So, after entering the fourth quarter in 8 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:41,840 Speaker 1: a tie, gave walked all over my open intro ahead pause, 9 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 1: Mike blew us off because I thought Frev was more 10 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 1: important than Bill and my understanding, he's not at eleven o'clock, right, 11 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 1: I take some hope that the offensive line didn't poop themselves. 12 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 1: So you guys are doing a great job of taking 13 00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: away my enthusiasm. And I wrote in my notes he's 14 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,279 Speaker 1: a West Coast coach. I don't mean like he lives 15 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 1: in a West Coast offense out there just to get 16 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 1: the ball back. And I was like, that should be 17 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 1: your number one priority. After that's what you said to him, 18 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: I was thinking, he's like, whoa Evan? In a rare 19 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:19,959 Speaker 1: moment of complete agreement, Yeah, with Fred Kerry. Yeah, Sean 20 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 1: vic Turmis. Remember Calvin Ridley with the Onesies, Stephen Ridley, 21 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 1: Stephen Ridley cat not Calvin.

I got that in before Paul stepped on out. 25 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: Anything to add Paul, No, he's this mouthless shut you 26 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: just wait, zip it. Let him set the table. Yes, 27 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: but we are getting ready for a Thursday night Amazon 28 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: Prime clash with the Bills. I'm excited. I'm really excited 29 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: about this game. Let's see what we've got. Is it? 30 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: Like I said, let's let's just get it over with. 31 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 1: I'm excited. Let's get it off. No, let's let's just 32 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: rip this band aid off. What do we got? What 33 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: do we got? We We saw some improvement on the offense. 34 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 1: Last week. You know, defense didn't play so well against 35 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 1: a better offense. Okay, so this is now a better 36 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: defense and a better offense. Let's see what we got. Yeah. 37 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 1: I think that's what me and everyone talking about stairs. 38 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: I like what I like about this week is I mean, 39 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if I like it at this point, 40 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: but it's been a chance to finally put that playoff 41 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: game to rest a little bit. We've been talking a 42 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:33,959 Speaker 1: lot about it. I know Evan doesn't even want to 43 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:35,679 Speaker 1: talk about He's over it. He's very fired up about 44 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 1: hearing about the playoff game anymore. But you know, when 45 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: the season ends like that, you never really have a 46 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,959 Speaker 1: chance to talk it out. He's just kind of like, 47 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 1: that was it. The season's over. We got blown out. 48 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: You know, you never really did damage assessment. And I 49 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: feel like this week there's been a lot of so 50 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: you know, you guys didn't punt right, Like, I mean, 51 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: every press conference, every media availability, they're bringing that up 52 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: to them. And you know, you heard Adrian Phillips. I 53 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: think it was like we basically got our faces kicked 54 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:03,119 Speaker 1: in basically basically literally. Um but yeah, so it's, uh yeah, 55 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 1: it's all building up. I'm excited. I am excited to 56 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: see what it is. It feels like everything's been building 57 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,239 Speaker 1: up to this game. Dawkins and Miller out, so those 58 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 1: are you know, like Paul said yesterday, the Patriots might 59 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: be catching the Bills at just the right time, but 60 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: we we gotta see it on the field say that. 61 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: I think they get them at a good time or 62 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: it always works out. I mean, not necessarily because of 63 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 1: the injuries, because I think, um, in terms of what 64 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: Buffalo has been through, this is one of their up weeks. 65 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: I think injury wise, it looks like Rousseau and Epanessa 66 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: and Edmonds are all going to play. And those are 67 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: three guys that didn't play on their defense last week. UM, 68 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: three important guys in their front seven. So I think 69 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: the arrow is actually pointing up for them injury wise. 70 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: I think more of the spot. UM. I think first 71 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: of all, they're not playing great. They've been sloppy lately, 72 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: turning the ball over and it's hard to just turn 73 00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: that faucet on and off. And you know, the three 74 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: games in twelve days that both teams are going through, 75 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: they've been on the road for all three of them. 76 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: The Patriots are going to be home for two out 77 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: of three of them. I think that's an advantage for 78 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: the Patriots. That's why I think I'm not telling you 79 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: this is a great spot for the Patriots. I just 80 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: think it's probably as good a spot to play this 81 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 1: team as you could could have picked Short to play 82 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: schedule another hurricane, right right, you know what I mean, Like, 83 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 1: I'm not telling you that that, Oh, everything is pointing 84 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 1: to the Patriots. Patriots should win this game. I felt 85 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,160 Speaker 1: like the Patriots should win last week against Minnesota. I 86 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 1: don't feel like that today. I don't want to give 87 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: away my pick, but I do think if you could 88 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: pick a spot to have to play Buffalo at home 89 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 1: on a Thursday night, third game in twelve days, all 90 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: on the road for Buffalo is a good spot. Yeah. Yeah, 91 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: it's as good as you could hopeful. Yeah, that's what 92 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 1: I mean. I'm not telling you that, oh, Patriots should 93 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: be embarrassed if they don't win this game. No, no, no, yeah, 94 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 1: I mean I'm sure the Bills are favored. I don't 95 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: know the number, but it was five, is it that? Yeah? Yeah? 96 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: So that's eight? Yeah right, I could do the mat 97 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: right because you get three at home? Right? Right? Yeah. 98 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: I'm just I'm so mature. I can't handle it just 99 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: makes me that in the time, it's actually nowadays, I 100 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: think it might be two and a half, isn't. Please 101 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: don't do it, please, you're gonna confuse him. Please, don't 102 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,679 Speaker 1: we just got him to this point He'll be asking 103 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: what the sharp snow like, Yeah, well, we'll get to 104 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 1: that later. I'm just interested to see what Bill Belichick 105 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 1: has in store for Josh Allen because clearly what you 106 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: did last year did not work. And all off season, 107 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 1: all season long, has been building up to this rematch 108 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: against Allen, and it's like, if Bill is still Bill, right, 109 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: then he's going to have some sort of wrinkle or 110 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: some sort of game plan prepared. That's not just we're 111 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: gonna do what we do and get carved up again 112 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 1: like they did last year. But it's something different, something unique, 113 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 1: something Belichick like. You know, I mean, how many game 114 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: plans have we seen over the years, going all the 115 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 1: way back to his Giants days where people are like, oh, wow, 116 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,919 Speaker 1: like that is. You know, oh, they're playing quarters coverage 117 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: against the Rams and the Super Bowl instead of man 118 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 1: when they were all man in the AFC Championship game. 119 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: You know, there's things like that. And you have these 120 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 1: guys come in Mac Wilson, Jabriel Peppers that you think 121 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: are here to help you in this matchup and draft 122 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: Marcus Jones and Jack Jones again some more. Uh, cornerback, 123 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: depth and speed. What do they happen? It's a good 124 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 1: way to look at it, you know. So let's look 125 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 1: at the last game that they played, or the last 126 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: two games they played against the Bills. They surely the 127 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: lack of speed and depth hurt them on defense, you know, 128 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 1: and plus Judeon like had disappeared by that time. You know. Granted, 129 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: they didn't play as well against Minnesota, but I would 130 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 1: say right now the defense is playing better now than 131 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: they were at the end of last season, right, I think, Yeah, 132 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: I think, and there's no JC Jackson, but I don't 133 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: think that. I think it's a big difference. I think 134 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: it's very similar to the last time they first Buffalo game. Yeah, 135 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: I mean the like of the two really not counting 136 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 1: the win game the other. Yeah, Like they had played 137 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: coming off the buy, they had played a bad game 138 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: against Indie, Right, that was one. It was disappeared by that. 139 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 1: Well I've been meaning t I know, but like they 140 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 1: had been dominant for that seven game winning streak. They 141 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: had one bad game and yeah, then it snowball to 142 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: two bad games and three bad games and four bad 143 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: games even not to bring it up, but I like, 144 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: did you see anything last year that they did from 145 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: the second match up to the third matchup. I know 146 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: that injuries, Jaylen Mills getting COVID and all those things 147 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: that Jonathan Jones, I don't think he played any in 148 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: any of them. But did you see any kind of 149 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 1: like adjustment from you? I mean, I think the game 150 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: here was fairly competitive, right like I mean it was 151 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: not defensively, not offense down the end, but offensively they 152 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: moved the ball a little bit, but defensively they didn't 153 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 1: stop it. Was there any difference between the two game plans? 154 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: I know, it's hard to discern with the person. I 155 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: think that's a problem that they ran into in the 156 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: playoff game was that because of how banged up they 157 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: were in the secondary, they had to rely on the 158 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 1: stuff that they had been relying on all year. You know, 159 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 1: they really couldn't have any exotic game plan wrinkles because 160 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: they were playing guys that literally knew their base defense 161 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: and that was about it. And now I think was 162 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: a big part of it. But I really look at 163 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 1: the second match of the game after Christmas, I was 164 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 1: a week sixteen of last year. I think it was 165 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: as the jumping off point for this game, because I 166 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 1: think the playoff game you were not competitive. So I 167 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: just don't even know what you take away from that 168 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: playoff game of like what can we learn from it 169 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: or anything, well you can learn from it is that 170 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: your effort wasn't good enough. That that's about it. Right. 171 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: So that second game, it was a one score game 172 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter and jac Jackson drops an interception 173 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: with a chance to give the Patriots the ball back 174 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 1: in plus field position. Like that game was closer than 175 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: people remember in some respects, and I think that that's 176 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 1: where they're going to try to jump off from. But 177 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: I think the biggest thing that hurt them in that 178 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 1: second game was playing man coverage against the Buffalo receivers 179 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: and they couldn't cover them Isaiah McKenzie against my Brant, 180 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 1: like j C. Jackson had another tough day against the 181 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 1: fon Diggs. Like they couldn't cover those guys in man coverage. 182 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 1: So when I look at this game and you know, 183 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: kind of break down the xs and nose of what 184 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 1: might they do differently, I look at those safeties that 185 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:17,559 Speaker 1: they have on this roster, and I think Jabriel's gonna play. 186 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: He's he's sick. But I think he walked through the 187 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: locker room. I think Monday like coughing into like a mask. Yeah, 188 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be all right. But I look 189 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 1: at those four safeties and I start to think of 190 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: how can we get all four of them on the 191 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,719 Speaker 1: field together, because that, to me, is gonna be your 192 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: best shot is to play this like amba four safety 193 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 1: zone defense against Buffalo, where you got all of your 194 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: athletes on the field. And this is a Mac Wilson game, 195 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 1: this is a Jabriel Peppers game. And I talked to 196 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: Jabrill Peppers about in the locker room, and of course 197 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: then he went out with an illness, So maybe you 198 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 1: all should stay away from me too. But he I 199 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 1: asked him. I was like, you know, when you watch 200 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,679 Speaker 1: Buffalo and he hasn't played Josh Allen in a game yet, 201 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 1: but when you watch Buffalo, there are not a lot 202 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: of big hits on Josh Allen when he when he runs. 203 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 1: And he was like, well, you know, he's two hundred 204 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: and fifty pounds one and two. There's all these protections 205 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: against quarterbacks, and if you're the guy that lays out 206 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: Josh Allen, then that's a gonna be a fifteen yard 207 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: penalty at the very least, and b you might get 208 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: yourself kicked out of the game. And I'm not saying 209 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: hurt the guy, but I think when he does take 210 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: off to run with the football, I think guys like 211 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 1: Wilson and Jabriel Peppers are going to try to line 212 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: him up because, yeah, I don't know, maybe he doesn't 213 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: run it next time, right, Like, maybe that deters him 214 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 1: from continuing to run the ball. Make him pay, you know. 215 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 1: But like you said, you want to get those safeties 216 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: out there, But the more safeties you have out there, 217 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 1: the more you need that pass rush to get there 218 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: because he can't cover forever, you know. And these guys 219 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 1: might be fast, but they're not great coverage guys, you know, 220 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: And so you've got to compliment that with a pass rush. 221 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 1: You know, that has to improve from last week. So 222 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 1: I like Evan's idea of flooding with safeties and you know, 223 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: in zones because of the running aspect. I think that 224 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 1: helps you against Josh Allen when he takes off, no doubt. Yeah, 225 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:11,959 Speaker 1: And you know, I think it's gonna make it a 226 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: little bit more difficult to find, you know, quick receivers 227 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 1: and quick open guys you know, when you're just flooding 228 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,559 Speaker 1: zones with extra bodies and then you have mobile guys 229 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: who can tackle in space and Dugger and Pepper's in 230 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: mac Wilson, those those kinds of guys should be Now 231 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: I'm not telling you that that it will happen. I'm 232 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 1: saying in theory, they should be more equipped to handle 233 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: Josh Allen when he does. That was a big part 234 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 1: of the game the day after Christmas was Allan's I 235 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:40,319 Speaker 1: think he had eighty one yards rushing in that game, 236 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 1: and some of them were just like an incredible individual efforts. 237 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: I don't expect him to get lit up. I think 238 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: he you know, in terms of the protection, he gets 239 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,079 Speaker 1: no protection. He's like Cam Newton used to be, like 240 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: you can kill him and like you have to hit 241 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 1: him like a day late to get a penalty. He 242 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 1: takes some of the most punishment of a quarter, but 243 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,079 Speaker 1: that's all on him. It's that's the way he runs. 244 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,599 Speaker 1: He doesn't shy away from contact. He's always looking to 245 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 1: knock somebody back. I mean, his own coach says, yeah, 246 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 1: he's got to slide. I still laugh. I still laugh 247 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: about the opening night when they were playing the rams 248 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: and listening to you know, we talked to Sean McDermott 249 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: and and they want Josh Allen to be smarter this 250 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 1: year and to go out of bounds and to not 251 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 1: And then like the first third down of the game, 252 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,440 Speaker 1: he's lowering his shoulder and knocking a linebacker over, and 253 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: like the next one that one guy's got his leg 254 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 1: like a wishbone. Remember that we're holding his leg up 255 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 1: when he was like in the ear and one guy's 256 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,079 Speaker 1: holding his leg. I'm like, that's what. He just can't 257 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 1: play that way. I don't know how long it's gonna last, 258 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: because you know it's gonna happen. It didn't last that 259 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: long eight or nine years for that elbow. Really good 260 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,679 Speaker 1: play right for the elbow. Yeah, I don't know how 261 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:51,320 Speaker 1: long it's gonna last. But for now, I mean, he's 262 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: he's just a beast. It's such a tough position too, 263 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,200 Speaker 1: for like a defensive back, because how many times have 264 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 1: you seen him he's like a freight train running towards you. 265 00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 1: But then he just pulls up and throws the ball 266 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 1: over your head. So like on one hand, you're like 267 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: bracing for the oncoming train that's about to run over 268 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 1: you and then just as you do, he just you know, 269 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,319 Speaker 1: he makes those kind of places. So I worry a 270 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: little bit about Dawson Knox too. They hadn't really talked 271 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: a lot about him, and I think he's an okay 272 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: tight end. I think he's a good player. I just 273 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 1: worry a little bit about the Patriots and their consistency 274 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: against tight ends if they're going to be doing some 275 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: of this stuff that they're worried about. Josh Allen kind 276 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: of kind of get lost as he get lost in 277 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 1: the middle of the field, opens up and you know, 278 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: you think you got him, and all of a sudden, 279 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 1: it's a fifteen yard pass to knock. I mean, we 280 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: could talk all about these exotic things. I think Evan's right, 281 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,440 Speaker 1: Like I said, I think the zone thing, you know, 282 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: against that makes sense, Like what else could you possibly 283 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 1: see them? But it's gonna come down. So can the 284 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 1: Patriots move the ball and score? Because if they don't, 285 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 1: they're not going to keep up, right, because they're not 286 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: holding this team to ten points? Right. I just think 287 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: you gotta ay, you know, the biggest thing is you 288 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: gotta do something different, right like you can't. It's definition 289 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 1: of insanity. If you go out there and you put 290 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 1: the same matchups out on the field and expect it 291 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 1: to go differently for you. But I think that whether 292 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: it's zone and all these safeties on the field, whether 293 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 1: mac Wilson is a dedicated quarterback spy the whole game 294 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 1: and he's kind of the Allen player, right who just 295 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 1: follows Josh Allen around, you gotta make Josh Allen make 296 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: a decision. Okay. Where they get killed is the extended 297 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: plays is when he has all day to throw and 298 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 1: he's kind of scanning the field and then he breaks 299 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 1: the pocket and pulls the zone with him, and then 300 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 1: all these big plays happen as a result of that. So, 301 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 1: whether it's him taking off or it's him making a throw, 302 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: you gotta make him make a decision quickly. You can't 303 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 1: just let him sit there and take over the game. 304 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 1: And he has thrown picks. Yeah, so if and when 305 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: he does, you got to you gotta make hay out 306 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: of that. You gotta catch him. Well, no, you gotta 307 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: catch it. But if you do get it, you gotta 308 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 1: get points out of it. You know, you can't just 309 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: like get the turnover and then just give it back 310 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: to them. After three plays, you gotta turn it into points, 311 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 1: right because those are those are the differences that you're 312 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 1: hoping for in this game. And that's what I worry about, 313 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 1: is like, are we just asking for too many new 314 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 1: things to suddenly magically appear here on Thursday night in 315 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: week thirteen? You know, like that's the that's that's steak 316 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: into that sum. Yeah. I just I don't know what. 317 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: I'm excited to see how it goes. I just agree 318 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 1: with Evan, they got it. They gotta have something different. 