00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:30,159
Speaker 1: I was.

8
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,240
Speaker 3: I was just looking to see if Stefan Diggs was

9
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:34,560
Speaker 3: a screen or slant. I mean I didn't.

10
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 4: Okay, the difference and energy do.

11
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,239
Speaker 3: They wouldn't have forty six touchdowns or whatever he threw?

12
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:43,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think they would.

13
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:47,239
Speaker 5: Be maybe fourteen and three for selfred. Okay, we had

14
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,600
Speaker 5: the most twenty plus yard touchdown pass. They were tied

15
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 5: in Stafford twenty plus air yards air yards.

16
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 3: I know I have to nerd it up hair yards.

17
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 1: My little fun research took me yesterday.

18
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 6: I just started watching third and medium, like third and

19
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 6: three to six?

20
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,400
Speaker 1: What did you do to him? Though? Okay, what do

21
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: we got many? Jerry? We have a show to do.

22
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 1: You're we need our guest at him? Which Stafford have

23
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 1: won as many games for the team as made it?

24
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,400
Speaker 1: I think you would have, yes, because he's an mvpain.

34
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,000

Speaker 1: the Patriots are going to beat the Chargers. So show's over.

36
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: We don't have nothing. I'm only kidding.

37
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 4: I spent this one was a it was a playoff game,

38
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 4: right like, so we went all out. We went all out.

39
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, how many?

40
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 4: There's like four thousand words, there's ten clips going in there.

41
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 4: This is come on, it was it was my first

42
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 4: time off writing it for the playoffs, so it had

43
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 4: to be big talk the playoffs.

44
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 1: All right, So we're gonna be talking about the Chargers

45
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: in this game coming up, uh, Sunday night, Sunday night game.

46
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: And Paul, I heard that your schooled the morning show

47
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 1: on your station.

48
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 3: I did not school anybody, just to let them know

49
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 3: that trying to give them a little of the insight

50
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 3: that we read about yesterday. We talked a little bit

51
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 3: about it on our show yesterday and they.

52
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 1: Were saying that, you know, the Sunday night game is

53
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 1: the premier show game and the Patriots are in it,

54
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: and Paul had to tell them, no, it's not the.

55
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 3: Marquee matchup, you know. And this was kind of news

56
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 3: to me too. I always felt the same way that

57
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 3: they were talking about it in the morning show with

58
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 3: Fred and and Hardy on the Sports Hub. But I

59
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:57,920
Speaker 3: guess there was a Chicago Sun Times column that sort

60
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 3: of detailed a lot of the league's thought process and

61
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 3: the number one matchup they deem is the four to

62
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 3: twenty five Sunday afternoon That is the most watched game

63
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,799
Speaker 3: of the weekend in the NFL's eyes, and they wanted

64
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 3: their best matchup to be in that slot, which was

65
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 3: San fran And at Philly. They felt the Packers Bears

66
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,640
Speaker 3: was their second best matchup. Normally they would put that

67
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,800
Speaker 3: on the Sunday night. They decided to put it in

68
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 3: Saturday night because they're trying to boost the popularity of

69
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 3: the Amazon game, which is the streamed game Saturday night,

70
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 3: eight o'clock, looking maybe for a younger audience, you know,

71
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 3: get the streaming involved, get the streaming numbers that you gotta.

72
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: Plus it up.

73
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, plus it up. So that's what the reasoning was

74
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 3: for putting that game. They feel like if they had

75
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 3: put like say, Jaguars Bills in that slot, maybe some

76
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 3: people would have said I don't have to see that one.

77
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 3: But people feel like there's enough of a draw with

78
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 3: Green Bay Chicago that people will. So I'll be like

79
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 3: me and say it's streaming, that's not for me. I'll

80
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 3: do something else Saturday night.

81
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 4: Sorry, I mean to interrupt you. I had heard that

82
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:19,839
Speaker 4: the networks were all fighting over Bear's Packers and the

83
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 4: fact that they gave it to Amazon. There was a

84
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 4: little bit of tension among the suits.

85
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 3: I got that impression from reading the story that I

86
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 3: read today.

87
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 4: That they gave Amazon a cookie and said here's Bear's

88
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 4: Packers instead of like, you know, Panthers Rams or like

89
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 4: some crappy game. Relatively speaking, of course.

90
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I thought the Patriots would be in that

91
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 3: four twenty five Sunday slot. Obviously they just flip flopped

92
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 3: it and you get a marquee spot. And Matt Smith

93
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:56,359
Speaker 3: No Socks, the famous No Socks opined that because the

94
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,840
Speaker 3: Super Bowl is on NBC this year, maybe this is

95
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 3: an effort to throw some crumbs to some of the

96
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 3: other networks, knowing that the you know, the NBC is

97
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 3: going to have, you know, the marquee of all matchups

98
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,040
Speaker 3: in the Super Bowl, regardless of who that is. So

99
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 3: maybe this is an effort to please all of the partners.

100
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: So there's that. The other thing I want to bring

101
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: up is, uh, you know this talk and it's more

102
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: than just a few people, how are you going to

103
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 1: feel if the Patriots lose? And you know, is it

104
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 1: a disappointment, is it a success? Is it a failure?

105
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah. It's like, why what is this obsession

106
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,720
Speaker 1: of preparing us and figuring out how we're going to

107
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,479
Speaker 1: feel if they lose? Yeah, Like, I.

108
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,840
Speaker 4: Don't's what you do? You set yourself up for failure?

109
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: Right, It's like, let's worry about that. Then the other

110
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: thing I and we were just talking No Socks Paul

111
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,480
Speaker 1: myself before the AFC is wide open. We all agree

112
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,719
Speaker 1: that with that, except for maybe Pittsburgh. It's a pretty

113
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 1: evil and field. There's going to be a loser in

114
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 1: every one of these games, you know, and it's going

115
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 1: to come down to you know, bad call or turnover, jeez,

116
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: or whatever's going to come down. I you know, most

117
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,799
Speaker 1: of these games are probably going to be not be closed.

118
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 1: I think I think they're all yeah, are pretty squad.

119
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 1: They all have their strengths, they all have their weaknesses.

120
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: One team is going to lose every one of these games.

121
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 1: So should that fan base all be you know, up

122
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,480
Speaker 1: in arms like they think the Patriots fan base should

123
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 1: be because they missed this opportunity. It's an opportunity for

124
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: every one of these teams in the playoffs. I just

125
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,359
Speaker 1: let's not folks, Let's not worry about that. Let's be

126
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 1: overjoyed with the fact that we're fourteen and three, We're

127
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 1: in the playoffs. We're ahead of schedule. I don't care

128
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,559
Speaker 1: what anyone says. We're a head of schedule. And let's

129
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: let's take every game one game at a time and

130
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 1: not worry about Monday. Let's worry about Sunday night, and

131
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 1: if God forbid we lose, let's get ready for twenty

132
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 1: twenty six, you know, like, oh God, I am.

133
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 4: One hundred percent in the school of I hate losing

134
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 4: more than I like winning, everybody, and so I just

135
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 4: absolutely dread losing, like I dread everything about it. Like

136
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 4: I think that that is that just stinks all around.

137
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: It does so terrible.

138
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 4: So, like, I just think that for most of us,

139
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 4: you just live in a fear of what if they lose? Right,

140
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 4: And like you just you just prepare yourself for that outcome,

141
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 4: because that's the worst possible feeling.

142
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 1: Follow If you were a service for a soldier and

143
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 1: you're going into battle, or if we are, you know,

144
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 1: the person leading those men and women into battle, would

145
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: you go in with the mentality what if we lose?

146
00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 4: I mean no, no, you go in like we're gonna

147
00:07:59,520 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 4: take the.

148
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 6: I don't think Vrabel's doing that, you know. But what

149
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 6: does it look like though?

150
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 7: You know?

151
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 6: That's like you know, I mean, yeah, I think I

152
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 6: hammered and like fifty six to nothing, Yeah, that would

153
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 6: you know?

154
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 1: But what if they go back and forth.

155
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 6: With his team and it's a last possession and the

156
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 6: other team just makes an outstanding play, you know. So

157
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 6: I'm not going to get too worked up about the scenario.

158
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 6: The fact is they're here. This is a playoff week here.

159
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 6: The energy is awesome and it's just exciting to see

160
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 6: them take a next step and win or lose. You're

161
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 6: gonna stick with this team, and you want to see

162
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 6: Drake may get some playoff experience, so you know whether

163
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 6: or not he comes up a little short or not

164
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 6: this weekend, like there's going to be positives.

165
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 8: Now.

166
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 1: I'm with Mike.

167
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 3: I think that that's a big part of it. I

168
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 3: can't really envision this scenario where I'm like not going

169
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,199
Speaker 3: to be disappointed if they lose. But that doesn't mean that,

170
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:52,559
Speaker 3: you know, just ignore the fact that they're way ahead

171
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 3: of schedule and the future is bright and all that stuff.

172
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 3: I mean that that's what I think this this comes

173
00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 3: down to. Like for specifically, for like Evan and I,

174
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 3: there's such a gap in our ages and Fred. You

175
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 3: know that I spent a lot of my time not

176
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,319
Speaker 3: only rooting for the Boston teams, but rooting for Northeastern,

177
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 3: which means I have a lot of losing and a

178
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 3: lot of callous you know, you know, day after games.

179
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 3: You know, mentality point, I don't necessarily dread losing more

180
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 3: than I enjoy winning. I think they're kind of the opposite.

181
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 1: This is all the results.

182
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 3: But I don't ever go into a game and say,

183
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 3: oh my god, what if they lose. I never do that.

184
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: But this is all the results of the dynasty.

185
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 3: And I'll tell you why, because you've done nothing but win.

186
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 1: You know, Paul, tell me if I'm right or wrong.

187
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:41,440
Speaker 1: Here one in ninety six, when the Patriots went on

188
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 1: their run and got to the Super Bowl, I don't

189
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 1: remember the same dread of losing because we had never

190
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: won before. We had never won it all.

191
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 3: That's my point. It's just the difference. Like I you know,

192
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,080
Speaker 3: Evan just said, I do that all the time. I

193
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 3: go because you've done nothing but win, I think, And

194
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 3: it's not as situations younger and he's grown up with

195
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 3: six titles.

196
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 1: But would you agree with me?

197
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 3: Oh, I would agree with this. I would agree one

198
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 3: thousand percent with you. I was as distant titles, I

199
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 3: think in ninety six. I was as disappointed, of course,

200
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 3: coming home from that game and we got stuck having.

201
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 1: To shade you're winning at halftime.

202
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, well they weren't winning at half time. I was

203
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 3: fourteen ten after the first quarter. Oh, I went downhill

204
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 3: after that.

205
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 4: Okay, why did they kick the ball to Desmond Howard?

206
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: Yeah?

207
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 2: All right.

208
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:28,679
Speaker 1: You know, I asked.

209
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 3: Belichick, ya, when when they do when I was driving

210
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 3: home ninety six. Yeah, they kicked it to Desmond Howard.

211
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:36,839
Speaker 3: He's right, heavans right.

212
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: No, No, no, weren't they ahead at halftime in ninety six, No,

213
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:40,319
Speaker 1: they weren't.

214
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 3: The first quarter was fourteen ten. They were down twenty

215
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,679
Speaker 3: seven and fourteen at the end of the half. Then

216
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 3: it was twenty seven to twenty one with about a

217
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,080
Speaker 3: minute left in the third quarter, and.

218
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 4: They kicked the Demond They kicked it.

219
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 1: Time keep going. I'm sorry.

220
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 3: Anything else you want to know.

221
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,079
Speaker 1: About that game? Yeah, no, I lift it anyway.

222
00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 3: I did so really, I was really disappointed coming home,

223
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,319
Speaker 3: you know, just bummed out that they lost.

224
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,559
Speaker 1: But I didn't.

225
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 3: It didn't like send me into like this deep dark depression.

226
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,400
Speaker 3: I've never really been that kind of a sports fan,

227
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 3: Like I'm pretty imbalanced, you know, I have my arguments

228
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,439
Speaker 3: and my quirks, but I don't think I'm that kind

229
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:23,560
Speaker 3: of sports fan that it's like really like just ruins

230
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 3: my life that my team that I root for lost

231
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:29,080
Speaker 3: and I'm going to sink into a deep depression for

232
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 3: a month.

233
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:32,440
Speaker 6: I was going to say, oh seven, I had a

234
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 6: party and final whistle. I just took the balloon, I

235
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 6: popped it and I went to my room.

236
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:45,079
Speaker 1: The party the time hung was like a death. It's

237
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 1: just a loss as you can ever have.

238
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:50,720
Speaker 3: And again, I'm not going to tell you how I'm above.

239
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 3: Like in ninety six, go back to that season.

240
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 1: You know.

241
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,439
Speaker 3: There was a game that they lost the Shannon Sharp

242
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 3: called the National Guard we kill in the Patriots game.

243
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 1: I remember that.

244
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was supposed to go out that night, and

245
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 3: I was so bummed out that I was like an

246
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 3: hour late meeting everybody. Like I was just so like

247
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 3: just distraught with how badly they played.

248
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:12,199
Speaker 1: But like I went out.

249
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 3: I did what I was you know, I just was

250
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 3: not really in a good mood when I went out.

251
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 3: But that was like the day of the game. Like

252
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 3: two days later. It's like, who even remembers You're onto

253
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,320
Speaker 3: the next game. Yeah, these some people, it just it

254
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 3: ruins their whole life.

255
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 4: I just think this is a different situation, like the

256
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 4: context different than what I just I don't. I guess

257
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 4: it just is more like I think it needs like

258
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,839
Speaker 4: added context, Like I think the reason why a lot

259
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 4: of people are dreading losing this game is because they've

260
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 4: heard all year long that this team is fraudulent because

261
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 4: of the schedule that they played. So what so so

262
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 4: if they lose this game, it proves the point that

263
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 4: they were fraudulent, Like.

264
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,840
Speaker 1: But you know that they're not. It doesn't prove anything.

265
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 1: I agree.

266
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 4: I just got through.

267
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,359
Speaker 1: I just got through telling you all these teams are even.

268
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 4: Okay, you're making sense, Like if you if they lose

269
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 4: on Sunday to the Chargers, then everybody that has been

270
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 4: chirping the Patriots all year about their soft schedule is

271
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 4: going to be even louder. And I don't think that.

272
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 3: I think it's listen to it.

273
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 4: Okay, No, that's not the world.

274
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 1: Eventually, Patriots fans are saying that Denver is a fraud.

275
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 1: Right if we beat Denver, does that prove that they

276
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 1: were a fraud? Yes, no, it doesn't do Is it

277
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 1: not a fraud?

278
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 4: It doesn't prove that they're a fraud. But you best

279
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 4: believe we're going to be victory.

280
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 1: Of course we are. So you're a fan, you shouldn't

281
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 1: think that your team was a fraud.

282
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 4: But also, if we played Denver, it's gonna be in

283
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 4: the AFC Championship game. Like being one and done is different.

284
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 3: I blame this, Yeah, yeah, that's what it was.

285
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: Maybe it maybe.

286
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 4: To make it an age thing. It's a it's a

287
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 4: social media world things, and you know, I I That's

288
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,440
Speaker 4: what I think it is, like in a vacuum about

289
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 4: this season, is that all year long, I know what

290
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 4: you saw, schedules have been thrown in our faces. That

291
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 4: this team has played the easiest schedule of all time

292
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 4: and the easiest schedule in the league. And you know,

293
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 4: if they go one and done and they lose to

294
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,720
Speaker 4: a Chargers team, which on paper they should probably be,

295
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 4: then all those people are going to have credence that

296
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 4: they were right the whole time.

297
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 1: Do you want me to tell you?

298
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 3: Do you want me to tell you what those haters

299
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 3: are going to do?

300
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 1: If the Patriots win the Super Bowl?

301
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 4: That's what happens.

302
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 3: Do you want me to tell you what I'm going

303
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 3: to I'll tell you right because I I this like

304
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 3: kind of like the antagonistic, the troll mentalities. If they

305
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 3: win the Super Bowl, you know what they're going to do.

306
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 3: They're going to say you wouldn't even have made the playoffs.

307
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 3: If you had a real schedule. Yeah, you took advantage

308
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 3: of a week schedule and all the big I'm just

309
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 3: telling you what they're going to Okay, but if you

310
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 3: want to argue this crap, that's what they're going to

311
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 3: do because they never relent and say they were wrong.

312
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 1: No one ever does that.

313
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 4: People do that, like to me all the time about

314
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 4: the twenty four Celtics, I do not care. Champions, and

315
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 4: you can tell me that they had an easy path

316
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 4: and I do not care. So if the Patriots win

317
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 4: the Super Bowl and people say, well it's because you

318
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 4: had an easy path, it's not going to bother me

319
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 4: when iota. But it will bother me if people say

320
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 4: they lose to the Charters on Sunday and they say, see,

321
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 4: we're frauds.

322
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: Would if the Celtics hadn't gone all the way that year, yes,

323
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 1: it would have bothered you. Yeah that was But would

324
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 1: you have thought that they're right? It doesn't matter, No, no,

325
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. Would you would you would believe that

326
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 1: those Celtics detractors were right.

327
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 4: It's different because the Celtics were so much further along.

328
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 1: But like, but you you wouldn't knowing in your brain,

329
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 1: not your heart, your brain that they're wrong.

330
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 4: It was just chirping, okay, but this is the this

331
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 4: is the world we live in. I don't know what

332
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 4: to tell you, Like whether it's his shows or whether

333
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 4: it's social media, like, it doesn't matter.

334
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:49,880
Speaker 1: I understand these are the people that.

335
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 4: Are going to be making I'm not taking it that personally.

336
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 4: I'm just saying it's annoying, like and like that. That

337
00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:00,080
Speaker 4: that's it, like Monday. If they lose on Sunday, I

338
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 4: will not turn on his station for like a week.

339
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 3: Like this is where I agree with him. That's how

340
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 3: I would handle it.

341
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,440
Speaker 1: Oh, just don't listen. I just like I can.

342
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 3: Easily not read what's going on on Twitter, right, it

343
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 3: doesn't bother me. A lot of people Evan's age and

344
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 3: younger than Evan, they can't do that. They're just programs

345
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 3: that they have to figure out and they have to

346
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 3: fight with somebody and they have to defend the wall.

347
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 3: And I don't spend any of my time worrying.

348
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,640
Speaker 1: About I'm going to be as disappointed as anyone, but

349
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 1: I will be too. But God forbid you lose. The

350
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 1: future is bright. I'm excited. We've got May.

351
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 3: We will get with that may just won't be Monday. So, Mike,

352
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 3: do you remember how I told you to the stages

353
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 3: of grief. Mike, you want to go over like what's

354
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 3: gonna happen? So let's say let's say like it just

355
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 3: it happens. No one wants to acknowledge it, but it happens.

356
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 3: They lose Sunday night on two on the postgame show,

357
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 3: there's going to be a lot of anger, right, We're

358
00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 3: going to get anger by Tuesday. It's going to be

359
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 3: anger with with a sort of a sniff of.

360
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 1: Barkain.

361
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,160
Speaker 3: Even know we're so far ahead of schedule by Thursday

362
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:11,960
Speaker 3: because we won't do a Wednesday show if we lose,

363
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,159
Speaker 3: it'll be Tuesday and Thursday. By Thursday, it'll be really

364
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 3: all about Man, look at this, We got this m

365
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 3: VP candidate. We're going to be here every year for

366
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 3: ten years, and maybe the second week it's going to be.

367
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:29,439
Speaker 1: Mike, we got a great year behind us, and we're.

368
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's how it will be hundred percent agree to

369
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 3: shut this crap off, and you can sort of a

370
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 3: hundred percent agree the bills are.

371
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 1: One and done. The Fred Kurshers of the world will

372
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 1: be calling up Buffalo over at see I told you

373
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 1: the windows closed, And if you do, you think you

374
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 1: think Buffalo fans should feel that way.

375
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 4: There's going to be one team that Josh Allen maid

376
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 4: be very worried if they lose on Sunday.

377
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 3: But if you're the mafia, well, if I were a

378
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:58,480
Speaker 3: member of Bill's mafia, I would just always be very

379
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 3: worried because of the sure that.

380
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 4: The Bill's like not the cross sports again, but like

381
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,120
Speaker 4: the Bills are in the position that twenty four Celtics

382
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 4: were in. They had their guy in the prime of

383
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 4: his career with an easy path. Like if they lose

384
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:14,520
Speaker 4: on Sunday, and.

385
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 3: The difference is they they're not hosting everybody without all

386
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,439
Speaker 3: the best players, Okay, but if there's a big difference there,

387
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 3: they're on the road.

388
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 4: And but if they're one and done, not an easy path,

389
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 4: this is their time to help Paul, Like this is I.

390
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 3: Understand, I understand what you're saying, Like Mahomes isn't there's

391
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:30,120
Speaker 3: not there and Jackson's not there.

392
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 1: But they're not that good. They're lucky to be.

393
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,120
Speaker 4: If they lose on Sunday to Jacksonville, then they're gonna

394
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 4: the coach is gonna get fired like the there's.

395
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 3: So the only way that coach gets fired is if

396
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 3: they hire John Hobball, which is in play. We haven't

397
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 3: talked about that yet either.

398
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 4: But he's not.

399
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,360
Speaker 1: He's not the Bills mafia.

400
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,919
Speaker 3: I wouldn't want any part of listening to these national

401
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:54,240
Speaker 3: shows say exactly what Evan just said, because Evan's right.

402
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,120
Speaker 3: Sean McDermott's job is going to be on the line

403
00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 3: if they lose to Jacksonville. He's I think he's a

404
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 3: thousand percent right. That's all the national talk. The biggest

405
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,600
Speaker 3: story coming out of this wildcard weekend in my view,

406
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 3: looking change, no, but looking ahead and coming out of

407
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,880
Speaker 3: wild right now, it's it's the coaching change is absolutely

408
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 3: right coming out of the weekend. I like to predict

409
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 3: what the storylines will be if the Bills lose. That's

410
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 3: the biggest storyline that's going to come out of this weekend.

411
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,480
Speaker 3: Evan's got it nailed. And it's because of They've been

412
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 3: knocking on the door, knocking on the door, knocking on

413
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,880
Speaker 3: the door, and the only thing that's preventing them from

414
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 3: getting there generally has been Mahomes into a lesser extent

415
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 3: Burrow and neither of those two guys are around.

416
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 1: And Harbor was available and they still.

417
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:40,879
Speaker 3: Can't get out of it.

418
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 1: And now Harbaugh is available.

419
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,680
Speaker 3: That's going to be the big storyline. And by the way,

420
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,679
Speaker 3: did you guys see Schefter's report today, So this is

421
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 3: currently seven job openings now with Baltimore making that announcement yesterday,

422
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 3: Schefter said that according to Harrorball's agent, which you know

423
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 3: it's coming from the agent. Take it for what you will,

424
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:05,360
Speaker 3: he has already had it at least seven teams contact him.

425
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I heard, I did hear so, and some of

426
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:08,359
Speaker 1: them are teams.

427
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 3: That's at least one who already has a coach, right,

428
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,160
Speaker 3: it sounds like it's my It's probably more than one. Yeah,

429
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,640
Speaker 3: I think Miami is a possibility, could be Buffalo.

430
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 4: I don't think it's Buffalo yet, but it sounds like

431
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 4: the Dolphins and their ownership has had an infatuation with

432
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 4: John Harbaugh.

433
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 3: So to your point, though, and if you were the pagulist,

434
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,679
Speaker 3: would you call contact John Harbaugh and say, hey, listen,

435
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:36,440
Speaker 3: just don't make a rash decision. You know, right, you're

436
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,119
Speaker 3: gonna have You're gonna have the pick of the litter.

437
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:41,920
Speaker 3: Obviously you're going to be in high demand. But wait, wait,

438
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 3: wait at least till Sunday. Yeah, you know, and you know,

439
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,399
Speaker 3: and then you know, if the Bills win, you know,

440
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 3: maybe they call back and say, you know what, we're

441
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,360
Speaker 3: gonna We're gonna stay the course. But I think Evan's right.

442
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 3: I think there's a chance that make Durmy gets fired.

443
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 4: I don't know how he doesn't like how many more

444
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:58,359
Speaker 4: times are we going to do this? But you have

445
00:20:58,400 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 4: the best player in the league, and you can't win

446
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 4: playoff games like I.

447
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:02,400
Speaker 3: Just seven and six.

448
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,639
Speaker 6: I understand why harvaugh is out, but it's still just

449
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:07,959
Speaker 6: it's the same thing as Rable to me of you

450
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 6: have a good coach that you know, maybe wins Coach

451
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:12,360
Speaker 6: of the Year, and you get to a certain point

452
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 6: where you feel like you just can't move forward.

453
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:16,919
Speaker 1: It's just run its course. But oh Al Davis used

454
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 1: to have the role ten years Yeah, after ten years long,

455
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,920
Speaker 1: they lose their ability to get the message out they started.

456
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 3: There's also and I read some stuff from Jeff Zerbiek,

457
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:32,919
Speaker 3: who is a longtime Ravens writer. I didn't read, you know,

458
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 3: just reading clips online that I saw. I didn't read

459
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 3: thoroughly the stories, but indicating that the real problem is

460
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:47,960
Speaker 3: Lamar with Todd munkin the offensive coordinator in Harbaugh wasn't

461
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 3: going to get rid of them, so Baltimore decided, you know,

462
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 3: we're going to go in another direction. Now we've also

463
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:58,440
Speaker 3: heard we heard, like what five or six weeks ago,

464
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 3: there was what Fred talking about the Al Davis thing

465
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,440
Speaker 3: where they've really kind of tuned him out.

466
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 1: In the locker room was eighteen years.

