Yeah, there's I've actually never seen soap 63 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: with a slot. Well this isn't it, but it's close. 64 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: The concept is the same, alright, So we're gonna get 65 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,119 Speaker 1: into that little later. I'm looking forward to that. Yeah, 66 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: maybe we'll open one up. And yeah, we're gonna definitely 67 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: open one. I'll give each of you or your own 68 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: bar like a shower during the lunch break and yeah, 69 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 1: in the room there, all right, um, Patriots stuff. What's 70 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: going on? Damian Harris, Okay, yeah I heard that last week. Yeah, 71 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 1: Paul put a video up about it, you know, and 72 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 1: breaking down the dog and yeah, but I saw some video, 73 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: some Mac Jones videos on social media NonStop. I mean 74 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: him working out out there, sweat boff out in California. 75 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: I mean he does look different, right, he does. He 76 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: does as expected. I mean it's you know, year two. 77 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 1: NFL system can take from that what you whatever it 78 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: might mean of nutrition and strength training and all the 79 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: things I mean expected expected. Hopefully it pays off, just 80 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: with not getting dinked up and having some that's something 81 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:40,720 Speaker 1: I kind of worry about. With him a little bit, 82 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 1: just you know, I think any pocket quarterback you're worried about, 83 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: he's gonna take some hits. So hopefully he's able to 84 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 1: to what do you say, bulk up? He thinned down, 85 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: then he's gonna bulk up, bulk back up at a camp. 86 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: I guess is that what the plan was? That is 87 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: what he said at at medicamp. Yeah, that he will 88 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 1: be putting more back on because he needs to get 89 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: back up to play weight. Yeah, so out in California. 90 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 1: But there's different types of weight. You know, there's just 91 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: like you know, doey weight and then there's like muscle weight. Well, 92 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 1: how do you I mean, how do you do it? 93 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: Once you get going in camp and you're outside and 94 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 1: you're sweating, I mean, how do you put good weight on? 95 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: Well that's the problem. I mean, you know, you hear 96 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:23,039 Speaker 1: these stories of particularly a lineman having to put calories on, 97 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: you know, like you know, ingesting like seven thousand and 98 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 1: eight thousand calories a day just to keep the weight 99 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: on because they're losing weight so easily during camp. That's 100 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: a good video with what I eat in a day 101 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: with Trent Brown, you know, like how many calories does 102 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: that guy have to consume, especially when you get going 103 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 1: in the heat of August and you're out there, ye, 104 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 1: sweating your ass off. I feel like the perfect person 105 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: for that would be cool. Strange, Yeah, five guys, that's 106 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 1: just because you want to be up with five guys 107 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: with him, and that's a good way to get some 108 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 1: some quick calories. But how do you how does Bob 109 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: manage that? The uh, what's Bob's last name? Bob? The 110 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:05,840 Speaker 1: mustriicianist ted Ted Harper. I was thinking of Bob Harper. 111 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: Who's Bob? I don't know, Sorry, Yeah, I think Cole 112 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: would be good just from like I'm telling a long 113 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: weekend from like a rookie standpoint, I guess kind of 114 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: seeing like, you know, how he adjusts to the camp 115 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 1: life and then also you know, the training of it 116 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: and the consuming of different. Yeah, I'm sure it was 117 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: like obviously they have camping college football, but this is 118 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 1: a lot different seeing how he handles it all, putting 119 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: on the weight and stuff. Absolutely, I think you're probably 120 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: a little bit more customized. Yeah at the pro level, yeah, 121 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, maybe they get a little bit of 122 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 1: a break right now. But I mean for those rookies yeah, 123 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: but you got to come in and shape, yeah, to 124 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: pass that conditioning. We're un you know. That's why I'm 125 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 1: always curious when I come into the morning just how 126 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: full the parking lot is.

Yeah, I didn't realize. 168 00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: I didn't know that the full set probably have those 169 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: walls up, artificial walls, and then most people are behind them, 170 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,959 Speaker 1: but not Bruce. No, he just kind of post it 171 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: up like he's the sheriff, you know, leader to watch him. 172 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,320 Speaker 1: But um, but it was fun. I mean it's interesting 173 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: we're talking about the fans and the drums and the 174 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,959 Speaker 1: songs and everything that they do and for it. Yeah, 175 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: it's great. It's such a unique, a unique fan experience 176 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 1: with stadium. Yeah really, I mean it's a nice, intimate, 177 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: twenty five thousand seat stadium in Boston would be awesome 178 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 1: for them, Yeah, without feeling like half of it, Yeah, 179 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: in the upper bowls are empty. Yeah. Yeah. But it 180 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 1: was a good crowd. I mean, there a lot of 181 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: people seem, you know, very invested, and you know that 182 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: the chance we're we're going. It's just funny how soccer 183 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,559 Speaker 1: kind of has this own little fan experience to itself, 184 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,319 Speaker 1: and really no other sport has. You have to sort 185 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: of create your own enthusiasm. I feel, no, I fred Um, 186 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 1: you know, on the small stadium. I think that would 187 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: be so perfect for them. Yeah, from a noise standpoint, 188 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, would you imagine that fort in the twenty 189 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 1: five thousand seed stadium as opposed to sixty five thousand, Right, Well, 190 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 1: that was a little weird to me was that they 191 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 1: gave one guy a microphone. So I'm like, this is 192 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 1: strange you give a fan a microphone who's like kind 193 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: of leading the chance. But maybe I guess if you're 194 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: in a small stadium, you wouldn't need to do that 195 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 1: to propel it as much. But but it was. It 196 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 1: was fun. My in laws they very much enjoyed it, 197 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 1: and uh, it was just a beautiful, beautiful night. I 198 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,199 Speaker 1: feel like it was a really competitive game too, with 199 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 1: a match two with not a lot of stoppage like 200 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,959 Speaker 1: I feel like the last home match they had it 201 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: was a lot of yellow cards, a lot of just 202 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,079 Speaker 1: like the flow wasn't there. Yeah, where I feel like 203 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: this of course, it was just like, well the rest 204 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: just signed the new guy from it was supposed to 205 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 1: be pretty good. Yeah yeah, yeah, well I know they 206 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,959 Speaker 1: lost a couple guys, but Matt Turner, yeah, it's it's 207 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 1: it's amazing. The sport. Just the skill with the feet, 208 00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 1: stop and run full speed, all right, but enough soccer, 209 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: back to American football. Yeah, yeah, so we got what 210 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: Watson still working his stuff out. We talked a little 211 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,079 Speaker 1: bit about that last week. But I was listening to 212 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: one of Paul's shows this morning and they're still on 213 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 1: this case, and they they're citing mostly Tom Curran and 214 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 1: Phil Perry about the transformation of the offense. It's gonna 215 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: be a lot different than anything we've seen. I mean, 216 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe I think there's gonna be some 217 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 1: changes to it, but I don't think it's gonna be 218 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:37,079 Speaker 1: this dramatic thing. I think it's probably more. And I 219 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:40,319 Speaker 1: know I was listening to Ted Johnson and Adam Jones 220 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 1: talking about it for I'm sure that's what you were 221 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 1: referring to on the Sports Hub. I think it's as much, 222 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 1: if not more, to do with the coaches than anything 223 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 1: else you do. Um. I just think you have two 224 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: coaches that have never learned that system, Like they don't 225 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: know that offensive system well enough to be able to 226 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: teach it. I don't think so. I think you make 227 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 1: you make some alterations to it. I don't I'm kind 228 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: of with Fred. I don't think it's like completely tear 229 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 1: that up and throw it away and let's take this 230 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 1: entire new offensive system and put it in. I mean, 231 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:13,839 Speaker 1: is there anything I don't think it's like that. I 232 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 1: know it's just mini camp, but is there anything that 233 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 1: we saw in mini camp that would say, oh wow, 234 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 1: that's new. No, it was sideline passes, quick passes, get 235 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 1: the ball out of it. A lot of the timing 236 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: stuff I did see. Now, like Mike and I've been 237 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: talking because you've been away, Fred, so you're not really 238 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 1: privy to our our high level football talks been you know, months, 239 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,599 Speaker 1: we're talking about rpospos like maybe more college kind of 240 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,199 Speaker 1: stuff that Mac Jones is more familiar with from Alabama. 241 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,719 Speaker 1: So not him running by the way right. RPO is 242 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 1: a run pass option, that's right, Not Mac Jones running 243 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,559 Speaker 1: that's right, that's right, not read options right exactly. But 244 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: one thing that I did hear and I forget was 245 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: I think it was one of our coaches who said it. 246 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 1: He said that when you've got the fullback here, you know, 247 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,439 Speaker 1: that kind of dictates the play a little bit. And 248 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: we're not running the fullback anymore, so that that kind 249 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: of made me think, Okay, maybe they do want to 250 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 1: get a little bit more deceptive on offense, which would 251 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,719 Speaker 1: lend to the players that have more, you know, and 252 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: you know that's maybe what you look back like. A 253 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,199 Speaker 1: guy like Ty Montgomery was signed, you know, with an 254 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 1: idea of being less predictable when he's on the field. Right, 255 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: you know, you're right when I watched in the spring, 256 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 1: I'm not Johnny Football, Like I'm not Greg Badard. I'm 257 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: not gonna sit here and break down well they're running 258 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 1: the you know, the Ron Earhart system or whatever. Like, yeah, 259 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,599 Speaker 1: I know West Coast offense and these terms. I'm not 260 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 1: sure I can tell you breaking it down x's nose 261 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 1: just by watching. Well, that's that's that offense. You know, 262 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:48,200 Speaker 1: I'm not at that level. So to me, a lot 263 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: of the stuff that they ran looked very similar to 264 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: the stuff that I've seen, you know, option routes, quick throws, um, 265 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,599 Speaker 1: you know the little jerk routes that they run with 266 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: the slot guys that you know they cut in they 267 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: break out. The call him Jerick routes because you make 268 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 1: the defensive back look at jerk. Right. I think similar 269 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 1: to the conversation that we've kind of had before, Like 270 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: calculus is calculus, right, but it can be taught different ways. Yeah, 271 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 1: I think it's probably going to be a very similar offense, 272 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:17,079 Speaker 1: just yeah, taught different Well, they mentioned this morning, you 273 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: know it's going to be more McVeigh Shanahan offense. Okay, 274 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 1: first of all, which one, because they're on two separate teams. 275 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 1: One has Matthew Stafford as a quarterback, the other has 276 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 1: Jimmy garoppolore you know Frey Lance now. But from what 277 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 1: we've seen with what Shanahan did with Garoppolo, I think 278 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: it was a lot like what we did when Garoppolo 279 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: was here for those couple of games where he played quick, 280 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: quick passes, quick reads, get the ball out of his hands, 281 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: and you know, Garoppolo ran it perfectly. Um, I think 282 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: Matt can do the same thing. I can. I think 283 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 1: you can do that. But I think Brady also did 284 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: the same thing at times. You know. Yeah, well, I 285 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: think the Shanahan one is a little bit The only 286 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: thing it bumps Hi that and a bump me when 287 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 1: they were talking about him. Them drafting Mac Jones was 288 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: just the you know a lot of wide zone. I 289 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: mean you see a lot of wide zone in camp, 290 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 1: and I think that's what threw people off because that's 291 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 1: the base of of you know, going back to Denver 292 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 1: and their running system and you know, Mike Shanahan and 293 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 1: back in the day. But you know, I think the 294 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: question that there's a few things to think about, like 295 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 1: Josh leaving. You know, like like how much when an 296 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator leaves do you say, all right, let's reassess. 297 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 1: I mean, usually you'd have a new offensive coordinator to 298 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 1: kind of take over and put in their stuff. I mean, 299 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 1: so to that regard, I think, you know, Paul Zone, right, 300 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 1: what does Mac do well? You know, how do you 301 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: tweak it towards Mac? I just think at the end 302 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: of the day, all the things about the play calling 303 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: and the offensive changing, it's all great to talk about 304 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: in the summer, but like we're just going to get 305 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 1: into the games and they have to produce points. Like 306 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 1: you know, there's certainly some things where hey, short yard 307 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 1: is situation. We knew last year Jacob Johnson, here comes 308 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 1: the big fullback. You know, we're like, what do they 309 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: do now in short yardage? What does their you know, 310 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 1: power running game look like now without that fullback position. 311 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: So I think that's certainly like something that's gonna change 312 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 1: without the full back position, which I don't know how much. 313 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 1: It's like an active like we're not doing the full 314 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 1: back anymore, but they don't have one anymore. So you know, 315 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: does somebody like Dalton Keene do they give him a 316 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: look in? You know, not to say he's Kyle Uschek, 317 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: but you know, more of that h back that kind 318 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 1: of role. Incorporate that more into the power formation. So 319 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 1: it'll be things to watch. But I just at the 320 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 1: end of the day, and it's going to be a 321 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: football offense that's loosely looks like everything we've seen, and 322 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: they just they have to produce. They have to move 323 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: the ball. They have to score points. You know, whether 324 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: or not it looks a certain way or if they're 325 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: running more bootlegs or right whatever, here's the ball down 326 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 1: the field. Just do it. Paul, Do you remember I'm 327 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 1: going to test your Patriots memory the first time as 328 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 1: a Patriot person who covered the Patriots we were introduced 329 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: to the h back position and what player it was. 330 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 1: I mean, you may not have been with us at 331 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 1: the time. Wow, it's going back then, huh, Sam Gash 332 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 1: or something like that it was Parcels with Keith Buyers. Keith, Yeah, 333 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 1: that's the first time. Oh h back that what that is? Yeah, 334 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: we asked Belichick what h back stood for and he 335 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:07,959 Speaker 1: said half back. So like, okay, but it isn't right. 336 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, it's absolutely not Brian. That was way. 337 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,159 Speaker 1: Brian was still here too, So it wasn't because of me, 338 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 1: because Brian. Brian was with me when we were asking that, 339 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 1: So it wasn't because he just had no use for me. Yeah, 340 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: he didn't give Brian an answer either. Yeah, no, h back. 341 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 1: Every team has a little bit different way of doing it, 342 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: but most teams letter every position and then there's variations. 343 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 1: So wide receiver isn't one number. It depends on where 344 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 1: you line up all the way from X Y Z, 345 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 1: you know, Z being the guy that's furthest out on 346 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 1: the formation, but h back in the backfield. From what 347 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: I learned under Parcels is he's this guy that kind 348 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 1: of lines up like on the flank there and and 349 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 1: can either you know, up to the yeah, and he's 350 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,880 Speaker 1: mostly a pass catcher, but he can run the ball. 351 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,160 Speaker 1: You know, he can go in motion and all that stuff. 