I forget ben voland 17 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 1: most Globe breeders do. I agree Steve Sarkia when I 18 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: called it like that, even I'm not willing to take 19 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:24,679 Speaker 1: you on. Paul's my little pole.

All Right, welcome 23 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:39,320 Speaker 1: the Patriots Unfiltered. It is Thursday here at Gillette's Stadium, 24 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,479 Speaker 1: and we've got another two hours of action, pack Patriots talk. 25 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: It's deuced. It's tamara soon to be Paul, myself, Matt 26 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: in the booth, and uh, Thursday means his video day. 27 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: I guess right day here we are, Yeah, Hi everybody, Yeah, Hi, 28 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: we're on video today. Um. We have a lot to 29 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: talk about because mainly I think Mike Reese's report that 30 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: you know, barring you know, the only hurdle between Mac 31 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: playing on Monday night is how he looks in practice. 32 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: But otherwise he's good to go. I think that was 33 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:15,640 Speaker 1: the thing to point out about it, Like you've seemed 34 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: very carefully worded that Mac thinks he's going to be ready, 35 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: but we got to see how practice goes. We got 36 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: to see, you know, if he's able to clear. I mean, 37 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,959 Speaker 1: I still don't know if the medical has cleared him yet. 38 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 1: But to me, this sounds like Max saying like, I'm 39 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: gonna be ready, so whatever the coaches or the doctors 40 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 1: are all that this. This seems to me like Max 41 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:40,839 Speaker 1: saying I'm good to go. Okay, But I heard this 42 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: morning that the line has gone from like six and 43 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 1: a half to like eight because the wise guys think 44 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,839 Speaker 1: that Mack is going to play, so they like Mac. Yeah. There, 45 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: it's getting bigger. Is that? Is that? Is that what 46 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: I'm I'm too infer Yeah, I didn't see. I just 47 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: saw seven and a half all week, Yeah, every day 48 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: right now it's nine now, so it's still rising. Yeah. 49 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,519 Speaker 1: I also think it's interesting, in addition to the ESPN 50 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: report by Mike Greece that also the athletic is reporting 51 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: from their sources that there is no quarterback controversy and 52 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 1: that it's Max's job when he's ready to play. I 53 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: make sense to me. Yeah, you know, I won't Bill 54 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 1: just say it, though. I think there's some motivational on. So, 55 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: just out of curiosity, how do you think the athletic 56 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 1: can make a report like that? Um, I don't know 57 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 1: if Jeff, Yeah, he probably talked to some right, I 58 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: don't know. Do you think you talked to Bill not Bill? Yeah? 59 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: I agree. Yeah, not Bill before I ignore that because 60 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: I don't think you talked to Bill. Yeah, I doubt, 61 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: because he's the only one that can tell you if 62 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: there's any choice, right. Yeah. Do you think he told 63 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: Mike about Mac or do you think that was Mac 64 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: talking to Mike? Oh? Max condition is probably from Mac. Yeah, 65 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,839 Speaker 1: that could be Max agent camp as camp that those 66 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: have been pretty consistent for three weeks now. He's I mean, 67 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 1: he's doing everything you can to get back else there champing, chomping, 68 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: it's a bit Yeah. Did you guys already go with 69 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: champing chomping? No? No, No, that's a good friend. I dipped, 70 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 1: I dipped a toe into it. I know it's a running, 71 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 1: a running. You're gonna smile and laugh at me now 72 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,039 Speaker 1: after you blew me off. Thanks, Sorry, we forgot I 73 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 1: was talking to Tamara. We walked by Paul's office. We 74 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 1: forgot to pick him up today. So I'm sitting there 75 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: just talking to Matt, and all of a sudden, I 76 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 1: hear my phone. Let's Jesus twelve O one.

Ask me practice 79 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 1: I'm asking you four pounds, right, Um, what we really 80 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: are you going to see him go out there? And 81 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 1: what you see him like limping a little bit? Say 82 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 1: though every time, I don't think that was dumb. I 83 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 1: agree with her. Yeah, I will say every time we've 84 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: gone to practice, he's moved a little bit more. Yeah, 85 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: Like I know today when we go out there, he 86 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 1: is going to move a little bit more. Right, Um, 87 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 1: if he can run play, but if he can't, Yeah, no, 88 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: I mean and based on the VI Mike, Yeah, no, seriously, 89 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,840 Speaker 1: based on the videos because I know your answer and 90 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: don't lie to me. Do you think he was gonna 91 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 1: play last week? No? I know you didn't. So I 92 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: just walked, like arriving at the stadium, walking up the sideline, 93 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, yeah, I think, Um, practice starts in 94 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: thirty minutes, so I think after that, yeah yeah, and 95 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 1: we'll get a full report from Evan when he comes back. Yeah, 96 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: he'll be in let's see, Uh they put mac on 97 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 1: display or if they they hide him more. I think 98 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: he's gonna play, But I'm basing that on absolutely nothing. Right, Yeah, 99 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: me too, Just I mean more that, I mean, I 100 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: think he how long has it been say, you know 101 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: about what they said, right, Yeah, I'll see. Like the 102 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 1: first practice we saw him like it was like upper 103 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: body movement only nothing else. Oh yeah, and then next 104 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 1: week it was like small steps, and the next week 105 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 1: it was like, okay, a little bit of hit movement, 106 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: like move dropping back, Yeah, a little bit. Um. So 107 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: I'm today, Yeah, he's just like what I'm with you 108 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,720 Speaker 1: day by day. But I'm with you.

He's 111 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 1: got to protect him something, right, otherwise he's a sitting duck. 112 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 1: Yeah right, I agree. You know, like if I'm the Bears, 113 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: I'm like, have you gotten any random texts from anybody 114 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: that told you so you could just go with that? 115 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 1: I haven't gotten any dms?

Yeah? 119 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: My little pole? Oh I don't think we need to 120 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 1: do that. Yeah, I got it. It's actually been funny. 121 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 1: People were tweeting at us like I've got my vote 122 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,479 Speaker 1: in for Paul's pole. I was like, all right, I 123 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: mean if some I talked about up my little pole 124 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,359 Speaker 1: yesterday on Foul Green Masks, well, I know, and yeah, 125 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: but if if they want to, if people want to 126 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,359 Speaker 1: add to that, that's fine. I love the pole, you know. 127 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 1: And I also I espouse my emailer versus caller theory 128 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 1: and jumped right in. Interesting, what was it? He goes, Oh, 129 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: he goes, the writers are most sereble like, oh, exactly. Well. 130 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: I was talking to No Socks this morning and he 131 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: said he was listening to Paul's show yesterday, and you 132 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: know that show it's all zappy interesting, and this show 133 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 1: it's you know, the callers. The callers are all zappy. Yeah, absolutely, 134 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 1: that's that's that's after Birds of a Feather. You know 135 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: a lot of people are attracted to that show because 136 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: of the negativity. They like it. It's fun, you know. 137 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: They they're you know, I'm not saying everybody I listened 138 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: to people are like excited about Zappy. Doesn't it wasn't negative? 139 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: Oh I know, no, but they're they're negative against Mac. 140 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: They are you know, yeah, but I think they're really 141 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: excited about Zach. I mean I think that next year 142 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: at this time they could be excited about some other guy. 143 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 1: Like I just think they liked the new thing. Well, yeah, 144 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: but I don't think it's a negative. I didn't. I 145 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: didn't really see much negativity yesterday. I saw like a 146 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 1: lot of excitement about like this guy can do things. 147 00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: It's just you can just see it. He's got it, 148 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: you know, like that kind of stuff. Do you think though, 149 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: that people of those ilk see this as an opportunity 150 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: to start to drive a wedge between Mac and Belichick 151 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: and the Patriots and the fans? Oh? You know sure? 152 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: Like you think people in the media want to drive 153 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 1: a wedge between what would they care? The callers, the 154 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 1: ones that hate Belichick? Why would you care? Because drama, 155 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: drama moose the needle, right, Like I think it's you know, yeah, 156 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: more stories to go. But but if you're not gonna 157 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: get any more drama, then Bailey's appy taking the quarterback 158 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: job away from Mac Jones. If you want drama, oh yeah, 159 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: you want needle moving, that's it. But this ain't going away. 160 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: There's a reason why the Patriots game last week was 161 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: the highest rated game they've had this year. That's it 162 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 1: on a clock, that's it. Yeah. But I feel like 163 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 1: going forward, all these things that we've heard are going 164 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: to be fact now, and it's gonna be well, you know, 165 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: Patriots and like how Mac handled that, and and that's lingered, 166 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 1: you know, even though we're here in December and Mac 167 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 1: had a two interception game? So is it time to 168 00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: go back to Bailey's Appy? You know? I think so 169 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: that's what we're gonna So if do you think if 170 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 1: Mac goes out and throws with three hundred and nine 171 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: yards and three touchdowns, are you gonna hear that? Nope? 172 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: Not after that game? So do you think if he 173 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 1: doesn't play well that it's like unfair that he hears that? No? 174 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: But I think people are gonna be all too willing 175 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 1: to jump onto it. I mean I think there could 176 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 1: It would take one game to be like all right, 177 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 1: should they go back to Zappy now? Like, I don't 178 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,199 Speaker 1: think anybody thinks that Max. So that's what I'm asking. 179 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 1: Is that unfair? Uh? Maybe a little bit, Maybe a 180 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: little bit. I don't think if Matt goes out and 181 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: plays poorly, it's not unfair. It's it's like it's not unfair. 182 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: I guess that's the question. That's that's my point. Has 183 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: he earned any benefit of the doubt? Like if he 184 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: because he's probably gonna have a bad game. So do 185 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:42,839 Speaker 1: you think if he has If he doesn't, why why 186 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: do you say that? Why would he probably have a 187 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:49,439 Speaker 1: bad game? You don't think Max gonna have a bad games? Yeah? 188 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: That's that was edgy. Like I'm talking about the Bears. 189 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 1: I don't say you had to play a great game 190 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: every single game he plays. No, I mean, I'm just 191 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 1: saying going forward, like this isn't going away, like this 192 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 1: is bailey zapp. He's gonna hang over Max if Mac. 193 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 1: If Mac Jones plays well for say like the next 194 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 1: three four or five games and has a bad game, 195 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: people aren't going to be calling for Bailey's app. I 196 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: hope you're right. Some might you people don't take my No. 197 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: One for like zero Paul. If he comes out and 198 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: he plays rusty against the Bears, it's like you're gonna 199 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: get Bailey's appy. Yeah yeah, but but it's like people 200 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 1: might hear say bailey' zappy, give him, give him back 201 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: the opportunity, or you could be like okay, like first 202 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: game back Rusty, but then if he comes out against 203 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 1: the Jets and does the same thing, then it's like, okay, 204 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: people are gonna be definitely. But if he plays okay 205 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 1: against the Bears and then plays even better against the Jets, 206 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 1: and then he plays okay against the Colts and then 207 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:41,439 Speaker 1: all of a sudden he has a bad game, people 208 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 1: aren't going to be There's not gonna be a human 209 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: cry get him out of there. He stinks. But if 210 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 1: he has a bad game right away in contrast to 211 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 1: the good games that Zappi has had, yeah he's gonna 212 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: hear something he should. Yeah, I just I guess I want. 213 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: Where I'm at right now is how much good faith 214 00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: has Mac earned at this point? Like you know, I mean, 215 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: I think any NFL quarterback going forward, there's going to 216 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: be a bad game in there. Probably that doesn't mean 217 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 1: that you're going to call for the starter's head because 218 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,839 Speaker 1: he had one bad game. But I think going forward, 219 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: this is this is now a thing like people will 220 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:16,839 Speaker 1: people will let me ask you this. If Dak Prescott 221 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:19,679 Speaker 1: plays a couple of really bad games, you don't think 222 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: people and Dallas are gonna be talking about Cooper Rush. 223 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: Oh sure, yeah, why would I how much more latitude 224 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,319 Speaker 1: should Dak Prescott I earned at this stage than Mac 225 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: Jones more so, that's like it's par for the course. 226 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 1: When the starter misses time and the guy who replaces 227 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 1: him comes in and plays well, and the starter returns 228 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: and doesn't play well, that's not unfair. No, And I'm 229 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 1: not trying to make the point that like Mac should 230 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: not get criticism if he doesn't play bad. I just 231 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: think that, knowing how this town works with sports radio, 232 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: the Bailey's appy thing, it's right in the back pocket now, 233 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: and it's they're ready to go whenever, and whether or 234 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: not Mac like plays great against great defenses or you know, 235 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:02,719 Speaker 1: whatever the context is. Any shakingness, I'll say something. I'll 236 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: repeat something I said I think last year about this show. 237 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:10,959 Speaker 1: It's very important for us to look at this fairly 238 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: and talk about it fairly, because this isn't with Tom Brady, 239 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: where you know, you knew what was going to happen. 240 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 1: I think fans really need objective criticism or praise, and 241 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 1: fair objective criticism, you know, fair praise or criticism. You know, 242 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 1: it's it's really on us to do that. It's it's 243 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 1: we shouldn't be taking sides here. You know, um, we 244 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 1: should call it like we see it. Well, It's like 245 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: we were talking yesterday a little bit and this was 246 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 1: like during a break and Tony was like looking at 247 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: Max like last stretch of games when he hasn't like 248 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, he's got you know, seven touchdowns and 249 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: I mean seven interceptions in his last like whatever many games. 250 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,839 Speaker 1: And I go, Tony, he's played twenty one games in 251 00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: a career when he's thrown twenty interceptions. I said, don't, like, 252 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 1: you don't need like a starting off point. You don't 253 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 1: need to eliminate the good games and only focus on 254 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: the bad games. Just use all of the games. He's 255 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: played twenty one games, he's eleven and ten and has 256 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 1: twenty interceptions. That's not like clouding it to your point, Fred, like, 257 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: that's just kind of using the facts, you know, as 258 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 1: a basic And he was like stunned. He's like, I 259 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: had no idea he threw that many. I said, because 260 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 1: we spent the whole year convincing everybody how wrong anybody 261 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 1: was to question anything Mac Jones did. Now on this show, 262 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: I think we looked at the good in the bad. 263 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 1: Mike and I had Mac Jones on our good list 264 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 1: after a lot of games. We had him on the 265 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: bad list after some games too. We cut some heat 266 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 1: on some of those games because he's a rookie, you know. 267 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: But that's what it is, like. You have to the 268 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: way you just describe that, Fred, I think is exactly 269 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,319 Speaker 1: what you have to do. You can't just ignore when 270 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: something doesn't go right. And you also can't just ignore 271 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 1: when Bailey Zappy played well. Sure, you can't just dismiss 272 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: that and say it was easy. It was against a 273 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 1: bad team, Yeah it was, and most of the good 274 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 1: games that Mac had last year were against similarly bad teams. 275 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: We have to look at the best interests of the 276 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 1: team now. But I'm serious, we you know. It's I 277 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 1: think like we need to be like that safe place 278 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: where you can get honest opinions and not agenda filled opinions. 279 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 1: You know. Yeah, well, I think this connects back to 280 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: what your kind of philosophy was last season, where remember 281 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: you were saying, we really need to analyze Mac and 282 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 1: be fair and really break down what he's doing well 283 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: and what he isn't. And I think that's the same 284 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: the same point you have to continue, you know, to 285 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 1: be fair. I just I guess right now, where I'm 286 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: wondering as like, is there a level that Matt can 287 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 1: hit where people just say, ah, right, he's he's the 288 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 1: guy's appy, he did well. Felger thinks that Mac Jones 289 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: is better than Bailey Zappy. He thinks his skill set 290 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: is better. He thinks it's not like a blowout, but 291 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: he thinks it's better, whereas Pony and Jim Murray are like, 292 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know. I think Zappy has played 293 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: better than what I saw Mac play, So like there's 294 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: a difference of opinion there and where I will agree 295 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: with you a little bit with the the talk radio nonsense, 296 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: which I call it nonsense, but you guys know, I 297 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: love it. I love for conflict. I love That's where 298 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 1: I'm searching out the okay, the point of conflict. But 299 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: I enjoy I enjoy the debate. I enjoy the snark. 300 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 1: It's not to be taken literally, like that's why what 301 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: Bolan did in all seriousness is wrong. Like you can't 302 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: just make stuff up, so that's what makes it, you know, 303 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 1: that's what makes it bad or just repeat whatever you hear, 304 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 1: you know, you know, yeah, um, But where I think, 305 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 1: like if you ask a lot of talk radio guys, 306 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 1: they'll say what's best for the show. They want to happen. 307 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 1: It's not like they want to drive. It's like, so, 308 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 1: it's not necessarily we're going to drive a wedge between 309 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 1: Mac and Zappy. But the better thing for this show 310 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: would be if Zappy takes this job from Mac, because 311 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 1: it's way more drama, it's way more needle moving. To 312 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: use you a phrase like so like do you root 313 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 1: for that? Yeah? I think I think that if like 314 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 1: you're Mike and Tony, you're probably rooting for something that 315 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: that will generate the most attention to this show. What 316 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 1: they should be rooting for is the Patriots to win 317 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 1: every game. And that's who, I will tell you, with 318 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: absolute uncertain like absolute locke, Mike Felgo roots him to 319 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 1: win every game because he is so concerned if the 320 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 1: teams do not have success that people will stop listening. 321 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: He should, I'm telling you, that's all that's it's ever 322 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: on his mind. People would be stunted to hear that 323 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: how much he wants the teams to win. I mean it, 324 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 1: he's smart. You know, in this town, we don't have 325 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 1: the patience for mediocrity. You know, or you know, worse 326 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 1: than that, losing losing teams. Look at the ratings for 327 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 1: the Red Sox, you know, and you could say, well, baseball, No, 328 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: Boston's still a baseball town. Red Sox have been sort 329 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 1: of the rating stunt. Last year they went to the end, 330 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 1: they well they weren't that bad as this year. Well 331 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: not as bad this year, but they were bad. Yeah, 332 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: you know, but overall, like in terms of baseball, we 333 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 1: do pretty good. In terms of attendance at Fenway Park, 334 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: we do pretty good compared to the other We're still, 335 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: you know, not a football's number one, but we're still 336 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 1: a good baseball town. But there no one's no one's 337 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 1: you know, immune to uh fans disinterest. Yeah, so back 338 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: to the fair conversation. I also think too, like when 339 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:31,120 Speaker 1: you're looking at the offense that Mac was was asked 340 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 1: to play with, you know a lot of deep balls 341 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: down the field. Bailey Zappy wasn't doing that. And so 342 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 1: I think too of playing fair and like comparing like 343 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 1: how Mac played started the season and with how bailey' 344 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:42,919 Speaker 1: z appy played, you know, in the games that he 345 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 1: was out there too, I think you also still have 346 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 1: to look at that not just the opponent, but the 347 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:50,239 Speaker 1: offense that was installed per quarterback absolutely, Evan did. Like 348 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,199 Speaker 1: I said, Evan did a piece earlier this week, you know, 349 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: showing the numbers of the differences in the offenses. That's 350 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: why it's going to be really important for us to 351 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 1: watch the game Monday night and make that evaluation. What 352 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,400 Speaker 1: kind of offense are they running? Are they doing what 353 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 1: Zappy did? Yeah? And then if it and if they 354 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: are in Max's not doing well, then it's fair to say, well, 355 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:13,120 Speaker 1: Zappy did it better. Yeah. And someone actually asked Bill 356 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,959 Speaker 1: that yesterday, saying like, do you have to draft up 357 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: two different game plans depending on who starts? Do you 358 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 1: have to tweak one for Billy Zappy versus for Mac Jones? 