00:00our new england patriots in seattle this evening just 15 long hours from now and there's i i will
00:11i will say this right off of the off the jump here this morning there's a little bit of pressure
00:18on
00:18will campbell i addressed that during thoughts on the doc this morning there's a little bit of
00:23pressure on drake may and i like i i don't i don't know how much pressure is on mike rabel
00:28or not i
00:29care less about what happened uh during the during the off season right um but both of those guys
00:36wiggy with an opportunity to redeem themselves after what happened in february yeah at least you
00:42know get changed the narrative especially uh will campbell because i think the year that drake may
00:47had last year you know being runner-up to mvp i think a lot of people go all right he
00:53wasn't great
00:53in the postseason is that you know was part of it because he's a young player and then he dealt
00:58with
00:58the injury in the super bowl which a lot of people don't take that into consideration i mean
01:04the guy was nailing what was it an ac joint um that he was in the super bowl that he
01:08had one on the
01:08shoulder so you kind of look at that and i think then will campbell is obviously somebody who kind
01:13of dealt with injury as well but he didn't have like the mvp caliber season yeah prior you know
01:21obviously prior to the and now they don't have the excuses on their side like going into yeah it's week
01:25one you gotta you gotta get the rust off that's fine but for both will campbell and drake may you
01:29can't say young guy anymore right season of starters you can't say injury right now there's been no
01:34reports of that it's been and wiggy brings it up all the time the fact that we have heard zero
01:40things
01:40about will campbell during preseason is very interesting oh it's awesome and and very but also
01:46though guys they haven't played in a game oh that's true so you only really react to a left tackle
01:53playing poorly when the quarterback gets decapitated yeah i mean i guess i get that point
01:58curtis but also the the pressure on vrabel and the excuse for the players exists in rust if drake may
02:05doesn't look good if he and aj brown aren't on the same page if there's issues with blocking if there's
02:10issues with timing that goes to vrabel because that's an easy second guess that they didn't play
02:16a single snap in the entirety of the preseason and that would be something that you could easily look
02:21back on and say maybe they would have been better off playing a series or two well and and josh
02:25mcdaniels you know he put a lot of the blame for what happened in that super bowl on himself
02:30and up to him when it comes to the blitzing that that the seahawks like to do and to the
02:37pressure
02:38that they can bring up to him and to drake may to deal with that and i can't wait to
02:43see how they do
02:44tonight yeah and well and you know a lot of like you said the blitzing and the pressure those were
02:48things
02:48that were confusing drake may and now that he understands the offense better he now knows he
02:53won't get caught with his you know pants down and going like oh i didn't see that i wasn't aware
02:58that i didn't if he has the time if he's not if he's not afraid of being knocked into forever
03:03yeah i
03:04mean in one in a second let's not talk about pants down right he also doesn't seem like somebody who
03:09gets scared out there no i'm scared but it's like you know on this you are remember you asked the
03:14question on the why the not understanding why this play was called and where the potential risk can
03:20come from this play and i think you know he now knows the offense even better the will campbell
03:26situation i think it's going to be all right what does he look like there's no excuse you're healthy
03:30what do you look like if you look poorly out there tonight and you're healthy then i think there's going
03:36to be a lot of concern because i give him a pass somewhat for the injury and being able to
03:42deal
03:43in the postseason i know a lot of people don't give him that but i give him that well and
03:47the
03:4712s are going to be lubed up and loud tonight raising that banner so you gotta deal with all of
03:54that
03:54nonsense as well on the road if you are the new england patriots and you got that boy aj man
04:00you
04:00didn't have him yeah yes like you didn't have that dude shy move out are we hammering uh anytime aj
04:07brown td tonight what what's the hammer tonight uh aj brown six plus catches aj brown anytime touchdown
04:12drake bay 240 plus passing yards there's your sgp for the day greg okay i like it yeah i'm all
04:18over the aj brown uh anytime touchdown okay the only one i'm questioning was the 240
04:24well i think he clears the 240 passing yards that's a little the other two i say definitely
04:29i mean even in a crappy super bowl performance he still had 290 so like again again super crappy
04:36performance right still ended up with 290 a lot of those were garbage yeah like i said still crappy
04:41games still add 290 and seattle seattle is dealing with a depleted secondary correct so they have a
04:47bunch of injuries um and so i mean obviously i would expect that witherspoon got paid and so yep
04:54um he's uh gonna want to show that he's worth it but so was in gonzo yes you know so
05:00so so isn't
05:01christian gonzalez so i think this is what is mitch smoking this morning in the twitch show what does
05:07he say i haven't say i hello good morning thank you for watching the show if you're up early
05:11thank you for commenting on uh what is going on in the twitch chat i what's mitch what's he saying
05:17patriots honestly need a perfect game i don't feel that way at all a perfect game they're playing sam
05:25darnold sam darnold led the league in turnovers last year regular season yeah and he has a brand new
05:32offensive coordinator right and uh his running back the super bowl mvp not on the team anymore
05:37roster versus roster the patriots roster is better compared to the super bowl would we all agree
05:42oh better than their super bowl yes oh yeah 100 percent not even close i'm with you the thing that
05:47i also when i start to look at this this patriots team and their roster is much better coaching staff
05:54i think they're going to understand some of the mistakes that they made but here's the thing we kind
05:58of touched on this yesterday if they lose as long as they're not getting the doors blown off
06:04i think most people be like there's no real panic it's like all right they lost to the defending super
06:09bowl champs week one first game out the uh gate you know in seattle no real panic but if you
06:15win
06:16i think then the narrative changes on a national level and even locally where it's like oh you know
06:22you know how we are we're gonna go back to the super bowl yeah exactly so there's more i don't
06:27think
06:27the uh i don't think there's gonna be a lot of negativity if you lose this game unless drake
06:32looks absolutely atrocious yeah hey greg good morning if you thought i was gonna do anything
06:36other than football you've clearly never listened to this show uh a immediate response to the uh
06:43texter from the 339 saying drake may is mid i cannot wait for drake may to have a fantastic year
06:49this year he may not be the mvp of the nfl this year i think he'll be in contention for
06:53it but i think
06:54the addition of aj brown and romeo dobs will unlock a side of drake may that uh no one has
06:59ever seen
06:59before i think people continue to praise caleb williams and get excited about a caleb williams
07:06jump and continued growth i think drake may still has so much growth left to do uh he has such
07:13an
07:13unbelievably high ceiling what you saw last year is just the tip of the iceberg like there's so much
07:18left for drake may to figure out about himself and how to play in the nfl he is the the
07:23arm talent
07:24the movement ability everything the the stuff between the ears he has it all uh and this season
07:31i think you're going to see him start to put it together just like what happened for josh allen when
07:35he got stefan diggs in his prime drake may gets aj brown and i think this unlocks a whole new
07:40level of
07:40quarterback uh for our uh our young man he did a little work with you in the off season
07:46sure did that's it got him ready for aj brown i mean we have like the same level of hands
07:51right
07:51hundred percent catch rate over right and the amount of swag too like aj brown right and the same
07:57similar same physical presence too right yeah true very intimidating i would say aj a little more
08:04doughy yeah i think he only has like an inch on me so you know i mean he put a
08:09little extra put a
08:10little extra zip on that second pass he threw to you shot and there was no doubt that thing was
08:14locked
08:15in you know you could handle it yeah he did he trusted me okay um thank you shot