352 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 1: But Keith Buyers was that a guy that you know, 353 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 1: they pointed at his Okay, he's gonna try to be 354 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:06,160 Speaker 1: an h back. Yeah, it's kind of like a full 355 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,159 Speaker 1: back slash tight end. Yeah, you move them around, he 356 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,679 Speaker 1: could block a little bit maybe. I mean, I think 357 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 1: Uschek is kind of the I mean, and you could 358 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 1: even say he's more just a receiving We were sold 359 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:20,200 Speaker 1: that could be that type of guy. That was that 360 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 1: was you know in theory. I mean, he was a 361 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 1: third round pick too, So it's it's just sound, you know, 362 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 1: him and ASSISI being third round picks and really looking 363 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: face and make or break years. That's a whole other 364 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: part of it. But he can't stay on there, and 365 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 1: that's going to be interesting because there's so many I 366 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 1: don't think they have a lot of high end talent, 367 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 1: but they have a lot of candidates to fill those roles, 368 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 1: skill position roles, and I'm all four like keeping defenses 369 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 1: on their heels. Again, I hate beating, you know, a 370 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 1: dead horse. But we heard last year players on other 371 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 1: teams saying the Patriots are easy to defend. Never heard 372 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 1: that before until last year. You know, I want to 373 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: get out of that. I don't want to be easy 374 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 1: to defend the one you need play. Yeah, and well, 375 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 1: because schemes aren't going to make you hard to different, 376 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,639 Speaker 1: but it can be a little If you have guys 377 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 1: who can do multiple things while they're on the field, 378 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,120 Speaker 1: it just makes it harder for the defense to substitute 379 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,400 Speaker 1: to match up. But what do you mean by I'm sorry? 380 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 1: Go ahead? So when he says that guys that can 381 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,360 Speaker 1: do multiple things, do you think that's why they brought 382 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 1: in someone like time outcomer? Exactly? I do. Yeah, so 383 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: what are the multiple things that he can do? Well, 384 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: no matter whatever the look is on offense, you can 385 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 1: run different things out of it. So you can run 386 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: or a pass, run or pass or different types of running. 387 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 1: But you're not getting down the field with time Montgomery. No, 388 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 1: but you might, so you're easy to differ. Now you've 389 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 1: got Davante Parker, and I think all these things can 390 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 1: help you be a little bit tougher to the fact. 391 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. It's not about the scheme, it's 392 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: about the players. Yeah, well you have if you have 393 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 1: players that have a skill set, that okay. But the 394 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 1: players allow you to do these things, well, that's what 395 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,199 Speaker 1: I'm saying. They need to. They need to improve their 396 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 1: talent to be tougher to defend. But I think you 397 00:19:57,920 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 1: ask me, I think part of that improvement also come 398 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,639 Speaker 1: from these second year free agents getting better, you know, 399 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 1: knowing things, having being able to do things without thinking 400 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 1: as much. Uh. And I don't underestimate the addition of 401 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,440 Speaker 1: Davante Parker. I think he raises the level of that 402 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,160 Speaker 1: receiving corps. I'll see if he does. Yeah. I think 403 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 1: I think you've got a good running back stable. I 404 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 1: think that's really good. I think Strange might might be 405 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 1: an upgrade on your offensive line. I love I love 406 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:33,120 Speaker 1: resigning Trent Brown. Isaiah Win's gonna be injury free this year, 407 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 1: so I'm I'm very bullish on the offense, very bad. 408 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 1: He doesn't take a week off and he comes back 409 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,679 Speaker 1: if he came back, and you're like so optimistic here, 410 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 1: I've always I've been saying this about the offense for 411 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 1: a while. Matt Jones. Okay, I think, okay, well, okay, Fred, 412 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 1: you you missed. Give it to me, you missed, James, 413 00:20:56,200 --> 00:21:00,360 Speaker 1: you missed this. Last Tuesday, someone came in and good, 414 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: thank you, sir. Um. Someone called in and asked about 415 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 1: because obviously you can't keep all these skill players. So 416 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:15,120 Speaker 1: who do you think is going to be the surprise cut? 417 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,400 Speaker 1: And what was the other question? It was surprise cut? 418 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 1: And then dark Horse? Yeah, what are yours? Dark Horse? Um, 419 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 1: well it's time Montgomery does he is? Or he is he? 420 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 1: Like everybody thinks, Okay, he's a lock. I don't know 421 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 1: if he's a lock, but it's a free agent signing. Yeah, 422 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 1: like he should make I don't think he's a dark horse. 423 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: I wouldn't get a lock, but I guess should I 424 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 1: guess dark Horse? Maybe Trey Nick? Yeah I picked Okay, 425 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:48,880 Speaker 1: that's a good one. But so who goes? But that's 426 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 1: the thing, it's a numbers game. I was just gonna say, now, 427 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 1: surprise cut, it's not a cut, but I surprise trade. 428 00:21:55,040 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 1: Still could be Agalore, you know Wett, Yeah, be tough 429 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: with that contract. Jacoby Myers would be my guy. He's 430 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 1: more affordable and I think he has more upside. He's 431 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 1: a better player. Yeah, someone might say I could I 432 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 1: could use him eighty three catches where we're looking for 433 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: help on defense? Yes, you know I think so? Yeah, 434 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,359 Speaker 1: I mean I'm with you. I mean you you certainly 435 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:24,360 Speaker 1: colored it it's hard, very positive on offense. But I'm 436 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,239 Speaker 1: excited to elea see how it plays out because they 437 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: got a lot of pieces. I think Paul, you know, 438 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,120 Speaker 1: was right, and in terms of the talent and ken 439 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 1: this group of guys, so push it. So the talent, 440 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: so they have on paper there's five receivers that I 441 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: don't see going anywhere and Parker, Agalore, Born Myers and 442 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 1: Thornton Ye right now, someone like those are five regular 443 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:50,360 Speaker 1: players that unless you're making a deal to acquire some help, 444 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 1: you know, with an Agalore or with the Myers or 445 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 1: something like that, those five guys are going to make 446 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 1: the team. Yeah. So now if it's Trey Nixon as 447 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 1: the sixth, that's really all you get room for. Then 448 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 1: you wonder where does Time Montgomery fit in? Is he 449 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 1: with Stevenson and Harris Damien Harris? You know, he's like 450 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 1: Yakub Johnson like the position the wherever the slot was 451 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 1: for Yakub, that's where you slot in Time Montgomery. So 452 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: now you have I agree, I totally agree. I think 453 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:23,639 Speaker 1: that makes a lot of sense. So now you go 454 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 1: with with Mike brought up about five minutes ago. So okay, 455 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,879 Speaker 1: you have Hunter Henry and John U. Smith or your 456 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 1: your primary tight ends. Is there spots for Asia or 457 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 1: Dalton Keene? Right one or both? Probably one? Maybe Asiasi stays, 458 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 1: it doesn't look like Dalton Keene's like really ever in 459 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:45,880 Speaker 1: the mix, you know, from a health standpoint, So he's 460 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: never out there for us to find out if he 461 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 1: has any potential because he just hasn't been healthy. And 462 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 1: if if those guys make the team, then in time 463 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 1: Montgomery makes it. Now you start to look down the 464 00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 1: depth chart a little bit. At running back, you have 465 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 1: two rookies, and Pierre Strong and Kevin Harris. They're going 466 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 1: to be with the team in some regard, right, right, 467 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 1: Pierre Strong, you're not going to get to the You're 468 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 1: not gonna get a draft pick that high to your 469 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: practice squad more than likely. Right, he was like a 470 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 1: fourth round pick, right Strong. It's hard to get a 471 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,920 Speaker 1: fourth rounder to practice squad. You're gonna have to keep 472 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:20,400 Speaker 1: Zappy for the same reason. Yeah, because you can't put 473 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 1: him on the practice you're loaded. Yeah, right, so you 474 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:27,640 Speaker 1: got the gunners. But this is my but that's that's 475 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 1: I mean, we already used that. We brought in Parker 476 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:34,639 Speaker 1: and Thornton. Right, those guys aren't going anywhere, right, but 477 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,880 Speaker 1: nobody left when you brought those, you know, barring injuries, 478 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 1: Parker and Thornton are not going to go anywhere. Yeah. Um, 479 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 1: so it becomes a number scheme. Does James White have 480 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: a spot if he's healthy enough right now? Mike and 481 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,440 Speaker 1: I think he might start camp on pup. Yeah, yeah, 482 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 1: even though he's been out there in the spring a 483 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 1: little bit. We'll see if he's fully ready to go. 484 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: This is a lot of ye, it's not going to 485 00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:00,679 Speaker 1: be easy, but don't confuse like the roster decision aren't 486 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:04,120 Speaker 1: easy with they're loaded well, because they're far from loader. 487 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 1: I think they've got a lot of good depth. Good depth. 488 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 1: Now here's my here's my fear. Who's the architect? Okay, 489 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: So I think I think that they want to be multiple. 490 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 1: I think they want to keep defenses on their heels. 491 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: They don't want to, you know, have tells on offense. 492 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,679 Speaker 1: I agree, because they have to trick it all right, 493 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,440 Speaker 1: But I wonder if they get too complicated. Whereas you know, 494 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,360 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be less common. Last year, 495 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 1: I you know, it seemed they were too simplistic, easy 496 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 1: to defend if Matt Patricia's the architect of this thing 497 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: and he's got his rit engineer had on because he 498 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: get too common, here's where it likes. Who's I don't 499 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 1: care about the title coordinator, who's the architect of this offense? Ye? See, 500 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 1: I think you're confusing. And again this is semantics with 501 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 1: me and you you're confusing. They were easy to defend 502 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,400 Speaker 1: last year because of scheme with talent, well, I think 503 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 1: I think they are. I think they had an incredibly 504 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 1: complex scheme and that's the only reason why it worked 505 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 1: to the extent it worked, like how many Jacobe Myers 506 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 1: passes were completed. But I agree, I think the personnel 507 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 1: dictated what they thought they could do on offense last year, 508 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,640 Speaker 1: and now I'm including Matt Jones, a rookie Matt Jones, 509 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 1: and that I don't think they could open up the 510 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 1: full playbook last year, and I think that made them 511 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: easy to defend. But I think that what made him 512 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: easy to defend is they had nobody that could run 513 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 1: a route for more than fifteen yards and make a 514 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:29,959 Speaker 1: play like That's why they're easy to defend. You can 515 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 1: put ten guys within ten yards of the line of 516 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,239 Speaker 1: scrimmage and defend the page. There's no doubt that that's 517 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: why they're easy to defend. There's no doubt that's part 518 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 1: of it. But again, I go back to the signing 519 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,679 Speaker 1: at Davante Parker. They're going to run the guy. They 520 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 1: want to be physical and run the ball, and they 521 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: had nobody to get down the field, and they had 522 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,680 Speaker 1: a rookie quarterback who wasn't overly comfortable throwing it down 523 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 1: the field. Maybe this year, based on what we saw 524 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 1: in the spring, they're planning on throwing it downfield more often, 525 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: because he threw a lot of passes downfield this spring. 526 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 1: It's funny that you say that, because there's a tweet 527 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: circulating right now from Robert Griffin the Third It says 528 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 1: Mac Jones is most likely to win a ring first 529 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 1: of the rookie quarterbacks who played serious time last year. 530 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick and the Patriots are defensive masterminds and will 531 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 1: out coach other teams, and Mac attack will stretch the 532 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 1: field more after last year. Has his confidence like the 533 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:27,680 Speaker 1: respect that it's people just haven't watched the team for 534 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 1: three years. They haven't. Yeah, So that tweet is circulating 535 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 1: people like, do you do you agree. Do you agree 536 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,399 Speaker 1: that MAC will be more confident and they'll stretch the 537 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 1: field more this year? I do that I could agree 538 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,360 Speaker 1: with that. I don't know if that makes you like, yeah, 539 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: I just want to know who. Robert Griffin the third 540 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 1: talk too over the week really random. He tweeted it 541 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 1: like an hour ago, but it's like circulating and it's 542 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 1: being picked up and what did he see? And then 543 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 1: Tucket It's like but it's like, you know, you go 544 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,120 Speaker 1: on these things, and you know there's random stuff you'll 545 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 1: see in an NFL network and they'll have like capsules 546 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:04,680 Speaker 1: of teams, you know, uh, marquee games. You know, the Patriots. 547 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 1: I'm like, what, like, why is that one of their 548 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 1: marquis games? Other people like the Patriots? Well, but you 549 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 1: know who doesn't you know Vegas? You know what the 550 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 1: overunder is eight and a half. I think it's like, 551 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 1: what are they fifty to one to win the super Bowl? 552 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:21,359 Speaker 1: Something like that. I don't know what the super Bowl is, 553 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 1: but they're overunder for wins is eight now. Just just 554 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 1: as a comparison, in nineteen ninety six, they were forty 555 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 1: to one to win the Super Bowl. AFC's pretty good 556 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: right now. Too. Um, I think, you know, at least 557 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,160 Speaker 1: as far as being predictable. I mean, I think getting 558 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,400 Speaker 1: the fullback out that might take some of the predictability 559 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: out of the offense. I mean, I just don't think 560 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: that predictability was the problem. Yeah, I think talent is 561 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: the problem. But I think I think it's But I 562 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 1: think I don't think the last year. But you were 563 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 1: my point, But I'll say that you were because of 564 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 1: your talent. Yeah, and you have the same talent with 565 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 1: Savante Parker. Yeah. No, But I think again, I think 566 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 1: some of these guys that were here last year are 567 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 1: going to be better just because they because they hear 568 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: and learn a little. I think that's what RG three, 569 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 1: I guess, was trying to say, Like, with the coaching 570 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 1: staff that's here, he can use what he has to 571 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 1: out coach. This is my point. Coaching staff has gotten weaker. 572 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: But nationally, everybody just falls and bows at the altar 573 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: of Bill and says everything is great because they have 574 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick. They haven't watched the last three years. Yeah, 575 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 1: I'm convinced of it. Okay, they still think it was 576 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 1: an anomaly. Yeah, like not forcing a punt in two 577 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 1: different games against buffalo, which you like to point out often. 578 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 1: I know it's it's so i can't wait to throw 579 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 1: friends words back. And I'm not disagreeing with you. Doesn't 580 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 1: like Mac Jones doesn't have any faith now that that's 581 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 1: just not fair. I mean honestly that that is, that 582 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 1: is the most unfair drop that we have, and I 583 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 1: will pound it into that. The thing that bumped me 584 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: most about the RG three thing was the defensive. That 585 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 1: the defense. You know what he said, really right, Samara, 586 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 1: he could It's not like I'm saying, I don't think 587 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 1: that creative editing. Uh, I'm I'm worried about the day 588 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: offense the defense. I'm with you on the offense, and 589 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: I know that, like you know, and I get Paul's 590 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 1: point of generally pieces are a lot of the same. 591 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 1: But I also am am firmly with Fred of of 592 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: that I think always gets discounted people making strides, if 593 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 1: they weren't that good last year of their name, I 594 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 1: think that gets discoused. So so let's go let's look 595 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: at this for a second. So and I know that 596 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 1: you guys aren't necessarily saying there, Let's get back to 597 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: Fred's original point of my shows talking about a different offense. Right, 598 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 1: I know, you guys aren't necessarily necessarily saying that. So 599 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 1: let's say they are using a different offense. Well, that 600 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 1: puts all your second year guys back in back in 601 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 1: first year mode because you gotta simply, you know, you 602 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 1: gotta learn, but you gotta learn something different. Right, Well, 603 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 1: I don't know the way. I mean, the way everybody's 604 00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:54,479 Speaker 1: talking about it is not like this is the way 605 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 1: we're talking about offense is proof that's what they say. Well, 606 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 1: then there you go. So that's why I think it's 607 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 1: more for the coaches because I think if there's one 608 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 1: thing that I would strongly put in Max's favor is 609 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 1: his aptitude to play the position. Yeah, I didn't see 610 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: anything last year other than you know, the occasional struggles 611 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 1: of recognizing pressure. I didn't see things that he looked 612 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: mentally overwhelmed. Ever. Yeah, last year. But I think the 613 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: thing I'm not with the appallon is just that they 614 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 1: have to change it because the coaches don't know what 615 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: they're doing. Like, do you think that if don't know 616 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 1: what they're doing is strong? Well, I would with that offense. 