359 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 1: And of course that question really wasn't answered, but it 360 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 1: makes you wonder like, are they gonna if Matt starts 361 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 1: on Monday night, are they going to go back to 362 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 1: what they were installed with him before or are they 363 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:33,679 Speaker 1: going to do a hybrid of a mix of that, 364 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 1: a mix of Zappy or are they gonna give him 365 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 1: what Zappy was doing? Yeah? I thought in Mike's roundtable 366 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 1: questions that he sent email to us today, I thought 367 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 1: he had a really good one. It's like, how are 368 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:47,200 Speaker 1: your expectations, How are your expectations different if Mac plays 369 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: for a Sappy. Yeah, I think that was a good 370 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 1: question because mine aren't different. Yeah, I have to admit 371 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 1: my bar for Mac is higher. I expect him to 372 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:59,200 Speaker 1: be a playmaker. That's good then, because we have different answers. Yeah, 373 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 1: it's the same. Yeah, expect I expect Mac to to 374 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 1: in and of himself to make plays, where I expect 375 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 1: Zappy to just play within the guardrails not make mistakes. 376 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: You know, so you want Zappy to still have his 377 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: training wheels on. Um, Well, as we get further along, 378 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,160 Speaker 1: I think we take them all. But yes, right now, yes, 379 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 1: I think so. I wrote two different things for both 380 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 1: of them too. For Mac, I don't want him to 381 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: come in and think that he has to play hero 382 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: Ball and just like completely show why he's so much better, 383 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 1: because if he does that, he's going to make a 384 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: ton of mistakes. So I want him to come back 385 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 1: and have a good game, but not be the focus 386 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: of like, let me go out here and show them 387 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 1: why I'm this far ahead than Bailey Zappy. I don't 388 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 1: want that. Yeah, I think it's a great point to Marry, 389 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 1: and I like, and I'm the place I'm at. I'm 390 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: in a similar place to Paul. I don't think it's 391 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:48,879 Speaker 1: all that different. I mean, I just think for Zappy, 392 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: it's don't screw things up to what you've been doing. 393 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: This is a team that we should beat. And the 394 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: same thing with Mac, like you've been hurt, don't try 395 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,360 Speaker 1: to do too much just yet and run the ball, 396 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 1: try it over. But let's look at this from the 397 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 1: Bears perspective. Okay, if you're you know, figuring out what 398 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 1: to do against the Patron's offense going into this game, 399 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,640 Speaker 1: you know, I would be like, they ain't doing that 400 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 1: fundamental stuff with us, you know, if they you know, 401 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 1: and maybe they won't be successful, but you know, like 402 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:19,120 Speaker 1: the testosterone. If they try that, you know, football one 403 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: on one stuff against us, we're gonna I don't do it. 404 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: Do you think they ran football one on one stuff 405 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 1: against Cleveland? I don't think it was as complex as 406 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 1: what Mac was doing. No. I felt like I feel 407 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,159 Speaker 1: like they did more than they did with Zappy in 408 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,440 Speaker 1: the Lions game. Me too, Yeah, by a lot. I 409 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 1: A yeah, you know, it's a funny thing that I'm 410 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,400 Speaker 1: noticing some of the conversations I have with people who 411 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,439 Speaker 1: you know, are just general fans, are you know, saying that, 412 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: like it just felt like a Patriots offense to me, 413 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 1: Like I can't remember like saying this about the Cleveland game, 414 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 1: and I feel so tied up in it. I can't 415 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,480 Speaker 1: really say for sure how if I agree with that 416 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,120 Speaker 1: or not. But I don't know. This is something interesting, 417 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 1: Like I think a lot of people that watch Zappy 418 00:20:56,920 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: just felt like a feeling of familiarity around the Patriots 419 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 1: off for whatever reason. I'm not sure exactly why. Maybe 420 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 1: it was just the you know, some of the continued 421 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: execution stuff. But I think it's an interesting point. Does 422 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:10,119 Speaker 1: Matt come out try to prove a point? Is he 423 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 1: pushing the ball down the field and you have to 424 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: worry about that, you know? I think that's that's what 425 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 1: point a great point. Don't over don't overthink and what 426 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 1: you're telling about mac of oh, he's been ready to play, 427 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 1: he's ready to play, he's champing at the bit, you know, 428 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,439 Speaker 1: all that stuff like, but that that's the that's the 429 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,159 Speaker 1: mark of somebody who might come in and be like, 430 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 1: regardless of who the Patriot quarterback is, if I expect 431 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,160 Speaker 1: the Bears to throw the kitchen sync at him, whoever 432 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,159 Speaker 1: the quarterback is, and whoever the quarterback is is going 433 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 1: to have to figure that out. Yeah. You know, one 434 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:41,679 Speaker 1: more thing too, I thought, Paul was remember remember when 435 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 1: we got into mini camp and they were just like wow, 436 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 1: there really throwing the ball down the field the trade 437 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:47,920 Speaker 1: Nixon a lot. And I remember you being like that 438 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 1: seemed like they're kind of doing this on purpose to 439 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,199 Speaker 1: be like, see we can do this, And like I 440 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 1: wonder if that's a kid like, don't make it a 441 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 1: continuation against the Bears this weekend of like oh you guys, 442 00:21:58,160 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 1: Bailey Zappy was good. Way do you see these ball 443 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 1: start dropping and just starting you know, chucking them down today? 444 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 1: And I didn't take you like when you asked the question. 445 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,439 Speaker 1: I didn't take it like how do I expect the 446 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 1: two quarterbacks to play? Like how how well they play? Yeah? No, no, 447 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:13,439 Speaker 1: just what I took it as like what would the 448 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,919 Speaker 1: game plan be? And I took it as like like 449 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: a continuation of what they've been doing. You know, they're 450 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 1: gonna run the ball, They're gonna you know, take the 451 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,880 Speaker 1: shots with play action, protect the ball, get the lead. 452 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 1: That's the formula for But but here's the thing. I like, 453 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: I said, my bar from Mac is higher. He was 454 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:32,719 Speaker 1: a first round draft pick. I don't care if he 455 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 1: was the fifth quarterback. Take it should be higher. It 456 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: should for a full year longer. I expect more out 457 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: of him than I do Zappy at this point. Yeah, 458 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: but I'm not necessarily. I don't think that question was 459 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: like who do you think we'll play better run Sunday? 460 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:49,959 Speaker 1: It's like what do you expected? What do expectations? Yeah? Yeah, 461 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,560 Speaker 1: I like that. I want, if it's Bailey Zappy, them 462 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 1: to continue to add on what they did against the Browns, 463 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: Like I felt like they were opening up the playbook 464 00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 1: a little bit more, doing more with the offense with 465 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 1: him than they did in the Lions game obviously, So 466 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 1: if it's him, I want more of that. So like, 467 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,679 Speaker 1: in other words, if the game plan was exactly the 468 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 1: same against Cleveland as it was and Mac played to 469 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 1: you a point, Fred, you'd expect to have done better 470 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,920 Speaker 1: than Oh yeah, yes, yeah absolutely, But that's that's fine. 471 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 1: I didn't. I mean, I'm not telling you like that 472 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:18,439 Speaker 1: you took the question wrong. I'm just telling you I 473 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 1: took it different yeah. I took it as how would 474 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 1: I go about playing based on yeah, the quarterbacks, and 475 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:26,200 Speaker 1: I don't think anything will change. I took it a 476 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:30,719 Speaker 1: little differently. Yeah, all right, well you know that's as 477 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 1: many that's what makes it good, as different as many 478 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 1: as many plays as Zappy made, I would expect Mac 479 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,120 Speaker 1: to make more plays. Yes, I think that's I think 480 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 1: that's fair. Yeah. Maybe Mac gets in has a quiet start. 481 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 1: I mean quiet in a good way, not like he 482 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:47,640 Speaker 1: doesn't do much, but just takes what's there, doesn't pick 483 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 1: on like the first series. I oh like right too, 484 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 1: And in that respect it's a good thing. This is 485 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 1: in a way game Oh yeah, you know, because they 486 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: would they would, yeah, start they would here, they would. 487 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 1: They did it with Brady, They'll do it with Matt. Wait, wait, 488 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:11,919 Speaker 1: what isn't the game here? You know what? This is 489 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:16,439 Speaker 1: gonna be a top That's why I like the whole, 490 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: I think, and I know most people go the other way. 491 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 1: They like you know, the Chicago games are soft landing. 492 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 1: We talked about the yesterday. Yeah, Chicago's you know, they're 493 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 1: not they're not very good. You get him out there, 494 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: you get to win under his belt, and then you 495 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 1: go to the Jets, who may or may not be better. 496 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 1: I'm still very skeptical you guys on board, um, and 497 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 1: I'm like, I think if I was like just Joe 498 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 1: mac Jones fan, like I'm ra Ra, I kind of 499 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: would like him just to come back on the road. 500 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,719 Speaker 1: That's yeah, because I think this is the inherent pressure 501 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 1: of if something goes wrong, you got to hear it 502 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:52,160 Speaker 1: from your own fans, and they will. If he goes 503 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 1: out and throws a pick on the first drive, I 504 00:24:56,680 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 1: don't anticipate that happening now, Justin Fields doing that, that's 505 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 1: very possible. Yeah, that's very possible. Well, I'll just be 506 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 1: happy to see Justin Field's allowed to drop back and 507 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 1: throw it like so I just I just launched the 508 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:11,679 Speaker 1: ball with my arms and someone will catch it. You know. 509 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go against something I've said before, Like I've 510 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 1: always said, like when it comes to Patriots, I want 511 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,199 Speaker 1: them to blow out every opponent, you know, and it 512 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: would be nice if they got an early lead. You're 513 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 1: gonna get what you wish. Yeah, this week, it'd be 514 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 1: nice if they can get early lead. And it's not 515 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 1: even a game where Mac has to win it, right, 516 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: you know, maybe measure he tosses one late. But there's 517 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 1: a part of me, there's a part of me in 518 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:36,400 Speaker 1: this game. I'd like Mac to have to do something 519 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:40,359 Speaker 1: to just interesting, to just show that he can. That's 520 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 1: back to the Mac. The main Mac narrative. I feel 521 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 1: of of, Okay, we know you're pretty good against the 522 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:48,439 Speaker 1: teams that are maybe overmatched or equal, but yeah, something 523 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,880 Speaker 1: something outside the box. I don't this week. Just let's 524 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: see like the Bears getting like Khalil Herbert has like 525 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,119 Speaker 1: a fifty yard run on the first series and it 526 00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:58,920 Speaker 1: sets up a field goal. They're down three nothing, and 527 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 1: then Patriots win, like, you know, thirty eight to three. 528 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 1: I thought he couldn't play it from behind, you know, 529 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,919 Speaker 1: like one of those deals. I think you're more likely 530 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 1: to get one of those scenarios red maybe against the 531 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:14,159 Speaker 1: Jets or like, okay, maybe Zach Wilson has the Jets 532 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: up five interceptions like last time, ye say they're up 533 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 1: twenty one fourteen and to complete five passes. Though, say 534 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:24,440 Speaker 1: the Jets are up twenty one fourteen and the fourth 535 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,159 Speaker 1: and then Mac Jones has to go out and I 536 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,439 Speaker 1: love it. I love twice. Yeah, I would love it. 537 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 1: I mean I said, I would love him to succeed 538 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:33,199 Speaker 1: in that. I don't think you would love it as 539 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 1: it was happening, and oh yeah, I'd be going crazy, 540 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 1: but just to get it out of the way, you know, 541 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 1: to get it out of the way. Some comeback wins. 542 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:44,639 Speaker 1: But I mean, if you're gonna get a comeback win, 543 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: you gotta be down right, you have to have to 544 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: stare that downa We always got that, whereas got Houston 545 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 1: for the Chargers game. Wasn't that like down to the wire? Ish? Yeah? 546 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,880 Speaker 1: They were losing in the fourth quarter of that game, 547 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 1: and then Herbert threw the pick yeah, which you know 548 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 1: that was a pick six that So let's say the Patriots, dude, 549 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 1: just plaster the Bears. Will Paul's people be saying, oh, 550 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 1: that's not fair. You know, Mac didn't even have to play. 551 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 1: I still think better you will you will hear something, Yeah, 552 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 1: you absolutely will. Yeah, I think you will hear some 553 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:22,400 Speaker 1: of that just because of statistically how bad the Bears are. 554 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 1: Unless you are, you know, on Bill's side and have 555 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 1: a thousand great things to say about the Bears, then right, 556 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,919 Speaker 1: you might have a different perspective afterwards. So it's funny 557 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 1: you talked about that the opening Diet Tribe about the Bears. Um, Andy, Well, 558 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 1: I'm going to do the podcast with Andy, the Six 559 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 1: Rings podcast for him after our show, and he told 560 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:48,640 Speaker 1: me they had a Chicago guy on half the guys 561 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: that Bill was talking about. The guy didn't even wasn't 562 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 1: even really like like I'm not even really aware of him, 563 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:55,919 Speaker 1: Like he's like some of the guys, like the special 564 00:27:55,960 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: Team guy, the guy from Chicago who covers Bears, like 565 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 1: he's not really on the radar. It left me scrambling 566 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 1: because I was writing the tend to Watch thing and 567 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: I kind of had had finished it up, and then 568 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 1: I heard Bill's thing, and I was like, special teams, 569 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 1: I know what. You know how you always like to 570 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,159 Speaker 1: read into things Fred when Bill talks and it's like 571 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,399 Speaker 1: he never said that, Dan Campbell, you know that you 572 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 1: never said Detroit's well coached, right, So you know that 573 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 1: the longer he goes with a bad team like that, 574 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 1: the more confident you should be that you're going to 575 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 1: get an absolute ass kicking. This is how we talked 576 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,639 Speaker 1: about the old for Cleveland Browns being explosive with the 577 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 1: ability to score from anywhere on the field, like he 578 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: went on for days and days about how productive their 579 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 1: offense is and they're like the lowest scoring offense in football. 580 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 1: Like when he does that, you know that he's looking 581 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: at that and it's like, oh, man, I just gotta 582 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 1: come out and just throw stuff out there because this 583 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 1: team can't do anything. Yeah, well, oh it's gonna be 584 00:28:57,080 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 1: interesting Monday night. Pat, it's bears. I said, this is 585 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: my my like the last uninteresting game to me, not 586 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 1: that any game is uninteresting interesting, he says, But but 587 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 1: you're right. I mean for that, but as far as 588 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 1: like the interest, this is the last opponent that there's 589 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 1: really nothing for me to glump. I know the Jets 590 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 1: are the Jets, but the Jets are a divisional rival, 591 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 1: and I think that that's a really big game. Um, 592 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: but otherwise I don't care who they're playing. It's our 593 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 1: quarterback situation makes it interesting. That's the that'll that'll carry us. 594 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 1: That's That's what I'm talking about. So you've fallen into it. 595 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 1: You're going to be completely reactionary based on one game. 596 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: You're you're the guy that Mike has made. I'm gonna 597 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 1: go into it really nervous because I want Mac to 598 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 1: play well. Yeah, oh, I know, you know w well, 599 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 1: like I, I don't have a dog in the fire. 600 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 1: He doesn't. I think the other guy's playing great, so 601 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:48,959 Speaker 1: I like, I know, and that's and that's really it 602 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: doesn't matter to me at all if Bailey's Appy ends 603 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:52,960 Speaker 1: up being the guy or Mac Jones ends up being 604 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 1: the guy. And that's like like saying, like Drew and 605 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: Brady for me, like I had, like I liked Drew, 606 00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 1: I like I had a stake in that one. It's 607 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 1: not like I'm like this big Mac guy. It's just 608 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 1: like I want our first round pick to be our quarterback. 609 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: I don't want to have wasted that pick. But if 610 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 1: if Bailey Zappi is better, what do you care? What 611 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 1: do you think his ceiling is. I don't think it's 612 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 1: much different than Max. I really don't. So you don't 613 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: think that that's fine? So you don't care. But I'm 614 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 1: just saying, forget about what you think of a person. 615 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: What difference does it make if this guy ends up 616 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 1: being better? I hear him on just the draft pick thing. 617 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:28,560 Speaker 1: I mean, that's you know that, that's a little bit 618 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 1: of frustration, But I'm with you. Otherwise, I get it. 619 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 1: I get it. But but isn't the goal to make 620 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 1: sure you have a really good quarterback? Right? So whichever 621 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: guy is really good, what difference is it? Well that's 622 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: the key. Yeah. No, I'm not saying that one guy 623 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 1: stakes and the other guy stinks worse. I'm saying one 624 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 1: of them is really good. But well, that's right. If 625 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 1: Zappy ends up being like really good, I'd be like, wow, 626 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: they found another diamond. That's great. If you're asking me 627 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 1: my opinion, I agree with you, right. I don't think 628 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: that he's as good as Mac Jones, you know. So 629 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 1: it's just you know, I never expect it's you know, 630 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: we don't realize. But this is NFL reality, you know, 631 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 1: like most teams don't just go from one great quarterback 632 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: to another. Most teams go through this kind of purgatory 633 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 1: where they're looking for that. And I want to you know, 634 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 1: and make that window smaller. Yeah, I was gonna say, 635 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 1: where in the purgatory where they right now? Yeah? I mean, 636 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 1: can you remember a time like this in another NFL 637 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: team where there was you know, certainly an incumbent starter 638 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: who is good, but maybe you know, hasn't quite proven 639 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 1: that he is an elite quarterback and then you have 640 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 1: another guy kind of nipping at his heels a little bit, 641 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 1: who you know, up taking it. And then it's because 642 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:39,360 Speaker 1: of injury and stuff. But like what like with Washington happened, 643 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 1: what happened with Robert Griffin and Kirk Cousins. You know, 644 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 1: it was mostly because of Mike Shanahan ripped up Robert 645 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 1: Griffin's knee right he played in the game. He had 646 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 1: absolutely no business playing, and it ended up doing irreparable damage. 647 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 1: It was never the same. But they've drafted both of 648 00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 1: those guys. One was in the first round and one 649 00:31:55,840 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 1: was in the fourth, fourth round, just like this, but 650 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 1: now same year. But Argie Three's first year, he was 651 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 1: it was great, he was great, and he got hurt. 652 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 1: He got and he got hurt in the playoff and 653 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 1: they rushed him back. Yeah, and then they played on 654 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 1: that that terrible field, and they got a lot of 655 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 1: criticism for rushing him back. Like Fred said, he was 656 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 1: better his rookie. