19
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,200
Speaker 1: guy that would be on your board. Like his measurables

20
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 1: Bailey's Appy's taken as a pro and he's been great

21
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: as far as being fine. He hasn't been great as

22
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 1: far as being fine. Like this is Patriot's Unfiltered, fueled

Speaker 1: we'll be here for the next two hours talking Patriots.

27
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 1: Still still excited about that twenty nine nothing win. But

28
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 1: we're turning the page to the Cleveland Browns today. Boy,

29
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 1: yeah I saw them last year. Well boy, you say,

30
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 1: oh boy, you're worried. Now. Fun, fun, fun, fun, Let's

31
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: shut down this running game. Okay, I mean it's different

32
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 1: than last far as being average. Oh hello Bill, Oh,

33
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: let's you want to hear what Bill has to say.

34
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 1: Let's do it all right, Sure, let's do it all right.

35
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: Rolling in the Cleveland here. Um. You know, it's a

36
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: really pretty impressive team to watch. Um. They have a

37
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of talent, a lot of a

38
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:14,959
Speaker 1: lead talent. Um, very well coached. Um. So some of

39
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 1: the big challenge here, you know, all the way across

40
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 1: the board. They're good and good in all areas, uh,

41
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 1: you know, offensively, UM with a coach Stefanski and UM

42
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 1: coach Callahan. This is a very very good, UM, very

43
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 1: talented group and a very well well coached unit, especially

44
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 1: in the offensive line, probably as good as anybody will see. Um,

45
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:45,359
Speaker 1: they really know what they're doing. UM. The fundamentals and

46
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: techniques are are very good. We had trouble with them

47
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: last year. Everybody has trouble with them. A lot of

48
00:02:52,560 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 1: talent up front, UM Wills Tonio of course, Sake replace

49
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:05,359
Speaker 1: Tredder at the center, and he's got a lot of experience. Teller,

50
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 1: Um Conklin. I mean, guys that have been all Pros,

51
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: all Rookie Pro Bowls. I mean, you name it. I mean,

52
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: it's just a really really good group, UM that again

53
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 1: really knows what they're doing and are are talented. UM.

54
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: You know, some good receivers obviously Cooper another very high

55
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: profile player, and Joku productive tight end you know after Ozzie,

56
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 1: probably the best tight end of Browns I've ever had,

57
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: which that's saying something. UM, you know, people's jones, so good,

58
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: good skill players and obviously you know Chubbs is as

59
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: good as anybody. We'll see the hunting. I mean, I

60
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 1: got I got a lot of backs and and they're

61
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 1: all good, but Chubbs, Chubbs, he's tough. H Jcobe's playing well,

62
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 1: you know, a big strong kid that um compliments their offense. Again,

63
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 1: this is a two hundred yards a game, rushing, twenty

64
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: six points a game, whatever they score, and so they

65
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: can move the ball thing, score points. They control the

66
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 1: clock and keep their defense off the field. And again

67
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 1: they're they're extremely well coached and very good fundamentally. Um. Yeah, Defensively,

68
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 1: it's really one word. It's fast. Everybody's fast. Linebackers are fast,

69
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: Secondary is fast, d lines fast, Garrett and clown Air.

70
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:42,280
Speaker 1: It's good at book ends as there are a lot

71
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 1: of speed inside where whenever they're space, it doesn't stay

72
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,920
Speaker 1: space or very long. And they get it from the

73
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: lineman pursuit. They get it from the linebackers, get it

74
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 1: from secondary. Yet a lot of good players obviously Ward

75
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: you know newsom Um Emerson's a high pick. Linebackers and

76
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: Joka good good linebackers, very good, very good edge players,

77
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 1: and they play, they play very fast, and they're very disruptive.

78
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 1: So they're one of the top teams in the league

79
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 1: in three and outs. They get your negative plays bitch

80
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,040
Speaker 1: in long yard each and you know then it's all over.

81
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 1: So Um, you know, Clowney and Garrett is certainly cable

82
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: of wrecking a game on any play running pass with

83
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 1: They're explosiveness, speed, length, you name it, So very very

84
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,840
Speaker 1: dangerous on every play there. And you know in the

85
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 1: kicking game, UM and Rogers getting the kicking and return

86
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 1: game and boost um two big legs. Um. You know

87
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: the field goals and punts, and they can they can

88
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: change field position, knock the ball out of the park. Um,

89
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 1: fifty eight yard field goal will be Carolina so or

90
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 1: whatever it was. It's a long one halfway up the net.

91
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,360
Speaker 1: So it's I know what the leg is there, but

92
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: it's a lot, you know, so well balanced in all

93
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 1: the errors, very fast in their coverage. Seems they're you know,

94
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: defensive players on defense, same guys in the kicking game.

95
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 1: They're fast. They you got to get their speed or

96
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 1: it's hard to getting they started. So really good, good

97
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 1: all a round football team doesn't turn the ball over.

98
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: Very fundamentally sound, very fast, explosive and a lot of

99
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 1: a lot of talented players. So they've been challenged for

100
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: us this week all the way across the boards. No

101
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,720
Speaker 1: no one guy that can stop stop their running game,

102
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 1: No one guy that can block all the players that

103
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: need to be blocked. You know, we're gonna have to

104
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: play good, good team football, discipline the fundament as fundamentally

105
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: sound as they are, and with good communication awareness for

106
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 1: sixty minutes because they they can hit you on any play.

107
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 1: Very very talent on the team in every game. I

108
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 1: lost a couple of games to all close games and

109
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: they're all every game has been close onwhere or the other. So, um,

110
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 1: it's probably we should expect in what way? In what

111
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 1: ways has recent complimented their skill positions? Yeah, well, I

112
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 1: mean they have a great running game, play action passes.

113
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 1: You know they're they're not in a lot of long

114
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 1: yarded situations. Um. You know he does nice jobs stepping

115
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: up in the pocket. Um just got in the ball

116
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: to their their receivers, their skill guys, including Hunt. You

117
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 1: know Hunt's got a lot of production in the passing

118
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 1: game as well as he's probably got what three hundred

119
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: years of Russian whatever it is. Um, a good decision

120
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: making as a turn the ball over. So how much

121
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 1: does he look similar to what you saw when he

122
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 1: was here or how much has there been bros to that? Yeah? Well,

123
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: I mean what's about the same. Do you think he's

124
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 1: shrunk or gotten bigger? I don't know, night, We're all

125
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: about the same. Yeah, I mean, Hcobe looks like Jacoby,

126
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 1: you know, big kid's strong arm, you know, tough, smart,

127
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 1: does a good job of you know with with the

128
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 1: system that they're running, does a good job. It doesn't

129
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 1: turn the ball over, get some scrambly yards, gets the

130
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 1: ball to Cooper, people's hunt. Um, obviously in Joku so

131
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 1: does a nice job of run of the offense. I

132
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 1: mean they're scoring whatever, it's twenty six points a game.

133
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 1: I mean it's part of the quarterbacks job with the

134
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 1: ball score points. People. Do you expect to have Mac

135
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: Jones back this weekend? Um, we'll assume see what it's

136
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: like today go from there. How similar are Bingley, Zappy

137
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: and Mac Jones skill sets? Hasn't been an easy transition

138
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 1: having him, Um, you know, to take the first naps.

139
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: I practice a similar though I don't know, oh right

140
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 1: handed exactly? Does how Bailey played against Lions last week.

141
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: Pretty clean game overall. Um, change the timetable for bringing

142
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: back back, maybe afford you a little more lenience on

143
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:27,319
Speaker 1: the back end of the pretty back back totally independent,

144
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:36,199
Speaker 1: I think no, but not anything to do. It. Is

145
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 1: Mac the starter when he's ready to go, We'll see

146
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 1: where is that? I don't know, but what you see

147
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:53,199
Speaker 1: from your rand, you means that far it's been inconsistent.

148
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:59,959
Speaker 1: A better moments goodn't been. Is it possible that Mac

149
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,079
Speaker 1: to be healthy enough to back up Bailey as you

150
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:12,599
Speaker 1: wouldn't started. I don't know. We'll see what kind of

151
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 1: challenges creating. So yeah, everything again. But as I said,

152
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,439
Speaker 1: they're very well coached. Callahan does a tremendous job of

153
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: the offensive line. Their fundamentals are good, their schemes are good. Um.

154
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 1: They create opportunities for the backs, and then the backs specifically,

155
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 1: Chuck does a lot on his own. He's very hard

156
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 1: to tackle. He's got tremendous contact balance, playing strength, UM,

157
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 1: good vision, good patience. He really sets up his blocks well.

158
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 1: He gets the most out of every block, and then

159
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 1: he's very hard to get on the ground. Um plays

160
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,559
Speaker 1: up a good ball security and as that explosive plays,

161
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 1: gets a lot of tough yards, gets a lot of

162
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: consistent yards. He's he's really good, and he's got a

163
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 1: good group in front of him. And they absolutely know

164
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: what they're doing. They they handled defensive challenges as well

165
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 1: as anybody. Stunts, alignments, blitzays. I mean they they waxed

166
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:17,199
Speaker 1: us pretty good last year, especially early in the game. Um,

167
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 1: so I said, we got to work it out for

168
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 1: us coach, they had run a lot of two tight

169
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,959
Speaker 1: end sets on offense. Just what does that do to

170
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: stress the defense? Especially? All right, Well, I think we

171
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,840
Speaker 1: got the essentials there. Evan's question, did you cut out

172
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 1: right as Evan? Well, we're gonna have Evan ourselves get

173
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 1: the answer that we can ask him. But uh, there's

174
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 1: no way we win this game. I sound pretty good.

175
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: I mean that, I mean, yeah, that was you know,

176
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 1: like he always does that. But I mean, I mean,

177
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,839
Speaker 1: really he said the coaches two, Fred, your eyes lit

178
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 1: up at that. I saw you, well coached some something

179
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,439
Speaker 1: he didn't say last week of the opponent. Um, but

180
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,719
Speaker 1: he really laid it on thick today. Huh. And and

181
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,599
Speaker 1: you know, listen, we talked about it yesterday. Teams know

182
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 1: that Cleveland has to run. Yet they are still averaging

183
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 1: one hundred and ninety yards a game. That's ridiculous. So

184
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 1: there's you know that's not nobody's held them under one

185
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 1: seventy I mean the lowest was Pittsburgh one seventy one,

186
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 1: right in two seventy one, seventy seven and two thirty. Yeah,

187
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 1: so it's not like one game they had four hundred

188
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 1: yards and that skewed it. They're doing this against everybody,

189
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: and they and like I said, the teams know that

190
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,679
Speaker 1: they have to run the ball, but Jacobe prict as

191
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 1: their quarterback, and yet they're still leading the league in it.

192
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 1: So you know, between the offensive line and Chub and

193
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 1: who's the other guy, I forget, uh Hunt, Kareem Hunt.

194
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 1: I mean that's a that's a powerful attack. And the

195
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 1: Patriots are going to have their work cut out of,

196
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 1: you know, for them stopping the runs, something that you

197
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,079
Speaker 1: know they've yet to prove that they can do consistently. Yeah. Um,

198
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 1: so that you know, therein lies the challenge I think

199
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,079
Speaker 1: for the Patriots. I think like the close game stuff

200
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 1: too that that Bill highlighted. I mean, every you know,

201
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 1: all the games. I mean I think it's like some

202
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,719
Speaker 1: like six points that might have, you know, been the

203
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 1: difference in like their three of their losses. So every

204
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:14,719
Speaker 1: game is close. You're right on last week, right, and

205
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 1: that weight. It's all all right down to the end.

206
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: And I mean I think, you know, we we make

207
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: a little bit of fun of Jacoby Brissett, like, but

208
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,599
Speaker 1: I think he's, Yeah, he's done a head job. He

209
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:27,719
Speaker 1: hasn't lost. I mean, he's competing sixty five percent of

210
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: his past. Yeah, he's not just going to be. But

211
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: I think he's made some He's made some throws, he's

212
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,439
Speaker 1: kept them in games. Yeah, you know, it hasn't just

213
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 1: been all the run game and he's alone for the right.

214
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 1: Certainly run games a big part of it. But you

215
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 1: know he's he's made some throws and he hasn't killed

216
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: them with mistakes, so um, you know they're They're The

217
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 1: thing I keep looking at though, is is essentially the

218
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,599
Speaker 1: same defenses last year and the Patriots basically scored on

219
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 1: every possession except one. Right, So I mean Miles Garrett

220
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 1: a little bit, not not quite all the way back

221
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,439
Speaker 1: from his accent a couple of weeks ago. So that's

222
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 1: kind of what I'm looking at, Like, I know what

223
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 1: Bailey's Appy's a rookie, but at that point Mac Jones

224
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 1: wasn't much farther along the Yeah, even he was. So

225
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,440
Speaker 1: if if their running game is the challenge, their defense

226
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 1: is the opportunity, Yeah, you know, get the But I

227
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,079
Speaker 1: mean it's the same thing on on our side of

228
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 1: the ball, get the get running, and you know, I mean,

229
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:17,839
Speaker 1: I mean it would be the fastest game in the

230
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 1: NFL so far this year. I love it. I mean

231
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,400
Speaker 1: last week's game was quick too. I thought, even with

232
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 1: the injury, it seemed like we were already on the

233
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 1: radio show before four o'clock, which is crazy. But um,

234
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 1: but yeah, I just I really wonder if they're gonna

235
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 1: be able to kind of do the same thing to them.

236
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 1: And I mean it was a weird game because going

237
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 1: back and looking at it this morning, you know, Cleveland

238
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 1: went right down the field on him kind of the

239
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 1: first drive and scored a touchdown and that was it.

240
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 1: Next possession, the Patriots score, then Baker Mayfield throws a pick.

241
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 1: They score again on the very next play after the pick,

242
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 1: and it's fourteen nothing and then before you know it,

243
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 1: at the end of the game, it's forty five to seven.

244
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 1: So can they can they do something similar to what

245
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: they did to the defense there. I mean, of course,

246
00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 1: it's a huge part without hunt um And and Chubb

247
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:02,240
Speaker 1: last time. I mean that was that was huge not

248
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 1: having them, and they basically got away from the run

249
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 1: after that first drive and then they were chasing. So yeah,

250
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 1: the game can unfull. Well, I mean, I think it's

251
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 1: a kind of thing which team gets the lead and

252
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 1: forces the other team out of their comfort zone of

253
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 1: being able to run the ball. Yep, yep, quick start. Yeah,

254
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 1: every team wants to do it, but it's easier said

255
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 1: than done. Yeah. So the other you know, item that

256
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 1: comes out of it is the questions about Mac. Of course,

257
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 1: Bill was noncommittal as to when he thinks Max is

258
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,680
Speaker 1: going to be back, but you know, he kind of

259
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 1: also skirted the question about when Mac is ready, is

260
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 1: he the starter? You know, he didn't give a definitive yes,

261
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 1: And I answered a different question. Yeah. I just remember

262
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 1: back in the day, you know, after that Kansas City

263
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 1: debacco where Brady was basically benched for Garoppolo that night,

264
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 1: and somebody mentioned it in the post game, and yeah,

265
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 1: Bill I didn't want to mention, but Bill just kind

266
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 1: of laughed at him, you know, saying, you know, how

267
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 1: could you even ask that question? That wasn't the same

268
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 1: reaction yea? To me, it is like to me Mac,

269
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 1: when Mac is ready, he'll be the starter. I mean,

270
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 1: it's it's that simple right now. Now. I guess if

271
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 1: for some reason Max's injury got elongated, you know, like

272
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: you know, you know, he tweaked it in practice and

273
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 1: he was at another five weeks, and in those five weeks,

274
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: Zappy is just hot as hell. Okay, yeah, you know,

275
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: I can, I can draw up any hypothetical and not

276
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 1: any scenario, but everything being even match is starting quarterback.

277
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 1: That's in my opinion. Yeah, I know, I know a

278
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 1: lot of Patrios fans don't share that opinion. I'm not

279
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 1: sure why everything He was the shiny new toy last

280
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: year and everybody like Billy, Zappy comes in and you know,

281
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 1: doesn't sink the ship immediately, and everyone's like onto the

282
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: next thing. I don't want to say everyone, some single people,

283
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 1: but I mean I think that the people who are

284
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 1: realistic about this and watch the games and have watched

285
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,040
Speaker 1: Mac Jones, know, like, look go back and look at

286
00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 1: how Mac Jones looked against this Brown's defense last year.

287
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 1: Right now, if Bailey's appy looks like that and he's

288
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 1: throwing you know, dimes up the seam to Kendrick Bourne

289
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,399
Speaker 1: and nice little touch to Hunter Henry coming out, you know,

290
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 1: on the on the up and out like you know.

291
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: I mean, those are the things that Mac Jones is

292
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: capable of that we haven't seen from Bailey's Appy. And

293
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:16,879
Speaker 1: I feel bad because I don't, like, I feel like

294
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:18,440
Speaker 1: you're either one side or the other right now, and

295
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 1: you can't just be like, I'm really happy for what

296
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:22,920
Speaker 1: Zappy has done. See what it did there? Yeah, not

297
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 1: on purpose, um, you know, happy to see what he's done.

298
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:27,360
Speaker 1: But at the same time, I'm not on the illusion

299
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,880
Speaker 1: that this that that all of a sudden he's way

300
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,920
Speaker 1: better than Mac and Mac. But I will say this though,

301
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 1: I do like that Mac has probably feeling a little

302
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 1: bit like knowing how he is. He's here in the talk,

303
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:40,920
Speaker 1: I mean, and it's not true like and the people

304
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 1: who know no. But at the same time, I think, well,

305
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 1: it's it's how he's got to be aware. How does

306
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 1: he handle that heat? Does it make him better like

307
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,919
Speaker 1: it did Brady that year with when they drafted Garoppolo

308
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,159
Speaker 1: and he you know, ended up. I think he did.

309
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 1: It was he MVP that year? I'm not sure, but

310
00:17:56,200 --> 00:18:00,959
Speaker 1: he had an amazing season and you know seasons after that. Um,

311
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: how does he handle it? Does he fold under the

312
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 1: pressure or does he elevate under the pressure. Does he

313
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 1: stop making the mistakes? I think that, you know, when

314
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 1: he gets back, that's that's what I look for. Does

315
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 1: he not make the ill advised you know pass attempts

316
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 1: that we that we saw that were picked off, and

317
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 1: you know, there were too many of those where it's like,

318
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 1: oh God, he threw it right to him, like those

319
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 1: things have to go. And like I said yesterday, I

320
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 1: really do believe though, you know, have with the offense

321
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,360
Speaker 1: having to go through two games without him and having

322
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 1: to get back to fundamentals and you know, make sure

323
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 1: they don't make stupid mistakes. I think Mac comes back

324
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: to a better offense than he left, you know, so

325
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,360
Speaker 1: a more confident one hopefully. Um. You know, we talked

326
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,160
Speaker 1: a little bit out yesterday. I don't I'm not sure.

327
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,680
Speaker 1: I'm not sure exactly how it translates where I still

328
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 1: know how you know, it's a new boy. We could

329
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,159
Speaker 1: say that it's a New Bay back coming back in

330
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 1: and you know, there are elements that I think that

331
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 1: the offense probably feels better about right now than they

332
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 1: did when Mac went out. But well, at the same time,

333
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 1: maybe in protection, what's that? Certainly the protection. Yeah, the

334
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 1: protection's better. That's only, you know, because the protections better

335
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 1: because you're not throwing the ball. Then you're not throwing

336
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 1: it as much. Non there and long really, but you know,

337
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:07,160
Speaker 1: the run blocking, I'm good, you know, so I'm I'm

338
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 1: I'm I'm excited now to get Mac back. I mean,

339
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 1: I want that to happen, obviously, because I'm with Mike.

340
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 1: I don't really think there's much of a comparison between

341
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:22,159
Speaker 1: the two. But I'm just I'm not as like, I

342
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 1: don't think they played any better offensively Sunday than they did,

343
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 1: say in against Baltimore. I don't. I think for what

344
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,920
Speaker 1: they were being asked to do, I think they did. Okay, Yeah,

345
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 1: I would like to do what the coach said when

346
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 1: he was talking about Jacoby Brissett. Moved the ball and

347
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,800
Speaker 1: score points. That's what I want. Yeah, well they didn't.

348
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 1: But is that because of the OFFENSI itself or Zappy? Yeah? Both, Well,

349
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 1: what they asked Zappy to do. Yeah, now, I believe

350
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 1: they asked Zappy to do that because that's all they

351
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,399
Speaker 1: believe that he can do. Right now. No, that's no

352
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 1: shot at him. No, he's been in the league for

353
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 1: twenty minutes, right, So, like you're gonna ask him to

354
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,960
Speaker 1: hand the ball off, and like Mike said, you do

355
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 1: not want to ask him to drop back on third

356
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 1: and ten and starts singing in around the yard. That's

357
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 1: not going to work. They are asking Mac Jones to

358
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 1: do that, that's right. They're not afraid to throw the

359
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,960
Speaker 1: ball on third and twelve with Mac Jones, which is

360
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,880
Speaker 1: why you're getting some mistakes, that's right. I also think

361
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:22,959
Speaker 1: the mistakes have been a little bit, a little bit,

362
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,640
Speaker 1: not a lot, a little bit overblown like turnover Machine.

363
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 1: I think that's a little harsh on Mac. And you

364
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,399
Speaker 1: guys know that I'm not completely sold that Mac is

365
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 1: the be all end all right, but I've heard more

366
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: comments in the last week and a half negatively about

367
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:42,199
Speaker 1: Mac than I've heard in the previous year plus. Oh,

368
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 1: I agree, and he didn't like he hasn't played the

369
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,359
Speaker 1: Boo birds are out, but he hasn't played. Yeah, like

370
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:51,239
Speaker 1: the negativity came after he stopped playing. Oh yeah, as

371
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,480
Speaker 1: soon as they saw somebody you know come in and play.

372
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 1: I just can't Yeah, exactly, I can't even get into

373
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 1: it because it's not even it's not even an apples

374
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 1: to apples comparison. You know, they're not being asked to

375
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 1: do the same thing. You know, So, like you said, dudes,

376
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 1: maybe in this game they open it up a little bit.

377
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 1: I don't know, but let's remember what Mac did to

378
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 1: this defense last year. Yeah, you know, I mean probably,

379
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's best game, but but definitely

380
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:21,639
Speaker 1: some of his best throws. It's If it wasn't his

381
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 1: best game, it was one of the top three, I

382
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:25,720
Speaker 1: think it was his best game. I think he made

383
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:30,800
Speaker 1: more throws that were impressive in that game than in

384
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,399
Speaker 1: any other. That more that I would say, like looking

385
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 1: back at the game, plays that stuck out in my

386
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 1: mind over the course of the season, like remembering that

387
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 1: Burn throw, remembering that Hunter Henry throw, like memorable strides.

388
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 1: It was so easy. It looked so easy that game.

389
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I was like the born one and he

390
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 1: just threw up between two guys. It was like, what

391
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,399
Speaker 1: is going on right now? They're just they're dealing. So

392
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 1: you know, I we'll see, We'll see what he's able

393
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 1: to do. And you know, is is Stevenson able to

394
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 1: get going or you know, do they they just sell

395
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 1: out to stop Stevenson? And you know, I think it's

396
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 1: worth wondering too, or the Patriots can be able to

397
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: get complimentary performance from one of their other running backs.

398
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 1: And I actually another little nugget I caught Brown's last

399
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:14,399
Speaker 1: year was the last time J J. Taylor actually played

400
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 1: like six carries for like eleven yards. But that was

401
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 1: the last game action that JJ Taylor interressing. I did

402
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,440
Speaker 1: not know them. So maybe maybe it's lining up again

403
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:24,560
Speaker 1: for him to get back out there. I think a chance.