617 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: But I'm saying if if McDaniels left and Patricia has 618 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 1: been I'm not saying in this offense, but has been 619 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 1: around this offense long enough. Would you feel more comfortable 620 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 1: if they were just saying, well, Patricia's just going to 621 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 1: take over Josh McDaniel's offense and implement Josh McDaniels offense 622 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 1: if he knew the offense. If you, I mean knowing 623 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 1: what you know now based on I don't know, I 624 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,960 Speaker 1: don't know what I wouldn't feel. I wouldn't feel comfortable 625 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: with Patricia and Judge under any circumstances the way that 626 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,120 Speaker 1: they came in. I don't feel comfortable with them the 627 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 1: new offense. I don't feel comfortable with them running the 628 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 1: old offense. Did you like the old offense? Yes, loved it. 629 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 1: But I think that their offense from say, two thousand 630 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: and four ish to twenty eighteen was as productive consistently 631 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: as any offense. And it was. But but do you 632 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 1: think because of the talent, Well that's well, yeah, that 633 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 1: offense it had its base fundament, great point, but it 634 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 1: was dictated by its Personnelity's great. It's a great point 635 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 1: that Tamaro makes because I personally thought the offense looked 636 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:38,400 Speaker 1: pretty similar with Castle and with Garoppolo. Those are really 637 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:40,440 Speaker 1: the only two guys that played any length of time 638 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 1: in the offense other than Brady, because you know, Brissette 639 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 1: played like a game that was totally different. Yeah, but 640 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: that like that that doesn't count. No, um, I thought. 641 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:55,160 Speaker 1: I think the offense sort of proved that it can be. 642 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 1: It's a really effective system the way that they play offense. Now, 643 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 1: Tamara's point, that might be because of the talent. Yeah, 644 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 1: you know, maybe the offense is nothing special, and you know, 645 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 1: the talent made it look better than it was. I 646 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 1: don't know, maybe maybe that is right. Look over the years, 647 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:15,360 Speaker 1: you know, they they went through different phases with different personnel. Yes, 648 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 1: and too tight end, too tighten, you know, like Hernandez, 649 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 1: we saw things we hadn't seen before. Randy Moss comes in. 650 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 1: We saw things we hadn't seen before. Yeah, you're right, 651 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 1: you know absolutely. I wonder what they did last year. 652 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 1: I'd love to just hear, like, like, you got a 653 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 1: rookie quarterback coming in, You've got a bunch of new 654 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 1: offensive pieces. What was the philosophy last year? You w 655 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 1: talking about simplifying Now, I mean, did we simplify for 656 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 1: Cam Newton. Did we simplify for Mac Jones as a rookie? 657 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 1: You know? Like like those are some of my questions 658 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 1: of why now you know? And I know we're talking 659 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 1: about all the different points of it, but shouldn't like 660 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 1: this kind of philosophical we're making it easier than last year. 661 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 1: Like that just seems to make more sense to me. 662 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 1: What did they do last year? Did they did? They 663 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 1: just got to take the Brady offense and say not 664 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 1: here anymore? This is Josh. Oh. I know, I know 665 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 1: we're all gonna blame Josh for everything now Josh McDaniel's fault. 666 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: But but but realistically, what you know, what was Josh's philosophy? 667 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:10,839 Speaker 1: And how do you how do you get transit? Because 668 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 1: he had to know that that Cam Newton and Mac 669 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:14,359 Speaker 1: Jones weren't going to walk in here and pick up everything. 670 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 1: I'm sure he took steps to you know, but did 671 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:18,439 Speaker 1: not go far enough. Like is that what they're trying 672 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 1: to tell us now? Um, there should have been changes 673 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 1: last year, and I don't feel like we really noticed 674 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:25,799 Speaker 1: any changes last year. It felt like the same offense. 675 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 1: I feel like it's going to seem like the same officer. 676 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 1: But I just want to know if they are changing things, 677 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 1: who is the architect who's making those decisions, who's making 678 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:37,360 Speaker 1: the decision to change it? Yeah, Bill, and what is 679 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: and what the changes are? What they're changing it too? Yeah, 680 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,279 Speaker 1: the architect of what they're changing it too. Yeah, based 681 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 1: on what they were talking about this morning, I think 682 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 1: they're based on en off of current in Phil Perry 683 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:50,960 Speaker 1: the architect with chef Shan No. I know, but like 684 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,960 Speaker 1: that that Shannahan office. So Bill is saying we're taking 685 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:57,480 Speaker 1: their office. If this is true, we're taking their offense 686 00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:00,799 Speaker 1: and we're adopting its principles. And I'm not necessarily saying 687 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 1: that's that's right, but they are changing. I think they 688 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,440 Speaker 1: are changing the offense. I think that I've read that 689 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 1: enough with Reese, with Phil Perry, with time. I've read 690 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 1: enough illusions in Kendrick Bourne when he talked to Mike 691 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 1: Reece about some of the terminology, and I think they're 692 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: you don't just change the names of place, right, Like, 693 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 1: that's not really worth it to change all your terminology 694 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 1: to run the same play. That doesn't make sense. So 695 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 1: if you're changing terminology and streamlining things, you're making some changes. Now. 696 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's a wholesale Like, like I said, 697 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 1: take the whole offense that you knew last year, throw 698 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 1: that all away. We're gonna use this whole different offense. 699 00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 1: I don't know that that's just what doesn't pass the 700 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,319 Speaker 1: smell test. To me, it doesn't pass the smell test. 701 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 1: Bill has been aware of the Shanahan wide zone, that 702 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 1: whole system forever. Why right now would he be like, 703 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 1: let's just do what they're doing. Well, Like, it just 704 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:52,080 Speaker 1: seems like not anything he would ever do, like waving 705 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:54,799 Speaker 1: the white flag, Like we just should do what they 706 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,280 Speaker 1: do because you don't have guys that you feel comfortable 707 00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 1: running the offense and the way it was, and maybe 708 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,440 Speaker 1: these guys are more familiar with that stuff. It's more 709 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 1: in some way that sound like something he would do. 710 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 1: Would he be like, no, we're gonna keep doing what 711 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 1: I would say, yes and no, I would say it 712 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 1: changing things to you know, to figure out some different 713 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 1: way of doing something. Definitely sounds a lot like Bill, 714 00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 1: would you And this is a phrase that they use 715 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:24,720 Speaker 1: this morning generally, you know, like Bill and the Patriots 716 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:26,799 Speaker 1: have always been one of those teams when teams are 717 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: doing X, they're going to do why, you know, teams 718 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,359 Speaker 1: are starting to go lighter in the box. We're gonna 719 00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:34,320 Speaker 1: go two tight ends and pound the ball, you know, 720 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:38,920 Speaker 1: stuff like that. This is more of teams are zagging, 721 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 1: so we're gonna zag too. They're changing the offense more 722 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 1: to what a lot of other teams in the league 723 00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:45,919 Speaker 1: are having a lot of success giving in. They're sort 724 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 1: of giving in to what works and it I don't Again, 725 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 1: I am not the All twenty two guy. I am 726 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:55,359 Speaker 1: not the expert on these offenses. But listening to Ted 727 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,920 Speaker 1: Johnson talk about this, a former NFL linebacker who probably 728 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 1: knows you know, what comes, what goes into various systems, 729 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 1: talks about that offense. So it's very easy to run, 730 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:09,880 Speaker 1: it's very easy to operate the Shanahan On the Shanahan offense, 731 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:16,319 Speaker 1: he called it dummy proof for quarterbacks. Yeah, well we'll see. 732 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 1: I mean, to me, that's not taking advantage of Mac Jones' 733 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 1: best trait, which is his mind, right, And why would 734 00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 1: you want to dummy proof something for somebody like that? Well, 735 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 1: I also would say, why would you want to do 736 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:31,279 Speaker 1: that in year two when you would be better, Like 737 00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 1: you'd have that offense and you'd have an offense of 738 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 1: a bunch of guys building right now you're starting back 739 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 1: at square one. Yeah, so I don't know, eight five 740 00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 1: five Pats five hundred is the eighth ticket hutline eight 741 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 1: five five Pats five hundred. Web radio at Patriots dot 742 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 1: com is the email address, and less you're allowing Mac 743 00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:52,919 Speaker 1: Jones to do what he wants to do and maybe 744 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,319 Speaker 1: just running sort of like Jones is the architect, right, 745 00:37:56,480 --> 00:38:00,239 Speaker 1: Maybe it's well, it would go to like Alabama off 746 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:02,200 Speaker 1: which is what we saw in the spring with with 747 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:05,800 Speaker 1: Mac Jones was doing everything. So that was on the 748 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:10,120 Speaker 1: end of Robert Griffin's tweet, he says roll tide levels 749 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,799 Speaker 1: of offense for Mac Jones. Well, yeah, well that he's 750 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:18,920 Speaker 1: talking about throwing stretching the field would be touchdown passes 751 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:21,959 Speaker 1: to you know, guys that are right wide open playing 752 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 1: against Sonny's Kyle Washalls. I'll say, I really think that 753 00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:30,960 Speaker 1: the RPO thing more your your side of the street 754 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 1: of not not like trying to scheme guys open. It's 755 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 1: you know, it's about letting the quarterback make the read, 756 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:38,200 Speaker 1: put them in a no win situation, and then that's 757 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,800 Speaker 1: who the ball goes to. It's you know, not as reliant, 758 00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 1: you know, as old guys. Got to win right off 759 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 1: the line, and we need, you know, explosive weapons. We 760 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:48,399 Speaker 1: need to win with scheme and that RPOs talent, scheme, 761 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 1: more scheme. All right, eight five, five past five hundred. 762 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:55,560 Speaker 1: Let's get to the phones. They're stacking up Melvin's and Tennessee. 763 00:38:55,640 --> 00:39:01,359 Speaker 1: What's up? Hey, Hey, I got no question, Paul. I'm 764 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 1: sure you'll be able to big this up. But when 765 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:09,920 Speaker 1: Deon Sanders went from the forty nine to the Cowboys exactly, like, 766 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 1: how did that happen? And why did the forty nine 767 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:17,880 Speaker 1: ers allowed him to get to that team? I think 768 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 1: it was a free agent. How money issued could have 769 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:21,640 Speaker 1: a young guy because I think both of those teams 770 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:24,080 Speaker 1: were championship caliber. I think at that time, Wow, I 771 00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:26,440 Speaker 1: think it was free I mean, I don't have that 772 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:27,960 Speaker 1: answer off the top of my head, but I think 773 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,680 Speaker 1: it was just free agency. I was early days of 774 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 1: free agency. Yeah, right, as far as I remember, the 775 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,399 Speaker 1: early to mid nineties, that's around the time that free 776 00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:40,640 Speaker 1: agency kicked in. Yep. Yeah, But I don't I mean, Melvin, 777 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:42,800 Speaker 1: I don't want to pretend I don't have the answer 778 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:44,160 Speaker 1: for you off the top of my head, I don't know, 779 00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:48,279 Speaker 1: I got you. And when, well, when he did make 780 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,959 Speaker 1: that trade, was he as good as when or better 781 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 1: when Rivers had made his way to New England? Like 782 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 1: who was better doing that time? Yeah? When when Dion 783 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:00,400 Speaker 1: was moving back and forth, he was at higher level 784 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 1: because remember he also returned kicks and we but we 785 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:04,560 Speaker 1: got Revas two at the end. I mean, Rivers was 786 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:06,320 Speaker 1: really good in fourteen, but we got him at the 787 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,640 Speaker 1: end of his career. Oh yeah, we did. Sanders was 788 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:12,759 Speaker 1: still in his prime. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he like changed 789 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 1: the dynamic of that NFC when he was popping around 790 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 1: to Dallas and the San Francisco. I mean it was 791 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 1: like and whatever he was on one yeah, yeah, yeah, 792 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 1: he was all right, thanks Melvin. Yeah, I mean Dion 793 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 1: could he could probably have played any position. He was like, 794 00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 1: you know, Bo Jackson type athlete, you know, whereas Revis 795 00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:38,920 Speaker 1: is a cornerback, he's in the ultimate cornerback. Yeah, you know, 796 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,880 Speaker 1: And but that's all he did. And plus it was like, 797 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:45,040 Speaker 1: I mean, not to downplay Revis is off the field 798 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 1: kind of personality, but I mean Dion Sanders is like, 799 00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:51,960 Speaker 1: it's you know, yeah, what player could remake a whole 800 00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 1: defense just by signing him. I mean, he's one of 801 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:58,359 Speaker 1: a handful that that did it. He was amazing, amazing. Uh, 802 00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:02,279 Speaker 1: spe Is and Fresno, what's up to speak, Paul? I 803 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 1: stole your line about you know that you say have 804 00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,920 Speaker 1: a year about thanksgiving him flip flops yesterday and it 805 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 1: got some smiles from the families.

