00:00Big picture view of this game on Sunday, Phil, is this is the Cleveland Browns.
00:04They have a bad record for a reason.
00:05They are a bad team again.
00:07The Patriots are ascending.
00:08They are on the rise.
00:09Their quarterback is in the conversation related to MVP.
00:13And on the other side is Dylan Gabriel.
00:14The Patriots return home.
00:16They should crush them and win the game.
00:18Is that the truth?
00:20Or is this a far more difficult game than the casual observer would give it?
00:25Yeah, I'm leaning more towards the latter there.
00:27Okay.
00:27Yes.
00:27Yes, because this defense is that good for the Browns.
00:30You know, they're top three in a number of critical defensive categories.
00:34Their offense is a joke.
00:38It is as bad or worse than the Browns defense is good.
00:44So, like, I would say this, though.
00:47The thing that's most interesting to me, and it involves the matchup, so I'm happy to get into the matchup.
00:52But I think it's really interesting because I think we're going to learn something about Drake May in this game.
00:57And I feel like we're learning something a little bit different almost every week about him.
01:02Whether it's, okay, look at him throw off platform in week two against the Dolphins.
01:05Now he's playing within the pocket.
01:07Now he's leaning on Stephon Diggs.
01:09Oh, now he's spreading the ball around.
01:10He's functioning against zone.
01:12He's functioning against man.
01:14And it feels like every single week there's something a little bit different that we learn about him.
01:18And I think this week the biggest matchup for me is going to be Drake May against his own instincts in a weird way.
01:28Because we know he's got that DNA to be this big game hunter.
01:31And I'm just not sure this Browns defense is going to allow the Patriots, and allow Drake May specifically, to be that kind of quarterback.
