didn't play any of those teams. 2474 01:52:52,240 --> 01:52:54,040 Speaker 3: So it's about the a f C. It will be 2475 01:52:54,080 --> 01:52:55,479 Speaker 3: about the conference record. 2476 01:52:55,600 --> 01:53:01,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, Mike's in New York. What's up, Mike, Mike, Mike, 2477 01:53:01,439 --> 01:53:06,280 Speaker 2: Mike Wednesday, hump Day? Where are you? He's gone home? 2478 01:53:07,320 --> 01:53:10,280 Speaker 2: All right, that's okay, Mike, get another chance. 2479 01:53:11,600 --> 01:53:13,280 Speaker 5: I just do a lot of different topics today. 2480 01:53:13,360 --> 01:53:17,040 Speaker 4: It is interesting, though, Kathy, like all the odds that 2481 01:53:17,160 --> 01:53:20,439 Speaker 4: it really seems, based on what I've seen, it's Patriots 2482 01:53:20,439 --> 01:53:21,040 Speaker 4: are Broncos. 2483 01:53:21,120 --> 01:53:23,120 Speaker 1: That's the one seed, right, It's the Patriots. 2484 01:53:23,439 --> 01:53:25,800 Speaker 5: Those are the biggest team I think that has a 2485 01:53:26,160 --> 01:53:28,439 Speaker 5: minute chance, and I think it's less than five percent 2486 01:53:28,600 --> 01:53:33,840 Speaker 5: is Buffalo because Buffalo could conceivably, you know, steal the 2487 01:53:33,920 --> 01:53:36,360 Speaker 5: division and then you know, you get into all the 2488 01:53:36,439 --> 01:53:39,479 Speaker 5: different stuff if that tough schedule that Evan talked about 2489 01:53:39,479 --> 01:53:40,599 Speaker 5: with the Broncos comes into play. 2490 01:53:40,640 --> 01:53:43,920 Speaker 3: But I think it's just yeah, yeah, the Patriots right 2491 01:53:43,920 --> 01:53:46,400 Speaker 3: now are slave favorites to be the one seed in 2492 01:53:46,439 --> 01:53:48,519 Speaker 3: most places. But it's because they're back end of their 2493 01:53:48,560 --> 01:53:53,599 Speaker 3: schedules easier than Denvers. So not by much, honestly, because 2494 01:53:53,640 --> 01:53:56,080 Speaker 3: you have Baltimore and Buffalo, but they have the Jets 2495 01:53:56,120 --> 01:53:56,880 Speaker 3: and the Dolphins, and. 2496 01:53:56,920 --> 01:53:59,400 Speaker 5: They have they're easier than the Chargers and the Jets. 2497 01:53:59,439 --> 01:53:59,599 Speaker 3: Yeah. 2498 01:53:59,800 --> 01:54:01,880 Speaker 1: Right, teams who are in playoffs still in the playoff mix. 2499 01:54:02,000 --> 01:54:05,720 Speaker 2: Trying to make it do one more emails Travis and 2500 01:54:05,760 --> 01:54:09,240 Speaker 2: West Virginia. We're talking about me reading emails, he says, uh, 2501 01:54:09,960 --> 01:54:13,360 Speaker 2: And and you know, reading favorites. He says, nonsense, Fred, 2502 01:54:13,960 --> 01:54:16,360 Speaker 2: My emails are always good, and you only read about 2503 01:54:16,400 --> 01:54:19,280 Speaker 2: one out of every five I sent. Also, Kwannie doesn't 2504 01:54:19,320 --> 01:54:22,040 Speaker 2: read emails either, The only difference is that she pretends 2505 01:54:22,080 --> 01:54:24,200 Speaker 2: she didn't get any emails, while you pretend. 2506 01:54:24,080 --> 01:54:24,639 Speaker 5: You got a lot. 2507 01:54:26,439 --> 01:54:28,280 Speaker 2: It's not pretending we get a lot. 2508 01:54:30,120 --> 01:54:31,000 Speaker 5: You can't really read them all. 2509 01:54:31,080 --> 01:54:35,000 Speaker 2: All right, all right, there's a lot more emails. I'm 2510 01:54:35,040 --> 01:54:36,600 Speaker 2: sorry I didn't get to all of them.
