| 0:19.2 | Hey, what's up, everybody? Welcome into Tom Caron's Patriots Talk podcast. It's |
| 0:22.8 | Thanksgiving week and we give thanks for the Senator Phil Perry who is alongside the Patriots. Well, |
| 0:27.3 | we give thanks for them in general because for us chroniclers in the media or fans or anybody |
| 0:35.4 | who's experienced the run of greatness, it's been a great time. |
| 0:39.2 | Right now is not a great time, Phil. |
| 0:40.7 | They're two and eight, and they've got a game against the hapless giants that they're |
| 0:43.3 | probably going to lose. |
| 0:45.5 | What gives it quarterback? |
| 0:47.3 | What do we know so far as this week has gone along? |

| 1:45.1 | Malik Cunningham was present. |
| 1:47.0 | I didn't see him play either quarterback or receiver while we were out there. |
| 1:51.8 | So this looks like a two-man race for the starting quarterback job right now. |
| 1:56.2 | And it looks like it could be another hold my beer moment for bill bellichick where everyone says |
| 2:01.7 | we can't go back to mac jones not after you pull him down four with the game on the line |
| 2:06.2 | you've crossed the rubicon oh have i hold my beer here's bill bellichick when he spoke to us |
