Speaker 2: can't wait.
Speaker 1: Live from our studios inside you Lette Stadium.
Speaker 2: Here's Hearty slipping and sliding. He was like a cat
Speaker 2: popular fang Well. A disappointing result tonight as Canton falls
Speaker 2: to Maine two to one, And uh yeah, that's it.
Speaker 2: That's theh you just blew it Wi DV. I was deep,
Speaker 2: I was devarring it. I was are you really?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 2: I did? I did. I was gonna watch it with
Speaker 2: my boy. I think that's kind of cool. Yeah, I
Speaker 2: tell you what, it was a very exciting sequence for
Speaker 2: everybody who had access to a television because you got
Speaker 2: to watch Malie Cunningham put together like something resembling an
Speaker 2: offensive drive with the Patriots.
Speaker 3: Told you that be some fun if he played in
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter.
Speaker 2: Well you called it, Paul, right when they called it
Speaker 2: was coming down to the wire. I don't know somebody
Speaker 2: called it.
Speaker 3: But I asked a simple question towards the end of
Speaker 3: the show. Who scores the Patriots first touchdown tonight? And
Speaker 3: what did Hardy say?
Speaker 2: Malik cunning Wow, should have been Trey Nixon. That was you, guy,
Speaker 2: not me, Hey guy, it's me guy. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, Patriots, Unfortunately, that's the only thing of any consequence
Speaker 3: they did offensively. Listen, we can sit here and we
Speaker 3: can talk for two hours like the sky is falling.
Speaker 3: I'm not personally gonna do that.
Speaker 2: No, it's not.
Speaker 3: The offense was as bad as you can get. I mean,
Speaker 3: they had eighty eight yards and four first downs with
Speaker 3: five minutes left in the game.
Speaker 2: And truth be told, if the.
Speaker 3: Guy doesn't rip off Malie Cunningham's face mask, they probably
Speaker 3: don't score on that drive.
Speaker 2: But I don't care. I don't care. The offensive line.
Speaker 3: Sometimes when we talk about concerns, they get illuminated when
Speaker 3: the games actually get played. That's what we're talking about.
Speaker 3: That's why I'm so concerned about having to rely on
Speaker 3: Trent Brown. Yeah, because Trent Brown is an important guy.
Speaker 3: If he doesn't play, some of the guys that were
Speaker 3: on the field tonight will.
Speaker 2: Have to play. Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 3: Like that's a concern for me. Well, that offensive line
Speaker 3: had no answers for a bunch of backups even in
Speaker 3: the second half.
Speaker 5: Well, I still think Mafi and Connor mc dermot could
Speaker 5: end up playing, So a couple of them might end.
Speaker 2: Up That's what I'm saying. So these guys might have
Speaker 2: to play. Yeah, are we aware? This is the biggest
Speaker 2: development I think also of the night that Pat McAfee
Speaker 2: sent out a tweet. Oh no, it says thank you
Speaker 2: for your service tonight, Paul, and the screenshot of Paul
Speaker 2: Perillo that accent was wicked, glorious all night.
Speaker 6: Wow?
Speaker 2: Are you really? Yes? Wow? This tweet has been viewed
Speaker 2: some seventy thousand times, so going viral. Uh? Is my
Speaker 2: accent that bad? Tiny? A little bit? It's I just
Speaker 2: I think for people outside of the region, you probably
Speaker 2: do sound a little bit like something out of Central Casting.
Speaker 5: Okay, so but real, like the real Boston accent, not
Speaker 5: like the fake ones. Wow, yes, why while famous, you're
Speaker 5: having a moment, right, I just my face read.
Speaker 3: I feel like I don't normally get we're else hold
Speaker 3: it up.
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't get, like really twenty four minutes ago. I
Speaker 3: don't really get involved, like it doesn't really bug me
Speaker 3: any of that stuff. That just kind of like took
Speaker 3: me for a loop.
Speaker 2: I think you can go and pack Matfe McAfee show
Speaker 2: at some point. ESPN, Wow, you know how long would
Speaker 2: you keep in this from me? Hardy? You just it
Speaker 2: just now popped up And it was brought to my
Speaker 2: attention by Krizzle on Twitter that said, please discuss this
Speaker 2: on the postgame. Thank you so thank you, Chris.
Speaker 7: So.
Speaker 3: I know that you can tell him from Boston when
Speaker 3: I speak, but I don't really think of myself as
Speaker 3: having a really thick Boston accent anymore. I had it
Speaker 3: when I was growing up. It got beat out of
Speaker 3: me when I went to bu I don't.
Speaker 2: Think you do. I don't think it got beat out.
Speaker 3: Oh no, no, Hardy, Like I used to like really
Speaker 3: be a hottie, Like I would say hotty, oh wow,
Speaker 3: like when I was growing up.
Speaker 2: Well, whenever you move well, you didn't move. This was
Speaker 2: just to BEU. I just was tired of getting made
Speaker 2: fun of every day. When I moved to New Mexico
Speaker 2: from Michigan, I had to lose my Michigan accent because
Speaker 2: people were making fun of me. So, yeah, you didn't
Speaker 2: lose it. I'm just kidding. I wouldn't know Michigan. Youoper no,
Speaker 2: no as a troll. That's the lower twenty to nine
Speaker 2: Texans win the game tonight. But as we discussed in
Speaker 2: the pregame, it's not a huge concern as to who
Speaker 2: wins or loses. It's about getting some more work in.
Speaker 2: And the Patriots need a lot of work. I mean,
Speaker 2: before we get to the good, the bad and me injured,
Speaker 2: there's a lot of work to be done on offense.
Speaker 2: I think there's a lot of work to be done
Speaker 2: on defense. There's a lot of work to be done.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I think the offensive line is certainly
Speaker 5: the concern right now.
Speaker 2: And you know it's just plus you had Cody Russi
Speaker 2: go down. You know, I'm not sure what that's gonna be.
Speaker 2: That's pretty injured. Yeah, sorry, but they're just you know,
Speaker 2: they're already scraping the barrel with some of the depths.
Speaker 2: So it's disappointing. I mean's definitely disappointing.
Speaker 5: I don't want to get too much of an ran
Speaker 5: here before we get into the good, the bad, and
Speaker 5: the injured, but I just think it was such a need,
Speaker 5: I think in this off season, going into the offseason
Speaker 5: and to just see it kind of filled with a
Speaker 5: couple of veterans and you know, not really prioritized in
Speaker 5: the draft, at least at the tackle spots. You know,
Speaker 5: I thought City, So I have to go back and
Speaker 5: look at how bad he was. But you know, they
Speaker 5: just they had problems all night and I don't think
Speaker 5: Zappy ever really got comfortable. And that's kind of what
Speaker 5: it's looked like for you know, the majority of training camp.
Speaker 5: There have been moments where they've they've clicked, but for
Speaker 5: a lot of it, that's kind of what it's like.
Speaker 2: Chaos around the quarterback.
Speaker 5: And he can't find anybody open and then socker eats it.
Speaker 2: Do you want to get started? Yeah, let's get started. Now.
Speaker 5: It's time for the good, pretty goody, pretty good.
Speaker 6: The bad.
Speaker 2: And the injured.
Speaker 3: Ah ah, you are right, guy.
Speaker 2: Good, the bad and the injured brought to you by
Speaker 2: the good players, the bad players, and the injured players
Speaker 2: are monitors now working in the studio, which leads me
Speaker 2: to believe that Marine Matt somehow secured the proper adapter
Speaker 2: during the game, or he had it all along and
Speaker 2: it was just kind of a you drop the ball
Speaker 2: pre game. Chris Judge brought me the right piece. That's
Speaker 2: why his earbud was in the studio.
Speaker 5: Okay, all right, for yourself, it's right there.
Speaker 2: Okay, Hey, I just I want to I want to
Speaker 2: know whether to thank you or scold you. So it
Speaker 2: sounds like I need to thank Chris. Okay, all right, good,
Speaker 2: all right, good, Uh there are some good now we
Speaker 2: may have to peace mail them. We may have to
Speaker 2: we may have to do uh some specifics. There we go.
Speaker 2: By the way, if you're if you're watching us right now,
Speaker 2: you will see the tweet from the Pat McAfee show
Speaker 2: that says, thanks for your service tonight, Paul. That accent
Speaker 2: was wicked glorious all night, and I you know, I
Speaker 2: don't hear it anymore, but it must be. There had
Speaker 2: to have been entertaining, I guess, yeah, yeah, Well, what
Speaker 2: are you gonna do? Be famous?
Speaker 3: I'm a little Yeah, I'm a little thrown off. I'm
Speaker 3: not gonna lie. It's rare for me because you know,
Speaker 3: I have something to say about pretty much everything.
Speaker 5: But you gotta send this to your boys. I think
Speaker 5: I assume they listen to.
Speaker 3: Those are the kind of screenshots that my sister in
Speaker 3: law likes to send it, like when i'm and she
Speaker 3: sends it like a screenshot when I'm doing that. Could
Speaker 3: you find one where I'm just smiling and I know listen.
Speaker 2: Is that your brother's wife or your wife's sister, my
Speaker 2: wife's sister.
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 8: That tracks.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the phrase for twenty twenty three.
Speaker 3: So I was told it's that checks out too. They're
Speaker 3: like kind of like synonymous that tracks that checks out.
Speaker 3: I got it that checks out from one of Will's
Speaker 3: friends during the course of the game when I said.
Speaker 2: Something, yeah, I'm starting they're at the age now where
Speaker 2: I'm starting to pick up on my daughter's sayings. And
Speaker 2: one of the best ones if you mentioned a mild
Speaker 2: accomplishment that you did. It's like, hey, I actually got
Speaker 2: my work done by four o'clock today. She'll say something
Speaker 2: like woop what yeah, whoop? You know, just hyping you up.
Speaker 5: A little sarcastic, little wise ass.
Speaker 2: Yeah, why suddenly he has to start working blue as usual.
Speaker 2: It's wise ass, that's blue. Yeah. So okay, you know
Speaker 2: I was good to let's go good. Okay, we gotta
Speaker 2: Paul good, You good, Paul. Okay, I'm gonna I'm gonna
Speaker 2: I'm gonna.
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna say, I'm gonna leave deuces because he
Speaker 3: also nailed one the way you nailed Malie Cunningham being
Speaker 3: the touchdown. I'm gonna let Deuce have his. I will
Speaker 3: go with Anthony Jennings, I had who I thought was
Speaker 3: extremely active coming off the edge tonight. I wasn't expecting
Speaker 3: to see as many frontline defensive players in the game
Speaker 3: together as they started with and played a good pretty
Speaker 3: much the whole first half.
Speaker 2: Ye quality.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought. I thought Jennings was was very, very quick.
Speaker 3: He looked quicker to me. I don't know if that's
Speaker 3: right or not, but I thought he was a constant problem.
Speaker 3: I know, both offensive lines had tons of backups. I
Speaker 3: think Kenyan Green played like Conno McDermott played for the Pats.
Speaker 3: There were a lot of backups out there. Yeah, but
Speaker 3: I thought, you know, for the most part. Jennings was
Speaker 3: really active and put a lot of pressure on. I
Speaker 3: thought he created the problems for C. J. Stroud that
Speaker 3: he dealt with. I thought that was he crowded Stroud.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Freddy. Really snazzy boss man Fred Kirsch joining
Speaker 2: this now a shadow of his former self MP in
Speaker 2: the studio. Dude, So who do you have on your
Speaker 2: first I think it is Paul hit did.
Speaker 5: I would go with key On White, I have to,
Speaker 5: you know, I thought he has the best player tonight.
Speaker 5: For Yeah, he had a nice uh a nice third
Speaker 5: down stop where it was kind of like, you know,
Speaker 5: stack the guy's shodow and got the tackles.
Speaker 2: Tackled them short. I thought he can run a little. Yeah.
Speaker 5: And then the fumble, you know, I mean it wasn't
Speaker 5: that he caused the fumble, but he was in there
Speaker 5: and he made sure that they couldn't corral the fumble. Uh,
Speaker 5: and then it was recovered by Calvin Munson.
Speaker 2: So I just I thought he looked powerful.
Speaker 5: He wasn't, you know, I wouldn't say he was a
Speaker 5: man among boys, as I said in.
Speaker 6: The pre game.
Speaker 5: Yeah, oh all right, I like that, but I know,
Speaker 5: just like liked what I saw it looked like he
Speaker 5: fit in and look comfortable, and you know, I think
Speaker 5: it was probably a good learning experience for him. But
Speaker 5: I'm excited about about ke On White and Christian Gonzales.
Speaker 3: For them the play that I liked, and I touched
Speaker 3: on this a little bit in the pregame when I
Speaker 3: was hoping you got to see a little bit of
Speaker 3: Stroud trying to get out. There was one of those,
Speaker 3: you know, sort of fake pitches. He's gonna bootleg the
Speaker 3: other way. You're hoping that end crashes down, and he didn't. Yeah,
Speaker 3: he remained disciplined, didn't take the play. But if he's
Speaker 3: not there now Stroud gets outside, he's broken containment. He
Speaker 3: has all day, you know. But because he was where
Speaker 3: we were supposed to be, the play ends up going nowhere.
Speaker 3: I thought, Yeah, I thought he played really well. You
Speaker 3: want to chime in with your first good there friend.
Speaker 6: Well, you guys already mentioned Keon White.
Speaker 2: Anthony Jennings was also Yeah.
Speaker 6: I think I think the front seven, you know, the
Speaker 6: starters tonight were flying around. They didn't always make the play.
Speaker 6: There were a lot of slips, but a lot of
Speaker 6: flashing in the backfield, a lot of pressure on Stroud
Speaker 6: Tava had a couple of good plays. I thought. I
Speaker 6: thought they were flying around, they had a lot of energy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so okay, so you want to go, I'm going
Speaker 2: just chronologically while I was still really paying attention before
Speaker 2: the uh Mills too. They can't well, you can't mention
Speaker 2: like nine players. You have to pick one, and you
Speaker 2: have to be hyper focals.
Speaker 6: We look at this preseason and he's already getting on me.
Speaker 2: We'll give them Mills. We got millsy before I started
Speaker 2: watching Canton, Maine. You know, in the little league game,
Speaker 2: which was the hell of a game, the halftime you mean,
Speaker 2: uh Daniel Equality, Yeah, early on really showed some some
Speaker 2: nice moves. He had the sack early on, but I
Speaker 2: think for a fifteen yard loss, Like, okay, what is it?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 2: No, no, I'm I'm to go ahead. No, I'm not.
Speaker 5: I'm not against what you're saying at all. Right, Okay, continue,
Speaker 5: I apologize if my face threw you off.
Speaker 2: You know, the Mills interception, I mean it was right
Speaker 2: at him.
Speaker 6: No, but I thought the Mills play in the backfield.
Speaker 2: Yes, was yes, the play worthy of mention. But I
Speaker 2: thought Equality, you know, flashed early. Yeah, I just I
Speaker 2: was gonna ask, what do you guys think of that penalty?
