It is is Wednesday 42 00:02:27,394 --> 00:02:30,874 Speaker 7: here at Gillette Stadium, a very rainy Gelette Stadium. Yeah. 43 00:02:30,954 --> 00:02:33,154 Speaker 7: We're getting Noah's Ark type rain today. 44 00:02:33,234 --> 00:02:36,194 Speaker 5: Yeah, we need it, you know, at what point? Yeah, 45 00:02:36,194 --> 00:02:37,914 Speaker 5: I was gonna say, at what point do we need 46 00:02:37,914 --> 00:02:41,554 Speaker 5: to get enough? But yeah, it's it's pretty it's pretty wet. 47 00:02:41,594 --> 00:02:46,674 Speaker 5: Fairly practicing in the bubble today. You know, just heard 48 00:02:46,674 --> 00:02:52,474 Speaker 5: from Gerrod Mao and some captains and Drake May. Nothing 49 00:02:52,514 --> 00:02:55,514 Speaker 5: earth shattering, you know, the typical bye week fair. I 50 00:02:55,554 --> 00:02:57,634 Speaker 5: was a little surprised. Drake May got asked a lot 51 00:02:57,634 --> 00:03:01,154 Speaker 5: of questions about belichick possibility to North Carolina, And I 52 00:03:01,194 --> 00:03:04,114 Speaker 5: wasn't surprised that he was asked a question about it, but. 53 00:03:05,554 --> 00:03:07,114 Speaker 7: You know, it was like, what was his answer because 54 00:03:07,114 --> 00:03:07,674 Speaker 7: I didn't see it. 55 00:03:07,714 --> 00:03:10,314 Speaker 5: Well, just you know, obviously you know, Hall of Fame 56 00:03:10,394 --> 00:03:12,354 Speaker 5: coach and that's a great place. You know, if he 57 00:03:12,434 --> 00:03:14,474 Speaker 5: ends up in Chapel Hill, that'd be exciting and they'll 58 00:03:14,474 --> 00:03:16,834 Speaker 5: love him down there. You know, good answer, But like 59 00:03:16,954 --> 00:03:20,914 Speaker 5: people realize that he it's certainly possible that he's never 60 00:03:20,954 --> 00:03:24,354 Speaker 5: even met Bill Belichick, right, It's not like he was. 61 00:03:24,794 --> 00:03:26,594 Speaker 7: Like his coach, right, right. 62 00:03:27,194 --> 00:03:29,674 Speaker 5: So I just thought there was a lot of questions 63 00:03:29,914 --> 00:03:34,514 Speaker 5: regarding specifically Belichick to North Carolina to Drake, Yeah, you know, 64 00:03:34,554 --> 00:03:36,914 Speaker 5: and then you know other stuff. But you know, Hunter 65 00:03:36,994 --> 00:03:41,994 Speaker 5: Henry talked, you know, just about some things with the 66 00:03:41,994 --> 00:03:45,234 Speaker 5: theme today, I would say, was trying to build some momentum, 67 00:03:45,434 --> 00:03:47,514 Speaker 5: you know, for the stretch drive, and it's important to 68 00:03:47,514 --> 00:03:50,954 Speaker 5: win some games, to get some sort of validity to 69 00:03:50,994 --> 00:03:52,954 Speaker 5: what they're doing, why they're putting all this hard work in. 70 00:03:53,074 --> 00:03:54,794 Speaker 7: Yeah, so were you in the locker room at all 71 00:03:54,834 --> 00:03:55,194 Speaker 7: A little bit? 72 00:03:55,274 --> 00:03:56,714 Speaker 5: No, they're going to the locker room right now. 73 00:03:56,674 --> 00:03:59,154 Speaker 7: Right now. So I was just wondering, you know, I'll 74 00:03:59,194 --> 00:04:02,474 Speaker 7: ask Evan Induce as well, but like, what's what is 75 00:04:02,474 --> 00:04:05,234 Speaker 7: the mood coming back off the buyer guys and energetic? 76 00:04:05,274 --> 00:04:07,554 Speaker 7: Are they like, you know, like, what is what is 77 00:04:07,594 --> 00:04:07,994 Speaker 7: the mood? 78 00:04:08,154 --> 00:04:10,354 Speaker 5: Yeah? I didn't notice any difference with the three player 79 00:04:10,354 --> 00:04:13,434 Speaker 5: we talked to, Henry Wise and and Drake may I 80 00:04:13,514 --> 00:04:17,594 Speaker 5: didn't notice really any mood, you know, no mood swings 81 00:04:17,714 --> 00:04:22,234 Speaker 5: or anything like that. But I just feel like they 82 00:04:22,514 --> 00:04:25,193 Speaker 5: they understand that there's still something to play for here 83 00:04:25,354 --> 00:04:27,834 Speaker 5: even though they were eliminated from the playoffs, and there's 84 00:04:27,954 --> 00:04:29,873 Speaker 5: value in trying to finish strong. 85 00:04:29,993 --> 00:04:33,354 Speaker 7: Yep. Do you think there's any value, speaking of value 86 00:04:33,433 --> 00:04:37,833 Speaker 7: of Gerard Mayo naming Drake maya captain for these final 87 00:04:37,873 --> 00:04:40,274 Speaker 7: four games, any value. 88 00:04:39,914 --> 00:04:41,474 Speaker 5: In that he wasn't aware of it. 89 00:04:41,753 --> 00:04:44,593 Speaker 7: No, I didn't, Oh, all right, I didn't mean to 90 00:04:44,633 --> 00:04:47,873 Speaker 7: say that he did, Like if he did, if. 91 00:04:47,674 --> 00:04:53,154 Speaker 5: He did, if it was real, yeah, then I would say, yeah, 92 00:04:53,154 --> 00:04:56,594 Speaker 5: there's value that he If he did so much over 93 00:04:56,633 --> 00:04:59,793 Speaker 5: the first three months of the season that you felt 94 00:04:59,834 --> 00:05:01,394 Speaker 5: like you needed to name him a captain, I think 95 00:05:01,394 --> 00:05:01,953 Speaker 5: that would be you. 96 00:05:01,954 --> 00:05:05,113 Speaker 7: Know, because we talk about you know, if anything, these 97 00:05:05,474 --> 00:05:09,354 Speaker 7: final four games, you know, could be like something to 98 00:05:10,633 --> 00:05:13,113 Speaker 7: build a little momentum going into twenty twenty five. And 99 00:05:13,113 --> 00:05:15,354 Speaker 7: obviously the best way to do that is win some games, 100 00:05:15,714 --> 00:05:18,474 Speaker 7: but you know, playing better the camaraderie of the team, 101 00:05:18,513 --> 00:05:20,793 Speaker 7: the leadership of the team, and you know, you finish 102 00:05:20,914 --> 00:05:23,754 Speaker 7: off this season. Drake may our captain. He's a captain, 103 00:05:24,633 --> 00:05:25,514 Speaker 7: you know, I don't. 104 00:05:25,674 --> 00:05:28,353 Speaker 9: And then you go said, if he earned it, Yeah, 105 00:05:28,354 --> 00:05:30,634 Speaker 9: well that's if you earned the captain part of it. 106 00:05:30,714 --> 00:05:32,474 Speaker 7: Yeah. I don't believe he would do it if he 107 00:05:32,513 --> 00:05:34,433 Speaker 7: didn't feel he earned it, not just to do it, 108 00:05:34,474 --> 00:05:36,874 Speaker 7: but like he's done the things that I believe is 109 00:05:36,954 --> 00:05:40,193 Speaker 7: value in that. Yeah. Sure, all right, So this is suggestions, Rod, 110 00:05:40,274 --> 00:05:41,474 Speaker 7: if you if you want to take it. 111 00:05:42,474 --> 00:05:45,113 Speaker 5: So, but now you're saying two different things, Like we're 112 00:05:45,193 --> 00:05:47,513 Speaker 5: agreeing that like it has to be something that he's 113 00:05:47,674 --> 00:05:50,714 Speaker 5: sort of established himself, and now you're like, well, this 114 00:05:50,794 --> 00:05:54,394 Speaker 5: is a suggestion, as if he's done that. Has Drake 115 00:05:54,433 --> 00:05:54,954 Speaker 5: may done that? 116 00:05:55,034 --> 00:05:57,834 Speaker 7: I think he has? How do you know I think 117 00:05:57,873 --> 00:05:58,234 Speaker 7: he has? 118 00:05:58,274 --> 00:06:00,553 Speaker 5: I would have no idea. Okay, if he's like what 119 00:06:00,993 --> 00:06:02,594 Speaker 5: he's doing with his teammates and. 120 00:06:02,394 --> 00:06:05,394 Speaker 7: Okay, let me let me rephrase it. Then if he has, 121 00:06:05,553 --> 00:06:07,833 Speaker 7: I think he should name him a captain. Okay, I 122 00:06:07,873 --> 00:06:12,234 Speaker 7: mean I think it would help toward twenty twenty five, you. 123 00:06:12,193 --> 00:06:15,633 Speaker 5: Know, Yeah, I agree. I think there's value in that. 124 00:06:15,753 --> 00:06:17,794 Speaker 5: If that's something that he has just been such a 125 00:06:17,794 --> 00:06:20,514 Speaker 5: great leader that if you can't even wait till the 126 00:06:20,594 --> 00:06:21,954 Speaker 5: end of the year, you have to do it now, 127 00:06:22,034 --> 00:06:23,193 Speaker 5: I think there would be value in that. 128 00:06:23,313 --> 00:06:28,553 Speaker 7: Yeah. Absolutely, So, now I'll turn to Gerard again. If 129 00:06:28,753 --> 00:06:32,553 Speaker 7: if if you believe he's done what you know, you 130 00:06:32,674 --> 00:06:35,954 Speaker 7: consider captain worthy, go ahead and name him now. It'll 131 00:06:35,993 --> 00:06:39,594 Speaker 7: it'll be good for these last four games, you know, 132 00:06:39,873 --> 00:06:40,474 Speaker 7: now you can. 133 00:06:40,394 --> 00:06:43,234 Speaker 5: See, I mean, it'd be good for like Drake May 134 00:06:43,234 --> 00:06:46,474 Speaker 5: and the Patriots in the future. Yeah, I mean, he's basically, 135 00:06:46,794 --> 00:06:49,273 Speaker 5: you know, people ask the question, what's this team's identity 136 00:06:51,113 --> 00:06:55,074 Speaker 5: Drake May? Really right now, it's Drake May. So if 137 00:06:55,513 --> 00:06:59,553 Speaker 5: if he's pushing like you're talking about, that would be 138 00:06:59,794 --> 00:07:02,313 Speaker 5: a really good sign for the future that you have 139 00:07:02,394 --> 00:07:06,594 Speaker 5: a guy that gets it to that extent and you 140 00:07:06,674 --> 00:07:09,474 Speaker 5: and you recognize it, and he's the he's a leader, 141 00:07:09,474 --> 00:07:11,114 Speaker 5: and they're gonna and they're gonna follow him. 142 00:07:11,154 --> 00:07:15,273 Speaker 7: So so just now this made me think of another 143 00:07:15,314 --> 00:07:18,514 Speaker 7: thing because you just said something that, uh made me 144 00:07:18,554 --> 00:07:24,154 Speaker 7: think about this. The identity probably is Drake May and 145 00:07:24,194 --> 00:07:26,154 Speaker 7: I think you would. You could make the case out 146 00:07:26,194 --> 00:07:29,754 Speaker 7: on every team that had a great quarterback, the identity 147 00:07:29,794 --> 00:07:32,514 Speaker 7: of the team was the quarterback, going back to Joe Namath, 148 00:07:32,954 --> 00:07:36,434 Speaker 7: you know, the identic, John Elway, all these great quarterbacks, 149 00:07:36,914 --> 00:07:40,594 Speaker 7: with maybe the exception that in the early days, the 150 00:07:40,634 --> 00:07:44,033 Speaker 7: identity of this team, even with Brady was at least 151 00:07:44,154 --> 00:07:48,794 Speaker 7: co identity was Belichick, and that might have been an exception. 152 00:07:48,914 --> 00:07:52,114 Speaker 5: The first part of the dynasty was defense. Yeah, yeah, 153 00:07:52,234 --> 00:07:53,674 Speaker 5: I would say that that was even. 154 00:07:53,434 --> 00:07:56,194 Speaker 7: If and we're not saying that Brady wasn't great. 155 00:07:56,234 --> 00:08:00,114 Speaker 5: Pittsburgh's identity was defense, the Steel Curtain. Yeah yeah, I 156 00:08:00,114 --> 00:08:03,154 Speaker 5: mean it's not always the quarterback, but that's true generally. 157 00:08:02,874 --> 00:08:06,554 Speaker 7: I would say. But but but even then, like Terry 158 00:08:06,594 --> 00:08:09,033 Speaker 7: Bradshaw wasn't as great as these guys. 159 00:08:09,114 --> 00:08:11,514 Speaker 5: But he's a Hall of Fame quarterbacks. One of course 160 00:08:11,514 --> 00:08:12,833 Speaker 5: he should be one four super I. 161 00:08:12,834 --> 00:08:16,034 Speaker 7: Don't care the defense won those super He shouldn't be 162 00:08:16,074 --> 00:08:17,354 Speaker 7: a Hall of Fame quarterback. 163 00:08:18,234 --> 00:08:22,594 Speaker 9: Okay, but anyways, differs a different the Steelers identity wasn't 164 00:08:22,634 --> 00:08:25,954 Speaker 9: I don't think Steelers to me, the Steelers. 165 00:08:27,474 --> 00:08:29,154 Speaker 7: Teams with steel Cam and all that. 166 00:08:29,234 --> 00:08:32,474 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's why I brought it up. Yeah, I think 167 00:08:32,554 --> 00:08:38,594 Speaker 5: that more so than like that just the quarterback. It's offense, 168 00:08:38,674 --> 00:08:41,474 Speaker 5: like the Niners is like the West Coast offense with 169 00:08:41,554 --> 00:08:45,274 Speaker 5: Bill Walsh and you know Montana, right, you know, and 170 00:08:45,314 --> 00:08:47,994 Speaker 5: then it carried on with Steve Young. Like I think 171 00:08:48,074 --> 00:08:52,874 Speaker 5: right now, it's not really like an offensive. The offense system, 172 00:08:52,874 --> 00:08:53,514 Speaker 5: it's Drake May. 173 00:08:53,834 --> 00:08:58,354 Speaker 7: Kansas's Mahomes, The Bills are Josh Allen, the Bengals are 174 00:08:58,394 --> 00:09:02,514 Speaker 7: Joe Burrow. If you're a great quarterback, the identity of 175 00:09:02,554 --> 00:09:05,834 Speaker 7: the team, you take on that identity, right right, or 176 00:09:05,874 --> 00:09:06,834 Speaker 7: you create I agree. 177 00:09:06,874 --> 00:09:09,634 Speaker 5: But but but their offense that there are, like Kansas 178 00:09:09,634 --> 00:09:11,474 Speaker 5: City would be an exception. Now, But the other two 179 00:09:11,514 --> 00:09:14,874 Speaker 5: that you mentioned, Cincinnati and Buffalo, it's offense. Their offenses 180 00:09:14,954 --> 00:09:19,674 Speaker 5: are great. This isn't a great offense, But the identity 181 00:09:19,714 --> 00:09:21,794 Speaker 5: is Drake May because he's the only thing they have 182 00:09:21,874 --> 00:09:24,634 Speaker 5: going for them right now, you know, you know, going 183 00:09:24,674 --> 00:09:29,034 Speaker 5: into the future. So it's it's it's a little different. Yeah, 184 00:09:29,074 --> 00:09:31,114 Speaker 5: it's a little different to have a young guy like 185 00:09:31,194 --> 00:09:34,674 Speaker 5: that be the identity. And then I mean number two 186 00:09:34,794 --> 00:09:38,754 Speaker 5: is Gonzales, who's a second year guy, you know, so but. 187 00:09:38,794 --> 00:09:40,234 Speaker 7: He's such a soft spoken guy. 188 00:09:40,274 --> 00:09:43,114 Speaker 5: But it's just a little odd to have, you know, 189 00:09:43,234 --> 00:09:45,194 Speaker 5: nothing to really say, well, what you know, what are 190 00:09:45,194 --> 00:09:46,714 Speaker 5: you good at? What do you what can you hang 191 00:09:46,754 --> 00:09:47,194 Speaker 5: your hat on? 192 00:09:47,274 --> 00:09:47,434 Speaker 7: Right? 193 00:09:47,994 --> 00:09:48,354 Speaker 5: Nothing? 194 00:09:48,394 --> 00:09:48,674 Speaker 7: Really? 195 00:09:49,434 --> 00:09:52,713 Speaker 5: You know, they're not exceptionally good offensively or defensive. 196 00:09:52,354 --> 00:09:55,914 Speaker 7: Well, and that's the problem with teams that aren't good. 197 00:09:56,314 --> 00:09:59,314 Speaker 7: They lack an identity because they're not good and and so, 198 00:09:59,674 --> 00:10:03,034 Speaker 7: and you know, Gerond Mayo gets criticized because he says 199 00:10:03,394 --> 00:10:06,194 Speaker 7: it's probably going to be more than a year before 200 00:10:06,194 --> 00:10:10,794 Speaker 7: I can establish a culture here, you know, slash identity, 201 00:10:11,074 --> 00:10:13,954 Speaker 7: which I think he's just being honest. Until you start winning, 202 00:10:15,274 --> 00:10:18,714 Speaker 7: you're you're searching for an identity, you're searching for that culture, 203 00:10:19,274 --> 00:10:19,474 Speaker 7: you know. 204 00:10:20,034 --> 00:10:23,714 Speaker 5: Yeah, I agree, it's and it's hard because they just 205 00:10:23,914 --> 00:10:26,514 Speaker 5: they just, I don't think, my opinion, they just don't 206 00:10:26,554 --> 00:10:27,514 Speaker 5: have the horses to do it. 207 00:10:27,674 --> 00:10:32,434 Speaker 7: Yeah. So you know, you look around the league and 208 00:10:32,714 --> 00:10:38,074 Speaker 7: you look at the bottom feeders, the Panthers, US, the Raiders, 209 00:10:38,234 --> 00:10:42,114 Speaker 7: the Giant right now, these are all teams probably without identities, yep, 210 00:10:42,434 --> 00:10:46,154 Speaker 7: you know I would agree with that. Yeah, So with 211 00:10:46,314 --> 00:10:51,874 Speaker 7: winning comes your identity and you know, cures all everything 212 00:10:51,874 --> 00:10:54,794 Speaker 7: that's going on with your team. So that's what we 213 00:10:54,834 --> 00:10:55,634 Speaker 7: need to get back to. 214 00:10:57,314 --> 00:10:58,914 Speaker 5: It's not going to be easy. You didn't just you 215 00:10:58,954 --> 00:11:00,394 Speaker 5: didn't brighten my mood. I'll tell you that. 216 00:11:00,474 --> 00:11:03,074 Speaker 7: No, no, but but I think it again. It goes 217 00:11:03,074 --> 00:11:06,834 Speaker 7: back to the conversation of if Drake may you feel 218 00:11:06,914 --> 00:11:10,434 Speaker 7: he's got those leadership qualities, let's do it. Now make 219 00:11:10,474 --> 00:11:12,994 Speaker 7: him the captain. Now finish the season with him as 220 00:11:13,034 --> 00:11:13,554 Speaker 7: your captain. 221 00:11:15,154 --> 00:11:18,794 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, like I said, you can't force. 222 00:11:18,634 --> 00:11:20,474 Speaker 7: It though, No, no, no, I. 223 00:11:20,434 --> 00:11:22,274 Speaker 5: Can't force it. If it's that's the. 224 00:11:22,194 --> 00:11:26,874 Speaker 7: Big covey, it's deserved, that's the caveat it internally, and 225 00:11:26,994 --> 00:11:27,833 Speaker 7: we have not with you. 226 00:11:28,274 --> 00:11:30,834 Speaker 5: I'm with you, Like, if that's something that that he's 227 00:11:30,834 --> 00:11:32,834 Speaker 5: pressing for, that'd be a great development. 228 00:11:33,074 --> 00:11:37,314 Speaker 7: Yeah. So okay, see what your thoughts on there. 229 00:11:37,354 --> 00:11:39,914 Speaker 5: But even you know, like you know, big picture identity 230 00:11:40,794 --> 00:11:42,874 Speaker 5: you know is different because I agree with you, none 231 00:11:42,914 --> 00:11:45,514 Speaker 5: of those bad teams have a big picture identity. But 232 00:11:45,514 --> 00:11:49,834 Speaker 5: I would say, like right now, the Giants are just 233 00:11:49,874 --> 00:11:55,074 Speaker 5: a mess. Their identity is sort of sloppiness and competence. 234 00:11:55,354 --> 00:11:57,394 Speaker 5: Like you know, Dallas is injuries. 235 00:11:57,634 --> 00:11:57,794 Speaker 10: Yea. 236 00:11:58,194 --> 00:12:03,554 Speaker 5: Carolina's identity right now is they're becoming a party to 237 00:12:03,554 --> 00:12:06,394 Speaker 5: get it. They're becoming a pain in the assay. That's 238 00:12:06,394 --> 00:12:09,514 Speaker 5: that's kind of their identity is they're not that good. 239 00:12:09,714 --> 00:12:11,754 Speaker 5: I mean, it might be the worst roster in football. 240 00:12:11,874 --> 00:12:13,594 Speaker 5: We've talked about this during the course of the year. 241 00:12:13,914 --> 00:12:16,074 Speaker 5: They've sold off a lot of parts over the last 242 00:12:16,074 --> 00:12:18,754 Speaker 5: two years, so they don't They're not coming from a 243 00:12:19,474 --> 00:12:21,394 Speaker 5: very talented group. But you look at them and the 244 00:12:21,394 --> 00:12:24,554 Speaker 5: way they've played the last five weeks. They won a 245 00:12:24,594 --> 00:12:26,674 Speaker 5: couple of games over teams that are like them in 246 00:12:26,754 --> 00:12:29,794 Speaker 5: New Orleans and the Giants. Then they take Kansas City 247 00:12:29,834 --> 00:12:32,834 Speaker 5: to the buzzer. They lose in overtime to Tampa Bay 248 00:12:32,874 --> 00:12:34,554 Speaker 5: in a game they probably should have won. They were 249 00:12:34,594 --> 00:12:37,434 Speaker 5: in field goal ranging overtime when they fumbled, and then 250 00:12:37,474 --> 00:12:41,554 Speaker 5: they lose when their rookie receiver can't quite hold onto 251 00:12:41,594 --> 00:12:44,554 Speaker 5: a potential go ahead touchdown in the last minutes of Philadelphia. 252 00:12:44,794 --> 00:12:47,234 Speaker 5: Who's playing as well as anybody in football right now? 253 00:12:47,394 --> 00:12:50,394 Speaker 5: In Philadelphia, they're that team nobody. So their identity right 254 00:12:50,434 --> 00:12:53,394 Speaker 5: now is that the team that no one really, None 255 00:12:53,394 --> 00:12:55,154 Speaker 5: of the good teams really want to face down the 256 00:12:55,194 --> 00:12:57,514 Speaker 5: stretch because they're they're scrappy. 257 00:12:57,114 --> 00:13:01,074 Speaker 7: Yep, yep. And like you said, Cowboys identity is kind 258 00:13:01,074 --> 00:13:02,474 Speaker 7: of like good talent. 