He's just, uh, 18 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,680 Speaker 1: I don't know what he's doing, but he's he's late Boston. 19 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,759 Speaker 1: Things he's tardy. He is tardy, but I'm Eric Scollovino. 20 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,680 Speaker 1: Paul Perillo might do so, Matt Morrell behind the glass producing. Uh, 21 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,919 Speaker 1: it is a Thursday here at Toilette Stadium, an offseason thursday, 22 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:34,640 Speaker 1: a college hoops Thursday in March. So we got a 23 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: little distractions going on on our screens, but not for me. Yeah, 24 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,320 Speaker 1: because you annoyed it. What is the sport with the 25 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 1: bucket in the balls and the things? Uh, but there's 26 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: some NFL news going on. Not a lot of Patriots 27 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: directly related, not yet, but it's kind Yeah. You think 28 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:56,279 Speaker 1: you think the storm's coming, it's always coming. Yeah, get ready, 29 00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: got ready. I feel like it's uh comput trading. As 30 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: we were talking upstairs, it's um the tampering period Monday. 31 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: It's it's just silly. It's supposed to open Wednesday, but 32 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: you basically just moved to open up to Monday. So 33 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,639 Speaker 1: I assume there'll be some some some stuff going down, 34 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: you know. So do you think it starts now? It 35 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 1: might tampering period, right, it always right, the tampering period 36 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: gets the real tamper. Like the first day of the 37 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,359 Speaker 1: tampering period, all the news comes out. So obviously they've 38 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 1: been tampering before the tampering period. I think we're probably 39 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,519 Speaker 1: tampering an Indian from what I was hearing it in 40 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 1: that's the legal tampering period. Right. Oh yeah, you're still 41 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,679 Speaker 1: you're still running that I'm gonna work? Are any still 42 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 1: working that? Are you? But yeah, I mean around the league. 43 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: The big news from yesterday, I guess was Carson Wentz. Yeah, 44 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: another year, another command, another another team. Were you hearing 45 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: are you hearing that about the talking to people? I 46 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: didn't hear anything about Carson Wentz. No, but wasn't wasn't that, 47 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: PAULI wasn't that last week when we were when Fred 48 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:58,639 Speaker 1: was asking us, you know, it seems like all these 49 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 1: coaches are you know, talking openly about that was another example, right, 50 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 1: Frank Reich was basically telling you what you wanted to 51 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:13,679 Speaker 1: know about Carson Wentz. No u B no, no phony endorsement. Nope. Right, 52 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,239 Speaker 1: there was no like, oh yeah, he's our guy, We're coup. 53 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: He had a lot of nice things to say about 54 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz, but in no way did he say he 55 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: was coming back. Yeah, he didn't walk away from those 56 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,399 Speaker 1: reports that had already been out there about wentz being 57 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 1: on the block, and I just I know that I'm 58 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: believe me. I know I'm obnoxious. Okay, I get it, 59 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 1: I get it. Okay, I'm like adult toothache when there 60 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: are little things that I believe in that other people don't. Okay, 61 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: let's go to the map for what is it you 62 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: called the salary cat? The salary all right, right right? 63 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: The salary cap? You know, you guys know you know 64 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: I'm cap is crap. I'm sort of on an island 65 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: on it. So this is now. This was an untradeable contract, okay, 66 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: this time last year was an untradeable contract. Ye that's 67 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: now been traded twice, the same contract twice. Okay, again, 68 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: I don't want to hear you talk about that stuff. 69 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: Talk about money. Money is real, Budgets are real. How 70 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 1: much teams are willing to spend? That's real. The cap 71 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: is not. Yeah doesn't that doesn't run. You're gonna make 72 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: You're gonna have one million on the cap this year, 73 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 1: seventy million on the cab. Next you can, oh, we 74 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,280 Speaker 1: can't trade it, and then you're stuck. You can't trade 75 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: Oh wait, they trade it. Oh wait, they got like 76 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: a two and a three yeah, what I think. The 77 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 1: crazy thing to me was watching this year a little 78 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: bit of that in season Hard Knocks that they did 79 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: with the Colts, and they spend a lot of time 80 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: focusing on the relationship of Frank Wright and Carson Wentz, 81 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: and you know, the how did it come across? At 82 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 1: the time, it seemed like they were like star cross 83 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: lovers who were just meant to be together in the NFL. 84 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:56,919 Speaker 1: And during the we shared the same Bible Verse, like 85 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: we had we we we finished each other's Bible Verse 86 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: like if they they were like that, And it just 87 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: shows how quickly things can change. And I guess it's weird, 88 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,160 Speaker 1: a little bit weird for me, just and I and 89 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 1: I totally get the Carson Wentz of it all. I'm 90 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,160 Speaker 1: not impressed with him, but you know, at least coming 91 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: out of that game against the Patriots with Indie where 92 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 1: Indie just hammered them, Not that Carson Wentz was part 93 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: of that really all in that game, but still like 94 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: he came out of that game being like Indie Indie 95 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: pretty good. They got a pretty good defense, they make plays, 96 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: they got a great running back. I know where you're going, 97 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 1: and I don't know the thing on the list of 98 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 1: things that concerned me. Yeah, but it just shows how 99 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: hard it is to get the guy. And I guess 100 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 1: in a way, I I credit them for knowing not 101 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: the guy, move on and and even though they're tossing 102 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,160 Speaker 1: themselves into the into the mix right now, which it's 103 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: not a great year in the draft for quarterbacks. There's 104 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: not Russell Wilson's been, Aaron Rodgers. They're all settled, so 105 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: they they're they're jumping into it a little bit. So 106 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 1: I do respect that. As far the Colts, we'll see 107 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: what they end up with. I find it almost impossible 108 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: if they won't have an upgrade. I really, I really do. 109 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 1: Probably Yeah, Okay, Well, I mean I think they'll get somebody, 110 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: even if it's not Jimmy Garoppolo, which seems to be 111 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 1: all signs pointing in that direction. Jill get still get somebody. Well, 112 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 1: do you get rid of that? Do you get rid 113 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 1: of Wentz the way they did without the plan correct place? 114 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think you have a plan 115 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 1: for Well, so we'll get somebody. You know that's otherwise 116 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: known as the paper, but it's always become available. But 117 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 1: I mean it sure was, you know, the shoes just 118 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: things just start dropping, and that it seems like they 119 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: realize that things are moving and now's the time to 120 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: do it. Um. I maybe they wish they had done 121 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: it sooner, but I mean, I poor poor commanders. I've 122 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 1: had to think of what their name was there for 123 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 1: saying umic movie. You know, Russell Wilson kind of spurns 124 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 1: them and then you see the reaction not not great 125 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: from Washington. They could sign Newton be the commanders's probably 126 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 1: pitching that to him right now. Listen, hear me out, 127 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 1: hear me out, hear me out. He's out there. The 128 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: one thing I love I would say about Carson Wentz 129 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 1: that it would certainly seem based on how quickly Frank Reich, 130 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: who is a strong UM advocate for Carson Wentz, how 131 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: quickly he soured. I would say the reports in Philly 132 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: were accurate, the behind the scenes reports of him being 133 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: difficult and really odd, based on how quickly it soured 134 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: an indie because on the surface he didn't have a 135 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: terrible year, right right, that he was terrible in certain games, 136 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 1: one of which was the Patriots game, and one of 137 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: which was the game that cost costing the playoffs. At Jacksonville. 138 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 1: But twenty seven and seven, I mean I think that 139 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: people would say if if Mac puts that up next year, 140 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: I think people will be thrilled. I mean, he had 141 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: twenty seven touchdowns and seven picks. That was the one 142 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: you came over to my desk and I was like, what, yeah, 143 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: is this right? Is this right? But again, I'm very 144 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: consistent with this. Watch the games. Don't just look at 145 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: a spreadsheet. Watch the game. He didn't play well, right, 146 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: and he didn't have a good year, and in particular 147 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: moments he was just not not just average, he was bad. 148 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: I don't think I don't think, uh, he's as bad 149 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: as Wentz. But in moments, it's the same thing with Garoppolo, 150 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: you know, like in moments like this is not the 151 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: guy that much better than I said. He wasn't as 152 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 1: bad as Wentz, But I don't problem the problem with 153 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: Jimmy is the moments, and I think it's the opposite. 154 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: I think Garoppolo is better in moments. That's when he 155 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: plays as well. He has more moments he'll he'll throw 156 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:35,559 Speaker 1: like a couple of picks, and then all of a 157 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: sudden it's the fourth quarter and he goes and lead 158 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: the game in Cincinnati. This year was like an example 159 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 1: of that. Yeah, Like he was unbelievable in the overtime, 160 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 1: but he kind of gets it to that point where 161 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 1: he has to do you know what I mean, he 162 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 1: makes it hard for himself. Oh, I think he's a 163 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: little inconsistent. Wentz is bad. Yeah, kind of like right, Oh, 164 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 1: I would fight him. Now we're fighting. So I like 165 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 1: to just verbally spar with Fred like that. That's that's 166 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: sporting to me. Verbally sparring with Fred and people. You 167 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 1: talk about, my boy? What else did I miss? We 168 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 1: just were just jump We're talking about you know another, 169 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: you know another in a week full of you know, 170 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: sort of big news in the league, and we didn't 171 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 1: even talk about Jerry Jones yet. Yeah. Yeah, continuing the 172 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: big news daddy, what's going on in that bus twenty 173 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 1: five years ago? Like you found that glory? Uh? Really 174 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: now that's uh, it's gonna be busy week. I mean 175 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,319 Speaker 1: this is uh. I feel like we're on the precipice 176 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 1: of Yeah, and the reshaping of the AFC with Russell 177 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: Wilson now in the conference. Yea, the West, it's gonna 178 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: be Uh, that's good. I mean, I I'd like to see, 179 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: you know, good teams challenged. I mean I think it's uh, 180 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: the AFC East during the Patriots run certainly never was 181 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: that like that. So how does Josh handle it? I 182 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: mean it's funny because you look at Cassario goes to 183 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: Houston and all of a sudden, this all happens. Josh 184 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 1: goes to Vegas, Bill can I come back? And though 185 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: I enjoyed my time, that's another one on the list 186 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:24,599 Speaker 1: of things that don't really I don't feel like I 187 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 1: excited about my future in Las Vegas. I don't feel 188 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: like I I fall into the group think with the 189 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: whole Uh well, why would you take that job? You know, 190 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: look at the court like those teams are good in 191 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,439 Speaker 1: that divis I'm not a big yeah like like no, 192 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: it's to me that the factors no. And I know 193 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: I'm not saying in terms of what you just said, 194 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: because I agree obviously a little bit. The job is 195 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 1: tougher today. I mean that's undeniable. I'm not, you know, 196 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 1: you know, an anti truther like you added another good 197 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 1: team to the division, right, Um. But to me, when 198 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: you're taking your job, you're looking at the structure of 199 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 1: the organization. You know, your potential relationship with the owner 200 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,719 Speaker 1: who has to say you know what what what kind 201 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: of power do you have? Your ability to formulate your 202 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,319 Speaker 1: roster in the players that you have to work right, 203 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: and you're not necessarily saying I'm not going to all 204 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: those things now Russell Wilson's going to Denver. In additional, Patrick, 205 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 1: I can't control the other teams, I can really control mine. 206 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 1: And by the way, Russell Wilson could tear his ACL 207 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: in week one and now everything changes back, you know. 208 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: So yes, I agree with Paul. You can you go 209 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: into it with what you can't control and you don't 210 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: worry about the other teams? Yeah, no, this division is 211 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 1: harder than that. Well, certainly don't worry about it now 212 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: for them, Yeah yeah, when when it's your week to 213 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: play that team, then you're worried if you think Vegas 214 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: is the right place for you, because you know that's 215 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 1: then's my point, like, I would never take or not 216 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 1: take a job based on the competition within the division, 217 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: right because that's so cyclical, right, and that just tells 218 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 1: you something about the person. If that's that's how you 219 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 1: do with that, unless it's hard to top, like you 220 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: already knew going in. You got my homes and you 221 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 1: also got her young Justin Herbert is going to be 222 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: there for a while too, so he knew going in. 223 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: I just overall, it's, uh, it's just a tough can. 224 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 1: It's just a really tough division. There's no easy game, 225 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: especially when talk Drew Locke, like you know that jump 226 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, it's like the weapons 227 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: all come into focus with what Russell Wilson has. The 228 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: the air density up there, he's gonna be throwing at 229 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 1: eighty five. Ye your density. But but remember when we 230 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: were talking about, you know, his wife wants to go 231 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 1: to New York and you know so that was all BS. Yeah, 232 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: it was all B. Well, she might want to go 233 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: to New York, but you know that team doesn't care 234 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: about that, like we're gonna trade you to where we're 235 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: gonna get the most. They probably went to most the 236 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: state they could without I think we've learned with this 237 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 1: his wife. So these high profile quarterbacks and their wives 238 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: that doesn't really matter and their high profile wives. Yeah, 239 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: all right, eight five five past five hundred is the 240 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,719 Speaker 1: ticket hotline web radio at Patriots dot com. Is he 241 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 1: mal address um. What else is out there? Uh? I 242 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:08,079 Speaker 1: was gonna just bring up the Gard report. What was 243 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: the word they use? Excessive research? Excessive research at that 244 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: that that word bumps me? How do you do? Does? Like? 245 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: What does that mean? One? Like? I would assume the 246 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: Patriots are generally excessive, probably about most things anyway, But 247 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,679 Speaker 1: there's just something So for those who don't know, Mike 248 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: jrd reported the Patriots been doing excessive homework on receiver 249 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: group like Alan Robinson was the name that he mentioned, 250 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: um as well as the linebacker group was it was another. 251 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,839 Speaker 1: But I don't know. I just everything that comes out 252 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: this week, I feel like is kind of influenced by sure, 253 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 1: you know, as a chatter and you know, as a rule. 254 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: I just always think the Patriots kind of reach out 255 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 1: and talk about everybody and they and just because you 256 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,439 Speaker 1: find that one nugget, oh, well, they kicked the tires 257 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: on Robbie Anderson? How many other guys did they probably 258 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: kick tires on? While I are indy, I assume it's 259 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: more than just Robbie Anderson, So but I just the 260 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 1: excessive thing stood out to me. We'll see if they 261 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,840 Speaker 1: sign a big name wide receiver like a Marii Cooper. 262 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,080 Speaker 1: I personally don't really think it's going to happen, but um, 263 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: I know that that stuff's like red meat for fans 264 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:17,959 Speaker 1: who are all up my mentions like we need a 265 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: number one, get back a number one, that's all they need, 266 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: all open my mentions.

You know, sometimes you got to 275 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: make something out of something, you know, out of nothing, 276 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: and this is you know, and I love Mike. This 277 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: seems like one of those reports, like a couple they've 278 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 1: they've really done a lot of work on He picked 279 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 1: the use of the word what I got.

It 284 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: could be you know, No, there's a fine line between 285 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 1: extensive and excess. But what I really want to know 286 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: is what Paul thinks about Peter Kiss. We were just 287 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 1: talking about him. We were just talking about that. He's 288 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 1: a Bran. Bran basically incited a brawl at his team's 289 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: conference championship win. They're going to the NCAA's and they 290 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 1: were blowing the team out. He's a terrific player. He's 291 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: like one of the highest scoring. He is the nation's 292 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 1: highest score is. Yeah, he's really good. Everybody he's like, 293 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 1: you know, five years older than everybody's playing with. But right, 294 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: he's a six years six year six years started at Quinnipiac, 295 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: transferred to run and then uh and then transferred over 296 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 1: to Brant in the rounds. Yeah, is that? It's the 297 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 1: way is the leading scorer just the injury this year? Yeah? 298 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: The country? Yeah? Yeah, wow, something to watch then in 299 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 1: the NC double if I don't think probably not yeah. 300 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 1: Um okay, so that's it. That's yeah. We didn't really 301 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 1: get into the Jerry thing men. Yeah, I mean, what 302 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 1: is it? You know? And then um scandal. I still 303 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 1: am you know, UM kind of baffled by the number 304 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 1: of people who think that NFL players should be able 305 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: to bet on the NFL. I mean, we talked about it. 306 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: We talked about it on Tuesday, and I think everyone 307 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 1: in this room agreed, No, you can't. It's insider trading, 308 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: you know, bet on everything else. I keep hearing the 309 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 1: things about injury reports and the team's relationships with you know, 310 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: draft kings, and I just I've yet to hear anybody 311 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 1: explain to me why that's hypocritical, right, and you know, 312 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: I don't get it. And one of your guys, the 313 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 1: payroll boys, uh lipshots, he was saying, well, you know, 314 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:04,880 Speaker 1: as long as as long as they're betting on their 315 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 1: team to win, it's okay. Really, But as Paul laid 316 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: out before, like if you continue to bet on your 317 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 1: team to win and they don't happens, when you get happen, 318 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: you know, Like you know, because if you're a player, 319 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:22,439 Speaker 1: a coach, or a referee, right, forget about referee, but 320 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 1: if you're a player or a coach, to me, it's 321 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 1: a lot more easier to influence a loss than it 322 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: is a win, you know what I mean. Like, so 323 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:34,920 Speaker 1: if you get in a hole, what are you gonna 324 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: you're gonna turn to making a loss or even you 325 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 1: can actually influence that, right, you know? Right? And plus 326 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: it just I think it just goes to the as 327 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,879 Speaker 1: you pointed out the last show, the integrity of the game. 328 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 1: You want to make sure that it's everything's on the 329 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 1: up and up. You don't want people thinking like that 330 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 1: there's any possible chance that anybody on the field is 331 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 1: doing something that they shouldn't do to try to win 332 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: the gad. You know you can't have and of course 333 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 1: is always the chance. But if you do it and 334 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: you get caught, it's severe, pet It should be severe, 335 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 1: very severe, right, it should It should dissuade others from 336 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,959 Speaker 1: trying to do it. Right, You're you're jeopardizing your career 337 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 1: if you do this, Yeah, you know it just to me, 338 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: it's just like remember you remember, I just I just 339 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: can't understand, Oh, let him do it? Well? Is it 340 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: partly that, like, has our culture changed that much? Because 341 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 1: remember when Pete the Pete Rose thing came out when 342 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 1: when we were younger, that was like, you know, banned 343 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 1: for life, no hall of fame, like he was a pariah, right, Uh? 344 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 1: And We're in such a culture now of of of 345 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,400 Speaker 1: fantasy sports and that kind of you know, online betting 346 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 1: on your phone, and it's so much easier. Like back 347 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 1: in the day, you'd have to physically go to Las 348 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,199 Speaker 1: Vegas or go to Atlantic have a shady guy that 349 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: you know, play a bet, he places a bet like that, 350 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,439 Speaker 1: you'd have to It really took some effort to do that. 351 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 1: You know, maybe you pick up the phone and call 352 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,679 Speaker 1: somebody whatever. But now it's so prevalent that you know, 353 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 1: maybe our culture has just gotten so warded down. It's 354 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 1: like whatever, you know, it's mainstream now, I think, and 355 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 1: that's I mean, I remember that that's a good thing. 356 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 1: But I'm just saying I never was. As everyone who 357 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,119 Speaker 1: knows you've heard my picks on this show. You know, 358 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: I don't when I want well anyway, But one of 359 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 1: my Firstsporians when my recruiting trip actually the Holy Cross 360 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 1: and the kid that I stayed with, like the whole 361 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,679 Speaker 1: weekend I was with him, He's making calls betting on 362 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: football the whole time. And I think that's you know, 363 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: for me, that was my and I think generally that's 364 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 1: like what your first impression of gambling was that you 365 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,239 Speaker 1: had a guy or that it was something. Now it's 366 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: like there's advertisements. And I'm not saying that that makes 367 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 1: it right. It's just it's so prevalent everywhere. Now you're 368 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 1: involved in what people are gambling on, go gamble on 369 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:46,679 Speaker 1: everything else in the world. And I would and I 370 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 1: would say that the guy, who are you betting on 371 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 1: holy Cross Hockey? Because like, to me, that's different, Yeah, 372 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: because I I do. I listen, Yeah, that wasn't my point. 373 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,919 Speaker 1: I mean, be in an environment that there was a 374 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,679 Speaker 1: lot of like I have a million friends, just like 375 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: the guy who hosts Yeah, like it's literally countless guys 376 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: that had a guy that they could call. They had 377 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 1: a number. They weren't names, they were numbers, and that's 378 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,919 Speaker 1: how they did it. That's fine. I have no problem 379 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: with that. Legal illegal. I'm not the morality police, Like 380 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: I'm not here to tell you what you should and 381 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: shouldn't do. But it's different for someone who's actually involved 382 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: in high level athletics, right, that's what that that's what 383 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:31,360 Speaker 1: the difference is. I can make a bet, I'm not, 384 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 1: you know, dealing with something that is potentially compromising the 385 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: integrity of the outcome. Of the game and a player 386 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: is and and think about it. We talked about you know, 387 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: it's one thing for the point spread and for the 388 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 1: outcome of the game. But you get in that hole 389 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:53,439 Speaker 1: and you're a receiver and there's a prop you know, um, 390 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 1: Eric Scalavino's gonna catch five game balls this game. That's 391 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 1: the problem. I'm gonna make. I have a beard, make 392 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 1: a bet from me, and I'm gonna make damn sure 393 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: on that fifth ball that comes to me, I don't 394 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,199 Speaker 1: catch it, right, So I win that bet? Right? You know, 395 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,239 Speaker 1: that's so easy to do instead of calling up your 396 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 1: guy and being like, so, I want to bet on 397 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,960 Speaker 1: this random player is gonna catch under fives, especially if, 398 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,360 Speaker 1: like if your team is winning, so like you know, 399 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,680 Speaker 1: like like let's say you have like a seventeen point 400 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 1: lead in the fourth quarter two minutes ago, and the 401 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 1: pass is coming your way and you're like, oh, yeah, 402 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 1: I can't catch five passes and you drop it. It 403 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: doesn't affect the outcome of the name, but it affects 404 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: that bet in particular. Still, you don't want that to 405 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:39,360 Speaker 1: even be a consideration. And I'm not right and I'm 406 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 1: not naive enough to think that players aren't betting on 407 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: the NFL. Oh, no, it happens that no certain and 408 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 1: they have people who bet for them. We don't know what. 409 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 1: But if you get caught, you're screwed. Yeah you should be. Yeah. 410 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 1: We don't know a sliver of what happened, right, We don't, right, 411 00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:00,160 Speaker 1: And I get it. I'm not naive, but that that's 412 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: why the NFL has to take action if it happens. 413 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: You don't want to be like if if they know 414 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: it happens, right, Claude Rains in Casablanca whatever, being shocked, 415 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,640 Speaker 1: I'm shocked that there's gambling going on here. Are your winning? 416 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 1: Are you a winner? Winning? Like? You have to if 417 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,679 Speaker 1: you if you find out about it, you have to 418 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 1: do something about it. I don't think that a year 419 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 1: is too excessive to get back to the word of 420 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 1: the day. There you go, it s excessive, all right? 421 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: Und Web Radio and Patriot dot Com is the email address. Uh, 422 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 1: let's open it up. We'll see what that's on, what's 423 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: on everyone's mind, and I'm sure they'll take us down 424 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 1: different roads. Todd's in North Carolina? What's up, Todd? Hey, there, guys, 425 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 1: I kind of busted due deuces balls for his article 426 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: on the free agents, saying like, most of these guys 427 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 1: are old and slow. And then I thought about it 428 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: when I said, well, wait a minute, what what is 429 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: the criteria for looking at what you want? Are you 430 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: is like, are we willing to plug in some old 431 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 1: guys just to get leadership or some knowledge or you know, 432 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,679 Speaker 1: I just I don't know what? What do? What do 433 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 1: you do for basing your free agency on your approach 434 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:11,639 Speaker 1: to it? What depends what you're looking for? Yeah? I 435 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: think there's well I think if you you know I'm 436 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:18,120 Speaker 1: asking you what you're looking for me? Yeah, I think 437 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 1: what I would like is a quality D lineman. Okay, 438 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:26,199 Speaker 1: then I would say that age is really not a 439 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 1: huge factor there. If you want like a defensive tackle 440 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,239 Speaker 1: to come in, like I think do said you had 441 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 1: a Keem Hicks, right, Yeah, like I don't know his 442 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 1: age wouldn't scare me? Yeah? Like I just needed to fit. 443 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: Now if I need like a wide receiver or run yeah, 444 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 1: you know, an athlete that I need to inject some 445 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 1: you know, athleticism, a linebacker. I don't want a thirty 446 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 1: three year old. I don't want Bobby Wagner. Bobby Wagner 447 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,360 Speaker 1: is a tremendous player. Yeah. As soon as him available, 448 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, okay, he's a tremendous I love. That's 449 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:02,679 Speaker 1: the kind of linebacker the Patriots I've been clamoring for. 450 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 1: But I don't want a thirty three year old one, right, 451 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 1: I want a twenty three year old one. Yeah. I 452 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 1: was just basing my some of my thought processes. Our 453 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:15,479 Speaker 1: veteran d lineman this last year just didn't seem to correct. 454 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 1: Maybe it's just a talent thing, yeah, that they just 455 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 1: didn't seem to step it up. Yeah, they didn't get 456 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:23,479 Speaker 1: the right one to that. Yeah, right, Okay. I mean 457 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 1: I think it's a balancing act. And I mean I 458 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 1: think building a team, you don't want to get too young. 459 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 1: You want to still have some veteran presence. But uh 460 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 1: but excuse me, did you hear that? You know? I 461 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 1: also don't think you can just turn it all over 462 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 1: to We haven't even eaten yet, Fred. What are they doing? Matt? 463 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: Matt's going to take care of business down? Why does 464 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 1: this marine Muss ties a bandana first? For some reason? 465 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 1: Like what is Rambo? Like? What is Matt? Look out? 466 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:00,400 Speaker 1: But I am coming to get you. Yeah, I thought 467 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:01,919 Speaker 1: I would just say, though, I think generally, you know, 468 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:03,439 Speaker 1: Paul and I are the same page. Are just like 469 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,200 Speaker 1: this team has to get younger. They gotta get younger. 470 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and so that guy's dead now, everybody so 471 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 1: covering blood neutralized the word.

