"Think on a neutral field. Gimme georgia mike. Good to talk to you. We'll be talking to you during the season. thank you very much for. That's mike renner. Football focus lead draft analyst. I will say that. Mike does make me feel better about my questions when i go. Who's you're upset special this weekend. Like he gives a great thought. I appreciate that by the way as strange. This is gonna sound of all the games this weekend. And you got penn state wisconsin. You got alabama miami indiana iowa georgia clemson. Ohio state plays minnesota thursday night. I'm interested in louisiana versus texas. Good call. I'm really interested in louisiana. Not not lsu. Lsu's got ucla but louisiana against taxes because the clock starts ticking. For on steve sarkisian. He's got a three year window here at texas. Louisiana is a top twenty five team. Yeah paulie you're cages are getting eight points from texas right entertainment purposes. Only money line. And it's tricky when you're trying to handicap these quarterbacks because of all those quarterbacks that we mentioned there will probably be another quarterback that comes out of nowhere and you'll go wait. Where did he come from. How long's he been a starter. Because if you said to me. Zach wilson at the beginning of the year year ago. He's gonna go number two overall now. I go okay and see enough -nough consistency. I knew he was highly thought of but then all of a sudden you know. We don't even know if he's going to start or not at. Byu club to eleven touchdowns nine picks as a sophomore. I don't believe he was. How could he be on anyone's radar with those numbers. I don't i don't know might. He was on our radar like well. I think you have to say that. Yeah we knew about him. Yeah it's like ben. Volen covers the patriots for the boston globe. And he said what ninety nine percent of us probably thought but didn't say or wooden say and that is i thought that cam newton was gonna be the started. He covers the patriot. So when all these analyst go yet but i could see this one coming. No no no you didn't or you would have said tom. Curren came out and he said here this a no brainer. He should be. Don't be surprised. But he didn't know and nobody knew cam. Newton was going to be released. But when when you say yeah that guy. He was on radar mack. Mac jones was on your radar. Yeah paul i'm hearing. That mclovin has a college quarterback crush a guy who thinks a nobody who will be somebody in four-mile teams hearing rumblings. I actually yeah. I would have bet. Paulie quarterback. I will give him. Pf fs number two quarterback. Sam how how about we take a break. Okay right yes take a break. We find out what's at stake because we just don't make bets on this show. There's always there's always repercussions injury embarrassment humiliation or pie to the face. We'll take a break mclellan's big bet coming up next. Thanks for listening to the dan.

"Helped by john. Red eye monster ready to crush five fly in the megastar and now all you need to do now is isolate. The grave digger vocal there. And there you go. There's the drop we talked about from earlier this week. All right good all right. let's get into it. Oh that's tricky. bill belichick He makes a move. Nobody saw coming releasing the patriots released cam newton their quarterback the starter that they resigned in the off season then they drafted mack. Jones of course in the first round and the two players are trading team and going through the whole process through the summer but at the end of the day. Bill bell jack decides. The future is now mack. Jones will begin the season as the starter. Qb one and cam. Newton almost unbelievably only a handful of years removed from being. Mvp in the league in one of the great dual threat quarterbacks. The league's ever seen on the eve of week. One in twenty twenty one. He is out of work. Greg when you saw this pop up on your phone or wherever Were you shocked. Take me through it as a pats fan. I mean i had mixed feelings. I was surprised. He's not on the team. I am not i. Wasn't that surprised that matt jones is the starter. 'cause i've been believing in tom. Curren who watched them every day and thought it was decisive in practice. And i watch the preseason. It's you know. It's one of the best rookie quarterback breezy i've ever. Pf has it has the best rookie quarterback. They've ever graded so that part of it. We're mack jones wins. The job doesn't shock me. But the fact that brian heuer's one snap away does a little bit fried hoyer still in that building. Isn't he like fifty years old at this point like honestly listen. Shook another nice bald guy. Out of cleveland but come on. Can we calm down a little bit. Yeah i was going to say that's a front to to baltimore and especially northeast. Ohio natives who are bald but go ahead and i think i think it does fit though. Don't you think greg like if you have to go from mack jones to somebody else. Wouldn't you prefer to go to the scaling not to do with it. I think i'm guessing we're taping this so soon after my guesses either mutual or that cam newton gave the you know hey. Do you want us to cut you now. In that cam newton would rather go back up dak prescott maybe russell wilson but i kind of expect cam newton to be on the cowboys because it just makes too much sense for everyone then he really wants to go back up a rookie quarterback and that bell check also might have the feeling that i've been gassing this guy up as one of the great leader's i've ever been around. He's got a lot of people who love him on this team. That i don't think cam newton is going to be a problem but that it's it's almost a mixed message here if this guy is our backup and he has so many people who who kind of follow him. Let's make let's make a clean break of it and by the way you know he's not vaccinated so all right now let's hit that. I was gonna hit that a little later but since you brought it up bill. Belichick is a man as we know who he's material. He's someone who doesn't buy into excuses. He's a man who will send you home if you're late for a practice during a blizzard outside. He's done it. That's this type of that. Bill does do you think that all can we connect the dots here. That in the middle of this heated battle for the job cam disappears with the excused absence tied to the krona virus. Mix up that bill check. Could've said you know what that's the straw that breaks the camel's back a move and on i don't put a pass them just going to say it. I mean they've run into the situation a year ago. They had to go to brian. Hoyer in key early game the kind of started a slide. Why would they put themselves in a position where they could potentially deal with that again. Is the backup in. that proposed. Scenario cam is your starter in the back of his magazi- better than brian hoyer. Yeah but ultimately. You're still facing the possibility of losing one or multiple quarterbacks regular season. Why run through that exercise again for me once. Shame on me you know so on. And so forth so yeah. I think that has undoubtedly hassle me to do with it. Even if you could say well everything else. They just said which i totally agree with. It's got to play tomorrow about jones's play like that. The starting point like they. It wouldn't happen in les. Jones didn't exceed. Some expectations didn't play. Great and camp didn't play great in the preseason but yeah i think it's absolutely possible dan that that was kind of the thing that put it over the top because it also gave jones a number of snaps in those joint practices which belshazzar takes very seriously always says that's as important or more important than the preseason game. Everyone said that mack jones had the best day of his entire training camp against the giants in that second day of the or the first day of their joint practices that he just lit it up. And then you look at like the way they were playing time in in in the games like mack jones played a lot. Didn't play a lot with the starters. But he played a lot and they got to look at him a lot. And if it's that close. And if mack jones was better in practice for the most part i it does it does make sense that the part just as a fan that that bugs me is. You had one of the best backup quarterbacks in the league whether it was mack jones or your cam newton and now you have one of the worst. So i've heard some buzz that's like well. They're actually higher on jarrett stidham than they used to be and he's going to recover from the back he's i think he's going to. I are either short term are or pup. We haven't heard yet because he he's coming off a back surgery but that he'll be back at some point and he'll be the backup but i don't know the patriots are better with cam newton and mack jones and the roster that everybody can agree with that. So there's more to it. And it..

