00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 1: Patriot's Unfiltered. A lot of body judging on Matt Jones yesterday.

4
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:25,319
Speaker 1: Oh it's interesting that after I got destroyed all of

5
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: last year for claiming that he probably could use a

6
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:32,360
Speaker 1: little nutritional help, he looks really good. He's not, He's gone.

7
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: Who said it, Kendrick Bourne? Can't you imagine that? You're like, Okay,

8
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:43,480
Speaker 1: watch me work out. Joe Judge offensive genius, the hot

9
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:46,879
Speaker 1: new name in offensive football. But what if Brian Hoyer

10
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:51,560
Speaker 1: called the plays based on what? Because he's Brian Hoyer,

11
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 1: he has those funky little hats. I wish everyone could

12
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:56,639
Speaker 1: have seen Mike and his chair apprehensible because I thought

13
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 1: it might get made fun of carrying it out there,

14
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: but he did every cheese. No, Chunky's it's a movie theater,

15
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 1: but it's kind of like overWe I hear Chunky, and

16
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,559
Speaker 1: I like, I start seeing red from seventh grade? Who's Chunky?

17
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: You're Chunky? Finished? This is Patriot's Unfiltered, fueled by Duncan

18
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: all Right, Welcome to Patriots Unfiltered. It is Thursday here

19
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 1: at Gillette Stadium, and I think everybody has Memorial Day

20
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 1: on their mind. The long weekend, right finally, yeah, some

21
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: kids sports free, just a free weekend for the first

22
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 1: time in about two months. No kids, I got nothing really,

23
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: no like tournaments and tournaments. Yeah, I don't have tournaments

24
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,680
Speaker 1: this weekend either. I used to be Memorial Day was

25
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,400
Speaker 1: big for the soccer to yes, huge, huge my town, Holliston.

26
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: I would always meet people Memoire. I used to go

27
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: to the Memorial Day tournament Halston because they would just

28
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: do everybody would descend upon not anymore. Well, my kids

29
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: don't play soccer, nor do mine. Oh so perhaps it's

30
00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: still going on. But yeah, no, it's gonna enjoy soccer

31
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 1: a little pool time. You got your pool gone. The pools,

32
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 1: open pools, open, open pools, open water. Good water's cold

33
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: cold because it's still getting cold at night. That's okay. Yeah,

34
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: get some steaks, grill them. Yeah. I felt like a

35
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: Stanza when I had a vacuum in the pool last week.

36
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 1: It was cold, little shrinkage going on. You weren't even

37
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: in the pool, You're just standing next to it. So yeah, yeah,

38
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 1: and then uh saw Maddie pe walking out us down

39
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: here earlier, so I know they're they're still continuing OTAs today,

40
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 1: so we'll get a look at them on Tuesday. So

41
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 1: I guess we should say too that the show will

42
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:40,079
Speaker 1: be Wednesday. Yeah, we made that decision. Fred was nice

43
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: enough to grant Mike and I the practice extends into

44
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: the showtime, and we figured, you know, rather than changed

45
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 1: the show, and you know, having at two or three

46
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,920
Speaker 1: in the afternoon, you guys can wrap up what happened

47
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 1: at you know, get the blobservations up all that stuff,

48
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: and then we'll have a full show. We have, like,

49
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 1: you know, a few hours to ruminate on, you know,

50
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: full show on Wednesday of next week. So we'll be

51
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 1: on Wednesday and Thursdays Wednesday. Yeah, so next week Wednesday

52
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: and Thursday, twelve to two, just so everybody knows, be good,

53
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: get get another look. See if there's anybody else. Yeah,

54
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:18,839
Speaker 1: curious to see that, you know, some of those those

55
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: kinds of things. You know, Um, we had some players

56
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 1: that were around on Monday, but we're kind of not

57
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: really involved, you know, like Peppers and mcgron, you know,

58
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: Pierre Strong. I think there was you know, various levels

59
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: of player be curious to see if there's any progression

60
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: in that regard. You know, when we move ahead to

61
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: next week, I try not to get too carried away,

62
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 1: and mandatory mini camp will be the next week. So

63
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: that made me give you a little bit more in

64
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: terms of the attendance of some of the veteran guys

65
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 1: that weren't there. Maybe they show up. If they're not there,

66
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 1: that might be something. And it's hard to know too,

67
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: you know, along those lines, Mike, you know who's there,

68
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: but you don't really see there that you know. I mean,

69
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: I don't think both kickers decided to I'm not going

70
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,839
Speaker 1: to throw that. It's it's it's voluntary. I'm not going

71
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 1: I'm sure they were kicking somewhere. Yeah, probably you know,

72
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: inside or something or somewhere that we just didn't see them,

73
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 1: you know. So you know, there's fifteen twenty guys that

74
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: we didn't see. I think on Monday, I'd be curious

75
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: how many of those guys actually decided they're not going

76
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 1: to OTAs or maybe it was just a day that

77
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 1: now I can't today I got something. I mean, I've

78
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 1: seen plenty of times just random walking on the baby

79
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 1: having a baby six month process in the offseason having

80
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,840
Speaker 1: a baby. But you know, once you get them to mandatory,

81
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: medi can't maybe get a little bit clear of a picture.

82
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: But it'd be good to get back out there. I

83
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 1: feel like you get so overwhelmed that first day and

84
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 1: the numbers are new, when guys you know over here

85
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 1: and who's this and you don't really have a sense

86
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: of everybody yet, and it just gets so tough year

87
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 1: to year two where you always have like an offensive

88
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 1: linemen in number fifty eight that you know, it's just

89
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 1: you can't is that on when you like, is that

90
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 1: they all just kind of start to blend together a

91
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 1: little bit. I mean that that is really uh, it's

92
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: it's annoying beyond beyond belief at this point, like trying

93
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: to like, you know, get the smaller guys that are

94
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 1: in the big numbers, and you know, like, you know,

95
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 1: there's the poor punter out there. Who the punter there's

96
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 1: a second punter in camp Freddie Yeah, and I thank you.

97
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,160
Speaker 1: The name was escaping me at the moment. He does

98
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 1: not looked like a punter, you know, he's not the

99
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 1: tip of it. Doesn't look like Jake Bailey at all. Um.

100
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,159
Speaker 1: You know, and he's a little stocky and he's got

101
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,160
Speaker 1: like a sixty something number, right, uh, sixty two. He

102
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: looks like he could be an offensive linement. I'm not exaggeray,

103
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 1: he's a little short um, but he's a little thick

104
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 1: for an offensive alignement. Just and as I have said

105
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: all last year with Mac Jones, I know Doey, I know, overweight,

106
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: like you know, like this guy doesn't look like a

107
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: punter to me. And you know back up long snapper

108
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 1: two number seventy two. I said, you know, there's just

109
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: a lot to look at it focused on Tuesday and

110
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: a little bit more able to to watch things, but

111
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 1: you know talking about you know, scheme stuff and what

112
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: are they doing? And that's I was like, this is

113
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,840
Speaker 1: just a snapshot of like two weeks where they're out

114
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: there every day. You know, what are the what are

115
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 1: the chances that they were like, well, let's wait till

116
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: the media is there to really unveil the new stuff

117
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: that we're doing, Like we'll do it that day, right

118
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 1: and don't think and rightly so don't think Bill doesn't

119
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: think along those right, he knows the day the media

120
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: is there. The question is is if he decides to

121
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 1: put something boring in, or if he puts something completely

122
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,479
Speaker 1: extraneous in just to screw with everybody too, you know,

123
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 1: like like that's more common than all right, So today's

124
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 1: the day we'll put in all the secret stuff. Yeah,

125
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 1: the day the media is there here. Yeah, you know

126
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,600
Speaker 1: we're really thinking of moving you know, so and sod

127
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: this position. Let's do it on the day the media

128
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: is there. You know. That's why I think the mini camp.

129
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,279
Speaker 1: You get three consecutive days, and you know, it's a

130
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 1: little bit harder to hide stuff and everybody's supposed to

131
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 1: be there. So I'm I'm more this. It's just so

132
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: hard like people are and I hey, I love me

133
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: some five things to watch kind of post some stuff,

134
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 1: but like five things to watch it ota is really

135
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 1: like are you really? It's who's there? That that's kind

136
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 1: of it. Like after that, I came up with way

137
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 1: more than five things don't hate. I don't know what

138
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 1: I'm doing next week, but I had a good one week.

139
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 1: Forty seven things to see. I didn't do that. Does

140
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 1: Thornton look any faster? Has he gotten faster and gotten up?

141
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: I like, has a risk put out any weight? Yet

142
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: risks are still very very skinny. Yeah, yes, so, as

143
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 1: you can guess, we don't have much to talk about it.

144
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 1: I got one thing I thought was the practice squad stuff.

145
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: I thought that was a little bit of news yesterday

146
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 1: of of interest, which I'm glad I missed it. I'm glad.

147
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 1: So there instead of fourteen, they're up to up to

148
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: sixteen members of the practice squad. It wasn't sixteen was

149
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: supposed to there was. It was supposed to go as

150
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 1: the old CBA, the progression each year it went from

151
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 1: like twelve and then this year it was supposed to

152
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 1: be fourteen. But so they did away with that. They said,

153
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: let's just go straight to sixteen. I think it was

154
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 1: going to go to sixteen like next year maybe, so

155
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 1: they kept it at sixteen. So they kept it at

156
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: six Its been the last two right yep. And so

157
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 1: then you can elevate h three times and you can

158
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: have six veterans. So there's you know, they kept that,

159
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: which I mean, I'm a huge fan of it. I

160
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 1: think it's great just for being able to give veteran

161
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 1: guys jobs, having some some security on your roster of

162
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: backups who are experienced and you know, have the ability

163
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: to protect people a little bit. So, um, I think

164
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: it's I think it's good, especially for a team like

165
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: the Patriots where they're you know a little bit in transition,

166
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: they're able to you know, have a bigger roster and

167
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 1: hold on to more of those guys. I think it's

168
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 1: it's a good thing. I agree. I have a question.

169
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 1: It's more of a content question for fans. But you know,

170
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 1: there was news yesterday that the NFL wants to start

171
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 1: like an NFL Plus type thing, you know, similar to

172
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: what everybody else. And so my question that I'd love

173
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:48,319
Speaker 1: to get input from fans on is, other than having

174
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: access to any game at any time, what would you

175
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,320
Speaker 1: be what kype of content would you be willing to

176
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:57,680
Speaker 1: pay extra for or just pay for you know, you know, um,

177
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 1: and again outside of the game, you know, yeah, because

178
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:02,959
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people would be willing to

179
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 1: pay you know, five bucks a month to have access

180
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 1: to every game, you know, sure, Um, But outside of that,

181
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 1: what what would you be willing to pay money for?

182
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I would love it if they could fix

183
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 1: the All twenty two stuff. I mean last year, I know,

184
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 1: they completely redid it and they started from scratch on it. Um,

185
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 1: and it's just it it's really tough to watch. It's

186
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 1: really tough to watch now. You know, you used to

187
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 1: be able to search by a player and and and

188
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 1: categorize it by plays, and hey, you know, the Patriots

189
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,719
Speaker 1: just signed Kendrick Bourne. Let's put let's search him. Let's

190
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 1: see all his big plays that he's had over the

191
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:37,959
Speaker 1: last three years, and you could search that and you

192
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 1: can watch it on the All twenty two when you

193
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 1: pop up. You know now the way it is, it's

194
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 1: it's you gotta pick which camera you want. Do you

195
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 1: want the end zone camera, do you want the big

196
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 1: guy in the sky, and then it just kind of

197
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 1: runs through the plays you can't search. So, I mean,

198
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,680
Speaker 1: I know this is the nerd part of the program,

199
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,439
Speaker 1: but but for me, that was just something that that

200
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 1: that that completely got taken apart and just kind of

201
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 1: thrown back together and it's nowhere near as it used

202
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 1: to be. I'm not aware of all that stuff, but

203
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 1: I would agree with Mike on that. I think if

204
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 1: they had that feature that was easily sortable and surgeable

205
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 1: and they took it away, that's that's a step in

206
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 1: the wrong direction. I would say, fred Danton, your request. Um,

207
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 1: I would be interested in paying for something, And I

208
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: know this probably is unlikely to happen, but something hard

209
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:26,679
Speaker 1: knocks ish for behind for my team? Can I get

210
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 1: any behind the scenes content that's not public? Now? I

211
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 1: know that that's a huge ask, right, I'm not stupid,

212
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 1: especially for organizations like hours that are pretty guarded with

213
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,079
Speaker 1: you know, the the behind the curtain stuff. But anything

214
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 1: that I could get that's not public uh publicly accessed,

215
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 1: I'd be willing to pay five What about what about

216
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: stats wise like anything? Do you care about that, like

217
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: the next gen stuff? For any of that? I mean,

218
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 1: I think I'm a bad example for that because I

219
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 1: think there are a lot of people who love that,

220
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: love that stuff and love you know, if you could

221
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: incorporate PFF or advanced the analytics kind of stuff into it.

222
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 1: But not not really for me. That that's not something

223
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 1: I'm really dying for. I like to be able to

224
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: just kind of watch it and interpret it myself. It's

225
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 1: not for me either, But for the people that do

226
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,320
Speaker 1: like it, I think they have it For those kinds

227
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 1: of things, I think they can pay for. Right. What

228
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 1: about gambling? Anything there? I think? Can I say? I

229
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,560
Speaker 1: think I think anything and everything. If you think, I

230
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 1: think there's an enormous I have this idea for you know,

231
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 1: the league can't actually take the bets, you know what

232
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,079
Speaker 1: I mean, Like they can't get into the business of

233
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 1: being a bookie, not yet, right, but but um, I

234
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,559
Speaker 1: have an idea for the league to build this engine

235
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 1: or engine as I say. And what this does is

236
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: it you go in there, you pay like a subscriber fee,

237
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 1: and it offers you all the bets that all the

238
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 1: approved bookies are offering, like MGM and Caesar's and all that,

239
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 1: and so you can look at everything from who's gonna

240
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 1: win to over and under two the little microprop bets,

241
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 1: and you use this engine to place your bets with

242
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 1: these approved you know houses. And the engine also tracks

243
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 1: your bet on game day, so you know, during the

244
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: game you're watching the game, you can also see how

245
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: your bets are doing. Am I winning? Am I losing?

246
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 1: What's the probability of me making money today? And you

247
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 1: can like you know, go in and make more bets,

248
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: you know. So it's this like total like sort of

249
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 1: platform that manages your game day gambling. Um. And you know,

250
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: the league, what how the league makes money is the

251
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 1: Caesars and the MGMs of the world pay to be

252
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: part of this engine, you know, so my, my, my

253
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:41,960
Speaker 1: offerings are being exposed to you know, the person um,

254
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 1: but the league doesn't take any vig or anything like

255
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:47,959
Speaker 1: that obviously. You know what would would would part of

256
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 1: it be that, you know, I'm getting these odds from MGM,

257
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 1: but I'm getting a's part of it. You you can shop.

258
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 1: And also, you know, prop bets aren't the same with

259
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 1: every house, so like MGM might be doing a certain

260
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 1: type of prop bed and Caesars is doing a completely

261
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,079
Speaker 1: different one. Oh, this is an interesting one. Yeah, if

262
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:10,839
Speaker 1: you could sort by game down on this bed, you know,

263
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 1: for you know, when I you know, dabbled a little

264
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,960
Speaker 1: bit in college football gambling way back when like I

265
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 1: know I'm going to be stuck watching this game. I

266
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 1: can sort by the game, pull that game up and

267
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 1: gives me everything, the line, the props, everything right there,

268
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,840
Speaker 1: and I can shut and this manages for you. And

269
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 1: so at any point in time during the day, you

270
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: can see how am I doing? Am I up? Am

271
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 1: I down? You know? And what about like draft Kings

272
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 1: or you know, daily fantasy where you have a team,

273
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 1: is there could there be Ye, I think I wasn't

274
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,040
Speaker 1: you know. I think that might be overcomplicating it a

275
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 1: little bit. Yeah, you know, um, but this is for

276
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 1: like straight betting with the with the sports books. Yeah

277
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,680
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, well I think if the comparison, you know,

278
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: and having one stop shop for for everything, if if

279
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 1: you if you're into that kind of I like it.

280
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: I'm not the next I mean, yeah, it's again, it's

281
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 1: not geared to me, but I can understand the appeal,

282
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 1: you know, like if you know, like and you can

283
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: you can do the micro bets, like it's a buck.

284
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do a buck on this prop bet, and

285
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 1: so I have fifty dollars that I'm gonna play with

286
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 1: on game day and I'm gonna spread it out and

287
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 1: then see how I'm doing. You know. Yeah. It's like

288
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 1: you see on Twitter all the time, you know. I

289
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 1: think Ravel, Darren Ravel always tweets out these outrageous parlays

290
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 1: that get hit, you know, like sixteen team parley, you know,

291
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: like and you're win fifty grand. But this is a

292
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 1: good way to like track it. You have it in

293
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: an easy yeah, easily digest. How's my parlay doing up?

294
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 1: I just lost or I'm still in the running. You know,

295
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 1: all I need is these two other things. But you

296
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:39,400
Speaker 1: have it all in front of you, decide what you

297
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: want to do, yes, even before you know, like obviously

298
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 1: anybody can track their own bets, but like I have

299
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 1: all of my options very easily digestible right in front

300
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: of me. I think people would pay. I think, you know,

301
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 1: this is probably part to have this engine available to them,

302
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 1: and I think the the sports books would pay to

303
00:14:57,760 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 1: be part of it. Yeah, it guess. I mean it's

304
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 1: can convenience. I don't know enough about people's gambling habits

305
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: of you know, are you kind of dedicated to one

306
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 1: particular place, like I just I only go with this

307
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 1: outlet you know that and this you set up an

308
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 1: account and so then it's convenient. And how much of

309
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 1: that is done? Like again I'm asking because I don't

310
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 1: I don't do any of this, but like I know,

311
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 1: like draft kings sites are huge now with all their

312
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 1: like the tradition not just fantasy, daily fantasy, but regular

313
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 1: sports betting, right, I mean, how much of that has

314
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 1: already done? Well, it's done. But again, when you're with

315
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: draft Kings, you're just doing DraftKings you're just doing their book. Yeah,

316
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 1: you know this exposes you to everyone's books. That's part

317
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 1: of it. And like you said, you can shop, you know,

318
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 1: like I can get minus seven here, but I can

319
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 1: get seven and a half year. I'm gonna put it

320
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: with this one. If there was a Draft Kings kind

321
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 1: of element to it, I wonder if they're by they

322
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 1: a service to have a consultant, you know, somebody privately

323
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: or whatever can look at your team and say advisor, advisor,

324
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 1: and I'll give you some some tips. I'm a consultant.

325
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 1: I consultant. Well, I go back to you know, my

326
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 1: cousins were all way into it, and we went to

327
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 1: the Patriots forty nine Ers game back in twenty sixteen.

328
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 1: You know, it's great family trip. Let's all stay in

329
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 1: the hotel, we get up game day morning and there

330
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 1: are they got like spreadsheets out there. I mean it

331
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 1: was a whole thing for them though. And the multiple

332
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 1: lineups and you know, trying to find that one key

333
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 1: random dude who's gonna go off that one day that

334
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: that seems like everything in Daily Fantasy. So it's a

335
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: it's a huge world, huge world, sure, you know. So

336
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: again I'm throwing out there. What would you be willing

337
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 1: to pay money for in terms of content or things

338
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 1: like this. You know this isn't necessary content, but it's

339
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: a tool that you know. Uh, and Mike brought up,

340
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 1: you know, an old San Francisco game from twenty sixteen.

341
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 1: In terms of news in the league, there was some

342
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 1: news yesterday had not really involving the Patriots by Colin Kaepernick,

343
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 1: you know, supposedly getting a tryout with the with the

344
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 1: Raiders Josh McDaniels deciding to bring him in to give

345
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 1: him a look and see what comes and what do

346
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 1: I gotta do? Seriously, well, you brought the forty nine

347
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:09,640
Speaker 1: ers up. I thought you were going to talk about

348
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:15,359
Speaker 1: that linebacker that got into the thing Law. It didn't.

349
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,119
Speaker 1: The kid kept asking what did I What did I say? What?

350
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,400
Speaker 1: You know? What? What? He never would he never got

351
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,879
Speaker 1: into it. I didn't see it. So I guess Javon

352
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 1: Kin Law has had a problem with the the Sports

353
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 1: Illustrated San Francisco guy, I think his name is Grant

354
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 1: Cohen or something like cone Um and he sort of

355
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,399
Speaker 1: confronted him on the practice field the other day. And

356
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:43,920
Speaker 1: I don't know, like I generally, I generally I'm on

357
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:45,919
Speaker 1: the side of the player on these kinds of things.

358
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 1: But then I guess he was, you know, so he

359
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 1: confronted the guy and whatever, and you know, that was that.

360
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 1: And then the guy was doing like a video podcast,

361
00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 1: like a video report, and they told Ken Law that

362
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 1: he's out doing it. So he he goes, I want

363
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 1: to be part of this. I want to be on it.

364
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,440
Speaker 1: So I guess he went on it, you know, a

365
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 1: via zoom or something like that, right, Yeah, did you

366
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 1: see this? I didn't see it. I heard it. Yeah,

367
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 1: And he just like Fred's right, he just like the

368
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 1: guy kept saying, well, what did I write? What did

369
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: I say? And he just wanted to be like a big, intimidating,

370
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:24,200
Speaker 1: tough guy, you know, while eating, like I'm tougher than you,

371
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 1: Like he's got food in his mouth. Yeah. It was like, yeah,

372
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 1: you know, you know, you you coward, you cowared like

373
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:34,360
Speaker 1: a little like respect my name. It's like, what did

374
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 1: I do to disrespect? And he wouldn't answer. He never answered.

375
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 1: So I don't know if the guy is like a

376
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 1: muck ray. I find him. Hard to believe that anybody

377
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:46,679
Speaker 1: nowadays around the league, especially anybody doing like video podcasts,

378
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: is killing the players, Like I'm sorry, they're all so

379
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 1: pro player, pro team. Now. I don't really think that

380
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,280
Speaker 1: anybody could have done anything that was that bad. So

381
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,120
Speaker 1: kin Law came off really poorly, I thought. And it's

382
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: not really sports illustrated anymore, like you, but it's sports

383
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:06,440
Speaker 1: illustrated like dot forty nine ers, right man, Like every

384
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 1: buddy that does our pre and postgame pregame show from Miami, Paul, Yeah,

385
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,399
Speaker 1: he I think does some of that stuff for Sports

386
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 1: Illustrated Miami. Is that what? Oh? No, Henry, I don't

387
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 1: know who the Henry is Henry that guy for the Today,

388
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 1: But it's like kind of similar ways that they've tacked,

389
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,119
Speaker 1: but they all have like a blog team by he

390
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 1: might be a USA. It's so funny, you know. You know,

391
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 1: you call it a podcast and you you do something

392
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 1: for a half hour an hour, and all that does

393
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,639
Speaker 1: is take it one step above just posting on social media.

394
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,159
Speaker 1: I mean, anybody can do it, you know, but it

395
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,679
Speaker 1: gives it a little bit more legitimacy. Like nowadays, like

396
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 1: all the controversial stuff is being set on these stupid podcasts. Yeah,

397
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:52,679
Speaker 1: you know, like because people get on it and they

398
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 1: they act more relaxed and whether you know what's from

399
00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 1: the top like Lebron James show, you know, down to

400
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 1: like this guy. You know, you feel like you could

401
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 1: say whatever you want and people are getting in trouble.

402
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 1: And I got the opinion, I mean the impression I

403
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 1: should say, um that it might have been like injury related,

404
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 1: like he didn't like that he was talking about his

405
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 1: injury or something like that, something like you said, I

406
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 1: was in the training room and I wasn't in the

407
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 1: training room. Yeah, training rooms, not even here, something like

408
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 1: I don't even know, like why that would have gotten

409
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 1: him so mad. And then someone had said because I

410
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,479
Speaker 1: was listening to this untoucher and rich, I assume that's

411
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:30,440
Speaker 1: what Fred was hearing it too, Um not my show.

