This is Patriot's Unfiltered, fueled by Duncan. 18 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 1: All right, Welcome to Patriots Unfiltered. It is Thursday here 19 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: at chi Let's Stadium, and it's a big show. For us, 20 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 1: it's it's deuce, it's tomorrow, it's Paul, it's myself. Alex 21 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,039 Speaker 1: is going to call in from Palm Beach University or 22 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:34,119 Speaker 1: Palm Beach Coast Atlantic, something like Palm Beach Atlantic University, 23 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,039 Speaker 1: Palm Beach Atlantic University, a mouthful. So I did a 24 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 1: little research, Fred, I know this was the utmost importance. 25 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,680 Speaker 1: I did not play there. Oh you didn't know. I 26 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: talked to my boys and we came up with all 27 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: about Paul. You came up with a bunch of different 28 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: places in that general vicinity. This was not one of them. Okay, 29 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 1: all right. Anyway, and Matt's in the booth um. So 30 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: we've got all that to talk about. Plus picks, our 31 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: first pick show one last year. I have that. Yeah, 32 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: we'll talk, we get that, we'll get to that. We 33 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: have to. Yeah, I brought. I brought last season's results 34 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 1: just as a refresher. Nice, nice Dan. All right. Um, 35 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 1: So Patriots had their first official practice yesterday down there, 36 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 1: and all the media but could talk about was like that, 37 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: this isn't a football facility. Yeah, okay, Well it's tough 38 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,959 Speaker 1: to find a football facility that's not being used during 39 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: football season, correct, also, to be fair, there are college 40 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: games now being played in baseball like fields right now. 41 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: Like I remember, I think it was actually I'm gonna 42 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 1: bring up Notre Dame. They had their Shamrock series in Fenway. Yeah, 43 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: so what happens, Yeah, it happens that the shot of 44 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 1: the goal post that I mean that was yeah, I 45 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: mean that's you know, they don't have goal posts, they 46 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:52,679 Speaker 1: don't have a football, they don't need goal posts. So 47 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 1: they Patriots put together a goal post. So it looked 48 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: like a throwback. It looked like, yeah, maybe h put 49 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,239 Speaker 1: that to other in May and you know, a bullshit mission, 50 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:06,799 Speaker 1: no purchase them. But you know, like you know, while 51 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: we were doing our show, Beatle and Zoe had four 52 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: hours on if is this a good idea? Like does 53 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: it really matter like whether they win or loot? You know, 54 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: it's it's like maybe Belichick wanted another opportunity for team bonding. 55 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,519 Speaker 1: You know, there's a lot of new faces and yeah, 56 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: some of the guys talking about that today being asked 57 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 1: about you know, being away. We're talking to Paul, I 58 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: mean some of the you know, older players that have 59 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 1: kids and families and you were just in Vegas for 60 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: a week. And you're back for you know, a handful 61 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: of days, and then you're back on the road for 62 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: another week. So I think those things are challenging. David Andrews, 63 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: I know, saying in his press conference today that you know, 64 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: it's all about football. We're focused. So you know, I'm 65 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: not I'm not going to kill them if they, you know, 66 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: happen to lose the game. I think for me, it's 67 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 1: just about you know, starting well and playing relatively clean. 68 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 1: I mean, it's a it's a theme that I'll be 69 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: hitting on right through the pregame show. But you know, 70 00:03:57,920 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: if they come out and they and they look ready 71 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: to play, oh my god, that's a lot to look forward. 72 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: Just don't fumble it, got stop fumbling it, um, you know. 73 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: So I just I just hope that, like you know, 74 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: you don't want to make too much out of like 75 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: this being well that was unnecessary because they lost the game, 76 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: like you know, But I do think that if they 77 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 1: don't come out strong and they don't look focused from 78 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:21,160 Speaker 1: the get go, and they don't look like a team 79 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: that took extra strides to make sure that they start 80 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: on time and you know, play at least a reasonably 81 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 1: clean football game, for a week one that you know, 82 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,039 Speaker 1: that to me will be kind of the sign of 83 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: like maybe this was other than the money it costs, 84 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: and it's not our money. So what a week here? 85 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 1: I mean, let's say they didn't do this, they did 86 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 1: the same thing they always do. Maybe they go down 87 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,599 Speaker 1: on Friday and they lose again. All right, you know, 88 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: same thing. You know, they lost again in Miami. You 89 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: know what. No one would say they should have gotten 90 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: down on Tuesday. No, they shouldn't. But but at least 91 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: they're you know, they're trying something. Yeah, you know, so 92 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: you try something. If it doesn't work, you don't do 93 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: it again. Yeah, I'm with Deuce. I don't think it work. 94 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: So it doesn't work. I don't think it's you know, 95 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: it has hard itself to what I I'm much more 96 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 1: concerned with the things that that Mike brought up, you know, like, yeah, 97 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,280 Speaker 1: you're away in Las Vegas for a week, like you 98 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: sort of like check off the days training camp. Okay, 99 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 1: so yeah, it's a little it's it's outside of our 100 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: normal routine. We're not seeing our families as much as 101 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 1: we normally do. But when training camps over, things get 102 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: back to normal. But wait, we got to go to 103 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 1: Las Vegas for a week. Okay, that's understandable. And you 104 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 1: know we we we often have these joint practices. So 105 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 1: that's that's, that's part part for the course. That's what 106 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: We'll wait a minute, and you know before week one 107 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,479 Speaker 1: we're gonna go away for another week. So like the 108 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: whole team bonding thing, I think can go the other 109 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: way in a hurry, like I can't. I'm not sure 110 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 1: how it just gets how much team bonding you get 111 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 1: from dressing in a hotel a half hour away from 112 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: the soccer field that you're you're practicing in that does 113 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:55,600 Speaker 1: not look suitable for professional athletes to be on just 114 00:05:55,800 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: visually looks like my yard. Um, I mean you see 115 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 1: all the browns. Do you ever see brown spots of 116 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:06,679 Speaker 1: grass in Florida? Like, I've never seen that. Florida grass 117 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 1: is different than grass we have up here. Anyway. It's 118 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: usually green because it's constantly watered. Yeah, but no, but 119 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: it's also a thicker type of grass. I know what 120 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: you're talking about. But I mean that's you know, usually 121 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 1: athletic fields don't have that grass. But again, I'm not 122 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 1: gonna this one probably does it might I don't know. 123 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 1: It's all brown. I know that where we used to 124 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 1: I used to go to school in Tampa, and you know, 125 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 1: we go down to the park and play football. And 126 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 1: if you see like a brown dirt hill, do not 127 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: sit on it because it's a red ant hill and 128 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: they will bite the hell out of you. If you 129 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: told everybody that before they went down. Yeah, they were 130 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 1: all They're all over friends here, They're all over the places. 131 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 1: So I do have I have some questions as to 132 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: you know, but the logistics of it all and it 133 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: and it kind of you know, started when I read 134 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 1: Mike Greece on Sunday saying him openly wondering, if Bill 135 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: had to do it over again, given the humidity and 136 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: heat that they practiced in all summer, what do you 137 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 1: have done it differently? That to me is not like 138 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 1: Mike Reiss just saying off the top of his head. 139 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: I think Mike Reese might have some information there that 140 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 1: he's sort of thrown out there. Now again, it's not 141 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: going to be why they lose. If they don't win, 142 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: that's not because they're down there. And if they do win, 143 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: it's not because they're down there. They're gonna play better 144 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: like Mike says, they're not gonna give up an Needyard 145 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: touchdown drive and follow it up with a pick six 146 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: like they did the last time they played down there. 147 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 1: If they win, that's probably not going to happen, right, 148 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: they'll play better. Yeah, I will say, the weather here 149 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: right now, especially today, is much different than it is 150 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: in Florida. Right now. It's like sixty degrees right now. 151 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 1: But I'll tell you, dodging that Romstein set up, I 152 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: kind of get that part of it today when we're 153 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 1: like watching out for forklifts and giant boxes. And I 154 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: think that's the reason why there. You know, Fred brought 155 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: that up yesterday to you and I were talking about it, 156 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 1: and I think, just get out of Dodge. There's a 157 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: lot of crap going on here right now. Well that's 158 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 1: what I was thinking too, just every day them walking 159 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: through there, having the get right through this area where 160 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: all the loading dock is and all these crew members 161 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: and everything. So yeah, I mean it's a little thing. 162 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 1: You get out to the field, it's quiet. So I mean, 163 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 1: I don't, you know, I'm not like, oh, this is 164 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: so distracting, how could they possibly deal with this? But um, 165 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: you know, it's just I think they've been taking a 166 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: lot of flak for it, so hopefully it translates into 167 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,679 Speaker 1: but I think it is is it too much flak? 168 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: I like, are we making too big a deal about this? 169 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: That's what I'm wondering, Like either way, like this is 170 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: a great idea or what are they doing? Like? Either way, 171 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: are we making too big a deal? I gotta I 172 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: gotta be honest. I mean, I said the Paul upstairs, 173 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: and like nobody's a bigger fan of like you know, 174 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: interesting coaching moves and we gotta get bonding and you know, 175 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,560 Speaker 1: try to you know, get this team together. I love 176 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff, you know. For me, this is 177 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:44,959 Speaker 1: just it's right now, it's feeling like a lot. It's 178 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: feeling like a lot, even going down to today having 179 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: to move practice because a thunderstorm, so you know, it's 180 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,239 Speaker 1: like even down there, they're you know, having an adjusting 181 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 1: So it feels like a lot. To me, it feels 182 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 1: like a lot of effort for hopefully what, you know, 183 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: you get some kind of tangible result that you know 184 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: you're you're looking for. Um. But I think people are 185 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 1: spending too much time on it like this. If this 186 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,320 Speaker 1: was reverse, and the Dolphins had came up here on 187 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 1: Tuesday versus Saturday or whatever day they came. I feel 188 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 1: like it would barely make the headlines. Well, I don't know. 189 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: I think Patriots fans would kill them. I think it 190 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 1: would be an absolute major chess checkers there right already. 191 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: I know our fans and we would be you see, 192 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: he's wearing sleeves. Friend, it's like you weren't here tomorrow. 193 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 1: But do you hear that Houston Texans came and they 194 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 1: decided we're gonna wear varsity football jackets and our fans 195 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: it didn't go well, It didn't go well. We spoiler 196 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: alert didn't work. But like anything other teams do that 197 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 1: are out of the norm. We we assume that it's 198 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: because we're in their head. How many times have we heard, 199 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: you know, when they come up here in December and 200 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 1: they come out for walms you know, Steve Nelson always 201 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: tells the story. They come out for walm ups, they 202 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:54,439 Speaker 1: have no sleeves on. They come out for the game, 203 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,319 Speaker 1: they have sleeves on. We know we had them. It 204 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: was over. We're in their heads, right, It's and you 205 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: know what, it's probably not wrong because if you think 206 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: like that. There's probably something to it. I know if 207 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: I was playing, I'd want to be as warm as possible. 208 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: Me too, but you know I'm a little frail. Why 209 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 1: why would Why do I have to battle being cold 210 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,559 Speaker 1: in addition to battling the other team. I don't be 211 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: a hero. Just just be warm, right, happy, maximize yourself. 212 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,199 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean that's been a big advantage. We 213 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 1: would intentionally leave the snow on the slot to matter. 214 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 1: These are these are real things. I'm not I'm not 215 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: making this stuff up. Fred will back me up. Oh yeah, 216 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: we intentionally leave leave the snow on the sideline when 217 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 1: we're playing like a southern team or a warm weather team. 218 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: So when they come up here and like, do you 219 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: remember Arizona that year? Oh yeah, Kurt Warner looked like 220 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: you wanted to be anywhere on the planet other than 221 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,199 Speaker 1: lost the game. The moment they stepped up, they lost 222 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,199 Speaker 1: the game. It was over this. If that happened in 223 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,319 Speaker 1: college football, like someone say Alabama came up to play 224 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: Ohio State in the middle of December and that happened, 225 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: it would be yeah. Well, I mean there's an old story. 226 00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: Russ France has had his helicopter license. And one day 227 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 1: it was you know, I don't know if the Jets 228 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 1: were in town or something like that, and they had 229 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 1: done what Paul said. It was the old Fox World stadium. 230 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 1: They piled all the snow around the side. Well actually 231 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: the snow was still on the field and everything, and 232 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 1: so Russ Francis buzzes over the stadium and his helicopter 233 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 1: and he goes, oh, I'll clean off the field for 234 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 1: the team. And he goes in with his the helicopter 235 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 1: low and the propellers blow all the snow to the side, 236 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: and Patrick Sullivan comes running out like what do you 237 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: do when we want it on the field so that 238 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,319 Speaker 1: they see it. It wasn't the Jet. It must have 239 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: been some southern team, but he got in trouble for 240 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 1: clearing the field with his helicopter. It's funny. There's always 241 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,839 Speaker 1: little Shenanians going on, and it's you know, it's a 242 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: certain point though, it's like all the Shenanigans. It's like, 243 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: let's just line up and play and practice. And I mean, 244 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 1: I think there's also just like a fatigue right now 245 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: of the summer and you know, all the different the 246 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,679 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator stuff and just the storylines that we've just 247 00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,319 Speaker 1: been talking and talking and now it's like kind of 248 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: a new little treats up of like oh now they're there, 249 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:04,719 Speaker 1: and I mean, we have something else that I have 250 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 1: something else to talk about it. That's what I said 251 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: to you yesterday. I think people were just tired of 252 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: coordinator talk because if they were here, they'd be all right, 253 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 1: who was there? Who wasn't? This is just kind of 254 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: weak one, nothing really to say. I mean, I gotta 255 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,959 Speaker 1: admit Felger and Mats were cracking me up yesterday with 256 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: you know, they playing the audio with the chopper going 257 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 1: and then they started playing the Rambo theme song, which 258 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:27,079 Speaker 1: just like so had me going they're talking like that 259 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:34,199 Speaker 1: down I mean it did. It sounded like you know, 260 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: and I don't know if when they did a site 261 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: check maybe there was no like planes coming and going. 262 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 1: I don't know because obviously it was researched the plight path, right, 263 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean when Belichick was talking, it sounded 264 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 1: like a plane landed on his shoulder. Yeah, it looked 265 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: like that picture of that beach that has planes landing 266 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: right on top of it like that. That's what I'm 267 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: pretty sure that part of the scouting for isn't like, 268 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 1: you know, will the press conference sound okay? I don't 269 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: think they care about that. And actually a lot of 270 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: noise is something they want, you know, practicing in the 271 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 1: noise is probably not. Yeah, that's probably not. The Only 272 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 1: other thought I had was there's been plenty of choppers 273 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 1: landing in a practice all summer long. Remember a couple 274 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 1: of practices, was like, still we're still idling. They were 275 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 1: having fun with it. I mean it was it was funny. 276 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: But yeah, like I agree with you, Fred, the Bill 277 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:33,439 Speaker 1: probably doesn't mind the noise in terms of practicing in it, right, communication, 278 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 1: communication purposes, stay focused, stay focused? All right, Well, I 279 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 1: mean tonight we've got a first the first game. We've 280 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 1: got the Bills playing the Rams on nbcsdsandrales. Wrong, everybody 281 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: and rightly so, all aboard the Bills hype train. I mean, 282 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: that's just the most Super Bowl pict you see Buffalo Bills. 283 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,840 Speaker 1: Rightly so not you know, well, they've got the most 284 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: complete team I think right now. Yeah, Josh Allen, he's 285 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,439 Speaker 1: he's been fantastic. Yeah, it's the status on all the 286 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: injuries from the summer that they've had, though those guys. 287 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,719 Speaker 1: It looks like they're all kind of raring to go. 288 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: I think. I mean, I saw players seemed like he 289 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: was like maybe limited but practicing. I think he was 290 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,559 Speaker 1: an elbow issue. So it's a great, great first game. 291 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: There was a big thing on Twitter Josh McDaniel had 292 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 1: his first injury or practice participation report and they didn't 293 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 1: have They had zero guys on it. Oh really, oh yeah, 294 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: and everyone wow some kind of did they quote him 295 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 1: on that? You know, people on what it sounds like 296 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: in terms of the practice participation. Thank you, Paul Closer 297 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 1: to Home. This Miami report is no joke. I know 298 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: who is it? Wattle's got a quad? Yeah, like WoT 299 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: hasn't really done anything yeah for a while, so I 300 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 1: think his status is in question. Yeah. Um, but I 301 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: mean they have some important players on here, Toronto Armstead. 302 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: I know it says, you know, just not injury related 303 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 1: rest but not injury related in week one, Um, you know, 304 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 1: Chase Edmonds, Miles Gaskin. I think those are two guys 305 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: that factor prominently in their offense. Nick Needham is probably 306 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: going to replace Byron Jones at corner and obviously Waddle 307 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: even Van Ginkle give him the vank ankle. Yeah. Um, 308 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: and that was another one that was not injury related. 309 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 1: But um, three guys listed as rest odd yeah oh 310 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 1: yeah yeah yeah. Well now Waddle hasn't really done much 311 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 1: and Armstead hasn't done much. Yeah, and Armstead is a 312 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 1: key acquisition, he's the left tackle. So but the Peyton 313 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: and the Patriots size too interesting with I mean, of 314 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 1: course time Montgomery was out there that was interesting. Is 315 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: but knee listed as a knee I think we all 316 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 1: thought it was ankle. I did. And Isaiah Winn with 317 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: the back, which which like kind of fit for me 318 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: because it's been in and out. Couldn't tell what exactly 319 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: it was. Backs can nag, but that's it. Facts can nag. 320 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: Do you think this is going to be a problem 321 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: that that's that's a week or two. They don't just 322 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 1: go away quickly, you know. Now we don't know what 323 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 1: it is. Could it could be a bruise back there, 324 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 1: It could be you know, something more serious, you know, 325 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 1: one of those compressed vertebrae or something like that. I 326 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: don't know. Good though back is affects everything. I mean, 327 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: that's you know, and to Linger and what was the 328 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 1: last one, Paul Jacoby with a with a knee as well. Yes, 329 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 1: that so, Yeah, and you would sort of hinted at 330 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: that with Jacobe Myers. We haven't really seen him look 331 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 1: normal since that play in Vegas early in the Vegas game. 332 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: Would so, I mean some things to keep an eye on, 333 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: but just a couple of guys as opposed to I 334 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 1: think eleven from Miami. Yeah, and we'll see how that 335 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: progresses during the course of the week. On Friday, the 336 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 1: status could come out and you know, all these guys 337 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: are good to go, right, who knows? Right?

