It's a lonely job, though, it's 84 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 2: a lonely job. 85 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not sure, but like it's that. 86 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 6: That's my favorite part though, is to watch ahead of 87 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 6: you know, the other opponent. You know what, what are 88 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 6: the Bills look like? What do the Ravens look like? 89 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 6: You know whatever? That that's that's fun. 90 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 3: All right ahead, all right, so bills coming up. Weather 91 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 3: has changed, uh oh from yesterday to today. All the 92 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 3: precipitation seems to be gone. Oh yeah, a little bit 93 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 3: cooler than it was, but still in the thirties. But 94 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 3: no precipitation during the game. So we're dry. Yeah it's 95 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 3: dry hopefully. 96 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 2: And Evans thinks that that favors Drake. 97 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: May I do the dry weather? Yeah, yeah, sure I do. 98 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 6: I think that. And I'm not saying that he can't, 99 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 6: so it don't make this a big thing. I'm just 100 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 6: saying we haven't seen it. Yet you know, a weather 101 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 6: game in December and January that he goes out there 102 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 6: and plays well and wins. You know, we haven't seen 103 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 6: it yet, Whereas I've seen that a million times with 104 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 6: Josh Allen. You know, Josh Allen, we saw last week, right, 105 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 6: I played in the bad weather in Buffalo and one 106 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 6: played extremely well plenty of times. So I just think that, 107 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:41,720 Speaker 6: you know, this team's that's just a little bit of 108 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 6: an unknown, is how they're going to handle the condition. 109 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 7: I think it's one of the big subplots of just 110 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 7: generally the Bills have been here, they've been around for 111 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 7: a while, They've played in big games. 112 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 1: You know, they're used to this. 113 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 7: We're trying to figure out when the last time the 114 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 7: Patriots played a game this big in their own stadium. 115 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 7: So I think it's an element of unknown as well 116 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 7: for Drake May and you know, and just the team 117 00:04:59,320 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 7: in general. 118 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: Young team. 119 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 7: You know, a team that had turnover, but they haven't 120 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 7: really been in this kind of pressure. 121 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 2: Situe at all nowhere. 122 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 7: So how do they how do they you know, pull 123 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,160 Speaker 7: together and come out of a bye and you know, 124 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 7: start this thing back up again. That's that's what I 125 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 7: felt like was kind of a theme we'll hear from 126 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 7: Vrabel here in a little bit. But I think that's, 127 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 7: you know, getting that energy back up, that energy that 128 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 7: you came onto the field with and Monday night football, 129 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 7: you know, how can you get that going again. 130 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 3: We talked about it yesterday. Whether or not it's relevant, 131 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 3: I think it is a little bit. Vrabel is six 132 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 3: and o as a head coach coming out of the by. 133 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 3: I think it matters a little bit. Ye shows that 134 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 3: he keeps his team focused, you know, whichever team. 135 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 2: You know. 136 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 3: Obviously we're talking about the Titans, and you know it's 137 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 3: not exactly like they were world beaters, but he had 138 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 3: them six and o coming out of the by. 139 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,679 Speaker 6: And they played they barth As the all the numbers 140 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 6: on this he they they've like blown teams out in 141 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,039 Speaker 6: Tennessee off the by, like won by multiple scores in 142 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 6: some of those games too. Now I don't know all 143 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 6: the context of know what teams they were playing and 144 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 6: it was her and all. I don't know all the context, 145 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 6: but they've He's done very very well out of the buy. 146 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 2: So so we got that going for us. 147 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was reminded a little bit. 148 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 7: I remember a storyline being the Varibel's teams didn't play 149 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 7: great out of the like training camp, out of the 150 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 7: season openers, that his teams had had some stumbles there. 151 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: So I'm not just interesting, more interested. 152 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 7: In what he establishes here and you know, learns from 153 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 7: that first experience. 154 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 1: And yeah, there are things that take good and bad. 155 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 2: Yep, yep. What else do we have to talk about today? 156 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 1: I'm bucked on the Bills. 157 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 8: So one of the things, you know, and I go 158 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 8: and do my show later Fred on Wednesdays. Yeah, one 159 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 8: of the things that I know that they're going to 160 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 8: be talking about today is the points spread, and not 161 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,479 Speaker 8: just in New England, you know, So just so people 162 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 8: know right now, I know this is all this stuff 163 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 8: is subject to change. But I think the latest number 164 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 8: that DraftKings has is the Bills are favored in this 165 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 8: game by one and a half, which I found a 166 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 8: little surprising, to be honest, respect And then I looked 167 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:05,479 Speaker 8: and I saw Denver is at home against Green Bay 168 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 8: and they're also underdogs, I believe, by two and a half. 169 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 8: So the Packers are favorite in that game. So clearly 170 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 8: the bookies, the book makers, the houses, the sharps, the touts, oh. 171 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 2: By the way. 172 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 3: They told me they have a new nickname for me, 173 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 3: Freddy Fields. But after this week, maybe I don't. 174 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: Want to go one around the office. I'm not sure. 175 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: I'm not up on admin level. Here comes Freddy Fields. 176 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: I think HR may want to work. Hey, guys, what's 177 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: what I did? 178 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 8: Find it a little interesting and Evan, I know you 179 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 8: know you, Yeah, I agree with you. 180 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: I disrespect. I think I was a little surprised by it. 181 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 8: And you know, these things and fred will make fun 182 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 8: of me because these things don't generally. 183 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: Move my needle one way. You want to know what 184 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: moves your need, but Freddie Fields moves his need. 185 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 8: Look at the Patriots have won ten in a row, 186 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 8: the Broncos have won ten in a row, and it 187 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 8: seems like people still don't necessarily believe in though. 188 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: Isn't this just like the established hierarchy. 189 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 2: That's what it is. 190 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 6: Gran Bay has been good for the wild Buffalo has 191 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 6: been good. 192 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 3: I get it, and I love to play the disrespect card, 193 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 3: but I've been thinking about it. I think this is 194 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 3: more about respect for Josh Allen than it is disrespect. 195 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 8: For the patri Don't get me wrong, I'm not up 196 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 8: in arms over I get it. It's not something I'm 197 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 8: going to lose any sleepover, but I did find it 198 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 8: interesting and I would be curious to see if it 199 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 8: because they set the lines based on their analytics, and 200 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 8: there's no question that they have some intangible stuff like 201 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 8: Evan just mentioned, you know, the pedigree of Josh Allen 202 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 8: and what Green Bay has done. 203 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 1: That's certainly part of this. 204 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 8: But if it's a bad line quote unquote, I would 205 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 8: expect it to shift in you know, the Patriots, you know, 206 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 8: because of the money, the money the people would be 207 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 8: betting the Patriots. If you think the Patriot's going to 208 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 8: win this game. I'm getting points at home, the Patriots 209 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 8: eleven ten game winning streak, I'm at home. I would 210 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 8: think a lot of money would come in on the 211 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 8: Patriots in that line would slide, you know, closer to 212 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 8: even if not the Patriots being favored by the time 213 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 8: kickoff happens on Sunday. So I think that's something to watch, 214 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:11,559 Speaker 8: something to monitor. 215 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:12,319 Speaker 1: Yeah. 216 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, and there's no doubt that Buffalo just looking at 217 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 6: it up now, it's not by much, but Buffalo is 218 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 6: tenth in DVA right now and the Patriots are fourteenth. 219 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 6: You know, the Dvoa hasn't loved the Patriots really all year. 220 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 6: A lot of that's because of their schedule. It just 221 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 6: for schedule and strength of schedule. But you know, green 222 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:35,959 Speaker 6: Bay's fifth, you know, Denver is down here in the middle, 223 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 6: you know. 224 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 1: So it's just these teams that. 225 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 6: Haven't done it yet, that haven't had the proof of 226 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,679 Speaker 6: concept that the analytics, I think do probably say that 227 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 6: Buffalo and Green Bay are a little bit better than 228 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 6: the Patriots and the Broncos despite the records, and that's 229 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 6: how you get it. 230 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:53,200 Speaker 1: I feel like that's how it should be. 231 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 7: I mean, I have a lot of respect for what 232 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 7: Josh Allen and the Bills have done over the last 233 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 7: few years. I mean we've gotten you know, people clap 234 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 7: back at us for loving them too much, but how 235 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 7: can you not respect the player that Josh Allen is 236 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 7: And like I feel like a little bit of an 237 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 7: underdog going in whether the sharps say it or not. 238 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 7: And this is on the Patriots to you know, beat 239 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 7: the five time defending division champs. 240 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,080 Speaker 3: And sometimes these point spreads are you know, just way 241 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 3: off and they're proven wrong. 242 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 2: But most of the time money talks, they're they're pretty 243 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 2: much on the nose and that's why they make a 244 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:24,079 Speaker 2: lot of money. 245 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 7: As someone who's lasting the picks against the spread, I 246 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 7: can I can confirm it's difficult. 247 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is, it is, you know. 248 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 3: But uh so I'm not I'm not up in arms 249 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 3: about the Patriots being a point and a half. 250 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 8: No, I am surprised, though. Yeah, I think they're gonna 251 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,719 Speaker 8: bail use it. You know, Rabeles is no doubt in 252 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 8: my mind. 253 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 6: I don't know if he's gonna get up there and 254 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 6: say we're yeah. 255 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: But that's going to see the spread. 256 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 3: This to me more importantly, if I'm the head coach, 257 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 3: this is your chance to really prove yourself and who 258 00:10:58,440 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 3: we are. 259 00:10:59,280 --> 00:10:59,440 Speaker 5: You know. 260 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 3: We talked about identity, you know, and we're We've done 261 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 3: a good job so far establishing us, but this takes 262 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 3: us to the next level. Were the next step in 263 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 3: establishing our identity. A championship potential game in December that 264 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 3: we can win and if we do, we're the AFC 265 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 3: East champs. This, this is this is important because of that. 266 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 6: There's just it's such a different feel from yeah, you 267 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 6: won the division, but it's because you beat the Jets 268 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 6: and the Dolphins in the last two weeks of the 269 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 6: season and you won the tiebreaker. 270 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: Right against Buffaloe versus. You took it. 271 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 3: You know, you against against the team that is the 272 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 3: raining champs five. 273 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 6: Times in a row and you went out there and 274 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 6: you beat them twice in the same season and you 275 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 6: took it. That's just from a morales standpoint, I don't 276 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 6: know how that you can't see that that is just wild. 277 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's just the situation of the first game. They 278 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 7: were four and oh they were you know, streaking. You 279 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 7: beat them in their place on a you know, a 280 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 7: night where they were pretty juiced up national time television. 281 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 7: And now they're playing good again. They're you know, they 282 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 7: have their holes, but they're surging right now. This is 283 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 7: when Josh Allen knows it's his time to shine. And 284 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 7: that's you know, those two wins, when you look at them, 285 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 7: even in context, they're they're impressive. If they're able to 286 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 7: pull it off, that's I mean, this is everything you 287 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 7: could ask for, you know, a chance to do it 288 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 7: against the team that has owned the. 289 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 3: Den and and you know, not to make excuses, but 290 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 3: if if you do win this game, you've stopped Josh 291 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 3: Allen and his offense without Milton Williams. You know, so 292 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 3: you're you're manned up and you know made you know, 293 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 3: gut By without your best defensive player, and I think 294 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:37,839 Speaker 3: that means something too sure, you know. 295 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I just think it just means a lot in 296 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: terms of how. 297 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 8: You don't think know about how they win the game. 298 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 8: But like, I mean, everybody's missing players. 299 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 3: Like I know, but like and some and some overcome 300 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 3: that and some don't know. I want to be one 301 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 3: of those teams that overcome it. 302 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 7: Okay, yeah, I'm just trying to think back. I mean, 303 00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 7: remember every time when during the Patriots dynasty run, if 304 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 7: where they lost like to Buffalo early in the season 305 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 7: and then they come back and they're like, okay, you 306 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 7: know in December, like now now is when we you know, 307 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 7: when they. 308 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 1: Lost thirty one to nothing to Buffalo and three. 309 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 9: I mean that's good, that's a good uh. 310 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: That was the mind. But they had the book end. 311 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 3: Right, they got Lawyer Malloy, the team was. 312 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 8: I just think those are different situations because those were 313 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 8: generally not good teams and this is two good teams. 314 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,559 Speaker 1: You know, like once in a while, the Patriots got upset. 315 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 8: I mean I think it happened three times in the 316 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 8: twenty whatever years by Buffalo. 317 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 1: Ryan Patrick, he was like twenty six. There weren't very 318 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: many times where Buffalo look. 319 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 8: One of the times that they had a chance was 320 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:41,239 Speaker 8: with Josh Allen on that Saturday afternoon game here in Foxborough. 321 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 8: The Bills made the playoffs that year. They were actually 322 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 8: pretty good, and they had a chance to come and 323 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,319 Speaker 8: win the game here and they fell short. It was 324 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,439 Speaker 8: a good game, deal. It was kind of like when 325 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 8: you're learning nineteen right, Yeah, I think it was nineteen. 326 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,959 Speaker 1: Thirty three and three. It was against Buffalo. 327 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 8: I think it was a twenty four to seventeen game. 328 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 8: It might have been been earlier than that. I don't 329 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 8: I don't remember exactly what the year was. But it 330 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,119 Speaker 8: was kind of like, oh, they didn't just go away 331 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 8: like it kind of expected the Patriots to roll in 332 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 8: this game. 333 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 1: And it was a good game. Yeah. 334 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 8: It was a little back and forth, and you can 335 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,719 Speaker 8: kind of see Buffalo was getting better. But usually if 336 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 8: the Patriots would you say, three times three times Buffalo, 337 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 8: usually the Bill stunk. So it was like, okay, yeah, 338 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 8: that was cute, you beat us, you know, but we'll 339 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 8: smacking around the second time. 340 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 3: Wasn't there a stretch you know before Josh Allen that 341 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 3: we were beating them, But there was a stretch of 342 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 3: games that were like either one point or overtime or 343 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 3: something like that. 344 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 6: They had some issues at the end of you know, 345 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 6: Brady beginning of McDermott with the Bill's defense. Bill's defense 346 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 6: is always given this passing system. I think a lot 347 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 6: of it has to do with how much Buffalo disguises 348 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 6: and how much the Patriots adjust their routes based off coverage. 349 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 6: The Bill's defenses had like Brady had, I don't know 350 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 6: we call the clunkers, but like Brady had some like 351 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 6: non Brady game it was like not throwing for three 352 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 6: fifty and five touchdowns against Buffalo. They had some struggles 353 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 6: against the Bills. I don't know what the scores were. 354 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 8: But I don't think there were a ton of close games. 355 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: Just a tiny bit of breaking news. Josh Allen AFC 356 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: player of the Week. 357 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 2: Yeah that makes there you go, all right, okay. 358 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, you asked more respect all the break gat makes 359 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 3: it that much better when we beat the raining player. 360 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 2: Of the week. 361 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 7: Well, I sure don't ever remember any of the games 362 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 7: happening like Patriots getting upset by an NFC opponent in 363 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 7: the early season and then having to like hold serve 364 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 7: on the road like I don't remember that ever happened. 365 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 7: I remember Buffalo getting some wins in Buffalo. I remember 366 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 7: the Jets getting some wins in New York early in 367 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 7: the season. But then it always came back to the Patriots. 368 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 7: Summers never good blue doors, you know, and that. 369 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 8: You know, there was a couple, you know, that little 370 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 8: stretch there where the Jets were cute with Rex Ryan, 371 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 8: you know, nine to eleven, and they went to a 372 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 8: couple of conference championship games. 373 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 1: They were I mean, they were formidable. 374 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 2: What about when Rex ryanders with the Bills. 375 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 8: So Rex Ryan beat the Patriots with the Bills, but 376 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 8: it was with Jacoby Brissett play board about. 377 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 1: Sixteen's it was Rex Ryan thing with the Bills and 378 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 1: not go didn't work. 379 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:06,800 Speaker 7: No, no, yeah, I think the one you might have 380 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 7: been talking about, Paul was December twenty first, twenty nineteen, 381 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 7: was a twenty four to seventeen play the game by 382 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 7: the Patriots. 383 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: The Patriots are twelve and three, the Bills were ten 384 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 1: and five. 385 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 8: After that one, that was a rare time that they 386 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 8: were both pretty good, Damn Patriot. It wasn't trying to. 387 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 8: You know, Salvage is split. The Patriots won both games 388 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 8: against Buffalo that year, but Buffalo you could see, was 389 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 8: getting better with this kid who looked like he was 390 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 8: starting to figure things. 391 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: So Sean Brown fifty three yards. 392 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 5: Yeah. 393 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 3: So I don't want to digress too much, but I 394 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 3: was on my drive and I was thinking of, you know, 395 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 3: Patriots through the dynasty, and I have a total blank. 396 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 8: I was thinking about Patriots through the dynasty. 397 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 2: I was I have a total blank on two thousand 398 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 2: and five? What happened then? What happened in two thousand. 399 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 7: Bruski had the stroke and then they had to replace 400 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 7: their linebackers. So I think they lost uh Rabel moved middle, 401 00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 7: Brown just didn't. 402 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 1: Work, came in. 403 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 7: I think ty Law had left as well, So they 404 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 7: had a sante. But I remember that their their defense 405 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 7: was just terrible. 406 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:08,120 Speaker 2: Remember that they lost. 407 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 1: To the Chargers. Yeah, they beat the Jacket. 408 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 7: The Jets might have been I want to say the Jaggs, 409 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 7: and that William McGinnis had a couple of sacks and 410 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 7: broke the sack record. 411 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: That was Deion Branch still on that team or did 412 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: he get traded. He was that was a big last 413 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:25,640 Speaker 1: So that was his last they made. 414 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 2: They lost Denver.

