Full Transcript for MTP Boston: The Patriots Panic; Maye, Vrabel and the Buffalo Horizon

00:05:01.279 Why is every throw over the middle and we're not checking down? 00:05:01.439 --> 00:05:03.360 What like what are we doing on offense? 00:05:03.519 --> 00:05:12.079 The defense just was able to stand up because I'm sure Rogers was distracted by fake girlfriends and his girlfriend's new TV show, Shout Out Woodley. 00:05:12.560 --> 00:05:18.399 Um, you know, I I didn't leave that game with the warm and fuzzy feeling in my stomach about the offense. 00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:20.879 I still felt like we were laughing. 00:05:21.759 --> 00:05:28.000 Yeah, I think I just felt after watching that game, I'm like it it didn't matter how bad Drake would play. 00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:29.120 We were still gonna beat them. 00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:37.680 And I only say that because that's reinforced by last year when the offense turned the ball over five times and we only lost in the in the last in the last couple of minutes, right? 00:05:37.759 --> 00:05:38.160 Yep. 00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:41.439 So uh I hate Aaron Rodgers. 00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:42.319 We all know that. 00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:50.399 Um you know, obviously, best of luck to him and Mantiteo's ex-girlfriend's twin sister. 00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:53.759 I'm gonna keep saying that all fucking year because fuck him. 00:05:54.079 --> 00:06:04.480 Um but there was there was a part of this game that felt very the whole part of it, the whole thing felt sloppy, you know, offensively. 00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:09.600 But the thing that really stuck to me was that ending sequence in the first half, right? 00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:12.240 Where, you know, the Patriots have been doing this since Bill. 00:06:12.480 --> 00:06:17.920 You defer, you get the ball at the end of the half, because then you theoretically you could score twice. 00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:23.759 You're down 14 to 3, so you're thinking, okay, they haven't, they actually had the opportunity over the next two possessions to take a lead. 00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:35.680 They're down near the goal line and two runs up the middle with the sole purpose of getting Jacksonville to take timeouts or to drain the clock. 00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:38.399 They weren't even trying to score in those plays. 00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:45.199 So what you do is you put your offense in a position where in third down, the defense knows you have to throw it. 00:06:45.839 --> 00:06:57.279 And with Drake May's, I don't know, mental fucking breakdown, which we are very familiar with here at MTP, I think you put him in a really tough position. 00:06:58.240 --> 00:06:59.600 Am I reading too much into this? 00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:00.639 Did you feel the same way? 00:07:00.959 --> 00:07:01.600 No, you're right. 00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:02.079 You're right. 00:07:02.240 --> 00:07:07.199 And it goes to an inability of Josh McDaniels to identify the fact that you have a real issue here. 00:07:07.439 --> 00:07:13.439 Instead of scoring and then letting the defense stand up to whatever

they have from the 30-yard line. 00:07:13.600 --> 00:07:14.720 No, let's we'll fuck around. 00:07:14.800 --> 00:07:16.000 Let's fuck around with this team. 00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:20.079 Forget the fact that we've missed three wide open passes into the corner. 00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:22.560 We're gonna go to Matt Collins again and we'll just try it. 00:07:22.639 --> 00:07:23.920 We'll we'll try it on third down. 00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:25.120 Great, good job, boys. 00:07:25.360 --> 00:07:26.560 And look at what happened. 00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:27.920 I think it's top to bottom. 00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:30.240 I think coaching sucks, I think offense sucks. 00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:32.399 I think this week the defense looked like shit. 00:07:32.560 --> 00:07:34.319 The penalties were crazy. 00:07:34.560 --> 00:07:36.879 Um, and obviously special teams. 00:07:37.040 --> 00:07:38.560 What like what are we doing? 00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:40.240 What is happening here? 00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:45.680 My first instinct, being a Patriot fan and a lifelong Boston sports fan is probably similar to yours. 00:07:45.759 --> 00:07:47.360 Like, I want to blame Josh. 00:07:47.519 --> 00:07:55.120 I of course, however, I don't know like how much, you know, because we you know we're both trying to be functional human beings with you know a family. 