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I just don't remember. Yeah, 657 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: I remember getting hurt, but that exact scenario you're talking about, 658 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 1: I can't remember of where you had an incumbent, you know, 659 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: and then you got on the second guy Yeah, that's 660 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 1: kind of there. No, it's just it's usually when it 661 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 1: happens you have two guys that aren't all that good, 662 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 1: you know, like Steve Grogan and Matt Kavanaugh, you know 663 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 1: kind of thing. Yeah, you know, it's it's just and 664 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 1: I only use that because that's home, that's Patriots. I 665 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 1: think that's where like my original like thing about the 666 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: radio and all that was just coming from a place 667 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: of is Mac ever gonna have Bailey z Appy off 668 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 1: his shoulders? Like, because I think you know where we 669 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 1: kind of come out is that. I mean, Mac good, 670 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 1: but I think he needs to something we haven't seen 671 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: yet to hit that next level. The problem with Mac 672 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 1: is this happened too early in his career. Yeah, you know, 673 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 1: if he had been an established starter for four or 674 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 1: five years here and then he gets hurt and the 675 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 1: guy comes in and it's great, Okay, he kept he 676 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 1: kept the seat warm. Yes, yeah, right, it happened too 677 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 1: earlier in his career. Sumping a little bit out of 678 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 1: the gate. Yeah, no one will be talking about that. 679 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 1: Fred's absolutely right. If he was the starter for three 680 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 1: years and then got hurt and missed a few games, 681 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 1: you'd be like, you know, thank you for your service, Bailey, 682 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 1: you know now, I mean, I mean, do you think 683 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 1: at any point it would be impetus to trade Bailey's 684 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 1: appy if you know, let's say Matt comes back. He's fine, 685 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:40,320 Speaker 1: he's the starter. He doesn't, you know, play great or terrible. 686 00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 1: He's just kind of maybe a little bit better than 687 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 1: it was last year that they feel like we got 688 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,000 Speaker 1: let's get rid of one of these guys because we 689 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 1: don't want to have um when it comes up to 690 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,719 Speaker 1: four years. Yeah, yeah, I was gonna say I wouldn't 691 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 1: until that, you know that would I would have him 692 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 1: up the same year, right, assuming if they picked up 693 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 1: Max ostensibly yes, but I would have um. I'm with 694 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 1: Fred on this. I would wait so the third year 695 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 1: and maybe going into that fourth year, if I thought 696 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:08,000 Speaker 1: that I could get something, then I would. But that's 697 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 1: a good yeah, but something has to be I think 698 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 1: for me at least like a third or sec. And 699 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 1: I know this is gonna do like you said something 700 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:15,920 Speaker 1: like you're always rooting for the blowout, but this one 701 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 1: you want, Like I'll say, my hypocritical thing today will 702 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 1: be cap related. Okay. I do think this value in 703 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 1: having a backup that you are feeling good about who 704 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:26,279 Speaker 1: doesn't make any money. I think this value in that. 705 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 1: I sure as much as I pooh pooh the crap 706 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 1: the cap, I do think. Oh yeah, well, I think 707 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 1: you're benefiting having a guy who's making a hundred veteran 708 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 1: backup salaries. You could probably line those up and I 709 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 1: bet it's dropping the bucket with Billy's Appy's getting paid. 710 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,319 Speaker 1: So and I think we were one of the like, 711 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:45,840 Speaker 1: you know, Brian Hoyer made a decent you know, backup 712 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:49,319 Speaker 1: quarterback salary as a thirty six thirty seven year old, 713 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 1: you know veteran. Yeah, eight five five past five hundred 714 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,840 Speaker 1: is eight ticket hu line eight five five pasts five hundred. 715 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,799 Speaker 1: Let's uh, let's go to the phones and see what 716 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 1: our listeners have to say. Let's start with Jerry in 717 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 1: North Carolina. Hey, Jerry, what's going on? Everybody? Hey a 718 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:11,879 Speaker 1: long time Patriots fan? Great? Hello Jerry? Hey, Hey, um, 719 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 1: so I got really a statement in two questions. The 720 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 1: statement goes like this, So, um, I think one of 721 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,239 Speaker 1: the biggest things a lot of people are missing when 722 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 1: it comes to the difference between Billy Zappy and Mac 723 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,800 Speaker 1: Jones is when you see Billy Zappy you see a 724 00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 1: little bit of that twinkle of um Brett Barkin, a 725 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: little bit of that gun plinner versus the long term 726 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:41,279 Speaker 1: thinking thing that you get with Mac Jones. Okay, so 727 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:42,560 Speaker 1: which one do you like? What do you say the 728 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:48,680 Speaker 1: long term one? You get the methodical thinking, processing type 729 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 1: situation with Mac Jones that a lot of times get 730 00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,439 Speaker 1: him in trouble and he missus. Reef, Well, here's the thing, 731 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 1: if if, if numbers mean anything to you, Zappy had 732 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,440 Speaker 1: some pretty damn good numbers in college now, albeit against 733 00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 1: lesser competition. But man, he chucked the ball around, right, 734 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,880 Speaker 1: So which one do you prefer? Jerry? So let me 735 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 1: ask you this before I answer that question. They may 736 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 1: ask you this. If Bailey ZAPPI was at Alabama with 737 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,160 Speaker 1: the same tools that Mac Jones had, do you think 738 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:20,759 Speaker 1: it would have been a different result or it would 739 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 1: have been higher? Oh? God, I think could have been 740 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 1: the same result. I don't know. I mean, yeah, I 741 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:31,800 Speaker 1: think I think you could plug any quarterback team and 742 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 1: you would have had the same result. You got receivers 743 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,919 Speaker 1: like you know Wattle, and you know, I mean it's everything. Yeah, 744 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,319 Speaker 1: it's the coaching line, it's the line, it's the receivers, 745 00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 1: it's the defense. Yeah, it had probably been similar. Yeah, 746 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 1: So what I'm saying is, would we still be having 747 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 1: the same conversation as if he's a backup quarterback, if 748 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 1: he would have played at Alabama with the same tools. Um, 749 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,520 Speaker 1: it's a good point. It's a good point. The pedigree, 750 00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put you down for zappy competition would have 751 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 1: been there. Yep, yeah, yep, yeah, okay, okay. But my 752 00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 1: question is when are we going to start seeing more 753 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:14,759 Speaker 1: of the trips uh sets with the with the wire receivers, 754 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 1: Like we got Kendrick Moore, we see Thornton's back, we 755 00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 1: still got Jakobe Myers. I feel like we can get 756 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:25,800 Speaker 1: a lot more UM play actions off those trips that 757 00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 1: I think we've seen a little bit of that. I 758 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,400 Speaker 1: have to ask Evan, but I do remember them. I 759 00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:32,239 Speaker 1: don't have the numbers because I don't care, but I 760 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 1: see like Parker Myers in in uh yeah, and I 761 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 1: and I and you know in a trip set too. 762 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 1: I've seen them all on the same side, like stacked 763 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 1: and you know, I've seen a little bit of that. Yeah, 764 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:49,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I think three receivers is their most popular 765 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,879 Speaker 1: personnel group. Yeah. I played almost entirely the first couple 766 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,319 Speaker 1: of weeks too in it. Yeah, So I think you'll 767 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:56,759 Speaker 1: see a little bit more of that, and I think 768 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 1: you've seen already a little of it already. I think 769 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,399 Speaker 1: injured still depend on it, you know, And I don't 770 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:03,920 Speaker 1: know they feel like they can build off anything that 771 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 1: Johnny did you know? Is that can that bump up 772 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 1: the two tight ends at all? But I think that 773 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 1: the injuries to Born and aglare the big question. It 774 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 1: makes us a little thin right now, all of us. 775 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 1: You know, before it was like, oh we've got this 776 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:18,120 Speaker 1: glut of wide receivers and now or many Tree Nixon? Yeah, right, 777 00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:23,680 Speaker 1: So yeah, question, is there any true to the Patriots 778 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:27,520 Speaker 1: looking at a DJ more. I haven't heard anybody j 779 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,600 Speaker 1: the Patriots but that I don't really look at a 780 00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 1: lot of that stuff. So I haven't seen it. I 781 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 1: haven't heard it. I haven't heard I got a wide 782 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:38,799 Speaker 1: receiver one for you. Um Thanks Jerry, Thanks Jerry. Um. So, 783 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 1: like we were talking about Jeremy Foller had born in 784 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:45,800 Speaker 1: Agalore as possible trade candidates, and you know my initial 785 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,360 Speaker 1: reaction is like, well, I mean, obviously not going to 786 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:49,719 Speaker 1: get rid of both of them. I think they would 787 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 1: get rid of one if they got rid of any 788 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 1: of them. But what if they traded Born because they 789 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:56,360 Speaker 1: thought they could get something for him, and then signed 790 00:38:56,400 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham, who's now seemingly getting close. I saw something 791 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 1: like the Chiefs are now you know, involved in that. 792 00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 1: It no longer looks like it's a foregone conclusion that 793 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:09,720 Speaker 1: he's returning to the Rams, which I think most people 794 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:11,880 Speaker 1: entered the season thinking he's going back to the Rams. 795 00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 1: Maybe he's looking at that offensive line and say, which 796 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,520 Speaker 1: good is it going to do? And Stafford gets killed 797 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:18,040 Speaker 1: every play? You know, I'm not gonna be able to 798 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:22,239 Speaker 1: do anything. But would you be willing to entertain that? Fred? 799 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 1: If they traded Born, maybe got a draft pick or two, 800 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 1: and signed Odell Beckham? When's the deadline November first? I'm 801 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 1: just thinking, do I have enough information to say, Okay, 802 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 1: we've got a shot it's worth bringing him in, or 803 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 1: like it ain't gonna make a difference. Ah? I think so? 804 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 1: I would? I mean? I would? I mean right now, 805 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 1: my feeling about this Patriots team is that I wouldn't 806 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 1: probably want to stack them up against Buffalo. But I 807 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,479 Speaker 1: think if you added one more receiver to the mix. 808 00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I take them against I mean straight up anybody. 809 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know they'll beat anybody that could 810 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:57,319 Speaker 1: beat or lose to anybody. I guess outside. How much 811 00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:00,320 Speaker 1: better do you think the Patriots are offensively with Odell 812 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 1: Beckham instead of Kendrick Bourne. I'd like to believe that 813 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:06,360 Speaker 1: they would. They would be healthy, think they'd have to 814 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,799 Speaker 1: be They'd be better. Yeah, they'd be better. I don't 815 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 1: know how much, but they would be better not I mean, 816 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:12,840 Speaker 1: it's hard to know where Odell Beckham's at, how he 817 00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 1: would kind of fit into things, and you know, if 818 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 1: he messes better with how if they were using Born 819 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 1: like last year, I would probably say, I don't really 820 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:22,480 Speaker 1: I'd rather have the guy that's been in the system 821 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 1: and work, and I know he works, and as opposed 822 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 1: to bringing the guy in who has more talent. You 823 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:29,799 Speaker 1: don't think anybody would argue with that Beckham is a 824 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 1: better player than Kenrick Boy. I don't think anybody would 825 00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:35,920 Speaker 1: argue that, Um, you know, maybe some of the Wall defenders, 826 00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:38,240 Speaker 1: but I mean I think most people would would admit 827 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:41,759 Speaker 1: that Beckham's a better player, yeah, but maybe not necessarily 828 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 1: better for you a team right now, and I think 829 00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:44,400 Speaker 1: you're right though. I think there's still a part of 830 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:45,960 Speaker 1: me though, it's just like, can we just play Born 831 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 1: more and get more out of him. I mean, he's 832 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:49,640 Speaker 1: got the toe injury now too, which probably going to 833 00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:53,279 Speaker 1: complicate those matters a little bit. But I don't know. 834 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 1: It's tough. I mean, it's a tough balance because Agglore 835 00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 1: has the big contract, but he probably has a little 836 00:40:57,640 --> 00:40:59,720 Speaker 1: bit more appeal. I would say, just to other teams 837 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:01,719 Speaker 1: that he's kind of been around a little bit, had 838 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:05,320 Speaker 1: some success in Philadelphia. Born it's a little bit harder, 839 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:07,359 Speaker 1: I think to translate like how does he fit into 840 00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 1: everybody else's team? But he's more affordable, so that might 841 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 1: make him more movable. I think at the end of 842 00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 1: the day, they're gonna just stick with what they got. 843 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:16,120 Speaker 1: Ever see here, though, let's go back to the phones. 844 00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:20,759 Speaker 1: We'll go to Anthony in Seattle. What's up, Anthony? The 845 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:25,759 Speaker 1: worlds are read? No podcast? You got it? You got it? 846 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:30,360 Speaker 1: I love that, man, I love that. Hey, um, a 847 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:34,800 Speaker 1: couple quick things, um uh, I completely drew a blank. 848 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 1: Not so quick. Oh hey, Paul put me down for 849 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:42,240 Speaker 1: for Matt last I saw what he was making plays 850 00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:45,279 Speaker 1: that I didn't think he was capable of making. So 851 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:47,120 Speaker 1: I want to see more of that to see if 852 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 1: he can do that or that he was just out 853 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 1: of his mind that day, because I mean, if he 854 00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 1: can be that but with one intercess in the set 855 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:55,800 Speaker 1: of three, then he's my quarterback. So I want to 856 00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:58,520 Speaker 1: see if they can do that. All right, Um, I 857 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 1: uh what? I would you know it's calling it because 858 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:05,719 Speaker 1: I was thinking about them the debate, that's the hot 859 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:09,480 Speaker 1: debate about the down fifteen and going for two and 860 00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 1: all that just stuff. And I actually haven't answered a 861 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:14,759 Speaker 1: Paul's question why is it better to be down at 862 00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 1: nine than eight? Which I didn't think. I haven't an 863 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,600 Speaker 1: answer to that. But before I answer that, I do 864 00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 1: want to say, Paul, I'm with you. If you put 865 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:24,279 Speaker 1: me in the situation, I'm just gonna take the extra 866 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 1: point every time and try to get to two later. Um. 867 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:30,719 Speaker 1: But when people were calling an emailing with their analytics 868 00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:33,440 Speaker 1: and they brought analytics to the picture, I don't want 869 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,120 Speaker 1: to say I changed my mind, but they made me 870 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,719 Speaker 1: realize that it's more of if you're gonna look at 871 00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,920 Speaker 1: it from an analytics standpoint, it's actually just kind of 872 00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:42,839 Speaker 1: it's the same thing. It's like right down the middle, 873 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 1: you're either what you know, you're either gonna be successful 874 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 1: on the two point conversion or unsuccessful. Whether it's the 875 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:52,959 Speaker 1: first time or second time. You're either gonna be tie 876 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:54,960 Speaker 1: the game, or you're gonna be down two point kick 877 00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:56,719 Speaker 1: kicking an on side at the end of the game. 878 00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 1: But but one one flight advantage, UH, to what you 879 00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 1: were asking, Paul, why is it better to be down 880 00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:05,840 Speaker 1: nine than eight? If you're just just asking that question 881 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 1: in general, of course, not if you'd rather be down eight, 882 00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:11,960 Speaker 1: But if you're looking at it from in that scenario, um, 883 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:16,280 Speaker 1: and you're again you're you're using analytics, you have to assume, Okay, 884 00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 1: the same percent is the same chance that UH is 885 00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 1: that you missed either made the extra two point in 886 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,200 Speaker 1: version or you missed the extra or you missed the 887 00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,200 Speaker 1: two pointing version, whether you went for it on the 888 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:28,840 Speaker 1: first second attempt. So go off the permits that you 889 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 1: missed the two point conversion either way. Well, then if 890 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:34,680 Speaker 1: you're down let's say you're if you're down nine, then 891 00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 1: that means you've already failed. If you're down eight, that 892 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 1: just means you haven't failed. Yet right, So if you're 893 00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 1: down nine, you kick the ball off, which I think 894 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 1: that you're also still got time to kick the ball 895 00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:49,960 Speaker 1: off if there's six minutes left. But but either way 896 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:53,520 Speaker 1: that you're here nor you say, let's say you're driving, 897 00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:55,520 Speaker 1: you're you know you're going at you're going fast. You 898 00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:57,799 Speaker 1: need you need two scores. Right. Let's say you get 899 00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:00,080 Speaker 1: to a fourth down and you got you know, all 900 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:01,920 Speaker 1: the time, I was left two and a half minutes 901 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,400 Speaker 1: left in the game. If you're down nine, he's already 902 00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 1: failed and you're in field goal range, the field goal 903 00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:10,480 Speaker 1: is in play. If you're down eight, the field goal 904 00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:13,320 Speaker 1: is no longer in play. So in that Saints scenario, 905 00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 1: you you know that you continue to drive, but say 906 00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:18,439 Speaker 1: you can burn the fourth down? Wait wait wait wait 907 00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:23,840 Speaker 1: wait wait, So you're down nine, the field goals in 908 00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:27,920 Speaker 1: play to make it six, right, right, So why down eight? 909 00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 1: Is the field goal not in play to make it five? 910 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 1: Either way, you still need a touchdown? No, no no, no, 911 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:34,919 Speaker 1: because because you're well, yes, the field goal isn't played, 912 00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:36,719 Speaker 1: but you're gonna get crucified, right because you don't know 913 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:38,680 Speaker 1: that you've failed the two bing and burthen yet. So 914 00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:40,879 Speaker 1: if you yes, you you absolutely can't kick the field 915 00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:42,920 Speaker 1: goal to make it five, But then they're gonna I 916 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:44,560 Speaker 1: wish kick a field goal. You gotta do you know 917 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:47,439 Speaker 1: what I mean? No, No, because Bill Belichick was down 918 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:49,840 Speaker 1: eight and didn't kick field goals in the twenty fifteen 919 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:53,000 Speaker 1: AFC Championship game against Denver, and he got crucified for 920 00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 1: it because if they kicked field goals on those three trips, 921 00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:59,120 Speaker 1: they wouldn't have had Remember, they ended up getting a 922 00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 1: touchdown and ultimately didn't get the two in the last minute. Anthony. 923 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:06,439 Speaker 1: I also I summarily dismiss the fact that the two 924 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:09,359 Speaker 1: point conversion play is always the same percentage, Like, if 925 00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:11,480 Speaker 1: you miss it early, you'll get you know, chances are 926 00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:13,440 Speaker 1: you get it late. You can't tell me that if 927 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:15,440 Speaker 1: a team rallies for fifteen points in the last six 928 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:17,760 Speaker 1: minutes of the game, that the chances of them getting 929 00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:20,439 Speaker 1: the two point conversion in the last minute aren't better 930 00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:22,720 Speaker 1: than they were with six minutes left before the comeback 931 00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 1: has even started. Like, you can't tell me the motions 932 00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:28,359 Speaker 1: don't twenty three that did you think there was any 933 00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:30,560 Speaker 1: chance that those two two point conversions weren't going to 934 00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:33,360 Speaker 1: get converted? No, the train was rolling. Yeah, that's but 935 00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:35,279 Speaker 1: if you ask me about the other you asked me 936 00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:36,880 Speaker 1: about a third time play in the second quarter, I 937 00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 1: would have told you again and the defense was gassed, right, 938 00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:43,399 Speaker 1: you know So, Anthony, thanks for the call. But I'll 939 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:45,440 Speaker 1: tell you I get the theory. I mean, I understand 940 00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:47,279 Speaker 1: we've got so many I'm not going to get out 941 00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 1: to them, and everybody has explained it. Everybody has explained it. 942 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:53,920 Speaker 1: I understand what the mentality is. Am I allowed to 943 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:58,480 Speaker 1: disagree with it? Sure? I don't really get the notion 944 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:01,320 Speaker 1: that three scores in the last six minutes, it matters 945 00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:04,760 Speaker 1: how you get them, Like I would rather go seven 946 00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:09,120 Speaker 1: first than six. That's all you guys. It doesn't matter 947 00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:11,920 Speaker 1: because it's on a chart and it says, you know, 948 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:17,480 Speaker 1: I would rather only need two scores. Yeah, but then three. 949 00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:21,040 Speaker 1: This is an important issue to people, but they're all 950 00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:23,920 Speaker 1: exp they're all explaining it the same way, and I 951 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:26,560 Speaker 1: get it. They're all explaining it properly. I totally understand. 952 00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:28,360 Speaker 1: This is another thing. It's kind of like the soccer 953 00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:30,600 Speaker 1: people who tell you that you just don't understand it. 954 00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:34,640 Speaker 1: I understand. I just disagree. I'm like, we don't all 955 00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:37,680 Speaker 1: have to have the same opinion on things. Fourth down 956 00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:40,960 Speaker 1: from from like the other team's forty, go for it. 957 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,400 Speaker 1: I love it. The analytics will tell you it's a 958 00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:46,920 Speaker 1: great move. I get it, I understand it. I agree 959 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:49,480 Speaker 1: with it. But not every time. Not every time do 960 00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:53,279 Speaker 1: I agree with two points? Why do you think? Why 961 00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:56,799 Speaker 1: do you think most coaches feel it's best to put 962 00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:59,960 Speaker 1: off going for two as long as you can later 963 00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:01,719 Speaker 1: in the game you get then you you know, when 964 00:47:01,719 --> 00:47:04,000 Speaker 1: you're when you're chasing points, you put it off as 965 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:05,799 Speaker 1: long as you can. Why do people think that is? 966 00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:09,000 Speaker 1: Because because it extends the game. It extends a game, 967 00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:12,399 Speaker 1: but it's also more sure to get the point. Take 968 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:17,239 Speaker 1: the point. No, no, but but my point, like you 969 00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:19,879 Speaker 1: want to have hope, you want to play the rest 970 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:21,840 Speaker 1: of the game. Like the game ended on them failed 971 00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 1: two point conversion. I know people don't agree, but the 972 00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:28,360 Speaker 1: game ended because they found themselves still down two scores 973 00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:30,680 Speaker 1: with six minutes left. And now I need a miracle. 974 00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:36,719 Speaker 1: Now I need Kenyan Drake in Miami Miracle. Okay, if 975 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:38,640 Speaker 1: I only need eight, I don't need a miracle.

