  Speaker 3: want to just looked up like one of those mormits.

• 0:42
  Speaker 3: My dad and I both listen to the podcast, and
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: our washer just broke down. He's thinking of buying another
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: brand besides Speed Queen. Please convince him that Speed Queen
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: is worth the extra charge.
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: I just got a Samsung and I'm very very happy
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: with it.
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: So why did she get to speak Queen?
• 0:56
  Speaker 4: I don't want to speak Queen.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: Why you just have to book orders in it every
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: time you want to use it?

• 1:12
  Speaker 4: No, you know, he's sort of like a three toad slot,
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: isn't there. He kind of battles around really looking forward
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: to the start of the season. I have no real
• 1:20

  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, that's got nineties. Like someone threw up
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: on a coat kind of look.
• 2:16
  Speaker 6: Oh yeah, I'm.
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: Not insulting your offsulting style. Threw up style that I
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: grew up with. I'm insulting myself. Like you guys were like, well,
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: you weren't really in on the bloodsort that. Yeah, if
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: you had to live it, you wouldn't be in on
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: and either it's just nostalgic to you.
• 2:33
  Speaker 7: Right, It's like I think it's cool, and I'm a
• 2:36
  Speaker 7: nineties kid, so.
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: It wasn't so cool when you had to actually wear it.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: You've got the name on that.
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: Ironically, did you should.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Do that with like youth sports, you'd have like your
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: jacket when you put your name on the side with
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: your number and you get patches and stuff when you
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: go to tournaments and things of that nature.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: I didn't get the patches part.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a hockey name, all the patches on your.
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: Back, name and number, Paul capped, oh caps, Oh yeah,
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: game captain or.
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: Permanent, permanent, depending on what team it was.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: Actually if the quarterback is the captain, usually yeah, that
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: is true.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: I made the varsity tennis team as a freshman, so
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: I got my jacket, went to a dance and it
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: got stolen who wants my jacket with my name on it?
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: Like you're going to say, who wants a jacket?
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, you know, it was like the same one.
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: It was the same style that they gave to all
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: the teams.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: But it's just like a regular school lettermane fact that, Yeah,
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: that's odd that someone would steal it.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: Is a varsity athlete, right, They're like, you're not, well,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: it was.
• 3:35
  Speaker 7: Kind of so.
• 3:36
  Speaker 6: When I was in high school, the boys soccer team
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: won States almost every single year, so it was like
• 3:41
  Speaker 6: a big thing to be able to wear one of
• 3:43
  Speaker 6: the boys.
• 3:43
  Speaker 7: Jackets to the game. And if you got their varsity jacket.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: And I did see anyone wearing my jacket. I don't
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: know what they did with it. I think they were
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: just with me.
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: That's what nailed it. It was a girl, it wasn't.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: I think they just threw it away wanted to be Freddy's.
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: Maybe he just left it like behind the couch and
• 4:01
  Speaker 6: it fell and you forgot it.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: No, he wouldn't forget it.
• 4:05
  Speaker 6: It was And I was in college and we would
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: walk to parties in the winter and be freezing, so
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: then we would stash our coat somewhere where it wouldn't
• 4:13
  Speaker 6: get stolen after. So it's like after the party, you're
• 4:16
  Speaker 6: hammered and you're like going under the guy's couch.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: To listen, listen under his young people listening. If you're
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: out high school?
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: One I thought thought we were still in high school
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: walking away.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: If you're out there, If you're out there, I'm going
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: to find you eventually. And cousin, I want that jacket back,
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: all right?
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: So was that a big thing in high school? Though?
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: The girls like who who was wearing? Whose jacket? Stuff?
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: I wore?
• 4:43
  Speaker 7: Curtis Pereira's, Oh, would get.
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: Wearing Curtis, I have curisky Tuscadero.
• 4:53
  Speaker 7: No, I don't think so it wasn't a big gum chore.
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: All right, let's let's talk football here.
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: I mean, it is the opener.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we've got the Raiders coming up on Thursday. And
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: I know he did like this press conference or this
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: conversation yesterday Stefan Diggs. But besides all that, are we
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: not excited enough that we have Stefan Diggs on this
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: team and that he is gonna hopefully be Drake May's
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: number one guy?
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: I'm excited.
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: You excited enough?
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: I'm excited.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: It just seems like all I think we've kind of
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: like downplayed it because we're afraid, like is he gonna play?
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: Is he not gonna play?
• 5:32
  Speaker 7: This is why we can't have night.
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that ended on July twenty, but.
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: I think I would. I think we should be more
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: excited about the fact that Stefan Diggs is going to
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: be out there.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: I think you're right, Fred, I mean, I know what
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: you're getting at it. It seems like we spend more time
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: kind of like wondering if there's controversy going.
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: On, and just you know.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: I mean, I've tried to bring it up a lot
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: that I thought on the field, he looks really good.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: I don't know how close he is to the old
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Steffan Diggs and what that might have looked like on
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: the field, but from what I've seen from this wide
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: receiver core over the six seasons that I've watched it,
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: he looks pretty good. He looks like the best receiver
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: they've had in a long gun, and.
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: I think he should make everyone else. I think you
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: should make Hunter Henry better. I think you should make
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: the guys that we watched last year a little bit better.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: I think he helps the offense in general.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: Maybe it definitely should.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: To an extent that we didn't see last year. No
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: one on this team that was here last year could
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: do what he's gonna hopefully do this year, you know,
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: And so I just think it's been downplayed because we're
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: kind of holding our breath a little bit.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I mean, and he's coming off and.
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: They have a legitimate receiver for the first time in
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: five years.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's the bottom line for me. I
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: think what I've just enjoyed is it's easy to say
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: a guy's really good, but when you watch him in practice,
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: you start to see what the actual nuances are are
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: of his game. And I think it was Matt Collins
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: talking about just the way he tempos routes and he
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: slows down and he just he kind of has a
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: weird style that's hard for defensive backs to kind of
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: get a good read on, and it helps him be
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: a master terrific.
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: He seems to have a good sense of that and
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: how to get open, how to get open based on
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: what he's seeing on the field.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: And I still think when we saw him in some
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: of those early team drills in Minnesota that it looked
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: like he decided, all right, I'll turn it around for
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: a little bit, you know here in the preseason and
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: you know, just see how things are feeling because just
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: was uncoverable there and you know those those are drills,
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: it's not real. But I just I feel like there's
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: a good chance he comes out of the gate and
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: it's just it's really good right out of the gate
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: immediately there there's a connection there and he's the engine
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: to the offense and the gotta have it moments.
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah. So, I mean I was listening to what he
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: was having to say yesterday and you know, having to
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: do with Tom and Phil from NBC Sports, you know,
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: but all that aside, I'm thinking to myself, Stefan Diggs
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: is the new England Patriot and Drake May is going
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: to be throwing to him. And I know when we
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: signed him it was a big but like it seems
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: to have like really tapered off, and I think we
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: need to be a little bit more excited about that.
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: That's just me.
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: I know Paul doesn't care the message from well, I
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: just I don't. I don't really know where that I'm
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: not gonna get into the hole I was rated or
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: not rated, Like, I feel like people are properly excited
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: that they have a legitimate everything. Mike' said, they have
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: a guy who can get open. He's a great road runner,
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: always has been. They haven't had this, they haven't had
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: I don't know what the proper level of excitement is to,
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: you know, to satisfy your needs. But I think everybody
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: was recognizing the wide receiver room is better because Stefan
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: Diggs is here.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: But right, I agree with that. But like when I hear,
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: you know, people on your shows and other shows talk
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: about who they think, what's you know, what they think
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: is going to happen in the game, who they think
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: is going to win, It's like Diggs is an afterthought.
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: It's like, you know, to me yesterday when I was
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: given basically Digs, Well, I know.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: It's a different situation. But when Randy Moss didn't really
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: practice all summer, did you feel like we were they
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: were sleeping on him a little?
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: It's a good point. We had no I mean, we
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: saw in practice the difference of Randy Moss, but then
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: we didn't see him for the whole summer.
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: No one knew what we were going to get for.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: We didn't know that was going to be like that.
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: That would be like if Gonzales just played on on
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: Sunday and passes right. Seriously, That's that's how little we
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: saw of Randy Moss in training camp.
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I hear your point though, but I just think
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: it's you know, it's hard because they've limited him a
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: little bit, and you know he hasn't been out there
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: every team period and you know, so you've only seen
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: him in little little burst. But I understand what you're saying.
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: My only question with Diggs is not about his availability.
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: It's not about his ability to run routes and all
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: that stuff. You're going to get the digs of the
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: last two or three years. Are you going to get
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: like a flashback digs of this big play guy who's
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: you know, making big plays down the field, stretching the field.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: I don't. I don't think you're going to get that one.
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: I think you're going to get the one of you know,
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: the high volume, low yard with that. Yeah, i'd say,
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: like I said, it's a better receiver than they've.
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: Had for forever.
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, since Edelman retired.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, on like one knee too, Like yeah.
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: I wouldn't even say since nineteen, you know whatever, it
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: was twenty Like nineteen was the last time he was
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: a semblance of himself. Yeah, well it's twenty five. That's
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: a long time ago.
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: So I just want to throw that out there and
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: see if anyone agrees with me that, like, oh, yeah,
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: we've got Stefan Diggs. Oh yeah, hell yeah, we've got
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: Steffan Diggs. Let's go about that, Okay.
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: Like that's the part I would they have Stefan Diggs.
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: I think everybody's talking about him all the time. I
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: don't know what you think Stefan Diggs is going to be.
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: Well, I feel like I think he's going to be
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: a thousand yard receiver.
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: Right, that's what I I kind of agree with Frans Great,
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: but he's a fifteen hundred yard receiver in his career
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: and now he's a thousand yard.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: On this team. I'll take that. I'm excited about that
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: me too.
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: I just don't know what. Maybe it's not as properly excited.
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: Like you're ready to poo poo it unless he has
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: fifteen hundred yard.
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: I'm poo pooing you thinking that no one cares. I
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: think that's all anybody talks about.
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: I think that some members of the media are like
• 11:00
  Speaker 6: trying to temper people's expectations to Like I've experienced this myself.
• 11:05
  Speaker 6: People have in the media have asked me how's Digs been,
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: and I say, he's wonderful to work with. Everything people
• 11:12
  Speaker 6: have told me about him being like a drama, like
• 11:15
  Speaker 6: one of those elite wide receiver mentalities, I just haven't
• 11:18
  Speaker 6: seen it personally. He showed up to more community events
• 11:22
  Speaker 6: with Donna during the preseason than anyone on this team,
• 11:25
  Speaker 6: including veterans, and I was just expressing that, like, I've
• 11:29
  Speaker 6: been super pleasantly surprised he's great to work with, and
• 11:32
  Speaker 6: everyone's like, oh, well, yeah, there's a honeymoon period, like
• 11:35
  Speaker 6: oh well, just wait, just wait, And I'm like, why
• 11:38
  Speaker 6: can't we just be like, oh cool, that's really great
• 11:40
  Speaker 6: that he seems to be a good guy off the
• 11:42
  Speaker 6: field and kind of just defying people's expectations that they
• 11:46
  Speaker 6: had of him coming in.
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so so is Alex properly excited?
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: Good?
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: I like him.
• 11:54
  Speaker 7: I think he's great.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: I like him too.
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: I was.
• 12:00
  Speaker 7: It's not about liking him, it's just like, no, I'm
• 12:03
  Speaker 7: fired up.
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't really care about.
• 12:05
  Speaker 7: It, just looks different when he's running around.
• 12:08
  Speaker 6: His ability to change direction, change speed, and how smooth he.
• 12:12
  Speaker 7: Makes it look like. It's it's really special.
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: To watch totally.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: It's not something where, yeah, he's like Trayvon Henderson. He's
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: just faster than everybody else and he's strong and there's
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: some nuance to that. But you watching Stefan Diggs in practice,
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: it would be hard, I think to be Maybe it's
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: why he wasn't drafted high. Like it's just there's such
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: a subtleness to what makes him so good. And we
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: saw it time and time again with Josh Allen and
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: third down and the windows like that, and it's just
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: right there and he get that two feet in and
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: first down keep going. I hope those are the kind
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: of places because that, to me, fred is what will
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: make the biggest difference for Drake is just having that
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: guy that isn't easy to defend and gives defenses something
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: to think about, even if it's not as much as
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: it once was. It's going to help guys like Pop Douglas.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: It's going to help guys hopefully you know, like Booty
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: and Hollands on the outside, and hopefully open things up
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: in the middle a little bit.
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 13:01
  Speaker 8: Uh.
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: So the first practice participation report came out yesterday, very small, thankfully,
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: although Gonzo was on it as did not participate, So
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: he ain't playing. I don't think that's just my take,
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: but he's not playing. Efton Chisholm popped up on it
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: with a knee and he put, you know, somewhat participated,
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: not full participation.
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: But oh I thought he was full.
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: Oh no, you're right, Yes he was full, but he.
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: Was with the next knee injury Minnesota.
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he was up there with full.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And then he's just a new guy at the
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: cornerback that they acquired. Got a concussion, Yeah, like two injuries.
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: Somehow maybe, yeah, I shouldn't say somehow. No, did he
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: come after the Yeah, he came after the preseason game. Yes,
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: he must have gotten that practice edition. What you guys
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: are doing out there?
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: So according to that sheet of paper, Patriots are in
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: pretty good shape healthwise.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, Gonzales is a big piece. Yeah, but overall,
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: you get out of training camp without one of those
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: catastrophic lost somebody for the season kind of injuries.
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: Well, and that's the thing is, I don't know, if
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: you look around the league a little bit because all
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: the injury reports always pop up, you know, this time
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: of year, and they're all really small because anybody who
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: got a catastrophic injury is on ir right, They're out
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: there not on the reports, right, And the guys that are,
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: you know, obviously you're just dealing with a couple of injury.
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: You know, you're going to start the season relatively healthy. Interestingly,
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: like Sean Slater as an example for the charges catastrophic
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: injury for LA. Yeah, but he's not going to be
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: on their injury reports.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: I would be interesting to do a study where you
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: just went the average number of players on the injury
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: report by week and you could track it. What's it
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: look like in week one? You know, how do those
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: injury reports? Is there like a spike at a certain
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: point or is it just kind of continually going up
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: as the attrition adds up.
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: I didn't pretend to see all of them, but I
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: probably saw maybe four or five. And I don't think
• 14:57
  Speaker 4: I saw more than four or so players any one
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: team listed makes sense.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: I mean, those guys are by November, they're like everybody's
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: dealing something.
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: Well, the Patriots, you know, we end up with like
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: fifteen guys on the report by November yep. So everybody's
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: dealing with something.
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: Yep, including us yep.
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: So that came out Sciatica just putting all that junk
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: out in the driveway.
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: Yet you slip the disc today, Obviously they'll be out
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: there practicing in shells. Yesterday was the one day they'll
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: they'll be in pads. So they'll be in shells today
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: and tomorrow and you'll be out there for.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll go to that and yeah, we'll go out
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: tomorrow for sure, and we'll see. Yeah. Like I said yesterday,
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: we talked to Rabel afterwards, So I mean, well, no
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: afternoon tomorrow, really good chance. If Gonzal is probably not
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: going to play, I would the way Mike Rable has
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: been upfront with us, I would guess that he's probably
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: going to just tell you. So, yeah, it's a loss,
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: and hopefully they can get them back. I mean, it's
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: that seems like it's asking a lot. We haven't seen
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: him in over a month now, at saying oh we
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: can't play this Sunday, but hopefully he can play in
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: ten days. That still seems maybe asking a lot, but
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: maybe he's able to get back out there next week
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: and get out there in Miami.
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he and Roman Holiday, can you know, get on
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: the phone and talk.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: About things tissue muscle injuries.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that stinks for the Red Sox and for me oblique. Yeah,
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: it's excited anyway. All right, so back to football. All right,
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: So we've got getting excited about Diggs. Yes, except football.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: I'm just trying to make sure I show it a
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: proper level. I don't want to get chest high. You know,
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: Mike's a defense guy, so he doesn't really get as
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: excited about offense. And no, plus he doesn't like I
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: like tackling.
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: Healthy team going into Week one. As you know, like
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: Paul said, most teams are who do you think is
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: going to be the guy on defense, Mike, since you're
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: the defensive guy that will be leading the way tomorrow,
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: I mean on Sunday, is it Splaine?
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean I think generally it's it's it's him.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: I would hope that maybe it's Harold Landry or Chase
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: on like just getting after Joey Smith and putting pressure
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: on him. But as I've been telling everybody who doesn't
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: follow the Patriots all that closely, and maybe they just
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: turn in for week one, I'd say, just be ready
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: for number fourteen in the middle of the defense, because
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: it just looks different and certainly is like a blogger
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: guy who spent so much time with people getting kind
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: of frustrated with defenses in the past, I would say,
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: like just the speed of the defenses. I think that's
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: been a theme over the last ten years or so.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: There was always a desire to find that sideline to
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: sideline middle linebacker. I mean, you know, just Devin Lloyd
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: pops into my head, even as recently as a few
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: years ago, talking about just trying to get faster at
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: that position. And I think you've really seen this year
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: that this is a this is a totally different kind
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: of a defense. And you know, how is Christian Ellis
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: going to fit in too? I was going back watching
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: a little bit of some of the games last year
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: and just you know, seeing him go in when Jawan
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: Bentley went out I think in Week two, I mean
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: he got thrust right into the fire and remembering his
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: journey of really being a special teams guy. Watched a
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: little of the Eagles America's game last night. They talked
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: to Zach Bond, who was kind of the poster child
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: for making a jump from special teams too. I mean,
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: that's an enormous jump that Zach Bond made. But I
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: just want those two guys I think in the middle's
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: gonna be most visible, making a lot of the plays,
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: making a lot of the tackles and hopefully impact plays
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: behind the line of scrimmage, plays on the ball. Think
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: if Splain and Ellis are making those kind of plays,
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: then it'll it'll bold really well for the defense.