Tom curren the patriots insider who was with us earlier in the show prior to the announcement that cam was cut and tom current will join us coming up here momentarily boy. They're all in on mack. Jones down and the question is is cam newton. Get another job. I didn't think cam would be fine with being a backup quarterback and i think that that's what a lot of teams looked at if they were gonna bring in cam newton. It'd be nice to him as a backup quarterback but cam still feels like he can play an even now. Does washington pick him up. Would you rather have cam. Newton or ryan fitzpatrick in there. Could he go to the colts. Fbi backup quarterback. I don't i just don't see him. Being a backup quarterback could he go to baltimore and he may not have a choice but in his mind will will. He accept that. How much does he want to be on a roster. I'd be curious about that. With cam. Newton but i thought cam was gonna start for the patriots. I couldn't imagine it bill. Belichick was gonna start the season with a rookie quarterback but if you i mean once again whenever find this out but if you said bella check. Do you want to beat tom. Brady with cam.

Four and he would love that eight seven seven three. Dp show email address teepee. Dan patrick dot com twitter handle at dp show. We will check in with the new orleans saints who were in dallas now because of hurricane ida and i don't know if that season opener against the packers is in jeopardy in new orleans and what might be planned to bring in. Tom curran Nbc sports boston patriots outsider. Apparently you were an insider a couple of hours ago but cam gets released. What happened here. Like i told you that matt jones was going to be the starter. What do you mean outsider. Yeah but did you know that cam would be released. I didn't know how things would come to pass. But i mean i'm telling you out here that that the i mean i'm telling you i mean i'm jay dan i'm on it. I said mack jones is going to be the started now. Whatever kim's reaction was to that consume the probably wasn't that positive because he is now longer new england patriots. But i think it's a an interesting development to me. And i don't know which is more interesting the fact that they let him go or he asked to be what. We're the fact that they've gone with a rookie quarterback probably the latter. Yeah i never thought. Bill would go with a rookie quarterback just didn't but i mean the he he obviously loves what he sees. But i'm guessing cam being familiar with his ego. He's probably going. You're not cutting me. You know i'm going to ask for my release. Sure i narrow which semantics here but can he. I don't even know if somebody's going to be interested in cam because he didn't have any offers until the patriots scooped ema. Yeah and i mean. Here's the thing he's he's an unvaccinated player who is not an accurate thrower who plays a unique style a quarterback that needs to certain set of factors in place to make him his most successful. So i think it could be a little bit of time before he hooks on with somebody. You know as i said you know. Wanna call him yesterday and today don't be so the camps going to be the starter because when you look at mac jones's workload compared to camps. They were not preparing cam. Newton to start season he had drives against the giants in two drives against the eagles. Miss five days last week. There's been very few days if anyone. He's out played mack jones so the only reason that people were clinging to the idea the cam would start was the fact that he was starting preseason games. But that's largely symbolic to well. I also think and you bring up some great points here. That i don't know if those five days that he missed and mack jones was taken all the reps with the number ones there what he was doing in games like he never felt like he was overwhelmed in with any of this. But do you think not. Being vaccinated played any role in in cam. Newton being released by the patriots the patriots want their players to be vaccinated period. And i think that last week's occurrence even on a minor technicality. Not a close contact. Not a positive test. None of that missing attest amplified for them. The tenuousness of his availability. Certainly that has to way into it whether that's number five number. Three number nine absolutely every single player is going to be evaluated on backs nation status. He's tom current patriots. 'insider who told us a couple of days ago that mack jones should be the starter and now you got your wish. I didn't care dan. I'm just trying to chronicle team. You know all right. I mean what's your what's your first question for bella. Check when you say. Hey you say.

