  Speaker 1: of things around here. Uh, went on the Spirit of Boston.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: That was fun. Some of the tool ships okay, but
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: that was that was a fun night. And went down
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: to Plymouth. A friend of mine as a beach house
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: down there. Spent the day down and that was good time.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: But nothing.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Did you see the baby?

• 2:48
  Speaker 1: What is so great about the bit?

  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: That was about it. I did a couple of radio hits,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: as as you like to say, on the sad, sad
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: holiday fill in host time.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Nothing sadder than the holiday fill in host.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, nothing more necessary for me though, the sad holiday filling.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah sure, Evan, what about you?
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: Spent a week on the vineyard, which was really nice.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Whereabouts on the vineyard.
• 3:18
  Speaker 6: Our house we got an airbnb, not like a big house,
• 3:22
  Speaker 6: but we were in Oak Bluffs this year.
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: But we you know, we pop around.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what's your favorite?
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: You know, I I haven't.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Been to the vineyards since I was in high school,
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: so I have no idea, what's going on there?
• 3:35
  Speaker 7: What's your best restaurant that you.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Go to home?
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: Oh?
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: So, Actually, we tried a new restaurant this year that
• 3:41
  Speaker 6: that quickly arose up the list.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: I'll give them a shout out.
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: Pawnee House and Oak Bluffs and they have great food there,
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: great like kind of.
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: Like Latin American flavor.
• 3:53
  Speaker 6: I would say I had a rice and beans bowl
• 3:56
  Speaker 6: that was fantastic, But I would say honey House is
• 4:01
  Speaker 6: probably right at the top of our list now. It's
• 4:04
  Speaker 6: one of our new favorites. We went twice. Actually, we
• 4:06
  Speaker 6: liked it so much.
• 4:07
  Speaker 7: Does a rice and bean bowls sound good to you?
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: I need a little steak in there. Yeah.
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: No, it had.
• 4:14
  Speaker 6: Had sausage actually okay, and it was really really good.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: And I don't prove. I don't know if that would
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: surprise you, but I have a every once in a while.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: It wouldn't. It's got to have meat it I don't need. Yeah,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: I would definitely have to have either steak or chicken. Yeah,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: but yeah, I don't mind a rice bowl.
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah. There.
• 4:33
  Speaker 6: We also had a place called the Covington. It was
• 4:36
  Speaker 6: an Eggertown right on the main street and Eggertown and
• 4:39
  Speaker 6: different another new place that we tried. But like if
• 4:41
  Speaker 6: you want, like the o G places like Nancy's Lookout Tavern,
• 4:44
  Speaker 6: those places are all really good too, and those will
• 4:47
  Speaker 6: have more you know, Pol's Burgers and things like that,
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: you know, but like that, the new places were good
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: this year. I feel like the it's becoming a little
• 4:57
  Speaker 6: bit more of a vacation destination versus like, oh I
• 5:01
  Speaker 6: have a buddy who has a house there, you know,
• 5:02
  Speaker 6: or something like that. And so the restaurants were seeing
• 5:05
  Speaker 6: over the years like they're getting nicer and nicer, like
• 5:08
  Speaker 6: dinner style restaurants that people go on on vacation.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: So it was pretty good, Coop, all right, Duce and
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: I were here with Alex.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: So what was what was the theme of the week.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: Oh, it was a lot of World Cup and everything else,
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: everything but football.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: So it was funny. Like I ended up golfing. That
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: was the last thing I did on my vacation. I
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: golfed on Sunday. So I watched all those matches and
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: I did watch a I mean I don't know, probably
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: more than a dozen, I would say, of those matches,
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: and I didn't see one second of the final. No wow.
• 5:42
  Speaker 7: I watched and I watched it.
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: I watched most of the final, but yeah, it was
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: I mean, I just it's one of those things we
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: talked about. Was Spain dominated the whole time, and I
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: was like, man, if this gets the penalty case, they've
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: got a chance.
• 5:53
  Speaker 7: Well this is what Argentina's been doing.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: But Spain is just a great defense, and so they
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: couldn't get away with it.
• 5:59
  Speaker 6: They they had a few, they had one goal allowed,
• 6:02
  Speaker 6: one goal the entire tournament. Yeah, not just in one
• 6:06
  Speaker 6: goal the entire tournament. Belgium scored against them, the only
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: goal they allowed the entire tournament.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Mike was telling me that Argentina didn't even have a
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: shot on goal till late the nineties. Oh, I thought
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: they didn't even have one at home. I don't even
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: know if that was now, it was late.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: But anyway, the World Cup has gone. It was a
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: good World Cup. I'll give fee for their props. But
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: we're on to football here, just so you know. We're
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: on our regular schedule this week, twelve to two, Tuesday
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: and Thursday, Catch twenty two on Wednesday twelve to two,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: but we'll also be live on Saturday for the practice,
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: So starting at about nine to forty five. On Saturday,
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: we'll be live through practice until they tell us we
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: have to turn our cameras off. So looking forward to
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: that on Saturday to kick off practice, and then we'll
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: be back on the thirtieth for the first day of
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: pads Thursday, I believe thuresday, so well again, we'll be
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: live on that Thursday, and then joint practices down the road.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: But much more to come there. But so Tuesday Thursday
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: this week and Saturday bonus, and we.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Will maintain our Tuesday Thursday schedule during camp. Most of
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: those games, most of those shows will be from one
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: to three. We will have a slight time change this week,
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: as Fred said, is normal. Next week when there's a
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: day of practice that we have a show, that show
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: will be pushed back an hour.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because practices are in the morning. Give these guys
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: time to watch practice, do the post practice stuff, and
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: then you know, we'll go on at one o'clock and
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: go right into what we saw.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, and we'll have a quick camp cast videost
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: alway good way, So you want a five minute breakdown
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: of what we saw, we'll bang those out too. So
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: now it's hard to believe it's back already. I mean,
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: it's happens quick. Excited to see this new team Forest
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: and Foxboro. Of course, came out on Friday.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: We came on a Friday. Got about eighty thousand people
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: have watched it so far. Everyone loves it, of course,
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: and I'm sure we'll pick up more. Another episode will
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: be coming out before the season. Yeah, so we're we're
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: doing it. And what we hope to do this season
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: with Forge that's going to be different from last season
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: is we'll have some sprinkled out throughout the season, so
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: you're gonna get in season Forged as well.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: I was talking to Have though, I just my favorite
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: part of all that is just anytime you get to
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: hear Rabel talk to the team.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, it was my same observation.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: From when Bill did the NFL Film's Football Life and
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: in the two thousand and nine season. Any chance I
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: get to hear a coach talking to their team and
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: how they're trying to motivate them, what they're highlighting is
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: being important.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: That's that's my favorite part.
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: And just you know, as Ev was saying, it's just
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: you can see why Rabel commands a room the way
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: he does and why guys want to play for him.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's just sc He seems to know the
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: feel of the team. And it just comes back to me,
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: how is this season going to be special? Last year
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: which just so special? There were so many little things
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: Drake Drake May May that thing happened, and you know,
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: just all the good vibes that seemed to continue to build.
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: Really felt like it kind of peaked for me around
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: that Giants game. You know, when it was here, the
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: atmosphere was electric. But how are they going to recapture
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: some of that magic this year?
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: You know?
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: And how do you is it seems so organic to
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: me last year, things like the Warriors and all that
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: stuff that happened. It never felt forced like oh we
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: need a team motto. You know, it's these things kind
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: of just happened, right, So can they do it again?
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: Can they find that kind of special vibe?
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Because I do think Digs like the organic stuff to
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: me was the stuff that Digs sort of started at
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: this time we always last year and kind yeah, I
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: mean I think that you know, the way he sort
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: of took ownership of that wide receiver room and then
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: you know, as you got to you know, like in Buffalo.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: You could see it on the field, manifested on the field,
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: the way he got the team ready to go, and
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: I think that was really organic. I'm not as much
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: of a sucker for the other stuff as you are,
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: you know, like the the road thing, and you know,
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: like to me, like, they played really well. But I
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: think that's going to be difficult to duplicate because I
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: think Diggs was a big part of that and he's
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: you know, and he's not there. Now. I'm not questioning
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: why Diggs isn't here. I mean, I think we kind
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: of all have an idea of why that is. I
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: think they upgraded, to be honest with you, in terms
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: of talent. But it will be interesting to see how
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: they replace that off the field.
• 10:21
  Speaker 6: That's the biggest like non football thing, you know, Like
• 10:25
  Speaker 6: how do they kind of go about creating that energy
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: again that they had last year. And nothing'll happen, It's
• 10:32
  Speaker 6: not going to be exactly like last year. But at
• 10:36
  Speaker 6: the same time, that was such a big part of
• 10:38
  Speaker 6: why they kind of overachieved, was because they had this
• 10:41
  Speaker 6: sort of galvanizing feeling to them. It's one of the
• 10:44
  Speaker 6: best locker rooms I've ever been in, Like just the
• 10:46
  Speaker 6: vibe every day when we got to go in there,
• 10:50
  Speaker 6: you know, can you recreate that?
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: Or you know, are they just better?
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: You know?
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: I think that that's part of it too, is that
• 10:55
  Speaker 6: they might just be more talented this year than they
• 10:56
  Speaker 6: were last year, and that might help it out as well.
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: But how does Vrabel?
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: What are the vrabelisms that he's able to come up with?
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: One that I got one that struck me from at
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: least that first episode of Forge is journey. So he
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: stressed that each guy, you are all gonna have your
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: own journey that you're in charge of. Uh So, I
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: think that was kind of a theme that I had.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: But then if everybody has their own journey, the team
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: also has a journey, So what will be this season's journey?
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I agree with Paul's bagger point though,
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: is that it's all fueled by winning and success, and
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: you know it's and that then its just it started
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: the snowball, you know, And I think that's you know,
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: not saying these are the little fun slogans are why
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: you're winning games, But that's the byproduct of it, and
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: then it all feeds into it and you get that
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: vibe that you felt like in that Giants game where
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: you're like, this team is just right and high right now,
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: you know, and then they fought some injuries and things
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: were tough. But you know, I just I that that
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: to me is exciting. And I mean, and then just
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: to go back to the football part of it, as
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: Paul like, just the talent on the field, That's what
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: I'm excited to see this week, aj Brown out there
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: on the field, you know. And I mean, of course
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: the first thing is, of course, where's Gonzales and where's
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: gay backets?
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: So those are the first two pieces that I'm looking for.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: And you know, you talked about who's going to emerge
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: as a leader to kind of take the place of Diggs.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: I think Bayered looks like already he's vocal and will
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: be part of that. I think Woodson also, you know,
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: I think you might see him kind of emerge a
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: little bit. He seems to have a confidence about him
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: even as a second year player. That really's coming through
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: for me anyway. On offense, not sure, not true. I mean,
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: obviously Drake may but I.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Think that's the answer because you know, now you know,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: year three with a great year under his belt, I
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: think you already sort of took some ownership of that
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: last year. You guys agree, you know, like that ownership
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: of the offense. I think he'll be that much more
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: comfortable in year two of the system, I think. Yeah,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: I think you should see more on that's on that
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: part of the leadership part of.
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: It from mey, Yeah, you know, just being the conductor
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: of the offense and you know, getting the ball out
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: to guys. And I mean it sounds stupid because I
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: feel like we spent so much time in the early
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: days talking about, you know, we need to push the
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: ball down the field like this is you know, when
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: they were bad, like they just they had nothing down
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: the field, right, it was just a struggle.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: And now I'm almost looking at it.
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: Like can Drake be patient and just take the little
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: underneath easy safe, you know, And they dig it into
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: some of his stats from last year over the last
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: couple of days, like, you know, that's.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: An area I think he can improve, I think.
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: And that's a way that you can really turn the
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: screws on a defense where you know you're just gonna
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: dink and dunk at times, you know, And that and
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: that I think is a weird thing to say, like,
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: I hope he can dink and dunk a little more,
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: but I think there is a time to dink and dunk,
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: and you know, maybe it feeds into one of the
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: things Evan talked a lot about this offseason, which is
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: just tempo and you know, trying to push the pace
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: a little bit at certain times. And you know that's
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: that to me, will just show him continuing to develop.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: And you know, we said last year, I remember Paul
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: talking about the Sea't going in and saying, you know,
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: I think they'll win. I don't know whatever you said
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: like nine ten games like that, but fourteen I think
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: you were, you know, measured as I was. But you
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: said the wild card was Drake May. And if Drake
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: May played well, then you know double digit wins are
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: on the table. And you know, this year is it.
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: We saw that he has all the potential. Can he
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: do it? Tougher slate, a little more pressure, Teams have
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: more film on him now they're going to look at
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: what he did last year and say this is how
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: we got to approach this guy this year. So there's
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: gonna be some new things. You know that he's going
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: to get thrown out him, He's got to be.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, we've talked about it before, and Drake has
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: talked about it, but the fact that he's got a
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: coordinator again that he had the year before, which has
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: never happened in all of his career from college on up,
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: I think that's got to really benefit him. That he's
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: going to hear the same language, the same philosophy, the
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: same schemes, and he's going to be able to build.
• 14:50
  Speaker 7: On what he did last year.
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: That's the key.
• 14:53
  Speaker 7: It's up here.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: You said it.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: He's got the physical we've seen it. He can do
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: it all, but we've got to see what he can
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: do in those most critical moments of the game against
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: the best competition. That's what kind of we're still waiting for.
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: Can I put negative deuce hat on for just the
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: one second, like.
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: Is anybody afraid? Is anybody afraid he's gonna regret?
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying I'm afraid, but I just think it's
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: a worthwhile conversation to say, he played out of his
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: mind last year and it was unexpected the level he
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: played at.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: Is there a chance that he was punching above his weight?
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: And he's gonna get into more games this year against
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: tougher defenses, and it's not going to be quite as
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: good as well.
• 15:30
  Speaker 6: Statistical regression is different from like eye test regressions. Thank you, Like,
• 15:34
  Speaker 6: he's not going to complete seventy two percent of his
• 15:36
  Speaker 6: passes again, I think we can all say that pretty comfortably.
• 15:40
  Speaker 6: Is he going to lead the league in every category?
• 15:43
  Speaker 4: Again? Statistically? Probably not, but he might be better?
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, right, and he will be better. The only way
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: he's not better from the eye test is if this
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: offensive line is a disaster, and there's no way it is.
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: So he'll he'll be a better quarterback than he was
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: last year. May not translate into pure numbers, but you're
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: going to look at him and say he's he's getting
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: better mentally.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah. You guys really do set me up for these things,
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: don't you. Okay, I'm just back. I have to wait ahead,
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: go ahead. There's no put like what Mike said, Like
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: we can all agree that we think the world of
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: Drake May and that we think he'll be better in
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: the year two. But there's no Mike's scenario that he's
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: trying to paint, you know, a little devil's advocate. Sure,
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: that's not possible. It's it's not possible, so like it's not.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: Of course, it's not possible that he completed seventy two percent.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: We're fifty eight percent in the play. We're here to
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: give our opinion based on my opinion is he will
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: not aggress regress. Okay, but you said it wasn't possible.
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: I don't think so, I said, unless the offensive line is.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: I don't think he's going to regress either. I think
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: he's going to get better. I think the guy's incredibly talented,
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: and like I said, I think all of us think
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: the world of Evan. You have some good stuff with
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: the numbers, though. I wanted to set you up for
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: that because you know, I get a popsicle headache, but
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: maybe some people might be interested in it.
• 17:07
  Speaker 6: Yeah, we well, Deuce and I did our written previews
• 17:11
  Speaker 6: and then the three of us did our video previews of
• 17:13
  Speaker 6: each position, and we released the quarterback one today and
• 17:17
  Speaker 6: I just looked into some of the numbers of you know,
• 17:19
  Speaker 6: what were some of the things you know that defenses
• 17:21
  Speaker 6: did against Drake May that he wasn't so good against.
• 17:25
  Speaker 6: And Seattle kind of did it in the Super Bowl,
• 17:27
  Speaker 6: and that's the best defense in football, so when they
• 17:30
  Speaker 6: did it and they did it well.
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: It didn't look good.
• 17:32
  Speaker 6: And the two big coverages that they called against him
• 17:35
  Speaker 6: were Cover six, which quarter quarter half and we talk
• 17:38
  Speaker 6: about that, and cover zero you all out pressure and
• 17:41
  Speaker 6: those were the two kinds of things that they jostled
• 17:44
  Speaker 6: between in the Super Bowl that gave Drake May a
• 17:46
  Speaker 6: lot of trouble.
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: And it's a blueprint league.
• 17:49
  Speaker 6: Their teams are going to look at that Super Bowl
• 17:51
  Speaker 6: tape and say, how can we replicate?
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: What can we replicate?