I think he's had a good career. 490 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,439 Speaker 1: I think that he is What is he like, twenty eight, 491 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:27,879 Speaker 1: twenty seven, twenty seven? Um, So he's not off the 492 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 1: board for me. Like, he's not thirty three. He's not 493 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,360 Speaker 1: one of these thirty somethings that I'm not interested in. Right, 494 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 1: He's still young enough and productive enough that I would 495 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: absolutely be interested in him. I would rather a guy 496 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 1: that I can you know, if they could sign him 497 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 1: to a five year deal and I can have him 498 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:44,880 Speaker 1: work with Mac Jones for the next three years, I'm in. Okay, 499 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: I'm in. So you're not in to rent the solutions 500 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 1: when it comes to offense, in specially offense, Yeah that's 501 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 1: what Yeah, okay, So I want to find some guys 502 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: that can make Mac better going forward, not not for 503 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 1: five minutes. Yeah, you want to want them to if 504 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: they if they want to sign Cooper, I want them 505 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 1: to go in and sign Cooper, not like, well, we'll 506 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 1: give you a one year prove it deal. He doesn't 507 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,400 Speaker 1: need to prove anything, right, Yeah, he's gonna be twenty 508 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:12,679 Speaker 1: eight in June. Okay, so twenty seven. Yeah, there you go, 509 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 1: Spees and friends. Now, what's going on, guys? How you doing? Okay? 510 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 1: All right? All right? Um, you know, even if the 511 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 1: guys is betting on his own team, uh, not even 512 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,680 Speaker 1: betting on the up the opponent. I mean, there's gonna 513 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:29,679 Speaker 1: come a game where he doesn't better than own team. Right, 514 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:35,160 Speaker 1: you play less hard, right. Silence speaks more than words sometimes. Yeah, 515 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 1: it's ridiculous to try and justify it. I'm glad you 516 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,160 Speaker 1: guys stood up at the good point of view. There 517 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 1: a question I said. The guy had a draft related 518 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: question that a Curtains. I was thinking about the Indie 519 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 1: game this past season, where you know, coming into it, 520 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 1: feeling really desperate for the Patriots to win, like probably 521 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:58,439 Speaker 1: because it's so insecure about the winning street, like you're thinking, 522 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: why not us? But at the same time thing this 523 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:02,919 Speaker 1: team probably isn't as good as good as a record, 524 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,199 Speaker 1: which they weren't, and so I kind of got a 525 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:08,120 Speaker 1: feeling like the similar feeling coming into the draft where 526 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 1: Bill has recently been stringing some stuff together, but the 527 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 1: broader context is bad drafting for the last five years 528 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,639 Speaker 1: or ken. When you're talking about wide receivers, So I 529 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: have some prepidation. I kind of feel like it could 530 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 1: unravel if it's like the broader the recent history, And 531 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 1: I just wanted to get your guys thoughts, like gun 532 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 1: to the head. What do you think is more likely 533 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 1: that Bill continues to string it together with the recent 534 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,879 Speaker 1: streak drafting, or if he regretsss to what's happened in 535 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 1: the past five or so a year. Yeah, it's I 536 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 1: mean a good question. Yeah, I mean it's and it's 537 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: also mentioned in that you know, it's the staff has 538 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 1: been evolving too, so you know those those the scouting 539 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 1: department has changed a little bit um. But I think 540 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: the bottom line is that they just they can't he 541 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 1: can't be afraid to draft a wide receiver based on 542 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 1: if you love a guy in the first round and 543 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: he you know, it's a similar size of nikkil Harry, 544 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 1: then I think he got to take them. But I mean, 545 00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: I think that's the truth, and and that's how they 546 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: get out of this. And everybody's gonna go crazy over 547 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 1: free agency in the next week. It's just I don't 548 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 1: think that the Patriots are gonna if they're to be 549 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: a contender in the next year, two years, three years. 550 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 1: I don't think it's going to be made in this 551 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 1: you know, particular free agent class in the next couple 552 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 1: of weeks. I think it's he's got a string together, 553 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 1: like like sp said, the draft, you know, and and 554 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 1: fill those holes. And there's just so many questions right 555 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 1: now on defense about the personnel, and on offense about 556 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 1: the coaching, and how does it come together and how 557 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 1: do they take the next step. Well, you wonder that, 558 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 1: you know, you could take chances when you had Tom Brady. 559 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: I wonder if they realize that and say, Okay, we 560 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 1: got to get more mainstream with our picks. That's the 561 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 1: thing I found interesting about the people that Deuce was 562 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 1: listening to an indie UM talking to you. I think 563 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 1: it was I think Albert Breer was the one that 564 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:52,720 Speaker 1: used the phrase that talking to some personnel people, he 565 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 1: felt like the Patriots was sort of still acting like 566 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 1: they still had Tom Brady, and it's not I think 567 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 1: some people would misunderstand. I think the meaning, or at 568 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: least the way I took the meaning of that it 569 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 1: was kind of what you just said, Fred, not like, 570 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 1: well they think did the class of the AFC that 571 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 1: they're super Bowl contenders. No, they're sort of like telling J. C. Jackson, 572 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 1: you go out and see what's on the market, and 573 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 1: then if the market craters, you can come back and 574 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 1: come back. You come back, you know, like like we 575 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: got like tom Brady's going to draw him back, you know, 576 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 1: or you know some resent Amari Cooper is going to 577 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 1: sign a one year deal for short money so we 578 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: could catch a million passes and then go and cash 579 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 1: in like tom Brady's gonna do that. Like, yeah, that's 580 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 1: what I the way Fred explained that is the way 581 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 1: I looked at that comment from Breer. But is that 582 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 1: a is that a tom Brady thing? Or is that 583 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 1: the Patriots just being cheap ass like they usually are? Well, well, 584 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: I mean I would you know, it allows them to 585 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 1: save money, correct, So like this is the age old problem, 586 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,480 Speaker 1: This is the age old conundrum with the Patriots and 587 00:30:55,600 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 1: their fans and their beliefs. Did they succeed because because 588 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: of the economic beliefs or did they succeed because they 589 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 1: had the greatest player who's ever played the sport, allowing 590 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 1: them to be a little bit uh you know, disappoint 591 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: economic rug Yeah, yeah, you know, like where's the line 592 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 1: because I mean, I think the line and right and 593 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 1: you know, and Tom Brady didn't step in the league 594 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 1: and was you know, I think twenty years that they 595 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 1: did it was I mean notable. It was more than 596 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 1: just tom Brady centering in and just kicking everybody's ask 597 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 1: for twenty years. There was you know a little bit 598 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 1: of a curve there. Well, I mean they you know, 599 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:32,479 Speaker 1: those early teams they um, you know, I don't think 600 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,719 Speaker 1: it was all tom Brady then, and I mean I 601 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: probably would agree with it, probably starting about two thousand 602 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:38,520 Speaker 1: and seven. And at that point he was, you know, 603 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 1: a master of everything that he was doing. But that's when. 604 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 1: But but that's when the rosters went that Like in 605 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 1: two thousand and four, no one would say that they 606 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 1: don't have a championship roster. No. Yeah, but you know, 607 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 1: like the two thousand and sixteen that he dragged to 608 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 1: within thirty seconds of the super Bowl, that roster wasn't 609 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 1: super Bowl worthy. Oh it's not two eleven. Yeah. But 610 00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 1: but it's the interesting point now where you're you're having 611 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 1: to choose and do you continue to manage your finances 612 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: like that? And what they tell you is that we 613 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 1: need to have one to fifty three. We need to 614 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 1: spread it out. We can't and that's you know, how 615 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 1: it was sold to us UM exactly. But does that 616 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: can that work now if you don't have at least 617 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 1: one alpha dog at the time. I think that's what 618 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: when Fred, when you said it like that, that's what 619 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 1: it reminded me of, Just that comment that I heard 620 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 1: Albert Brier say last week. I think on on Zoe 621 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 1: and Beatle, Yeah, they have to adjust, they're thinking because 622 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 1: they don't have that greatest player who ever played that game. 623 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:35,720 Speaker 1: But but at the same time, I mean, I think, 624 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 1: you know, the teams can be conservative, right, like, I 625 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 1: mean that can financially like you know, like that. But 626 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:43,880 Speaker 1: but but it gets back to what we were just 627 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: taught about. You must draft. Well, yeah, that's the consistently. 628 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody would tell you the way to 629 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 1: do it in the NFL and be a consistent winner 630 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 1: is to spend wildly every year in free agency, right. 631 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody would would advocate for that. Yeah, 632 00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 1: but it's it's about being art and when you're gonna 633 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,959 Speaker 1: drop the big bucks like Stefan Gilmore. I think that 634 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,200 Speaker 1: worked out, you know, And that was one where I 635 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 1: was blown away. I didn't think that they valued cornerbacks 636 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: like that. I didn't think in any situation that they 637 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: were jumping in that market. And they went right into it, 638 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 1: and you know, it worked out, it really did, and 639 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 1: so in that regard it it's good. But I also think, like, 640 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 1: you know, you look at how they spread the money 641 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: around last year, and we've talked about it a little bit, 642 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 1: like could they have maybe taken two of those guys 643 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 1: and translated that into one like could you take the 644 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 1: Aggalore Godshaw money and make that into somebody like me? No, 645 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,320 Speaker 1: but they hadn't picked the ones that you don't think. 646 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 1: I love it, but I love it. But who who 647 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 1: would you like? Last night year? Who would you have 648 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 1: done it? Now? I don't think that. I think they 649 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 1: would have. They had the money and no one else did, 650 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: so they would have done that if there was somebody 651 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 1: that much better than Hunter Henry and John O. Smith 652 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 1: for example, and you know, if if if they spent 653 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:55,959 Speaker 1: through the notes for those guys, right, No, but if 654 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 1: Kelsey was available, I think they would have combined that 655 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:00,920 Speaker 1: and gotten Kelsey instead of those too. You know what 656 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 1: I mean? I don't I mean I don't. I do. Oh, 657 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 1: I think if they got Kelsey, Yeah, I think they 658 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,719 Speaker 1: don't believe in that contract. They had the money, they 659 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:11,919 Speaker 1: don't believe in that contract. I don't think they would 660 00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 1: do it. I don't think they would have made the 661 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson trade because of the contract, not because of like, 662 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 1: oh we think mac Jones is feeling incomparable. I think 663 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 1: they wouldn't. They don't. They're not interested in giving that 664 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 1: guy the forty million dollar deal. Yeah. It's also I 665 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 1: think reflected in the extensions that they've given out and 666 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 1: the guys that they signaled that they want to keep, 667 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 1: which is not really anybody right now. I mean, who 668 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 1: on this team right now is in their second and 669 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,880 Speaker 1: like it's nobody. It's Jonathan Jones and it's Shack Mason. 670 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 1: Those are the guys that that got the got the 671 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 1: extension that they could play ball with. But you know, 672 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 1: now we're talking about those guys as well, they're taking 673 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:49,800 Speaker 1: a big chunk and they're not really those guys anymore. 674 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:51,880 Speaker 1: They're not you know, Jonathan Jones is not you know, 675 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:56,319 Speaker 1: an outside number one corneries great players, and that was 676 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 1: and that was a big extension. Yeah, see, those are 677 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,879 Speaker 1: the extent. This is why I all he's fight back. 678 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,280 Speaker 1: And this is not because you use the word earlier 679 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 1: of the cheap moniker. I don't think they're cheap. They 680 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 1: think something different financially than a lot of other teams do. 681 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 1: I think they want to give what. I think that 682 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:20,240 Speaker 1: they're more than willing to give average players like money 683 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 1: that you wouldn't think that you would need to give. Yeah, 684 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,759 Speaker 1: and Jonathan Jones is an example of that. He's a 685 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 1: good slot guy. I don't think he's like the best 686 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,280 Speaker 1: slot guy. I don't think he's a difference making player. 687 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 1: And all of a sudden you look up in his 688 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 1: cap number is what pull it up for you? Nine 689 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:40,440 Speaker 1: million Brown there Ballpark, you know, like, I think most 690 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 1: people will look at that and say, is Jonathan Jones 691 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,160 Speaker 1: worth like that? Like? So, I don't think they're cheap. 692 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:51,400 Speaker 1: I think they think more of you know, the special 693 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:54,919 Speaker 1: teams veterans than a lot of other teams do. And 694 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 1: you know, we have to invest cap dollars in you know, 695 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:00,279 Speaker 1: a couple of million here for Slater or couple of 696 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 1: million there for Bethels. And that's where I mean a 697 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:04,239 Speaker 1: lot of other teams have those guys making like seven 698 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty thousand dollars and there's no difference, right 699 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:11,319 Speaker 1: eighty eight million? Yeah? Eight million. I brought up, you know, 700 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 1: a few months ago. I think we kind of too 701 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 1: a little argument about Bill playing favorites with players when 702 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:18,919 Speaker 1: we were talking about the guys, you know, the older 703 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 1: veterans that were playing over some of the younger guys. 704 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,319 Speaker 1: This is another example of favorites where if he likes 705 00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:26,239 Speaker 1: a guy, doesn't matter what position he plays, I'm gonna 706 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,440 Speaker 1: pay you. Did you do what I tell you? I 707 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 1: like you? You know what I mean? Like that? And 708 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 1: I would wonder is even guys that I really really like, 709 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:36,360 Speaker 1: like a guy like Devin mccordy, did it really acquire 710 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,520 Speaker 1: the amount of money to hanger on you know in 711 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:43,480 Speaker 1: year nine, ten eleven, whatever it is, and making that 712 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:45,560 Speaker 1: kind of money to be a starter back there and 713 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 1: still a good player. But basically I want him as 714 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,520 Speaker 1: a mentor and a leader, like did it cost you 715 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:55,080 Speaker 1: that much? You know? Is that what everybody is paying 716 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 1: for leadership nowadays? Maybe it is, Maybe it's just the 717 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 1: sign of the times. Maybe it's the cost of doing business. 718 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 1: What I think that they would walk away from a 719 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:07,399 Speaker 1: guy making yeah, like the quarterback making forty five million 720 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:09,360 Speaker 1: dollars a year. I don't think they would want that. William, 721 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:13,799 Speaker 1: some fellam, what's up? Will them brollos? What's going on? Hey? Hey, Willie? 722 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:19,320 Speaker 1: How y'all doing? Uh? Just uh, touch on a juicel Jackson. 723 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,960 Speaker 1: That's it, And I'm not too well.