00:07:55.360 --> 00:08:05.839 I don't know how much you've been able to look into this, but the growing consensus amongst Patriots insiders is that those are not the plays that Josh called. 00:08:06.079 --> 00:08:06.319 Right. 00:08:06.399 --> 00:08:09.439 I think that Vrabel overwrote him. 00:08:09.600 --> 00:08:10.240 Yep. 00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:10.800 Yep. 00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:12.480 So what are you doing? 00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:21.199 If you're Vrabel and you know that, first of all, you're a defensive mind, you worked for the Browns as a defensive player, your Titans' defenses were great. 00:08:21.439 --> 00:08:25.439 Why would you step on Josh McDaniels, who is the proven offensive coordinator? 00:08:25.600 --> 00:08:28.160 I don't what is happening? 00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:30.959 It's not good, it's a bad culture. 00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:38.799 Because one of the things that I was saying, like, is McDaniels putting Drake in situations that don't actually play to his strengths. 00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:50.879 But I I think, listen, I've always called him like he he relies on screenplays too much, but I think he could rely on them more right now because that that's an easy way to get your quarterback feeling good. 00:08:51.200 --> 00:08:55.200 Uh like trust the flat, trust the drag route with the tight end. 00:08:55.279 --> 00:08:57.039 That's all you need to do at this point. 00:08:57.840 --> 00:09:03.360 But my first fucking instinct was to blame him for that end of the half sequence. 00:09:03.519 --> 00:09:10.480 And then all the insiders come out and say, like, no, no, no, we we're hearing that that's not what he and I'm like, well, okay, Mike Rabel. 00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:18.720 I understand that you have an ability to uh to focus on multiple things. 00:09:18.879 --> 00:09:36.240 Clearly, over the last seven years, you have proven that nobody's better than you personally, but professionally, I would not overrule a guy like Josh McDaniels, who has, by the way, is responsible for the resurgence of Brady after Charlie Weiss left. 00:09:36.399 --> 00:09:37.039 Yep. 00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:43.120 Got this team to seven wins with Cam Newton, who couldn't throw a ball more than 15 yards down the field. 00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:46.559 Got Mac Jones in his first year as a pro bowler. 00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:47.200 Pro bowler. 00:09:47.440 --> 00:09:49.919 And got Drake May as a runner-up MVP. 00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:53.039 Maybe we just defer to him for the offensive play calls. 00:09:53.360 --> 00:09:58.799 You know, I always come back to that idea that Bill Parcell has always said, you are what you are. 00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:02.879 And for some reason, if this is what's happening, Frabel is overstepping his bounce. 00:10:02.960 --> 00:10:04.559 He's trying to become something more. 00:10:04.879 --> 00:10:08.639 You have no reason to not trust McDaniels unless there's something that we don't know. 00:10:08.720 --> 00:10:10.799 And obviously, there's probably something we don't know. 00:10:10.960 --> 00:10:16.639 But man, if the rumors are true and he's overriding his offensive coordinator, then just move on. 00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:19.919 Move on, find somebody you trust because this isn't working. 00:10:20.159 --> 00:10:20.480 Right. 00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:22.480 The kid has got time in the pocket. 00:10:22.559 --> 00:10:27.120 You can't be having him roll out every play when he's got an offen an O linebacker on his ass. 00:10:27.360 --> 00:10:28.639 It's not gonna work here. 00:10:29.120 --> 00:10:37.919 And again, I also want to blame the offensive line, but I think that this, I think that this year's offensive line, as bad as it was in Jacksonville, is actually still better than it was last year. 00:10:38.320 --> 00:10:38.399 Right? 00:10:38.480 --> 00:10:42.879 So what well I would agree with you is that I don't know if that's true anymore. 00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:44.480 I did agree with you. 00:10:44.720 --> 00:11:01.759 This often I if if we if we want to go the route that it that the the reason for the the collapse of both his on-the-field stats and his ability to make decisions is because of the offensive line. 00:11:02.000 --> 00:11:06.960 Then we also need to question why is he less decisive than he was last year? 00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:14.559 Is it because last year, no matter what, when shit when shit hit the fan, he knew if play one breaks down, I'm gonna go to Diggs. 00:11:14.639 --> 00:11:16.639 If that's not available, I'm gonna go to Hunter Henry. 00:11:16.799 --> 00:11:20.000 Now he has Romeo drops, I mean Dobbs. 00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:21.360 And then who

