01:15look like he's from nantucket there once was a man from nantucket who had a he could
01:21and if his ear was a what that was that uh the office had that remember uh david wallace had
01:29suck it he was gonna you know pick it up and you suck it right jimmy close your ears
01:36wow you created this he said go ahead he won't even pay attention he's he wants to hit the delete
01:44button on this this is what he wants to do yeah you can't can't hey here's here's a good news so
01:50what's that the good news is this was a good day for the patriots this was a bounce back day for the
01:57offense but this overall from start to finish you can look at this day in foxborough and say
02:03hey august 6 2025 today was a good day is what you can say for a lot of reasons one the football was good
02:10the competition was good right the two teams were competing hard with one another and it was very
02:17very organized it was quick we couldn't believe how fast the teams went from their stretch period
02:24into real game-like action scrimmage action right out of the gate it was it was smooth patriots look
02:32good they competed hard they competed well a lot of guys represented themselves well today and they
02:38looked like they belonged on the field with a team that was one of the hottest teams in the nfl last
02:42year and was playing on championship sunday in the nfc title game the patriots competed and looked like
02:49they belonged with that team today and the patriots are dealing with issues of their own not having
02:54their starting corners out there right right no terry mcclorn for them so uh this is the biggest thing
03:00i take away good day this isn't carolina this isn't cleveland that was in here for joints right this is a
03:05team that is a real football team right good quarterback well coached good offensive coordinator
03:10uh can you say maybe they outkick coverage last year a little bit maybe maybe i think i think they
03:16got breaks i think things went their way sure quarterback got hot uh but when you look at them
03:21they don't look like the eagles eagles look like a better team i think dallas when you look at them
03:25even though they don't win they look like a better team um that's not a big team but what i like about
03:31the commanders they got each other's back you know when these skirmishes uh took place out here
03:36same thing with the patriots boom everybody up right away separate so the message was out there
03:41guys you get in a fight you swing you swing you're leaving camp you're getting out of practice uh so
03:46cooler heads prevailed i thought it was a good work day um a lot of people have been worried about
03:51the offense will camel what are you gonna do in a rookie what about morgan moses taking days off
03:56who's playing center i thought the operation offensively was was the best it's been all year
04:02and it goes to show you the slow build that i think mcdaniels has in his plans for drake may
04:09start him slow take the stuff that's there and then you start taking shots i mean there were five or
04:14six back-to-back-to-back-to-back throws and henderson uh dropping one in the end zone uh they're all
04:20touchdowns they were effective high efficiency good in the red zone good with the tight end ran the ball
04:25well ran the ball well will campbell had a good day he was fine looked good he was good yeah yeah i
04:35mean i'm not going to tell you he stood out as having a great day but it was good he protected
04:40the quarterback yep and his blind side well out there so no complaints about the offensive line
04:46today he may have gotten beat on one play by detritch wise but nothing that and that was in a one-on-one
04:52situation and so i i don't know i not much to nitpick at out there today so that's what you're
04:58going to hear too he got beat by uh detritch wise and a lot of people here have respect uh for
05:04detritch wise and i don't know why you don't 35 and five-eighths arms 11 inch hands big guy he was
05:10here forever got a nice deal to go to washington um team captain for how many years here so that's a
05:17good player that's a good nfl player that went up against will campbell he's gonna lose a one-on-one
05:23here or there i think will campbell won the day against yeah right i'll take it i think the whole
05:27offensive line i said that during the show look at the pocket look at the pocket dobbs had and how
05:32about dobbs ever since we got on his ass over a week ago he's looked pretty damn good maybe they
05:37don't have a backup quarterback situation they probably don't they probably don't maybe they
05:40don't have a bad problem we're stupid yeah yeah it's gonna be tough still i mean i try to watch
05:45groupings as much as i can i have no clue who's gonna be in a huddle friday night but uh you know
05:50we got production meetings tomorrow and stuff so we'll have a better grip on that but it's just
05:54it's gonna be a bleep show these preseason games this friday at one o'clock next saturday it's gonna
06:02be your last chance to see anybody in the place before week one uh against vegas because you're not
06:08playing anybody at third preseason game against the giants so you you got about a week and a half to work
06:14here to get ready for week one then you hide it close doors put your game plan in for for vegas
06:18how about the camping kayshawn booty seven i i think he's one of your best receivers i think
06:24if i if i if i had to pick him in pecking order i would go digs pop douglas kayshawn booty
06:31one two three and then matt collins yeah i would give you i would agree with everything you just said
06:37i'm just basing off what i saw here with hollins and i don't see anything but size wise like they
06:40that's a pretty good group booty is growing and progressing balls and developing like a player
06:46drafted where he was drafted should right he's always getting better his game has improved he's
06:53come a long way had a great off season it's paid off in this camp so i i'm just getting to a point
06:59now after having watched a couple of weeks of this of thinking hey maybe we should readjust what we
07:04think kayshawn booty is capable of for this team he's always been kind of like oh well that nice piece
07:10solid little player you know he gave him a little something i don't know man maybe he's developed
07:14into something better than that maybe he's developing into a real player and he's going
07:18to be helped along with josh mcdaniels here i i compare it i'm not making the comparison as a
07:23player or a patriot hall of famer i played with troy brown he was continually getting cut getting sent
07:28down didn't have the respect always had the high price guys first round picks in and all troy did
07:33will show up every day bust his ass make plays make plays in practice make plays in preseason games
07:39to the point where pete carroll talked to me and him and said stop throwing to our first round pick
07:43chris canty he reminds me of like the path troy troy took keep fighting nobody gives him a chance
07:50you know the national guys they're not going to look at it and say oh this guy's a keeper
07:53because you're not here and you're not watching him he's here absolutely deserves it he's here and
07:59he's a big part of their plans based on his reps good crowd today though great crowd great crowd
08:04again the buzz i think another thing to take from here today the buzz it's it's almost like let's
08:11say you turn the page post brady post belichick but there were some dull days here man there were
08:16some dull days and uh i got caught in traffic coming in crazy never so did i we both did i called you
08:22that's good hey got a problem here yeah traffic getting into the parking lots is
08:27mouth was all backed up outside of 495 it was backed up getting in here that's good news
08:31so the buzz was back the fans were back felt like there's something to be excited about and the
08:38patriots delivered gave them a great day of football out there so it's our last day from here right yeah
08:43this is it man so so overall what do you think we got out of this camp what did we really learn about
08:47this team what can we take away i mean i know we have preseason games remaining but as far as watching
08:51them on a day-to-day basis it's over other than we'll get updates from next week when they go out
08:57to minnesota for joints i think what you take away is what what's been transparent all off season
09:01it's it's the slow build of having an organized team a real leader in a room they're they're going
09:08to be more buttoned up and uh they move and they practice and i think you could you could call camp
09:13cushy and i asked mike that too during the first election i remember we had two days he kind of
09:18rolled his eyes he's like yeah i can't do that anymore and that's why i say blame the league but hey
09:22everybody has to prepare like this and it's sort of a give and take and i think he has to create
09:28that balance where if you got to give him a day and in shorts and backward hats and you know sneakers
09:33so be it so but i think the team is off to a good start i'm excited from what i saw today that gets
09:40me excited for friday night i have no clue how long they're going to play i'm a better handle on that
09:44tomorrow well we're looking forward to it and of course that game on friday night can be heard
