DUMBEST decesion in 25 years? Did the Pats make the wrong choice in their starting QB? Thoughts?
Transcript
00:00We've talked about it a little bit, but it has now been approximately 22 hours since
00:05Gerard Mayo has named Jacobin Brissett the starting quarterback for the New England Patriots.
00:09And I gotta tell ya, I... this is not hyperbole.
00:14This is the dumbest, D-U-M-B-E-S-T, all capitals, dumbest decision, not involving Tom Brady,
00:23that has been made in this city in 25 years.
00:25In 25 years?
00:26This is the stupidest decision I've ever seen in my life.
00:29Because here's the thing, for all you people that are like, the offensive line stinks,
00:33you're gonna get him killed out there.
00:34Well, when Jacobin Brissett gets killed, what are you doing?
00:36You going to Joe Milton instead of Drake May because you want to keep sitting him?
00:40You cut Bailey Zappi so the other guy you could throw out there to get banged up isn't
00:44around anymore.
00:45So if you're really worried about the offensive line, Jacobin Brissett's probably gonna be
00:49dead after week one, the way he looked against the Washington Commanders, who, by the way,
00:54now it's time to get into the Washington Commanders.
00:57Wiggy pointed this out yesterday.
00:58Great job by you, Wiggy.
00:59Excellent research.
01:00Washington Commanders, according to PFF, 27th-ranked offensive line.
01:04New England Patriots, 28th.
01:05They have no problem starting Jaden Daniels.
01:07And you want to know something even crazier?
01:09The Washington Commanders' defense is going to be bottom fourth of the league, whereas
01:13the New England Patriots' defense should be top half of the league.
01:16Nobody, Shyam, no one in the league, virtually no one in the league, who took a quarterback
01:24in the early portion of the first round, is not starting him except the New England
01:28Patriots.
01:29Yeah, it's literally just the Patriots and the Falcons because they had signed a guy
01:32to a $100 million contract guarantee, which makes sense because there's the other group
01:37of people that are like, well, look at all the other quarterbacks that have sat behind
01:40starters and been successful after they sat for some time.
01:44Yeah, because they all sat behind playoff quarterbacks like Aaron Rodgers and Brett
01:47Favre and Drew Bloodsoe and Alex Smith.
01:50And like, it's just I'm losing my mind.
01:54People are trying to justify a ridiculously dumb decision, and they sound even dumber.
01:58And it's becoming infuriating to me, and I'm really upset about it.
02:02Shyam, well put.
02:04Very, very well put.