else? 00:11:22.879 --> 00:11:23.360 Who else? 00:11:23.840 --> 00:11:25.360 He's got pop, that's it. 00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:29.440 No, Pop Douglas is the greatest. 00:11:29.519 --> 00:11:34.639 Um I've said this so many times this year, I'm I'm uh I'm going to keep fucking saying it, internet. 00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:41.120 Pop Douglas is Chad Ojosinko without the fucking hype. 00:11:41.279 --> 00:11:48.639 He's the greatest practice or training camp player in the history of the New England Patriots. 00:11:49.360 --> 00:11:57.519 But then he's like an artist that has this great idea, but then when he starts drawing, he develops Parkinson's and he can't fucking do it. 00:11:57.759 --> 00:12:08.720 So you have to rely on Pop Douglas when I don't I I'm finding ways to not blame Drake May, but is is it really, is it just Drake May? 00:12:08.960 --> 00:12:11.279 You can't have seven turnovers in three games. 00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:13.679 You just you can't. 00:12:13.840 --> 00:12:15.200 I don't care what the reason is. 00:12:15.279 --> 00:12:18.960 And let's be real here the interception to Hunter. 00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:20.879 I mean, there's no excuse for that. 00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:21.679 What are you doing? 00:12:21.840 --> 00:12:22.000 Right. 00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:31.440 You're throwing off your back foot moving sideways to a guy that and you're throwing it behind him in front of one of the most highly touted quarterbacks or dual players in the league. 00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:32.559 It can't happen. 00:12:32.720 --> 00:12:37.519 Your brain has to know, oh no, this sack here is more valuable than the ball game. 00:12:40.559 --> 00:12:54.240 He looks a lot like Josh Allen did in his first year and a half in the league, where he relied like Josh Allen's in the in his first couple of seasons, his primary goal was to scramble and then find and find a throw that only he can make. 00:12:54.480 --> 00:12:54.879 Right. 00:12:55.279 --> 00:13:06.559 The problem is, is uh he evolved into that because you really from that because you realize that when by doing that, all you're going to be is Lamar Jackson, and Lamar Jackson isn't a good quarterback. 00:13:06.799 --> 00:13:13.360 So he's he he's a stellar athlete, the best athlete I think we've we've seen except for Michael Vick at the quarterback position. 00:13:13.759 --> 00:13:24.240 However, if you if you look at like Mahomes and Allen now, they live and die at the at the back of their uh drop, and they're always on their back foot. 00:13:24.399 --> 00:13:28.159 And they're ready to, and they're just ready to fucking fire, no matter where. 00:13:28.720 --> 00:13:29.759 Drake isn't doing it. 00:13:30.399 --> 00:13:39.679 One of them has Travis Kelsey, who's been ready for that ball for the past seven years, and the other one has Dalton Kincaid, who is just balling out of control. 00:13:39.840 --> 00:13:43.279 Both of them, two of the fastest tight ends to ever play the game. 00:13:43.360 --> 00:13:44.320 I

love Hunter Henry. 00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:45.759 Hunter Henry's good at what he does. 00:13:45.840 --> 00:13:48.799 He's not freestyle, he's not going to sprint across the field for you every time. 00:13:49.039 --> 00:13:51.440 He's gonna run his route sharp and turn quick. 00:13:51.600 --> 00:13:53.519 So we've got a different situation going. 00:13:53.679 --> 00:13:57.440 Oh, and Drake May can't throw off his back foot worth of shit. 00:13:58.639 --> 00:14:01.279 Well, he can do it better than Mac Jones, but I mean, so can I. 00:14:01.360 --> 00:14:15.279 So uh I I think does this all just boil down to the fact that their their offense was realistically, their offseason clearly was, but their entire offense was centered around AJ Brown. 00:14:15.440 --> 00:14:16.559 Yeah, it looks like it. 00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:18.080 It looks at least, you know what? 00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:35.200 I was listening to uh report, I think it was um Daniels that it feels like it feels like at least Drake's confidence was centered around AJ, knowing he had him downfield, which is a lot of what was going on with with um with our boy in Buffalo there with Stefan Diggs for a while. 00:14:35.440 --> 00:14:39.600 It didn't matter because you knew you had a guy that was gonna get to the ball if you had to put it up there in a hurry. 00:14:39.759 --> 00:14:42.720 And without him, man, he's been a shell of what we saw in the priestess. 00:14:43.039 --> 00:14:43.919 A shell. 00:14:45.120 --> 00:14:46.320 Yep, I agree. 00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:54.159 Um so my last question when talking about Drake May, uh we agree that he's broken. 00:14:54.639 --> 00:14:55.200 Right? 