319 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: Well to do something different, just think about thinking about 320 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 1: this game. The last the first four games that he 321 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 1: played against the Patriots, a Patriot's handleman pretty well, you know, 322 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: it was like fifty five percent completions whatever they held 323 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 1: him and checked the last four times. It's thirteen touchdowns, 324 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 1: no picks, one hundred and twenty three pass or raining 325 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 1: and that counts the game in the Gale Force wins. Yeah, 326 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: that counts that game. That's one of the four. So 327 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 1: to Evan's point, you can't just keep doing the same 328 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 1: thing that ain't working. You gotta do something different. Yeah. 329 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 1: I think the biggest thing too, to Fred's point about 330 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 1: the pass rush they have gotten caught in this like 331 00:15:54,840 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 1: mush Rush, you know, try trash can pack theirs against 332 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 1: him in the past where they're not actually putting any 333 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 1: pressure on him, and he's just you know, Bill said 334 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: at the podium the other day, we can't just watch 335 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 1: him throw the ball. And it felt like in that 336 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: game again in Week sixteen last year, he was just 337 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: We're watching him throw the football the whole game. And 338 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 1: if I'm the Patriots, I I dial it up like 339 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: I come after because you might lose some downs that way, 340 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: and you and you run the risk of giving up 341 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: some big plays when your guys are on islands, but 342 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 1: you also might win some downs, right, and this is 343 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 1: gonna be one of those boxing matches where they're gonna 344 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: get a few punches in. Like it's they're not going 345 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 1: to hold them to ten points, like Paul said, So 346 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: if you can I'm not saying necessarily zero blitz him 347 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 1: or anything like that, but if you can get some 348 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: pressure on him where you do win some series or 349 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 1: you do get a turnover, then you can kind of 350 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 1: offset some of the big plays you give up. But 351 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: you can't just stand there. You can't just watch them. 352 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 1: Mike's Roundtable. I like to sometimes throw out random stats 353 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,120 Speaker 1: or whatever. I really got to start reading this, but 354 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 1: but I threw out that what we're hoping for, or 355 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,440 Speaker 1: what I'm hoping for, is four four drives where the 356 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,479 Speaker 1: Patriots make them punt, where they don't score points. Four 357 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 1: punts on four of their possessions, you know, and then 358 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: you hope you keep up with them points wise for 359 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 1: the rest. But are you're saying four drives that they 360 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 1: don't score, they don't score? Okay, that I think that's 361 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: I mean, that's reasonable because I mean four punts. I 362 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 1: think that's that's gonna lie. But four drives that they 363 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 1: don't score. Think back to that game that Evan's talking 364 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 1: about on Christmas. You had a fourth and one that 365 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 1: Emmanuel Sanders dropped the hit him in the face like 366 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:39,359 Speaker 1: he like that. That that's a drive that they didn't score, 367 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 1: but you didn't make the punt. I think that could happen, 368 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 1: you know, for one play all you know, all of 369 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: a sudden, you know, they get a penalty and you know, 370 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 1: third and fifteen becomes fourth and three because thirty and 371 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: they go. What's the average amount of pus in a game, 372 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: like eight to ten? Ten? Ten? Yeah, you know, so 373 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 1: they're still going to score points. Yeah, but give give 374 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: us a breather. On four drives. You know that that 375 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: was a fourth down explosion that game three for four 376 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,159 Speaker 1: and the Patriots were five for six. Now, do you 377 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 1: think that aggressiveness is a feature of Buffalo now or 378 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,360 Speaker 1: do you think that that was a feature of Buffalo 379 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 1: against the Patriots? And if it was just for the Patriots, 380 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 1: do you think they'll maintain that aggressive mindset going against 381 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 1: this Patriots team that they haven't really had to maintain 382 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,679 Speaker 1: that aggressive mindset necessarily. I think that's the way they 383 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,719 Speaker 1: play much. I think that's the way almost everybody plays now. 384 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: It's it's amazing when you watch these games, how you 385 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: automatically just say, oh, yeah, they'll go for it like 386 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 1: that's it was so jarring in the I don't know 387 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: if you guys watched the Raiders and Seahawks. It was 388 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: like third and one from like the thirty five yard 389 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 1: line in overtime, thirty six yard line the Raiders, you know, 390 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: Josh Josh Jacobs gets caught in the backfield. It's fourth 391 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 1: in a long one maybe two. I was stunned the 392 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,400 Speaker 1: field goal. I was stunned when the field goal unit 393 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: came out. I'm like, this is what everybody from everybody 394 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 1: else goes for here, and then he ended ended up 395 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: working out. He missed the field goal, but they got 396 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: a three and out and won the game anyway. But 397 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 1: I mean I was taken aback by that. I couldn't 398 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 1: believe that they were going for a field goal on 399 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 1: fourth and short. You think the Patriots need to be 400 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: that aggressive against the Bills, Like that's the one thing 401 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: I probably would take, Like, this is a game where 402 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 1: you gotta get sevens. I think if you're say beyond 403 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:25,640 Speaker 1: you of forty forty five, I think, and it's less 404 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 1: than five, you know, you know I'm not going for 405 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 1: fourth and eleven for my own forty three. I mean, 406 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 1: that doesn't that's not smart either. But yeah, I think 407 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 1: they'll they'll roll that. Like I said, they were five 408 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: for six on fourth downd last year in that game. 409 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,400 Speaker 1: I also just wandered too, to Fred's point that they're 410 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 1: going to get their points. They get them early if 411 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 1: they get like the first drive, you know, like they 412 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 1: get up ten nothing, you know, like a lot. It 413 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 1: feels like it depends on how the game unfolds. And 414 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 1: while I expect them to get their points. I just 415 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 1: I also feel like if the Patriots all of a 416 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:53,880 Speaker 1: sudden in a ten nothing hole on the third possession 417 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 1: of the game, and you know, and they're chasing already 418 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,199 Speaker 1: and they're starting to press and they're feeling the pressure 419 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 1: of the red zoom and all those below. Yeah, I 420 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:05,160 Speaker 1: just it's it's it's big on the coin toss. If 421 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: do you take the ball? No, I defer neither. The 422 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 1: wind five five past five hundred is the a ticket 423 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: hot line eight five five past five hundred web radio 424 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:20,160 Speaker 1: at Patriots dot com as the email address. Uh, it's 425 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:24,120 Speaker 1: Saturday today, so there's a walkthrough with the team which 426 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 1: we won't have access to, so Evan doesn't have to return. 427 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: Just want to let people know that. Um but email 428 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 1: from Derek, he says. This morning, Jeff Howe of The 429 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 1: Athletic Old Friend wrote an article about the possibility of 430 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,920 Speaker 1: Tom Brady coming back to New England this offseason. I 431 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 1: know this is all speculation, but you guys think this 432 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,919 Speaker 1: would be something to consider or do we as New 433 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:49,680 Speaker 1: England fans need to move on? Well, I mean everybody 434 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 1: knows I hate Brady, so no way. Well that's truth. 435 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,159 Speaker 1: For you. See, I'm not telling you what you need 436 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:58,160 Speaker 1: talk about that. I think I don't want to say 437 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: zero but less than one. Why why? Yeah, as much 438 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: as I would love to have him back here, I 439 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:10,159 Speaker 1: just don't Yeah, I would, yeah, m as much as 440 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 1: I would love it, I don't think it's I don't 441 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 1: think it's in the best interest of the team. Believe 442 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,360 Speaker 1: it or not. Yeah, you know, I just don't understand. 443 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 1: It would make me happy, but I don't think it's 444 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 1: the best thing to do. I just don't understand it 445 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:24,199 Speaker 1: from from our perspectively, from the Patriots perspective, you bring 446 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: in a forty six year old Tom Brady, and then 447 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:33,160 Speaker 1: you have who running the offense? I mean you, Tom, 448 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 1: You remember Matt. He was on the defensive side of 449 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: the ball when you're here. But he's got a new offense. 450 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 1: He's gonna share it with you. Tell us what you think. 451 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 1: Oh cute, Why don't you go over there. I'll take 452 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 1: care of this, I guess yeah. And then you also 453 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:46,239 Speaker 1: are gonna do what to upgrade the pieces around him, 454 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: right like, because he want to come here now. Because 455 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,679 Speaker 1: if you're the pieces around him get upgraded because of him. 456 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 1: But if you're pushing all in. Then you're pushing all in, 457 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 1: like if you're if you're bringing Brady back, I assume 458 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 1: that it would be because Belichick is coaching his last 459 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 1: year or two, and he push the chips all in. 460 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 1: A Rogers I just like the Bill thought he was 461 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 1: too old at forty three, let's bring him back. At 462 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,440 Speaker 1: you guys, to me, it's not gonna happen. It sets 463 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 1: your franchise back, like it really does. It's not in 464 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 1: the best interest of the team. But you think differently 465 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:23,919 Speaker 1: of Rogers, No, I don't. But I've just well Rogers, 466 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 1: Rogers conceivably has three or four more years, right, I 467 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 1: don't feel differently about Rogers. My thing with Rogers is 468 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 1: just I think it would be cool to see I've 469 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 1: already seen Brady and Belichick together, like I just want 470 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 1: to I just think it would be cool to see. 471 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 1: Totally totally fair, Um, that's what That's why they call it, 472 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 1: you know, fanatic. It's not always rational, and I get 473 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,480 Speaker 1: that that's that's totally But Fred, if you were watching 474 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 1: both of those guys, if you watch Brady Sunday and 475 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 1: you watch Rogers Sunday, would you say one of those 476 00:22:58,320 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 1: guys has three or four more years than the other. 477 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: Left couldn't tell Rogers is hurt right now. Yeah, yeah, okay, 478 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,959 Speaker 1: that's my point. I know. But like, I don't think 479 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: he has three or four more years more than Brady Left. 480 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 1: I think I think I don't think they'll be done 481 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 1: roughly the same time. Okay, I do I think this. 482 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 1: I think Rodgers is hurt right now, but I think 483 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 1: I think he could play another three four more years. 484 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 1: I will reiterate what I said about a month and 485 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: a half ago. He also doesn't care well. I actually 486 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 1: I really liked what Aaron Rodgers said yesterday. I think 487 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 1: they pulled a clip from from one of the talk 488 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: shows about have been McAfee, where like, you know, are 489 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: you gonna play if you're hurt? And he actually went 490 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,160 Speaker 1: on like this whole thing like if you're a competitive 491 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 1: athlete and you have the competitive juices, like I'm gonna 492 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 1: be out there like no question, like you know question. 493 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:41,680 Speaker 1: He said all the right things. I mean, usually he 494 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: doesn't say any of the right things anyway, but but 495 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: I was it was a rare moment of like, hey, 496 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 1: all right, you know I like that. I also think 497 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: to your Rogers point that I think you made that 498 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 1: point after next year with Mac, and if you get 499 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 1: through year three with Mac and you're like, you know what, right, Nope, 500 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: And then at that point maybe that's the kind of 501 00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 1: option that that maybe would make sense, even if it 502 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 1: is just like for a bridge kind of thing or 503 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: you know, year or two. Right, all right, five five pats, 504 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: five hundred. Let's go to the a sticket hout line. 505 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 1: We got a busy show. We've got picks still later on, though, 506 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 1: is Big Head in the building, do we know? I 507 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:15,880 Speaker 1: don't think so. No, there's no press conference in Oh yeah, 508 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 1: it's Saturday, Fred, It's Saturday. But Catch twenty two will 509 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,640 Speaker 1: be after, will be Catch twenty two after this show? 510 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 1: Patty and Aguam's on the line. What's up shop? Everyone? Hey, Hey, Patty, 511 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: Hey Patty. So, I think I might be the one 512 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,639 Speaker 1: fan that could put Fred to shame as far as 513 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 1: being a Homer, you know, big footy patriot, footy, pajama 514 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:44,159 Speaker 1: wearing homer or fan. But I don't know. To me, 515 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:47,160 Speaker 1: I just I have a hard time seeing them pulling 516 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:50,159 Speaker 1: this game out. I could think of scenarios where they 517 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 1: couldn't win the game, But to me, it's just it's like, 518 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 1: you know, you're playing scenario and playing situational bingo where 519 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 1: you gotta hit like bingo twice on the board to 520 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 1: end up pulling this game out. Now, I do think 521 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: it's going to be competitive, and to me, one of 522 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: the big things, one of the big outliers is, and 523 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 1: this might sound ridiculous, is not having Christian Barrow Moore 524 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:14,479 Speaker 1: on the line. So like, hopefully kind of forgotten about him, 525 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 1: haven't we. We haven't mentioned him in a while. That's 526 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 1: a good that's a good shout out there because he's 527 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 1: not been playing for how many games now for too well, 528 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 1: oh yeah, he's been on an I R for two. 529 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: But yeah, he's also really hasn't played very well this year. 530 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: Well I assume that that's injury related, but that's debatable. 531 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 1: There was a stretch where people said he was doing 532 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,400 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff to help others. There was free 533 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 1: up others. I think I think got a lot of 534 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: double teams. People saw signs in one game. I thought, Okay, 535 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 1: I mean I chalk that up to health. I think 536 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,440 Speaker 1: he hasn't been healthy. I think it was Marcus Spears 537 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:51,719 Speaker 1: yesterday and on the NFL Show on ESPN whatever it's called, um, 538 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 1: but he was pointing that out. He said, you know, 539 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 1: after watching the Vikings game, he said, New England just 540 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: not getting any pressure on the inside. They don't really 541 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 1: have anybody what a healthy bar more of health than 542 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 1: that game. You gotta imagine. Yes, yeah, yeah, I think so. 543 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's this this another game. You 544 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 1: want him, but what you gonna do got Daniel quality 545 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,400 Speaker 1: in there. It hasn't been a huge far more year 546 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 1: and there's still second in the league in sacks, like 547 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,880 Speaker 1: third in pressure rate. So I'm not saying that he's 548 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,359 Speaker 1: not important. I just think that they have gotten pressure 549 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 1: in other ways. But Judon mentioned that the Vikings. I 550 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 1: teen him up for it. The Viking has definitely paid 551 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: more attention to Judon last week than he's seen in 552 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 1: other games. Chips tight ends, staying and on his side, 553 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: you know, things like that. And he said, well, that's 554 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,479 Speaker 1: fine with me. If other teams are going to bring 555 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 1: all this attention over to my side, that's fine. But 556 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 1: then the other guy's got to step up and make plays, 557 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: you know. Ja Dietrich wise, like those guys have to 558 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: take advantage of one on ones, which I think is 559 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 1: a bigger indictment of what happened on Thursday night was 560 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 1: that I don't know if those guys really stepped up. 561 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 1: Uj had the one sack that was a big one 562 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 1: in the red zone, but outside of that, it wasn't 563 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: a big game for either one of those two. So 564 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 1: he also mentioned schematically the coaching staff has to take 565 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 1: advantage of the fact that there's one on ones in 566 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 1: other places, right and figure out ways to get those 567 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:12,400 Speaker 1: guys loose. So if that happens again, especially with Dawkins out, 568 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: they might be doing the same thing with Judean, then 569 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 1: you know it's on Dietrich Wise and Josh you Drew 570 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 1: have had good years that Dietrich Wise in particular to 571 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 1: get after the quarterback. Thanks Patty Um. Let's go to 572 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 1: Kiernan in San Francisco. What's up, Kernan? Hey, how's it going, guys? 573 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 1: Hoping it's a good Wednesday Saturday for you? Sure you 574 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,400 Speaker 1: like three quick points? One you've got an emailer from 575 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,879 Speaker 1: Colfax and none of you And now were Colfax is 576 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: the small town in his Year of Foothills by Sak 577 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 1: Just a nice tidbit. Okay, you're just talking about Barmore. 578 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 1: That's a new point I brought up. Do you think 579 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 1: Wise was going off because Barmore had all this attention? 580 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 1: And then lastly, Mike mentioned that, you know, if we 581 00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 1: get this all star receiver, we're kind of in the 582 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 1: same spot the Vikings are. And Paul has mentioned multiple 583 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 1: times that, you know, good teams are good offensives can 584 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 1: still make a Super Bowl without an ol line or 585 00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 1: a strong old line. Do you guys think that maybe 586 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,239 Speaker 1: our focus should be more on the defensive front when 587 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,959 Speaker 1: it comes to roster building in the future. I mean, 588 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 1: you know, look at the Bengals. They didn't have a 589 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,239 Speaker 1: great and they got to the Super Bowl. I mean, 590 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 1: so it's it's it's a good question, you know, like 591 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 1: you can't have a bad offensive line though, you know, 592 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 1: unless you've got a great quarterback, you know, like a 593 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 1: Tom Brady can overcome it. I don't think Matt Jones can. Yeah, 594 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 1: so you're gonna have to You're gonna have to pay 595 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 1: attention to this offensive line in the off season. You know, 596 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to do something. I mean, just look 597 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: at the league. You know, it's like look at the 598 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 1: look at who the contending teams are. Look how good 599 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 1: Miami is all of a sudden with Tyreek Kill. You're 600 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 1: not gonna get Tyreek Kill this offseason. But I just think, 601 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, and I say this as a 602 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 1: guy who really enjoys defensive football, It's like it doesn't 603 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 1: really matter. Like you need a team that can make 604 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 1: some stops down the stretch against good teams, but at 605 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 1: the end of the day, everybody's gonna score. It's just 606 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: a matter of do you have an offense that can 607 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 1: score with them and is your team able to execute 608 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: at the end of the game. So it's you know, 609 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: to try to build a defense that's gonna shut down 610 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 1: Kansas City and Buffalo and Cincinnati and Miami. You know, 611 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: it just seems can you sue a defense? Can you 612 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: stress a defense? What I'm wearing? Can you avoid being 613 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,719 Speaker 1: easy to defend? And I think it's and I think 614 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 1: it's easier to stress, you know, to make a couple 615 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 1: moves with you know, one or two guys, I mean 616 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 1: Miami being an example, getting a left tackle and getting 617 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 1: hill this year. But you know, with a couple moves, 618 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 1: you can elevate an offense and really, you know, change 619 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 1: some of that dynamic says, I think it's harder to 620 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: do on defense. Even if you get you know, a 621 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: shutdown corner, sure that's gonna, you know, help you out 622 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: in the matchups. Or you know, you have a great 623 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 1: von Miller off the edge finish or kind of guy. 624 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 1: Everybody wants that kind of guy. But I think overall, 625 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 1: you just you need to you need to address this 626 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 1: offense coming into the offseason. And you know, I mean, 627 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 1: I don't know if anybody else watched it, but Boomer 628 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 1: size or Boomer size Warner, Yeah, I watched his whole 629 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 1: hour long dissection of the Patriots offense. Again. Yeah, well 630 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: I put up I did double speeds. It was thirty 631 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 1: an hour. He did an hour on the vikings and 632 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: Mac Jones and and everything, and I mean, you know, 633 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 1: there's nothing new that we haven't talked about. But but 634 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 1: his thing is that if you're going to run simple concepts, 635 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 1: you gotta do them really well. And New England is 636 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 1: off on all the details right now. And it's, you know, 637 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 1: mac same thing we've talked about at you know, Mac Eyes, 638 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 1: not in the right spot at the right time, not 639 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 1: getting the ball out at the right time to make 640 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: the play. Routes being too closely spaced. Um, you know, so, 641 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 1: I mean, he didn't kill Patricia, but he did kill 642 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 1: just the overall details of everything, and that's something that yeah, 643 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:45,719 Speaker 1: you know, the finer points. And I think that's when 644 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 1: we talked about a defensive guy coming in. There's so 645 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 1: much that goes into planning offensive football and so many 646 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 1: things that you learn and you're like, god, it seems 647 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: so complex to me. How do they know to go 648 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 1: to this play? To this play? And you know, and 649 00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 1: and and Warner you know, dips on it a little 650 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 1: bit talking about out you know, we are we already 651 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 1: ran this once. Now you're doing it again. Why are 652 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 1: you screwing everything up and going to the wrong side 653 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:07,479 Speaker 1: of the field. So it was just it was interesting 654 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 1: you mentioned like spacing, Yeah, on routes seems simple, But 655 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 1: that's coaching. That's coaching. That's going over and over it 656 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 1: again in practice and making sure you don't end the 657 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 1: practice until you get it right. I mean. And it's 658 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 1: and it's like when that Dan Orlosky thing first came out, 659 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 1: you know, you're kind of like, ah, he seems very 660 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: angry about this, like what's going on? But it keeps 661 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: popping up it's got you know. I mean, you know, 662 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 1: I'm not going to teach a class on route spacing, 663 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 1: but I know when there are two guys right close together, 664 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 1: they ain't getting the ball, you know. So it's it's 665 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 1: I tend to try to give a little bit of 666 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 1: benefit of the doubt, but you just keep hearing the 667 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: same things over and over again that this is not 668 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 1: a detailed oriented offense. It's very simple, and teams aren't 669 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 1: really going to be full by it, and you don't 670 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 1: have the athletes to outplay them within those simple schemes. 