Now, 1156 00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:06,040 Speaker 1: great moments in history, Well, you're in between today with 1157 00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:09,240 Speaker 1: a salmon color. It's not quite fall, not quite summer. 1158 00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:11,880 Speaker 1: It's almost like a sunset color. Yeah, right, the end 1159 00:58:11,920 --> 00:58:14,000 Speaker 1: of one season the beginning of another. I like it. 1160 00:58:16,680 --> 00:58:20,080 Speaker 1: No hard shirt though, no, yeah, it's human. You don't 1161 00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:22,320 Speaker 1: have one either. No. I never wear fur bearing animal 1162 00:58:23,520 --> 00:58:26,760 Speaker 1: shirt with a dress shirt. Yeah, but not with a 1163 00:58:26,760 --> 00:58:30,720 Speaker 1: polo shirt. That's just right, because it's ridiculous. It's ridiculous. Yeah, 1164 00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:33,520 Speaker 1: okay to wear Undershirts are for long sleeve. When you 1165 00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:34,840 Speaker 1: have a long seam, you don't want to, you know, 1166 00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:37,280 Speaker 1: but you have a short you don't wear a short 1167 00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 1: sleeve shirt on top of a short sleeve shirt. That's 1168 00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:44,240 Speaker 1: just I thought, for hygienic reasons, it's moronic. Why do 1169 00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,320 Speaker 1: you wear an undershirt then, when you have a long 1170 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:49,200 Speaker 1: sleeve shirt, Yes, like a dress shirt. Yes, you want 1171 00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:50,800 Speaker 1: to have something so that in case you get a 1172 00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:54,720 Speaker 1: little warm, you know, the aspiring. Yeah, the dress shirt 1173 00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:58,800 Speaker 1: doesn't get so you don't care about that piring because 1174 00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:01,000 Speaker 1: it looks ridiculous to have a short sleeve shirt on 1175 00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:03,400 Speaker 1: top of a short sleeve shirt. I feel attacked right now, 1176 00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:07,320 Speaker 1: and I don't really I don't care for this, not 1177 00:59:07,360 --> 00:59:09,360 Speaker 1: only that, not only that, and I don't really understand 1178 00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:12,360 Speaker 1: the difference one layer. That just called you ridiculous. I'm 1179 00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:16,800 Speaker 1: trying to I'm going to storm out of here, ridiculous. 1180 00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:22,040 Speaker 1: One layer is less, uh is cooler than two layers. 1181 00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:25,200 Speaker 1: You have two layers of clothing that's technically warmer. So 1182 00:59:25,320 --> 00:59:26,800 Speaker 1: on a warm day, if you wear two layers, you're 1183 00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:28,400 Speaker 1: gonna be hotter and you're gonna swept. So on a 1184 00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:30,560 Speaker 1: warm day with a dress shirt, you'd only wear just 1185 00:59:30,720 --> 00:59:34,400 Speaker 1: the dress shirt. Uh. Yeah, to tell you you're having 1186 00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:40,600 Speaker 1: fatting practice, This is just this is a clinic. That's 1187 00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:46,360 Speaker 1: another great moment from Patriots Unfiltered is brought to you 1188 00:59:46,400 --> 00:59:50,240 Speaker 1: by the Massachusetts Office of Travel and Tourism. Great memories 1189 00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:52,680 Speaker 1: are made in Massachusetts, no matter how you choose to 1190 00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:55,840 Speaker 1: make them, indoors or outdoors, scenic views or city vibes, 1191 00:59:55,920 --> 00:59:59,120 Speaker 1: solo or family style, whatever moves you, whatever the season, 1192 00:59:59,400 --> 01:00:04,360 Speaker 1: playing your perfect Massachusetts getaway at visit ma dot com. 1193 01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:21,439 Speaker 1: Guess what Evan has done has been done? I told 1194 01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:23,880 Speaker 1: you it was a banger. Yeah, okay, So we were 1195 01:00:23,880 --> 01:00:26,360 Speaker 1: walking back from practice and Evan said that there was 1196 01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:28,720 Speaker 1: a song and everything, and I thought he was joking. No, 1197 01:00:28,960 --> 01:00:33,840 Speaker 1: you've never heard that before. Thanks for listening. Yeah, yeah, 1198 01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:35,680 Speaker 1: I told her it was a banger. Was it a banger? 1199 01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:37,800 Speaker 1: It used to be the Douce song and then we 1200 01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:40,880 Speaker 1: changed it to Evan. I like the original, better choate. 1201 01:00:41,440 --> 01:00:44,080 Speaker 1: So Evan isn't fact back from practice and he's got 1202 01:00:44,120 --> 01:00:48,000 Speaker 1: some news. I do have some news, and I've taken 1203 01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:51,560 Speaker 1: some tile and all. I've rested up and my fever 1204 01:00:51,720 --> 01:00:55,200 Speaker 1: is back to normal. Because based off of what we 1205 01:00:55,280 --> 01:00:58,120 Speaker 1: saw out at practice today, it sure looks like Mac 1206 01:00:58,200 --> 01:01:01,760 Speaker 1: Jones is feeling it is looking more like himself. We 1207 01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:04,440 Speaker 1: also had some reports this morning along the same lines. 1208 01:01:04,920 --> 01:01:08,240 Speaker 1: And the tell is always when you see the starting 1209 01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:12,160 Speaker 1: offensive line get together with the quarterback. One quarterback, not 1210 01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:15,800 Speaker 1: all the quarterbacks, goes and works on the snap cadence 1211 01:01:15,880 --> 01:01:18,400 Speaker 1: with the offensive line. Last couple of weeks it's been 1212 01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:21,600 Speaker 1: Bailey Zappy. This week it was number ten Mac Jones. 1213 01:01:21,640 --> 01:01:25,560 Speaker 1: So Mac is back at QB one. I think it's 1214 01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:30,280 Speaker 1: safe to say that. Okay, yeah, and I think, Tamara, 1215 01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:32,600 Speaker 1: what do you think you were there? Evan Earlier they 1216 01:01:32,640 --> 01:01:35,640 Speaker 1: had Fred had us all ground and pick who we 1217 01:01:35,680 --> 01:01:37,920 Speaker 1: think should start a Monday, and I said, wait, I 1218 01:01:37,920 --> 01:01:40,440 Speaker 1: need to see if Matt Kim run at practice. My 1219 01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:42,800 Speaker 1: eyes have seen him run at practice, and it didn't 1220 01:01:42,800 --> 01:01:46,760 Speaker 1: look like glory. Yes, I didn't see a limp. I 1221 01:01:46,800 --> 01:01:50,200 Speaker 1: saw like normal what appeared to be normal Mac Jones 1222 01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:52,200 Speaker 1: out there, So all right. Yeah, they were playing the 1223 01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:56,400 Speaker 1: Monday Night Football song to open practice and some people 1224 01:01:56,440 --> 01:02:00,000 Speaker 1: have video of Mac his sprint that Tamara is talking about, 1225 01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:03,360 Speaker 1: and it's syncing up with the beats of Monday Night Football. 1226 01:02:03,800 --> 01:02:07,680 Speaker 1: So the vibe is off the charts right now. But 1227 01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:10,280 Speaker 1: he answered your mood question before you even asked it. Yeah, 1228 01:02:10,320 --> 01:02:16,920 Speaker 1: that's true. Oh could still last. Yeah, mood well, and 1229 01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:19,840 Speaker 1: you know, I guess the sharps did know something because, 1230 01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:21,960 Speaker 1: like we said, it opened up at like six and 1231 01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:24,680 Speaker 1: a half and it's up to nine in some places now, 1232 01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:28,200 Speaker 1: so they really think that MAC makes a difference, you know, 1233 01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:32,080 Speaker 1: field goal difference. Yeah, there weren't two guys missing from 1234 01:02:32,120 --> 01:02:35,800 Speaker 1: practice that we should mention. Lawrence Guy not there. I 1235 01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:38,720 Speaker 1: don't like that for the open portion, and Nelson Agalore 1236 01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:44,880 Speaker 1: also not there from the open portion. Alas got the hamstring. 1237 01:02:45,160 --> 01:02:47,640 Speaker 1: Lawrence Guy has got shoulder. He's been out the last 1238 01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:50,080 Speaker 1: couple of weeks since the Ravens game. Is well similar 1239 01:02:50,120 --> 01:02:52,800 Speaker 1: to Mac, so but guy's been practicing right, Like that's 1240 01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:57,200 Speaker 1: kind of strange. Yeah, yeah, so I I spotted him, 1241 01:02:57,480 --> 01:03:01,800 Speaker 1: but he was not partaking. What about Born was there 1242 01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:05,520 Speaker 1: with his toe? Born was there with the sweet visor 1243 01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:08,880 Speaker 1: on as well? Yeah, he was there visor. Yes, what 1244 01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:11,400 Speaker 1: was the what were the with the pads? Pads full pads? 1245 01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:15,000 Speaker 1: Damien Harris there, Damion Harris there, Yeah, and going through drills. Yeah, 1246 01:03:15,120 --> 01:03:16,920 Speaker 1: going through drills and he was the first guy going 1247 01:03:16,960 --> 01:03:20,280 Speaker 1: through every single drill. And again all right, maybe didn't 1248 01:03:20,280 --> 01:03:25,800 Speaker 1: see a limp. He went through drills. Yeah, pregame in Cleveland. 1249 01:03:26,680 --> 01:03:30,520 Speaker 1: He tested it out pregame from Cleveland, and you could 1250 01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:33,560 Speaker 1: tell without even reading lips or anything like that that 1251 01:03:33,600 --> 01:03:35,760 Speaker 1: he wasn't going to play because he kept on grabbing 1252 01:03:35,920 --> 01:03:38,520 Speaker 1: at the leg every single time. You know, he was like, 1253 01:03:38,520 --> 01:03:40,320 Speaker 1: oh it's you know, kind of pointing where the pain 1254 01:03:40,480 --> 01:03:43,960 Speaker 1: was coming to Moses Cabrera. So yeah, it was pretty 1255 01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:46,840 Speaker 1: evident based off of pregame warmups in Cleveland that he 1256 01:03:46,920 --> 01:03:51,200 Speaker 1: was not playing. Okay, well right now, as of right now, 1257 01:03:51,280 --> 01:03:56,080 Speaker 1: it looks like Mac has a chance to start. Yep, yeah, 1258 01:03:56,120 --> 01:03:57,800 Speaker 1: I think, I mean, I think that's probably the favorite 1259 01:03:57,840 --> 01:04:00,360 Speaker 1: in the clubhouse, right oh yeah, yeah. But I thought 1260 01:04:00,360 --> 01:04:03,880 Speaker 1: it was interesting that Bill. What was this Friday where 1261 01:04:03,920 --> 01:04:07,160 Speaker 1: he kept saying like someone could feel really good in 1262 01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:09,480 Speaker 1: practice the next day, wake up and be like that's 1263 01:04:09,560 --> 01:04:14,080 Speaker 1: right backwards. So I thought that's something you'd take a 1264 01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:15,960 Speaker 1: look at too. Was just seeing like, you know, how 1265 01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:18,720 Speaker 1: consistent this days throughout the weeks, Right, you're saying you 1266 01:04:18,720 --> 01:04:21,320 Speaker 1: gotta wait till next practice. I think we gotta wait 1267 01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:25,160 Speaker 1: till Monday. He kept saying how important that Saturday is 1268 01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:27,440 Speaker 1: and how everybody when they wake up that Saturday, how 1269 01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:29,600 Speaker 1: they feel, because that could tell a lot about if 1270 01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:30,840 Speaker 1: they're gonna be ready for the game. Yeah. You know, 1271 01:04:30,880 --> 01:04:32,880 Speaker 1: what's an interesting little thing I was wondering too. They've 1272 01:04:32,960 --> 01:04:35,520 Speaker 1: now promoted Garrett Gilbert I believe twice correct from the 1273 01:04:35,520 --> 01:04:37,880 Speaker 1: practice squad, so they got one one or more. Yeah, 1274 01:04:37,960 --> 01:04:40,320 Speaker 1: so kind of interesting, like little inflection point can you 1275 01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:43,120 Speaker 1: set those or something I thought I saw Miguel talking about. 1276 01:04:43,320 --> 01:04:47,640 Speaker 1: So you can. Once he gets to three. My understanding 1277 01:04:47,760 --> 01:04:49,320 Speaker 1: is then you have to sign him to the fifty 1278 01:04:49,400 --> 01:04:54,080 Speaker 1: three to activate him on game day, and he can. 1279 01:04:55,080 --> 01:04:58,720 Speaker 1: He passes through waivers, right, that's the biggest thing. It's different. 1280 01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:01,480 Speaker 1: So with the standard elevation, they revert back to the 1281 01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:04,720 Speaker 1: practice squad the next day after the game and they 1282 01:05:04,760 --> 01:05:07,240 Speaker 1: don't have to pass through waivers, and that's how you 1283 01:05:07,280 --> 01:05:09,560 Speaker 1: can get guys up from the practice squad. But once 1284 01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:13,800 Speaker 1: you get beyond that three standard elevation number, now guys 1285 01:05:13,800 --> 01:05:16,240 Speaker 1: are subject to waivers. So I don't necessarily think it 1286 01:05:16,240 --> 01:05:19,280 Speaker 1: would matter for Garrett Gilbert. But little Jordan Humphrey has 1287 01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:22,880 Speaker 1: already gotten elevated twice, so he only has one more 1288 01:05:22,920 --> 01:05:25,360 Speaker 1: to go. And if Aglare is not going to be 1289 01:05:25,800 --> 01:05:28,440 Speaker 1: out there, then then fairness, he has already cleared waivers. 1290 01:05:28,480 --> 01:05:30,360 Speaker 1: Once he has I don't really think you have to 1291 01:05:30,360 --> 01:05:31,960 Speaker 1: worry about that. I don't think you'll have to worry 1292 01:05:31,960 --> 01:05:33,480 Speaker 1: about it with Derek Hill. All right, Well, if you're 1293 01:05:33,520 --> 01:05:35,200 Speaker 1: feeling good about it, Paul, then I guess I mean 1294 01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:37,240 Speaker 1: I might be I might be the outlier there, but 1295 01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:39,960 Speaker 1: I think I'm saying if anybody's gonna get claimed, it's 1296 01:05:39,960 --> 01:05:42,600 Speaker 1: gonna be Little Jordan, It's not gonna be Garrett Gilbert. Yeah, 1297 01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:44,040 Speaker 1: I think they have the same amount of chance of 1298 01:05:44,040 --> 01:05:48,240 Speaker 1: getting claimed. Pads are no pads today, full pads, full pads, 1299 01:05:48,280 --> 01:05:51,000 Speaker 1: full pad pads. If you paid attention to Evan's given 1300 01:05:51,040 --> 01:05:56,120 Speaker 1: you all this information, full pads, they're Kedderborne did have 1301 01:05:56,120 --> 01:06:00,680 Speaker 1: a visor one, but yeah, full pads. I think yesterday, 1302 01:06:00,880 --> 01:06:02,880 Speaker 1: you know, Belichick when we talked to him in the morning, 1303 01:06:02,920 --> 01:06:05,240 Speaker 1: said they were going to do meetings in film work 1304 01:06:05,280 --> 01:06:07,200 Speaker 1: and kind of get ahead on that sort of stuff. 1305 01:06:07,280 --> 01:06:10,320 Speaker 1: So today I think it sounds like a pretty full 1306 01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:14,200 Speaker 1: go at practice in terms of in season practice. So 1307 01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:17,520 Speaker 1: do you think you know this is just a theory. 1308 01:06:18,120 --> 01:06:20,360 Speaker 1: Do you think Bill wants to get that full practice, 1309 01:06:20,400 --> 01:06:23,080 Speaker 1: full pad practice right now? To see how Mac does 1310 01:06:23,960 --> 01:06:26,880 Speaker 1: right now, it's possible. Well, it's usually the first practice 1311 01:06:26,960 --> 01:06:29,720 Speaker 1: that is full pads when they when they go full pads. 1312 01:06:30,080 --> 01:06:32,040 Speaker 1: Some weeks they don't go full pads at all. I think, 1313 01:06:32,240 --> 01:06:34,120 Speaker 1: what is it like eleven out of fourteen weeks or 1314 01:06:34,160 --> 01:06:36,600 Speaker 1: something like that. Some weeks they don't go full pads 1315 01:06:36,600 --> 01:06:38,400 Speaker 1: at all, But when they do, it's usually the first. 1316 01:06:38,440 --> 01:06:41,440 Speaker 1: It's usually Wednesday, which is today, was a week they 1317 01:06:41,520 --> 01:06:43,120 Speaker 1: chose to be in the pads that day, and they 1318 01:06:43,120 --> 01:06:45,240 Speaker 1: were last week too. I thought, yeah, they were in 1319 01:06:45,320 --> 01:06:47,800 Speaker 1: pads last week. It was the week before that. Ago 1320 01:06:47,920 --> 01:06:50,280 Speaker 1: is that we took a day? Yeah, they walk through. 1321 01:06:50,360 --> 01:06:53,440 Speaker 1: They took the walk through day after the overtime games. Yeah, 1322 01:06:53,600 --> 01:06:55,440 Speaker 1: I think it was after the overtime game. They went 1323 01:06:55,520 --> 01:06:58,600 Speaker 1: walked through on the Wednesday. It was after the Ravens game. Okay, yeah, 1324 01:06:58,760 --> 01:07:02,720 Speaker 1: So with Mac back out there running around, how did 1325 01:07:02,760 --> 01:07:06,560 Speaker 1: that affect the mood? Look, I mean a big media 1326 01:07:06,600 --> 01:07:09,200 Speaker 1: contingent out there are a lot of cameras big on 1327 01:07:09,360 --> 01:07:12,400 Speaker 1: Mac Jones. I think the rest report how report this 1328 01:07:12,600 --> 01:07:15,560 Speaker 1: morning kind of stirring up the buzz that Mac Jones 1329 01:07:15,720 --> 01:07:19,000 Speaker 1: is expected to play on Monday Night for the Patriots. 1330 01:07:19,040 --> 01:07:21,960 Speaker 1: I think got a lot of people out there today, 1331 01:07:22,120 --> 01:07:25,880 Speaker 1: and yeah, I think the general feeling from everybody that 1332 01:07:26,040 --> 01:07:29,840 Speaker 1: was out there was that Mac looked like a different 1333 01:07:29,880 --> 01:07:32,360 Speaker 1: guy than what we not necessarily physically, I mean we 1334 01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:37,840 Speaker 1: barely saw physical evaluation, but in terms of just his vibe, right, 1335 01:07:37,920 --> 01:07:39,920 Speaker 1: you know, the way he was carrying himself, what he 1336 01:07:40,120 --> 01:07:42,000 Speaker 1: was doing, where he was when he was supposed to. 1337 01:07:42,040 --> 01:07:44,480 Speaker 1: So did he come out like sort of like this 1338 01:07:44,680 --> 01:07:48,320 Speaker 1: is my team, I'm back that kind of swagger. Yeah, 1339 01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:52,120 Speaker 1: not Like I think that's really interesting. I like that, 1340 01:07:52,480 --> 01:07:56,040 Speaker 1: Like like you're not necessarily saying, well, he was moving better, 1341 01:07:56,320 --> 01:08:02,360 Speaker 1: You're saying like his sort of aura exactly, yeah I'm back. Yeah, 1342 01:08:03,560 --> 01:08:06,040 Speaker 1: I like that. Yeah, I like that. I like that. 1343 01:08:06,160 --> 01:08:08,600 Speaker 1: I like I like that. I'm little Kirk Cousins like 1344 01:08:08,640 --> 01:08:11,080 Speaker 1: that he's excited. Well, but I'm being dead serious, like 1345 01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:13,800 Speaker 1: like you said, like when they usually break out and 1346 01:08:13,800 --> 01:08:17,240 Speaker 1: they start going, you know, through their stuff, and Bailey's 1347 01:08:17,280 --> 01:08:20,000 Speaker 1: appy was leading those periods last week and today it 1348 01:08:20,080 --> 01:08:22,599 Speaker 1: was Mac. I like that, like, this is my team. 1349 01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:25,040 Speaker 1: I'm the guy that Hey, Bailey, did you did a 1350 01:08:25,080 --> 01:08:28,680 Speaker 1: really good job. Thanks for not allowing the train to 1351 01:08:28,720 --> 01:08:30,400 Speaker 1: go off the tracks. But I got it finally, just 1352 01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:32,479 Speaker 1: give me the keys. I see what Ivan's talking about 1353 01:08:32,520 --> 01:08:33,960 Speaker 1: though in some of the videos, like he looks like, 1354 01:08:34,080 --> 01:08:35,680 Speaker 1: you know, like a kid, like running to his dog 1355 01:08:35,720 --> 01:08:38,400 Speaker 1: after school or something. I don't think that's insignificant. Maybe 1356 01:08:38,439 --> 01:08:41,479 Speaker 1: I'm making too much because well that just wasn't what 1357 01:08:41,640 --> 01:08:43,840 Speaker 1: we saw in the last couple of weeks that we've 1358 01:08:43,880 --> 01:08:46,600 Speaker 1: seen him out there participating in the limited capacity. And 1359 01:08:46,680 --> 01:08:49,040 Speaker 1: I'm not saying he won't be limited again today, right, 1360 01:08:49,160 --> 01:08:51,840 Speaker 1: but he's going to be limited on Monday, Like he's 1361 01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:55,000 Speaker 1: not like he had a serious high ankle sprain that 1362 01:08:55,160 --> 01:08:58,200 Speaker 1: didn't just disappear in four weeks. I know he's gonna 1363 01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:00,320 Speaker 1: be limping. I know it's not gonna look great, but 1364 01:09:00,600 --> 01:09:03,360 Speaker 1: I just like his vibe the way you're talking about yeah, yeah, 1365 01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:05,439 Speaker 1: and it might be too like the first maybe today's 1366 01:09:05,479 --> 01:09:07,400 Speaker 1: the first chance he actually gets to get into practice 1367 01:09:07,439 --> 01:09:09,800 Speaker 1: and like you know, he's excited to actually he knows 1368 01:09:09,840 --> 01:09:12,160 Speaker 1: he's going to make the first week that maybe maybe 1369 01:09:12,200 --> 01:09:15,240 Speaker 1: he's starting the practice week knowing he's got a chance 1370 01:09:15,320 --> 01:09:18,200 Speaker 1: to play. Well, I just will say that based off 1371 01:09:18,280 --> 01:09:21,320 Speaker 1: of what you hear the rumblings around the build, he 1372 01:09:21,479 --> 01:09:23,920 Speaker 1: did take part a little bit in practice last week 1373 01:09:23,960 --> 01:09:26,880 Speaker 1: at times, and that's why he traveled to Cleveland because 1374 01:09:26,920 --> 01:09:28,479 Speaker 1: there was a chance that he was going to play 1375 01:09:28,840 --> 01:09:31,240 Speaker 1: in that game on Sunday. I think on Saturday night 1376 01:09:31,600 --> 01:09:34,240 Speaker 1: they sort of made that decision that, look, with the 1377 01:09:34,280 --> 01:09:36,160 Speaker 1: Monday night game the next week, we have a little 1378 01:09:36,160 --> 01:09:39,000 Speaker 1: bit of a longer week. Let's let's play this safe 1379 01:09:39,040 --> 01:09:41,200 Speaker 1: and go one more week with it and make sure 1380 01:09:41,240 --> 01:09:43,439 Speaker 1: that it were one hundred percent or close to it 1381 01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:45,439 Speaker 1: as but it closes it to it as he can. 1382 01:09:45,600 --> 01:09:48,760 Speaker 1: But last week it was not all zappy taking first 1383 01:09:48,800 --> 01:09:51,920 Speaker 1: team reps. There were some instances where mac Jones was 1384 01:09:52,320 --> 01:09:54,960 Speaker 1: circling in there as well. So I think every single 1385 01:09:55,000 --> 01:09:56,880 Speaker 1: week we see a little bit more. But today, like 1386 01:09:57,680 --> 01:09:59,800 Speaker 1: we keep saying, it was just sort of the way 1387 01:09:59,840 --> 01:10:01,720 Speaker 1: he was carrying himself. Yeah, you know, it's just a 1388 01:10:01,760 --> 01:10:05,040 Speaker 1: different type of swack. I'm bad. Yeah yeah, all right, 1389 01:10:05,280 --> 01:10:08,000 Speaker 1: five five five hundred is the ACE ticket out line. Again. 1390 01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:10,240 Speaker 1: I want to thank Pete Ottawa for buying lunch today. 1391 01:10:10,320 --> 01:10:14,680 Speaker 1: Thanks Pete was delicious. Um, let's go to Matt and Arizona. 1392 01:10:14,760 --> 01:10:20,840 Speaker 1: What's up Matt? Well, Hey, hey hey everyone. Happy Sports 1393 01:10:20,920 --> 01:10:24,760 Speaker 1: Equinox Thursday Sports Equinox. All the sports are playing today. 1394 01:10:24,800 --> 01:10:29,960 Speaker 1: Oh wow, so um, I know you guys, don't you 1395 01:10:30,120 --> 01:10:32,880 Speaker 1: know all the trade rumors. But I heard I see 1396 01:10:32,960 --> 01:10:36,880 Speaker 1: that Jack Mason from the Panthers is potentially available. Is 1397 01:10:36,960 --> 01:10:40,360 Speaker 1: that something able to look into? Possibly Shack Thompson. Thompson, 1398 01:10:42,400 --> 01:10:47,200 Speaker 1: Jack Thompson from the Panthers, I think everybody and how 1399 01:10:47,680 --> 01:10:50,559 Speaker 1: he would fit in, man, I don't know. I mean, 1400 01:10:50,560 --> 01:10:53,000 Speaker 1: I think he's more of those the undersized guys, right, yeah, 1401 01:10:53,160 --> 01:10:55,920 Speaker 1: I'm I'm over chasing the speed at linebacker. I think 1402 01:10:56,240 --> 01:11:01,320 Speaker 1: they unless you're getting a player that is a freak 1403 01:11:01,400 --> 01:11:03,240 Speaker 1: and has that kind of speed with some size to 1404 01:11:03,400 --> 01:11:05,640 Speaker 1: him as well, like you know, prime Jamie Collins is 1405 01:11:05,680 --> 01:11:07,600 Speaker 1: like the example I always go back to, which is, 1406 01:11:08,120 --> 01:11:10,160 Speaker 1: you know, only a handful of guys on the planet 1407 01:11:10,200 --> 01:11:12,000 Speaker 1: that are two hundred and fifty five pounds that moved 1408 01:11:12,040 --> 01:11:14,880 Speaker 1: like Jamie Collins did. What's the difference between a guy 1409 01:11:14,960 --> 01:11:17,120 Speaker 1: like Shack Thompson and just playing Kyle Dugger at the 1410 01:11:17,240 --> 01:11:20,960 Speaker 1: linebacker level, or Adrian Phillips at linebacker or Mack Wilson. 1411 01:11:21,880 --> 01:11:25,519 Speaker 1: I just don't know if there's a huge yeah, good advantage. 1412 01:11:25,560 --> 01:11:27,040 Speaker 1: Go back to your Derek Brown thing. I think that's 1413 01:11:27,080 --> 01:11:29,800 Speaker 1: the that's the guy. Yes, yeah, thanks for the call, Matt. 1414 01:11:30,320 --> 01:11:34,120 Speaker 1: Let's go to Mike and Connecticut. What's up, Mike. Are 1415 01:11:34,120 --> 01:11:38,080 Speaker 1: you guys doing good? I remember you guys were talking 1416 01:11:38,160 --> 01:11:41,080 Speaker 1: earlier before the break about and Paul said too, you know, 1417 01:11:41,120 --> 01:11:43,479 Speaker 1: it's good to keep Zappy at the backup because he's chief. 1418 01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:46,320 Speaker 1: I think he's played well enough to keep that spot 1419 01:11:46,360 --> 01:11:48,880 Speaker 1: from Lawyer. And I mean, I'd rather see Zappy play 1420 01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:50,760 Speaker 1: if that was the case over Lawyer at this point. 1421 01:11:51,640 --> 01:11:53,120 Speaker 1: I'm team Mack by the way. I just want to 1422 01:11:53,120 --> 01:11:58,680 Speaker 1: get that gat, noted Um. I think it'd be good 1423 01:11:58,680 --> 01:12:00,840 Speaker 1: to keep him, you know, and I want him to 1424 01:12:00,880 --> 01:12:03,479 Speaker 1: push Mac. I don't want Mac to, you know, if 1425 01:12:03,760 --> 01:12:05,559 Speaker 1: it was the case, I don't want Mac to whine 1426 01:12:05,600 --> 01:12:08,200 Speaker 1: about Zappy being over his shoulder or whatever, like you know, 1427 01:12:08,760 --> 01:12:10,880 Speaker 1: go beat him up then, you know, like if you're 1428 01:12:11,120 --> 01:12:13,640 Speaker 1: as good as you possibly think you are, you know, 1429 01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:17,759 Speaker 1: you shouldn't have anything to worry about. Yep, R right totally. 1430 01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:19,760 Speaker 1: And then the last thing I wanted to, you know, 1431 01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:21,400 Speaker 1: and I guess it's great that Evan's there, you know, 1432 01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:23,320 Speaker 1: are we ever going to really see and maybe if 1433 01:12:23,400 --> 01:12:26,280 Speaker 1: Mac comes back, maybe we'll see that this week and 1434 01:12:26,320 --> 01:12:27,880 Speaker 1: maybe as we go forward, but are we going to 1435 01:12:27,920 --> 01:12:30,920 Speaker 1: ever see like more pre snap motion. I feel like 1436 01:12:30,960 --> 01:12:33,880 Speaker 1: when we watched the Dolphins versus Week one, they had 1437 01:12:33,920 --> 01:12:35,840 Speaker 1: Tyree Hill running all over the place, and I know 1438 01:12:35,920 --> 01:12:39,000 Speaker 1: that we don't maybe have someone like that, maybe Taekwon Thornton, 1439 01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:40,880 Speaker 1: we don't know, But like I feel like even with 1440 01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:44,240 Speaker 1: Kendrick Bourne, getting those guys moving before the snap could 1441 01:12:44,280 --> 01:12:46,840 Speaker 1: help out Mac or Zappy and and then get them 1442 01:12:46,880 --> 01:12:50,280 Speaker 1: going up the field with some speed. Yeah, it's I've 1443 01:12:50,320 --> 01:12:52,400 Speaker 1: been harpened on that since Week one and they're still 1444 01:12:52,720 --> 01:12:54,759 Speaker 1: near the bottom of the league in pre snap motion, 1445 01:12:54,920 --> 01:12:58,360 Speaker 1: and I don't think it's something that they are super 1446 01:12:58,439 --> 01:13:01,920 Speaker 1: crazy about now. I think one thing that definitely changes 1447 01:13:02,040 --> 01:13:04,439 Speaker 1: when you have a rookie quarterback is that sometimes the 1448 01:13:04,479 --> 01:13:08,160 Speaker 1: pre snap motion can actually cause a lot of confusion 1449 01:13:08,360 --> 01:13:11,599 Speaker 1: for both the offense and the defense. But obviously you're 1450 01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:14,360 Speaker 1: doing it to cause the defense of confusion, but offensively, 1451 01:13:14,400 --> 01:13:17,360 Speaker 1: you're changing the formation, you're changing the coverage structure, and 1452 01:13:17,479 --> 01:13:19,960 Speaker 1: there's different reads and things like that that you're going 1453 01:13:20,040 --> 01:13:22,400 Speaker 1: to have to make in a split second because of 1454 01:13:22,479 --> 01:13:26,000 Speaker 1: that motion. So a less experienced quarterback you usually dial 1455 01:13:26,120 --> 01:13:29,360 Speaker 1: back things like motion. Now play action that's different. That's 1456 01:13:29,400 --> 01:13:31,680 Speaker 1: something that you always want to use in general, but 1457 01:13:31,920 --> 01:13:34,240 Speaker 1: especially with the younger quarterback. But when it comes to 1458 01:13:34,360 --> 01:13:37,559 Speaker 1: motioning guys, that is kind of like, you know, more 1459 01:13:37,680 --> 01:13:41,479 Speaker 1: graduate level type of stuff for the most part. Yeah, yeah, 1460 01:13:41,479 --> 01:13:43,639 Speaker 1: and I agree, they definitely need to use more play 1461 01:13:43,680 --> 01:13:46,560 Speaker 1: action with Mac. I think whatever the low percentage it 1462 01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:50,880 Speaker 1: was when he was in there, it's just embarrassingly low. Yeah, 1463 01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:52,640 Speaker 1: especially with how well they've run the ball. And I 1464 01:13:52,760 --> 01:13:54,800 Speaker 1: know that's a cliche because you don't have to run 1465 01:13:54,880 --> 01:13:58,240 Speaker 1: the ball well to play action effectively, but I think 1466 01:13:58,280 --> 01:14:00,680 Speaker 1: it helps. So the better you the ball, I think 1467 01:14:00,680 --> 01:14:03,599 Speaker 1: it helps you. And they, you know, there were times 1468 01:14:03,600 --> 01:14:05,519 Speaker 1: where they were running the ball reasonably well, and they 1469 01:14:05,560 --> 01:14:08,240 Speaker 1: still haven't really used a ton of play action with 1470 01:14:08,400 --> 01:14:11,000 Speaker 1: Mac this year, not like last year and not like 1471 01:14:11,320 --> 01:14:14,040 Speaker 1: since Zappie has taken over. Yeah, I wouldn't. Like, I 1472 01:14:14,120 --> 01:14:16,599 Speaker 1: agree with the nerds and the fact that the volume 1473 01:14:16,640 --> 01:14:20,800 Speaker 1: of running doesn't necessarily impact the play action, but the formation, 1474 01:14:21,200 --> 01:14:24,680 Speaker 1: the blocking scheme, the timing of the play like I think, yeah, like, 1475 01:14:24,760 --> 01:14:27,519 Speaker 1: I think all those types of things when you put 1476 01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:29,400 Speaker 1: run personnel on the field and you're in a run 1477 01:14:29,479 --> 01:14:32,759 Speaker 1: formation and then you mimic a run with your offensive 1478 01:14:32,800 --> 01:14:34,960 Speaker 1: line Like that's how you sell play action, and that's 1479 01:14:34,960 --> 01:14:37,599 Speaker 1: what makes it so effective. So I think that there 1480 01:14:37,800 --> 01:14:39,320 Speaker 1: is a lot to be said for the fact that 1481 01:14:39,400 --> 01:14:42,320 Speaker 1: you gotta time up play action on first and second 1482 01:14:42,400 --> 01:14:45,920 Speaker 1: down with that sort of look to it that you 1483 01:14:46,080 --> 01:14:48,000 Speaker 1: it looks like you're running the football, but you're not. 1484 01:14:48,200 --> 01:14:50,520 Speaker 1: And I think that that's why it's been so successful. 1485 01:14:50,560 --> 01:14:55,680 Speaker 1: In the last couple of weeks. Matt's in Florida. What's up, Matt? Hi? 1486 01:14:56,040 --> 01:14:59,240 Speaker 1: First time, long time, Thank you. I moved down here 1487 01:14:59,240 --> 01:15:01,720 Speaker 1: about fifteen years to go to Florida. Um, and you 1488 01:15:01,800 --> 01:15:03,160 Speaker 1: guys have been keeping me in the loop, so I 1489 01:15:03,160 --> 01:15:07,040 Speaker 1: appreciate it. Where'd you move from? Um?