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: What part of uh Gino's game do the Patriots have
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: to be most aware of? It's the short game? Is
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: it taking shots down field? Is it?
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: I just haven't. I mean, this is I haven't. That's
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: a good question. Like my first thought is I'm so
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: concerned about Rock Bauers and Jacoby Myers that maybe you're
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: sleeping on Dante Thornton Amari Cooper, who's back there now
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: as well. I know he's close to the end, but
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: still I think he's a guy who can still play
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: a little bit. And Trey Turner, those guys with the
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: speed the ball downfield. And I know last year was
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: some blown coverages here with Seattle that Gino hit on,
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: But I.
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: Just don't think you can give up Big Tucker's the
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: guy that he plays so like to your point, like,
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: you know, get him downfield. Trey Tucker can get down
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: the field and you have a couple. I think you
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: rolling the dice a little bit with your safeties. Yeah,
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: So I don't think the Raiders are going to come
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: bombs away. I think I talked about this yesterday. I
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: would be very surprised if Pete Carroll didn't want to
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: come out and establish the run. I think that helps
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: the Patriots, even if they're able to do it, because
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: I think he keeps the score down and doesn't force
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: Drake May to have to get in a shootout. And
• 19:34
  Speaker 4: you know week one it's got to be all on
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: the offense right away. Well, I don't think it'll have
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: to be. I think you can win this game sort
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: of in the low twenties, and I think that's ideal
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: for where the Patriots are right now. You don't want
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: to have to have a thirty four to thirty one win.
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: I mean, you'll take a win no matter how you
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: get it, obviously, and I'd probably be more excited about
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: a thirty four to thirty one win than I would.
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: But don't you think doing that lower Caro is helping
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: the Patriots.
• 19:57
  Speaker 4: I just literally just said that, So why does the
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: heat wouldn't he test? That's what he wants to do.
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: He wants to run the ball.
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: I think he wants to win the game, and he.
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: Wants to do that by running the ball. That's how
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: he plays. That's what Marshawn Lynch and the whole let
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: Russ Cook thing in Seattle. That's what he's going on of.
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: He wants to run the ball. That's how he wants
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: to win games. He's won a lot of games. I
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: don't know doing that. And the Patriots biggest weakness on
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: paper on the defense is run defense. So it's not
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: like it's a dumb theory.
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: I'll be surprised if they don't test the Patriots early downfield.
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: I'd be shocked if they stop going bombs away.
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't mean like every other I mean, but.
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: They might throw one pass like twenty five yards downfield
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: in the whole game, but it'll be Trey Tucker. That's
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: the guy that they want to get.
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: I disagree with that.
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: I don't think that that's the way that Gino Smith plays.
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: I don't think he's a downfield passer.
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: I think he's more of an under mean, if Pete Carroll,
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: what do you.
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: I just have you watched Pete Carroll coach at all?
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: Huh? Like I haven't watched him coach this team.
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: Okay, so I haven't either. So you seem to know
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: what they're going to do. I don't. I just assume
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: he's going to do what Pete Carroll has done in
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: his other teams. But I haven't seen him coach the Raiders.
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: I mean, they did draft a running back with the
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: sixth overall pick. The guy likes to run the ball.
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: I mean, I'm just making an assumption. I might be wrong.
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: I've never seen him coach the Raiders.
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: But the attention paid on genty opens things. I just
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: think keep a straight face. I just think he's crazy
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: if he doesn't, if he doesn't stretch the Patriots and
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: try to test.
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: Why where's the strength of the Patriots defense? Is the secondary?
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: I don't even know that it's supposed to be the secondary.
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: That's why everybody's.
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: Beating me over the head with all you The linebackers
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: are thin, the defensive line.
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: Is secondary is supposed to be good? Is because of Gonzales.
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: Yes, I understand the missing Gonzales, but there's still the
• 21:42
  Speaker 4: strength is in the secondary. How do you According to
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: all of the experts that have talked to me, I'd like.
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: To see it first.
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: And if I'm there, very thin at linebacker and they're
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: very small up front, so run the ball.
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: I don't know, man, I I would test it.
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: I would not Pete Carroll. I mean, I think you
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: us change. You're going a rookie safety back there and
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: Jas and maybe Alex Austin. I just you asked me
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: what scares me the most. It's that I do think
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: that Paul's.
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: Scare me the most. But I would have different safeties playing,
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: but they're not on the roster anymore, so I can't
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: do that.
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: All the more reason for Pete Carroll to test it.
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: That's not how we wants to.
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: Play the stuff that you know. He knows too, but he.
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: Doesn't want to play that way. And Gino Smith certainly
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: doesn't want to throw the ball downfield. He doesn't do that.
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: You certainly didn't do it when Seattle came here last year.
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: He threw for three hundred yards. Was one big play
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: that they blew a coverage on the metcalf. Everything else
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: was j just n across the middle. He had like
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: double digit catches in that game, right, Yeah, fifteen yard incuts,
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: you know, five yard shallow crossers trying to pick plays.
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: Now, you're making me feel better about the Patriots. Not
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: that I mean, I think the Patriot's gonna win, but
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: it's making me feel better if they're not willing to
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: test the Patriots. I agree, without questians all, I hope
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: that's the case. I'm a little worried about Craig Woodson
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: in his first start, and you know, going against the
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: coordinator like Chip Kelly, maybe that changes their approach a
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: little bit. I mean, I think Paul is right. I
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: think both teams are going to want early in the season.
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: Just they're gonna want it on the ball, you know.
• 23:17
  Speaker 4: And I think it's a mistake, don't pull it all
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: on your on your quarterback.
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't.
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: I'm not a scam plan if I were coaching, but
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: I'm not the coach.
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: I don't.
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: I don't really feel bad about the Patriots run defense.
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: I just don't really know what to expect exactly. Like
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: I'm not like worried about it, Like if I had
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: to say, what are you more worried about. I would
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: say it's hard for me to really get worked up
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: about run defense, like you know, like.
• 23:38
  Speaker 4: You can say it's the thing, you can say it
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: well ahead because it doesn't matter right.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, you know, generally speaking, that.
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: Football because they couldn't stop the run, despite the fact
• 23:48
  Speaker 4: that really stopping the run is not that much of
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: an indicator of a team's success.
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: Kenny Clark to help them out with that. Yeah, so,
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: I it's a great question. I mean, look, it's just
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: it's everything in Week one where you just have all
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: these new coaches, these new schemes, these new players. It's
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: all it's a mix of of so much and it's
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: hard to really discern what the attack is going to be.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: All I know is what I've seen from the Patriots
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: this year, And if I was the Raiders, I would
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: be trying to get gente on screens and I would
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: I would have Bowers in the crossas the whole time.
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: And I'm sure that they will do that. That's why
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: it's I just don't want them to sleep on Thornton
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: and Tucker.
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: I think Mike is that's it. I think Mike's game plan.
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: Is it that to me is running the ball by
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: the way genty on screens and yeah, sure, short throws
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: to Bowers. That's basically an extension of the running game.
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: But especially the screens, because I.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: Mean, if I'm reading what people are writing about the
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: Patriots defense this summer, I'm expecting an aggressive defense that
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: you're not going to be able to drop back and
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: launch it. You got to hope that over the course
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: of the beginning of the game that the screens and
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: the short stuff and the running at genty gets the
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: Patriots defense so locked up on that that you know,
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: you got a rookie Craig Woodson who all of a sudden,
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: here goes Trey Tucker right by you, and you know that.
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: To me, you're gonna win a low scoring game. If
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: you can prevent that, then I think you have a
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: chance to. But if you start giving up even just
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: a couple of big plays, I mean you mentioned the
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: big scu Hey, let me the DK metcalf that changed.
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: Let me ask it. Let me ask this question. You're
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: Mike Vrabel. You've got three days, three four days left
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: before the game. Which side of the ball are you
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: most paying attention to? Right? Now for you, for my own,
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: for my own team, for my own team, whose meetings
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: are you attending more m offense?
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: I think you he trust Terrell Williams, and I mean
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: not to say he doesn't trust Josh mctaniels, but I
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: just I think you have to trust your defense, but
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: you have to believe your offense can win the game.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: And that's where I would no matter what happens with
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: our defense, if we score on off points, we're gonna
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: win the game. So I'd lean offense, right.
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: I think he's gonna lean defense. I think he's gonna
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: put his thumbprint on this game more on defense than offense.
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: And let Josh cook Yeah, I mean, what do you think, Paul?
• 25:55
  Speaker 6: I think to go either way because a lot of
• 25:57
  Speaker 6: the guys he brought in on defense are like his guys,
• 26:00
  Speaker 6: So maybe there's that level of comfortability where he's like, Okay,
• 26:04
  Speaker 6: I don't need to spend as much time here because
• 26:06
  Speaker 6: they understand like my system. Yeah, so let me go
• 26:09
  Speaker 6: over here. But I but it could go.
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: No, You're right about his guys, But in doing so,
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: I think he has a vision for this defense, whereas
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: the offense is probably going to be more Josh's vision.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I hear what you're saying, Fred. I
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: just I think that there's more. If I'm a head coach,
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: there's more for me to say. All right, So what
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: are we doing on third down? If they bring Crosby
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: and Butler over here and they're gonna be running stunts
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: off this office side with our two rookies that that
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: are expected to start, You know, that's a big concern
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: to me. You know, how much are we going to
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: play Diggs? Is he ready to go every snap? And
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: we want, you know, which would be good for the offense?
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: I think to have him out there always as a threat.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: How are we going to rotate guys in? Do we
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: need to is is Morgan Moses on a pitch count?
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: Does he Is he going to need to you know,
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: take some snaps off? Or we're gonna have to put
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: in Marcus Bryan in there for a little bit. You know,
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: like all those question how are we gonna justvon? We
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: don't want to put him in a bad position. So
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: I don't know that's to me. I mean maybe that's
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: just how I'm wired. Because the defense, I feel like
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: I trust Robert Splaine, I trust these these veterans that
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: I have to go after it, and it's an aggressive scheme,
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: go attack. Like there's not a lot to say, but
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of in my mind, variables on offense
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: that you need to manage.
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: Do you think this this game will be declared early?
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: Not not who's gonna win or not, but the style
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: of the game.
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: I'm going to say no. I'm going to say it's
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: a weird Week one game where you know there's ebbs
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: and flows, and you know, maybe a weird turnover, and
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: you know there just might be some sloppiness that ever
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: prevents you from really getting a beat on. This is
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: what this game is, right, I mean, maybe it will,
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: but I just expect some weird swings.
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: I totally agree with the Week one stuff that Belichick
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: always talked about, but I do feel both teams are
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: going to want to run the ball. Fred I, if
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: I were I agree with you, I would want to
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: throw the ball. But that's me virtually every game. I think,
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: if I want to try to score points, that's how
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: you do Dan Pastorini. Yeah, but get a lead and
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: then you want to run the ball to put the
• 28:02
  Speaker 4: game away, like do it the other way. So many
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: teams want to come out and take pressure off their quarterback.
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: I think it does the opposite. I think it creates
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: a lot of third and eights for your quarterback that
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: you exactly what you don't want to be in. Whereas
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: you know, nice little play action pass for like seven
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: yards on first down, that's taking the pressure off your quarterback,
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: giving him an easy throw to get ahead of the chains,
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: and then you're you know, making easier conversions on third downs.
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: That's how I think you take pressure off your quarterback.
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: And I think a lot of times teams do it
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: the other way. They try to run the ball and
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: play defense and conservative. Now you're in a low scoring
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: slug fest, and I kind of think it's going to
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: declare to something like that.
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it might be hard to determine, but I'm just
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: interested to see how Drake is different with Josh and
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: his ear and going through stuff with him. It seems
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: like it'll be a very different game experience for Drake,
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: not just because Josh will be in his ear, but
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: having to make calls and a little bit more on
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: his plate. Does it change his style at all? Getting
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: hard at discern, I don't really not sure how you
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: would you excited.
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: This is like, you know, I guess it's like that
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: this every year.
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: But yeah, I get checked up for the start of
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: every season. I absolutely do.
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: But you know, there's so much unknown here. I mean,
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: it's all kind of new.
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: And that's why I felt going through the games this
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: weekend over the whole across the whole league, where it's
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: just so many teams that are evenly matched or have
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: really i mean the Jets and the Steelers like flip
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: flop quarterbacks. You know, there's so many weird things like
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: that going on. It's just it's so hard to make
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: a prediction what's going to happen. I'm like, this is
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: a chemistry experiment.
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: I don't know, it's like the old the old exercise
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: in school when you know you're you're asked to sort
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: of make an argument for two things. You know, make
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: time to shine there, make an argument for the Giants
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: being a playoff.
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: I mean, I've heard I've heard people.
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: Talk about the Giants as being but then at the
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: same time, they have on paper, the most difficult schedule
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: in football, So you know, make an argue and against it.
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: Well that's it. You know, they don't really have the
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: solved their quarterback yet even if Jackson Dart ends up
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: being the starter, you know, so like you could do
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: that with so many.
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: Teams up and down the league. Yeah, yeap. So it's
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: exciting and I love you. Just want to see how
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: it all unfolds.
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: Because as little as I'm interested in divisional matchups like
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: Dallas and Philly, tonight, I'll be glued. At eight o'clock,
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: I'll be you know whatever, A twenty start is it Like,
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: I'll be ready to go have a great match. I
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: can't wait. Yeah, the title Now, I don't know if
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: I'll make it to the second half. I hear that,
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: the second second half.
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: I hear that. All right, So you.
• 30:37
  Speaker 7: Sound like a seven pm coffee.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: Oh we're all excited. Anyone have anything special plan for tonight?
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: Not chows.
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: I don't have anything special plan.
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: Also, I think I might have to get you going.
• 30:53
  Speaker 7: I gave you a little your recipe for you. I
• 30:56
  Speaker 7: wasn't really a small I might have you like right
• 31:00
  Speaker 7: up a rescue.
• 31:02
  Speaker 6: Like ingredients like I need that for the newsletter.
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: I think today it would have been perfect if you
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: could have actually seen me do it. It was literally
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: I know exactly why I was I was starving, and
• 31:13
  Speaker 4: was it all in the house. I was starving. I'm like,
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: there wasn't even any real chipsty like just the tosedos.
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: So I grabbed them and I'm like, I just dumped
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: the whole thing out because I was like, I'm not
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: going to put a handful. I'm just gonna dump the
• 31:30
  Speaker 4: whole thing. And I'm like, I hope we didn't hurt anybody.
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: So and then I'm like looking into refrigerating this like
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: shredded cheese.
• 31:39
  Speaker 7: There you go, even like Mexican.
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: It was, it was, it was. And then I got
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: some salsa and like put like spoonfuls here in there.
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: Tues after school in high school, snack all day long,
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: microwave nachos.
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: I put them in the actual oven, convection regular oven.
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: But like your oven isn't all so a convection oven,
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: I don't think. So there's no button that says convection.
• 32:04
  Speaker 4: I don't think so many are most are now.
• 32:08
  Speaker 7: You just probably don't.
• 32:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, what would be the difference?
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: It circulates air while it's baking, So Mike, so holy Cross.
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: Every once in a while, I don't know if me,
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: if I are finishing each other's sentences.
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: Yet yeah, okay.
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: Air fire too were pretty good with that.
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: A lot of people swear by the air fry.
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: So the air fryer, to me, would not have made
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: enough nachos.
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: For my liking I size cookie.
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: I had a cookie sheet going oh yeah, well listen,
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: and then I made a couple of sandwiches and handleton listen.
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: Eating is a tradition in the Perillo household, and football
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: fans know that traditions matter, turning moments together into something
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: truly epic. There would inspire us to make our masa
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: in tostitos the traditional way, starting with whole corn kernels,
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: no artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives, all to give you
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: that perfect crunch. Discover your next tradition this football season.
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: Head to the store, grab your Tostito's team bag and
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: scan the code for a chance to win epic experiences
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: with the Patriots. Tostito's tradition matters. So yeah, I might.
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: I might pop some tostitos in the oven tonight.
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: I love a good nacho plate. There is just I
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: order one off the appetizer menu a lot at the restaurant.
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: Sometimes I have a restaurant and for my meal I'll.
• 33:29
  Speaker 4: If and I will get nachos a lot, just you know,
• 33:31
  Speaker 4: if we're like, you know, not a fancy place, but
• 33:34
  Speaker 4: just you know, real quick to get an app and
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: we'll pick that nachos better than others.
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: You have to be able to figure out how to
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: get the cheese layered so that it's not all.
• 33:44
  Speaker 7: Making it is the best. I go all.
• 33:47
  Speaker 4: Out, like I didn't do it right then.
• 33:49
  Speaker 6: Now my garden if I don't or show the store
• 33:54
  Speaker 6: because I think actually the pickled ones are the best
• 33:56
  Speaker 6: in the jar for nacho purposes. Yeah, but like stick
• 34:00
  Speaker 6: back exactly and then you just like layer it, you know,
• 34:03
  Speaker 6: like every ingredient.
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: Make your own chips. I'll do that. I'll make my
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: own chips.
• 34:08
  Speaker 6: I've done it with my mom. I've done it with
• 34:11
  Speaker 6: my mom. But it's too much business.
• 34:13
  Speaker 5: It is a lot of bits.
• 34:14
  Speaker 7: But I got a small kitchen.
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: This guy make your own making his own chips.
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: Just take a tortilla, cut it up, fry it up,
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: and some.