Like I'm looking 812 00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,680 Speaker 1: at Dion's like career stats, like he went ninety you know, 813 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:43,279 Speaker 1: he went to ninety four to San Francisco, ninety five 814 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 1: to Dallas like that was you know, he played until 815 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,520 Speaker 1: two thousand, so he was right in his prime when 816 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 1: he was going back and forth from the Niners. He 817 00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:53,080 Speaker 1: only spent one year with the Niners and they won, 818 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 1: They won it all, and then he went to Dallas 819 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,359 Speaker 1: for the next few years they wanted all the first 820 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 1: year that he was in Dallas, that was the year 821 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:03,400 Speaker 1: I remember most of that was such a heated rivalry 822 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:05,800 Speaker 1: and he was just the difference. It was like whatever 823 00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:07,720 Speaker 1: team he picked to go to, oh he actually it's played. 824 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 1: It's funny. He missed three full seasons. He played with 825 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,759 Speaker 1: Washington in two thousand, one of the original dream teams 826 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:17,360 Speaker 1: Fred rimmer Um, and then he was out of football 827 00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,279 Speaker 1: and oh one, two and three, and then played with 828 00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:23,000 Speaker 1: Baltimore and four and five. I forgot about you, forget 829 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:30,400 Speaker 1: all about remember five interceptions in those seasons. Hijack your 830 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 1: call here nine. Obviously I could listen to you guys 831 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:39,840 Speaker 1: all day, but I have Mac on the mind, like 832 00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:43,879 Speaker 1: because we're talking about him earlier, just hoping he's he's 833 00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:46,080 Speaker 1: the guy. Like now we see that this year that 834 00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:49,560 Speaker 1: he's worth the draft status. He's a franchise quarterback. And 835 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 1: it got me thinking, let's just say, because I don't 836 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:55,000 Speaker 1: think this is parfench, let's just say he ends up 837 00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 1: being below average this year and we're screwed. I'm wondering 838 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:01,880 Speaker 1: what would you need to get from other guys to 839 00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,640 Speaker 1: still feel optimistic about the future, Like would it be 840 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:08,919 Speaker 1: enough if bar more strange this about other rookie shows 841 00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 1: you their special movie, pro Bowl caliber, would that make 842 00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:13,560 Speaker 1: up for what the future could be if Mac ends 843 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:15,160 Speaker 1: up laying an egg? Well, I mean, I don't think 844 00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:16,759 Speaker 1: there's anything that made me feel good if he was. 845 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:20,600 Speaker 1: I agree, you know, like, like you said, all those 846 00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:23,000 Speaker 1: things could happen, But the main thing on your mind 847 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:24,160 Speaker 1: is what are we going to do a quarter? You 848 00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 1: can't win it allay? Is this gonna is this an 849 00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 1: an anomaly? Will he get better in year three? Or 850 00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 1: do we need to start looking again? That's gonna be 851 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 1: on everyone's mind. Yeah, exactly, exactly, And I was I 852 00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:38,839 Speaker 1: was thinking if you reverse the questions, like if Mac 853 00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:41,759 Speaker 1: looks great, what would have to go wrong in other 854 00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:45,000 Speaker 1: players development to negate your optimism. I'm like, I struggle 855 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:49,040 Speaker 1: because I think I almost feel like if if as 856 00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:51,440 Speaker 1: Mac goes, still goes to the future, Like, yeah, if 857 00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 1: Mac is great and the team isn't great around him, 858 00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:55,880 Speaker 1: I think I'd feel a lot better than the other 859 00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:59,160 Speaker 1: way around. Yeah, especially if it's if if Ma's great 860 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 1: and the offense is good and it's the defense that 861 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:04,640 Speaker 1: let you down, Okay, we'll fix the defense. Yeah, you know. 862 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:07,840 Speaker 1: But if it's the other, we'll get him some pieces 863 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,440 Speaker 1: around him on offense to make him He can obviously 864 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 1: do it with average talent. If we can get him 865 00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 1: better than average talent, we got something there. Yeah, that's 866 00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:16,960 Speaker 1: why I would look at him. If he had a 867 00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:19,680 Speaker 1: really good year and they would just average as a team, 868 00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 1: I would I would look at that as a extremely 869 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:24,719 Speaker 1: successful sea And that's I don't know if I don't 870 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:26,800 Speaker 1: know if it's so much as a counter argument to 871 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:31,520 Speaker 1: Mike's concern, like vocalizing on the defense, but the way 872 00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:33,960 Speaker 1: that Fred just put it now is perfect. Like if 873 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 1: Mac is really good and the offense is okay and 874 00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:39,480 Speaker 1: the problem is the defense, that's the year I want 875 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 1: to live with, rather than a year where the offense 876 00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:48,120 Speaker 1: is showing and maybe revealing max fundamental flaws. Yeah, because yeah, 877 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:49,960 Speaker 1: I mean you think about it. You know. We always say, oh, 878 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:53,720 Speaker 1: you know, cornerbacks on an island, they are when they're playing. 879 00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:55,960 Speaker 1: But there's a lot of cornerbacks on the team. You 880 00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:58,880 Speaker 1: only have one quarterback, you know, and if that guy's 881 00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:01,600 Speaker 1: not playing well, you got problems. You need to find 882 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:05,640 Speaker 1: another guy. And it's not that easy, no, And it 883 00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:08,279 Speaker 1: feels like you guys are talking about ten or ten 884 00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 1: and eleven when you had I mean, obviously that's Brady 885 00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:13,680 Speaker 1: and but you didn't really have a defense. And they 886 00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:16,000 Speaker 1: still made it to the super Bowl on the strength 887 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:18,040 Speaker 1: of Tom Brady and and how good the offense was. 888 00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:21,160 Speaker 1: But I you know, it's just how far off is 889 00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 1: the defense. I just I don't see the playmakers seas 890 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 1: to emerge and make plays, because right now it feels 891 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:30,320 Speaker 1: like that's what the season's going to be. To me, 892 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:33,279 Speaker 1: it's it's an offensive minded league now, which is true. 893 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:34,959 Speaker 1: And that's and that's why I agree with you guys, 894 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 1: like you need the quarterback, you need to have that 895 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:39,719 Speaker 1: piece of it. But right and when I need to 896 00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:42,600 Speaker 1: make stops. And when I when I say that Mac 897 00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:45,520 Speaker 1: played great, I don't mean like they lost every game 898 00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:48,360 Speaker 1: forty two to thirty eight and you know they scored 899 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:50,960 Speaker 1: seventeen in the fourth quarter like that to me, like 900 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:53,800 Speaker 1: you know it when you see it, you know, like 901 00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:56,640 Speaker 1: Mac played really well. Mac. You know, they went toe 902 00:45:56,719 --> 00:45:59,359 Speaker 1: to toe and the other team had the ball last 903 00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 1: ye know, that's playing great and losing. You know, he's 904 00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:05,279 Speaker 1: not losing the games, you know, I mean, he's not 905 00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:07,480 Speaker 1: he's not getting shout out in the first half the 906 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:09,279 Speaker 1: way he did down the stretch of all the games 907 00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:12,000 Speaker 1: last year, and when he's got a chance to make 908 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:13,880 Speaker 1: something happen, Like there was a lot, a lot of 909 00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 1: that sort of happened. Like I even saw something over 910 00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:19,520 Speaker 1: the weekend on Twitter, you know, lost in the debacle 911 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:23,160 Speaker 1: that was the playoff loss in Buffalo was Mac had 912 00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 1: had a lot of really good players. I'm like, really, really, 913 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 1: like really that this is what this is what we're doing, 914 00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 1: Like and they and they show him scrambling and it 915 00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:31,840 Speaker 1: was a great play, Like he scrambled out of the 916 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:34,160 Speaker 1: pocket on the first drive and made a great third 917 00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:37,120 Speaker 1: down completion and route is putting no points on the 918 00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:38,719 Speaker 1: board in the first three quarters of the game. Like 919 00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:41,640 Speaker 1: you can't ignore that. You can't tell me he played 920 00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:44,680 Speaker 1: great that game. Yeah, Like, how many people have you heard? 921 00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:48,239 Speaker 1: Mac wasn't the problem that night. He wasn't the with 922 00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:51,400 Speaker 1: a capital tea problem, but he was a problem the 923 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:54,000 Speaker 1: offense didn't score and that's his job. Yeah, and that 924 00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:58,799 Speaker 1: play that was a terrible but with a terrible fast 925 00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,279 Speaker 1: protection he gets lushed out of the pocket, Like that's 926 00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:02,960 Speaker 1: never how the play is supposed to look, I know, 927 00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:05,279 Speaker 1: but I'll give him for doing stuff that is not 928 00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:09,320 Speaker 1: necessarily considered. That's not his strength. And he made he 929 00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:11,279 Speaker 1: did make a couple of really nice plays on that 930 00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:14,799 Speaker 1: first drive, but I'm sorry. Bottom line is, you're well 931 00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:16,839 Speaker 1: into the second half of that game before you even 932 00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 1: put any points on the board. I can't tell you 933 00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:23,800 Speaker 1: you weren't the problem. Just like Indianapolis, you know, like 934 00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 1: the first Buffalo game, I would say at least they 935 00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:30,719 Speaker 1: sort of counterpunched. They got they got behind, but they 936 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:34,400 Speaker 1: kept counterpunching and kept making Buffalo answer. They kept getting 937 00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:37,480 Speaker 1: within a score and forcing Buffalo to regain the two 938 00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:41,520 Speaker 1: score lead. The you know, the Colts game, the Dolphins 939 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:44,440 Speaker 1: game down there, the Buffalo playoff game. It was the 940 00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:46,239 Speaker 1: other team got a three score lead and that was game. 941 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 1: You know, like that was it. You know, a couple 942 00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:50,879 Speaker 1: some window dressing scores at the end made it look 943 00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:54,440 Speaker 1: closer than it was, but it really wasn't. Let's go 944 00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:59,440 Speaker 1: to Rashad in Baltimore. What's uphad? They what's up with 945 00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 1: up um? First, I definitely gotta agree with you call. 946 00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:07,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, I don't you know, the defense 947 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,440 Speaker 1: was the issue, but it was times where you know, 948 00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:15,520 Speaker 1: the like the offense wasn't putting up points like in general, right, 949 00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:18,600 Speaker 1: and that that that leads me to one of my things. 950 00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:22,840 Speaker 1: Because Mac was a rookie last year. So it's like 951 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:25,080 Speaker 1: to me, like I don't really want to give him 952 00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:28,799 Speaker 1: that many excuses this year. So like if if if 953 00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:31,520 Speaker 1: I can see three things for him this year, at 954 00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:35,600 Speaker 1: least one of them three at least thirty touchdowns, four 955 00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:38,960 Speaker 1: thousand passing yards, or he can have a game winning 956 00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:42,839 Speaker 1: come back like like I mean maybe like the Texans game, 957 00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:46,000 Speaker 1: but not something like like like a I don't know, 958 00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:48,520 Speaker 1: like a real comeback against like like a quality team, 959 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 1: because it was like games you know, like and you 960 00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:54,480 Speaker 1: just said last season, once we went down ten, in 961 00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:58,080 Speaker 1: my mind it was open because I didn't really think 962 00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:01,880 Speaker 1: we could get a stop score gets stopped the score. 963 00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:05,480 Speaker 1: It was it was rare that I don't even at 964 00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:09,160 Speaker 1: all I agree, I think in those games and I 965 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:12,640 Speaker 1: don't hold me I might miss one, but I don't 966 00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:16,120 Speaker 1: believe the Patriots ever had the ball down a score 967 00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:18,920 Speaker 1: in any of those games with a chance. Yeah. In 968 00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:21,319 Speaker 1: other words, like we have the ball here it is Mac. 969 00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:24,320 Speaker 1: I don't think Mac ever got that opportunity in those games, 970 00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:27,600 Speaker 1: not the Tampa game. We didn't have that chance. I'm 971 00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 1: talking about down the stretch when they didn't do any points. 972 00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 1: I don't have any problem with the way he played 973 00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:33,360 Speaker 1: against Tampa. I thought he played well that night against 974 00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:35,920 Speaker 1: against the Bucks. I'm talking about getting shot out for 975 00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:38,239 Speaker 1: you know, two and a half quarters and then making 976 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:40,719 Speaker 1: a furious rally when the game is over, right, Like 977 00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:43,759 Speaker 1: that's plastic yards, that's like Gardner Minshew's stats, and it's 978 00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:45,799 Speaker 1: all in. It's in in comparison to the games where 979 00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:48,359 Speaker 1: they just rolled and it was never even in question, right, 980 00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:52,759 Speaker 1: Like it just looks worse, you know, like even the 981 00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 1: Dallas game, he throws the pick six, he comes back 982 00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:56,960 Speaker 1: and throws the bamb to Bourne like early in the year, 983 00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:58,960 Speaker 1: and then they end up losing in overtime. You know, 984 00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:01,440 Speaker 1: they had opportunities. But like, I'd have no problems with 985 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:05,160 Speaker 1: his specific performance and those those games early, the Dallas 986 00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:07,920 Speaker 1: and Tampa games, I thought he played well. He did 987 00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:10,560 Speaker 1: well enough to win those games, you know, as a rookie, 988 00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:13,359 Speaker 1: you know, playing in this what fourth and sixth game? 989 00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:16,720 Speaker 1: Maybe right, But down the stretch I thought he tailed 990 00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:21,359 Speaker 1: off all right, thanks to go ahead, just one more thing, 991 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:24,280 Speaker 1: uh if um, what's the name? Just just a standout 992 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:26,760 Speaker 1: somebody who can take the next step on the defense. 993 00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:30,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Kyle Dugger. Like, if we're looking somebody 994 00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:32,360 Speaker 1: take the next step, may be an All Pro or 995 00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:35,600 Speaker 1: something like that, that's the guy I'm looking to. Yeah, 996 00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:38,759 Speaker 1: that's a good one. Yeah, I hope. So I just wonder. 997 00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:40,560 Speaker 1: I wonder what it looks like and how much of 998 00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:43,040 Speaker 1: an impact that has, because that will be exciting and 999 00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:46,279 Speaker 1: certainly I know he's getting a lot of I guess 1000 00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:48,319 Speaker 1: press with some of people wrote these things. Who's going 1001 00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:51,120 Speaker 1: to be the breakout he gets? Well, we're also reading that, 1002 00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,759 Speaker 1: you know, not just the Patriots but league why that 1003 00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:57,560 Speaker 1: type of player at that position is becoming more and 1004 00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:01,960 Speaker 1: more important in today's n FELL. You know, that versatile 1005 00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:06,000 Speaker 1: safety that can play down the box, do a little coverage, versatile, 1006 00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:09,160 Speaker 1: a little bit bigger, stronger, you know, like, what do 1007 00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:11,640 Speaker 1: you like, how can he help you against Josh Allen? 1008 00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:13,239 Speaker 1: I mean, this is just a point for debate, but 1009 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:16,040 Speaker 1: that's you know, like we talk about the Buffalo games 1010 00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:18,200 Speaker 1: where they didn't really have any answers, and you know, 1011 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:20,960 Speaker 1: what are the answers to that, like how finally brought 1012 00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:23,040 Speaker 1: that up? I had? That was one of my astpfws 1013 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:24,640 Speaker 1: this week, one of the one of the mail bags. 1014 00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:26,200 Speaker 1: And you know, it's like what do they need to 1015 00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:30,800 Speaker 1: do to de throw in Buffalo? And it's like, you know, 1016 00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:32,800 Speaker 1: obviously you get the front seven's got to do a 1017 00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:36,800 Speaker 1: better job of containing Josh Allen. You know, okay, great, 1018 00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:40,160 Speaker 1: no one leaves this room until we figure that out. 1019 00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:43,520 Speaker 1: You know, it's like a Snicker's commercial, like what do 1020 00:51:43,600 --> 00:51:45,880 Speaker 1: you do? Like how do you? How do you do that? 1021 00:51:45,960 --> 00:51:49,520 Speaker 1: And it's not a problem that's unique to the Patriots. 1022 00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:51,839 Speaker 1: The league is trying to figure out how to deal 1023 00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:55,040 Speaker 1: with some of those quarterbacks. Um and you know as 1024 00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:58,520 Speaker 1: opposed to some of those quarterbacks. You caught him on 1025 00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:01,400 Speaker 1: a bad day, you know, which can happen everybody. Maholmes 1026 00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:03,920 Speaker 1: has bad days, just like Josh Allen has bad days. 1027 00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:05,960 Speaker 1: You know, they lost a Jacksonville right you know, and 1028 00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:08,200 Speaker 1: they couldn't even score a touchdown. Brady had a bad 1029 00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:11,240 Speaker 1: day against us. You know that the Patriots scored fifty 1030 00:52:11,280 --> 00:52:14,080 Speaker 1: against Jacksonville Colt School. I mean the Bill scored six. 1031 00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:17,560 Speaker 1: You know, so you can have a bad day against anybody. 1032 00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:19,560 Speaker 1: But what do you do if he didn't have a 1033 00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:22,920 Speaker 1: bad day? How do I don't know. I don't know exactly. 1034 00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:25,880 Speaker 1: Do your point, Mike, if you want to play extra safeties, 1035 00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 1: how does that help you contain Josh Allen? I'm not 1036 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:34,120 Speaker 1: sure it does. Like what's the tangible Kyle Dugger breakout year? 1037 00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:36,759 Speaker 1: What does that mean for the Patriots defense? That they 1038 00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:40,040 Speaker 1: were excellent in the middle of the field. I just 1039 00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:42,359 Speaker 1: I and I do think you're going to see those 1040 00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:45,239 Speaker 1: guys like Peppers and maybe Dugger, maybe Phillips, you know, 1041 00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:48,400 Speaker 1: just serving as hybrid linebackers. But I don't know. Again, 1042 00:52:48,640 --> 00:52:50,880 Speaker 1: it's Mike's point. I don't know what that does exactly. 1043 00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:53,919 Speaker 1: I think just to me, we've talked about it before. 1044 00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:57,640 Speaker 1: Speed on defense, but it's not it's speed from all 1045 00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:00,799 Speaker 1: areas of the defense, you know, Because that's the problem 1046 00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:03,560 Speaker 1: with Josh Allen is the play can come from anywhere, 1047 00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:07,759 Speaker 1: you know, and you gotta be ready for him to run. 1048 00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 1: You've got to be ready for him to pass, you know, 1049 00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:14,279 Speaker 1: And that means speed, you know. I mean, I'm trying 1050 00:53:14,280 --> 00:53:17,600 Speaker 1: to think of high impact, strong safeties over the years, 1051 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:20,839 Speaker 1: and I mean Rodney Harrison just automatically kind of comes 1052 00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:23,080 Speaker 1: to mind of the impact that he was able to 1053 00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:25,400 Speaker 1: have on you know, every game pretty much. But he 1054 00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:29,319 Speaker 1: was so versatile, had such a physical presence to his game. 1055 00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:32,040 Speaker 1: I just don't know if if guys can still make 1056 00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:34,120 Speaker 1: that same kind of impact, especially when they're going to 1057 00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:37,279 Speaker 1: be playing multiple strong safeties, Like you know, how much 1058 00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:40,439 Speaker 1: is Peppers and Phillips. Is that going to eat into 1059 00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:42,520 Speaker 1: what Dougger's doing. I mean, he could certainly still be 1060 00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:44,719 Speaker 1: a very valuable player playing a variety of roles, but 1061 00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:47,480 Speaker 1: I just you know, couldn't Would an Ed Reid be 1062 00:53:47,600 --> 00:53:50,040 Speaker 1: more valuable than a Rodney Harrison? I know, you know, 1063 00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:51,960 Speaker 1: it's it's kind of apples oranges, But you know, in 1064 00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:54,400 Speaker 1: terms of what Ed Reid could do for a defense, 1065 00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:56,400 Speaker 1: in terms of the back end, in terms of pass coverage, 1066 00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:58,719 Speaker 1: like you know, is that what you would rather have 1067 00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:00,799 Speaker 1: right now? In this lead where you have a guy 1068 00:54:00,840 --> 00:54:03,160 Speaker 1: at the back end with range that can say, all right, 1069 00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:04,960 Speaker 1: they might get us with the underneath stuff, but we 1070 00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:06,200 Speaker 1: got a guy in the back end of the summer. 