And if 515 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 2: we do lose, it's not the end of the world. 516 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 2: The show will go on. 517 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 3: So Fred go grab your brunts and get out your 518 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 3: snow blower and blow off some steam. 519 00:21:58,200 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 1: Okay, I have a small rant. 520 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 7: I get a smaller a little bit, a little bit 521 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 7: of ran towards you. No, it's funny, and then I 522 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 7: fully accept that. I fully accept, you know, being a 523 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 7: little like worried about what does it mean? But I 524 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,360 Speaker 7: was just I was laughing thinking about it, because when 525 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 7: we talk about Paul shows like this is what it 526 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 7: is they live for, that they live for knowing all 527 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 7: these things, we know, all the talking points they're gonna 528 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 7: hit if they lose this Buffalo game. 529 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: So it's like, you know, one hand, you make fun 530 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 1: of those people, but. 531 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 7: At the same time, you need those people because those 532 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 7: are the ones who are gonna hate. Listen to felgroom 533 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 7: As after the game and be like, I don't want 534 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 7: to hear it. 535 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,479 Speaker 1: Tells me you up, the schedule was soft and up. 536 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 1: Josh Allen still owns you, You know, like those are 537 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: the things that are beat into your head, like you 538 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,159 Speaker 1: know it, right. I don't know how much that matters 539 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 1: to the people that actually matter, like the coach play. 540 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, No, it might a little bit. 541 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 6: Because like the soft schedule thing is a narrative and 542 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 6: if you go out into Buffalo and you're kind of 543 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 6: outclassed by the Bills on Sunday, then still you're it. 544 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 1: Just kind of proves them right, right, they could do that. 545 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 8: Yeah, But I agree with everything you guys are saying, 546 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 8: and I understand where Fred's coming from. I have a 547 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 8: feeling that this is going to be what we're talking 548 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 8: about on my show. Okay, So I do get it, 549 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 8: and you're right. I just would say, like, if you're 550 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 8: a Patriots fan and you believe, do you believe in 551 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:20,120 Speaker 8: what you're seeing, then what do you care? Like why 552 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,920 Speaker 8: this is the thing about Patriots fans I'll never get 553 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:27,880 Speaker 8: is why they care so much about the noise. And yes, 554 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 8: Evan's right, they will have This will be perfect fodder 555 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,119 Speaker 8: for Mike and Tony and everybody else that believes that 556 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 8: they're not as good as the record is right, right, 557 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 8: But if you believe they are as good as the record, 558 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 8: is you'll be disappointed that. 559 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 1: They lost, for sure. But maybe if you're but your 560 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 1: mind changes. But if you're what exactly what you ad 561 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: your mind changes with more information. If you're worried, that's 562 00:23:57,600 --> 00:23:58,360 Speaker 1: what you're worried about. 563 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 8: You're not worried about losing the game because of what 564 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 8: felgrit ma is are going to say, you're worried about 565 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 8: not being as good as you. 566 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 2: Think they are or being told right. 567 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 3: But Connor Aganster says of a topic, if we lose, 568 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,440 Speaker 3: will people start to spiral what we all saying. The 569 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 3: hope is we're that we're playing meaningful football games in December. 570 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 3: News flash, that's what this is. We got what we 571 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 3: wish for. 572 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 2: Absolutely, Paul, you're the man. 573 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, the colpost moved. Yeah, and that's and that's we're 574 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 7: sitting right now. And that's I think what is a 575 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,679 Speaker 7: little maybe scary is the word. It's just like it's 576 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 7: all right there for the taking. Like, you win four games, 577 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 7: you're gonna win the division. There's a good chance maybe 578 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 7: you get a buye, you know, And so those thoughts 579 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 7: in the preseason of be great, they win eight games, 580 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 7: like eight nine games, that would be amazing. Now it's like, no, 581 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 7: they're already at eleven soust Accordingly, we've talked about the 582 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 7: opportunity that could exist this year with the teams that 583 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:48,880 Speaker 7: are going to make the playoffs. 584 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 8: You imagine if they go thirteen and four, there will 585 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 8: be people and I think they will be right, that 586 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 8: will be disappointed. Yeah, yeah, yeah, But I think there's 587 00:24:57,800 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 8: I lose twice, like you lose Sunday like that. 588 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 1: Listen, we all know Buffalo's good. You guys upset it. 589 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 1: Buffalo's good. 590 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 8: They could come in the pictures, could play a really 591 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,640 Speaker 8: good game on Sunday and lose because Buffalo just plays 592 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,879 Speaker 8: a little bit better. But if you lose twice, that 593 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 8: means you lost to a team with a losing record 594 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,639 Speaker 8: in one of the last three games. People are going 595 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 8: to be disappointed. Imagine that if you go thirteen and 596 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 8: four and when the people are going to be disappointed. 597 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 6: I just think there's also a little bit of like 598 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:28,679 Speaker 6: twenty twenty one PTSD of like, yeah, sure they were 599 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 6: not in four in twenty twenty one. Then they lose 600 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,639 Speaker 6: to Buffalo, then they they completely to me. 601 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 2: That's all about Matt Jones first, Drake Man, there is no. 602 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 6: But I think that that that's a pattern, right, that 603 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 6: you're just trying to avoid. But I agree, I think 604 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 6: that the difference is is like big picture, I'm with Paul, 605 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 6: like I have no concerns about where they're headed. 606 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 1: Big picture me too. 607 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,439 Speaker 6: But in terms of the twenty twenty five season, losing 608 00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 6: to Buffalo on Sunday does change You're you get a 609 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 6: little bit want to have a warm seat, You're a 610 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 6: little type. 611 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 8: But like, like, let's flip this to the Buffalo thing. 612 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 8: I was listening to my show yesterday because our good 613 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 8: friend Greg Greg was on. Greg Bdard was on, and 614 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 8: at the end they give him us all right, Greg 615 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 8: gave you know, give us, you know, sixty seconds on 616 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 8: the game. You know, I like the Patriots in this 617 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 8: spot coming off the bye I think they should get 618 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,639 Speaker 8: some personnel back. And I just you know, Buffalo is 619 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 8: just not that good. And I just I just look 620 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 8: at it and I'm like, Okay, so Buffalo's nine and 621 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 8: four right now. And I'm not telling you that every 622 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 8: game has looked great, but a lot of their games 623 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 8: have looked they've looked kind of like vintage Buffalo. I mean, like, 624 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,360 Speaker 8: you know, Caroline has given everybody fits to your point, 625 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 8: and they beat him like forty to nine on the road. Right, 626 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 8: So let's just not make this Buffalo team out to be, 627 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 8: you know, terrible underachievers. 628 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: Right, so they're nine and four. 629 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,360 Speaker 8: The game that they played in week five in Buffalo, 630 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 8: let's just say for arguments, you can't do this, it's 631 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 8: a hypothetical. But let's just say the game unfold is 632 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 8: exactly the same way. And that play that Drake made 633 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,880 Speaker 8: in the last drive when he almost shut it out, 634 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 8: let's say he got stripsacked and Buffalo wins twenty three 635 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 8: to twenty. So now Buffalo instead of being nine and 636 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 8: four is ten and three, and the Patriots instead of 637 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,919 Speaker 8: being eleven and two is ten and three. Is Buffalo 638 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:25,160 Speaker 8: now good because they made one play that they didn't 639 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 8: make in that game? 640 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:27,800 Speaker 1: Is Buffalo? Does that make Buffalo a good team? 641 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 11: Now? 642 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: Buffalo is good? 643 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 8: You know what I'm saying, Like, that's the difference between 644 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:36,880 Speaker 8: the teams right now is Drake made an unbelievable play 645 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 8: on the last drive to set up a field goal 646 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 8: and they won the game. That's the difference between Buffalo 647 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 8: being good or bad. 648 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 3: And I can pretty much guarante I can't buy that 649 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 3: I can pretty much guarantee that this game will come 650 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 3: down to a few plays, and. 651 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 8: If it does and the Patriots don't win it, I'm 652 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 8: not going to be shook as a Patriots fan. To 653 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 8: Evan's point, if Josh Allen does what he did in 654 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 8: twenty one and they don't make them punt and the 655 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 8: game's not overly competitive, that might change my opinion of 656 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 8: the twenty five Patriots. Not of Drake may and what's 657 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 8: going on with Mike Vabel and going forward, but the 658 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 8: twenty five. The twenty five outlook might change. 659 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 1: This is the worst Buffalo team that they will face 660 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:18,880 Speaker 1: in quite some time. 661 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 2: I agree. 662 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,160 Speaker 1: This is not vulnerable. 663 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 6: This is not as good as they've been, especially defensively. Offensively, 664 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 6: they're still lost. 665 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,639 Speaker 8: The numbers are like better than the defense is in 666 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 8: my opinion. Yeah, I keep reading about their past defense 667 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,639 Speaker 8: is ranked X or whatever, and I'm just like, I 668 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 8: watched them every weekend. Doesn't never look like they could 669 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:37,359 Speaker 8: stop anybody. 670 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 6: Well, this is why things like DVOA help, because they 671 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 6: just for these types of things. They're seventeenth in past DVOA, 672 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 6: they're twenty second. This is the worst by DVA as 673 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 6: actually talking to Aaron about this, Aaron shats, this is 674 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 6: the worst Bill's defense of the McDermott era. That's nine seasons, 675 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 6: like you're going back to twenty seventeen. So they they're offensively, 676 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 6: they're top five and everything. They're top five and points 677 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 6: their top five in PA DVOA explosive player, like they're 678 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 6: they're a great offense, and he's great, Allen's great. Defensively, 679 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 6: this isn't as good as they've been. And I still 680 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 6: don't think there even though their offenses producing, I think 681 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 6: that's a lot because they have the m v P 682 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 6: playing quarterback, and I don't think their weapons are as 683 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 6: good as they have been. 684 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 8: No, and that they have been particularly hit with the 685 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 8: injuries on defense. Yeah, you know, and some of the 686 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 8: moves that they made, Like who's the guy from the 687 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 8: Rams that can never pronounce his name, that he came 688 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 8: and he played one great game against Kansas City and 689 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 8: blew out his achilles, that hate guy h oct Okay, 690 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 8: he was really good in that game when he blew 691 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 8: out his achilles. 692 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 1: He was really good for the Rams last year. 693 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 8: Yeah, like they were expected. That was a big move 694 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 8: that they made in the off season. He was suspended 695 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 8: when they got him, and then he comes back and 696 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 8: plays really well. He's out, you know, Milano is kind 697 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 8: of always hurt, so I'm not you know, but he's 698 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:57,000 Speaker 8: been in that lineup at all of her excellent interior 699 00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 8: defensive lineman. 700 00:29:57,840 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 1: He's been out for a while now. 701 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 6: Harston's there, first round pick or or least I forget 702 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 6: where exactly they picked him, but the corner and. 703 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 8: When he came back, he made an immediate impact for them. 704 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 8: He's missed some time. 705 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 1: Bernard Torell. 706 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 8: Bernard is a really active He's kind of like a 707 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 8: Robert Spallaine type linebacker, like a smaller athletic guy, but 708 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 8: he makes a lot of plays with them. 709 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 1: He's been in and out of the lineup. 710 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. 711 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, but this has been a really good specifically really 712 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 6: good pass defense in Buffalo for like the last this 713 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 6: whole run for the Bills, and they just they're they're 714 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 6: not as good there and they've had a lot of 715 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 6: trouble outside of Christian Benford, like they haven't really found 716 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 6: the right mix at safety. 717 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 1: White. 718 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:42,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, what he was right? 719 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 5: Uh real? 720 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 7: Because did you guys hapen to see a keep to 721 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 7: leave it all yesterday online? I'm not saying that the 722 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 7: content like what he said I necessarily agree with. But 723 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 7: he was talking about the Texas, and you know, just 724 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 7: in that draw that he's got, and he's like, man, 725 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 7: tex is they gonna think let the fox throw and. 726 00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 9: Get popped like he's just talking like McDaniel's seen it all. 727 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 7: They don't go that defense gonna get them all the 728 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,520 Speaker 7: way to Foxville then they get him back, right. 729 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 1: It was just it was more about not the context 730 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: of what he said. It's just more the way he 731 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 1: says it. It's just hilarious. 732 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 8: Shouldn't that be what happens? Like the seventh seed if 733 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 8: they go to Foxborough is the two seed? 734 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 1: Should they? 735 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 2: They're playing better now than the beginning of the seed. 736 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 2: So I don't know. I have a lot of respect 737 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 2: for what Texans. 738 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 6: No, I think the Texans are going to be. I 739 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 6: think the Texans are going to win that division, and 740 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 6: I think that it's that could happen. I think the 741 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 6: Texans are going to win the division. The Bills will 742 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 6: be the five seed, Like everybody's worried right now because 743 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 6: the Bills are the Texans could be the seventh seed 744 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,760 Speaker 6: playing the two Patriots set. You know here but I 745 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 6: think ultimately will be like Jacksonville or. 746 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 1: We're going to be the number of or whatever. 747 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 7: So I sorry, Fred, just one last thing, I just 748 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 7: I just it was a nice reminder that Josh McDaniels 749 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 7: has seen it all and so, you know, these good 750 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 7: defenses that we talk about. Sure, I respect these defenses, 751 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 7: but at the same time, you've got a guy that 752 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:56,600 Speaker 7: has faced every kind of defense there is. And whether 753 00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 7: or not they execute that's a different thing. But I 754 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 7: feel like, no matter who they play, Josh. 755 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 1: McDaniels will have a good plan. 756 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 3: Dan Wright, sin, is it fair to say if we 757 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 3: win this game we can categorize it as an official 758 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 3: we've arrived game? 759 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 2: Well, I think it depends on what you want the 760 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 2: destination to be. 761 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 7: I mean, yeah, I would say the destination is are 762 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 7: you going to be a consistent year in and year 763 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 7: out contender for the Super Bowl? 764 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 1: And I don't know if I go that far yet, 765 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: but mane. 766 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 9: Of that division and it is a great you know, 767 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 9: but you know you need to see some consistency to it. 768 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 7: There have been flashing the PAN teams, like, you know, 769 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 7: did Washington arrive last year or have they not arrived? 770 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 1: Like I mean, I still think they're, you know, a 771 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: good team when they're healthy. 