412
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 1: Never really been on that show, um. But someone had

413
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:40,399
Speaker 1: looked back and saw that other other players were upset

414
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 1: with this guy. And I think Deebo Samuel was like saying,

415
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 1: you know, calling it uh FN right, And I assume

416
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 1: that that Oh, no, FR fake reporter. I assumed that

417
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 1: means FR. I don't want anybody named. It could be

418
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,000
Speaker 1: it could be a lot of things. Far. No, that's true,

419
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,399
Speaker 1: that's true. You're right, you know, I was trying to

420
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 1: be clean. Yeah, with the Dynasty book in the background.

421
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,160
Speaker 1: There you go. Geez. I wonder how he got ahold

422
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:18,360
Speaker 1: of that. Yeah, there we go. Um let's see. Uh, Tim,

423
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 1: our friend from Duncan writes in to answer your question

424
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 1: regarding what I would pay five bucks a month for.

425
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 1: I think about the time you had the Not Done

426
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:29,200
Speaker 1: Network one year for Super Bowl Week. You had everything

427
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 1: related to the Patriots that was live, and then you

428
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,479
Speaker 1: showed all of the great Patriots games in the off hours.

429
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,120
Speaker 1: I remember what an undertaking that was, but I must

430
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:41,440
Speaker 1: tell you it was great and worth paying for. It's

431
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 1: gonna cushie. But that's the other thing, you know, from

432
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 1: the team side, if you're offering it, it's got to

433
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 1: be sustainable, right. That's not sustainable, right, And that's what

434
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:55,200
Speaker 1: I was saying, like behind the scenes stuff. Yeah right,

435
00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 1: ray Leota did huh. No, I didn't know it was sick.

436
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 1: I think I knew he was sick. But he says,

437
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 1: I'm seeing a banner here sixty sixty seven. Oh, I

438
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 1: didn't know that it was that old either, ray Leoda.

439
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,880
Speaker 1: That's that's was he in Good Fellas? Who did he play?

440
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 1: He was the guy Henry Hill. Oh okay, yeah all right.

441
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 1: Uh my wife Lane interviewed him once that one of

442
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 1: her old jobs, and thought he was just the greatest guy,

443
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 1: had a great had a great story. Just like did

444
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 1: he have the story? Uh you know the laugh from

445
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 1: Field of Dreams? Probably right right, that's that's what he said. Yeah,

446
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: he was in Field of Dreams? Ye? Now who was

447
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:41,879
Speaker 1: he in that? She was the guy? I think he

448
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 1: came out of the corn. That's that's so interesting, had

449
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:48,160
Speaker 1: a storied career. I wasn't even aware what else hand?

Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh yeah. He was York, New York, New York, York.

456
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 1: Um Anthony writes in from Connecticut. Long time, no email,

457
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 1: But I heard about the NFL unveiling NFL plus this

458
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 1: summer and was wondering if that was going to affect

459
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:26,399
Speaker 1: content coming from you guys. Uh not not to my knowledge. No,

460
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,160
Speaker 1: as for my patriots question, if you gave Robert Craft

461
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,160
Speaker 1: Truth Serum, how long do you think that leash would

462
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 1: be for Mac Jones? In other words, what is he

463
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 1: looking for in Mac? In same question for what Bill

464
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:42,160
Speaker 1: thinks of Mac. I think he's looking for wins wins. Yeah,

465
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 1: but how long would the leash be? Three years? Yeah,

466
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:50,280
Speaker 1: until I think if you don't see steady improvement after

467
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 1: three years, you start looking for the next right, And

468
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,879
Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. I'm not like, like, if he

469
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: has two more years like the first year, I don't

470
00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 1: think they'll pull the plug. But if he you know,

471
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 1: like Plateautin is going the other way, and you got

472
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 1: to think about it, well's I think that having to

473
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 1: pick up the option will be at the after year three.

474
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 1: That's kind of that inflection point of that's why why

475
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 1: I chose that. Yeah, yeah, I mean today, I think

476
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:20,680
Speaker 1: that's gonna be That'd be interesting, That'd be interesting. Um.

477
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,120
Speaker 1: Let's say James, the most interesting Patriots fan of the world,

478
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 1: says he's in Scotland at the moment, Edinburgh and pay

479
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 1: for the European version of Sunday ticket. It comes with

480
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 1: every NFL game, which I don't care for, and loads

481
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,680
Speaker 1: up other NFL crap. I would like a package like that.

482
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:41,639
Speaker 1: Um would be Patriots games, Red Zone, NFL Network, and

483
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:46,720
Speaker 1: NFL films. NHL lets me buy either all Bruins games

484
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 1: or all NHL games. Do it, Fred? Yeah, so that's

485
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,640
Speaker 1: the games, obviously, I think, and I think there will

486
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 1: be something in terms of games domestically. But games, yes.

487
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 1: I mean, we've had Sunday ticket forever and people bought

488
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 1: direct TV just because they wanted. I mean, the games

489
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,920
Speaker 1: are the are the crown jewel. I get that that's

490
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 1: worth paying money for. But besides that, that's what I'm

491
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 1: looking for. I think you need to access I mean

492
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 1: maybe they already have this too, but I mean access

493
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,399
Speaker 1: to the NFL films library. You know, I'm demondered about that.

494
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 1: Like if you watch any game, you know, the end

495
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:25,680
Speaker 1: of pass games, you know, like from the history of

496
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 1: the NFL, would that be worth paying for? I mean

497
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:30,399
Speaker 1: give me that, give me all the coaching life or

498
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,679
Speaker 1: the football life's give me those. Okay, So you pay

499
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,879
Speaker 1: for that for one year? Would you pay for it

500
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 1: for two years? Like the second year would be like

501
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 1: I really need this, you know, That's what I wonder, Like, like,

502
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:43,640
Speaker 1: you know, one of I was talking with the league,

503
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 1: and one of the examples I used was Mandalorian, Like,

504
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 1: I like, when I'm watching Mandalorian, I'm so glad that

505
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 1: I bought Disney Plus like that, like, Okay, it's worth it,

506
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,640
Speaker 1: you know. And that's the key. That's to me, that's

507
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 1: the test. When you're watching the content, are you happy

508
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 1: you made that purchase? Yeah? I think that's a great example.

509
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,359
Speaker 1: I mean, and I would, you know, piggyback off that

510
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:08,879
Speaker 1: and say, you know, I'm the same way with Mandalorian

511
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 1: and now with Obi Wan Premier, Like I haven't probably

512
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 1: watched Disney Plus at all since Mandalorian ended, but I

513
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 1: kept it. You don't care you have it because there's

514
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 1: something that you will, right. I know, they're going to

515
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,199
Speaker 1: keep churning out that kind of content and it's too

516
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,359
Speaker 1: much of a pain in the butt to stop paying

517
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,159
Speaker 1: six bucks a month or whatever it is. What if

518
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,120
Speaker 1: you had um and I don't know if you can't

519
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:32,480
Speaker 1: even do this, but during games, um you had some

520
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:38,480
Speaker 1: sort of hometown like maning cast. Yeah, that's alternate viewing

521
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 1: or something. Yeah. Yeah, do we already say that. I'm sorry, no, no, no, no, no,

522
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 1: that's a that's a that's another one. And let's just

523
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 1: say that's say, well, we can't do that because we

524
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,400
Speaker 1: have to protect a broadcast. Right, what if you had

525
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 1: that same idea, But it's after the game, so a

526
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 1: reviewing of the game. So I've watched the game, but

527
00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 1: now I'm going to watch it with you know, mattch

528
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: ch Adam or whoever. Yeah, you know and Matt Chadam. Okay,

529
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 1: but it's going to be a director's cut of the

530
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 1: game from this, you know, person's opinion who I respect

531
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 1: or can give me insight that Chris collins Worth and

532
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 1: you know how Michael's even couldn't. I think it's a

533
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,199
Speaker 1: really interesting question. Um, that would be worth a study

534
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 1: of some sort. What are fans viewing habits after the game,

535
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 1: whether the team wins or loses? What are you are? You?

536
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,359
Speaker 1: Are you more likely a winner or a loss? I

537
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 1: mean I think everybody would probably or not everybody. But

538
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 1: I think what makes the most sense is people would

539
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:38,080
Speaker 1: want to tune into team specific content, so you know,

540
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 1: coming right into a Patriot's perspective of the loss or

541
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 1: the win. But do people want that? Is that? You know?

542
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 1: Or do people just all right, I watched the game

543
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 1: it's been a long day. I got things to do.

544
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,400
Speaker 1: I'm not ready to jump into you know, to watch

545
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 1: for another hour. I mean, I know people listen to

546
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 1: the postgame show. It's a little different though when it's

547
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 1: a you know, a TV show that you have to

548
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 1: watch and sit down and be around for. So I

549
00:27:58,119 --> 00:27:59,680
Speaker 1: don't know, I just would wonder what what are fans

550
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,399
Speaker 1: view habits like before and before the game too? And

551
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:05,159
Speaker 1: after the game? Is there a space there too? Um?

552
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 1: I mean we obviously we do the pre and postgame show.

553
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,080
Speaker 1: Those you know, work pretty well, but you know, as

554
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:11,920
Speaker 1: there could could it be bigger? Could it be bigger

555
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 1: than that? And it's also kind of one of the

556
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 1: tests I had for like stuff you're willing to pay

557
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 1: for is if I don't watch it, if I don't

558
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,879
Speaker 1: see it, I'm not part of the conversation because so

559
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 1: many people are watching it. So like for a team

560
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 1: were they like, so many people watch this thing. If

561
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:30,880
Speaker 1: I don't watch it, then I don't know what people

562
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 1: were talking about. You know. Yeah, that's hard. That's a

563
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 1: tough bar to hit because it's gotta be like really

564
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 1: really compelling content, you know, water cooler type content. Yeah,

565
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 1: you know, right, it's tough. I mean, you know, I

566
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 1: think I mean sometimes get a player. You know, it's

567
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 1: like little things that you could see, like if we

568
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,320
Speaker 1: had like a you know again Pie in the Sky,

569
00:28:56,560 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 1: but if you could have like two or three different

570
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 1: player podcast like they own it, it's their shows, but

571
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,480
Speaker 1: we we have it under our umbrella and you pay

572
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 1: you know, X amount per month to have access to

573
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 1: these players shows. Would you be willing to pay for that?

574
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 1: I don't know, I wouldn't. I mean, the only thing

575
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 1: and there's no way of ever knowing this, like if

576
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 1: you hit gold, like if you have like a Pat

577
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,000
Speaker 1: McAfee right, like you never know if you have that

578
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 1: guy right right, you know, and that's just the personality

579
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 1: drive person right. It would have to be something that

580
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:35,040
Speaker 1: you would do and then you to you a point, Fred,

581
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 1: you'd be hearing about it like, hey, you know this

582
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 1: this Peyton Manning cast him and UI are kind of funny.

583
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna listen, you know, the third week that they

584
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:44,719
Speaker 1: do it, you know, people are talking about this, that's

585
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:47,120
Speaker 1: kind of funny. I'm gonna try it. Pat McAfee show

586
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 1: has taken off, right, but I don't know how many

587
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,960
Speaker 1: shows how many like if the Colts ever could rap

588
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 1: bring him back in right now they have they have

589
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 1: a winner. I mean you could do it with Brady

590
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 1: like I mean, I know he's not you know not,

591
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,960
Speaker 1: but but every team has that, right if you had

592
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:04,640
Speaker 1: after the game, here's gonna be your direct access to

593
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 1: a famous Hall of Fame player breaking down what just happened.

594
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 1: I mean, no, no disrespect to me and Paul and party,

595
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 1: but you know that's one of those things that you

596
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,239
Speaker 1: get a guy of that caliber. It doesn't matter if

597
00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 1: he sucks like that's that. That's like right, what we

598
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 1: were talking about, Like if if we ever get Bill

599
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 1: to do anything right and doesn't matter if he doesn't

600
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,200
Speaker 1: have anything to say, it's Bill. It's Bill. Every people

601
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 1: hang on everywhere, interest and everything that he does right,

602
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 1: The same would be the case with a guy like Brady. Yeah. Um,

603
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 1: speaking of Brady. Um, his little internet fraud yesterday, Oh

604
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 1: that was that was made up. He didn't really hit

605
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 1: a hole on one. What do you think? I don't know?

606
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,080
Speaker 1: I mean, Matt, what do you think? I mean? I

607
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 1: need to see it from the videos. I saw no

608
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 1: way they said that. They actually they filmed every one

609
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:56,959
Speaker 1: of his shots, and so that he happened to hit

610
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 1: a hole in one. So it's not like they happen

611
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 1: to have a camera on that time and he hit

612
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 1: a hole in one. No, they shot the whole round. No,

613
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 1: I I know, but like there's no real shot of

614
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: the shot. Yeah, there's this lame the drone pilot, which

615
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 1: looks completely hard to do, like the drone I know,

616
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,480
Speaker 1: looks kind of cgish to me. Really, I don't know,

617
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 1: Like I was just happy to see something go right

618
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:23,840
Speaker 1: for him. You know, it's been a tough grime. He

619
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 1: caught a break well, speaking of like what to believe

620
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,560
Speaker 1: on Twitter, Like, there was a picture going around the

621
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:35,160
Speaker 1: other day of Aaron Judge and he's got a Poland

622
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 1: Springs bottle and it's they claim it's a it's a

623
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 1: normal size bottle, but it looks like a little thing

624
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 1: in his hands. And I guess I think it was photoshop.

625
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 1: But it was so funny. I was gonna starting, I

626
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:51,200
Speaker 1: like Aaron Judge. I was gonna start like, you know, uh,

627
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 1: putting mentions in, like you know, Aaron Judge miss like

628
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 1: you know, his foot is so big and he can't

629
00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 1: fit in the batter's box and you know, things like

630
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:02,760
Speaker 1: that he's a giant. He's like almost out of proportion.

631
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 1: He's just that big for base. Imagine, he's just gotta be.

632
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I saw a picture I think from of

633
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 1: him from like high school where it was he was

634
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 1: already just well, this is what I hope Paul knows.

635
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 1: This is what I hope for Aaron Judge. I wanted

636
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:18,720
Speaker 1: him to be the next Babe Ruth, you know, the

637
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 1: bigger than the game. And like now I don't know

638
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:26,719
Speaker 1: if he's gonna resign with the Yankees. Um a lot

639
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 1: of money. No matter where he goes, he's gonna like

640
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 1: break the bank. But I hope, I kind of hope

641
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:35,640
Speaker 1: he stays with the Yankees because that's where that guy

642
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:41,480
Speaker 1: should be in New York. Judge one right down the line,

643
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 1: you know, like, yeah, but I love him in the

644
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 1: Red Sox of course, but like you know, he could

645
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 1: be out on the Red Sox of the Dodgers, yeah,

646
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 1: the Yankees, but like he can't be like a Kansas

647
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:58,000
Speaker 1: City royal, Yeah, like Otani over with the Angels. Yeah,

648
00:32:58,040 --> 00:32:59,600
Speaker 1: So that's what I was going to bring up. Yeah,

649
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,480
Speaker 1: a ceiling, right, imagine if he was doing that for

650
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 1: the Yankees of the Red Sox, Right, right, so maybe someday.

651
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 1: But I love I love me, Smaron Judge. Yeah, there's

652
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: as much. Yeah, it's really kind of weird. He loves

653
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:18,800
Speaker 1: great athletes. He just like it's just but they haven't

654
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,239
Speaker 1: won the title yet. Usually you waited till the well

655
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 1: And this kind of feeds into how I felt about

656
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,840
Speaker 1: Sedano Chart. There are certain professional athletes where it's just

657
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 1: you're too big, Like it's unfair, you know, like you

658
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,560
Speaker 1: shouldn't be allowed. You know, like it's like okay, like

659
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 1: you're just and I mean, you get it. In high school.

660
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 1: I bring up Kara Walters, who was in my high school,

661
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,960
Speaker 1: was just she's six six in high school, there's you know,

662
00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:40,960
Speaker 1: these little girls running around her. They just throw to

663
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 1: her and she's just I know, and not every big

664
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 1: guy can hit like he can in the pros. You know, yeah, um,

665
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,360
Speaker 1: they just too awkward. And he's got it all and

666
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 1: he can steal bases, he can play. He's a good player.

667
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,480
Speaker 1: He's a good all around player. He's not he's not

668
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:58,960
Speaker 1: just a home run. He's a good hitter and he's

669
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,800
Speaker 1: a good all around player. Yeah, it's too big though,

670
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 1: you got too many kings, but that was the Dano.

671
00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 1: I'm just like, he's the greatest defenseman, Like he's the

672
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:12,200
Speaker 1: biggest defenseman of all time and everything that goes with that.

673
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 1: I mean, he's good. He's tough, for sure, but he's

674
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,280
Speaker 1: also got an immense advantage over everybody else. I remember

675
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 1: when first I remember when they signed Chara originally and

676
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,040
Speaker 1: I was on, you know, Fred likes to make fun.

677
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 1: It's like weekend Ei. It was like Mark Sivard and

678
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,759
Speaker 1: jar I think around the same time they signed them both,

679
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:33,440
Speaker 1: if I recall in, it was just like, really, is

680
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 1: n't like the six nine guys like one of the

681
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,959
Speaker 1: greatest Bruins ever. I mean, it's got to be scary

682
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 1: to play. I mean I played against haw Haw Gil,

683
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:44,719
Speaker 1: who was who was no small small guy. He was

684
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:46,240
Speaker 1: just saying it was the guy who was in the NHL.

685
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:49,879
Speaker 1: That's that's the guy that you're talking about. Yeah, you're big,

686
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 1: You're big. He had no other skill other than you size.

687
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:55,919
Speaker 1: All due respect to how Gil, he's an NHL player,

688
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,439
Speaker 1: but I couldn't stay. He smoked me in Fall League

689
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,160
Speaker 1: one time too, So sorry, how five Now you got

690
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:05,160
Speaker 1: mad because you you hit I don't like five hundred

691
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,279
Speaker 1: is the a ticket outline? Let's go to Christian in

696
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,880
Speaker 1: in a TV mood, in in a wondering mood. Like

00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:25,880
Speaker 1: I said, I work in holliways, all that stuff always

698

00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,280
Speaker 1: I'm sorry starts to not following, while you guys actually

700
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,040
Speaker 1: at the practice? Do you see the players only once

701
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,319
Speaker 1: a week? On Monday? We were Yeah, we were there.

702
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,160
Speaker 1: Mike and I were out at Monday's practice. Will you

703
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:43,960
Speaker 1: guys go out to see the players? Do you do

704
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 1: you put a focus on Oh yeah, we want to.

705
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 1: We want to put our eyes on this guy so

706
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 1: we can give information. Or do you try to like

707
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:52,719
Speaker 1: put your eyes on as many different guys that you

708
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,640
Speaker 1: cannot Do you focus on something specific? I try to

709
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:57,320
Speaker 1: watch as much as I can. Yeah, I try to

710
00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:59,920
Speaker 1: see what catch am. I definitely have a kind of

711
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,840
Speaker 1: curiosity of what the kind of personnel packages are and

712
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 1: like I said on Tuesday, you can definitely tell there's

713
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:08,160
Speaker 1: a line between guys who are kind of with the

714
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 1: starting playing kind of group and then young guys who

715
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 1: were with the kind of working group. So it's it's

716
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:15,319
Speaker 1: that and you know who kind of goes in when,

717
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:18,359
Speaker 1: and you know, certain plays catch your eye. But I think,

718
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:20,120
Speaker 1: I think, I mean, that's kind of what we're getting

719
00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 1: to at the beginning. Was just now going into the

720
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,640
Speaker 1: second practice. All right, this is what I missed. Now

721
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 1: I really want to focus in more on, you know,

722
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,840
Speaker 1: a few handful of certain things to see if you

723
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:31,640
Speaker 1: can gather anything. But it's tough. You never know who's

724
00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 1: not competitive, what they're doing. Yeah, you know, but we

725
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 1: watch what we you know, he's just asking what we're

726
00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 1: looking at. And I agree with Mike. I think the

727
00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:41,759
Speaker 1: packages um and the groupings are much more important anything else.

728
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 1: But I do try to focus specifically on any newcomers,

729
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 1: whether it be a guy like DeVante Parker I was

730
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 1: watching on Monday, or the rookies, yeah, young guys that

731
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:57,000
Speaker 1: haven't really played yet. You know, you try to get

732
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,400
Speaker 1: a feel for how they move and what what some

733
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 1: of the things they dogether like when you guys focus

734
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:04,200
Speaker 1: on the running back when you guys focus on defense.

735
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 1: I never how do you well give us well, no,

736
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:15,360
Speaker 1: like for T camp, which training camp starts, um, you know,

737
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:19,000
Speaker 1: and like we can see every practice like for you know,

738
00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 1: two or three weeks. We we kind of I do

739
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:24,080
Speaker 1: that sometimes, like I'll say, Okay, I'm gonna go focus

740
00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:27,919
Speaker 1: on this offensive defensive line drills, you know, and I'll

741
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 1: call out who I think just one a drill, you know,

742
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,360
Speaker 1: while other guys might be watching the wide receivers, you know,

743
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 1: because it's it is, it's like a five ring circus

744
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:41,320
Speaker 1: stirring training camp, and really wherever you look, there's something

745
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 1: to focus on. Yeah, I mean it's it's kind of

746
00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:46,319
Speaker 1: they'll be in different drills, and so sometimes it's hard

747
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,399
Speaker 1: because do you want to watch the wide receivers going

748
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 1: against the cornerbacks or do you want to watch the

749
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:53,319
Speaker 1: defensive lineman going against the offensive lineman. So you kind

750
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,640
Speaker 1: of have to to pick your spots sometimes. But and

751
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:59,360
Speaker 1: there's like Fred said, there's a lot going get in there. Yeah, okay.

752
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 1: So it's the end of the season, we are headed

753
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:07,200
Speaker 1: into our second game of the playoff. What would Max

754
00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:09,800
Speaker 1: that have to have been in your guy's eyes, for

755
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 1: us to be there, Ah, thirty touchdowns, I think he's

756
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:21,360
Speaker 1: got to have um sixty five plus percentage completion. I

757
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 1: think he's got to have thirty touchdowns, ten interceptions, ten

758
00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 1: interceptions about you know, like maybe a little bit more.

759
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 1: It's okay, what does the defense do? Like, I think

760
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:34,320
Speaker 1: we're just talking about back? I know, what how do

761
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:36,719
Speaker 1: you answer that question? No, I know, but I'm just

762
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:39,920
Speaker 1: saying Max's part of it. Obviously. My my record for

763
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:43,479
Speaker 1: the Patriots right now is still eight nine. It's still

764
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 1: eight nine because I'm so unsure of the defense. You know,

765
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:49,319
Speaker 1: so even with those stats, the record would be eight

766
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:52,920
Speaker 1: and nine. If the defense doesn't play well. Yeah, what

767
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,839
Speaker 1: if the offense doesn't play well well, then everything gets

768
00:38:55,880 --> 00:39:00,040
Speaker 1: thrown out the window, you know, jish I mean, and

769
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:01,880
Speaker 1: both sides of the ball aren't playing well, they're not

770
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 1: gonna they're not gonna win game. But no, what if

771
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:06,759
Speaker 1: the offense doesn't play well in the defense, does it

772
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:10,279
Speaker 1: could be still eate nine? Yeah? Yeah? Yeah, I mean,

773
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,319
Speaker 1: I mean, I think where you're trying to get at

774
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 1: is what kind of you know, performance you made out

775
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:16,759
Speaker 1: of Mac Jones? What kind of progress could you get.

776
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:19,279
Speaker 1: I need it. I just don't think it'll show up.

