00:00The Patriots, of course, think they haven't won since week one.

00:06They have the Houston Texans come into town before going to London.

00:09So why not?

00:10It's time.

00:11Sit Jacoby Brissett down and throw in number three overall pick Drake May.

00:15Let's hear Gerard Mayo.

00:16Tell us the theory behind this one going forward.

00:18I think now, you know, Drake gives us the best chance to win now and going forward.

00:25He's been developed.

00:26I mean, he's been getting better every single week.

00:27As I said before, you know, at the end of training camp, he actually was trending, you

00:33know, at a very high rate.

00:35And that has continued through the early part of the season.

00:37And so, you know, solely my decision to make the to make this choice.

00:42I had a conversation one on one with Jacoby.

00:44I had a conversation with Drake.

00:47We're all on board.

00:48And I would also say, you know, Jacoby is a warrior and he took the news very well,

00:53like a professional, like you would expect from a guy like that.

00:57Here we go again.

00:58Oh, God.

00:59I mean, honestly.

01:00One guy is 20 years younger than the other one and he's the top draft pick.

01:07I mean, this is real simple.

01:08Let's stop sugarcoating it.

01:10And Brissett's a hack.

01:13That's it.

01:14Like, I'm done.

01:15I'm done with this Brissett stuff.

01:16Every year we talk about this guy like he's Joe Montana.

01:20I mean, just stop.

01:21It's just so aggravating to me.

01:24He's a hack.

01:25That's it.

01:27I've never heard anyone say it.

01:28He's like, stop it.

01:29What has he ever done?

01:30Nothing.

01:31Ever.

01:32Stop it.

01:33Yeah.

01:34Well, he he took it like a pro.

01:35All right.

01:36He took the news like a pro and he's such a great, you know what it is?

01:40He's such a great guy in the locker room.

01:42You know, you just love having him around.

01:45Really?

01:46He's good.

01:47He's a great recruiter.

01:48There is a great recruiter.

01:49Now, riddle me this.

01:50Wasn't this seven yesterday when we talked about it?

01:52So May's going to start down at six and a half now, minus six and a half for the Texans

01:58on the road at Foxborough.

01:59Thirty seven and a half is the total.

02:02Well, I mean, Houston's certainly better than the Patriots, but you start getting into that

02:08number seven, anything over five and a half this year has been automatic.

02:14So how about the kid has a big day and they cover the number but lose?

02:20Very possible.

02:22Maybe the kid does have a big day and shows us a little something this week.

02:25It is an interesting spot to start him against this team, who's pretty good.

02:30You're playing Jacksonville next week.

02:31You played Miami last week.

02:33But this is the week that young Drake May will start his NFL journey.