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: Fry and I think I've done something. This guy's making
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: his own shop.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: Well, spend some time in California, you know, yeah, the quality.
• 34:30
  Speaker 6: Well, today is a big day because in Hartford Connecticut.
• 34:33
  Speaker 6: It's the Lake Cruise Ahouse sale. I have my friend
• 34:38
  Speaker 6: ground right now, all the stuff on my wish.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, what the great they had a great Dutch
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: of him.
• 34:45
  Speaker 7: A Dutch of it is not when you under the
• 34:48
  Speaker 7: I do.
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: That's the only Dutch of it. I know what a
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: Duch of it is.
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: I do all that to say.
• 34:54
  Speaker 6: My friend just secured a really like heavy bottom, nice
• 34:58
  Speaker 6: casserole dish for me in the color shower.
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: It is a color.
• 35:02
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's like a light, beautiful purple like the outside
• 35:04
  Speaker 6: of a shallotte would be. And uh yeah, so I
• 35:07
  Speaker 6: was looking for an excuse to use it tonight.
• 35:09
  Speaker 7: I didn't know what to make them.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't keep track of all the different kind
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: of Yeah.
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: I was never a big walk pearl. Love it.
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: I love it. And uh sorry I'm dragging this on.
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: But my wife just made this new thing where it's
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: avocado cattage cheese, there's pickles in it cilantro and it's
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: this little salad and it was so California.
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: You are so California though, all right.
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: Natcho Talk eight five five past five hundred is the
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: hotline podcast at Patriots dot Com. Jacket and Arbor says
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: a Paul Wore a TV show, it'd be entitled Curb
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: Your Enthusiast. I'm very excited to see the new England
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: Patriots debut of Stefan Diggs. He's the best receiver to
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: wear a Patriot's uniform in years. He will keep defenses
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: honest by stretching the field and give Drake May a
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: reliable weapon in red zone and third down situations.
• 36:00
  Speaker 4: I don't know about I told you, Fred, that's the
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: way people are thinking. That's okay, Jack and and Arbor,
• 36:06
  Speaker 4: thank you, Okay. People are excited. They haven't really had
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: a top receiver in a long time.
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: I agree. I agree.
• 36:14
  Speaker 4: I'm hearing people talk, you know, like sort of finger
• 36:17
  Speaker 4: wagging the media for not giving the wide receiver group
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: in general enough props. And I keep poo pooing it
• 36:24
  Speaker 4: by saying, what do you got after Diggs?
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, like, okay, so let's talk about it.
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: But that's but that's my point is there's a lot
• 36:31
  Speaker 4: of excitement for Diggs.
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: What should we be expecting from mac Collins.
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: I think he's gonna have a good year. I mean,
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: he's been incredibly productive in the preseason. He's one another
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: one of those kind of X factors to me, and
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: I get Paul's point. I think where I land on
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: all this wide receiver talk is just is there enough
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: there for Drake to improve and to make a push
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: and to compete. I think there is right now. I
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: don't think that you're gonna come out of the season.
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: We just don't know because he no, I agree with me, No,
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: I think there's enough there still.
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: I think that has been eliminated with the sign of
• 37:01
  Speaker 4: Stefan Diggs. Yeah, I agree with Mike.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: You set up Drake to take a step forward. I
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: think that's the best you can do. They still need more.
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: I'd love to see Kyle Williams get out there and
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: see what he can develop into. But going back to
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: your original question, I think Matt Collins will bring a
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: presence on the outside and will be I'm just saying
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: it now. And Raiders, if you're listening, tune.
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: Out right now.
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: But like every first down from the thirty ind they're
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: gonna be a fade to Mac Collins. Like I feel
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: like that's just in Josh's DNA, even going back to
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: his last time where you just knew, like DeVante Parker
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: back then, like here we go, here comes the shots
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: to the end zone. That's what they're gonna do, MATC Collins,
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: they'll probably have a you know, five six touchdowns.
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: I would BET's size, you know, he's.
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he's a different kind of receiver, but I think
• 37:44
  Speaker 4: he takes the boorn role, like that sort of secondary
• 37:47
  Speaker 4: guy that can be productive. Different kind of player. Born
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: is quicker, smaller, you know, in Hollins, I think is
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: a little bit more straight line speed with the size. Yeah,
• 37:57
  Speaker 4: so totally different kind of players, but veteran complimentary piece.
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I just like that he'll bring a
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: presence on the outside. I think it's something they need.
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: Well, Kyle Williams play in this game, Yeah.
• 38:09
  Speaker 4: I think I think so.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: I mean, I know, I didn't expect a lot of
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: people to play. I mean I meant that in like
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: crunch time, but I think a lot of a lot
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: of people will will play, you know, the key on
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: Whites of the world, the Anthony Jennings of the world.
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: You know, I'm most curious about Dougar. Just tell me
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: what what what does that look like? Does he have
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: a role on defense or does he just get like
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: some rotational snaps to you know, get Hawkins or Woodson
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: some time out.
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: All right, A five five past five hundred. Let's go
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: to the phones. We'll start with Sean and Vancouver. What's
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: up Sean?
• 38:41
  Speaker 9: Hey, guys, I'm looking forward to being at the game.
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: I guess so you've been on hold since yesterday.
• 38:49
  Speaker 10: That's great.
• 38:51
  Speaker 9: So I'm excited about Diggs and it's it's looking better
• 38:57
  Speaker 9: than because when he's signed, I thought, Okay, he'll probably
• 39:02
  Speaker 9: be on the pop to start the season, and now
• 39:04
  Speaker 9: he's going he should be ready for Game one, and uh,
• 39:07
  Speaker 9: that's that's really great. One thing, and I don't know
• 39:09
  Speaker 9: if I'm going to be right, but one thing I
• 39:11
  Speaker 9: kind of have a feeling about is Digs little lead
• 39:15
  Speaker 9: in yards, but I think, uh, pop will lead in
• 39:19
  Speaker 9: in receptions. Does that sound crazy to you? I'll let
• 39:22
  Speaker 9: you go so that I know you. You got to hurry,
• 39:23
  Speaker 9: so enjoy it.
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: Okay, I hear what you're saying. But I think that
• 39:29
  Speaker 3: if Diggs leads in yards, he will also be leading
• 39:32
  Speaker 3: in receptions because I don't think his catches are going
• 39:35
  Speaker 3: to be you know, the long form like the old Digs.
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: I think there'll be more of the crossers and shallow stuff,
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: and so in order to get you know, the yards,
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: he's going to need a lot of receptions.
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: I think I generally, I think I generally agree with that.
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: I'd see it more as Edelman and Amadola and you know,
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: can Pop Douglas chip in in key spots as a
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: second kind of slot guy. I think that's a good
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: role for now.
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: When you look at Edelman and Amadola, Adla's probably yards
• 40:05
  Speaker 3: per catch was more than Edelman's, I would.
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: Say, yeah, I mean, I mean was similar, But yeah,
• 40:11
  Speaker 4: I think the volume overall of you know, Edelman's definitely
• 40:14
  Speaker 4: the engine, got to have a moment, but you know,
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: you have a secondary, reliable guy in Pop Douglas that
• 40:20
  Speaker 4: can probably get open pretty quick and you know, give
• 40:22
  Speaker 4: you that quick ball, get it out, quick game stuff
• 40:26
  Speaker 4: that I think will mostly go to Diggs. Yeah, I agree.
• 40:29
  Speaker 4: I think Diggs will lead in both receptions and yards
• 40:32
  Speaker 4: provided that he stays healthy. Obviously a big, big if,
• 40:35
  Speaker 4: but I would be surprised if he's not the the
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: leading target guy, which is going to lead to more catches,
• 40:42
  Speaker 4: more yards.
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: Let's see Brian's in Lowell. What's up Brian? Brian going
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: on Lowell? Phones are down and lowell. All right, maybe
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: try to call back. Eldred's on the phone. What's up? Aldred?
• 41:02
  Speaker 8: Hey, Alex, Fred, Mike, how y'all doing good?
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: Hell?
• 41:05
  Speaker 3: Paul?
• 41:07
  Speaker 8: Hey, hey Paul? You look wrong? Bro? He like throwing
• 41:11
  Speaker 8: it too. Yeah, he little roung with Carol. He likes
• 41:14
  Speaker 8: running it, but that ain't the only way he likes winning.
• 41:17
  Speaker 4: Okay, we'll see.
• 41:18
  Speaker 8: I'm I'm more questioned about the secondary without Gunzo. And
• 41:25
  Speaker 8: if I think Evan said yesterday that Dante had a good,
• 41:29
  Speaker 8: good camp with them, that's what That's the other reason
• 41:32
  Speaker 8: I wanted. But everybody passed on. I'm just going about
• 41:35
  Speaker 8: to speak because he got to work running Brunning by
• 41:37
  Speaker 8: the secondary Donte Thornton for the Raiders. That's what I'm worried.
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, all right, I'll let you go with that.
• 41:46
  Speaker 3: All right, thanks Aldred? All right, and he give us
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: a prediction I should have asked. All right, Now let's
• 41:53
  Speaker 3: go to Christian in l A.
• 41:57
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 41:57
  Speaker 10: Hey you guys, Hey, you know, I'm not so certain
• 42:00
  Speaker 10: why you While you guys are so excited like it
• 42:03
  Speaker 10: so sort of sunshine and rainbows, I'm actually worried. We
• 42:07
  Speaker 10: we are going into week number one, with the offensive
• 42:11
  Speaker 10: line that is unproven and untested, with a guy on
• 42:14
  Speaker 10: the left who's got kind of short arms. That's when
• 42:17
  Speaker 10: against Mac Tarby, Max Crubbs is gonna line up, line
• 42:19
  Speaker 10: up and go at him all day. We have a
• 42:22
  Speaker 10: quarterback who forgive me for saying patriot Land is unproven
• 42:27
  Speaker 10: and unknown. Yet it's easy for a guy who has
• 42:30
  Speaker 10: some decent skills and no one has Taypon to get
• 42:33
  Speaker 10: in for four or five games at the end of
• 42:34
  Speaker 10: the season and do decently. We have not seen him
• 42:38
  Speaker 10: do decently in our our preseason in practice, I haven't
• 42:42
  Speaker 10: heard anything super positive about Drake MAYBERSI oh yeah, he's
• 42:46
  Speaker 10: really comfortable and he looks like we have a wide
• 42:48
  Speaker 10: receiving number one who could possibly be washed up, a
• 42:53
  Speaker 10: wide receiving number two.
• 42:54
  Speaker 4: I don't watch Christian. Can I just ask you something
• 42:57
  Speaker 4: and also stop for Kenny. Would would you feel better
• 43:02
  Speaker 4: if you were hearing stuff that was positive or would
• 43:05
  Speaker 4: you wait until you saw it yourself.
• 43:10
  Speaker 10: Hearing something like?
• 43:11
  Speaker 4: You know, see, I completely disregard people when they tell
• 43:13
  Speaker 4: me stuff like that if I haven't seen it, Like
• 43:17
  Speaker 4: I'm going to watch a game, you know, like I'm sorry,
• 43:21
  Speaker 4: I just don't necessarily believe. Like if I were to
• 43:25
  Speaker 4: believe what I'm hearing from ESPN about Cleveland all year,
• 43:29
  Speaker 4: I would think should Do a Sanders is on the
• 43:30
  Speaker 4: verge of a Pro Bowl season, But yet he's listed
• 43:33
  Speaker 4: at like fourth on the depth chart by the people
• 43:36
  Speaker 4: that are actually doing the stuff for Cleveland. So it
• 43:39
  Speaker 4: doesn't make me feel better if I'm a should Do
• 43:41
  Speaker 4: a Sanders fan that ESPN is saying all these wonderful
• 43:43
  Speaker 4: things about shed with Sanders when Cleveland doesn't think he's
• 43:46
  Speaker 4: better than any of the guys on their office. Dylan
• 43:49
  Speaker 4: Gabriel is ahead of them on the depth chart, and
• 43:51
  Speaker 4: I don't think that much of Dylan Gabriel. So I
• 43:55
  Speaker 4: don't know why, like someone saying something would affect your ination.
• 43:59
  Speaker 4: And I think you're being ingenuous because I think if
• 44:01
  Speaker 4: we were saying all these nice things, you'd be saying
• 44:03
  Speaker 4: that we're just doing sunshine and rainbows and trying to
• 44:06
  Speaker 4: put lipstick on a page.
• 44:07
  Speaker 3: But I think Christian, I understand that a lot of
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: this is unknown, but that's kind of what makes me excited.
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: It's like I don't know about the intrigue, right.
• 44:16
  Speaker 10: Right, You guys don't worry that our number one cornerback
• 44:20
  Speaker 10: it's not going to be there.
• 44:21
  Speaker 4: Of course we're are so worried.
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: So why all the false bravado.
• 44:28
  Speaker 4: Where's the false bravado coming.
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: It's not like we're sitting up here, go Patriots by
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: fifth fifty.
• 44:33
  Speaker 4: That would be false. Come on, this game could go away.
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's ridiculous. I'm walking out right now.
• 44:39
  Speaker 4: All right, Mike, I don't blame you, Mike, Mike, I
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: don't blame you at all.
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: To the locker room holy cross. All right.
• 44:46
  Speaker 4: No, in all seriousness, this game is a toss up game.
• 44:50
  Speaker 4: We've been talking all week that it was like two
• 44:52
  Speaker 4: and a half point spread. I think right now, let
• 44:55
  Speaker 4: a little cat out of the bag for this will
• 44:56
  Speaker 4: make you feel better. It's up to three. Okay, the
• 44:59
  Speaker 4: line move from two and a half to three. That
• 45:01
  Speaker 4: means people are betting the Patriots right and wanting to
• 45:03
  Speaker 4: just stop you before you did something right to hurt yourself.
• 45:08
  Speaker 4: Where's the money money's coming in? So this game could
• 45:12
  Speaker 4: go either way. I think ESPN's FPI thing that does
• 45:16
  Speaker 4: the game says the Patriots have a fifty two percent
• 45:18
  Speaker 4: chance of winning. I like it, so like take it.
• 45:21
  Speaker 4: That's a coin for so No, there's no false bravado. No,
• 45:24
  Speaker 4: that's just trolling. He's like, no one is sitting here
• 45:26
  Speaker 4: saying Patriots forty eight to eleven.
• 45:29
  Speaker 3: Like that's false perv. That's why I let him go.
• 45:32
  Speaker 4: This could go This game could go either way. It
• 45:34
  Speaker 4: was the call with some of us on this show
• 45:37
  Speaker 4: are not even picking the Patriots to win? Is that right?
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: Well we'll find out around one thirty who that might be.
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: All right, I'm gonna take a break. Christian's phone call
• 45:48

• 48:06
  Speaker 2: Your thoughts on the Major's defense from what you've studied
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: and the challenges that they want?
• 48:11
  Speaker 11: Yeah, I think you know, first off, you know, with
• 48:13
  Speaker 11: what coach Carroll has done and in this league, they've
• 48:15
  Speaker 11: had some great differences. And obviously his scheme and obviously
• 48:19
  Speaker 11: the one you know, crowdy you know, jumps out on tape.
• 48:21
  Speaker 11: And they got some veteran some veteran linebackers, some guys
• 48:24
  Speaker 11: that we're playing, play hard and you know, come up
• 48:26
  Speaker 11: and hit you. And I think that they do, they're
• 48:29
  Speaker 11: they're good at what they do. I think you're gonna know,
• 48:32
  Speaker 11: they're gonna, you know, bring it every play. And I
• 48:34
  Speaker 11: think for us, we just gotta stay ahead of the
• 48:37
  Speaker 11: chains and uh try to do our best to you know,
• 48:39
  Speaker 11: get off to a good start and then uh, like
• 48:41
  Speaker 11: I said, just follow our keys and and uh, you.
• 48:43
  Speaker 15: Know, No ninety eight.
• 48:44
  Speaker 11: You know he's a great player in this league. Plays hard,
• 48:46
  Speaker 11: he know, plays a lot of effort. And they got
• 48:48
  Speaker 11: a veteran, you know, a couple veteran safeties, so who's
• 48:51
  Speaker 11: made some plays and good ball skills. So we gotta
• 48:54
  Speaker 11: you gotta be on our game. It's gonna be out
• 48:55
  Speaker 11: there in your week one, you know, turn at home.
• 48:57
  Speaker 11: So I'm excited and looking forward to it.
• 48:59
  Speaker 3: It comes to Crosby.
• 49:01
  Speaker 16: A lot of people look at the offensive line and
• 49:03
  Speaker 16: how they handle them, but how can the rest of
• 49:06
  Speaker 16: the offense maybe neutralize what.
• 49:08
  Speaker 15: He's able to do on Yeah, no doubt.
• 49:10
  Speaker 11: I think it's hard to me, you know, getting the
• 49:12
  Speaker 11: ball out on time, you know, not holding it, you know,
• 49:14
  Speaker 11: no one, don't.
• 49:14
  Speaker 15: You know bypass? You know, the first guy open, I
• 49:16
  Speaker 15: see the open, trying to hunt a deeper one.
• 49:19
  Speaker 11: You'll help, you know different, you know, the running backs
• 49:21
  Speaker 11: can help, you know, in the protection. You know, I
• 49:23
  Speaker 11: think little things like that, and I think scheme.
• 49:25
  Speaker 15: I think me just getting us.
• 49:26
  Speaker 11: In the right plays and and knowing when he's one
• 49:28
  Speaker 11: on one and knowing when you know we have help
• 49:29
  Speaker 11: to him and I think, uh, from there, just like
• 49:32
  Speaker 11: I said, for our keys and know if it's emphasis
• 49:33
  Speaker 11: for us this week, then just you'll follow that and
• 49:37
  Speaker 11: stay true to it.