404
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 1: I think they need some complimentary play. I don't I

405
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 1: struggle imagining a game plan where it's just Romander Stevenson

406
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,720
Speaker 1: was a whistle campy, but that's like what is it

407
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,480
Speaker 1: Harris or Pierre Strong too? You know, yeah, Like, well,

408
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,120
Speaker 1: I don't know, like they're going to run the ball, yeah,

409
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 1: Like I think even if Matt comes back and plays,

410
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,879
Speaker 1: they're going to run the ball predominantly. This is a

411
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,720
Speaker 1: bad run defense. Yeah, so I think that part of

412
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 1: it lines up perfectly for what you need because they're

413
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,440
Speaker 1: so bad against the run back to back weeks. Um,

414
00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:00,920
Speaker 1: did you guys talk about the Jeremy Fowler comment? No? All, Um,

415
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 1: he on ESPN he had a thing, small little item

416
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,680
Speaker 1: buried in his game recaps, I guess, and he just

417
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 1: said that Mac has a decent chance to play. I

418
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 1: think was the word this week, and he it was.

419
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:21,919
Speaker 1: He made it even last week. He made it interesting, Um,

420
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,880
Speaker 1: whether or I was gonna play, which I'm just kind

421
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:27,359
Speaker 1: of stating that I want to look it up so

422
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: I can I can write it perfectly. I'm gonna state

423
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 1: the facts or what he said, and then I'll you know,

424
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 1: I'll tell you necessarily what I think of the report itself. Um,

425
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 1: I'm not necessarily sure. I look at it the same way. Um,

426
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:46,720
Speaker 1: But do you think he has I mean, I said

427
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,119
Speaker 1: a foregone conclusion that he doesn't play this week? What

428
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,879
Speaker 1: do you guys think? I'm not quite there yet, but

429
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 1: I based on what I saw of him at practiced

430
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: last Friday, like I still think it's It's like it

431
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:02,440
Speaker 1: wasn't he said he made it interesting last week. It

432
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:06,439
Speaker 1: wasn't close last week. Like anybody that watched these videos

433
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 1: that they're showing now on the Sports Hub. It thinks

434
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:12,360
Speaker 1: that guy was remotely close to playing in an NFL game.

435
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 1: I don't. I mean, I suppose guys have played worse

436
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,479
Speaker 1: than that, but I don't see why you would want

437
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 1: a guy playing looking like that. Right, Paul, I found

438
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 1: has a decent chance to play. Right, He told his

439
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,440
Speaker 1: progressed and even made last week's decision to go with

440
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 1: Bailey Zappy interesting, Jones is dealing with a high ankle sprain.

441
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah. If Jones is healthy, he's the quarterback.

442
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 1: Zappy hours agree. Yeah, listen, I give him a chance

443
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 1: to play this week. But that's good because that's that's

444
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,119
Speaker 1: exactly the words. So I'm glad that that Alex found that.

445
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 1: I will before I say he's got no shot or

446
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 1: he's definitely playing, I'll reserve judgment when Evan comes in.

447
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 1: We'll see what he looks like today. We'll get the

448
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 1: pictures today and then, but we're not going to know.

449
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 1: I don't think he'll play this week. Yeah, but I

450
00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 1: don't know. You could watch him on the practice field

451
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 1: and I'm like, wow, he looks like a thousand times

452
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,879
Speaker 1: better than he did last week. I also find it interesting,

453
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 1: and this is no why would you show that the

454
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,720
Speaker 1: media is there. This is no disrespect to it because

455
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 1: if he's trying to get ready to play, you're trying

456
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 1: to get ready to play, but you're not gonna limp. No,

457
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 1: I know, but you don't have to limp. But he

458
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,680
Speaker 1: didn't he you know, like, we're not going to know

459
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 1: from what the media sees whether he's ready. No, I

460
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,400
Speaker 1: want to see him moving. Okay, last week he couldn't move. Yeah,

461
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 1: he looked like he I think Mike used the term

462
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,399
Speaker 1: winced as he threw when he landed, like almost like

463
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,400
Speaker 1: he was wincing. He just he doesn't want to push

464
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,359
Speaker 1: off on the balls of his feet, on his feet.

465
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 1: If I see that again, I'm gonna say he's not playing.

466
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:39,399
Speaker 1: But if I see him bouncing around a little bit

467
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,720
Speaker 1: more and not looking like he's favoring it, then maybe

468
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 1: I'll say, well, what if they tell him don't bounce around?

469
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 1: It's the media's card. I'm serious. It's down to that level,

470
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:53,360
Speaker 1: like he's either going to play. But if if he's

471
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 1: gonna play, you gotta let him try to get ready. No,

472
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,679
Speaker 1: but if you're planning for Zappi or Hoyer much difference.

473
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,640
Speaker 1: But if you're planning for Mac or Zappy, I think

474
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,359
Speaker 1: there's a big difference in how you go about planning

475
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,480
Speaker 1: for that game. I mean, I think either way you're ready,

476
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 1: You're ready for the run, and it's just a question

477
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,240
Speaker 1: how much you're gonna really feel threatened by the potential

478
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 1: of the deep pass. I think that for me would

479
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 1: be the kind of key turning point of how you

480
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,959
Speaker 1: know how much deep coverage are we gonna need, especially

481
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:21,920
Speaker 1: Thornton's getting into that. To me, it's just more about

482
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,680
Speaker 1: the volume. They'll throw the ball more often with Mac

483
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:26,480
Speaker 1: Jones than they will would Zappy. I don't think there

484
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:28,200
Speaker 1: was a whole lot of difference in what they asked.

485
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 1: What about fifty fifty balls and stretch zone. I thought

486
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: they threw a handful of fifty fifty balls last week

487
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,399
Speaker 1: and they resulted in penalties against the other team they

488
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 1: Like I said this yesterday, that's true. That was part

489
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 1: of their offense. Like I know, everybody says, did you

490
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,240
Speaker 1: see Zappy put the ball in Harm's way? Did Yeah?

491
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:45,720
Speaker 1: I actually I saw him throw three that I could

492
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 1: think of off the top of my head. Yeah, it's true,

493
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 1: two to Parker and one to Thornton. Yeah, and two

494
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 1: of them resulted in penalties. Yeah. I mean, I'm not

495
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,680
Speaker 1: telling you that we're going to design this so get

496
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:57,639
Speaker 1: a penalty on this play. But they did throw a

497
00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,040
Speaker 1: couple of fifty fifties. They did none. All three of

498
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,920
Speaker 1: those guys were covered. They were not open. No, that's true.

499
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 1: And he just threw the ball up and he gave

500
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,960
Speaker 1: his guy a chance to make a play, right, Yep, yep,

501
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 1: that's true. Five five Pats five hundred is the a

502
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,920
Speaker 1: sticket hut line web radio at Patriots dot com. Is

503
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 1: the email address A small transaction today? Months and again. Yeah,

504
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,320
Speaker 1: this guy's gone back and forth between the Dolphins like

505
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,600
Speaker 1: three times, like he was here, then he was there,

506
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:24,719
Speaker 1: then he was here, then he was there, and now

507
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 1: he was back here again. There were months that run

508
00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,359
Speaker 1: months and uh some more. Linebacker death. I mean, I

509
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: I shudder to think that this might have anything to

510
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 1: do with the defense. I don't want to think that

511
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 1: at all. I just think this is so please some

512
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:39,680
Speaker 1: sort of special teams move, maybe for like the Harvey

513
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,760
Speaker 1: Longie of at all the Union extra special teams linebacker. Um,

514
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 1: but if he's playing linebacker snaps. Okay, so let's look

515
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 1: at it. You know, it could be just he was available,

516
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,919
Speaker 1: we bring him back, you know whatever. But what if

517
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:52,840
Speaker 1: it is a special teams thing and they're looking at

518
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 1: the coverage and like we need to infuse a little

519
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 1: bit something into this coverage team. I mean it's possible.

520
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:01,119
Speaker 1: I mean, dug Dugger kind of claimed responsibility on that

521
00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:06,200
Speaker 1: long return get out. Yeah yeah, even special teams nonsense.

522
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 1: Remember I said, I said that yesterday it looked like

523
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,920
Speaker 1: Dugger got caught inside on play. Yeah. Yeah, he he

524
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 1: confirmed that. Wow. I usually don't. I usually get I

525
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,680
Speaker 1: usually get my diet pepsi's during special team sport. But

526
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,199
Speaker 1: you know, maybe it's taking those guys out. I mean

527
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 1: they've got their plates full anyways. Yeah, maybe it's like,

528
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 1: all right, let's get Duggar out of there. You know,

529
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:27,320
Speaker 1: he's got enough to do on defense and we'll bring

530
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,280
Speaker 1: somebody else in. I don't want Dugger off of those

531
00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 1: I think he's one of the best tacklers on the team.

532
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,920
Speaker 1: Yeah he is. I want him out there. He needs

533
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 1: a message stuff blowing unless he gets pinned inside. Yeah,

534
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, anybody can make a mistake. Mistakes

535
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 1: aren't acceptable, hear, Paul. It's a little different when a

536
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 1: frontline player makes a mistake, as opposed to maybe Hobby

537
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 1: LONGI was involved in some of those earlier. And that's

538
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 1: all he's there for, right, you know, And I'm not

539
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 1: saying that that's what happened for all I know, he

540
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,520
Speaker 1: was fine and they just decided to move on. You

541
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 1: have one job, right, yeah, little little depth, but I'm

542
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 1: not sure what exactly. So that fiels the practice squad though, right,

543
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 1: that does for the current moment, which I think a

544
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 1: lot of people thought, yeah, little Jordan would would land back.

545
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 1: That was where I was. Yeah, he's gone, Yeah did

546
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:14,360
Speaker 1: he get did he get signed? I don't know. We're

547
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 1: kind of waiting to see. Oh yeah he's still out there,

548
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 1: but he's been released, released him off the roster. But

549
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people just assumed he would

550
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 1: resign with the practice squad, okay, and then they filled

551
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 1: the practice squad spot with Ken, So now it's easy

552
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 1: to create another spot. I'm not saying, but he's out there.

553
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 1: Anyone can sign, can sign him right now? Yeah, I mean,

554
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 1: you know, maybe they promote JJ or Kevin Harris, one

555
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:37,160
Speaker 1: of those two up to the active roster and then

556
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 1: they've got another spot. Rights, So was there an opening

557
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 1: on the fifty three right now? But no, there I

558
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: don't think there should be, not at the moment. Okay,

559
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 1: So they'd have to do another movement in order to

560
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 1: get bring somebody up. Haven't checked my numbers, Yeah, okay, no,

561
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,080
Speaker 1: we'll see. I mean they're going to have to bring

562
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 1: at least one, if not two running back acts up. Yeah,

563
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 1: it is an open spot. There is no one spot

564
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 1: right okay, okay on the roster. Yeah, yes, yeah, okay,

565
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 1: so maybe Kevin Harris time, perhaps J J. Taylor as

566
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 1: long as we have more than one active running back

567
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 1: this time. I mean, whoever it is is kind of

568
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 1: stepping into a favorable situation. Like I mean, if you're

569
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 1: a Pierre Strong or Kevin Harris in your first game,

570
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 1: you're you know, you know, we got Ramondre to take

571
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 1: the bulk of it, but you're gonna get some softened

572
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 1: up defense. Yes, you're going up against I mean, the

573
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 1: keying on you. But at the same time, there there

574
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 1: could be some opportunities for you know, a new guy

575
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 1: to kind of have a nice game and maybe stand

576
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 1: out well. Listen, I'm excited about this game in you know,

577
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:47,200
Speaker 1: can the Patriots defense once again rise up and stop

578
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 1: a team that's very high up in the rankings, you know,

579
00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 1: when they run the ball, you know, and if we

580
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 1: if you can hold them to around one hundred yards

581
00:30:55,240 --> 00:31:01,200
Speaker 1: or something, that's a job well done. Yeah, excellent performance. Yeah.

582
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 1: I mean, assuming the game doesn't get out of hand. Yeah,

583
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 1: and they have to pass. Yeah, if they if they have,

584
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 1: if they were allowed to run for four quarters and

585
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 1: they only get one hundred yards, that's a good job

586
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 1: by the run defense. Yeah. Yeah, I mean that's about

587
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 1: half away. It's the other thing. It's like, you know,

588
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 1: everybody's like, well they only get up twenty seven to

589
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 1: green bait while they average sixteen. Yeah, like that's not good.

590
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:23,920
Speaker 1: Just like, yeah, one hundred yards might not sound great defensive,

591
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:27,239
Speaker 1: but they average two hundreds, So that's unbelievable, right, I mean,

592
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 1: if they stop them to one hundred yards, that would

593
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 1: be a really good effort. The game that scares me

594
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 1: is the Colts game from last year, because I think

595
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 1: that's you know, not a great quarterback, but Jonathan Taylor

596
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 1: and a ground game that kind of just made it.

597
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 1: That's true, they were kind of powerless to counter that one.

598
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 1: So that's the concern. But I I don't know. I

599
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 1: feel pretty confident about this game. We're not coming off

600
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:49,600
Speaker 1: a bye this year. Yeah. And it's not indoors tonight,

601
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:51,920
Speaker 1: you know, it's always they're not pumping in. They turn

602
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 1: the heat in and the COVID and the music, right heat,

603
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:58,520
Speaker 1: COVID music. Yep, all right, A five five Pats five

604
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,040
Speaker 1: hundred is the A ticket hut line web radio at

605
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 1: Patriots dot com is the email address anything around the NFL,

606
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 1: and we need to talk about I'm just seeing uh

607
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 1: still the Adams thing is Adam slingering out there Kansas

608
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 1: City him. The more I watch it, the more the

609
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:16,880
Speaker 1: guy I think God exactly what he wanted. I think

610
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 1: he walked in front of him on purpose and kind of.

611
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,440
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't be paid, you can't shove him

612
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:24,560
Speaker 1: and knock him over. He's gonna get at the very least,

613
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,560
Speaker 1: he's gonna get heavily fined. Yeah, he could get suspended.

614
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 1: Do you think he do you think the guy who

615
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 1: gets pushed gets some money out of out of him?

616
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,960
Speaker 1: I hope not. I know he's like that seems like

617
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 1: a calculated thing if mister Duggan from the Brady Bunch. No,

618
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 1: I'm not saying it definitely was watched in front of

619
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:46,720
Speaker 1: him on purpose. I put my that's that's my opinion

620
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 1: of it. I think, well, I don't know. I think

621
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 1: the guy had his head down and yeah, yeah, and

622
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,959
Speaker 1: he knew he was there down on purpose. He definitely

623
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 1: wanted to jump in front to get him, but I

624
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 1: don't think he realized how close he was to him. Yeah,

625
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 1: and then he looked up in and Adam shoved. I

626
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 1: think he put his head down on purpose. Yeah, that

627
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 1: willfully ignorant. What is the way I would describe it

628
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 1: was he had to actively think about it. Wasn't it

629
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: wasn't cool, but he had no idea he was there

630
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:18,440
Speaker 1: until he hit him. He had his head I mean,

631
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 1: Adams had his head down and the guy get up

632
00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 1: and he just pushed him. I totally agree with Alex.

633
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 1: You can't just push the guy down. It was ridiculous.

634
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:31,360
Speaker 1: It was a ridiculous reaction. Yeah, so that's going on. Yeah,

635
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,720
Speaker 1: it sounds like Dak's going to be be back potentially,

636
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 1: um Skylar Skylar is gonna start for for them. Yeah,

637
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 1: sounds like Tyreek is gonna be okay. Interesting times in

638
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:45,600
Speaker 1: the AFC. I don't really understand the whole thing in Miami.

639
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 1: I don't really understand what's going on. He didn't have

640
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:50,280
Speaker 1: a concussion, but he's still in concussion protocol, Like, I

641
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:53,320
Speaker 1: don't understand that. Yeah, I think they're getting royally screwed,

642
00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:56,080
Speaker 1: the Dolphins. They probably has the post of children for

643
00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 1: concussion and that's what happened. Yeah, yeah, all right, let's

644
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 1: get off. The quote that's getting is the one that

645
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,279
Speaker 1: really stuck out to me was the totally independent quote

646
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 1: from Bill. Did you guys say too that? Really? No?

647
00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:13,920
Speaker 1: The totally independent what you know? Does Zappy's performance have

648
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,920
Speaker 1: anything to do with you know, does that allow you

649
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 1: more time to wait before Mac? And he said that

650
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,399
Speaker 1: they're totally independent. That tells me when Max, when Mack

651
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,680
Speaker 1: is healthy, he will play regardless. I wish he would

652
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 1: just say it. Um, all right, let's get to the phones.

653
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:33,759
Speaker 1: Patty's an agawam. What's up? Patty? Hey, sorry about to

654
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,799
Speaker 1: cut out yesterday. Guys. Um, I know there's a lot

655
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:38,840
Speaker 1: of love for that be going on, but took me

656
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:43,000
Speaker 1: in camp McLennan. Um, so, I just had sort of

657
00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 1: a big broad question. I looked at the schedule today

658
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,320
Speaker 1: and there's there's a couple of things that we're in

659
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:53,359
Speaker 1: the offensively and the two biggest thing we saw him

660
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:55,840
Speaker 1: was Mack was in there and when Bailey's Appy was

661
00:34:55,880 --> 00:35:00,600
Speaker 1: in there. Do you think, um, there's enough talent found

662
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 1: this team to sort of but few what we saw

663
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:08,400
Speaker 1: last year, like towards the you know, the final stretch

664
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:10,280
Speaker 1: of the year where they would get out the slow start.

665
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 1: Do you think if if they can't clean up the

666
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:17,879
Speaker 1: issues that they're having on third down and more specifically

667
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:20,080
Speaker 1: in the red zone, that are we are we going

668
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:21,719
Speaker 1: to be able to win some of these games down

669
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:25,680
Speaker 1: the stretch. I mean, I think it's a lot like

670
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:29,440
Speaker 1: last year. I think you're totally right about the starts, um,

671
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 1: And that's what I'm waiting for is when can this

672
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:34,440
Speaker 1: team get over the hump? And you know, you're right,

673
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,239
Speaker 1: they don't have, you know, all the dripping with talent

674
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 1: a lot of the teams do. But I think they're

675
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 1: good enough. It's just you know, it's just tough. I

676
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 1: haven't seen them beat a real good team or as

677
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:47,320
Speaker 1: kind of we were talking about the last show in

678
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:50,440
Speaker 1: the postgame just getting behind and having like the adversity

679
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:52,279
Speaker 1: and thinking like, man, they are going to lose today,

680
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,319
Speaker 1: and then have them turn it around and pull it out.

681
00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 1: Like I just think that's a sign of a a

682
00:35:56,840 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 1: young team that's starting to grow. I'd even just to

683
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 1: see them get off to a good start against a

684
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:03,879
Speaker 1: good team and see, you know, even when they're even

685
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:10,319
Speaker 1: in favorable conditions against a good team, how does it look? Right? Yeah,

686
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:12,560
Speaker 1: And I'll even take like it. I'll even take a

687
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 1: cheap win over a team like Buffalow or Miami Is

688
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:17,480
Speaker 1: down the stretch of the year. I mean, I know

689
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:19,719
Speaker 1: last year's Buffalo game was kind of the cheap win

690
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: too because of the conditions. But I mean, I just

691
00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:25,879
Speaker 1: want to see the team makes the playoffs again more

692
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 1: than anything. I just I mean, I don't know how

693
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:31,239
Speaker 1: you like look around the league of what's going on

694
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:33,040
Speaker 1: and you look at like the Raiders or you know,

695
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,640
Speaker 1: one and four and I'll give you another one, okay,

696
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 1: right there? For standings, twenty of the thirty two teams

697
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,320
Speaker 1: are either three and two or two and three, and

698
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:47,680
Speaker 1: that includes the Culture or two two and one. Twenty

699
00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:51,239
Speaker 1: out of thirty two teams are thoroughly average. Yeah, so

700
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 1: it's it's there for them. I just they've got to

701
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:55,880
Speaker 1: they've got to be able to beat the good teams.

702
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:57,920
Speaker 1: Otherwise I feel like it's it's gonna be similar to

703
00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,799
Speaker 1: last year. They're gonna make a push. They'll probably want

704
00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 1: a good chunk of games here in the middle, and

705
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 1: then you know, those games against Buffalo and a lot

706
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,080
Speaker 1: of these games are gonna come down to to you

707
00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:09,800
Speaker 1: a point, Mike, you know. Okay, so it's Cleveland, it's Chicago,

708
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 1: it's the Jets. I think that most people think that

709
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:18,680
Speaker 1: the Patriots should win most, if not all, of those games. Okay,

710
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 1: I think this will be the toughest one out of

711
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 1: the ones in that stretch Cleveland. Um, but then it's

712
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:29,320
Speaker 1: gonna come down to you know, you play Minnesota, who's available,

713
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 1: who's available for you, who's available for them? You know, Arizona,

714
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:37,839
Speaker 1: same thing, the Raiders, same thing. You know, Like, if

715
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:41,080
Speaker 1: everybody's healthy and you go into it, those games can

716
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:43,920
Speaker 1: go like Fred's. Those are fred Coin flip games. Those

717
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:48,320
Speaker 1: can go either way. But if you know DeVante Adams

718
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 1: is down, you probably should win that game. Conversely, if

719
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,200
Speaker 1: you know Mac Jones is down again and you have

720
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:58,799
Speaker 1: to play with you with Zappy, You're probably gonna lose

721
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:01,799
Speaker 1: that game, you know, Like that's I think, what are

722
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:05,759
Speaker 1: you looking at for those games? You know? Cincinnati another

723
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 1: one of those games. If they're all healthy, you're going

724
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 1: to be a hard press to win that game. Yep,

725
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:15,399
Speaker 1: let's go to Matt in Ohio. What's up, Matt? Hey?

Speaker 1: this after Yeah, Yeah, I love it, love it. Great job. Um.

757
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:06,759
Speaker 1: But for the the last email on the yes on

758
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:11,400
Speaker 1: yesterday's show was you guys were talking about doing the

759
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:16,239
Speaker 1: video podcast? Yeah, and I don't. I mean it sets

760
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:18,319
Speaker 1: up to you guys. I don't really I thought about

761
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:22,440
Speaker 1: it a little bit. The problem with the video for

762
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:25,520
Speaker 1: when it's live is, uh, when I try and listen

763
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:28,040
Speaker 1: during the day, I can't lock my phone because I'm

764
00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:30,399
Speaker 1: working at the same time as I listened. So that's

765
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:33,000
Speaker 1: the only that's my only like ding against that. But

766
00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 1: I've obviously just listened to it on Spotify after it downloads.

767
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 1: But um, but I would love would be if Paul

768
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:44,319
Speaker 1: and Douce do actually game broadcast. That would be fantastic

769
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:49,840
Speaker 1: an alternate game broadcast. Yeah, just do the just do

770
00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,839
Speaker 1: the Manning Manning cast, do you guys, just do Paul

771
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:56,880
Speaker 1: dou Yeah, we we we would do something like that seriously,

772
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:01,359
Speaker 1: but we're not allowed to. Yeah. The league, Yeah, Fred,

773
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:04,520
Speaker 1: Fred has thought about that. Fred and I year back

774
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 1: with Andy, like and all I could think of is

775
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:10,640
Speaker 1: the Mystery Science Theater, the alien. Well, that works well

776
00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:12,880
Speaker 1: for you. You got the smaller head the et you know.

777
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:15,839
Speaker 1: It's just like Andy would block the screen and it's

778
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:22,960
Speaker 1: like spot, Well, we appreciate it, Matt, keep listening getting

779
00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:29,920
Speaker 1: some nice appreciate that, some delightful callership. Bill's in Oklahoma, family, Hey, Bill, family,

780
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:32,759
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, how are ya doing good? Good? Thank

781
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 1: you good. I have a couple of questions for you guys.

782
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:42,439
Speaker 1: Um is I know again? Coach was very ambiguous about

783
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 1: Max's return, and I was looking at the schedule for

784
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:49,359
Speaker 1: the next four weeks. What are the chances they would

785
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:53,200
Speaker 1: leave him out until after the bye? Is he healthy?