Speaker 2: Like it seemed like he got him on the hand
Speaker 2: of his hand.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was really really ticky tap.
Speaker 2: But there was one two days later that should have
Speaker 2: been called, you know, and they didn't. So on Keon White.
Speaker 2: Yes see, I thought that was a good hit. Well,
Speaker 2: I thought they were. I thought they were both decent.
Speaker 2: But it's like, see it from that angle right there.
Speaker 2: They we just showed the replay. It's I think it's
Speaker 2: a tiki tak call. I'd like to do it. See
Speaker 2: right there, he hit him in the.
Speaker 3: Face, and I'd like to see that one stay in
Speaker 3: the pocket.
Speaker 5: It's tough, you know, It's like you jumping through the
Speaker 5: air and then pull your hand insteade Like.
Speaker 2: I don't think he I don't think he targeted the face.
Speaker 3: And where he hits him in the head, it's below
Speaker 3: the shoulders, you know, because he's going down. It's not
Speaker 3: like he had his hand up and that's what's gonna
Speaker 3: happen when you're up there.
Speaker 2: But I get it. I know what they're trying to do.
Speaker 2: Let's do some more goods, Paul, who else.
Speaker 3: You got, I'm gonna go with my guy that I
Speaker 3: highlighted before the game, and it wasn't often, but the
Speaker 3: catch that Taekwon Thornton made is exactly what I'm talking about.
Speaker 3: Oh you know good, It's the only offensive play they
Speaker 3: made the entire sixty minutes.
Speaker 6: Yep.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: They had eighty eight yards and four first downs with
Speaker 3: five minutes left from the game. Twenty seven of them
Speaker 3: came on that one play. And this is a veteran
Speaker 3: cornerback and Steven Nelson that he beats in Jalen Petrie
Speaker 3: I think his second year safety out of Baylor.
Speaker 2: Mike.
Speaker 3: Remember, we did a lot of draft research on him.
Speaker 3: Good young player, So he sits in that little area.
Speaker 3: And by the way, this is a tremendous throw by
Speaker 3: Bailey z Appy. Yeah, that's a really, really good throw.
Speaker 3: And I thought Tho Wharton did a great job getting
Speaker 3: off the line right there. It's one play. Okay, I
Speaker 3: don't want to get too lost, but that's the kind
Speaker 3: of stuff that he needs to.
Speaker 6: By the way, good job with our replay. Who's who's
Speaker 6: running that tonight? Good job, Chris Judge.
Speaker 3: They are incredibly good at getting the plays that we're
Speaker 3: talking about.
Speaker 2: I'm not just saying that, no that and not to
Speaker 2: you know, throw Chris off or anything. But I would
Speaker 2: say that pass as good as the one that was
Speaker 2: dropped in the back right corner of the north end zone.
Speaker 2: Cunningham through it.
Speaker 6: Nixon he mislign.
Speaker 2: What a pass that was? Yeah, but that one obviously
Speaker 2: was a receptions, so that one goes down as being better.
Speaker 5: There you go, So you guys got I don't want
Speaker 5: to steal Hardies.
Speaker 2: I think I got one. I think I got one
Speaker 2: of Hardy's too, but I'll let it is forty four.
Speaker 2: I went like this, No I didn't. I didn't even
Speaker 2: have him. I didn't have him down. So you can no,
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 5: I mean, we're at this point you're trying to find
Speaker 5: just an individual plays. But I think when you're Nick
Speaker 5: Folk and you get an opportunity in the preseason game
Speaker 5: to kick a forty four yard field goal.
Speaker 6: Okay, I mean Barringer's first punt was a good one,
Speaker 6: had time on the ten.
Speaker 2: So Barringer is my last good that I wrote down
Speaker 2: and up and down.
Speaker 3: I thought his second one, he had one really bad
Speaker 3: punt that rolled about though, yes.
Speaker 2: I did it did what did you get? I lost
Speaker 2: my train of thought. Go ahead, sorry, talk about talking
Speaker 2: about yourselves? Any other goods for you? Friend? Now you
Speaker 2: can do that shotgun approach if you want to, because
Speaker 2: we're kind of at the end of him. Yeah, oh,
Speaker 2: I remember what I was gonna say. Oh I got one.
Speaker 6: I mean that's Surpris's pretty much pretty can't look there's
Speaker 6: nobody in the offensive line and not right now.
Speaker 2: I don't know. They've just been rotating so much.
Speaker 5: I wouldn't really have an expectation for who was gonna
Speaker 5: go or not, you know.
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, you Fred?
Speaker 3: What's that surprise that Folk attempted that field goal and
Speaker 3: not Ryland?
Speaker 6: Yeah, a little bit. Yeah, we know what he can
Speaker 6: do from forty four.
Speaker 3: So I'll give you one of those uh probably not
Speaker 3: worth anything, you know, aproposts of nothing, as they as
Speaker 3: they like to joke around. The opening kickoff by Ryland
Speaker 3: clearly by design, right, that was a that was a billism.
Speaker 3: We're gonna try. We're gonna try this, ye see what happens. Yeah,
Speaker 3: we're not just going to give him the twenty five yards.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna try and pick they don't let us kick
Speaker 3: it high.
Speaker 2: This is what we're gonna do and it didn't work
Speaker 2: and rolled into the end. So he's watching the special teams.
Speaker 2: I mean, but don't you think that that was by no? Yeah, yeah, no,
Speaker 2: I'm cheating. Yea, you have one more. I was just gonna,
Speaker 2: I was just gonna highlight. I thought.
Speaker 3: I thought Isaiah Bolton had a pretty nice kick with turn. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I had him for return and that was a really
Speaker 3: good kick return.
Speaker 2: Oh and I mean he was.
Speaker 6: Able to take it on the run. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 6: It wasn't the greatest kick, you know, but you.
Speaker 2: Know, but he got out to the So what he does,
Speaker 2: it's what he does. I mean, it's I think if
Speaker 2: he can, you know, highlight that he's pretty good at it,
Speaker 2: you know. Okay, all right, let's move on to the bads.
Speaker 3: I would just add, you know, like the dude said
Speaker 3: a couple of individual players, obviously Malie Cunningham, I think
Speaker 3: was just really fun in that last drive, mostly mostly
Speaker 3: quarterback draws in scrambles, but I don't care. It was
Speaker 3: fun and I like fun, unlike you guys who are
Speaker 3: anti fun.
Speaker 2: I like fun. I like watching the ball go down
Speaker 2: the field. That was fun and I.
Speaker 3: Got one for you, and I promised myself, I wouldn't
Speaker 3: do this because I'm afraid of losing my job. But
Speaker 3: a young linebacker out of Navy name Diego for Go
Speaker 3: was incredibly active in this game. Now he did something
Speaker 3: bad too, but he was incredibly active when he was
Speaker 3: in there.
Speaker 2: In the second jump the podcast, yeah yeah, he gave
Speaker 2: them new life.
Speaker 6: But then he immediately made a good place.
Speaker 2: He made some good plays on defense. I can't put
Speaker 2: him on the good list jumping off sign on this.
Speaker 2: I'm just trying to listen. There wasn't wasn't. That's a
Speaker 2: good one, though, I he didn't.
Speaker 5: It was one of those I didn't really see him
Speaker 5: during that second half. I mean, I'm saying I disagree
Speaker 5: with you. I just it wasn't one that.
Speaker 3: You're part of the broadcast by some of the nuanced
Speaker 3: and another.
Speaker 6: Guy who was active, you know, around the same time
Speaker 6: forges out there was Farms. He made some.
Speaker 2: Absolutely Farms was heavily involved. I agree with you.
Speaker 3: All right, Well, this is very scary because Fred has
Speaker 3: said like three things that I wholeheartedly agree with that
Speaker 3: breaks the season record.
Speaker 6: Right there you're at We're probably about to get into
Speaker 6: an argument.
Speaker 2: But anyway, well, I mean, I don't know what we're
Speaker 2: going to argue about when it comes to the bad list. Now,
Speaker 2: I'm glad you brought up Malie Cunningham for the good
Speaker 2: list because it was good to have something fun out there.
Speaker 2: And let's face it, you know, he can absolutely move
Speaker 2: and that throw that was not caught not his fault
Speaker 2: that it wasn't caught. Uh, that was fantastic. That was
Speaker 2: That was really the only spark that they showed. Now.
Speaker 2: I don't, in any way, shape or form, expect this
Speaker 2: to be something we see regular season from the Patriots,
Speaker 2: but it was nice to have something to watch tonight
Speaker 2: and get excited about.
Speaker 6: Listen, and people were excited. Yes, you know, I always
Speaker 6: come down here telling you what people were saying on
Speaker 6: the blog, and you know they were ready to yell
Speaker 6: at me because you know, but I didn't pooh pooh them.
Speaker 6: I let them have their fun with Malie Cunningham. But
Speaker 6: they're like, he's our number two, get him in the
Speaker 6: quarterback room. You got to keep this kid, Why not?
Speaker 9: You know.
Speaker 6: That's what they're saying.
Speaker 2: All right, let's move on to the bads. You want
Speaker 2: to go first, Duce sure, Connor McDermott.
Speaker 5: I mean, I haven't really remember seeing him play a
Speaker 5: lot of left tackle, but when we have seen him
Speaker 5: an uneat tackle position, he just he struggles with speed.
Speaker 5: He doesn't have great feet, and I think he was
Speaker 5: a little bit exposed. Just you know, I'm sure you
Speaker 5: could go right down the offense of line tonight and
Speaker 5: maybe point somebody out.
Speaker 2: Who specifically did you pick Connor mc.
Speaker 5: I had, I had, I had, I had two different,
Speaker 5: uh two different x's on him.
Speaker 6: So yeah, I mean you could just go down the line.
Speaker 3: I mean, I thought the line was bad, just flat
Speaker 3: out bad.
Speaker 2: Everybody.
Speaker 6: You know, here's what James Ferentz two flats. What happens
Speaker 6: with him is he's fine when he's centered, but he
Speaker 6: moves to guard and he just can't just a flag.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, forget about past protection. When they got
Speaker 2: to the second half, couldn't run the ball. They were
Speaker 2: just getting blown up on everything. First and at least
Speaker 2: in the first half, they were just getting pushed. Then
Speaker 2: they started getting blown up on run blocking. Even dare
Speaker 2: I say it, love him, mean it, he's a leader.
Speaker 2: David Andrews was getting you know, worked, and it was
Speaker 2: just no.
Speaker 6: Andrew Andrews.
Speaker 2: Excuse me, he's not a leader and no, yeah, David,
Speaker 2: But when you're so when you're seeing guys get through
Speaker 2: on the middle and just blow everything up before it
Speaker 2: has a chance to end, it's like, I get it.
Speaker 2: You know a gap guy. You know guys who were
Speaker 2: shooting up there and they're trying to make the team.
Speaker 2: They're absolutely gonna you know, they're going to show more
Speaker 2: than second string or third string offensive lineman. I get
Speaker 2: the disparity there and how it's kind of easier if
Speaker 2: you're trying to make a make the team for the
Speaker 2: Texans by by showing up that way. But it was
Speaker 2: this is like the tackle for lost highlights.
Speaker 3: It's unbelievable and the shut Like Kevin Harris had eight
Speaker 3: carries for ten yards with a long of seven right,
Speaker 3: and I was.
Speaker 5: Going to point out that seven jumped out to me.
Speaker 5: I think it was on the maybe the last drive.
Speaker 5: I think it was the first drivers second half where
Speaker 5: I was like.
Speaker 2: Whoa, there's a little bit room. But there was no
Speaker 2: defensive lineman in the backfield that are surprised to be there.
Speaker 2: They don't even know what to do. It's like I
Speaker 2: got back here, so bisly they can't even they can't
Speaker 2: even five.
Speaker 3: And out of I'm no expert on you know, frontline
Speaker 3: stunts or anything, but this just looked to me like
Speaker 3: guys up front just beating blocks. Oh yeah, it didn't
Speaker 3: seem to me like they were Remember the Giants last year,
Speaker 3: Remember Dable was very off in the runt. Yeah, I
Speaker 3: didn't see a lot of that time from Houston. So yeah,
Speaker 3: six for twenty one for Pierre Strong, eight for ten
Speaker 3: for Kevin Harris, uh and four for four for JJ Taylor.
Speaker 3: So I used just not nothing, nothing another and the
Speaker 3: pass protection was got off.
Speaker 6: And I hesitate to call this a bad but Christian
Speaker 6: gonzales I got a lesson.
Speaker 3: I don't think I wouldn't have the sideline first, Like, yeah,
Speaker 3: hesitate on that, friend.
Speaker 6: You need to be the guy that makes the the contact,
Speaker 6: not wait for the contact to come for you to you.
Speaker 6: And he found out what happens heft around and found
Speaker 6: out in the NFL. You know, he found out. I like,
Speaker 6: hopefully he's not gonna make that mistake.
Speaker 2: Again, like right away. Like yeah, first of all, the game,
Speaker 2: like you wonder when it's gonna like to get your
Speaker 2: first you know, real content. I don't think he liked it.
Speaker 3: So I'll say I'll say this, like, okay, so that
Speaker 3: was a welcome to the NFL. That's the cliche. That
Speaker 3: was his welcome to the NFL moment. I agree with you.
Speaker 3: It's a bad look. A couple of things. One not
Speaker 3: related to that. I was more concerned about how open
Speaker 3: the guys that he was covering were and not like
Speaker 3: that play looked like a little bit of his zone.
Speaker 3: But the play he's trailing across, he ends up knocking
Speaker 3: the ball out. On the play, you know good, you
Speaker 3: know good fight through the play, But that's not what
Speaker 3: I'm looking for. Hoping the guy the ball after.
Speaker 6: I didn't think that was I catch, by the way,
Speaker 6: I think in the regular season you want to challenge that.
Speaker 3: It was definitely I showed it like even I'm sorry.
Speaker 6: I know he took three steps, but I didn't think
Speaker 6: he had.
Speaker 3: Oh, I'd be willing to look at it again if
Speaker 3: that's what you.
Speaker 6: Thought I got three steps.
Speaker 3: No, I thought he had the ball easy and was
Speaker 3: running with it and then it just got knocked out
Speaker 3: of bounce. But I didn't I didn't think his coverage
Speaker 3: was real tight. I didn't think Jack Jones's coverage. Uh,
Speaker 3: Tank Dell ran right by Jack Jones on that deep
Speaker 3: bowl that I think Mills at the time Milsey overthrew
Speaker 3: him a little bit. So yeah, I didn't think that
Speaker 3: the secondary. I don't think that you're wrong for putting
Speaker 3: that on Freddie because I don't think that that group
Speaker 3: was great and those Again, I'm not talking about Rodney Randall.
Speaker 3: I'm talking about Jack Jones and Christian Gonzales, guys that
Speaker 3: you know figure to be part.
