00:00To me, it's like Josh McDaniels, I make the analogy, he's like a chef, he's got these ingredients,
00:05he knows he's got a guy coming off the torn right ACL, how much can I use him?
00:11Let me throw a little more digs into my recipe this week, and I hope he keeps doing that,
00:15because I think we saw the difference it can make.
00:17And particularly with Drake, like the rapport that they developed in those gotta-have-it situations,
00:23I think is major implications if they can keep that going, going forward.
00:28What do you got for your big three this week?
00:30Well, start with how great to just watch good football.
00:35Maybe not even one of the big three, but we were so spoiled, right, for the better part of two decades with Bill Belichick, Tom Brady, Teddy Bruschi,
00:43all the great players that they played at this high level, probably not, we did not see great football the last couple years.
00:50So just to watch an operation again that looked at that level, that was my overall thought.
00:57But big three, what they did with the running backs, because we talked about it so much last week,
01:03Ramondre gets the first carry, I thought that was a statement.
01:07At the same time, at halftime, Ramondre had played 11 snaps, Travion 10.
01:13So I look at it, and Antonio Gibson, 5.
01:16And I think that's a telling thing, because that's when the game's competitive, first half,
01:22you split it almost 50-50, or close to it.
01:26And I think we'll see that going forward.
01:27Why is that important this week?
01:29Bill's run defense is their vulnerability.
01:32If you're going to go in there and win the game, probably need to run it, right?
01:35Right, yeah.
01:35So tie that into this week.
01:37On the flip side, and I don't know if you guys will agree or disagree on this, run defense concerns me a little bit for the Patriots.
01:44Yeah, well, Cook's a good back.
01:46I like him a lot.
01:46It's one of my favorite backs to call games against, because I think he plays hard.
01:50He's a lot like H-Han.
01:52He's got a burst, he's fast, but he's hard.
01:54He'll run hard, runner.
01:56And if you don't tackle him early, you don't get after him, he's the guy that gets better as the game goes on.
02:00Buffalo figured it out.
02:01I think that's, once they instituted him into the offense, it was just all Josh Allen, that's how they ended up putting us away.
