Welcome to Patriot's Unfiltered. 11 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 1: All right, welcome o wow to Patriots Unfiltered. I'm not 12 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 1: going to talk much. I tapped my first KEG. Now 13 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,199 Speaker 1: you would think, Brett, you went to college. Yeah, but 14 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: this is a real case. So you're saying in college 15 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 1: when I many times just kind of pushing twist that 16 00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 1: that doesn't I haven't tapped it yet. I haven't tapped 17 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: never even did that. He just showed up by people, 18 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,919 Speaker 1: did it. That's probably why I started blogging. With somebody's 19 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,039 Speaker 1: flying around the stadium with like a like Asterix plane. 20 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: I got so mad I had to blog about it, 21 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: saying Mac isn't the guy and that he's over Max. 22 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 1: So you get mad, though, Chad get mad. They don't. 23 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,199 Speaker 1: They don't have the opinions that you want. That's difference 24 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 1: between you and Fred. Fred just reads them without bias. 25 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: He just reads the emails. Am I allowed to call 26 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: out other PU listeners slash callers? If so, I would 27 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: like to call out Todd and North Carolina for being 28 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: a fraud. A week or two ago, you called him 29 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 1: out for all the background noise when he called into 30 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: the show. He claimed he didn't know why there was 31 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 1: so much noise, and then he might have been doing 32 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: dishes or something. I have a hard time believing this story. 33 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: Let's go to Todd and North Carolina. Todd, if you 34 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 1: called it perfect, if you did that on purpose, me, 35 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: that was well done. My friend is Patriot's Unfiltered fueled 36 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: by Dunking. All right, welcome the Patriots Unfiltered.

So I don't know, 46 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:22,360 Speaker 1: we'll see everybody's at Bill right now, so I'm sure 47 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: they'll be trickling. I got my voice back. That was 48 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: most tough listening to that, U rejoiner. It wasn't a rejoiner, 49 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: just a joiner. Right. It's tough going overseas and open. Thanks, 50 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 1: I'm learning the lingo. So while Bill is in the 51 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: middle of his press conference little terms open, he seems 52 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 1: to be in a decent mood. Jets of the Jets. Yeah, 53 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: Jets are the Jets. Uh, you know, I'm seeing and 54 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: I'm glad that people are taking this one seriously. But biggest, 55 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: biggest Jets game here in a decade? Is that you 56 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: think this is the biggest game here since since that 57 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: playoff game? My god, I don't rank them. I don't know. 58 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: I mean, it's you know now that you say you 59 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 1: have to start thinking back I guess it's hard to 60 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 1: imagine a meaningful one. I think that year that I 61 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 1: brought up yesterday and I maybe sixteen ish when the 62 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:13,839 Speaker 1: Brandon Marshall, Eric Decker, Ryan Fitzpatrick, they had a chance 63 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: to win that game. I think in sort of solidify 64 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 1: a playoff spot. I think they won ten games that 65 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: year and fell excuse me the tailpipe. Yeah, I'm still 66 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: fighting the stupid cough. Um, you're not gonna fall bad. Yeah, 67 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 1: it's not. The COVID I was tested. Thanks, Thanks for 68 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: the concern though, covid bro. You and vote can go 69 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: and make sure everybody's getting their tests Covid covid bro. 70 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: Um that that one was. That one might might have 71 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 1: been in in the conversation. You know, they've had some 72 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: some decent games, but you know, in terms of implications 73 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: on both sides, this one's up there. Yeah. I mean, 74 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,839 Speaker 1: I would say the forty five to three one which 75 00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: came yea four was still kind of a meaning full games, 76 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: A big game lost earlier in the season, and you know, 77 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: you had some questions, but well, a lot of people, 78 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: you know a lot of people say, well, you know, 79 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: if if you have playoff aspirations, is the must win 80 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: for the Patriots. It's also a must win for the Jets, 81 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 1: Isn't it pretty much less so for them? But yes, 82 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 1: I would, I would call it a must win for 83 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: both sides. But I think for the Patriots to be 84 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 1: two games behind the entire division, Yeah, and you have 85 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 1: to pass two of those teams for wild cards, that's hard. Yeah. 86 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I think I may said a little bit yesterday, 87 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: but I feel like this this game kind of sets 88 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: the floor for the Patriots season. And you know, not 89 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: that I think they're going to lose the games going out, 90 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 1: but I think that you could make a case that 91 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: they would lose every game after this, Like you could 92 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 1: make an easy case that they lose to all these 93 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: teams that they have lined up, Buffalo, Miami, Arizona. You know. 94 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not saying it's going to happen. You can't, 95 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: but you could make the case into Mike's point. And 96 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 1: you know, this is somewhat interesting given the fact that 97 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 1: one of the teams that they play is two and 98 00:04:55,800 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 1: seven currently. But according to Vegas, as of now, this 99 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: is the last game on the schedule, the Patriots are favored. 100 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: Is that right? So things can change? I mean when 101 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: when they play the Cardinals, when they played the Raiders, 102 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 1: when they played the Bengals. Who knows they could be favored, 103 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: but not right now they're not. So Yeah, to Mike's point, 104 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 1: nobody believes that everybody against us, you got you gotta 105 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,719 Speaker 1: win this one. I think it's a must win. I do. Yeah, 106 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: me too, me too, And I mean it's it just 107 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: gives you a chance to make all these games interesting 108 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: going forward, not to say that they won't. And I mean, 109 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: even if they were to lose this game, which I 110 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: think is a possibility for sure, you know, I think 111 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: they can still bounce back and be talking to Evan 112 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: a little bit about Minnesota. I mean, all those teams 113 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: I can, like you probably, like Paul said, they're not favored, 114 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 1: so you would say I can make a case for Minnesota. 115 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: They they're what are they what's their records at seven 116 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: eight one, one eight and one right now? Um, But 117 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: you know, I think they'll they'll give those teams some 118 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: some challenges, but this is just one to start things 119 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: off against the team that's gonna come here and play hard. 120 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 1: And I think it's just it's about Zach Wilson, And 121 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: you know, it's just looking too at his stats from 122 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: last week. I mean, I mean that he didn't throw 123 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 1: any interceptions in any of the other three games around 124 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: this Patriots game, Like this Patriots game was three of 125 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: them and then none two before and none against Buffalo. 126 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 1: So it's just, you know, kind of interesting that that 127 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: stands out as Zax Wilson's you know, since he came 128 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 1: back last year. Remember he got hurt in the Patriots 129 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: game last year, the second Patriots game in Foxborough. He 130 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: left that game in the first quarter. Since he came 131 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 1: back from that, both him and Mac Jones have played 132 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,279 Speaker 1: thirteen games and they both seven and six, and that 133 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: in that stretch. Max's stats are slightly better. Mac is 134 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: thirteen touchdowns, thirteen picks in those thirteen games and Zach 135 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: Wilson is nine touchdowns, seven picks. But to Mike's point, 136 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,039 Speaker 1: three of those happened in the Patriots game. Three of 137 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: those seven picks in thirteen games happened in one game. 138 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: So you can see what the formula is for New York. 139 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 1: You know, get him on the straight and narrow and 140 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: make sure he protects the football and they have a 141 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: chance to win. Yep. I mean, you know, Bill said, uh, 142 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: you know, they're probably gonna have some wrinkles for us, 143 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: and we'll have wrinkles for them. I mean the wrinkles 144 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: for them is, you know, don't let Zack Wilson throw 145 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: the ball forty fifty times, right exactly. I mean that's 146 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: all I'm saying. If I'm the Jets, just don't make 147 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: stupid decisions and let's just see where the chips fall 148 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: with this team. No need to push it. This isn't 149 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: an offense that's gonna, you know, drive us crazy and 150 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: we have all kinds of problems. Just don't make the 151 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: game killing mistake. I mean, I think the way Evan 152 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: kind of summed it up of which quarterback is going 153 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: to make the big mistake is might be what it 154 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: comes down to. If you want to boil it down 155 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: to one thing. I am concerned about the Jets defense. 156 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: I think it's legit who like sound like me? Yeah, 157 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: you get them, you know, so they're solid, you know, 158 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: front and back, So it could be another slobber knocker. 159 00:07:58,040 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: Yeah they I mean they got players at every level. 160 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 1: I mean I think that's what you're starting to see 161 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 1: come into into the picture. And even thinking beyond the 162 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: Jets of this year. I mean, they're gonna get Breese 163 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: all back next year. You know they've got these first 164 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: round picks. Quinnon Williams is you know, really playing up 165 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: to his potential. He's on pace to set career highs 166 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: and pretty much everything. He's already tied his career high 167 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: in sacks. Sauce Gardner looks legit Mosley, you know, great 168 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: middle linebackers. I mean you just you see the pieces 169 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: are falling into place for the Jets, and you know, 170 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: you wonder after this game, what direction does it kind 171 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 1: of go? How? You know, if they were to win 172 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: this game, are they ready to you know, take a 173 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,559 Speaker 1: step like that and really really step forward? Or if 174 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: they lose this game, are they going to kind of 175 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 1: go back to a wallowing and oh man, we just can't. Like, 176 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: you know, the Patriots still kind of that that problem 177 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: team from But I really do think that, you know, 178 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: they look at the game last game they play with 179 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: us as when they let get away. Yeah, so both 180 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: teams are coming off wins. Their their win was more 181 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 1: impressive than ours, but um, you know I would think 182 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: that you know, they don't want to let happen what 183 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: happened last time. Yeah, and that just starts with Zach Wilson. 184 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:04,719 Speaker 1: And I think, like Paul said yesterday, just to get 185 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: him straight and lock him in a room and you know, 186 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 1: just I think that's the step he has to take. 187 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: But um anywhere unquote Corey Davis, that was one I 188 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: wasn't quite sure if he's Sala said, he's not, probably 189 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,079 Speaker 1: not going to practice today. M Sheldon Rankin's also who's 190 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 1: one of their you know they rotate a lot of 191 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 1: bodies up front. He's one of them with Quinnin Williams. 192 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: So yeah, friend of Myers good too. And then there's 193 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:31,559 Speaker 1: one of the um offensive lineman Herbieger or something like that. 194 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: I think is um questionable, Um not going to practice 195 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: today either. So they're personnel wise, I think they're in 196 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: decent shape. The Jets, I mean, I mean obviously, yeah, 197 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: Breece Hall's not coming back, Barat Tucker is not coming back. 198 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 1: You know, those guys have been out for the year. Um. 199 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,440 Speaker 1: But and we'll see. I agree with you a point 200 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: though about you know, the makeup of the roster, because 201 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 1: if you can get the quarterback straight, and that's a 202 00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 1: huge Jeff, I mean, the Patriots are trying to do 203 00:09:59,920 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: the same thing right now. Both teams are in the 204 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: same boat quarterback wise, they have they have young quarterbacks 205 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 1: who are struggling badly. So you look at the stuff 206 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 1: around it. When you get Bruce Hall back and Michael 207 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: Carter as a you know, I think an interesting you know, 208 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,679 Speaker 1: interesting secondary, you know, passing kind of back. You get 209 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson with forty two catches in his rookie year. 210 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: It's a good solid rookie season for a wide receiver, 211 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 1: especially on a passing attack that, let's face it is limited. 212 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 1: You know, those are pretty good numbers got you know, 213 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 1: you got a veteran in Corey Davis that you know, 214 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: it's on the outside. Elijah Moore has been a disappointment lately, 215 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 1: but certainly has the ability. Um you know, and even 216 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: Denzel Mims has stepped up and made some place for 217 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: them the last couple of weeks. He made a couple 218 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,319 Speaker 1: against the Patriots in that game. This this piece is 219 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: in place to have a decent offense there. We know 220 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 1: what they can do on defense. Mike already talked about 221 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: all the personnel they have on that side of the ball. 222 00:10:55,520 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 1: If if Zach Wilson can get to the level, not 223 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:04,679 Speaker 1: star level, just you know, serviceable game manager level. They 224 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,839 Speaker 1: can win games. They have a good enough rush to 225 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 1: win games. Now, can they win a title? Not unless 226 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: he gets markedly better. They won't be a threat if 227 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:14,599 Speaker 1: he's just managing the game. But if he can be 228 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 1: a playmaker and avoid the mistakes, then they become dangerous. 229 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 1: You see some of the Jets fans and blogger types 230 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: that I tend to mingle with, bog my boy, Joe 231 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: Caproso turn on the Jets. But you know, I mean 232 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 1: you are to a good point, Paul. Him and Mac 233 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,319 Speaker 1: are kind of similar numbers right now. But I think 234 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 1: you could go back to when they were coming out, 235 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 1: and you know, Zach Wilson still has that arm that 236 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: you knew we had coming out, and so it's like 237 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,079 Speaker 1: you're both kind of hoping for the same thing. I 238 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: think Patriots fans are just hoping, can Mac just settle down, 239 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 1: stop making the mistakes, take take what's there. But I 240 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: don't think that I have still have the ceiling hopes 241 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 1: for Mac that even as like a Jets fan hoping 242 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:53,599 Speaker 1: the same thing for that, Can he just take the 243 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 1: plays that they're there, because then once he does I 244 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 1: feel like he might actually be able to use some 245 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: of the skill sets that make him stand out and 246 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: that made him, you know, a top three pick in 247 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: the league. So he still has some of that intrigue, 248 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 1: but it's just the mistakes for him to clean it up. 249 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: Can he just come in be a game manager kind 250 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: of like Sanchez? Did? I mean to keep bringing that 251 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 1: up in twenty ten, but you know, just I mean, 252 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 1: certainly I remember one touchdown he threw that it just 253 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: absolutely laser Antonio Holmes in the back of the end zone, 254 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: you know, but it was a lot of just you know, 255 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: distribute the ball, don't make the key mistakes, and that 256 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:25,680 Speaker 1: that's the kind of game that scares me. What's the 257 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,959 Speaker 1: weather supposed to be like for Sunday? We should gets cow. 258 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 1: We haven't let me check. I don't know. I think 259 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: it's I think it's nice. It's like in the in 260 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: the forties. But Sonny, yeah, yeah, Sonny for thirty nine degrees, 261 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:42,079 Speaker 1: so perfect football football weather. Maybe a little chili tell 262 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: him it might be a blizzard in Buffalo. Yeah, that too. 263 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 1: So could have to Shaun Watson making his potential. Oh no, 264 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,320 Speaker 1: he didn't play. He can't play. It. He's just practiced, 265 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 1: just practice. I see, I saw you just getting starting 266 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:58,079 Speaker 1: to get some some reps. So good for the couple. More. 267 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: I believe he comes back against Houston. It's interesting how 268 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 1: that works. The suspension. He was able to wake eleven then, yeah, 269 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,839 Speaker 1: it's eleven games he had to he has to sit 270 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,319 Speaker 1: eleven games. That was the suspension, but he's allowed to 271 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,679 Speaker 1: put a couple to ramp the ramp up. They give 272 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 1: you the ramp up, so that would be a week twelve. Yeah, yeah, 273 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 1: who they got, but maybe they can cause some problems 274 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: here down the stretch. Yeah. Baltimore, New Orleans, Washington, Pittsburgh. 275 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 1: Not really um, but yeah, well goat play Cincinnati. How 276 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 1: do you feel Another thing I was thinking about watch 277 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,319 Speaker 1: I was walking out yesterday a little cold. Um, you know, 278 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 1: how do you feel about Mac and the weather now? 279 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: Like I think that's another kind of thing that like, 280 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 1: you know, we we we talked about at least wars 281 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,839 Speaker 1: right now with him. I know, it's just it's something 282 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:43,599 Speaker 1: again though last year you felt like you had to 283 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 1: kind of build off of that, and I think he 284 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 1: thought it was an issue dealing with with weather and 285 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 1: being a Florida kid. Not really having to deal with it. 286 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:51,559 Speaker 1: So you know, things are starting to get cold now. 287 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 1: So I just wonder if that's you know, it's something 288 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: else for him. They didn't he make his weather tour. 289 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,719 Speaker 1: He went to all the different climates and practiced in 290 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,680 Speaker 1: the different climates. We'll see if it pace. I don't 291 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: think he did in cold weather in July. How do 292 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 1: you think he found much sitting in a hockey rate? 293 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: Do you work out in Antarctica? I think he did. 294 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: I think he went up to Antarctica and worked out 295 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: on an iceberg. Can you really adjust to that though? 296 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: I mean, like I just I don't know. I mean, 297 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 1: I understand what he was trying to do. Um, but 298 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: it's like getting cold some cold weather. You can't simulate 299 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 1: what it's gonna be like in the middle of December 300 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 1: and julyte Stadium. You know, that was what I thought 301 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: when I was walking out Roland. Hey mister Dartmouth this 302 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: year today, Oh boy, he's got to do his real 303 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 1: job first before he correct graces us with his take 304 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 1: his I like it when people say where's Andy these days? Yeah? No, nobody. 305 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: You even got him to laugh on that one. Tune 306 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: into whatever happened. Whatever happened to Andy? He's still here? Right, 307 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: come down on the Wednesday shows. All right? Eight five 308 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: five pass five hundred is a sickn outline. Web radio 309 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 1: at Patriots dot com is the email address. Who would 310 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 1: you rather have? Fred, Zach Wilson and Mac Jones? Oh, 311 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: I did not expect that, Boss. I don't think. I 312 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 1: have to be honest, I did not anticipate that. Pause. Um, 313 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 1: I think that having someone with physical tools, assuming that 314 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 1: he's got a head on his shoulders, is intriguing with 315 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick. Yeah, I don't think say that's what I 316 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 1: fall back on that a lot. Like you can't tell 317 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 1: me how great Bill is and then not take that 318 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 1: into consideration when you're comparing the two quarterbacks. So like 319 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 1: you watch Zach Wilson make all these mistakes, I can't 320 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: assume that they would be he'd be making all those 321 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 1: mistakes if Bill Belichick is as great as you tell 322 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: me he is, you know, And I don't mean you, 323 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 1: I mean the royal you as you know. But but 324 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 1: you know, I don't want to get into I mean, 325 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 1: we have Mac Jones, they have Zach Wilson. I don't 326 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 1: wish it was a kind of don't want to get 327 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: it into a rabbit hole. But no, I don't either. 328 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: Your show yesterday, they just can't get off the topic 329 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: of it. It's a Bill or Tom, Bill or Tom. 330 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 1: And it was because of the little Sean McCoy thing, Yeah, 331 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: you should set up like it was. There was like 332 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: a new element to it. Yeah, Sean McCoy interrupted Kay 333 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: Adams in the middle of a question to disagree with 334 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 1: the premise that Belichick is the greatest coach ever. That's 335 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 1: how they got started on it, which I only caught 336 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 1: bits and pieces of, But I think a lot of 337 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 1: what he says it always kind of catches highlights, catches headlines, 338 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 1: and people say things about it. But I mean, I 339 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 1: just I feel like he's only saying that, like he's 340 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: not this magical genius that can just wave It wasn't 341 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 1: a pretty fair It was a pretty fair summation. He 342 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 1: wasn't telling you that Belichick is not a great coach. 343 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 1: He's just saying like he's kind of like a lot 344 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 1: of other great coaches. When you take away his great player, 345 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 1: he's not quite as great. But the reason I brought 346 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 1: that up is because one of the things that I 347 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 1: don't think you can argue that he taught Brady was 348 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: the attention to details. You know, it's the preparation that 349 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: you know, that type of thing. Well, why can't you 350 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: argue that because I think I think Tom has said so, 351 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 1: I think Brady benefited greatly from Bill Belichim. Yeah, but 352 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:18,199 Speaker 1: I mean, you know exactly what would have happened if 353 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 1: he didn't have I can't argue that I would have happened. 354 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:22,640 Speaker 1: But but like that's something that like I don't think, 355 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: you know, Bill taught him how to be accurate or 356 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:27,640 Speaker 1: any of that stuff. But I think I think one 357 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 1: of the things that he did teach Tom is is 358 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 1: you know that that discipline, you know, preparing for another team, 359 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: the attention to detail, you know, that whole thing. And 360 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,200 Speaker 1: I have to think if if Wilson was here, you'd 361 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 1: be teaching him the same thing, and maybe that would 362 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: reduce mistakes. But then you could also argue against myself 363 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 1: and say, well Max making mistakes and he's PILs his coach. 