"Than i thought but also being the right quarterback for the right system justin fields. You know wouldn't have been the right quarterback probably for this system in the same way cam as yeah and that's why it's square peg round hole. How long are we going to carry this out. Which is what's fascinating right now. Because you know they they have to make a decision on it where. Kim goes mentally if he's told look you're not the starter is a fascinating part of this too because i think the patriots value him and want him around also local sentiment on patriot. Fans this is your homegrown player. Cameras a rental plus. Hey we can get back to where we were because now we've got a young. Tom brady clone. Would that fair assessment completely. And who's only going to get better. So if your argument is all right well matched jones's to raw and my buddy phil perry. Who's on the beat. With me at nbc. Sports boston continually points out that. When you have a rookie quarterback who can play. It's the most economically advantageous position. You can be in because in four years. You're going to be giving them kind of contract. If he's good. That mahomes or josh allen or dak prescott ends up garnering but right now you want to maximize the amount of time that players on the field because it's actually a win for you against the salary cap. So get him started so that to me is an interesting aspect of this too. When does bella check. Make the Long-anticipated announcement. I hope it's saturday. Because i have a bet with. Michael felber up here that He won't announce it before the end of business on friday Felber thinks it'll be by friday into business and i have to buy a plot to kill. He has to buy me a sixty degree. Lob wedge if it comes up my way but you think this is a news dump. That bella is gonna go. Let's do this hit around five. Oh five on one hundred percent Yeah i i would imagine. He doesn't want to have us running around the zoom conferences calls. Because we're not in the locker room. Say what do you think how would you feel bad for him. But what about that camden a lot. Obviously this fishing and i could see him. You know at once you get to september fifth next monday. It's prep week for the miami. Dolphins were already made that decision. What's what's the one question you just. You can topic you. Just can't ask bella. Check about malcolm butler might be retiring. Can you bring that up to bill of malcolm. Butler retires by saying coach. Now that malcolm's retired can you expound upon what happened in the super bowl certainly fair. You know what else we honestly dan. We haven't asked it dawned on me yesterday. We have to ask. What's your reaction to tom. Brady winning the super bowl. Wait nauseam anasta. why we just. I guess the train left the station. We forgot left that piece of luggage on the on the platform that that's it. Are you even ask. Are you afraid now. Now that i thought of it no but this has to be the right time. I can't spit it out when he's talking about cuts okay. I'm going to be ballot check. Let's practice this and you you're going to ask me okay bill. I don't know if you noticed. But back in february one of your former player. Tom brady was able to secure a super bowl way now. That's a player that you kind of push toward the door for about three years and Seemingly felt as if he wasn't able to perform he wanted to stay here bill you he would have preferred to stay here. But now that he's gone and through forty touchdown four thousand six hundred thirty three yards in won another super bowl. Do you feel like you're in a situation where you want him back. No that's not the way to do it. No that just answer is no and there is no more adept. There's no more adept interviewer in american journalism than you. What would how would you ask. How would you broach the topic. Did how much did the super bowl did you watch. Coach going on barbados. What was your reaction when you found out. Tom won the super bowl. That's the first time. I'm hearing of it right now. I can shut you down no matter what your question but like you were building it up and you got cute. Don't know if you noticed. One of your former i wouldn't do. Yeah yeah so you just go see if he wants to talk about. What was your reaction to tom. Gronk put gronk in there too. Just because then it doesn't become you and you against brady put gronk in there. And then maybe he gives you a little bit and it just depends on if he wants to give you something or not. You know how it is where you go at. Honestly the best mode of attack would be bill as we continue to watch the quarterback situation unfold. Here do you ever look. In retrospect say maybe would have been a good idea to to keep. Tom brady given his accomplishments in tampa bay. No see you're giving him the opportunity to say no. How stupid was it from from one to ten now because you can't even say one to ten coach l. Stupid wasn't on scale one to ten that you guys didn't think tom had anything left in the tech. We done y- yeah. That's because would have my coffee. Do donkeys are starbucks. But you live in massachusetts you guys. You know dunkin donuts but did the app so you get ready. Yeah yeah dry. Really saps drive out onto the street in my neighborhood. What's out onto the street. Dissident in the drive through well. Sometimes if i see there's a long line then i just walk in say hello to people. I'm a man of the people. Wait a minute but you don't use the apt word of your. Yeah in okay. yeah so. it's it's ready for me. Whether i go through the drive through or i walk in to the store we had the drive through here is there's never less than seven cars in it and i'm i'm a two car drive through guy seats. Yeah i'm there with you. But you know sometimes i wanna make somebody's day and then go into starbucks and say hello to people here comes that guy who thinks he's the mayor here in again. Do you realize that. I had to go through four months where i had purified water and steam vegetables when i had my health issues so i couldn't go to starbucks but i would drive through the starbucks drive through and i didn't order. I just drove through and i said a load of the people and then i would drive up to the window and i would just wave. I didn't pick up anything. That's pretty sad. It is and you know that the baristas would just go weirdest guy ever. That is the way we have the weirdest guy ever at town. Yeah i actually would disguise my voice and then my daughter said dad. There's a camera. They can see you. But i would go up there and say yes. I would like to have like gilbert godfrey. I like to have you know. And then they go. Okay dan and then i go. Oh okay and then the next time. I'd try to disguise my voice again. I'm back on the starbucks train. Just let you know. I can tell. Yeah i must be so. They must be yes they are. They are good luck today and we wait for the tom. Brady question for bill check. I'll let you know what i'm gonna unveil fritzy. No all right. Thanks that's tom curren.

But i mean i'm telling you out here that the i mean i'm telling you i mean i'm dan audit. I said mack jones is going to be the star now.

You're not cutting me. You know i'm gonna ask for my release sure i narrow it semantics here but can he. I don't even know if somebody's going to be interested in cam because he didn't have any offers until the patriots scoop duma. Yeah and i mean. Here's the thing he's he's an unvaccinated player who is not an accurate thrower who plays a unique style a quarterback that needs to certain set of factors in place to make him his most successful. So i think it could be a little bit of time before he hooks on with somebody. You know as i said you know in a column yesterday and today you don't be so sure the camps going to be the starter because when you look at mac jones's workload compared to camps. They were not preparing cam newton to start season. He had two drives against the giants in two drives against the eagles. Miss five days last week. there's been very few days if any when he's outplayed mack jones so the only reason that people are clinging to the idea that cam would start was the fact that he was starting preseason games. But that's largely symbolic to me. Well i also think it and you bring up some great points here that i don't know if those five days that he missed and mack jones was taken all the reps with the number ones there what he was doing in games. He never felt like he was overwhelmed. In with any of this but you think not being vaccinated played any role in in cam. Newton being released by the patriots. I know the patriots want their players to be vaccinated period. And i think that last week's occurrence even on a minor technicality. Not a close contact. Not a positive test. None of that missing attest amplified for them. The tenuousness of his availability. So certainly that has to weigh into it. Whether that's number five number. Three number nine absolutely every single player is going to be evaluated on back nation status. He's tom current patriots insider. Who told us a couple of days ago that mack jones should be the starter. And now you got your wish. I didn't care dan. I'm just trying to chronicle the team. You know okay. I mean what's your what's your first question for bella. Check when you harry excited i am. This is what i wanted to know. Logic to appearances one show. I think the vaccination status is not a horrible question because it. It absolutely is a factor. Absolutely i don't i good luck asking the question. It should be mack jones vaccinated. We can only go on without confirmation from him which he didn't provide. We can only go on the signs. Which are he walks around unmasked. So i'm guessing that he is vaccinated. No thank you again. Tom by will call you next hour right. We're not on next. Yeah that's two appearances tom curran. Nfl insider for the patriot patriots insider. Yes that's a heck of a month for tommy current because i think it was three or four days ago. He posted his article. Going all in on mack jones and a lot of people up in boston and elsewhere said you're on an island guy. Well he was looking at this that what he was seeing like. Let's take names out of this. Let's take everything else out of this. Just who's available. And how was he performing and mack jones who's available cameras not miss five days with covert protocol and he wasn't playing a lot in the preseason and even when he did there is nothing real special there mack jones. Thirty six fifty two for almost four hundred yards in the preseason. He made a throw against the giants where i went. That's a big boy throw it. That was his only touchdown through during the preseason. And that's the first time i went. Wow like that was. That was great. So that's where tom brady would said. Hey you can't do a better now. But he but he made a read through unbelievable pass in a small window. And that's the first time because you can't really take too much from preseason like you can watch it and you're going okay. Who are you going against second-string Are they letting you throw it. All dump off passes data to throw. That was legitimately es all pro throw mclovin. yeah he makes these long. he's been defying expectations in alabama. He had more long throws at alabama and in preseason like it does seem to be.

