00:00Something that might be a little less messy just because of the excitement around the

00:07Drake May era, we got another 930 game Jaguars stayed over across the pond, but you got the

00:13Patriots versus the Jags spread opening up at five and a half total sitting at 42 and

00:18a half.

00:19What do we make of this one?

00:21I think this is gonna be a big Tank Bigsby game and there's some injury concerns with

00:26Travis Etienne for the Jaguars.

00:29So Tank Bigsby, who has been legit good for the Jags, I think is a player that we can

00:33trust when it comes to the Pats, you know, the stats out there from Drake May after yesterday's

00:38game were awesome.

00:39He had three passing touchdowns and prior to that, to this point in the season, prior

00:42to yesterday's game, the Pats had a total of two passing touchdowns from Jacoby Brissett.

00:47So Drake May is absolutely the answer for the Pats.

00:51Do I like the Jags at minus five and a half?

00:54No, I'm simply not laying points for the Jags, a team that has been a complete disaster.

00:58Do I kind of like the Pats at plus five and a half?

01:00Do I think Drake May can go out there and have at least two touchdowns against this

01:04dreadful defense?

01:05I do.

01:06Who do those touchdowns go to?

01:08I don't know because there aren't too many consistent passing options, at least to this

01:11point in the season, because the Pats haven't been doing much passing with Jacoby Brissett.

01:15Can we look to Polk maybe?

01:17Sure.

01:18Can we look to a Hunter Henry?

01:19Probably that might be the safest answer when it comes to the Pats when they're pass catching

01:22options.

01:23We also need a note.

01:24Will Romandre Stevenson play because he did not play in their most recent game.

01:28It was Antonio Gibson starting the backfield.

01:31Will Stevenson even travel with the team?

01:33That's something we need to get an update on as well.

01:34So Jags, Evan Ingram, Pats, probably Antonio Gibson, then probably Hunter Henry.

01:41That's a good way to put that.

01:42I'm right there with you, though.

01:43I believe May can get the job done.

01:44We did see some good things out of him from preseason.

01:47He had some extra time and space to kind of get in that playbook and those extra reps

01:51at practice.

01:52And clearly, they would have held the reins to him if they didn't think he had the possibility

01:57of making some success.

01:58But most importantly, it's just the fact that they're going up against a team that's just,

02:01as you put it, dreadful.