777
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:21,880
Speaker 1: I know it's simple, it sounds simple, But I need

778
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 1: teams to stop saying that the Patriots are easy to defend. Yeah,

779
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:27,719
Speaker 1: that's what I need. More of the Cleveland game where

780
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:31,040
Speaker 1: it just seems like, man, they're rolling. Everything's kind of working. Yeah,

781
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 1: well for you guys for that to happen, but teams

782
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 1: to stay they're not easy to defend. Which which players are? Like,

783
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,759
Speaker 1: what's the po with the running game? Have to pick up? No,

784
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,760
Speaker 1: it's Mac, Mac has to Mac has to get smarter.

785
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:47,840
Speaker 1: What's the X factor for you guys, Matt Jones, Mac Jones,

786
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:51,920
Speaker 1: it's max max improvement, his development, his understanding of what

787
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:53,880
Speaker 1: he's looking at when he looks at a defense, his

788
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:57,200
Speaker 1: pre snap reads, all that stuff. The better he gets

789
00:39:57,239 --> 00:39:58,880
Speaker 1: at that, the heart of the Patriots are going to

790
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:01,400
Speaker 1: be to defend, and the more they'll be able to

791
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:04,799
Speaker 1: open up the playbook for him. You know, I think

792
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:07,360
Speaker 1: Matt can throw us to victory more than the the

793
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 1: the pieces around him have to have to raise their game.

794
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:15,279
Speaker 1: Well obviously, Yeah, that's gonna have to happen to All

795
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:17,720
Speaker 1: these free agents are gonna have to have that second

796
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,759
Speaker 1: year free agent jump. But really it doesn't matter if

797
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:24,440
Speaker 1: Mac hasn't improved, and you know, and I think he will.

798
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:26,600
Speaker 1: That's why I'm excited about that. I made the combat

799
00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 1: on Tuesday. When you keep you know, you keep focusing

800
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 1: on the people said that they were easy to defend.

801
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 1: I think they're easy to defend because their quarterback is right,

802
00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:38,720
Speaker 1: it's a rookie. Yeah, not necessarily. I just think physically

803
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:40,680
Speaker 1: he's limited. There are there are certain things that he

804
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:43,160
Speaker 1: does well. I think it took about half a season

805
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 1: for the lomest of the league to figure that out.

806
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:49,680
Speaker 1: According to Mikearty, who talked to an AFC head office person,

807
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,160
Speaker 1: he's a lot more athletic than people give him credit

808
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:55,640
Speaker 1: for it. Right. And the response to that was someone

809
00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:58,000
Speaker 1: on Twitter snarkly writing that he ran a four two

810
00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 1: one in the office. Just crack me up, guys. Which

811
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,000
Speaker 1: free agent do you guys? If they don't make a

812
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:07,560
Speaker 1: quantum leap in this this second year of their contract,

813
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:10,800
Speaker 1: which free agent do we? Oh? I think a galore

814
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:17,560
Speaker 1: in in Smith, you know, Mills go, yeah, yeah? Those

815
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:20,640
Speaker 1: are those are all good, all good examples. I mean,

816
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:22,200
Speaker 1: like I said, I think you feel a little bit

817
00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:25,360
Speaker 1: heavy on wide receiver, so maybe I think it depends

818
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:28,319
Speaker 1: on on Thornton. And but those guys got injury issues too.

819
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:30,480
Speaker 1: I mean, Parker really stay healthy. But that's a great

820
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:34,880
Speaker 1: one with with Al and Thornton. If Thornton has a

821
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:38,800
Speaker 1: promising rookie year, then absolutely yeah, you could see that happening.

822
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,000
Speaker 1: He only asked a two year contract anyway. It's gonna

823
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:44,919
Speaker 1: be a free agent a year anyway, right, you don't

824
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:46,880
Speaker 1: be signed. Part of me just wants to burn that

825
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:48,759
Speaker 1: off and just let it all kind of play out

826
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:50,799
Speaker 1: instead of feeling like, oh, we're all set at wide

827
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:52,840
Speaker 1: receiver now. Because so let me ask you for it.

828
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:55,719
Speaker 1: Thanks for the christ, appreciate it. Let me ask you

829
00:41:55,719 --> 00:42:00,960
Speaker 1: a question. If Thornton does get a lot of opportunities

830
00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 1: this year, what does that mean about agalore Into or

831
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:08,280
Speaker 1: other receivers. Well, it means something bad. It means something

832
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 1: bad for somebody. I don't know who it is, because

833
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,640
Speaker 1: Mike and I talked on Tuesday that we kind of

834
00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:15,719
Speaker 1: both feel that there's a chance that Aglare might get

835
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:18,440
Speaker 1: more opportunities in the slot. I mean that's where he

836
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,680
Speaker 1: means something bad for Jacoby Myers, right right, I mean,

837
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:23,360
Speaker 1: that's I think it's a good way to tie it

838
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:27,080
Speaker 1: together and again or Agala, That's that's really where he's

839
00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:29,319
Speaker 1: been most productive in his career. You know that Raider

840
00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:32,440
Speaker 1: season was a little bit outlier, but I think Thornton

841
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:34,360
Speaker 1: if I just think it's a really great thing. If

842
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:37,040
Speaker 1: Thornton is able to come in and actually contribute this year,

843
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:39,480
Speaker 1: it's a young guy that you can build with and

844
00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:42,279
Speaker 1: three affordable years left on it is that better? Is

845
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:44,880
Speaker 1: Thornton breaking through and being able to be a contributor

846
00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,399
Speaker 1: this year, better than he just can't break through because

847
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:50,160
Speaker 1: everyone's doing well. Yeah, Um, I would say yeah. I

848
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:55,800
Speaker 1: would say yeah, because is gone and users yere Aglare

849
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,960
Speaker 1: and Myers will be unrestricted free agents. DeVante Parker will

850
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:00,800
Speaker 1: have a year left on his D. But Mike is

851
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 1: right and to say that he should you know, rent

852
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 1: and not buy, you know, at this stage of his career.

853
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:09,200
Speaker 1: So if you have Thornton showing promise and being a

854
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:11,880
Speaker 1: regular contract, I'm not just talking about Well, someone had

855
00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:13,920
Speaker 1: to catch it, you know, Ken Brell Tompkins was the

856
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:17,920
Speaker 1: leading receiver, like in thirteen, someone had to catch the passage. No,

857
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,439
Speaker 1: he's so good. We can't keep him off the field.

858
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:22,680
Speaker 1: We got to get him playing time. That would be

859
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:25,319
Speaker 1: better than we can't get him on the field because

860
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:27,600
Speaker 1: everybody else's playing, especially because if he's on the field,

861
00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:30,319
Speaker 1: he's and he's doing well. He's bringing speed, he's got

862
00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 1: some length on the outside. I mean, those are things

863
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:34,080
Speaker 1: that they need. Is it's Mac, you know, got just

864
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,680
Speaker 1: a sense for him downfield, and he's able to you know,

865
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:39,600
Speaker 1: put it up there and know where he's going to

866
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:41,400
Speaker 1: pull away. So, I mean, I think it just speaks

867
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:43,960
Speaker 1: to the general theme of the team. The more rookies,

868
00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:47,360
Speaker 1: second even third year guys at this point cha that

869
00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:49,600
Speaker 1: can emerge and play well, the better. And I don't

870
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:51,719
Speaker 1: really care about, you know, whether or not it works

871
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:55,520
Speaker 1: out for Devon Godchaw. What what better they get the

872
00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:59,840
Speaker 1: younger and if they cut Devin mccordy, i'd feel love younger.

873
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:01,520
Speaker 1: Why do you always pick the only one? I don't

874
00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:04,480
Speaker 1: really have a huge problem. That's why That's why I

875
00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:07,840
Speaker 1: picked him. Paul, what's up, William? What's up? Fred? How

876
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:11,440
Speaker 1: are you doing good? Hey? Um? I had a question

877
00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 1: for you Mike and Paul of course, Um okay, So

878
00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 1: I heard Greg Bernard podcast basically, so he has predicting

879
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:23,960
Speaker 1: that the Patriots will be about eight and nine were nine,

880
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:27,040
Speaker 1: So wouldn't that wouldn't that be an l forwards? Bill? Basically?

881
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? And it's like, what does

882
00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:32,239
Speaker 1: Robert Kraft do? Did I say say? Like everything just

883
00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:36,840
Speaker 1: it was just a basically it just went went left. Basically,

884
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:38,680
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, nothing went right? The offense

885
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:42,000
Speaker 1: was that, the coaching and all that. So what do

886
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:44,200
Speaker 1: you what do you think Robert Kraft? Well, where do

887
00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:46,080
Speaker 1: you I think we should go next to the nick?

888
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:49,600
Speaker 1: I mean following year or whatever. Yeah, well that's the thing.

889
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:52,880
Speaker 1: You know, again, it's tough to answer without putting it

890
00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:55,640
Speaker 1: in content. But let's say they're eight and nine and

891
00:44:55,760 --> 00:45:00,040
Speaker 1: it's evident they've got talent. I nine, I don't I

892
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:02,319
Speaker 1: think that's evidence that nothing went right. Right. I'll tell

893
00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:04,080
Speaker 1: you that. If they go eight to nine and it's

894
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,680
Speaker 1: evident that they have talent, but they're just not listening,

895
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:11,400
Speaker 1: like Bill's lost the locker room, that's worse than you know,

896
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:14,400
Speaker 1: they still don't have now if what they need to

897
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:16,360
Speaker 1: get over the hump, Like if you think it's like

898
00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:19,319
Speaker 1: a you know, eight to nine and man, I don't

899
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:22,239
Speaker 1: know how that that team won eight games, right, they overachieved,

900
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:25,520
Speaker 1: like exactly, they stole two games down the street. That's

901
00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:28,839
Speaker 1: that's a concern. But if you're looking at it is like, yeah,

902
00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:31,359
Speaker 1: they were in every game they won eight. They will

903
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:35,240
Speaker 1: you know, they're coming on guy like making some catches.

904
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:39,080
Speaker 1: You know, maybe a Kevin Harris is you know, integrating

905
00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:43,160
Speaker 1: in the backfield. Next Bull Strange looks like a keeper

906
00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:45,480
Speaker 1: at left guard. Yeah, you know, we got more money

907
00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:48,839
Speaker 1: to spend next year, we're building. The quarterback made some progress. Right,

908
00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:50,880
Speaker 1: It's just the context is important because you could you

909
00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:52,759
Speaker 1: could you could lay out what happened last year in

910
00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:54,560
Speaker 1: terms of, all right, they're gonna finish with this schedule,

911
00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:56,560
Speaker 1: they're gonna make the play they're back in the playoffs

912
00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:58,520
Speaker 1: with a rookie quarterback, and they're gonna lose the Buffalo

913
00:45:58,520 --> 00:45:59,840
Speaker 1: the first rue. How would you feel And at this

914
00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 1: point last year you would have said, Okay, let's still

915
00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:04,879
Speaker 1: sign up. And yet how it happened and they beat

916
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:06,800
Speaker 1: You're kind of like, you know, the beginning of the

917
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:08,160
Speaker 1: year and the end of the year, they were not

918
00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:11,319
Speaker 1: a very good football team. In the middle they dominated. Yeah,

919
00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:13,440
Speaker 1: I just want to be better than last year that

920
00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:16,120
Speaker 1: saw maybe take another step for you know what I'm saying. Yeah,

921
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:18,880
Speaker 1: And that's what's hard. It's like, but is better, but

922
00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:21,239
Speaker 1: the records worse. I don't make the playoffs, but they

923
00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:23,520
Speaker 1: but you feel better. That's the same place. And if

924
00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:25,880
Speaker 1: you if you, if you're just like writing down player

925
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:28,320
Speaker 1: for player and you're objectively looking at it, they're probably

926
00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:30,240
Speaker 1: not as good as they were last year on paper.

927
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 1: I just don't want I just don't want the team

928
00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:33,799
Speaker 1: to think and the Pagers are just a push over

929
00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:36,200
Speaker 1: all they just eat fin and all that, you know

930
00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:38,160
Speaker 1: what I mean, right, Yeah, that's a bad Let them know,

931
00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:41,000
Speaker 1: like YO were here right right exact, So William, they

932
00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:42,880
Speaker 1: could be what you just said they are and have

933
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:44,960
Speaker 1: a worse record than last year. Yeah, I think you

934
00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:48,279
Speaker 1: know what I mean, that's definitely And it's kind of

935
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:50,879
Speaker 1: how I felt like throw out you know, well Fred

936
00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:53,920
Speaker 1: accurately brought up you know, Hammer and all those crappy

937
00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:55,480
Speaker 1: injured teams in the kind of the middle. But I

938
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,600
Speaker 1: think that like little period between Dallas and Tampa Bay,

939
00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:01,360
Speaker 1: those games, I came out of those games feeling like

940
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:04,359
Speaker 1: this is a competitive game that are gonna be in everything. Yes,

941
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:07,480
Speaker 1: might feel good about it, you know, and then obviously

942
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:09,680
Speaker 1: the season went as it did. I felt I felt

943
00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:11,480
Speaker 1: like that in the Tampa game. I didn't really feel

944
00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:14,240
Speaker 1: that against the Dallas stop. And I know the Dallas

945
00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:17,279
Speaker 1: game went over time and obviously the Patriots more like

946
00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:19,120
Speaker 1: I will say, I will use the words should have.

947
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:22,239
Speaker 1: The Patriots should have won the Dallas game. You know

948
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:24,960
Speaker 1: that you got them third and twenty five well out

949
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:26,640
Speaker 1: of field goal range. You got to find a way

950
00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:29,759
Speaker 1: and you couldn't. And it was unfortunate. But I think

951
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:32,680
Speaker 1: Dallas was so much better than the Patriots that day Tampa.

952
00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:36,160
Speaker 1: The Tampa game was pretty pretty competitive all game long.

953
00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:40,840
Speaker 1: You know, I had a good feeling after the Tampa game. Dallas.

954
00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:45,000
Speaker 1: What to me, Dallas was the two Buffalo games, only

955
00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 1: Buffalo didn't turn the ball over, you know, three times,

956
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,919
Speaker 1: and you know, shoot themselves in the foot constantly. Yeah,

957
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 1: that was the difference. All Right, We're gonna take a break,

1109
00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:13,320
Speaker 1: from the Past with Ernie Adams. Can you think of

1110
00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:17,480
Speaker 1: one thing where that ignition sort of happening to you said, Man,

1111
00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:19,640
Speaker 1: I'm really interested in this or the game of football.

1112
00:57:19,960 --> 00:57:23,040
Speaker 1: Sure it was when I was an eighth eighth grader

1113
00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:27,280
Speaker 1: at Dexter School in Brookline. It was a football was

1114
00:57:27,400 --> 00:57:31,960
Speaker 1: mandatory intramural, so there was no no choice. I want

1115
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:33,880
Speaker 1: to play football. I don't know if you're at Dexter School,

1116
00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:37,320
Speaker 1: You're gonna play football. And I was the athletic director there.

1117
00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:39,960
Speaker 1: George downpat was just a wonderful human being, and I

1118
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:41,680
Speaker 1: had also why don't we do this? Why don't we

1119
00:57:41,760 --> 00:57:44,040
Speaker 1: do that? And he finally said, look, you're so smart.

1120
00:57:44,080 --> 00:57:46,240
Speaker 1: You coach your team. We'll see how you do. And

1121
00:57:46,400 --> 00:57:49,240
Speaker 1: that's where it started. Did you envision at that point

1122
00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:52,920
Speaker 1: in time, was that this is this is a real love? Oh?

1123
00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:55,480
Speaker 1: I knew, Hey, this is this is a lot of fun.

1124
00:57:55,560 --> 00:57:58,520
Speaker 1: And it grew from there. Okay, so you got we're

1125
00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:00,840
Speaker 1: really into it. And then you know, you do your

1126
00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:04,320
Speaker 1: your high school and you meet another guy who's really

1127
00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:06,080
Speaker 1: into it. How long did it take you to realize?

1128
00:58:06,640 --> 00:58:10,640
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick was pretty similar in his thoughts, Um, I'm

1129
00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:14,680
Speaker 1: probably about a minute. Uh so, of course we have.

1130
00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:19,040
Speaker 1: We met fall of nineteen seventy. We were both hi

1131
00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:22,600
Speaker 1: seniors at Phillips Academy in Andover. We uh played on

1132
00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:25,720
Speaker 1: an undefeated football team and we had a great time

1133
00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:30,600
Speaker 1: together and it was It's basically started a fifty plush

1134
00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:38,200
Speaker 1: year conversation about football. That's part of the latest episode

1135
00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:42,080
Speaker 1: of Pats from the Past. Former Patriots research director Ernie

1136
00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:45,160
Speaker 1: Adams was the guest of No Socks Mattie Smith and

1137
00:58:45,240 --> 00:58:48,720
Speaker 1: Paul Perillo bu Hall of Famer and highlights a nearly

1138
00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:54,160
Speaker 1: half century h of his career in the National Football League.

1139
00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:57,560
Speaker 1: You know, I would say it's probably the most extensive

1140
00:58:57,600 --> 00:59:00,520
Speaker 1: interview Ernie Adams has ever done. Yeah, I mean, I'm

1141
00:59:00,560 --> 00:59:04,000
Speaker 1: not outside of the job either, Pink stripes. Yeah, and

1142
00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:06,600
Speaker 1: I will tell you announcement. It could still be going

1143
00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:10,280
Speaker 1: if if we wanted to. I mean, he was having

1144
00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:13,840
Speaker 1: a good time and telling stories, and so he talks

1145
00:59:13,880 --> 00:59:16,240
Speaker 1: about as you know, how his passion for football began.

1146
00:59:16,360 --> 00:59:19,320
Speaker 1: We you know, we just heard that what made what

1147
00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:22,640
Speaker 1: he thought made the mid nineteen seventies Patriots so great?

1148
00:59:23,040 --> 00:59:25,520
Speaker 1: That was that was a really good team. Uh and

1149
00:59:26,080 --> 00:59:29,919
Speaker 1: what was his Patriots favorite Patriots team of all the ones?

1150
00:59:30,040 --> 00:59:31,800
Speaker 1: So I did a little write up that's up down

1151
00:59:31,840 --> 00:59:34,040
Speaker 1: the site now too, with just a five of my

1152
00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:37,400
Speaker 1: favorite little anecdote moments. But yeah, a lot on the

1153
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:40,480
Speaker 1: seventy six and the seventy eight Patriots liked. Paul I

1154
00:59:40,520 --> 00:59:43,240
Speaker 1: think asked him which of the two would you choose?

1155
00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:46,320
Speaker 1: And he wanted seventy eight, which you agreed with. You

1156
00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:48,320
Speaker 1: agreed with the seventy six team went farther. That was

1157
00:59:48,400 --> 00:59:51,160
Speaker 1: the sugar Bear Animal. So we're giving out spoilers. Oh yes, sorry,

1158
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:55,120
Speaker 1: Oh well, he writes these write ups. I always think

1159
00:59:55,160 --> 00:59:58,080
Speaker 1: that why would anybody watch everybody? Well a little bit,

1160
00:59:58,160 --> 01:00:00,800
Speaker 1: there's a lot. Both of those teams went the same.

1161
01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:02,560
Speaker 1: By the way, they both got knocked out in their

1162
01:00:02,560 --> 01:00:06,520
Speaker 1: first playoff game. Um, I would say the seventy eight team,

1163
01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:10,640
Speaker 1: um was more experienced. That's why I think they were

1164
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:13,240
Speaker 1: sort of just they were sort of just on the come,

1165
01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:16,040
Speaker 1: as I like to say, in seventy six, and then

1166
01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:17,760
Speaker 1: by the time they got to seventy eight, I think

1167
01:00:17,760 --> 01:00:20,000
Speaker 1: they were really ready to do some damage. But the

1168
01:00:20,080 --> 01:00:22,480
Speaker 1: Past from the Past podcast is already a whole bunch

1169
01:00:22,520 --> 01:00:24,960
Speaker 1: of them there, so you can subscribe to that and

1170
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:30,400
Speaker 1: listen to many many Expatriots make those available on the Plus. Yeah,

1171
01:00:30,680 --> 01:00:33,920
Speaker 1: there you go extensive interviews with them, and from now on,

1172
01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:37,240
Speaker 1: Paul's going to be part of that. Yeah. I think

1173
01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:40,080
Speaker 1: it's great. You know, they finally have wished his arm.

1174
01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:41,760
Speaker 1: He didn't want to do it. I'm enjoying it. And

1175
01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:44,120
Speaker 1: then and then he realized, I'm glad you guys made

1176
01:00:44,120 --> 01:00:47,320
Speaker 1: me do good I should be part of it, and

1177
01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:49,040
Speaker 1: so now he's going to be part of it. Yeah,

1178
01:00:49,360 --> 01:00:51,840
Speaker 1: it's good. Are we letting anybody else up? Again? I

1179
01:00:51,960 --> 01:00:54,640
Speaker 1: leave that. I leave that to I just show up.

1180
01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:56,600
Speaker 1: They just call you in. They need the arm. But

1181
01:00:56,760 --> 01:00:59,720
Speaker 1: I have enjoyed the two podcasts that I've been a

1182
01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:02,600
Speaker 1: part of. What about Fred talking about plus ups? What

1183
01:01:02,680 --> 01:01:07,200
Speaker 1: about um? Access to player commentaries from games from the season.

1184
01:01:07,320 --> 01:01:09,640
Speaker 1: So after the season, maybe we sit down with Matthew

1185
01:01:09,720 --> 01:01:11,520
Speaker 1: jude On and we watched his three sack game and

1186
01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:13,760
Speaker 1: you know, kind of like we did with Butler. But

1187
01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:17,520
Speaker 1: that's something like that little extra yea access to the

1188
01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:21,919
Speaker 1: unique stuffy commentary. Yeah, I just think anything that gives

1189
01:01:21,920 --> 01:01:23,880
Speaker 1: you do you mean Mitchell Mitchell? Did I w I

1190
01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:27,080
Speaker 1: say Malcolm Butler? Yeah, it's a lot of Malcolm's out there,

1191
01:01:27,480 --> 01:01:33,200
Speaker 1: get them wrong. We're in the middle. Welcome in the middle. Yep. Um. Yeah,

1192
01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:36,200
Speaker 1: So that's something we threw out in the first segment.

1193
01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:41,160
Speaker 1: What would you what content aside from games? What content

1194
01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:43,160
Speaker 1: would you be willing to pay for, either at the

1195
01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:46,360
Speaker 1: league level or at the team level. I bet you

1196
01:01:46,400 --> 01:01:48,280
Speaker 1: people will pay for the Belichick breakdowns. We give them

1197
01:01:48,280 --> 01:01:50,200
Speaker 1: away for free. But I think people would. I don't

1198
01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:54,000
Speaker 1: think they don't do. I'm not like I hate to

1199
01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:57,120
Speaker 1: say that. No disrespect to the greatest coach of all time,

1200
01:01:57,160 --> 01:02:00,840
Speaker 1: but you know, judging from just the engagement we get

1201
01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:02,880
Speaker 1: from the free, you know, putting it up free, I

1202
01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:06,000
Speaker 1: don't think so. Yeah. Sometimes when you charge it, charge

1203
01:02:06,040 --> 01:02:08,360
Speaker 1: for it, people think it's better than this. That's true.

1204
01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:12,040
Speaker 1: You create the value. Yeah, yeah, that is a thing. Yeah,

1205
01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:15,200
Speaker 1: perceived value. People say. You know, if it's free, it's

1206
01:02:15,200 --> 01:02:16,880
Speaker 1: not worth it, then wouldn't be giving it away if

1207
01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:21,439
Speaker 1: it was any good? Right? Who knows? Interesting? Um Joe

1208
01:02:21,560 --> 01:02:24,880
Speaker 1: writes in I was listening to Andrew Callahan's podcast the

1209
01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:28,280
Speaker 1: other day and he mentioned how stacked the Patriots beat is.