671 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 1: You so your execution has to be flawless, you know, 672 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 1: being on the same page. You know, a lot of 673 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 1: times you get that guys are in the same area 674 00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 1: and you know that that's not the way it was 675 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 1: drawn up. And a lot of it is, well, you know, 676 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 1: a route adjustment. I thought when this happened, I was 677 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 1: supposed to do this, and the other guy isn't on 678 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 1: the same page and you end up in the same place. 679 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: I just wonder, have you asked any of the guys, like, 680 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 1: how much of the route adjustment post out they do 681 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 1: still now? Is that still part of I mean, sure, yeah, 682 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 1: it's still part of it. But I would say most 683 00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 1: of what they're doing now is like site adjustment stuff 684 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 1: where Okay, I'm gonna sit this route down instead of 685 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 1: like continuing, or I'm gonna break it, you know out 686 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 1: instead of being But all that kind of stuff is 687 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 1: pretty common across the league. What they used to do before, 688 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 1: we're like full on option routes, which were totally different. 689 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 1: You know, that was more Julian Edelman on the Juke series, 690 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:44,960 Speaker 1: you know, make a move and get open type of stuff. Right. 691 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 1: You know, this is more of conversions, I would say, 692 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: based off of the coverage than choice or option routes. 693 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 1: But they ran I can't probably a dozen times they 694 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 1: ran the same play against the Vikings over and over 695 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 1: and over again, double dig right, two dig routes on 696 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 1: the passing strength with the vertical on the back side, 697 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 1: and they ended up hitting Davante Parker on the big 698 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 1: big throw was on that concept because the Vikings overplayed 699 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 1: the two receiver side. But I mean every single time 700 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 1: they needed a play, like every time it was third 701 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 1: down and medium or long or they wanted to get 702 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 1: the drive started or hit a big play down the field, 703 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: they ran the same exact concept. And I think that 704 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 1: there are some some truth to that that it is simplistic, 705 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 1: it is rudimentary. Um, you know it worked against Minnesota. 706 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: They after for almost four hundred yards, So I can't 707 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 1: say it wasn't successful against the Vikings. But maybe that 708 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,719 Speaker 1: says more about the Vikings, Karen. And that's just one, 709 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 1: just one point to make on top of that was 710 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 1: just that you know, Warner was saying like it's it's okay, 711 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 1: like they have some good concepts. We're not saying that, 712 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 1: but it has to be executed perfectly. And that's that's 713 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 1: where that's where the dis kind of and and I 714 00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:56,239 Speaker 1: think everything you guys talked about was fair, but there 715 00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 1: was a phrase that Fred used that I kind of 716 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 1: agree with. And I is critical, as you guys know, 717 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: of the whole plan, right, we talked about that a 718 00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 1: million times. But when you see two guys in the 719 00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 1: same area, my initial reaction, and you see this around 720 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:12,879 Speaker 1: the league, you know someone screwed up there. I never think, 721 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 1: look at this team, look at this coaching, look at 722 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:17,799 Speaker 1: this play design, like which is where Ilovsky does every 723 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 1: time he breaks down the film. It's Matt Patricia is 724 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 1: satan And you know this is what this is what 725 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:25,840 Speaker 1: he devised. I just and I'm not giving Matt Patricia, 726 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 1: Joe Judge, and Bill Belichick a pass because a lot 727 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 1: of this is on them. You know, Evan just told you. 728 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:32,880 Speaker 1: They're running the same plays over and over and over again. 729 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 1: They are kind of simplistic. But I just can't blame 730 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 1: them for saying, well, they told those two guys to 731 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 1: go out and be within the yard of each other 732 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,760 Speaker 1: where they turned around right like on the practice field. 733 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,520 Speaker 1: It can't look like that. Like to me, some of 734 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:48,799 Speaker 1: this has got to be on execution on the player's part. Yeah. 735 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:50,320 Speaker 1: I wondered that too, some of it. And I wonder, 736 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: I wonder how much they're not translating what their route 737 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 1: is supposed to be based on the defense that they're seeing. 738 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:57,480 Speaker 1: And you know a lot of things that that Warner 739 00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 1: was kind of diagramming. It's just that you're you're you're 740 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 1: making it harder on everybody. You're bringing guy, you're giving 741 00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:04,359 Speaker 1: guys leverage, you're bringing other guys, you're making it easy 742 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 1: on them. You know, you're running right into them so 743 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 1: they don't even have to move. That was a kind 744 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,560 Speaker 1: of a recurring theme of it was, you know, you know, 745 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:12,840 Speaker 1: right off the snap, you're not instantly kind of forcing 746 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,560 Speaker 1: their hand or making them to make any kind of declaration. 747 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 1: You're letting them just kind of sit there and be like, okay, 748 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 1: you're coming right at me, what are you gonna do? 749 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 1: And I saw a clip that Orlovsky put up of 750 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 1: the Ravens and their game on Sunday against Jacksonville, and 751 00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:28,280 Speaker 1: he showed there were two deep routes on the left 752 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 1: where someone r one ran a post, one ran a corner, 753 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 1: so there was like, you know, they're looking to take 754 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 1: a shot. They had a tight end clearing out underneath 755 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 1: coming across, and what I think a back going the 756 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:46,520 Speaker 1: same direction as the tight end coming across, so going 757 00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:50,560 Speaker 1: to the right, which completely took Lamar Jackson's ability to 758 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 1: you know, okay, if if they're on this deep stuff 759 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 1: and you needed to have somebody come over in the 760 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 1: left flat to occupy there was a zone guy underneath 761 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 1: and balance it up. The guy wasn't threatened by anybody 762 00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 1: because there was no one there, and he drops back 763 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,839 Speaker 1: and he completely eliminated any chance they had taken a shot. 764 00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:11,799 Speaker 1: And Orloski's explaining this play, and I don't know if 765 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,560 Speaker 1: he's right. He could be wrong, right, just like any 766 00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,640 Speaker 1: other any other guy, and he's saying, either the back 767 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 1: or the tight end does the wrong thing here, And 768 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 1: he surmised that it was probably the back because the 769 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,919 Speaker 1: tight end dragging across underneath is makes a lot of sense. 770 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,240 Speaker 1: The back has got to come over into the flat 771 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 1: to make somebody pay attention to him, otherwise you're given 772 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:35,320 Speaker 1: him fifteen twenty four yards. And the back and the 773 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,719 Speaker 1: tight end ended up in the same spot, so we 774 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 1: had no outlet, and he ended up throwing it away 775 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:44,320 Speaker 1: over Devin DuVernay's head down because he wasn't open. But 776 00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: he didn't like attack Greg Roman. He didn't make it 777 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 1: a personal vendetta. It was on the players, like, I 778 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 1: don't think this is designed to this way now. Greg 779 00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:58,920 Speaker 1: Roman gets a lot of heat exactly for his rudimentary 780 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 1: passing concept, but he didn't make it a personal attack. 781 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:05,120 Speaker 1: He looked at and said, these two guys ended up 782 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 1: underneath a safety valves in the same spot. One of 783 00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:09,480 Speaker 1: them screwed up. Yeah, yeah, if it was a Patriot, 784 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:13,279 Speaker 1: he would have said, I actually don't really have a 785 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 1: huge issue with most of their passing concepts and what 786 00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: they run and the fact that they run a lot 787 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:20,480 Speaker 1: of the same things. The biggest issue that I have 788 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 1: with their offensive play design is that they're not They 789 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 1: don't help guys use their skill sets to the upmost 790 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 1: of their abilities. Like, for example, everybody keeps asking me, like, 791 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 1: where's Taekwon Thorton? Like why is Taekwon Thorton? That's a 792 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,320 Speaker 1: fair question. Why is he? Why is he? Another bust? 793 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:40,719 Speaker 1: Like is it what's going on with him? And the 794 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 1: thing that I see on the film is that all 795 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:44,960 Speaker 1: they're asking him to do is run go routes. He 796 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,320 Speaker 1: just runs go routes the entire game. It just runs 797 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,399 Speaker 1: up the field the entire game. And his only job, 798 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: and his only reason for being on the field is 799 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 1: to create space for others underneath the defense. And maybe 800 00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,439 Speaker 1: that's okay, but you can't take a shot to him. Well. 801 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 1: The problem that I have is is that if I 802 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:06,400 Speaker 1: were going to see it tomorrow night with Isaiah McKenzie, 803 00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 1: Isaiah McKenzie runs twenty crossing routes a game. That's all 804 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 1: they do. They send him on a crossing route from 805 00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:16,879 Speaker 1: left to right, and they do it from right to left, 806 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 1: and all they're doing is creating foot races for him. 807 00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:23,520 Speaker 1: That's it. He's a four two guy. There's not a 808 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:25,239 Speaker 1: whole lot of guys on the planet that can keep 809 00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 1: up with him in man coverage. And eventually he's just 810 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,040 Speaker 1: going to run away from somebody and we're going to 811 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,800 Speaker 1: hit him down the field. And sure enough against the Lions, 812 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 1: they hit a touchdown to him from like thirty yards 813 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 1: out on a crossing route. And that's all he does. 814 00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:41,120 Speaker 1: It's jet sweeps, it's drags, it's deep crossers, and his 815 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: whole route trees, crossing routes. And I look at the 816 00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:46,839 Speaker 1: Patriots with Taikwon, and I'm like, you have the same 817 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:50,319 Speaker 1: guy on your You have a four two eight explosive 818 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: speed receiver that you don't do that with. You just 819 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 1: don't create foot races with him. You don't use him 820 00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,319 Speaker 1: to make any sort of threat to the defense other 821 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 1: than a vertical thread of Oh, let's just keep the 822 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:04,759 Speaker 1: safety over the top of him, because we have to, 823 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 1: like there's a place for that. But if you're really 824 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 1: gonna unlock the player and get production out of him, 825 00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:12,320 Speaker 1: then you have to do a little bit more with 826 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:14,319 Speaker 1: a player like that. You want Marcus Jones on him, 827 00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 1: don't you tomorrow. Absolutely, But that's besides that, I know. 828 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:20,920 Speaker 1: But see the thing, like Devin said, and like this 829 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 1: just kind of goes to the bigger point to me, 830 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:24,320 Speaker 1: is and that was it was something you know, you 831 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:26,359 Speaker 1: hear these like mantras that you come to believe over 832 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:28,879 Speaker 1: twenty years of the Patriots are so good at putting 833 00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 1: players in position to be successful, you know, and you know, 834 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,719 Speaker 1: not to say that that the offense being complex necessarily 835 00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 1: means that it's better than anything else, but it's just 836 00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:41,200 Speaker 1: it's so striking to me to hear these kind of 837 00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:43,400 Speaker 1: things that they're getting away from on offense and all 838 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,040 Speaker 1: these things that you're hearing about, you know, whether whether 839 00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:48,320 Speaker 1: it's the coaching, whether it's the players, whatever it is, 840 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 1: what's on the field right now, it doesn't look like 841 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,920 Speaker 1: a well orchestrated team. And that just continues to be 842 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:56,960 Speaker 1: jarring to me for a team that over twenty years 843 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,759 Speaker 1: we heard about how their attention to detail. What's the 844 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:02,400 Speaker 1: big problem right now the details they put guys in 845 00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 1: position to see they're not pulling guys in position to 846 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:06,200 Speaker 1: see seeds. So it's you know, it's it's it's there's 847 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: so many issues going on that it's it's it seems 848 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:11,239 Speaker 1: like a philosophical kind of thing almost more than just 849 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:12,759 Speaker 1: like you want to boil it down to X's and 850 00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 1: O's and Joe Jimmy's and Joe's and all that. But 851 00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 1: I just I don't know why they've gotten away from 852 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 1: what has worked, and it just seems like they can't 853 00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:22,400 Speaker 1: really get back to it at this point. It's just 854 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 1: that things have been inconsistent, There've been mistakes. You know, 855 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 1: Mac looks like he doesn't know what's going on anymore. 856 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:31,880 Speaker 1: I just I after watching that thing, I came out 857 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 1: of it being like, I hope that I hope they 858 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 1: have a good showing against the Bills. But I really 859 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:36,759 Speaker 1: feel like I'm kind of hoping against hope that all 860 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,160 Speaker 1: of a sudden, all of this stuff, all of it 861 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,320 Speaker 1: is going to be fixed for a game. Maybe it 862 00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:43,520 Speaker 1: could get be fixed for a game five more games. 863 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think you turn on like the 864 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 1: Bills or the Miami Dolphins or Tiree Kill, and people say, well, 865 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:52,920 Speaker 1: Tiree kills just on a different planet from everybody else, right, 866 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 1: his speed is just different than anybody else in the league. 867 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:58,239 Speaker 1: Go watch the Chiefs offense and go watch how they 868 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 1: use McCole Hardman, Right, Micole Hardman is the exact same 869 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 1: player that you drafted in Tae Kwon Thornton, okay, and 870 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:10,200 Speaker 1: they just do all game long. He's running jet motions, 871 00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:14,359 Speaker 1: he's running crossers, he's running verticals like that's his whole game, 872 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,799 Speaker 1: and they just find ways. It's like it's like tag 873 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 1: on the playground. You have the fastest kid on the playground, 874 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 1: so just run him around the field and find ways 875 00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 1: to get him the ball in space. And that's what 876 00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:27,320 Speaker 1: all these other offenses do with their speed receivers. And 877 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:29,680 Speaker 1: then we got poor Tai Kwon is trying to bring 878 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 1: press coverage on the outside on a go route twenty 879 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 1: times a game. He's he's, he's I've noticed it too 880 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:37,359 Speaker 1: in these games though, when he gets pressed and guys 881 00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:39,320 Speaker 1: get their hands on him, he go flying, right. So 882 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,319 Speaker 1: that's why you got the motion. That's why you got 883 00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:42,960 Speaker 1: to put him inside, That's why you got to get 884 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:47,319 Speaker 1: him away from the press on the program. He's going 885 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,480 Speaker 1: to come back. Let's kind of Eldred in North Carolina. Hey, 886 00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:59,879 Speaker 1: Eldred all right? Cause a four car accident? Whoa hello, congratulations, 887 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:05,279 Speaker 1: Oh hold on you okay, okay, Evan. The reason why 888 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,560 Speaker 1: they don't use Tycoon like that because you got guys 889 00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:10,000 Speaker 1: that don't how to use them like that. That's the problem. 890 00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:14,479 Speaker 1: For twenty years, Daniels, you had Brady, you had people 891 00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:17,799 Speaker 1: like that. You don't have them now. So I'm gonna 892 00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,959 Speaker 1: say one thing, like somebody I used to kill people 893 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:24,000 Speaker 1: all the time for twenty years. The one guy got 894 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:26,799 Speaker 1: me Thursday night, after watched the Viking and the Fakers game, 895 00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:30,880 Speaker 1: he said, ask Bill Belichick for me, why you got 896 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:33,640 Speaker 1: a high school team playing in the NFL league with 897 00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:36,879 Speaker 1: the coach. Oh, yeah, that's a great question. That don't 898 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:42,960 Speaker 1: work out. Well, I'll get you a credential next week 899 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 1: you come out. Why don't you send me a direct 900 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 1: message with the wording just the way you want it. 901 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:49,200 Speaker 1: I'll make sure to get that down for it. And 902 00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:51,239 Speaker 1: then I went myself out that way the guys get 903 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:54,719 Speaker 1: rid of me. Yeah. But my question is, like I 904 00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:57,640 Speaker 1: said before, you know, do you really want this team 905 00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:02,160 Speaker 1: go to the playoffs? Really? Yeah? Really? Yes, got a 906 00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:04,680 Speaker 1: chance of winning in the playoffs. I think they have 907 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:06,799 Speaker 1: a better chance they go to the playoffs. That means 908 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:09,840 Speaker 1: they have played better go down the stretch. Well, I 909 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:12,759 Speaker 1: mean I just want them to have success. I mean, like, yeah, yeah, 910 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,200 Speaker 1: we wantways work here, but like, yes, that's the goal. 911 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:17,160 Speaker 1: Win games and make the playoffs. You know, they're not 912 00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:19,359 Speaker 1: going to get to the playoffs playing like they are now. 913 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 1: So if they get to the playoffs, that means they've improved. 914 00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 1: They're also not going to get a top ten pick 915 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 1: if they missed the playoffs, So they're gonna be at 916 00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:28,439 Speaker 1: this point, we're just in the middle. Anyway. They're gonna 917 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 1: be picking fifteenth like they did after the CAM year, 918 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 1: and then where is that at? You will Levis yea, 919 00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:42,239 Speaker 1: Evan just give me a dirty look that in the 920 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:44,239 Speaker 1: beginning of the year, I said, yeah, we got seed 921 00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:48,440 Speaker 1: on defense, but also said five eleven, five, ten, nine, 922 00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 1: guys with speed ain't gonna match six one, six two 923 00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:53,960 Speaker 1: whide receiver was speed and four back can put them 924 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:56,560 Speaker 1: on a DAN. And we saw that Thursday night, and 925 00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:58,839 Speaker 1: then that's coming up rest of the week, the rest 926 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 1: of the game. Ye know, we shall see. We shall 927 00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:08,680 Speaker 1: say wait, all right, thank you, thanks Alfred. Hey, you 928 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 1: know the whole bills thing, right, you know, people just 929 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:13,759 Speaker 1: keep saying like it just hasn't looked right. It hasn't 930 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 1: looked right. They're owing two in the division. I wonder 931 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 1: if there's something to the fact that these division teams 932 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 1: now have seen Josh Allen and what he's gonna do, 933 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 1: and maybe that helped the Dolphins and the Jets in 934 00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:26,719 Speaker 1: the in their games they held them to seventeen points 935 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:28,759 Speaker 1: and both of them, I think, and they're scoring like 936 00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:31,960 Speaker 1: thirty against everybody else. Maybe I just don't get it. 937 00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:35,319 Speaker 1: Why can't we even come to bunt? But what I'm saying, 938 00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:40,880 Speaker 1: maybe maybe the familiarity, you know, will will help a 939 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:43,800 Speaker 1: little bit. You can email the show at web radio 940 00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:48,600 Speaker 1: at Patriots dot com and Travis and Collierville, Tennessee. Did says, 941 00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:51,359 Speaker 1: I believe the second quarter of Judon had a free 942 00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:54,320 Speaker 1: run at Cousins, and when Cousins threw it at about 943 00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 1: shoulder level, Judon ducked out of the way. The past 944 00:44:57,440 --> 00:44:59,400 Speaker 1: was completed for first down. I believe in a few 945 00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:03,000 Speaker 1: other times they weren't getting their hands up on blockable passes. 