But for us, well, I'm 727 00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:31,840 Speaker 1: and I don't want to speak for anybody, but I 728 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 1: would say y'all do an excellent John just sometimes as 729 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 1: y'all as working as hard as y'all do. Sometimes y'all 730 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 1: just need to hear that you appreciate this guy's no problem, 731 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:47,800 Speaker 1: no problem them. So the Rotney uh was Rodney Anderson? No, Robbie, 732 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:52,359 Speaker 1: Robbie and Robbie. Yeah, Robbie, And I'm sorry, No, Yeah, 733 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:55,319 Speaker 1: I agree, I agree. I don't think he's I don't 734 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 1: think he's worth pursuing. I agree, right, let me say 735 00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 1: it again, nice and long with it. No, See, that's 736 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:04,520 Speaker 1: what we'll go back to A Marie Cooper. They would 737 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:08,839 Speaker 1: rather have Robbie Anderson. Yes, Now, like I'm gonna push 738 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:11,880 Speaker 1: back here on everybody. What what what does everybody have 739 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 1: against Robbie Anderson? He's never made an important catch in 740 00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:19,359 Speaker 1: his career like against done well when oh I remember game? 741 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 1: Don't make me go to my phone, Deuce, you have 742 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 1: a computer there. He's a thoroughly average player. Who yeah, 743 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:32,399 Speaker 1: is He's like a David Gibbons type, isn't he? Yeah? 744 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 1: I have no interest in David Gibbons right now, okay, 745 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:39,320 Speaker 1: all right, right now? They need a number one receiver. 746 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:41,800 Speaker 1: David Gibbins isn't there, And I don't think Robbie Anderson 747 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:44,360 Speaker 1: is either. No, no, But that's why I'm not interested. 748 00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:48,040 Speaker 1: He's not gonna get number one money, of course he is. 749 00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 1: You think that's what he makes? Why do you think 750 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 1: he's on the block? Okay, all right, I've never really 751 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 1: cared for him. Can you give me his game by 752 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:56,839 Speaker 1: game against the Patriots? Because I seem to remember like 753 00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:00,040 Speaker 1: one catch for eight yard kind of games against I 754 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 1: seem to remember him being a pain in the ass 755 00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:05,240 Speaker 1: when he was with the Jets. Yeah, maybe a few times. 756 00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,359 Speaker 1: But we're about to find out and I come as 757 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 1: always this narrative. Let me say, I think I hear 758 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 1: from Patris and filter you gentlemen and a lot of others. Well, 759 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:18,879 Speaker 1: Matt needs a receiver. And I'm saying to myself, Okay, 760 00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 1: y'all expecting him to be good in his second year. 761 00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:24,800 Speaker 1: A receiver ain't gonna just get it. I think, what's 762 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 1: just just looking at what Russell Wilson gonna have, man, 763 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:30,520 Speaker 1: I think Bill better Dan, Well, get this man some 764 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,600 Speaker 1: real receivers and stop playing like I don't know how 765 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:35,799 Speaker 1: that's gonna be done though with the camp and you 766 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:37,360 Speaker 1: only got a certain amount of pig, you know, And 767 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 1: I feel all these holes and when I am it's 768 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,440 Speaker 1: just like Mike said, it's like you got to hit 769 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 1: on this draft, you know what I mean. At least 770 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 1: five picks should be ready to go. I don't know 771 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:50,319 Speaker 1: five is a little tough, but yeah, three, let's go 772 00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 1: for three. Yeah, okay, I can go. I'd love to 773 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,960 Speaker 1: get a Day two and a Day three receiver this year. 774 00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:58,560 Speaker 1: I've wanted a Day two receiver the last two years. 775 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 1: I mean, there's just there's just so many guys that 776 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,839 Speaker 1: that can help, and I just you got Kendrick Bourne 777 00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:04,399 Speaker 1: is the only one under contract for the next year. 778 00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:06,240 Speaker 1: You got to do something there this year to build 779 00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 1: some continuity there. And maybe maybe it's Jakobe Myers. But yeah, 780 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 1: all right, my last topic.

Yeah, if you 788 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 1: played at Alabama or Ohio State, Right, you're one of them. Listen, 789 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:37,759 Speaker 1: meet you or Williams. I'll take either one. And you know, 790 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:41,320 Speaker 1: but maybe not with twenty one. You know, I continue 791 00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:44,960 Speaker 1: to say, Garrett Wilson, second round them Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 792 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:48,120 Speaker 1: if they drop, I grab them. Yeah, you know, I 793 00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:50,239 Speaker 1: don't know which guys I want to receive in the 794 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:55,080 Speaker 1: second round. One Dale one, Dale Robinson is supposed to go. 795 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 1: He's gonna go in the range because he ran slow, 796 00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 1: so he's gonna fall from Utah. Devin Lloyd Lloyd. Yeah. 797 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:06,759 Speaker 1: I mean he's a he's a popular one too. But 798 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 1: I think there's a um see again, I I haven't, 799 00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:14,120 Speaker 1: I haven't do really really hard into him, but you know, 800 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 1: my initial impression with him is like a four to three, 801 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:19,760 Speaker 1: you know, four low for three guy who just runs 802 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,719 Speaker 1: down the field really fast and burns people. And that's 803 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:24,319 Speaker 1: like that, and that's not really what I want. I 804 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 1: want a guy that can do a bunch of things. 805 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:28,359 Speaker 1: And I mean, like I said, I love I love 806 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:30,640 Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson Um, you know, I, like I said, a 807 00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:33,640 Speaker 1: little less higher on a lave Um, still love him. 808 00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:35,360 Speaker 1: But I just I think that, you know, this is 809 00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:37,840 Speaker 1: the league now, you need dynamic weapons. I think every 810 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,799 Speaker 1: year I would, you know, consider drafting a quarterback, and 811 00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:42,600 Speaker 1: every year I think you should draft a wide receiver. 812 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:45,960 Speaker 1: It's just it's such an important position. And I think 813 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 1: there's a bunch of guys that, you know, in the 814 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:49,440 Speaker 1: in the day two you can find a guy who's 815 00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:51,759 Speaker 1: got some wheels, and in you know, the later rounds, 816 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 1: maybe you find one of those little slot guys that 817 00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 1: that everybody loves and you know, fits that kind of 818 00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:59,800 Speaker 1: Wes Welker Uh, Julian Edelman kind of need that everybody has, 819 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:01,800 Speaker 1: even it's just a punt return. I mean, Gunner is 820 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,239 Speaker 1: kind of that guy. So um, but I think they're 821 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 1: just options everywhere for for what you want. And I 822 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:11,239 Speaker 1: wouldn't really complain about any other idiot. Thanks William. So 823 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 1: you guys want to hear about thanks, Oh, please do 824 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:18,759 Speaker 1: because I have the prolific career. There was one reasonably 825 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:21,360 Speaker 1: good game. There was one reasonably the game where he 826 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,760 Speaker 1: was targeted twelve times and had four catches for seventy 827 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:28,200 Speaker 1: six yards. Is the eight here we go, two for 828 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:32,040 Speaker 1: thirty four, none for none, one for two. These are 829 00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:35,399 Speaker 1: catches catches for yards three eleven, two for twenty two, 830 00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 1: three for twenty four, three for eleven, one for ten, 831 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:39,880 Speaker 1: and one for two. He is o and nine career 832 00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 1: against the Patriots. He's had Maybe I'm thinking of Wayne 833 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:47,879 Speaker 1: Krabet seventeen career catches for one hundred and eighty one 834 00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:50,839 Speaker 1: yards and no touchdowns. And he said Belichick was sick, 835 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 1: sick out of having a game plan. I think he 836 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:55,880 Speaker 1: did a pretty good job. Game plan set him down well, 837 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 1: Robbie said. When I think when they're playing the Panthers, 838 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:00,080 Speaker 1: they Robbie Anderson said, oh, you know, I had they 839 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:02,000 Speaker 1: pursued me a little bit, and Belichick had told me 840 00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 1: that he was sick of having a game plan for me. Well, 841 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:08,160 Speaker 1: he did pretty good job job. I think the game 842 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 1: plan consisted of Stephie, you come out cover him a right? Right? Right? 843 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 1: What's his career numbers? Not just but like you know, 844 00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:22,480 Speaker 1: what's he do? He had one good year? Yeah, one 845 00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:25,759 Speaker 1: good his first year with Carolina he had a thousand yards? Yeah. 846 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:27,480 Speaker 1: Do you have his career stats in front of yeah? 847 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:31,200 Speaker 1: I got um so I just do catch his yards touchdown? 848 00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:34,239 Speaker 1: So rookie year twenty sixteen with the Jets so forty two, five, 849 00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 1: eighty seven, sixty three nine, forty one, fifty seven, fifty two, 850 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:41,520 Speaker 1: fifty two, seven, seventy nine. I mean he's it's Kendrick 851 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:44,480 Speaker 1: Bourne's Yeah, exactly what did I say? We have to 852 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 1: be so? But why I already have I know? But 853 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:49,720 Speaker 1: why do you think he's gonna get number one receiver 854 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,640 Speaker 1: money based on that? I don't know. He's under a 855 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:56,000 Speaker 1: contract for number one receiver money that he signed in 856 00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:59,120 Speaker 1: Carolina extended him, didn't he is that he signed initially 857 00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:01,760 Speaker 1: and then he signed next mention as well, I believe so, 858 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:04,560 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just I think you don't have 859 00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:06,760 Speaker 1: to deal with the signing bonus. So it's just based 860 00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:08,680 Speaker 1: out of you. So it's probably not out, you know, 861 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 1: outrageous at this point. But he like that's what he's 862 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:15,120 Speaker 1: supposed to be, is a number one receiver. And okay, 863 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:17,800 Speaker 1: I think we have three of him. Yeah, he's faster 864 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 1: than the guy. I don't think he's a number one receiver, 865 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:22,200 Speaker 1: but he's not. I think he'd be it up. I 866 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:27,040 Speaker 1: think he'd automatically be probably our number two. Yeah, I don't. 867 00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:29,320 Speaker 1: I think he's the same as the three guys you have. Okay, 868 00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:32,680 Speaker 1: pretty much wildly inconsistent. Try to get another guy around 869 00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:34,839 Speaker 1: the league that's been around and try to make him 870 00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:37,799 Speaker 1: the number one. Like draft guys, develop them, bring them 871 00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:42,560 Speaker 1: in here, let them learn. It's only that's only, it's 872 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:45,840 Speaker 1: only you don't have to you can still draft a 873 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,920 Speaker 1: receiver if you bring him in. He's only under contract 874 00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:51,760 Speaker 1: for ten million damage, it's not it's not outrageous money 875 00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:56,320 Speaker 1: eight point eight in twenty twenty three, So he is 876 00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:58,560 Speaker 1: due a two million dollars signing bonus. I mean, I'm 877 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 1: sorry roster bonus. So I guess that's twelve million for 878 00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:05,480 Speaker 1: twenty two Yeah, with a potential out there. So, I mean, 879 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:07,799 Speaker 1: I'm not getting into all the particulars. I leave that 880 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 1: to Miguel Um. So it's not an outrageously expensive contract. 881 00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:15,200 Speaker 1: But he's not that player. He's not worth twelve million 882 00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:19,600 Speaker 1: dollars to me. Okay, Eldred's in North Carolina? Are Cooper? Absolutely, 883 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 1: I would take him for that. What's up, Eldred, I'm 884 00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:25,319 Speaker 1: not gonna get him. Hey, take it good, yo. You 885 00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:28,279 Speaker 1: know what. I love y'all so much, man, because you 886 00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:34,120 Speaker 1: know what y'all can repeat me five years later. I mean, no, 887 00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 1: answered you wrong. Mccordy is good, good players. He wasn't 888 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:40,040 Speaker 1: worse than to me. Like I told y'all once before. 889 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:43,359 Speaker 1: They me five kids, five players. They worked him to me, 890 00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:45,920 Speaker 1: you know, and I get scanty the chief. We went 891 00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 1: to Super Bowl with Brady. He did five good plays 892 00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:50,840 Speaker 1: in over them years. But I'm glad I'm listening to you, 893 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:53,840 Speaker 1: and glad y'all listen to me right now. Thanks for 894 00:45:53,880 --> 00:46:01,000 Speaker 1: helping us, but so and prayer too. Ain't no way 895 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 1: in the world I'm gonna take a sucking day receiver, 896 00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:06,960 Speaker 1: Like I said, lovel William. I don't know about me, Keith, 897 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:11,879 Speaker 1: Wilson or Dodson. They're going in day one and when 898 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:13,600 Speaker 1: like I said, most of those three of those guys 899 00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:16,120 Speaker 1: are down there about twenty one, twenty two or twenty eight, 900 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:19,960 Speaker 1: I'm taking one of those proven commodity. I'm taking on 901 00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:21,960 Speaker 1: the sucking day that might be I'm not gonna do that, 902 00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:24,239 Speaker 1: but you know, but Mac does need to be that. 903 00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:27,080 Speaker 1: But what I'm worried about who's gonna be whos gonna 904 00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:29,480 Speaker 1: run the offense? That's what's getting the devil out of me, right, 905 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:33,840 Speaker 1: Who's gonna run the offense? Who's gonna run offense? Understand 906 00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:36,399 Speaker 1: I knew you got coaches, but you got the offense 907 00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:39,280 Speaker 1: the court day, m Daniel don't. That's what's worry me about, Matt, 908 00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:41,319 Speaker 1: you know, because I like, you know what they're saying, 909 00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:43,520 Speaker 1: when you have two head coaches, you really have none. 910 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:50,360 Speaker 1: That's right. Two head coaches are assistant coaches, right, and 911 00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:52,160 Speaker 1: neither one was really good at their job. But when 912 00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:54,840 Speaker 1: being the head coach, so I was just a details 913 00:46:57,400 --> 00:46:59,920 Speaker 1: but h But like I said, I hope what I 914 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:02,839 Speaker 1: would like to do? What would happen if we had 915 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,239 Speaker 1: to I don't think we got the cap space. I 916 00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:09,040 Speaker 1: would take a fly on. I would give uh j 917 00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:12,359 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones. I stuck around peak for Gallup because he's 918 00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:14,799 Speaker 1: on he's on the Uh. He's the agent right now. 919 00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:16,640 Speaker 1: He's a free agent. So you can't so you can't 920 00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:19,400 Speaker 1: trade for So we're drafting run in the first, we're 921 00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:24,960 Speaker 1: trading our second. Okay, then that came that throw that 922 00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:26,760 Speaker 1: out there. Now, I'll go ahead and get like I said, 923 00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:29,799 Speaker 1: those three guys in the first round, because the proof 924 00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:33,239 Speaker 1: come out of because look at Chase and look at Borrow, Uh, 925 00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 1: look at Smith and it hurts. And did you look 926 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:40,440 Speaker 1: at Watterle and and um and what what? What did 927 00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:44,319 Speaker 1: you what did you see with Chasing Hurts? Huh Smith? 