1210
01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:31,560
Speaker 1: He named people like Evan Lazarre, Phil Perry, and et cetera.

1211
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:35,080
Speaker 1: He didn't mention anyone from PU, but I figured it

1212
01:02:35,160 --> 01:02:37,600
Speaker 1: was because you were on a different tier. So there

1213
01:02:37,640 --> 01:02:42,240
Speaker 1: you go. I figure it's for different reasons. They hate us,

1214
01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:45,040
Speaker 1: that's my fault. They just hate Paul. Yes, why do

1215
01:02:45,160 --> 01:02:47,200
Speaker 1: they don't? No one hates Mike. What does sing out

1216
01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:50,520
Speaker 1: with that guy? Uh? No? I like, I like, I

1217
01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:52,600
Speaker 1: think he does a decent job. Yeah, I don't. I don't.

1218
01:02:52,920 --> 01:02:56,080
Speaker 1: I mean, he's the one that kind of runs the beat. Now, um, yeah,

1219
01:02:56,080 --> 01:02:57,800
Speaker 1: I didn't. He didn't include us last year though, when

1220
01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:01,400
Speaker 1: the Good Guy Award, which which usually in the past

1221
01:03:01,480 --> 01:03:03,680
Speaker 1: we had been included in. So I don't know, I

1222
01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:06,040
Speaker 1: get on fine with him. My I mean, Paul and

1223
01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:07,640
Speaker 1: I were talking about though, well, you know how like

1224
01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:10,400
Speaker 1: a president, you know, picks their vice president based on

1225
01:03:10,480 --> 01:03:12,840
Speaker 1: who can we bring in to you know, get the

1226
01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:15,400
Speaker 1: ex vote. You know, yeah, I brought in Mike to

1227
01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:18,280
Speaker 1: get the you know, the blogger the blogger vote. Yeah,

1228
01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:20,280
Speaker 1: you got some blogger rep. But but Paul and I

1229
01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:23,400
Speaker 1: were talking about it hasn't worked. Just just you know,

1230
01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:25,440
Speaker 1: they all kind of sit together, and I, you know,

1231
01:03:25,520 --> 01:03:28,240
Speaker 1: I do practices with those guys. I get along with everybody.

1232
01:03:28,280 --> 01:03:30,280
Speaker 1: But I just think that there's an element of group

1233
01:03:30,320 --> 01:03:31,960
Speaker 1: think when you're all sitting together and you're all talking

1234
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:34,360
Speaker 1: about stats and you're all calling each other's attention and stuff. Now,

1235
01:03:34,600 --> 01:03:36,400
Speaker 1: granted I'm sitting with Paul and Andy. You know who

1236
01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:39,760
Speaker 1: purports to that theory is Mike Reece. He does his

1237
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:41,640
Speaker 1: own thing. He doesn't want to care. And I mean,

1238
01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:44,240
Speaker 1: I'm skewed shirt sitting with Paul and Andy and and

1239
01:03:44,360 --> 01:03:46,520
Speaker 1: you know, there's some side joking conversations going on. But

1240
01:03:47,080 --> 01:03:49,080
Speaker 1: I just like having that separate perspective. And then I

1241
01:03:49,160 --> 01:03:51,640
Speaker 1: like being able to go to Twitter and you know, say,

1242
01:03:51,640 --> 01:03:54,439
Speaker 1: all right, did I miss anything? What did they all see?

1243
01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:56,320
Speaker 1: What are they all talking about? Because a lot of

1244
01:03:56,360 --> 01:03:58,800
Speaker 1: times they come out of practice and everybody's got the

1245
01:03:58,960 --> 01:04:02,040
Speaker 1: same kind of take the same numbers, the same things

1246
01:04:02,120 --> 01:04:04,080
Speaker 1: that stood out, And you know, I just think it

1247
01:04:04,240 --> 01:04:06,520
Speaker 1: provides more value if you're you know, trying to be

1248
01:04:07,120 --> 01:04:09,560
Speaker 1: neutral and not be influenced by the people sitting around

1249
01:04:09,600 --> 01:04:10,960
Speaker 1: you being like, oh look at that play look, oh

1250
01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:13,040
Speaker 1: look at you know. That is the main reason I know,

1251
01:04:13,120 --> 01:04:14,640
Speaker 1: I like to play up the fact that I don't

1252
01:04:14,680 --> 01:04:16,560
Speaker 1: really like any of them. And that's what because I don't.

1253
01:04:16,640 --> 01:04:19,160
Speaker 1: I have no problems with very virtually any of them

1254
01:04:19,560 --> 01:04:22,439
Speaker 1: on a personal basis. And I think Andrew's a nice

1255
01:04:22,560 --> 01:04:25,840
Speaker 1: a nice kid. But that's why I like to sit

1256
01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:28,040
Speaker 1: by myself. In general, I sit with Mike. I'll sit

1257
01:04:28,080 --> 01:04:32,640
Speaker 1: with Andy, Mike Giardi, um, Mike Reese. I'll always try

1258
01:04:32,640 --> 01:04:34,680
Speaker 1: to Mike's always floating around like Fred, but I always

1259
01:04:34,680 --> 01:04:36,400
Speaker 1: try to go over to Mike Reese at some point,

1260
01:04:36,920 --> 01:04:38,640
Speaker 1: you know, just a sort of touch base. He does

1261
01:04:38,680 --> 01:04:41,080
Speaker 1: the same thing every every practice. He comes up to

1262
01:04:41,200 --> 01:04:44,120
Speaker 1: me after practice. Yeah what I miss? What I miss?

1263
01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:46,720
Speaker 1: You know, like and you know that kind of stuff.

1264
01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:50,360
Speaker 1: It's always good to have some communication. But Mike is right,

1265
01:04:50,440 --> 01:04:53,280
Speaker 1: like when you read ten different beat writers and they

1266
01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:56,520
Speaker 1: all have the same exact impression, that's not genuine. Yeah,

1267
01:04:56,760 --> 01:04:58,960
Speaker 1: And Mike, even during you know, when we used to

1268
01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:01,439
Speaker 1: have locker room AX, he would even do the same

1269
01:05:01,680 --> 01:05:04,720
Speaker 1: strategy there, you know, wherever the scrum was, he goes

1270
01:05:04,800 --> 01:05:06,720
Speaker 1: somewhere else and talk to the guy that no one's

1271
01:05:06,760 --> 01:05:09,600
Speaker 1: talking to. Yeah, you know, now part of that the

1272
01:05:10,080 --> 01:05:13,360
Speaker 1: locker room thing is what you're doing. Yeah, Like you

1273
01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:17,920
Speaker 1: have a luxury if you're not necessarily beholden to the

1274
01:05:18,040 --> 01:05:21,240
Speaker 1: story of the day, right, So you don't need that. Yeah,

1275
01:05:21,840 --> 01:05:26,240
Speaker 1: you know, if you know everybody's talking to one guy

1276
01:05:27,040 --> 01:05:29,480
Speaker 1: just because that's the guy that's available, then you don't

1277
01:05:29,480 --> 01:05:33,160
Speaker 1: need that. But if like I always use the Ted

1278
01:05:33,240 --> 01:05:36,400
Speaker 1: Johnson example when Ted Johnson would a wall when he

1279
01:05:36,440 --> 01:05:37,920
Speaker 1: found out that he was going to be inactive for

1280
01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:41,240
Speaker 1: the opener, that's the story, Like, you need to talk

1281
01:05:41,240 --> 01:05:43,479
Speaker 1: to Ted john Like, you can't be wandering around talking

1282
01:05:43,520 --> 01:05:46,560
Speaker 1: to a practice squad guy and not get ted Johnson's

1283
01:05:46,600 --> 01:05:48,640
Speaker 1: reaction that Nay, that was the story of that day.

1284
01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:51,200
Speaker 1: So sometimes if you're the beat guy, you can't afford

1285
01:05:51,240 --> 01:05:54,480
Speaker 1: to miss the story. True, but the logic, I mean,

1286
01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:57,640
Speaker 1: I would wholeheartedly disagree with that. The the beat is

1287
01:05:57,680 --> 01:06:00,680
Speaker 1: stacked by the way, like I mean, Fred will tell you,

1288
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:03,240
Speaker 1: like the caliber of guys that you know used to

1289
01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:05,560
Speaker 1: be back in the day, I mean Will McDonough and

1290
01:06:05,840 --> 01:06:09,480
Speaker 1: ron Borges, Kevin Mannox, Yeah, you know Ronnie Hobson, Like

1291
01:06:09,880 --> 01:06:11,680
Speaker 1: whatever you think of Borges, he was a good writer.

1292
01:06:12,040 --> 01:06:14,280
Speaker 1: He was a good reporter too, Like yeah, you know

1293
01:06:14,400 --> 01:06:17,360
Speaker 1: did he did he have biases? Yeah, just like they

1294
01:06:17,440 --> 01:06:21,000
Speaker 1: do now, only they're different, right, Borgeses were negative. These

1295
01:06:21,080 --> 01:06:24,160
Speaker 1: guys are positive, right, But there's definitely a bias. Yeah,

1296
01:06:24,480 --> 01:06:26,520
Speaker 1: there's probably only two people that I seek out to

1297
01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:29,720
Speaker 1: actually read what they write about the Patriots, And I

1298
01:06:29,760 --> 01:06:31,920
Speaker 1: think he's going to get the same two that I do. Yeah, No,

1299
01:06:32,160 --> 01:06:35,760
Speaker 1: probably different, it's going to be different, But I Bedardenalos

1300
01:06:35,760 --> 01:06:39,120
Speaker 1: are those are the two I expect? Yeah? Really it

1301
01:06:39,240 --> 01:06:43,040
Speaker 1: went over to ye see for me, No, for me,

1302
01:06:43,160 --> 01:06:46,200
Speaker 1: it's recent current. Oh yeah, but current is not really

1303
01:06:46,360 --> 01:06:48,720
Speaker 1: like the beak. No, but Current doesn't have to do that.

1304
01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:52,080
Speaker 1: Get my facts from Mike, Yeah, and then my opinion

1305
01:06:52,240 --> 01:06:54,040
Speaker 1: from time. I would agree with you, Fred. I think

1306
01:06:54,080 --> 01:06:55,360
Speaker 1: that's a good way to go about it. If you

1307
01:06:55,480 --> 01:06:57,960
Speaker 1: if you don't have time to read what everybody's writing. Yeah,

1308
01:06:58,040 --> 01:07:00,480
Speaker 1: those are two guys to go to. I'm not interested

1309
01:07:00,520 --> 01:07:02,880
Speaker 1: in is like, uh, you know who was at the

1310
01:07:02,960 --> 01:07:06,280
Speaker 1: three technique and you know, playing the inside shade like

1311
01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:09,960
Speaker 1: I I mean, I leave that to scouts. Yeah, and

1312
01:07:10,240 --> 01:07:13,120
Speaker 1: those those two guys, that's what that's where they are.

1313
01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:16,680
Speaker 1: They think they're scouts. Yeah, I like it. That's fine,

1314
01:07:16,760 --> 01:07:20,280
Speaker 1: that's good. There's the audience though everybody has the room. Absolutely.

1315
01:07:20,280 --> 01:07:22,160
Speaker 1: I wouldn't never make fun of anybody that wants to

1316
01:07:22,240 --> 01:07:24,480
Speaker 1: know more about football and thinks those guys do. Yeah,

1317
01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:26,600
Speaker 1: I mean, and I didn't mean that in any I

1318
01:07:26,640 --> 01:07:28,840
Speaker 1: don't even count Reese as I mean, I just think

1319
01:07:28,880 --> 01:07:31,080
Speaker 1: he is just like kind of the stable runner of

1320
01:07:31,160 --> 01:07:33,600
Speaker 1: the ship. That of course he's telling you what's happening.

1321
01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:36,000
Speaker 1: You have to read them. You have to read them.

1322
01:07:36,040 --> 01:07:37,640
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I'm not I didn't mean to

1323
01:07:37,680 --> 01:07:39,280
Speaker 1: imply that Oh, I don't read. I mean that just

1324
01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:41,400
Speaker 1: is like a given to me. And the same thing

1325
01:07:41,440 --> 01:07:42,760
Speaker 1: with Current though, but I think I agree with how

1326
01:07:42,760 --> 01:07:44,680
Speaker 1: you said it. Current's a little bit on the outside

1327
01:07:44,720 --> 01:07:47,000
Speaker 1: and he'll come out you know some I what I

1328
01:07:47,040 --> 01:07:48,920
Speaker 1: like about Current. You never know what you're gonna get. Like,

1329
01:07:49,000 --> 01:07:51,840
Speaker 1: I think he has really strong opinions one way or

1330
01:07:51,880 --> 01:07:54,720
Speaker 1: the other. Something sometimes I do I want to know

1331
01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:59,480
Speaker 1: gives the team, not the play. I can see the

1332
01:07:59,480 --> 01:08:02,240
Speaker 1: play myself, he like. I can watch the games on

1333
01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:04,840
Speaker 1: Sundays and I can watch the practices at training GAMP,

1334
01:08:05,560 --> 01:08:08,520
Speaker 1: and I'm comfortable that what I see and what I

1335
01:08:08,680 --> 01:08:11,960
Speaker 1: think I'm comfortable with. I don't need someone else's opinion

1336
01:08:12,080 --> 01:08:15,560
Speaker 1: on again. Yeah, who won the one on one battle

1337
01:08:15,600 --> 01:08:20,479
Speaker 1: between you know and Andrews? Right right? I can watch

1338
01:08:20,560 --> 01:08:23,840
Speaker 1: that myself. Yeah. But what I don't know sometimes is

1339
01:08:23,880 --> 01:08:28,240
Speaker 1: when Tom Carmon will say that this was something I

1340
01:08:28,360 --> 01:08:30,320
Speaker 1: read from him during the course of the winter that

1341
01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:33,160
Speaker 1: one of the things about the defensive coordinator was that

1342
01:08:33,800 --> 01:08:36,439
Speaker 1: Steve does a lot of the defensive coordinator Steve Belichick

1343
01:08:36,520 --> 01:08:39,439
Speaker 1: does a lot of the defensive coordinator duties, but wasn't

1344
01:08:39,479 --> 01:08:42,000
Speaker 1: as comfortable speaking in front of the team to deliver

1345
01:08:42,120 --> 01:08:44,439
Speaker 1: the game plan, and that's what Gerard Mayo would come

1346
01:08:44,479 --> 01:08:47,840
Speaker 1: in because he was more comfortable in that environment. I

1347
01:08:48,160 --> 01:08:50,760
Speaker 1: can't I don't know that. I can't see that, right,

1348
01:08:50,960 --> 01:08:55,160
Speaker 1: I can't experience that he's giving me something. Yeah, well,

1349
01:08:55,280 --> 01:08:57,240
Speaker 1: I mean the other the other guys have given you,

1350
01:08:57,520 --> 01:09:00,840
Speaker 1: like you know, who's the third third stringthree technique? Yeah,

1351
01:09:01,120 --> 01:09:06,360
Speaker 1: that's not reporting. Yeah yeah, well, Uman, Mike, I'm trying

1352
01:09:06,360 --> 01:09:08,880
Speaker 1: to remember who said it. One of the linebackers said it, though,

1353
01:09:09,360 --> 01:09:13,479
Speaker 1: might have been McMillan talking about Steven Gerard and the

1354
01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:16,040
Speaker 1: way he describes Steve was the guy in the back

1355
01:09:16,080 --> 01:09:17,920
Speaker 1: of the room who would chime in with things. So

1356
01:09:18,080 --> 01:09:23,240
Speaker 1: I mean it kind of that's not that's not And

1357
01:09:23,240 --> 01:09:24,800
Speaker 1: I also think it makes you know, it just makes

1358
01:09:24,800 --> 01:09:26,840
Speaker 1: sense with who Garrod Mayo was. He was captain of

1359
01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:29,080
Speaker 1: a defense, he's a linebacker, he's called plays. I mean,

1360
01:09:29,120 --> 01:09:33,800
Speaker 1: I think that that goes a long way towards you know, accountability. So, um,

1361
01:09:34,080 --> 01:09:38,479
Speaker 1: you know, interesting, it is interesting. Um. Joe has a question.

1362
01:09:38,600 --> 01:09:41,760
Speaker 1: He says, of all the drafts the Patriots have had,

1363
01:09:42,280 --> 01:09:45,479
Speaker 1: which draft before the season started were you were not

1364
01:09:45,640 --> 01:09:48,840
Speaker 1: a fan of? Is it this season's draft. Who's asking

1365
01:09:48,960 --> 01:09:51,720
Speaker 1: this question? Um, this is the same person who um

1366
01:09:52,600 --> 01:09:55,800
Speaker 1: want to you know, said that it was a stack beat,

1367
01:09:55,880 --> 01:10:01,040
Speaker 1: right according to Andrew draft to Yeah right, yeah, that's

1368
01:10:01,040 --> 01:10:03,200
Speaker 1: exactly what I was thinking. Is that the one that's yeah,

1369
01:10:03,439 --> 01:10:07,280
Speaker 1: Harry and yeah Harry. Yeah, Well, you know, does it

1370
01:10:07,400 --> 01:10:11,000
Speaker 1: count with Pete Carroll? Sure? Because I remember at the

1371
01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:12,720
Speaker 1: time like that was a bad draft. It was like

1372
01:10:12,800 --> 01:10:18,919
Speaker 1: Chris Christy, you know, I like, you know, that was Belichick.

1373
01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:21,600
Speaker 1: That was Why do I keep thinking he was? That

1374
01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:26,120
Speaker 1: was Carroll Belichick's first draft pick. It was like twenty seventeen,

1375
01:10:26,160 --> 01:10:28,200
Speaker 1: they only took like four guys total, like in the

1376
01:10:28,240 --> 01:10:30,560
Speaker 1: whole draft. That was one of those two. Yeah it

1377
01:10:30,720 --> 01:10:34,920
Speaker 1: was Tony Was it in Tonio Garcia? Yeah? Yeah, maybe

1378
01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:39,640
Speaker 1: wise maybe it was in that group. Perhaps I Forgetio

1379
01:10:39,760 --> 01:10:41,599
Speaker 1: was a way we could look these through my computer

1380
01:10:41,720 --> 01:10:45,040
Speaker 1: down for this, But yeah, there's definitely been Uh. I mean,

1381
01:10:45,080 --> 01:10:51,519
Speaker 1: I think last year's twenty twenty with with mac that

1382
01:10:51,720 --> 01:10:54,559
Speaker 1: was like boom boom one two, that's gonna that's gonna

1383
01:10:54,600 --> 01:10:57,040
Speaker 1: be okay. It looks like, you know, three guys that

1384
01:10:57,160 --> 01:11:00,360
Speaker 1: out of the top four picks that contributed significantly. Yeah,

1385
01:11:00,720 --> 01:11:04,000
Speaker 1: I'm hoping things that happened this year make two years

1386
01:11:04,040 --> 01:11:07,000
Speaker 1: ago a better draft, you know. Yeah, I mean I

1387
01:11:07,080 --> 01:11:08,920
Speaker 1: think that's on the table. That's a big part of it.

1388
01:11:09,040 --> 01:11:11,680
Speaker 1: You know our Za or Keen are they gonna are

1389
01:11:11,720 --> 01:11:15,840
Speaker 1: they gonna do anything? And then Ronnie Perkins, Perkins, well

1390
01:11:16,080 --> 01:11:19,360
Speaker 1: those guys this year, those guys are drafted last year?

1391
01:11:19,680 --> 01:11:22,599
Speaker 1: Oh where they Yeah? Yeah, but they're all the same

1392
01:11:22,640 --> 01:11:26,599
Speaker 1: thick I think. I mean the twenty nineteen drafts kind

1393
01:11:26,640 --> 01:11:29,360
Speaker 1: of gone. But I mean at twenty twenty, twenty twenty one,

1394
01:11:29,400 --> 01:11:31,439
Speaker 1: I think all those guys, you know, any of those

1395
01:11:31,520 --> 01:11:35,040
Speaker 1: that twenty was the one that I think Fred's looking at. Dougga,

1396
01:11:35,360 --> 01:11:38,200
Speaker 1: maybe Cher is a better player than you're shown so far.

1397
01:11:38,439 --> 01:11:40,760
Speaker 1: Maybe you could look at that differently. But yeah, I

1398
01:11:40,800 --> 01:11:43,000
Speaker 1: mean I don't know. I think he's a think that

1399
01:11:43,240 --> 01:11:45,640
Speaker 1: that looks like a shaky draft to me. Dougger does it?

1400
01:11:45,760 --> 01:11:48,200
Speaker 1: Does you know? It has been solid? I like Dugger.

1401
01:11:48,320 --> 01:11:50,920
Speaker 1: I like Dugger, I think more than most, which is

1402
01:11:51,040 --> 01:11:53,639
Speaker 1: very rare for me to be higher on a Patriots

1403
01:11:53,720 --> 01:11:55,880
Speaker 1: player than a lot of our listeners. Yeah, I just

1404
01:11:55,920 --> 01:11:57,960
Speaker 1: love to see him hit the next level this year.

1405
01:11:58,040 --> 01:11:59,600
Speaker 1: And I mean I think he started to find the

1406
01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:01,360
Speaker 1: ball last year a little bit more. It seemed like

1407
01:12:01,400 --> 01:12:03,439
Speaker 1: he'd be starting to get a little more comfortable in

1408
01:12:03,520 --> 01:12:06,080
Speaker 1: coverage and stuff. What's the ceiling? How much you know?

1409
01:12:06,280 --> 01:12:08,280
Speaker 1: Is he a true I think you can work all

1410
01:12:08,680 --> 01:12:10,839
Speaker 1: all the way up to the manager of the department,

1411
01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:16,400
Speaker 1: and then wasn't paying attention. That's when the big bucks

1412
01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:19,320
Speaker 1: start rolling in. Um, we were talking about that reporter

1413
01:12:19,439 --> 01:12:21,599
Speaker 1: in San Francisco that had the beef with the player

1414
01:12:22,280 --> 01:12:27,519
Speaker 1: UM Grant Sean and Petaluma writes in that I've seen it.

1415
01:12:29,160 --> 01:12:32,519
Speaker 1: It's in the Bay Area on a roadside. He says,

1416
01:12:32,640 --> 01:12:35,680
Speaker 1: just an FYI, everyone hates Grant Cone. Oh really that's

1417
01:12:35,720 --> 01:12:39,040
Speaker 1: the guy. Players, other reporters, fans, everyone see. That's why

1418
01:12:39,439 --> 01:12:42,240
Speaker 1: this is where I was getting. Yeah, he's a smug, smarmie,

1419
01:12:42,360 --> 01:12:45,519
Speaker 1: self serving little tool. His daddy was a Niners beat

1420
01:12:45,560 --> 01:12:48,680
Speaker 1: guy who got him the job. His daddy, kin Law

1421
01:12:48,880 --> 01:12:52,240
Speaker 1: was only expressing what everyone feels about the guy. It's

1422
01:12:52,280 --> 01:12:55,400
Speaker 1: a surprise something like that hasn't happened sooner with him.

1423
01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:58,479
Speaker 1: Who Yeah, I don't know what the details are, but

1424
01:12:58,680 --> 01:13:02,200
Speaker 1: I you hears something like that and immediately seems like

1425
01:13:02,320 --> 01:13:06,920
Speaker 1: it's all one side you all. I always think to myself,

1426
01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:10,800
Speaker 1: that's not what it is. There's another side to that

1427
01:13:10,920 --> 01:13:13,479
Speaker 1: story that we don't know, and that's probably part of it.

1428
01:13:14,240 --> 01:13:16,040
Speaker 1: Had there been other beat writer, I mean, I'm assuming

1429
01:13:16,080 --> 01:13:18,160
Speaker 1: maybe Felger walked that line a little bit of guys

1430
01:13:18,200 --> 01:13:19,920
Speaker 1: that maybe we'll get unto the player's skin a little bit.

