00:00this could be a game that's sort of similar to the game that the chargers played against houston
00:04uh could be a little bit of a tractor pull i don't think it's something that's going to be
00:08in the high 20s or the 30s i think it could be a game played more like in the teens in the 20s or
00:14the patriots pull away like mid 20s you look at the chargers defensively i i do like a lot of the
00:20things that they do with jesse minter and in fact one thing i would want to address right now that i
00:25heard at least earlier in the week was this idea that the patriots have a clear coaching advantage
00:30the patriots have a great coaching staff obviously led by rabel and josh mcdaniels but
00:34these aren't slappies on the other side with jim harbaugh and jesse minter and greg roman these are
00:41very qualified very good nfl coaches so i don't think the coaching advantage is as clear as maybe
00:47some people think that it is which is why i think it could be a closer game i think when you look at
00:52the chargers defensively they really like to disguise their coverages they play a ton of zone
00:57obviously drake may has been very good against zone they don't normally give up big plays unless
01:01they bust coverages which they did do against houston they busted two of them so i think it's
01:06going to be a challenging game for the patriots but but ultimately i think that the patriots are
01:10the more complete team i think they're playing better right now and they'll find a way to come out
01:16on top in the end okay so you may have just described some of it but what you said tractor pull
01:20why do you see tractor pull in this game uh because i think that this is a game as much as
01:25we talk about the two quarterbacks i think this is a game that is going to be defined by the two
01:29defenses and i think both defenses will have pretty good plans to try and take away things that both
01:36teams like to do and i just again i look at that chargers houston game and that's what that game was
01:42you know and i i look at the chargers team and i give the patriots credit for this too i think these
01:47are teams that can play different styles and if i'm the chargers i probably want to pull drake may
01:54and the patriots down into the muck in the mud a little bit and make it you know a messier game