928 00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:47,319 Speaker 1: I mean chasing Uh, I mean not Chase Smith and 929 00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:52,160 Speaker 1: Smith and hurt. Yeah, that you know. So, so I 930 00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:55,640 Speaker 1: think either you get somebody's familiar with whatever I will 931 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:59,759 Speaker 1: give Matt Williams or meeting you know, and go from there. 932 00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:04,359 Speaker 1: Now non conforming, well, Metchi probably a day two guy. 933 00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:07,160 Speaker 1: I'm not conformed. I'm all in on Metchi. I would 934 00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 1: I would welcome that one, but I would take him 935 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:10,680 Speaker 1: in the first one. I would take him in round 936 00:48:10,719 --> 00:48:13,959 Speaker 1: the injuries. The injuries, Yeah, I'm more willing to guys. 937 00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:17,120 Speaker 1: He's not going to drop to round two. He says, Yeah, 938 00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:19,920 Speaker 1: I think everybody has him in round two. I mean, 939 00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:22,240 Speaker 1: I don't know some people. I'm in three. Will Whenever 940 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:24,239 Speaker 1: I talk about draft and where guys are going, I'm 941 00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:26,680 Speaker 1: going strictly based on what I read, not what I know. 942 00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:28,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna bug you, Eldre. But I didn't 943 00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:31,480 Speaker 1: like Jamison Williams. I just he didn't like his personality 944 00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:34,880 Speaker 1: and kind of just his demeanor. It just did not Portman. 945 00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:38,360 Speaker 1: Mike is No, there was a precedent with Mike not 946 00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:41,560 Speaker 1: liking talent. Yeah, that's true, because we're not all going 947 00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 1: to work that exactly. He got. He didn't like the 948 00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:47,520 Speaker 1: cut of his jib. He got six. You know guys 949 00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:49,040 Speaker 1: that that you could go in the first one. They're 950 00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:51,080 Speaker 1: not all going to be superstars, No they're not. Some 951 00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 1: of these guys are. We're pumping their tires right now 952 00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:55,680 Speaker 1: and they're gonna If this guy was healthy, he'd be 953 00:48:55,719 --> 00:48:58,640 Speaker 1: going in the top ten. Sure. Sure, you know he's 954 00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:03,320 Speaker 1: more gifted. I was like Jamison Jamison Williams, James Jameson. 955 00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:06,960 Speaker 1: He's going he's going twenty three. Yeah, but I said 956 00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:09,280 Speaker 1: if he was healthy, he would not be around and 957 00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:13,560 Speaker 1: beyond ten. He's dynamic. He's the fastest. I mean yeah, 958 00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:15,880 Speaker 1: trust me, I paid next to him. I know, I 959 00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:20,000 Speaker 1: know him pretty well. Why he's one of my bathroom buddies. Indian. 960 00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:25,320 Speaker 1: He's like Joe Flacco by Mitcam. You only run straight, 961 00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:28,319 Speaker 1: but like I think you could right route three. I 962 00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 1: told y'all that I heard they were going to try 963 00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:33,280 Speaker 1: to trade for Metcalf. I gotta be honest with you, Eldred. 964 00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:35,960 Speaker 1: The longer Metcalf is in the league, the lesson pressed 965 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:38,839 Speaker 1: I am with him. I'll be honest with him. Yeah, 966 00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:40,920 Speaker 1: I think ruf Wilson. They had something to do with 967 00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:43,440 Speaker 1: that later on, but in the beginning and that won. 968 00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:47,799 Speaker 1: You know what. Yeah yeah, but if we had Mac 969 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:49,759 Speaker 1: thrown it to him, we wouldn't have any anything to work. 970 00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:55,560 Speaker 1: Y'all have a good man, all right? Yeah. That that's 971 00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:58,000 Speaker 1: why I love him, because you could go back and forth. 972 00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:01,000 Speaker 1: L happened. He knows that we're just kidding. Just sports. 973 00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:04,359 Speaker 1: It's sports. M give me my sports. That was another one. 974 00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:07,759 Speaker 1: As soon as Wilson was traded. Everyone just assumed Seattle's 975 00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:17,160 Speaker 1: just gonna like Tyler Lockett's coming, Yeah, and DJ everybody, 976 00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:21,319 Speaker 1: I don't know exactly what Seattle's doing. Okay, so maybe 977 00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:24,879 Speaker 1: Seattle is actually gonna blow it up. Yeah, but they're 978 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:28,480 Speaker 1: gonna strip away every valuable piece that they have and 979 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:32,200 Speaker 1: just completely started over. But to me, if I was 980 00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:35,040 Speaker 1: trying to do a complete and total rebuild, I would 981 00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:37,719 Speaker 1: take the talented players that I have on good contracts 982 00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:39,759 Speaker 1: and I would try to keep them, yeah, for at 983 00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 1: least through their contract. Everybody is writing about Tyler Lockett, 984 00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:46,920 Speaker 1: who would make perfect sense in the slot and be 985 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,480 Speaker 1: able to do this, this and this, and he's really affordable. 986 00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:52,799 Speaker 1: And I say to myself, then why does Seattle want 987 00:50:52,800 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 1: to get rid of them right now? Maybe they will. 988 00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:59,040 Speaker 1: Maybe they're just determined because you have to replace these people. 989 00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:01,200 Speaker 1: Maybe they're determined to get rid of all of their 990 00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:03,799 Speaker 1: good players like Miami did, which you know may or 991 00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:05,959 Speaker 1: may not have been legal a couple of years ago. 992 00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 1: And maybe that's the whole impetus behind this. They want 993 00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:12,719 Speaker 1: they're gonna get rid of Tyler. Tyler Lockett doesn't make 994 00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:16,000 Speaker 1: a lot of money. He's a very affordable player who 995 00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:18,880 Speaker 1: is very productive. I love Tyler Lockett. I'll take him 996 00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:22,440 Speaker 1: in a blink, But I just don't really understand why 997 00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:24,520 Speaker 1: they're just going to hand him to the Patriots when 998 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:27,759 Speaker 1: he's under an affordable contract. DK Metcalf is still on 999 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:32,680 Speaker 1: his rookie deal. Like I heard our buddy Bighead talking 1000 00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:35,640 Speaker 1: about DK Metcalf, Patriots should make a run it. I'm like, oh, 1001 00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:38,440 Speaker 1: you know why he likes him now, But a lot 1002 00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:41,040 Speaker 1: of people like him. He's a really good player. I 1003 00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:43,520 Speaker 1: you know when I say I've been less impressed with him, 1004 00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:45,920 Speaker 1: I think his production has gone down a little bit. 1005 00:51:45,960 --> 00:51:49,160 Speaker 1: I think he's been kind of a diva at times 1006 00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:51,440 Speaker 1: on the sideline when he's not getting his touches and whatnot. 1007 00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:56,960 Speaker 1: Typical receiver. So, but why is Seattle gonna take some 1008 00:51:57,080 --> 00:51:59,080 Speaker 1: of the guys that, like Bobby Wagner was making a 1009 00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:01,600 Speaker 1: lot of money. I get that. And he's old and 1010 00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:06,680 Speaker 1: he's old, and he's old. Yeah, like, you know, yeah, 1011 00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:09,840 Speaker 1: if Seattle ahead, I was just gonna say, luck, it's 1012 00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:12,000 Speaker 1: it's impressive his you know, just his stats. I mean 1013 00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:15,840 Speaker 1: he's pretty much gotten better every single layer, extremely productive, 1014 00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:20,759 Speaker 1: has been has has missed one game in seven Seasons player. 1015 00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:23,160 Speaker 1: I really like the way he plays, and I think 1016 00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:25,920 Speaker 1: he'd be a really good patriot the way he plays. Um. 1017 00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 1: The other show, we were talking about the etymology of 1018 00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:33,960 Speaker 1: take a flyer. Yeah, and uh, you know, matta evidence 1019 00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:40,160 Speaker 1: about the flyer the American flyer sled. But that's not disputed, 1020 00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:44,560 Speaker 1: that's not worth Um. This is from David and he 1021 00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:47,480 Speaker 1: says the phrase is much older than the American flyer 1022 00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:50,160 Speaker 1: sleds with steal runners. I know you care about accuracy. 1023 00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:54,279 Speaker 1: So before there were stock exchanges, shares and companies were 1024 00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:58,200 Speaker 1: advertised by broadsheets handed out to wealthy people, who most 1025 00:52:58,280 --> 00:53:02,560 Speaker 1: often who often threw them away to fly in the wind. 1026 00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:06,240 Speaker 1: To take a flyer meant to invest in a speculative venture. 1027 00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:10,959 Speaker 1: A classic example is the East India Company Bubble, which 1028 00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:14,480 Speaker 1: bankrupted thousands and caused the British government to raise taxes, 1029 00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:20,440 Speaker 1: especially on its colonies, precipitating the American Revolution. Wow, okay, 1030 00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:24,920 Speaker 1: so I have questions. Hold that up there, don't I 1031 00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:29,280 Speaker 1: didn't get So he said, you know, take a flyer 1032 00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:34,560 Speaker 1: meant to take a risky and a speculative based on 1033 00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:37,359 Speaker 1: one of these broadsheets that you get. That's exactly what 1034 00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:40,279 Speaker 1: it means, like that's the meaning of the taking. I 1035 00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:42,600 Speaker 1: don't think there was ever any real question about what 1036 00:53:42,680 --> 00:53:47,000 Speaker 1: take a flyer means. No, but the broadsheet would have 1037 00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:51,160 Speaker 1: these speculative ventures written about invest in here, and so 1038 00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:53,319 Speaker 1: it's kind of to take a flyer. I think, like, 1039 00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:58,040 Speaker 1: here's the information, information and just grab it. I think 1040 00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 1: I think it's more along that line. No, but I 1041 00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:06,440 Speaker 1: mean the right, Oh, it absolutely is this. Maybe on 1042 00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:08,200 Speaker 1: your way to get the fight, you were on the 1043 00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:10,399 Speaker 1: you were on the sled and as you went by, 1044 00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:14,120 Speaker 1: you grabbed, grabbed the fly, right, so you're on. I 1045 00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:20,000 Speaker 1: mean it all comes to very rarely do any of that. Uh, oh, 1046 00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:23,080 Speaker 1: nice pass, Paul. It's still uh, it's still I find 1047 00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:26,759 Speaker 1: it jarring that Syracuse is not in the Big East. Yeah, 1048 00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:29,440 Speaker 1: and I look at it, especially this time of year. Yeah, 1049 00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:34,160 Speaker 1: it's weird. It's weird. Um. David Wisconsin writes in I 1050 00:54:34,239 --> 00:54:38,160 Speaker 1: know that the specific coaching responsibilities haven't been announced, but 1051 00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:41,400 Speaker 1: if Patricia and Judge don't work out and mac Jones 1052 00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:44,239 Speaker 1: and the offense take a significant step back, would that 1053 00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:47,360 Speaker 1: lead to Bill being on the hot seat with the Crafts? 1054 00:54:49,840 --> 00:54:52,759 Speaker 1: Depends on what what the record, Yeah, what's the record 1055 00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:54,680 Speaker 1: at the end of the well, I'm assuming if offense 1056 00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:56,840 Speaker 1: is not as good as last year, that great. I 1057 00:54:56,840 --> 00:54:58,640 Speaker 1: don't think you'll have any evidence. It's not going to 1058 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:00,200 Speaker 1: be in the playoffs. I don't think you're gonna have 1059 00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:02,840 Speaker 1: any evidence, like tangible evidence to point too. And it 1060 00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:06,920 Speaker 1: says Patricia and Judge didn't work out. No one knows 1061 00:55:06,920 --> 00:55:08,680 Speaker 1: what they're doing. You're not gonna know what they're doing. 1062 00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:11,960 Speaker 1: Mister Kraft will he will? Yeah? Yeah, I don't know. 1063 00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:17,719 Speaker 1: You don't know. I don't know. I don't know about that. Okay, uh, 1064 00:55:18,320 --> 00:55:20,759 Speaker 1: but but think about it. I think mister Kraft knows 1065 00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:24,759 Speaker 1: who the defensive coordinator is right now. Yeah, Um, I 1066 00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:27,000 Speaker 1: think I think he knows what the plan is. Oh, 1067 00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:29,080 Speaker 1: he might know what a plan is. I mean, you 1068 00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:31,319 Speaker 1: know who was the who was ultimately in charge last 1069 00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:36,040 Speaker 1: year the defense. Yes, I think really, And that's no 1070 00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:38,440 Speaker 1: slight to mister Craft obviously before I en end up 1071 00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:41,200 Speaker 1: getting myself fired. Yeah, Like, I'm just saying I think 1072 00:55:41,239 --> 00:55:45,040 Speaker 1: Bill is incredibly basis. Yeah, and I don't think. I 1073 00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:47,959 Speaker 1: mean I've seen enough on camera, like I can only 1074 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:51,040 Speaker 1: imagine what he does off camera based on how little 1075 00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:54,640 Speaker 1: information he gives the owner on camera. Yeah, that was 1076 00:55:54,880 --> 00:55:57,120 Speaker 1: over a decade ago. Though, Yeah, I don't think it's 1077 00:55:57,120 --> 00:56:00,719 Speaker 1: gotten any better. If you had to say better or 1078 00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:05,120 Speaker 1: worse since then, I would say yeah. But I mean, 1079 00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:07,839 Speaker 1: you know, I'm sure that Robert has a really good 1080 00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:12,399 Speaker 1: relationship with Gerod Mayo talks to him. Yeah, you know, right, 1081 00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:15,120 Speaker 1: so he'll find out somehow, have to be Bill necessarily 1082 00:56:15,160 --> 00:56:17,680 Speaker 1: telling him. I just think, and I think you're right, Fred. 1083 00:56:17,719 --> 00:56:20,080 Speaker 1: I think last year the mac Jones and the Patriots 1084 00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:21,840 Speaker 1: offense was average. I think, and that's and that's and 1085 00:56:21,880 --> 00:56:25,840 Speaker 1: there's nothing wrong with that. I mean, I think average 1086 00:56:25,880 --> 00:56:28,920 Speaker 1: was by average. But I think that fans are than 1087 00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:31,799 Speaker 1: invested in mac Jones and the offense. And I think, 1088 00:56:32,880 --> 00:56:35,240 Speaker 1: speaking for myself, I'll be more forgiving of the defense 1089 00:56:35,280 --> 00:56:37,640 Speaker 1: if it turns over and they play some guys. But 1090 00:56:37,719 --> 00:56:40,279 Speaker 1: I think if the offense isn't producing at least at 1091 00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:42,239 Speaker 1: an average level, I think that that's going to really 1092 00:56:42,560 --> 00:56:45,239 Speaker 1: racle the Is that a word, Rakle, Yeah, it's really 1093 00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:50,560 Speaker 1: gonna bug the fans. I mean, I think, but I 1094 00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:52,319 Speaker 1: think that I think that's the key. I think that's 1095 00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:55,120 Speaker 1: everything is And I said it before building around Mac Jones, 1096 00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 1: the offense ascending, but you know, getting to that level. 1097 00:56:57,440 --> 00:56:59,640 Speaker 1: If you want to compete with these teams in the AFC, 1098 00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:02,520 Speaker 1: you need to be able to say right now, like 1099 00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:05,319 Speaker 1: the path to the playoffs for the Patriots is not 1100 00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:08,640 Speaker 1: winning the AFC East, you know, because you got to 1101 00:57:08,680 --> 00:57:12,840 Speaker 1: beat the Dolphins and the problems. But that's why the 1102 00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:14,879 Speaker 1: denvers of the Indies of the world are what they've 1103 00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:17,560 Speaker 1: done in the last week's concerning right, because those are 1104 00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:20,720 Speaker 1: two teams that were behind you, right, that may be 1105 00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:23,320 Speaker 1: ahead of you now, right. I mean, in INDI's case, 1106 00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:26,200 Speaker 1: it was an average team that took you to the 1107 00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:30,120 Speaker 1: woodshed with a bad quarterback, right, and if they get 1108 00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:34,760 Speaker 1: Garoppolo or I don't know, Marcus Mariota, they might be 1109 00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,320 Speaker 1: better than you. Mike. I'm not saying they are not 1110 00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:40,560 Speaker 1: Felgren Mads and just automatically. No, there's another one, Mike. 1111 00:57:40,640 --> 00:57:42,560 Speaker 1: They're ahead of you now, Mike, I can't do it. 1112 00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:45,280 Speaker 1: You on that. Did Jimmy have the surgery yet? Yes 1113 00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:53,280 Speaker 1: he did, he did have it already. Ye, Jimmy feels good. Hero. 1114 00:57:53,440 --> 00:57:55,920 Speaker 1: Paul I can't get I can't get by Buffalo Miami. 1115 00:57:56,000 --> 00:57:58,160 Speaker 1: That's that's where my thoughts are you like, you know, hey, 1116 00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:01,280 Speaker 1: we run into the Indie and maybe makes a great point, 1117 00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:03,880 Speaker 1: but you lost too. There's another team that was behind 1118 00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:06,320 Speaker 1: you that beat you twice and finished one game back. 1119 00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:09,240 Speaker 1: That's true. That's a great point that Mike brings up 1120 00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:13,680 Speaker 1: with Miami.