259 00:13:02,274 --> 00:13:04,514 Speaker 5: Last year, you know, the injuries killed them. 260 00:13:04,554 --> 00:13:07,154 Speaker 7: But over the course of like the last twenty years, 261 00:13:07,394 --> 00:13:09,713 Speaker 7: talented team that can never do it in the playoffs, 262 00:13:10,274 --> 00:13:14,874 Speaker 7: you know, and they earn that, they earn that identity. 263 00:13:14,994 --> 00:13:15,274 Speaker 10: Yeah. 264 00:13:15,314 --> 00:13:18,554 Speaker 5: So, and that's like a big picture identity. Yeah, you know, 265 00:13:18,594 --> 00:13:21,194 Speaker 5: if you're going like year to year, you know, like 266 00:13:21,474 --> 00:13:23,914 Speaker 5: you know, Chicago's identity, you know, like they lost the 267 00:13:23,994 --> 00:13:27,154 Speaker 5: coach then you know, the quarterback is kind of you know, 268 00:13:28,034 --> 00:13:30,674 Speaker 5: trying to learn by himself because he has no guidance 269 00:13:30,994 --> 00:13:33,194 Speaker 5: that you know, and it's it's a work in progress. 270 00:13:33,794 --> 00:13:35,354 Speaker 5: Like what is the Patriot's identity? 271 00:13:35,394 --> 00:13:37,714 Speaker 7: Well, if you're going to talk about it in those terms, 272 00:13:37,754 --> 00:13:42,514 Speaker 7: the identity that's your perception right now is the perception 273 00:13:42,594 --> 00:13:44,794 Speaker 7: of your team is your identity right now. And the 274 00:13:44,834 --> 00:13:47,914 Speaker 7: perception of the team is it's not a well coached team. 275 00:13:48,194 --> 00:13:53,634 Speaker 7: That's what people are saying. And why they're not doing 276 00:13:53,674 --> 00:13:58,514 Speaker 7: well is because I think it's you know, and honestly, 277 00:13:58,634 --> 00:14:00,554 Speaker 7: it has to do with their roster as well. But 278 00:14:00,594 --> 00:14:03,594 Speaker 7: I think I think the perception out there that's being 279 00:14:03,634 --> 00:14:06,194 Speaker 7: given to the Patriots has to do with leadership. 280 00:14:06,354 --> 00:14:08,194 Speaker 5: Yeah. And you know one of the things that I 281 00:14:08,234 --> 00:14:10,594 Speaker 5: know that that bugs you yesterday because you mentioned it 282 00:14:10,674 --> 00:14:14,634 Speaker 5: about you know, the Greg Bodard stuff that was circulating 283 00:14:14,714 --> 00:14:17,074 Speaker 5: and I'm like, I said, I can't read that stuff. 284 00:14:17,074 --> 00:14:18,914 Speaker 5: So I don't know exactly what he wrote. 285 00:14:19,154 --> 00:14:21,514 Speaker 7: Well, he was on your show for he talked about it. 286 00:14:21,634 --> 00:14:24,874 Speaker 5: I wasn't there, so know no, but pl I'm here, 287 00:14:24,914 --> 00:14:28,514 Speaker 5: wor's on your internet, It's on my internet. 288 00:14:28,554 --> 00:14:30,554 Speaker 7: Felder had a whole segment where all he did was 289 00:14:30,594 --> 00:14:33,274 Speaker 7: ask him about that report, and and Pepper wrim with 290 00:14:33,394 --> 00:14:34,554 Speaker 7: questions about the report. 291 00:14:34,954 --> 00:14:38,954 Speaker 5: So there was a question. Karen Grigian asked Gerard a 292 00:14:39,074 --> 00:14:43,594 Speaker 5: question I took from that about, you know, on that 293 00:14:43,714 --> 00:14:47,634 Speaker 5: topic based on and I think she asked, do you 294 00:14:47,634 --> 00:14:50,274 Speaker 5: feel like you're being evaluated in these last four games? 295 00:14:50,354 --> 00:14:52,154 Speaker 5: I think that's how she asked it, and he just said, 296 00:14:52,194 --> 00:14:53,834 Speaker 5: you know, we're all we're all being evaluated. 297 00:14:53,834 --> 00:14:56,274 Speaker 7: Good question was that he should It. 298 00:14:56,154 --> 00:14:57,954 Speaker 5: Wasn't you know, are you coaching for your job? It 299 00:14:57,994 --> 00:15:00,474 Speaker 5: wasn't like this big oh, got youa kind of question, 300 00:15:01,634 --> 00:15:05,394 Speaker 5: solid professional reporter question, and he answered it, I think 301 00:15:05,834 --> 00:15:08,634 Speaker 5: we're all being evaluated. And that was it, you know, 302 00:15:08,754 --> 00:15:12,954 Speaker 5: no long wind answer, just straight to the point. But 303 00:15:13,074 --> 00:15:15,194 Speaker 5: the straight to the point part kind of struck me 304 00:15:15,274 --> 00:15:18,074 Speaker 5: because my guess is he was like you and kind 305 00:15:18,074 --> 00:15:22,074 Speaker 5: of annoyed with all that noise yesterday that you're talking about. 306 00:15:22,114 --> 00:15:26,874 Speaker 7: I like, if I'm reading the b and I'm assuming 307 00:15:26,914 --> 00:15:30,274 Speaker 7: it's all true, who are these people in the organization 308 00:15:30,354 --> 00:15:33,674 Speaker 7: that are saying this stuff? Because he cites several people 309 00:15:34,034 --> 00:15:37,594 Speaker 7: within the organization, right, Who the hell is he talking about? 310 00:15:37,834 --> 00:15:39,514 Speaker 5: Right? It's like, and I know we don't want to 311 00:15:39,514 --> 00:15:41,314 Speaker 5: take this into a Red Sox thing, but like, I 312 00:15:41,354 --> 00:15:42,874 Speaker 5: don't know if you've been paying attention to any of 313 00:15:42,914 --> 00:15:43,914 Speaker 5: this free agent stuff. 314 00:15:44,154 --> 00:15:45,754 Speaker 7: I know the Red Sox didn't get any. 315 00:15:45,634 --> 00:15:48,714 Speaker 5: No Well, supposedly they're interested in getting Alex Bregmant. And 316 00:15:48,754 --> 00:15:52,114 Speaker 5: now there's a story that Sean McAdam, you know, another 317 00:15:52,154 --> 00:15:55,914 Speaker 5: well respected reporter, longtime Red Sox guy. He says that 318 00:15:56,194 --> 00:16:00,914 Speaker 5: Sam Kennedy and Alex Cora the are in favor of it, 319 00:16:00,954 --> 00:16:05,274 Speaker 5: but Craig Breslow, the New GM is not well. I 320 00:16:05,274 --> 00:16:07,554 Speaker 5: don't think he's making that up. Someone's telling him that. 321 00:16:08,514 --> 00:16:12,474 Speaker 5: Why would someone tell somebody, you know, someone outside the 322 00:16:12,514 --> 00:16:15,394 Speaker 5: organization that people are split in the organization. 323 00:16:15,114 --> 00:16:17,074 Speaker 7: Unless he's talked to all three and they told him 324 00:16:17,114 --> 00:16:18,034 Speaker 7: himself themselves. 325 00:16:18,154 --> 00:16:21,794 Speaker 5: But you know, I just like, it's it's just bad 326 00:16:21,994 --> 00:16:24,354 Speaker 5: to not appear to be on the same page. 327 00:16:24,434 --> 00:16:29,914 Speaker 7: Yeah, who are these I don't know. It's just it's 328 00:16:30,034 --> 00:16:32,954 Speaker 7: just not good. It's not good to have this type of. 329 00:16:34,474 --> 00:16:35,314 Speaker 5: It's not been good. 330 00:16:35,394 --> 00:16:36,434 Speaker 7: It's not good right now. 331 00:16:36,714 --> 00:16:37,114 Speaker 5: Not good. 332 00:16:37,194 --> 00:16:40,914 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's this this back channel stuff. And listen, I 333 00:16:41,434 --> 00:16:45,154 Speaker 7: do I think Do I think Mayo's being evaluated? Absolutely? 334 00:16:45,474 --> 00:16:50,394 Speaker 7: Of course he is. Of course he is. Everybody on 335 00:16:50,474 --> 00:16:56,394 Speaker 7: the squad is being evaluated, coaches, players, front office. 336 00:16:57,914 --> 00:17:02,154 Speaker 5: I think that based on what you're talking about, Bard 337 00:17:02,274 --> 00:17:04,154 Speaker 5: is saying more than they're being evaluated. 338 00:17:04,234 --> 00:17:08,194 Speaker 7: Oh yeah, that's yeah. But but like I said, I 339 00:17:08,474 --> 00:17:10,833 Speaker 7: might have said it on the show or made I 340 00:17:10,834 --> 00:17:13,474 Speaker 7: don't think it's a headline that if Robert Kraft comes 341 00:17:13,513 --> 00:17:16,353 Speaker 7: to the realization that he made the wrong choice, that 342 00:17:16,394 --> 00:17:17,394 Speaker 7: he wouldn't hesitate. 343 00:17:17,474 --> 00:17:20,073 Speaker 5: Well, what you're you're telling me? The stuff that Bdard 344 00:17:20,154 --> 00:17:24,874 Speaker 5: said yesterday was if he if they don't play well, 345 00:17:24,874 --> 00:17:25,593 Speaker 5: down the show stretch. 346 00:17:25,634 --> 00:17:26,073 Speaker 7: He could go. 347 00:17:27,793 --> 00:17:31,033 Speaker 5: No, that's I mean, that's what's on Twitter. I like 348 00:17:31,073 --> 00:17:32,754 Speaker 5: I said, I don't read it because I can't. I 349 00:17:32,754 --> 00:17:33,914 Speaker 5: can't read behind it because. 350 00:17:33,754 --> 00:17:36,234 Speaker 7: I think, Yeah, to me, that's taking it to the 351 00:17:36,273 --> 00:17:38,754 Speaker 7: next step. That's not what Baguards necessarily saying. 352 00:17:38,833 --> 00:17:41,353 Speaker 5: Okay, well that's the way it's I know written about. 353 00:17:41,434 --> 00:17:43,073 Speaker 7: I know he said if. 354 00:17:42,954 --> 00:17:46,273 Speaker 5: They get blown out down the stretch and they don't play. 355 00:17:46,073 --> 00:17:48,513 Speaker 7: Well, well, no, that's different. He could go. 356 00:17:48,674 --> 00:17:50,033 Speaker 5: That's he didn't say he would go. 357 00:17:50,114 --> 00:17:52,074 Speaker 7: He said he could he could go. He could go. 358 00:17:52,394 --> 00:17:56,474 Speaker 7: What's anything can happen. I don't think I'm I'm I 359 00:17:56,513 --> 00:17:58,393 Speaker 7: don't think I'm here to tell you Gerardmeyo is going 360 00:17:58,474 --> 00:17:59,954 Speaker 7: to be the head coach of the Patriots in twenty 361 00:17:59,994 --> 00:18:00,394 Speaker 7: twenty five. 362 00:18:00,434 --> 00:18:02,273 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not as strong as you, but I feel this. 363 00:18:02,513 --> 00:18:04,793 Speaker 5: I feel similar. I'm just not willing to say, like 364 00:18:04,874 --> 00:18:05,833 Speaker 5: this is what's going to happen. 365 00:18:05,874 --> 00:18:08,154 Speaker 7: But at the same time, yes, he is being evaluated, 366 00:18:08,474 --> 00:18:11,793 Speaker 7: just like every position coaches, every coordinator is. 367 00:18:12,033 --> 00:18:15,114 Speaker 5: He has no chance to go, what's the evaluation. 368 00:18:15,353 --> 00:18:17,353 Speaker 7: Because it's all part of the picture. After you know 369 00:18:17,434 --> 00:18:19,474 Speaker 7: two years, you don't throw away the frist. It's all 370 00:18:19,593 --> 00:18:23,234 Speaker 7: part of the overall evaluation. Everybody gets evaluated every year. 371 00:18:23,273 --> 00:18:26,114 Speaker 7: How'd you do? But the evaluation you need to approve, 372 00:18:26,553 --> 00:18:29,434 Speaker 7: like what are your strengths, what are your weaknesses? After 373 00:18:29,474 --> 00:18:32,113 Speaker 7: one year, like what do you need to work on? 374 00:18:32,714 --> 00:18:35,513 Speaker 5: So this is nothing different. Then this is just regular, right, 375 00:18:35,553 --> 00:18:37,794 Speaker 5: So you're not putting any stock in this report at all? 376 00:18:39,234 --> 00:18:41,593 Speaker 7: No, not really, I'm kind of with you. 377 00:18:41,714 --> 00:18:43,033 Speaker 5: Yeah, I just want to see if I could start 378 00:18:43,033 --> 00:18:43,513 Speaker 5: an argument. 379 00:18:43,513 --> 00:18:47,313 Speaker 7: I couldn't because now you say, oh yeah, after ten years, 380 00:18:47,353 --> 00:18:49,394 Speaker 7: I don't think Belichick got evaluated every year. 381 00:18:49,474 --> 00:18:53,433 Speaker 5: No, but like everything you do is evaluated. But I 382 00:18:53,593 --> 00:18:57,273 Speaker 5: like saying it's evaluated as his job security. You're saying 383 00:18:57,313 --> 00:19:00,154 Speaker 5: it's just a valuation, yes, And I kind of agree 384 00:19:00,194 --> 00:19:02,674 Speaker 5: with you. I don't think. I don't think there's more 385 00:19:02,674 --> 00:19:04,553 Speaker 5: than a one percent chance that he's not the coach 386 00:19:04,593 --> 00:19:06,114 Speaker 5: next year, right, I really don't. 387 00:19:06,553 --> 00:19:06,714 Speaker 7: Right. 388 00:19:07,154 --> 00:19:09,673 Speaker 5: I don't like to say zero because every time I do, 389 00:19:09,833 --> 00:19:11,154 Speaker 5: I end up with my foot in my mouth. 390 00:19:12,313 --> 00:19:15,513 Speaker 7: Yeah, so it is what it is. I think. I think, 391 00:19:16,634 --> 00:19:20,553 Speaker 7: you know, you can take a statement and you know, 392 00:19:20,634 --> 00:19:22,714 Speaker 7: turn it into this whole thing, which is I think 393 00:19:22,754 --> 00:19:23,394 Speaker 7: what happened. 394 00:19:24,914 --> 00:19:29,034 Speaker 5: Yeah, but you know, I thought that Gerard's answer was 395 00:19:29,154 --> 00:19:31,633 Speaker 5: the right answer. No need to get into these long, 396 00:19:31,833 --> 00:19:35,554 Speaker 5: defensive kind of yeah you know, please, No, we're all 397 00:19:35,553 --> 00:19:38,873 Speaker 5: being evaluated, were being always and that's the way you 398 00:19:38,914 --> 00:19:42,234 Speaker 5: should take it. Absolutely, No one should be too comfortable, 399 00:19:42,874 --> 00:19:45,274 Speaker 5: especially you. I don't get too comfortable. 400 00:19:45,273 --> 00:19:47,193 Speaker 7: I'm on a hot seat, Paul. I don't know if 401 00:19:47,234 --> 00:19:48,113 Speaker 7: you knew that, but I'm. 402 00:19:47,994 --> 00:19:49,714 Speaker 5: On the hot You're on the coolest of seats. 403 00:19:49,754 --> 00:19:50,474 Speaker 7: I don't know about that. 404 00:19:50,874 --> 00:19:55,393 Speaker 5: You can't go anywhere my age. 405 00:19:54,394 --> 00:19:56,794 Speaker 7: My contract, even though I don't have one. 406 00:19:56,833 --> 00:20:00,553 Speaker 5: We all know based on now. I was going to 407 00:20:00,593 --> 00:20:01,593 Speaker 5: say something that would have gotten me. 408 00:20:01,634 --> 00:20:04,834 Speaker 7: In trouble, but no, I feel the heat. 409 00:20:05,634 --> 00:20:09,633 Speaker 5: Well it's good to feel the heat, not really up 410 00:20:09,634 --> 00:20:09,954 Speaker 5: at night. 411 00:20:10,073 --> 00:20:12,234 Speaker 7: Eight five five PATS five hundred is the ace ticket 412 00:20:12,273 --> 00:20:16,274 Speaker 7: outline podcasts at Patriots dot Com is the email address. 413 00:20:17,394 --> 00:20:20,714 Speaker 7: And I just want to remind everyone that you need 414 00:20:20,793 --> 00:20:24,754 Speaker 7: to agree to the ferry on.

So I haven't heard from Alex on 418 00:20:34,434 --> 00:20:36,394 Speaker 7: what she's got cooking for this week, but I'm sure 419 00:20:36,434 --> 00:20:37,114 Speaker 7: it's pretty good. 420 00:20:37,674 --> 00:20:43,194 Speaker 5: No, I haven't heard anything tough, tough, tough coming off 421 00:20:43,194 --> 00:20:46,313 Speaker 5: the buy. Yeah, there's a lot like a lot of 422 00:20:46,353 --> 00:20:50,754 Speaker 5: Belichick talk yesterday. Yeah, although we were we definitely put 423 00:20:50,754 --> 00:20:52,634 Speaker 5: that aside when you had to leave and you had 424 00:20:52,634 --> 00:20:54,393 Speaker 5: to go to your meeting, it was like Fred's not 425 00:20:54,474 --> 00:20:56,313 Speaker 5: here to save us, So we're going to move on 426 00:20:56,353 --> 00:20:58,593 Speaker 5: from the Bell. We heard anything lately on that, so 427 00:20:58,874 --> 00:21:03,073 Speaker 5: I have some thoughts. There was something early this morning 428 00:21:03,114 --> 00:21:06,593 Speaker 5: I heard some TV station was reporting that North Carolina 429 00:21:06,674 --> 00:21:09,793 Speaker 5: had offered him the job. This coming on the heels 430 00:21:09,833 --> 00:21:13,273 Speaker 5: of the reports yesterday that said that Belichick had formed 431 00:21:13,273 --> 00:21:16,793 Speaker 5: North Carolina that he would accept the job yep, you know, 432 00:21:16,914 --> 00:21:23,154 Speaker 5: under his parameters, which include evidently a four hundred page manifesto. However, 433 00:21:23,793 --> 00:21:27,194 Speaker 5: I'm starting to think it's all of a I mean, yeah, 434 00:21:27,793 --> 00:21:30,714 Speaker 5: like I don't. I mean, it kind of sounds like 435 00:21:30,754 --> 00:21:35,553 Speaker 5: it's going to happen, So maybe maybe it will. But 436 00:21:36,234 --> 00:21:39,474 Speaker 5: I'm wondering, like, to me, this all weeks of everything 437 00:21:39,513 --> 00:21:42,754 Speaker 5: that we've all the information that we've learned has come 438 00:21:42,754 --> 00:21:44,833 Speaker 5: from the Belichick side, because I don't see what's in 439 00:21:44,874 --> 00:21:51,113 Speaker 5: it for North Carolina and based on like Mike Lombardi's 440 00:21:51,553 --> 00:21:54,594 Speaker 5: you know, comments and whatnot. I think that what what 441 00:21:54,634 --> 00:21:58,674 Speaker 5: Bill might be doing is what everybody's talking about, making 442 00:21:58,714 --> 00:22:00,633 Speaker 5: it known to the NFL, like if you want me, 443 00:22:01,073 --> 00:22:04,234 Speaker 5: contact me now, or I'm going to take this job, right, 444 00:22:04,434 --> 00:22:08,754 Speaker 5: And he's gonna make it look like they offered me 445 00:22:08,833 --> 00:22:12,673 Speaker 5: the job, right, But I didn't take it because I 446 00:22:12,754 --> 00:22:16,394 Speaker 5: wanted a coach in the NFL, right just in case, 447 00:22:16,954 --> 00:22:19,914 Speaker 5: you know, because I don't see why North Carolina would 448 00:22:19,914 --> 00:22:21,873 Speaker 5: have said, oh ye, we offered. There was a report 449 00:22:21,954 --> 00:22:23,833 Speaker 5: yesterday that he said he would take the job. 450 00:22:24,313 --> 00:22:27,433 Speaker 9: So if you're offering a job, But I do, I 451 00:22:27,474 --> 00:22:29,433 Speaker 9: do think what's the whole I do well, I do 452 00:22:29,513 --> 00:22:33,274 Speaker 9: think the romance might be real in that it's an 453 00:22:33,273 --> 00:22:36,194 Speaker 9: opening and I haven't heard of any other candidates that 454 00:22:36,273 --> 00:22:37,513 Speaker 9: North Carolina's talking to. 455 00:22:37,634 --> 00:22:38,714 Speaker 7: Don't you think that would get out? 456 00:22:38,754 --> 00:22:40,234 Speaker 5: Well, they've had a couple that turned him down. 457 00:22:40,353 --> 00:22:40,833 Speaker 7: Oh really? 458 00:22:40,954 --> 00:22:41,154 Speaker 10: Yeah? 459 00:22:41,194 --> 00:22:43,273 Speaker 7: Oh then I stand corrected. 460 00:22:43,674 --> 00:22:48,033 Speaker 9: Yeah, so people have turned down the job that Belichick. 461 00:22:48,793 --> 00:22:51,634 Speaker 7: Oh yeah, yeah, I forget. Now. 462 00:22:51,714 --> 00:22:54,954 Speaker 5: There was one in particular that it was a name, well, yeah, 463 00:22:55,033 --> 00:22:59,873 Speaker 5: well known guy. Oh Arthur Smith. Okay, Arthur Smith is 464 00:22:59,874 --> 00:23:02,994 Speaker 5: a North Carolina guy, And he said he had no interest. Okay, 465 00:23:03,273 --> 00:23:04,754 Speaker 5: that was the one guy I was thinking of. But 466 00:23:04,793 --> 00:23:07,673 Speaker 5: I think there's two guys that have been sort of 467 00:23:08,073 --> 00:23:12,194 Speaker 5: like North Carolina went to them and they said no thanks, 468 00:23:12,194 --> 00:23:12,873 Speaker 5: but no thanks. 469 00:23:13,234 --> 00:23:17,434 Speaker 7: Interesting, Yeah, like nobody wants except one person. 470 00:23:17,474 --> 00:23:20,513 Speaker 5: I think there's But I think there's a chance that 471 00:23:22,634 --> 00:23:26,673 Speaker 5: this has been blown up for Bill's benefit. That's all 472 00:23:26,674 --> 00:23:29,113 Speaker 5: I'm saying a chance. I'm not saying that this is 473 00:23:29,154 --> 00:23:32,314 Speaker 5: all fake like I think they are meeting. I think 474 00:23:32,394 --> 00:23:34,273 Speaker 5: I think the stuff that I think he has talked 475 00:23:34,273 --> 00:23:34,593 Speaker 5: to people. 476 00:23:34,634 --> 00:23:37,313 Speaker 7: So if you're if you're an NFL team and you 477 00:23:37,394 --> 00:23:40,474 Speaker 7: hear this story about this four hundred page manifesto or 478 00:23:40,553 --> 00:23:42,754 Speaker 7: bible or whatever you want to call it that I 479 00:23:42,833 --> 00:23:47,954 Speaker 7: heard that he had Andy, Yeah, he's updated write it right. 480 00:23:48,194 --> 00:23:52,513 Speaker 7: So any NFL team now is thinking, if we go 481 00:23:52,553 --> 00:23:55,273 Speaker 7: with this guy, is going to be major upheaval. Do 482 00:23:55,313 --> 00:23:56,234 Speaker 7: we want that? Right? 