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: And that's the Let's talk about that cover zero for
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: a second, right because during the Sea and now, granted
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: it wasn't as good a defense as Seattle, but Drake
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: did have success when he was blitzed like he was.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: He had really good numbers when he was blitzed. You
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: have to look at that offensive line and how it
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: was playing in that Super Bowl and you have to
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: say part of it is, I don't think he had
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: a lot of confidence in what was in front of
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: him at that point in the season.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 18:27
  Speaker 6: I think though when you talk about cover zero, though,
• 18:29
  Speaker 6: they're sending too many people, so you're not talking about
• 18:33
  Speaker 6: I know, you're not talking about actually getting hat on
• 18:35
  Speaker 6: a hat at that point. I know, so you know
• 18:37
  Speaker 6: with Seattle what they were doing. You know, they were
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: setting the guys off the edges, and in the Patriots system,
• 18:43
  Speaker 6: you're you're locked to one side, you're sliding to the other,
• 18:45
  Speaker 6: and then the back has somebody the back to dual reading.
• 18:48
  Speaker 6: If both guys come, you're hot, like there's nobody left.
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: And then then it's up to the quarterback.
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: And the receivers.
• 18:54
  Speaker 6: You know, the receivers need to know that they need
• 18:56
  Speaker 6: to side toust, they need to turn around and look
• 18:58
  Speaker 6: for the football. So you know that that's a big
• 19:00
  Speaker 6: part of it too. Like you know, we can look
• 19:02
  Speaker 6: at the all twenty two from the Super Bowl and say,
• 19:04
  Speaker 6: Pop Douglas is wide open down the field, but he's
• 19:07
  Speaker 6: thirty yards down the field and there's a guy in
• 19:09
  Speaker 6: Drake May's face in two seconds right, Like, that's not open.
• 19:12
  Speaker 6: So it was not blaming Pop, but just in general,
• 19:15
  Speaker 6: for those guys supposed to turn around and look for
• 19:17
  Speaker 6: the ball, that have been more advantageous than running down
• 19:20
  Speaker 6: the field thirty yards in a straight line, you know
• 19:22
  Speaker 6: that sort of thing. So all of those things to
• 19:25
  Speaker 6: me are more chess match related, and Seattle executes it
• 19:29
  Speaker 6: to a level than not a lot of teams can,
• 19:31
  Speaker 6: like they might face that in the season against Miami
• 19:35
  Speaker 6: or the Jets, and and those teams aren't gonna do
• 19:38
  Speaker 6: it as well. But when you get to you know,
• 19:40
  Speaker 6: we talk about getting against these really good teams that
• 19:43
  Speaker 6: that's what's coming next, you know, is Seattle Week one,
• 19:47
  Speaker 6: and you know, so on and so forth, that these
• 19:49
  Speaker 6: teams are going to have good defenses and they're gonna
• 19:52
  Speaker 6: be able to do those types of things. So those
• 19:54
  Speaker 6: two coverages were the only two coverages that he had
• 19:57
  Speaker 6: a negative EPA against. Cover six and Cover zero. Everything
• 20:00
  Speaker 6: else he was near the top of the league, off
• 20:02
  Speaker 6: the charts against.
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: So that's what.
• 20:04
  Speaker 6: Everybody's gonna call, you know, like that that they're gonna
• 20:07
  Speaker 6: get into games against the Patriots and they're gonna call
• 20:09
  Speaker 6: all these different things and see not only Drake May
• 20:12
  Speaker 6: but Josh McDaniel's like all off season. I hope that
• 20:15
  Speaker 6: those two guys were coming for with answers, you know, like,
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: how are we gonna be this?
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: So I'll just throw this out there, snap comes and
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: all of a sudden it's Cover zero and those guys
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: come from both sides. How how is it communicated to
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: guys already in their route that they have to you know,
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: cut that route and turn like how how is how.
• 20:38
  Speaker 7: Do you do that?
• 20:38
  Speaker 6: So it depends on the play call, right, Like, so
• 20:40
  Speaker 6: some play calls have a hot route where one guy
• 20:43
  Speaker 6: is hot and that guy you know you're gonna throw
• 20:46
  Speaker 6: to that guy Specifically, other play calls, and usually with
• 20:49
  Speaker 6: the Patriots, they have sight adjustments, so like when you
• 20:51
  Speaker 6: see a guy blitz over you, you're going to change
• 20:54
  Speaker 6: your route because you know that the quarterback is hot.
• 20:57
  Speaker 6: So those are things that just come with everybody kind
• 21:01
  Speaker 6: of being on the same page. And sometimes also you
• 21:03
  Speaker 6: could you know, use the running back. Like the running
• 21:06
  Speaker 6: back can either stay in the block, but if you
• 21:08
  Speaker 6: see cover zero coming, you could also sneak the running
• 21:11
  Speaker 6: back out and try to you know, hit him in
• 21:13
  Speaker 6: the flat or something like that.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: So it's not really up to the quarterback.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: It's up to the receivers and who would be about
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: to recognize, Oh, this just happened in front of me,
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: so I know, I mean, this is what's going to
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: happen behind me.
• 21:24
  Speaker 7: I need to adjust.
• 21:25
  Speaker 6: I'd say all the above, and I think that you know,
• 21:28
  Speaker 6: not to always compare it. But the thing that Brady
• 21:31
  Speaker 6: had was a James White, a Julian Edelman, you know,
• 21:35
  Speaker 6: guys like that that had that cerebralness to them that
• 21:39
  Speaker 6: those guys were often on top of those different types
• 21:41
  Speaker 6: of things, and that's where this group needs to get.
• 21:43
  Speaker 6: There's a lot of young players, there's a lot of
• 21:45
  Speaker 6: players that are inexperience in the system. You know, they
• 21:48
  Speaker 6: don't have ten years of data to go off of
• 21:51
  Speaker 6: like those guys did at times. So you know that
• 21:53
  Speaker 6: those are the little things that again I don't know
• 21:56
  Speaker 6: if every team's going to be able to execute it
• 21:57
  Speaker 6: to the level that Seattle did, but when you get
• 22:00
  Speaker 6: into the season, they're going to look at it and say,
• 22:03
  Speaker 6: this is what gave him trouble, you know, in the playoffs,
• 22:05
  Speaker 6: in the super Bowl, things like that, and this is
• 22:07
  Speaker 6: what we're going to try to.
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: Replicated focus on pre snap and them giving him the
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: tools that when these things are happening, that they can
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: be all on the same page. And I think that
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: for a second year quarterback in this system, that that's
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: a progression that you should look for. You know, I
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: think last year these things were probably coming and he
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: didn't have all the answers yet. I think he had
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: some of the answers, but you know, this year the
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: expectations should be that he gets them out of bad plays.
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: I mean, I saw Bert Brew had a report kind
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: of saying the same thing we've been talking about of
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: what the expectations are for Drake May and your two
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: to really master this system.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: And you know you want to see more with his
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: legs the same or less with his legs.
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: Same, I mean about the same, other than the ball
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: should have been out you had a guy quick, you
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: shouldn't have to tuck and run.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: I like the way you said that. I would say
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: roughly the same. But I you know, if he's passing
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: up throwers that are there to run and it ends
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: up being the same running, like I would be sort
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: of disappointed in that. But the bigger thing to me
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: is he's got to protect the ball better. Yeah, he
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: led the league in fumbles. I think he had fifteen
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: fumbles combined. Like, that's a lot of fumbles, and that's
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: an area Like we're talking about stats, like his stats
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: might regress, Like I could see him completing seventy two
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: percent of his passes. Again, I just can't see him
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: doing it the way he did it last year, along
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: with the ridiculously high percentage of completions on downfield throws
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: like that, to me, is very hard to replicate. But
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: you can be more efficient, and you can protect the
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: ball better and do things like that, even if the
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: offensive line doesn't come together the way we think it will,
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: Like I, this wasn't like to me, a regression isn't
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: solely responsible at the offensive line, Like I have a
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: feeling Fred and I if these bad things happen, Fred
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: and I, you're gonna have semantic arguments on postgame shows
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: like it's all because you know it's because of the
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: offensive line, or like now he just made a bad play,
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: because both of those things can be true.
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what about design runs for him? You want to
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: see more of those the red zone goal line?
• 24:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah, red zone short yardage?
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: I mean one play like kind of stuff. I mean,
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: maybe being better on some of the QB sneaks. I
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: don't think he was, you know, great, didn't have a
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: great feel for those last year.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: That's a good point. That's another spot I think you
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: could know.
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: I think I think it's a good sign that we
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: can look at the MVP runner up and point out
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: a bunch of different things that we think he can
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: improve to maybe offset some of the situational things that
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: kind of felt their way last year, which felt like
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: they got a lot of breaks last year.
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I hope he keeps scrambling, keep running.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: Me too. I think that's a big part of his game.
• 24:36
  Speaker 6: And I think that that's defensively you have to account
• 24:39
  Speaker 6: for it somehow, whether your pass rush changes, whether you're
• 24:43
  Speaker 6: spying him, you know, whatever the case may be. I
• 24:45
  Speaker 6: think that that gives you a big advantage if the
• 24:48
  Speaker 6: quarterback is a threat, and it's mostly I don't think
• 24:51
  Speaker 6: that he's he's not a designed runner in my mind,
• 24:54
  Speaker 6: like he's not Lamar Jackson, where like you're you know,
• 24:57
  Speaker 6: read options and things like that are going to be
• 24:59
  Speaker 6: a big part of it. He's a scrambler. He's like
• 25:01
  Speaker 6: a pure scramb. I'm one with you, and I don't
• 25:03
  Speaker 6: want to take that away from him.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: And if you guys remember, you know before everybody took
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: some time off, they had that huge seth Wickersham piece
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: you know from the Broncos. Did you read it? I
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: think you were away.
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it was funny.
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: It was way too long, and it was it was
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: it was right up your ally because we're going to
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: have these paragraph along plays that we're just going to
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: throw them in there every time. We have no idea
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: what any of it.
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: Nobody works hard than Sean Payton, right.
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: But anyway, one of the big takeaways is something that
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: haven't just touched on about that being a huge part
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: of Drake May's game, And obviously that was the number
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: one thing in the scouting report was they wanted to
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: make sure that they didn't let May hurt them with
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: his legs. And there was I mean, in a game
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: that only had one real scoring drive, the big play
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: on thus scoring drive that gave him the go ahead
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: field goal, that's the only scoring drive the Patriots had
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: the whole game, and it was a twenty eight yard scramble.
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: So like, you can succeed the whole day executing your
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: game plan, let's not let Drake May hurt us with
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: his legs. But one play he has this, as Evan
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: likes to say, superpower, and I don't want to take
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: that away from it. I think that's a huge game boot.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, and I it was over then I didn't
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: care about that. But like they don't score, like they
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: don't score well.
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: Best won the game.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: But I mean my point is that let's put it.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: Let's let's say he got five yards instead of seven,
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: they punt, the game was over. It didn't matter.
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: I liked it.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: But the twenty eight yard run. They don't get the
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: field goal without that, right, and that's the only score.
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: Remember the touchdown came on the fumble for Johnny. I
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: almost said Jared stidhamy is going to call him one
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: of my pet names, but I probably shouldn't say that
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: on the air. The kid, yep, if that fumble gave them,
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: you know with the scoring drivers like twelve yards or
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: something like that. Like, so the only one drive they
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: had the whole day, Yeah, was twenty eight yard scrambled
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: for Drake May.
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: And flicker the mac hollins. Yeah, that was the other
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: big play on the on the drive.
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: On the importance of the locker room, Travis at West
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: Virginia says, locker room, schmocker room, It's irrelevant.
• 27:08
  Speaker 7: I don't I disagree.
• 27:10
  Speaker 6: I normally a'm on that side of the street. I'm
• 27:13
  Speaker 6: the mad analytics guy that doesn't really account for those
• 27:15
  Speaker 6: types of things. Being around that team last year changed
• 27:18
  Speaker 6: my present.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: I would just say I bet that anybody that thinks
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: that way would change their opinion if they were in
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: the Patriots' locker room in twenty twenty four and then
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: again in twenty twenty five and didn't see the difference,
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: because I mean it was apparent with guys like what,
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: I can't Why can't I not think of the big
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: defensive line from Miami. No, who's the big defensive lineman
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: that was here for the Patriots and they gave him
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: the contract in Belgium on the best Godshaw, you listened
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: to him in twenty twenty four, and then listen to
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: like Digs and these guys last year, and you tell
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: me there's not a difference between that Keon White from
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, and then listen to the way they
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: talked in the locker room.
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: Lash Well, I will say, though, let's just say anything.
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: Milton Williams and celebrity family feuture. Really I always saw that.
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: Let's just say, in twenty twenty four, Patriots win that
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: first game in Cincinnati, and then they win three or
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: four more after that, does all of a sudden the
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: locker room get better?
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: Maybe I think it gets better. No, but maybe they're
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: not bitching about the way they're being used if they're
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: winning right Like that was a big part of that
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: thing is there was openly questioning the coaching.
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: It's not enough by itself to have a locker room.
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: Everybody cares about it, and I think.
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: Jalen Polk and conversely, if last year they lost like
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: the first four games, yeah, started as this is.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: Why I like it, so you can have your cute
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: little like things that you know, Mike gets excited about.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: Sorry Mike, I do okay. But you you go to
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: Buffalo and you win that game the way you want
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: it and the attitude you had going into that game,
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: like we're not afraid of anybody will play you anytime
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: anywhere and we'll in. You lose that game and you
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: don't get the same response the next time.
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: The locker room.
• 29:06
  Speaker 6: After that game in Buffalo was for a regular season game.
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: I had never seen anything like it. Like it was
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: just it was levitating.
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: And you have some opportunities to that to that end
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: early in the season. Now Seattle and the opener. I'm
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: not saying like if you don't win it, that's it
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: o case, but you have that opportunity in Seattle to
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: have a similar kind of win you go to, was
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: it Jacksonville is one of those early season ones, you know,
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: good solid playoff team on the road. There's another one.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: There's three one on the Steelers Bills, There's another Buffalo game.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: So you have you have three opportunities on the road
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: to beat solid playoff teams from a year ago and
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: again established that confidence, that swagger that you did right
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: out of the shoot with that Buffalo win, because that
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: was kind of you know, it was a it's a
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: sluggish start to the season last year. It didn't just
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: happen automatically. Yeah, you know, they lost the Raiders at home.
• 30:02
  Speaker 6: I mean, fumble turned it over five times against Pittsburgh
• 30:05
  Speaker 6: and lost the game they should have won. But I
• 30:07
  Speaker 6: was thinking about that Buffalo game. That was one of
• 30:09
  Speaker 6: the most fun games I've ever covered. I mean, it
• 30:11
  Speaker 6: was a tree there. But I was thinking about Diggs
• 30:15
  Speaker 6: and the number I can't get out of my head
• 30:18
  Speaker 6: is that Drake may completed eighty three percent of his
• 30:20
  Speaker 6: passes just Defawn Diggs last year, Like that is absurd
• 30:25
  Speaker 6: for a guy that was targeted as much as to
• 30:27
  Speaker 6: fan Diggs was. That was one of the best performances
• 30:30
  Speaker 6: I've seen from like a Patriot receiver and probably since
• 30:33
  Speaker 6: like Randy Moss honestly, maybe Julian Edelman in the Super Bowl,
• 30:37
  Speaker 6: you know, and he won MVP, like he was just
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: on a different level, like I you know, it was unbelievable,
• 30:43
  Speaker 6: and it was right out of the shoot in warm
• 30:45
  Speaker 6: ups that he just came out there and he literally
• 30:48
  Speaker 6: almost like went to the like fifty yard line on
• 30:50
  Speaker 6: the Bill's logo and was like dancing in the middle
• 30:52
  Speaker 6: of the field like guess.
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: Who's back, right, And I AJ.
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: Brown's awesome and he's maybe even better in Stefan Diggs
• 31:00
  Speaker 6: talent wise.
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: I just the eighty three.
• 31:03
  Speaker 6: Percent thing, especially, I can't get out of my head,
• 31:05
  Speaker 6: like how just insanely efficient that number is? Yep, And
• 31:10
  Speaker 6: you know, how do you go about replicating that right
• 31:13
  Speaker 6: football wise?
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: That Diggs was it Drake? I mean, I know it's
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: both of them, but like Romeo.
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: Dobbs is not going to catch eighty three percent of
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: the passes.
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: And that's why, like some of the analytics stuff bothers
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: me because there's a couple of things, and I've seen
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: this written in a few different places, how Drake may
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: did that last year with absolutely nothing around nothing nothing zero.
