There you have it.

Toucher and Hardy resumes on the sports show.

0:09.0

He's in the gun on the fourth down and two.

0:11.0

He takes the snap.

0:13.0

It's a, it's caught by Biggs.

0:15.0

Shakes a defender, right, left side, 35, 30,

0:18.0

across the 30-yard line and out of bounds at the 28th

0:21.6

and with time coverage on Stefan Diggs he made the catch from Drake May peeling away

0:26.6

and now the Patriots who convert on the fourth and two

0:30.6

I love that gain of 20 yards to people understand what a gamer this kid is? He is just a gamer.

0:37.8

He shows up and everything that is thrown to him, he fights for, he competes.

0:43.3

He plays with an edge.

0:44.6

I love everything about this player.

0:46.0

So it sounded last night, big fourth and two conversion for the Patriots.

0:50.1

Drake made a Stefan Diggs one of the biggest plays of the game, and I must say Bob Sosie sounded excellent, which is a borderline miracle given he's been sitting next to Scott Zolak all season long, especially over the course of the last month. And I know why. It's because you should know that every game with Bob starts with his favorite Bigelow tea, no matter how hectic your day gets. Be sure to grab a mug of Bigelow tea and tea proudly.

1:13.5

Well, Bob, what was your major takeaway last night from the game? Because I think there's so much to get into. There was so much that happened over the course of the 60 minutes of football. What was your number one takeaway after calling it? Man, I think you go back to, you know, a word that we heard a lot of whether you use resiliency or resilience, I think early on when the Patriots began, the long winning streak before the loss of the bills. You know, there were words like effort and finish that were repeated by Mike Vrabel and then back to Mike Vrabel, you know, when people asked him about the culture and what he was trying to build as the head coach of the Patriots.

2:18.6

And I thought there were a number of times where the Patriots really showed a lot of resilience early in that winning streak in particular,

2:24.3

bouncing back from whether there was a set of circumstances that didn't go their way or injuries as the streak went on.