"Miami does no matter what carolina does. The story is still there that this is. If you want shawn watson. this is what it's going to take and those three teams continually come up. Here is bill belichick. Ask about his quarterbacking situation. Have to announce you're starting quarterback is to the world advantage in your preparation. It's your opponent doesn't slow again. I would just say tom. The we're gonna do is what feels best for our football team. And that's what it'll be Team to keep that under wraps or would be best for the team to know. The situation is at certain positions. Excuse me excuse me. I have no idea what you're talking about tom. Curren was hanging in there with chuck. Yes he is classic. Tom curren moment right there. Yep here is mack. Jones who's auditioning to become our next jimmy jamerson the patriots quarterback on if he could be the starter in new england. Played well enough to start. What did you say thank you play well enough to be a starter. I mean i've gone a lot opportunities To play in can improve on everything. I want to improve so I think just learning from hoyer cam jerry anybody. I can and just listening to josh. And his coaching. There's a lot of work to do. But i think i've made progress but honestly just only thing that matters is today and then tomorrow tomorrow but i think the past is the past in. We're kind of moving onto. the new. New season passes a past mayor. Talk about today. and then i'll be talking about tomorrow. Fred right thirty two on onto ready right now. Whenever i hear somebody talk especially if it's an nfl insider. I always think of jimmy jamerson that they didn't say anything but he takes a long time to not say anything and It's quite a knack for our nfl. Insider jimmy jamerson for example. If i said jimmy jemison hey would you start justin fields in chicago. Jimmy what are you. What are you finding out right now. Matt matt nagy and his staff are going back through the preseason looking seeing who had the most reps who had the most quality wraps actually and right. now. It's coming down between andy dalton and justin fields. They're very high draft pick. Obviously andy dalton was the man before they drafted fields but now since field has joined the roster. There's a little bit more of a battle going on. i think for that week one star. Okay yeah thank you. That's that's our insider. Jimmy jamerson thank you..

But i think i've made progress but honestly only thing that matters is today and then tomorrow it was on tomorrow. I think the past is the past and kind of moving onto the new season here. Why i'm sorry passes the past the news the new and it's onto today or tomorrow until tomorrow. Yes are you really doubting. Who's starting week one now after listening to that. There's no way it back jones. I don't know he could have been trying to cover up because there instead of saying. Hey i obviously am not starting here. It's like well you know. I have played well and You know john tomorrow and i don't know yeah. I completely disagree. That answer was. That was a veteran quarterback saying nothing to reporters in a busy media town. He's going to get a deal w. e. I assume it was awesome. Blew forty to forty to read right. Tom curren who covers the patriots tweeted. Ask bill belichick if there's some benefit to keeping his decision at quarterback under wraps before the opener he countered by saying. Wouldn't it be better for our team to know who's playing well. Okay yeah coach. Wouldn't it be better to let your team known that your quarterback you know who it's going to be. Don't you think you should let your team know what players are playing. Yeah that's not a bad not a bad angle from tom. Wouldn't it be better for our team to know who's playing where god so he's totally. Get it so bill saying wouldn't it be better for our team to know in the other team not to know. Is that what he's implying. I don't even think he's answering the question saying wouldn't it be better for our team to know who's playing where so those. I don't know how much drama we have do. I think trae lance is going to play. Do i think drop jimmy. Garoppolo is going to start. Yes i do. I think garoppolo is going to play but i do think knowing kyle shanahan and how his mind works. He's probably going down in his basement. This chemistry set there. He knows he can do some. You know different things trae lance and i view at the same way. You know the patriots. You can use cam. Newton in certain situations down by the goal line. You can't use those with matt jones. But i still. I think back jones has shown that he can be and will be the starter in new england eventually then he has those traits. I can't say the same thing about jordan love with green bay. Still don't know watched. Still don't know and i think that's the interesting part of it..

Yes he was now. The field is there and now. There's a true quarterback battle and once again. Jimmy jamerson is not based off of one particular person a handful but i i had another nfl employees. I don't want to say if he's analysis insider but he wanted to know if this was an inside joke and it was based upon him. And i said no. But if you if you hear some things in and you can add to jimmy jimmy johnson's resume than we would love that to. A man to man met a hit a little close to home for people. Yes and what does that say about that. Insecure analysts are inside of that thinks that may be maybe about that person and what they deliver. Every day they might be about just makes it.

"Let's hear what bill had to say. Yeah don't really have anything to add and released a statement that covered as thoroughly as as we can without you know getting into a lengthy thing. So let's leave it at that referring referring to cam. Newton situation Connie do you think it is going to be mack jones job and if it is do you think it's because of what happened with cam newton and cove. Well now now. Tom curren and saying that. It's going to be mac then. I believe tom. This holy said it should be right. So but if but if they're lean if thomas leaning that way and now it feels like everything is going in that direction. I've kind of changed my mind on it. Because i originally thought cam for sure would start the season. I don't know am i. Am i drinking the kool aid now at this point is are you guys feeling that it's going to be mac. No i match exactly what you said that. I really thought it was going to be cam. That maximums is probably exceeded expectations in. I do believe tom that anyone. That's watched practice. Every day comes away thinking mack. Jones is already better and watching the preseason games in as much as i love cam and want that i believe it. 'cause mack jones looks impressive. I also want to point out the history here. Tom curren had one of the best calls in sports writer history. I'll never forget it. Yeah i think he was at the providence journal. At the time he was gone for tom brady before two thousand and one drew. Bledsoe was literally the highest paid quarterback in the nfl. At the time. And thomas calling him. A hood ornament. That robert kraft was putting on the front of his car that contract and he said tom brady was absolutely better. And we should have won that job to start two thousand one and it was like. It was like tom. Brady's boy for the rest of his career for that and so i don't know that sort of context matters to me here. He's i'm sure he's right. And i'm starting to think it will be met jones week one. I am wondering though to someone who's slightly dyslexic. This quarterback competition has been a problem for me because mac and cam are the same spelled backwards. Is that an anagram or can someone can one of the listeners. Tell me what that is. Because an anagram i think is when you can rearrange all of the letters but i feel like there's probably i'll andro or is that the one that sounds. I don't know somebody clear this up for us. Rome is a word fraser sequence that see backward great. Thanks dan just texting you about this. Hit me up. And he pailin. Drome related shout the. Thank you paul rudd in other news and other quarterback news teddy bridgewater won. The denver broncos starting quarterback job. We talked about this a little bit on wednesday.