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 49:38
  Speaker 6: Are you comfortable enough getting the new office, the new
• 49:42
  Speaker 6: offense to.
• 49:43
  Speaker 4: Be able to make those kind of quick freeds and
• 49:45
  Speaker 4: get rid of love quickly?
• 49:47
  Speaker 7: I you that comfortable with you know the offense and
• 49:52
  Speaker 7: being able to read the defense.
• 49:54
  Speaker 15: What's gonna fit es ma'am.
• 49:55
  Speaker 11: Yeah, I think that's that's part of what we you know,
• 49:57
  Speaker 11: watch film who as part of what we come out
• 49:58
  Speaker 11: here and practice for is you know, no one, no
• 50:02
  Speaker 11: one checkdowns and no one hey you know my first look.
• 50:04
  Speaker 11: If they're giving it to me, you'll take it. And
• 50:07
  Speaker 11: I think that's the best part of playing quarterback in
• 50:08
  Speaker 11: this league. Find completions and I feel confident in myself.
• 50:11
  Speaker 11: I feel like at times last year when I got
• 50:13
  Speaker 11: the ball out on time and you've got the ball
• 50:15
  Speaker 11: to the right guy, we moved the ball well. So
• 50:17
  Speaker 11: I think just trying to you know, start off this
• 50:18
  Speaker 11: season with that mindset and like I said, stay ahead
• 50:21
  Speaker 11: of the chains and do my part and you'll find
• 50:23
  Speaker 11: completions and not holding the.
• 50:24
  Speaker 4: Ball like getting stuffin famous this off season and hop
• 50:28
  Speaker 4: sent of him just to start.
• 50:30
  Speaker 11: It's been an awesome to bomb with such a high level player.
• 50:33
  Speaker 11: I think it's you know, continue to show us as
• 50:36
  Speaker 11: a game, you know, game weeknd and game day comes
• 50:38
  Speaker 11: close from closer, the kind of how much he's elevating
• 50:40
  Speaker 11: his game and elevating.
• 50:41
  Speaker 15: His practice style.
• 50:42
  Speaker 11: So you know, it's I'm looking forward to green out
• 50:44
  Speaker 11: there with him on Sunday, and I think you'll see, uh,
• 50:48
  Speaker 11: you know, a good energy from from Steph and I'm
• 50:49
  Speaker 11: looking forward to get him the rock and and and
• 50:53
  Speaker 11: let him do his thing.
• 50:54
  Speaker 2: You you veteran player learned dot call and what kind
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: of ads see brings the offense.
• 50:59
  Speaker 3: And he's third.
• 51:00
  Speaker 15: Yeah, it's constant.
• 51:01
  Speaker 11: I think it's the best thing you see about you know,
• 51:04
  Speaker 11: mag He brings it every day. You know, it's no
• 51:05
  Speaker 11: off days, and you know he's he's working extra. He's
• 51:09
  Speaker 11: you know, drawing up plays and asking me to you know,
• 51:11
  Speaker 11: come to extra walkthroughs and and doing things that you
• 51:13
  Speaker 11: will show up on Sundays and show up in practice.
• 51:15
  Speaker 11: So I think from that, you know, you know, what
• 51:18
  Speaker 11: else would you expect from from a tar heel. So
• 51:21
  Speaker 11: he's just got to brought a great energy to the room.
• 51:23
  Speaker 11: You know, veteran does all the right things, you know,
• 51:25
  Speaker 11: blocks in the run game, and I think he's, uh,
• 51:27
  Speaker 11: you're gonna be rewarded with you know, being in there
• 51:29
  Speaker 11: and making plays great.
• 51:30
  Speaker 3: Josh his coach against the defense can Ford times he
• 51:36
  Speaker 3: con't have.
• 51:39
  Speaker 5: The things I've.
• 51:40
  Speaker 2: Seen players and have you got that?
• 51:46
  Speaker 11: Yeah, going back watching Super Bowl, going back watching the
• 51:49
  Speaker 11: COVID game with Cam when nobody in the stands. Yeah,
• 51:52
  Speaker 11: I think it's great having you know, coach McDaniels, who's
• 51:54
  Speaker 11: you know, played against his defense and and uh, you
• 51:57
  Speaker 11: know knows knows some extra little tidbits for me to know,
• 52:01
  Speaker 11: whether it's in the huddle or before on this play.
• 52:04
  Speaker 11: I think it's great to you know, have you know,
• 52:06
  Speaker 11: play color in the corner. Who's you know, play against
• 52:08
  Speaker 11: the scheme in the Super Bowl? And I studied a
• 52:10
  Speaker 11: lot and I think that's with you know, a lot
• 52:11
  Speaker 11: of corners in this league's played against him and seen him.
• 52:13
  Speaker 15: And I think.
• 52:15
  Speaker 11: It's great to have that in the room and you'll
• 52:17
  Speaker 11: see what he's kind of getting on the same page
• 52:19
  Speaker 11: with him as what you're seeing and try to catch up,
• 52:21
  Speaker 11: you know, as as much as I can to his level.
• 52:22
  Speaker 11: I'm not gonna get there, but try to just of
• 52:25
  Speaker 11: hind or understanding of hey, I think they're gonna do this,
• 52:27
  Speaker 11: or hey, so what I think they're going to be
• 52:28
  Speaker 11: in and then from there watching gold games, watching Cam Newton,
• 52:32
  Speaker 11: watching Tom in the Super Bowl is pretty cool.
• 52:34
  Speaker 7: What do you think learning front year?
• 52:36
  Speaker 14: You know Captain Hunter, Harry just seeing help lead this.
• 52:39
  Speaker 15: Team professional saying yeah. And I think Hunter just just
• 52:44
  Speaker 15: a positive energy he brings to the huddle.
• 52:45
  Speaker 11: I think, you know, with me balancing that with kind
• 52:48
  Speaker 11: of being serned in the huddle and knowing that, hey,
• 52:50
  Speaker 11: I gotta get these guys going, I think just bringing,
• 52:52
  Speaker 11: you know, the positive energy. And I think Hunter is
• 52:54
  Speaker 11: the things about Hunter, he was one of the best
• 52:57
  Speaker 11: friends on the team. He just shows up every day.
• 53:00
  Speaker 11: He loves he loves football. I guess that's kind of
• 53:02
  Speaker 11: what I'm learning from from Hunter. He doesn't do it
• 53:04
  Speaker 11: for anything else, for the love of the game. Where
• 53:06
  Speaker 11: he's running a clear out route or catching the seam
• 53:08
  Speaker 11: ball or blocking the run game, he does it out
• 53:10
  Speaker 11: of sure joor of wanting to win. I think we
• 53:13
  Speaker 11: both share that same mindset want to win.
• 53:17
  Speaker 10: Top.
• 53:18
  Speaker 7: You know, your teammates have voted on toward you.
• 53:21
  Speaker 3: To kind of leave.
• 53:22
  Speaker 15: I think he's a great honor. I think, you know,
• 53:24
  Speaker 15: I think it means something, you know, playing with the
• 53:26
  Speaker 15: C on her chest.
• 53:26
  Speaker 11: And I think you'll learned that from from Jacoby Jacoby
• 53:29
  Speaker 11: last year and some of those guys you know, David
• 53:32
  Speaker 11: Andrews in the past, and I think it's something that
• 53:35
  Speaker 11: you don't take lightly. And so, you know, great honor
• 53:37
  Speaker 11: from your teammates and a team vote, and I think
• 53:39
  Speaker 11: it's it's something that often I feel like the starting
• 53:42
  Speaker 11: quarterback can kind of we'll say next our gifted it.
• 53:46
  Speaker 11: But I think it's kind of one of those things
• 53:48
  Speaker 11: where I think you go out there and earn it
• 53:50
  Speaker 11: and prove to him I'm captain. And that's kind of
• 53:51
  Speaker 11: my mindset of proving to them of being a leader
• 53:54
  Speaker 11: on this team. And I think I'm not taking it
• 53:56
  Speaker 11: as a gift. That's learn about matarials. I wouldn't say yet.
• 54:02
  Speaker 11: I wouldn't say yet. I think, uh, you know, it
• 54:05
  Speaker 11: was it was tough watching that Monday night. They uh,
• 54:07
  Speaker 11: that first drive looked good. But you know, I think
• 54:09
  Speaker 11: I'm I'm I'm counting on those guys and and coaches
• 54:12
  Speaker 11: and I'll be tuned in all season.
• 54:14
  Speaker 16: So Drake, in the past than this offense, not just
• 54:18
  Speaker 16: Fectames but phill O'Bryan, the relationship between the quarterback and
• 54:22
  Speaker 16: the play collar and the offensive coordinator, there was a
• 54:24
  Speaker 16: lot of give and take as far as input on
• 54:27
  Speaker 16: what you guys wanted to do in that game plan.
• 54:29
  Speaker 16: Are you at that point yet or is it more
• 54:31
  Speaker 16: of a one way.
• 54:32
  Speaker 2: Stream with Gamage.
• 54:33
  Speaker 15: Yeah. I think that's something you build, you know, throughout
• 54:35
  Speaker 15: the season.
• 54:35
  Speaker 11: I think it's something that I think he valued in
• 54:37
  Speaker 11: my opinion, especially on the plays, and I think he
• 54:39
  Speaker 11: valued my opinion.
• 54:40
  Speaker 15: And hey, I'm you know, out of this formation, right
• 54:42
  Speaker 15: of this look. I like this stuff. And I think
• 54:44
  Speaker 15: it's something that kind of throughout the season. I think
• 54:47
  Speaker 15: you can kind of.
• 54:48
  Speaker 11: Say, hey, I think what about this play, Remember we
• 54:50
  Speaker 11: ran it back in this week.
• 54:51
  Speaker 15: I think it's something that you can kind of build
• 54:53
  Speaker 15: and uh, you know, build trust. I think the trust
• 54:54
  Speaker 15: is there.
• 54:55
  Speaker 11: I think it's just for me of just continue growing
• 54:58
  Speaker 11: and seeing, hey, let's do this against you this defense
• 55:00
  Speaker 11: and continue to find out, you know what things I
• 55:03
  Speaker 11: like and I think you know for right now, just
• 55:06
  Speaker 11: trusting whatever he's got in and let them know what
• 55:08
  Speaker 11: I like and and give an input here and there.
• 55:09
  Speaker 15: Hey I like this, I like that. So I talked
• 55:12
  Speaker 15: about gigs and calls IVC from.
• 55:17
  Speaker 4: And now great moments in.
• 55:21
  Speaker 3: History.
• 55:22
  Speaker 14: Most wine drinkers see no value in playing with the cork,
• 55:24
  Speaker 14: but it's a nice tradition.
• 55:25
  Speaker 7: It makes a good souvenir.
• 55:27
  Speaker 2: I've seen it done.
• 55:28
  Speaker 3: Oh, I've seen it that all the time. Because people
• 55:30
  Speaker 3: don't really know what they're doing with wine.
• 55:33
  Speaker 17: Uh, your idiocy knows no bounds.
• 55:37
  Speaker 3: So you just keep the cork to you no more
• 55:39
  Speaker 3: than wine spectator. Is that what you're saying.
• 55:42
  Speaker 17: I'm saying that at good restaurants, they give you the
• 55:45
  Speaker 17: course somelias. Yes, have told me you smell the cork
• 55:50
  Speaker 17: for an immediate test as to whether the wine has
• 55:54
  Speaker 17: gone bad or not.
• 55:55
  Speaker 3: I don't know. Yeah, it's ever said that to you,
• 55:57
  Speaker 3: or if they don't know, they walk away and laughed
• 56:00
  Speaker 3: at you. You know what I just told that guy?
• 56:04
  Speaker 17: Okay, the wine dude, Okay, you all know better than
• 56:08
  Speaker 17: you know.
• 56:08
  Speaker 3: What Cabernet seven. You know, I can tell the difference
• 56:11
  Speaker 3: of a good one in a bad one. That's about
• 56:13
  Speaker 3: as far as I go.
• 56:14
  Speaker 4: What's your test?
• 56:15
  Speaker 2: What's your barometer for whether it's good or not?
• 56:17
  Speaker 3: Just how it feels in my mouth.
• 56:19

• 1:00:03
  Speaker 7: I feel like we do something big for the winner.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 3: The overall season win. Yeah, two T shirts, one that fits,
• 1:00:14

• 1:00:38
  Speaker 3: you know about that.
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 4: I do know about it. But I like to be
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 4: behind the velvet ropes like Andy.
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well the experience would be meeting you behind the
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 3: velvet rope.
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 4: That's what I'm looking to avoid.
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 3: Well, all right, Mike and Long Island. What's up, Mike,

  Speaker 4: Okay, thanks thanks Mike, common comic comedic style, and I
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 4: love Mike and Long. I love England. That was very
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 4: well done.
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 3: Will In Cranston writes in at podcasts at Patriots dot Com,
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 3: I have no idea how as a Patriots fan, how
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 3: people are not super excited. There are so many reasons
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 3: this game should be awesome. Campbell versus Max Davis versus Bowers,
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 3: Pop and Digs versus, a questionable secondary, a new regime
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 3: under Rabo, a playmaker group of running backs, and a perennial,
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 3: perennially underrated tight end in Hunter Henry In a growing
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 3: quarterback and rookie room who wants to prove it. I'm pumped.
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 3: Let's go Patriots. Let's take the East.
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 4: I love it is that the proper amount of excitement.
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely good.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 4: You guys are coming through Jackie ann Arbor. That email
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 4: in Cranston, I forget the first name.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 3: What was his name?
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 4: Will and Kranston, Well, well that's good. Good job you
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 4: met Fred stamp of approval. Good job yep.
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 3: Joseph is the biggest Patriots fan in Hillsboro, Oregon. Self proclaimed,
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 3: he says, from each of the panel, what is the
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 3: one realistic thing that we could see on Sunday that
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 3: you would give that would give you the most optimism
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 3: for how the rest of the season will go outside
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 3: of Drake May looking like a franchise quarterback. For me,
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 3: it would be Campbell and Wilson starting on the left
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 3: side and holding up well in pass protection. That's a
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 3: good one. Yeah, yeah, I.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 4: Mean that's tough without the answer, he's right by taking
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 4: away the obvious. Yeah, but that's the one thing that
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 4: would leave me to believe they could have a better season,
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 4: would be Drake May looking the part. Other than that,
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 4: how about Chrevon Henderson is as electric as we all
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 4: think he's going to be that we've seen in the preseason.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 4: All of a sudden he gets the ten to fifteen
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 4: touches that we're talking about, and he makes some plays,
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 4: big plays.
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 3: I mean mine would be Diggs, you know, ten twelve
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 3: catches or whatever you know, or more.
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 6: I feel like mine is the listener or the emailers
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 6: example of the O line. I think if that's secure,
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 6: everything else kind of yep, can build off that.
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot of things that a lot of
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 3: people will be jumping to conclusions on both sides, good
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 3: or bad after this game, which you know, people should
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 3: probably caution because I remember this time last year after
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 3: the Cincinnati game.
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 4: It's not really showing the proper amount of enthusiasm.
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 3: Fred No, But like more so, I'm saying that in
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 3: case things aren't good.
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 4: Right, that's good, that's good fun. Yeah now, but you're right, Yeah,
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 4: I keep talking about that. With regard to the draft classes.
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 4: Draft class, everybody is gaga over because all these guys
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 4: are going to be playing right away. And I just
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 4: would caution that all the guys that played right away
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 4: last year, you told me how wonderful that was as
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 4: a sign, and by the end of the year you
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 4: looked at it a lot differently that that opener last
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 4: year against Cincinnati. It was certainly you know, unexpected.
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they play.
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 4: If you drew any conclusion, they're going to be able
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 4: to run the ball like that against anyone, that would
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 4: have been your takeaway from that game, that physicality travels,
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 4: that plays.
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 3: Like no doesn't.
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 15: Right.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 3: So, like I said, a lot of conclusions will be
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 3: made after this game that will probably be wrong. Was
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 3: that both sides.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 6: Was that the game where we had like a full
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 6: Baldi's breakdown about was it Ladon Robinson or was that
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 6: a different game.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 4: I don't know about Baldi's breakdown, but there's There were
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 4: a lot of people that were like, you can win
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 4: like that, you know, you can just line up and
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 4: be physically.
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 3: Baldy did do a breakdown. I don't know if it
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 3: was about Laydon Robinson, but I remember him doing something
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 3: I remember doing my I reposted it because I was like, yeah,
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 3: I remember doing.
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 4: My hit with with Mike and Tony the next week
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 4: and the whole thing. You know, they were skeptical that
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 4: they could continue to play like that and week in
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 4: and week out. Yeah, no, no, they were skeptical they
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 4: could play the way they played that way, keep that
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 4: level of play. And I saw if they play like
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 4: that every week, they're gonna lose more games than they win.
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 4: That isn't sustainable to win. You can't just run the
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 4: ball and not make any plays in the passing game
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 4: and hope the other team fumbles going into the end
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 4: zone and expect to win every week. You know, you're
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 4: not gonna win sixteen to ten every week because the
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 4: other team poops itself. That was the unsustainable.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 3: The exact words where it's a tough way to live.
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 4: It's a tough way to live, exactly right.
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 3: James, the most interesting Patriots fan of the World says,
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 3: I remember the days of the double by we mock
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 3: a fan base for being overly excited coming off two
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 3: four win seasons. Remember what we said about the Eagles
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 3: dream team all those years ago. I understand why you
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 3: do it, Fred, But that behaved is for NFL peasantry.
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 3: We're Patriots fans, we are Swans in the water. We
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 3: know success.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 4: Oh come on, I'm with you, Fred, Come on, that's
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 4: your problem.
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 3: We're starting.
