It's not more football, it's bad foot. 5 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: All right. We must say that Nate Hackett got fired 6 00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 1: along with him. He's Nate. Now I did the same, 7 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:31,400 Speaker 1: would kill him. The last one he's throws into double coverage, like, 8 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,640 Speaker 1: what are you thinking? Well, well, you see, Paul, it 9 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 1: probably wasn't thinking clearly. His brain hit his skull. Gino's 10 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:39,639 Speaker 1: piece had to do with a dream I had. Well, 11 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:44,000 Speaker 1: we'll get into that sometimes. Yeah, No, it's about dreaming 12 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: about Geno's peace unit. Remember Johnson. A lot of coaches 13 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 1: will teach the players to actually high five and not 14 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: like that, but the point of doing it. We're running mesh, guys. 15 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: The point of the high five. This is a guy 16 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 1: thinking about Mac. You know, why don't you guys talk 17 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 1: to you know, let me know what you think or 18 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 1: whatever you know. No, no, like I'm snarky, he's flat 19 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 1: out me. Sounds like their vacuuming outside. What's going on 20 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: for the mass of the Patriots on the field. He's 21 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: Patriot's unfiltered, fueled by all Right, welcome the Patriots Unfiltered. 22 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 1: It's Wednesday here at Gillette Stadium, getting ready for the 23 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:31,320 Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins, and uh two remains in concussion. Oh he's out, 24 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 1: Oh he is, Yeah, McDaniel announced the Okay, he did 25 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: have a concussion. Okay, had a concussion. He has a concussion, 26 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:42,400 Speaker 1: and so he's Teddy Bridgewater will start, Teddy two gloves. 27 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,760 Speaker 1: Oh wait a minute, could you just said he's out 28 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 1: of protocol. No, he's out, he's out. Teddy Bridgewater will start. Okay, 29 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: because I was confused, Daniel. I just saw that he 30 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: remained in protocol and maybe you had an he had 31 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: No McDaniel said he has a concussion, and Teddy Bridgewater 32 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 1: will start. Okay, you know, always works stuff. Let's hope. 33 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 1: So this is their jam though, I mean, no quarterback, 34 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: let's go. I would expect the Dolphins to lose by 35 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: one hundred and twelve points because they had you know, 36 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 1: the stupidity of actually saying it on Wednesday. I don't 37 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: know how you can play a game when well, now 38 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,959 Speaker 1: they're gonna just prepare for Teddy Bridgewater and we're gonna 39 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: be completely ready for them, correct, right, that's why we're 40 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 1: out in the field. It moved out to the field today. 41 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: Kind of interesting practice. Yeah, in the stadium, practice in 42 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: the bowl. Um. Any thoughts on that, No, I have 43 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 1: not not one. No, No, I'll let you guys fight it. 44 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: Usually it's a Friday thing you get close to the 45 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 1: end of the season. I feel like they do the 46 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 1: last walk through. Um, but I don't know. I think 47 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: usually Wednesdays are like first second down days where it's 48 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: a lot of like that that kind of stuff you're 49 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: putting in and tomorrow's like third down, red zone that 50 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 1: kind of stuff. It could be just a field maintenance 51 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: thing on the practice fields because I noticed, like a 52 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: couple weeks ago, I went out and they had like 53 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: these lights that are on a grid and they were 54 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: actually heating up a section of the grass that they 55 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: were trying to grow on the lower practice field. Nice 56 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: supposed to Yeah, you can put Jesus out of it. Yeah, 57 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,799 Speaker 1: growing grass out there with that was going on. So maybe, 58 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: you know, maybe it's just a field maintenance thing. Yeah, 59 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: you know, maybe things got torn up because of the 60 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 1: you know, the quick freeze that we had and now 61 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: they're trying to recover from that or something like that. 62 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,079 Speaker 1: You know, I you know, like you think, oh, what's this, 63 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: you know, competitive reason and it could be like something 64 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,640 Speaker 1: as simple as that. You know, field Boyd took a 65 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: dump on the field. They couldn't paint it up fast enough, right, 66 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,919 Speaker 1: he's the dog. Just you know, it's not we don't 67 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:38,119 Speaker 1: have better than the team on the field yesterday. He's 68 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: just rude. Yeah, very very rude. Means yes, I am. 69 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 1: As we were waiting for Bill here to kick us 70 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: off on our on our Wednesday. It does. We'll go 71 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: to him, see what the initial questions are about, see 72 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: if there's anything of interest, and if if not, then 73 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: we'll come right back to the show. But was preparing 74 00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: for Teddy Bridgewater playing change their offense and make all 75 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: the throws. But both gloves a lot of experience in 76 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: the league. He's won in this league. Obviously we've seen Teddy. 77 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 1: Can I ask cast a little question? I um, I'm 78 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: just what do you think Miami's mindset? What do you 79 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: think they're thinking with this whole situation. It's it's a 80 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 1: really hard position for a team to be in because 81 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: on one hand, you had too a plane great this 82 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: year for for a period of time, and it seemed like, man, 83 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: this is kind of putting some of the chatter to rest. 84 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: Now he's got a real, like potential issue that could 85 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: end his career. I mean, he could potentially retire. How 86 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 1: do you approach that as an organization when he's got 87 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: kind of got a guy, but we kind of don't 88 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: have a Ya, he's got an issue. When McDaniel has 89 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 1: an issue, you know, because ultimately it's going to be 90 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: his decision next year about like how much do we 91 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 1: invest in this guy because he's gonna assume he's never 92 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: gonna get concussed again. Like, I mean, it's just it's 93 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 1: it seems like now whenever he gets hit and hits 94 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: the ground, it's got a concussion prone quarterback, you know, 95 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,479 Speaker 1: And and it's a it's a huge issue, and it's 96 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: not an easy want to navigate because of the yeah, 97 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,599 Speaker 1: you know the nature of the injury. And man, I 98 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: think it's probably three at the very least, it's three 99 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,839 Speaker 1: incidents in one season. Like you have to think long 100 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 1: and hard if you're too uh, you know, should I 101 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 1: keep playing? Is it worth it for me to keep playing? Yeah? 102 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: So I mean, I think that they will be in 103 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: the market. I know I was joking yesterday, you know 104 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: about Brady, but they should be in the market for 105 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: a veteran. Yeah, is that what you would do? You think, 106 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: like I try to get a guy. Maybe not, they're 107 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 1: not going to be in position. Well do they have 108 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,119 Speaker 1: extra do they have any more of those extra draft picks? 109 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what Miami situation is. I shouldn't say 110 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 1: they don't because they're not going to be in position 111 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 1: to take a quarterback high chub chub. Yeah, I think 112 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: they did the kind of here comes Bill. I don't know. 113 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: Let's see what Bill has to say. All right, slighting 114 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:50,359 Speaker 1: week here for the Dolphins. Seems like I spent a 115 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:55,359 Speaker 1: long time since we were just down there, but it 116 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: has been that's a lot of a lot of water 117 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 1: under the bridge since then. But um, yeah, good football team. 118 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,599 Speaker 1: Look a lot like they look. They've looked allier like 119 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 1: they've looked in the past. Honestly, defensively, a big physical 120 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: team on defense. Um, have some fast players in the 121 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: kicking game, some other physical guys, and they're explosive on offense. 122 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: So um, you know, they've they look really, really impressive 123 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: at times, and you know, no, it's an important game 124 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 1: here obviously, so do everything we can to play our 125 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: best game on Sunday. That's what we need to do. 126 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 1: That's what adults take, and that's what that's what we're 127 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: preparing for. You've always said that you prepare for everybody 128 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: that's on the roster, and you've got two and you've 129 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: got Teddy Bridgewater with situation this week. Is this a 130 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,839 Speaker 1: case where you have to prepare actually two different things 131 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: because two and Teddy Bridgewater they're definitely different quarterbacks and 132 00:06:53,760 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: they do different things. Situation. You can't go in a 133 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:05,159 Speaker 1: game with two different offenses. It's impossible. So once right 134 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 1: hand and once left handed. I mean that definitely affects 135 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: some things right there, but that's we could be looking 136 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: at a different quarterback, just like are in Arizona, you know, 137 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: in the first series of the game. So yeah, yeah, 138 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: some audio issues there, so I don't want to make 139 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: our listeners ears bleed yet. But I obviously that was 140 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: Allan's seed over. That was Alan Siegel that asked that question. 141 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: He hadn't gotten the news. But Tua is out, so 142 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: you will be going with the right handed Yeah, McDaniel, 143 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: I'm not I didn't like misread that right, And McDaniel 144 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: said he's in concussion protocol and Teddy Bridgewater will start. 145 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: He talked about having him. He was up last night, 146 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: you know, after ten o'clock talking to Bridgewater about the week, 147 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 1: and you know what they were going to do. And 148 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 1: now I kind of agree with Bill in the regard. 149 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously righty, lefty and all that stuff, but 150 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: it's going to be the offense is going to be 151 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: pretty similar, and they do have the ability to go 152 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,679 Speaker 1: back and look at a couple of games that Bridgewaters started. 153 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: They didn't win the games, and they weren't as productive 154 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: offensively as they were with Tah. But he played reasonably 155 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: well for the bulk of the game against Cincinnati on 156 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: the Thursday night when he had to replace Toah. And 157 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: he played um reasonably well against Minnesota. I think he 158 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: threw for over three hundred yards against the Vikings, and 159 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: really the big play in that game was a jail 160 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: and waddle fumble late in the game. He had a 161 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: big play across the middle. I remember seeing it Mike 162 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: on Red Zone during the postgame show that week, and 163 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 1: he fumbled the ball and you know, I don't think 164 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: his numbers were great, but they weren't. They weren't bad. 165 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: You know. I think he kind of guy who you know, 166 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 1: in a stretch, he can he can help you out. 167 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,959 Speaker 1: It's not Sam Ellinger. You know, we were just talking 168 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: about Matt Smith and he was saying, you know, Ellinger, 169 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 1: you know, this is not like the same as backup quarterback. 170 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: This is a guy who's played in the UT. Now. 171 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 1: I don't think he's very good, and I don't think 172 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 1: he's as good as Tah, But it's not Sam Ellinger. 173 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: It's not Colt McCoy. Yeah, yeah, not Jacobe Brossett. I 174 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,079 Speaker 1: mean there's a little bit better player than that. I mean, still, 175 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 1: the for the Patriots, the focus has to be the offense, 176 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: like can we score points? You know, forget about Teddy Bridgewater, 177 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: you know, forget about that. You know, can we score points? Well? 178 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: I mean the whole thing about playing the backup quarterback 179 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: is you might not have to no, but but you 180 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 1: know the bar might be a little lower, Like you 181 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: didn't have to score at Pittsburgh. Regardless of that, you 182 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: need your offense to show some signs of life. They 183 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:34,719 Speaker 1: don't have to do something, and they're certainly gonna have 184 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: to eliminate the dumb mistakes right at the end in 185 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: the most critical moments. But you know, I think they 186 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 1: they've done an okay job overall of limiting you know, 187 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: some of those mistakes lately, which were such a problem 188 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: earlier in the season. They've improved there, you know, standing 189 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: in as far as turnovers. But I think it just 190 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: shows how bad they are because usually if you eliminated 191 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: those turnovers, you'd feel like there was a monumental kind 192 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 1: of turnaround. And it just feels like, all right now, 193 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: at least they are maybe giving themselves a chance. Before 194 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 1: they didn't really have a chance when they were going 195 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 1: into games turning the ball over. I mean, they're just 196 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: going back and looking at the first Miami game right 197 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: off the bat, after watching that whole summer of training 198 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,439 Speaker 1: camp and what we talked about yesterday, all the sporadic 199 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 1: nature of the offense. You know, they come out, they 200 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: kind of go right down the field and then macdows 201 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: that pick and it was, you know, kind of the 202 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 1: table was somewhat set for the year, and you know, 203 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: and then Miami just continued to kind of pull pour 204 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: it on in the first half. I mean, it's just 205 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,719 Speaker 1: it's similar to what we saw last week where they 206 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: come out they make it up on mistakes. They were 207 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: in a hole and they got to figure out how 208 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: to dig their way out of it. So maybe it's 209 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 1: your point, Fred, it's all about they just have a 210 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: good start, you know, have a good start, get a 211 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 1: little bit of a lead, and see what happens. See 212 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: what happens when when the offense is actually playing from 213 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 1: in front or you know, maybe even dare I say, 214 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 1: feeling kind of good about themselves. Hey, we just had 215 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: a really good first drive, like I would be even 216 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 1: okay with okay first drive, you get a few first downs. 217 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: So when you're punting, you know, maybe you're punting inside 218 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: their ten and they're starting inside the twenty instead of 219 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 1: the thirty five. You know, like those little the hidden yards. 220 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: Now that makes a difference, you know, didn't you know 221 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: the punting situations to watch this week with you know, 222 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: Jake Bailey and I mean I think the kickoffs is 223 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,719 Speaker 1: starting to get a little bit more of attention. I mean, 224 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:14,839 Speaker 1: you know, Paul has been all over this with with 225 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: you know, just the punt team and the kickoff team. 226 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,679 Speaker 1: I mean, those two sides of the ball have just 227 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 1: you know, not really been helping all that much in 228 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: terms of field position lately. And I think early in 229 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: the year they were like the number one offense for 230 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: starting field positions, So I mean they were on that 231 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: side of the ball getting a good boost. But you know, 232 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: on the other side of the ball, it's it's been 233 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,839 Speaker 1: a little bit hit or miss. Yeah, I mean, I 234 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: do think that what you guys are talking about, you know, 235 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 1: getting the lead and playing with a little bit more 236 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 1: confidence earlier in games, and it you know, they really 237 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: haven't been able to do that for a while now. Yeah, 238 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:53,439 Speaker 1: you know, I think, uh, they really haven't had they 239 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 1: haven't had the ball in the lead. It seems like 240 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,440 Speaker 1: for you know, like six weeks. Yeah, briefly with the Maiders. 241 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 1: I mean, if they did have the ball with the 242 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: lead on that last drive and they went three and out, 243 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: that that was true, but that is true. I forgot 244 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: that one. And that kind of stands out as, Oh, 245 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 1: my gosh, we've got an opportunity to win the game ourselves, 246 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:14,599 Speaker 1: not you know, not have to. We gotta get a 247 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 1: stop and then we gotta get like just but they 248 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 1: couldn't and even in that game, you know, they had 249 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 1: fallen behind by two scores, but they did. They did 250 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 1: have the lead in the ball late. Um, but they 251 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 1: were chasing in that game. They fell behind in the 252 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: Cardinals game, they fell behind in the Bills game. Even 253 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: though they took a seven three lead, they immediately went 254 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: right back down ten to seven the next drive. Um, 255 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 1: you know, the you probably go back to the Minnesota game, 256 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 1: which I think was kind of back and back and 257 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 1: forth a little bit. And the Patriots did have the 258 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: lead in that game that that was Thanksgiving. That was 259 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: a long time ago. Yeah. So, um, in terms of injuries, 260 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: what do we know, Well, we'll see with the first 261 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 1: injury report today. I mean that's you know, kind of 262 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: an interesting one. Curious if you know Jalen Mills and 263 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,160 Speaker 1: Jack are able to come back. I mean, you know, 264 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: I think we I mean, Damian Harris, like what, I 265 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: think that's a good thing. Paul's pointing this out too, 266 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,439 Speaker 1: Like Damian Harris, Jaylen Mills, what's going on with those guys? 267 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 1: Like are they you know what I'm starting to worry 268 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: I wonder about there, Freddie, Oh yeah, thing, Yeah, I mean, 269 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: you know, Damian Harris thigh Brews. I mean, I just 270 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: I'm surprised because I figured he's looking at a contract. 