1431
01:13:19,920 --> 01:13:21,720
Speaker 1: It doesn't seem like there's anybody really on the beat

1432
01:13:21,800 --> 01:13:24,760
Speaker 1: right now. When Felger was a beat writer, he was

1433
01:13:24,840 --> 01:13:28,080
Speaker 1: he was, he was on board, like he was totally different. Yeah,

1434
01:13:28,120 --> 01:13:31,040
Speaker 1: he was totally different. He played the game, right, he

1435
01:13:31,120 --> 01:13:33,479
Speaker 1: played the game. Oh yeah, he was Like I said,

1436
01:13:33,560 --> 01:13:36,920
Speaker 1: I was at the fortieth anniversary for Robert Kraft Admira

1437
01:13:37,120 --> 01:13:39,760
Speaker 1: and at my table was Felger and Scott Pioli. He

1438
01:13:39,960 --> 01:13:42,040
Speaker 1: was so in the pocket of the of the team.

1439
01:13:43,320 --> 01:13:46,080
Speaker 1: How many other beat writers were there, I don't remember

1440
01:13:46,160 --> 01:13:48,639
Speaker 1: any Yeah, there's a different reason why he was there,

1441
01:13:48,720 --> 01:13:53,320
Speaker 1: but I'll save that for anyway. But there's nobody like

1442
01:13:53,439 --> 01:13:55,880
Speaker 1: that right now. I feel like that, like, oh they

1443
01:13:55,960 --> 01:13:58,800
Speaker 1: hate him, like questions. I mean, I think I think

1444
01:13:58,840 --> 01:14:01,000
Speaker 1: there's people they don't like. Yeah, I mean I think

1445
01:14:01,160 --> 01:14:05,640
Speaker 1: you know people that they don't I'm sure Tommy probably has.

1446
01:14:06,240 --> 01:14:07,760
Speaker 1: I mean, but I think he does it in a

1447
01:14:07,880 --> 01:14:11,839
Speaker 1: way that is I gotta ask this. Yeah, yeah, he's

1448
01:14:11,920 --> 01:14:14,400
Speaker 1: he's good about it. But I mean those guys tended

1449
01:14:14,439 --> 01:14:16,320
Speaker 1: to put there are guys that could under bill skin,

1450
01:14:17,200 --> 01:14:21,280
Speaker 1: to be sure, and there's one that you would never expect. Yep, yep,

1451
01:14:22,560 --> 01:14:26,639
Speaker 1: all right, five five five hundred. Web radio is the email.

1452
01:14:27,200 --> 01:14:30,680
Speaker 1: Let's go to Sean and Vancouver. Who's been holding on? Hey,

1453
01:14:30,760 --> 01:14:38,040
Speaker 1: Sean hero Paul observation. I saw that you said that

1454
01:14:38,280 --> 01:14:41,960
Speaker 1: time Montgomery spent time I practiced as a receiver. Do

1455
01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:44,760
Speaker 1: you see him trying or you see the Patriots trying

1456
01:14:44,800 --> 01:14:49,080
Speaker 1: them a spot at all in the slot? Um? Yeah,

1457
01:14:49,120 --> 01:14:52,600
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think so. I mean, yeah, I

1458
01:14:52,640 --> 01:14:56,400
Speaker 1: mean Canny Canny operate out of the slot. Yeah, he's

1459
01:14:56,479 --> 01:14:59,200
Speaker 1: not a not a huge guy, and he's probably quicker

1460
01:14:59,240 --> 01:15:02,000
Speaker 1: than fast. Yeah. I mean, I think I wouldn't rule

1461
01:15:02,040 --> 01:15:05,559
Speaker 1: it out. But I just think that people are searching

1462
01:15:05,640 --> 01:15:09,960
Speaker 1: for like the unicorn again, like they're they're searching searching

1463
01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:14,360
Speaker 1: for Edelman Ker, you know, And I don't know, I

1464
01:15:14,680 --> 01:15:16,840
Speaker 1: just doubt. I mean, I don't know. I feel like

1465
01:15:16,920 --> 01:15:18,840
Speaker 1: I think the odds are against that. I feel like

1466
01:15:18,920 --> 01:15:21,360
Speaker 1: he's just kind of on the injury bench, and then

1467
01:15:21,439 --> 01:15:24,400
Speaker 1: like if James White can't go with Jacobe Meyers or like,

1468
01:15:24,600 --> 01:15:28,280
Speaker 1: depending on which position gets dinged, that's where they'll kind

1469
01:15:28,320 --> 01:15:30,160
Speaker 1: of move him to. I kind of look at him

1470
01:15:30,640 --> 01:15:33,559
Speaker 1: as the Brandon Bolden replacement, and I think that maybe

1471
01:15:33,640 --> 01:15:36,800
Speaker 1: he has a higher end on offense, despite the fact

1472
01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:38,880
Speaker 1: that I thought Bolden had a pretty solid year last

1473
01:15:38,960 --> 01:15:41,479
Speaker 1: year filling in. I think they look at him as

1474
01:15:41,520 --> 01:15:44,000
Speaker 1: a guy who will be a core for special teamer, perfect,

1475
01:15:44,160 --> 01:15:46,320
Speaker 1: who can play out of the backfield, who can catch

1476
01:15:46,360 --> 01:15:49,599
Speaker 1: passes and do different things. Yea, if we're in a pinch,

1477
01:15:49,680 --> 01:15:51,040
Speaker 1: we can put him here for you know, we could

1478
01:15:51,040 --> 01:15:53,800
Speaker 1: boom over there if we need to. You know, I'm

1479
01:15:53,800 --> 01:15:55,920
Speaker 1: not going to dismiss his chances to be able to

1480
01:15:56,360 --> 01:15:57,800
Speaker 1: play in the slot. I think he could do that.

1481
01:15:57,920 --> 01:15:59,560
Speaker 1: I think that's when we when we saw him the

1482
01:15:59,640 --> 01:16:02,679
Speaker 1: other day, he was kind of running from the slot

1483
01:16:02,760 --> 01:16:04,720
Speaker 1: more more often than not. Right, I thought you meant

1484
01:16:04,760 --> 01:16:07,960
Speaker 1: his media availability, Yeah, oh yeah. Mike wasn't high on

1485
01:16:08,040 --> 01:16:11,439
Speaker 1: the Wison. I always saw him as someone who's like

1486
01:16:11,760 --> 01:16:14,080
Speaker 1: good at a lot of things, but never great at anything.

1487
01:16:14,160 --> 01:16:16,880
Speaker 1: But last year he really built himself into that white role.

1488
01:16:17,320 --> 01:16:19,519
Speaker 1: You know, eventually was like shake key to start, but

1489
01:16:19,600 --> 01:16:21,639
Speaker 1: then he was pretty decent, And I would agree that's

1490
01:16:21,720 --> 01:16:23,920
Speaker 1: that's that's how I think of Time Montgomery. I think

1491
01:16:24,000 --> 01:16:26,600
Speaker 1: because he can play running back in wide receiver, I

1492
01:16:26,680 --> 01:16:28,880
Speaker 1: think people think more of him, like, oh, there's this

1493
01:16:29,040 --> 01:16:31,560
Speaker 1: eighty something guy who lines up in the backfield. But

1494
01:16:31,760 --> 01:16:34,559
Speaker 1: but you know, because he wasn't a good enough wide receiver, yeah,

1495
01:16:34,720 --> 01:16:36,599
Speaker 1: and they moved into running backer. He's not a good

1496
01:16:36,720 --> 01:16:38,519
Speaker 1: enough running back to be a full time running back,

1497
01:16:38,880 --> 01:16:40,680
Speaker 1: but because he can do him bold, he's carved out

1498
01:16:40,880 --> 01:16:44,320
Speaker 1: a nice career for himself, all right, sort of a

1499
01:16:44,600 --> 01:16:47,320
Speaker 1: Swiss army neck. Okay, yeah, thanks, Sean, appreciate the call.

1500
01:16:47,800 --> 01:16:51,920
Speaker 1: Todd's in North Carolina. Hey, Todd, let me start by

1501
01:16:52,000 --> 01:16:54,479
Speaker 1: throwing Marine Corps under the bus. I called it in

1502
01:16:54,680 --> 01:16:58,000
Speaker 1: yesterday to the show, and he goes, PFW and Progress,

1503
01:16:58,800 --> 01:17:03,880
Speaker 1: Oh and it was an even PU Patriots unfiltered Rook

1504
01:17:03,920 --> 01:17:06,640
Speaker 1: show though yeah he never it was Rook show. I

1505
01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:11,800
Speaker 1: just slipped up and said unfiltered, right, Yeah, Matt's never mad.

1506
01:17:12,720 --> 01:17:16,400
Speaker 1: Progress doesn't even know what it is anyway, Guys, I

1507
01:17:16,520 --> 01:17:18,439
Speaker 1: was talking to a friend and they seem to think

1508
01:17:18,520 --> 01:17:21,559
Speaker 1: that maybe part of the defensive drop off last year

1509
01:17:21,680 --> 01:17:25,920
Speaker 1: was just fatigue because the accompanying pieces to Barmore and

1510
01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:29,200
Speaker 1: Jude arm just got worn out and we did they didn't,

1511
01:17:30,000 --> 01:17:32,560
Speaker 1: you know, they weren't able to hold their position, so

1512
01:17:32,760 --> 01:17:36,800
Speaker 1: Jude On and uh Barnmore started to fall off towards

1513
01:17:36,880 --> 01:17:38,880
Speaker 1: end of the year. I don't know. I thought it

1514
01:17:39,000 --> 01:17:42,160
Speaker 1: was just they played tougher teams, the schedules got harder.

1515
01:17:42,240 --> 01:17:45,000
Speaker 1: But what's what's your take on that? Yeah, I don't

1516
01:17:45,040 --> 01:17:48,840
Speaker 1: think that like did J. C. Jackson get tired like Mills?

1517
01:17:48,880 --> 01:17:51,320
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I think it's what, did you

1518
01:17:51,400 --> 01:17:54,479
Speaker 1: play a better schedule? Yeah, But I also think it's

1519
01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:57,400
Speaker 1: bigger than that. It was bigger than I think they

1520
01:17:57,600 --> 01:18:01,360
Speaker 1: they played below their talent level. I think they you know,

1521
01:18:01,720 --> 01:18:03,800
Speaker 1: it was bad, but I don't think it needed to

1522
01:18:03,880 --> 01:18:05,320
Speaker 1: be as bad as it was. And I think it's

1523
01:18:05,360 --> 01:18:06,680
Speaker 1: been like that for a couple of years now, and

1524
01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:09,120
Speaker 1: that's you know, if you if you do it again

1525
01:18:09,200 --> 01:18:11,679
Speaker 1: this year, you're the same kind of thing. It's schedule

1526
01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:13,640
Speaker 1: is gonna be defined by that final stretch run and

1527
01:18:14,160 --> 01:18:15,840
Speaker 1: you know, they got to find a way to get

1528
01:18:15,920 --> 01:18:18,759
Speaker 1: back to that all right, you got some leeway in September,

1529
01:18:18,840 --> 01:18:20,880
Speaker 1: figure out what you do, lock in on it in

1530
01:18:20,960 --> 01:18:23,120
Speaker 1: October and November and then and then really start to

1531
01:18:23,160 --> 01:18:25,519
Speaker 1: execute it in December, and we just we just haven't

1532
01:18:25,560 --> 01:18:27,640
Speaker 1: seen it. Now with the extra game, it's even you know,

1533
01:18:27,720 --> 01:18:30,800
Speaker 1: more exacerbated by the poor play down the end, and

1534
01:18:31,040 --> 01:18:33,280
Speaker 1: you know, with teams pushing for playoff positions and all that,

1535
01:18:33,479 --> 01:18:37,200
Speaker 1: it's it's not gonna fly this. Do you think anybody

1536
01:18:37,320 --> 01:18:39,559
Speaker 1: mailed it in? Like my friend I guess I kind

1537
01:18:39,560 --> 01:18:41,160
Speaker 1: of agree with them said that J. C. Jackson for

1538
01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:44,840
Speaker 1: the last couple of games was thinking out. I think

1539
01:18:44,840 --> 01:18:46,320
Speaker 1: he mailed it in in the second half of the

1540
01:18:46,360 --> 01:18:49,880
Speaker 1: playoff game. Yeah, that's it. I don't think he mailed

1541
01:18:49,880 --> 01:18:51,200
Speaker 1: it in down the stretch. I mean there was a

1542
01:18:52,360 --> 01:18:55,240
Speaker 1: game I forget which one where he missed that tackle

1543
01:18:55,320 --> 01:18:58,360
Speaker 1: around the run around below. It was Buffalo in the

1544
01:18:58,439 --> 01:19:02,840
Speaker 1: second half, right, yeah, yeah, So you know, those things

1545
01:19:03,240 --> 01:19:06,120
Speaker 1: tend to like take on a life of their own. Typically,

1546
01:19:06,160 --> 01:19:08,599
Speaker 1: put you take that one play and then you draw

1547
01:19:08,680 --> 01:19:10,960
Speaker 1: a picture of that's what he was, you know, and

1548
01:19:11,400 --> 01:19:13,479
Speaker 1: you get out on the team anymore. That's part of

1549
01:19:13,520 --> 01:19:16,360
Speaker 1: the equation too, Right, If he had resigned because Devin

1550
01:19:16,439 --> 01:19:18,120
Speaker 1: mccordy had a couple of those plays in the same

1551
01:19:18,200 --> 01:19:20,599
Speaker 1: second half. But as Mike likes to point out, every

1552
01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:23,640
Speaker 1: thirty seconds, he resigned here, So no one's saying that

1553
01:19:23,760 --> 01:19:28,839
Speaker 1: he took the took the second half. All right, thanks

1554
01:19:29,479 --> 01:19:31,400
Speaker 1: h David and Maine writes in first they have a

1555
01:19:31,479 --> 01:19:34,439
Speaker 1: bone to pick with Mike, It's obvious that there are

1556
01:19:34,560 --> 01:19:37,680
Speaker 1: times you disagree with Paul. Why not me? What? Why

1557
01:19:37,680 --> 01:19:40,599
Speaker 1: don't anybody have a bone to pick? There's plenty of people. Um,

1558
01:19:41,000 --> 01:19:43,200
Speaker 1: it's time you disagree with Paul, but you don't dive

1559
01:19:43,320 --> 01:19:46,720
Speaker 1: into an argument with Paul's echo chamber. Eric off the show. Now,

1560
01:19:47,120 --> 01:19:49,479
Speaker 1: this is the perfect opportunity to step up to the

1561
01:19:49,600 --> 01:19:52,960
Speaker 1: wide challenge and fight the good fight. There are times

1562
01:19:53,040 --> 01:19:56,840
Speaker 1: even Fred concedes. Now, so question, where do the three

1563
01:19:56,840 --> 01:19:59,200
Speaker 1: of you disagree the most on the Patriots for this year?

1564
01:19:59,400 --> 01:20:02,719
Speaker 1: Can they over come Belichick's drafting Hubris? Can Mac become

1565
01:20:02,720 --> 01:20:06,280
Speaker 1: a true Pro Bowl quarterback? Where do we disagree the most?

1566
01:20:07,040 --> 01:20:09,680
Speaker 1: I think there's hope Paul doesn't well, I mean, I

1567
01:20:10,680 --> 01:20:13,320
Speaker 1: think I would just say I think Paul's bigger concern

1568
01:20:13,439 --> 01:20:15,559
Speaker 1: is the offense, and our bigger concern is the defense. Oh,

1569
01:20:15,600 --> 01:20:19,040
Speaker 1: I'm equally concerned about both. Oh okay, y see, I'm not.

1570
01:20:19,120 --> 01:20:21,000
Speaker 1: I don't think we have much to disagree on. I

1571
01:20:21,120 --> 01:20:23,360
Speaker 1: hate to let the guy down. I think we want

1572
01:20:23,520 --> 01:20:25,360
Speaker 1: agree on a lot. And I'll tell you one thing

1573
01:20:25,520 --> 01:20:28,439
Speaker 1: for me, monkeys fight. I'll tell you another thing. I

1574
01:20:28,560 --> 01:20:30,280
Speaker 1: can count on one hand the amount of things Eric

1575
01:20:30,320 --> 01:20:33,559
Speaker 1: ever said that I agree with. So to have him

1576
01:20:33,600 --> 01:20:37,920
Speaker 1: be my echo chamber, I don't think so. I wonder

1577
01:20:37,920 --> 01:20:41,000
Speaker 1: if Verick's listening. No, he didn't listen when he was here.

1578
01:20:41,040 --> 01:20:47,519
Speaker 1: It's true, Yeah, he's probably like I'm serious, like like

1579
01:20:47,680 --> 01:20:50,680
Speaker 1: he is so happy right now to be free of this.

1580
01:20:51,120 --> 01:20:53,040
Speaker 1: Did Mike and I ever tell you the story about

1581
01:20:53,040 --> 01:20:56,240
Speaker 1: the weekend when we signed Cam Newton? It was like

1582
01:20:56,479 --> 01:20:58,960
Speaker 1: in late June, Yeah, that you called me. You and

1583
01:20:59,040 --> 01:21:01,439
Speaker 1: Matt called me on like a at our Sunday. I think, yeah,

1584
01:21:01,600 --> 01:21:03,840
Speaker 1: and you told me, you know, get ready this is

1585
01:21:03,880 --> 01:21:07,560
Speaker 1: happening and blah blah blah blah. Kim talking about it

1586
01:21:07,600 --> 01:21:11,000
Speaker 1: with Mike on Monday. You think Eric knows, wasn't He

1587
01:21:11,080 --> 01:21:15,240
Speaker 1: had vacation that week and we were like, we were off, like,

1588
01:21:15,360 --> 01:21:19,000
Speaker 1: what's what's the odds that he has had no idea. Well,

1589
01:21:19,080 --> 01:21:22,519
Speaker 1: I do still watch the news that evidently, fortunately for

1590
01:21:22,600 --> 01:21:28,479
Speaker 1: the Patriots that made it on the news. So he

1591
01:21:28,600 --> 01:21:32,120
Speaker 1: probably follows ten times the amount of people on Twitter

1592
01:21:32,240 --> 01:21:34,599
Speaker 1: that I do, but none of them are the people

1593
01:21:34,640 --> 01:21:40,280
Speaker 1: that would get you the Patriots right right, Nope. If

1594
01:21:40,320 --> 01:21:42,040
Speaker 1: you want to know, like, you know a new restaurant

1595
01:21:42,080 --> 01:21:45,120
Speaker 1: that opened up in Madrid, he just got like, I

1596
01:21:45,200 --> 01:21:49,719
Speaker 1: think Mike has concerns about the offense in the coaching scenario.

1597
01:21:50,439 --> 01:21:53,400
Speaker 1: My concerns are probably bigger than Mike's. But I don't

1598
01:21:53,400 --> 01:21:55,439
Speaker 1: think that he thinks it's a nothing burger and I

1599
01:21:55,560 --> 01:21:58,200
Speaker 1: think it's huge. I think I think it's bigger than

1600
01:21:58,280 --> 01:22:00,640
Speaker 1: Mike thinks. Yeah, we're not going to fight about that. No, No,

1601
01:22:01,040 --> 01:22:03,760
Speaker 1: it is no bigger than you think. I'm like, that's

1602
01:22:03,800 --> 01:22:06,599
Speaker 1: not anything to really fight up. We're both on the um,

1603
01:22:07,080 --> 01:22:10,320
Speaker 1: you know, concerned with it. I think mac Jones is

1604
01:22:10,400 --> 01:22:12,920
Speaker 1: probably something down the road that we could argue about.

1605
01:22:13,280 --> 01:22:16,360
Speaker 1: But but you're always surprised that I'm not like all in.

1606
01:22:18,200 --> 01:22:19,960
Speaker 1: I don't think we're that far apart right now on

1607
01:22:20,160 --> 01:22:24,040
Speaker 1: most things. Yeah, and the fact that Fred, like you said,

1608
01:22:24,120 --> 01:22:28,720
Speaker 1: even Fred sort of relents now, relents about what like,

1609
01:22:28,840 --> 01:22:31,760
Speaker 1: you don't argue with me quite as specificiously about right now.

1610
01:22:31,880 --> 01:22:35,960
Speaker 1: It's like because you're right right, right like, And I

1611
01:22:36,040 --> 01:22:38,920
Speaker 1: know people don't like that because you just want to

1612
01:22:38,920 --> 01:22:40,639
Speaker 1: always think they have a chance to win the super Bowl.

1613
01:22:40,680 --> 01:22:42,439
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody in this room right now thinks

1614
01:22:42,439 --> 01:22:43,880
Speaker 1: they have a chance to win the super Bowl. Back

1615
01:22:43,920 --> 01:22:45,840
Speaker 1: when Brady was here, we argued a lot because I

1616
01:22:45,920 --> 01:22:48,320
Speaker 1: thought the Patriots are pretty good, right, you know, it

1617
01:22:48,439 --> 01:22:50,280
Speaker 1: always that Trump card to go down at the end,

1618
01:22:52,160 --> 01:22:54,600
Speaker 1: to move on. I couldn't wait to get to this

1619
01:22:54,680 --> 01:22:57,000
Speaker 1: point where it's I thought Brady was a good quarterback,

1620
01:22:57,280 --> 01:22:59,920
Speaker 1: you know, right. For some reason, Mike couldn't wait to

1621
01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:02,240
Speaker 1: get rid of him. That's a great point. Eric thought

1622
01:23:02,280 --> 01:23:06,600
Speaker 1: the window closed in twenty fifteen, fifteen. I think it

1623
01:23:06,680 --> 01:23:11,880
Speaker 1: was before that. Really, Uh, Jake from that's what happens

1624
01:23:11,920 --> 01:23:16,000
Speaker 1: when he gives an opinion, right, and that's why he

1625
01:23:16,040 --> 01:23:20,880
Speaker 1: doesn't give a lot. Nope, Jake from Bendigo, Australia, he's

1626
01:23:20,920 --> 01:23:24,439
Speaker 1: got a bone to pick with me. Everyone gets drunk

1627
01:23:24,520 --> 01:23:28,120
Speaker 1: holiday in Australia because it's the best drinking culture in

1628
01:23:28,160 --> 01:23:30,800
Speaker 1: the world. Also, every second animal could kill you. So

1629
01:23:30,920 --> 01:23:33,240
Speaker 1: what's what's not enticing about that, I said, I had

1630
01:23:33,280 --> 01:23:37,280
Speaker 1: no interest to vacationing in Australia. Yeah, it kind of

1631
01:23:37,320 --> 01:23:38,880
Speaker 1: makes my point. Oh did you happen to see the

1632
01:23:38,960 --> 01:23:42,000
Speaker 1: guy that wrote in an ASPFW He was he wanted

1633
01:23:42,120 --> 01:23:44,400
Speaker 1: us to not talk as much about the coaching thing,

1634
01:23:44,520 --> 01:23:46,639
Speaker 1: but at the bottom he said, he's from Napa Valley

1635
01:23:47,080 --> 01:23:52,559
Speaker 1: and nobody's absolutely nobody sniffed the cort right. Eric went

1636
01:23:52,600 --> 01:23:54,400
Speaker 1: on a whole big rant about how they do actually

1637
01:23:54,439 --> 01:23:57,840
Speaker 1: sniff the court before he left here. Yeah, yeah, and

1638
01:23:58,080 --> 01:23:59,920
Speaker 1: that's what the guy from Napa Valley said. I mean,

1639
01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:03,240
Speaker 1: I know it's an obscure, you know, wine area. I'm

1640
01:24:04,280 --> 01:24:06,800
Speaker 1: I'm not denying that people sniff the court. They do.

1641
01:24:07,400 --> 01:24:10,320
Speaker 1: What I'm saying is that experts say it means nothing

1642
01:24:10,640 --> 01:24:13,280
Speaker 1: like occasionally you'll be able to smell like if a

1643
01:24:13,640 --> 01:24:16,960
Speaker 1: wine went totally bad, because you can smell that, But like,

1644
01:24:17,720 --> 01:24:20,560
Speaker 1: you know, like, what did it smells like wine to me?