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: I would push back on that, and that would that
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: would be exhibit A. Would Evan just explain, Yeah, okay,
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: that's number one. Now, I do think he has more
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: around him this year. I think you add Brown and Dobbs,
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: that's greater than Diggs if you ask me, Well, we'll
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: see how it unfolds. There's no guarantees in anything, but
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: I do think he has more to work with this
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: year than he did last year. We'll see. Yeah, okay,
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: so I pushed back on that. The other thing is,
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: I think people, because these analytics are so prevalent now
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: and you don't watch the games, you just look at
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: the spreadsheet at the end of the game. Diggs was
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: like a fifty percent snap guy, right, little over fifty
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: fifty five, And people look, well, Daves is coming off
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: of torn ACL you had a limited as usage. But
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: that doesn't tell the story of the eighty three percent
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: efficiency rate he had, Right, was that number one in
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: the league?
• 32:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 32:32
  Speaker 6: How you sort it by targets or you know, minimums
• 32:34
  Speaker 6: and stuff.
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: It had to be for whiteouts, it had to be
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: number one. Yeah, right, Like that's like invaluable, And I
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: don't think that you can quantify the story that Evan
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: told about the logo in Buffalo great, like your number
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: one receiver just went out and said, yep, we're here,
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: deal with it, and then went out and had that performance.
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: And by the way, he had that kind of performance
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: in a couple of other big spots later on. Now,
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: I've been critical, critical down the end of his postseason,
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: and I don't think he was quite as good in
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: the postseason, and that's been his m O. He kind
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: of runs out of gas a little bit. He's a
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: little older now.
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: Was it him running out of gas or teams just
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: saying we're just not gonna let him beat us.
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: Well, then you're out of gas if you're allowing the
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: other team to do But I can't do that to
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: Jamar Chase or Justin Jeffersons. Teams have no, they.
• 33:26
  Speaker 7: Don't teams have you know, I think.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: I better not be able to do it to a J. Brown.
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: I think in the NFL, if a team focuses on
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: one guy, they can shut him down, whether it's an
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: elite pass rusher or a wide receiver or running back.
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: But the good teams make them pay for that, for
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: that that focus.
• 33:44
  Speaker 7: On that one.
• 33:45
  Speaker 6: I think they're more equipped to do that this year,
• 33:47
  Speaker 6: which is where my optimism comes in, is that it's
• 33:50
  Speaker 6: not just Digs and then a bunch of guys. It's Brown,
• 33:55
  Speaker 6: Dobbs and you know, Hunter Henry and whats.
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: All of that do for the running game right right?
• 34:00
  Speaker 6: Well, that that's a big hope I think, you know
• 34:02
  Speaker 6: for us nerds is that you know, they saw one
• 34:04
  Speaker 6: of the highest rates of single high safeties in the
• 34:07
  Speaker 6: league last year during the regular season because nobody really
• 34:11
  Speaker 6: respected their outside receivers.
• 34:13
  Speaker 4: As much as Drake may made them.
• 34:15
  Speaker 6: Eventually, they didn't during most of the portion of the season.
• 34:20
  Speaker 6: So having a guy like AJ Brown now who's a
• 34:23
  Speaker 6: true outside guy and not like a Digs who's more
• 34:25
  Speaker 6: of an inside player, at this point, do they see
• 34:28
  Speaker 6: a lot more too high safeties And then it's Reggie
• 34:31
  Speaker 6: Gilliam and Remandre or Trevion Henderson and then we can
• 34:33
  Speaker 6: run the ball at you.
• 34:34
  Speaker 4: So they have we go.
• 34:36
  Speaker 8: We love it.
• 34:36
  Speaker 4: More flexibility.
• 34:37
  Speaker 9: They're easy to defend, not anymore, baby, they have more
• 34:43
  Speaker 9: answers in that way to pivot, you know, like if
• 34:45
  Speaker 9: you are going to play us in a too high
• 34:47
  Speaker 9: shell because of Drake Mays deep ball and AJ Brown
• 34:49
  Speaker 9: on the outside.
• 34:50
  Speaker 6: We have a full back, we have two running backs,
• 34:52
  Speaker 6: we have six offensive linemen that we feel good about playing, and.
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: We've got an offensive coordinator that can use these guys
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: figure it out like yet and in the lab.
• 35:01
  Speaker 7: I don't think anyone's going to stop now.
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: They won't. They'll be lucky. Well it would be a fluke. Yeah,
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: I think we've already a stabished. I think that's the
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: way it could happen, and then no one's going to.
• 35:09
  Speaker 6: Stop us is obviously, I know you're being facetious. But
• 35:12
  Speaker 6: top five offense in football, I think is in play
• 35:14
  Speaker 6: like I I really I think that they have that
• 35:17
  Speaker 6: kind of arsenal around Drake now that they can kind
• 35:21
  Speaker 6: of do whatever you need to do.
• 35:22
  Speaker 4: And I don't know if they could do that last year.
• 35:24
  Speaker 6: Last year there's a lot of three wide receivers, there's
• 35:26
  Speaker 6: a lot of Drake may in the shotgun like that
• 35:29
  Speaker 6: drop back passing. This year, I think they can do
• 35:32
  Speaker 6: different things. They can run the ball, they can play action,
• 35:35
  Speaker 6: they can get big and you know, put big people
• 35:37
  Speaker 6: on the field and run it over, run over you
• 35:39
  Speaker 6: instead of just throwing it over the top.
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: If everything on paper comes to fruition is the one
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: kind of maybe weak link is tight end depth.
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: I was just going to say, it's like, if Hunter
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: Henry gets hurt, I think it changes things a lot,
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: and I think you're kind of scrambling a little bit.
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: I mean, I even think having Julian Hill that hurt
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: and now you know, it just puts a spotlight for
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: me on Hunter Henry. Everything evn't said. You've got all
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: this ability to do all these different things. If all
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: of a sudden you're you know, looking at Eli Eridan
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: getting in there, or you know, Dupre or some you know,
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: one of these undrafted guys from the last couple of years,
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: or even Pharaoh Brown, you know, it's it's clearly a
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: week link that they won't be able to go to.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: So I just I'd love to see.
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: One of these other tight ends maybe at least show
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: some kind of signs of progress or hope that because
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: I just feel like right now it's it's kind of
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: Hunter Henry or Bust at tight end and it's all
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: on him, and he's you know, an older player's.
• 36:27
  Speaker 6: Got to be a move coming there. You know, they
• 36:29
  Speaker 6: hinted at it in the spring. It hasn't happened. Yet,
• 36:32
  Speaker 6: I wonder if they're going to give these young guys
• 36:34
  Speaker 6: at least the first couple of weeks of camp to
• 36:36
  Speaker 6: try to win that job, and then you know, we
• 36:39
  Speaker 6: get around the preseason starting around there joint practices. Maybe
• 36:43
  Speaker 6: they're making calls and bringing in a veteran.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm a little concerned about that, and that makes sense.
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: They've seen teams do things like that before. But if
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: you have a guy that you want to be a
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: part of your team, I would think that there's some
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: urgency to get him in and get him acclimated to
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: your system as quickly as possible. Now, there's always a
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: chance that you bring in someone that has some experience
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: in your system, and maybe the learning curve isn't is great.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: Evan and I talked about that when we did our
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: all Football show you before you guys were on vacation.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: We talked about like the John Tui Spens of the
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: world and just the two just just chopping it up,
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: Salt Peppa, you just chopping it up, a little talk,

• 39:40
  Speaker 2: new homeowner, So that's yeah, screwdriver, yeah.
• 39:43
  Speaker 8: Right right up my alley. I had a two good
• 39:48
  Speaker 8: questions one question asoud put Paul in one four all
• 39:50
  Speaker 8: you guys, my friend Christmas Paul was It's an odd question,
• 39:56
  Speaker 8: but I'll promise I'm making a point. If I were
• 39:59
  Speaker 8: to add ask you who is your you know, who's
• 40:03
  Speaker 8: the best basket player of all time? What would you
• 40:06
  Speaker 8: What would you answer?
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: Paul?
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: Best web player, basketball player, basketball.
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: Best basketball player of all time? Michael Jordan. Jordan's oh,
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: thank you. That's really not a yes no answer. That's
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: very subjective, but yes, that would be my I.
• 40:22
  Speaker 8: Guess, Michael, I guess I'm a little surprised because I'll
• 40:27
  Speaker 8: listen to one of the episodes when I was driving
• 40:29
  Speaker 8: back to the Hamptons and correct, Levall, I think you
• 40:32
  Speaker 8: said you rather go to ten super Bowls and on
• 40:36
  Speaker 8: the way three versus going four for four?
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, considering.
• 40:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, So then how is in Lebron the goat?
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: Paul Michael Jordan's right, I tested, I got your hair,
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: no player, but you didn't ask me. You didn't ask
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: me about accomplishments like I mean, if if we're just
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: like counting rings and counting like wins. At the end,
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: Lebron's played longer, he has more points than Jordan's, or
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: he's better than Jordan's no, like he just played longer.
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: I think Jordan's better. He also retired in the middle
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: of his career. He retired in the middle of his
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: career baseball. Otherwise you could he would.
• 41:24
  Speaker 8: Have won you. Yeah, well, I guess, guess just win
• 41:29
  Speaker 8: three over four.
• 41:30
  Speaker 7: But anyway that.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of guys I would take Lebron.
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: Wow. Yeah, see, I didn't even think Bron's Lebron.
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: I think they'll take Magic.
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: I'm not a Lebron hater. I know there are a
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: lot of Lebron haters. I just I only top five.
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: He may not be my number two though.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: That's Lebron I think is better than him too.
• 41:51
  Speaker 7: I don't know.
• 41:52
  Speaker 4: Yeah, easily anyway, second play all the time. Thank you
• 42:01
  Speaker 4: for the call. You can be the biggest Lebron spon Lebron.
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: Where's he gonna go?
• 42:07
  Speaker 4: Golden State?
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah? You know what I love about this, that's the
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: trust that nobody cares.
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: Nobody really does. But it doesn't make a big impact.
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: It doesn't his his group is putting out there like
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: the rich Paul the decision this time. No, he's trying.
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: He's trying. It's the indecision, the ultimate narcissisy.
• 42:26
  Speaker 7: And you're saying it does make a big impact where
• 42:28
  Speaker 7: he goes.
• 42:28
  Speaker 4: Yes, I think it does. Why because he's good?
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: That's very simple one, the.
• 42:36
  Speaker 4: One in the bubble.
• 42:37
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't think that Lebron's like, he's not a
• 42:41
  Speaker 6: number one guy anymore.
• 42:42
  Speaker 4: He's not.
• 42:43
  Speaker 6: He's not your your your top guy on a team.
• 42:45
  Speaker 6: But if he goes to a team that has a
• 42:47
  Speaker 6: couple of pieces already and he's like the third option
• 42:50
  Speaker 6: on that team, and he's willing to do that at
• 42:52
  Speaker 6: this point for Philadelphia.
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: Threat, you know, Brown was the fourth best player.
• 42:57
  Speaker 4: I don't know if Threat.
• 42:58
  Speaker 6: I don't know if Philadelphia works because they already have
• 43:01
  Speaker 6: so many mouths defeat on that team.
• 43:03
  Speaker 4: But I think Lebron didn't he just go to Cleveland.
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: He might be nice on the list, and I think
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: there'd be no threat to win if he went there either.
• 43:11
  Speaker 7: I'm not saying, but I mean, just end your career
• 43:13
  Speaker 7: in Cleveland.
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: On the list, you know, that's mighty nice.
• 43:18
  Speaker 4: But that but saying he's not the second best player
• 43:20
  Speaker 4: of all time.
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: But I agree, like impact all, I don't think that
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: like people are waiting with dated breath to see where
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: he goes.
• 43:29
  Speaker 7: I don't think it's beyond that now with him.
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Like, if you're a huge Lebron fan, then I
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: could see you, yeah, you know, waiting on all these
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: these reports and whatnot. But like if you're just like
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: an NBA fan or a fan of sports, like you're
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: not sitting around wondering chief's Lebron gonna go?
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: And I heard like the NBA is waiting to put
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: out the schedule, Yeah because of him? Oh yeah, what
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: does that mean?
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: That's true?
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: If he ends up with Cleveland, then the networks can
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: figure out when they want to put Cleveland games on.
• 43:57
  Speaker 6: Because they have like their big mark He days like
• 43:59
  Speaker 6: Christmas stay and stuff like that.
• 44:01
  Speaker 7: All right, so they can figure they can change the schedules.
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: Around they don't know they and then change The NFL
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: does it every week.
• 44:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but that's hour.
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: That's one of the problems with the NFL is they
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: have no regard for their fan base.
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: Just make your schedule, don't wait for him.
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: He'll what did he just say that out loud? Make
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: your schedule.
• 44:19
  Speaker 7: Just make your schedule. I'm not I'm talking about the NBA.
• 44:21
  Speaker 6: I still not over that. You guys don't think he's
• 44:23
  Speaker 6: the second best player.
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: I think he's a great play. He's a great one.
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: I'm teasing you, guys. Just because I think other guys
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: are better doesn't mean I don't think he's a great player.
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: Anthony's in Seattle. What's up, Anthony?
• 44:37
  Speaker 10: Hey?
• 44:37
  Speaker 11: What's Fred? Deuce?
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: Hey?
• 44:40
  Speaker 11: Welcome back, Paul and Evan?
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: Thank you?
• 44:43
  Speaker 11: Hey. Uh so you guys did it? You could you
• 44:46
  Speaker 11: You converted me. You know, you've you've eat somebody over
• 44:50
  Speaker 11: the head, you know, for long enough, eventually you're gonna
• 44:52
  Speaker 11: you're gonna leave it not And I watched the World
• 44:56
  Speaker 11: Cup finale and uh, it's you know, it's it's one
• 44:59
  Speaker 11: of those things where it's it's everywhere, so you know,
• 45:03
  Speaker 11: you have ample opportunity to to uh to get in
• 45:05
  Speaker 11: front of the TV. So I went to brunch with
• 45:08
  Speaker 11: with the wife and I told myself, I said, Okay,
• 45:09
  Speaker 11: I'm just gonna when I get home, I'm gonna turn
• 45:11
  Speaker 11: it on and if it's watchable, I'll watch it. If not,
• 45:13
  Speaker 11: I'll just you know, change the channel. And man, it
• 45:16
  Speaker 11: was more than watchable.
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: It was.
• 45:17
  Speaker 11: I I enjoyed it. It was a you know, it
• 45:20
  Speaker 11: was it was a fun watch. I think part of
• 45:22
  Speaker 11: it was I thought that you guys a lot.
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: Actually.
• 45:25
  Speaker 11: Uh, one of the things was the stakes. And it's
• 45:28
  Speaker 11: like a person who doesn't watch football, but then they
• 45:30
  Speaker 11: watch the Super Bowl. When you when the stakes are
• 45:32
  Speaker 11: really high, you know how much it means to so
• 45:34
  Speaker 11: many people. You know, it obviously enhances the watchings. But I,
• 45:40
  Speaker 11: based on the newsletter, it seemed like you guys were
• 45:42
  Speaker 11: kind of either rooting for Spain or you thought Spain
• 45:45
  Speaker 11: would win. And it didn't take me long to recognize that.
• 45:51
  Speaker 11: I don't think I can talk intelligently enough about the
• 45:54
  Speaker 11: game to say that they were better, but I don't
• 45:56
  Speaker 11: think it's arguable that like they are faster. It was
• 45:59
  Speaker 11: it was. It wasn't like they couldn't run with them.
• 46:01
  Speaker 11: And I thought Argentina's goalie had I thought you had
• 46:04
  Speaker 11: himself a day, but I just felt like it was
• 46:07
  Speaker 11: and by him. And then lastly, and I'll get off
• 46:11
  Speaker 11: the phone, and I love that it's back to football.
• 46:13
  Speaker 11: So I certainly don't want to high check the show.
• 46:15
  Speaker 11: But Paul, I thought of you, man. I thought of
• 46:17
  Speaker 11: you the first time that a guy died and then
• 46:20
  Speaker 11: was magically resurrected ten seconds later. I didn't even react
• 46:23
  Speaker 11: when the guy hit the ground. I just knew. I'm like,
• 46:25
  Speaker 11: he's faking. These guys flop, but just in the flopping
• 46:28
  Speaker 11: in general is exhausting, and I wonder, and here I
• 46:32
  Speaker 11: am some non soccer guy coming in talking about the rules,
• 46:34
  Speaker 11: but I do wonder if they have thought about explored, uh,
• 46:40
  Speaker 11: you know, adding penalties for flopping, because it's like.
• 46:44
  Speaker 7: Every time I get there, it's got to be egregious.
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: They did it a little bit early in the group play.
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: I saw that archaetimes.
• 46:51
  Speaker 6: Give it to you, but I Did's a cultural thing,
• 46:54
  Speaker 6: like until it starts to be frowned upon by the
• 46:56
  Speaker 6: other players.
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: Who was the first flopper in soccer?
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: We know? I mean, gonna soccer historian, tell me where
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: did that start?
• 47:05
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's always been a part of.