"That. I tell you when. I have a source and i tell you when i don't have a source i don't have anything in new england but i do trust tom curren but i do think tom. Curren has not exactly been a cam newton cheerleader and i think he's probably going mac is is our guy yes mclovin. I've heard the comparison went ballot check. Chose tom brady over. Drew bledsoe brady early in his career. Slow and steady not spectacular bledsoe. Big strong armed but that nowadays doesn't quite work. Does it not in this situation. I mean bledsoe got injured. Yeah but then he could've gone back to back to them in the title game. Yeah and he chose brady. Who has brady wasn't brady early right. He was her. Go back to that super bowl when you know the great john madden saying. Hey basically with brady inexperienced. They're going to be playing for overtime. In that game against the rams and brady in a two minute drill is throwing passes and you could almost hear john madden going. I'm shocked i'm surprised. And then viteri kicks the field goal to win the super bowl in that moment it was like. Hey just don't screw things up or at least that's what we thought with tom. Brady i remember after that super bowl. i didn't. I didn't see enough greatness in brady where i went. Is he really their future. Like is he going to be great and i remember asking analysts who joined us that monday after the super bowl. Because i didn't see it and then all of a sudden it crystallized and you had analysts saying oh no no no. He's going to be great. Well you gave drew bledsoe one hundred million dollars with brady but you probably didn't see it sooner where you're offering bledsoe. If bledsoe doesn't get injured what happens in this situation it's crazy. How if trent green doesn't get hurt. The kurt warner story may never happen right. If peyton manning doesn't injure his neck then where does andrew luck. Oh is he's playing now. Does payton get another super like it's crazy. How this stuff happens yes mclovin. Do you think drew bledsoe. And trent green could've gone on to win super bowls with those teams around them..

"Current who was there yesterday said this. He said there's no on-field reason for cam. Newton to ever take a meaningful regular season snap for the patriots while match. Jones is upright in able bom the week to week day to day. Play played comedy of jones for the past three. Weeks has in my estimation and those of moose to the people watching every rep put to bed all debate about who is the better quarterback for the patriots in twenty twenty one jones performance wednesday in the patriots. One hundred fifteen minute. Joint practice with the giants. It took debate in and turned out the lights. Wow we got to talk about for. Kevin wilde's patriots but nick. I'm gonna let wild similar little start with you now. Cam newton actually returns from kobe protocol today but has matt jones officially one. Qb competition. i don't think he's officially one. The quarterback competition. I think tom curren did what tom. Current is sometimes prone to do which is lean into hyperbole. and that's why he's great. That's fine. I don't think the competition is over however i do. This is a lesson for all the viewers out there. Whether they're aspiring pro. Athletes are not. This is why it's dangerous to miss work. I know it's very in vogue amongst people my age and younger to get on social media and be like take all your vacation days. We self care. Yeah okay that's fine but you might hit replace like i'm a big believer in. It's very hard to get rid of the guy that's always. There is a lot of hot. Take no it's not good morning. you're you have a you have even more time to sell care if you're unemployed like you got all the time in the world if you're just scanning the you know the job listings and cam. Newton miss basically a week of work for totally preventable reasons. And now all of a sudden he might have a lot more of missed work for preventable reasons. Which is mack. jones. Might take his job. And greg. I think bill belichick wanted and planned and hoped to start cam newton. Week one against the miami dolphins. I think those wants and plans in hopes are now very much in the air. And i don't know that belichick wants to do that anymore. Anyway so yeah. I don't listen. I don't think mack jones is officially won the competition but i guarantee closer right now that it has been at any moment since the patriots put the pekin and that's cam zone doing and a credit to evidently how well matt jones played over these last few days of practice. Yeah well mag. Jones obviously has done his job because he has everyone in new england talking about him and his performance. Which is what you wanna do when you are given this type of an opportunity cam on the other hand. He's done what what most veteran players thinks is okay and that they can get away with because of what they've done and what history has proven provided and shown us that i am this player. I am great. I can't bounce back but when you when you decide to do something that puts the team in harm more in jeopardy or puts a coach in an unknown in unfamiliar territory. It is hard to rebuild and re stacked that trust in. So when i look at what tom current is saying. I find it hard to believe that. John is outright one. The job in five practices. however. I will say this. I've been in a situation. We're not i got into green bay and i was in a very very competitive receiver room. A donald driver was number one guy and we. We didn't know who was going to be number two Robert ferguson was the guy. There was rod gardner former first round. Pick a lot of other guys and tell us job greg. Tell us here. A couple of those guys got injured. I was. I was there every single day. I performed excellent every day. I pop the team on every single day and our put came walmart bag what he created open door for me to be only one being seen and talked about in this situation. That is what cam. Newton has provided for mac jones which is why it is going to be a much more difficult situation in decision for bill belichick and staff to just outright hand. The job to cam newton. Yes so i think he might end up handing the job to jones and this has been a rising tide. Oddly we haven't seen any video of this practice. We've just seen a bunch of reports. So like i was in a kind of a tough spot i was like. I can't get up to foxborough. There's no video so football season's coming so i had to send a friend old ulysses back with a report from foxborough guests box where the news always a little. Bit damage money back. Oh it's a long trip from new england my friend. It's okay if we can the petition of some. The news is brought back to me. Listening don't wear ulysses boom knack meeting the moment from mike greece. What else do we have. I think our guy are guy. Evans says the all mac shredded the giant. Starting defense jeff. How gave us a double whammy there mac at eighteen consecutive completions and also a surgical thirty five or forty. I don't wanna get to it cited. Although i am excited i brought a you know a bird onto the second but nick and this is just practice. You know what it felt like you know. Well start to make a lot of noise in practice. All patrick mahomes. You started to hear the rumblings out of kansas city. Ooh this two years in practice. He's doing things that we've never seen before. Have you seen reviews like this out of a guy. That there was question marks about it has been owned worth welcoming. It's not one person thurs that. Hey you know what. Nancy jones okay to one person who didn't like like forrest gump. I'm not a fan like stop trying to unique your take on self care. Everyone agrees not meet. No one hundred one hundred per reviews hundred percent on the mac jones rotten tomatoes rookie king be rating. I couldn't be happier with you are. I'm i'm happy for you. And i wanted to be with you. But you're like a gymnast. That has these unbelievable in the air vault routines and then every time when it's time to land and not only do you not stick. The landing like ended up falling off the apparatus entirely like. There's always happened. You have the makings of a great take. And then you can't land you're like hey you know it reminds me of moms know. It reminds me of almost all the reviews. We typically get about a guy who had a good practice but that's not the point. The point is they were really good reviews or the guy who had a good practice and the other guys reviews are nothing because he was on zoom so no i'm not ready to like give it a hundred out of one hundred rotten tomatoes rating but the other movies not in theaters anymore. And so that and this is like a tale as old as time the younger cheaper a person. I'm not reading sports just in the workplace. Is there the veteran. More expensive stalwarts.