772 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 7: But you know, it's just to do what the Patriots 773 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 7: did in the twenty and twenty tens of consistently every year. 774 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 1: I mean, that's nobody tells that. You know, if you 775 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: could get on a five year run where you're consistently 776 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 1: that's great. You know, that's that's actually. 777 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 2: Win the game for me. It's where we continue to 778 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 2: be on the road to arriving. 779 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 1: You know, Like, I don't Washington didn't win their division, 780 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 1: right for this year, You've arrived. 781 00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 2: We've already arrived. 782 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 8: I don't know what it says going for you know, 783 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 8: but I like you guys have said, I I mean, 784 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 8: I don't know how you cannot be optimistic about them. 785 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I already believe, right, just get the title. 786 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 7: You know, you guys say, oh, it's it's kind of 787 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 7: like gonna happen for sure. I just I need to 788 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 7: see it, like that needs to be get to the playoffs. 789 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 7: We'll see what happens. But like, just to come out 790 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 7: of this season with a division title, I think that's 791 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 7: just a great thing to fall back on. 792 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,120 Speaker 8: You. I can't imagine how I would try to console 793 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 8: you if something happens in disaster strikes and they somehow 794 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:30,480 Speaker 8: find a way to lose three of their last four. 795 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 7: H oh, I know, but but like, but but but 796 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 7: off the let me play wimpy two right now, Like 797 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 7: loose to Lamar Jackson and Tua, who you've only beaten once. 798 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 1: I mean, it's not crazy to think that they could 799 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 1: possibly lose. They're lucky that the Baltimore game doesn't really matter. 800 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 8: Yeah, I look at Baltimore right now. I say something 801 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 8: crazy has to happen for you lose that. But both 802 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 8: the way they look at. 803 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 6: The game itself doesn't actually really matter, Like if they 804 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 6: lose to the Bills on Sunday, the only games that 805 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 6: matter are the two division games at the end of 806 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:00,560 Speaker 6: the year. If you all you got to do is 807 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:02,800 Speaker 6: beat the Jets and the Dolphins and you win the 808 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 6: division even if you lose to Baltimore. 809 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: So true. 810 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:10,400 Speaker 6: Like I'm with you with Dolphins though, because the Dolphins 811 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 6: are frisky, they're six and seven, they're in it. 812 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,880 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, if they if that week, see what it 813 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:16,919 Speaker 1: looks like after this week. 814 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,920 Speaker 6: If Week eighteen is a meaningful game for both teams, 815 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,879 Speaker 6: and the Dolphins have something to play for in that game, right, 816 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 6: and that that becomes a big spot and you'd have. 817 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:28,400 Speaker 9: To lose two divisional games at home, which. 818 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 1: Is you know, it's easy to do. I mean there's games. 819 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:34,440 Speaker 1: I mean, there are always battles. 820 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:35,919 Speaker 6: You just don't want it to be a big spot 821 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,959 Speaker 6: against Miami. No, you've seen you've seen good Patriots teams, 822 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 6: I mean twenty nineteen. Yeah, opportunity and lay it, lay 823 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 6: a turn in the last game. 824 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 7: I mean, it's I mean, I don't think you win 825 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 7: that one game over to and you know, but it's 826 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 7: like a reminder, like. 827 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 1: That's the only time you've beaten them. I don't know, 828 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 1: we'll see what that team looks like. 829 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 2: I don't know. 830 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:54,439 Speaker 1: I feel like the Jets. I'm not worried. 831 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:55,880 Speaker 7: I feel like the about the Jets, the way you 832 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,799 Speaker 7: feel the right, like there's no way, but well, if 833 00:34:58,840 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 7: I still get PTSD. 834 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:04,240 Speaker 1: Just looking at the Ravens uniforms, they're good. The Jets 835 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 1: with Brady, I can lose to the Ravens, okay, but. 836 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 2: It's all part of the thing. 837 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:08,839 Speaker 12: Though. 838 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 9: It's like you lose one, then you lose a game, 839 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 9: it didn't matter. 840 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 1: Well, you lost two in a row. 841 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 8: Now you got to come back a couple on the 842 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 8: road games in twenty one to like Indianapolis and Buffalo, 843 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:22,239 Speaker 8: and you're like, oh, that's okay, continue, and then you 844 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 8: lost the game you didn't expect to lose. 845 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:28,359 Speaker 6: And also it also hurts that the Patriots last four 846 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 6: games are all in the AFC, so the Bills are 847 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 6: Their toughest game other than the Patriots is the Eagles, 848 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 6: but it's an NFC game, so that's not going to 849 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 6: be part of the time, and that's not tough part 850 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 6: of the tie breaker. So it goes head to head, 851 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 6: then it will go division record, and then I believe 852 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 6: it goes conference record. 853 00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 1: I actually think that for the division. I think that's 854 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,839 Speaker 1: the order. There's a conference before Common. I don't those 855 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:55,759 Speaker 1: two are. I don't know which way those two. 856 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,399 Speaker 2: Any Common comes first, but I don't know. I'm not sure. 857 00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 3: All Right, A five five past five hundred is the 858 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,360 Speaker 3: hot line. Let's see what you have to say.

First of all, they're all 888 00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:15,880 Speaker 6: football players, so they all limp, Like all of them 889 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 6: have a little bit like a weird gait, especially the 890 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,719 Speaker 6: veteran guys because they've been playing for so long. So 891 00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 6: like I'm not going to like micro analyze like his 892 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 6: his gait, like how is he limping? 893 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:27,360 Speaker 5: Is he? 894 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:27,800 Speaker 2: I don't know. 895 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:29,400 Speaker 7: I did it with Will Campbell when I saw him 896 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 7: in the locker, so I'm like, he looks fine, get 897 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 7: him out there. 898 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,279 Speaker 1: The one guy I will say that looked fine was 899 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 1: Jared Wilson. 900 00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 6: Jared Wilson as soon as we saw him after the 901 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:39,879 Speaker 6: injury scare in Cincinnati, he looked fine. 902 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 1: I the other two I don't know, but let's talk 903 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:43,360 Speaker 1: we talk about that for a second. 904 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,280 Speaker 7: Just it's an interesting thing to me of a rookie 905 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,720 Speaker 7: left guard who you know clearly was having a good season, 906 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 7: but you know, Ben Brown a little bit more experienced. 907 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,800 Speaker 1: You've got Vederian Low. Do you put any consideration to that, 908 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,560 Speaker 1: you know? Mix, Yeah, I don't know. 909 00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 9: Maybe I just like he's a little more Again, I'm 910 00:37:58,680 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 9: not sure. 911 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,480 Speaker 6: It's a question to me of like is it Jared 912 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,440 Speaker 6: Wilson at eighty five percent versus Ben Brown at one 913 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:09,279 Speaker 6: hundred or are they both fully healthy? Because I might 914 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,960 Speaker 6: keep Ben Brown in there if Jared Wilson's less than 915 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 6: one hundred percent. 916 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 9: Is there anything to be said though for low being 917 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 9: out there? 918 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 1: You know, Like, I don't know. 919 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:19,320 Speaker 7: I'm just saying, like Ben Brown a little bit more experienced, 920 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,200 Speaker 7: Like is there any kind of connective tissue that you 921 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:23,319 Speaker 7: would rather have a little bit more experienced guy between 922 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 7: the center and the tackle? 923 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 1: Just I don't know, because decision. 924 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 6: They didn't if Brown and low were like the backups 925 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,279 Speaker 6: on that side all summer and they had all these 926 00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 6: reps in the book, but they didn't because Vederian Lowe 927 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,480 Speaker 6: was hurt for a lot of training camp. So I 928 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,880 Speaker 6: remember talking to Viderian Lowe last week or the week before, 929 00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:46,359 Speaker 6: and he was like, up until this week, we really 930 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,000 Speaker 6: haven't practiced together. Yeah, So like I don't think there's 931 00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 6: any real like chemistry advantage necessarily, I just look at 932 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 6: it more. 933 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:57,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if Jared Wilson is at. 934 00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:59,880 Speaker 6: That point where like it's not like it's Quentin Neilson 935 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 6: where it's like, okay, at eighty five percent, yeah we're putting, 936 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 6: we're putting your experience. 937 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:04,919 Speaker 1: Point. 938 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,399 Speaker 8: Brown doesn't have much experience playing guard. 939 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 2: Yeah that's fair, you know, Yeah, I. 940 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 1: Think it's an interesting question. 941 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 7: Yeah, I just wonder how much goes into it of 942 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 7: I mean, you're right for Wilson's one hundred percent. 943 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 8: He probably goes, I mean there's an argument to be 944 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:19,880 Speaker 8: made that if they think that Ben Brown's better and 945 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 8: maybe they wait a little bit longer. 946 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:25,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that you could have two healthy guys 947 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 2: for the playoffs. 948 00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:27,360 Speaker 1: You could make an argument for that. 949 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:32,080 Speaker 8: Tevan's probably right about the status for Wilson will determine. 950 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 2: It Ken las Vegas. 951 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 3: He says on December third, prior to the Buffalo Cincinnati game, 952 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 3: the Patriots were one and a half point favorites versus 953 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:43,120 Speaker 3: Buffalo this week, and after the Buffalo Cincinnati game, the 954 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:46,280 Speaker 3: line switched to Buffalo as a one point five point favorite. 955 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:50,280 Speaker 3: According to Google ai quote, the initial odds saw money 956 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:54,000 Speaker 3: pour in on the Bills flipping the line to favorite Buffalo. 957 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:58,800 Speaker 8: Yeah, I saw, I definitely Last week saw that the 958 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:03,239 Speaker 8: the future line had the Patriots favored, and I was 959 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:07,120 Speaker 8: very surprised that the Patriots didn't play and the Bills 960 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:10,759 Speaker 8: kind of struggled, sorry and survived have well. 961 00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:14,080 Speaker 1: So the future line was before the Bengals game. That 962 00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 1: would be just before the Bengals game, So that was 963 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 1: coming off the Steelers game. For the right, but this 964 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,160 Speaker 1: is like, what do you say, December third? 965 00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:26,839 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, so like pretty recent, like within a week, right. 966 00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 6: I just was wondering which games the future line was 967 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:32,560 Speaker 6: because like if you that line comes out after like 968 00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,160 Speaker 6: the Houston game for Buffalo, then I could understand thinking 969 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:39,000 Speaker 6: that Buffalo is in trouble. I mean, they played, they 970 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 6: ran the ball really well again. 971 00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:42,319 Speaker 8: But it is it's all about the analytics that they 972 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 8: do and then it moves based on the money. And 973 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 8: I don't think that might be right what he said. 974 00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:52,120 Speaker 8: I don't think this significant money coming in on a 975 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:57,360 Speaker 8: game to move a line like two weeks ahead of time, Like, 976 00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:00,360 Speaker 8: I don't. I don't think there's this significant line movement 977 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 8: based on that. I think it's weirdly to me, it's based. 978 00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:08,960 Speaker 2: On two weeks. He said. After the Cincinnati game the 979 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:11,160 Speaker 2: money poured in, but the. 980 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:14,759 Speaker 8: First line after the Cincinnati game had the Patriots underdogs, right. 981 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:16,880 Speaker 8: I don't think the significant money coming in on the 982 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 8: Bills like in the immediate aftermath of the Bengals game. 983 00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 2: That's what he said, That's what google. 984 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 6: But I could see how they were all in agreement 985 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 6: after the Texans Steelers game, where the Bills dominated the Steelers, 986 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:32,319 Speaker 6: but it wasn't a flashy win. 987 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:34,840 Speaker 1: They ran the ball forty five times, but you. 988 00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 8: Could say, oh, you know, the defense shut him down 989 00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:39,399 Speaker 8: the running game, they kept the ball away for yeah, 990 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,040 Speaker 8: but that didn't happen in the Cincinnati game. 991 00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:42,280 Speaker 1: The Cincinnati game was survival. 992 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:45,280 Speaker 6: But the Cincinnati game, though, I think what I'm getting 993 00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 6: at is like I could see the line moving because 994 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:50,000 Speaker 6: Alan played like a near perfect game against the Bengals. 995 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: I mean, he was just awesome. 996 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:55,080 Speaker 6: So if you watch that game and you see Josh 997 00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:59,440 Speaker 6: Allen put up like basically a perfect game against the Bengals, 998 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:01,640 Speaker 6: you might think yourself, all right, maybe we need to 999 00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:03,720 Speaker 6: give the Bills some more respect. 1000 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 1: I don't know about the money side of it. That's 1001 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,799 Speaker 1: what I would do. You know how I would react. 1002 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 2: To Williams in Montreal. Hey, william Hi. 1003 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 16: Last time I called, we were playing Buffalo, and I asked, 1004 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:19,840 Speaker 16: if Drake Man goes into Buffalo and I'll duels Josh Allen, 1005 00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:21,239 Speaker 16: will he be considered m v P. 1006 00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:23,399 Speaker 5: Paul. 1007 00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:26,879 Speaker 16: You proceeded to say, no, he won't. It's too early 1008 00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 16: into the season and nobody's looking at it too. And 1009 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:33,839 Speaker 16: two team and their quarterback as MVP front runner now 1010 00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:37,719 Speaker 16: that Josh Allen is coming to Gelt Stadium, and like 1011 00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:42,320 Speaker 16: how Fred likes to say, we got our guy. I 1012 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:48,719 Speaker 16: mean he outplays Allen again? Is he the clear uh? 1013 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:50,600 Speaker 16: MVP front runner? 1014 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:53,919 Speaker 2: Thank you and William. Are there a lot of Bills 1015 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:54,840 Speaker 2: fans in Montreal? 1016 00:42:57,040 --> 00:43:01,480 Speaker 16: I mean, my, my, I have a few people I 1017 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:06,480 Speaker 16: know that like Buffalo. Definitely not the closest people I'm with, 1018 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:15,440 Speaker 16: But I try avoiding those people because friends are crazy. No, 1019 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:20,680 Speaker 16: the majority of them, like Buffalo. There's a few Patriots 1020 00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:23,560 Speaker 16: signs here in Montreal. There's forty nine Ers fans. There's 1021 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:24,720 Speaker 16: a bunch of bands everywhere. 1022 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,880 Speaker 3: Okay, I'm just curious because I think the Bills like 1023 00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:31,880 Speaker 3: to fashion themselves as the team of Montreal and Toronto. 1024 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:34,919 Speaker 1: Right across the Yeah. 1025 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:41,040 Speaker 8: Yeah, I would say that the and I totally remember saying, no, 1026 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:43,279 Speaker 8: that's not going to you know, like one game. But 1027 00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 8: I would say that if Drake May didn't do what 1028 00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:49,400 Speaker 8: he did in every other game, he wouldn't be an 1029 00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:53,759 Speaker 8: MVP candidate based on one game in primetime. Now, he 1030 00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:56,920 Speaker 8: absolutely got on the radar that night, and the Patriots 1031 00:43:56,960 --> 00:43:59,320 Speaker 8: got on the radar that night with their performance. But 1032 00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:01,600 Speaker 8: Drake made that did it every week for the next 1033 00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 8: nine weeks or whatever it was after that too, So 1034 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,080 Speaker 8: that's why he's an MVP candidate. And if he does 1035 00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:10,280 Speaker 8: it again Sunday, I need to know what Matthew Stafford 1036 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 8: does because I don't really look at Josh Allen. I 1037 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:14,279 Speaker 8: know Josh is probably creeping up. 1038 00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:14,839 Speaker 1: Is he third? 1039 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:15,439 Speaker 2: Now fourth? 1040 00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 1: He's fourth? 1041 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:18,480 Speaker 8: Okay, so I know he's entering the pitcher. But to me, 1042 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,720 Speaker 8: this is a two horse race. It's May and it's Stafford. 1043 00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:24,080 Speaker 6: The lines would agree with you, minus one eighty for Stafford, 1044 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:25,239 Speaker 6: minus two ten for May. 1045 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 1: Then everybody else's You know. 1046 00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 8: Does Stafford have another game like he did Sunday against 1047 00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:32,960 Speaker 8: the Cardinals where he's sort of on the sideline for 1048 00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 8: the fourth quarter because he decimated Arizona so much? Or 1049 00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 8: is it like the week before that in Carolina where 1050 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:42,239 Speaker 8: for the first time in like ten weeks, he turned 1051 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:43,399 Speaker 8: the ball over a couple of times. 