00:14:55.679 --> 00:15:00.320 Um now I I don't know anything about about anything. 00:15:00.480 --> 00:15:12.080 However, I just want to I just want to say if it comes out in a couple of weeks that something is going on personally, I want it to be known that I acknowledge that here. 00:15:12.480 --> 00:15:14.080 Yep, I completely agree with you. 00:15:14.639 --> 00:15:31.919 However, anything short of that, how many more perform performances like this before legitimate concern like takes place and and we start talking like Dave is again, he's just saying it because I piss in his cheers about Caleb. 00:15:32.240 --> 00:15:36.000 But is is Drake a bust? 00:15:36.799 --> 00:15:40.240 I okay, so because I don't believe that. 00:15:40.320 --> 00:15:42.879 I don't believe that you go from runner-up MVP to a bust in a season. 00:15:42.960 --> 00:15:44.080 I don't I don't believe that. 00:15:44.480 --> 00:15:49.120 Especially after you lose the Super Bowl, everyone gets a pass for a Super Bowl lost hangover. 00:15:49.200 --> 00:15:49.759 It sucks. 00:15:49.919 --> 00:15:53.440 He put everything he had into that, the whole team came up empty along with him. 00:15:53.679 --> 00:15:55.440 I'm not gonna, I can't do that to him. 00:15:55.519 --> 00:16:02.559 I will say this if we go down by 21 points to the Bills and turn it over, it might be DeVito time for that game. 00:16:02.720 --> 00:16:09.279 And I think that there's a value in that to showing him that this team is we are not the New England Drake Maze. 00:16:09.519 --> 00:16:12.000 If you're not gonna do it, we're gonna go next man up. 00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:14.639 There has to be consequences for your action. 00:16:15.440 --> 00:16:18.960 He might have something going on, but you can't be secure in the fact that you're the starter. 00:16:19.120 --> 00:16:21.039 Anybody can be the starter, it's the NFL. 00:16:21.519 --> 00:16:22.480 You're not gonna get it done. 00:16:22.559 --> 00:16:26.240 We've got two other guys ready to give it a shot, and they kill to give it a shot. 00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:35.279 So I'm willing there he would have to lose the like if he ends up with three wins overall, I'll say fine, he's the bust, you gotta move on from other than that. 00:16:35.360 --> 00:16:43.120 I give him this this year as a pass, as long as we start to see some sort of forward progression, because this is crazy. 00:16:44.559 --> 00:16:53.759 I mean going into this year, he had not had multiple games with the turnover or with with uh with multiple turnovers, right? 00:16:53.840 --> 00:17:07.680 Right, and that's even including the two and ten season that he started uh when uh when Gerard Mayo was the head coach, and he still didn't have uh consecutive, you know, more more than one game in that season when we had multiple turnovers. 00:17:07.759 --> 00:17:10.240 So Gerard Mayo. 00:17:10.880 --> 00:17:16.720 Now we've identified that the line is not as good. 00:17:18.160 --> 00:17:21.119 Well, I I still think it's it might be a little bit better. 00:17:21.200 --> 00:17:23.599 Uh Owen breaking his fucking ankle. 00:17:23.839 --> 00:17:26.960 I mean, that that was horrific to watch. 00:17:27.200 --> 00:17:45.039 Uh so do does Josh just need to simplify the offense, like lean more heavily on run, or do you think that if if if the uh you know out of the first 11 plays, eight of them are runs, and it's three, three and outs, and you the next play is a run. 00:17:45.200 --> 00:17:48.559 Is that Josh telling the world that they don't trust Drake? 00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:56.960 So I'm gonna I'm gonna leave with I don't feel qualified to answer the question fluently, but my instinct would be no. 00:17:57.119 --> 00:18:05.599 My instinct would be it's where anything short of that is you're you're giving up on putting a circular peg in a circular hole here. 00:18:05.839 --> 00:18:07.680 I think it's gonna take some doing. 00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:10.640 Um, I think you have to Trey Anderson's not activated. 00:18:10.720 --> 00:18:12.000 Something's not going on with him. 00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:16.720 We can't have Ramondre try and bang into the back of his defenders every single play. 00:18:16.880 --> 00:18:18.480 Again, I point to the offensive line. 00:18:18.559 --> 00:18:20.960 They're not opening holes, they're not pass