483 00:23:56,313 --> 00:24:00,433 Speaker 5: And that's why, like I people are like, oh, you know, 484 00:24:00,474 --> 00:24:02,794 Speaker 5: he's letting everybody know that he means business and he's 485 00:24:02,793 --> 00:24:05,194 Speaker 5: still you know, at seventy two, he's still you know, 486 00:24:05,273 --> 00:24:07,874 Speaker 5: a viable Like I think it's the opposite. I think 487 00:24:07,914 --> 00:24:09,994 Speaker 5: he's letting everybody know he's every bit is set in 488 00:24:10,033 --> 00:24:12,273 Speaker 5: his ways. He he's always been. He's not willing to 489 00:24:12,394 --> 00:24:16,313 Speaker 5: change for anything. He's prepared. We all know that he's 490 00:24:16,114 --> 00:24:19,393 Speaker 5: as detail oriented as coach as we've ever seen. Like, 491 00:24:19,474 --> 00:24:21,633 Speaker 5: That's how he's won all these games. That's why he 492 00:24:21,674 --> 00:24:24,353 Speaker 5: only needs fifteen wins to become the all time winning 493 00:24:24,353 --> 00:24:27,074 Speaker 5: his coach right is because of this, because he has 494 00:24:27,553 --> 00:24:32,433 Speaker 5: a dossier for every occasion. But I think that the 495 00:24:32,513 --> 00:24:35,194 Speaker 5: reason that some teams weren't really interested is because he 496 00:24:35,234 --> 00:24:36,474 Speaker 5: doesn't play well with others. 497 00:24:36,553 --> 00:24:39,434 Speaker 7: Oh, certainly that's what Atlanta turned him down for because 498 00:24:39,874 --> 00:24:40,633 Speaker 7: John McKay was. 499 00:24:40,874 --> 00:24:43,953 Speaker 5: As far as I know, rich, but as far as 500 00:24:44,033 --> 00:24:52,073 Speaker 5: I know his father, nobody else interviewed him, right, I 501 00:24:52,073 --> 00:24:54,513 Speaker 5: think Atlanta was the only team that interviewed him last year. 502 00:24:55,273 --> 00:24:58,754 Speaker 5: So now you're getting all this stuff. You know, Lombardi's 503 00:24:58,793 --> 00:25:00,793 Speaker 5: telling you how much better the college jobs are than 504 00:25:00,833 --> 00:25:04,114 Speaker 5: the pro jobs, and that you know these dorky sons 505 00:25:04,114 --> 00:25:07,473 Speaker 5: of owners that run the analytics department, Tony Kahan, you 506 00:25:07,474 --> 00:25:10,754 Speaker 5: know that this is because that no one's reached out 507 00:25:10,754 --> 00:25:13,313 Speaker 5: to him, and that if they do reach out to him, 508 00:25:13,313 --> 00:25:15,793 Speaker 5: they're not willing to just hand the keys to the 509 00:25:15,914 --> 00:25:20,754 Speaker 5: entire organization over to him. I think this is where 510 00:25:20,754 --> 00:25:22,994 Speaker 5: Bill is right now. I think he's a little desperate, 511 00:25:23,434 --> 00:25:26,273 Speaker 5: and I think this is a kind of a a 512 00:25:26,353 --> 00:25:33,193 Speaker 5: whole kind of a concerted effort with you know, with 513 00:25:33,313 --> 00:25:36,513 Speaker 5: thought like when they're leakags. When have you ever seen 514 00:25:37,513 --> 00:25:39,713 Speaker 5: Belichick involved with anything in the media. 515 00:25:39,994 --> 00:25:41,354 Speaker 7: Well, it's all new, Paul, but. 516 00:25:42,194 --> 00:25:45,154 Speaker 5: Without it being fact right, Like. 517 00:25:45,513 --> 00:25:47,474 Speaker 7: Well, that's why I think this, this might happen. 518 00:25:48,033 --> 00:25:50,873 Speaker 5: I think it could happen because I think he'll have 519 00:25:50,914 --> 00:25:51,474 Speaker 5: no options. 520 00:25:51,553 --> 00:25:54,593 Speaker 7: Yeah, because he wasn't on Pat McAfee saying, yeah, you 521 00:25:54,634 --> 00:25:59,033 Speaker 7: can't believe everything you read, Pat. You know he's not 522 00:25:59,114 --> 00:25:59,954 Speaker 7: denying any. 523 00:25:59,793 --> 00:26:01,714 Speaker 5: Of this, but this is this is my point. Yeah, 524 00:26:01,714 --> 00:26:03,313 Speaker 5: I think it's all part of a ruse. 525 00:26:03,513 --> 00:26:05,314 Speaker 7: Like I think it's well, I don't think it's a rule. 526 00:26:05,394 --> 00:26:07,954 Speaker 5: I think he wants everybody to think he's taking this job, 527 00:26:07,994 --> 00:26:11,073 Speaker 5: and he wants the NFL teams to say, Okay, if 528 00:26:11,073 --> 00:26:12,994 Speaker 5: we don't, you know, we can't wait till the end 529 00:26:12,994 --> 00:26:14,393 Speaker 5: of the year like we were going to. If we 530 00:26:14,434 --> 00:26:16,074 Speaker 5: want to talk to him, we've got to reach out 531 00:26:16,073 --> 00:26:18,994 Speaker 5: to him now. And if they don't, then he might 532 00:26:18,994 --> 00:26:21,153 Speaker 5: take the job. Realizing I don't have any options. This 533 00:26:21,234 --> 00:26:23,994 Speaker 5: is what I'm saying. I'm not saying it's not a possibility. 534 00:26:24,434 --> 00:26:26,234 Speaker 5: I'm saying he doesn't really want this. 535 00:26:26,394 --> 00:26:28,434 Speaker 7: So if he turns down this job, I. 536 00:26:28,394 --> 00:26:30,393 Speaker 5: Can't want this. He wants to be in the NFL. 537 00:26:30,513 --> 00:26:35,914 Speaker 7: Friend, if he turns down this job this week, does 538 00:26:35,954 --> 00:26:36,593 Speaker 7: that mean well. 539 00:26:36,474 --> 00:26:37,754 Speaker 5: I don't think, you know, we have to see if 540 00:26:37,754 --> 00:26:39,434 Speaker 5: it's offered too. I'm not buying the whole. 541 00:26:39,513 --> 00:26:41,633 Speaker 7: But if he pulls out, Let's say, let's say he 542 00:26:41,634 --> 00:26:44,154 Speaker 7: pulls out of this job this week, does that mean 543 00:26:44,194 --> 00:26:46,313 Speaker 7: a team from the NFL has reached out to him 544 00:26:46,313 --> 00:26:49,474 Speaker 7: and said, hey, hey, hold on, we can't do it 545 00:26:49,513 --> 00:26:50,234 Speaker 7: obviously now. 546 00:26:50,434 --> 00:26:52,353 Speaker 5: But I think that's what he's going to lead you 547 00:26:52,394 --> 00:26:52,873 Speaker 5: to belief. 548 00:26:53,474 --> 00:27:00,994 Speaker 7: Yeah, but he in other words, with the only reason 549 00:27:01,033 --> 00:27:04,273 Speaker 7: he pulls out of this is because there's another job 550 00:27:04,313 --> 00:27:05,313 Speaker 7: at the NFL waiting. 551 00:27:07,674 --> 00:27:11,513 Speaker 5: Well, no, because they all The other possibility could be 552 00:27:11,553 --> 00:27:14,714 Speaker 5: that North Carolina is doing this to help him and 553 00:27:14,754 --> 00:27:16,914 Speaker 5: they're not good. They're not really offering him the job. 554 00:27:17,434 --> 00:27:19,234 Speaker 7: Why would they want to help him? What's in it? 555 00:27:19,313 --> 00:27:21,834 Speaker 7: What's in it for him? All they're doing is publicity. 556 00:27:21,474 --> 00:27:23,633 Speaker 9: All they've gotten it. I know, But they're holding up 557 00:27:23,674 --> 00:27:25,553 Speaker 9: the project. They need to find coach. 558 00:27:25,593 --> 00:27:28,553 Speaker 5: But Bill Belichick's interested in the North Carolina job. Maybe 559 00:27:28,553 --> 00:27:30,954 Speaker 5: I should found Arthur Smith. Maybe I should rethink that. 560 00:27:31,073 --> 00:27:34,434 Speaker 7: Yeah, okay, I can see that there's. 561 00:27:34,194 --> 00:27:36,594 Speaker 5: Something hit it for North Carolina. They've gotten more more 562 00:27:36,634 --> 00:27:38,954 Speaker 5: talk about North Carolina football in the last five days 563 00:27:39,073 --> 00:27:40,394 Speaker 5: than they've had in the last five years. 564 00:27:40,474 --> 00:27:43,714 Speaker 7: True, right, A lot of it's not good, but. 565 00:27:44,154 --> 00:27:46,154 Speaker 5: No, a lot of people are taking shots at the program, 566 00:27:46,194 --> 00:27:47,953 Speaker 5: which I think are a little unfair. I mean, it's 567 00:27:47,954 --> 00:27:51,073 Speaker 5: a middling program. It's not a blue blood. We can 568 00:27:51,114 --> 00:27:53,754 Speaker 5: all agree on that, but it's a it's sort of 569 00:27:53,714 --> 00:27:58,034 Speaker 5: an upper upper tier ACC program. Yeah, you know, it's 570 00:27:58,114 --> 00:28:00,434 Speaker 5: it's it's not one of the bottom. 571 00:28:00,234 --> 00:28:03,714 Speaker 7: Dwellers in the ACC. Is there good examples of Division 572 00:28:03,754 --> 00:28:07,354 Speaker 7: I schools where they're powerhouses in both football and basketball? 573 00:28:09,194 --> 00:28:12,874 Speaker 5: Michigan maybeah, Michigan is probably Michigan is usually the answer 574 00:28:12,954 --> 00:28:14,593 Speaker 5: to that question, like as a team that can win 575 00:28:14,634 --> 00:28:17,434 Speaker 5: the national title in all sports, But that's kind of 576 00:28:17,474 --> 00:28:20,793 Speaker 5: a it's kind of a niche because not everybody has hockey, 577 00:28:21,793 --> 00:28:26,073 Speaker 5: but Michigan would be one. Texas, Alabama, those teams are 578 00:28:26,114 --> 00:28:29,194 Speaker 5: pretty good, you know, Florida has been. Florida won national 579 00:28:29,194 --> 00:28:32,314 Speaker 5: titles at the same time. I think in both with Tebow, 580 00:28:32,914 --> 00:28:35,593 Speaker 5: you know, they probably they probably weren't as good in 581 00:28:35,634 --> 00:28:37,994 Speaker 5: football when they won the national title in basketball. 582 00:28:37,994 --> 00:28:41,914 Speaker 7: Is that's going to become less uh uh are team 583 00:28:41,994 --> 00:28:43,554 Speaker 7: is going to be less able to do that now 584 00:28:43,594 --> 00:28:47,754 Speaker 7: with the NILS because you're spending so much money in 585 00:28:47,794 --> 00:28:48,913 Speaker 7: one sport or another. 586 00:28:49,314 --> 00:28:53,834 Speaker 5: Well, I think you have different collectives for the different sports. 587 00:28:54,074 --> 00:28:57,594 Speaker 5: It's not just athletics. Now they do have athletic ni 588 00:28:57,794 --> 00:29:00,714 Speaker 5: L like these these schools do have it, but you 589 00:29:00,754 --> 00:29:03,554 Speaker 5: can have it in football. You can have like there's 590 00:29:03,554 --> 00:29:06,554 Speaker 5: like like as an example, Andrew Locke recently was named 591 00:29:06,594 --> 00:29:10,834 Speaker 5: the GM of Stanford football, right, so he's probably going 592 00:29:10,914 --> 00:29:12,914 Speaker 5: to be heavily involved in their ni L, and they're 593 00:29:12,954 --> 00:29:21,754 Speaker 5: collective for football. Adrian Wojanowski, who left ESPN as their 594 00:29:21,954 --> 00:29:25,954 Speaker 5: sort of Adam Schefter of the NBA, went to say Bonaventure, 595 00:29:25,954 --> 00:29:29,474 Speaker 5: which is his alma mater, to be the basketball GM yep. 596 00:29:30,114 --> 00:29:33,754 Speaker 5: So it's my guess is he's going to do similar 597 00:29:33,834 --> 00:29:37,274 Speaker 5: kind of stuff. So for just the basketball, right, that. 598 00:29:37,434 --> 00:29:39,154 Speaker 7: Reminded me of something that does that make any sense? 599 00:29:39,394 --> 00:29:41,393 Speaker 7: It does that reminds me of something I wanted to 600 00:29:41,434 --> 00:29:43,714 Speaker 7: ask you about the Belichick. 601 00:29:43,514 --> 00:29:45,113 Speaker 5: Should I be the GM of Northeastern? 602 00:29:45,154 --> 00:29:48,234 Speaker 7: No? No, no, no, well you should. But the Belichick Bible 603 00:29:48,554 --> 00:29:53,914 Speaker 7: reportedly included two staffs, one that Belichick would oversee for 604 00:29:53,994 --> 00:29:59,954 Speaker 7: coaching and then recruiting staff with it sitting GM who 605 00:30:00,034 --> 00:30:00,794 Speaker 7: has a buyout? 606 00:30:00,794 --> 00:30:01,714 Speaker 5: Who needs a buyout? 607 00:30:01,834 --> 00:30:02,034 Speaker 7: Right? 608 00:30:02,474 --> 00:30:04,434 Speaker 5: So I think that's Bears. 609 00:30:05,954 --> 00:30:06,594 Speaker 7: You think it's Bear. 610 00:30:06,794 --> 00:30:08,673 Speaker 5: He's talking about Ergian Jerry and who used to be 611 00:30:08,754 --> 00:30:11,554 Speaker 5: his right hand. So obviously he's at Boston College, right, 612 00:30:11,634 --> 00:30:12,834 Speaker 5: so he'd need a buy. 613 00:30:12,914 --> 00:30:15,433 Speaker 7: So, right, so Bill already knows who he wants for 614 00:30:15,514 --> 00:30:18,314 Speaker 7: that job, and that person's gonna need to be bought 615 00:30:18,314 --> 00:30:18,834 Speaker 7: out from his. 616 00:30:19,034 --> 00:30:22,154 Speaker 5: That's how I took that, right, That's how I took that. 617 00:30:22,154 --> 00:30:24,154 Speaker 5: That word in yesterday, no one talked about. 618 00:30:23,954 --> 00:30:26,354 Speaker 7: Somebody else told me, oh no, no, no. He's saying that 619 00:30:26,474 --> 00:30:28,633 Speaker 7: it would be such a contract such that if they 620 00:30:28,634 --> 00:30:29,954 Speaker 7: wanted to get rid of the GM. 621 00:30:30,074 --> 00:30:31,754 Speaker 5: They'd have to buy him out. I didn't take it 622 00:30:31,754 --> 00:30:32,074 Speaker 5: that way. 623 00:30:32,114 --> 00:30:36,234 Speaker 7: I didn't either. I think it's he already has the person. 624 00:30:36,114 --> 00:30:37,873 Speaker 5: I heard Fred I think say that this morning, and. 625 00:30:37,874 --> 00:30:39,514 Speaker 7: The person's going to need to be bought out to 626 00:30:39,514 --> 00:30:40,393 Speaker 7: get Wallach. 627 00:30:40,434 --> 00:30:42,554 Speaker 5: I think John might have said it that way this morning. 628 00:30:42,594 --> 00:30:45,434 Speaker 5: I took it as this is the guy I need, 629 00:30:45,434 --> 00:30:47,514 Speaker 5: Fred Kersh, and in order to get Fred Kirsh, we're 630 00:30:47,514 --> 00:30:50,394 Speaker 5: gonna have to buy him out of his Patriots contract. 631 00:30:50,754 --> 00:30:52,954 Speaker 5: That's how I too. That's why I think he's talking about. 632 00:30:53,034 --> 00:30:55,554 Speaker 7: And that's why he used the word sitting GM. But 633 00:30:55,634 --> 00:30:56,713 Speaker 7: Bears is in a GM. 634 00:30:56,914 --> 00:30:59,994 Speaker 5: He's not considered a GM, but I believe that he 635 00:31:00,194 --> 00:31:03,594 Speaker 5: is that guy for Bill O'Brien. He's handling the nil, 636 00:31:03,794 --> 00:31:06,794 Speaker 5: he's all that kind of stuff. Listen, this is a 637 00:31:06,834 --> 00:31:09,794 Speaker 5: new landscape. People are figuring some of this stuff out 638 00:31:09,794 --> 00:31:11,954 Speaker 5: on the fly. It's it's it's new to everybody, even 639 00:31:11,994 --> 00:31:15,754 Speaker 5: the big schools, you know. I think this is the 640 00:31:15,794 --> 00:31:18,634 Speaker 5: biggest reason that Saban decided enough is enough. I think 641 00:31:18,714 --> 00:31:23,434 Speaker 5: Krzyzewsky was kind of similar with the portal and everything 642 00:31:23,474 --> 00:31:25,554 Speaker 5: going on, and he saw the landscape going when he 643 00:31:25,754 --> 00:31:29,794 Speaker 5: stepped down. It's funny when they can't cheat, When they 644 00:31:29,834 --> 00:31:32,474 Speaker 5: can't cheat by themselves, they don't want to share, so 645 00:31:32,514 --> 00:31:33,234 Speaker 5: they just say I'm all. 646 00:31:33,194 --> 00:31:35,834 Speaker 7: Right when they when they don't have the advantage. It's 647 00:31:35,994 --> 00:31:38,674 Speaker 7: you know, even playing field right, But. 648 00:31:38,634 --> 00:31:41,194 Speaker 5: I do think that, you know, I don't think even 649 00:31:41,234 --> 00:31:43,874 Speaker 5: the teams themselves, even these blue blood schools, I don't 650 00:31:43,874 --> 00:31:46,474 Speaker 5: think they have all the answers yet as to how 651 00:31:46,554 --> 00:31:47,914 Speaker 5: the best way to do these things. 652 00:31:47,994 --> 00:31:49,994 Speaker 7: I hear it was like a twenty million dollar. 653 00:31:49,914 --> 00:31:52,874 Speaker 5: Cap on it something like that is coming. 654 00:31:52,954 --> 00:31:57,514 Speaker 7: Yeah, so that's Charlie H.

So in the meantime, let's get 690 00:33:29,954 --> 00:33:32,194 Speaker 7: some of these calls and emails in. We'll start with 691 00:33:32,234 --> 00:33:33,953 Speaker 7: Fidel and Tampa. What's up? Fidel? 692 00:33:35,434 --> 00:33:36,994 Speaker 12: Hey, how are you guys doing good? 693 00:33:38,674 --> 00:33:38,874 Speaker 13: Good? 694 00:33:38,914 --> 00:33:42,674 Speaker 12: I actually had two little things. I actually I've been 695 00:33:42,714 --> 00:33:46,274 Speaker 12: down on Mayo hire since the beginning, ever since that 696 00:33:46,394 --> 00:33:49,954 Speaker 12: press conference. That's funny, we haven't heard a Mayo call 697 00:33:50,554 --> 00:33:56,154 Speaker 12: craft thunder since. But I actually think that he won't 698 00:33:56,194 --> 00:33:58,714 Speaker 12: be like fired from the team and exile. I think 699 00:33:58,714 --> 00:34:02,994 Speaker 12: he could possibly be promoted like they did with Bruce 700 00:34:03,074 --> 00:34:07,154 Speaker 12: Arians or Pete Carroll and like brought into the front 701 00:34:07,194 --> 00:34:11,754 Speaker 12: office or into the more corporate side of it than 702 00:34:11,834 --> 00:34:17,114 Speaker 12: him just being terminated from the team and then possibly 703 00:34:17,194 --> 00:34:20,514 Speaker 12: hiring an outside guy. Okay, because the entire process to 704 00:34:20,594 --> 00:34:23,994 Speaker 12: me didn't feel like an actual search more than just 705 00:34:24,034 --> 00:34:26,154 Speaker 12: like and I know they had been the contract from 706 00:34:26,154 --> 00:34:28,194 Speaker 12: a year ago, but I STI don't think it was 707 00:34:28,234 --> 00:34:29,234 Speaker 12: the right decision to time. 708 00:34:30,834 --> 00:34:33,154 Speaker 7: So in other words, then but in other words, not 709 00:34:33,194 --> 00:34:36,354 Speaker 7: to just throw him out on the street, because there 710 00:34:36,393 --> 00:34:37,953 Speaker 7: was no fault of his own that he was hired 711 00:34:37,994 --> 00:34:41,953 Speaker 7: the way he was hired, but you elevate and then yeah. 712 00:34:41,913 --> 00:34:46,673 Speaker 5: I just don't see why Mayo would want to do that, right. 713 00:34:47,274 --> 00:34:49,593 Speaker 12: And my other thing was any news on the Tom 714 00:34:49,634 --> 00:34:51,194 Speaker 12: Brady statue. 715 00:34:51,234 --> 00:34:54,194 Speaker 7: Any news on the top statue. I would love to 716 00:34:54,194 --> 00:34:56,274 Speaker 7: see it. It's a good question. I know it all 717 00:34:56,314 --> 00:34:57,554 Speaker 7: has to do with scheduling. 718 00:34:58,154 --> 00:35:00,194 Speaker 5: You know, it's not going to be at the Chargers game, 719 00:35:01,834 --> 00:35:05,153 Speaker 5: but yeah, I think they're trying to figure out when 720 00:35:05,154 --> 00:35:06,993 Speaker 5: they can get Tom back here. 721 00:35:07,034 --> 00:35:09,194 Speaker 7: I think it's probably going to be an off season event, 722 00:35:09,794 --> 00:35:16,074 Speaker 7: probably another unveiling or something like that. Yeah, but a 723 00:35:16,473 --> 00:35:16,754 Speaker 7: thank you. 724 00:35:17,034 --> 00:35:19,314 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, there's not. Unfortunately fad out, there's no news 725 00:35:19,354 --> 00:35:22,234 Speaker 5: on it. We haven't. I know that there was some 726 00:35:22,274 --> 00:35:25,993 Speaker 5: thought before the season started that he would be here 727 00:35:26,034 --> 00:35:29,113 Speaker 5: as part of the Fox broadcast team for I think 728 00:35:29,154 --> 00:35:31,953 Speaker 5: the Miami game, and then it turned out that two 729 00:35:32,154 --> 00:35:36,513 Speaker 5: got hurt that game obviously lost to any luster, and 730 00:35:36,873 --> 00:35:41,034 Speaker 5: he wasn't. There wasn't the Fox A team right here, 731 00:35:41,234 --> 00:35:45,274 Speaker 5: and Brady has not been back to my knowledge since 732 00:35:45,433 --> 00:35:46,033 Speaker 5: Brady Night. 733 00:35:46,154 --> 00:35:49,154 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's just the two. We just they haven't been 734 00:35:49,194 --> 00:35:52,714 Speaker 7: able to coordinate the schedules. But I think the easiest 735 00:35:52,714 --> 00:35:54,873 Speaker 7: way is you do it in the off season. But 736 00:35:54,953 --> 00:35:56,113 Speaker 7: I don't know what's going to happen. 737 00:35:56,234 --> 00:35:57,074 Speaker 5: Ye be interesting. 738 00:35:57,234 --> 00:35:59,913 Speaker 7: Yeah, all right, let's get to some emails. 739 00:35:59,913 --> 00:36:02,834 Speaker 5: Hold on for a second, let me Oh, he's gotta 740 00:36:02,913 --> 00:36:03,274 Speaker 5: he's got. 741 00:36:03,314 --> 00:36:07,993 Speaker 7: To move this to me. Then leaning forward, we do 742 00:36:08,074 --> 00:36:10,354 Speaker 7: have a lot of emails, and I appreciate that you 743 00:36:10,354 --> 00:36:15,433 Speaker 7: should read some.