946 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:05,160 Speaker 1: Is this the product of ducking out of the way 947 00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:08,160 Speaker 1: slash breaking off at practice so the offense can get 948 00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:10,479 Speaker 1: to work in because it doesn't seem to be making 949 00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:12,920 Speaker 1: a difference. In the offense and now appears to be 950 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:16,200 Speaker 1: hurting the defense on the field. I don't know, if 951 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:18,640 Speaker 1: you're trying to survive with batted passes at the line 952 00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:22,240 Speaker 1: of scrimmage, then you got thereby they bat down passes 953 00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:25,759 Speaker 1: a practice that's not a Now I don't know what 954 00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:28,320 Speaker 1: the play is that we're talking about. I mean, the 955 00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 1: way he's describing it, I'm thinking maybe Judon recoiled so 956 00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:35,800 Speaker 1: as not to hit the quarterback up high, right, you know, 957 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:37,759 Speaker 1: you know, just again, I don't know what the play is. 958 00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:40,680 Speaker 1: But you know, sometimes if you're coming after a quarterback 959 00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 1: and you're trying to knock down a pass, well just 960 00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 1: think about it. I mean physics. I mean, you're going 961 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:48,080 Speaker 1: to continue on and your momentum is going to take 962 00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:52,000 Speaker 1: you potentially above the shoulders and get a silly penalty. Yeah, 963 00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:55,359 Speaker 1: wasn't something I noticed in the film review, to be honestly, yeah, 964 00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:57,920 Speaker 1: I didn't, and i'm not. I'm not familiar with the 965 00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:00,800 Speaker 1: specific play that he's talking about. Jake can Ben Dingo 966 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:04,719 Speaker 1: Australia writes in two things I need to get out there. One, 967 00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:08,120 Speaker 1: we've got two previous Bama quarterbacks taking the league by 968 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:10,919 Speaker 1: storm in their third year, this being thanks to having 969 00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:13,920 Speaker 1: those wide receiver ones and a good supporting crew. If 970 00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:16,399 Speaker 1: we follow suit, could we get back to this level? 971 00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:19,840 Speaker 1: And is this apples to apples or apples to oranges? 972 00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:23,080 Speaker 1: So of course he's talking about two h and Jalen Hurtz, 973 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 1: spend my thing all year, Mike McDaniel, Tyreek Hill, Serenia 974 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:35,040 Speaker 1: and Serenian whatever, Hey, thank you, Serenia whatever his name is. 975 00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:39,480 Speaker 1: It's like Evan couldn't be bothered that spend my thing 976 00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:43,320 Speaker 1: all year right too. Talking about the offensive coaches yesterday 977 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:46,719 Speaker 1: had me thinking, what about our defensive coaches next year? 978 00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:48,920 Speaker 1: Steve will stay, but what if Mayo got offered a 979 00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:53,160 Speaker 1: high head coach or actual defensive coordinator job. Where would 980 00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:56,239 Speaker 1: we be if that happened? And what if Nick hille leaves? 981 00:46:56,280 --> 00:46:57,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's that's I think they're in 982 00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:03,719 Speaker 1: good shape on defense. I think they'll be fine. DeMarcus Covington, Pellegrino, 983 00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:05,880 Speaker 1: those guys have been around the block little while. I mean, 984 00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:09,239 Speaker 1: you would think, you know, Drawd and Steve Belichick have 985 00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:12,319 Speaker 1: been doing it together long enough where if one either 986 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:14,400 Speaker 1: one left, the other would be able to take on 987 00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:16,759 Speaker 1: a bigger role. I think only one would probably leave, 988 00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:21,719 Speaker 1: right But uh yeah, but it's like at some point, 989 00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:25,120 Speaker 1: at some point, you can't just keep hemorrhaging coaches though 990 00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:28,480 Speaker 1: and bringing back guys who were here previously, like you know, 991 00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:31,360 Speaker 1: I mean just a certain point of attrition. And I 992 00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:33,480 Speaker 1: mean I think they should definitely add to the coaching staff. 993 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:35,879 Speaker 1: I'd love to see like a young offensive line coach coming, 994 00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:38,960 Speaker 1: you know, just kind of refill the coffers, Like it 995 00:47:39,080 --> 00:47:41,600 Speaker 1: just feels like they have been absolutely stripped to the bone, 996 00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 1: and you consider continue to just you know, rely on 997 00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:46,719 Speaker 1: guys that have been around here, and it's like, you know, 998 00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 1: at some point it's going to feel like it's Bill, 999 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:51,320 Speaker 1: Steve and Brian sitting there trying to put a Patriots 1000 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:52,759 Speaker 1: team out of the field, the three of them. You know, 1001 00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:56,640 Speaker 1: the news the good news is if you keep if 1002 00:47:56,719 --> 00:48:00,320 Speaker 1: you don't start winning, they'll stop taking your coaches. But 1003 00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:03,400 Speaker 1: the bad news is you haven't one stopped winning, right, Um, 1004 00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:06,600 Speaker 1: But there is something too, you know, like he's he's 1005 00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:10,600 Speaker 1: had so many of those coaching assistants that have been around. 1006 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:13,520 Speaker 1: They're there for four or five years, they graduate to 1007 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:16,720 Speaker 1: position coaches, and they eventually, you know, like Josh and Dable. 1008 00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:20,080 Speaker 1: Did you know they were both coaching assistants will first, 1009 00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:25,880 Speaker 1: But now I think some of these younger guys that 1010 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:30,560 Speaker 1: they've had in like you know, either coaching assistant roles 1011 00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:38,120 Speaker 1: or you know, assistant position coaches. You know, um Bohart 1012 00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:41,200 Speaker 1: agree which like the assistant quarterbacks coach or something like that, Josh. 1013 00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:43,640 Speaker 1: You know, they're even losing guys like that like bo 1014 00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:46,560 Speaker 1: like I don't know bo Heart agree from bow Jackson 1015 00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:49,239 Speaker 1: like I don't I don't know what his acumen is. 1016 00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:53,560 Speaker 1: But I'm just saying in the past, that would have 1017 00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:55,319 Speaker 1: been a candidate like Nick kay We talk a lot 1018 00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:58,560 Speaker 1: about Nick Kayley. That would have been a candidate like oh, 1019 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:00,640 Speaker 1: he's been in the program for three or four years now, 1020 00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:02,719 Speaker 1: he's the quarterbacks coach of the last two years. Well 1021 00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:05,440 Speaker 1: maybe when Josh leaves, he can be the offensive. And 1022 00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:08,719 Speaker 1: even they're losing those guys, you know, at a very 1023 00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:11,279 Speaker 1: early stage. So it's like some of it, I think, 1024 00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:14,200 Speaker 1: is it right if your guys goes and takes a 1025 00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:17,439 Speaker 1: bunch with them, right? And it's fair criticism to say, well, 1026 00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:19,560 Speaker 1: how much longer did they think Josh was going to 1027 00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:21,720 Speaker 1: be here? Like that? And that's a big felgern mazzism, 1028 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:23,920 Speaker 1: you know, like there was no plan, Mike, you know, 1029 00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:26,120 Speaker 1: and I get it, and they're right, like there was 1030 00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:28,120 Speaker 1: no plan. They had to know eventually he was leaving. 1031 00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:30,399 Speaker 1: But at the same time, I do think that it's 1032 00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:33,120 Speaker 1: not always black and white. I think some of those 1033 00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:36,920 Speaker 1: probably were planned for and then all of a sudden 1034 00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:39,520 Speaker 1: you end up losing. And that this wasn't the only 1035 00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:42,160 Speaker 1: coaching cycle that they lost. They've lost like three or 1036 00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:44,640 Speaker 1: four coaching and you know, Flores took some guys, you know, 1037 00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:47,520 Speaker 1: Chad o'sha maybe was one of those guys where that 1038 00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:50,600 Speaker 1: they wanted to be an offensive coordinator and he goes 1039 00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:54,040 Speaker 1: with Flores five years ago, four years or whatever it was. 1040 00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:56,960 Speaker 1: You know, I'm just again trying to point out I 1041 00:49:57,280 --> 00:50:00,640 Speaker 1: have both sides. I have concerns about this with Gerard 1042 00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:03,480 Speaker 1: and that I think on the offense, we're seeing it 1043 00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:05,480 Speaker 1: happen right in front of our eyes too, where it's 1044 00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:09,279 Speaker 1: obviously some of them are his sons, but Bill has 1045 00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:13,160 Speaker 1: his guys. And if you're Nick Kayley and you're Girard Mayo, 1046 00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:16,239 Speaker 1: like Gerard is not going to get the DC job 1047 00:50:16,280 --> 00:50:18,880 Speaker 1: over Steve, like he's never going to be the actual 1048 00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:23,759 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator, and clearly Nick Kayley gets jumped over by 1049 00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:26,480 Speaker 1: Joe Judge and Matt Patricia on the offensive side of things. 1050 00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:29,839 Speaker 1: So why would you stick around? Like there's no there's 1051 00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:32,560 Speaker 1: no chance of upward movement here, Like there's no chance 1052 00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 1: of moving up the ladder on their coaching staff right now, 1053 00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:38,560 Speaker 1: because he's gonna go with his guys anyways, right and 1054 00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:41,239 Speaker 1: you're you know you you talk sometimes to you know, 1055 00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:43,480 Speaker 1: those people and the players, and in the way they 1056 00:50:43,560 --> 00:50:45,920 Speaker 1: talk about things. One of the things, one of the 1057 00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:49,120 Speaker 1: ways that's been explained to us in terms of Steve 1058 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:54,400 Speaker 1: Belichick in Mayo is that Steve Belichick does a lot 1059 00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:57,200 Speaker 1: of the planning, a lot of the excess knows, but 1060 00:50:57,520 --> 00:51:01,360 Speaker 1: does not communicate it well of the team, you know, 1061 00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:05,120 Speaker 1: standing up at a defensive meeting, that's Mayo's job. He's 1062 00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:08,319 Speaker 1: the one that gets the message across. Have you heard 1063 00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:12,319 Speaker 1: anything that's I would I think both of them take turns. 1064 00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:14,400 Speaker 1: They call it presenting, Like I think both of them 1065 00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:18,040 Speaker 1: take turns presenting. But I do think that Mayo is 1066 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:21,160 Speaker 1: more of the vocal leader of that group, and Steve 1067 00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:23,759 Speaker 1: calls the players on game day Mayo runs the sideline. 1068 00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:26,080 Speaker 1: That that's sort of the way that it's been as 1069 00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:28,880 Speaker 1: well on game days. So I think that they do. 1070 00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:32,040 Speaker 1: And look, you know, there are those two are inseparable, 1071 00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:34,440 Speaker 1: Like those two are always together. We see him together 1072 00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:37,440 Speaker 1: all the time. So I think they actually have a 1073 00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:41,960 Speaker 1: really good relationship with each Yeah. So I don't think 1074 00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:45,239 Speaker 1: that there's any There might be some some competitive or 1075 00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:48,520 Speaker 1: professional friction, but I don't think it's personal. Um and 1076 00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:52,239 Speaker 1: I but I think that there's I just think it's 1077 00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:54,919 Speaker 1: tough to look at it and say, well, if I'm 1078 00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:58,480 Speaker 1: DeMarcus Covington, like where where am I going to be 1079 00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:00,560 Speaker 1: in three years? And I just I just would worry 1080 00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:03,600 Speaker 1: if you lost Mayo. That that's a big part of 1081 00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:07,400 Speaker 1: the communication. Yeah, I think he's got everybody's respect. He's 1082 00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:09,800 Speaker 1: played in the league. I mean, and I you know, 1083 00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:12,680 Speaker 1: I think back to a couple of those cracks that 1084 00:52:12,760 --> 00:52:15,640 Speaker 1: we saw last year, most notably after the Dallas game 1085 00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:19,120 Speaker 1: with Devin. You know, Devin openly saying what are we 1086 00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:21,880 Speaker 1: doing on the on the game, you know, on the 1087 00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 1: fourth in or the third and whatever that. Yeah, you 1088 00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:28,120 Speaker 1: know that that that was a call we all quite 1089 00:52:28,160 --> 00:52:30,759 Speaker 1: you know, that's not the kind of stuff that you've hear. 1090 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:33,920 Speaker 1: You hear normally out of the Patris. So I'm just wondering, 1091 00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:37,400 Speaker 1: like communication wise, I wonder if, yeah, you can have 1092 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:39,400 Speaker 1: all the schemes that you want. And I'm sure as 1093 00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:42,040 Speaker 1: Steve Belichick is a smart football coach, right, how could 1094 00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:44,319 Speaker 1: he not be with all the time he has spent 1095 00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:48,480 Speaker 1: with his father. I just wonder if you lose that element, 1096 00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:52,080 Speaker 1: you know, maybe DeMarcus Covington to Evans point, maybe Covington 1097 00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:54,279 Speaker 1: is the guy who you know, takes on a bigger 1098 00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:57,160 Speaker 1: role and he's a good communicator. Maybe it's Pellegrino. Maybe 1099 00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:00,520 Speaker 1: it's one of the other younger enough given up to 1100 00:53:00,560 --> 00:53:02,719 Speaker 1: coach him and him and Hoyer, they can take over 1101 00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:08,000 Speaker 1: the offense and the defense problem solved. Colin and the 1102 00:53:08,239 --> 00:53:10,719 Speaker 1: touchdown he's over the line with the ball in his hands, 1103 00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:12,400 Speaker 1: I don't care what happens when he hits the ground. 1104 00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:16,759 Speaker 1: Colin and Seattle. I found the Minnesota game to be 1105 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:18,920 Speaker 1: the best game for the offense this season and the 1106 00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:21,560 Speaker 1: most confident I've seen Mack in the pocket as far 1107 00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:24,960 Speaker 1: as allowing routes to develop and finding options downfield. Violent 1108 00:53:25,080 --> 00:53:27,680 Speaker 1: agreement on the other side of the ball. I agree 1109 00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:29,839 Speaker 1: with Paul and Mike that the Minnesota game was also 1110 00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:32,839 Speaker 1: a huge blemish on the coaching staff for not having 1111 00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:36,080 Speaker 1: a competent game plan for Justin Jefferson with a similar 1112 00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:38,920 Speaker 1: caliber receiver in Digs. This week, they'll have to adjust 1113 00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:42,719 Speaker 1: in order to prevent another total takeover. Nope, that being said, 1114 00:53:43,280 --> 00:53:46,040 Speaker 1: what do you find more likely, not just for tomorrow, 1115 00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:48,760 Speaker 1: but for the remainder of the season. The offense continues 1116 00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:52,040 Speaker 1: to improve, develop sustained drives and put the ball in 1117 00:53:52,080 --> 00:53:55,279 Speaker 1: the end zone, or the defense takes another step back 1118 00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:59,919 Speaker 1: and it's twenty twenty one all over again. Which more likely? Yeah, 1119 00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:04,360 Speaker 1: in the last six games, I'm gonna say that the defense, 1120 00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:07,439 Speaker 1: the defense regresses to what they usually are. I don't 1121 00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:09,560 Speaker 1: even know who you are anymore. Well, because the offense, 1122 00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:12,880 Speaker 1: the bar is so low. I mean, they could they 1123 00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:15,200 Speaker 1: could put twenty one. He could put twenty one points 1124 00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:16,759 Speaker 1: up in each of the next few games, and you'd 1125 00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:19,080 Speaker 1: be like, wow, I mean we're putting up twenty one points, 1126 00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:23,279 Speaker 1: you know. Meanwhile, with the defense, I have concerns about 1127 00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:24,960 Speaker 1: the defense. I mean I don't I don't want to 1128 00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:27,239 Speaker 1: kill them and say that they're you know, as as 1129 00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:30,719 Speaker 1: flawed as as I think they were last year. Because 1130 00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:32,799 Speaker 1: last I'm not even killing them. I just think it's 1131 00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:35,760 Speaker 1: really hard to play really good defense against good offenses 1132 00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:37,799 Speaker 1: in that league. Yep, I think that's fair. I think 1133 00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 1: what I what I will hold against them is just 1134 00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:43,880 Speaker 1: that if the sacks and the interceptions, that takeaways disappear, 1135 00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:45,360 Speaker 1: you know, I think those are the things that just 1136 00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:48,520 Speaker 1: you know, you need the defense to be to cause chaos, 1137 00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:51,600 Speaker 1: to force bad decisions, to force bad throws to like 1138 00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:53,520 Speaker 1: that's what you need. Like they get it. They're gonna 1139 00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:56,000 Speaker 1: give up twenty eight to the bills like, no problem, 1140 00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:57,920 Speaker 1: Like okay, but you need no offense to be able 1141 00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:00,040 Speaker 1: to play with that too. That's the area that you 1142 00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:02,400 Speaker 1: and I disagree a little bit on. Like you focus 1143 00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:06,040 Speaker 1: on the takeaways like and obviously I'm takeaways. I mean, 1144 00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:09,640 Speaker 1: I mean almost all of these games have decided the margin. 1145 00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:12,000 Speaker 1: I just I see it as if you're a really 1146 00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:14,719 Speaker 1: good defense, I want you to stop them once in 1147 00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:17,239 Speaker 1: a while. Now, like I just said, it's really hard 1148 00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:20,239 Speaker 1: to stop a good a good offense consistently. You know, 1149 00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:22,719 Speaker 1: even even the best offense is you might get them 1150 00:55:22,760 --> 00:55:25,279 Speaker 1: a couple of times, like the the AFC Championship game 1151 00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:27,279 Speaker 1: in Kansas City. Yeah, they shut them out for a 1152 00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:29,840 Speaker 1: half and then it was hold onto your hats. You know, 1153 00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:32,360 Speaker 1: it's just really hard to play defense. And yeah, I 1154 00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:33,919 Speaker 1: mean I think and I and I think. The way 1155 00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:37,200 Speaker 1: I come at it is looking more at those as 1156 00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:39,800 Speaker 1: a by product of how you're playing, so you know, 1157 00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:41,480 Speaker 1: like not saying like we just have to go out 1158 00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:43,960 Speaker 1: there and get a takeaway, like you know, like my 1159 00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:46,720 Speaker 1: my feeling about it is that when you were playing 1160 00:55:46,760 --> 00:55:50,719 Speaker 1: really good defense, those plays happen because offenses are on 1161 00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:54,000 Speaker 1: their heels. They're making under pressured decisions that you know, 1162 00:55:54,200 --> 00:55:57,239 Speaker 1: so as much as its interceptions and that and that 1163 00:55:57,360 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 1: kind of stuff and sacks, to me, it's you know, 1164 00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:00,920 Speaker 1: just as much about win in the line of scrimmage, 1165 00:56:00,920 --> 00:56:02,279 Speaker 1: and you know, like going out there and being like 1166 00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:05,279 Speaker 1: every down we're pushing these guys a yard back. And 1167 00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:07,120 Speaker 1: you know, when we've seen it over the last couple 1168 00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:09,200 Speaker 1: of years, you can see those games right out of 1169 00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:11,040 Speaker 1: the gate. You know, you see the defense is like 1170 00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:13,239 Speaker 1: who they got it today, you know, and and other 1171 00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:15,760 Speaker 1: and I'm sure that's every defense, but and it happens 1172 00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:17,560 Speaker 1: a lot like you see those teams that are at 1173 00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:20,759 Speaker 1: the top takeaways, and then all of a sudden they 1174 00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:22,359 Speaker 1: get in the playoffs and they have one of those 1175 00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:24,600 Speaker 1: games where they don't take it away, and I mean, 1176 00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:25,880 Speaker 1: it's it's I mean, you look at some of these 1177 00:56:25,920 --> 00:56:27,960 Speaker 1: stats from the Patriots defense and like those you know, 1178 00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:30,560 Speaker 1: like Eli Manning the Super Bowls where it's you know, 1179 00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:33,280 Speaker 1: I mean that the eleven defense it just absolutely lived 1180 00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:37,200 Speaker 1: on takeaways and that defense don't. And then you know, 1181 00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:39,359 Speaker 1: but then they get to Eli to unthrow them Andy, 1182 00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:41,120 Speaker 1: and you know, you get what you get. I just 1183 00:56:41,200 --> 00:56:44,359 Speaker 1: hope they don't overreacts to fond Diggs. That's that's all 1184 00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:46,880 Speaker 1: because I I when I when I look at like 1185 00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:49,680 Speaker 1: covering receiver groups, like it's kind of like basketball. I'm 1186 00:56:49,680 --> 00:56:51,680 Speaker 1: gonna cross sports for a second. It's like, we have 1187 00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:54,680 Speaker 1: two options. We can either put all of our attention 1188 00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:57,120 Speaker 1: into slowing down Kobe Bryant, or we can let Kobe 1189 00:56:57,200 --> 00:56:59,839 Speaker 1: go for fifty, but nobody else is going to score, right, 1190 00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:02,000 Speaker 1: those are like sort of your two options. And to me, 1191 00:57:02,600 --> 00:57:06,080 Speaker 1: I would rather Digs have a big game, But Mackenzie 1192 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:09,239 Speaker 1: and Knox and Gabe Davis are not to be heard 1193 00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:12,680 Speaker 1: of for the entire game. Then the opposite, because what 1194 00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:16,080 Speaker 1: they did against Justin Jefferson, to my in my mind, 1195 00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:19,200 Speaker 1: was they try to give them all this attention in 1196 00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:22,600 Speaker 1: that game, especially I would say early on, but even 1197 00:57:22,640 --> 00:57:24,880 Speaker 1: throughout the game, in that last play that we always 1198 00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:28,680 Speaker 1: talk about on the field touchdown, and it just it 1199 00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:31,480 Speaker 1: opened up everything else for the Vikings passing game. And 1200 00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:34,160 Speaker 1: they now Kirk spreading it around. Now other guys are 1201 00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:37,640 Speaker 1: getting involved, and I just I think that they overplayed 1202 00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:39,800 Speaker 1: their hand on Jefferson. Yeah, but I just think if 1203 00:57:40,320 --> 00:57:43,960 Speaker 1: I'm not going to revisit our argument from yesterday, but 1204 00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:45,760 Speaker 1: I think if you're going to give all the attention, 1205 00:57:46,080 --> 00:57:49,040 Speaker 1: like you're saying, don't give all the attention, you have 1206 00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:51,480 Speaker 1: to do one or the other. If you're gonna give 1207 00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:54,160 Speaker 1: all the attention, you have to take them away. If 1208 00:57:54,200 --> 00:57:57,360 Speaker 1: you're gonna just shoot them like a regular receiver, then 1209 00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:01,040 Speaker 1: that's that's okay. If you the other guys away. They 1210 00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:05,000 Speaker 1: didn't either. Yeah, Jefferson dominated the game and the other guys, 1211 00:58:05,160 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 1: Hawkinson and Finland made their plays. I guess, like, not 1212 00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:11,320 Speaker 1: again not to get into the argument again, but to me, 1213 00:58:11,360 --> 00:58:14,240 Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty five yards for a superstar receiver 1214 00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:20,120 Speaker 1: like Jefferson is not dominating the game. See, that's dominating disagreement. 1215 00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:22,560 Speaker 1: I think that he completely dominated the game. And I 1216 00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:24,960 Speaker 1: think with a lot of these teams, when you have 1217 00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:29,640 Speaker 1: that one guy that the quarterback loves and he has 1218 00:58:29,720 --> 00:58:32,600 Speaker 1: them available when he needs them, that's fair, you're in trouble. 1219 00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:35,480 Speaker 1: And I'm sorry. Nine for thirty six is dominating a 1220 00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:37,720 Speaker 1: game a couple of years ago and the Patriots gave 1221 00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:40,080 Speaker 1: up like two hundred and three touchdowns to Tyree Hill. 1222 00:58:40,360 --> 00:58:44,480 Speaker 1: That's dominating the game, Okay, right, Like that, what Jefferson 1223 00:58:44,560 --> 00:58:46,520 Speaker 1: did was he played a great game, Don't get me wrong, 1224 00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:48,920 Speaker 1: But I just think that the fact that they were 1225 00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:51,280 Speaker 1: able to spread a ball around really hurt them as well. 1226 00:58:51,320 --> 00:58:55,080 Speaker 1: And I actually really like Jonathan Jones against Deefon Diggs, 1227 00:58:55,120 --> 00:58:57,120 Speaker 1: Like I think that that's a pretty good matchup for 1228 00:58:57,160 --> 00:59:00,680 Speaker 1: the Patriots because Diggs is not ay that wins the 1229 00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:03,120 Speaker 1: ball down the field like justin Jefferson does. He's more 1230 00:59:03,120 --> 00:59:05,600 Speaker 1: of a route runner guy that can create a lot 1231 00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:09,760 Speaker 1: of separation, especially underneath, right, And I think that Jonathan 1232 00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:12,520 Speaker 1: Jones actually in some ways matches up better against him 1233 00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:17,360 Speaker 1: than jac Jackson did. Well, you better hope Paul's Foods here, 1234 00:59:17,400 --> 00:59:18,840 Speaker 1: So we'll take a break, and I just want to 1235 00:59:18,920 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 1: let everyone know FedEx we're ready for the holidays. That's 1236 00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:25,880 Speaker 1: that's it. That's the reads.

So that's why it was very brief. But 1239 00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:34,200 Speaker 1: I just want to let everyone know that FedEx is 1240 00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:38,680 Speaker 1: ready for the holidays, So order your packages and they're 1241 00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:40,840 Speaker 1: gonna get there because of them.