blocking. 00:18:21.039 --> 00:18:22.559 I don't know what the fuck they're doing. 00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:24.480 I want to see plays into the flats. 00:18:24.720 --> 00:18:33.119 I want to see Joshua Daniels do the things that activated Tom Brady when Tom Brady was having a lull in his career in making short dink and dunks. 00:18:33.279 --> 00:18:35.039 Every play, we need three to four yards. 00:18:35.119 --> 00:18:37.920 If we get three to four yards every play, we get a first down. 00:18:38.160 --> 00:18:39.519 That's that's just how it works. 00:18:39.759 --> 00:18:41.440 I don't care how to get that done. 00:18:41.839 --> 00:18:47.599 Move the ball, close the box, open up the flats, just just get the ball moving forward. 00:18:47.759 --> 00:18:50.160 This whole looking for a curl route to the outside, I get it. 00:18:50.240 --> 00:18:52.480 Drake throws a beautiful outside curl ball. 00:18:52.720 --> 00:18:53.599 Stop doing it. 00:18:53.680 --> 00:18:54.640 It's not working right now. 00:18:54.799 --> 00:18:57.519 He doesn't have the time, he doesn't have the confidence in it. 00:18:57.680 --> 00:18:58.480 It's not working. 00:18:58.559 --> 00:19:01.200 I'll I'll take a run any day of the week over that shit. 00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:07.279 Why is Drake not coming out and saying that his arm is fine? 00:19:08.000 --> 00:19:15.839 When every insider and ever everyone has reported that not not one player has noticed that his arm is not fine. 00:19:16.079 --> 00:19:32.559 So I guess I'm only asking you this because I think if I I think that if he's gonna lean into the my shoulder is still fucked up from uh last year and he's gonna try to make an excuse, that doesn't work in Boston. 00:19:32.720 --> 00:19:34.160 That does not work in New England. 00:19:34.319 --> 00:19:35.359 You cannot do that. 00:19:35.519 --> 00:19:47.200 I mean, we're we're literally in the last 25 years, we have seen Tom Brady almost lose a fucking thumb and then play in an AFC title game and beat the Jacksonville Jaguars. 00:19:47.279 --> 00:19:51.920 We have seen Kurt Chilling bleeding through his sock. 00:19:52.079 --> 00:19:59.759 We have seen Paul Pierce almost take his shit up, take a shit on the course or on the court and have to be wheeled back out. 00:19:59.920 --> 00:20:00.160 Right? 00:20:00.400 --> 00:20:06.480 So we are the personification of toughness and in in in every league that we are in. 00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:11.839 I mean, not to mention Sean Thornton or Patrice Third Aberger on playing with a collapsed fucking lung. 00:20:12.079 --> 00:20:12.319 Yep. 00:20:12.559 --> 00:20:14.559 So for him to put out there. 00:20:15.200 --> 00:20:18.799 Yeah, you know, my shoulder, you know, it's it's it is what it is. 00:20:19.119 --> 00:20:19.920 What do you mean? 00:20:20.400 --> 00:20:29.359 Because the entire because the entire reason that that they fucking drafted you was not for your footwork, because our old head coach basically shit on you at the draft saying that you didn't have any. 00:20:29.440 --> 00:20:30.960 It was because of your arm talent. 00:20:31.119 --> 00:20:39.119 So, Matt, I need you to tell me why he isn't just saying, my arm is fine, my shoulder is fine, I am just fucking up. 00:20:39.440 --> 00:20:42.319 I have to imagine, you know, this is a this is a money game. 00:20:42.400 --> 00:20:43.680 You know, this is a career for him. 00:20:43.839 --> 00:20:46.400 It's not a career for him, it's an opportunity for him to make money. 00:20:46.559 --> 00:20:48.799 He has to already be looking towards a contract here. 00:20:49.279 --> 00:20:54.400 I don't think he wants to label himself as somebody with a bad shoulder, because when that happens, well, now you're a career backup. 00:20:54.480 --> 00:20:55.359 Congratulations. 00:20:55.519 --> 00:20:57.680 Um, I would imagine it has to do with his agent. 00:20:57.759 --> 00:21:01.599 I would imagine it has to do with his managing team telling him, yeah, don't say that. 00:21:01.680 --> 00:21:02.559 Don't allude to that. 00:21:02.720 --> 00:21:06.720 We we already know you don't need surgery, we know it's as good as it's gonna get for the time being. 00:21:06.880 --> 00:21:07.680 Something on that nature. 00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:09.279 Okay, right there, right there, right there. 00:21:09.359 --> 00:21:09.759 Why? 00:21:09.920 --> 00:21:11.279 As good as it's gonna get. 00:21:11.440 --> 00:21:12.000 What do you mean? 00:21:13.359 --> 00:21:17.200 What did you do in the offseason to not make it as good as it ever will be again? 00:21:17.440 --> 00:21:19.119 Other than put on muscle, which he did. 00:21:19.200 --> 00:21:20.160 I don't I don't know what he did. 00:21:20.240 --> 00:21:24.079 I don't know what he did to re-so you and I agree that his shoulder's fine. 00:21:24.240 --> 00:21:25.279 I think his shoulder's fine. 00:21:25.359 --> 00:21:30.880 He's not showing a lack of velocity on the ball, he's showing a lack of smart placement and smart decision making. 00:21:31.039 --> 00:21:36.400 That ball he threw, that pick he threw, was a beautiful ball to the other team, but it was beautiful. 00:21:37.759 --> 00:21:44.400 Uh Drake said that there was blood on the ball uh that that led him to the fumble. 00:21:44.480 --> 00:21:52.000 I'm just here to let you know that unless it was passion of the Christ level blood, there is no amount of excuses. 00:21:52.319 --> 00:21:55.519 Just say again, it was listen, I fucked up. 00:21:55.680 --> 00:21:56.160 You know? 00:21:56.319 --> 00:21:59.759 I'm listening, and I how I would approach this if I was his PR agent is. 00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:03.440 Listen, you've seen me at my best. 00:22:04.000 --> 00:22:06.720 You're gonna see me at my worst sometimes. 00:22:06.960 --> 00:22:14.319 Unfortunately, right now, you're seeing me at my worst in a time that you all thought that we should be an AFC title, you know, title game contender. 00:22:14.480 --> 00:22:17.680 We can still be that, but I have to play better