786
00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 1: How do we know? Yeah? I think my point is

787
00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 1: if he's hell, he's coming back. Yeah. If he's not,

788
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:04,200
Speaker 1: and he'll be out to the body, yeah. The only reason,

789
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 1: and I agree with Paul, the only reason they would

790
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,200
Speaker 1: hold him out is he's not one hundred percent. And

791
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 1: that's why I fixated on that quote. They're totally independent

792
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:14,680
Speaker 1: what happens in the games. They're not going to rush

793
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:18,480
Speaker 1: him back if they lose Sunday, if he's ready to

794
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:22,000
Speaker 1: go and play the following week, he'll he'll play whin

795
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:24,920
Speaker 1: or lose Sunday. I honestly believe that. I don't think

796
00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,319
Speaker 1: that Bill will rush him back. Now. I'm not telling

797
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:30,680
Speaker 1: you he's not coming back until he's one hundred percent. Yeah,

798
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:33,759
Speaker 1: till he will come back before he's completely what he

799
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,480
Speaker 1: can do everything he needs to do right and which

800
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:40,800
Speaker 1: includes running, you know, away from pressure. Then when he

801
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,160
Speaker 1: can do that, he should play and he will play,

802
00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,880
Speaker 1: you know, Okay, Yeah, that's what I mean. That's my feeling,

803
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:49,840
Speaker 1: and I agree with Paul, but that's just our opinion, right,

804
00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:53,640
Speaker 1: I don't know what Bill's thinking. Yeah, it's the high

805
00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:56,799
Speaker 1: ankle spraining. You just you just cannot risk him. I mean,

806
00:42:57,160 --> 00:42:59,160
Speaker 1: knowing how close to the ads we are on so

807
00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 1: many different fa to the game, I would air on

808
00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:05,000
Speaker 1: the side of caution because if you reinjure that high

809
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:08,840
Speaker 1: ankle sprain, history says that it's going to be an

810
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 1: extended amount, including potentially the season. So I agree that

811
00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 1: I agree with you saying not rushing name back. But

812
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 1: if he's ready, he's ready. But and I trust the doctors,

813
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:19,600
Speaker 1: but I also know there's a fine line of going.

814
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 1: I know he's very, very he's a strong guy and

815
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:27,160
Speaker 1: he wants to play, but at the same time, going,

816
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,759
Speaker 1: you tweaked this. It could be multiple weeks again, Bill's right, Yeah,

817
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:32,719
Speaker 1: I mean, I do think it's a fine line that

818
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,320
Speaker 1: you walk there, Yeah, trying to determine it. And I

819
00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:38,520
Speaker 1: know Mac is pushing, right, that's I see no other

820
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,560
Speaker 1: reason why he'd been out in the practice field the

821
00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:43,520
Speaker 1: last two weeks. He wants to get out there. That's

822
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:47,279
Speaker 1: gotta be Mac. Yeah, speaking about there, guess who just

823
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:52,480
Speaker 1: walked in? Terrible bighead? What's up? Andy? Got time to kill?

824
00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:56,399
Speaker 1: I guess? Uh yeah, Unfortunately like four hours until Walker room.

825
00:43:56,480 --> 00:44:01,240
Speaker 1: You look like you don't like the City edition stuff.

826
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 1: Oh that's what it is. Evolution of the light cut

827
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:08,360
Speaker 1: off are phenomenal. Bill started that all. Then he I

828
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:13,480
Speaker 1: prefer to go to James Devlin. Such a bus So

829
00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:16,719
Speaker 1: what do we got any in your opinion? Oh? Right?

830
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:18,759
Speaker 1: Can I ask you? Did you hit it? Bill? Yeah?

831
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 1: And I have a question for Fred Kersch. Why does

832
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:23,439
Speaker 1: he refuse to say Mac Jones is our quarterback? That's

833
00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,399
Speaker 1: that's what I had the same. Is it just because

834
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:28,920
Speaker 1: he's young and not a stat like or is it

835
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,799
Speaker 1: legitimate that I don't know. We'll see when he gets

836
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 1: back out there. Fred, he's with you. It's weird, right,

837
00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:39,080
Speaker 1: You guys were often in lockstep first time ever? Right?

838
00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:42,080
Speaker 1: It really we're both lunatics, but we're never in locks

839
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:44,799
Speaker 1: like both Paul and I believe when Mac is ready,

840
00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:47,040
Speaker 1: he will come back and play. That's what I think

841
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:49,080
Speaker 1: with my head. So when I listen to Right and

842
00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:51,719
Speaker 1: I wish just say that, Yeah, just say I feel

843
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:55,440
Speaker 1: like the question before about the Totally Independent, he was

844
00:44:55,480 --> 00:44:57,919
Speaker 1: asked if, yeah, I don't bla his performance. I don't

845
00:44:57,920 --> 00:44:59,560
Speaker 1: believe it's anything to do it, and he says that

846
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:02,239
Speaker 1: the totally Independent that tells me that Bill is saying

847
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:06,640
Speaker 1: when Mac is healthy, he will play. We can't make

848
00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:09,480
Speaker 1: that determination now because he's not healthy. I I kind

849
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:11,759
Speaker 1: of read into that that he ain't playing this week either. Well,

850
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:13,520
Speaker 1: he's not playing this week. I'm so sick of Jeremy

851
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:15,680
Speaker 1: Fowler's reports at all. He's pushing it. He could have

852
00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:18,439
Speaker 1: played last week. No, I saw the video that couldn't move.

853
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:20,680
Speaker 1: That's what I think Bill should be fired if he

854
00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:22,879
Speaker 1: played him last week. That's my opinion that you're putting

855
00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:25,439
Speaker 1: a guy out there and get hurt. Okay, um, see,

856
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:27,120
Speaker 1: this is why they don't like him. He gets so

857
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 1: bombastic like Bill should have been fired last week. You

858
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:35,160
Speaker 1: agreed with him? Me, I literally texted you you agreed

859
00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:39,520
Speaker 1: with and I think I texted them back. Yep, he

860
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 1: freaking agrees um. And And also Mike Reeses has reported

861
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:46,560
Speaker 1: that he I forgot how he worded it. In such

862
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:49,840
Speaker 1: a Mike Reess way, like the truth that it is.

863
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:53,880
Speaker 1: My understanding of the truth is that might possibly indicate

864
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:56,880
Speaker 1: that he's fifty to sixty percent through his rehab. Okay,

865
00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:01,080
Speaker 1: so yeah, he's only way he's not ready yet. I'm

866
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 1: not putting a guy out there that's half ready now.

867
00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:04,680
Speaker 1: But don't you feel like he's a guy that's like,

868
00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:07,600
Speaker 1: I'm ready, I'm ready. Yeah, that's what I said. He

869
00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:10,319
Speaker 1: was walking in. I think he's pushed it. He might

870
00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:12,240
Speaker 1: be ready if he had gotten the surgery, but he didn't.

871
00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:15,440
Speaker 1: I think he should be reconsidering that because now he goes, oh,

872
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:17,480
Speaker 1: that guy's pretty good and Bill. Bill's not saying it's

873
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:19,560
Speaker 1: my job. Is there any way he can get surgery now?

874
00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:22,640
Speaker 1: I mean he's already, that's I mean, could I guess?

875
00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:27,360
Speaker 1: Because it protects you, the biggest advantage to the surgery

876
00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:29,200
Speaker 1: is it does not allow you to recover. From talking

877
00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:31,600
Speaker 1: about the tight tight rope surgery, Yeah, it doesn't allow

878
00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:33,600
Speaker 1: you to recover faster. It allows you to go back

879
00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:38,080
Speaker 1: out there faster without risk of further or increased damage. Okay,

880
00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:40,000
Speaker 1: do you know this for a fact. The second part

881
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:42,520
Speaker 1: of it, because the first part is I've been aware

882
00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:45,160
Speaker 1: of I know this as a fact as much as

883
00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,400
Speaker 1: an orthopedic told me that. Okay, I mean, I'm not

884
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:50,600
Speaker 1: an orthopedic, as Bill, I'm not a doctor. Did you

885
00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:52,880
Speaker 1: talk to Eric? Did you call Eric to get to

886
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:55,480
Speaker 1: talk to a smart person? So did? Who was way

887
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 1: above my head? And when he kept talking, he kept

888
00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:58,879
Speaker 1: going you get it? And I go yeah, yeah, yeah,

889
00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:02,279
Speaker 1: sure yeah, And I was like what I picked up

890
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:04,560
Speaker 1: the Eric now works as a PR guy at a

891
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:06,960
Speaker 1: Rhode Island hospital, Right, did you I think I told you?

892
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 1: I think you did tell me that. Isn't that a

893
00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:12,440
Speaker 1: great story anyway for the fans for the fans. The

894
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:15,960
Speaker 1: first Eric's first week, Mark Daniels was doing some research

895
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:18,719
Speaker 1: on the on the on the ankle sprain and who

896
00:47:18,840 --> 00:47:24,480
Speaker 1: who who? Who? Did you get? You didn't know everyone

897
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:27,759
Speaker 1: that Eric arranged the Eric arranged the interview with the

898
00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:31,600
Speaker 1: specialists PR. Now, yeah, I'm not no, it's a hospital

899
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 1: PR like, isn't it like successful surgery? You know for

900
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:38,879
Speaker 1: the update? But exactly that. It's communications. You're getting people

901
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,359
Speaker 1: and putting people together the people that that they need

902
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:43,000
Speaker 1: to Just you don't call up the hospital and say

903
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:44,839
Speaker 1: can I talk to doctor James Andrews. It just must

904
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:47,880
Speaker 1: have been an epic New Harumph of of epic proportions.

905
00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:50,520
Speaker 1: You know. It's just like I can't get away from these.

906
00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:55,080
Speaker 1: I'm judging Andy, that you're you're not on the Zappie bandwagon,

907
00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:59,160
Speaker 1: that that, oh, he could be better than Mac. I mean,

908
00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:01,200
Speaker 1: I don't totally rule it out. Like I did get

909
00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:02,880
Speaker 1: into a fight with Christian the other day because he

910
00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:05,560
Speaker 1: said zero zero chance, and I'm like, well, it's not zero.

911
00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:08,440
Speaker 1: I don't think it is. I think it's unlikely. And

912
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:10,439
Speaker 1: I gave him one of those like ya six percent

913
00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:13,600
Speaker 1: chance seven whatever, A very low that right there, That

914
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:19,239
Speaker 1: fifteen second SoundBite by Andy encapsulates pfw we PU. He

915
00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:22,680
Speaker 1: agreed with with Christian, but I still found a way

916
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:24,160
Speaker 1: to get in an argument. And I think that's why

917
00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:25,759
Speaker 1: Christian got so mad. He goes, if I could turn

918
00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:28,399
Speaker 1: your money. He was screaming at me like he wanted

919
00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:31,840
Speaker 1: to kick. He was sitting in your chair, Fred, it

920
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:33,520
Speaker 1: was for Patriots money. I thought he was coming across

921
00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:36,000
Speaker 1: the table. He was sweating by. And then we go

922
00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:37,320
Speaker 1: to break and he goes, I don't know why you

923
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:40,600
Speaker 1: make me so mad. And then he texted me the

924
00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:43,120
Speaker 1: next day. I've been thinking about it. I love you

925
00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:46,560
Speaker 1: and I hate you. It's a common sentiment with Andy,

926
00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:47,880
Speaker 1: and I told him he used to call me the

927
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:51,239
Speaker 1: likable jerk. I think it was worse than that. Yeah,

928
00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:52,800
Speaker 1: I think it was still. No, you call me the

929
00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:55,640
Speaker 1: likable jerk? My show that or something. Oh, yeah, I

930
00:48:55,719 --> 00:48:58,160
Speaker 1: think it was. No, it was more clever than that. No,

931
00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:04,880
Speaker 1: it was from you. Um, So I don't rule anything

932
00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:07,279
Speaker 1: out just because whatever. It's sports like guys come out

933
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:11,120
Speaker 1: of nowhere. But this whole thing to like what he accomplished.

934
00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:13,120
Speaker 1: Do we not think that a healthy Mac would not

935
00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:16,400
Speaker 1: have beaten the Lions pretty handily? Right? Um, he might

936
00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:18,160
Speaker 1: not have gone over four in the red zone. You

937
00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:21,040
Speaker 1: might not have to kick five field goals exactly, Mac

938
00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:26,560
Speaker 1: Joe not being asked to do passes. Now, if he

939
00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:29,239
Speaker 1: was bad Mac, he might have thrown picks even and

940
00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:31,360
Speaker 1: we would have looked at it really poorly because we

941
00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:33,880
Speaker 1: would have said, who's their secondary, Like that guy got hurt,

942
00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:37,960
Speaker 1: that guy got five. But I can guarantee you even

943
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 1: if Mac had been quarterback, if they'd got up by

944
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:42,279
Speaker 1: three scores, he wouldn't be thrown either, right, And that

945
00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:46,560
Speaker 1: he did last year, Well in those situations, well he

946
00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:50,160
Speaker 1: turned those games into fifty point Also, not sure what

947
00:49:50,239 --> 00:49:52,680
Speaker 1: you're trying to do, because I think this is my

948
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:55,359
Speaker 1: big picture takeaway. Bailey's appy try to find a way

949
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:57,200
Speaker 1: to win the game when he steps on the field, right,

950
00:49:57,360 --> 00:49:59,160
Speaker 1: whatever we need to do, how do we manage this?

951
00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:01,719
Speaker 1: Mac Jones and year which, by the way, was sort

952
00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:03,200
Speaker 1: of the game plan a year ago for Mac Jones.

953
00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:05,960
Speaker 1: Now year two, Mac is Yeah, how far can we

954
00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:08,480
Speaker 1: take this offense with Mac? Can we close the gap

955
00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:10,759
Speaker 1: with the Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs and

956
00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:13,160
Speaker 1: the chart? Can we have a passing game? Can we

957
00:50:13,239 --> 00:50:15,439
Speaker 1: push it down the field if we go down three

958
00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:18,000
Speaker 1: scores against the Bills and not just put our tail

959
00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:20,759
Speaker 1: between our legs and go home. Like there were two

960
00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:24,040
Speaker 1: different objectives and that's why I also find these. You know,

961
00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:26,280
Speaker 1: maybe you should give Mac the offense you gave Zappy

962
00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:29,640
Speaker 1: No what handed off for a high sixty yards? Sure,

963
00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:33,000
Speaker 1: but are we evolving? Like the point of Mac is

964
00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:35,200
Speaker 1: to see if he's a franchise quarterback, if we're taking

965
00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:37,319
Speaker 1: it in that direction not just to win the game.

966
00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:39,400
Speaker 1: It is to win the game, but there's other right,

967
00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:42,000
Speaker 1: So I just a lot of the analysis has frustrated.

968
00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:44,680
Speaker 1: Like I was telling these guys, I talked to somebody

969
00:50:44,719 --> 00:50:46,880
Speaker 1: in football and I said that the game reminded me

970
00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:50,480
Speaker 1: a lot of the Houston win with Jacoby Brissette twenty

971
00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:52,880
Speaker 1: seven nothing, And they were like, absolutely, that's what like

972
00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:55,719
Speaker 1: my takeaway from the game was. And I don't know

973
00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:57,800
Speaker 1: how you like, say, well, why doesn't Bill do that

974
00:50:57,880 --> 00:50:59,839
Speaker 1: every time? But when you give him the third string

975
00:50:59,880 --> 00:51:03,080
Speaker 1: back up quarterback? Is it a coincidence that it's two

976
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:05,399
Speaker 1: shutouts that they like have this really good game plan.

977
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:07,840
Speaker 1: They control the game against a bad team or a

978
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:09,640
Speaker 1: team that isn't as good as people think. Maybe it

979
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:12,480
Speaker 1: could be like there's some tie ins there and those

980
00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:17,200
Speaker 1: guys face off this week. Yeah, maybe probably likely. All right,

981
00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:19,480
Speaker 1: Why y'll staring at me? I don't know. I was.

982
00:51:19,719 --> 00:51:21,319
Speaker 1: I got to carry it down. We have a guest

983
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:23,920
Speaker 1: on you, you know, like you tend to make fun

984
00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:26,160
Speaker 1: of me. I tend to talk a lot. Guest was

985
00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:30,280
Speaker 1: as much as Fitz he does. I was letting Fitz

986
00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:34,279
Speaker 1: I call him wordy McWord word. Fitz's plan is why

987
00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:36,200
Speaker 1: say it in three words if it can take thirty Well,

988
00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:41,120
Speaker 1: you know, and it's I was listening to him last

989
00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:43,399
Speaker 1: weekend and he admitted, he goes, I make things harder

990
00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:45,919
Speaker 1: for myself than they need to. Yes, yeah he does.

991
00:51:46,239 --> 00:51:48,800
Speaker 1: Let's just take the straight path today. The comment the

992
00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:52,400
Speaker 1: open and he does every segment to be full of

993
00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:55,160
Speaker 1: three references. And it is a rule of three. It's

994
00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:57,360
Speaker 1: always three. He's like Bill, Bill got on it. You

995
00:51:57,520 --> 00:51:59,480
Speaker 1: listen to Bill today when he described how they use

996
00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:01,480
Speaker 1: multiple time ends. I mean there can be three tight ends.

997
00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:03,160
Speaker 1: There can be two tight ends, two tight ends in

998
00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:05,000
Speaker 1: a jumbo. They can overload one side, they can motion

999
00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:06,480
Speaker 1: come back to the other side, or they can start

1000
00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:07,759
Speaker 1: on that side and go back to the other. So,

1001
00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:10,800
Speaker 1: all right, how how well does Andy pay attention? What

1002
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:12,759
Speaker 1: did he say of this team this week that he

1003
00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:15,560
Speaker 1: didn't say of the Lions last Well? He mentioned the

1004
00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:17,920
Speaker 1: quarterback in the offense, like he didn't start with the

1005
00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:21,200
Speaker 1: Jack Fox and the crisp boards of the world. That

1006
00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:22,800
Speaker 1: was the tough one. I know what you. I know

1007
00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:24,840
Speaker 1: what it is because I know you. Yeah, that's a

1008
00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:27,560
Speaker 1: tough one. He mentioned that this team was well coached.

1009
00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:31,080
Speaker 1: He never mentioned he mentioned well coached a couple of

1010
00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:34,040
Speaker 1: times coached Stefanski a couple of times. Yeah, I disagree

1011
00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:36,719
Speaker 1: with him. He never said that. Coach Stefanski drove it

1012
00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:38,360
Speaker 1: down your throat last year and then decided to go

1013
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:40,520
Speaker 1: five wide and let Baker Mayfield throw a pick to

1014
00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:42,800
Speaker 1: lose the game. So how well coached are they? I

1015
00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:46,520
Speaker 1: don't really buy it. But the quarterback last week. He

1016
00:52:46,560 --> 00:52:49,080
Speaker 1: didn't mention Jared Goff last week until postgame when he

1017
00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:51,680
Speaker 1: said Jared Goff good quarterback, and I'm like, no, he isn't.

1018
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:53,879
Speaker 1: He turns into a puddle of goo when he plays usual.

1019
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:56,160
Speaker 1: He certainly did. I was mad at myself. I picked

1020
00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:59,760
Speaker 1: the Lions. I want to ask you, I'm so stupid,

1021
00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:03,600
Speaker 1: so stupid, that's true, so stupid. I mean, I ever

1022
00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:06,200
Speaker 1: picked Jared Goff again. He can win five straight MVPs

1023
00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:08,400
Speaker 1: and I'll pick against him every week. I admit that

1024
00:53:08,480 --> 00:53:10,200
Speaker 1: I thought it was going to be a closer. I

1025
00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:12,040
Speaker 1: picked the Patriots to win. I didn't really think there

1026
00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:14,560
Speaker 1: was much doubt that they would win. Yes, that's true.

1027
00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:18,120
Speaker 1: I am I am five and oh I was four

1028
00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:20,600
Speaker 1: and o um until I fell on my face. Yeah,

1029
00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:23,080
Speaker 1: your guy, Fitzy post game, you know, I felt good

1030
00:53:23,080 --> 00:53:25,239
Speaker 1: about this game. I picked the Patriots I said, yeah,

1031
00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:29,359
Speaker 1: for the four hundred and seventy ninth straight week. You don't.

1032
00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:30,880
Speaker 1: It's like when we do all access and Mike and

1033
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:32,600
Speaker 1: I do it and then you know we're cutting and

1034
00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:34,000
Speaker 1: Steve Burton goes, I think you guys are right. I

1035
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:37,160
Speaker 1: think they're gonna win two. Even Mike makes fun of

1036
00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:41,640
Speaker 1: moments so funny. Uh so, yeah, what what else we got?

1037
00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:44,920
Speaker 1: The defense? Jack Jones future number one corner by the

1038
00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:49,360
Speaker 1: number one has he has he replaced Jason H j C.

1039
00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:52,360
Speaker 1: Jackson for you. Well, you know what annoys me with

1040
00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:55,040
Speaker 1: that is everybody says like Bill was so smart letting

1041
00:53:55,120 --> 00:53:57,719
Speaker 1: j C go. Look, he sucks in LA. Well, he

1042
00:53:57,760 --> 00:53:59,879
Speaker 1: didn't suck here. So if you had resigned him, I'm

1043
00:53:59,880 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 1: an assume you would have coached him well and he

1044
00:54:01,480 --> 00:54:03,440
Speaker 1: would have still been good. I would now you have

1045
00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:06,080
Speaker 1: two number one corners and I'd say, wow, I would

1046
00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:07,759
Speaker 1: go with the Bill knew he was gonna have to

1047
00:54:07,840 --> 00:54:11,439
Speaker 1: have ankle surgery right right before the season started. Chess

1048
00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:14,360
Speaker 1: check now thought that's what they put the extra bone

1049
00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:16,800
Speaker 1: in his ankle before he left. So don't rule it

1050
00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:18,799
Speaker 1: out there. Don't rule it out like if you wanted

1051
00:54:18,800 --> 00:54:21,839
Speaker 1: to give Bill superpowers, that's the superpower out. He knew

1052
00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:23,960
Speaker 1: he was gonna get hurt and be unavailable. But no,

1053
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:26,200
Speaker 1: I do like Jack Jones, and I think Jack Jones

1054
00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:27,960
Speaker 1: because one of the comments not as much as Jack

1055
00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:29,680
Speaker 1: Jones likes Jack and that's part of what I like

1056
00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:32,360
Speaker 1: about Jack Jones. And I like that mccordy likes that

1057
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:34,680
Speaker 1: about Jack Jones. When I asked him about that comment

1058
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:37,319
Speaker 1: last week, and he smirked and he said, now now

1059
00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:41,800
Speaker 1: he just can't allow any outs. That was funny. What

1060
00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:45,480
Speaker 1: do you think about this take that I had? Um take?

1061
00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:48,319
Speaker 1: You know, because they developed the Patriots offense has had

1062
00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:50,799
Speaker 1: to deal with, you know, not having Mac third string

1063
00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:54,359
Speaker 1: rookie quarterback, you know, having to adjust and get back

1064
00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:57,719
Speaker 1: to fundamentals and all that Mac will come back to

1065
00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:03,359
Speaker 1: a better offense than he left. Um, I don't. I'm

1066
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:06,319
Speaker 1: not sure. Well, the one area I might say yes

1067
00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:09,440
Speaker 1: is the offensive line. They've gotten engaged the last couple

1068
00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:12,040
Speaker 1: of years. When was the last time Trent Brown flexed

1069
00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:14,120
Speaker 1: over piles like he and we were talking about he

1070
00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:16,120
Speaker 1: wasn't engaged. And I know people are thrown out theories

1071
00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:18,040
Speaker 1: like did Scar give him a call? Because everybody thinks

1072
00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:23,640
Speaker 1: talking to whatever chess. But I do think the offensive line,

1073
00:55:24,080 --> 00:55:26,920
Speaker 1: aside from Isaiah Wynn, which I gotta think, there's a

1074
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:29,680
Speaker 1: chance Marcus Cannon is soon unseating him at the right

1075
00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:33,439
Speaker 1: tackle spot. You know who else thinks that too, Kendrick Bourn,

1076
00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:34,920
Speaker 1: because he's like, oh no, we put Cannon in at

1077
00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:36,719
Speaker 1: right tackle, right, So I'm on the line here. When

1078
00:55:36,719 --> 00:55:38,400
Speaker 1: he got into his fight with Bill about covering up

1079
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:39,880
Speaker 1: Marcus Cannon, he thought he was the right tackle. He

1080
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:42,200
Speaker 1: just assumed that he had replaced Win. Marcus Cannon also

1081
00:55:42,280 --> 00:55:45,200
Speaker 1: like randomly led the Patriots in like all grades on

1082
00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:50,680
Speaker 1: offense on PFF this week, which they go see. But yeah,

1083
00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:52,840
Speaker 1: I think the offensive line is something you can build on.