Why would I do tomorrow? I just have 342 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 1: to I write mine, I know, but you don't you 343 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 1: read what everybody else reads? No writes? No, no, no, 344 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 1: that'll go up tomorrow. Okay, so I won't give it away. Yeah, 345 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: now we got some good some good questions the round table. Yeah, 346 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:22,400 Speaker 1: get to marry on that. Sorry for him. Sorry, I've 347 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,440 Speaker 1: been doing it through the preseason. I guess no one cares. 348 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: I will be the first to admit I do not 349 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 1: read a lot of the stuff anything that I don't 350 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:33,879 Speaker 1: write on our side. You read the Globe, boy, you 351 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 1: were all over that today. Was yep, you know what, 352 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 1: that's a good point. That's a really good point. And 353 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 1: I'm being dead serious because there's no more you know, 354 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 1: sentlance of objectivity there is with us on patients dot Com. 355 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: I want to apologize to our listeners who I may 356 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 1: have been given the wrong idea that there's been some 357 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 1: concerns during the course of training camp because I read 358 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 1: the Globes preview today. Yeah, and I am no longer 359 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 1: concerned about any element aspect or anything about you know, 360 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 1: this show. We love Jacoby Myers, you know, like we're 361 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 1: big fans at Jacoby Myers. But as much as I 362 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 1: like him, I don't think he's like one of the 363 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 1: best pass catchers in the NFL. That people don't you 364 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: know that, Yeah, you know, that's that's I don't know, man. 365 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 1: There's a lot of good receivers in the NFL, and 366 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 1: you know, Jacoby is good. I could literally spend the 367 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: next half hour picking at individual things that are read 368 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 1: in that, but one of the things that was most 369 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 1: egregious was Pierre Strong was prolific running and catching the 370 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: ball in college. I wrote Pierre Strong's draft profile. I 371 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: spoke to his college coach who told me he will 372 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 1: need significant work as a past. Yeah. I was going 373 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 1: to say, prolific. Is he cut sixty two passes in 374 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 1: forty eight games. Yeah, that's like a little more than 375 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 1: one a game. Yeah, we have to watch our adjectives. Yeah, yeah, 376 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 1: I mean what Paul was doing that though, it was 377 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 1: freaking me out. Imagine somebody going through my thing and 378 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 1: you know like that. You know, sometimes you just like 379 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,399 Speaker 1: write something you're not thinking of, Like I kind of 380 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 1: used to run all I know, but this is what 381 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:11,399 Speaker 1: I'm talking about, especially in these times, and you know, 382 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,120 Speaker 1: we're not in the dynasty anymore. We're not right about 383 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowskier, Tom Brady. I think there's a responsibility that 384 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 1: those of us who cover the team have to be accurate. 385 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: Well you know, I know it's subjective, but to be 386 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 1: as accurate as you can be, because you know, like, 387 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 1: if I'm reading this thing today and like Jacoby Myers 388 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: is the best pass catcher in the NFL, and you 389 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:39,440 Speaker 1: know Pierre Strong was prolific, I'm like, let's go and 390 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 1: then it doesn't happen that way, and I'm even more disappointed. Yeah, 391 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: you know, I would like's actually rely on what they're reading. Yeah, 392 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: I would say like, I wouldn't say he's one of 393 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: the best wide receivers. I would probably word it and 394 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 1: say he's one of the most consistent or reliable. I 395 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:58,160 Speaker 1: wouldn't say best. Yeah, Like, I mean, it's just back 396 00:19:58,200 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: to my stats, Like, I mean, he's what like a 397 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 1: s in sixty seventy catch guy, the solid you need 398 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 1: those guys, they're better than average. But you know, I 399 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: don't think he's a somebody who pushes the pace. Yeah. 400 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,360 Speaker 1: You know, the first thing I think of is all 401 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 1: the great receivers that are in the league now, the 402 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 1: young guys, and you know, there's so many great receivers, 403 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,360 Speaker 1: Like there's no where you're putting him in the same 404 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:23,479 Speaker 1: list of Davante Adams, Like absolutely not right, Like he's consistent. Right, 405 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: we'll give him that, And we've talked and we're happy 406 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: to have him, and we're happy I think personal friend 407 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: at this point. Hey, we are exactly twenty four hours 408 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 1: apart in age. Like he's born twenty fourth, nineteen ninety two. 409 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 1: I'm born December twenty didn't do nineteen ninety two I 410 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 1: should have. I don't need this, did you. I don't 411 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,159 Speaker 1: get out. I don't need to find out my co 412 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 1: workers were born after I graduated college. I really don't 413 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: need that. I I'm not here for that. Yeah. Good. 414 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: In nineteen ninety two, O god, I was working. I was. 415 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 1: I had a full time job. Yeah, I had a responsibility, 416 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 1: grown as man. I wouldn't say that that was drinking 417 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,399 Speaker 1: like the reference ninety two, I was on my fourth arrest, 418 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:18,159 Speaker 1: so oh oh gosh, fred fred fourth. But yeah, I mean, 419 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 1: and in all seriousness, I have tremendous respect for Jim McBride. 420 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 1: I do. I really. I think I didn't name a name. 421 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: I didn't say. People aren't doumb they know who we're 422 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 1: talking about. It was he does a great job. He 423 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: in particular does a great job with injury information. He's 424 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 1: he's like one of the go to guys, which has 425 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 1: kind of worried me that I haven't seen much from 426 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,359 Speaker 1: him About Tai Montgomery. It's one of the reasons why 427 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 1: I'm not bullish on Montgomery's immediate availability. Um, but I 428 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,199 Speaker 1: think that if you we did this a little bit 429 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 1: on on my show yesterday Fred with Felger and mass 430 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 1: And you know, one of the things that that Fellger 431 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 1: asked me is like, well, what are some of the 432 00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 1: things like like how could it? How could it we 433 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: we have missed all this, Like what are some of 434 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: the things that we could could be wrong about? And 435 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 1: how could this go better than we think it's going 436 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 1: to go. And I said, well, I think there's a 437 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 1: logical path for that. I think you start off, you 438 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 1: have four challenging games to open the season. We'll find 439 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 1: a way to go two and two in those four games. 440 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: And I think that to do that, you're beating teams 441 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,199 Speaker 1: that I think is similar to you. Miami's one of them, 442 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,400 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh is one of them. Yeah, you know, I think 443 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 1: baltim was probably a little bit better, But that's at home. 444 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 1: You should be able to find find a way to 445 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: have a chance to win two of those three games. 446 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 1: I think Gak Green Bays a tough ask. Okay, I'm 447 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:38,440 Speaker 1: not telling you you can't win it, but I think 448 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 1: that's a tough ass. Well let's see how they are 449 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 1: this year, right, Yeah, No, but I mean assuming Aaron 450 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: Rodgers is Aaron, yes, you know, and he doesn't get hurt, 451 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: which is probably the big X factor. I'm sure he will. Yeah, right, 452 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 1: But if they go two and two, and then the 453 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 1: next four games after that, I think is some kind 454 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: of order of Detroit, Cleveland, Chicago Jets. Those are four 455 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 1: games that you really should win with no Deshaun Watson 456 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,200 Speaker 1: in Cleveland. Now Cleveland is the one, you know, So 457 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: let's just say, for argument's sake, you come out of 458 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 1: that eight game stretch six and two, Well, here we go, 459 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 1: and that's where we go. And this is what I 460 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 1: said with Mike. I said, all of a sudden, all 461 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: the questions that the players might be having right now 462 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 1: that you know, the crisis of confidence that might be 463 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 1: going on, specifically an offense that kind of disappears if 464 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 1: you get off to a six and two start and 465 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 1: he goes, well, and he looks at me, He's like, 466 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 1: that's really not that hard. That's not that hard of 467 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: an argument to make, and I laughed, and I said, 468 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,200 Speaker 1: I've worked at Patriots dot Com for twenty three years. 469 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,640 Speaker 1: I've been making arguments like that my whole life, right, basically, 470 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:40,400 Speaker 1: like it's not you're not asking someone to say something 471 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 1: that's not true, right, Like getting that you don't have 472 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 1: to be bullish on the team. You don't have to 473 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:50,359 Speaker 1: make up stuff about the team to be bullish on 474 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 1: the team. You don't have to say that Jacoby Myers 475 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 1: is one of the best pass catchers that no one 476 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,920 Speaker 1: talks about, to say that Jacoby Myers will be a 477 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 1: solid contributing player to it off. That might be better 478 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 1: than we think if they can put the running game together, 479 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: like you can do that without carrying on a little 480 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: bit too far, right, Yeah, I thought that was I 481 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 1: heard you saying that yesterday, Paul, and that was a 482 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,200 Speaker 1: really good point. I didn't really frame it that way 483 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 1: until you said it was just that these first two 484 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 1: games are kind of against teams that are writing around you. 485 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: It's right around that mix of the second level teams 486 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: that are going to be vine for playoff spots and 487 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 1: trying not to pump this game up too much because 488 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 1: it's week one and you know, like you feel like 489 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: you can always overcome some poor performances in September, but like, 490 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,359 Speaker 1: as you said that, you know they overcame the Miami 491 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 1: loss last year and stable to win the playoffs. But 492 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,199 Speaker 1: you know that's rare. You really need to maximize your 493 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: chances when you're you know, this kind of team that 494 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: is going to need every win to you know, be 495 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,959 Speaker 1: there at the end. Right, the teams that you figure 496 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 1: you're going to be close to when the standings you're 497 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 1: sort of good win and figure, we have to win 498 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:53,879 Speaker 1: this game. Pittsburgh is a game I look at as 499 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 1: kind of a must win, right, Like last year I 500 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:03,479 Speaker 1: would have looked at Indie in Miami like that. They 501 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: lost all three and still found a way to make 502 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 1: the playoffs over those two teams. Yeah, I think that's rare. Yeah, 503 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: I think when you expect to be similar to a 504 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 1: team like the Chargers missed out by losing to the Patriots, right, 505 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:18,640 Speaker 1: you know that was if the Chargers win that game, 506 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 1: they make the playoffs and the Patriots don't. Ye, Like, 507 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,119 Speaker 1: that's usually the way it happens for the Patriots. They 508 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:27,680 Speaker 1: lost those games, but still managed to finish the head 509 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 1: of Indie blew it at the end, right, they killed themselves. 510 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 1: They were in the driver Miami too, I mean Miami. 511 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: All they had to do was win that game against Tennessee, 512 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: which was completely banged up at the time, and they 513 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 1: couldn't do it. Yeah, Yeah, all right eight five five, 514 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 1: Pats five hundred is the eighth ticket. Hut Line web 515 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 1: radio at Patriots dot com is the email address. What 516 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 1: else is going on around the league or or here? Yeah, 517 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: I mean we're gonna have Alex call in and she'll 518 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 1: let us know what's going on down at practice.

Yeah. Yeah, I'm just like, okay, 543 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,879 Speaker 1: we don't have anything else. And like I said, I 544 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 1: get jacked up for the regular season. I'm looking forward 545 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 1: to watching the game tonight yea um and wildly overreacting 546 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:33,400 Speaker 1: to whatever I see because that's what we do, right, 547 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 1: It's done for the Rams they're out or the bills. 548 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: I guess they're not ready to prod time, Like you know, 549 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 1: that's you know that's coming, especially here if they lose tonight, Oh, 550 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:47,120 Speaker 1: get on your timeline and see oh the Jerry the world? 551 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:51,679 Speaker 1: Oh right, oh how did that go? You know, if 552 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 1: that's coming, should have never lost gilmore So, I'm jacked 553 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: up for that. I'm jacked up for the start of 554 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 1: the season, but like it's just you know, it's Obilgaitory. 555 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 1: He got the guy pretending he's asleep so he can 556 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 1: watch the football game meme like, yeah, come up with 557 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 1: something better than Yeah. The best one I saw was like, 558 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: my husband is a coach of an imaginary football team. 559 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 1: That is the best for the next Yeah, Mike, because 560 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 1: he manages it. He manages an imaginary football team for 561 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 1: four months. Well, that was the best. I mean, I 562 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,120 Speaker 1: don't play it. I don't know about you guys, but man, 563 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 1: there's a lot of fantasy football posts going around. Actually 564 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:36,120 Speaker 1: I actually have one. I'm in one league this year, 565 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 1: are you Yes, Yeah, I shot to be looking at 566 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 1: it again. But I did draft the team myself, okay, 567 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 1: because we had a draft in person and that meant 568 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 1: beers and wings pizza, so I was there. Okay, it's 569 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 1: been a long time since I Yeah, but there's a lot. 570 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 1: I don't look forward to the week that my defense 571 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 1: is on a buy, my kickers on a buy, or 572 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 1: my quarterbacks on a buy, because I will not be 573 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 1: making any transactions, so I'll probably lose those games. Yeah, 574 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 1: Matt's like, I'm gonna kicker. How many fantasy teams you 575 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,960 Speaker 1: got going man for this year, only four you cut 576 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 1: it back for the fourth one is actually the Patriots playbook. 577 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: One winner gets to be on the show with John 578 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 1: All fans, Well, you can hope, can't you. There's nothing 579 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 1: like um was that clared by management. There's nothing like 580 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 1: NFL Sundays with with Matt. Regardless of who scores a touchdown, 581 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 1: Matt's got him on his fantasy team. It's great, he 582 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: goes nice. Wait, I thought you had the other guy. No, no, 583 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 1: I haven't run on a different league. I'm so far 584 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 1: removed from fantasy now. I haven't done it in so 585 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: many years. It's and I mean I see all these 586 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 1: like strategies of like what is it like no no 587 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 1: running back this morning when you listen to this Morning. 588 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: I've never heard that before. Again, I'm I'm a neo fight. 589 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 1: I don't play fantasy. But Dave Richard, who's like the 590 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: fantasy football expert for like CBS Sports or something like that, 591 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 1: was talking about this thing that Mike says, like the 592 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 1: no running back, no no rbat, Like you wait till 593 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 1: like the middle to late rounds because the running backs 594 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: get hurt so much. Yeah, hit the theory as you 595 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 1: get star power at the top with wide receivers that 596 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 1: are a little bit more consistent. I've never heard it 597 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 1: in my life. I always thought running backs was strategy, 598 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: not a league. It's a strategy. Yeah, but it seems 599 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: like like analytics are now coming into fantasy too as well, 600 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 1: so you know, it's like compounding. I listen, I think, 601 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 1: you know, did you go with the glasses today? I 602 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 1: have to admit it's a huge thing. I mean, I 603 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 1: don't play it like people are so into their fantasy. Yeah, 604 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 1: you know, it's I mean, it's obviously great for the NFL. 605 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 1: I mean, I just I find it hard for you know, 606 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 1: maybe people who just want to root for a team 607 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 1: and don't want to spend you know, the day rooting 608 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 1: for a Frankenstein combination of random kind of why I stepped, 609 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 1: like I didn't really get into it because I like, 610 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: remember Brian we first started, when I first got here. 611 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 1: I remember Brian. When I first Brian would be like 612 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 1: completely preoccupy had with who was scoring the touchdown, like 613 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 1: in Patriots games. But like I remember Cam Cleveland scored 614 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 1: for New Orleans and he was like nice, like that 615 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 1: hurt us, and I was like, just he goes, I 616 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 1: haven't won my fantasy team. Okay, Like that was kind 617 00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 1: of why I never really got into it in the 618 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 1: first place. But I mean, it's gonna be random. They 619 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 1: can't be all these millions and millions of people that play. 620 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 1: They can't all they can't all be wrong. They love it, 621 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 1: they love it, they love they like the action and 622 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 1: going away like the action. I was just wondering if 623 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: the people who claimed to be experts and have fantasy 624 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 1: platforms are actually experts, like if they actually consistently outperform 625 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 1: the standard. Right if you Berry barely won his leagues, Yeah, 626 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 1: he won leagues before, but he's the Matthew Berry. If 627 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 1: you Bury from ESPN, he was like the fantasy guru 628 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 1: and he barely won. I need to get into Like 629 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 1: the NFL has like a Fantasy Live show where they 630 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:52,960 Speaker 1: go through kind of like what you said, Mike, the 631 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 1: analytics for each player and why you should draft him. 632 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 1: But it's just it's just a lot a lot that's 633 00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 1: the stuff that's real, you know, Like, um, they have 634 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 1: like the projected totals and what like, Like how I 635 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 1: can I can absolutely understand the appeal of getting together 636 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 1: with a bunch of friends and just picking teams. And 637 00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 1: I'm you know, I tell you the story all the time. 638 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 1: When I picked my team the one year I did 639 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,400 Speaker 1: it here with the Patriots, and I picked all the 640 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 1: guys I liked. I picked Curtis Martin. You know, he 641 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 1: was like one hundred and ten years old. He ended 642 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: up having like the one last great season. I got 643 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 1: so lucky. Why did I pick him because I like them? 644 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 1: Not because Cynthia Freuland had him, you know rated to 645 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 1: you know, be x amount of fantasy points like that, 646 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: to me takes all the fun out of it. Yeah, yeah, 647 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 1: it's it's too much. Yeah. Now if you're doing it too, 648 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 1: you know, like some people they go on DraftKings and 649 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 1: and whatnot, and it's it's business, and it's you know, 650 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 1: you're playing daily fantasy and you know for football, like 651 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 1: you know, it's much more than just a fantasy team. 652 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: You're games again, so you can make money that I 653 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 1: get you do all the research you want for that. 654 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: That's real. That's dam to do that. To have like 655 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,240 Speaker 1: a weekly kind of challenge, but not have like week 656 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 1: to week management guys on the bench by week, I 657 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 1: leave that. I leave that to Morrell. It's like, I 658 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 1: don't I got enough. I got enough time doing football 659 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 1: stuff and research, like, yeah, I amazon prepared as ever. 660 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 1: All Right, five past five hundred is the eight second hotline. 661 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: Web radio at Patrice dot com is the email address 662 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:28,800 Speaker 1: everybody is calling and emailing. So let's get to our listeners. 663 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: We'll start with Christian in LA. What's up Christian? Hey, 664 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 1: good morning you guys. Hey it is here. It's Thursday, 665 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 1: so yeah, it is Thursday. Football, yes, yes, and football 666 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:43,120 Speaker 1: starts today, real football. That marriage starts today. So we 667 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 1: made a giddy mood. Excuse me, nice, I'm with you 668 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 1: on fantasy. On fantasy football, for me, the relevant become 669 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 1: the inverse relationship to what your team can actually do. 670 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 1: If you have very good fantasy players, it's telling you 671 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 1: your team has a good players. There's no way around it. 672 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 1: Good fantasy players means that person is performing well in 673 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:08,839 Speaker 1: the NFL. Right, So I get behind it, like, well, 674 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 1: I wish we can have some guys that were big 675 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:14,399 Speaker 1: fantasy starts, because that just means that we have guys 676 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 1: that are good performing doesn't necessarily mean that Kirk Cousins 677 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 1: is a big fan. Correct, Thank you, Fred Hurts me 678 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 1: and you. You said if Jalen Hurts is a big deal, Like, 679 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: although I think Philadelphia is getting good, it's not good. No, 680 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:32,400 Speaker 1: there's great in fantasy, but real life too. Kirk Cousins 681 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 1: has a winning record at the quarterback. Kirk Cousins. You 682 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:38,160 Speaker 1: can keep them, yes, Kirk, you can keep them. You 683 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:43,319 Speaker 1: can keep them and win. You're no playoff games? Like yeah, 684 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 1: I mean like so all right, So Kirk Cousins. Who 685 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 1: had more Fantasy points last year just out of curiosity? 