and I will play better. 00:22:17.839 --> 00:22:23.279 But I assure you, there is not a single throw on this fucking field that I can't make. 00:22:23.440 --> 00:22:24.559 Why not just say that? 00:22:24.880 --> 00:22:28.559 You know, I remember a plucky young kid. 00:22:28.799 --> 00:22:30.880 He came in for Drew Bletso when he was hurt. 00:22:31.039 --> 00:22:37.920 I remember him playing a game against the Raiders in the playoffs, and I think there was like four feet of snow. 00:22:38.720 --> 00:22:42.000 I don't remember him complaining about the ball being wet or cold. 00:22:42.079 --> 00:22:42.559 It's just weird. 00:22:43.279 --> 00:22:44.559 There was not four feet of snow. 00:22:45.920 --> 00:22:47.440 My memory's my memory, all right? 00:22:47.680 --> 00:22:49.759 I think that's that's your truth. 00:22:49.839 --> 00:22:50.079 You're right. 00:22:50.400 --> 00:22:51.279 That's my truth. 00:22:51.440 --> 00:22:53.359 Um, I don't give a fuck if there's blood in the ball. 00:22:53.440 --> 00:22:53.839 Shut the fuck. 00:22:55.039 --> 00:22:55.680 Give me a corner. 00:22:55.920 --> 00:22:59.039 You got a rag on the on the center's ass, you got you got a ref behind you? 00:22:59.200 --> 00:23:00.880 Give him the ball, he'll replace you. 00:23:01.039 --> 00:23:01.839 Shut the fuck up. 00:23:02.079 --> 00:23:03.359 You threw it. 00:23:04.480 --> 00:23:07.359 Just you know, call the little call the fucking hawk tour girl. 00:23:07.440 --> 00:23:09.839 Get her to make sure that that ball goes fine. 00:23:10.079 --> 00:23:11.200 Here's my last question. 00:23:11.279 --> 00:23:13.759 Uh, and then we look then we look ahead. 00:23:14.160 --> 00:23:17.599 What what the fuck happened to the defense that dominated the Steelers? 00:23:17.920 --> 00:23:20.160 What was Carlton Davis doing? 00:23:20.400 --> 00:23:27.920 What there were times where I was like, damn, he's on his gay game today, and then immediately the next play be like, he committed a face mask and a hold? 00:23:28.000 --> 00:23:28.799 What are you talking about? 00:23:28.960 --> 00:23:30.880 It's unfucking believable, man. 00:23:31.119 --> 00:23:32.000 I would have pulled him. 00:23:32.079 --> 00:23:36.079 I would have put him, I would have put him in the back of the cover for him last week because it was ridiculous. 00:23:36.400 --> 00:23:39.440 He was all over the field getting fucking blown out. 00:23:43.839 --> 00:23:45.200 Are you gonna be alright, dude? 00:23:45.519 --> 00:23:45.839 No. 00:23:46.720 --> 00:23:47.039 No. 00:23:47.759 --> 00:23:50.160 I'm gonna start watching women's tennis. 00:23:50.559 --> 00:23:54.240 I asked you earlier, is Coco Golf a thing, or is that like a type of surf? 00:23:54.640 --> 00:23:56.880 I don't know, but it doesn't sound like we can say that on the air. 00:23:56.960 --> 00:24:07.119 So I guess my question would be uh if the if the Patriots struggle in Buffalo, who whose fault is it the most? 00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:10.559 Vrabel, McDaniels, or May? 00:24:10.880 --> 00:24:18.880 Dude, I hate I hate the people that blame coaches off the rip, but if there is any truth, it's gotta be the coach then. 00:24:20.319 --> 00:24:22.400 That being said, it's gotta be the coach. 00:24:22.640 --> 00:24:33.119 If Vrabel is pulling plays away from McDaniels already in in the first quarter of game three, it's fucking Vrabel, and there's not a debate about it. 00:24:33.200 --> 00:24:34.720 It's that's crazy. 00:24:34.960 --> 00:24:40.160 It's Josh McDaniels, it's not some kid you just took out of UTEP, it's Josh McDaniels, okay? 00:24:40.319 --> 00:24:44.079 The worst head coach and greatest offensive coordinator, maybe in the history of the game. 00:24:44.160 --> 00:24:45.359 So don't touch him. 00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:47.119 Let him go, let him cook a little. 00:24:47.599 --> 00:24:49.200 Yeah, you're coming off a wig. 00:24:49.359 --> 00:24:51.839 Don't tell me, don't tell me you're not gonna let McDaniels cook. 00:24:51.920 --> 00:24:53.119 He's gotta cook a little bit. 00:24:53.440 --> 00:24:53.839 Right. 00:24:54.000 --> 00:24:54.240 Right. 00:24:54.720 --> 00:24:56.160 It's it's not checkers, it's chess. 00:24:56.319 --> 00:24:57.920 It you build to something. 00:24:58.400 --> 00:25:06.480 How much longer, or how many more losses do you think it takes before the media starts bringing up Rossini again? 00:25:06.799 --> 00:25:08.880 Oh, we gotta be right around the corner. 00:25:08.960 --> 00:25:10.240 But we gotta be right there. 00:25:10.640 --> 00:25:15.519 Rossini, she's about it, he would, but um, yeah, no, they're gonna get bad. 00:25:15.920 --> 00:25:19.119 Also, uh, Dits, yes, of course. 