00:00 We're entering week 15.
00:01 Is there an NFL defense that has surprised you?
00:05 >> My answer's gonna surprise you because how could I be surprised by the great
00:08 play of a unit on a team that's three and ten?
00:11 >> Tell me.
00:12 >> The Patriots.
00:13 >> Oh.
00:14 >> Hear me out. >> We have not talked about their defense.
00:16 >> This is gonna take a minute because people are going, get out of here,
00:19 this guy's crazy.
00:19 >> [LAUGH] >> The Patriots lost their best pass rusher
00:23 in Matthew Judon and their best cornerback,
00:26 rookie of the month in September, Christian Gonzalez, in the same game.
00:30 >> Yeah. >> A 38 to 3 loss to the Cowboys
00:32 where people just wrote off the Patriots.
00:34 >> Yeah.
00:35 >> But Bill Belichick, for all his faults, and he's got a lot,
00:38 we could do a whole video on Bill Belichick.
00:40 But he still is a defensive guru.
00:43 He's a mastermind.
00:45 And the Patriots three and ten is a direct relation to their
00:50 historically horrible offense that can't score.
00:52 It's Mac Jones, it's Bailey Zappi, it's no weapons, blah, blah, blah.
00:55 >> Yeah. >> But the defense,
00:56 without their two best players, has not allowed 20 points in five games.
01:01 And they've lost a game.
01:02 Imagine if you're the defensive coordinator.
01:04 They've lost games allowing 10, 10, and 6 points.
01:07 >> Yeah.
01:08 >> It's just- >> What more can you do?
01:10 >> And I just think they deserve,
01:11 Belichick deserves a shout out for what he's done defensively.
01:15 Because it'll totally get lost in this season that you just like,
01:18 this is the worst Patriot season in 30 years.
01:21 It's one of Belichick's best defensive coaching jobs.
01:23 >> That's a good point.
01:24 And I'm sure a point that Bill Belichick is making-
01:26 >> I bet he'll smile and
01:27 reach out to me and be so happy.
01:29 >> No, I think he's probably making that point as he looks forward into his
01:33 coaching job there in New England.
01:35 >> As though he needs another bullet point in his resume.
01:38 I was a good defensive coordinator when we were three and 13.
01:40 >> Yep, it is one though.
01:42 >> Yeah.