1084
00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:55,799
Speaker 1: Other than that, no, I don't really buy that. I mean,

1085
00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:58,920
Speaker 1: you got Taekwon Thornton back, that's how replace Agilar with him.

1086
00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:02,040
Speaker 1: Do you think Aglar will be inactive with a hamstring

1087
00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:04,920
Speaker 1: injury this week, regardless of whether he actually he definitely

1088
00:56:05,080 --> 00:56:06,920
Speaker 1: was dealing with something. But I don't think that's the

1089
00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:11,000
Speaker 1: only reason why seven everywhere. Yeah, I think he's toasts

1090
00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:13,000
Speaker 1: and the only reason why he only played seven and

1091
00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:15,800
Speaker 1: now you can have him inactive without these guys on

1092
00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:19,759
Speaker 1: the pregame saying, oh wow, Aglar ten million dollars healthy scratch, No,

1093
00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:23,359
Speaker 1: he's he's inactive with a hamstring, right right, right, that's

1094
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:25,080
Speaker 1: what you'll say. You have to say that says hamstring

1095
00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:26,719
Speaker 1: next to him. We'll see. I don't I know how.

1096
00:56:26,920 --> 00:56:31,160
Speaker 1: I don't know how that works. I don't like to

1097
00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:35,360
Speaker 1: commit um, but the rest of the offense, I don't know.

1098
00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:38,000
Speaker 1: I mean, it was good to get Hunter Henry involved

1099
00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:40,520
Speaker 1: last week the first past kind of get him, but

1100
00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:44,640
Speaker 1: there's still like playing playing without without a net at

1101
00:56:44,719 --> 00:56:46,320
Speaker 1: running back. I was just gonna say, I feel a

1102
00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:49,000
Speaker 1: lot better Harris, Damien Harris. Although the one thing I

1103
00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:51,200
Speaker 1: like here is I think you're going to see the

1104
00:56:51,239 --> 00:56:53,320
Speaker 1: ascension like this is a star in the making in

1105
00:56:53,400 --> 00:56:58,120
Speaker 1: my opinion. Stevenson, Yeah, I think Romandre is I've evolved

1106
00:56:58,160 --> 00:56:59,839
Speaker 1: from I used to compare him to Levy on Bell.

1107
00:57:00,160 --> 00:57:02,360
Speaker 1: Now I'm calling him a poor man, say Quon Barkley.

1108
00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:04,080
Speaker 1: So you can tell that I really enjoy What do

1109
00:57:04,120 --> 00:57:07,240
Speaker 1: you think they do? Behind? John Smith takes from last summer?

1110
00:57:07,320 --> 00:57:08,919
Speaker 1: What do you think? We're all wrong? Once in a while,

1111
00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:11,520
Speaker 1: you know who was wronger than me? Bill Belichick and

1112
00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:13,880
Speaker 1: Josh McDaniels, who paid him and then he spent the

1113
00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:16,919
Speaker 1: whole summer giving him the ball. But, like I said

1114
00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:20,840
Speaker 1: all the time, once in a while too, I nail

1115
00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:22,320
Speaker 1: the hell out of most. What do you think they

1116
00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:26,680
Speaker 1: do behind Ramandre without without Harris? Uh, it's a great question.

1117
00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:29,040
Speaker 1: Like I don't want to see any of them. I mean,

1118
00:57:29,080 --> 00:57:31,720
Speaker 1: I mean, do we see any do we see anything

1119
00:57:31,720 --> 00:57:34,360
Speaker 1: out of peer strong stakes? I haven't seen anything. I've

1120
00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:36,880
Speaker 1: seen nothing. See. This is what he like. It's a tonality,

1121
00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:39,880
Speaker 1: I know it is. I have to counter Mike Reese

1122
00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:42,400
Speaker 1: telling me he's the next James White before camp even

1123
00:57:42,480 --> 00:57:45,240
Speaker 1: starts with that whole thing about his coach told I

1124
00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:47,800
Speaker 1: didn't you don't have to say steaks. I don't know him.

1125
00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:49,640
Speaker 1: I didn't see him, not much. But but I don't

1126
00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:51,840
Speaker 1: know what any statch. But I didn't. I don't anything

1127
00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:53,920
Speaker 1: ball I didn't see. I didn't see enough face to

1128
00:57:54,080 --> 00:57:56,840
Speaker 1: know he staks. No, I know, that's like my point

1129
00:57:57,040 --> 00:58:01,520
Speaker 1: he was. I thought from the fumble, I was intrigued

1130
00:58:01,560 --> 00:58:03,680
Speaker 1: by Kevin Harris as a big runner, and that's what

1131
00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:06,280
Speaker 1: you're probably looking for, EDDIEI do they pay you based

1132

1205

1206
01:02:18,960 --> 01:02:22,360
Speaker 1: it massive capacity and near zero lag. And it's not

1207
01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:25,440
Speaker 1: just fast, it's twenty five times faster than today's four

1208
01:02:25,480 --> 01:02:28,840
Speaker 1: G networks. This is five G built right from the network.

1271
01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:11,000
Speaker 1: to get there. In fact, it takes a leap of faith,

1272

01:06:41,440 --> 01:06:45,040
Speaker 1: to enjoy themselves, like getting together with friends over Michelobe Ultra,

1282
01:06:45,280 --> 01:06:47,520
Speaker 1: because they know that happiness is the key to win it,

1283
01:06:47,720 --> 01:06:50,200

1288
01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:08,080
Speaker 1: fingers and everything you need for the game. But what

1289
01:07:08,200 --> 01:07:12,680
Speaker 1: you really get is so much more delivery, game day spirit.

1290
01:07:13,000 --> 01:07:21,760
Speaker 1: What we deliver by delivering and now great moments in history.

1291
01:07:21,960 --> 01:07:24,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna push back here on everybody. What what what

1292
01:07:24,920 --> 01:07:28,160
Speaker 1: does everybody have against Robbie Anderson? He's never made an

1293
01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:31,120
Speaker 1: important catch in his career, Like against he's done well

1294
01:07:31,280 --> 01:07:35,320
Speaker 1: when oh, I remember game and don't make me go

1295
01:07:35,400 --> 01:07:39,160
Speaker 1: to my phone, God, Deuce, you have a computer there.

1296
01:07:40,320 --> 01:07:44,040
Speaker 1: He's a thoroughly average player. Who yeah, is He's like

1297
01:07:44,080 --> 01:07:46,360
Speaker 1: a David Gibbons type, isn't he? Yeah? I have no

1298
01:07:46,720 --> 01:07:50,560
Speaker 1: interest in David Gibbons right now? Okay, all right, yeah,

1299
01:07:50,640 --> 01:07:53,800
Speaker 1: right now? They need a number one receiver. David Gibbins

1300
01:07:53,840 --> 01:07:56,400
Speaker 1: isn't there, And I don't think Robbie Anderson is either. No. No,

1301
01:07:56,760 --> 01:07:59,920
Speaker 1: But that's why I'm not interested. He's STI gonna get

1302
01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:02,520
Speaker 1: number one money. Of course he is. You think that's

1303
01:08:02,520 --> 01:08:04,480
Speaker 1: what he makes Why do you think he's on the block. Okay,

Speaker 1: so you guys want to hear about thanks, please do

1305
01:08:08,720 --> 01:08:12,200
Speaker 1: because I have the prolific career. There was one reasonably

1306
01:08:12,280 --> 01:08:14,800
Speaker 1: good game. There was one reasonably the game where he

1307
01:08:14,880 --> 01:08:17,479
Speaker 1: was targeted twelve times and had four catches for seventy six.

1308
01:08:18,320 --> 01:08:21,680
Speaker 1: That is the eight packs. Here we go, two for

1309
01:08:21,880 --> 01:08:25,560
Speaker 1: thirty four, none for none, one for two, three for

1310
01:08:25,760 --> 01:08:27,760
Speaker 1: twenty four, three for eleven, one for ten, and one

1311
01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:30,360
Speaker 1: for two. He is oh and nine career against the Patriots.

1312
01:08:30,960 --> 01:08:35,439
Speaker 1: He's had. Maybe I'm thinking of Wayne Krabet. That's another

Speaker 1: Has done all right? Evan, the spotlight's on you. Perfect

1323
01:09:26,360 --> 01:09:29,120
Speaker 1: attendance on the fifty three man roster for the Patriots

1324
01:09:29,280 --> 01:09:33,400
Speaker 1: on Wednesday. Running Back Damien Harris was out there, but

1325
01:09:34,200 --> 01:09:36,840
Speaker 1: very very limited. I'd say it was similar to what

1326
01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:40,240
Speaker 1: we saw with Jacobe or Mac or Kyle Dugger, where

1327
01:09:40,400 --> 01:09:43,639
Speaker 1: he's there for attendance, but once injury report comes out

1328
01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:45,479
Speaker 1: at four o'clock, I would expect him to be a

1329
01:09:45,680 --> 01:09:49,280
Speaker 1: DNB okay, And of course everyone wants to know what

1330
01:09:49,439 --> 01:09:51,920
Speaker 1: did Mac look like? I thought he was moving around

1331
01:09:51,920 --> 01:09:54,280
Speaker 1: a little bit better. Today We got an extended look

1332
01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:59,000
Speaker 1: at Mac Jones throwing passes both to the coaching staff

1333
01:09:59,200 --> 01:10:02,240
Speaker 1: and then to actual receivers, not against air, obviously not

1334
01:10:02,360 --> 01:10:05,320
Speaker 1: actually a team drill, but we got a pretty long

1335
01:10:05,400 --> 01:10:08,280
Speaker 1: look at Mac Jones today and I thought he was

1336
01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:10,439
Speaker 1: moving around a little bit better, seemed a little bit

1337
01:10:10,560 --> 01:10:13,800
Speaker 1: more I don't know, more pep in his step, I

1338
01:10:13,880 --> 01:10:16,040
Speaker 1: guess as a way to put it. But based off

1339
01:10:16,120 --> 01:10:18,880
Speaker 1: of what we saw out there, it still feels like

1340
01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:22,080
Speaker 1: and seems like Bailey Zappy is preparing to be the

1341
01:10:22,200 --> 01:10:24,920
Speaker 1: starter on Sunday at least today. And I think that

1342
01:10:25,040 --> 01:10:27,160
Speaker 1: was what Belichick said this morning where he said, you know,

1343
01:10:27,439 --> 01:10:29,680
Speaker 1: you gotta get out there at practice today, see what

1344
01:10:29,800 --> 01:10:32,719
Speaker 1: everybody looks like and go from there. So that could change.

1345
01:10:32,800 --> 01:10:34,840
Speaker 1: But based off of the way that drills were being

1346
01:10:34,920 --> 01:10:37,080
Speaker 1: running stuff like that, it looks like Zappy is still

1347
01:10:37,160 --> 01:10:39,519
Speaker 1: QB one for now. Yeah, I mean, unless I know

1348
01:10:39,840 --> 01:10:43,160
Speaker 1: for sure that Mac can start today, I have to

1349
01:10:43,280 --> 01:10:45,320
Speaker 1: go all in on Zappy because I want to prepare

1350
01:10:45,400 --> 01:10:47,000
Speaker 1: him for the game. I don't want to be splitting

1351
01:10:47,479 --> 01:10:50,439
Speaker 1: snaps and oh, let's see how he looks Thursday. Well,

1352
01:10:50,720 --> 01:10:53,320
Speaker 1: we'll see how Mac looks Friday. No, we got to

1353
01:10:53,360 --> 01:10:55,679
Speaker 1: prepare for the game. So you make your decision today

1354
01:10:55,760 --> 01:10:58,960
Speaker 1: who your starter is, and it's gotta be Zappy. You know.

1355
01:10:59,120 --> 01:11:01,080
Speaker 1: Do you think they're like look at him throughout the weekend?

1356
01:11:01,160 --> 01:11:03,720
Speaker 1: I mean, is there somebody here trainer like evaluating Mac.

1357
01:11:03,760 --> 01:11:05,639
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure Mac was here like the whole

1358
01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:09,080
Speaker 1: time last weekend or yeah, oh yeah, I would imagine. Yeah,

1359
01:11:09,520 --> 01:11:11,679
Speaker 1: it's not like he just kind of goes off and yeah,

1360
01:11:11,840 --> 01:11:13,160
Speaker 1: they didn't really get a look at him for a

1361
01:11:13,200 --> 01:11:15,720
Speaker 1: few days. I would imagine. I assume he's doing every

1362
01:11:15,800 --> 01:11:17,639
Speaker 1: said it was a nice day out there today, Yeah,

1363
01:11:17,760 --> 01:11:21,679
Speaker 1: really nice day out Almost felt like a early summer

1364
01:11:21,800 --> 01:11:24,519
Speaker 1: day or one of those fall days. At Lingers. I

1365
01:11:24,560 --> 01:11:28,400
Speaker 1: would imagine that affected the mood. The mood was great, yeah,

1366
01:11:28,479 --> 01:11:30,920
Speaker 1: and they, like I said, day let us see the

1367
01:11:31,080 --> 01:11:35,000
Speaker 1: quarterbacks throw for a solid five or six minutes. And

1368
01:11:35,400 --> 01:11:38,200
Speaker 1: we got to just stand there and watch Mac move around.

1369
01:11:38,360 --> 01:11:40,400
Speaker 1: Take video of him throwing, which I'm sure is all

1370
01:11:40,439 --> 01:11:42,720
Speaker 1: over social media and every other post is like a

1371
01:11:42,840 --> 01:11:45,280
Speaker 1: video from a mile away of Matt Jones, and he

1372
01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:49,160
Speaker 1: looks better. I'm not saying we were that close. He

1373
01:11:49,320 --> 01:11:52,200
Speaker 1: was standing on about the fifty yard line, and we

1374
01:11:52,280 --> 01:11:54,280
Speaker 1: were at in the end zone, you know, at the

1375
01:11:54,560 --> 01:11:56,519
Speaker 1: at the back of the ends sixty yards, so we

1376
01:11:56,640 --> 01:11:58,880
Speaker 1: were like sixty yards away from him. But you can

1377
01:11:58,920 --> 01:12:01,599
Speaker 1: at least see how his moving around. And I one

1378
01:12:01,680 --> 01:12:05,080
Speaker 1: little thing that I did notice was he had his

1379
01:12:05,160 --> 01:12:07,559
Speaker 1: knee brace on. And he wears a knee brace, that's

1380
01:12:07,560 --> 01:12:10,080
Speaker 1: a routine thing for him. But if he's not going

1381
01:12:10,120 --> 01:12:13,160
Speaker 1: to participate in practice at all once the drills actually

1382
01:12:13,240 --> 01:12:16,120
Speaker 1: truly begin, that why have the knee brace on? Right,

1383
01:12:16,160 --> 01:12:18,840
Speaker 1: The knee brace is sort of a contact thing, not

1384
01:12:19,080 --> 01:12:22,560
Speaker 1: necessarily trying to keep his knee protected when he's just

1385
01:12:22,680 --> 01:12:25,479
Speaker 1: throwing drills. So I don't know if he always wears it.

1386
01:12:25,640 --> 01:12:28,040
Speaker 1: I'll have to take a note. That is interesting, but

1387
01:12:28,200 --> 01:12:31,560
Speaker 1: correct me. He was limited last week, right, correct, It

1388
01:12:31,680 --> 01:12:34,880
Speaker 1: was the week before that he was DMP every day, correct. Yeah. Yeah,

1389
01:12:35,000 --> 01:12:36,800
Speaker 1: but so I think if he's doing anything that makes

1390
01:12:36,840 --> 01:12:39,280
Speaker 1: a little sense. But yeah, you probably can expect him.

1391
01:12:39,320 --> 01:12:41,920
Speaker 1: Oh what do we got? Mike has a bad looking

1392
01:12:42,040 --> 01:12:44,120
Speaker 1: looking at Mark Daniels. You know, he does his found

1393
01:12:44,160 --> 01:12:46,479
Speaker 1: footage to his binocular so it's super shaky. But the

1394
01:12:46,560 --> 01:12:48,680
Speaker 1: flappy thing, it's just that's bugging the hell out of

1395
01:12:48,720 --> 01:12:53,479
Speaker 1: me already. I'm glad that that's another thing though. That

1396
01:12:54,600 --> 01:12:57,080
Speaker 1: just reminded me. Did you not have that last week?

1397
01:12:57,120 --> 01:13:00,479
Speaker 1: He had it on today? Yeah, and he was looking

1398
01:13:00,520 --> 01:13:02,880
Speaker 1: at it a lot and not playing with the flap,

1399
01:13:03,040 --> 01:13:06,920
Speaker 1: just looking at the play. So no, I think that's

1400
01:13:07,000 --> 01:13:11,640
Speaker 1: interesting that he's doing more quarterback he things. Yeah, you know,

1401
01:13:11,680 --> 01:13:13,439
Speaker 1: if he's got the brace on and he's got the

1402
01:13:14,439 --> 01:13:16,960
Speaker 1: the flappy thing that Mike hates so much. Yeah, well,

1403
01:13:17,400 --> 01:13:19,599
Speaker 1: I mean we're not gonna be you know, obviously we're

1404
01:13:19,640 --> 01:13:22,559
Speaker 1: not there when they really start doing the team drills today.

1405
01:13:22,640 --> 01:13:25,960
Speaker 1: But if he's starting, then he's got to be starting

1406
01:13:26,160 --> 01:13:29,120
Speaker 1: today in my opinion. You know, I don't think I mean,

1407
01:13:29,200 --> 01:13:31,759
Speaker 1: I get your point, and I think it's a it's valid.

1408
01:13:31,960 --> 01:13:33,680
Speaker 1: I don't think that that's the be all end all.

1409
01:13:33,760 --> 01:13:37,400
Speaker 1: I think if they feel like he's going to progress

1410
01:13:37,479 --> 01:13:39,720
Speaker 1: to be ready, then I think he doesn't need the

1411
01:13:39,760 --> 01:13:43,000
Speaker 1: prep time that Zappy does. I think you can get

1412
01:13:43,080 --> 01:13:46,720
Speaker 1: Zappy ready and be comfortable. Like to me, it's a

1413
01:13:46,840 --> 01:13:49,479
Speaker 1: it's a health thing. If they think he's healthy enough

1414
01:13:49,520 --> 01:13:52,559
Speaker 1: to go. He knows what he's doing. Yeah, especially today's

1415
01:13:52,600 --> 01:13:54,560
Speaker 1: usually like early down day, so this is like and

1416
01:13:54,680 --> 01:13:56,240
Speaker 1: you hand it off and you hand it off and

1417
01:13:56,320 --> 01:13:58,800
Speaker 1: you know so, but if he's getting better third down,

1418
01:13:58,880 --> 01:14:01,240
Speaker 1: red zone tomorrow. This is the actual footage from today

1419
01:14:01,320 --> 01:14:05,240
Speaker 1: right here. It's so obviously they're talking about that too,

1420
01:14:05,280 --> 01:14:07,240
Speaker 1: because they're really zeroing in on the brace here and

1421
01:14:07,320 --> 01:14:10,840
Speaker 1: the sports ub footage his whole leg. I can't see,

1422
01:14:10,880 --> 01:14:13,880
Speaker 1: are they. So they're in shelves today, Yeah, and then

1423
01:14:14,000 --> 01:14:17,880
Speaker 1: uppers with probably knee braces and stuff like that. That's

1424
01:14:17,880 --> 01:14:19,880
Speaker 1: what they've been doing a lot in the season as

1425
01:14:19,920 --> 01:14:22,439
Speaker 1: they got the shoulder pads on and the you know

1426
01:14:22,720 --> 01:14:25,560
Speaker 1: below the waist is like the like knee sleeves or

1427
01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:28,560
Speaker 1: braces that they use, but not you know, full on

1428
01:14:29,800 --> 01:14:35,240
Speaker 1: like pads Okay, Oh you know, so Mac is back,

1429
01:14:35,439 --> 01:14:39,559
Speaker 1: says Beetle. Well, we'll see. Um, he certainly looks better

1430
01:14:39,600 --> 01:14:41,479
Speaker 1: than he did last week. Well, and the last week

1431
01:14:41,520 --> 01:14:44,200
Speaker 1: he looked better now, like wouldn't that. I mean, I'm

1432
01:14:44,240 --> 01:14:46,920
Speaker 1: not making fun of anybody, like, but like that to

1433
01:14:47,040 --> 01:14:50,320
Speaker 1: me is a given. Like he's gonna progress, right, I

1434
01:14:50,360 --> 01:14:53,200
Speaker 1: mean it's it's now going to be you know, four weeks,

1435
01:14:54,080 --> 01:14:56,880
Speaker 1: you know, since the since the like he's going to

1436
01:14:56,960 --> 01:15:00,800
Speaker 1: get progressively better. Yeah. The question is he getting to

1437
01:15:00,840 --> 01:15:03,320
Speaker 1: the point where you think he's moving well enough to play? Yeah?

1438
01:15:03,479 --> 01:15:05,960
Speaker 1: And that you know, I think we're all sort of wondering. Ye,

1439
01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:07,760
Speaker 1: But I don't think anybody has the answer to that question.

1440
01:15:07,800 --> 01:15:09,960
Speaker 1: I just think that last thirty percent is hard to discern,

1441
01:15:10,040 --> 01:15:11,800
Speaker 1: Like you could tell last week when it's like he

1442
01:15:11,800 --> 01:15:13,640
Speaker 1: ain't even close. I mean, he looks like he's at

1443
01:15:13,680 --> 01:15:16,760
Speaker 1: best fifty fifty maybe less so. And at that last

1444
01:15:16,800 --> 01:15:19,120
Speaker 1: thirty percent, how do they I don't think the reporters

1445
01:15:19,120 --> 01:15:20,360
Speaker 1: are gonna be able to tell. You know, it's like

1446
01:15:20,360 --> 01:15:21,760
Speaker 1: all of a sudden and you're not going to see

1447
01:15:21,800 --> 01:15:25,080
Speaker 1: him starting. Yeah, like run run, like I'm running to

1448
01:15:25,160 --> 01:15:28,960
Speaker 1: try to get away from Miles Miles. Garrett Evan, I

1449
01:15:29,040 --> 01:15:32,160
Speaker 1: think you did a very good job this week differentiating

1450
01:15:32,240 --> 01:15:36,559
Speaker 1: how the offense looked with Zappy compared to when mac

1451
01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:40,360
Speaker 1: m One thing in your studies this week that I

1452
01:15:40,479 --> 01:15:43,599
Speaker 1: wanted to ask you was about Thornton Taekwon Thornton. Yes,

1453
01:15:43,880 --> 01:15:46,920
Speaker 1: in my opinion, there were two or three plays where

1454
01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:50,479
Speaker 1: I thought Thornton got off the line well and Zappy

1455
01:15:50,720 --> 01:15:53,600
Speaker 1: chose not to go to him. One he got a

1456
01:15:53,640 --> 01:15:57,240
Speaker 1: twenty three yard pass to h Meyer, so it's it's

1457
01:15:57,280 --> 01:15:59,599
Speaker 1: no big deal. But I thought on that particular play

1458
01:16:00,160 --> 01:16:02,600
Speaker 1: the if he had he seen Thornton, it might have

1459
01:16:02,640 --> 01:16:06,479
Speaker 1: been a home run. Did you see that as well? Yeah,

1460
01:16:06,520 --> 01:16:08,000
Speaker 1: So that was one of the two plays that I

1461
01:16:08,120 --> 01:16:11,719
Speaker 1: highlighted in the post with Taekwon, the one you're talking about.