271 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 1: I mean, he's gonna want to end this year maybe 272 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: with you performance. He just hasn't been part of the team. 273 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:22,679 Speaker 1: It feels like this year. I mean, and the guy 274 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 1: that's been, you know, kind of a team leader, just 275 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: doesn't feel like he's been involved. I mean, I struggle 276 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: to remember him really having a big impact on the game. 277 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: It opened the door for Remondra to, you know, really 278 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,559 Speaker 1: take over, but it's just unfortunate. Damian Harris had a 279 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: bunch of touchdowns last year, but just hasn't at this point. 280 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:41,319 Speaker 1: If he were active on Sunday, I would expect him 281 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 1: to just like sort of pick up some scrap kind 282 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: of carries. Yeah, you know, and I think he can 283 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 1: be better with those, Yeah, I think he. I think 284 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: he could be more productive with those than Kevin Harris 285 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 1: and Peter Strong have been. But I'm not really to 286 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 1: your point, Like I can't really think of a Damien 287 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: Harris game this year. There were a couple stretches in 288 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 1: games where he looked good, had a couple of good care. 289 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: There was one game in particular that he had a 290 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: lot more production than Stevenson. And I forget which one 291 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: it was now, maybe Buffalo, I mean, I forget which 292 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: game it was. But yeah, he hasn't really he hasn't 293 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: really clicked like he did at times last year. Yep. 294 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: But I think Mills and Jack Jones on the other side, 295 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: you know, given this, I mean, if you have a 296 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 1: backup quarterback playing, even one that has some experience like Bridgewater, 297 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: I mean, it's gonna help him out greatly if he 298 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: can throw a you know, a fifteen yard crossing route 299 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: to waddle and go eighty four yards like he did 300 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 1: last week. Yeah, and he's leading the league in yardspur catch. 301 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: So I mean that's what you need. You need some 302 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 1: of those guys out there, you do. You need Jones's speed. 303 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: But I don't know if he's gonna be healthy, you know, 304 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: like him at eighty percent is that good enough? You know, 305 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 1: oh if he's not healthy, yeah, healthy. I'm just saying now, 306 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: I think they're just you want to get You want 307 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 1: to get Mills and Jones back in there, because I 308 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 1: don't think you want to. I don't think you want 309 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: to be down to Marcus Jones and Miles Bryant. No, 310 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 1: you don't even have a rotation right now with what 311 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: you have. I mean before they had at least a 312 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: rotation with Mills and Jones on Jonathan Jones on the 313 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: outside and Jack would kind of work in a little bit, 314 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 1: and then you had some options in the slot to 315 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 1: play with Marcus Jones and Miles Brian a little bit. 316 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 1: But they don't really have those options right now, and 317 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: I mean, it's, uh, it's tough, tough duo to kind 318 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: of match up with. I am. I mean, I admit 319 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 1: I'm curious when we drafted Marcus Jones watching him play 320 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: as a cornerback, just how quick he is, and you 321 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: know how how that has ability to stick with guys, 322 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 1: and you know, it was hard not to draw. Not 323 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: not that they're going to line them up on Tyreek, 324 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 1: but you know, these are guys that are explosive, and 325 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 1: I think Marcus Jones is one of the few guys 326 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 1: on the roster that you know has the speed to 327 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: stick with these guys or at least you know, be competitive. 328 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 1: You know that they are what they are. Though it's 329 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: it's it's tough to I think he's going to be 330 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 1: involved with Waddle. I mean, even if even if you 331 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 1: get Jack Jones and Mills back, Like, I think that 332 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 1: Marcus Jones is still going to play a big role, 333 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 1: and I think obviously Jonathan Jones is I think going 334 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: to be involved with Tyreek Hill because he's done that 335 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 1: a lot. Yea, So you're going to get an opportunity 336 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: to see, you know, how some of these matchups unfold. 337 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's going to come down to 338 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: what they do upfront, if they can continue to get 339 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 1: the pressure that they've periodically been able to provide, because 340 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: I think if you just sit back and let any 341 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: quarterback right surveyed the field with this group of receivers, 342 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: it's going to be a long day. Yep. Yeah, I 343 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: hope Barmore continues to kind of get backs. Been playing. 344 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 1: I think he's been pretty good. I mean he's another 345 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 1: one I kind of have a crush on, so I'll 346 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 1: probably not yeah, I mean, only impartial. I think to 347 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 1: Paul's point, I think what he's part of the product, 348 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: you know, on the four guys and getting the rush 349 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 1: and taking attention. I mean, I think we'd all just 350 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 1: like to see him be a little bit more productive 351 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 1: and a little bit more you know, have some of 352 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: those signature kind of moments. I mean, I thought against 353 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 1: Derek Carr that first play, I don't think he get credit, 354 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: but he I mean, he got on him fast. I 355 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 1: mean that was, you know, probably the one play that 356 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 1: that really stood out so far. But I just that 357 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: he's the kind of guy you need. And I mean 358 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,399 Speaker 1: I don't I don't remember what his status was last year. Remember, 359 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 1: I think he got hurt against in the initial Buffalo 360 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 1: game and then was kind of we didn't know if 361 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:11,959 Speaker 1: he was gonna be hurt. I don't know if he's 362 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:13,159 Speaker 1: one hundred percent at the end of the year. I 363 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: just guys like Mills you didn't have at the end 364 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 1: of last year, you got Covid against Buffalo. Would love 365 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,199 Speaker 1: to just see Barmore kind of peak and you know, 366 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 1: just put a nice cap to his season so that 367 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: you have something coming out of here of oh yeah, 368 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 1: but he got Teddy Bridgewater a couple of times, and 369 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 1: you know it's a big part of that win. Yeah. 370 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 1: I think what I've been most impressed about is he 371 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 1: looks like he's better against the run then than he was. 372 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: I don't think he was an every down player last year. Yeah, 373 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,440 Speaker 1: And I think he's been asked to do more of 374 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 1: that he's been stout. Yeah yeah, um yeah, so we'll 375 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 1: we'll get our first practice in h Evan will be 376 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 1: at practice today, um and then um they'll actually be 377 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: in the locker room later yep. So maybe we'll get 378 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,480 Speaker 1: a little mood stuff, get some see what idea of 379 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 1: what the mood is? Well here from mock Yeah, this 380 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: afternoon as well. I think it's uh like Mac and 381 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 1: Ooch and a lot of the Stevenson I think so 382 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:03,159 Speaker 1: a lot of the big names will be talking to 383 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 1: get Myers before that too, right right after practice. Yeah yeah, 384 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 1: so yeah, you know you wonder like what the mood is, 385 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, after that game another I just think, 386 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,159 Speaker 1: I know, well, it's just crazy that they're even that 387 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: they're even like that there's a path and that they 388 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,120 Speaker 1: even control it themselves, and like, I don't know, I mean, 389 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 1: you guys played on teams like you have that kind 390 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:28,680 Speaker 1: of ability to be like, yeah, we sucked all year, 391 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 1: but hey, if we could just put two games together 392 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 1: like it, we might actually rewrite some of how this 393 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,200 Speaker 1: season has gone. You know, I don't know, it's it's 394 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 1: it's hard to predict it just because I'm so resigned 395 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 1: to Like when the offense came out last week and 396 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: had six straight punts, it was just like, yeah, that's 397 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 1: what it is. I wasn't expecting them to, you know, 398 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 1: come out and suddenly get it, just like this week, 399 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:47,919 Speaker 1: I'm not really expecting to suddenly get it. I just 400 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 1: expect against Teddy Bridgewater and what that offense is gonna 401 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 1: be able to put up that you'll be able to 402 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 1: stay in the game and later. It's always a good 403 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,959 Speaker 1: indicator of at least knowing what the spin is in 404 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 1: the locker room, like what's the message that's going out, 405 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:04,399 Speaker 1: And like what he was saying this week is we 406 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 1: see what we can do when we do it right, 407 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 1: you know, and we just need to be consistent. We 408 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 1: lack consistency, but we all see when we do things right, 409 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 1: we can compete, we can do things, you know, And yeah, like, 410 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 1: are by our guys buying that? And are they motivated 411 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,639 Speaker 1: by that? I just laugh because I think they've been 412 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:28,920 Speaker 1: incredibly consistent. Well yeah, like they've been consistently you know, 413 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 1: and that's that's who they are. I don't say I 414 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 1: agree with Mike. I don't think they're any consistent. I 415 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: think more often than not, they're not productive. I think 416 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: Mike is right, well, on offense, they're not right. I 417 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 1: mean the penalties you're getting six, you're getting six plus 418 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: penalties pretty much every week. You're probably gonna have, if 419 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 1: not a turnover in the first three quarters, you're probably 420 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: definitely getting one in the fourth quarter. I mean, you know, 421 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 1: it's like going, we're gonna punt a lot game, like, 422 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 1: I mean, that's what they've done almost every game, you know, 423 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 1: and there when you can say, like oh, the Minnesota 424 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 1: game or um, the Cleveland game, like that's a sign 425 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: that your offense hasn't been good when you like cherry 426 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:08,119 Speaker 1: pick the games that it was good, you know, maybe 427 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,199 Speaker 1: the biggest indictment of all is like you said, like 428 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,119 Speaker 1: the other day, they start the game with six punts. 429 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 1: Did anybody say, oh my god, I can't believe what 430 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: I'm watching. Right, No, that's them. No, you know, it's 431 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 1: more like here we go again, right, bring in zappy. 432 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:25,920 Speaker 1: I mean the zappy chance started on the second series 433 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 1: of the game in the crowd, right. I mean, I 434 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,159 Speaker 1: would almost just say that the game's really it just 435 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: matters if the defense makes a key play to get 436 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 1: a turnover at the right time. The difference between winning 437 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 1: and losing is generally how if the defense can can 438 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 1: score or set up a score. Yeah, and the unfortunate 439 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: part of the last couple of games is they have 440 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: scored and they still lost. Like that's like I agree 441 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 1: with Mike, I don't. It's not inconsistent. Like it's just 442 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 1: if they if they go out and they just all 443 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 1: of a sudden put up four hundred and fifty yards 444 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: and thirty four points on Sunday, that would be to 445 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 1: me breaking out of the norm. Yeah, like they haven't 446 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 1: done that, right, but still it's all right there for 447 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:10,640 Speaker 1: the taking, which is just us. And yeah, I mean 448 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: it's I don't I'm not going to get ahead of 449 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 1: myself with with this game, but you know, Buffalo, it 450 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 1: is what I guess the question really is is what 451 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 1: what's Buffalo going to end up having to play for it? 452 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:20,919 Speaker 1: And it seems like they will have something to play for. 453 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: It almost has to be a meaningful game for Buffalo, 454 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,439 Speaker 1: you knows, I know, people are you know pointed to 455 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 1: the scenario that Buffalo could lose and then playoffs host 456 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 1: US in the first round of the playoffs, and that 457 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 1: might be what they want. But I know I don't 458 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: think Buffalo wants to be the team that lost to 459 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 1: allow the Patriots into the playoffs. You know, I think 460 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 1: they want to be the team that not says I 461 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 1: would I would do that if I were Buffalo, if 462 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 1: I wasn't playing for a buye, I would rather have 463 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 1: a bye and have a zero percent chance of losing 464 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: in the first week, as opposed to picking my opponent 465 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: and having a point one percent chance of losing, Like 466 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 1: I can lose, something can happen, and I can lose 467 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 1: to the team that I decided i'd rather play instead 468 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: of having a bye. There's no way they're going to 469 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 1: dump the game if they can get a bye. And 470 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: the only way that they will not have a chance 471 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 1: is if Kansas City loses to Denver, because then they'll 472 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: have it sewed up, so then they'll have to buy 473 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 1: sewed up, if you know, if assuming they win, right, 474 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,119 Speaker 1: but Kansas City has to lose to Denver, that's the 475 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 1: content that like that has to happen. Is it in 476 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 1: Kansas City? Yeah, And they don't even have Nate Hacket anymore, 477 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 1: so oh that could be a plus. So I just 478 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: I think Buffalo is going to have to play the game. 479 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: I don't think you're gonna have that to fall back 480 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 1: on now. I could definitely see, like I'm not in 481 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 1: agreement with Fred, if it was just regular and there 482 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,879 Speaker 1: were no buys, just like what the Patriots did that 483 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: year when they dumped the game against Miami so they 484 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 1: could play Jacksonville. I could definitely see them doing that. 485 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,400 Speaker 1: I don't know what team they'd pick, but they would 486 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,440 Speaker 1: figure out the machinations of which one, and they would 487 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: rather play absolutely. But they're not gonna say I'd rather 488 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 1: play the Patriots in Wildcot weekend than be off in 489 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 1: Wildcot weekend, didn't have a buy. They're not gonna No 490 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,160 Speaker 1: team would do that, No, no, no, All right. Five 491 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 1: five hundred is the A ticket hotline web radio at 492 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:19,640 Speaker 1: Patriots dot com is the email address. Uh, Brian from 493 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 1: Indiana's on the line. What's up, Brian? Hey? Are we 494 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 1: doing good? Hey? I just had a question. Um. I 495 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: know that Bill O'Brien has been in conversation a lot 496 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 1: about becoming the next NOC for next year possibly, and 497 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: I've seen a lot of stuff, um, just from like 498 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 1: Alabama fans on Twitter and stuff like that about them 499 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 1: not really loving Bill O'Brien as an OC. Do we 500 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: really want to bring somebody likes Bill O'Brien just because 501 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 1: he might be better than Patricia and I think he's 502 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 1: an excellent offensive coordinator? Yes, I would. I would take 503 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: him in a heartbeat. And do we think it's a 504 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,160 Speaker 1: good idea? Of Alabama fans are up in arms because 505 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 1: they scored forty nine points and lost rice bill O'Brien's fault. Right, 506 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 1: they lost fifty two to forty nine to Tennessee. Do 507 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:10,400 Speaker 1: we really need another hothead in that locker room? Yes? Yes, 508 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 1: they need someone to push back. Yes, I think that's 509 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,880 Speaker 1: exactly what they need. And don't we pay Bill Belichick 510 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 1: enough money to push back? Well, but I'm talking about 511 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 1: the offensive coaches. He can't be, you know, dealing with 512 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:26,399 Speaker 1: absolutely everybody like the offensive coaches. I think it's been 513 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,199 Speaker 1: a one way street. It's been pushed back from the 514 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: players to the coaches. I think they need a little 515 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 1: bit more the other way and say all right, yeah, 516 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 1: I get it, this is what we're doing, let's do it, 517 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: let's let's be better, let's execute, and maybe even push 518 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 1: back to Bill. Yeah, yeah, sure, absolutely, Yeah. Since the 519 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 1: bar solo right now. I mean, what experienced NFL offensive 520 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 1: coordinator wouldn't you take it at this point? Now if 521 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 1: a guy is as a heartbeat and coach to ye, 522 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 1: to Briant's point, if you if you have like a 523 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:56,239 Speaker 1: young up and coming offensive mind that you're aware of, Um, 524 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: I think I might rather have that than Bill O'Brien. 