00:00It's okay to say that Drake May is playing as well or better than Tom Brady did at this stage of his career.
00:07There's this, you know, this sort of like visceral reaction when you hear that.
00:12But it's, you can't play the position much better than he's played it.
00:16And he has played it much better than Brady played it in his second year, his first year starting.
00:20And secondly, I know we're all bummed out about Scooble winning the Cy Young.
00:25Yes.
00:26It would be better that Drake May didn't win the MVP.
00:30Because outside of Patrick Mahomes in 2022, there has not been a quarterback that won the regular season MVP and then won the Super Bowl in a generation.
00:40So all the years Brady won, the Patriots didn't win the Super Bowl.
00:44All the years that Aaron Rodgers was the NFL MVP, didn't win the Super Bowl.
00:48Lamar Jackson obviously hasn't won a Super Bowl.
00:50Peyton Manning never won the Super Bowl in a year he won the MVP.
00:54So it's kind of a hex in a way, you know, a jinx, a curse, call what you want.
00:59So don't worry about that.
01:01And it might add money that Robert Kraft doesn't want to pay to his salary.
01:05So wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if Drake May wasn't the MVP.
01:08And it's okay.
01:08He's playing better than Brady did at this stage of his career.
01:11Well, Wiggy, was it yesterday or the day before you were saying that you believe there ends up being some sentiment involved?
01:18And that Matthew Stafford ends up having the edge because he's been in the league for a while.
01:23Yeah, and I think statistically his numbers just will be better because they throw the ball a lot more.
01:30And they also, you know, you look at Devontae Adams, Puka Nuku, where Stafford is a guy who's been in the league a long time.
01:39He's won a Super Bowl.
01:40I think he's accomplished a lot of things.
01:43And that could be the one piece that he's missing to his career.
01:46And they're going to be good this year.
01:47But let's be honest, the Rams are a good football team.
01:49So even if they have, you know, one or two less wins than you, Stafford's going to probably have better statistics than Drake May.
01:57And they'll end up probably giving it to him, like, you know, you were saying, because of the sentimental value.
02:02Okay.
02:02Thank you, Curtis.
02:03Sean, are you taking requests this morning?
02:05Of course, Greg.
02:06A couple of texters on the Subaru of New England text line.
02:12And you can find your authorized Subaru retailer at SubaruofNewEngland.com.
02:17Are requesting the Justin Fields song for Wiggy and for everybody else.
02:26Thank God you weren't in the room, Coach.
02:33Yeah.
02:34I mean, believe you and me.
02:36I am glad I was not in the room for that one.
02:38Swing and a miss.
02:39That would have been a huge swing and a miss right up there with giving Cam Newton $30 million a year.
02:45The whole quarterback class that year looks like they all stink.
02:48But that's how lucky the Patriots are right now.
02:51The year they had the third pick in the draft, there were two other highly rated quarterbacks that allowed Drake May to go there.
02:57The Jack plays with each other dad's room for the Patriots.