00:25:19.440 --> 00:25:19.839 Yeah. 00:25:20.160 --> 00:25:20.559 The best. 00:25:20.640 --> 00:25:21.279 Oh, she's the best. 00:25:21.359 --> 00:25:22.240 What a cutie pie. 00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:31.680 Um, no, but you're gonna let the news media, you're gonna let the talking heads of the world get bored of you and start start disrespecting you. 00:25:31.839 --> 00:25:33.680 That's immediately where they're gonna go. 00:25:33.920 --> 00:25:35.119 There's nothing to be about. 00:25:36.960 --> 00:25:38.400 Sunday, 1 p.m. 00:25:38.720 --> 00:25:43.039 The New England Patriots uh make the trek up to the new high mark stadium at Buffalo. 00:25:43.279 --> 00:25:44.160 Patriots are one and two. 00:25:44.319 --> 00:25:45.599 The Buffalo Bills are three-no. 00:25:45.839 --> 00:25:49.599 I'm just gonna uh give you the matchup by the numbers through week three. 00:25:49.839 --> 00:25:52.319 The Patriots are scoring 12 points a game. 00:25:52.640 --> 00:25:54.880 The Bills are scoring almost 34. 00:25:55.200 --> 00:25:58.079 The Patriots total yards per game is 307. 00:25:58.720 --> 00:26:00.559 Bills 401. 00:26:01.279 --> 00:26:02.799 Turnover differential. 00:26:03.119 --> 00:26:06.480 Patriots minus minus five, Bills minus two. 00:26:06.799 --> 00:26:10.240 The Patriots opened this game right now at seven-point uh

underdogs. 00:26:10.400 --> 00:26:13.759 Now, again, we are the defending AFC champion. 00:26:13.839 --> 00:26:16.960 We went up to Buffalo and beat them in Buffalo last year. 00:26:17.119 --> 00:26:23.680 Uh the Buffalo, you know, the Bills entered the game after beating the Chargers, which again shitbags in week three, 24-16. 00:26:23.920 --> 00:26:31.039 The Bills lead the league in scoring through three games, but their defense has also allowed 361 yards per game. 00:26:31.759 --> 00:26:37.599 Can the Patriots establish the run and keep Josh Allen off the field? 00:26:37.920 --> 00:26:49.599 You know, historically, from just an eye test of this team, this is the exact kind of game that they come out and they turn into their game for some reason and they make it a bad fight, right? 00:26:49.680 --> 00:26:50.000 Isn't it? 00:26:50.079 --> 00:26:52.559 It just especially turning off a horrible loss. 00:26:52.799 --> 00:26:59.039 I feel it in my bones that they're gonna show us something here, and they're gonna get everyone talking about how, oh, you know, we were really hard on them. 00:26:59.119 --> 00:27:01.519 I just I have this funny feeling that yes, they can. 00:27:02.319 --> 00:27:18.400 On the same level, I think that they could come out here and get 43 to nothing real fast because this Bills team is lined up to put a whooping on a team that can't figure out how to open a line hole and can't figure out how to get to the quarterback or get him uncomfortable. 00:27:18.640 --> 00:27:19.119 Yep. 00:27:19.279 --> 00:27:20.880 I think you go either way right now. 00:27:20.960 --> 00:27:25.200 I really do think we could win a dogfight here, win a 13-3 game, 13 to 10 game. 00:27:25.359 --> 00:27:27.920 I also think we could lose 40 to nothing. 00:27:28.559 --> 00:27:30.079 Yeah, I'm right there with you. 00:27:30.240 --> 00:27:36.480 I I think if the Patriots win this game, it's something like 28-26, 28-24. 00:27:36.880 --> 00:27:42.319 But if we lose this game, we're losing 42 to 11, you know, like or 42 to 10. 00:27:42.400 --> 00:27:45.200 Like that's those are the only two options, in my opinion. 00:27:45.440 --> 00:27:54.799 Um, you know, the Patriots beat Buffalo 23-20 on the road last October, and then they lost at at uh at Gillette uh 35-31. 00:27:54.960 --> 00:27:58.400 They've split the season uh series the last three years. 00:27:58.640 --> 00:27:59.680 So, like this. 00:28:00.799 --> 00:28:05.440 I just want to let everybody out there know that's listening to this, that's watching this, and that will watch this. 00:28:06.799 --> 00:28:08.160 I'm upset with them. 00:28:08.559 --> 00:28:10.880 I think something's really wrong with the quarterback. 00:28:11.119 --> 00:28:16.160 I think that they're fundamentally a different team than they were last year so far. 00:28:16.480 --> 00:28:22.480 However, I think them to lose six or seven games this year. 00:28:24.480 --> 00:28:25.680 They've lost two. 00:28:26.319 --> 00:28:32.559 They've l and one of them again, we had them all losing week one. 00:28:33.119 --> 00:28:35.599 Now, Drew Locke, that changes things. 00:28:35.680 --> 00:28:36.640 It should have changed things. 00:28:36.720 --> 00:28:44.960 However, if you can get out of September two and two, you know, out of the first four weeks, I'm fine with that. 00:28:45.119 --> 00:28:45.680 I'm fine with that. 00:28:46.400 --> 00:28:48.000 That's exactly what you thought they were gonna be. 00:28:48.480 --> 00:28:49.039 I'm fine with that. 00:28:49.440 --> 00:28:52.640 We hadn't losing week one and this game, but we both did. 00:28:52.960 --> 00:29:07.359 So you know, however, it but there is something about the way you lose a game, you know, and you you could we could lose a blowout and Drake not turned the ball over three times. 