525 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:00,880 Speaker 1: But I know Bill O'Brien, I know we worked here, 526 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: I know he like what he does works, So yeah, 527 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 1: I think that's uh, I don't know what what better 528 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 1: than that you're going to expect. That's what's frustrating for me, though, 529 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,359 Speaker 1: is that it's it's become so insular here and and 530 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 1: like I just I can't we see a Bill Belichick 531 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 1: taking a young offensive coach that maybe didn't grow up 532 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 1: here but has interesting ideas and using Bill Belichick's knowledge 533 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,159 Speaker 1: to kind of merge with that person's new perspective and 534 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 1: you know, to produce something fresh rather than well, we 535 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 1: had this guy here was ten years ago, and he 536 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 1: knows the system, So you'd rather have, you know, Like 537 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 1: what I'd rather have is what you said. I think 538 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,159 Speaker 1: what what Bill would rather have is and that's and 539 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: that's what's frustrating is that. I just I wonder if 540 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 1: it would be better for Bill Belichick the coach, if 541 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,719 Speaker 1: you know, if he had more of those, you know, 542 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 1: And and I don't want to say that he's like 543 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: actively pushing those kind of perspectives away, although perhaps he is. 544 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: I just think like, if you're going to get to 545 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 1: a new, interesting place, it's just hard to do it 546 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: when you keep recycling the Josh McDaniels and then Bill 547 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 1: O'Brien and then you know, chat O'Shea could maybe you know, 548 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: it's the same kind of guys, Whereas get a whole new, 549 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 1: fresh perspective, somebody who sees the game totally different, and 550 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, maybe you make some magic 551 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 1: by having a totally new perspective. Whereas it is, if 552 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,199 Speaker 1: Phil O'Brian comes here, we're probably just gonna what kind 553 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: of merged this year's offense whatever it is, with what 554 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:21,680 Speaker 1: they used to do and come up with some kind 555 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: of maybe you're able to do what we kind of 556 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:27,880 Speaker 1: thought they were going to do and have the Patriot 557 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 1: system with some Alabama elements to it. You know, who knows. 558 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 1: But I agree with Mike's rant. I like Mike's idea better. 559 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:36,440 Speaker 1: But I don't think that's going to happen. I think 560 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien will be pressure. You know, like it just 561 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 1: feels stale and you know, you'd love to get some. 562 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I kind of equate it to when when 563 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: Floras took over, and I mean not that it's the 564 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 1: same thing, but just how jarring it was to all 565 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 1: of a sudden see kind of a completely different philosophy 566 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: on defense in terms of aggression and sending you know, 567 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: zero blizzes. You think Matt Patricia sentity. I mean, maybe 568 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,439 Speaker 1: I'm wrong, somebody can tell me maybe, but spat As 569 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,199 Speaker 1: sending zero blitz It's like, I don't never remember that 570 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: being like a big part of their game plan. It 571 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 1: was no they rushed three and sometimes four and they 572 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 1: just sit back and wait. That was kind of the philosophy. 573 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 1: And then all of sudden, Florest gets here and it's 574 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,360 Speaker 1: Jamie Collins and down to high tower coming from all 575 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 1: angles and you know, and that was a big part 576 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,239 Speaker 1: of why they won. That last Super Bowl felt like 577 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,120 Speaker 1: one of the ones where they were actively went out 578 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 1: and took it rather than you know, waiting to see 579 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 1: how it goes and then you know, relying on Brady 580 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:31,360 Speaker 1: to pull it out of the end. Melvin's and Tennessee, Hey, Malvina, 581 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:36,639 Speaker 1: what's going on? Hey? Hey? Um? Quick thing about really 582 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 1: just the coaching sample. I know you are talked a 583 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: little bit briefly yesterday about how dry I was possibly 584 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: getting ready to leave out along with all the other 585 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,679 Speaker 1: changes that come from the players stuff like that. I 586 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:53,640 Speaker 1: would help the other and everybody else associated with it 587 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,639 Speaker 1: to figure out some type of way to keep do 588 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,679 Speaker 1: something to keep more of these coaches around. I know 589 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 1: it's even when you're coaching, you do well, they know 590 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:04,679 Speaker 1: I'm going to coach, and you probably have others, you know, 591 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,680 Speaker 1: goals and things you want to do. But when one 592 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 1: person leaves and you know, he takes staff with them, 593 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 1: life with Josh and stuff that it's just hard to 594 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 1: convey your message and keep your message going the right 595 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 1: way when all these changes and stuff that are going around. 596 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:24,120 Speaker 1: So I think that's a point to it. Obviously, it's 597 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 1: I don't know exactly a way to really tix that 598 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:31,159 Speaker 1: are but I wonder if feels and stuff for like, 599 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 1: I don't know how he's going to invest as much 600 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 1: as life, well, I don't want to do a certain 601 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 1: amount of stuff because this person might leave or I 602 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 1: don't know if this person's gonna be with it for 603 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: a while. And why am I going to teach and 604 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: develop and to other stuff with these people that's going 605 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 1: to leave me. I'll be stuck doing the same thing 606 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 1: with somebody else. I think we've come to it. I 607 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: hear what you say. It can't have It can't hurt 608 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: to have a lack of continuity on your coaching staff. However, 609 00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 1: I got a feeling that maybe, with the exception of Mayo, 610 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 1: you know, those days might be behind us because a 611 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 1: lot of that stem from winning. You know. The other 612 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: teams wanted guys who came from a winning culture, you know, 613 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 1: and knew what it took to win. I want those 614 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 1: guys on my staff, or guys leaving like McDaniels and 615 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 1: taking guys with them. We might be we might have 616 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: turned the corner there where like now we're not the 617 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: team with that you know, high price problem that we 618 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: used to be. You know, like I don't know if 619 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 1: anyone's clamoring for Covington or you know, cam Accord, you know, yeah, yeah, 620 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 1: I mean I would, uh, I mean Mayo clearly, I 621 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 1: think he might be one that. Yeah, and if he goes, like, 622 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: does he take anybody with him? I don't know, And 623 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 1: I'm biased for Pellegrino, but I just think he's done 624 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: a really good job coaching up defensive backs consistently, you know, 625 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 1: since he's been here. That was one of my biggest concerns. 626 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 1: And but every team has good coaches. Yeah, you know, 627 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: but I think you're right, And I mean, nobody's coming 628 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 1: to say we gotta go get we gotta go poach 629 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 1: mapat Shirt Joe Judge right now or cam Acorps really 630 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 1: and those are those are the big, you know big 631 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 1: I think you could lose Kaylee too. On the other side, 632 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 1: but the I mean, it's not necessarily good that our 633 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 1: coaches aren't well, yeah, that's the that's the other that's 634 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 1: the flip side of it is that. And I think 635 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 1: there's a lot of teams that especially like the coordinators, 636 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: the hot shot coordinators. You know, other staffs lose their 637 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: coordinators every year and then they figure out what they're 638 00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 1: gonna do. Like Buffalo just lost Brian Dable and they 639 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 1: had a guy ready in Ken Dorsey and it's kind 640 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: of the same offense. I mean, look at Kyle Shanahan, 641 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 1: he's been I mean he's been. Shanahan has done it 642 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:43,479 Speaker 1: more than anybody, right, you know, with all those different 643 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: branches off of that trip and McDaniel and I mean, 644 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 1: everybody's been getting pulled from him and he, you know, 645 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 1: continues to do it. Yeah. One last thing I'm gonna 646 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 1: say about it, just weird for Bill because he always 647 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 1: had a plan ready, even with the players when the 648 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 1: otherman was getting ready. Clearly we're gone his last leg. Yeah, 649 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 1: I had people ready when the passing backs are getting old. Yeah, 650 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 1: you always had somebody ready. So there's a bigger thing 651 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: of getting somebody ready. What happened to that? Well with 652 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 1: the coaching, the losses were so fast it was tough. Yeah. 653 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 1: I do think it's been a little bit out of 654 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 1: the ordinary, like with Flores in McDaniels both taking chunks 655 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 1: with them, right, and what that was nineteen and then 656 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 1: twenty one, So that's twice in three years, right, because 657 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 1: Flores left after the eighteen season, right, So in nineteen 658 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 1: and then after the twenty one season you had top 659 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 1: flight assistants leaving and taking significant pieces of the rest 660 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 1: of the staff. We bring this up all the time. 661 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 1: Mike and I talk about this all the time, Like 662 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 1: a guy like jet Fish very well could have been 663 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 1: one of those guys that they said, well, we know 664 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 1: we're gonna lose Josh at some point, and then they 665 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 1: ended up losing jet Fish when he got a head 666 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: coaching job at Arizona. So sometimes you do have a 667 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 1: plan and it just doesn't work. It doesn't think you 668 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: got you gotta mentioned the retirements too as part of it. 669 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 1: I mean, those are but that's something you should that's 670 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 1: something you should have been prepared. You knew Iman was 671 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 1: going to be going, Dante was going to be going, 672 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: and don't they already retired once. Yeah, I mean they 673 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 1: have a small staff as it is, and I mean 674 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 1: I just I have trouble being like, well, you don't 675 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 1: want to promote guys, you don't want to really really 676 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 1: really am I wrong? Nor they just don't give guys titles. 677 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 1: And they have the same amount of the number of 678 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 1: and you're allowed to have as many as you want, 679 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 1: So it's not an excuse if you have a small statuff. 680 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 1: I know, but they choose to have a small staff. 681 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 1: But I would say they were net negative last year 682 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 1: in terms of coaches that they lost in coaches that 683 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 1: they brought in. It didn't really like they didn't really 684 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 1: hire anybody. They lost a lot. I mean, they didn't 685 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 1: hire a wide receivers coach, they didn't hire an offensive 686 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 1: coordinator they did, you know, So I just you're not 687 00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 1: really prepared. I don't think that you can build a 688 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 1: team by saying, well, I don't want anybody to leave, 689 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 1: like you want to develop good coaches who in turn 690 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 1: coach a team well and then you win, and then 691 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 1: that's what happens. I mean, it's just part of it. 692 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 1: You can't say, well, we want to just be a 693 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 1: middling team, so no one takes our coaches like so, 694 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 1: I I just think it comes with you've got to 695 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,520 Speaker 1: restock the cupboards. And I don't think that they restock 696 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: the cupboards last year with young coaching. I think they 697 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 1: have to do it this year. Yeah, thanks Melvin. You know, 698 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 1: and you got to ask the question and we don't 699 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 1: know the answer, like why aren't you know, coaches so 700 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:19,239 Speaker 1: willing to go with Josh, to go with Flores? You know, 701 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 1: is it a money thing? You know, it's probably a 702 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 1: variety of it. You know, it's not necessarily upward mobility. 703 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: It's a lateral move in some cases, but I'm going 704 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:29,880 Speaker 1: to be making more money. Well, I think it's it's 705 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 1: it's upward mobility too. I think if you're Micke Lombardi 706 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,800 Speaker 1: and Bill and Bill Belichick told you're gonna be the 707 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator and now you have a decision to make, 708 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 1: yeah right, my guess is you didn't ask him that, right, Yeah? Yeah. 709 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 1: And I think that that feeds into it was kind 710 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 1: of the start of it with with not having a 711 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:47,239 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator and now not having an offensive coordinator. So 712 00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 1: the staff in general has just become kind of this 713 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: nebulous team, we're going to do it together kind of thing. 714 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 1: And I mean, I totally get why guys would be 715 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 1: like you, I want I want to go somewhere where 716 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:57,960 Speaker 1: I know where I stand, I know where I'm headed, 717 00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,080 Speaker 1: and you know, for better or worse, at least, I'm not, 718 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 1: you know, part of this like group think effort that 719 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:04,720 Speaker 1: you know, I get all the blame and none of 720 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 1: the credit. Really, And just to be clear, I'm not 721 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 1: suggesting that I would have given the offensive coordinator job 722 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: to Micke Lombardi. I'm just using as an example. Sometimes 723 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 1: guys leave, you know, like, was there any clamor of 724 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,799 Speaker 1: like chat O'shay becoming an offensive coordinator when he was 725 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 1: with the Patriots. Not really, No, then he left and 726 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 1: he became an offensive coordinate, so it is upward for that. Yeah. 727 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 1: As as in addition to what again, another thing we 728 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 1: don't know for sure money, Yeah, we don't know that 729 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 1: for certain. But in the past, you know, Brad Seeley 730 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 1: for example, he wanted more money and they wouldn't give 731 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 1: it to him, and he left. Yeah, you know, uh 732 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 1: but interesting out of shape like he got he got 733 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 1: rid of him right after one year, and then they 734 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 1: brought back like chan Gailey right like with like that. 735 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:50,799 Speaker 1: They brought chan Gailey in the year of Fitzpatrick, so 736 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:53,840 Speaker 1: that was nineteen. They brought him in specifically for for 737 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:58,399 Speaker 1: for that with oh shit, and then they changed. Part 738 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,440 Speaker 1: of that is Floor is like that, like yeah, I 739 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 1: know Flores is like you know, the like they should 740 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:05,799 Speaker 1: bring in Flores because he'll change everything. He'll fix out. 741 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:08,799 Speaker 1: I don't think Flores had a tremendously successful tenure as 742 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: the Dolphins head coach. I think he did a good job. 743 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,280 Speaker 1: I think they played hard. I think he couldn't figure 744 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 1: out offense and couldn't figure out how he wanted to 745 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 1: run the offense, and that hurt them. And certainly the 746 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:24,319 Speaker 1: way he treated Tour hurt the offense, like not not 747 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 1: embracing him in any way, shape or form. Yeah. Um so, yeah, 748 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 1: I think that Flores is a good football coach. But 749 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,359 Speaker 1: I just don't think that, you know, you hire him 750 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 1: and that solves all your problems. We're especially biased because 751 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 1: and I and I really like but I really like Flores, Yeah, 752 00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:42,319 Speaker 1: I mean I do. I just don't think that he 753 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 1: was a great head coach. Well he did a good 754 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:47,320 Speaker 1: job was going on there with the owner in meddling, 755 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 1: and well the owner wasn't telling him to change offensive 756 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 1: coordinators every five minutes. No, but you just you just 757 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 1: wonder like if he didn't want Tour, you know, like 758 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, it just seems like there 759 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 1: was a lot of stuff going on behind the scenes 760 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 1: in Miami. Yeah, And that's why I think, like a 761 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 1: lot of other people in Miami will probably have the 762 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 1: better perspective, and I think they echo a lot of 763 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:09,719 Speaker 1: what Paul saying that it was It was not as 764 00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 1: it was more dysfunctional than it even might have appeared. 765 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 1: But the you know, why was it you know him 766 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,640 Speaker 1: or was it comvocation issues? I mean I think some 767 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:20,920 Speaker 1: people found him, you know, that didn't like how we 768 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 1: communicated me. That was something part of it. Yeah, William 769 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:28,479 Speaker 1: and Fellam, what's up? William? What's going on? Fred? Paul 770 00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 1: and Mike? Hey, Hey, how are you'all doing? Um? Just 771 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:37,600 Speaker 1: two things and I'm actuely Paul. First, Um the T 772 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:39,920 Speaker 1: Higgins thing that you were saying with T Higgins? And 773 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:44,320 Speaker 1: um was the other guy, Um, Jerry Judy. I loved that. 774 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 1: I loved that. Ye throw DeAndre Hopkins in there too. 775 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 1: Everybody's everybody's you know, assuming he's going to be available too, 776 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:55,080 Speaker 1: So throw throw them all in the mix. I'll take 777 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:58,440 Speaker 1: I'll take any of those guys. Um, you know, Hopkins 778 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,160 Speaker 1: is the best of those three, probably, but I would 779 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 1: rather have Higgins because of age right now. I think 780 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 1: he's a guy that you could really build around size too, 781 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:10,000 Speaker 1: as we saw last week. I mean it's he's a 782 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:11,879 Speaker 1: really good player, and I think that he has done 783 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 1: enough when Chase has been out of the lineup for 784 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 1: me to think he can produce even when the coverage 785 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 1: just rolled to him. Yeah. You know, some of those 786 00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:21,759 Speaker 1: guys are great second banders, and then you you pay 787 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 1: him like a number one guy and they come in 788 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:25,839 Speaker 1: and they're like, oh, you never faced the double team before. 789 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 1: But I think he has. I think he's yeah, I 790 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 1: think he's been the man. Okay, Um, my last question 791 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 1: is this, and I just need you all three to 792 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 1: be honest with me your faith. Do you do you 793 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:42,919 Speaker 1: want change? Paul, Mike and Freeth. I mean I'm being 794 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 1: I want you to just be honest with me, like 795 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 1: we were just sitting around the table, of course, and 796 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:47,960 Speaker 1: we just haven't you know, man a man? Do you 797 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 1: want change for this team? Yeah? And do you think 798 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 1: you're gonna get that change from the greatest coach of 799 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:55,040 Speaker 1: all time? I mean, I want you to be honest. 