1071 00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:08,360 Speaker 1: But you have a guy as good as Ed Reid, 1072 00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:12,000 Speaker 1: He'll help any defense, right you know? Oh yeah, But 1073 00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:14,480 Speaker 1: then like all right, then counter that with we've got 1074 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:16,680 Speaker 1: Rodney Harrison, that we got the best in the in 1075 00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:19,279 Speaker 1: the box safety for the today's game. Whatever that means. 1076 00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:21,600 Speaker 1: You know, what would you rather have right now? And 1077 00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:23,920 Speaker 1: I kind of feel like I would lean towards the 1078 00:54:24,040 --> 00:54:27,160 Speaker 1: back end guy, the mccordy maybe in his prime ish 1079 00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:29,759 Speaker 1: kind of guy, you know, rather than Hey, we got 1080 00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:31,920 Speaker 1: a few great strong safeties who kind of lock up 1081 00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:35,080 Speaker 1: their other team's tight ends. But it's like Pausa's, it's 1082 00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:37,840 Speaker 1: the downfield passing game that the big plays that that 1083 00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:40,600 Speaker 1: really do so much of the damage. Now, I don't know, 1084 00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:42,800 Speaker 1: we'll see what it looks like for Doug Todd's in 1085 00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:47,320 Speaker 1: North Carolina. Hate Todd. Hey, my son really wanted to 1086 00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:52,560 Speaker 1: go to five guys and hard to say no drug guys, Samara, 1087 00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:56,200 Speaker 1: But a word of warning, get your guys. If you 1088 00:54:56,280 --> 00:54:58,480 Speaker 1: get that summer flu, oh, it'll put you on your 1089 00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:01,239 Speaker 1: butt there you might be with, Yeah, I see what's 1090 00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:04,080 Speaker 1: going through this the DJ. I finally figured out what 1091 00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:08,160 Speaker 1: bothers me about shim on that other channel. Who is 1092 00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:12,480 Speaker 1: who this person is? Shime? Shime Like, I don't mean 1093 00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:14,960 Speaker 1: I mean no disrespect. I don't know who we're even 1094 00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:18,560 Speaker 1: talking about Matt. Matt knows he's a guy. Is he is? 1095 00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:22,919 Speaker 1: He Andy's news uh sidekick. He's not only like he's 1096 00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:25,800 Speaker 1: not like on air, No, but they do a podcast together. 1097 00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:28,320 Speaker 1: He's on the podcast and he does a podcast with Fitzy. 1098 00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:30,560 Speaker 1: That's the podcast that I don't know it was with 1099 00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:32,320 Speaker 1: Andy and fitz. No, he used to do it with 1100 00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:34,440 Speaker 1: that other guy, Sean Connery. What he used to do 1101 00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:37,680 Speaker 1: it with, Hanim Hannibal Hannibal. Yes, I'm Hannibal left. Yeah, 1102 00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:43,239 Speaker 1: and now he does it with Fitzy kind of. Oh so, 1103 00:55:43,320 --> 00:55:47,680 Speaker 1: then who's Shime? I'm back to shine mattz. Shime is 1104 00:55:47,719 --> 00:55:49,320 Speaker 1: the producer that they let talk on the air and 1105 00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:52,000 Speaker 1: occasionally do podcast with. He's a producer for which show 1106 00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:55,439 Speaker 1: he was Dale's producer. I don't know what he does Dale. 1107 00:55:56,480 --> 00:56:00,399 Speaker 1: That was like forty years ago. I guess. I guess 1108 00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:04,279 Speaker 1: we've proven, like I'm not trying to disrespect anybody, Like 1109 00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:07,520 Speaker 1: everybody's opinion. You know, this guy's opinion is worthless. That 1110 00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:10,040 Speaker 1: guy's is because he's on the air and that guy isn't. 1111 00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:12,880 Speaker 1: But he like he's not even on the air. He 1112 00:56:12,960 --> 00:56:15,640 Speaker 1: hosts the Six Rings pod with Andy Hard. Okay, so 1113 00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:18,960 Speaker 1: it does. He is Andy's sidekick. Yeah, I could just 1114 00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:21,640 Speaker 1: tell you I've been on the Six Rings podcast and 1115 00:56:21,880 --> 00:56:24,320 Speaker 1: that guy wasn't on it. Well, maybe he was on vacation. 1116 00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:29,560 Speaker 1: Maybe yeah, I was with Fitzy and Andy's and yeah 1117 00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:32,520 Speaker 1: I heard it. But the more often than not, he's 1118 00:56:32,560 --> 00:56:37,080 Speaker 1: about anyway, So you like, see, no he doesn't know. 1119 00:56:37,239 --> 00:56:40,560 Speaker 1: I don't. I find that there's a a cult of 1120 00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:45,680 Speaker 1: the player starting in the younger generation. They're not focused 1121 00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:47,880 Speaker 1: on the team because he complains what we lost, this, this, 1122 00:56:48,080 --> 00:56:51,319 Speaker 1: this and this, but he doesn't see how players add 1123 00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:55,239 Speaker 1: to a team rather than to their individual statistics, and 1124 00:56:55,360 --> 00:56:57,400 Speaker 1: he doesn't seem to value that. And I'm wondering if 1125 00:56:57,440 --> 00:57:01,320 Speaker 1: there's a generational gap between some of the newer Paths 1126 00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:03,600 Speaker 1: fans or the newer football fans in general, and the 1127 00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:06,680 Speaker 1: older ones where you know, it's we look at it 1128 00:57:06,719 --> 00:57:08,560 Speaker 1: and we see it's a team game, and we see, yeah, 1129 00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:10,520 Speaker 1: we had stars, but they played as a team. It 1130 00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:13,879 Speaker 1: was the coaching, the team effort. Everything worked as a team, 1131 00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:19,000 Speaker 1: and that's why we won. Really, I think so okay, 1132 00:57:19,360 --> 00:57:21,840 Speaker 1: Paul never thought that. I think you had the greatest 1133 00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:23,880 Speaker 1: player who's ever played and you won six titles with them. 1134 00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:28,280 Speaker 1: They also surgery. They also had a strong middle class 1135 00:57:28,320 --> 00:57:30,200 Speaker 1: with good and that greatest player who ever played went 1136 00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:32,520 Speaker 1: to one of the most moribun franchises in all of sport. 1137 00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:36,520 Speaker 1: And one another one. Wow, I heard they had loaded 1138 00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:40,520 Speaker 1: with talent, but maybe I was where correct? Talent player? Talent? 1139 00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:47,040 Speaker 1: What was it, Fred? That one? They were loaded with talent? Right? Correct? Yeah? Team, Hey, 1140 00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:50,760 Speaker 1: we're all one, Paul. Paul does not agree with the 1141 00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:57,760 Speaker 1: statement that hard work beats talent. Well, what's the rest 1142 00:57:57,800 --> 00:58:00,320 Speaker 1: of that, don't don't don't leave out the rest? Right, 1143 00:58:00,520 --> 00:58:04,760 Speaker 1: hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard, right, 1144 00:58:05,040 --> 00:58:08,800 Speaker 1: that's different. Now you're talking about lazy talent, Well, that 1145 00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:13,080 Speaker 1: happens with a lot, that happens. Tom Brady was not lazy. Yeah, 1146 00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:15,960 Speaker 1: not at all, but that team was until he got 1147 00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:20,800 Speaker 1: there and installed a new culture. Correct. But I agree 1148 00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:24,640 Speaker 1: with your assessment, Fred, Tampa was a talented team. Yeah, 1149 00:58:25,880 --> 00:58:27,640 Speaker 1: that's why they won. Not because they all of a 1150 00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:30,200 Speaker 1: sudden said one for all, all for one. Here we go. 1151 00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:32,360 Speaker 1: It's not about the best fifty three, it's the right 1152 00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:35,400 Speaker 1: fifty three. But I think that's part of it too. 1153 00:58:35,440 --> 00:58:38,080 Speaker 1: See I don't go all the way to the set. 1154 00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:40,040 Speaker 1: I mean we were really good at covering kicks. I 1155 00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:42,160 Speaker 1: think there's a lot of players on the field at 1156 00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:44,720 Speaker 1: one time, and I think they all one guy can 1157 00:58:44,760 --> 00:58:48,440 Speaker 1: screw it up, regardless of who your best player is, 1158 00:58:48,880 --> 00:58:53,520 Speaker 1: you know, Yeah, as long as you're good, you overcome it. Yeah, Oh, 1159 00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:56,160 Speaker 1: I think that's been When Cam Newton is the quarterback, 1160 00:58:56,200 --> 00:58:58,720 Speaker 1: it's hard to overcome. Do they not have a team atmosphere? 1161 00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:01,040 Speaker 1: When Cam Newton was here? It's like they suddenly lost 1162 00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:03,560 Speaker 1: their culture or was he just not very good? He 1163 00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:07,040 Speaker 1: wasn't good? There you go. But there's been some good 1164 00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:10,120 Speaker 1: players strategically use Candidas, been some good players and good 1165 00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:13,040 Speaker 1: teams that haven't won. I think. I think football is 1166 00:59:13,080 --> 00:59:16,320 Speaker 1: a That's what I love about football. It takes takes 1167 00:59:16,360 --> 00:59:21,280 Speaker 1: a team. It does of talent. Right, they have to 1168 00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:23,760 Speaker 1: play as a team or it can screw It's not 1169 00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:28,560 Speaker 1: just talent. It's not just talent. That talent. I didn't 1170 00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:30,440 Speaker 1: play as a team, but in general terms, the more 1171 00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:34,560 Speaker 1: talented team of course, of course, right, that's all. Yeah, 1172 00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:36,720 Speaker 1: I'm not telling you you can just be talented and 1173 00:59:36,800 --> 00:59:38,680 Speaker 1: go out there and say screw you. I'm not going 1174 00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:40,520 Speaker 1: to throw the ball to you. I'm too good to 1175 00:59:40,600 --> 00:59:43,080 Speaker 1: throw the ball to Micah, Like, you can't play like 1176 00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:45,360 Speaker 1: that and win. And you're in the NFL too, there's 1177 00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:48,919 Speaker 1: but he has some degrees. Let's just pump the brakes 1178 00:59:48,960 --> 00:59:52,000 Speaker 1: on the whole, like middle class nonsense and like you're 1179 00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:55,840 Speaker 1: the teams that win in general are really talented. There's 1180 00:59:55,880 --> 00:59:58,040 Speaker 1: not a lot of like rag tab But that's what 1181 00:59:58,160 --> 01:00:00,520 Speaker 1: made the two thousand and one Patriots so special. That 1182 01:00:00,800 --> 01:00:03,520 Speaker 1: was kind of a ragtag bunch of guys that came together, 1183 01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:07,000 Speaker 1: a bunch of free agents that gels. They were much better, 1184 01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:09,200 Speaker 1: you know, the whole was much better than the sum 1185 01:00:09,280 --> 01:00:11,480 Speaker 1: of the parts. Right, That's what made two thousand and 1186 01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:15,360 Speaker 1: one so special. As we found out they were better 1187 01:00:15,400 --> 01:00:17,080 Speaker 1: than we thought that they had a lot of talent, 1188 01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:20,480 Speaker 1: they just we didn't realize it. But in general terms, 1189 01:00:20,720 --> 01:00:22,840 Speaker 1: there aren't a lot of title winning teams that don't 1190 01:00:22,880 --> 01:00:27,040 Speaker 1: have like a tremendous amount of talent. True, right in football, 1191 01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:31,640 Speaker 1: in any sport really, Yeah, Like it takes talent to win, 1192 01:00:31,760 --> 01:00:34,040 Speaker 1: Like to win at that level, you need all of it. 1193 01:00:34,200 --> 01:00:38,120 Speaker 1: You need talent and you know, to buy no doubt, Yeah, 1194 01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:41,600 Speaker 1: any execution in just those specific moments, just like look 1195 01:00:41,680 --> 01:00:44,880 Speaker 1: like the Rams, Like were the Rams markedly more talented 1196 01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:47,160 Speaker 1: last year than they were in previous years? Or did 1197 01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:49,760 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford come in and give them an elite quarterback 1198 01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:52,520 Speaker 1: that put them over the top. Like they were a 1199 01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:55,439 Speaker 1: really good team the last five years with Sean McVeigh. Sure, 1200 01:00:56,400 --> 01:00:58,800 Speaker 1: but they became great when they lost Jared Goff and 1201 01:00:58,840 --> 01:01:02,320 Speaker 1: got Matthew Stafford. They became great and they got other 1202 01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:05,800 Speaker 1: things besides Matthew Stafford as well. They went out and 1203 01:01:06,240 --> 01:01:10,800 Speaker 1: spent a lot of money last year on who I mean, 1204 01:01:11,120 --> 01:01:14,480 Speaker 1: I would still say like getting well. Obviously Obij got injured, 1205 01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:17,000 Speaker 1: but like I feel like he was a good get 1206 01:01:17,440 --> 01:01:20,440 Speaker 1: at the he helped them. But Obj replaced Robert Woods 1207 01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:22,000 Speaker 1: when he got hurt. They went out and got a 1208 01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:24,320 Speaker 1: guy to replace the guy who got hurt. Yeah, like 1209 01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:29,600 Speaker 1: all the other guys were there, ye right, pretty much? Yeah, 1210 01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:33,040 Speaker 1: the only drafting guys they bring in the running back 1211 01:01:34,120 --> 01:01:38,160 Speaker 1: Sonny Sonny, the backup running back. Yes, he helped them. 1212 01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:40,440 Speaker 1: They traded. They traded for the backup running back that 1213 01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:42,200 Speaker 1: they thought was so valuable they allowed him to go 1214 01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:44,400 Speaker 1: them that they allowed him to leave him free help him. 1215 01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:47,680 Speaker 1: He did, he did. You can't deny it didn't deny 1216 01:01:47,760 --> 01:01:51,320 Speaker 1: that he helped him, deny that he had one shred 1217 01:01:51,400 --> 01:01:55,200 Speaker 1: of an impact on their one lost record. I'll deny that. Okay, 1218 01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:56,960 Speaker 1: they would have won the Super Bowl whether he was 1219 01:01:57,040 --> 01:02:00,360 Speaker 1: there or not. Erect or not. Maybe, but they helped 1220 01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:02,160 Speaker 1: helped him win a couple of games down the stretch. No, 1221 01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:05,880 Speaker 1: we didn't, Uh, Dana Virginia in Michigan. Hey, Paul, how 1222 01:02:05,920 --> 01:02:08,920 Speaker 1: does someone get appointed to play Tigger at the Everett 1223 01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:12,560 Speaker 1: Fourth of July Parade asking for a friend?

I'm surprised that they didn't pay 1294 01:06:10,440 --> 01:06:13,040 Speaker 1: for those autographs. There's no ear, no ear that that's 1295 01:06:13,080 --> 01:06:22,760 Speaker 1: like the depressed parade you stole it from. Uh, let's see, 1296 01:06:23,240 --> 01:06:26,360 Speaker 1: Ryan writes in what's going on to you? Crewe? Ryan 1297 01:06:26,480 --> 01:06:29,560 Speaker 1: from Virginia had a question for Paul Tamara and Alex 1298 01:06:29,640 --> 01:06:32,640 Speaker 1: Well She's not here today and anyone else if they 1299 01:06:32,680 --> 01:06:35,360 Speaker 1: wanted to chime in. Do you think college sports are dead? 1300 01:06:36,120 --> 01:06:39,160 Speaker 1: With Texas and Oklahoma joining the SEC, and UCLA and 1301 01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:42,720 Speaker 1: USC in the Big Ten, My interest in college sports 1302 01:06:42,840 --> 01:06:45,480 Speaker 1: is starting to wane, which is horribly sad because I 1303 01:06:45,600 --> 01:06:48,520 Speaker 1: love college football and basketball. Would love to hear your 1304 01:06:48,560 --> 01:06:52,680 Speaker 1: opinions on conference expansion, nil transfer waivers, et cetera. That's 1305 01:06:52,720 --> 01:06:55,920 Speaker 1: a whole different topic. Yeah. Well one, Actually I just 1306 01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:57,880 Speaker 1: saw a tweet go out that said the Big Twelve 1307 01:06:57,960 --> 01:07:01,280 Speaker 1: was in deep discussions air quote to add six PAC 1308 01:07:01,360 --> 01:07:05,600 Speaker 1: twelve schools Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, Oregon, Utah, and Washington. 1309 01:07:06,800 --> 01:07:11,520 Speaker 1: I don't like this whole realignment thing that's happening with 1310 01:07:11,720 --> 01:07:14,360 Speaker 1: everyone like deciding to jump ship on their conference and 1311 01:07:14,480 --> 01:07:16,760 Speaker 1: go to different ones. One. I think that when you 1312 01:07:16,840 --> 01:07:19,760 Speaker 1: look at the sports obviously beyond football, it's like the 1313 01:07:19,920 --> 01:07:25,240 Speaker 1: idea of a softball team from UCLA having to come 1314 01:07:25,480 --> 01:07:28,080 Speaker 1: all the way over to like Rutgers to play them 1315 01:07:28,120 --> 01:07:30,960 Speaker 1: in softball or baseball or like any of the other 1316 01:07:31,040 --> 01:07:33,280 Speaker 1: Olympic sports. It's like they're not going to get the 1317 01:07:33,320 --> 01:07:37,280 Speaker 1: same funding to get across the country like this. And 1318 01:07:37,440 --> 01:07:39,400 Speaker 1: so it's like, sure, the football team is gonna charter, 1319 01:07:39,400 --> 01:07:41,520 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. They're going to spend whatever money. But 1320 01:07:41,680 --> 01:07:44,480 Speaker 1: like think about the rest of the sports, Like is 1321 01:07:44,560 --> 01:07:48,800 Speaker 1: the athletic department really gonna be making money? Well, maybe 1322 01:07:48,880 --> 01:07:51,360 Speaker 1: the Big ten should have Big tennies Big ten West 1323 01:07:52,120 --> 01:07:54,120 Speaker 1: and then they just come together for the playoffs. It's 1324 01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:56,920 Speaker 1: going to be a cross country flying but either way, 1325 01:07:57,000 --> 01:07:59,680 Speaker 1: like Big ten West would be trips to like Michigan. Yeah, 1326 01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:04,120 Speaker 1: this is like for you usc Tamara's got it exactly right. 1327 01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:07,200 Speaker 1: It's the only thing I would disagree with. They'll have 1328 01:08:07,240 --> 01:08:08,880 Speaker 1: plenty of money because of all the money that football 1329 01:08:08,920 --> 01:08:11,000 Speaker 1: is going to be generating. But I do think it's 1330 01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:12,560 Speaker 1: kind of the beginning of the end of why are 1331 01:08:12,640 --> 01:08:15,640 Speaker 1: they doing it because just Big ten's a better conference? 1332 01:08:15,720 --> 01:08:19,040 Speaker 1: Well Big ten with the media rights now I saw 1333 01:08:19,160 --> 01:08:25,120 Speaker 1: something like the Big ten network cable providers charged something 1334 01:08:25,200 --> 01:08:27,519 Speaker 1: like ten cents a month for the Big Ten And 1335 01:08:27,560 --> 01:08:29,680 Speaker 1: now it's going to be like a dollar sixty, Like 1336 01:08:30,760 --> 01:08:33,720 Speaker 1: just with that one move, like the SEC and the 1337 01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:37,560 Speaker 1: Big ten are taking over. Yeah, and the ACC is 1338 01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:39,960 Speaker 1: going to be in trouble. The Big twelve is is 1339 01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:41,960 Speaker 1: going to be in trouble. The Pac twelve, as Tamara 1340 01:08:42,080 --> 01:08:45,840 Speaker 1: just said, probably will be no more. Um, what's I 1341 01:08:45,840 --> 01:08:47,519 Speaker 1: don't think it's a good development. What if we just 1342 01:08:47,560 --> 01:08:49,680 Speaker 1: got rid of conference football and just made it in 1343 01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:55,720 Speaker 1: football and divide it up like you do NFL baseball. 1344 01:08:55,840 --> 01:08:58,400 Speaker 1: You know, you have your East West, South North kind 1345 01:08:58,439 --> 01:09:01,120 Speaker 1: of like what what I guess the better game does 1346 01:09:01,160 --> 01:09:03,439 Speaker 1: in a sense of like they built their own schedule. Yeah, 1347 01:09:04,120 --> 01:09:06,920 Speaker 1: but then would it's still be kind of compound, compartmentalized 1348 01:09:07,040 --> 01:09:09,760 Speaker 1: within the areas of the country though a little bit 1349 01:09:10,560 --> 01:09:15,559 Speaker 1: in pros. Yeah, I think that would work. I think too. 1350 01:09:15,680 --> 01:09:18,880 Speaker 1: It's just like that's not helping a school like UCLA 1351 01:09:19,280 --> 01:09:22,680 Speaker 1: and trying to get into the college football playoffs. It's like, 1352 01:09:22,720 --> 01:09:24,760 Speaker 1: you just made it worse for yourself. Well, they have 1353 01:09:24,840 --> 01:09:28,720 Speaker 1: only themselves to blame because because like pretty much had 1354 01:09:28,760 --> 01:09:30,640 Speaker 1: a shot at winning the Pac twelve of the year, 1355 01:09:30,720 --> 01:09:35,160 Speaker 1: well like six months ago, they wanted to vote on 1356 01:09:35,240 --> 01:09:38,160 Speaker 1: a new playoff plan. And do you think they should 1357 01:09:38,200 --> 01:09:40,280 Speaker 1: let more teams in, right, and this was going to 1358 01:09:40,320 --> 01:09:43,040 Speaker 1: be an expansion in the PAC twelve and the ACC 1359 01:09:43,240 --> 01:09:47,720 Speaker 1: voted no for an expanded playoff with automatic bids that 1360 01:09:47,840 --> 01:09:50,559 Speaker 1: they would have gotten. Now they will never get those 1361 01:09:50,760 --> 01:09:52,479 Speaker 1: when they when it does, because I think it's going 1362 01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:54,800 Speaker 1: to expand in twenty five maybe. Yeah, you probably know 1363 01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:57,559 Speaker 1: more about this than I do. Yeah, it's it's not immediate, yeah, 1364 01:09:57,720 --> 01:10:01,240 Speaker 1: because they turned it down. But when this current plan, 1365 01:10:02,040 --> 01:10:04,840 Speaker 1: when that contract is up, it will expand and they're 1366 01:10:04,880 --> 01:10:06,560 Speaker 1: not going to get automatic bids. It's just gonna be 1367 01:10:06,640 --> 01:10:10,680 Speaker 1: like four SEC teams and four Big ten teams that 1368 01:10:10,720 --> 01:10:13,280 Speaker 1: will be the playoff. All right, we're gonna take a break. 1369 01:10:13,800 --> 01:10:16,120 Speaker 1: We'll have more to talk about when we come back, 1370 01:10:16,760 --> 01:10:19,320 Speaker 1: and we'll talk about soap of the Slot as well. 1371 01:10:20,360 --> 01:10:24,440 Speaker 1: Patriot Places the region's number one shopping, dining, and entertainment destination. 1372 01:10:24,880 --> 01:10:29,519 Speaker 1: Shop your favorites including Vineyard, Vines, Express, Olympia, Sports, Petco 1373 01:10:29,720 --> 01:10:32,760 Speaker 1: and more.

It's just given that the indentation is 1683 01:29:03,840 --> 01:29:05,639 Speaker 1: for saving the soap. Could you just kind of take 1684 01:29:05,800 --> 01:29:07,599 Speaker 1: like if you just had a regular bar, you put 1685 01:29:07,720 --> 01:29:09,120 Speaker 1: the old piece on there and just kind of do 1686 01:29:09,200 --> 01:29:10,880 Speaker 1: the same thing.

I don't 1688 01:29:14,200 --> 01:29:16,120 Speaker 1: know what the indentation in the patient would help a 1689 01:29:16,200 --> 01:29:20,760 Speaker 1: little bit. Again, the slot would be even better. Slips 1690 01:29:20,800 --> 01:29:22,599 Speaker 1: out of the slot though, how do you get in there? 1691 01:29:22,640 --> 01:29:25,479 Speaker 1: And really it won't you know, yeah, you gotta welded. 1692 01:29:25,920 --> 01:29:29,280 Speaker 1: It won't.