686 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:53,439 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins or Tom Brady? I don't know. I don't 687 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 1: know the answer. Yeah, tom Brady because he went further 688 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 1: and so that that allowed him have more more Fantasy points. 689 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 1: You don't have fantasy points in the playoffs. Yeah, they 690 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 1: played fantasy in the playoffs to you guys, come on, 691 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 1: I think they don't. I mean regular leagues, don't they 692 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,359 Speaker 1: stop in Week sixteen? All right? You put the fan 693 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:12,760 Speaker 1: duels that kind of Yeah, I'm not talking about gambling, 694 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 1: You're talking about fantasy football. You know, seventeen games, who 695 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 1: had more points? And my guess is Kirk Cousins. And 696 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 1: my guess is like three or four years ago Gardner Minshew, Yeah, 697 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 1: who was throwing the ball on every down down three 698 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:31,279 Speaker 1: touchdowns every game and put up a monster fantasy season, right? 699 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:33,640 Speaker 1: Who would you rather have mention not have a monster 700 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 1: fantasy guy? Here's the point. A good fantasy player is 701 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 1: usually a good football player. Usually usually you know, they're productive. 702 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 1: They produced, They produced again, yeah, producing stats doesn't like rattleman. 703 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if that woman was ever. Can I 704 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:55,439 Speaker 1: ask my daily football question before you guys? Yeah, okay, yeah, 705 00:35:56,960 --> 00:36:00,400 Speaker 1: uh us to go let me myself us than go 706 00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:04,440 Speaker 1: four and OL. What would have to happen win us 707 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 1: to go four and OL? I mean, you don't have 708 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 1: to be dominating right out of the gate. I mean, 709 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:10,880 Speaker 1: you know, I think these games will kind of be 710 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 1: flipped the probably a coin flip on at least two 711 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 1: of them. Um, you know, just based on but coming 712 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 1: out playing, don't beating yourself playing. We have to see 713 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:24,359 Speaker 1: things we haven't seen so far in summer, you know, Um, 714 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:26,239 Speaker 1: it's don't you think you'd have to see more than that? 715 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:28,480 Speaker 1: Like you'd have to see less from the other teams 716 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 1: than you have seen in the summer, you know, like 717 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,759 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers can't play well and you're gonna go for Yeah, like, 718 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,480 Speaker 1: I don't know, we weren't at these other camps, like, 719 00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:37,760 Speaker 1: you know, for all we know, Miami had a crappy 720 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:41,759 Speaker 1: you know preseason. I don't know. But I'm just talking 721 00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 1: about our team, like we you know, like we have 722 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:46,360 Speaker 1: to have an offense that we haven't seen yet, you know, 723 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:50,359 Speaker 1: for example, stringing a bunch of pofans we haven't seen yet. Yeah, yeah, 724 00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this. I think we have enough talent 725 00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:57,800 Speaker 1: to be a successful winning team. I know people have 726 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: been proving out with talent, but if we really play 727 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,880 Speaker 1: well together, I think we can. We can win and 728 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:08,400 Speaker 1: we have. Is that not the same for every team? Right? No, 729 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:10,880 Speaker 1: some teams just don't have a dog to really win, 730 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:15,319 Speaker 1: They really don't. I disagree. If the Patriots have enough 731 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:18,239 Speaker 1: talent to do that, regardless of opponent, then every other 732 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 1: team does too, right, virtually. Maybe maybe maybe Houston doesn't, 733 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:30,400 Speaker 1: you know, maybe Jacksonville doesn't. But Cleveland does. You know, 734 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:34,200 Speaker 1: the Bengals do, the Browns do? You know? The Raiders do, 735 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:37,400 Speaker 1: the Chargers do? Like all of those teams have comparable 736 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 1: or more talent than the Patriots. Yeah. So if the 737 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:41,840 Speaker 1: Patriots can do it, and every other team in football, 738 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:45,600 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh certainly does. Yeah, did anybody think Pittsburgh's gonna win 739 00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl? In your professional opinion? What is the key? Then? 740 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:51,800 Speaker 1: There is so much parody, What is the key to 741 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:56,040 Speaker 1: pulling pulling that kind of record off Mac Jones? Yeah, 742 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:02,920 Speaker 1: I don't think this is it's Matt Joe. Like if 743 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:06,120 Speaker 1: Mac Jones is, you know, really good, We're in it. 744 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 1: You need help, Yeah, you need help more than But 745 00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,360 Speaker 1: here's where I'll agree with Christian, And thanks for the call, Christian. 746 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 1: I think on offense, I've been saying this, I'm going 747 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 1: to continue to say it. I think we've got some 748 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 1: pieces on offense to work with. I really do to 749 00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 1: be good now. Like Tamara has been harping on the 750 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:25,760 Speaker 1: offensive line, that's the if you can have all those pieces. 751 00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:28,240 Speaker 1: But if the old line doesn't play, if if wins, 752 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:31,040 Speaker 1: back is hurt and Trent Brown walks off the field 753 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 1: after five weeks, oh, when you're a rookie guard isn't Yeah, 754 00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 1: that's that's screwed. I don't care what the pieces are, 755 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, I mean, of course Max's going to 756 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,760 Speaker 1: play a key part in it. But I think everybody, 757 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 1: everybody needs to play well. Everybody that the defense needs 758 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,720 Speaker 1: to get turnovers, they need to be you know, pressure 759 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 1: after pressure after pressure. Um, it's the stuff we haven't seen. 760 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,399 Speaker 1: And I mean there's always a degree of unknown going 761 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:57,359 Speaker 1: into the season, but like I feel like even more 762 00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 1: so this year, where you just you just don't know. 763 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,279 Speaker 1: And I think it's easy to like suspend disbelief and say, well, 764 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 1: they might actually be a solid team, but I haven't 765 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,759 Speaker 1: seen it yet, you know, I haven't seen ahead. What 766 00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 1: concerns me the most is getting off to a slow start, 767 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 1: like what we saw in the Raiders game, where it 768 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 1: took about a handful of series before you finally saw 769 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:20,239 Speaker 1: something on the offense. You wait too that too long 770 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 1: for that. This Sunday, Miami is going to be up 771 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:24,640 Speaker 1: twenty one nine, go back to last year, and then 772 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:26,120 Speaker 1: you're going to be fighting in the second half to 773 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:28,359 Speaker 1: get points on the board to catch up and wait 774 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 1: for the defense to hopefully get stopped so you can 775 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:32,640 Speaker 1: get back out there. It's like, if they start off 776 00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:34,759 Speaker 1: too slow, it's gonna be too late. When's the last 777 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 1: time a team you know that you know doesn't didn't 778 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:42,839 Speaker 1: really have elite talent on their roster, you know, got 779 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 1: far into the playoffs because they played well together. Like 780 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:50,200 Speaker 1: who was that was there? You know, twenty Detroit Pistons. 781 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,799 Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, in that league, it's hard 782 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 1: to do it without yeah, like like like you think 783 00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,839 Speaker 1: of like, oh, you know, well Trent dilfer one if 784 00:39:59,840 --> 00:40:02,720 Speaker 1: they had a great defense, right well, they had elite 785 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:05,920 Speaker 1: te man. It couldn't throw thirty yards, they had an 786 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,920 Speaker 1: elite defense. We we we talked about that. We've been 787 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 1: in this area. Like I think last weekend I brought 788 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 1: up like the Giants of you know, like not necessarily elite, 789 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 1: but I mean that might be that might be an 790 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:20,680 Speaker 1: example of the two thousand and eleven Giants might have 791 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 1: been a comparable team to the Patriots talent wise right now, 792 00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 1: and that they got hot at the right time and 793 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:27,839 Speaker 1: played well in the playoffs. Yeah that I mean, I mean, 794 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 1: how many guys from that team could you really name 795 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 1: right now? Like you know that that were like oh 796 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:33,320 Speaker 1: I could name them, but I but I think that 797 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 1: like Mario Manningham to me is a similar player to 798 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:41,759 Speaker 1: you know, DeVante Parker and Kobe Meyers seem Nick. I 799 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,760 Speaker 1: think those guys, I mean, they had some good players 800 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:46,839 Speaker 1: up front, of Victor. Victor Cruz was really still really 801 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,400 Speaker 1: really good at the time. But I think you know, 802 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 1: your receiving corps is comparable to those guys. Yeah, you know, 803 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 1: Ahmad Bradshaw and and and those guys comparable to what 804 00:40:57,719 --> 00:40:59,440 Speaker 1: you have and had. I think that's yeah, you know 805 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 1: how obviously Eli Manning was far more experienced at the 806 00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:05,719 Speaker 1: time than Mac Jones is now. Yeah, but I think 807 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,959 Speaker 1: that's it's a great point of you know, talking about 808 00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:12,920 Speaker 1: you expect even years ago Eli Manning not throwing any interceptions, 809 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 1: I mean, playing against his type, you know, And that's 810 00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:18,359 Speaker 1: I think what you have to see a little bit 811 00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:22,360 Speaker 1: that they play and let's not you know, forget that 812 00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:25,360 Speaker 1: they had a great coach, Tom Coughlin. He knew how 813 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 1: he could coach. I think we got that part covered. Yeah, well, 814 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. But that's a big part of it, right, 815 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:32,719 Speaker 1: And that's what I think gives you hope on this team, 816 00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:35,759 Speaker 1: is that we got Bill Belichick, you know, and it's 817 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 1: probably the biggest part reason for hope. Yeah, that's the 818 00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:39,839 Speaker 1: heart of it. That's the heart of it, and that's why, 819 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:41,440 Speaker 1: you know, when you talk about all the issues with 820 00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 1: the coaching and the team going on and everything. And 821 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:45,920 Speaker 1: that's why I think, you know, people probably have some 822 00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:49,680 Speaker 1: trepidation right now because I think for optimistic Patriot fans 823 00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 1: right now, it's exactly what he kind of asked on 824 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 1: the question of like, do you think you can take 825 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,560 Speaker 1: a team that, no, maybe it's not just dripping with talent, 826 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 1: but that you can get them to play well enough 827 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:01,919 Speaker 1: together that you know that they that they're a really 828 00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:03,840 Speaker 1: good team. And I think that's kind of the you 829 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:06,239 Speaker 1: know what everybody thought of the Patriots when you still 830 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:09,880 Speaker 1: were not willing to say Tom Brady's the greatest quarterback 831 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:11,360 Speaker 1: of all time and you know in the two thousand 832 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 1: and three, two thousand and four one is before that. 833 00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I think Pittsburgh did that largely last year. Yeah, 834 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:20,680 Speaker 1: they had terrible quarterback play, but they played well as 835 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 1: a team. They had some players, I mean T J. 836 00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:25,680 Speaker 1: Watt was you know, and played at an exceptionally high level, 837 00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:28,239 Speaker 1: but they found a way to play better as a 838 00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:30,640 Speaker 1: team than probably the some of their parts would indicate. 839 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:33,880 Speaker 1: And I think the Patriots could do that too. I 840 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 1: don't think that you can go from that, like now 841 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 1: you're saying four and all against four teams that you 842 00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:43,239 Speaker 1: conceivably could be underdogs on all four games. Like that's 843 00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 1: different to me than say, yeah, we could go nine 844 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:47,759 Speaker 1: and eight, ten and seven, you know, find our way 845 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 1: into the playoffs like we did last year. I think 846 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:51,799 Speaker 1: that could happen. I could, you know, I'll go back 847 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 1: to making my arguments. I can make an argument for 848 00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 1: ten and seven, absolutely, I don't think I can make 849 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 1: an argument for fourteen and five. Back to NFL for 850 00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:03,600 Speaker 1: whatever that whatever, the numbers fourteen and three two complicated 851 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 1: for me, math tough. Back to NFL fantasy for a second. 852 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 1: This from last year, this is wild. First of all, 853 00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:12,880 Speaker 1: the Patriots defense is number two. Oh yeah, they finished 854 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,360 Speaker 1: for like no. Second in the league in points allowed, right, 855 00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 1: and Nick Folk is also number two for points. Quarterback 856 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:24,799 Speaker 1: one is Josh Allen obviously was this last year? Yeah? 857 00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:29,520 Speaker 1: Mac Jones is eighteen. Yeah, but this but what was 858 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 1: wild to look at what was Kirk Cousins. Cousins was eleventh, 859 00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:35,320 Speaker 1: and Brady was number four or five, okay, eleventh, and 860 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:40,240 Speaker 1: then Brady's three. Okay, all right, so that but eleventh 861 00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:43,719 Speaker 1: overall doesn't back up. It's still a lot. Eleven still 862 00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,319 Speaker 1: a decent amount of points there still three hundred plus points. Yeah, 863 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:49,239 Speaker 1: season three hundred points for Kirk Cousins. No, but but 864 00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:52,080 Speaker 1: that's what it should be. I thought that everybody loved 865 00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins because he's a fantasy star. He's not back up, 866 00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:58,480 Speaker 1: you know, by week quarterback. I think it's weird that 867 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson's sixteen. He's well, he missed. He missed a 868 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:05,440 Speaker 1: lot of games, that's true. Let's get to the emails 869 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,880 Speaker 1: web radio at Patriots dot com. Um, this is from Louie. 870 00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:11,959 Speaker 1: He's in Phoenix. I just love that we have people 871 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,399 Speaker 1: all over the world that email us and call the show. 872 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:17,399 Speaker 1: That's great, you know, I just just I'm just saying that. Okay, 873 00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:22,400 Speaker 1: one last note before we got Baker Mayfield last, oh, last, 874 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:27,600 Speaker 1: So he's like three hundred and fifty fifth quarterbacks. He 875 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:35,439 Speaker 1: has a second to last. Okay. Yeah. Um, Louis says, 876 00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:37,480 Speaker 1: would you help me with an argument I'm having with 877 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 1: a friend. He says, hitting a baseball is the hardest 878 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:44,320 Speaker 1: thing to do in sports. I said, it's quarterback. What 879 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 1: do you guys think? Let me know when I can 880 00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:49,880 Speaker 1: get you guys lunch. Well, if the bet rides on 881 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:53,520 Speaker 1: you getting us lunched. Then whatever you take, whatever you take. 882 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:58,480 Speaker 1: But I think that you know, yes, his hardest quarterback. 883 00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:01,279 Speaker 1: I think it's the hardest position sports. I agree, But 884 00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:04,000 Speaker 1: but I think the hardest thing to do in sports 885 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:07,120 Speaker 1: is probably hitting that baseball against the pro pitcher. I 886 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 1: would agree with you. And I think if you look 887 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 1: at there's probably more solid two great quarterbacks every year 888 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,600 Speaker 1: than there are great hitters. Yeah, you know, and I 889 00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:21,319 Speaker 1: would say, how many guys hit three hundred nowadays? Right 890 00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 1: right right? That's because of the shift pall? Not many. No, 891 00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:29,680 Speaker 1: I did hard hitting a bit. I mean, you know, 892 00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:33,160 Speaker 1: like we've all played baseball, right, I mean, well, so 893 00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:37,920 Speaker 1: you've hit a ball, those you've hit a ball with 894 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:39,759 Speaker 1: a bat, you've hit a ball with a bat, But 895 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 1: none of us have faced I can't see pro major league. 896 00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:45,839 Speaker 1: I can't imagine what it's standing there with that kind 897 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:47,279 Speaker 1: of he imagine trying to get in the box and 898 00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:49,920 Speaker 1: facing me. That wouldn't have been hard. We were we 899 00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:52,399 Speaker 1: topping out, what were hitting on the gun? Eighty six? 900 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:54,920 Speaker 1: I'm sure that that would seem like just I couldn't 901 00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 1: even comprehend hitting that probably get up to eighty seven 902 00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:58,800 Speaker 1: on a high fastball out of the zone. Well, I 903 00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:00,719 Speaker 1: mean last night, in the case had we had were 904 00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:02,560 Speaker 1: the forty five for the for the ten year olds 905 00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,040 Speaker 1: forty five? Still, but I agree with Fred. I think 906 00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:09,160 Speaker 1: the hardest position in all of sports to play is quarterback. Yeah, 907 00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:13,240 Speaker 1: I think mentally. Physically yeah, not so much physically anymore. 908 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:18,640 Speaker 1: But but it's yeah, like Paul said, everything's riding on you. 909 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:22,680 Speaker 1: You know, decisions from a lot of people will tell 910 00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 1: you I'm going to play. It took a trip over 911 00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:29,000 Speaker 1: the deuce's side of the street. Here welcome NHL defenseman. 912 00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:32,600 Speaker 1: Hardest would be would be number two. You learn how 913 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:38,920 Speaker 1: to skate backwards, You're fine, college defenseman dismissive anything but football. 914 00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:42,640 Speaker 1: You learn how to skate back I I can't. I 915 00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 1: can't compare. I just think hockey is fun. I don't 916 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 1: think it's like like hitting a baseball. It's like, oh 917 00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 1: my god, playing quarterback, Oh my god. Like hockey, it's like, well, 918 00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 1: it's kind of funny, flowing like now tennis is in 919 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 1: each board to play. But did you see those two 920 00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:56,759 Speaker 1: guys last night? The way they were pounding the ball 921 00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:59,480 Speaker 1: for five hours, unbelievable, how hard they hit the ball 922 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:01,919 Speaker 1: and how fit they are to do that for five 923 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:03,800 Speaker 1: and a half hours. So Freddy, I came up with 924 00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:05,480 Speaker 1: something last night as I was watching I don't know 925 00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:08,000 Speaker 1: if you did. You watch the Pagoula match a little bit. Yeah, 926 00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:10,080 Speaker 1: neither one of them, I'd watch most of Neither one 927 00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:12,960 Speaker 1: of those two women could hold They couldn't hold a serve, 928 00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:15,520 Speaker 1: all right, But you know that's not usually the problem. 929 00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:18,839 Speaker 1: It's usually like seven to six six seven six seven seven. 930 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:20,960 Speaker 1: And you're like, right, this kind of stinks. No one 931 00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:23,279 Speaker 1: can break serve. What do you think if they just 932 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:27,359 Speaker 1: said no more two serves, just one, just one serve, Oh, 933 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:31,319 Speaker 1: that would be that'd be something that'd be a major change. 934 00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:33,000 Speaker 1: And yeah, so then if you go for it, you 935 00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:35,320 Speaker 1: better better be right. You can go for it, and 936 00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:37,759 Speaker 1: you know you can rely on your your big serve. 937 00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:41,480 Speaker 1: But and and the games would go faster. Yeah, you're 938 00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:46,560 Speaker 1: getting Paul. That's a huge thing. That's wow. Look at that. 939 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:50,960 Speaker 1: You know, Freddie. I respect I respect Freddie's You know 940 00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:53,719 Speaker 1: Freddie could play tennis. You know that. Oh I've heard 941 00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:57,160 Speaker 1: he was good, like legit good. Yeah, Well I grew up. 942 00:47:57,200 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 1: I mean Cape Cod it's a hotbed of kind of 943 00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:04,160 Speaker 1: talent that I know heroin us. McEnroe had a comment 944 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:06,239 Speaker 1: last night. Now I can't remember. He said, the next 945 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:10,640 Speaker 1: rule change will be blank, and I, for the life 946 00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:12,560 Speaker 1: of me, you know, Paul bade me think of that. 947 00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:14,759 Speaker 1: I can't remember what he said, but I was like, 948 00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:17,479 Speaker 1: that would that would be a pretty decent rule change. 949 00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:20,880 Speaker 1: No more ads like right and right after I forget 950 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:22,920 Speaker 1: what he said. Do you remember were you watching? No? 951 00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 1: But I do like that idea of the one serve 952 00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:31,640 Speaker 1: and to you a point um, maybe maybe eliminate the 953 00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:35,400 Speaker 1: win by two thing for every for everything, for everything, 954 00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:38,759 Speaker 1: like the sets need you need to win by two 955 00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:41,600 Speaker 1: because then the guy who serves hasn't you know, an 956 00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:44,680 Speaker 1: advantage if if I can just win six five and 957 00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:46,239 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, and the other team, the 958 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 1: other guy doesn't get a chance to hold his serve, 959 00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:51,960 Speaker 1: that's not fair. But yeah, everything by twos sometimes can 960 00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:57,239 Speaker 1: get tiring. Fred, no pickleball for you, But why is 961 00:48:57,280 --> 00:49:00,919 Speaker 1: it getting so? It's fun to play, it's easy to play. 962 00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:05,680 Speaker 1: You know, it's social, you know, demented and sad, but social. 963 00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:08,080 Speaker 1: Last night we were baseball practice and it was like, 964 00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:13,799 Speaker 1: you thought every old person in a ten taken over 965 00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:16,080 Speaker 1: tennis courts.

So this 1131 00:58:47,280 --> 00:58:50,000 Speaker 1: guy in a big tesla comes up right in front 1132 00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:51,480 Speaker 1: of me. It starts giving me the hands like what 1133 00:58:52,280 --> 00:58:55,160 Speaker 1: I'm like, you know, mostly go around, go around. You know, 1134 00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:59,080 Speaker 1: He's like, he wouldn't do it, It wouldn't go around. Finally, 1135 00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:01,440 Speaker 1: you know, he decides, oh, and go around. So he 1136 00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:04,160 Speaker 1: goes around, but then he decides to do a pull 1137 00:59:04,240 --> 00:59:09,600 Speaker 1: up rolldown. He pulls up next to roll down and 1138 00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:12,320 Speaker 1: pulls down the window. So he starts talking to me 1139 00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:15,320 Speaker 1: and I just say keep ff and driving just like that. 1140 00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:17,360 Speaker 1: He had the kids in the backseat. I don't care, 1141 00:59:18,200 --> 00:59:21,680 Speaker 1: but I just say keep ef. He goes we'll talk later. 1142 00:59:21,720 --> 00:59:26,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, we won't. That's another great moment from 1143 00:59:27,880 --> 00:59:30,560 Speaker 1: It's one of those days that seared into your memory. 1144 00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:33,720 Speaker 1: You kicked his ass later, right, Yeah, met him in 1145 00:59:33,760 --> 00:59:35,640 Speaker 1: the food court and it all went down. Yeah, but 1146 00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:37,960 Speaker 1: you know what, I had good tires on my car 1147 00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:41,560 Speaker 1: that day.