Speaker 2: Of them presumably are going to be out there and yeah,
Speaker 2: playing in actual games right specific bad, Fred, is there
Speaker 2: something that really sticks out to you and like, oh
Speaker 2: that was that was? By the way, Another good that
Speaker 2: video board is is it's incredibly sharp. It's not inspiring
Speaker 2: ya keep talking about but when you look at it,
Speaker 2: you're like.
Speaker 3: Holy, it's amazing how sharp. I said that to Fred
Speaker 3: and the the in stadium practice, like you can like see.
Speaker 6: Like unfortunately from our vantage, the press spotts, you can't
Speaker 6: see it. We see the bottom half of it.
Speaker 2: From that's all. It doesn't look like this and everybody's
Speaker 2: heads cut off. I can't see anything. It's it's unbelievably clear.
Speaker 2: And yes, Oh this is this is actually worth the hype.
Speaker 2: I think it's you can see the dimples on the
Speaker 2: football is four k? You think it's you think it's
Speaker 2: it's it's high four ten a d P.
Speaker 6: Yeah, nice, it can go four k, but it's it's
Speaker 6: being shown at ten adp. It can it can handle
Speaker 6: four k.
Speaker 2: I don't know how long we're going to keep the
Speaker 2: bit going unless that's real. So it's a bit. So
Speaker 2: I have a bit right that it became real.
Speaker 3: The other part of the Gonzales thing that I think
Speaker 3: is worth discussing that Fred brings up about that hit
Speaker 3: the tackle.
Speaker 2: That's why the Patriots got him. That was well, that
Speaker 2: was part of he slipped.
Speaker 3: He slipped eight or ten spots because it was a
Speaker 3: knock on his physicality. Yeah, so I'm going to chalk
Speaker 3: it up to one play. I've loved him in camp.
Speaker 3: I didn't think he was as good tonight as we've
Speaker 3: seen in the practice field, and I have I'm going
Speaker 3: to be very consistent about this. Sure, I put much
Speaker 3: more stock on the practice field than I did preseason games.
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna I'm gonna continue to do it.
Speaker 6: Do you dare put Bailey Zappie on the bat. I
Speaker 6: don't think it was fair for No, No, it wasn't fair.
Speaker 3: And I don't know what else he should have done.
Speaker 5: I didn't see any like he's got all day. Somebody's open,
Speaker 5: he's not seen like. Can I just say definitely chaos
Speaker 5: or this is what the offense looks like more often
Speaker 5: than not. Like and you know, we're really snarky and
Speaker 5: we make fun.
Speaker 2: Of the stats.
Speaker 3: And this is why we make fun of the snats.
Speaker 3: Like if you weren't there and someone did a you know,
Speaker 3: an update on with Hardy and said, well, Billy Zappie
Speaker 3: was twelve for fourteen in competitive periods today.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what would you have thought? Was he twelve or fourteen?
Speaker 2: Twelve or fourteen?
Speaker 5: That's a great example than Paul. That's a perfect example.
Speaker 5: It's one of my bats.
Speaker 2: Perfect.
Speaker 3: Like I'm finger wagging us the media. There was if
Speaker 3: someone told you, oh, the quarterback was twelve or fourteen
Speaker 3: at practice today in the competitive portions, lights out? Doesn't
Speaker 3: that tell you anything about what you saw from Bailey's
Speaker 3: appy tonight?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 3: In his twenty five snaps, No, there was.
Speaker 2: One play where he ended up throwing the ball away
Speaker 2: where he could have thrown it away four seconds earlier.
Speaker 2: He scrambled around.
Speaker 3: He looked and looked and looked like I got nothing.
Speaker 2: And again this is where it's it's helpful to you know,
Speaker 2: listen to you know, Zoe when he's making the call,
Speaker 2: or Paul when he's on doing the analysis, when he
Speaker 2: when he comes on. Because I don't see the you
Speaker 2: gotta throw it away now, you know, when when Zoe said,
Speaker 2: he's like, get rid of it. And sure enough, there
Speaker 2: was nobody open downfield, nobody had any chance of getting open.
Speaker 2: He scrambles, he rolls right, he ducks background, he comes in.
Speaker 2: He finally he's rolling left and throws it away, which
Speaker 2: all I had thrown it out to the left sideline.
Speaker 2: I guess is maybe a little safer. But you're gonna
Speaker 2: get croaked, and this is nothing. Nothing good is going
Speaker 2: to happen. That's the one. Yeah. And Zee was calling
Speaker 2: him to throw that thing away, you know before he
Speaker 2: ran an extra thirty yards in circles. So I thought
Speaker 2: that was a bad play.
Speaker 6: Yeah, But I mean he's just trying to make something happen.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think.
Speaker 3: I mean, I get what your point is, but I
Speaker 3: looked at it as like he was waiting to try
Speaker 3: to see if something happened. And this is what he does,
Speaker 3: I think more than Mac in training camp too. In practice. Yeah,
Speaker 3: he's not as quick to give up on a play.
Speaker 3: Mack would have run in a trading camp practice, right,
Speaker 3: and he probably would have done the gritty at the
Speaker 3: end of it.
Speaker 2: It's admirable and we're not comparing anybody to Brady. What
Speaker 2: would Brady have done? He would have thrown it away,
Speaker 2: he would first half second, Yeah, he.
Speaker 6: Would thrown it into the ground and yelled at him.
Speaker 3: Probably would have thrown He probably would have thrown a
Speaker 3: seventeen yard dot to someone.
Speaker 2: Works out pretty well, and it used to piss us off.
Speaker 2: It's like because, oh, because he sees so he.
Speaker 6: Could afford to waste a play.
Speaker 2: That's true, That's true.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean offensively, there just wasn't really anything to
Speaker 3: build on tonight, I thought, you know, aside from the play.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and you can't judge the team like people, Is this.
Speaker 2: The way our offense is gonna look?
Speaker 6: No, you're not even looking at our offense. All you
Speaker 6: can do tonight is make individual you know, evaluations. You
Speaker 6: can't do team evaluations.
Speaker 5: I do think the offensive line has been an issue
Speaker 5: is an issue that is that is real?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, I you know, and you think about
Speaker 2: what it's going to mean when you have your starting
Speaker 2: tight ends and how much blocking are they going to
Speaker 2: be able to to provide? Probably not much so, but
Speaker 2: they're gonna be able to provide more of a of
Speaker 2: a downfield option for presumably Mac to Sifine, you know,
Speaker 2: to think so.
Speaker 6: Unfortunately, we might not even get a chance to see
Speaker 6: that in the preseason. We won't know until the Eagles game.
Speaker 6: But what you getting excited though when you looked at
Speaker 6: Keyon White early and you thought, what's that going to
Speaker 6: look like when Barber's out there and Judan's out there
Speaker 6: and every you know, like I was, I was getting
Speaker 6: excited looking at that.
Speaker 3: My first disagreement for the same reason. I'm not overly
Speaker 3: concerned about the offense. I'm not excited about thinking that way,
Speaker 3: Like I need to see Keyon White first of all,
Speaker 3: being on the field with those guys. Yeah, and then
Speaker 3: I'll get excited about it if he's if he's doing
Speaker 3: some of those things. Like but I'm with Fred on
Speaker 3: this play on the pitch where the guy dropped the ball.
Speaker 3: He was completely unblocked, like no one touched, no one
Speaker 3: tried to block him because it was a pitch to
Speaker 3: the opposite side. He's a free guy, and he just
Speaker 3: ran in and tried to recover the fumble.
Speaker 2: Maybe likesive.
Speaker 3: Listen, he's explosive well, and they were moving him around
Speaker 3: in two ninety pounds. He's covering a punt. I mean,
Speaker 3: that's that's a I made that comment during the broadcast.
Speaker 2: I'm sure Fred heard it because I know you listen, right, No,
Speaker 2: did you not?
Speaker 6: I listened a little bit.
Speaker 2: Did you not listen to me tonight on the Good Show?
Speaker 2: I still agree with Fred though, in terms of things
Speaker 2: to look forward to and be excited about. There's a
Speaker 2: much better chance of seeing Keon White out there with
Speaker 2: the other guys and making meaningful contributions than, say, what
Speaker 2: was the other thing we got excited about tonight, Malie Cunningham,
Speaker 2: I hope you enjoyed it.
Speaker 3: I'm not going to see what I'm saying is I'm
Speaker 3: not gonna get too down on the you know, at
Speaker 3: Christian Gonzalez. I don't think any of us thought was
Speaker 3: great tonight. I think he's going to be a part
Speaker 3: of the defense. I'm not going to overreact to an
Speaker 3: individual performance in a preseason game negatively, So I'm gonna
Speaker 3: be I'm gonna be consistent. But he was very at
Speaker 3: a man among boys out there. He was the best
Speaker 3: player on the field for the Patriots to night, without question.
Speaker 2: Okay, surprised. Do you hear you say that? Why I
Speaker 2: said it earlier? Well, because that's what you want to see.
Speaker 3: Okay, But I'm but that doesn't mean I'm excited to
Speaker 3: see him play with Christian Barbour. I don't even know
Speaker 3: if he will play with Dietrich Wise is going to play.
Speaker 6: There's a difference between being excited to see it and
Speaker 6: predicting it's gonna be great. I'm excited to see him play.
Speaker 2: Okay, I can I can live with that.
Speaker 3: I'm agreeing with fred I'm with Freddy tonight.
Speaker 2: I'm with you against more beads.
Speaker 5: Rodney Randall. I think tanked Dell. I think tankd Dell
Speaker 5: caught four of the five passes in Davis Mills. I
Speaker 5: think was five for five on that drive before halftime
Speaker 5: when they went, you know, just went down the field,
Speaker 5: you know.
Speaker 2: But again, it's like, how do you put Roddy Randall
Speaker 2: on the down list.
Speaker 3: It's like I thought Tank Dell was doing the same
Speaker 3: thing for the starters.
Speaker 2: Did he not live up to what you were exacting?
Speaker 10: C J.
Speaker 3: Stroud threw one in the dirt that he like one hopped,
Speaker 3: caught with one hand. He was wide open on He
Speaker 3: had another crosser that I think Mills hit him like
Speaker 3: in the thighs, and then we got up and he
Speaker 3: was going like this to him, like you give me
Speaker 3: that up here and I can catch it and run.
Speaker 2: There was nobody on him.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's good in the middle of the field. There
Speaker 3: was nobody on him. Let me tell you, I don't
Speaker 3: know if it was him or just every like that
Speaker 3: fourteen kid was wide open too.
Speaker 6: Yeah, like let's have the Texas is. None of them
Speaker 6: are great. But you went from Stroud, who's a rookie,
Speaker 6: then you go to Davis Mills. Davis Mills who's a
Speaker 6: veteran and case Keenum has had some.
Speaker 3: Deaf so Case Keenum is almost and I saw Batard
Speaker 3: tweet this during the game, that's almost not fair to
Speaker 3: have a vet and play at the end of the press.
Speaker 3: But Davis Mills is still trying to make his way
Speaker 3: in the league.
Speaker 6: No, but he's had experience.
Speaker 2: Yes, you know, one thing I don't want to you know,
Speaker 2: overlook and be accused of being too soft on the penalty,
Speaker 2: call the off side on the punt and allowing them
Speaker 2: a fresh set of downs when you think back to
Speaker 2: what happened last year with the special teams and their issues.
Speaker 2: This is something that I'm just being honest and consistent
Speaker 2: last week when we're talking about you want to see
Speaker 2: I want to see clean special teams play. They don't
Speaker 2: have to be perfect, but let's not have any screw
Speaker 2: ups to where it, you know, changes the momentum of
Speaker 2: the game. There's one right there on thousand percent with
Speaker 2: you for the reasons you said. Yep, last year, I
Speaker 2: think that's at tonight, not and not jumping all you know,
Speaker 2: all over it was it was for go who was offside? Right?
Speaker 3: And what will happen is the mafia will come at
Speaker 3: you and say, well, what he's going to be out there?
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter, It doesn't it's a symbol matter what
Speaker 3: has been a problem for two years.
Speaker 2: Thank you, thank you. Okay, anything else we need to
Speaker 2: get to other than the injured players. H No, I
Speaker 2: think that pretty much. Yeah, that pretty much covers it,
Speaker 2: all right. Carl Davis went down with a knee early on.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he was on the sideline though at the end,
Speaker 5: kind of talking with Jude on and stuff. It didn't
Speaker 5: it didn't appear to be anything too serious. Soka something
Speaker 5: to watch. And then Cody Russy went off late as well.
Speaker 2: I did not see him later. Okay, I think do
Speaker 2: you know what the rusty injury was?
Speaker 6: They were looking at his knee?
Speaker 3: Oh okay, because he was flat on his stomach and
Speaker 3: I couldn't tell if it was a knee injury.
Speaker 6: Oh wait a minute, and I might be thinking of Davis.
Speaker 3: Davis was left ankle or knee or something like that.
Speaker 3: It looked like he got it got rolled up on.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, that's right. Yeah, yeah, all.
Speaker 2: Right, let's get to some phone calls. Eight five five
Speaker 2: pats five hundred.
Speaker 6: Oh boy, what.
Speaker 2: Eldred has been on hold since the start here. I
Speaker 2: don't know. I know something's wrong with Fred. Eldred. Check
Speaker 2: in on Fred before we do anything else. Good to
Speaker 2: hear from you. What's going on, buddy?
Speaker 4: How you doing good here? From all y'all too. Yeah,
Speaker 4: it was entertaining, but worse. But my question is due.
Speaker 11: Uh, I know you made the guy is gonna be starting,
Speaker 11: but his brown is hurt.
Speaker 4: And when you don't come back, do you think there's
Speaker 4: a chance to try to find somebody. Yes, off a line,
Speaker 4: because that's off of the line. Was offensive to watch?
Speaker 6: Yeah, Eldred. If if those guys, if they know those
Speaker 6: guys are going to be out for any period of time,
Speaker 6: they have to look for some help. They have to.
Speaker 2: I agree what they do.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and uh, Fred, I'm gonna be like, be like
Speaker 4: one of them guys is on your search words.
Speaker 6: Okay, keep that, Keep Malik at quarterback, Keep Malik, give.
Speaker 3: Him a quarterback, keep him at quarterback.
Speaker 6: Get to wide receive, put him in the QB room?
Speaker 2: Why not?
Speaker 6: All right?
Speaker 2: Appreciate We were talking about offensive line acquisitions. We had
Speaker 2: a couple of calls in the sports up earlier this week.
Speaker 2: Why don't you go out and get you know, a
Speaker 2: serviceable offensive line and someone versatil can play a couple
Speaker 2: of spots. You know, why did they Why didn't they
Speaker 2: do that?
Speaker 3: I get you, let me go, let me go and
Speaker 3: pick one off the versatile offensive line treat.
Speaker 2: I mean, and you know, just to be like kind
Speaker 2: about it. I said, okay, a they would if they could,
Speaker 2: but be every single team in the league would want that,
Speaker 2: or probably more depth at corner. Those are the two
Speaker 2: things that every team in the league is looking for
Speaker 2: and would immediately pounce on. They're not out there. If
Speaker 2: they were, they would get them. They would be why
Speaker 2: don't they bring in an offensive lineman instead of looking
Speaker 2: at aging running backs? Well, here's why they're not available.