467
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:08,040
Speaker 3: It had run its course. I think John Harbaugh is

468
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:09,679
Speaker 3: a really good coach. I don't think he's done a

469
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:13,679
Speaker 3: really good job with some really good teams recently the

470
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 3: last couple of years. I think that they have underachieved.

471
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 3: This year they badly underachieved. Well, it might be time.

472
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,600
Speaker 4: But Lamar got hurt, and I think that's it, and

473
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 4: it's totally for situation, but I kind of look at it, but.

474
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,440
Speaker 3: I think there were one in four before he got hurt. Yeah,

475
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 3: something like that.

476
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 4: But you look at the situation too, like what happened

477
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 4: in Washington, Like they bought both their coordinators because Jen

478
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,359
Speaker 4: Daniels got hurt. Like is Cliff Kingsbury out of a job?

479
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:42,159
Speaker 3: If I wonder if Kingsbury is in play for Baltimore, I.

480
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,719
Speaker 4: Would think that that's probably what's happening is Kingsbury probably

481
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 4: has another job that he thinks he's going to get.

482
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 3: That's kind of what I was thinking.

483
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 4: But like I think with the with the Ravens situation,

484
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:52,680
Speaker 4: it just kind of seems to me like la Mar

485
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 4: might be the problem.

486
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:55,959
Speaker 1: Right well, and that's that's my question.

487
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 3: Yes, say a lot of.

488
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 4: Kyler Murray, like like Greg Roman is not good enough

489
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:01,399
Speaker 4: and then they and then they fired Greg Roman and

490
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 4: now Todd Monkin's not good enough, and so that he

491
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 4: wants Todd Monkin fired, and like it just seems to

492
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 4: me like it's been difficult to work with.

493
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:12,720
Speaker 1: It's it's a it's a wild I don't remember so

494
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 1: many high profile coaches being available, you know, ex coaches

495
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 1: being available in any one cycle. Yeah.

496
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:21,679
Speaker 6: Well, I mean, if you're Baltimore, do you hit your

497
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,600
Speaker 6: wagon to Lamar and you bring in a coach that's

498
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 6: gonna serve Lamar. I mean that's probably what Kingsbury would

499
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 6: be to some element.

500
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,480
Speaker 3: Or a high profile coaches besides Harbor.

501
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 4: Mike McCarthy, Bill Belichick's not available, has been available for

502
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,119
Speaker 4: three years, but he's available.

503
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 1: This is the third years ago, but he's available.

504
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,440
Speaker 3: You just said, I can't remember these kinds of guys

505
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 3: being available.

506
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 1: I can't.

507
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:44,399
Speaker 3: We was available last year, in the year before.

508
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 1: No, but you add in Harbaugh, you add in I

509
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 1: think it's really just Harbor and Mike McCarthy. Mike McCarthy.

510
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 1: I mean, if listen, if it's really disrespectful, know what

511
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: I mean.

512
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 4: I think Mike McCarthy won a Super Bowl and has

513
00:23:58,040 --> 00:23:59,359
Speaker 4: about the same win percentages.

514
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 1: I mean, you know that table. I don't know if dable,

515
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:04,400
Speaker 1: but I don't think of him any We'll probably get

516
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 1: another opportunity some day.

517
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 4: I think he'll be a coordinator first.

518
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:10,439
Speaker 1: But maybe. But but you know, he's out there, like

519
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,880
Speaker 1: I know, I don't know. As Pete Carroll said, he's

520
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:13,919
Speaker 1: actually retiring.

521
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 3: He should, he should, but again, he was available last

522
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:18,440
Speaker 3: year and he got a job.

523
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 1: Yeah.

524
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 3: I'm just saying, I don't think this is a great

525
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 3: year for coaching availability. I don't think there's a lot

526
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 3: of Like I don't think there's a Ben Johnson available.

527
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 4: It was available, Yeah, yeah, I mean Stefanski he's another one.

528
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 3: Harbaugh another what he's like thirty games below five hundred.

529
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 4: Like I think that Tomlin is not tom right now, I'm.

530
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 3: With if Tomlin is available, then that I would change

531
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:48,880
Speaker 3: my mind.

532
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:49,880
Speaker 1: That's a high profile.

533
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 4: I'm with, coach is kind of low key staking.

534
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: There are a lot of mid coaches that are that

535
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 1: are out of a job.

536
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 6: And that's what's so funny to me, though, is we

537
00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 6: spent the first five minutes talking about it might be

538
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:01,680
Speaker 6: just at the Patriots was and now we're talking about

539
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,639
Speaker 6: two other teams that if they lose, their coaches might

540
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 6: get fired.

541
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 1: Right, That's how stream it is.

542
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 3: Disappointed, But I think it's I think this is back

543
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 3: to Evans's point about like the twenty four Celtics, like

544
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 3: you're in a different spot, and so you know, when

545
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,119
Speaker 3: you're there for nineteen years, in eighteen years in the

546
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,919
Speaker 3: case of Tom Win in Harbar, respectively, you're not judged

547
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 3: in the same lens, and you shouldn't be.

548
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 4: It's also just different, Like I think that for especially

549
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 4: the current fan base. You know, obviously Drake may is

550
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,399
Speaker 4: a much better player than Matt Jones. But we just

551
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 4: did this in twenty twenty one where they had a

552
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 4: good regular season. Now they had a better regular season

553
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 4: this year and the quarterback is better. But if they

554
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 4: go out on Sunday and they lay an egg against

555
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:47,400
Speaker 4: the Chargers, like what, we're right back there, right or we're.

556
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 3: Not ready, So my not ready, my feeling will be different,

557
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 3: you know, vastly different. I was very consistent just because

558
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 3: I didn't think that they will go into the playoffs

559
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 3: in twenty two. I thought twenty one was a fluke.

560
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,439
Speaker 3: I don't think this is a fluke. Now that's just

561
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,399
Speaker 3: me mentally, doesn't mean I'm right. It might end up

562
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 3: being a fluke.

563
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:05,360
Speaker 1: Who knows.

564
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,840
Speaker 4: I don't think it's a fluke, but I think I

565
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,959
Speaker 4: think that there's there's all those elements right of like

566
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:14,160
Speaker 4: the proof of concept of winning a playoff game, of like,

567
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 4: you know, really accomplishing something this year of you know,

568
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,200
Speaker 4: not just winning the division but also winning a playoff

569
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 4: game really puts your stamp on it. Like this is

570
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 4: it's not a no fluke.

571
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,720
Speaker 1: It's not a fluke for Denver, it's not a fluke

572
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:30,880
Speaker 1: for Jackson with the first year coach.

573
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,720
Speaker 3: It's not fourteen wins might be none of these still

574
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 3: in a playoff team last year.

575
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 1: None of these teams are that in it with the

576
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 1: exception of Pittsburgh. Perhaps are here because of a fluke Carolina,

577
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 1: but no, I get your point.

578
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 4: Yeah literally had a field goal mess yeah FLI key, Yeah.

579
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 3: But I agree with Fred. I think the six teams

580
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 3: are pretty even, and I can make an argument it's

581
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,199
Speaker 3: going to be interesting to see how it goes, you know,

582
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 3: when it goes forward, because I do think strongly that Baltimore,

583
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:08,119
Speaker 3: Kansas City, maybe if they can figure out how to

584
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 3: handle one off season for a change, Cincinnati, these teams

585
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 3: are going to be heard from, and you know, I

586
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 3: think there are good teams that have I might even

587
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:17,640
Speaker 3: slide Indianapolis into this.

588
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:19,480
Speaker 1: Conversation absolutely if they get a quarterback.

589
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 3: There are some good teams that are in the playoffs

590
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:24,440
Speaker 3: right now that.

591
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 1: Might not be back. I mean Jason Ohio historically that's

592
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:33,119
Speaker 1: the next year Jason for OHIOSA is Fred, why are

593
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:37,159
Speaker 1: you trying to rationalize fandom, which is inherently irrational. Fans

594
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 1: think and do wild stuff for their teams. I agree,

595
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 1: but I would hope our fandom appreciates what we've got

596
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 1: and what the future could be. With what we've got.

597
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,639
Speaker 4: We will get there, Yes, won't be Monday.

598
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: That's what I said, this isn't the end of the road.

599
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 1: It's like, if we don't win now, we never will,

600
00:27:57,880 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 1: you know, Like.

601
00:27:58,480 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 4: No, I'm saying that, you know.

602
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's going to take a while.

603
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:03,399
Speaker 1: But it's gonna take him in.

604
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,280
Speaker 4: Like then we'll get to NFL Honors and hopefully Drake

605
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 4: may is the m v P. And then that make

606
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 4: you feel a little bit better, And.

607
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 3: That makes Mike upset, and I kind of agree with him.

608
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 3: Mike is dreading if the worst case scenario happens and

609
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 3: they lose this game.

610
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,720
Speaker 6: Three weeks of MVY three weeks, so if Stafford lost

611
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 6: this weekend in the division round.

612
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 1: So you know, obviously I probably put straight back in

613
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:22,400
Speaker 1: front of.

614
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:27,159
Speaker 4: You like they started. They voted for MVP on Monday.

615
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:28,120
Speaker 1: But we're gonna keep talking.

616
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:29,200
Speaker 4: It's going to keep.

617
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 1: Getting calls by we made our beach.

618
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 4: It's over. Yeah, good job campaigning, everybody. It's done. I

619
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 4: know they can't vote anymore.

620
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 6: I know we've talked about this stuff in the past,

621
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 6: and I remember you talking about no one was throwing

622
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 6: in ninety six, the fact that Denver lost in the

623
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 6: face of people and even watching doing my eighty five

624
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:47,719
Speaker 6: stuff of like the excitement of like they thought they

625
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 6: were going to beat the Bears, and.

626
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 1: You know, I just think it's it's two things.

627
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 2: To me.

628
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:53,000
Speaker 6: It's the rise of social media now where you have

629
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 6: direct contact with another team's fans.

630
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 1: You didn't used to have that, Like, how would you

631
00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:58,680
Speaker 1: get into it? You didn't care.

632
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 6: The only thing that mattered was, you know, when the

633
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 6: Boston Globe, the Boston Harrold wrote a story and then

634
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,960
Speaker 6: you know that might ruffle some feathers, right, but it's

635
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:07,360
Speaker 6: that and then it's part of the interruption.

636
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 1: This is how sports are covered now.

637
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 6: Every angle, you know, win, lose, what's the good, what's

638
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 6: the bad?

639
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:13,840
Speaker 1: Like that's really I'm not that as.

640
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 3: Positive like the ninety six one, and I might be

641
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 3: getting my years off by a year, I want to say.

642
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 3: You know, so you're right. I knew that Denver was

643
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 3: better than the Patriots in ninety six, but I was

644
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 3: just excited that they lost. And I was really I

645
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 3: remember strongly rooting for Jacksonville watching that game. It's like,

646
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:34,720
Speaker 3: oh my god, they have a chance that one win

647
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 3: and they were really you know, so you got a

648
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 3: chance to play Jacksonville for the AFC Championship. Game ninety seven.

649
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 3: I think that they lost to Denver in Denver ninety

650
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 3: seven and ninety eight, and they were reasonably competitive games,

651
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 3: so you could kind of see they're not that far away.

652
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 3: But you looked at it and you're like, that really

653
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 3: was a great opportunity that they had in ninety six

654
00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 3: to go to the Super Bowl, and fortunately for them,

655
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 3: they did. Now, I think green Bay was a little

656
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 3: better and they beat them, you know, but I that

657
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 3: was unlike the Chicago game. The green Bay game was winnable.

658
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 3: The Chicago game was not winnable.

659
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 6: One other funny thing that stood out to me is

660
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 6: I found some footage of Eddie Anelman down at the

661
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 6: at the Super Bowl JO and he was like doing

662
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 6: a little show and he was telling Patriot fans to

663
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 6: call in and give these Miami people crap, you know.

664
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 6: So he's like and I feel like now the dichotomy

665
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 6: has kind of changed because I feel like the biggest

666
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 6: rival of Paul shows are the Patriots super fans who

667
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:35,560
Speaker 6: don't care, you know, they just were the best.

668
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: We're back.

669
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:40,000
Speaker 6: Everyone hates us defend the way, you know, that's their nemesis.

670
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 6: But back then it was almost like we're trying to

671
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 6: harness that strength because we're gonna win.

672
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 1: The Super Bowl and everybody's on board, and so super

673
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 1: fans you're talking about if we lose, we're still bad,

674
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,440
Speaker 1: We're still back. This wasn't a fluke.

675
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:54,720
Speaker 6: It's just different and I and I honestly think that

676
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 6: it's better now. It's better because it's better because Evan.

677
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 1: Can go back and forth with Bronco fans. It's you're

678
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:02,840
Speaker 1: not in your own little bubble. You know me, but

679
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 1: you know, oh, but would you rather have you work

680
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 1: for a team? And you can't get into it, but

681
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: you know if you didn't work for us, if you

682
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 1: were still with Clinics or whatever, you'd be right back

683
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 1: at put off the old thumbs last.

684
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 3: Weekend the media, I don't go out with the fans.

685
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 4: Me deciding that I am now going to tweet and

686
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,240
Speaker 4: then push away from the phone is one of the

687
00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:28,040
Speaker 4: better decisions I've ever made for my health and well

688
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 4: being playing.

689
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: I don't tweet a lot for that reason.

690
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 4: But like I do tweet a lot, but I don't

691
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 4: reply anymore.

692
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 1: My feeling is if you're not if you don't want

693
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 1: people to interact with you, don't tweet that like you're

694
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 1: just making proclamations, then you're not using it's not social media,

695
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:48,800
Speaker 1: it is because so like, if you're not and listen,

696
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:50,400
Speaker 1: I don't blame you. If you don't want to get

697
00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 1: into it, then stay off of it. Stay off of it.

698
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 4: I just it just doesn't mean no good to reply.

699
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:59,360
Speaker 4: So I for multiple reasons, but I mean you should

700
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:02,320
Speaker 4: read some of the replies to my tweets. Like during games, Oh,

701
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 4: I can only.

702
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 1: Imagine I get criticized the game so lit things are bad.

703
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:12,479
Speaker 1: You know, they're on me for being a homer.

704
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,760
Speaker 4: Well, it's not even criticism towards me, it's it's more

705
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 4: criticism towards what's happening in the game. And it will

706
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 4: be like the first quarter and the defense gives up

707
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 4: a scoring drive and it's fraud. It's like, I can't

708
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 4: stop anybody. It just you can't reply. You can't. Once

709
00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 4: you start replying, you're poking the hornet's nest, and it just.

710
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 3: All right off for this game, Yeah, let's get this game.

711
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 3: What are you most confident in? From the Patriots side,

712
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:45,760
Speaker 3: I was sort of thinking about confidence and concerns. What

713
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:48,000
Speaker 3: are you most confident in? I should have probably maybe

714
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,600
Speaker 3: brought this up pre show maybe a little show.

715
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 1: Well, I think it's a tough question, Paul.

716
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 6: That's why I'm taking a second to think about it,

717
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 6: because i'd love to say that I am one hundred

718
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,480
Speaker 6: percent sure that the Patriots are going to move the ball,

719
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 6: but I think the Chargers be really challenging.

720
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be it's going to be

721
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,600
Speaker 1: most confident if it's to remove the ball, I think.

722
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 6: I mean, but how and and does the run game

723
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 6: continue to carry over and produce?

724
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 1: Like they have the four guys that I'm most confident in,

725
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,280
Speaker 1: it's Drake May, I agree with the two running backs,

726
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 1: and it's Digs. Those four guys, I'm pretty sure we're

727
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 1: going to produce. I'm pretty I'm pretty sure those four

728
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 1: people will produce.

729
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 3: I'm not sure about the two running backs, but I

730
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:31,880
Speaker 3: have a lot of faith in May in the passing game,

731
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 3: regardless of who he's throwing it too. He's done it

732
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:35,960
Speaker 3: all year with different guys, so I don't know who

733
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 3: the guy is going to be. You know, maybe it's

734
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 3: Digs that's probably the most likely. But yeah, I have

735
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 3: I have faith in in May.

736
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 1: But if you have faith in May, he has to

737
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:46,720
Speaker 1: throw it to somebody. So who do you have faith

738
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 1: in that's gonna be on the and the guy who

739
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 1: can go.

740
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:53,320
Speaker 3: Like this Hunter Hunter Henry and Stefan Diggs. I have

741
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 3: a lot of faith in.

742
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 4: I think they're going to try to take those two

743
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 4: guys away. So so I think that that's going to

744
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 4: be the game within the game is going to be

745
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 4: just you know, Kai Shaan Boodie, Kyle Williams, you know,

746
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,840
Speaker 4: the running backs in the passing game against some of

747
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 4: these secondary players for getting someone No, I'm not some

748
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:17,359
Speaker 4: of the some of these Tomorrow Douglas, some of these

749
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 4: secondary players, uh for the Chargers, you know, Cam Hart,

750
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,799
Speaker 4: Benjamin Saint ju just their safeties like are you know

751
00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:28,040
Speaker 4: those are It's not I don't know if if Jesse

752
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 4: Minter is gonna let Stefan Diggs beat him, so like

753
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,520
Speaker 4: it's probably gonna have to be. They're gonna clamp down

754
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:35,840
Speaker 4: on the middle of the field with Diggs and Henry

755
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 4: and the matchups that are going to decide the game

756
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:39,759
Speaker 4: might be on the outside.

757
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:43,439
Speaker 3: Now, forgive me, I didn't read the four thousand word

758
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 3: opus yet you can't.

759
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:45,400
Speaker 1: Can't.

760
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:47,320
Speaker 4: It'll be available to everybody.

761
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 3: Tomorrow what specifically with jesse Minter, he's good, good co

762
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,280
Speaker 3: Do you think they're gonna be things that maybe catch

763
00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 3: Josh McDaniels and Drake May off guard or do they

764
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 3: just do they do extremely well?

765
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:03,719
Speaker 4: I think it's the second one. So they play a

766
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:05,840
Speaker 4: lot of zone. They played like eighty one percent of

767
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 4: their snaps in zone. They play a lot of quarters specifically,

768
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:11,880
Speaker 4: which we can get into. But I think the biggest

769
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 4: thing that I see with them this happened against Houston.

770
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,839
Speaker 4: You know, first half against Houston, Stroud completes those two

771
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 4: bombs for touchdowns to the two Iowa State kids, and

772
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,399
Speaker 4: then Mint just started blitzing the crap out of them

773
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:26,320
Speaker 4: in the second half. And it seems like the curveball

774
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:28,800
Speaker 4: or like the change up for jesse Minner is pressure.

775
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,759
Speaker 4: Like if he starts to see that the quarterback is

776
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,359
Speaker 4: just sitting back there and the you know, zones are

777
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:37,160
Speaker 4: not holding up, then he's going to start bringing pressure.

778
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,360
Speaker 4: So if I was the Patriots, that would be what

779
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:42,319
Speaker 4: I would be working all week on. Like, I have

780
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 4: a lot of confidence in Drake May finding open receivers

781
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 4: against zone coverage. He's been doing it all year. As

782
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:51,239
Speaker 4: Paul said, what happens when they start getting a little

783
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,440
Speaker 4: bit crazy and they start dialing pressure up and they

784
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 4: have to figure out answers to zone pressures or cover

785
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:00,959
Speaker 4: zero or whatever the case may be. You have those

786
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,759
Speaker 4: types of things. So if I was Josh McDaniels, like

787
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,279
Speaker 4: that would be what's keeping me up at night. Is

788
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 4: like what happens when the game sort of pivots right,

789
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 4: Like he's not gonna sit in quarters the entire game

790
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,160
Speaker 4: because it's going to be too easy for McDaniels in may.

791
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:19,800
Speaker 4: So at some point he's going to flip a switch

792
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 4: and say, we're going to start bringing the heat. And

793
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:24,319
Speaker 4: at that point, do you have the answers to the

794
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:25,319
Speaker 4: pressure that they bring?

795
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:27,839
Speaker 3: Do you agree to That's like from when you when

796
00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 3: you watch the third I.

797
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,880
Speaker 6: Only watch the third mediums pot. I think, no, it

798
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 6: sounds I mean yeah, no, I mean obviously I trust

799
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 6: Evan's coverage, and yeah, I mean that.

800
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:36,279
Speaker 1: The zone stuff.

801
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:38,640
Speaker 6: I mean I just went through, you know, stacking up

802
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:40,839
Speaker 6: all the different how they rank up, and I mean

803
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:43,680
Speaker 6: everything he's saying stacks up with with what the next

804
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:47,400
Speaker 6: gen stats, and yeah, I just it, Like I like

805
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 6: what Gary Blount said, Yes, Blunt what he said yesterday,

806
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:53,279
Speaker 6: just whatever you're expecting it to be, it's going to

807
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,640
Speaker 6: be something totally different. And I think that that could

808
00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:58,160
Speaker 6: be a case. And you know, to Evan's point, we've

809
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 6: seen times this year where Patriots offense looks one way

810
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:02,879
Speaker 6: and then all of a sudden, it looks another way

811
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 6: for a while. No, that happens a lot in the playoffs,

812
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:08,360
Speaker 6: and it's does it stagnate it first and they figure

813
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:10,360
Speaker 6: it out or do they come out guns blazing and

814
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 6: then the adjustment kind of gets them. Hopefully they can

815
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,399
Speaker 6: stay ahead of that. And I just think the run game,

816
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,040
Speaker 6: you know, like that's to me that if if they

817
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:20,400
Speaker 6: can lean on that and they can be successful with that,

818
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:21,759
Speaker 6: I think that'll.

819
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:23,960
Speaker 1: Worry about that then too. Hither run game.

820
00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:26,239
Speaker 4: Worries me against this team, particularly because they got big

821
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 4: dudes up front, and Derwin James is a really good

822
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:30,879
Speaker 4: run player as well, and he's been playing a lot

823
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:33,319
Speaker 4: in the slot and in the box for them, kind

824
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:36,319
Speaker 4: of like basically like a linebacker. So like, I don't

825
00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,479
Speaker 4: know if you can run the ball against this front, Well,

826
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:38,879
Speaker 4: it's a.

827
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 1: Bunch of big nights. I lean on the performance of

828
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,439
Speaker 1: the last and in the last quarter of our run

829
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:48,800
Speaker 1: game in giving that you know your your guy mintor

830
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:52,760
Speaker 1: something to think about there, and okay, you know stack

831
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:56,319
Speaker 1: the box all right. I think Josh McDaniel and May

832
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,880
Speaker 1: will recognize that, and I think we have an answer

833
00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:02,240
Speaker 1: for that. We're balance enough to be able to answer

834
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,719
Speaker 1: to that. And so that's why I have faith in

835
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 1: May and confidence in May in the offense in general

836
00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:11,360
Speaker 1: to be able to produce this game. I agree.

837
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 3: I think that's what yeah, most confident.

838
00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:14,960
Speaker 4: To me, that's the way you win this game, Like,

839
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 4: you got to get ahead, score score because they can't score.

840
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:21,640
Speaker 4: So I would put points on the board as quickly

841
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:24,400
Speaker 4: as you possibly can and make them play from behind

842
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,439
Speaker 4: and make that offensive line pass protect forty forty five

843
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:29,800
Speaker 4: times in Sunday's game, and I think you're going to

844
00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,319
Speaker 4: be in good shape. But you know, they they stop

845
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,440
Speaker 4: to run really well. They've been a little bit leaky

846
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 4: on the big plays lately, but they're pretty good at

847
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:41,200
Speaker 4: stopping big plays through the air. So it's just that's

848
00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:42,359
Speaker 4: the way that they kind of play.

849
00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:46,400
Speaker 1: What's the thing that wearries you the most, Herbert.

850
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:48,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I would say what worries me the most is

851
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 4: that the Patriots won't have enough pass rush to really

852
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:53,520
Speaker 4: exploit their offense.

853
00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:56,600
Speaker 3: They don't get the lead, and the Chargers can throw

854
00:38:56,920 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 3: as they want to, and they have a diverse passing

855
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 3: game that I think will give the Patriots secondary and

856
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:04,479
Speaker 3: then I can handle.

857
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:06,719
Speaker 1: And then I worry that they'll get too aggressive on

858
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:08,720
Speaker 1: defense and they'll get burned.

859
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,200
Speaker 6: They'll have to start blitzing and trying to figure out

860
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 6: a way to produce some pressure.

861
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:14,960
Speaker 3: You know, that would be my biggest concern is that

862
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:19,800
Speaker 3: Herbert gets hot. And they have we talked about yesterday,

863
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,000
Speaker 3: three or four guys. They're more than comfortable. You know,

864
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,200
Speaker 3: that guy can be the volume guy today. That guy

865
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:26,760
Speaker 3: can be the big play guy today.

866
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 4: They have to. It's hard to stop those Christian Barmore

867
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 4: have to dominate. They have to wreck the game.

868
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,879
Speaker 1: So is the thing that's held the Charges from being

869
00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 1: an explosive offense. Back to the offensive line.

870
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:41,120
Speaker 6: It's horrid, yeah, and I saw something today. It's like

871
00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 6: historically horrid.

872
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:42,880
Speaker 2: Yeah.

873
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:46,360
Speaker 3: And it's it's not just like they have some of

874
00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:46,760
Speaker 3: the guys.

875
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:51,480
Speaker 1: Their lines worse than our schedule their line last year here.