I don't know if I'm right or wrong, 1417 01:10:03,520 --> 01:10:06,599 Speaker 1: but I don't consider South America to be overseas. Seems 1418 01:10:06,640 --> 01:10:14,640 Speaker 1: like overseas general refers to Europe or Asia. You'd be correct, emailer, Yeah, right, No, 1419 01:10:16,040 --> 01:10:19,799 Speaker 1: maybe maybe you said it at the top of the emails. 1420 01:10:19,920 --> 01:10:24,519 Speaker 1: And then why why is that not considered overseas? South America? Yeah? 1421 01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:28,080 Speaker 1: Why is considered It's the same hemisphere? Could you get 1422 01:10:28,080 --> 01:10:32,720 Speaker 1: there without going over a sea. Yeah, I guess you could. Yeah, yeah, 1423 01:10:32,760 --> 01:10:35,160 Speaker 1: I suppose you could get there without going over the sea. Right, 1424 01:10:38,880 --> 01:10:42,760 Speaker 1: Usually if you cross an ocean or a sea, it's overseas. Yeah, 1425 01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:47,120 Speaker 1: but I would typically anything international if I know you're trying. 1426 01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:49,240 Speaker 1: I know you if I like your explanation, but I 1427 01:10:49,280 --> 01:10:51,120 Speaker 1: would agree with you. Why it wouldn't be consider South 1428 01:10:51,160 --> 01:10:54,400 Speaker 1: America overseas. I just think it's a it's a synonym 1429 01:10:54,479 --> 01:10:57,880 Speaker 1: for international overseas. People say internationally, they use it interchangeably 1430 01:10:58,400 --> 01:11:01,479 Speaker 1: international and over Canada over he brought that home. No, okay, 1431 01:11:01,560 --> 01:11:06,599 Speaker 1: he brought neigh it's international, not all international. He brought 1432 01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:08,200 Speaker 1: that home. Though I liked what he just did there. 1433 01:11:09,640 --> 01:11:13,559 Speaker 1: It's synonymous with international, but it's not right right right 1434 01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:19,799 Speaker 1: with the ready his Canada Mexico. That's another great moment 1435 01:11:20,120 --> 01:11:25,120 Speaker 1: from I miss those, you know, picking on Eric Fred 1436 01:11:25,280 --> 01:11:27,040 Speaker 1: kind of yeah, I guess you could call it that, 1437 01:11:27,360 --> 01:11:30,160 Speaker 1: but you know, rattling his cage. I think anytime when 1438 01:11:30,240 --> 01:11:33,320 Speaker 1: somebody is so sure of themselves, it's good to be 1439 01:11:33,760 --> 01:11:37,080 Speaker 1: knock them down a few, you know. Maybe there's more 1440 01:11:37,080 --> 01:11:39,559 Speaker 1: of that in your future. Yeah, see, all right, eight 1441 01:11:39,640 --> 01:11:41,920 Speaker 1: five five past five hundred is the a sticket hotline, 1442 01:11:41,960 --> 01:11:44,439 Speaker 1: web radio at pagrits dot com is the email address 1443 01:11:44,880 --> 01:11:48,240 Speaker 1: Todd's in North Carolina. What's up, Todd? Todd? You guys 1444 01:11:48,320 --> 01:11:50,599 Speaker 1: brought up a really good point about usually the Patriots 1445 01:11:50,680 --> 01:11:54,360 Speaker 1: put people in places that they can succeed, and they 1446 01:11:54,400 --> 01:11:56,599 Speaker 1: haven't really been able to do that as much lately. 1447 01:11:56,680 --> 01:11:58,599 Speaker 1: And I think it's because they might be spread too 1448 01:11:58,640 --> 01:12:01,400 Speaker 1: thin on coaching. I don't know, maybe these players, maybe 1449 01:12:01,400 --> 01:12:04,000 Speaker 1: the players don't have the talent, but it just seems 1450 01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:05,760 Speaker 1: like you can only focus on so much because you 1451 01:12:05,840 --> 01:12:09,479 Speaker 1: only have so many people available. And Bill can't do offense, defense, 1452 01:12:09,560 --> 01:12:11,799 Speaker 1: and special teams. And he doesn't seem to have anybody. 1453 01:12:12,920 --> 01:12:14,479 Speaker 1: He doesn't have leadership in aidim, he doesn't have an 1454 01:12:14,520 --> 01:12:18,000 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, he doesn't have a defensive coordinator. There's just like, 1455 01:12:18,240 --> 01:12:20,720 Speaker 1: who's who's putting these people in the place to be 1456 01:12:20,840 --> 01:12:27,080 Speaker 1: successful other than Bill? Yeah, yeah, I mean, you know 1457 01:12:27,600 --> 01:12:31,280 Speaker 1: that that's kind of a you know, a bigger thing. 1458 01:12:31,439 --> 01:12:33,760 Speaker 1: But you know, I think every team tries to put 1459 01:12:33,800 --> 01:12:37,479 Speaker 1: their players in positions to succeed. The question is are 1460 01:12:37,560 --> 01:12:40,320 Speaker 1: they able to take advantage of that opportunity, you know, 1461 01:12:40,600 --> 01:12:43,040 Speaker 1: and that gets down to talent. You know, especially when 1462 01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:45,479 Speaker 1: you're talking about you know, Taekwon Thornton, a second round pick, 1463 01:12:45,520 --> 01:12:47,800 Speaker 1: a guy with great speed. You know, you know your 1464 01:12:48,040 --> 01:12:50,960 Speaker 1: philosophy going into this offseason of how we wanted to 1465 01:12:51,040 --> 01:12:53,479 Speaker 1: get faster, and you know, it's not just putting him 1466 01:12:53,520 --> 01:12:55,400 Speaker 1: in positions to see, but putting him in position to 1467 01:12:55,479 --> 01:12:58,160 Speaker 1: develop and to gain confidence into, you know, be a 1468 01:12:58,280 --> 01:13:00,960 Speaker 1: player that they can count on when they have some 1469 01:13:01,080 --> 01:13:03,720 Speaker 1: wide receiver turnover going this year. And I think unfortunately, 1470 01:13:03,800 --> 01:13:05,640 Speaker 1: the path we're kind of heading down is you know, 1471 01:13:05,680 --> 01:13:07,200 Speaker 1: I don't want to say it's a lost rookie year 1472 01:13:07,240 --> 01:13:09,559 Speaker 1: for him, but I don't think anybody's gonna have sky 1473 01:13:09,680 --> 01:13:12,360 Speaker 1: high expectations that Taykwon Thornton's going to be a major 1474 01:13:12,479 --> 01:13:14,559 Speaker 1: piece of the offense last next year. And I think 1475 01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:17,040 Speaker 1: that that's you know, disappointing. You know, you you hope 1476 01:13:17,080 --> 01:13:19,040 Speaker 1: that at the very least you had some kind of 1477 01:13:19,560 --> 01:13:21,360 Speaker 1: something out of him that that made you think, all right, 1478 01:13:21,400 --> 01:13:23,080 Speaker 1: next year, this guy will will give us something. And 1479 01:13:23,120 --> 01:13:24,880 Speaker 1: I think it's something that they need. They need speed, 1480 01:13:24,920 --> 01:13:27,519 Speaker 1: they need exposed to scoring. But you got to use them, right, 1481 01:13:27,560 --> 01:13:29,200 Speaker 1: you got to develop them, and you know, it's it's 1482 01:13:29,240 --> 01:13:30,479 Speaker 1: not what you guys like to make fun of me 1483 01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:32,560 Speaker 1: when I tell you what the narratives will be. You 1484 01:13:32,600 --> 01:13:34,960 Speaker 1: know ahead of time that will be an offseason narrative. 1485 01:13:35,000 --> 01:13:41,320 Speaker 1: What big big Yea Andrew and La writes for usual, 1486 01:13:41,479 --> 01:13:44,639 Speaker 1: I'm here to defend Paul. This is correct that Jefferson 1487 01:13:44,720 --> 01:13:46,760 Speaker 1: did not go off for one ninety three against the 1488 01:13:46,760 --> 01:13:49,679 Speaker 1: Pagrites like he did against the Bills. However, the Vikings 1489 01:13:49,720 --> 01:13:53,320 Speaker 1: targeted Jefferson sixteen times opposed to the eleven times he 1490 01:13:53,479 --> 01:13:56,360 Speaker 1: was targeted in the Patriots games. The Patriots allowed nine 1491 01:13:56,439 --> 01:13:59,479 Speaker 1: catches on eleven targets. That it helps your argument that 1492 01:13:59,640 --> 01:14:02,839 Speaker 1: is does that is a domination from a wide receiver standpoint. 1493 01:14:02,880 --> 01:14:05,960 Speaker 1: The Bills at least forced six and completions, and he 1494 01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:09,120 Speaker 1: also had an other worldly catches. And he also had 1495 01:14:09,160 --> 01:14:11,560 Speaker 1: an extra quarter to get that extra yardage in the 1496 01:14:11,640 --> 01:14:14,240 Speaker 1: Bills game due to it going to overtime. In the 1497 01:14:14,320 --> 01:14:16,840 Speaker 1: Bills game, Cook also rushed for one hundred nineteen yards. 1498 01:14:16,880 --> 01:14:19,519 Speaker 1: They were a balanced offensive attack. To say that the 1499 01:14:19,600 --> 01:14:23,400 Speaker 1: Patriots did not let Jefferson beat them is assinine Cook 1500 01:14:23,479 --> 01:14:29,080 Speaker 1: only ran him. Cook only ran for forty two yards. 1501 01:14:29,120 --> 01:14:31,880 Speaker 1: Of the Patriots game was all on Jefferson's shoulders. I 1502 01:14:31,960 --> 01:14:34,439 Speaker 1: don't know if I agree with that. Okay, So they 1503 01:14:34,520 --> 01:14:38,360 Speaker 1: held Dalvin Cook in check. They completely took him out 1504 01:14:38,439 --> 01:14:40,840 Speaker 1: right game, okay, two yards to carry about it, and 1505 01:14:41,600 --> 01:14:44,639 Speaker 1: Jefferson only went for one thirty five, right. I don't 1506 01:14:44,640 --> 01:14:48,760 Speaker 1: know why you keep saying before it's because he's justin Jefferson. 1507 01:14:49,439 --> 01:14:51,879 Speaker 1: He doesn't have thirty five yards a game. He averages 1508 01:14:51,880 --> 01:14:55,280 Speaker 1: over one hundred. I just don't know what would constitute 1509 01:14:55,439 --> 01:14:57,559 Speaker 1: like having an impact on the game, Like he had 1510 01:14:57,560 --> 01:14:59,519 Speaker 1: a huge impact on the game, and it's gonna have 1511 01:15:00,040 --> 01:15:03,760 Speaker 1: many people in the game that that wouldn't happen, that's all. 1512 01:15:04,320 --> 01:15:06,800 Speaker 1: And I was jarred by it. I did not feel 1513 01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:09,360 Speaker 1: he was going, you know, well over one hundred yards 1514 01:15:09,400 --> 01:15:11,479 Speaker 1: in that game. I didn't think it would happen, Okay. 1515 01:15:11,560 --> 01:15:13,280 Speaker 1: I figured they would do everything they could to make 1516 01:15:13,360 --> 01:15:15,479 Speaker 1: someone else beat them, and they didn't. So he had 1517 01:15:16,800 --> 01:15:19,280 Speaker 1: he had one thirty nine, right, nine for one thirty 1518 01:15:19,360 --> 01:15:22,840 Speaker 1: nine and the touchdown. Kirk Cousins threw for two hundred 1519 01:15:22,880 --> 01:15:25,280 Speaker 1: and ninety nine yards in the game, So that means 1520 01:15:25,320 --> 01:15:28,360 Speaker 1: that one hundred and you do one hundred and sixty 1521 01:15:28,479 --> 01:15:31,000 Speaker 1: thank you yards had to come from someplace else. He 1522 01:15:31,120 --> 01:15:35,960 Speaker 1: had one touchdown. They scored twenty six offensive points, so 1523 01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:38,360 Speaker 1: that means that nineteen other points had to come from 1524 01:15:38,439 --> 01:15:41,600 Speaker 1: someplace else. I'm not saying that justin Jefferson didn't have 1525 01:15:41,640 --> 01:15:44,000 Speaker 1: a huge impact on the game. He had a massive 1526 01:15:44,080 --> 01:15:46,280 Speaker 1: impact on the game because the Patriots let him have 1527 01:15:46,400 --> 01:15:49,559 Speaker 1: a massive impact on the game. So you say, oh, 1528 01:15:49,640 --> 01:15:52,280 Speaker 1: the caller says that he was targeted sixteen times in 1529 01:15:52,360 --> 01:15:54,960 Speaker 1: the game against the Bills. That does not help your argument. 1530 01:15:55,080 --> 01:15:59,000 Speaker 1: It does were able to if he's getting the targeted 1531 01:15:59,040 --> 01:16:01,800 Speaker 1: sixteen times and the meets he's opened was open on 1532 01:16:01,880 --> 01:16:04,960 Speaker 1: that fourth down, why are you why would he may 1533 01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:11,920 Speaker 1: be throwing not necessarily, why would they be like he 1534 01:16:12,120 --> 01:16:15,880 Speaker 1: was covered? Like, yeah, we've targeted sixteen times, but he 1535 01:16:15,960 --> 01:16:21,000 Speaker 1: only caught twelve. No. No. In the other game they 1536 01:16:21,080 --> 01:16:23,240 Speaker 1: stopped six of him. He only he caught ten of them. 1537 01:16:23,560 --> 01:16:29,040 Speaker 1: You know, Um, I don't know. I'm gonna anyway, rope Um. 1538 01:16:29,600 --> 01:16:32,320 Speaker 1: We've had it out enough of that, Drew writes in 1539 01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:35,840 Speaker 1: about Max's progression. We saw what is likely the best 1540 01:16:35,880 --> 01:16:39,520 Speaker 1: game Mac has played all year. Question Mark, how concerns 1541 01:16:39,520 --> 01:16:42,879 Speaker 1: should we be that it's a spurious game only possible 1542 01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:45,599 Speaker 1: due to the weakness into the Viking secondary, or can 1543 01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:47,960 Speaker 1: we hold out hope that he's turned a corner in 1544 01:16:48,120 --> 01:16:50,720 Speaker 1: terms of confidence in the pocket and his receivers. He 1545 01:16:50,840 --> 01:16:54,519 Speaker 1: looked fairly angry and upset after the game. Could that 1546 01:16:54,640 --> 01:16:56,800 Speaker 1: be a sign he's back to where we've seen him 1547 01:16:56,840 --> 01:17:00,920 Speaker 1: all year? I don't know. I mean, we'll see how 1548 01:17:00,960 --> 01:17:03,360 Speaker 1: the protection is. You know that. I mean, von millerbean 1549 01:17:03,400 --> 01:17:05,240 Speaker 1: Out's big, but I think you know he had some 1550 01:17:05,280 --> 01:17:07,400 Speaker 1: protection Earlyanni looked comfortable. I don't want to put it 1551 01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:10,200 Speaker 1: all on Minnesota that oh, they only the only reason 1552 01:17:10,280 --> 01:17:12,200 Speaker 1: he had any successful because they were terrible. I mean, 1553 01:17:12,280 --> 01:17:14,400 Speaker 1: you know it wasn't that. I mean, and considering what 1554 01:17:14,439 --> 01:17:16,600 Speaker 1: you've seen in the past from the Patriots. I have 1555 01:17:16,680 --> 01:17:19,160 Speaker 1: some numbers, yeah, yes, yes, in the back. So Kirk 1556 01:17:19,240 --> 01:17:21,960 Speaker 1: Cousins threw for three hundred and fifty seven yards against Buffalo, 1557 01:17:22,280 --> 01:17:25,400 Speaker 1: two hundred and ninety three of them went to Justin Jefferson, 1558 01:17:25,640 --> 01:17:29,200 Speaker 1: so the other one hundred and sixty four I stand corrected. 1559 01:17:30,040 --> 01:17:31,920 Speaker 1: He only threw for two hundred and ninety nine yards 1560 01:17:31,960 --> 01:17:34,200 Speaker 1: against the Patriots and one hundred and thirty six of them, 1561 01:17:34,240 --> 01:17:36,000 Speaker 1: So one hundred and sixty three of them went out 1562 01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:39,080 Speaker 1: the places. So I stand corrected. He definitely had a 1563 01:17:39,120 --> 01:17:41,240 Speaker 1: bigger impact on the Buffalo game. I was wrong the 1564 01:17:41,320 --> 01:17:45,439 Speaker 1: one yard difference. I was wrong, Snarkey, Paul, it's not 1565 01:17:45,600 --> 01:17:49,360 Speaker 1: snart like, you can't possibly tell me that he didn't 1566 01:17:49,360 --> 01:17:51,639 Speaker 1: have a similar impact in those two games. Well, Mike 1567 01:17:51,720 --> 01:17:53,840 Speaker 1: and London Ontario says, just want to make sure I 1568 01:17:53,960 --> 01:17:57,360 Speaker 1: understand Evans point correctly. Seven for one, forty three and 1569 01:17:57,439 --> 01:18:02,080 Speaker 1: three touchdowns on twelve targets is dominating the game. Nine 1570 01:18:02,120 --> 01:18:05,160 Speaker 1: for one, thirty nine and eleven and one touchdown on 1571 01:18:05,280 --> 01:18:07,920 Speaker 1: eleven targets is being kept in check? Is that correct? 1572 01:18:08,080 --> 01:18:10,080 Speaker 1: I have no idea what he's talking about. Where where 1573 01:18:10,160 --> 01:18:12,760 Speaker 1: the first set of number set Tyreek Hill number or 1574 01:18:12,800 --> 01:18:16,080 Speaker 1: something Tyreek had, Like, I don't know. It definitely felt 1575 01:18:16,120 --> 01:18:17,479 Speaker 1: like it was more than that. I don't know. I 1576 01:18:17,560 --> 01:18:20,679 Speaker 1: can't remember he did well in both games. Oh, let's 1577 01:18:20,720 --> 01:18:22,840 Speaker 1: say that, yes, he was a problem. I didn't say 1578 01:18:22,880 --> 01:18:25,080 Speaker 1: that he did. I didn't tell you that he was 1579 01:18:25,160 --> 01:18:28,160 Speaker 1: better against the Patriots than Buffalo. I didn't think that 1580 01:18:28,280 --> 01:18:31,920 Speaker 1: he would be similar, and he was like, that's that 1581 01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:33,160 Speaker 1: was the only point I was trying to me. I 1582 01:18:33,200 --> 01:18:35,040 Speaker 1: didn't really think it was a controversial point to be 1583 01:18:35,120 --> 01:18:36,760 Speaker 1: honest when it comes down to for me and to 1584 01:18:36,960 --> 01:18:41,519 Speaker 1: finally make my blastin to say, is that if all 1585 01:18:41,600 --> 01:18:45,519 Speaker 1: they gave up defensively, No, I don't mean all, but 1586 01:18:45,640 --> 01:18:48,480 Speaker 1: like the worst thing that happened in that game defensively 1587 01:18:48,920 --> 01:18:51,400 Speaker 1: was one thirty nine and a touchdown for Justin Jefferson, 1588 01:18:51,600 --> 01:18:53,519 Speaker 1: then they win the game. And if the worst thing 1589 01:18:53,600 --> 01:18:55,680 Speaker 1: that happened in the Buffalo game was one ninety three 1590 01:18:55,720 --> 01:18:57,960 Speaker 1: to touchdown, the Bills win the game. Matter of fact, 1591 01:18:58,080 --> 01:19:01,080 Speaker 1: they should have won the game anyway. Like I don't 1592 01:19:01,120 --> 01:19:03,639 Speaker 1: really understand. I'm not I'm not no, because I don't 1593 01:19:03,640 --> 01:19:06,160 Speaker 1: really out to other guys, and they and he only 1594 01:19:06,200 --> 01:19:08,920 Speaker 1: scored one touchdown, they scored thirty points. It's I don't 1595 01:19:08,960 --> 01:19:10,599 Speaker 1: really care about the Bills game, Like I don't care 1596 01:19:10,600 --> 01:19:12,759 Speaker 1: about it. But that was what the whole thing was about, 1597 01:19:12,920 --> 01:19:15,599 Speaker 1: was I didn't think they would let them to happen 1598 01:19:15,680 --> 01:19:17,840 Speaker 1: to them, what happened to the Bills. That was the 1599 01:19:17,880 --> 01:19:20,599 Speaker 1: whole reason for my bringing it up in the first place. Okay, 1600 01:19:21,040 --> 01:19:25,400 Speaker 1: that's all. Uh. James Pettigrew, the most interesting Patriots fan 1601 01:19:25,439 --> 01:19:27,679 Speaker 1: of the world, rights saying are the days of everything 1602 01:19:27,760 --> 01:19:30,479 Speaker 1: works out for the Patriots over have you noticed the 1603 01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:33,599 Speaker 1: change and key opposition players out, ref calls going our 1604 01:19:33,680 --> 01:19:36,400 Speaker 1: way or any of the other fictitious methods you use 1605 01:19:36,800 --> 01:19:41,360 Speaker 1: your view on this and the nod our gospel to me? Oh, thanks, James. 