Takeout is a good food? 1173 01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:03,960 Speaker 1: Like what is that? There's a few of them? Oh really, 1174 01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:05,640 Speaker 1: I thought there was. They closed the one in Sandwich. 1175 01:01:05,680 --> 01:01:08,720 Speaker 1: They don't have enough staff. It's like that everywhere you 1176 01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:11,760 Speaker 1: go now it's just people shorthanded. You feel bad, like 1177 01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:15,760 Speaker 1: waitresses one hand trying to juggle seven tables. It's tough. 1178 01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:19,280 Speaker 1: They can't find people. It's true. It's amazing how lazy 1179 01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:22,080 Speaker 1: people are. They'd rather not work. Well, I don't know 1180 01:01:22,120 --> 01:01:24,800 Speaker 1: if they that anymore. It's that they're finding better jobs. 1181 01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:27,680 Speaker 1: They don't need to do that, and remote jobs at that, right, 1182 01:01:27,840 --> 01:01:30,240 Speaker 1: so many remote jobs, right, And that's like my son 1183 01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:32,840 Speaker 1: was waiting tables on the side. You don't need to 1184 01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:38,680 Speaker 1: do it now, you know. So anyway, might five five 1185 01:01:38,720 --> 01:01:41,000 Speaker 1: pass five hundred is the eight ticket hotline web Paul 1186 01:01:41,040 --> 01:01:43,760 Speaker 1: stepping away web radio at pages dot com is the 1187 01:01:43,840 --> 01:01:49,200 Speaker 1: email address. Uh, Sean, it's in Vancouver. What's up, Sean? Hey? Everyone. 1188 01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:54,160 Speaker 1: Paul is mentioning earlier in regards to having a start 1189 01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:56,240 Speaker 1: of two and two, you know, and then trying to 1190 01:01:56,280 --> 01:01:59,720 Speaker 1: go six and two. I see that as being really relevant, 1191 01:01:59,800 --> 01:02:03,080 Speaker 1: and that's why I'm very concerned about them all the 1192 01:02:03,160 --> 01:02:07,120 Speaker 1: Miami game because I'm I'm wondering if they lose this 1193 01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:09,720 Speaker 1: first game, they could possibly go one and three or 1194 01:02:10,160 --> 01:02:12,280 Speaker 1: go and four, and that could really degrail them. So 1195 01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:18,520 Speaker 1: I'm kind of really concerned about this game coming up. Well, 1196 01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:20,680 Speaker 1: like we talked about, Zoe says that these first two 1197 01:02:20,720 --> 01:02:23,200 Speaker 1: games are must wins. I think they're critical games. Yeah, 1198 01:02:23,480 --> 01:02:24,600 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know if I would go as 1199 01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:26,680 Speaker 1: far as to say must win, you know, week one 1200 01:02:26,720 --> 01:02:29,200 Speaker 1: and two. Yeah, but they are very important games. And 1201 01:02:29,440 --> 01:02:32,400 Speaker 1: I agree with you, Sean, I think if you lose 1202 01:02:32,560 --> 01:02:35,280 Speaker 1: one of these two, you're kind of staring at one 1203 01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:38,440 Speaker 1: and three. I think Baltimore and Green Bay are going 1204 01:02:38,520 --> 01:02:42,400 Speaker 1: to be difficult games. So what if? So what if 1205 01:02:42,640 --> 01:02:46,840 Speaker 1: they play a clean game, everybody plays really well, but 1206 01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:50,400 Speaker 1: they still lose, How would you feel? I'm hopeful I 1207 01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:53,200 Speaker 1: would feel really really bad at least if those things 1208 01:02:53,240 --> 01:02:55,520 Speaker 1: that felt I could clean up and win. Yeah, now 1209 01:02:55,600 --> 01:02:58,520 Speaker 1: you're your scenario is we're just not good enough. That 1210 01:02:58,600 --> 01:03:00,760 Speaker 1: would worry. But I think there's some gray in there 1211 01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:02,280 Speaker 1: tho though, Like you could lose a you know, just 1212 01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:04,360 Speaker 1: a straight up game. We had a turnover, they had 1213 01:03:04,400 --> 01:03:06,440 Speaker 1: a turnover, they had the last play, you know, like 1214 01:03:06,600 --> 01:03:10,840 Speaker 1: I'm operating under Tamaris parameters. They play well, not turn 1215 01:03:11,080 --> 01:03:13,240 Speaker 1: not turning the ball over like they play well. What 1216 01:03:13,360 --> 01:03:16,200 Speaker 1: if it's like like one of those great games, like 1217 01:03:16,240 --> 01:03:18,400 Speaker 1: when you see just really good games with two teams 1218 01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:20,440 Speaker 1: that play really well down to a field goal y 1219 01:03:20,840 --> 01:03:26,520 Speaker 1: s they lose forty eighty eight, I'll be disappointed, but 1220 01:03:26,560 --> 01:03:28,800 Speaker 1: I feel better about that than I would like losing 1221 01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:33,040 Speaker 1: nineteen sixty. Yeah, I'll say, okay, next time, we'll make 1222 01:03:33,080 --> 01:03:36,360 Speaker 1: that stop. And you know, i'd be okay with you know, 1223 01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:38,439 Speaker 1: there's so many I mean, there's so many ways games 1224 01:03:38,520 --> 01:03:40,439 Speaker 1: could go and you win or lose, you come away, 1225 01:03:40,480 --> 01:03:43,040 Speaker 1: you could win and come away feeling like, you know, 1226 01:03:43,360 --> 01:03:46,240 Speaker 1: we locked out. We shouldn't have really won that one, right, 1227 01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:48,600 Speaker 1: I get it. I'm gonna know what you guys are saying. 1228 01:03:48,640 --> 01:03:51,800 Speaker 1: I was just I was trying to tackle Tamara's Yeah, 1229 01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:56,000 Speaker 1: I'd rather play bad and win then play good and lose. 1230 01:03:56,760 --> 01:03:59,720 Speaker 1: But like, despite falling at seventeen nothing hole, we still 1231 01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:04,520 Speaker 1: came back thirty four seventeen. Yeah, as your point, Paul 1232 01:04:04,960 --> 01:04:11,400 Speaker 1: about the fantasy camaraderie, I came back here for well 1233 01:04:11,520 --> 01:04:13,440 Speaker 1: Parstlely to do our draft. We do every year for 1234 01:04:13,520 --> 01:04:15,320 Speaker 1: ten years, and we used to get together in person. 1235 01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:18,000 Speaker 1: That ended with the pandemic. I was hoping it would 1236 01:04:18,640 --> 01:04:20,800 Speaker 1: start up again, but no, we were just at home 1237 01:04:20,880 --> 01:04:22,880 Speaker 1: doing it online. I was just at my friend's place, 1238 01:04:22,960 --> 01:04:25,360 Speaker 1: So I really missed that. That was a huge part 1239 01:04:25,400 --> 01:04:28,560 Speaker 1: of it, for sure. Yeah, that's that's the only hiller 1240 01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:32,040 Speaker 1: for me. No, I respect I mean, I love people 1241 01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:34,479 Speaker 1: that have done the fantasy, like the league, like group 1242 01:04:34,520 --> 01:04:36,680 Speaker 1: of friends that have done it forever, that have running 1243 01:04:36,880 --> 01:04:39,040 Speaker 1: you know, themes and things on the line and stuff. 1244 01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:40,320 Speaker 1: It's just way too much. It's tough for me when 1245 01:04:40,320 --> 01:04:42,640 Speaker 1: it's like I have seven different leagues, and five of 1246 01:04:42,720 --> 01:04:44,680 Speaker 1: them I don't know a single person in that league, 1247 01:04:44,760 --> 01:04:47,200 Speaker 1: and like those ones that's it just seems like it's 1248 01:04:47,200 --> 01:04:50,840 Speaker 1: too much, pretty too much effort for me. Absolutely. Christian 1249 01:04:50,920 --> 01:04:54,320 Speaker 1: writes in from Colorado. He says, who in the Miami 1250 01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:57,520 Speaker 1: game do you see having the most surprising stat line 1251 01:04:57,600 --> 01:05:01,280 Speaker 1: on offensive defense? Mine is Mac three hundred twenty five 1252 01:05:01,360 --> 01:05:06,120 Speaker 1: yards passing, three touchdowns defense Mills with two interceptions and 1253 01:05:06,240 --> 01:05:09,720 Speaker 1: six tackles. Stats aside agree would duce. If we play 1254 01:05:09,760 --> 01:05:13,040 Speaker 1: a sloppy game, the team will have sloppy results, both 1255 01:05:13,160 --> 01:05:19,000 Speaker 1: offense and defense. Prediction Patriots stunt everyone thirty five twenty one. 1256 01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:24,120 Speaker 1: I like this optimism. Thirty three hundred and twenty five 1257 01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:26,920 Speaker 1: yards and three touchdowns were back. That's a lot. I mean, 1258 01:05:26,960 --> 01:05:28,640 Speaker 1: I don't and I don't know about and I like Mills. 1259 01:05:28,680 --> 01:05:30,080 Speaker 1: I think he's good, but I don't I don't know 1260 01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:34,600 Speaker 1: if he's maybe one I could see maybe, um, you know, 1261 01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:37,680 Speaker 1: some of the interior guys picking up some maybe maybe 1262 01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:42,600 Speaker 1: picking up you know, urpo stuff, get two off rhythm. 1263 01:05:42,960 --> 01:05:44,880 Speaker 1: He doesn't. He'sn't quite sure what he's seeing. All of 1264 01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:46,880 Speaker 1: a sudden, you know, Adrian Phillips is popping out from 1265 01:05:46,880 --> 01:05:48,480 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage, and you know he throws it 1266 01:05:48,600 --> 01:05:50,640 Speaker 1: right to him. Um, but you know it's hard to 1267 01:05:50,720 --> 01:05:54,880 Speaker 1: see with the separation abilities that waddle, and he'll potentially 1268 01:05:54,960 --> 01:05:57,760 Speaker 1: have to see Mills getting a lot of hands on balls, 1269 01:05:57,800 --> 01:06:00,560 Speaker 1: Like I mean, it really have to be some tight 1270 01:06:00,640 --> 01:06:02,560 Speaker 1: throws from from two to make that kind of happen. 1271 01:06:03,760 --> 01:06:06,520 Speaker 1: Sping Fresno writes twice, I was in and oh today 1272 01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:10,360 Speaker 1: I never miss spiing Fresno. I love Jacoby Myers, but 1273 01:06:10,440 --> 01:06:12,920 Speaker 1: why does he only have two touchdown catches? And was 1274 01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:15,440 Speaker 1: it one of those from Hoyer and garbage time? He 1275 01:06:15,560 --> 01:06:18,760 Speaker 1: seems competent in the open field, but when things shrink 1276 01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:20,680 Speaker 1: in the red zone, does he struggle to get open 1277 01:06:20,880 --> 01:06:23,520 Speaker 1: or is the quarterback not finding him? Or is it both? 1278 01:06:24,680 --> 01:06:26,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I would say I think, I mean, I 1279 01:06:26,640 --> 01:06:28,520 Speaker 1: think it's it's a little bit in the in the 1280 01:06:28,640 --> 01:06:30,240 Speaker 1: end zone. I feel like you either need to be 1281 01:06:30,520 --> 01:06:32,360 Speaker 1: quick to get away from guys, or you need to 1282 01:06:32,440 --> 01:06:35,200 Speaker 1: be big to win contested catches and fades and stuff 1283 01:06:35,200 --> 01:06:37,920 Speaker 1: like that. I think he was pretty good in Vegas. 1284 01:06:37,960 --> 01:06:40,800 Speaker 1: He showed a couple contested catches. I don't know, I'd 1285 01:06:40,840 --> 01:06:42,880 Speaker 1: forgetten if he had any here, But it was something 1286 01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:44,640 Speaker 1: that showed up to me that that maybe could be 1287 01:06:45,120 --> 01:06:46,640 Speaker 1: potential for him to be a little bit more of 1288 01:06:46,680 --> 01:06:48,240 Speaker 1: a red zone threat, just his ability. I mean, he 1289 01:06:48,240 --> 01:06:50,280 Speaker 1: doesn't have pretty good size for a receiver. I'll remember 1290 01:06:50,320 --> 01:06:52,800 Speaker 1: early in the season last year, Mac didn't even throw 1291 01:06:52,880 --> 01:06:55,240 Speaker 1: it into the end zone, so like no one had 1292 01:06:55,280 --> 01:06:58,840 Speaker 1: any chances that was an issue. Yeah, I mean I 1293 01:06:58,880 --> 01:07:02,040 Speaker 1: think if he only threw twenty two touchdowns, but it's season. Yeah, 1294 01:07:02,240 --> 01:07:05,000 Speaker 1: I think it's it's Parker Parker and Hunter Henry probably 1295 01:07:05,040 --> 01:07:07,640 Speaker 1: are the big red zone guys this year. I would guess. 1296 01:07:07,720 --> 01:07:10,160 Speaker 1: I don't really worry. Like, I think Jacobe Myers is 1297 01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:12,080 Speaker 1: a good, solid receiver. The fact that he doesn't catch 1298 01:07:12,120 --> 01:07:15,000 Speaker 1: a lot of touchdowns doesn't really bothers. I mean, that's 1299 01:07:15,000 --> 01:07:17,400 Speaker 1: a ton of touches anywhere it would. Yeah, Like, I 1300 01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:21,280 Speaker 1: just think inherently that position doesn't know you're you're the 1301 01:07:21,400 --> 01:07:23,320 Speaker 1: third down. You know, that's I mean, that's what he does, 1302 01:07:23,720 --> 01:07:25,600 Speaker 1: find the open hole. If you had an offense like 1303 01:07:25,840 --> 01:07:29,880 Speaker 1: last year, like I said they didn't, they weren't tremendously 1304 01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:35,200 Speaker 1: efficient throwing the ball um and getting passing touchdowns. Now 1305 01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:39,440 Speaker 1: Damien Harris rushed for fifteen, so they were able to 1306 01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:43,800 Speaker 1: score touchdowns. And like to me, there's a general amount 1307 01:07:43,800 --> 01:07:46,120 Speaker 1: of touchdowns you're going to score as a team. And 1308 01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:49,120 Speaker 1: as long as I'm reaching that, let whatever that number is, 1309 01:07:49,240 --> 01:07:50,760 Speaker 1: I don't know off the top of my head. You know, 1310 01:07:50,840 --> 01:07:53,960 Speaker 1: I think, um, you know, what are you getting like 1311 01:07:54,040 --> 01:07:58,080 Speaker 1: forty forty five touchdowns? You know as a team? Is 1312 01:07:58,120 --> 01:08:00,640 Speaker 1: that sound right? You know? For a sea probably so 1313 01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:02,720 Speaker 1: in there, you know, let's I mean twenty two and 1314 01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:10,240 Speaker 1: fifty math math is math is so unless you're all 1315 01:08:10,240 --> 01:08:12,480 Speaker 1: of a sudden coming up one year and Jesus, you know, 1316 01:08:12,640 --> 01:08:14,959 Speaker 1: we scored forty seven touchdowns last year. We only scored 1317 01:08:15,080 --> 01:08:16,920 Speaker 1: thirty three this year. Now that's an issue, the fact 1318 01:08:16,960 --> 01:08:19,400 Speaker 1: that your receivers aren't catching touchdowns, you know, because you're 1319 01:08:19,439 --> 01:08:21,800 Speaker 1: not scoring. But as long as you you scored forty 1320 01:08:21,840 --> 01:08:23,760 Speaker 1: seven last year and then forty seven next year and 1321 01:08:23,840 --> 01:08:25,880 Speaker 1: then maybe fifty the year after that. I don't care 1322 01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:28,120 Speaker 1: who gets them right, as long as as long as 1323 01:08:28,160 --> 01:08:30,120 Speaker 1: the team gets them. It's also another thing that's skewed 1324 01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:33,760 Speaker 1: by fifty hanging fifty on the Jags. You know those 1325 01:08:33,840 --> 01:08:36,320 Speaker 1: games where you had a lot of output in a 1326 01:08:36,680 --> 01:08:38,680 Speaker 1: handful of games, right and inmit it out, you know, 1327 01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:41,479 Speaker 1: like but you know, like Hunter Henry had nine touchdowns, 1328 01:08:41,520 --> 01:08:44,280 Speaker 1: so I don't need Jacoby Myers to have nine as well, 1329 01:08:44,520 --> 01:08:48,120 Speaker 1: like Jacoby. That's I mean, Hunter Henry, that's a good total, 1330 01:08:48,360 --> 01:08:51,120 Speaker 1: Like nine touchdowns. Someone's going to score the touchdowns, It's 1331 01:08:51,120 --> 01:08:53,800 Speaker 1: basically my point. Yeah, And Jacoby Myers is helping move 1332 01:08:53,840 --> 01:08:56,200 Speaker 1: the chains right lead to those touchdowns, so I feel 1333 01:08:56,200 --> 01:08:58,600 Speaker 1: like he still do parts. But I do think to 1334 01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:01,000 Speaker 1: answer the emails question, Mike, Mike had it right. I 1335 01:09:01,080 --> 01:09:05,840 Speaker 1: think slot receivers in general probably aren't the greatest red 1336 01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:08,599 Speaker 1: zone targets. Now there's exceptions. I mean, I think welkerhead 1337 01:09:08,640 --> 01:09:11,040 Speaker 1: eight one year, but that was that was like oh seven, 1338 01:09:11,560 --> 01:09:17,200 Speaker 1: you know, right, Um, there are a lot of touchdownss um. 1339 01:09:17,840 --> 01:09:21,240 Speaker 1: Ryan writes in I just started listening this offseason, and 1340 01:09:21,320 --> 01:09:23,720 Speaker 1: I'm excited to see how every they were men in 1341 01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:26,720 Speaker 1: the regular season. My question is, if you could add 1342 01:09:26,760 --> 01:09:29,800 Speaker 1: any current player to our roster from any other team 1343 01:09:30,200 --> 01:09:32,800 Speaker 1: for the next season, who would it be. Personally, I 1344 01:09:32,840 --> 01:09:35,760 Speaker 1: would want Jalen Ramsey. I could see the argument for 1345 01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:38,880 Speaker 1: a star wide receiver or maybe even another pass rusher. 