1052 00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:45,759 Speaker 6: Yeah, I would say that these next two weeks, though, 1053 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,160 Speaker 6: you know, Buffalo and Baltimore in prime time. 1054 00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 5: Yep. 1055 00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:50,799 Speaker 6: If Drake May is two to zero and has two 1056 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:54,200 Speaker 6: really good games against Alan Lamar, it's gonna be hard 1057 00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:57,319 Speaker 6: to not see him as the MVP like that, I. 1058 00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:59,839 Speaker 8: Think it's it's going to be up to what Stafford does. 1059 00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:01,800 Speaker 8: I think that's part of it. I don't think that 1060 00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:02,680 Speaker 8: May can just win. 1061 00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 6: I just want to you know, I'm big on the 1062 00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:06,640 Speaker 6: MVP thing. I know I probably care about it too much. 1063 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:10,160 Speaker 6: I just like I hope that voters are consistent with it. 1064 00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:13,439 Speaker 6: I do because if you voted for Josh Allen last 1065 00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 6: year over Lamar, then you should be voting for Drake 1066 00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,080 Speaker 6: May over Matthew Stafford. The reason why Josh Allen won 1067 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,000 Speaker 6: it last year is because everybody said he had a 1068 00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:25,279 Speaker 6: worse supporting cast than Lamar Jackson. If you give Drake May, 1069 00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:30,480 Speaker 6: Puka Nakua and DeVante Adams just like Stafford, you know, 1070 00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:31,360 Speaker 6: you don't know. 1071 00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:33,040 Speaker 1: It is a good argument. 1072 00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:34,840 Speaker 8: It's a really good argument because you look at the 1073 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:37,600 Speaker 8: way Josh Allen won the games too. Had to have 1074 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:40,520 Speaker 8: factored in because he won games last year down the 1075 00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:44,560 Speaker 8: stretch the way he did against Cincinnati, and as great 1076 00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:47,120 Speaker 8: as May has been, the Patriots have been so good 1077 00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:49,480 Speaker 8: that they haven't had to do that. Yeah, it's not 1078 00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:51,399 Speaker 8: Drake May's fault that he hasn't had to have fourth 1079 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:53,759 Speaker 8: quarter comebacks because they have the lead all the time. Yep, 1080 00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 8: you know, But unfortunately, I think in the voter's eyes 1081 00:45:57,640 --> 00:45:59,680 Speaker 8: sometimes that stuff is what stands out. 1082 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:00,880 Speaker 5: You know. 1083 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,520 Speaker 8: Even Caleb Williams has got like five come from behind 1084 00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:05,600 Speaker 8: wins this year, no one would say Caleb Williams has 1085 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:06,680 Speaker 8: played better than Drake May. 1086 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:10,040 Speaker 2: I'm close Tony's in Canada. What's up Tony? 1087 00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:11,319 Speaker 3: Hey? 1088 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:16,040 Speaker 15: Guys? Yeah, Well, interested about that game this weekend. That's 1089 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:19,200 Speaker 15: going to be really exciting. So many things I'd like 1090 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:23,360 Speaker 15: to say, But regarding May, I think we really lucked 1091 00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 15: out of the three that quarterbacks that came out that year, 1092 00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 15: we got the best one, not just because of his talent, 1093 00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:34,320 Speaker 15: but because of his work ethic and his personality. And 1094 00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:38,040 Speaker 15: if you listen to Josh talk about him, he stresses that, 1095 00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:40,840 Speaker 15: you know, how much of a how smart he is, 1096 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:45,360 Speaker 15: how quick he picks up his personality. But here's what 1097 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 15: I called in about. Do you think maybe not enough 1098 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:53,360 Speaker 15: is being said about the Patriots' red zone, the issues 1099 00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:56,239 Speaker 15: in terms of being able to get into the red 1100 00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:59,280 Speaker 15: zone score touchdowns rather than field goals. 1101 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:01,359 Speaker 2: It's certainly been talked about. 1102 00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 15: It's going to be Yeah, I know that's gonna have 1103 00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:08,240 Speaker 15: a critical decision in terms of our outcome for games. 1104 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:10,799 Speaker 15: So wondering if you guys think, how are we going 1105 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:15,239 Speaker 15: to change things up? I heard Bart and Alex they 1106 00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:19,000 Speaker 15: talked about possibly running kind of like plays running May 1107 00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:21,400 Speaker 15: more trying to run me into the end zone release 1108 00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:24,040 Speaker 15: making a threat. Do you guys think that'll happen? 1109 00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:27,400 Speaker 3: What you guys see, Well, listen, I mean your original 1110 00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:29,480 Speaker 3: thing is is it being talked about enough? I mean 1111 00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:31,799 Speaker 3: even Vrabel mentioned it that that's something that they're going 1112 00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:34,560 Speaker 3: to be working on during the bye. 1113 00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:37,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, the bye. I mean they know what's a problem. 1114 00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:40,279 Speaker 6: That's all I've thought about for two weeks. Yeah, you know, 1115 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:42,120 Speaker 6: but like mixing the red zone. 1116 00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:45,080 Speaker 2: May, establishing May as a threat down there can't hurt. 1117 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:45,680 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1118 00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:47,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, And they're twenty fourth in the league right now 1119 00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:51,600 Speaker 6: in red zone offense, they're down near the bottom of 1120 00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 6: the league and goal to go as well. If you're 1121 00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 6: not going to win in the playoffs like that. Now, 1122 00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:58,200 Speaker 6: I think there's two ways you can look at it. 1123 00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:00,879 Speaker 6: One would be to expand the p book down there, 1124 00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:03,799 Speaker 6: you know, with May's legs or you know, whether it's 1125 00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:06,680 Speaker 6: RPO zone read whatever, move in the pocket you know, 1126 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:10,200 Speaker 6: just incorporating his legs somehow. The other way, which might 1127 00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 6: be the way they end up having to go, is well, 1128 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:14,520 Speaker 6: if you can't score in the red zone, just to 1129 00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:17,239 Speaker 6: start taking shots from right outside the red zone, like 1130 00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:20,560 Speaker 6: once you get to the twenty five. Yeah, just just 1131 00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:23,239 Speaker 6: you know, to have him throw, you know, vertically into 1132 00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:25,880 Speaker 6: the end zone from from outside the red zone. So 1133 00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:28,600 Speaker 6: you know, those high red zone shot plays might be 1134 00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:31,400 Speaker 6: another way that they can kind of get around that. 1135 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,320 Speaker 6: But they don't have the the personnel right now on 1136 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:38,040 Speaker 6: the offensive line to like move people on the goal line. 1137 00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:40,640 Speaker 1: It's just they just haven't been able to run the 1138 00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:41,440 Speaker 1: football down there. 1139 00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:43,400 Speaker 7: Do you have any hope that Ramandro Stevenson with the 1140 00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 7: bye week, just has a little bit more juice. 1141 00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:47,279 Speaker 9: Like I felt the last couple of games when he 1142 00:48:47,360 --> 00:48:47,799 Speaker 9: came back. 1143 00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:49,960 Speaker 2: I just feel like, I think it's all about the line. 1144 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:53,000 Speaker 8: And this is one of these ridiculous things that I 1145 00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:56,000 Speaker 8: throw out there that I have no information on. I 1146 00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:58,440 Speaker 8: feel like the red zone problem kind of started when 1147 00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:00,759 Speaker 8: he got hurt. I don't remember earlier in the year 1148 00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:02,480 Speaker 8: that I'm having as many problems running, and I. 1149 00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:05,399 Speaker 6: Think it started when he fumbled. When he started having 1150 00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:08,040 Speaker 6: the fumble issues, and it could it could be, it. 1151 00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:10,800 Speaker 8: Could be, but I do think that he's an important 1152 00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:13,600 Speaker 8: part of that. They need him, They need him to 1153 00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:15,560 Speaker 8: be the batter and ram that he has always been. 1154 00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:18,399 Speaker 1: I just like I I when you're running the ball 1155 00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:20,879 Speaker 1: on the one yard line, like you can run through 1156 00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:23,760 Speaker 1: somebody in school, you think that maybe he's too tentative. 1157 00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:24,719 Speaker 8: I just try that. 1158 00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:27,200 Speaker 1: Like, I understand that it would be ideal to block 1159 00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:28,960 Speaker 1: it up and get a nice clean. 1160 00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:32,520 Speaker 8: Shot at it, but mostly that's not how you got right. 1161 00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:35,919 Speaker 6: And so you know, hopefully they can put Toga back 1162 00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:39,160 Speaker 6: there and they put you know, Remondra behind Tonga, and 1163 00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:41,879 Speaker 6: you know, you just ram it into the end zone, 1164 00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:44,839 Speaker 6: like and that shouldn't be this hard, Yeah, nobody should. 1165 00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:47,520 Speaker 7: I still just remember the Remondery of Week one last year, 1166 00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:50,640 Speaker 7: you know, breaking tackles left and right in the backfield. 1167 00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:51,800 Speaker 1: I mean, not a necessity. 1168 00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 7: But you know, we just we talked to him in 1169 00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:56,880 Speaker 7: the locker room a couple of weeks style about fumble. 1170 00:49:56,960 --> 00:49:59,840 Speaker 8: That point that Evan made about the fumbles is probably accurate. 1171 00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:02,120 Speaker 8: Maybe why because you don't get a lot. I mean, 1172 00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:03,920 Speaker 8: it happens once in a while where it just opens 1173 00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:05,440 Speaker 8: up in the goal line the guy Waltz is in. 1174 00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:07,920 Speaker 8: That doesn't happen a lot. Yeah, yeah, you know, usually 1175 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:09,560 Speaker 8: you've got to make some you got to you know, 1176 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:11,840 Speaker 8: fight through a linebacker or in the gap or something. 1177 00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,080 Speaker 8: And I mean, you say, so many guys you can 1178 00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:14,440 Speaker 8: block it. 1179 00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:15,319 Speaker 1: Just it makes me wonder. 1180 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:17,480 Speaker 7: I brought this topic up thinking about his toe and 1181 00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:19,640 Speaker 7: just health, but maybe it's even a mental thing where 1182 00:50:19,640 --> 00:50:22,359 Speaker 7: it's like we're eleven and two almost. 1183 00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:23,600 Speaker 3: You know. 1184 00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:25,040 Speaker 7: But I was gonna say, we talked to him in 1185 00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:26,360 Speaker 7: the locker room a couple weeks ago, and it just, 1186 00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:27,920 Speaker 7: you know, when he first came back, and it seemed 1187 00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:30,920 Speaker 7: to me like he's still really fighting through something. 1188 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:32,719 Speaker 1: It's not like, oh, I'm healthy, now I'm back it. 1189 00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:33,160 Speaker 17: You know. 1190 00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 1: It feels like this is going to be a process 1191 00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:36,360 Speaker 1: to get over this toe thing, whatever it was. 1192 00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:41,000 Speaker 6: So that's that's why the mad like option plays could help, 1193 00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:44,120 Speaker 6: because like you're when you're down by the goal line, 1194 00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:45,680 Speaker 6: you don't have to put a safety in the deep 1195 00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:47,200 Speaker 6: part of the field because there is no deep part 1196 00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:48,960 Speaker 6: of the field. So now that safety is in the 1197 00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:51,160 Speaker 6: box sure, near the line of scrimmage. So now you're 1198 00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:54,200 Speaker 6: you're you can't, like to Paul's point, you can't block 1199 00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:56,960 Speaker 6: them all. And so if you have Drake, then you're 1200 00:50:57,080 --> 00:51:00,239 Speaker 6: able to use him to hold the backside and it 1201 00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:03,640 Speaker 6: occupies a defender, maybe even two defenders depending on how 1202 00:51:03,719 --> 00:51:06,520 Speaker 6: you design it. So that way there, you're actually gonna 1203 00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:09,440 Speaker 6: leave those guys purposely unblocked and you're gonna hope that 1204 00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:12,000 Speaker 6: they react to the quarterback and then you can get 1205 00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:14,960 Speaker 6: the numbers to where you're actually trying to run the football. 1206 00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:18,000 Speaker 6: So like in theory that that's why those plays work 1207 00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:20,600 Speaker 6: so well in like short yardage and low red zone 1208 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,640 Speaker 6: opportunities is because you're you're evening up the numbers. Now 1209 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:26,240 Speaker 6: you're playing eleven on eleven instead of ten on eleven 1210 00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:27,280 Speaker 6: if you're the offense. 1211 00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:33,839 Speaker 7: Jordan is in Canada, Jordan, Yes, Jordan, or Jordan's Jordan. 1212 00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:34,080 Speaker 10: Hi. 1213 00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:41,439 Speaker 18: Guys as just generally anxious person and anxious Patriots fan. 1214 00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:44,799 Speaker 18: I want so badly to just jump on the Drake 1215 00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:48,000 Speaker 18: May thing and like be like, yes, he saved us, 1216 00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:51,840 Speaker 18: He's our guy, you know, And I'm starting to become convinced. 1217 00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:53,280 Speaker 18: But something that Evan said. 1218 00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:56,560 Speaker 19: Yesterday kind of made me question or it made me think, 1219 00:51:56,640 --> 00:52:00,360 Speaker 19: so the cause Evan yesterday you said something along the 1220 00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:06,279 Speaker 19: lines of the Patriots won't will likely not lose in 1221 00:52:06,360 --> 00:52:10,440 Speaker 19: a fashion of like a defensive rock fight. You can 1222 00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:14,880 Speaker 19: more likely see them losing in like a shootout, like 1223 00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:16,319 Speaker 19: a battle to the end. 1224 00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:19,920 Speaker 18: And I was just wondering why you guys think that, 1225 00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:24,000 Speaker 18: because honestly, the offense hasn't scored over like twenty something 1226 00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:27,200 Speaker 18: points all season, So why do you think that we 1227 00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:30,720 Speaker 18: have a better shot in winning a game like forty 1228 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:33,960 Speaker 18: five to forty three? Like, I don't know, I just 1229 00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:37,080 Speaker 18: don't see it. I want to that's exciting, but like, 1230 00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:40,200 Speaker 18: I don't know, I'm just not convinced. I want to 1231 00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:43,480 Speaker 18: be convinced. So what are your guys just thow? 1232 00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:45,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think question or flopped it. 1233 00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:49,799 Speaker 1: I think you're better off winning a game, a lower 1234 00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:51,480 Speaker 1: scoring game, So you. 1235 00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:53,640 Speaker 2: Think there's more chance they win a rock fight than 1236 00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:54,240 Speaker 2: a shootout. 1237 00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:57,439 Speaker 1: Correct. I haven't seen them win a shootout. They haven't 1238 00:52:57,440 --> 00:52:59,760 Speaker 1: really had to, right, right, So that's that's valid. 1239 00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:02,560 Speaker 8: That would be My argument is, like we talk about 1240 00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:06,879 Speaker 8: that they haven't scored that many points, like offensive points, well, 1241 00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:10,319 Speaker 8: the most points they've allowed is what twenty seven? Yeah, 1242 00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:13,280 Speaker 8: and that was once with a kick with a punt return, 1243 00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:14,080 Speaker 8: it was twenty three. 1244 00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:17,279 Speaker 6: Otherwise, it's under twenty three that during the entire winning streak, 1245 00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:19,160 Speaker 6: they haven't given up more than twenty three in ten. 1246 00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:21,040 Speaker 8: Stright, right, I mean, the only the only time they 1247 00:53:21,080 --> 00:53:23,080 Speaker 8: give up twenty three in any game was the Miami 1248 00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:25,320 Speaker 8: game that they give up the punt return for a touchdown. 1249 00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:27,840 Speaker 6: I guess that was really only twenty that one. I 1250 00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:30,359 Speaker 6: guess you could it was a mini shootout. I don't 1251 00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 6: know if that was a full flag shootout, and I. 1252 00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:35,200 Speaker 8: Would, you know, sub mini shootout, subtract the seven for both, 1253 00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:38,879 Speaker 8: because right, you know, the Patriots then in turn turned 1254 00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:41,320 Speaker 8: the kick off of the punt return for a touchdown. 1255 00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:45,279 Speaker 8: But yeah, to Jordan's point, they haven't really been in 1256 00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:47,640 Speaker 8: those shootouts, and maybe you don't know if they can 1257 00:53:47,800 --> 00:53:48,560 Speaker 8: they can win one. 1258 00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:51,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I. 1259 00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:56,840 Speaker 8: I don't know how i'd feel relying on the defense 1260 00:53:56,880 --> 00:53:58,560 Speaker 8: to win the game. I think the defense has not 1261 00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:01,040 Speaker 8: been put in a ton of really bad spots. When 1262 00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:05,120 Speaker 8: they have, they've come through every time I've chronicled Miami, Cincinnati, 1263 00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:07,680 Speaker 8: New Orleans like they've when they've had to stop the 1264 00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:09,080 Speaker 8: other team at the end of the game they have. 1265 00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:11,760 Speaker 1: I don't know if you want to be in that situation. 1266 00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:14,640 Speaker 6: I think I more look at it just from like 1267 00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:17,919 Speaker 6: how the script of the game, like how the game 1268 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:20,880 Speaker 6: flow goes, Like I don't know if it's necessarily relying 1269 00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:22,880 Speaker 6: on the defense, but maybe it's a short it's a 1270 00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:26,200 Speaker 6: shortened game where each team only has like eight possessions, 1271 00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:28,600 Speaker 6: and like I just feel like the Patriots, I'm more 1272 00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:31,800 Speaker 6: look at them as an efficient offense, not necessarily a 1273 00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:35,160 Speaker 6: volume offense, Like they're very, very efficient, but in the 1274 00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:36,000 Speaker 6: plays that they run. 1275 00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:37,600 Speaker 1: But I haven't seen them. 1276 00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:41,360 Speaker 6: You know, I haven't seen Drake mego against Josh Allen 1277 00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:42,680 Speaker 6: and win forty five to forty. 