1606 01:19:41,439 --> 01:19:43,400 Speaker 1: The nod. I haven't seen a lot of the nod 1607 01:19:43,600 --> 01:19:46,320 Speaker 1: lately though, I mean, I think it's a private nod. 1608 01:19:47,120 --> 01:19:50,960 Speaker 1: The Colts game, I gave a nod, but yeah, not Yeah, 1609 01:19:51,640 --> 01:19:53,360 Speaker 1: I haven't given tough to make a nod. I don't 1610 01:19:53,400 --> 01:19:55,680 Speaker 1: think even after the Marcus Jones punt return you were 1611 01:19:55,720 --> 01:19:59,439 Speaker 1: still kind of Oh no, I don't know those two 1612 01:20:00,200 --> 01:20:06,479 Speaker 1: Craig Craig, but I would disagree with I mean, I 1613 01:20:06,560 --> 01:20:08,639 Speaker 1: would disagree with some of that. I think that there's 1614 01:20:08,640 --> 01:20:12,719 Speaker 1: still been plenty of reasons why, I mean, key players 1615 01:20:12,760 --> 01:20:15,200 Speaker 1: are out for key game. You know, I'm not necessarily 1616 01:20:15,240 --> 01:20:18,160 Speaker 1: talking other teams too. Yeah, I'm not necessarily talking about injuries, 1617 01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:21,920 Speaker 1: but like breaks in the span of games, like the 1618 01:20:22,000 --> 01:20:24,920 Speaker 1: calls are definitely going against the Patriots, and this in 1619 01:20:25,040 --> 01:20:29,920 Speaker 1: that in the Minnesota games consistently, without question. Yeah, they 1620 01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:32,720 Speaker 1: have without question in the Minnesota I was, you know, 1621 01:20:32,880 --> 01:20:34,280 Speaker 1: by the way I was, I was, I caught a 1622 01:20:34,320 --> 01:20:37,320 Speaker 1: little of our friend Greg on Felgrass. He talked about 1623 01:20:37,360 --> 01:20:39,360 Speaker 1: the hunter Henry one two, the third down that I 1624 01:20:39,439 --> 01:20:42,120 Speaker 1: talked about that I thought was a miss call. Yeah, 1625 01:20:43,200 --> 01:20:45,559 Speaker 1: everybody had that. No, I didn't even realize it until 1626 01:20:45,560 --> 01:20:48,599 Speaker 1: I just I like, I like when they let them 1627 01:20:48,640 --> 01:20:50,800 Speaker 1: play in the secondary. To me, if you hit a 1628 01:20:50,840 --> 01:20:53,200 Speaker 1: guy before the ball gets there, I want to flag, yeah, 1629 01:20:53,560 --> 01:20:56,760 Speaker 1: which they which, ironically enough, that's the one that's never called. 1630 01:20:57,320 --> 01:20:59,840 Speaker 1: You can kill a guy like you get their bank, 1631 01:21:00,880 --> 01:21:02,720 Speaker 1: but you hit him before the ball gets there, They're 1632 01:21:02,720 --> 01:21:04,760 Speaker 1: gonna let it go nine times out of ten. But 1633 01:21:05,080 --> 01:21:06,800 Speaker 1: you know, you take the guy's towel out on his 1634 01:21:06,880 --> 01:21:10,559 Speaker 1: break and up, that's a hold. Craig and Hoboken love 1635 01:21:10,640 --> 01:21:13,200 Speaker 1: the beginning of yesterday's show when Paul went silent for 1636 01:21:13,200 --> 01:21:15,479 Speaker 1: about ten minutes after we couldn't get anyone to admit 1637 01:21:15,560 --> 01:21:18,000 Speaker 1: that Justin Jefferson ruined the game for the Patriots the 1638 01:21:18,120 --> 01:21:20,240 Speaker 1: same way he did against the Bills. I should have 1639 01:21:20,280 --> 01:21:22,120 Speaker 1: gone silent. At the beginning of the show when Fred 1640 01:21:22,240 --> 01:21:25,040 Speaker 1: was doing his intro, I could feel his silent disbelief 1641 01:21:25,160 --> 01:21:27,160 Speaker 1: as Evan and Fred tried to convince us the d 1642 01:21:27,400 --> 01:21:30,360 Speaker 1: wasn't really that bad. I just wanted to get your thoughts. 1643 01:21:30,840 --> 01:21:32,200 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, I don't think either one of 1644 01:21:32,240 --> 01:21:35,680 Speaker 1: you said that I'll have to defend you. Then they 1645 01:21:35,760 --> 01:21:37,920 Speaker 1: weren't as bad as Fred kind of said that. I 1646 01:21:39,240 --> 01:21:41,200 Speaker 1: don't remember Evan saying that. Now. I just wanted to 1647 01:21:41,240 --> 01:21:43,439 Speaker 1: get your thoughts. I felt like all week leading up 1648 01:21:43,479 --> 01:21:45,560 Speaker 1: to the Vikings we talked about how the Vikings D 1649 01:21:45,880 --> 01:21:48,799 Speaker 1: was not great, how the scheme is an ideal matchup 1650 01:21:48,840 --> 01:21:50,639 Speaker 1: for our receivers to be able to find the soft 1651 01:21:50,680 --> 01:21:53,160 Speaker 1: spots in the zone, and how this was a winnable game. 1652 01:21:53,720 --> 01:21:55,800 Speaker 1: Matt played his best game of the year, maybe of 1653 01:21:55,920 --> 01:21:59,240 Speaker 1: his NFL career. I guess my worry here is, did 1654 01:21:59,280 --> 01:22:01,960 Speaker 1: we just see the ceiling of this offense? Will ever 1655 01:22:02,040 --> 01:22:04,960 Speaker 1: look better than it did Thursday? If so, I don't 1656 01:22:04,960 --> 01:22:07,479 Speaker 1: see too many more winnable games on our calendar. Just 1657 01:22:07,640 --> 01:22:11,280 Speaker 1: about everyone left has an elite receiver in a capable quarterback, 1658 01:22:11,320 --> 01:22:13,800 Speaker 1: and I feel like our d is really more like 1659 01:22:14,000 --> 01:22:16,360 Speaker 1: we saw on Thanksgiving than what we saw on the 1660 01:22:16,439 --> 01:22:18,960 Speaker 1: front and the first half of the year. I can 1661 01:22:19,040 --> 01:22:21,600 Speaker 1: tell people have not watched the Arizona Cardinals offense this 1662 01:22:21,760 --> 01:22:24,640 Speaker 1: year and just are going off of name brand recognition 1663 01:22:24,760 --> 01:22:28,240 Speaker 1: with Kyler and DeAndre Hopkins, right, I think that you 1664 01:22:28,320 --> 01:22:30,679 Speaker 1: can expect to move the ball and score points against 1665 01:22:30,720 --> 01:22:34,920 Speaker 1: the Cardinals and the Raiders. I think those teams. The 1666 01:22:35,040 --> 01:22:38,760 Speaker 1: Raiders defense is really really bad. I think you have 1667 01:22:38,880 --> 01:22:42,880 Speaker 1: to I mean, you know, we're almost throwing parades about 1668 01:22:43,439 --> 01:22:46,200 Speaker 1: what looks like a functional offense finally to appear on 1669 01:22:46,240 --> 01:22:48,800 Speaker 1: the field for us. But I mean, I think they 1670 01:22:48,840 --> 01:22:50,439 Speaker 1: can be better. I mean, they just they got to 1671 01:22:50,640 --> 01:22:52,000 Speaker 1: show some clutch at the end. You know, they got 1672 01:22:52,080 --> 01:22:53,320 Speaker 1: to make some plays at the end of a game. 1673 01:22:53,439 --> 01:22:56,720 Speaker 1: And it's weird, like you know, it's not always a 1674 01:22:56,840 --> 01:22:59,479 Speaker 1: equals B and B equill see than ach we'll see 1675 01:22:59,479 --> 01:23:02,600 Speaker 1: in the NFL, you know, like matchups are different on 1676 01:23:02,720 --> 01:23:05,679 Speaker 1: every team and sometimes just you know, you get against 1677 01:23:05,680 --> 01:23:08,799 Speaker 1: a team where you know, you think you have the matchup, 1678 01:23:08,840 --> 01:23:13,280 Speaker 1: but there's something about you know, individual matchups that the 1679 01:23:13,400 --> 01:23:15,560 Speaker 1: other team you know, does better than expect it. And 1680 01:23:16,120 --> 01:23:18,519 Speaker 1: so I don't think like just because they played a 1681 01:23:18,600 --> 01:23:21,080 Speaker 1: certain way against the Vikings, you're gonna see that same 1682 01:23:21,200 --> 01:23:24,200 Speaker 1: thing down the road. It's really different week to week 1683 01:23:24,320 --> 01:23:26,519 Speaker 1: with the different teams. I just you know, like like 1684 01:23:27,120 --> 01:23:30,720 Speaker 1: like Jacksonville, for a long time. The Colts couldn't beat them, 1685 01:23:31,360 --> 01:23:33,920 Speaker 1: you know, and the Cults were better team. You know, 1686 01:23:34,560 --> 01:23:37,360 Speaker 1: It's just weird how the NFL works that way. Sometimes. 1687 01:23:37,400 --> 01:23:39,200 Speaker 1: I'm interested to see how the Jets do against the 1688 01:23:39,280 --> 01:23:41,479 Speaker 1: Vikings this week. You know, how does Sauce Gardner match 1689 01:23:41,560 --> 01:23:44,800 Speaker 1: up with you know, Justin Jefferson and I just just generally, 1690 01:23:44,840 --> 01:23:47,880 Speaker 1: how does how does Mike Kee. They're gonna be just 1691 01:23:48,040 --> 01:23:50,040 Speaker 1: let him go one on one. He's gonna get like 1692 01:23:50,200 --> 01:23:52,479 Speaker 1: nine for one, thirty six again. Oh yeah, but they're 1693 01:23:52,479 --> 01:23:55,680 Speaker 1: gonna get to Cousins. Yeah, you know, they'll do what 1694 01:23:55,880 --> 01:23:58,479 Speaker 1: we didn't do. I'm they're gonna be better. These are 1695 01:23:58,479 --> 01:24:00,200 Speaker 1: the big games we're watching now. I mean, yeah, if 1696 01:24:00,200 --> 01:24:03,800 Speaker 1: you're realistically you know, especially the AFC NFC ones, like 1697 01:24:03,920 --> 01:24:09,080 Speaker 1: you could make an art like you know when when 1698 01:24:09,120 --> 01:24:11,880 Speaker 1: two AFC teams are playing each other, you know, Cincinnati 1699 01:24:11,960 --> 01:24:15,040 Speaker 1: in Kansas City, you know they played each other this week. Yeah, 1700 01:24:15,080 --> 01:24:18,439 Speaker 1: we're probably rooting for Kansas City because Cincinnati's closer in 1701 01:24:18,920 --> 01:24:21,720 Speaker 1: the wild card, But like when they're huge when they 1702 01:24:21,800 --> 01:24:23,720 Speaker 1: play in the NFC, because someone's going to benefit from 1703 01:24:23,760 --> 01:24:28,040 Speaker 1: Kansas City Cincinnati. Only only one team can benefit from 1704 01:24:28,240 --> 01:24:30,599 Speaker 1: Jets Minnesota and that's the Jets, you know, in terms 1705 01:24:30,640 --> 01:24:33,760 Speaker 1: of the Patriots playoff holds, so that is a huge game. 1706 01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:38,160 Speaker 1: I also love how Miami sant Franz too. Right, Yes, yes, 1707 01:24:39,120 --> 01:24:42,080 Speaker 1: we took so many calls about Bailey's app beyond this show, 1708 01:24:42,320 --> 01:24:44,960 Speaker 1: and nobody wanted to talk about how the Browns and 1709 01:24:45,000 --> 01:24:48,200 Speaker 1: the Lions are horrible defenses. And then Mac Jones carves 1710 01:24:48,320 --> 01:24:51,120 Speaker 1: up an average Minnesota defense and it's and it's like, 1711 01:24:51,200 --> 01:24:53,439 Speaker 1: oh wait, but he was playing the Vikings and their 1712 01:24:53,520 --> 01:24:57,240 Speaker 1: defense is bad. Oh really, those defenses were I'm sure 1713 01:24:57,479 --> 01:25:00,479 Speaker 1: the list the single worst defense in football at the time. Right, 1714 01:25:00,520 --> 01:25:07,360 Speaker 1: But nobody besides Paul, nobody like this show. We've talked 1715 01:25:07,360 --> 01:25:10,599 Speaker 1: about it at length, how bad. But when Mac Jones 1716 01:25:10,640 --> 01:25:14,280 Speaker 1: plays an average Minnesota defense and puts up four hundred yards, 1717 01:25:14,360 --> 01:25:17,320 Speaker 1: now it's just that the Vikings. I have not heard this, 1718 01:25:17,439 --> 01:25:21,519 Speaker 1: And when when Evan just brought up Zappy, it gave 1719 01:25:21,600 --> 01:25:25,519 Speaker 1: me reminded me. I haven't heard this combat. But evidently 1720 01:25:25,560 --> 01:25:29,840 Speaker 1: Tim Hasselbeck was on ESPN yesterday and you know, I 1721 01:25:30,200 --> 01:25:33,800 Speaker 1: think it was part of Get Up maybe, and I 1722 01:25:34,120 --> 01:25:36,280 Speaker 1: didn't hear the context, and I didn't hear I still 1723 01:25:36,320 --> 01:25:40,880 Speaker 1: haven't seen the clip, but evidently he alluded to towards 1724 01:25:40,920 --> 01:25:44,720 Speaker 1: the end of the clip that there's still some um 1725 01:25:47,280 --> 01:25:52,000 Speaker 1: zappy backers in the Patriots locker room. Tim Hasselback, No, no, no, 1726 01:25:52,320 --> 01:25:55,680 Speaker 1: I like, I don't know if I'm just I'm just 1727 01:25:56,400 --> 01:25:59,639 Speaker 1: I found it fascinating, like Matt coming off his best 1728 01:25:59,720 --> 01:26:03,439 Speaker 1: game him and for the timing of that, I thought, 1729 01:26:03,600 --> 01:26:05,439 Speaker 1: you know, I thought that was interesting. I don't think 1730 01:26:05,880 --> 01:26:08,479 Speaker 1: Tim Hasselbeck is in the Patriots locker room. I don't 1731 01:26:08,479 --> 01:26:10,760 Speaker 1: think he's talking to Patriots players all the time. I don't. 1732 01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:12,760 Speaker 1: That's not what I'm trying to say. But he's also 1733 01:26:12,840 --> 01:26:16,800 Speaker 1: not a guy. He's not like Stephen A. Smith where 1734 01:26:16,880 --> 01:26:21,400 Speaker 1: he's like plugged in, no, throwing crap over without any 1735 01:26:21,640 --> 01:26:24,720 Speaker 1: without any basis, and trying to be a muckraker. It's 1736 01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:27,280 Speaker 1: not what he's been about. Do you think there's somebody 1737 01:26:27,320 --> 01:26:30,120 Speaker 1: said something in him? Would be my guest. Yeah, it 1738 01:26:30,240 --> 01:26:32,200 Speaker 1: might have been second, second or third hand, could be. 1739 01:26:32,360 --> 01:26:34,439 Speaker 1: I think Nikovich was like in the tunnel the other 1740 01:26:34,520 --> 01:26:37,880 Speaker 1: day YEA opened the Jets game. So like Nikovich is 1741 01:26:38,720 --> 01:26:42,599 Speaker 1: on ESPN with Hasselbeck, you know, just kind of connecting dots. 1742 01:26:43,560 --> 01:26:46,320 Speaker 1: Alex and Raleigh. Last week, our defense had a tough 1743 01:26:46,360 --> 01:26:48,200 Speaker 1: time stop in the big plays in the air to 1744 01:26:48,320 --> 01:26:51,479 Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson. Tomorrow, we have a different challenge trying to 1745 01:26:51,520 --> 01:26:54,000 Speaker 1: contain Josh Allen and limit digs in the passing game. 1746 01:26:54,320 --> 01:26:56,040 Speaker 1: I think this will have to be a game where 1747 01:26:56,120 --> 01:26:58,640 Speaker 1: we do our best to cover digs and just let 1748 01:26:58,760 --> 01:27:01,080 Speaker 1: Josh Allen run around and see if he makes mistakes 1749 01:27:01,160 --> 01:27:03,360 Speaker 1: trying to make big plays. I know it may sound 1750 01:27:03,400 --> 01:27:06,759 Speaker 1: like a lousy way to win, but letting the opponent idea, 1751 01:27:06,920 --> 01:27:09,200 Speaker 1: but letting the opponent make mistakes has been part of 1752 01:27:09,240 --> 01:27:11,679 Speaker 1: the formula for us to win the last few seasons 1753 01:27:11,760 --> 01:27:14,280 Speaker 1: because of the lack of talent. When you're playing bad teams, 1754 01:27:14,320 --> 01:27:16,760 Speaker 1: that works. Do you think the defense struggled in the 1755 01:27:16,880 --> 01:27:19,439 Speaker 1: Vikings game because of the short turnaround. Will the week 1756 01:27:19,560 --> 01:27:22,360 Speaker 1: between games give them more time to prepare for Buffalo 1757 01:27:22,640 --> 01:27:25,679 Speaker 1: and limit the big plays? Maybe can't hurt That last 1758 01:27:25,720 --> 01:27:28,280 Speaker 1: part was the most truth. He said. Yeah, I don't know. 1759 01:27:28,320 --> 01:27:31,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I would I mean, maybe this is foolish, 1760 01:27:31,240 --> 01:27:33,080 Speaker 1: but I would say if a defense look tired, I 1761 01:27:33,120 --> 01:27:34,640 Speaker 1: think they get kind of pushed around in the run 1762 01:27:34,720 --> 01:27:37,080 Speaker 1: game a little bit more. You know that that's more. 1763 01:27:37,120 --> 01:27:39,880 Speaker 1: I also go back to that Friday press conference when 1764 01:27:40,040 --> 01:27:42,160 Speaker 1: Bill talked about how much work they had done in 1765 01:27:42,200 --> 01:27:45,120 Speaker 1: Minnesota during the bye week. So I think that they 1766 01:27:45,200 --> 01:27:48,240 Speaker 1: had a lot of prep work for Minnesota. But do 1767 01:27:48,320 --> 01:27:52,040 Speaker 1: you think we run around as the total opposite. That's 1768 01:27:52,120 --> 01:27:53,920 Speaker 1: not what I want to do. And I'm not get 1769 01:27:53,960 --> 01:27:57,360 Speaker 1: them like I think it's connat. I just I think 1770 01:27:57,400 --> 01:27:59,400 Speaker 1: that the key for the Patriots to have success is 1771 01:27:59,439 --> 01:28:02,439 Speaker 1: forcing some turnovers. But I'm not going to stand around 1772 01:28:02,479 --> 01:28:04,160 Speaker 1: and wait for him to throw it to him because 1773 01:28:05,200 --> 01:28:07,000 Speaker 1: that thing, I know what havn't brought up earlier where 1774 01:28:07,040 --> 01:28:08,479 Speaker 1: it's just like like they're like they're having like a 1775 01:28:08,560 --> 01:28:10,960 Speaker 1: prayer circle around him, like I'm really trying to get 1776 01:28:11,000 --> 01:28:12,640 Speaker 1: at you, and you know he's just sitting there like 1777 01:28:12,760 --> 01:28:15,560 Speaker 1: you no, you know, you know there it is, you know, 1778 01:28:15,680 --> 01:28:17,600 Speaker 1: right down the field. But you know what I was 1779 01:28:17,640 --> 01:28:19,040 Speaker 1: gonna say real quick me, do you think do you 1780 01:28:19,080 --> 01:28:21,400 Speaker 1: think the Zappie thing's gonna linger into camp next year? 1781 01:28:21,560 --> 01:28:23,360 Speaker 1: Training camp? I mean, is there any way that over 1782 01:28:23,400 --> 01:28:27,040 Speaker 1: the last sea I played plays like he played Thursday 1783 01:28:27,600 --> 01:28:29,599 Speaker 1: over the balance of the last six games. I don't 1784 01:28:29,600 --> 01:28:32,080 Speaker 1: think it will, right. But but if you play like 1785 01:28:32,160 --> 01:28:34,400 Speaker 1: you did against the Jets and the Colts in the 1786 01:28:34,479 --> 01:28:36,479 Speaker 1: games before that. I think it will. Yeah, Spi and 1787 01:28:36,520 --> 01:28:39,000 Speaker 1: Fresno says, I felt pleasantly Evin will be like a 1788 01:28:39,120 --> 01:28:42,439 Speaker 1: pleasure to deal with all offseason will be awesome. I 1789 01:28:42,520 --> 01:28:46,000 Speaker 1: felt pleasantly wrong after the Vikings game, thinking maybe Mac 1790 01:28:46,080 --> 01:28:49,400 Speaker 1: turned a corner. But you've all correctly noted Mac didn't 1791 01:28:49,400 --> 01:28:52,040 Speaker 1: step up in the clutch, so big questions remain. I 1792 01:28:52,160 --> 01:28:54,479 Speaker 1: know it might be a sad sack mentality, but like 1793 01:28:54,640 --> 01:28:57,560 Speaker 1: I said this past off season, I'm less concerned with 1794 01:28:57,720 --> 01:29:00,120 Speaker 1: winning a playoff game this year than with seeing can 1795 01:29:00,120 --> 01:29:02,800 Speaker 1: you'd uptick from Matt If you had to choose, which 1796 01:29:02,840 --> 01:29:07,280 Speaker 1: would you prefer one. Mac assens as an increasingly effective quarterback, 1797 01:29:07,320 --> 01:29:09,920 Speaker 1: but the Patriots don't make the playoffs because the defense 1798 01:29:10,000 --> 01:29:15,000 Speaker 1: falls apart or Mac remains as he's been in other words, 1799 01:29:15,040 --> 01:29:19,479 Speaker 1: doesn't convincently improve but the defense. The Patriots make it 1800 01:29:19,560 --> 01:29:22,519 Speaker 1: to the divisional round riding on a resurgence of the 1801 01:29:22,640 --> 01:29:24,920 Speaker 1: defense and a running game, so that means they won 1802 01:29:24,960 --> 01:29:28,400 Speaker 1: a playoff game. Right. Wow, I'd rather win the playoffs. 