00:29:07.599 --> 00:29:10.880 I know, and you'd be and you'd be like, fine, you know what? 00:29:11.039 --> 00:29:14.880 We just got our asses kicked, it's completely fine. 00:29:15.519 --> 00:29:17.359 That just isn't what happened. 00:29:17.599 --> 00:29:20.720 No, nope, we lost the ball, uh, we lost the game. 00:29:20.880 --> 00:29:24.160 Drake turned the ball over three times, but he didn't look good at all. 00:29:25.119 --> 00:29:26.400 He did not look good at all. 00:29:26.720 --> 00:29:35.039 The end of that sequence where where Parker for them had that unbelievable catch that got called back for holding, and then immediately spit back in our eye. 00:29:35.279 --> 00:29:39.839 Oh, bro, there's a fun, there's something fundamentally wrong with your team. 00:29:40.160 --> 00:29:43.119 That you had the chance to stand up again and be like, you know what? 00:29:43.200 --> 00:29:44.400 No, no, no, that was bad. 00:29:44.480 --> 00:29:45.920 Watch this, we're gonna get it this time. 00:29:46.000 --> 00:29:48.559 And then you literally showed them ball don't lie. 00:29:49.519 --> 00:29:59.359 So do you think Gonzo can like what does Gonzo need to do and the secondary to limit Buffalo and their explos and their explosive plays? 00:29:59.519 --> 00:30:04.799 Is that more what they need to do on the field, or does Rabel need to figure out a way to contain them? 00:30:05.039 --> 00:30:06.720 I'm glad you asked this because I was thinking about it. 00:30:06.799 --> 00:30:13.200 If we could get him over to Boston Dynamics and clone him and get one or two of him, like another one on the field, that would be helpful. 00:30:13.359 --> 00:30:22.559 Um scrap, but no, he needs he needs Marcus Jones to not have to sit in the slot, and he needs Carlton Davis or whoever's gonna be on the other one. 00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:26.319 Like, if you're gonna run five defenders, we need three to be able to cover players. 00:30:26.400 --> 00:30:30.720 We can't gonzo can't be all over the field, he can't just lock up every person. 00:30:30.880 --> 00:30:32.079 So what the fuck? 00:30:32.160 --> 00:30:36.319 I need my safeties to step up, I need buyers to step up and to help on the

support. 00:30:36.480 --> 00:30:37.839 I don't know what we're doing here. 00:30:38.000 --> 00:30:43.039 And by the way, I know we're injured, I know we had some issues through the linebacker core, the box looked horrible. 00:30:43.200 --> 00:30:47.359 That opened up the outsides for him because we had to stack for the one that ate us alive. 00:30:47.519 --> 00:30:50.880 Um, the whole defense needs to do their fucking jobs. 00:30:51.039 --> 00:30:52.240 You have a job on the field. 00:30:52.400 --> 00:30:56.079 If you do your job, the other guy doesn't have to worry about covering your ass. 00:30:56.319 --> 00:30:56.960 Yep. 00:30:57.200 --> 00:31:01.440 Now, I know that you listened to uh my conversation with Karen Garigan. 00:31:01.920 --> 00:31:06.960 The three things that she said on that show were some shout-out. 00:31:07.119 --> 00:31:08.240 What a genius. 00:31:09.359 --> 00:31:10.000 She's perfect. 00:31:10.640 --> 00:31:15.359 She's perfect in every way, which is why we love her, and which is why she always comes back. 00:31:15.519 --> 00:31:18.880 Um, number one, they have 24 great players. 00:31:19.039 --> 00:31:20.799 If one of them goes down, they're fucked. 00:31:20.880 --> 00:31:21.839 No, okay, great. 00:31:21.920 --> 00:31:24.720 We've AJ Brown, they went out. 00:31:25.119 --> 00:31:31.680 Their biggest liability on defense pass rush, run stopping. 00:31:32.480 --> 00:31:36.799 Oh, what have we seen over the last couple of weeks? 00:31:37.359 --> 00:31:42.799 The third thing that needs to happen to make sure that they that the Patriots uh continue to, you know, they're winning ways. 00:31:43.119 --> 00:31:47.200 Drake May needs to show a mastery of Josh McDano's offense. 00:31:47.759 --> 00:31:48.480 He's not. 00:31:51.920 --> 00:31:53.599 Is it Josh McDano's offense? 00:31:53.680 --> 00:31:55.359 Is that what we're even watching right now? 00:31:55.839 --> 00:31:59.839 Yeah, can it be your offense if if in the red zone you're overruled? 00:32:00.240 --> 00:32:00.640 Nope. 00:32:01.119 --> 00:32:01.599 Nope. 00:32:01.759 --> 00:32:03.599 Because it's it's fucking chess. 00:32:03.680 --> 00:32:05.519 It takes build-up, it takes timing. 00:32:05.599 --> 00:32:13.440 It takes if we're gonna play a game where we're shortening the field and to where we have a red zone strike and then you're taking play calls away from him, that's not his gameplay. 00:32:13.680 --> 00:32:15.359 That's you riding him all the way to the end. 00:32:15.440 --> 00:32:20.160 It's like if you're playing Madden and you sim until you're in the red zone, then you take over and fuck up what your team just did. 00:32:20.240 --> 00:32:21.839 It doesn't make any sense. 00:32:22.720 --> 00:32:24.240 That's a great fucking analogy. 00:32:24.880 --> 00:32:42.319 Um do the Patriots need to beat Buffalo to restore confidence, or would a competitive turnover-free game, even if it's a loss from May, be meaningful to you? 00:32:42.559 --> 00:32:42.880 Nope. 00:32:42.960 -->
