00:00as incredible as I thought the Drake-May-Steph-Diggs experience was.

00:04I feel like people are talking about this game in a way

00:07that's sort of betraying the real story here, the main story,

00:12which is not necessarily that Drake-May and Diggs are connected.

00:16I mean, that's a great story. It sure is.

00:18But you look at this particular game,

00:21this game in Buffalo against the Bills against Josh Allen,

00:25two things happened, okay?

00:27The Patriots scored 23 points.

00:30And that's, listen, I'm thrilled.

00:31It was enough to win the game.

00:33The Buffalo Bills scored 20 points, okay?

00:37You know what the Buffalo Bills have been scoring for points this year?

00:41The Patriots, in their losses, lost 20-13 and 21-14.

00:47They beat the Dolphins, they scored 33.

00:49They beat the Panthers, they scored 42.

00:50Against the Bills, they scored 23 points.

00:52So, listen, I mean, it's a bit of a range there, right?

00:55The Buffalo Bills, in the prior four games,

00:59of which they were undefeated, won 41-40, 30-10, 31-21, and 31-19.

01:07The Patriots' defense held them to 20 points on their home field

01:11and kept them out of the end zone for an entire half.

01:14That, I think, if, you know, like, that, to me, is a much bigger deal in some ways.

01:22And I'm not talking about for the future of the team and the long term and the long run and all that.

01:27I'm just talking about this one particular game.

01:30What made that game special?

01:32What made that game special?

01:33Diggs and May had the great highlights and May stiff-arming Jones and then throwing that ball to Diggs and the four.

01:38That was one of the best plays I've ever seen.

01:40That was awesome.

01:41Oh, did I love that play.

01:42I watched that play over and over and over again.

01:44I watched every angle of that.

01:45I had the All-22.

01:46I subscribed to All-22 just to watch that.

01:49I'm just kidding.

01:49I didn't do that.

01:50I don't even know how to subscribe to the All-22.

01:52And even if I did, I'd probably never use it.

01:54But either way, I watched lots of different replays of that play.

01:57That play was awesome.

02:00And that was really, really awesome.
