00:00You are gonna have to be asked about the Patriots.
00:02Like, you do need to talk about the Patriots, I think, right?
00:05If you're in these spots, they're gonna wanna hear what you have to say.
00:09Remember, we were all floored.
00:11Didn't talk about the Cincinnati game.
00:12They won the game.
00:14It was the biggest dog on the board.
00:15They won outright.
00:16The first game without Bill in 20-something years,
00:19and he doesn't say anything.
00:20Doesn't talk about the defense, doesn't say anything.
00:23And then now they lose the game,
00:25and, you know, he's talking about clock management.
00:28No, I'm with you.
00:29I don't think that specifically is gonna help him.
00:31What he really needs is for a good team to think
00:34that he is gonna push them over the top.
00:36Because for the most part, 95% of the league is thinking,
00:41young coach, we want a young coach.
00:43Were they a coach before?
00:44Don't care.
00:44Were they a coordinator before?
00:46Don't care.
00:46So a guy who has 50 years of football on his resume, they don't care.
00:51They're hiring guys that were all born
00:53way after Bill was a D coordinator for the Giants, right?
00:57They're going more young than anything else.
00:59But yeah, overall, him kind of chirping the pats a little bit doesn't really help.
01:03Okay, and here's my...
01:04Because I think Bill's right.
01:05I think Bill is right to criticize their clock management.
01:07We talked about it a ton on Monday.
01:09But we also talked about the Patriots the week before
01:12and what they did right.
01:12And we gave Mayo all this credit.
01:14That's us being consistent.
01:15Yeah, no, that's 100% what it is.
01:17And so they won.
01:19They looked well coached.
01:20They beat a good team on the road in their opener.
01:22We gave them credit.
01:23They lost at home against a team.
01:26I think they were on par with a very winnable game that they blew.
01:29And we criticized them for it.
01:31Bill's only done the criticism after the loss.
01:33He completely tapped out the week before.
01:36That's my issue because Bill's not wrong.
01:38That criticism by Bill is right.
01:39It's fine.
01:40But yeah, you can't have it both ways.
01:42And so when Lombardi was specifically Lombardi two weeks ago,
01:45where he brought up the Patriots winning kind of like an ugly game
01:48and playing really good defense and finding a way to beat Cincinnati.
01:52And then kind of tossed it to Bill.
01:54And he's like, just like Pittsburgh.
01:55Yeah.
01:55And you're like, wait, what?
01:56Pivoted right out.
01:57Like, how about 10 seconds on Gerard Mayo winning a game?
01:59And he's like, nope.
02:00Pittsburgh also won ugly.
02:01I can't give the man 10 seconds.
02:04And so look, the same thing we were just talking about.
02:06This is what does he do when they beat the Jets or lose to the Jets?
02:09Because he hates the Jets.
02:10He only wants to give the Jets credit for anything,
02:12but he'd be happy if they beat the Pats.
02:14Okay, Pats beat the Jets.
02:15Does he get any kind of joy out of that?
02:17Or what does he do?
02:18Well, here's it's going to be impossible for Bill not to compliment the Patriots.
02:22If they win, right?
