Yeah, we're going team by team. I would be very careful, man. It's not like we're going to get sued on legal on this ball

season, all the things that go with it.

Welcome into the PFF NFL podcast, Steve Palazolo, and thankfully, Sam Motten, two are together. I'm here.

An eventful, an eventful morning here, mountain time on media row. It was tenuous for a bit. We thought I might be doing the show solo. Maybe not for today, maybe forever.

We thought Sam was going to the slammer. Yeah, but had a police escort for a while. Yeah. He was getting intense over there. What happened, man?

I went to the bathroom to change a shirt and somehow lost a credential, which turns out it's quite a big deal here.

That's a big no-no. Yeah. I instantly went to security like, hey, my guy lost your credential. We get him a new one, help him find it. He's like, we might have to get the FBI involved.

Yeah, all of us are thinking this is just a case of. We'll just cancel a credential on the computer. We'll draw you up a new one. You have to get a new one. It's a bit of a pain, but you're good.

No, apparently I think the FBI homeland security was definitely one of them. Several agencies were going to need to be notified if this was legitimately lost.

And I had to have a police escort around the place. Is that just because your Irish or is that just standard protocol?

I think that's like how seriously the NFL appears to take security for this kind of thing. Yeah, we don't want anybody taking your credential and acting like you're Sam.

No, but I got it back. So I'm allowed to be here. So anyway, I do want to get into what the rest of the show is going to be.

But I want to also understand, you know, how you broke free from the cops here. That was great. I'm proud of you. On this show, we get a great one.

You know, we're going to get to the bottom of the conspiracy theories. And, you know, Taylor Luan, he's a big man. Yeah. But not bigger than me. So he was intimidated by me. That's right. And we're getting some answers. So we did record this yesterday. But we got some answers.

To the PFF conspiracy theories and called them out on their misinformation. We did because that's what it is. It is a campaign. A misinformation campaign from Busson with the boys. And we called them on it. And you guys get to see that later.

Campaign of lies. It is house of lies. Yeah. It's a great discussion though. We had a good time there. And we'll get into some of the Patriots dysfunction from this past offseason. It felt bad. Right. We talked a lot about. Hey, why it was Matt Patricia Colin plays and Phil Perry from NBC Sports Boston.

He'll be with us to discuss just how bad it was. And how they pretty much knew from day one. Right. Like, you know, sometimes you're like, you're on the outside and it seems a certain way. Yep. And on the inside, it is exactly how it seems. And we'll just kind of confirm that. Absolutely.

Let me show you a t-shirt first, though. Okay. So it's why how this had arrested. I took this t-shirt off in the bathroom. In order to do that, I need to take my credential off. And then somehow lost it. This is a t-shirt given to me by somebody.

Well, a group called the terrace apparel. So V terrace apparel. These things are a little embroidered images of like various football plays. So we got Josh Allen here, your favorite player, Steve, number 17 in your hearts.