Matt 1771 01:33:46,960 --> 01:33:51,000 Speaker 1: writes in I stubbled, I stubbled but it's really I 1772 01:33:51,720 --> 01:33:55,280 Speaker 1: stumbled I think across your podcast about three months ago 1773 01:33:55,439 --> 01:33:59,200 Speaker 1: and now listen. Uh. I love tuning in each week. 1774 01:33:59,560 --> 01:34:03,200 Speaker 1: Everyone that's hilarious, knowledgeable. I tend to agree with Paul 1775 01:34:03,280 --> 01:34:06,040 Speaker 1: and most things and laugh at his straightforward and no 1776 01:34:06,240 --> 01:34:10,519 Speaker 1: nonsense arguments. I still don't know how nothing Patriots related 1777 01:34:10,600 --> 01:34:13,080 Speaker 1: can be going on and somehow you fill a two 1778 01:34:13,120 --> 01:34:15,959 Speaker 1: hour show, which is why this is the best podcast 1779 01:34:16,040 --> 01:34:19,160 Speaker 1: to listen to. Also, I almost fell off my couch 1780 01:34:19,240 --> 01:34:22,200 Speaker 1: the day Fred told everyone after he eats buffalo wings 1781 01:34:22,240 --> 01:34:25,880 Speaker 1: he lets his dog fingers top five funniest things I've 1782 01:34:25,920 --> 01:34:28,439 Speaker 1: ever heard in my life. Really, we brought that up. 1783 01:34:28,479 --> 01:34:30,360 Speaker 1: You need to live. My friend brought that up again 1784 01:34:30,400 --> 01:34:33,639 Speaker 1: on Tuesday. We had a conversation. Oh, I was listening, 1785 01:34:34,520 --> 01:34:36,840 Speaker 1: not live, but I was listening. I got some some 1786 01:34:37,000 --> 01:34:40,240 Speaker 1: barbecue wings over the weekend, and that immediately came to 1787 01:34:40,320 --> 01:34:53,120 Speaker 1: my mind. Let you let will well Dad, that doesn't 1788 01:34:53,160 --> 01:34:58,439 Speaker 1: even move? Oh my god. Um anyway, uh, he says 1789 01:34:58,479 --> 01:35:01,719 Speaker 1: his question for everyone is I keep hearing great leadership 1790 01:35:01,800 --> 01:35:05,559 Speaker 1: comments from veterans on the Patriots roster. Are they saying 1791 01:35:05,760 --> 01:35:09,000 Speaker 1: that because they have to? They have to because Mac 1792 01:35:09,160 --> 01:35:12,080 Speaker 1: is the quarterback? Or because he actually has those great 1793 01:35:12,160 --> 01:35:16,280 Speaker 1: leadership qualities. I personally think Mac does have those qualities, 1794 01:35:16,600 --> 01:35:18,640 Speaker 1: and I have faith he will lead this team in 1795 01:35:18,760 --> 01:35:22,320 Speaker 1: the future. I think he's really got him. I mean 1796 01:35:22,360 --> 01:35:25,280 Speaker 1: it seems pretty genuine. I mean, I do think that 1797 01:35:25,360 --> 01:35:27,519 Speaker 1: there's a level of people are always going to say 1798 01:35:27,560 --> 01:35:29,840 Speaker 1: our quarterback is doing great and is a great leader, 1799 01:35:29,920 --> 01:35:31,400 Speaker 1: and that's just something you have to say as an 1800 01:35:31,439 --> 01:35:34,240 Speaker 1: NFL player. But I think everything I've seen from Mac 1801 01:35:34,400 --> 01:35:37,040 Speaker 1: just he's totally invested in doing this. That doesn't mean 1802 01:35:37,080 --> 01:35:38,439 Speaker 1: that he's going to be a Hall of Fame player, 1803 01:35:38,560 --> 01:35:41,840 Speaker 1: but I think he's done and said everything right as 1804 01:35:41,920 --> 01:35:45,759 Speaker 1: far as jumping in taking ownership of the position. Working 1805 01:35:45,880 --> 01:35:49,080 Speaker 1: hard players he's got has died in order. We'll see 1806 01:35:49,120 --> 01:35:50,600 Speaker 1: what the results on the field look like. But I 1807 01:35:50,720 --> 01:35:53,000 Speaker 1: don't think off the field, you can really ask for 1808 01:35:53,120 --> 01:35:54,759 Speaker 1: much more than what he's done. I have no idea, 1809 01:35:56,160 --> 01:35:58,599 Speaker 1: I don't. I mean, I definitely have heard the comments, 1810 01:35:58,760 --> 01:36:01,000 Speaker 1: just like the email. A matter of fact, I wrote 1811 01:36:01,040 --> 01:36:04,000 Speaker 1: a voluminous feature about it that will be appearing in 1812 01:36:04,080 --> 01:36:07,240 Speaker 1: the Patriots Yearbook, which would be on sale at some 1813 01:36:07,320 --> 01:36:11,479 Speaker 1: point during training. Okay, what is going on? I mean, 1814 01:36:11,560 --> 01:36:14,360 Speaker 1: all we can go with his empirical evidence, and the 1815 01:36:14,479 --> 01:36:16,920 Speaker 1: evidence we saw this spring is that he was a 1816 01:36:17,000 --> 01:36:21,360 Speaker 1: lot more vocal than he was last spring, so he 1817 01:36:21,439 --> 01:36:24,760 Speaker 1: should be. Was he instructing the offense? Right? That's all 1818 01:36:24,800 --> 01:36:27,800 Speaker 1: we know. He's more vocal, right. And I would also say, um, 1819 01:36:29,600 --> 01:36:33,080 Speaker 1: and again, when I say none, I don't mean zero 1820 01:36:33,200 --> 01:36:34,800 Speaker 1: because I can think of one right off the top 1821 01:36:34,840 --> 01:36:36,559 Speaker 1: of my head. But I can't think of too many 1822 01:36:36,640 --> 01:36:39,240 Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the history of football that weren't good leaders. 1823 01:36:40,200 --> 01:36:44,679 Speaker 1: I think I think Jerry Goss not a good leader. 1824 01:36:44,840 --> 01:36:47,360 Speaker 1: I don't think I think that's his problem at all. 1825 01:36:47,920 --> 01:36:52,160 Speaker 1: Talent is this problem. But um, Jay Cutler would be 1826 01:36:52,200 --> 01:36:53,760 Speaker 1: the one guy that I would say that's three. I 1827 01:36:53,840 --> 01:36:56,120 Speaker 1: think he was a great leader. Um. I don't think 1828 01:36:56,160 --> 01:36:58,200 Speaker 1: Tony Easton had problems being a leader. I just don't 1829 01:36:58,200 --> 01:37:00,320 Speaker 1: think he was good enough. What he wasn't tough and 1830 01:37:00,400 --> 01:37:02,080 Speaker 1: he wasn't good. No, but he wanted to follow him. 1831 01:37:02,120 --> 01:37:03,760 Speaker 1: That means he's not a good leader because they didn't 1832 01:37:03,760 --> 01:37:05,640 Speaker 1: think he was good. Okay, but he was also not 1833 01:37:06,240 --> 01:37:09,679 Speaker 1: there's other stories to Paul you write, you know nothing exactly. 1834 01:37:09,800 --> 01:37:12,040 Speaker 1: They thought he would fold, but they didn't think he 1835 01:37:12,160 --> 01:37:14,800 Speaker 1: was talking about off field story. Yes they thought he was. 1836 01:37:15,360 --> 01:37:18,639 Speaker 1: He was speak yeah, yes, so he wasn't a good leader, okay. 1837 01:37:20,040 --> 01:37:24,599 Speaker 1: Dad has to do with leadership, tying you lead by example. Okay, 1838 01:37:24,680 --> 01:37:26,880 Speaker 1: so that's three. Even though I don't agree with Jared 1839 01:37:26,880 --> 01:37:29,120 Speaker 1: Goff at all, I'll give you Tony Easton and Jay Cutler. 1840 01:37:29,120 --> 01:37:31,439 Speaker 1: What don't you keep going? I just I'll get my 1841 01:37:31,560 --> 01:37:35,360 Speaker 1: list out and i'll send it to you. Okay. I 1842 01:37:35,400 --> 01:37:38,360 Speaker 1: just think that inherent in that position you have, you 1843 01:37:38,520 --> 01:37:40,920 Speaker 1: have to be a leader. You can't play quarterback your 1844 01:37:40,960 --> 01:37:43,000 Speaker 1: whole life and not be a leader. That's why I 1845 01:37:43,080 --> 01:37:45,320 Speaker 1: was surprised he wasn't a captain last year. He should 1846 01:37:45,360 --> 01:37:47,880 Speaker 1: have been. I think he should have been. And I 1847 01:37:47,920 --> 01:37:49,800 Speaker 1: would be stunned if he's not a captain this year. Oh, 1848 01:37:49,840 --> 01:37:52,000 Speaker 1: I think he will be. It's it's just the easiest 1849 01:37:52,000 --> 01:37:56,120 Speaker 1: stuff to do. Showing up, eating right means to be 1850 01:37:56,240 --> 01:37:58,800 Speaker 1: a captain has to be and I would be stunned 1851 01:37:58,840 --> 01:38:01,920 Speaker 1: if he's not. Kingsley Wright say, and you guys keep 1852 01:38:01,960 --> 01:38:05,479 Speaker 1: mentioning sliding someone into Jacob Johnson's spot on the roster. 1853 01:38:05,960 --> 01:38:08,160 Speaker 1: I thought he was an extra I thought he was 1854 01:38:08,200 --> 01:38:11,600 Speaker 1: an extra exemption since he was a European transfer. I 1855 01:38:11,640 --> 01:38:13,799 Speaker 1: could have swore he had a roster exemption that allowed 1856 01:38:13,840 --> 01:38:15,760 Speaker 1: us to keep him on the team for the first 1857 01:38:15,800 --> 01:38:18,320 Speaker 1: two years. He did. No, he no, no, not in 1858 01:38:18,360 --> 01:38:21,200 Speaker 1: the regular season. He's a roster exemption in training camp. 1859 01:38:21,520 --> 01:38:23,639 Speaker 1: So you could have ninety one guys in training camp. 1860 01:38:23,920 --> 01:38:26,000 Speaker 1: If he makes your fifty three men roster, he counts. 1861 01:38:26,600 --> 01:38:29,000 Speaker 1: Not the first two years one a bet, Well, no, 1862 01:38:29,240 --> 01:38:34,080 Speaker 1: but this, yes, he counts if he's on the team. 1863 01:38:35,280 --> 01:38:37,880 Speaker 1: That's the way it goes. I thought, I thought that. 1864 01:38:38,680 --> 01:38:41,280 Speaker 1: I thought that for the first two years it was 1865 01:38:41,320 --> 01:38:47,080 Speaker 1: a straight exemption. It's those pathway program players only give 1866 01:38:47,160 --> 01:38:51,280 Speaker 1: you an exemption in the training camp. They don't count, 1867 01:38:51,640 --> 01:38:53,280 Speaker 1: or a roster spot. But if he makes the fifty 1868 01:38:53,320 --> 01:38:55,240 Speaker 1: three man roster, you can't just have one of those guys. 1869 01:38:55,360 --> 01:38:58,479 Speaker 1: Why would anybody ever cut one? Well, that's the thing. 1870 01:38:58,520 --> 01:39:01,759 Speaker 1: In the first two years, you don't, So why wouldn't anybody? 1871 01:39:01,800 --> 01:39:03,840 Speaker 1: Why would anybody ever cut one? If it doesn't, if 1872 01:39:03,880 --> 01:39:07,120 Speaker 1: it doesn't count, you'd have fifty four players in your roster. 1873 01:39:07,240 --> 01:39:10,679 Speaker 1: Every team would have one. I think, I know, I'm right, Okay, 1874 01:39:10,760 --> 01:39:14,240 Speaker 1: it could be. I thought there was something something about 1875 01:39:14,240 --> 01:39:17,840 Speaker 1: the first two years. It was an exemption, but maybe 1876 01:39:17,880 --> 01:39:21,080 Speaker 1: you're right, it's just in training camp, you know. Yeah, 1877 01:39:21,160 --> 01:39:24,200 Speaker 1: it's it once it's fifty three man, everybody has to 1878 01:39:24,240 --> 01:39:26,639 Speaker 1: be down. But certainly not now even now training camp, 1879 01:39:26,760 --> 01:39:31,320 Speaker 1: even that is gone now with Johnson, you don't even 1880 01:39:31,360 --> 01:39:36,799 Speaker 1: get that exemption now. So but there's no more international 1881 01:39:36,880 --> 01:39:39,639 Speaker 1: player exemption stuff going on. Oh there is, but there's 1882 01:39:39,680 --> 01:39:41,479 Speaker 1: only so many of them to go around. It's not 1883 01:39:41,560 --> 01:39:44,160 Speaker 1: like there's this waiting list of European players that are 1884 01:39:44,320 --> 01:39:48,400 Speaker 1: good enough to play in the NFL. You know, there's 1885 01:39:48,439 --> 01:39:50,639 Speaker 1: only like a handful. Yeah, it still seems like could 1886 01:39:50,640 --> 01:39:52,760 Speaker 1: be a priority for the league to try to Oh yeah, 1887 01:39:52,800 --> 01:39:56,160 Speaker 1: and that's why they give that exemption, to motivate teams 1888 01:39:56,200 --> 01:39:58,800 Speaker 1: to take them, you know, to give them a shot 1889 01:40:00,080 --> 01:40:03,080 Speaker 1: unless they've you know, unless they changed it. And I like, 1890 01:40:03,520 --> 01:40:05,599 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure that's the way it was when jacof 1891 01:40:05,680 --> 01:40:09,960 Speaker 1: Johnson became a Patriot. But look it up. May changed it. 1892 01:40:10,040 --> 01:40:11,560 Speaker 1: I don't know, no, I thought at the time. So 1893 01:40:11,680 --> 01:40:14,720 Speaker 1: if we go not, if it wasn't, then it's not now. Yeah, 1894 01:40:14,800 --> 01:40:16,760 Speaker 1: Well he got pulled up in in nineteen when Devil 1895 01:40:16,920 --> 01:40:20,200 Speaker 1: went down, and he was here briefly. Yeah, I think 1896 01:40:20,240 --> 01:40:22,000 Speaker 1: he was. I think he made it fair and square 1897 01:40:22,000 --> 01:40:25,720 Speaker 1: after that point. Yeah. Yeah, I think once you make 1898 01:40:25,760 --> 01:40:28,559 Speaker 1: the roster you have to count. Otherwise some teams are 1899 01:40:28,640 --> 01:40:30,720 Speaker 1: that fifty four players and someone that fifty three. It's 1900 01:40:30,760 --> 01:40:35,600 Speaker 1: not fair, right, Yeah, but you took I don't know. 1901 01:40:35,680 --> 01:40:37,960 Speaker 1: I thought it was that that was the incentive to 1902 01:40:38,160 --> 01:40:43,720 Speaker 1: take these guys. But all right, um, let's see uh 1903 01:40:44,080 --> 01:40:48,599 Speaker 1: Locke from Adelaide Rights in Australia. I hope y'all had 1904 01:40:48,640 --> 01:40:51,320 Speaker 1: a wonderful fourth of July. First question for Fred, do 1905 01:40:51,360 --> 01:40:55,120 Speaker 1: you still do your lollapalooza shin dig for everyone? I 1906 01:40:55,200 --> 01:40:59,400 Speaker 1: don't because it's too far be fair. No really, I 1907 01:40:59,479 --> 01:41:02,000 Speaker 1: mean it was a hop, skip and a jump before. 1908 01:41:02,160 --> 01:41:04,160 Speaker 1: Now you'd have to drive an hour to get to 1909 01:41:04,280 --> 01:41:07,720 Speaker 1: my house, so wouldn't be fair for everyone? Beautiful. I 1910 01:41:07,760 --> 01:41:09,519 Speaker 1: would love to do it. If people wanted to do it, 1911 01:41:10,000 --> 01:41:14,120 Speaker 1: I'll go. Yeah. Well you place, you got a place 1912 01:41:15,000 --> 01:41:17,479 Speaker 1: in the offseason. I wanted to ask Paul firstly, but 1913 01:41:17,600 --> 01:41:21,720 Speaker 1: all of you, where you sat on player power in 1914 01:41:21,840 --> 01:41:24,759 Speaker 1: the league. Paul, you have previously a pine that leagues 1915 01:41:24,800 --> 01:41:27,640 Speaker 1: like the NBA have become two player dominant, where the 1916 01:41:27,680 --> 01:41:30,360 Speaker 1: players have more ability to dictate how teams are built. 