"Which is how they won this last game by the way they were down in that game and it was like you know deep backups. Who came back to win that game. But yeah it's it's the most random thing ever because lombardi was a nut and it was a different era so i'm sure like they were. They had bart star like doing. Qb sneaks labor our saying yes. I like games but now some teams taking more seriously than others in the ravens in the patriots and there are teams. I think that you can see it by. Who plays their starters. They do take it more serious so it's a little less random but still that's insane but basically what we're going to try to do. Is bill parcells. One of my favorite parcells 'isms don't tell me about the labor. Show me the baby now. This is the inverse. We're going to tell you about the labor. The baby don't matter we don't care about the baby. Get rid of the baby. Send it off to an orphanage fine. Good luck to you baby and your life. Whatever happens to you. we're also going to bring back the hot button thermometer. Yes for nfl head coaches. Who's safe booze and a little bit of danger. Who's but is on fire going through it once. Run through thirty two. We're going to figure that out. Who were the who were the coaches to keep an eye on in terms of job. Security entering twenty twenty one. Not as many as usual. That's my preview. That's that's my bigger shorter list. I thought the same thing we're gonna get into that in a few minutes but let's start. Yes with preseason week one everyone in action. You have the hall of fame game between dallas and pittsburgh but this was the week where all thirty two kicked off. their preseason slates. Now it's three games for the first time had been four and previous to that six a now it's three and who knows where it goes from here but so each game matters a lot internally for these teams and let's share Some things that you really you know should care about the things that mattered greg going. I'll start with the patriots quarterback battle because one of the few positions. That's up for grabs with a team. That has a chance to make the playoffs this year. And i thought mack jones plane with the starting group that the offensive line starters stayed out there with mack jones when he came on for his first series mattered. That as bill belichick has shown throughout the scam giving jones a legit chance to start and then more importantly i think mack jones backed up what everyone said about him during training camp. The numbers didn't jump off the page. This is one where it really helped to watch. Because he just was very comfortable. Running the offense made good throws make good. Decisions made quick decisions in almost the entire camp. Everything i'm reading from greg in boston sports journal tom curren. And all these different writers. Mike greece like it was all sort of backed up in this preseason game where cam for the most part looked good but it's like a little slower making decisions and there's always like one player like what happened there and then that mack jones look like he belonged and i wanna take too much from it it. It's early but ron rivera jack. Del rio worth throwing a lot. Both quarterbacks that really makes a difference. I think in evaluating it. That was one team that was blitzing. And doing all this stuff and mack jones. I think really does have a chance to start week one. And if he doesn't he's playing well enough and if he keeps it up that it's just like he's putting that tape out there to start week three like he is. He's backing that up. That real quick. Because i think all the first round rookies had positive starts here mack jones. You looks exactly like the type of qe prospect. That bill checks been looking for since jimmy garoppolo and graduate. We talked about it at saturday's pool party for the young jack kansas. That new england's on fire with this guy. I have mixed feelings about this when the crowd started going a little too nuts for mac jones coming in. I'm just like why does this give me such conflicting feelings. But i think i know why but anyway so mac looked like the he looked like he's the guy that's going to be meaningful snaps this year Real quick i'll just cycle through a trae lance with that rollout than throwing across the field eighty yard touchdown Just fields with td pass and the td scramble at replaced. Andy dalton zach wilson. After some hiccups in the week leading up to this game he looked poised. Lead the jets onto scoring drives against the giants and trevor lawrence. A bounce back from that early sack and led the team. And just i mean the has anyone past the look test more than trevor lawrence. Coming into the league guarantee. Looks like a star in. Maybe that doesn't translate. But i have no concerns that trevor lawrence is not going to continue to get better. As his rookie season continues. Well lawrence lawrence was put under a lot of pressure in that game against the browns. And then he. I thought of all the group and interests weeks to go to me just fields. Just absolutely you talk about someone that cannot be suppressed. There's something about the way he throws the ball. And i kind of remember mentioned this on. Its pro day where it was paired with mack jones on multi our to our. I just think the way he throws the ball is just something that even a young child. Not a watcher of football could just see the beauty of it. And the one thing i liked about him he got off to a bit of a slow start and he worked his way out of it and there wasn't a comment that i read in the athletic from his high school coach who obsessively watches all stuffy. Said the coach's name is matt dick. He said if felt exactly like always he kind of gets the feel of things and then he takes off after that and you could just see him grow in confidence throughout that game. And if you're a bears fan. I mean you just have not seen this from the quarterback position in decades and decades and decades and he completely changes the complexion of that team. And here's another guy. He won't be starting week one. Apparently it's just a matter of time because he is counter opposite visually and athletically especially on the move and what he can do with his legs and how he's so quickly and easily through the ball on the move. Andy dalton is fine. He's fine that's the sailing he he can't do any of that stuff like you cannot. The fan base is gonna literally not just fields sitting on the sideline as he was warming up. That home crowd was going literally. It was going crazy that they've been waiting for this forever. The preseason crowds have been going nuts. I have noticed. I think people miss being football games last year. I went to the rams chargers even even that crowd with know getting into fights and go and fairly nuts for like a bunch of backups. Were you near that flight. Greg i wasn't. I wasn't aware of that until twitter. The next day. I was not involved with any of those i was not involved was not there i did. We did get on the jumbotron very quickly. Which is the big has to be the biggest jumbotron in the league. It's like wrapping around. It's it's outfields by the way i think. He has a chai summers to the mercedes benz stadium in atlanta. They're now this thing now this thing now because it goes all around and it's so be it. I think it's it's different. It's bigger i think. Feels as a shot the star we going but he has to play yes to improve each week. He's he holds the ball forever and any was making plays in. Your right arm is just like so obvious. And he is reminiscent of russell wilson. A little bit. But he's not going against matt. Flynn to get the starting job so i think he'll have to kind of like make steps each week..