• 47:08
  Speaker 7: Our generation, but I don't know, like was it always
• 47:10
  Speaker 7: that way?
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: I judge it by the amount of barrel rolls they
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: do after they go down right right right. It's a tough.
• 47:15
  Speaker 6: One that you're not a soccer fan to watch the
• 47:18
  Speaker 6: World Cup final was that's a tough first game because.
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: I had heard it was kind of dull.
• 47:22
  Speaker 6: I didn't, yeah, to appreciate one side well, but to
• 47:27
  Speaker 6: appreciate how good Spain was in that game is to
• 47:30
  Speaker 6: understand the defensive tactics and things like that, which is
• 47:33
  Speaker 6: not the sexy part of the game. So it's a
• 47:35
  Speaker 6: lot like football, like you know, defensive battle like a
• 47:38
  Speaker 6: Super Bowl fifty three, thirteen to three game. You know,
• 47:41
  Speaker 6: it depends on who your perspective on life on whatever.
• 47:45
  Speaker 7: I think of the halftime it works up.
• 47:48
  Speaker 4: I think that the.
• 47:50
  Speaker 6: What I don't understand about halftime shows is like people
• 47:53
  Speaker 6: that get so mad that they didn't like it. It's like,
• 47:56
  Speaker 6: for like you don't have to watch it, and it's
• 47:58
  Speaker 6: like fifteen minutes of your life, like, you know, I don't.
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: Know, go to the store. I didn't realize there was
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: a show.
• 48:03
  Speaker 6: People just gets so like animated about how much they
• 48:06
  Speaker 6: hated and it's because it really was fine.
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: I thought it was uplett, you know, it was Upbeataten
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: who wasn't from when Bieber.
• 48:12
  Speaker 4: Was It was a bunch of people pts Bieber.
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: I got a little whiplash watching Shakira's hips, I mean, unbelievable.
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: She's like, what in her fifty Yeah she's.
• 48:23
  Speaker 4: Still killed fifty. He still chills fantastic.
• 48:26
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah. But when Justin Bieber came out. It just brought
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: the whole house down. He did a good way, comes
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: out with a guitar and he's like really slow, and
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: everything before that was like, you know, lively and upbeat,
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: and then he comes he does his thing, and then
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: he comes out and Shakira comes out and brought it
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: back up.
• 48:44
  Speaker 7: But like, why bring him out? He brought the whole
• 48:46
  Speaker 7: house down?
• 48:46
  Speaker 6: Well you can. He has so many songs that are upbeat.
• 48:49
  Speaker 6: I don't know why they picked that acoustic song. No, no,
• 48:54
  Speaker 6: even that would have been better. It was like one
• 48:56
  Speaker 6: of his newer acoustic songs. I don't know why he
• 48:58
  Speaker 6: didn't do like one of his like you know, get
• 49:00
  Speaker 6: the party started type of what.
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: Like she will for something.
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: She did the World Cups. Play every every game when
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: the guys come out, she did you know, she performed that.
• 49:12
  Speaker 6: She's she's the World Cup, right, there's a dumb person.
• 49:15
  Speaker 3: Right, And there's always like a song that they do
• 49:17
  Speaker 3: for the World Cup, right, like everything.
• 49:19
  Speaker 6: Ye Like, so Waka Waka is the most popular one,
• 49:21
  Speaker 6: I would say, yeah, And I was a little disappointed.
• 49:25
  Speaker 4: I thought maybe she was going to do that mix
• 49:27
  Speaker 4: it in.
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: Because that's but I thought it was a really good show.
• 49:29
  Speaker 4: It's a banger.
• 49:30
  Speaker 6: I liked it, but yeah, that's a tough game to like. Like,
• 49:32
  Speaker 6: the best player in that game was Roger, the Spain's
• 49:35
  Speaker 6: central midfielder. You're like, that's not something that it's not
• 49:39
  Speaker 6: like Messy or like you know, Lemna Mal up top
• 49:42
  Speaker 6: like someone that's scoring goals.
• 49:44
  Speaker 4: It's just the way he controlled the midfield is what I.
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: Had n't watched much of thema Mal before that game.
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: And he's another one like Messi where it's like the
• 49:50
  Speaker 3: ball is just glued to his feet and he's just.
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: Making little little moves.
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: But I did develop some of the appreciation that you're
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: talking about ev with just the defensive attitude that just
• 50:00
  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know the exits nose, but how
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: quickly they closed and there was just no space to
• 50:04
  Speaker 3: breathe and they are constantly, you know, on top of
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: Argentina the second gig they got the ball.
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: I mean, it was just it was interesting.
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: There's a lot of the other games I watched I
• 50:11
  Speaker 3: appreciated guys like holland the talented guys, but this was
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: one where it was like kind of a team win.
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: It's just like these guys are just dam that was
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: the Yamal was the guy that I chose. Alex asked
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: us if there was a player that we hadn't heard of,
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: and again, I'm a soccer nubes, like, I don't know
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: any of these guys other than you know, the messies
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: and the babes of the world. You know, I don't
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: know the That's a guy I had never heard of.
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: And I watched a couple of the games and I
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: was like, this kid hasn't so.
• 50:38
  Speaker 4: I was glad to find out he was the MVP
• 50:40
  Speaker 4: of Euros two years ago. He plays for Barcelona, I know.
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: And that's and I wrote that in my things, like
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: I know, I know everybody knows who this is except
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: for me, But I chose that was the one guy
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: that in Dallas. What's up, Chad, how's it going, y'all?
• 50:55
  Speaker 12: I'm talking about bringing out something Fred send. In the
• 50:57
  Speaker 12: beginning of the show, Fred was talking about he's not
• 51:01
  Speaker 12: worried about anything on the offense, and I am worried
• 51:05
  Speaker 12: about the injury bug.
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: You can weave off that on offense part. That's not
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: worried about anything. Everything's great, everything's great.
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, we're always it worried about injuries, But is
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: it really worth it to even worry about it. They're
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: gonna happen, yeah, you know, and there's nothing you can
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: do about it, So like, don't worry about it.
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: But if they if they stay healthy, I still I
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: have other worries, Like it's not like, oh, the only
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: thing that can stop them is if they're not playing
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: like no, like no, especially the offensive line. How's that
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: all come together?
• 51:36
  Speaker 12: I believe in laws of averages a little bit. I
• 51:39
  Speaker 12: felt like last year were on the good side of
• 51:41
  Speaker 12: the injury. Yeah, the good side of the injury.
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: Absolutely.
• 51:44
  Speaker 12: I feel like we brought another guy in that's injury
• 51:47
  Speaker 12: prone on the offensive line.
• 51:49
  Speaker 4: I'm not sure.
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: I think so.
• 51:50
  Speaker 12: I think he came from the Jets as well, just
• 51:53
  Speaker 12: like Moses. Yeah, so that those make me scretly worried
• 51:58
  Speaker 12: because I think Gibson lash Yield was actually a big
• 52:02
  Speaker 12: miss for injury. I think our second second round running
• 52:05
  Speaker 12: back really didn't show up at all. That can happen
• 52:08
  Speaker 12: the end of the year.
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't look at what anybody did with the
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: Jets as what they're going to do after the Jets.
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: Second.
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: That goes for Sam Donald or anybody.
• 52:18
  Speaker 6: You know, Yeah, the one thing I'm I'm looking for
• 52:23
  Speaker 6: in camp on the offensive line. And thanks Gatle about
• 52:25
  Speaker 6: this in the position preview that we did. Lomu playing
• 52:30
  Speaker 6: a little bit at guard in the spring, you know,
• 52:33
  Speaker 6: perked my ears up a little bit because if Avt
• 52:36
  Speaker 6: does get hurt, I think we all kind of assumed
• 52:38
  Speaker 6: that Ben Brown might be the guy that had to
• 52:40
  Speaker 6: fill in there.
• 52:41
  Speaker 4: But do they feel like Lomu could play some left guard?
• 52:45
  Speaker 6: And if they do, then I feel like you have
• 52:49
  Speaker 6: a built in layer of depth for AVT injury at
• 52:53
  Speaker 6: that point. You know, Ben Brown has to play left
• 52:55
  Speaker 6: guard for twelve thirteen, fourteen games and playoff games and stuff.
• 52:59
  Speaker 6: That's a little bit concerning. But if your first round
• 53:02
  Speaker 6: pick is playing there instead and he's you know, playing
• 53:05
  Speaker 6: at a decent level, I feel a little bit better
• 53:07
  Speaker 6: about that. But we'll see how much he plays there
• 53:12
  Speaker 6: in camp. I'm interested to see how much they cross
• 53:14
  Speaker 6: train him at all four spots, honestly on the right
• 53:17
  Speaker 6: side and the left side.
• 53:18
  Speaker 3: I will I'll just say, how's Wilson look at center?
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: You know?
• 53:21
  Speaker 3: Is that a seamless transition? Is he you know, better
• 53:23
  Speaker 3: player there?
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: Does he? You know? Do we see why they.
• 53:26
  Speaker 3: Wanted to move him, you know, kind of to his
• 53:28
  Speaker 3: natural position. Is you know, is there a considerable jump
• 53:31
  Speaker 3: in his players in and.
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: You you should expect improvement from Campbell and Wilson in
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: year two. They should be better players. It's just natural.
• 53:38
  Speaker 7: Yep.
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: Darius and Louisville loved every fourge episode, but come on, Ford,
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: only thirty minutes. That was a little disappointing. Well, just
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: so you know, there's a new rule with the league
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: that teams can't do more than thirty minutes of behind
• 53:52
  Speaker 2: the scenes type of content per week, so we're limited
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: this year.
• 53:59
  Speaker 4: I actually liked it.
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: It's a I didn't. I haven't seen it yet, but
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: it's amazing. You're just going to get criticism, Like I
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: can't tell you how I can't tell you how many
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: people reached out to me about the ones that we
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: did last year, like too long, this is really good.
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: It's way too long, right, that was way too long.
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: This is way too long. Make it thirty minutes. It's like,
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: this is too short.
• 54:21
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I thought it was great. I thought it was
• 54:23
  Speaker 6: a tight twenty eight minute it was.
• 54:24
  Speaker 7: It was very good.
• 54:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it flowed well.
• 54:26
  Speaker 6: It didn't have as much like I didn't feel like
• 54:29
  Speaker 6: I was there was any repetition or anything like that.
• 54:32
  Speaker 6: As much as mind as longer I would.
• 54:35
  Speaker 3: Push back a little bit, I would have one that
• 54:36
  Speaker 3: would be my one note was like, I felt like
• 54:38
  Speaker 3: we relived the AJ Brown arriving here three times.
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: Like I felt like we opened it.
• 54:41
  Speaker 3: With him arriving and like and then and when there's rumors.
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: He might and I'm like, didn't he already come?
• 54:45
  Speaker 3: That was my only critique of it was Yeah, the
• 54:47
  Speaker 3: open hat, Yeah, And that was a little bit like
• 54:49
  Speaker 3: where are we?
• 54:51
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I threw me off too, But then I realized
• 54:53
  Speaker 6: that that was like kind of like a montage open
• 54:55
  Speaker 6: of what the episode was going to be. H And
• 54:57
  Speaker 6: so then because there was one speech that veryble that
• 55:00
  Speaker 6: was on the practice field that repeated, but it was
• 55:03
  Speaker 6: because like the ten seconds of it was in the
• 55:06
  Speaker 6: little opening montage and then it came back and you
• 55:09
  Speaker 6: saw the full thing later on.
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, Time to take a break, Time to
• 55:13

• 57:34
  Speaker 3: And today we're going to talk about the running backs
• 57:37
  Speaker 3: coming back in with ramondre Stevenson, Trevier and Henderson kind
• 57:39
  Speaker 3: of headlining this group. A little bit of transition though
• 57:42
  Speaker 3: we had Antonio Gibson briefly last year he got hurt.
• 57:45
  Speaker 3: Don't only seemed like, you know, they trusted in the
• 57:47
  Speaker 3: draft with jam Miller, but otherwise not really an obvious
• 57:51
  Speaker 3: third candidate into that role. Terrell Jennings still kind of
• 57:54
  Speaker 3: kicking around as well. But let's start at the top
• 57:58
  Speaker 3: with Ramondre Stevenson, who you know missed a few games
• 58:00
  Speaker 3: with injury ev but overall he's one of the best
• 58:03
  Speaker 3: pass protection and make sure you let Paul talk about that.
• 58:05
  Speaker 3: Paul appreciates from Wander his pass protection. But just an
• 58:08
  Speaker 3: all around back, you can kind of do it all
• 58:10
  Speaker 3: and if you could just stay healthy, he's one of
• 58:11
  Speaker 3: the best backs in this league.
• 58:12
  Speaker 6: Yeah, down the stretch, he was one of the best
• 58:14
  Speaker 6: backs in football last year you know, a guy that
• 58:17
  Speaker 6: was right near the top of the league and yards
• 58:19
  Speaker 6: per carry, yards after contact, like all those fancy metrics
• 58:22
  Speaker 6: that I liked that he was really one of the
• 58:25
  Speaker 6: more productive workhorse running backs down the stretch of the season.
• 58:30
  Speaker 4: They had the little fumbling issues early on.
• 58:33
  Speaker 6: Especially that Pittsburgh game, but then he didn't fumble the
• 58:35
  Speaker 6: rest of the season, so maybe that's behind him as well.
• 58:38
  Speaker 6: The pass blocking, you know, I think all of it
• 58:41
  Speaker 6: kind of came together for him down the stretch to
• 58:43
  Speaker 6: the point where he really was the bell cow in
• 58:47
  Speaker 6: the playoffs and played seventy percent of the snaps in
• 58:49
  Speaker 6: the playoffs, and Treveon Henderson was kind of an afterthought
• 58:52
  Speaker 6: at that point. So it's not a criticism of either
• 58:55
  Speaker 6: one of those guys, but if just looking at that
• 58:58
  Speaker 6: duo or that tandem, you just would like to see
• 59:00
  Speaker 6: them peak at the same time a little bit more
• 59:03
  Speaker 6: consistently this year.
• 59:04
  Speaker 4: I felt like last year they were kind of dueling fiddles,
• 59:08
  Speaker 4: like it was.
• 59:08
  Speaker 6: Travon Henderson was hot for a couple of weeks, then
• 59:11
  Speaker 6: Ramandre was hot for a couple.
• 59:12
  Speaker 4: Of weeks, but they never really had them both rolling at.
• 59:15
  Speaker 6: The same time to really truly be that one two punch,
• 59:18
  Speaker 6: But I don't know what more you could have asked
• 59:20
  Speaker 6: for Ramandri and Stevenson down the stretch of last season,
• 59:23
  Speaker 6: you know, last month of the regular season into the playoffs,
• 59:25
  Speaker 6: he was excellent.
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: And I'm going to be really interested to see how
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: the presence of Reggie Gilliam at fullback impacts both of them.
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: And I know there's been a lot of talk about
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: Henderson maybe you know, maybe the lacking vision at times
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: and how that could help him, but I think it
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: might have an impact on Stevenson as well. So we
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: know Josh McDaniels likes to utilize that position. Gilliam is
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: a really good one. I think he's a pretty versatile one.
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: He's not just sort of a meathead blocker. He can move.
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: He's got some athleticism too his game. So I'm curious
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: to see how McDaniels implements, you know, two back sets
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: with a traditional fullback. Are we are we sleeping on
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: Henderson eleven hundred yards last year total, you know, combined
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: between rushing and receiving ten touchdowns, you know, but quiet
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: down the stretch out and as you said, it was
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: kind of all Ramondra Stevenson as you got down into
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: the playoffs and into the super Bowl. We saw him
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: this spring. The guy runs like lightning. I mean it's
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: you can just see the acceleration. You think it will
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: be even better here in year two as he gets
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: a full offseason in the NFL program. But are we
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: sleeping on Trevon Henderson a little bit as maybe a
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: year two guy who could really elevate and be that
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: one two punch with with Ramondra and be even better.
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think maybe a little bit.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 6: Because you know, I was writing up the written version
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 6: of this recap or preview, I guess I should say,
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 6: and I was looking at the numbers, and led the
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 6: team in touches, led the team in yards, led the
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 6: team in.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 4: Touchdown Cravon Henderson's right across the board.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 6: And I don't think if you asked somebody, hey, who
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 6: led to the Patriots and yards, you know, total yards.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 4: From scrimmage last year, that people would guess Henderson.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 6: They might say Diggs, they might say Remandre and he
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 6: I don't think his name would come to mine, you know,
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 6: top of mind. But I think a couple of things
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 6: that you look at from his game is just sort
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 6: of understanding the NFL game and developing in that respect.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 6: There's no doubt he can run like the wind and
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 6: has great explosiveness and athleticism and can make big plays happen.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 6: But the vision between the tackles that Paul is talking about,
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 6: the pacing like sometimes I feel like he's honestly going
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 6: too fast.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 4: Both as a runner and a pass catcher.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 6: Pass blocking obviously is a lot mental that I think
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 6: that that didn't exactly translate from college to the pros
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 6: for him as a rookie. So all these elements I
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 6: think are more between the ears than they are anything physical.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 6: But can he develop that part of his game. Can
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 6: he see the field a little bit better? Can he
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 6: understand how to set up his blocks a little bit better?