876
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:56,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, my rankings, okay, so fifty to nothing and Herbert

877
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,720
Speaker 3: was sacked fifty four times. You know, everybody is focused

878
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,360
Speaker 3: on Alton Slater and those guys. I mean, first of all,

879
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:03,800
Speaker 3: they are two really good tackles that they lost, which

880
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:07,240
Speaker 3: obviously chips away at your depth. But they were missing

881
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:10,279
Speaker 3: guards all year too, Like Mikai Beckton missed the chunk

882
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 3: of the season in the middle, hasn't been as good

883
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:17,040
Speaker 3: when he was out there. The BC kid Zion Johnson

884
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 3: sort of been a little inconsistent. He They've been without

885
00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 3: a lot of their personnel on the line for large

886
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,400
Speaker 3: chunks of the year. I think that they've kind of

887
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 3: settled it a little bit, like the backups that are

888
00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 3: settled into the tackle spots. I wish I had their

889
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,279
Speaker 3: game the game, No, but I wish I had their

890
00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:41,400
Speaker 3: game to game. I feel like those guys is at

891
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:45,680
Speaker 3: Sailure and Pimpkins. They've been in there, I think the

892
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:49,359
Speaker 3: last few weeks, and it's kind of stabilized a little bit.

893
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 3: You know, it's not going to be guys, but it's

894
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:53,319
Speaker 3: not going to be ideal for them no matter what.

895
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:57,080
Speaker 3: But I think Herbert is sort of after being under

896
00:40:57,080 --> 00:41:00,400
Speaker 3: siege for you know, the middle of the season, I

897
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:02,960
Speaker 3: think he sort of understands a little bit. Okay, this

898
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 3: is what it's going to be. I'm working around it. Yeah,

899
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 3: and maybe it'll be too much for him and he

900
00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:09,200
Speaker 3: won't be able to do it in the playoffs, and

901
00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 3: then the Herbert haters will tell you he's not going

902
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:13,200
Speaker 3: to win in the playoffs.

903
00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:13,840
Speaker 1: Yeah.

904
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,719
Speaker 4: He hasn't been particularly good against pressure this year.

905
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just and the Patriots haven't been good at

906
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 1: getting pressure.

907
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:23,080
Speaker 6: So that's the that's the labor of average I would say,

908
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:25,319
Speaker 6: I mean, I would say their pass us is average pressure. Yeah,

909
00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 6: pressure eight, but uh, you know backup having I mean

910
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,600
Speaker 6: sixty seven point one QB rating under pressure one O

911
00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:32,759
Speaker 6: nine point eight with no pressure for yeah.

912
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they think they had leads a lot,

913
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 1: so that helped.

914
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:38,080
Speaker 3: And I think that's when the Patriots get pressure, like

915
00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:41,280
Speaker 3: in the fourth quarter Sunday when they were killing Zach Wilson, right.

916
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:44,160
Speaker 4: Like they play they need to like you know, the

917
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:46,759
Speaker 4: Chargers want want to shrink the game, they want to

918
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 4: choke you out. They have a good defense. Number one

919
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:50,879
Speaker 4: drive time, They're not going to give up a lot

920
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:53,520
Speaker 4: of points. That's how they feel. At least they are

921
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 4: second in the league in time of possession. Like, so

922
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:57,480
Speaker 4: they want to choke out the game. And if I'm

923
00:41:57,480 --> 00:41:59,399
Speaker 4: the Patriots, you want to do the opposite. You want

924
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 4: to turn this thing and to attract me, Like you

925
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:03,799
Speaker 4: want to put points on the board, and you want

926
00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:06,680
Speaker 4: to make Herbert drop back as many times as you

927
00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 4: possibly can. If he turns into the grinded out rock

928
00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:14,560
Speaker 4: fight type of game, then that gives a Chargers punters chance.

929
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,800
Speaker 3: Short possession game where you know, you get in the

930
00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 3: ball six or seven times instead of eight or nine. Right, Yeah,

931
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:22,239
Speaker 3: it's advantage they want to do. They want to play

932
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 3: they do all year.

933
00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:26,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, and they're very good on third down offensively, Uh,

934
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,920
Speaker 4: they're very good at moving chains and staying on the

935
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,440
Speaker 4: field and all that kind of stuff. So you just

936
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:33,640
Speaker 4: that's the type of game that they want to play.

937
00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:36,239
Speaker 4: And I think the Patriots have the ability because of

938
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:38,440
Speaker 4: how explosive their offense is, they have the ability to

939
00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 4: play the other way. And I think you need to

940
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:42,160
Speaker 4: kind of come in and try to boat raise them.

941
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:43,880
Speaker 6: That's just who's going to make the place on defense.

942
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:46,439
Speaker 6: And that's you know, also four and fourth in place

943
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:48,799
Speaker 6: per drive. I mean, so they're just and we've seen

944
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:50,800
Speaker 6: the Patriots defense when they're at their worst over the

945
00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:53,000
Speaker 6: last few weeks of just nobody can make a play,

946
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:56,000
Speaker 6: you know. I mean teams are just six yards four yards,

947
00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:58,480
Speaker 6: eight yards four yards, you know, right down the field.

948
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,799
Speaker 6: That's what scares me is allowing them to just put

949
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,080
Speaker 6: those drives and it's going to have can't get it.

950
00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:06,680
Speaker 1: They'll probably be there should be a couple of drive.

951
00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:09,920
Speaker 6: That are seven plays and and you got to make

952
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,200
Speaker 6: a red zone stop. And you know, there's just there's

953
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:13,799
Speaker 6: these little flaws that you can point out on this

954
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:16,239
Speaker 6: Patriots team that you just you wonder when you get

955
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:19,040
Speaker 6: in to these playoff games, what's gonna matter and what's

956
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:20,919
Speaker 6: not going to matter. Does the red zone defense matter?

957
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 6: Do they get some red zone stops? Because now you

958
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:24,920
Speaker 6: do it in the playoffs. You can say they were

959
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:26,960
Speaker 6: thirty second all year long, but you get two stops

960
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:28,399
Speaker 6: and that's the difference in the game.

961
00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:30,279
Speaker 1: Then this isn't the old days where you get to

962
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:31,239
Speaker 1: buy your first game.

963
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:34,759
Speaker 3: Well, and Mike's point is really valid to you know,

964
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:37,880
Speaker 3: like all of these kinds of things playoff games, you're

965
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 3: expecting to have a tight game and those are the

966
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,200
Speaker 3: little things that decide the games. Can you make the

967
00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:45,480
Speaker 3: four point play. Can you get a stop in the

968
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:48,799
Speaker 3: red zone and the other team doesn't you you are

969
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:51,360
Speaker 3: able to convert in the redstone. That's that's how the

970
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:54,799
Speaker 3: separation happens. You know, you went forward on fourth down

971
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:56,800
Speaker 3: twice and you got one. They went forward and fourth

972
00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:58,799
Speaker 3: down twice and you stopped them both times. You know

973
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:02,200
Speaker 3: those that's the different in the game. Steal a possession here, yep.

974
00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:04,040
Speaker 3: You know it doesn't have to be like, well, you

975
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:07,759
Speaker 3: gotta win the turnover battle, no poop. Yeah, you know,

976
00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:10,040
Speaker 3: like obviously you want to win the turnover battle. But

977
00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:13,920
Speaker 3: those key plays in every game has I don't know,

978
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:16,319
Speaker 3: eight or ten of them? Do you win more than

979
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:18,960
Speaker 3: you lose? You get the third and one? Do you

980
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 3: stop their third and one's? And that's why I brought

981
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:21,360
Speaker 3: that up.

982
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:23,359
Speaker 4: Now I want to play that kind of team.

983
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:24,839
Speaker 3: I don't want to play that kind of game either,

984
00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:26,920
Speaker 3: But that's what these games generally come down to.

985
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:29,000
Speaker 1: And that's and that's why I want you for third

986
00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:30,600
Speaker 1: mediums because I feel.

987
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:32,720
Speaker 6: Like the third and mediums are where a lot of games,

988
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:33,440
Speaker 6: those are the.

989
00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:35,400
Speaker 3: Margins seven and I had no interest in watching the

990
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:37,720
Speaker 3: third medium, So you picked us up in that regard.

991
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:41,200
Speaker 4: I just watch all the third down. I don't stereotype

992
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:44,160
Speaker 4: against the specific kind of third down. I just I

993
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:47,480
Speaker 4: think with this Chargers team, they're really well coached, They're

994
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:51,320
Speaker 4: really good situationally, like third down, third and shorts, things

995
00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:53,440
Speaker 4: like that. I would not want to play that kind

996
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:55,000
Speaker 4: of game with them. I would want to play a

997
00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 4: game where our offense is healthier and is better than yours,

998
00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:01,480
Speaker 4: and we're just gonna hang points on the board that

999
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 4: you can't keep up with. Yeah, because if you start

1000
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:06,319
Speaker 4: to get into like oh it's you know, we got

1001
00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,359
Speaker 4: to convert this fourth down or we got to get

1002
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:11,439
Speaker 4: this red zone stop or whatever, like that's their game,

1003
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:14,359
Speaker 4: Like that is how they beat teams. So I just

1004
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,319
Speaker 4: think that this is one of those games where I

1005
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:17,680
Speaker 4: think the Patriots are the better team.

1006
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 1: So, like I always, how big a margin.

1007
00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:25,920
Speaker 4: I think they're I don't know if it's a huge margin,

1008
00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:26,879
Speaker 4: but I think they're a better team.

1009
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:28,879
Speaker 1: I don't mean points. I mean just like, you know,

1010
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:31,200
Speaker 1: our team is better than you buy a lot or

1011
00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 1: a little or.

1012
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:34,719
Speaker 4: You know enough that I think that if the Patriots

1013
00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:37,399
Speaker 4: don't shoot themselves in the foot, they could win this game.

1014
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:39,879
Speaker 1: Came Okay, so if you play clean football, you win.

1015
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,279
Speaker 4: I think that if they play clean football and play

1016
00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:46,439
Speaker 4: to the level that we've seen them play all year,

1017
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,879
Speaker 4: that this could be kind of an easy win.

1018
00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:52,080
Speaker 1: But you know, easy is the wrong word, Like that

1019
00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:55,920
Speaker 1: games that they've won, they've had lapses, you know, second

1020
00:45:56,040 --> 00:46:00,280
Speaker 1: quarter or whatever. Can you afford to have a as

1021
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:01,960
Speaker 1: in this game? Or do you have to play full

1022
00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:02,760
Speaker 1: sixty minutes?

1023
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:04,359
Speaker 4: I think you can afford it.

1024
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:07,600
Speaker 6: It's the playoff team. I think they're just guaranteed to justin.

1025
00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:09,560
Speaker 6: Herbert's going to put a couple drives together and you

1026
00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:12,279
Speaker 6: just have to be ready to accept that. I mean,

1027
00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:13,719
Speaker 6: this is a good team. This is the playoffs.

1028
00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:16,280
Speaker 1: This is I mean. And the thing that we almost

1029
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:18,279
Speaker 1: have to do and we forget to do is look

1030
00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:21,040
Speaker 1: at it from the Chargers side, like what are they

1031
00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:24,480
Speaker 1: worried about? Like like can they afford to have a lapse?

1032
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:26,360
Speaker 4: I think what I would worry about if I was

1033
00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:29,080
Speaker 4: the Chargers, and what I'd be also feeling good about.

1034
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:31,560
Speaker 4: If I start with the feeling good, I'd feel good

1035
00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:34,479
Speaker 4: about the fact that you're not facing a dominant pass rush,

1036
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:36,000
Speaker 4: so like you can.

1037
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:37,640
Speaker 1: It was Houston or you know what I mean, and

1038
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:38,520
Speaker 1: that's the time.

1039
00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:42,880
Speaker 4: So you could realistically say, yeah, like Milton Williams and

1040
00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:45,799
Speaker 4: Barmore are nice on the inside, but we we don't

1041
00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:47,799
Speaker 4: feel like we're going to be overwhelmed on the line

1042
00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,680
Speaker 4: of scrimmage offensively. I think the concern that I would

1043
00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 4: have if I was a Charger fan is that May

1044
00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:57,799
Speaker 4: and McDaniels have just continuedly shredded zone. And if you're

1045
00:46:57,840 --> 00:46:59,799
Speaker 4: gonna sit in zone against the Patriots, I think you're

1046
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:03,440
Speaker 4: gonna have trouble stopping them. So if you're the Chargers,

1047
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:05,920
Speaker 4: like can you pivot to more man to man? Can

1048
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:08,360
Speaker 4: you pivot to something else? They're not really built to

1049
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:11,839
Speaker 4: do that, so like where where does that rubber meet

1050
00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:14,040
Speaker 4: the road? Like are they able to come up with

1051
00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:16,960
Speaker 4: something else that's a change up? But maybe the Patriots

1052
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:20,439
Speaker 4: aren't as expecting as much to pivot to if Drake

1053
00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:24,320
Speaker 4: May goes touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, because you're sitting in quarters

1054
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:25,759
Speaker 4: and he's just okay coming in.

1055
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:27,160
Speaker 1: Do we have Rabel today?

1056
00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:27,680
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1057
00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:30,439
Speaker 1: Ye? Okay, right real quick?

1058
00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:33,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, reminder Stevenson AFC Offensive Player of.

1059
00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:35,480
Speaker 1: The Week, Oh we go. So I think that's like

1060
00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:38,920
Speaker 1: multiple times we've got that award right's six times this

1061
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:42,600
Speaker 1: season of seventeen or eighteen weeks. Yeah, and six different

1062
00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:43,200
Speaker 1: players too.

1063
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:45,360
Speaker 3: The reasons why I have a lot of confidence that

1064
00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:47,560
Speaker 3: Patriots moved the ball on Sunday night.

1065
00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:50,279
Speaker 6: Yeah, we went back before catch twenty two.

1066
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:51,160
Speaker 1: Barth was hanging out.

1067
00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:52,920
Speaker 6: We were trying to figure out how many times they

1068
00:47:52,920 --> 00:47:55,600
Speaker 6: they've had multiple guys win this award. And I think

1069
00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:57,440
Speaker 6: this is at least as far as we could see

1070
00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:00,000
Speaker 6: a team record. That's six different thirty.

1071
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:02,280
Speaker 1: Cent of the season the Patriots have had that award.

1072
00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:06,239
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, it's three times on Session's amazing, Chase on

1073
00:48:06,239 --> 00:48:09,560
Speaker 6: on defense and May yeah, so yeah, and then and

1074
00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:12,000
Speaker 6: now steven since the sixth yeah, O three, they had

1075
00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:14,840
Speaker 6: a bunch a bunch of special teamers like Bethel Johnson

1076
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 6: and uh I think the other one was oh seven,

1077
00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:18,919
Speaker 6: but it was like Brady had like four of them.

1078
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,840
Speaker 6: So you know, that's all right. Let's get some phone

1079
00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:22,520
Speaker 6: calls in here.

1080
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:23,000
Speaker 9: Uh.

1081
00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:27,879
Speaker 1: I know people are waiting to get involved, So let's

1082
00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 1: start with Danny and Daytona. What's up, Danny?

1083
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:32,520

Speaker 2: Uh calling back.

Speaker 9: I tried to call it, so I just wanted to

1087
00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:40,160
Speaker 9: time in the first thing I wanted to say was

1088
00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:44,080
Speaker 9: it was a good game. You know, Miami just moved

1089
00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:46,600
Speaker 9: past that. Uh. I am tired of the whole Drake

1090
00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:48,600
Speaker 9: Drake made nickname. So let's move past that.

1091
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:51,759
Speaker 1: Okay, it's your show, Danny, you tell us what to do.

1092
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:53,600
Speaker 4: I agree, Danny here spot on.

1093
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:57,840
Speaker 9: Uh So let's move past that. Like said, uh to

1094
00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:01,000
Speaker 9: Evansborn I called, you know, spoken early or twenty two.

1095
00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:02,879
Speaker 10: I do.

1096
00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:06,040
Speaker 9: There's well two things. Actually. The first thing is I

1097
00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:08,960
Speaker 9: think the Pop Douglas should be a big factor in

1098
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:12,439
Speaker 9: this game. I was watching this kind on CBS. He's

1099
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:15,759
Speaker 9: talked about with Matt Ryan that they should have used

1100
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:20,680
Speaker 9: Pop Douglas and and I guess step On too to

1101
00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:24,680
Speaker 9: kind of like stretch the field horizontally, just because the

1102
00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:28,000
Speaker 9: Chargers have a really good safety and corner group. So

1103
00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:31,759
Speaker 9: if we're able to stress the field, which Josh likes

1104
00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:34,759
Speaker 9: to do, those those bubble screens and those crops, you know,

1105
00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:38,520
Speaker 9: those slants and outs and whatnot, and ends, if we

1106
00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:41,160
Speaker 9: can use pop Douglas and maybe a couple other good

1107
00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:44,800
Speaker 9: receivers a little smaller shifty, maybe y'all Paull favorite e

1108
00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:47,640
Speaker 9: f and Chism throw them in there, Uh, kind of

1109
00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:51,840
Speaker 9: having some confusion maybe blocking or whatever. Then some designs

1110
00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:55,399
Speaker 9: off of that. I think that'll kind of kind of

1111
00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:57,840
Speaker 9: throw off the Chargers because they're you know, if we

1112
00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:00,400
Speaker 9: showed some looks like we're trying to target downfield, but

1113
00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:02,840
Speaker 9: we're really just throwing in the middle, you know, it

1114
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:05,600
Speaker 9: might get set him up. So I think that's one thing.

1115
00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:08,800
Speaker 9: The other day, when the time in is on the

1116
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:11,799
Speaker 9: the coaching carousals, are you guys surprised to see that

1117
00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:16,960
Speaker 9: Detroit blew out their staff, Washington blew out their staff, Dallas,

1118
00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:19,680
Speaker 9: I'm not surprised. Ebra Flus. I don't see how he

1119
00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:22,720
Speaker 9: could find himself another job. He should have been fired

1120
00:50:22,719 --> 00:50:26,919
Speaker 9: a long time ago. And then the other thing, uh.

1121
00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:28,560
Speaker 1: Show.

1122
00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:34,040
Speaker 9: Yeah, Arizona was talking about or somebody mentioned on the

1123
00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:37,759
Speaker 9: broadcast about bringing Josh McDaniels there, but I don't see

1124
00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:42,320
Speaker 9: that happening. I did talk about Devin earlier, about Thomas Brown,

1125
00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:45,000
Speaker 9: Thomas Brown saying that they were gonna interview him there

1126
00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:48,440
Speaker 9: with Arizona, and then uh, and then Brady. The last

1127
00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:53,880
Speaker 9: thing with the with the Raiders. Didn't know the Raiders

1128
00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:58,200
Speaker 9: are paying fire coaches fifty five millions that's even including

1129
00:50:58,280 --> 00:50:59,520
Speaker 9: Josh McDaniels.

1130
00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:02,080
Speaker 1: And that's a lot of Pizza Hut commercials.

1131
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:04,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's almost like the owners have a lot of money.

1132
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:06,160
Speaker 3: Thanks Danny, appreciate the call.

1133
00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:08,280
Speaker 6: I don't think this will be a big pop. Douglas

1134
00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:10,279
Speaker 6: well every thinking of his own thing. I mean, this

1135
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:12,120
Speaker 6: have his own team, is this you know idea?

1136
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:15,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I don't like this is not like I

1137
00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:17,640
Speaker 4: didn't like. You can take all the bubble screens and

1138
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:19,880
Speaker 4: send them someplace else this week, like this is you

1139
00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:20,919
Speaker 4: want to get down the field.

1140
00:51:20,960 --> 00:51:23,480
Speaker 3: I'd like to see Booty, you know, get back to

1141
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:25,239
Speaker 3: the way it was earlier in the season and catch

1142
00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:26,360
Speaker 3: a couple of bombs.

1143
00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:29,480
Speaker 1: I mean, how often in the playoffs do guys emerge

1144
00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:33,320
Speaker 1: and do things that they didn't do in the regular season.

1145
00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:36,719
Speaker 1: That's good question.

1146
00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:39,400
Speaker 6: My mind goes right to, like Malcolm Mitchell is a

1147
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:42,080
Speaker 6: guy that maybe stuffed up and maybe exceeded in production.

1148
00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:45,279
Speaker 4: Guy on the Seahawks and Super Bowl forty nine that

1149
00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:50,520
Speaker 4: was freaking yeah, yeah, yeah, it was god that.

1150
00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:51,839
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1151
00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:53,640
Speaker 3: I don't think that happens all that often. But I

1152
00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:55,759
Speaker 3: could see Douglas. I mean, Douglas has been a part

1153
00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:57,840
Speaker 3: of the offense periodically.

1154
00:51:57,160 --> 00:51:59,120
Speaker 6: Throughout the Yeah, yeah, he pops up Douglas.

1155
00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:01,319
Speaker 3: But I don'tdn't think like to Fred's point, I don't

1156
00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:03,000
Speaker 3: think it's going to be an eight for one hundred

1157
00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:06,239
Speaker 3: and twenty for Douglas. It might be three, right, you know,

1158
00:52:06,360 --> 00:52:07,880
Speaker 3: and you say, wow, Pop Dogg has had a really

1159
00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:09,640
Speaker 3: good game today, Like I could see that, But he's

1160
00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:11,600
Speaker 3: done that periodically throughout the scene.

1161
00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:14,040
Speaker 4: If they play like Houston or Denver, then Pop Douglas

1162
00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:17,560
Speaker 4: will have have a have his day. I think when

1163
00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:20,239
Speaker 4: teams that play more man to man, uh this this

1164
00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:23,719
Speaker 4: team plays a lot of that, like Exotic Zone, so

1165
00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:25,600
Speaker 4: like it's going to be reading it out, it's going

1166
00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:27,359
Speaker 4: to be knowing where the soft spots are.

1167
00:52:28,160 --> 00:52:31,359
Speaker 3: You know, he wouldn't, I agree with you, And he's

1168
00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:34,319
Speaker 3: like he wouldn't see Lass or Stingley, right, And then

1169
00:52:34,400 --> 00:52:36,960
Speaker 3: if they're playing man, yeah, he's going to get like

1170
00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:38,560
Speaker 3: the third corner.

1171
00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:41,120
Speaker 4: They usually play, the fourth, they usually play the safety.

1172
00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:45,439
Speaker 1: Petra right, the always optimistic Christian from LA what's up?

1173
00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:49,040
Speaker 11: Hey you guys, Hey, you guys, Hey, you guys. You

1174
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:52,799
Speaker 11: know what I gotta say. I want to ask if

1175
00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:55,719
Speaker 11: anybody out there feels the way I feel and and

1176
00:52:55,800 --> 00:53:00,000
Speaker 11: that's like Peter fran that was there, well, the Patriots

1177
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:03,839
Speaker 11: that was there, like as the dynasty came together right

1178
00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:06,520
Speaker 11: in the heyday of the dynasty, that took it personally,

1179
00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:08,759
Speaker 11: that made it part of my personality. I was a

1180
00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:11,200
Speaker 11: winner because the Pats were winners, right, and then to

1181
00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:16,000
Speaker 11: see it all collapse. But now to see a spark, right,

1182
00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:18,400
Speaker 11: like a real spark. And it's not like we have

1183
00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:21,640
Speaker 11: the second year quarterback that's kind of coming along and

1184
00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:25,160
Speaker 11: the team's colassic, but this kid is like amazing, right,

1185
00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:28,480
Speaker 11: like like really amazing, and it makes it, it makes

1186
00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:30,760
Speaker 11: them different because it makes it feel like we actually

1187
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:33,319
Speaker 11: have a kind of chance to be that good at

1188
00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:36,279
Speaker 11: some point again. And so with that like waving but

1189
00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:39,000
Speaker 11: falling up to my check, I'm feeling like a thirty

1190
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:42,839
Speaker 11: eight ten victory. And then onto this colossal matchup gets

1191
00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:45,160
Speaker 11: Buffalo in the AFC Championship game.

1192
00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:45,560
Speaker 4: But if.

1193
00:53:51,280 --> 00:53:54,560
Speaker 11: If the team's like journey ends of this week, we

1194
00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:58,520
Speaker 11: still win. We won the season, We won the proverbial

1195
00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:01,560
Speaker 11: war of tandis organization can rebuild and then we win

1196
00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,400
Speaker 11: the future. And so that makes me feel like like

1197
00:54:04,520 --> 00:54:07,479
Speaker 11: we are witnessed again, like the heyday, I'm doing thirty eight.

1198
00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:10,560
Speaker 1: Pens because one visit to the picklebar and he's ready

1199
00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:10,839
Speaker 1: to go.

1200
00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:15,560
Speaker 4: I would just you know, the caller before, all right, Christian,

1201
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:18,840
Speaker 4: but the caller before I mentioned some of the coaching changes,

1202
00:54:19,040 --> 00:54:22,440
Speaker 4: coordinator levels and stuff like that, Like Washington was just

1203
00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:23,920
Speaker 4: in the NFC Championship game.

1204
00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:25,360
Speaker 1: Last year and now they and what good did it?

1205
00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:26,400
Speaker 1: Tom fired both.

1206
00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:31,760
Speaker 4: Their coordinators or cod Dude, if Detroit was the same spot,

1207
00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:33,720
Speaker 4: shame their offensive.

1208
00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:36,200
Speaker 1: But if we do, if we if we make a

1209
00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:41,000
Speaker 1: run next year, get during the year. Yeah, yeah, I

1210
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:41,399
Speaker 1: don't know.

1211
00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:45,760
Speaker 3: I'm I'm just saying Matt was like one year in Dallas,

1212
00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:47,319
Speaker 3: Like it's like he should have been gone a long

1213
00:54:47,360 --> 00:54:49,640
Speaker 3: time ago. Like he's just like it was his show.

1214
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:52,160
Speaker 3: You know, we're just like living it. But I know

1215
00:54:52,239 --> 00:54:53,120
Speaker 3: he was talking.

1216
00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:55,800
Speaker 4: About the NFL is a year to year thing happens

1217
00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:57,839
Speaker 4: all the time. Twenty twenty six could be a very

1218
00:54:57,880 --> 00:54:58,520
Speaker 4: different thing.