"Behind Cam Newton for half for the full year. It just makes too much sense, though, and I believe that we were patriots. We'll We'll end up with Justin Fields not drafted. Whether it's Moving up to seven or eight. Moving upto 12 13 or just staying in 52 taking. It might be surprised at Justice Field in a Patriot By Thursday night, Matt Patricia didn't burn too many bridges in Detroit to make that move happened, huh? Certainly could've I think for the hard part about Detroit at seven and Caroline at eight. So when Carolina's a little bit different Detroit It's really a eight or nine player draft after the quarterback so If you're the Detroit Lions, you'd love to move back that you don't have a lot of picks in this draft class for a rebuilding team and a front office. That's brand new. But if you leave that top what do you have? No. Eight first round grade that are not quarterback and you moved 15. Now you're into your second round grade. So I think the Lions may find it hard to move past 12 13, But the Panthers have more first round rates. I think You've got a good polls that they do move toe 13 with the Chargers, their 50 with the patron. They could get a guy, So I think the Patriots Panthers trade makes a lot more sense. But you're right. The Lions may not want to do. I don't wanna do mathematician any favors. Hey, I know you mentioned, you know, with fields that he was a perfect fit. So you mentioned your that McCain was one of the mobile quarterback you about He like Lamar Jackson. Beyond that. Why do you think Justin Fields is a perfect fit? And should we be nervous and buffalo if they get Justin Fields? I would say yes, again, part of it. I think the chip on his shoulder. Justin Field has had that over his career. He was a number. He was the number one quarterback until Trevor Laurence overtook about think he had that ship on the shoulder. Obviously. Getting beaten out. If you want to say beat now through outward by Jake for 100, Georgia, which the funny side is saying, and ice, I think going to Ohio State now being the fourth, maybe the fifth quarterback taken so I think you want that kind of player. But really, it's because he gets to work behind and learned from a very similar person and player and Cam Newton and the Patriots don't have to rush. Hey, they have enough talent. That they can go eight mate this year with Cam Newton. I think Bill Belichick and the Daniels knows that so for Justin Field, who has so much talent and probably could play right away, not needing him to play right away, kind of reinventing his ability in the pocket and working through You know, working with tight ends at to China and set something Justin Field hasn't really done a lot of state, giving him time and any court back that gets time and in the draft process, I think has a better chance to be successful. So, with all that being said, you have the Patriots. You have McDaniels, who's very smart can do in tow. Watch over him a lot of talent on that offense and more to come a team that believes in you having that chip on his shoulder. All those things. Maybe think Justin Field into England could be very dangerous for the F C east of the absolutely forward. So let's let's get a little plug in here. I'll let you plug optimum Scouting. You can follow Eric on Twitter at Eric Alcoa G A. L K O And Why don't you get a plug in for optimum scouting? Yeah. Also for just was named officially yesterday as the new director of football operations for the East West Shrine Bowl, which is the longstanding college All Star game. I'll be in charge of that and making the shrine Bull and the opportunity and awesome opportunity for media for players were NFL teams. T O be a big part of the draft process, so they get some of the East West Shrine ball moving forward after all, talk to you guys a lot more about draft prospects. Especially in next January, preparing for the 2022 NFL draft down there with the East West rival. It's good to have an end we had, and then when you were with the except found now we gotta in with the East West Shrine game, So that's all right. Just trying to help guys just trying to help so appreciate. Well, congratulations on that and thank you for coming on with us this morning. Erik enjoyed the draft. Thank you guys. Good luck this weekend. Thank you, Eric Delko, Optimum scouting, joining us on our Western hotline. When we get back, all right, New England. I'm telling you, the Patriots, right field has got to be its core back or Boston if they don't get it done. The draft is a failure for them. They love to see him take a linebacker and around one. What if this is this? Also, By the way, the whole thing strikes me like some of the Patriots, Super Bowls where people do stupid things in front of them and allow them to get the thing that they shouldn't have. I'm not taking Justin Fields. Third to me. Looks like Throwing on first. Just give the ball to Marshawn Lynch. Yeah. Hey, hey, seventies. Go. Just take Justin Fields. Well, if they don't, I think that Jesus. They don't. I guess then the discussion is okay. Lanson. Well, whatever fields is left how many other teams were taking a quarterback? Anybody else trading up trying to get ahead of New England Trading up? Mean Carolina should and Denver should. And Detroit? Probably should. Yeah, But will they with with golf? I mean, that's not the golf is any great, like Oh, we can't take a quarterback. I hadn't thought about the lions very much taking a quarterback after that trade. Yeah. E feel like Detroit would would put that up for bid for some team that wants to get up and get Justin Fields or whatever whatever quarterback is valued its on the board. I feel like they would use that to trade out and and leverage teams against each other, as opposed to taking a quarterback themselves. We had New England anyway. I'm doing them when we get back. Tom Curren, NBC sports in Boston will join us and we'll talk more about what the heck the Patriots might be doing. Come Thursday and the rest of the.

A boy named Sue two tackles for atomic gun? No, he had two tackles. Who cares? But it's a boy named Sue. You used that one before. Have definitely separated Just three field goals. That was a bugger kicking. That would explain No, you're not allowed to the Chief's not to be a sucker for a man holding that one stock up. By the way. I'm not to be a sucker, but Brady is a Godwin.

Oh, I'll give it credit for tone Guy lost a finger playing with fireworks. That's not funny. That's not nice. He's got a Super Bowl ring. He's gotta well, this one.