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 4: That's your problem.
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 3: We're starting a new here.
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 4: Correct.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 3: This is not we can't use the bar of Tom
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 3: Brady anymore.
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 4: Like we can't be looking down at other teams fan
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 4: bases for being enthusiastic and excited about the start of
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 4: a new season, right we like, you're not them anymore?
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 4: Ye like this whole peasantry thing. I yeah, did the
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 4: last five years not happen? Or how many years would it?
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 4: Will it be before someone says, okay, all right, we're
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 4: just like James.
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 3: Over the last two years, we were peasants.
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 4: And we're just like everybody else. You're going to go
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 4: into a new season hoping you're that you've improved, hoping
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 4: that Drake made is the guy that.
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 3: To me is we may have we may have royalty
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 3: going through our are veins, but we need to get
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 3: back up there. We haven't earned it yet.
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 4: Like you, you and Alex were talking about sort of
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 4: the excitement of the new season. Isn't that what being
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 4: a fan is all about. Every year offers new hope. Yep,
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 4: it doesn't matter that you went four and thirteen last year.
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 4: We got to be excited about this is going to
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 4: be different. Mike Rabel's here now, Josh McDaniels is taking
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 4: care of Drake May, and they're going to be better.
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 4: That's I don't know why you wouldn't look at it
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 4: like that as a fan, and why you would think
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 4: that that's embarrassing, like that makes you a peasant. I
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 4: don't get that. I believe he called the peasantry of well,
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 4: the teams that.
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 3: Think like he's very high brow, do you know what
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 3: I mean?
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 4: That's like the way that the way that you've.
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 7: Met James right, I have a meendim Bro correspondent, like.
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 4: The like the Browns, right, the Browns right now, they're
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 4: probably not expected to do anything. You don't think, you know,
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 4: diehard Cleveland fans are like, well, you know, if you
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 4: know Flacco gets off to a good start, they might
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 4: be able to win some games. The defense has some
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 4: talent with Miles Garrett and right, why would when you
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 4: think like that as a fan?
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 7: Sure, because we're miserable here, some of us are. I'm
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 7: not personally, I'm not. You are not trying to be
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 7: very optimistic at all times.
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 4: I try to be realistic. But I don't think there's
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 4: anything wrong with being optimistic. I just feel like that's
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 4: part of being a fan. Why it's fanatic?
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and take advantage of these moments because sometimes you
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 6: learn right there, week one, oh crop, this is going
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 6: to be a long and sometimes it's a fleeting woman
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 6: of hope and just enjoy it.
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 3: Listen. I always go back to three high hopes. You know,
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 3: you came off not making the playoffs and O two
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 3: but you're a year away from being a super Bowl
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 3: champ and then molloy and you lose thirty one nothing
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 3: and it was like, oh crap. But things turned around,
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 3: you know. Bradley writes in I've heard you mentioned not
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 3: wanting to have Henderson go between the tackles as much
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 3: due to his potential wear and tear. Would you worry
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 3: about his eagerness to pick up blitzes, contributing to wear
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 3: and tear if left in to pass protect. Well, that's
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 3: his strength.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 4: Because you're delivering a hit as opposed to getting hit.
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 3: You're the hammer, not the nail.
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 4: Correct. Plus one of them is a necessity, the other
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 4: one is not a necessity. You don't have to subject
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 4: yourself to more hits than you want to as a
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 4: blitz protector. That's part of the job that you have
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 4: to do. Otherwise the quarterback is going to take that hit.
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 3: Yep. And we were told, you know, that's what's kept
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 3: rookie running bats on the bench is because they weren't
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 3: quick to pick that up. This guy, from everything we've
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 3: seen comes into the league.
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 4: And there is a difference. I know, like me and
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 4: Fred are doing the Andy Hart iron Sharpen's iron hammer
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 4: and the nail, but there is a difference between hitting
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 4: someone and getting hit. Oh yeah, in terms of the physicality.
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 3: Darius says, I want to start off and say that
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 3: you're all the best, thank you, And I also want
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 3: to give a big thank you to Boston Cream for
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 3: setting the app so we could all play along. That
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 3: was awesome of him. Secondly, I wanted to say how
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 3: proud I am of Digs for standing up for himself.
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 3: I understand that you guys are medias also, but sometimes
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 3: the media needs to get checked. Lastly, my score prediction
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 3: Patriots thirty eight, Vegas twenty four.
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 4: Wow, what did I mean? What is the media checked party?
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 7: Well?
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 3: Did you heard Diggs yesterday?
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 4: Oh? Yeah, that wasn't the media checked part?
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 2: Well?
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 3: He kind of checked Phil and Tom. What do you
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 3: mean he called him.
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 4: Out by name.
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 4: I think it was about something else, but that's okay.
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 3: He said Phil and Tom, But it was about Bob
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 3: and Steve.
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, no, no, no Phil. My point
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 4: is Phil and Tom didn't do anything wrong. They were
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 4: making their thing off or something. Dig said, No, yeah,
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 4: it was about Phil saying he was a pain in
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 4: the ass. Yeah, based on as actually said Posterioasteria. Yeah,
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 4: but it was based off for something Diggs had said
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 4: that he didn't necessarily mean literally, right, but so it
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 4: was something Diggs said.
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 3: No, no, yes, he didn't say I'm a pain in
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 3: the posteria.
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 4: It's a different thing. We don't have to get okay,
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 4: all right, but I think he was checking them. I
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 4: don't think he was Okay.
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 7: I just feel like everyone involved made it a way
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 7: bigger deal than it.
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 4: It was a complete and total nothing burger. Again, you
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 4: know how I know when it's a nothing burger. When
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 4: two guys that make something out of everything, Mike and
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 4: Tony said this is a complete nothing burger. I don't
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 4: know what we're even talking about. Well, the most unnecessary
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 4: thing I've ever seen in my life that I agree with.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 3: I think it was odd. I thought it was odd.
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 4: I don't think he needed it was completely bizarre. Yeah,
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 4: but and he was kind of made more out of
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 4: it than had already existed. Well, I think it was
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 4: completely unnecessary.
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 7: I wonder if Raebel didn't.
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 6: I don't know if he got like impatient with Phil's
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 6: question that day when Phil was kind of trying to
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 6: get clarification on Diggs talking to Russini. When Diggs was
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 6: it seemed like he was just joking around with Rusini,
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 6: and then he.
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 7: Goes to Rebel. I feel like Rabel's like, why are
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 7: you wasting my time with this?
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 3: Come on?
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 6: And then maybe people felt some type of way after
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 6: that encounter, and then it lands on Diggs being a
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 6: jerky somehow, And I don't under.
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 4: Oh, I don't think it landed on Diggs being a jerk,
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 4: but I think you've nailed the whole situation. I think
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 4: it was an unnecessary like why are you phoning around
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 4: on this interview? Now they're asking me these questions. Now
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 4: I have to answer this, Phil, what's wrong with you?
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 4: You should know better? He was joking around, like it
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 4: just turned into something in Minnesota that didn't need to happen,
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 4: and for whatever reason, three weeks later, Dig decided to
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 4: I don't know, do whatever that was yesterday. Twitter ran
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 4: with it, unfortunately, But when was the last time you
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 4: saw anything about it since they got back from Minnesota.
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 7: I feel like.
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 6: Being trolled that they're like whiny or something, or free
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 6: will shove them in a locker.
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 7: Oh, I don't know narratives that could be.
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I just didn't. I didn't really understand that that
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 4: was a waste of time. Yeah, yes, to be honest
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 4: with you, and you know it's funny.
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 2: I was.
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 4: I was with Mike and Tony when that happened. I
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 4: was doing my sunshine and I said, to be honest
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 4: with you, like Diggs is saying, I didn't mean to
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 4: come off as an a hole. Or whatever, and I
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 4: was like, to the contrary, we haven't talked to him
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 4: a lot. That part was true. He hasn't spoken to
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 4: the media a lot, but when he has he's been excellent. Yeah,
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 4: Like Alex, you know, gave you some insight as to
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 4: what he's been like, sort of behind the scenes, away
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 4: from microphones. We haven't talked to him a lot, but
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 4: when he has talked to us, he's been really.
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 3: Even after the boat incident and he was interviewed in
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 3: the fieldhouse, I believe they had practiced the door that day.
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 3: He was fine.
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 4: He was fine. Like I haven't had any inkling whatsoever
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 4: of what he was talking about yesterday.
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 3: Yes, I excited about him. I don't know why you're not.
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 4: I mean, I'm just excited, just excited, Fred, just excited.
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 4: I just want to be excited. I want to be
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 4: like Mike do So and just be excited all the time.
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 4: It's great. I don't have to go twelve and four anymore.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 4: It's just exciting.
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 3: Defense is back in New England.
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 4: I didn't get the whole thing yesterday, to be honest
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 4: with you, but I agree with Alex. It was a
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 4: total nothing.
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, speed Fresno absolutely loved the New Jill song and
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 3: all of her musical contributions. But just want to give
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 3: a nostalgic shout out to mister lyfft on Tuesday PFW
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 3: shows after win. I always used to get totally jacked
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 3: up when the record scratch at the beginning kicked in.
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 3: That was a good opening song, mister lyff Anyway, here's
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 3: a little quick game of free association. I'll give you
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 3: a very brief cue, a single word or phrase, and
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 3: you blurt out the first NFL coach that comes to mind.
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 3: Current or former coaches are eligible. I've listed answers that
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 3: popped into my mind, which Frek can reveal after you guess.
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 3: This should go fast because I know you got to hurry. Okay,
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 3: so free association. I'm going to say a word. Tell
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 3: me the first coach current or in the past that
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 3: comes to mind. Ready, tripping Tom correct, like Tomins tried
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 3: to trip somebody on the sideline once clapping Jason Garrett, Yes,
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 3: could be McDermott too, scowling scowling Bill Bill, Bill Wilford, Brimley,
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 3: Andy Reid, Ye Fedora mm hmm. Could be two people.
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 4: Like Tom Landry. Okay, past Okay, I was thinking, but
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 4: I remember I remember the qualified.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 3: Okay advisor McDaniels. That's a good one. But I think
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 3: he only wants head coaches, so that's a good one.
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 3: It doesn't have his things aren't. The correct answer is
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 3: just whatever works, so there's no right or wrong.
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 4: McDaniels works because he was a past Absolutely.
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 3: Uh sunglasses, this is a good one. Absolutely, he used
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 3: to wear sunglasses.
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 4: Else with sunglasses? Who Tony Sperano, Oh, yeah, that's a
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 4: good one. He had the eye thing, yeah, good, good, good.
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 4: He has some kind of eye conditioning.
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he was like even at night he'd wear them. Uh,
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 3: thick rim glasses this one. I have no idea.
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 4: That Mike McDaniel.
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 3: No, it doesn't coach anything.
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 7: ODIs glasses.
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 3: Yeahs. I'll give you another one, just like or something.
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 3: I'll give you another one, same person that I'm that
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 3: he was thinking of. And then uh punching.
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 4: Oh what he hayes No no no, no, no, no
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 4: no no what he hates had thick rimmed glass but NFL,
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 4: he actually did. Buddy Buddy Ryan, Buddy Ryan had.
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 3: Remember he punched his offensive coordinator.
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 4: I suppose he did have thick rimmed glass, Kevin Gilbride. Yeah,
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 4: he was the defensive coordinator at the time.
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 3: This is easy feet Rex, Brian, you got right, good
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 3: pencil pencil.
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 7: I think of Patricia, but yes, yes, you got it.
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 3: That's a good one. Not again, it's not right or wrong,
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 3: but yeah, that's who he thought of as well. Where
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 3: are you going? Okay, so we'll finish the game. Gum gum. Yeah,
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 6: I've thought about someone watching an NFL game just chomping
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 6: the hell out of a piece of gum and I
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 6: can't picture.
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 3: Well, there's one that we're gonna see.
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 7: Carrol.
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's always mustache, I think, yes, and he had
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 3: as well as as well as Bill Cower tight pants,
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 3: any of Evans. He's got McDaniel, but it could Sean McVay. Yeah,
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 3: I think of Sean McVay. He was the original tight
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 3: pants guy, right and then red face.
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 7: Red face. There could be a couple there too.
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's got Tom clapp Coughlin, which is a good one.
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 3: I would have had McDermott and he said, Fred will
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 3: say McDermott, you know, red ass you call him. So
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 3: that's that's a good game.
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 7: Take me out of this.
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 3: Thanks, b someone has returned.
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 7: Look who's back from the locker room?
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 10: What was the mood where the player's friendly to that?
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 3: None of them look like Devin Henry.
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 4: Hey Mike, what was it like in the locker room?
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 7: Heyke?
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 3: What was it like in the locker room? Hey Mike?
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 2: What was it like? It's pretty uh exciting, I would say,
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 2: I think exciting. Yeah, I think the guys are anticipation's
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 2: building for the home opener this weekend for sure. Uh,
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 2: you know, talk to a couple of Trevon Hendersons. You know,
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 2: his first chance of course, uh getting out there. So
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 2: he seemed he actually he seemed kind of like steady Eddie.
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 2: He didn't really seem like, oh, I'm so you know,
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 2: he's kind of a quiet guy though anyway. But you know,
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 2: morgan O's this good advice for the young guys and
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 2: what to expect, and you know, I think the message
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 2: from the veterans is just go out there and play football.
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 2: You know, don't overthink it. You guys are all brought
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 2: in here for a reason, so you know, just go
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 2: out there and and and let it rip. So uh,
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 2: Pop Douglas the same thing, you know, just talking a
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 2: little bit of out his opening game experiences and everybody
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 2: hoping that the fans are going to bring the energy
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 2: and that they have a little bit of a home
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 2: field advantage. So I think it's in a game like this,
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 2: which a lot of the Patriots games are this year,
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 2: feels kind of like a coin flip, you hope that
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 2: you know, the energy is really good here and that
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 2: that home field advantage comes back. Hasn't really been a
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 2: home field Yeah, And I.
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 3: Hope you know, fans, if you're listening, those of you
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 3: are going to be in attendance, bring the noise, bring it,
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 3: let's go, let's let's let's get to Let's stadium. Back
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 3: to being a home field advantage, yeah, because I don't
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 3: think it has been for a long time.
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 2: No, No, And it's I think they go hand in hand,
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 2: you know, good team and get it.
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 3: I get. I'm not blaming the fans. I'm just like,
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 3: let's let's start off on the right foot this this week.
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 2: Then you know, we can start to build some momentum
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 2: and you know, start to build some buzz and hey
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 2: there's something going on here in this you know, win
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 2: or lose. I think this team is going to play
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 2: really hard and be a fun product to watch. And
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 2: I just hope offensively that they're able to move the ball,
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 2: put some points up and make all these games interesting.
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 3: So getting back to the locker room, a lot of media,
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 3: lot of me, lot of media people.
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 2: No national people, but I would say there was more
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 2: than than yesterday. Yesterday was a little bit quieter, which
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 2: is strange, but of course we had you know, Josh
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 2: McDaniels went earlier, Jeremy Springer went earlier to Roll Williams
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 2: is going this afternoon. The rest of the offensive coaches
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 2: are going this afternoon. So it's a very busy day
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 2: right now for these guys, and I know Thursday is
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 2: a big day for their prep. I was watching a
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 2: couple of the guys go out with you know, they
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 2: used to wear like pennies when they're pretending to be
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 2: the other team, but now they're just wearing like kind
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 2: of regular Patriots jersey. So guys in different numbers. You know,
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 2: Jeremiah Webb was in sixteen, so I guess he's, you know,
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 2: playing the part of Jacobe Kobe Myers this week. So
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 2: that's you know, how Rabel likes to do it.
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 5: I guess every little nuances.
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 3: Did you run into Evan?
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 2: I did run into Evan. I talked to Evian a
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 2: little bit in the locker room.
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 5: You interview I didn't interview him.
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 2: I just I just, you know, had a little brief
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 2: chat with him as we were. You know, he does
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 2: this thing, he's going around talking.
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 3: I was to say, like, did you catch Evan in
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 3: a corner in a little conversation.
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 2: I saw one with Jalen Hawkins and and then it
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 2: was funny yesterday as I mean, you know, Evan went
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 2: up to he went up to Josh Dobbs yesterday and
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 2: he was like, can I ask you a potentially stupid
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 2: football question? And Josh Dobbs was very gracious, and I
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 2: didn't hear what they were saying, but they had a
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 2: good conversation. And Josh Dobbs like, no, it's a good question.
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 3: I want to talk up to Josh Dobbs. I want
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 3: to see if he wants to do.
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 4: Evan did that. He went up to Josh Dobbs and
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 4: just said Evyane was being disingenuous. There's no way that
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 4: he really thought dumb, because there's no way he would
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 4: subject himself to.
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 2: Not being a ball noer no, I think this might
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 2: have been an area that Evan actually like wasn't was
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 2: genuinely wasn't sure about something. I do that stuff.
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 4: That's exactly how I do it.
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 3: It's like how I wait into right, I'm surprised I'm
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 3: not getting a call, Hey, why is Evan asking Josh?
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 2: Well, I think he you know what he's giving. Evan
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 2: does dive into the film, and I think he, you know,
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 2: generally has questions that that only those guys can really answer.
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 2: So Josh jobs was great. I mean, it seemed like
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 2: he gave him a lot. And that's nothing I really
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 2: enjoyed from some of the behind the scenes Forged stuff.
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 2: Was just, you know, Josh Dobbs listening to him kind
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 2: of talk to these guys, and you know, you just
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 2: get a sense of who these guys are as people
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 2: and as teammates and what kind of leadership they bring.
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 2: And every time I hear Josh Dobbs talk, I see, Yeah,
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 2: I get why this guy is. You know, we're just
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 2: really respecting he's got, i mean, obviously really interesting career
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 2: with what he's done, going into programs and starting games
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 2: on no.