First to Spee, stole my 748 00:36:26,674 --> 00:36:29,913 Speaker 7: point yesterday. But when I heard the read for carry on, 749 00:36:30,074 --> 00:36:33,594 Speaker 7: I assumed it was carrion, you know, like a carrying, 750 00:36:33,754 --> 00:36:36,514 Speaker 7: like a dead meat. Oh okay. 751 00:36:37,274 --> 00:36:37,393 Speaker 13: Uh. 752 00:36:37,473 --> 00:36:39,913 Speaker 7: Two, if Fred wants Paul to have different clothes, shouldn't 753 00:36:39,913 --> 00:36:42,593 Speaker 7: he be providing a clothing allowance to. 754 00:36:42,594 --> 00:36:45,274 Speaker 5: His employees, just a salary of anything. 755 00:36:45,354 --> 00:36:46,994 Speaker 7: I mean, do you want do you want Patriots stuff? 756 00:36:46,994 --> 00:36:49,634 Speaker 7: Because you don't like wearing Patriot stuff? I have a 757 00:36:49,634 --> 00:36:50,834 Speaker 7: lot of I'll get your Patriots. 758 00:36:50,873 --> 00:36:52,913 Speaker 5: I have a lot of Patriots stuff. But is that 759 00:36:52,953 --> 00:36:56,033 Speaker 5: a requirement now, because that's always been sort of frowned upon, 760 00:36:56,834 --> 00:36:59,794 Speaker 5: like when moron, No, that's on the preseason game, right, Well, 761 00:36:59,794 --> 00:37:02,513 Speaker 5: in the preseason game, I have to wear that stuff. Yeah, yeah, 762 00:37:02,554 --> 00:37:03,194 Speaker 5: but I don't mind. 763 00:37:03,194 --> 00:37:03,633 Speaker 7: I don't mind. 764 00:37:03,634 --> 00:37:04,634 Speaker 5: I don't mind wearing Patriots. 765 00:37:04,794 --> 00:37:05,713 Speaker 7: Do you want Patriot stuff? 766 00:37:05,754 --> 00:37:08,114 Speaker 11: I can get your Patriots that do not want Patriot stuff, 767 00:37:08,114 --> 00:37:09,834 Speaker 11: although I could use a couple of Christmas kifts for 768 00:37:09,873 --> 00:37:10,354 Speaker 11: other people. 769 00:37:10,433 --> 00:37:11,913 Speaker 7: Well, that's not the spirit of it. 770 00:37:11,994 --> 00:37:12,754 Speaker 5: You can arrange that. 771 00:37:13,674 --> 00:37:16,194 Speaker 7: H Three When is Mike dropping his I Love You 772 00:37:16,314 --> 00:37:17,434 Speaker 7: Drake music video? 773 00:37:19,194 --> 00:37:22,153 Speaker 5: Yeah, that should be in the offering. Mike has been 774 00:37:22,314 --> 00:37:25,194 Speaker 5: more in touch with his musical side lately? Would you agree, man? 775 00:37:25,594 --> 00:37:30,633 Speaker 11: I have noticed that I can't hear it, so yeah, 776 00:37:30,634 --> 00:37:31,674 Speaker 11: I think that could be coming. 777 00:37:31,714 --> 00:37:31,994 Speaker 7: Okay. 778 00:37:32,634 --> 00:37:32,714 Speaker 13: Uh. 779 00:37:32,794 --> 00:37:34,873 Speaker 7: And finally, I was listening to someone talked the other 780 00:37:34,953 --> 00:37:37,514 Speaker 7: day about team identity when you heard about it today 781 00:37:38,354 --> 00:37:41,634 Speaker 7: and how it matches the coach Dan Campbell was the example. 782 00:37:42,074 --> 00:37:44,274 Speaker 7: I thought about the Patriots, how Mike and others have 783 00:37:44,354 --> 00:37:47,234 Speaker 7: decried their lack of team identity. Could it be that 784 00:37:47,274 --> 00:37:49,713 Speaker 7: the Pagers do have an identity that mirrors their coach. 785 00:37:50,834 --> 00:37:54,154 Speaker 7: Mayo seems to present himself as very corporate and the 786 00:37:54,194 --> 00:37:57,873 Speaker 7: team feels very corporate also in a bland monolithic. We 787 00:37:57,913 --> 00:37:59,754 Speaker 7: regret the error and want you to know that we 788 00:37:59,794 --> 00:38:03,354 Speaker 7: are working diligently to correct the issue. Cable company kind 789 00:38:03,393 --> 00:38:08,033 Speaker 7: of way, Someone someone somewhere is accountable, but they'll have 790 00:38:08,114 --> 00:38:11,154 Speaker 7: to form a committee to workshop it be safe and 791 00:38:11,194 --> 00:38:14,554 Speaker 7: cautious and protect the brand. I'm probably taking the analogy 792 00:38:14,594 --> 00:38:15,834 Speaker 7: too far, so just a thought. 793 00:38:17,114 --> 00:38:18,993 Speaker 5: It's not No, I don't think it's a bad I 794 00:38:19,074 --> 00:38:21,594 Speaker 5: think it's not a bad take. I just think that 795 00:38:21,634 --> 00:38:23,634 Speaker 5: what Fred said earlier in the show about this is 796 00:38:23,953 --> 00:38:26,194 Speaker 5: probably accurate. It's it's not an easy thing to do. 797 00:38:26,913 --> 00:38:28,754 Speaker 5: You can't snap your fingers and just say, well, this 798 00:38:28,794 --> 00:38:29,553 Speaker 5: is what we're going to be. 799 00:38:29,754 --> 00:38:32,633 Speaker 7: When you lose, your identity is given to you. When 800 00:38:32,634 --> 00:38:33,834 Speaker 7: you win, you create. 801 00:38:33,953 --> 00:38:37,073 Speaker 5: And I will say this, like because not to sound 802 00:38:37,074 --> 00:38:41,994 Speaker 5: all tout Mayo, I will I will say this Detroit, Okay, 803 00:38:42,194 --> 00:38:44,393 Speaker 5: it's a great example right now of a team that 804 00:38:44,674 --> 00:38:47,953 Speaker 5: really does take on the identity it's coach, right. But 805 00:38:48,354 --> 00:38:50,513 Speaker 5: the first year of Dan Campbell, the identity of the 806 00:38:50,554 --> 00:38:53,314 Speaker 5: coach was kind of a clown show, right, you know, 807 00:38:53,794 --> 00:38:56,393 Speaker 5: so you have to you have to kind of win 808 00:38:57,473 --> 00:39:00,993 Speaker 5: before you can get any kind of positive identities, you know, 809 00:39:01,194 --> 00:39:03,314 Speaker 5: whether they're tied to your coach or not. But I 810 00:39:03,714 --> 00:39:07,354 Speaker 5: understand what his his comparison of Mayo and a kind 811 00:39:07,354 --> 00:39:09,194 Speaker 5: of a corporate approach, because I do think that he 812 00:39:09,234 --> 00:39:13,754 Speaker 5: does have a lot of jargon, corporate jargon that he uses, 813 00:39:14,114 --> 00:39:17,794 Speaker 5: don't you think. Yeah, I think he tries to you know, 814 00:39:17,834 --> 00:39:20,433 Speaker 5: instill in the team and whatnot. That doesn't mean it 815 00:39:20,473 --> 00:39:22,314 Speaker 5: can't be successful, by the way. I just think that's 816 00:39:22,354 --> 00:39:22,873 Speaker 5: his approach. 817 00:39:25,314 --> 00:39:28,834 Speaker 7: Let's see. Well, speaking of speed, the Patriots big picture 818 00:39:28,873 --> 00:39:31,154 Speaker 7: identity is the team that used to have Brady and 819 00:39:31,154 --> 00:39:35,394 Speaker 7: Belichick Anyway, if you had to choose, would you prefer 820 00:39:35,433 --> 00:39:37,913 Speaker 7: for the Patriots to build on existing strengths such as 821 00:39:37,913 --> 00:39:42,554 Speaker 7: finding another talented cornerback to complement Gonzales, or to improve 822 00:39:42,594 --> 00:39:45,634 Speaker 7: position groups that are generally weak, such as offensive line. 823 00:39:45,834 --> 00:39:48,754 Speaker 7: Improving the weakest groups makes the most sense to me 824 00:39:49,154 --> 00:39:51,794 Speaker 7: because there's so many, But maybe there's an argument for 825 00:39:51,913 --> 00:39:55,593 Speaker 7: maxing out specific positions so there's something other than Drake 826 00:39:55,674 --> 00:39:59,474 Speaker 7: to lean on in tough situations. Wonder what the Wolfman 827 00:39:59,514 --> 00:39:59,953 Speaker 7: would do. 828 00:40:00,074 --> 00:40:06,194 Speaker 5: If this is you're talking about, what would you rather do, 829 00:40:05,913 --> 00:40:06,834 Speaker 5: like just. 830 00:40:06,873 --> 00:40:10,073 Speaker 7: Make cornerback a position of strength on this team or 831 00:40:10,873 --> 00:40:11,794 Speaker 7: work on the weakers. 832 00:40:12,194 --> 00:40:15,274 Speaker 5: So I have to choose between players at different positions 833 00:40:15,274 --> 00:40:18,993 Speaker 5: that are exactly the same, I'd probably go offensive line, yeah, 834 00:40:20,114 --> 00:40:23,193 Speaker 5: because that they need more help. But it doesn't work 835 00:40:23,274 --> 00:40:25,794 Speaker 5: like that. As you know, there's always a difference between players. 836 00:40:25,834 --> 00:40:28,674 Speaker 5: They're never equal, and I think that's the benefit of 837 00:40:28,714 --> 00:40:31,074 Speaker 5: where you are. I've said this a million times and 838 00:40:31,114 --> 00:40:33,993 Speaker 5: I believe it. I just feel like it's the one 839 00:40:34,074 --> 00:40:36,874 Speaker 5: benefit of being a you know, a three win team 840 00:40:36,953 --> 00:40:39,433 Speaker 5: is that you can literally take anything because you have 841 00:40:39,634 --> 00:40:42,553 Speaker 5: needs everywhere. If the cornerback is a better player than 842 00:40:42,594 --> 00:40:46,154 Speaker 5: the offensive lineman, take the cornerback, and now you have 843 00:40:46,194 --> 00:40:47,274 Speaker 5: two good cornerbacks. 844 00:40:47,314 --> 00:40:50,754 Speaker 7: Hopefully Phil is in North Carolina. 845 00:40:50,794 --> 00:40:53,274 Speaker 5: Way Field Yates, I believe came out with a mock 846 00:40:53,354 --> 00:40:54,993 Speaker 5: draft today we had Travis Hunter. 847 00:40:55,433 --> 00:40:59,393 Speaker 7: Okay to the Patriots. All right? Interesting, speaking of cornerback 848 00:40:59,994 --> 00:41:02,834 Speaker 7: Phil in North Carolina? Who Phil? He's been? 849 00:41:02,913 --> 00:41:02,993 Speaker 6: He? 850 00:41:03,234 --> 00:41:05,114 Speaker 7: I remember you know when Drake may was. 851 00:41:05,594 --> 00:41:07,433 Speaker 5: Is he the one that doesn't like Drake May? No, 852 00:41:07,554 --> 00:41:09,913 Speaker 5: but he most of the North Carolina guys do not 853 00:41:10,074 --> 00:41:10,834 Speaker 5: like Drake may but. 854 00:41:10,913 --> 00:41:14,473 Speaker 7: He might or might not have an inside connection. But 855 00:41:14,554 --> 00:41:17,794 Speaker 7: he's saying that the board of trustees is meeting to 856 00:41:17,873 --> 00:41:22,314 Speaker 7: approve the deal set for today. Announcement is being prepared. 857 00:41:22,634 --> 00:41:24,473 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that there's a chance that he's gonna 858 00:41:24,514 --> 00:41:26,314 Speaker 5: end up taking it, as no one in the NFL 859 00:41:26,354 --> 00:41:28,554 Speaker 5: has any interest. That's my feeling. 860 00:41:29,873 --> 00:41:32,834 Speaker 1: I think you'd rather saying that it's a done deal. 861 00:41:33,514 --> 00:41:35,674 Speaker 5: But thanks for the update, Phil, because I mean sounds 862 00:41:35,674 --> 00:41:39,034 Speaker 5: like you may have some Yeah, he might maybe maybe 863 00:41:39,074 --> 00:41:40,074 Speaker 5: one of those trustees. 864 00:41:40,114 --> 00:41:42,473 Speaker 7: He's at least in the right state. Yeah, so it's 865 00:41:42,594 --> 00:41:46,874 Speaker 7: closer than we are. Eric from Lakeville says, after listening 866 00:41:46,873 --> 00:41:49,794 Speaker 7: to Yesterdays show, I have two questions for Paul One, 867 00:41:49,834 --> 00:41:50,393 Speaker 7: who was Ara. 868 00:41:50,393 --> 00:41:54,993 Speaker 11: Are is Fred's nickname for Sean McDermott. 869 00:41:54,433 --> 00:41:56,074 Speaker 7: It's not.

I think there's there's a 899 00:43:12,234 --> 00:43:16,513 Speaker 5: fine line between being loyal and being sort of, you know, 900 00:43:16,554 --> 00:43:19,674 Speaker 5: a storyteller, and I think that he crosses it. 901 00:43:20,834 --> 00:43:23,794 Speaker 7: He also has ps email podcast at Patriots dot com 902 00:43:23,834 --> 00:43:28,913 Speaker 7: several times and still have not gotten the newsletter.

I mean, I think the last couple of 947 00:45:31,234 --> 00:45:34,073 Speaker 6: years you've heard some of this stuff and you know 948 00:45:34,154 --> 00:45:36,234 Speaker 6: it's it's it gets hard I think to you know, 949 00:45:36,274 --> 00:45:38,794 Speaker 6: really go above and beyond. And I think I'm waiting 950 00:45:38,794 --> 00:45:40,794 Speaker 6: today for your point yesterday, Paul, which I thought was 951 00:45:40,794 --> 00:45:43,033 Speaker 6: a good one about the injury report. See who's on there, 952 00:45:43,114 --> 00:45:45,873 Speaker 6: and you know who's battling stuff, and is everybody going 953 00:45:45,953 --> 00:45:46,674 Speaker 6: to be able to go and. 954 00:45:46,834 --> 00:45:49,434 Speaker 5: Coming off to buy it should be less of an issue. 955 00:45:49,433 --> 00:45:50,754 Speaker 5: But we'll see how many of. 956 00:45:50,674 --> 00:45:53,834 Speaker 7: These guys you think have like roster bonuses that come 957 00:45:53,834 --> 00:45:56,634 Speaker 7: into play now that they could be thinking about. 958 00:45:56,794 --> 00:45:58,714 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, for sure, you know. 959 00:45:58,794 --> 00:46:02,593 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, you know active yeah, active per game 960 00:46:02,674 --> 00:46:03,314 Speaker 5: roster bonuses. 961 00:46:03,473 --> 00:46:05,433 Speaker 6: I'd wonder about Jonathan Jones with that. I mean, he's 962 00:46:05,433 --> 00:46:08,153 Speaker 6: seen his usage decline a little bit, and he's last 963 00:46:08,194 --> 00:46:09,473 Speaker 6: year of his deal. I know a lot of guys 964 00:46:09,473 --> 00:46:11,433 Speaker 6: don't make it to that deal, that that you know, 965 00:46:11,634 --> 00:46:14,314 Speaker 6: portion of the contract. So sometimes I think they load 966 00:46:14,354 --> 00:46:15,954 Speaker 6: that kind of stuff and there was is that usually 967 00:46:15,953 --> 00:46:17,873 Speaker 6: out like the incentives are kind of reached by that 968 00:46:17,953 --> 00:46:20,154 Speaker 6: last you know, year of the deal. They get rid 969 00:46:20,194 --> 00:46:21,674 Speaker 6: of all that stuff, and it's just kind of I 970 00:46:21,674 --> 00:46:23,034 Speaker 6: don't know, but something. 971 00:46:22,834 --> 00:46:25,234 Speaker 7: Look at who would you say in the locker room, 972 00:46:25,274 --> 00:46:26,953 Speaker 7: because I assumed you were in the locker room, not 973 00:46:27,034 --> 00:46:27,514 Speaker 7: the video. 974 00:46:27,834 --> 00:46:28,354 Speaker 6: I did both. 975 00:46:28,393 --> 00:46:28,834 Speaker 7: I did both. 976 00:46:29,114 --> 00:46:30,113 Speaker 6: I did assess the moves. 977 00:46:30,754 --> 00:46:33,754 Speaker 7: Who had re in the locker room? Oh well not. 978 00:46:33,913 --> 00:46:36,314 Speaker 6: I mean, it's that's really spread out. There isn't a 979 00:46:36,354 --> 00:46:40,433 Speaker 6: lot of group meetings in there. It's really individual, one 980 00:46:40,433 --> 00:46:42,593 Speaker 6: on ones. I would say the big thing, yeah, more 981 00:46:42,674 --> 00:46:45,714 Speaker 6: hush tones, you know, guys having private conversations. I'd say 982 00:46:45,873 --> 00:46:48,234 Speaker 6: probably the biggest piece from the locker room itself was 983 00:46:48,234 --> 00:46:51,834 Speaker 6: that Javon Baker has now been moved across to where 984 00:46:51,913 --> 00:46:54,274 Speaker 6: kJ Osborne is, so he's now with the quarterbacks and 985 00:46:54,274 --> 00:46:57,633 Speaker 6: the wide receivers as well, bringing everybody, you know, all 986 00:46:57,634 --> 00:47:00,274 Speaker 6: that that position group together. So Don Kenneth Borne talked 987 00:47:00,274 --> 00:47:02,113 Speaker 6: again a little bit about you know, having those guys 988 00:47:02,154 --> 00:47:04,593 Speaker 6: close and sometimes you're across the way, you're gonna miss 989 00:47:04,594 --> 00:47:06,634 Speaker 6: some of the little chatter or things that we're you know, 990 00:47:06,714 --> 00:47:09,234 Speaker 6: talking about maybe getting ready for the game of the practice. 991 00:47:09,314 --> 00:47:12,553 Speaker 6: So but otherwise, yeah, just I think everybody's just kind 992 00:47:12,554 --> 00:47:14,794 Speaker 6: of back feel kind of like I feel where it's like, 993 00:47:14,834 --> 00:47:17,154 Speaker 6: all right, four games, let's lock and load, get in 994 00:47:17,274 --> 00:47:19,154 Speaker 6: and you know, focus on these games and try to 995 00:47:19,154 --> 00:47:19,994 Speaker 6: pour everything we got. 996 00:47:20,074 --> 00:47:23,114 Speaker 7: I know, the head coach was asked about indirectly the 997 00:47:23,154 --> 00:47:29,634 Speaker 7: Badard report about being evaluated, where any players asked about 998 00:47:30,473 --> 00:47:33,714 Speaker 7: you know, stuff that Badard reported anything. 999 00:47:33,473 --> 00:47:36,513 Speaker 6: No, nothing specific to Badar, But I would say, you know, 1000 00:47:36,714 --> 00:47:39,393 Speaker 6: i'd say again of quality, you know, acknowledging that everybody's 1001 00:47:39,433 --> 00:47:42,274 Speaker 6: being evaluated, not just here but across the league, and 1002 00:47:42,514 --> 00:47:44,114 Speaker 6: you know, and certainly a lot. I think it's the 1003 00:47:44,154 --> 00:47:45,913 Speaker 6: thing that's different this year, and it's it's A good 1004 00:47:45,953 --> 00:47:47,873 Speaker 6: thing is that they got a lot of young guys. 1005 00:47:47,913 --> 00:47:50,473 Speaker 6: And you heard that as a recurring theme over the 1006 00:47:50,514 --> 00:47:52,953 Speaker 6: last few weeks, is these young guys are still trying 1007 00:47:52,953 --> 00:47:54,834 Speaker 6: to make a name for themselves. They're still bringing the 1008 00:47:54,913 --> 00:47:58,513 Speaker 6: energy every day. Uh So, we'll see they're gonna kick 1009 00:47:58,554 --> 00:48:00,473 Speaker 6: it off with a fully padded practice over there in 1010 00:48:00,554 --> 00:48:02,873 Speaker 6: the waste Innovation's fieldhouse. 1011 00:48:03,034 --> 00:48:04,554 Speaker 5: Did I get innovation? 1012 00:48:04,594 --> 00:48:07,434 Speaker 6: Thank you very much. Uh So, they're you know, trudging 1013 00:48:07,473 --> 00:48:09,514 Speaker 6: over there now and we'll see how the practice goes today. 1014 00:48:09,514 --> 00:48:11,634 Speaker 6: But I think we will get some interesting, you know 1015 00:48:11,634 --> 00:48:14,994 Speaker 6: feedback just being a full padded practice. Who's limited. Marcus 1016 00:48:15,074 --> 00:48:17,393 Speaker 6: Jones wasn't here on Monday. He's one guy to keep 1017 00:48:17,393 --> 00:48:17,794 Speaker 6: an eye on. 1018 00:48:18,234 --> 00:48:22,034 Speaker 7: Yeah, cold strange, probably a play. 1019 00:48:21,873 --> 00:48:25,393 Speaker 6: Right, that's what it sounds like. Yeah, yeah, I mean, 1020 00:48:25,393 --> 00:48:26,913 Speaker 6: I just you know how we spoke with him a 1021 00:48:26,953 --> 00:48:28,954 Speaker 6: couple of weeks ago when he first came back, and 1022 00:48:29,114 --> 00:48:31,674 Speaker 6: you know, he still talked about that last thing is 1023 00:48:31,714 --> 00:48:33,794 Speaker 6: to have a padded practice, and so you know, I 1024 00:48:33,794 --> 00:48:35,594 Speaker 6: always I'm always aware of some of these moments and 1025 00:48:35,674 --> 00:48:37,553 Speaker 6: just you know, he's walking out by himself, he's got 1026 00:48:37,554 --> 00:48:39,673 Speaker 6: his pads on, no knee brace, by the way, which 1027 00:48:39,674 --> 00:48:41,434 Speaker 6: I just you know, I don't know, kind of interesting 1028 00:48:41,433 --> 00:48:43,593 Speaker 6: guy coming off kne injury. I know it wasn't it 1029 00:48:43,634 --> 00:48:44,554 Speaker 6: was a it was a. 1030 00:48:45,953 --> 00:48:47,473 Speaker 7: Serious is that I don't know? 1031 00:48:47,514 --> 00:48:48,873 Speaker 6: Maybe is that not always. 1032 00:48:48,913 --> 00:48:52,153 Speaker 7: Five brace will really help race? That's because that goes 1033 00:48:52,154 --> 00:48:53,594 Speaker 7: down the middle, right, I don't know. 1034 00:48:53,913 --> 00:48:56,674 Speaker 6: Yeah, So, uh now, just a little moment there for him, 1035 00:48:56,674 --> 00:48:59,834 Speaker 6: and I'm very curious to see how they incorporated him. 1036 00:48:59,834 --> 00:49:02,593 Speaker 6: There were good questions today about it's not like a 1037 00:49:02,594 --> 00:49:04,393 Speaker 6: receiver where you can put him out there for five 1038 00:49:04,433 --> 00:49:06,114 Speaker 6: to ten snaps and get his feet wet. It's like 1039 00:49:06,154 --> 00:49:07,634 Speaker 6: you're a center, like you got to go right out 1040 00:49:07,634 --> 00:49:09,354 Speaker 6: there and handle the ball and call it, make the 1041 00:49:09,354 --> 00:49:10,154 Speaker 6: calls and everything. 1042 00:49:10,234 --> 00:49:12,033 Speaker 7: So it's a dry heat. 1043 00:49:12,074 --> 00:49:14,794 Speaker 5: Though I expect to see him at center. I don't 1044 00:49:14,834 --> 00:49:16,514 Speaker 5: know if he'll go like the whole way or anything 1045 00:49:16,554 --> 00:49:18,593 Speaker 5: like that. I don't think he's ready for that. Yeah, yeah, 1046 00:49:18,714 --> 00:49:21,834 Speaker 5: I expect to see him rotating at center and get 1047 00:49:21,873 --> 00:49:22,874 Speaker 5: some serious. 1048 00:49:22,634 --> 00:49:24,993 Speaker 6: I like, I I agree with you, but I also 1049 00:49:24,994 --> 00:49:26,834 Speaker 6: there's part of my brain is like he played left 1050 00:49:26,834 --> 00:49:29,153 Speaker 6: guard and I know everything we're hearing is that he's 1051 00:49:29,234 --> 00:49:31,674 Speaker 6: working at center. So I don't know. 1052 00:49:32,154 --> 00:49:34,473 Speaker 5: I think they want Leyden Robinson to play center, though 1053 00:49:34,473 --> 00:49:36,194 Speaker 5: I don't think they want to take reps away from him, 1054 00:49:36,393 --> 00:49:40,274 Speaker 5: I mean left guard. And I don't know how you felt. 1055 00:49:40,514 --> 00:49:44,393 Speaker 5: I thought it was kind of a lukewarm answer to 1056 00:49:44,433 --> 00:49:46,113 Speaker 5: the Ben Brown question. How's Ben Brown? 