1219
00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:01,040
Speaker 1: Could be and it probably will be better or worse.

1220
00:55:01,520 --> 00:55:07,399
Speaker 1: Brad's in Ohio. What's up, Brad? How you gots doing doing?

1221
00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:08,240
Speaker 1: All right? Brad?

1222
00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:10,640
Speaker 2: All right?

1223
00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:14,960
Speaker 9: I agree with a whole few about jesse Mentor.

1224
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:21,400
Speaker 11: I did watch him in Michigan when he's the defensive

1225
00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:27,160
Speaker 11: have dried. Yeah, there's there's gonna be.

1226
00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:33,880
Speaker 3: Time pressure and there's times you.

1227
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:36,680
Speaker 1: Gotta talking to the phone. I think he has a back.

1228
00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:38,759
Speaker 11: They're going to.

1229
00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:43,400
Speaker 1: Okay, we're losing your Sorry about that.

1230
00:55:43,239 --> 00:55:45,920
Speaker 3: But I do think I understand and and Evan was

1231
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:49,120
Speaker 3: nodding to you know, Minter is a guy who has

1232
00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:52,960
Speaker 3: a clue. You know, he did some NFL type stuff

1233
00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:57,480
Speaker 3: at Michigan with Harbaugh. Those guys have been together. There's

1234
00:55:57,480 --> 00:55:59,760
Speaker 3: the reason why Jesse Mintter is one of the guys

1235
00:55:59,760 --> 00:56:03,720
Speaker 3: that's being talked about to fill one of these seven openings.

1236
00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:05,920
Speaker 3: He's had a really, really good couple of years with

1237
00:56:05,960 --> 00:56:06,840
Speaker 3: the Chardgers.

1238
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:07,440
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1239
00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:10,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, wouldn't be surprised that Baltimore gives him a real

1240
00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:11,320
Speaker 3: good looks.

1241
00:56:11,719 --> 00:56:14,080
Speaker 1: He was there. He was there, Brad.

1242
00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:17,000
Speaker 4: I knew Brad's a Michigan guy, so I should haven't

1243
00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:20,160
Speaker 4: seen that one. He must have gone to the machine.

1244
00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:25,040
Speaker 1: We have some feedback on the fan mentality. A bunch

1245
00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:28,040
Speaker 1: of emails Spencer Wrights and Patrios fans are preparing to

1246
00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:31,680
Speaker 1: lose because we went four and thirteen back to back seasons.

1247
00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:33,960
Speaker 1: These same fans, of course want us to win the

1248
00:56:33,960 --> 00:56:38,160
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Well, I mean, maybe they're preparing to lose.

1249
00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:40,200
Speaker 1: But I'm what I'm saying is, because you went four

1250
00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:43,759
Speaker 1: and thirteen last year. See, you should be appreciative of

1251
00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:46,000
Speaker 1: what's going on here and if they don't go all

1252
00:56:46,040 --> 00:56:47,279
Speaker 1: the way, Okay.

1253
00:56:47,040 --> 00:56:49,560
Speaker 3: You always should look at a game and just say

1254
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:51,920
Speaker 3: you should never look at it and say there's no

1255
00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:53,520
Speaker 3: way we can win this game or there's no way

1256
00:56:53,560 --> 00:56:55,560
Speaker 3: we can lose this game. I mean, you're in the playoff.

1257
00:56:55,600 --> 00:56:58,120
Speaker 3: R I mean, this is not like Tom Brady's heyday

1258
00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:00,840
Speaker 3: when you're having double buys against Tim Tebow. No, Like,

1259
00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:04,600
Speaker 3: you know, like Christian made the comment thirty eight to ten,

1260
00:57:04,680 --> 00:57:07,239
Speaker 3: and like, I'm not ruling that out. I think the

1261
00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:09,080
Speaker 3: Patriots could get on a roll and continue. I think

1262
00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:12,600
Speaker 3: they're playing really well. But he said, tell me why not? Well,

1263
00:57:12,600 --> 00:57:15,160
Speaker 3: why not? You've played one team this year that's as

1264
00:57:15,160 --> 00:57:18,400
Speaker 3: good as the Chargers. You beat them twenty three to twenty,

1265
00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:20,160
Speaker 3: and you lost to them thirty five to thirty one.

1266
00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:22,520
Speaker 3: You haven't played any other team that's anywhere near as

1267
00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:23,200
Speaker 3: good as this one.

1268
00:57:24,200 --> 00:57:25,919
Speaker 1: And I don't think that at the time.

1269
00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:27,760
Speaker 4: No, but Baltimore is closed.

1270
00:57:27,800 --> 00:57:31,960
Speaker 3: No now, Yeah, you could say that, but they're not

1271
00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:34,520
Speaker 3: even here, Like they didn't even win more games than

1272
00:57:34,520 --> 00:57:36,520
Speaker 3: they lost. Now, you could make an argument because of

1273
00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:38,280
Speaker 3: personnel and the injury, not right.

1274
00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:39,880
Speaker 4: Here because of a forty two yard field goal.

1275
00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:42,280
Speaker 3: No, okay, but they would be here and they would

1276
00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:44,480
Speaker 3: be out in a game like because they would be

1277
00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:47,240
Speaker 3: nine and eight instead of eight and nine. I don't

1278
00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:50,040
Speaker 3: think they're as good as the Chargers now heading into

1279
00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:52,480
Speaker 3: the season. Would I say that Ravens roster was better

1280
00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:54,760
Speaker 3: than the Chargers by a lot? Yes, answer would have

1281
00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:56,919
Speaker 3: been yes. But they didn't have that team all year.

1282
00:57:57,000 --> 00:57:59,040
Speaker 4: But the Ravens are healthier now than the Charger.

1283
00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:01,640
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter, not not Sunday night, they weren't. The

1284
00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:03,840
Speaker 3: whole secondary was out and that's when Aaron Rodgers turned

1285
00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:04,479
Speaker 3: into Aaron Rudge.

1286
00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:06,000
Speaker 4: Kyle Hamilton got hurt during that.

1287
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:08,320
Speaker 3: So did Nate Wiggins, and so did the Woozy, a

1288
00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:10,480
Speaker 3: guy who ended up falling down. He came back in

1289
00:58:10,520 --> 00:58:12,480
Speaker 3: the game and fell down on the game winning touchdown.

1290
00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:16,200
Speaker 1: Woozy, it was a little loozy. Oh go ahead.

1291
00:58:16,200 --> 00:58:17,760
Speaker 6: I was just gonna say, Fred, should we should we

Speaker 6: were discussing it last night. Nothing against we love you know,

1333
01:00:04,600 --> 01:00:07,760
Speaker 6: we love some saga hibachi up here, but that barbecue

1334
01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:08,880
Speaker 6: has been a.

1335
01:00:08,840 --> 01:00:13,640
Speaker 1: Minute we went there. So yeah, bbn NH writes in first,

1336
01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:16,560
Speaker 1: Fred's all right to start. Every show makes my day.

1337
01:00:16,600 --> 01:00:19,600
Speaker 1: It never changes, and it's always great. Speaking of never changing.

1338
01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:23,360
Speaker 1: Regarding the debate amongst Fred, Paul, and Evan about how

1339
01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:25,680
Speaker 1: it will feel, why isn't deuced part of it. It's

1340
01:00:25,720 --> 01:00:28,400
Speaker 1: about how it will feel if the Patriots lose. Paul

1341
01:00:28,440 --> 01:00:31,600
Speaker 1: and Fred simply speak with the rationality of older folks

1342
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:34,760
Speaker 1: who don't care what anyone thinks or says about them.

1343
01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:37,560
Speaker 1: They know what passes their eye tests, and that's that.

1344
01:00:38,040 --> 01:00:41,080
Speaker 1: Evan is entangled in the web of the populace and

1345
01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:44,320
Speaker 1: doesn't want to see the opinions of silly people who

1346
01:00:44,360 --> 01:00:48,440
Speaker 1: negate his ball knowing anyway, Go Patriots, Let's see DMX

1347
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:51,520
Speaker 1: have another three hundred yard game and get another touchdown

1348
01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:55,560
Speaker 1: the Chisholm. I guess it's Drake may Drake may X.

1349
01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:59,720
Speaker 4: I agree with with him, though it's a it's my

1350
01:01:00,040 --> 01:01:03,400
Speaker 4: LEAs favorite part of sports fandom at the moment is

1351
01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:07,920
Speaker 4: the Twitter machine. It is the noise that comes from it.

1352
01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:10,400
Speaker 4: For some people, it's easier to not than others. Like

1353
01:01:10,480 --> 01:01:13,480
Speaker 4: I've I've started to get there at my old age

1354
01:01:13,480 --> 01:01:15,400
Speaker 4: of thirty three. I'm starting to get to the point

1355
01:01:15,440 --> 01:01:17,560
Speaker 4: where I don't give a crap of what's going on

1356
01:01:17,560 --> 01:01:21,680
Speaker 4: in my phone. But that's not the norm. I would

1357
01:01:21,680 --> 01:01:24,560
Speaker 4: say the norm sports fan right now is you know,

1358
01:01:24,800 --> 01:01:28,360
Speaker 4: chirping other fan bases and whatever. Like it's just the

1359
01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:29,880
Speaker 4: NonStop cesspool.

1360
01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:33,640
Speaker 1: I like that email Yeah yeah, Tony and potton Uk

1361
01:01:34,480 --> 01:01:39,120
Speaker 1: on the seat, we told you you're a fraud. And

1362
01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:42,920
Speaker 1: those saying they don't want an easier schedule of that

1363
01:01:43,040 --> 01:01:44,520
Speaker 1: was given to that. I don't know what that means,

1364
01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:47,960
Speaker 1: but as you've all said, we've had this schedule because

1365
01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:51,240
Speaker 1: we have been more than useless the previous two seasons.

1366
01:01:51,520 --> 01:01:53,720
Speaker 1: The NFL's creates the schedules in this way to create

1367
01:01:53,760 --> 01:01:56,360
Speaker 1: interest in even the playing field. In that way, it's

1368
01:01:56,360 --> 01:01:58,760
Speaker 1: been a success, and the Patriots were able to recruit

1369
01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:02,320
Speaker 1: well and take advantage of that schedule. However, without the

1370
01:02:02,320 --> 01:02:05,000
Speaker 1: great work from the recruitment and coaching staff, we would

1371
01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:07,480
Speaker 1: never have been in a position to take advantage of

1372
01:02:07,560 --> 01:02:10,320
Speaker 1: the schedule. I'm with Fred and Paul, but I'm also

1373
01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:14,120
Speaker 1: a similar age. Just turn that social crap off if

1374
01:02:14,120 --> 01:02:15,560
Speaker 1: we lose and forget about it.

1375
01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:19,800
Speaker 3: Well, and I would say, if it really bothers you, yeah,

1376
01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:21,960
Speaker 3: Like I know, I'm saying.

1377
01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:24,720
Speaker 4: You're trying to explain the mentality of the people. That

1378
01:02:24,800 --> 01:02:27,680
Speaker 4: Fred brought up is that this is the way that

1379
01:02:28,240 --> 01:02:31,040
Speaker 4: this is the climate now, is that we have to

1380
01:02:31,120 --> 01:02:34,160
Speaker 4: listen to Cam Newton on TV and then you have

1381
01:02:34,200 --> 01:02:36,240
Speaker 4: to listen to the people on your phone and all

1382
01:02:36,280 --> 01:02:38,240
Speaker 4: these people are just yelling at you telling you how

1383
01:02:38,280 --> 01:02:39,320
Speaker 4: easy the schedule is.

1384
01:02:39,400 --> 01:02:41,560
Speaker 3: I guess I picked in that, but I would never

1385
01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:44,280
Speaker 3: look at Cam Newton and take that seriously for a second.

1386
01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:46,040
Speaker 4: No one's taking it seriously.

1387
01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:49,000
Speaker 3: But you know, I mean I would look at, you know,

1388
01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:51,920
Speaker 3: the the haters that are going to throw the schedule,

1389
01:02:51,920 --> 01:02:54,160
Speaker 3: and I'd be like, yeah, yeah, well, you know, I

1390
01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:56,200
Speaker 3: don't think that they played a very good schedule either,

1391
01:02:56,280 --> 01:02:59,280
Speaker 3: so I can sort of agree with that. Now, again,

1392
01:03:00,640 --> 01:03:02,400
Speaker 3: those guys are going to just claim you wouldn't have

1393
01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:04,520
Speaker 3: been in the playoffs in the first place even if

1394
01:03:04,560 --> 01:03:06,720
Speaker 3: they win. So you can't beat those guys. I don't know,

1395
01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:09,960
Speaker 3: because those are just loud mouths. It's just because a

1396
01:03:09,960 --> 01:03:12,840
Speaker 3: lot of teams that have really really bad schedules have won.

1397
01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:15,400
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it won't be it won't be nearly as

1398
01:03:15,440 --> 01:03:16,040
Speaker 4: loud in those.

1399
01:03:15,920 --> 01:03:16,439
Speaker 7: Oh it won't.

1400
01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:17,640
Speaker 3: No, it won't be as loud.

1401
01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:19,680
Speaker 6: I've seen a couple of historical things of like a

1402
01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:22,080
Speaker 6: lot of Super Bowl champions, Like I mean, I think the.

1403
01:03:22,160 --> 01:03:24,840
Speaker 3: Rams they benefit from very bad like the benefit from

1404
01:03:24,920 --> 01:03:27,200
Speaker 3: very bad kind part of the formula, And I mean

1405
01:03:27,560 --> 01:03:29,640
Speaker 3: a light's getting shown on it this week.

1406
01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:32,240
Speaker 6: But I think it's a bigger question of do you

1407
01:03:32,240 --> 01:03:34,760
Speaker 6: think it serves the team better to yeah, maybe they

1408
01:03:34,800 --> 01:03:37,840
Speaker 6: don't play the iron during the regular season, and they

1409
01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:40,000
Speaker 6: feast and they get confident, and they beat up on

1410
01:03:40,040 --> 01:03:42,400
Speaker 6: some teams. But you know, a team that maybe has

1411
01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:44,320
Speaker 6: had ups and downs and battles and had to fight

1412
01:03:44,360 --> 01:03:46,480
Speaker 6: through some injuries and they sneak into the playoffs, but

1413
01:03:46,880 --> 01:03:48,000
Speaker 6: they've been tested a little bit.

1414
01:03:48,080 --> 01:03:48,280
Speaker 1: Maybe.

1415
01:03:48,320 --> 01:03:50,240
Speaker 6: And I'm not saying, you know, this will be another

1416
01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:52,360
Speaker 6: example of how true or not that is.

1417
01:03:52,480 --> 01:03:54,439
Speaker 3: I think there's two sides of that, And I would

1418
01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:57,720
Speaker 3: say it's inarguable that the first part worked for the Patriots,

1419
01:03:57,920 --> 01:04:00,240
Speaker 3: right they got they had a little soft spot, you know,

1420
01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:02,520
Speaker 3: and they had some they got some confidence underneath him,

1421
01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:05,160
Speaker 3: and then they went to Buffalo and won. Yeah, and

1422
01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:07,280
Speaker 3: it was like they took off there.

1423
01:04:08,600 --> 01:04:09,960
Speaker 1: There goes the greatest there was.

1424
01:04:10,040 --> 01:04:11,880
Speaker 3: You need to brush up on your third and medium.

1425
01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:13,320
Speaker 3: So Evan stays for the whole show.

1426
01:04:13,360 --> 01:04:16,760
Speaker 1: That's too bad, because Pauli in La says Evan FM all,

1427
01:04:17,320 --> 01:04:19,200
Speaker 1: no one can take away the fun of the season.

1428
01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:22,080
Speaker 1: Losing is as important as winning and how you handle it.

1429
01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:24,560
Speaker 1: Focus on the positive and shut out the noise.

1430
01:04:24,640 --> 01:04:28,800
Speaker 3: That's kind of how I am, Like, I don't it

1431
01:04:28,840 --> 01:04:31,800
Speaker 3: doesn't really it bothers me that my team lost it

1432
01:04:31,840 --> 01:04:34,440
Speaker 3: doesn't bother me because what other people say about it.

1433
01:04:34,480 --> 01:04:35,440
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it doesn't.

1434
01:04:35,480 --> 01:04:37,400
Speaker 1: Know, I really affect. I understand what Evan is.

1435
01:04:37,400 --> 01:04:39,520
Speaker 6: But I'm with you guys in that I've kind of

1436
01:04:39,600 --> 01:04:42,880
Speaker 6: slowly extracted myself from needing to you know, you want

1437
01:04:42,880 --> 01:04:44,880
Speaker 6: to hear what I think about the Patriots. I talk

1438
01:04:44,920 --> 01:04:46,920
Speaker 6: about six hours a week here, and I talk about

1439
01:04:46,920 --> 01:04:48,640
Speaker 6: it whatever four hours on the weekend.

1440
01:04:48,680 --> 01:04:50,200
Speaker 1: Like you know this is in some weeks.

1441
01:04:50,200 --> 01:04:53,400
Speaker 3: You have more TV shows to talk about to disappointed

1442
01:04:53,440 --> 01:04:55,240
Speaker 3: this week, so you have a little less Yeah, well,

1443
01:04:55,480 --> 01:04:56,960
Speaker 3: can't give your meeting with Wherry.

1444
01:04:57,160 --> 01:05:02,120
Speaker 1: I know why the Jason clarifies that DMX means Drake

1445
01:05:02,200 --> 01:05:05,680
Speaker 1: may ten. Oh okay, we got a new one DMX,

1446
01:05:07,120 --> 01:05:09,160
Speaker 1: so like TV twelve, I think y'all going to make

1447
01:05:09,160 --> 01:05:10,280
Speaker 1: me lose my mind one.

1448
01:05:10,640 --> 01:05:15,240
Speaker 3: Speaking of DMX, I saw something that made me chuckle

1449
01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:19,000
Speaker 3: a little bit today. Jamie Erdall, who hosts the NFL

1450
01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:21,480
Speaker 3: what was it called, Get.

1451
01:05:21,320 --> 01:05:23,920
Speaker 1: Up, Wake Up, Good morning, Hell Up, Good.

1452
01:05:23,720 --> 01:05:28,040
Speaker 3: Morning football, Good morning football, Get the hell up. She

1453
01:05:28,400 --> 01:05:30,520
Speaker 3: they were all asked to list their teams, the most

1454
01:05:30,600 --> 01:05:32,760
Speaker 3: consistent team and she picked the page of poss right

1455
01:05:32,760 --> 01:05:34,400
Speaker 3: but the and they write them out on the white

1456
01:05:34,440 --> 01:05:38,760
Speaker 3: board and they show them. She wrote the new New England.

1457
01:05:38,840 --> 01:05:43,440
Speaker 1: Patriots Patriots, you know, like Drake Drake, Yeah, yeah, good,

1458
01:05:43,640 --> 01:05:44,040
Speaker 1: I love it.

1459
01:05:44,800 --> 01:05:48,800
Speaker 3: Kevin, Yeah, I think it was New New England Patriots Patriots.

1460
01:05:48,800 --> 01:05:52,000
Speaker 1: I've heard this one too, and I don't understand, uh

1461
01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:55,040
Speaker 1: scared the charges may have the Patriots number based on

1462
01:05:55,120 --> 01:05:58,640
Speaker 1: how bad they beat the Patriots last time they played. Yeah,

1463
01:05:58,680 --> 01:06:02,040
Speaker 1: that's I've heard your shows. I've heard this on your

1464
01:06:02,040 --> 01:06:03,880
Speaker 1: show that I.

1465
01:06:03,840 --> 01:06:06,600
Speaker 3: Have not heard that on show. You know, I don't

1466
01:06:06,600 --> 01:06:09,200
Speaker 3: think it has any relevance because this does. These are

1467
01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:11,040
Speaker 3: not the same player if they were the same team,

1468
01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:13,000
Speaker 3: like I would say, okay.

1469
01:06:12,840 --> 01:06:15,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, sure, I generally agree. I will just say though,

1470
01:06:15,360 --> 01:06:18,640
Speaker 6: I don't dismiss the fact of Justin Herbert came into

1471
01:06:18,640 --> 01:06:21,760
Speaker 6: the stadium and played well and should have familiarity with

1472
01:06:21,840 --> 01:06:24,080
Speaker 6: how it is and confidence, and I agree it definitely

1473
01:06:24,120 --> 01:06:26,800
Speaker 6: doesn't matter. But I do think that that doesn't mean

1474
01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:28,360
Speaker 6: nothing to me. It means a little bit.

1475
01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:29,920
Speaker 1: It means nothing to all. Right, We're going to take

1476
01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:33,200
Speaker 1: a break now, and probably during the break will uh

1477
01:06:34,520 --> 01:06:37,800
Speaker 1: you know, run into Rabel. So we'll either be back

1478

Speaker 8: It is a division opponent, so you know, come in

1520
01:09:00,240 --> 01:09:03,400
Speaker 8: here getting fourteen wins on the season. That was you know,

1521
01:09:03,400 --> 01:09:05,400
Speaker 8: our big thing was just finishing what we started. So

1522
01:09:05,680 --> 01:09:09,040
Speaker 8: he was able to do that. You know we're going

1525
01:09:15,960 --> 01:09:18,360
Speaker 15: Now you know game wraps up fourteen wins. You're on

1526
01:09:18,400 --> 01:09:20,120
Speaker 15: the precipice of playing in your first playoff game. I

1527
01:09:20,120 --> 01:09:21,560
Speaker 15: know this one just standard. You've got a week to go,

1528
01:09:21,680 --> 01:09:24,439
Speaker 15: But what's the mindset heading into your first shot at

1529
01:09:24,439 --> 01:09:25,080
Speaker 15: the postseason.

1530
01:09:25,680 --> 01:09:30,120
Speaker 8: I'm excited, very excited to be able to play in January.

1531
01:09:31,560 --> 01:09:34,120
Speaker 8: I mean, it's it's a it's a as a kid,

1532
01:09:34,160 --> 01:09:36,200
Speaker 8: it's a dream come true. Really, I mean just being

1533
01:09:36,240 --> 01:09:40,720
Speaker 8: able to play in the playoffs. And we came in

1534
01:09:40,760 --> 01:09:42,320
Speaker 8: and Brays came in and said, you know, win the

1535
01:09:42,360 --> 01:09:46,920
Speaker 8: division and host home playoff games, so we are able

1536
01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:47,320
Speaker 8: to do that.

1537
01:09:47,400 --> 01:09:56,000
Speaker 16: So, like I said, my understanding is the Cardinals ask

1538
01:09:56,080 --> 01:10:00,400
Speaker 16: permission to talk to Thomas Brown. I was wondering what

1539
01:10:00,520 --> 01:10:02,280
Speaker 16: he's provided, what he's done for you.

1540
01:10:02,640 --> 01:10:04,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll focus you know, I mean I want the

1541
01:10:04,160 --> 01:10:06,760
Speaker 2: best for every single coach that's here. I do, and

1542
01:10:06,880 --> 01:10:10,040
Speaker 2: we'll focus on that. Whenever they can talk to our coaches,

1543
01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:12,680
Speaker 2: we'll approach that. I'm excited for every one of them

1544
01:10:12,680 --> 01:10:15,519
Speaker 2: that could get an opportunity. I'll help them however I can.

1545
01:10:16,320 --> 01:10:19,040
Speaker 2: But our focus is obviously on the on the Chargers

1546
01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:22,400
Speaker 2: this week and a and a huge task against a

1547
01:10:22,400 --> 01:10:23,519
Speaker 2: a really good football team.

1548
01:10:23,600 --> 01:10:25,880
Speaker 17: Other than the obvious physical tools, what does drum and

1549
01:10:25,960 --> 01:10:26,960
Speaker 17: James bring to the table.

1550
01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:30,519
Speaker 2: The beats so good? Uh, you know, I think he's

1551
01:10:30,600 --> 01:10:33,639
Speaker 2: got really good instincts. You know, when he blitzes whether

1552
01:10:33,720 --> 01:10:36,840
Speaker 2: to go inside or go outside, I think he uh,

1553
01:10:37,080 --> 01:10:40,120
Speaker 2: you know, there's a passion, there's a there's a love

1554
01:10:40,160 --> 01:10:42,920
Speaker 2: for football. There there's a play demeanor. He's a very

1555
01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:46,479
Speaker 2: good tackler. You know, he can cover, he matches up,

1556
01:10:46,520 --> 01:10:51,040
Speaker 2: he has versatility to play down or you know, close

1557
01:10:51,080 --> 01:10:53,519
Speaker 2: to the line of scrimmage. He can play you know,

1558
01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:57,960
Speaker 2: in the deeper part of the field. And again I

1559
01:10:58,080 --> 01:11:03,360
Speaker 2: just having the luxury, uh to coach a Pro Bowl.

1560
01:11:04,120 --> 01:11:07,400
Speaker 2: He was on that team and just an unbelievable person.

1561
01:11:08,120 --> 01:11:11,280
Speaker 2: I remember his mom was getting married and he's like coaching.

1562
01:11:11,320 --> 01:11:13,960
Speaker 2: He like he like communicated, like reached out like hey,

1563
01:11:13,960 --> 01:11:16,400
Speaker 2: I'm gonna miss it down. I was like, buddy, this

1564
01:11:16,439 --> 01:11:19,559
Speaker 2: is I don't think there's any rules to the Pro Bowl.

1565
01:11:19,920 --> 01:11:22,519
Speaker 2: And so just remembering that about him, I always have

1566
01:11:22,560 --> 01:11:24,320
Speaker 2: a lot of respect for him. Obviously the player is,

1567
01:11:24,360 --> 01:11:24,920
Speaker 2: but the person.