364 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 1: Yeah you know so yeah, but but then you could argue, 365 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,119 Speaker 1: you know, you have a lot of arguments, you have 366 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: a lot of little guys on your shoulders, but you 367 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: could argue he'd be making more well, Mac is making 368 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: mistakes because of the the physical limitations, right, you know, yeah, 369 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,679 Speaker 1: some of those are you know, we've seen him continue 370 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:07,919 Speaker 1: to throw the ball across his body and get in 371 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 1: trouble that way. You know, So assuming that Zach Wilson 372 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,400 Speaker 1: listens and it's coachable, you would which is a big 373 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 1: which is a big assumption, by the way, because she's 374 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: shown no, I'm not sure about that, but I'm not either, 375 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 1: but um, you know, you'd be intrigued to see, Oh, 376 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: you know, what could Bill do with a guy like that? 377 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 1: You know, I just the premise for me of like 378 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 1: how much difference. And I love coaching. I love it. 379 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: I love football coaching, but I still think the players 380 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 1: are the ones who do it. And even if you 381 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: have the greatest coach in the world, to throw Bill 382 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:39,919 Speaker 1: Belichick out of it, just take any sport. It's the 383 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: greatest coach, they can only do so much, you know, 384 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 1: And like that's why it's such a weird comparison, because 385 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,159 Speaker 1: you're trying to divide up the pie fifty fifty. You know, 386 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 1: who's more, Tom, Like, it's inevitably the starting point for 387 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 1: me is it's more Tom because he's on the field executing. 388 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,400 Speaker 1: That doesn't take anything away from Bill being an amazing 389 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 1: coach with tons of experience. It's just I don't think 390 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: the general premise of coaching being ever more than a player. 391 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 1: As possible, you can be a great coach, but it 392 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: doesn't it doesn't translate like that, like it's not terrible players. 393 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 1: And you don't see too many examples of these, Like 394 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: you know, whatever you say is the list of the 395 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 1: great coaches, whoever you want to include on that, If 396 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 1: you want to include you know, Shula and Landry who 397 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 1: you know, Lombardi, whoever else, you'd be hard pressed to 398 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 1: find Bill Walsh any of these guys that don't have 399 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,880 Speaker 1: that great quarterback right next to them. You know, it's 400 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,679 Speaker 1: whether it's Marino or Montana, you know, Bart Star, you 401 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 1: know Paul Brown with you know, a hundred years ago 402 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 1: with Otto Graham. You know, like it's it's rare that 403 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 1: you just find this, Wow, what a great coach, and 404 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 1: it didn't matter, didn't matter, you know, like the whole 405 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 1: Like even Joe Gibbs, like a lot of people say, 406 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 1: like he's so impressive because he did it with three 407 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: different quarterback. I mean they had great, great talent, you know, yeah, 408 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 1: And I mean, and who wants to go through and 409 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 1: and rank those guys out, like I don't really care, 410 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 1: Like I don't like they're all great coaches. I think 411 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,639 Speaker 1: the thing that's that sets them up, what do we do? No, No, 412 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 1: that's what we do. But the thing that sets them 413 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: up are the great all time teams. And so those coaches, 414 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 1: these are all time teams. And you know, I don't 415 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: want to minimize any of the value of things you 416 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,199 Speaker 1: pointed out Fred with with Bill and the sense of 417 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,679 Speaker 1: history of the game and all the experience that he 418 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 1: has and everything that he knows. And and I think 419 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,880 Speaker 1: your point about him being relentless as a hard worker 420 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 1: as setting the tone as here early stays late, all 421 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: that kind of cliche stuff that it's become like, I 422 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 1: think that stuff is all very true. I think he 423 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 1: sets a tone here for hard work. Um. But but 424 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:43,640 Speaker 1: I think a coach can only do so much. I'll 425 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,239 Speaker 1: give an example. You know, it's we know for I 426 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:48,199 Speaker 1: know for a fact that Bill has like stood up 427 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 1: in front of the team when they're playing a certain 428 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,440 Speaker 1: other opponent and say, you know, okay, the offensive coordinators, 429 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 1: this guy he learned his offense from it. He gives 430 00:20:55,600 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: them like a history lesson. So there was a day where, um, 431 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,639 Speaker 1: I think Brady was about to or had just broke 432 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 1: a record that Babe Parilli had. You know, Babe Parilli 433 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: was an old time So we flew in Baye Perilli 434 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: was living in Colorado to meet Brady, you know, because 435 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 1: Brady just broke his record. So I was to meet 436 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 1: Brady off the practice field and walk him into the 437 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 1: visiting locker room where they had it set up where 438 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 1: he's going to meet Babe Parley. Some walk up with Brady, 439 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 1: He's like, okay, so what kind of offense did he run? 440 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 1: And I look, I don't know, but those he wonderful 441 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,160 Speaker 1: after you kissed. He wanted to know all that information 442 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 1: about Babe Parilli before he met him. I know he 443 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: got that from from Bill, the type of you know, yeah, 444 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 1: be prepared, Yeah, I don't know who you're meeting with. 445 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: The conversation starter absolutely, But I mean, I mean, I 446 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 1: think the most recent example was when they went to 447 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: Green Bay and and you know, you got the history lesson, 448 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 1: you know, just you know, and those things. Sometimes I 449 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 1: feel like it's is there really a lot of value 450 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 1: to that, like you know, like, did we really just 451 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 1: spend a half hour talker? I mean, I appreciate that, 452 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,119 Speaker 1: and that you know it he's passing that along to 453 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: another generation, especially of kids that you know, at this 454 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,199 Speaker 1: point half my age and you know, our it might 455 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: not have a sense of those kind of things. So, 456 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 1: M I don't know, it's just it's interesting. I think 457 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 1: he's an excellent coach. But but you know, trying to 458 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 1: parse it out of like anyone saying that it's more 459 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: him than Brady, Like that's it's hard to make that 460 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: in any situation with a coach and a quarterback, Like 461 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 1: I don't think I could argue a high school team 462 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 1: would be you know, it's all the coach, Like it's 463 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 1: you know, you got to have guys to execute the 464 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 1: end of the day. But but I can still really 465 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 1: admire him as a coach and think he's great. And 466 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: but I'm not sitting here trying to tell you that. 467 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: I mean we've seen the results, you know, right all right, 468 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 1: and the fact that he could keep it together. I've 469 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 1: often said this, you know, we see the teams that 470 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 1: win and then they can't consistently win, they can't keep 471 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: it going, you know, Um, it's rare. Like the Steelers 472 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 1: are a good example of a team that has been 473 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 1: able to do that. You know, they they don't win 474 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,440 Speaker 1: it every year like the Patriots were doing every other year, 475 00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: but they're always in it. You know, they're always competitive, 476 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:03,160 Speaker 1: they're always strong, um, you know, And that to me, 477 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 1: that's you know, Bill's organization. The way he kept this 478 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 1: team together during the dynasty for twenty years. You know 479 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: what it's like, Well, they had that one gap where 480 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 1: they hadn't won in ten years, but they got to 481 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: the super Bowl twice. That was still winning. That was 482 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,120 Speaker 1: twenty years of winning and being right right every year 483 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,119 Speaker 1: they were a factor, you know, And that's that's that's 484 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 1: the hardest thing in this league. It's because guys getting 485 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: entitled and you know, it's hard to keep it together. 486 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,159 Speaker 1: And he was able to do that. Yeah, I think it. 487 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 1: And that goes to another part of his coaching philosophy 488 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,479 Speaker 1: that I just I really admire, just you know, more 489 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: than a coaching philosophy, just as like the short term 490 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,159 Speaker 1: focus and you know, I think that that kind of 491 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,199 Speaker 1: mantra that he's kind of consistently had of you know, 492 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: just like today where how do you feel about three 493 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 1: games in twelve that were on the jets. I mean, 494 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 1: you know, I know it's become kind of a cliche 495 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,200 Speaker 1: that we're just you know, focusing on the next opponent. 496 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 1: But I think he really lives that. I think he 497 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 1: lives the moment, he lives the day. Um, And I 498 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 1: think that short short term focus has been you know, 499 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,919 Speaker 1: key part of teams not getting complacent, not relying on 500 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 1: past successes, those kind of things where, um, you know, 501 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 1: he was able to continually put together competitive teams. And 502 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 1: I think just what's kind of distressing of recent years 503 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 1: is just some of the bad football that's popped up, 504 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: the turnovers this year, Like those are the things that like, okay, 505 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 1: that that's not acceptable to me as far as like 506 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 1: from a coaching standpoint, when your team is continually loose 507 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:22,679 Speaker 1: with the football and you're down near the bottom, like 508 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 1: to me that that's a bad sign. So they got 509 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 1: to turn that stuff around immediately and huge key going forward. Yep, 510 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 1: all right. I eight five five past five hundred is 511 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,679 Speaker 1: the a sticket hutline eight five five pats five hundred 512 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 1: Web radio at pages dot com is the email address. 513 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: Got emails coming in, We're gonna have guests coming in, 514 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 1: you know who knows who Ever? Wednesday is what do 515 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,439 Speaker 1: we call? What we should have a name for Wednesday shows? 516 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 1: What's gonna happen Wednesdays? Something like, you know, the the 517 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,200 Speaker 1: who Who's gonna pop in? Show? Or the pop in 518 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: Show or so I don't know show, I don't know, 519 00:24:57,840 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 1: we don't know. Nobody's even popped in your popping show. 520 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 1: M m H. Todd's in North Carolina on the A 521 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: sticket huntline. What's up? Todd? Walk in Wednesdays? Walk in Wednesdays? 522 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:14,199 Speaker 1: Bad's not bad, not bad bad. So my question is, 523 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 1: if our defense can get two turnovers and the offense 524 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 1: scores between twenty four and twenty eight points, can we 525 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 1: beat the Jet? Yes? Probably? So what we need going 526 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 1: on is what two turnovers a game roughly from our 527 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 1: defense to be able to get a positive thing. Is 528 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:32,399 Speaker 1: that what we're looking at, and one or none from 529 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 1: our offense that would be that would be the cant 530 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,160 Speaker 1: plus two in the turnover plus two in the turnover. 531 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: Is it possible? Of course it is? Every game? Probably not. Yeah, 532 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: that's you don't want to go into every game saying 533 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:47,479 Speaker 1: we've got to be plus two today to win, right, 534 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,479 Speaker 1: that's not that's not a good formula. Yeah, you go 535 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 1: into a game assuming there aren't going to be any turnovers. 536 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: That's how your game plan for and if you they happen, 537 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 1: they happen. You know, that was the famous with Micaelholod Right. Oh, yeah, 538 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 1: you always assume that team plays well, right, Yeah. They 539 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,360 Speaker 1: usually have five or six games a year that they 540 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 1: have no turnovers, and they have yet to have one 541 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 1: this year. So, um, last year they only had four. 542 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:13,399 Speaker 1: But going back a few years, I mean it's just 543 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,640 Speaker 1: you know, they've had turnovers in every single game. So 544 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 1: and that doesn't even count the ones that don't turn 545 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,120 Speaker 1: out to be turnovers, you know, the drop one turnovers 546 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,120 Speaker 1: the game for the rest of the year. What is there, 547 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: What is their record for the rest of the season. 548 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 1: I mean, they might win. I'm with Fred, like, how 549 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 1: many times do the Patriots turn it over? Yeah? I 550 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,199 Speaker 1: get so, you know, get just one. But Mike just 551 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 1: told you that they've turned it over in every game. 552 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,959 Speaker 1: So if you're getting too when you're giving two, probably 553 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 1: probably four and four, you know, Yeah, that's what I 554 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 1: was thinking. Okay, all right, but if you're forcing two 555 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:50,400 Speaker 1: and you're plus two every game, you have a good 556 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 1: chance to be like seven and one, right, But that's 557 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 1: not the way you want to live, you know, hoping 558 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 1: for turnovers and thinking that that's how you win. That's 559 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:00,919 Speaker 1: not how you win. You know, you win by just 560 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 1: being better than the other team on that day. Plus, 561 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 1: I think there's like style points to the turnovers they've 562 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 1: had this year that they're they're bad. They're not like 563 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 1: punched out from behind, you know, bad decisions ball security, 564 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: just questionable decisions, which, as you said, some of those 565 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,719 Speaker 1: didn't even cost you because they dropped those interceptions. But 566 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:22,920 Speaker 1: you know you can you can live with them when 567 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 1: they're deflections or you know, you didn't see the guy 568 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 1: coming he got sacked and fumbled it. But you know, 569 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,120 Speaker 1: I just think there'd been too many here where there's 570 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,639 Speaker 1: been bad situations, especially like the Agalore one, when you 571 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 1: think if you have a chance to come back, the 572 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 1: team's got some momentum all of a sudden in your 573 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 1: mart you know, you give it right back to them. 574 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,199 Speaker 1: It's just those kind of things just they kill you, 575 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:46,920 Speaker 1: right Michael from bar Vermont, Right soon? How early does 576 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 1: Bill have the boys on the field for practice? And 577 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 1: does Bill also have the boys practice in the snow 578 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 1: and rain? Of course, Yeah, yeah, there's there was once 579 00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 1: or twice. I remember big snowstorm that they didn't they 580 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 1: didn't practice outside. That was like, well, it was just yeah, 581 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 1: I mean it. Yeah, yeah, they I've seen them do 582 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: that both ways. And I think a lot of times 583 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: it's depended on where that game is going to be 584 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 1: that particular week. You know, if they're playing in Foxborough 585 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:20,199 Speaker 1: and it's snowing out, they're probably gonna practice outside. If 586 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 1: they're playing in Minnesota and it's snowing out, you know, 587 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 1: there's a chance they might go inside. They're not necessarily 588 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:32,440 Speaker 1: preparing for that. Yeah. Um. In terms of time, they 589 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: generally practice around noon, you know. Yeah, I think they're 590 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: what do we have, right, I think they were twelve 591 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: forty today? What it was players go out on They 592 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 1: all kind of trickle out on their own, right. Yeah. 593 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: In terms of how how much before practice they're on 594 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 1: the field, and I think there's a there's a horn 595 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 1: that goes off and they have to be ready to 596 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: go when that horn goes off. So I think it's 597 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 1: up to the individual player. Yeah. Every now and then 598 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 1: you'll see somebody, you know, chogging out, not late, but 599 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 1: like towards the end. Trying to know. It's funny. Over time, 600 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 1: they've done it different ways, like they've kind of settled 601 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 1: into like new niche now. But I remember there was 602 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: a time where they practiced toward the end of the 603 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 1: day and then open locker room. You know, they'd be 604 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 1: coming in with their pads and they'd just practice. And 605 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: then I remember they used to do it in the morning. 606 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: You know, they have done at different times, different time 607 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: of the day. I mean, this seems to make sense 608 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 1: to me, lining it up with kind of your start time. 609 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I know sometimes teams adjust their practice times 610 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 1: when they're off schedule a little bit, or playing night 611 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: games and things of that. I mean, we've had so 612 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: many one o'clock games, so maybe you know, but you know, 613 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 1: we've got a brutal stretch coming in after this. I mean, 614 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 1: in my four years, I think it's always when you're 615 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 1: on a regular week, it's always been kind of in 616 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 1: the middle. I don't ever, I mean, unless it was 617 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 1: just a weird yeah, I know they've they've settled into 618 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: the middle of the day since you've been here. But friends, 619 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 1: going back twenty five years, like they've done Paul Brown. 620 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 1: They've done it all kinds of different ways. That fourth 621 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of ground swell for moving 622 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 1: that fourth primetime game. That's the only one that can 623 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 1: call the Vegas one. Vegas one is the only one 624 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: that can get moved. Yeah. Um, I know that. They 625 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 1: were talking about a little bit with Mike Greece on 626 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 1: the Sports Hub yesterday, sort of throwing a couple of 627 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 1: games out there is potential games that could get Please 628 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 1: God move right, all right, who am I game? You're ready? Yeah? Uh? 629 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 1: Neil from Warwick sends it in. Uh. He doesn't have 630 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: a criteria as to like if they're all Patriots or 631 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 1: but let me look at the answers. Um, yes they're 632 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 1: all Patriots, all right ready right. My first name is 633 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: one of Paul's favorite groups, Earthwin Mold. Yeah that was 634 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 1: That was wow. I just made up for the next one. 635 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 1: My first and last name have the same letter. Okay, 636 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 1: less Welker, Nope, you're out. But I like the bold, 637 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 1: just like the bold nature of the guest. I also 638 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 1: played two positions. I have a Super Bowl ring, but 639 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 1: not with the Patriots. Wow. And finally I went to 640 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 1: the Ohio State. I'll add it is one of uh 641 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 1: Bill's favorites. I think at one point like he liked 642 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 1: this guy. Mhm, Tom Tupah. How Bill's gonna tell him 643 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 1: what hint was wrong? Um? I would never I would 644 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 1: never have gotten that. But I who did he win 645 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl with Tom Tupa? He's a round forever. 646 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 1: I don't know to check. I mean that I wouldn't 647 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 1: have That's not why I didn't get it. I never 648 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: would have gotten the Jets. Yeah, we know he didn't 649 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: get it with the Jets Cleveland. Yeah, uh do so 650 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 1: look that up. Next one is I would a first 651 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 1: round draft pick from Tamara's school.

Tampa he went with he was with Tampa. 655 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: Did not know that?