1462
01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:14,479
Speaker 1: He was in the cover two hole right the underneath

1463
01:16:14,520 --> 01:16:16,400
Speaker 1: corner presses him at the line of scrimmage. Then he

1464
01:16:16,479 --> 01:16:18,640
Speaker 1: clears it and he gets up the sideline into that

1465
01:16:18,720 --> 01:16:21,840
Speaker 1: cover two hole and not to make it mag Vers

1466
01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:25,439
Speaker 1: Zappy or whatever, but look, I think that a more

1467
01:16:25,479 --> 01:16:29,200
Speaker 1: aggressive minded quarterback probably puts that on Taekwon's back shoulder

1468
01:16:29,520 --> 01:16:31,880
Speaker 1: away from the safety coming over the top in the

1469
01:16:31,920 --> 01:16:34,200
Speaker 1: half field. And puts it on the sideline for him

1470
01:16:34,240 --> 01:16:35,720
Speaker 1: and they have a big play there. And I thought

1471
01:16:36,040 --> 01:16:37,880
Speaker 1: earlier on in the game the two plays that everybody

1472
01:16:37,960 --> 01:16:41,479
Speaker 1: keeps highlighting was Zappi or those like scramble second reaction

1473
01:16:41,520 --> 01:16:43,680
Speaker 1: type of plays. He had one earlier to Myers too,

1474
01:16:44,040 --> 01:16:46,400
Speaker 1: and where he misses a downfield throw to Hunter Henry

1475
01:16:46,479 --> 01:16:50,200
Speaker 1: that I broke down in that post. So those downfield

1476
01:16:50,240 --> 01:16:52,920
Speaker 1: opportunities were there at times with Taykwon. The other one

1477
01:16:53,120 --> 01:16:55,800
Speaker 1: was I think he was more clearing out coverage than

1478
01:16:56,120 --> 01:17:00,200
Speaker 1: actually the number one option on the play, but he'd

1479
01:17:00,280 --> 01:17:03,479
Speaker 1: get by his defender pretty easily. And still even if

1480
01:17:03,520 --> 01:17:05,519
Speaker 1: you're clearing out coverage when you're you know, two or

1481
01:17:05,560 --> 01:17:08,439
Speaker 1: three yards behind the defense, that's still an opportunity there

1482
01:17:08,479 --> 01:17:10,280
Speaker 1: for the quarterback to throw a deep if he feels

1483
01:17:10,320 --> 01:17:12,880
Speaker 1: like he has you opened down the field. So that

1484
01:17:13,040 --> 01:17:16,080
Speaker 1: one Zappy opened the other direction, he had his back

1485
01:17:16,160 --> 01:17:19,120
Speaker 1: to the Thornton read he opened to the right side

1486
01:17:19,160 --> 01:17:21,560
Speaker 1: instead of the left, so he didn't see it. I

1487
01:17:21,840 --> 01:17:24,360
Speaker 1: think there were some instances certainly where Taekwon was opened

1488
01:17:24,400 --> 01:17:26,400
Speaker 1: down the field. I think the one thing that maybe

1489
01:17:26,439 --> 01:17:28,680
Speaker 1: stood out to me a little bit, it was a

1490
01:17:28,720 --> 01:17:30,360
Speaker 1: little bit too much wasted time at the line of

1491
01:17:30,400 --> 01:17:34,040
Speaker 1: scrimmage sometimes, Like I think he's trying to throw too

1492
01:17:34,120 --> 01:17:36,760
Speaker 1: many fakes in his release moves, where when you're a

1493
01:17:36,840 --> 01:17:39,120
Speaker 1: four two eight guy, just just get up the field right,

1494
01:17:39,200 --> 01:17:40,840
Speaker 1: make a move and go, because you got to get

1495
01:17:41,080 --> 01:17:44,000
Speaker 1: your strides open and get that speed going. Some of

1496
01:17:44,040 --> 01:17:45,960
Speaker 1: the times I thought he lingered a little bit too

1497
01:17:46,040 --> 01:17:47,880
Speaker 1: long at the line of scrimmage and his route took

1498
01:17:47,880 --> 01:17:50,080
Speaker 1: a little bit too long to get going, which might

1499
01:17:50,160 --> 01:17:53,920
Speaker 1: have moved Zappy onto something else because of that. Yeah, alright,

1500
01:17:53,960 --> 01:17:55,599
Speaker 1: something he missed Myers too, Because that one I think

1501
01:17:55,600 --> 01:17:57,679
Speaker 1: we saw that during the game on the far end zone.

1502
01:17:58,760 --> 01:18:01,960
Speaker 1: I'm talking about Myers kind of busting actually, yeah, so

1503
01:18:02,080 --> 01:18:05,280
Speaker 1: that one was I also put that in there. And

1504
01:18:05,400 --> 01:18:07,800
Speaker 1: that one I think he just came off of Myers

1505
01:18:07,840 --> 01:18:10,479
Speaker 1: a little bit too quickly and they ended up dropping

1506
01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:12,920
Speaker 1: a defender off the line of scrimmage and into a

1507
01:18:13,040 --> 01:18:17,000
Speaker 1: robber zone. And that Myers was running into the robber.

1508
01:18:17,120 --> 01:18:19,040
Speaker 1: But the robber is really looking in the middle of

1509
01:18:19,080 --> 01:18:22,920
Speaker 1: the field, right, He's not focused on the routes outside

1510
01:18:23,560 --> 01:18:26,559
Speaker 1: the numbers. So Myers is crossing on that deep over

1511
01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:30,240
Speaker 1: route and although he has to go through the robber zone.

1512
01:18:30,560 --> 01:18:32,240
Speaker 1: It's not really like the robber is going to be

1513
01:18:32,280 --> 01:18:34,360
Speaker 1: able to turn his back and make a play on

1514
01:18:34,439 --> 01:18:36,679
Speaker 1: the football in that situation. So if he just lays

1515
01:18:36,720 --> 01:18:38,760
Speaker 1: that ball out for Myers in the front of the

1516
01:18:38,880 --> 01:18:41,320
Speaker 1: end zone at six, and that's one of those ones

1517
01:18:41,439 --> 01:18:43,920
Speaker 1: that it was a kind of a disguised coverage that

1518
01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:45,479
Speaker 1: I think he just moved off of and went to

1519
01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:48,800
Speaker 1: Hunter Henry. But ideally once he sees that on tape,

1520
01:18:49,080 --> 01:18:51,320
Speaker 1: he comes back to it maybe next week and is

1521
01:18:51,360 --> 01:18:54,559
Speaker 1: able to see that love it in there. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

1522
01:18:54,600 --> 01:18:56,280
Speaker 1: So that was just something I just wanted to get

1523
01:18:56,360 --> 01:18:58,960
Speaker 1: your opinion on. Was Thornton And you know, I think

1524
01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:01,640
Speaker 1: only had a couple of catches and they were for

1525
01:19:01,760 --> 01:19:04,320
Speaker 1: short yards, but I love seeing them out there. And

1526
01:19:04,720 --> 01:19:08,320
Speaker 1: do you believe that it makes it easier to sit

1527
01:19:08,400 --> 01:19:12,080
Speaker 1: Agalore this week now that he's here. Yeah, Look, I

1528
01:19:12,200 --> 01:19:15,400
Speaker 1: think Thornton is here to replace Nelson agal Or, whether

1529
01:19:15,640 --> 01:19:18,880
Speaker 1: it's now or next year, right, I mean, Nelson aglor

1530
01:19:18,960 --> 01:19:21,439
Speaker 1: is in a contract year. You need that speed receiver

1531
01:19:21,960 --> 01:19:25,479
Speaker 1: in your offense, and Thornton was drafted to hopefully not

1532
01:19:25,680 --> 01:19:29,760
Speaker 1: have to pay Nelson Aglare again. Pay somebody like Nelson again,

1533
01:19:30,120 --> 01:19:33,280
Speaker 1: So that's the idea. And I definitely thought when you

1534
01:19:33,400 --> 01:19:37,000
Speaker 1: watch him, especially against man coverage, that suddenness and burst

1535
01:19:37,400 --> 01:19:40,760
Speaker 1: is a factor, Like it's difficult to cover him for

1536
01:19:40,920 --> 01:19:43,280
Speaker 1: defensive backs. And you could see the Lions defensive backs.

1537
01:19:43,680 --> 01:19:45,680
Speaker 1: You know, he created some separation. He didn't always get

1538
01:19:45,720 --> 01:19:47,760
Speaker 1: the ball, but there are some moments of separation there

1539
01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:51,640
Speaker 1: for sure. And then who do you think they get what?

1540
01:19:53,160 --> 01:19:54,720
Speaker 1: When you asked him, you said, we are there two

1541
01:19:54,760 --> 01:19:56,599
Speaker 1: or three times that they got open? Which I would

1542
01:19:56,600 --> 01:19:59,640
Speaker 1: have agreed, Yeah, okay, I would have agreed there were

1543
01:19:59,680 --> 01:20:01,840
Speaker 1: two times, so they got open. Okay. I would also

1544
01:20:01,880 --> 01:20:03,880
Speaker 1: agree with the other thing that Evan said about him

1545
01:20:04,240 --> 01:20:06,320
Speaker 1: wasting some time with the honor scrimmage. A matter of fact,

1546
01:20:06,479 --> 01:20:08,120
Speaker 1: he and I talked about that a little bit. Yeah

1547
01:20:08,200 --> 01:20:11,160
Speaker 1: during the game, Okay, that's all. Who do you think

1548
01:20:11,240 --> 01:20:13,960
Speaker 1: I always change it? Who's the running back that's number

1549
01:20:14,000 --> 01:20:16,759
Speaker 1: two behind Stevenson for this game? It's a good question.

1550
01:20:17,080 --> 01:20:21,560
Speaker 1: I think it's tough because it depends on what is

1551
01:20:21,600 --> 01:20:24,120
Speaker 1: the role that they want that running back to play.

1552
01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:26,600
Speaker 1: If he's going to be an early down back and

1553
01:20:26,680 --> 01:20:29,759
Speaker 1: they're just gonna spell Stevenson for five to ten carries

1554
01:20:29,760 --> 01:20:32,479
Speaker 1: on first down. Then I actually think it might be

1555
01:20:32,600 --> 01:20:35,120
Speaker 1: JJ Taylor getting the call up from the practice squad

1556
01:20:35,160 --> 01:20:37,800
Speaker 1: because we've seen him, although it hasn't been a long

1557
01:20:37,880 --> 01:20:40,040
Speaker 1: time in a regular season game, we've seen him be

1558
01:20:40,080 --> 01:20:42,080
Speaker 1: able to just run the ball in an NFL game

1559
01:20:42,479 --> 01:20:45,960
Speaker 1: between the tackles, and that's what they really need. I

1560
01:20:46,280 --> 01:20:50,759
Speaker 1: would highly doubt if it's Strong, if it's Harris, whoever, Taylor,

1561
01:20:51,080 --> 01:20:52,639
Speaker 1: that they would put them on the field on third

1562
01:20:52,720 --> 01:20:55,200
Speaker 1: down because now you have Blitz pick up responsibilities, you

1563
01:20:55,280 --> 01:20:58,240
Speaker 1: have to run routes like that's gonna be Stevenson, that's

1564
01:20:58,280 --> 01:21:00,439
Speaker 1: gonna be his role, which as it should be. So

1565
01:21:00,600 --> 01:21:02,360
Speaker 1: really what they're looking for as a guy to come

1566
01:21:02,400 --> 01:21:04,960
Speaker 1: in and give them like eight carries on first down.

1567
01:21:05,400 --> 01:21:08,040
Speaker 1: And I think if I had to pick somebody right now,

1568
01:21:08,080 --> 01:21:11,439
Speaker 1: I'd probably lean towards JJ Taylor. Okay, I think that's

1569
01:21:11,479 --> 01:21:13,519
Speaker 1: what it will be too. That's what we talked about yesterday.

1570
01:21:13,920 --> 01:21:18,000
Speaker 1: I just what do you think of Kevin Harris in

1571
01:21:18,160 --> 01:21:19,800
Speaker 1: that kind of a role. Yeah, I mean I think

1572
01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:21,920
Speaker 1: ideally that's the role that he's going to play. Right

1573
01:21:22,000 --> 01:21:25,120
Speaker 1: you know that he is a first and second down

1574
01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:29,040
Speaker 1: Patriot back. A power guy can run between the tackles,

1575
01:21:29,400 --> 01:21:32,320
Speaker 1: you know, Strong, especially if you start to get him

1576
01:21:32,439 --> 01:21:34,600
Speaker 1: going and you let the blocking sort of do the

1577
01:21:34,680 --> 01:21:36,400
Speaker 1: work and get him up to a top speed. He

1578
01:21:36,520 --> 01:21:39,400
Speaker 1: probably has been a pretty difficult guy to tackle in

1579
01:21:39,439 --> 01:21:41,280
Speaker 1: the open field going back to college. You know, he's

1580
01:21:41,360 --> 01:21:44,599
Speaker 1: some highlights in college where he's carrying guys, pushing the pile,

1581
01:21:44,720 --> 01:21:47,720
Speaker 1: things like that. So I was a little wary of

1582
01:21:47,840 --> 01:21:50,639
Speaker 1: his ball security. The fumbles killed him. There's no question

1583
01:21:50,720 --> 01:21:53,080
Speaker 1: that's why he's on the practice way. Yeah, so I'm

1584
01:21:53,120 --> 01:21:55,840
Speaker 1: not sure if they're ready for either rookie running back.

1585
01:21:55,960 --> 01:21:58,160
Speaker 1: Quite frankly, I think Peter Strong will be active, but

1586
01:21:58,360 --> 01:21:59,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's ready to take on an

1587
01:21:59,840 --> 01:22:02,120
Speaker 1: actual role. I don't know. It's kind of disappointing. I mean,

1588
01:22:02,240 --> 01:22:05,000
Speaker 1: he drafted these two guys for a situation like this.

1589
01:22:05,200 --> 01:22:07,240
Speaker 1: I mean Brandon Boldham left. You know, It's just you'd

1590
01:22:07,280 --> 01:22:10,080
Speaker 1: love to see one of these guys that they drafted

1591
01:22:10,400 --> 01:22:12,200
Speaker 1: step up and maybe give you something to think about

1592
01:22:12,240 --> 01:22:14,720
Speaker 1: when Harris potentially leaves next years a free Yeah, I

1593
01:22:14,720 --> 01:22:17,639
Speaker 1: would like it to be pre strong in this game.

1594
01:22:17,960 --> 01:22:21,720
Speaker 1: I agree with Evan's assessment, but I would like it

1595
01:22:21,840 --> 01:22:24,200
Speaker 1: to be. If it's gonna be five to six seven,

1596
01:22:24,760 --> 01:22:27,519
Speaker 1: why not. Yeah, see, you know he's got some speed.

1597
01:22:27,600 --> 01:22:29,160
Speaker 1: Get them out there, give me a chance. And then

1598
01:22:29,200 --> 01:22:31,320
Speaker 1: and then we're doing the whole zappy dance with Damian Harris,

1599
01:22:31,360 --> 01:22:37,320
Speaker 1: like we're doing the whole like Pierre Strong right days

1600
01:22:37,880 --> 01:22:42,200
Speaker 1: is greener. It is interesting though, too, because this offense

1601
01:22:42,280 --> 01:22:44,640
Speaker 1: now without a fullback. Like before, when they had the

1602
01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:46,559
Speaker 1: full back and he had to put a young running

1603
01:22:46,600 --> 01:22:48,880
Speaker 1: back out there, it's like just run behind James Death.

1604
01:22:49,479 --> 01:22:53,040
Speaker 1: But it's really not much thinking on the running backs part.

1605
01:22:53,080 --> 01:22:55,080
Speaker 1: But now that they've gone away from the full back,

1606
01:22:55,320 --> 01:22:58,080
Speaker 1: there's a lot more reading the line of scrimmage for

1607
01:22:58,120 --> 01:23:00,439
Speaker 1: the running back. You know, they're running in side zone,

1608
01:23:00,439 --> 01:23:02,400
Speaker 1: outside zone, things like that, and they're trying to get

1609
01:23:02,640 --> 01:23:05,479
Speaker 1: them to read those cutback lanes. That's a lot different

1610
01:23:05,560 --> 01:23:08,080
Speaker 1: than just saying, okay, we're gonna run, you know, lead

1611
01:23:08,160 --> 01:23:10,439
Speaker 1: with James Devlin or Jacob Johnson and you're just going

1612
01:23:10,479 --> 01:23:13,439
Speaker 1: to follow him through the hole. You know, that's simple offense.

1613
01:23:13,560 --> 01:23:16,320
Speaker 1: This is a little bit more advanced between the airs

1614
01:23:16,360 --> 01:23:18,840
Speaker 1: for backs and yeah, it's just like three James Devlin

1615
01:23:18,920 --> 01:23:24,439
Speaker 1: references here on the show todays. I think, yeah, five

1616
01:23:24,479 --> 01:23:26,360
Speaker 1: past five hundred is the ace taking a hut line.

1617
01:23:26,600 --> 01:23:29,600
Speaker 1: U phones are stacked up, so let's get them unstacked.

1618
01:23:29,760 --> 01:23:33,000
Speaker 1: Todd's in North Carolina. What's up, Todd? Hey, guys, With

1619
01:23:33,200 --> 01:23:36,519
Speaker 1: respect to your video telecast, one of the big things

1620
01:23:36,640 --> 01:23:40,120
Speaker 1: is body language is like forty five percent of communication.

1621
01:23:40,200 --> 01:23:43,080
Speaker 1: And you guys have such great body language. Your facial

1622
01:23:43,120 --> 01:23:47,400
Speaker 1: expression spread or legendary. And to watch Deuce's little smile

1623
01:23:48,080 --> 01:23:49,599
Speaker 1: when he when he you know he's going to get

1624
01:23:49,600 --> 01:23:51,280
Speaker 1: a point and he's gonna get Paul because he doesn't

1625
01:23:51,280 --> 01:23:53,519
Speaker 1: get ball off, but he does get that smile that

1626
01:23:53,600 --> 01:23:58,080
Speaker 1: one time. Okay, so there's there's a there's a check

1627
01:23:58,720 --> 01:24:01,920
Speaker 1: check mark in the video column. Oh you guys anti

1628
01:24:02,080 --> 01:24:07,400
Speaker 1: video love the video video too. Yeah, but we just

1629
01:24:07,520 --> 01:24:10,040
Speaker 1: want to like, is the value there to have like

1630
01:24:10,160 --> 01:24:13,120
Speaker 1: a producer and you know somebody, you know, all the

1631
01:24:13,240 --> 01:24:17,920
Speaker 1: production that's required versus just doing audio. You think it's

1632
01:24:18,720 --> 01:24:23,400
Speaker 1: why because the clips that we pull, like yeah, Alex

1633
01:24:23,560 --> 01:24:26,600
Speaker 1: is talking about of you and Paul bickering back and

1634
01:24:26,680 --> 01:24:31,960
Speaker 1: forth on the But I don't want that stuff goes viral, right,

1635
01:24:32,000 --> 01:24:34,760
Speaker 1: Like that's the stuff that people craft towards listeners and

1636
01:24:34,840 --> 01:24:39,520
Speaker 1: then you get a new listeners and the Facebook, Live, Twitter, Instagram,

1637
01:24:39,640 --> 01:24:43,479
Speaker 1: like we can tap into that audio, can farm the comments. Yeah,

1638
01:24:43,520 --> 01:24:47,479
Speaker 1: because everything's video these days. Everything. Yeah, all right, quick

1639
01:24:47,560 --> 01:24:50,599
Speaker 1: question for you guys, YEP, is this, how much more

1640
01:24:50,640 --> 01:24:53,479
Speaker 1: do you trust Bailey's happy to be able to take

1641
01:24:53,560 --> 01:24:56,240
Speaker 1: with respect progressing in the passing game? Like how much

1642
01:24:56,320 --> 01:24:59,400
Speaker 1: more complication are you willing to see added to him?

1643
01:24:59,439 --> 01:25:02,040
Speaker 1: Do you think that he can handle? Because I think

1644
01:25:02,040 --> 01:25:03,680
Speaker 1: it's going to be necessary for this game, because I

1645
01:25:03,760 --> 01:25:06,599
Speaker 1: really think that Cleveland's going to sell out to stop

1646
01:25:06,640 --> 01:25:09,840
Speaker 1: the run, and if we don't have some answers, it

1647
01:25:09,920 --> 01:25:13,640
Speaker 1: could be problematic. Yeah. Yeah, I don't think that. You know,

1648
01:25:14,080 --> 01:25:17,000
Speaker 1: from last week to this week, he's become that much

1649
01:25:17,040 --> 01:25:20,920
Speaker 1: better passing the ball, you know, So like I don't

1650
01:25:20,960 --> 01:25:24,120
Speaker 1: want to add too much more to you know, now,

1651
01:25:24,200 --> 01:25:25,640
Speaker 1: if he's got to throw the ball more than you know,

1652
01:25:25,720 --> 01:25:27,920
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five times, I think you know that's that's

1653
01:25:28,040 --> 01:25:32,000
Speaker 1: it's not unfolding favorably right to the Patriots. Yeah, So,

1654
01:25:32,320 --> 01:25:35,320
Speaker 1: in regard to the quarterback situation, our buddy Mike Giardi

1655
01:25:35,439 --> 01:25:40,479
Speaker 1: tweeted recently seven minutes ago, quick Mac Jones update perse sources.

1656
01:25:40,560 --> 01:25:45,000
Speaker 1: Of course, if the Patriots second year quarterback were to

1657
01:25:45,080 --> 01:25:47,720
Speaker 1: play this weekend, he'd be dealing with some instability in

1658
01:25:47,800 --> 01:25:50,760
Speaker 1: that angle, but depending on how it progresses this week,

1659
01:25:50,840 --> 01:25:54,200
Speaker 1: it could be managed in a variety of ways. The swelling,

1660
01:25:54,280 --> 01:25:58,160
Speaker 1: I'm told has decreased, So a lot of kods and

1661
01:25:58,360 --> 01:26:01,960
Speaker 1: maybe's and who knows, but just you know, another another

1662
01:26:02,080 --> 01:26:06,360
Speaker 1: layer certainly sounds like as expected with the passing weeks,

1663
01:26:06,439 --> 01:26:09,360
Speaker 1: he's getting better and closer to return. I would hope.

1664
01:26:09,360 --> 01:26:11,720
Speaker 1: So no, so no setbacks, I guess is you know,

1665
01:26:11,920 --> 01:26:14,320
Speaker 1: is good news? Like a shot situation kind of things

1666
01:26:14,360 --> 01:26:16,720
Speaker 1: that wouldn't I would have the variety of ways I

1667
01:26:16,760 --> 01:26:18,760
Speaker 1: would think, just tore it all. Yeah, yeah, that's one

1668
01:26:18,800 --> 01:26:21,200
Speaker 1: of them. Yeah. Do they give him that for practice too,

1669
01:26:21,280 --> 01:26:24,960
Speaker 1: or is that just a game only type situation? As games? Yeah,

1670
01:26:26,280 --> 01:26:28,720
Speaker 1: that's a big needle if you're doing it that often. Well,

1671
01:26:28,720 --> 01:26:30,240
Speaker 1: I don't know about every want to win. Yeah, I

1672
01:26:30,280 --> 01:26:32,479
Speaker 1: don't know about every practice, but I do wonder if

1673
01:26:32,560 --> 01:26:35,240
Speaker 1: that's something that you don't want a guy going blind

1674
01:26:35,360 --> 01:26:37,519
Speaker 1: with like he needs to. He's going to step into

1675
01:26:37,560 --> 01:26:38,840
Speaker 1: a game, your game and give him. Oh, I didn't

1676
01:26:38,880 --> 01:26:40,560
Speaker 1: know what was going to feel like that. You know,

1677
01:26:40,920 --> 01:26:44,720
Speaker 1: it's a bill game, and what evident? You can't feel

1678
01:26:44,760 --> 01:26:48,599
Speaker 1: a thing? Yeah, and that's how sometimes getting Yeah, that's

1679
01:26:48,600 --> 01:26:52,120
Speaker 1: how the injuries get exacerbated. Yeah, Um, Alex is a

1680
01:26:52,240 --> 01:26:57,000
Speaker 1: fall river. Hey Alex, not you, Alex, you're here, You're

1681
01:26:58,160 --> 01:27:03,280
Speaker 1: a gone all right? Or Williams and philam what's up? William?