1057 00:49:46,274 --> 00:49:46,354 Speaker 10: Like? 1058 00:49:46,433 --> 00:49:49,754 Speaker 5: You know, since you he jumped right in there, he 1059 00:49:49,754 --> 00:49:54,913 Speaker 5: played right away, how did he play like? I didn't 1060 00:49:54,913 --> 00:49:58,674 Speaker 5: think there was much. I think the best thing you 1061 00:49:58,674 --> 00:50:01,234 Speaker 5: could say was that he learned quickly. He got here 1062 00:50:01,314 --> 00:50:02,554 Speaker 5: right away, and he was able to play. 1063 00:50:02,674 --> 00:50:03,834 Speaker 6: It hasn't messed up any snaps. 1064 00:50:03,834 --> 00:50:05,234 Speaker 7: He really helped us out in the pinch. 1065 00:50:05,433 --> 00:50:07,873 Speaker 5: Yeah, that was the only thing that he said that 1066 00:50:08,074 --> 00:50:10,714 Speaker 5: was you know about the center. Thing that gave you 1067 00:50:10,754 --> 00:50:13,953 Speaker 5: pause was what Mike just touched on ahead and about 1068 00:50:13,953 --> 00:50:14,953 Speaker 5: the exchange. 1069 00:50:15,034 --> 00:50:17,794 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean we've heard Gerrod say that, you know, 1070 00:50:17,834 --> 00:50:19,714 Speaker 7: he really wants to play the young guy see what 1071 00:50:19,754 --> 00:50:23,314 Speaker 7: he's got. Do you think that that will manifest itself 1072 00:50:23,354 --> 00:50:26,634 Speaker 7: into like how this game is last four games are coached, 1073 00:50:27,234 --> 00:50:30,034 Speaker 7: like for example, you know, we talked about Cole Strange, 1074 00:50:30,433 --> 00:50:32,473 Speaker 7: like it makes sense if he's gonna play center, he's 1075 00:50:32,473 --> 00:50:35,594 Speaker 7: going to be out there, but maybe he does rotate 1076 00:50:35,674 --> 00:50:38,354 Speaker 7: more and it's not about like just winning the game. 1077 00:50:38,393 --> 00:50:41,674 Speaker 7: It's about just getting guys reps at different places. 1078 00:50:41,314 --> 00:50:44,513 Speaker 6: Yeah, or a performance, right, like that's is Ben Brown 1079 00:50:44,554 --> 00:50:47,433 Speaker 6: playing bad? Or is this just a pre pre made 1080 00:50:47,473 --> 00:50:49,114 Speaker 6: plan that we want to get him some reps? 1081 00:50:49,154 --> 00:50:52,834 Speaker 5: Can we agree? And I'm the first guy to admit 1082 00:50:52,913 --> 00:50:55,754 Speaker 5: all the time that I don't study the offensive line tape? 1083 00:50:56,114 --> 00:50:58,114 Speaker 5: But can we agree that if Ben Brown was playing 1084 00:50:58,114 --> 00:51:00,513 Speaker 5: at a high level, we wouldn't be looking to get 1085 00:51:00,514 --> 00:51:02,194 Speaker 5: a young guy and he is a young guy. 1086 00:51:02,274 --> 00:51:04,274 Speaker 7: Yeah, it would be like Ben Brown, we found somebody. 1087 00:51:04,473 --> 00:51:06,473 Speaker 5: Right, We're gonna like if they if they thought that 1088 00:51:06,634 --> 00:51:09,234 Speaker 5: was the answer, this would not be a question. 1089 00:51:09,554 --> 00:51:09,954 Speaker 7: Yeah. 1090 00:51:10,034 --> 00:51:12,074 Speaker 6: Yeah, It's just such a unique position. That's what I 1091 00:51:12,114 --> 00:51:15,354 Speaker 6: think makes it a little bit more complicated because, like 1092 00:51:15,393 --> 00:51:17,473 Speaker 6: I said, any other position in the in the game, 1093 00:51:17,554 --> 00:51:20,194 Speaker 6: you're not other than quarterback, Like you're not assured to 1094 00:51:20,194 --> 00:51:21,834 Speaker 6: touch the ball when you get in the game. You 1095 00:51:21,834 --> 00:51:24,553 Speaker 6: can there's a get a guy feet way, you know, 1096 00:51:24,594 --> 00:51:26,433 Speaker 6: that kind of thing where you know, it's almost like 1097 00:51:26,433 --> 00:51:28,314 Speaker 6: a goalie right, Like it's like he's just gonna have 1098 00:51:28,314 --> 00:51:29,834 Speaker 6: to throw him in there and see how it goes. So, 1099 00:51:30,794 --> 00:51:32,154 Speaker 6: but I think I like your point for it. I 1100 00:51:32,194 --> 00:51:34,274 Speaker 6: was thinking the same thing it's you know, is somebody 1101 00:51:34,314 --> 00:51:36,274 Speaker 6: gonna come out because wow, he's not playing well, or 1102 00:51:36,314 --> 00:51:38,113 Speaker 6: does it just seem like, all right, he's gonna start 1103 00:51:38,194 --> 00:51:40,714 Speaker 6: us off, get us settled, and then. 1104 00:51:40,473 --> 00:51:41,834 Speaker 5: I just don't know if they have a lot of 1105 00:51:41,873 --> 00:51:45,114 Speaker 5: examples of that. Like I think that the cornerback thing 1106 00:51:45,154 --> 00:51:47,194 Speaker 5: that we talked about from the Colts game is an 1107 00:51:47,234 --> 00:51:49,794 Speaker 5: example of that. I think Jonathan Jones is better than 1108 00:51:49,834 --> 00:51:55,034 Speaker 5: Alex Austin and Isaiah Bolden and they rotated. That's clearly 1109 00:51:55,074 --> 00:51:56,993 Speaker 5: to me an effort. We need to see what some 1110 00:51:57,034 --> 00:51:59,393 Speaker 5: of these other guys can do. I don't think there's 1111 00:51:59,393 --> 00:52:00,834 Speaker 5: anything wrong with that. I think that makes a lot 1112 00:52:00,834 --> 00:52:04,513 Speaker 5: of sense. And Mike talked about Jonathan Jones's contract is 1113 00:52:05,234 --> 00:52:07,234 Speaker 5: going to be coming to an end too, so you 1114 00:52:07,314 --> 00:52:10,754 Speaker 5: need to find some answers. But if Jalen Polk is 1115 00:52:10,794 --> 00:52:14,514 Speaker 5: out there instead of Kaisehon Boody, or if Jayvon Baker 1116 00:52:14,594 --> 00:52:18,354 Speaker 5: is out there instead of you know, Tomio Douglas is like, 1117 00:52:19,034 --> 00:52:21,754 Speaker 5: they're all young guys, they're all getting reps. I don't 1118 00:52:21,794 --> 00:52:24,113 Speaker 5: know how much of an edge you get with want 1119 00:52:24,194 --> 00:52:28,194 Speaker 5: of you know, I would expect to continue to see 1120 00:52:28,234 --> 00:52:32,314 Speaker 5: Booty Douglas and born with the other two sort of 1121 00:52:32,314 --> 00:52:35,754 Speaker 5: factored in. Yeah, but I don't expect to see all 1122 00:52:35,794 --> 00:52:37,953 Speaker 5: of a sudden Jaylon Baker get fifty. 1123 00:52:37,674 --> 00:52:40,873 Speaker 7: Five hasty over Gibson and things like that. 1124 00:52:40,953 --> 00:52:43,874 Speaker 5: I wouldn't think so. And that's again, that's not really 1125 00:52:44,034 --> 00:52:46,314 Speaker 5: like they don't really have a young guy in that Yeah, 1126 00:52:46,514 --> 00:52:48,194 Speaker 5: that room, they're they're like, they're all the. 1127 00:52:48,154 --> 00:52:50,754 Speaker 6: Same, yeah, yeah, you know under the contract. 1128 00:52:50,794 --> 00:52:52,354 Speaker 5: I mean they're here and they're all like four or 1129 00:52:52,354 --> 00:52:56,274 Speaker 5: five year guys, right, Stevenson. I mean I don't know exactly. 1130 00:52:56,274 --> 00:52:57,834 Speaker 5: You shoot me, yeah, few. 1131 00:52:57,674 --> 00:52:59,473 Speaker 6: More years, three more years, I think three four more 1132 00:52:59,514 --> 00:53:00,234 Speaker 6: years of Stevenson. 1133 00:53:00,274 --> 00:53:03,073 Speaker 7: And now should I pose my girod suggestion to Mike 1134 00:53:03,154 --> 00:53:07,553 Speaker 7: see what he says. So my suggestion to coach Mayo 1135 00:53:08,433 --> 00:53:13,113 Speaker 7: is with the caveat that he's earned it. Name Drake 1136 00:53:13,194 --> 00:53:17,314 Speaker 7: may a captain for these final four games. Interesting? 1137 00:53:17,514 --> 00:53:22,913 Speaker 6: Interesting, think about that a little bit. I mean I 1138 00:53:22,913 --> 00:53:24,913 Speaker 6: don't know, I you know, I mean, I don't mind it. 1139 00:53:24,953 --> 00:53:26,513 Speaker 6: I don't mind it. I just I mean I think 1140 00:53:26,554 --> 00:53:28,594 Speaker 6: the players already really look at him as a captain. 1141 00:53:28,634 --> 00:53:30,993 Speaker 6: I mean, especially the way Bourne's talking about I mean, 1142 00:53:31,034 --> 00:53:33,953 Speaker 6: Bourne was pumping him up. But I don't know, there's 1143 00:53:33,953 --> 00:53:35,913 Speaker 6: also part of me though that like saving that for 1144 00:53:35,994 --> 00:53:37,913 Speaker 6: next year. I think that's obviously going to be a 1145 00:53:37,953 --> 00:53:40,834 Speaker 6: slam dunk next year, and really making that, you know, 1146 00:53:40,834 --> 00:53:42,594 Speaker 6: a step forward that he takes if he did it 1147 00:53:42,674 --> 00:53:45,553 Speaker 6: right now, does it feel kind of rushed and ceremonial 1148 00:53:45,634 --> 00:53:48,514 Speaker 6: and not really like next summer Drake May is officially 1149 00:53:48,554 --> 00:53:50,393 Speaker 6: a captain now in his second year, you know, like 1150 00:53:50,393 --> 00:53:51,794 Speaker 6: maybe it packs a little more punch. 1151 00:53:52,594 --> 00:53:56,473 Speaker 7: I don't interesting. I was just thinking about ways to 1152 00:53:56,514 --> 00:53:59,354 Speaker 7: make these final four games more you know, more meaningful, 1153 00:53:59,994 --> 00:54:02,634 Speaker 7: you know. And so if you finish the finish the 1154 00:54:02,674 --> 00:54:05,873 Speaker 7: season with Drake May being named a captain, you know, 1155 00:54:05,953 --> 00:54:08,754 Speaker 7: and he takes on that mantle, and yeah, I don't 1156 00:54:08,794 --> 00:54:09,393 Speaker 7: know it's coming. 1157 00:54:09,594 --> 00:54:12,474 Speaker 6: I mean, it's definitely coming. I mean Borne can't speak 1158 00:54:12,674 --> 00:54:13,634 Speaker 6: highly enough. 1159 00:54:13,433 --> 00:54:15,834 Speaker 7: About there's no doctor a captain next year. 1160 00:54:15,873 --> 00:54:18,114 Speaker 6: You know, I know, yeah, oh yeah, I mean Bourne today, 1161 00:54:18,114 --> 00:54:21,513 Speaker 6: it's just interesting hearing him phrase it this way. But 1162 00:54:21,554 --> 00:54:24,194 Speaker 6: he's just like, you know, if you see the defense 1163 00:54:24,234 --> 00:54:26,274 Speaker 6: a certain way and you going to get to a spot, 1164 00:54:26,634 --> 00:54:28,154 Speaker 6: he's gonna see it the same way, and he's going 1165 00:54:28,194 --> 00:54:30,674 Speaker 6: to get the ball to that spot. And so I 1166 00:54:30,674 --> 00:54:32,633 Speaker 6: don't know that that stick out to me a little bit. 1167 00:54:33,234 --> 00:54:36,194 Speaker 6: But yeah, I think they're all super high on Drake 1168 00:54:36,274 --> 00:54:38,834 Speaker 6: and you know, it seems like everybody's hoping that he can, 1169 00:54:38,873 --> 00:54:40,674 Speaker 6: you know, put a strong finish to the season. 1170 00:54:40,953 --> 00:54:43,834 Speaker 7: All right, take a break.

Got 1203 00:56:29,514 --> 00:56:31,953 Speaker 16: to get better and it comes down to fundamentals. Had 1204 00:56:32,953 --> 00:56:35,354 Speaker 16: you know, the players had a bye week. Coaches don't 1205 00:56:35,354 --> 00:56:37,593 Speaker 16: really get bye weeks. Had a couple of days that, 1206 00:56:38,074 --> 00:56:39,834 Speaker 16: you know, I was able to sit there and really 1207 00:56:39,873 --> 00:56:42,154 Speaker 16: reflect on, you know, the season up until this point, 1208 00:56:42,794 --> 00:56:44,513 Speaker 16: and really the goal remains the same, and that's the 1209 00:56:44,554 --> 00:56:46,314 Speaker 16: play our best football. At the end of the year, 1210 00:56:46,354 --> 00:56:48,634 Speaker 16: and that's the goal. Do we always hit the goals? No, 1211 00:56:48,794 --> 00:56:51,113 Speaker 16: but we're going to do our best to hit that goal. 1212 00:56:51,953 --> 00:56:55,274 Speaker 16: Flipping the page over to Arizona, very good team, you know, 1213 00:56:55,314 --> 00:56:58,674 Speaker 16: I'll start defensively. To me, like, if you watch that 1214 00:56:58,754 --> 00:57:01,073 Speaker 16: team as a whole, they definitely play fast and they 1215 00:57:01,074 --> 00:57:05,393 Speaker 16: fly around regardless of position. And saying that, you know, 1216 00:57:05,473 --> 00:57:07,153 Speaker 16: I think one of the big things as you watch 1217 00:57:07,234 --> 00:57:09,873 Speaker 16: their defense is just versatility. You just don't know where 1218 00:57:09,913 --> 00:57:12,234 Speaker 16: those guys are going to line up. They have, you know, 1219 00:57:12,274 --> 00:57:14,914 Speaker 16: outside linebackers that can drop, outside linebackers that could rush. 1220 00:57:15,354 --> 00:57:17,394 Speaker 16: You have a safety, and Buddah Baker, who really he 1221 00:57:17,474 --> 00:57:19,914 Speaker 16: makes the whole engine go. He'll be in the box, 1222 00:57:19,954 --> 00:57:21,474 Speaker 16: he'll blitz off the edge. He also been play in 1223 00:57:21,514 --> 00:57:23,274 Speaker 16: the middle of the field. So very versatile player, a 1224 00:57:23,354 --> 00:57:26,034 Speaker 16: very good player. Going to the linebacker is really Zavin 1225 00:57:26,914 --> 00:57:29,194 Speaker 16: Zavan's done a good jobs as a non the ball backer. 1226 00:57:29,194 --> 00:57:31,274 Speaker 16: And I would also say Matt Wilson's playing pretty well 1227 00:57:31,314 --> 00:57:33,593 Speaker 16: for him, just you know, saying I'm happy for him. 1228 00:57:33,594 --> 00:57:36,034 Speaker 16: He's out there doing a good job. Hopefully not on 1229 00:57:36,114 --> 00:57:40,354 Speaker 16: Sunday then moving offensively offensively, I think it all starts 1230 00:57:40,394 --> 00:57:42,114 Speaker 16: with the quarterback. I mean, this is one of the 1231 00:57:42,154 --> 00:57:45,234 Speaker 16: more elusive quarterbacks that you're going to see in the league. 1232 00:57:45,234 --> 00:57:47,794 Speaker 16: As you guys, as you guys know, he can beat 1233 00:57:47,794 --> 00:57:49,274 Speaker 16: you two ways. He can beat you with his arm 1234 00:57:49,274 --> 00:57:51,633 Speaker 16: and he beat you with his legs. Does a good 1235 00:57:51,714 --> 00:57:53,954 Speaker 16: job really getting the ball out and does a good 1236 00:57:53,994 --> 00:57:56,354 Speaker 16: job extending plays and that's what the NFL is, it 1237 00:57:56,394 --> 00:57:58,394 Speaker 16: turns into street ball at some point in time. He 1238 00:57:58,434 --> 00:58:00,593 Speaker 16: does a good job there. I think the offensive line, 1239 00:58:00,634 --> 00:58:02,354 Speaker 16: I think they're very stout up front. I think they 1240 00:58:02,394 --> 00:58:05,954 Speaker 16: work well together, and they're double teams. They definitely get 1241 00:58:06,474 --> 00:58:08,874 Speaker 16: a lot of movement off the ball. So we got 1242 00:58:08,874 --> 00:58:10,514 Speaker 16: to go out there and play with good fundamentals, good 1243 00:58:10,554 --> 00:58:13,994 Speaker 16: pad level, and really try to control the line of scrimmage. Obviously, 1244 00:58:14,074 --> 00:58:16,594 Speaker 16: the receivers do a good job that you know, just 1245 00:58:16,594 --> 00:58:18,994 Speaker 16: a mix of speed, a mix of size, So we 1246 00:58:19,074 --> 00:58:21,154 Speaker 16: definitely have to do a good job marrying up the 1247 00:58:21,274 --> 00:58:24,954 Speaker 16: rush and the coverage going to Connor. I mean, this 1248 00:58:25,034 --> 00:58:28,194 Speaker 16: guy still going. It's been very impressive to see that 1249 00:58:28,874 --> 00:58:31,234 Speaker 16: a guy at this age is still running very hard. 1250 00:58:31,314 --> 00:58:33,674 Speaker 16: He's tough, he can run between the tackles, he can 1251 00:58:33,754 --> 00:58:36,114 Speaker 16: run outside, he can run you over, he can run 1252 00:58:36,154 --> 00:58:38,114 Speaker 16: around you. So he's a he's a very good player 1253 00:58:39,074 --> 00:58:41,274 Speaker 16: and it's good to see that he's you know, after 1254 00:58:41,314 --> 00:58:42,994 Speaker 16: all that he's been through, that he's still playing at 1255 00:58:43,034 --> 00:58:45,034 Speaker 16: a high level at this at this point in time. 1256 00:58:45,394 --> 00:58:48,554 Speaker 16: And then Special teams look, obviously, you know Chad's over there. 1257 00:58:48,714 --> 00:58:50,154 Speaker 16: You know, he was a Special Teams Player of the 1258 00:58:50,154 --> 00:58:52,874 Speaker 16: Month I think the first month he was there. But 1259 00:58:52,874 --> 00:58:55,274 Speaker 16: they have a lot of game changing type of players 1260 00:58:55,274 --> 00:59:02,314 Speaker 16: on Special teams as well. With that being said, fire away. 1261 00:59:00,314 --> 00:59:02,434 Speaker 5: He has time to a little bit what do you 1262 00:59:02,474 --> 00:59:03,474 Speaker 5: want to see your team do? 1263 00:59:03,794 --> 00:59:06,754 Speaker 6: Obviously, win, but in order to get there better than 1264 00:59:06,794 --> 00:59:07,434 Speaker 6: they've done. 1265 00:59:07,314 --> 00:59:10,434 Speaker 16: He places, No, I mean, it's it's all about winning. 1266 00:59:10,554 --> 00:59:12,354 Speaker 16: It's all about winning. And I hate to say that. 1267 00:59:12,394 --> 00:59:14,434 Speaker 16: I know you said besides win, but it's all about 1268 00:59:14,434 --> 00:59:17,234 Speaker 16: winning and it's all about going out there playing complimentary 1269 00:59:17,234 --> 00:59:18,914 Speaker 16: football and that's what we want to see and that 1270 00:59:18,994 --> 00:59:20,714 Speaker 16: has been the goal. Earlier in the season I said 1271 00:59:20,714 --> 00:59:22,114 Speaker 16: the same thing, like when we get to the end 1272 00:59:22,114 --> 00:59:24,594 Speaker 16: of the season, we got to make sure that we're 1273 00:59:24,594 --> 00:59:27,354 Speaker 16: playing our best football and that's still the goal. 1274 00:59:27,394 --> 00:59:30,113 Speaker 5: Moves yesterday, including party ways with kg On Moore. 1275 00:59:30,074 --> 00:59:31,674 Speaker 7: Can you talk a little bit about what do you do? 1276 00:59:32,434 --> 00:59:34,113 Speaker 10: It was a it was a mutual thing. And look 1277 00:59:34,154 --> 00:59:35,234 Speaker 10: kJ he had. 1278 00:59:35,514 --> 00:59:38,034 Speaker 16: I mean even when he was inactive, he was just 1279 00:59:38,594 --> 00:59:41,794 Speaker 16: a great professional, great person, a great leader. It just 1280 00:59:41,834 --> 00:59:46,194 Speaker 16: didn't work out and we decided to part with defensively 1281 00:59:46,314 --> 00:59:48,633 Speaker 16: draw you guys have got most of the guys back, 1282 00:59:48,794 --> 00:59:50,474 Speaker 16: but you guys are still struggling on that side of 1283 00:59:50,474 --> 00:59:50,794 Speaker 16: the ball. 1284 00:59:51,514 --> 00:59:52,794 Speaker 5: What do you think the cause of that is? 1285 00:59:53,154 --> 00:59:55,474 Speaker 10: And what can you and DeMarcus do moving forward to 1286 00:59:55,514 --> 00:59:57,914 Speaker 10: try to fix that? I mean, look, it starts, It starts. 1287 00:59:57,954 --> 01:00:00,113 Speaker 16: It always starts with me as a coach, no matter 1288 01:00:00,154 --> 01:00:02,274 Speaker 16: what side of the ball we're talking about.

Not happy with me yesterday? Yeah, on 1466 01:07:31,194 --> 01:07:36,234 Speaker 5: the Twitter machine because I said that the whole full 1467 01:07:36,274 --> 01:07:39,113 Speaker 5: back thing with with you know that we were talking about, 1468 01:07:39,154 --> 01:07:41,514 Speaker 5: and it's like, yeah, a versatile full back. I think 1469 01:07:41,554 --> 01:07:43,754 Speaker 5: there's still a place for a guy that can Kyle 1470 01:07:43,914 --> 01:07:46,034 Speaker 5: used check. You can get out and catch some passes 1471 01:07:46,074 --> 01:07:49,034 Speaker 5: and line up in different spots and give the defenses 1472 01:07:49,074 --> 01:07:51,794 Speaker 5: different things to, you know, create matchup problems. I'm not 1473 01:07:51,954 --> 01:07:55,154 Speaker 5: necessarily interested in old school full back like James Devlin, 1474 01:07:55,994 --> 01:07:58,593 Speaker 5: to which he says that they haven't won anything since 1475 01:07:58,634 --> 01:08:00,874 Speaker 5: he left, Like he had my whole quote, they haven't 1476 01:08:00,874 --> 01:08:03,114 Speaker 5: won anything since he left, And that's not a coincidence, 1477 01:08:04,474 --> 01:08:06,634 Speaker 5: to which I would say, no, it's actually the definition 1478 01:08:06,714 --> 01:08:11,794 Speaker 5: of a coincidence. And they lost Brady at the same time. 1479 01:08:13,074 --> 01:08:14,874 Speaker 5: That might be the bigger factor in the fact that 1480 01:08:14,914 --> 01:08:19,634 Speaker 5: they haven't won, which I actually think Boston Cream that's 1481 01:08:19,634 --> 01:08:22,714 Speaker 5: what I was most say, mostly usually kidding around, and 1482 01:08:22,834 --> 01:08:24,514 Speaker 5: I think that he was like that. I think I 1483 01:08:24,554 --> 01:08:27,914 Speaker 5: think he was being very sarcastic. Do the math other 1484 01:08:27,994 --> 01:08:29,874 Speaker 5: people did not take take to a sarcas. 1485 01:08:30,034 --> 01:08:31,954 Speaker 6: That's his brilliance that he'll say that he'll start the 1486 01:08:33,954 --> 01:08:35,594 Speaker 6: start the fighting and he just sits back in. 1487 01:08:35,794 --> 01:08:38,554 Speaker 5: So I do I do appreciate Boston Cream's attempt I 1488 01:08:38,674 --> 01:08:39,954 Speaker 5: think attempt at humor. 1489 01:08:40,394 --> 01:08:41,794 Speaker 7: I would say other people were. 1490 01:08:41,714 --> 01:08:42,354 Speaker 5: Not happy with me. 1491 01:08:43,954 --> 01:08:46,994 Speaker 7: The Patriots have drafted eleven wide receivers in the second 1492 01:08:47,074 --> 01:08:50,674 Speaker 7: round in their existence.