800 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 1: I have to think so, I have to think so. 801 00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 1: I mean, this is below the pail of acceptability, of 802 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:02,160 Speaker 1: acceptability for anybody I would but absolutely, I mean, I 803 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 1: I don't want to watch another year of this offense 804 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:09,880 Speaker 1: like this. I mean, it's it's terrible NFL offense, not 805 00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 1: normal offense. And that's Fred. Yeah, and you've been saying 806 00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 1: that for about eight weeks right now. I think I 807 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 1: think I keep going back to like builds a smart guy. 808 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:24,280 Speaker 1: He's not. He knows more. He forgot more about football 809 00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:27,799 Speaker 1: than we'll ever know. And if we if everybody sees it, 810 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 1: I mean everybody, even me, who I'm a Max supporter. 811 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 1: I was in on having two former head coaches come 812 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 1: in and be you know, sub coaches, and that that 813 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:43,799 Speaker 1: could work. So I'm on record saying that, and now 814 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,919 Speaker 1: I'm saying I see it. I see it. I can't 815 00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 1: believe he doesn't. I can't believe he doesn't. You know, 816 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 1: the owner does. And if he wants, if he wants 817 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:57,399 Speaker 1: to stay here, he's gonna have to make changes. He's 818 00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:00,759 Speaker 1: going to have to. You know, I'll keep my I'll 819 00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:04,320 Speaker 1: keep my fingers cross, right, Yeah, okay, all right, Thanks William, 820 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 1: Thanks William, keep the faith. Patty's an agawam. What's up? 821 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:12,439 Speaker 1: Patty up? Guys? Hey Freddy, I was with you too 822 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:14,840 Speaker 1: prior to the season. I was like, I was skeptical, 823 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 1: but I was like, let's take a wait and see approach, 824 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:20,200 Speaker 1: and you know, maybe they maybe they figure it out 825 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:23,479 Speaker 1: and they get stronger as the season goes. But each 826 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 1: subsequent week week it looks like Mo Howard is coordinating 827 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:31,200 Speaker 1: in this offense, you know, and so yeah, yeah, yeah, um. 828 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:34,840 Speaker 1: But I did have a question relative to the coaching side, 829 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:37,719 Speaker 1: with the struggles that we've seen on special teams the 830 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:41,440 Speaker 1: last few years, if they do make like sweeping coaching changes, 831 00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 1: do you think that there's a chance that a chord 832 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 1: is gone and they put Joe Judge back in the 833 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:48,719 Speaker 1: spense as a special teams coordinator. I do. I think 834 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:50,680 Speaker 1: there's a chance of that. Yeah, but I could see 835 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,640 Speaker 1: a chord going somewhere, like within the coach He'll stay 836 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:57,919 Speaker 1: here and go to another position. Yeah, yeah, I see Joe. 837 00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:01,880 Speaker 1: I could see that, and I'll throw another white receiver 838 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 1: name that I would. I mean, I don't think it's 839 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:05,840 Speaker 1: going to happen. I think the chances of it happening 840 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,799 Speaker 1: is in contesmo. But I would love to see them 841 00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:14,239 Speaker 1: just mortgage mortgage the future for DeVante Smith. Get back 842 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:17,399 Speaker 1: that to me. That's Max thinky. I mean, if there 843 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:19,799 Speaker 1: ever was, if there ever would be a thinky for him, 844 00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 1: I mean, that would be the guy, you know, kidnap 845 00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:31,480 Speaker 1: them from Philadelphia. Yeah, that's all I got, guys, all right, 846 00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:34,880 Speaker 1: Thanks Patty, And I know, like I know, Patty prefaced 847 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:38,440 Speaker 1: that by saying it's infante but like arguably the best 848 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:41,120 Speaker 1: team in football, which is gonna like deal off their 849 00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 1: most significant pieces while they're on the rookie contracts, right, Like, 850 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 1: I think it's less than infantessible. I just I, you know, 851 00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:52,040 Speaker 1: I was thinking too, is like I really wonder what 852 00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:53,919 Speaker 1: it's going to be like this offseason because we're talking 853 00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 1: I think, you know aptly about receivers to target those things. 854 00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,719 Speaker 1: I just I just wonder how much of a check 855 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:04,000 Speaker 1: book and freedom Belichick will have this year depending on 856 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 1: how the conversation with Craft goes, because you know, I 857 00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:08,800 Speaker 1: think we're all a little like, well, what if he's like, no, 858 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:10,759 Speaker 1: it'll be fine, you know, and that this bill go 859 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:14,480 Speaker 1: you know, does Roberts say, well, then we'll see how 860 00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 1: much money you're actually gonna let you play with? Like 861 00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:17,839 Speaker 1: you know, what, do you know how much money are 862 00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:19,359 Speaker 1: you gonna need to play with to get this team 863 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:20,759 Speaker 1: back to where it needs to be? Oh, you mean 864 00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 1: free agents, you know, like coaching staff, because I think 865 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:25,920 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, like they opened up the purse strings. 866 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:27,759 Speaker 1: It was I gotta got my money on a team 867 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:29,960 Speaker 1: that I don't write. Are you gonna spend go spend 868 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 1: this much money again to get what like maybe like 869 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 1: maybe you get back to the seventh Sea. I mean, 870 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:37,160 Speaker 1: if they don't make the play, like like that's what 871 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:39,319 Speaker 1: you got to spend millions of dollars to get back 872 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:43,120 Speaker 1: to Robert Kraft? What would Bill have to show you 873 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 1: to convince you that they should stick with the coaching 874 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 1: staff as it is? Geez, I don't I don't know 875 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:53,200 Speaker 1: if I could. I don't know. I don't know if 876 00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:55,839 Speaker 1: I have any answer for that. Yeah, And I mean 877 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,960 Speaker 1: it's like I guess, I guess proof that it was 878 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,879 Speaker 1: the players not buy buying in and not the coaching right, 879 00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:04,719 Speaker 1: I would need that, I guess. But then it's you, 880 00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:07,319 Speaker 1: we gotta go get new players. But why didn't you 881 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:09,319 Speaker 1: coach him up? You know, why didn't you get him 882 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:11,600 Speaker 1: to buy in? Isn't that part of your job is 883 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 1: to get these players to buy in? Isn't that part 884 00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 1: of it? You know? I mean, I agree, let's talk, 885 00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:23,400 Speaker 1: let's do this, Let's let's let's know, let's like you know, 886 00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:26,239 Speaker 1: I'm watching like you know, good Morning Football, and like 887 00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:28,799 Speaker 1: they're always doing these funny kind of exercises like this, 888 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:32,480 Speaker 1: So let's let's Chris plays right, old friend, Let's play 889 00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:35,319 Speaker 1: like role you know, like role role play here? You 890 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,200 Speaker 1: know this is Bill when this is like so if 891 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:40,359 Speaker 1: your Bill can can you like you asked a question like, 892 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,520 Speaker 1: what could Bill do to show Robert that changes don't 893 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 1: need to be made? Could Bill go in and say, hey, listen, 894 00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 1: Max's gonna be fine. Max's season was completely derailed in 895 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 1: week three when he gets that high ankle sprain. He 896 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,319 Speaker 1: was never the same after that. We rushed him back. 897 00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 1: In retrospect, we probably should have sat him another couple 898 00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:00,799 Speaker 1: of weeks. He wanted to rush, he wanted to rush back. 899 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 1: We rushed him back. That was a misstep on our part. 900 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:07,600 Speaker 1: When he came back, he had the pressure from what 901 00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 1: Zappi was doing. It's snowballed. That led to a lot 902 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,640 Speaker 1: of the conflict between the coaches because the coaches felt, again, 903 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:18,120 Speaker 1: I'm trying to role play. I don't think beautiful, I 904 00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:21,520 Speaker 1: don't think I don't think this is true. Okay, but 905 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 1: I'm saying, can can he convince Robert that stay the course? Yeah? 906 00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:31,760 Speaker 1: It's working. It got derailed, but it's not irreparably damaged. 907 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:37,240 Speaker 1: The bigger issue was external factors. We're gonna keep Mac healthy. 908 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:39,759 Speaker 1: We're gonna get them completely in year two of the 909 00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:43,160 Speaker 1: Matt Patricia offense and all through the off season. We're 910 00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:45,640 Speaker 1: gonna have them sit down. They're gonna be fine. They're 911 00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:48,399 Speaker 1: gonna be They're gonna be fine working with each other. Now, 912 00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:50,760 Speaker 1: if I'm Robert, I'm very skeptical. I'm not gonna lie. 913 00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:54,840 Speaker 1: I'm not sure I'm buying it. But can Bill? Is 914 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:58,440 Speaker 1: there a percentage that Bill could go to Robert with 915 00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:02,319 Speaker 1: something along those said? It comes it comes down to 916 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:05,320 Speaker 1: what you said, Paul. He's gonna lay out the evidence 917 00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:11,439 Speaker 1: that it's the players that Trent Brown played. Well, yeah, 918 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:14,279 Speaker 1: I'm not even talking about all that, Like absolutely, you 919 00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:17,200 Speaker 1: add all that in offensive line was a mess. Isaiah 920 00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:20,319 Speaker 1: Wind bailed on the team. You know, Cole Strange needs 921 00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 1: another year. Oh he'll be fine. He just needs to 922 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:26,520 Speaker 1: get a little ball gun ye right. You know. Kendrick Bourne, 923 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:30,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you all the reasons why he wasn't playing, 924 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:34,080 Speaker 1: and we got him back on track down the stretch, right. Um, 925 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 1: you know Parker gets hurt. Uh, you know he's gonna 926 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:40,480 Speaker 1: you know all those things. Yeah, you know, and oh, 927 00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 1: by the way, I need forty million dollars and we 928 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:44,279 Speaker 1: got how many draft picks? We got like ten draft 929 00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:47,360 Speaker 1: picks or something like that. Like you know, it's like Matt, Matt, 930 00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:50,480 Speaker 1: Matty P's a smart guy. He's gonna get better. He 931 00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:52,799 Speaker 1: never did it before. You know, you can see how 932 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,360 Speaker 1: much more comfortable he was putting the game planes together 933 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,920 Speaker 1: as the season, like you, I could see that happening 934 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:03,920 Speaker 1: before anybody yelled at me, Okay, we're just playing. Yes, 935 00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:08,160 Speaker 1: I'm not like, I'm not telling you that I believe much, 936 00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:13,360 Speaker 1: if any of this. But Fred, you asked a question, 937 00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:17,640 Speaker 1: what could Bill do to convince Robert that changes don't 938 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:19,840 Speaker 1: need to be made? Right? I think I think it 939 00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:22,400 Speaker 1: would be something like that. It would be sound pretty good. 940 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:26,960 Speaker 1: You did a pretty good job. Thank you, Thank you. Hey. Um, 941 00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:30,279 Speaker 1: Let's say Bradley writes in with the Patriots he has 942 00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:33,279 Speaker 1: that in quote system. It seems we're always focused on 943 00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:35,560 Speaker 1: picking a player who can do it all, special teams, 944 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 1: multiple positions, really anything they can is the focus on 945 00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:41,319 Speaker 1: do it all type of people, affecting how Bill thinks 946 00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 1: about the coaches now as well, thinking a coach can 947 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:46,720 Speaker 1: be a jack of all trades, just like the players 948 00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:49,799 Speaker 1: and as he spreading the coaching out too thin. So 949 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:51,880 Speaker 1: we're moderately good at a lot of things, but not 950 00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 1: really great in anything. And PS one O C would 951 00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:57,480 Speaker 1: not What I would not like to have right now 952 00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 1: is Nate Hackett. The guys thinks. I love how everyone's 953 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:04,439 Speaker 1: call him that. That was good. Yes, yeah, I think 954 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:07,560 Speaker 1: Nathaniel Hackett was a good coordinator by the way for 955 00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:10,440 Speaker 1: Bay and Bay right he was. How hard is it 956 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:12,799 Speaker 1: to be a good coordinator with Aaron Rodgers? I don't know. 957 00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:15,439 Speaker 1: They don't have one. Now, they don't have a good 958 00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:18,160 Speaker 1: coordinator now, well, they can't score. I think now that 959 00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:21,279 Speaker 1: these young guys is just they're doing better, aren't they doing? 960 00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:23,480 Speaker 1: They're winning games, but they're not scoring. Yeah, they're not 961 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:27,239 Speaker 1: scoring like they old Packers were. No. Yeah, they're still inconsistent. 962 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:29,960 Speaker 1: Watson and Dobson. Yeah, and then Watson got hurt the 963 00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:34,960 Speaker 1: other day too. Yeah, he's coming on. Uh, Craig is 964 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:38,919 Speaker 1: in Charlotte. What's up, Craig? Hey, how's it going, guys? 965 00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 1: Good doing today? Pretty good? Um? Hey, I like where 966 00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:44,520 Speaker 1: you're you're at before. I guess there's been a lot 967 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:47,520 Speaker 1: of um, you know, a lot of scrutiny on Bill 968 00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:50,040 Speaker 1: rightfully so past a couple of weeks ago. I just 969 00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:53,120 Speaker 1: wanted to take now to to say, like I'm in 970 00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:56,279 Speaker 1: the opinion he should be able to write his own 971 00:46:56,440 --> 00:47:00,640 Speaker 1: check out of Foxborough. I will suffer through seasons of 972 00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:04,279 Speaker 1: misery for everything that he's given to the organization, just 973 00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 1: like I would have suffered through, you know, five nood 974 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:09,120 Speaker 1: alarm seasons of brady for everything he gave to the 975 00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:13,319 Speaker 1: season if they went that direction. Having you know, I'm 976 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,200 Speaker 1: a manager of people too, and I've lost an awful 977 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:17,840 Speaker 1: lot of folks over the past few years, so difficult 978 00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:22,480 Speaker 1: to replace talent and keep that pipeline going. I guess 979 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:27,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. My question for you is really how often, 980 00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:30,319 Speaker 1: maybe inside baseball, how often do you think Belichick and 981 00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:32,960 Speaker 1: Craft are talking about these things throughout the season? Because 982 00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:34,960 Speaker 1: we talked about this, like at the end of the year, 983 00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:36,520 Speaker 1: there's going to be this kind of come to the 984 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:39,440 Speaker 1: table meeting with them, and I got to feel like 985 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:41,400 Speaker 1: they're already in the plans, they already kind of know. 986 00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:45,839 Speaker 1: Why isn't this an ongoing convo? Yeah, Yeah, I don't 987 00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 1: know how often they It seems to me that it's 988 00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:51,960 Speaker 1: not like every week they have a sit down and 989 00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:55,600 Speaker 1: and all that. I don't know, but it doesn't seem 990 00:47:55,640 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 1: like it's a constant conversation. I agree that season check in. 991 00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:03,919 Speaker 1: I think I think there might be a time or two, 992 00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:06,840 Speaker 1: but I don't think they Robert's grilling him with specifically, 993 00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:08,560 Speaker 1: what are you planning on do you know it's week 994 00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:10,360 Speaker 1: week eleven? What are you planning on doing about this 995 00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:12,360 Speaker 1: much the script for the first series? Right? You know? 996 00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:14,400 Speaker 1: I don't I don't think. I mean, I could be wrong, 997 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 1: but I don't think that that's the case. I think 998 00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:18,480 Speaker 1: it's like you said, Freddie, I think it's after the 999 00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:20,200 Speaker 1: season they sit down and I think then I think 1000 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:23,719 Speaker 1: Robert wants, yeah, some answer, some some analysis, you know, 1001 00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:26,319 Speaker 1: like the more you need, the more you meddle as 1002 00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:29,920 Speaker 1: an owner, the less you can say, Oh, I have 1003 00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:32,920 Speaker 1: to hold him accountable, Like if you're if you're a 1004 00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:35,680 Speaker 1: big influence on the day to day operation, then how 1005 00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:38,040 Speaker 1: much you blame can you give your head coach? Yeah, 1006 00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:40,879 Speaker 1: you have to let him do his thing, especially when 1007 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:43,520 Speaker 1: he's also the GM. You have to let him do it, 1008 00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:47,319 Speaker 1: you know, but hold him accountable, right, especially at this point, 1009 00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:49,239 Speaker 1: maybe like a rookie head coach you might have to 1010 00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:53,440 Speaker 1: a little bit not Bill. Yeah, I don't think Robert's 1011 00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:56,319 Speaker 1: in there meddling, But I do feel like the way 1012 00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 1: that it seems like Bill runs his side of the organization, 1013 00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:02,520 Speaker 1: that that there would be an ongoing conversation with Craft, 1014 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:04,920 Speaker 1: especially when things aren't going well. I'll bet you, like 1015 00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:08,440 Speaker 1: during the Max thing when he got hurt, like Bill, like, 1016 00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:11,120 Speaker 1: I'll bet you the owner was probably, hey, how's he doing. 1017 00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:13,439 Speaker 1: Do you think he's got a chance to play things 1018 00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 1: like that? I'll bet you he finds out about Yeah. Yeah, 1019 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:22,560 Speaker 1: But like Paul, Paul, he started another poll, I'll be 1020 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:26,799 Speaker 1: four Belichick saying this year, I could see that pole 1021 00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:31,239 Speaker 1: moving if he's did that. All right, thanks, Yeah, that'll 1022 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:33,760 Speaker 1: be an offseason thing. You know, in a couple of weeks, 1023 00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:36,719 Speaker 1: we'll get that going. El from Wisconsin wants to talk 1024 00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:39,120 Speaker 1: about the team vibe and he wants to call me out. 1025 00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:43,440 Speaker 1: So I want to read this season Evan got me thinking, 1026 00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:45,680 Speaker 1: he says, Evan got me thinking of after saying that 1027 00:49:45,760 --> 00:49:48,400 Speaker 1: Mac is unlikable, and I think that's a problem surrounding 1028 00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:51,319 Speaker 1: this whole team. Bill isn't the most likable guy, But 1029 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:53,840 Speaker 1: it's fine when you're winning. Grading when you're losing. Maddy 1030 00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:55,920 Speaker 1: p has the air of someone who thinks they're the 1031 00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:58,040 Speaker 1: smartest guy in the room. Just ask him, and that's 1032 00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:02,239 Speaker 1: off putting. Mac is at worst a dirty player and 1033 00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:04,919 Speaker 1: at best a whiney cry baby, and not good enough 1034 00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:07,960 Speaker 1: for his antics to be anywhere near justified. Maybe I'm 1035 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:10,360 Speaker 1: reading way too much into things, but I really feel 1036 00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:13,279 Speaker 1: like there's a fisher where coaches are blaming players and 1037 00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:16,000 Speaker 1: players are blaming coaches. I think Bill has lost the 1038 00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:18,160 Speaker 1: locker room at this point. Who's to say he can 1039 00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:21,000 Speaker 1: get it back. I think it's probably time to move on. 1040 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:23,520 Speaker 1: What has Bill done in the past, say, two years, 1041 00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:26,319 Speaker 1: to make this a better team. I also have to 1042 00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:29,160 Speaker 1: call Fred out. He made a snide remark about not 1043 00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:32,040 Speaker 1: wanting Hackett because he did an awful job in Denver. 