00:00it feels like this is as you put it to me last night strength on strength the strength of the
00:06falcons is running the ball with their best player bijon robinson the strength of the patriots
00:11defense to this point has really been flexing and shutting down the run to this point so how does
00:17it play out when we get to sunday i think there's a chance they're able to keep the streak going
00:21and part of the reason they've been able to rack these number of games up where it's now eight
00:27consecutive games no 50 yard rusher is that they've gotten out to at least in their wins they've gotten
00:32out to to decent leads in a lot of these especially lately right and so that forces the other team to
00:37throw the football it in some ways takes away the threat of the run their tackling has been tremendous
00:43the patriots are near the top of the league in terms of limiting yards after contact so after the first
00:48couple of weeks where i'm sure you guys and others everyone was all over them about missed tackles
00:53and it's something that it feels like they have completely turned on its head that aspect of
00:59their defense so i think there's a chance it continues however it is rare to be able to string
01:05this number of games together with that many rush yards for your opponent they are one of just three
01:12teams in the super bowl era to have eight straight games with no 50 plus yard rusher the last team to do
01:19it was mike vrabel's titans in 2021 the bucks did it in the covid year the tom brady super bowl year
01:24in 2020 and that's it so nobody's done it nine times and we'll see if the patriots are going to be the first
01:32the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the first one is the
