00:00The Wingland Patriots, they have gone out and they made the move to go be

00:08percentage no more. Now Drake May gets to start at home against a 4-1 Houston

00:14Texans defense that has been playing pretty good this season. Donnie, what do

00:18you expect from Drake May? I expect him to run the football today and like a dope

00:21me I said you know what I can't wait for this number to come out it was 25 and a

00:24half waited on it forgot about it it's now 27 and a half and I don't know

00:28where it's hovering right now maybe even a little bit higher the one thing

00:30that we do know is he does have some wheels he is athletic that is a terrible

00:33wide receiving crew a terrible offensive line and now you're down from Andre

00:37Stevenson who was the one guy could be your anchor to say you know what give me

00:40just a little bit of effort here so I can throw the football it'll be

00:43interesting to see the offensive game plan for New England but for me I did

00:47bet Drake May in any time touchdown today 4-1 and I should have

00:50betted them at over 25 and a half rushing yards now if you want to get to

00:53the point where I was talking about the previous weeks here about Drake May I

00:56don't think he can play football I don't and I don't know if today is gonna be

00:59one of those right hey let's wake up but I'm in that conflict like I needed to

01:02play well enough to get some rushing yards and a touchdown today but and I

01:05also took him in a sell me something today which he needs to throw maybe a

01:09touchdown pass paired up with another rookie I don't want to splash the pot on

01:12that one I'm not looking for big things from Drake May other than showing his

01:16athletic ability and scrambling a big show. I'll root it in for you because I

01:19think it's a good look in at the aspect of the rushing attack 25 and a half 27

01:25and a half I think it's a bad matchup for Drake May going up against Houston

01:29they just shut down Josh Allen held Josh Allen to one of the worst performances

01:33of his career 9 of 30 30 percent completion percentage and they limited

01:39him to a hundred and thirty-one passing yards they routed him in regards to the

01:43fourth quarter and now they go on the road they haven't covered as a favorite

01:47this year typically shorter spreads and now they're laying basically a touchdown

01:51I think Houston rolls here I really do I like CJ Stroud on the road we saw that

01:57Miami was able to grind out a victory 15 to 10 the biggest aspect that I have in

02:03breakdown for Drake May is all right you put him in against this defense with a

02:07defensive minded coach D'Amico Ryan's a secondary that's been opportunistic

02:12shut down one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL if you're gonna put him in

02:16and implement him in this type of atmosphere and matchup you better make

02:21him throw the football you can't just let him hand off what was the whole

02:24purpose of putting him in here just to back up Jacoby Brissett when Jacoby

02:29Brissett only put up 10 points hopefully they have a game plan where they're

02:33gonna open it up a little bit because I did take the over 37 and a half I do we

02:39think we get into the 40s because I think Houston and CJ Stroud will look to

02:43push tempo without Nico Collins I think it's tanked out altered him to 70 and a

02:48half in the passing attack he's got multiple weapons I think they look to

02:52jump up early put the pressure on the rookie and then pin their ears back you

02:56might get multiple turnovers because it's his first career start and if he

03:00plays well Donnie then maybe that's points so I like Houston I'm going Joe

03:04public here I'm not I know public underdogs have covered I think this is a

03:09very bad spot I'm rolling with you you know it's really interesting about this

03:12game too is like I don't think Drake May's ready to be an NFL quarterback but

03:17sometimes there's about a saving grace for a your fan base and your locker room

03:20and your sanity you can't just keep running Jacoby Brissett out there with

03:24those type of results when you drafted a quarterback in the top five he's got to

03:27play football so I understand while they're playing him I just don't know if

03:31I mean can you think of a worse scenario though putting a rookie in with the

03:34weapons against offense I just don't I will never understand why they can't

03:43just keep letting Jacoby Brissett play I I don't get it I don't I don't I don't

03:48like you're a Sixers fan like you've seen the process but he's probably not

03:52like even because we're not in there with the X's and O's on the exact play

03:55calls if you're not executing the offense and running it doesn't matter

03:59how well you're running just running it the way it's supposed to be run you got

04:02to pull the plug because it hurts the entire team the rest of the way I agree

04:06but again at that point and look I know it would lead to you then like going

04:09even harder at Drake I don't get like all right Brian Hoyer like is he

04:12probably still around this franchise somewhere like I I would not be out here

04:17Donnie going to Drake May in what is still a terrible situation the Sixers

04:24were draft kids and immediately by the way you're out for your first year but

04:27yeah you can't even play yeah basketball like but no I know teams in the NFL

04:32don't tank they don't do full resets you should it is important to get blue chip

04:38talents and I'm not saying that Drake May is going to cost them a blue chip

04:42talent but we have seen the downfall of putting players out there too soon and I

04:48think that's what's happening in my thing the New England Patriots here

04:51today