1346 01:09:39,240 --> 01:09:41,519 Speaker 1: I just think the secondary needs someone who can be 1347 01:09:41,600 --> 01:09:46,120 Speaker 1: a lockdown corner. I'll take Josh Allen. I mean I 1348 01:09:47,160 --> 01:09:50,000 Speaker 1: like that pick. Davante Adams. I might take him after 1349 01:09:50,120 --> 01:09:52,840 Speaker 1: watching what he what he can do in Vegas. I mean, 1350 01:09:52,880 --> 01:09:56,760 Speaker 1: I think he's a he's a game changer. Non Quarterback edition. Yeah, 1351 01:09:56,800 --> 01:10:01,120 Speaker 1: I love Deebo Samuel's Freddie. You have always loved him. Yeah, 1352 01:10:01,200 --> 01:10:03,679 Speaker 1: I like him Fred. But the fact that he doesn't 1353 01:10:03,720 --> 01:10:05,960 Speaker 1: want to run the ball at all, well, I talked 1354 01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:12,360 Speaker 1: to him. I'm sure have done at all a little bit. 1355 01:10:13,880 --> 01:10:15,519 Speaker 1: If you give me a little bit, I'll pay you. 1356 01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:17,800 Speaker 1: I wouldn't know that with McDaniel cohn, if he's still 1357 01:10:17,840 --> 01:10:19,800 Speaker 1: gonna if they're still gonna do that as much I 1358 01:10:19,840 --> 01:10:25,479 Speaker 1: would I would. That's a good question. Like again, non 1359 01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:29,160 Speaker 1: Quarterback edition, I think maybe I would go with a 1360 01:10:29,560 --> 01:10:32,680 Speaker 1: like an elite pass rusher like Bosa, something like that, 1361 01:10:33,080 --> 01:10:35,600 Speaker 1: or one of the Watt Brothers, t J. Watt or 1362 01:10:36,000 --> 01:10:39,080 Speaker 1: Nick Bosa. Yeah, yeah, someone. I think I can get 1363 01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:41,840 Speaker 1: a disruptor, you know, eighteen sacks from him. I think 1364 01:10:41,880 --> 01:10:44,360 Speaker 1: that would change the complexion of the dive constantly involved. 1365 01:10:44,479 --> 01:10:46,880 Speaker 1: But I mean his suggestion of a great corner is 1366 01:10:46,920 --> 01:10:50,240 Speaker 1: good too. I would take Xavian Howard or Jayar Alexander, 1367 01:10:50,439 --> 01:10:54,200 Speaker 1: Mashawn Lattimore, one of those guys. Yeah, Mike writes in 1368 01:10:54,880 --> 01:10:58,679 Speaker 1: UM super excited to get back to some football, starting 1369 01:10:58,720 --> 01:11:01,519 Speaker 1: with tonight's game. I believe if the old line could 1370 01:11:01,560 --> 01:11:04,040 Speaker 1: play well, then we have a chance to win. What 1371 01:11:04,280 --> 01:11:07,040 Speaker 1: is your confidence level in the offensive line? Who's healthy, 1372 01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:11,759 Speaker 1: who's not? It seems like wins battling. I'm on the fence. 1373 01:11:12,479 --> 01:11:15,200 Speaker 1: On the fence, I think there's I think there's real 1374 01:11:15,280 --> 01:11:18,680 Speaker 1: questions with that group. And I mean, I said to Paul, 1375 01:11:18,760 --> 01:11:20,519 Speaker 1: don't I don't really get into the whole buying of 1376 01:11:20,640 --> 01:11:24,880 Speaker 1: it all as a team, but I kind of questioned 1377 01:11:24,920 --> 01:11:28,600 Speaker 1: the buying at that position on the edges, and I 1378 01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:32,200 Speaker 1: think that those positions are critical and if they decide 1379 01:11:32,240 --> 01:11:34,400 Speaker 1: to take a player two off, it could be bad 1380 01:11:34,479 --> 01:11:37,240 Speaker 1: things for Mac Jones. Freddy Mike is talking about you know, 1381 01:11:37,280 --> 01:11:39,080 Speaker 1: the tackles and some of the things that we've talked about, 1382 01:11:39,120 --> 01:11:42,599 Speaker 1: just to get the listeners up to speed. Trent Brown 1383 01:11:42,800 --> 01:11:46,080 Speaker 1: signed to stay here, signed an extension as a right tackle. 1384 01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:51,080 Speaker 1: According to him and his representatives, Mike Giardi sort of 1385 01:11:51,080 --> 01:11:52,880 Speaker 1: alluded to the fact that he's not happy about that. 1386 01:11:53,240 --> 01:11:55,759 Speaker 1: Right signed as a right tackle, he's now playing left tackle. 1387 01:11:56,080 --> 01:11:58,240 Speaker 1: For those that don't know, left tackles generally make more 1388 01:11:58,280 --> 01:12:02,000 Speaker 1: money than right tackles. And at the same time, Isaiah 1389 01:12:02,040 --> 01:12:05,439 Speaker 1: Winn moving from left tackle to right tackle as he 1390 01:12:05,600 --> 01:12:07,839 Speaker 1: enters the fifth and final year of his rookie contract, 1391 01:12:08,760 --> 01:12:11,840 Speaker 1: is theoretically now not as attractive on the open market 1392 01:12:11,960 --> 01:12:14,280 Speaker 1: when the season's over is he would have been had 1393 01:12:14,320 --> 01:12:16,280 Speaker 1: he continued to play left tackle. Now it looks to 1394 01:12:16,360 --> 01:12:18,720 Speaker 1: the rest of the league he's not good enough to 1395 01:12:18,720 --> 01:12:22,479 Speaker 1: play left tackle. That's why they moved him. So there's 1396 01:12:22,560 --> 01:12:24,840 Speaker 1: speculation that he's not happy about it. I think that's 1397 01:12:24,840 --> 01:12:27,080 Speaker 1: what Mike is talking about. What it is, I mean, 1398 01:12:27,120 --> 01:12:29,360 Speaker 1: and you know, just throw in you know, some of 1399 01:12:29,400 --> 01:12:31,600 Speaker 1: the tweets Trump, I'm ready to go home, you know, 1400 01:12:31,720 --> 01:12:34,040 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just and and some of the plays 1401 01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:37,559 Speaker 1: during during preseason that you know, it's just it didn't 1402 01:12:37,600 --> 01:12:39,960 Speaker 1: look right, and I think it's a non starter. If 1403 01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:42,519 Speaker 1: your offensive line doesn't come to play and you don't 1404 01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:44,879 Speaker 1: win up front, you don't win those battles in the trenches, 1405 01:12:44,920 --> 01:12:47,400 Speaker 1: and you know, give him Ac the time open up 1406 01:12:47,439 --> 01:12:49,800 Speaker 1: some running lanes. It's just it's all been connected this 1407 01:12:50,000 --> 01:12:54,760 Speaker 1: preseason and nothing's really been consistent. Tom Fremaine writes in 1408 01:12:56,280 --> 01:12:58,679 Speaker 1: I know a lot has been discussed about the Patriots 1409 01:12:58,760 --> 01:13:01,639 Speaker 1: leaving for Miami early, but has any consideration been paid 1410 01:13:01,680 --> 01:13:05,240 Speaker 1: to this being the first road game season opener since 1411 01:13:05,320 --> 01:13:08,320 Speaker 1: the change of the preseason schedule. With two weeks between 1412 01:13:08,400 --> 01:13:11,640 Speaker 1: games now, there is more flexibility to travel early for 1413 01:13:11,720 --> 01:13:14,120 Speaker 1: the opener. It's a small sample size, but do you 1414 01:13:14,200 --> 01:13:16,560 Speaker 1: think this might become a trend for Bill in the 1415 01:13:16,640 --> 01:13:20,040 Speaker 1: next few years for road openers. Also, Bill has said 1416 01:13:20,080 --> 01:13:22,639 Speaker 1: for years that longer road trips for the team also 1417 01:13:22,760 --> 01:13:25,840 Speaker 1: helped create bonding opportunities, and not being on the same 1418 01:13:25,920 --> 01:13:30,400 Speaker 1: page has also been a criticism of the team this offseason. Yeah, 1419 01:13:30,479 --> 01:13:32,960 Speaker 1: I don't think that'll be a trend. I mean, I 1420 01:13:33,320 --> 01:13:35,120 Speaker 1: hear what he's saying, but I also think that you 1421 01:13:35,200 --> 01:13:37,120 Speaker 1: can do too much. You know, It's not like, oh, well, 1422 01:13:37,160 --> 01:13:39,080 Speaker 1: if we just sequested our team for the whole season, 1423 01:13:39,160 --> 01:13:41,240 Speaker 1: they'd be the team that gets along the best and 1424 01:13:41,320 --> 01:13:43,519 Speaker 1: plays the best. Like it doesn't work that way. It's 1425 01:13:43,560 --> 01:13:46,439 Speaker 1: it's a balance. And again, I'm all for team building 1426 01:13:46,520 --> 01:13:48,960 Speaker 1: stuff and hey, let's show him a movie and all 1427 01:13:48,960 --> 01:13:50,760 Speaker 1: those kind of things that you do off the field 1428 01:13:50,800 --> 01:13:53,120 Speaker 1: to get guys. You know, I really believe in that 1429 01:13:53,400 --> 01:13:55,479 Speaker 1: of teams that like each other and genuinely all kind 1430 01:13:55,520 --> 01:13:57,400 Speaker 1: of get along. I just, you know, from my own experience, 1431 01:13:57,479 --> 01:14:00,280 Speaker 1: those are the teams that do well. But you know, 1432 01:14:00,439 --> 01:14:02,479 Speaker 1: what point is too much? The teams that do well 1433 01:14:02,640 --> 01:14:05,960 Speaker 1: are the ones that like each other well, I mean, 1434 01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:07,439 Speaker 1: I got I mean, I just I always go to 1435 01:14:07,520 --> 01:14:09,559 Speaker 1: my own experience of it. And you know, the teams 1436 01:14:09,680 --> 01:14:11,920 Speaker 1: that I played on where there were little factions in 1437 01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:14,040 Speaker 1: the locker room of guys that you know, coach would 1438 01:14:14,040 --> 01:14:15,479 Speaker 1: come in and give a speech in any leaf and 1439 01:14:15,479 --> 01:14:17,400 Speaker 1: then you'd have one of those one or two guys. 1440 01:14:17,439 --> 01:14:19,760 Speaker 1: Oh no, you have one of those two guys being like, 1441 01:14:20,439 --> 01:14:22,120 Speaker 1: you know, don't listen to him, you know, I mean, 1442 01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:23,560 Speaker 1: that would be the vibe of it, and it'd be 1443 01:14:23,640 --> 01:14:25,880 Speaker 1: like you know, and then especially for me, in those 1444 01:14:25,920 --> 01:14:30,120 Speaker 1: instant that a younger player who you know, isn't quite 1445 01:14:30,160 --> 01:14:32,960 Speaker 1: sure what the dynamics are of playing college hockey in 1446 01:14:33,040 --> 01:14:35,800 Speaker 1: my experience that you know. I just meanwhile, when you 1447 01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:37,320 Speaker 1: had a team, when I got to my senior year 1448 01:14:37,400 --> 01:14:40,240 Speaker 1: where we love the freshman we were a tight knit 1449 01:14:40,280 --> 01:14:42,920 Speaker 1: group of seniors. And I know that this is oversimplifying things, 1450 01:14:42,960 --> 01:14:45,519 Speaker 1: and a football team with fifty plus guys, it's a 1451 01:14:45,560 --> 01:14:47,479 Speaker 1: little bit different. But I just think that there's a 1452 01:14:47,520 --> 01:14:49,320 Speaker 1: line that you can cross where guys are like, man, 1453 01:14:49,800 --> 01:14:52,360 Speaker 1: we're getting burned out. We're always together. We need to reset, 1454 01:14:52,800 --> 01:14:54,479 Speaker 1: you know, and have a little balance of our of 1455 01:14:54,560 --> 01:14:56,800 Speaker 1: our personal lives as well to you know, know the 1456 01:14:56,880 --> 01:15:00,840 Speaker 1: value of this. So I don't know, we'll see how 1457 01:15:00,960 --> 01:15:02,640 Speaker 1: what this team is like and what they play like 1458 01:15:02,800 --> 01:15:05,040 Speaker 1: in in in the moments where it's all on the 1459 01:15:05,120 --> 01:15:07,360 Speaker 1: line and you gotta have it, because in recent years 1460 01:15:07,400 --> 01:15:08,880 Speaker 1: then when it's on the line and you gotta have it, 1461 01:15:09,240 --> 01:15:11,479 Speaker 1: they haven't really had it. So we'll see if this 1462 01:15:11,560 --> 01:15:13,040 Speaker 1: makes a difference this year. And I would just say 1463 01:15:13,080 --> 01:15:15,240 Speaker 1: about like, I don't think it will be a trend. 1464 01:15:16,880 --> 01:15:19,240 Speaker 1: I think that there are factors that Fred talked about 1465 01:15:19,320 --> 01:15:22,720 Speaker 1: yesterday that haven't really gotten enough attention just with the 1466 01:15:22,760 --> 01:15:25,720 Speaker 1: amount of activity going on at the stadium. If that's 1467 01:15:25,760 --> 01:15:27,599 Speaker 1: the case again, next the next time that they open 1468 01:15:27,680 --> 01:15:31,080 Speaker 1: the season with a road game, and you know, maybe 1469 01:15:31,120 --> 01:15:33,400 Speaker 1: they do it, but for the reasons that are being 1470 01:15:33,479 --> 01:15:36,080 Speaker 1: talked about with all of the team bonding and whatnot. 1471 01:15:36,520 --> 01:15:38,519 Speaker 1: And now you have the added time from the end 1472 01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:41,320 Speaker 1: of the preseason to the regular season. What difference should 1473 01:15:41,360 --> 01:15:44,080 Speaker 1: it make if it's home or away. Yeah, Like, if 1474 01:15:44,160 --> 01:15:46,759 Speaker 1: the if the idea is to get the team together, 1475 01:15:47,560 --> 01:15:50,200 Speaker 1: and I have sixteen days between the last preseason game 1476 01:15:50,240 --> 01:15:53,360 Speaker 1: in the first regular season game, why wouldn't I just 1477 01:15:53,560 --> 01:15:56,600 Speaker 1: take them away somewhere to practice. Yea, if even if 1478 01:15:56,640 --> 01:15:58,479 Speaker 1: it's a home game, right, That's why I don't think 1479 01:15:58,479 --> 01:16:00,640 Speaker 1: it has anything to do with it. I think some 1480 01:16:00,800 --> 01:16:03,519 Speaker 1: of the stuff you talked about with the Bramshot Sturbridge 1481 01:16:03,600 --> 01:16:07,720 Speaker 1: Village get a little early Christmas shopping and they don't 1482 01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:10,240 Speaker 1: they're busy around the holiday. But you know, with the 1483 01:16:10,320 --> 01:16:13,040 Speaker 1: concert here, in all of the activity here, I think 1484 01:16:13,080 --> 01:16:18,000 Speaker 1: there's a lot of obstacles that are affecting potentially how 1485 01:16:18,040 --> 01:16:20,519 Speaker 1: you're getting prepared, and I think that has something to 1486 01:16:20,600 --> 01:16:24,280 Speaker 1: do with it. The weather absolutely is a factor you know, 1487 01:16:24,360 --> 01:16:26,400 Speaker 1: to ignore the weather as a factor. I think is 1488 01:16:26,960 --> 01:16:31,560 Speaker 1: is wrong. But I think if you're playing, you know, 1489 01:16:31,680 --> 01:16:33,400 Speaker 1: say at the Jets next year, do you think they're 1490 01:16:33,400 --> 01:16:37,720 Speaker 1: gonna go to Long Island? Long Island and practice for 1491 01:16:37,800 --> 01:16:41,680 Speaker 1: a week? Right? I mean, I'm not trying to oversimpliz 1492 01:16:41,960 --> 01:16:44,639 Speaker 1: I just I think this is a unique situation. He's 1493 01:16:44,680 --> 01:16:48,679 Speaker 1: trying something in a place that they have had no success. Yeah, 1494 01:16:49,040 --> 01:16:51,000 Speaker 1: that's what I said. Just so they tried it. They're 1495 01:16:51,040 --> 01:16:53,120 Speaker 1: trying something. If it doesn't work, it doesn't work. And 1496 01:16:53,240 --> 01:16:54,680 Speaker 1: if it does work, I don't think it's going to 1497 01:16:54,720 --> 01:16:57,000 Speaker 1: be the start of a new trend, is my point. 1498 01:16:57,479 --> 01:17:03,080 Speaker 1: Anthony writes in um, this is a quick uh who 1499 01:17:03,160 --> 01:17:06,080 Speaker 1: am I game? All right? As we're coming up to 1500 01:17:06,120 --> 01:17:08,680 Speaker 1: pick soon play or a do you know how to 1501 01:17:08,720 --> 01:17:12,200 Speaker 1: play this game? Tomaron? Now, I say clues one clue 1502 01:17:12,200 --> 01:17:14,639 Speaker 1: at a time, and you can guess at any time. 1503 01:17:14,760 --> 01:17:17,880 Speaker 1: But once you guess, you're out if you're wrong. So 1504 01:17:17,960 --> 01:17:21,640 Speaker 1: who who is this? First player? One? I played my 1505 01:17:21,760 --> 01:17:24,320 Speaker 1: college ball at North Carolina and I was drafted by 1506 01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:29,120 Speaker 1: the Patriots in the third round. Two. I played for 1507 01:17:29,200 --> 01:17:35,719 Speaker 1: the Patriots twice, with the Vikings and Panthers in between stints. Huh. 1508 01:17:36,560 --> 01:17:42,840 Speaker 1: And finally, I hold the Patriots record for longest interception return. Man, 1509 01:17:42,920 --> 01:17:47,240 Speaker 1: this seems like a deep dive. Jimmy Hitchcock player too. 1510 01:17:47,640 --> 01:17:52,200 Speaker 1: Jimmy Hitchcock went to NC State City. Oh, that's what 1511 01:17:52,320 --> 01:17:57,680 Speaker 1: screw me out, screwed me up. I'm gonna do this. 1512 01:17:57,760 --> 01:17:59,280 Speaker 1: You gotta get it right. No, No, I want to. 1513 01:17:59,479 --> 01:18:01,320 Speaker 1: I want to make sure I apologize if I'm wrong. 1514 01:18:01,320 --> 01:18:03,479 Speaker 1: I thought Jimmy Hitchcock went to NC State though, but 1515 01:18:03,760 --> 01:18:08,639 Speaker 1: searching it, I know he had no knee cartlet University 1516 01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:12,519 Speaker 1: of North Carolina. Oh yeah, Chapel Hill. Okay, so good good. 1517 01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:16,760 Speaker 1: Second player.

Well, 1522 01:18:32,439 --> 01:18:34,400 Speaker 1: he ended up moving to he grew up in Jersey. 1523 01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:36,599 Speaker 1: I know that. I know that for new work, New work. 1524 01:18:38,040 --> 01:18:40,040 Speaker 1: Third player. I was a first round pick by the 1525 01:18:40,120 --> 01:18:44,040 Speaker 1: Patriots and first round pick and wish they could switch 1526 01:18:44,120 --> 01:18:46,280 Speaker 1: to another player drafted later in the round at the 1527 01:18:46,360 --> 01:18:49,720 Speaker 1: same position. Oh, I was a first round pick that 1528 01:18:49,840 --> 01:18:53,679 Speaker 1: the Patriots wish they could switch to another player drafted 1529 01:18:53,760 --> 01:18:56,280 Speaker 1: later in the round at the same position to kill Harry. 1530 01:18:57,080 --> 01:19:00,519 Speaker 1: That could be a lot of people too. In your year. 1531 01:19:00,920 --> 01:19:04,000 Speaker 1: I set four season records for the NC Double A 1532 01:19:04,360 --> 01:19:06,519 Speaker 1: and still didn't win the Big Ten Player of the 1533 01:19:06,600 --> 01:19:14,760 Speaker 1: Year award. Finally, I hold the Patriots record for being 1534 01:19:14,840 --> 01:19:20,519 Speaker 1: sacked in a single season with fifty nine. Oh god, Oh, 1535 01:19:20,600 --> 01:19:25,720 Speaker 1: Tony Eason, mister Denham, Tony Tony Easton, mister Denham.

You guys would make fun 1538 01:19:30,400 --> 01:19:33,240 Speaker 1: of He just broke the rules. You allowed him to 1539 01:19:33,280 --> 01:19:38,120 Speaker 1: guess twice. He can't do that too. Two more, I 1540 01:19:38,200 --> 01:19:41,160 Speaker 1: played high school football and wasn't given a scholarship for 1541 01:19:41,240 --> 01:19:44,160 Speaker 1: college until someone dropped out last minute at my school 1542 01:19:44,200 --> 01:19:49,679 Speaker 1: in Texas. Wes Welker, yess Welker. We should uh add 1543 01:19:49,760 --> 01:19:52,479 Speaker 1: that we had some Twitter mentioned yesterday Adam Gays indeed 1544 01:19:52,520 --> 01:19:56,600 Speaker 1: played high school football. That's right, thank you gonna say so. So. 1545 01:19:56,880 --> 01:19:59,479 Speaker 1: I've yet to hear of a football coach who never 1546 01:19:59,640 --> 01:20:03,040 Speaker 1: played football. That just doesn't make sense. Doesn't make sense. 1547 01:20:03,520 --> 01:20:07,080 Speaker 1: Didn't McDaniel. Yeah, well that's how it started. He played 1548 01:20:07,080 --> 01:20:09,519 Speaker 1: at Yale. Yeah, he was a wide receiver at Yale. 1549 01:20:09,920 --> 01:20:16,800 Speaker 1: He looks like he went to you said. Finally, I 1550 01:20:16,960 --> 01:20:20,840 Speaker 1: played my college ball at USC and was a first 1551 01:20:20,960 --> 01:20:25,280 Speaker 1: round pick when Paul had hair, William ac guinnis, No, 1552 01:20:26,040 --> 01:20:28,920 Speaker 1: you're out, I'm out.

I passed 1555 01:20:34,320 --> 01:20:39,400 Speaker 1: away in twenty twenty one. Now I have a guess, 1556 01:20:39,439 --> 01:20:42,599 Speaker 1: but I have to keep quiet. And finally, I hold 1557 01:20:42,640 --> 01:20:46,080 Speaker 1: the Patriots all time record for rushing yards. Oh I 1558 01:20:46,160 --> 01:20:48,920 Speaker 1: do know.

Let's see that was that was well done. 1562 01:21:00,960 --> 01:21:04,240 Speaker 1: You had a good mix of current, old and in between. 1563 01:21:04,360 --> 01:21:07,240 Speaker 1: I agree, well done.