1682
01:27:04,000 --> 01:27:06,840
Speaker 1: What's going on? Then? How are you doing? Good? A

1683
01:27:07,400 --> 01:27:11,360
Speaker 1: two questions and I get back to work. When do

1684
01:27:11,439 --> 01:27:15,479
Speaker 1: you think you'll see? No? Fine, you get to see

1685
01:27:15,560 --> 01:27:20,760
Speaker 1: the death four two weeks? Well say sorry, Yeah, he

1686
01:27:20,880 --> 01:27:24,040
Speaker 1: did play Sunday. Yeah, I mean he's he's I mean,

1687
01:27:24,080 --> 01:27:26,559
Speaker 1: I know he plays Sunday. Yeah, but I think we didn't,

1688
01:27:26,800 --> 01:27:29,160
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Yeah, I try to get

1689
01:27:29,200 --> 01:27:31,479
Speaker 1: that all twenty two? Yeah, I mean this is where

1690
01:27:31,479 --> 01:27:35,000
Speaker 1: I gotta go with Evan's side here strange bedfellows. Yeah,

1691
01:27:35,040 --> 01:27:37,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean if you if you rewatch the game,

1692
01:27:37,160 --> 01:27:40,439
Speaker 1: you just focus on him. You saw some of that speed.

1693
01:27:40,840 --> 01:27:42,639
Speaker 1: But I get what you're saying. When are we gonna

1694
01:27:42,680 --> 01:27:45,000
Speaker 1: like use it? I think when Mats back. I mean, yeah,

1695
01:27:45,040 --> 01:27:46,599
Speaker 1: the way they've been pushing the ball down the field

1696
01:27:46,600 --> 01:27:48,680
Speaker 1: with Mac, I would be very surprised if he you know,

1697
01:27:48,720 --> 01:27:50,400
Speaker 1: when Matt comes back, if they were on some shots

1698
01:27:50,439 --> 01:27:52,880
Speaker 1: to takewon, Yeah, and I won't. I won't even be surprised.

1699
01:27:53,080 --> 01:27:55,439
Speaker 1: You know. Listen, like Paul said, zap be throw the

1700
01:27:55,479 --> 01:27:58,400
Speaker 1: ball downfield last week? You know at least three times,

1701
01:27:58,439 --> 01:28:03,200
Speaker 1: two of them were penalties. You know. Positive. Um, I'm

1702
01:28:03,400 --> 01:28:05,880
Speaker 1: I'm here to tell you I guarantee one shot play

1703
01:28:05,960 --> 01:28:09,000
Speaker 1: to Thornton. This at least one. I like it this week.

1704
01:28:09,120 --> 01:28:11,080
Speaker 1: But they threw the ball down the field in a

1705
01:28:11,200 --> 01:28:14,000
Speaker 1: much different way than Mac was throwing the ball down

1706
01:28:14,040 --> 01:28:17,240
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, but I was not talking about downfield. I

1707
01:28:17,320 --> 01:28:19,400
Speaker 1: was talking about fifty fifty balls, right, Yeah. I heard

1708
01:28:19,600 --> 01:28:22,320
Speaker 1: so many people say, see how much better the offense looks.

1709
01:28:22,479 --> 01:28:25,000
Speaker 1: How many fifty fifty balls did you see? I said, well,

1710
01:28:25,080 --> 01:28:27,000
Speaker 1: three that I can think off the top of my head. Yeah.

1711
01:28:27,320 --> 01:28:31,120
Speaker 1: So look, I have what I'm gonna call the zappy offense.

1712
01:28:31,439 --> 01:28:35,519
Speaker 1: Is the training wheel offense, right, that's the training wheels offense.

1713
01:28:35,560 --> 01:28:37,960
Speaker 1: We got forty percent play action, We have no tight

1714
01:28:38,040 --> 01:28:41,800
Speaker 1: window throws, and we are managing the game in every

1715
01:28:41,880 --> 01:28:44,000
Speaker 1: single direction to make sure that there's not too much

1716
01:28:44,040 --> 01:28:47,160
Speaker 1: on the quarterback. And what I rode and I kind

1717
01:28:47,200 --> 01:28:49,639
Speaker 1: of put that side by side stack comparison on purpose,

1718
01:28:50,000 --> 01:28:52,240
Speaker 1: is because what they were asking Mac to do was

1719
01:28:52,479 --> 01:28:56,040
Speaker 1: so much significantly more than what they were asking Zappy

1720
01:28:56,120 --> 01:28:58,720
Speaker 1: to do, and the numbers bear it out. And they

1721
01:28:58,760 --> 01:29:02,680
Speaker 1: were basically just creating every single open window throw they

1722
01:29:02,720 --> 01:29:06,200
Speaker 1: could possibly think of with Bailey Zappy. And if you're

1723
01:29:06,240 --> 01:29:07,600
Speaker 1: gonna do that, then you're not going to get the

1724
01:29:07,680 --> 01:29:10,200
Speaker 1: downfield throws. You're not going to have those players even

1725
01:29:10,280 --> 01:29:12,400
Speaker 1: with scheme where they're going to be pushing the ball

1726
01:29:12,479 --> 01:29:15,320
Speaker 1: down the field because ultimately those players are not going

1727
01:29:15,400 --> 01:29:18,560
Speaker 1: to be wide open often in the NFL. Yeah, just

1728
01:29:18,880 --> 01:29:21,040
Speaker 1: one more question and then and now I'm not jelling,

1729
01:29:22,120 --> 01:29:25,000
Speaker 1: so I'm all in on man. And my opinion is

1730
01:29:25,040 --> 01:29:27,519
Speaker 1: just basically, I wouldn't bring him ba until after the

1731
01:29:27,600 --> 01:29:29,479
Speaker 1: Beers game. I mean, I'm not going to, I wouldn't

1732
01:29:29,479 --> 01:29:33,040
Speaker 1: whisky from them. I just don't want him to reinjue

1733
01:29:33,120 --> 01:29:34,800
Speaker 1: legal anything for that man, you know what I mean.

1734
01:29:34,880 --> 01:29:37,320
Speaker 1: So yeah, that's just my thing. Okay, y'all take care,

1735
01:29:37,479 --> 01:29:42,000
Speaker 1: all right? Thanks? Yeah, I think I bring him back

1736
01:29:42,040 --> 01:29:46,280
Speaker 1: when he's ready, you know. Yeah, it's simple to Yeah, Unfortunately,

1737
01:29:46,360 --> 01:29:49,200
Speaker 1: it's boring because we don't know when that's gonna be. Yeah,

1738
01:29:49,600 --> 01:29:52,280
Speaker 1: but if he's healthy, I don't wait. I don't wait

1739
01:29:52,320 --> 01:29:54,439
Speaker 1: an extra game work to be done. Get him back.

1740
01:29:54,600 --> 01:29:56,400
Speaker 1: We need more reps, we need to start, you know,

1741
01:29:56,560 --> 01:29:59,080
Speaker 1: getting this thing online with their number one, you know,

1742
01:29:59,200 --> 01:30:04,519
Speaker 1: and then I'm pretty stubborn, but I'm not stupid. If

1743
01:30:04,600 --> 01:30:07,479
Speaker 1: he comes back and he's healthy, and he's continuing to

1744
01:30:07,520 --> 01:30:09,720
Speaker 1: throw the ball all over the place and you know,

1745
01:30:09,960 --> 01:30:12,840
Speaker 1: basically average an interception to game, which he's done, I

1746
01:30:12,880 --> 01:30:16,160
Speaker 1: think he has twenty picks in twenty one games. If

1747
01:30:16,200 --> 01:30:17,960
Speaker 1: he continues to do that and the other kids not

1748
01:30:18,120 --> 01:30:20,920
Speaker 1: doing that, then you might have a conversation to have.

1749
01:30:21,960 --> 01:30:24,479
Speaker 1: But I don't think we're anywhere close to that situation.

1750
01:30:24,600 --> 01:30:28,840
Speaker 1: I think mac Jones is so far advanced. I just

1751
01:30:28,920 --> 01:30:31,760
Speaker 1: go by the very first game when mac Jones was

1752
01:30:31,800 --> 01:30:34,320
Speaker 1: a rookie quarterback playing in his very first game, he

1753
01:30:34,439 --> 01:30:37,160
Speaker 1: attempted thirty nine passes. He was also sacked a few times,

1754
01:30:37,320 --> 01:30:40,559
Speaker 1: so they attempted over forty passes in his first game.

1755
01:30:41,800 --> 01:30:45,439
Speaker 1: They didn't do that with Bailey Zappy, right, it was

1756
01:30:45,479 --> 01:30:52,960
Speaker 1: about half that amount twenty two. Yeah, here's something development

1757
01:30:53,320 --> 01:30:56,080
Speaker 1: Tom writes in from May with Fred calling out Hardy

1758
01:30:56,200 --> 01:30:58,960
Speaker 1: and making a big deal about the ad read. I

1759
01:30:59,040 --> 01:31:01,280
Speaker 1: figured I would check it out myself. It turns out

1760
01:31:01,520 --> 01:31:03,920
Speaker 1: the era in the ad read is not that they

1761
01:31:04,040 --> 01:31:06,720
Speaker 1: neglected to tell you to say dash, but in how

1762
01:31:06,800 --> 01:31:10,080
Speaker 1: they spelled out their own website. Visit ma dot com

1763
01:31:10,240 --> 01:31:14,400
Speaker 1: works but visit dash ma dot com does not. And

1764
01:31:14,600 --> 01:31:16,559
Speaker 1: while I know it's not your fault, Fred, I can't

1765
01:31:16,600 --> 01:31:21,400
Speaker 1: wait for the formal apology to Hardy. Well that's something, yeah,

1766
01:31:21,840 --> 01:31:23,680
Speaker 1: I mean they spell it out with the dash, so

1767
01:31:23,960 --> 01:31:27,160
Speaker 1: they shouldn't do that if it's visit ma dot com. Right,

1768
01:31:27,200 --> 01:31:31,360
Speaker 1: how do you know it's a dash or a dash? Right? Wa? Wa? Yeah?

1769
01:31:32,400 --> 01:31:35,640
Speaker 1: On the keyboard there's a different button to hit. No, no, no,

1770
01:31:35,720 --> 01:31:39,200
Speaker 1: no no. The way they spell it here, it's got

1771
01:31:39,280 --> 01:31:42,880
Speaker 1: a hyphen a dash, right, but the URL does not,

1772
01:31:43,640 --> 01:31:48,560
Speaker 1: so they what is wrong? Oh? So it doesn't have

1773
01:31:48,680 --> 01:31:50,320
Speaker 1: it in there at all. It doesn't have it in there.

1774
01:31:50,439 --> 01:31:54,439
Speaker 1: It's just visit m a right, which makes more sense, right,

1775
01:31:54,600 --> 01:31:57,479
Speaker 1: it does, easy to remember it does. But who wrote

1776
01:31:57,560 --> 01:32:00,640
Speaker 1: this copy? Matt Morrel? You fired? I thought he was

1777
01:32:00,680 --> 01:32:03,400
Speaker 1: saying like somehow like a hyphen is a different character

1778
01:32:03,479 --> 01:32:05,200
Speaker 1: than a dad. No, no, no, no, it's the same

1779
01:32:05,520 --> 01:32:08,439
Speaker 1: I got. I got confused. It's the same character thieve

1780
01:32:08,520 --> 01:32:11,800
Speaker 1: grandpa over in the corner by himself. So this is

1781
01:32:11,840 --> 01:32:16,760
Speaker 1: the video that Hardy. Hardy got it right without knowing

1782
01:32:16,840 --> 01:32:18,640
Speaker 1: he got it, didn't even realize it was Yeah, he does.

1783
01:32:18,680 --> 01:32:22,080
Speaker 1: He gets no credit for that. Upstairs. Yeah, we don't

1784
01:32:22,080 --> 01:32:23,640
Speaker 1: have to We don't have to do that. It's just

1785
01:32:23,720 --> 01:32:27,000
Speaker 1: friend's office. Catherine uh Nielsen Waltham writes, And I was

1786
01:32:27,160 --> 01:32:30,320
Speaker 1: very excited to see Stevenson's great game last week. Can

1787
01:32:30,360 --> 01:32:33,600
Speaker 1: you remember the last time Bill said he loved a

1788
01:32:33,720 --> 01:32:41,479
Speaker 1: current player? No, Um, I don't Teddy Bruski perfect player? Man.

1789
01:32:41,640 --> 01:32:45,240
Speaker 1: My guess is he said it like about Matthew Slater

1790
01:32:45,280 --> 01:32:49,320
Speaker 1: about I mean, I don't know. I do think that

1791
01:32:49,439 --> 01:32:51,519
Speaker 1: his praise. I mean, like I'm not gonna get bogged

1792
01:32:51,520 --> 01:32:55,040
Speaker 1: down at semantics the emailer's point. The praise was different

1793
01:32:55,080 --> 01:32:58,160
Speaker 1: for Stevenson last It was over the take. He's right. Yeah.

1794
01:32:58,360 --> 01:33:00,840
Speaker 1: Didn't he say I love KB on the Greg Hill

1795
01:33:00,920 --> 01:33:02,840
Speaker 1: Show recently? Did he? I don't know, Yeah, I'm not.

1796
01:33:02,960 --> 01:33:04,680
Speaker 1: That's like I said, like, I just think that the

1797
01:33:04,760 --> 01:33:08,200
Speaker 1: way he talked about Stevenson, I told you that I

1798
01:33:08,320 --> 01:33:11,479
Speaker 1: think I think Stevenson is the best player on his team. Yeah,

1799
01:33:11,640 --> 01:33:14,960
Speaker 1: I think he does too. Yeah, I think that's that's

1800
01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:16,519
Speaker 1: the way he talked about. I think he's the best

1801
01:33:16,560 --> 01:33:19,439
Speaker 1: player period. But that's just me. The red sleeves guy

1802
01:33:19,600 --> 01:33:23,400
Speaker 1: might have an argument there. He's playing better maybe, but

1803
01:33:24,000 --> 01:33:27,120
Speaker 1: if he played like if he played Stevenson had games

1804
01:33:27,240 --> 01:33:29,479
Speaker 1: like that and he had a chance to get twenty

1805
01:33:29,520 --> 01:33:34,719
Speaker 1: five carries every game. Uh Bill's also says on Sunday,

1806
01:33:34,800 --> 01:33:37,439
Speaker 1: the way Stevenson was able to shed tacklers reminded me

1807
01:33:37,520 --> 01:33:41,120
Speaker 1: a bit of Lea Garrett Blunt. But he definitely seems

1808
01:33:41,160 --> 01:33:43,000
Speaker 1: two things I never thought I would compare, But it

1809
01:33:43,080 --> 01:33:45,880
Speaker 1: definitely seems quicker than Blunt in his cuts. Is there

1810
01:33:45,920 --> 01:33:49,720
Speaker 1: another former Patriot that would be a better comp for Stevenson,

1811
01:33:49,880 --> 01:33:51,280
Speaker 1: I don't see that. I mean, I just think he's

1812
01:33:51,280 --> 01:33:52,920
Speaker 1: so light on his feet for a big guy. That's

1813
01:33:52,960 --> 01:33:54,720
Speaker 1: what makes him stand out, like Blunt was never that.

1814
01:33:56,560 --> 01:34:00,800
Speaker 1: Andy's Van Bell. Yeah, so Levian Bell. First of all,

1815
01:34:00,880 --> 01:34:02,920
Speaker 1: I don't know where Patriots fans have this idea that

1816
01:34:03,040 --> 01:34:05,600
Speaker 1: Lagarret Blunt was some elusive runner, but this comes up

1817
01:34:05,640 --> 01:34:07,800
Speaker 1: all the time. He wasn't that Lagarret Blunt. Was like

1818
01:34:07,880 --> 01:34:13,240
Speaker 1: this like Larry Sanders, right, Like he had fifteen touchdowns,

1819
01:34:13,280 --> 01:34:15,160
Speaker 1: so that meant he was good. I looked this up

1820
01:34:15,400 --> 01:34:17,920
Speaker 1: yesterday because of course me and barth Off the Air

1821
01:34:18,000 --> 01:34:20,640
Speaker 1: were in an argument about la Garrett Blunt and UH.

1822
01:34:21,160 --> 01:34:23,519
Speaker 1: In twenty and sixteen, which was Lagarret Bund's big season

1823
01:34:23,560 --> 01:34:25,760
Speaker 1: with the Patriots, he had like nineteen touchdowns or something

1824
01:34:25,840 --> 01:34:29,040
Speaker 1: like that. He averaged just over two yards after contact

1825
01:34:29,120 --> 01:34:31,560
Speaker 1: per rush, which is below league average. Like this was

1826
01:34:32,120 --> 01:34:35,080
Speaker 1: a bowling ball, right, You get him downhill, the line

1827
01:34:35,120 --> 01:34:37,400
Speaker 1: opens up a hole, and once he gets going, he's

1828
01:34:37,439 --> 01:34:39,960
Speaker 1: like a train, right that That's that's true, But this

1829
01:34:40,120 --> 01:34:42,599
Speaker 1: was not an all would he would tippy toe behind

1830
01:34:42,640 --> 01:34:44,920
Speaker 1: the line and get caught behind. The one thing I

1831
01:34:44,960 --> 01:34:49,280
Speaker 1: would say about Blunt that was um a big positive

1832
01:34:49,320 --> 01:34:53,040
Speaker 1: in his category that was sort of rare, was for

1833
01:34:53,120 --> 01:34:56,960
Speaker 1: a guy that size, when he did get to that level,

1834
01:34:57,280 --> 01:34:59,280
Speaker 1: he could he could be Yeah he was moving, Yeah

1835
01:34:59,439 --> 01:35:01,320
Speaker 1: he wasn't he He was not getting caught a lot

1836
01:35:01,640 --> 01:35:05,040
Speaker 1: um once he broke free. And for a guy that

1837
01:35:05,280 --> 01:35:07,960
Speaker 1: bat size, I agree with though, Like in the backfield,

1838
01:35:08,600 --> 01:35:11,320
Speaker 1: how many times you say stop dancing? Right? He was

1839
01:35:11,720 --> 01:35:13,560
Speaker 1: you know, he needed to get three yards out and

1840
01:35:14,640 --> 01:35:17,120
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, it's See. The thing about Remandre

1841
01:35:17,720 --> 01:35:20,160
Speaker 1: is when he's in a tight spot, like his feet

1842
01:35:20,880 --> 01:35:23,960
Speaker 1: aren't too close together, like he's got equal balance so

1843
01:35:24,040 --> 01:35:26,560
Speaker 1: he can go either way. And he's very shifty in

1844
01:35:26,680 --> 01:35:30,040
Speaker 1: small spaces. Blunt was not, but he's still big. But

1845
01:35:30,160 --> 01:35:32,360
Speaker 1: he was. It was weird because he was fast. It

1846
01:35:32,520 --> 01:35:35,080
Speaker 1: was fast. It doesn't have that nimble quick. But that's

1847
01:35:35,120 --> 01:35:38,200
Speaker 1: different about quick being in a phone booth and having

1848
01:35:38,280 --> 01:35:40,799
Speaker 1: to maneuver out of it. And it just makes Remander

1849
01:35:40,960 --> 01:35:43,760
Speaker 1: so unique is that he hasn't I bet you Alex

1850
01:35:43,840 --> 01:35:47,320
Speaker 1: doesn't know what a phone booth is. Okay, all right,

1851
01:35:48,200 --> 01:35:52,320
Speaker 1: that was the problem right there, too young yeah telling well,

1852
01:35:52,320 --> 01:35:54,800
Speaker 1: you'll look you up, Thank you could company. I needed

1853
01:35:54,800 --> 01:35:57,680
Speaker 1: to hear that. My birthday this month, birthday where I'm

1854
01:35:57,680 --> 01:35:59,840
Speaker 1: going to start stop telling people in my remote good

1855
01:36:00,040 --> 01:36:04,000
Speaker 1: rinking age thirty time, twenty eight took a shot twenty seven?

1856
01:36:04,479 --> 01:36:06,479
Speaker 1: Why would why would you get why would you go

1857
01:36:06,600 --> 01:36:08,800
Speaker 1: to twenty eight as the cutoff? When you stopped telling

1858
01:36:08,840 --> 01:36:12,559
Speaker 1: people your age? It's a milestone birthday, Yeah it's thirty forty,

1859
01:36:12,640 --> 01:36:15,240
Speaker 1: but then you have to say you're thirty forever. Same twenty.

1860
01:36:15,280 --> 01:36:18,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm just gonna say you twenty eight. Somebody's

1861
01:36:18,280 --> 01:36:20,439
Speaker 1: got a big thirtieth birthday coming up on the road

1862
01:36:20,479 --> 01:36:22,960
Speaker 1: this year. Somebody that's about to turn thirty and about

1863
01:36:23,000 --> 01:36:28,479
Speaker 1: six weeks, I don't want to talk thirty. He's going

1864
01:36:28,520 --> 01:36:31,320
Speaker 1: to be in Vegas though, for Arizona or Arizona. When

1865
01:36:31,360 --> 01:36:32,920
Speaker 1: are you turn in? When are you turn in? Sixty?

1866
01:36:32,960 --> 01:36:40,000
Speaker 1: Friend turning sixty, I'm eighty two tomorrow. I just you know,

1867
01:36:40,160 --> 01:36:45,080
Speaker 1: look like I'm yeah. Last year, Remandre was talking. We

1868
01:36:45,120 --> 01:36:47,960
Speaker 1: were talking to Remandre and everybody always asked young players like,

1869
01:36:48,000 --> 01:36:50,880
Speaker 1: who's the guy that you idolized growing up? Who's the

1870
01:36:50,920 --> 01:36:53,240
Speaker 1: guy you modeled your game after? And leave On Bell

1871
01:36:53,520 --> 01:36:57,320
Speaker 1: was his answer. So when he said that, nobody were

1872
01:36:57,400 --> 01:36:59,479
Speaker 1: all like, well, you're two hundred and thirty pounds, what

1873
01:36:59,560 --> 01:37:01,280
Speaker 1: do you mean. Leveon Bell is a bigger guy too,

1874
01:37:01,360 --> 01:37:03,680
Speaker 1: but he wasn't Remandre's size, and they were like, yeah,

1875
01:37:03,680 --> 01:37:06,479
Speaker 1: I mean, you're not really like that, Like he didn't.

1876
01:37:06,600 --> 01:37:08,840
Speaker 1: It wasn't like, you know, like Garret Blunt. They're like

1877
01:37:08,960 --> 01:37:11,120
Speaker 1: somebody that was a bigger running back, and I know,

1878
01:37:11,200 --> 01:37:14,280
Speaker 1: he said, Levan Bell such a weird person. Alike. I mean,

1879
01:37:14,320 --> 01:37:16,040
Speaker 1: I know he was good, but like just the style

1880
01:37:16,200 --> 01:37:20,200
Speaker 1: of of like, that's what of his ability to make

1881
01:37:20,280 --> 01:37:23,679
Speaker 1: guys miss in tight quarters reminds me of Levy and Bell. Yeah,

1882
01:37:23,720 --> 01:37:25,280
Speaker 1: that's why when Andy said that, I was like, yeah,

1883
01:37:25,479 --> 01:37:27,720
Speaker 1: but I do see the different style though. Bell was

1884
01:37:27,800 --> 01:37:30,160
Speaker 1: more like hand in the back of his blocker and

1885
01:37:30,240 --> 01:37:33,080
Speaker 1: then boom. Then he would just burst either way, it

1886
01:37:33,160 --> 01:37:36,120
Speaker 1: was a slow development. Yeah, it was just all of

1887
01:37:36,200 --> 01:37:38,920
Speaker 1: a sudden and then boom out. But never really I mean,

1888
01:37:38,960 --> 01:37:41,639
Speaker 1: how many good years did he have? I mean problem

1889
01:37:42,000 --> 01:37:44,000
Speaker 1: he racked up four hundred plus carries a year at

1890
01:37:44,040 --> 01:37:47,880
Speaker 1: Michigan State. That was his problem. Yeah, Zach and Pennsylvania says.