I went 657 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:30,280 Speaker 1: to the same school as Khalil Mack, who I don't 658 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 1: know anyone else that went to Buffalo. I played on 659 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: the old line and that's it. Yeah, I wouldn't. Yeh, 660 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 1: ed Ellis, I don't know, you know what I do? 661 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 1: Remember that ed Ellis went to Buffalo? Yeah, final one? Yeah, good, 662 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 1: that's a good one. My first name is an Organ Liver. 663 00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 1: I was the last first round pick made by Raymond 664 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 1: bar I was the last Hartley did football card. Heartless. 665 00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 1: He's one that could have been good. One of my 666 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 1: all time great interviews with Steve Grogan. Ye and remember 667 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 1: the old Digital Gold Club Freddie Yes with cyber sidelines. Yeah. 668 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 1: Um so I sit with Steve Grogan and we're asking 669 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: all kinds of questions you know about his career and 670 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 1: any you know, some of your most fond teammates, any 671 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,840 Speaker 1: any guys that you'd played with that you didn't particularly like. No, 672 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 1: I really can't. That's a lie. Hartley Dikes like he 673 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 1: stopped in the middle of a sentence, Right in the 674 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:44,600 Speaker 1: middle of a sentence. He's like, no, No, Hartley Dikes 675 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 1: would be one. Didn't he like break his knee cap 676 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 1: or something? He did? He had a very serious I think, yeah, 677 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 1: fractured patella something like that. Yeah, very serious knee and 678 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 1: he's heartlessly he broke his knee. Oh no, but I 679 00:33:56,360 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 1: think he had some issues before that. Um, yeah, he 680 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 1: was not well liked evidently, according to Grogs, Calvin and 681 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 1: Denver says, Deuce, I'm one hundred percent with you on 682 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,800 Speaker 1: the not liking Stefan Diggs. He's a great talent, but 683 00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 1: acts like one big a hole. Last season at home 684 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 1: against the Bills, he went around to the fans screaming 685 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 1: smd Yeah, what does that mean? What do you think 686 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:24,799 Speaker 1: to save my drink? Oh? I know, and I think 687 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 1: that I think that is uncalled for. Also agree with you, Deuce, 688 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 1: with the mac tantrum super annoying and uncalled for. If 689 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: after this season the Patriots were to get rid of 690 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:37,120 Speaker 1: any wide receiver, who do you think it would be? 691 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 1: I personally think it would be Born, Although I don't 692 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 1: want him to go. The Patriots should then look into 693 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 1: getting a guy like Curtis Samuel. He could be a 694 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:47,719 Speaker 1: good wide receiver. Binkie for whoever the quarterback next year 695 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 1: will be, and I think he would love playing closer 696 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:54,279 Speaker 1: to home, being from Brooklyn, New York. Okay, the Jets maybe, 697 00:34:54,320 --> 00:35:01,439 Speaker 1: but I really wonder what they're gonna do. I wonder 698 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: about Jacobe Myers. I wonder if they don't retain Jacobe Myers. 699 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,239 Speaker 1: What the reaction with Mac is gonna be? Uh, you know, 700 00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 1: Nelson Agil are probably as good as gone. So are 701 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 1: you gonna You're gonna get rid of Born too? And 702 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 1: then you just have h you know, Parker and Thornton 703 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 1: as your two receivers. I don't know. I think they 704 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 1: got a lot of decisions to make a receiver. They 705 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 1: need to get better. I'd love to see Thornton. I'd 706 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:26,799 Speaker 1: love to see Myers come back, but I still think 707 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 1: they need to add, you know, another rookie. But I 708 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 1: don't know how I'd be surprised if they just got 709 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:33,840 Speaker 1: rid of Born. I think he's still kind of manageable, 710 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 1: and you just you don't have the numbers. I mean 711 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 1: he's been okay. Like I just I can't blow the 712 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 1: whole position up because nobody's really had a chance this year. Yeah, 713 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,399 Speaker 1: Anthony from Delaware catching up on pass shows and gotta 714 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 1: say Andy's cameos have been have me pitching a tent 715 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 1: a little smaller than Paul's little pole. Get ready. I 716 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,960 Speaker 1: wish Andy was back on the show and Evan and 717 00:35:54,960 --> 00:36:00,439 Speaker 1: Andy argument would clear three f bombs a show. Yeah, 718 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,960 Speaker 1: carried over from social media questions since the Big Man 719 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 1: was at Germany last weekend. Something that Sauce Gardner said 720 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 1: about the Packers last week was interesting to me. He said, 721 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,319 Speaker 1: the Packers, as the home team an international game, could 722 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 1: have had a bye week or chose their opponent. They 723 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:20,879 Speaker 1: chose the Jets. Has this been common practice during international games? 724 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,400 Speaker 1: Does that mean after the Mexico game we picked Miami 725 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:29,399 Speaker 1: or is this new? I don't know. I don't Yeah, 726 00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 1: I don't have any information in that. I don't really 727 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,879 Speaker 1: know if Paul still has this little pole going put 728 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:36,640 Speaker 1: me down for mac even though I am not a 729 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:42,480 Speaker 1: fan of his, of his predraft. Okay, all right, your 730 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:47,040 Speaker 1: little poles. You my little pole's been retired. We'll revisit 731 00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 1: it in training camp. Then he Anthony email back said 732 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 1: never mind the last part of the email. I see 733 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:56,080 Speaker 1: that the Raiders were the home team and faced the 734 00:36:56,120 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 1: Broncos the next game. So I was just having some fun, 735 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 1: because you know, I like these things like intrigue me. 736 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:05,600 Speaker 1: The Curtis Samuel Will thing close at home. Yeah, it's 737 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 1: two hundred and twenty nine miles from Washington to Brooklyn. 738 00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:10,840 Speaker 1: It's two hundred and fifteen from from Boston to you 739 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 1: those So he's right a little close up. I like that. 740 00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 1: I like the name though, I mean, I like the 741 00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:22,239 Speaker 1: I like I like Curtis Samuel. I like him as 742 00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:25,240 Speaker 1: a player. I think he's I think he's a Belichick 743 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 1: kind of guy. Like the versatility of being used out 744 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:30,920 Speaker 1: of the backfield and as a strict wide receiver, you know. 745 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:33,759 Speaker 1: I like those kinds of players have always sort of 746 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:38,920 Speaker 1: intrigued Belichick. Um jacket and Abah. Matt Jones cannot be 747 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 1: fairly evaluated until the Patriots provide him with a competent 748 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,920 Speaker 1: offensive line, which they have not done yet this season. 749 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 1: Given the likely departure of Isaiah Wyn in free agency, 750 00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:51,719 Speaker 1: and given that Yadney could Uice has not yet demonstrated 751 00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 1: that he is a starting level of NFL tackle, the 752 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:57,480 Speaker 1: Patriots will likely enter the draft next needing a right tackle. 753 00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:00,319 Speaker 1: Can the Patriots afford not to draft to tackle in 754 00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:02,200 Speaker 1: the first round of the next draft, given that they 755 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:04,719 Speaker 1: are going to need a plug and play tackle who 756 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,880 Speaker 1: will become the starter on Day one? I think that's uh, 757 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 1: that's a great question. It is a great question. But 758 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:13,200 Speaker 1: so i'd like to you're just dropping off another year 759 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 1: because they won't have a great offensive line next year 760 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:19,799 Speaker 1: then either because you're gonna lose more players. Like, at 761 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 1: some point, you gotta just do it. Yeah, yeah, they 762 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 1: gotta do it. They got they gotta draft to tackle. 763 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's what we're talking about now, 764 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 1: receiver or tackle and what you know, it's a chicken 765 00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:33,400 Speaker 1: or the egg. What can fix the paper? It's like 766 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:37,440 Speaker 1: a lot of you know, there are a lot of reasons. 767 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:39,239 Speaker 1: There are a lot of external factors that I think 768 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:45,040 Speaker 1: are mitigating factors with Mac Jones's second year dip here um, 769 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 1: and they're in they're valid, But at some point you 770 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 1: just have to play. Like Joe Burrow had among the 771 00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:56,880 Speaker 1: worst protection protecting offensive lines that you'll ever see in football, 772 00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 1: and he found a way to get his team to 773 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Is you know, like a lot of 774 00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 1: people tell you what's the difference between Joe Burrow and 775 00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 1: Mac Jones, Right, I mean, I personally see a lot 776 00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 1: of differences, But some other people, you know, snap back 777 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:14,480 Speaker 1: at are cut from a similar clause, right, So and 778 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 1: I and I understand, Okay, they went out and got 779 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase. They got so you're gonna get a tackle 780 00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:21,759 Speaker 1: in the first round. So then you're gonna have the 781 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,359 Speaker 1: excuse that while you lost Jakobe Myers and you lost 782 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 1: Nelson Agalore and you know, maybe they let go of 783 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:30,319 Speaker 1: Kendrick Borne and DeVante Parker. Now what do you got? 784 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 1: Just Tae Kwon Thornton and that's it. And you know, 785 00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:36,400 Speaker 1: like you see, like this pattern is establishing. And I 786 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 1: talked about this all during the off season. No matter 787 00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:41,440 Speaker 1: what happens, it will not be blamed on him. It's 788 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:44,239 Speaker 1: gonna be blamed on the structure and the coaching. And 789 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 1: I think that's a factor. I don't think it made 790 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:48,800 Speaker 1: any sense to do it the way that they decided 791 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:50,880 Speaker 1: to do it. But at some point he's got to 792 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:53,520 Speaker 1: play better too. Some of this has got to be 793 00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:58,319 Speaker 1: on him. Yeah, I think, uh, because nothing you've we've 794 00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:02,359 Speaker 1: seen so far where you can say Max's playing well, 795 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,799 Speaker 1: it's just everybody else isn't around him. You can't say that, 796 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:10,240 Speaker 1: you know where you know, take a guy like Dan Marino, 797 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 1: like even you know, like you knew he was good 798 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:16,239 Speaker 1: by just looking at him, you know, and he never 799 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 1: won a super Bowl, but you know he was great, 800 00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:24,000 Speaker 1: Yeah he was. But like like Mac hasn't shown that. Wow, 801 00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:27,719 Speaker 1: that you know, it's obvious he's really good, you know, 802 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,640 Speaker 1: even if and I like Mac, I'm happy he's our quarterback, 803 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 1: but like, I don't see that talent that can overcome 804 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:37,600 Speaker 1: you know things. I think that's what you're realizing this 805 00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 1: year is that, I mean I always knew. Look, he's 806 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:41,759 Speaker 1: not gonna be a world beater as far as arm 807 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:44,040 Speaker 1: strength or size or you know, ability to run. We 808 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 1: knew he was limited coming in. I think last year 809 00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 1: gave you the at least the belief that, yes, he's limited, 810 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:52,879 Speaker 1: but he can make it work. Like he's smart enough, 811 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:56,360 Speaker 1: he's accurate enough, he can process quick enough that he 812 00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:57,799 Speaker 1: can get around it. And you know, I mean I 813 00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,880 Speaker 1: think those things are we was talking about Brady like 814 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 1: no one ever sacks him because he gets the ball 815 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 1: out so quick, you know. And I think like the 816 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 1: hope was that Mac would get to a level where 817 00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:08,600 Speaker 1: some of the protection issues could maybe be mitigated because 818 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 1: he's you know, has good ability in the pocket. And 819 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:14,279 Speaker 1: I think this year has shown you like how much 820 00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:16,359 Speaker 1: how perfect does it really have to be? I mean, 821 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:18,880 Speaker 1: how narrow of a path do we have to walk 822 00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:21,399 Speaker 1: with Mac? Uh? The other thing I would just say 823 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,320 Speaker 1: is like I just I get I'd get an offensive 824 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,480 Speaker 1: line coach. I would maybe tap free agency with the 825 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,919 Speaker 1: offensive line. And I think, to Paul's point, you gotta 826 00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:32,919 Speaker 1: get the receipt you gotta get the weapons in the draft. 827 00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:35,440 Speaker 1: You gotta get the weapons early so that they're around. 828 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:37,160 Speaker 1: You don't know how long you're gonna have them. You 829 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 1: might not even have them for the full you know, 830 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:41,359 Speaker 1: full contract as we're seeing with like A J. Brown 831 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 1: guys like that. I think that's that's how you do it. 832 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:45,920 Speaker 1: Drafted one in the first round. It feels like I 833 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:47,719 Speaker 1: don't think it's really going to fix anything. Like it 834 00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 1: might make you feel good that, hey we got a 835 00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 1: right tackle for the next four years, but like right tackle, 836 00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:57,399 Speaker 1: I mean, we see it now, I've done we see 837 00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:00,480 Speaker 1: it now. Where you know, teams are drafting these receivers 838 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 1: early and they're making big impacts right away, you know, 839 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:07,480 Speaker 1: like right away. Yeah, yeah, sorry. I just I just thought, 840 00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:09,080 Speaker 1: does any need a theme song? Do we do? We 841 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:12,239 Speaker 1: do we tap the girl the ladies for a you know, 842 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 1: a return from practically happen. It's just an on your 843 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:18,279 Speaker 1: own time. Are you not getting any sleep? You look 844 00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:21,840 Speaker 1: really tired. I'm always tired. Why work hard, Fred, you 845 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:25,759 Speaker 1: work hards business. I've chosen Andy Hart's there from w 846 00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:29,279 Speaker 1: E I and the Six Rings podcast. Is you were 847 00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:32,040 Speaker 1: wondering where you went? The Six Rings podcast and the 848 00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 1: post game show? Right? Yes, the Six Rings post game show. 849 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 1: Tune in Sunday afternoon. Patriots Jets? Did they get fourteen 850 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 1: in a row? Would be tough? Fourteen in a row? 851 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 1: What over the Jets home? So you don't I know? 852 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:48,759 Speaker 1: Do you not read releases like bullet points time? I 853 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 1: don't read the releases. I don't either, but I knew 854 00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:53,480 Speaker 1: that I happen to know that one broke the biggest 855 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:56,480 Speaker 1: game since twenty ten playoffs against the Jets here. Oh yeah, 856 00:42:56,680 --> 00:43:00,800 Speaker 1: huge on so many levels for both teams. Playoffs also sneaky. 857 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:04,960 Speaker 1: Huge for the quarterback narrative of last year's draft. Justin 858 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 1: Fields already jumped past you by whooping your ass if 859 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,359 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson whoops your ast as he jumped past you too. 860 00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:13,319 Speaker 1: Bill mentioned that he expects he expects the Jets to 861 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:15,879 Speaker 1: have some wrinkles for the Patriots, and the Patriots will 862 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:18,760 Speaker 1: have some wrinkles for them. What wrinkles could the Patriots 863 00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,480 Speaker 1: have for the Jets? Andy Hart Wrinkles Well, one of 864 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,520 Speaker 1: our callers to the postgame show, very specific wanted John 865 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:26,919 Speaker 1: Ousmith in the eye formation in the backfield more often, 866 00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:28,640 Speaker 1: and I was like, what are we doing here? Well, 867 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:32,320 Speaker 1: that's you know, worse for me and Madden's when you 868 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 1: don't have a fullback and that should cut right to 869 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:37,759 Speaker 1: your corn when you're relegated to Siberia. That's the kind 870 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 1: of calls he gets, All Right, you don't have to 871 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:45,239 Speaker 1: be mean, Jesus. Um, I think it's a great question. Fred, 872 00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:47,279 Speaker 1: I actually think it's a great question, because I don't 873 00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:48,920 Speaker 1: Bill was asked about it. I don't know if you 874 00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 1: guys listened to the end of his press conference. He 875 00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:52,839 Speaker 1: was asked, Dow, I'm pointing down the hall. I thought 876 00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 1: you were doing a d I'm doing the mic Reas 877 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:56,520 Speaker 1: stand up or he points to the practice out here. 878 00:43:56,719 --> 00:44:01,680 Speaker 1: David Inn returned to action Um, like, can you make 879 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:04,400 Speaker 1: dramatic changes in a week? They had like one extra practice, 880 00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:06,879 Speaker 1: like just a bunch of stuff, and Bill typical, Bill goes, 881 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:08,719 Speaker 1: if you want to make big changes, gonna make big changes. 882 00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:10,399 Speaker 1: You want to make little changes. A little change depends 883 00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:12,160 Speaker 1: what you think you need to do. Do they think 884 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 1: they need big changes, is the first question in my mind, Like, okay, 885 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 1: so I'll go back before the buy um. They told, 886 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:21,120 Speaker 1: you know, they had that typical time for self scouting. 887 00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 1: What are the things you're gonna be looking at? And 888 00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:26,320 Speaker 1: he says, well, we'll be making some scheme adjustments. Yeah, 889 00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:28,360 Speaker 1: you know, but what does that mean? I don't know. 890 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:30,239 Speaker 1: I mean, we already dropped the zone running right. What 891 00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:32,360 Speaker 1: else are we gonna drop that you instituted in August 892 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:34,080 Speaker 1: that you need to fix in November. It feels like 893 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:36,960 Speaker 1: a step back reset to me, more than a step forward, 894 00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:39,480 Speaker 1: a new twists installed kind of thing. Like this seems 895 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:42,279 Speaker 1: like get right, stop turning the ball over, like, hey, 896 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:44,960 Speaker 1: you guys block better. Hey you throw it to your 897 00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:47,840 Speaker 1: color jersey not the other. Hey you get open a 898 00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:51,120 Speaker 1: little more often a team on three. I really do 899 00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:54,239 Speaker 1: think it feels like it's so cliche, like do your job. 900 00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:56,719 Speaker 1: It felt like to me like coach speak. Yes, just 901 00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,160 Speaker 1: we have to play better, we have to execute better. Now, 902 00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:02,680 Speaker 1: are there issues with play calls? I'm sure there are, yeah, 903 00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:04,560 Speaker 1: but that's not the I don't think that's the be 904 00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:07,840 Speaker 1: all end to protect the football. But I think it 905 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 1: starts with the line, and I don't know if that's 906 00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:14,319 Speaker 1: fixable day Andrews save us. Yeah, that's a good step forward, right, 907 00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:16,960 Speaker 1: Like Bill was quick to say, like I thought James 908 00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 1: did a good job and he was out there, but 909 00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:20,280 Speaker 1: you're better with David Andrews on the field. James farens 910 00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:23,400 Speaker 1: Is he's a four A player, Like he's a good backup, 911 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:26,239 Speaker 1: but you don't really want him playing significant reps. And 912 00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:29,439 Speaker 1: now whether that's the excuse for your first round left 913 00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:31,520 Speaker 1: guard because a lot of people are saying that's you 914 00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:33,920 Speaker 1: know why his play dipped because the guy, well, then 915 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:35,880 Speaker 1: how good is he? He's got to rely on the 916 00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:38,040 Speaker 1: guy next to him to tell him what to do. Like, no, 917 00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:40,359 Speaker 1: that's your first he should be better, but you need 918 00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:42,759 Speaker 1: to feed Isaiah Win. I don't know where he plays. 919 00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 1: One thing we did learn today is Mike on Win 920 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:46,880 Speaker 1: was a guard. Yeah. Bill likes Mike on Win It 921 00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:53,239 Speaker 1: skills his build, he's a guard. So if you thought, yeah, 922 00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:55,240 Speaker 1: if you thought, because I know some people were speculating 923 00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:57,680 Speaker 1: maybe Isaiah Win at guard and move on out like 924 00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:00,399 Speaker 1: Bill seems to like on win It at guard. So 925 00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:02,640 Speaker 1: when I assume as your right tackle and then you 926 00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:05,800 Speaker 1: get Andrews back. So that I think means Cole Strange 927 00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:07,439 Speaker 1: has to be your left guard because I don't really 928 00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,480 Speaker 1: want Farn's at left guard. Or there was the other guy, 929 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:12,920 Speaker 1: Chason Hines or whatever his name, iss I all right 930 00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:15,000 Speaker 1: now said whatever, who's the call up they had recently, 931 00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:17,080 Speaker 1: like Bill Murray and the Yeah, I certainly don't want 932 00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:19,880 Speaker 1: a defensive lineman. We got major problems if the d 933 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:24,400 Speaker 1: lineman is better than our first. So we had a 934 00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:27,600 Speaker 1: wrestler and he worked out at guard, you know, and 935 00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 1: we drafted Tom three years later round. So let's just go. 936 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:32,239 Speaker 1: Let's play all the hits around here. We're the Raiders. 937 00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:35,520 Speaker 1: We're the team of the ages. We live in the past. Athletes, athletes. Wow, 938 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:38,319 Speaker 1: you're gonna let him talk like that. Yeah, no, but 939 00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:40,359 Speaker 1: it starts with the offensive line, because like we're going 940 00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:42,480 Speaker 1: back to what they started with and hoping I would hope. 941 00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:45,760 Speaker 1: So yeah, and now some of that is also the coaching. 942 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:48,120 Speaker 1: You know, Billy Yates and Mattie Patricia, you guys got 943 00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:50,319 Speaker 1: to get Dante used to do it. You do it. 944 00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 1: You guys were around Dante. Figure it out. Make them block. 945 00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 1: But that'll make the passing game. That'll make the passing 946 00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 1: game better. That'll make the like those Romandre Stevenson's two 947 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:01,439 Speaker 1: yard law. There's like the very first play of the game, 948 00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:04,960 Speaker 1: how demoralized, completely right right right off the bat, like 949 00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 1: that in the absolute nuts right off the bat, or 950 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:11,880 Speaker 1: even the the punt, the block punt, first play on 951 00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:13,920 Speaker 1: the two yard line, Well we can run it from 952 00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:16,720 Speaker 1: the three now, we're fine. Like that is so demoral 953 00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:18,479 Speaker 1: It seems like a little thing, like in the course 954 00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:20,480 Speaker 1: of a game where you have seventy snaps and you're 955 00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:24,480 Speaker 1: gonna have hopefully hundreds of yards of offense to lose too, 956 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:26,799 Speaker 1: no big deal, but it just felt like more than that, 957 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:28,840 Speaker 1: and this team, it's a big deal. It is you 958 00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:31,640 Speaker 1: can't can't be behind the sticks? Off script, Paul, what 959 00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:33,640 Speaker 1: does that mean that football talk? We'll see they have 960 00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:36,960 Speaker 1: sticks and then you're behind you behind them. I means 961 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:39,759 Speaker 1: you just have to make yards just to get more sticks, 962 00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:42,000 Speaker 1: let alone move them. What about my other idea? But 963 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:43,720 Speaker 1: do you guys, you guys like the idea of Marcus 964 00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:48,040 Speaker 1: Jones on offense apparently not next topic. No, I hadn't 965 00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:51,440 Speaker 1: really given it any thought. But I don't need playmakers, 966 00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:54,960 Speaker 1: so I'm in don't you need playmakers guys. I mean, 967 00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:56,360 Speaker 1: I'd love to believe in it, but I just like 968 00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:58,080 Speaker 1: another guy that you can't get the ball too. You 969 00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:00,479 Speaker 1: can't but bubble screen. Get him into a buble screen. 970 00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:03,839 Speaker 1: He's a punt returner. So that's how the scheme change. 971 00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:07,480 Speaker 1: How about Marcus Jones on defense? Why don't week start there? Well, 972 00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:10,520 Speaker 1: but aren't we good on defense? No, but I think 973 00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:12,640 Speaker 1: he could always use depth there and he eventually he's 974 00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:14,040 Speaker 1: gonna have to play out, I know, but they're good 975 00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 1: on defense. Their secondary is actually displayed a little bit 976 00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:19,120 Speaker 1: of depth because they've stayed healthy and they've been out there. Now. Yeah, 977 00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:21,959 Speaker 1: like I think Marcus Jones just in theory as simple 978 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,239 Speaker 1: as that. Throw him a bubble screen and say, beat 979 00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:26,440 Speaker 1: a couple of guys here. If we pick up seventeen yards, 980 00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:28,520 Speaker 1: don't it'll be the opposite of the two yard loss 981 00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:30,960 Speaker 1: on the run play. They'll be about, oh, oh we 982 00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:32,720 Speaker 1: got a little boost and now maybe we got remember 983 00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:35,480 Speaker 1: the Brandon LaFell drive starter days. I'm not saying Marcus 984 00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:38,000 Speaker 1: Jones now catches eight balls a game for one hundred 985 00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,640 Speaker 1: and forty one play where I feel a little maybe 986 00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:42,960 Speaker 1: ignites something and maybe that gets Born feeling good and 987 00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:45,000 Speaker 1: then you and then maybe it's snowball. I do like it, Andy, 988 00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:46,720 Speaker 1: because I feel like, and I said on the show yesterday, 989 00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:48,520 Speaker 1: like I feel like they're missing that quick inside guy. 990 00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:50,120 Speaker 1: And I wonder if almost, like, do you think that 991 00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:52,400 Speaker 1: Lynn Boden thing last week was a flirtation with that 992 00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:54,279 Speaker 1: at all of that kind of player. I'm not saying 993 00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:56,520 Speaker 1: he was, but they didn't really do anything either. But 994 00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,959 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know. I just think they're missing 995 00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:01,520 Speaker 1: the third down back and they're missing us a lot. 996 00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:04,680 Speaker 1: If you're looking for someone to just suddenly emerge in 997 00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:06,839 Speaker 1: the second half, it has to be like I think 998 00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:09,440 Speaker 1: he has to be the leading candidate Kendrick Bourne. Yes, 999 00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:12,880 Speaker 1: you know, but why did I don't have a rational 1000 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 1: explanation as to why he has been, you know, an 1001 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:19,920 Speaker 1: out non factor right in nine games, he's been a 1002 00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:22,400 Speaker 1: non fact. Has not been Deebo, Samuel Light. But if 1003 00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:24,080 Speaker 1: you tell me, But if you were going to say, 1004 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:29,200 Speaker 1: lots of people the streets are talking Fred, well, first 1005 00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:32,239 Speaker 1: of all, he kind of started it by saying that 1006 00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:33,879 Speaker 1: that was kind of the way they wanted they wanted 1007 00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:35,839 Speaker 1: to use it, and people like you ran with it. 1008 00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:37,719 Speaker 1: I don't see. I got to give Fred credit on this. 1009 00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:41,319 Speaker 1: I said like him. I didn't say him people like him. 1010 00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:43,879 Speaker 1: But if if you were going to say they're gonna 1011 00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:49,520 Speaker 1: get and you know a significant contribution from either Kendrick Bourne, 1012 00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:53,920 Speaker 1: well Lynn Bowden or Marcus Jones offensively, what do you 1013 00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:55,560 Speaker 1: think is the better chance? It's it's got to be 1014 00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:57,400 Speaker 1: born start with the wide receiver. I've got to have 1015 00:49:57,400 --> 00:49:59,719 Speaker 1: said that coming into the year, but I wouldn't know 1016 00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:04,759 Speaker 1: the unseen reason he does nothing. I don't know either. 