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 6: Those types of things could maybe help him elevate from
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 6: what was a really good rookie season that I do
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 6: think is getting slept on a little bit to a
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 6: breakout second season.
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, to me. The thing but Henderson is consistency,
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: like Kevin said, and if you look at the number,
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: the numbers are terrific. They were very concentrated in a
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: short amount of time where he just exploded, you know,
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: that Tampa Bay game, you know, the Buffalo home loss.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: He had some big runs in there. I think what
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 1: the coaching staff is looking for. Mikeabel talked about this
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: a lot is more consistency to the running game, more
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: so than just flat out production. The numbers are what
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: they are. I think he had four touchdowns of fifty
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 1: yards or more. That's great. And that home run ability,
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: you know, no one wants to take that away from him.
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 1: Hopefully that he keeps that while adding a lot of
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: eight and you know, eight and ten yard runs with it.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 3: Well, like a lot of the precisions on this roster, guys,
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 3: it's like, you get to the top two Henderson Stevenson,
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 3: really good, exciting young guy, promising some explosion. You cover
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 3: your bases. But that's where the questions start. And I
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 3: mean I put Reggie Gilliam in that group too. I
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 3: know he's a fullback with Brock Lampy competing at that
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 3: spot too. But you know, behind those guys, ev I
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 3: know you got some real estate on land Larison Islands,
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 3: so I'm sure you can talk. Was that the best
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 3: spray here for my boy? But Terrell Jennings, you know
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 3: he's been around He's a practice squad guy. He was
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 3: brought up, got hurt last year, so he's been, you know,
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 3: hanging on jam Miller. They brought in from Alabama who's
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 3: got some potential as well, and Miles Montgomery, the undrafted rookie.
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 1: It's kind of a mishmash. I don't know how that's
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: all going to play out. What do you think.
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we're putting all.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 6: These names in the hat and hopefully pulling out an
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 6: RB three out of somewhere here. You know, I still
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 6: think Glenn Arrison's going to have his day. You know,
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 6: he's gonna have a say in all of this seat
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 6: at the table. I really just like his his pass
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 6: catching ability out of the backfield. I think he runs
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 6: with good power, good sturdiness as well. We saw that
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 6: in the preseason a little bit last year before he
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 6: shut it down. But I think that he's probably, to me,
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 6: the guy that has the most skill out of this
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 6: group and kind of excites me the most. Jam Miller,
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 6: you know, maybe a little bit more as well as
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 6: you know, as the second guy in that conversation too.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 6: But I know it's not sexy, but it is going
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 6: to come down to special teams like the guy that
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 6: returns kickoffs the best, the guy that can play in
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 6: the kicking game the most. You are really banking on
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 6: Stevenson and Henderson being your your two primary backs in
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 6: this backfield. Uh, and the third guy is going to
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 6: have to find a game day role on special teams
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 6: and in the kicking game. So last year, whether it
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 6: was Terrell Jennings or Dearness Johnson or Antonio Gibson, all
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 6: of those guys returned kickoffs at some point last season.
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 6: So that's going to be a big part of this
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 6: as well. And we probably have to wait till the
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 6: preseason games to fully grasp that.
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 3: That's what I was gonna say. We always bring back
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 3: such a hard position, Paul to evaluate in training camp.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 3: I mean, you get into the preseason games, but you
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 3: got to assume that Stevenson Henderson probably not seen a
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 3: lot of carries in the preseason, so you know, they
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 3: closed opportunity probably for these guys Torell Jenning, TM Miller, Larison,
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 3: even Montgomery to get a lot of catch.
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 1: I mean, the kick returning roll is a good point too,
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: because clearly they want to stay away from some other
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 1: guys and those those train wrecks, you know, and we'll
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: talk about you know, wide receivers too. You know, there's
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of depth there and maybe one of
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: those guys factors into the return game there. But someone's
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: going to emerge out of that group. And also don't
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: dismiss the possibility. The way they use the practice squad
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 1: now with all those spots, and you know, you see
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: teams effortlessly, you know, sort of navigating that throughout the season.
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 1: The third running back very well could be on the
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: practice squad for the majority of the year.
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm not too worried about it because they have
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 6: enough names in the hat and you see these teams
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 6: just find third running backs to the late draft picks
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 6: ud fas all the time. So even though it might
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 6: not be like an Antonio Gibson who has some proven
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 6: NFL experience, I think one of these guys, like Paul said,
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 6: will eventually emerge.
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 1: All right, Well that's the running back position.
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 3: Feel great about Henderson and Stevenson, but some interesting competition
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 3: going into training camp behind them.
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 1: And now great moments in.
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 2: History Richard and Prague. Right, Sin, please tell Matt Lauer
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: lookalike he's wrong. It's pronounced Edinburgh, not Edinburgh.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: This just won't go all time out.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 4: I haven't finished time out because I.
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 2: Know he's gonna Yeah.
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 1: I was my more lenions of the email, the time out,
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: you read the whole thing as a matter of fact,
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 1: I not an offer.
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 3: Fred hasn't read any of the emails, and there have
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 3: been that have said Eric's right.
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 1: You've refused to read any of those. I've seen comments
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 1: on Twitter that's used absolutely refused.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 2: The tour guide who told him otherwise was clearly a
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 2: major bell end. I've never heard that.
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 3: That must be in Scottish frog thing. I just thought
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 3: it was funny, they said. One of the guys said
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 3: I was right, and I didn't even know what I
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 3: was saying. I was just kind of throwing like edin Burgh.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: That's another great moment from.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 2: All right back here on Patriots on Filtered eight five
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 2: to five. PATS five hundred is the hotline podcast at
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 2: Patriots dot com is the email address. Uh so we're
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 2: talking everything we were talking about. Somebody challenge us about
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 2: Jordan versus Lebron in terms of how many championships they
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 2: won and all that stuff, or how many they went
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 2: to Anthony says ten out of ten times, you take
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 2: more trips to the super Bowl as opposed to going
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 2: to less in being undefeated.
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 7: It's not up for debate. But that's different. That's a
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 7: different argument.
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 1: It is a different argument, but it is up for
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 1: debate because it's your opinion. Opinions are well by definition
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 1: for debate.
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 7: People can say that just to be demonstrative.
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 6: Alway, isn't that true if you're like tied. So I
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 6: look at it like medals in the Olympics, right, like
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 6: Brady has seven goals and he's got well how many silvers? Right,
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 6: but like that Lebron and Jordan aren't equal on golds,
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 6: Like Jordan has won more titles than Lebron, So like,
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 6: no matter how many times Lebron has been.
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: That's well, that's why Fred said, that's not the same.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's out.
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 4: Both of them are like four and four, but one
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 4: of them has been ten times.
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 2: And lost six of us more like the Montana Brady,
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 2: but Brady Montana is four for four.
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 1: People credit credited Montana with being four and oh as
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: opposed to Brady's whatever, seven and three. I'll take seven
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 1: and three over four and oh any day of the week.
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 1: I don't think that that's an arg that that to
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 1: me is not up for debate. But that's my opinion.
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 1: So someone else might say, no, Montana was better because
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 1: he went there and never lost, right.
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 2: Like, debates what about all the playoff games he lost
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 2: that Brady didn't, Because you.
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: Know, that's my mindset. That's that's why I think it's
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: more impressive to go to the super Bowl and lose
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 1: as opposed to lose forty nine to three to the
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: Giants on the way to the super Bowl, right like,
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 1: which is what Montana did in the heart of his career.
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 1: Not that it was his fault. I'm just saying, like
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 1: Brady didn't have those.
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 2: Nope, sure didn't. All right emails, Joe Wright said, Paul,
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 2: the cute little things that Mike gets excited about are
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 2: the things Tom Brady credits for turning his career around
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 2: in Michigan and getting him on the field in New England.
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 2: Attitude and energy.
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Paul, Yeah, Paul, be talking about try to kick
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 1: out my clanking bottles together, saying Warriors is not what
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 1: got Tom Brady onto about And that's what I was
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 1: teasing Mike about. So fun, No great movie I'm not
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 1: telling you that they don't have fun doing it. That's
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: absolutely fun. Just don't tell me that that's why they
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 1: be done for it, Like it's not.
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 2: It's not the act of the clanking of the bottles,
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 2: but just the camaraderie, the energy and the excitement, the friends.
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 1: You know, right, that's the The energy and camaraderie is
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 1: what I'm interested in, not the bottles. Okay, do you
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I know what you're saying, And
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 1: you can have one without the other. I just don't need. Now,
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 1: some people love that stuff. They eat it up. Matter
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 1: of fact, in this day and age in the culture,
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 1: where's that going? That's going viral today? And that's the
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 1: cute thing that people. It's just I guess I'm old
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 1: and like that stuff doesn't really resonate with me the
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: way it does probably someone who's in their mid twenties.
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 4: It doesn't resonate with me either.
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 2: But this goes back to when Paul played sports, Because
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 2: when Paul played sports, he didn't.
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 7: Like the raw ro guys.
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 1: No, I did not.
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 15: I did the heart you did, the guys that were
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 15: always like you know, I was, I was, well, you
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 15: don't have to be a heart o, but like could
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 15: but I was kind of an energy, raw ra guy
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 15: when I played.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 2: I can't.
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 1: I can't tell you that because I didn't have the talent.
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 1: That's probably why, if you want to go real armchair psychologist,
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: I pushed back on those guys because they represented my
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 1: own shortcomings.
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 2: The talented guys, these guys, the clappers. I thought you,
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 2: I thought you liked the talented guys, and you like talent.
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 1: I try hard because I envied them. But I wasn't
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: try hard because I didn't have the ability to not do.
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 2: Wait in your life, what you didn't know, you didn't try.
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 1: I tried, I tried. I tried. Believe me, I don't know.
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 1: I wasn't a lack of effort away from being in
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 1: the major leagues.
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 2: That's not what Tommy did, Debosa told me. Ever, let's
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 2: see David Wright saying, glad to see the full compliment.
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 2: How about each guy picking the player you think will
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 2: show the most improvement most, who who will show the
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 2: most improvement? I think that's an interesting Rookies are out
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 2: because they haven't improved yet. And it's hard to say
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 2: Drake because I mean he said a really high bar.
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 1: I mean, a lot of these guys play.
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 2: If you think, if you think again, the numbers don't
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 2: have to improve, but if you think mentally he's approved that,
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 2: that to me, that's a big leap.
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 1: It just falls back on semantics. All I'm gonna go
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 1: on the easiest one.
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 3: And I don't even know if I believe it, but
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna say, Kyle Williams, I knew that was can
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 3: say I.
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 4: Don't believe that. You don't believe you did not say
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 4: that with your.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 2: Is that out a hope?
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 1: That's not a VA that's got a hope, that's out
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 1: of hope, I think.
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 3: But there aren't a lot of players I feel like
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 3: you can say, like you really need something, Will Campbell,
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 3: Jarre Wilson.
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 1: I think Campbell is a good pick. I believe it.
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 2: In fact, that was what I might have picked.
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 6: I would say Craig Woodson, I think what's my pick?
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 6: The playoffs were the build and then I think this season,
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 6: you know, I think he's got a chance to be stole,
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 6: but considered one of the top ten safeties in the league.
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 3: Question for you to it, do you think do you
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 3: think they're going to go back to a little bit
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 3: more traditional safety roles with Buyered on the back end
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 3: and what's it's gonna play more in the box this year,
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 3: And I mean, I think that fits into your narrative
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 3: if he's.
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 1: Gonna be around the ball a lot more.
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I would think so, because I I don't think
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 6: you want Byered in too many man to man situations
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 6: at this point of his career. So if he ends
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 6: up over the tight end or something like that, I
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 6: don't love that matchup. So different ways to get away,
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 6: you know, around that. But Byered to me, at this
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 6: point of his career is a true center fielder, Like
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 6: he's not. He was kind of like Devin mccordy towards
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 6: the end, Like you're not going to put him in
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 6: a lot of you know, man to man foot races
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 6: things like that. You kind of want them just field
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 6: generally over the top of the defense.
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 3: Last year is such a big part of their defensive identity,
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 3: especially if they went along wards, just that those guys
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 3: were kind of interchangeable and they were They're blissed Hawkins
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 3: off the edge, then Woodson's blitzing off the edge like
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 3: they kind of you know, it was very fluid, which
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 3: I would think sometimes teams try to get to like,
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 3: well how great, like it's gonna be hard to get
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 3: a beat on. But I think we have somebody as
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 3: talented as Buyered on the back end that you're willing
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 3: to miss that or lose that.
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 2: Staying in the secondary, John and Louisiana writes in there's
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 2: a debate going on right now and asks about how
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 2: would you rank these Patriots cornerbacks ty Law, Stefan Gilmour,
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 2: and Drell Reevs. My list is Gilmore Law than Revis.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 2: I think with Gilly winning Defensive Player of the Year,
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 2: that has them over both corners. Then ty Law because
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 2: how great he was in longer tenure than Revs. I'm
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 2: a little biased because Gilmore is my favorite corner of
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 2: all time, but wondering where you guys would rank them,
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 2: certainly not Gilmore number one.
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 6: I love Gilmore. Ty Law is the best corner I've
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 6: ever seen the Patriots have.
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 7: I'm younger than some in terms of patriot ty Law's
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 7: number one.
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think ty Law's number one. I think Gilmore would.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 15: Gilmore too, and there's three because of what the Yeah,
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 15: But in terms of like overall cornerback number one.
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe you take his Jet's career.
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah right, if you're taking full careers for all three
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 1: of them. It's Revis law Gilmore.
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 3: That's your impression of his season as because I mean
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 3: he's only here one season, Revis and it was kind
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 3: of a slow start, a little bitter.
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 2: It was the end of his career.
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 1: Good. He had a better start to his career than
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 1: Gilmore did.
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 2: He was exactly what the team needed and it showed
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 2: like the defense wasn't a wary all season.
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 1: You know who killed him in Week one, first game
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 1: as a Patriot twenty fourteen, Former Patriot. I don't know,
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 1: DeVante Parker, Okay, oh I am yeah.
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 4: He also killed Gilmore.
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 1: So I just I see Gilmore check that might that
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 1: might be a poulism. You can get those mixed up.
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 1: That might that might be a paulism. I might be
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 1: thinking of Gilmore.
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Gilmore twenty nineteen.
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 3: But that front, front row seat to Gilmore. Disregard everything
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 3: I on the nineteen season other than I mean he
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 3: was amazing. I mean I remember that Cowboys game where
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 3: he was like you couldn't get away. I thought he
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 3: got beat for a touchdown at Miami in his first
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 3: game Revs. And I was thinking, he kind of looks.
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 4: Like you ate that good, and then then he was there.
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 6: They're playing so much zone, and the Browner and Revis
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 6: and all these like they're playing zone coverage and Revs
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 6: is like, what are we doing? And and Gilmore is
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 6: the same kind of thing. They started off playing a
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 6: lot of zone and then they sort of figured it out.
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 2: But I I.
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 4: I think Tyler is the best out of that Patriot
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 4: out of that.
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 7: Group, no doubt.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, physicality, I mean interceptions and clutch performance.
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 4: Right like Alpha two, like just that shut down, Like
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 4: I even.
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 3: Remember him in the late nineties before. I just looking
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 3: at that guy and being like that is an NFL
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 3: cornerback right there, and.
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 4: He's just looking at it. His pick six in the
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 4: Super Bowl is yeah, iconic.
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 2: Jeffrey in Canada, I says, Fred, you were the only
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 2: one on this show who gets to talk about the
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 2: Red Sox between now and Octoba.
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 1: Absolutely believe. He does believe, and he's proud.
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 2: Evan, this is Evan, Alex and Paul. You all waived
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 2: your rights to say anything. Evan said it was not
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 2: worth watching. Alex said, it's just a museum ballpark and
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 2: she's boycotting, and Paul said he did not buy their
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 2: recent success. Deuce, I know you're a one sport guy,
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 2: and you've probably been focusing on our defensive line depth
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 2: while eating your last lobster roll of twenty twenty six,
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 2: because eating one after the start of training camp would
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 2: be sacrilegious. Lady and gentlemen, start your engines the twenty
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 2: twenty six seasons upon us. Here are five semi bold predictions.
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 2: Patriots go eleven and six and win the AFC East's old.
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's not that interesting to me.
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 2: Though Chiefs missed the playoffs. Again, I could see that happening,
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 2: so that doesn't that's not bold either.