1278 00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:43,640 Speaker 1: I'm not saying you can't. 1279 00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:46,000 Speaker 6: I'm just saying you haven't seen it, right, So I 1280 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,880 Speaker 6: just I would rather all year long, they've been playing 1281 00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:52,680 Speaker 6: games that are are like you know in this that 1282 00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:57,920 Speaker 6: that twenty three point range right, Like I. 1283 00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:00,600 Speaker 8: Haven't really lit the school board up. Even their offense 1284 00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:01,279 Speaker 8: has been really good. 1285 00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:03,319 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, I'm just thinking of the Bengals Bills game 1286 00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 7: last weekend where you know, it's all of a sudden, 1287 00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:07,520 Speaker 7: Joe Burrow is taking the field and he needs to 1288 00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:10,720 Speaker 7: go score. You know, those kind of situations you haven't 1289 00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:13,400 Speaker 7: really seen them in And that's maybe one of the 1290 00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:15,680 Speaker 7: things I'm wondering most about this game. Is this game 1291 00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:18,480 Speaker 7: going to be a game that's a little off script 1292 00:55:18,560 --> 00:55:20,279 Speaker 7: from what we've seen, because I mean, I mean, and 1293 00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:21,920 Speaker 7: maybe this is I don't know, I'm just this is 1294 00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:23,320 Speaker 7: off the top of my head. But I would say generally, 1295 00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:25,200 Speaker 7: like the games have all kind of felt the same, like, 1296 00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:27,600 Speaker 7: you know, there's maybe some little lulls, but generally they 1297 00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:29,840 Speaker 7: kind of just keep pulling away and then in the 1298 00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:32,120 Speaker 7: second half they're able to ice it out and you know, 1299 00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:35,040 Speaker 7: the other team never really makes that late push where 1300 00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:37,200 Speaker 7: you're like, Okay, Drake, there's four minutes left in the 1301 00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:37,719 Speaker 7: fourth quarter. 1302 00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:40,160 Speaker 1: Josh Allen just let his team down the field. Now 1303 00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:41,239 Speaker 1: it's your turn to go do it. 1304 00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:45,120 Speaker 7: And to me, that's the perfect like MVP showcase, you know, 1305 00:55:45,239 --> 00:55:46,920 Speaker 7: like it's just that that could line up to. 1306 00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:50,320 Speaker 1: Be a perfect feather and Drake mayscap. 1307 00:55:49,960 --> 00:55:51,440 Speaker 8: And I know you want to go to the emails, Freddie, 1308 00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:53,080 Speaker 8: I'll give you one more thing that I would like 1309 00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:55,239 Speaker 8: about the Patriots chances in one of those rock fight 1310 00:55:55,360 --> 00:55:57,600 Speaker 8: kind of games, is I think Rabel and stretch have 1311 00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:02,239 Speaker 8: demonstrated a really good asp of game situations. You know, 1312 00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:07,080 Speaker 8: you asked me yesterday any clock management an that kind, 1313 00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:09,560 Speaker 8: you know, any ref bashing? Well, I left out an 1314 00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:11,400 Speaker 8: enormous one from one of the guys that I have 1315 00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:14,440 Speaker 8: the most respect for. And Andy Reid going for a 1316 00:56:14,520 --> 00:56:17,279 Speaker 8: fourth down, you know, in a ten ten game at 1317 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:22,080 Speaker 8: that time, was certainly risky. Now I understand probably more 1318 00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:25,800 Speaker 8: than most. Like everybody says, you know, so people that 1319 00:56:25,880 --> 00:56:28,560 Speaker 8: don't know it was tie game, fourth quarter, they're in there. 1320 00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:30,200 Speaker 8: I think they're on their own thirty one. They went 1321 00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:33,279 Speaker 8: for a fourth and a long one and I think 1322 00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:37,200 Speaker 8: Rashi Rice dropped a pass and I'll obviously kind of 1323 00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:41,800 Speaker 8: just handed Houston to go ahead points. Everybody said that 1324 00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:45,000 Speaker 8: was dumb. He should have punted. Your defense was playing 1325 00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:48,480 Speaker 8: really well. I would kind of counter. Now, I would 1326 00:56:48,520 --> 00:56:51,800 Speaker 8: have punted, full disclosure, I absolutely would have punted. But 1327 00:56:53,120 --> 00:56:54,800 Speaker 8: if the reason I would have punted it was because 1328 00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:58,240 Speaker 8: my defense was playing really well, well, shouldn't I expect 1329 00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:00,239 Speaker 8: the defense to continue to play really well and up 1330 00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:01,120 Speaker 8: with a stop and make him. 1331 00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:01,640 Speaker 1: Kick a field goal. 1332 00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:04,360 Speaker 8: You make it a little bit tougher, but you'll let 1333 00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:06,960 Speaker 8: him go six place thirty one yards touchdown, like if 1334 00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:08,960 Speaker 8: you if you give up a field goal there, my 1335 00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:11,840 Speaker 8: defense continued to play well, like I think he was 1336 00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:13,759 Speaker 8: showing confidence in his defense. 1337 00:57:13,480 --> 00:57:13,919 Speaker 1: Is my point? 1338 00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:14,080 Speaker 12: Oh? 1339 00:57:14,120 --> 00:57:17,440 Speaker 6: Yes, you just that you just made the nerd argument. 1340 00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:20,400 Speaker 6: That's what that that's the nerd argument right there. But 1341 00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:22,720 Speaker 6: then is that if you look at you that way, 1342 00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:25,360 Speaker 6: if you rely on it, if you're saying I don't 1343 00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:27,840 Speaker 6: really like myself right now, if you're saying that your 1344 00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:31,520 Speaker 6: defense is the strength, then shouldn't you trust your defense 1345 00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:32,280 Speaker 6: to hold. 1346 00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:37,200 Speaker 2: That your defense? If I don't get it, my defense 1347 00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:38,000 Speaker 2: is going to come through. 1348 00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:41,440 Speaker 8: And but there's ten minutes left, I'm okay being down three, right, 1349 00:57:42,120 --> 00:57:43,400 Speaker 8: I'll give them because. 1350 00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:44,800 Speaker 1: He did he did it, but he didn't know he 1351 00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:46,880 Speaker 1: did it, and I like that you No, No, I 1352 00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:49,240 Speaker 1: backed into it. I knew what I was doing. 1353 00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:49,520 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1354 00:57:50,320 --> 00:57:52,760 Speaker 1: But the thing that that really stood out to me 1355 00:57:53,040 --> 00:57:56,400 Speaker 1: was it's not like. 1356 00:57:57,920 --> 00:58:01,720 Speaker 8: This whole thing about the analytics that never like they 1357 00:58:01,800 --> 00:58:03,960 Speaker 8: don't take the game situation. That's why I would have 1358 00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:07,920 Speaker 8: punted because I don't need to get the yard. The 1359 00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:10,240 Speaker 8: yard like to me, is not like going to translate 1360 00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:12,640 Speaker 8: to points. Like let's just say they got it. It's 1361 00:58:12,720 --> 00:58:15,160 Speaker 8: a rock fight. That doesn't mean you're that you're eminently 1362 00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:17,880 Speaker 8: going to score now. You might ultimately end up having 1363 00:58:17,920 --> 00:58:19,320 Speaker 8: a punt anyway, So just punt. 1364 00:58:19,400 --> 00:58:20,040 Speaker 1: Play it safe. 1365 00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:23,240 Speaker 8: Don't put yourself in a situation where and Evan will 1366 00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:24,960 Speaker 8: have the numbers. I don't know what it is, like 1367 00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:29,000 Speaker 8: fourth and fourth and one. You probably have like an 1368 00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:31,280 Speaker 8: eighty plus percent chance of converting. 1369 00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:33,800 Speaker 1: That very high, Like I don't know exactly what it 1370 00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:34,560 Speaker 1: is for twenty twenty. 1371 00:58:35,680 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 8: A situation where one like you have the one of 1372 00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:41,520 Speaker 8: the ten percent is going to cost you a game. 1373 00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:42,640 Speaker 1: Right, And they don't. 1374 00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:46,480 Speaker 3: They don't do the analytics, don't take in game situations 1375 00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:48,800 Speaker 3: not part of the Curry Street mentioned it in the 1376 00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:49,480 Speaker 3: last game. 1377 00:58:49,720 --> 00:58:51,840 Speaker 8: Time and scorer is not really a big part of 1378 00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:52,600 Speaker 8: those analytics. 1379 00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:55,680 Speaker 3: It's also like, let's just say what a key defensive 1380 00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:59,240 Speaker 3: player is hurt your guy in this particular game, and 1381 00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:00,080 Speaker 3: that changes it. 1382 00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:02,520 Speaker 8: Don't take time, I know, which is not true. 1383 00:59:02,920 --> 00:59:03,800 Speaker 1: I'm just thanking you for that. 1384 00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:04,240 Speaker 2: That's okay. 1385 00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:07,919 Speaker 7: Let me ask you a question going into this game 1386 00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:10,560 Speaker 7: for the Patriots perspective, would you go in with an 1387 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:11,560 Speaker 7: aggressive attitude? 1388 00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:13,240 Speaker 9: Would you be saying to your team we need to 1389 00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:14,040 Speaker 9: be aggressive tonight. 1390 00:59:14,080 --> 00:59:15,720 Speaker 7: We need to you know, if we have a fourth 1391 00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:18,080 Speaker 7: and two or you know, inside the twenty and we're 1392 00:59:18,120 --> 00:59:19,320 Speaker 7: gonna need touchdowns to beat this. 1393 00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:21,600 Speaker 8: Guy in Yes, I would have that, but it can 1394 00:59:21,800 --> 00:59:24,200 Speaker 8: like this is why I would have caught game to players, 1395 00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:26,200 Speaker 8: of course, because it's ten ten in the fourth quarter 1396 00:59:26,360 --> 00:59:28,360 Speaker 8: in a freezing cold night where the offenses are not 1397 00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:29,320 Speaker 8: really doing a whole lot. 1398 00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:32,120 Speaker 6: Now, Yeah, that that's a That's the type of stuff 1399 00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:35,160 Speaker 6: that that the math won't necessarily take into account, is 1400 00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:37,560 Speaker 6: like what kind of game is unfolding in front of us? 1401 00:59:37,680 --> 00:59:39,080 Speaker 1: What are the conditions? Who's hurt? 1402 00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:41,640 Speaker 6: Like all those different types of things. But down in 1403 00:59:41,720 --> 00:59:44,160 Speaker 6: distance and time left in the game is that's what 1404 00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:47,160 Speaker 6: goes into the computer, Like the computer you spin, you 1405 00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:49,920 Speaker 6: put in the computer, it's fourth and one, it's ten 1406 00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:52,800 Speaker 6: to ten, there's eight minutes left. Should I go for 1407 00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:54,040 Speaker 6: it or should I not go for it? 1408 00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:57,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, but there are other factors in I just say 1409 00:59:57,120 --> 00:59:59,880 Speaker 2: that I know what I'm saying. It doesn't it's not. 1410 01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:00,360 Speaker 10: No. 1411 01:00:01,240 --> 01:00:04,280 Speaker 3: All all these analytics do is say what happened in 1412 01:00:04,360 --> 01:00:06,920 Speaker 3: the past it and that's all it does. 1413 01:00:06,960 --> 01:00:08,520 Speaker 1: That's how I understand it. If I'm wrong. 1414 01:00:08,600 --> 01:00:10,640 Speaker 8: If I'm wrong, I'm wrong, and I'm not telling you 1415 01:00:10,680 --> 01:00:12,720 Speaker 8: that i'm right because I do not do the nerd stuff. 1416 01:00:13,480 --> 01:00:16,560 Speaker 8: But I think that the percentages when when the game, 1417 01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:19,600 Speaker 8: when you're watching a game and they put up ESPN says, go, 1418 01:00:20,760 --> 01:00:24,360 Speaker 8: they're not doing that. They're putting in it's a it's 1419 01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:27,160 Speaker 8: a fourth and two. These are the percentages of fourth 1420 01:00:27,240 --> 01:00:28,520 Speaker 8: and two's that have been converted. 1421 01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:32,200 Speaker 6: That's not how that, like our guys, Stretch is not 1422 01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:35,280 Speaker 6: doing it that way that they put into the computer. 1423 01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:39,400 Speaker 6: It's fourth and two, it's ten to ten, there's nine 1424 01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:40,360 Speaker 6: minutes left in the game. 1425 01:00:40,560 --> 01:00:41,960 Speaker 1: Now it doesn't put in that. 1426 01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:44,560 Speaker 6: It's the bills without ed Oliver and without it doesn't 1427 01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:45,680 Speaker 6: have all those factors. 1428 01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:47,200 Speaker 1: And maybe they have a way to do that because 1429 01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:50,959 Speaker 1: it does better. But I'm telling you, I'm just telling 1430 01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:54,680 Speaker 1: you what it does, Okay, and then it doesn't. That's 1431 01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:57,080 Speaker 1: that's it is, word for it. That's how it goes. 1432 01:00:57,520 --> 01:00:57,720 Speaker 16: Well. 1433 01:00:57,800 --> 01:01:00,160 Speaker 1: I have, like I don't have our calculator, and I 1434 01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:02,160 Speaker 1: have a calculator that's public. 1435 01:01:02,160 --> 01:01:04,760 Speaker 6: That that this is the You put the field position, 1436 01:01:05,200 --> 01:01:07,919 Speaker 6: you put the time and score, you put the down 1437 01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:10,560 Speaker 6: and distance, and it spits out whether or not you 1438 01:01:10,600 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 6: should go forward or. 1439 01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:14,600 Speaker 3: Not, and you better also be putting in how has 1440 01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:17,720 Speaker 3: our defense been performing this game, so that any other 1441 01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:18,360 Speaker 3: factor that. 1442 01:01:18,520 --> 01:01:21,200 Speaker 6: To me is why the Atriot system works so well 1443 01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:25,000 Speaker 6: or has worked, is because I think Stretching, the guys 1444 01:01:25,080 --> 01:01:26,960 Speaker 6: up top are doing the computers. 1445 01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:28,880 Speaker 1: And that's the point that I stayed with. 1446 01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:31,960 Speaker 8: I feel like Rabel and Stretch have demonstrated a good 1447 01:01:32,080 --> 01:01:33,720 Speaker 8: grasp of game situation. 1448 01:01:33,440 --> 01:01:37,240 Speaker 6: Because I think Rabel is what Fred is saying, and 1449 01:01:37,360 --> 01:01:40,360 Speaker 6: he puts that thought into it. Stretch puts the nerd 1450 01:01:40,440 --> 01:01:42,560 Speaker 6: math into it, and they come in the middle and 1451 01:01:42,600 --> 01:01:43,880 Speaker 6: they say, this is what we're going to do. 1452 01:01:44,040 --> 01:01:44,200 Speaker 8: Now. 1453 01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:47,680 Speaker 6: Most of their decisions do go by the numbers, just 1454 01:01:48,200 --> 01:01:51,040 Speaker 6: in terms of being lockstep with the numbers. But I 1455 01:01:51,120 --> 01:01:53,120 Speaker 6: think the bigger thing in terms of, like, you know, 1456 01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:55,680 Speaker 6: the analytics with all these game situation type of things, 1457 01:01:56,240 --> 01:02:00,560 Speaker 6: it does also account for what is your win percentage 1458 01:02:00,600 --> 01:02:03,000 Speaker 6: if you fail and what is your win percentage if 1459 01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:06,640 Speaker 6: you succeed, And it takes into count the fact that 1460 01:02:06,760 --> 01:02:10,480 Speaker 6: you could fail. Now your win percentage when you fail 1461 01:02:11,040 --> 01:02:15,040 Speaker 6: might be only one percentage point less than if you 1462 01:02:15,320 --> 01:02:18,280 Speaker 6: you know, if you fail if you punt right, So 1463 01:02:18,440 --> 01:02:20,840 Speaker 6: that is why that comes into this as well. Like 1464 01:02:20,880 --> 01:02:23,000 Speaker 6: if we kick a field goal here, we have a 1465 01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:26,320 Speaker 6: seventy six percent chance of winning, but if we fail 1466 01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:29,919 Speaker 6: this fourth down, we have a seventy five percent chance 1467 01:02:29,960 --> 01:02:33,439 Speaker 6: of winning. So for the one percentage point difference, we're 1468 01:02:33,480 --> 01:02:33,800 Speaker 6: gonna go. 1469 01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:34,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1470 01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:37,880 Speaker 3: I just like it when the people making the decisions 1471 01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:40,439 Speaker 3: have either played the game or coach the game. 1472 01:02:41,000 --> 01:02:42,120 Speaker 2: That makes me feel better. 1473 01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:44,520 Speaker 1: But don't you wantry doing it? 1474 01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:46,560 Speaker 7: Like? I think I could have confidence you were doing 1475 01:02:46,600 --> 01:02:48,040 Speaker 7: it like, I mean, I think you're pretty aware of 1476 01:02:48,120 --> 01:02:48,480 Speaker 7: these all. 1477 01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:50,600 Speaker 8: I mean, I I'm sure I would choke like a 1478 01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:52,960 Speaker 8: dog if I was doing it for real, as opposed 1479 01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:55,680 Speaker 8: to making fun of Stark Hanson on Red Zone. 1480 01:02:55,800 --> 01:02:57,520 Speaker 6: I think it's I think it's really cool how the 1481 01:02:57,600 --> 01:03:00,800 Speaker 6: Patriots do it because they have they have them, they 1482 01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:03,040 Speaker 6: have the algorithms, and then they make a decisions and 1483 01:03:03,080 --> 01:03:05,320 Speaker 6: then Vray Bulk is able to have a great feel 1484 01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:08,480 Speaker 6: of like what's the situation, how are we feeling? 1485 01:03:08,680 --> 01:03:11,919 Speaker 1: What's the you know, what's who were we playing? Who's hurt, 1486 01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:13,840 Speaker 1: who's not hurt? What player are we getting to? 1487 01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:15,200 Speaker 8: Right? 1488 01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:18,400 Speaker 6: You know, they kicked the field goal on the goal 1489 01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:20,800 Speaker 6: line in Buffalo before the half, make it six to three. 1490 01:03:21,120 --> 01:03:23,280 Speaker 6: Then they had the same exact situation later on in 1491 01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:25,400 Speaker 6: the season and they went for it on fourth down 1492 01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:27,400 Speaker 6: and scored a touchdown before the half in Tampa Bay. 1493 01:03:27,960 --> 01:03:29,560 Speaker 1: And he's the exact same situation. 1494 01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:32,959 Speaker 3: I guarantee you, and I know it's impossible to prove 1495 01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:36,160 Speaker 3: something that will never happen or hasn't happened. But if 1496 01:03:36,760 --> 01:03:39,240 Speaker 3: for you know, if for the next five years or 1497 01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:43,120 Speaker 3: you know, every team just went strictly by the analytics, 1498 01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:45,600 Speaker 3: in ten years, the analytics would change. 1499 01:03:47,800 --> 01:03:48,880 Speaker 2: Maybe see what I'm saying. 1500 01:03:49,120 --> 01:03:51,280 Speaker 6: I doe, Yeah, but I just want to Yeah, I 1501 01:03:51,880 --> 01:03:54,920 Speaker 6: think that I think that there's a happy median of it, 1502 01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:57,560 Speaker 6: and I think the Patriots have struck that exact middle 1503 01:03:57,760 --> 01:03:59,440 Speaker 6: of where and I think that's why there. 1504 01:03:59,360 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 2: To be that way. 1505 01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:03,200 Speaker 3: It's it's just common sense. You have to look at 1506 01:04:03,280 --> 01:04:07,600 Speaker 3: your situation in that particular game. Fine, look at history. 1507 01:04:07,960 --> 01:04:12,160 Speaker 3: But today is today, and Milton Williams just went out 1508 01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:15,200 Speaker 3: and he's gone for the game, and that affects my 1509 01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:16,120 Speaker 3: decision making. 1510 01:04:16,520 --> 01:04:18,000 Speaker 2: That didn't affect the analytics. 1511 01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:20,880 Speaker 8: That's why I like the way Mike in stretch have 1512 01:04:21,080 --> 01:04:23,600 Speaker 8: done it so far. You know, hopefully they'll continue because 1513 01:04:23,600 --> 01:04:27,360 Speaker 8: they do, I think, adjust based on what's actually happening 1514 01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:29,280 Speaker 8: that day as opposed to all of the data that 1515 01:04:29,360 --> 01:04:30,240 Speaker 8: they bring to the game. 1516 01:04:30,680 --> 01:04:32,800 Speaker 1: Yeah I have to go to Vrabel, but I just 1517 01:04:32,880 --> 01:04:33,440 Speaker 1: you don't have to. 1518 01:04:34,880 --> 01:04:35,520 Speaker 2: What's this day? 1519 01:04:38,640 --> 01:04:39,040 Speaker 1: Oh great? 