1645
01:24:20,680 --> 01:24:25,200
Speaker 1: I'm sorry? What was that? Sounds like a red probably

1646
01:24:26,120 --> 01:24:29,040
Speaker 1: or a Two football questions, One, do you think we

1647
01:24:29,160 --> 01:24:32,680
Speaker 1: will get the throwbacks this year? Yes? I do think

1648
01:24:32,720 --> 01:24:34,920
Speaker 1: we'll get that. I hope so. And Two does anyone

1649
01:24:35,080 --> 01:24:37,639
Speaker 1: on here have a crack at fantasy football. I'm thinking

1650
01:24:37,680 --> 01:24:41,000
Speaker 1: of giving it a crack this year. Any tips Like

1651
01:24:41,320 --> 01:24:43,960
Speaker 1: I don't like fantasy Matt, you do it, Matt, I

1652
01:24:44,160 --> 01:24:46,040
Speaker 1: suck at it, But you have like four teams going

1653
01:24:46,280 --> 01:24:49,519
Speaker 1: and I suck at it. Okay. I used to play

1654
01:24:49,560 --> 01:24:51,479
Speaker 1: fantasy a lot, and I had a partner who was

1655
01:24:51,640 --> 01:24:54,120
Speaker 1: way into it and would want to have conversations about it.

1656
01:24:54,200 --> 01:24:56,320
Speaker 1: And I just found it too. I like just rooting

1657
01:24:56,360 --> 01:24:58,960
Speaker 1: for the Patriots and watching one team and knowing, like

1658
01:24:59,120 --> 01:25:01,439
Speaker 1: not having a like, Oh, I got Seattle and I

1659
01:25:01,479 --> 01:25:04,080
Speaker 1: got to figure out at eleven o'clock how many points

1660
01:25:04,200 --> 01:25:07,559
Speaker 1: this guy scored. It's the most accurate about ever anybody

1661
01:25:07,640 --> 01:25:09,400
Speaker 1: ever made. I don't know who made it first. But

1662
01:25:09,520 --> 01:25:12,280
Speaker 1: nobody cares about your fantasy football team. No one cares

1663
01:25:12,320 --> 01:25:16,000
Speaker 1: about your NCAA brackets. No one cares about your fantasy football, right.

1664
01:25:16,240 --> 01:25:18,120
Speaker 1: I mean, can it be fun when it's in the

1665
01:25:18,200 --> 01:25:20,599
Speaker 1: playoffs and you're coming down and you've got a little

1666
01:25:20,640 --> 01:25:22,280
Speaker 1: bit of a lead or a little bit of a margin,

1667
01:25:22,360 --> 01:25:24,960
Speaker 1: and there's one random player you're watching Monday night football

1668
01:25:25,000 --> 01:25:27,240
Speaker 1: to see if that guy delivers, Like that could be fun.

1669
01:25:27,360 --> 01:25:29,400
Speaker 1: That could be fun. But I just found that the

1670
01:25:29,479 --> 01:25:31,360
Speaker 1: tonnage of trying to follow it every Sunday and all

1671
01:25:31,360 --> 01:25:32,920
Speaker 1: the games, and how are all my guys doing it?

1672
01:25:33,080 --> 01:25:34,920
Speaker 1: It's a thing Mike and I agree on. That's exactly

1673
01:25:35,000 --> 01:25:36,680
Speaker 1: why I don't. But you don't have to just want

1674
01:25:36,800 --> 01:25:38,400
Speaker 1: I just want to watch the games. I don't want to.

1675
01:25:38,479 --> 01:25:40,000
Speaker 1: You can set it and forget it, I know, but

1676
01:25:40,080 --> 01:25:41,720
Speaker 1: I don't want to. I don't want to watch the

1677
01:25:41,840 --> 01:25:45,200
Speaker 1: games with the thought that my team scored a touchdown,

1678
01:25:45,280 --> 01:25:47,680
Speaker 1: but right guy didn't score right. And that's why I

1679
01:25:47,840 --> 01:25:49,599
Speaker 1: never really got into it. Like if I had Ceedee

1680
01:25:49,680 --> 01:25:51,760
Speaker 1: Lamb and you know, against last year and then he

1681
01:25:51,800 --> 01:25:54,080
Speaker 1: scored that touchdown, like I would want to be like, well,

1682
01:25:54,120 --> 01:25:55,920
Speaker 1: at least I got six points. The one year I

1683
01:25:56,000 --> 01:25:57,760
Speaker 1: did it, I did exactly what you're talking about, Fred,

1684
01:25:57,840 --> 01:25:59,080
Speaker 1: I said it, and forget it. I mean it add

1685
01:25:59,120 --> 01:26:02,400
Speaker 1: weeks that I didn't even have quarterback active, just auto drafted.

1686
01:26:02,560 --> 01:26:04,639
Speaker 1: But by the time that's respectful the rest of the league,

1687
01:26:04,640 --> 01:26:06,680
Speaker 1: you know, like I didn't like it, wasn't that disrespectful.

1688
01:26:06,680 --> 01:26:08,760
Speaker 1: I lost one game the whole year and I won

1689
01:26:08,800 --> 01:26:12,559
Speaker 1: the championship, proving didn't even look at it. How it's

1690
01:26:12,920 --> 01:26:16,240
Speaker 1: one thousand percent luck based. Yeah, all I did was

1691
01:26:16,280 --> 01:26:19,080
Speaker 1: picked all my favorite guys. I picked Curtis Martin went

1692
01:26:19,200 --> 01:26:21,600
Speaker 1: in like two thousand and four, but just because I

1693
01:26:21,720 --> 01:26:23,439
Speaker 1: like him, he was like passed his prime. He ended

1694
01:26:23,520 --> 01:26:25,800
Speaker 1: up leading the league and rushing. I had Michael Vick

1695
01:26:26,120 --> 01:26:29,160
Speaker 1: like I just it was silly. It was a silly,

1696
01:26:29,240 --> 01:26:32,519
Speaker 1: silly like fantasy team. I never made one transaction the

1697
01:26:32,680 --> 01:26:35,080
Speaker 1: entire year. In the championship game, I was one. I

1698
01:26:35,160 --> 01:26:38,080
Speaker 1: had one few one too few players to have a

1699
01:26:38,200 --> 01:26:41,080
Speaker 1: full active roster. I just let it go. Yeah, and

1700
01:26:41,160 --> 01:26:43,200
Speaker 1: I won, And then there's like people, I'll never do

1701
01:26:43,280 --> 01:26:45,080
Speaker 1: it again. Do you really think the experts are experts

1702
01:26:45,120 --> 01:26:48,400
Speaker 1: in fantasy fo Andrew Berry like, I don't even field yates.

1703
01:26:48,400 --> 01:26:52,719
Speaker 1: I think yeah, yeah, I think more. You know about

1704
01:26:52,800 --> 01:26:55,439
Speaker 1: who's injured, who's in, who's out, who's playing well, what

1705
01:26:55,560 --> 01:26:58,479
Speaker 1: the matchups are, what good defense is good, you know

1706
01:26:58,600 --> 01:27:01,760
Speaker 1: what they I think there are people that are like

1707
01:27:02,040 --> 01:27:04,599
Speaker 1: really really good at that. I think so too, even

1708
01:27:04,640 --> 01:27:07,200
Speaker 1: though I don't do it um Like I would say

1709
01:27:07,240 --> 01:27:09,760
Speaker 1: the equivalent of me winning that, you know and just

1710
01:27:09,840 --> 01:27:12,640
Speaker 1: saying it's entirely based on luck is like you know,

1711
01:27:12,880 --> 01:27:16,400
Speaker 1: someone who bets games and says, I like the Ravens

1712
01:27:16,520 --> 01:27:18,599
Speaker 1: uniforms better than the Steelers. I'm gonna bet the Ravens

1713
01:27:18,640 --> 01:27:21,360
Speaker 1: and they win. You can win doing that like it's

1714
01:27:21,400 --> 01:27:23,400
Speaker 1: but it's luck. And I think that's what I did

1715
01:27:23,439 --> 01:27:25,680
Speaker 1: in Fantasy that year, Like is that what broke you

1716
01:27:25,760 --> 01:27:27,240
Speaker 1: of it? And you're like this, No, I just like

1717
01:27:27,360 --> 01:27:29,840
Speaker 1: they they they needed one more guy to fill out

1718
01:27:29,880 --> 01:27:32,680
Speaker 1: the league. It was a Patriots league, and we did

1719
01:27:32,760 --> 01:27:34,400
Speaker 1: it all together. And I just did it just to

1720
01:27:34,479 --> 01:27:36,800
Speaker 1: be a team player. And I mocked everybody, as you

1721
01:27:36,920 --> 01:27:41,280
Speaker 1: know I can alan right. Oh. The third thing that

1722
01:27:41,320 --> 01:27:43,040
Speaker 1: no one cares about, Fred Ash your golf game. No

1723
01:27:43,680 --> 01:27:46,240
Speaker 1: one cares that you're Pard the ninth that Leo J. Martin, Right,

1724
01:27:46,640 --> 01:27:50,360
Speaker 1: no one cares. It's like that guy, the TV guy,

1725
01:27:50,479 --> 01:27:53,320
Speaker 1: you know, people growing up to be their parents. Yeah,

1726
01:27:53,640 --> 01:27:56,479
Speaker 1: nobody cares. There's nobody here made the movie right, right,

1727
01:27:56,720 --> 01:27:58,599
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? It came down seventeen the fairway.

1728
01:27:58,640 --> 01:28:01,479
Speaker 1: I just really yea hear people talk like that. Oh yeah,

1729
01:28:01,520 --> 01:28:03,200
Speaker 1: and I golf all the time, and I tell you

1730
01:28:03,320 --> 01:28:05,760
Speaker 1: that I went golfing. I never like to hear about

1731
01:28:05,800 --> 01:28:08,120
Speaker 1: how your body felt, like, oh man, I was dying,

1732
01:28:08,439 --> 01:28:10,080
Speaker 1: you know, how well or bad you play. Because I

1733
01:28:10,160 --> 01:28:12,240
Speaker 1: had to play a team. I don't usually play a team,

1734
01:28:12,280 --> 01:28:15,400
Speaker 1: but I did a week ago Monday. This is a difference.

1735
01:28:16,680 --> 01:28:20,639
Speaker 1: Fat bash Alan says, glad to see in his absence

1736
01:28:20,760 --> 01:28:23,080
Speaker 1: that Eric is still contributing as much to the show

1737
01:28:23,120 --> 01:28:26,559
Speaker 1: as he did when Andy was there. Speaking of Big Head,

1738
01:28:26,600 --> 01:28:28,800
Speaker 1: he seems to be really high on Jack Jones. Just

1739
01:28:29,000 --> 01:28:32,400
Speaker 1: curious if you have any favorite new additions to watch

1740
01:28:32,520 --> 01:28:34,960
Speaker 1: to play a significant role on this team this season.

1741
01:28:36,080 --> 01:28:37,559
Speaker 1: Not yet. I mean, I think he's an easy one

1742
01:28:37,600 --> 01:28:39,679
Speaker 1: if you watch that practice, just because he was involved

1743
01:28:39,960 --> 01:28:43,320
Speaker 1: and look quick, look look scrappy. I thought, if you

1744
01:28:43,400 --> 01:28:46,519
Speaker 1: had to say right now, other than Cole Strange, could

1745
01:28:46,560 --> 01:28:47,920
Speaker 1: you pick a guy that you think will play a

1746
01:28:47,960 --> 01:28:50,679
Speaker 1: significant role this year. I want to believe Marcus Jones

1747
01:28:50,720 --> 01:28:53,200
Speaker 1: will at least on, you know, as a returner and

1748
01:28:53,720 --> 01:28:55,960
Speaker 1: kind of a piece in the in the secondary somewhere.

1749
01:28:56,439 --> 01:28:59,120
Speaker 1: But after that, yeah, I don't know if you're gonna

1750
01:28:59,160 --> 01:29:01,479
Speaker 1: get anybody that plays a significant role. I mean, Cole Strange,

1751
01:29:01,479 --> 01:29:04,240
Speaker 1: I think we'll start that will be obviously significant, but

1752
01:29:04,280 --> 01:29:06,559
Speaker 1: it's hard to see Jack Jones and Marcus Jones both

1753
01:29:06,920 --> 01:29:09,519
Speaker 1: unless they both play out of their minds, you know,

1754
01:29:09,680 --> 01:29:15,000
Speaker 1: dethroning Jalen Mills and Malcolm Terrence Mitchell and Jonathan Jones

1755
01:29:15,040 --> 01:29:18,120
Speaker 1: and Miles Bryant. And it's hard to see them do that.

1756
01:29:18,200 --> 01:29:21,519
Speaker 1: But I think strange. You're right left Garden as a returner.

1757
01:29:21,560 --> 01:29:23,720
Speaker 1: I think that's the minimum. That's the minimum I'm hoping for.

1758
01:29:24,840 --> 01:29:27,280
Speaker 1: Let's see, Matt writes in and by the way, Andy

1759
01:29:27,360 --> 01:29:29,840
Speaker 1: sat with Mike and I and that's why we're all

1760
01:29:29,920 --> 01:29:33,040
Speaker 1: high on Jack Jones. Sort of full circle. When you

1761
01:29:33,160 --> 01:29:37,080
Speaker 1: sit together, you'll like minded, right, Yeah, Matt says he's

1762
01:29:37,120 --> 01:29:40,360
Speaker 1: writing in from Chicago. Then a long time Patriots fan,

1763
01:29:40,520 --> 01:29:43,240
Speaker 1: but a new listener to the podcast. We'll welcome. I

1764
01:29:43,360 --> 01:29:46,639
Speaker 1: believe Rashad brought up a similar point on Tuesday's podcast.

1765
01:29:46,760 --> 01:29:49,519
Speaker 1: But do you think at the Patriots defense will carve

1766
01:29:49,560 --> 01:29:53,360
Speaker 1: out a niche for themselves this season, such as having

1767
01:29:53,439 --> 01:29:56,479
Speaker 1: a great run stopping game or a third down defense

1768
01:29:56,760 --> 01:29:59,639
Speaker 1: for example, Like, well, they kind of have something they're

1769
01:29:59,680 --> 01:30:02,679
Speaker 1: known for on defense. I mean, I think Paul said

1770
01:30:02,720 --> 01:30:05,120
Speaker 1: it and I agree, Sorry to do that again, um,

1771
01:30:05,600 --> 01:30:07,280
Speaker 1: but that they were good on third down last year.

1772
01:30:07,280 --> 01:30:08,280
Speaker 1: I think it was one of the one of the

1773
01:30:08,360 --> 01:30:10,360
Speaker 1: only areas especially third and longs. I think they're one

1774
01:30:10,400 --> 01:30:12,400
Speaker 1: of the best teams in the league, but it's hard

1775
01:30:12,439 --> 01:30:14,439
Speaker 1: to see it on paper right now. I can't. I

1776
01:30:14,520 --> 01:30:16,479
Speaker 1: can't sit here and give you a good reason why

1777
01:30:16,479 --> 01:30:19,080
Speaker 1: they run defense is going to suddenly, you know, turn

1778
01:30:19,160 --> 01:30:22,000
Speaker 1: around this year, or you know that their pass rush

1779
01:30:22,120 --> 01:30:25,599
Speaker 1: is suddenly gonna be better. I mean, Barmore and jude

1780
01:30:25,600 --> 01:30:28,439
Speaker 1: On feel great. Hopefully they're able to do it and

1781
01:30:28,640 --> 01:30:31,800
Speaker 1: you can get some complimentary guys that open up stuff

1782
01:30:31,840 --> 01:30:34,200
Speaker 1: for them a little bit. But after that, I don't know.

1783
01:30:34,439 --> 01:30:36,680
Speaker 1: That's the safety group. How do they deploy them? Is that,

1784
01:30:36,880 --> 01:30:38,840
Speaker 1: you know, something that gives them a new edge, Like

1785
01:30:38,920 --> 01:30:40,840
Speaker 1: that's the only kind of thing I could make it. Well,

1786
01:30:41,680 --> 01:30:44,640
Speaker 1: they could create some turnovers turnover team, but like, but

1787
01:30:44,800 --> 01:30:47,800
Speaker 1: getting pressure of force and bad throws. You know, he

1788
01:30:47,840 --> 01:30:49,559
Speaker 1: didn't you didn't really do that. I mean it seemed

1789
01:30:49,600 --> 01:30:51,600
Speaker 1: like Josh Allen had you on your heels and was

1790
01:30:51,680 --> 01:30:54,480
Speaker 1: just dealing. You know, how do you get him uncomfortable?

1791
01:30:54,560 --> 01:30:57,120
Speaker 1: How do you get him into mistakes? That's you know

1792
01:30:57,200 --> 01:30:59,040
Speaker 1: what you just you didn't see any of it down

1793
01:30:59,160 --> 01:31:01,640
Speaker 1: down the stretch last year. Also, do you think that

1794
01:31:01,800 --> 01:31:04,760
Speaker 1: trading down and letting Trent McDuffie go to Kansas City

1795
01:31:04,840 --> 01:31:07,200
Speaker 1: will come back to bite the Patriots. I know they

1796
01:31:07,240 --> 01:31:09,200
Speaker 1: don't play Kansas City this year, but he seemed like

1797
01:31:09,240 --> 01:31:12,479
Speaker 1: a guy who could have an immediate impact at corner.

1798
01:31:12,920 --> 01:31:14,960
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, I thought he was fine.

1799
01:31:15,040 --> 01:31:17,800
Speaker 1: I like, he just seemed like he matched up with

1800
01:31:19,240 --> 01:31:22,120
Speaker 1: their kind of guy at a position and need. But

1801
01:31:22,960 --> 01:31:24,000
Speaker 1: you know, at the end of the day, do you

1802
01:31:24,120 --> 01:31:26,679
Speaker 1: feel like, oh, he's a thousand times better than Marcus

1803
01:31:26,760 --> 01:31:28,639
Speaker 1: Jones or Jacksons. I don't know. They all seem kind

1804
01:31:28,640 --> 01:31:30,840
Speaker 1: of in the same little family a guys. Any of

1805
01:31:30,920 --> 01:31:33,519
Speaker 1: them could be, you know, maybe Marcus more than Jack.

1806
01:31:33,640 --> 01:31:35,720
Speaker 1: But like, but like I said on the Draft Show,

1807
01:31:35,760 --> 01:31:38,360
Speaker 1: I wasn't pounding my fit like we gotta get Trent McDuffie.

1808
01:31:38,360 --> 01:31:40,120
Speaker 1: He's gonna change it. Like if we had Trent McDuffie

1809
01:31:40,200 --> 01:31:42,519
Speaker 1: right now, I probably feel exactly the same about the defense.

1810
01:31:42,720 --> 01:31:47,599
Speaker 1: What if you had Trent McDuffie and Cole Strange same.

1811
01:31:48,040 --> 01:31:51,479
Speaker 1: I don't know, Like, fine, you don't think Trent McDuffie

1812
01:31:51,560 --> 01:31:56,040
Speaker 1: is better than the Joneses. I mean, maybe maybe potentially

1813
01:31:56,080 --> 01:31:57,680
Speaker 1: a little. I just can't see a five eight guy

1814
01:31:58,160 --> 01:32:01,080
Speaker 1: really covering out a niche as a regular cover corner

1815
01:32:01,120 --> 01:32:04,800
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Maybe I'm a sizeist. Yeah, does that

1816
01:32:04,920 --> 01:32:06,839
Speaker 1: make me a size It seems like he's in between,

1817
01:32:06,960 --> 01:32:08,960
Speaker 1: you know, like, so is he at five of whatever

1818
01:32:09,000 --> 01:32:10,680
Speaker 1: he is? Five eleven? Is he you know, he's not

1819
01:32:10,880 --> 01:32:13,120
Speaker 1: that big for outside? So is he going to be

1820
01:32:13,120 --> 01:32:14,600
Speaker 1: an outside guy or is he gonna get stuck in

1821
01:32:14,640 --> 01:32:16,000
Speaker 1: the slot? And then if you're in the slot and

1822
01:32:16,040 --> 01:32:18,920
Speaker 1: you're five eleven versus five eight, I don't know. I mean,

1823
01:32:19,560 --> 01:32:21,120
Speaker 1: we'll see, we'll see what kind of player he is.

1824
01:32:21,160 --> 01:32:24,080
Speaker 1: Maybe he's a starting outside corner, and maybe he looks great,

1825
01:32:24,160 --> 01:32:26,720
Speaker 1: and damn that's exactly what we needed and we were wrong.

1826
01:32:26,800 --> 01:32:28,559
Speaker 1: But you're right. I mean, that doesn't mean just because

1827
01:32:28,600 --> 01:32:30,320
Speaker 1: he was drafting the first round, we've seen it. But

1828
01:32:30,360 --> 01:32:32,320
Speaker 1: I don't mean he's good my you know, my concern

1829
01:32:32,400 --> 01:32:34,200
Speaker 1: with him was just that, all right, well, he's not

1830
01:32:34,280 --> 01:32:37,000
Speaker 1: that prototypical man kind of size. Yeah, he's got all

1831
01:32:37,000 --> 01:32:39,759
Speaker 1: the intangibles, but he's probably more of this like slot

1832
01:32:39,880 --> 01:32:42,479
Speaker 1: safety kind of hybrid guy. And and and I don't

1833
01:32:42,520 --> 01:32:44,479
Speaker 1: know for sure if that's exactly what they need. So

1834
01:32:44,920 --> 01:32:46,800
Speaker 1: I think i'd think a little more of McDuffie than

1835
01:32:47,000 --> 01:32:49,360
Speaker 1: Mike does. Is that enough for an argument? Yeah, sure,

1836
01:32:50,400 --> 01:32:52,599
Speaker 1: he's gonna stink Paul. We'll make that into an argument.

1837
01:32:53,120 --> 01:32:55,880
Speaker 1: Tim and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I have a

1838
01:32:55,960 --> 01:32:59,519
Speaker 1: question for Deuceoper, he's our expert on clothing in a

1839
01:32:59,600 --> 01:33:01,599
Speaker 1: tie or for the Patriots. What do you think about

1840
01:33:01,720 --> 01:33:05,400
Speaker 1: Jack Jones's eighty arm bands? Buddy of mine was arguing

1841
01:33:05,479 --> 01:33:07,920
Speaker 1: about it. He thinks it's the stupidest thing ever. But

1842
01:33:08,080 --> 01:33:10,880
Speaker 1: I think if he's sweet, a lot of kids would

1843
01:33:10,960 --> 01:33:12,920
Speaker 1: do it. I don't know what that means. If he's

1844
01:33:13,160 --> 01:33:15,760
Speaker 1: I think he's Yeah, well, if he's good, so what

1845
01:33:15,960 --> 01:33:18,200
Speaker 1: I don't even know what. He wears a lot of

1846
01:33:18,520 --> 01:33:21,160
Speaker 1: like wrist bands on his arms, so it looks like,

1847
01:33:21,320 --> 01:33:23,880
Speaker 1: you know, there's like five, six, seven of them, so

1848
01:33:23,960 --> 01:33:26,400
Speaker 1: it looks like they're all, you know, lining his arms.