Interesting, we're having us on Tuesday or 1352 01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:48,320 Speaker 1: Paul isn't like because he wasn't involved. He wanted to 1353 01:11:48,360 --> 01:11:50,760 Speaker 1: be involved in the Edleman one should have been, No, 1354 01:11:50,800 --> 01:11:53,639 Speaker 1: I didn't. You should have been why. Well, if someone 1355 01:11:53,680 --> 01:11:55,719 Speaker 1: asked me, yeah, I would have That's what I'm saying 1356 01:11:56,479 --> 01:12:03,040 Speaker 1: now it comes out. But if I was as if 1357 01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:05,880 Speaker 1: I was asked to do something, I wouldn't say no, 1358 01:12:05,920 --> 01:12:09,840 Speaker 1: I'm not doing it covered his whole career. Yeah, but 1359 01:12:09,880 --> 01:12:12,759 Speaker 1: I'm not any more qualified to ask questions than Matt 1360 01:12:12,840 --> 01:12:15,000 Speaker 1: is Matt. He probably knows you the best of all 1361 01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:17,320 Speaker 1: those guys though, right, but he probably knows Matt has 1362 01:12:17,360 --> 01:12:19,960 Speaker 1: great relationships with all of it whatever because they do 1363 01:12:20,080 --> 01:12:24,639 Speaker 1: the TV stuff with What about Bemo? Yeah? That mean anybody? Right? 1364 01:12:25,320 --> 01:12:28,000 Speaker 1: I mean due saw Edelman in the locker room once 1365 01:12:28,000 --> 01:12:31,200 Speaker 1: he has a better room once. Who's giving Paul gloves? 1366 01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:34,639 Speaker 1: It was? It was not a convenient time for me yesterday. 1367 01:12:35,160 --> 01:12:38,960 Speaker 1: I had to get home and uh witness the final 1368 01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:43,800 Speaker 1: game of my son's high school junior basketball career. Tough lost. 1369 01:12:43,840 --> 01:12:48,880 Speaker 1: Tough lost to eighty to seventy nine. They lost. That's 1370 01:12:48,880 --> 01:12:51,280 Speaker 1: a good question, that's it. We should get the etymology 1371 01:12:51,360 --> 01:12:55,160 Speaker 1: of that now too. He's a barn burner Yeah, there's 1372 01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:58,160 Speaker 1: so much activity, it's like a fire going on in 1373 01:12:58,200 --> 01:13:01,840 Speaker 1: the barn. It probably was something that happened in a barn. 1374 01:13:02,240 --> 01:13:05,920 Speaker 1: You just have barn storming games, remember those, And then 1375 01:13:05,960 --> 01:13:08,599 Speaker 1: there was probably one of those games that ended up 1376 01:13:08,600 --> 01:13:13,479 Speaker 1: in a fire barn. Probably, yeah, right, and find out 1377 01:13:13,520 --> 01:13:16,439 Speaker 1: only we had a way to find out. Yemy in 1378 01:13:16,479 --> 01:13:19,960 Speaker 1: Texas writes in at web Radio at Patriots dot Com. 1379 01:13:19,960 --> 01:13:23,639 Speaker 1: He says, let's say Josh McDaniels really likes mac Jones 1380 01:13:23,960 --> 01:13:26,800 Speaker 1: and he offers to trade Derek Carr for him. Would 1381 01:13:26,800 --> 01:13:29,280 Speaker 1: you do that trade? And which team has to give 1382 01:13:29,360 --> 01:13:32,760 Speaker 1: up something extra? I think the Patriots. Mac Jones for 1383 01:13:32,840 --> 01:13:35,280 Speaker 1: Derek Carry straight up, The Patriots would have to give 1384 01:13:35,360 --> 01:13:39,280 Speaker 1: up something Actually, I think so, But I honestly don't 1385 01:13:39,320 --> 01:13:43,240 Speaker 1: think that either team would be interested in that trade. Well, 1386 01:13:43,520 --> 01:13:46,200 Speaker 1: there's a new factor in Las Vegas, and it is 1387 01:13:46,280 --> 01:13:50,080 Speaker 1: Josh McDaniels, And like, what if he does love mac Jones? 1388 01:13:50,680 --> 01:13:55,559 Speaker 1: You know, I know I understood the question, But be 1389 01:13:55,560 --> 01:13:58,760 Speaker 1: a tough move for Josh. Second, I mean, it's a 1390 01:13:58,880 --> 01:14:01,960 Speaker 1: very well thought out hype article. Josh loves mac Jones 1391 01:14:02,000 --> 01:14:05,160 Speaker 1: and he's going to get him if he can, Like, well, 1392 01:14:05,439 --> 01:14:08,360 Speaker 1: that's a I mean, that's a plausible scenario, absolutely. But 1393 01:14:08,400 --> 01:14:10,479 Speaker 1: if that's the case, then I think he's coming, and 1394 01:14:10,520 --> 01:14:13,280 Speaker 1: he probably might, even though I think the Patriots, if 1395 01:14:13,320 --> 01:14:15,760 Speaker 1: you estacted apples to apples, the Patriots might give more. 1396 01:14:15,800 --> 01:14:18,120 Speaker 1: But if Josh really wants them, then they kind of 1397 01:14:18,120 --> 01:14:19,559 Speaker 1: have them where they want them. They can ask what 1398 01:14:19,560 --> 01:14:21,719 Speaker 1: they want. Yeah, I don't think would be like mac 1399 01:14:21,800 --> 01:14:24,080 Speaker 1: Jones and two ones for Derek Carr or anything like that. 1400 01:14:24,120 --> 01:14:26,200 Speaker 1: I just think they would have to throw something in. Yeah. 1401 01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:28,680 Speaker 1: I agree with Paul though, I think that would be 1402 01:14:28,960 --> 01:14:32,559 Speaker 1: kill Harry. Yeah. I don't think either team would want 1403 01:14:32,600 --> 01:14:35,559 Speaker 1: that though, especially with what's going on in that division 1404 01:14:35,560 --> 01:14:38,000 Speaker 1: out west, now, Like, are you really going to trust 1405 01:14:38,000 --> 01:14:41,200 Speaker 1: your fate to this guy going to his second year 1406 01:14:41,240 --> 01:14:44,840 Speaker 1: as opposed to a more veteran, established, uh you know, 1407 01:14:44,920 --> 01:14:48,280 Speaker 1: reliable leader in Carr. I mean, your better chance of 1408 01:14:48,320 --> 01:14:51,160 Speaker 1: winning would be with him. The part of the hypothetical 1409 01:14:51,240 --> 01:14:54,400 Speaker 1: that does make it different is Josh obviously doesn't have 1410 01:14:54,400 --> 01:14:58,479 Speaker 1: those concerns about Mac Jones. Yeah right under under this 1411 01:14:58,680 --> 01:15:02,080 Speaker 1: under yeah right, So yeah, I mean I guess it 1412 01:15:02,120 --> 01:15:06,920 Speaker 1: could happen. I just don't I don't think that I 1413 01:15:06,920 --> 01:15:08,519 Speaker 1: don't think Bill would want to trade for a guy 1414 01:15:08,560 --> 01:15:10,800 Speaker 1: who you'd have to then give a contract too, and 1415 01:15:10,880 --> 01:15:13,679 Speaker 1: I think that's the deal. Brander Tony says, I've emailed 1416 01:15:13,680 --> 01:15:15,880 Speaker 1: the show a few times during the past two year 1417 01:15:16,120 --> 01:15:21,320 Speaker 1: years that this is a three to five year rebuild. Frankly, 1418 01:15:21,360 --> 01:15:24,200 Speaker 1: I think at this point it's still a three to 1419 01:15:24,280 --> 01:15:27,439 Speaker 1: five year rebuild. The camere was wasted in terms of 1420 01:15:27,439 --> 01:15:30,920 Speaker 1: a rebuild, and the team is so bereft of young 1421 01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:34,520 Speaker 1: talent in their prime or on the verge of breaking out, 1422 01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:37,320 Speaker 1: and so lacking in speed that it's going to take 1423 01:15:37,360 --> 01:15:40,120 Speaker 1: that many years to become a serious contender and a 1424 01:15:40,200 --> 01:15:44,000 Speaker 1: stacked AFC. And that's assuming drafts like last year and 1425 01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:47,000 Speaker 1: a couple of free agents who are actual difference makers, 1426 01:15:47,080 --> 01:15:53,439 Speaker 1: not jags or even competent players welcome to the middle. Yeah, 1427 01:15:53,479 --> 01:15:55,200 Speaker 1: that's what it is, I mean, and I agree, But 1428 01:15:55,360 --> 01:15:57,320 Speaker 1: that's that's where they're at. They've got to hit these 1429 01:15:57,360 --> 01:16:00,880 Speaker 1: draft picks. And I think it's interesting though, that point 1430 01:16:00,920 --> 01:16:02,880 Speaker 1: of like twenty twenty being a last year, because I 1431 01:16:02,880 --> 01:16:05,080 Speaker 1: think at the time I was seeing twenty twenty as 1432 01:16:05,520 --> 01:16:07,240 Speaker 1: more of a reset than it really was, because I 1433 01:16:07,280 --> 01:16:10,800 Speaker 1: thought you were establishing who can play and who can 1434 01:16:10,920 --> 01:16:14,120 Speaker 1: and we can then elevate those guys. And as we 1435 01:16:14,160 --> 01:16:16,000 Speaker 1: talked about last year, it didn't really happen. They went 1436 01:16:16,000 --> 01:16:17,799 Speaker 1: back to the well with some of the older guys. 1437 01:16:17,880 --> 01:16:20,559 Speaker 1: So you know, is it going to happen now? Yeah? 1438 01:16:20,600 --> 01:16:24,160 Speaker 1: It seemed like they were conflicted the last two years, 1439 01:16:24,160 --> 01:16:26,479 Speaker 1: like do we want to rebuild or do we want 1440 01:16:26,479 --> 01:16:29,680 Speaker 1: to compete? Can we kind of go? Can we do 1441 01:16:29,720 --> 01:16:30,960 Speaker 1: a little bit of both? And I don't think you 1442 01:16:30,960 --> 01:16:32,120 Speaker 1: can do a little bit of both. I think you 1443 01:16:32,200 --> 01:16:34,760 Speaker 1: have to try to pick one or the other. Can't 1444 01:16:34,800 --> 01:16:39,880 Speaker 1: be a little pregnant, right, Josh and Turners falls Massachusetts 1445 01:16:39,960 --> 01:16:43,240 Speaker 1: rights in This is my first shot at who am 1446 01:16:43,280 --> 01:16:45,920 Speaker 1: I gamed? Oh? And what better way to start than 1447 01:16:46,040 --> 01:16:48,479 Speaker 1: with some of my favorite players. Though they are not 1448 01:16:48,560 --> 01:16:52,320 Speaker 1: the most high profile guys necessarily, but these are Patriots. 1449 01:16:52,320 --> 01:16:55,479 Speaker 1: Bring it on. First, one, ready, we know the rules. 1450 01:16:55,720 --> 01:16:59,160 Speaker 1: You get one guest, you're wrong, you're out right. First, 1451 01:16:59,400 --> 01:17:04,799 Speaker 1: I'm currently an analyst for the Big ten Network. Second, 1452 01:17:05,360 --> 01:17:08,280 Speaker 1: I was a key contributor to LT's famous and maybe 1453 01:17:08,280 --> 01:17:15,559 Speaker 1: that comes from their coach quote, this is a former Patriot. Yeah, okay. Third, 1454 01:17:16,280 --> 01:17:19,280 Speaker 1: and everyone might get it now. I played my college 1455 01:17:19,320 --> 01:17:26,120 Speaker 1: ball at Purdue Rob Nikovich, Rosie, it all makes sense 1456 01:17:26,160 --> 01:17:29,120 Speaker 1: now he doesn't work for the Big ten network. Nikovich. 1457 01:17:29,240 --> 01:17:32,799 Speaker 1: That is next one for last year, I was inducted 1458 01:17:32,840 --> 01:17:36,080 Speaker 1: into the Mississippi Community in Junior College Hall of Fame. 1459 01:17:37,439 --> 01:17:43,960 Speaker 1: M Malcolm Butler. Nope, Um when I out? Yeah, huh yeah, 1460 01:17:44,360 --> 01:17:47,519 Speaker 1: you're out. When drafted out of Houston, I was twenty 1461 01:17:47,520 --> 01:17:52,320 Speaker 1: five years old, Sebastian woman. No, it's down to Paul. 1462 01:17:53,439 --> 01:17:55,080 Speaker 1: I'll take all the time I need play. I won 1463 01:17:55,160 --> 01:17:57,439 Speaker 1: two rings with the Patriots and OH one and oh 1464 01:17:57,560 --> 01:18:05,200 Speaker 1: three of Houston one and all three drafted out of 1465 01:18:05,240 --> 01:18:17,080 Speaker 1: Houston twenty five. Give up the time Antoine Smith draft him. Now, 1466 01:18:17,120 --> 01:18:19,400 Speaker 1: he didn't say that. He didn't say the Patriots said 1467 01:18:19,400 --> 01:18:22,280 Speaker 1: he was drafted. He was drafted by the Bills. Yeah, 1468 01:18:23,240 --> 01:18:25,920 Speaker 1: it is not really Yeah, I mean I think were 1469 01:18:25,960 --> 01:18:29,080 Speaker 1: implied that it was Button Hotel Roosevel Covin wasn't drafted 1470 01:18:29,080 --> 01:18:31,360 Speaker 1: by the Patriots. He didn't say that anyone I know. 1471 01:18:31,439 --> 01:18:34,360 Speaker 1: But if he'd said he got drafted, he didn't. But 1472 01:18:34,360 --> 01:18:37,080 Speaker 1: it didn't he That's that's a perfect point to illustrate 1473 01:18:37,120 --> 01:18:39,800 Speaker 1: my confusion. He didn't say he was drafted out of 1474 01:18:39,800 --> 01:18:43,240 Speaker 1: Purdue to imply that the Patriots drafted Mary. He just 1475 01:18:43,320 --> 01:18:45,680 Speaker 1: said he played his college ball at Purdue and when 1476 01:18:45,720 --> 01:18:48,000 Speaker 1: he got to dance on Smith, he was drafted. Are fine, 1477 01:18:48,120 --> 01:18:51,320 Speaker 1: I think it's fine. It's okay. Um, next one, ok. 1478 01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:54,479 Speaker 1: I have a brief cameo in the movie Stuck on 1479 01:18:54,560 --> 01:18:57,840 Speaker 1: You next to another slightly more famous New England star. 1480 01:19:00,160 --> 01:19:02,479 Speaker 1: Was like, I can't know. I no, no, I've seen 1481 01:19:02,520 --> 01:19:06,080 Speaker 1: that movie incredibly, I know where the bigger star is. 1482 01:19:06,120 --> 01:19:10,760 Speaker 1: But second, despite Belichick's recommendations that I get the starting role, 1483 01:19:10,880 --> 01:19:22,480 Speaker 1: Coach Parcels instead went with Terry Ray. Now I'm off 1484 01:19:24,320 --> 01:19:29,439 Speaker 1: remember that Terry teeth Like, I think, I think you 1485 01:19:29,920 --> 01:19:33,839 Speaker 1: everyone should get this. In the first one, yeah, pressure, 1486 01:19:34,520 --> 01:19:40,080 Speaker 1: my mother was a semi famous musician in Yes, Eric, 1487 01:19:40,760 --> 01:19:44,639 Speaker 1: very good, Eric Ing ding ding dinging, Yes, okay, well 1488 01:19:44,680 --> 01:19:49,080 Speaker 1: thanks for the game, Josh and Turners falls very good, excellent, 1489 01:19:50,160 --> 01:19:52,479 Speaker 1: you know good. You messed up, Paul, so he said, 1490 01:19:52,520 --> 01:19:54,400 Speaker 1: you know you didn't do it right, But I just said, 1491 01:19:54,479 --> 01:19:57,880 Speaker 1: excellent job. I literally just said the words excellent job. 1492 01:19:58,439 --> 01:20:01,320 Speaker 1: A little excessive if I it was even one of 1493 01:20:01,360 --> 01:20:05,679 Speaker 1: the better ones, because they weren't easy. Yeah, yeah, required 1494 01:20:05,720 --> 01:20:09,479 Speaker 1: some thought and we split, yes, one one and one 1495 01:20:09,520 --> 01:20:12,720 Speaker 1: and one. No one got rashot from Baltimore, writing in 1496 01:20:13,320 --> 01:20:15,840 Speaker 1: I like versatility. You know you call something more you 1497 01:20:15,880 --> 01:20:18,640 Speaker 1: can write sometimes. I like that. I like that, he 1498 01:20:18,680 --> 01:20:21,000 Speaker 1: says with Russell Wilson going to the Broncos. In terms 1499 01:20:21,040 --> 01:20:24,400 Speaker 1: of the AFC hierarchy, where would you put the Patriots 1500 01:20:24,400 --> 01:20:29,040 Speaker 1: as of now? M m, it's just the AFC all right, 1501 01:20:29,280 --> 01:20:31,040 Speaker 1: So it's just off the top of our heads without 1502 01:20:31,080 --> 01:20:34,080 Speaker 1: giving it a lot of fun. Who's better? Buffalo better 1503 01:20:34,560 --> 01:20:40,879 Speaker 1: you think? Yes? Yes, okay, Cincinnati, yes, okay, Tennessee yes, 1504 01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:46,000 Speaker 1: Kansas City, yes, all right. Now we'll go to second 1505 01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:49,519 Speaker 1: place teams. Miami no as of right now? Yes, no, no, 1506 01:20:49,520 --> 01:20:52,960 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna argue top of your head. Were doing 1507 01:20:53,280 --> 01:20:56,880 Speaker 1: We lost to them twice? Ye okay, Baltimore, yes, no, 1508 01:20:58,560 --> 01:21:09,840 Speaker 1: he's tough. Indianapolis right now? No? But Denver yes, yes, okay. Um, 1509 01:21:09,880 --> 01:21:16,880 Speaker 1: no one else is talking about the Chargers, Uh, Cleveland no, No, 1510 01:21:17,160 --> 01:21:22,160 Speaker 1: No one in the South no. Um the Chargers. Yes, okay. 1511 01:21:22,400 --> 01:21:24,360 Speaker 1: It's interesting you put the Charges ahead of them as 1512 01:21:24,400 --> 01:21:26,240 Speaker 1: a non playoff because I know I got the teams 1513 01:21:26,240 --> 01:21:30,080 Speaker 1: that have better talent than shut up. I shut up 1514 01:21:30,120 --> 01:21:33,920 Speaker 1: you so seventh according to that. Now, I would put 1515 01:21:33,960 --> 01:21:37,040 Speaker 1: them lower than that because I would have India ahead 1516 01:21:37,080 --> 01:21:40,000 Speaker 1: of them, and I would have Baltimore ahead of them. 1517 01:21:40,040 --> 01:21:42,000 Speaker 1: I think Baltimore was eight and three in rolling and 1518 01:21:42,000 --> 01:21:44,080 Speaker 1: they just lost the entire team. Yeah, I think they had. 1519 01:21:44,240 --> 01:21:47,120 Speaker 1: They have more talent from which they'll never return. Maybe 1520 01:21:47,160 --> 01:21:52,000 Speaker 1: you're right, eight seven, eight nine, playoff cups. It's gonna 1521 01:21:52,040 --> 01:21:54,160 Speaker 1: be tough. Yeah, it is, and this is of course, 1522 01:21:54,360 --> 01:21:56,479 Speaker 1: there are so many unknowns, not only with the Patriots, 1523 01:21:56,520 --> 01:21:58,479 Speaker 1: with other teams too, so it'll change very much in 1524 01:21:58,479 --> 01:22:00,559 Speaker 1: the two weeks. And we all know Deuce hasn't more 1525 01:22:00,720 --> 01:22:03,360 Speaker 1: like ten because he has Miami as well. That's right. 1526 01:22:04,360 --> 01:22:06,840 Speaker 1: Anthony from Delaware tends to look at things in a 1527 01:22:06,920 --> 01:22:09,720 Speaker 1: negative way. Yeah, Anthony from Delaware, sorry for sending this 1528 01:22:09,760 --> 01:22:12,320 Speaker 1: email early, but working the graveyard shift. Won't be up 1529 01:22:12,320 --> 01:22:15,479 Speaker 1: for the live show. A few questions regarding Kaylee. Do 1530 01:22:15,479 --> 01:22:18,040 Speaker 1: you guys remember what your thoughts on Josh was when 1531 01:22:18,040 --> 01:22:21,200 Speaker 1: he first started calling plays. I was a casual football 1532 01:22:21,200 --> 01:22:23,840 Speaker 1: fan back then, and I don't really remember having an 1533 01:22:23,840 --> 01:22:27,800 Speaker 1: opinion either way. Yeah, I didn't know that much about him. 1534 01:22:27,880 --> 01:22:30,599 Speaker 1: I didn't really know anything. I mean, and I didn't 1535 01:22:30,600 --> 01:22:32,880 Speaker 1: really have any concerns we were looking at There's a 1536 01:22:32,920 --> 01:22:34,920 Speaker 1: huge reason I didn't have any concern already was here. 1537 01:22:35,600 --> 01:22:38,360 Speaker 1: You know, we were wondering where is John Carroll and 1538 01:22:38,400 --> 01:22:40,920 Speaker 1: what is that all? Well, he also didn't get just wondering, 1539 01:22:40,960 --> 01:22:42,840 Speaker 1: you know, Tom Brady entering the prime of his career 1540 01:22:44,040 --> 01:22:46,320 Speaker 1: about it. I got a quarterback who's won three titles. 1541 01:22:46,960 --> 01:22:49,400 Speaker 1: I think he can he can share the us Paul 1542 01:22:49,439 --> 01:22:52,360 Speaker 1: that point, because you know, I remember what a grand 1543 01:22:52,400 --> 01:22:55,360 Speaker 1: exit it was for Romeo Cornell and Charlie Weiss at 1544 01:22:55,400 --> 01:22:58,200 Speaker 1: the same time. So it's and it wasn't didn't blink. 1545 01:22:58,560 --> 01:23:00,080 Speaker 1: I don't want to say it was a non story. 1546 01:23:00,120 --> 01:23:02,479 Speaker 1: It wasn't a non story. There was no panic in 1547 01:23:02,520 --> 01:23:05,960 Speaker 1: the streets. Brad, would you agree it was Tom Brady? Yeah, 1548 01:23:05,960 --> 01:23:07,720 Speaker 1: and Belichick too. I mean at that point you were 1549 01:23:07,760 --> 01:23:09,320 Speaker 1: just they hadn't lost the playoff game. I mean, they 1550 01:23:09,320 --> 01:23:12,200 Speaker 1: were whatever it was. In addition to that, that OH 1551 01:23:12,320 --> 01:23:15,599 Speaker 1: four team, I think historically is one of the most 1552 01:23:15,640 --> 01:23:19,559 Speaker 1: underrated teams in terms of sheer talent. Yeah, I don't 1553 01:23:19,600 --> 01:23:22,160 Speaker 1: think it gets its due among the greatest teams ever. 1554 01:23:22,280 --> 01:23:26,120 Speaker 1: That team was so good and obviously you're coming off 1555 01:23:26,120 --> 01:23:29,599 Speaker 1: of that team, you're thinking, you're just gonna keep it rolling. Now, 1556 01:23:29,640 --> 01:23:31,920 Speaker 1: they had some adversity that hit. I think that was 1557 01:23:31,960 --> 01:23:33,479 Speaker 1: the year. Wasn't that the year that Bruski had a 1558 01:23:33,520 --> 01:23:36,840 Speaker 1: stroke coming back coming back from OH four? Right? It 1559 01:23:36,920 --> 01:23:38,640 Speaker 1: was the it was early. It was like, well he 1560 01:23:38,680 --> 01:23:44,600 Speaker 1: had a right. Yeah, so some thing's happened. Obviously that 1561 01:23:45,360 --> 01:23:47,720 Speaker 1: affected the talent level of the O five team, But 1562 01:23:48,800 --> 01:23:51,080 Speaker 1: they had just won three out of four. They had 1563 01:23:51,120 --> 01:23:54,320 Speaker 1: a young nucleus. It wasn't just all old players. And 1564 01:23:54,400 --> 01:23:57,720 Speaker 1: they had some old guys like McGinnis and Bruski and 1565 01:23:57,520 --> 01:24:00,400 Speaker 1: and those kinds of guys, but they still had plenty 1566 01:24:00,439 --> 01:24:03,200 Speaker 1: of guys like Seymour and Will Fork and guys that 1567 01:24:03,240 --> 01:24:06,320 Speaker 1: were still in their prime. Yeah. I think people thought 1568 01:24:06,439 --> 01:24:08,400 Speaker 1: they're just gonna keep this ball, and they did. I mean, 1569 01:24:08,400 --> 01:24:10,559 Speaker 1: they were still really good to know five, really good 1570 01:24:10,560 --> 01:24:13,120 Speaker 1: to know six, not as good as they had should 1571 01:24:13,120 --> 01:24:15,800 Speaker 1: have won the Super Bowl one. Then they yeah, they 1572 01:24:15,800 --> 01:24:20,960 Speaker 1: should have the cops. And then they reloaded because they 1573 01:24:21,000 --> 01:24:24,280 Speaker 1: realized I didn't win because I didn't have enough playmakers 1574 01:24:24,320 --> 01:24:27,320 Speaker 1: on offense, and they went out and spent money got 1575 01:24:27,360 --> 01:24:30,080 Speaker 1: them and came thirty seconds away from going nineteen, And 1576 01:24:30,360 --> 01:24:32,960 Speaker 1: Anthony also says when is the next time we're supposed 1577 01:24:32,960 --> 01:24:35,040 Speaker 1: to hear from Bill and will he put out a 1578 01:24:35,080 --> 01:24:37,800 Speaker 1: statement before about the bflow thing so he can say 1579 01:24:37,840 --> 01:24:42,400 Speaker 1: his favorite line. Yeah, I already discussed that draft. Yeah no, uh, 1580 01:24:42,800 --> 01:24:46,720 Speaker 1: I would imagine the annual meeting at the end of 1581 01:24:46,720 --> 01:24:50,040 Speaker 1: this month. I also two more things we have not 1582 01:24:50,080 --> 01:24:52,360 Speaker 1: talked about that yet. Yeah, two more things from Anthony. 1583 01:24:52,600 --> 01:24:55,040 Speaker 1: Would you take high Tower back as a hand in 1584 01:24:55,080 --> 01:24:58,799 Speaker 1: the dirt linebacker if the money worked out for both sides, 1585 01:24:59,400 --> 01:25:00,960 Speaker 1: as a hand in the dirt line But does that 1586 01:25:01,080 --> 01:25:04,880 Speaker 1: even mean no? No, no, I thought like an edge guy. No, no, 1587 01:25:04,920 --> 01:25:07,760 Speaker 1: I think definitely not. I think he would be like 1588 01:25:07,960 --> 01:25:10,080 Speaker 1: Brian Cox in a one He'd be like a thumper 1589 01:25:10,160 --> 01:25:13,000 Speaker 1: middle linebacker and and maybe comes off the field on 1590 01:25:13,160 --> 01:25:15,240 Speaker 1: on Thirday. If money was no factor, I would take 1591 01:25:15,280 --> 01:25:17,479 Speaker 1: him back as that. I would rather not. I would 1592 01:25:17,560 --> 01:25:20,040 Speaker 1: rather just get young. I would rather see what these 1593 01:25:20,040 --> 01:25:23,120 Speaker 1: guys could do. Absolutely, but I would take him back 1594 01:25:23,200 --> 01:25:26,200 Speaker 1: in a in a cheap role that he was willing 1595 01:25:26,240 --> 01:25:30,000 Speaker 1: to shill. And finally, when does the schedule come out? 1596 01:25:30,080 --> 01:25:33,680 Speaker 1: Eric U? And may now that the new h that's 1597 01:25:33,760 --> 01:25:36,680 Speaker 1: the new annual tradition, not other anymore. After the he's 1598 01:25:36,680 --> 01:25:38,960 Speaker 1: supposed to get upset, he's supposed to get irritated. Well, 1599 01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:42,679 Speaker 1: he has changed. So I believe Eric was showing personal girl, 1600 01:25:42,720 --> 01:25:45,720 Speaker 1: thank you, thank you, thank you. Is is it your 1601 01:25:45,760 --> 01:25:49,040 Speaker 1: diet that's changed you? No, just wait till you get older. 