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 3: No, you know, no, no, I want to do a
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 3: podcast with Josh Dobbs past him. Just that'd be fun
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 3: two of us and we'll talk about science fiction, we'll
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 3: talk about all kinds of different things.
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 2: You know, that's exciting.
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 3: I would like to do that. I'm going to propose
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 3: that Tom, Josh Dobbs.
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 4: Let's go.
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 3: Well, what's going on?
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 2: Pull you all right? So I haven't seen.
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 3: I thought you had to go to the bar.
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 7: Did you just fake a call to get a new PEPSI?
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 4: Well, I was out there. While I'm out here, I
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 4: was out there, so I decided to go around the
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 4: corner and get one from that other refrigerator. And I
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 4: also had a quick little moment with the head coach.
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 4: Braves happened to be coming by.
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 2: Hey Paul, just a high quiet Hey, pay how.
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 4: You doing, Mike? Good lucks on? I didn't say good blocks.
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 4: So I've been boring Mike with this. I won't go
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 4: twenty minutes. Don't worry about he he has that look
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 4: on his face. This is this is like damping, damping
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 4: the enthusiasm, Paul. I don't know where you're going with this,
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 4: but anyway, so my brother in law, his son, my nephew,
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 4: and we all live very very close together, like within
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 4: an eighth of a mile right slam. So yeah, so
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 4: they've decided everybody's got some cleaning to do. You know
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 4: those Hall truck you know those junk trucks out Yeah, yeah,
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 4: the one eight hundred. Very very it's very expensive. Yeah,
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 4: it can be very expensive. Right, So we hired one
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 4: and we're gonna do it. I asked him to do
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 4: it all together. Oh so we got a little bit
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 4: of a many hands make light work correct, Yeah, and
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 4: they agreed to do all three and we got a
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 4: pretty good rate to do it. The problem was when
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 4: we've decided to do this, and that was a couple
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 4: of weeks ago, and all of a sudden, like on
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 4: Tuesday night, I was told, yeah, they're coming at one
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 4: thirty on Thursday. Like, I'm not ready, You're not ready.
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 4: So I got home last night, it's dark out, and
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 4: I'm like, I had to get everything out from under
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 4: the deck, and I sent Mike a picture of it.
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 4: I'll see if I can get that on the camera.
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we should get that.
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 4: Mike is just dying laughing at some of the crowd.
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 4: I have, like you know, like the wedding cake stairs
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 4: that go in a pool like the plastic stairs like
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 4: when I first got the pool, like twenty five years ago.
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 4: The guy's like, yeah, I'm throwing a set of those sticks.
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 4: So the guy just like brings over this set of
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 4: stairs and just dumps him in my backyard. No instruction.
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 4: I have no idea how to like install them.
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 3: Put to the top.
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 4: He's like, oh you put like like say it like
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 4: like I'm not drilling anything into my new pool right,
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 4: like in creating a leak, Like I don't know how that.
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 4: So they've never been in the pool. They've been under
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 4: my deck for twenty five years.
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 8: It looks like it.
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 3: I could just see the Perillo clan. They all get
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 3: their stuff together and each one is like, you're throwing
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 3: that out, I'll take that before you know. If there's
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 3: nothing left, everything's been claimed by somebody else.
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 7: Right, So how did you get into your pool for
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 7: twenty years?
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 2: Oh?
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 4: I have a ladder. There's a regular ladder. But these
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 4: stairs would have been much better for say, like my
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 4: mother in law who used to watch the kids all
• 1:26:22
  Speaker 4: the time, and would have been much easier for her
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 4: to get in and out of the pool. See, he
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 4: always has to go snark, all right, you're the Queen
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 4: of Snark. I'm the king of Snark, you're the queen.
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 3: Okay, all right, I'll owan that Moniker. Okay.
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 4: So anyway, Yeah, my brother in law was kind enough
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 4: to go over and just sort of make sure that
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 4: everything that we needed to get taken out. There were
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 4: three pieces of the sectional still in the house because Beth,
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 4: who was the only one around to help me get this,
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 4: the section was in like seven pieces that we were
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 4: thrown away. Yeah, sec we put like four of them
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 4: out in the driveway. The other ones, the ones that
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 4: had like the recliner ones, they're really heavy with like
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 4: the big metal braces in the back end. I couldn't
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 4: couldn't do it by myself. And Beth is like, yeah,
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 4: I'm out.
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 3: You don't have a Dolly in the basement.
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 4: What were you saying about the Boston accent? That was
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 4: a little Boston accent dolly, right though.
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 7: That's almost even more New Jersey, the emphasis on the own,
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 7: not the O.
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 3: Could be.
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 4: My brother and law just wanted to make sure that
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 4: everything that I wanted to get thrown out with all right.
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 4: Just the wedding cake stairs, Oh my god, they're textured.
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 2: You've just been staring at those cursing them for twenty years.
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 3: Put the mold on it.
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 4: I think we're going to effort to get that photo up.
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 4: It's a mess.
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 2: The fans are clamoring for it, all right.
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 3: So so you would say, is an enthusiastic locker room.
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 3: Was Drake in there?
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 15: Yeah?
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 2: I saw Drake walking through, so you know, and and
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 2: I gotta say this again, just to piggyback off what
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 2: Alex said. We were all gathered around Pop Douglas and
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 2: as is often the case, there's so many people that
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 2: it spills over into the lockers next to him, and
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 2: Stefan Diggs was not at his locker when we all
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 2: got there, and he kind of like walked in and
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 2: Karen Greagan like kind of got out of the way.
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 2: We're gonna kind of moved and he was just like,
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 2: it's all good, it's all good. I got to like
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 2: it was, you know, just very smiley, gracious and you know,
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 2: putting on a good face for for all that.
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 3: So after yesterday, God, I hope these kids winning just one.
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 4: That's like two weeks in a row.
• 1:28:30
  Speaker 5: So it was it was good.
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Okay, all right, So I think we need to
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 3: get into the picks because I think we're gonna need
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 3: a little extra time here too.
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 4: Do you need extra time?
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 3: All right? So it is that time of the week.
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 2: We're not going to talk about last year.
• 1:28:45

• 1:29:02
  Speaker 4: eighty two. Paul was third at one eighty four and
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 4: eighty eight, and then Mike and Fred were tied at
• 1:29:08

  Speaker 3: the back, but those are good numbers. If you're anything
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 3: over fifty percent against the spread, that's good. I mean
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 3: Evan was forty six over the over five hundred, that's correct.
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 3: That's that's amazing.

  Speaker 4: Philly by eight and a half, eight point five.
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's so. As I was pondering this game, just
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 2: wondering what is Dallas's frame of mind after trading Michael Parsons,
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 2: How does that play out with them? I know Paul
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 2: talking about this being a division game, hard to pick
• 1:30:58
  Speaker 2: against Philadelphia. They're just so talented. They have brought most
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 2: everybody back. So I'm going to go with Philadelphia. But
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 2: I think on the first night of the season in
• 1:31:07
  Speaker 2: a divisional game, I think it might be a little
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 2: bit closer, even if the Cowboys are reeling a little bit,
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 2: So I will take Dallas plus eight point five.
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 7: At those points, I'm gonna go Philly, Philly. It's been
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 7: a top six months for Dallas sports fans.
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 2: It is yep, right they traded Luca.
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I am going to agree with Alex. I think
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 4: it's been a mess for the Cowboys maybe. I mean,
• 1:31:33
  Speaker 4: I know I'm reading all from the Dallas industrial Complex
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 4: that evidently Micah Parsons kills children in his spare time
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 4: since since the trade last right, the smear campaign is
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 4: red Sox esque, I would say, But I got to
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 4: think that that trade wasn't the best thing for everybody
• 1:31:53
  Speaker 4: with the Cowboys, And now I'll take Philly both ways.
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 4: A lot of times that I think Mike is right
• 1:31:59
  Speaker 4: that that opening night thing coming off a super Bowl
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 4: doesn't always go the way you think it's gonna go.
• 1:32:04
  Speaker 4: But I have a feeling that they, you know, and win.
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 3: One of the things that like kind of got lost
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 3: in all the Micah Parsons and all that stuff is
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 3: their head coach is Brian Shottennheim. It's like, because Jerry
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 3: Jones doesn't want to go out and get like a
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 3: a coach that will talk back, right. So I was
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 3: gonna say the lock was taking the points, but I
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 3: gotta go Eagles both ways. I just think that when
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 3: you add in everything, I just think this is a
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 3: lost season for the Cowboys. Friday night, uh eight o'clock
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 3: on YouTube. I'm not exactly sure how that's gonna work.
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 3: You just type YouTube into the line into your smart
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 3: TV browser. I don't want to watch on my phone.
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 3: I don't want to watch on my phone. I want
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 3: to watch it on my big screen TV. Am I
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 3: gonna be able to do.
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 2: That without a subscribe?
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 7: Do you have the app on your smart TV? I
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 7: don't know the YouTube.
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 3: I might Okay, I have a smart TV, so I
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 3: assume that YouTube's probably aren't.
• 1:33:10
  Speaker 6: Just he's gonna call you tomorrow, operator, I'll be ready
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 6: to go I'll be ready to walk you through it.
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 4: Trying to watch the game, I will say, with no
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 4: snark involved at all. I am borderline stunned that I'm
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 4: not the one asking that question.
• 1:33:25
  Speaker 3: No, I don't watch YouTube TV. I don't.
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 4: I don't either, but I know you can.
• 1:33:30
  Speaker 3: I know, but I've never had to, so I don't know.
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 7: I just watch YouTube for free. But they do have
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 7: like a TV subscription.
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 3: You can use YouTube and replace Comcast with it. YouTube
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 3: has its own network.
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 4: My question is can I watch this game without being
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 4: a YouTube subscriber?
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 3: Yes, yes, it's free.
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 4: It is free.
• 1:33:51
  Speaker 3: It is free, absolutely, I know that for sure.
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 4: So now, but I was a little surprised that you
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 4: wouldn't be a little bit more up on watching.
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 3: I haven't even looked into it yet.
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 4: So it's the chiefs at the Chargers casey by three three.
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I flirted.
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 4: I know people are Probablylane would be happy now when I.
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 2: Flirted with not picking the chiefs.
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 15: Uh.
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 2: I know people a little bit of chefs fatigue settling in.
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 2: I get it. But I just I think they are
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 2: going to bounce back this year. I can't. I can't
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 2: pick the Chargers. I'm not sure. I think Kansas City's
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 2: beating them through or four straight times. So I'm gonna
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 2: go with Kansas City, even on the road, and I'm
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 2: gonna lay the points.
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 7: I think Kansas City will win.
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, it's in Brazil.
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 3: It's in Brazil.
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 4: What's three.
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 3: Surprising?
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 4: That's weird?
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they know something something's up? Is something up?
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 4: How many do you think they should be favored by
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 4: over the Chargers?
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 3: Seven? Really? Yeah?
• 1:34:50
  Speaker 4: Six playoff teams are playing? You think it should be
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 4: a touch seven?
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 2: Oh wow, you just made the you made the middle
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 2: school is really happy with that one.
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 3: What the middle schoolers?
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 2: Six seventh?
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 7: That's a thing.
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 2: It can't stop saying six seven. I don't ask, don't ask.
• 1:35:06
  Speaker 4: Don't stumble into an it's not even think you did.
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 4: And you know it's not even fields have no idea.
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 4: What's going on?
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 15: You and I?
• 1:35:14
  Speaker 2: Six seven and laughing all over the place. You don't
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 2: really know why. I'm just telling you, Wow, Okay, somebody
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 2: will write in about it.
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 3: I'm sure, all right, somebody tell me what six seven means.
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 4: We'll explain it to us off there.
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 7: I don't even know.
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 5: It's like unexplainable, too young for me.
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 6: There's a lot of travel for both teams. I think
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 6: Kansas City will win the game.
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 2: He's flirting with the hook.
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 7: Justin has a new girlfriend.
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 4: That's the hook.
• 1:35:43
  Speaker 7: I think they might cover.
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 2: Wait, who is it? Somebody famous?
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 7: Madison beer Beer. I don't know. She's really really hot.
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 2: You said it, it's like a it's like a I
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 2: don't think I heard that.
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 7: Name of situation. Too young, way too young, Oh, Josh.
• 1:36:00
  Speaker 2: I would fade any their quarterbacks dating an actress.
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 4: But you're taking Kansas City or taking the point.
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 7: I'm taking Kansas City, and I'm giving the Chargers the points.
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 4: Okay, I am going to take Kansas City both ways also.
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 4: But the Chargers are pretty good. I'm a little, I guess,
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 4: waiting to see how they respond to a tough, tough summer,
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 4: you know, losing the best linemen, and how they're going
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 4: to respond to that. Najie Harris's you know, situation kind
• 1:36:29
  Speaker 4: of odd. Don't know if he's going to be able
• 1:36:32
  Speaker 4: to play even I think the Chargers are pretty good.
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 4: I think there'll be a playoff team. But I think
• 1:36:37
  Speaker 4: that the demise or as Quint would say, the demise
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 4: of the Chiefs, I think has been greatly exaggerated. Again,
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 4: a lot of people picking Denver to win the AFC West.
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 4: I don't see it. I'll take the Chiefs.
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 3: This is an insider game.
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 4: Insider, Yeah, this is.
• 1:36:54
  Speaker 3: An insider game. Something's up with this spread. I'm telling
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 3: you all. I'm going with Charges both way. Jim Harbaugh
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 3: has him ready to go on week one chat.
• 1:37:04
  Speaker 4: I couldn't absolutely see the Chargers winning. I just don't
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 4: really get your spread. Thing, Like the Chiefs never cover,
• 1:37:11
  Speaker 4: like that's their thing is Like everybody should have beaten
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 4: the Chiefs every game, but they find a way to win.
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 4: They never cover. Like where you're gonna lay like ten points? Okay,
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 4: no one would take Kansas City.
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 3: I don't know what that means.
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 4: But okay, like the spread like a divisional game and
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 4: a neutral site, a field goal, I don't know what
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 4: you're expecting to be favored by. That's what I don't get. Okay,
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 4: So I'm taking the Charges seven both ways.
• 1:37:35
  Speaker 3: It's supposed to be six or seven six seven?
• 1:37:39
  Speaker 4: He did it again that when he did on purpose,
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 4: I don't even.
• 1:37:44
  Speaker 3: Know what I'm doing.
• 1:37:45
  Speaker 7: Appealing to the younger democratics.
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 4: Good Sunday at one on Fox, Oh wait, we have
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 4: to skip over that one.
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 2: We do go ahead?
• 1:37:53
  Speaker 3: No mine, Okay, Sunday at one at Fox the Buccaneers
• 1:37:56
  Speaker 3: are at the Falcons.
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 4: Uh, just nothing other division game?
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 2: Great love it?
• 1:38:01
  Speaker 4: Uh, Tampa by one and a half.
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is one of those really tough games for me.
• 1:38:07
  Speaker 2: I always feel like to the Falcons are I agree
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 2: with Fred hard really stockpiling. I feel like some really
• 1:38:15
  Speaker 2: good pieces on both sides of the ball. You know,
• 1:38:17
  Speaker 2: dropped a couple edge guys this year in the draft
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 2: as well, Like I just am wondering, is it all
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 2: gonna come together with you know, Drake London and Michael
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 2: Pennix and Jon Robinson or you know, Tampa still got
• 1:38:28
  Speaker 2: great weapons too, and a mega Buca has really had
• 1:38:32
  Speaker 2: a good camp to You're gonna let baker Bag. Let
• 1:38:34
  Speaker 2: baker Bag with him in it, you know, absolutely, I'm
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 2: gonna get a little crazy. I'm gonna go with Atlanta
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 2: at home and a little bit of a little bit
• 1:38:43
  Speaker 2: of a changing not changing the guard, but I think
• 1:38:46
  Speaker 2: Atlanta's gonna put some pressure on Tampa. I'll take the
• 1:38:48
  Speaker 2: Falcons and uh, I'll take those one point five points. Please.
• 1:38:54
  Speaker 7: The home dogs are tempting, but I'm gonna.
• 1:38:57
  Speaker 4: Go Tampa Tampa. So I agree with Mike that I
• 1:39:04
  Speaker 4: think the Falcons are a team if Michael Pennix plays well.
• 1:39:08
  Speaker 4: Obviously they have a lot of talent and they could
• 1:39:11
  Speaker 4: be heard from. I think Tampa is better. I'm a
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 4: little concerned about their injuries to start the season, but
• 1:39:16
  Speaker 4: I'm going to take Tampa to get off to a
• 1:39:18
  Speaker 4: better start on the road, I'll take Tampa.
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna take the Falcons to win the game. Sunday
• 1:39:25
  Speaker 3: at one on Fox, the Bengals are at the.
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 4: Browns Cincinnati by five and a half.
• 1:39:33
  Speaker 3: Will they come out ready to play?
• 1:39:37
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna say they do this year. Fred, I'm gonna
• 1:39:39
  Speaker 2: I know that they've had rough starts in the past,
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 2: but they got Trey Hendrickson in order and hopefully that
• 1:39:44
  Speaker 2: has positive vibes for them going into Week one. Just
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 2: really hard to no disrespect to Joe Flacco, but to
• 1:39:51
  Speaker 2: pick Cleveland even with their really good defense.
• 1:39:54
  Speaker 1: Love Joe Burrow, Jamar Chase t Higgins.
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 3: Well, Joe too much fit be. Before the game, what
• 1:39:59
  Speaker 3: was the spread?
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 2: Five?
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 4: Five, five and a half.
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll lay the five to five.