1044 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:34,960 Speaker 1: What happened to bring in a head coach because it's 1045 00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:37,799 Speaker 1: valuable experience. No matter what, I don't think he was 1046 00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:41,040 Speaker 1: any worse than Judge in New York or Patricia in Detroit. 1047 00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:43,440 Speaker 1: I just well the reason I said, I look at 1048 00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:46,560 Speaker 1: their offense and what happened with Russell Wilson, and I'm like, 1049 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:52,000 Speaker 1: what Russell Wilson was on the ganelon Daniel Jones is 1050 00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:54,960 Speaker 1: as good as Russell Wilson used to be. They're awful. 1051 00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:58,040 Speaker 1: They both looked the same, I know now they do 1052 00:50:58,719 --> 00:51:02,360 Speaker 1: now they do. No, no, no, Now, Daniel Jones is 1053 00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:05,320 Speaker 1: vastly superior now that Brian Dable was coaching him. Okay, 1054 00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:07,759 Speaker 1: But I'm just that's that's a good point. That's a 1055 00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:10,919 Speaker 1: point in my favor. I mean they were both poorly coach. 1056 00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:14,920 Speaker 1: That right, that Hackett couldn't get anything out of Russell Wilson. Correct, 1057 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:17,040 Speaker 1: That's why I don't Joe Judge couldn't get anything out 1058 00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:20,160 Speaker 1: of a guy who's right now in the playoffs. Yeah, 1059 00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:23,319 Speaker 1: but you wanted him because again the email is right. 1060 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:25,920 Speaker 1: He know he was a Patriot, so you wanted to right. 1061 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:28,239 Speaker 1: He knows the system right, and a lot of good 1062 00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:30,040 Speaker 1: that knowledge of a system. That's why I said about 1063 00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:33,480 Speaker 1: Hackett about no, I don't want Nathaniel Hackett. I mean, 1064 00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:35,480 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to make a case. I'm not trying 1065 00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:37,759 Speaker 1: to make a case for him, Nate Hacketting. I also 1066 00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:40,000 Speaker 1: didn't want Joe Judge. You know, the fact that he 1067 00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:42,000 Speaker 1: was a failed head coach. That's not a point in 1068 00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:44,560 Speaker 1: his favor. It was a point in yours and the 1069 00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:46,719 Speaker 1: guys just pointing out you're in concerned. I do think 1070 00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:49,760 Speaker 1: there's something to be said about that experience in the NFL. 1071 00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:52,160 Speaker 1: I do if as long as he was a Patriot, 1072 00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:56,080 Speaker 1: no any any any, but you don't want other films specifically, 1073 00:51:56,080 --> 00:51:59,160 Speaker 1: we're asking him to be an oc here where his 1074 00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:03,800 Speaker 1: offense stuff right, and you're asking this got to be 1075 00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:07,120 Speaker 1: a quarterbacks coaching his quarterback stunk like it's the same thing. 1076 00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:12,080 Speaker 1: The guy's point is that is vallet screw you. You 1077 00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:17,120 Speaker 1: yelled at me yesterday. So sorry, it's fine, fine, uh 1078 00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:20,520 Speaker 1: jacket and aba. If the Patriots had played as well 1079 00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:22,880 Speaker 1: in the first half as they did in the second half, 1080 00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:25,560 Speaker 1: they would have beaten the Bengals. Why didn't the Patriots 1081 00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:27,440 Speaker 1: play as well in the first half as they did 1082 00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 1: in the second half? They made a few throws. People 1083 00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:38,799 Speaker 1: really ask these questions. They just read it like, but 1084 00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:42,200 Speaker 1: it's not like with meant with any like no tongue 1085 00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:45,359 Speaker 1: in chiefs, smiley face or anything like that. So like 1086 00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:47,360 Speaker 1: you can't just answer if the Bengals had played like 1087 00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:49,799 Speaker 1: they did in the second first half, in the second half, 1088 00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:53,280 Speaker 1: they would have won. You know, forty four to nothing. Yeah, okay, 1089 00:52:53,560 --> 00:52:57,000 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow still got ac Player of the Week, did 1090 00:52:57,080 --> 00:53:01,440 Speaker 1: he again? It's it's a remarkable thing. And I'm not 1091 00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:04,120 Speaker 1: a Lias, so I can't, like, I don't have a 1092 00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:07,280 Speaker 1: website in a like a like a search engine database 1093 00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:09,759 Speaker 1: that I can plug in all these factors. But I'm 1094 00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:11,920 Speaker 1: going to venture to guess that teams that turn the 1095 00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:14,719 Speaker 1: ball over three times, including one for a touchdown, miss 1096 00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:17,000 Speaker 1: a field goal, two extra points, allow a forty eight 1097 00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:19,279 Speaker 1: yard hail mary on third and twenty nine, or like 1098 00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:23,240 Speaker 1: windless winless in the history of the NFL. They still 1099 00:53:23,239 --> 00:53:26,160 Speaker 1: won doing all those things. That's how much better they 1100 00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:30,719 Speaker 1: were than you. Christian the Cuban from Charlotte, North Carolina. 1101 00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:34,760 Speaker 1: Two things. First, there have been reports that Bill O'Brien 1102 00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:37,640 Speaker 1: is a done deal coming to the Patriots next season. 1103 00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:40,279 Speaker 1: Who said that I did not see done deal. I 1104 00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:43,480 Speaker 1: think Tom Corrn, I don't. I didn't see done deal 1105 00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:47,480 Speaker 1: Tom Currn on EI yesterday I read some quotes on 1106 00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:50,080 Speaker 1: the Twitter machine that he had said he had talked 1107 00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:52,640 Speaker 1: to somebody and someone said he'd be very surprised if 1108 00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:55,800 Speaker 1: it didn't. Okay. Then there have also been reports that 1109 00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:59,120 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson in New Jersey Jets will part ways next season. 1110 00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:01,560 Speaker 1: What do you think if Ay one for one, swap 1111 00:54:01,640 --> 00:54:04,200 Speaker 1: Mac for Wilson and we have a new OC with Bill. 1112 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:07,200 Speaker 1: In my defense, I would rather have Mac and see 1113 00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:10,480 Speaker 1: him with weapons in a realc But just a topic 1114 00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:13,960 Speaker 1: to discuss. Second, I think if Belichick has another stinker 1115 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,920 Speaker 1: of a season and O'Brien is the OC and not 1116 00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:19,759 Speaker 1: coaching somewhere else, I think we replaced Bill with Bill. 1117 00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:23,000 Speaker 1: If they have a stinker of a season, why do 1118 00:54:23,040 --> 00:54:29,879 Speaker 1: you want O'Brien right, because he'd be part of this? Yeah, yeah, 1119 00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:32,360 Speaker 1: I mean there's so many I think there are a 1120 00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:33,840 Speaker 1: lot of different factors. What do you think of the 1121 00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:36,359 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson thing? Not necessarily for the pages, that's kind 1122 00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:38,160 Speaker 1: of gotten a little bit of traction this week. It 1123 00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:40,880 Speaker 1: looks like he's played his last game for the Jets. 1124 00:54:42,200 --> 00:54:44,279 Speaker 1: It's tough, it's a tough He'll get another chance, He'll 1125 00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:46,200 Speaker 1: get another chance. I think it's just tough to try 1126 00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:49,480 Speaker 1: to say he's a backup quarterback because he's so sporadic 1127 00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:51,680 Speaker 1: and will kill you. You know, it's like much rather 1128 00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:54,160 Speaker 1: like Teddy Bridgewater is what he is. But I don't 1129 00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:55,520 Speaker 1: feel like he's going to all of a sudden and 1130 00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:57,600 Speaker 1: try to like just make the dumbest throw ever and 1131 00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:00,239 Speaker 1: cost you the game. Like so maybe some team thinks 1132 00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:01,960 Speaker 1: they can fix him, but I think he was always 1133 00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:03,880 Speaker 1: kind of a boomer bus kind of as he was 1134 00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:06,319 Speaker 1: as a team was looking at him, how do you 1135 00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:13,160 Speaker 1: get a accurate, you know, read on his mental awareness 1136 00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:15,720 Speaker 1: of the game and football IQ and you know about 1137 00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:18,600 Speaker 1: because yes, he can throw the ball, yeah he can 1138 00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:22,440 Speaker 1: run around, but like how do you get enough information 1139 00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:26,200 Speaker 1: from the a mental part of it to make a judgment? Yeah, 1140 00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:28,360 Speaker 1: we'll bring him in, Like that's so high. And I 1141 00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:32,480 Speaker 1: made the comment earlier in the week, Um, you know, 1142 00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:34,239 Speaker 1: he's the second overall pick, so he's going to get 1143 00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:36,480 Speaker 1: another shot. But like, you know, Josh Rosen was the 1144 00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:39,840 Speaker 1: tenth pick I think or something like that, and he 1145 00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:41,920 Speaker 1: got to play as a rookie. And there were a 1146 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:45,680 Speaker 1: lot of questions about Josh Rosen coming in that were 1147 00:55:45,680 --> 00:55:47,960 Speaker 1: similar to the ones about Zach Wilson. Why isn't he 1148 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:50,920 Speaker 1: a captain? Do his teammates really like him? Does he 1149 00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:54,000 Speaker 1: command the room? Does he you know, get respect? His 1150 00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:57,800 Speaker 1: neck is too long? Who were talking about Josh Rosen 1151 00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:02,120 Speaker 1: and a big Adam's apple can't have that. I couldn't 1152 00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:04,319 Speaker 1: if Josh Rosen was in this room, I wouldn't be able. 1153 00:56:04,320 --> 00:56:08,560 Speaker 1: I couldn't tell you what I did. I like, why 1154 00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:11,600 Speaker 1: why didn't we start talking about Peyton Manning naff Um? 1155 00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:14,120 Speaker 1: But I you know when you looked at Josh Rosen 1156 00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:17,279 Speaker 1: and he really never got another shot. He played some 1157 00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:21,080 Speaker 1: games for Miami that first year that Flores was there, 1158 00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:24,480 Speaker 1: and he's been on like sixteen other like practice squads. Right, 1159 00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:29,960 Speaker 1: No one's really brought him in since then and said, 1160 00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:32,120 Speaker 1: you know, you're gonna be our starter or competing for 1161 00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:34,320 Speaker 1: a starter, and basically the league gave up on it. 1162 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:37,520 Speaker 1: So I want to say, Zach Wilson will get another shot. Yeah, 1163 00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:40,239 Speaker 1: but maybe he won't, right because maybe it's been that 1164 00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:42,879 Speaker 1: big of a disaster and with the stuff that you're 1165 00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:45,920 Speaker 1: talking about, like the mental makeup, Right, does he have 1166 00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:48,799 Speaker 1: what it takes to be an NFL quarterback? Not physically, 1167 00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:52,799 Speaker 1: emotionally and mentally. Think about who was the guy that 1168 00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:55,200 Speaker 1: broke down in front of his locker years ago? He's 1169 00:56:55,239 --> 00:57:00,960 Speaker 1: now he's an analyst. Um Derek the other quarterback who 1170 00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:06,600 Speaker 1: was highly touted. I think he was ran Leaf, Ryan Leaf. Yeah, 1171 00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:10,439 Speaker 1: you know, like the league gave up on him, right, Yeah, 1172 00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:12,440 Speaker 1: I mean I think he gave up on himself. There 1173 00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:14,640 Speaker 1: were Yeah, there were other issues with Ryan Come. I 1174 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:16,640 Speaker 1: think he's turned his life around, Yeah, but you I mean, 1175 00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:18,840 Speaker 1: he spent some time in prison, you know, had drug 1176 00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:21,640 Speaker 1: problems a lot. There's a lot going on that I 1177 00:57:21,640 --> 00:57:25,600 Speaker 1: don't think is necessarily Jermaine to Josh Rosen and Zach 1178 00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:29,640 Speaker 1: Wilson want from Mexico. If Bill waited for O'Brien this year, 1179 00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:32,320 Speaker 1: and that is why, that's the reason he went with 1180 00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:35,360 Speaker 1: this crazy experiment with Maddy P. For me, it's just 1181 00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:38,280 Speaker 1: making the decision even more stupid. You were waiting for 1182 00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:40,680 Speaker 1: the coordinator to come, but you did not add more 1183 00:57:40,720 --> 00:57:44,400 Speaker 1: coaches around to bring as much help for Maddy P. Instead, 1184 00:57:44,440 --> 00:57:47,160 Speaker 1: you screwed with the development not only from MAC but 1185 00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:50,200 Speaker 1: also the few standing players from last year. What do 1186 00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:53,440 Speaker 1: you guys think? I mean, maybe Bill just didn't think 1187 00:57:53,440 --> 00:57:55,360 Speaker 1: it was going to be this bad, you know, Yeah, 1188 00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:57,160 Speaker 1: I'm sure he did. But if he did it for 1189 00:57:57,200 --> 00:57:59,640 Speaker 1: that reason, I think it's worse. Yeah, Like I'm just 1190 00:57:59,680 --> 00:58:02,720 Speaker 1: gonna a placeholder. I really don't like I could burn 1191 00:58:02,760 --> 00:58:05,440 Speaker 1: a season at seven, right, right, Well, I didn't think 1192 00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:14,680 Speaker 1: you'd think it was burning anyway. Evan's here and has done, 1193 00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:24,920 Speaker 1: has done all right, Evan, what do we got? Not 1194 00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:28,800 Speaker 1: great news? Oh jeezus, Oh not great news. He's the 1195 00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:32,880 Speaker 1: opposite of back dad Bob So out of Patriots practice 1196 00:58:32,920 --> 00:58:36,760 Speaker 1: today inside Gillette Stadium. Little change up for you. There 1197 00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:43,360 Speaker 1: No DeVante Parker, Jalen Mills, Jack Jones, Johnny Smith, Yanni 1198 00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:47,919 Speaker 1: could just and the biggest one Marcus Jones not out 1199 00:58:47,960 --> 00:58:53,760 Speaker 1: at Patriots practice on a Wednesday. Now, wait, he plays this. 1200 00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:56,480 Speaker 1: This is two thousand This is two thousand and four 1201 00:58:56,760 --> 00:58:59,320 Speaker 1: against the Rams, Like, how did we do it? How 1202 00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:03,920 Speaker 1: did we win that game? With Troy Brown, Pea Patrick 1203 00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:09,800 Speaker 1: and of Vinetary throwing a touchdown? I will say this, okay, 1204 00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:14,160 Speaker 1: if I'm just trying to be a little positive here, Okay, 1205 00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:17,760 Speaker 1: we all spoke to Marcus Jones after the game on Sunday. 1206 00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:22,479 Speaker 1: There was no inclination whatsoever that he was injured. So 1207 00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:24,919 Speaker 1: maybe it's an illness. You know, it is that time 1208 00:59:24,920 --> 00:59:27,840 Speaker 1: of year, right. I don't want to speculate anything, but 1209 00:59:27,960 --> 00:59:31,280 Speaker 1: I just don't think that this was some major injury 1210 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:34,240 Speaker 1: that got that went unnoticed in post game, and he 1211 00:59:34,520 --> 00:59:36,360 Speaker 1: went to the podium and did all you know, did 1212 00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:39,040 Speaker 1: all these availability and then all of a sudden, now 1213 00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:42,320 Speaker 1: he's had has some severe injury that he that popped 1214 00:59:42,360 --> 00:59:45,040 Speaker 1: up out of nowhere. Okay, now, And it was a 1215 00:59:45,080 --> 00:59:47,960 Speaker 1: regular practice, Like I mean, I'm sorry, I don't need 1216 00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:51,440 Speaker 1: to step on I don't want I don't need to 1217 00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:53,320 Speaker 1: play the hits as long as we get the infant. 1218 00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:56,400 Speaker 1: But like I mean, you know, Pad's e practice. I know, 1219 00:59:56,520 --> 00:59:58,560 Speaker 1: like maybe they might be out of pat you know whatever. 1220 00:59:58,640 --> 01:00:00,480 Speaker 1: But like so it was a regular practice and all 1221 01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:02,560 Speaker 1: those guys weren't there, so it's current like it was 1222 01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:06,560 Speaker 1: like some kind of walkthrough that maybe they Okay, that's yeah. 1223 01:00:06,960 --> 01:00:11,400 Speaker 1: Actually PATTED practice not great out there today, which is 1224 01:00:11,440 --> 01:00:14,560 Speaker 1: pretty standard for Wednesdays. Yeah, I would say this is 1225 01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:17,200 Speaker 1: our first real Wednesday in a long time. Yea, yeah, Wednesday, 1226 01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:19,920 Speaker 1: that's actually Wednesday. Yeah. In the stadium, it sounded like 1227 01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:24,720 Speaker 1: there was some some unavailability with the practice fields for 1228 01:00:24,880 --> 01:00:28,280 Speaker 1: whatever reason. Belichick was asked about it by mic Reas. 1229 01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:32,280 Speaker 1: He didn't want to get into the details, didn't want 1230 01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:34,440 Speaker 1: to get into the deeds, but for some reason, the 1231 01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:37,480 Speaker 1: practice fields weren't av Yeah, if they're not available because you're, like, 1232 01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:40,919 Speaker 1: you know, recovering from the frost or something. Why can't 1233 01:00:40,920 --> 01:00:46,280 Speaker 1: he just say that want to get into it anyway, 1234 01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:51,160 Speaker 1: Lots of guys, lots of key guys not at practice. Correct. Yeah, 1235 01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:54,240 Speaker 1: the good news was said, could just man, he just 1236 01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:58,160 Speaker 1: cannot ever be healthy? Like yeah, yeah. The good news 1237 01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:01,440 Speaker 1: is is that although Johnny Smith wasn't there, Hunter Henry 1238 01:01:01,680 --> 01:01:06,120 Speaker 1: was there and was participating, so they hopefully will at 1239 01:01:06,200 --> 01:01:10,360 Speaker 1: least have a tight end that's not um Matt Sokol 1240 01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:16,360 Speaker 1: because which is also bizarre because he was on the 1241 01:01:16,440 --> 01:01:18,640 Speaker 1: field for the last play of the game and then 1242 01:01:19,040 --> 01:01:21,680 Speaker 1: goes on injured reserves. Someone said he got hurt on 1243 01:01:21,680 --> 01:01:23,000 Speaker 1: the last play of the game. I don't know if 1244 01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:24,800 Speaker 1: I just they liked him so much, they just want 1245 01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:26,280 Speaker 1: to shut him down, make sure they keep him for 1246 01:01:26,320 --> 01:01:28,360 Speaker 1: next year. So, Fred, you want to ask him about 1247 01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:32,720 Speaker 1: the mood? Yeah, how was the mood? The food for 1248 01:01:32,760 --> 01:01:37,120 Speaker 1: the team doesn't change. Yeah, I know everybody wants him 1249 01:01:37,160 --> 01:01:41,680 Speaker 1: to come in, but I know, I know the people 1250 01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:44,080 Speaker 1: that the outside the building want to make up this 1251 01:01:44,200 --> 01:01:46,560 Speaker 1: narrative that the team has given up and that you know, 1252 01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:48,760 Speaker 1: they've let go the rope and all that kind of stuff. 1253 01:01:48,760 --> 01:01:53,880 Speaker 1: The opposite the team here has it's practice right Like 1254 01:01:53,880 --> 01:01:56,760 Speaker 1: they're out of practice, They're doing their thing. It's it's normal. 1255 01:01:57,120 --> 01:01:59,439 Speaker 1: You would never know that this team was coming off 1256 01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:03,200 Speaker 1: of two losses and one kind of humiliating loss and 1257 01:02:03,320 --> 01:02:05,720 Speaker 1: the loss last like, you wouldn't know that just by 1258 01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:07,880 Speaker 1: the vibe of the team. Okay, I've heard a lot 1259 01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:12,160 Speaker 1: of they showed their toughness and their grits. I think 1260 01:02:12,200 --> 01:02:14,280 Speaker 1: you're getting a lot of that from people that are 1261 01:02:14,280 --> 01:02:17,280 Speaker 1: covering the team. Yes, But what I'm more talking about 1262 01:02:17,400 --> 01:02:20,600 Speaker 1: is the talking heads that want to strum up controversy. 1263 01:02:20,720 --> 01:02:22,240 Speaker 1: So I'm going to be a talking head that wants 1264 01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:25,240 Speaker 1: to strum up controversy. Okay. And I was waiting to 1265 01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:27,560 Speaker 1: get the practice update because I wanted to see if 1266 01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:30,840 Speaker 1: one individual was out there and he was no Boy 1267 01:02:31,120 --> 01:02:34,680 Speaker 1: Hunter Henry Yea who immediately after the game, I think 1268 01:02:34,720 --> 01:02:37,560 Speaker 1: Ian Rappaport or within twenty four I was tweeted out 1269 01:02:37,600 --> 01:02:39,640 Speaker 1: that he's got a knee injury. He's day to day. 1270 01:02:40,200 --> 01:02:42,000 Speaker 1: He got hurt like in the first third down of 1271 01:02:42,040 --> 01:02:44,240 Speaker 1: the game, right for a knee injury that's day to day. 1272 01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:50,520 Speaker 1: Didn't return anything there. Yeah, I don't know. Like John 1273 01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:54,000 Speaker 1: Smith got lit up right, he's in concussion protocol. I 1274 01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:56,920 Speaker 1: don't think anybody's questioning his willingness to get back in 1275 01:02:56,960 --> 01:02:59,560 Speaker 1: the field. And these are always dangerous And I say 1276 01:02:59,600 --> 01:03:02,840 Speaker 1: this all the time, and I'm being unfair. Granted, I 1277 01:03:02,880 --> 01:03:04,960 Speaker 1: know I'm being unfair, so you can make fun of 1278 01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:08,840 Speaker 1: me for being unfair. I think missing a month with 1279 01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:13,160 Speaker 1: a groin, missing a month with a thigh, and you know, 1280 01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:14,640 Speaker 1: not being able to get back in the game with 1281 01:03:14,760 --> 01:03:16,720 Speaker 1: something that you were back for the very next practice, 1282 01:03:17,840 --> 01:03:21,720 Speaker 1: those are questionable to me. Yeah, those are questionable to me. Yeah. 1283 01:03:21,960 --> 01:03:23,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm ready to go there on 1284 01:03:23,200 --> 01:03:26,400 Speaker 1: Hunter Henry yet, but I think radar up on what's 1285 01:03:26,400 --> 01:03:29,360 Speaker 1: going on with Damien Harrison, you know, is this is 1286 01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:31,400 Speaker 1: this really something that's lingering or is he shutting? I 1287 01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:33,880 Speaker 1: mean and Mills, those guys they just haven't been around. 