Maybe you moved into his house? 1492 01:15:12,240 --> 01:15:15,400 Speaker 1: Why'd you leave Paradise? My family moved down here. Okay, 1493 01:15:15,960 --> 01:15:17,360 Speaker 1: I was in high school. I didn't have a say 1494 01:15:17,400 --> 01:15:21,960 Speaker 1: in the matter. But uh, um, I'm calling because kind 1495 01:15:21,960 --> 01:15:23,920 Speaker 1: of last minute, I've been able to schedule a trip 1496 01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:25,280 Speaker 1: up there. I'm gonna be able to go see my 1497 01:15:25,320 --> 01:15:28,599 Speaker 1: first game at Gillette I'm really excited. Then I'm gonna 1498 01:15:28,600 --> 01:15:31,320 Speaker 1: be done in a week on the Cape with my 1499 01:15:31,400 --> 01:15:37,880 Speaker 1: girlfriend and hopefully fingers crossed, come back engaged. So wow, 1500 01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:41,560 Speaker 1: it up the hot top listening. I got engaged on 1501 01:15:41,600 --> 01:15:43,000 Speaker 1: the Cape? What do you got a whole plan? Does? She? 1502 01:15:43,120 --> 01:15:45,960 Speaker 1: Is she aware this is coming? Yeah? I mean we've 1503 01:15:46,000 --> 01:15:48,519 Speaker 1: been together for a ten years, so we've had a 1504 01:15:48,880 --> 01:15:54,320 Speaker 1: time kind of slack of antlimatic at this point, been three. 1505 01:15:56,520 --> 01:15:57,679 Speaker 1: Where are you gonna go on? Where are you gonna 1506 01:15:57,720 --> 01:15:59,479 Speaker 1: go on the Cape? You gotta spot picked out everything 1507 01:16:01,800 --> 01:16:05,040 Speaker 1: on sandwich and we're gonna be Fred to come over 1508 01:16:05,080 --> 01:16:07,040 Speaker 1: and help you out here, Fred, you should come over 1509 01:16:07,080 --> 01:16:09,720 Speaker 1: and give him your blessing. Yeah, I'll present the ring 1510 01:16:09,840 --> 01:16:18,200 Speaker 1: like Premima knocked out with Fred. So who do you like? Mac? Yeah? 1511 01:16:18,240 --> 01:16:19,800 Speaker 1: I know I was calling because I also wanted to 1512 01:16:19,840 --> 01:16:25,519 Speaker 1: get him Paul's pole here ride that favorite thing. I 1513 01:16:25,640 --> 01:16:27,840 Speaker 1: call in right after we get the report from Evan. 1514 01:16:27,960 --> 01:16:32,040 Speaker 1: But I am on team Mac. Okay, I think um now, 1515 01:16:32,120 --> 01:16:35,880 Speaker 1: Fred will definitely give you his blessing like Paul. I 1516 01:16:36,080 --> 01:16:39,479 Speaker 1: uh started having some mixed feelings after watching Zappy that game. 1517 01:16:39,600 --> 01:16:42,519 Speaker 1: But kind of what I've come to think is that 1518 01:16:43,120 --> 01:16:45,400 Speaker 1: for the first time a long time. I don't think 1519 01:16:45,520 --> 01:16:49,360 Speaker 1: Bill's main goal this year is winning. I think a 1520 01:16:49,439 --> 01:16:52,559 Speaker 1: lot of people kind of got that idea with Cam 1521 01:16:52,640 --> 01:16:55,720 Speaker 1: Newton and last year making to the playoffs. But I 1522 01:16:55,840 --> 01:16:57,920 Speaker 1: think if you look at you know, not going after 1523 01:16:58,000 --> 01:17:01,240 Speaker 1: an offensive coordinator, not bringing back you know, the old 1524 01:17:01,280 --> 01:17:04,479 Speaker 1: folks home of linebackers, and starting all these rookies and everything, 1525 01:17:04,600 --> 01:17:07,360 Speaker 1: I think he's his main goal was trying to get 1526 01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:10,640 Speaker 1: Mack to start doing some things different, and that's kind 1527 01:17:10,680 --> 01:17:13,280 Speaker 1: of what led to all the turnovers. And yeah, we'll 1528 01:17:13,320 --> 01:17:16,880 Speaker 1: see here going forward, but I think we got to 1529 01:17:16,880 --> 01:17:19,880 Speaker 1: give Max some time to make those mistakes, like Fred 1530 01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:23,000 Speaker 1: was saying, and started making the plays downfield. Interesting. All right, 1531 01:17:23,160 --> 01:17:27,439 Speaker 1: thanks Matt, good luck Matt, She says, yes, yeah, yeah, 1532 01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:29,639 Speaker 1: So I think he said that in an interesting way, 1533 01:17:30,400 --> 01:17:33,960 Speaker 1: and I don't necessarily agree with it literally that Bill's 1534 01:17:34,000 --> 01:17:37,519 Speaker 1: not interested in winning. I mean, obviously he's cares a 1535 01:17:37,560 --> 01:17:39,559 Speaker 1: lot about winning, but I do think that there's something 1536 01:17:39,600 --> 01:17:43,599 Speaker 1: to be said of there was a sort of change 1537 01:17:43,680 --> 01:17:47,720 Speaker 1: in direction with in terms of the personnel usage. Right. 1538 01:17:47,920 --> 01:17:50,200 Speaker 1: We talked about this a lot. They're using a lot 1539 01:17:50,400 --> 01:17:53,240 Speaker 1: more young players than they have now. It's not just 1540 01:17:53,479 --> 01:17:57,160 Speaker 1: because you know player X Y and Z is better 1541 01:17:57,240 --> 01:17:59,439 Speaker 1: than young player X Y and Z from the past. 1542 01:17:59,520 --> 01:18:01,200 Speaker 1: I think that part of it. I think Jack Jones 1543 01:18:01,320 --> 01:18:04,760 Speaker 1: is better than Jowan Williams as an example. Okay, but 1544 01:18:05,080 --> 01:18:07,080 Speaker 1: it's not just that. I think he's shown more of 1545 01:18:07,120 --> 01:18:09,920 Speaker 1: a willingness to say, these kids are gonna make some mistakes, 1546 01:18:09,960 --> 01:18:11,599 Speaker 1: but we're going to live through them and we're gonna 1547 01:18:11,640 --> 01:18:14,519 Speaker 1: be better off for them, much like the philosophy that 1548 01:18:14,600 --> 01:18:19,280 Speaker 1: Evan talked about offensively yesterday. With Mac Jones, you understand 1549 01:18:19,520 --> 01:18:21,360 Speaker 1: what needs to be done to get where you want 1550 01:18:21,400 --> 01:18:24,000 Speaker 1: to go ultimately, and in order to get there, you're 1551 01:18:24,040 --> 01:18:25,800 Speaker 1: gonna make mistakes along the way, and you might not 1552 01:18:25,880 --> 01:18:28,240 Speaker 1: be as good as you could be this year with 1553 01:18:28,439 --> 01:18:31,559 Speaker 1: Mac Jones figuring out how to make these big plays 1554 01:18:31,600 --> 01:18:35,040 Speaker 1: without turning the ball over. But I think Bill hopes 1555 01:18:35,080 --> 01:18:37,400 Speaker 1: down the road, I will have an offense that's capable 1556 01:18:37,439 --> 01:18:40,599 Speaker 1: of playing with anybody, not just the bad teams. Yeah. 1557 01:18:40,800 --> 01:18:44,600 Speaker 1: I still go back to the Saban thing and he 1558 01:18:44,720 --> 01:18:48,160 Speaker 1: did it might play defense anymore much before Bill, because 1559 01:18:48,240 --> 01:18:50,479 Speaker 1: I think Bill, I think he's actually asked about it. 1560 01:18:50,640 --> 01:18:52,679 Speaker 1: Maybe last year someone asked him. And you think Phil 1561 01:18:52,800 --> 01:18:55,160 Speaker 1: I think Phil Perry. He didn't really like the like 1562 01:18:55,280 --> 01:18:57,479 Speaker 1: the bristol at it. Yeah, he said, oh well we 1563 01:18:57,520 --> 01:18:59,679 Speaker 1: want to use your defense. Well, we want a Super 1564 01:18:59,720 --> 01:19:02,160 Speaker 1: Bowl thirteen to three, you know, not too long ago, right, 1565 01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:04,560 Speaker 1: you know, stuff like that. Scored one hundred points in 1566 01:19:04,600 --> 01:19:06,800 Speaker 1: the two games to get to that, right but right. 1567 01:19:07,040 --> 01:19:10,439 Speaker 1: But I do think that he's kind of coming to 1568 01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:14,679 Speaker 1: that realization a little bit more now. And the sort 1569 01:19:14,720 --> 01:19:17,360 Speaker 1: of the blueprint that you look at. It's not necessarily 1570 01:19:17,400 --> 01:19:19,280 Speaker 1: that you can't win in the meantime or you can't 1571 01:19:19,360 --> 01:19:21,720 Speaker 1: be competitive in the meantime, but you look at what 1572 01:19:22,120 --> 01:19:24,640 Speaker 1: you know Buffalo did or what Kansas City did, and 1573 01:19:24,880 --> 01:19:27,439 Speaker 1: sort of this build up with the young quarterback where 1574 01:19:27,760 --> 01:19:30,960 Speaker 1: really you're looking to hit the ceiling and like you're 1575 01:19:31,080 --> 01:19:33,519 Speaker 1: three or four of that rookie contract. So we're in 1576 01:19:33,560 --> 01:19:35,400 Speaker 1: your two right now for Max. So this is kind 1577 01:19:35,400 --> 01:19:38,320 Speaker 1: of like the appetizer, right, this is this is the setup. 1578 01:19:38,640 --> 01:19:40,960 Speaker 1: Now next offseason, you got a bunch of money again 1579 01:19:41,160 --> 01:19:43,600 Speaker 1: in free agency, you can make some more moves to 1580 01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:47,240 Speaker 1: fill the holes or maybe upgrade certain places of your roster, 1581 01:19:47,600 --> 01:19:49,840 Speaker 1: and yours three and four is really where you want 1582 01:19:49,840 --> 01:19:53,040 Speaker 1: to be at that peak of maximizing Mac Jones. So 1583 01:19:53,439 --> 01:19:56,679 Speaker 1: this you're not necessarily I don't think in the building 1584 01:19:56,720 --> 01:19:58,479 Speaker 1: they would say it's not a we're not trying to 1585 01:19:58,520 --> 01:20:00,720 Speaker 1: win or we're not trying to contend. I wouldn't take 1586 01:20:00,760 --> 01:20:02,960 Speaker 1: it super literally, right, but I do think that there 1587 01:20:03,040 --> 01:20:05,439 Speaker 1: is it's a it's a rebuild, so obviously it's going 1588 01:20:05,520 --> 01:20:08,439 Speaker 1: to take a couple of years. Yeah, let's go to 1589 01:20:09,320 --> 01:20:14,719 Speaker 1: Bailey in Connecticut. Zappy's up, Bailey, because you're not getting 1590 01:20:14,760 --> 01:20:16,800 Speaker 1: the one reps. I didn't think Mac looked that good 1591 01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:18,760 Speaker 1: at practice, and I don't want to be QB two. 1592 01:20:19,320 --> 01:20:24,120 Speaker 1: Sorry Bailey. Hey there, guys, Um, I'm gonna say right now, 1593 01:20:24,280 --> 01:20:28,200 Speaker 1: go with Mac absolutely. Um. I think last week showed 1594 01:20:28,600 --> 01:20:31,360 Speaker 1: that we are, you know, still a system team where 1595 01:20:31,400 --> 01:20:33,720 Speaker 1: our play calling was looking great last week, probably the 1596 01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:36,280 Speaker 1: best it's ever looked this season. We were really really 1597 01:20:36,520 --> 01:20:39,599 Speaker 1: splitting that coverage and we were blocking really really well, 1598 01:20:39,680 --> 01:20:41,439 Speaker 1: so it opened up a lot of that play action 1599 01:20:42,040 --> 01:20:43,840 Speaker 1: and so I think, you know, we're looking really really 1600 01:20:43,880 --> 01:20:49,639 Speaker 1: solid going in this season. Okay, thanks, thanks Bailey, appreciate 1601 01:20:49,760 --> 01:20:55,160 Speaker 1: the call. Let's go to Dwayne in Boston. What's up Dwayne? Hello? Hey, UM, 1602 01:20:55,280 --> 01:21:00,360 Speaker 1: I have a question for you. Um, over the last 1603 01:21:00,479 --> 01:21:05,160 Speaker 1: eight games that mac Jones has played, including their playoff 1604 01:21:05,240 --> 01:21:09,519 Speaker 1: loss to Buffalo, mac Jones has only won two of 1605 01:21:09,600 --> 01:21:13,280 Speaker 1: those the last eight games that he started. Can you 1606 01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:15,400 Speaker 1: take a few minutes to just kind of talk about 1607 01:21:15,439 --> 01:21:18,519 Speaker 1: what has gone wrong during the last eight starts that 1608 01:21:18,960 --> 01:21:21,400 Speaker 1: mac Jones has had, and what and how you expect 1609 01:21:21,720 --> 01:21:24,519 Speaker 1: the things to improve or get worse in the next 1610 01:21:24,640 --> 01:21:29,120 Speaker 1: eight starts that mac Jones had. That's a good question. 1611 01:21:29,400 --> 01:21:31,479 Speaker 1: I would need to know the opponents. No, But like 1612 01:21:31,560 --> 01:21:34,240 Speaker 1: I would ask you my simple, snarky answer to what 1613 01:21:34,320 --> 01:21:36,640 Speaker 1: went wrong in the last eight games, the six of 1614 01:21:36,680 --> 01:21:39,400 Speaker 1: them that he lost, is they played against good teams. Yeah, 1615 01:21:40,400 --> 01:21:42,920 Speaker 1: but like there's no there's no doubt in my mind 1616 01:21:43,080 --> 01:21:44,680 Speaker 1: that the Patriots would be three and three if mac 1617 01:21:44,760 --> 01:21:47,760 Speaker 1: Jones played all six games. I think that you could 1618 01:21:47,760 --> 01:21:49,840 Speaker 1: make an argument that they be four and two, Yeah, 1619 01:21:49,840 --> 01:21:51,920 Speaker 1: because I think they might have beaten three and Bay. 1620 01:21:52,120 --> 01:21:54,519 Speaker 1: Now the whole game changes, But I'm just talking about 1621 01:21:54,520 --> 01:21:57,120 Speaker 1: the way that game unfolded. If mac Jones played, they 1622 01:21:57,160 --> 01:22:01,320 Speaker 1: win the way that game went down. But well, I 1623 01:22:01,360 --> 01:22:04,479 Speaker 1: guess I don't mean they interrupt you, No, No, I'm 1624 01:22:04,479 --> 01:22:06,519 Speaker 1: just saying they lost. I mean, they lost a Buffalo twice, 1625 01:22:06,560 --> 01:22:08,760 Speaker 1: they lost to Baltimore, they lost to Miami twice. Like, 1626 01:22:08,840 --> 01:22:12,240 Speaker 1: they lost to good teams. And the games that they've 1627 01:22:12,479 --> 01:22:17,480 Speaker 1: won have been against the Cleveland's, the Detroits, Yeah, the Jacksonvilles. 1628 01:22:17,640 --> 01:22:19,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I hate it. I hate saying it, but 1629 01:22:20,160 --> 01:22:22,320 Speaker 1: that's that's what it's been. But I also think the 1630 01:22:22,479 --> 01:22:25,760 Speaker 1: defense fell apart. And maybe they weren't that good to 1631 01:22:25,840 --> 01:22:28,479 Speaker 1: begin with, but right they couldn't stop a cold. But 1632 01:22:28,560 --> 01:22:30,439 Speaker 1: you will say, like, can you just, like you know 1633 01:22:30,520 --> 01:22:32,720 Speaker 1: how I told you if the Jets end up being 1634 01:22:32,800 --> 01:22:35,200 Speaker 1: really good in two weeks and the Jets and like 1635 01:22:36,160 --> 01:22:38,280 Speaker 1: they beat the Patriots, I tell you can blom me 1636 01:22:38,400 --> 01:22:42,400 Speaker 1: to death because I don't see it happening. Okay, can 1637 01:22:42,479 --> 01:22:44,160 Speaker 1: you just say, like the next time they play a 1638 01:22:44,200 --> 01:22:46,680 Speaker 1: really good offense, if the offense, like, don't tell me 1639 01:22:46,720 --> 01:22:50,880 Speaker 1: the Patriots defense fell apart like they did against Baltimore. Like, 1640 01:22:51,200 --> 01:22:53,479 Speaker 1: let's not just say like that the defense felt. That's 1641 01:22:53,520 --> 01:22:55,840 Speaker 1: what when you play a good offense, the other team's 1642 01:22:55,840 --> 01:22:58,280 Speaker 1: gonna score. It's getting back to Evans thing about Nick 1643 01:22:58,320 --> 01:23:01,400 Speaker 1: Saban in defense, and I think it took that Monday 1644 01:23:01,479 --> 01:23:05,120 Speaker 1: night game in twenty twenty when Bill told Lewis Riddick 1645 01:23:05,200 --> 01:23:09,120 Speaker 1: and Brian Greasy that Josh Allen ain't all that anyone 1646 01:23:09,160 --> 01:23:10,960 Speaker 1: out and scored thirty eight of the most easy points 1647 01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:12,840 Speaker 1: in the first three quarters of the game. But and 1648 01:23:12,960 --> 01:23:14,880 Speaker 1: I think he said, yeah, I think I might. I 1649 01:23:14,960 --> 01:23:16,479 Speaker 1: might be wrong about that. I thought I could just 1650 01:23:16,520 --> 01:23:19,680 Speaker 1: stop anybody with my schemes. I can't absolutely. But you know, 1651 01:23:20,000 --> 01:23:22,880 Speaker 1: it's one thing to not to give up points in 1652 01:23:22,920 --> 01:23:25,840 Speaker 1: the NFL, everybody does it. It's another thing to not 1653 01:23:26,320 --> 01:23:28,880 Speaker 1: have the other team punt. In two games. You know, 1654 01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:32,280 Speaker 1: they just didn't. They couldn't do anything. You know, they 1655 01:23:32,400 --> 01:23:36,000 Speaker 1: really they fell apart. And a lot of it is 1656 01:23:36,080 --> 01:23:38,439 Speaker 1: they played better teams, There's no doubt about it. But 1657 01:23:39,200 --> 01:23:41,080 Speaker 1: you know, I don't see other I didn't see other 1658 01:23:41,160 --> 01:23:44,640 Speaker 1: teams not, you know, able to force a punt. I'm 1659 01:23:44,680 --> 01:23:46,960 Speaker 1: not going to get fixated on whether or not they punted. 1660 01:23:47,040 --> 01:23:49,400 Speaker 1: I mean, the next game the Bills played, the Rams 1661 01:23:49,439 --> 01:23:51,400 Speaker 1: didn't make them punt either. Like, I'm not going to 1662 01:23:51,479 --> 01:23:55,040 Speaker 1: fixate on the whole punting thing in general. When you 1663 01:23:55,080 --> 01:23:57,799 Speaker 1: see the Chiefs play, their offense plays well, the Bills 1664 01:23:57,880 --> 01:24:00,200 Speaker 1: their offense plays well. Like there you know, last your 1665 01:24:00,280 --> 01:24:03,720 Speaker 1: Dallas's offense played well virtually every game. Like there there 1666 01:24:03,760 --> 01:24:05,680 Speaker 1: are teams that just have offense. I don't care what 1667 01:24:05,720 --> 01:24:08,000 Speaker 1: you do on defense, you're gonna give up points and yards. Yeah, 1668 01:24:08,760 --> 01:24:11,599 Speaker 1: I didn't fall apart defensively. You got beat by better personnel. 1669 01:24:11,760 --> 01:24:14,799 Speaker 1: But earlier in the season, like you said, against Dallas 1670 01:24:14,880 --> 01:24:17,560 Speaker 1: and against Tampa Bay, the defense didn't fall apart. No, 1671 01:24:17,880 --> 01:24:20,320 Speaker 1: they did defense. They gave up over five hundred yards 1672 01:24:20,360 --> 01:24:23,639 Speaker 1: and thirty something points. This is what I'm saying. When 1673 01:24:23,640 --> 01:24:26,800 Speaker 1: you played good offenses, you couldn't stop them. Well, they 1674 01:24:26,920 --> 01:24:30,120 Speaker 1: kept them in the game against Dallas, but it was 1675 01:24:30,240 --> 01:24:32,400 Speaker 1: fairly close, wasn't It was an overtime game, but the 1676 01:24:32,479 --> 01:24:34,960 Speaker 1: other team moved the ball and scored at will Friend. Yeah, 1677 01:24:35,640 --> 01:24:37,400 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't think Dallas punted it too 1678 01:24:37,439 --> 01:24:40,040 Speaker 1: many times in that game. Well to use your like 1679 01:24:40,200 --> 01:24:41,880 Speaker 1: be all end all. If your punt, that means you 1680 01:24:42,040 --> 01:24:44,240 Speaker 1: played defense. And I think you're right, Paul, like to 1681 01:24:44,320 --> 01:24:46,200 Speaker 1: the general point of like just playing better teams, and 1682 01:24:46,280 --> 01:24:48,120 Speaker 1: but like, why can't they beat those better teams. I 1683 01:24:48,200 --> 01:24:50,320 Speaker 1: think this offseason they showed you a little bit that 1684 01:24:50,400 --> 01:24:52,120 Speaker 1: I think they just need to get faster. They need 1685 01:24:52,200 --> 01:24:55,000 Speaker 1: more athleticism, and that's why I'm there. That was the 1686 01:24:55,400 --> 01:24:58,400 Speaker 1: motivation year from you know, from Macro this spring, like 1687 01:24:58,520 --> 01:24:59,680 Speaker 1: you know, we wanted to get faster. I mean, just 1688 01:24:59,720 --> 01:25:04,160 Speaker 1: look at all of them can run, and all of 1689 01:25:04,240 --> 01:25:07,759 Speaker 1: them are are contributing now and stepping right into the lineup, 1690 01:25:07,800 --> 01:25:09,679 Speaker 1: and they're needed to be more of that. If there've 1691 01:25:09,680 --> 01:25:12,240 Speaker 1: been more of that in twenty eighteen twenty nineteen, you know, 1692 01:25:12,280 --> 01:25:14,720 Speaker 1: then we might as Fred's points. Maybe because you you're 1693 01:25:14,760 --> 01:25:18,760 Speaker 1: a little younger, maybe you won't wear down. And that's 1694 01:25:18,800 --> 01:25:21,640 Speaker 1: another thing to say, like Judean usage down a little bit. 1695 01:25:21,720 --> 01:25:24,200 Speaker 1: So I mean you see little elements here and there 1696 01:25:24,479 --> 01:25:26,360 Speaker 1: of trying to avoid what happened last year. But I 1697 01:25:26,400 --> 01:25:28,360 Speaker 1: mean the more I hear from you know, you talk 1698 01:25:28,400 --> 01:25:31,080 Speaker 1: to people who are like the same place I am, where, yeah, 1699 01:25:31,120 --> 01:25:33,280 Speaker 1: the defense looks really good, the coverage is man, they're 1700 01:25:33,360 --> 01:25:35,920 Speaker 1: right on top of everything. But that's wait, that's wait 1701 01:25:36,080 --> 01:25:37,760 Speaker 1: till after Thanksgiving we'll see it, which is just a 1702 01:25:37,840 --> 01:25:40,120 Speaker 1: weird place to be because usually you felt like, all right, 1703 01:25:40,200 --> 01:25:42,639 Speaker 1: these bad games in October November, all right, they're figuring 1704 01:25:42,680 --> 01:25:44,760 Speaker 1: it out there. But but after Thanksgiving we'll have it, 1705 01:25:44,840 --> 01:25:47,000 Speaker 1: and it's been the reverse of that. So I think 1706 01:25:47,040 --> 01:25:49,599 Speaker 1: we're all a little bit, you know, trepidatious about what's 1707 01:25:49,640 --> 01:25:52,600 Speaker 1: gonna happen when you fact you're not gonna you're not 1708 01:25:52,680 --> 01:25:55,559 Speaker 1: gonna you're not gonna shut down Kansas City and you're 1709 01:25:55,560 --> 01:25:58,400 Speaker 1: not gonna shut down the bills. But a stop here 1710 01:25:58,479 --> 01:26:00,639 Speaker 1: or there is what you know. It's like that tennis match. 