1891
01:37:47,880 --> 01:37:50,880
Speaker 1: My opinion on why video is in such demand If

1892
01:37:50,920 --> 01:37:53,600
Speaker 1: anyone else is like I am, It's like I like

1893
01:37:53,760 --> 01:37:56,040
Speaker 1: to listen when I'm eating lunch. I can't speak for

1894
01:37:56,120 --> 01:37:58,600
Speaker 1: anyone else, but when I'm eating I always like to

1895
01:37:58,680 --> 01:38:02,479
Speaker 1: have something to stimulate me visually. That wouldn't be a

1896
01:38:02,560 --> 01:38:06,120
Speaker 1: welcome buddy. Yeah, I'm sorry, sorry to let you down. Yeah,

1897
01:38:06,880 --> 01:38:09,080
Speaker 1: maybe this is how other people are feeling. Love the show.

1898
01:38:09,200 --> 01:38:14,799
Speaker 1: Look forward to every segment so so far, everybody everybody

1899
01:38:14,840 --> 01:38:17,080
Speaker 1: wants video. He was listed at two twenty five. He

1900
01:38:17,160 --> 01:38:21,479
Speaker 1: was pretty big too. Yeah. Yeah. Just to answer Mike's question,

1901
01:38:21,520 --> 01:38:23,800
Speaker 1: though I looked up his stats, he had like that

1902
01:38:23,960 --> 01:38:26,040
Speaker 1: five year, it was a pretty good five year with

1903
01:38:26,120 --> 01:38:31,000
Speaker 1: the Steelers from thirteen to seventeen. He had one year

1904
01:38:31,080 --> 01:38:33,000
Speaker 1: that he only had six games played, but he had

1905
01:38:33,040 --> 01:38:35,559
Speaker 1: five hundred and fifty six yards in those six games.

1906
01:38:35,960 --> 01:38:41,320
Speaker 1: But it was thirteen sixty twelve sixty thirteen hundred rookie year,

1907
01:38:41,800 --> 01:38:46,000
Speaker 1: eight sixty and eight eight seven nine touchdown, like really productive.

1908
01:38:46,040 --> 01:38:48,800
Speaker 1: And he was always a good receiver too. Ye. Yeah,

1909
01:38:49,280 --> 01:38:51,320
Speaker 1: that's a part of the game that I think Rmandre

1910
01:38:51,360 --> 01:38:54,120
Speaker 1: has come along in the passing game. But eighty three

1911
01:38:54,160 --> 01:38:56,799
Speaker 1: catches one of those bell is basically a wide receiver

1912
01:38:57,120 --> 01:38:59,240
Speaker 1: when he was in his prime with the Steelers, and

1913
01:38:59,400 --> 01:39:02,280
Speaker 1: he want to get he said that he was I

1914
01:39:02,479 --> 01:39:04,320
Speaker 1: think I am a running back and a wide receiver,

1915
01:39:04,479 --> 01:39:07,200
Speaker 1: kind of like the argument that Debo makes right Miss

1916
01:39:07,200 --> 01:39:09,840
Speaker 1: San Francisco. I don't know if Vermandre is quite on

1917
01:39:09,920 --> 01:39:11,920
Speaker 1: that level yet where we're talking about him. Then he

1918
01:39:12,000 --> 01:39:17,919
Speaker 1: held out, yeah, and it fell in. Vermont said podcasts

1919
01:39:17,960 --> 01:39:20,920
Speaker 1: are great, but personally, I feel they're most enjoyable during

1920
01:39:21,000 --> 01:39:24,640
Speaker 1: other activities such as driving, mowing the lawn, etc. I

1921
01:39:24,760 --> 01:39:26,840
Speaker 1: love listening to you all, but once I'm done with

1922
01:39:26,960 --> 01:39:28,800
Speaker 1: my activities at the end of the day, I don't

1923
01:39:28,840 --> 01:39:31,559
Speaker 1: want to just sit with earbuds in and stare creepily

1924
01:39:31,640 --> 01:39:34,479
Speaker 1: into space. I want to grab some diet Millers, fall

1925
01:39:34,560 --> 01:39:37,519
Speaker 1: into the recliner and stare at the TV. There's just

1926
01:39:37,680 --> 01:39:41,280
Speaker 1: something about the additional visual stimulant. I feel many would

1927
01:39:41,280 --> 01:39:43,960
Speaker 1: agree it works for the postgame show. You guys should

1928
01:39:44,080 --> 01:39:47,200
Speaker 1: just do it. It's funny. I'm remembering when I was

1929
01:39:47,280 --> 01:39:49,960
Speaker 1: like in early college, late high school, got into Howard

1930
01:39:50,000 --> 01:39:53,360
Speaker 1: Stern back when he was on regular radio, and how

1931
01:39:53,400 --> 01:39:56,679
Speaker 1: cool it was finding e and entertainment that they would

1932
01:39:56,680 --> 01:39:59,519
Speaker 1: at night broadcast like the segments and like to actually

1933
01:39:59,600 --> 01:40:02,040
Speaker 1: see what the guys look like. You have such an

1934
01:40:02,160 --> 01:40:04,519
Speaker 1: you know, like you picture a certain way, but then

1935
01:40:04,560 --> 01:40:06,840
Speaker 1: you finally swaying me on it. As I agree, I

1936
01:40:07,360 --> 01:40:09,080
Speaker 1: was taken the same way, like, oh, I wonder what

1937
01:40:09,120 --> 01:40:11,040
Speaker 1: they all really look like. I wonder what I wonder

1938
01:40:11,080 --> 01:40:15,439
Speaker 1: how they interact and whatnot. And Jackie Martling. But it's

1939
01:40:15,479 --> 01:40:17,439
Speaker 1: gonna change how you and I are, Paul. I mean,

1940
01:40:17,560 --> 01:40:19,760
Speaker 1: right now, we've got already been knew we've got one

1941
01:40:19,880 --> 01:40:22,200
Speaker 1: sitting out here and we have to care about how

1942
01:40:22,280 --> 01:40:25,880
Speaker 1: we look anymore. Yeah. I just think the one thing

1943
01:40:25,960 --> 01:40:28,080
Speaker 1: we need to adjust, Fred is that instead of looking

1944
01:40:28,120 --> 01:40:30,120
Speaker 1: at me and doing the eyebrow thing when you're trying

1945
01:40:30,120 --> 01:40:32,280
Speaker 1: to get Paul going, you gotta get they gotta get something.

1946
01:40:32,439 --> 01:40:35,040
Speaker 1: It's gonna break the fourth wall at that moment, and

1947
01:40:35,160 --> 01:40:41,280
Speaker 1: I'd be like, he's doing it again. It's good time. Oh,

1948
01:40:42,000 --> 01:40:48,879
Speaker 1: I have a voiceover guy Timothy, Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

1949
01:40:49,160 --> 01:40:52,760
Speaker 1: I emailed last week about Zappy looking more confident than Mac,

1950
01:40:53,160 --> 01:40:56,040
Speaker 1: and I think I triggered Evan with the question, and

1951
01:40:56,560 --> 01:40:58,880
Speaker 1: I do apologize for that. I think what I was

1952
01:40:59,000 --> 01:41:02,000
Speaker 1: trying to say it's kind of what Alex Barth mentioned

1953
01:41:02,120 --> 01:41:05,400
Speaker 1: Uncatched twenty two. I think Zappy turns the ball over

1954
01:41:05,560 --> 01:41:08,840
Speaker 1: way less than Mac. But after watching Zappy for two

1955
01:41:08,920 --> 01:41:12,120
Speaker 1: games now, I think that's more by design than Zappy

1956
01:41:12,280 --> 01:41:14,720
Speaker 1: just playing better than Matt. Thank you who is that?

1957
01:41:15,200 --> 01:41:17,120
Speaker 1: This is Tim, Tim, I'm getting through to you. I

1958
01:41:17,160 --> 01:41:19,519
Speaker 1: think I think I don't know he's turned it over

1959
01:41:19,600 --> 01:41:22,200
Speaker 1: twice in two games. My question is, what do you

1960
01:41:22,280 --> 01:41:25,120
Speaker 1: guys think would need to happen for Zappy and Mac

1961
01:41:25,160 --> 01:41:29,760
Speaker 1: to be in a true quarterback controversy, I think I

1962
01:41:29,880 --> 01:41:32,479
Speaker 1: think Mac would have to have a setback, which would

1963
01:41:32,520 --> 01:41:35,519
Speaker 1: allow Zappy to play five more games and he wins

1964
01:41:35,600 --> 01:41:37,160
Speaker 1: every one of them. I think Mac would have to

1965
01:41:37,200 --> 01:41:39,000
Speaker 1: do something. I think it's Pauls thing. I think it's

1966
01:41:39,120 --> 01:41:41,519
Speaker 1: Matt comes back and it's an interception fest and they

1967
01:41:41,560 --> 01:41:44,599
Speaker 1: can't win, and it just gets why I don't say

1968
01:41:44,760 --> 01:41:50,280
Speaker 1: zero percent like to revisit Andy's thing with I don't

1969
01:41:50,280 --> 01:41:54,000
Speaker 1: think it's likely. But I don't think it's about football either.

1970
01:41:54,439 --> 01:41:56,960
Speaker 1: If there's a change, this is because like you know,

1971
01:41:57,000 --> 01:41:59,080
Speaker 1: every and I talked about this, like throughout the game,

1972
01:41:59,120 --> 01:42:01,720
Speaker 1: I was talking about like triggering. I was really doing

1973
01:42:01,760 --> 01:42:03,720
Speaker 1: my best to get under evan skin during the game.

1974
01:42:04,040 --> 01:42:06,200
Speaker 1: Every time Zappy made a play, I kept looking at Ever,

1975
01:42:07,920 --> 01:42:11,280
Speaker 1: I kept I kept going, Hey, you're gonna have a

1976
01:42:11,360 --> 01:42:16,560
Speaker 1: tough week. He did say that, Like no, really, like

1977
01:42:16,720 --> 01:42:19,360
Speaker 1: really because like you know me, like if the game

1978
01:42:19,479 --> 01:42:22,000
Speaker 1: is close, I get into it. When I deemed the

1979
01:42:22,040 --> 01:42:23,920
Speaker 1: game over, and you know, sometimes I'm wrong. When I

1980
01:42:24,000 --> 01:42:27,200
Speaker 1: deemed the game the game over very early, and I

1981
01:42:27,320 --> 01:42:29,200
Speaker 1: just basically took the rest of the game off and

1982
01:42:29,320 --> 01:42:32,600
Speaker 1: it just tried to get ewer and it worked. I

1983
01:42:32,680 --> 01:42:34,599
Speaker 1: got my my notebook in front of me. I'm trying

1984
01:42:34,640 --> 01:42:39,080
Speaker 1: to chart the game start. He's charting formation. I'm trying.

1985
01:42:39,600 --> 01:42:46,960
Speaker 1: I got tough personnel here, and let some smoke on

1986
01:42:47,040 --> 01:42:48,840
Speaker 1: that one. See that five yard hitch she just threw.

1987
01:42:49,120 --> 01:42:52,080
Speaker 1: My goodness, you see it come out so like the

1988
01:42:52,360 --> 01:42:54,360
Speaker 1: cost stepped up in the pocket, got out of the

1989
01:42:55,000 --> 01:42:56,920
Speaker 1: I can't get out of the poet like that, you know,

1990
01:42:57,320 --> 01:42:59,599
Speaker 1: fun that I had a side. I agree with Evan

1991
01:42:59,760 --> 01:43:03,839
Speaker 1: on mac jones ability, and by comparison to Bailey's appies,

1992
01:43:04,880 --> 01:43:06,920
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think it would be football though. Fred.

1993
01:43:07,000 --> 01:43:10,519
Speaker 1: I think if if something happens to mac Jones, it's

1994
01:43:10,560 --> 01:43:13,280
Speaker 1: like what we talked about all summer. I know, the

1995
01:43:13,360 --> 01:43:16,120
Speaker 1: media driven narratives. They weren't real narratives, they were just

1996
01:43:16,200 --> 01:43:18,640
Speaker 1: media driven. I think we're in the media, so I

1997
01:43:18,720 --> 01:43:24,640
Speaker 1: guess we can talk about him. He wasn't seemingly comfortable

1998
01:43:24,760 --> 01:43:27,320
Speaker 1: and on board with everything they were doing. He was,

1999
01:43:27,920 --> 01:43:32,000
Speaker 1: you know, kind of hemming and horror at his press conferences.

2000
01:43:32,040 --> 01:43:34,800
Speaker 1: They got better, I thought as Camp went on, but

2001
01:43:34,920 --> 01:43:37,040
Speaker 1: I think he wondered, what what do we why we

2002
01:43:37,160 --> 01:43:41,439
Speaker 1: have defensive coaches coaching offense. Like basically, long story short,

2003
01:43:41,479 --> 01:43:44,120
Speaker 1: I'll say, if they don't really think he's on board

2004
01:43:44,240 --> 01:43:45,640
Speaker 1: with what they want to do, when they think the

2005
01:43:45,720 --> 01:43:50,160
Speaker 1: other kids more coachable, Yeah, I think that there could

2006
01:43:50,200 --> 01:43:52,879
Speaker 1: be a change. If you're just judging it by cheer ability,

2007
01:43:53,400 --> 01:43:55,880
Speaker 1: I don't think it's very close. Yeah. I think A

2008
01:43:55,960 --> 01:43:58,200
Speaker 1: big thing too, to your point is in the summer,

2009
01:43:58,200 --> 01:44:00,320
Speaker 1: at beginning part of the summer, we saw so much

2010
01:44:00,360 --> 01:44:03,240
Speaker 1: outside zone, so much bootleg, all that kind of stuff,

2011
01:44:03,600 --> 01:44:05,960
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden was gone and they get

2012
01:44:06,000 --> 01:44:08,400
Speaker 1: them in out even week one. But you look at

2013
01:44:08,400 --> 01:44:12,639
Speaker 1: two and three specifically, and they're shotgun, they're spread their

2014
01:44:12,840 --> 01:44:16,080
Speaker 1: very little play action. They got a couple of inklings

2015
01:44:16,120 --> 01:44:18,559
Speaker 1: of RPOs in there, and all of a sudden you're like, well,

2016
01:44:18,600 --> 01:44:21,080
Speaker 1: wait a second, like this looks like Alabama. Like now

2017
01:44:21,240 --> 01:44:23,840
Speaker 1: this is did what did Max say? Right? What did

2018
01:44:23,920 --> 01:44:27,599
Speaker 1: what did Mac do? Because this they're building this whole thing,

2019
01:44:27,920 --> 01:44:30,760
Speaker 1: I'm not doing it around Max, so right, and if

2020
01:44:30,880 --> 01:44:33,880
Speaker 1: he comes out and he doesn't play well when they

2021
01:44:34,000 --> 01:44:37,760
Speaker 1: have changed the entire offense for him, Mac refused to

2022
01:44:37,840 --> 01:44:41,760
Speaker 1: eat his vegetables, then that does give even me a

2023
01:44:41,840 --> 01:44:45,720
Speaker 1: Max stand some pause because we did this for you,

2024
01:44:46,320 --> 01:44:49,080
Speaker 1: like we learned how to play like this in a

2025
01:44:49,200 --> 01:44:53,640
Speaker 1: spread offense with RPOs with all shotgun with not a

2026
01:44:53,760 --> 01:44:57,280
Speaker 1: lot of true natural under center play action because you

2027
01:44:57,400 --> 01:45:00,719
Speaker 1: told us it wasn't working, and now we're doing your thing. Yeah,

2028
01:45:00,800 --> 01:45:04,439
Speaker 1: and you're throwing two picks a game, so that Dad's

2029
01:45:04,479 --> 01:45:07,680
Speaker 1: definitely where it would be for me. But you have

2030
01:45:07,760 --> 01:45:09,920
Speaker 1: to give him the rope to be able to see right. Well,

2031
01:45:09,960 --> 01:45:12,320
Speaker 1: you know how long it goes for before you start

2032
01:45:12,360 --> 01:45:15,000
Speaker 1: to pull the plug. So wait, wait, just real quick. Yep.

2033
01:45:17,000 --> 01:45:19,519
Speaker 1: That's if he doesn't play well doing it the way

2034
01:45:19,800 --> 01:45:21,960
Speaker 1: that they sort of changed for him, the way Evant

2035
01:45:22,000 --> 01:45:25,960
Speaker 1: just explained. Yea, what if they look and say, you

2036
01:45:26,000 --> 01:45:28,280
Speaker 1: know what, we did all these changes for him and

2037
01:45:28,439 --> 01:45:31,519
Speaker 1: he was throwing a lot of interceptions. This sort of

2038
01:45:31,600 --> 01:45:34,280
Speaker 1: more conservative approach that we used for large stretches of

2039
01:45:34,400 --> 01:45:38,200
Speaker 1: last year we had success with and Zappy had success

2040
01:45:38,240 --> 01:45:41,400
Speaker 1: with it. So we're going back to that. So Mac,

2041
01:45:41,560 --> 01:45:44,040
Speaker 1: you're not going to be throwing it down the field more.

2042
01:45:44,120 --> 01:45:45,600
Speaker 1: You're not going to be doing this, that and the

2043
01:45:45,640 --> 01:45:48,120
Speaker 1: other thing. You're gonna do what we were doing the

2044
01:45:48,200 --> 01:45:50,120
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks because we haven't success with that,

2045
01:45:50,280 --> 01:45:53,800
Speaker 1: and in turn Mac doesn't like it. Yeah, that's what

2046
01:45:53,920 --> 01:45:55,720
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. Like, I think there would have to

2047
01:45:55,760 --> 01:46:01,120
Speaker 1: be some sort of conflict beyond football, okay for him

2048
01:46:01,160 --> 01:46:03,080
Speaker 1: to lose his job. But I also think it's totally

2049
01:46:03,200 --> 01:46:06,880
Speaker 1: fair from Mac to not like it, absolutely because not

2050
01:46:07,080 --> 01:46:10,000
Speaker 1: just about his accolades and making forty million dollars a

2051
01:46:10,040 --> 01:46:12,639
Speaker 1: year anything like that. There's a really good Nick Saban

2052
01:46:12,840 --> 01:46:15,799
Speaker 1: quote from around like twenty fifteen, twenty and sixteen, Alabama

2053
01:46:15,880 --> 01:46:18,799
Speaker 1: had just lost in the National Championship Game. First world problem.

2054
01:46:18,880 --> 01:46:21,000
Speaker 1: But Nick Saban went into the off season and hired

2055
01:46:21,080 --> 01:46:23,720
Speaker 1: Lane Kiffen, and he said to himself, if I'm going

2056
01:46:23,800 --> 01:46:26,640
Speaker 1: to compete in football now, we have to compete on

2057
01:46:26,720 --> 01:46:29,800
Speaker 1: the scoreboard. We can't win games running the football and

2058
01:46:29,880 --> 01:46:33,200
Speaker 1: playing good and famously said, you can't play great defense anymore. Right,

2059
01:46:33,360 --> 01:46:36,439
Speaker 1: And so they completely changed their offensive Alabama. They became

2060
01:46:36,479 --> 01:46:39,760
Speaker 1: a spread system. They started recruiting wide receivers and quarterbacks

2061
01:46:39,800 --> 01:46:41,760
Speaker 1: and now they have seventeen of them every single year.

2062
01:46:42,040 --> 01:46:43,559
Speaker 1: You know, Bryce Down gets hurt and they just put

2063
01:46:43,640 --> 01:46:45,280
Speaker 1: in the next guy and he's almost just as good

2064
01:46:45,280 --> 01:46:49,479
Speaker 1: as Bryce Young. Like this is anyway, Yeah, well maybe

2065
01:46:49,560 --> 01:46:52,200
Speaker 1: not not not in this instance, but when Matt when

2066
01:46:52,240 --> 01:46:54,320
Speaker 1: you know two gets hurt and it's Mac or it's

2067
01:46:54,360 --> 01:46:57,840
Speaker 1: Jalen hurts or whatever and that era. So Nick Saban

2068
01:46:57,880 --> 01:47:00,120
Speaker 1: recognized it, and I think Mac took note of it

2069
01:47:00,240 --> 01:47:03,120
Speaker 1: and said, you know, if we're gonna beat Buffalo, if

2070
01:47:03,120 --> 01:47:05,720
Speaker 1: we're gonna beat Kansas City, like I'm gonna go toe

2071
01:47:05,760 --> 01:47:08,840
Speaker 1: to toe with Josh Allen with this offense. Like it's

2072
01:47:08,880 --> 01:47:10,879
Speaker 1: not like if you played offense the way the Patriots

2073
01:47:10,960 --> 01:47:13,160
Speaker 1: did on Sunday against Buffalo or Kansas City, what do

2074
01:47:13,200 --> 01:47:15,240
Speaker 1: you think of the result would have been forty two

2075
01:47:15,280 --> 01:47:18,240
Speaker 1: to three. Yeah, because they wouldn't have been able to

2076
01:47:18,320 --> 01:47:19,840
Speaker 1: kick all those field goals because they would have been

2077
01:47:19,880 --> 01:47:21,880
Speaker 1: like Dan Campbell having to go for it a fort right,

2078
01:47:22,960 --> 01:47:25,519
Speaker 1: you know. Like that's I think that's the point. And

2079
01:47:25,800 --> 01:47:28,360
Speaker 1: that's what I'm getting at with Matt, Like clearly he's

2080
01:47:29,080 --> 01:47:32,599
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's entitled to anything or he's owed anything,

2081
01:47:33,920 --> 01:47:36,080
Speaker 1: but I think that you saw a ceiling with the

2082
01:47:36,160 --> 01:47:38,240
Speaker 1: way they played last year. I think the coaches are

2083
01:47:38,280 --> 01:47:41,280
Speaker 1: at too. That's why they did what they did. That's

2084
01:47:41,320 --> 01:47:44,280
Speaker 1: why they decided to try to incorporate more downfield passing

2085
01:47:44,840 --> 01:47:48,280
Speaker 1: and different kinds of running like they're looking for bigger plays. Again.

2086
01:47:48,560 --> 01:47:52,919
Speaker 1: I know, I sound like a broken record. The Patriots

2087
01:47:52,960 --> 01:47:57,280
Speaker 1: were easy to defend last year. That's not my words.

2088
01:47:57,360 --> 01:48:00,960
Speaker 1: Those awards of at least one other defender who I

2089
01:48:01,080 --> 01:48:04,240
Speaker 1: forget who it was, but the Patriots are easy to defend.

2090
01:48:04,960 --> 01:48:07,000
Speaker 1: You can't be that in the NFL, and playing the

2091
01:48:07,080 --> 01:48:10,560
Speaker 1: way they did Sunday, they were easy to defend on

2092
01:48:10,680 --> 01:48:14,400
Speaker 1: a terrible defense held him I don't know, fifteen points

2093
01:48:14,439 --> 01:48:20,840
Speaker 1: below the season average whatever it was, twenty two, fourteen points.

2094
01:48:21,160 --> 01:48:23,519
Speaker 1: Joe and Orlando says, not sure if it's been asked yet,

2095
01:48:23,560 --> 01:48:26,680
Speaker 1: but what do you think Zappy can do or can

2096
01:48:26,760 --> 01:48:29,479
Speaker 1: he do enough during his stint to secure the backup

2097
01:48:29,560 --> 01:48:33,439
Speaker 1: spot this year? I think for sure, I think that

2098
01:48:35,120 --> 01:48:36,519
Speaker 1: you know, and we don't know this for sure, but

2099
01:48:36,600 --> 01:48:40,000
Speaker 1: I think Brian Hoyer is not well right now. I

2100
01:48:40,120 --> 01:48:41,840
Speaker 1: know that I got a question in the mail back

2101
01:48:41,880 --> 01:48:44,160
Speaker 1: this week. They put them on Iah. Where does that

2102
01:48:44,240 --> 01:48:47,439
Speaker 1: tell you what they think about? Hoyer tells me they

2103
01:48:47,479 --> 01:48:50,639
Speaker 1: has a pretty significant concussion. That's what it tells me. Now.