• 1:40:05
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I think Cincinnati gets over that. Early season struggle
• 1:40:10
  Speaker 6: bus that.
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 7: They've been on. I think I'm gonna take them both ways.
• 1:40:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I am going to say that they're ready to
• 1:40:18
  Speaker 4: play with the changes that they made in the summer.
• 1:40:21
  Speaker 4: I'll take I'll take the Bengals, but I'm not laying
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 4: five and a half with that defense. I'll take the points.
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 4: So Cincinnati to win, Cleveland to cover.
• 1:40:30
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna take Cincinnati both ways, so Joe Cool gets
• 1:40:35
  Speaker 3: it done. CBS at one. The Dolphins are at the Colts.
• 1:40:43
  Speaker 1: Indye by one, and a Hey, I just I don't
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 1: know what to except for Miami.
• 1:40:48
  Speaker 2: I see all these you know, rumblings with drama with
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 2: Tyreek Hill and you know, is Mike McDaniel losing the
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 2: locker room and all that stuff, and I just, I mean,
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 2: they've been so good against the Patriots, and they seem
• 1:40:59
  Speaker 2: to beat the to bad teams, and they lose to
• 1:41:01
  Speaker 2: the good teams. I'm gonna go for a little bit
• 1:41:03
  Speaker 2: out on the limb though here. And I know in
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 2: Indianapolis is favorite, but I'm going to take Indianapolis. I'm
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 2: going to buy into a little bit of the Miami
• 1:41:08
  Speaker 2: hype and say they dropped this one in Week one.
• 1:41:13
  Speaker 1: I'll lay the one and a half.
• 1:41:16
  Speaker 7: Indie Indy.
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, this is probably the game I have the least
• 1:41:21
  Speaker 4: amount of clue about. I could see Daniel Jones playing
• 1:41:25
  Speaker 4: reasonably well for his new team and in the Colts
• 1:41:28
  Speaker 4: at home winning. I just think Miami is better, and
• 1:41:31
  Speaker 4: I know everybody thinks Miami is gonna win three games
• 1:41:33
  Speaker 4: this year. That seems to be the consensus. Much like
• 1:41:36
  Speaker 4: Kansas City, I think their demise is overrated. I don't
• 1:41:40
  Speaker 4: think Miami is necessarily a playoff team, but I see
• 1:41:43
  Speaker 4: them doing exactly what Mike said and continuing to beat
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 4: the bad teams and losing to good teams. And they're
• 1:41:49
  Speaker 4: always better early in the season than late because McDaniel
• 1:41:52
  Speaker 4: usually has some things offensively. I'll take Miami to win.
• 1:41:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Anyone who outside of South Florida or India Annapolis
• 1:42:00
  Speaker 3: who thinks they have a beat on this game is
• 1:42:02
  Speaker 3: just lying. But I'm going to take the Colts because
• 1:42:05
  Speaker 3: I want them to win.
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 4: So which brings up an interesting thing, Freddy. Yeah, you know,
• 1:42:10
  Speaker 4: we haven't made all the picks yet, but Patriots Great
• 1:42:14
  Speaker 4: chanced to enter Week two in first place by themselves.
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 3: There you go.
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 4: Miami loses to Indy Jets lose to Pittsburgh. Buffalo loses
• 1:42:22
  Speaker 4: to Baltimore. Ye boom roasted boom. That's how it happens.
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 4: I left out the Patriots part.
• 1:42:27
  Speaker 3: But Sunday at one on Fox, the Panthers are at
• 1:42:31
  Speaker 3: the Jaguars.
• 1:42:32
  Speaker 4: The Panthers Jacksonville by three and a.
• 1:42:35
  Speaker 2: Hey, it's another really tough one where Carolina maybe found
• 1:42:40
  Speaker 2: a little magic at the end of last year. No
• 1:42:42
  Speaker 2: feeling's gone. Now that they see that a little bit
• 1:42:44
  Speaker 2: as a blow. It opens the door for one of
• 1:42:46
  Speaker 2: my Holy Cross guys. They're Jalen Coker might get more
• 1:42:48
  Speaker 2: opportunity this year. But I'm gonna say this is Trevor Lawrence.
• 1:42:52
  Speaker 2: I don't want to see a back bounce back here.
• 1:42:53
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna say they're gonna win. Jacksonville's gonna win this
• 1:42:55
  Speaker 2: one this week. I'll lay the points as well. I
• 1:42:59
  Speaker 2: just I love what they've got around him, and if
• 1:43:01
  Speaker 2: he can put it together, and you play under the
• 1:43:04
  Speaker 2: new Duvall coach, maybe they'll put it together. Scurse some points.
• 1:43:09
  Speaker 3: I'll think people been talking about Travis Hunter, like how's
• 1:43:12
  Speaker 3: he doing well?
• 1:43:13
  Speaker 4: He got hurt, so he missed I know, like the
• 1:43:17
  Speaker 4: last preseason or the last two preseason games something like that.
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 4: But yeah, he's been he's been active, and I think
• 1:43:24
  Speaker 4: they planted on playing them both ways. Jaggs Jags, Jags,
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 4: Jaggs for Alex. Uh, I am going to take Jacksonville
• 1:43:33
  Speaker 4: to win the game. I'll take the hook the hook
• 1:43:36
  Speaker 4: three and a half. I'll take Carolina to lose by
• 1:43:38
  Speaker 4: a field goal.
• 1:43:39
  Speaker 3: Uh. This is going to be a bounced back season
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 3: for Okay.
• 1:43:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I agree. I think Jacksonville's Yeah, and
• 1:43:47
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna take then a lot of good things about
• 1:43:51
  Speaker 4: Liam Cohen. I don't know if any of them are warranted,
• 1:43:53
  Speaker 4: but I'm hearing a lot of good things.
• 1:43:55
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 1:43:56
  Speaker 8: Uh.
• 1:43:56
  Speaker 3: Sunday at one on CBS, the Cardinals are at the Saints.
• 1:44:03
  Speaker 4: Arizona by six and a.
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 3: Hay, that's a that's a big Week one spread on
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 3: the road. Yeah, it's gonna be helps you up the
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 3: respect that the Saints aren't getting.
• 1:44:14
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, they don't mean they didn't.
• 1:44:16
  Speaker 3: They don't have there, they don't have.
• 1:44:17
  Speaker 4: A lot of people think New Orleans is the worst
• 1:44:19
  Speaker 4: team in football. I would be one of those, Yeah, yeah,
• 1:44:21
  Speaker 4: I would.
• 1:44:22
  Speaker 2: I would feel say, Hunter rat what's his spencer Ler Rattler,
• 1:44:27
  Speaker 2: I'll take Arizona. I'll drop all six and a half
• 1:44:29
  Speaker 2: of those points.
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 4: All six and a half of them, the same thing. Yeah,
• 1:44:34
  Speaker 4: I agree with Fred. It is a pretty big uh oh,
• 1:44:37
  Speaker 4: you already did yours. Okay, pretty big spread on the
• 1:44:40
  Speaker 4: road in week one, but I'm going to take Arizona.
• 1:44:44
  Speaker 3: I am going to take Arizona as well both ways.
• 1:44:47
  Speaker 3: Sunday at one CBS Steelers.
• 1:44:49
  Speaker 4: At Jets, Pittsburgh by three.
• 1:44:53
  Speaker 3: Battle of the Quarterbacks.
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is another one of those games where I
• 1:44:57
  Speaker 2: just so hard to pick, but I think I'm going
• 1:45:00
  Speaker 2: to this for Week one. I'm going to go with
• 1:45:03
  Speaker 2: the only known quantity I feel like is Mike Tomlin
• 1:45:07
  Speaker 2: within this matchup and that defense. So I'm gonna take
• 1:45:09
  Speaker 2: Pittsburgh and I'll lay the points, give the Jets a
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 2: week one loss.
• 1:45:13
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I'll probably ride with Pittsburgh two until they give
• 1:45:16
  Speaker 7: me a reason not to.
• 1:45:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah. I'm kind of in between on Pittsburgh. You know,
• 1:45:22
  Speaker 4: people seem to be all in or all out on
• 1:45:24
  Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers. I think there'll be a continuation of what
• 1:45:27
  Speaker 4: we've seen Pittsburgh to be like a nine and eight
• 1:45:29
  Speaker 4: ten and seven kind of team. I don't think he'll
• 1:45:31
  Speaker 4: be a disaster. I think this is a spot for
• 1:45:34
  Speaker 4: the Jets though. I don't think very many people are
• 1:45:36
  Speaker 4: thinking much of the Jets, and this is when they
• 1:45:38
  Speaker 4: sort of they like to like pull the rug out
• 1:45:40
  Speaker 4: from under their fans, just to crush them a little
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 4: bit more. I think the Jets win outright in Week
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 4: one and still still have a tough year, It just
• 1:45:47
  Speaker 4: makes it all the much. It's much harder for Jets
• 1:45:50
  Speaker 4: fans to handle when they're they end up two and six.
• 1:45:53
  Speaker 3: Anyway, it was a tough game for hate watching because
• 1:45:55
  Speaker 3: you want both of you want both of them to lose.
• 1:45:58
  Speaker 3: You know, if the Jets in then Aaron Rodgers loses,
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 3: which is great. But if Aaron the Steelers win, then
• 1:46:04
  Speaker 3: the Jets lose, which is also great. So I want
• 1:46:08
  Speaker 3: them both to lose. Possible more, Yeah, I guess so,
• 1:46:12
  Speaker 3: So I'll go with the Steelers to win the game.
• 1:46:16
  Speaker 18: So that's it.
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 4: You know, we could definitely, do we have time, Yeah,
• 1:46:18
  Speaker 4: we could definitely have a good PFW argument about that.
• 1:46:21
  Speaker 4: What would you want more to lose right now? I
• 1:46:24
  Speaker 4: think if you think you're going to be on the
• 1:46:26
  Speaker 4: edge of the playoffs, you should be rooting against Pittsburgh.
• 1:46:28
  Speaker 3: That's right.
• 1:46:29
  Speaker 4: No one thinks the Jets are going to be in
• 1:46:30
  Speaker 4: the playoff people.
• 1:46:31
  Speaker 3: Right, that's right. Yeah, just saying yeah, it's true, it's true.
• 1:46:35
  Speaker 4: Just saying it's true.
• 1:46:36
  Speaker 3: Sunday at one on Fox, the Giants are at the Commanders.
• 1:46:41
  Speaker 4: Washington by six.
• 1:46:43
  Speaker 2: So this is another another one of these games where
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 2: like Paul, you brought up the Giants, so like you know,
• 1:46:48
  Speaker 2: making a case with Abdua Carter and you know they
• 1:46:50
  Speaker 2: got a pass rush now Dexter Lawrence. I mean, they
• 1:46:53
  Speaker 2: got Molik Neighbors. I mean they have some pieces and
• 1:46:56
  Speaker 2: does Russell Wilson still have a little bit in the
• 1:46:58
  Speaker 2: tank to you know, beat a really good Washington team.
• 1:47:02
  Speaker 5: I still think Washington's excellent.
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna take them to win, but I think Russell
• 1:47:06
  Speaker 2: Wilson and that defense will keep it close. I'll take
• 1:47:08
  Speaker 2: the six points for the Giants.
• 1:47:11
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm gonna do the same thing.
• 1:47:14
  Speaker 6: I'm not as high on Washington as I think I
• 1:47:17
  Speaker 6: was last year after seeing them here in preseason, and
• 1:47:20
  Speaker 6: it's just one of this is a game where I
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 6: just have to see how it plays out.
• 1:47:25
  Speaker 7: Like, what are the Giants gonna look like, you know.
• 1:47:28
  Speaker 5: How does it all come together? They've got talent.
• 1:47:30
  Speaker 4: It's just you know, folks, this is your this is
• 1:47:34
  Speaker 4: your upset special of the week.
• 1:47:36
  Speaker 2: Did I steal it on you?
• 1:47:37
  Speaker 3: Well, not upset, but go ahead.
• 1:47:39
  Speaker 4: Okay, I'm gonna take the Giants out right. Wow, I'm
• 1:47:43
  Speaker 4: gonna take the Giants out right. Have all the respect
• 1:47:46
  Speaker 4: in the world for Jaden Daniels. I do not think
• 1:47:48
  Speaker 4: he was a flash in the pan. I don't think
• 1:47:50
  Speaker 4: it's gonna be a sophomore slump. I just think it's
• 1:47:52
  Speaker 4: hard to win by yourself every week, and I don't
• 1:47:54
  Speaker 4: think that team's all that good. And I kind of
• 1:47:57
  Speaker 4: like what I this is probably I'm definitely gill of
• 1:48:00
  Speaker 4: what I always rail against putting too much stock in
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 4: something I saw in the summer, and I just felt
• 1:48:06
  Speaker 4: like that team was more about the guys they weren't
• 1:48:09
  Speaker 4: on the field. The reaction on the sideline of the
• 1:48:12
  Speaker 4: starters for the Giants throughout that game resonated with me
• 1:48:16
  Speaker 4: for some reason. I know it's stupid, it's meaningless, but
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 4: I was impressed that that Dable had that team engaged.
• 1:48:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a lock of the week, just on
• 1:48:27
  Speaker 3: the points though the Giants cover in this game, but
• 1:48:30
  Speaker 3: they don't get it done.
• 1:48:31
  Speaker 4: So we all like the Giants. It's interesting.
• 1:48:33
  Speaker 3: We do giants cover lock of the week? Take the points?
• 1:48:38
  Speaker 4: Should I put that down as your lock of the way, Yes,
• 1:48:40
  Speaker 4: that's why I said it.
• 1:48:43
  Speaker 3: This is what you say a lot of This is
• 1:48:45
  Speaker 3: an interesting game. Four or five on Fox. By the way,
• 1:48:51
  Speaker 3: I've skipped over the Patriots and we're moving to the
• 1:48:55
  Speaker 3: four o'clock window. Four or five on Fox, the Titans
• 1:48:59
  Speaker 3: are at Denver. Not only are the Denver at home,
• 1:49:04
  Speaker 3: they're the only team already at one and oh so
• 1:49:07
  Speaker 3: it's unbelievable have the league. But yeah, so Titans at Denver.
• 1:49:12
  Speaker 4: You're you're right to say this is an intriguing game.
• 1:49:15
  Speaker 4: Denver by eight and a half. I'd like to see
• 1:49:19
  Speaker 4: Tennessee play this year. I think this is a tough
• 1:49:21
  Speaker 4: spot though, Like a Denver is a tough place to
• 1:49:23
  Speaker 4: play because of the altitude and all.
• 1:49:25
  Speaker 2: The Cramward week one. Yeah, first start.
• 1:49:27
  Speaker 4: At start, but Denver by eight and a hey, yeah, I've.
• 1:49:29
  Speaker 2: Seen Tom Brady struggle their enough to know it's a
• 1:49:32
  Speaker 2: tough place to play. And Denver locking up, Nick Benito
• 1:49:35
  Speaker 2: taking care of some of their guys think fives will
• 1:49:37
  Speaker 2: be good. I'll take Denver and I'm gonna lay those points.
• 1:49:41
  Speaker 7: Yeah, biggest spread of the week, right, but yeah.
• 1:49:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, tied with Dallas and Philly. I'm going to take
• 1:49:52
  Speaker 4: Denver to win. Also, I'm gonna take Yeah, I'll take
• 1:49:57
  Speaker 4: Denver both ways. But I think Tennessee is going to
• 1:49:59
  Speaker 4: be improved. I you know, I think it's gonna be
• 1:50:03
  Speaker 4: the continuation of that rookie quarterback thing that gives a
• 1:50:06
  Speaker 4: team a lift. I think cam Wood's gonna be all right,
• 1:50:09
  Speaker 4: but tough, tough one to start in Denver.
• 1:50:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, chalk this game.
• 1:50:13
  Speaker 4: Uh, Broncos both ways, and I do think Denver is
• 1:50:18
  Speaker 4: a pretty good team.
• 1:50:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, four oh five on Fox, the forty nine Ers
• 1:50:22
  Speaker 3: at the Seahawks.
• 1:50:23
  Speaker 4: I can't get enough of those divisional games. Uh, San
• 1:50:26
  Speaker 4: Francisco by two and a hay.
• 1:50:29
  Speaker 2: So Robert Salad back. They lost some pieces there in
• 1:50:32
  Speaker 2: San Francisco. No more Depo or you know, Drake Greenlaw
• 1:50:35
  Speaker 2: missed last season. But I think San Francisco is gonna
• 1:50:38
  Speaker 2: have a bounce back year. I think they'll be back
• 1:50:41
  Speaker 2: in command to the FC West. I'm gonna take San
• 1:50:44
  Speaker 2: Francisco dropped those points me too. I'm curious to what
• 1:50:49
  Speaker 2: Donald looks like in Seattle, Like does that you know
• 1:50:51
  Speaker 2: what I mean?
• 1:50:51
  Speaker 5: Is he really good?
• 1:50:52
  Speaker 2: Or was that more Kevin O'Connell Minnesota justin Jefferson, you know, like,
• 1:50:58
  Speaker 2: what's it look like?
• 1:50:58
  Speaker 4: It's a good point. I'm going to take San Francisco
• 1:51:02
  Speaker 4: both ways as well. I do think the Niners are
• 1:51:06
  Speaker 4: a good team and a talented team that got absolutely
• 1:51:08
  Speaker 4: decimated last year. I think they bounced back and win
• 1:51:10
  Speaker 4: that division.
• 1:51:12
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna take the forty nine ers as well both ways.
• 1:51:14
  Speaker 3: I think that's a fairly easy one. CBS for twenty
• 1:51:18
  Speaker 3: five the Lions at the Packers.
• 1:51:22
  Speaker 4: This is actually a division game that I would be
• 1:51:24
  Speaker 4: good interested in. Green Bay by.