Now you're talking about just taking 1624 01:15:02,074 --> 01:15:02,994 Speaker 6: a flyer on somebody. 1625 01:15:03,354 --> 01:15:05,754 Speaker 7: Duce Earlier, I said Terry Bradshaw shouldn't be in the 1626 01:15:05,834 --> 01:15:08,434 Speaker 7: Hall of Fame, oh Jackie, and Arbor says he does 1627 01:15:08,554 --> 01:15:11,314 Speaker 7: deserve Besides his four Super Bowl victories. He was a 1628 01:15:11,394 --> 01:15:14,314 Speaker 7: six time AFC champion. At the time of his retirement, 1629 01:15:14,354 --> 01:15:18,034 Speaker 7: he held six super Bowl records, five postseason passing records. 1630 01:15:18,354 --> 01:15:21,194 Speaker 7: He was NFL MVP and seventy eight. He's a member 1631 01:15:21,234 --> 01:15:24,434 Speaker 7: of the seventies NFL All Decade Team. He was All 1632 01:15:24,554 --> 01:15:27,314 Speaker 7: Pro and seven and a three time Pro Bowler. His 1633 01:15:27,434 --> 01:15:30,834 Speaker 7: outstanding career achievements weren't his membership in the NFL Hall 1634 01:15:30,874 --> 01:15:33,594 Speaker 7: of Fame. Yeah, he wrote on the Steelers coattails. 1635 01:15:33,674 --> 01:15:35,954 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I would say that he definitely was 1636 01:15:36,034 --> 01:15:38,914 Speaker 5: a product of a great team. But he was great 1637 01:15:38,954 --> 01:15:40,914 Speaker 5: when he needed to be too, Like he was like 1638 01:15:41,074 --> 01:15:45,434 Speaker 5: he had some good performances, you know, thirty five thirty 1639 01:15:45,474 --> 01:15:48,794 Speaker 5: one over Dallas in whatever Super Bowl thirteen, and then 1640 01:15:49,154 --> 01:15:51,794 Speaker 5: like thirty one nineteen over the Rams the following year 1641 01:15:52,354 --> 01:15:54,914 Speaker 5: in fourteen. You know, maybe earlier in his career they 1642 01:15:54,954 --> 01:15:58,274 Speaker 5: were a little bit more defensive oriented games, but he 1643 01:15:58,434 --> 01:16:00,834 Speaker 5: was a great deep ball thrower. Did he say that 1644 01:16:00,954 --> 01:16:04,234 Speaker 5: he was an AFC champion six times? 1645 01:16:04,354 --> 01:16:05,154 Speaker 7: Yeah, that's what he said. 1646 01:16:05,554 --> 01:16:07,994 Speaker 5: That's not accurate because if you're an AFC champion, that 1647 01:16:08,034 --> 01:16:09,634 Speaker 5: means you lost in the Super Bowl, right right, Not 1648 01:16:09,874 --> 01:16:11,914 Speaker 5: like miss I'm not overthinking North. 1649 01:16:12,074 --> 01:16:14,434 Speaker 7: Well, you could have won in the Super Bowl if 1650 01:16:14,434 --> 01:16:15,674 Speaker 7: you're an AFC champion, but. 1651 01:16:15,714 --> 01:16:20,074 Speaker 5: They won four for super Bowls, not six. They didn't 1652 01:16:20,074 --> 01:16:23,634 Speaker 5: lose any Oh, they didn't lose any Okay, those Steelers 1653 01:16:23,714 --> 01:16:26,194 Speaker 5: teams didn't lose any super Bowls, So then that's not true. 1654 01:16:26,594 --> 01:16:29,994 Speaker 5: I wonder if he meant AFC Central champs. Maybe that's yeah, 1655 01:16:30,154 --> 01:16:32,474 Speaker 5: maybe six times AFC Central chants. 1656 01:16:32,514 --> 01:16:34,274 Speaker 6: Maybe he should have say that, Evan, No one hates 1657 01:16:34,314 --> 01:16:36,474 Speaker 6: the Steelers Hall of Fame from the seventies. 1658 01:16:36,634 --> 01:16:39,874 Speaker 5: Well, anybody that's ever had any success in any endeavor 1659 01:16:39,954 --> 01:16:44,314 Speaker 5: in the league that's not Patriots's either stinks, overrated or 1660 01:16:44,394 --> 01:16:45,434 Speaker 5: product the officiating. 1661 01:16:46,114 --> 01:16:48,394 Speaker 7: Patrick and Ottawa, I have to disagree with you, Fred. 1662 01:16:48,474 --> 01:16:52,274 Speaker 7: Many teams have established cultures without winning. Greg Chaiano's Tampa 1663 01:16:52,354 --> 01:16:53,114 Speaker 7: Bay Buccaneers. 1664 01:16:54,674 --> 01:16:57,434 Speaker 5: The culture was dirty, that was their culture. 1665 01:16:57,514 --> 01:16:58,994 Speaker 7: Detroit Dan Campbell. 1666 01:16:58,834 --> 01:17:00,914 Speaker 5: Again, I went over that one, but go ahead. 1667 01:17:01,314 --> 01:17:04,314 Speaker 7: All of these. Both of those teams were not winning necessarily, 1668 01:17:04,434 --> 01:17:08,074 Speaker 7: but we're establishing a culture before being they were able 1669 01:17:08,074 --> 01:17:11,034 Speaker 7: to actually consistently win. For that culture to stay, winning 1670 01:17:11,474 --> 01:17:14,314 Speaker 7: must happen, But you can still establish how things are 1671 01:17:14,354 --> 01:17:16,994 Speaker 7: going to be before the winning actually starts to. 1672 01:17:17,034 --> 01:17:19,314 Speaker 5: Happen, and I agree with that, and I used Detroit 1673 01:17:19,394 --> 01:17:22,074 Speaker 5: as an example. But I just think that they were 1674 01:17:22,154 --> 01:17:26,194 Speaker 5: kind of until they won. They were kind of mocked 1675 01:17:26,554 --> 01:17:29,994 Speaker 5: for taking on Dan Campbell's you know, big tough guy. 1676 01:17:30,554 --> 01:17:34,594 Speaker 5: You know, I used Carolina right now is establishing an 1677 01:17:34,594 --> 01:17:37,114 Speaker 5: identity of being a really tough team to play against 1678 01:17:37,514 --> 01:17:41,514 Speaker 5: with no talents. But the last five weeks they've been 1679 01:17:41,594 --> 01:17:43,354 Speaker 5: much better than they were in the first five weeks. 1680 01:17:43,514 --> 01:17:46,074 Speaker 6: Yeah, I just think it's tenuous without wins, like you 1681 01:17:46,154 --> 01:17:48,674 Speaker 6: can have that, but it's fleeting for how long you 1682 01:17:48,754 --> 01:17:50,274 Speaker 6: can live in that space because. 1683 01:17:50,154 --> 01:17:53,634 Speaker 5: Canton wish again next year, Detroit went three thirteen to one, 1684 01:17:53,754 --> 01:17:54,674 Speaker 5: then went nine to eight. 1685 01:17:54,794 --> 01:17:55,674 Speaker 7: Yeah, right exactly. 1686 01:17:55,714 --> 01:17:57,954 Speaker 5: If they went three thirteen to one again, it probably 1687 01:17:57,994 --> 01:18:00,434 Speaker 5: would have fired Campbell. They wouldn't need to start all 1688 01:18:00,474 --> 01:18:02,794 Speaker 5: over again and find a new identity, right, But they 1689 01:18:02,834 --> 01:18:08,074 Speaker 5: were able to have success after that. But we used Actually, 1690 01:18:08,114 --> 01:18:09,394 Speaker 5: Fred I think is the one who brought up the 1691 01:18:09,474 --> 01:18:11,914 Speaker 5: Lions as an example of a team that plays the 1692 01:18:12,034 --> 01:18:12,954 Speaker 5: identity of their code. 1693 01:18:13,234 --> 01:18:15,434 Speaker 6: I struggled to think of another example of a team that, 1694 01:18:16,434 --> 01:18:18,714 Speaker 6: I mean really said what they want to do and 1695 01:18:18,834 --> 01:18:21,354 Speaker 6: they did it. And they got ridiculed for it a lot, 1696 01:18:21,514 --> 01:18:24,354 Speaker 6: but then they grew into it and now they embrace 1697 01:18:24,394 --> 01:18:26,834 Speaker 6: it and embody it. And I can't think of that 1698 01:18:26,994 --> 01:18:30,434 Speaker 6: ever happening before. I think usually how it happens is 1699 01:18:30,994 --> 01:18:32,954 Speaker 6: kind of like it's happening here, like you're up, you're down, 1700 01:18:33,034 --> 01:18:34,474 Speaker 6: you win some, you lose some, and then you start 1701 01:18:34,514 --> 01:18:37,074 Speaker 6: to win some games a certain way and that becomes 1702 01:18:37,154 --> 01:18:37,354 Speaker 6: like a. 1703 01:18:37,354 --> 01:18:39,554 Speaker 5: Lot of guys talk about it, you know there in 1704 01:18:39,594 --> 01:18:40,794 Speaker 5: their introductory press contra. 1705 01:18:41,154 --> 01:18:44,354 Speaker 7: That's all bullshit. You know, I don't know what it 1706 01:18:44,434 --> 01:18:44,834 Speaker 7: doesn't mean. 1707 01:18:45,154 --> 01:18:46,354 Speaker 5: I don't know what we're doing today. 1708 01:18:46,674 --> 01:18:47,954 Speaker 7: I swear I don't know. 1709 01:18:48,274 --> 01:18:50,594 Speaker 5: I mean, this is gonna get down as like a 1710 01:18:50,754 --> 01:18:53,794 Speaker 5: very unique show where Paul's the only professional happened. I 1711 01:18:53,874 --> 01:18:55,314 Speaker 5: keep wanting to say this, like I just had to 1712 01:18:55,354 --> 01:18:56,514 Speaker 5: swear again. 1713 01:18:56,794 --> 01:18:59,874 Speaker 6: I think I have the hardest I've ever left on 1714 01:18:59,994 --> 01:19:03,194 Speaker 6: this show. Was Fred's line about the side of the 1715 01:19:03,314 --> 01:19:08,994 Speaker 6: highway like little memorial. I still I laughed so hard 1716 01:19:09,034 --> 01:19:10,114 Speaker 6: and I still laugh about that. 1717 01:19:10,154 --> 01:19:12,354 Speaker 5: That I think is the funniest thing I've ever. 1718 01:19:12,394 --> 01:19:13,354 Speaker 7: Experienced on this show. 1719 01:19:13,434 --> 01:19:20,514 Speaker 5: It was good like some solemn, like you know, nightmare 1720 01:19:20,594 --> 01:19:23,394 Speaker 5: of a memory for people and He's like, you should 1721 01:19:23,434 --> 01:19:26,194 Speaker 5: do that when you took the dumb. 1722 01:19:26,234 --> 01:19:28,434 Speaker 6: Whenever I go by him, I feel so bad and 1723 01:19:28,554 --> 01:19:31,034 Speaker 6: I think, and it's like Mom and Dad r I P. 1724 01:19:31,474 --> 01:19:34,994 Speaker 5: You know Jesus, they go right about myself? 1725 01:19:35,154 --> 01:19:35,754 Speaker 7: Was it that tree? 1726 01:19:35,834 --> 01:19:35,994 Speaker 11: You know? 1727 01:19:36,114 --> 01:19:38,354 Speaker 6: Like you go through all these morbid thoughts. 1728 01:19:38,754 --> 01:19:41,114 Speaker 5: Like if God forbid that ever happened to someone that 1729 01:19:41,274 --> 01:19:43,834 Speaker 5: was close to me, Like and then Fred's like, you 1730 01:19:43,874 --> 01:19:46,314 Speaker 5: should you should memorialize that where you took that dump. 1731 01:19:47,474 --> 01:19:51,034 Speaker 7: Absolutely, I think it's worth it's worth something. It's one 1732 01:19:51,034 --> 01:19:56,754 Speaker 7: of my favorites. Good Fred, Shane and Calgary. With regards 1733 01:19:56,794 --> 01:20:01,073 Speaker 7: to Drake May's captaincy, when did Tom Brady first become captain? Personally, 1734 01:20:01,114 --> 01:20:03,394 Speaker 7: I would agree with Fred that making a captain this 1735 01:20:03,514 --> 01:20:05,074 Speaker 7: year would be a good idea. It would set the 1736 01:20:05,194 --> 01:20:08,114 Speaker 7: tone going forward that we have definitely found our guy. 1737 01:20:08,274 --> 01:20:10,394 Speaker 5: I think it was O two. But can I ask 1738 01:20:10,474 --> 01:20:11,994 Speaker 5: a question and I don't know the answer to it. 1739 01:20:12,034 --> 01:20:14,554 Speaker 5: It's going to be upfront about that. Do you think 1740 01:20:14,594 --> 01:20:16,954 Speaker 5: there's a team in the league that has a starting 1741 01:20:17,074 --> 01:20:20,714 Speaker 5: quarterback in year two or more that isn't the captain, 1742 01:20:21,314 --> 01:20:23,114 Speaker 5: like they have a definitive starting quarterback. 1743 01:20:23,194 --> 01:20:25,194 Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't think so young. 1744 01:20:25,554 --> 01:20:27,554 Speaker 5: I'm not talking about like Aidan O'Connell. 1745 01:20:27,114 --> 01:20:29,514 Speaker 6: And with the Raiders, right, like someone like Daniel Jones. 1746 01:20:29,594 --> 01:20:32,834 Speaker 5: Daniel Jones was probably at right, probably, but still Bryce 1747 01:20:32,914 --> 01:20:34,314 Speaker 5: Young is probably even a captain. 1748 01:20:34,914 --> 01:20:36,834 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, Jacoby Brissette was a captain. 1749 01:20:37,714 --> 01:20:39,874 Speaker 5: But I just wonder if there's a single team that 1750 01:20:40,074 --> 01:20:45,034 Speaker 5: had an entrenched starting quarterback in year two or greater 1751 01:20:46,074 --> 01:20:47,354 Speaker 5: that wasn't the quarterback. 1752 01:20:47,114 --> 01:20:51,274 Speaker 7: Jimmy garopol captain. When was he entrenched in second year 1753 01:20:51,354 --> 01:20:52,234 Speaker 7: in San Francisco. 1754 01:20:52,874 --> 01:20:54,874 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm sure he was a captain or was he? 1755 01:20:55,234 --> 01:20:55,954 Speaker 5: I'm sure he was. 1756 01:20:56,114 --> 01:20:56,474 Speaker 7: I don't know. 1757 01:20:56,674 --> 01:20:58,994 Speaker 5: I'm just I just I don't. I don't Again, I 1758 01:20:59,034 --> 01:21:00,234 Speaker 5: don't know the answer to the question. 1759 01:21:00,834 --> 01:21:03,594 Speaker 6: But like Kirk Cousins, he's a captain right in Atlanta. 1760 01:21:03,874 --> 01:21:06,274 Speaker 6: Like guys who switch teams but they're established still and 1761 01:21:06,314 --> 01:21:08,234 Speaker 6: they're going to be the starter, usually they get to 1762 01:21:08,234 --> 01:21:09,914 Speaker 6: be the starter, they get to be a captain as well. 1763 01:21:10,234 --> 01:21:10,954 Speaker 5: I just think if you. 1764 01:21:11,234 --> 01:21:13,234 Speaker 7: Look up to see if Jimmy Garoppolo was ever a 1765 01:21:13,314 --> 01:21:14,554 Speaker 7: captain at forty nine. 1766 01:21:14,434 --> 01:21:16,954 Speaker 5: If you have a starting quarterback, my guess is he's 1767 01:21:16,954 --> 01:21:17,434 Speaker 5: a captain. 1768 01:21:17,714 --> 01:21:23,154 Speaker 7: I would guess too.

This 1889 01:26:35,714 --> 01:26:38,074 Speaker 7: look could deal with truth serum time. I'm gonna give 1890 01:26:38,074 --> 01:26:40,114 Speaker 7: you two scenarios and you have to pick which you'd 1891 01:26:40,234 --> 01:26:45,474 Speaker 7: rather see happen. While considering the ramifications, vcations for the 1892 01:26:45,554 --> 01:26:48,674 Speaker 7: short and long term future of the Patriots. Patriots go 1893 01:26:48,794 --> 01:26:50,794 Speaker 7: two and two in the last four games. The media 1894 01:26:50,914 --> 01:26:54,954 Speaker 7: are impressed, shut up about Male's future. However, because they 1895 01:26:55,034 --> 01:26:57,514 Speaker 7: now have five wins, they get the eighth pick in 1896 01:26:57,594 --> 01:27:01,354 Speaker 7: the twenty twenty five draft, subsequently fortieth overall pick in 1897 01:27:01,434 --> 01:27:04,434 Speaker 7: round two. Okay, so two and two in the last 1898 01:27:04,474 --> 01:27:11,634 Speaker 7: four games, the media is quiet. Everything's better, but eighth overall. 1899 01:27:12,354 --> 01:27:13,874 Speaker 5: Now, those are the two choices. 1900 01:27:13,954 --> 01:27:15,754 Speaker 6: No Number one's coming round. 1901 01:27:15,834 --> 01:27:16,594 Speaker 5: That's choice. 1902 01:27:16,634 --> 01:27:20,874 Speaker 7: That's one choice. The second choice is the Patriots lose 1903 01:27:21,594 --> 01:27:25,074 Speaker 7: all four games, the media has tons of negative to 1904 01:27:25,274 --> 01:27:28,474 Speaker 7: feed on for months. However, it secures the first overall 1905 01:27:28,514 --> 01:27:31,514 Speaker 7: pick of the twenty twenty five draft, subsequently the thirty 1906 01:27:31,554 --> 01:27:32,554 Speaker 7: third pick in round two. 1907 01:27:33,154 --> 01:27:37,474 Speaker 5: One one. You'd rather have one, absolutely, the first option, 1908 01:27:37,674 --> 01:27:38,554 Speaker 5: not the number one pick. 1909 01:27:39,194 --> 01:27:39,234 Speaker 3: Not. 1910 01:27:39,274 --> 01:27:42,594 Speaker 5: According to Jeffrey, I don't think there's anybody worthy of 1911 01:27:42,634 --> 01:27:42,954 Speaker 5: the number. 1912 01:27:43,034 --> 01:27:44,914 Speaker 7: He says to me. The choice is clear, lose out. 1913 01:27:45,114 --> 01:27:47,634 Speaker 7: Enter a draft where the worst case scenario is you 1914 01:27:47,754 --> 01:27:48,554 Speaker 7: have Travis Hunter. 1915 01:27:50,874 --> 01:27:54,154 Speaker 5: Really, and yeah, like what does that do for you? 1916 01:27:54,714 --> 01:27:57,474 Speaker 5: Like I'm not saying I wouldn't take Travis Hunter, but 1917 01:27:57,714 --> 01:28:02,514 Speaker 5: like that's a yeah, Like how many teams are a 1918 01:28:02,594 --> 01:28:03,354 Speaker 5: cornerback away. 1919 01:28:04,834 --> 01:28:06,794 Speaker 6: I know that's I mean, that's what's scary about him 1920 01:28:06,794 --> 01:28:08,834 Speaker 6: to me.