2104
01:48:50,760 --> 01:48:54,280
Speaker 1: I get you can't have two quarterbacks that are definitely

2105
01:48:54,360 --> 01:48:56,960
Speaker 1: not going to be on the game day roster you can't,

2106
01:48:57,040 --> 01:48:59,280
Speaker 1: so they had to sort of make a move. I

2107
01:48:59,400 --> 01:49:02,519
Speaker 1: don't think that that was done solely for football reasons.

2108
01:49:02,560 --> 01:49:05,639
Speaker 1: I think it had to be done. That's just my opinion.

2109
01:49:05,720 --> 01:49:08,880
Speaker 1: I think he had a significant concussion I saw. I

2110
01:49:08,920 --> 01:49:10,880
Speaker 1: think it was Phil Perry. We'll see. Maybe he'll be

2111
01:49:10,920 --> 01:49:13,360
Speaker 1: back in three weeks and I'll look dumb, but I mean,

2112
01:49:13,479 --> 01:49:15,280
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think it was Phil that tweeted

2113
01:49:15,320 --> 01:49:19,360
Speaker 1: they saw just Poyer around as byan. Hoyer did not

2114
01:49:19,520 --> 01:49:22,120
Speaker 1: did head out to practice fields today in sweats, suffered

2115
01:49:22,160 --> 01:49:24,680
Speaker 1: a concussion in Green Bay. Still not practicing. So I

2116
01:49:24,720 --> 01:49:27,040
Speaker 1: wouldn't be I wouldn't be surprised if Poyer is the

2117
01:49:27,120 --> 01:49:29,200
Speaker 1: backup from here on in, I would not be surprised

2118
01:49:29,200 --> 01:49:32,200
Speaker 1: at all. I mean, Zappy, Yeah, I mean not to

2119
01:49:32,280 --> 01:49:35,120
Speaker 1: pick on Brian Hoyer, but like he's here to basically

2120
01:49:35,200 --> 01:49:37,400
Speaker 1: be a coach to Mac Jones and to Bailey z

2121
01:49:37,400 --> 01:49:40,120
Speaker 1: Appy at this point too. So no offense. But if

2122
01:49:40,120 --> 01:49:43,320
Speaker 1: he's on IR, he can still help him, right, So

2123
01:49:43,880 --> 01:49:47,360
Speaker 1: put him on IR every year? Right? Yeah? Um, Emailer says,

2124
01:49:47,439 --> 01:49:50,240
Speaker 1: no disrespect to your current podcast team, but when Andy

2125
01:49:50,360 --> 01:49:54,040
Speaker 1: stops by, he intensifies the mood. But I do realize

2126
01:49:54,080 --> 01:49:55,960
Speaker 1: that he's like Heroin to you guys. You can only

2127
01:49:56,000 --> 01:49:59,000
Speaker 1: take him in small doses. But the thing about Andy

2128
01:49:59,680 --> 01:50:01,200
Speaker 1: is that he he does that a lot. He'll start

2129
01:50:01,240 --> 01:50:04,840
Speaker 1: off and then the second hours he's run out of steams,

2130
01:50:05,520 --> 01:50:08,439
Speaker 1: like a kid who's on candy and just crashes. Well,

2131
01:50:08,439 --> 01:50:10,640
Speaker 1: I just thought funny. Like off air, ninety percent of

2132
01:50:10,680 --> 01:50:13,679
Speaker 1: the conversation was like about Andy butting heads with various

2133
01:50:13,760 --> 01:50:18,800
Speaker 1: people that he had to work with in a good way,

2134
01:50:18,960 --> 01:50:25,920
Speaker 1: in a good way, uh ding ding Barth comes, Rick's

2135
01:50:25,960 --> 01:50:30,320
Speaker 1: broke down some Fredonia State film. Maybe, um, maybe we'll

2136
01:50:30,400 --> 01:50:32,679
Speaker 1: get Alex just before the show. We'll get a little

2137
01:50:32,720 --> 01:50:35,320
Speaker 1: cross over with Alex on here, but not not yet.

2138
01:50:35,479 --> 01:50:37,040
Speaker 1: So I just want to see what they're gonna argue

2139
01:50:37,080 --> 01:50:40,200
Speaker 1: about today. Can you guys wait ten minutes for you

2140
01:50:40,240 --> 01:50:43,320
Speaker 1: to get my popcorn? Everything everything? Rick and Louisville writes,

2141
01:50:43,360 --> 01:50:45,040
Speaker 1: and I'm curious to what you guys think about the

2142
01:50:45,120 --> 01:50:49,280
Speaker 1: Patriots taking a backseat among the national media. You don't

2143
01:50:49,320 --> 01:50:52,240
Speaker 1: hear any mention of us among the idiots with talk shows.

2144
01:50:52,479 --> 01:50:55,120
Speaker 1: I kind of like not being on people's radars. They're

2145
01:50:55,160 --> 01:50:57,639
Speaker 1: talking about other teams in that group of twenty two

2146
01:50:57,760 --> 01:51:00,479
Speaker 1: that Paul was referring to earlier. I did here Colin

2147
01:51:00,560 --> 01:51:04,160
Speaker 1: Coward the other day pick us in a shocking upset

2148
01:51:04,280 --> 01:51:06,960
Speaker 1: over the Packers. Then a typical Colin form in his

2149
01:51:07,080 --> 01:51:11,040
Speaker 1: next segment told told us why Belichick is taking us

2150
01:51:11,080 --> 01:51:14,240
Speaker 1: in the wrong direction. Also, Fred, my mother has been

2151
01:51:14,320 --> 01:51:17,080
Speaker 1: following your Game Day podcast and backs you up when

2152
01:51:17,840 --> 01:51:20,639
Speaker 1: the haters come on the attack. Okay, you got haters

2153
01:51:20,680 --> 01:51:25,479
Speaker 1: on that kid? Really they specifically come to hate? Oh wow?

2154
01:51:25,560 --> 01:51:31,240
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they come to me. Yes, some summer aimed

2155
01:51:31,240 --> 01:51:35,080
Speaker 1: at me, um, but mostly just you know, I won't

2156
01:51:35,120 --> 01:51:37,719
Speaker 1: stand for Oh yeah, no it, I love it, It's great.

2157
01:51:37,760 --> 01:51:39,880
Speaker 1: I don't. I won't stand for people can't make fun

2158
01:51:40,200 --> 01:51:43,280
Speaker 1: and some of it just a show. But like you know,

2159
01:51:43,439 --> 01:51:45,519
Speaker 1: the thousands of comments and come in. You used to

2160
01:51:45,520 --> 01:51:48,400
Speaker 1: see the things that don't get posted. Oh yeah, do

2161
01:51:48,439 --> 01:51:50,880
Speaker 1: you think we ever get a Bill Belichick reads mean tweets?

2162
01:51:51,240 --> 01:51:54,080
Speaker 1: That would be an all time segment of him reading

2163
01:51:54,160 --> 01:51:56,960
Speaker 1: like people. And then I have to be extra careful

2164
01:51:57,040 --> 01:51:59,800
Speaker 1: because it's not what they'll do is they'll do something

2165
01:51:59,840 --> 01:52:02,640
Speaker 1: in ocuus in their posts, but then their screen name

2166
01:52:02,720 --> 01:52:05,640
Speaker 1: will be Fred I after your mother or something like that.

2167
01:52:06,680 --> 01:52:08,920
Speaker 1: So I have to like, I have to like follow

2168
01:52:09,000 --> 01:52:10,840
Speaker 1: Fred I after your mother. It's funny. I have to

2169
01:52:10,920 --> 01:52:13,320
Speaker 1: be really careful because you know, like it's a good

2170
01:52:13,680 --> 01:52:16,439
Speaker 1: like I've done that, Like I've posted something and then

2171
01:52:16,600 --> 01:52:18,640
Speaker 1: oh my god, look at his screen name. You know,

2172
01:52:18,720 --> 01:52:21,120
Speaker 1: why did I do that? Delete? You know? But gotcha.

2173
01:52:21,280 --> 01:52:23,920
Speaker 1: You have to be really careful, Yeah, you do. Fred.

2174
01:52:24,400 --> 01:52:26,599
Speaker 1: Nobody in the national media talks about the Patriots because

2175
01:52:26,640 --> 01:52:30,040
Speaker 1: Bailey Zappy is boring except for his name. But we

2176
01:52:30,120 --> 01:52:32,720
Speaker 1: had a whole conversation I ask having Actually that's a

2177
01:52:33,680 --> 01:52:36,160
Speaker 1: that's a good bath question too, about about if his name.

2178
01:52:37,320 --> 01:52:39,760
Speaker 1: If his name was just Bailey Jo, it was Bailey Smith,

2179
01:52:39,840 --> 01:52:42,760
Speaker 1: no one would be having this conversation. I'm telling you.

2180
01:52:42,840 --> 01:52:45,160
Speaker 1: I think it's a big part of it. They love

2181
01:52:45,280 --> 01:52:47,960
Speaker 1: the name, the puns or z. I just think people

2182
01:52:48,040 --> 01:52:51,880
Speaker 1: love the unknown. They love the next shiny thing. You know,

2183
01:52:52,520 --> 01:52:55,160
Speaker 1: you see it all the time, just like that. Um.

2184
01:52:55,240 --> 01:52:57,839
Speaker 1: Someone in the Bayer on the topic of Horrier's concussion

2185
01:52:57,920 --> 01:53:00,800
Speaker 1: and concussions in general, I just remember this. Do you

2186
01:53:00,920 --> 01:53:04,880
Speaker 1: recall the defensive end Mike Wright, who suffered one bad

2187
01:53:04,960 --> 01:53:09,120
Speaker 1: concussion in oh nine or ten, or ten. He's subsequently

2188
01:53:09,200 --> 01:53:12,599
Speaker 1: retired after that. He couldn't be in a room with light. Yeah,

2189
01:53:12,800 --> 01:53:15,080
Speaker 1: he was in. He had and I'm not saying that

2190
01:53:15,160 --> 01:53:17,280
Speaker 1: that's where Hoyer is. And it's a great sign that

2191
01:53:17,360 --> 01:53:20,080
Speaker 1: he's already out because I think Evan's right. That's his

2192
01:53:20,320 --> 01:53:24,760
Speaker 1: value is to help the quarterbacks. Yeah, he was a

2193
01:53:24,800 --> 01:53:28,599
Speaker 1: good interior Russia. He was a good, good, good little player.

2194
01:53:28,600 --> 01:53:30,840
Speaker 1: I'm already taking a lot of shots, Pauli's you know,

2195
01:53:30,960 --> 01:53:34,200
Speaker 1: I'm sleeping over here. No, I I'm agree with you,

2196
01:53:34,439 --> 01:53:36,600
Speaker 1: I say, I know, but they need Brian Hoyer to

2197
01:53:36,760 --> 01:53:40,200
Speaker 1: be don't pick on the coaches. Oh, Joe, Judge, you're

2198
01:53:40,240 --> 01:53:44,400
Speaker 1: getting static from the coaches. No Oh, how's that? Charlie

2199
01:53:44,479 --> 01:53:46,479
Speaker 1: writes in I have a different take on why people

2200
01:53:46,520 --> 01:53:49,280
Speaker 1: are pro Zappy. I feel like it comes less from

2201
01:53:49,360 --> 01:53:52,600
Speaker 1: thinking Zappy is good and more from Pete feeling some

2202
01:53:52,920 --> 01:53:57,160
Speaker 1: trepidation about Max's potential. To my untrained eye, the offense

2203
01:53:57,240 --> 01:54:00,120
Speaker 1: with Zappy isn't that much different than it was with

2204
01:54:00,280 --> 01:54:03,799
Speaker 1: Mac last year. To me, assuming Zappy is a backup

2205
01:54:03,840 --> 01:54:07,880
Speaker 1: caliber ceiling, this inspires no confidence that Mac is the guy.

2206
01:54:08,400 --> 01:54:11,479
Speaker 1: I think we are seeing what a physically limited quarterback

2207
01:54:11,520 --> 01:54:14,560
Speaker 1: can do in a modern offensive league, and that is

2208
01:54:14,720 --> 01:54:17,599
Speaker 1: captain a running team to a nine and ten win

2209
01:54:17,720 --> 01:54:20,920
Speaker 1: season and losing the playoffs, not compete with top teams.

2210
01:54:21,320 --> 01:54:24,120
Speaker 1: That being said, the Baltimore game was pretty encouraging, just

2211
01:54:24,280 --> 01:54:28,720
Speaker 1: seeing some zip On throws from him interceptions aside. So

2212
01:54:29,200 --> 01:54:30,880
Speaker 1: I don't know what, like I said at the top

2213
01:54:30,920 --> 01:54:33,960
Speaker 1: watch last year's last year's Browns game, you know, I

2214
01:54:34,000 --> 01:54:36,320
Speaker 1: think that's that shows you the difference from what kind

2215
01:54:36,320 --> 01:54:39,320
Speaker 1: of players are. I agree with a lot of the email,

2216
01:54:39,360 --> 01:54:43,360
Speaker 1: except for I didn't hear any of this before he

2217
01:54:43,800 --> 01:54:46,360
Speaker 1: got hurt. Like if there were a lot of people

2218
01:54:46,400 --> 01:54:48,200
Speaker 1: calling and saying, I'm not sure this is the guy.

2219
01:54:48,240 --> 01:54:49,960
Speaker 1: I think they might have to find another guy. I

2220
01:54:50,040 --> 01:54:51,760
Speaker 1: don't think that. I think they might have to go

2221
01:54:51,880 --> 01:54:54,440
Speaker 1: in the draft. I didn't hear very many people saying that.

2222
01:54:54,800 --> 01:54:56,960
Speaker 1: Not telling you didn't hear any but I didn't hear

2223
01:54:57,040 --> 01:55:00,360
Speaker 1: very many people talking like that until Zappy played. Then

2224
01:55:00,480 --> 01:55:02,400
Speaker 1: Zappy played, and everybody's like, you know, I don't know

2225
01:55:02,520 --> 01:55:06,360
Speaker 1: if Max's the answer. Okay, I mean, I do agree

2226
01:55:06,440 --> 01:55:08,800
Speaker 1: that I think the offense that we saw Sunday was

2227
01:55:08,920 --> 01:55:10,960
Speaker 1: similar to the offense that they ran on a lot

2228
01:55:11,000 --> 01:55:13,320
Speaker 1: of games last year. I think Mac threw the ball

2229
01:55:13,560 --> 01:55:17,160
Speaker 1: far more than Zappy did. And I said that about

2230
01:55:17,160 --> 01:55:20,040
Speaker 1: the opening day, but I think the style of offense

2231
01:55:20,200 --> 01:55:23,160
Speaker 1: was lean heavily on the run. If they get the lead,

2232
01:55:23,240 --> 01:55:25,840
Speaker 1: you take your shots down the field. You know, when

2233
01:55:25,880 --> 01:55:28,120
Speaker 1: we're in a good position and racking up some great

2234
01:55:28,200 --> 01:55:30,360
Speaker 1: numbers in games that you win by one hundred points. Yeah,

2235
01:55:30,640 --> 01:55:33,480
Speaker 1: if the conversation is that maybe this is giving you

2236
01:55:33,600 --> 01:55:36,959
Speaker 1: some reluctance about Mac Jones, and that's a different conversation

2237
01:55:37,000 --> 01:55:39,400
Speaker 1: than saying Bailey Zappy is better than Mac Jones. Yeah,

2238
01:55:39,400 --> 01:55:41,800
Speaker 1: and that's what I thought. The guy articulated that well, right.

2239
01:55:41,840 --> 01:55:46,160
Speaker 1: But I think the problem is is that I felt

2240
01:55:46,160 --> 01:55:48,000
Speaker 1: like we were going to move forward this year and

2241
01:55:48,120 --> 01:55:51,080
Speaker 1: move away from what we saw last year, or even

2242
01:55:51,400 --> 01:55:53,080
Speaker 1: to a degree with Cam Newton as well. And I

2243
01:55:53,200 --> 01:55:56,440
Speaker 1: think that's where my frustration comes in, is because this

2244
01:55:56,640 --> 01:55:58,520
Speaker 1: just looks like more of the same. Like this just

2245
01:55:58,640 --> 01:56:01,720
Speaker 1: looks like an offense Dad is bringing a pea shooter

2246
01:56:01,880 --> 01:56:04,320
Speaker 1: to a machine gun fight when they go and play Buffalo,

2247
01:56:04,520 --> 01:56:07,080
Speaker 1: And it's like this is not gonna work, right, Like

2248
01:56:07,200 --> 01:56:09,640
Speaker 1: this type of offense is not going to beat the

2249
01:56:09,720 --> 01:56:12,600
Speaker 1: good teams in the AFC or in the NFC either

2250
01:56:12,760 --> 01:56:15,160
Speaker 1: like the whole NFL, but in the AFC in particular,

2251
01:56:15,400 --> 01:56:17,680
Speaker 1: even in your own division, Like you're not when two

2252
01:56:17,840 --> 01:56:19,280
Speaker 1: comes back, if he does come back, like, you're not

2253
01:56:19,320 --> 01:56:21,680
Speaker 1: gonna beat Miami like this. You're not gonna be Buffalo

2254
01:56:21,800 --> 01:56:23,600
Speaker 1: like this. You're not gonna be Kida's city, but like this,

2255
01:56:23,720 --> 01:56:25,040
Speaker 1: So we will not be able to beat the Jets

2256
01:56:25,120 --> 01:56:27,920
Speaker 1: like this. So where are we going? You know where? Where? Where?

2257
01:56:27,920 --> 01:56:30,320
Speaker 1: You know what happened to him? That's a play. Pretty

2258
01:56:30,360 --> 01:56:34,440
Speaker 1: good ball right now? Not really hope. Okay, all right, Um,

2259
01:56:34,640 --> 01:56:37,480
Speaker 1: let's bring in Alex right, bring him into yeah, because

2260
01:56:37,520 --> 01:56:39,120
Speaker 1: we have do we have his walk up song? Yeah,

2261
01:56:39,120 --> 01:56:41,640
Speaker 1: we'll have to share a mic with somebody, Paul will

2262
01:56:41,880 --> 01:56:45,240
Speaker 1: maybe Paul will step aside, smoke a cigarette. Um because

2263
01:56:45,480 --> 01:56:51,040
Speaker 1: you catch Catch twenty two debuted last week, and um,

2264
01:56:51,680 --> 01:56:57,880
Speaker 1: go ahead, Alexeye. And so we have episode number two

2265
01:56:58,000 --> 01:57:01,600
Speaker 1: coming up right after this show. So, Alex, what do

2266
01:57:01,680 --> 01:57:04,760
Speaker 1: you think about the show, about the team, Like, just

2267
01:57:05,000 --> 01:57:09,200
Speaker 1: about the show. I've been being back together with with

2268
01:57:09,400 --> 01:57:11,680
Speaker 1: your cohorts. It's awesome. I said this when we opened

2269
01:57:11,720 --> 01:57:14,520
Speaker 1: the show last week, and frankly, I can't repeat it enough,

2270
01:57:14,680 --> 01:57:18,200
Speaker 1: the support we got in the excitement people had when

2271
01:57:18,240 --> 01:57:20,560
Speaker 1: we announced the show is coming back, and even still

2272
01:57:20,600 --> 01:57:22,920
Speaker 1: I think people are sort of discovering it in the

2273
01:57:22,960 --> 01:57:25,920
Speaker 1: week since it's come out. Has just been unbelievable. To

2274
01:57:26,040 --> 01:57:29,280
Speaker 1: do something that uh, you know, fans of the team,

2275
01:57:29,360 --> 01:57:30,600
Speaker 1: and I grew up a fan of the team. I

2276
01:57:30,600 --> 01:57:33,080
Speaker 1: consider myself a fan of the team. To be working

2277
01:57:33,120 --> 01:57:35,800
Speaker 1: on something that fans find both entertaining and informative and

2278
01:57:35,880 --> 01:57:38,080
Speaker 1: they want it to be a part of their fanhood like,

2279
01:57:38,840 --> 01:57:40,520
Speaker 1: it means the world to me. I can't express how

2280
01:57:40,640 --> 01:57:43,120
Speaker 1: how awesome it's been, seeing the seeing the response. What's

2281
01:57:43,200 --> 01:57:45,600
Speaker 1: the biggest issue of the two of you disagree about.

2282
01:57:46,320 --> 01:57:52,360
Speaker 1: I mean, here's the thing. Football are non football because football,

2283
01:57:52,720 --> 01:57:58,440
Speaker 1: uh college football? Yeah, I think it's I love college football.

2284
01:57:58,480 --> 01:58:00,160
Speaker 1: I think it's a ton of fun. I also think

2285
01:58:00,200 --> 01:58:02,120
Speaker 1: for people who are draft nerds like me and Evan are,

2286
01:58:02,160 --> 01:58:03,960
Speaker 1: it's great to get ahead. You know, I don't know

2287
01:58:04,040 --> 01:58:07,680
Speaker 1: how many times I tell so. Actually it's a perfect

2288
01:58:07,680 --> 01:58:11,840
Speaker 1: example this time last year, Evan, you just gotta watch

2289
01:58:11,960 --> 01:58:14,880
Speaker 1: one Western Kentucky game. There's his kid, Bailey Zappy sling

2290
01:58:15,000 --> 01:58:17,760
Speaker 1: the ball all over the yard, he's putting. He looks

2291
01:58:17,760 --> 01:58:21,080
Speaker 1: like did this conversation happen or not? He looks like

2292
01:58:21,160 --> 01:58:23,560
Speaker 1: a Patriots quarterback. You've got to check this can out

2293
01:58:24,120 --> 01:58:27,880
Speaker 1: the year before Evan, just watch Alabama Mac Jones. Just

2294
01:58:28,000 --> 01:58:34,160
Speaker 1: watch what they happen. Those conversations happen. So I love

2295
01:58:34,200 --> 01:58:36,640
Speaker 1: college football. He has no interest in it until February,

2296
01:58:36,720 --> 01:58:39,520
Speaker 1: but it's so much. This weekend especially is gonna be great.

2297
01:58:39,560 --> 01:58:42,600
Speaker 1: You know, Alabama Tennessee. There's probably at least one future

2298
01:58:42,640 --> 01:58:45,760
Speaker 1: Patriot playing in that game. Um so that would probably

2299
01:58:45,760 --> 01:58:48,600
Speaker 1: be it. Okay, because he's patting himself on the back

2300
01:58:48,680 --> 01:58:51,080
Speaker 1: so much. I'm gonna just say this, the reason why

2301
01:58:51,160 --> 01:58:54,000
Speaker 1: I don't get into college football in the fall is

2302
01:58:54,000 --> 01:59:02,360
Speaker 1: because I have what's called a girlfriend and ball shot Saturday,

2303
01:59:02,960 --> 01:59:06,760
Speaker 1: I spend it with Jess. There you go. I'm going

2304
01:59:06,840 --> 01:59:09,360
Speaker 1: to truly enjoy my Saturday this week. And I thought

2305
01:59:09,360 --> 01:59:12,800
Speaker 1: you said we weren't doing we weren't doing persont okay.

2306
01:59:12,840 --> 01:59:17,120
Speaker 1: And then final question for Alex's podcast video or no video.

2307
01:59:18,520 --> 01:59:21,320
Speaker 1: I think the people want video. I'll defer to the people.

2308
01:59:21,320 --> 01:59:23,280
Speaker 1: I think the people like videos. Okay, we were very

2309
01:59:23,320 --> 01:59:26,120
Speaker 1: big on YouTube before this because of my old employer.

2310
01:59:26,480 --> 01:59:29,440
Speaker 1: So a lot of people on YouTube still looking for us.

2311
01:59:29,480 --> 01:59:32,080
Speaker 1: If we have they're finding us slowly, but yeah, well

2312
01:59:32,360 --> 01:59:35,280
Speaker 1: we're working on it all right. All right, So that'll

2313
01:59:35,280 --> 01:59:37,720
Speaker 1: be it for Patriots Unfiltered. Thanks for listening. We'll be