1711 01:26:00,920 --> 01:26:03,120 Speaker 1: Can you break the serve once but so that you 1712 01:26:03,160 --> 01:26:05,800 Speaker 1: can get up. They couldn't really slow down Indianapolis if 1713 01:26:05,840 --> 01:26:08,719 Speaker 1: they didn't even have a quarter Millie. They fell apart. Okay, 1714 01:26:08,880 --> 01:26:10,920 Speaker 1: you can keep saying they fell apart. I'm telling you, 1715 01:26:11,000 --> 01:26:13,600 Speaker 1: Jarathan Taylor is better than them. Yeah, I think I 1716 01:26:13,640 --> 01:26:16,240 Speaker 1: don't think they fell apart. I think they got beat 1717 01:26:16,280 --> 01:26:18,400 Speaker 1: by a better player. I think to Paul's point, and 1718 01:26:18,439 --> 01:26:20,559 Speaker 1: kind of reminds me of the conversation about the offensive line, 1719 01:26:20,640 --> 01:26:23,439 Speaker 1: where everyone's like the offensive line this and that, it's 1720 01:26:23,479 --> 01:26:26,040 Speaker 1: like yes, to Paul's point, he keeps saying about this 1721 01:26:26,360 --> 01:26:28,840 Speaker 1: the offensive line. Each of them individually, they're gonna have 1722 01:26:28,840 --> 01:26:30,680 Speaker 1: plays where they could beat It's going to happen. The 1723 01:26:30,760 --> 01:26:32,679 Speaker 1: defense is going to get scored on. It's going to happen. 1724 01:26:33,040 --> 01:26:36,000 Speaker 1: But I think the main issue the offense not being 1725 01:26:36,040 --> 01:26:38,200 Speaker 1: able to convert in the red zone. Like all these 1726 01:26:38,280 --> 01:26:41,160 Speaker 1: field goals, I'm over it, Like how you can't compete 1727 01:26:41,200 --> 01:26:42,960 Speaker 1: with the Bills. You can play a great defense all 1728 01:26:43,000 --> 01:26:44,360 Speaker 1: you want, the Bills are going to score, so you 1729 01:26:44,439 --> 01:26:46,200 Speaker 1: need to score and the field goals aren't going to 1730 01:26:46,240 --> 01:26:49,240 Speaker 1: cut it. Yeah, Oh that's like I think it's just 1731 01:26:49,400 --> 01:26:51,880 Speaker 1: not it just also like you know, we used to 1732 01:26:51,920 --> 01:26:54,519 Speaker 1: be in this position, right because they had Brady and 1733 01:26:54,960 --> 01:26:57,519 Speaker 1: they had the offense every single year. So the Patriots 1734 01:26:57,560 --> 01:26:59,040 Speaker 1: used to be in this position, and every team that 1735 01:26:59,080 --> 01:27:01,920 Speaker 1: always used to beat the Patriots were going for it 1736 01:27:02,000 --> 01:27:04,320 Speaker 1: on fourth down. We're pedal to the medal or the 1737 01:27:04,400 --> 01:27:08,040 Speaker 1: whole game, putting pressure on New England to keep scoring. 1738 01:27:08,160 --> 01:27:11,360 Speaker 1: Like I always go back to the Eagles Super Bowl 1739 01:27:12,040 --> 01:27:15,280 Speaker 1: second one, seventeen Super Bowl right where you know, it's 1740 01:27:15,360 --> 01:27:18,080 Speaker 1: it's the Philly Special. It's going for it when they 1741 01:27:18,160 --> 01:27:20,400 Speaker 1: need to go for it on fourth down. It's taking 1742 01:27:20,560 --> 01:27:24,000 Speaker 1: risks on offense because they knew that Brady's gonna throw 1743 01:27:24,040 --> 01:27:26,679 Speaker 1: for five hundred and we're gonna have to be able 1744 01:27:26,720 --> 01:27:28,920 Speaker 1: to score forty points to win this game. And I 1745 01:27:29,120 --> 01:27:31,559 Speaker 1: really feel like with Josh Allen. I'm not talking about 1746 01:27:31,760 --> 01:27:33,519 Speaker 1: the league as a whole, because I think there are 1747 01:27:33,640 --> 01:27:37,000 Speaker 1: games like in Cleveland, like this Monday night game against 1748 01:27:37,040 --> 01:27:39,439 Speaker 1: the Bears, where the Patriots can probably win this game 1749 01:27:39,479 --> 01:27:42,880 Speaker 1: ten to three with ten points by their defense, quite frankly, right, Like, 1750 01:27:42,960 --> 01:27:44,720 Speaker 1: I really feel like they could do that against a 1751 01:27:44,760 --> 01:27:47,599 Speaker 1: lot of these teams. But the team that you're trying 1752 01:27:47,600 --> 01:27:50,479 Speaker 1: to compete with is the Bills, and Josh Allen is 1753 01:27:50,920 --> 01:27:53,360 Speaker 1: a cyborg and you are not going to stop him, 1754 01:27:53,400 --> 01:27:56,200 Speaker 1: just like people couldn't stop Tom Brady. So he's gonna 1755 01:27:56,240 --> 01:27:58,800 Speaker 1: get thirty, like he's gonna hit thirty. And the only 1756 01:27:58,840 --> 01:28:02,120 Speaker 1: way you're gonna beat Buffalo in a neutral game, no 1757 01:28:02,400 --> 01:28:07,560 Speaker 1: no bomb cyclones, no blizzards, no zero degree weather like 1758 01:28:07,880 --> 01:28:10,280 Speaker 1: in a neutral game, the only way that you're going 1759 01:28:10,320 --> 01:28:13,000 Speaker 1: to beat Buffalo is if you can hang more points 1760 01:28:13,080 --> 01:28:16,160 Speaker 1: on the scoreboard than Daycao. And that means you're not 1761 01:28:16,240 --> 01:28:18,840 Speaker 1: going to beat them because we don't have a cyborg. 1762 01:28:19,600 --> 01:28:22,240 Speaker 1: Well as of now, well, I'll give you like we're 1763 01:28:22,280 --> 01:28:23,960 Speaker 1: not gonna score every time we get the ball. No, 1764 01:28:24,080 --> 01:28:26,719 Speaker 1: but I'm going to dovetail it back to the analytic thing. Okay, 1765 01:28:26,920 --> 01:28:30,040 Speaker 1: I have been very complimentary of Belichick's decision to kick 1766 01:28:30,080 --> 01:28:32,519 Speaker 1: a field goal on fourth and one from the nineteen 1767 01:28:32,560 --> 01:28:35,439 Speaker 1: yard line to Evans point against Cleveland in a game 1768 01:28:35,520 --> 01:28:38,280 Speaker 1: that at that time I would have been very comfortable 1769 01:28:38,320 --> 01:28:40,559 Speaker 1: saying I can win this game. Thirteen three ten, three, 1770 01:28:41,160 --> 01:28:46,920 Speaker 1: seventeen ten, something like that. I'll bet anything that Bill 1771 01:28:47,760 --> 01:28:53,000 Speaker 1: on first and goal from the one is thinking against Buffalo. First, 1772 01:28:53,040 --> 01:28:55,040 Speaker 1: try to get a touchdown, Well, we'll go for it. 1773 01:28:55,120 --> 01:28:58,720 Speaker 1: And fourth and one, yeah, yeah, Because to Tamara's point, 1774 01:28:58,760 --> 01:29:00,680 Speaker 1: field goals aren't going to cut it again Buffalo. Right, 1775 01:29:00,880 --> 01:29:02,160 Speaker 1: I'm not going to go three at a time and 1776 01:29:02,240 --> 01:29:04,320 Speaker 1: get to the thirties. But if I could get seven 1777 01:29:04,400 --> 01:29:06,800 Speaker 1: on the board, and maybe he makes one of those 1778 01:29:06,840 --> 01:29:09,840 Speaker 1: mistakes that he's still prone to make occasionally, because he 1779 01:29:09,960 --> 01:29:13,479 Speaker 1: tries every play. He never pulls the plug. He always 1780 01:29:13,520 --> 01:29:15,639 Speaker 1: tries to make a play, and all of a sudden 1781 01:29:15,680 --> 01:29:17,559 Speaker 1: you get him wrapped up and he tries to throw one. 1782 01:29:17,640 --> 01:29:20,000 Speaker 1: He's throw a little off target. Jack Jones picks it off, 1783 01:29:20,640 --> 01:29:22,400 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, you gotta lead. And that's 1784 01:29:22,560 --> 01:29:25,760 Speaker 1: the Patriot's secret sauce. Make make make the opponent Chase. 1785 01:29:25,840 --> 01:29:27,479 Speaker 1: I thought of the same thing when Evan brought up 1786 01:29:27,800 --> 01:29:30,720 Speaker 1: Super Bowl fifty two with you know, just always being 1787 01:29:30,760 --> 01:29:34,120 Speaker 1: impressed with what the Eagles did, their aggressiveness and everything. 1788 01:29:34,200 --> 01:29:37,559 Speaker 1: Evan said, I just think it's funny now that we're 1789 01:29:37,760 --> 01:29:40,400 Speaker 1: killing Dan Campbell for going for all the fourth downs, 1790 01:29:40,439 --> 01:29:45,479 Speaker 1: and rightly so. But it's just a difference, Yeah, just definitely, 1791 01:29:45,640 --> 01:29:48,000 Speaker 1: Like I would never tell somebody down fourth and nine 1792 01:29:48,120 --> 01:29:50,200 Speaker 1: from like field goal range to say that it's a 1793 01:29:50,280 --> 01:29:51,840 Speaker 1: better chance to go for it the fourth and nine, 1794 01:29:51,960 --> 01:29:55,840 Speaker 1: fourth and one, like the Philly Special. Yeah, by all means. 1795 01:29:55,920 --> 01:29:57,519 Speaker 1: But if I kind of questioned that at the time, 1796 01:29:57,560 --> 01:30:00,240 Speaker 1: to be honest, Yeah, but if it was Brady, I mean, 1797 01:30:00,280 --> 01:30:02,200 Speaker 1: you just like you do understand it a little bit more. 1798 01:30:02,240 --> 01:30:04,000 Speaker 1: It's just things have changed now, Like I'm not going 1799 01:30:04,080 --> 01:30:06,320 Speaker 1: to go to a game with Brady expecting this is 1800 01:30:06,360 --> 01:30:08,280 Speaker 1: the day that Brady's have an off day. I don't 1801 01:30:08,280 --> 01:30:11,840 Speaker 1: know if you stupid aggressive against you know, these Patriots now, 1802 01:30:11,920 --> 01:30:13,639 Speaker 1: but you know, things have changed if you go back 1803 01:30:13,680 --> 01:30:17,640 Speaker 1: to around twenty eighteen, and it probably predates that. Like 1804 01:30:17,720 --> 01:30:19,800 Speaker 1: I know, people have done some studies from you know, 1805 01:30:19,840 --> 01:30:22,559 Speaker 1: the Kevin Falk fourth and two play on that shows 1806 01:30:22,600 --> 01:30:25,360 Speaker 1: that Belichick has really become more conservative like since that 1807 01:30:25,520 --> 01:30:29,000 Speaker 1: game in general. Yeah, but I think it's more to 1808 01:30:29,160 --> 01:30:32,479 Speaker 1: me at least been more recently, doesn't play Payton Manning anymore. Yeah, 1809 01:30:32,600 --> 01:30:38,479 Speaker 1: So around twenty eighteen something flipped with their decision making 1810 01:30:38,680 --> 01:30:43,160 Speaker 1: and plus territory or an impota territory on fourth down, 1811 01:30:43,439 --> 01:30:46,720 Speaker 1: where now they you're in and year out, are one 1812 01:30:46,760 --> 01:30:49,960 Speaker 1: of the most conservative fourth down teams in the league, 1813 01:30:50,080 --> 01:30:54,719 Speaker 1: either punting or kicking on fourth down and opponent territory 1814 01:30:54,920 --> 01:30:59,080 Speaker 1: on pretty much every fourth down decision. But earlier in 1815 01:30:59,160 --> 01:31:02,120 Speaker 1: the year, especially in that Baltimore game, they did go 1816 01:31:02,280 --> 01:31:04,160 Speaker 1: for it on fourth down a couple of times. So 1817 01:31:04,320 --> 01:31:07,960 Speaker 1: maybe what it really boils down to is Bill's trust 1818 01:31:08,240 --> 01:31:10,920 Speaker 1: in the offense, in his trust in the quarterback, and 1819 01:31:11,080 --> 01:31:14,479 Speaker 1: his more maybe stronger trust in the defense and in 1820 01:31:14,520 --> 01:31:17,200 Speaker 1: the special teams to do their jobs versus the quarterback 1821 01:31:17,280 --> 01:31:20,479 Speaker 1: doing his in the offense doing theirs. So hopefully as 1822 01:31:20,600 --> 01:31:23,840 Speaker 1: Mac kind of matures here, that trust grows a little 1823 01:31:23,880 --> 01:31:26,880 Speaker 1: bit that he will be more aggressive, but notoriously. And 1824 01:31:26,920 --> 01:31:28,800 Speaker 1: it's funny because you look at all these charts that 1825 01:31:29,760 --> 01:31:32,960 Speaker 1: kind of grade coaches in those situations, and quite frankly, 1826 01:31:32,960 --> 01:31:35,559 Speaker 1: a lot of the coaches that are conservative or older coaches. Right, 1827 01:31:35,640 --> 01:31:38,040 Speaker 1: it's Bill, it's Pete Carroll, Like it's like these are 1828 01:31:38,040 --> 01:31:40,000 Speaker 1: the guys that are near the bottom. It was Bruce 1829 01:31:40,040 --> 01:31:44,200 Speaker 1: Arians before that turned over in Tampa Bay. So I 1830 01:31:44,320 --> 01:31:47,160 Speaker 1: do think that there is a difference there in terms of, Okay, 1831 01:31:47,479 --> 01:31:49,920 Speaker 1: what Brandon Staley or Dan Campbell or some of these 1832 01:31:50,000 --> 01:31:52,720 Speaker 1: younger coaches are willing to do versus what Bill is 1833 01:31:52,760 --> 01:31:56,160 Speaker 1: willing to do on fourth down. And again, it comes 1834 01:31:56,200 --> 01:31:58,200 Speaker 1: back to the underdog thing for me, like you're no 1835 01:31:58,400 --> 01:32:01,840 Speaker 1: longer the favorite going into a lot of these games. 1836 01:32:01,920 --> 01:32:03,880 Speaker 1: You're favorite against the Bears, but you're not going to 1837 01:32:03,920 --> 01:32:07,160 Speaker 1: be favorite either time against Buffalo. You're not gonna be 1838 01:32:07,280 --> 01:32:09,640 Speaker 1: favored most likely. You know in some of these other 1839 01:32:09,720 --> 01:32:11,800 Speaker 1: games later on in the season. You know, I don't 1840 01:32:11,840 --> 01:32:14,720 Speaker 1: know Arizona see how they do, or Vegas, but I 1841 01:32:14,800 --> 01:32:16,920 Speaker 1: don't know if you're gonna be favorite in Vegas on 1842 01:32:17,000 --> 01:32:20,280 Speaker 1: the road late in the season. Those games you have 1843 01:32:20,479 --> 01:32:23,720 Speaker 1: to approach a little bit differently, like the Eagles did 1844 01:32:23,800 --> 01:32:26,880 Speaker 1: in Super Bowl fifty two, where you know, now you 1845 01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:30,400 Speaker 1: are the Eagles, you are no longer the Patriots. You're 1846 01:32:31,479 --> 01:32:34,479 Speaker 1: about the confidence in the offense or the defense. Because 1847 01:32:34,680 --> 01:32:37,960 Speaker 1: I think you can make an argument if you don't 1848 01:32:38,000 --> 01:32:40,040 Speaker 1: have a ton of faith in your defense, you're like 1849 01:32:40,439 --> 01:32:44,080 Speaker 1: fourth and three from the opponent forty, Well, let's get 1850 01:32:44,160 --> 01:32:45,720 Speaker 1: Jake to knock one out at the five and that 1851 01:32:45,880 --> 01:32:49,800 Speaker 1: really helps the defense. Yeah, you know, right, you know, 1852 01:32:49,880 --> 01:32:51,920 Speaker 1: if you really feel confident in the offense, like I 1853 01:32:52,000 --> 01:32:54,080 Speaker 1: could totally hear it the other way. Like I think 1854 01:32:54,080 --> 01:32:56,160 Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay one when they kicked the long field 1855 01:32:56,200 --> 01:32:59,040 Speaker 1: goal was a lack of faith in the offense at 1856 01:32:59,120 --> 01:33:00,720 Speaker 1: the time. I don't think he felt like they would 1857 01:33:00,720 --> 01:33:03,240 Speaker 1: get it because they were miserable on third down that night, 1858 01:33:03,560 --> 01:33:06,080 Speaker 1: and he was looking at that as why why am 1859 01:33:06,120 --> 01:33:08,280 Speaker 1: I going to give them the ball here? You know 1860 01:33:08,320 --> 01:33:10,880 Speaker 1: I have a chance to well, even the fourth and 1861 01:33:10,960 --> 01:33:15,559 Speaker 1: two play that I gave the ball back to Peyton Manning, 1862 01:33:15,680 --> 01:33:18,200 Speaker 1: that was the game's over. Yeah, I know he is, 1863 01:33:18,439 --> 01:33:20,920 Speaker 1: you know, emphatically pushed back on that. But that's undeniable. 1864 01:33:20,960 --> 01:33:22,880 Speaker 1: Of course it is. He knew that Peyton Manning gets 1865 01:33:22,920 --> 01:33:24,920 Speaker 1: the ball back. We ain't stop whether it's whether they 1866 01:33:25,000 --> 01:33:28,120 Speaker 1: punt it and it's sixty yards that way, or he's 1867 01:33:28,120 --> 01:33:30,320 Speaker 1: got to figure it out. It's a little bit different 1868 01:33:30,360 --> 01:33:32,720 Speaker 1: when you're talking about like you know, let's say the 1869 01:33:32,800 --> 01:33:35,639 Speaker 1: thirty to the forty yard line, but when you're inside 1870 01:33:35,720 --> 01:33:39,120 Speaker 1: the five, the whole idea, the whole analytics community is 1871 01:33:39,160 --> 01:33:42,840 Speaker 1: so forgoing it in those situations because the other team 1872 01:33:42,880 --> 01:33:45,160 Speaker 1: then has to drive the ball ninety eight yards. Right, 1873 01:33:45,240 --> 01:33:47,760 Speaker 1: So then the idea is Lamart Jackson throws a pick 1874 01:33:47,800 --> 01:33:49,840 Speaker 1: in the hand zone, right, So then the idea is 1875 01:33:50,240 --> 01:33:53,360 Speaker 1: is that, you know, okay, you're giving them on a 1876 01:33:53,439 --> 01:33:56,240 Speaker 1: long field, you get another quick three and out or 1877 01:33:56,240 --> 01:33:58,559 Speaker 1: a quick stop. Now they're punting, and now you're right 1878 01:33:58,800 --> 01:34:02,400 Speaker 1: right back on first. Right. That's the theory, right, That's 1879 01:34:02,520 --> 01:34:06,280 Speaker 1: the sort of equation that they think of. It's like, okay, well, 1880 01:34:06,520 --> 01:34:08,720 Speaker 1: if we do our job on defense, then even if 1881 01:34:08,760 --> 01:34:10,920 Speaker 1: we don't get it, then we're going to get the 1882 01:34:10,960 --> 01:34:13,240 Speaker 1: ball back first and ten from the forty eight yard line. 1883 01:34:13,320 --> 01:34:15,400 Speaker 1: Let's call it, and we're right back in business. You know. 1884 01:34:15,479 --> 01:34:18,000 Speaker 1: That's the idea of it. And I think that the 1885 01:34:18,120 --> 01:34:20,320 Speaker 1: Patriots need to be more like that. I'm not saying 1886 01:34:20,360 --> 01:34:22,400 Speaker 1: they need to be brand Stanley or Dan Campbell with it, 1887 01:34:22,720 --> 01:34:24,439 Speaker 1: but I think they need to be more aggressive in 1888 01:34:24,520 --> 01:34:26,479 Speaker 1: those situations. All Right, a couple of quick phone calls, 1889 01:34:26,520 --> 01:34:29,400 Speaker 1: then we have to do picks quickly. Lewis and Rochester. 1890 01:34:29,560 --> 01:34:33,400 Speaker 1: What's up, Lewis? Hey, how's it going? Um? I'm a 1891 01:34:33,439 --> 01:34:35,840 Speaker 1: big fan of Bailey's appy. Okay, it makes it kind 1892 01:34:35,840 --> 01:34:37,759 Speaker 1: of sad because I just bought a mac Jones jersey. 1893 01:34:37,960 --> 01:34:41,559 Speaker 1: But well, I think there's something to be said though 1894 01:34:41,640 --> 01:34:44,719 Speaker 1: about the Patriots starting with the ball. I think having 1895 01:34:44,720 --> 01:34:46,880 Speaker 1: a much higher chance to win the game if they 1896 01:34:47,160 --> 01:34:50,200 Speaker 1: received the first kickoff. Why. I don't know what you 1897 01:34:50,240 --> 01:34:54,760 Speaker 1: guys think about that, but yeah, they didn't start with 1898 01:34:54,800 --> 01:34:58,959 Speaker 1: the ball on Sunday. I just think they are dominant 1899 01:34:58,960 --> 01:35:03,160 Speaker 1: on that first drive. Yeah, I'd like to do the study. 1900 01:35:03,160 --> 01:35:05,479 Speaker 1: I think most teams are pretty good on that first drive. 1901 01:35:05,600 --> 01:35:07,680 Speaker 1: I think they you know, yeah, well, I think the 1902 01:35:07,720 --> 01:35:09,600 Speaker 1: Patriots have been really good on the first drive. But 1903 01:35:09,600 --> 01:35:11,400 Speaker 1: I don't care if that's to start the game or 1904 01:35:11,680 --> 01:35:13,559 Speaker 1: the second drive of the game, you know what I mean. 1905 01:35:13,680 --> 01:35:16,880 Speaker 1: Like if they, like on Sunday, Cleveland got the ball first. 