Win? Nine more rings because that would be a bad. Know what? Okay, I'm gonna leave it at that. Grand crunk. Who's there? Another title for Tom? Yeah. E don't get out of this. Uh, just put your business day in sports history. Thanks to set me up with this Dan 1936. The NFL had their first ever draft who did the Eagles take with the number one overall pick in the draft. Jay Berwanger, the Berwanger. They don't know what he did with the Eagles will be played. What position I think is for university Should. I think it was a tight end? I don't think he played. I think he went into dentistry or something. As a poet. He did want to play the Eagles so bad. He chose another profession a bunch of criminals of our point stuff. That's That's it, Um Okay. 2003. Mario Lemieux of the Penguins became the second fastest in Michelle Player to reach 1000 career assists. Marla Movie has a lot of these Lamu, where he's a second of this second of that, it's all the Gretzky if he had stayed healthy, I think he would be recognized as the greatest hockey player of all time. He was kind of quite the freak in his size and mobility. With any idea are mere younger. Okay long, who was a big guy, too? But what Lemieux did, and he had so much range, you know his wing span and that size. I mean, it makes what Gretzky did even more amazing, But, you know, for for Lem, you to be that skilled at 642 20 or whatever it was, you know, Hockey had not seen something like that before. But had he stayed healthy? I think he would have been recognized, You know, maybe that's far fetched to say it, Uh, you know, giving generations here like Gordie Howe, uh, spectacular. Messier's expect. There's so many great players, but I thought when you was Unicorn in that sport. Then you might say that Gretzky was his well. Oh, Chuck in north Carolina. Hi, Chuck. What'd you have for me today? Good morning, Dan 6 ft one a post Super Bowl smorgasbord to 74. Uh, best of the weekend was the Tampa Bay defense. The worst was the entire halftime show and Particularly the after mentioned jockstrap outfitted back up dancers. You know, as far as the game, I think what we saw last night was, you know one exposure of Listen, Patrick Mahomes is incredibly insanely talented. You certainly got the gumption and the you know the throwing in the arm ability to come up with these crazy passes. As you mentioned he kept the ball too long. You know the left sideline pass, Terry threw it in the corner of the end zone and got deflected but nearly caught You know that those plays they work in the big 12 on Saturdays against, you know, Iowa State cyclones and the TCU horned frogs, But and you know this I mean, we see that this is not sustainable in the NFL. I think we'll see next year is really the reckoning. As far as this in my mind anyway, put the question into, you know, we know the NFL defense is when they catch up with these quarterbacks. And they find out you know the way to stop them and exposed her weakness. And so I think we'll see next year. This puts a question in my mind about last year's Super Bowl. I mean, he was not good in last year's Super Bowl, Of course, the 13 15 to tie retail We got bailed out, of course, San Francisco You know they didn't make a player too, that they needed to be. Oh, alright. I gotta Chuck. I'm gonna I'm gonna go out on a limb and I'm going to, uh, put my money with Patrick Holmes. That this is in Texas Tech. It felt like that was last night. He didn't have any protection whatsoever. They still of great skill position players. I'm gonna guess The offensive line will be a whole lot better. But we've you know that Brady's lost Super Bowls before too. And I don't think this is one of those. You know? L they're gonna figure out Patrick Mahomes. Give credit to Champa. They did what they were supposed to do. They took advantage of, you know, in experience, banged up offensive line, and they put pressure on him. Yes, he I think people just sort of assumed, though, that the Chiefs were unstoppable, right and like the sort of the story line not to overreact, But there's still plenty of time and Patrick Mahoney's career for him to be a huge disappointment. To start out this hot and then say he never gets back. People are gonna look back and say what happened? What went wrong? He was gonna be the greatest quarterback of all time, and they only got that one ring. Maybe, but it his age of 25. He's he's got history on his side. He's got time on his side. I'm okay with Jumping on the band way staying on the bandwagon with Patrick Holmes? Yes, my club and he runs it back with Tyree kill and calc next year. He should be okay. It was time to kill last night. By the way, we talked about that pre show. I think that the Buccaneers were bound and determined. If if we're losing, we're not gonna lose with Tyree killed on the damage. But I've been saying that for a month now. You if I can choose If I'm gonna lose, I'm gonna shoot like I think that's why I never wanted Michael Jordan to take the last shot. Right. I would double team him. And if Steve Kerr Hittite or John Paxson, I can live with that, but I can't live with the best player getting the ball. And they limited him. He did have 10. I think he was targeted 10 times, but he was never able to really, you know, display his wheels. And I think that that was, you know, brilliant on what Tampa Bay was deciding to do. And it was a conscious decision that this is what they were gonna do not blitzing pressure on the homes and we're gonna make sure Tyree killed. It's not Venus. And they did a wonderful job and his result. They won the Super Bowl obviously lets you go around the room. What we learned on the program will start with you. Odd, Christian says Carson. Winds needs to get the hell out of Philadelphia period. And why would the bears? I've interested him? McLovin. Rick Stroud didn't hide in the bushes. It was a fence with some vegetation when he was observing Tom Brady during those preseason workouts, seat. No, Connor. We'll see Tom Curren sometime about nine months now. Nice to have Tom on.

Maybe not tow a Super Bowl past my homes in the NFC problem, you're not happening. No, We'll just take a big time Pasadena on the Patriots because they're not good enough. Again, something that has not been said for a long time for anybody in the National Football League. The Patriots aren't good enough or don't want to play for Bill Belichick. He knows things actually be true, according to Tom Curren of NBC Sports up in Boston. That's what leaked out that the on Lee team that Matthew Stafford said he wouldn't play for. Are the Patriots. Damn! That's kind of harsh. I'm trying to say it without smiling, and I know it's difficult to pick up on someone. Smile on the radio. Oh, yeah, I'm smiling all because I'm a I'm a jet guy and I'm gonna bash tech guy. I admit it, Then I give you unbiased opinions about everything in football, but I don't want to try and hide. My status as a long suffering jet fan. And yes, I'm jealous of the Patriots and have been pray, long pleated period of time. Two decades as a matter of fact, so if they're coming back down to Earth Can you see me smiling through the radio? That would be a pretty good trick if I could pull that off on the other thing that we talked about last night again. If you miss you, not a problem. You're excused, but you've got to stick around for this one. Had Gary Meyers on and Gary's great writer and one of the projects he's working on. Right now he's doing a podcast called the Goat Tom Brady, which he had seized the greatest of all time. And Gary a couple years ago, wrote a book about Brady and Manning. That was great, Great, great. Great book never added your die hard football fan. You gotta look into it. I forget the exact title. I don't have it in front of me, but it was bad. Calm Radiance. Peyton Manning, written by Gary Meyers. So he struck up a lot of great relationships and doing all this research for the book. And he did a lot of what he thought were really good and poignant and insightful Interviews sign his podcast. He plays parts of the interviews that he did, and he brings it even though the book was a couple of years ago, and they talk all the way back to when Brady was in high school and then went to Michigan and didn't play the Brookie and then finally got a chance when Bledsoe got hearts, and it's all great stuff that he's documented and done interviews with Tom and others around him for years. S O. He talked about his podcast and the funding he's doing in the enjoys it and he thinks people like it. And he said that he had over the last couple of weeks been surprised that he'd heard from some people friend is die Our jet fan. But people had actually started to warm up to Tom Brady. That it does advanced stage of his career he'd become A likable guy. That's some out. Tom Brady had won over the masses. He had the video clip that came out him playing catcher to breezes. Kids after the box, not the Saints out. They showed it on TV last night, him going up hugging his son, who was in attendance for the game in Green Bay last week. That's nice. He had a couple of good family moments, but I still look at Tom Brady's Tom Brady. Never been a fan. Never gonna be a fan. Gonna be appreciated the Vince talents and skills and givens props and give him his due and calm the goat. But I'm not rooting for him. Has Tom Brady become lovable. And this his new environs in Tampa and yes, at an elder age for quarterbacks, a really elder aid for quarterbacks as a matter of fact. Has the pendulum swung on Tom Brady. And are you rooting for him next week in the big game between the keys and the Bucks? How about my telephone lines? I got three. Good guest coming away.

This could be a really cool NHL season playing into which could be a very different NHL playoffs. I'll tell you about that. We'll talk about that later football to start the trade Stafford going to L A and whole bunch of picks. Jared got going to Detroit How Detroit handled it. Did Detroit getting up and exchange form?