Speaker 6: Brian Water. It's gonna come out of that time.
Speaker 2: And I mean, that's you know, that's kind of the
Speaker 2: hard thing though.
Speaker 5: It's like, you know, even if they pull it together
Speaker 5: this year, Trent Brown's a free agent, Riley Reefs near
Speaker 5: the end, Connor McDermott's a free agent, Like you know,
Speaker 5: it's not even like they really have the continuity right now.
Speaker 5: So hopefully they can find something and keep it healthy.
Speaker 5: But right now it seems like we don't really know
Speaker 5: what the top line looks like, and we don't really
Speaker 5: know if they could even keep that top line healthy.
Speaker 5: So I as much as we want to talk about
Speaker 5: the offense, I just think the offensive line getting that settled.
Speaker 5: And I will say, like generally, I feel like offensive
Speaker 5: line play it takes a little time. Like, I think
Speaker 5: that's something that you just have to acknowledge. Generally in September,
Speaker 5: it's not gonna be all in sync and working yet.
Speaker 5: Now there's a certain bar that you have to get to,
Speaker 5: and I don't think they've gotten to that bar yet.
Speaker 2: Tonight was was pretty ugly. Yes, boss, what's the thing
Speaker 2: that boss man Fred has in front of him? Is
Speaker 2: that a pager? What is that thing? Oh, that's I
Speaker 2: think that's Tamara's.
Speaker 3: I think she left it here or is it a WiFi?
Speaker 2: What is it? It's a light? Oh my god. So
Speaker 2: when you're doing yeah, I know, I'm now, I.
Speaker 6: Know, I'm your laptop. You put it on top of
Speaker 6: your laptop when you're doing your thing.
Speaker 2: I'm got lighting. Come on hardy, uh, Nick baby love
Speaker 2: on this first game of the preseason. What's going on there?
Speaker 6: Hey?
Speaker 12: Look at uh?
Speaker 4: I want to I want to shout out to you know, Fred,
Speaker 4: my man, you know for keeping you you got now
Speaker 4: you had the longest running host of the number one show.
Speaker 4: My man, Hearty, you know, I love your brother, Thank you.
Speaker 4: I want to shout out the lady. He's smoking hot tomorrow.
Speaker 4: And of course mister holy Cross, Yeah.
Speaker 2: Ye do so the Holy Cross there he's French.
Speaker 4: Uh you know, of course.
Speaker 6: D trained Original Crusader.
Speaker 4: And Paul, hey, you were fantastic on TV tonight with Socie,
Speaker 4: know what I mean, And you well, I was watching
Speaker 4: front of the recording studio. I've been on a hot
Speaker 4: streak and Paul, I want to you know, I'll text you,
Speaker 4: hopefully you'll give Hardy my number.
Speaker 2: I get right, and.
Speaker 4: You know, you know, you know, I'm a Tom Brady guy,
Speaker 4: so I'm sort of out of the loop. But you guys,
Speaker 4: you know, you know I don't I keep it straight.
Speaker 4: The show is so good and I heard about so
Speaker 4: many players and I tried to get through on the
Speaker 4: pregame but I didn't hear. I just couldn't get through.
Speaker 4: And then the post game. I just think, you know,
Speaker 4: there's a lot of positivity, and you know, uh, you know, uh,
Speaker 4: you know, I'm glad went out on Hard Knocks. Hey,
Speaker 4: look at the good but you know what I mean,
Speaker 4: don't even get me started with all these because you know,
Speaker 4: Paul knows best from my music career with dealing with
Speaker 4: Murray Starr and the bag of a New Edition and
Speaker 4: New Kids on the Block.
Speaker 2: Sure, Hey, Nick, I appreciate the call. Thank you listen.
Speaker 2: Maybe the biggest positive we can take from this preseason
Speaker 2: is the Patriots are not on hard knocks. I mean,
Speaker 2: I mean so far that is. I would put that
Speaker 2: near the top of the list.
Speaker 6: You should have Nick on your music show on the series.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, do you need me to explain to you
Speaker 2: what I do on that show because Fred's music? Yeah,
Speaker 2: well do you talk about music?
Speaker 13: Right?
Speaker 6: So you could have Nick baby Love on. You can
Speaker 6: talk about maur we start new edition.
Speaker 2: The conversation I had with Frevy's asked me, what do
Speaker 2: you do on that music show and play songs? Do
Speaker 2: you talk about him? Sometimes?
Speaker 14: Well?
Speaker 6: Like no, Like some of those shows like the DJ
Speaker 6: gives you some history. Oh you know, and when Karen
Speaker 6: Carpenter was seventeen, she broke out with her brother and
Speaker 6: they you know that type of.
Speaker 2: I always ask Cardi that because he's got those kind
Speaker 2: of things.
Speaker 5: And I'm like, did you know that just off the
Speaker 5: top of your head or is that like a research
Speaker 5: there yet, like a nugget you had to dig up
Speaker 5: or did it just occur to you at the time
Speaker 5: You're like, oh, by the way, I have a little
Speaker 5: trivia about Princess Purple Rain or you know something like that.
Speaker 2: Right, I would say it's probably it's not fifty to fifty.
Speaker 2: It's probably two thirds just stuff that I've retained and
Speaker 2: a third of the stuff all because you're playing a
Speaker 2: lot of the same songs, so kind of So why.
Speaker 6: Did Grant Funk Railroad post nude in their album We're
Speaker 6: an American band in the bar?
Speaker 2: Interesting story?
Speaker 6: Really do you know that?
Speaker 2: I do know that. Yeah, and it's not suitable for it?
Speaker 2: Oh oh, who it is? Wei's own Andy Hart? But
Speaker 2: why is he coming in here? Energy?
Speaker 6: He's all ready to go, like he just down to
Speaker 6: five hour energy.
Speaker 2: It's a special tree. You can tell he's a true
Speaker 2: radio guy now because he's wearing free clothes, fishing and
Speaker 2: cross stow.
Speaker 15: And that's why I came in because I had to
Speaker 15: tell you, so, Paul, you'll enjoy this. But everybody, this
Speaker 15: is a classic PFW story. So I come out of
Speaker 15: the locker room. Who do I run into?
Speaker 8: Immediately? Bill No Devil.
Speaker 15: He looks at me, he goes, hey, Andy, and then
Speaker 15: he sees the shirt. He goes hits me on the chest.
Speaker 15: He goes, you meathead, Tell me that's not a I
Speaker 15: just got called a meathead by a NFL Pro Bowl
Speaker 15: full back.
Speaker 8: Right, Life's pretty good. Right now. I can die a
Speaker 8: happy man tonight because.
Speaker 2: It means something coming from him.
Speaker 6: He has been excited and keen wind up at full back,
Speaker 6: and I was not excited.
Speaker 8: Chase was excited when Malik Cunningham played, though.
Speaker 6: Oh you're one of the people excited.
Speaker 15: Oh he saved the game. The game was an absolute stinker.
Speaker 15: As Mike Gardi would say, the game stink, itt stanked
Speaker 15: and it's stunk.
Speaker 6: To what level are you excited about Malie Cunningham preseason?
Speaker 2: Going forward?
Speaker 8: Preseason level?
Speaker 15: Michael Bishop? Old, he is Michael Bishop. He is going
Speaker 15: to elicit excitement and energy in the fan base. He's
Speaker 15: going to be Mac Jones's new worst nightmare. We can
Speaker 15: put Zappy to bed and go to Malik Cunningham and
Speaker 15: the guy. That's what I'm trying to get at. So
Speaker 15: you think this goes beyond the preseason?
Speaker 7: Oh?
Speaker 8: Absolutely?
Speaker 15: Okay, Wait a minute, I think people will be saying cunning.
Speaker 3: So you're saying for people, Okay, enough for me, Okay,
Speaker 3: I think he's the perfect you mean people, Yeah, you
Speaker 3: people will.
Speaker 8: Be saying Malik cunning him. But he's the perfect practice
Speaker 8: squad player.
Speaker 6: Okay, Like I thought you were saying, you.
Speaker 15: Can we go back to the throw he didn't make
Speaker 15: ta booty the other day. You would have made that throw, Fred,
Speaker 15: and I've seen you throw the.
Speaker 2: One handed one.
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I'm.
Speaker 2: You would have made it.
Speaker 8: All five of us would have made the throw better
Speaker 8: than he did. No disrespect. I love the kid.
Speaker 2: That was the first.
Speaker 15: Clever and smart as he said about himself. I liked
Speaker 15: that called himself clever and smart. That's why you can
Speaker 15: learn two positions.
Speaker 2: Does he end up in the quarterback room at any point?
Speaker 6: Uh?
Speaker 8: Well, I mean he's better than Trace mcsorely.
Speaker 3: He's much more dynamic. I mean, I think that's whatever.
Speaker 8: Adjective you want to use. He's trace McSorley. Yes, he's
Speaker 8: don't see anything.
Speaker 15: I totally agree this is going to sound disrespectful, but
Speaker 15: I don't work for you anymore.
Speaker 8: He seems like a waste of time.
Speaker 2: I don't think Trace mcley is going to be on
Speaker 2: the team, so.
Speaker 8: Oh no, neither of them will be YEA the practice squad.
Speaker 8: I think he's the perfect practice squad player.
Speaker 2: It's like seventy people.
Speaker 6: We should have an applause line.
Speaker 8: I'll give rhim it's Tom Brown. Why are there beers
Speaker 8: in the background? I just noticed those.
Speaker 2: Those are the forever New England beers.
Speaker 8: Are they full?
Speaker 2: Okay? That's so Scout. I think he's obsessed with that.
Speaker 3: What is one of the things that has been a
Speaker 3: really big problem for this team in recent years? Defending
Speaker 3: mobile quarterbacks? I think list right, No, I don't. That's
Speaker 3: why I answered the question because I didn't want you
Speaker 3: to get all me. So why walking there I tackling?
Speaker 3: I mean I brought it up on on the broadcast,
Speaker 3: like this is like the perfect guy. Like a month
Speaker 3: from now they're going to be preparing for Jalen.
Speaker 8: Hurts, rubbing it in my face that he's on the broadcast,
Speaker 8: and I'm not.
Speaker 5: Well, you could have been on pack matthaee, but not.
Speaker 16: I.
Speaker 8: I just saw he's waiting to do a podcast with me.
Speaker 8: He's probably like, I just like to go home.
Speaker 6: We got ninety eight point five? What's like? Is this okay?
Speaker 14: Like?
Speaker 6: Are your boss is going to be like were you.
Speaker 3: Doing when you're a jet crossing the streams?
Speaker 2: I think my bosses are okay with it.
Speaker 8: Oh big rating balls on the table.
Speaker 6: No threat, no threat there.
Speaker 2: Over here, I think.
Speaker 8: Okay, I'd like to think I'm at least Malik Cunningham.
Speaker 8: I might not be able to play, but some people
Speaker 8: like me.
Speaker 4: You are.
Speaker 2: You are that exciting and dynamics you. I'll take Mully Cunningham. Yeez. No,
Speaker 2: I mean in terms of things to get excited about
Speaker 2: your lost control. They show it something a moment you
Speaker 2: walked in that when you sit down on strikeout on
Speaker 2: his house it stands for craft as in craft sports production.
Speaker 2: No it doesn't, but I thought I could get away fine.
Speaker 15: It reminds me of the one that Shanahan had with
Speaker 15: the little logo in the middle for forty nine ers
Speaker 15: that is white circle.
Speaker 8: Okay, this isn't offensive. It's not a charity or something.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, it's it's core golf. But okay, it
Speaker 2: would track for a radio guy to be wearing a
Speaker 2: circle K hat for free to remote. When I was
Speaker 2: handing out.
Speaker 8: I got my shirt for freeze.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: No, in terms of things but stuff coming.
Speaker 3: But for the case of that stuff coming, we got
Speaker 3: to talk about that off air product.
Speaker 2: Is the product coming?
Speaker 8: I just had one.
Speaker 6: Okay, it's an energy.
Speaker 8: It's great for it. You should try it in all seriousness.
Speaker 6: Why why is it different from every other energy drink?
Speaker 15: Because he sponsors any that means ful, That's partially the reason.
Speaker 15: But no, it doesn't make me feel funny. I just
Speaker 15: don't get tired, like when I.
Speaker 8: Literally had it in the fourth quarter, said it's okay.
Speaker 8: What do you mean?
Speaker 15: I don't feel I don't like if I drink a
Speaker 15: coffee late, my belly feels yeah, I have no entiety.
Speaker 6: Don't make me feel well.
Speaker 8: This is better than five hour energy?
Speaker 2: Can you can.
Speaker 8: You five hour and fifteen minute energy?
Speaker 17: No?
Speaker 2: Five is a magic number, stupid eleven minute apps. No
Speaker 2: a tree.
Speaker 6: In a couple of years, I'll find out you'll grow
Speaker 6: an extra ball or something.
Speaker 8: Well, I did ask the guy. You know, I had
Speaker 8: these on Draft night and I had four of them,
Speaker 8: and I asked the.
Speaker 15: Guy how many you're supposed to have? He goes, how
Speaker 15: mad you have four? He goes Jesus that.
Speaker 6: It's not.
Speaker 8: Here now too, I mean the microphone.
Speaker 2: Don't try to the Boston accent. I think I have
Speaker 2: that down now.
Speaker 8: I don't really think you help it.
Speaker 2: I thought I did you show him tweeted, called me.
Speaker 8: We've been talking about it for five minutes.
Speaker 2: It's on the screen again the Pat McAfee show.
Speaker 8: How many cameras are on you in that shop?
Speaker 2: I don't look that.
Speaker 6: I could.
Speaker 2: I need to lose like that old Kansas coach. It's
Speaker 2: like one of those VR rides at Universal Studios. My god,
Speaker 2: it's there. Did you not see it?

Speaker 15: called him a legend. I feel like I get to

Speaker 6: Okay, if they lose to the Bengals, what's the scenario
Speaker 6: for that.
Speaker 3: They need to win to get the number one seed.
Speaker 2: What if they beat the Bengals, they need to win
Speaker 2: to secure the.
Speaker 6: Number one See either way, it's the same, correct.
Speaker 1: Live from our studios inside Jillette Stadium.
Speaker 2: Here's Hardy all right. Patriots dropped their preseason opener to
Speaker 2: the Texans tonight. Twenty to nine was the final here
Speaker 2: from Gillette Stadium. We're talking about it with Mike Dussau
Speaker 2: and Fred Kersh and Paul Parilla and with you at
Speaker 2: eight five to five, Pats five hundred. We'll hear from
Speaker 2: the head coach here in just a little while. But
Speaker 2: first to your calls speed in Fresno's speed. What's going on, buddy.