1288 01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:35,680 Speaker 1: But I don't know. Yeah, Mills hasn't been out there. 1289 01:03:35,840 --> 01:03:41,040 Speaker 1: Damien Harris has been practicing and not playing, which if 1290 01:03:41,040 --> 01:03:43,160 Speaker 1: you're going to point to anybody, and on my pointing, 1291 01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:46,480 Speaker 1: I hate pointing fingers, but me too. With Damien Harris, 1292 01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:48,680 Speaker 1: he is in a contract year he is about to 1293 01:03:48,720 --> 01:03:52,240 Speaker 1: hit free agency, and for him is playing at at 1294 01:03:52,480 --> 01:03:55,360 Speaker 1: sixty percent when he's not going to be himself? Is 1295 01:03:55,400 --> 01:03:58,480 Speaker 1: that worth it? Hunter? Henry is under contract, so I 1296 01:03:58,560 --> 01:03:59,960 Speaker 1: kind of look at that one a little bit different. 1297 01:04:00,360 --> 01:04:04,000 Speaker 1: But we'll see, yeah, yeah, hopefully we can go. Yeah. 1298 01:04:04,040 --> 01:04:06,840 Speaker 1: And when I when I bring it up, and again, 1299 01:04:07,720 --> 01:04:09,960 Speaker 1: Evan's right, like, it's hard to question a guy when 1300 01:04:09,960 --> 01:04:12,320 Speaker 1: you have no information and you're just sort of wild. 1301 01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:15,400 Speaker 1: This is felgren Mas at its worst, right. Um, So 1302 01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:18,440 Speaker 1: I'll admit that I'm being unfair. But I do wonder 1303 01:04:18,480 --> 01:04:20,600 Speaker 1: if maybe some of the veteran guys, and I think 1304 01:04:20,840 --> 01:04:22,880 Speaker 1: Henry would qualify as the guy who's been around the 1305 01:04:22,920 --> 01:04:26,320 Speaker 1: league five, six, seven years now, Like, does he look 1306 01:04:26,360 --> 01:04:28,360 Speaker 1: at it and say this team isn't going anywhere? I 1307 01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:29,960 Speaker 1: did hurt. I mean I'm not saying he invented a 1308 01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:32,600 Speaker 1: knee in journy. I mean I hurt my knee. Do 1309 01:04:32,720 --> 01:04:34,000 Speaker 1: I want to go out there and play on a 1310 01:04:34,120 --> 01:04:37,320 Speaker 1: on a bum knee and then over the last you know, 1311 01:04:37,720 --> 01:04:39,640 Speaker 1: who knows, maybe I take another hit on the knee 1312 01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:41,760 Speaker 1: and then I'm out and then I have surgery and 1313 01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:44,400 Speaker 1: it goes my off season for for what to what end? 1314 01:04:44,680 --> 01:04:47,520 Speaker 1: We're not going anywhere. That's what I wonder about with 1315 01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:52,000 Speaker 1: with veteran kind of mentality. Grossly unfair. I just but 1316 01:04:52,480 --> 01:04:55,640 Speaker 1: it has happened in the past with players. Um, you 1317 01:04:55,680 --> 01:04:58,000 Speaker 1: see Kendrick Borne out there. I did what was his 1318 01:04:58,400 --> 01:05:02,560 Speaker 1: mood depressed? Was he bouncing around? Always? Yeah? Typically, always 1319 01:05:02,560 --> 01:05:05,520 Speaker 1: bouncing around, typical kV. Yeah, he's carrying a trade me 1320 01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:07,360 Speaker 1: sign around with him and he was going in and 1321 01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:10,480 Speaker 1: out of drills. Yeah, he was bouncing around, he was 1322 01:05:10,640 --> 01:05:14,280 Speaker 1: he was looking like himself. I believe it was Lynn 1323 01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:18,920 Speaker 1: Bowden who was sporting a seventeen scout team Jersey, so 1324 01:05:18,960 --> 01:05:22,320 Speaker 1: he's Jalen Waddle this week. We didn't see an eleven 1325 01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:25,520 Speaker 1: for for Tyree because I don't know who that's going 1326 01:05:25,560 --> 01:05:28,120 Speaker 1: to be. But yeah, we did see Lynn Bowden in 1327 01:05:28,120 --> 01:05:31,680 Speaker 1: in the seventeen practice Jersey and he limped from Mac. No, no, 1328 01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:35,320 Speaker 1: limp no limb No. Did you see a ten? Yeah, 1329 01:05:35,360 --> 01:05:38,560 Speaker 1: because that's uh Tyreek ten. I said eleven, Yeah, I 1330 01:05:38,840 --> 01:05:42,360 Speaker 1: meant ten. Yeah, Yeah, I just just mac Mac was 1331 01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:44,640 Speaker 1: the only ten.

I wish 1490 01:14:52,479 --> 01:14:54,800 Speaker 1: that I had any kind of like emotional reaction to 1491 01:14:54,800 --> 01:14:57,800 Speaker 1: Tom Brady winning. He's amazing, he is playing. He outstanding 1492 01:14:57,960 --> 01:15:00,320 Speaker 1: the way I could tell from the second he took 1493 01:15:00,320 --> 01:15:02,439 Speaker 1: the field, how calm he looked. I've seen him in 1494 01:15:02,520 --> 01:15:04,519 Speaker 1: game and we've seen him in playoff games where you're like, 1495 01:15:04,720 --> 01:15:06,479 Speaker 1: what's going on? Why are we so shaky here at 1496 01:15:06,479 --> 01:15:08,720 Speaker 1: the beginning? You know, actually early, yeah, he did not 1497 01:15:08,800 --> 01:15:10,720 Speaker 1: look like that at all. He came right out, he 1498 01:15:10,800 --> 01:15:13,240 Speaker 1: was nails. You know. He definitely did not play great 1499 01:15:13,280 --> 01:15:15,120 Speaker 1: in the second half, which were you know, most people 1500 01:15:15,120 --> 01:15:17,559 Speaker 1: are seeming to ignore. But I wish I felt it. 1501 01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:20,720 Speaker 1: I wish I felt great about it. I wish I did. 1502 01:15:20,840 --> 01:15:23,000 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't feel anything. And in the moment, 1503 01:15:23,200 --> 01:15:25,479 Speaker 1: the only reason I found myself rudy for Green Bay 1504 01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:27,160 Speaker 1: is because I didn't want to hear all these people 1505 01:15:27,160 --> 01:15:33,080 Speaker 1: going and being like, see amazing. See everybody everybody does it. 1506 01:15:33,240 --> 01:15:36,559 Speaker 1: That's fine. Everybody fears the black police. You're telling you everybody, 1507 01:15:36,600 --> 01:15:38,320 Speaker 1: and that's all it is. And it's like and and 1508 01:15:38,439 --> 01:15:40,160 Speaker 1: if you guys are out there and people are like, man, 1509 01:15:40,240 --> 01:15:41,880 Speaker 1: I just I feel like I feel it in my 1510 01:15:41,920 --> 01:15:44,920 Speaker 1: heart when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers won that NFC championship, 1511 01:15:45,000 --> 01:15:47,559 Speaker 1: Like I was there with him and I felt nothing. 1512 01:15:47,640 --> 01:15:50,360 Speaker 1: I didn't feel a single out anything. Freddy was running 1513 01:15:50,360 --> 01:15:55,920 Speaker 1: around naked. That's another great moment from all right back 1514 01:15:56,000 --> 01:15:59,040 Speaker 1: here and Patriots Unfiltered five five past five hundred is 1515 01:15:59,040 --> 01:16:04,960 Speaker 1: the a ticket outline web radio. Everyone's while he just 1516 01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:06,840 Speaker 1: has to let it out, like you know, I just 1517 01:16:07,160 --> 01:16:10,320 Speaker 1: I always like when there's those examples of I just 1518 01:16:10,400 --> 01:16:14,639 Speaker 1: didn't want to listen to the like I'm the only 1519 01:16:14,680 --> 01:16:17,240 Speaker 1: one who does that. Okay, I'm glad I've come around 1520 01:16:17,240 --> 01:16:19,280 Speaker 1: on Tom though, Like I feel like I can appreciate 1521 01:16:19,320 --> 01:16:21,920 Speaker 1: it now. I don't have to, now that he's actually 1522 01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:24,960 Speaker 1: an immortal. Now that he sucks, I love him. Now 1523 01:16:24,960 --> 01:16:27,519 Speaker 1: that he doesn't play well anymore. Now I'm gonna what 1524 01:16:27,560 --> 01:16:29,680 Speaker 1: are you gonna do when he comes back, I'll just 1525 01:16:29,760 --> 01:16:34,479 Speaker 1: kiss his ass. Hope he forgets. Uh, let's see Burton, 1526 01:16:34,560 --> 01:16:37,439 Speaker 1: Burton Island. Uh, he says. I get a little tired 1527 01:16:37,439 --> 01:16:40,439 Speaker 1: of fans giving ultimatums and saying they've had it with 1528 01:16:40,560 --> 01:16:43,559 Speaker 1: this team, especially people from elsewhere in the country like 1529 01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:50,679 Speaker 1: William and Philam. If you have no ties to this area, 1530 01:16:50,840 --> 01:16:53,640 Speaker 1: you're just a bandwagon jumper anyway, No different than all 1531 01:16:53,640 --> 01:16:56,080 Speaker 1: the Steeler and Cowboy fans. We all grew up here 1532 01:16:56,840 --> 01:17:00,120 Speaker 1: within in New England. On the flip side, it's it's 1533 01:17:00,200 --> 01:17:02,920 Speaker 1: nice to hear a real fan Chester is back. Also, 1534 01:17:03,000 --> 01:17:05,360 Speaker 1: you guys should have asked mister Lyff if he could 1535 01:17:05,400 --> 01:17:07,800 Speaker 1: write you a new rap. Yeah, that would be good. 1536 01:17:07,800 --> 01:17:09,559 Speaker 1: Now we like Matts was gonna say, you got me 1537 01:17:09,560 --> 01:17:12,519 Speaker 1: for that. Yeah, So it's okay in Portland, it's okay. 1538 01:17:12,560 --> 01:17:15,760 Speaker 1: It's okay to not be from here if you're positive. 1539 01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:18,960 Speaker 1: But if you're not from here right then you're just 1540 01:17:18,960 --> 01:17:24,479 Speaker 1: getting It's okay if you're again, we love all our 1541 01:17:24,520 --> 01:17:27,640 Speaker 1: callers we do. It goes to your don't be embarrassed 1542 01:17:27,640 --> 01:17:29,680 Speaker 1: as a fan, right you're embarrassed that part like I 1543 01:17:29,720 --> 01:17:35,040 Speaker 1: cannot you're upset, you're frustrated, But when you personally are embarrassed. Why, Like, 1544 01:17:35,320 --> 01:17:39,599 Speaker 1: when are you most embarrassed? When you count Super Bowl titles? Right? 1545 01:17:40,040 --> 01:17:42,840 Speaker 1: Super Bowl appearance? Right? Right? I just I can't wear 1546 01:17:42,920 --> 01:17:45,519 Speaker 1: my Mac Jones jersey to the grocery store without getting 1547 01:17:45,560 --> 01:17:47,679 Speaker 1: yelled at. Yeah, well you shouldn't be doing that anywhere, 1548 01:17:47,720 --> 01:17:53,880 Speaker 1: according to Meg. Yeah, I just don't understand the embarrassment part. 1549 01:17:54,040 --> 01:17:56,320 Speaker 1: It's it's a pro sports team that you're root for. 1550 01:17:56,760 --> 01:17:58,880 Speaker 1: You want your team to win, right, do well if 1551 01:17:58,920 --> 01:18:02,320 Speaker 1: they don't, you could be sad frustrated when you're actually 1552 01:18:02,360 --> 01:18:04,760 Speaker 1: in the moment, when you're like seventeen and ruins your week, 1553 01:18:04,880 --> 01:18:06,439 Speaker 1: you know, when you're growing up? I think though, like 1554 01:18:06,520 --> 01:18:09,280 Speaker 1: two though, like for a large portion of people, who 1555 01:18:09,320 --> 01:18:12,920 Speaker 1: you root for on social media is like your entire identity, right, 1556 01:18:13,280 --> 01:18:15,559 Speaker 1: you know, like back in the day, like you just 1557 01:18:16,080 --> 01:18:18,600 Speaker 1: I like this team and you're not social media, you 1558 01:18:18,600 --> 01:18:20,120 Speaker 1: didn't have to tell anybody. You might not even have 1559 01:18:20,200 --> 01:18:22,360 Speaker 1: the jersey. Like I grew up, I love the Seahawks. 1560 01:18:22,360 --> 01:18:24,120 Speaker 1: I don't know why. I grown up like large and 1561 01:18:24,200 --> 01:18:26,880 Speaker 1: grown up, but I never like felt, you know, like 1562 01:18:26,920 --> 01:18:28,640 Speaker 1: a fan like that. You know, I was embarrassed. I 1563 01:18:28,640 --> 01:18:30,960 Speaker 1: don't know which just started. You got to ruin my 1564 01:18:31,000 --> 01:18:35,960 Speaker 1: life like it used to. Like, yeah, probably the last 1565 01:18:36,000 --> 01:18:39,439 Speaker 1: time I was like truly despondent over a loss was 1566 01:18:39,760 --> 01:18:43,519 Speaker 1: one Blitzer when they lost the Super Bowl to Green Bay. Yeah, 1567 01:18:44,040 --> 01:18:47,200 Speaker 1: you know, and even then it wasn't I mean I was, 1568 01:18:47,360 --> 01:18:50,280 Speaker 1: I was an adult, Like even then, it wasn't the same. Yeah, 1569 01:18:50,360 --> 01:18:53,120 Speaker 1: like that, even the Chicago one, Like I convinced myself 1570 01:18:53,120 --> 01:18:54,759 Speaker 1: that we could bury the Bears and all that stuff, 1571 01:18:54,760 --> 01:18:56,240 Speaker 1: but you know, as soon as the game started, you 1572 01:18:56,320 --> 01:18:58,720 Speaker 1: knew they weren't burying the Bears, right, three, I mean 1573 01:18:59,439 --> 01:19:02,280 Speaker 1: I had three I was to prepare myself for the inevitable. Yeah, 1574 01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:06,960 Speaker 1: like I you know, I was. I was in a 1575 01:19:07,040 --> 01:19:10,600 Speaker 1: real bad place after Row seven. But I wasn't embarrassed. 1576 01:19:11,160 --> 01:19:13,880 Speaker 1: I was just depressed. I was, you know, that was 1577 01:19:15,280 --> 01:19:19,200 Speaker 1: that was a depressing like trip home to Freddy's Point, Like, 1578 01:19:19,280 --> 01:19:21,400 Speaker 1: oh God, every way you looked, you just saw like 1579 01:19:22,320 --> 01:19:25,519 Speaker 1: oh no one smiled Like it was that awful. It 1580 01:19:25,560 --> 01:19:28,599 Speaker 1: was awful, you know. I mean I told the story before. 1581 01:19:28,600 --> 01:19:31,200 Speaker 1: We had a party a bunch of people. The game ended, 1582 01:19:31,240 --> 01:19:34,680 Speaker 1: I just like ceremoniously popped my two Patriots balloons that 1583 01:19:34,720 --> 01:19:37,080 Speaker 1: I had hanging from my TV and just retreated to 1584 01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:40,040 Speaker 1: my quarters. It's like you won the lottery and you 1585 01:19:40,160 --> 01:19:42,880 Speaker 1: lost the ticket, like you knew you won, and then 1586 01:19:42,960 --> 01:19:44,960 Speaker 1: on the way there you lost the ticket. You don't 1587 01:19:44,960 --> 01:19:47,200 Speaker 1: have to talk about it. It's okay. Yeah, it's as 1588 01:19:47,200 --> 01:19:49,439 Speaker 1: bad as it can possibly get. Like there's no way 1589 01:19:49,439 --> 01:19:51,320 Speaker 1: it worse. A loss could be worse. I mean, that's it, 1590 01:19:51,800 --> 01:19:55,479 Speaker 1: um Ron and Cambridge. Ever since Brady left, Deuce has 1591 01:19:55,479 --> 01:19:57,840 Speaker 1: said something to the effect of I'm interested to see 1592 01:19:57,840 --> 01:19:59,640 Speaker 1: what the greatest head coach of all time does to 1593 01:19:59,680 --> 01:20:02,439 Speaker 1: build this team now that Brady's gone. And I can't 1594 01:20:02,439 --> 01:20:05,280 Speaker 1: help but think that the Patriot existence post Brady has 1595 01:20:05,320 --> 01:20:08,200 Speaker 1: been the furthest thing from interesting. I missed the old 1596 01:20:08,280 --> 01:20:11,200 Speaker 1: days in shame on anybody whoever wished them away. Look 1597 01:20:11,240 --> 01:20:15,200 Speaker 1: at you, Deuce. It's been bad. It hasn't been it 1598 01:20:15,200 --> 01:20:17,519 Speaker 1: hasn't gone the way I was interested. I've been interested 1599 01:20:17,560 --> 01:20:19,240 Speaker 1: to see how it was going. I mean, I think 1600 01:20:19,240 --> 01:20:21,120 Speaker 1: it's high drama. I mean I don't think you know, 1601 01:20:21,160 --> 01:20:23,120 Speaker 1: maybe you don't love it if you're a Patriots fan, 1602 01:20:23,240 --> 01:20:25,800 Speaker 1: but if you're a sports fan, I think you eat 1603 01:20:25,840 --> 01:20:28,720 Speaker 1: it up. And that's why the Patriots are relevant for 1604 01:20:28,760 --> 01:20:31,479 Speaker 1: what they are still and I know, but look, I 1605 01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:33,519 Speaker 1: didn't think it was gonna go this bad. I gotta 1606 01:20:33,520 --> 01:20:36,639 Speaker 1: be honest. I'm with you, though I wanted to see 1607 01:20:36,640 --> 01:20:38,760 Speaker 1: what was next to not because I wanted what was 1608 01:20:38,800 --> 01:20:40,920 Speaker 1: going on to end, but I just knew eventually it 1609 01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:43,400 Speaker 1: would end right, right right. So that's the difference between 1610 01:20:43,400 --> 01:20:47,200 Speaker 1: you two. We needed to see the next and I 1611 01:20:47,280 --> 01:20:49,760 Speaker 1: was excited to get a new quarterback in here and 1612 01:20:49,800 --> 01:20:53,280 Speaker 1: hopefully had kind of start over right, And obviously it 1613 01:20:53,280 --> 01:20:57,679 Speaker 1: hasn't gone exactly as planned. But I'm not necessarily not 1614 01:20:57,760 --> 01:21:00,240 Speaker 1: with you on that, Like I'm with both the view 1615 01:21:00,240 --> 01:21:02,839 Speaker 1: on that part of it. The difference is he wanted 1616 01:21:02,840 --> 01:21:04,760 Speaker 1: to end the Brady error so that we could get 1617 01:21:04,800 --> 01:21:08,360 Speaker 1: to the quote unquote interesting part because winning twelve games 1618 01:21:08,360 --> 01:21:11,240 Speaker 1: every year was no longer interesting. Rats. That's my narrative now, 1619 01:21:11,280 --> 01:21:14,680 Speaker 1: that right there, that's my story, right, No, No, no, 1620 01:21:14,720 --> 01:21:17,400 Speaker 1: I I the way I like the way I Evan 1621 01:21:17,520 --> 01:21:20,240 Speaker 1: explained it better than the way you do. And it's like, no, 1622 01:21:20,400 --> 01:21:21,880 Speaker 1: I knew it was going to end at some point, 1623 01:21:22,040 --> 01:21:24,040 Speaker 1: and I was excited to see what they were gonna do, 1624 01:21:24,120 --> 01:21:26,400 Speaker 1: how are they were gonna unfold? And I would agree 1625 01:21:26,400 --> 01:21:28,280 Speaker 1: with that. Yeah, now I haven't been as excited about 1626 01:21:28,320 --> 01:21:30,240 Speaker 1: what I've seen, But yeah, I was thinking a little 1627 01:21:30,240 --> 01:21:33,559 Speaker 1: bit too about like like and this is probably gonna 1628 01:21:33,560 --> 01:21:35,160 Speaker 1: send us off a cliff right now, But but what 1629 01:21:35,160 --> 01:21:38,719 Speaker 1: what what should like compared to what other teams did 1630 01:21:38,760 --> 01:21:41,600 Speaker 1: with great quarterbacks at the end um? You know, is 1631 01:21:41,640 --> 01:21:43,320 Speaker 1: there is there another team? I was trying to think 1632 01:21:43,320 --> 01:21:45,599 Speaker 1: of another team that that did it great? Like did 1633 01:21:45,600 --> 01:21:47,559 Speaker 1: it perfect? I mean forty nine ers with going from 1634 01:21:47,560 --> 01:21:50,240 Speaker 1: Montana to young you know, but but what should they 1635 01:21:50,240 --> 01:21:51,800 Speaker 1: have done? Like you know what I mean, like like 1636 01:21:51,920 --> 01:21:55,320 Speaker 1: was it over? The difference is not necessarily like it's 1637 01:21:55,400 --> 01:21:59,880 Speaker 1: how is the guy playing? Like the difference is Brady 1638 01:22:00,000 --> 01:22:03,160 Speaker 1: continue to play at an exceptionally high level? Oh yeah, 1639 01:22:03,160 --> 01:22:05,640 Speaker 1: Like Dan Marino didn't, like you pull the plug on 1640 01:22:05,720 --> 01:22:09,240 Speaker 1: Dan Marino? He was done, but Montana went on Montana 1641 01:22:09,280 --> 01:22:13,679 Speaker 1: was still okay, yeah, in one good season, right yeah, 1642 01:22:13,800 --> 01:22:15,600 Speaker 1: and he's kind of he was kind of done. I 1643 01:22:15,640 --> 01:22:17,120 Speaker 1: agree that, Like, so what do you think that? What 1644 01:22:17,160 --> 01:22:19,200 Speaker 1: do you think then? What do you think? What do 1645 01:22:19,200 --> 01:22:21,880 Speaker 1: you think the Packers should be doing right now? Well? 1646 01:22:22,479 --> 01:22:24,920 Speaker 1: Dan Love, Yeah, the Packers have a guy Jordan Love 1647 01:22:24,960 --> 01:22:26,240 Speaker 1: I think is on the third or fourth year of 1648 01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:29,799 Speaker 1: his rookie contract already right, right, but you know, eventually, 1649 01:22:30,120 --> 01:22:32,320 Speaker 1: let's just say Rogers stay, they'd be in the same 1650 01:22:32,360 --> 01:22:36,680 Speaker 1: situation the Patriots were with Garoppolo, correct, exact same situation, 1651 01:22:37,080 --> 01:22:39,640 Speaker 1: Like they're they're right on the line right now of 1652 01:22:39,760 --> 01:22:43,360 Speaker 1: running that risk, right, wasting that first round pick, right 1653 01:22:43,400 --> 01:22:45,960 Speaker 1: because they're kind of entering that territory. Now that's right 1654 01:22:46,040 --> 01:22:49,919 Speaker 1: where you know, so they have a plan, but will 1655 01:22:50,040 --> 01:22:53,120 Speaker 1: Rogers the plan up? So then you know, and then 1656 01:22:53,120 --> 01:22:58,200 Speaker 1: you had Peyton Manning hand tanks. Well, but Peyton Manning 1657 01:22:58,240 --> 01:23:00,879 Speaker 1: got hurt, right, But I'm saying why they two and fourteen? 1658 01:23:00,920 --> 01:23:03,320 Speaker 1: Then they tanked? That's the idea. Wasn't playing at a 1659 01:23:03,400 --> 01:23:05,680 Speaker 1: high level, like if if Peyton Manning doesn't get hurt, 1660 01:23:05,720 --> 01:23:08,040 Speaker 1: they're not tanking that seat, right, but keeping Peyton Manning. 1661 01:23:08,120 --> 01:23:10,160 Speaker 1: But if the Patriots could have gotten the first overall 1662 01:23:10,160 --> 01:23:13,559 Speaker 1: pick in the twenty twenty draft, yeah, very lucky. What 1663 01:23:13,600 --> 01:23:15,639 Speaker 1: happened to the Colts was very very you know, it's 1664 01:23:15,680 --> 01:23:19,000 Speaker 1: just it's just non it's such a complicated. I think 1665 01:23:19,000 --> 01:23:20,800 Speaker 1: they did it exactly how they should have done it. 1666 01:23:20,920 --> 01:23:24,400 Speaker 1: They obviously not the decision to let Brady walk, But 1667 01:23:24,640 --> 01:23:28,559 Speaker 1: once that had that ship had sailed. They took a 1668 01:23:28,600 --> 01:23:30,719 Speaker 1: bridge year because they weren't going to get the quarterback 1669 01:23:30,720 --> 01:23:32,519 Speaker 1: in that draft because of where they were picking. And 1670 01:23:32,560 --> 01:23:34,559 Speaker 1: then they picked the quarterback when they were in the 1671 01:23:34,600 --> 01:23:36,920 Speaker 1: top fifteen. Now they were at fifteen, and I think 1672 01:23:36,960 --> 01:23:40,439 Speaker 1: that there are nitpicks there of should they have traded 1673 01:23:40,560 --> 01:23:42,880 Speaker 1: up and been more aggressive and not just taking the 1674 01:23:42,920 --> 01:23:45,920 Speaker 1: guy that fell into your lap at fifteen. Yeah, but 1675 01:23:46,240 --> 01:23:48,839 Speaker 1: that's what I would argue is you can keep Brady 1676 01:23:49,640 --> 01:23:52,639 Speaker 1: and okay, you you got Garoppolo. Okay, the time frame 1677 01:23:52,680 --> 01:23:55,880 Speaker 1: didn't work. Get another guy, you know, in the first 1678 01:23:55,960 --> 01:23:58,080 Speaker 1: or second round that you like. There had to be 1679 01:23:58,120 --> 01:24:03,680 Speaker 1: somebody they liked, h Lamar. It's tough because when what 1680 01:24:03,880 --> 01:24:07,360 Speaker 1: ended up happening was that in eighteen and nineteen there 1681 01:24:07,479 --> 01:24:09,879 Speaker 1: was a run of quarterbacks at the top of the draft. 1682 01:24:09,960 --> 01:24:13,519 Speaker 1: You know that, I don't know the middle ground there 1683 01:24:13,640 --> 01:24:15,600 Speaker 1: was not very great. Who was that guy that was 1684 01:24:15,640 --> 01:24:18,920 Speaker 1: available that they missed at quarterback in that window? Well, 1685 01:24:18,920 --> 01:24:20,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't have all the guys in front 1686 01:24:20,320 --> 01:24:22,760 Speaker 1: of me. But no, in twenty twenty could have taken 1687 01:24:22,800 --> 01:24:25,800 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts. There were teams that went from There were 1688 01:24:25,800 --> 01:24:28,000 Speaker 1: teams that went from like twenty seven into the top 1689 01:24:28,040 --> 01:24:30,880 Speaker 1: ten to get stuts. You could have been one of those. Yeah, 1690 01:24:31,160 --> 01:24:33,960 Speaker 1: that's a difference, I think to a degree. Like if 1691 01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:36,040 Speaker 1: you want to make the case that they should have 1692 01:24:36,040 --> 01:24:38,439 Speaker 1: traded up the draft Justin Fields instead of just waiting 1693 01:24:38,439 --> 01:24:42,840 Speaker 1: on Mac, I could hear that argument now. I think, granted, 1694 01:24:42,920 --> 01:24:44,880 Speaker 1: what it's become is I don't even know what kind 1695 01:24:44,920 --> 01:24:46,760 Speaker 1: of system it's become now, but this isn't that they 1696 01:24:46,800 --> 01:24:48,439 Speaker 1: wanted to run in. Where they were going to run 1697 01:24:48,479 --> 01:24:51,559 Speaker 1: with McDaniels was certainly more tailored towards Mac Jones than 1698 01:24:51,560 --> 01:24:53,840 Speaker 1: it was to Justin Fields. So I think that that's 1699 01:24:53,880 --> 01:24:58,559 Speaker 1: an element of it too. But I meant more when 1700 01:24:58,560 --> 01:25:00,479 Speaker 1: Brady was still here, Like I I know what you're 1701 01:25:00,479 --> 01:25:03,000 Speaker 1: saying about Justin Fields, you know, just last year, but 1702 01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:06,320 Speaker 1: yours is probably the best one. You could have sat 1703 01:25:06,439 --> 01:25:08,639 Speaker 1: right where you were and taken Lamar Jackson, who I 1704 01:25:08,680 --> 01:25:12,439 Speaker 1: think Josh really liked. Yeah, Brady, Brady would have lost 1705 01:25:12,520 --> 01:25:14,760 Speaker 1: and Brady, yeah, he would have like exploded. Maybe it 1706 01:25:14,760 --> 01:25:19,200 Speaker 1: would have spurred him onto another time. Mark, I mean, 1707 01:25:20,800 --> 01:25:25,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. That was nineteen Yeah, nineteen nineteen, so 1708 01:25:25,920 --> 01:25:29,240 Speaker 1: that draft would have been around the time No, Yeah, 1709 01:25:29,280 --> 01:25:30,600 Speaker 1: that draft would have been around the time that you 1710 01:25:30,720 --> 01:25:33,439 Speaker 1: knew that Brady wasn't coming back. Yeah, I don't love 1711 01:25:35,479 --> 01:25:37,720 Speaker 1: you're saying at the eighteen draft, I take it back, 1712 01:25:38,200 --> 01:25:41,799 Speaker 1: they took Michelle and win and and didn't take Lamar. Okay, 1713 01:25:41,760 --> 01:25:43,800 Speaker 1: y that never mind. I mean I still would have 1714 01:25:43,800 --> 01:25:46,240 Speaker 1: done it, but it wouldn't have worked for my time 1715 01:25:46,280 --> 01:25:49,520 Speaker 1: friend Market Clearwater. Of course, I'm one of the originals, 1716 01:25:49,560 --> 01:25:53,760 Speaker 1: PFW Nelson Smerless and mister original Fred. But seems like 1717 01:25:53,800 --> 01:25:57,200 Speaker 1: you don't read emails anymore, and you have five exact 1718 01:25:57,280 --> 01:26:01,240 Speaker 1: same callers every show, and they're not informative entertaining. Please 1719 01:26:01,320 --> 01:26:03,800 Speaker 1: let's get back to being the Patriots Nation show and 1720 01:26:03,880 --> 01:26:06,679 Speaker 1: break free from the same old, same old. After all, 1721 01:26:06,720 --> 01:26:08,960 Speaker 1: it's not like we have a team to watch winning 1722 01:26:09,400 --> 01:26:11,839 Speaker 1: ps mac is and our guy you can't teach pocket 1723 01:26:11,880 --> 01:26:14,479 Speaker 1: presents and he's way too much of a spoiled brat 1724 01:26:14,479 --> 01:26:17,120 Speaker 1: to grow. Shout out to Paul my Everett brother in 1725 01:26:17,160 --> 01:26:21,599 Speaker 1: all our street hockey days? Who is this? Marc Auger? Oh? Okay, 1726 01:26:21,640 --> 01:26:29,200 Speaker 1: how you doing, Mark Um? Not well? PFW Nelson Smerless 1727 01:26:29,200 --> 01:26:31,840 Speaker 1: in the original Fred. Oh, that's like I think those 1728 01:26:31,840 --> 01:26:34,200 Speaker 1: guys did little columns in the newspaper. I think that's 1729 01:26:34,200 --> 01:26:37,840 Speaker 1: what he's referring to. Ok. Yeah, Steve Nelson Smerless did it. 1730 01:26:38,439 --> 01:26:41,840 Speaker 1: I had Hannah do it. This is the initials in 1731 01:26:41,880 --> 01:26:45,240 Speaker 1: the nineties. Yeah, what was the first issue of PFW. 1732 01:26:45,240 --> 01:26:51,400 Speaker 1: What was in that issue? And who was writing home anything? Like? 1733 01:26:51,439 --> 01:26:53,800 Speaker 1: We had a few, right, we had a freelance to 1734 01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:56,719 Speaker 1: freelance writers on game day that would write the game stuff. 1735 01:26:56,960 --> 01:26:59,559 Speaker 1: But anything during the week I wrote pretty much that 1736 01:26:59,640 --> 01:27:01,439 Speaker 1: was so just you and a couple. I had a 1737 01:27:01,479 --> 01:27:05,000 Speaker 1: couple of interns. Yeah. Yeah, and then first year just 1738 01:27:05,000 --> 01:27:07,439 Speaker 1: just did the newspaper weekly. So anything that didn't have 1739 01:27:07,439 --> 01:27:11,920 Speaker 1: a byeline in the newspaper I wrote. Yeah, I used 1740 01:27:11,960 --> 01:27:14,640 Speaker 1: to do weekly picks with the spread and everything. The 1741 01:27:15,160 --> 01:27:18,560 Speaker 1: pocket presence think or we go to that because I 1742 01:27:18,880 --> 01:27:24,760 Speaker 1: just know what what am I not seeing? Like pocket presence? Yeah, Like, 1743 01:27:25,080 --> 01:27:27,439 Speaker 1: I don't know what that means first of all, because 1744 01:27:27,479 --> 01:27:31,000 Speaker 1: I think everybody defines that differently for some reason. Are 1745 01:27:31,040 --> 01:27:35,639 Speaker 1: we talking about pocket movement? Are we talking about sensing pressure? 