1017 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,880 Speaker 1: I don't have the answer for I don't like I can't. 1018 00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:11,799 Speaker 1: I can't accept the fact that they got mad at him, 1019 00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,600 Speaker 1: so he was a non factor for nine games like that. 1020 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:16,640 Speaker 1: It is way more to it than that. I don't 1021 00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:18,840 Speaker 1: know what this same theories. So what was his former team? 1022 00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:21,759 Speaker 1: Fortan Francisco. I think I'm glad Evan Lazars here because 1023 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:23,160 Speaker 1: he might be able to fill in because this is 1024 00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:25,080 Speaker 1: just totally me pulling something out of my bung hole. 1025 00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:28,760 Speaker 1: Well that's what you do. So Kendrick Bourne's former team 1026 00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:32,160 Speaker 1: was the forty nine ers who let him go, right, 1027 00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:35,719 Speaker 1: you acquired him for Josh mcteam. Maybe he wasn't a 1028 00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:38,240 Speaker 1: fit for that offense. You wanted to become more forty 1029 00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:41,359 Speaker 1: nine ers like this year, and suddenly Kendrick Bourne doesn't fit. 1030 00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:45,719 Speaker 1: Am I connecting dots that are illogical or logical? Heaven? 1031 00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:48,759 Speaker 1: It's kind of a Felger fact. Everything you said is true, 1032 00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:50,759 Speaker 1: but it doesn't necessarily mean that all of it's true. 1033 00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:54,320 Speaker 1: Are you sure it's not true? No, I'm not sure, Victory. 1034 00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:56,880 Speaker 1: It's a Felger fact though, Yeah, I don't know, Like 1035 00:50:57,200 --> 00:50:59,640 Speaker 1: who's felder? He goes out on a route, like, how 1036 00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:01,560 Speaker 1: does he not fit? Just throw the ball to him. 1037 00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:05,520 Speaker 1: I mean, I understand, what's that he's not open? But 1038 00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:07,319 Speaker 1: that's not true. I mean on a lot of your 1039 00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:09,480 Speaker 1: film study, we show that he is open. Yeah, there's 1040 00:51:09,480 --> 00:51:13,400 Speaker 1: some instances where he's open. That's fair, I think. But 1041 00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:17,080 Speaker 1: we're Max's eyes because his eyes, he where eyes. That's 1042 00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:19,560 Speaker 1: another point. That's I mean fair point. If he doesn't 1043 00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:22,120 Speaker 1: see him, then the tree falls in the wood. Nobody 1044 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:24,799 Speaker 1: hears it. Yeah, one hand clap right and we're back 1045 00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:27,319 Speaker 1: to eye right. I think the biggest thing a lot 1046 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:30,360 Speaker 1: of shots here, it's not inappropriate. I don't think you 1047 00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:33,439 Speaker 1: need to be smiling back there and gets I don't 1048 00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:36,200 Speaker 1: want you going on that show. It's not open. I 1049 00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:39,759 Speaker 1: don't want you playing with those kids anymore. They're bad anfluence. 1050 00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:43,120 Speaker 1: So yeah, go ahead of he's not open. Well, I 1051 00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:46,399 Speaker 1: think that I should take back he's not open because 1052 00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:48,319 Speaker 1: Fred is right there are plays where he has been 1053 00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:50,799 Speaker 1: getting open. But I think the biggest issue this is 1054 00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:53,200 Speaker 1: sort of what where my brain is at now with 1055 00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:55,880 Speaker 1: ten days or so to digest this entire offense and 1056 00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:57,480 Speaker 1: what the issues are. I think the biggest thing that 1057 00:51:57,520 --> 00:52:01,560 Speaker 1: you look at is, Okay, last year they're running dig 1058 00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:04,200 Speaker 1: routes at eight to twelve yards. Now, all of a 1059 00:52:04,239 --> 00:52:06,240 Speaker 1: sudden I turn on the tape and it's a sixteen 1060 00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:09,240 Speaker 1: yard and cut and I'm just thinking to myself, well, 1061 00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:12,360 Speaker 1: if it ain't broke, like, why did we go away 1062 00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:16,160 Speaker 1: from the stuff that was working last year from this offense? 1063 00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:19,160 Speaker 1: And now all of a sudden I watched Kendrick Bourne 1064 00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:22,920 Speaker 1: and he's trying to cut his route off at sixteen 1065 00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:26,200 Speaker 1: yards down the field instead of eight to ten, eight 1066 00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:29,680 Speaker 1: to twelve, whatever you want to call it. And I 1067 00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:31,719 Speaker 1: just don't think that he's that guy. And I think 1068 00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:34,440 Speaker 1: this goes across the table with all their receivers outside 1069 00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:37,719 Speaker 1: of maybe Taekwon Thornton, and I guess Nelson Aglor when 1070 00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:40,719 Speaker 1: he plays is they got a bunch of singles and 1071 00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:43,279 Speaker 1: doubles hitters that they're trying to hit into forty you know, 1072 00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:46,320 Speaker 1: turn into forty home run guys. And it's kind of 1073 00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:49,719 Speaker 1: like you come into spring training and you know, you 1074 00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:53,120 Speaker 1: hit three hundred last year, just trying to hit for average, 1075 00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:55,840 Speaker 1: and then the coaches say to you, this year, we 1076 00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:59,920 Speaker 1: want you to hit forty dingers, like we do hear 1077 00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:03,359 Speaker 1: about that, like, and he says, you know what, we're 1078 00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:06,000 Speaker 1: more of a launch angle team now. Yeah, And you're like, 1079 00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:08,319 Speaker 1: I don't think that's really me, and but hey, you're 1080 00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:09,960 Speaker 1: the coach. I'll do what you tell. And all of 1081 00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:12,160 Speaker 1: a sudden, it's you know, July, and he's hitting two 1082 00:53:12,239 --> 00:53:15,279 Speaker 1: hundred with one hundred strikeouts, and everybody is like, well, 1083 00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:18,440 Speaker 1: i'll tell you what happened. That guy told me to 1084 00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:22,040 Speaker 1: do it over there blame Yeah, yeah, and I need biceps. 1085 00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:25,359 Speaker 1: I talked to some of their receivers about it on Monday, 1086 00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:28,120 Speaker 1: because I went back and during the bye week, I 1087 00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:30,080 Speaker 1: had some extra time, and I looked at a lot 1088 00:53:30,080 --> 00:53:32,320 Speaker 1: of the cutups that I had from last year's passing 1089 00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:35,399 Speaker 1: offense and just went, Okay, this is that last year, 1090 00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:37,720 Speaker 1: this is this year, and tried almost like a side 1091 00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:40,319 Speaker 1: by side to kind of see the bigger picture of 1092 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:42,560 Speaker 1: what the differences are. And a lot of the guys 1093 00:53:42,640 --> 00:53:46,880 Speaker 1: were saying, well, last year they'd walk the extra safety 1094 00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 1: down and they play single high man to man on us, 1095 00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:53,080 Speaker 1: and nobody was afraid of us. Nobody worried about the 1096 00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:56,440 Speaker 1: outside passes and all these kinds of stuff. So we 1097 00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:59,560 Speaker 1: wanted to be more explosive. We wanted to be more 1098 00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:01,880 Speaker 1: of a on the outside. And it's it's cool to 1099 00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:07,080 Speaker 1: want things, but you're just that field to want that. 1100 00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:13,560 Speaker 1: That's not your like Jacobe Meyers. It it's not you 1101 00:54:13,719 --> 00:54:16,279 Speaker 1: getting down the field and trying to break out on 1102 00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:18,799 Speaker 1: a route that's you know, gonna hit twenty yards down 1103 00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:23,880 Speaker 1: the field. Kendrick Bourne clearing out the sideline for a route. 1104 00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:27,520 Speaker 1: You know, that's not why they're here. And I would 1105 00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:30,560 Speaker 1: also say the tight ends same thing. You know, those 1106 00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:33,800 Speaker 1: guys are guys that are gonna win at the shorten 1107 00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:36,200 Speaker 1: and intermediate levels of the field as well or up 1108 00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:37,839 Speaker 1: the seams. If you want to get a little bit 1109 00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:40,600 Speaker 1: of a vertical element with them in the game. So 1110 00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:43,319 Speaker 1: the biggest thing coming off this buy for me is 1111 00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:47,120 Speaker 1: you tried this other thing for a long time, like 1112 00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:49,600 Speaker 1: going all the way back to the spring really, and 1113 00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:51,879 Speaker 1: as soon as the pads came on and as soon 1114 00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:55,440 Speaker 1: as there was a live pass rush in mac Jones's face, 1115 00:54:55,719 --> 00:54:59,279 Speaker 1: it's been a disaster. So you think there's any chance 1116 00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:02,120 Speaker 1: that I said it last weekend? He here's you tell 1117 00:55:02,160 --> 00:55:04,520 Speaker 1: me what you think? Okay? Any chance that Bill is 1118 00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:08,960 Speaker 1: you know, saying yeah, I am collaborative and Matt and Joe, 1119 00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:12,279 Speaker 1: I listen to you and it's not working. So the 1120 00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:15,600 Speaker 1: scheme adjustment is we're going back to you know what 1121 00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:18,160 Speaker 1: we do best. I would yeah, why wouldn't you? Like, 1122 00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:19,879 Speaker 1: I don't know why you wouldn't. I don't think Bill. 1123 00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:21,840 Speaker 1: I know people love to throw around like his ego 1124 00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:24,719 Speaker 1: and he's stubs and he'll never admit I don't think 1125 00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:27,279 Speaker 1: he is. I don't think he is either, yea, And 1126 00:55:27,360 --> 00:55:29,000 Speaker 1: I mean to some degree, I think they've done it 1127 00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:31,719 Speaker 1: in the Running Game like they've If it works, we'll 1128 00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:33,960 Speaker 1: do it. If it doesn't work, we'll find something that 1129 00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:35,719 Speaker 1: does work. Like he said it so many We're not 1130 00:55:35,719 --> 00:55:37,200 Speaker 1: going to run the ball into a brick wall. We're 1131 00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:39,000 Speaker 1: not going to do these things, or you know, back 1132 00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:41,759 Speaker 1: in the three four four three, like the willingness to change, 1133 00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:44,440 Speaker 1: even though sure he's probably a three four guy if 1134 00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:46,600 Speaker 1: that's not the right thing for his person. He changed 1135 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:49,399 Speaker 1: even over the last twenty years. That right, Yeah, So yes, 1136 00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:52,560 Speaker 1: I think he would now, and it doesn't seem to 1137 00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:54,920 Speaker 1: me that difficult. Like I know, Phil Perry asked Bill 1138 00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:58,280 Speaker 1: about dramatic changes, and like, I don't think it's that difficult. 1139 00:55:58,280 --> 00:56:00,520 Speaker 1: I also think the offensive line would be like, oh yeah, 1140 00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:02,359 Speaker 1: if you guys are gonna run eight to twelve yards 1141 00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:04,880 Speaker 1: instead of sixteen, we'll be better too. We'll be And 1142 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:08,080 Speaker 1: then Max says, I can trust those guys. We lived 1143 00:56:08,080 --> 00:56:09,799 Speaker 1: that last year and I felt comfortable with him. It's 1144 00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:11,960 Speaker 1: this year that I freaked out when people weren't open 1145 00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:13,839 Speaker 1: and I have to point and run and roll out 1146 00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:16,080 Speaker 1: and all those things. So yeah, I don't think it's 1147 00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:20,319 Speaker 1: that hard. Now. I'm guessing defenses will probably presume this too, like, 1148 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:22,400 Speaker 1: oh yeah, if they're gonna make some changes, one of 1149 00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:24,279 Speaker 1: them might be getting back to what they did a 1150 00:56:24,360 --> 00:56:26,319 Speaker 1: year ago, so they may be ready for that. And 1151 00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:28,279 Speaker 1: then you get back to more personnel and can you 1152 00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:30,680 Speaker 1: run your battles. But but we know, as Evan said, 1153 00:56:30,680 --> 00:56:33,719 Speaker 1: we saw those work last year. We really haven't seen 1154 00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:36,600 Speaker 1: this year's version work. So if you're going to roll 1155 00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:38,040 Speaker 1: the dice in the second half to try to make 1156 00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:41,480 Speaker 1: a rundoad the playoffs rather than trusting the process as 1157 00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:44,120 Speaker 1: Mac used to say, or this faith based offense, how 1158 00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:46,279 Speaker 1: about we go back to a video based offense where 1159 00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:47,560 Speaker 1: I can put a clip on and say you did 1160 00:56:47,600 --> 00:56:49,680 Speaker 1: it last year to do it again. Yeah. I think 1161 00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:53,239 Speaker 1: that's that's spot on, because it would be one thing 1162 00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:57,200 Speaker 1: if we had seen the Baltimore game, for instance, was 1163 00:56:57,239 --> 00:57:00,239 Speaker 1: every week where there were flashes, but it just was inconsistent. Hint, 1164 00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:02,879 Speaker 1: And maybe we work through these problems and we get 1165 00:57:02,920 --> 00:57:05,440 Speaker 1: it to be more consistent. But I would also say 1166 00:57:05,480 --> 00:57:08,200 Speaker 1: that the big reason, the big knock on this style 1167 00:57:08,239 --> 00:57:10,040 Speaker 1: of offense, I always call it like the Bruce Arians 1168 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:13,000 Speaker 1: offense because that's like basically what it is. The knock 1169 00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:15,600 Speaker 1: on It is always at it's volatile, like yes, you're 1170 00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:17,760 Speaker 1: you're gonna have Jameis Winston. You're gonna have thirty touchdowns 1171 00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:21,320 Speaker 1: and thirty interceptions, Right, that's the style of the offense. 1172 00:57:21,360 --> 00:57:23,920 Speaker 1: So that's never been the Patriots. And that's what shocks 1173 00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:26,960 Speaker 1: me about this whole transition is that Bill Belichick has 1174 00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:31,600 Speaker 1: always been death by a thousand paper cuts, right, Like, 1175 00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:36,000 Speaker 1: that's always been his adage. That's always been who they've been. 1176 00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:38,800 Speaker 1: Outside of having Randy Moss in two thousand and seven, 1177 00:57:38,800 --> 00:57:41,800 Speaker 1: they've never been an air it out, you know, chuck 1178 00:57:41,840 --> 00:57:44,040 Speaker 1: and duck kind of offense. And now all of a sudden, 1179 00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:46,840 Speaker 1: that's the right thing to do. I'm gonna push back 1180 00:57:46,880 --> 00:57:50,640 Speaker 1: a little bit about it worked last year? Did it really? See? 1181 00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:53,320 Speaker 1: Are we talking about games where they ran up the 1182 00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:55,520 Speaker 1: score and it's skewed the numbers. But it works so 1183 00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:59,640 Speaker 1: regardless of it. But it didn't work right with you, 1184 00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:01,840 Speaker 1: it worked better than this, and right now you have 1185 00:58:01,880 --> 00:58:04,080 Speaker 1: to find what you do best. I'm not saying you're 1186 00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:06,880 Speaker 1: ready to win a shootout with the Bills or the Vikings. 1187 00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:09,960 Speaker 1: I'm saying, beat the Jets this week, Like, figure out 1188 00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:11,480 Speaker 1: a way to beat the Jets this week. And that's 1189 00:58:11,560 --> 00:58:14,160 Speaker 1: the probably wrestling with Bill is saying, you know, like, 1190 00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:18,720 Speaker 1: do I try to salvage this season? Yes? Or do 1191 00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:21,040 Speaker 1: I continue down this path because we have to fight 1192 00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:22,840 Speaker 1: through this and figure out how to be better offense. 1193 00:58:22,880 --> 00:58:26,000 Speaker 1: We're not ready to do that. I'm not telling you 1194 00:58:26,040 --> 00:58:29,480 Speaker 1: that that's wrong, okay, because that whole idea, the gap 1195 00:58:29,600 --> 00:58:32,280 Speaker 1: and like being a downfield team, Like can we put 1196 00:58:32,280 --> 00:58:34,360 Speaker 1: that like we agree that doesn't work, right, Like, they're 1197 00:58:34,400 --> 00:58:36,280 Speaker 1: not ready to do that. Whether it's Mac they align 1198 00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:40,000 Speaker 1: the receivers or everybody involved. I agree with everyway Evans analogy, 1199 00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:42,160 Speaker 1: you know, like I don't think they have the pieces 1200 00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:44,040 Speaker 1: to do what they wanted to do. Yeah, it's it's 1201 00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:46,240 Speaker 1: post All Star breaks, So let's tell the three hundred 1202 00:58:46,320 --> 00:58:48,040 Speaker 1: hitter to just slap the ball into right field and 1203 00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:50,480 Speaker 1: get on base for me, right. I just think that, 1204 00:58:50,600 --> 00:58:53,720 Speaker 1: you know, I posted on on Friday because this is, 1205 00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:56,520 Speaker 1: you know, the degenerate that I am during the bye week. 1206 00:58:56,560 --> 00:59:00,360 Speaker 1: I'm watching film. It's not like your counterpart who's watching 1207 00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:04,520 Speaker 1: The Raiders evidently said yes, like what, yeah, I mean, 1208 00:59:04,640 --> 00:59:07,720 Speaker 1: I'm not quick. I don't put as much time into it. 1209 00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:11,680 Speaker 1: So they ran this play against Indie, which I thought 1210 00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:15,480 Speaker 1: perfectly exemplified all the issues that are going on with 1211 00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:18,880 Speaker 1: this offense, where it's it's an under center play action 1212 00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:22,280 Speaker 1: play seven step drop and they're trying to hit Taikwon 1213 00:59:22,360 --> 00:59:24,919 Speaker 1: Thornton on a deep over route like forty yards down 1214 00:59:24,920 --> 00:59:28,920 Speaker 1: the field and it's there, but the pockets not perfect, 1215 00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:33,480 Speaker 1: And I just don't think the quarterback right now has 1216 00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:37,600 Speaker 1: the confidence in his arm to hit it off platform, 1217 00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:39,160 Speaker 1: Like if he's not going to be able to step 1218 00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:41,160 Speaker 1: into it and put his whole body behind a forty 1219 00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:43,880 Speaker 1: yard throw, I don't think that he's got the confidence 1220 00:59:43,880 --> 00:59:45,200 Speaker 1: in it. And the other thing that he doesn't have 1221 00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:49,840 Speaker 1: the confidence in is that Tai Kwon is not out 1222 00:59:49,840 --> 00:59:52,080 Speaker 1: of his break yet, so that he has to anticipate 1223 00:59:52,560 --> 00:59:54,240 Speaker 1: that Tai Kwon and him are going to be on 1224 00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:56,360 Speaker 1: the same page. So when you drop a route like that, 1225 00:59:56,600 --> 00:59:59,360 Speaker 1: you have a landmark where you say, you know, hit 1226 00:59:59,400 --> 01:00:02,440 Speaker 1: the the thirty literally the thirty written on the field, 1227 01:00:02,480 --> 01:00:04,640 Speaker 1: like that's where I want you to run, and I'm 1228 01:00:04,680 --> 01:00:07,240 Speaker 1: just gonna punt it up to you and throw it 1229 01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:10,120 Speaker 1: deep to you and you're gonna run underneath it. If 1230 01:00:10,120 --> 01:00:12,200 Speaker 1: he had that kind of confidence that Taekwon was going 1231 01:00:12,240 --> 01:00:14,280 Speaker 1: to come out of the break and get to that landmark, 1232 01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:16,440 Speaker 1: then he couldn't let it go a little bit sooner. 1233 01:00:16,600 --> 01:00:18,600 Speaker 1: But instead he holds the ball. He holds the ball 1234 01:00:18,840 --> 01:00:20,920 Speaker 1: and the pocket collapses and he has to check it 1235 01:00:20,920 --> 01:00:23,320 Speaker 1: down to Johnny for like a two yard game. So 1236 01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:27,040 Speaker 1: on so many levels, the protection, the trust and the 1237 01:00:27,120 --> 01:00:29,760 Speaker 1: receivers or the routes that are being run by the receivers, 1238 01:00:30,040 --> 01:00:33,360 Speaker 1: the physical ability of the quarterback, like all these things 1239 01:00:33,400 --> 01:00:37,680 Speaker 1: are just not good enough to run this kind of offense. 1240 01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:40,280 Speaker 1: And then you're you know, your first and ten, you're 1241 01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:42,560 Speaker 1: running into a brick wall. Then you're second and ten 1242 01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:45,880 Speaker 1: and you're throwing play action incomplete. Now we're a third 1243 01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:49,640 Speaker 1: and nine, right, and it's like, yep, now what like 1244 01:00:49,720 --> 01:00:52,280 Speaker 1: that's that's been their offense for two weeks? Now, Yep. 1245 01:00:52,680 --> 01:00:55,400 Speaker 1: It's a tough way to live. Tough way to live. 1246 01:00:55,480 --> 01:00:58,920 Speaker 1: How will you live? John? Day by day? All right? Um, Paula, 1247 01:00:58,920 --> 01:01:01,320 Speaker 1: do you water food? I think Matt just went to 1248 01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:03,880 Speaker 1: get it. Oh good, Oh that's that's uh No, sucks 1249 01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:09,000 Speaker 1: back there, Um and you're gonna stop stay around for 1250 01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:11,440 Speaker 1: a little bit, should I get nothing to do? Uh? 1251 01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:13,800 Speaker 1: Spiar Fresno says that was good on that When I 1252 01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:16,040 Speaker 1: let that one go? Fred with the ernest what does 1253 01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:19,640 Speaker 1: SMD mean? Instant classic? Jake Steele, You're a national treasure. 1254 01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:22,240 Speaker 1: Never shame absolutely. At least he didn't come after me this. 1255 01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:24,360 Speaker 1: I didn't know what it meant. What does SMD mean? 1256 01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:26,560 Speaker 1: Thank you? Think about it for a second. If someone's 1257 01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:30,120 Speaker 1: yelling asked my yeah, yea yeah, okay, yeah, yeah yeah. 1258 01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:32,720 Speaker 1: Somebody says Stefon Diggs was yelling it at the crowd. 1259 01:01:32,760 --> 01:01:35,479 Speaker 1: Last who would say s MD. I don't really feel 1260 01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:37,240 Speaker 1: like that's right. Well, I think they instead of being 1261 01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:42,200 Speaker 1: able to say so that it passed like SMD, like no, 1262 01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:45,400 Speaker 1: no, no no, no, no no, Dig wasn't saying SMD. He 1263 01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:49,160 Speaker 1: was saying the actual words. Okay, that my guess. I mean, 1264 01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:50,960 Speaker 1: I'm not down in the field to hear this. But 1265 01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:55,840 Speaker 1: evidently wait, evidently you know the church goers a football crowd, 1266 01:01:55,920 --> 01:02:00,280 Speaker 1: or offended by such. Probably a big too. Yeah, let's 1267 01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:06,520 Speaker 1: get that energy, says Big Digg's energy. Yeah, Big Digs energy. 1268 01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:11,080 Speaker 1: H CJ in the Bay Area. I do think that 1269 01:02:11,200 --> 01:02:13,840 Speaker 1: Brady can be pointed to for all of the offensive 1270 01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:16,680 Speaker 1: comebacks and rallying the team from an emotional perspective, but 1271 01:02:16,760 --> 01:02:19,680 Speaker 1: at least two Super Bowls are directly due to Belichick 1272 01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:24,280 Speaker 1: prepping Malcolm Butler for that amazing interception against Seattle and 1273 01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:27,680 Speaker 1: using the rules against John Harbaugh and the Baltimore Ravens 1274 01:02:28,080 --> 01:02:30,440 Speaker 1: both had nothing to do with Brady. I think they 1275 01:02:30,480 --> 01:02:33,200 Speaker 1: both are responsible for their fair share of wins, and 1276 01:02:33,240 --> 01:02:36,240 Speaker 1: we were lucky to have them together for twenty years. 1277 01:02:36,520 --> 01:02:38,960 Speaker 1: That part, I agree. Are we doing Brady Belichick again? 1278 01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:42,240 Speaker 1: I think so we're talking are we bringing Brady back 1279 01:02:42,240 --> 01:02:45,200 Speaker 1: and getting rid of Belichick? If we take it to 1280 01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:47,520 Speaker 1: the next level. It's one of my least favorite topics. 1281 01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:52,280 Speaker 1: I'm not ready. How about what do we disagree completely with? 1282 01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:55,520 Speaker 1: Lashawn McCoy, Well, that's what we talk about it. I mean, 1283 01:02:55,520 --> 01:02:56,880 Speaker 1: I said, I think he gets a lot of headlines 1284 01:02:56,880 --> 01:02:58,640 Speaker 1: because people take it as him saying that, you know, 1285 01:02:58,640 --> 01:03:01,840 Speaker 1: Belichick's terrible. I think he's just saying that's that's what 1286 01:03:01,840 --> 01:03:04,320 Speaker 1: he's saying that he and I don't completely disagree with. Ye. 1287 01:03:05,480 --> 01:03:08,720 Speaker 1: I have often said Bill wouldn't be great without Tom. 1288 01:03:08,760 --> 01:03:11,040 Speaker 1: Tom wouldn't be great without Bill. We made like those 1289 01:03:11,080 --> 01:03:13,560 Speaker 1: things all would have played out differently, and we've seen 1290 01:03:13,640 --> 01:03:17,000 Speaker 1: it with so many coaches. Right, yeah, you're good Walsh. Yeah, 1291 01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:18,600 Speaker 1: I mean he was a great coach. Right. No, I 1292 01:03:18,640 --> 01:03:20,480 Speaker 1: don't like anybody would argue, wasn't it one of the 1293 01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:22,920 Speaker 1: greatest coaches ever yet Joe Montana right, like that just 1294 01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:25,360 Speaker 1: the way it usually the way it works. And like 1295 01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:27,400 Speaker 1: the second tier guys we see, like some of the 1296 01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:32,760 Speaker 1: guys that if you have whatever, Russell Wilson or Ben Roethlisberger, 1297 01:03:32,840 --> 01:03:35,200 Speaker 1: that's a certain thing, but those guys clearly weren't Brady 1298 01:03:35,280 --> 01:03:38,840 Speaker 1: on so many levels on field success, off field drive, attitude, 1299 01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:41,880 Speaker 1: so many things. Like there's a lot of good coaches. 1300 01:03:42,960 --> 01:03:45,760 Speaker 1: I think there's no sport where a coach means more 1301 01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:50,880 Speaker 1: than football, correct, But in all sports, the players mean 1302 01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:53,520 Speaker 1: more than the coach. I think. I think that's fair. 1303 01:03:53,600 --> 01:03:55,160 Speaker 1: I just don't know you can come up with any 1304 01:03:55,240 --> 01:03:57,880 Speaker 1: coach if you want to cross sports, if you want 1305 01:03:57,920 --> 01:04:00,880 Speaker 1: to talk football that succeeded without great players, like buddy 1306 01:04:00,960 --> 01:04:03,960 Speaker 1: Phil Jackson, Like look at his his resume with you 1307 01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:08,320 Speaker 1: take Michael Jordan and Kobe and Shack Like a lot 1308 01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:10,520 Speaker 1: of people like I hate Phil Jackson. I I am. 1309 01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:13,840 Speaker 1: I fully wear my my green footy pajamas. But people 1310 01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:18,040 Speaker 1: like always make fun of Phil Jackson like Red Red's better, 1311 01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:21,400 Speaker 1: Like oh really, like he didn't have that, Like there's 1312 01:04:21,520 --> 01:04:24,880 Speaker 1: nine thousand Hall of famers that that Red coached, and 1313 01:04:25,120 --> 01:04:27,360 Speaker 1: you think he would have been the same, just with anybody, 1314 01:04:27,520 --> 01:04:29,480 Speaker 1: like if he didn't have Bill Russell right, it's it's 1315 01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:31,560 Speaker 1: you're right, Fred. I think it is about the players 1316 01:04:31,600 --> 01:04:34,040 Speaker 1: that you know, Jimmy's and Joe's And I've always thought, like, 1317 01:04:34,120 --> 01:04:36,000 Speaker 1: you know how they tell you you can't win a 1318 01:04:36,040 --> 01:04:38,240 Speaker 1: game in the first quarter, but you can lose one, 1319 01:04:38,320 --> 01:04:40,480 Speaker 1: Like I kind of look at the coach the same way, 1320 01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:43,120 Speaker 1: Like the coach can't just win the game, but some 1321 01:04:43,200 --> 01:04:46,040 Speaker 1: coaches feel like they can lose them like bad enough, 1322 01:04:46,320 --> 01:04:49,480 Speaker 1: like see McDermot. I bounced back and forth. I was 1323 01:04:49,560 --> 01:04:52,240 Speaker 1: thinking more like Dan Campbell, Yeah, it's gonna go. That's 1324 01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:55,160 Speaker 1: gonna go for every fourth thousand, or the guy in 1325 01:04:55,320 --> 01:04:58,640 Speaker 1: Sandy Uh yeah, La. I think he's Stanley. I think 1326 01:04:58,680 --> 01:05:00,480 Speaker 1: he might be the worst coach in the NFL because 1327 01:05:00,600 --> 01:05:02,800 Speaker 1: the other thing that nobody wants to talk about is 1328 01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:05,280 Speaker 1: he was supposedly on the forefront of we don't play players, 1329 01:05:05,360 --> 01:05:07,200 Speaker 1: we take care of their bodies. We do this and 1330 01:05:07,600 --> 01:05:11,040 Speaker 1: nobody gets more hurt than the charge. So it doesn't work, 1331 01:05:11,120 --> 01:05:13,440 Speaker 1: mister Staley, you know at all?