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 1: I don't see that happening. Is if all these reports
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 1: are accurate about Mahomes, I don't see that happen.
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 2: The forty nine Ers win the NFC West.
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 1: That's a little bold.
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 7: That's a little bold, especially with the Rams.
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 1: Three teams are really good.
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 4: I know, yeah, I still any one of them. They're
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 4: the clear third team though.
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the Dolphins will be picking first overall, not at all,
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 2: one of the worst rosters in the league. And here's
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 2: one that Paul will get on board with Caleb Williams
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 2: is the league MVP.
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 1: That's bold, that's hold because he's not he's not consistent
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 1: enough to put up the numbers that you have to
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 1: because these guys don't crazy, So these guys don't watch
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 1: the games. They just look at the stats and he'll
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 1: have like his completion percentage won't be good enough to
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 1: win it. He could play good enough, but the completion
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 1: percentage I can't see being like that gaudy seventy percent that. No,
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 1: he did.
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 2: But if he's got a bunch of yards running and
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 2: they're winning, right, he'd be in the mix.
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 1: I feel like they'd be like with him there. He
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 1: wasn't in the mix last year. He did all those things,
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 1: but his stats are just kind of pedestrian. Because that's
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 1: complete enough, right? Can we go back by the ways?
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 1: Mike Wallace?
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 4: Mike Wallace? Can we go back to the Red Sox
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 4: thing real quick?
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 1: Oh? You can't.
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 6: So I just want to say, you gotta do you
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 6: gotta separate these two things like this. To me, the
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 6: movie that comes to mind when I think about these
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 6: current Red Sox is Major League right. They're doing this
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 6: in spite of ownership and upper management. They're not doing
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 6: this because the team is pointed in the right direction
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 6: and they like are getting the resources they need or
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 6: they're doing good things. No, they're they're this is unbelievable
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 6: what they're doing.
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 2: So you don't you think obviously you think that they're
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 2: playing way above their potential their abilities.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 6: Yeah, but I'm just yeah, but I'm also just saying
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 6: that they have my My frustrations with the Red Sox
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 6: everybody else is nothing to do with the players on
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 6: the field. My frustration with the Red Sox has to
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 6: do with the dude that sits in the owner's box.
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 4: So that's why I don't like. I don't want to
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 4: give him my money until he starts taking it zero.
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 1: It's funny. I kind of agree with Evan, And you know,
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 1: I made the comment like a month ago, like I
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 1: just wish he would sell the team if he's not
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 1: really interested in trying to win. And now they're on
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 1: a winning streak and there's one guy on Twitter that
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 1: he keeps tweeting me sell the team. I feel exactly
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: the same way too, Like I want them to win
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 1: every single game. I think, I think this is unbelievable.
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 1: I was riveted to the game last night now, partly
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 1: because my son went and we were teasing them, like
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 1: you're not going to be allowed to go anymore if
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 1: you break the streak. But we were watching it in
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 1: like these games right now, the last three or four games,
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 1: it's like electric in there. It's back to normal Fenway Park.
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 1: It's not the other team's fans creating all the environment.
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 1: It's back to the Red Sox excitement. But this is
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 1: not a sustainable product. What's on the field right now
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 1: is a bunch of four players playing out of their minds.
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 1: They're catching every break imaginable. The other team made four
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 1: errors last night. The last out was an absolute missile
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 1: right at the shortstop to end the game. Like if
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 1: that's a foot up left right? Like what? Like, you know,
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 1: you're talking about a whole different thing. That's what happens
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 1: in baseball from time to time. You catch fire, you
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 1: catch the breaks. It just happened to the Marlins, a
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 1: very average team that just went twenty one and six
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 1: in June. They have the same exact record as the
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 1: Red Sox. They're not very good either. Yeah, like it happens,
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 1: But you know what, I don't care it's fun and
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 1: I watched the weekend games. The Saturday game, the Abray
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 1: home run was electric.
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 6: But I don't want to I don't want to get
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 6: it twisted because the emailer made it sound like we
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 6: can't say anything.
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 1: It's like.
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 6: My issues with the Red Sox are not on the
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 6: field level. My issues with the Red Sox are above that,
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 6: which is why I won't renew our tickets.
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 4: I've flight out.
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 6: Won't until you start actually putting and investing into the team.
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 6: Why should I invest in you? That's how I feel,
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 6: And you know what my biggest fear is.
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 7: For So the Roman Holiday contract wasn't investing in the team.
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 4: Giving a guy a contract way too early before.
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 1: It's a small contract, like, what do you mean, Well,
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 1: for guy that age, that's a lot of But that's
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 1: what they're trying to do. Yeah, they did because they
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 1: don't want to have a Mookie Betts.
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 6: They did it with Roman, they did it with Saydan Raphaela,
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 6: they did it with all these guys. Mayo, if you're
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 6: willing to sign early, they're more than willing to Christian Campbell,
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 6: if they actually like invested in real resources into the team.
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 4: They have a decent team.
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 6: They could make it really good and be a World
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 6: Series contender if they actually put it.
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 2: In and they're doing it without Croquet. He's he's been.
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 7: Hurt, and you know what.
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 1: You know what My biggest fear is Trevor's story. My
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 1: biggest fear right now is that they think they're right.
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 1: They just you know, they just won whatever twenty twenty
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 1: eight or whatever, and they think, see, the first three
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 1: months were a fluke, the last three weeks or really
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 1: what it is, this is what we thought all along,
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 1: and they're gonna continue to try to win like this.
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 1: And I'm just telling you, at some point the talent
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 1: difference between the teams that they're playing is gonna shine through.
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 1: They know pitching, the pitching has been excellent, Fred excellent.
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 1: Do you think that Sonny Gray's this good?
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 7: He's been good this year all I know.
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 1: But it's not sustainable, is what I'm saying. And my
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 1: fear is they think that they're right and they've split
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 1: the add on. We don't have to spend money like
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 1: all those dumb teams that have good players. We don't
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 1: have to do that. Fourteen in a row.
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 6: The last couple of nights when they win and they
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 6: show those guys in the in the boxes and stuff
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 6: like that, and I'm like, Paul's right, they're gonna be.
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 1: Like, see, we knew you could see that shot they
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 1: had a preslo when the game ended last night, you
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: could see.
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 4: It right again. Yeah, like he's about to be he's
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 4: about to be tarps off.
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 1: And by the way, let me just say this in defense.
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 2: I don't let whatever all that's going on take away
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 2: my enjoyment of what's going on in the field.
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 4: But we're separating the two. That's what I'm trying to
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 4: tell you.
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 1: You don't watch I did. You're boycotting the team. So
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 1: I I did watch.
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 2: I've watched this weekend all the fun young man.
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 4: I mean I I've watched like every game last Yeah.
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 4: I don't know why we keep doing that.
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't.
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 4: I think what I'm doing is totally valid. Like they they.
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 2: Do.
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 4: You know how much it costs to go to a game, Okay,
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 4: but like just to.
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 2: Walk into the penalize the guys trying working their asses off.
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 1: On how many times I said I'm separating those.
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 7: Right, but he's not watching them.
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 4: I literally watched last night.
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 1: What do you mean? But but I would say that
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 1: I have watched and you know that I but you
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 1: know I wasn't.
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 4: Sorry, but I'm not gonna watch when they're thirty.
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 1: I've watched the Tampa Bay series coming out of the
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 1: break was was a lot of fun.
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 2: You can't resist the good bouncing ball on TV. You
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 2: can't resist I don't care what the sport is, see
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 2: who's playing.
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 1: I can tell you I could resist watching World Cup
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 1: Final games that evidently weren't sleep inducing. It were good,
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 1: but it was good. I would say that the excitement
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 1: level of I didn't watch Sunday because I told you
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 1: I was out golfing, But I watched Saturday. I watched
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 1: the second game with the doubleheader on Friday, and the
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 1: game last night was absolutely riveting. It was a great
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: baseball for a regular season game. Now, obviously I wouldn't
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 1: have been glued to the if they hadn't won thirteen
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 1: in a row and it was just like, you know,
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 1: they won the last game after losing the previous two.
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't have been watching as intently as I was.
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 1: But I'm sorry. When you win fourteen in a row
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 1: like as Bob Costa says, in that clip from Moneyball,
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 1: like the randomness of baseball like that to me is fun.
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 1: That's intriguing, that's like, how can you know? I get
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 1: caught up in it.
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 2: I went to see The Odyssey last night. It was
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 2: really good.
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 1: You didn't watch the Red so.
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 4: So he's yelling at me, my goodness, stop it yelling
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 4: as you know.
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 2: It's a dark theater in your check.
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 4: Unbelievable.
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 1: What was your movie review?
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 2: Excellent?
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 7: Movie excellent, Yeah, really really good.
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 1: I want to go see it. I want to try
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 1: this for Stepher.
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 7: Nolan is a fricking genius.
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, really, I go see anything he did Planet thing,
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 1: that one I didn't quite get it. Tenant. Yeah, I
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 1: didn't get into that one. But which one? Tenant? Christopher Nolan?
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 1: I had never heard of it? Very confusing.
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 3: But I want to try this new movie theater here,
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 3: but they don't they have good deals on tickets like
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 3: eight dollar matinees.
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I heard. It's another uh in the growing
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 1: genre of its nonlinear jumps around a little bit.
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, just going you go back and forth in time.
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 2: I like the way he presented it. I really do
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 2: want to see I was the Cyclops. I heard the cyclops.
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 1: Pretty cool. Yeah, I don't want to.
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 7: I don't want to spoilers hunting.
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 4: Yeah, case people forget that Achilles is dead.
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 1: The story has been around for about two.
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 4: How many people have been like, where's Achilles? He's dead?
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 4: He died in the.
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 2: Actually in the actual poem the Odyssey, Uh, there's a
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 2: part where Odysseus goes to Hades and he meets up
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 2: with Achilles and as well as some other legends of
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 2: Greek Lord.
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 1: Go watch Troy with Brad Pitt. I was you know,
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 1: did is this a movie that you really should see
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 1: in the theater?
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 2: I would think so, Yeah, I mean actually it was
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 2: shot for Imax. I didn't see it an Imax, but yeah,
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 2: if you can see it, and I know.
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 1: Incredibly well, yeah, like three theaters in Massachusetts.
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 2: It's three hours too, so you know, tack a lunch
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 2: the days. But I I enjoyed it.
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 7: It was really good.
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 1: I've heard a lot of I haven't heard anybody have
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 1: really many bad things going to go see it? This
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 1: weekend was all sold out.
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 2: Everything all right, A five to five pasts five hundred.
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 2: Let's get to North Carolina. Eldred's on the phone, what's up?
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 4: Eldred, There we go.
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 1: How are y'all doing? Doing great?
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 10: Okay, I'm doing pretty good too, But I got one
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 10: serious question.
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 3: Okay, anybody worry about Gonzallas holding out if they try
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 3: to give him, don't give him to the stitches A.
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 1: Little bit mildly mildly a little bit, Yeah, worried about
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 1: him holding out camp, not not regular season games, but
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 1: it might link that.
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 4: Because he's not going to do that.
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 1: A little bit for me, Eldred and holding out regular
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 1: season and if he holds out like hold, if he
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 1: has a hold in in camp, I worry about him
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 1: not necessarily being ready to go at the start. And
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 1: that's when like hamstrings pulled and stuff like.
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 11: Yeah, and what's the deal with Akis? Is he uh
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 11: on the team?
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 3: And on the team we'll find out, I mean, this
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 3: is any any day now, you'll find out my prediction
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 3: for acuses he'll be here and they'll figure this out.
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean healthy.
• 1:28:17
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean if we don't see squats, did you
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 3: see that?
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 4: Great?
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 3: I mean that's question one or two for Rabel probably
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 3: on Friday when.
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 8: Prescott, well, my prediction is thirteen and four and that's
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 8: a very u.
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 12: Thirteen in fo.
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 7: Okay thirteen and four.
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 4: I like it without training for DK, all right, thanks
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 4: Aldred DK.
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 2: But but we got a J. We don't need DK
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 2: all right, thanks Aldred.
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 1: Appreciate the call.
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 2: Let's see. Kyle writes in from Pembroke joint practices. We've
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 2: got three of them this year. Are infamous for having fights.
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 2: We have joint practices with the Eagles, who haven't had
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 2: a good uh split with Brown. So I have to ask,
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 2: what do you think the odds are we get a
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 2: Rabel versus Siriani the want to be hard oh scrap
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 2: during one of the two joint practices doesn't want that smoke.
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 1: I think you have a better chance of seeing a
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 1: Rabel Sirianni altercation than anything involving a J. Brown because
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 1: from what I've been told and Red, they love him
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 1: the Eagles. The Eagles love a J. Brown. Right now,
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure that Jalen Hurts and a J. Brown
• 1:29:29
  Speaker 1: are as close as they once were. But I didn't
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 1: heard a bad thing about a J. Brown from a
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 1: member of the Eagles. Really, have you No? I heard
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 1: all just glowing things.
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 4: What about Elliott Woolf versus Howie Rose?
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 1: We bring we bring Breslo in from over they like,
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 1: don't put pres on the same they press.
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 8: Right.
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 1: I didn't want to give Breslow as flowers though I
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 1: think he had a really good off season.
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 3: Anyway, continue I'm a little interested about Gonzales and just
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 3: you know, is there a certain point where the team
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 3: he wants too much and the team says, now, like,
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 1:30:09
  Speaker 1: And that's kind of a holdover from well, they're waiting
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 1: for Witherspoon right and Witherspoon's waiting for him where I
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 1: came a chicken right now? The latest thing I saw
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 1: was that. And I don't know how someone determined this,
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 1: but the line of thought is now that Witherspoon will
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 1: be the first one to sign. So I don't know,
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 1: like they're represented by the same firm, the same aiden
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 1: as Reggie Johnson. I think, I forget I forget a
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 1: c AA, I believe. But if you go by that
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 1: Jeremy Fowler rankings from all like all the personnel people,
• 1:30:44
  Speaker 1: you know, Gonzales was three, Witherspoon was four. Maybe they
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 1: use that as a well that's a I mean, that's
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 1: just it's a little subjective list, but it gives you
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 1: a little bit of an idea. So Witherspoon should go
• 1:30:55
  Speaker 1: first and then Gonzales should re up them. I don't
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 1: know if Witherspoon is.
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 2: That it's the same firm.
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they have the same agent.
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 4: They do, so.
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 7: Make it complicates it?
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 1: I think? Because it does.
• 1:31:07
  Speaker 2: You can't say to Gonzales, listen, let him go whatever
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 2: he gets, we'll give you five percent more, right, you know.
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 7: But if it's the same agent and.
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 1: Now and now he's saying, like, you know you should
• 1:31:17
  Speaker 1: go first, well no, make him go first. Yeah right,
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 1: you know I'm better who knows? But I think they
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 1: both have a very legitimate claim to that. Yeah, title obviously,
• 1:31:30
  Speaker 1: I mean being better there with one was three and
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 1: one was four different types of yeah right yeah.
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 2: But does the agent? Does it make it more complicated
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 2: for the agent too, because if he gets more for
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 2: one like by it than the other, right right, yeah.
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 6: Yeah, So I mean it's gonna I don't think we're
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 6: going to be like in different ballparks here, Like it's
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 6: if Gonzales gets thirty two, then maybe Wetherspoon gets thirty
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 6: two in a quarter, right, Like, It's not like they're
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 6: going to be forty like I shouldn't.
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 1: Blow it out of the water more, but you never know. Yeah,
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 1: I've heard some different things.
• 1:32:04
  Speaker 2: Mike and Bocoverton about the cornerbacks for the Patriots. He says,
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 2: Patriots all time number one cornerback is Mike Haynes and
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 2: number two isn't even close. Haines was on the NFL
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 2: all time Top one hundred team, but also because of
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 2: his returning skills.
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 1: Right, no, no, but Haines was on the all time
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 1: NFL team because of his work with the Raiders.
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 2: Well true, Yeah, I.
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 4: Didn't want to bring that up.
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 2: Also, just tuned in. Not sure if you covered it.
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 2: Try to watch on the Patriots app and PU was
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 2: not available. Is it available on the Patriots dot com website?
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 2: I hope so. Yeah, and you let's check that out.
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 1: Check it out. Mike Hane's tremendous player. By the way, Yeah,
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 1: remember my tremendous corner, big corner. You don't remember Mike
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 1: Haynes way before my time?
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 2: Stop it a little over under from Mike. Yeah, it's
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 2: we got it going on the app.
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 1: So try to tap that app into your cat.
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 2: Check your starting control control F five.
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 1: I got the blue screen of death.
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 4: Did you catch your cash.
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 1: What about your your cash?
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 2: Uh little unorthodox preseason over under a regular season games
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 2: where the Patriots will be favored nine and a hay.