1568
01:11:25,479 --> 01:11:29,720
Speaker 18: I said, Drake has a lot of answers to defensive

1569
01:11:29,720 --> 01:11:32,679
Speaker 18: tests this year. What is it about you and Josh

1570
01:11:32,800 --> 01:11:35,920
Speaker 18: the whole staff being sort of proactive about making sure

1571
01:11:36,520 --> 01:11:38,200
Speaker 18: he's ready when he sees something.

1572
01:11:38,240 --> 01:11:40,400
Speaker 2: Maybe that there's a lot of growth there. And I

1573
01:11:40,439 --> 01:11:43,040
Speaker 2: think a lot of growth as we've worked from the

1574
01:11:43,080 --> 01:11:47,400
Speaker 2: off season through training camp and joint practices versus the

1575
01:11:47,439 --> 01:11:50,439
Speaker 2: Commanders and the Vikings and against our defense, and then

1576
01:11:50,479 --> 01:11:54,439
Speaker 2: working through the regular season, you know, just trying to

1577
01:11:54,439 --> 01:11:57,160
Speaker 2: give him the best chance and to put us in

1578
01:11:57,160 --> 01:12:01,920
Speaker 2: the right situation. And I think he's learned from some

1579
01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:05,640
Speaker 2: of those instances where maybe he could have gone to

1580
01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:08,080
Speaker 2: something else, and I think he's learned from that. So

1581
01:12:08,160 --> 01:12:10,920
Speaker 2: that's been really good to see. And that's you know,

1582
01:12:11,040 --> 01:12:13,040
Speaker 2: credit to Josh obviously.

1583
01:12:13,080 --> 01:12:16,840
Speaker 1: In Ashton Chargers playing style, you talked a.

1584
01:12:16,840 --> 01:12:19,080
Speaker 4: Lot about your own with you kind of learned.

1585
01:12:18,880 --> 01:12:23,240
Speaker 2: About, you know, what they do with big, physical football team.

1586
01:12:23,240 --> 01:12:28,240
Speaker 2: They don't really beat themselves. They statistically excellent in every

1587
01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:32,040
Speaker 2: category across the front. Defensively, they don't just stop the

1588
01:12:32,120 --> 01:12:34,160
Speaker 2: run well or they don't give up, you know, but

1589
01:12:34,200 --> 01:12:37,520
Speaker 2: they're good on third down, or good on the short yardage,

1590
01:12:38,080 --> 01:12:42,600
Speaker 2: excellent in the red zone, and I think it's uh,

1591
01:12:43,720 --> 01:12:46,439
Speaker 2: you look at a play that broke against the Texans

1592
01:12:46,439 --> 01:12:48,800
Speaker 2: of was the screen to the left, and you know,

1593
01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:51,680
Speaker 2: every single guy on defense is chasing the ball and

1594
01:12:51,760 --> 01:12:55,479
Speaker 2: Khalil Mack wins the race and hammers the football out

1595
01:12:55,479 --> 01:12:58,120
Speaker 2: and causes the fumble. So those those are the things

1596
01:12:58,120 --> 01:13:02,439
Speaker 2: that I can appreciate, you know, with with a defense

1597
01:13:02,560 --> 01:13:05,320
Speaker 2: or for a team. And you know, this is certainly

1598
01:13:05,320 --> 01:13:09,400
Speaker 2: a team that's gonna you know, play that way Moses

1599
01:13:09,479 --> 01:13:12,960
Speaker 2: meant to your team. And in the slaughter host great

1600
01:13:13,080 --> 01:13:16,519
Speaker 2: veteran presence, I think that he's played well. It hasn't

1601
01:13:16,600 --> 01:13:18,960
Speaker 2: just been a presence. I mean he's protected the quarterback

1602
01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:22,479
Speaker 2: and uh it's been out there and you know, we

1603
01:13:22,520 --> 01:13:25,960
Speaker 2: got some guys sick today Morgan will be in one

1604
01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:28,240
Speaker 2: of the that group of guys that are that are sick,

1605
01:13:29,920 --> 01:13:34,840
Speaker 2: so he won't be getting the physical reps. But just

1606
01:13:35,040 --> 01:13:38,559
Speaker 2: I think, uh, everything that we've we've wanted him to

1607
01:13:38,560 --> 01:13:41,040
Speaker 2: be and needed him to be as far as changing

1608
01:13:41,080 --> 01:13:45,080
Speaker 2: over some personnel and and adding him. So that's been

1609
01:13:45,479 --> 01:13:47,920
Speaker 2: it's been fun to watch that group. Joel like who

1610
01:13:47,920 --> 01:13:54,759
Speaker 2: else is sick? Brad Berry, Anthony Jennings, Verderian Lowe.

1611
01:13:56,200 --> 01:13:59,800
Speaker 17: Does you rely on team identity as you get into

1612
01:14:00,520 --> 01:14:03,000
Speaker 17: what you've been able to build since really day one year?

1613
01:14:05,080 --> 01:14:08,240
Speaker 2: Well, we've said this numerous times. You can't just play

1614
01:14:08,280 --> 01:14:11,760
Speaker 2: hard and hope to win, you know, run like this

1615
01:14:11,840 --> 01:14:13,560
Speaker 2: with the football and hope that you're going to be

1616
01:14:13,600 --> 01:14:16,120
Speaker 2: able to break tackles or gain a bunch of yards.

1617
01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:20,320
Speaker 2: So you need production, you need execution. So I think

1618
01:14:20,360 --> 01:14:25,120
Speaker 2: that it helps you. I mean, it's it's critical and

1619
01:14:25,200 --> 01:14:27,800
Speaker 2: being able to keep our composure with whatever happens in

1620
01:14:27,840 --> 01:14:32,880
Speaker 2: the football game, making sure that we execute in critical situations,

1621
01:14:34,920 --> 01:14:37,280
Speaker 2: you know. So again I think that the identity is important,

1622
01:14:37,280 --> 01:14:41,760
Speaker 2: but execution and guys making plays and us you know,

1623
01:14:42,360 --> 01:14:46,519
Speaker 2: all sticking together, you know, is going to mean the most.

1624
01:14:48,320 --> 01:14:51,680
Speaker 2: Chargers are second in the league in time of possession.

1625
01:14:52,240 --> 01:14:54,120
Speaker 1: What do they do well that allows them to put

1626
01:14:54,160 --> 01:14:55,000
Speaker 1: onto the ball and in a.

1627
01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:58,160
Speaker 2: Playoff situation, how dangerous is a team that holds onto

1628
01:14:58,200 --> 01:14:58,840
Speaker 2: the ball for.

1629
01:14:58,760 --> 01:14:59,320
Speaker 9: A long time?

1630
01:15:00,640 --> 01:15:02,599
Speaker 2: Well, they certainly you know, either a one or two

1631
01:15:02,800 --> 01:15:08,840
Speaker 2: based on whatever you look at. They they do a

1632
01:15:08,920 --> 01:15:11,080
Speaker 2: nice shot. They don't mind it being in third and three,

1633
01:15:11,200 --> 01:15:15,320
Speaker 2: and you know, run it to stay on track. And

1634
01:15:16,840 --> 01:15:19,920
Speaker 2: because they're really good on third down quarterback that can

1635
01:15:20,680 --> 01:15:22,960
Speaker 2: that can scramble for a first down, they can run it,

1636
01:15:23,240 --> 01:15:26,639
Speaker 2: and they can multiple different route concepts and those down

1637
01:15:26,680 --> 01:15:33,840
Speaker 2: in distances, and so just probably the more that they

1638
01:15:33,880 --> 01:15:36,600
Speaker 2: possess it, obviously the less that we get it. But

1639
01:15:36,680 --> 01:15:38,760
Speaker 2: I also think it's a mentality where they're trying to

1640
01:15:38,760 --> 01:15:41,080
Speaker 2: wear you down and and win the game in the

1641
01:15:41,080 --> 01:15:44,479
Speaker 2: fourth quarter and put the five minute tea you know,

1642
01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:47,439
Speaker 2: I mean, put their five minute offense out there and

1643
01:15:47,439 --> 01:15:50,160
Speaker 2: and and run it, run it to win it. Like

1644
01:15:50,560 --> 01:15:53,320
Speaker 2: last time when we had a playoff game here, you

1645
01:15:53,320 --> 01:15:56,599
Speaker 2: were the visiting teams, Hyph coach, you describe this place

1646
01:15:56,600 --> 01:15:59,120
Speaker 2: I have as a fifer stead. I know it's been

1647
01:15:59,120 --> 01:16:00,880
Speaker 2: a couple of years, but what did that turn meeting

1648
01:16:00,920 --> 01:16:03,240
Speaker 2: to you back then and what does it take to

1649
01:16:03,400 --> 01:16:06,760
Speaker 2: leave you with that kind of reputation and your currency? Well,

1650
01:16:06,800 --> 01:16:08,439
Speaker 2: I mean it just got to be a tough place

1651
01:16:08,439 --> 01:16:10,280
Speaker 2: to play in January. If we're able to get there

1652
01:16:10,280 --> 01:16:13,200
Speaker 2: in January like we are, we have to create an

1653
01:16:13,320 --> 01:16:17,000
Speaker 2: environment that that makes it difficult to play. Whatever the

1654
01:16:17,040 --> 01:16:19,240
Speaker 2: record was back you know, when I was looking at

1655
01:16:19,280 --> 01:16:22,320
Speaker 2: the stats in twenty nineteen, twenty one and three or

1656
01:16:22,360 --> 01:16:24,639
Speaker 2: whatever it was in January. I'm going to be off

1657
01:16:24,680 --> 01:16:26,559
Speaker 2: by a couple of games because it's a few years ago,

1658
01:16:26,640 --> 01:16:31,559
Speaker 2: but that you know, we were talking about, you know

1659
01:16:31,840 --> 01:16:33,400
Speaker 2: what we would have to do to come in and win,

1660
01:16:33,439 --> 01:16:35,000
Speaker 2: and we need to create a hard environment. We need

1661
01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:38,439
Speaker 2: to play well and let our crowd feed off of

1662
01:16:38,479 --> 01:16:40,160
Speaker 2: us and let us feed off of them.

1663
01:16:41,600 --> 01:16:43,599
Speaker 9: Personally in peril.

1664
01:16:43,680 --> 01:16:45,960
Speaker 17: Latery he comes back this week dealing with injury. Do

1665
01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:47,479
Speaker 17: you have a sense of where you might be from

1666
01:16:47,479 --> 01:16:49,240
Speaker 17: a pass rur standpoint midweek or do you have to

1667
01:16:49,240 --> 01:16:51,680
Speaker 17: find out the first quarter kind of when the giguet.

1668
01:16:51,360 --> 01:16:53,559
Speaker 2: Is going on a past rush?

1669
01:16:53,760 --> 01:16:56,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, how much rush you might have with just your typical.

1670
01:16:56,560 --> 01:17:00,519
Speaker 2: Cour No, man, I don't think that's a something that

1671
01:17:00,600 --> 01:17:03,000
Speaker 2: you could tell in practice. I mean, you got to

1672
01:17:03,040 --> 01:17:04,680
Speaker 2: go out there and win and live action, and not

1673
01:17:04,720 --> 01:17:06,920
Speaker 2: only win, you have to be able to you know,

1674
01:17:07,400 --> 01:17:11,080
Speaker 2: get the guy on the ground. You know, Justin's just

1675
01:17:11,640 --> 01:17:16,200
Speaker 2: great play strength, toughness. You know, can avoid and scramble

1676
01:17:16,280 --> 01:17:18,960
Speaker 2: for a lot of yards and can stiff arm you

1677
01:17:19,120 --> 01:17:21,880
Speaker 2: and you know, so again, I think that'll have to

1678
01:17:21,920 --> 01:17:27,160
Speaker 2: be determined Sunday night from Walder Stevens, and he.

1679
01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:29,600
Speaker 16: Was named AFC Offensive Player in the League, which was

1680
01:17:29,640 --> 01:17:32,080
Speaker 16: actually the first time he's gotten his award his career.

1681
01:17:32,120 --> 01:17:34,120
Speaker 4: What was it like to see him get that recognition

1682
01:17:34,840 --> 01:17:35,720
Speaker 4: for his performance?

1683
01:17:37,400 --> 01:17:40,600
Speaker 2: Always excited for our players, and you know, sounded like

1684
01:17:40,600 --> 01:17:43,760
Speaker 2: a broken record, but I think he continued to do

1685
01:17:43,840 --> 01:17:45,720
Speaker 2: the things that we needed him to do to help

1686
01:17:45,800 --> 01:17:49,920
Speaker 2: us win, and in turn was rewarded for it with touchdowns,

1687
01:17:50,120 --> 01:17:54,920
Speaker 2: with rushing yards, with you know, big catch there, but

1688
01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:58,799
Speaker 2: also he protected a quarterback. So I'm excited and happy

1689
01:17:58,840 --> 01:18:03,479
Speaker 2: for him, recognized him, and then we moved on.

1690
01:18:03,720 --> 01:18:06,320
Speaker 4: Like it's the first game this season where it's wait

1691
01:18:06,439 --> 01:18:07,000
Speaker 4: or go home.

1692
01:18:07,439 --> 01:18:09,760
Speaker 3: He said, it's a heightened sense of urgency around here.

1693
01:18:11,360 --> 01:18:13,360
Speaker 2: You know. I mean, we need to embrace the preparation

1694
01:18:13,479 --> 01:18:15,840
Speaker 2: and I want them to continue to enjoy, you know,

1695
01:18:15,880 --> 01:18:20,400
Speaker 2: the execution and everything that goes on with us. I'm excited.

1696
01:18:20,439 --> 01:18:23,200
Speaker 2: I'm excited for these guys to prepare them, excited to

1697
01:18:23,200 --> 01:18:27,000
Speaker 2: coach them. So I mean, I hope they'll we're locked

1698
01:18:27,040 --> 01:18:31,559
Speaker 2: in every week and imagine we'll we'll get everything we

1699
01:18:31,600 --> 01:18:32,439
Speaker 2: can out of them.

1700
01:18:32,640 --> 01:18:35,880
Speaker 1: Like he's just kind of alluded to it to just

1701
01:18:35,920 --> 01:18:37,280
Speaker 1: to be in this position.

1702
01:18:37,080 --> 01:18:40,120
Speaker 3: Bringing playoff football back to Ploxborough.

1703
01:18:39,640 --> 01:18:42,880
Speaker 2: Here, I don't want. Yeah, I mean I'm I'm happy,

1704
01:18:42,880 --> 01:18:46,200
Speaker 2: I'm excited, but also we're not here just to you know,

1705
01:18:46,400 --> 01:18:48,640
Speaker 2: get here. You know, we we have to you know,

1706
01:18:48,800 --> 01:18:51,720
Speaker 2: be able to host games and compete for championships. So

1707
01:18:52,760 --> 01:18:55,599
Speaker 2: there's not going to be any consolation prize for anybody.

1708
01:18:56,200 --> 01:18:57,800
Speaker 2: You know, we understand what we have to do.

1709
01:18:58,400 --> 01:19:01,719
Speaker 1: Previous matchups with Great Roman, what have you noticed about

1710
01:19:01,760 --> 01:19:03,360
Speaker 1: how he operates?

1711
01:19:03,400 --> 01:19:05,160
Speaker 2: Does he kind of have a style that he appears

1712
01:19:05,240 --> 01:19:08,639
Speaker 2: to or receive Well, I mean, you know, Greg's gonna

1713
01:19:08,720 --> 01:19:11,040
Speaker 2: they're gonna be physical, and then they're gonna marry the

1714
01:19:11,120 --> 01:19:15,200
Speaker 2: play action pass and they off the run actions. They're

1715
01:19:15,200 --> 01:19:16,840
Speaker 2: gonna look at things that they have given you trouble

1716
01:19:16,840 --> 01:19:19,680
Speaker 2: in the past. They've got their core concepts, mixed personnel,

1717
01:19:20,280 --> 01:19:26,080
Speaker 2: use big people, Lamar Jackson, So it's probably a little

1718
01:19:26,120 --> 01:19:30,679
Speaker 2: different with with as much quarterback run. You know, they

1719
01:19:30,720 --> 01:19:33,800
Speaker 2: have it. You know, we'll have to be ready for it.

1720
01:19:33,880 --> 01:19:37,320
Speaker 2: I just don't know if it'll be as much as

1721
01:19:37,360 --> 01:19:39,519
Speaker 2: what he did with Lamar Jackson, but you know, there's

1722
01:19:39,560 --> 01:19:41,639
Speaker 2: a lot of carryover. There's also a lot of growth

1723
01:19:41,680 --> 01:19:46,800
Speaker 2: and what he's done with mixing personnel, you know, keeping

1724
01:19:46,840 --> 01:19:50,559
Speaker 2: your guessing, keeping you you know, moving guys around, motioning

1725
01:19:51,360 --> 01:19:53,160
Speaker 2: to get guys at the point of attack.

1726
01:19:54,520 --> 01:19:57,880
Speaker 19: This year about Drake as a leader, how have you

1727
01:19:57,920 --> 01:20:01,800
Speaker 19: seen him demand more from his teammates and would this

1728
01:20:01,960 --> 01:20:04,000
Speaker 19: be the kind of week where you'd expect him to

1729
01:20:04,160 --> 01:20:05,120
Speaker 19: lead in that fashion.

1730
01:20:05,720 --> 01:20:07,960
Speaker 2: I would hope that he would lead as our quarterback

1731
01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:11,960
Speaker 2: every single week. This is a next week, It's an

1732
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:16,160
Speaker 2: important week. I think just the command that he has

1733
01:20:16,200 --> 01:20:21,280
Speaker 2: in the huddle. You know, at practice, you see you know,

1734
01:20:21,360 --> 01:20:25,240
Speaker 2: communication with guys off on the side when you know

1735
01:20:25,320 --> 01:20:29,320
Speaker 2: maybe the defense is working. You know, I see something.

1736
01:20:29,439 --> 01:20:32,040
Speaker 2: I see things during the game where you know he's

1737
01:20:32,040 --> 01:20:35,720
Speaker 2: trying to get guys on the same page and you know,

1738
01:20:35,800 --> 01:20:39,000
Speaker 2: communicate to him and and that relationship there. So I

1739
01:20:39,000 --> 01:20:41,759
Speaker 2: think he's continuing to work at it. And again it's, uh,

1740
01:20:42,720 --> 01:20:44,719
Speaker 2: everybody's trying to become a little better leader.

1741
01:20:44,960 --> 01:20:47,439
Speaker 12: Obviously, you've got got a lot of successes here with

1742
01:20:47,479 --> 01:20:48,680
Speaker 12: a lot of head coaching.

1743
01:20:48,439 --> 01:20:49,519
Speaker 1: Movement around the league.

1744
01:20:49,600 --> 01:20:51,680
Speaker 3: If you look back and think of through year off

1745
01:20:51,720 --> 01:20:54,479
Speaker 3: from being a head coach as being beneficial.

1746
01:20:56,240 --> 01:20:58,200
Speaker 2: That was probably it was the only option I had,

1747
01:20:58,240 --> 01:21:00,559
Speaker 2: so I guess I didn't have a choice.

1748
01:21:01,760 --> 01:21:04,719
Speaker 17: Mike, you talk offensively about X plays coming from seventy

1749
01:21:04,720 --> 01:21:08,600
Speaker 17: percent of guys may go to play thirty percent scheme defensively.

1750
01:21:08,640 --> 01:21:10,760
Speaker 17: Does that whole true? Because I know obviously LA has

1751
01:21:11,080 --> 01:21:12,960
Speaker 17: been really really good at denying those X plays, and

1752
01:21:12,960 --> 01:21:15,280
Speaker 17: it seems a lot of it is structural. But where's

1753
01:21:15,320 --> 01:21:15,839
Speaker 17: that balance?

1754
01:21:19,200 --> 01:21:21,960
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I imagine that for this was league

1755
01:21:21,960 --> 01:21:24,280
Speaker 2: wide when I just did like a quick you know,

1756
01:21:24,320 --> 01:21:26,160
Speaker 2: when you look through each week, you know, I mean,

1757
01:21:26,240 --> 01:21:30,000
Speaker 2: some of those numbers may be off where but you know,

1758
01:21:30,080 --> 01:21:36,160
Speaker 2: I think sometimes schematically, I think way you tackle goes

1759
01:21:36,200 --> 01:21:37,800
Speaker 2: into that a lot, you know, I mean, the way

1760
01:21:37,840 --> 01:21:42,360
Speaker 2: you play the football down the field, you know, split

1761
01:21:42,400 --> 01:21:45,400
Speaker 2: safety versus post safety. I think there's some things going through.

1762
01:21:45,960 --> 01:21:48,759
Speaker 2: I just was saying that there. It's not always gonna

1763
01:21:48,800 --> 01:21:51,479
Speaker 2: just be, you know, the best player making a play.

1764
01:21:51,520 --> 01:21:54,600
Speaker 2: Sometimes it's gonna get schemed open. Sometimes we're gonna have

1765
01:21:54,640 --> 01:21:56,040
Speaker 2: to go make a play and it's a one on

1766
01:21:56,040 --> 01:21:58,559
Speaker 2: one matchup, and and that's kind of how those things

1767
01:21:58,560 --> 01:22:01,160
Speaker 2: are created. Running backs, you know, be like, that's a

1768
01:22:01,240 --> 01:22:05,680
Speaker 2: really cool run was untouched and everybody was blocked. Sometimes

1769
01:22:05,680 --> 01:22:07,880
Speaker 2: you got to make a guy miss and break a tackle.

1770
01:22:08,320 --> 01:22:09,639
Speaker 1: You mentioned Herbert.

1771
01:22:09,840 --> 01:22:12,120
Speaker 2: Don't take me too literal here, I apologize. I just

1772
01:22:12,160 --> 01:22:14,639
Speaker 2: try to say that it's a it's a combination.

1773
01:22:15,120 --> 01:22:17,080
Speaker 1: You mentioned justin Herbert a couple of times. Just with

1774
01:22:17,120 --> 01:22:20,680
Speaker 1: his physical skills. How how much of the challenges.

1775
01:22:20,360 --> 01:22:23,960
Speaker 2: He break control A lot? A lot. He's got toughness, uh,

1776
01:22:24,080 --> 01:22:30,519
Speaker 2: great arm, talent, great athletic ability. You know he's under duress,

1777
01:22:30,800 --> 01:22:33,080
Speaker 2: I mean, and it doesn't really affect him. You don't

1778
01:22:33,080 --> 01:22:35,920
Speaker 2: see him get frustrated. A lot of respect for him

1779
01:22:35,960 --> 01:22:39,280
Speaker 2: as a as a as a person man obviously as

1780
01:22:39,280 --> 01:22:41,519
Speaker 2: a player, and you know, he's lived up to everything

1781
01:22:41,560 --> 01:22:45,600
Speaker 2: that they thought he'd be as a franchise quarterback. And

1782
01:22:45,600 --> 01:22:49,400
Speaker 2: he's it's really just one of the best quarterbacks in

1783
01:22:49,439 --> 01:22:49,840
Speaker 2: the league.

1784
01:22:50,080 --> 01:22:52,559
Speaker 20: Seems like the packages where you have seem the six

1785
01:22:52,640 --> 01:22:54,760
Speaker 20: offensive line packages has been a very big reason for

1786
01:22:54,840 --> 01:22:57,760
Speaker 20: the wrong game success recently led to the decision to

1787
01:22:57,800 --> 01:23:00,280
Speaker 20: maybe lean on those looks more and also why hasn't

1788
01:23:00,280 --> 01:23:01,439
Speaker 20: been so successful for you guys.

1789
01:23:02,080 --> 01:23:04,080
Speaker 2: I don't think any time that we blocked the you

1790
01:23:04,120 --> 01:23:06,200
Speaker 2: know guys at the line of scrimmage and we blocked

1791
01:23:06,200 --> 01:23:10,280
Speaker 2: the support player that we're able to run the football.

1792
01:23:10,320 --> 01:23:14,559
Speaker 2: So that's six linemen. If we need seven, I'll probably

1793
01:23:14,640 --> 01:23:17,080
Speaker 2: draw the line there. But you know, however, many guys

1794
01:23:17,080 --> 01:23:19,280
Speaker 2: we need to put out there that can that can

1795
01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:22,200
Speaker 2: move somebody off the line of scrimmage and block support.

1796
01:23:22,960 --> 01:23:24,080
Speaker 2: That's what I'm in favor of.

1797
01:23:25,200 --> 01:23:36,880
Speaker 1: Thanks guys, Thanks, and now great moments in history.

1798
01:23:37,240 --> 01:23:39,639
Speaker 21: Andrew used to go to the same gym as Andy

1799
01:23:39,680 --> 01:23:42,639
Speaker 21: Hart right on run over here, so we'd see him

1800
01:23:42,640 --> 01:23:45,400
Speaker 21: every morning before work. So he said, one day at

1801
01:23:45,439 --> 01:23:47,799
Speaker 21: the gym, there's this guy and there was a boxing

1802
01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:50,760
Speaker 21: one of those big boxing bags and the guy was

1803
01:23:50,800 --> 01:23:53,679
Speaker 21: like hitting it really hard and grutting and whatever and

1804
01:23:53,760 --> 01:23:56,240
Speaker 21: like making a big scene. And here was like six

1805
01:23:56,280 --> 01:23:58,280
Speaker 21: point thirty in the morning, Like what is this guy doing?

1806
01:23:58,640 --> 01:24:00,000
Speaker 1: So he was about to go to Andy.