Speaker 19: It's kind of sad Andy Leeves for such a great
Speaker 19: job there at EE, but the guys can't even afford
Speaker 19: a decent razor. Yeah, he looks like he's been stuck
Speaker 19: in an airport.
Speaker 6: Term now now that's that's his look.
Speaker 2: Now, speed.
Speaker 3: He he doesn't work here anymore, so he doesn't have
Speaker 3: all the Gillette.
Speaker 6: Oh right, that's on perps, scruffy, scruffy.
Speaker 19: That's that's that's not that's not part of enough for
Speaker 19: the heart of I don't like it for it. Yeah,
Speaker 19: and that Christian Dolls getting blown up on i think
Speaker 19: probably his first first place gameplay of his NFL career.
Speaker 19: All I could think of was, you know, Christy Watkins
Speaker 19: her untimely demised the start of Jaws just brutal.
Speaker 2: Oh oh that's one. So that that what you're doing?
Speaker 2: That is one? And and that was that was well
Speaker 2: that's an inside joke. Yes, well one of the over
Speaker 2: the over unders one and a half, so this is
Speaker 2: not references.
Speaker 12: I think that's the quarter I gave you a quarter.
Speaker 2: Which, by the way, oh go ahead speed. Did you
Speaker 2: have something else on the game?
Speaker 19: Yeah, I was just I was happy with that completion
Speaker 19: to Thornton. But I don't not not to go off
Speaker 19: the rails too much. But I just wonder with with
Speaker 19: this team, because I don't think I got much about
Speaker 19: the team tonight. I was just thinking about the zone
Speaker 19: in general, and how there's probably going to be kind
Speaker 19: of a few few and far between trips there offensively
Speaker 19: and every year. Well it seems to you guys like
Speaker 19: in the offseason. You're telling us about how much of
Speaker 19: an emphasis there is at least the start of campus
Speaker 19: that are like on the red zone, and I just
Speaker 19: it just seems like there's a lot of emphasis but
Speaker 19: underwhelming delivery consistently. It just seems like an ongoing issue,
Speaker 19: and one for one tonight you don't have a Pops
Speaker 19: on your guys radar.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I mean that's what I was thinking.
Speaker 5: They weren't really there a lot once. Yeah, the one
Speaker 5: time in.
Speaker 6: The interception, right, No, they didn't get there, and that
Speaker 6: they didn't even get in there there.
Speaker 5: Well, that That's what I wanted to bring up, was
Speaker 5: that the interception was Paul's thing.
Speaker 2: Fourn out pick three, I have thorn out without a
Speaker 2: pick three? Yeah, pick three, that's that's mine. They went backwards,
Speaker 2: that's yours. Yes, apology discounts as the same Jaws reference
Speaker 2: since you mentioned it though, because I was watching it
Speaker 2: of course again the other or night. It is. It
Speaker 2: is the ultimate either bad edit or overdub when he
Speaker 2: says that lie, oh yeah right, this is what happens though,
Speaker 2: This is what happens and camera, I'm like, why is
Speaker 2: that part of another line that they cut there was.
Speaker 5: There was probably like a jump cut or something. They
Speaker 5: had to cover it, so they had to do like
Speaker 5: a pick up and right, let's just get it and
Speaker 5: maybe not sure.
Speaker 3: I know, I can't believe it. I cannot believe that.
Speaker 3: I don't know he's one hundred percent right. I've thought
Speaker 3: that all the time. You guys said the same exact thing.
Speaker 3: I know that you're right, Yeah, you know, he's doing
Speaker 3: the whole autopsy, and then out of nowhere there's just
Speaker 3: a weird cut where he but picks the arm up,
Speaker 3: and you know, it was probably just the special effect
Speaker 3: shot that they're.
Speaker 5: Like, well, it'll be better if they got like maybe
Speaker 5: like get a bloody appendage out of there, you know.
Speaker 2: But all right, there we go. Wow, I'm gonna have
Speaker 2: to go back next. It looks like I won no no,
Speaker 2: no, no no, this is still just one no no, no, no,
Speaker 2: still one.
Speaker 8: To I dedicated to that scene.
Speaker 2: What's going? What's going on? Tyler in the Bay Area? Yes,
Speaker 2: not a poison bag?
Speaker 4: How's it going?
Speaker 19: Long time caller, super looking forward to every show you
Speaker 19: guys have.
Speaker 11: I just want a contrast on the freaking offensive line's
Speaker 11: absolutely terrible.
Speaker 4: What did your guys. Thoughts on getting that better in
Speaker 4: the future.
Speaker 6: Well, that's not our offensive line, thank goodness, but that's
Speaker 6: our depth. Some of them might be well if guys
Speaker 6: don't get healthy. McDermott, for one.
Speaker 2: McDermott could be the starter on opening day.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I would say for me, I'd love to just
Speaker 5: see Michael and when you back out there, and I
Speaker 5: don't know if he's gonna play guard or tackle, but
Speaker 5: I just think he's good and you need him back,
Speaker 5: and he's been missing since the spring, so get him back.
Speaker 2: That's a good step.
Speaker 3: Where do you land on the put him at right
Speaker 3: tackle train?
Speaker 5: I I don't think that he's like has great foot
Speaker 5: speed either, So I think that no matter who you
Speaker 5: put it right tackle, you're gonna have some foot speed issues.
Speaker 2: I at least know that he's a maller, So I'm
Speaker 2: not like, I don't think that that's the end all
Speaker 2: be all. Like, I don't need him. So McDermott, guys
Speaker 2: that were out there, sou the rookie.
Speaker 3: So I thought it was Pigan an urban setting. Andrew
Speaker 3: stupid Well, the starting line was Mafi.
Speaker 6: It was a bunch of It was a bunch of.
Speaker 3: But Fred it like it really wasn't. It wasn't as
Speaker 3: bad as you like some of those guys. I think
Speaker 3: we'll have to like chasing it was McDermott, Mafi, Farens,
Speaker 3: Russy and uh and Sue. So that was the starting
Speaker 3: line for the first half that got completely overwhelmed. I
Speaker 3: think any of those five guys could be starters, like
Speaker 3: for this team, depending on what ends up happening, one
Speaker 3: of them has to be a starter, right.
Speaker 2: McDermott probably right about Riley reef to get the night off.
Speaker 3: Okay, so that's the same thing as what you had. No,
Speaker 3: but he no, I understand that.
Speaker 6: But and did he not play because they expect him
Speaker 6: to be the right tackle?
Speaker 2: I think they just see him as I don't think.
Speaker 3: I think he has as good a chance of not
Speaker 3: making the team as he does of being the answer
Speaker 3: at right tackle.
Speaker 2: I mean, he's the answer, but a guy who.
Speaker 3: Plays right But I think that's McDermott is my point, Like,
Speaker 3: one of those guys is gonna play, That's my point. Like,
Speaker 3: and if he doesn't play, and then they move a
Speaker 3: win you out to tackle, then one of the guys
Speaker 3: that played guard tonight is going to play guard. Mafi
Speaker 3: or Russie or.
Speaker 6: Well, listen, when somebody when you have five guys that
Speaker 6: can't play, it looks really bad. When you have a
Speaker 6: line with one guy, you can cover that up. You
Speaker 6: can cover that up. If there's a weak link, you
Speaker 6: know that.
Speaker 3: But you have to scheme around it, and that handcuffs
Speaker 3: your offense, I know, but you can, you can, And
Speaker 3: I think if you can have like sort of a
Speaker 3: shaky offensive line and be fine, you can't have a
Speaker 3: train wreck like tonight.
Speaker 6: Tonight was a train wreck.
Speaker 2: It was a train wreck, and it was I'll give
Speaker 2: Zappi credit on the on the handful of throws where
Speaker 2: he did to have a second and a half to
Speaker 2: do something with the ball. It is going to seem
Speaker 2: like an embarrassment of riches when either one of these
Speaker 2: guys gets two or three seconds in the pocket. Now
Speaker 2: there are indications something else is going wrong downfield if
Speaker 2: you need that much time. But if they ever get
Speaker 2: any protection time, I think you know they're gonna have
Speaker 2: a completely different look to the passing game. Yeah, and
Speaker 2: hopefully to the running game as well, because there was
Speaker 2: nothing tonight.
Speaker 3: Well, they tried a lot of screens tonight too.
Speaker 5: That well then we get into the separation issues, which
Speaker 5: I think we've seen a little bit in practice too
Speaker 5: though that he's got some time wait wait nothing talk Ron.
Speaker 5: You know we have seen some of that too, So
Speaker 5: I think it's all connected.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I get your point, friend, And that's why
Speaker 3: I don't get lost in the preseason games because I
Speaker 3: know that it's what you see isn't always what you're
Speaker 3: going to get. But I do think that they have
Speaker 3: some depth problems on the offensive line. I am not
Speaker 3: like David Andrews. Is the only thing that I'm certain
Speaker 3: about right now out of the projected started five. Now,
Speaker 3: if you're gonna tell me to your point that A
Speaker 3: when you is going to be fine on September tenth,
Speaker 3: that's two things I'm not worried about. I'm not worried
Speaker 3: about Michael wyn you if he's if he's health.
Speaker 2: Are you worried about Trent Brown's health or I worry
Speaker 2: about engagement everything? Both? Okay, it's it's I was told
Speaker 2: not to worry about his health. It's his want.
Speaker 3: Well, even if it's this one, it might be something
Speaker 3: I personally would agree with that report. I think the
Speaker 3: bigger issue is engagement okay, okay, but he kind of
Speaker 3: always gets hurt.
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, and then cold strange.
Speaker 3: Cold strange. I worry about Like, the last we saw him,
Speaker 3: he was getting benched. So I know everybody just says
Speaker 3: year two he's a pro bowler. Now, maybe he is,
Speaker 3: but until I see it, I worry about him.
Speaker 2: I seem to remember a lot of people saying that
Speaker 2: about the quarterback in year two. I was like the
Speaker 2: lone voice in the wilderness, saying, are you sure he's
Speaker 2: going to be better in year two?
Speaker 6: Well? Because of Patricia?
Speaker 2: Yeah, well did he did? He also play great on
Speaker 2: top of that. That was Paul's point on last season.
Speaker 6: I don't know some of the blame goes on the quarterback.
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, what you guys are guys, let's off it,
Speaker 5: stop it right now.
Speaker 2: This is what happens.
Speaker 5: The story behind that line and jaws, I can't read it.
Speaker 5: So who actually says this is what happens?
Speaker 2: Well, it's definitely him, but Hooper says it. But who's
Speaker 2: giving the whole Uh?
Speaker 5: You know, he's he's laying like the mid thoracic intact
Speaker 5: and and then it's just you're not smoking here, He's
Speaker 5: just running through the he's running through the autopsy lift
Speaker 5: and then it's a total like weird cut and the
Speaker 5: arm comes up and it's just so this is what happens.
Speaker 2: So all right, I'm I'm all in now, okay, so
Speaker 2: let's let's get back to this. So what is who.
Speaker 5: Still counts as one references from the Ocean Graphic Institute,
Speaker 5: and so what is he?
Speaker 2: Well, it sounds like he's a rich kid who drives
Speaker 2: around on a boat. And what's special car cart and
Speaker 2: car car?
Speaker 3: What is it?
Speaker 8: A great white?
Speaker 4: Now?
Speaker 2: What is his specialty? He's like a marine bio.
Speaker 3: Just yeah, right, we'll go to go back to Constanzo.
Speaker 3: He's a real marine biologist.
Speaker 2: Some story. What makes him an expert on the top right? Well,
Speaker 2: bite radius bite radio. He comes in like this is
Speaker 2: no bone. Well he also crewed three transpacts. Can he try?
Speaker 2: Can he tie a sheep shank?
Speaker 4: What?
Speaker 2: What is that? It's a floating insane Yeah, he hasn't
Speaker 2: had to pass basic seamanship in a while. Can I
Speaker 2: get a say how long you wanted it? What's the
Speaker 2: official count out? Now, Madison is just this is still
Speaker 2: one Jaws reference we put up with graphic.
Speaker 6: I was it one.
Speaker 2: I can't wait to.
Speaker 8: Read that article.
Speaker 6: I apologize.
Speaker 2: Yeah, can you text that to us? No one's listening anyway,
Speaker 2: Carlin in Connecticut, Yes, Carlin, thank you for your patience.
Speaker 2: What's going on?
Speaker 21: Hi, Thank you guys for giving me the pleasure to
Speaker 21: speak with you guys today. I just wanted to give
Speaker 21: the shout out to all the guys on on the
Speaker 21: podcast today, you know, thinking wrap Ball.
Speaker 22: Mike and everybody. I've been waiting a lot to get
Speaker 22: on your podcast.
Speaker 2: Wow, welcome, thank you, you're here.
Speaker 21: I'm here, I'm here. I just want to give a
Speaker 21: shout out to my boy Patterson too. I'm actually going
Speaker 21: to my first Patriots game against the Egos for.
Speaker 2: Nice hot ticket excellent. Yeah, yeah, he might be a
Speaker 2: special guest.
Speaker 21: He ended up surprising me and getting me those tickets.
Speaker 21: But yeah, I just wanted to ask you guys a
Speaker 21: question and and just see if what do you guys
Speaker 21: think about our running game this season? Do you guys
Speaker 21: think we're gonna get a little bit better with a
Speaker 21: running game? I know we've added a couple couple people
Speaker 21: to our team in the past couple of months, but
Speaker 21: so like we we have room to get better.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I mean, right now, the running game is
Speaker 6: remandre right pretty much.
Speaker 2: You know. Yeah, I worry and.
Speaker 3: I think they were just okay last year running the ball. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I mean I think you know, he was excellent individually. Yeah,
Speaker 3: that's why you just want to help you.
Speaker 6: I think when you need to improve as much as
Speaker 6: they do on the offensive line, I think there's going
Speaker 6: to be so much focus on pass blocking and protecting
Speaker 6: Mac that I think the running game is going to
Speaker 6: take a hit a little bit.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 5: I'd like to get Time Montgomery two to help him.
Speaker 5: I mean, I think I just I think he's a
Speaker 5: great player, and I think, well, they got to do
Speaker 5: more to help him.
Speaker 6: The idea of Time Montgomery can really help them. But
Speaker 6: we've never seen that manifested. S's true, you know, and
Speaker 6: I think even in the league that one year when
Speaker 6: he was with the Eagles.
Speaker 2: Or no, no, so the Jets.
Speaker 6: No, no, what was the year where he the Packers?
Speaker 6: That that was the year where he kind of came
Speaker 6: out and every both a receiver because they had injuries
Speaker 6: and a running back and he was phenomenal.
Speaker 2: That was twenty sixteen.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that was a long time.
Speaker 3: Eight hundred total yards in twenty sixteen, He's never approached it.