1803 01:29:28,400 --> 01:29:30,120 Speaker 1: I'd love to win a playoff game that I take 1804 01:29:30,120 --> 01:29:32,960 Speaker 1: the first one what are they gonna do with the 1805 01:29:33,080 --> 01:29:35,160 Speaker 1: draft pick? No, no, no, I don't care about the 1806 01:29:35,240 --> 01:29:38,200 Speaker 1: draft pick. I think it's more important that Mac Jones 1807 01:29:38,400 --> 01:29:42,599 Speaker 1: takes a discern like a noticeable step forward and establishes himself. 1808 01:29:42,680 --> 01:29:44,880 Speaker 1: I know he's really good. Like you didn't. You didn't 1809 01:29:44,880 --> 01:29:47,240 Speaker 1: win the playoff game ten three, which is describe a 1810 01:29:47,280 --> 01:29:50,840 Speaker 1: bitter pill. There is the defense falls apart, you know then, yeah, 1811 01:29:50,880 --> 01:29:52,519 Speaker 1: but I can I can deal with that. You need 1812 01:29:52,560 --> 01:29:54,200 Speaker 1: to score points to win in that league. I know, 1813 01:29:54,360 --> 01:29:56,360 Speaker 1: like I don't like, let's let's just put it this way. 1814 01:29:56,400 --> 01:29:58,800 Speaker 1: I'll give you, like a really realistic scenario that that 1815 01:29:58,840 --> 01:30:00,880 Speaker 1: could happen and you and I don't think you guys 1816 01:30:00,920 --> 01:30:03,040 Speaker 1: would feel great about it. You play Tennessee in the 1817 01:30:03,080 --> 01:30:05,880 Speaker 1: first round and you win thirteen ten. Yeah, No, I 1818 01:30:06,200 --> 01:30:08,840 Speaker 1: like Tennessee is a game that you can win because 1819 01:30:08,920 --> 01:30:10,920 Speaker 1: of the way they play. Right now, I agree with 1820 01:30:11,040 --> 01:30:14,160 Speaker 1: you there, yeah, And I would rather say, well, we 1821 01:30:14,320 --> 01:30:16,840 Speaker 1: fell short of the playoffs because the defense wasn't good enough, 1822 01:30:16,880 --> 01:30:19,760 Speaker 1: but we started scoring thirty points a game. We've got 1823 01:30:19,840 --> 01:30:22,120 Speaker 1: one bucks checked going into the next Right now, if 1824 01:30:22,160 --> 01:30:25,160 Speaker 1: I can figure out you know a couple of ways, now, 1825 01:30:25,200 --> 01:30:27,439 Speaker 1: I know I can score. If I can score, I 1826 01:30:27,520 --> 01:30:31,080 Speaker 1: have a shot. Merely the whole like cliche, like, as 1827 01:30:31,120 --> 01:30:33,120 Speaker 1: long as I got Brady, I got a shot. Why 1828 01:30:33,280 --> 01:30:35,880 Speaker 1: was that a real thing? Because you knew he was 1829 01:30:35,920 --> 01:30:38,880 Speaker 1: going to get you thirty every game. Yeah, and he 1830 01:30:38,960 --> 01:30:41,519 Speaker 1: would be right up until the sixtieth minute of the game. 1831 01:30:41,600 --> 01:30:43,559 Speaker 1: He would be fighting and would have a chance. He's 1832 01:30:43,560 --> 01:30:46,240 Speaker 1: gonna get you thirty. If he can just do the 1833 01:30:46,320 --> 01:30:49,439 Speaker 1: fread and make him not score three or four times, 1834 01:30:49,600 --> 01:30:52,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna win a hell of a lot of games 1835 01:30:52,320 --> 01:30:54,400 Speaker 1: because my guy's going to score more often than not. 1836 01:30:54,960 --> 01:30:57,080 Speaker 1: So if you get mac Jones, not to Brady's little 1837 01:30:57,080 --> 01:31:00,840 Speaker 1: but if you get mac Jones to that consistently good 1838 01:31:00,960 --> 01:31:03,120 Speaker 1: level where he's throwing for three hundred yards every week 1839 01:31:03,360 --> 01:31:06,280 Speaker 1: and you're scoring some points, I'd take that over a 1840 01:31:06,320 --> 01:31:09,679 Speaker 1: playoff win, all right, I agree with that. It's already 1841 01:31:09,880 --> 01:31:12,680 Speaker 1: it's Wednesday, but kind of like a Thursday on a 1842 01:31:12,760 --> 01:31:15,400 Speaker 1: Saturday before a Thursday game. So it's that time of 1843 01:31:15,439 --> 01:31:25,080 Speaker 1: the week. Paul, what happened last week? A Uh, Well, 1844 01:31:25,240 --> 01:31:29,120 Speaker 1: it was disappointing week last week because it wasn't a 1845 01:31:29,200 --> 01:31:34,200 Speaker 1: lot of audience participation. No um Evan and Alex never 1846 01:31:34,280 --> 01:31:38,400 Speaker 1: gave me any picks. It's a tough week. Even I 1847 01:31:38,520 --> 01:31:41,880 Speaker 1: gave picks so direct from the bus. It was a 1848 01:31:42,160 --> 01:31:45,559 Speaker 1: thanksgiving for all um. We all treated the holidays equally. 1849 01:31:45,640 --> 01:31:48,960 Speaker 1: We all went ten and six O Mike, Paul, Fred 1850 01:31:49,479 --> 01:31:54,599 Speaker 1: ten and six with the spread, Fred and Paul nine 1851 01:31:54,680 --> 01:31:56,519 Speaker 1: and seven, Mike eight and eight. So we were all 1852 01:31:57,400 --> 01:32:00,519 Speaker 1: right around the same, bunched around getting the field update 1853 01:32:00,640 --> 01:32:03,880 Speaker 1: one ten sixty nine and one for me, one game behind, 1854 01:32:04,000 --> 01:32:06,040 Speaker 1: ninety nine sixty four and one for Mike, one oh 1855 01:32:06,120 --> 01:32:09,840 Speaker 1: two seventy seven and one for Fred. With the spread. 1856 01:32:10,520 --> 01:32:14,240 Speaker 1: I continue to amaze myself one oh seven seventy and three, 1857 01:32:14,560 --> 01:32:19,280 Speaker 1: although that knocked my winning percentage down a tick. Eighty 1858 01:32:19,400 --> 01:32:24,479 Speaker 1: nine eighty eight and three for Mike and seventy seven 1859 01:32:24,640 --> 01:32:27,960 Speaker 1: one hundred and three for Fred. Yeah, I got some 1860 01:32:28,120 --> 01:32:30,920 Speaker 1: making up to do it getting down there, all right. 1861 01:32:31,080 --> 01:32:36,439 Speaker 1: So we're actually gonna skip over tomorrow night's game. I 1862 01:32:36,520 --> 01:32:39,559 Speaker 1: mean we're gonna go right to Sunday at one, where 1863 01:32:39,720 --> 01:32:42,920 Speaker 1: the four and seventh Steelers are visiting the five and 1864 01:32:43,080 --> 01:32:47,360 Speaker 1: seven Falcons Atlanta by one and a half by one 1865 01:32:47,400 --> 01:32:50,120 Speaker 1: and a half, Pittsburgh pulling out a win there. On 1866 01:32:50,200 --> 01:32:55,000 Speaker 1: Monday Night football, short turnaround, go to Atlanta. I don't know. 1867 01:32:55,040 --> 01:32:58,000 Speaker 1: I don't really like Atlanta. They just they're up and down. 1868 01:32:58,040 --> 01:33:00,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Pittsburgh. I don't know, this one's kind 1869 01:33:00,800 --> 01:33:04,160 Speaker 1: of whatever. I'm taking the Steelers as well. No, Kyle 1870 01:33:04,240 --> 01:33:06,519 Speaker 1: pitts Now for the Falcons, I think is a big one. 1871 01:33:06,560 --> 01:33:09,479 Speaker 1: And although it was a little Mac Jones rookie year 1872 01:33:09,600 --> 01:33:11,920 Speaker 1: from Kenny Pickett where it wasn't much down the field, 1873 01:33:12,000 --> 01:33:15,040 Speaker 1: I thought that he looked okay in that Colts game. Yeah, 1874 01:33:15,040 --> 01:33:17,480 Speaker 1: he's getting better. I think he's showing signs of improvement. 1875 01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:21,800 Speaker 1: I'm going to take Atlanta, however, because of what Mike said, 1876 01:33:21,840 --> 01:33:24,600 Speaker 1: the short turnaround, back to back road games, Uh, I 1877 01:33:24,680 --> 01:33:27,439 Speaker 1: think that's tough. The Falcons have been competitive in every game. 1878 01:33:27,479 --> 01:33:30,000 Speaker 1: They've had a chance to win every game. They stink too, 1879 01:33:30,200 --> 01:33:32,360 Speaker 1: but I'll take the home team. I'm gonna take the 1880 01:33:32,400 --> 01:33:35,840 Speaker 1: Falcons as well. I think the Steelers did everything they 1881 01:33:35,880 --> 01:33:39,840 Speaker 1: could to avoid losing to Jeff Saturday because of the 1882 01:33:39,960 --> 01:33:44,160 Speaker 1: comments that the coach had, and they barely did it. Um. Yeah, 1883 01:33:44,400 --> 01:33:46,040 Speaker 1: did Saturday screw that game up? At the end? I 1884 01:33:46,160 --> 01:33:50,640 Speaker 1: hurt it was brutal. Yeah, I mean they were just 1885 01:33:50,760 --> 01:33:52,120 Speaker 1: they were out of but I think it was like 1886 01:33:52,360 --> 01:33:54,240 Speaker 1: a third down play maybe, and it was just everybody 1887 01:33:54,320 --> 01:33:56,320 Speaker 1: was in chaos and you're like call a time out? 1888 01:33:56,360 --> 01:33:58,000 Speaker 1: What do you yet? All three of them? And yeah, 1889 01:33:58,400 --> 01:34:00,519 Speaker 1: he's after the game said recret right, I'll go with 1890 01:34:00,560 --> 01:34:03,240 Speaker 1: the Falcon Sunday at one to three and eight Broncos 1891 01:34:03,479 --> 01:34:06,280 Speaker 1: or at the seven and four Ravens. Wow, back to 1892 01:34:06,320 --> 01:34:11,040 Speaker 1: back road games for the Sunday night. Yeah, Baltimore by 1893 01:34:11,160 --> 01:34:14,320 Speaker 1: eight eight. Yeah, let's hope we get news like that 1894 01:34:14,479 --> 01:34:17,040 Speaker 1: next Tuesday. For good reason, I didn't see any of 1895 01:34:17,080 --> 01:34:20,519 Speaker 1: that Baltimore game last weekend. But it's a good game. Weird, weird, 1896 01:34:20,560 --> 01:34:22,519 Speaker 1: good game. It was a weird game. Was another red 1897 01:34:22,600 --> 01:34:25,000 Speaker 1: zone game. Ravens couldn't score in the red zone. Yeah, well, 1898 01:34:25,000 --> 01:34:27,559 Speaker 1: I'll take the Ravens against Denver. I also just read 1899 01:34:27,600 --> 01:34:29,639 Speaker 1: that only half the team showed up to Russell Wilson's 1900 01:34:29,680 --> 01:34:33,479 Speaker 1: birthday party, so there might be some problems. What's what's 1901 01:34:33,520 --> 01:34:37,559 Speaker 1: the quarterback limited? What's the quarterback's name? And the draft day? 1902 01:34:37,960 --> 01:34:40,360 Speaker 1: No one much was birthday? I forget and I'm proud 1903 01:34:40,400 --> 01:34:44,439 Speaker 1: of myself. I don't remember that that movie was I 1904 01:34:44,520 --> 01:34:47,960 Speaker 1: thought it wasn't okay, it was okay, I cut like 1905 01:34:48,280 --> 01:34:51,360 Speaker 1: like for the type of movie, it was no, no, 1906 01:34:51,560 --> 01:34:54,200 Speaker 1: I thought they did it. It was Smontsey and my wife, 1907 01:34:54,240 --> 01:34:57,040 Speaker 1: who knows nothing about football, somehow she right like this 1908 01:34:57,240 --> 01:35:01,519 Speaker 1: is great, like she understood the draft, like no problem 1909 01:35:01,560 --> 01:35:05,519 Speaker 1: that I'm over there, Like yeah, I was doing Evan 1910 01:35:06,120 --> 01:35:10,439 Speaker 1: couldn't get ustic nature of the trade exactly. Yeah, that's 1911 01:35:10,439 --> 01:35:13,080 Speaker 1: exactly what I was. Where's the scouts? The film breakdown? 1912 01:35:13,160 --> 01:35:15,400 Speaker 1: That's what people were. Why why can't you just bring 1913 01:35:15,479 --> 01:35:18,120 Speaker 1: in a consultant of like this is how It's like 1914 01:35:18,200 --> 01:35:21,840 Speaker 1: Mike Lombardi is just sitting there on his podcast nobody wants. 1915 01:35:23,760 --> 01:35:26,560 Speaker 1: Can you imagine if he was involved in that, at 1916 01:35:26,600 --> 01:35:28,840 Speaker 1: least they would have had some semblance of realistic And 1917 01:35:28,960 --> 01:35:30,519 Speaker 1: he was at the Browns for a while too. Oh 1918 01:35:30,640 --> 01:35:33,760 Speaker 1: the ego that would have been involved in that. Okay, 1919 01:35:33,800 --> 01:35:37,320 Speaker 1: So Baltimore Bright A sorry, yeah, the Sharps know something here. 1920 01:35:38,080 --> 01:35:40,160 Speaker 1: Otherwise I think it would have been seven and a hey, 1921 01:35:41,600 --> 01:35:45,400 Speaker 1: do you have a pick? Evan, Um Paul just ignores it. 1922 01:35:46,240 --> 01:35:50,720 Speaker 1: I'm taking Baltimore. I just this Russell Wilson situation in 1923 01:35:50,840 --> 01:35:54,080 Speaker 1: Denver is horrible. It's horrible submarine that franch.

I'm gonna take Cleveland, um, 1976 01:38:44,400 --> 01:38:46,120 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna lay the points. I feel I feel 1977 01:38:46,160 --> 01:38:49,599 Speaker 1: bad doing that though. I gotta take the Browns because 1978 01:38:49,600 --> 01:38:52,080 Speaker 1: the Texans are terrible. But I do hope that Deshaun 1979 01:38:52,160 --> 01:38:56,800 Speaker 1: Watson like tears his acl or something like that. I 1980 01:38:56,880 --> 01:39:00,680 Speaker 1: can't even believe I'm on this show taking Cleveland. I'm 1981 01:39:00,720 --> 01:39:03,960 Speaker 1: taking Cleveland and Jacoby Brissette after Deshaun Watson there, you 1982 01:39:04,000 --> 01:39:08,320 Speaker 1: guys know, I will take Cleveland as well. I thought 1983 01:39:08,320 --> 01:39:10,720 Speaker 1: it was interesting, you know, Brissette talking. You know, like 1984 01:39:10,840 --> 01:39:12,840 Speaker 1: I proved that on the starting quarterback in this league, 1985 01:39:12,840 --> 01:39:15,240 Speaker 1: and I'm like, did you did you? You didn't really 1986 01:39:15,280 --> 01:39:19,200 Speaker 1: look that four and seven? I will take the Browns. Yeah. 1987 01:39:19,200 --> 01:39:21,240 Speaker 1: I love me some Jacoby Brissette, but I don't want 1988 01:39:21,280 --> 01:39:23,519 Speaker 1: him playing quarterback. Well, my team trying to get my 1989 01:39:23,600 --> 01:39:27,599 Speaker 1: hands around this game. Um, I'm gonna take the Browns. 1990 01:39:27,800 --> 01:39:30,640 Speaker 1: But you know what, I think the Texans cover. I 1991 01:39:30,720 --> 01:39:33,400 Speaker 1: think the Texas cover being back in Houston and all 1992 01:39:33,439 --> 01:39:37,280 Speaker 1: that stuff. For evidently ten of the victims are going 1993 01:39:37,360 --> 01:39:39,200 Speaker 1: to be at the game with the lawyer. That's great. 1994 01:39:39,640 --> 01:39:40,760 Speaker 1: It is that what it is going to be with 1995 01:39:40,880 --> 01:39:43,840 Speaker 1: Buzz the lawyer. I think put them all together. That 1996 01:39:43,960 --> 01:39:50,240 Speaker 1: guy's a snaky buzz Aldrin Tony buzzby buzz Aldrin. Uh 1997 01:39:50,400 --> 01:39:53,519 Speaker 1: Sunday at one the seven and four Jets, we talked 1998 01:39:53,520 --> 01:39:56,240 Speaker 1: about this game, or at the Vikings nine and two 1999 01:39:57,000 --> 01:40:00,320 Speaker 1: Vikings by three the Mighty Mighty Skull. This is such 2000 01:40:00,360 --> 01:40:02,760 Speaker 1: the Vikings to just lose this game. I mean, that's 2001 01:40:02,800 --> 01:40:04,799 Speaker 1: what they are, right like that this is like feels 2002 01:40:04,840 --> 01:40:07,640 Speaker 1: like it, um, But I am curious how they match up. 2003 01:40:07,680 --> 01:40:09,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna give Minnesota the benefit of the 2004 01:40:10,000 --> 01:40:11,720 Speaker 1: doubt based on how they play, but I have full 2005 01:40:11,800 --> 01:40:14,920 Speaker 1: knowledge that Kirk Cousins could look completely different in this 2006 01:40:15,080 --> 01:40:17,800 Speaker 1: game and lose to the Jets. This is such a 2007 01:40:17,880 --> 01:40:20,920 Speaker 1: weird game because I agree with you totally on your 2008 01:40:21,080 --> 01:40:24,320 Speaker 1: Vikings take, but I also think that Water might find 2009 01:40:24,360 --> 01:40:26,479 Speaker 1: its level with Mike White. So it's like which one 2010 01:40:26,560 --> 01:40:29,040 Speaker 1: do you lean towards it? And I'm gonna lean towards 2011 01:40:29,080 --> 01:40:31,360 Speaker 1: the Vikings at home just because they're at home and 2012 01:40:31,400 --> 01:40:33,879 Speaker 1: Fred and I were in that building. That building is awesome, 2013 01:40:34,000 --> 01:40:37,320 Speaker 1: Like it gets loud in there. It's a great atmosphere. 2014 01:40:38,920 --> 01:40:41,800 Speaker 1: So I think that that's a factor that Minnesota and 2015 01:40:42,000 --> 01:40:45,439 Speaker 1: I like the melt. Yeah, there no gout in my drink. 2016 01:40:45,520 --> 01:40:47,200 Speaker 1: It's a faith. But what is it that is? Like, 2017 01:40:47,400 --> 01:40:48,880 Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. I'm sure it's not 2018 01:40:49,080 --> 01:40:52,160 Speaker 1: nothing poisonous. Um. We'll find out in a couple of years. 2019 01:40:52,240 --> 01:40:54,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take the cheese, I'm gonna take the Jets, 2020 01:40:54,280 --> 01:40:58,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take the for it. Evan unfolded all of 2021 01:40:58,360 --> 01:41:01,400 Speaker 1: the decides perfectly. I can see it. I'm just gonna 2022 01:41:01,479 --> 01:41:03,200 Speaker 1: ride the hot hand. I think that they looked like 2023 01:41:03,240 --> 01:41:05,120 Speaker 1: a different offense with him. I think they looked like 2024 01:41:05,160 --> 01:41:07,240 Speaker 1: they had more fun playing with him. He was like, 2025 01:41:07,439 --> 01:41:11,000 Speaker 1: you know, actually checking it down. It does, it does 2026 01:41:11,040 --> 01:41:13,120 Speaker 1: sounds it sounds just like that. I have no illusions 2027 01:41:13,160 --> 01:41:16,680 Speaker 1: that he's the answer. But until he plays bad, he's 2028 01:41:16,720 --> 01:41:20,080 Speaker 1: gonna play. I think he goes on the road and 2029 01:41:20,360 --> 01:41:25,720 Speaker 1: they come back three three Minnesota Karin Wilson. Yeah, I'm 2030 01:41:25,760 --> 01:41:29,000 Speaker 1: gonna hedge here. I'll take the vikings, but I'll take 2031 01:41:29,080 --> 01:41:33,720 Speaker 1: the points. I'll take the points. Uh.

That's interesting, home dogs. I take 2043 01:42:14,200 --> 01:42:16,759 Speaker 1: the Giants, and for that reason, I'm taking the Giants 2044 01:42:16,800 --> 01:42:20,599 Speaker 1: as well.

I continue to be 2049 01:42:34,800 --> 01:42:37,599 Speaker 1: amazed by, you know, just how solid a football team 2050 01:42:37,600 --> 01:42:40,240 Speaker 1: they are. But I don't think it's enough against the 2051 01:42:40,320 --> 01:42:42,880 Speaker 1: explosive Philadelphia Eagles offense. I will take them, and I 2052 01:42:42,960 --> 01:42:46,639 Speaker 1: will lay those points. I'm taking the Eagles. The Eagles 2053 01:42:46,720 --> 01:42:48,840 Speaker 1: offense is like what I dream of and like my 2054 01:42:49,160 --> 01:42:52,759 Speaker 1: my fevorite dreams, just like all the quarterback round elements 2055 01:42:52,840 --> 01:42:55,760 Speaker 1: solid RPOs.

I just have so 2062 01:43:20,960 --> 01:43:23,880 Speaker 1: much respect for Rabel and his ability to come a 2063 01:43:24,000 --> 01:43:25,640 Speaker 1: pig in spots like this. Don't you do that to 2064 01:43:25,720 --> 01:43:29,920 Speaker 1: my Sirian? Yeah, I think, um, this is gonna be interesting. 2065 01:43:30,200 --> 01:43:33,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put it out there early. I'd be very 2066 01:43:33,120 --> 01:43:35,200 Speaker 1: surprised if Jalen Hurts runs for one hundred and ten 2067 01:43:35,280 --> 01:43:37,320 Speaker 1: yards like you know, like he has been against real 2068 01:43:37,439 --> 01:43:39,479 Speaker 1: because I just don't think Rabel will allow I don't 2069 01:43:39,520 --> 01:43:43,160 Speaker 1: think that. Just sorry, yeah, I don't think Jeffrey Simmons allow. Yeah, 2070 01:43:43,760 --> 01:43:45,559 Speaker 1: figure out a way to you know, not just allow 2071 01:43:45,680 --> 01:43:50,439 Speaker 1: him to run. You're saying Titans out right. Wow. Um, 2072 01:43:50,640 --> 01:43:52,760 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go quite there. But the Sharps, dude 2073 01:43:52,800 --> 01:43:55,439 Speaker 1: know something, you know, because it's five and a hay, 2074 01:43:56,200 --> 01:43:59,120 Speaker 1: which is two and a hay. So I think the 2075 01:43:59,240 --> 01:44:03,320 Speaker 1: Eagles win, but the Titans cover. You see what you've done? 2076 01:44:05,080 --> 01:44:08,160 Speaker 1: All right? Now?