1807
01:24:00,040 --> 01:24:02,680
Speaker 21: He'd be like, check out this guy. And all of

1808
01:24:02,720 --> 01:24:05,320
Speaker 21: a sudden and as soon as the guy was done,

1809
01:24:05,400 --> 01:24:08,840
Speaker 21: Andy went over and he started doing the same thing

1810
01:24:09,520 --> 01:24:13,200
Speaker 21: to the bag and Andrew. Andrew was like, he was like,

1811
01:24:13,240 --> 01:24:15,400
Speaker 21: I was literally like seconds away from being a hate

1812
01:24:15,439 --> 01:24:16,280
Speaker 21: check out this guy.

1813
01:24:16,360 --> 01:24:18,679
Speaker 1: So that's part of Andy's routine that he never really

1814
01:24:18,720 --> 01:24:20,800
Speaker 1: told us about. The heavy bag. We didn't know that

1815
01:24:20,800 --> 01:24:23,120
Speaker 1: that was something he uses the heavy.

1816
01:24:22,840 --> 01:24:24,799
Speaker 21: Bag, and Andrew was about to make fun of the other.

1817
01:24:24,640 --> 01:24:26,559
Speaker 1: Guys, So they must have to stand really close with

1818
01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:34,519
Speaker 1: those short arms. Yeah, that's another great moment from all

1819
01:24:34,600 --> 01:24:37,760
Speaker 1: right back here and Patriots Sunfiltered eight five five past

1820
01:24:37,800 --> 01:24:40,639
Speaker 1: five hundred is the hotline podcast at Patriots dot com.

1821
01:24:40,680 --> 01:24:45,439
Speaker 1: Is the email addresses Paul and I Evan left for Vrabel.

1822
01:24:45,600 --> 01:24:47,680
Speaker 1: And then Duce got a text that there's a lot

1823
01:24:47,680 --> 01:24:49,160
Speaker 1: of people in the locker room. So he had a

1824
01:24:49,240 --> 01:24:51,599
Speaker 1: run to be part of that, right like he took off.

1825
01:24:51,760 --> 01:24:54,240
Speaker 1: I gotta go here. It's crazy in the locker room

1826
01:24:54,520 --> 01:24:58,599
Speaker 1: on Ion Evan, and you know, Duce has to be,

1827
01:24:58,840 --> 01:25:00,720
Speaker 1: you know, in the mix. This is like get a

1828
01:25:00,800 --> 01:25:03,080
Speaker 1: vibe chance. This is like, you know, for him, it's

1829
01:25:03,160 --> 01:25:06,800
Speaker 1: like the pre party at the Academy Awards. He's got

1830
01:25:06,840 --> 01:25:10,040
Speaker 1: to be in there, you know, hobnobbing with everybody.

1831
01:25:11,040 --> 01:25:13,080
Speaker 3: A little you were a little dismissive friend, a little

1832
01:25:13,080 --> 01:25:17,160
Speaker 3: bit anything from Rabel stick out to you. He has

1833
01:25:17,200 --> 01:25:19,200
Speaker 3: a lot of respect for the Chargers and in the

1834
01:25:19,200 --> 01:25:21,439
Speaker 3: way they play. I felt like that when I listened

1835
01:25:21,479 --> 01:25:22,280
Speaker 3: to him on Monday.

1836
01:25:22,600 --> 01:25:24,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean other than like you said while we

1837
01:25:24,760 --> 01:25:27,080
Speaker 1: were watching, maybe he's a little upset that no one

1838
01:25:27,120 --> 01:25:27,960
Speaker 1: offered him a job.

1839
01:25:27,880 --> 01:25:30,519
Speaker 3: Last Yeah, yeah, he asked me. Was asked a question

1840
01:25:30,560 --> 01:25:33,000
Speaker 3: sort of later in the press conference, did he feel

1841
01:25:33,000 --> 01:25:34,880
Speaker 3: like the year away was beneficial at all?

1842
01:25:34,920 --> 01:25:37,080
Speaker 1: And he's like, well, you know, it wasn't really my choice.

1843
01:25:37,360 --> 01:25:38,720
Speaker 1: I didn't have much of a choice or something.

1844
01:25:38,760 --> 01:25:40,640
Speaker 3: I was always said. So I kind of got the

1845
01:25:40,640 --> 01:25:43,200
Speaker 3: impression he's still a little angry that he didn't get

1846
01:25:43,200 --> 01:25:44,120
Speaker 3: an offer last year.

1847
01:25:45,400 --> 01:25:45,599
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1848
01:25:45,600 --> 01:25:48,280
Speaker 1: I didn't think it was uh, you know.

1849
01:25:49,160 --> 01:25:51,479
Speaker 3: No, I thought he was pretty complimentary of the Chargers.

1850
01:25:51,680 --> 01:25:55,040
Speaker 3: I thought I think he I didn't get the impression

1851
01:25:55,080 --> 01:26:00,280
Speaker 3: that he was necessarily saying things that you were like

1852
01:26:00,320 --> 01:26:02,800
Speaker 3: when Belichick would talk about the Cleveland Browns and say that,

1853
01:26:02,840 --> 01:26:04,519
Speaker 3: you know, this is an explosive team that can score

1854
01:26:04,560 --> 01:26:06,479
Speaker 3: any from anywhere on the field, and you look and

1855
01:26:06,479 --> 01:26:09,320
Speaker 3: they're like thirty second in scoring. You know, I didn't

1856
01:26:09,320 --> 01:26:12,040
Speaker 3: get any of those. Yeah, the things that he talked about, I.

1857
01:26:12,400 --> 01:26:14,560
Speaker 1: Really think, and he talks about the punter.

1858
01:26:14,560 --> 01:26:16,680
Speaker 3: Looked, Yeah, I've looked up some of these stats that

1859
01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:19,320
Speaker 3: Mike has talked about on Monday and today, and I

1860
01:26:19,360 --> 01:26:22,160
Speaker 3: already was aware of what the Chargers have done well

1861
01:26:22,160 --> 01:26:24,040
Speaker 3: this year, and those are the things that stick out,

1862
01:26:24,320 --> 01:26:26,320
Speaker 3: I mean, top five and a lot of different things.

1863
01:26:27,040 --> 01:26:30,000
Speaker 1: The other thing that you know, again, the differences between

1864
01:26:30,080 --> 01:26:33,840
Speaker 1: Rabel and Bill Belichick. Of course there are many. But

1865
01:26:34,160 --> 01:26:38,000
Speaker 1: the first question was about Thomas Brown getting an interview

1866
01:26:38,080 --> 01:26:40,800
Speaker 1: with Arizona and if that was posed to Bill, Bill

1867
01:26:40,840 --> 01:26:44,439
Speaker 1: would be like, we're focused on this game, and Rabel says, no,

1868
01:26:44,560 --> 01:26:48,599
Speaker 1: We're always cooperate what we want our people to get

1869
01:26:48,640 --> 01:26:51,400
Speaker 1: these opportunities, and we're always helpful, you know, so.

1870
01:26:51,479 --> 01:26:55,240
Speaker 3: Like it'll be interesting to see not just head coaches,

1871
01:26:55,640 --> 01:26:59,400
Speaker 3: but if people are looking at some members of the

1872
01:26:59,439 --> 01:27:03,559
Speaker 3: Patriots staff in general because they've had such a great year.

1873
01:27:03,840 --> 01:27:04,080
Speaker 2: Yep.

1874
01:27:05,080 --> 01:27:08,479
Speaker 3: They obviously have an interesting situation on defense with Terrell

1875
01:27:08,520 --> 01:27:13,920
Speaker 3: Williams dealing with you know, his health problems, a guy

1876
01:27:14,000 --> 01:27:16,479
Speaker 3: like Zach Krer, it would be you know, maybe on

1877
01:27:16,479 --> 01:27:19,160
Speaker 3: someone's radar for a defensive coordinator. You know, I don't

1878
01:27:19,200 --> 01:27:22,720
Speaker 3: know necessarily if that would be you know, something that

1879
01:27:22,760 --> 01:27:25,240
Speaker 3: he'd be you know, Core would be interested, they would

1880
01:27:25,240 --> 01:27:27,519
Speaker 3: get permission, all that kind of stuff. But these are

1881
01:27:27,560 --> 01:27:29,280
Speaker 3: the kind of things that happen to teams when when

1882
01:27:29,280 --> 01:27:32,000
Speaker 3: they're good playoff teams and the kind of listen.

1883
01:27:31,840 --> 01:27:33,720
Speaker 1: You know, you'd be like, why would they want to leave?

1884
01:27:33,720 --> 01:27:36,679
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah, especially if the pages make a deep run.

1885
01:27:37,840 --> 01:27:40,719
Speaker 1: You got to if you're a person in the NFL,

1886
01:27:40,800 --> 01:27:43,720
Speaker 1: you got a family, whatever, you got to strike while

1887
01:27:43,760 --> 01:27:44,800
Speaker 1: the iron's hot.

1888
01:27:45,040 --> 01:27:47,720
Speaker 3: So you know, in that particular case that that I

1889
01:27:47,800 --> 01:27:49,880
Speaker 3: just brought up, And if that's a complete hypothetical, I

1890
01:27:49,920 --> 01:27:53,200
Speaker 3: have not heard any noise about that at all. But

1891
01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:56,600
Speaker 3: if Terrell Williams comes back, you know, and let's face it,

1892
01:27:56,640 --> 01:27:59,439
Speaker 3: we all hope he does, he's you know, stronger and

1893
01:27:59,479 --> 01:28:02,479
Speaker 3: healthier than ever. That's what everybody's hoping for. If he

1894
01:28:02,560 --> 01:28:05,040
Speaker 3: comes back and is the defensive coordinator next year. If

1895
01:28:05,040 --> 01:28:07,120
Speaker 3: you're Zach Khorr and you go back, well, now I'm

1896
01:28:07,160 --> 01:28:09,680
Speaker 3: not the coordinator anymore, and someone wants me to be

1897
01:28:09,720 --> 01:28:12,680
Speaker 3: their coordinator, right right, Why wouldn't.

1898
01:28:12,360 --> 01:28:14,679
Speaker 1: You conside I may not get that opportunity next year.

1899
01:28:14,800 --> 01:28:17,160
Speaker 1: So I don't blame any of these guys, just as

1900
01:28:17,240 --> 01:28:20,000
Speaker 1: I don't blame free agents for changing teams or coaches

1901
01:28:20,439 --> 01:28:21,000
Speaker 1: for that matter.

1902
01:28:21,000 --> 01:28:23,799
Speaker 3: And we've talked a lot about they have a handful

1903
01:28:23,840 --> 01:28:27,439
Speaker 3: of former head coaches on staff. You know, Thomas Brown

1904
01:28:27,520 --> 01:28:28,800
Speaker 3: is one of them. He was an interim coach for

1905
01:28:28,840 --> 01:28:32,280
Speaker 3: the Bears. You know, Doug Moron. Todd Downing has been

1906
01:28:32,320 --> 01:28:36,960
Speaker 3: an offensive coordinator elsewhere, Josh McDaniel's former head coach elsewhere.

1907
01:28:37,320 --> 01:28:38,800
Speaker 3: I think there's going to be interest in some of

1908
01:28:38,840 --> 01:28:41,080
Speaker 3: these guys. Yeah, these are again, these are the problems

1909
01:28:41,120 --> 01:28:42,000
Speaker 3: that good teams face.

1910
01:28:42,120 --> 01:28:44,599
Speaker 1: Yep, all right, eight five to five past five hundred.

1911
01:28:44,720 --> 01:28:47,679
Speaker 1: Let's get back to the phones. Todd's and Gardner. What's up, Todd?

1912
01:28:49,120 --> 01:28:51,400
Speaker 7: I just want to thank you guys for the journey.

1913
01:28:52,280 --> 01:28:54,160
Speaker 7: You know, when to start in the preseason and.

1914
01:28:54,439 --> 01:28:55,400
Speaker 1: Don't stop believing.

1915
01:28:56,920 --> 01:28:59,360
Speaker 7: Yeah, we have we have some concerns with Hollins or

1916
01:28:59,360 --> 01:29:01,720
Speaker 7: Williams Daber. We weren't sure what we're going to get

1917
01:29:01,800 --> 01:29:04,880
Speaker 7: and I just want at that time was looking to say, hey,

1918
01:29:04,920 --> 01:29:06,639
Speaker 7: I don't want to be in the basement in the AFC.

1919
01:29:07,320 --> 01:29:11,000
Speaker 7: That was my goal for the year, and with everything

1920
01:29:11,040 --> 01:29:13,240
Speaker 7: that's happened, I think I actually will be disappointed if

1921
01:29:13,240 --> 01:29:16,040
Speaker 7: we don't win this game. So that's how far we progressed.

1922
01:29:16,040 --> 01:29:17,920
Speaker 7: And you guys got us there like you guys took

1923
01:29:18,000 --> 01:29:19,840
Speaker 7: us through this whole journey, and we went there together

1924
01:29:19,960 --> 01:29:21,880
Speaker 7: with the ups and downs, and I really appreciate it,

1925
01:29:22,120 --> 01:29:24,080
Speaker 7: But I wonder how far have you felt that you

1926
01:29:24,240 --> 01:29:27,600
Speaker 7: progressed from where you started, say, preseason treating camp, and

1927
01:29:28,200 --> 01:29:29,200
Speaker 7: where you got to now?

1928
01:29:29,439 --> 01:29:33,000
Speaker 1: All right, guys, okay, thanks. I mean for me, it's

1929
01:29:33,200 --> 01:29:38,639
Speaker 1: you know, it's come. I've you know, I didn't think

1930
01:29:38,680 --> 01:29:41,040
Speaker 1: they would do this in the beginning of the season.

1931
01:29:41,120 --> 01:29:43,840
Speaker 1: So how far have I come? I've come to now

1932
01:29:43,920 --> 01:29:46,000
Speaker 1: thinking we're going to beat the San Diego Charges in

1933
01:29:46,040 --> 01:29:48,719
Speaker 1: the wildcard round of the playoffs. Yeah, I mean that's

1934
01:29:49,080 --> 01:29:51,240
Speaker 1: I would agree. Who'd have thunk?

1935
01:29:51,640 --> 01:29:54,600
Speaker 3: And you know, I think Todd said you would have

1936
01:29:54,600 --> 01:29:56,720
Speaker 3: been happy just not to finish last, and that's what

1937
01:29:56,800 --> 01:29:59,479
Speaker 3: I was thinking. I figured they'd finish third. I thought

1938
01:29:59,479 --> 01:30:02,040
Speaker 3: they would be of the jets behind my second in

1939
01:30:02,080 --> 01:30:04,760
Speaker 3: the I'm on record saying you did. You did, and

1940
01:30:04,800 --> 01:30:07,160
Speaker 3: you were a little bit more optimistic than I was.

1941
01:30:08,280 --> 01:30:11,120
Speaker 3: But I mean, I felt, you know, somewhere, you know,

1942
01:30:11,200 --> 01:30:15,920
Speaker 3: six seven, eight wins was was definitely reasonable, and I

1943
01:30:16,280 --> 01:30:18,040
Speaker 3: felt like there were and there were a lot. It

1944
01:30:18,160 --> 01:30:19,840
Speaker 3: wasn't just one or two people. There were there were

1945
01:30:19,840 --> 01:30:23,000
Speaker 3: a handful of people in the local media here that

1946
01:30:23,040 --> 01:30:28,400
Speaker 3: were predicting ten eleven, twelve, one had thirteen, and I

1947
01:30:28,479 --> 01:30:30,840
Speaker 3: will be the first one to admit I laughed at

1948
01:30:30,960 --> 01:30:33,920
Speaker 3: at something. You know, you know, ten. Okay, if everything

1949
01:30:33,960 --> 01:30:36,320
Speaker 3: goes perfectly and Drake May is really good, yeah ten,

1950
01:30:36,400 --> 01:30:39,160
Speaker 3: I thought ten was the ceiling. But yeah, thirteen I

1951
01:30:39,200 --> 01:30:42,240
Speaker 3: thought was outrageous and they ended up winning fourteen. So

1952
01:30:42,280 --> 01:30:44,560
Speaker 3: that's how far my mind, right.

1953
01:30:44,840 --> 01:30:56,080
Speaker 1: I mean? Yeah? How about uh, George and Kansas? What's up? George, George, George, George,

1954
01:30:56,320 --> 01:30:59,519
Speaker 1: George of the Jungle. Remember that cartoon George Georgie? Are

1955
01:30:59,520 --> 01:31:04,640
Speaker 1: you there, George George? All right, George is gone? Kansas.

1956
01:31:05,800 --> 01:31:11,919
Speaker 1: Oh there's another person from Kansas, Daniels in Kansas. What's up, Daniel, Hey, guys,

1957
01:31:12,120 --> 01:31:14,320
Speaker 1: what's up on? What's happening?

1958
01:31:14,760 --> 01:31:17,720
Speaker 7: Shut you guys out, Thank you very much. Just that

1959
01:31:17,840 --> 01:31:21,840
Speaker 7: work here only Patriots fan in a like one hundred

1960
01:31:21,920 --> 01:31:25,479
Speaker 7: mile radius here in the middle of nowhere, Kansas. Just

1961
01:31:25,520 --> 01:31:28,519
Speaker 7: a quick one for you, guys. Do you think Hunter

1962
01:31:28,640 --> 01:31:31,680
Speaker 7: Henry is excited for this weekend? And do you think

1963
01:31:31,720 --> 01:31:35,080
Speaker 7: he'll have a big game considering the Charger struggled against

1964
01:31:35,080 --> 01:31:36,160
Speaker 7: some sight ends this season?

1965
01:31:37,280 --> 01:31:38,400
Speaker 1: All right, thanks, Daniel.

1966
01:31:38,600 --> 01:31:40,960
Speaker 3: I do think Henry's been a pretty important guy for

1967
01:31:41,080 --> 01:31:44,599
Speaker 3: Drake May all season long. He's been pretty consistent and

1968
01:31:44,680 --> 01:31:48,200
Speaker 3: I expect that to continue. You know, Evan sort of

1969
01:31:48,200 --> 01:31:50,639
Speaker 3: felt like Diggs and Henry would be the focal point

1970
01:31:51,360 --> 01:31:54,599
Speaker 3: for Jesse Minter and the Chargers defense. But I think

1971
01:31:54,640 --> 01:31:56,200
Speaker 3: that's what's one thing to say, we got to take

1972
01:31:56,240 --> 01:31:57,840
Speaker 3: these guys out. I'm not sure they're going to be

1973
01:31:57,880 --> 01:32:00,160
Speaker 3: able to do that. I would expect Henry to have of,

1974
01:32:00,680 --> 01:32:01,920
Speaker 3: you know, an impact on the game.

1975
01:32:03,080 --> 01:32:08,240
Speaker 1: But as Evan said, he's he thinks that the Charges

1976
01:32:08,280 --> 01:32:10,680
Speaker 1: will have a plan for dayson Henry, right, And why

1977
01:32:10,720 --> 01:32:11,280
Speaker 1: wouldn't they?

1978
01:32:11,400 --> 01:32:11,639
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1979
01:32:11,680 --> 01:32:13,240
Speaker 3: No, I mean, those are the two guys that you

1980
01:32:13,240 --> 01:32:14,920
Speaker 3: would worry about at the top of the list. I

1981
01:32:15,000 --> 01:32:17,160
Speaker 3: just feel like they're also at the top of that

1982
01:32:17,200 --> 01:32:18,000
Speaker 3: list for a reason.

1983
01:32:18,240 --> 01:32:25,040
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, Ted says, and he's in Vegas. The Patriots

1984
01:32:25,080 --> 01:32:28,400
Speaker 1: have the worst strength of schedule three ninety one, and

1985
01:32:28,479 --> 01:32:31,400
Speaker 1: Denver has the second worst strength of schedule for twenty two.

1986
01:32:31,880 --> 01:32:35,360
Speaker 1: But I never hear people complain about Denver's easy schedule.

1987
01:32:34,960 --> 01:32:35,760
Speaker 3: And you don't listen high.

1988
01:32:35,800 --> 01:32:38,800
Speaker 1: I only hear people complain about the Patriots schedule. Why

1989
01:32:38,800 --> 01:32:39,920
Speaker 1: does Denver get a pass?

1990
01:32:40,280 --> 01:32:42,479
Speaker 3: You're not listening hard enough. There's a lot of people

1991
01:32:42,479 --> 01:32:45,000
Speaker 3: that are questioned both of those teams there being paper

1992
01:32:45,040 --> 01:32:46,400
Speaker 3: Tigers are fourteen wins.

1993
01:32:46,680 --> 01:32:47,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, a matter of.

1994
01:32:47,479 --> 01:32:50,880
Speaker 3: Fact, around here, if you listen around here, it's a

1995
01:32:50,880 --> 01:32:53,799
Speaker 3: complete dismissal of Denver because they played so many close games.

1996
01:32:53,840 --> 01:32:55,680
Speaker 3: I think they have eleven to one score wins or

1997
01:32:55,720 --> 01:32:56,160
Speaker 3: something like that.

1998
01:32:56,200 --> 01:32:58,400
Speaker 1: The dismissal I hear of Denver around here is because

1999
01:32:58,400 --> 01:33:00,920
Speaker 1: of bo Nicks. But I think he's pretty good.

2000
01:33:02,040 --> 01:33:04,400
Speaker 3: I just don't think he plays anywhere near the caliber

2001
01:33:04,439 --> 01:33:05,040
Speaker 3: that makes no.

2002
01:33:05,720 --> 01:33:08,960
Speaker 1: But like I think in crunch time, he's got some sand.

2003
01:33:09,040 --> 01:33:11,000
Speaker 3: He's been good when he's had to be, but he's

2004
01:33:11,000 --> 01:33:13,919
Speaker 3: not very consistent, and I think in a playoff scenario

2005
01:33:14,080 --> 01:33:16,600
Speaker 3: you end up not being good for the balance of

2006
01:33:16,600 --> 01:33:17,799
Speaker 3: the game and there's no game.

2007
01:33:17,640 --> 01:33:19,840
Speaker 1: To come back for, right, But he's got some sand

2008
01:33:19,880 --> 01:33:20,000
Speaker 1: in it.

2009
01:33:20,240 --> 01:33:22,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot of criticism for the for the

2010
01:33:22,880 --> 01:33:25,759
Speaker 3: other teams. The Patriots have not just the worst schedule

2011
01:33:25,840 --> 01:33:29,000
Speaker 3: this year, it's historically the weakest schedule since they really

2012
01:33:29,040 --> 01:33:29,960
Speaker 3: been tracking this stuff.

2013
01:33:30,880 --> 01:33:34,719
Speaker 1: Chris in New Hampshire has a question how many wins

2014
01:33:35,000 --> 01:33:37,960
Speaker 1: constitutes a playoff run and does the number depend on

2015
01:33:37,960 --> 01:33:39,920
Speaker 1: whether or not the team hosts the game. Can a

2016
01:33:39,960 --> 01:33:44,280
Speaker 1: wildcard team win less games but still be on a run? Also,

2017
01:33:44,479 --> 01:33:48,920
Speaker 1: to get more into the Semantico minute, what constitutes a

2018
01:33:48,960 --> 01:33:51,759
Speaker 1: team having a little bit of a playoff run? Hopefully

2019
01:33:51,760 --> 01:33:54,840
Speaker 1: the spark's an argument. I think one game would be

2020
01:33:54,880 --> 01:33:57,599
Speaker 1: a playoff run. Right, you win a game and then

2021
01:33:57,600 --> 01:33:58,360
Speaker 1: you're on a run.

2022
01:33:58,479 --> 01:34:00,960
Speaker 3: So is he yeah, you can't make a play you

2023
01:34:01,000 --> 01:34:02,440
Speaker 3: made a run to the playoffs?

2024
01:34:02,800 --> 01:34:04,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh right, that's right.

2025
01:34:04,640 --> 01:34:06,439
Speaker 3: And if you lose the first game, you didn't make

2026
01:34:06,439 --> 01:34:07,120
Speaker 3: a playoff run.

2027
01:34:07,200 --> 01:34:09,160
Speaker 1: Yeah right. I think he's talking about once you.

2028
01:34:09,120 --> 01:34:10,519
Speaker 3: Get in there, Once you get in I think you

2029
01:34:10,560 --> 01:34:11,160
Speaker 3: have to win a game.

2030
01:34:11,240 --> 01:34:13,360
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah? Is that yeah?

2031
01:34:13,400 --> 01:34:14,719
Speaker 3: Okay, So he's no argument.

2032
01:34:14,800 --> 01:34:17,479
Speaker 1: He's wondering, That's what I'm saying. But he's wondering if

2033
01:34:18,680 --> 01:34:21,120
Speaker 1: so for some people that doesn't constitute a run. You

2034
01:34:21,160 --> 01:34:22,479
Speaker 1: have to win two or more?

2035
01:34:23,240 --> 01:34:24,960
Speaker 3: No, I think you you win a game, you made

2036
01:34:24,960 --> 01:34:25,240
Speaker 3: a run.

2037
01:34:25,320 --> 01:34:27,640
Speaker 1: Yeah. There's only four games total to get to the

2038
01:34:28,080 --> 01:34:28,599
Speaker 1: you know three.

2039
01:34:28,880 --> 01:34:32,000
Speaker 3: And I think his point is is by winning a

2040
01:34:32,040 --> 01:34:34,519
Speaker 3: wild card. In other words, if the Patriots losing the

2041
01:34:34,520 --> 01:34:39,040
Speaker 3: division round and the Broncos losing the division round, did

2042
01:34:39,080 --> 01:34:41,800
Speaker 3: either one of them make a playoff run, or did

2043
01:34:41,840 --> 01:34:43,479
Speaker 3: only one of them make a playoff run because the

2044
01:34:43,479 --> 01:34:45,600
Speaker 3: Patriots won a game and then got knocked out and

2045
01:34:45,640 --> 01:34:47,880
Speaker 3: the Broncos had the buy and got knocked out. Yeah,

2046
01:34:47,920 --> 01:34:49,480
Speaker 3: I mean semantics.