• 1:51:27
  Speaker 2: Two and a hay, just so many storylines to kind
• 1:51:30
  Speaker 2: of dig in on, starting with Ben Johnson leaving Detroit's offense.
• 1:51:35
  Speaker 2: What's not going to look like now? Still have a
• 1:51:37
  Speaker 2: lot of pieces in place, you know, green Bay. They
• 1:51:40
  Speaker 2: just got a big boost bringing in Micah Parsons. I
• 1:51:43
  Speaker 2: still don't totally believe in Jordan Love though. I just
• 1:51:46
  Speaker 2: I haven't seen the consistency from him yet. He still
• 1:51:49
  Speaker 2: seems so up and down. But I'm gonna go with
• 1:51:52
  Speaker 2: green Bay at home in this one to hold serve
• 1:51:55
  Speaker 2: Dan Campbill's been really good against the Packers, but I
• 1:51:58
  Speaker 2: think they just have a little bit of juice and
• 1:51:59
  Speaker 2: energy right now.
• 1:52:00
  Speaker 1: For week one at home, I'll take them and lay
• 1:52:02
  Speaker 1: the points.
• 1:52:03
  Speaker 7: I'm gonna take green Bay at home, but I'm gonna
• 1:52:04
  Speaker 7: give Detroit the points.
• 1:52:06
  Speaker 2: That's a close one.
• 1:52:07
  Speaker 4: I'm going to take Detroit both ways. This will be
• 1:52:10
  Speaker 4: the game, Mike that you and Fred will have to
• 1:52:12
  Speaker 4: carry the post game show as I'm watching it. So, yeah,
• 1:52:16
  Speaker 4: I do think the Lions have had the Packers number.
• 1:52:19
  Speaker 4: And I love what you said about Jordan Love. I
• 1:52:21
  Speaker 4: think he has talent, but I don't think he's put
• 1:52:23
  Speaker 4: it together, and I don't think he's ascended to a
• 1:52:25
  Speaker 4: level that some people have put him at.
• 1:52:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:52:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, my gut says Packers. I'm gonna stick with my gut.
• 1:52:32
  Speaker 3: Usually when I lose, it's when I go against my instincts.
• 1:52:36
  Speaker 3: My instincts say Packers win this game. Uh, CBS for
• 1:52:41
  Speaker 3: twenty five, the Texans are at the Rams.
• 1:52:44
  Speaker 4: The Lar the Lar by three by three.
• 1:52:48
  Speaker 3: How Stafford You're gonna play?
• 1:52:51
  Speaker 1: He's I just I worry about him breaking down.
• 1:52:55
  Speaker 4: I think the Rams are really good, but if he
• 1:52:57
  Speaker 4: doesn't play, it ain't really good.
• 1:52:58
  Speaker 2: And that's why.
• 1:52:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the same.
• 1:53:00
  Speaker 2: I'm going to go with an upset here on the road,
• 1:53:02
  Speaker 2: and I'm going to take Houston and c. J. Stroud
• 1:53:05
  Speaker 2: and I think they kind of continue their ascension and
• 1:53:09
  Speaker 2: putting things together. Solid football team down there with the Texans.
• 1:53:12
  Speaker 7: I'm taking that upset too.
• 1:53:15
  Speaker 4: Can't go against my guy. I'll take the Laar. I
• 1:53:18
  Speaker 4: think at least he plays to start the season. I
• 1:53:20
  Speaker 4: don't know how long, on how many games. Stafford at
• 1:53:22
  Speaker 4: thirty seven is gonna be able to play with a
• 1:53:24
  Speaker 4: bad back, but then they get off to a good start.
• 1:53:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna go with the Rams as well. For
• 1:53:29
  Speaker 3: this game eight twenty Sunday Night Football on NBC in Universo.
• 1:53:35
  Speaker 3: Good matchup the Ravens at the Bills, rematch of last
• 1:53:39
  Speaker 3: year's memorable Divisional Round game. Baltimore the road favorite by
• 1:53:45
  Speaker 3: one and a hay one and a hey, a lot
• 1:53:46
  Speaker 3: of people think Baltimore is the best team in football. No,
• 1:53:49
  Speaker 3: why talent, but like.
• 1:53:52
  Speaker 5: Specifically, is there something new that they've done?
• 1:53:54
  Speaker 3: No, but they they're perennial double digit team. Jim Harbor Harbaugh,
• 1:54:00
  Speaker 3: the head coach.
• 1:54:01
  Speaker 4: I think they've had fewer bad than some of the
• 1:54:04
  Speaker 4: other good teams.
• 1:54:05
  Speaker 5: I just I didn't know if something changed this year.
• 1:54:07
  Speaker 2: They're very popular pick right now and a lot of
• 1:54:09
  Speaker 2: people are very high, and I just, you know, I
• 1:54:11
  Speaker 2: get why continuation, but I shouldn't know what there wasn't
• 1:54:14
  Speaker 2: really a big change.
• 1:54:15
  Speaker 3: A lot of people think they have to get off
• 1:54:16
  Speaker 3: the hump at some point.
• 1:54:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, well, I don't think they're gonna be.
• 1:54:19
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna take the bills. I hear you at Home
• 1:54:22
  Speaker 2: as Home Dogs. Josh Allen, he's a married man now,
• 1:54:25
  Speaker 2: happy content with his life. I just had a great
• 1:54:28
  Speaker 2: movie Sinners made him cry. Yeah, it was that emotional, Paul,
• 1:54:32
  Speaker 2: I know. So Yeah, I'm gonna go with Josh. Allen's
• 1:54:34
  Speaker 2: ready to ready to drop bombs.
• 1:54:39
  Speaker 6: I really would like to see Baltimore win a Super Bowl,
• 1:54:42
  Speaker 6: which sounds weird to.
• 1:54:43
  Speaker 7: Say, but I think Buffalo is going to open it
• 1:54:47
  Speaker 7: up at it Home Dogs.
• 1:54:49
  Speaker 5: I'm going to go with Yeah.
• 1:54:51
  Speaker 4: I think both of these teams are excellent. I'm gonna
• 1:54:54
  Speaker 4: take Baltimore to win the opener. I think that they
• 1:54:58
  Speaker 4: get the regular season over Buffalo and then Buffalo sort
• 1:55:02
  Speaker 4: of turns the tables on them in the postseason. But
• 1:55:05
  Speaker 4: two really good teams. I think they'll both be playing
• 1:55:07
  Speaker 4: great well into January. It's a great Sunday night game,
• 1:55:10
  Speaker 4: one that I might even stay up to watch the
• 1:55:12
  Speaker 4: second half listening on.
• 1:55:13
  Speaker 2: You know, if you'll be jacked up off a Patriots win.
• 1:55:15
  Speaker 4: I mean if it's a blowout at halftime, you know,
• 1:55:17
  Speaker 4: like last year. I think Baltimore blew them out on
• 1:55:19
  Speaker 4: a Sunday night game and I didn't really stay up
• 1:55:22
  Speaker 4: to watch that.
• 1:55:23
  Speaker 3: Listen, listen if you're a Bills fan, watch your fingers,
• 1:55:27
  Speaker 3: because the windows slamming shut again.
• 1:55:31
  Speaker 5: Here we go, Here we go again.
• 1:55:34
  Speaker 4: Morell did you put together that montage I asked for

• 1:56:00
  Speaker 4: most perfect description ever.
• 1:56:02
  Speaker 3: He collapsed.
• 1:56:03
  Speaker 4: He just looks like he could poop a piece of
• 1:56:05
  Speaker 4: toilet like toilet paper, like, you know, he's so tight
• 1:56:10
  Speaker 4: yet it, Mike, He's so tight, but cheeks is so

• 1:56:32
  Speaker 2: On his broadcast? Maybe they have a bunch of the Manning.
• 1:56:35
  Speaker 4: Cast on ESPN two usually, but they don't do one
• 1:56:40
  Speaker 4: for every single game.
• 1:56:42
  Speaker 3: I don't know if they know what there is for
• 1:56:43
  Speaker 3: this week. I saw that.
• 1:56:44
  Speaker 4: Well, of course it's another division game, so why not
• 1:56:46
  Speaker 4: have a Manning's there to talk about?
• 1:56:48
  Speaker 3: Vikings at the Bears?
• 1:56:50
  Speaker 4: Uh, Minnesota by one and a hay.
• 1:56:53
  Speaker 2: So again, just another great match up. Ben Johnson going
• 1:56:57
  Speaker 2: there to Chicago. Plenty of talent around, Caleb Williams. Caleb
• 1:56:59
  Speaker 2: william has plenty of talent, you know, Colston Lovelin, Like
• 1:57:03
  Speaker 2: we talked about the other day that they just keep
• 1:57:05
  Speaker 2: bringing guys in and you know, is it all going
• 1:57:07
  Speaker 2: to come together in Minnesota?
• 1:57:08
  Speaker 3: Now?
• 1:57:09
  Speaker 2: It's we saw JJ McCarthy there, it's more impressed with him.
• 1:57:12
  Speaker 2: The second day, I think they'll be even better, you know,
• 1:57:15
  Speaker 2: obviously when they have Justin Jefferson in there. So I'm
• 1:57:17
  Speaker 2: going to take Minnesota to hold on and I'll lay
• 1:57:21
  Speaker 2: that point and a half. But I just I wonder
• 1:57:23
  Speaker 2: Chicago's gonna start getting it going because I think if
• 1:57:25
  Speaker 2: they do start getting it going, they could be really good.
• 1:57:29
  Speaker 7: Minnesota, Minnesota.
• 1:57:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna take the Bears at home. I think,
• 1:57:36
  Speaker 4: you know, one and a half. Not much of an upset.
• 1:57:39
  Speaker 4: I do like I do like Caleb Williams.
• 1:57:42
  Speaker 3: It feels bad.
• 1:57:43
  Speaker 4: I don't feel bad for him. I think I think
• 1:57:45
  Speaker 4: he's kind of a dude. I don't really feel bad
• 1:57:47
  Speaker 4: for you. No, I just think that because he cried,
• 1:57:52
  Speaker 4: his talent was lessened somehow. That's the disconnect that he
• 1:57:55
  Speaker 4: can get. But in terms of being like a leader
• 1:57:58
  Speaker 4: and all that stuff, I think that's warranted it.
• 1:58:00
  Speaker 2: No, I do not.
• 1:58:01
  Speaker 3: But I pity the fool correct very well.
• 1:58:05
  Speaker 4: Put No, and you know what this is. This is
• 1:58:07
  Speaker 4: really a pick, I think. And Monday night to open
• 1:58:10
  Speaker 4: the season, it's Soldier Field is not a great way
• 1:58:13
  Speaker 4: to make your debut. If you're JJ McCarthy, so this
• 1:58:15
  Speaker 4: is more of a pick against him than it is
• 1:58:18
  Speaker 4: for the Bears.
• 1:58:19
  Speaker 3: Fair enough, I think the Minnesota Vikings, off the momentum
• 1:58:23
  Speaker 3: of their preseason Week two win over the Patriots, ride
• 1:58:28
  Speaker 3: that wave.
• 1:58:28
  Speaker 4: That's interesting because they lost the game. They're saying they
• 1:58:32
  Speaker 4: ride that wave practice they lost the game. This is
• 1:58:38
  Speaker 4: like when he tried to say the Patriots actually beat
• 1:58:40
  Speaker 4: Houston in the last game of the year when Wes
• 1:58:42
  Speaker 4: Welker towards a cl Paul.
• 1:58:43
  Speaker 3: They lost the game, but they won the week.
• 1:58:46
  Speaker 4: Well, I don't know.
• 1:58:48
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 1:58:48
  Speaker 4: That's largely true from those most of the writers. I
• 1:58:52
  Speaker 4: wasn't there.
• 1:58:53
  Speaker 3: I wasn't there either.
• 1:58:54
  Speaker 4: That's true.
• 1:58:55
  Speaker 3: You weren't. I forgot, I went, I came late. I
• 1:58:57
  Speaker 3: was no But I think the vice was there.
• 1:58:59
  Speaker 4: He says that they won the Day two.
• 1:59:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Day two, I think the Vikings win the game.
• 1:59:04
  Speaker 3: I don't have faith in the in the Bears. Yeah.
• 1:59:07
  Speaker 4: I don't have a lot of faith in the Bears either.
• 1:59:09
  Speaker 3: This is kind of and this isn't a Caleb Williams thing,
• 1:59:11
  Speaker 3: by the way, I do.
• 1:59:12
  Speaker 4: Think Caleb Williams is pretty good.
• 1:59:13
  Speaker 2: I just think there's a lot of characters like Ben
• 1:59:15
  Speaker 2: Johnson strikes me as a character, Caleb Williams strikes me
• 1:59:18
  Speaker 2: as a character. DJ Moore is a character. Like There's
• 1:59:20
  Speaker 2: just a lot of guys with personalities that are unique
• 1:59:23
  Speaker 2: and maybe you will all go together. But all right, sorry,
• 1:59:26
  Speaker 2: it's one fifty nine.
• 1:59:28
  Speaker 3: Now we go back to the Patriots Sunday at one
• 1:59:32
  Speaker 3: on CBS for those of you who want to know
• 1:59:35
  Speaker 3: where to watch CBS. The Raiders at the Patriots.
• 1:59:40
  Speaker 4: Oh sorry, Patriots by three line move from two and
• 1:59:43
  Speaker 4: a hay to three.
• 1:59:45
  Speaker 3: Something's up?
• 1:59:46
  Speaker 2: Sums up? Where's the sharps? Where do the sharps know?
• 1:59:50
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with Patriots on this one. I think
• 1:59:51
  Speaker 2: it'll be back and forth game, maybe some sloppiness, you know,
• 1:59:55
  Speaker 2: big play here, big play there, But I think in
• 1:59:56
  Speaker 2: the end they pull it out a low scoring game.
• 2:00:00
  Speaker 2: I'm going to say twenty one to seventeen Patriots.
• 2:00:05
  Speaker 7: Now, do I hedge my bet from all access?
• 2:00:08
  Speaker 15: Or do I?
• 2:00:08
  Speaker 2: You can change the score rate, you can't change the pick.
• 2:00:10
  Speaker 5: Okay, I don't know if you.
• 2:00:12
  Speaker 4: Can do whatever you want.
• 2:00:15
  Speaker 2: Just right now.
• 2:00:16
  Speaker 4: I'm just gonna call it out if.
• 2:00:17
  Speaker 2: You do, and you're wearing a custom Patriots.
• 2:00:20
  Speaker 7: I know, Okay.
• 2:00:21
  Speaker 6: My thinking is last year we came out and won
• 2:00:24
  Speaker 6: and it gave everyone a ton of false hope, and
• 2:00:26
  Speaker 6: then the rest of the season was misery. So you
• 2:00:30
  Speaker 6: don't want them the first game and then it's only
• 2:00:32
  Speaker 6: up from there.
• 2:00:33
  Speaker 2: And I don't know, you don't have to kid, it's me, Alex,
• 2:00:35
  Speaker 2: it's your pick.
• 2:00:36
  Speaker 6: I just look at the Raiders, and I think a
• 2:00:38
  Speaker 6: lot of people overlook this game. But there's something to
• 2:00:41
  Speaker 6: be said that Pete Carroll and Gino have been together
• 2:00:44
  Speaker 6: quite a while, and I don't know, I could see
• 2:00:49
  Speaker 6: Vegas twenty seven Patriots twenty four torture.
• 2:00:54
  Speaker 2: He's tortured.
• 2:00:57
  Speaker 3: I don't look up the number of times a game
• 2:00:59
  Speaker 3: that the Raiders were involved in that one of the
• 2:01:01
  Speaker 3: teams had twenty four points. You'll be amazed.
• 2:01:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's amazing. I'm going to take the Patriots in
• 2:01:10
  Speaker 4: this game in a similar kind of game that Mike
• 2:01:13
  Speaker 4: just described. I think that they have the home field
• 2:01:16
  Speaker 4: will be impactful. I think there's a lot of energy here.
• 2:01:21
  Speaker 4: Fred sort of talked about there should be more excitement.
• 2:01:24
  Speaker 4: I think there's a lot of excitement for the start
• 2:01:26
  Speaker 4: of the season, and I think they're going to get
• 2:01:28
  Speaker 4: a good environment to play in twenty three seventeen New England,
• 2:01:34
  Speaker 4: but not an easy game. Game that could go either way,
• 2:01:36
  Speaker 4: absolutely toss up game. I'm hoping it doesn't come down
• 2:01:40
  Speaker 4: to a field goal because the Raiders have an enormous
• 2:01:43
  Speaker 4: edge with Daniel Carlson, so I'm hoping it's a six
• 2:01:46
  Speaker 4: point thing and they need a touchdown at the end.
• 2:01:48
  Speaker 4: But I think the running game for the Patriots is
• 2:01:51
  Speaker 4: a little better than Ashton genty for the Raiders.
• 2:01:55
  Speaker 3: Er Okay, yes, Patriots twenty four twenty, So they squeak
• 2:02:02
  Speaker 3: out the win and the cover. It'll be a tough game.
• 2:02:07
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I hope I'm wrong.
• 2:02:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it'll be a tough game. They'll be at moments
• 2:02:10
  Speaker 3: there where might look a little like last year offensive wise,
• 2:02:14
  Speaker 3: but there'll be other bright moments. So have no fear.
• 2:02:18
  Speaker 3: Patriots pull it out twenty four to twenty. Another game
• 2:02:21
  Speaker 3: in which there's twenty four is involved with the Raiders.
• 2:02:24
  Speaker 4: I'm going to need to hear more about this off
• 2:02:26
  Speaker 4: are okay?
• 2:02:28