1746 01:27:35,840 --> 01:27:40,679 Speaker 1: Sensing pressure? Yes, Okay, I don't know. I don't see 1747 01:27:40,760 --> 01:27:43,600 Speaker 1: him as a quarterback that doesn't sense pressure. Like to me, 1748 01:27:43,800 --> 01:27:47,800 Speaker 1: quarterbacks that don't sense pressure, turn into statues, get blindsided 1749 01:27:47,840 --> 01:27:50,240 Speaker 1: by the rush and fumble right like that that those 1750 01:27:50,280 --> 01:27:54,640 Speaker 1: are quarterbacks that don't sense pressure, don't feel pressure in 1751 01:27:54,680 --> 01:27:58,280 Speaker 1: the pocket. And I don't see him doing that. Like 1752 01:27:58,439 --> 01:28:00,280 Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of things that he does wrong. 1753 01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:03,040 Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong. It's not like he's free of 1754 01:28:03,120 --> 01:28:06,800 Speaker 1: blame here. But I keep hearing this pocket presence thing, 1755 01:28:06,840 --> 01:28:09,960 Speaker 1: and I just don't really know what people are seeing. 1756 01:28:10,439 --> 01:28:12,599 Speaker 1: I think are in the same place right now where 1757 01:28:12,600 --> 01:28:15,120 Speaker 1: we're like, we're not even talking about personnel this offseason 1758 01:28:15,240 --> 01:28:17,320 Speaker 1: until we figure out the coaching situation, Like don't even 1759 01:28:17,360 --> 01:28:19,040 Speaker 1: talk to me about your mock draft, don't even talk 1760 01:28:19,040 --> 01:28:21,679 Speaker 1: to about agency, Like, just get a system in place 1761 01:28:21,720 --> 01:28:23,880 Speaker 1: that people can be successful before we start. Oh yeah, 1762 01:28:23,880 --> 01:28:26,200 Speaker 1: Barth is already talking to me about the draft and 1763 01:28:26,200 --> 01:28:29,080 Speaker 1: he's doing his tend to watch in the college football 1764 01:28:29,120 --> 01:28:32,240 Speaker 1: playoff this week, and I'm like, dude, none of this matters, Like, 1765 01:28:32,520 --> 01:28:35,360 Speaker 1: none of it matters until they have an offensive coordinator, 1766 01:28:35,680 --> 01:28:38,400 Speaker 1: if they draft Jordan Addison or they draft Josh Downs, 1767 01:28:38,479 --> 01:28:41,720 Speaker 1: or they draft Jackson Smith and Jigbu, like none of 1768 01:28:41,720 --> 01:28:45,280 Speaker 1: it matters. Already ahead of me, Chris with a t 1769 01:28:45,600 --> 01:28:50,840 Speaker 1: I a n Hey Christian, Hey guys, what's happening? Paul 1770 01:28:51,000 --> 01:28:57,880 Speaker 1: is left to go watch sports, very low level sports. Yeah. 1771 01:28:58,000 --> 01:29:02,000 Speaker 1: Oh um, I'll tell you you guys have been scaring 1772 01:29:02,040 --> 01:29:04,960 Speaker 1: me the past couple of weeks, in particular Deuce Um 1773 01:29:05,520 --> 01:29:09,320 Speaker 1: when you talk when you're talking about them potentially running 1774 01:29:09,320 --> 01:29:12,160 Speaker 1: it back with Maddie p Oh, that was passile thing 1775 01:29:12,160 --> 01:29:15,680 Speaker 1: he just laid out this show. Yeah, and I and 1776 01:29:16,040 --> 01:29:19,559 Speaker 1: you know, and Bill basically like talking Robert into saying, 1777 01:29:19,600 --> 01:29:23,680 Speaker 1: you know, I did Maddie p wrong. I'll get an 1778 01:29:23,680 --> 01:29:26,120 Speaker 1: offensive line coach and hero take take you know, that 1779 01:29:26,320 --> 01:29:30,000 Speaker 1: office plate. He'll focus on being a coordinator. He's got 1780 01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:34,120 Speaker 1: a year under his spelt. You know, he'll be better. Yeah. 1781 01:29:34,439 --> 01:29:36,640 Speaker 1: And that scares the crap out of me. And the 1782 01:29:36,720 --> 01:29:39,960 Speaker 1: question I have for you guys is, um, do you 1783 01:29:39,960 --> 01:29:43,240 Speaker 1: have any idea if it's just Bill and Robert that 1784 01:29:43,360 --> 01:29:47,080 Speaker 1: sit down? Is it? Is it Bill, Robert and Jonathan? 1785 01:29:47,479 --> 01:29:51,120 Speaker 1: I think Jonathan's involved? Yeah, Yeah, I think Jonathan's involved. 1786 01:29:51,360 --> 01:29:53,599 Speaker 1: And I'll bet you know so. I don't know if 1787 01:29:53,640 --> 01:29:57,160 Speaker 1: Matt grow is involved, but you know it's a possibility. 1788 01:29:57,280 --> 01:30:00,200 Speaker 1: Probably Cassario in the past might have been Yeah, Eli 1789 01:30:00,280 --> 01:30:03,080 Speaker 1: or somebody. Yeah, but but it's a pretty small meeting, 1790 01:30:03,400 --> 01:30:07,800 Speaker 1: very small. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't think they're 1791 01:30:07,840 --> 01:30:12,320 Speaker 1: interested in hearing what, you know, Patrician Patricia has to 1792 01:30:12,360 --> 01:30:14,800 Speaker 1: say or Joe Judge. I think they want to hear it. 1793 01:30:15,760 --> 01:30:18,320 Speaker 1: They just want to know what Bill thinks primarily, and 1794 01:30:18,400 --> 01:30:20,840 Speaker 1: you know, maybe Mac grow for the draft, but primarily 1795 01:30:21,280 --> 01:30:26,120 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick. Yeah man, yeah, So I mean, I, you know, 1796 01:30:26,320 --> 01:30:29,240 Speaker 1: and I was really on the wagon of I just 1797 01:30:29,280 --> 01:30:32,040 Speaker 1: want this season to end, and you know, I can't 1798 01:30:32,040 --> 01:30:35,680 Speaker 1: wait for next year. And then I you know, I 1799 01:30:35,760 --> 01:30:37,439 Speaker 1: kind of took a step back and I'm like, you know, 1800 01:30:37,479 --> 01:30:42,360 Speaker 1: if they do make a playoffs, great, they made the playoffs. Yeah, 1801 01:30:42,400 --> 01:30:45,080 Speaker 1: for me, it's great, an extra game. I'm a I'm 1802 01:30:45,120 --> 01:30:47,000 Speaker 1: all for it. For it, I'm all for it. I 1803 01:30:47,120 --> 01:30:50,240 Speaker 1: just like all these people, Oh, they shouldn't have the 1804 01:30:50,280 --> 01:30:54,120 Speaker 1: playoffs because they don't deserve to be screw that, you know, Oh, 1805 01:30:54,520 --> 01:30:57,400 Speaker 1: I don't they don't deserve it. If they have a 1806 01:30:57,520 --> 01:31:00,640 Speaker 1: record where they earn a playoff birth, then how do 1807 01:31:00,720 --> 01:31:03,679 Speaker 1: they not deserve it, Like, I don't understand what that means. 1808 01:31:03,800 --> 01:31:06,160 Speaker 1: They didn't get in with style points, right, Yeah. I 1809 01:31:06,200 --> 01:31:08,599 Speaker 1: just think there's a big difference between beating Miami, even 1810 01:31:08,640 --> 01:31:11,600 Speaker 1: with Teddy Bridgewater, beating Buffalo in Buffalo, which you know 1811 01:31:11,720 --> 01:31:14,680 Speaker 1: is a tall task, and instead of beating Miami and 1812 01:31:14,720 --> 01:31:18,160 Speaker 1: then losing the Buffalo and needing like seven permutations and 1813 01:31:18,200 --> 01:31:20,200 Speaker 1: then you get in like like that or that one, 1814 01:31:20,200 --> 01:31:23,280 Speaker 1: I'll be a little bit like all right, yeah, but hey, 1815 01:31:24,640 --> 01:31:28,040 Speaker 1: it's like the college basketball pitch game where you know, 1816 01:31:28,320 --> 01:31:30,920 Speaker 1: the Patriots need like eight things to happen, and it happens, 1817 01:31:30,960 --> 01:31:33,920 Speaker 1: and they show the Patriots at the facility crazy. I 1818 01:31:33,960 --> 01:31:39,520 Speaker 1: don't think that's gonna happen twelve. I do. It's December 1819 01:31:39,560 --> 01:31:43,519 Speaker 1: twenty eighth, Wednesday, December twenty eighth, and I'm gonna sit 1820 01:31:43,600 --> 01:31:46,960 Speaker 1: here and just from everything that I've pieced together, I 1821 01:31:47,000 --> 01:31:50,200 Speaker 1: guarantee you that the offensive coaching structure will be different 1822 01:31:50,240 --> 01:31:54,160 Speaker 1: next year. Yeah, I guarantee it. I don't know if 1823 01:31:54,160 --> 01:31:56,280 Speaker 1: it's going to be Bill O'Brien. I don't know if 1824 01:31:56,280 --> 01:31:59,160 Speaker 1: it's going to be a wholesale change where O'Brien comes in, 1825 01:31:59,280 --> 01:32:03,000 Speaker 1: brings his whole own staff and everybody's out. I don't 1826 01:32:03,040 --> 01:32:06,479 Speaker 1: know about that, but there will be like there will 1827 01:32:06,479 --> 01:32:08,280 Speaker 1: be an adult in the room next year that knows 1828 01:32:08,280 --> 01:32:10,760 Speaker 1: what he's doing. There's no chance they just run it back. 1829 01:32:11,479 --> 01:32:13,599 Speaker 1: You saying that it makes me makes me feel nice. 1830 01:32:14,680 --> 01:32:16,360 Speaker 1: But I think it's more a thing where it's not 1831 01:32:16,400 --> 01:32:17,960 Speaker 1: like I think a lot of people will be like 1832 01:32:18,000 --> 01:32:20,599 Speaker 1: fire maps a fire, Joe Judge, but you know, fire 1833 01:32:20,600 --> 01:32:24,000 Speaker 1: everybody and then bring fire the fire. It's gonna be 1834 01:32:24,000 --> 01:32:25,960 Speaker 1: a juggle, Like I think it's gonna be a juggle. 1835 01:32:26,040 --> 01:32:28,400 Speaker 1: And I don't really think anybody's gonna get fired, but 1836 01:32:28,439 --> 01:32:31,360 Speaker 1: some people are gonna get reassigned, and and I don't 1837 01:32:31,360 --> 01:32:34,040 Speaker 1: think that that's necessarily the worst thing, but I just 1838 01:32:34,160 --> 01:32:36,360 Speaker 1: I think I'm I'm all on board. If if you 1839 01:32:36,400 --> 01:32:39,280 Speaker 1: need new map, Patrician goes back upstairs, that's a given. 1840 01:32:39,320 --> 01:32:43,519 Speaker 1: He'll be senior football advisor at Better. He'll advise the offense, 1841 01:32:43,560 --> 01:32:46,200 Speaker 1: and he'll he'll be up back upstairs. I think you know, 1842 01:32:46,200 --> 01:32:50,400 Speaker 1: to the we had an email earlier that said why 1843 01:32:50,479 --> 01:32:52,760 Speaker 1: not just bring guys in like why the stop gap 1844 01:32:52,880 --> 01:32:55,080 Speaker 1: year right and or the bridge year. I think a 1845 01:32:55,080 --> 01:32:57,920 Speaker 1: big reason why you can't do that is because if 1846 01:32:57,960 --> 01:33:00,760 Speaker 1: they then go ahead and hire Bill O'Brien and he 1847 01:33:00,800 --> 01:33:04,719 Speaker 1: cleans house a year later, it's that's not a position 1848 01:33:04,760 --> 01:33:07,679 Speaker 1: that these assistants want to be in right where you're 1849 01:33:07,720 --> 01:33:10,880 Speaker 1: coming in to be on Matt Patricia's staff essentially, and 1850 01:33:10,920 --> 01:33:13,479 Speaker 1: then in a year, you know you're you're you're out 1851 01:33:13,479 --> 01:33:16,000 Speaker 1: of a job like that. That's not really a great 1852 01:33:16,000 --> 01:33:18,200 Speaker 1: spot to be in. So I don't really think it 1853 01:33:18,240 --> 01:33:21,839 Speaker 1: was a very desirable situation, either to be an offensive 1854 01:33:21,880 --> 01:33:24,720 Speaker 1: line coach or a quarterbacks coach and be hired by 1855 01:33:24,720 --> 01:33:28,920 Speaker 1: the Patriots. Right. Uh, let's see, Eldred's is North Carolina. 1856 01:33:29,000 --> 01:33:31,639 Speaker 1: He needs to ask Mike a question. What's your question? 1857 01:33:31,680 --> 01:33:37,200 Speaker 1: Eldred La, I want to answer this question. Question. Oh, 1858 01:33:37,200 --> 01:33:41,080 Speaker 1: you're gonna answer a questions about saying about Joe Montana 1859 01:33:41,320 --> 01:33:44,240 Speaker 1: and Steve Yo. Yeah, I told you, I told you 1860 01:33:44,240 --> 01:33:48,360 Speaker 1: when Brady left team. Normally, when with a great quarterback leave, 1861 01:33:48,600 --> 01:33:50,599 Speaker 1: it takes in the wheel from five three to five 1862 01:33:50,800 --> 01:33:54,799 Speaker 1: ten years something longer. It ain't the coach, it's the quarterback. 1863 01:33:55,160 --> 01:33:58,360 Speaker 1: And I gave you example Joe Montana Steve Yo. They 1864 01:33:58,400 --> 01:34:00,720 Speaker 1: had the same team. Took Steve on three years to 1865 01:34:00,760 --> 01:34:03,679 Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl when they beat the Charges, same 1866 01:34:03,800 --> 01:34:07,760 Speaker 1: king took him three years. Dallas atment they an't been 1867 01:34:07,800 --> 01:34:14,000 Speaker 1: back sin Pitchburg. Uh. Bradshaw then my boy took him, 1868 01:34:14,120 --> 01:34:16,519 Speaker 1: Big Being took him twice, then me and back Sin. 1869 01:34:17,439 --> 01:34:24,400 Speaker 1: Miami ain't been back Sin. You know, Buffalo Kelly ain't 1870 01:34:24,400 --> 01:34:27,559 Speaker 1: made it there yet. He's so it's always the quarterback. 1871 01:34:27,600 --> 01:34:30,760 Speaker 1: It ain't just the coach, it's the quarterback. And I've 1872 01:34:30,760 --> 01:34:33,360 Speaker 1: been different. That's why, you know, like I said, it's hard. Yeah, 1873 01:34:33,439 --> 01:34:37,160 Speaker 1: team here, we ain't got off as coordinator. So yeah, 1874 01:34:37,200 --> 01:34:39,200 Speaker 1: I mean, all that's true. I just I guess, I guess. 1875 01:34:39,200 --> 01:34:42,639 Speaker 1: My question is with twenty twenty hindsight and knowing everything 1876 01:34:42,640 --> 01:34:44,280 Speaker 1: that you just laid out was completely true, you know, 1877 01:34:44,360 --> 01:34:45,880 Speaker 1: just how you know, what would what would you have 1878 01:34:45,920 --> 01:34:49,440 Speaker 1: done different? You know, how could you have approached this differently? Um? 1879 01:34:49,560 --> 01:34:50,960 Speaker 1: You know so that it didn't I mean, and I 1880 01:34:51,040 --> 01:34:52,880 Speaker 1: agree with your point, like it's it's really hard to 1881 01:34:52,880 --> 01:34:54,760 Speaker 1: find quarterbacks. It's not like there's just an easy plan 1882 01:34:54,840 --> 01:34:57,280 Speaker 1: you plug a guy in. But I just in retrospect, 1883 01:34:57,320 --> 01:34:59,000 Speaker 1: it was such a monumental thing that you knew what 1884 01:34:59,080 --> 01:35:01,000 Speaker 1: was going to happen. You know, could how could you 1885 01:35:01,040 --> 01:35:03,559 Speaker 1: might maybe have himpled it better? Yeah? Well, in a way, 1886 01:35:03,960 --> 01:35:07,679 Speaker 1: Brady did welcome Lamar because you thought that was being Lamar. 1887 01:35:08,160 --> 01:35:13,160 Speaker 1: But we traded to the Ravens. Ravens got Lamar, Welcome, 1888 01:35:13,240 --> 01:35:15,400 Speaker 1: Welcome Lamarca. He thought he gonna pick Lamar. I just 1889 01:35:15,400 --> 01:35:18,439 Speaker 1: don't understand the timeline for Lamar, because I look, I 1890 01:35:18,479 --> 01:35:22,000 Speaker 1: love Lamar. Lamar is probably my favorite quarterback in the league. Honestly, 1891 01:35:22,280 --> 01:35:25,639 Speaker 1: day they're both up there. I love Lamar, love them, 1892 01:35:25,760 --> 01:35:28,880 Speaker 1: loved him coming out, love them now. But Brady didn't 1893 01:35:28,920 --> 01:35:31,200 Speaker 1: leave until after twenty nineteen, So that means that Lamar 1894 01:35:31,240 --> 01:35:33,680 Speaker 1: is sitting on the bench for at least two seasons, right, 1895 01:35:34,120 --> 01:35:38,960 Speaker 1: So I just don't really understand the timeline of like 1896 01:35:39,000 --> 01:35:41,720 Speaker 1: it's it's it's Jordan love right, you know. And at 1897 01:35:41,720 --> 01:35:43,640 Speaker 1: the time, and look, I understand that we can have 1898 01:35:43,680 --> 01:35:46,479 Speaker 1: a conversation about Sony and Isaiah Win and how good 1899 01:35:46,479 --> 01:35:52,120 Speaker 1: those picks actually were, but those especially Sony, contributed directly 1900 01:35:52,120 --> 01:35:54,439 Speaker 1: to winning a Super Bowl. Yeah, And and and we 1901 01:35:54,640 --> 01:35:58,680 Speaker 1: heard that McDaniels really like Lamar Jackson. We don't know, 1902 01:35:58,760 --> 01:36:01,760 Speaker 1: but we heard that. But did Bill? The Bill was 1903 01:36:01,840 --> 01:36:05,360 Speaker 1: Bill willing to do what did and totally revamp your offense. 1904 01:36:05,880 --> 01:36:09,040 Speaker 1: That's the biggest As much as as much of a 1905 01:36:09,280 --> 01:36:12,719 Speaker 1: terrific quarterback as he is. Greg Roman runs an offense 1906 01:36:12,720 --> 01:36:16,640 Speaker 1: that only Lamar Jackson's right, that's right, and you have 1907 01:36:16,720 --> 01:36:19,520 Speaker 1: to They hired Greg Roman because Roman worked with Kaepernick 1908 01:36:19,560 --> 01:36:22,160 Speaker 1: and San Francisco in his college days. He ran a 1909 01:36:22,240 --> 01:36:25,840 Speaker 1: read option offense, like that's his offense from the days 1910 01:36:26,479 --> 01:36:28,800 Speaker 1: he's in college and in the pros. So they hired 1911 01:36:28,840 --> 01:36:30,800 Speaker 1: Greg Roman knowing that he was going to be that 1912 01:36:30,880 --> 01:36:33,439 Speaker 1: type of coach. Of course, Jim had Greg Roman in 1913 01:36:33,479 --> 01:36:36,200 Speaker 1: San Francisco, so they had the Harbot connection and that's 1914 01:36:36,200 --> 01:36:37,880 Speaker 1: how you get there. I just think it's it's still 1915 01:36:37,920 --> 01:36:40,200 Speaker 1: an interesting debate because he's going to be a free agent. 1916 01:36:40,240 --> 01:36:42,080 Speaker 1: I mean, and you know, everything event said, would I 1917 01:36:42,080 --> 01:36:45,880 Speaker 1: meant redid their offense? So you know, if you're if 1918 01:36:45,880 --> 01:36:47,720 Speaker 1: you're not going to stick with Lamar, does that mean 1919 01:36:48,400 --> 01:36:50,280 Speaker 1: you know that you're gonna re jigger it means Greg 1920 01:36:50,320 --> 01:36:51,760 Speaker 1: Roman out. Are you all of a sudden not going 1921 01:36:51,800 --> 01:36:54,559 Speaker 1: to get another Lamar to another you know kind offense. 1922 01:36:54,600 --> 01:36:56,960 Speaker 1: It's just an interesting position that they're in, which I 1923 01:36:56,960 --> 01:36:59,240 Speaker 1: mean clearly it's I think they're going to have months. 1924 01:36:59,479 --> 01:37:01,599 Speaker 1: I think I've absolutely blown away if he gets out 1925 01:37:01,600 --> 01:37:05,719 Speaker 1: of the building. Yeah, David and Wisconsin. Last week, Paul 1926 01:37:05,800 --> 01:37:08,200 Speaker 1: mentioned his first year working with the Patriots was Pete 1927 01:37:08,200 --> 01:37:11,240 Speaker 1: Carroll's last year, and it reminded me to ask this question. 1928 01:37:11,560 --> 01:37:14,559 Speaker 1: Of course, I might be misremembering. I thought I read 1929 01:37:14,680 --> 01:37:17,120 Speaker 1: in a PFW issue that Pete called in Paul and 1930 01:37:17,200 --> 01:37:19,479 Speaker 1: Mike Reese in his office and told them to more 1931 01:37:19,560 --> 01:37:23,280 Speaker 1: or less do their jobs better covering the team. Did 1932 01:37:23,280 --> 01:37:26,519 Speaker 1: this happen. I'm not sure that happened. He called me 1933 01:37:26,560 --> 01:37:29,800 Speaker 1: into his office. It was after it was the first 1934 01:37:29,880 --> 01:37:33,080 Speaker 1: year Pete was the coach and we were playing the Jets, 1935 01:37:33,080 --> 01:37:36,040 Speaker 1: and I think Glenn Foley from BC was their quarterback 1936 01:37:36,160 --> 01:37:40,400 Speaker 1: and we lost and we rarely put like opposing player 1937 01:37:40,520 --> 01:37:43,759 Speaker 1: on our cover. But after that game, I put Glenn 1938 01:37:43,800 --> 01:37:48,200 Speaker 1: Foley and I had Broadway foe because we just lost 1939 01:37:48,200 --> 01:37:51,559 Speaker 1: to the Jets, and you know, like that's when the 1940 01:37:51,640 --> 01:37:55,960 Speaker 1: Border War was like at at its height. And after that, 1941 01:37:56,000 --> 01:37:58,960 Speaker 1: like I gotta call Piece, like you gotta come down here. 1942 01:37:58,960 --> 01:38:01,559 Speaker 1: I gotta talk to you. And he's he's like, you 1943 01:38:01,600 --> 01:38:03,679 Speaker 1: know how it is around here? How can you do this? 1944 01:38:04,400 --> 01:38:08,200 Speaker 1: You know? And I'm like, he's from BC. We lost, 1945 01:38:08,400 --> 01:38:11,800 Speaker 1: you know, like but like I can understand him being 1946 01:38:11,840 --> 01:38:14,320 Speaker 1: like Fred, I need your help man, though, because like 1947 01:38:15,040 --> 01:38:18,519 Speaker 1: if there was one game he couldn't lose while coach. 1948 01:38:18,920 --> 01:38:22,280 Speaker 1: It was to the Jets. To parcels. Yeah, it's interesting 1949 01:38:22,320 --> 01:38:24,320 Speaker 1: you had, I mean, you had what five six years 1950 01:38:24,800 --> 01:38:27,240 Speaker 1: parcels at first oversee you know the McCarroll, but kind 1951 01:38:27,240 --> 01:38:30,000 Speaker 1: of prepare you like in terms of content wise, like 1952 01:38:30,040 --> 01:38:32,360 Speaker 1: you know, were you prepared when the Belichick shift came 1953 01:38:32,360 --> 01:38:34,200 Speaker 1: that you know you kind of already knew not to 1954 01:38:34,240 --> 01:38:36,880 Speaker 1: do something like that. Perhaps that that Belichick, but it 1955 01:38:37,000 --> 01:38:38,840 Speaker 1: just seems like there's kind of like some parameters were 1956 01:38:38,920 --> 01:38:41,760 Speaker 1: kind of established by the Bill got here that you knew, well, 1957 01:38:42,320 --> 01:38:45,559 Speaker 1: you knew you weren't getting any access, you know, so 1958 01:38:46,080 --> 01:38:48,519 Speaker 1: because what do you mean, Parcels would be like I'm 1959 01:38:48,520 --> 01:38:51,280 Speaker 1: in the said, I'm in the business of getting information, 1960 01:38:51,400 --> 01:38:54,360 Speaker 1: not giving it, you know. So, but he would do 1961 01:38:54,400 --> 01:38:57,599 Speaker 1: it in a wise New Jersey wise guy type of way, 1962 01:38:58,080 --> 01:39:00,439 Speaker 1: you know. So it was entertaining for the median. They 1963 01:39:00,439 --> 01:39:04,320 Speaker 1: would eat out of his lap, you know. Oh, the 1964 01:39:04,400 --> 01:39:07,240 Speaker 1: old Guard media like the reverence that they have for 1965 01:39:07,360 --> 01:39:10,080 Speaker 1: Bill parcels and he would just treat them like dirt. 1966 01:39:10,240 --> 01:39:13,000 Speaker 1: And yet they they just came back looking for more. 1967 01:39:15,000 --> 01:39:19,360 Speaker 1: Few of those they talk about, Oh the fact that 1968 01:39:19,400 --> 01:39:21,320 Speaker 1: he's not in the Patriots Hall of Fame is the 1969 01:39:21,400 --> 01:39:24,920 Speaker 1: biggest disgrace to human time in their eyes, that you've 1970 01:39:24,920 --> 01:39:30,000 Speaker 1: ever seen. Coach left it. He was that every year, 1971 01:39:30,520 --> 01:39:32,240 Speaker 1: told the owner he didn't know if he wanted to 1972 01:39:32,280 --> 01:39:35,160 Speaker 1: be here. Yeah, And then and then on the biggest 1973 01:39:35,200 --> 01:39:39,240 Speaker 1: week of the franchise's history, arguably he's on the phone 1974 01:39:39,280 --> 01:39:41,439 Speaker 1: more with the Jets than talking to his own coaches. 1975 01:39:41,640 --> 01:39:45,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's like those are facts, you know, 1976 01:39:45,080 --> 01:39:47,439 Speaker 1: Like it's hard. Yes, he was a great coach and 1977 01:39:47,479 --> 01:39:49,280 Speaker 1: he did a lot for the French blah blah blah, 1978 01:39:49,320 --> 01:39:51,400 Speaker 1: but it all it's a body of work and it's 1979 01:39:51,439 --> 01:39:53,640 Speaker 1: a team hall of fame. And he kicked it off 1980 01:39:53,640 --> 01:39:56,800 Speaker 1: to Desmond Howard, So like, how can we really put 1981 01:39:56,960 --> 01:40:01,519 Speaker 1: and Reggie White when office? And they just left him 1982 01:40:01,560 --> 01:40:05,200 Speaker 1: on the three year old year old Evans counting the table. 1983 01:40:05,280 --> 01:40:08,800 Speaker 1: What are we doing? Literally, you're just kicked it off 1984 01:40:08,800 --> 01:40:14,479 Speaker 1: to the Heisman Trophy winner. Why don't you go ahead? Um, 1985 01:40:16,960 --> 01:40:19,679 Speaker 1: Mitch and albany h do you guys see a scenario 1986 01:40:19,800 --> 01:40:22,599 Speaker 1: next year where the Patriots make Marcus Jones a full 1987 01:40:22,640 --> 01:40:25,680 Speaker 1: time receiver. I know, I'm not sure how great of 1988 01:40:25,680 --> 01:40:27,400 Speaker 1: a route runner he is, but I think I've seen 1989 01:40:27,520 --> 01:40:29,760 Speaker 1: enough to say he's a big time playmaker with the 1990 01:40:29,760 --> 01:40:31,600 Speaker 1: ball in his hands. If they sign a couple of 1991 01:40:31,680 --> 01:40:34,040 Speaker 1: veteran corners in the off season, I think they should 1992 01:40:34,040 --> 01:40:38,000 Speaker 1: switch him to offense full time. Not happening. I always 1993 01:40:38,040 --> 01:40:41,680 Speaker 1: say that, like if you play cornerback, you play cornerback. 1994 01:40:41,720 --> 01:40:43,920 Speaker 1: You don't go from corner to safety. But you can't 1995 01:40:43,920 --> 01:40:47,919 Speaker 1: go from safety to corner. You don't go from defense 1996 01:40:48,000 --> 01:40:51,880 Speaker 1: to offense. You know, you can't go from offensive deva. 1997 01:40:51,920 --> 01:40:54,240 Speaker 1: But if you were a good wide receiver, then you 1998 01:40:54,320 --> 01:40:56,600 Speaker 1: were a good wide receiver in college too. There's a 1999 01:40:56,600 --> 01:40:59,639 Speaker 1: reason why in college he was never a full time 2000 01:40:59,680 --> 01:41:02,120 Speaker 1: wide receiver. He did it a little, but you know, 2001 01:41:02,280 --> 01:41:04,880 Speaker 1: I would just say this though, he's an electric player, 2002 01:41:04,920 --> 01:41:07,639 Speaker 1: and I would keep five to six plays every game 2003 01:41:07,680 --> 01:41:09,840 Speaker 1: in the package. And if he ultimately just ends up 2004 01:41:09,840 --> 01:41:12,679 Speaker 1: as a slot corner where he's not playing every down, 2005 01:41:13,080 --> 01:41:14,840 Speaker 1: then I think it all matches up. He's too good, 2006 01:41:14,880 --> 01:41:17,320 Speaker 1: he's too explosive. They need guys like that. I don't 2007 01:41:17,320 --> 01:41:18,960 Speaker 1: need to see him full time, but I think he can. 2008 01:41:19,120 --> 01:41:20,720 Speaker 1: I mean, wee we're seeing it now. We're the last 2009 01:41:20,720 --> 01:41:22,760 Speaker 1: few games. Give him three to four plays. He can 2010 01:41:22,800 --> 01:41:24,840 Speaker 1: make an impact even with just that limited workload. I 2011 01:41:24,880 --> 01:41:27,960 Speaker 1: actually think that they've nailed it perfectly with his workload, 2012 01:41:28,000 --> 01:41:32,120 Speaker 1: where he is a gadget player on offense, right, Like, 2013 01:41:32,160 --> 01:41:34,040 Speaker 1: he's not a receiver. Okay, he's not going to go 2014 01:41:34,080 --> 01:41:36,559 Speaker 1: out there and run a route tree and break off 2015 01:41:36,640 --> 01:41:39,679 Speaker 1: leverage and read out coverages and like all this stuff 2016 01:41:39,720 --> 01:41:43,400 Speaker 1: that receivers do. But he's able to three to five 2017 01:41:43,439 --> 01:41:45,920 Speaker 1: plays a game, come on the field like Devin Hester 2018 01:41:46,080 --> 01:41:48,120 Speaker 1: used to do and make an impact. And that's great. 2019 01:41:48,240 --> 01:41:51,760 Speaker 1: And even if the impact is just disruption of the 2020 01:41:51,800 --> 01:41:54,120 Speaker 1: defensive read, you know, like, Okay, he's out here, we 2021 01:41:54,120 --> 01:41:56,600 Speaker 1: gotta pay attention to him, you know, to somebody, you know. 2022 01:41:56,720 --> 01:41:58,920 Speaker 1: That's fine, right, And I mean, and if this offensive 2023 01:41:58,960 --> 01:42:00,960 Speaker 1: coaching staff can figure out way to get him involved 2024 01:42:01,000 --> 01:42:02,600 Speaker 1: to make an impact, I mean, I'm sure that the 2025 01:42:02,640 --> 01:42:05,840 Speaker 1: continuing going down the road, other offensive coaches will be able, 2026 01:42:06,000 --> 01:42:08,200 Speaker 1: you know, to do the same. But he just I mean, 2027 01:42:08,479 --> 01:42:10,240 Speaker 1: he's too good. You need more players like that. You 2028 01:42:10,280 --> 01:42:12,800 Speaker 1: need players that can pull away from from guys like 2029 01:42:12,880 --> 01:42:15,439 Speaker 1: he can. I mean, the interception returned, diving, you know, 2030 01:42:15,520 --> 01:42:17,640 Speaker 1: jumping over guys, hurling players down the side. I mean, 2031 01:42:17,680 --> 01:42:20,000 Speaker 1: he's just a dynamic athlete. We need more guys like 2032 01:42:20,080 --> 01:42:23,599 Speaker 1: when you see him play like you're to your point. 2033 01:42:24,080 --> 01:42:27,000 Speaker 1: We just haven't seen a dynamic athlete like that in 2034 01:42:27,120 --> 01:42:29,680 Speaker 1: so long here that it is jarring, and it's like, 2035 01:42:30,280 --> 01:42:32,280 Speaker 1: so that's what it looks like. Right. When we talk 2036 01:42:32,320 --> 01:42:35,240 Speaker 1: about game breaking speed, we're not talking about you know, 2037 01:42:35,280 --> 01:42:38,040 Speaker 1: no offense. We're not talking about Nelson Aghalore, right, We're 2038 01:42:38,040 --> 01:42:41,799 Speaker 1: talking about that's game breaking speed right there, right, Travis 2039 01:42:41,800 --> 01:42:44,000 Speaker 1: and West Virginia. I would like to concur with the 2040 01:42:44,040 --> 01:42:46,320 Speaker 1: emailer who said there are a lot of repeat callers 2041 01:42:46,320 --> 01:42:48,400 Speaker 1: who really don't bring a whole lot to the table. 