Speaker 6: Right, that was it?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 21: Right, I definitely agree. I mean like, I feel like
Speaker 21: a lot of people don't give a lot of credits
Speaker 21: to like Max Jones, especially. I mean I know that
Speaker 21: you know, this is what third season with us, and
Speaker 21: his first season was phenomenal. I have nothing bad to
Speaker 21: say about Mac Jones his first season. His second season
Speaker 21: was a little bit rocky, and I just feel like
Speaker 21: him coming into his third season, you know, he has
Speaker 21: a lot of expectations, he has a lot.
Speaker 19: Of people to prove wrong, to prove wrong, and you.
Speaker 21: Know there's a lot of time for him to prosper
Speaker 21: and grow into the quarterback that he's supposed to be.
Speaker 22: But I feel like the credit.
Speaker 21: Isn't definitely given when, like when it's time for Mac
Speaker 21: Droones to deserve it, you know what I mean?
Speaker 2: Well, Carlin and I'm glad you called in. Please please call,
Speaker 2: please call back, glad we could make your dreams come true.
Speaker 2: Like my name's actually Clicks. I think he gets the
Speaker 2: credit he deserves for having, you know, a a rookie season,
Speaker 2: talk about Carlton and then and then look he made
Speaker 2: the made the postseason is great, got blown out, probably
Speaker 2: didn't belong in the pole season.
Speaker 6: I think Mac had a competent of a good rookie season,
Speaker 6: but he faded down the stretch, you know. And and
Speaker 6: I think he had a good season.
Speaker 2: I think he had a good rookie season. Yeah, but
Speaker 2: he gets and he gets credit for that.
Speaker 3: I think if he has the same exact season right now,
Speaker 3: no one, not one person will call it phenomenal.
Speaker 6: We'll be upset, will it?
Speaker 2: You think?
Speaker 7: So?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah? If he's as good as he was in
Speaker 2: year one and that's all he is in in this upcoming.
Speaker 3: That means the last half of the season they fell
Speaker 3: off again.
Speaker 2: If he has the same season, okay, the exact same season,
Speaker 2: but I'm saying like they have more than if you
Speaker 2: want to reword it, I'm just kidding. I'm talking about
Speaker 2: his play.
Speaker 6: I want to reword it by saying if he if
Speaker 6: you look at his rookie season, if you take his
Speaker 6: best performances there and he does that consistently this season,
Speaker 6: then that would be a big leap. Yes, Okay, yes,
Speaker 6: I'll take that. Okay, and he does.
Speaker 3: And he does he does the Cleveland game, say seventeen
Speaker 3: times seventeen times.
Speaker 2: But I think you'd be shocked.
Speaker 3: And I heard this a little bit on that show
Speaker 3: that we were talking about earlier, Mike in the pregame
Speaker 3: with Joe Murray and Alex Barth.
Speaker 2: Good.
Speaker 3: You know our friend Alex Barth does the catch twenty
Speaker 3: two with Evan. The last eight games of his rookie
Speaker 3: year compared comparatively to the last eight games last year.
Speaker 3: Last year's last eight games were better than the last
Speaker 3: eight games as rookie year.
Speaker 2: Which tells you how bad his last eight games were
Speaker 2: in a rookie year. Right, Okay, Jeff and Maine, congratulations
Speaker 2: on your little leaguers beating Canton tonight. I'm sure you
Speaker 2: were watching.
Speaker 6: Oh Canton lost?
Speaker 2: They did? Yes, Hello Jeff.
Speaker 12: Hey, Yeah, that's that's what I was going to say.
Speaker 12: You know, we don't we don't have much for national
Speaker 12: athletics in Maine. We have little league Cooper Flag and
Speaker 12: like a couple practice squad players and Patrick the WinCE un.
Speaker 2: So uh Cooper Flag.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 3: I got a chance to watch play last year. He
Speaker 3: played against my son. It was like he was playing
Speaker 3: a different sport than my son was.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 12: Little victories all right, Yeah, Yeah, we don't get much
Speaker 12: up here, But I just wanted to say that in
Speaker 12: terms of the old line. Obviously, I mean, we all
Speaker 12: watch the game. They they stink, stank, stunk, as you
Speaker 12: already would say. But I also think, you know, talking
Speaker 12: about how you know, a couple of these guys might
Speaker 12: have to start, you know, kind of you guys were
Speaker 12: talking about pessimistically earlier, which is understandable. I also think
Speaker 12: it's kind of unfair to judge all five guys based
Speaker 12: off of an athletic performance, you know, looking at it
Speaker 12: in a vacuum. An O line can stink if you
Speaker 12: have three terrible players and one good one and one
Speaker 12: okay one. You know, like if I didn't watch the
Speaker 12: wan Ones a time. I obviously haven't watched the All
Speaker 12: twenty two or whatever, but you know, like if if
Speaker 12: Mafy had a good day, you can still look at
Speaker 12: it and say, wow, you know, the offensive line stunk today,
Speaker 12: but you may not have to be concerned about Antonio
Speaker 12: Maffi in the future.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with that. I agree with that, and
Speaker 2: I think you're being You're being totally fair. I just
Speaker 2: and and again, given it the initial eyeball test, there
Speaker 2: were so many guys in the backfield on so many plays.
Speaker 2: It's hard for me to believe that you could go
Speaker 2: back and watch the All twenty two and watch the
Speaker 2: one on one matchups and say, oh, actually, you know what,
Speaker 2: Sue So actually had a pretty good game. After all.
Speaker 2: I'd be shocked to learn that any of those guys
Speaker 2: who played a meaningful number of reps to night comes
Speaker 2: away with a positive grade. I'd be based on.
Speaker 3: The different amount of Texans that seemed to be in
Speaker 3: the backfield, like from different areas, I would agree with you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but based on that alone, that's just you know,
Speaker 2: my initial take.
Speaker 5: If I had to put somebody on the microscope, though,
Speaker 5: I'd like to see Mafi because I think he, of
Speaker 5: all those guys, has shown, you know, just the most
Speaker 5: little bits of promise.
Speaker 2: But he's probably right. Uh, we're gonna go to Bill
Speaker 2: in a moment. Okay, no, no, oh lift.
Speaker 1: Arm head, shoulders certainly, and portions of the rib cag'retect.
Speaker 19: You're not smoking here, thank you very much.
Speaker 3: This is what.
Speaker 16: Happens in indicates the non frenzy feeding of it there.
Speaker 2: It is so I read the article Hardy, Hardy, dug
Speaker 2: it up. It's it's exactly what we said.
Speaker 6: They had to read it.
Speaker 5: Well, I just think, you know, it's like a bunch
Speaker 5: of filler and then there's like one paragraph that tells
Speaker 5: you good what happened. But no, it's just it's you know,
Speaker 5: they had to make a cut. They didn't have a
Speaker 5: smooth place to make a cut while he's doing the autopsy,
Speaker 5: so they just you know.
Speaker 2: Took that shot put the But what did that mean?
Speaker 10: Yeah?
Speaker 2: What did that mean?
Speaker 6: This is what happens.
Speaker 2: It's like we just have to come up with me.
Speaker 5: Well, think about this way, like put it this way, like,
Speaker 5: all right, we've got a shot of the arm being
Speaker 5: lifted up. We need a line to put over that.
Speaker 5: What do we say, because we need to put like
Speaker 5: a little interstitial to break this because they said it
Speaker 5: was too long.
Speaker 2: They wanted to shorten it. So it was just you know,
Speaker 2: you had to come up with a little throwaway line
Speaker 2: of you know, like, wow, we really got our hair. Huh.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean. You got to come up
Speaker 2: with something.
Speaker 3: Then later you know, it's like, you know, girl goes
Speaker 3: up for a swim, she gets tired. You know, it's
Speaker 3: caught in a bowl propeller. It's happened.
Speaker 6: This is what happens.
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe this is still stopping, but it stops one
Speaker 2: of one of those it's one of those lines that
Speaker 2: that you know, it presents more questions than it answers,
Speaker 2: Like the kids who's begging for something is being wheeled
Speaker 2: down in a hospital, Gurdie, Maybe, why do you buy coffee?
Speaker 2: Does he want coffee? Or does he want coffee flavored
Speaker 2: ice coffee ice cream? What kid wants coffee flavored ice cream?
Speaker 2: You don't like?
Speaker 6: I used to like coffee flavored ice cream.
Speaker 2: Did you like black jelly beans too?
Speaker 22: No?
Speaker 3: Okay, I did have a friend who liked coffee ice cream.
Speaker 3: Andy Filban, Yeah, oh, coffee ice cream is good, the
Speaker 3: rookie Filban he used to refer to himself.
Speaker 2: Do you like Tierramy Sue? Yeah, it's not bad? Is good?
Speaker 2: Not not my favorite, but it's good.
Speaker 5: Got an Oreo Tiarsue, that's my favorite.
Speaker 2: I pulled up Tim in Virginia two minut It has
Speaker 2: been silent this entire time. Tim, you're a pro. Thank
Speaker 2: you for holding what's going on?
Speaker 6: Hey?
Speaker 23: How you doing?
Speaker 11: Long time listener, first time caller? You know, I appreciate
Speaker 11: you guys taking my call. I hear you guys complaining
Speaker 11: about the past blocking issue. However, we all we also
Speaker 11: have a mobile quarterback on there. That might give way
Speaker 11: for Taekwon Thornton to get a receiving Well, he might
Speaker 11: get a spot up here.
Speaker 12: We got a lot of good receivers.
Speaker 11: We could dump McSorley, trade them to the practice squad,
Speaker 11: trade them somewhere. McDonald's something.
Speaker 2: Okay, So you want to get rid of So you're
Speaker 2: saying m You're saying Malie Cunningham can make the receivers better.
Speaker 6: Is that what you're saying?
Speaker 11: No, Malik Cunningham could be a good backup quarterback.
Speaker 2: Man, you want to bring in a new mobile quarterback.
Speaker 11: I don't think that Sorely is good enough.
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, Well I don't McSorley is gonna make
Speaker 2: the team.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I really don't think McSorley is going to make
Speaker 3: the team.
Speaker 5: Yeah, don't worry about McSorley.
Speaker 2: Okay, the no need, no need to worryop telling me
Speaker 2: that I won't Rob in Australia.
Speaker 6: Hi, Rob, it's eleven in the afternoon there, I think,
Speaker 6: is it?
Speaker 2: Well, depends on what part of Australia the middle of winner.
Speaker 2: That's time.
Speaker 22: First of all, I just want to say I really
Speaker 22: appreciated the Brewsters Millions talk on the pregame show.
Speaker 6: Is that.
Speaker 2: The boss.
Speaker 22: Million John my favorite actor in that movie. By the way,
Speaker 22: that's a great job.
Speaker 2: I thought that.
Speaker 3: Spike Spike football question and this after watching the game today.
Speaker 22: The offensive line obviously looks like it's in shambles, and
Speaker 22: then receivers don't look great either. Would you with lakey
Speaker 22: On White played, would you be willing to trade Josh
Speaker 22: to a team to get maybe their number three tackles
Speaker 22: or to a team that you could maybe pick up
Speaker 22: their number two wide receiver even if you had a
Speaker 22: kick in like a third or fourth round pick with Josh,
Speaker 22: uh that kem White looked good enough as your other
Speaker 22: end outside of like Matt Judon. Because I just don't
Speaker 22: think we have enough on the offensive line and on
Speaker 22: wide receiver, and you might actually have enough there on
Speaker 22: the edges for pass rushing and you can get rid
Speaker 22: of a guy like Early and then pick up something
Speaker 22: that you could use this year.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 6: I don't know if if another team coveted enough to
Speaker 6: give us a number one wide receiver or number one
Speaker 6: tackle then I would consider that.
Speaker 9: Well.
Speaker 6: Yeah, see, I'm not going to give them up for
Speaker 6: a number two receiver because we have number two receivers
Speaker 6: and we have you know, so I just don't think
Speaker 6: it's enough. I don't want to give up a number
Speaker 6: two tackle.
Speaker 2: I could use a number two Yeah, number two tackle. Yeah,
Speaker 2: how about that, Robs? My answer, my answer was almost yes.
Speaker 3: On the number three test, I oddly once again agreed
Speaker 3: with Fred. I don't think you need to give up
Speaker 3: Josh Uca to get a third tackle from somebody, but
Speaker 3: a second. But a second tackle someone who starts for
Speaker 3: somebody that maybe has a young guy that they think
Speaker 3: can step in for that second tackle.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I gotta think I'd rather just go on onnu
Speaker 5: on that in that case, you know, and keep keep
Speaker 5: your eyes.
Speaker 2: I don't think it's going to happen. I don't think
Speaker 2: you need to.
Speaker 6: Would you give up? And when you for Tyron Smith?
Speaker 2: No, no, Tyron Smith.
Speaker 24: Yeah we're old. Yeah, he's like close to done. All right, Rob,
Speaker 24: thank you for the call. Good to hear from you.
Speaker 24: Thanks appreciate it. Uh, we are good for Bill Belichick. Good,
Speaker 24: let's hear from the head coach. And before we do,
Speaker 24: we would like to.
Speaker 2: Thank uh Microsoft Surface, the official sideline technology provider and
Speaker 2: laptop of the NFL and the New England Patriots that
Speaker 2: provides players and coaches with the tools to succeed both
Speaker 2: on and off the field. Check out the powerful Surface
Speaker 2: Pro nine, combining the power of a laptop with the
Speaker 2: flexibility of a tablet at Surface dot com. Here's the
Speaker 2: head coach.
Speaker 6: They're up to nine already.
Speaker 7: Okay, well, it's again good to get that first game,
Speaker 7: you know under our belt there. You know, certainly there's
Speaker 7: a lot of things we can improve in and you know,
Speaker 7: I thought there were some there were some positives in
Speaker 7: the game. We'll take a lot of the film here
Speaker 7: and take a little closer look at it. But you know,
Speaker 7: defensively played pretty competitively, and then offensively, you know, too
Speaker 7: many long yarded situations. Couldn't have on third down, you know,
Speaker 7: it didn't really didn't have a lot to show for
Speaker 7: our offensive efforts until you know, the last last drive
Speaker 7: of the game. So it's good to see those guys
Speaker 7: compete out there. But you know, just to step in
Speaker 7: the process here and you know, we'll get back to
Speaker 7: work here tomorrow and and keep grinding going forward.
Speaker 5: Hi, Bell, Can you just speak to what you saw
Speaker 5: from Malie Cunningham tonight?
Speaker 7: Yeah, did a nice job, show some poise out there
Speaker 7: and you know, some toughness moved the team. That's nice.
Speaker 7: Did a nice job.
Speaker 6: Bill.
Speaker 9: We didn't see a lot of Millie Cunningham at quarterback
Speaker 9: throughout the first couple of weeks of training camp until
Speaker 9: the last few days. Was that something that he showed
Speaker 9: in those few practices that made you want to give
Speaker 9: him a look at quarterback or was that the plan
Speaker 9: all along?
Speaker 7: Yeah, he's been working on both spots all the way.