1520 01:04:39,120 --> 01:04:43,080 Speaker 6: Cool, exactly what I wanted to hear. I just think 1521 01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:46,520 Speaker 6: that I wish it's different than like debating like should 1522 01:04:46,520 --> 01:04:46,960 Speaker 6: they have gone? 1523 01:04:46,960 --> 01:04:47,760 Speaker 1: Should they not? Ever? 1524 01:04:47,920 --> 01:04:50,160 Speaker 6: Like the down nine go for two things like you 1525 01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:52,240 Speaker 6: can have your own opinions on that. I just wish 1526 01:04:52,320 --> 01:04:56,480 Speaker 6: there was a better like what I just broke down 1527 01:04:56,520 --> 01:04:58,520 Speaker 6: of how what like what you actually put into the 1528 01:04:58,600 --> 01:05:00,800 Speaker 6: model and what it actually spits out. Like I don't 1529 01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:04,080 Speaker 6: think that there's a great grasp in the actual like 1530 01:05:04,520 --> 01:05:09,720 Speaker 6: national NFL zeitgeist of like how these analytics models work. 1531 01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:12,560 Speaker 6: Because Paul what Paul said, I understand. I think Paul 1532 01:05:13,080 --> 01:05:16,000 Speaker 6: is in the majority that think that it's just in 1533 01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:19,240 Speaker 6: any blanket fourth and two situation, you know what's the 1534 01:05:19,560 --> 01:05:22,920 Speaker 6: mass say, and there's there is more like factors that 1535 01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:24,120 Speaker 6: get plugged into the computer. 1536 01:05:24,240 --> 01:05:26,440 Speaker 8: They're just telling you when they put the numbers up 1537 01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:29,960 Speaker 8: on ESPN. They're not factoring in time and score. They're 1538 01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:31,640 Speaker 8: just saying this is the amount of this is the 1539 01:05:31,680 --> 01:05:32,600 Speaker 8: percentage of making it. 1540 01:05:32,840 --> 01:05:35,920 Speaker 1: I would like to know who like what they're doing then, 1541 01:05:36,040 --> 01:05:38,840 Speaker 1: because the teams, obviously I agree with you. 1542 01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:41,200 Speaker 8: I would just want to hear you, boy Alex, say 1543 01:05:41,240 --> 01:05:43,040 Speaker 8: that they don't do that, because I was always under 1544 01:05:43,040 --> 01:05:43,760 Speaker 8: the impression that they do. 1545 01:05:44,480 --> 01:05:47,720 Speaker 2: Even putting time and scoring isn't enough in my opinion. 1546 01:05:47,840 --> 01:05:49,040 Speaker 1: What else would you like them to put in? 1547 01:05:49,200 --> 01:05:52,400 Speaker 2: I'm sious, like, how has my defense been playing? 1548 01:05:52,480 --> 01:05:54,280 Speaker 1: Well, you can't. How do you quantify that? 1549 01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:55,440 Speaker 2: Like exactly? 1550 01:05:55,880 --> 01:05:58,240 Speaker 8: But I just know, but how my defense is playing 1551 01:05:58,320 --> 01:05:59,960 Speaker 8: this game, I could make an argument to do either 1552 01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:03,440 Speaker 8: one like I just sort of mapped it out. I 1553 01:06:03,760 --> 01:06:06,600 Speaker 8: could make a strong argument to defend Andy reached decision 1554 01:06:06,640 --> 01:06:07,840 Speaker 8: based on how his defense. 1555 01:06:07,640 --> 01:06:10,280 Speaker 2: Was in that particular case, right yeah, okay. 1556 01:06:10,080 --> 01:06:12,320 Speaker 8: But everybody else said the opposite because the way the 1557 01:06:12,360 --> 01:06:14,720 Speaker 8: defense was playing, I punted the ball, right yeah. 1558 01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:16,560 Speaker 6: I just think that I just wish that when we 1559 01:06:16,640 --> 01:06:19,000 Speaker 6: talk about these things there was a little bit more 1560 01:06:19,160 --> 01:06:21,280 Speaker 6: education on the part of the people doing the talking 1561 01:06:21,720 --> 01:06:24,520 Speaker 6: to explain exactly how the teams are using it, because 1562 01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:28,920 Speaker 6: it has such a negative like stigma right now of 1563 01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:34,320 Speaker 6: like anti like of analytics, and yet this is what's driving. 1564 01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:36,840 Speaker 1: Ninety nine point nine percent of the decisions, and. 1565 01:06:36,800 --> 01:06:39,960 Speaker 3: The analytics were created to give nerds a reason to 1566 01:06:40,040 --> 01:06:43,560 Speaker 3: be involved. They grew up cannot be able to be 1567 01:06:43,720 --> 01:06:46,400 Speaker 3: involved in sports, and they've created a way. And I 1568 01:06:46,480 --> 01:06:49,720 Speaker 3: give them credit. They're very creative to be now involved 1569 01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:53,520 Speaker 3: in sports is where they grew up, not having a 1570 01:06:53,640 --> 01:06:54,480 Speaker 3: role in sports. 1571 01:06:54,520 --> 01:06:57,160 Speaker 2: They were one who's the side? I mean, so I 1572 01:06:57,200 --> 01:06:58,160 Speaker 2: would marginalize. 1573 01:06:58,200 --> 01:07:00,280 Speaker 3: I guess now they've become right in the middle, love 1574 01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:03,240 Speaker 3: it because they've creatively figured out a way to become 1575 01:07:03,320 --> 01:07:04,160 Speaker 3: involved in sports. 1576 01:07:04,280 --> 01:07:08,240 Speaker 2: All credit goes to them. Well, we just attack. 1577 01:07:10,040 --> 01:07:14,400 Speaker 1: At the So before you go real quick, Yes, you'd 1578 01:07:14,440 --> 01:07:14,959 Speaker 1: have to start. 1579 01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:16,920 Speaker 8: You'd have to do a lot to convince me that 1580 01:07:17,040 --> 01:07:20,360 Speaker 8: Dan Campbell was punching in time and score in the 1581 01:07:20,480 --> 01:07:22,440 Speaker 8: NFC Championship Game a couple of years ago. 1582 01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:26,320 Speaker 1: With a seventeen point lead. Yeah. I don't know. 1583 01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:29,520 Speaker 6: I I know that their nerds do. I don't know 1584 01:07:29,600 --> 01:07:32,840 Speaker 6: what Dan Campbell goes by. That's Dan Campbell question. But 1585 01:07:33,000 --> 01:07:36,680 Speaker 6: I again, it's not so much about like I just 1586 01:07:36,800 --> 01:07:40,200 Speaker 6: wish that we educated people better on because I'm telling 1587 01:07:40,280 --> 01:07:43,439 Speaker 6: you that all thirty two teams now have a nerd 1588 01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:46,360 Speaker 6: in the coaches booth that's telling them what the math 1589 01:07:46,480 --> 01:07:49,960 Speaker 6: is telling them. So like, this is what's driving the decisions. 1590 01:07:50,720 --> 01:07:53,920 Speaker 6: So instead of doing the Fred and finger wagging at it, like, 1591 01:07:54,080 --> 01:07:55,520 Speaker 6: let's just try to explain. 1592 01:07:56,760 --> 01:07:58,280 Speaker 1: Let's just try to explain it to people. 1593 01:07:58,760 --> 01:08:01,040 Speaker 6: You don't have to agree with it, yeah, but let's 1594 01:08:01,040 --> 01:08:03,040 Speaker 6: at least get the right messaging out there of this 1595 01:08:03,240 --> 01:08:04,280 Speaker 6: is what's going into it. 1596 01:08:04,600 --> 01:08:06,160 Speaker 1: I know what goes into it, so then you can 1597 01:08:06,200 --> 01:08:06,960 Speaker 1: make the decision. 1598 01:08:07,000 --> 01:08:09,160 Speaker 6: So I actually say, and I'm not saying you have 1599 01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:11,960 Speaker 6: to agree, I'm just saying, like, I just don't think 1600 01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:14,920 Speaker 6: that there's a very good education of what actually is happening. 1601 01:08:15,400 --> 01:08:16,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think. 1602 01:08:16,280 --> 01:08:18,040 Speaker 7: Well, it's the assumption that people are punching numbers in 1603 01:08:18,080 --> 01:08:20,360 Speaker 7: a computer and then whatever it says they're just doing. 1604 01:08:20,880 --> 01:08:23,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, thank you, all right. 1605 01:08:24,240 --> 01:08:26,400 Speaker 8: And I would say like as a whole, and this 1606 01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:29,720 Speaker 8: is people might be surprised because while I've not done 1607 01:08:29,760 --> 01:08:32,920 Speaker 8: what Fred just did to dismiss the the the uh 1608 01:08:33,360 --> 01:08:35,800 Speaker 8: oh you want you want to do the nerds, I 1609 01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:38,280 Speaker 8: I generally do push back against the nerds a lot. 1610 01:08:38,920 --> 01:08:42,439 Speaker 8: I love that the nerds have at least allowed the 1611 01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:44,400 Speaker 8: coaches to open their minds a little bit and be 1612 01:08:44,439 --> 01:08:46,360 Speaker 8: a little bit more creative when it comes to some 1613 01:08:46,439 --> 01:08:48,599 Speaker 8: of these in game decisions. I think that's a good 1614 01:08:48,680 --> 01:08:51,680 Speaker 8: development for the league. Too often it was, well, it's 1615 01:08:51,760 --> 01:08:54,720 Speaker 8: fourth down, we kick here, whether it be field goal 1616 01:08:54,880 --> 01:08:56,759 Speaker 8: or punt, let's go to Mike Vrabel. 1617 01:08:57,360 --> 01:09:03,360 Speaker 5: Send anything we can. Well, wishes to Kevin and Letitia Falk. 1618 01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:06,960 Speaker 5: Obviously we're all heartbroken. Kevin was a teammate. He's a 1619 01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:11,760 Speaker 5: huge part of this legacy here, this football team, and 1620 01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:15,760 Speaker 5: you know the impact that he made and here and 1621 01:09:16,080 --> 01:09:18,479 Speaker 5: coaching in college, and how much he loved LSU. And 1622 01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:21,160 Speaker 5: I'm sure that they like there's no words to describe 1623 01:09:21,200 --> 01:09:24,599 Speaker 5: what they're going through, but just wanted to make sure 1624 01:09:24,680 --> 01:09:29,160 Speaker 5: that everybody knows that we care deeply about Kevin and 1625 01:09:29,240 --> 01:09:31,599 Speaker 5: his family, and our thoughts and our prayers are with them. 1626 01:09:31,720 --> 01:09:37,160 Speaker 5: So obviously a tough time for that, but we have to, 1627 01:09:37,439 --> 01:09:39,960 Speaker 5: you know, prepare here. I appreciate it. 1628 01:09:40,240 --> 01:09:46,880 Speaker 6: Thank you, given mistakes of the atmosphere, the opponent win 1629 01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:50,280 Speaker 6: or lose. Do you see this game as kind of being. 1630 01:09:50,400 --> 01:09:52,439 Speaker 1: Valuable prep for what might apply. 1631 01:09:52,400 --> 01:09:55,439 Speaker 5: Ahead assuming you get in Puss Well, I hope that 1632 01:09:55,560 --> 01:09:58,720 Speaker 5: everything we do we only get seventeen opportunities, right, so 1633 01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:01,160 Speaker 5: that all of that hap us to be valuable. Prep 1634 01:10:04,720 --> 01:10:06,680 Speaker 5: you know, they all they all count the same at 1635 01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:10,160 Speaker 5: the end. You know, this is a great stage that 1636 01:10:10,240 --> 01:10:14,080 Speaker 5: we put ourselves on and that's exciting. But obviously hopefully 1637 01:10:14,160 --> 01:10:19,000 Speaker 5: we've been able to draw from from different opportunities that 1638 01:10:19,120 --> 01:10:22,800 Speaker 5: we've had too to help us. And so what we're 1639 01:10:22,840 --> 01:10:27,240 Speaker 5: focused on is is the previous opportunities that can help 1640 01:10:27,320 --> 01:10:30,760 Speaker 5: us this week, and then whatever we're able to learn 1641 01:10:31,840 --> 01:10:34,080 Speaker 5: from the game on Sunday going forward to help us 1642 01:10:34,120 --> 01:10:35,479 Speaker 5: the next week. That's what we're trying to do. 1643 01:10:36,240 --> 01:10:37,960 Speaker 2: Like what are some of the challenges of the second 1644 01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:39,879 Speaker 2: meeting in the the vision that you've seen. 1645 01:10:39,720 --> 01:10:45,479 Speaker 5: Over the years, they've they've changed, they've continued to evolve, 1646 01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:50,680 Speaker 5: and you know, they've continued to improve. And again we 1647 01:10:50,800 --> 01:10:53,840 Speaker 5: talked about the respect that that we have for them 1648 01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:59,280 Speaker 5: as a as a football team. Players and coaches. Just 1649 01:10:59,720 --> 01:11:02,840 Speaker 5: draw on some games here in the past. I mean, 1650 01:11:02,880 --> 01:11:06,400 Speaker 5: it's twenty to ten. In our game, they didn't bat 1651 01:11:06,479 --> 01:11:08,120 Speaker 5: an eye. They came back and tied it in the 1652 01:11:08,160 --> 01:11:10,760 Speaker 5: fourth quarter. We were up two scores in the fourth quarter. 1653 01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:14,120 Speaker 5: You know, we needed our best execution and kick to 1654 01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:17,800 Speaker 5: win it. Well, it was the Tampa Bay game, you know, 1655 01:11:17,960 --> 01:11:24,680 Speaker 5: being down and then winning the game going away, Pittsburgh 1656 01:11:24,840 --> 01:11:27,519 Speaker 5: down seven to three and then really just played tremendous 1657 01:11:27,520 --> 01:11:31,200 Speaker 5: football in a second half, and then last week to 1658 01:11:31,400 --> 01:11:33,760 Speaker 5: score a game with eight minutes to go in the 1659 01:11:33,840 --> 01:11:37,200 Speaker 5: fourth quarter. So never any panic over there. That's a 1660 01:11:37,320 --> 01:11:40,800 Speaker 5: veteran team. This is They're familiar with their program. So 1661 01:11:41,760 --> 01:11:44,880 Speaker 5: however the game unfolds, it'll we'll have to do everything 1662 01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:49,280 Speaker 5: that we can to play the entire four quarters or 1663 01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:51,720 Speaker 5: then some if we need to. Mike, I know that 1664 01:11:52,560 --> 01:11:54,719 Speaker 5: Buffalo is chalented all across the board. 1665 01:11:54,800 --> 01:11:57,719 Speaker 17: But in terms of their offense, how important did Josh 1666 01:11:57,760 --> 01:11:59,720 Speaker 17: Allen is the tight end part of that? 1667 01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:03,000 Speaker 5: That's I think that's grown. I think that you know, 1668 01:12:03,040 --> 01:12:05,280 Speaker 5: I mean, you could see when ken Kaid's back out there, 1669 01:12:05,360 --> 01:12:09,120 Speaker 5: the the matchup and his skill set and in the 1670 01:12:09,200 --> 01:12:14,519 Speaker 5: passing game, you know, great speed and athleticism, catch radius, 1671 01:12:16,080 --> 01:12:21,760 Speaker 5: very quarterback friendly. Obviously Dawson does a little bit of both, 1672 01:12:23,439 --> 01:12:25,280 Speaker 5: and the Hawes has just you know, been able to 1673 01:12:25,920 --> 01:12:32,240 Speaker 5: really I would say, not only neutralized, but moved the 1674 01:12:32,320 --> 01:12:36,920 Speaker 5: line of scrimmage on his responsibilities, and I think they 1675 01:12:37,040 --> 01:12:41,200 Speaker 5: just continued to evolve in that regard and using you know, 1676 01:12:41,479 --> 01:12:42,360 Speaker 5: all three of those. 1677 01:12:42,240 --> 01:12:45,920 Speaker 1: Guys, like the people in Las Vegas, have you guys 1678 01:12:46,080 --> 01:12:47,000 Speaker 1: as underdogs? 1679 01:12:47,160 --> 01:12:47,640 Speaker 5: Sunday An? 1680 01:12:47,800 --> 01:12:48,479 Speaker 1: Who are the people? 1681 01:12:48,600 --> 01:12:48,760 Speaker 5: Ben? 1682 01:12:50,280 --> 01:12:50,439 Speaker 10: There? 1683 01:12:50,520 --> 01:12:54,040 Speaker 5: You go are? They're called odds makers, not people. There's 1684 01:12:54,040 --> 01:12:56,080 Speaker 5: a lot of people in Las Vegas like they only 1685 01:12:56,479 --> 01:12:58,240 Speaker 5: there's only a few of them that they trust to 1686 01:12:59,080 --> 01:12:59,719 Speaker 5: set the line. 1687 01:13:00,320 --> 01:13:03,200 Speaker 1: So do you pay attention to that? I mean, do 1688 01:13:03,320 --> 01:13:03,840 Speaker 1: you notice that? 1689 01:13:04,600 --> 01:13:06,320 Speaker 10: M No? 1690 01:13:06,560 --> 01:13:09,040 Speaker 5: I mean again it gets brought to attention. I don't 1691 01:13:09,080 --> 01:13:13,400 Speaker 5: think that, you know. I mean it's every week you see, 1692 01:13:15,160 --> 01:13:18,479 Speaker 5: you know in this league that records really don't mean anything, 1693 01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:23,559 Speaker 5: and you know, the point spreads and survivor polls get 1694 01:13:23,640 --> 01:13:26,120 Speaker 5: blown up every week and all that other stuff. So 1695 01:13:27,120 --> 01:13:29,640 Speaker 5: we're just trying to focus on our preparation here and 1696 01:13:29,680 --> 01:13:33,519 Speaker 5: get back into it. You know, had a good day Monday, 1697 01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:37,920 Speaker 5: excited about the meetings thus far today and then you know, 1698 01:13:38,240 --> 01:13:42,280 Speaker 5: progressed through the week, been out for the last couple 1699 01:13:42,320 --> 01:13:42,679 Speaker 5: of games. 1700 01:13:42,720 --> 01:13:44,320 Speaker 1: What have you seen the proper Jonsters? 1701 01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:45,920 Speaker 10: Because some good guys like Quarter and Eric. 1702 01:13:47,600 --> 01:13:50,599 Speaker 5: Yeah, and I think Corey's continue to improve and play 1703 01:13:50,600 --> 01:13:53,320 Speaker 5: a lot of football for us and Eric's you know, 1704 01:13:53,439 --> 01:13:56,080 Speaker 5: taking the opportunities on Thursdays that we've had and those 1705 01:13:56,120 --> 01:14:00,920 Speaker 5: competitive practices to get better and to get better, and 1706 01:14:01,640 --> 01:14:04,040 Speaker 5: you know, again we'll need everybody up front. You know 1707 01:14:04,760 --> 01:14:08,120 Speaker 5: how important the ability to stop the run is this week, 1708 01:14:08,240 --> 01:14:10,960 Speaker 5: and you know that's just a large part of what 1709 01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:12,720 Speaker 5: they do. They have a lot of confidence in it. 1710 01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:14,960 Speaker 5: Not the only thing that they do. They do a 1711 01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:18,320 Speaker 5: lot of things well, but you know, certainly they're gonna 1712 01:14:18,360 --> 01:14:21,559 Speaker 5: run it until you stop them, and then they're gonna 1713 01:14:21,560 --> 01:14:22,400 Speaker 5: have everything off of it. 1714 01:14:23,960 --> 01:14:27,400 Speaker 12: Josh Allen's long touchdown around last week, so it was 1715 01:14:27,400 --> 01:14:29,799 Speaker 12: a defensive back who was still covering a wide receiver. 1716 01:14:30,640 --> 01:14:33,599 Speaker 12: Is Josh Allen's running into the end zone And I'm 1717 01:14:33,600 --> 01:14:35,720 Speaker 12: just thinking on that's the perfect example why you don't 1718 01:14:35,720 --> 01:14:38,000 Speaker 12: want to play man against Alan. 1719 01:14:38,040 --> 01:14:40,680 Speaker 1: Does he remove things that you can do defensively because of. 1720 01:14:40,720 --> 01:14:43,120 Speaker 5: His worth killing Well, you just have to Again, I 1721 01:14:43,160 --> 01:14:45,640 Speaker 5: don't think you can sit in any one thing. And 1722 01:14:47,080 --> 01:14:49,600 Speaker 5: certainly there's situations where you have to play man in 1723 01:14:49,680 --> 01:14:54,640 Speaker 5: this league and you have to be on body. But 1724 01:14:54,760 --> 01:14:56,920 Speaker 5: then again there's other things that then have to account 1725 01:14:56,960 --> 01:15:00,760 Speaker 5: when you have an athletic quarterback you're gonna account for 1726 01:15:00,800 --> 01:15:03,960 Speaker 5: the extra gap or the ability to scramble, uh to 1727 01:15:04,280 --> 01:15:08,559 Speaker 5: extend plays and all those different things. So I don't 1728 01:15:08,560 --> 01:15:11,759 Speaker 5: think that there's one particular coverage or defense or blitz 1729 01:15:11,800 --> 01:15:14,720 Speaker 5: that you can sit there and be in the entire game. 1730 01:15:14,800 --> 01:15:18,760 Speaker 5: I think it's about picking the opportunities and then you know, 1731 01:15:18,800 --> 01:15:22,000 Speaker 5: when you get an opportunity to make a play on him, 1732 01:15:22,040 --> 01:15:24,479 Speaker 5: you got to do everything that you can to you know, 1733 01:15:24,560 --> 01:15:26,240 Speaker 5: to get him on the ground and not jump when 1734 01:15:26,240 --> 01:15:29,320 Speaker 5: he pumped fakes or fall down when he's steph arms 1735 01:15:29,360 --> 01:15:30,080 Speaker 5: you or anything else. 1736 01:15:31,439 --> 01:15:34,439 Speaker 20: Five when you were you held kamstupt on your fifty 1737 01:15:34,960 --> 01:15:35,639 Speaker 20: rushing yards. 1738 01:15:35,920 --> 01:15:37,519 Speaker 6: I'm just curious when you look back at that film, 1739 01:15:37,560 --> 01:15:40,920 Speaker 6: what allowed defense to be so effective in limiting that 1740 01:15:41,000 --> 01:15:41,400 Speaker 6: run game? 1741 01:15:43,240 --> 01:15:44,960 Speaker 5: Well, I mean, I think the way that we got 1742 01:15:45,040 --> 01:15:46,800 Speaker 5: you know, we were able to get a lead there 1743 01:15:46,920 --> 01:15:50,200 Speaker 5: and probably limited some of the carries in the second half, 1744 01:15:50,280 --> 01:15:53,280 Speaker 5: and that the way that the game unfolded. But you know, 1745 01:15:53,640 --> 01:15:56,040 Speaker 5: I think early on in the ability for our offense 1746 01:15:56,120 --> 01:16:00,960 Speaker 5: to you possess the ball, you know, we'll have to 1747 01:16:01,040 --> 01:16:03,400 Speaker 5: do everything we did in that game and then some 1748 01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:07,880 Speaker 5: to you know, try to neutralize him in the run game. 1749 01:16:08,360 --> 01:16:11,040 Speaker 2: I'll enjoyable has been to coach Mac Hollins this season 1750 01:16:11,080 --> 01:16:11,559 Speaker 2: and what's he. 1751 01:16:11,600 --> 01:16:12,280 Speaker 1: Meant to his team? 1752 01:16:12,680 --> 01:16:15,320 Speaker 5: Mat brings a great spirit, you know, to work every day. 1753 01:16:16,280 --> 01:16:19,800 Speaker 5: It's a great teammate. You know. I actually showed a clip, 1754 01:16:20,439 --> 01:16:22,679 Speaker 5: you know, from the first game on a kickoff coverage 1755 01:16:22,720 --> 01:16:26,439 Speaker 5: and maxed over there, excited and not going in the game, 1756 01:16:26,520 --> 01:16:31,639 Speaker 5: but he's into it. Somebody made a tackle and Max 1757 01:16:31,760 --> 01:16:34,000 Speaker 5: the first one cheering on the sidelines. And those are 1758 01:16:34,040 --> 01:16:36,720 Speaker 5: the little things that that mean a lot, I think 1759 01:16:36,800 --> 01:16:40,160 Speaker 5: to me. So again, we we asked him to do 1760 01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:42,760 Speaker 5: a lot of different things, and you know, again, I 1761 01:16:42,840 --> 01:16:44,800 Speaker 5: think just the spirit that he brings to work and 1762 01:16:45,600 --> 01:16:46,560 Speaker 5: the teammate that he is. 1763 01:16:47,320 --> 01:16:49,240 Speaker 4: Believe the Bills us fought me in protection to one 1764 01:16:49,240 --> 01:16:50,479 Speaker 4: of the highest rates in the league. 1765 01:16:50,600 --> 01:16:52,080 Speaker 5: What allows him to live in that world? 1766 01:16:52,160 --> 01:16:54,320 Speaker 1: And also how do you weigh the balance between wanted. 1767 01:16:54,080 --> 01:16:56,080 Speaker 5: To play coverage and rushing against that kind of stame. 1768 01:16:58,640 --> 01:17:01,320 Speaker 5: I mean, I think when a quarterback and again you 1769 01:17:01,439 --> 01:17:05,240 Speaker 5: bring six and they block five quarterbacks got the sixth one, 1770 01:17:05,400 --> 01:17:11,400 Speaker 5: so he pump fakes him or spins or stiff arms him. 1771 01:17:13,840 --> 01:17:15,960 Speaker 5: You know, I think Josh just has a good ability 1772 01:17:16,040 --> 01:17:21,519 Speaker 5: to know when he's hot or no, you know where 1773 01:17:21,560 --> 01:17:24,360 Speaker 5: he needs to go with football, and and you know, 1774 01:17:24,840 --> 01:17:26,640 Speaker 5: even if it's a four man rush, I don't think 1775 01:17:26,680 --> 01:17:30,800 Speaker 5: he ever really panics and he's able to extend or 1776 01:17:31,120 --> 01:17:33,760 Speaker 5: just find where he wants to go with football and 1777 01:17:34,439 --> 01:17:39,160 Speaker 5: when they do get five out and so. And then 1778 01:17:39,160 --> 01:17:43,040 Speaker 5: the other question was what did you ask me about 1779 01:17:43,400 --> 01:17:45,879 Speaker 5: when do we need to pressure and when we decide 1780 01:17:45,880 --> 01:17:50,519 Speaker 5: to just again we have to mix it up. I 1781 01:17:50,640 --> 01:17:56,120 Speaker 5: think you just have to, huh, you know, pick and 1782 01:17:56,200 --> 01:17:58,280 Speaker 5: choose your spots. And again, you wanna be sound and 1783 01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:00,760 Speaker 5: everything that you do, you know, you don't want to 1784 01:18:01,880 --> 01:18:03,920 Speaker 5: just leave it up to chance and hope that he's 1785 01:18:03,960 --> 01:18:05,680 Speaker 5: not gonna find somebody. You want to make sure that 1786 01:18:05,760 --> 01:18:08,200 Speaker 5: everybody's covered or that zones are accounted for and that 1787 01:18:09,400 --> 01:18:12,439 Speaker 5: you know, the rush lanes are sound and that you 1788 01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:17,320 Speaker 5: have an ability to you know, defend and you can't 1789 01:18:17,520 --> 01:18:20,240 Speaker 5: be cautious, but you have to, you know, be sound. 1790 01:18:20,280 --> 01:18:21,559 Speaker 5: I think like all your. 1791 01:18:21,479 --> 01:18:24,400 Speaker 10: Time in the league, what common allies have you seen, 1792 01:18:24,720 --> 01:18:27,160 Speaker 10: the rivalries you've participated in, do you see any of 1793 01:18:27,200 --> 01:18:29,160 Speaker 10: those elements possibly here with Bubbalo? 1794 01:18:31,640 --> 01:18:34,720 Speaker 5: M I just got here. So I mean again, I 1795 01:18:34,840 --> 01:18:37,000 Speaker 5: know that they've won the division five years in a row. 1796 01:18:37,720 --> 01:18:39,960 Speaker 5: I don't think there's really much of a rivalry for 1797 01:18:40,560 --> 01:18:43,360 Speaker 5: those years. Maybe not. I don't know. I wasn't paying 1798 01:18:43,400 --> 01:18:46,920 Speaker 5: any attention to it. I'm just focused on a very 1799 01:18:46,960 --> 01:18:51,320 Speaker 5: good football team that you know is used to winning, 1800 01:18:51,560 --> 01:18:56,320 Speaker 5: and they're determined and they're resilient, and you know we'll 1801 01:18:56,360 --> 01:18:57,120 Speaker 5: have to be at our best. 1802 01:18:57,960 --> 01:19:01,120 Speaker 10: So mentioned sound rush lanes you're blitzing or not? And 1803 01:19:01,560 --> 01:19:04,160 Speaker 10: how important is it this week against Allen to try to. 1804 01:19:04,280 --> 01:19:05,080 Speaker 1: Keep him in the pocket. 1805 01:19:07,040 --> 01:19:08,479 Speaker 5: Well, you keep me in the pocket, and he's just 1806 01:19:08,520 --> 01:19:10,640 Speaker 5: gonna stand there and wait for somebody to uncover. So 1807 01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:14,360 Speaker 5: you know, I mean again that's there. I mean you 1808 01:19:14,400 --> 01:19:16,040 Speaker 5: can keep me in the pocket. You can stand there 1809 01:19:16,040 --> 01:19:17,800 Speaker 5: and we can we can all just stand there and 1810 01:19:18,600 --> 01:19:22,160 Speaker 5: he'll do you know, he'll do this, And I mean 1811 01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:27,400 Speaker 5: you have to just again, coordinated and relentless is probably 1812 01:19:27,520 --> 01:19:33,280 Speaker 5: the best way to to phrase it. And because again 1813 01:19:33,360 --> 01:19:34,920 Speaker 5: you say we'll keep me in the pocket, and then 1814 01:19:34,960 --> 01:19:37,200 Speaker 5: guys are just standing there and they're cautious, and we 1815 01:19:37,280 --> 01:19:39,400 Speaker 5: don't want to we want to coach that way. We 1816 01:19:39,680 --> 01:19:44,000 Speaker 5: want to make sure that we're trying to remain aggressive. 1817 01:19:44,360 --> 01:19:49,519 Speaker 5: But certainly sound and you know when he does extend, 1818 01:19:49,560 --> 01:19:52,360 Speaker 5: then we're gonna need a plaster and you know, have guys, 1819 01:19:52,600 --> 01:19:54,680 Speaker 5: you know, be able to to come up and help us. 1820 01:19:55,240 --> 01:19:58,560 Speaker 8: Like, how do you feel about the offense's ability to 1821 01:19:58,680 --> 01:20:01,560 Speaker 8: improve some of the short yard and red zone and 1822 01:20:01,600 --> 01:20:03,200 Speaker 8: issues that have acrop the last few weeks? 1823 01:20:05,560 --> 01:20:07,479 Speaker 5: Feel good? Feel good like I do about everything that 1824 01:20:07,520 --> 01:20:10,360 Speaker 5: we're trying to coach and improve. And you know, there's 1825 01:20:10,400 --> 01:20:12,280 Speaker 5: things that we've done really well, there's things that we've 1826 01:20:12,320 --> 01:20:18,840 Speaker 5: done okay. So again, whatever situation it is that comes up, 1827 01:20:18,920 --> 01:20:23,400 Speaker 5: will have to be prepared for it and be able 1828 01:20:23,479 --> 01:20:27,840 Speaker 5: to extend drives no matter what the down and distance is. 1829 01:20:27,920 --> 01:20:33,080 Speaker 5: And I think most importantly, you know, have a understanding 1830 01:20:33,120 --> 01:20:36,000 Speaker 5: of how critical the red zone is when you get 1831 01:20:36,040 --> 01:20:39,960 Speaker 5: down there, and that everything that we've been preaching and 1832 01:20:40,040 --> 01:20:44,160 Speaker 5: talking about will have to continue to execute and make 1833 01:20:44,240 --> 01:20:48,960 Speaker 5: sure that we're doing everything we can to get touchdowns 1834 01:20:48,960 --> 01:20:52,559 Speaker 5: and the difference that that makes and close ball games 1835 01:20:52,720 --> 01:20:55,680 Speaker 5: and force them to kick field goals. The same thing 1836 01:20:55,720 --> 01:20:59,479 Speaker 5: can be said defensively. So I think we were both 1837 01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:02,920 Speaker 5: too for or last game. And you know again that 1838 01:21:03,520 --> 01:21:06,760 Speaker 5: in a close game, that's about what it turned out 1839 01:21:06,800 --> 01:21:08,560 Speaker 5: to be we made a kick at the end, and 1840 01:21:08,680 --> 01:21:10,360 Speaker 5: so if we can try to get him the kickfield 1841 01:21:10,400 --> 01:21:13,360 Speaker 5: goals or attemp field goals, and we'll have to try 1842 01:21:13,400 --> 01:21:15,000 Speaker 5: to do everything we can to score touchdowns. 1843 01:21:15,439 --> 01:21:17,880 Speaker 10: Joe Brady the way he calls the game, obviously they're 1844 01:21:17,920 --> 01:21:19,439 Speaker 10: confident of the run game. And Josh, do you see 1845 01:21:19,479 --> 01:21:21,759 Speaker 10: them as more of a game plan week tweak offense 1846 01:21:21,840 --> 01:21:22,240 Speaker 10: or kind of do. 1847 01:21:22,360 --> 01:21:24,200 Speaker 1: What we do operation? 1848 01:21:25,080 --> 01:21:26,960 Speaker 5: I mean, I think there's elements of both. I think 1849 01:21:27,000 --> 01:21:29,439 Speaker 5: that they have their stuff that's staple that they dress 1850 01:21:29,520 --> 01:21:32,160 Speaker 5: up a little bit, and they have this sometimes some 1851 01:21:32,320 --> 01:21:36,800 Speaker 5: game plan plays that that show up.