1906 01:35:16,960 --> 01:35:18,720 Speaker 1: You just stopped them and it's your first drive, no 1907 01:35:18,800 --> 01:35:22,320 Speaker 1: matter when you drove right down the field. Yeah, yeah, definitely, 1908 01:35:22,600 --> 01:35:24,240 Speaker 1: and then you get the I like getting the ball 1909 01:35:24,680 --> 01:35:26,960 Speaker 1: to get the double. I think it's such an advantage 1910 01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:30,080 Speaker 1: mentally to know how that first half is and even 1911 01:35:30,120 --> 01:35:32,679 Speaker 1: if you don't get the double score, which is bonus, 1912 01:35:33,120 --> 01:35:35,880 Speaker 1: But like I think when there's like four minutes left 1913 01:35:36,439 --> 01:35:38,360 Speaker 1: and a team knows the other team's getting the ball, 1914 01:35:38,400 --> 01:35:40,320 Speaker 1: I think that puts pressure on you know, like we 1915 01:35:40,400 --> 01:35:42,080 Speaker 1: got to score here because they're gonna get the ball 1916 01:35:42,160 --> 01:35:43,960 Speaker 1: in right. I mean, and if you're getting the ball, 1917 01:35:44,040 --> 01:35:46,040 Speaker 1: if you're in a bad situation, take the knee because 1918 01:35:46,080 --> 01:35:48,559 Speaker 1: you know you're getting the ball to start the second half. 1919 01:35:48,600 --> 01:35:50,080 Speaker 1: I just loved it when they got the thanks on 1920 01:35:50,320 --> 01:35:52,280 Speaker 1: the first drive and it was like we got them 1921 01:35:52,680 --> 01:35:58,720 Speaker 1: to stop them. We got an interception already in the game. 1922 01:35:58,760 --> 01:36:02,160 Speaker 1: There's a great article if you google middle eight. It 1923 01:36:02,320 --> 01:36:05,599 Speaker 1: just put that into google middle eight Belichick and you'll 1924 01:36:05,640 --> 01:36:08,639 Speaker 1: get an article on USA football that I can't remember 1925 01:36:08,680 --> 01:36:13,160 Speaker 1: who wrote it. I'm sorry, but yeah, four minutes before 1926 01:36:13,360 --> 01:36:15,880 Speaker 1: four minutes, right, and that's the that's the theory. And 1927 01:36:16,280 --> 01:36:19,160 Speaker 1: this goes back to Cleveland. Michael Lombardi's talked about them 1928 01:36:19,280 --> 01:36:22,400 Speaker 1: kind of crafting this theory in Cleveland before. But not 1929 01:36:22,560 --> 01:36:25,080 Speaker 1: only is it the four minutes, in four minutes of 1930 01:36:25,200 --> 01:36:27,799 Speaker 1: actual game time, you're also keeping the other team's offense 1931 01:36:27,840 --> 01:36:30,439 Speaker 1: off the field for real time as well, because you 1932 01:36:30,560 --> 01:36:32,200 Speaker 1: got if you got the ball for the last four 1933 01:36:32,240 --> 01:36:34,120 Speaker 1: minutes and a half, then you go into the locker 1934 01:36:34,200 --> 01:36:36,439 Speaker 1: room for halftime for fifteen minutes and you have it 1935 01:36:36,520 --> 01:36:38,280 Speaker 1: to start four minutes. You know, you were talking about 1936 01:36:38,280 --> 01:36:42,400 Speaker 1: almost thirty minutes of real time plus of Peyton Manning, 1937 01:36:42,479 --> 01:36:45,320 Speaker 1: Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, you know, sitting on the bench, 1938 01:36:45,360 --> 01:36:47,519 Speaker 1: and the idea is that you break the rhythm of 1939 01:36:47,640 --> 01:36:50,280 Speaker 1: the opponent by doing it that way. Okay, William and 1940 01:36:50,320 --> 01:36:54,320 Speaker 1: Philam what's up? He said, you know what, I'm gonna 1941 01:36:54,400 --> 01:36:57,240 Speaker 1: forego Mike call because I know they've got picks and 1942 01:36:57,320 --> 01:36:59,519 Speaker 1: they got to get going. So what is that time 1943 01:36:59,560 --> 01:37:07,200 Speaker 1: of the week? Appropriate music this week? Paul? What did 1944 01:37:07,240 --> 01:37:09,400 Speaker 1: we do last week? Oh? Just real quick thirty four 1945 01:37:09,439 --> 01:37:12,320 Speaker 1: to nineteen in favor of Mac for the week. UM, 1946 01:37:12,920 --> 01:37:14,840 Speaker 1: getting a lot a lot of attention to the pole. 1947 01:37:14,880 --> 01:37:17,639 Speaker 1: Alex is chiming in on the slack channel, a lot 1948 01:37:17,720 --> 01:37:20,760 Speaker 1: of people talking about the my lost pole, my little pole. 1949 01:37:21,280 --> 01:37:24,760 Speaker 1: Smart listeners. We have, Yes, I would agree have one 1950 01:37:24,800 --> 01:37:28,400 Speaker 1: of the only things we ever agreed on. Um, I'm 1951 01:37:28,439 --> 01:37:32,920 Speaker 1: just kidding. So Week seven, we're entering week seven. Uh. 1952 01:37:33,120 --> 01:37:37,080 Speaker 1: Here's the results from last week. Mike nine and five, 1953 01:37:38,280 --> 01:37:42,840 Speaker 1: so uh, Alex and Paul eight and six, Evans seven 1954 01:37:42,920 --> 01:37:46,560 Speaker 1: and seven, and Fred six and eight. I thought I 1955 01:37:46,560 --> 01:37:48,960 Speaker 1: would did better than that. Yeah, I picked up would happened? 1956 01:37:49,000 --> 01:37:51,640 Speaker 1: I thought? Didn't I pick the Jets? Thought thought he 1957 01:37:51,800 --> 01:37:58,320 Speaker 1: laid a fought, but instead he didn't Jets. You picked 1958 01:37:58,360 --> 01:37:59,880 Speaker 1: the Jets with the points, but you did pick it, 1959 01:38:00,000 --> 01:38:02,080 Speaker 1: that's to win. I didn't know. I thought I did. 1960 01:38:02,280 --> 01:38:04,920 Speaker 1: I thought that was my lock of the week. It 1961 01:38:05,080 --> 01:38:09,880 Speaker 1: was not. For with the spread, no surprise here Paul 1962 01:38:10,040 --> 01:38:14,639 Speaker 1: nine and five, followed by Mike seven and seven. Nope, sorry, 1963 01:38:14,880 --> 01:38:18,160 Speaker 1: followed by Alex eight and six, then Mike at seven 1964 01:38:18,240 --> 01:38:21,760 Speaker 1: and seven, Evan and Fred at six and eight. So 1965 01:38:22,240 --> 01:38:26,360 Speaker 1: overall season standings, no surprise, fifty eight thirty five and one. 1966 01:38:26,479 --> 01:38:30,720 Speaker 1: Paul leads the way, Mike fifty three forty and one, 1967 01:38:31,360 --> 01:38:35,479 Speaker 1: only five games behind. Big season for Mike so far yeast, 1968 01:38:35,520 --> 01:38:37,760 Speaker 1: and then Fred at fifty forty three and one. Ev 1969 01:38:37,840 --> 01:38:40,479 Speaker 1: you're twenty nine and seventeen, not enough games to qualify. 1970 01:38:40,520 --> 01:38:44,000 Speaker 1: You're like Bailey Zabby solid numbers. You have a six 1971 01:38:44,120 --> 01:38:47,080 Speaker 1: thirty winning percentage. That's a solid number. Right in line 1972 01:38:47,080 --> 01:38:49,000 Speaker 1: with the leaders, so you should be proud you can 1973 01:38:49,080 --> 01:38:51,120 Speaker 1: hang out with me. Okay in the league and passer 1974 01:38:51,160 --> 01:38:54,479 Speaker 1: eting right. Alex is thirty eight and twenty four six thirteen, 1975 01:38:54,640 --> 01:38:57,519 Speaker 1: so she's a little bit behind Evan. You know among 1976 01:38:57,600 --> 01:38:59,840 Speaker 1: those tomorrow, you're still seven eight and one because you 1977 01:38:59,920 --> 01:39:02,280 Speaker 1: have participated since week one. She also hasn't heard the 1978 01:39:02,320 --> 01:39:05,080 Speaker 1: practice on. So you get it. You get an incomplete 1979 01:39:05,120 --> 01:39:07,839 Speaker 1: for the semester. All right, we gotta hurry with the spread. 1980 01:39:08,920 --> 01:39:11,040 Speaker 1: Paul fifty five. We don't have to hurry this bias 1981 01:39:11,080 --> 01:39:14,639 Speaker 1: this week fifty five thirty seven and two, well ahead 1982 01:39:14,680 --> 01:39:17,320 Speaker 1: of the pack. Uh. Mike is next at forty six, 1983 01:39:17,439 --> 01:39:23,479 Speaker 1: forty six and two. Uh Fred thirty five, fifty seven 1984 01:39:23,520 --> 01:39:29,920 Speaker 1: and two. Wow, stop laughing at him, Stop laughing, Paul Parle. Uh. 1985 01:39:30,240 --> 01:39:35,679 Speaker 1: Alex thirty thirty one and one, Evan twenty one, twenty 1986 01:39:35,720 --> 01:39:39,720 Speaker 1: three and two. Yeah, four seventy eight. Not great, not 1987 01:39:39,840 --> 01:39:42,280 Speaker 1: a great against the spread, and I'm knocking on the door. 1988 01:39:42,439 --> 01:39:45,240 Speaker 1: Sixty percent through six weeks with the spread. That's really 1989 01:39:45,320 --> 01:39:48,600 Speaker 1: I have an enormous fall those betting no one, No 1990 01:39:48,680 --> 01:39:51,040 Speaker 1: one can maintain that I have an enormous fall At 1991 01:39:51,120 --> 01:39:53,840 Speaker 1: USA dot com like as obnoxious as I come off 1992 01:39:53,920 --> 01:39:56,479 Speaker 1: making these picks, it's that's such a fluke. And then 1993 01:39:56,840 --> 01:39:59,200 Speaker 1: just nope, nobody can go sixty percent for any length 1994 01:39:59,240 --> 01:40:00,800 Speaker 1: of time. You can put that on your resume except 1995 01:40:00,840 --> 01:40:03,880 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick in real football games. Well he's more like 1996 01:40:04,080 --> 01:40:09,080 Speaker 1: seventy five. Yeah, all right, that's that. That's the number 1997 01:40:09,080 --> 01:40:11,880 Speaker 1: of pro football with Paul Parrello. Yeah, you don't want 1998 01:40:11,880 --> 01:40:16,280 Speaker 1: to do that. Um, all right. Tonight eight fifteen, Prime Video, 1999 01:40:16,880 --> 01:40:19,000 Speaker 1: the two and four Saints are at the two and 2000 01:40:19,120 --> 01:40:23,479 Speaker 1: four Cardinals, Cardinals by two and a half and welcoming 2001 01:40:23,600 --> 01:40:26,560 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins back to looking him back and uh and 2002 01:40:26,720 --> 01:40:30,160 Speaker 1: Robbie Anderson traps into the fold as well. I know 2003 01:40:30,280 --> 01:40:32,559 Speaker 1: Arizona has been atrocious. Um, but you know what, I'm 2004 01:40:32,560 --> 01:40:34,920 Speaker 1: gonna take them. I'm gonna take them at home and uh, 2005 01:40:35,120 --> 01:40:38,120 Speaker 1: I will lay the points. Yeah, I'm also gonna take 2006 01:40:38,160 --> 01:40:42,320 Speaker 1: Arizona to both ways. Well, I just feel like they 2007 01:40:42,360 --> 01:40:45,120 Speaker 1: are getting Hopkins back, and I think a lot of 2008 01:40:45,160 --> 01:40:48,479 Speaker 1: these young quarterbacks, it just changes everything when you have 2009 01:40:48,760 --> 01:40:51,559 Speaker 1: your Binkie back, right, I mean he takes Stefon Diggs 2010 01:40:51,560 --> 01:40:54,080 Speaker 1: from Josh Allen. You take you know, any of these 2011 01:40:54,280 --> 01:40:57,000 Speaker 1: number one guys from a quarterback, and it often looks 2012 01:40:57,040 --> 01:40:59,519 Speaker 1: like this, Tomarow, would you like to make picks or 2013 01:40:59,520 --> 01:41:01,439 Speaker 1: are you just going to abstain and continue with your 2014 01:41:01,479 --> 01:41:05,200 Speaker 1: incomplete for the semester. I think I'm just gonna complete 2015 01:41:05,840 --> 01:41:10,599 Speaker 1: my incomplete. Okay, okay, I will take Arizona also, um 2016 01:41:11,240 --> 01:41:12,720 Speaker 1: for a lot of the reasons that Evan't said. I 2017 01:41:12,760 --> 01:41:14,840 Speaker 1: think Hopkins gives them a lift tonight. At least I'm 2018 01:41:14,840 --> 01:41:18,160 Speaker 1: panking on that on my fantasy. I will take the Saints. Okay, 2019 01:41:18,320 --> 01:41:21,080 Speaker 1: I will take the Saints. I think they've been despite 2020 01:41:21,280 --> 01:41:23,760 Speaker 1: not having a quarterback and all their injuries, I think 2021 01:41:23,800 --> 01:41:26,320 Speaker 1: they've been competitive and I give them credits. So I'm 2022 01:41:26,360 --> 01:41:30,120 Speaker 1: gonna take the Saints one o'clock on Sunday. The two 2023 01:41:30,200 --> 01:41:33,479 Speaker 1: and four Browns are at the three and three Ravens. 2024 01:41:33,920 --> 01:41:37,040 Speaker 1: Ravens by six and a half, six and a half, 2025 01:41:38,320 --> 01:41:42,080 Speaker 1: and we know what Miles Carrots status currently is. It 2026 01:41:42,240 --> 01:41:45,800 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. I'm gonna take Baltimore. I'm gonna I'm very 2027 01:41:45,880 --> 01:41:51,519 Speaker 1: rock like, it doesn't matter what you uh, Yeah, I'm 2028 01:41:51,520 --> 01:41:53,960 Speaker 1: gonna te Baltimore all the points. I think they're good. 2029 01:41:55,320 --> 01:42:00,679 Speaker 1: I'm with Mike Baltimore wins, Baltimore covers Cleveland is Brown disarray. 2030 01:42:01,640 --> 01:42:04,760 Speaker 1: I will take Baltimore to win. However, I will take 2031 01:42:04,800 --> 01:42:07,040 Speaker 1: the points in a divisional game. I think that's too 2032 01:42:07,080 --> 01:42:09,280 Speaker 1: many points in one of these divisional matchups. Yeah, I'm 2033 01:42:09,280 --> 01:42:11,719 Speaker 1: gonna take the Ravens both ways. The Patriots have given 2034 01:42:11,840 --> 01:42:15,879 Speaker 1: the blueprint to the league for the Browns are one o'clock. 2035 01:42:16,920 --> 01:42:20,040 Speaker 1: The three and three Buccaneers are at the one in five. 2036 01:42:20,280 --> 01:42:26,280 Speaker 1: Panthers Bucks by ten and a half. Can the Bucks 2037 01:42:26,320 --> 01:42:28,519 Speaker 1: score that many points? Man, if this was a couple 2038 01:42:28,520 --> 01:42:30,599 Speaker 1: of weeks ago, I'd be taking Tampa and laying the points. 2039 01:42:30,600 --> 01:42:33,880 Speaker 1: I'm still gonna take Tampa to win. However, I'm going 2040 01:42:33,920 --> 01:42:35,800 Speaker 1: to take those points. I think it'll be a little 2041 01:42:35,800 --> 01:42:39,719 Speaker 1: bit closer than ten. You little faith you, I agree 2042 01:42:39,760 --> 01:42:42,160 Speaker 1: with Mike. I just don't think Tampa's in a position 2043 01:42:42,280 --> 01:42:43,840 Speaker 1: right now to be a nine and a half point 2044 01:42:43,920 --> 01:42:48,240 Speaker 1: favorite against a divisional opponent on the road. I will 2045 01:42:48,320 --> 01:42:51,439 Speaker 1: take Tampa both ways. Carolina is in complete. It's more 2046 01:42:51,439 --> 01:42:54,559 Speaker 1: of an anti Carolina pick than half support for the Tampa. 2047 01:42:54,680 --> 01:42:56,280 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, I don't think the Panthers are 2048 01:42:56,320 --> 01:42:59,120 Speaker 1: in a position to compete with anybody, so that's why 2049 01:42:59,200 --> 01:43:01,920 Speaker 1: that point mark and despite the Buccaneers not playing well. 2050 01:43:02,360 --> 01:43:05,400 Speaker 1: So I'll take the Bucks both ways. One o'clock, the 2051 01:43:05,720 --> 01:43:08,759 Speaker 1: three and three Falcons are at the three and three Bengals. 2052 01:43:09,000 --> 01:43:12,680 Speaker 1: Bengals buy six and a half. What a surprise from 2053 01:43:12,680 --> 01:43:17,120 Speaker 1: Atlanta's disrespect to the Falcons. A little disrespect. Yeah, I'm 2054 01:43:17,120 --> 01:43:19,080 Speaker 1: gonna take Sincy to win, but I'm going to take 2055 01:43:19,120 --> 01:43:25,400 Speaker 1: the points. I think it'll be close. Marcus Mariotta's playing okay, Yeah, 2056 01:43:25,720 --> 01:43:27,840 Speaker 1: I think I'm going to do the same thing. I 2057 01:43:28,000 --> 01:43:32,240 Speaker 1: really like Atlanta's two headed moser and offense, Drake London, 2058 01:43:32,439 --> 01:43:35,719 Speaker 1: Kyle Pitts. It's been good for them. Hopefully get CP 2059 01:43:35,880 --> 01:43:39,400 Speaker 1: back eventually. I will take Cincinnati both ways. I think 2060 01:43:39,400 --> 01:43:41,880 Speaker 1: the Bengals are very very close. I think they're right 2061 01:43:41,960 --> 01:43:45,120 Speaker 1: on the edge of sort of fixing their early season. Malays, Yeah, 2062 01:43:45,120 --> 01:43:47,880 Speaker 1: I'm taking the Bengals both ways. Wow, that's stunning. Yeah. 2063 01:43:47,960 --> 01:43:50,080 Speaker 1: You never take sin I know, but I have to. 2064 01:43:50,320 --> 01:43:52,160 Speaker 1: I have to. You don't like them, I have to 2065 01:43:52,360 --> 01:43:54,120 Speaker 1: get better. Well, that's part of the reason why you're 2066 01:43:54,120 --> 01:43:55,599 Speaker 1: in this hole is you only pick what you want 2067 01:43:55,640 --> 01:43:58,040 Speaker 1: to happen instead of what you think. That's true, but 2068 01:43:58,200 --> 01:44:01,400 Speaker 1: usually I'm good with defending you there because it usually 2069 01:44:01,439 --> 01:44:04,360 Speaker 1: works for me. One o'clock the one bit pick. The 2070 01:44:04,439 --> 01:44:07,840 Speaker 1: one and four Lions are at the four and two Cowboys. 2071 01:44:08,880 --> 01:44:12,559 Speaker 1: Dallas by seven seven and Dak Dak is back. Dak 2072 01:44:12,720 --> 01:44:16,320 Speaker 1: is back. Uh yeah, I think I think Detroit's done. 2073 01:44:16,320 --> 01:44:20,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Dallas. Um, but yeah, I don't know, 2074 01:44:20,080 --> 01:44:21,840 Speaker 1: call me crazy. I'm gonna take the points for Detroit. 2075 01:44:21,920 --> 01:44:23,519 Speaker 1: I think maybe they get they put up some points 2076 01:44:23,520 --> 01:44:26,160 Speaker 1: in this one. Um, and maybe Dallas isn't quite ready 2077 01:44:26,200 --> 01:44:29,479 Speaker 1: for get right back into it just yet. I like 2078 01:44:29,640 --> 01:44:33,240 Speaker 1: Dallas both ways. Yeah, me too. I think that Dallas 2079 01:44:33,320 --> 01:44:36,519 Speaker 1: defense will be a little upset after allowing that last 2080 01:44:36,600 --> 01:44:40,000 Speaker 1: drive to Jalen Hurts last week. I think they win big. 2081 01:44:40,160 --> 01:44:42,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the Cowboys both ways as well. 2082 01:44:43,640 --> 01:44:46,479 Speaker 1: One o'clock five and one Giants are at the two 2083 01:44:46,560 --> 01:44:49,080 Speaker 1: and four Jaguars. That feels so weird to hear that 2084 01:44:49,600 --> 01:44:54,840 Speaker 1: Giants by three. Three? Um wow, old place, old place? 2085 01:44:55,040 --> 01:44:58,639 Speaker 1: That is that Jacksonville by tax because I have minus 2086 01:44:58,720 --> 01:45:00,960 Speaker 1: three but it just does don't make any sense to me. 2087 01:45:01,200 --> 01:45:04,840 Speaker 1: But Jacksonville's favorite by three? Are they? Yeah? Jacksonville by three? 2088 01:45:04,920 --> 01:45:08,240 Speaker 1: What what's going on? What are the Sharps know? They 2089 01:45:08,280 --> 01:45:13,160 Speaker 1: don't believe in the Giants clearly, as Jim Donaldson would say, clearly, 2090 01:45:13,280 --> 01:45:15,840 Speaker 1: clearly make that a for syllable. But I'm gonna go 2091 01:45:15,920 --> 01:45:19,720 Speaker 1: with the Giants on the road in Florida. I'll take 2092 01:45:19,760 --> 01:45:25,800 Speaker 1: the points. I'm gonna I'm gonna call it an upset, 2093 01:45:25,840 --> 01:45:27,880 Speaker 1: even though Vegas doesn't think it's an upset. I'm taken 2094 01:45:27,920 --> 01:45:32,320 Speaker 1: the Jaguars. I am wow. I think that I believe 2095 01:45:32,640 --> 01:45:35,200 Speaker 1: in Vegas that the Giants are not for real. Like 2096 01:45:35,320 --> 01:45:37,160 Speaker 1: I think this is going to catch up to them eventually, 2097 01:45:37,479 --> 01:45:39,760 Speaker 1: like Daniel Jones is gonna be Daniel Jones at some point, 2098 01:45:40,120 --> 01:45:42,160 Speaker 1: and the Jaguars defense has been good enough that it 2099 01:45:42,160 --> 01:45:45,240 Speaker 1: could happen this week. I agree with everything Evan just said. 2100 01:45:45,320 --> 01:45:47,360 Speaker 1: I don't believe in the Giants. I think they've had 2101 01:45:47,439 --> 01:45:50,160 Speaker 1: one lucky thing after another happened every one of these games, 2102 01:45:50,240 --> 01:45:53,120 Speaker 1: and they're finding a way. They're well coached, and they're fighting. 2103 01:45:53,680 --> 01:45:58,280 Speaker 1: I don't think they're very good. However, I gotta take them. Yeah, 2104 01:45:58,400 --> 01:46:00,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna. I've I think I've lost every game that 2105 01:46:00,840 --> 01:46:03,439 Speaker 1: I've picked them this year. When they lose I'll start 2106 01:46:03,479 --> 01:46:06,519 Speaker 1: picking against them again. They have something going here. I'm 2107 01:46:06,520 --> 01:46:08,479 Speaker 1: going to pick the Giant. I'm surprised with the spread. 2108 01:46:08,600 --> 01:46:10,200 Speaker 1: It gives me an out because I was going to 2109 01:46:10,280 --> 01:46:12,640 Speaker 1: pick the Jaguars both ways. But now I'll pick the 2110 01:46:12,760 --> 01:46:15,680 Speaker 1: Jaguars to win. But I'll take the Giants to uh 2111 01:46:16,280 --> 01:46:18,639 Speaker 1: but they won't cover. So this gives me an out 2112 01:46:19,120 --> 01:46:23,200 Speaker 1: that I didn't expect. Um. One o'clock, the three two 2113 01:46:23,240 --> 01:46:26,519 Speaker 1: and one Colts are at the three and two Titans, 2114 01:46:26,680 --> 01:46:30,400 Speaker 1: which they get an indoor stadium in Nashville because they 2115 01:46:30,439 --> 01:46:32,840 Speaker 1: want a super Bowl. I would think, right, I guess, yeah, 2116 01:46:33,240 --> 01:46:35,040 Speaker 1: a good place for it. It's a great place for 2117 01:46:35,120 --> 01:46:37,679 Speaker 1: a super Bowl. That that street will be like Bourbon Street. 2118 01:46:37,720 --> 01:46:40,040 Speaker 1: It'll be won't even be able to move. Yeah, do 2119 01:46:40,200 --> 01:46:42,120 Speaker 1: karaoke again by the time it gets there, though, Mike, 2120 01:46:42,160 --> 01:46:45,479 Speaker 1: I'll be too old too. I'm already on the edge, 2121 01:46:46,160 --> 01:46:53,400 Speaker 1: you know. Ten o'clock, but it's wid Yeah, will be 2122 01:46:53,439 --> 01:46:57,920 Speaker 1: out with us. We went karaoke. U uh. Tennessee by 2123 01:46:57,920 --> 01:47:00,840 Speaker 1: two and a half. Gotta get there good times. Um, 2124 01:47:01,360 --> 01:47:03,799 Speaker 1: that's a tough one. And I'm a fan of Tennessee, 2125 01:47:03,880 --> 01:47:05,599 Speaker 1: but I just feel like the wheels are falling off 2126 01:47:05,640 --> 01:47:08,760 Speaker 1: the bus there. Uh, and so I think I'm gonna go. 2127 01:47:09,040 --> 01:47:11,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Indie and Matt Ryan throwing on 2128 01:47:11,439 --> 01:47:14,680 Speaker 1: the road. I'll take those points. The wheels on the 2129 01:47:14,760 --> 01:47:19,080 Speaker 1: bus are falling. Derek Henry, you can't run no more. 2130 01:47:20,320 --> 01:47:22,640 Speaker 1: That might be true. Derrick Henry is on on my 2131 01:47:22,800 --> 01:47:28,120 Speaker 1: wash washed watch list five times fast. I can't. That's 2132 01:47:28,160 --> 01:47:31,200 Speaker 1: why I stumbled on the first time. I say Max 2133 01:47:32,640 --> 01:47:35,920 Speaker 1: that being said very slowly. I'm gonna take the Titans. 