Speaker 25: Just wondering how difficult is it for a quarterback or
Speaker 25: excuse me, well, a player who's preparing at a different
Speaker 25: position to go in at quarterback and have to manage
Speaker 25: the playbook and the huddle without as much experience as
Speaker 25: with the other players on the roster.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't know. That's his opportunity, and he's done
Speaker 7: a good job with it. He's embraced it. He's worked hard,
Speaker 7: he's improved a lot as a receiver and snaps. He's
Speaker 7: had a quarterback in practice and tonight you know it's
Speaker 7: done pretty Jouble.
Speaker 5: Your chrission Ben of Keyon White you know this summer
Speaker 5: and in tonat out here on his debut.
Speaker 7: Yeah, he's getting better. You know, we'll have to look
Speaker 7: at the film on the game, but yeah, Keounts improved, Uh,
Speaker 7: you know all through the spring and in training camp
Speaker 7: here and you know Sale went tonight, but it seemed
Speaker 7: like it was all right.
Speaker 25: Uh high again.
Speaker 9: Uh.
Speaker 25: In terms of to Mario, we saw him, I think
Speaker 25: return a punt and get a few snaps on offense,
Speaker 25: but not a big workload for him. What goes into
Speaker 25: your decision and getting him suited up for just a
Speaker 25: few snaps or how do you decide how a rookie
Speaker 25: like that is going to kind of get in and
Speaker 25: out pretty quick?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 7: Uh yeah, I've got the playtimes, you know, kind of
Speaker 7: based on how the practices have gone. So guys have
Speaker 7: gotten more work working practice, got a less time in
Speaker 7: the game, and guys have got less work in practice,
Speaker 7: got more time in the game, so we can evaluate everybody.
Speaker 7: How did you read Bailey's appys job today? Sorry, how
Speaker 7: would you read Bailey's appeys? Yeah, we'll take a look
Speaker 7: at it. Uh, you know, didn't turn the ball over.
Speaker 7: I thought he you know, had some good throws and
Speaker 7: there's some tough situations, some long yardage or some pressure.
Speaker 7: Take a look at it, Bill, Anthony Fokes I got
Speaker 7: to play tonight. Could you just talk a little bit
Speaker 7: what you saw from him. Yeah. I mean again, look,
Speaker 7: I can't sit here and I give you a rundown
Speaker 7: on every player. I me, there's a lot of plays
Speaker 7: going on out there. I can't. I can't do that.
Speaker 7: But you know, Ferks had a good, good spring with us,
Speaker 7: good camp with us. You know, he's shown up positively
Speaker 7: smart it catch the ball well, and that was good
Speaker 7: at him out there. Bill.
Speaker 20: He mentioned excuse me, you mentioned someone of the pressure
Speaker 20: that that Bailey dealt with. Is it difficult to evaluate
Speaker 20: his night tonight because of the situation with the pressures
Speaker 20: and having guys in his face.
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, I mean we were, you know, dealing with
Speaker 7: some injuries on the offensive line, but you know, the
Speaker 7: guys that were in there, I mean got some experience.
Speaker 7: But yeah, there wasn't just tough for the backs and
Speaker 7: stuff for the quarterbacks. So yeah, we didn't have a
Speaker 7: lot of a lot of space on the offense. You know,
Speaker 7: for the most part.
Speaker 9: Time, well over the last couple of seasons, we mostly
Speaker 9: saw Jalen Mills at cornerback. Just what have you seen
Speaker 9: fro him the summer at safety?
Speaker 7: Yeah, Jalen's you know, experienced guys played safety and played
Speaker 7: all the positions really in the Secondaria's played the nickel,
Speaker 7: played at the corner, and played played safety at Philly here.
Speaker 7: He played safety here his first year for a better
Speaker 7: part of the I think all the spring and then
Speaker 7: you know a little bit in the little bit in
Speaker 7: training camp. So he's a smart, versatile Guy's played all
Speaker 7: his positions in the NFL. It gives us some good
Speaker 7: versatility and experience at different spots.
Speaker 25: I think we saw Marte hanging out with the Steve
Speaker 25: for a lot of the game. Did do you have
Speaker 25: a sense of like what they were working on or
Speaker 25: what Marte was doing? Was he like logging plays or
Speaker 25: and why is that valuable for him when he's not playing.
Speaker 7: You hear the call and follow the game. Somebody's got
Speaker 7: to do it, so let him do it. No, he said,
Speaker 7: somebody is gonna do it. So players not going to
Speaker 7: play in the game, that's you know what to keep
Speaker 7: them engaged in coming him.
Speaker 10: That's the new uh. Andrew Callahan of the back h Bill,
Speaker 10: looked like you guys win tempo offensively in that second series.
Speaker 10: Anything you or coach O'Brien were just trying to achieve
Speaker 10: or or see there on that drive.
Speaker 7: Yeah. No, I mean we've we've you know, excited from
Speaker 7: time to time all year or so. Yeah, it's not
Speaker 7: a big thing.
Speaker 10: You saw on that drive as you went tempo that
Speaker 10: you feel like you learned seeing that in game setting.
Speaker 7: H No, it's just more of the operation experience of
Speaker 7: the operation.
Speaker 6: Hey Bill, how did you think Bryce did with the
Speaker 6: pun and game he was he was in there for
Speaker 6: the first half.
Speaker 7: Yeah. Again, we'll take a look at it. Yeah, there's
Speaker 7: I mean, well we'll see, Hey.
Speaker 17: Bill, just wondering if is it more of a progression
Speaker 17: now or is it a big jump between this past
Speaker 17: week and next week when you go to Green Bay
Speaker 17: and the joints.
Speaker 7: Every day is an opportunity, so just try to make
Speaker 7: the most of every opportunity, whether it's practice here or
Speaker 7: practicing at Green Bay or Tennessee, or playing the games
Speaker 7: or whatever it is. So let's try to get the
Speaker 7: most out of it we can to help get our
Speaker 7: team ready, and let's take it as it comes. So
Speaker 7: I don't know how hard or easy it is, but
Speaker 7: whatever it is, just try to try to get the
Speaker 7: most out of it.
Speaker 25: On the turnover where Keon White was in the backfield,
Speaker 25: what did you see from.
Speaker 5: How he played that play where they maybe had a
Speaker 5: little fumbled exchange there.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it looked like he was just unblocked off the edge,
Speaker 7: run him off the ball. Yeah, I'm not sure exactly
Speaker 7: what happened. Looks like he just came clean though. Great, Okay,
Speaker 7: thank you.
Speaker 2: All right, So there's your head coach. Actually pretty pretty chatty,
Speaker 2: and I think gave an honest assessment of the game there.
Speaker 2: In his opening remarks, he said, look good to get
Speaker 2: something going offensively there. Toward the end, he said, but
Speaker 2: gives us something to work on. There were a couple
Speaker 2: of I thought, like, you know, code words that especially
Speaker 2: get used in the preseason during camp. You know, when
Speaker 2: he talks about you know, guys that got it good
Speaker 2: that they got a chance to compete, aka, hey, not
Speaker 2: really gonna make the team, but it's fun to get
Speaker 2: you know, to see them get out there and compete.
Speaker 2: You know, when he says that Malik did a nice job,
Speaker 2: you know, it's a nice job, like almost who knows
Speaker 2: what will happen here in the next couple of games.
Speaker 2: It's fine, but everybody just calmed down a little bit. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so there's a little bit of that on on both sides,
Speaker 2: you know, not just for the for the good plays,
Speaker 2: but for the bad plays too. Is good, Yeah he was.
Speaker 2: He was not trying to, you know, blow Sunshine up
Speaker 2: anyone's rear end with his opening remarks.
Speaker 3: No, I think he's okay to I mean, I thought,
Speaker 3: like the Cunningham comments, I thought he probably gave more
Speaker 3: than I was expected.
Speaker 6: It was almost like he's like, you know, I know
Speaker 6: they're going to ask me about cunning him, and they're
Speaker 6: gonna expect me to blow them off. So I'm not
Speaker 6: going to blow them off, you.
Speaker 2: Know, I thought goes into it.
Speaker 5: Uh yeah, I mean, it's it's what you expect, and
Speaker 5: I think, you know, there's certainly I think we're all
Speaker 5: kind of balanced at the top of it's a preseason
Speaker 5: game and you don't want to get too worked up.
Speaker 5: But at the same time, you can't watch eleven practices
Speaker 5: over the last couple of weeks and see some issues
Speaker 5: and then see those issues continue to carry over here,
Speaker 5: especially when it's person twelve twelve tra especially when it
Speaker 5: carries over to you know, positions that we've been watching
Speaker 5: where you know it's it's personnel. You got guys injured
Speaker 5: on the offensive line, you don't have a lot of
Speaker 5: bodies at running back, and you know those things are
Speaker 5: are are real, and so I do think you need
Speaker 5: to highlight what these issues are going to be, like
Speaker 5: when we get to Green Baby Green Bay's defensive front
Speaker 5: against this offensive line, like, that's gonna be some interest
Speaker 5: in watching.
Speaker 2: Well, that was also something that maybe a little more
Speaker 2: big picture And I don't know if he was being
Speaker 2: you know, totally genuine in this reply, but when he
Speaker 2: talked about the guys who are playing tonight, and he's like, well,
Speaker 2: guys will get more time in practice. You know, they
Speaker 2: get the time in practice. This for guys who didn't
Speaker 2: get as much time in practice. So what are you
Speaker 2: saying that the preseason game? And again, this is kind
Speaker 2: of like a bigger picture a question for the entire
Speaker 2: NFL bill. Are you going, you know, under the belief
Speaker 2: that this is just a glorified practice because you are
Speaker 2: selling tickets for this and it is supposed to be
Speaker 2: a product.
Speaker 6: I know, kind it's almost like to me, he's preparing
Speaker 6: for the time with his own only two preseason games
Speaker 6: and there's eighteen regular season games, and joint practices really
Speaker 6: are taking the place of preseason games where you truly
Speaker 6: get to see your guys compete.
Speaker 3: Right, And it also can change, like the guys might
Speaker 3: get a little less time in practice, and you know,
Speaker 3: the starters quote unquote could play more in the game
Speaker 3: as you go forth, Like last year that Raiders game,
Speaker 3: Mac Jones stayed in that game the entire first half.
Speaker 3: I mean it was a good amount of the first
Speaker 3: part of that was because they didn't play well.
Speaker 5: And they had two weeks off. It's before the game too. Mean,
Speaker 5: that's another new consideration too with some of these.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I do think it changes a little bit.
Speaker 3: But as it relates to to Mario Douglas, I do
Speaker 3: think that he's you know, Fred and I were talking
Speaker 3: about him as Bill was talking, and then all of
Speaker 3: a sudden, one of the next questions was about him,
Speaker 3: and you know, you didn't really get a chance to
Speaker 3: see him, like he caught a punt. I don't think
Speaker 3: he was targeted. I think he was in there for
Speaker 3: the first series or two offensively. I don't think he
Speaker 3: was targeted. Yeah, I don't think that's an accident. I
Speaker 3: think that they think they have something there, and I
Speaker 3: don't think they're necessarily interested in showing everybody what they have.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, all right, you know, let's go back to
Speaker 2: the phones here, eighty five to five, pats five hundred,
Speaker 2: we'll go to Bob in Canton. Hello, Bob, thanks for
Speaker 2: being on with us, Thanks for being from Canton. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 2: sorry about the team tonight, big.
Speaker 23: Guys, a great show. Thanks for taking my call. I
Speaker 23: have some questions about the old line, but it's not
Speaker 23: about the players. It's about position coach Adrian Clem because
Speaker 23: I don't hear much about anything from him. I think
Speaker 23: I saw him his image on the game broadcast once today.
Speaker 23: But anyways, questions are, what do you see him doing
Speaker 23: in practice?
Speaker 19: What is he what was what.
Speaker 23: Did you see him do tonight at tonight's game? Does
Speaker 23: he is he coaching these guys up? Is he talking
Speaker 23: to them? And and what's he saying publicly about what's
Speaker 23: going on with the offensive line. So I guess what
Speaker 23: I'm saying is does he deserve any blame for what
Speaker 23: we're saying is.
Speaker 2: There any accountability for Adrian Clem.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, he didn't pick these players. But it's
Speaker 6: a good question in terms of like what does he
Speaker 6: do on the side.
Speaker 2: Okay, thanks, I don't know he does on the side.
Speaker 5: I wasn't really watching him tonight, but I mean, I
Speaker 5: just I mean, I have to compare it to what
Speaker 5: we saw last year, which was, you know, Matt Patricia
Speaker 5: kind of split in time between the offense and the
Speaker 5: offensive line. Like for me, it's just nice to see
Speaker 5: him now, you know, back to normal, Like you've got
Speaker 5: a guy down in the Yates of Hell, uh, you know,
Speaker 5: working with the offensive line throwing bags around. He's he's
Speaker 5: with them all the time, So you know, from that perspective,
Speaker 5: I I like it. I'd liked everything. He seems like
Speaker 5: a very serious guy. But I don't really have anybody obviously.
Speaker 3: He's talking to the players and coaching the players, Like
Speaker 3: what exactly you know, the schemes are. I'm not sure
Speaker 3: that we're qualified to answer that or what we're being
Speaker 3: at practice every day in terms of what he's teaching
Speaker 3: them now, we're not privy to what he's actually saying.
Speaker 3: But I agree with Mike, I think to have an
Speaker 3: actual offensive line coach, not that I didn't think Matt
Speaker 3: Patricia could be an offensive line coach. I just think
Speaker 3: it's too much to do the line in the offensive coordinated.
Speaker 3: That's asking too much. So I do think it's better.
Speaker 3: I do think it's a better situation. Well, he has
Speaker 3: coached some offensive line in the past, fairness, but a
Speaker 3: long time ago, A lot of time ago.
Speaker 2: I'll say that I didn't think he could coach the
Speaker 2: offensive line or run the offense. I think it's okay
Speaker 2: to say it.
Speaker 17: I was.
Speaker 2: I mean for Adrian Klem though. To answer Bob's question,
Speaker 2: I think if I were watching any of the coaching
Speaker 2: dynamics during training camp, I was more focused in on
Speaker 2: what Bill O'Brien was like and how he was running
Speaker 2: the offense, and how it seemed to be just a
Speaker 2: more efficient kind of a fluid operation. Obviously they've got
Speaker 2: some personnel things that they're working through, but in terms
Speaker 2: of the decisiveness and the I guess just the way
Speaker 2: practice ran it seemed to be a lot smoother, and
Speaker 2: I was more focused in on that. I don't know
Speaker 2: if you can divine anything from Adrian Clem's you know, demeanor,
Speaker 2: on the sideline or during training camp, but you know,
Speaker 2: totally forthcoming. I wasn't paying attention. It's not something that
Speaker 2: last year was the outlier.
Speaker 5: This coaching setup now just seems like what it's always
Speaker 5: usually been.
Speaker 6: But I think it's a fair question after last year
Speaker 6: to say, do we have good coaches? Is Adrian Klement
Speaker 6: good offensive line coach? Is Troy Brown? A good wide
Speaker 6: receivers coach? Is Ross Douglas, a good runnings You know,
Speaker 6: like these are young guys for the most part, Like
Speaker 6: are they good?