With this in mind, any 1596 01:23:15,000 --> 01:23:17,559 Speaker 1: suggestions for how I can convince my forty nine ers 1597 01:23:17,800 --> 01:23:20,519 Speaker 1: supporting wife that we should raise our two year old 1598 01:23:20,800 --> 01:23:23,880 Speaker 1: son Jack as a Patriots fan. Hard argument to make 1599 01:23:23,920 --> 01:23:29,080 Speaker 1: at the moment. Game prediction. Hart says seventeen fourteen Patriots, 1600 01:23:29,160 --> 01:23:33,560 Speaker 1: but Head says twenty four to sixteen Dolphins. Okay, So 1601 01:23:33,840 --> 01:23:39,200 Speaker 1: how do we convince Richard's wife that they should raise 1602 01:23:39,280 --> 01:23:44,160 Speaker 1: their son as a Patriots fan? They both have history? Yeah, 1603 01:23:44,280 --> 01:23:49,240 Speaker 1: you can't use the history thing, right, And there's Dolphins? 1604 01:23:50,000 --> 01:23:58,800 Speaker 1: Is that? What was the other team? No? It wasts Well, 1605 01:23:58,840 --> 01:24:01,840 Speaker 1: you like Mac better than Trey Lance? Maybe? Well, but no, 1606 01:24:01,920 --> 01:24:03,640 Speaker 1: but this is the whole thing, Like, it's not just 1607 01:24:03,840 --> 01:24:06,679 Speaker 1: like the current team, it's like, you know, the aura 1608 01:24:06,840 --> 01:24:08,840 Speaker 1: of the team. How do you why would you want 1609 01:24:08,840 --> 01:24:12,519 Speaker 1: to be a forty? I think the Patriots colors are better, yeah, 1610 01:24:12,560 --> 01:24:14,720 Speaker 1: in the location and then then someday you can take 1611 01:24:14,760 --> 01:24:16,880 Speaker 1: your kid to and it's new for the Freedom Trail 1612 01:24:17,000 --> 01:24:19,439 Speaker 1: and you know, you know they live in England, this 1613 01:24:19,600 --> 01:24:21,439 Speaker 1: is New England. Yeah, I would agree with that. But 1614 01:24:21,520 --> 01:24:23,400 Speaker 1: you think the Patriots uniforms are better than I didn't 1615 01:24:23,400 --> 01:24:27,400 Speaker 1: say the uniforms, well, their colors are better than the Niners. Yeah, yeah, 1616 01:24:27,439 --> 01:24:31,160 Speaker 1: I think the Niners seven good unis Yeah, yeah, timeless. 1617 01:24:31,240 --> 01:24:33,439 Speaker 1: I think colors are better. You know. I'm I happy 1618 01:24:33,479 --> 01:24:36,439 Speaker 1: to like America red, white, and blue. So that is true. 1619 01:24:36,439 --> 01:24:38,320 Speaker 1: That is one thing that you have America that's a 1620 01:24:38,320 --> 01:24:41,840 Speaker 1: little different than most. I agree with you, Yeah, I 1621 01:24:41,920 --> 01:24:43,639 Speaker 1: think so, though you got more of a connection. It's 1622 01:24:43,640 --> 01:24:47,080 Speaker 1: a shorter flight too, yet shorter flight over the pond. 1623 01:24:47,360 --> 01:24:49,800 Speaker 1: Nice just to cross hair. Yep, you can come over 1624 01:24:49,920 --> 01:24:52,040 Speaker 1: and see where you know, the Americans defeated the British 1625 01:24:52,080 --> 01:24:54,360 Speaker 1: at all different sites around here. Huh huh. And as 1626 01:24:54,439 --> 01:24:56,880 Speaker 1: expensive as it is to live here, it's even more 1627 01:24:57,040 --> 01:24:59,680 Speaker 1: expensive over. I mean, we could get Aaron Salkin on 1628 01:24:59,720 --> 01:25:01,800 Speaker 1: here to talk how home values in the Bay Area 1629 01:25:01,800 --> 01:25:04,560 Speaker 1: and he'll kill running right down for you. Absolutely not 1630 01:25:04,680 --> 01:25:08,160 Speaker 1: as good. I'm out of this conversation. Why you like 1631 01:25:08,240 --> 01:25:12,920 Speaker 1: San Francisco better? Yeah, well, I mean technically the forty 1632 01:25:12,960 --> 01:25:15,400 Speaker 1: Diners are not located in San Francisco. Let's just start 1633 01:25:15,479 --> 01:25:17,920 Speaker 1: with that. That's right, they're in Santa Clara. Yeah, so 1634 01:25:18,120 --> 01:25:20,920 Speaker 1: like an hour away from San Francisco. Right, at least 1635 01:25:20,920 --> 01:25:23,920 Speaker 1: we say where we are. We're New England, were not. Yeah, 1636 01:25:24,040 --> 01:25:27,920 Speaker 1: we're in New England what Foxborough was not. We're not 1637 01:25:28,040 --> 01:25:33,320 Speaker 1: the Boston Patriots, but we're the New England Patriots. That's 1638 01:25:33,360 --> 01:25:37,880 Speaker 1: why we chose that name. No, No, it's kind of 1639 01:25:39,760 --> 01:25:42,240 Speaker 1: New England, kind of like the New York Giants and 1640 01:25:42,240 --> 01:25:44,479 Speaker 1: the New York Jets. That's not in New York, right, 1641 01:25:44,800 --> 01:25:48,880 Speaker 1: the New Jersey Giants and Jets. I mean, at least 1642 01:25:49,240 --> 01:25:52,160 Speaker 1: the Giants used to practice in New York. They don't 1643 01:25:52,200 --> 01:25:56,240 Speaker 1: even do that now. Everything is in It's egregious. I 1644 01:25:56,280 --> 01:25:58,040 Speaker 1: mean they still do. I feel like most I mean 1645 01:25:58,200 --> 01:26:01,960 Speaker 1: even Washington, New York is not in Washington, DC. Do 1646 01:26:02,040 --> 01:26:03,880 Speaker 1: they have they have a New I don't think they 1647 01:26:03,920 --> 01:26:05,519 Speaker 1: didn't move out of New York, did they? I thought 1648 01:26:05,520 --> 01:26:08,639 Speaker 1: they did. They're not in Hempstead anymore. I don't think so. Really. 1649 01:26:08,760 --> 01:26:12,280 Speaker 1: I think it's like, is it Florian Park or something like? Oh? Right, 1650 01:26:12,479 --> 01:26:14,360 Speaker 1: so where is Florence? Maybe that's in New York too. 1651 01:26:14,439 --> 01:26:16,200 Speaker 1: I think it is. I think it's in one island, 1652 01:26:16,280 --> 01:26:19,880 Speaker 1: but I'm not sure it might be right. We'll make 1653 01:26:19,920 --> 01:26:23,200 Speaker 1: your weight, all right, picks, we gotta hurry. Where is 1654 01:26:23,200 --> 01:26:27,439 Speaker 1: floren Park? It's in New Jersey. Yeah, so they're practice 1655 01:26:27,479 --> 01:26:30,360 Speaker 1: in Jersey. They're both in New Jersey. Whatever, New Jersey, 1656 01:26:31,280 --> 01:26:35,560 Speaker 1: they're both New Jersey. They're frauds. I mean, if we 1657 01:26:35,680 --> 01:26:38,120 Speaker 1: called ourselves to Boston patriots, people will have the right 1658 01:26:38,160 --> 01:26:40,280 Speaker 1: to call us frauds. We don't do that. We are 1659 01:26:40,360 --> 01:26:44,799 Speaker 1: new in New England inclusive. Yeah, that's right. Six states? 1660 01:26:45,240 --> 01:26:48,800 Speaker 1: You know why all of them? What market we SELLI 1661 01:26:48,920 --> 01:26:54,160 Speaker 1: and pissing contest? Uh?

Alex Alex Hell, yeah, 1683 01:28:16,760 --> 01:28:22,520 Speaker 1: what's what's going on down there? Yeah? Um? Pretty uneventful 1684 01:28:22,560 --> 01:28:26,639 Speaker 1: availability today, not gonna lie a lot of questions about 1685 01:28:26,920 --> 01:28:29,800 Speaker 1: the facilities in the fields, and how the players like 1686 01:28:30,040 --> 01:28:34,439 Speaker 1: practicing there. Um, they didn't seem to think it's much 1687 01:28:34,439 --> 01:28:36,320 Speaker 1: of a big deal that they're playing at a D 1688 01:28:36,479 --> 01:28:39,760 Speaker 1: two college that doesn't have a football field or a 1689 01:28:39,760 --> 01:28:43,200 Speaker 1: football program for that matter. But they just seemed happy 1690 01:28:43,280 --> 01:28:48,599 Speaker 1: to be playing on grass. Yeah, and um, remember when 1691 01:28:48,720 --> 01:28:50,880 Speaker 1: in Rocky four, I think it was when he went 1692 01:28:50,920 --> 01:28:53,360 Speaker 1: off against the Russians went off the grid. Yeah, he 1693 01:28:53,520 --> 01:28:56,800 Speaker 1: went up in the woods, and that's us right now. Yeah, 1694 01:28:57,040 --> 01:28:59,880 Speaker 1: you know we're spartan, We're like roughing, right they got 1695 01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:01,920 Speaker 1: if the computers were like, no, we're just gonna hike 1696 01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:05,400 Speaker 1: a mountain. Right. What really reminds me kind of of 1697 01:29:05,520 --> 01:29:09,080 Speaker 1: like a captain's practice from high school. Oh yeah, yeah, 1698 01:29:09,280 --> 01:29:13,280 Speaker 1: where you're maybe a side field, not the primary one, 1699 01:29:13,439 --> 01:29:16,160 Speaker 1: and kind of just throwing it all together. But I 1700 01:29:16,200 --> 01:29:20,680 Speaker 1: don't know. It was behind the VFW hall. Go to 1701 01:29:20,800 --> 01:29:24,720 Speaker 1: that second tree, take it out on that one. So um, 1702 01:29:25,080 --> 01:29:29,800 Speaker 1: how about attendance everybody there today? Yeah? Um, everyone from 1703 01:29:29,840 --> 01:29:32,960 Speaker 1: the fifty three man roster, um, Harvey Langy from the 1704 01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:36,519 Speaker 1: practice squad was back. The only person I did not 1705 01:29:36,760 --> 01:29:40,080 Speaker 1: see was Cameron mcgron. But it seems like we're in 1706 01:29:40,160 --> 01:29:42,680 Speaker 1: really good health. How else, how is have you seen 1707 01:29:42,760 --> 01:29:45,200 Speaker 1: time Montgomery actually moving it all? Like, does he look 1708 01:29:45,280 --> 01:29:48,840 Speaker 1: like he's moving? Okay, any limp or anything. We really 1709 01:29:48,960 --> 01:29:51,879 Speaker 1: just really just got to watch kind of a stretching 1710 01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:55,840 Speaker 1: period and some basic drills. I've seen him around the 1711 01:29:55,920 --> 01:30:00,080 Speaker 1: hotel a lot and don't notice any weird things with 1712 01:30:00,200 --> 01:30:03,160 Speaker 1: his gait, No real limping. So that's a good sign 1713 01:30:03,240 --> 01:30:07,240 Speaker 1: for sure. Interesting. I'm surprised. Usually when guys get carted off, 1714 01:30:07,320 --> 01:30:09,559 Speaker 1: you kind of say goodbye. But that's great. New cards 1715 01:30:09,560 --> 01:30:11,080 Speaker 1: aren't what they used to be doing. I guess not. 1716 01:30:12,439 --> 01:30:17,760 Speaker 1: So was it Paul Pierce that changed stretcher it off? Oh? Yeah, 1717 01:30:18,400 --> 01:30:20,839 Speaker 1: yeah he was one. He was another one was ridiculous. 1718 01:30:20,920 --> 01:30:23,720 Speaker 1: Every injury was like career and carried him out. I 1719 01:30:23,760 --> 01:30:25,160 Speaker 1: didn't have to go to the bathroom. I thought that's 1720 01:30:25,160 --> 01:30:26,599 Speaker 1: what it was like. You just had to take a lead. 1721 01:30:26,880 --> 01:30:34,080 Speaker 1: He confirmed show that he just had to poop pooped 1722 01:30:34,160 --> 01:30:40,640 Speaker 1: himself the court.

But as 1748 01:32:20,479 --> 01:32:23,560 Speaker 1: we know overall, that's just yeah, anybody can do that. 1749 01:32:23,840 --> 01:32:26,000 Speaker 1: So so Matt, is this something going on with the 1750 01:32:26,400 --> 01:32:29,559 Speaker 1: headphones or something you because I'm like kind of going 1751 01:32:29,640 --> 01:32:33,080 Speaker 1: in and out. I'm fine, yea ye, your connection tomorrow. 1752 01:32:33,160 --> 01:32:35,320 Speaker 1: So how we do this is we go around the 1753 01:32:35,360 --> 01:32:38,120 Speaker 1: table starting with dudes, and you pick the game outright 1754 01:32:38,760 --> 01:32:41,040 Speaker 1: and then against the spread. So you're making two picks 1755 01:32:41,840 --> 01:32:43,800 Speaker 1: and you're allowed to like give a little bit of 1756 01:32:44,040 --> 01:32:46,840 Speaker 1: you know, reasoning, and you want you know why you're 1757 01:32:46,960 --> 01:32:50,799 Speaker 1: picking the way you're picking. U. We'll start with tonight's 1758 01:32:50,880 --> 01:32:55,479 Speaker 1: game eight thirty on and be sure. Uh it's Buffalo 1759 01:32:56,560 --> 01:33:02,400 Speaker 1: at the ROMs, right, and Buffalo Buffalo is favored by 1760 01:33:02,400 --> 01:33:06,120 Speaker 1: two and a half Buffalo minus two and a half. Right, Yes, 1761 01:33:06,200 --> 01:33:09,560 Speaker 1: it's pretty impressive being favored on the road against the 1762 01:33:09,560 --> 01:33:13,360 Speaker 1: Super Bowl champs. I don't think who are They've lost 1763 01:33:13,400 --> 01:33:17,400 Speaker 1: a couple of peap they lost von Miller and j 1764 01:33:17,680 --> 01:33:21,120 Speaker 1: but they also added Bobby Wagner, so you know, Alan Robinson, 1765 01:33:21,400 --> 01:33:26,200 Speaker 1: Alan Robinson, some good pieces, great game. I'm excited, Uh, 1766 01:33:26,960 --> 01:33:29,360 Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna stick with the with the train 1767 01:33:29,520 --> 01:33:32,519 Speaker 1: right now, I'm gonna take Buffalo both ways. I think 1768 01:33:32,560 --> 01:33:35,360 Speaker 1: that you know they win, maybe not walking away, but 1769 01:33:36,360 --> 01:33:38,880 Speaker 1: more than three points. Certainly give me the bills both ways. 1770 01:33:42,479 --> 01:33:46,080 Speaker 1: So now it's your turn. Wait, I need to go last. No, 1771 01:33:46,920 --> 01:33:50,639 Speaker 1: you go second. Don't ever done mess up the rotation. Wait, 1772 01:33:50,800 --> 01:33:54,120 Speaker 1: so you said you're picking Buffalo. I picked Buffalo both ways. 1773 01:33:54,200 --> 01:33:57,960 Speaker 1: So they're gonna win outright, and they'll win by more 1774 01:33:58,000 --> 01:33:59,679 Speaker 1: than two favored by two and a half, so they'd 1775 01:33:59,680 --> 01:34:01,680 Speaker 1: have to win and buy three or more in order 1776 01:34:01,760 --> 01:34:07,960 Speaker 1: to cover. She's gonna be all of us, and she's 1777 01:34:08,000 --> 01:34:11,080 Speaker 1: like playing the Rams of the home team, and that's 1778 01:34:11,120 --> 01:34:12,920 Speaker 1: why they plus two and a half according to your 1779 01:34:13,000 --> 01:34:16,400 Speaker 1: sheet there. So if it's like a one point game, 1780 01:34:17,040 --> 01:34:19,200 Speaker 1: So if I think that one, I don't think that 1781 01:34:19,280 --> 01:34:22,240 Speaker 1: they're gonna win by more than just if I think 1782 01:34:22,280 --> 01:34:24,000 Speaker 1: they're not gonna win by more than I think they're 1783 01:34:24,000 --> 01:34:26,559 Speaker 1: gonna win, but not by more than you do. You're 1784 01:34:26,600 --> 01:34:30,400 Speaker 1: taking Buffalo, but you're gonna win by less than three points. Okay, 1785 01:34:30,439 --> 01:34:33,280 Speaker 1: So that means you're taking the Rams with the points, right, 1786 01:34:33,439 --> 01:34:36,320 Speaker 1: So you're just taking Buffalo to win. But the Rams 1787 01:34:36,439 --> 01:34:39,000 Speaker 1: to cover. So what do I do? I saw him 1788 01:34:39,080 --> 01:34:43,320 Speaker 1: like circle, and so I circled. I am the official Paul. 1789 01:34:43,840 --> 01:34:48,719 Speaker 1: I just do my official book here. Okay. But because 1790 01:34:48,760 --> 01:34:53,240 Speaker 1: he makes sometimes I do not. I do not cheat cheat. 1791 01:34:53,360 --> 01:34:55,680 Speaker 1: I said, sometimes you make, you'll take the plus take 1792 01:34:55,720 --> 01:34:57,439 Speaker 1: the plus two point fatch. This is all in acting. 1793 01:34:57,560 --> 01:34:59,960 Speaker 1: Just so you know. The only one I've ever had 1794 01:35:00,120 --> 01:35:03,640 Speaker 1: problems recording the the answer to is Eric. I've never 1795 01:35:03,680 --> 01:35:05,800 Speaker 1: had a problem with Mike. I've never had a problem 1796 01:35:05,840 --> 01:35:08,320 Speaker 1: with you, Fred. But when Eric goes into one of 1797 01:35:08,400 --> 01:35:12,000 Speaker 1: his twenty five minute dissertations on the Seahawks Broncos game, right, 1798 01:35:12,160 --> 01:35:15,160 Speaker 1: sometimes I lose track of who we actually think that 1799 01:35:15,320 --> 01:35:19,160 Speaker 1: has not happened otherwise. Yeah, So Tamara, I have recorded 1800 01:35:19,200 --> 01:35:23,280 Speaker 1: as Buffalo outright the ROMs with the points yep, Okay, 1801 01:35:24,680 --> 01:35:27,920 Speaker 1: I am going to take the rams both ways because 1802 01:35:28,280 --> 01:35:31,600 Speaker 1: I just feel it's a tough spot. I think everybody's 1803 01:35:31,600 --> 01:35:35,439 Speaker 1: on Buffalo. I think it's a rare situation where the 1804 01:35:35,560 --> 01:35:38,400 Speaker 1: defending Super Bowl champs and that there's a night game 1805 01:35:38,439 --> 01:35:41,080 Speaker 1: are really not getting any love at all, and I 1806 01:35:41,160 --> 01:35:43,560 Speaker 1: think that they'll come out and have a chip on 1807 01:35:43,640 --> 01:35:46,479 Speaker 1: their shoulder. I like it. Yeah, I mean, I was 1808 01:35:46,479 --> 01:35:48,559 Speaker 1: a little worried like two weeks ago when they were 1809 01:35:48,600 --> 01:35:52,160 Speaker 1: talking about Stafford having a thing that I saw the 1810 01:35:52,240 --> 01:35:54,800 Speaker 1: story that you read it. Yeah, he had like that, 1811 01:35:56,960 --> 01:35:59,920 Speaker 1: the PRP injections with Clayton Kershaw, they kind of had 1812 01:36:00,040 --> 01:36:01,920 Speaker 1: the same thing. And they're high school and they went 1813 01:36:01,920 --> 01:36:04,639 Speaker 1: to high school. Feld have friends. Says he feels much 1814 01:36:04,680 --> 01:36:06,400 Speaker 1: better than he did at this time last year. See, 1815 01:36:06,439 --> 01:36:09,320 Speaker 1: Paul's a big Stafford fan. Loves him, so if he 1816 01:36:09,439 --> 01:36:13,080 Speaker 1: says he's okay, that makes me feel better. And like, 1817 01:36:14,200 --> 01:36:16,360 Speaker 1: I could see myself picking the bills here, but man, 1818 01:36:16,439 --> 01:36:19,479 Speaker 1: I love picking against him now, you know, so I 1819 01:36:19,600 --> 01:36:25,400 Speaker 1: will go. I'm with Paul la both ways. Right Sunday 1820 01:36:25,439 --> 01:36:29,639 Speaker 1: at one, No LANs at Atlanta New Orleans by five 1821 01:36:29,680 --> 01:36:33,479 Speaker 1: and a half. You know. So Jamis Winston's a go 1822 01:36:34,000 --> 01:36:36,600 Speaker 1: He's so goofy. I just like I can't believe that 1823 01:36:36,640 --> 01:36:40,479 Speaker 1: he's a good quarterback. He's so goofy. I like, I 1824 01:36:40,600 --> 01:36:42,679 Speaker 1: love him. I can't believe he's good. I can't believe 1825 01:36:42,720 --> 01:36:47,679 Speaker 1: they're good. Michael Thomas is back, Alvin Kamara, Jarvis Landry. 