00:00Everything's coming up Milhouse!

00:02I would kind of say that's how I feel coming out of the weekend, not to mention,

00:07just watching the whole league, you're like, the Pats can play with any of these teams.

00:12100% they can.

00:13Yeah, I mean, I think if it was truly everything coming up Milhouse,

00:17it would have been Bills lose, Ravens lose, like there would have been a few other things.

00:21But I think for the most part, you watch everything and you say,

00:24wow, the Patriots are as good, if not better, than everybody else, right?

00:28They're at least staring down the barrel of what could be a great rematch with the Bills.

00:32But they do have a pretty good lead on them right now.

00:36So you're feeling great about their spot in the division and in the conference.

00:41We talked about it on Friday.

00:43The Broncos-Chiefs game really kind of was a win-win for the Patriots.

00:46Either you're knocking down the Broncos and the Pats would be the one seed,

00:49or it's another week that goes by where Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid, and the Chiefs aren't in the playoffs.

00:55And that was what I was rooting for.

00:57I was rooting for the Broncos because the Broncos are also more likely down the stretch

01:03to lose a sketchy game that they shouldn't have lost.

01:06They've had so many weird games, pulling out games against the Jets and the Giants and the Texans.

01:11They are a tightrope walk, but they're winning games.

01:14Their defense is good.

01:16And Bo Nix, for all the flaws he has, he's very clutch and he can make a couple big throws.

01:20He's done it a million times this year.

01:21So I just want to jump in on that.

01:23That, it feels cliche to say.

01:26Like, ah, he's just a winner.

01:28He's, there's something there.

01:29If you watched the game yesterday, I do think you've got to give him that a little bit where it's like-

01:34I give him a lot.

01:35I forget who said this last night.

01:37Maybe it was on the NBC halftime show, or maybe it was on that broadcast of the Chiefs game.

01:42I forget which, but somebody was like, the defense is the calling card in Denver, but when plays need to be made,

01:49Nix makes them.

01:50That clip we played you of the throw to Franklin, it's a massive throw in a big spot.

01:55It pretty much seals the game for them.

01:57I mean, they're still going to make the kick, but I come out of the game with more respect for Denver.

02:01I don't want to disrespect them.

02:03That's a good win for them, even at home against KC.

02:05There's another shot at them later in the year in Kansas City.

02:08I come out of the game with more respect for Denver, but I agree with you 100%.

02:12That was a good net result for the Pats.

02:14Fine, you're the two-seed, but we agreed last week.

02:18We'd rather be the two-seed with the Chiefs out of the playoffs.
