New England, yeah, I forgot they invented football. Oh, yeah, New England thinks they know everything. Oh, yeah, I know. Belichick's got all the answers, all that. They've burned bridges there. So there's a lot of people in football that just wouldn't want to deal with Belichick in general.

Yeah, I know. And listen, I'm friends with Mike, and Mike's the man, in my opinion. Yeah, he's great. He's somebody I talk about and talk football with a lot. And we see the game the same way. And when he does say stuff like that, I do go, ooh, all right, maybe, maybe. But again, too, I don't know. When it comes to business, I wouldn't exactly trust Bill Belichick in every word he says.

We've seen he can dodge questions and lie and bullshit pretty good to the media. And that's what I kind of find funny about the whole thing. He doesn't talk to the media for the last 15 years, and now he's a media darling telling everybody about how every team should play and coach and do all this. And I think it's very, very hypocritical, honestly.

I don't want to say that, but it's the first time I've questioned it. It's definitely gotten to a point. It's a lot, Chris. I know. I've had fun with this all week because I always go, next man up, next man up. I get it. It's cool. And I know we all want to latch onto that. But let me just give you a little story and an inkling into next man up, OK? Next man up, right?

After you get past the first guy to the second guy, it's usually like, well, there's a difference. There's a reason he's a starter and that's a backup. Once you get to the second guy and now you start going to the third guy, then it becomes like, oh, wait. Third guy's playing. I mean, we cut him last year. He wasn't even on a team. Now he's starting for us.

So like you could say next man up all you want. There's a big drop off. And that's what you worry about with them. It's banged up. And it's not like I don't feel horrible about their starters.

on the D-line and things like that, it's affected their depth to where when they come off the field, you look at the second unit and you go, oh my gosh, they have no chance against this offense or Josh Allen and this offensive line. And that's where you worry about it. They're going to have to adjust their style. And I don't know what that's going to be, Stugatz.

That's going to be the interesting thing. Do they just go super aggressive with their offense and go, screw it, we're going to outscore you and we're going to play that style? Or will they go a little bit like, hey, we can run the ball and control the clock and do that. We're good enough to do that on the offense, and maybe we play that way and not put our defense out there as much.

I'll be interested to see what Dan Campbell and companies' approach is there in Detroit. I still believe in them, but as you know, With the injuries, I certainly don't think they're the best team in football right now. You know I think that title goes to the Philadelphia Eagles.

Well, I mean, it's going to be hard not to play him. He wants to play. I've been around Mahomes too many times in my life and gotten the chance to know him a little bit. He's a psycho. He's the psycho you want in a good way. He's a gym rat. He's obsessed.