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 4: Well, we can find this out already.
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah right, that's out there.
• 1:33:23
  Speaker 1: Regular season games nine and a half. I'm gonna take
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 1: the over. I'll take the over. I'll take ten.
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 2: Although Pro Bowl selections are usually a popularity contest, amount
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 2: of Patriots who make the Pro Bowl three and a hay.
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna go over on that because I think they
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 3: went to the Super Bowl last year, and usually your
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 3: a year behind on some of the players, so you'll
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 3: start to get.
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 1: Some of that resision.
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 2: I think three is easy, right, you got maybe Gonzales,
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 2: Milton Williams, and Drake May.
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 4: I don't think that's easy.
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's easy either, at the risk of
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 1: going off, Fred, are we talking actual Pro bowlers or
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 1: guys that say they went to.
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 4: All because, like you said, it popular second team. I
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 4: actually think that it's the initial roster.
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah right, that that's what CENTI. That's what the censorship
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 1: based on, right, Yeah.
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that that initial roster is actually still semi legit.
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm going to take the under. Then, for the
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 1: same reason.
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 2: Evan said, yeah, okay, total points scored against the Jets
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 2: this year, total points scored two games, fifty four and
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 2: a hay over over over over.
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 4: Okay, I think they might score fifty four.
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 2: You never know what those AFC East games, you never
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 2: know in the division.
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 1: Some additions on defense. One of those games is really
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 1: late in the season, right, Yeah, that I missed the
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 1: second last one, so it could be a weather game.
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 1: That's a good number. Fifty four and a half's a
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 1: good number. I'll take the old. Just to be consistent
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 1: with everybody else, I'm gonna take the under. I'm gonna
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 1: take the under.
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 16: The Jets.
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 2: Uh home field goals made over fifty five yards by
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 2: borogalas to and a hay under.
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 1: Drake don't really fields this year. Offense is unstoppable. I don't.
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 4: I don't think is like a long range.
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 1: He had he had one last year? Though, didn't He
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 1: didn't he have like a fifty seven yard year? Did
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 1: I just invent that he might have? He went up?
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 4: I did say that he doesn't have range.
• 1:35:14
  Speaker 1: You know he's not, But like three of them, he's
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 1: not a lot.
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 4: Aubrey is kicking sixty plus yard field.
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 1: See, I'm going with the Mike Mike do Soau theory.
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 1: The offense will not be stopped. We don't need to
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 1: be kicking sixty year field goals. That's what happens in down.
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 2: T Throws for over fifty yards two and.
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 3: A hey, yeah he had a sixty three yard and
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 3: against Denver sixty three that's what it said.
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 1: No, no, that was a sorry, it was a long. Yeah,
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 1: he missed my sorry.
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 2: Touchdowns for over fifty yards plus two and a hay
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 2: over over fifty yards yeah, under over over.
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 4: That's deep streak.
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 3: May we're talking about deep Come on, come on, now,
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 3: come on now, Paul, you know I got an emmy
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 3: pretty good.
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 1: I didn't say he didn't have an anim Has that been?
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 1: What are you in?
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 4: Workshopping a little bit?
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 1: So he didn't have any.
• 1:36:06
  Speaker 2: Let's see, back to the phone. We got Chucky in Wisconsin.
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 2: What's up, Chucky gees in Wisconsin?
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 16: Yeah, yeah, hey guys, thanks for taking my call and
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 16: welcome back.
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 1: Thanks to the guy who's been away.
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 16: Hey, I got one that's been festering for a few
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 16: months now, and I thought the off season here as
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 16: we're wrapping up, might be a good time to get it,
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 16: Paul A little.
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 1: Bit good so good luck both shows, So.
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 16: Evan's in on this too. Both shows we talked about
• 1:36:36
  Speaker 16: drag May and the playoff performances, and I guess I'm
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 16: sort of an analytics guy at heart. But ultimately, if
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 16: you look at the weather in the Houston game, why
• 1:36:49
  Speaker 16: are people we shouldn't put the ball on the ground.
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 16: Why are people griping about three really beautiful touchdown passes
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 16: and saying that he didn't perform in the playoffs. So
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 16: thanks for taking the call, and I'll take it off
• 1:37:02
  Speaker 16: the air.
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, I thought we were going to have
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 1: a talk like those we can't hit and run just
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 1: a drive by? Yeah, I mean he maybe the best
• 1:37:13
  Speaker 1: throw that I saw and making the all the playoffs
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 1: was the throw to Hunter Henry for a touchdown against
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 1: the Chargers. Like I can pick out plays that were
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 1: really good throws, but when you complete fifty percent of
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 1: your passes like the like, the body of your work
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 1: just wasn't that good. When you fumbled the ball how
• 1:37:32
  Speaker 1: many times four in the Houston games? And does that
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 1: not count?
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 4: Analytically? He did not play well in the playoffs.
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 1: Analytically eyeball test. Yeah, like he did enough to win
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 1: the games and he deserves credit for that. And yes,
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 1: he played against good defenses, and yes he played in
• 1:37:53
  Speaker 1: bad weather, but he didn't play that well.
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 2: That's the question, you know.
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 1: So for Chuck e.
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 2: Cheese, I'm the throw it back at you, but you
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 2: know you decided to leave. What if the Patriots defense
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 2: hadn't been playing so well?
• 1:38:05
  Speaker 1: Well, I would also say, like, so he made a
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 1: great throw, like I said to Hunter Henry, and he
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 1: made a great throw like to Dig, Like we're just
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 1: counting all the touchdowns of great throws, Like does Digs
• 1:38:17
  Speaker 1: not get any credit for that ridiculous catch in the
• 1:38:20
  Speaker 1: end zone in Houston? That was like right in the
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 1: middle of like three guys. Yes, the throw was perfect,
• 1:38:25
  Speaker 1: but how many guys catch that? And I'm sorry, the
• 1:38:28
  Speaker 1: booty catch is ridiculous. That was amazing better catch? Yeah, right, right,
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 1: So you made the same throw and that ball's incomplete
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 1: and no one's saying, oh geez, you know that ball's
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 1: got to get caught. But that's just the fine line.
• 1:38:44
  Speaker 1: Like the Patriots had a special year last year and
• 1:38:47
  Speaker 1: those things all went for them, and Drake May was
• 1:38:49
  Speaker 1: part of that and the receivers were part of that,
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 1: like they deserve to win those games because they made
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 1: those plays. But it wasn't just Drake May making those
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 1: plays in the playoffs. Now, a lot of times during
• 1:39:01
  Speaker 1: the regular season it was Drake May, but in the
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 1: playoffs it was, as Fred said, the defense dominating all
• 1:39:07
  Speaker 1: those turnovers. And then Marcus Jones completely changed the I mean,
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 1: I know that he didn't have a lot to he
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 1: caught a punt. Yeah, it was it Milton Williams that
• 1:39:15
  Speaker 1: killed Stroud on that play that he threw up the
• 1:39:17
  Speaker 1: punch for grabs. Yeah, that completely changed that games. Yeah,
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 1: I mean he had his moments.
• 1:39:23
  Speaker 3: You know, you don't win three playoff games without your
• 1:39:25
  Speaker 3: quarterback having some moments, but just the sum total of it,
• 1:39:28
  Speaker 3: you know, no, we didn't have many.
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 2: We talked about like the Denver game. You know, the
• 1:39:33
  Speaker 2: one of the biggest plays was that twenty eight yards
• 1:39:35
  Speaker 2: scramble that he had or you know, the flee flicker play.
• 1:39:40
  Speaker 2: But you can't tell me that Drake May had a
• 1:39:43
  Speaker 2: good offensive game in Denver.
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, the weather is going to be the weather, right.
• 1:39:48
  Speaker 2: It's the weather.
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 7: Weather affected that game, and it affected the Houston game.
• 1:39:52
  Speaker 6: Right, But my point is is maybe the defenses won't
• 1:39:55
  Speaker 6: be as good because I was a gauntlet. Let's face it, Like,
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 6: you know, like Houston, Seattle, Denver was three of the
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 6: best defense in the league all year long. But January
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 6: football and Foxborough is going to be bad weather, Like
• 1:40:06
  Speaker 6: when they get into the playoffs every single year they're not.
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 6: It's not going to be seventy in sunny, It's going
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 6: to be bad weather.
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 1: How did the defense play and those those three playoff games, right,
• 1:40:16
  Speaker 1: the Patriots defense. We don't say, well, there was bad
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 1: weather for the other team right now. No, we say
• 1:40:22
  Speaker 1: the Patriots defense played great because they did the red
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 1: zone defense woke up for the first time all year.
• 1:40:27
  Speaker 1: But how about the stunts and the pressure that we
• 1:40:30
  Speaker 1: didn't see all year?
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 4: They did?
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 1: They don't have that amount of pressure.
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 2: We might have ruined c J.
• 1:40:34
  Speaker 1: Stroud.
• 1:40:35
  Speaker 6: I mean either right, Herbert took a beating that now, absolutely,
• 1:40:43
  Speaker 6: and they already had one hand.
• 1:40:44
  Speaker 4: He was already.
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 1: But like, we don't say, like, no, the weather was
• 1:40:48
  Speaker 1: bad so c J. Stroud was was turnover prone.
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 3: No, we say the Patriots defense killed Yeah, that was
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 3: the Milwilliams When I was that popped into my head
• 1:40:55
  Speaker 3: when you said.
• 1:40:55
  Speaker 2: That was on was on Herbert, Yeah, David and Florida.
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 2: I work retail, and so once I'm completely caught up
• 1:41:03
  Speaker 2: on the podcast, I often go back a few years
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 2: to listen to old shows from when they do that.
• 1:41:08
  Speaker 2: I don't don't judge me, Evan, some of us have
• 1:41:13
  Speaker 2: to work.
• 1:41:13
  Speaker 4: I'm not judging you. I'm just judging you. Why do
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 4: you like there's got to be something better that you
• 1:41:20
  Speaker 4: can do?
• 1:41:21
  Speaker 2: I could not help but notice the first show after
• 1:41:23
  Speaker 2: drafting Cole Strange, the best compliment the panel could give
• 1:41:27
  Speaker 2: about Strange was Fred saying, listen, what I hear is
• 1:41:30
  Speaker 2: that he's a really nice guy. And that made me
• 1:41:32
  Speaker 2: laugh out loud.
• 1:41:33
  Speaker 1: This was before Evan, right, don't play it.
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 4: I don't know what to say. The Patriots have drafted
• 1:41:47
  Speaker 4: offensive Strange from Chattanooga. We can stop it there.
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 2: Like there's a question like, really along the same line,
• 1:41:56
  Speaker 2: do you guys ever go back and watch full games
• 1:41:59
  Speaker 2: during the odd days of the off season, not just
• 1:42:01
  Speaker 2: for film breakdown? If so, what games are go tos?
• 1:42:05
  Speaker 2: I personally love rewatching primetime games like the Giants Monday
• 1:42:08
  Speaker 2: night football game, great show.
• 1:42:11
  Speaker 1: I mean I don't watch. I don't games I do.
• 1:42:13
  Speaker 3: I do will flip on some highlights from time to
• 1:42:15
  Speaker 3: time when I feel like, wait, what happened in that game?
• 1:42:17
  Speaker 3: Because I find I don't know if it's just doing
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 3: this job or maybe it's just getting old. Like Paul
• 1:42:21
  Speaker 3: we talk about, I have trouble like what exactly happened
• 1:42:25
  Speaker 3: in that game? You know, like they all kind of
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 3: start to blend together. So sometimes but the super Bowl,
• 1:42:28
  Speaker 3: I haven't watched really. I mean I've looked at parts
• 1:42:31
  Speaker 3: of it, but I haven't watched.
• 1:42:32
  Speaker 1: I haven't. I haven't watched the super Bowl either. The
• 1:42:34
  Speaker 1: only thing I would say sometimes NFL network will just
• 1:42:37
  Speaker 1: replay random right and whether the Patriots or not. I
• 1:42:40
  Speaker 1: would never sit there and watch three hours of a replay,
• 1:42:43
  Speaker 1: but like I would maybe clicking on in highlight, Oh
• 1:42:46
  Speaker 1: you watch this drive? No, not unless there's something very specific.
• 1:42:51
  Speaker 7: It's not at midnight.
• 1:42:53
  Speaker 4: No, But like I've watches them the first time and
• 1:42:55
  Speaker 4: then and then he watches it again.
• 1:42:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not a big case he missed any I'm
• 1:42:59
  Speaker 1: not a big rewatch guy. And that might be because
• 1:43:01
  Speaker 1: of that weird thing that I have with the recall,
• 1:43:05
  Speaker 1: Like I kind of remember the sequence? Yeah, now again,
• 1:43:09
  Speaker 1: ask me what happened like two hours ago? I can't
• 1:43:12
  Speaker 1: tell you.
• 1:43:13
  Speaker 2: Uh, Sam writes in I haven't seen it yet, but
• 1:43:17
  Speaker 2: love it of Fred loved the show. Oh that he's
• 1:43:20
  Speaker 2: talking about he's talking about Live at the Toby House.
• 1:43:24
  Speaker 1: Oh okay, I thought he was talking about Fortunately I hope.
• 1:43:26
  Speaker 2: So anyway, go subscribe. What do you guys think the
• 1:43:32
  Speaker 2: headlines will be after the first week of training camp?
• 1:43:35
  Speaker 2: What will Felger be grilling Greg Bagard on Will Campbell?
• 1:43:39
  Speaker 3: How's will Campbell look through the first three practices in shorts?
• 1:43:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 1:43:46
  Speaker 4: Is Caleb Blom who already pushed it to do it?
• 1:43:48
  Speaker 1: Go ahead?
• 1:43:49
  Speaker 4: Now do you do?
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 1: Fel I'll do Badard?
• 1:43:52
  Speaker 3: Now you when you drafted him that this was the
• 1:43:54
  Speaker 3: player you were getting.
• 1:43:55
  Speaker 2: Headline Drake may guaranteed not to regress.
• 1:43:59
  Speaker 7: That'll be the head I I think.
• 1:44:02
  Speaker 3: There's a strong chance it's where's Gonzales? How are they
• 1:44:04
  Speaker 3: going to figure this out?
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 1: The number one thing is Gonzales. If you're tell me
• 1:44:08
  Speaker 1: that he has not had a contract and he's participating
• 1:44:12
  Speaker 1: fully in camp, then maybe it'll go away. But if
• 1:44:15
  Speaker 1: he's doing anything resembling what he did in the spring
• 1:44:18
  Speaker 1: without a contract. That's the number one thing. And then
• 1:44:20
  Speaker 1: the second thing is AJ Brown. How's A Brown Brown? Yeah,
• 1:44:24
  Speaker 1: I mean that's I think to football.
• 1:44:25
  Speaker 3: I mean i'd put Akis in kind of the Gonzales
• 1:44:27
  Speaker 3: bucket of the two outstanding personnel issues.
• 1:44:31
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I think A J.
• 1:44:32
  Speaker 3: Brown will certainly be a big focus as we get
• 1:44:34
  Speaker 3: into it. You know, how's Drake looking?
• 1:44:37
  Speaker 1: Your two and you know, are of these young guys improving?
• 1:44:40
  Speaker 1: You know that kind of stuff.
• 1:44:41
  Speaker 2: One of the headlines will read this book AJ Brown
• 1:44:44
  Speaker 2: sparkles in camp.
• 1:44:46
  Speaker 4: I mean, are we thinking AJ Brown is going to
• 1:44:49
  Speaker 4: do anything else besides AJ Brown?
• 1:44:52
  Speaker 7: But they'll they'll that'll be you know, obviously it a
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 7: headline when he does.
• 1:44:55
  Speaker 1: Okay, I just feel like, you know, you don't feel
• 1:44:57
  Speaker 1: like we're going to overreact to like AJ Brown? Did
• 1:45:00
  Speaker 1: you see that? Like I felt like I wrote like
• 1:45:02
  Speaker 1: one hundred words on his catching mini camp to lead
• 1:45:05
  Speaker 1: my feature for the book over it totally overreacted Maybe in.
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 6: That sense I thought you meant more like is like
• 1:45:13
  Speaker 6: working with AJ Brown? Because you're saying fulger and Maz Like,
• 1:45:16
  Speaker 6: to me, that's the negative slant of.
• 1:45:19
  Speaker 1: No, Like, well, I don't take it that way. I
• 1:45:21
  Speaker 1: think that they're gonna be Look, what are the storylines, like,
• 1:45:24
  Speaker 1: what are the big storylines?
• 1:45:25
  Speaker 4: I like punching bags.
• 1:45:27
  Speaker 6: So besides, I agree with the Gonzales stuff and the
• 1:45:30
  Speaker 6: act and stuff like Will Campbell is, Will Campbell's gonna
• 1:45:33
  Speaker 6: be one of them a lightning rod, right, you know,
• 1:45:35
  Speaker 6: he's gonna ask Baard how Will Campbell looks? But Dodd's
• 1:45:38
  Speaker 6: gonna say something like I had him.