2134 01:47:36,680 --> 01:47:42,000 Speaker 1: The Titans, says Evan. I will take Oh, I'm gonna 2135 01:47:42,040 --> 01:47:45,160 Speaker 1: take the Colts. Don't really have any in depth reason 2136 01:47:45,280 --> 01:47:47,240 Speaker 1: as to why. I do think they may have found 2137 01:47:47,320 --> 01:47:49,880 Speaker 1: something last week with the past protection. They threw its 2138 01:47:49,920 --> 01:47:52,559 Speaker 1: sixty two times and didn't get sacked at all. They 2139 01:47:52,600 --> 01:47:54,599 Speaker 1: went a little bit tempo, and I think that helped 2140 01:47:54,640 --> 01:47:57,400 Speaker 1: them a little bit. Jonathan Taylor sounds like he's close 2141 01:47:57,439 --> 01:48:00,280 Speaker 1: to returning. Maybe they found some balance on all offense 2142 01:48:00,360 --> 01:48:04,040 Speaker 1: with playing without him. I'll take the Colts. I don't 2143 01:48:04,080 --> 01:48:05,960 Speaker 1: know why, but the Colts is starting to annoy me. 2144 01:48:06,320 --> 01:48:08,719 Speaker 1: Cults are annoying friends. I don't know why. But who's 2145 01:48:08,760 --> 01:48:12,200 Speaker 1: at eleven? Yeah, there's a shock the Coults are annoying. 2146 01:48:12,240 --> 01:48:14,760 Speaker 1: You're annoying. They're annoying me A buck for every time 2147 01:48:14,800 --> 01:48:17,040 Speaker 1: you said that since like oh one, Yeah, so I'm 2148 01:48:17,040 --> 01:48:19,000 Speaker 1: gonna take the Titans to win this game. Why are 2149 01:48:19,040 --> 01:48:20,920 Speaker 1: they annoying you? And I feel like that pick is 2150 01:48:20,960 --> 01:48:25,720 Speaker 1: gonna bite you weird Paul Paul said that you're picking. Yeah, 2151 01:48:25,840 --> 01:48:29,280 Speaker 1: he might have to do it. One o'clock, the three 2152 01:48:29,320 --> 01:48:32,160 Speaker 1: and three Packers are at the two and four Commanders, 2153 01:48:33,040 --> 01:48:36,559 Speaker 1: green Bay by four and a half, four and a half. 2154 01:48:36,960 --> 01:48:39,120 Speaker 1: It just is I mean, oh, I just like to 2155 01:48:39,160 --> 01:48:43,720 Speaker 1: say that, Taylor Haneke, Yeah, exactly. That changes things. That's 2156 01:48:43,760 --> 01:48:45,720 Speaker 1: why I'll be taking the point. Yeah, yeah, I know 2157 01:48:47,240 --> 01:48:50,519 Speaker 1: I tempted to take those points, but I'm still not 2158 01:48:50,600 --> 01:48:52,439 Speaker 1: going to. I think Green Bay, as bad as they've looked, 2159 01:48:52,439 --> 01:48:54,280 Speaker 1: I just can't pick the Commanders with a backup quarterback 2160 01:48:54,320 --> 01:48:57,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take and wow, no faith in the backup. So. 2161 01:48:57,800 --> 01:49:00,519 Speaker 1: I know that he had this finger in jury that's 2162 01:49:00,520 --> 01:49:02,519 Speaker 1: causing him to miss a couple of games, but that 2163 01:49:02,960 --> 01:49:05,800 Speaker 1: Thursday Night tape of Carson Wentz playing quarterback was the 2164 01:49:05,840 --> 01:49:08,800 Speaker 1: worst quarterback tape I've seen all season. You can go 2165 01:49:08,920 --> 01:49:10,719 Speaker 1: back and watch the Thursday night game or the Saturday 2166 01:49:10,800 --> 01:49:13,120 Speaker 1: night game against the Patriots last year. Yeah, it was. 2167 01:49:13,160 --> 01:49:16,439 Speaker 1: It was up there, same guy. I mean, guys five 2168 01:49:16,560 --> 01:49:19,479 Speaker 1: yards away from him, open underneath the defense, and it's 2169 01:49:19,600 --> 01:49:23,000 Speaker 1: it's rifled at their hands, you know, outside their frame, 2170 01:49:23,040 --> 01:49:25,400 Speaker 1: and it's deflecting in the air. And it was. It 2171 01:49:25,600 --> 01:49:29,639 Speaker 1: was horrible. But that being said, I think eventually green 2172 01:49:29,720 --> 01:49:32,280 Speaker 1: Bay has to find a couple of wins here. So 2173 01:49:32,360 --> 01:49:35,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take the Packers. I'm gonna take him to cover. 2174 01:49:35,520 --> 01:49:37,639 Speaker 1: I just I like green Bay in this game. Yeah, 2175 01:49:37,640 --> 01:49:41,080 Speaker 1: I agree about green Bay. I don't think they're very good. 2176 01:49:41,120 --> 01:49:43,479 Speaker 1: I said that after the Patriots game. I still don't 2177 01:49:43,520 --> 01:49:45,400 Speaker 1: think they're very good, but they're better than this. Yeah. 2178 01:49:46,000 --> 01:49:47,840 Speaker 1: I think they'll they'll go on the road and at 2179 01:49:47,880 --> 01:49:49,479 Speaker 1: least get a win here. But I'll take the four 2180 01:49:49,520 --> 01:49:51,720 Speaker 1: and a half I'll take. I think Heineke gives them 2181 01:49:51,760 --> 01:49:54,160 Speaker 1: a little bit of juice. I think he moves around 2182 01:49:54,240 --> 01:49:56,519 Speaker 1: well and could cause some problems. I don't think he's 2183 01:49:56,600 --> 01:49:58,760 Speaker 1: very good, but for a game or two, you can 2184 01:49:58,800 --> 01:50:01,800 Speaker 1: cause your problems. Think they're better than they've been playing, 2185 01:50:01,920 --> 01:50:05,240 Speaker 1: but after this game, we may not be so convinced 2186 01:50:05,280 --> 01:50:06,960 Speaker 1: of that. But I'm gonna stick with him for one 2187 01:50:07,000 --> 01:50:11,479 Speaker 1: more game. Packers cover four oh five. The four and 2188 01:50:11,600 --> 01:50:14,840 Speaker 1: two Jets are at the two and four Broncos. Of 2189 01:50:14,880 --> 01:50:17,400 Speaker 1: course the Broncos are home. Of course they are Denver 2190 01:50:17,680 --> 01:50:21,880 Speaker 1: by one one. This is a Russell Wilson limited. This 2191 01:50:22,040 --> 01:50:24,479 Speaker 1: is a game that could be in the negatives. Someone 2192 01:50:24,520 --> 01:50:26,800 Speaker 1: could win this game like negative three to negative seven. 2193 01:50:27,200 --> 01:50:29,880 Speaker 1: I think Russell's gonna be okay, at least that's what 2194 01:50:29,960 --> 01:50:32,240 Speaker 1: he said. Um, this is just a spite pick. I'm 2195 01:50:32,240 --> 01:50:33,920 Speaker 1: gonna take Denver. I feel like it's a pick them. 2196 01:50:35,120 --> 01:50:37,679 Speaker 1: I'll take him, and I'll lay the point. I'm gonna 2197 01:50:37,680 --> 01:50:40,599 Speaker 1: take the Jets. I can take the Jets on the road. 2198 01:50:40,680 --> 01:50:42,880 Speaker 1: I think the one thing about the Jets that seems 2199 01:50:42,960 --> 01:50:45,240 Speaker 1: legitimate is their defense, and the one thing that seems 2200 01:50:45,640 --> 01:50:48,960 Speaker 1: legitimate about the Broncos at their offense sticks. So I'm 2201 01:50:49,000 --> 01:50:51,479 Speaker 1: taking the Jets your offense legitimately. I think you could 2202 01:50:51,479 --> 01:50:54,559 Speaker 1: say the same about both teams. I think both teams 2203 01:50:54,640 --> 01:50:57,240 Speaker 1: have a legitimate defense and that both of their offenses 2204 01:50:57,360 --> 01:51:01,200 Speaker 1: are struggling. I will take Denver here. I hope Evans right. 2205 01:51:01,280 --> 01:51:03,519 Speaker 1: This is one of those talk radio things. I think 2206 01:51:03,560 --> 01:51:05,519 Speaker 1: a five and two Jets game next week. We'd give 2207 01:51:05,560 --> 01:51:07,679 Speaker 1: us a fun week to talk about that game. Four 2208 01:51:07,720 --> 01:51:10,040 Speaker 1: and three Patriots at the five and two Jets. It's 2209 01:51:10,040 --> 01:51:13,040 Speaker 1: a real game. It's a real game. Yeah. But I 2210 01:51:13,120 --> 01:51:15,040 Speaker 1: also think that if both teams are four and three 2211 01:51:15,120 --> 01:51:17,680 Speaker 1: going into next week, that's two, then the bloom's off. 2212 01:51:17,720 --> 01:51:19,800 Speaker 1: The Jets rose and they are what we thought, but 2213 01:51:19,880 --> 01:51:22,720 Speaker 1: now the Patriots have a chance to leap frog over them. Well, 2214 01:51:22,800 --> 01:51:24,320 Speaker 1: just win the game and you'd be ahead of them 2215 01:51:24,600 --> 01:51:29,000 Speaker 1: because of the correct Yeah. Yes, this is a tough checkers. 2216 01:51:29,120 --> 01:51:31,160 Speaker 1: This is a tough like advanced analytics there. You just 2217 01:51:32,280 --> 01:51:35,680 Speaker 1: I'd rather be down nine. Yeah, this is a tough one. 2218 01:51:37,520 --> 01:51:39,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take the Broncos only because I want them 2219 01:51:39,760 --> 01:51:43,400 Speaker 1: to win, but I was tempted to take the Jets. Yeah, 2220 01:51:43,479 --> 01:51:48,479 Speaker 1: I just just to repeat, just to repeat, thirty five 2221 01:51:48,800 --> 01:51:51,000 Speaker 1: fifty seven in two. I feel like this is one 2222 01:51:51,040 --> 01:51:54,720 Speaker 1: of those like up moments. No, but to marry You 2223 01:51:54,760 --> 01:51:57,120 Speaker 1: don't understand that what he does. But that's why we 2224 01:51:57,200 --> 01:51:59,799 Speaker 1: beat him every year, and he has so many agenda. 2225 01:52:00,040 --> 01:52:04,640 Speaker 1: Last years, I've had very good records, that's true. You 2226 01:52:04,760 --> 01:52:08,599 Speaker 1: know you had a good record once. It's such a fraud, 2227 01:52:09,240 --> 01:52:11,679 Speaker 1: such a fraud. Don't make me go and get my notebooks. 2228 01:52:12,600 --> 01:52:16,960 Speaker 1: I have really good young cornerback matchup. Not that they 2229 01:52:17,000 --> 01:52:19,320 Speaker 1: play against them one another, but do you think Sauce 2230 01:52:19,360 --> 01:52:21,360 Speaker 1: good is pretty good? Probably two of the best young 2231 01:52:21,439 --> 01:52:25,560 Speaker 1: quarters in the league. Sauce versus Trick certain certain is 2232 01:52:25,840 --> 01:52:28,200 Speaker 1: I think probably the best young corner and he's really good, 2233 01:52:28,520 --> 01:52:31,400 Speaker 1: unbelievable player. Yeah, all right, four or five? One, three 2234 01:52:31,439 --> 01:52:35,479 Speaker 1: and one Texans. Jack Easterby no longer with us at 2235 01:52:35,600 --> 01:52:39,920 Speaker 1: the one and four Raiders um Raiders by seven. Did 2236 01:52:39,960 --> 01:52:43,120 Speaker 1: you happen to see Mount Mount Cooks had a pretty 2237 01:52:43,160 --> 01:52:49,840 Speaker 1: good backing for Jack Easterby. Never been nothing but but 2238 01:52:50,040 --> 01:52:53,320 Speaker 1: forthcoming with us and pleasure to deal with something. I 2239 01:52:53,400 --> 01:52:56,280 Speaker 1: read the whole John mccle Really surprising that John McClinton 2240 01:52:57,760 --> 01:53:01,840 Speaker 1: little fingers, he's bad news used to be. But Raiders 2241 01:53:01,880 --> 01:53:03,920 Speaker 1: by seven, Raiders by seven. That is a one win 2242 01:53:04,000 --> 01:53:06,920 Speaker 1: team favored by seven over probably the worst team in 2243 01:53:06,960 --> 01:53:10,720 Speaker 1: the league. Maybe I gotta go with the fighting josh Is. 2244 01:53:10,840 --> 01:53:12,840 Speaker 1: Give me the fighting Joshes and I'm gonna lay the points. 2245 01:53:13,360 --> 01:53:16,200 Speaker 1: Big win for the Raiders. Let's go. Yeah, I think 2246 01:53:16,240 --> 01:53:19,080 Speaker 1: the Raiders win, But that's too many points. So I'll 2247 01:53:19,120 --> 01:53:21,599 Speaker 1: take the Raiders and I'll take Houston to cover. Yeah, 2248 01:53:21,600 --> 01:53:23,200 Speaker 1: I have to admit that's what I thought when I 2249 01:53:23,240 --> 01:53:24,600 Speaker 1: saw it. But I'm going to roll the dice and 2250 01:53:24,720 --> 01:53:26,720 Speaker 1: lay the points. I think the Raiders coming off the 2251 01:53:26,800 --> 01:53:30,000 Speaker 1: buy maybe get right John Well, yeah, to get right 2252 01:53:30,040 --> 01:53:33,040 Speaker 1: game good good, Mike Sharp, the Sharks know something. Raiders 2253 01:53:33,160 --> 01:53:37,519 Speaker 1: cover four twenty five. The three and three Seahawks are 2254 01:53:37,600 --> 01:53:41,479 Speaker 1: at the four and two Chargers charges by six and 2255 01:53:41,520 --> 01:53:45,599 Speaker 1: a half. Six and a half. That sounds about right. Um. Yeah, 2256 01:53:45,640 --> 01:53:48,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Justin Herbert. I think they've kind 2257 01:53:48,160 --> 01:53:50,240 Speaker 1: of overcome some of those injuries. They held the fort, 2258 01:53:50,760 --> 01:53:52,599 Speaker 1: they're still you know now, I'm ever going to play again? 2259 01:53:53,000 --> 01:53:56,000 Speaker 1: He said no this week, really never again. I'll never 2260 01:53:56,120 --> 01:53:58,439 Speaker 1: play again. I'll lay the points, Paul, I'll take the 2261 01:53:58,520 --> 01:54:02,479 Speaker 1: Charges and lay the points. Great quarterback matchup, the fighting 2262 01:54:02,600 --> 01:54:07,080 Speaker 1: Genos versus Justin Herbert. I love it. I'm gonna take 2263 01:54:07,120 --> 01:54:12,759 Speaker 1: the Chargers though. I think that Justin Herbert is quickly 2264 01:54:12,840 --> 01:54:16,439 Speaker 1: climbing up that ranking of elite quarterbacks in this league. 2265 01:54:16,880 --> 01:54:19,200 Speaker 1: Maybe haven't at like five or six right now. So 2266 01:54:19,280 --> 01:54:21,800 Speaker 1: you're lay in the points too. Yeah, yeah, I agree 2267 01:54:21,840 --> 01:54:23,800 Speaker 1: with you on Herbert, but there's something missing that I 2268 01:54:23,880 --> 01:54:26,280 Speaker 1: can't figure out why he doesn't win more. Um. Yeah, 2269 01:54:26,320 --> 01:54:28,960 Speaker 1: it's a good point. But I will take the Chargers 2270 01:54:29,000 --> 01:54:30,479 Speaker 1: to win this game, and I will take the point 2271 01:54:30,560 --> 01:54:34,120 Speaker 1: six and a half against the Chargers. They haven't. That's 2272 01:54:34,160 --> 01:54:36,040 Speaker 1: another one of those teams, like you know, people just 2273 01:54:36,120 --> 01:54:37,880 Speaker 1: like well you oh with your record, Like I don't 2274 01:54:37,920 --> 01:54:39,480 Speaker 1: think they look like a four and two team. Yeah, 2275 01:54:39,520 --> 01:54:42,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm I'm with you, Paul, Charges win, but 2276 01:54:42,920 --> 01:54:45,440 Speaker 1: they do not cover four twenty five, four and two. 2277 01:54:45,560 --> 01:54:48,040 Speaker 1: Chiefs are at the three and three forty nine Ers 2278 01:54:48,400 --> 01:54:51,640 Speaker 1: screwed me last year week Chiefs by three. Wait who 2279 01:54:51,720 --> 01:54:56,240 Speaker 1: super Bowl rematch here? Yeah? I got no beat on 2280 01:54:56,320 --> 01:54:58,360 Speaker 1: the Niners. But I'm gonna go to Kansas City on 2281 01:54:58,400 --> 01:55:00,400 Speaker 1: the road. Ray, Did you hear what I mean? Said that? 2282 01:55:00,480 --> 01:55:05,440 Speaker 1: What super Bowl rematch? Yeah? Nineteen it's a rematch when 2283 01:55:05,440 --> 01:55:09,400 Speaker 1: he says it, when his new little pet, Michael I said, 2284 01:55:09,880 --> 01:55:13,839 Speaker 1: it's not a rematch? Really isn't. It's not the same players, 2285 01:55:14,240 --> 01:55:16,320 Speaker 1: it's not a rematch. I get it. The new kid 2286 01:55:16,360 --> 01:55:19,240 Speaker 1: gets away with anything I get. I'm giving him. I'll 2287 01:55:19,240 --> 01:55:22,960 Speaker 1: give him a season and then and then yes please, 2288 01:55:23,880 --> 01:55:27,680 Speaker 1: I like Casey to bounce back from last week. So yeah, 2289 01:55:27,800 --> 01:55:30,600 Speaker 1: I like yeah. Is San Francisco still missing all those 2290 01:55:30,640 --> 01:55:33,040 Speaker 1: defensive players? Do you see that that they had? They 2291 01:55:33,120 --> 01:55:36,400 Speaker 1: had ten of their projected starters not play last week 2292 01:55:36,440 --> 01:55:39,200 Speaker 1: in that game on defense? Um, I think they were 2293 01:55:39,240 --> 01:55:41,840 Speaker 1: playing the Patriots, right, I will say yeah? I mean, 2294 01:55:42,320 --> 01:55:45,160 Speaker 1: am I right? Kansas City both ways? I think it's 2295 01:55:45,200 --> 01:55:48,680 Speaker 1: INCREDI Kansas City both ways is correct? Um? I love 2296 01:55:48,720 --> 01:55:52,400 Speaker 1: when Frank gives you the stand provement. Eight twenty Sunday 2297 01:55:52,520 --> 01:55:56,320 Speaker 1: night on every three. Uh, the two and four Steelers 2298 01:55:56,440 --> 01:56:01,040 Speaker 1: are at the three and three Dolphins. Uh, two is back. 2299 01:56:01,920 --> 01:56:03,720 Speaker 1: I don't know how long that will last. I have 2300 01:56:03,920 --> 01:56:09,880 Speaker 1: some concerns Miami by seven seven, Um, if he's okay, Yeah, 2301 01:56:09,880 --> 01:56:11,480 Speaker 1: I think Miami could make it a little bit of 2302 01:56:11,480 --> 01:56:13,440 Speaker 1: a run me too. I'm gonna go with Miami and 2303 01:56:14,640 --> 01:56:16,880 Speaker 1: how many. I'm gonna drop some points too, I'm gonna yeah, 2304 01:56:16,920 --> 01:56:20,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna lay him. I'm with Yeah, I'm with Miami 2305 01:56:20,080 --> 01:56:22,320 Speaker 1: both ways. Yeah. I'm gonna bank on two of being 2306 01:56:22,320 --> 01:56:24,600 Speaker 1: able to make it through this game, and if he does, 2307 01:56:24,680 --> 01:56:27,160 Speaker 1: I think they'll cover. I AMMI both ways trending for 2308 01:56:27,200 --> 01:56:31,040 Speaker 1: a perfect week for me. Um, I'm I'm gonna go 2309 01:56:31,240 --> 01:56:35,240 Speaker 1: with the Dolphins, but they do not cover. They do 2310 01:56:35,400 --> 01:56:38,480 Speaker 1: not cover. All right, Monday Night, have a Spike pick there. 2311 01:56:38,600 --> 01:56:41,760 Speaker 1: We don't have to skip over the Patriots because they're 2312 01:56:41,800 --> 01:56:44,400 Speaker 1: the only show in town on Monday. The two and 2313 01:56:44,520 --> 01:56:47,360 Speaker 1: four Bears are here in Foxborough against the three and 2314 01:56:47,480 --> 01:56:51,120 Speaker 1: three Patriots. Okay, I do not have the latest numbers 2315 01:56:51,200 --> 01:56:53,440 Speaker 1: that you guys are talking about. I have Patriots by 2316 01:56:53,480 --> 01:56:55,640 Speaker 1: seven and a half, which is what it was on Sunday, 2317 01:56:55,760 --> 01:56:57,720 Speaker 1: So all right, every day I've seen seven and a 2318 01:56:57,760 --> 01:56:59,560 Speaker 1: half could be fourteen and a half and I'd still 2319 01:56:59,600 --> 01:57:01,280 Speaker 1: take the Yeah. No, but I mean I think it 2320 01:57:01,440 --> 01:57:05,280 Speaker 1: was like nine or something, So I see, we'll go 2321 01:57:06,520 --> 01:57:10,200 Speaker 1: af I'm I'm all Patriots on this one. Paul randomly 2322 01:57:10,240 --> 01:57:12,400 Speaker 1: came up with the same score before the TV shows out. 2323 01:57:12,920 --> 01:57:15,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna stick with that, twenty seven six. I think 2324 01:57:15,320 --> 01:57:20,360 Speaker 1: Patriots have a uh they don't let justin fields and 2325 01:57:20,560 --> 01:57:24,080 Speaker 1: that offense too much. Twenty seven six. So sneak preview 2326 01:57:24,120 --> 01:57:26,360 Speaker 1: and our expert picks. I took twenty four to seven 2327 01:57:26,640 --> 01:57:31,200 Speaker 1: Patriots because my prediction was Bailey, No, was that maybe 2328 01:57:31,320 --> 01:57:33,680 Speaker 1: Mac has some rust in the first half. It takes 2329 01:57:33,720 --> 01:57:35,960 Speaker 1: some a couple of drives to get back in rhythm 2330 01:57:36,440 --> 01:57:40,640 Speaker 1: and uh, and they rolled a second half. But on paper, 2331 01:57:40,880 --> 01:57:43,200 Speaker 1: this should be like forty five to seven, right, Like 2332 01:57:43,280 --> 01:57:46,760 Speaker 1: this should be an absolute party at Gilatte Stadium on 2333 01:57:46,840 --> 01:57:48,880 Speaker 1: Monday night on paper. And I think it would be 2334 01:57:48,960 --> 01:57:51,440 Speaker 1: cool if that is the case and Mac goes out 2335 01:57:51,480 --> 01:57:55,080 Speaker 1: there and throws four tds and three hundred yards and 2336 01:57:55,440 --> 01:57:58,160 Speaker 1: everybody forgets about Zappie Fever. But I don't know if 2337 01:57:58,160 --> 01:58:01,920 Speaker 1: that one never be here. Man, I love it. I 2338 01:58:02,000 --> 01:58:04,400 Speaker 1: love it, mack Man. It's gonna be a lot of 2339 01:58:04,520 --> 01:58:07,040 Speaker 1: a lot of fair Weather fans. Oh yeah, we would 2340 01:58:07,040 --> 01:58:09,480 Speaker 1: be all along, Mac, we had you back. There's gonna 2341 01:58:09,520 --> 01:58:14,440 Speaker 1: be some split like jersey slash t shirts with like oh, 2342 01:58:15,360 --> 01:58:17,400 Speaker 1: I got to talk to Stacey about the Zappy jerseys. 2343 01:58:17,400 --> 01:58:19,920 Speaker 1: Did you hear about that yesterday? Now, I will take 2344 01:58:19,960 --> 01:58:21,880 Speaker 1: the Patriots big in this. Mike already said that I 2345 01:58:21,960 --> 01:58:24,760 Speaker 1: had and I had the same score twenty seven to six. 2346 01:58:25,240 --> 01:58:28,800 Speaker 1: I don't see any way that Chicago has to keep 2347 01:58:28,880 --> 01:58:31,560 Speaker 1: up offensively even if the Patriots don't play, even if 2348 01:58:31,560 --> 01:58:33,720 Speaker 1: there is rust. I have a prediction by I can't 2349 01:58:33,800 --> 01:58:37,360 Speaker 1: move by Monday night, that spread's gonna be eleven because 2350 01:58:37,440 --> 01:58:39,440 Speaker 1: the New England money is just gonna keep coming in 2351 01:58:39,760 --> 01:58:42,560 Speaker 1: and they're gonna need to get even and out. It's 2352 01:58:42,560 --> 01:58:47,120 Speaker 1: gonna be hard. Uh yeah, Patriots both ways. So that's 2353 01:58:47,160 --> 01:58:49,880 Speaker 1: it for this edition of Patriots and scrambled down or 2354 01:58:49,920 --> 01:58:51,960 Speaker 1: right down?