So I go in to 1469 01:13:19,320 --> 01:13:23,519 Speaker 1: pay the cashier, this woman who's been there for I know. 1470 01:13:23,600 --> 01:13:25,479 Speaker 1: I like to go in and pay prepay. I like that. 1471 01:13:25,520 --> 01:13:27,680 Speaker 1: Why there, I just like it better. Oh oh, come, 1472 01:13:27,720 --> 01:13:30,360 Speaker 1: don't get me on it. Don't get why just cap it? 1473 01:13:30,880 --> 01:13:32,800 Speaker 1: Why do you like? I have the card, the credit card. 1474 01:13:32,840 --> 01:13:35,720 Speaker 1: It's just twenty bucks on or fill it up? No, 1475 01:13:35,840 --> 01:13:38,920 Speaker 1: I usually put in a certain amount that at the pump. 1476 01:13:39,479 --> 01:13:42,120 Speaker 1: I know you can Jerry Seinfeld from the commercial that 1477 01:13:42,160 --> 01:13:43,720 Speaker 1: he did back in the day when he remember you 1478 01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:46,240 Speaker 1: did that? Oh oh, and he pulled the credit card. 1479 01:13:46,600 --> 01:13:49,160 Speaker 1: Apparently you don't all the way in there, all the way. 1480 01:13:49,200 --> 01:13:52,519 Speaker 1: It's not like you're walking fifteen miles. I can't understand 1481 01:13:52,520 --> 01:13:53,960 Speaker 1: if you didn't have a credit card, all you have 1482 01:13:54,080 --> 01:13:55,479 Speaker 1: was cast right, because then you got that. I can't 1483 01:13:55,520 --> 01:13:58,200 Speaker 1: understand anyway, So I go into the store. It makes 1484 01:13:58,240 --> 01:14:01,120 Speaker 1: no sense anyway I go into the spot is well, 1485 01:14:01,120 --> 01:14:02,880 Speaker 1: stop it and let me finish the story. Why would 1486 01:14:02,920 --> 01:14:05,599 Speaker 1: you go in? Oh, it's just such a hassle. It's 1487 01:14:05,640 --> 01:14:08,679 Speaker 1: not a hassle. You're the laziest person I've ever known 1488 01:14:08,560 --> 01:14:10,799 Speaker 1: that they did this at the I'm walking ten steps 1489 01:14:10,840 --> 01:14:12,640 Speaker 1: to walk into the door so I can pay for 1490 01:14:13,640 --> 01:14:16,120 Speaker 1: I'll have this. It's such, it's for our convenience. Have 1491 01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:17,880 Speaker 1: you ever seen the signs on there that a lot 1492 01:14:17,880 --> 01:14:21,759 Speaker 1: of places say pre go inside and pre pay before 1493 01:14:21,800 --> 01:14:23,600 Speaker 1: you pump? A lot of places won't let you do 1494 01:14:23,680 --> 01:14:25,040 Speaker 1: that thing at the pump. You know, where the hell 1495 01:14:25,080 --> 01:14:28,639 Speaker 1: do you? Maybe in Arkansas? That's another great moment from 1496 01:14:31,200 --> 01:14:34,559 Speaker 1: those were the days? Huh hey. Bridgestone is the official 1497 01:14:34,600 --> 01:14:37,360 Speaker 1: tire of the New England Patriots, and Bridgestone tires are 1498 01:14:37,400 --> 01:14:41,400 Speaker 1: now on sale through December tenth at all Sullivan Tire locations. 1499 01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:45,280 Speaker 1: Visit Sullivan Tire dot com for a location near you. 1500 01:14:46,040 --> 01:14:48,599 Speaker 1: Still waiting for my Bridgestone tires to arrive in the mail? 1501 01:14:48,640 --> 01:14:53,280 Speaker 1: I haven't done him yet the mail into yeah big boxes. Yeah, anyway, 1502 01:14:53,800 --> 01:14:57,680 Speaker 1: Andy has left. He couldn't take it anymore Italy. But 1503 01:14:57,720 --> 01:15:00,559 Speaker 1: Evan's still here. And uh, did you come from practice? 1504 01:15:00,600 --> 01:15:15,599 Speaker 1: I did? When did we get to that? And so 1505 01:15:15,720 --> 01:15:19,719 Speaker 1: what do We got almost perfect attendance for the Patriots 1506 01:15:19,720 --> 01:15:23,200 Speaker 1: to Marcus Mitchell, the only player missing from the active 1507 01:15:23,320 --> 01:15:27,400 Speaker 1: roster time Montgomery though reported just a few minutes. I 1508 01:15:27,560 --> 01:15:30,559 Speaker 1: don't know if you guys covered that that he is 1509 01:15:30,680 --> 01:15:34,120 Speaker 1: not coming back. Jim McBride reporting he has done for 1510 01:15:34,160 --> 01:15:39,280 Speaker 1: the year. Your shoulder surgery is what McBride said. So, 1511 01:15:40,200 --> 01:15:44,519 Speaker 1: no time Montgomery this season. Yeah, we were talking about 1512 01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:46,920 Speaker 1: him yesterday and we're like, yeah, it doesn't look good. 1513 01:15:47,040 --> 01:15:49,120 Speaker 1: You know. Now there's a two year deal. He'll be 1514 01:15:49,160 --> 01:15:52,439 Speaker 1: back next year. I mean he's on a contract with him. Yeah. 1515 01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:55,320 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, you talk about disappointments. I was 1516 01:15:55,360 --> 01:15:57,400 Speaker 1: a little disappointed. I thought that he would be a 1517 01:15:57,439 --> 01:16:00,559 Speaker 1: contributor this year, you know, because absolutely I thought he 1518 01:16:00,640 --> 01:16:02,720 Speaker 1: looked the best of anybody running the wide zone and 1519 01:16:02,760 --> 01:16:04,599 Speaker 1: training camp. He looked like the only guy who kind 1520 01:16:04,640 --> 01:16:06,360 Speaker 1: of seemed to get it and was able to like 1521 01:16:06,400 --> 01:16:08,040 Speaker 1: pick the hole. And you know, there are a couple 1522 01:16:08,160 --> 01:16:10,800 Speaker 1: runs with him up up the sideline. I think it's 1523 01:16:10,880 --> 01:16:13,640 Speaker 1: a spot they're missing. I mean, I love Ramander Stevenson, 1524 01:16:13,720 --> 01:16:16,360 Speaker 1: but I think they're they're lacking that you know, third 1525 01:16:16,360 --> 01:16:19,800 Speaker 1: down kind of scat back, kind of thing. But we'll 1526 01:16:19,840 --> 01:16:21,920 Speaker 1: see what they do when Harris gets back. Yeah, I 1527 01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:24,439 Speaker 1: don't know if I don't want to make a huge 1528 01:16:24,479 --> 01:16:26,800 Speaker 1: deal out of time Montgomer being the savior of this 1529 01:16:26,920 --> 01:16:29,880 Speaker 1: offense or anything like that. But for two years now 1530 01:16:29,920 --> 01:16:34,719 Speaker 1: they haven't had the James White, Shane Vereen, Kevin fall type. 1531 01:16:35,080 --> 01:16:38,720 Speaker 1: And Ramander has grown leaps and bounds in the passing game, 1532 01:16:38,720 --> 01:16:40,439 Speaker 1: but that's just not his game. You know, He's a 1533 01:16:40,479 --> 01:16:43,440 Speaker 1: two hundred and thirty pound running back. He's not gonna 1534 01:16:43,560 --> 01:16:45,719 Speaker 1: break down at the top of the route and get 1535 01:16:45,720 --> 01:16:48,240 Speaker 1: open on a linebacker on third and three and make 1536 01:16:48,280 --> 01:16:50,920 Speaker 1: an easy throw for the quarterback. So I thought, especially 1537 01:16:50,960 --> 01:16:55,200 Speaker 1: against the Colts, they got him isolated on Ocarecki. I 1538 01:16:55,200 --> 01:16:57,840 Speaker 1: think it's how you pronounce it, Bobby Okarecki on the Colts, 1539 01:16:57,880 --> 01:17:01,240 Speaker 1: who's an athletic player, but they had him isolated on 1540 01:17:01,360 --> 01:17:04,080 Speaker 1: him a few times, and Mac wanted to go there, 1541 01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:06,720 Speaker 1: but Reminder just couldn't get away from the coverage. So 1542 01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:10,400 Speaker 1: I think that Montgomery, like kind of like Mike was saying, 1543 01:17:10,680 --> 01:17:14,519 Speaker 1: and training camp, was by far, in a way, the 1544 01:17:14,560 --> 01:17:16,920 Speaker 1: best receiving back that they had on the roster, and 1545 01:17:16,960 --> 01:17:19,720 Speaker 1: he was making plays and making plays in the preseason, 1546 01:17:19,840 --> 01:17:22,080 Speaker 1: so I think it would have been nice to have 1547 01:17:22,120 --> 01:17:24,560 Speaker 1: somebody else, especially just to keep the pressure off of 1548 01:17:24,680 --> 01:17:28,040 Speaker 1: Vermontre and allow him to play a little bit less. Yeah, 1549 01:17:28,240 --> 01:17:30,639 Speaker 1: we'll get Harris back this week hopefully and get him 1550 01:17:30,640 --> 01:17:32,360 Speaker 1: back in the mix. I also saw to Marcus Mitchell 1551 01:17:32,479 --> 01:17:35,160 Speaker 1: that said Chris Mason reporting he's dealing with an illness. 1552 01:17:35,240 --> 01:17:40,679 Speaker 1: So it's been going around Wednesday. Were they in pads, Yes, 1553 01:17:40,800 --> 01:17:43,200 Speaker 1: they were. They were in pads for this time of year, 1554 01:17:43,240 --> 01:17:47,200 Speaker 1: so they do. Mean, oh well they I don't always 1555 01:17:47,240 --> 01:17:49,720 Speaker 1: think that they have leg pads on. They just have 1556 01:17:49,800 --> 01:17:52,559 Speaker 1: the braces on on the lowers, but they have the 1557 01:17:52,680 --> 01:17:56,080 Speaker 1: real shoulder pads. So there's there's going to be some 1558 01:17:56,120 --> 01:17:59,280 Speaker 1: sort of you know, light contact or something like that. Okay, 1559 01:17:59,479 --> 01:18:01,960 Speaker 1: tackling or anything. But yeah, I mean we saw that 1560 01:18:01,960 --> 01:18:04,080 Speaker 1: out in camp all the time, where they don't actually 1561 01:18:04,120 --> 01:18:05,960 Speaker 1: tackle guys to the ground, but they kind of play 1562 01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:11,120 Speaker 1: too more physical, too hand touch you know out there today, Yeah, 1563 01:18:11,120 --> 01:18:14,599 Speaker 1: it was pretty windy. Um, it's certainly starting to feel like, 1564 01:18:15,360 --> 01:18:17,360 Speaker 1: you know, second half of the season. Weather, you know 1565 01:18:17,400 --> 01:18:19,320 Speaker 1: where we're going to start to have weather games and weather. 1566 01:18:19,320 --> 01:18:21,320 Speaker 1: It's going to be a factor. Today it was a 1567 01:18:21,320 --> 01:18:24,479 Speaker 1: little chilly, windy, rainy, foggy, you know, just kind of 1568 01:18:24,479 --> 01:18:28,400 Speaker 1: a gross day out there right now. So it didn't 1569 01:18:28,400 --> 01:18:32,719 Speaker 1: look cold, but I think we're starting to trend towards 1570 01:18:32,760 --> 01:18:36,080 Speaker 1: that time of year certainly where we might get into 1571 01:18:36,080 --> 01:18:39,600 Speaker 1: some weather games here. How much of practice were you 1572 01:18:39,640 --> 01:18:44,320 Speaker 1: allowed to see? We saw the very first period of 1573 01:18:44,400 --> 01:18:47,200 Speaker 1: positional drills, so stretching and then a little bit of 1574 01:18:47,720 --> 01:18:50,519 Speaker 1: a positional drills, So we did see a little bit 1575 01:18:51,439 --> 01:18:54,000 Speaker 1: more than we've seen probably since before the bye last 1576 01:18:54,040 --> 01:18:57,120 Speaker 1: week the one day they kicked us out really really quickly, 1577 01:18:57,560 --> 01:18:59,960 Speaker 1: and then on Monday we got kicked out after stretching. 1578 01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:02,080 Speaker 1: So today was the first time when we saw maybe 1579 01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:05,160 Speaker 1: I don't know, ten minutes of practice start rainy weather though. 1580 01:19:05,280 --> 01:19:07,559 Speaker 1: So during that ten minutes, what was the mood of 1581 01:19:07,600 --> 01:19:11,120 Speaker 1: the team. The mood of the team is always the same. 1582 01:19:11,960 --> 01:19:14,639 Speaker 1: Mood of the team never really changes too much, just work, 1583 01:19:19,040 --> 01:19:21,639 Speaker 1: not annoyed. The mood of the of the media, though, 1584 01:19:21,680 --> 01:19:23,639 Speaker 1: I mean, we're look, it's it's starting to get chilly 1585 01:19:23,680 --> 01:19:25,559 Speaker 1: out there, right and then you gotta stand out there, 1586 01:19:26,040 --> 01:19:28,520 Speaker 1: and you gotta get get your pen out and your 1587 01:19:28,600 --> 01:19:31,799 Speaker 1: roster he out. You gotta get the roster from sulking, 1588 01:19:31,960 --> 01:19:34,000 Speaker 1: you know, and you stand there and you start checking 1589 01:19:34,040 --> 01:19:36,920 Speaker 1: off names and then your hands get cold. So the 1590 01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:39,360 Speaker 1: gloves are coming out soon, not not the boxing gloves, 1591 01:19:39,360 --> 01:19:43,800 Speaker 1: the regular cloves, to make sure that you uh, you know, 1592 01:19:43,960 --> 01:19:48,519 Speaker 1: your hands don't go don't go numb. Yeah, absolutely, absolutely, Okay, 1593 01:19:48,680 --> 01:19:51,760 Speaker 1: and m are there is already talk from the media 1594 01:19:51,800 --> 01:19:54,479 Speaker 1: about the short week and you know, oh yeah, travel 1595 01:19:54,520 --> 01:19:59,160 Speaker 1: playing three games in twelve days, a lot of rousing, 1596 01:20:00,080 --> 01:20:03,200 Speaker 1: run the gauntlet, Thanksgiving on the road. You got a 1597 01:20:03,280 --> 01:20:06,439 Speaker 1: right of a football or lives are so difficult? A 1598 01:20:06,439 --> 01:20:10,320 Speaker 1: lot of harrump thing. Yeah, all right, all right, good stuff. 1599 01:20:10,320 --> 01:20:13,880 Speaker 1: That's there's your practice report. Um lot going on. Yeah, 1600 01:20:14,800 --> 01:20:17,599 Speaker 1: got the emails coming in, so maybe we'll read some 1601 01:20:17,640 --> 01:20:21,720 Speaker 1: of them. Read Pedro from Connecticut. He said, it's been 1602 01:20:21,840 --> 01:20:25,000 Speaker 1: sometimes since I've emailed in. Hope you're feeling better, Mike, 1603 01:20:25,320 --> 01:20:28,400 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, something you think COVID. I wanted all of 1604 01:20:28,400 --> 01:20:31,200 Speaker 1: your thoughts on how important this game is. As of today, 1605 01:20:31,240 --> 01:20:33,880 Speaker 1: the Patriots are currently the last seed in the playoffs. 1606 01:20:34,160 --> 01:20:36,519 Speaker 1: Do you think this game could make or break the season? 1607 01:20:36,840 --> 01:20:40,040 Speaker 1: I feel the outcome will have big implications later in 1608 01:20:40,080 --> 01:20:42,960 Speaker 1: the season. Yeah, yeah, I mean, you know, I don't 1609 01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:45,519 Speaker 1: think their season is completely toast if they lose, but 1610 01:20:45,560 --> 01:20:47,360 Speaker 1: it's pretty close to it. And I think it sets 1611 01:20:47,400 --> 01:20:49,599 Speaker 1: the possibility that you're going to be the last place 1612 01:20:49,640 --> 01:20:51,240 Speaker 1: team in the AFC East. I mean, I think it 1613 01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:54,120 Speaker 1: sets the floor. Yeah, I don't think that you win 1614 01:20:54,200 --> 01:20:57,639 Speaker 1: anything per se by winning, but I think you lose 1615 01:20:57,680 --> 01:20:59,560 Speaker 1: a lot by losing. I feel like a lot on 1616 01:20:59,600 --> 01:21:01,240 Speaker 1: the line. I feel like a play in game to me, Like, 1617 01:21:01,280 --> 01:21:02,760 Speaker 1: this is a game you gotta win. You're beating this 1618 01:21:02,800 --> 01:21:05,360 Speaker 1: team a lot. You're probably maybe a little bit better 1619 01:21:05,400 --> 01:21:08,120 Speaker 1: than them, I guess, but you know, win this game, 1620 01:21:08,600 --> 01:21:10,759 Speaker 1: then you get the opportunity to play, like slide ahead 1621 01:21:10,760 --> 01:21:13,559 Speaker 1: of the Jets, at least with the tiebreaker, so you 1622 01:21:13,600 --> 01:21:15,840 Speaker 1: know you have a path. You know, we could start 1623 01:21:15,920 --> 01:21:18,400 Speaker 1: getting in front of some of these teams. And if 1624 01:21:18,400 --> 01:21:20,680 Speaker 1: you lose your two games, more than likely you'd bet 1625 01:21:20,680 --> 01:21:23,160 Speaker 1: two games behind the entire division. Everybody would be seven 1626 01:21:23,160 --> 01:21:24,720 Speaker 1: and three, you'd be five and five. I think that's 1627 01:21:24,760 --> 01:21:27,880 Speaker 1: what I'm assuming Buffalo wins at home against Generally speaking, 1628 01:21:27,920 --> 01:21:30,680 Speaker 1: what I'm most interested in is what changes this year. 1629 01:21:30,760 --> 01:21:33,679 Speaker 1: Like you've owned the Jets forever, does that finally change 1630 01:21:33,720 --> 01:21:35,559 Speaker 1: and you lose a big game to them. You haven't 1631 01:21:35,600 --> 01:21:37,640 Speaker 1: only been able to win a big game on the 1632 01:21:37,760 --> 01:21:39,760 Speaker 1: road against a good team in a while. I mean, 1633 01:21:39,880 --> 01:21:42,400 Speaker 1: can you do that in Minnesota or Vegas or the Cardinals. 1634 01:21:42,800 --> 01:21:45,719 Speaker 1: You haven't beaten Miami or in Buffalo in two years, So, 1635 01:21:46,240 --> 01:21:47,880 Speaker 1: you know, are you able to get one of those wins? 1636 01:21:47,880 --> 01:21:49,559 Speaker 1: I mean, there's just a lot of things that I'm curious, 1637 01:21:49,720 --> 01:21:52,120 Speaker 1: curious if they're going to change flip the script from 1638 01:21:52,160 --> 01:21:53,559 Speaker 1: what we've seen in the last couple years, because if 1639 01:21:53,600 --> 01:21:55,120 Speaker 1: it goes like it went the last couple of years, 1640 01:21:55,320 --> 01:21:57,600 Speaker 1: you know, you're talking about two wins, and you know 1641 01:21:57,640 --> 01:21:59,400 Speaker 1: they'll they'll kind of fade down the street. So, Evan, 1642 01:21:59,800 --> 01:22:03,880 Speaker 1: you watch Bill today, I did. I. You know, he mentioned, 1643 01:22:03,920 --> 01:22:06,400 Speaker 1: you know, having wrinkles for the Jets, Jets having wrinkles 1644 01:22:06,400 --> 01:22:09,000 Speaker 1: for us. Which team do you think is best equipped 1645 01:22:09,000 --> 01:22:13,840 Speaker 1: to have the biggest wrinkle? Probably the Jets. Honestly, yeah, 1646 01:22:13,880 --> 01:22:16,400 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily think it's a talent thing. I just 1647 01:22:17,080 --> 01:22:21,760 Speaker 1: as of right now, I maybe not on defense, but offensively. 1648 01:22:21,840 --> 01:22:25,760 Speaker 1: I trust their coaching staff more to come up with wrinkles, 1649 01:22:25,760 --> 01:22:28,759 Speaker 1: to do things differently. When we were talking about changing 1650 01:22:28,760 --> 01:22:31,040 Speaker 1: your offense on the fly, and is it possible and 1651 01:22:31,120 --> 01:22:33,880 Speaker 1: things like that. I go back to twenty eighteen when 1652 01:22:34,280 --> 01:22:37,120 Speaker 1: they reinvented themselves down the stretch into that twenty one 1653 01:22:37,160 --> 01:22:40,599 Speaker 1: personnel base package, and that was all the conversation during 1654 01:22:40,640 --> 01:22:42,880 Speaker 1: Super Bowl Week when we talked to the coaches, was 1655 01:22:43,240 --> 01:22:47,160 Speaker 1: we really we changed? Right? We got to that point 1656 01:22:47,160 --> 01:22:50,200 Speaker 1: at Pittsburgh loss in Pittsburgh, and we kind of changed 1657 01:22:50,240 --> 01:22:52,160 Speaker 1: the way that we were playing. And they had those 1658 01:22:52,240 --> 01:22:55,280 Speaker 1: last two games at home against I think it was 1659 01:22:55,320 --> 01:22:57,240 Speaker 1: the Jets in the Bills before the Bills were good, 1660 01:22:57,280 --> 01:23:00,400 Speaker 1: and they were able to kind of practice again those 1661 01:23:00,439 --> 01:23:04,440 Speaker 1: teams this new way of doing things. But that staff 1662 01:23:04,680 --> 01:23:10,240 Speaker 1: had McDaniels running it, Scarneckia coaching the line, Fears coaching 1663 01:23:10,280 --> 01:23:14,320 Speaker 1: the backs like that was a totally different animal, right 1664 01:23:14,360 --> 01:23:17,800 Speaker 1: in terms of coaching chops on that side of the 1665 01:23:17,800 --> 01:23:21,800 Speaker 1: football to be able to not only morph on the 1666 01:23:21,840 --> 01:23:24,360 Speaker 1: fly and change how they were identity wise, but then 1667 01:23:24,400 --> 01:23:27,000 Speaker 1: also to have compliments off of some of the things 1668 01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:28,679 Speaker 1: that they were doing. So it wasn't all the same 1669 01:23:28,720 --> 01:23:30,639 Speaker 1: thing over and over again. Have you even seen Fears 1670 01:23:30,640 --> 01:23:31,960 Speaker 1: of practice at all? I mean, he was around a 1671 01:23:31,960 --> 01:23:34,559 Speaker 1: lot earlier. He pops around. Yeah, in time, and you 1672 01:23:34,600 --> 01:23:38,479 Speaker 1: know he's like partially retired, right, He's not running the 1673 01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:41,160 Speaker 1: room anymore at the running backs, but he's he's around. 