1826 01:36:48,280 --> 01:36:52,200 Speaker 1: I think it's uh who's tossing the ball for Atlanta. 1827 01:36:52,240 --> 01:36:58,240 Speaker 1: The Marcus. Yeah with with Coral Patterson, Kyle Pitts, Drake 1828 01:36:58,320 --> 01:37:01,559 Speaker 1: London making his premiere, Brian Edwards from The Raiders. I'm 1829 01:37:01,560 --> 01:37:04,120 Speaker 1: gonna go. I'm gonna go with New Orleans, but you know, 1830 01:37:04,240 --> 01:37:06,040 Speaker 1: I think a weird division game. I'm gonna take the 1831 01:37:06,080 --> 01:37:08,400 Speaker 1: points for Atlanta, think that that it'll be a little 1832 01:37:08,439 --> 01:37:11,880 Speaker 1: bit surprisingly close. But I'm gonna give the Saints to win, 1833 01:37:12,360 --> 01:37:18,840 Speaker 1: but I'll take the points for Atlanta. Yikes. I'm gonna 1834 01:37:18,920 --> 01:37:26,000 Speaker 1: go Saints because I still think Jameis Winston is good, 1835 01:37:26,120 --> 01:37:28,360 Speaker 1: even though he's had his moments. I think since he's 1836 01:37:28,400 --> 01:37:32,600 Speaker 1: gotten his LAIC that he's a much better quarterback. So 1837 01:37:32,760 --> 01:37:35,439 Speaker 1: Saints to win the game and cover. Yeah, Okay, they're 1838 01:37:35,439 --> 01:37:37,200 Speaker 1: gonna win by more than five and a half. She's 1839 01:37:37,200 --> 01:37:39,439 Speaker 1: got it down now. Okay, Yes, I am also going 1840 01:37:39,479 --> 01:37:41,720 Speaker 1: to take the Saints, but I'm with Mike. I think 1841 01:37:42,680 --> 01:37:45,800 Speaker 1: Week one Division game on the road. I'll take the points. Yeah, 1842 01:37:45,840 --> 01:37:49,439 Speaker 1: I will two same way Saints to win, but they 1843 01:37:49,520 --> 01:37:55,400 Speaker 1: don't cover. Sunday at one, Cleveland at Carolina the Baker 1844 01:37:55,439 --> 01:38:00,439 Speaker 1: Mayfield Bowl, Carolina by one and a hey, that's one 1845 01:38:00,479 --> 01:38:03,120 Speaker 1: and a half. Sorry Carolina, one and a hey. I 1846 01:38:03,200 --> 01:38:05,200 Speaker 1: got it to adjust that one. It was previously two. 1847 01:38:05,280 --> 01:38:09,960 Speaker 1: So Jacoby Brissette, the Browns, Nick Chubb, Kareem Hunt, two 1848 01:38:10,000 --> 01:38:12,720 Speaker 1: guys that are pretty good back somewhere around Cleveland. Don't 1849 01:38:12,720 --> 01:38:14,920 Speaker 1: think they have much of a shot this year. Yeah, 1850 01:38:14,960 --> 01:38:17,760 Speaker 1: apparently that's the word on the street, word from from 1851 01:38:17,800 --> 01:38:21,080 Speaker 1: behind the scenes. This is a toilet bowl. I'm sorry, 1852 01:38:21,160 --> 01:38:23,920 Speaker 1: this game is bad. I'm gonna I'm gonna take you know, 1853 01:38:23,960 --> 01:38:26,479 Speaker 1: I saw Carolina here. I do think they're a little 1854 01:38:26,520 --> 01:38:28,200 Speaker 1: bit healthy. They were pretty good out of the gate 1855 01:38:28,320 --> 01:38:30,920 Speaker 1: last year before it all fell apart, So I'm gonna 1856 01:38:30,960 --> 01:38:36,240 Speaker 1: take I'm gonna take Carolina. Um both ways same. I 1857 01:38:36,280 --> 01:38:39,000 Speaker 1: wish I could pick neither honestly, because they're both terrible, 1858 01:38:39,120 --> 01:38:42,920 Speaker 1: but I actually think Cleveland's pretty good. Um, they don't 1859 01:38:43,000 --> 01:38:46,040 Speaker 1: have a quarterback and that will ultimately knock them out 1860 01:38:46,080 --> 01:38:48,479 Speaker 1: of the playoffs. But I will take Cleveland to win 1861 01:38:48,920 --> 01:38:51,800 Speaker 1: against Carolina. I thought I'd be the only one picking 1862 01:38:51,880 --> 01:38:55,639 Speaker 1: Carolina both ways, but that's what I'm gonna do. Um. 1863 01:38:55,960 --> 01:38:59,400 Speaker 1: You know, their joint practice with the Patriots helps them. 1864 01:38:59,720 --> 01:39:02,840 Speaker 1: I think it's proven that teams that have joint practices 1865 01:39:02,840 --> 01:39:05,559 Speaker 1: with the Patriots start hot. Yeah, yeah, yeah, because they've 1866 01:39:05,560 --> 01:39:08,560 Speaker 1: been challenge at work, don't yeh, don't check it, just 1867 01:39:08,720 --> 01:39:15,800 Speaker 1: go with it. Um Sunday at one, San fron at Chicago, 1868 01:39:17,880 --> 01:39:21,200 Speaker 1: almost Christian Arkee, San Francisco, buy six and a half. 1869 01:39:22,560 --> 01:39:24,719 Speaker 1: So we got Trey Lance with with Jimmy g breathing 1870 01:39:24,760 --> 01:39:26,760 Speaker 1: down his throat. Is that is that correct? Breathing down 1871 01:39:26,840 --> 01:39:32,080 Speaker 1: his neck? Oh, I don't know what. I don't know 1872 01:39:32,120 --> 01:39:33,680 Speaker 1: if the hell's going on and saying right, that's the 1873 01:39:33,760 --> 01:39:36,720 Speaker 1: saying people say that, right. Uh, just bears don't have 1874 01:39:36,920 --> 01:39:40,719 Speaker 1: much justin fields. Um, you know, David Montgomery, Darnell Mooney. 1875 01:39:41,040 --> 01:39:42,599 Speaker 1: Not not a lot going on there. I think it's 1876 01:39:42,640 --> 01:39:44,240 Speaker 1: a forty nine ers game. I'm gonna take them, and 1877 01:39:44,439 --> 01:39:46,439 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have them cover all six and a half. 1878 01:39:46,720 --> 01:39:50,840 Speaker 1: I think they win easy. I'm concerned. I want to 1879 01:39:50,920 --> 01:39:53,400 Speaker 1: go forty nine ers, but then I think Trey Lance 1880 01:39:53,479 --> 01:39:57,040 Speaker 1: is gonna go out and throw five picks. So but 1881 01:39:57,040 --> 01:39:58,720 Speaker 1: I don't have to do it anyway, and just hope 1882 01:39:58,760 --> 01:40:00,640 Speaker 1: for the best and hope that they put Jimmy G in. 1883 01:40:00,880 --> 01:40:02,680 Speaker 1: If he starts to get bad, oh that'd be bad 1884 01:40:02,840 --> 01:40:06,400 Speaker 1: for a week one they put Jimmy G in. Oh yeah, 1885 01:40:06,439 --> 01:40:09,000 Speaker 1: I like San Francisco big in this game. I'm would 1886 01:40:09,040 --> 01:40:13,720 Speaker 1: do Chicago's kind of in disarray. Yeah. Just six and 1887 01:40:13,720 --> 01:40:15,120 Speaker 1: a half though, is a big number for me. So 1888 01:40:15,160 --> 01:40:19,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to San Francisco. But I'll take the hook. Paul, Okay, 1889 01:40:19,600 --> 01:40:23,799 Speaker 1: I'll take the hook. The Sharps know something. Uh. Sunday 1890 01:40:23,840 --> 01:40:29,960 Speaker 1: at one, Pittsburgh at Cincinnati. Cincinnati by six and a half. 1891 01:40:31,840 --> 01:40:33,360 Speaker 1: It's a good one. The Bengals have won the past 1892 01:40:33,439 --> 01:40:36,720 Speaker 1: three interestingly enough, um, but we'll get a good look 1893 01:40:36,720 --> 01:40:38,920 Speaker 1: at Pittsburgh coming up on next week when the Patriots 1894 01:40:39,000 --> 01:40:41,559 Speaker 1: playing with Mitch Drubrisky his first starting nice stuff yesterday, 1895 01:40:41,560 --> 01:40:44,680 Speaker 1: Paul by you on miss Drubisky little uh insight into 1896 01:40:44,720 --> 01:40:48,840 Speaker 1: his second season the starter? Personally, why well, why don't 1897 01:40:48,840 --> 01:40:50,560 Speaker 1: you make a call? You've got connections, don't you know? 1898 01:40:52,920 --> 01:40:56,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Cincinnati. Um. I do think it's an 1899 01:40:56,360 --> 01:40:59,040 Speaker 1: interesting game though. I I'm gonna take this. I'm gonna 1900 01:40:59,080 --> 01:41:01,280 Speaker 1: take the points. I'll take Cincinnati a win, but I'm 1901 01:41:01,320 --> 01:41:03,479 Speaker 1: gonna take the six and a half for Pittsburgh. I 1902 01:41:03,560 --> 01:41:06,920 Speaker 1: think again, same kind of thing, divisional battle. Um, real 1903 01:41:06,960 --> 01:41:09,320 Speaker 1: good defense in Pittsburgh that that should know them pretty well, 1904 01:41:09,360 --> 01:41:10,640 Speaker 1: so I think it's a close one. But but I 1905 01:41:10,720 --> 01:41:15,400 Speaker 1: got the Bengals winning. Yeah, considering I'm not a Mitch 1906 01:41:15,479 --> 01:41:19,920 Speaker 1: Dubisky fan, definitely Bengals. Sorry, Pittsburgh, Um, but I think 1907 01:41:19,960 --> 01:41:22,160 Speaker 1: it's gonna be close because the Pittsburgh's defense is good. 1908 01:41:22,240 --> 01:41:28,880 Speaker 1: But personally, Kenny Pickett should start the call. Should I 1909 01:41:28,880 --> 01:41:30,880 Speaker 1: read those stats now or no? Wait, wait till next 1910 01:41:30,920 --> 01:41:35,080 Speaker 1: week when I will take Cincinnati both ways. I think 1911 01:41:35,200 --> 01:41:38,320 Speaker 1: they're just a better team. History has it that a 1912 01:41:38,439 --> 01:41:41,080 Speaker 1: lot of Super Bowl runner ups have a hard time 1913 01:41:41,160 --> 01:41:45,320 Speaker 1: the next year. That is correct, so unlike your joint 1914 01:41:45,360 --> 01:41:50,040 Speaker 1: practice theory, that one is actually accurate. To be honest 1915 01:41:50,080 --> 01:41:51,200 Speaker 1: with you, I have no idea if you're on the 1916 01:41:51,240 --> 01:41:54,320 Speaker 1: ones I never thought. So I'm gonna go with Cinci, 1917 01:41:54,479 --> 01:41:57,439 Speaker 1: but I will take the points. I will take the points. 1918 01:41:58,600 --> 01:42:07,679 Speaker 1: Um Sunday at one Philadelphia at Detroit Detroit. I'm sorry, 1919 01:42:07,720 --> 01:42:10,519 Speaker 1: Philadelphia by three and a half. Three and a half. 1920 01:42:11,280 --> 01:42:13,720 Speaker 1: A lot of Dan Campbell hype, I mean a lot 1921 01:42:13,760 --> 01:42:15,720 Speaker 1: of Eagles hype. Though, especially even in the time of 1922 01:42:15,800 --> 01:42:18,800 Speaker 1: this room, Teas has got on upstairs with a Super 1923 01:42:18,840 --> 01:42:21,640 Speaker 1: Bowl pick. I'm not sure I really get all of 1924 01:42:21,720 --> 01:42:24,880 Speaker 1: that craziness. But I do think the Eagles have some 1925 01:42:25,000 --> 01:42:27,599 Speaker 1: really good, intriguing pieces on both sides of the ball. 1926 01:42:28,080 --> 01:42:31,120 Speaker 1: Love Jordan Davis that they drafted. So I'm gonna go. 1927 01:42:31,240 --> 01:42:34,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Philly to win, and I'll say 1928 01:42:34,120 --> 01:42:37,479 Speaker 1: they cover as well. Same. I mean, I think it 1929 01:42:37,520 --> 01:42:39,400 Speaker 1: goes back to it I said earlier, like you can 1930 01:42:39,479 --> 01:42:42,600 Speaker 1: be great and your culture can be great, but that 1931 01:42:42,640 --> 01:42:46,280 Speaker 1: doesn't make you win games. Sorry. Yeah, I'm gonna take 1932 01:42:46,320 --> 01:42:48,320 Speaker 1: Philadelphia to win, but I will take the hook and 1933 01:42:48,439 --> 01:42:50,880 Speaker 1: I will take Detroit to lose by a field goal. Okay, 1934 01:42:52,640 --> 01:42:58,559 Speaker 1: I'm gonna this is your slam dunk, steal lock upset 1935 01:42:58,640 --> 01:43:02,320 Speaker 1: of the week. Detroit outright wins the game at home. 1936 01:43:03,240 --> 01:43:06,120 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I thought about it. That's gonna make it great. 1937 01:43:06,280 --> 01:43:08,479 Speaker 1: This is why I have a field I thought about it. 1938 01:43:09,320 --> 01:43:11,160 Speaker 1: I thought about it, Freddie, I didn't. I didn't pull 1939 01:43:11,240 --> 01:43:13,840 Speaker 1: the trigger. But I think there's a I agree with Mike. 1940 01:43:13,920 --> 01:43:17,040 Speaker 1: There's a lot of hype for Philly. For Philly, Yeah, 1941 01:43:17,080 --> 01:43:20,120 Speaker 1: and who was a Siriano? What's the san I mean 1942 01:43:20,200 --> 01:43:22,400 Speaker 1: he was, you know, like, what's he doing with the 1943 01:43:22,520 --> 01:43:25,880 Speaker 1: practice schedule and all that? But that team played well 1944 01:43:26,000 --> 01:43:28,400 Speaker 1: last year, you know, so he might be a better 1945 01:43:28,479 --> 01:43:31,320 Speaker 1: coach than people think. But I'm gonna go with Detroit early. 1946 01:43:31,840 --> 01:43:34,679 Speaker 1: You know, they have a lot of and they'll fade 1947 01:43:34,720 --> 01:43:37,759 Speaker 1: down the threat. They have a lot of That Sunday 1948 01:43:37,800 --> 01:43:39,400 Speaker 1: at one was the guy who has a field for 1949 01:43:39,439 --> 01:43:43,479 Speaker 1: the league at that right. Sunday at one, Indie at Houston, 1950 01:43:45,240 --> 01:43:51,120 Speaker 1: Indie by seven and a half, seven and a Hey, interesting, 1951 01:43:51,160 --> 01:43:55,600 Speaker 1: I mean didn't we just get put on ir I 1952 01:43:55,640 --> 01:43:59,479 Speaker 1: don't know. I only know is I like I like 1953 01:43:59,600 --> 01:44:03,880 Speaker 1: the colt Um, but I'm not sure. I'm gonna take 1954 01:44:03,880 --> 01:44:06,719 Speaker 1: the Colts. But I'm gonna also take the points for Houston. 1955 01:44:06,800 --> 01:44:09,320 Speaker 1: I think Houston is maybe a little bit underrated and 1956 01:44:09,520 --> 01:44:11,560 Speaker 1: maybe a little more scrappy than people might think, So 1957 01:44:12,360 --> 01:44:20,920 Speaker 1: I'll take the points there. M got a new candidate 1958 01:44:20,960 --> 01:44:29,760 Speaker 1: for Eric spot is so painful. Nothing really happens if 1959 01:44:29,800 --> 01:44:33,400 Speaker 1: you don't get it. Yeah, there are no ramifications whatsoever. 1960 01:44:33,560 --> 01:44:35,040 Speaker 1: So it's very hard for you to do worse than 1961 01:44:35,120 --> 01:44:38,360 Speaker 1: me too. I think I might do hers. I actually 1962 01:44:38,520 --> 01:44:42,680 Speaker 1: just well, let's since this is your first time ever 1963 01:44:42,800 --> 01:44:44,439 Speaker 1: doing this, if you want to take a pass and 1964 01:44:44,520 --> 01:44:47,439 Speaker 1: wait until the end on this one, you can do 1965 01:44:47,560 --> 01:44:49,760 Speaker 1: only get one pass. Yeah, you only get one. Just 1966 01:44:49,960 --> 01:44:53,479 Speaker 1: go with Indie, Okay, I think that's a good go. 1967 01:44:53,840 --> 01:44:57,920 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I think the Colts. Uh, you're the easy 1968 01:44:57,960 --> 01:45:01,360 Speaker 1: pick here, but I will take the hook again. Houston 1969 01:45:01,560 --> 01:45:03,439 Speaker 1: is able to maybe get an O by the way 1970 01:45:03,479 --> 01:45:06,599 Speaker 1: touchdown with the backdoor cover. I'm gonna take Indie both ways. 1971 01:45:07,000 --> 01:45:10,800 Speaker 1: Um let's go to Sunday at one, Baltimore at the 1972 01:45:10,960 --> 01:45:15,000 Speaker 1: New Jersey Jets. Thank you, Baltimore by seven and a half. 1973 01:45:16,000 --> 01:45:21,080 Speaker 1: Who and the Joe Flacco Bowl? Ye hope please um 1974 01:45:22,280 --> 01:45:24,240 Speaker 1: lamar back. They got a lot of healthy guys back 1975 01:45:24,280 --> 01:45:25,960 Speaker 1: in the Ravens. I think they get off to a 1976 01:45:26,000 --> 01:45:28,240 Speaker 1: good start. I'm gonna take I'm gonna take the Ravens 1977 01:45:28,320 --> 01:45:32,679 Speaker 1: to win and to cover with that big number. Same Yeah, 1978 01:45:32,800 --> 01:45:37,400 Speaker 1: me too. The Ravens get caught looking ahead to week three. 1979 01:45:38,160 --> 01:45:44,400 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, that's an I roll. That's that's an embomination. 1980 01:45:44,920 --> 01:45:53,240 Speaker 1: So the Jets cover Sunday at one, the Jaguars at 1981 01:45:53,280 --> 01:45:57,759 Speaker 1: the Commodores like that. Some might not even know who's playing. 1982 01:45:59,080 --> 01:46:02,880 Speaker 1: H Washington Washington by two and a half. I mean, 1983 01:46:03,000 --> 01:46:05,160 Speaker 1: this this game is like my my toilet Bowl of 1984 01:46:05,240 --> 01:46:06,680 Speaker 1: the week. This is like if this was the only 1985 01:46:06,720 --> 01:46:10,320 Speaker 1: game one I don't know why. I'll talk about Jacksonville 1986 01:46:10,360 --> 01:46:13,760 Speaker 1: and Washington and Cleveland, Caron are both of those are bad? 1987 01:46:13,920 --> 01:46:17,880 Speaker 1: This is nasty? Um, you know, I Washington always seems 1988 01:46:17,880 --> 01:46:19,640 Speaker 1: to have a little bit of something. I'm gonna just 1989 01:46:19,680 --> 01:46:25,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with them and I'll lay the points. Yikes. Yeah, 1990 01:46:25,280 --> 01:46:30,439 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Washington. It's like Carson Wentz. I 1991 01:46:30,560 --> 01:46:34,320 Speaker 1: guess I mean early we'll see. Yeah, yeah, I like 1992 01:46:34,479 --> 01:46:37,880 Speaker 1: Washington both ways in this one. Um, you know, I 1993 01:46:38,080 --> 01:46:41,599 Speaker 1: like Trevor Lawrence. I've stated it on this show many times. 