Fox 1941 01:29:07,314 --> 01:29:10,274 Speaker 7: and CBS both have double headers on Sunday. Why don't 1942 01:29:10,314 --> 01:29:12,714 Speaker 7: they do this every Sunday. Isn't there enough meat on 1943 01:29:12,794 --> 01:29:15,034 Speaker 7: the bones of the NFL that everyone comes out of winter. 1944 01:29:15,714 --> 01:29:16,514 Speaker 6: That's a great question. 1945 01:29:16,754 --> 01:29:18,754 Speaker 7: The Yeah, it used to be a rule that both 1946 01:29:18,834 --> 01:29:21,514 Speaker 7: networks couldn't have double headers and they switch off, right. 1947 01:29:23,314 --> 01:29:26,874 Speaker 5: I believe it's the home mark. Get didn't have a 1948 01:29:26,954 --> 01:29:31,954 Speaker 5: game opposite it, right, so the Patriots would play It's 1949 01:29:31,954 --> 01:29:35,194 Speaker 5: a CBS game this week, I think, so there wouldn't 1950 01:29:35,194 --> 01:29:37,154 Speaker 5: be a doubleheader game on Fox. 1951 01:29:37,274 --> 01:29:41,434 Speaker 7: So to be clear, every week, except for like when 1952 01:29:41,994 --> 01:29:45,114 Speaker 7: CBS used to have the US Open tennis every week, 1953 01:29:45,554 --> 01:29:49,114 Speaker 7: both networks have games in both time slots, correct, but 1954 01:29:49,834 --> 01:29:52,554 Speaker 7: depending on where you are, you may not be able 1955 01:29:52,634 --> 01:29:54,994 Speaker 7: to see both games. I believe that you are correct 1956 01:29:55,034 --> 01:29:58,194 Speaker 7: because of it's a home game. But CBS and Fox 1957 01:29:58,434 --> 01:30:01,914 Speaker 7: both have games at one and four every week. That's 1958 01:30:01,954 --> 01:30:03,994 Speaker 7: how I am, except for when the US Open used 1959 01:30:03,994 --> 01:30:04,674 Speaker 7: to be on c but in. 1960 01:30:04,754 --> 01:30:08,554 Speaker 5: The Boston market. I believe the rule and maybe this 1961 01:30:08,674 --> 01:30:10,834 Speaker 5: isn't a rule anymore, but you couldn't have a game 1962 01:30:10,994 --> 01:30:14,514 Speaker 5: opposite your home team, So if you played Sunday at one, 1963 01:30:15,514 --> 01:30:17,394 Speaker 5: there wouldn't be a game Sunday at one on the 1964 01:30:17,434 --> 01:30:19,514 Speaker 5: other network, right, Or if. 1965 01:30:19,434 --> 01:30:20,754 Speaker 6: You're going at four. There's not going to be a 1966 01:30:20,794 --> 01:30:22,914 Speaker 6: game at one before it, right, No. 1967 01:30:23,034 --> 01:30:23,514 Speaker 7: There could be. 1968 01:30:23,674 --> 01:30:26,514 Speaker 5: There could be depending on who we had the double header. 1969 01:30:26,594 --> 01:30:31,394 Speaker 5: But I think the way Fred describes it as accurate. Yeah, 1970 01:30:31,434 --> 01:30:35,514 Speaker 5: I think there's I think there's double headers on both 1971 01:30:35,634 --> 01:30:38,834 Speaker 5: networks every week. You just can't see all four games 1972 01:30:38,874 --> 01:30:39,514 Speaker 5: at the same time. 1973 01:30:39,634 --> 01:30:39,994 Speaker 7: That's right. 1974 01:30:40,794 --> 01:30:43,154 Speaker 6: I had to deal with that this weekend where you're like, oh, shoot, 1975 01:30:43,194 --> 01:30:44,994 Speaker 6: what games am I even getting? I don't even realize, 1976 01:30:45,034 --> 01:30:45,554 Speaker 6: which I see. 1977 01:30:45,634 --> 01:30:47,874 Speaker 5: That's the funny part now, is I don't I don't watch. 1978 01:30:47,994 --> 01:30:50,874 Speaker 5: I just watched eight ninety nine. I watched I'm on 1979 01:30:51,034 --> 01:30:51,514 Speaker 5: Red Zone. 1980 01:30:52,034 --> 01:30:54,194 Speaker 7: I feel like when I watch red Zone. 1981 01:30:54,234 --> 01:30:58,634 Speaker 5: The only time, the only time I changed it is 1982 01:30:59,434 --> 01:31:01,034 Speaker 5: when we got to like the there was about ten 1983 01:31:01,074 --> 01:31:03,354 Speaker 5: minutes left in the Bills game, and I went to 1984 01:31:03,834 --> 01:31:06,514 Speaker 5: Fox to watch to watch the Bills game because that was, 1985 01:31:06,594 --> 01:31:08,834 Speaker 5: you know, the other game. I was kind of keeping 1986 01:31:08,914 --> 01:31:10,594 Speaker 5: Red Zone on just to kind of keep an eye 1987 01:31:10,634 --> 01:31:15,114 Speaker 5: on Arizona because we're playing them. But then, you know, 1988 01:31:15,234 --> 01:31:17,954 Speaker 5: the Bills game got compelling and as they were making 1989 01:31:17,954 --> 01:31:20,674 Speaker 5: the comeback and I watched I stretch of them. 1990 01:31:20,714 --> 01:31:24,594 Speaker 7: I'm cheating, you know, on the league when I watched 1991 01:31:24,634 --> 01:31:25,114 Speaker 7: Red Zone. 1992 01:31:26,634 --> 01:31:27,554 Speaker 5: What do they ever do for you? 1993 01:31:28,634 --> 01:31:31,114 Speaker 7: No, I just feel like I should be watching a 1994 01:31:31,234 --> 01:31:34,114 Speaker 7: game instead of you know, just snippets of game. 1995 01:31:34,194 --> 01:31:36,634 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's hard for me. It's hard for me to 1996 01:31:36,794 --> 01:31:37,554 Speaker 6: plug it all together. 1997 01:31:38,074 --> 01:31:40,634 Speaker 7: But it's easy. Just start watching it. You get hooked, 1998 01:31:40,674 --> 01:31:42,634 Speaker 7: I know, Like how do you turn away? 1999 01:31:43,114 --> 01:31:45,514 Speaker 5: And it's it's so funny, Like you know how you're 2000 01:31:45,554 --> 01:31:48,114 Speaker 5: always like, oh, you know, after this drive is over, 2001 01:31:48,154 --> 01:31:50,114 Speaker 5: they'll go to commercial. You know, I'll go get that 2002 01:31:50,234 --> 01:31:52,034 Speaker 5: little laundry, or I'll get something to eat. 2003 01:31:52,314 --> 01:31:54,274 Speaker 6: Just keep going right and going. 2004 01:31:54,434 --> 01:31:56,554 Speaker 5: You get you try to wait for like the halftime 2005 01:31:56,634 --> 01:31:58,754 Speaker 5: window of the one o'clock games when they all go. 2006 01:31:58,834 --> 01:32:00,634 Speaker 6: To only one game going on right now? 2007 01:32:00,794 --> 01:32:03,634 Speaker 7: Like and you don't like Scott Hansen. I think he 2008 01:32:03,714 --> 01:32:04,794 Speaker 7: does a fine job. 2009 01:32:05,874 --> 01:32:09,194 Speaker 5: So fine I had about I lost track. I got 2010 01:32:09,234 --> 01:32:11,674 Speaker 5: to double figures of things that he just completely lost 2011 01:32:11,754 --> 01:32:15,954 Speaker 5: track of on Sunday And it's just so frustrating Dan 2012 01:32:16,074 --> 01:32:18,834 Speaker 5: And again he sees more than I can. I'm just 2013 01:32:18,914 --> 01:32:19,954 Speaker 5: watching the stupid TV. 2014 01:32:20,114 --> 01:32:22,354 Speaker 6: You should hear them, like people email us, like Scott 2015 01:32:22,674 --> 01:32:24,034 Speaker 6: high here's the list. 2016 01:32:23,954 --> 01:32:28,714 Speaker 5: Of your right what a dude, Well, I mean, you'd 2017 01:32:28,754 --> 01:32:29,634 Speaker 5: have to be next level. 2018 01:32:30,194 --> 01:32:33,394 Speaker 7: Dan and Everett writes in would you rather one win 2019 01:32:33,514 --> 01:32:36,354 Speaker 7: close games against the Chargers and Cardinals or blow out 2020 01:32:36,394 --> 01:32:37,394 Speaker 7: the Bills once. 2021 01:32:39,834 --> 01:32:40,314 Speaker 5: More wins. 2022 01:32:40,914 --> 01:32:43,874 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'd probably say one because what if that scenario 2023 01:32:44,074 --> 01:32:45,314 Speaker 6: is the Bills are sitting. 2024 01:32:45,394 --> 01:32:47,954 Speaker 5: Plus, like, does it matter if they blow anybody out 2025 01:32:48,034 --> 01:32:48,434 Speaker 5: or if they win? 2026 01:32:48,634 --> 01:32:50,554 Speaker 6: Like, just win I think would be a good feeling. 2027 01:32:50,594 --> 01:32:53,394 Speaker 6: Though the Chargers playoff jockeying. I mean, you have a 2028 01:32:53,514 --> 01:32:56,674 Speaker 6: chance to really hurt them potentially at that second last 2029 01:32:56,714 --> 01:32:58,714 Speaker 6: game of the season. They might be really desperate for 2030 01:32:58,794 --> 01:32:59,514 Speaker 6: a win at that point. 2031 01:33:00,714 --> 01:33:04,194 Speaker 5: Agreed, you can be spoiler, like you have four teams 2032 01:33:05,234 --> 01:33:09,314 Speaker 5: that are at least involved in the playoffs. You know, 2033 01:33:09,434 --> 01:33:11,394 Speaker 5: I count Arizona as being at least involved. 2034 01:33:11,474 --> 01:33:13,354 Speaker 6: You know they have a losing record, Faden. 2035 01:33:13,314 --> 01:33:16,554 Speaker 5: Yeah, they're a game back. They win, Seattle loses all 2036 01:33:16,594 --> 01:33:19,514 Speaker 5: of a sudden. You know, they're even in record. They 2037 01:33:19,594 --> 01:33:22,794 Speaker 5: lost the tiebreaker, but they're right there. Not they wouldn't 2038 01:33:22,794 --> 01:33:24,754 Speaker 5: be even. Are they two games back? Yeah, they're two 2039 01:33:24,794 --> 01:33:28,234 Speaker 5: games back, never mind two games eight and five six. 2040 01:33:29,354 --> 01:33:32,794 Speaker 7: Eight five to five past five hundred is the TPX hotline. 2041 01:33:32,834 --> 01:33:34,514 Speaker 7: If you want to get your call in before everyon 2042 01:33:34,554 --> 01:33:39,194 Speaker 7: gets here. You better hurry Brondon in North Carolina's not 2043 01:33:39,314 --> 01:33:41,914 Speaker 7: in at you got any updates for us in North Carolina? Brandon, 2044 01:33:42,594 --> 01:33:45,954 Speaker 7: I read an article talking about Garrett Wilson, who may 2045 01:33:46,074 --> 01:33:49,234 Speaker 7: request the trade next year. Is there any possibility that 2046 01:33:49,754 --> 01:33:52,274 Speaker 7: he could become available? If so, would you rather have 2047 01:33:52,354 --> 01:33:56,634 Speaker 7: Wilson or t Higgins? Also, I'd rather have Garrett. 2048 01:33:56,314 --> 01:33:58,874 Speaker 5: Wilson, I would mean to me too, I think there's 2049 01:33:58,874 --> 01:34:00,634 Speaker 5: a zero percent chance the Jets would trade him to 2050 01:34:00,674 --> 01:34:01,154 Speaker 5: the Patriots. 2051 01:34:01,314 --> 01:34:03,794 Speaker 7: Yeah, Also, do you think Mayo and Kraft would have 2052 01:34:03,914 --> 01:34:06,794 Speaker 7: the guts to move on from Covington? Are defense and 2053 01:34:06,834 --> 01:34:08,914 Speaker 7: needs answers, and I don't think he has experience to 2054 01:34:08,954 --> 01:34:09,834 Speaker 7: give those answers. 2055 01:34:11,314 --> 01:34:13,274 Speaker 6: I mean, I think he's he's he's up against it 2056 01:34:13,354 --> 01:34:15,954 Speaker 6: here these last few games. That couple, you know, challenges, 2057 01:34:16,034 --> 01:34:18,434 Speaker 6: real challenges with Kyler Murray. I mean, I know he's 2058 01:34:18,474 --> 01:34:21,474 Speaker 6: a specialized player, but he does a lot of stuff 2059 01:34:21,514 --> 01:34:24,034 Speaker 6: that is going to challenge this defense and their discipline, 2060 01:34:24,074 --> 01:34:25,754 Speaker 6: things that they've struggled with all the year. And then 2061 01:34:26,234 --> 01:34:29,034 Speaker 6: of course Josh Allen justin Herbert. I mean, I think 2062 01:34:29,194 --> 01:34:31,674 Speaker 6: DeMarcus Covington's got to come up with something, and the 2063 01:34:31,754 --> 01:34:34,514 Speaker 6: guys have to execute it for him to show, you know, 2064 01:34:34,594 --> 01:34:37,274 Speaker 6: to get some people feel positive about the defensive side 2065 01:34:37,314 --> 01:34:38,074 Speaker 6: of the ball going forward. 2066 01:34:39,594 --> 01:34:43,434 Speaker 7: Let's see Bretton Lemonster has a critique of Evan. It's 2067 01:34:43,514 --> 01:34:46,514 Speaker 7: been mentioned before, but not what makes it funny? When 2068 01:34:46,554 --> 01:34:49,994 Speaker 7: Evan does the read for Toyota on Catch twenty two, 2069 01:34:50,474 --> 01:34:53,234 Speaker 7: he says the word toyota three times, but he says 2070 01:34:53,274 --> 01:34:57,234 Speaker 7: it like tyota two times and toyota one time, and 2071 01:34:57,354 --> 01:34:59,714 Speaker 7: it's not always the same place. Most of the time 2072 01:34:59,794 --> 01:35:04,114 Speaker 7: he says Tyota, Toyota, tyota, but sometimes the Toyota is 2073 01:35:04,194 --> 01:35:07,954 Speaker 7: the first one or last one, so we'll have to 2074 01:35:08,074 --> 01:35:08,634 Speaker 7: grill him on that. 2075 01:35:08,994 --> 01:35:11,514 Speaker 6: Yeah, well, don't tell him I don't have to observe 2076 01:35:11,594 --> 01:35:17,754 Speaker 6: it first. Yeah, Toyota, Toyota, Toyota. 2077 01:35:18,434 --> 01:35:23,994 Speaker 7: Well, the old guy that used to do the car commercials, 2078 01:35:24,114 --> 01:35:27,154 Speaker 7: his son is now the owner of the company. But 2079 01:35:30,834 --> 01:35:33,714 Speaker 7: the original, Ernie Bot the father, he used to say tyota, 2080 01:35:33,834 --> 01:35:36,394 Speaker 7: Oh yeah yeah in the commercials. Really yeah. He used 2081 01:35:36,394 --> 01:35:41,434 Speaker 7: to say tyota, you old, Oh yeah. I remember my 2082 01:35:41,594 --> 01:35:46,034 Speaker 7: TV Rusty and Arlen writes in can you give your 2083 01:35:46,074 --> 01:35:49,074 Speaker 7: best guess of what role Cole Strange will play this week? 2084 01:35:49,514 --> 01:35:52,154 Speaker 7: Does he bump Robinson? Or Brown or act as a backup. 2085 01:35:52,754 --> 01:35:54,914 Speaker 7: We have seen how well things go when you move 2086 01:35:54,994 --> 01:35:59,074 Speaker 7: guys around on the line. Frankly, I'm always dubious of 2087 01:35:59,154 --> 01:36:02,074 Speaker 7: guys coming back from a Pteller injury. In the spirit 2088 01:36:02,114 --> 01:36:05,314 Speaker 7: of the Great White Snark, I predict the narrative on 2089 01:36:05,474 --> 01:36:08,354 Speaker 7: cold Strains be that he would have been good if 2090 01:36:08,434 --> 01:36:12,274 Speaker 7: not for that Pateeller tendon injury. Paul seemed to be 2091 01:36:12,354 --> 01:36:14,434 Speaker 7: the first one to acknowledge that he hasn't even been 2092 01:36:14,514 --> 01:36:17,874 Speaker 7: good a good guard really, hence them drafting three guards 2093 01:36:18,114 --> 01:36:20,314 Speaker 7: in the last two drafts. Do you think he's a 2094 01:36:20,394 --> 01:36:21,434 Speaker 7: center moving forward? 2095 01:36:22,194 --> 01:36:23,994 Speaker 6: It sounds like it. I mean, I would say, I 2096 01:36:24,074 --> 01:36:26,034 Speaker 6: mean Evan, I'll tell you to ask him directly, like 2097 01:36:26,074 --> 01:36:29,714 Speaker 6: what eve been playing and he said center. I'm kind 2098 01:36:29,714 --> 01:36:31,314 Speaker 6: of with what Paul said. I think he's going to 2099 01:36:31,354 --> 01:36:33,714 Speaker 6: be a center. I just and it doesn't make sense 2100 01:36:33,754 --> 01:36:35,794 Speaker 6: to me to say this, but like Ben Brown plays 2101 01:36:35,834 --> 01:36:38,714 Speaker 6: a couple series gets like you know, you get that 2102 01:36:38,794 --> 01:36:41,554 Speaker 6: initial part of the game out of the way, and 2103 01:36:41,594 --> 01:36:43,154 Speaker 6: then you and then you put Strange in and see 2104 01:36:43,154 --> 01:36:44,674 Speaker 6: how he does that. I mean that to me, it 2105 01:36:44,714 --> 01:36:48,194 Speaker 6: doesn't make sense to start Strange right out of the shoot. 2106 01:36:48,274 --> 01:36:50,194 Speaker 6: I mean that that seems like asking a lot of him, 2107 01:36:50,354 --> 01:36:53,034 Speaker 6: especially you know, on the road, where it's even harder 2108 01:36:53,074 --> 01:36:54,634 Speaker 6: with the noise and all the things that go on 2109 01:36:54,754 --> 01:36:56,994 Speaker 6: the center. And I just don't want to see them 2110 01:36:57,034 --> 01:36:59,994 Speaker 6: go to Arizona and say, well, we really want to 2111 01:36:59,994 --> 01:37:02,434 Speaker 6: get a look at cold Strange at center. And then 2112 01:37:02,474 --> 01:37:05,074 Speaker 6: it like severely hampers the offense early on because he's 2113 01:37:05,194 --> 01:37:06,874 Speaker 6: he's new to this. I mean, he's never played center 2114 01:37:06,954 --> 01:37:09,674 Speaker 6: in an NFL game before, he's never played a game 2115 01:37:09,714 --> 01:37:11,834 Speaker 6: in this offense before. All those things that that will 2116 01:37:11,874 --> 01:37:14,474 Speaker 6: come into it. So I think Ben Brown for a 2117 01:37:14,514 --> 01:37:16,674 Speaker 6: little bit and then and then a sprinkling of Strange. 2118 01:37:16,674 --> 01:37:18,714 Speaker 6: I don't know how much it'll be, but that's that's 2119 01:37:18,834 --> 01:37:21,274 Speaker 6: what I think. But even that is hard to really 2120 01:37:21,794 --> 01:37:23,794 Speaker 6: wrap your head around, Like, okay, man, good job, you're 2121 01:37:23,834 --> 01:37:26,194 Speaker 6: out now, Cole, here we go. Don't screw it up 2122 01:37:26,274 --> 01:37:27,754 Speaker 6: like we got a you know, a seven point lead 2123 01:37:27,834 --> 01:37:28,754 Speaker 6: right now or something like that. 2124 01:37:29,834 --> 01:37:33,874 Speaker 7: So, uh, Gerard Mayo's press conference today, I assume you 2125 01:37:33,954 --> 01:37:38,474 Speaker 7: were at it. Of course, from what he said, what 2126 01:37:38,594 --> 01:37:40,994 Speaker 7: do you think he thinks the chances are against the 2127 01:37:41,074 --> 01:37:44,194 Speaker 7: Cardinals this week? Who like chances to win? 2128 01:37:44,394 --> 01:37:48,514 Speaker 6: I mean, yeah, like, you know, I you know, I 2129 01:37:48,594 --> 01:37:50,714 Speaker 6: think that these guys work so hard, and I heard 2130 01:37:50,714 --> 01:37:53,034 Speaker 6: this some of the players too, Like I think they 2131 01:37:53,114 --> 01:37:55,474 Speaker 6: believe in themselves, and I think that they really believe 2132 01:37:55,594 --> 01:37:57,994 Speaker 6: that if we just play our best game and we 2133 01:37:58,074 --> 01:38:00,594 Speaker 6: all play well and we play together, that we can 2134 01:38:00,634 --> 01:38:03,794 Speaker 6: beat anybody. I think they really truly do believe that, 2135 01:38:03,834 --> 01:38:06,074 Speaker 6: and I'd say Gerard probably believes that too. It's just 2136 01:38:06,674 --> 01:38:10,274 Speaker 6: I think probably the question is really can we execute? 2137 01:38:10,434 --> 01:38:13,034 Speaker 6: Can we execute for sixty minutes? Can we in the 2138 01:38:13,074 --> 01:38:15,834 Speaker 6: big moments make all the right decisions from the coaching 2139 01:38:15,874 --> 01:38:18,514 Speaker 6: staff right down to the players, and can we make 2140 01:38:18,594 --> 01:38:20,314 Speaker 6: the big plays when the game is on the line. 2141 01:38:20,314 --> 01:38:22,194 Speaker 6: And I mean, I think Drake may gives you some 2142 01:38:22,274 --> 01:38:24,554 Speaker 6: confidence that that you know, you have the quarterback to 2143 01:38:24,634 --> 01:38:26,754 Speaker 6: do that, and I think that that's something that hasn't 2144 01:38:26,794 --> 01:38:29,314 Speaker 6: really existed the last few years around here. But at 2145 01:38:29,354 --> 01:38:31,114 Speaker 6: the same time, you also have to have this the 2146 01:38:31,194 --> 01:38:33,914 Speaker 6: weight of the season weighing on you and saying, God, 2147 01:38:34,074 --> 01:38:35,994 Speaker 6: you know, this game, we did this, and this game, 2148 01:38:36,034 --> 01:38:37,514 Speaker 6: you know we had a chance, but then we screwed 2149 01:38:37,514 --> 01:38:39,194 Speaker 6: it up doing this, and you you know, all those 2150 01:38:39,234 --> 01:38:40,754 Speaker 6: things they're not in the front of your mind, but 2151 01:38:40,794 --> 01:38:42,834 Speaker 6: they're in the back of your mind, and once they 2152 01:38:42,874 --> 01:38:45,274 Speaker 6: start to happen, you realize, we're not playing our perfect 2153 01:38:45,274 --> 01:38:47,114 Speaker 6: game right now, like we got to turn it around, 2154 01:38:47,154 --> 01:38:49,394 Speaker 6: and then it starts the snowball. So I think they 2155 01:38:49,474 --> 01:38:52,434 Speaker 6: still believe in themselves, but it's just you're gonna have 2156 01:38:52,514 --> 01:38:55,114 Speaker 6: to fight through some adversity in these games to really 2157 01:38:55,314 --> 01:38:56,314 Speaker 6: prove it and get wins. 2158 01:38:56,714 --> 01:38:58,314 Speaker 7: And these are teams that all want to really need 2159 01:38:58,394 --> 01:38:58,794 Speaker 7: to win too. 2160 01:38:58,954 --> 01:39:01,554 Speaker 6: So you know, usually I always default to who needs 2161 01:39:01,594 --> 01:39:03,874 Speaker 6: this game more? Bottom line, who needs this taking game 2162 01:39:03,954 --> 01:39:06,674 Speaker 6: more right now? And I would say mostly that's usually 2163 01:39:06,674 --> 01:39:08,914 Speaker 6: the team that wins, and going from here on out, 2164 01:39:08,954 --> 01:39:11,234 Speaker 6: except for maybe the last one, the other team is 2165 01:39:11,234 --> 01:39:12,714 Speaker 6: probably gonna need it more than the Patriots to do. 2166 01:39:13,034 --> 01:39:18,394 Speaker 7: Yeah, do you think that? Do you think that a 2167 01:39:18,554 --> 01:39:22,394 Speaker 7: coach who is a young coach like Gerard Mayo and 2168 01:39:22,594 --> 01:39:25,154 Speaker 7: then a report comes out that, yeah, he's being a valuate, 2169 01:39:25,554 --> 01:39:27,954 Speaker 7: his job depends on blah blah blah, do you think 2170 01:39:28,034 --> 01:39:31,434 Speaker 7: that that helps the team say, you know what, we 2171 01:39:31,514 --> 01:39:33,474 Speaker 7: got to help our coach out. You know, we can't 2172 01:39:33,514 --> 01:39:34,234 Speaker 7: let our coach down. 2173 01:39:34,314 --> 01:39:35,754 Speaker 6: It's a good point for it, I think, I mean, 2174 01:39:35,794 --> 01:39:38,994 Speaker 6: I think that that's kind of a positive that you 2175 01:39:39,034 --> 01:39:42,314 Speaker 6: can see. I think, ah, maybe maybe we'll see I mean, 2176 01:39:42,394 --> 01:39:44,794 Speaker 6: it's it seems like they're kind of feeling like they 2177 01:39:44,874 --> 01:39:48,434 Speaker 6: need to rally around him a little bit. But again, 2178 01:39:48,514 --> 01:39:51,074 Speaker 6: I just I've seen this these seasons go so many times, 2179 01:39:51,114 --> 01:39:53,634 Speaker 6: and it's it's just really hard, especially at this point 2180 01:39:53,674 --> 01:39:56,114 Speaker 6: in the year, to pull it all together and suddenly 2181 01:39:56,194 --> 01:39:58,074 Speaker 6: do something you haven't really done. You're usually going to 2182 01:39:58,154 --> 01:39:59,434 Speaker 6: default back to what you've been doing. 2183 01:39:59,634 --> 01:40:02,914 Speaker 5: Yeah, I was looking on Twitter to see if anybody 2184 01:40:03,034 --> 01:40:06,314 Speaker 5: had any update about Bill. It's people are starting to 2185 01:40:06,394 --> 01:40:09,954 Speaker 5: say it's it's close to being a done deal. But 2186 01:40:10,034 --> 01:40:14,754 Speaker 5: I haven't seen anybody inside Carolina UNC finalizing deal to 2187 01:40:14,874 --> 01:40:17,874 Speaker 5: land Bill Belichick as new new football coach. But I 2188 01:40:17,954 --> 01:40:21,114 Speaker 5: don't think yet anybody has said it's done, but certainly 2189 01:40:21,154 --> 01:40:22,314 Speaker 5: looks like it's trending that way. 2190 01:40:22,434 --> 01:40:24,074 Speaker 7: So who's who do you think the staff is if 2191 01:40:24,114 --> 01:40:27,914 Speaker 7: this happens? You were thinking about it, because if the 2192 01:40:27,994 --> 01:40:32,634 Speaker 7: reports are true, part of Bill's demands are that they 2193 01:40:32,754 --> 01:40:36,834 Speaker 7: hire a GM who handles the recruiting part of it, 2194 01:40:37,394 --> 01:40:40,994 Speaker 7: and that this GM would require a buyout. So he 2195 01:40:41,074 --> 01:40:43,634 Speaker 7: said so the way it was in the report, it's 2196 01:40:43,754 --> 01:40:46,954 Speaker 7: it's confusing. It's as a sitting GM who would require 2197 01:40:46,994 --> 01:40:49,714 Speaker 7: a buyout. There's two ways to look at that. So 2198 01:40:50,114 --> 01:40:52,154 Speaker 7: this person would be our GM, and if you want 2199 01:40:52,194 --> 01:40:53,914 Speaker 7: to get rid of them, you have to give him 2200 01:40:53,914 --> 01:40:56,834 Speaker 7: a buyout. Or it's someone who already has a job 2201 01:40:57,234 --> 01:40:58,994 Speaker 7: that we need to buy out to get him here. 2202 01:40:59,714 --> 01:41:01,634 Speaker 5: That's how I think it's. I think that's right, and 2203 01:41:01,714 --> 01:41:03,314 Speaker 5: I look at it the same way. That's what I 2204 01:41:03,394 --> 01:41:05,314 Speaker 5: think is that there's somebody out there that he wants 2205 01:41:05,394 --> 01:41:07,874 Speaker 5: to be the GM and you're gonna have to buy 2206 01:41:07,954 --> 01:41:09,674 Speaker 5: him out to get them. I take that as being 2207 01:41:09,874 --> 01:41:14,754 Speaker 5: Bears Nigerian who's at BC with Bill O'Brien. That would 2208 01:41:14,754 --> 01:41:17,914 Speaker 5: be my guess yea, No, you know, as as with 2209 01:41:18,074 --> 01:41:20,434 Speaker 5: most most things with me, no information. 2210 01:41:20,434 --> 01:41:24,714 Speaker 6: Well as a college football ignoringis would Bears his position 2211 01:41:24,794 --> 01:41:27,634 Speaker 6: require buyout? As like what is he director of football 2212 01:41:27,634 --> 01:41:28,474 Speaker 6: operations or something? 2213 01:41:28,554 --> 01:41:28,754 Speaker 10: Yeah? 2214 01:41:28,994 --> 01:41:30,754 Speaker 5: My guess is he signed a contractor do that? 2215 01:41:30,954 --> 01:41:31,154 Speaker 10: Yeah? 2216 01:41:31,714 --> 01:41:34,114 Speaker 6: But but do I know that anyone else you could 2217 01:41:34,114 --> 01:41:35,914 Speaker 6: think of? I mean it's hard to say an NFL 2218 01:41:36,034 --> 01:41:38,234 Speaker 6: GM or somebody who's connected to the NFL is gonna 2219 01:41:38,274 --> 01:41:39,634 Speaker 6: be bought out right like that? 2220 01:41:39,914 --> 01:41:43,354 Speaker 5: That doesn't make sense, right, I think any and all 2221 01:41:43,594 --> 01:41:44,834 Speaker 5: options are open. 2222 01:41:46,074 --> 01:41:47,674 Speaker 6: Does he still do all the TV shows? Or do 2223 01:41:47,794 --> 01:41:49,034 Speaker 6: all those just end right now? 2224 01:41:49,114 --> 01:41:52,554 Speaker 7: But and Evan's here but before But a buyout usually 2225 01:41:52,954 --> 01:41:55,274 Speaker 7: the employee gets the money. But in this case, BC 2226 01:41:55,474 --> 01:41:57,474 Speaker 7: would have to get bought out. How does that work? 2227 01:41:59,274 --> 01:42:02,074 Speaker 5: No, you have to pay the the You have to 2228 01:42:02,154 --> 01:42:04,714 Speaker 5: pay them to go away, right, So if you're gonna 2229 01:42:04,754 --> 01:42:07,794 Speaker 5: if he's gonna leave, right, then he has to buy 2230 01:42:07,834 --> 01:42:10,434 Speaker 5: out his contract, so that the school's gonna have to 2231 01:42:10,434 --> 01:42:11,274 Speaker 5: buy out the contract. 2232 01:42:11,314 --> 01:42:14,154 Speaker 7: I'll let the guy leave. No, that's if the school 2233 01:42:14,234 --> 01:42:15,274 Speaker 7: wants to get rid of him. 2234 01:42:15,554 --> 01:42:20,234 Speaker 5: No, yes, Freddie, if he's under contract, he can't leave 2235 01:42:20,394 --> 01:42:23,354 Speaker 5: right unless you pay for him. Then you give him 2236 01:42:23,354 --> 01:42:23,954 Speaker 5: permission to go. 2237 01:42:24,434 --> 01:42:26,154 Speaker 7: You can permission. You don't have to give money. 2238 01:42:26,314 --> 01:42:30,634 Speaker 5: You don't give the person money. But that's what fred 2239 01:42:30,714 --> 01:42:33,394 Speaker 5: Like when Lincoln Riley left Oklahoma, USC had to pay 2240 01:42:33,434 --> 01:42:35,834 Speaker 5: Oklahoma to get Lincoln Riley. It's a buyout. 2241 01:42:35,874 --> 01:42:38,394 Speaker 7: That's how I'm asking. Okay, that's what I'm trying to 2242 01:42:38,394 --> 01:42:41,234 Speaker 7: clear up. So I said, in this case, you pay 2243 01:42:41,394 --> 01:42:42,914 Speaker 7: BC North Carolina. 2244 01:42:42,954 --> 01:42:47,114 Speaker 5: I mean again, I'm I'm making a leap here. Yeah, 2245 01:42:47,274 --> 01:42:49,834 Speaker 5: I think he's talking about beersh Yeah, no, no, what 2246 01:42:50,194 --> 01:42:52,914 Speaker 5: whoever it is? Yeah, guy, guy, if someone is under 2247 01:42:53,034 --> 01:42:55,674 Speaker 5: contract somewhere the North Carolina is gonna have to pay 2248 01:42:55,754 --> 01:42:58,394 Speaker 5: that school money to get that person to come to 2249 01:42:58,434 --> 01:43:01,034 Speaker 5: North Carolina. Right, That's how I took it. It might 2250 01:43:01,114 --> 01:43:02,994 Speaker 5: not be the way it is, but that's how I 2251 01:43:03,114 --> 01:43:03,354 Speaker 5: took it. 2252 01:43:03,394 --> 01:43:21,794 Speaker 7: All right, Evans, here be busting missed.