1917 01:41:30,640 --> 01:41:33,040 Speaker 1: At the same time, you have a pine how NFL 1918 01:41:33,120 --> 01:41:36,280 Speaker 1: players have bargain poorly, with the most famous line being 1919 01:41:36,360 --> 01:41:39,479 Speaker 1: they will give up anything to make pot legal. Where 1920 01:41:39,520 --> 01:41:42,560 Speaker 1: do you think the optimal balance is in relation to 1921 01:41:42,720 --> 01:41:46,479 Speaker 1: player input in the team building process. Are you worried 1922 01:41:46,960 --> 01:41:49,599 Speaker 1: with the way that football is trending with super teams 1923 01:41:49,640 --> 01:41:51,920 Speaker 1: in LA or do you think that football will be 1924 01:41:52,000 --> 01:41:55,600 Speaker 1: insulated in part because players will continue to bargain in 1925 01:41:55,720 --> 01:41:58,640 Speaker 1: a sub optimal way. Well, there's a difference between the 1926 01:41:58,720 --> 01:42:03,040 Speaker 1: collective bargaining and having power once you're a player on 1927 01:42:03,120 --> 01:42:05,479 Speaker 1: a team. And they were talking about it today and 1928 01:42:05,840 --> 01:42:07,720 Speaker 1: on the radio, and I kind of agree, Like there 1929 01:42:07,880 --> 01:42:10,679 Speaker 1: was a time where you know, quarterbacks, I'm not the coach, 1930 01:42:11,040 --> 01:42:14,920 Speaker 1: But now guys like Brady and really good players aren't 1931 01:42:14,920 --> 01:42:18,320 Speaker 1: dictating like get this guy, don't get that guy, Let's 1932 01:42:18,400 --> 01:42:23,040 Speaker 1: run this type of offense. I think, particularly quarterbacks have 1933 01:42:23,160 --> 01:42:25,200 Speaker 1: a little bit more power in the NFL than they 1934 01:42:25,280 --> 01:42:26,920 Speaker 1: used to have, and I think that that power is 1935 01:42:26,960 --> 01:42:32,040 Speaker 1: going to start to manifest more into quarterbacks wanting receivers 1936 01:42:32,120 --> 01:42:36,400 Speaker 1: and wanting weapons. That's like Aaron Rodgers specific Yeah, demanding 1937 01:42:36,479 --> 01:42:39,200 Speaker 1: for the past, like four drifts like I need a receiver, 1938 01:42:39,320 --> 01:42:42,519 Speaker 1: and they're like, let's drip to quarterback. Let's drop this instead, 1939 01:42:42,960 --> 01:42:48,920 Speaker 1: And it's like he certainly wants that power, but that 1940 01:42:49,120 --> 01:42:52,840 Speaker 1: position commands too much money for you not to listen 1941 01:42:52,920 --> 01:42:55,040 Speaker 1: to the guy. You know, you don't. You got to 1942 01:42:55,160 --> 01:42:57,200 Speaker 1: keep them happy. And to your point, you know, the 1943 01:42:57,320 --> 01:43:01,160 Speaker 1: quarterback is usually a leader, and I think that when 1944 01:43:01,240 --> 01:43:03,479 Speaker 1: you have someone like this leading your team, you should 1945 01:43:03,560 --> 01:43:05,760 Speaker 1: kind of weigh into their insight of like what I 1946 01:43:05,880 --> 01:43:08,040 Speaker 1: think that they need. Right, Yeah, I mean I don't 1947 01:43:08,040 --> 01:43:10,360 Speaker 1: have any problem. I think that that's just good business 1948 01:43:10,400 --> 01:43:12,439 Speaker 1: asking the coaches to, you know, especially if you have 1949 01:43:12,479 --> 01:43:14,080 Speaker 1: an in graind quarterback that's going to be here for 1950 01:43:14,160 --> 01:43:16,240 Speaker 1: a while and and you know, to make him feel 1951 01:43:16,280 --> 01:43:17,760 Speaker 1: like he's part of the process. I mean, this is 1952 01:43:17,760 --> 01:43:20,200 Speaker 1: probably some of the Brady stuff that we're treading around 1953 01:43:20,240 --> 01:43:21,960 Speaker 1: a little bit, But I don't have a problem with that. 1954 01:43:22,000 --> 01:43:24,120 Speaker 1: At the very least, if you disagree with his opinion, 1955 01:43:24,240 --> 01:43:26,640 Speaker 1: have a really good reason why not at least let 1956 01:43:26,760 --> 01:43:29,080 Speaker 1: him know here's why we're not going to do that, 1957 01:43:29,400 --> 01:43:32,080 Speaker 1: you know, right, I mean, be respectful of the scouts 1958 01:43:32,120 --> 01:43:34,160 Speaker 1: and the whole process that's in place to you know, 1959 01:43:34,280 --> 01:43:37,280 Speaker 1: to find these guys. But you know, hey, these are 1960 01:43:37,320 --> 01:43:39,240 Speaker 1: the ten guys, the ten receivers on our board right 1961 01:43:39,280 --> 01:43:41,880 Speaker 1: now that we like, you know, ranging from first to 1962 01:43:42,240 --> 01:43:44,080 Speaker 1: last round. You know, what do you think they look 1963 01:43:44,120 --> 01:43:45,920 Speaker 1: at these players, you know, sit down with them. I 1964 01:43:46,040 --> 01:43:49,200 Speaker 1: think that that's just you know, good business and investing them. 1965 01:43:49,280 --> 01:43:51,839 Speaker 1: So when hey, if you have some input through the process, 1966 01:43:51,920 --> 01:43:53,920 Speaker 1: that guy gets here, he already feels like, hey, I 1967 01:43:54,439 --> 01:43:56,599 Speaker 1: you know, have seen this guy and vouch for him, 1968 01:43:56,640 --> 01:43:58,639 Speaker 1: and now he's invested in making sure that that guy's 1969 01:43:58,640 --> 01:44:01,160 Speaker 1: successful as well. I mean maybe that does feed into 1970 01:44:01,200 --> 01:44:03,479 Speaker 1: some of the Brady stuff where they maybe I'm you know, 1971 01:44:03,600 --> 01:44:06,400 Speaker 1: just speculating off. If they weren't including him on stuff, 1972 01:44:06,560 --> 01:44:08,680 Speaker 1: I think he has less incentive to you know, all 1973 01:44:08,720 --> 01:44:11,320 Speaker 1: of a sudden, say, Nikil Harry arrives, Well, you know, 1974 01:44:11,680 --> 01:44:13,240 Speaker 1: Brady's not going to give him any benefit of the 1975 01:44:13,320 --> 01:44:16,160 Speaker 1: doubt if he wasn't a guy that really Tom was 1976 01:44:16,240 --> 01:44:19,000 Speaker 1: interested in maybe initially or something like that. So I 1977 01:44:19,040 --> 01:44:20,960 Speaker 1: don't know, I just think if your quarterback is your guy, 1978 01:44:21,840 --> 01:44:24,120 Speaker 1: you'd be respectful of him and let him be included. 1979 01:44:24,160 --> 01:44:26,519 Speaker 1: And some not all the decisions, but especially when some 1980 01:44:26,600 --> 01:44:28,880 Speaker 1: receivers and you know guys that you know he's got 1981 01:44:28,960 --> 01:44:31,240 Speaker 1: to work directly with to make the offense come to 1982 01:44:31,320 --> 01:44:33,840 Speaker 1: find anything out. Paul, Yeah, I had it right. You 1983 01:44:33,960 --> 01:44:36,360 Speaker 1: had it right. If you have a Originally when they 1984 01:44:36,400 --> 01:44:38,080 Speaker 1: had him on the practice squad, you could have an 1985 01:44:38,120 --> 01:44:40,559 Speaker 1: extra guy in the practice squad. He wouldn't count, okay, 1986 01:44:40,680 --> 01:44:42,840 Speaker 1: And originally they said that if you do that, then 1987 01:44:42,880 --> 01:44:45,599 Speaker 1: he couldn't be promoted. Then they changed that to say 1988 01:44:45,720 --> 01:44:48,479 Speaker 1: he could be promoted off the practice squad, but if 1989 01:44:48,520 --> 01:44:50,200 Speaker 1: he's on the fifty three, he counts us or so 1990 01:44:50,280 --> 01:44:52,280 Speaker 1: you could have an extra practice squad play. Yeah. I 1991 01:44:52,320 --> 01:44:54,200 Speaker 1: don't know if that has since been changed too, because 1992 01:44:54,320 --> 01:44:57,040 Speaker 1: now if so many practice squads exactly, That's why I 1993 01:44:57,120 --> 01:44:59,560 Speaker 1: didn't go back and look. But I do agree with 1994 01:44:59,640 --> 01:45:01,840 Speaker 1: you guys. Is the way you were talking about the power, 1995 01:45:01,960 --> 01:45:04,960 Speaker 1: Like the NBA has gotten ridiculous and the RAMS don't 1996 01:45:05,000 --> 01:45:08,599 Speaker 1: have that situation. People aren't in the NFL. There isn't 1997 01:45:08,680 --> 01:45:13,640 Speaker 1: really a lot of like I don't think concern for 1998 01:45:13,720 --> 01:45:18,200 Speaker 1: super teams forming by teams like talking like in the NBA, 1999 01:45:18,400 --> 01:45:20,799 Speaker 1: it's so much easier. You get you get two stars 2000 01:45:20,880 --> 01:45:23,080 Speaker 1: to talk, right, and they agree to join the same 2001 01:45:23,160 --> 01:45:26,479 Speaker 1: team and instant contender. That's not you know, as much 2002 01:45:26,520 --> 01:45:28,880 Speaker 1: as I talk about talents, it's not as easy as that. 2003 01:45:28,960 --> 01:45:31,920 Speaker 1: In the NFL. Yeah, there's twenty two guys that start right, 2004 01:45:32,200 --> 01:45:34,240 Speaker 1: so just two is not going to put you like 2005 01:45:35,479 --> 01:45:40,000 Speaker 1: championship contender status. Well, didn't like to keep it local, didn't. 2006 01:45:40,040 --> 01:45:43,320 Speaker 1: Patriots Bears are on make some demands with the Bruins 2007 01:45:43,320 --> 01:45:46,080 Speaker 1: about personnel. Well, I don't know. I don't know, not 2008 01:45:46,120 --> 01:45:49,120 Speaker 1: that I'm aware. No, back when he was right now 2009 01:45:49,720 --> 01:45:52,479 Speaker 1: people are suggesting that he may be coming back because 2010 01:45:52,600 --> 01:45:55,719 Speaker 1: Cassidy left. Well, but I thought there was something else 2011 01:45:56,120 --> 01:45:59,519 Speaker 1: that he a certain player had to stay or something 2012 01:45:59,600 --> 01:46:03,600 Speaker 1: like that or go. I forget. Maybe you want to 2013 01:46:03,600 --> 01:46:07,519 Speaker 1: Critchy back, I'll tell you I'm with you on this one. 2014 01:46:07,560 --> 01:46:10,000 Speaker 1: For you. I can't wait to watch the Bruins next 2015 01:46:10,080 --> 01:46:14,600 Speaker 1: year with no coach in two year old centers Jimmy Montgomery, 2016 01:46:15,320 --> 01:46:19,040 Speaker 1: we got the band back together. Nat writes in from 2017 01:46:19,160 --> 01:46:22,920 Speaker 1: Santa Cruz Mountains by way of Cambridge, Mass. I've been 2018 01:46:23,040 --> 01:46:26,400 Speaker 1: clearing up my storage in my garage recently. Inevitably I 2019 01:46:26,640 --> 01:46:28,840 Speaker 1: look at each item and say is it worth keeping? 2020 01:46:29,160 --> 01:46:31,800 Speaker 1: I recently picked up a rule if I didn't have 2021 01:46:32,040 --> 01:46:35,000 Speaker 1: this and my neighbor offered me this item for free, 2022 01:46:35,439 --> 01:46:38,360 Speaker 1: would I even want it? It's a good rule, keep 2023 01:46:38,439 --> 01:46:40,160 Speaker 1: in mind the pain of having to get rid of 2024 01:46:40,200 --> 01:46:42,920 Speaker 1: an item on Craigslist or at the dump. If an 2025 01:46:42,960 --> 01:46:45,439 Speaker 1: item does meet that minimum value, then I give it 2026 01:46:45,479 --> 01:46:48,599 Speaker 1: away or sell it on Craig's List for next to nothing. Obviously, 2027 01:46:48,680 --> 01:46:52,160 Speaker 1: sentimental value items are excluded. That got me thinking of 2028 01:46:52,280 --> 01:46:55,960 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty two Patriots. The equivalent here is if 2029 01:46:56,000 --> 01:46:58,880 Speaker 1: a player has a zero dollar cap hit? How many 2030 01:46:58,960 --> 01:47:02,559 Speaker 1: guys on the team? Now would you cut even if 2031 01:47:02,600 --> 01:47:06,400 Speaker 1: they had no cap hit? Whatsoever? And follow up? Do 2032 01:47:06,439 --> 01:47:09,160 Speaker 1: you think Bill sees we drafted him in the top 2033 01:47:09,240 --> 01:47:15,240 Speaker 1: four rounds? As a sentimental value item? You who would 2034 01:47:15,280 --> 01:47:20,000 Speaker 1: you cut if there was no repercussions? I mean, I 2035 01:47:20,160 --> 01:47:23,840 Speaker 1: don't think that my answer would change, because I would 2036 01:47:23,880 --> 01:47:25,880 Speaker 1: cut a guy if I didn't think he was any good. 2037 01:47:25,960 --> 01:47:27,680 Speaker 1: If he's not gonna help me, I don't want him 2038 01:47:27,680 --> 01:47:31,519 Speaker 1: on my team, right, I don't know. I mean, I 2039 01:47:31,560 --> 01:47:33,360 Speaker 1: don't want to cut anybody. I want to see, like 2040 01:47:33,600 --> 01:47:36,160 Speaker 1: there's nobody I'm guying to get off the rocks. It 2041 01:47:36,280 --> 01:47:39,639 Speaker 1: just depends on what's my alternative like, Okay, I'll cut 2042 01:47:39,680 --> 01:47:41,360 Speaker 1: a lot of guys if I know that I'm going 2043 01:47:41,400 --> 01:47:44,400 Speaker 1: to upgrade with somebody else. Good point, you know. Yeah, 2044 01:47:45,439 --> 01:47:46,840 Speaker 1: but it's easy to sit there and say, well I 2045 01:47:46,880 --> 01:47:48,680 Speaker 1: get rid of John Smith and Nelson Agile, or if 2046 01:47:48,680 --> 01:47:50,960 Speaker 1: there were no cap rampifications, well, if I don't think 2047 01:47:50,960 --> 01:47:52,920 Speaker 1: they're gonna help my team in any way, I don't 2048 01:47:52,960 --> 01:47:55,600 Speaker 1: want them on my team cap or not, right, And 2049 01:47:55,720 --> 01:47:58,080 Speaker 1: I agree with Mike or like, let's play it out 2050 01:47:58,160 --> 01:48:01,800 Speaker 1: the second year free agents. Maybe they make some improvements. Yeah, 2051 01:48:02,000 --> 01:48:05,360 Speaker 1: And I do think, though to his other question, regardless 2052 01:48:05,479 --> 01:48:08,160 Speaker 1: of what any coach says, any guy drafted in the 2053 01:48:08,240 --> 01:48:12,760 Speaker 1: top four rounds has a little bit more value than not. Yeah, 2054 01:48:12,840 --> 01:48:15,519 Speaker 1: and they're always really early, and there are always examples 2055 01:48:15,560 --> 01:48:18,519 Speaker 1: of rookie draft picks getting cut. Um. You know, the 2056 01:48:18,640 --> 01:48:20,960 Speaker 1: Raiders have done it a lot over the last couple 2057 01:48:21,000 --> 01:48:23,960 Speaker 1: of years. Um, But it's rare to see guys in 2058 01:48:24,040 --> 01:48:27,120 Speaker 1: the top three four rounds get cut. Remember when Parcels 2059 01:48:27,160 --> 01:48:31,120 Speaker 1: cut Chung, not Patrick? The other one Eugene was not. 2060 01:48:31,760 --> 01:48:33,720 Speaker 1: It wasn't as a rookie, no, but he was a 2061 01:48:33,800 --> 01:48:36,120 Speaker 1: high draft pick. Yeah, but he was a first round pick. 2062 01:48:36,160 --> 01:48:37,760 Speaker 1: But he wouldn't get cut as a rook he's talking 2063 01:48:37,760 --> 01:48:39,680 Speaker 1: about as a rookie. No, I know, but he was. 2064 01:48:39,840 --> 01:48:42,200 Speaker 1: Um it was a second year, right, I don't think so, No, 2065 01:48:43,160 --> 01:48:45,920 Speaker 1: it was. I mean it sent shock waves to the team. 2066 01:48:46,960 --> 01:48:48,880 Speaker 1: That's before my time. You know. It was like, I'll 2067 01:48:48,920 --> 01:48:51,559 Speaker 1: take your word. We've been around a long time. Fred 2068 01:48:51,720 --> 01:48:55,400 Speaker 1: Parcels is making a statement. You know, no one's guys 2069 01:48:55,400 --> 01:48:58,599 Speaker 1: who stink, no one's job as a given. Yeah, let's 2070 01:48:58,600 --> 01:49:03,000 Speaker 1: see Eugene Chung Chung stats. I remember him from the 2071 01:49:03,040 --> 01:49:05,080 Speaker 1: sideline to my my high school game. I did hear 2072 01:49:05,120 --> 01:49:07,519 Speaker 1: and him getting all fired up on the sideline. Well, 2073 01:49:07,560 --> 01:49:09,120 Speaker 1: it took me for like two years not to call 2074 01:49:09,240 --> 01:49:14,439 Speaker 1: Patrick Chung Eugene. Yes, Eugene Chung Um was cut in 2075 01:49:14,880 --> 01:49:18,560 Speaker 1: Parcels his third year here. He played three years with 2076 01:49:18,640 --> 01:49:20,960 Speaker 1: the Patriots. Yeah, and he was out of the league 2077 01:49:20,960 --> 01:49:23,640 Speaker 1: two years later. So why do you get cut? Not 2078 01:49:23,760 --> 01:49:26,680 Speaker 1: good because he couldn't get Bob. Let's get back to 2079 01:49:26,760 --> 01:49:34,200 Speaker 1: the phones. Five five hundred. Jason's in Connecticut. What's up Jason? Gentlemen, lady, 2080 01:49:34,280 --> 01:49:38,920 Speaker 1: how are you doing? Good? God? Are great?