1602 01:25:49,080 --> 01:25:52,360 Speaker 1: You get older. Are you taking supplements? No? No, I 1603 01:25:52,360 --> 01:25:55,360 Speaker 1: gotta I gotta go at that. Just wait till they 1604 01:25:55,360 --> 01:25:59,320 Speaker 1: trade down in April on the draft. Oh yeah, yeah, 1605 01:26:00,080 --> 01:26:05,320 Speaker 1: unto that personal girl, I don't know. I've never heard. 1606 01:26:05,479 --> 01:26:07,840 Speaker 1: I'm like five ten, I've never heard you say I 1607 01:26:07,840 --> 01:26:10,960 Speaker 1: have to go on a diet before. Oh, I've said 1608 01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:13,519 Speaker 1: it many acknowledges he heard, just doesn't want to do. 1609 01:26:13,600 --> 01:26:15,920 Speaker 1: I've acknowledged that I need to lose about thirty pounds 1610 01:26:16,120 --> 01:26:18,320 Speaker 1: a hundred times. Never at the start of the pandemic 1611 01:26:18,439 --> 01:26:20,680 Speaker 1: and I started running a little bit. Yeah yeah, you 1612 01:26:20,800 --> 01:26:22,920 Speaker 1: started body and I wanted to work out, and my 1613 01:26:23,000 --> 01:26:25,519 Speaker 1: mom called, so they went down. You should get that. 1614 01:26:25,680 --> 01:26:28,479 Speaker 1: You should get that tonal thing that's on TV. What's 1615 01:26:28,520 --> 01:26:36,240 Speaker 1: that now? You like that vibrating thing like that old 1616 01:26:39,320 --> 01:26:42,280 Speaker 1: I just worked out, I'm all right, and then I 1617 01:26:42,280 --> 01:26:44,120 Speaker 1: would love to be able to lose weight without doing 1618 01:26:44,120 --> 01:26:47,400 Speaker 1: anything and for all they had that contraption that you 1619 01:26:47,439 --> 01:26:49,280 Speaker 1: go in and just your head pops out and it's 1620 01:26:49,280 --> 01:26:52,439 Speaker 1: like it's it steems the fat off or something. It 1621 01:26:52,560 --> 01:26:55,320 Speaker 1: really seems seen that one I saw it and today 1622 01:26:55,360 --> 01:26:59,120 Speaker 1: for a qby advice guy, have you seen that? It's you. 1623 01:26:59,520 --> 01:27:02,439 Speaker 1: I think it's called QB cub I. I I think 1624 01:27:02,760 --> 01:27:05,880 Speaker 1: it's this like it's like a foot pedal kind of thing. 1625 01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:07,920 Speaker 1: So you oh, you said at your dad they had 1626 01:27:07,960 --> 01:27:10,200 Speaker 1: that for a while. Yeah, I've never seen that before though. 1627 01:27:10,200 --> 01:27:13,400 Speaker 1: But it's like you're working like you're but muscles in 1628 01:27:13,400 --> 01:27:16,360 Speaker 1: your legs. Yeah. When I got it, it's like walking desks. 1629 01:27:16,400 --> 01:27:19,080 Speaker 1: I see people walking deaths on walking desk that I 1630 01:27:19,080 --> 01:27:21,640 Speaker 1: would fall on my face. Remember when somebody had the 1631 01:27:21,680 --> 01:27:24,439 Speaker 1: idea to have the desk with the treadmill, and friend 1632 01:27:24,520 --> 01:27:26,080 Speaker 1: was like, I'm gonna get that from my office. I 1633 01:27:26,400 --> 01:27:29,559 Speaker 1: actually gotta. I actually got approval for that. I never 1634 01:27:29,640 --> 01:27:32,640 Speaker 1: got it, trigger I never I never got I was like, no, 1635 01:27:33,439 --> 01:27:36,320 Speaker 1: I'll become like I'll become a caged animal. People will 1636 01:27:36,360 --> 01:27:39,559 Speaker 1: be like walking by just just acting like an ass. 1637 01:27:39,960 --> 01:27:42,320 Speaker 1: They don't already do that, you know. I was like, 1638 01:27:42,439 --> 01:27:45,160 Speaker 1: let's go watch friend on his hamster over here. Yeah, 1639 01:27:45,320 --> 01:27:48,519 Speaker 1: I get in great shape, be a spectacle when you 1640 01:27:48,840 --> 01:27:51,280 Speaker 1: walking by, and like friends like face planting on the floor, 1641 01:27:51,479 --> 01:27:59,120 Speaker 1: like blood coming out of my head. Uh. We haven't 1642 01:27:59,160 --> 01:28:04,040 Speaker 1: heard from a while Wars and Camp Pendleton. Yeah rah, 1643 01:28:04,960 --> 01:28:11,040 Speaker 1: sorry a long time. Yeah. On that note, Uh, I 1644 01:28:11,040 --> 01:28:15,240 Speaker 1: did during the holiday season think that I should call 1645 01:28:15,320 --> 01:28:17,960 Speaker 1: in and offer you guys a lunch. And I looked 1646 01:28:17,960 --> 01:28:20,599 Speaker 1: at the calendar. It's been three months, so I would 1647 01:28:20,600 --> 01:28:22,840 Speaker 1: be happy to catch back up with Matt after Oh 1648 01:28:22,880 --> 01:28:25,280 Speaker 1: you don't have yeah you don't. You don't have to 1649 01:28:25,320 --> 01:28:34,680 Speaker 1: do that large pepperoni No, right after my diet. Yeah, 1650 01:28:34,720 --> 01:28:36,800 Speaker 1: I'll hold my breath for that one fall. Yeah, but um, 1651 01:28:36,920 --> 01:28:42,000 Speaker 1: good job. Uh, good question here for you guys. I 1652 01:28:42,000 --> 01:28:44,559 Speaker 1: don't know if you were talking about Romeo and Charlie 1653 01:28:44,640 --> 01:28:47,760 Speaker 1: much earlier than when I was just like hold but uh, 1654 01:28:48,640 --> 01:28:50,920 Speaker 1: that was something I wanted to talk about, just based 1655 01:28:50,920 --> 01:28:54,599 Speaker 1: off of Fred's point on Tuesday, which I do agree 1656 01:28:54,600 --> 01:28:58,599 Speaker 1: with him, and I uh, I guess my question is 1657 01:28:59,040 --> 01:29:04,080 Speaker 1: have you thought about how happy you might have been 1658 01:29:04,080 --> 01:29:09,360 Speaker 1: to get Romeo or Charlie back, say in nine or ten, 1659 01:29:10,160 --> 01:29:12,960 Speaker 1: even after unsuccessful stints. I think both of them were 1660 01:29:13,560 --> 01:29:16,120 Speaker 1: well under five hundred head coaches, and then went back 1661 01:29:16,120 --> 01:29:20,040 Speaker 1: to the coordinators elsewhere. Would you have liked to get 1662 01:29:20,040 --> 01:29:22,599 Speaker 1: either of those guys back, Well, me, oh, sure, both 1663 01:29:22,600 --> 01:29:23,840 Speaker 1: of them. I would have taken it back because I 1664 01:29:23,880 --> 01:29:26,920 Speaker 1: think they were both wildly successful as coordinators, unlike the 1665 01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:31,280 Speaker 1: guys that have come back this time. Okay, but what 1666 01:29:31,320 --> 01:29:34,840 Speaker 1: if they don't come back as coordinators? Out these guys 1667 01:29:34,840 --> 01:29:38,080 Speaker 1: aren't coming back as coordinators. I would welcome them back, 1668 01:29:38,240 --> 01:29:40,519 Speaker 1: is what I'm saying. I don't think Matt Patricia was 1669 01:29:40,560 --> 01:29:42,519 Speaker 1: a good defensive coordinator, so I'm not all that excited 1670 01:29:42,520 --> 01:29:46,040 Speaker 1: that he's back on the staff. I mean, it's pretty simple. 1671 01:29:46,400 --> 01:29:49,920 Speaker 1: This is my point about all of these discussions. And 1672 01:29:50,880 --> 01:29:52,720 Speaker 1: from one of pause shows, I will take, you know, 1673 01:29:52,920 --> 01:29:55,559 Speaker 1: a Felgar point that you know, you have to do 1674 01:29:55,600 --> 01:29:57,920 Speaker 1: the show every day. You can't just wait to see 1675 01:29:57,920 --> 01:30:01,080 Speaker 1: how things turn out. But we have really limited information. 1676 01:30:01,120 --> 01:30:03,080 Speaker 1: But I think the one thing we do know is 1677 01:30:03,120 --> 01:30:08,200 Speaker 1: that these two teams, the Giants and the Lions, and 1678 01:30:08,560 --> 01:30:11,840 Speaker 1: actually I mean I actually include Mayo under this, all 1679 01:30:11,960 --> 01:30:16,160 Speaker 1: three of these coaches, Judge, Patricia and Mayo I mean 1680 01:30:16,320 --> 01:30:19,920 Speaker 1: candidates war head coaching jobs, and two of them won 1681 01:30:20,000 --> 01:30:23,160 Speaker 1: those jobs. So I find it interesting that, like we 1682 01:30:23,160 --> 01:30:26,679 Speaker 1: don't consider now, maybe those teams made awful mistakes obviously 1683 01:30:26,720 --> 01:30:29,679 Speaker 1: their performance, but they had what it took to get 1684 01:30:29,680 --> 01:30:32,320 Speaker 1: elevated to that level. And we all think, oh, we'd 1685 01:30:32,320 --> 01:30:34,479 Speaker 1: love to get b Flow back, love to get Jimmy 1686 01:30:34,920 --> 01:30:37,640 Speaker 1: Billy O'Brien back, And I just think it's it's a 1687 01:30:37,640 --> 01:30:39,599 Speaker 1: little bit of like we do. We have a very 1688 01:30:39,640 --> 01:30:42,120 Speaker 1: small slit in the information, and the first thing I 1689 01:30:42,160 --> 01:30:45,360 Speaker 1: think is to take the most negative spin on it. Yeah. Now, 1690 01:30:45,400 --> 01:30:48,240 Speaker 1: to me, it's very simple and I don't have to 1691 01:30:48,240 --> 01:30:50,760 Speaker 1: go on one of my soliloquies like I sometimes do. 1692 01:30:51,320 --> 01:30:53,519 Speaker 1: I think that Bill O'Brien was a really good assistant 1693 01:30:53,520 --> 01:30:54,880 Speaker 1: coach and he did a really good job as a 1694 01:30:54,880 --> 01:30:57,080 Speaker 1: head coach. I think Brian Flores was a really good 1695 01:30:57,120 --> 01:30:59,600 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator in eighteen and did a good job as 1696 01:30:59,640 --> 01:31:01,320 Speaker 1: a head coach. I don't think the same thing of 1697 01:31:01,400 --> 01:31:04,280 Speaker 1: Joe Judge and Matt Patricia. I think they were spare 1698 01:31:04,320 --> 01:31:06,639 Speaker 1: parts on their staffs and they didn't have very good 1699 01:31:06,680 --> 01:31:09,800 Speaker 1: defenses when Patricia was involved with them, and he didn't 1700 01:31:09,840 --> 01:31:11,519 Speaker 1: do a good job when he was a head coach. 1701 01:31:11,640 --> 01:31:13,640 Speaker 1: I think Bill O'Brien did a good job both as 1702 01:31:13,680 --> 01:31:16,639 Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator here and as the head coach at 1703 01:31:16,640 --> 01:31:19,400 Speaker 1: both Penn State and with the Houston Texans, So I 1704 01:31:19,400 --> 01:31:22,439 Speaker 1: would take him back. I would be more excited about 1705 01:31:22,479 --> 01:31:25,479 Speaker 1: having those guys back. Charlie Weis and Romeo Cornell wildly 1706 01:31:25,520 --> 01:31:28,240 Speaker 1: successful coordinators. But they weren't good at head coach. But 1707 01:31:28,280 --> 01:31:30,840 Speaker 1: they were good coordinators. That's what they have over the 1708 01:31:30,840 --> 01:31:33,320 Speaker 1: guys that are here now. Yeah, they were successful in 1709 01:31:33,360 --> 01:31:36,120 Speaker 1: the roles that they left. Yeah, I don't I don't 1710 01:31:36,120 --> 01:31:38,280 Speaker 1: know if I don't know if Patricia was as bad 1711 01:31:38,320 --> 01:31:40,200 Speaker 1: as you say he was. Well, I think you look 1712 01:31:40,240 --> 01:31:42,840 Speaker 1: at difference between seventeen and eighteen, it's pretty striking, you know. 1713 01:31:43,000 --> 01:31:46,240 Speaker 1: And like, was he a good coach even before he 1714 01:31:46,280 --> 01:31:48,800 Speaker 1: was a coordinator? I mean maybe, you know, I don't 1715 01:31:48,800 --> 01:31:51,000 Speaker 1: own I think even if he did. No matter how 1716 01:31:51,000 --> 01:31:52,640 Speaker 1: you feel about those guys or how they did or 1717 01:31:52,680 --> 01:31:56,400 Speaker 1: didn't do, neither of them have been an offensive like coach, 1718 01:31:56,479 --> 01:31:59,200 Speaker 1: you know, and they've done like positional But that's a 1719 01:31:59,280 --> 01:32:02,559 Speaker 1: numbable army together. It's football, that's the thing. I know. 1720 01:32:02,600 --> 01:32:04,559 Speaker 1: It's football. That's and that And I'm with you on 1721 01:32:04,560 --> 01:32:06,880 Speaker 1: on that. Point to a point, but it's also like, 1722 01:32:07,120 --> 01:32:09,400 Speaker 1: you gotta like, this is very important to the future 1723 01:32:09,400 --> 01:32:11,639 Speaker 1: of the franchise, and I get it. I I probably 1724 01:32:11,640 --> 01:32:13,599 Speaker 1: have more respect for those guys than some people do. 1725 01:32:13,640 --> 01:32:15,920 Speaker 1: But at the same time, you gotta put that get 1726 01:32:15,960 --> 01:32:19,400 Speaker 1: back to our earlier email. If the offense takes a 1727 01:32:19,520 --> 01:32:23,800 Speaker 1: visible step backwards, does that put un inspired? It's not, 1728 01:32:23,880 --> 01:32:26,800 Speaker 1: it's flat, it's they're not. Really there's never a point 1729 01:32:26,840 --> 01:32:29,320 Speaker 1: even like last year on the hot seat. They were 1730 01:32:29,360 --> 01:32:31,559 Speaker 1: rare last year, but you saw glimpses in like Cleveland 1731 01:32:31,560 --> 01:32:33,880 Speaker 1: where it's like, man, they're cooking. Now, everything's kind of working. 1732 01:32:34,360 --> 01:32:36,120 Speaker 1: It didn't happen at the end of the season, but 1733 01:32:36,400 --> 01:32:38,559 Speaker 1: you know that that's what has to happen. And regardless 1734 01:32:38,600 --> 01:32:40,160 Speaker 1: of how you do or don't feel about how they 1735 01:32:40,160 --> 01:32:42,519 Speaker 1: were when they were here previously, they've got to make 1736 01:32:42,560 --> 01:32:45,080 Speaker 1: mac Jones and this offense better. They're they're getting back 1737 01:32:45,160 --> 01:32:46,880 Speaker 1: most of the pieces that they had of a of 1738 01:32:46,920 --> 01:32:50,400 Speaker 1: an average offense. That is what it is. But that's everything. 1739 01:32:50,960 --> 01:32:53,120 Speaker 1: I think More importantly, it's you know, what the team 1740 01:32:53,560 --> 01:32:57,080 Speaker 1: is overall season that could put him on the hot 1741 01:32:57,080 --> 01:32:59,880 Speaker 1: seat if they're you know, both sides of the ball floundering, 1742 01:33:00,000 --> 01:33:02,640 Speaker 1: not just on offense. Oh yeah, if they aren't a 1743 01:33:02,640 --> 01:33:06,679 Speaker 1: playoff team, or if they're like you know, just significantly 1744 01:33:06,800 --> 01:33:10,360 Speaker 1: worse off than they were this past year, I think 1745 01:33:10,400 --> 01:33:12,160 Speaker 1: that that puts him in that and it's I think, 1746 01:33:12,160 --> 01:33:13,880 Speaker 1: and it'll mean I don't want to tie it to 1747 01:33:13,920 --> 01:33:16,040 Speaker 1: Bill's quote of you know, is that what we are 1748 01:33:16,320 --> 01:33:18,000 Speaker 1: or is that just a bad night. I guess we'll 1749 01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:20,559 Speaker 1: find out next year when we start playing. You're right, 1750 01:33:20,640 --> 01:33:22,200 Speaker 1: and that's and that's what it is. I think we 1751 01:33:22,200 --> 01:33:24,840 Speaker 1: were lulled into. I mean, I don't think I would 1752 01:33:24,840 --> 01:33:26,680 Speaker 1: say I had a false sense of security when they 1753 01:33:26,680 --> 01:33:28,799 Speaker 1: reeled off those wins. I think you put in context 1754 01:33:28,800 --> 01:33:31,280 Speaker 1: all of them, and they don't quite look like a 1755 01:33:31,320 --> 01:33:32,720 Speaker 1: lot of times as a seven or eight game win 1756 01:33:32,760 --> 01:33:36,160 Speaker 1: streak would look at the NFL um so who are they? 1757 01:33:36,200 --> 01:33:38,519 Speaker 1: And that's and now you're pulling Josh out of that equation. 1758 01:33:39,080 --> 01:33:43,720 Speaker 1: So we'll see, we'll see. It's got to be better. Yeah, 1759 01:33:43,760 --> 01:33:46,479 Speaker 1: Paul writes in from the colony, what do you believe 1760 01:33:46,520 --> 01:33:49,600 Speaker 1: the Seahawks justification was for trading Wilson? They had the 1761 01:33:49,680 --> 01:33:53,000 Speaker 1: hardest component of a good team to fill under contract. 1762 01:33:53,360 --> 01:33:55,880 Speaker 1: Why could they not make it work. How much did 1763 01:33:55,880 --> 01:33:58,400 Speaker 1: his salary have to do with it? He wanted out. 1764 01:33:59,560 --> 01:34:02,559 Speaker 1: It's pretty soon. It's the same thing really on a 1765 01:34:02,600 --> 01:34:07,720 Speaker 1: different scale. With Brady, he wanted to leave, so they 1766 01:34:07,760 --> 01:34:09,720 Speaker 1: accommodated him. I mean they tried to make it work 1767 01:34:09,760 --> 01:34:11,760 Speaker 1: for another year. He wanted on last wanted. I was 1768 01:34:11,800 --> 01:34:13,840 Speaker 1: gonna say that was last year's time. They tried to 1769 01:34:13,840 --> 01:34:16,080 Speaker 1: make it work. I think they felt like they weren't 1770 01:34:16,080 --> 01:34:17,360 Speaker 1: in a position that they were going to be able 1771 01:34:17,400 --> 01:34:21,439 Speaker 1: to win with him, so they accommodated him. I think, 1772 01:34:21,479 --> 01:34:25,440 Speaker 1: I mean without I'm not this isn't you know, Seahawks unfiltered. 1773 01:34:26,280 --> 01:34:27,920 Speaker 1: But that's the way I look at it. From afar 1774 01:34:28,400 --> 01:34:31,120 Speaker 1: is I think that they had some good they had 1775 01:34:31,120 --> 01:34:35,280 Speaker 1: some good years. They bottomed out this year. I think 1776 01:34:35,280 --> 01:34:38,519 Speaker 1: there there was some great stuff on Twitter over the weekend. Dues, 1777 01:34:38,560 --> 01:34:40,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if you caught any of this about 1778 01:34:40,120 --> 01:34:42,800 Speaker 1: just how badly Seattle has drafted the last couple of years. 1779 01:34:44,479 --> 01:34:47,920 Speaker 1: So they've really failed to bring in players to help him, 1780 01:34:48,520 --> 01:34:51,080 Speaker 1: you know, beyond the receivers. I mean, he's got he's 1781 01:34:51,120 --> 01:34:53,400 Speaker 1: got weapons to throw to, but their offensive line has 1782 01:34:53,400 --> 01:34:56,480 Speaker 1: been a mess for a while. Their defense is completely deteriorated. 1783 01:34:56,560 --> 01:35:00,479 Speaker 1: Did you say something on Tuesday about um, their they've 1784 01:35:00,520 --> 01:35:03,280 Speaker 1: got kind of arrogant with the way that they played defense? 1785 01:35:03,400 --> 01:35:06,760 Speaker 1: Is that was that was pizza. That's why you were 1786 01:35:06,800 --> 01:35:11,640 Speaker 1: hearing got you guys were talking. I think Fred heard it. 1787 01:35:11,720 --> 01:35:13,640 Speaker 1: I think Deuce was there for the press commence and 1788 01:35:13,680 --> 01:35:15,840 Speaker 1: saw it. Was surprised. But so I think there was 1789 01:35:15,880 --> 01:35:18,120 Speaker 1: a lot of different things at play with Seattle that 1790 01:35:18,280 --> 01:35:21,000 Speaker 1: sort of point painted like Russell Wilson's kind of tired 1791 01:35:21,000 --> 01:35:23,320 Speaker 1: of being a one man show. I think it's an 1792 01:35:23,360 --> 01:35:25,840 Speaker 1: interesting kind of comparison to to the Patriots, because you've 1793 01:35:25,800 --> 01:35:27,400 Speaker 1: got to I mean, you've got to coach even older 1794 01:35:27,400 --> 01:35:29,360 Speaker 1: than Belichick. What is you know, what does Pete Carroll 1795 01:35:29,400 --> 01:35:30,840 Speaker 1: want to do? Like how long does he want to 1796 01:35:30,880 --> 01:35:32,920 Speaker 1: be there? Does he want to especially when you're talking 1797 01:35:32,920 --> 01:35:35,760 Speaker 1: about your defense, your baby, like that's him, right, that's 1798 01:35:35,800 --> 01:35:38,519 Speaker 1: that's like what he originated and he's saying you can't 1799 01:35:38,560 --> 01:35:40,080 Speaker 1: really do it the same way. Is he ready to 1800 01:35:40,120 --> 01:35:43,080 Speaker 1: become innovative and you know, find the next quarterback? It 1801 01:35:43,120 --> 01:35:45,280 Speaker 1: was interesting that they've burned that up, Paul, because I 1802 01:35:45,320 --> 01:35:49,000 Speaker 1: hadn't really seen as a similar kind of reaction to 1803 01:35:49,120 --> 01:35:51,559 Speaker 1: how the Patriots draft. Until that point when I started 1804 01:35:51,560 --> 01:35:54,840 Speaker 1: reading with Seattle, didn't like, Wow, this sounds exactly like 1805 01:35:54,920 --> 01:35:57,160 Speaker 1: what the Patriots have said, you know, just they had 1806 01:35:57,200 --> 01:35:59,920 Speaker 1: They've drafted guys over where they should have. They missed 1807 01:36:00,000 --> 01:36:02,200 Speaker 1: stone picks, and it's a similar thing. And I just 1808 01:36:02,240 --> 01:36:04,200 Speaker 1: think that's one of the big truths of the NFL. 1809 01:36:04,280 --> 01:36:06,880 Speaker 1: You miss on draft picks. You can only sustain it 1810 01:36:06,960 --> 01:36:09,240 Speaker 1: so long unless you are really really good at free 1811 01:36:09,280 --> 01:36:11,960 Speaker 1: agency and managing how much you give guys and targeting 1812 01:36:12,000 --> 01:36:16,040 Speaker 1: guys and all that. Yeah. Uh, David and Bethlem Bethlehem, 1813 01:36:16,040 --> 01:36:20,920 Speaker 1: who's our resident etymologists. He says the barn burner origin 1814 01:36:21,200 --> 01:36:24,880 Speaker 1: a contest so disputed that the vitriol exceeds normal bounds. 1815 01:36:24,960 --> 01:36:28,040 Speaker 1: Example is an old New York Dutch farmer who was 1816 01:36:28,080 --> 01:36:31,599 Speaker 1: so determined to eradicate rats that he burned his barn down. 1817 01:36:34,720 --> 01:36:36,200 Speaker 1: Just build a new bar and then have to deal 1818 01:36:36,200 --> 01:36:40,400 Speaker 1: with rats anymore. That's that's like Paul Liken't I can't 1819 01:36:40,800 --> 01:36:47,120 Speaker 1: figure it out right? Um, let's see, Cody writes in 1820 01:36:47,800 --> 01:36:51,280 Speaker 1: I was going to say one thing, just not a 1821 01:36:51,360 --> 01:36:54,400 Speaker 1: major but but interesting. Nonetheless, the lines have informed Trey 1822 01:36:54,400 --> 01:36:56,519 Speaker 1: Flowers that he will be released on the first day 1823 01:36:56,520 --> 01:37:02,840 Speaker 1: of the twenty Now how old is he probably in 1824 01:37:02,880 --> 01:37:06,160 Speaker 1: his late twenties. Yeah, he's in that. I wouldn't mind. 1825 01:37:06,200 --> 01:37:07,720 Speaker 1: I wouldn't mind either. I put him in the thing 1826 01:37:07,720 --> 01:37:10,519 Speaker 1: I wrote yesterday of just former Patriots. That good. I 1827 01:37:10,560 --> 01:37:13,439 Speaker 1: mean they need an edge guy. He's younger, a little bit, 1828 01:37:13,479 --> 01:37:17,280 Speaker 1: a little bit of a Definitely, you could get him 1829 01:37:17,280 --> 01:37:20,120 Speaker 1: to say yes to anything, and sometimes in the same 1830 01:37:20,160 --> 01:37:22,679 Speaker 1: interview somebody would make a different point on the same 1831 01:37:22,680 --> 01:37:24,880 Speaker 1: topic and he would agree with that too. Twenty nine 1832 01:37:24,880 --> 01:37:27,759 Speaker 1: in August twenty Yeah, I wouldn't. I mean, he was funny. 1833 01:37:28,160 --> 01:37:30,880 Speaker 1: He's coming. I mean, he might be looking to recoup 1834 01:37:30,920 --> 01:37:33,080 Speaker 1: the money he's gonna lose by getting released. And if 1835 01:37:33,120 --> 01:37:34,479 Speaker 1: that's the case, I don't know how much I want 1836 01:37:34,479 --> 01:37:36,760 Speaker 1: to pay a twenty nine year old, but obviously a 1837 01:37:36,760 --> 01:37:39,400 Speaker 1: guy who has familiarity with the way things are done here. Yeah, 1838 01:37:39,400 --> 01:37:44,439 Speaker 1: absolutely be interesting. Dyed that you Fred. I like to 1839 01:37:44,479 --> 01:37:48,160 Speaker 1: get your opinions before they do or don't sign them. Yeah. 1840 01:37:47,400 --> 01:37:50,439 Speaker 1: I I like the player, but I need to see 1841 01:37:50,439 --> 01:37:54,720 Speaker 1: the money, you know, always a condition, Yeah, always a 1842 01:37:54,760 --> 01:37:57,240 Speaker 1: Condiolutely is there a player that you wouldn't care about 1843 01:37:57,240 --> 01:38:02,640 Speaker 1: the money? Sure who Tom uh My homes any of 1844 01:38:02,640 --> 01:38:05,360 Speaker 1: those elite quarterbacks. Is there any non quarterback that you 1845 01:38:05,400 --> 01:38:09,000 Speaker 1: wouldn't care about the money? Uh? Aaron Donald, it's a 1846 01:38:09,040 --> 01:38:14,280 Speaker 1: good one. Yeah, I mean there are some what's your 1847 01:38:14,439 --> 01:38:18,400 Speaker 1: linebacker in Dallas that I'm not thinking, Cebo Samuel?