I had 2085 01:44:39,280 --> 01:44:44,040 Speaker 1: Fred Bingle for that one. But I'm gonna take Seattle 2086 01:44:44,120 --> 01:44:46,559 Speaker 1: and I will lay the points. I'm gonna take Seattle 2087 01:44:46,680 --> 01:44:49,759 Speaker 1: do the same exact thing. Aaron Donald high ankle, sprain. 2088 01:44:49,760 --> 01:44:51,479 Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna play in this game. He's 2089 01:44:51,479 --> 01:44:54,320 Speaker 1: also flirting with retirements. To both of your points. The 2090 01:44:54,520 --> 01:45:00,200 Speaker 1: season goes south, both McVeigh and Donald flirted with retire him, 2091 01:45:00,240 --> 01:45:02,160 Speaker 1: and after winning the Super Bowl, you go three and 2092 01:45:02,280 --> 01:45:07,840 Speaker 1: eight like moves back. I know Robinson, Yeah, he hit 2093 01:45:07,880 --> 01:45:11,400 Speaker 1: his head. I think Seattle might be sort of hitting 2094 01:45:11,400 --> 01:45:13,920 Speaker 1: the wall and going the other way. But I'm gonna 2095 01:45:13,920 --> 01:45:15,599 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do what you guys did. I'm gonna take 2096 01:45:15,600 --> 01:45:17,640 Speaker 1: Seattle and lay the points. I kind of like the 2097 01:45:18,080 --> 01:45:20,960 Speaker 1: is it Bryce Perkins? I thought he showed a couple 2098 01:45:21,000 --> 01:45:24,760 Speaker 1: of signs of ability. Yeah, the other day, I'll take 2099 01:45:25,000 --> 01:45:27,960 Speaker 1: one drive anyway, I'll take Seattle and I'll take the points. 2100 01:45:28,040 --> 01:45:31,040 Speaker 1: He didn't play it very well. Seattle and you'll take 2101 01:45:31,120 --> 01:45:33,439 Speaker 1: the points, so you like the latter. I'll take the points. 2102 01:45:34,680 --> 01:45:38,880 Speaker 1: Four h five, eight and three Dolphins against these seven 2103 01:45:38,960 --> 01:45:41,680 Speaker 1: and four nine might be the game with the drink game, 2104 01:45:42,320 --> 01:45:45,439 Speaker 1: great game. San Francisco by three and a half. Mike 2105 01:45:45,520 --> 01:45:50,760 Speaker 1: McDaniel against his former mentor. Um, yeah, I think I 2106 01:45:50,840 --> 01:45:54,040 Speaker 1: gotta go with Miami on this one. Um yeah, I 2107 01:45:54,120 --> 01:45:56,200 Speaker 1: mean two of plane lights out like him a little 2108 01:45:56,240 --> 01:45:59,800 Speaker 1: better than Jimmy Gum. I'm gonna take Miami and I 2109 01:46:00,000 --> 01:46:03,400 Speaker 1: will take the points with me in the middle of 2110 01:46:03,400 --> 01:46:08,240 Speaker 1: the night. In my dreams, it's Mike McDaniel against Nick Sirianni. 2111 01:46:08,640 --> 01:46:12,599 Speaker 1: The Dolphins defense also has some times when they creep 2112 01:46:12,680 --> 01:46:21,519 Speaker 1: into the dreams. You're naughty monkey, give me that Miami, Miami. 2113 01:46:22,400 --> 01:46:26,080 Speaker 1: I just like the quarterback better right now. Um, that's fair. 2114 01:46:26,280 --> 01:46:29,200 Speaker 1: I am going to take the defense. I'm gonna take 2115 01:46:29,280 --> 01:46:31,160 Speaker 1: San Francisco, but I will take the Hey, I'll take 2116 01:46:31,200 --> 01:46:34,000 Speaker 1: the hook and I'll take Miami. It's fun to see this. Yeah, 2117 01:46:34,080 --> 01:46:36,439 Speaker 1: that's the big thing. What can the forty nineties defense 2118 01:46:36,560 --> 01:46:40,960 Speaker 1: do against the Dolphins. Um, I'll do the same thing 2119 01:46:41,000 --> 01:46:43,000 Speaker 1: as Paul. I'm gonna take the forty nineties but I'll 2120 01:46:43,040 --> 01:46:47,719 Speaker 1: take those points. Four twenty five, nine and two Chiefs 2121 01:46:47,960 --> 01:46:53,000 Speaker 1: are at these seven and four Bengals. Uh Kansas City 2122 01:46:53,040 --> 01:46:57,439 Speaker 1: by two and a half. Big big game. Since then, 2123 01:46:57,560 --> 01:46:59,360 Speaker 1: he's got a tough schedule. They do. They got a 2124 01:46:59,400 --> 01:47:03,040 Speaker 1: really tough edum. But you know what, I still continue 2125 01:47:03,040 --> 01:47:06,040 Speaker 1: to think Patrick Mahomes and Casey are the class of 2126 01:47:06,080 --> 01:47:08,040 Speaker 1: the AFC. I'm going to take them on the road 2127 01:47:08,280 --> 01:47:12,920 Speaker 1: and I will lay those points. Jamar Chase, I think 2128 01:47:13,040 --> 01:47:15,360 Speaker 1: said that he was targeting this game to come back, 2129 01:47:15,479 --> 01:47:18,600 Speaker 1: but I still think that's fifty fifty. I like the 2130 01:47:18,680 --> 01:47:21,080 Speaker 1: Chiefs too. I'm gonna take Kansas City. That'd be a 2131 01:47:21,120 --> 01:47:23,519 Speaker 1: big break for the Patriots. If if the Chiefs can 2132 01:47:23,760 --> 01:47:26,639 Speaker 1: knock off the Bengals, yeah, get them to five losses. 2133 01:47:26,720 --> 01:47:30,519 Speaker 1: So here's where I think fred this year may be 2134 01:47:30,640 --> 01:47:33,479 Speaker 1: different than past years. It was like you could book 2135 01:47:33,560 --> 01:47:35,640 Speaker 1: this one Kansas City would win because that's what the 2136 01:47:35,680 --> 01:47:38,280 Speaker 1: Patriots would need. I don't think some of those things 2137 01:47:38,320 --> 01:47:40,360 Speaker 1: are happening like they used to have. They didn't have 2138 01:47:40,479 --> 01:47:43,519 Speaker 1: him last last week it was basically and even the 2139 01:47:43,600 --> 01:47:46,280 Speaker 1: bye week there was one Gay I think the Chargers lost, 2140 01:47:46,320 --> 01:47:48,400 Speaker 1: but all of the other games that the Patriots would 2141 01:47:48,439 --> 01:47:52,640 Speaker 1: have quote unquote wanted didn't really happen. I'm gonna take Cincinnati. 2142 01:47:52,840 --> 01:47:54,720 Speaker 1: I think they beat him last year at home, and 2143 01:47:54,800 --> 01:47:57,680 Speaker 1: I think they do it again at home. Yeah, I'm 2144 01:47:57,720 --> 01:48:01,600 Speaker 1: gonna go with Kansas City to win outright. This is 2145 01:48:01,600 --> 01:48:03,439 Speaker 1: a kind of big game for them too, because you know, 2146 01:48:03,520 --> 01:48:06,280 Speaker 1: the Dolphins are on their heels for the top seed 2147 01:48:06,600 --> 01:48:08,640 Speaker 1: and the Bills and the Bills, so they've they've got 2148 01:48:08,760 --> 01:48:10,880 Speaker 1: to keep pace here they correct. It's a big game 2149 01:48:10,920 --> 01:48:13,560 Speaker 1: for bull teams. Absolutely, Yeah, So I'm gonna go with 2150 01:48:13,680 --> 01:48:17,599 Speaker 1: the Chiefs four twenty five, six and five. Chargers are 2151 01:48:17,680 --> 01:48:20,920 Speaker 1: at the four and seven. Raiders playing better lately. The 2152 01:48:21,080 --> 01:48:24,200 Speaker 1: lack of bite two. That's another one, Patriots. You know, 2153 01:48:24,360 --> 01:48:27,840 Speaker 1: the Chargers, the Dolphins, the Jets, and the Bengals. Those 2154 01:48:27,840 --> 01:48:29,840 Speaker 1: are the four teams that you're kind of in competition 2155 01:48:29,920 --> 01:48:33,040 Speaker 1: for the wildcard spot. I'm gonna I'm sorry, Josh, but 2156 01:48:33,439 --> 01:48:35,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the Chargers on the road, and 2157 01:48:35,840 --> 01:48:38,800 Speaker 1: I will lay the points. I think Josh does them 2158 01:48:38,840 --> 01:48:42,320 Speaker 1: as solid in this game. Chargers run defenses putrid has 2159 01:48:42,360 --> 01:48:44,200 Speaker 1: been for years. Then you've got to be careful who 2160 01:48:44,240 --> 01:48:47,400 Speaker 1: you're rooting for. Josh Jacobs fran for what three hundred 2161 01:48:47,520 --> 01:48:51,400 Speaker 1: last week or something like that against Seattle Scrimmage. And 2162 01:48:51,439 --> 01:48:55,080 Speaker 1: I still feel like there's something wrong with Justin Herbert 2163 01:48:55,120 --> 01:48:58,120 Speaker 1: that he just like can't I don't know, it's just 2164 01:48:58,280 --> 01:49:01,519 Speaker 1: something missing, something there, but that I like the Raiders 2165 01:49:01,600 --> 01:49:04,479 Speaker 1: at home. Yeah, I'm with Evan. I think the Raiders are, 2166 01:49:05,000 --> 01:49:06,960 Speaker 1: you know, starting to make a little bit of a push, 2167 01:49:07,080 --> 01:49:09,519 Speaker 1: and like if they win this game and they get 2168 01:49:09,560 --> 01:49:11,479 Speaker 1: to five and seven and then you play them in 2169 01:49:11,520 --> 01:49:13,760 Speaker 1: two weeks, you know, like assuming that they if the 2170 01:49:13,840 --> 01:49:18,800 Speaker 1: Prios lose, it could be tied. Yeah. Yeah, I'll take 2171 01:49:18,840 --> 01:49:20,719 Speaker 1: the Raiders. I think they're playing better than the Charges. 2172 01:49:20,800 --> 01:49:22,880 Speaker 1: The Charges are a funny team. They have like games 2173 01:49:22,920 --> 01:49:25,960 Speaker 1: within games, you know, like they're good and bad in 2174 01:49:26,320 --> 01:49:28,960 Speaker 1: the same game. It's weird. I don't have a weird 2175 01:49:29,040 --> 01:49:32,720 Speaker 1: decision asking too much out of like Josh Palmer. You 2176 01:49:32,800 --> 01:49:35,840 Speaker 1: know that's an example, like, yeah, so I'm gonna go 2177 01:49:35,920 --> 01:49:39,240 Speaker 1: with the Raiders to win this game, um, just because 2178 01:49:39,280 --> 01:49:42,960 Speaker 1: it helps us alone. Probably. Now we moved to UH 2179 01:49:43,520 --> 01:49:49,600 Speaker 1: eight twenty one, the four, seven and one Jeff Saturdays 2180 01:49:49,840 --> 01:49:52,880 Speaker 1: are at the eight and three Cowboys. There's another big 2181 01:49:53,080 --> 01:49:55,519 Speaker 1: that was the one result that went to Patriot's Way, Like, yeah, 2182 01:49:55,720 --> 01:49:58,200 Speaker 1: you know five six and one, they're back end too. 2183 01:49:58,560 --> 01:49:59,920 Speaker 1: You know that was a big loss for the col 2184 01:50:00,439 --> 01:50:04,519 Speaker 1: Dallas by nine and a half. Yeah, I think, uh, 2185 01:50:04,680 --> 01:50:06,640 Speaker 1: I think it's over with Jeff Saturday. I'm gonna take 2186 01:50:06,680 --> 01:50:08,760 Speaker 1: Dallas to win, but I don't know. I'm just gonna 2187 01:50:08,760 --> 01:50:10,960 Speaker 1: take the points for fun. And uh, I think it's 2188 01:50:11,000 --> 01:50:15,040 Speaker 1: a close game. I would have taken Dallas if they 2189 01:50:15,080 --> 01:50:17,160 Speaker 1: were plus twenty to win minus twenty to win this 2190 01:50:17,280 --> 01:50:21,880 Speaker 1: game blowout City, no chance. I'm not as confident as seven, 2191 01:50:21,920 --> 01:50:24,320 Speaker 1: but I'm taking Dallas. I'm gonna lay the points to Yeah, 2192 01:50:24,360 --> 01:50:28,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Cowboys both ways. Um, just you know, 2193 01:50:28,400 --> 01:50:32,800 Speaker 1: put a licking on the colts. Um eight fifteen, Monday Night, 2194 01:50:33,360 --> 01:50:36,200 Speaker 1: the four and eight Saints are at the five and 2195 01:50:36,400 --> 01:50:43,519 Speaker 1: six Buccaneers Bucks by four, books by four. Uh. Well 2196 01:50:44,560 --> 01:50:47,519 Speaker 1: this is I mean putrid division, um and always a 2197 01:50:47,600 --> 01:50:49,720 Speaker 1: tough game for the Bucks. Yeah, you can't play well 2198 01:50:49,720 --> 01:50:52,080 Speaker 1: against the Saint. Yeah, but I think this year is different. 2199 01:50:52,120 --> 01:50:56,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take I'm gonna take TB TB and I'll yeah, 2200 01:50:56,439 --> 01:50:57,840 Speaker 1: you know what I'm gonna take. I'm gonna take the 2201 01:50:57,880 --> 01:50:59,519 Speaker 1: points though. I think it's gonna be close. But what's 2202 01:50:59,520 --> 01:51:02,679 Speaker 1: all this rumors, like like he's dating all these women? Now? Brady? 2203 01:51:02,920 --> 01:51:04,760 Speaker 1: Good for him?

UM Bills by five. Fife yeah, 2241 01:53:26,720 --> 01:53:28,920 Speaker 1: I wish I could. Uh, I wish I could take it. 2242 01:53:29,360 --> 01:53:33,040 Speaker 1: The Patriots I can't. Um, I feel like I couldn't, 2243 01:53:33,080 --> 01:53:35,880 Speaker 1: but I willow. I feel like they're gonna They're gonna 2244 01:53:35,880 --> 01:53:37,800 Speaker 1: put up a pretty good little fight though. I think, Um, 2245 01:53:37,880 --> 01:53:39,200 Speaker 1: I just I think it's the end of the game 2246 01:53:39,320 --> 01:53:41,479 Speaker 1: is going to be where Buffalo kind of makes the 2247 01:53:41,560 --> 01:53:43,880 Speaker 1: plays and pulls away, and that's kind of a characteristic 2248 01:53:43,920 --> 01:53:46,360 Speaker 1: of the Patriots. I know Buffalo has had some late 2249 01:53:46,439 --> 01:53:49,559 Speaker 1: game collapses. I don't think it happens against New England. 2250 01:53:50,160 --> 01:53:51,800 Speaker 1: I went a little bit higher on my score when 2251 01:53:51,840 --> 01:53:54,519 Speaker 1: we meet our initial predictions there back on the TV show, 2252 01:53:54,520 --> 01:53:57,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna bring that a little bit down. Um, But 2253 01:53:57,200 --> 01:54:00,439 Speaker 1: I still I still got the Bills thirty five twenty 2254 01:54:01,640 --> 01:54:03,360 Speaker 1: so I think it's going to be closer than that. 2255 01:54:04,000 --> 01:54:06,120 Speaker 1: I think that it's going to play out a lot 2256 01:54:06,240 --> 01:54:08,719 Speaker 1: like the Vikings game did. I have the Bills thirty 2257 01:54:08,800 --> 01:54:11,880 Speaker 1: to twenty seven. And again, I think that the Patriots 2258 01:54:11,920 --> 01:54:13,320 Speaker 1: are just not going to be able to make the 2259 01:54:13,400 --> 01:54:15,920 Speaker 1: plays in the fourth quarter in a close game. But 2260 01:54:16,160 --> 01:54:18,680 Speaker 1: I think between the fact that they got ran off 2261 01:54:18,680 --> 01:54:21,439 Speaker 1: the field in the playoff game and if you've dropped 2262 01:54:21,479 --> 01:54:25,439 Speaker 1: to six and six your seasons probably is so I 2263 01:54:25,479 --> 01:54:27,760 Speaker 1: think they're going to come out with a pretty good 2264 01:54:27,800 --> 01:54:30,040 Speaker 1: fight in this game. But I think that Buffalo makes 2265 01:54:30,080 --> 01:54:31,760 Speaker 1: the plays in the end. I do think that they 2266 01:54:31,840 --> 01:54:35,120 Speaker 1: are highly motivated. I think that you guys, Mike. I 2267 01:54:35,200 --> 01:54:36,880 Speaker 1: think you brought up that they've been hearing a lot 2268 01:54:36,920 --> 01:54:39,520 Speaker 1: about the lack of punts, and I think that's a 2269 01:54:39,680 --> 01:54:43,400 Speaker 1: huge source of motivation for the defense specifically. I just 2270 01:54:43,520 --> 01:54:46,880 Speaker 1: don't think they're good enough on either side of the ball, really, 2271 01:54:47,000 --> 01:54:50,360 Speaker 1: but I don't anticipate a blowout. I think at home, 2272 01:54:50,600 --> 01:54:53,200 Speaker 1: it's like what Evans said. I think they'll make some 2273 01:54:53,320 --> 01:54:55,200 Speaker 1: plays and have a chance, but the other team's just 2274 01:54:55,240 --> 01:54:59,080 Speaker 1: a little bit better. I'll take Buffalo thirty one twenty three. 2275 01:55:00,080 --> 01:55:03,400 Speaker 1: You know it comes a time, Yeah, listen, twelve and 2276 01:55:03,480 --> 01:55:05,920 Speaker 1: five is still in the cards for the Patriots, correct, 2277 01:55:06,080 --> 01:55:08,720 Speaker 1: and the run starts tomorrow night. An it's the first 2278 01:55:08,760 --> 01:55:12,000 Speaker 1: time all week that you said that. Yeah, uh, listen. 2279 01:55:12,720 --> 01:55:14,840 Speaker 1: I think the Bills of the should be the favorite team. 2280 01:55:14,960 --> 01:55:16,880 Speaker 1: They are the favorite team. I think they have the 2281 01:55:17,080 --> 01:55:22,200 Speaker 1: better talent, definitely on offense um, but things happen in 2282 01:55:22,240 --> 01:55:26,200 Speaker 1: the NFL, and it's gonna happen tomorrow night, Patriots twenty seven, 2283 01:55:26,400 --> 01:55:31,040 Speaker 1: twenty four. It's gonna be an instant classic. But the 2284 01:55:31,120 --> 01:55:34,720 Speaker 1: Patriots come out and and they win this game. Uh, 2285 01:55:34,880 --> 01:55:37,080 Speaker 1: they do it for the fans, you know in the 2286 01:55:38,480 --> 01:55:41,360 Speaker 1: and red asses in full effect for this one. He's 2287 01:55:41,480 --> 01:55:44,040 Speaker 1: running around the sideline. He's gonna be in full effect. 2288 01:55:44,120 --> 01:55:46,600 Speaker 1: The red jersey gives the red ass. I would like 2289 01:55:46,680 --> 01:55:52,680 Speaker 1: to have heard Bills Rara speech about the punting thing. Right, 2290 01:55:53,280 --> 01:55:55,960 Speaker 1: you couldn't even force a punt. You gave up eighty 2291 01:55:56,080 --> 01:55:58,960 Speaker 1: points in two games. I can't stand it. Yeah, that 2292 01:55:59,120 --> 01:56:01,160 Speaker 1: that's sort of like I think that you're a defense. 2293 01:56:01,280 --> 01:56:04,360 Speaker 1: You did make them line up and punt formation it 2294 01:56:04,520 --> 01:56:07,080 Speaker 1: was in twenty twenty, but never happened. I mean in 2295 01:56:07,120 --> 01:56:08,960 Speaker 1: you're a defense, Steve, if you did a good job, 2296 01:56:09,400 --> 01:56:13,360 Speaker 1: it's a joke. It's a joke. What it's like. You 2297 01:56:13,400 --> 01:56:15,440 Speaker 1: know when they had the parade route? Right, the who 2298 01:56:15,560 --> 01:56:18,280 Speaker 1: was that the Eagles had the parade route? And he's 2299 01:56:18,440 --> 01:56:21,240 Speaker 1: you know, he's brilliant at it. Um. You know. The 2300 01:56:21,320 --> 01:56:23,000 Speaker 1: other thing I just to add on to that, which 2301 01:56:23,040 --> 01:56:24,680 Speaker 1: since we have a couple of minutes here, you have 2302 01:56:24,800 --> 01:56:26,880 Speaker 1: like ten, which is that you have four I think 2303 01:56:26,920 --> 01:56:28,960 Speaker 1: there's I think as much as there's motive, as there's 2304 01:56:29,000 --> 01:56:31,160 Speaker 1: motivation coming off the last year's gaming against Bill. I 2305 01:56:31,160 --> 01:56:33,040 Speaker 1: think there's motivation coming off that Vikings game. I think 2306 01:56:33,040 --> 01:56:36,000 Speaker 1: the miss referee calls. They feel like they got jobbed 2307 01:56:36,000 --> 01:56:37,880 Speaker 1: a little bit in that game. And you know, I 2308 01:56:38,000 --> 01:56:39,760 Speaker 1: think that feeds into it too. They've heard a lot 2309 01:56:39,800 --> 01:56:41,880 Speaker 1: about the Hunter Henry touchdown and all that. I mean, 2310 01:56:42,040 --> 01:56:44,120 Speaker 1: I think all of it. They feel agitated. It's a 2311 01:56:44,640 --> 01:56:45,960 Speaker 1: I don't want to say must win kind of a 2312 01:56:46,040 --> 01:56:48,520 Speaker 1: must win if you had to say, but it lines up, 2313 01:56:48,520 --> 01:56:50,320 Speaker 1: they'll play. They'll play hard. If you oh, I think 2314 01:56:50,360 --> 01:56:52,120 Speaker 1: they'll play hard. I think they always play hard. I 2315 01:56:52,200 --> 01:56:54,240 Speaker 1: think they quit in the second half of the playoff game. 2316 01:56:54,280 --> 01:56:56,280 Speaker 1: I think Evan alluded to that earlier. You know, it's 2317 01:56:56,320 --> 01:56:58,040 Speaker 1: not even worth talking about, but I think for the 2318 01:56:58,080 --> 01:57:00,240 Speaker 1: most I don't find a lot of example of the 2319 01:57:00,320 --> 01:57:03,240 Speaker 1: team as a whole quitting. I think they'll play hard 2320 01:57:03,400 --> 01:57:07,920 Speaker 1: Thursday night. If you had to say the Patriots win 2321 01:57:08,040 --> 01:57:13,360 Speaker 1: this game, would you say after the game Patriots won 2322 01:57:13,440 --> 01:57:16,840 Speaker 1: it or the Bills lost. Bills lost. Because it's gonna 2323 01:57:16,880 --> 01:57:19,280 Speaker 1: it's gonna have to play into just some Josh Allen, Oh, yeah, 2324 01:57:19,320 --> 01:57:22,640 Speaker 1: you go. Just because you can envision a scenario that 2325 01:57:22,720 --> 01:57:25,200 Speaker 1: the Bills play reasonably well and lose, You're gonna need luck, 2326 01:57:25,440 --> 01:57:28,120 Speaker 1: You're gonna need some bouncing the balls bouncing your way, 2327 01:57:28,320 --> 01:57:30,160 Speaker 1: or you're gonna need to see a totally different Patriots 2328 01:57:30,160 --> 01:57:31,920 Speaker 1: team than what we've been watching for the last four months. 2329 01:57:32,040 --> 01:57:34,920 Speaker 1: Is that realistic? I mean, come on, I mean like 2330 01:57:35,040 --> 01:57:36,960 Speaker 1: I want that to happen. And just so you know, 2331 01:57:37,040 --> 01:57:39,880 Speaker 1: like if the Patriots came out and they like executed 2332 01:57:39,920 --> 01:57:42,280 Speaker 1: really well offensively, I wouldn't say, well, the Bills played 2333 01:57:42,320 --> 01:57:44,880 Speaker 1: bad on defense, Like I wouldn't say that that's why 2334 01:57:44,920 --> 01:57:47,040 Speaker 1: you won because the Bills played bad on defense. I'm 2335 01:57:47,080 --> 01:57:51,440 Speaker 1: talking about like you know the Bills you know did 2336 01:57:51,520 --> 01:57:54,000 Speaker 1: with the Patriots at the other day. You know, third down, 2337 01:57:54,040 --> 01:57:56,560 Speaker 1: they got to stop up face mask running to the kicker, 2338 01:57:56,640 --> 01:57:59,720 Speaker 1: give them an extra possession, you know, three turnovers on 2339 01:57:59,840 --> 01:58:02,680 Speaker 1: off fans. That's what I mean by pointy bad. All right, 2340 01:58:02,760 --> 01:58:05,240 Speaker 1: that's gonna do it for the show. I see the callers, 2341 01:58:05,360 --> 01:58:08,600 Speaker 1: stay tuned, callers, hang on for catch twenty two.