This is how you do it. 2006 01:29:12,880 --> 01:29:13,400 Speaker 5: How do you do it? 2007 01:29:14,600 --> 01:29:18,439 Speaker 3: They open up a car and it says, go into 2008 01:29:18,520 --> 01:29:21,880 Speaker 3: the other room to see what this is. So that 2009 01:29:21,960 --> 01:29:23,760 Speaker 3: way you don't have to worry about it sitting there. 2010 01:29:23,800 --> 01:29:26,160 Speaker 3: It's like, wha, that's a TV. You put it in enough, 2011 01:29:26,240 --> 01:29:27,960 Speaker 3: you hide it somewhere in the house and then they 2012 01:29:28,040 --> 01:29:29,600 Speaker 3: have to go get it and then they see it. 2013 01:29:29,840 --> 01:29:32,400 Speaker 1: Oh, so don't wrap it. You don't have to wrap it, right, Yeah. 2014 01:29:32,439 --> 01:29:34,040 Speaker 1: I think we'll probably wrap it, okay. 2015 01:29:34,160 --> 01:29:37,560 Speaker 8: I think that Beth is very anti Christmas gifts that 2016 01:29:37,600 --> 01:29:41,320 Speaker 8: aren't wrapped, Like even like stocking stuffers need to be right. 2017 01:29:41,200 --> 01:29:42,519 Speaker 3: Well, I guess you can still wrap it, but you 2018 01:29:42,640 --> 01:29:44,320 Speaker 3: put it in the other room, so it's not evident 2019 01:29:44,560 --> 01:29:46,760 Speaker 3: it's not sitting out there that Oh this is a TV. 2020 01:29:47,800 --> 01:29:48,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I don't know. It could be a 2021 01:29:49,000 --> 01:29:50,840 Speaker 1: lot of things. Okay, it does look like a TV, 2022 01:29:50,960 --> 01:29:52,960 Speaker 1: though I would agree it's kind of hard to say. 2023 01:29:53,040 --> 01:29:54,320 Speaker 1: You ever, I don't think that's a TV. 2024 01:29:54,760 --> 01:29:58,040 Speaker 2: You ever listen to Sebastian Menaschoolo in a medium. 2025 01:29:58,479 --> 01:30:01,040 Speaker 3: Yes, he's got a funny bit where his father because 2026 01:30:01,080 --> 01:30:02,280 Speaker 3: everything his father looks at. 2027 01:30:02,439 --> 01:30:04,519 Speaker 2: How much you pay for that? And he goes, yes, 2028 01:30:05,280 --> 01:30:07,519 Speaker 2: you pick what I could have made that. You can 2029 01:30:07,640 --> 01:30:08,960 Speaker 2: make a seventy five inch TV. 2030 01:30:09,040 --> 01:30:10,120 Speaker 1: You could have made it for a buck. 2031 01:30:10,600 --> 01:30:12,200 Speaker 2: You could make a seventy five inch TV. 2032 01:30:13,200 --> 01:30:15,000 Speaker 1: I love some of those. Those bits are great. 2033 01:30:15,160 --> 01:30:17,840 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, all right, eight five five pass five hundred. 2034 01:30:18,160 --> 01:30:20,640 Speaker 3: Evan has gone because you know, he needs to go 2035 01:30:21,479 --> 01:30:23,720 Speaker 3: talk to the players and deuces out there because he 2036 01:30:23,840 --> 01:30:24,840 Speaker 3: needs to talk to the players. 2037 01:30:24,920 --> 01:30:27,320 Speaker 2: But they'll be back, right, Oh No, Evan won't be. 2038 01:30:27,439 --> 01:30:30,839 Speaker 8: Yeah, Mike will be and Evan. I'm not sure Evan's 2039 01:30:30,840 --> 01:30:33,400 Speaker 8: coming back tomorrow. You little mean to him before the break? 2040 01:30:33,520 --> 01:30:35,320 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you think I heard him in two. I 2041 01:30:35,360 --> 01:30:37,479 Speaker 3: think I heard him with the analytics don't shine. 2042 01:30:38,200 --> 01:30:42,439 Speaker 8: I think you hurt his feelings with the analytics. Don't shine. 2043 01:30:42,520 --> 01:30:44,280 Speaker 2: He's gonna analytics ass right now. 2044 01:30:45,280 --> 01:30:45,519 Speaker 1: Yeah. 2045 01:30:45,640 --> 01:30:50,800 Speaker 8: I mean, like I said, I do think there the 2046 01:30:51,040 --> 01:30:54,000 Speaker 8: the infusion of the nerds. I think overall has been 2047 01:30:54,040 --> 01:30:56,920 Speaker 8: a very good thing for the NFL because I think 2048 01:30:56,960 --> 01:30:59,640 Speaker 8: it has allowed coaches to show more creativity and not 2049 01:30:59,760 --> 01:31:03,640 Speaker 8: just do what they've always done for decades. I do 2050 01:31:03,800 --> 01:31:05,760 Speaker 8: think there needs to be a balance. I think the 2051 01:31:05,880 --> 01:31:10,719 Speaker 8: best coaches have demonstrated the ability to adapt and change 2052 01:31:10,760 --> 01:31:13,000 Speaker 8: based on what's going on. And like I said, I 2053 01:31:13,040 --> 01:31:15,880 Speaker 8: think that's one thing that I would give Mike Rabel 2054 01:31:18,040 --> 01:31:20,200 Speaker 8: and edge in is if the game unfolds in a 2055 01:31:20,240 --> 01:31:22,400 Speaker 8: certain way. I don't think we're going to be necessarily 2056 01:31:23,080 --> 01:31:25,600 Speaker 8: critiquing his decisions. I haven't agreed with every one of 2057 01:31:25,640 --> 01:31:26,640 Speaker 8: them that he's made this year. 2058 01:31:26,760 --> 01:31:26,960 Speaker 5: Yep. 2059 01:31:27,240 --> 01:31:29,120 Speaker 8: I'm not telling you that everything that they've done the 2060 01:31:29,160 --> 01:31:30,160 Speaker 8: Patriots have done well. 2061 01:31:30,200 --> 01:31:31,560 Speaker 1: I agree with that. 2062 01:31:31,960 --> 01:31:34,080 Speaker 8: The one that they went for from their own like 2063 01:31:34,240 --> 01:31:36,200 Speaker 8: fifteen yard line early in the year, I think it 2064 01:31:36,200 --> 01:31:36,800 Speaker 8: was Pittsburgh. 2065 01:31:36,960 --> 01:31:38,799 Speaker 1: They ended up getting it. I thought that was insane. 2066 01:31:40,200 --> 01:31:41,800 Speaker 1: But for the most part. 2067 01:31:41,840 --> 01:31:44,559 Speaker 8: I think his ability to adapt, based on the way 2068 01:31:44,640 --> 01:31:48,000 Speaker 8: the game is unfolding, I think has been insane. Well 2069 01:31:48,040 --> 01:31:50,120 Speaker 8: it's been different, you know what I mean. It's not 2070 01:31:50,320 --> 01:31:52,880 Speaker 8: just that it's not like, well, I'm going for it 2071 01:31:52,960 --> 01:31:54,680 Speaker 8: every time because the book tells me to go for it. 2072 01:31:54,960 --> 01:31:56,519 Speaker 8: He's shown the ability to adapt. 2073 01:31:57,000 --> 01:32:00,800 Speaker 3: He's a reasonable and common sense person. In other words, 2074 01:32:01,600 --> 01:32:04,559 Speaker 3: Jeffrey and Canada writes in first Off, great to hear 2075 01:32:04,680 --> 01:32:07,600 Speaker 3: all the fellow Canadians chiming in. Today must be a 2076 01:32:07,680 --> 01:32:08,559 Speaker 3: day off up in canon. 2077 01:32:08,600 --> 01:32:10,479 Speaker 8: We did get a lot of Canadian phone calls today. 2078 01:32:10,560 --> 01:32:11,120 Speaker 2: Y's weird. 2079 01:32:11,880 --> 01:32:14,760 Speaker 3: The Patriots do have a large following Canada, especially on 2080 01:32:14,840 --> 01:32:18,240 Speaker 3: the East coast. Bills are a Toronto team. I believe 2081 01:32:18,280 --> 01:32:21,360 Speaker 3: a third of their season tickets are owned by Canadians. However, 2082 01:32:22,080 --> 01:32:26,040 Speaker 3: I must defend Jordan who called Evan did say shootout 2083 01:32:26,720 --> 01:32:29,360 Speaker 3: was how we'd win, And maybe he misspoke, but he 2084 01:32:29,479 --> 01:32:32,400 Speaker 3: said he's not worried about the Texans or Broncos because 2085 01:32:32,400 --> 01:32:35,200 Speaker 3: they have weaker offenses, which I'm not saying he's wrong, 2086 01:32:35,520 --> 01:32:36,839 Speaker 3: but the caller was correct. 2087 01:32:37,040 --> 01:32:37,240 Speaker 5: Yeah. 2088 01:32:37,240 --> 01:32:40,080 Speaker 8: I don't remember what Evans said in terms of shootout 2089 01:32:40,280 --> 01:32:41,840 Speaker 8: or if he did or didn't say it. I think 2090 01:32:42,240 --> 01:32:44,799 Speaker 8: what Evan's point was, and he can speak for himself tomorrow. 2091 01:32:45,520 --> 01:32:47,880 Speaker 8: If you said he may not come back anymore, that's true. 2092 01:32:48,960 --> 01:32:53,040 Speaker 8: But I think his point is he doesn't see anybody 2093 01:32:53,160 --> 01:32:56,200 Speaker 8: being able to completely shut down Drake May, so they'll 2094 01:32:56,200 --> 01:32:58,680 Speaker 8: be able to score enough points. In the case of 2095 01:32:58,920 --> 01:33:01,120 Speaker 8: Denver and Houston, these are the two teams that have 2096 01:33:01,200 --> 01:33:04,840 Speaker 8: particularly rankled his feathers. I think, yeah, he doesn't feel 2097 01:33:04,880 --> 01:33:06,960 Speaker 8: that they have the offenses to keep up with the Patriots. 2098 01:33:07,000 --> 01:33:08,960 Speaker 8: That doesn't necessarily mean you have to win thirty eight 2099 01:33:09,040 --> 01:33:12,280 Speaker 8: thirty five. Yeah, Like in other words, he thinks, if 2100 01:33:12,320 --> 01:33:14,519 Speaker 8: I can get to twenty four against those teams, I'm 2101 01:33:14,560 --> 01:33:17,680 Speaker 8: gonna win because the other team can't get there. I 2102 01:33:17,760 --> 01:33:21,320 Speaker 8: think that's Evans point. It might be semantic argument, which 2103 01:33:21,360 --> 01:33:24,320 Speaker 8: is the basis of oh so many of our arguments 2104 01:33:24,360 --> 01:33:25,479 Speaker 8: here on Patriots Unfiltered. 2105 01:33:25,600 --> 01:33:29,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, back to the phones. Marty is in 2106 01:33:29,520 --> 01:33:37,280 Speaker 3: the Pacific Northwest. Hey, Marty, Marty, Maty maighty. Oh, we 2107 01:33:37,360 --> 01:33:40,880 Speaker 3: didn't talk about Mike Vrabel any anything come out of 2108 01:33:40,960 --> 01:33:42,160 Speaker 3: that of interest? 2109 01:33:42,240 --> 01:33:42,559 Speaker 2: Do you think? 2110 01:33:42,640 --> 01:33:42,680 Speaker 3: No? 2111 01:33:42,800 --> 01:33:46,120 Speaker 8: We should mention though, and he opened up his press conference. 2112 01:33:46,160 --> 01:33:51,080 Speaker 8: It's a tragedy with Kevin Falk lost his second daughter, Yeah, 2113 01:33:51,200 --> 01:33:55,360 Speaker 8: thirty year old daughter. I don't really know any of 2114 01:33:55,400 --> 01:33:57,280 Speaker 8: the details other than she passed away. 2115 01:33:57,400 --> 01:33:58,360 Speaker 2: He was in the hospital. 2116 01:34:00,120 --> 01:34:02,880 Speaker 8: Mike did open that up and talked about, you know, 2117 01:34:03,160 --> 01:34:10,800 Speaker 8: just that's how that's Yeah, that's an unspeakable tragedy. But yeah, 2118 01:34:10,840 --> 01:34:13,320 Speaker 8: I mean I thought a lot of you know, a 2119 01:34:13,360 --> 01:34:16,400 Speaker 8: lot of respect obviously from Vrabel for Buffalo and for 2120 01:34:16,520 --> 01:34:19,040 Speaker 8: Josh Allen in particular. That's where it mostly centatored on, 2121 01:34:21,240 --> 01:34:23,160 Speaker 8: you know, But you know, like the whole thing about 2122 01:34:23,160 --> 01:34:27,519 Speaker 8: how to attack him, I think Mike is right. There's 2123 01:34:27,600 --> 01:34:30,280 Speaker 8: no you can't attack him one way, Like if you 2124 01:34:30,320 --> 01:34:32,120 Speaker 8: want to try to be passive in the past rush 2125 01:34:32,160 --> 01:34:33,479 Speaker 8: and keep him in the pocket, He's just going to 2126 01:34:33,560 --> 01:34:34,880 Speaker 8: stand back there in direct traffic. 2127 01:34:35,280 --> 01:34:36,439 Speaker 1: If you want to go after. 2128 01:34:36,360 --> 01:34:38,760 Speaker 8: Him, then you better get him, right So, you know, 2129 01:34:39,320 --> 01:34:42,360 Speaker 8: I think Taylor Kyle's asked him about Buffalo's propensity to 2130 01:34:42,720 --> 01:34:46,880 Speaker 8: only keep five in and protection, you know, and Mike said, yeah, 2131 01:34:46,920 --> 01:34:48,720 Speaker 8: you can send six if they're only going to block five, 2132 01:34:48,760 --> 01:34:50,880 Speaker 8: but you better have that six guy. Better get him, yep, 2133 01:34:51,240 --> 01:34:55,280 Speaker 8: otherwise you're in trouble. So I think Tom Curran asked 2134 01:34:55,320 --> 01:34:57,280 Speaker 8: him about the long touchdown run that Allen had in 2135 01:34:57,320 --> 01:34:59,920 Speaker 8: the Cincinnati game. Is that why you can't play man? 2136 01:35:00,200 --> 01:35:02,760 Speaker 8: He said, well, if you only do one thing, you know, 2137 01:35:02,840 --> 01:35:04,519 Speaker 8: that's that's not the right way to do it either. 2138 01:35:04,560 --> 01:35:06,400 Speaker 8: And we did look it up, but Mike was still here. 2139 01:35:07,200 --> 01:35:08,600 Speaker 8: That was one of their higher. 2140 01:35:09,840 --> 01:35:10,519 Speaker 1: Man games. 2141 01:35:10,840 --> 01:35:13,479 Speaker 8: That was the first time against Buffalo, and I think 2142 01:35:13,520 --> 01:35:18,799 Speaker 8: that speaks to the lack of explosiveness in the Bill's 2143 01:35:18,920 --> 01:35:21,040 Speaker 8: receiving cores. I think they feel like they can shut 2144 01:35:21,160 --> 01:35:25,439 Speaker 8: down these guys with man coverage, so I think that's 2145 01:35:25,479 --> 01:35:27,040 Speaker 8: the way he goes about it. But yeah, you know, 2146 01:35:27,200 --> 01:35:31,160 Speaker 8: Allen's ability to run in those situations obviously is a concern. 2147 01:35:31,439 --> 01:35:31,599 Speaker 5: Yep. 2148 01:35:33,040 --> 01:35:35,920 Speaker 3: If Sean is in Boston, I hope I'm pronouncing your 2149 01:35:35,960 --> 01:35:37,120 Speaker 3: name correctly as Sean. 2150 01:35:38,360 --> 01:35:41,559 Speaker 14: Yep, you're pronouncing it correct. Hey, guys, I'm a first 2151 01:35:41,600 --> 01:35:43,000 Speaker 14: time caller, a long time listener. 2152 01:35:43,240 --> 01:35:43,479 Speaker 5: Nice. 2153 01:35:43,560 --> 01:35:46,000 Speaker 14: Well, I think you guys might have talked about this earlier, 2154 01:35:46,080 --> 01:35:48,840 Speaker 14: with the idea of like whether we can compete in 2155 01:35:48,880 --> 01:35:51,760 Speaker 14: a shootout. I just didn't catch it. My question was 2156 01:35:51,920 --> 01:35:55,240 Speaker 14: about I know we've talked a lot about we're not 2157 01:35:55,360 --> 01:35:57,960 Speaker 14: sure if this offense can keep up in I guess, 2158 01:35:58,040 --> 01:36:01,360 Speaker 14: like a shootout like game. But Mike question was, is 2159 01:36:01,439 --> 01:36:06,680 Speaker 14: there not concern about seeing this Patriots team win in 2160 01:36:06,760 --> 01:36:09,919 Speaker 14: a comeback fashion? And I'm talking about like down fourteen 2161 01:36:09,920 --> 01:36:13,519 Speaker 14: to seventeen points at half, because I think it's much 2162 01:36:13,680 --> 01:36:16,719 Speaker 14: easier for a defense to let up a lot of points. 2163 01:36:16,760 --> 01:36:18,880 Speaker 14: But if the quarterback is kind of like the engine 2164 01:36:18,920 --> 01:36:21,080 Speaker 14: of the team, you could have Drake maygo off for 2165 01:36:21,200 --> 01:36:23,360 Speaker 14: four touchdowns and keep you in the game in the shootouts, 2166 01:36:23,640 --> 01:36:27,080 Speaker 14: but I think it becomes a lot more difficult when 2167 01:36:27,120 --> 01:36:30,400 Speaker 14: the offense is struggling for the defense to hold up 2168 01:36:30,439 --> 01:36:32,200 Speaker 14: its end of the bargain, because I think that the 2169 01:36:32,400 --> 01:36:35,800 Speaker 14: energy across the team might be a bit lower when 2170 01:36:35,840 --> 01:36:37,800 Speaker 14: the offense is struggling. So I'm just wondering on your guys' 2171 01:36:37,960 --> 01:36:42,240 Speaker 14: opinion on the importance of seeing a major comeback game 2172 01:36:42,280 --> 01:36:44,600 Speaker 14: before we hit the playoffs as opposed to something like 2173 01:36:44,600 --> 01:36:46,240 Speaker 14: a shootout where we know our offense can score a 2174 01:36:46,280 --> 01:36:46,759 Speaker 14: lot of points. 2175 01:36:47,840 --> 01:36:50,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you know, but I hear what you're saying. 2176 01:36:50,760 --> 01:36:52,840 Speaker 3: It's so hard to manufacture those things. 2177 01:36:52,800 --> 01:36:54,960 Speaker 1: Well, and I understand this question totally. 2178 01:36:55,280 --> 01:36:58,519 Speaker 8: I just think that I don't ever want to be 2179 01:36:58,600 --> 01:37:02,280 Speaker 8: down seventeen, right, and forget about manufacturing something. I don't 2180 01:37:02,320 --> 01:37:04,600 Speaker 8: think if you come back from down seventeen in the 2181 01:37:04,640 --> 01:37:07,559 Speaker 8: regular season, I still that doesn't mean it doesn't make 2182 01:37:07,640 --> 01:37:10,960 Speaker 8: me any more confident in the playoffs if I'm down seventeen. 2183 01:37:11,800 --> 01:37:14,439 Speaker 8: Now I understand what his point is, like, the players 2184 01:37:14,479 --> 01:37:16,040 Speaker 8: will know what we've been here before. 2185 01:37:16,520 --> 01:37:17,120 Speaker 2: We can do this. 2186 01:37:17,320 --> 01:37:17,760 Speaker 1: I get it. 2187 01:37:18,400 --> 01:37:20,479 Speaker 8: It's not gonna make it's not gonna make the situation 2188 01:37:20,560 --> 01:37:21,360 Speaker 8: any less dire. 2189 01:37:21,520 --> 01:37:24,439 Speaker 3: And we're impatient, you know, because, like you said it 2190 01:37:24,560 --> 01:37:27,000 Speaker 3: right there, we've been there before. In order to have 2191 01:37:27,080 --> 01:37:31,000 Speaker 3: been there before, you kind of need time to experience 2192 01:37:31,160 --> 01:37:35,280 Speaker 3: all those different scenarios. Really, we're only talking one season 2193 01:37:35,400 --> 01:37:37,640 Speaker 3: so far. Last forget about last season. I mean right, 2194 01:37:37,680 --> 01:37:40,680 Speaker 3: I wipe that from my memory. So there's only so 2195 01:37:40,760 --> 01:37:43,800 Speaker 3: many games in which to experience different scenarios. We haven't 2196 01:37:43,840 --> 01:37:47,240 Speaker 3: seen everything yet, and it's gonna take time before this 2197 01:37:47,520 --> 01:37:49,880 Speaker 3: version of the Patriots sees all those conditions. 2198 01:37:50,000 --> 01:37:52,560 Speaker 8: So I totally get it. They haven't really had to 2199 01:37:52,640 --> 01:37:56,120 Speaker 8: come back. And you know what you're talking about is, 2200 01:37:56,240 --> 01:37:58,840 Speaker 8: you know, multi score of deficits late in the game. 2201 01:38:00,439 --> 01:38:04,000 Speaker 8: That's desperation time. I don't care how many times that. 2202 01:38:04,080 --> 01:38:04,800 Speaker 5: You you do it. 2203 01:38:04,920 --> 01:38:07,679 Speaker 2: When was the first time Brady experienced that in his career? 2204 01:38:07,840 --> 01:38:11,240 Speaker 8: Oh, like his first home was a second home winning Chargers. 2205 01:38:11,680 --> 01:38:14,680 Speaker 8: Yeah right right, yeah, down ten with like three minutes left. 2206 01:38:15,160 --> 01:38:16,160 Speaker 2: It was that San Diego. 2207 01:38:16,320 --> 01:38:18,040 Speaker 8: Yeah, they ended up winning in overtime. 2208 01:38:18,240 --> 01:38:18,799 Speaker 2: I remember. 2209 01:38:20,280 --> 01:38:23,479 Speaker 8: So yeah, I mean I get it, you know, Like, 2210 01:38:24,400 --> 01:38:27,320 Speaker 8: here's the most glaring example, coming back from twenty eight 2211 01:38:27,360 --> 01:38:31,599 Speaker 8: to three in the Super Bowl. I don't know if 2212 01:38:32,120 --> 01:38:34,320 Speaker 8: you felt better about it because, well, the Patriots have 2213 01:38:34,400 --> 01:38:35,040 Speaker 8: done this before. 2214 01:38:35,560 --> 01:38:36,000 Speaker 1: I didn't. 2215 01:38:36,120 --> 01:38:40,080 Speaker 3: I well, they never did that before. Well, the Denver 2216 01:38:40,200 --> 01:38:42,799 Speaker 3: game they were down twenty four to nothing or something. 2217 01:38:42,640 --> 01:38:45,920 Speaker 8: Like that, twenty four to nothing. Yeah, but like I don't, 2218 01:38:46,600 --> 01:38:50,960 Speaker 8: like Tom Brady had established his ability to come from behind, right, 2219 01:38:51,040 --> 01:38:53,240 Speaker 8: And I think there was a belief in Brady. And 2220 01:38:53,320 --> 01:38:56,559 Speaker 8: I think you heard you've heard anecdotes from defensive players 2221 01:38:56,600 --> 01:38:58,800 Speaker 8: in the sidelin No, no, no, we got Brady from 2222 01:38:58,800 --> 01:39:01,160 Speaker 8: the other team to the other right. Mohamed Sanu I 2223 01:39:01,160 --> 01:39:05,519 Speaker 8: think said it. Yeah, but that's not a situation that 2224 01:39:05,600 --> 01:39:07,519 Speaker 8: you want to find yourself in in the playoffs. Like 2225 01:39:08,120 --> 01:39:11,320 Speaker 8: there's nobody that would say, like it's okay because we've 2226 01:39:11,360 --> 01:39:14,960 Speaker 8: been the here before. Right now, everything's got to be perfect. 2227 01:39:15,160 --> 01:39:17,320 Speaker 2: But you know, like if your team's that good, you 2228 01:39:17,400 --> 01:39:19,720 Speaker 2: don't have that situation, So like, which do you. 2229 01:39:19,800 --> 01:39:20,519 Speaker 1: Are the other team? 2230 01:39:20,600 --> 01:39:21,080 Speaker 5: Is that bad? 2231 01:39:21,439 --> 01:39:23,000 Speaker 3: They're not good enough to get that kind of a 2232 01:39:23,080 --> 01:39:26,120 Speaker 3: lead on right, So which that's the Yeah, it's true. 2233 01:39:26,160 --> 01:39:29,000 Speaker 3: We haven't really experienced that yet, so we don't know. 2234 01:39:29,240 --> 01:39:32,080 Speaker 2: But you know, it is what it is. 2235 01:39:33,880 --> 01:39:36,800 Speaker 3: There'll be a first time for everything, hopefully because this 2236 01:39:37,000 --> 01:39:38,680 Speaker 3: is going to last for a while with this head 2237 01:39:38,720 --> 01:39:41,759 Speaker 3: coach in this quarterback Sean's and Vancouver. 2238 01:39:42,479 --> 01:39:43,639 Speaker 2: What's up Sean, Sean? 2239 01:39:44,760 --> 01:39:48,120 Speaker 13: I really hope that song is going to play this week, 2240 01:39:48,520 --> 01:39:51,439 Speaker 13: not amongst the PU crew but general NFL chatter. He's 2241 01:39:51,479 --> 01:39:54,320 Speaker 13: been a real unsugg hero and it's going to help 2242 01:39:54,680 --> 01:39:57,720 Speaker 13: on the defensive line, but also in short yardage and 2243 01:39:57,840 --> 01:40:01,240 Speaker 13: running the ball because his blocking is than anything close 2244 01:40:01,280 --> 01:40:04,559 Speaker 13: to real fullback. So that's someone now the Patriots Kapillion 2245 01:40:05,080 --> 01:40:06,360 Speaker 13: used all this lady on. 2246 01:40:06,400 --> 01:40:10,640 Speaker 8: That Okay, Yeah, I think I think his his his 2247 01:40:10,800 --> 01:40:13,880 Speaker 8: return would be a welcome one to handle James Cook. 2248 01:40:13,920 --> 01:40:16,320 Speaker 8: I'm less concerned about the handful of snaps that he 2249 01:40:16,400 --> 01:40:18,160 Speaker 8: get as a full back. I don't dismiss it. I 2250 01:40:18,240 --> 01:40:19,800 Speaker 8: think you know he did it, does it? You know 2251 01:40:19,840 --> 01:40:21,640 Speaker 8: he does a fairly good job in that regard. But 2252 01:40:22,320 --> 01:40:24,639 Speaker 8: the run defense has been sagging, and I think part 2253 01:40:24,680 --> 01:40:27,720 Speaker 8: of it is everybody talks about Milton Williams, but I 2254 01:40:27,840 --> 01:40:29,800 Speaker 8: think you know Tong has been part of that too. 2255 01:40:30,040 --> 01:40:32,360 Speaker 8: So yeah, you know, to have those guys back as 2256 01:40:32,400 --> 01:40:35,559 Speaker 8: many of those guys back, Yeah, yep, the more the merrier. 2257 01:40:36,160 --> 01:40:40,120 Speaker 3: Let's see Bruno Wright saying subject line, how to enhance 2258 01:40:40,240 --> 01:40:43,200 Speaker 3: analytics with how my defense is doing. 2259 01:40:43,520 --> 01:40:44,280 Speaker 2: It's pretty easy. 2260 01:40:44,720 --> 01:40:48,080 Speaker 3: Besides scoreclocking down a distance, you factor an EPA and 2261 01:40:48,160 --> 01:40:51,120 Speaker 3: success rate for both teams into the equation. That should 2262 01:40:51,160 --> 01:40:53,840 Speaker 3: be pretty straightforward. You only need to figure out the 2263 01:40:54,240 --> 01:40:58,000 Speaker 3: coefficients for each metric. A more advanced version could also 2264 01:40:58,120 --> 01:41:01,519 Speaker 3: take into account season advanced for the teams as well 2265 01:41:01,560 --> 01:41:04,599 Speaker 3: as players individually, so you can factor in key injuries 2266 01:41:04,600 --> 01:41:04,960 Speaker 3: as well. 2267 01:41:05,240 --> 01:41:07,439 Speaker 2: But at this point you might be needing. 