1849
01:33:28,080 --> 01:33:30,479
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I I have to say I

1850
01:33:30,600 --> 01:33:33,439
Speaker 1: kind of like his his overall, the way he plays,

1851
01:33:33,520 --> 01:33:35,360
Speaker 1: the style that he plays him. But I don't know

1852
01:33:35,479 --> 01:33:38,880
Speaker 1: that he's got an athleticism to him that sort of

1853
01:33:38,880 --> 01:33:41,360
Speaker 1: showed up just by watching him move around the field,

1854
01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:45,240
Speaker 1: just a very like superficial first impression. Yeah, we'll see

1855
01:33:45,360 --> 01:33:48,120
Speaker 1: just seemed kind of wired and quick and talking about

1856
01:33:48,120 --> 01:33:49,679
Speaker 1: you know stuff. I like the fact that Bill spent

1857
01:33:49,760 --> 01:33:51,479
Speaker 1: as much time with him as he did. I know

1858
01:33:51,600 --> 01:33:54,719
Speaker 1: that sounds silly, but I like the fact that Bill

1859
01:33:55,080 --> 01:33:56,840
Speaker 1: was talking to him about some of the techniques on

1860
01:33:56,920 --> 01:34:00,439
Speaker 1: punt returns and stuff in two different times during that

1861
01:34:00,560 --> 01:34:06,519
Speaker 1: last drill. Yeah. Joel in Lake Tahoe, California, Joel, I

1862
01:34:06,600 --> 01:34:09,680
Speaker 1: would pay for Bill's breakdowns if he analyzed plays other

1863
01:34:09,760 --> 01:34:12,760
Speaker 1: than punt and kick return every freaking week. If Bill

1864
01:34:12,800 --> 01:34:15,080
Speaker 1: would break down the best four plays instead of the

1865
01:34:15,160 --> 01:34:19,360
Speaker 1: four most boring plays. You watch the plays forward and

1866
01:34:19,479 --> 01:34:22,240
Speaker 1: reverse about twenty times that Bill spits out one sentence,

1867
01:34:22,520 --> 01:34:25,519
Speaker 1: Look how the punter walks onto the field, look at him,

1868
01:34:25,560 --> 01:34:28,719
Speaker 1: extend his leg. Fix that, and I would come one,

1869
01:34:29,280 --> 01:34:33,560
Speaker 1: that's that's he's no, wait a minute, what he's obviously

1870
01:34:33,680 --> 01:34:37,479
Speaker 1: doing the Paul slash Andy exaggeration. Yes, but there's some

1871
01:34:37,640 --> 01:34:42,880
Speaker 1: truth to every exaggeration. He doesn't like unbelievable amount of

1872
01:34:42,920 --> 01:34:45,600
Speaker 1: special teams plays, which I think it's his insistence of

1873
01:34:45,720 --> 01:34:48,840
Speaker 1: telling you how important special teams are. He does that

1874
01:34:49,080 --> 01:34:51,720
Speaker 1: which no one cares. And unless it's like the game

1875
01:34:51,760 --> 01:34:55,560
Speaker 1: winning punt return for a touchdown, no one cares. And

1876
01:34:56,040 --> 01:34:58,240
Speaker 1: the other thing is, I do feel like when he

1877
01:34:58,360 --> 01:35:01,080
Speaker 1: watches the play, he's he does it like he would

1878
01:35:01,120 --> 01:35:05,240
Speaker 1: do it, you know, with his coaches. I'm sorry, but

1879
01:35:05,360 --> 01:35:08,479
Speaker 1: most people just watching it layman like me, they're not

1880
01:35:08,600 --> 01:35:12,719
Speaker 1: watching the ninth time to see the different Nuance showed

1881
01:35:12,760 --> 01:35:14,479
Speaker 1: me a play a couple of times. Explain it to me,

1882
01:35:14,800 --> 01:35:17,120
Speaker 1: Describe why it worked or didn't work, whatever the case

1883
01:35:17,240 --> 01:35:20,400
Speaker 1: may be. Who you know who did the right you know,

1884
01:35:20,560 --> 01:35:22,679
Speaker 1: maybe you know, maybe if there's a big run stuff

1885
01:35:22,720 --> 01:35:25,519
Speaker 1: on on third and one, show me the guy that

1886
01:35:25,640 --> 01:35:28,519
Speaker 1: no one's talking about that occupied two blockers and then

1887
01:35:28,600 --> 01:35:30,400
Speaker 1: let's get on with it like it goes on. Well,

1888
01:35:30,439 --> 01:35:33,240
Speaker 1: I think I think he does special teams a lot

1889
01:35:33,280 --> 01:35:36,439
Speaker 1: because I think, like anything else, he doesn't really want

1890
01:35:36,479 --> 01:35:39,640
Speaker 1: to give away what he really thinks about opponents. You know,

1891
01:35:39,840 --> 01:35:41,479
Speaker 1: you might be right, you know, you might be right.

1892
01:35:41,640 --> 01:35:44,280
Speaker 1: I think it's more the last couple of years ago

1893
01:35:44,360 --> 01:35:46,120
Speaker 1: you kind of have to use the special teams plays

1894
01:35:46,320 --> 01:35:48,680
Speaker 1: the last couple of years. Let's not make last year

1895
01:35:48,720 --> 01:35:50,439
Speaker 1: out to be like it was a train wreck. Yeah, guy,

1896
01:35:50,479 --> 01:35:52,800
Speaker 1: don't make me out to be uh Sunshine dot com.

1897
01:35:52,920 --> 01:35:57,519
Speaker 1: That's only during the season Patrick's in Germany. Since it's

1898
01:35:57,520 --> 01:36:00,920
Speaker 1: still offseason issue, I got one quick question about Jamie Collins.

1899
01:36:01,479 --> 01:36:04,240
Speaker 1: I think everybody knows his elite athleticism in the kind

1900
01:36:04,280 --> 01:36:06,679
Speaker 1: of plays he's able to make. He got two big contracts,

1901
01:36:06,720 --> 01:36:09,960
Speaker 1: but never really made it as an elite player that is,

1902
01:36:10,040 --> 01:36:12,679
Speaker 1: leading a defense. What do you think is the reason

1903
01:36:13,000 --> 01:36:15,800
Speaker 1: or reasons for that. He definitely carved out a real

1904
01:36:15,920 --> 01:36:18,720
Speaker 1: nice career, but he'll never be remembered as the guy,

1905
01:36:18,960 --> 01:36:21,360
Speaker 1: if you know what I mean. I don't know what

1906
01:36:21,439 --> 01:36:24,920
Speaker 1: you mean. Yeah, I don't know. I mean I think

1907
01:36:25,240 --> 01:36:26,880
Speaker 1: he probably just one of those guys who was a

1908
01:36:26,920 --> 01:36:30,599
Speaker 1: little bit more athletic than he was. I don't want

1909
01:36:30,600 --> 01:36:33,479
Speaker 1: to say leader as but just but I also don't

1910
01:36:33,520 --> 01:36:36,080
Speaker 1: think he was ever paid as a superstar. Like. I

1911
01:36:36,160 --> 01:36:40,040
Speaker 1: don't think that those contracts were completely like out of

1912
01:36:40,080 --> 01:36:44,080
Speaker 1: the realm at you know, yeah, reality for him. You

1913
01:36:44,160 --> 01:36:47,599
Speaker 1: know he went to Cleveland, he was like the elading tackler.

1914
01:36:47,680 --> 01:36:49,960
Speaker 1: I don't think he was. He's not Miles Garrett on

1915
01:36:50,120 --> 01:36:54,200
Speaker 1: Cleveland's defense, right. That's the the money for the like

1916
01:36:54,320 --> 01:36:57,840
Speaker 1: the elite players is twice what Jamie Collins made. Didn't

1917
01:36:57,840 --> 01:37:00,560
Speaker 1: even like a fifty million dollar contract something like that.

1918
01:37:00,600 --> 01:37:03,120
Speaker 1: And I don't remember or am I misremembering? Did he

1919
01:37:03,200 --> 01:37:05,280
Speaker 1: get more money than I thought? Oh? I saw it

1920
01:37:05,320 --> 01:37:08,599
Speaker 1: with too. I saw Deuce's reaction in the different monitor

1921
01:37:09,320 --> 01:37:13,000
Speaker 1: Recover his rehab. His rehab girl was on you like

1922
01:37:13,200 --> 01:37:18,000
Speaker 1: her Recovery America? Yeah, the old lady. No, she's fine,

1923
01:37:18,479 --> 01:37:21,200
Speaker 1: an old lady. She's a cool and he and he

1924
01:37:21,320 --> 01:37:24,400
Speaker 1: used to be obsessed with that woman on National Force directional.

1925
01:37:25,000 --> 01:37:31,080
Speaker 1: I said she had a he's got a type. He

1926
01:37:31,240 --> 01:37:33,720
Speaker 1: liked her. Do you guys think you guys disagree with

1927
01:37:33,800 --> 01:37:35,559
Speaker 1: me on that? Can we fight on that? Like? Did

1928
01:37:35,640 --> 01:37:38,920
Speaker 1: Jamie Collins get like Khalil mac money? I missed it

1929
01:37:39,040 --> 01:37:41,120
Speaker 1: or something he didn't like? He was never paid like

1930
01:37:41,200 --> 01:37:43,160
Speaker 1: a super st. Yeah, no, he got, but he got

1931
01:37:43,200 --> 01:37:46,280
Speaker 1: good free agent contract, but it always flamed out for whatever.

1932
01:37:46,320 --> 01:37:50,479
Speaker 1: I mean, he just hadn't had. But I think he

1933
01:37:50,600 --> 01:37:54,559
Speaker 1: played fine. Yeah, and it's hard. He's a little bit

1934
01:37:54,600 --> 01:37:56,080
Speaker 1: of a different cat. Why why do you think he

1935
01:37:56,200 --> 01:37:59,679
Speaker 1: keeps leaving here? Right? Right? He's an odd ball? Yeah,

1936
01:37:59,760 --> 01:38:01,560
Speaker 1: and he's not Yeah, he's not signed. I don't know

1937
01:38:01,560 --> 01:38:04,559
Speaker 1: if football is as important to him as they would

1938
01:38:04,600 --> 01:38:07,320
Speaker 1: like it to be. Right, And It's like every team

1939
01:38:07,360 --> 01:38:10,160
Speaker 1: you're on, there's always guys who are super talented but

1940
01:38:10,280 --> 01:38:13,200
Speaker 1: just weirdos, or guys who aren't all that talented but

1941
01:38:13,280 --> 01:38:16,080
Speaker 1: they love it and they're great leaders and just great guys,

1942
01:38:16,200 --> 01:38:18,720
Speaker 1: and or they're super talented, but there's just something that

1943
01:38:18,840 --> 01:38:23,040
Speaker 1: holds them back from being, you know, seeing their full potential. Yeah,

1944
01:38:23,160 --> 01:38:25,120
Speaker 1: you know, especially like it stinks when it's an injury

1945
01:38:25,320 --> 01:38:27,840
Speaker 1: at that situation where it's like a guy who is, oh,

1946
01:38:27,960 --> 01:38:30,200
Speaker 1: got all this potential, but he just can't seem to

1947
01:38:30,240 --> 01:38:32,320
Speaker 1: stay on. Did I ever tell you about my coffee

1948
01:38:32,360 --> 01:38:36,840
Speaker 1: table book idea on coffee tables? No, it's the four years,

1949
01:38:36,920 --> 01:38:39,160
Speaker 1: fifty million is what he signed with Cleveland. I don't

1950
01:38:39,200 --> 01:38:43,680
Speaker 1: think that's a ridiculous contract. Yeah, it's he could have

1951
01:38:43,760 --> 01:38:47,760
Speaker 1: been cofee right, Yeah, I can tell you about Tony Knnigliaro,

1952
01:38:48,840 --> 01:38:51,760
Speaker 1: Vo Jackson. You know all those guys. Just make it

1953
01:38:51,800 --> 01:38:54,519
Speaker 1: a post like, yeah, both of those guys. Yeah, No,

1954
01:38:54,680 --> 01:38:56,800
Speaker 1: there's a whole there's a whole list of them. You know,

1955
01:38:57,080 --> 01:39:02,000
Speaker 1: all of those guys we do just pat No, it's

1956
01:39:02,040 --> 01:39:07,639
Speaker 1: gotta be everybody. Let's go to kill a sick five

1957
01:39:07,760 --> 01:39:12,400
Speaker 1: five past five hundred Johns in Duxbury. Hey John, Johnny, gentlemen,

1958
01:39:12,439 --> 01:39:15,720
Speaker 1: who are you John? Doing great? Yeah? Well, you know

1959
01:39:15,920 --> 01:39:18,000
Speaker 1: of all the farm you guys touched a couple of

1960
01:39:18,040 --> 01:39:21,120
Speaker 1: minutes ago about the defense being a problem. But I

1961
01:39:21,240 --> 01:39:24,400
Speaker 1: think the real problem is that linebacker. I mean, you've

1962
01:39:24,439 --> 01:39:28,320
Speaker 1: got you done and deadly, and outside of McMillan, who

1963
01:39:28,360 --> 01:39:33,120
Speaker 1: had somewhat of a resume, you've got Jennings, Oochie, Wilson,

1964
01:39:33,240 --> 01:39:36,479
Speaker 1: Perkins and mcgron and not one of them. Isn't a

1965
01:39:36,560 --> 01:39:39,800
Speaker 1: big question mark? You're right, Yep, you're right. I think

1966
01:39:39,840 --> 01:39:43,880
Speaker 1: they're they're rolling the dice there. What's the backup plan

1967
01:39:44,000 --> 01:39:47,320
Speaker 1: for that? If these guys don't work out? I don't

1968
01:39:47,360 --> 01:39:50,360
Speaker 1: think there is one. I think they feel like that

1969
01:39:50,600 --> 01:39:54,080
Speaker 1: group they'll get, they'll get enough guys. You know, you

1970
01:39:54,160 --> 01:39:56,800
Speaker 1: get seven safeties on the field. Well they do have.

1971
01:39:57,040 --> 01:39:58,720
Speaker 1: I mean, I suppose you're right for that's a good point.

1972
01:39:58,720 --> 01:40:00,800
Speaker 1: Why don't you explain that like that? That might be

1973
01:40:00,880 --> 01:40:04,040
Speaker 1: the backup plan is you have the four safeties. You know,

1974
01:40:04,160 --> 01:40:06,320
Speaker 1: if none of those linebackers turns out to be an

1975
01:40:06,320 --> 01:40:09,240
Speaker 1: every down player or a guy that they can rely on,

1976
01:40:09,840 --> 01:40:11,640
Speaker 1: you know, maybe you see a lot more peppers or

1977
01:40:11,680 --> 01:40:14,920
Speaker 1: Phillips just acting as line briers. Yeah, I mean I

1978
01:40:15,000 --> 01:40:20,240
Speaker 1: think that's the one. Yeah, that's what we're just saying.

1979
01:40:20,240 --> 01:40:23,479
Speaker 1: All yeah, all right, thanks, But John, I think that

1980
01:40:23,680 --> 01:40:25,920
Speaker 1: that John's point is is right. I think that's what

1981
01:40:26,000 --> 01:40:29,800
Speaker 1: they're relying on. I wrote that draft weekend. Um. I

1982
01:40:29,920 --> 01:40:31,439
Speaker 1: think on one of the days, I think the day

1983
01:40:31,479 --> 01:40:34,679
Speaker 1: two analysis mean, for better or worse, it's it's time

1984
01:40:34,720 --> 01:40:37,760
Speaker 1: for these guys. We talked about mccrown on Tuesday. He's

1985
01:40:37,800 --> 01:40:41,560
Speaker 1: the smaller, faster type. I'm a little dubious, as I

1986
01:40:41,640 --> 01:40:44,360
Speaker 1: mentioned on Tuesday, of just how fast he is. I know,

1987
01:40:44,680 --> 01:40:47,240
Speaker 1: you know the timed run, you know, uh, you know,

1988
01:40:47,439 --> 01:40:50,479
Speaker 1: is there the time speed? But when I watched them

1989
01:40:50,479 --> 01:40:52,640
Speaker 1: a little bit at Michigan, I didn't see that kind

1990
01:40:52,720 --> 01:40:55,800
Speaker 1: I didn't see a Devin White type kind of you know,

1991
01:40:55,960 --> 01:40:59,519
Speaker 1: even Nakobe Dean you know, watching you know, Georgia this year.

1992
01:40:59,720 --> 01:41:01,880
Speaker 1: So we'll see if he can do that. And then

1993
01:41:02,000 --> 01:41:04,080
Speaker 1: not only that, you know, maybe he was a four

1994
01:41:04,200 --> 01:41:08,160
Speaker 1: four guy. What is he now coming off? Al I

1995
01:41:08,240 --> 01:41:10,280
Speaker 1: just think one of at least two of these guys

1996
01:41:10,360 --> 01:41:12,519
Speaker 1: that he listed off they have to step up and

1997
01:41:12,640 --> 01:41:15,240
Speaker 1: have to be plus NFL players and they're you know,

1998
01:41:15,400 --> 01:41:18,439
Speaker 1: going from essentially young guys who have played a handful

1999
01:41:18,439 --> 01:41:20,880
Speaker 1: of games. Maybe in the best case scenario, you know,

2000
01:41:21,000 --> 01:41:24,840
Speaker 1: Anthony Jennings, those j Perkins, like one of those guys

2001
01:41:24,920 --> 01:41:27,600
Speaker 1: at least at least perfectly too have to step up.

2002
01:41:27,600 --> 01:41:30,920
Speaker 1: I'll give you a friend fred like question like he

2003
01:41:31,080 --> 01:41:37,840
Speaker 1: was doing with Taekwon Thornton. If if Jawan Bentley is

2004
01:41:38,640 --> 01:41:42,360
Speaker 1: a full time starter, is that good or bad? I

2005
01:41:42,439 --> 01:41:44,120
Speaker 1: think he's bad. If it's on third down, I mean,

2006
01:41:44,160 --> 01:41:46,240
Speaker 1: I get him off the field. I mean I think

2007
01:41:46,240 --> 01:41:47,880
Speaker 1: it's fine first second down. I mean I think he

2008
01:41:47,960 --> 01:41:49,799
Speaker 1: needs to be better, he needs to be more consistent.

2009
01:41:49,840 --> 01:41:52,160
Speaker 1: I think he has improved a lot. But you know,

2010
01:41:52,240 --> 01:41:54,160
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be some kind of mixture

2011
01:41:54,200 --> 01:41:56,920
Speaker 1: with with mack Wilson, with Ray Kwa McMillan. I think

2012
01:41:56,960 --> 01:41:58,360
Speaker 1: those are the two guys. Like I said, I mean,

2013
01:41:58,400 --> 01:42:01,880
Speaker 1: everybody wants to talk about Jay look at the veterans first.

2014
01:42:01,960 --> 01:42:04,080
Speaker 1: I think mac Wilson will be next to Bentley. I

2015
01:42:04,160 --> 01:42:07,120
Speaker 1: really do, And I don't have much faith in that,

2016
01:42:07,320 --> 01:42:09,560
Speaker 1: to be honest with you, I think, how could you

2017
01:42:10,320 --> 01:42:11,880
Speaker 1: you know? And I'm just judging. You know, Listen, I

2018
01:42:11,960 --> 01:42:14,360
Speaker 1: know we've had guys that have come here that haven't

2019
01:42:14,400 --> 01:42:18,160
Speaker 1: been terribly successful elsewhere. You know, Kyle van Noy, it's

2020
01:42:18,200 --> 01:42:20,479
Speaker 1: a huge post a child for that, right he was

2021
01:42:20,560 --> 01:42:22,960
Speaker 1: just sort of there in Detroit, came here, he was

2022
01:42:23,000 --> 01:42:25,880
Speaker 1: a full time player for several years, made a lot

2023
01:42:25,920 --> 01:42:29,320
Speaker 1: of plays. I don't know if we can expect that

2024
01:42:29,560 --> 01:42:31,200
Speaker 1: all the time. Right, Well, that's and that's like a

2025
01:42:31,280 --> 01:42:34,040
Speaker 1: complimentary player that feels like it puts you over the top.

2026
01:42:34,120 --> 01:42:36,080
Speaker 1: You know, you had some guys it wasn't like we

2027
01:42:36,160 --> 01:42:38,320
Speaker 1: need Kyle Vannoy to come in here and just be

2028
01:42:38,520 --> 01:42:41,839
Speaker 1: the man. And right now I feel like Rakua McMillan,

2029
01:42:41,880 --> 01:42:43,479
Speaker 1: we need you to be the man. Mac Wilson, we

2030
01:42:43,560 --> 01:42:44,800
Speaker 1: need you to be the man, like you need to

2031
01:42:44,880 --> 01:42:46,840
Speaker 1: come in. Most of the guys they took from other

2032
01:42:46,920 --> 01:42:50,840
Speaker 1: teams and they brought in for a look ended up

2033
01:42:50,840 --> 01:42:53,040
Speaker 1: being similar to what they were with other teams. You know,

2034
01:42:53,160 --> 01:42:56,519
Speaker 1: Kyle van Noy is a to me an exception, not

2035
01:42:56,720 --> 01:43:00,639
Speaker 1: the rule. Like van Noy was a second round quasi

2036
01:43:00,760 --> 01:43:04,439
Speaker 1: bust with Detroit. Came here and he was really good. Yep,

2037
01:43:05,880 --> 01:43:07,720
Speaker 1: Bill and DC writes in there's been a lot of

2038
01:43:07,760 --> 01:43:09,920
Speaker 1: talk about who will call the plays this season for

2039
01:43:10,000 --> 01:43:13,280
Speaker 1: the Patriots, and the biggest concern among some media members

2040
01:43:13,320 --> 01:43:15,920
Speaker 1: seems to be that if it might be Bill himself

2041
01:43:16,479 --> 01:43:19,439
Speaker 1: did some dig I did some digging, and there were

2042
01:43:19,560 --> 01:43:23,320
Speaker 1: thirteen head coaches that called plays last season. Most of

2043
01:43:23,400 --> 01:43:26,960
Speaker 1: them were under fifty, with the best example being Sean McVay,

2044
01:43:27,080 --> 01:43:29,960
Speaker 1: but there were some in their fifties and sixties, most

2045
01:43:30,080 --> 01:43:33,400
Speaker 1: notably Andy Reid at sixty three. What are your thoughts

2046
01:43:33,439 --> 01:43:36,679
Speaker 1: about Bill as a potential play caller? Obviously, he's seen

2047
01:43:36,760 --> 01:43:38,680
Speaker 1: everything there is to see in this league on both

2048
01:43:39,080 --> 01:43:41,719
Speaker 1: offense and defense, and would bring a wealth of knowledge

2049
01:43:41,760 --> 01:43:44,639
Speaker 1: to the position. But at seventy, is it too much

2050
01:43:44,680 --> 01:43:46,960
Speaker 1: to expect him to be able to handle those duties

2051
01:43:47,280 --> 01:43:50,559
Speaker 1: over a seventeen game season. I'd be concerned that he'd

2052
01:43:50,600 --> 01:43:53,439
Speaker 1: wear down trying to do it all, and that would

2053
01:43:53,479 --> 01:43:56,639
Speaker 1: affect the overall performance of the team. No, he needs

2054
01:43:56,640 --> 01:43:58,280
Speaker 1: to be the head coach. He needs to be the

2055
01:43:58,360 --> 01:44:01,400
Speaker 1: head coach who oversees everything and can go where he's

2056
01:44:01,439 --> 01:44:06,320
Speaker 1: needed to go. He can't be enveloped in do it

2057
01:44:06,720 --> 01:44:09,320
Speaker 1: well because maybe they have staffs around them that that

2058
01:44:09,400 --> 01:44:13,519
Speaker 1: can support it better. Perhaps maybe they're coaches who came

2059
01:44:13,600 --> 01:44:16,320
Speaker 1: up that's their thing, you know, John Gruden, Josh mcdandy's

2060
01:44:16,320 --> 01:44:20,120
Speaker 1: are play caller guys, Kyle Shanahan. Um, it's not his thing.

2061
01:44:20,160 --> 01:44:22,880
Speaker 1: I think he's most effective when he's able to hover

2062
01:44:23,000 --> 01:44:24,720
Speaker 1: around and take the big picture of you on things

2063
01:44:24,760 --> 01:44:26,640
Speaker 1: and make the call on you know, when to go

2064
01:44:26,760 --> 01:44:28,680
Speaker 1: for it and all that kind of stuff. So I

2065
01:44:29,360 --> 01:44:30,920
Speaker 1: don't I think it's just gonna be It's gonna be

2066
01:44:31,040 --> 01:44:32,960
Speaker 1: Joe Judge, and I think I think he could do it.