1674 01:23:41,479 --> 01:23:43,479 Speaker 1: I saw him. I came in with him the other 1675 01:23:43,520 --> 01:23:46,360 Speaker 1: day and I saw him driving as we're trying to 1676 01:23:46,400 --> 01:23:48,920 Speaker 1: treat them. I didn't get I didn't get a chance 1677 01:23:48,920 --> 01:23:50,680 Speaker 1: to talk to him. He just he drove by as 1678 01:23:50,720 --> 01:23:52,600 Speaker 1: I was walking through the parking lot. Eric's got that 1679 01:23:52,640 --> 01:23:57,240 Speaker 1: retirement piece. It's still still cued up, still waiting, Dwayne 1680 01:23:57,240 --> 01:23:59,920 Speaker 1: and Boston writes in I want to first acknowledge all 1681 01:24:00,080 --> 01:24:03,880 Speaker 1: of the following excuses for Mac Jones's poor offensive performances. 1682 01:24:03,960 --> 01:24:06,479 Speaker 1: As I've heard from Patriots dot Com in the local 1683 01:24:06,520 --> 01:24:09,960 Speaker 1: Boston media. Can't compare Mac to Brady because Brady's the goat, 1684 01:24:10,080 --> 01:24:13,840 Speaker 1: no QB compares. Can't directly compare Max's production to other 1685 01:24:13,880 --> 01:24:17,080 Speaker 1: young quarterbacks because he is not as physically gifted as 1686 01:24:17,120 --> 01:24:20,000 Speaker 1: this pit. I have not heard that one can't compare 1687 01:24:20,000 --> 01:24:22,880 Speaker 1: Max Zappy because Mack is the starter. No, I have 1688 01:24:23,040 --> 01:24:25,479 Speaker 1: not heard that one either can't blame Mac for losses 1689 01:24:25,520 --> 01:24:28,679 Speaker 1: when the defense couldn't stop a running quarterback. I haven't heard. 1690 01:24:28,720 --> 01:24:31,479 Speaker 1: I haven't heard that either can't blame Mac when he 1691 01:24:31,520 --> 01:24:35,080 Speaker 1: can't find an open receiver that I've heard. Can't blame 1692 01:24:35,120 --> 01:24:38,120 Speaker 1: Mac when the offensive I can't blame him. Yeah, I've heard. 1693 01:24:38,120 --> 01:24:39,920 Speaker 1: I've heard people, no one can get open, you can't 1694 01:24:39,920 --> 01:24:42,240 Speaker 1: blame I've heard people blame no one's getting open, no one, 1695 01:24:42,360 --> 01:24:45,880 Speaker 1: no time. I've heard those excuses. Yes, can't blame Mac 1696 01:24:45,920 --> 01:24:49,080 Speaker 1: when the offensive line gives up pressure. Okay for that, 1697 01:24:49,960 --> 01:24:54,519 Speaker 1: Mac can't feel his toes after the angle injury. Bill 1698 01:24:54,560 --> 01:24:57,639 Speaker 1: Belichick embarrassed back by benching him on Monday Night Football. 1699 01:24:57,840 --> 01:25:00,879 Speaker 1: That might be true, that's accurate, But that's Matt Patricia 1700 01:25:00,920 --> 01:25:04,360 Speaker 1: and Joe Judge gave Zappy more straightforward in more creative plays. 1701 01:25:05,479 --> 01:25:11,080 Speaker 1: Aren't they kind of different? And Matt Patricia and Joe 1702 01:25:11,160 --> 01:25:15,120 Speaker 1: Judge are ruining Mac Jones very true. If we can't 1703 01:25:15,160 --> 01:25:17,679 Speaker 1: have a discussion about any of those statements, let's look 1704 01:25:17,720 --> 01:25:21,479 Speaker 1: deeper into how Mac Jones has performed. Mac had only 1705 01:25:21,560 --> 01:25:23,880 Speaker 1: one game winning drive in his career, and that was 1706 01:25:23,920 --> 01:25:26,519 Speaker 1: against the Houston Texans in the twenty twenty one season. 1707 01:25:26,920 --> 01:25:30,800 Speaker 1: In an alternate universe where Deshaun Watson never slides into 1708 01:25:30,840 --> 01:25:36,599 Speaker 1: the DMS for home delivered happy ending Mac Jones would 1709 01:25:36,800 --> 01:25:40,759 Speaker 1: Mac Jones would have zero game winning drives. Cam Newton 1710 01:25:40,880 --> 01:25:45,160 Speaker 1: in an underwhelming twenty twenty season, had three by your estimation, 1711 01:25:45,479 --> 01:25:48,120 Speaker 1: What can Max Jones do at an elite level as 1712 01:25:48,160 --> 01:25:51,240 Speaker 1: an NFL starter? What does Mac need to do to 1713 01:25:51,400 --> 01:25:56,360 Speaker 1: better score when the team needs points to win? What 1714 01:25:56,520 --> 01:25:58,479 Speaker 1: do you want to start? I mean, look, I mean 1715 01:25:58,520 --> 01:26:01,840 Speaker 1: I don't And I think this goes to Paul's thing of, 1716 01:26:02,280 --> 01:26:04,479 Speaker 1: you know, thinking that Max's gonna kind of escape. I 1717 01:26:04,479 --> 01:26:06,720 Speaker 1: don't think he's escape criticism here. I mean I think 1718 01:26:06,760 --> 01:26:09,960 Speaker 1: he's He's a part of the problem pie not on 1719 01:26:10,000 --> 01:26:12,400 Speaker 1: our show. Yeah, not maybe the biggest part. But I mean, 1720 01:26:12,439 --> 01:26:14,800 Speaker 1: I just go back to we've been talking about a lot, 1721 01:26:15,320 --> 01:26:17,080 Speaker 1: go back to last year, what you've been doing. You know, 1722 01:26:17,200 --> 01:26:19,599 Speaker 1: show some pocket presence when guys are open to deliver 1723 01:26:19,680 --> 01:26:21,639 Speaker 1: the ball, you know, when you get creamed, like it's 1724 01:26:21,680 --> 01:26:24,240 Speaker 1: that's not your fault. But he's got to at least 1725 01:26:24,280 --> 01:26:26,320 Speaker 1: have a baseline. I mean, I think what Evan last 1726 01:26:26,360 --> 01:26:28,760 Speaker 1: week you said something about Jared Goff being below the 1727 01:26:28,800 --> 01:26:31,519 Speaker 1: line with the Rams, Like I feel like Max play 1728 01:26:31,600 --> 01:26:34,479 Speaker 1: has been below the line even despite the issues that 1729 01:26:34,520 --> 01:26:36,160 Speaker 1: they've had. Now, I don't think it's fair to put 1730 01:26:36,160 --> 01:26:38,200 Speaker 1: it all on him, but I just think there have 1731 01:26:38,280 --> 01:26:40,040 Speaker 1: been plays to be made that he hasn't made. I 1732 01:26:40,080 --> 01:26:41,840 Speaker 1: don't think he had the same pocket presence that he 1733 01:26:41,880 --> 01:26:44,040 Speaker 1: had last year. He doesn't look comfortable, he doesn't look 1734 01:26:44,080 --> 01:26:46,120 Speaker 1: like he knows what they're doing. So I know it's 1735 01:26:46,120 --> 01:26:48,240 Speaker 1: asking a lot, but welcome to the NFL, your quarterback. 1736 01:26:48,280 --> 01:26:50,240 Speaker 1: It's it's all on you, you know, and I you 1737 01:26:50,280 --> 01:26:52,680 Speaker 1: know you weren't here earlier. I like Mac, you know, 1738 01:26:52,680 --> 01:26:54,840 Speaker 1: I'm happy he's our quarterback, but but I have to 1739 01:26:54,880 --> 01:26:58,280 Speaker 1: be honest. There's nothing he's done this year where I 1740 01:26:58,320 --> 01:27:03,000 Speaker 1: can honestly say it's not back, you know, like he's 1741 01:27:03,040 --> 01:27:06,080 Speaker 1: contributed to the poor play. I just I think the 1742 01:27:07,640 --> 01:27:10,240 Speaker 1: why I roll my eyes and get get a little 1743 01:27:10,240 --> 01:27:14,160 Speaker 1: agitated by emails like that is because when did we 1744 01:27:14,280 --> 01:27:16,800 Speaker 1: ever say that Mac was elite at anything, like, at 1745 01:27:16,840 --> 01:27:19,719 Speaker 1: any point, Like he wasn't elite last year as a rookie. 1746 01:27:19,800 --> 01:27:22,360 Speaker 1: Was better last year as a rookie certainly than he's 1747 01:27:22,360 --> 01:27:25,960 Speaker 1: been this year, way better, but nobody put him in 1748 01:27:26,080 --> 01:27:30,280 Speaker 1: any upper echelon category ever. So I have always thought 1749 01:27:30,320 --> 01:27:32,519 Speaker 1: the same thing about Mac Jones, going all the way 1750 01:27:32,520 --> 01:27:35,880 Speaker 1: back to when he was drafted out of Alabama, which 1751 01:27:35,960 --> 01:27:41,040 Speaker 1: is that he's a Kirk Cousins, He's a Derek Carr. 1752 01:27:41,080 --> 01:27:45,919 Speaker 1: He's in that category of quarterback where if you surround 1753 01:27:46,040 --> 01:27:48,320 Speaker 1: him with good pieces and you coach him up and 1754 01:27:48,360 --> 01:27:51,960 Speaker 1: you make things, you know, Cushnie Jimmy Garoppolo, like, if 1755 01:27:51,960 --> 01:27:54,920 Speaker 1: you make things nice for him in the situation that 1756 01:27:54,960 --> 01:27:59,880 Speaker 1: he's in, that he will not anchor what you're doing offensive. 1757 01:28:00,520 --> 01:28:02,759 Speaker 1: No one's ever thought that mac Jones is a driving 1758 01:28:02,800 --> 01:28:05,160 Speaker 1: force to offensive. I'm going to push back on that 1759 01:28:05,200 --> 01:28:07,840 Speaker 1: a little bit, and I agree with your assessment, and 1760 01:28:07,880 --> 01:28:10,479 Speaker 1: I think that's you speaking for yourself. I think there 1761 01:28:10,479 --> 01:28:13,960 Speaker 1: were people last year that got all kinds of upset 1762 01:28:14,000 --> 01:28:16,759 Speaker 1: when you use Kirk Cousins as a comp all kinds 1763 01:28:16,760 --> 01:28:19,320 Speaker 1: of angry. I think a lot of that stems from 1764 01:28:19,320 --> 01:28:22,479 Speaker 1: the fact that that was mac Jones. We thought thought 1765 01:28:22,520 --> 01:28:25,240 Speaker 1: that that was mac Jones's floor because he was coming 1766 01:28:25,280 --> 01:28:29,200 Speaker 1: in as a rookie and being the sixteenth best quarterback 1767 01:28:29,200 --> 01:28:32,040 Speaker 1: in the league instantly, so we all thought, Okay, well, 1768 01:28:32,040 --> 01:28:34,479 Speaker 1: he's going to just get better, right right, But the 1769 01:28:34,520 --> 01:28:38,200 Speaker 1: problem is is that everything, the situation around him, has 1770 01:28:38,240 --> 01:28:42,400 Speaker 1: significantly regressed. So now he is nowhere close to where 1771 01:28:42,400 --> 01:28:44,920 Speaker 1: he was even last year. So we've rediscovered that now 1772 01:28:44,960 --> 01:28:47,479 Speaker 1: there's a lower floor for mac Jones in the NFL 1773 01:28:47,520 --> 01:28:50,040 Speaker 1: than maybe what we were hoping or what we had thought. 1774 01:28:50,080 --> 01:28:53,680 Speaker 1: But to go back to Kirk Cousins, if you turn 1775 01:28:53,760 --> 01:28:57,000 Speaker 1: on that tape against the Bills from Sunday, he was terrible. 1776 01:28:58,240 --> 01:29:01,840 Speaker 1: He was horrible in that game. He threw four would 1777 01:29:01,840 --> 01:29:04,559 Speaker 1: be interceptions and they drop two of them. He threw 1778 01:29:04,600 --> 01:29:07,879 Speaker 1: one interception where he threw it directly to a Buffalo 1779 01:29:07,960 --> 01:29:12,120 Speaker 1: defender right to him. The only reason why the Vikings 1780 01:29:12,120 --> 01:29:14,840 Speaker 1: were in that game were because of Justin Jefferson and 1781 01:29:14,920 --> 01:29:17,599 Speaker 1: because Josh Allen fumbled the ball in his own end zone. 1782 01:29:18,320 --> 01:29:20,519 Speaker 1: Those are the two reasons why they were in that game. 1783 01:29:21,280 --> 01:29:24,840 Speaker 1: So I just come back to all the time and 1784 01:29:25,000 --> 01:29:27,640 Speaker 1: say the same thing with Kirk Cousins. I think it's 1785 01:29:27,680 --> 01:29:30,360 Speaker 1: a great example. When I watched Kirk Cousins play, like 1786 01:29:30,360 --> 01:29:33,400 Speaker 1: when I watch that tape yesterday, it's the same guy. 1787 01:29:33,880 --> 01:29:36,320 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm staring into a mirror like the 1788 01:29:36,400 --> 01:29:39,680 Speaker 1: Spider Man meme. Because he's jittery in the pocket, his 1789 01:29:39,840 --> 01:29:42,519 Speaker 1: arm strength down the field is limited when his first 1790 01:29:42,560 --> 01:29:45,400 Speaker 1: read is open or his All Pro receiver is making 1791 01:29:45,439 --> 01:29:48,240 Speaker 1: a ridiculous play on the ball. They move the football 1792 01:29:48,280 --> 01:29:52,080 Speaker 1: down the field. So if you put Mac Jones on 1793 01:29:52,200 --> 01:29:55,840 Speaker 1: this Minnesota Vikings team, I don't think it really falls 1794 01:29:55,840 --> 01:29:57,880 Speaker 1: off that much. But the problem is is that the 1795 01:29:57,920 --> 01:30:01,240 Speaker 1: Patriots have a worse play caller. They don't have Justin 1796 01:30:01,360 --> 01:30:04,040 Speaker 1: Jefferson on the team, and so now we have the 1797 01:30:04,080 --> 01:30:07,639 Speaker 1: product that we have. Travis and West Virginia says sorry 1798 01:30:07,680 --> 01:30:10,640 Speaker 1: for the caller on caller mudslinging yesterday, will stick to 1799 01:30:10,680 --> 01:30:14,360 Speaker 1: football today. I always find myself comparing Mac Jones to 1800 01:30:14,479 --> 01:30:16,519 Speaker 1: other quarterbacks from the past, and they came up with 1801 01:30:16,560 --> 01:30:20,960 Speaker 1: a good one to contemplate. Has Mac Jones shown you 1802 01:30:21,040 --> 01:30:23,879 Speaker 1: anything that makes you believe he is better than Jay Fiedler, 1803 01:30:24,280 --> 01:30:27,800 Speaker 1: Oh my god, jaf Fiedler, I I couldn't tell you 1804 01:30:27,840 --> 01:30:32,280 Speaker 1: off about And I think I think they're pretty similar. Yeah, 1805 01:30:32,360 --> 01:30:33,920 Speaker 1: I think you can. I think you can win. I 1806 01:30:35,160 --> 01:30:37,439 Speaker 1: think the only difference that I have is I think 1807 01:30:37,479 --> 01:30:41,200 Speaker 1: that's the ceiling. Like the Kirk Cousins, like Derek Carr 1808 01:30:41,200 --> 01:30:42,880 Speaker 1: think that to me, that's the best he can be, 1809 01:30:43,240 --> 01:30:45,120 Speaker 1: and other people think that's the worst he can be. 1810 01:30:46,280 --> 01:30:51,280 Speaker 1: No like that to me is where I's That's that's 1811 01:30:51,280 --> 01:30:56,160 Speaker 1: the expectation. I'm hoping Simms, that's gone back way too 1812 01:30:56,160 --> 01:30:59,560 Speaker 1: far from me. You only Phil Simms. I think it's you. 1813 01:30:59,640 --> 01:31:02,800 Speaker 1: You're talking about kind of the same thing. Yes, yeah, ye, 1814 01:31:03,280 --> 01:31:05,599 Speaker 1: I don't different era, but but same kind of thing. 1815 01:31:05,680 --> 01:31:08,360 Speaker 1: I don't think kirk Cousins's floor. I think that that's 1816 01:31:08,400 --> 01:31:11,880 Speaker 1: what I hope, like he would be on that level 1817 01:31:12,439 --> 01:31:15,280 Speaker 1: of a player and the floor is lower. Yeah, And 1818 01:31:15,280 --> 01:31:16,960 Speaker 1: don't take that as a shot. I didn't mean that you. 1819 01:31:17,160 --> 01:31:19,599 Speaker 1: I mean like last year, and Fred will tell you. 1820 01:31:19,840 --> 01:31:22,559 Speaker 1: If you brought up the Andy Dalton's, the Kirk Cousins, 1821 01:31:22,600 --> 01:31:26,840 Speaker 1: the Derek Cars, people got very upset, very very hurt. 1822 01:31:27,120 --> 01:31:30,679 Speaker 1: They got very upset at you for underselling their quarterback. Yeah, 1823 01:31:30,920 --> 01:31:33,880 Speaker 1: and like, believe me, I took it all last year 1824 01:31:34,040 --> 01:31:37,640 Speaker 1: and and like that's I'm fine with that. I'm a 1825 01:31:37,640 --> 01:31:41,479 Speaker 1: big boy. I can handle criticism. But if you said 1826 01:31:41,479 --> 01:31:44,759 Speaker 1: that that was that it was his ceiling, people attacked 1827 01:31:44,800 --> 01:31:47,600 Speaker 1: you right for that. Oh, he's gonna be much so. 1828 01:31:47,840 --> 01:31:50,200 Speaker 1: Paul asked me a question today and I had to pause. 1829 01:31:50,400 --> 01:31:52,320 Speaker 1: I was a little upset about that. I'm not gonna lie. 1830 01:31:52,360 --> 01:31:55,280 Speaker 1: I wasn't ansating it being a real question, would right now, 1831 01:31:55,280 --> 01:32:00,320 Speaker 1: would you take Zach Wilson or Matt Jones? So you 1832 01:32:00,360 --> 01:32:03,120 Speaker 1: had a pause too, didn't expect him to pause either. 1833 01:32:03,160 --> 01:32:05,560 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. The reason why I'm should have 1834 01:32:05,560 --> 01:32:07,400 Speaker 1: brought this to the table and show prep. The reason 1835 01:32:07,439 --> 01:32:13,080 Speaker 1: why I'm pausing is because I guess like it's hard 1836 01:32:13,160 --> 01:32:17,599 Speaker 1: because if you give Bill Zach Wilson's that's my answer, 1837 01:32:17,720 --> 01:32:21,040 Speaker 1: that's my answer. Can he coach? That's my answer. I'd 1838 01:32:21,080 --> 01:32:23,400 Speaker 1: be intrigued to see what Bill could do with those skills, 1839 01:32:23,560 --> 01:32:29,240 Speaker 1: assuming he's coachable, assuming he's coaching. Right, And I also 1840 01:32:29,320 --> 01:32:31,920 Speaker 1: said that right, we just had the same conversations right 1841 01:32:32,800 --> 01:32:35,200 Speaker 1: if Bill, Like I just could never imagine a world 1842 01:32:35,200 --> 01:32:37,759 Speaker 1: that Bill would have gone into that game two weeks 1843 01:32:37,760 --> 01:32:40,479 Speaker 1: ago and said, we're gonna throw at forty one times. 1844 01:32:40,680 --> 01:32:42,519 Speaker 1: We don't need to score any points to win the game, 1845 01:32:42,600 --> 01:32:44,519 Speaker 1: but we're gonna have our guy who's not ready to 1846 01:32:44,520 --> 01:32:47,120 Speaker 1: throw the ball forty one times throw at forty one times. 1847 01:32:47,200 --> 01:32:50,000 Speaker 1: Like I just could never envision a world where Bill 1848 01:32:50,040 --> 01:32:52,080 Speaker 1: would go into a game and think like that. And again, 1849 01:32:52,479 --> 01:32:55,439 Speaker 1: the game was never out of hand. They didn't have 1850 01:32:55,520 --> 01:32:57,400 Speaker 1: to get away from the run because of the score. 1851 01:32:57,880 --> 01:32:59,560 Speaker 1: I don't think it was a one score game in 1852 01:32:59,640 --> 01:33:02,320 Speaker 1: the four quarter. Yeah, like they stopped running it because 1853 01:33:02,320 --> 01:33:05,280 Speaker 1: they didn't want to run anymore. Well, they couldn't run it. 1854 01:33:05,400 --> 01:33:07,280 Speaker 1: I think that's a bit they didn't try. They ran 1855 01:33:07,400 --> 01:33:10,080 Speaker 1: twelve times. Every single time they ran it though it 1856 01:33:10,160 --> 01:33:12,720 Speaker 1: was I mean, they had a couple of like four 1857 01:33:12,800 --> 01:33:15,599 Speaker 1: or five yard games in there. But the Patriots run 1858 01:33:15,600 --> 01:33:18,639 Speaker 1: defense played a good game. They did, they did, but 1859 01:33:18,680 --> 01:33:23,759 Speaker 1: they ran it twelve times. Yeah, like you never allowed yourself. 1860 01:33:23,800 --> 01:33:26,240 Speaker 1: And again, there's a million games that I could think 1861 01:33:26,240 --> 01:33:28,120 Speaker 1: of off the top of my head where you run 1862 01:33:28,160 --> 01:33:30,400 Speaker 1: the ball eight times because you fell behind twenty one. 1863 01:33:30,439 --> 01:33:33,640 Speaker 1: Nothing in that game was a one score game in 1864 01:33:33,680 --> 01:33:36,840 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. Yeah, Like they did not have to 1865 01:33:36,880 --> 01:33:39,320 Speaker 1: stop running. Well, this is like one of those things 1866 01:33:39,360 --> 01:33:41,960 Speaker 1: that you know to go like I was, you know, 1867 01:33:42,120 --> 01:33:45,320 Speaker 1: taking a shot at Shot McDermott earlier when Andy was here. Like, 1868 01:33:45,360 --> 01:33:47,320 Speaker 1: this is one of those things I feel like that 1869 01:33:47,439 --> 01:33:49,600 Speaker 1: Belichick still has on the rest of the league, and 1870 01:33:49,640 --> 01:33:52,800 Speaker 1: that is feel for the game during the game, right 1871 01:33:52,880 --> 01:33:55,799 Speaker 1: like when Bill when you're in a game against the team, 1872 01:33:56,120 --> 01:33:59,120 Speaker 1: I feel like he has such a great sense of 1873 01:34:00,160 --> 01:34:03,840 Speaker 1: game flow like what what's how's it going? Game? Right? 