1994 01:46:41,680 --> 01:46:44,360 Speaker 1: I think he is really talented. And hell there's another 1995 01:46:44,400 --> 01:46:46,479 Speaker 1: one from the guy on ninety eight five today he's 1996 01:46:46,520 --> 01:46:48,360 Speaker 1: no good. Oh he's no good, no good, no good, 1997 01:46:48,400 --> 01:46:51,680 Speaker 1: can't play. Um, I'm gonna go with Trevor Lawrence and 1998 01:46:51,760 --> 01:46:58,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Jacksonville wins this game. That's hilarious. Okay, uh, 1999 01:46:58,520 --> 01:47:02,720 Speaker 1: but we'll see all right. Now, what happens is when 2000 01:47:02,800 --> 01:47:05,720 Speaker 1: the Patriots have a game, but there's other games after it, 2001 01:47:05,840 --> 01:47:09,759 Speaker 1: we're gonna skip over the Patriots because we do them last. Okay, 2002 01:47:09,960 --> 01:47:12,680 Speaker 1: so when we do that, we all have to go, yeah, 2003 01:47:12,760 --> 01:47:15,760 Speaker 1: do you shake your paper? We have to make over 2004 01:47:15,880 --> 01:47:18,719 Speaker 1: something the Patriots, and we moved to four twenty five. 2005 01:47:20,040 --> 01:47:24,920 Speaker 1: The New Jersey Giants at Tennessee Tennessee by five and 2006 01:47:24,960 --> 01:47:32,120 Speaker 1: a half. Tennessee Tennessee. Where is it? Five alms? Okay? Man, 2007 01:47:32,240 --> 01:47:34,360 Speaker 1: I just I continue to wonder what what the Giants 2008 01:47:34,360 --> 01:47:36,120 Speaker 1: are doing. I'm guessing this is going to be kind 2009 01:47:36,160 --> 01:47:38,600 Speaker 1: of an interstitial year before they blow things up and 2010 01:47:38,680 --> 01:47:41,320 Speaker 1: start over next year. Derrick Henry is back for the 2011 01:47:41,400 --> 01:47:43,920 Speaker 1: tight Tens. I'm gonna take Tennessee and I will lay 2012 01:47:43,960 --> 01:47:47,160 Speaker 1: the points. Felt really confident about the way I said 2013 01:47:47,160 --> 01:47:50,519 Speaker 1: that too, So I think I'm back baby this year. Okay, 2014 01:47:50,880 --> 01:47:53,720 Speaker 1: I'm looking. Wait, so if I take the points, is 2015 01:47:53,760 --> 01:47:55,800 Speaker 1: that the plus five and a half? Yep? Yeah, that 2016 01:47:55,880 --> 01:47:58,519 Speaker 1: means Tennessee winning. Tennessee is gonna win by fewer than 2017 01:47:58,600 --> 01:48:01,599 Speaker 1: six points. You take Tennessee and you take the points. Yeah, 2018 01:48:01,600 --> 01:48:04,759 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do that. Okay, So Tennessee with the Giants 2019 01:48:04,840 --> 01:48:08,400 Speaker 1: covering someday when you're like, you know, living in Vegas 2020 01:48:08,479 --> 01:48:12,040 Speaker 1: working for like MGM Sports is like the game. Remember, remember, Guru, 2021 01:48:12,200 --> 01:48:14,760 Speaker 1: it all started right here. I didn't do it once 2022 01:48:14,800 --> 01:48:18,360 Speaker 1: when we were in Vegas. I will take Tennessee both ways. 2023 01:48:19,080 --> 01:48:23,679 Speaker 1: What's the number again? Their favorite Tennessee is Yes, Tennessee 2024 01:48:23,960 --> 01:48:28,000 Speaker 1: five and a half Brian Dables first game. Yeah, yeah, 2025 01:48:28,120 --> 01:48:31,120 Speaker 1: that's true. That's a big factor. You know what can 2026 01:48:31,200 --> 01:48:35,640 Speaker 1: he get out of Jones? Daniel Jones? U that's a 2027 01:48:35,760 --> 01:48:37,960 Speaker 1: that's a tough one. Um, it's a big number. But 2028 01:48:38,040 --> 01:48:42,320 Speaker 1: I'll go with Tennessee both ways. Four twenty five notices 2029 01:48:42,360 --> 01:48:45,599 Speaker 1: No four or five games. They eliminated those, correct, did 2030 01:48:45,680 --> 01:48:51,320 Speaker 1: they think? So? Okay? Four twenty five Kansas City at Arizona, 2031 01:48:51,840 --> 01:48:56,439 Speaker 1: Kansas City by five and a half. Great matchup. Another 2032 01:48:56,640 --> 01:48:59,120 Speaker 1: not one of the top few games this week with 2033 01:48:59,240 --> 01:49:03,320 Speaker 1: Buffalo in the MS, I would say, uh, now is 2034 01:49:03,720 --> 01:49:08,360 Speaker 1: uh is the receiver back for DeAndre Hopkins? Is he 2035 01:49:08,439 --> 01:49:10,479 Speaker 1: back here? No? He's not back here? Suspended still for 2036 01:49:10,520 --> 01:49:12,720 Speaker 1: a six? Right? I forgot about that. That's why it 2037 01:49:12,800 --> 01:49:14,679 Speaker 1: was such a brilliant late round pick in my draft. 2038 01:49:15,520 --> 01:49:19,479 Speaker 1: Smart chess chess. Uh, I'm gonna take. I'm gonna take 2039 01:49:19,520 --> 01:49:23,200 Speaker 1: the chefs um and I'm gonna I'm gonna lay the points. 2040 01:49:23,200 --> 01:49:25,760 Speaker 1: I think even without Tyreek, I think they're gonna I 2041 01:49:25,800 --> 01:49:31,400 Speaker 1: think they're gonna roll. Oh wow, yikes, Tokay, I'm gonna 2042 01:49:31,439 --> 01:49:35,040 Speaker 1: go Arizona. Um. Okay, that's all you need to say. 2043 01:49:36,080 --> 01:49:38,800 Speaker 1: If you think Arizona is gonna win any Arizona yep, 2044 01:49:39,040 --> 01:49:42,120 Speaker 1: so you automatically get Arizona in the points, right because 2045 01:49:42,160 --> 01:49:46,040 Speaker 1: they're underdogs. Arizona's pick more underdogs. This makes it easy, right, 2046 01:49:46,120 --> 01:49:48,400 Speaker 1: makes it easy. Maybe the Chiefs are off the same 2047 01:49:48,400 --> 01:49:50,120 Speaker 1: way they did last year. Yeah, And that's the one 2048 01:49:50,160 --> 01:49:52,800 Speaker 1: thing that I'm concerned about is Arizona starts fast and 2049 01:49:52,880 --> 01:49:56,400 Speaker 1: Kansas City last year anyway didn't. But I'm gonna take 2050 01:49:56,439 --> 01:50:00,679 Speaker 1: the Chiefs both ways. I'm with Tamara. I'm taking Cardinals 2051 01:50:01,920 --> 01:50:05,360 Speaker 1: both ways. But as Paul said, I don't have to 2052 01:50:05,439 --> 01:50:08,160 Speaker 1: do that right because it's only one way. Tomara understood 2053 01:50:08,160 --> 01:50:11,280 Speaker 1: how to do it. You don't, okay, fur twenty five 2054 01:50:11,760 --> 01:50:15,160 Speaker 1: Raiders at that shot. This is the game, is a game, 2055 01:50:15,360 --> 01:50:18,840 Speaker 1: It's a game. Yeah, Charges the lack. This is big 2056 01:50:18,880 --> 01:50:20,880 Speaker 1: boy football by three and a half. Three and a 2057 01:50:20,920 --> 01:50:24,840 Speaker 1: hay wait you said Chargers are Chargers favored by three 2058 01:50:24,840 --> 01:50:28,640 Speaker 1: and a half, Chargers favorite at home? Justin Herbert big fan. Um, 2059 01:50:29,080 --> 01:50:32,320 Speaker 1: But I gotta admit I'm rooting for Josh and the 2060 01:50:32,400 --> 01:50:34,439 Speaker 1: Raiders in all games but but one this year. So 2061 01:50:34,479 --> 01:50:37,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna vote with my with my heart, 2062 01:50:37,320 --> 01:50:39,680 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna take the Raiders to this one. I'm 2063 01:50:39,720 --> 01:50:42,519 Speaker 1: gonna say Raiders based off what we saw in joint 2064 01:50:42,600 --> 01:50:45,360 Speaker 1: practices here, gonna be hard to see John practice of 2065 01:50:45,360 --> 01:50:49,280 Speaker 1: the Charges. We might have walked away similarly impressed. But 2066 01:50:50,680 --> 01:50:53,320 Speaker 1: Davante Adams though, who's on there that looks like that? 2067 01:50:54,160 --> 01:50:59,560 Speaker 1: Keenan Allen and Mike Williams. That's the neckler. I don't know. 2068 01:50:59,600 --> 01:51:02,120 Speaker 1: I got some pieces. Hey, that's my that's my first 2069 01:51:02,240 --> 01:51:05,760 Speaker 1: round picks. I am going to take the lack. Oh crap, 2070 01:51:05,880 --> 01:51:07,920 Speaker 1: I put that on Fred's column. I'm gonna take the 2071 01:51:08,000 --> 01:51:11,320 Speaker 1: lack to win, but Vegas already, but Vegas to cover. 2072 01:51:11,680 --> 01:51:17,200 Speaker 1: I'll have to adjust accordingly if um yeah, I'm torn 2073 01:51:17,320 --> 01:51:19,559 Speaker 1: on this one. Uh So, it sounds like you can 2074 01:51:19,600 --> 01:51:21,640 Speaker 1: do the same thing. You know, the Vegas did have 2075 01:51:21,880 --> 01:51:25,160 Speaker 1: the you know, added benefit of practicing with us, so 2076 01:51:25,240 --> 01:51:28,640 Speaker 1: they come off of that, you know, they've elevated their 2077 01:51:28,680 --> 01:51:32,200 Speaker 1: game level and somebody in the AFC West has to 2078 01:51:32,280 --> 01:51:34,559 Speaker 1: come in last. Somebody does, and I think it's gonna 2079 01:51:34,560 --> 01:51:37,720 Speaker 1: be the Chargers. It's not gonna be dead man. Yeah, 2080 01:51:38,240 --> 01:51:39,960 Speaker 1: I think so. I'm gonna go with Vegas to win 2081 01:51:40,080 --> 01:51:43,160 Speaker 1: this game. Okay, so I'm changing the lack to Vegas 2082 01:51:43,280 --> 01:51:48,040 Speaker 1: on your Sunday four twenty five. Green Bay at Minnesota. 2083 01:51:48,439 --> 01:51:51,439 Speaker 1: I can't get enough for those division games. Green Bay 2084 01:51:51,640 --> 01:51:55,200 Speaker 1: gotta have something by one and a half. No, that's true, 2085 01:51:56,200 --> 01:52:01,400 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins. I mean, obviously great player. I had had 2086 01:52:01,439 --> 01:52:03,880 Speaker 1: to do that. I mean, you gotta love their their 2087 01:52:03,920 --> 01:52:06,720 Speaker 1: weaponry though around him. Kind of an interesting you know, 2088 01:52:06,800 --> 01:52:08,680 Speaker 1: with Aaron Rodgers losing some of his guys, having some 2089 01:52:08,800 --> 01:52:11,320 Speaker 1: rookies come in, Christian Watson, guy we liked them to draft. 2090 01:52:12,880 --> 01:52:14,639 Speaker 1: At this point, it's it's still too hard to pick 2091 01:52:14,640 --> 01:52:17,040 Speaker 1: against Green Bay. I'm gonna I'm gonna take them, and 2092 01:52:17,320 --> 01:52:22,280 Speaker 1: I'll lay those points. Yep, I'm gonna go Aaron Rodgers 2093 01:52:22,400 --> 01:52:27,680 Speaker 1: for sure. I will take Minnesota at home. In the 2094 01:52:27,800 --> 01:52:32,360 Speaker 1: opener to big Kirk Cousins fan, well, I think at 2095 01:52:32,439 --> 01:52:35,639 Speaker 1: home they're there. They always give Green Bay tough time 2096 01:52:35,760 --> 01:52:38,519 Speaker 1: in Minnesota, something they can't win in Lambeau. But I'll 2097 01:52:38,560 --> 01:52:41,360 Speaker 1: take them at home. Yeah, this is a toss up 2098 01:52:41,439 --> 01:52:44,960 Speaker 1: for me. I'll just go with Green Bay and are 2099 01:52:44,960 --> 01:52:47,920 Speaker 1: there points involved one and a half just to they'll 2100 01:52:47,960 --> 01:52:53,160 Speaker 1: cover two bold a Sunday night. You're quite strong at 2101 01:52:53,240 --> 01:52:58,760 Speaker 1: eight twenty Uh, Tampa Bay at Dallas, Tampa by two 2102 01:52:58,800 --> 01:53:04,200 Speaker 1: and a half two two. Uh. You know, I just 2103 01:53:04,320 --> 01:53:06,519 Speaker 1: I got I got kind of lukewarm feelings about Tampa 2104 01:53:06,600 --> 01:53:10,639 Speaker 1: Bay this year. Um, I wonder if they're going to backslide. Finally, 2105 01:53:11,120 --> 01:53:13,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Dallas in this one. It's gonna fall 2106 01:53:13,760 --> 01:53:18,120 Speaker 1: off a cliff. I think they win. I didn't say that. Um, 2107 01:53:23,760 --> 01:53:26,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Tampa. But then I can I give 2108 01:53:28,320 --> 01:53:32,679 Speaker 1: how do you so if if Dallas loses by two 2109 01:53:33,360 --> 01:53:37,720 Speaker 1: or one, you would win if you have Tampa to 2110 01:53:37,760 --> 01:53:40,080 Speaker 1: win the game. So if Dallas only loses by two 2111 01:53:40,120 --> 01:53:44,080 Speaker 1: points or one point, you would win both. Okay, it's 2112 01:53:44,120 --> 01:53:47,040 Speaker 1: a very small spread. So you want to take Dallas 2113 01:53:47,280 --> 01:53:50,759 Speaker 1: with the points? Yeah, okay, I'll take Tampa both ways. 2114 01:53:51,120 --> 01:53:53,680 Speaker 1: I kind of agree with Douce though. I'm really not 2115 01:53:54,120 --> 01:53:56,040 Speaker 1: sure what you're gonna get from the Bucks based on 2116 01:53:56,160 --> 01:53:59,439 Speaker 1: that preseason. Right, I got a lot of talents. Still, 2117 01:53:59,640 --> 01:54:03,360 Speaker 1: I'll be wrong believing that Brady will continue to play well. Yeah, 2118 01:54:03,479 --> 01:54:06,080 Speaker 1: I'd rather do that than kick myself saying what am 2119 01:54:06,080 --> 01:54:09,720 Speaker 1: I doing? Doubting Brady, Right, I'm gonna doubt him, and 2120 01:54:09,760 --> 01:54:13,439 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Dallas. Uh. They're another fast starter team, 2121 01:54:13,560 --> 01:54:18,240 Speaker 1: so absolutely. Although Dallas's home record is is unusually average, 2122 01:54:18,760 --> 01:54:21,400 Speaker 1: it's not as they don't have the home field advantage 2123 01:54:21,400 --> 01:54:24,599 Speaker 1: you would think they would at that mecca. It's pretty average. 2124 01:54:24,640 --> 01:54:29,599 Speaker 1: But I'll go with Dallas. Monday Night on Embry sure, Uh, 2125 01:54:29,760 --> 01:54:34,920 Speaker 1: Denver if a rare road game at Seattle. This is 2126 01:54:34,960 --> 01:54:38,000 Speaker 1: the Monday night game. Yeah, so that's ESPN correct? Oh 2127 01:54:38,200 --> 01:54:41,680 Speaker 1: is it? Oh? Yeah, the other one was correct Sunday Night. 2128 01:54:42,080 --> 01:54:46,400 Speaker 1: I just want to make sure case people. Sometimes early 2129 01:54:46,480 --> 01:54:48,480 Speaker 1: in the season there's two Monday night games, they don't 2130 01:54:48,520 --> 01:54:50,320 Speaker 1: They don't do that this year it's only one. So yeah, 2131 01:54:50,320 --> 01:54:52,640 Speaker 1: but don't be confused because this Joe Buck, Troy Aikman, 2132 01:54:52,680 --> 01:54:54,760 Speaker 1: please assalters. You might think you're watching Fox, you're not. 2133 01:54:55,680 --> 01:54:59,960 Speaker 1: You might, but you're not. The Russell Wilson Bowl. Yeah 2134 01:55:00,200 --> 01:55:05,760 Speaker 1: that's true. Um, I find it hard. Sorry, and hey, yeah, 2135 01:55:06,120 --> 01:55:08,920 Speaker 1: I find it hard not to pick denver Um even 2136 01:55:08,960 --> 01:55:11,120 Speaker 1: though I do think that they're the last place team 2137 01:55:11,280 --> 01:55:13,920 Speaker 1: in the ANFC West this year. Um, but it's just 2138 01:55:14,040 --> 01:55:16,240 Speaker 1: hard with what Seattle's got, so I'm gonna take Denver 2139 01:55:16,760 --> 01:55:21,960 Speaker 1: both ways, same team wrestle and Siah Yeah, I um, 2140 01:55:23,720 --> 01:55:25,280 Speaker 1: I think Seattle is going to be in for a 2141 01:55:25,400 --> 01:55:28,000 Speaker 1: really long season. I'll take Denver both ways. I am too, 2142 01:55:28,040 --> 01:55:31,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Denver both ways. Um, now, Tamara, we 2143 01:55:31,920 --> 01:55:35,200 Speaker 1: go back. I went this way with my hand when 2144 01:55:35,240 --> 01:55:38,520 Speaker 1: we skip over. Now I'm gonna go back. But she's 2145 01:55:38,560 --> 01:55:45,960 Speaker 1: just one o'clock to Miami hosting the Patriots. One o'clock game. 2146 01:55:47,240 --> 01:55:50,400 Speaker 1: Miami by three and a half. So now you get 2147 01:55:50,480 --> 01:55:52,960 Speaker 1: three points for being at home, so it's really a half. 2148 01:55:54,160 --> 01:55:57,840 Speaker 1: Why you trend, You're confusing her even more when you're 2149 01:55:57,880 --> 01:55:59,840 Speaker 1: the home team you get three points, She's gonna be 2150 01:56:00,280 --> 01:56:04,840 Speaker 1: wrapped up. Um. Yeah, you know. I look, I it's 2151 01:56:04,880 --> 01:56:06,600 Speaker 1: it's hard for me to pick the Patriots right here. 2152 01:56:06,600 --> 01:56:08,040 Speaker 1: I think if you look at the signs of the 2153 01:56:08,280 --> 01:56:11,240 Speaker 1: of the offseason that you know, most people probably will 2154 01:56:11,240 --> 01:56:13,480 Speaker 1: be correct and pick in Miami. But I'm not ready 2155 01:56:13,560 --> 01:56:15,240 Speaker 1: to turn my back on them just yet. I'm gonna 2156 01:56:15,240 --> 01:56:18,080 Speaker 1: pick the Patriots. Uh, in Week one, I think they're 2157 01:56:18,120 --> 01:56:21,080 Speaker 1: gonna pull off, um a bit of an upset here 2158 01:56:21,240 --> 01:56:23,640 Speaker 1: down in Miami, get off to a good start. I'm 2159 01:56:23,640 --> 01:56:28,680 Speaker 1: gonna say Patriots twenty four to twenty. Sorry, it's one. 2160 01:56:28,760 --> 01:56:30,680 Speaker 1: We give a score for the Patriots game too. You 2161 01:56:30,760 --> 01:56:35,560 Speaker 1: have to give a score, Um, Miami twenty one seventeen. Okay, 2162 01:56:35,960 --> 01:56:38,440 Speaker 1: stick to what I said. So that means Miami covers 2163 01:56:38,480 --> 01:56:41,200 Speaker 1: as well Miami and covers for Tamara. How dare you? Yeah? 2164 01:56:41,320 --> 01:56:44,000 Speaker 1: I see it, h you know the same way. I 2165 01:56:44,080 --> 01:56:46,960 Speaker 1: think Miami, um looks like they're a little bit more 2166 01:56:47,040 --> 01:56:48,920 Speaker 1: prepared at the start of the season. And we'll see 2167 01:56:48,960 --> 01:56:51,120 Speaker 1: if the Patriots are playing a little ropea dope with 2168 01:56:51,200 --> 01:56:54,040 Speaker 1: everybody U and they're they're gonna be ready to go. 2169 01:56:54,200 --> 01:56:55,720 Speaker 1: But I just don't know how you can flip the 2170 01:56:55,800 --> 01:56:59,880 Speaker 1: switch with so many new parts and new pieces, changing 2171 01:57:00,080 --> 01:57:01,960 Speaker 1: offenses and all of a sudden go from what we 2172 01:57:02,080 --> 01:57:05,560 Speaker 1: saw and then change it dramatically. I think Miami wins 2173 01:57:05,600 --> 01:57:13,280 Speaker 1: twenty seven sixteen. So it's come down to this week one. 2174 01:57:14,280 --> 01:57:17,880 Speaker 1: How can I bet against the Patriots? Right? Um? I 2175 01:57:17,960 --> 01:57:19,560 Speaker 1: didn't think there was a chance, but I did give 2176 01:57:19,560 --> 01:57:21,960 Speaker 1: you the opening before I wrote it. I think I 2177 01:57:22,080 --> 01:57:25,640 Speaker 1: think you know, the Patriots have bonded, They've gone down early, 2178 01:57:25,720 --> 01:57:30,720 Speaker 1: They've bonded, uh Spartan, you know, like no accoutrement. They 2179 01:57:30,880 --> 01:57:33,760 Speaker 1: they had to just deal with what they had. They 2180 01:57:33,840 --> 01:57:36,200 Speaker 1: had to adapt, and that's what the season is going 2181 01:57:36,280 --> 01:57:39,240 Speaker 1: to be all about. Adapting. Every week, it's gonna see 2182 01:57:39,280 --> 01:57:42,920 Speaker 1: something different. Uh, this week, you're gonna see a win. 2183 01:57:43,280 --> 01:57:49,160 Speaker 1: Twenty eight nineteen Patriots win. Berman like score twenty eight nineteen. 2184 01:57:49,400 --> 01:57:54,520 Speaker 1: Twenty eight nineteen Patriots win this game. You know, this 2185 01:57:54,760 --> 01:57:57,720 Speaker 1: four game stretch is a good test. I don't think 2186 01:57:57,720 --> 01:58:00,680 Speaker 1: they're gonna win all four, but this one I think 2187 01:58:00,680 --> 01:58:03,320 Speaker 1: they're gonna win. They're gonna win this one in Miami. 2188 01:58:03,640 --> 01:58:05,920 Speaker 1: I like it so twenty eight nineteen. And you notice 2189 01:58:05,920 --> 01:58:09,000 Speaker 1: how tomorrow we just did sixteen games and I end 2190 01:58:09,440 --> 01:58:11,840 Speaker 1: just in time for the end of the show.