I 1850 01:38:24,479 --> 01:38:28,519 Speaker 1: don't care. Whatever he wants, whatever he wants whatever, well 1851 01:38:28,600 --> 01:38:32,040 Speaker 1: within his position range. He's the highest paid wide receiver 1852 01:38:32,680 --> 01:38:35,200 Speaker 1: in football. You would make him the highest paid receiver. Yeah, 1853 01:38:35,280 --> 01:38:39,720 Speaker 1: oh oh oh, I yeah, that's the that's the kind 1854 01:38:39,720 --> 01:38:42,040 Speaker 1: of analysis I'm looking for.

Snoopy or snooky 1922 01:42:32,320 --> 01:42:34,519 Speaker 1: or whatever the hell your name is He's like fur 1923 01:42:35,160 --> 01:42:37,559 Speaker 1: Eric's like raking leaves and they're blowing their leaves over 1924 01:42:37,720 --> 01:42:45,000 Speaker 1: on him, you know, mister Furley. Uh, Cody's in Nova Scotia. 1925 01:42:45,280 --> 01:42:47,840 Speaker 1: I was hoping to get an early take on Drake London. 1926 01:42:47,960 --> 01:42:50,560 Speaker 1: I feel he's one of the most overrated, hate the 1927 01:42:50,640 --> 01:42:54,320 Speaker 1: Drake overrated receivers in this class. Every play of his 1928 01:42:54,479 --> 01:42:57,320 Speaker 1: that I see reminds me of to kill Harry, and 1929 01:42:57,640 --> 01:43:00,479 Speaker 1: I'd like to ask, I'm conflicted. I'd like to ask 1930 01:43:01,080 --> 01:43:03,800 Speaker 1: why Eric is so cynical. Is it because of all 1931 01:43:03,840 --> 01:43:06,120 Speaker 1: the watching McCaul a teasing, the gotta get Me a 1932 01:43:06,160 --> 01:43:09,439 Speaker 1: Woman's song? Or are you just naturally like that? Between 1933 01:43:09,640 --> 01:43:12,439 Speaker 1: Eric and the Perpetual Wet Blanket that is Todd formerly 1934 01:43:12,520 --> 01:43:15,240 Speaker 1: of Canada, I feel like I need to take away 1935 01:43:15,320 --> 01:43:19,840 Speaker 1: my shoelaces at times. Wow, you and I avoided that. Yeah, 1936 01:43:19,880 --> 01:43:23,280 Speaker 1: it's that, But he says he petual Wet Blanket. I 1937 01:43:23,280 --> 01:43:24,720 Speaker 1: thought for sure it was gonna be me. He says 1938 01:43:24,760 --> 01:43:28,120 Speaker 1: he definitely likes the more assertive Eric. Since Andy's been gone, 1939 01:43:28,800 --> 01:43:30,920 Speaker 1: big change people have been talking about it for years, 1940 01:43:32,000 --> 01:43:37,080 Speaker 1: big change and growth, personal growth and how you described 1941 01:43:37,120 --> 01:43:39,320 Speaker 1: it earlier. For I used to go like hours without 1942 01:43:39,360 --> 01:43:41,760 Speaker 1: speaking well because it's hard. Like when they would yell 1943 01:43:41,800 --> 01:43:43,519 Speaker 1: at him, well, he would yell, but he was one 1944 01:43:43,560 --> 01:43:45,160 Speaker 1: of those people where I couldn't get a word. You 1945 01:43:45,200 --> 01:43:46,800 Speaker 1: can't get a word, and when he's arguing with you, 1946 01:43:47,400 --> 01:43:49,960 Speaker 1: you know how it is, it's the only way is 1947 01:43:49,960 --> 01:43:52,360 Speaker 1: to yell at the same time and then not into that. 1948 01:43:52,520 --> 01:43:54,280 Speaker 1: I'm more like you in that kind of thing. I 1949 01:43:54,360 --> 01:43:56,559 Speaker 1: don't like arguing, Paul. We talked on the last show. 1950 01:43:56,640 --> 01:44:00,360 Speaker 1: Paul loves arguing for arguing sake. I hate it if 1951 01:44:00,400 --> 01:44:02,479 Speaker 1: I have to, but I don't like it. His words 1952 01:44:02,520 --> 01:44:05,360 Speaker 1: are like ten thousand little monkey fists pounding you over 1953 01:44:05,439 --> 01:44:07,600 Speaker 1: the head, bah bah bah. You know he's like, he 1954 01:44:08,040 --> 01:44:10,080 Speaker 1: does have an unfair way of arguing. Yeah, I want 1955 01:44:10,120 --> 01:44:14,240 Speaker 1: to bang Eric is. He just won't let you even talk. 1956 01:44:15,080 --> 01:44:17,280 Speaker 1: It's right now because I've you know, I've hung out 1957 01:44:17,280 --> 01:44:19,280 Speaker 1: with Andy enough. I've gone on AI with him a 1958 01:44:19,320 --> 01:44:21,240 Speaker 1: few times, and I'm like, and I like him, and 1959 01:44:21,600 --> 01:44:24,400 Speaker 1: but but I feel like he doesn't quite know me 1960 01:44:24,560 --> 01:44:26,920 Speaker 1: yet to start attacking me like he attacks everybody else. 1961 01:44:26,960 --> 01:44:29,559 Speaker 1: And I'm like, and I'm like, it's okay, I don't mind. 1962 01:44:29,600 --> 01:44:31,840 Speaker 1: Like you still got you still got that kick got 1963 01:44:31,880 --> 01:44:36,080 Speaker 1: so great A little bit he plays the time of 1964 01:44:36,160 --> 01:44:39,400 Speaker 1: picture he does. Yeah, he definitely tries to run the 1965 01:44:39,439 --> 01:44:42,640 Speaker 1: clock about it, but he's so face not like that 1966 01:44:43,280 --> 01:44:45,320 Speaker 1: when like, like like when he comes up to visit 1967 01:44:45,360 --> 01:44:48,000 Speaker 1: in the press box. Yeah, it's all like chummy, Hi, 1968 01:44:48,120 --> 01:44:49,920 Speaker 1: how you doing, like catching up on the family kind 1969 01:44:49,920 --> 01:44:52,200 Speaker 1: of thing. As soon as there's a microphone or an audience, 1970 01:44:52,479 --> 01:44:55,120 Speaker 1: he turns into that andy where he has to be like, 1971 01:44:55,960 --> 01:44:58,240 Speaker 1: you know, overpowering bully. I think he's like that all 1972 01:44:58,280 --> 01:45:01,400 Speaker 1: the time. Yeah, not all the time, I know. I 1973 01:45:01,600 --> 01:45:03,360 Speaker 1: would just say to the first point in Drake Len 1974 01:45:03,439 --> 01:45:05,320 Speaker 1: and I feel a kind of similar, Um, you know 1975 01:45:05,400 --> 01:45:08,479 Speaker 1: a lot of contested catches. Um. I think that you know, 1976 01:45:08,680 --> 01:45:10,880 Speaker 1: he's like a captain, He's one of those kind of guys. 1977 01:45:10,880 --> 01:45:12,639 Speaker 1: I also felt like when I saw him an indie, 1978 01:45:13,080 --> 01:45:16,360 Speaker 1: he looks like he's got development to go. So I think, 1979 01:45:16,720 --> 01:45:18,560 Speaker 1: although you might not, you're you're probably not seeing the 1980 01:45:18,640 --> 01:45:21,519 Speaker 1: finished package with him. I think that's probably why his 1981 01:45:21,600 --> 01:45:23,519 Speaker 1: stock has kind of gone up, even if he's not, 1982 01:45:24,600 --> 01:45:26,840 Speaker 1: you know, one of those through the roof testers kind 1983 01:45:26,840 --> 01:45:29,280 Speaker 1: of guys. I am sort of conflicted on him, and 1984 01:45:29,360 --> 01:45:31,479 Speaker 1: I think everything might just said I would a thousand 1985 01:45:31,560 --> 01:45:33,200 Speaker 1: percent agree with I think you see a ton of 1986 01:45:33,600 --> 01:45:36,519 Speaker 1: contested catches. That's a red flag for me. Nikil Harry, 1987 01:45:37,439 --> 01:45:39,600 Speaker 1: Aaron Dobson. I mean, there's a lot of guys that 1988 01:45:40,200 --> 01:45:42,360 Speaker 1: if you're not getting open consistently in college, I don't 1989 01:45:42,360 --> 01:45:43,840 Speaker 1: know why you think you make the leap and you're 1990 01:45:43,920 --> 01:45:47,080 Speaker 1: suddenly wide open all the time. He is a dynamic 1991 01:45:47,160 --> 01:45:49,080 Speaker 1: athlete though, like you ever see some of those like 1992 01:45:49,120 --> 01:45:52,840 Speaker 1: a basketball guy. Yeah, he means I'm conflicted on him. 1993 01:45:52,880 --> 01:45:57,640 Speaker 1: I could definitely see he was wildly productive, you know what, 1994 01:45:57,800 --> 01:46:00,599 Speaker 1: USC and their team completely fell apart and he got hurt. 1995 01:46:01,400 --> 01:46:04,800 Speaker 1: So I would also worry about, you know, the explosiveness 1996 01:46:04,840 --> 01:46:06,639 Speaker 1: that he has when he comes back. It's a twenty 1997 01:46:06,680 --> 01:46:09,840 Speaker 1: a cl for him too, right, I don't know. I 1998 01:46:09,880 --> 01:46:11,920 Speaker 1: think it's a twenty ACL for him as well. So 1999 01:46:12,200 --> 01:46:15,400 Speaker 1: there's some concerns there for a guy who's not always open. 2000 01:46:16,080 --> 01:46:18,360 Speaker 1: Maybe if he loses a fraction of a second off 2001 01:46:18,400 --> 01:46:21,200 Speaker 1: his forty times, does that make him, you know, yeah, 2002 01:46:21,560 --> 01:46:24,280 Speaker 1: easily guardable. It was funny though. It came up on 2003 01:46:24,360 --> 01:46:27,000 Speaker 1: Twitter last night at some point, but they they somebody 2004 01:46:27,160 --> 01:46:31,720 Speaker 1: posted the immediate aftermath when they drafted Harry and they 2005 01:46:31,760 --> 01:46:33,720 Speaker 1: were playing like the mel kiper you know when they 2006 01:46:33,800 --> 01:46:35,439 Speaker 1: roll the highlights and they talk about the guy. And 2007 01:46:35,479 --> 01:46:36,640 Speaker 1: he was the last pick of the night, so they 2008 01:46:36,640 --> 01:46:38,800 Speaker 1: had a little extra time. And it was, you know, 2009 01:46:38,960 --> 01:46:40,560 Speaker 1: funny watching it because first of all, I think it 2010 01:46:40,640 --> 01:46:44,320 Speaker 1: was a good reminder of that we're hyping up all 2011 01:46:44,400 --> 01:46:46,920 Speaker 1: these guys and all you know, anybody who's a first rumpet, 2012 01:46:46,960 --> 01:46:49,360 Speaker 1: Oh he's gonna be. He's gonna be. It doesn't always 2013 01:46:49,400 --> 01:46:54,840 Speaker 1: work out, but fractured right ankle, but cantet the same thing. 2014 01:46:54,880 --> 01:46:57,200 Speaker 1: It's the same Harry. You see now it's it's everything's 2015 01:46:57,280 --> 01:46:59,040 Speaker 1: kind of tight. He's diving out and you know what 2016 01:46:59,200 --> 01:47:01,400 Speaker 1: makes his catch lay out? How many plays are there 2017 01:47:01,439 --> 01:47:04,920 Speaker 1: where he just makes it quick. Mike thinks about Drake Lendon. 2018 01:47:05,000 --> 01:47:07,920 Speaker 1: Everything Mike says about him, I think that's the scouting report, 2019 01:47:08,000 --> 01:47:09,880 Speaker 1: that's what you've seen. But he's boyish, you know, like 2020 01:47:10,000 --> 01:47:12,280 Speaker 1: you just get that sense like he's not even close 2021 01:47:12,360 --> 01:47:14,800 Speaker 1: to where he'll be. So I just is he the 2022 01:47:14,880 --> 01:47:17,479 Speaker 1: kind of player that the Patriots could use. It's probably 2023 01:47:17,560 --> 01:47:19,760 Speaker 1: not quite that. I think it's more for me again. 2024 01:47:19,840 --> 01:47:22,680 Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson A love those quick guys that can do 2025 01:47:22,760 --> 01:47:24,479 Speaker 1: a bunch of things. You can move them around. It's 2026 01:47:24,520 --> 01:47:26,240 Speaker 1: not all right, just run on the field. We're gonna 2027 01:47:26,280 --> 01:47:27,679 Speaker 1: throw it up he and jump over the guy and catches. 2028 01:47:27,720 --> 01:47:29,240 Speaker 1: It just doesn't happen in the NFL like it does 2029 01:47:29,320 --> 01:47:31,400 Speaker 1: in college. Yeah. I just like the idea that Mike 2030 01:47:31,560 --> 01:47:34,560 Speaker 1: is talking about with like a dynamic player, not just 2031 01:47:34,960 --> 01:47:37,320 Speaker 1: a little slot guy that can average nine point eight 2032 01:47:37,400 --> 01:47:40,360 Speaker 1: yards per catch. You know there's value to that, don't 2033 01:47:40,400 --> 01:47:42,680 Speaker 1: get me wrong, But I want you, guys. I want 2034 01:47:42,680 --> 01:47:45,920 Speaker 1: a playmaker, someone who could be something different than what 2035 01:47:46,000 --> 01:47:48,920 Speaker 1: they already have. Word shake, guys, get open. You know. 2036 01:47:49,200 --> 01:47:51,000 Speaker 1: It's like Debo. I mean, they just not to say 2037 01:47:51,080 --> 01:47:52,800 Speaker 1: that he needs to do everything the Debo does, but 2038 01:47:52,880 --> 01:47:54,760 Speaker 1: it's just a skill set that can do a bunch 2039 01:47:54,800 --> 01:47:57,840 Speaker 1: of different things. And as he evolves, you know. And 2040 01:48:00,000 --> 01:48:01,360 Speaker 1: Perry post actually a couple of things I wanted to 2041 01:48:01,360 --> 01:48:05,000 Speaker 1: bring about Phil Perry um. But with Phil Perry, no, no, 2042 01:48:05,080 --> 01:48:08,599 Speaker 1: I just some interesting points he brought up. That's that's 2043 01:48:08,600 --> 01:48:10,800 Speaker 1: what it felt bad for for what Vrabel did to 2044 01:48:10,920 --> 01:48:12,639 Speaker 1: him and India. It was it was it was pretty funny. 2045 01:48:12,640 --> 01:48:15,280 Speaker 1: He got He walked right into uh into getting rabeled, 2046 01:48:15,320 --> 01:48:19,240 Speaker 1: but oh, I just totally figure out point. That's what 2047 01:48:19,400 --> 01:48:21,400 Speaker 1: I do. But but I remember my first one was 2048 01:48:21,439 --> 01:48:23,240 Speaker 1: that he brought up in one of his things talking 2049 01:48:23,280 --> 01:48:25,280 Speaker 1: about jac Jackson, which is a point that that I've 2050 01:48:25,320 --> 01:48:28,280 Speaker 1: said a couple of times is people around the league 2051 01:48:28,280 --> 01:48:29,799 Speaker 1: think it's going to be so hard for the Patriots 2052 01:48:29,840 --> 01:48:32,640 Speaker 1: to find man corners now, and could that signal a 2053 01:48:32,720 --> 01:48:34,920 Speaker 1: shift and maybe they get away from that, maybe they 2054 01:48:35,360 --> 01:48:37,719 Speaker 1: focus more on the front seven and they get zone 2055 01:48:37,760 --> 01:48:40,000 Speaker 1: guys who were tough, and what they did last year 2056 01:48:40,080 --> 01:48:43,160 Speaker 1: anyway kinda. I mean, I guess it was inadvertent. I mean, 2057 01:48:43,160 --> 01:48:45,240 Speaker 1: I think if you had JC and Jonathan Jones, you've 2058 01:48:45,240 --> 01:48:47,200 Speaker 1: got a couple of guys. An they switched the zone 2059 01:48:47,240 --> 01:48:50,280 Speaker 1: because they had to, but they didn't necessarily have zone guys. 2060 01:48:50,400 --> 01:48:52,519 Speaker 1: But how do they feel about that? Were they forced 2061 01:48:52,560 --> 01:48:54,720 Speaker 1: into it? Did they? Jalen Mills is the reason they 2062 01:48:54,760 --> 01:48:57,479 Speaker 1: switched to zone once once you had no chance of 2063 01:48:57,520 --> 01:49:00,680 Speaker 1: Gilmore coming back, and and then Jonathan Jones goes out, 2064 01:49:00,760 --> 01:49:02,800 Speaker 1: So Jalen Mills plays a major role, and I think 2065 01:49:02,840 --> 01:49:05,720 Speaker 1: that's why they went to his own. Again, I'm not 2066 01:49:05,840 --> 01:49:08,160 Speaker 1: a coach that could be one hundred percent wrong. But 2067 01:49:08,479 --> 01:49:12,920 Speaker 1: I saw a line of demarcation there Dallas game. Yeah yeah, Pat, 2068 01:49:13,040 --> 01:49:14,640 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden things changed. And I think 2069 01:49:14,680 --> 01:49:16,360 Speaker 1: it's because they didn't think they had the personnel to 2070 01:49:16,360 --> 01:49:18,519 Speaker 1: play man. Well, that's that's for sure. I remember my 2071 01:49:18,560 --> 01:49:21,280 Speaker 1: other thing about Phil um his thing today was that, 2072 01:49:21,840 --> 01:49:23,919 Speaker 1: in speaking of people in any they thought the Patriots 2073 01:49:23,960 --> 01:49:27,160 Speaker 1: offense was easy to defend because there wasn't those kind 2074 01:49:27,200 --> 01:49:29,120 Speaker 1: of guys that could be moved around, like, oh crap, 2075 01:49:29,200 --> 01:49:31,200 Speaker 1: what are we gonna do if they got him outside? 2076 01:49:31,200 --> 01:49:32,439 Speaker 1: How are we going to defend that? You know that 2077 01:49:32,560 --> 01:49:34,320 Speaker 1: there's not really any that you knew what was gonna be. 2078 01:49:34,400 --> 01:49:37,479 Speaker 1: It's gonna be you know, aglare on the outside and 2079 01:49:37,760 --> 01:49:40,679 Speaker 1: born and and Myers kind of work in the middle. Henry, 2080 01:49:41,240 --> 01:49:44,559 Speaker 1: speaking of Phil Perry, Pat and Agulon, writes in listen 2081 01:49:44,680 --> 01:49:47,080 Speaker 1: to his podcast recently, I think Phil Perry and he 2082 01:49:47,280 --> 01:49:50,280 Speaker 1: was talking about who the team should nominate as the 2083 01:49:50,400 --> 01:49:54,439 Speaker 1: emotional leader once Slater retires this offseason or sometime in 2084 01:49:54,479 --> 01:49:58,200 Speaker 1: the near future. His nominee was Kendrick Bourne. I love 2085 01:49:58,320 --> 01:50:00,840 Speaker 1: this idea of KB has quickly become one of my 2086 01:50:00,960 --> 01:50:04,960 Speaker 1: favorite Patriots. As the team is currently constructed he exudes 2087 01:50:05,040 --> 01:50:08,240 Speaker 1: great vibes and positive energy. He'd be great in that 2088 01:50:08,479 --> 01:50:11,080 Speaker 1: role in my opinion, and put me in the camp 2089 01:50:11,160 --> 01:50:15,320 Speaker 1: to trade Harry for Andy Isabella. Harry's coming in that 2090 01:50:15,400 --> 01:50:18,840 Speaker 1: camp too. By Harry's probably gone on or around camp 2091 01:50:18,920 --> 01:50:22,519 Speaker 1: time more than likely sooner than that. Let Isabella come 2092 01:50:22,560 --> 01:50:24,800 Speaker 1: in and compete for a roster spot in camp. And 2093 01:50:24,920 --> 01:50:27,479 Speaker 1: who knows, maybe you catch lightning in a bottle and 2094 01:50:27,560 --> 01:50:30,080 Speaker 1: the kid can fit in this offense. Plus I heard 2095 01:50:30,120 --> 01:50:34,599 Speaker 1: on some show that he's a good returner. I would 2096 01:50:34,600 --> 01:50:37,080 Speaker 1: absolutely be in favor of that, you know, one of 2097 01:50:37,120 --> 01:50:40,679 Speaker 1: those typical my trash for your trash kind of deals. 