2042 01:42:48,760 --> 01:42:52,400 Speaker 1: Eldred and Sweet Kid excluded. Also, Fred, it makes me 2043 01:42:52,479 --> 01:42:56,080 Speaker 1: uncomfortable when you refer to Romandre Stevenson as Dre on 2044 01:42:56,120 --> 01:42:58,400 Speaker 1: the blog. It's tantamount to you showing up with an 2045 01:42:58,400 --> 01:43:01,320 Speaker 1: air ring tomorrow. It's just a place, it's bed. I 2046 01:43:01,320 --> 01:43:03,760 Speaker 1: don't want to have to write out Ramondre every time, 2047 01:43:03,920 --> 01:43:06,880 Speaker 1: you know, so I just say Dre, it's faster or 2048 01:43:07,880 --> 01:43:11,760 Speaker 1: maybe God, yeah, I might as well just do the 2049 01:43:11,840 --> 01:43:15,760 Speaker 1: row if I'm going to do, you know, I don't know. 2050 01:43:16,160 --> 01:43:18,120 Speaker 1: I just sometimes I like to shorten it up, like 2051 01:43:18,640 --> 01:43:20,920 Speaker 1: like I don't want to write Marcus Jones every time 2052 01:43:20,920 --> 01:43:23,640 Speaker 1: because there's so many Jones, so I'll just write Marcus, right. 2053 01:43:23,920 --> 01:43:30,120 Speaker 1: You know, we struggle as writers different basis with the Jones. Right, 2054 01:43:30,200 --> 01:43:32,280 Speaker 1: what are we supposed to do? Right? I had to 2055 01:43:32,479 --> 01:43:34,880 Speaker 1: somebody email into me a couple of weeks ago teaching 2056 01:43:34,920 --> 01:43:38,000 Speaker 1: me like how to spell out Jones is right, like 2057 01:43:38,080 --> 01:43:42,000 Speaker 1: not like apostrophes, Like it's the e s at the 2058 01:43:42,120 --> 01:43:44,439 Speaker 1: end of it over the playeral of Jones. You know, 2059 01:43:44,439 --> 01:43:45,760 Speaker 1: what's the other one? Fred? I wonder. I don't know 2060 01:43:45,800 --> 01:43:48,200 Speaker 1: if you've ever had this talk to some Patriot writers 2061 01:43:48,200 --> 01:43:51,760 Speaker 1: that do this a lot accidentally, Patritos getting like you know, 2062 01:43:51,800 --> 01:43:55,479 Speaker 1: when you're tightening like Patritos Patritos. Yeah, i'd think we 2063 01:43:55,520 --> 01:43:57,040 Speaker 1: would get like, you know, for all the for the 2064 01:43:57,080 --> 01:43:59,880 Speaker 1: writers get like Patritos chirts like you know, it's just 2065 01:44:00,040 --> 01:44:03,679 Speaker 1: something like Patritos. They got me again? Yeah? Absolutely. Dexter 2066 01:44:03,760 --> 01:44:07,000 Speaker 1: in Santa Rosa, California, back during Ravens Week, Bill was 2067 01:44:07,040 --> 01:44:09,519 Speaker 1: talking about Lamar Jackson during his media interview and he 2068 01:44:09,560 --> 01:44:11,920 Speaker 1: says something out of the ordinary, quote, I can't wait 2069 01:44:11,960 --> 01:44:15,479 Speaker 1: to see that contract. At the same at the time, 2070 01:44:15,520 --> 01:44:18,439 Speaker 1: we all collectively thought it was a slightly peculiar but 2071 01:44:18,600 --> 01:44:21,759 Speaker 1: nothing more. But now that our offense truly sucks beyond 2072 01:44:21,800 --> 01:44:24,479 Speaker 1: any doubt, I think Bill can't wait to see that 2073 01:44:24,560 --> 01:44:28,160 Speaker 1: contract because that contract will have a Patriot's logo at 2074 01:44:28,160 --> 01:44:31,160 Speaker 1: the top of the paper. Instead of going for a 2075 01:44:31,200 --> 01:44:33,479 Speaker 1: true number one wide receiver, why not get a true 2076 01:44:33,560 --> 01:44:36,240 Speaker 1: number one quarterback and sign Lamar and poach him from 2077 01:44:36,240 --> 01:44:39,360 Speaker 1: the Ravens this offseason. Would the fans, Craft and Bill 2078 01:44:39,439 --> 01:44:42,240 Speaker 1: be happy with Lamar signed for a max contract and 2079 01:44:42,280 --> 01:44:46,000 Speaker 1: bring in a real coordinator one can dream. I also 2080 01:44:46,320 --> 01:44:48,200 Speaker 1: hope we make it to the playoffs, so I'd rather 2081 01:44:48,240 --> 01:44:50,800 Speaker 1: have a chance, even if our odds are about point zero, 2082 01:44:50,880 --> 01:44:53,639 Speaker 1: zero zero or two percent chance of winning the Super 2083 01:44:53,680 --> 01:44:56,639 Speaker 1: Bowl this year. So you're saying there's a chance, I'm 2084 01:44:57,040 --> 01:45:01,320 Speaker 1: I'm terrified of them being able to if if they 2085 01:45:01,360 --> 01:45:03,519 Speaker 1: were to actually go out in Lamar, we're gonna actually 2086 01:45:03,520 --> 01:45:06,679 Speaker 1: play out this Lamar situation. I'm just terrified of them 2087 01:45:06,680 --> 01:45:08,519 Speaker 1: knowing what to do with the quarterback. Like you just said, 2088 01:45:08,520 --> 01:45:10,120 Speaker 1: the whole Greg Roman thing. I mean, that's what they'd 2089 01:45:10,160 --> 01:45:12,759 Speaker 1: have to do. Maybe Bill O'Brien does because of Deshaun Watson, 2090 01:45:12,920 --> 01:45:15,800 Speaker 1: but they're not really the same player like Lamar. You 2091 01:45:16,040 --> 01:45:19,400 Speaker 1: they run you know, their go to plays counterbash, which 2092 01:45:19,439 --> 01:45:22,759 Speaker 1: is a readoption counterplay with Lamar, and like it doesn't 2093 01:45:23,200 --> 01:45:25,640 Speaker 1: you have to know how to design these types of plays, right, 2094 01:45:25,680 --> 01:45:28,040 Speaker 1: they have guys coming in motion, they have three tight 2095 01:45:28,160 --> 01:45:30,639 Speaker 1: end packages, and you better have a guy like Mark 2096 01:45:30,680 --> 01:45:33,439 Speaker 1: Andrews too, right, you know, because it's just and you 2097 01:45:33,520 --> 01:45:35,800 Speaker 1: have to you know, you'd have to remake the whole. 2098 01:45:35,840 --> 01:45:38,840 Speaker 1: You really have to attack the middle of the field 2099 01:45:38,840 --> 01:45:40,719 Speaker 1: in the passing game because he's not a great thrower 2100 01:45:40,840 --> 01:45:43,720 Speaker 1: outside the numbers. So like that's why Mark Andrews is 2101 01:45:43,720 --> 01:45:45,360 Speaker 1: so valuable to him, is because he wins in the 2102 01:45:45,400 --> 01:45:47,360 Speaker 1: middle of the field. So like, you just have to 2103 01:45:47,360 --> 01:45:50,680 Speaker 1: completely build out an entirely different offense. And I just 2104 01:45:50,720 --> 01:45:53,000 Speaker 1: don't know if so just build buy himself a few 2105 01:45:53,000 --> 01:45:55,519 Speaker 1: more years if he brings the Lamar's assens and takes 2106 01:45:55,560 --> 01:45:57,439 Speaker 1: a while, I mean, you know, and I want to 2107 01:45:57,439 --> 01:45:59,360 Speaker 1: go back to something real quick for it is you know, 2108 01:45:59,360 --> 01:46:00,840 Speaker 1: I had to call her who said, you know, I'm 2109 01:46:00,840 --> 01:46:03,000 Speaker 1: willing to watch losing seasons with Bill, like, like, this 2110 01:46:03,200 --> 01:46:04,800 Speaker 1: is a whole other element. And I'm sure there are 2111 01:46:04,800 --> 01:46:06,760 Speaker 1: plenty of fans out there that just want to give 2112 01:46:06,760 --> 01:46:09,080 Speaker 1: Bill his due and let him walk, But the owners 2113 01:46:09,120 --> 01:46:12,120 Speaker 1: of the franchise have to like keep interest up and 2114 01:46:12,200 --> 01:46:14,559 Speaker 1: keep the energy up. And you know, as much as 2115 01:46:14,560 --> 01:46:16,320 Speaker 1: it might sound nice to some people to just give 2116 01:46:16,320 --> 01:46:17,960 Speaker 1: Bill his due and let him, you know, do whatever 2117 01:46:17,960 --> 01:46:19,360 Speaker 1: he wants over the last few years, like they gotta 2118 01:46:19,400 --> 01:46:21,120 Speaker 1: sell tickets, like they have to, like, you know, and 2119 01:46:21,360 --> 01:46:23,759 Speaker 1: a move like that, of course it's not gonna happen, 2120 01:46:23,840 --> 01:46:26,360 Speaker 1: but you know, something like that, that's well, that's what 2121 01:46:26,479 --> 01:46:29,560 Speaker 1: gets everybody back on board. Maybe, like like if you 2122 01:46:29,600 --> 01:46:31,960 Speaker 1: want a dream, it could be more realistic and say 2123 01:46:31,960 --> 01:46:34,800 Speaker 1: like DeAndre Hopkins maybe like you know, it's a number 2124 01:46:34,800 --> 01:46:38,400 Speaker 1: one receiver like that. I think that's far more realistic. 2125 01:46:38,400 --> 01:46:39,720 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're the Ravens, like, how do you 2126 01:46:39,760 --> 01:46:42,479 Speaker 1: just let that guy walk out the door? I just don't. 2127 01:46:42,720 --> 01:46:44,960 Speaker 1: Well you, I mean, like you said, you design your 2128 01:46:45,000 --> 01:46:47,200 Speaker 1: whole offense around him. Like I think that's probably why 2129 01:46:47,240 --> 01:46:49,599 Speaker 1: he's pushing his luck with it a little bit, because 2130 01:46:49,640 --> 01:46:51,760 Speaker 1: it's like, what are you gonna do. You're gonna get 2131 01:46:51,840 --> 01:46:53,240 Speaker 1: rid of me and then get rid of your whole 2132 01:46:53,280 --> 01:46:55,719 Speaker 1: offense and get you know, and completely start over on offense. 2133 01:46:55,760 --> 01:46:58,320 Speaker 1: It's right. I think the Ravens value continuity a lot, 2134 01:46:58,800 --> 01:47:02,160 Speaker 1: Nathan writes in catching up on all the content I 2135 01:47:02,200 --> 01:47:04,160 Speaker 1: missed this past week. So I apologize that this has 2136 01:47:04,160 --> 01:47:06,519 Speaker 1: already been brought up. But how much has this past 2137 01:47:06,560 --> 01:47:11,599 Speaker 1: season changed your overall opinion of coach Belichick? If at all? Um, 2138 01:47:12,680 --> 01:47:14,200 Speaker 1: I think he I think he made a bad call. 2139 01:47:14,280 --> 01:47:16,280 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I still think he's, you know, 2140 01:47:16,320 --> 01:47:19,320 Speaker 1: an outstanding coach. And you know I still want him. Yeah, 2141 01:47:19,320 --> 01:47:22,040 Speaker 1: I still you know, wanted to. I wish that, you know, 2142 01:47:22,120 --> 01:47:24,719 Speaker 1: you could continue to tap his experience and his knowledge, 2143 01:47:24,720 --> 01:47:27,479 Speaker 1: and you know, I just I for me, like we 2144 01:47:27,520 --> 01:47:30,439 Speaker 1: get into Patriots fans getting so worked up about everything, 2145 01:47:30,600 --> 01:47:33,200 Speaker 1: you know, just but when I hear other people in 2146 01:47:33,240 --> 01:47:36,759 Speaker 1: the NFL just talk in strictly football teams about Bill Belichick, 2147 01:47:36,880 --> 01:47:40,479 Speaker 1: just they get it, you know, Like like you can't 2148 01:47:40,520 --> 01:47:42,360 Speaker 1: tell me that, oh, he's an idiot. He doesn't like 2149 01:47:42,439 --> 01:47:44,479 Speaker 1: he is, Like I mean, at this point, he's a 2150 01:47:44,479 --> 01:47:46,680 Speaker 1: living legend as far as the NFL is concerned. So 2151 01:47:47,040 --> 01:47:49,120 Speaker 1: you know, I don't want that to be over. But 2152 01:47:49,360 --> 01:47:51,360 Speaker 1: this was a bad year. This is a bad year, 2153 01:47:51,439 --> 01:47:54,120 Speaker 1: and I don't really blame that. I'm tired of having 2154 01:47:54,160 --> 01:47:56,559 Speaker 1: the greatest coach for everyone. No, he's I mean, but 2155 01:47:56,640 --> 01:47:58,719 Speaker 1: you know, but these he's look, he's he can make mistakes. 2156 01:47:58,760 --> 01:48:00,240 Speaker 1: I mean, it's a hard That's what I want. I 2157 01:48:00,240 --> 01:48:02,120 Speaker 1: wanted to stay and I want him to admit I 2158 01:48:02,200 --> 01:48:04,920 Speaker 1: gotta do something different, that's it. Yeah, I want him 2159 01:48:04,920 --> 01:48:08,680 Speaker 1: to admit it. Yeah, And I this is exactly, this 2160 01:48:08,760 --> 01:48:10,800 Speaker 1: is exactly what I was talking about to you guys 2161 01:48:10,800 --> 01:48:15,240 Speaker 1: off the air. Maybe we need some accountability. Yeah, and 2162 01:48:15,280 --> 01:48:18,160 Speaker 1: I think that maybe we get it. Maybe if we're lucky, 2163 01:48:18,240 --> 01:48:21,560 Speaker 1: we'll get it. After the season's officially over, right, And 2164 01:48:22,439 --> 01:48:25,559 Speaker 1: usually that next day press conference he always goes back on, 2165 01:48:25,720 --> 01:48:27,960 Speaker 1: well we just got off the field. Yes, right, guys, 2166 01:48:28,080 --> 01:48:30,040 Speaker 1: you know what are we talking about? But at some 2167 01:48:30,120 --> 01:48:32,880 Speaker 1: point in time, and it could be that he never 2168 01:48:32,960 --> 01:48:35,120 Speaker 1: actually comes out and says it, but they just hire 2169 01:48:35,160 --> 01:48:39,519 Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien and I will speak louder than the words, right. Yeah. Also, Fred, 2170 01:48:39,560 --> 01:48:42,040 Speaker 1: I remember earlier this season when you said you were 2171 01:48:42,080 --> 01:48:45,720 Speaker 1: feeling bullish about the offense. How times have changed. This 2172 01:48:45,760 --> 01:48:49,120 Speaker 1: isn't criticism. I completely bought into your theory back then. 2173 01:48:49,640 --> 01:48:51,880 Speaker 1: I was wrong. In the beginning of the season. I 2174 01:48:51,920 --> 01:48:53,920 Speaker 1: was more worried about the defense. In the offense, I 2175 01:48:53,960 --> 01:48:56,920 Speaker 1: felt they had the tools on offense to be good, 2176 01:48:57,080 --> 01:49:00,240 Speaker 1: not great good. And I was worried about the defense 2177 01:49:00,320 --> 01:49:03,320 Speaker 1: because you know, you lost J. C. Jackson, who was 2178 01:49:03,360 --> 01:49:05,600 Speaker 1: going to emerge, you know, ouch, we didn't know what 2179 01:49:05,640 --> 01:49:07,600 Speaker 1: we're gonna get out of him. We didn't know. We 2180 01:49:07,600 --> 01:49:10,559 Speaker 1: didn't know if Judon, if the fade was real, if 2181 01:49:10,640 --> 01:49:11,960 Speaker 1: you know, how he was gonna you know, so there 2182 01:49:12,000 --> 01:49:15,160 Speaker 1: were to me, there were a lot more questions going 2183 01:49:15,200 --> 01:49:17,960 Speaker 1: in on defense. You know, on offense, I was excited 2184 01:49:18,000 --> 01:49:20,000 Speaker 1: about having Parker. I thought he was only going to 2185 01:49:20,080 --> 01:49:22,680 Speaker 1: make the offense better Mac Jones in his second year, 2186 01:49:22,760 --> 01:49:26,479 Speaker 1: and I was wrong. You know, flip it, it's the opposite. Now. 2187 01:49:26,520 --> 01:49:29,720 Speaker 1: The defense is the only reason you're competitive, Yeah, you know. 2188 01:49:29,720 --> 01:49:32,360 Speaker 1: And also you know, throw in the opponents that we 2189 01:49:32,360 --> 01:49:34,120 Speaker 1: were looking at, and I mean we're in at the 2190 01:49:34,120 --> 01:49:35,840 Speaker 1: tail end of this gauntlet that they've been going through 2191 01:49:35,840 --> 01:49:39,000 Speaker 1: where every week it's another top receiver. I mean, I 2192 01:49:39,080 --> 01:49:40,720 Speaker 1: was with you, Fred, and I think you know we 2193 01:49:40,760 --> 01:49:43,040 Speaker 1: all agree. I still think the offense is better than 2194 01:49:43,040 --> 01:49:47,080 Speaker 1: it's showing up talent. I think they're underperforming absolutely. You know, 2195 01:49:47,280 --> 01:49:49,600 Speaker 1: the attention to detail on offenses what bugs me the 2196 01:49:49,640 --> 01:49:53,480 Speaker 1: most since not only is it from a situational standpoint, 2197 01:49:53,520 --> 01:49:56,400 Speaker 1: like knowing the play when they checked to a screen 2198 01:49:56,479 --> 01:49:58,800 Speaker 1: on a blitz by, also like the route running that 2199 01:49:58,840 --> 01:50:02,000 Speaker 1: I've been talking about a lot, spacing, the actual technique 2200 01:50:02,000 --> 01:50:04,559 Speaker 1: of the route like put I got into it yesterday 2201 01:50:04,560 --> 01:50:06,720 Speaker 1: on Twitter about the stupid play action pass and I 2202 01:50:06,720 --> 01:50:10,320 Speaker 1: wish I've been I've been trying to walk away more 2203 01:50:10,400 --> 01:50:13,600 Speaker 1: this season, and I got into it with everybody on 2204 01:50:13,720 --> 01:50:16,400 Speaker 1: it and they're like, he's late, He's late to the throw, 2205 01:50:16,439 --> 01:50:19,240 Speaker 1: and it's like, that's because when Jacoby Myers comes off 2206 01:50:19,240 --> 01:50:21,800 Speaker 1: the line, he gives a little hop step, then he 2207 01:50:21,840 --> 01:50:24,200 Speaker 1: gives like six head fakes, and then he decides to 2208 01:50:24,240 --> 01:50:26,479 Speaker 1: actually break on the route. Like the amount of time 2209 01:50:26,520 --> 01:50:28,960 Speaker 1: it takes for these guys to actually get into the 2210 01:50:29,080 --> 01:50:33,320 Speaker 1: route and declare if they're breaking inside or out based 2211 01:50:33,360 --> 01:50:36,320 Speaker 1: off of the option that they have is it's the 2212 01:50:36,320 --> 01:50:38,880 Speaker 1: timing of the whole thing is such a major issue. 2213 01:50:38,880 --> 01:50:42,200 Speaker 1: And that, to me is why I'm disappointed in Belichick 2214 01:50:42,640 --> 01:50:45,160 Speaker 1: is because that type of quality control stuff, I thought 2215 01:50:45,200 --> 01:50:49,559 Speaker 1: he would have his fingerprints on. Right. So, okay, maybe 2216 01:50:49,960 --> 01:50:53,040 Speaker 1: you know a wide receiving core of DeVante Parker and 2217 01:50:53,120 --> 01:50:55,840 Speaker 1: Jacoby Myers and born in Agalore and the two times 2218 01:50:55,840 --> 01:50:58,479 Speaker 1: maybe that's not an elite passing attack, and maybe Max's 2219 01:50:58,520 --> 01:51:02,439 Speaker 1: not an elite quarterback, but everything would be buttoned up right, 2220 01:51:02,560 --> 01:51:05,160 Speaker 1: and it's so far from buttoned up that now they're 2221 01:51:05,400 --> 01:51:08,519 Speaker 1: they're underperforming right this group. Yes, And that's I'd tie 2222 01:51:08,560 --> 01:51:10,599 Speaker 1: that to the last question too, which is that the 2223 01:51:10,600 --> 01:51:13,400 Speaker 1: thing that's distressed distressing about this all is you know, 2224 01:51:13,439 --> 01:51:14,920 Speaker 1: just the things that you've come to believe about a 2225 01:51:14,960 --> 01:51:16,840 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick coach team that they're you know, not going 2226 01:51:16,920 --> 01:51:19,080 Speaker 1: to take a bunch of prestap stupid penalties, that they 2227 01:51:19,080 --> 01:51:21,400 Speaker 1: are going to be hammering down on the details that 2228 01:51:21,640 --> 01:51:23,120 Speaker 1: you know, those are the things that they're going to 2229 01:51:23,200 --> 01:51:25,840 Speaker 1: do to overcome the talent gap. But you know, I 2230 01:51:25,840 --> 01:51:27,360 Speaker 1: think going in the season, you know, Fred and I 2231 01:51:27,400 --> 01:51:29,880 Speaker 1: were like, well, I mean, if you if you're able 2232 01:51:29,960 --> 01:51:32,040 Speaker 1: to tap down in the cornerback depth and you've got 2233 01:51:32,040 --> 01:51:34,320 Speaker 1: you know, Jacobe Meyers lined up against their number three 2234 01:51:34,439 --> 01:51:36,160 Speaker 1: or then before like you know, you got Hunter Henry 2235 01:51:36,160 --> 01:51:37,920 Speaker 1: and he started like you know, you felt like you 2236 01:51:37,960 --> 01:51:39,600 Speaker 1: had some options that you could at least play with 2237 01:51:39,640 --> 01:51:42,160 Speaker 1: even without that big number one fret those matchups and 2238 01:51:42,200 --> 01:51:44,719 Speaker 1: the other thing I was wrong on And I honestly 2239 01:51:44,760 --> 01:51:48,600 Speaker 1: thought that having Judge in Patricia on offense wasn't a 2240 01:51:48,600 --> 01:51:51,400 Speaker 1: bad thing. That they would be okay, you know, because 2241 01:51:51,400 --> 01:51:54,479 Speaker 1: they had that overall experience seeing a team from the 2242 01:51:54,560 --> 01:51:57,439 Speaker 1: highest level, and they take that experience to you know, 2243 01:51:57,439 --> 01:52:00,200 Speaker 1: their new jobs. And you know, I don't know how 2244 01:52:00,200 --> 01:52:03,000 Speaker 1: good a job Joe Judge is doing, honestly, Like how 2245 01:52:03,000 --> 01:52:05,200 Speaker 1: do you even know? But like you know, Mac isn't 2246 01:52:05,200 --> 01:52:08,479 Speaker 1: doing well, so then he's the quarterback coach. Ergo, he 2247 01:52:08,560 --> 01:52:10,679 Speaker 1: must not be, you know, so like it's hard to tell. 2248 01:52:10,760 --> 01:52:13,880 Speaker 1: But I was wrong there too, you know, just going 2249 01:52:13,960 --> 01:52:16,080 Speaker 1: back to training camp with Joe Judge because I think 2250 01:52:16,080 --> 01:52:18,800 Speaker 1: it's an interesting question of how involved is he and 2251 01:52:19,040 --> 01:52:22,040 Speaker 1: how much should we blame him for what's going on. 2252 01:52:22,080 --> 01:52:26,240 Speaker 1: But remember out at camp, they because Matt Patricia was 2253 01:52:26,280 --> 01:52:29,240 Speaker 1: working with the offensive line so much, it did seem 2254 01:52:29,320 --> 01:52:31,760 Speaker 1: like that Joe Judge was kind of the passing game 2255 01:52:31,800 --> 01:52:34,720 Speaker 1: coordinator for a period of time there. And then we 2256 01:52:34,720 --> 01:52:37,200 Speaker 1: were just out at practice just now and they allowed 2257 01:52:37,240 --> 01:52:39,200 Speaker 1: us to watch just a little bit of extra practice 2258 01:52:39,240 --> 01:52:43,320 Speaker 1: and Joe Judge was working with the quarterbacks and receivers, 2259 01:52:43,320 --> 01:52:45,120 Speaker 1: and Matt Patricia was on the other side with the 2260 01:52:45,160 --> 01:52:49,360 Speaker 1: offensive lineman, so I think from it now, they were 2261 01:52:49,360 --> 01:52:51,920 Speaker 1: throwing against air, so it's not like they're actually getting 2262 01:52:51,960 --> 01:52:55,280 Speaker 1: into real offense at that point. But it is interesting 2263 01:52:55,320 --> 01:52:58,360 Speaker 1: that the guy coaching up the little details of what's 2264 01:52:58,400 --> 01:53:02,040 Speaker 1: going on from a from a passing games standpoint was 2265 01:53:02,200 --> 01:53:05,960 Speaker 1: Joe Judge, It wasn't Matt Patricia, right, Bob writes, and 2266 01:53:06,040 --> 01:53:09,160 Speaker 1: has Bill ever replaced a coordinator before the coordinator left 2267 01:53:09,200 --> 01:53:11,599 Speaker 1: on their own. It seems that nobody has ever been 2268 01:53:11,680 --> 01:53:14,439 Speaker 1: fired or released, only leaving for a head coaching gig. 2269 01:53:14,880 --> 01:53:17,720 Speaker 1: That's the case, then we're going to watch Patricia's send 2270 01:53:17,800 --> 01:53:20,320 Speaker 1: in plays for a long time. No team's going to 2271 01:53:20,360 --> 01:53:22,400 Speaker 1: be knocking on his door for a head coaching job 2272 01:53:22,439 --> 01:53:25,120 Speaker 1: anytime soon. All we can do is put faith into 2273 01:53:25,200 --> 01:53:29,160 Speaker 1: Bill's decisions and hopefully they work out like they mostly do. Um. 2274 01:53:29,840 --> 01:53:34,320 Speaker 1: I'm not sure Hessey ever, Yeah, Dave Googs, but the 2275 01:53:34,560 --> 01:53:38,280 Speaker 1: offensive line coach. You've only had two offensive coordinators three sorry, 2276 01:53:38,320 --> 01:53:41,559 Speaker 1: three offensive coordinators in twenty years, and defensive corners three two. 2277 01:53:41,640 --> 01:53:44,880 Speaker 1: I think what Cornell Demps and Dean Pace is the 2278 01:53:44,920 --> 01:53:49,400 Speaker 1: other guys four. Sorry for DMP's just kind of disappeared. Yeah, honestly, 2279 01:53:49,680 --> 01:53:52,280 Speaker 1: they still but has gone on to coach. No, he's 2280 01:53:52,280 --> 01:53:55,080 Speaker 1: a good coach. I'm just saying, right, I don't think 2281 01:53:55,120 --> 01:53:58,120 Speaker 1: that the word firing never leaves this building, right, Like, 2282 01:53:58,200 --> 01:54:00,240 Speaker 1: you're never going to hear a report of like so 2283 01:54:00,439 --> 01:54:02,800 Speaker 1: and so got fired by Bill Belichick because they're very 2284 01:54:02,840 --> 01:54:05,680 Speaker 1: careful about how they word it. But Dean Peace just 2285 01:54:05,960 --> 01:54:09,799 Speaker 1: faded into dust right after twelve, after the twelve eleven 2286 01:54:09,920 --> 01:54:13,840 Speaker 1: or twelve. Yeah, and he goes to m Ravens, right 2287 01:54:14,200 --> 01:54:16,960 Speaker 1: the Ravens and then and then subsequently beat us and 2288 01:54:17,200 --> 01:54:19,680 Speaker 1: and Patricia takes over the defense at that point. So 2289 01:54:20,520 --> 01:54:23,759 Speaker 1: they've definitely it hasn't been a ton, but they've definitely 2290 01:54:23,840 --> 01:54:26,719 Speaker 1: had guys that have just you know, Googs was probably 2291 01:54:26,760 --> 01:54:29,400 Speaker 1: the best example of somebody that was truly fired after 2292 01:54:29,479 --> 01:54:31,559 Speaker 1: that season, and it was also because Dante came back. 2293 01:54:31,800 --> 01:54:35,760 Speaker 1: So yeah, I remember seeing Googs. That was like probably 2294 01:54:35,800 --> 01:54:37,720 Speaker 1: the last game of the season. We're in Miami and 2295 01:54:38,240 --> 01:54:40,760 Speaker 1: I'm walking down the street and he's like in front 2296 01:54:40,800 --> 01:54:43,000 Speaker 1: of this restaurant with some people. I'm like, hey, Googs, 2297 01:54:43,040 --> 01:54:44,480 Speaker 1: I'll see you next year. He goes, I don't know, 2298 01:54:45,720 --> 01:54:49,400 Speaker 1: so he knew the writing was on the wall, knew 2299 01:54:49,880 --> 01:54:51,920 Speaker 1: was on the wall. He was a good guy, though, 2300 01:54:52,320 --> 01:54:55,800 Speaker 1: um Tony writes in um, so maybe it's time for 2301 01:54:55,920 --> 01:54:59,440 Speaker 1: coach to make new friends, bringing outsiders instead of grooming 2302 01:54:59,440 --> 01:55:02,680 Speaker 1: guys who are gophers, taking him to the airport, getting coffee, 2303 01:55:02,920 --> 01:55:06,520 Speaker 1: breaking down film, then unpaid assistance, then assistance to the 2304 01:55:06,560 --> 01:55:10,360 Speaker 1: assistant regional manager and office reference, then assistant coach then 2305 01:55:10,440 --> 01:55:14,000 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. Yeah, I mean there is something to 2306 01:55:14,080 --> 01:55:18,080 Speaker 1: be said, Like, you know, when you get into the 2307 01:55:18,160 --> 01:55:20,920 Speaker 1: psyche of who Bill Belichick is, you know his his 2308 01:55:21,840 --> 01:55:24,520 Speaker 1: you know what makes him in what he thinks he 2309 01:55:24,680 --> 01:55:27,720 Speaker 1: looks for in other people. I think a lot of 2310 01:55:27,800 --> 01:55:30,160 Speaker 1: it is he the way he rose up, is the 2311 01:55:30,240 --> 01:55:32,200 Speaker 1: way he likes other people that rose up. You know, 2312 01:55:32,360 --> 01:55:34,920 Speaker 1: he famously talks about making twenty five dollars a week 2313 01:55:34,960 --> 01:55:37,440 Speaker 1: and sleeping on the floor in Baltimore, you know when 2314 01:55:37,480 --> 01:55:41,160 Speaker 1: he worked for the Colts, and you know, like he 2315 01:55:41,320 --> 01:55:44,640 Speaker 1: wants other people to kind of go through those steps 2316 01:55:45,120 --> 01:55:47,800 Speaker 1: as well. It seems, you know, he likes that where 2317 01:55:47,800 --> 01:55:51,000 Speaker 1: you start as low level and you kind of learn 2318 01:55:51,400 --> 01:55:53,920 Speaker 1: a lot. You don't just learn one thing about the team. 2319 01:55:53,960 --> 01:55:56,880 Speaker 1: You learn a lot of things and then eventually you're 2320 01:55:56,920 --> 01:55:59,720 Speaker 1: given a position. I think out where Barbelio was before this, 2321 01:55:59,840 --> 01:56:01,560 Speaker 1: but I mean he he would have been kind of 2322 01:56:01,600 --> 01:56:03,480 Speaker 1: around a little bit. I mean still kind of came 2323 01:56:03,560 --> 01:56:05,200 Speaker 1: in as like an offensive. He came in and they 2324 01:56:05,240 --> 01:56:07,720 Speaker 1: wouldn't give him a He didn't get the title right away, 2325 01:56:08,200 --> 01:56:11,160 Speaker 1: you know, um, yeah, that was there. There have been 2326 01:56:11,240 --> 01:56:13,600 Speaker 1: cases where they always just like this, like twenty three 2327 01:56:13,680 --> 01:56:17,800 Speaker 1: year old kid right out of school that you graduates, Yeah, 2328 01:56:17,960 --> 01:56:20,800 Speaker 1: like it's it's you still find something googly elbows one 2329 01:56:20,840 --> 01:56:23,600 Speaker 1: of those examples, and then they didn't. I just think 2330 01:56:23,640 --> 01:56:27,680 Speaker 1: that O'Brien to me, and that's why I love it 2331 01:56:27,760 --> 01:56:31,120 Speaker 1: so much. As for them, is because he's not a pushover. Right, 2332 01:56:31,200 --> 01:56:33,280 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. He's not a yes man, just because 2333 01:56:33,360 --> 01:56:35,720 Speaker 1: he's got ties to Bill and he's got options to 2334 01:56:35,800 --> 01:56:37,720 Speaker 1: go anywhere that he wants. Not anywhere, but a lot 2335 01:56:37,800 --> 01:56:40,120 Speaker 1: of places that he would want to go. So if 2336 01:56:40,520 --> 01:56:42,320 Speaker 1: Bill's telling him to do one thing and he doesn't 2337 01:56:42,320 --> 01:56:43,600 Speaker 1: want to do it, he doesn't have to be here, 2338 01:56:43,720 --> 01:56:46,680 Speaker 1: ye right. And the second thing I would just say is, 2339 01:56:46,960 --> 01:56:51,280 Speaker 1: you know, I just want Bill to take an approach 2340 01:56:51,560 --> 01:56:54,680 Speaker 1: that Nick Saban has taken in recent years where he 2341 01:56:54,880 --> 01:56:57,440 Speaker 1: knows he's defense, right, Like, Nick Saban knows that his 2342 01:56:57,520 --> 01:56:59,720 Speaker 1: strength is on the defensive side of the ball. So 2343 01:57:00,120 --> 01:57:04,240 Speaker 1: on offense, he's getting name brand coordinators. He's not messing around, right. 2344 01:57:04,280 --> 01:57:07,760 Speaker 1: He goes from Lane Kiffin to Sarkisian to Bill O'Brien, 2345 01:57:08,000 --> 01:57:11,280 Speaker 1: and he's getting guys that are basically head coaches of 2346 01:57:11,360 --> 01:57:13,800 Speaker 1: your offense, right like, and that's what Josh was when 2347 01:57:13,840 --> 01:57:16,360 Speaker 1: he was here. So I don't think it necessarily needs 2348 01:57:16,400 --> 01:57:18,880 Speaker 1: to be branching out from the tree, so to speak. 2349 01:57:19,080 --> 01:57:21,320 Speaker 1: He just needs to get somebody that has that type 2350 01:57:21,360 --> 01:57:23,320 Speaker 1: of metal. Yeah, he's a filth head coach too. We 2351 01:57:23,400 --> 01:57:27,680 Speaker 1: love those, yeah, sure. M Pat will end the show 2352 01:57:27,760 --> 01:57:33,240 Speaker 1: with Patrick pat an Agawam's email us.