Speaker 5: We don't know, we don't know, But what positions are developing?
Speaker 5: You know, what positions are having players step up and
Speaker 5: play well, and what positions are kind of trying to
Speaker 5: still figure it out and kind of chasing their tail
Speaker 5: a little bit. You know, I think, I mean, I
Speaker 5: look to the defensive side of the ball. I think
Speaker 5: they've gotten good performances from those coaches. You know, there's
Speaker 5: been development at cornerback and you know, maybe not so
Speaker 5: much lately a defensive line. But they've got a group
Speaker 5: of guys that they like and they seem to be
Speaker 5: working with.
Speaker 2: So but you know, it's a good question.
Speaker 3: It's a chicken or the egg one now because I
Speaker 3: think the better players are on defense.
Speaker 6: But we've talked about it on the show, you know,
Speaker 6: like we can't underestimate what the brain drain has done
Speaker 6: to this team.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think it's a good point, and at some
Speaker 2: point the brain has to like re you know, get
Speaker 2: back and right.
Speaker 6: But we've always had this pipeline of people who have
Speaker 6: been in the system and they're ready to take that mantle,
Speaker 6: and now we've been forced to like bring people in
Speaker 6: who may or may not be ready. Who knows, I
Speaker 6: don't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, how do we feel about the way the special
Speaker 2: teams are Oh sorry, how do we feel about the
Speaker 2: way the special teams are being coached? Joe Judge is
Speaker 2: in charge of a special teams.
Speaker 6: Now him, we see we we we have aldi. You know,
Speaker 6: we can hear what he's saying out there because he's
Speaker 6: so no I'm just saying, you know, we have empirical
Speaker 6: evidence with him out there because we can hear him.
Speaker 6: He's usually down on our end in practice, so he's
Speaker 6: close to us, and you know, to me, it's just
Speaker 6: a continuation of way he was when he was the
Speaker 6: coordinator before he left. I mean, you know, I feel
Speaker 6: Okay with that now. Obviously I had the big mishap
Speaker 6: today with Fog, but I feel that the special teams
Speaker 6: will be fine. You know, I'm not worried about it
Speaker 6: because I think he's a good special teams coach.
Speaker 2: Okay, I hope you're right.
Speaker 6: You know, at least you know, he's had experience doing
Speaker 6: it right.
Speaker 2: Sure, and but just you know, with a very small
Speaker 2: sample size of one preseason game, and one of the
Speaker 2: things I was, you know, on my wish list were
Speaker 2: no hiccups and special teams, we had a big hiccup time. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I like the way you said that up
Speaker 2: too hardy, because you know, it's just I realized the play,
Speaker 2: but then I didn't really connect it to the whole
Speaker 2: like thing. And it's like, it's it's it's it's only
Speaker 2: one right now. I'm still the thing.
Speaker 6: It's the first thing I thought of. It's like, oh,
Speaker 6: here we go again.
Speaker 2: And I kind of like, and I don't want Red
Speaker 2: Sox error.
Speaker 5: I don't want to blow it up. But it's the
Speaker 5: same thing with Paul's pick three. You know, it's like,
Speaker 5: you gotta be kidding me. You get an interception on
Speaker 5: the first you know, possession and you.
Speaker 8: Go backwards, you go backwards.
Speaker 5: You know they got negative one yard on that on
Speaker 5: those three plays, Like you know that those things are frustrating.
Speaker 5: I think everybody's got a little PTSD from last season,
Speaker 5: and you know, when those details pop up again, it's
Speaker 5: especially in the first preseason game, it's a little bit disconcerting.
Speaker 2: I want to go back to the passing numbers once again,
Speaker 2: because I can't believe that.
Speaker 6: That that point should every time there's a you know,
Speaker 6: we won't have access to practice like you know anymore,
Speaker 6: but every time one of these writers give you these
Speaker 6: practice stats, that point should be made to them. Well,
Speaker 6: here what it means nothing.
Speaker 2: We just had a glorified practice. Just taking what Bill
Speaker 2: Belichick said. He told you it's like guys would get
Speaker 2: a chancead Well, these guys didn't get a chance to
Speaker 2: practice so much so they played tonight. It's the exact
Speaker 2: opposite of how it works in the regular scenes. I
Speaker 2: could tell you so.
Speaker 3: Twelve or fourteen right for seventy or for seventy nine
Speaker 3: yards right. I can tell you there were a lot
Speaker 3: of days that the quarterbacks had those kinds of numbers
Speaker 3: that would have translated to about that amount of yard.
Speaker 6: Right, because the guy runs by and you know, taps
Speaker 6: him on the butt. It looks like, oh, you know
Speaker 6: he just ran down the field.
Speaker 2: No, he got tackled the one.
Speaker 3: I the one. I really kind of chuckled to myself,
Speaker 3: which I was poor, soacle right, he kind of got
Speaker 3: high load right as he caught a pass to catch.
Speaker 2: In training camp.
Speaker 3: He catches that pass and he turns it up because
Speaker 3: every play they run it for another twenty yards after
Speaker 3: they catch it. It's like, oh, that was nice, little crosser.
Speaker 3: There no guys can tackle, you know, like when every
Speaker 3: play is reliant on breaking tackles, that's a hard way
Speaker 3: to live.
Speaker 5: I kind of felt that way about Thornton's second catch,
Speaker 5: like a four yard It's just like to me, I'm
Speaker 5: like that looked like it went for zero yards. Like
Speaker 5: I was looking at the thing like did that get
Speaker 5: any yards at all?
Speaker 19: Like?
Speaker 2: How do you complete a pass and get no yard?
Speaker 2: I mean it went for.
Speaker 3: Basically every other completion in this game went for for
Speaker 3: five yards or less.
Speaker 2: Yeah, screens and everything else was short. Uh did you
Speaker 2: see anything that made you have any thoughts about c
Speaker 2: J Stroud tonight? He looked overwhelmed.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't think it was fair for him either.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I thought that he had opportunities on his
Speaker 3: pass places to get rid of the ball and didn't
Speaker 3: and then got himself in trouble, which is typical of
Speaker 3: a guy, you know, making his first thing. But you know,
Speaker 3: when you watch the game tonight, I don't think anybody
Speaker 3: would come away saying that Davis Mills is not at
Speaker 3: a far higher level right now than Stroud, But they
Speaker 3: might just look at it and say, new coach, new guy, We're.
Speaker 2: Going to go with him from day one.
Speaker 5: I think my biggest thing was just watching them throughing
Speaker 5: warm ups. I felt like he could he could spin it,
Speaker 5: you know. I just looked like the guys in the
Speaker 5: warm ups.
Speaker 2: Looks like the pick was horrific.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, yeah, he that was just a bad play.
Speaker 2: Right to him through it, right to Mills. You know,
Speaker 2: it's funny having case keenum in at the end of
Speaker 2: the game. He always said, it's it's all almost it's
Speaker 2: not fair. It's not fair to have it. But it
Speaker 2: is a stark contrast between a guy who I got
Speaker 2: nothing to lose out here. But I've been out here
Speaker 2: before and I'm not going to be overwhelmed by screw
Speaker 2: these guys. I'm gonna throw all over these scrubs and
Speaker 2: playing against on Thursday and end. It's like we're talking
Speaker 2: about case Keenum and he still look like see what.
Speaker 3: He did to that four number seventeen he had the
Speaker 3: third It was like third and four down inside the ten.
Speaker 3: It was a quick little like he was in the slot,
Speaker 3: made a quick little jab step, turned out and the
Speaker 3: ball hit him right there.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, knocked him over all. I know, Evan goes
Speaker 2: good ball. It was a perfect role, but it was bullets.
Speaker 3: And then they just ran the same play to the
Speaker 3: other side and the guy was wide open again. It
Speaker 3: was only fourteen that time for a touchdown on fourth down.
Speaker 3: But like that's like it's not going to look the
Speaker 3: same if it's if it's c J. Stroud, he's not
Speaker 3: ready to like make those anticipatory throwers in the red
Speaker 3: zone like that. With with the caveat being I just
Speaker 3: thought I throw Mike's throwing caveats around bringing.
Speaker 2: I said caveat. Everyone was blown. Get the dictionary out.
Speaker 6: Never heard the word caveat.
Speaker 2: Well, caveat because I'm marking I say caveat caveat hashtag caveat,
Speaker 2: but do so you're insisted on kavats medium rare.
Speaker 6: Well, every every once in a while he breaks up
Speaker 6: the Canadian accent, you know, being around.
Speaker 2: So I break out the boss accent. So one of
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick's concerns, or a concern that was maybe thrust
Speaker 2: upon him. I don't know if he actually said anything
Speaker 2: about it was about the enclosure in the north end
Speaker 2: zone and how that might affect the kicking game. Well,
Speaker 2: there was a missed extra point down there by Houston tonight,
Speaker 2: so maybe it won't affect things at all. Maybe sometimes
Speaker 2: guys just missed extra points. Whether or not there's a
Speaker 2: forty foot opening at the end of a stadium.
Speaker 5: Or not, I'd love to I mean, this is like
Speaker 5: something somebody always asked him. They've asked him a few times,
Speaker 5: like has it changed the wind dynamics? Like, I don't know,
Speaker 5: how can you tell? Like I guess you gotta really
Speaker 5: be a punting nerd and a kicking nerd to really sure.
Speaker 6: On some blustery days, it'll be kind of a weird
Speaker 6: stuff coming through that opening.
Speaker 5: Well, it is great for it because it's like an
Speaker 5: opening down below. Now, So it could be almost like
Speaker 5: a gust of specifically.
Speaker 6: I myself famously. You know, in the Giant Stadium, they
Speaker 6: had the garage doors. It was a closed stadium, but
Speaker 6: they had the garage doors that either ended. He would
Speaker 6: tell the guy to open it or close it, depending
Speaker 6: on what the situation was, because there was a draft
Speaker 6: that would come through.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, every little bit and yeah, catching a chill,
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 6: So, I'm sure once they learn the patterns of the stadium, then.
Speaker 5: Be interesting if it becomes like something to avoid, like
Speaker 5: really you need to.
Speaker 6: On Hind the old Hind Stadium. They don't call it
Speaker 6: that anymore, but on the open side, it was just
Speaker 6: terror for kickers.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that I mean in fairness to that kid.
Speaker 3: Tonight is not really a place kicker. He was a
Speaker 3: kickoff specialist in college and they let him do all
Speaker 3: the kicking.
Speaker 2: Tonight like Jake's Baits.
Speaker 5: Is that a real name, Jake's Base?
Speaker 2: Oh No, I don't think it's It's not. That's a typo.
Speaker 2: It's just Jake. Okay, It's like whose name Jake's like
Speaker 2: master Bait from the Toy from the Toy the movie.
Speaker 2: The Toy mentioned that Jake Jake Bates. I did see
Speaker 2: that on its Bates. Can I ask you a question, Fred,
Speaker 2: because you're the ultimate Patriots inside.
Speaker 6: I was fourteen.
Speaker 2: Uh, when the lighthouse is complete, will there be a light?
Speaker 6: Yes, well, there will be lights.
Speaker 2: It's not going to be don't get me, don't get
Speaker 2: him started.
Speaker 8: I want to know.
Speaker 2: I want to know about the lighthouse.
Speaker 6: When you think of a lighthouse, you think of like
Speaker 6: the big lamp that they have at these lighthouses, a
Speaker 6: huge lens, you know, with a light that you can
Speaker 6: see miles away.
Speaker 2: That's what Well, yeah, because that too. But it will
Speaker 2: light up, it will light up, will light up. Will
Speaker 2: it be taller than what it is now?
Speaker 6: No, but they haven't really finished the top with the
Speaker 6: glass and everything.
Speaker 2: When they say twenty two stories tall, as Sarge told
Speaker 2: us tonight, I believe over the PA he was mentioning
Speaker 2: the lighthouse at some point. Is is it a separate
Speaker 2: structure from the outside, because what I see of it,
Speaker 2: it looks like it's about I don't know, thirty or
Speaker 2: forty feet that rises above the rest.
Speaker 8: Of the car.
Speaker 2: Or you've got to measure it from the base. Okay,
Speaker 2: So yeah, is it a separate structure from the twenty
Speaker 2: two stories from the top of the stadium. What are
Speaker 2: we doing killing the last four minutes of the show.
Speaker 2: We're all done talking about this game. I've been killed
Speaker 2: a long time.
Speaker 6: If you run the base of the lighthouse, okay.
Speaker 2: So when you go outside to the north end of
Speaker 2: the end zone, can you enter the lighthouse down there?
Speaker 6: You'll be able to go to the top. There's going
Speaker 6: to be an observation deck.
Speaker 2: Okay. Can anybody go up there?
Speaker 3: A matter of downtown Foxborough heard as a matter of fact,
Speaker 3: and you like this hardy.
Speaker 6: The Patriots of the first NFL team to sponsor an
Speaker 6: LPGA player. Her name is Alexa Pano. She went right
Speaker 6: from high school and got her LPGA card. She's from Massachusettstots. Yeah,
Speaker 6: her father was a season ticket so we sponsored her. Yeah,
Speaker 6: we sponsor her. And one of the things I'm gonna
Speaker 6: do when the lighthouse is finished, I'm gonna do a TikTok.
Speaker 6: I'm gonna bring her up there, just goood with a
Speaker 6: nine iron or a wedge. We're gonna have her, you know,
Speaker 6: hit a nine iron to a target at the fifty
Speaker 6: yard lines. How close she can get TikTok. Fine, why
Speaker 6: did they do anything on TikTok? I don't know.
Speaker 2: Tell me about this social media influencers suite? Yeah, what
Speaker 2: about hot Where is it?
Speaker 6: It was up in the suites today balloons, but it's
Speaker 6: only red level blue. It was only for tonight. It's
Speaker 6: only PRECID. There's no open suites during the season.
Speaker 2: How would one get an invite into these?
Speaker 6: Become a social media influencer?
Speaker 2: Who decides who is an influence?
Speaker 3: That's the whole thing, nobody.
Speaker 6: It depends on how many people you have as followers
Speaker 6: and if.
Speaker 2: You're influential many and I am okay, where was my invite?
Speaker 2: Thank you?
Speaker 3: Thank you guys in the booth? Thanks, No, it's I
Speaker 3: think we all know who.
Speaker 6: It's just it's just preason because you know, but during
Speaker 6: the season there's no open suites. However, we will be
Speaker 6: inviting influencers to games to experience Patriots and hopefully become
Speaker 6: a Patriots.
Speaker 2: To experience Patriots, just experience it. Will you have will
Speaker 2: you have any say in the decision making processes to what?
Speaker 6: I have enoughhing to do with it? All I do
Speaker 6: is to prove the budget. Barking up the wrong tree
Speaker 6: I don't know any of these people.
Speaker 2: Are we getting the wrap sign mercifully?
Speaker 6: Okay?
Speaker 4: Good?