1874 01:34:03,920 --> 01:34:06,040 Speaker 1: Like what what are we? What are we doing? You 1875 01:34:06,040 --> 01:34:08,760 Speaker 1: know we like, to Paul's point, okay, we're up ten 1876 01:34:08,840 --> 01:34:11,960 Speaker 1: to nothing early. You know, let's not have Zach Wilson 1877 01:34:12,040 --> 01:34:14,120 Speaker 1: dropped back forty times because we don't need we can 1878 01:34:14,120 --> 01:34:17,040 Speaker 1: win this game ten to nothing, so let's just That's 1879 01:34:17,080 --> 01:34:19,160 Speaker 1: why it was so surprising to me in that particular 1880 01:34:19,200 --> 01:34:23,000 Speaker 1: game that they passed up field goals, right, because that 1881 01:34:23,240 --> 01:34:25,599 Speaker 1: that to me, was very out of character for Bill. Yeah, 1882 01:34:25,640 --> 01:34:27,360 Speaker 1: I've seen them pass up field goals in a game 1883 01:34:27,400 --> 01:34:30,240 Speaker 1: that ended up, you know, thirty four to twenty eight, right, 1884 01:34:30,520 --> 01:34:33,479 Speaker 1: but that game was was apparent that you weren't going 1885 01:34:33,560 --> 01:34:36,000 Speaker 1: to need thirty five points to win, right. And you know, 1886 01:34:36,040 --> 01:34:40,080 Speaker 1: I go to the Bill's game from Sunday because you 1887 01:34:40,120 --> 01:34:42,960 Speaker 1: look at that Vikings offense and it's like, if Justin 1888 01:34:43,040 --> 01:34:45,920 Speaker 1: Jefferson doesn't beat you, then who is? Because Adam Thieland 1889 01:34:46,040 --> 01:34:49,840 Speaker 1: is not Adam Feeland anymore. Hockinson just got there. I 1890 01:34:49,840 --> 01:34:52,840 Speaker 1: guess it Dalvin Cook in the run game potentially, But 1891 01:34:53,320 --> 01:34:55,360 Speaker 1: that was a myriad of probably we've spent like the 1892 01:34:55,360 --> 01:34:58,120 Speaker 1: whole show yesterday, like they they did so many things 1893 01:34:58,120 --> 01:35:01,800 Speaker 1: wrong in that game. Yeah, fundamentally wrong that you lost 1894 01:35:01,800 --> 01:35:04,280 Speaker 1: track there. Just there were like major plays that they 1895 01:35:04,320 --> 01:35:06,360 Speaker 1: screwed up that you don't even remember because it was 1896 01:35:06,400 --> 01:35:09,120 Speaker 1: like the eleventh most egregeous thing they did wrong. Maybe 1897 01:35:09,360 --> 01:35:13,640 Speaker 1: maybe we ecro on Thursday night next week on Thanksgiving 1898 01:35:13,960 --> 01:35:16,719 Speaker 1: and the Patriots give up one ninety and a touchdown 1899 01:35:16,720 --> 01:35:19,759 Speaker 1: to Justin Jefferson, But I highly doubt it because there's 1900 01:35:19,840 --> 01:35:23,800 Speaker 1: no way that Bill is putting his rookie sixth round 1901 01:35:23,840 --> 01:35:27,000 Speaker 1: pick corner on an island against the best receiver in 1902 01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:30,200 Speaker 1: the league the entire game and just saying to Ben 1903 01:35:30,320 --> 01:35:33,439 Speaker 1: Ford or what's the Jackson Drake Jackson? I think is 1904 01:35:33,479 --> 01:35:36,519 Speaker 1: the other corner on Buffalo? Like you got eighteen Dane, 1905 01:35:37,320 --> 01:35:40,640 Speaker 1: Dane got it. I would even say, like you can 1906 01:35:40,760 --> 01:35:43,480 Speaker 1: even have the same plan that you had, like schematically 1907 01:35:44,080 --> 01:35:46,559 Speaker 1: just on fourth and eighteen, tell him don't try to 1908 01:35:46,600 --> 01:35:49,439 Speaker 1: pick the pass off, like just make the tackle or 1909 01:35:49,479 --> 01:35:51,759 Speaker 1: knocked the ball down. Either one would have worked because 1910 01:35:51,760 --> 01:35:53,479 Speaker 1: if he had gone in and hit him, he can't 1911 01:35:53,520 --> 01:35:55,840 Speaker 1: catch it. And if he had just knocked the ball down, 1912 01:35:55,880 --> 01:35:57,720 Speaker 1: he couldn't catch it. He allowed him to get his 1913 01:35:57,720 --> 01:36:00,000 Speaker 1: hand on the ball because he was trying to catch it, 1914 01:36:00,360 --> 01:36:03,880 Speaker 1: which is like a cardinal rule fourth and eighteen. You 1915 01:36:03,880 --> 01:36:06,240 Speaker 1: don't need you don't need the pick, just to watch 1916 01:36:06,280 --> 01:36:08,439 Speaker 1: your corners go out there and get beat like a 1917 01:36:08,520 --> 01:36:12,760 Speaker 1: drum time and time and time again by Justin Jefferson. 1918 01:36:12,920 --> 01:36:15,519 Speaker 1: And we don't jam him, we don't bracket him, we 1919 01:36:15,600 --> 01:36:19,360 Speaker 1: don't do anything to stop him. And that to me 1920 01:36:19,479 --> 01:36:22,240 Speaker 1: is you could say what you want about all the 1921 01:36:22,240 --> 01:36:25,879 Speaker 1: other extracurriculators with Bill. He would never allow Justin Jefferson. 1922 01:36:26,040 --> 01:36:27,920 Speaker 1: It would have to it would be harder. Well, I 1923 01:36:27,920 --> 01:36:30,240 Speaker 1: mean I shouldn't say it would be harder. If that's 1924 01:36:30,280 --> 01:36:33,639 Speaker 1: gonna happen, I would think they would be more plays 1925 01:36:33,680 --> 01:36:35,960 Speaker 1: like that fourth in eighteen because I mean it's hard 1926 01:36:35,960 --> 01:36:37,400 Speaker 1: to sit there and say, oh it was so easy. 1927 01:36:37,439 --> 01:36:39,360 Speaker 1: It wasn't easy. They had great coverage on him a 1928 01:36:39,400 --> 01:36:41,439 Speaker 1: lot of those plays. They just didn't make the play 1929 01:36:41,640 --> 01:36:44,160 Speaker 1: because the other guys better than you, right, Like I 1930 01:36:44,200 --> 01:36:46,840 Speaker 1: mean that that that was the the ultimate player thing, 1931 01:36:46,880 --> 01:36:49,120 Speaker 1: like when we talk about you gotta have players like 1932 01:36:49,200 --> 01:36:51,400 Speaker 1: that wasn't Because Kevin O'Connell is such a great coach, 1933 01:36:51,800 --> 01:36:54,080 Speaker 1: his player was better than the guys covering them, or 1934 01:36:54,160 --> 01:36:57,719 Speaker 1: Ker Cousins a quarterback. You know, he was just better. 1935 01:36:58,520 --> 01:37:01,880 Speaker 1: M Taylor says, So a lot has been said about 1936 01:37:01,880 --> 01:37:06,240 Speaker 1: the offensive line because it's frankly offensive. What worries me 1937 01:37:06,360 --> 01:37:08,360 Speaker 1: is that we have three first round picks on the 1938 01:37:08,439 --> 01:37:12,040 Speaker 1: line and the only one not benched by poor performance 1939 01:37:12,080 --> 01:37:14,880 Speaker 1: was the guy we didn't actually draft. I'm terrified to 1940 01:37:14,960 --> 01:37:17,840 Speaker 1: invest any draft capital into that line too, because I 1941 01:37:17,880 --> 01:37:20,320 Speaker 1: don't trust that the pick will work out. Trent was 1942 01:37:20,360 --> 01:37:23,800 Speaker 1: Trent now, Trent said, third day three guy, he was 1943 01:37:23,840 --> 01:37:25,479 Speaker 1: like a six or seven three. Yeah, so it's just 1944 01:37:25,520 --> 01:37:29,320 Speaker 1: a win winning strange the first round picks. We've known 1945 01:37:29,320 --> 01:37:31,840 Speaker 1: this about win and one of those fourth round pick 1946 01:37:32,720 --> 01:37:38,559 Speaker 1: apparently win should have been fourth round pick too. Yeah. 1947 01:37:36,880 --> 01:37:40,920 Speaker 1: Stop it. We gotta get that line right. Yeah. I mean, 1948 01:37:41,439 --> 01:37:43,479 Speaker 1: what would you think of of a bill saying and 1949 01:37:43,560 --> 01:37:46,880 Speaker 1: when us a guard? Fine? I think a problem is 1950 01:37:46,880 --> 01:37:51,920 Speaker 1: is that you're you're putting two guys out a position 1951 01:37:51,960 --> 01:37:54,439 Speaker 1: to maybe save one spot if you move him right, 1952 01:37:54,479 --> 01:37:58,559 Speaker 1: because now you have a backup playing at rank guard 1953 01:37:58,640 --> 01:38:01,599 Speaker 1: and a backup playing at right tackle. So you hope 1954 01:38:01,600 --> 01:38:03,200 Speaker 1: that it fixes right tackle. But what was they going 1955 01:38:03,240 --> 01:38:04,960 Speaker 1: to do to right guard right? You just don't know. 1956 01:38:06,040 --> 01:38:09,479 Speaker 1: I think it comes down to, though, to a degree, 1957 01:38:10,120 --> 01:38:12,439 Speaker 1: where would you rather the whole be? Like if you 1958 01:38:12,520 --> 01:38:14,720 Speaker 1: know that you're gonna have a weak link, like it's 1959 01:38:14,760 --> 01:38:17,200 Speaker 1: not you're not you don't have five playable linement. Man, 1960 01:38:17,400 --> 01:38:19,160 Speaker 1: so you know that one guy is going to be 1961 01:38:19,200 --> 01:38:21,879 Speaker 1: a weak link. Would you rather be on the interior 1962 01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:24,720 Speaker 1: or would you rather be a tackle? In theory, I 1963 01:38:24,720 --> 01:38:28,040 Speaker 1: think that it's easier to mask a tackle. Sure, right tackle, 1964 01:38:28,080 --> 01:38:30,439 Speaker 1: you got your eyes on him right, terior pressure gonna 1965 01:38:30,479 --> 01:38:32,679 Speaker 1: kill you right off, the step up in the pocket, 1966 01:38:33,080 --> 01:38:37,400 Speaker 1: chip slide, the protection, that direction, like all those types 1967 01:38:37,439 --> 01:38:40,160 Speaker 1: of things are more doable, I would think for a tackle. 1968 01:38:40,200 --> 01:38:43,360 Speaker 1: But with that being said, just because you can maybe 1969 01:38:43,439 --> 01:38:45,360 Speaker 1: help out a Yadney could uice. He can't be a 1970 01:38:45,400 --> 01:38:48,519 Speaker 1: turnstyle either, Like you can't. It's still the NFL. So 1971 01:38:48,520 --> 01:38:50,720 Speaker 1: that Marcus Cannon snap where he's just got like what 1972 01:38:51,040 --> 01:38:53,400 Speaker 1: or was that wins first snap? Yeah, it gets on 1973 01:38:53,479 --> 01:38:56,120 Speaker 1: skates right, Like you can't. You can't be a turnstyle. 1974 01:38:56,160 --> 01:38:59,000 Speaker 1: You still have to be a representable blocker. And I 1975 01:38:59,040 --> 01:39:02,519 Speaker 1: still fall back on in that situation last year when 1976 01:39:03,240 --> 01:39:05,439 Speaker 1: Trent Brown was out all that time and they didn't 1977 01:39:05,479 --> 01:39:08,760 Speaker 1: just put a when you out there like he ended 1978 01:39:08,840 --> 01:39:10,639 Speaker 1: up not starting at all and some of the games, 1979 01:39:10,840 --> 01:39:12,559 Speaker 1: but I think he started like three of the games 1980 01:39:12,600 --> 01:39:15,160 Speaker 1: at tackle. Like the fact that they had all those 1981 01:39:15,560 --> 01:39:18,160 Speaker 1: moving parts and still didn't want him out there tells 1982 01:39:18,200 --> 01:39:21,680 Speaker 1: me that they really feel strongly about him being a guard. Yeah, 1983 01:39:21,720 --> 01:39:28,000 Speaker 1: he's their next Shack Mason um occasionally free agent after 1984 01:39:28,080 --> 01:39:31,599 Speaker 1: next year. I'm yeah, not I I don't know, that's 1985 01:39:31,640 --> 01:39:33,880 Speaker 1: that's what I think they'll sign him. I think, why 1986 01:39:34,439 --> 01:39:36,240 Speaker 1: why not? They won't and then they'll draft a guard 1987 01:39:36,240 --> 01:39:40,120 Speaker 1: in the first round. I think, just based on I'll 1988 01:39:40,200 --> 01:39:41,720 Speaker 1: say it right here, and Manu will be on the 1989 01:39:41,760 --> 01:39:45,479 Speaker 1: Patriots in twenty twenty three. See, that would irritate me, 1990 01:39:46,160 --> 01:39:48,400 Speaker 1: Like we're gonna let I'm not gonna blame them for 1991 01:39:48,439 --> 01:39:50,640 Speaker 1: as Felger likes to say, I'm not gonna blame them 1992 01:39:50,680 --> 01:39:52,559 Speaker 1: for things that haven't happened yet. But with all of 1993 01:39:52,560 --> 01:39:54,760 Speaker 1: the guys that they let walk, they're gonna resign a 1994 01:39:54,840 --> 01:39:58,519 Speaker 1: guard like great, the only Sun guy, but he'll be 1995 01:39:58,560 --> 01:40:01,280 Speaker 1: one of them. They're obsession with yards drives me nuts. Yes, 1996 01:40:01,560 --> 01:40:04,879 Speaker 1: it really does. Like they resigned Tuny to the franchise 1997 01:40:04,920 --> 01:40:08,880 Speaker 1: and they resigned Mason to an extension, Like that's not 1998 01:40:08,960 --> 01:40:10,599 Speaker 1: what I want to spend my money. If you want 1999 01:40:10,600 --> 01:40:12,360 Speaker 1: to talk about like the big picture stuff with this 2000 01:40:12,360 --> 01:40:16,680 Speaker 1: team right now, that that kind of stuff worked when 2001 01:40:16,680 --> 01:40:18,719 Speaker 1: you had Tom Brady, Like when you had Tom Brady 2002 01:40:18,920 --> 01:40:21,719 Speaker 1: and you knew you and a good roster on defense, 2003 01:40:21,760 --> 01:40:23,719 Speaker 1: and like you knew you were loaded and you were 2004 01:40:24,160 --> 01:40:26,760 Speaker 1: either Super Bowl or bust, and you're in the AFC 2005 01:40:26,880 --> 01:40:29,360 Speaker 1: Championship game every single year. You can draft a guard 2006 01:40:29,360 --> 01:40:31,240 Speaker 1: in the first round and you can be like, all right, 2007 01:40:31,280 --> 01:40:33,479 Speaker 1: that's fine, Like, you know, we we have no holes 2008 01:40:33,520 --> 01:40:36,240 Speaker 1: anywhere else that we really feel strongly about. We need 2009 01:40:36,280 --> 01:40:39,639 Speaker 1: a guard plug and play. We draft the guard at 2010 01:40:39,680 --> 01:40:43,080 Speaker 1: this point of this organization, like the very the first 2011 01:40:43,160 --> 01:40:45,120 Speaker 1: round pick needs to be the best guy available on 2012 01:40:45,120 --> 01:40:48,280 Speaker 1: the board, regardless of position. And it wasn't they It 2013 01:40:48,320 --> 01:40:51,679 Speaker 1: wasn't even cold strange for them, right, So that that's 2014 01:40:51,720 --> 01:40:53,760 Speaker 1: you know, they drafted a guard because they had a 2015 01:40:53,760 --> 01:40:57,680 Speaker 1: hole at guard, Like that was it? Ye Jamie and 2016 01:40:57,720 --> 01:41:00,680 Speaker 1: Omaha rights And I've heard oh Lineman not play well 2017 01:41:00,720 --> 01:41:03,640 Speaker 1: if they don't like or respect their coach. Also, our 2018 01:41:03,720 --> 01:41:08,559 Speaker 1: QB play seems to have regressed. We heard that both 2019 01:41:08,640 --> 01:41:11,120 Speaker 1: Mattie p and Judge lost the locker room as head 2020 01:41:11,120 --> 01:41:14,400 Speaker 1: coaches and weren't very liked. While Mattie p might be 2021 01:41:14,400 --> 01:41:17,400 Speaker 1: an okay coordinator, could he really be a crappy old 2022 01:41:17,400 --> 01:41:19,960 Speaker 1: line coach? Same for Judge. We talk about how Mac 2023 01:41:20,120 --> 01:41:24,439 Speaker 1: isn't progressing and isn't seeing it well? Is Judge seeing it? 2024 01:41:24,520 --> 01:41:26,759 Speaker 1: Is he able to coach Mac up? I'm not trying 2025 01:41:26,800 --> 01:41:29,880 Speaker 1: to give Mac a pass, but even the wide receivers 2026 01:41:29,880 --> 01:41:33,320 Speaker 1: started started aren't looking all right and now we're having 2027 01:41:33,880 --> 01:41:38,080 Speaker 1: clubs for hands. Has our offense stopped believing this could work? 2028 01:41:38,479 --> 01:41:41,800 Speaker 1: Have the two head offensive coaches lost the locker room. 2029 01:41:42,360 --> 01:41:44,519 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know, I don't I don't 2030 01:41:44,520 --> 01:41:46,519 Speaker 1: I don't think yet, But I'll just say this, I'm 2031 01:41:46,560 --> 01:41:48,439 Speaker 1: I don't know what we're gonna see on Sunday, but 2032 01:41:48,520 --> 01:41:50,360 Speaker 1: I would hope that it seems like a team that 2033 01:41:50,560 --> 01:41:53,839 Speaker 1: has refocused and you know, has some of that energy 2034 01:41:54,200 --> 01:41:56,800 Speaker 1: that you talk about, because I did feel earlier in 2035 01:41:56,840 --> 01:41:58,639 Speaker 1: the year it felt a little bit like the offensive 2036 01:41:58,640 --> 01:42:01,519 Speaker 1: line maybe a little bit disengaged. I mean, I still 2037 01:42:01,520 --> 01:42:03,400 Speaker 1: feel out a little bit about about win. I mean, 2038 01:42:03,439 --> 01:42:05,320 Speaker 1: Brown Is I think settled in a little bit and 2039 01:42:05,439 --> 01:42:09,040 Speaker 1: and been better. But I don't know, I'm kind of 2040 01:42:09,080 --> 01:42:11,240 Speaker 1: trying not to jump to conclusions right now, right before 2041 01:42:11,280 --> 01:42:12,920 Speaker 1: we got these big eight games, because this is where 2042 01:42:12,960 --> 01:42:14,439 Speaker 1: this is going to be the defining part of this 2043 01:42:14,479 --> 01:42:17,759 Speaker 1: season and everything we talk about the whole lost season. 2044 01:42:17,800 --> 01:42:19,759 Speaker 1: I think it is going to be within these eight games, 2045 01:42:19,760 --> 01:42:22,280 Speaker 1: not really what happened earlier in the season. I think 2046 01:42:22,280 --> 01:42:25,200 Speaker 1: those games are like preseason games essentially to me. Now, 2047 01:42:25,439 --> 01:42:30,599 Speaker 1: hopefully Andrews coming back solidifies two positions center and guard. Yeah, 2048 01:42:30,680 --> 01:42:34,519 Speaker 1: you know, I try not to look into the five 2049 01:42:34,560 --> 01:42:37,120 Speaker 1: seconds of practice that they let us watch, But Isaiah 2050 01:42:37,120 --> 01:42:40,519 Speaker 1: Winn was taking some reps at left tackle and Trent 2051 01:42:40,640 --> 01:42:44,120 Speaker 1: at right. So could there be a major scheme change. Yeah, 2052 01:42:44,360 --> 01:42:47,360 Speaker 1: they could be switching back to where they were last year. 2053 01:42:47,479 --> 01:42:50,120 Speaker 1: That is a scheme change a little bit, not really, No, 2054 01:42:50,640 --> 01:42:54,639 Speaker 1: I mean personnel change. Yeah, We've talked about Whin all 2055 01:42:54,680 --> 01:42:59,040 Speaker 1: over the place, Tier about how he just hasn't transitioned 2056 01:42:59,080 --> 01:43:02,400 Speaker 1: to right tackle. You know, it's footwork, it's been awful 2057 01:43:02,560 --> 01:43:05,439 Speaker 1: at right tackle. It's just it looks like he's he's 2058 01:43:05,479 --> 01:43:09,080 Speaker 1: backwards right, it looks like he's he's been flipped, and uh, 2059 01:43:09,160 --> 01:43:11,280 Speaker 1: you know, maybe they feel like go back to where 2060 01:43:11,280 --> 01:43:13,960 Speaker 1: it was last year and and that will see I 2061 01:43:13,960 --> 01:43:15,920 Speaker 1: don't I don't think that gets enough attention. I think 2062 01:43:15,920 --> 01:43:18,360 Speaker 1: everybody just loves to kill Isaiah Winn. And it's just 2063 01:43:18,439 --> 01:43:21,400 Speaker 1: like slightly in his defense, like all of a sudden, 2064 01:43:21,400 --> 01:43:23,080 Speaker 1: he's playing on the right side, and it's just like, no, 2065 01:43:23,240 --> 01:43:25,240 Speaker 1: they are, that's where you're playing now, like like it's 2066 01:43:25,280 --> 01:43:27,400 Speaker 1: it's not the Bill said, you know, some people can 2067 01:43:27,439 --> 01:43:29,760 Speaker 1: do it, but not everyone can go from one side 2068 01:43:29,800 --> 01:43:31,880 Speaker 1: to the other trans gone from one side to the 2069 01:43:31,880 --> 01:43:34,360 Speaker 1: other like nothing, like he can do it yeah easily, 2070 01:43:34,880 --> 01:43:36,880 Speaker 1: but yeah, I mean it's like, you know, if you're 2071 01:43:37,000 --> 01:43:39,200 Speaker 1: righty and someone hands your dependance says you can only 2072 01:43:39,280 --> 01:43:42,840 Speaker 1: right left handed all day, like just right Paula that 2073 01:43:42,920 --> 01:43:46,960 Speaker 1: because unless you're unless you're what's it, you know, use 2074 01:43:47,080 --> 01:43:51,320 Speaker 1: both hands like it's for some guyshibious. You know, when 2075 01:43:51,360 --> 01:43:53,960 Speaker 1: did Trent Brown or like, you know, two different makeups. 2076 01:43:54,040 --> 01:43:56,439 Speaker 1: You know when is a big guy, but he's he's 2077 01:43:56,520 --> 01:43:59,280 Speaker 1: shorter obviously in a little bit, you know, yeah, Trent 2078 01:43:59,320 --> 01:44:03,280 Speaker 1: Brown's taller. Does this do anything? Like if they decided 2079 01:44:03,600 --> 01:44:05,800 Speaker 1: we are going to run the RPO a little bit more, 2080 01:44:06,320 --> 01:44:09,040 Speaker 1: does this change that? Now Trent's on the other side. 2081 01:44:09,280 --> 01:44:11,559 Speaker 1: You know, with with Matt being a you know, a righty, 2082 01:44:11,800 --> 01:44:14,840 Speaker 1: does that change it and how they you know, might 2083 01:44:14,920 --> 01:44:21,720 Speaker 1: approach RPOs? I think what it does, is it your 2084 01:44:21,760 --> 01:44:24,240 Speaker 1: two best run blockers are Trent Brown and Mike on Winnu. 