2047
01:34:50,800 --> 01:34:55,280
Speaker 1: Eric from Amherstburg, Evan being so worried about losing sounds

2048
01:34:55,320 --> 01:34:57,360
Speaker 1: like you might want a writer on call if we lose.

2049
01:34:57,400 --> 01:34:59,960
Speaker 1: To cover Evan, I'm thirty two, and if he's being

2050
01:35:00,120 --> 01:35:03,400
Speaker 1: worried about going one and done, it's weak mentality.

2051
01:35:04,360 --> 01:35:09,120
Speaker 3: Wow, well, so I'm not sure I'd like to follow

2052
01:35:09,200 --> 01:35:12,840
Speaker 3: up on that email. Is it weak because you're worried

2053
01:35:12,840 --> 01:35:15,840
Speaker 3: about losing or week because you can't handle losing?

2054
01:35:16,120 --> 01:35:17,120
Speaker 1: I think can't handle it?

2055
01:35:17,160 --> 01:35:20,080
Speaker 3: Oh okay, yeah, yeah, I mean I would largely can't

2056
01:35:20,080 --> 01:35:20,400
Speaker 3: handle it.

2057
01:35:20,600 --> 01:35:25,000
Speaker 1: I would largely say yeah. Jay in Minnesota says Evan

2058
01:35:25,040 --> 01:35:27,960
Speaker 1: can't keep doing this. I think on Wednesday and Thursdays,

2059
01:35:27,960 --> 01:35:29,800
Speaker 1: we need to move up the show an hour early.

2060
01:35:29,880 --> 01:35:32,439
Speaker 1: Too many times we have let Evan sneak out early

2061
01:35:32,840 --> 01:35:35,559
Speaker 1: because he's in a great argument with Paula Fred. We

2062
01:35:35,640 --> 01:35:38,639
Speaker 1: can't keep letting Evan think he's won the argument because

2063
01:35:38,680 --> 01:35:42,200
Speaker 1: he walked out. Also deuce what vibes are we looking for?

2064
01:35:42,200 --> 01:35:44,679
Speaker 1: In the locker room. I vote for an hour earlier

2065
01:35:45,240 --> 01:35:45,840
Speaker 1: for the show.

2066
01:35:46,520 --> 01:35:50,080
Speaker 3: Well, there's another show on before us on Wednesdays from

2067
01:35:50,120 --> 01:35:52,360
Speaker 3: ten to twelve, right, it's called Catch twenty two.

2068
01:35:52,720 --> 01:35:54,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, Evan, you know.

2069
01:35:54,280 --> 01:35:57,120
Speaker 3: And really originally that was kind of the plan, was

2070
01:35:57,120 --> 01:35:59,360
Speaker 3: Evan was going to do Catch twenty two and then

2071
01:35:59,680 --> 01:36:03,240
Speaker 3: Mike Bred and I would handle Patriots on Filter. But

2072
01:36:03,280 --> 01:36:06,960
Speaker 3: Evan can't get enough Fred, and he stays here for

2073
01:36:06,960 --> 01:36:11,040
Speaker 3: another hour, yeah, and joins us for our show. Yep,

2074
01:36:12,640 --> 01:36:14,680
Speaker 3: there's a lot of other things going on here, Like

2075
01:36:14,960 --> 01:36:16,080
Speaker 3: just that's the bottom line.

2076
01:36:16,400 --> 01:36:18,519
Speaker 1: This isn't our main job. This is my main job.

2077
01:36:18,960 --> 01:36:20,920
Speaker 3: This is what I love to do because Fred and

2078
01:36:20,920 --> 01:36:25,280
Speaker 3: I like we majored in arguing, in bickering. Like Jerry Madelon,

2079
01:36:25,360 --> 01:36:27,559
Speaker 3: our famous host loves to call us the odd couple.

2080
01:36:27,600 --> 01:36:30,720
Speaker 3: I think it's very appropriate. But everybody, we all have

2081
01:36:30,800 --> 01:36:31,839
Speaker 3: a lot of other things.

2082
01:36:31,640 --> 01:36:35,880
Speaker 1: To do too, Anthony writes in just a Story about

2083
01:36:35,920 --> 01:36:38,040
Speaker 1: being bummed out. I live in New York, as you

2084
01:36:38,080 --> 01:36:40,880
Speaker 1: may know. Well I didn't really, but so when the

2085
01:36:40,920 --> 01:36:43,479
Speaker 1: Patriots lose I hear about it. Not only does it

2086
01:36:43,560 --> 01:36:47,080
Speaker 1: kill my mood and depress me. Every single person knows

2087
01:36:47,080 --> 01:36:50,599
Speaker 1: how much I love the Patriots. Afterward, they'll either give

2088
01:36:50,600 --> 01:36:53,679
Speaker 1: me that haha, sucks for you look, or the ah,

2089
01:36:53,760 --> 01:36:57,640
Speaker 1: sorry about your team, kind of condescending. Look. The twenty

2090
01:36:57,680 --> 01:37:00,400
Speaker 1: eleven Super Bowl was the worst. Some of my closest

2091
01:37:00,400 --> 01:37:03,280
Speaker 1: friends are obviously Giants and Jets fans. I watched in

2092
01:37:03,280 --> 01:37:06,160
Speaker 1: a room full of Giants fans, about twenty people. I

2093
01:37:06,240 --> 01:37:09,360
Speaker 1: walked out immediately after the final play. That lost did

2094
01:37:09,439 --> 01:37:11,920
Speaker 1: something to me, and now whenever they lose, I just

2095
01:37:11,960 --> 01:37:12,759
Speaker 1: feel terrible.

2096
01:37:13,640 --> 01:37:17,240
Speaker 3: That's a little different, Like you watch the two thousand

2097
01:37:17,240 --> 01:37:19,799
Speaker 3: and seven Super Bowl with a room full of Giants fans.

2098
01:37:20,000 --> 01:37:20,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, like that.

2099
01:37:20,680 --> 01:37:22,680
Speaker 3: Don't you think that's a little different than just like

2100
01:37:23,280 --> 01:37:25,360
Speaker 3: my tea, my team lost, sure, and now I'm going

2101
01:37:25,439 --> 01:37:27,280
Speaker 3: to get you know, I mean.

2102
01:37:27,280 --> 01:37:30,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like PTSD shit man. Yeah, I mean that's crazy.

2103
01:37:30,160 --> 01:37:33,160
Speaker 3: You're with the Giants fans. They they like, that's not

2104
01:37:33,240 --> 01:37:35,559
Speaker 3: like they're making fun of you. Like their team just

2105
01:37:35,640 --> 01:37:39,280
Speaker 3: won a colossal upset in the super Bowl. Like, don't

2106
01:37:39,320 --> 01:37:40,360
Speaker 3: you think they should be happy?

2107
01:37:40,479 --> 01:37:46,160
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, Christen Virginia. Amongst the MVP debate, here's a

2108
01:37:46,200 --> 01:37:49,280
Speaker 1: short quiz relating to MVPs in the postseason for Paul

2109
01:37:50,080 --> 01:37:53,400
Speaker 1: since two thousand, the Patriots have faced the MVP in

2110
01:37:53,479 --> 01:37:58,840
Speaker 1: the postseason eight times. The record against the MVP in

2111
01:37:58,920 --> 01:38:02,599
Speaker 1: postseason is seven one. Can you name the MVP who

2112
01:38:02,640 --> 01:38:05,280
Speaker 1: was defeated by the Patriots in the following seasons?

2113
01:38:05,360 --> 01:38:05,439
Speaker 2: Oh?

2114
01:38:05,520 --> 01:38:09,040
Speaker 1: One, right, Three.

2115
01:38:09,920 --> 01:38:14,759
Speaker 3: McNair and Manning. That's right, mvph four. I'm gonna guess

2116
01:38:14,760 --> 01:38:15,519
Speaker 3: Manning again.

2117
01:38:16,360 --> 01:38:20,200
Speaker 1: Six lt that's right.

2118
01:38:20,800 --> 01:38:31,679
Speaker 3: Sixteen Matt Ryan, that's correct. Eighteen Mahomes, that's right.

2119
01:38:31,960 --> 01:38:34,680
Speaker 1: You got it. Finally, for a bonus point, who is

2120
01:38:34,720 --> 01:38:37,640
Speaker 1: the only MVP that the Patriots have lost to in

2121
01:38:37,720 --> 01:38:39,400
Speaker 1: the postseason since two thousand?

2122
01:38:45,200 --> 01:38:46,439
Speaker 3: You're not gonna give me the year for that?

2123
01:38:46,479 --> 01:38:46,599
Speaker 2: One?

2124
01:38:46,640 --> 01:38:52,519
Speaker 1: Huh thirteen Manning? That's right. There you go. You can't

2125
01:38:52,560 --> 01:38:54,200
Speaker 1: stump the grump.

2126
01:38:54,960 --> 01:38:56,680
Speaker 3: I would I needed the years, though, I don't think

2127
01:38:56,680 --> 01:38:59,360
Speaker 3: I would have gotten all those like that. I needed

2128
01:38:59,400 --> 01:38:59,800
Speaker 3: the years.

2129
01:39:00,360 --> 01:39:00,679
Speaker 2: I think.

2130
01:39:01,200 --> 01:39:07,040
Speaker 3: I think Mahomes he won the he won the MVP

2131
01:39:07,160 --> 01:39:12,240
Speaker 3: in the Super Bowl in like twenty one. Maybe I

2132
01:39:12,280 --> 01:39:14,200
Speaker 3: don't know one of those years that the Chiefs won

2133
01:39:14,360 --> 01:39:15,880
Speaker 3: and that was kind of broke a streak.

2134
01:39:15,960 --> 01:39:17,599
Speaker 1: I think it was the net was it nineteen?

2135
01:39:18,600 --> 01:39:20,880
Speaker 3: The next year, maybe it was nineteen, I don't know.

2136
01:39:21,080 --> 01:39:25,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's see Nick and Connecticut. After listening to calls

2137
01:39:25,640 --> 01:39:29,000
Speaker 1: and emails for the past week suggesting nicknames for Drake,

2138
01:39:29,080 --> 01:39:32,880
Speaker 1: I thank god the Patriots unfiltered listeners are not responsible

2139
01:39:32,920 --> 01:39:34,040
Speaker 1: for creating nicknames.

2140
01:39:36,320 --> 01:39:38,559
Speaker 3: Wow, that's a listener and listening to crime.

2141
01:39:38,760 --> 01:39:40,360
Speaker 1: I like it. The whole thing about Nick Day. You

2142
01:39:40,400 --> 01:39:43,120
Speaker 1: can't create it. It just has to be organic, like

2143
01:39:43,160 --> 01:39:44,000
Speaker 1: it just happened, you know.

2144
01:39:44,000 --> 01:39:47,400
Speaker 3: It's funny. I was listening. I was watching the John

2145
01:39:47,439 --> 01:39:49,560
Speaker 3: Elway documentary on Netflix. Have you seen any of this?

2146
01:39:49,720 --> 01:39:51,320
Speaker 1: Fred? I know you like that way too.

2147
01:39:51,880 --> 01:39:54,439
Speaker 3: I watched probably like the first forty five minutes or so,

2148
01:39:55,080 --> 01:39:57,200
Speaker 3: and then I got sidetracked. I had to shut it off.

2149
01:39:58,400 --> 01:40:01,840
Speaker 3: But just like they called him the Duke, you know,

2150
01:40:01,840 --> 01:40:03,559
Speaker 3: because they kind of thought he walked a little bit

2151
01:40:03,640 --> 01:40:06,400
Speaker 3: like John Wayne. They called him the Duke of Denver, yep,

2152
01:40:07,000 --> 01:40:07,720
Speaker 3: the riflemen.

2153
01:40:08,040 --> 01:40:08,519
Speaker 1: Yeah.

2154
01:40:08,560 --> 01:40:11,800
Speaker 3: So it's like maybe there's more nicknames out there than yeah,

2155
01:40:12,080 --> 01:40:17,800
Speaker 3: And we kind of thought.

2156
01:40:15,479 --> 01:40:17,839
Speaker 1: This one came in yesterday. But I saved it because

2157
01:40:17,880 --> 01:40:19,360
Speaker 1: I do want to answer it. I don't want to

2158
01:40:19,560 --> 01:40:23,320
Speaker 1: duck it. Robert in Portland, Maine says early in the season,

2159
01:40:23,320 --> 01:40:26,080
Speaker 1: when Andre Stevenson had fumbles in two different games. At

2160
01:40:26,080 --> 01:40:28,479
Speaker 1: the time, the PU Crew said that the Patriots didn't

2161
01:40:28,520 --> 01:40:30,960
Speaker 1: have a deep enough bench to take Romandre out of

2162
01:40:31,000 --> 01:40:34,479
Speaker 1: the rotation and that even if Ramandre never fumbles again

2163
01:40:34,560 --> 01:40:37,200
Speaker 1: this season, the Patriots should move on from him in

2164
01:40:37,240 --> 01:40:40,920
Speaker 1: the offseason. Romandre only had one more fumble this season

2165
01:40:41,160 --> 01:40:44,000
Speaker 1: and has had multiple clutch plays. As we enter the playoffs,

2166
01:40:44,200 --> 01:40:46,960
Speaker 1: where does the PU crew now stand on Remandre.

2167
01:40:49,439 --> 01:40:51,160
Speaker 3: I think I might have said that they will move

2168
01:40:51,200 --> 01:40:54,120
Speaker 3: on from him, not that they should. I would not,

2169
01:40:55,600 --> 01:40:58,600
Speaker 3: but I am higher on ramondre Stevenson than most. I

2170
01:40:58,600 --> 01:41:01,040
Speaker 3: think he does a lot of different things that helped

2171
01:41:01,040 --> 01:41:05,280
Speaker 3: the team win. And I think I probably changed my

2172
01:41:05,439 --> 01:41:07,840
Speaker 3: viewpoint from what I had earlier in the season based

2173
01:41:07,880 --> 01:41:10,519
Speaker 3: on the way Mike Rabel has talked about him throughout

2174
01:41:10,560 --> 01:41:14,600
Speaker 3: the year. I think he's a Rabel kind of guy. Yeah,

2175
01:41:14,840 --> 01:41:16,840
Speaker 3: I wouldn't be surprised. And the reason why I thought

2176
01:41:16,880 --> 01:41:19,639
Speaker 3: they would move on from him was had almost almost

2177
01:41:19,760 --> 01:41:23,000
Speaker 3: nothing to do with the fumbles. It was about I

2178
01:41:23,080 --> 01:41:27,559
Speaker 3: feel like Mike Rabel did all he could to sort

2179
01:41:27,600 --> 01:41:31,400
Speaker 3: of move past what was already here and the ones

2180
01:41:31,439 --> 01:41:33,720
Speaker 3: that he didn't with the guys that had contracts that

2181
01:41:34,160 --> 01:41:38,040
Speaker 3: kind of prohibited it. It wasn't cost effective. And I'm

2182
01:41:38,040 --> 01:41:44,400
Speaker 3: thinking of guys like Mike oh Winu, Christian Barmore, Ramandre Stevenson.

2183
01:41:44,479 --> 01:41:47,000
Speaker 3: There were a handful of guys that just got extensions

2184
01:41:47,920 --> 01:41:51,080
Speaker 3: from the previous regime that it wouldn't have necessarily been

2185
01:41:51,880 --> 01:41:55,519
Speaker 3: cost effective to do so, and Stevenson was one of them.

2186
01:41:56,280 --> 01:41:58,040
Speaker 3: But I think he could be. I think he could

2187
01:41:58,040 --> 01:41:58,799
Speaker 3: be part of the future.

2188
01:41:59,720 --> 01:42:02,920
Speaker 1: I have to walk it back. I mean, if I

2189
01:42:03,560 --> 01:42:05,479
Speaker 1: remember the feeling. I don't know if I was the

2190
01:42:05,520 --> 01:42:08,519
Speaker 1: one who said those words, but I remember the feeling

2191
01:42:08,600 --> 01:42:11,680
Speaker 1: like you just can't tolerate that. You just can't have

2192
01:42:11,760 --> 01:42:16,439
Speaker 1: a guy out there dropping the ball. So I remember

2193
01:42:16,479 --> 01:42:19,559
Speaker 1: thinking that. But listen, that's why Mike Vrabel's a head

2194
01:42:19,560 --> 01:42:22,040
Speaker 1: coach in the NFL and I'm not. He dealt with

2195
01:42:22,040 --> 01:42:26,880
Speaker 1: the situation perfectly, and he did, and so thank god

2196
01:42:27,120 --> 01:42:29,160
Speaker 1: I'm not the head coach and he is. But I

2197
01:42:29,200 --> 01:42:30,400
Speaker 1: think people do forget.

2198
01:42:30,479 --> 01:42:32,679
Speaker 3: And I agree with you that I thought Vrabel handled

2199
01:42:32,680 --> 01:42:38,080
Speaker 3: it really, really well. His workload was drastically reduced.

2200
01:42:38,120 --> 01:42:39,280
Speaker 1: Oh it was, and had to be.

2201
01:42:39,520 --> 01:42:41,280
Speaker 3: He didn't get to he didn't get benched.

2202
01:42:41,439 --> 01:42:43,280
Speaker 1: That's negligence. If you can't get out.

2203
01:42:43,280 --> 01:42:47,840
Speaker 3: But I think people, I think people with you know,

2204
01:42:48,320 --> 01:42:53,320
Speaker 3: the results of the last month have rewritten history a

2205
01:42:53,360 --> 01:42:57,519
Speaker 3: little bit like, no, nothing changed, Oh no, no, something changed. Yes,

2206
01:42:57,680 --> 01:43:01,120
Speaker 3: his workload was diminished in the immediate aftermath of those

2207
01:43:01,320 --> 01:43:06,200
Speaker 3: those tumbles, and he gradually earned the trust. I remember

2208
01:43:06,240 --> 01:43:09,360
Speaker 3: you had Gibson back there, yes, right, Yes, that's part

2209
01:43:09,400 --> 01:43:12,040
Speaker 3: of where he lost some carries to and then Henderson

2210
01:43:12,040 --> 01:43:15,160
Speaker 3: eventually emerged because Henderson got off to a slow start,

2211
01:43:15,880 --> 01:43:18,080
Speaker 3: and then you know, about halfway through it was probably

2212
01:43:18,080 --> 01:43:21,360
Speaker 3: that Tampa game that Henderson hit a couple of big

2213
01:43:21,400 --> 01:43:23,120
Speaker 3: plays and was like, whoa, you know, now we got

2214
01:43:23,120 --> 01:43:27,680
Speaker 3: this explosive guy. And eventually I think Stevenson, you know,

2215
01:43:27,760 --> 01:43:30,000
Speaker 3: earned his way back in a circle of trust.

2216
01:43:30,080 --> 01:43:32,120
Speaker 1: Let's just say that Gibson got hurt in training camp

2217
01:43:32,200 --> 01:43:33,639
Speaker 1: or never made it the season, or he got hurt

2218
01:43:33,640 --> 01:43:35,880
Speaker 1: in the first game or whatever, and you only had

2219
01:43:36,360 --> 01:43:39,760
Speaker 1: Henderson and Stevenson. I don't know if then in the

2220
01:43:39,800 --> 01:43:42,640
Speaker 1: trade deadline, if Rabel would have gone and gotten a

2221
01:43:42,680 --> 01:43:43,360
Speaker 1: running back.

2222
01:43:43,280 --> 01:43:46,040
Speaker 3: So at the trade deadline Gibson had been hurt, they

2223
01:43:46,040 --> 01:43:46,840
Speaker 3: could have made a move.

2224
01:43:46,880 --> 01:43:48,680
Speaker 1: Then that's true, that's true.

2225
01:43:48,400 --> 01:43:51,040
Speaker 3: But I'm just saying I want to say the last

2226
01:43:51,080 --> 01:43:55,000
Speaker 3: fumble that that Rimandre had was the Buffalo, the first

2227
01:43:55,040 --> 01:43:57,600
Speaker 3: Buffalo game, which is like week five, Week five, So

2228
01:43:57,640 --> 01:44:00,760
Speaker 3: there were a couple of weeks there that that he

2229
01:44:00,800 --> 01:44:02,479
Speaker 3: didn't get as many carries as he had.

2230
01:44:02,479 --> 01:44:03,439
Speaker 1: That's true, he didn't.

2231
01:44:03,479 --> 01:44:05,840
Speaker 3: He is and then eventually, you know, like he was

2232
01:44:05,880 --> 01:44:09,880
Speaker 3: out there like late game pass protection situations. You know

2233
01:44:10,200 --> 01:44:12,320
Speaker 3: that that's when he got his snaps. He didn't get

2234
01:44:12,320 --> 01:44:13,960
Speaker 3: as many touches there for a couple of weeks.

2235
01:44:14,000 --> 01:44:18,920
Speaker 1: It's true, Rick in Riverside, Rhode Island, it's a lot

2236
01:44:18,960 --> 01:44:23,160
Speaker 1: of ours. Like most Patriots fans, I believe we are

2237
01:44:23,160 --> 01:44:25,400
Speaker 1: currently playing with house money. But I think the Patriots

2238
01:44:25,439 --> 01:44:27,720
Speaker 1: can win it all this year. One, the run game

2239
01:44:27,720 --> 01:44:30,599
Speaker 1: has found its groove hitting the playoffs. Two overall team

2240
01:44:30,640 --> 01:44:33,799
Speaker 1: health is improving. Three the players seem bought into Rabel's

2241
01:44:33,880 --> 01:44:38,200
Speaker 1: message four Drake Drake may may win loser draw. This

2242
01:44:38,280 --> 01:44:41,080
Speaker 1: has been successful. Let's hope for four more wins.

2243
01:44:41,360 --> 01:44:45,880
Speaker 3: Okay, I would largely agree with everything about that email. Yeah,

2244
01:44:46,200 --> 01:44:47,120
Speaker 3: it's a rarity for.

2245
01:44:47,080 --> 01:44:52,080
Speaker 1: Me, Joe. If the haters are right and you weren't

2246
01:44:52,080 --> 01:44:54,839
Speaker 1: really that good, then be happy you got a fun season,

2247
01:44:54,840 --> 01:44:57,920
Speaker 1: and you probably shouldn't have full's gold is the only

2248
01:44:58,240 --> 01:45:00,040
Speaker 1: is only a bad thing if you don't believe that

2249
01:45:00,080 --> 01:45:03,680
Speaker 1: you have gold. I largely agree with that too. That's

2250
01:45:03,680 --> 01:45:05,640
Speaker 1: a good way of looking at it too. If you

2251
01:45:05,680 --> 01:45:08,120
Speaker 1: really don't think you're that good, then it's all gravy.

2252
01:45:08,200 --> 01:45:11,559
Speaker 3: But you also, I would look at it as, you know,

2253
01:45:11,640 --> 01:45:15,760
Speaker 3: again from completely from the team perspective, maybe I'm not

2254
01:45:15,880 --> 01:45:18,639
Speaker 3: that good this year, but I'm only going to get better.

2255
01:45:18,840 --> 01:45:20,280
Speaker 3: That's the way you look at it as a fan.

2256
01:45:20,360 --> 01:45:22,400
Speaker 3: Imagine what we're going to do next year. Now, I

2257
01:45:22,400 --> 01:45:25,080
Speaker 3: would be disappointed because I think this is an opportunity

2258
01:45:25,439 --> 01:45:27,240
Speaker 3: because I don't look at the teams in the AFC

2259
01:45:27,240 --> 01:45:30,799
Speaker 3: as being better than the Patriots next year. The Patriots

2260
01:45:30,840 --> 01:45:33,320
Speaker 3: could very well be better than they are now, but

2261
01:45:33,400 --> 01:45:35,800
Speaker 3: they might be two teams that are have reloaded and

2262
01:45:36,000 --> 01:45:38,479
Speaker 3: better than you. Yeah, and it'll be that much harder

2263
01:45:38,520 --> 01:45:41,240
Speaker 3: to make a run, you know what I mean. But

2264
01:45:41,840 --> 01:45:44,160
Speaker 3: I would look at it as, yeah, maybe maybe we're

2265
01:45:44,200 --> 01:45:47,600
Speaker 3: not quite as good as our record this year, but

2266
01:45:48,200 --> 01:45:50,040
Speaker 3: Drake may is going to be better. You might get

2267
01:45:50,520 --> 01:45:52,960
Speaker 3: another weapon to work with on the outside. Maybe Kyle

2268
01:45:53,000 --> 01:45:56,680
Speaker 3: Williams becomes a really dangerous guy next year for him

2269
01:45:56,760 --> 01:45:59,200
Speaker 3: after you know, a slow rookie year, I think you

2270
01:45:59,240 --> 01:46:02,120
Speaker 3: only caught ten pass all season. Maybe next year he's

2271
01:46:02,120 --> 01:46:04,080
Speaker 3: a guy who catches seventy passes for you when you

2272
01:46:04,120 --> 01:46:08,000
Speaker 3: have become a dangerous offense all over again. So this

2273
01:46:08,800 --> 01:46:10,800
Speaker 3: I think there's a lot to be excited about in

2274
01:46:10,840 --> 01:46:12,240
Speaker 3: the future, not just now.

2275
01:46:12,680 --> 01:46:19,040
Speaker 1: Max in Atlanta. My post vote MVP take Drake May

2276
01:46:19,120 --> 01:46:21,799
Speaker 1: is the MVP, and unless voters accidentally watch the games,

2277
01:46:21,840 --> 01:46:25,439
Speaker 1: he probably won't win it. At this point, MVP voting

2278
01:46:25,520 --> 01:46:30,639
Speaker 1: feels like sort by touchdowns than closed spreadsheet. For example,

2279
01:46:30,760 --> 01:46:33,760
Speaker 1: the other two most efficient seasons in my opinion are

2280
01:46:33,800 --> 01:46:36,719
Speaker 1: Breeze in eighteen and Golf in twenty four and eighteen.