2067
01:44:33,080 --> 01:44:36,280
Speaker 1: He's got the mfant over this. I agree with you,

2068
01:44:36,520 --> 01:44:39,320
Speaker 1: he can't do it. He's gonna have to delegate. You know.

2069
01:44:39,479 --> 01:44:41,880
Speaker 1: If he does do it, he's gonna have to hand

2070
01:44:41,960 --> 01:44:45,120
Speaker 1: over the defense. That's why I don't want somebody, you know,

2071
01:44:45,760 --> 01:44:47,519
Speaker 1: That's why I don't want him do it. I think

2072
01:44:47,560 --> 01:44:49,479
Speaker 1: I think he needs to do it on defense. Yeah,

2073
01:44:49,640 --> 01:44:52,040
Speaker 1: I don't think he'll wear down because he's seventy. I

2074
01:44:52,120 --> 01:44:54,160
Speaker 1: don't think it'll take away from you know, like to

2075
01:44:54,240 --> 01:44:56,559
Speaker 1: Mike's point about I think he's in charge of the team.

2076
01:44:56,560 --> 01:44:58,120
Speaker 1: I don't think that. I don't. I don't worry about

2077
01:44:58,600 --> 01:45:01,000
Speaker 1: the decisions suddenly. Oh no, I wasn't ready for that

2078
01:45:01,040 --> 01:45:03,680
Speaker 1: because I was calling a play. I worry about what

2079
01:45:03,840 --> 01:45:05,760
Speaker 1: happens to the defense if he's not there to put

2080
01:45:05,800 --> 01:45:08,719
Speaker 1: as much effort into what I think again not fact.

2081
01:45:08,880 --> 01:45:12,479
Speaker 1: My opinion that that Dallas game, to me, was the

2082
01:45:12,520 --> 01:45:15,559
Speaker 1: line of demarcation and he said, I can't do this anymore,

2083
01:45:15,880 --> 01:45:18,560
Speaker 1: and he basically took over the defense. That's what I

2084
01:45:18,640 --> 01:45:21,000
Speaker 1: think happened. Now, maybe he won't need to do that

2085
01:45:21,160 --> 01:45:24,280
Speaker 1: this year. Maybe they can get it straightened out, but

2086
01:45:24,800 --> 01:45:26,800
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think he's gonna need to

2087
01:45:27,240 --> 01:45:29,800
Speaker 1: to do that on defense. He can't do that on

2088
01:45:29,960 --> 01:45:32,560
Speaker 1: defense if he's calling players on offense, right, But I

2089
01:45:32,640 --> 01:45:34,439
Speaker 1: do think there's a really good chance that he'll call

2090
01:45:34,520 --> 01:45:39,120
Speaker 1: plays on offense. Um, yeah, I see, I think what

2091
01:45:39,320 --> 01:45:41,479
Speaker 1: I hate about I think he can do it, first

2092
01:45:41,479 --> 01:45:43,680
Speaker 1: of all. But what I hate about the idea is

2093
01:45:43,840 --> 01:45:46,320
Speaker 1: you lose him for the rest of the teams, like

2094
01:45:46,400 --> 01:45:49,519
Speaker 1: how many how often, whether it's offense or defense or

2095
01:45:49,760 --> 01:45:52,080
Speaker 1: what you know, he turns his back to the field

2096
01:45:52,160 --> 01:45:55,479
Speaker 1: and he's with that group talking about adjustments or something

2097
01:45:55,560 --> 01:45:57,960
Speaker 1: that he saw or that's fine, you know, like you say,

2098
01:45:58,040 --> 01:46:02,479
Speaker 1: like like the thirteen other players, why can't you know

2099
01:46:02,600 --> 01:46:04,880
Speaker 1: the thirteen other coaches? None of them have to run

2100
01:46:04,920 --> 01:46:08,280
Speaker 1: their defense too. Right, that's my point. I think he

2101
01:46:08,360 --> 01:46:10,040
Speaker 1: can run the team. I think he can turn around

2102
01:46:10,040 --> 01:46:11,800
Speaker 1: and talk to the offense, just like he turned around

2103
01:46:11,840 --> 01:46:14,760
Speaker 1: and talked to the defense at times. Right, he had

2104
01:46:14,840 --> 01:46:16,919
Speaker 1: us back to the game many times, I can guarantee

2105
01:46:16,960 --> 01:46:19,719
Speaker 1: you that. But he can't do both on those thirteen teams.

2106
01:46:19,800 --> 01:46:21,400
Speaker 1: And you know, I'm not an expert. I don't know

2107
01:46:21,439 --> 01:46:23,000
Speaker 1: all the names, but I'll bet you on most of

2108
01:46:23,080 --> 01:46:26,400
Speaker 1: them where the coach is calling the plays was an

2109
01:46:26,439 --> 01:46:31,040
Speaker 1: experienced defensive coordinator. Yeah, Like that's that's Sean mcvay's thing, right,

2110
01:46:31,560 --> 01:46:33,960
Speaker 1: that's why you Originally he got Wade Phillips to make

2111
01:46:34,000 --> 01:46:37,400
Speaker 1: sure he had a strong veteran presence. Now Wade Phillips

2112
01:46:37,520 --> 01:46:40,599
Speaker 1: is gone now. But yeah, I also think people make

2113
01:46:40,640 --> 01:46:42,719
Speaker 1: it out to be so cut and dry, like builds

2114
01:46:42,760 --> 01:46:44,920
Speaker 1: the head coach. He's on the headset, Like he doesn't

2115
01:46:44,960 --> 01:46:46,640
Speaker 1: have to be holding the card and talking to the

2116
01:46:46,720 --> 01:46:50,280
Speaker 1: quarterback to be calling the plays. He can say, hey, Joe,

2117
01:46:50,640 --> 01:46:52,760
Speaker 1: let's go in this direction with these Let's let's try

2118
01:46:52,760 --> 01:46:54,960
Speaker 1: to go this, you know, and continue to take in

2119
01:46:55,040 --> 01:46:56,720
Speaker 1: the big picture, we're gonna run it here, right, but

2120
01:46:56,840 --> 01:46:58,640
Speaker 1: but not have to be like in the weeds of

2121
01:46:58,720 --> 01:47:01,800
Speaker 1: like or fifteen seconds, let's go. It's a strong right,

2122
01:47:01,840 --> 01:47:04,040
Speaker 1: you know that reading off the play I agree those

2123
01:47:04,040 --> 01:47:06,040
Speaker 1: because those two things aren't the same. I agree with you,

2124
01:47:06,320 --> 01:47:08,400
Speaker 1: there's there there's some nuance to it that I think

2125
01:47:08,680 --> 01:47:11,840
Speaker 1: is lost a little bit on how play calling works.

2126
01:47:11,920 --> 01:47:14,200
Speaker 1: And as we touched on last show too, though, it's

2127
01:47:14,200 --> 01:47:16,360
Speaker 1: always such a buzz thing for fans of like the

2128
01:47:16,479 --> 01:47:18,439
Speaker 1: offense of the play calling. You know who people get

2129
01:47:18,479 --> 01:47:21,600
Speaker 1: so mad in Max ear? Yeah, I think it'll be

2130
01:47:21,680 --> 01:47:23,280
Speaker 1: Joe Judge and that's who it is right now, and

2131
01:47:23,439 --> 01:47:27,960
Speaker 1: I think he'll be throughout. Is Bill chiming in and situations?

2132
01:47:27,960 --> 01:47:29,559
Speaker 1: I probably? I bet he did it with Josh too.

2133
01:47:29,680 --> 01:47:32,080
Speaker 1: Of hey, let's think about this here, those kind of

2134
01:47:32,160 --> 01:47:34,800
Speaker 1: things of of guiding the offense and not necessarily being

2135
01:47:34,800 --> 01:47:39,519
Speaker 1: in the weeds of the quarterback communication run out right

2136
01:47:39,720 --> 01:47:41,519
Speaker 1: right right, all right, all right? Watch the bundle linebacker

2137
01:47:41,600 --> 01:47:42,960
Speaker 1: on this one. You know they're gonna drop out. No,

2138
01:47:43,120 --> 01:47:45,439
Speaker 1: no disrespect to the ind call, but we're going out

2139
01:47:45,439 --> 01:47:47,640
Speaker 1: all right, right right. I Meanwhile, they're like culture, they

2140
01:47:47,720 --> 01:47:49,240
Speaker 1: just walk right down the field on defense. What are

2141
01:47:49,280 --> 01:47:50,720
Speaker 1: we supposed to do? Just tell them to do their job?

2142
01:47:50,840 --> 01:47:52,880
Speaker 1: I'm we're working on my offense here, you know, like

2143
01:47:53,000 --> 01:47:55,400
Speaker 1: that's that's not gonna happen. Tell them to do their job,

2144
01:47:58,000 --> 01:48:01,200
Speaker 1: Alex and Pentucket. Uh, just wanted to touch on something

2145
01:48:01,280 --> 01:48:05,080
Speaker 1: Paul mentioned in an earlier show. I'm still really concerned

2146
01:48:05,240 --> 01:48:07,479
Speaker 1: that this defense will get run all over. There was

2147
01:48:07,600 --> 01:48:10,240
Speaker 1: minimal change to the front seven, and we didn't take

2148
01:48:10,360 --> 01:48:13,720
Speaker 1: one of the top linebackers. Do you all believe that

2149
01:48:13,840 --> 01:48:16,320
Speaker 1: the run defense is our weakest point on defense or

2150
01:48:16,439 --> 01:48:20,200
Speaker 1: is it still corner? Also for content purposes, I would

2151
01:48:20,240 --> 01:48:23,280
Speaker 1: pay for seeing the PU crew versus Patriots coaching in

2152
01:48:23,400 --> 01:48:26,680
Speaker 1: athletic challenges. That would be sight to see Brown, and

2153
01:48:26,720 --> 01:48:29,639
Speaker 1: I've got my money on the PU coach. Something outside

2154
01:48:29,680 --> 01:48:32,360
Speaker 1: of football could be fun. You have seeing Troy Brown.

2155
01:48:33,640 --> 01:48:37,240
Speaker 1: He's still we lost Andy. He was like most of

2156
01:48:37,280 --> 01:48:40,519
Speaker 1: them are young, yeah, right, Like Pellegrino played like d

2157
01:48:40,640 --> 01:48:43,240
Speaker 1: one lacrosse right there and they and they like run

2158
01:48:43,320 --> 01:48:45,240
Speaker 1: out to practice, they run across the field. I mean

2159
01:48:45,240 --> 01:48:47,080
Speaker 1: they're running old. We're just sitting on It's the only

2160
01:48:47,160 --> 01:48:50,320
Speaker 1: one I could compete with, right. Joe Judge is a

2161
01:48:50,360 --> 01:48:53,400
Speaker 1: big dude too, Yeah, I mean they're all twenty years

2162
01:48:53,520 --> 01:48:54,960
Speaker 1: must want to get it. Unless we want to get

2163
01:48:54,960 --> 01:48:56,760
Speaker 1: going with hockey, then let's get him out there. All

2164
01:48:57,000 --> 01:49:00,400
Speaker 1: we get Mayo stack if we get to Choo, was like,

2165
01:49:00,600 --> 01:49:04,760
Speaker 1: what it is like you do something hockey? Maybe I could,

2166
01:49:04,840 --> 01:49:08,559
Speaker 1: I don't know, I haven't played tennis. Maybe throw throw

2167
01:49:08,600 --> 01:49:13,640
Speaker 1: batting practice, you know, something like that. Paul striking out

2168
01:49:13,680 --> 01:49:16,439
Speaker 1: Matt Patricia. I'm here for it. I'm here for Belichick

2169
01:49:16,479 --> 01:49:20,040
Speaker 1: in Patricia, I could compete with both of them. Brian

2170
01:49:20,120 --> 01:49:23,200
Speaker 1: from the Bay Area, Uh, you should be able to

2171
01:49:23,320 --> 01:49:26,840
Speaker 1: argue about mac Jones. At various times, Paul Is called

2172
01:49:26,920 --> 01:49:30,120
Speaker 1: mac Jones short, fat, too small, too slow, and proclaimed

2173
01:49:30,160 --> 01:49:33,160
Speaker 1: that he does not have an NFL caliber arm. He's

2174
01:49:33,200 --> 01:49:36,280
Speaker 1: basically saying that the Patriots will never go anywhere until

2175
01:49:36,320 --> 01:49:38,519
Speaker 1: they dump Mac and find someone else. By the way,

2176
01:49:38,680 --> 01:49:42,120
Speaker 1: I kind of agree with him, right, And Mike is

2177
01:49:42,280 --> 01:49:44,800
Speaker 1: higher on mac Jones than I am. I am too,

2178
01:49:44,960 --> 01:49:47,920
Speaker 1: but not strongly. But I'm not banging the drum then, right,

2179
01:49:48,040 --> 01:49:50,320
Speaker 1: He's the guy forever, no questions asked. I think he's

2180
01:49:50,320 --> 01:49:51,800
Speaker 1: got a lot to prove. I do. That's why I

2181
01:49:51,880 --> 01:49:54,519
Speaker 1: sit down the road. That's something I think that we

2182
01:49:54,560 --> 01:49:57,040
Speaker 1: should do. I am fine, but I'm gonna I'm gonna

2183
01:49:57,080 --> 01:50:01,160
Speaker 1: I'll give you the spoiler alert if he has, like

2184
01:50:01,800 --> 01:50:04,000
Speaker 1: you know, a meteoric rise this year. I'm not going

2185
01:50:04,040 --> 01:50:05,760
Speaker 1: to be the guy that says no, no, no, he

2186
01:50:05,880 --> 01:50:08,840
Speaker 1: still sucks. Yeah, well, he's just limited. He can't know.

2187
01:50:09,360 --> 01:50:12,920
Speaker 1: Then he's Brady. Then he overcomes his physical shortcomings with

2188
01:50:13,040 --> 01:50:15,880
Speaker 1: his mental acuity and he becomes a better quarterback as

2189
01:50:15,920 --> 01:50:18,439
Speaker 1: a result. Right, And I'll admit that much like I

2190
01:50:18,479 --> 01:50:22,400
Speaker 1: did with Brady. Yeah, I'm perfectly fine with Mac. Yeah,

2191
01:50:22,520 --> 01:50:23,760
Speaker 1: me too. I mean it goes back to what I

2192
01:50:23,800 --> 01:50:26,400
Speaker 1: said last week. I love everything he is, a great

2193
01:50:26,400 --> 01:50:28,519
Speaker 1: way to put it, I'm perfectly fine with it too. Yeah,

2194
01:50:28,560 --> 01:50:30,400
Speaker 1: I love everything he is off the field in terms

2195
01:50:30,439 --> 01:50:32,760
Speaker 1: of his dedication to the team, is focused, the way

2196
01:50:32,800 --> 01:50:35,240
Speaker 1: that he came in, the way he competes, the way

2197
01:50:35,280 --> 01:50:38,680
Speaker 1: he bounces back from tough situations. But I think there

2198
01:50:38,720 --> 01:50:41,240
Speaker 1: are certainly questions and and and the other part of

2199
01:50:41,280 --> 01:50:43,200
Speaker 1: it that that people are mentioning is that it's a

2200
01:50:43,280 --> 01:50:45,519
Speaker 1: blood bath in the league right now. Like he's got

2201
01:50:45,600 --> 01:50:47,960
Speaker 1: to beat Josh Allen like he can be. He could

2202
01:50:47,960 --> 01:50:51,160
Speaker 1: be a plus quarterback and still not lead his team

2203
01:50:51,160 --> 01:50:53,200
Speaker 1: to victory over over what the Bills are right now.

2204
01:50:53,280 --> 01:50:55,519
Speaker 1: So it's a huge task and I just I don't

2205
01:50:55,520 --> 01:50:57,160
Speaker 1: feel it's fair to him till all of a sudden

2206
01:50:57,520 --> 01:50:59,720
Speaker 1: carve out my area And this is it. I you know,

2207
01:51:00,080 --> 01:51:02,360
Speaker 1: this is the guy, Like you got to let him

2208
01:51:02,360 --> 01:51:03,720
Speaker 1: prove it, and then when he does prove it, then

2209
01:51:03,760 --> 01:51:06,679
Speaker 1: then give him credit for it. Absolutely, and I will. Yeah.

2210
01:51:07,120 --> 01:51:10,080
Speaker 1: Chris from Virginia, hearing Paul talk about Cougars, I had

2211
01:51:10,120 --> 01:51:13,160
Speaker 1: to write in my thoughts about the coaching staff. I

2212
01:51:13,280 --> 01:51:16,120
Speaker 1: have concerns over the offensive coaching staff, but not because

2213
01:51:16,160 --> 01:51:18,920
Speaker 1: they haven't named an OC. Even if they name one,

2214
01:51:19,000 --> 01:51:21,400
Speaker 1: my concerns would be the same. There's not a lot

2215
01:51:21,479 --> 01:51:23,920
Speaker 1: of experience, and with Mac going into a second year,

2216
01:51:24,000 --> 01:51:28,160
Speaker 1: the decision to not have someone experienced an offense is concerning.

2217
01:51:28,439 --> 01:51:31,520
Speaker 1: I just hope for consistency with Mac and his development.

2218
01:51:31,960 --> 01:51:37,799
Speaker 1: All right, Like I know, I again, Yeah, what happens?

2219
01:51:38,160 --> 01:51:40,679
Speaker 1: Did you talk about Cougar? Yeah? No, I mentioned Cougars,

2220
01:51:40,760 --> 01:51:43,920
Speaker 1: but I thought we were talking about and then I

2221
01:51:43,960 --> 01:51:47,280
Speaker 1: think he did a non sequitor. But anyway, um, listen,

2222
01:51:47,360 --> 01:51:52,880
Speaker 1: I know people are really dumping on Patricia and Joe Judge,

2223
01:51:52,920 --> 01:51:55,000
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna go back to the fact that they

2224
01:51:55,040 --> 01:51:58,160
Speaker 1: were NFL head coaches, and that experience is worth something.

2225
01:51:58,720 --> 01:52:02,639
Speaker 1: And like good or bad, Joe Judge has experience with offense.

2226
01:52:02,800 --> 01:52:05,920
Speaker 1: He does. He played quarterback, he does. What what is

2227
01:52:06,000 --> 01:52:08,759
Speaker 1: that he's played in any any as a head coach,

2228
01:52:09,560 --> 01:52:14,040
Speaker 1: you know, and like these guys like it was a

2229
01:52:14,120 --> 01:52:17,679
Speaker 1: special team or at Mississippi State in like fifth quarterback

2230
01:52:17,720 --> 01:52:19,679
Speaker 1: on the depth shop. But he played special teams. Okay,

2231
01:52:19,760 --> 01:52:22,680
Speaker 1: he was the punt protector. But like he didn't get

2232
01:52:23,000 --> 01:52:25,919
Speaker 1: get his coaching resume out, like he coached wide receivers

2233
01:52:26,000 --> 01:52:28,920
Speaker 1: and special teams one year. Okay, but that's not an

2234
01:52:28,960 --> 01:52:32,000
Speaker 1: experience as an offensive coordinator. I don't know. I didn't

2235
01:52:32,000 --> 01:52:34,080
Speaker 1: say I said an offense. I didn't. It's not really

2236
01:52:34,600 --> 01:52:37,960
Speaker 1: any like discernible experience as an offense. The email has said,

2237
01:52:38,120 --> 01:52:40,679
Speaker 1: regardless of whether who they name always see I would,

2238
01:52:40,880 --> 01:52:43,880
Speaker 1: he said, he, I'd still be worried because there's not

2239
01:52:44,000 --> 01:52:48,160
Speaker 1: of a lot of experience on the offensive side and coaches. Yeah,

2240
01:52:48,600 --> 01:52:52,200
Speaker 1: I mean in his entire career he coached partially part

2241
01:52:52,320 --> 01:52:56,280
Speaker 1: time one year an offensive position. So there's not a

2242
01:52:56,320 --> 01:52:59,720
Speaker 1: lot of experience on the offensive coaching staff. Does that

2243
01:52:59,800 --> 01:53:01,680

2244
01:53:01,720 --> 01:53:03,680

2245
01:53:03,800 --> 01:53:07,800
Speaker 1: fact they're not experienced offensive coaches. I think he's an

2246

2248
01:53:14,760 --> 01:53:19,880
Speaker 1: think he can coach offense. That's a leap, yeah, but

2249
01:53:20,160 --> 01:53:21,960
Speaker 1: but leaps have been made in coaching though. I mean,

Speaker 1: coach a team that took two defensive guys and made

2254
01:53:35,160 --> 01:53:37,759
Speaker 1: them offensive, cordinal, there's no comp and you know, winning

2320
01:57:21,000 --> 01:57:22,840
Speaker 1: I remember we had a rolling blackout one time and

2321
01:57:22,920 --> 01:57:25,880
Speaker 1: we just listened to this girl break up with her boyfriend. Um,

2322
01:57:26,040 --> 01:57:28,840
Speaker 1: she also had two yappy Pomeranian dogs that would just

2323
01:57:29,000 --> 01:57:31,720
Speaker 1: how did you listen to that? It was? It was

2324
01:57:32,120 --> 01:57:34,360
Speaker 1: it wasn't even like so, you know, the powers out,

2325
01:57:34,440 --> 01:57:37,760
Speaker 1: so there's no we can't watch TV. So it's quiet,

2326
01:57:37,800 --> 01:57:40,080
Speaker 1: and there's maybe four feet between our building and theirs,

2327
01:57:40,120 --> 01:57:42,400
Speaker 1: and you could just you know, hear this girl tearing.

2328
01:57:43,080 --> 01:57:45,600
Speaker 1: The boyfriend's like hard out, you know, just and he

2329
01:57:45,800 --> 01:57:47,680
Speaker 1: was like, what do I have to do? And me

2330
01:57:47,760 --> 01:57:50,120
Speaker 1: and Lane are just sitting there like listen, we got

2331
01:57:50,200 --> 01:57:53,080
Speaker 1: nothing else to do, but they but but the dogs

2332
01:57:53,120 --> 01:57:56,000
Speaker 1: bothered our neighbor, who was this old, angry, angry guy

2333
01:57:56,600 --> 01:57:58,280
Speaker 1: who lived next door to us. And so what he

2334
01:57:58,400 --> 01:58:01,040
Speaker 1: did in retaliation was we start to just put like

2335
01:58:01,160 --> 01:58:04,160
Speaker 1: I don't know if it was Japanese Korean radio. He

2336
01:58:04,200 --> 01:58:06,920
Speaker 1: would just put like AM radio with whatever it is,

2337
01:58:07,000 --> 01:58:10,320
Speaker 1: like Korean and blasted out his window into her apartment

2338
01:58:10,440 --> 01:58:13,360
Speaker 1: as like psychological warfare. So we were well, but then

2339
01:58:13,400 --> 01:58:16,280
Speaker 1: we got you know, we were we got the crossfire,

2340
01:58:16,360 --> 01:58:17,720
Speaker 1: We get caught and we gotta listen to you know,

2341
01:58:17,920 --> 01:58:22,040
Speaker 1: just this AM radio channel on blasts. So, m that's

2342
01:58:22,080 --> 01:58:24,480
Speaker 1: the first random thing. I don't know what else. Yeah,

2343
01:58:24,600 --> 01:58:27,360
Speaker 1: I'm sure I'd have to think about it, but I

2344
01:58:27,560 --> 01:58:29,080
Speaker 1: and then I'd have to think what can I say

2345
01:58:29,120 --> 01:58:32,600
Speaker 1: without getting sued? But you know, I've had some oddball

2346
01:58:32,920 --> 01:58:35,320
Speaker 1: interactions with people. I'm a little concerned. I saw my

2347