2268 01:41:07,280 --> 01:41:10,920 Speaker 3: The Guys Coding Chat GPT to join the NFL analytics team. 2269 01:41:11,000 --> 01:41:13,760 Speaker 3: But in any case, it's only just odds, and the 2270 01:41:13,840 --> 01:41:16,080 Speaker 3: fun part of sports is that on any given Sunday 2271 01:41:16,120 --> 01:41:16,800 Speaker 3: you can beat them. 2272 01:41:17,080 --> 01:41:20,760 Speaker 8: I want to do less odds, like I want to 2273 01:41:20,960 --> 01:41:22,639 Speaker 8: like I think like I said, I think that that's 2274 01:41:22,680 --> 01:41:25,600 Speaker 8: been a welcome change, that teams are more willing to 2275 01:41:25,680 --> 01:41:27,639 Speaker 8: take some of that into consideration. But I don't want 2276 01:41:27,680 --> 01:41:30,479 Speaker 8: to do it based on strictly based on numbers. I 2277 01:41:30,520 --> 01:41:34,880 Speaker 8: don't want to add more numbers, especially EPA like expected 2278 01:41:35,080 --> 01:41:39,400 Speaker 8: stuff that's not real. I don't want to necessarily add 2279 01:41:39,600 --> 01:41:44,720 Speaker 8: more numbers into my thought process. Yep, you understand what 2280 01:41:44,760 --> 01:41:47,599 Speaker 8: I'm saying. Yeah, but I do think like I will. 2281 01:41:48,520 --> 01:41:50,560 Speaker 8: I know people probably don't believe me, but I do 2282 01:41:50,960 --> 01:41:52,760 Speaker 8: like the fact that teams go for it on fullth 2283 01:41:52,800 --> 01:41:55,760 Speaker 8: down far more, far more frequently, and I think that's 2284 01:41:55,800 --> 01:41:57,080 Speaker 8: been a good development for the league. 2285 01:41:57,520 --> 01:42:00,639 Speaker 3: Matt from Saskatchewan says, I meant to send this into 2286 01:42:00,720 --> 01:42:03,439 Speaker 3: Catch twenty two, and as I assume Barth probably knows 2287 01:42:03,560 --> 01:42:05,840 Speaker 3: this information off the top of his head, I was 2288 01:42:05,920 --> 01:42:08,679 Speaker 3: wondering how everyone feels about Drake May in the clutch, 2289 01:42:09,320 --> 01:42:12,479 Speaker 3: as we haven't really seen it outside the Buffalo game 2290 01:42:12,560 --> 01:42:15,360 Speaker 3: in Week four. I vaguely remember during the draft cycle 2291 01:42:15,439 --> 01:42:17,640 Speaker 3: that he did not have a great record and come 2292 01:42:17,720 --> 01:42:20,960 Speaker 3: from behind games in college, and I was wondering if 2293 01:42:21,000 --> 01:42:22,920 Speaker 3: you have any concerns about his ability to do so 2294 01:42:23,080 --> 01:42:25,920 Speaker 3: as we approach the playoffs will inevitably have to come 2295 01:42:26,000 --> 01:42:29,680 Speaker 3: from behind to win against better teams. So in the 2296 01:42:29,800 --> 01:42:32,479 Speaker 3: clutch a little bit different than come from behind, you know, 2297 01:42:32,920 --> 01:42:34,880 Speaker 3: seventeen points, just got. 2298 01:42:34,880 --> 01:42:35,200 Speaker 5: To have it. 2299 01:42:35,560 --> 01:42:37,519 Speaker 8: Yeah, and he hasn't really had any of those. Yeah, 2300 01:42:37,600 --> 01:42:40,559 Speaker 8: even the one that we're talking about was a tie game. Yep, 2301 01:42:40,720 --> 01:42:44,120 Speaker 8: so he didn't have to do it right. No, I 2302 01:42:44,160 --> 01:42:47,400 Speaker 8: don't have concerns only because I would be concerned if 2303 01:42:47,439 --> 01:42:51,280 Speaker 8: I had seen him fail in those situations, you know, 2304 01:42:51,400 --> 01:42:54,719 Speaker 8: like last year, I'm with you, I completely throw away 2305 01:42:54,800 --> 01:42:57,720 Speaker 8: last year. Yeah, this year, with this team and this 2306 01:42:58,200 --> 01:43:01,479 Speaker 8: personnel around him, they haven't. They haven't failed in those situations. 2307 01:43:01,520 --> 01:43:03,880 Speaker 8: But and you know the other thing about that is, 2308 01:43:04,040 --> 01:43:06,439 Speaker 8: I guess that's not really true. They were down, they 2309 01:43:06,439 --> 01:43:09,200 Speaker 8: were down a touchdown against Pittsburgh and he fumbled, So I, yes, 2310 01:43:09,320 --> 01:43:12,160 Speaker 8: that's but that's one and it's. 2311 01:43:12,080 --> 01:43:14,439 Speaker 3: Not one hundred percent fair to just say, how is 2312 01:43:14,680 --> 01:43:16,519 Speaker 3: Drake May in the clutch? How is your team in 2313 01:43:16,560 --> 01:43:19,720 Speaker 3: the clutch? Because even during the Brady years, when you know, 2314 01:43:19,840 --> 01:43:22,719 Speaker 3: you had those times where you had to convert third 2315 01:43:22,800 --> 01:43:25,439 Speaker 3: down after third down and critical games, you know, in 2316 01:43:25,520 --> 01:43:29,000 Speaker 3: the fourth quarter, it was great plays by Gronk, great 2317 01:43:29,040 --> 01:43:32,439 Speaker 3: plays by Edelman, a stupid play by the other team, 2318 01:43:32,600 --> 01:43:33,519 Speaker 3: you know, all those things. 2319 01:43:33,800 --> 01:43:36,599 Speaker 2: You know, so you got to look at your team too. 2320 01:43:36,760 --> 01:43:39,759 Speaker 3: How is the pet how other guys been in the clutch? 2321 01:43:40,240 --> 01:43:44,519 Speaker 3: Do they have mental you know, brain farts and you know, 2322 01:43:45,040 --> 01:43:46,280 Speaker 3: have off size. 2323 01:43:46,560 --> 01:43:46,720 Speaker 8: You know. 2324 01:43:46,920 --> 01:43:49,400 Speaker 1: So it's there's so much that it's about the quarterback though. 2325 01:43:49,439 --> 01:43:51,960 Speaker 1: I mean, let's face it, well it is, you know 2326 01:43:52,120 --> 01:43:53,760 Speaker 1: he he can't screw up either. 2327 01:43:53,880 --> 01:43:57,640 Speaker 3: But is it a team like that has a propensity 2328 01:43:57,720 --> 01:44:01,360 Speaker 3: to do a stupid play like they did the last 2329 01:44:01,400 --> 01:44:05,040 Speaker 3: four years? You know, I don't think so. I think 2330 01:44:05,120 --> 01:44:10,360 Speaker 3: fundamentally they're more sound. Santo is by the way, he's 2331 01:44:10,360 --> 01:44:12,599 Speaker 3: a PhD. So you got to listen to what he's saying. 2332 01:44:12,760 --> 01:44:15,479 Speaker 3: Good for you, I says. In terms of Evan being 2333 01:44:15,520 --> 01:44:18,760 Speaker 3: an advanced scout, he says, I agree, Evan could fit 2334 01:44:18,880 --> 01:44:21,240 Speaker 3: in as an advanced scout. I've been so impressed with 2335 01:44:21,280 --> 01:44:24,839 Speaker 3: his insights and more so with his rationale of his opinions. 2336 01:44:24,960 --> 01:44:28,120 Speaker 3: Clearly he does his homework. I even enjoyed his analysis 2337 01:44:28,160 --> 01:44:30,680 Speaker 3: of the upcoming drafts looking at all the talent coming out, 2338 01:44:30,960 --> 01:44:34,120 Speaker 3: can't believe the scouts the Patriots have are that much superior. 2339 01:44:35,479 --> 01:44:36,320 Speaker 2: Well, there you go. 2340 01:44:37,280 --> 01:44:39,120 Speaker 1: I and this is not a joke. 2341 01:44:39,520 --> 01:44:42,120 Speaker 8: I've said this to him since he started working with us, 2342 01:44:42,439 --> 01:44:44,600 Speaker 8: and you know, we sort of got to know what 2343 01:44:44,720 --> 01:44:47,240 Speaker 8: he's all about. And I've asked them many times if 2344 01:44:47,240 --> 01:44:49,680 Speaker 8: he's ever given any any thought to try and to 2345 01:44:49,760 --> 01:44:52,000 Speaker 8: get into the business, and he says, no, it's a 2346 01:44:52,080 --> 01:44:53,559 Speaker 8: tough life, not really tough life. 2347 01:44:53,600 --> 01:44:54,280 Speaker 1: It's a tough life. 2348 01:44:54,840 --> 01:44:56,720 Speaker 3: On a side note, what is the logic for the 2349 01:44:56,840 --> 01:44:59,599 Speaker 3: title of Catch twenty two? Is it related to the book? 2350 01:44:59,640 --> 01:45:01,360 Speaker 3: If so, well, it is kind of a nod to 2351 01:45:01,439 --> 01:45:06,360 Speaker 3: the book and you know the twenty All twenty two film. Yea, 2352 01:45:06,560 --> 01:45:08,479 Speaker 3: the All twenty two film is so much. 2353 01:45:08,320 --> 01:45:11,120 Speaker 8: About what he and Barth do they hatch, what all 2354 01:45:11,240 --> 01:45:13,720 Speaker 8: twenty two are doing, as well as like it's a 2355 01:45:13,760 --> 01:45:16,040 Speaker 8: pun on the play on words with twenty two. 2356 01:45:16,200 --> 01:45:18,360 Speaker 3: So you know, they use the All twenty two film 2357 01:45:18,439 --> 01:45:20,600 Speaker 3: as a part of their research. And so it's a 2358 01:45:21,200 --> 01:45:23,920 Speaker 3: is that you Yeah, is that Catch twenty two? 2359 01:45:24,040 --> 01:45:24,200 Speaker 1: Yeah? 2360 01:45:24,320 --> 01:45:25,280 Speaker 2: I came up with that, of course. 2361 01:45:25,479 --> 01:45:27,560 Speaker 8: I mean, in all seriousness, Yeah, it's one of the 2362 01:45:27,640 --> 01:45:29,920 Speaker 8: best titles that I've heard for anything like that. 2363 01:45:30,160 --> 01:45:32,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, But obviously it's an ode. It's an o to 2364 01:45:33,439 --> 01:45:37,200 Speaker 3: the movie and the book. It's perfect yeap Joseph Heller's book. 2365 01:45:37,200 --> 01:45:41,120 Speaker 3: I believe Catch twenty two predictions. If I planned against 2366 01:45:41,240 --> 01:45:44,760 Speaker 3: the Patriots' Sunday, I would try to win by keeping 2367 01:45:44,840 --> 01:45:47,640 Speaker 3: May on the sideline, so the running game would need 2368 01:45:47,680 --> 01:45:50,519 Speaker 3: to be important. Still, I would not be surprised that 2369 01:45:50,600 --> 01:45:52,840 Speaker 3: the Patriots would be ready for that game plan. So 2370 01:45:53,240 --> 01:45:55,840 Speaker 3: the Patriots win because we have a better coaching staff 2371 01:45:56,080 --> 01:45:57,800 Speaker 3: and dare I say, the better quarterback. 2372 01:46:00,680 --> 01:46:01,439 Speaker 2: I think it's a toss. 2373 01:46:01,600 --> 01:46:03,320 Speaker 8: I think both of those things remained to be seen. 2374 01:46:03,840 --> 01:46:08,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's a toss up. So it's gonna 2375 01:46:08,160 --> 01:46:09,519 Speaker 3: come down to just a few plays. 2376 01:46:10,640 --> 01:46:11,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean. 2377 01:46:12,880 --> 01:46:18,320 Speaker 8: The first game people, I think it was so long ago. 2378 01:46:18,360 --> 01:46:20,800 Speaker 8: I don't think people remember just how badly Buffalo played 2379 01:46:20,840 --> 01:46:23,759 Speaker 8: in that game. Like they had three turnovers and eleven 2380 01:46:23,800 --> 01:46:27,679 Speaker 8: penalties yep, and still had the ball with a chance 2381 01:46:27,760 --> 01:46:32,839 Speaker 8: to go ahead, and had a very close pass breakup 2382 01:46:33,439 --> 01:46:38,000 Speaker 8: that could have gone either way. That's interference or it's 2383 01:46:38,040 --> 01:46:40,439 Speaker 8: a pass breakup, right, and the Bills could have taken 2384 01:46:40,479 --> 01:46:44,920 Speaker 8: the lead, and they couldn't have played much worse. So 2385 01:46:45,280 --> 01:46:47,080 Speaker 8: I just would caution on the whole you have the 2386 01:46:47,160 --> 01:46:48,479 Speaker 8: edge here, you have the edge here, you have the 2387 01:46:48,600 --> 01:46:48,920 Speaker 8: edge here. 2388 01:46:49,120 --> 01:46:50,760 Speaker 1: Stuff like this is. 2389 01:46:52,280 --> 01:46:54,240 Speaker 8: I think Buffalo is pretty good. They're not having a 2390 01:46:54,320 --> 01:46:56,840 Speaker 8: great year, They're not healthy. I think you're catching them 2391 01:46:56,840 --> 01:46:59,839 Speaker 8: at a great spot. I think they've sort of invested 2392 01:46:59,880 --> 01:47:01,600 Speaker 8: a lot of energy the last couple of weeks. The 2393 01:47:01,640 --> 01:47:04,280 Speaker 8: Patriots have a very good chance to win this game. 2394 01:47:04,280 --> 01:47:06,920 Speaker 8: That's why I'm picking them. I think all the intangibles 2395 01:47:06,920 --> 01:47:07,880 Speaker 8: are in the Patriots side. 2396 01:47:07,880 --> 01:47:11,160 Speaker 3: Do you think like picking up Brandon Cooks and who's 2397 01:47:11,160 --> 01:47:14,240 Speaker 3: the other guy they picked up off the street? 2398 01:47:14,320 --> 01:47:17,760 Speaker 2: I forget another veteran. Is it any sign that they 2399 01:47:17,920 --> 01:47:19,960 Speaker 2: believe we got to do this now? 2400 01:47:20,240 --> 01:47:22,640 Speaker 8: They don't have anybody, That's what It's a sign, and 2401 01:47:23,000 --> 01:47:26,240 Speaker 8: all their guys are hurt. Well, Curtis Samuel's on I are. 2402 01:47:26,400 --> 01:47:28,120 Speaker 8: Josh Palmer has been out the last couple of weeks. 2403 01:47:28,160 --> 01:47:30,720 Speaker 8: Dalton Kinkaid missed a month. Like they needed guys to 2404 01:47:30,800 --> 01:47:31,680 Speaker 8: come in and catch the ball. 2405 01:47:32,160 --> 01:47:36,639 Speaker 2: He was available, Yeah, Dylan and Nashville. 2406 01:47:36,680 --> 01:47:38,800 Speaker 3: I just want to point out that belichick six Super 2407 01:47:38,840 --> 01:47:41,759 Speaker 3: bowls in New England came with two offensive coordinators, Charlie 2408 01:47:41,800 --> 01:47:48,519 Speaker 3: Weiss and Josh Mcdaniels's McDaniels our most important offseason acquisition. Well, 2409 01:47:48,520 --> 01:47:53,600 Speaker 3: I would say it's vyable, but he's number two maybe acquisitions. 2410 01:47:53,840 --> 01:47:57,519 Speaker 8: I mean, I don't know. They They signed a lot 2411 01:47:57,560 --> 01:47:59,720 Speaker 8: of players that have been very, very important to. 2412 01:47:59,760 --> 01:48:02,839 Speaker 2: The but any more important than Daniels. 2413 01:48:03,000 --> 01:48:04,759 Speaker 8: Yeah, players are more important than coaches. 2414 01:48:04,880 --> 01:48:07,519 Speaker 2: Okay, all right, I. 2415 01:48:07,560 --> 01:48:10,800 Speaker 8: Mean, I'm not dismissing the coaching in this, but I'm 2416 01:48:10,800 --> 01:48:11,519 Speaker 8: not doing this again. 2417 01:48:11,960 --> 01:48:12,120 Speaker 3: I was. 2418 01:48:12,520 --> 01:48:15,720 Speaker 8: I was on the wrong side of history before. I 2419 01:48:15,760 --> 01:48:19,479 Speaker 8: ain't doing it again. I'm serious. I was on the 2420 01:48:19,520 --> 01:48:23,760 Speaker 8: bill over Brady until like I was wrong. Yeah, like 2421 01:48:24,040 --> 01:48:24,920 Speaker 8: you know, fool me once. 2422 01:48:27,080 --> 01:48:30,519 Speaker 3: Dylan in South Florida says, the anti Patriot disdain online 2423 01:48:30,640 --> 01:48:35,280 Speaker 3: is back.

Do you predict we see lots from 2443 01:49:32,400 --> 01:49:35,240 Speaker 3: Hunter Henry more of a digs and booty game. I 2444 01:49:35,360 --> 01:49:38,280 Speaker 3: personally don't know what to expect, but I'm interested to 2445 01:49:38,320 --> 01:49:40,879 Speaker 3: see how this approach is different from our first matchup 2446 01:49:41,120 --> 01:49:45,840 Speaker 3: with Buffalo. Who has other than May who has to 2447 01:49:46,040 --> 01:49:47,920 Speaker 3: stand out for the Patris to win this game? 2448 01:49:48,560 --> 01:49:51,719 Speaker 8: I would say the front seven. They can't allow James 2449 01:49:51,800 --> 01:49:58,599 Speaker 8: Cook to pile up the yards. Defensive, yeah, yeah, defense, yeah, oh, 2450 01:49:58,960 --> 01:49:59,960 Speaker 8: just offense we're talking about? 2451 01:50:00,040 --> 01:50:02,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, he was talking about I'm talking about offense. Who 2452 01:50:02,360 --> 01:50:03,600 Speaker 2: has to you know? 2453 01:50:03,880 --> 01:50:06,120 Speaker 3: Is it a tight end game? Is it a running game? 2454 01:50:06,439 --> 01:50:09,080 Speaker 3: Is it you know, downfield opening it up for the 2455 01:50:09,240 --> 01:50:09,800 Speaker 3: running game. 2456 01:50:09,840 --> 01:50:12,200 Speaker 8: I think it's a good thing. You know, it's a 2457 01:50:12,240 --> 01:50:15,960 Speaker 8: positive sign that Josh McDaniels has set this up, and 2458 01:50:17,120 --> 01:50:18,800 Speaker 8: you just never know from week to week who that 2459 01:50:18,880 --> 01:50:21,639 Speaker 8: guy is going to be. You know, the first Buffalo game, 2460 01:50:21,680 --> 01:50:24,479 Speaker 8: it was Digs. But how many times have we seen 2461 01:50:24,520 --> 01:50:27,759 Speaker 8: to be a different guy? Five it was MATC Collins, 2462 01:50:27,800 --> 01:50:30,040 Speaker 8: a week, it was Kay Shambouti a week, it was 2463 01:50:30,200 --> 01:50:32,960 Speaker 8: Hunter Henry a week. You know, like it could be 2464 01:50:33,040 --> 01:50:36,040 Speaker 8: anybody to Mario Douglas. I just don't know, Like I 2465 01:50:36,080 --> 01:50:39,599 Speaker 8: wouldn't know who to pick to predict that it's going 2466 01:50:39,640 --> 01:50:42,960 Speaker 8: to be this guy this week, right, but somebody, somebody 2467 01:50:43,000 --> 01:50:45,000 Speaker 8: would have to have, you know, a good game and 2468 01:50:45,439 --> 01:50:46,400 Speaker 8: you know someone. 2469 01:50:46,400 --> 01:50:47,719 Speaker 1: I'd have to be productive. 2470 01:50:47,800 --> 01:50:50,760 Speaker 3: I'd love to see as we get closer to the playoffs, 2471 01:50:51,240 --> 01:50:55,760 Speaker 3: week to week, Diggs having high production games, you know, 2472 01:50:56,000 --> 01:50:58,200 Speaker 3: establishing that guy similar. 2473 01:50:57,880 --> 01:50:59,879 Speaker 2: To like how other teams number one. 2474 01:51:01,640 --> 01:51:04,519 Speaker 3: Does it every week, Like where Diggs is getting at 2475 01:51:04,640 --> 01:51:07,559 Speaker 3: least you know, seventy eighty yards minimum every game. 2476 01:51:07,640 --> 01:51:09,879 Speaker 8: Yeah, I just don't think that he's that guy anymore 2477 01:51:10,280 --> 01:51:13,040 Speaker 8: that can do. I mean, and it's not really anything 2478 01:51:13,080 --> 01:51:14,920 Speaker 8: to do with his ACL. Like he wasn't that guy 2479 01:51:14,960 --> 01:51:17,000 Speaker 8: in Houston last year before the ACL he was on 2480 01:51:17,120 --> 01:51:19,240 Speaker 8: pace for like a thousand yard season, Like that's what 2481 01:51:19,320 --> 01:51:22,519 Speaker 8: he's gonna do. He's he's their number one but I 2482 01:51:22,560 --> 01:51:25,000 Speaker 8: don't think he's like a fifteen hundred yard guy, fourteen 2483 01:51:25,080 --> 01:51:26,759 Speaker 8: hundred yard guy like he was in the past. 2484 01:51:26,960 --> 01:51:27,160 Speaker 14: Yeah. 2485 01:51:27,280 --> 01:51:29,560 Speaker 8: The thing that I like about it, Fred is that 2486 01:51:29,920 --> 01:51:32,559 Speaker 8: maybe he isn't doing the six or seven for one 2487 01:51:32,600 --> 01:51:36,120 Speaker 8: hundred every week, but it seems pretty much every week 2488 01:51:37,360 --> 01:51:40,360 Speaker 8: when he has a low production game, it's one or 2489 01:51:40,400 --> 01:51:41,959 Speaker 8: two that come on third. 2490 01:51:41,760 --> 01:51:42,360 Speaker 1: And fourth down. 2491 01:51:42,520 --> 01:51:43,920 Speaker 2: Yes, he's the third down guy. 2492 01:51:43,880 --> 01:51:44,559 Speaker 1: The fourth down. 2493 01:51:45,280 --> 01:51:47,320 Speaker 8: Really, he's been the guy almost every time. 2494 01:51:47,520 --> 01:51:49,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, he's he's definitely. 2495 01:51:49,680 --> 01:51:51,360 Speaker 8: He might not have a big week, he might get 2496 01:51:51,400 --> 01:51:53,960 Speaker 8: three for thirty two yards, but two of those are 2497 01:51:54,040 --> 01:51:56,960 Speaker 8: on fourth down that are instrumental when you're winning the game. 2498 01:51:58,360 --> 01:52:00,560 Speaker 2: Let's see who's thish. 2499 01:52:00,920 --> 01:52:04,560 Speaker 3: No, he doesn't say, but his headline subject line is 2500 01:52:04,640 --> 01:52:07,799 Speaker 3: don't fear the Bills, Ravens and Texans and reasons why. 2501 01:52:09,560 --> 01:52:10,160 Speaker 2: I hear all this? 2502 01:52:10,320 --> 01:52:13,080 Speaker 8: You know the previous email that said we're back. Yeah, 2503 01:52:13,760 --> 01:52:15,760 Speaker 8: that to me is the proof that we're back. We 2504 01:52:15,920 --> 01:52:18,160 Speaker 8: have now completely dismissed everybody else. 2505 01:52:18,479 --> 01:52:21,360 Speaker 3: I hear all the fear back, So this person says, 2506 01:52:21,560 --> 01:52:24,400 Speaker 3: I hear all the fear about facing the Texans in 2507 01:52:24,479 --> 01:52:27,799 Speaker 3: the playoffs. Let's not forget how absolutely dialed in. Digs 2508 01:52:27,960 --> 01:52:30,720 Speaker 3: was the first time against the Bills. I'm confident he 2509 01:52:30,760 --> 01:52:33,120 Speaker 3: will be at least as dialed in against the Texans, 2510 01:52:33,360 --> 01:52:36,360 Speaker 3: who decided to not invest in him after a season 2511 01:52:36,479 --> 01:52:39,760 Speaker 3: ending injury for that team. Motivation. Hell yeah, I'm not 2512 01:52:39,840 --> 01:52:42,200 Speaker 3: fearing the Bills and Ravens games. I think our teams 2513 01:52:42,240 --> 01:52:45,080 Speaker 3: are players, and our coaches will show up. They might 2514 01:52:45,160 --> 01:52:48,400 Speaker 3: not get a dub, but they will show up, compete, 2515 01:52:48,800 --> 01:52:51,080 Speaker 3: and they will learn about themselves and work on any 2516 01:52:51,200 --> 01:52:52,679 Speaker 3: remaining holes in their operation. 2517 01:52:53,200 --> 01:52:55,320 Speaker 8: Yeah, the Ravens aren't in this conversation. They're not a 2518 01:52:55,360 --> 01:52:56,080 Speaker 8: good team this year. 2519 01:52:56,280 --> 01:52:57,160 Speaker 1: I mean it is what it is. 2520 01:52:57,360 --> 01:53:01,920 Speaker 8: They're six and seven, right, Yeah, No the other ones, Yeah, 2521 01:53:02,439 --> 01:53:05,000 Speaker 8: I don't dismiss No, I don't dismiss nine and fourteen. 2522 01:53:05,080 --> 01:53:07,280 Speaker 2: They go in the wrong direction, the Ravens. Right. 2523 01:53:07,800 --> 01:53:13,720 Speaker 3: Jared in La has a problem with show attendance. My 2524 01:53:13,840 --> 01:53:15,920 Speaker 3: only major great with the show is that the cast 2525 01:53:16,080 --> 01:53:18,880 Speaker 3: is so infrequent. Even Paul's starting to not appear on 2526 01:53:19,000 --> 01:53:21,560 Speaker 3: show days. The day before Thanksgiving was poor to me. 2527 01:53:22,720 --> 01:53:24,759 Speaker 8: So I'll just let you know. The day before Christmas 2528 01:53:24,800 --> 01:53:25,599 Speaker 8: Eve will be another one. 2529 01:53:25,640 --> 01:53:29,720 Speaker 2: You're gonna do. I have my show holiday. 2530 01:53:29,400 --> 01:53:32,320 Speaker 8: Filling holiday filling work. You know, I have two hundred 2531 01:53:32,320 --> 01:53:34,439 Speaker 8: and eighty one thousand miles on my car. I need 2532 01:53:34,640 --> 01:53:37,400 Speaker 8: something we should do. Oh that starts at two, right, Yeah, 2533 01:53:37,439 --> 01:53:37,760 Speaker 8: it's two. 2534 01:53:37,760 --> 01:53:41,599 Speaker 2: Okay. I was going to say we could do a crossover. Yeah. 2535 01:53:42,439 --> 01:53:45,479 Speaker 3: But the most bothersome miss almost every week is Evan 2536 01:53:45,600 --> 01:53:48,840 Speaker 3: not being at picks. I'm sorry, you cannot convince me 2537 01:53:49,240 --> 01:53:51,439 Speaker 3: that you need to be gone for that to catch 2538 01:53:51,560 --> 01:53:54,439 Speaker 3: quotes from Vrabel and even I have acted that even 2539 01:53:54,520 --> 01:53:57,400 Speaker 3: I have access to. Even Alex makes the picks, and 2540 01:53:57,479 --> 01:54:01,280 Speaker 3: it's annoying that she's never there to accept them. 2541 01:54:01,920 --> 01:54:04,200 Speaker 2: I don't know what that means. I truly think you 2542 01:54:04,320 --> 01:54:04,760 Speaker 2: all need. 2543 01:54:04,720 --> 01:54:07,360 Speaker 3: To do better and should treat this more seriously rather 2544 01:54:07,479 --> 01:54:10,639 Speaker 3: than taken for granted approach. Most of you have now 2545 01:54:11,160 --> 01:54:14,040 Speaker 3: love the show. I skip Christian in LA's time on 2546 01:54:14,120 --> 01:54:16,280 Speaker 3: the show every time. If I ever run into him, 2547 01:54:16,640 --> 01:54:18,040 Speaker 3: I will think about tripping him. 2548 01:54:18,960 --> 01:54:20,880 Speaker 2: Okay, j kinch. 2549 01:54:20,920 --> 01:54:23,320 Speaker 8: I would assume that that's a little tongue in cheek, 2550 01:54:23,400 --> 01:54:25,760 Speaker 8: but if it's not, if it's serious, I would just 2551 01:54:25,800 --> 01:54:29,640 Speaker 8: say there are other things that go on, like I 2552 01:54:29,720 --> 01:54:31,800 Speaker 8: almost never miss a show. Like when I miss a show, 2553 01:54:31,840 --> 01:54:35,000 Speaker 8: it's because I get an opportunity to fill in, as 2554 01:54:35,080 --> 01:54:36,840 Speaker 8: Fred likes to make fun of me for the holiday 2555 01:54:36,880 --> 01:54:39,120 Speaker 8: fill in guy. Otherwise, I'm here every show for the 2556 01:54:39,200 --> 01:54:43,880 Speaker 8: full show, but for Mike and Hevin, the locker. 2557 01:54:43,680 --> 01:54:44,280 Speaker 1: Room is open. 2558 01:54:45,160 --> 01:54:48,120 Speaker 8: There are things that they need to do, like that's 2559 01:54:48,160 --> 01:54:50,400 Speaker 8: part of what we do here, Like it's not just 2560 01:54:50,520 --> 01:54:53,520 Speaker 8: this show. I love the show. Fred loves the show. 2561 01:54:53,560 --> 01:54:56,520 Speaker 8: That's why we're here more often than not. But I 2562 01:54:56,600 --> 01:54:59,040 Speaker 8: don't necessarily make fun of the others that have to 2563 01:54:59,120 --> 01:55:00,800 Speaker 8: go to the locker room as an example. 2564 01:55:00,880 --> 01:55:05,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, Nate and Connecticut rights in Buffalo doesn't scare me 2565 01:55:05,920 --> 01:55:06,360 Speaker 3: too much. 2566 01:55:07,000 --> 01:55:07,840 Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong. 2567 01:55:07,920 --> 01:55:09,680 Speaker 3: I think there's a fifty to fifty chance that who 2568 01:55:09,680 --> 01:55:11,280 Speaker 3: will win the game on Sunday, But I think the 2569 01:55:11,360 --> 01:55:13,400 Speaker 3: Patriots have the ability to beat any team in the 2570 01:55:13,520 --> 01:55:14,400 Speaker 3: NFL this season. 2571 01:55:14,840 --> 01:55:17,600 Speaker 2: I'm just hoping for a very competitive and entertaining game. 2572 01:55:18,040 --> 01:55:20,760 Speaker 3: The Patriots have surpassed my expectations this season, and no 2573 01:55:20,880 --> 01:55:23,080 Speaker 3: matter how the rest of the season goes, I'll be 2574 01:55:23,160 --> 01:55:23,760 Speaker 3: pretty happy. 2575 01:55:24,120 --> 01:55:25,680 Speaker 2: But of course I'm rooting for them to win the 2576 01:55:25,760 --> 01:55:28,080 Speaker 2: Super Bowl. I love the show. Coming up on twenty 2577 01:55:28,200 --> 01:55:29,400 Speaker 2: years of listening, well. 2578 01:55:29,640 --> 01:55:32,960 Speaker 8: I would agree with that the tenor of that email, like, Yeah, 2579 01:55:33,000 --> 01:55:34,640 Speaker 8: I don't think you should be afraid of any of 2580 01:55:34,720 --> 01:55:38,000 Speaker 8: these teams, So if you want to use that word scared, 2581 01:55:38,000 --> 01:55:40,760 Speaker 8: I'm not. Yeah, I would agree, I just but you 2582 01:55:40,880 --> 01:55:43,440 Speaker 8: also said I think it's like a fifty to fifty game. 2583 01:55:43,680 --> 01:55:46,240 Speaker 8: I would agree with that too. I could see Buffalo winning. 2584 01:55:46,280 --> 01:55:48,959 Speaker 8: I could see the Patriots winning. I think the Patriots 2585 01:55:49,000 --> 01:55:50,560 Speaker 8: have some edges in this game that are going to 2586 01:55:50,640 --> 01:55:51,240 Speaker 8: be the difference. 2587 01:55:52,680 --> 01:55:56,640 Speaker 3: Tay from Nebraska rights in, We've got a big game, 2588 01:55:56,720 --> 01:55:58,960 Speaker 3: not only this weekend but also next.