2281
01:46:37,160 --> 01:46:40,800
Speaker 1: Breeze at seventy four percent, four thousand yards thirty six

2282
01:46:40,880 --> 01:46:44,160
Speaker 1: touchdowns lost to Mahomes who had five thousand yards and

2283
01:46:44,200 --> 01:46:46,200
Speaker 1: fifty touchdowns twenty four.

2284
01:46:47,240 --> 01:46:49,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, which one of those two you think is better?

2285
01:46:51,040 --> 01:46:52,639
Speaker 1: I think Mahomes probably a loss.

2286
01:46:52,720 --> 01:46:53,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, go ahead.

2287
01:46:53,680 --> 01:46:58,360
Speaker 1: Twenty four Goff at seventy two percent, forty seven hundred

2288
01:46:58,600 --> 01:47:02,400
Speaker 1: yards about and thirty seven tds lost to Josh Allen,

2289
01:47:02,880 --> 01:47:09,280
Speaker 1: who had four point two thousand yards in forty seven tds. Again,

2290
01:47:09,320 --> 01:47:10,400
Speaker 1: I don't know last year.

2291
01:47:10,520 --> 01:47:14,600
Speaker 3: Last year, well, Josh Jared Goff wasn't really even in consideration.

2292
01:47:14,680 --> 01:47:17,479
Speaker 3: It was Lamar Jackson last year who had vastly better numbers.

2293
01:47:17,479 --> 01:47:19,760
Speaker 3: So if they were just painting by touchdown numbers, Lamar

2294
01:47:19,840 --> 01:47:20,519
Speaker 3: Jackson would have won.

2295
01:47:20,479 --> 01:47:23,280
Speaker 1: On last year. May has been more efficient, more consistent

2296
01:47:23,400 --> 01:47:27,799
Speaker 1: ADS rushing, which should matter, but history says it probably didn't.

2297
01:47:28,080 --> 01:47:33,320
Speaker 1: Feels like another year where voters rewarded stat Padford and

2298
01:47:33,400 --> 01:47:34,040
Speaker 1: called it a day.

2299
01:47:34,160 --> 01:47:36,719
Speaker 3: See that's oh, that's got good.

2300
01:47:36,880 --> 01:47:37,400
Speaker 4: I like that.

2301
01:47:37,720 --> 01:47:39,559
Speaker 3: Evan just said that stat Padford.

2302
01:47:39,640 --> 01:47:41,040
Speaker 1: Yes, oh I didn't. I didn't hear him.

2303
01:47:41,200 --> 01:47:43,479
Speaker 3: Oh that was in the whole one yard touchdown past

2304
01:47:43,560 --> 01:47:45,960
Speaker 3: ran So like those don't count, you know, like the

2305
01:47:46,040 --> 01:47:48,759
Speaker 3: touchdown on fourth and goal in Tampa Bay, the digs,

2306
01:47:48,760 --> 01:47:51,240
Speaker 3: that doesn't count. It was a one yard touchdown. See

2307
01:47:51,240 --> 01:47:53,439
Speaker 3: here's the thing, though, you don't count. Isn't this You

2308
01:47:53,479 --> 01:47:54,160
Speaker 3: can't say that.

2309
01:47:54,040 --> 01:47:56,639
Speaker 1: The one yard touchdowns don't count and then say, oh,

2310
01:47:56,680 --> 01:47:59,960
Speaker 1: the Patriots have trouble in the red zone. Well that's

2311
01:48:00,080 --> 01:48:03,519
Speaker 1: where you have one touchdown passes in the red zone.

2312
01:48:03,560 --> 01:48:05,680
Speaker 3: That's a great point. That's a great point, you.

2313
01:48:05,640 --> 01:48:12,040
Speaker 1: Know, like, yeah, so listen, I think Drake May should

2314
01:48:12,040 --> 01:48:12,760
Speaker 1: be MVP. Two.

2315
01:48:12,960 --> 01:48:15,360
Speaker 3: I think you should be MVP. He would get my vote.

2316
01:48:15,360 --> 01:48:19,920
Speaker 3: I don't have one. Unfortunately, I just don't look at

2317
01:48:19,920 --> 01:48:25,400
Speaker 3: this as not being close the way so many Patriots

2318
01:48:25,439 --> 01:48:26,280
Speaker 3: fans have tried to.

2319
01:48:27,760 --> 01:48:31,519
Speaker 1: Ben in Manhattan, says Paul. Dismissed the notion that the

2320
01:48:31,560 --> 01:48:34,559
Speaker 1: difference in quarterbacking between May and Stafford is significant enough

2321
01:48:34,560 --> 01:48:36,920
Speaker 1: to impact the team's record this year. I would argue

2322
01:48:37,080 --> 01:48:40,240
Speaker 1: the Patriots have won against the Raiders Week one or

2323
01:48:40,240 --> 01:48:43,519
Speaker 1: the Steels Week three with Stafford, but I can't imagine

2324
01:48:43,600 --> 01:48:45,960
Speaker 1: Stafford would have been able to pull off the game

2325
01:48:46,000 --> 01:48:49,160
Speaker 1: against the Bills in Week five. May didn't account for

2326
01:48:49,200 --> 01:48:52,000
Speaker 1: a touchdown in the stat sheet, but this was undoubtedly

2327
01:48:52,040 --> 01:48:55,240
Speaker 1: a game that was razor thin and required pure athleticism

2328
01:48:55,280 --> 01:48:59,439
Speaker 1: to evade constant pressure for both underneath completions and deep balls. Great,

2329
01:49:01,200 --> 01:49:04,000
Speaker 1: this game wasn't won by McDaniels, but by the freakish

2330
01:49:04,000 --> 01:49:07,800
Speaker 1: athleticism and aggressiveness of May in the second half. So

2331
01:49:08,000 --> 01:49:09,719
Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you this is so funny.

2332
01:49:09,760 --> 01:49:13,479
Speaker 3: It's almost like this that email was listening to Mike

2333
01:49:13,520 --> 01:49:17,040
Speaker 3: Dusseau and I, oh, yeah, you know, about nine o'clock

2334
01:49:17,040 --> 01:49:19,760
Speaker 3: this morning, I was talking about the different thing. I

2335
01:49:19,800 --> 01:49:22,160
Speaker 3: was like, you know how like these random things pop

2336
01:49:22,200 --> 01:49:23,599
Speaker 3: back in the minad. I go, you know, like that

2337
01:49:23,640 --> 01:49:25,640
Speaker 3: guy yesterday that was claiming that I was saying that

2338
01:49:26,840 --> 01:49:29,439
Speaker 3: Drake May didn't win any games, couldn't have been further

2339
01:49:29,439 --> 01:49:31,320
Speaker 3: from the truth. Oh it was the way he said

2340
01:49:31,320 --> 01:49:33,240
Speaker 3: that was what kind of rankled me. Not that he

2341
01:49:33,360 --> 01:49:35,439
Speaker 3: disagreed that they would have had the same record or not,

2342
01:49:37,680 --> 01:49:39,519
Speaker 3: but I think you could make a strong argument that

2343
01:49:39,520 --> 01:49:41,679
Speaker 3: if they had Stafford they might have gone sixteen and one.

2344
01:49:42,680 --> 01:49:44,360
Speaker 3: Because I don't I agree with the email, and I

2345
01:49:44,400 --> 01:49:47,200
Speaker 3: don't see them losing to the Raiders or the Steelers. Now,

2346
01:49:47,240 --> 01:49:50,280
Speaker 3: I just say fourteen and three because Stafford lost to

2347
01:49:50,320 --> 01:49:54,000
Speaker 3: some bad teams. Stafford lost to Carolina, Stafford lost to Atlanta.

2348
01:49:54,080 --> 01:49:56,280
Speaker 3: Like they lost to some bad teams. It happens like

2349
01:49:56,320 --> 01:50:00,160
Speaker 3: you can have a you know, a subpar game that

2350
01:50:00,280 --> 01:50:05,040
Speaker 3: was actually I said, this is all sort of flawed

2351
01:50:05,160 --> 01:50:08,920
Speaker 3: because you don't the game isn't the same. But the

2352
01:50:09,000 --> 01:50:11,320
Speaker 3: Buffalo game, which is exactly the game I brought up

2353
01:50:11,320 --> 01:50:14,720
Speaker 3: to Douce I said, Stafford doesn't win doing that right,

2354
01:50:15,200 --> 01:50:17,960
Speaker 3: doing what Drake May had to do in the second

2355
01:50:17,960 --> 01:50:20,559
Speaker 3: half in Buffalo with some of those plays. Stafford's not

2356
01:50:20,600 --> 01:50:23,559
Speaker 3: capable of making those plays anymore. Now, maybe he wouldn't

2357
01:50:23,560 --> 01:50:28,680
Speaker 3: have had to. Who knows, But I would say, just

2358
01:50:29,720 --> 01:50:33,600
Speaker 3: on the surface, if you had a really good quarterback,

2359
01:50:34,080 --> 01:50:36,519
Speaker 3: you were going to win fourteen games with that schedule.

2360
01:50:37,320 --> 01:50:39,839
Speaker 3: I think Mahomes would have won fourteen games with that schedule.

2361
01:50:39,840 --> 01:50:43,400
Speaker 3: I think Josh Allen would have won fourteen games, you know,

2362
01:50:43,479 --> 01:50:47,720
Speaker 3: if he was playing for the Patriots this year. I

2363
01:50:47,760 --> 01:50:50,559
Speaker 3: don't think that's disrespectful. But if you want to tell

2364
01:50:50,560 --> 01:50:54,080
Speaker 3: me Jacoby Brissett would have won fourteen games, no chance

2365
01:50:54,760 --> 01:50:56,960
Speaker 3: they would not have been over five hundred with Zakoby

2366
01:50:56,960 --> 01:51:00,360
Speaker 3: Brissett playing quarterback. Again, I think you don't just like

2367
01:51:00,439 --> 01:51:03,920
Speaker 3: plug in any stiff. I'm asking the guy who's going

2368
01:51:04,000 --> 01:51:06,280
Speaker 3: to finish second in the MVP voting to Drake May,

2369
01:51:06,320 --> 01:51:07,759
Speaker 3: what would he have done with the Patriots?

2370
01:51:08,040 --> 01:51:12,920
Speaker 1: The only the only thing I would say is with

2371
01:51:13,200 --> 01:51:18,680
Speaker 1: the talent around him, would a quarterback who doesn't have

2372
01:51:18,720 --> 01:51:22,040
Speaker 1: the mobility of May been able to do what to

2373
01:51:22,080 --> 01:51:24,240
Speaker 1: win those games? I think he would have because so

2374
01:51:24,400 --> 01:51:28,040
Speaker 1: often even in games that against these lesser teams. May

2375
01:51:28,120 --> 01:51:30,519
Speaker 1: had to run around No, I know, but did he

2376
01:51:30,640 --> 01:51:33,080
Speaker 1: have to or did he I think he had to?

2377
01:51:33,240 --> 01:51:35,840
Speaker 3: I don't, Okay, I think that that's the way he

2378
01:51:36,000 --> 01:51:39,719
Speaker 3: likes to play. I think that some of the sacks

2379
01:51:39,720 --> 01:51:41,679
Speaker 3: that he took, I don't think. I don't think Stafford

2380
01:51:41,680 --> 01:51:43,439
Speaker 3: would have been sacked nearly as many times as May,

2381
01:51:43,560 --> 01:51:46,360
Speaker 3: all right, because he wouldn't have He wouldn't be holding

2382
01:51:46,360 --> 01:51:48,800
Speaker 3: the ball looking to extend plays like that. Now, he

2383
01:51:48,800 --> 01:51:52,719
Speaker 3: probably would have sacrificed some big plays that May made,

2384
01:51:52,960 --> 01:51:54,440
Speaker 3: but he may have gotten.

2385
01:51:55,800 --> 01:51:56,880
Speaker 4: From the locker room.

2386
01:51:56,960 --> 01:51:59,560
Speaker 20: What was the mood where the player's friendly to that

2387
01:51:59,680 --> 01:52:00,679
Speaker 20: none will look.

2388
01:52:00,640 --> 01:52:04,880
Speaker 1: Like Devin Henry And like, what was it like in

2389
01:52:04,960 --> 01:52:06,320
Speaker 1: the lock.

2390
01:52:09,439 --> 01:52:09,679
Speaker 2: Well?

2391
01:52:09,760 --> 01:52:12,960
Speaker 1: It was busy to live up to your expectations. No,

2392
01:52:13,120 --> 01:52:14,559
Speaker 1: it was, it was it was tough.

2393
01:52:14,600 --> 01:52:17,960
Speaker 6: We went right into Stefan Diggs biggest scrumb I scene,

2394
01:52:17,960 --> 01:52:19,280
Speaker 6: and then it was literally like we got out of

2395
01:52:19,280 --> 01:52:22,880
Speaker 6: digs and then Campbell was already like completely insulated by

2396
01:52:22,920 --> 01:52:25,320
Speaker 6: like five layers of cameras, so I couldn't even get

2397
01:52:25,320 --> 01:52:25,920
Speaker 6: in on him.

2398
01:52:26,400 --> 01:52:26,679
Speaker 11: Uh.

2399
01:52:26,800 --> 01:52:29,080
Speaker 6: You know, we also heard from Robert Splaine talk to him,

2400
01:52:29,120 --> 01:52:32,400
Speaker 6: and we talked to Christian Zalez so start with Spulaine

2401
01:52:33,360 --> 01:52:36,840
Speaker 6: targeting this week to come back and feels good and uh,

2402
01:52:36,960 --> 01:52:39,320
Speaker 6: you know, seemed really excited, ready to lead this.

2403
01:52:39,439 --> 01:52:40,679
Speaker 1: He's ready to look he's back.

2404
01:52:40,479 --> 01:52:43,280
Speaker 6: And ready to lead them because I forgot he said

2405
01:52:43,280 --> 01:52:45,120
Speaker 6: he had two playoff games before. I'm guessing one was

2406
01:52:45,160 --> 01:52:48,840
Speaker 6: with Pittsburgh. But he just said a lot of talking

2407
01:52:48,920 --> 01:52:50,800
Speaker 6: lock room two just about the young guys and there's

2408
01:52:51,080 --> 01:52:53,160
Speaker 6: a lot of guys this would be their first chance

2409
01:52:53,200 --> 01:52:55,280
Speaker 6: to play, and you know, he just said, let's go

2410
01:52:55,280 --> 01:52:58,200
Speaker 6: out there and let it rip. So they all seem excited. Diggs,

2411
01:52:58,240 --> 01:53:02,200
Speaker 6: you know, continues to just calm, cool presence and saying

2412
01:53:02,280 --> 01:53:03,800
Speaker 6: little talking a little about we all we got, we

2413
01:53:03,840 --> 01:53:05,519
Speaker 6: all we need, and that's kind of become the mantra

2414
01:53:05,600 --> 01:53:08,760
Speaker 6: now for the playoffs. So it's it was a lot

2415
01:53:08,760 --> 01:53:11,320
Speaker 6: of energy in the locker room and just from the players,

2416
01:53:11,320 --> 01:53:13,400
Speaker 6: it seems like they're, uh, they're just really excited to

2417
01:53:13,680 --> 01:53:15,760
Speaker 6: host a game at home and to get the crowd going.

2418
01:53:15,800 --> 01:53:17,960
Speaker 6: They were all talking about how excited they were to

2419
01:53:17,960 --> 01:53:20,960
Speaker 6: have the fans, a lot of national people, a lot

2420
01:53:20,960 --> 01:53:23,960
Speaker 6: of really I didn't recognize it. Nobody, nobody, I noted, nobody,

2421
01:53:24,040 --> 01:53:26,360
Speaker 6: like a little soupal or anything like that. Nobody that

2422
01:53:26,400 --> 01:53:28,960
Speaker 6: I recognized, but the NBC people yet, No, not that

2423
01:53:29,000 --> 01:53:30,400
Speaker 6: I've seen. But there were just you know a lot

2424
01:53:30,400 --> 01:53:33,160
Speaker 6: of new faces. Uh, and the other Terrell Williams, the

2425
01:53:33,200 --> 01:53:37,360
Speaker 6: defensive coordinator, walked through as well through and he's.

2426
01:53:36,760 --> 01:53:37,120
Speaker 2: Look at it.

2427
01:53:37,680 --> 01:53:38,160
Speaker 1: Look fine.

2428
01:53:38,240 --> 01:53:40,160
Speaker 6: I mean, you know, he wasn't moving too fast, like

2429
01:53:40,200 --> 01:53:43,280
Speaker 6: he doesn't really. He kind of kind of ambles, but

2430
01:53:43,439 --> 01:53:45,320
Speaker 6: good to see him there. He kind of took note

2431
01:53:45,360 --> 01:53:47,439
Speaker 6: of Will Campbell being surrounded by all the cameras.

2432
01:53:47,560 --> 01:53:50,280
Speaker 1: I remember there was a day when your rookie lineman

2433
01:53:50,320 --> 01:53:53,320
Speaker 1: wouldn't talk to the media. All the talking was done

2434
01:53:53,400 --> 01:53:54,800
Speaker 1: by you know.

2435
01:53:55,840 --> 01:53:58,160
Speaker 3: Rookies in general. Yeah, no, check didn't a lot of

2436
01:53:58,160 --> 01:53:59,120
Speaker 3: a lot of rookies know.

2437
01:53:59,520 --> 01:54:01,920
Speaker 6: And then we'll he's been pretty much every week.

2438
01:54:01,960 --> 01:54:04,439
Speaker 1: He's a spokesman. Yeah. He does really good good at

2439
01:54:04,479 --> 01:54:04,680
Speaker 1: it too.

2440
01:54:04,800 --> 01:54:07,240
Speaker 6: I mean he's just he's got a short can be

2441
01:54:07,280 --> 01:54:08,000
Speaker 6: my favorite player.

2442
01:54:08,080 --> 01:54:08,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

2443
01:54:08,240 --> 01:54:10,920
Speaker 6: He doesn't get himself in trouble trying to overtalk or

2444
01:54:10,920 --> 01:54:13,040
Speaker 6: over explain things. He just you know a little smile,

2445
01:54:13,040 --> 01:54:15,320
Speaker 6: a little southern drawl and says what he says.

2446
01:54:15,360 --> 01:54:17,800
Speaker 1: But but now I want a shopping spree. With him

2447
01:54:17,840 --> 01:54:21,720
Speaker 1: at basketball, you'd be excited, a good way to go

2448
01:54:21,760 --> 01:54:22,439
Speaker 1: about business.

2449
01:54:22,880 --> 01:54:25,800
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, so so good vibes and uh yeah, just

2450
01:54:25,840 --> 01:54:27,080
Speaker 6: a little bit of it. You can just feel the

2451
01:54:27,120 --> 01:54:31,200
Speaker 6: energy kind of up, a little bit of uptick in

2452
01:54:31,240 --> 01:54:32,000
Speaker 6: terms of the vibes.

2453
01:54:32,040 --> 01:54:34,080
Speaker 1: And now would you say the energy is that the

2454
01:54:34,240 --> 01:54:36,840
Speaker 1: energy from the media or the players. Well, that's a

2455
01:54:36,880 --> 01:54:37,320
Speaker 1: good question.

2456
01:54:37,360 --> 01:54:39,760
Speaker 6: Fred I would say probably generated more from the media

2457
01:54:39,880 --> 01:54:41,760
Speaker 6: right now, where it feels like the players are kind

2458
01:54:41,760 --> 01:54:42,560
Speaker 6: of like.

2459
01:54:42,760 --> 01:54:47,120
Speaker 22: Yeah, well, Dig's well Dig specifically, you know, Dick specifically said,

2460
01:54:47,120 --> 01:54:48,920
Speaker 22: you know, he's when you guys talk to me on Wednesday,

2461
01:54:49,000 --> 01:54:51,040
Speaker 22: this is I kind of try to keep it calm

2462
01:54:51,120 --> 01:54:53,120
Speaker 22: during these days and you know then game day I

2463
01:54:53,400 --> 01:54:55,680
Speaker 22: let it rip and let it all out, so, you know,

2464
01:54:55,720 --> 01:54:59,000
Speaker 22: a little reserve, but you could just tell they're holding

2465
01:54:59,040 --> 01:55:00,920
Speaker 22: it back a little bit and there's just you know,

2466
01:55:01,040 --> 01:55:03,520
Speaker 22: there's there's an urgency now that I would say kind

2467
01:55:03,520 --> 01:55:07,760
Speaker 22: of hovers over everything, Okay, Evan Evan, I mean in

2468
01:55:07,800 --> 01:55:09,600
Speaker 22: the scrums, I mean I I it was hard to

2469
01:55:09,680 --> 01:55:13,280
Speaker 22: because there's so much Trald No.

2470
01:55:13,400 --> 01:55:14,320
Speaker 1: I think he held his own.

2471
01:55:14,520 --> 01:55:16,200
Speaker 6: Bart was there to protect him as well, So the

2472
01:55:16,240 --> 01:55:17,440
Speaker 6: two of them banded together.

2473
01:55:18,800 --> 01:55:23,800
Speaker 1: But anybody, did you have to fight anybody?

2474
01:55:23,400 --> 01:55:29,280
Speaker 6: No, no, Lazar fights, but everybody. Everybody's there, all hands

2475
01:55:29,320 --> 01:55:29,880
Speaker 6: on deck today.

2476
01:55:29,920 --> 01:55:32,920
Speaker 1: So I wonder how many of the people that are

2477
01:55:33,000 --> 01:55:38,000
Speaker 1: bothering Evan on the various social platforms are actually people

2478
01:55:38,000 --> 01:55:40,320
Speaker 1: in the media going under home, And I hope that

2479
01:55:40,320 --> 01:55:40,960
Speaker 1: would be great.

2480
01:55:41,040 --> 01:55:43,080
Speaker 6: Like Barth has a burner that he just trolls Evan

2481
01:55:43,120 --> 01:55:45,160
Speaker 6: constantly with, right, that would make sense to me.

2482
01:55:45,480 --> 01:55:49,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, uh so, so good stuff, Yeah, good stuff for sure.

2483
01:55:49,680 --> 01:55:51,360
Speaker 6: You know, I cut out just ten minutes early so

2484
01:55:51,360 --> 01:55:52,880
Speaker 6: I could come back in and share. So I'm sure

2485
01:55:52,880 --> 01:55:54,440
Speaker 6: there'll probably be another scrum or two in there.

2486
01:55:54,480 --> 01:55:58,480
Speaker 1: But yeah, ready to go. Robert splane Landry around you

2487
01:55:58,480 --> 01:55:58,880
Speaker 1: see him?

2488
01:55:58,920 --> 01:56:04,200
Speaker 6: Not see Landry Tonga, did not see Tonga? Okay, But like,

2489
01:56:04,200 --> 01:56:05,920
Speaker 6: like I know, Mike, name some of the guys that

2490
01:56:06,560 --> 01:56:08,000
Speaker 6: sorry brabes that are sick.

2491
01:56:08,240 --> 01:56:11,240
Speaker 1: Uh so, maybe they were with them a lot of

2492
01:56:11,480 --> 01:56:13,440
Speaker 1: part of the media. You have to call them rabes. Okay,

2493
01:56:13,480 --> 01:56:16,000
Speaker 1: thank you. But again, I'm kind of buried in the scrum.

2494
01:56:16,120 --> 01:56:18,000
Speaker 6: So guys are walking through all the time, so it's

2495
01:56:18,120 --> 01:56:20,120
Speaker 6: very possible they walked through and I didn't see them.

2496
01:56:20,120 --> 01:56:22,160
Speaker 6: But I did not see them.

2497
01:56:22,480 --> 01:56:25,280
Speaker 1: Okay, a lot of cameras, a lot of cameras. I mean,

2498
01:56:25,320 --> 01:56:26,800
Speaker 1: it's a fight, playoff time, Freddy.

2499
01:56:26,920 --> 01:56:28,760
Speaker 6: I thought that because like my arm got kind of

2500
01:56:28,800 --> 01:56:31,520
Speaker 6: like sandwich between a girl and a camera, and I

2501
01:56:31,560 --> 01:56:33,960
Speaker 6: was like, I'm gonna precarious get hot here right now.

2502
01:56:34,360 --> 01:56:37,400
Speaker 6: I was very worried about where my hr I was.

2503
01:56:37,680 --> 01:56:39,680
Speaker 6: I was very concerned about that, and then I saw

2504
01:56:39,720 --> 01:56:41,960
Speaker 6: my opportunity. I had to remove my arm from that

2505
01:56:42,040 --> 01:56:45,440
Speaker 6: position because it was I think it's funny if like

2506
01:56:45,520 --> 01:56:48,440
Speaker 6: a media person went down and like you know, Vrabel

2507
01:56:48,480 --> 01:56:49,760
Speaker 6: came out and put hands on them.

2508
01:56:52,440 --> 01:56:54,920
Speaker 1: Rise my son, go forth. By the way, I meant

2509
01:56:54,920 --> 01:56:57,360
Speaker 1: to tell you, I was on one O nine and

2510
01:56:57,720 --> 01:57:00,880
Speaker 1: at your memorial somebody put a wreath made up toilet.

2511
01:57:01,480 --> 01:57:02,080
Speaker 1: I thought that was.

2512
01:57:02,040 --> 01:57:05,120
Speaker 3: Really for the holidays when you're doing this just driving

2513
01:57:05,160 --> 01:57:08,320