2098 01:50:40,840 --> 01:50:43,080 Speaker 1: I would think it makes all the all the sense 2099 01:50:43,160 --> 01:50:46,720 Speaker 1: in the world. He can run, Isabella can run. Yeah, 2100 01:50:46,880 --> 01:50:51,439 Speaker 1: it's fast. You mentioned ACL and did I hear that, 2101 01:50:51,640 --> 01:50:57,080 Speaker 1: Like it's now determined that the artificial turf has caused 2102 01:50:57,160 --> 01:50:59,840 Speaker 1: more acls than grass did, and like there's a big 2103 01:51:00,080 --> 01:51:03,200 Speaker 1: movement to get back to grass. Yeah, the data shows 2104 01:51:03,200 --> 01:51:05,679 Speaker 1: that more injuries happen on yeah, the fake stuff. Yeah, 2105 01:51:05,760 --> 01:51:08,640 Speaker 1: And there was some talk during the regular season. I 2106 01:51:08,720 --> 01:51:12,479 Speaker 1: think that the NFL is encouraging teams to go back 2107 01:51:12,520 --> 01:51:15,400 Speaker 1: to grass as much as possible, Right, So, well, would 2108 01:51:15,439 --> 01:51:18,080 Speaker 1: you be if your favor like if the NFL did 2109 01:51:18,120 --> 01:51:20,519 Speaker 1: what FIFA does and say you must play on grass, 2110 01:51:20,960 --> 01:51:23,320 Speaker 1: would you be okay if that that was the case, 2111 01:51:23,400 --> 01:51:25,040 Speaker 1: I would be okay. I don't Yeah, that's it's it's 2112 01:51:25,080 --> 01:51:28,800 Speaker 1: the money off of I don't play on the field field. 2113 01:51:29,320 --> 01:51:31,519 Speaker 1: How do you tell Robert Kraft all right, well, now 2114 01:51:31,600 --> 01:51:34,759 Speaker 1: you can't do those summer concerts, you can't have football. 2115 01:51:34,840 --> 01:51:37,560 Speaker 1: But what what if they would they have to in 2116 01:51:37,880 --> 01:51:39,800 Speaker 1: a case like like here where we don't have the 2117 01:51:39,960 --> 01:51:42,600 Speaker 1: rollout you know field, would they have to do what 2118 01:51:42,720 --> 01:51:44,920 Speaker 1: FIFA does when they play a match here, which is 2119 01:51:45,000 --> 01:51:47,080 Speaker 1: bringing bring your own grass, bring your own grass, put 2120 01:51:47,160 --> 01:51:48,880 Speaker 1: the new sod like every week. Would you have to 2121 01:51:48,960 --> 01:51:52,120 Speaker 1: do that? That would be a fortune. Yeah, But if 2122 01:51:52,160 --> 01:51:53,760 Speaker 1: the NFL's making you do it, because like if you 2123 01:51:53,840 --> 01:51:55,880 Speaker 1: have a concert venue, you've got like maybe you've got 2124 01:51:55,920 --> 01:51:58,960 Speaker 1: like your your concrete like base. Yeah, and then okay, 2125 01:51:59,040 --> 01:52:02,000 Speaker 1: we know like usually after August there's really not a 2126 01:52:02,080 --> 01:52:04,439 Speaker 1: lot of concerts that go on, you know, that's not 2127 01:52:04,520 --> 01:52:07,200 Speaker 1: really concert season generally ends about that time. So at 2128 01:52:07,240 --> 01:52:10,920 Speaker 1: that point you put the grass in and you're pretty 2129 01:52:10,960 --> 01:52:13,080 Speaker 1: safe at that point, but you have to keep maintaining 2130 01:52:13,120 --> 01:52:14,519 Speaker 1: it now for the rest of this or they could 2131 01:52:14,520 --> 01:52:17,160 Speaker 1: figure out how to make artificial turf that's safer, Yeah, 2132 01:52:17,240 --> 01:52:21,360 Speaker 1: because they've had different generations they have. Yeah, but I 2133 01:52:21,479 --> 01:52:24,000 Speaker 1: think kind of as close to the grass as you 2134 01:52:24,080 --> 01:52:26,439 Speaker 1: can get, and I think it's still dangerous. So weird. 2135 01:52:26,560 --> 01:52:28,360 Speaker 1: I don't know, it's just havn't walked like you know, 2136 01:52:28,479 --> 01:52:30,519 Speaker 1: occasionally you walk on that. I don't know how how 2137 01:52:30,600 --> 01:52:32,040 Speaker 1: it just feels so. I mean, I'm sure you get 2138 01:52:32,120 --> 01:52:33,479 Speaker 1: used to it to an extent, but every time I 2139 01:52:33,560 --> 01:52:35,720 Speaker 1: walk on it, I'm like, I can't imagine. I know, 2140 01:52:35,880 --> 01:52:38,800 Speaker 1: it's running and cutting. It's a little slippery too, Even 2141 01:52:38,840 --> 01:52:41,640 Speaker 1: when it's not wet, it feels slippery. I don't get it. 2142 01:52:42,640 --> 01:52:45,720 Speaker 1: I like, I've always liked the grass better. I mean, oh, 2143 01:52:45,760 --> 01:52:47,960 Speaker 1: I'm old school traditional that way, but I just I 2144 01:52:48,120 --> 01:52:51,160 Speaker 1: like fields that are grass, you know. I like the 2145 01:52:51,479 --> 01:52:53,479 Speaker 1: look of it, the smell of it. Yeah. See, I 2146 01:52:53,680 --> 01:52:59,759 Speaker 1: like grass fields, but when they're torn up and dirty, 2147 01:53:00,040 --> 01:53:02,080 Speaker 1: right when they know, when they're in places that class 2148 01:53:02,520 --> 01:53:04,679 Speaker 1: you know, you can have it like car parks. I'll 2149 01:53:04,680 --> 01:53:07,280 Speaker 1: give you an example, Hinesfield. I don't want to play 2150 01:53:07,320 --> 01:53:09,880 Speaker 1: there after Like the middle of October. It's done right, 2151 01:53:10,800 --> 01:53:13,200 Speaker 1: like like to me, that's a that's a venue that 2152 01:53:13,560 --> 01:53:16,080 Speaker 1: it doesn't hold up well. All right, So I don't 2153 01:53:16,120 --> 01:53:18,120 Speaker 1: want to play on grass if it's not good, right, 2154 01:53:19,320 --> 01:53:21,920 Speaker 1: But you know, I understand it's safer and if they 2155 01:53:21,960 --> 01:53:23,560 Speaker 1: went to that for the safety of the players, I 2156 01:53:23,600 --> 01:53:27,280 Speaker 1: think that would be a good move. Joe from Western Australia. 2157 01:53:27,840 --> 01:53:30,599 Speaker 1: Thanks for your excellent work. I'm a traditional podcast listener 2158 01:53:31,040 --> 01:53:33,360 Speaker 1: and I never missed your show, enjoying the offseason as 2159 01:53:33,439 --> 01:53:35,400 Speaker 1: much as ever. Thanks for carrying me through the year. 2160 01:53:35,520 --> 01:53:38,160 Speaker 1: You are champs. The other day you had a flashback 2161 01:53:38,200 --> 01:53:41,080 Speaker 1: to Eric talking about going into the cashier to pay 2162 01:53:41,160 --> 01:53:44,600 Speaker 1: for gas, but they call it petrol in Australia. He 2163 01:53:44,800 --> 01:53:47,479 Speaker 1: lives in the wrong country over here. It's the opposite 2164 01:53:47,520 --> 01:53:50,439 Speaker 1: to what you seem to describe Fred. The vast majority 2165 01:53:50,520 --> 01:53:53,280 Speaker 1: do not pay at the pump. Nearly everyone goes in 2166 01:53:53,400 --> 01:53:56,320 Speaker 1: and pays inside. I'm not sure why. That's just what 2167 01:53:56,479 --> 01:53:59,800 Speaker 1: we do. Maybe we like the human contact. Maybe it's 2168 01:53:59,840 --> 01:54:01,800 Speaker 1: the good weather and so we don't mind the oh 2169 01:54:02,000 --> 01:54:04,519 Speaker 1: so long walk that it takes to go in. I'm 2170 01:54:04,560 --> 01:54:06,639 Speaker 1: not sure, but that's what we do. Oh, I think, 2171 01:54:06,680 --> 01:54:09,360 Speaker 1: I think I have a reason. Why is there south 2172 01:54:09,360 --> 01:54:12,320 Speaker 1: of the equator everything's reversed. Well, you took it out. 2173 01:54:12,920 --> 01:54:16,080 Speaker 1: You stepped on my joke. Sorry. When it's busy, we 2174 01:54:16,160 --> 01:54:20,439 Speaker 1: will literally cue that. We will literally literally queue in 2175 01:54:20,479 --> 01:54:23,000 Speaker 1: the shop waiting to pay, even though the facility is 2176 01:54:23,080 --> 01:54:25,320 Speaker 1: right there to pay it the pump. So they have 2177 01:54:25,479 --> 01:54:27,960 Speaker 1: the choice. Yeah, but they choose to go in. That's 2178 01:54:28,920 --> 01:54:31,040 Speaker 1: it's just weird to go chat with the guy inside. 2179 01:54:31,160 --> 01:54:34,360 Speaker 1: How's it going? Yeah, scratchers, But he said, in honor 2180 01:54:34,400 --> 01:54:35,880 Speaker 1: of you, Fred, I tried to pay it the pump 2181 01:54:35,920 --> 01:54:38,360 Speaker 1: the other day. It felt strange and very wrong. It's 2182 01:54:38,400 --> 01:54:41,880 Speaker 1: just wrong, fred Is it right? They say about which McCall, 2183 01:54:41,920 --> 01:54:44,720 Speaker 1: it's too and they're wrong. No, did I tell you 2184 01:54:44,800 --> 01:54:52,000 Speaker 1: I tried there? No? Is it any better than saw dust? 2185 01:54:52,040 --> 01:54:54,720 Speaker 1: It's more peanut butter. It's pretty good. It's pretty good. Yeah. 2186 01:54:54,760 --> 01:54:57,320 Speaker 1: I gotta give it credit that they did a good 2187 01:54:57,400 --> 01:54:59,280 Speaker 1: job of it. I mean, I still have a you know, 2188 01:54:59,360 --> 01:55:02,720 Speaker 1: soft spot for the original, but I would not toss 2189 01:55:02,760 --> 01:55:04,200 Speaker 1: a hoosi what's it out of bed? I just don't 2190 01:55:04,200 --> 01:55:05,360 Speaker 1: know why that had to come up with an alternate 2191 01:55:05,480 --> 01:55:07,960 Speaker 1: version of a name of a name you can't remember, right, 2192 01:55:08,040 --> 01:55:09,760 Speaker 1: and plus your name was the better one. I thought, 2193 01:55:10,240 --> 01:55:15,480 Speaker 1: what what what the is this? They're supposed to be 2194 01:55:15,520 --> 01:55:17,600 Speaker 1: swearing on you? You know you casually just toss about 2195 01:55:17,640 --> 01:55:23,720 Speaker 1: your your blue language. Ah, let's see a lot of 2196 01:55:23,760 --> 01:55:26,400 Speaker 1: a lot of emails about like what free agent you'd 2197 01:55:26,480 --> 01:55:28,240 Speaker 1: want to bring in? And you know, I don't know 2198 01:55:28,240 --> 01:55:31,840 Speaker 1: if you dot com any you know, yes, you know, 2199 01:55:32,360 --> 01:55:34,200 Speaker 1: I feel like Mike and we have worked very hard 2200 01:55:34,240 --> 01:55:38,320 Speaker 1: on our free agent forecast. Go and read me your 2201 01:55:38,400 --> 01:55:40,680 Speaker 1: top three agents that you would want the Patriots to 2202 01:55:40,760 --> 01:55:47,000 Speaker 1: bring in any position. Neil corn Rich. Ye, he's an 2203 01:55:47,040 --> 01:55:50,720 Speaker 1: Andrew Gimember. My top three agents I should want to 2204 01:55:50,800 --> 01:55:53,440 Speaker 1: be I thought, I said free agents. No, I'm sure 2205 01:55:53,480 --> 01:55:56,480 Speaker 1: you did. I mean, I just not to cop out, 2206 01:55:56,520 --> 01:55:58,760 Speaker 1: but I'd start with the interior, the guy, the internal guys. 2207 01:55:58,760 --> 01:56:00,600 Speaker 1: I would start with those few guys. I don't know. 2208 01:56:00,640 --> 01:56:02,040 Speaker 1: I feel like I have no I feel like I 2209 01:56:02,160 --> 01:56:04,840 Speaker 1: have no bead on this year of what they're gonna do. 2210 01:56:05,040 --> 01:56:07,480 Speaker 1: I really not that I ever think I do. Maybe 2211 01:56:07,520 --> 01:56:09,680 Speaker 1: I maybe I have fault. Problem is they don't have 2212 01:56:09,800 --> 01:56:11,480 Speaker 1: the money to do the things i'd want them to do. 2213 01:56:11,560 --> 01:56:12,920 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what I really don't want to My 2214 01:56:13,000 --> 01:56:14,800 Speaker 1: top three agents they wouldn't be able to afford. Wait 2215 01:56:14,800 --> 01:56:16,880 Speaker 1: a minute, now, you didn't listen to Paul's rant at 2216 01:56:16,920 --> 01:56:20,040 Speaker 1: the top of the show. You're saying that they don't 2217 01:56:20,040 --> 01:56:23,360 Speaker 1: have the money, and Paul says that's not yeah, no, 2218 01:56:23,520 --> 01:56:25,680 Speaker 1: I no, no, no, he didn't say that. I said 2219 01:56:25,720 --> 01:56:29,440 Speaker 1: the opposite. What are you saying? People are talking about 2220 01:56:29,520 --> 01:56:34,120 Speaker 1: cap space, right, cap spaces can be manipulated, as Bill says, right, 2221 01:56:34,400 --> 01:56:35,840 Speaker 1: So how do you know they don't have the money? 2222 01:56:35,920 --> 01:56:38,320 Speaker 1: The money is because they just spent two hundred million 2223 01:56:39,160 --> 01:56:42,120 Speaker 1: like everybody's got a price. Fred, I'm sorry, Like, I 2224 01:56:42,200 --> 01:56:44,440 Speaker 1: don't care who you are. You can't just go free 2225 01:56:44,480 --> 01:56:48,440 Speaker 1: agent hog wild every year like that makes sense to 2226 01:56:48,520 --> 01:56:51,440 Speaker 1: me that the pages probably be a little bit more 2227 01:56:51,640 --> 01:56:55,320 Speaker 1: conservative this year, tossing around the signing bonuses after what 2228 01:56:55,400 --> 01:56:58,240 Speaker 1: they did last year. There's only so I mean, can 2229 01:56:58,520 --> 01:57:01,960 Speaker 1: can they do it? Does Ert Kraft actually have the money? Yeah? 2230 01:57:02,320 --> 01:57:04,520 Speaker 1: I think he does. I think it's unlikely that they 2231 01:57:04,560 --> 01:57:06,480 Speaker 1: go out and spend another couple one hundred million on 2232 01:57:06,560 --> 01:57:09,720 Speaker 1: a dozen free agents. I put trey flowers near the top. 2233 01:57:09,760 --> 01:57:12,160 Speaker 1: I would put Trey flowers there. I mean, I want 2234 01:57:12,160 --> 01:57:15,360 Speaker 1: a receiver. DJ Chark is a guy that I kind 2235 01:57:15,400 --> 01:57:18,240 Speaker 1: of like. Don't you think McCaffrey would do well with 2236 01:57:18,600 --> 01:57:22,240 Speaker 1: with mac Jones? No, no, yes, but he definitely would. 2237 01:57:22,240 --> 01:57:25,160 Speaker 1: He's really Yeah, I think McCaffrey would make you guys 2238 01:57:25,200 --> 01:57:27,400 Speaker 1: talk you know, this Matt Jones thing. I don't know know, 2239 01:57:27,520 --> 01:57:29,440 Speaker 1: but Christian McCaffrey is a great No, but you guys 2240 01:57:29,520 --> 01:57:32,000 Speaker 1: talk about you know, we want a playmaker. Yeah, he's 2241 01:57:32,040 --> 01:57:34,920 Speaker 1: a playmaker. Yeah, for three games, he's a playmaker. Oh 2242 01:57:35,120 --> 01:57:37,440 Speaker 1: that's what he does.

He played before that? The last two 2254 01:58:19,960 --> 01:58:22,280 Speaker 1: years he's missed. Okay, he's had a bad run, but 2255 01:58:22,480 --> 01:58:25,520 Speaker 1: before that, he Oh you know what usually happens. You 2256 01:58:25,720 --> 01:58:29,080 Speaker 1: usually get more durable after you missed times. I'm serious, Paul, 2257 01:58:29,240 --> 01:58:31,280 Speaker 1: I am too. He's missed a lot of games last 2258 01:58:31,480 --> 01:58:34,120 Speaker 1: last two years. Yes, his first three years when he 2259 01:58:34,280 --> 01:58:38,120 Speaker 1: was young and spry, he was healthy. Okay, when you 2260 01:58:38,200 --> 01:58:40,520 Speaker 1: start getting the ball one hundred times a year, you 2261 01:58:40,640 --> 01:58:43,280 Speaker 1: get hurt. You wouldn't do that to him here, Well, 2262 01:58:43,280 --> 01:58:44,600 Speaker 1: then I don't want him. If he's not going to 2263 01:58:44,600 --> 01:58:46,280 Speaker 1: be a guy who's gonna get one hundred touches, well 2264 01:58:46,280 --> 01:58:48,240 Speaker 1: you're not gonna do what Carolina did with him. So 2265 01:58:48,360 --> 01:58:51,880 Speaker 1: you make him that the upgraded version of James White. 2266 01:58:51,960 --> 01:58:54,240 Speaker 1: Well maybe a little bit more than that. Yeah, yeah, 2267 01:58:54,480 --> 01:58:57,040 Speaker 1: I don't want him getting James White touches with that 2268 01:58:57,280 --> 01:59:00,680 Speaker 1: track record injury wise. This is my pointing exactly. He 2269 01:59:00,840 --> 01:59:04,120 Speaker 1: won't hold up. I don't know about that. I can 2270 01:59:04,240 --> 01:59:07,080 Speaker 1: understand the great player frustration though, because the talent, he's 2271 01:59:07,160 --> 01:59:09,960 Speaker 1: kind of their marquee guy, right, and he can't get 2272 01:59:10,000 --> 01:59:11,520 Speaker 1: on the field. I mean, so much of the art 2273 01:59:11,520 --> 01:59:13,520 Speaker 1: offense went through his, Everything went through him. You go 2274 01:59:13,600 --> 01:59:15,160 Speaker 1: into the year and you talk about this is our 2275 01:59:15,200 --> 01:59:18,280 Speaker 1: guy and he gets hurt and you're like, whoa. Every 2276 01:59:18,360 --> 01:59:21,520 Speaker 1: year it's you know with Henry, right, although I mean 2277 01:59:21,560 --> 01:59:24,760 Speaker 1: if he's durable, yeah, yeah, except for last time, right, 2278 01:59:24,880 --> 01:59:27,360 Speaker 1: that's once. So is he gonna get better because you 2279 01:59:27,400 --> 01:59:30,360 Speaker 1: don't get better? Paul? Let me ask you something. Do 2280 01:59:30,480 --> 01:59:33,440 Speaker 1: you think he'll get hurt into the show took? Do 2281 01:59:33,480 --> 01:59:34,920 Speaker 1: you think he'll get hurt this year? I don't know. 2282 01:59:35,120 --> 01:59:38,680 Speaker 1: I do her. Yeah, I think the chances are when 2283 01:59:38,720 --> 01:59:41,440 Speaker 1: you play sixteen sixteen sixteen, then you get hurt, chances 2284 01:59:41,480 --> 01:59:43,360 Speaker 1: are you gonna keep getting hurt? Okay, So I would 2285 01:59:43,400 --> 01:59:46,960 Speaker 1: say yes, they should move on from that. Wow, Wow, 2286 01:59:47,360 --> 01:59:50,040 Speaker 1: I'll take him. Go ahead, y'all know I would take him, 2287 01:59:50,960 --> 01:59:54,560 Speaker 1: but not on the face in the biblical sense.