I 2310 01:46:11,874 --> 01:46:16,594 Speaker 17: think guys actually really enjoy practicing inside. I think it's 2311 01:46:16,594 --> 01:46:18,714 Speaker 17: a reprieve for them in a lot of ways. You know, 2312 01:46:18,834 --> 01:46:22,874 Speaker 17: being up here in New England, whether it's rain, it's cold, whatever, 2313 01:46:23,114 --> 01:46:25,514 Speaker 17: to to have a day to practice in there always 2314 01:46:25,514 --> 01:46:27,674 Speaker 17: seems to be good juice in there, and you can 2315 01:46:27,754 --> 01:46:30,434 Speaker 17: blare the music so it's you know the music's really 2316 01:46:30,554 --> 01:46:33,914 Speaker 17: loud and it always feels a little bit more lively 2317 01:46:34,434 --> 01:46:36,514 Speaker 17: when we're inside for whatever reason. 2318 01:46:36,714 --> 01:46:40,594 Speaker 7: Yeah, and uh in terms of the media, yes, today's 2319 01:46:40,674 --> 01:46:43,274 Speaker 7: Chick fil A Day, Chick fil A Day, that big 2320 01:46:43,394 --> 01:46:46,554 Speaker 7: contingent jumped up, the big contingent, and we were a 2321 01:46:46,674 --> 01:46:49,354 Speaker 7: lot of people obviously a lot of talk about about 2322 01:46:49,434 --> 01:46:51,754 Speaker 7: Bill around the media circles. 2323 01:46:51,794 --> 01:46:55,434 Speaker 17: Our our guy Cam who just graduated from North Carolina 2324 01:46:56,034 --> 01:46:59,034 Speaker 17: had his two cents about it, which was interesting. 2325 01:46:58,714 --> 01:46:59,954 Speaker 7: And uh happy. 2326 01:47:00,794 --> 01:47:02,034 Speaker 8: He was lukewarm. 2327 01:47:02,114 --> 01:47:02,394 Speaker 7: I think. 2328 01:47:02,514 --> 01:47:04,074 Speaker 8: I don't want to speak for him, but he was. 2329 01:47:04,714 --> 01:47:06,834 Speaker 17: I thought it was cool to get such a big 2330 01:47:06,954 --> 01:47:10,114 Speaker 17: name potentially, but I think he has his concerns about 2331 01:47:10,114 --> 01:47:15,114 Speaker 17: the football side of it.

She's been the only one that said 2346 01:47:56,594 --> 01:47:57,314 Speaker 1: it's almost done. 2347 01:47:57,914 --> 01:47:58,634 Speaker 7: There almost. 2348 01:47:58,714 --> 01:48:01,514 Speaker 5: Yeah, everybody keeps saying it's almost done. What's the hold 2349 01:48:01,554 --> 01:48:07,834 Speaker 5: of you're almost pregnant? Yeah, So there's no such thing. 2350 01:48:08,154 --> 01:48:09,914 Speaker 5: See the done or it's And you know who taught 2351 01:48:09,954 --> 01:48:13,794 Speaker 5: me that? Bill? Yeah, I've seen these things. And how 2352 01:48:13,834 --> 01:48:15,994 Speaker 5: many times he goes, I assume, you know, you're talking 2353 01:48:15,994 --> 01:48:17,834 Speaker 5: to guy, you think you have it, and it's not 2354 01:48:17,954 --> 01:48:19,634 Speaker 5: quite done, and it's not done, and then it doesn't 2355 01:48:19,634 --> 01:48:21,954 Speaker 5: get done right. It's not done until it's done right. 2356 01:48:23,114 --> 01:48:25,314 Speaker 5: That's when he used to get mad at Felder for 2357 01:48:25,394 --> 01:48:26,834 Speaker 5: reporting on free agent signings. 2358 01:48:27,354 --> 01:48:30,234 Speaker 7: Back to practice, did you get to see more than 2359 01:48:30,274 --> 01:48:31,274 Speaker 7: stretching any. 2360 01:48:31,354 --> 01:48:34,634 Speaker 8: A little bit? We did see one period of positional drills. 2361 01:48:35,154 --> 01:48:39,394 Speaker 17: I would say during that period, Ben Brown was at 2362 01:48:39,594 --> 01:48:42,914 Speaker 17: center with the rest of the starting offensive line. They 2363 01:48:42,954 --> 01:48:45,754 Speaker 17: didn't actually get into formation with all five guys, but 2364 01:48:46,154 --> 01:48:48,834 Speaker 17: they were working some combo block drills and things like that, 2365 01:48:49,034 --> 01:48:51,594 Speaker 17: so you could kind of glean that he was the 2366 01:48:51,674 --> 01:48:56,554 Speaker 17: one snapping the ball at center, so Cole Strange was 2367 01:48:56,674 --> 01:48:59,634 Speaker 17: watching behind him. And I just find that whole thing 2368 01:49:00,074 --> 01:49:02,834 Speaker 17: to be a little interesting, just because if it was 2369 01:49:02,954 --> 01:49:05,954 Speaker 17: rookie quarterback who's been playing great, and I do worry 2370 01:49:06,034 --> 01:49:09,114 Speaker 17: about switching the center on him a little bit late 2371 01:49:09,154 --> 01:49:11,514 Speaker 17: in the season, and how many snaps has he actually 2372 01:49:11,594 --> 01:49:14,794 Speaker 17: taken from Cole Strange? And does that eliminate under center 2373 01:49:14,874 --> 01:49:17,354 Speaker 17: snaps because those are definitely the harder ones, I would 2374 01:49:17,394 --> 01:49:20,994 Speaker 17: say than the shotgun snaps, And so does that eliminate 2375 01:49:21,074 --> 01:49:22,954 Speaker 17: that part of the playbook Now that you can't go 2376 01:49:23,114 --> 01:49:26,034 Speaker 17: under center because Strange and Drake may aren't ready, then 2377 01:49:26,034 --> 01:49:28,954 Speaker 17: there's a lot of communication that goes on between those 2378 01:49:28,994 --> 01:49:31,714 Speaker 17: two guys to get you know, the mic points set and. 2379 01:49:31,754 --> 01:49:33,554 Speaker 8: All that kind of stuff on the road too. 2380 01:49:33,794 --> 01:49:37,514 Speaker 17: Yeah, yeah, it's a lot of I'm always just very 2381 01:49:37,634 --> 01:49:40,834 Speaker 17: wary of changing anything on Drake, Like he's playing so 2382 01:49:41,034 --> 01:49:43,434 Speaker 17: great that I just don't want to touch anything and 2383 01:49:44,034 --> 01:49:45,754 Speaker 17: have it, you know, be a house of cards and 2384 01:49:45,914 --> 01:49:47,074 Speaker 17: it all comes crashing down. 2385 01:49:47,154 --> 01:49:48,114 Speaker 7: It's a fair point. 2386 01:49:48,594 --> 01:49:50,434 Speaker 6: It's probably the less than cold Strange needs too. 2387 01:49:50,594 --> 01:49:54,634 Speaker 5: I could definitely go on the other side, expose them 2388 01:49:54,674 --> 01:49:56,514 Speaker 5: to as many different things as you can in these 2389 01:49:56,554 --> 01:49:59,034 Speaker 5: games when there's not the pressure to win is not 2390 01:49:59,274 --> 01:50:00,074 Speaker 5: necessarily there. 2391 01:50:00,154 --> 01:50:01,634 Speaker 7: Everything's an opportunity to learn. 2392 01:50:01,794 --> 01:50:02,434 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's why. 2393 01:50:02,754 --> 01:50:02,914 Speaker 10: You know. 2394 01:50:02,994 --> 01:50:05,034 Speaker 5: One of Mike's things that he hammers home is like, 2395 01:50:05,114 --> 01:50:07,074 Speaker 5: I want to see him play Miami down in Miami. 2396 01:50:07,234 --> 01:50:09,194 Speaker 5: I want to see him go to Buffalo. I think 2397 01:50:09,234 --> 01:50:13,994 Speaker 5: there's value in that. Experiencing is many different scenarios. That's 2398 01:50:14,034 --> 01:50:15,754 Speaker 5: why I think it's great that they're probably going to 2399 01:50:15,834 --> 01:50:18,514 Speaker 5: have three bad weather games to close the year. This 2400 01:50:18,714 --> 01:50:21,154 Speaker 5: obviously won't be one of them, but when you have 2401 01:50:22,274 --> 01:50:24,634 Speaker 5: at Buffalo and then two home games to end it, 2402 01:50:24,794 --> 01:50:27,914 Speaker 5: you probably gonna have three bad weather games. It might. 2403 01:50:28,034 --> 01:50:31,674 Speaker 5: I mean, I know beer with me, he might not 2404 01:50:31,834 --> 01:50:34,794 Speaker 5: play as well in some of those games, but I 2405 01:50:35,994 --> 01:50:36,594 Speaker 5: said he might. 2406 01:50:36,834 --> 01:50:38,714 Speaker 8: He's big, kids. 2407 01:50:38,794 --> 01:50:39,514 Speaker 5: I think he's built. 2408 01:50:40,034 --> 01:50:40,194 Speaker 10: I do. 2409 01:50:40,434 --> 01:50:42,114 Speaker 5: I think he's built for the weather. I think just 2410 01:50:42,234 --> 01:50:44,434 Speaker 5: like Josh Allen in Buffalo. I think he's built for 2411 01:50:44,674 --> 01:50:47,514 Speaker 5: bad weather games. But he played in Wyoming, right, I 2412 01:50:48,034 --> 01:50:50,274 Speaker 5: get that. But now you get a chance to see 2413 01:50:50,314 --> 01:50:51,954 Speaker 5: if he can do it. What you know, what you're 2414 01:50:51,994 --> 01:50:52,314 Speaker 5: dealing with. 2415 01:50:53,034 --> 01:50:54,314 Speaker 7: No, it's not, it is not. 2416 01:50:55,874 --> 01:50:57,954 Speaker 5: Now there's one in Idaho. I think you're probably. 2417 01:50:57,714 --> 01:51:02,314 Speaker 8: Thinking, okay, Steell Travers. 2418 01:51:03,754 --> 01:51:07,874 Speaker 7: It was on the Wader we were talking about this 2419 01:51:08,194 --> 01:51:10,994 Speaker 7: Idaho Vandals with with you'ad saying, you know, I'm going 2420 01:51:11,034 --> 01:51:12,954 Speaker 7: to play the young guys. See how they're doing, See 2421 01:51:12,994 --> 01:51:15,434 Speaker 7: who's going to be here. Do you think that affects 2422 01:51:15,514 --> 01:51:18,474 Speaker 7: the way he coaches these games in terms of rotations 2423 01:51:18,674 --> 01:51:20,834 Speaker 7: and things like that. Might we see a little bit 2424 01:51:21,394 --> 01:51:24,474 Speaker 7: where the emphasis isn't on winning, it's about getting certain 2425 01:51:24,554 --> 01:51:25,154 Speaker 7: guys reps. 2426 01:51:25,314 --> 01:51:26,514 Speaker 5: I could definitely want those guys. 2427 01:51:26,554 --> 01:51:28,554 Speaker 17: I could definitely see that at the skill positions, because 2428 01:51:28,554 --> 01:51:31,794 Speaker 17: I think those are the easiest positions to rotate. I 2429 01:51:31,874 --> 01:51:33,714 Speaker 17: would assume, you know, we talked about it a little 2430 01:51:33,794 --> 01:51:36,594 Speaker 17: yesterday that Alex Austin and Isaiah Bolden will continue to 2431 01:51:36,634 --> 01:51:38,954 Speaker 17: get some run at corner over maybe you know a 2432 01:51:39,074 --> 01:51:43,314 Speaker 17: Jonathan Jones, Marcus Jones, if he's not available, we'll certainly 2433 01:51:43,834 --> 01:51:46,234 Speaker 17: make that more of a possibility. And I'd say the 2434 01:51:46,274 --> 01:51:49,434 Speaker 17: same thing at receiver, you know, with Polk assuming Baker's 2435 01:51:49,474 --> 01:51:53,234 Speaker 17: okay with Javon Baker. He did downplay doing that on 2436 01:51:53,314 --> 01:51:56,154 Speaker 17: the offensive line this morning though, and he said that 2437 01:51:56,234 --> 01:51:59,874 Speaker 17: they're you know, really harping a lot on continuity up 2438 01:51:59,954 --> 01:52:04,474 Speaker 17: front and having the same five guys and to kind 2439 01:52:04,514 --> 01:52:08,234 Speaker 17: of commit to a rotation to get you know, Robinson 2440 01:52:08,354 --> 01:52:11,874 Speaker 17: and Strange and maybe City So and all these guys opportunities. 2441 01:52:11,914 --> 01:52:14,394 Speaker 17: You know, Kayden Wallace when he comes back, he didn't 2442 01:52:14,434 --> 01:52:17,394 Speaker 17: really sound too gung ho about it being on the line. 2443 01:52:17,594 --> 01:52:20,074 Speaker 17: So my guess is it won't be the offensive line, 2444 01:52:20,154 --> 01:52:21,794 Speaker 17: but we could see that everywhere else. 2445 01:52:22,074 --> 01:52:25,834 Speaker 7: Okay, And you think would that frustrate you that, oh, 2446 01:52:26,434 --> 01:52:28,994 Speaker 7: every decision being made in these games isn't with the 2447 01:52:29,234 --> 01:52:31,114 Speaker 7: end goal of winning it? 2448 01:52:31,794 --> 01:52:35,274 Speaker 17: No, No, it doesn't frustrate me too much because I frankly, 2449 01:52:35,314 --> 01:52:37,674 Speaker 17: I don't think there's like a huge drop off in 2450 01:52:37,754 --> 01:52:40,794 Speaker 17: a lot of these positions from some of these guys 2451 01:52:40,874 --> 01:52:43,354 Speaker 17: to another guy. So I don't think anybody's suggesting that 2452 01:52:43,394 --> 01:52:46,954 Speaker 17: they're gonna bench Christian Gonzales to play Alex Austin anymore. Right, 2453 01:52:47,074 --> 01:52:50,314 Speaker 17: So it's like, I don't think that that's where it's headed. 2454 01:52:50,434 --> 01:52:54,794 Speaker 17: But the offensive line thing does interest me shocker a lot, 2455 01:52:54,954 --> 01:52:58,234 Speaker 17: because Cole Strange like probably should be a part of 2456 01:52:58,314 --> 01:52:59,194 Speaker 17: your future. 2457 01:52:58,954 --> 01:53:00,914 Speaker 8: Somewhere on the offensive line. 2458 01:53:01,514 --> 01:53:04,154 Speaker 17: But you have a lot of guards, you know, and 2459 01:53:04,234 --> 01:53:07,234 Speaker 17: you like Leyden Robinson on when he's more comfortable at guard. 2460 01:53:08,234 --> 01:53:11,234 Speaker 17: Ben Brown's probably not your starter of the future. But 2461 01:53:11,514 --> 01:53:12,834 Speaker 17: is Cole strange? 2462 01:53:12,994 --> 01:53:13,154 Speaker 7: You know? 2463 01:53:14,314 --> 01:53:15,474 Speaker 8: Center? Is he a guard? 2464 01:53:15,594 --> 01:53:15,714 Speaker 7: You know? 2465 01:53:15,754 --> 01:53:17,394 Speaker 17: Where do you play him? And how much does that 2466 01:53:17,514 --> 01:53:20,474 Speaker 17: mess with the thing they got going on now offensively 2467 01:53:20,554 --> 01:53:23,474 Speaker 17: with Drake and everything that's been happening with Ben Brown 2468 01:53:23,554 --> 01:53:25,794 Speaker 17: in the starting lineup. So I think that that's that's 2469 01:53:25,834 --> 01:53:28,834 Speaker 17: a difficult one to manage in this situation, especially because 2470 01:53:28,874 --> 01:53:31,794 Speaker 17: it's center in particular, if it was tackle or guard, 2471 01:53:31,834 --> 01:53:34,394 Speaker 17: I would be less worried about switching those guys in 2472 01:53:34,474 --> 01:53:34,794 Speaker 17: and out. 2473 01:53:35,314 --> 01:53:39,234 Speaker 7: And then finally, we have at least one writer who 2474 01:53:40,714 --> 01:53:44,154 Speaker 7: critiques you on your inconsistent use of the word toyota, 2475 01:53:44,714 --> 01:53:45,914 Speaker 7: your pronunciation of it. 2476 01:53:45,994 --> 01:53:46,834 Speaker 8: Yeah, I get this a lot. 2477 01:53:48,114 --> 01:53:50,994 Speaker 7: What's going on there?

He 2480 01:53:54,034 --> 01:53:54,754 Speaker 8: laid it all out too. 2481 01:53:54,794 --> 01:53:57,434 Speaker 6: It's like sometimes he'll say toyota, right, but then the next. 2482 01:53:57,394 --> 01:53:59,834 Speaker 5: You'll say it three times in a read and twice 2483 01:53:59,874 --> 01:54:02,194 Speaker 5: you say tyota and the other time you say toyota. 2484 01:54:04,114 --> 01:54:05,674 Speaker 8: This is not something that I care about. 2485 01:54:06,634 --> 01:54:07,514 Speaker 7: But why do you do it. 2486 01:54:08,794 --> 01:54:12,034 Speaker 5: Evidently it doesn't matter. Fred is intrigued. 2487 01:54:12,434 --> 01:54:13,514 Speaker 8: Okay, that's fair. 2488 01:54:13,714 --> 01:54:16,994 Speaker 17: And I'm sure you know, Kenny, and they're probably mad 2489 01:54:17,034 --> 01:54:19,394 Speaker 17: at me for saying it wrong in the in the reads, 2490 01:54:19,434 --> 01:54:20,954 Speaker 17: so I'll do better about that. 2491 01:54:21,554 --> 01:54:23,554 Speaker 8: What's a correct pronunciation. 2492 01:54:23,154 --> 01:54:27,634 Speaker 7: Toy yoa toy like toy story yota, toy toy, toy, toy. 2493 01:54:27,754 --> 01:54:29,194 Speaker 8: You don't say tie toyota. 2494 01:54:29,434 --> 01:54:30,874 Speaker 7: When you were a kid, you didn't get ties for 2495 01:54:31,154 --> 01:54:37,834 Speaker 7: you know what for hankah you got you got toys.
