Hey!

Had a bit of telling!

It's a 40!

It's this time, world champion, and there ain't nothing you can do about it. Hey, what's up everybody?

Welcome into Tom Carman's Patriots Talk podcast alongside.

We got Phil Perry.

We're also going to bring in a guy named Bob Stern from the Athletic who ranks the franchises since the beginning of the Super Bowl era every single year.

Kind of charts their progress, one through 32.

Also, we're going to have J.T. the Brick, legendary Raiders reporter and late night host to talk

about the addition of Josh McDaniels out there for the Raiders. But let's start with Phil.

And Phil, I think it's starting to get into the nuts and bolts of the team a little bit. We talked tight ends recently, but offensive line, I think, is an interesting spot to look at.

Before I get to my summation, if you had to give a letter grade to the Patriots offensive line in 2021, what would it have been?

Probably B minus.

Pretty good running the football. Pretty good at protecting the quarterback, honestly.

I think a lot of that is the offense itself and the quarterback himself, protecting himself,

getting rid of the football.

But the offensive line was a disaster, the first month of the season.

They almost got the guy killed.

So you dock him for that.

And I think you dock Isaiah win for just not being, in my opinion, a $10 million

tackle, which is what he's going to make next year.

Too many penalties, not consistent enough.