You look like call you start. 2087 01:50:01,680 --> 01:50:04,720 Speaker 1: Thank you very much for that. I appreciate that seriously. Yeah, 2088 01:50:04,960 --> 01:50:09,880 Speaker 1: nobody is more intellectually honest than you are. Entire industry. Good. 2089 01:50:11,120 --> 01:50:14,880 Speaker 1: So it's the off season, and I've been saving up 2090 01:50:15,040 --> 01:50:21,400 Speaker 1: some questions that I call useless, pointless football questions, and 2091 01:50:21,560 --> 01:50:23,599 Speaker 1: I'm going to ask you one that I think might 2092 01:50:23,680 --> 01:50:25,720 Speaker 1: be a little fun for you to answer. And if 2093 01:50:25,760 --> 01:50:28,240 Speaker 1: it is, then I'll call back another day with another one. 2094 01:50:28,320 --> 01:50:30,800 Speaker 1: And if it isn't, then you'll never hear from me again. 2095 01:50:31,400 --> 01:50:35,479 Speaker 1: A lot of pressure. So here it is. So I 2096 01:50:35,600 --> 01:50:39,120 Speaker 1: think we can all agree that a football field is flat, 2097 01:50:39,720 --> 01:50:42,559 Speaker 1: But what if it wasn't. If you had to design 2098 01:50:42,600 --> 01:50:45,880 Speaker 1: a new football field and you had to do one 2099 01:50:45,920 --> 01:50:49,040 Speaker 1: of the following three things. Either it comes to a 2100 01:50:49,120 --> 01:50:52,360 Speaker 1: hill in the middle, it comes to a hill in 2101 01:50:52,680 --> 01:50:55,400 Speaker 1: both end zones, or it comes to a hill in 2102 01:50:55,680 --> 01:50:59,920 Speaker 1: one end zone. Which would you pick in order to 2103 01:51:00,479 --> 01:51:04,400 Speaker 1: make for the most interesting. Oh, for sure. It comes 2104 01:51:04,439 --> 01:51:06,920 Speaker 1: to a hill both end zones. It's all you have 2105 01:51:07,000 --> 01:51:10,240 Speaker 1: to go uphill to get downhill, you know, and so 2106 01:51:10,320 --> 01:51:12,720 Speaker 1: you're kind of going downhill to the fifth downhill to well, 2107 01:51:12,760 --> 01:51:14,800 Speaker 1: you get downhill until you get to the red zone 2108 01:51:15,080 --> 01:51:18,479 Speaker 1: and then it gradually starts to go up again. I 2109 01:51:18,640 --> 01:51:20,920 Speaker 1: was kind of intrigued by the hill in the middle 2110 01:51:21,080 --> 01:51:23,599 Speaker 1: that it's that it's a little hard to get half field, 2111 01:51:23,640 --> 01:51:25,719 Speaker 1: but once you get there, then it's harder on the defense. 2112 01:51:26,400 --> 01:51:28,600 Speaker 1: I find that a little intriguing. Okay, but you know, 2113 01:51:28,720 --> 01:51:33,240 Speaker 1: technically there is a grade to fields like there used 2114 01:51:33,280 --> 01:51:36,960 Speaker 1: to be the old Dallas field. When you stood on 2115 01:51:37,000 --> 01:51:41,880 Speaker 1: the sideline, you could not see the other sideline, like 2116 01:51:42,160 --> 01:51:45,479 Speaker 1: literally you couldn't see the line, and like you were 2117 01:51:45,600 --> 01:51:49,400 Speaker 1: up to like other guy shins. That's how steep the 2118 01:51:49,520 --> 01:51:52,400 Speaker 1: grade was in the middle of the field. And Buffalo's 2119 01:51:52,479 --> 01:51:56,640 Speaker 1: was pretty good compain like, not complained. That's strong, but 2120 01:51:57,080 --> 01:51:59,280 Speaker 1: he commented that he had the hard time adjusting to it, 2121 01:51:59,439 --> 01:52:03,960 Speaker 1: but it was the old AstroTurf. Yeah. So Jason, first 2122 01:52:04,000 --> 01:52:06,200 Speaker 1: of all, what made you think of this and what's 2123 01:52:06,240 --> 01:52:10,960 Speaker 1: your answer? Well, nothing made me thig of it other 2124 01:52:11,040 --> 01:52:13,760 Speaker 1: than the fact that I like to think of lots 2125 01:52:13,800 --> 01:52:16,720 Speaker 1: of point with stuff. That's part of my job. I 2126 01:52:16,960 --> 01:52:20,160 Speaker 1: like that technology and engineering teacher is to come up 2127 01:52:20,200 --> 01:52:24,200 Speaker 1: with strange scenarios and give my students like challenges to 2128 01:52:24,280 --> 01:52:28,280 Speaker 1: try and figure out the best answer to them. But 2129 01:52:28,560 --> 01:52:32,240 Speaker 1: my answer personally is I'm with deuced the middle of 2130 01:52:32,320 --> 01:52:37,479 Speaker 1: the field. I think it's more interesting to make the 2131 01:52:37,640 --> 01:52:40,760 Speaker 1: offense sort of have to climb to the center, and 2132 01:52:41,000 --> 01:52:44,200 Speaker 1: then the hill in the middle would make for some 2133 01:52:44,680 --> 01:52:48,439 Speaker 1: big plays on offense going to the other end zone 2134 01:52:48,439 --> 01:52:51,120 Speaker 1: and create more offense. I also think people would get hurt, 2135 01:52:51,280 --> 01:52:53,479 Speaker 1: like ankles would get turned and stuff. I was thinking 2136 01:52:53,520 --> 01:52:56,639 Speaker 1: the mechanics like throwing uphill or throwing downhill, or catching 2137 01:52:56,680 --> 01:52:59,840 Speaker 1: while running downhill and then like accelerating downhill. Paul might 2138 01:53:00,520 --> 01:53:02,840 Speaker 1: Paul might know, But wasn't there a baseball field in 2139 01:53:02,920 --> 01:53:06,640 Speaker 1: the outfield Astros originally Yeah, the new place, they had 2140 01:53:06,680 --> 01:53:10,160 Speaker 1: the little hill in deep center field. So they realized 2141 01:53:10,320 --> 01:53:14,080 Speaker 1: that's really stupid and dangerous. Yes, yeah, yeah, and they 2142 01:53:14,120 --> 01:53:16,160 Speaker 1: took it out. Yeah, we were in that place for 2143 01:53:16,439 --> 01:53:19,639 Speaker 1: a media day. Okay, um, what was the last time 2144 01:53:19,720 --> 01:53:22,400 Speaker 1: we were in Houston? First I went to exactly Atlanta, game, 2145 01:53:22,680 --> 01:53:25,320 Speaker 1: Atlanta game. After that, I went actually went to an 2146 01:53:25,400 --> 01:53:28,559 Speaker 1: Astro's game in that ballpark. It's a good little indoor world. Poh. 2147 01:53:28,600 --> 01:53:30,400 Speaker 1: It's a nice it's a nice stadium. But they used 2148 01:53:30,400 --> 01:53:34,880 Speaker 1: to have a flagpole on a hill in deep center field. 2149 01:53:34,960 --> 01:53:37,080 Speaker 1: I think the idea was like that wall would never 2150 01:53:37,120 --> 01:53:40,000 Speaker 1: get hit up that hill until like center fields are like, 2151 01:53:40,439 --> 01:53:43,000 Speaker 1: you know, almost breaking their ankles running up a hill 2152 01:53:43,720 --> 01:53:46,240 Speaker 1: that hill into a flagpole. You haven't you haven't seen 2153 01:53:46,280 --> 01:53:54,479 Speaker 1: episode far Mike's in Baltimore. What's up, Mike? Hey, guys, 2154 01:53:54,760 --> 01:53:57,120 Speaker 1: when it comes to what, when it comes to what 2155 01:53:57,240 --> 01:53:59,680 Speaker 1: you see on the practice field, how do you know 2156 01:53:59,800 --> 01:54:02,360 Speaker 1: what you can tell us and what you can't. Is 2157 01:54:02,400 --> 01:54:04,599 Speaker 1: there a written set of rules on what you can 2158 01:54:04,680 --> 01:54:07,080 Speaker 1: tell us? Yes, yes, yeah, And that's the same for 2159 01:54:07,200 --> 01:54:11,439 Speaker 1: all media. By the way, Um they they they send 2160 01:54:11,479 --> 01:54:15,080 Speaker 1: out a list of sort of rules and regulations. We're 2161 01:54:15,120 --> 01:54:20,400 Speaker 1: not supposed to talk about trick plays or specific players 2162 01:54:20,479 --> 01:54:25,080 Speaker 1: lining up in you know, abnormal positions, um kind of 2163 01:54:25,240 --> 01:54:30,080 Speaker 1: scheme related stuff like you know, really really in the weeds. Basically, 2164 01:54:30,160 --> 01:54:33,040 Speaker 1: they don't want us scouting for anybody exactly, you know, exactly. 2165 01:54:33,240 --> 01:54:35,000 Speaker 1: So there are some parameters that we all have to 2166 01:54:35,080 --> 01:54:37,440 Speaker 1: fall under. I mean, other than trick plays, I've never 2167 01:54:37,480 --> 01:54:39,000 Speaker 1: found a lot of stuff that I'm like, oh, I 2168 01:54:39,080 --> 01:54:42,600 Speaker 1: really shouldn't mention that, Like, no, you don't really haveful 2169 01:54:42,640 --> 01:54:44,800 Speaker 1: you don't really have much of an analytical football mind 2170 01:54:44,840 --> 01:54:47,800 Speaker 1: that probably see that. Yeah, but you know, like if 2171 01:54:47,960 --> 01:54:53,120 Speaker 1: you've talked about Dug well, yeah, I mean we could 2172 01:54:53,120 --> 01:54:55,440 Speaker 1: say who's returning, that's okay, But like if all of 2173 01:54:55,440 --> 01:54:57,440 Speaker 1: a sudden, you know, they've had a trick play where 2174 01:54:57,480 --> 01:54:59,920 Speaker 1: Mac lines up wide and goes out for a path, 2175 01:55:00,360 --> 01:55:02,960 Speaker 1: we couldn't We couldn't talk about that, or they're faking 2176 01:55:03,320 --> 01:55:05,760 Speaker 1: field goals and whatnot. We're not talking about all that. 2177 01:55:06,160 --> 01:55:08,800 Speaker 1: And groupings. You know, we're not really supposed to say, Okay, 2178 01:55:09,320 --> 01:55:11,560 Speaker 1: you know it looks like this is the starting line. 2179 01:55:11,600 --> 01:55:14,680 Speaker 1: They don't want us talking about starting lineups, backup lineups, 2180 01:55:14,760 --> 01:55:17,080 Speaker 1: but you know, we sort of try to creatively go around, 2181 01:55:17,200 --> 01:55:21,000 Speaker 1: like Cole Strange is lining up next to David Andrews 2182 01:55:21,040 --> 01:55:23,800 Speaker 1: and Trent Brown. Yeah, we're trying to tell you those 2183 01:55:23,840 --> 01:55:26,520 Speaker 1: are You guys probably know that Trent Brown and David 2184 01:55:26,520 --> 01:55:29,120 Speaker 1: Andrews is starting and Cole Strange is with them, So 2185 01:55:29,840 --> 01:55:31,960 Speaker 1: we leave the reader to sort of figure out, well, 2186 01:55:32,000 --> 01:55:33,600 Speaker 1: Cole Strange is starting. Well, it's like the wind and 2187 01:55:33,680 --> 01:55:35,560 Speaker 1: brown flip flop, like that's a little bit in that 2188 01:55:35,600 --> 01:55:38,920 Speaker 1: great that I was and I waited for everybody else 2189 01:55:38,960 --> 01:55:40,480 Speaker 1: to write it, and then I wrote and then it's 2190 01:55:40,480 --> 01:55:44,480 Speaker 1: out there. Yeah, yeah, all right, cool, thank you guys. 2191 01:55:44,520 --> 01:55:47,200 Speaker 1: All right, Mike. It's a good question though, Mike, because 2192 01:55:47,960 --> 01:55:51,200 Speaker 1: sometimes I think people want to attack, like why are 2193 01:55:51,200 --> 01:55:53,560 Speaker 1: the media not telling Well, usually if it's something that's 2194 01:55:53,600 --> 01:55:56,120 Speaker 1: pretty obvious in the media is not telling you, there's 2195 01:55:56,120 --> 01:55:57,920 Speaker 1: a reason. Yeah, and that is they don't want us 2196 01:55:57,960 --> 01:56:00,240 Speaker 1: to tell you, right, And that's why I wonder if 2197 01:56:00,280 --> 01:56:02,320 Speaker 1: we're gonna get we're talking about RPOs, if we're seeing 2198 01:56:02,320 --> 01:56:04,120 Speaker 1: a lot of that stuff, go, I mean that's something 2199 01:56:04,240 --> 01:56:06,720 Speaker 1: that you could see that you would know that you know, 2200 01:56:06,800 --> 01:56:10,760 Speaker 1: they would not probably not want about it. Well, that's 2201 01:56:10,760 --> 01:56:13,600 Speaker 1: the thing, and it is kind of silly because it's 2202 01:56:13,640 --> 01:56:16,120 Speaker 1: gonna get out there. And plus you know in training 2203 01:56:16,200 --> 01:56:20,320 Speaker 1: camp there's thousands and thousands of fans also. Yeah, and 2204 01:56:20,360 --> 01:56:22,800 Speaker 1: that and that is one that's a good point too, Freddie, 2205 01:56:22,840 --> 01:56:25,320 Speaker 1: because I always feel like it's you're a little more 2206 01:56:25,400 --> 01:56:27,840 Speaker 1: open in training camp than you are in mini camp. Yeah, 2207 01:56:28,000 --> 01:56:31,720 Speaker 1: because of that reason, people posting videos, People are posting videos, 2208 01:56:31,800 --> 01:56:35,360 Speaker 1: people are you know, writing their own blogs whatever. But obviously, 2209 01:56:35,480 --> 01:56:39,720 Speaker 1: if if Joe Schmosas are in an RPO and you know, 2210 01:56:40,120 --> 01:56:42,960 Speaker 1: Kevin Bedard says it, uh, it's a little bit more 2211 01:56:43,000 --> 01:56:49,080 Speaker 1: credibility if Art says it's Greig's in turn to his 2212 01:56:49,160 --> 01:56:52,720 Speaker 1: giant pillows. Stephen in Santa Rosa, California says, did anyone 2213 01:56:52,800 --> 01:56:56,080 Speaker 1: watch the Pro Bowl throwing contest between Mac Jones and 2214 01:56:56,160 --> 01:57:00,080 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson? I have concerns about Max's accuracy or his 2215 01:57:00,200 --> 01:57:03,640 Speaker 1: ability to improve on it quickly enough. He was missing 2216 01:57:03,720 --> 01:57:06,440 Speaker 1: on almost every deep throw and Russell just crushed it. 2217 01:57:07,000 --> 01:57:10,120 Speaker 1: How much improvement can Mac make in this area and 2218 01:57:10,240 --> 01:57:13,840 Speaker 1: how long will it take? Also, you cannot compare this year, 2219 01:57:15,120 --> 01:57:17,920 Speaker 1: you mean to the Pro Bowl drills or to Russell Wilson. 2220 01:57:18,040 --> 01:57:22,280 Speaker 1: To Russell Wilson, I know it was. It was striking 2221 01:57:22,680 --> 01:57:24,720 Speaker 1: and acted great. I mean, he won the accuracy thing, 2222 01:57:24,800 --> 01:57:28,080 Speaker 1: but the deep, the deep accuracy won he was. I mean, 2223 01:57:28,200 --> 01:57:29,800 Speaker 1: I don't think he had any And then as the 2224 01:57:29,960 --> 01:57:32,000 Speaker 1: as he wrote it, Russell Wilson came in and it 2225 01:57:32,080 --> 01:57:34,840 Speaker 1: was just like bing bing, banging, right down the field. 2226 01:57:34,840 --> 01:57:39,440 Speaker 1: But that's what Russell Wilson does. I think is Russell 2227 01:57:39,480 --> 01:57:46,160 Speaker 1: Wilson underrated? Yes, I think because in the mention of 2228 01:57:46,240 --> 01:57:48,960 Speaker 1: like current players, I know he's a little older now, 2229 01:57:49,440 --> 01:57:55,879 Speaker 1: but current like he gets left off to the comment 2230 01:57:56,360 --> 01:57:59,720 Speaker 1: the conversation that we had earlier. I don't think this 2231 01:58:00,040 --> 01:58:07,480 Speaker 1: Sea Hawks had like an entire team to make him success. Well, 2232 01:58:07,520 --> 01:58:10,520 Speaker 1: it's like he had like obviously he had Metcalf like great, 2233 01:58:10,720 --> 01:58:14,280 Speaker 1: but like overall, it's like those two people of twenty 2234 01:58:14,320 --> 01:58:16,520 Speaker 1: two people. On the first five years of his career, 2235 01:58:16,600 --> 01:58:20,080 Speaker 1: he had the best defense in football. Yes, but this year, no, 2236 01:58:20,280 --> 01:58:21,840 Speaker 1: last year, they weren't very good. But like in the 2237 01:58:21,920 --> 01:58:23,400 Speaker 1: plays that he makes, like you know, you see him 2238 01:58:23,400 --> 01:58:26,360 Speaker 1: scramble around extending plays and oh he got lucky on 2239 01:58:26,480 --> 01:58:29,040 Speaker 1: that one, did he or was it partly his skill? 2240 01:58:29,200 --> 01:58:31,200 Speaker 1: I think I think, I think he's really good. I 2241 01:58:31,400 --> 01:58:34,680 Speaker 1: think he's I think he's a little overrated. I think 2242 01:58:34,720 --> 01:58:37,520 Speaker 1: he's I think he's given credit for having done more 2243 01:58:37,560 --> 01:58:41,240 Speaker 1: than he's done, kind of like Drew Brees is wildly 2244 01:58:41,320 --> 01:58:45,000 Speaker 1: over see. I don't I love to overrate him, but 2245 01:58:47,480 --> 01:58:51,720 Speaker 1: his accuracy and anticipation Drew Brees is uncanny, you know, 2246 01:58:51,840 --> 01:58:54,320 Speaker 1: and that's what overcomes the size and arm strung less. 2247 01:58:54,320 --> 01:58:56,880 Speaker 1: You happened he was playing outdoors. I'll circle back on 2248 01:58:56,920 --> 01:59:01,000 Speaker 1: the Russell Wilson question after this year in Denver. Okay. 2249 01:59:01,040 --> 01:59:03,240 Speaker 1: I think he's like But just because I say he's 2250 01:59:03,240 --> 01:59:05,200 Speaker 1: old Ray doesn't mean he's not good. I think I 2251 01:59:05,280 --> 01:59:07,600 Speaker 1: think he's great. I really do. I just don't think 2252 01:59:07,680 --> 01:59:10,040 Speaker 1: he is like you. Hear a lot of people say 2253 01:59:10,320 --> 01:59:14,280 Speaker 1: Brady Rogers, Wilson, Mahomes. I don't think he's there. No, 2254 01:59:14,520 --> 01:59:16,800 Speaker 1: I don't think. I think he's in a different tier. Yeah. Yeah, 2255 01:59:16,960 --> 01:59:19,120 Speaker 1: Now last year he wasn't in that tier because Tamara 2256 01:59:19,280 --> 01:59:21,040 Speaker 1: is right. They didn't have a very good team last year. 2257 01:59:21,840 --> 01:59:24,200 Speaker 1: But I think he's a great player. But I'll take 2258 01:59:24,240 --> 01:59:26,920 Speaker 1: Watson over Wilson. I think Watson has done more with 2259 01:59:27,120 --> 01:59:30,680 Speaker 1: less than Wilson has. Interest I would agree with on that. Oh, 2260 01:59:30,960 --> 01:59:36,760 Speaker 1: it was nice that you finally came. What about Lamars Wilson, Well, 2261 01:59:36,800 --> 01:59:40,000 Speaker 1: they don't. I like Wilson. He's a much better pastor 2262 01:59:40,040 --> 01:59:42,720 Speaker 1: than Lamar. But I like Lamar Jackson. These guys don't. 2263 01:59:43,000 --> 01:59:45,560 Speaker 1: They're not they're not concerned with wins. I'm not guy 2264 01:59:45,960 --> 01:59:51,880 Speaker 1: not convinced. You're not convinced. Still, seriously, thirty seven and twelve, Yeah, 2265 01:59:52,000 --> 01:59:55,720 Speaker 1: thirty seven times out of you know, is fifty games 2266 01:59:56,080 --> 01:59:58,800 Speaker 1: with the way he wanted. I guess I'll see. He's 2267 01:59:58,800 --> 02:00:00,680 Speaker 1: gotta start. He gotta put a play off run together. 2268 02:00:01,000 --> 02:00:03,880 Speaker 1: You know. That's what's gonna come down to. All right, Well, 2269 02:00:03,960 --> 02:00:06,520 Speaker 1: that's gonna be it for this edition of Patriots Unfiltered. 2270 02:00:06,640 --> 02:00:09,800 Speaker 1: We'll be back on Thursday with another one.