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 4: He had seven pluses.
• 1:45:43
  Speaker 1: I had I had him for two plus plays in
• 1:45:47
  Speaker 1: the one on ones he was one one and one,
• 1:45:50
  Speaker 1: but the loss went against Draymond Jones, So that's trouble again,
• 1:45:58
  Speaker 1: that's good.
• 1:45:59
  Speaker 3: I would say along those lines, though, if there was
• 1:46:01
  Speaker 3: a storyline of Achus is practicing or Elijah Ponder one
• 1:46:04
  Speaker 3: of the young edge guys are kind of popping a
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 3: little bit, like you know, and then that would be
• 1:46:07
  Speaker 3: that maybe the opposite of the Will Campbell, like Elijah
• 1:46:10
  Speaker 3: Ponder's been given Will Campbell a hard time. Is that
• 1:46:12
  Speaker 3: a good sign for Elijah Ponder? Is that a buy
• 1:46:14
  Speaker 3: a bad sign for Will Campbell?
• 1:46:15
  Speaker 1: If you want to go completely negative, if that's the
• 1:46:18
  Speaker 1: way you're looking at it with Felger, Like what's it
• 1:46:20
  Speaker 1: going to be railing against my guess is the media
• 1:46:24
  Speaker 1: because my shock, my my feel will be that we
• 1:46:29
  Speaker 1: will all be writing a lot of really good stuff
• 1:46:32
  Speaker 1: because like AJ Brown's gonna look good and Drake may
• 1:46:35
  Speaker 1: is gonna look comfortable in year two and Felger is
• 1:46:38
  Speaker 1: going to read all these stories. Oh, this is like
• 1:46:41
  Speaker 1: the best team in football. You know, there's got to
• 1:46:44
  Speaker 1: be something that's an issue down there. Is anybody see
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 1: anything that you know? Because because every diary like we're dying,
• 1:46:50
  Speaker 1: the punching bag will be the media because which is
• 1:46:53
  Speaker 1: not feeding them in a negative.
• 1:46:54
  Speaker 4: Very big The poor Celtics beat just gets right for
• 1:46:58
  Speaker 4: the Coles.
• 1:47:00
  Speaker 1: He has one guy, Gary Washburn is the only guy
• 1:47:03
  Speaker 1: that he'll even take with any monica of legitimacy some.
• 1:47:07
  Speaker 4: Of the things he says.
• 1:47:09
  Speaker 2: I agree with Brandon's and Syracuse what's up Brandon Brandon?
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 2: Syracuse Orange Men, No nothing, You're gone? Okay, Uh We'll
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 2: go out to the west Johns and Wyoming, what's up? John?
• 1:47:27
  Speaker 1: Hey? Can you guys hear me?
• 1:47:29
  Speaker 2: Sure?
• 1:47:29
  Speaker 1: Ken a long time listener, first time caller. I love
• 1:47:34
  Speaker 1: your guys the show.
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 8: I love that you guys do I hope Evan.
• 1:47:38
  Speaker 1: And Paul had a good vacation. Thanks.
• 1:47:40
  Speaker 7: Thanks.
• 1:47:41
  Speaker 3: One question one of the Patriots rival Jersey's gonna be
• 1:47:45
  Speaker 3: back in stock take it off there?
• 1:47:47
  Speaker 2: Okay, thanks? Do we have the dates for the rivalry?
• 1:47:50
  Speaker 2: I think they were gonna wear him twice.
• 1:47:52
  Speaker 1: Maybe he wants to know that.
• 1:47:53
  Speaker 3: I don't know that back in the stop is wand
• 1:47:55
  Speaker 3: I I mean I was my understanding that it was
• 1:47:58
  Speaker 3: in the spring sometime, but I I've not seen them yet.
• 1:48:00
  Speaker 3: Maybe it's incomplicated by the World Cup and the whole
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 3: Pro Shop had to move. I don't know if that
• 1:48:05
  Speaker 3: had something to do with it, but they are moving
• 1:48:07
  Speaker 3: back into the Pro Shop, so I mean I would hope.
• 1:48:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know anything that they be back for training camp.
• 1:48:11
  Speaker 1: That seems like, well, I.
• 1:48:12
  Speaker 2: Find out and we'll get the answer. For Thursday's shows'll
• 1:48:14
  Speaker 2: be done in spring before the World Rivalry and Jerseys
• 1:48:18
  Speaker 2: back and stocked. Yeah, the popular item I had a
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 2: lot of I wonder if they'll have new a new
• 1:48:22
  Speaker 2: line of I mean.
• 1:48:23
  Speaker 3: The colors will get and why you can because those
• 1:48:25
  Speaker 3: things were like hotcakes.
• 1:48:27
  Speaker 2: That was a real success, those rivalries, and.
• 1:48:29
  Speaker 6: It like seemed like it grew on people like I
• 1:48:32
  Speaker 6: feel like the original release, everybody was like, what the
• 1:48:34
  Speaker 6: heck is that?
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 4: And then like as people looked at it more.
• 1:48:37
  Speaker 2: But you know, I had a sneak peek at that
• 1:48:39
  Speaker 2: long before they got from the get go. I said,
• 1:48:42
  Speaker 2: these are cool, like the white helmet with the current
• 1:48:46
  Speaker 2: logo and the color was it was just I did
• 1:48:48
  Speaker 2: like the color. They really it's really hard to go
• 1:48:51
  Speaker 2: completely different from your scheme and be successful. I think
• 1:48:55
  Speaker 2: that hit a home run.
• 1:48:56
  Speaker 3: I too, I mean that was I thought. I mean
• 1:48:58
  Speaker 3: it'd be interesting to see. I guess eight more teams
• 1:49:00
  Speaker 3: will do them this year, so you'll get another sense
• 1:49:01
  Speaker 3: of right, you know how many teams.
• 1:49:03
  Speaker 1: That's a good point. I liked them all last year,
• 1:49:05
  Speaker 1: and sooner or later someone's going to come with something
• 1:49:07
  Speaker 1: you're like, oh my god, what would they think? That's awful?
• 1:49:10
  Speaker 1: The Jets. The Jets have like an all white thing. Yeah,
• 1:49:14
  Speaker 1: but it's I thought they I thought they maybe it
• 1:49:17
  Speaker 1: has nothing to do with the rivalry thing, but I
• 1:49:19
  Speaker 1: saw something white with the old white.
• 1:49:22
  Speaker 2: Helmet kind of waving the white flat probably, but I did.
• 1:49:27
  Speaker 1: Think it looked. It looked good. But like the Rams
• 1:49:29
  Speaker 1: one last year was pretty good.
• 1:49:30
  Speaker 6: I thought, I like the they wore one was kind
• 1:49:35
  Speaker 6: of different.
• 1:49:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't really see one that I was like, Oh, usually,
• 1:49:39
  Speaker 1: let's face it.
• 1:49:40
  Speaker 6: Usually, I mean it's the swag also with the Patriots
• 1:49:44
  Speaker 6: rivalry stuff, it is really cool, like the jackets and
• 1:49:47
  Speaker 6: the hoodies and like.
• 1:49:48
  Speaker 1: I think that I really like the Patriots stuff that
• 1:49:51
  Speaker 1: that they they put out. I hope there is I
• 1:49:53
  Speaker 1: agree with the caller. I hope that they produced more
• 1:49:56
  Speaker 1: of that.
• 1:49:57
  Speaker 2: It's in North Carolina.
• 1:49:58
  Speaker 10: Hey, ed, Hey, hey, gentlemen, Oh, I didn't know I
• 1:50:04
  Speaker 10: was through there.
• 1:50:04
  Speaker 2: Use that.
• 1:50:08
  Speaker 10: I've been listening since you drafted my fellow Tar Hill alum,
• 1:50:11
  Speaker 10: Drake May of you, guys, I had an interesting kind
• 1:50:14
  Speaker 10: of question for you, and it relates to the kickoff
• 1:50:17
  Speaker 10: changes we've seen in the last couple of years. Knowing
• 1:50:20
  Speaker 10: these kickoff changes want to kind of encourage kickoff returns.
• 1:50:25
  Speaker 10: When are we going to see a team take a
• 1:50:27
  Speaker 10: non kicker on special teams and have them kick off.
• 1:50:30
  Speaker 10: It leaves you someone on the back end that can
• 1:50:33
  Speaker 10: make the play if the returner breaks through. And quite frankly, gentlemen,
• 1:50:37
  Speaker 10: it's not that hard to kick the ball fifty or
• 1:50:39
  Speaker 10: sixty yards.
• 1:50:40
  Speaker 1: What do you think, well, Kansas City did it a
• 1:50:43
  Speaker 1: little bit, but I would think that it is kind
• 1:50:48
  Speaker 1: of a specialized skill to kick the ball where you want.
• 1:50:51
  Speaker 4: Especially the landing zone.
• 1:50:54
  Speaker 6: I don't think that we've seen it be enough of
• 1:50:58
  Speaker 6: an explosive play to need to put another like athlete
• 1:51:03
  Speaker 6: on the field. If it was, like if there was
• 1:51:05
  Speaker 6: like returns happening every single week and it was kind
• 1:51:08
  Speaker 6: of what we're seeing more of is like can you
• 1:51:10
  Speaker 6: get the thirty yard line is like sort of the
• 1:51:13
  Speaker 6: line of demarcation that most coaches are going for. So
• 1:51:16
  Speaker 6: I don't know if there's the need.
• 1:51:18
  Speaker 1: And the penalty correct refresh my memory, the penalty for
• 1:51:24
  Speaker 1: not hitting it in the landing area is to the
• 1:51:26
  Speaker 1: forty right, yeah, So I don't know if that's worth
• 1:51:29
  Speaker 1: the risk.
• 1:51:29
  Speaker 6: Yeah, they changed the there's one loophole that they I
• 1:51:33
  Speaker 6: think they shored up this offseason where like when the
• 1:51:36
  Speaker 6: kickoff gets moved up, yeah because of a penalty, Like
• 1:51:40
  Speaker 6: if you it's makes more sense to like kick it
• 1:51:43
  Speaker 6: outside the landing zone, and they fix that, but like
• 1:51:46
  Speaker 6: the kick.
• 1:51:47
  Speaker 1: It out of bounds yeah yeah, yeah.
• 1:51:49
  Speaker 6: I don't know if they really there's definitely been more returns, yep.
• 1:51:56
  Speaker 6: I don't think there have been more longer returns.
• 1:51:59
  Speaker 7: Right usually get to around the third right, and so I.
• 1:52:02
  Speaker 4: Think that that's it's worked, and it hasn't. I guess
• 1:52:05
  Speaker 4: I'm trying to say, who's.
• 1:52:06
  Speaker 1: Going to be the Patriots kick returner this year?
• 1:52:08
  Speaker 6: Thanks that their third running back and uh maybe like
• 1:52:14
  Speaker 6: Kyle Williams or wherever they're.
• 1:52:15
  Speaker 4: Like take it.
• 1:52:16
  Speaker 3: We don't have a like a this is like Antonio
• 1:52:19
  Speaker 3: Gibson last year felt like he's going to become for Wednesday.
• 1:52:22
  Speaker 6: The third running back has been what whoever that was?
• 1:52:25
  Speaker 6: Deernest Johnson Terrell?
• 1:52:27
  Speaker 1: I mean, is that something tells me late later they
• 1:52:30
  Speaker 1: really they have to fill this kickoff returns?
• 1:52:32
  Speaker 2: I guess, like.
• 1:52:34
  Speaker 1: Are you okay with that?
• 1:52:35
  Speaker 6: Regie Gilliam, big impact blocker on kickoff return Ray Davis Buffalo, Yeah,
• 1:52:44
  Speaker 6: all pro for the last year last year, you know,
• 1:52:48
  Speaker 6: because Regie g William really good lead blocker. I think
• 1:52:51
  Speaker 6: to the caller's point about the kicker, the thing I'm
• 1:52:53
  Speaker 6: more interested in is like are we ever going to
• 1:52:56
  Speaker 6: get more creative with the returns themselves? Like how they're
• 1:52:59
  Speaker 6: block and how you know you put two guys back
• 1:53:02
  Speaker 6: there and maybe have you know, reverses and things like
• 1:53:04
  Speaker 6: that everybody's played it like super safe so far, Like
• 1:53:09
  Speaker 6: they really haven't done anything. They've done some stunting and
• 1:53:13
  Speaker 6: like looping with blockers, but nothing like too crazy like it.
• 1:53:17
  Speaker 1: No. I mean it's definitely added returns, so it's done
• 1:53:22
  Speaker 1: what they wanted it to take that part of it,
• 1:53:23
  Speaker 1: I guess, but I don't. I don't really like it.
• 1:53:26
  Speaker 4: I just feel like they still wed.
• 1:53:29
  Speaker 6: I just feel like there's a lot more meat on
• 1:53:31
  Speaker 6: that bone, and I think nobody, for whatever reason, teams
• 1:53:35
  Speaker 6: are afraid to risk it like that. They feel like
• 1:53:37
  Speaker 6: there might be a m i you know, lead to
• 1:53:39
  Speaker 6: a turnover or something.
• 1:53:40
  Speaker 3: I don't know Spring Lab this offseason, but there.
• 1:53:44
  Speaker 6: Just seems to be like something there that, like especially
• 1:53:46
  Speaker 6: if you need it, like late in the game and
• 1:53:48
  Speaker 6: like you need like a big momentum play or something
• 1:53:50
  Speaker 6: like that.
• 1:53:51
  Speaker 1: Averse drop a name.
• 1:53:52
  Speaker 2: I was having lunch with Ernie Adams and this was
• 1:53:56
  Speaker 2: when they originally came up with the new rule, and
• 1:53:59
  Speaker 2: I said to them, you know, I really think that
• 1:54:01
  Speaker 2: this thing could lend itself to some really unique blocking schemes.
• 1:54:05
  Speaker 2: And he was like he got like really excited for
• 1:54:07
  Speaker 2: a second and he's like yeah, and then but he
• 1:54:10
  Speaker 2: held back. You wouldn't tell me what he was thinking,
• 1:54:12
  Speaker 2: because I think he's just so conditioned to not give
• 1:54:15
  Speaker 2: out information. But his eyes lit up, like yeah, so,
• 1:54:19
  Speaker 2: I bet you if he was still in the game,
• 1:54:22
  Speaker 2: on the team that he was on, you might see
• 1:54:24
  Speaker 2: some stuff.
• 1:54:24
  Speaker 4: The Bills would do some things, and Gilliam was a
• 1:54:27
  Speaker 4: big part of it. So maybe it's a weapon part
• 1:54:29
  Speaker 4: of it.
• 1:54:30
  Speaker 3: Because I was I mean, I was kind of saying, like,
• 1:54:31
  Speaker 3: is it bad that they don't really? I mean, maybe
• 1:54:33
  Speaker 3: they do have a plan, but from the outside looking in,
• 1:54:35
  Speaker 3: it doesn't seem like it seems to a place where
• 1:54:37
  Speaker 3: let's just have a.
• 1:54:38
  Speaker 1: Guy in there. I think though, I mean, I think
• 1:54:40
  Speaker 1: Henderson should be an option now maybe if they feel
• 1:54:44
  Speaker 1: like he's too valuable to the offense, but I don't.
• 1:54:47
  Speaker 1: Isn't it kind of just a running play? Yeah?
• 1:54:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, but I'm just like, if I'm jam Miller,
• 1:54:52
  Speaker 3: I'm like, kid, you got a real opportunity here, Like,
• 1:54:54
  Speaker 3: you got a real opportunity to, you know, be the guy,
• 1:54:57
  Speaker 3: Like this is a role that.
• 1:54:58
  Speaker 1: Is completely Anderson's like explosiveness. To me, is Taylor made
• 1:55:03
  Speaker 1: for that? I Mean, Marcus Jones is every bit is
• 1:55:05
  Speaker 1: valued more so. Yeah, really, and he's an electric weapon
• 1:55:08
  Speaker 1: on party turns. I would hate to see them take
• 1:55:10
  Speaker 1: that away from it.
• 1:55:11
  Speaker 2: I think reverses and stuff like that, because unlike running play,
• 1:55:15
  Speaker 2: where you have the line of scrimmage bunched in, these
• 1:55:17
  Speaker 2: guys are spread out. So if if you can take
• 1:55:20
  Speaker 2: advantage of that and get guys go in the wrong direction,
• 1:55:23
  Speaker 2: you've got a little bit more time to get up
• 1:55:25
  Speaker 2: to full speed.
• 1:55:26
  Speaker 1: I don't know you're looking for creas but.
• 1:55:32
  Speaker 6: Last year, right, I don't know if they would do
• 1:55:34