2085 01:44:24,479 --> 01:44:26,400 Speaker 1: So now that you put them on the same side 2086 01:44:26,400 --> 01:44:31,120 Speaker 1: of the line, that can be a hopefully that could 2087 01:44:31,200 --> 01:44:35,599 Speaker 1: be a something that works consistently, right like, we're just 2088 01:44:35,640 --> 01:44:38,000 Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna run it. Meanwhile on the other side 2089 01:44:38,040 --> 01:44:41,120 Speaker 1: during passing. So now now I mean to your think, 2090 01:44:41,200 --> 01:44:43,639 Speaker 1: like you know, a scheme change. Maybe they're gonna power 2091 01:44:43,800 --> 01:44:45,479 Speaker 1: up on that right side and they're going to become 2092 01:44:45,479 --> 01:44:48,280 Speaker 1: a power running team and predominantly to the right right right, 2093 01:44:48,320 --> 01:44:50,280 Speaker 1: I don't know who knows, Well, that's what they did 2094 01:44:50,400 --> 01:44:52,320 Speaker 1: last year. And then you know you have you get 2095 01:44:52,320 --> 01:44:54,200 Speaker 1: Trent Brown and on Winnu. You get them on a 2096 01:44:54,280 --> 01:44:56,720 Speaker 1: on a double team, you pull the guard and now 2097 01:44:56,760 --> 01:44:58,720 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, we're moving people and then you 2098 01:44:58,800 --> 01:45:00,800 Speaker 1: hit the play action off of the pulling guard and 2099 01:45:00,800 --> 01:45:02,599 Speaker 1: now we have an offense, right like, now we're starting 2100 01:45:02,600 --> 01:45:05,599 Speaker 1: to sequence things together. That's the Josh McDaniel's offense, right, 2101 01:45:05,640 --> 01:45:08,000 Speaker 1: That's what they were doing last year. So if that's 2102 01:45:08,120 --> 01:45:11,759 Speaker 1: the direction that we're moving in, then yeah, okay, maybe 2103 01:45:11,760 --> 01:45:13,240 Speaker 1: that's the step in the right. I mean last year 2104 01:45:13,280 --> 01:45:16,320 Speaker 1: was Shack Mason and Trent I should say, but same idea, right, 2105 01:45:16,360 --> 01:45:19,320 Speaker 1: same philosophy. I just think like them passing down power 2106 01:45:19,400 --> 01:45:21,479 Speaker 1: rushers off the left side when you got Winning Strange, 2107 01:45:21,520 --> 01:45:24,360 Speaker 1: now that that's a concern, right, Like, that's something that 2108 01:45:24,439 --> 01:45:26,599 Speaker 1: now you really have to think about. And it's mac 2109 01:45:26,640 --> 01:45:30,400 Speaker 1: mac backside too, so I know there's always give and 2110 01:45:30,439 --> 01:45:32,040 Speaker 1: take with everything that they do. I mean, I guess 2111 01:45:32,080 --> 01:45:34,160 Speaker 1: it speaks to why they might have initially done it. 2112 01:45:34,200 --> 01:45:36,240 Speaker 1: But that's why I'm not looking too much into the 2113 01:45:36,280 --> 01:45:39,880 Speaker 1: fact that they showed us that today because I just 2114 01:45:40,280 --> 01:45:42,720 Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of issues with Win in 2115 01:45:42,800 --> 01:45:45,240 Speaker 1: strange next to each other on the left side. I mean, 2116 01:45:45,240 --> 01:45:47,920 Speaker 1: Mike on Weddow couldn't play next to Win on the 2117 01:45:48,000 --> 01:45:53,160 Speaker 1: left side left guard last year Cole Strange with him there. 2118 01:45:53,280 --> 01:45:56,599 Speaker 1: It just that seems like a disaster. We'll see, well, 2119 01:45:56,680 --> 01:45:58,639 Speaker 1: you know, just something to keep in mind on Sunday 2120 01:45:58,640 --> 01:46:02,480 Speaker 1: when they start at one up and whatnot. Yep. Um 2121 01:46:02,600 --> 01:46:05,280 Speaker 1: David Bethlehem wants to know why has John hu Smith 2122 01:46:05,320 --> 01:46:07,920 Speaker 1: been in effective this season. Who else can run snappy 2123 01:46:08,000 --> 01:46:12,280 Speaker 1: routes besides Myers? I don't know. It's the same thing. 2124 01:46:12,320 --> 01:46:13,600 Speaker 1: I mean, it's the same thing as last year. I 2125 01:46:13,720 --> 01:46:16,439 Speaker 1: was gonna say, why was he ineffective? Way? Yeah, yeah, 2126 01:46:16,439 --> 01:46:18,439 Speaker 1: it's been. It's been. It's one of those guys that 2127 01:46:18,680 --> 01:46:22,519 Speaker 1: just doesn't really fit. But don't you get a sense 2128 01:46:22,600 --> 01:46:26,120 Speaker 1: he's starting to get a little bit more integrated not 2129 01:46:28,720 --> 01:46:30,960 Speaker 1: other week. And the only time he ever catches passes 2130 01:46:31,000 --> 01:46:33,439 Speaker 1: when they throw screens to him. I mean, I know 2131 01:46:33,479 --> 01:46:36,920 Speaker 1: everyone will probably have numbers that, but I just to 2132 01:46:37,000 --> 01:46:39,599 Speaker 1: my mind's eye, they have to design a play to 2133 01:46:39,600 --> 01:46:41,400 Speaker 1: throw the ball to him for him to contribute. The 2134 01:46:41,400 --> 01:46:43,280 Speaker 1: biggest issue that I have with a guy like Johnny 2135 01:46:43,520 --> 01:46:50,600 Speaker 1: is not necessarily his production. It's more the evaluation of 2136 01:46:50,640 --> 01:46:53,040 Speaker 1: the player in free agency versus your plan for him 2137 01:46:53,040 --> 01:46:54,679 Speaker 1: as a coaching staff. Like, if you're going to sign 2138 01:46:54,760 --> 01:46:57,400 Speaker 1: a guy you know, don't you have to have some 2139 01:46:57,400 --> 01:46:59,240 Speaker 1: sort of a plan of how you're going to use him? 2140 01:46:59,240 --> 01:47:02,000 Speaker 1: And what was the plan plan with Johnny Smith? Because 2141 01:47:02,920 --> 01:47:04,840 Speaker 1: he is the type of receiver that needs to be 2142 01:47:04,880 --> 01:47:07,640 Speaker 1: schemed open and needs to be his screens or misdirection, 2143 01:47:07,720 --> 01:47:09,920 Speaker 1: and he's a catch and run player. He's not a 2144 01:47:10,000 --> 01:47:12,280 Speaker 1: route runner. He can run the seam a little bit, 2145 01:47:12,360 --> 01:47:15,479 Speaker 1: but for the most part, he's a straight line guy. 2146 01:47:15,600 --> 01:47:17,320 Speaker 1: Like you get the football in his hands and he 2147 01:47:17,400 --> 01:47:20,360 Speaker 1: goes like that's the idea of Johnny Smith. So when 2148 01:47:20,400 --> 01:47:22,960 Speaker 1: you acquired him in free agency, when you signed him, 2149 01:47:23,200 --> 01:47:26,360 Speaker 1: there had to have been some semblance of a plan 2150 01:47:26,479 --> 01:47:28,800 Speaker 1: of how exactly we're going to use this player because 2151 01:47:28,800 --> 01:47:31,920 Speaker 1: he is a unique player. This isn't you know, Hunter 2152 01:47:32,000 --> 01:47:34,160 Speaker 1: Henry is a traditional tight end, right, you can put 2153 01:47:34,240 --> 01:47:36,400 Speaker 1: him on a tight end rout tree, you can put 2154 01:47:36,439 --> 01:47:38,559 Speaker 1: him in line and just have him play why like 2155 01:47:38,600 --> 01:47:41,439 Speaker 1: the whole game. Like that's just Hunter Henry is just 2156 01:47:41,560 --> 01:47:45,760 Speaker 1: your natural, traditional why tight end. Johnny Smith's his own thing. 2157 01:47:45,840 --> 01:47:47,160 Speaker 1: So if you don't have a plan for him, he's 2158 01:47:47,160 --> 01:47:49,040 Speaker 1: not going to be good. Now, he's not a smooth athlete, 2159 01:47:49,080 --> 01:47:51,360 Speaker 1: like he's just he's very choppy. And it's funny because 2160 01:47:51,400 --> 01:47:54,080 Speaker 1: he is an incredibly good athe but he just agree 2161 01:47:54,120 --> 01:47:57,200 Speaker 1: with you at all and and and to your point 2162 01:47:57,200 --> 01:47:58,880 Speaker 1: of than like like at this point, part of me 2163 01:47:58,960 --> 01:48:01,320 Speaker 1: just feels like we got money to spend, we have 2164 01:48:01,400 --> 01:48:05,200 Speaker 1: no tight ends. It's an absolute like just black hole 2165 01:48:05,240 --> 01:48:07,160 Speaker 1: in terms of production in twenty nineteen to tight end, 2166 01:48:07,600 --> 01:48:10,320 Speaker 1: let's just grab these guys who who have been you know, 2167 01:48:10,400 --> 01:48:13,960 Speaker 1: and to the other guy to wonder, like with Henry, 2168 01:48:14,080 --> 01:48:16,800 Speaker 1: not that Henry was like George Kittle last year, but 2169 01:48:17,360 --> 01:48:20,360 Speaker 1: Henry had a good, solid year and this year he's 2170 01:48:20,439 --> 01:48:24,120 Speaker 1: kind of been an afterthought. And you know, I still 2171 01:48:24,920 --> 01:48:26,640 Speaker 1: I've been wrong because they haven't done it. But I 2172 01:48:26,680 --> 01:48:29,160 Speaker 1: still wonder when you get down there and you're having 2173 01:48:29,200 --> 01:48:31,519 Speaker 1: all these struggles in the red zone, why they haven't 2174 01:48:31,920 --> 01:48:35,519 Speaker 1: really tried to integrate him anymore. Yeah, in the red zone. 2175 01:48:35,560 --> 01:48:36,920 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's funny you said that, Paul and 2176 01:48:37,160 --> 01:48:39,400 Speaker 1: one touchdown, and I'm like, it seems like everybody after 2177 01:48:39,479 --> 01:48:42,519 Speaker 1: Myers is an afterthought, Like everybody like the receivers. I mean, 2178 01:48:42,600 --> 01:48:45,200 Speaker 1: I guess Stevenson you could say he hasn't been an afterthought, 2179 01:48:45,240 --> 01:48:48,639 Speaker 1: but it's like every touch year nobody's involved, every touchdown 2180 01:48:48,680 --> 01:48:51,080 Speaker 1: they get in the red zone is like they finally 2181 01:48:51,120 --> 01:48:54,680 Speaker 1: execute one of those routes, right like as opposed to 2182 01:48:54,920 --> 01:48:58,240 Speaker 1: like we're just gonna remember last year, like Henry would 2183 01:48:58,680 --> 01:49:01,600 Speaker 1: just run run a little too, He'd run into the 2184 01:49:01,680 --> 01:49:04,280 Speaker 1: end zone, turn box a guy out, No nothing, fancy no, 2185 01:49:04,600 --> 01:49:07,439 Speaker 1: like you know, he'd be like a yard yard over 2186 01:49:07,479 --> 01:49:10,920 Speaker 1: the goal line, use his big frame like a basketball player, 2187 01:49:10,960 --> 01:49:13,559 Speaker 1: and he'd catch a touchdown. I mean, I think Evan 2188 01:49:13,640 --> 01:49:15,040 Speaker 1: might back me up on this, but I've seen like 2189 01:49:15,080 --> 01:49:17,160 Speaker 1: a fair number of those plays this year where it's 2190 01:49:17,240 --> 01:49:19,760 Speaker 1: it's been you know, and you kind of see him 2191 01:49:19,800 --> 01:49:23,080 Speaker 1: and he turns and he's I think, gets us back 2192 01:49:23,080 --> 01:49:25,679 Speaker 1: to Mac. I can't honestly say that he's not part 2193 01:49:25,680 --> 01:49:27,960 Speaker 1: of the problem. I think last year he had just 2194 01:49:28,000 --> 01:49:31,280 Speaker 1: so much more trust and everything that was going on 2195 01:49:31,360 --> 01:49:33,920 Speaker 1: around him, where this year we're talking to you know, 2196 01:49:33,960 --> 01:49:36,640 Speaker 1: the route that Paul's talking about, you gotta throw that 2197 01:49:36,760 --> 01:49:39,400 Speaker 1: before the receiver comes out of the break, right, So 2198 01:49:39,479 --> 01:49:41,479 Speaker 1: if if he doesn't trust this guy, all of a sudden, 2199 01:49:41,479 --> 01:49:43,280 Speaker 1: now it's a pick six going in the other direction. 2200 01:49:43,320 --> 01:49:45,000 Speaker 1: And I think that that's in his head. You call 2201 01:49:45,040 --> 01:49:48,280 Speaker 1: it trust? Was it more just I'm just doing what 2202 01:49:48,320 --> 01:49:50,000 Speaker 1: they tell me to do, and then this year he's 2203 01:49:50,040 --> 01:49:53,120 Speaker 1: thinking too much. I think it's trust because it's he's 2204 01:49:53,120 --> 01:49:56,320 Speaker 1: thrown so many picks already this year that if you're 2205 01:49:56,439 --> 01:49:59,360 Speaker 1: on the three yard line, let's call it, and you're 2206 01:49:59,400 --> 01:50:01,559 Speaker 1: trying to run a sit route to Hunter Henry on 2207 01:50:01,600 --> 01:50:04,320 Speaker 1: the goal line and he falls or he stumbles, and 2208 01:50:04,320 --> 01:50:05,840 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden it's to pick six going 2209 01:50:05,840 --> 01:50:08,160 Speaker 1: in the other direction, and it's like, oh here, you know, 2210 01:50:08,200 --> 01:50:10,280 Speaker 1: here we go again, right, you know? So, I think 2211 01:50:10,280 --> 01:50:12,320 Speaker 1: a lot of the instances with Mac that you're seeing 2212 01:50:12,360 --> 01:50:15,559 Speaker 1: on tape is that he wants he's no longer anticipating throws. 2213 01:50:15,840 --> 01:50:17,519 Speaker 1: He needs to see it open. The only guy that 2214 01:50:17,520 --> 01:50:20,920 Speaker 1: he anticipates throws with his Jacobi. Everybody else needs to 2215 01:50:20,960 --> 01:50:24,080 Speaker 1: show Mac I am open, throw me the ball before 2216 01:50:24,080 --> 01:50:26,320 Speaker 1: he's going to throw the football because so many bad 2217 01:50:26,360 --> 01:50:30,560 Speaker 1: things have happened this year off of those trust throws 2218 01:50:30,600 --> 01:50:32,559 Speaker 1: that he just won't pull the trigger. And that's the 2219 01:50:32,560 --> 01:50:34,040 Speaker 1: thing with him. And by that point is too late 2220 01:50:34,080 --> 01:50:36,960 Speaker 1: because he doesn't have like if he's he sees it late, 2221 01:50:37,040 --> 01:50:39,400 Speaker 1: he can't get it there extra quick to make up 2222 01:50:39,439 --> 01:50:41,200 Speaker 1: for that disc difference. And I think that you know, 2223 01:50:41,240 --> 01:50:43,559 Speaker 1: that goes to just the problem and not seeing it 2224 01:50:43,600 --> 01:50:45,000 Speaker 1: like he did. He has to see it, He has 2225 01:50:45,040 --> 01:50:46,720 Speaker 1: to anticipate, he has to be able to throw with 2226 01:50:47,120 --> 01:50:49,160 Speaker 1: confidence to these guys. And I mean, it's just it's 2227 01:50:49,160 --> 01:50:53,759 Speaker 1: all connected. Alex writes in says he loves the addition 2228 01:50:53,800 --> 01:50:56,679 Speaker 1: of Evan. I wish he could be in every show 2229 01:50:56,960 --> 01:51:00,559 Speaker 1: a regular Well he is in Catch twenty two, right, Um. 2230 01:51:00,600 --> 01:51:04,439 Speaker 1: He really is relatable to millennials growing up as a 2231 01:51:04,479 --> 01:51:07,240 Speaker 1: fan of this team and just adds unmatched context that 2232 01:51:07,320 --> 01:51:10,599 Speaker 1: a normal viewer wouldn't know. I also think he brings 2233 01:51:10,600 --> 01:51:13,559 Speaker 1: the best out of Paul when Evan is in the room, 2234 01:51:13,640 --> 01:51:15,559 Speaker 1: Paul seems to want to bring his a game to 2235 01:51:15,600 --> 01:51:20,600 Speaker 1: try to match Evan's football prowess. He also seems he 2236 01:51:20,640 --> 01:51:25,560 Speaker 1: also seems to be extra contrarian to everything. Evan says, Wow, 2237 01:51:25,720 --> 01:51:28,880 Speaker 1: these compliments, thank you. Perhaps Paul is in a Brady 2238 01:51:28,920 --> 01:51:31,559 Speaker 1: Bledsoell situation he sees a young stud in the making 2239 01:51:31,760 --> 01:51:37,439 Speaker 1: his concern. Yeah, I don't really buy that. But I 2240 01:51:37,439 --> 01:51:40,240 Speaker 1: think Paul's consistent. I think you're you're always you just 2241 01:51:40,280 --> 01:51:44,479 Speaker 1: always have your I never care about any event than 2242 01:51:44,640 --> 01:51:48,040 Speaker 1: I'm very consistent. Sounds very nice, Thank you. I just 2243 01:51:48,040 --> 01:51:50,960 Speaker 1: wanted to feel at home. Mike's and Florida on the 2244 01:51:50,960 --> 01:51:54,960 Speaker 1: A sticket outline. What's up, Mike, Mike Stinky Florida. Yeah, 2245 01:51:55,160 --> 01:52:00,160 Speaker 1: you guys can hear me? Yes? Hey real quick? Ums 2246 01:52:00,160 --> 01:52:02,639 Speaker 1: were touching on it a little bit what's your opinion 2247 01:52:02,760 --> 01:52:07,640 Speaker 1: or your thoughts on max ability to as we like 2248 01:52:07,720 --> 01:52:10,640 Speaker 1: to say, or people call it, throw people open. Is 2249 01:52:10,640 --> 01:52:13,960 Speaker 1: that something he can do something you can't do. I 2250 01:52:14,240 --> 01:52:16,360 Speaker 1: think just gets back to what Evan was just talking 2251 01:52:16,360 --> 01:52:19,000 Speaker 1: about trust. You know, I don't think right now he 2252 01:52:19,040 --> 01:52:22,040 Speaker 1: does that. He doesn't do that like throwing it on 2253 01:52:22,080 --> 01:52:24,879 Speaker 1: the break when you're when you see the guy's numbers, 2254 01:52:25,040 --> 01:52:27,559 Speaker 1: throw it anyway because you're confident he's going to break 2255 01:52:27,560 --> 01:52:30,559 Speaker 1: the right way at the right depth and the ball's 2256 01:52:30,600 --> 01:52:33,200 Speaker 1: there as he makes his break. But yeah, he's not 2257 01:52:33,200 --> 01:52:35,640 Speaker 1: doing that. He's not, I mean personally. That's why I 2258 01:52:36,200 --> 01:52:38,400 Speaker 1: liked the you know, it was a small sample. I 2259 01:52:38,439 --> 01:52:41,000 Speaker 1: admit that the handful of plays they made in the 2260 01:52:41,040 --> 01:52:43,400 Speaker 1: Baltimore game, because I thought there were some examples of 2261 01:52:43,400 --> 01:52:46,000 Speaker 1: that at the back shoulder to Davante park They weren't 2262 01:52:46,000 --> 01:52:48,120 Speaker 1: just it wasn't like he was just streaking free the 2263 01:52:48,160 --> 01:52:51,000 Speaker 1: whole time. He kind of threw them open, and Parker 2264 01:52:51,080 --> 01:52:53,559 Speaker 1: made adjustments on the ball and made they made some 2265 01:52:53,640 --> 01:52:56,679 Speaker 1: plays that you know, when they would developing, you weren't 2266 01:52:56,680 --> 01:52:59,320 Speaker 1: sure that that was there. You know, I go, I 2267 01:53:00,080 --> 01:53:02,160 Speaker 1: the trust thing is the biggest thing for me. Because 2268 01:53:02,400 --> 01:53:05,240 Speaker 1: I think the Jacobe Myers pick six that didn't count 2269 01:53:05,320 --> 01:53:07,280 Speaker 1: is the perfect example of that, right, Like he throws 2270 01:53:07,320 --> 01:53:09,639 Speaker 1: it before Jacoby comes out of the break. He thinks 2271 01:53:09,680 --> 01:53:13,320 Speaker 1: he's breaking out. Jacoby breaks in pick again, And those 2272 01:53:13,360 --> 01:53:16,320 Speaker 1: types of plays, even the ones that don't count, those 2273 01:53:16,640 --> 01:53:18,720 Speaker 1: you log that in the computer, right, And then all 2274 01:53:18,760 --> 01:53:21,679 Speaker 1: of a sudden it's like, I'm not one hundred percent 2275 01:53:21,680 --> 01:53:25,760 Speaker 1: sure that we're on the same page here, and there's hesitation, 2276 01:53:26,040 --> 01:53:30,479 Speaker 1: and I when it comes to throwing guys open. Look, 2277 01:53:30,479 --> 01:53:32,160 Speaker 1: I know that the guys that he played with at 2278 01:53:32,160 --> 01:53:36,479 Speaker 1: Alabama were supremely talented players. But if you go and 2279 01:53:36,520 --> 01:53:40,479 Speaker 1: turn on that his twenty twenty season Abama and watch 2280 01:53:40,560 --> 01:53:43,840 Speaker 1: Davante Smith and John Metchi make plays on the ball 2281 01:53:43,840 --> 01:53:46,639 Speaker 1: down the field, they're not always wide open, right, And 2282 01:53:46,640 --> 01:53:49,200 Speaker 1: and Mac is throwing the ball in spots and just 2283 01:53:49,320 --> 01:53:52,040 Speaker 1: letting them go up and pluck the ball over defenders, 2284 01:53:52,040 --> 01:53:54,559 Speaker 1: because so he had that in him. This has been 2285 01:53:56,040 --> 01:54:00,160 Speaker 1: trained out of him, right, is point. It's also that 2286 01:54:00,200 --> 01:54:02,599 Speaker 1: trust knowing that the guy I'm throwing too is better 2287 01:54:02,640 --> 01:54:05,400 Speaker 1: than the guy covering him. Yeah, but I'm not saying 2288 01:54:05,400 --> 01:54:08,400 Speaker 1: that back shoulder passes have you know, don't need to 2289 01:54:08,439 --> 01:54:10,360 Speaker 1: be accurate. They do. They need to be Oh, I 2290 01:54:10,400 --> 01:54:13,240 Speaker 1: think they need to pinpoint. But it's to me, that's 2291 01:54:13,280 --> 01:54:16,000 Speaker 1: not the same as like hitting a guy before he 2292 01:54:16,080 --> 01:54:18,880 Speaker 1: makes his break, you know, knowing you know, it's a 2293 01:54:18,880 --> 01:54:22,439 Speaker 1: little it's a different type of of play. You know, 2294 01:54:22,520 --> 01:54:24,760 Speaker 1: it's more of a jump ball where it's very hard 2295 01:54:24,760 --> 01:54:28,160 Speaker 1: to defend the back shoulder pass, you know, but when 2296 01:54:28,200 --> 01:54:31,840 Speaker 1: you throw a guy open, he could be defended. You know, 2297 01:54:31,880 --> 01:54:33,480 Speaker 1: the guy could be on his hip, but you know 2298 01:54:33,560 --> 01:54:36,640 Speaker 1: he's gonna make the break and he's gonna he's gonna 2299 01:54:36,680 --> 01:54:39,360 Speaker 1: get that step out of the break and the ball's 2300 01:54:39,400 --> 01:54:41,800 Speaker 1: going to arrive on time. He doesn't know any of 2301 01:54:41,800 --> 01:54:43,800 Speaker 1: those things right now. He doesn't know the guy's going 2302 01:54:43,840 --> 01:54:48,000 Speaker 1: to make the break. I think he doesn't notice that. Mike, Yeah, 2303 01:54:48,240 --> 01:54:50,960 Speaker 1: go ahead, Mike. Yeah. I was just gonna say, how 2304 01:54:50,960 --> 01:54:53,640 Speaker 1: how much do you think that limits this offense? And 2305 01:54:53,680 --> 01:54:56,280 Speaker 1: if he doesn't have those guys to be able to 2306 01:54:56,280 --> 01:54:59,560 Speaker 1: do that with Oh, I think it's it's you're welcome. 2307 01:55:00,160 --> 01:55:03,320 Speaker 1: I think it's usually it's hugely limited. Yeah, it really 2308 01:55:03,440 --> 01:55:04,880 Speaker 1: is a huge part of it. I mean, and I 2309 01:55:04,880 --> 01:55:06,280 Speaker 1: think it just goes back to the point of like 2310 01:55:06,280 --> 01:55:08,720 Speaker 1: getting back to you know what Max strins were and 2311 01:55:08,800 --> 01:55:11,240 Speaker 1: what he was good at coming out, And I think 2312 01:55:11,320 --> 01:55:12,920 Speaker 1: you know, if you can't get back to those things, 2313 01:55:12,920 --> 01:55:15,200 Speaker 1: then you're never gonna hit any kind of ceiling with him. 2314 01:55:15,200 --> 01:55:17,000 Speaker 1: He's got to do the things he did well coming 2315 01:55:17,040 --> 01:55:20,080 Speaker 1: out first and foremost. All right, that's gonna be it 2316 01:55:20,160 --> 01:55:24,160 Speaker 1: for this edition of Patriots Unfiltered.
