The New England Patriots get win number one on this season, and it is a Patriots Monday.

You can talk about that all day long here on Boston Sports Original, WEEEI, and we are at Jolette Stadium.

And coming up in about 10 minutes, they said it.

We will go over what was said over the weekend in sports, and then at 8, we'll be joined by Boomer Asiason on this show.

And we will talk everything NFL this week, not only at Patriots win, but a Chiefs

loss.

And Joe Burrow may be gone for the season.

All of that with Boomer coming up in a little bit.

But we have leads left, including this one from Courtney. Hello. Hello, good morning, everybody. I already brought up my lead this morning when talking about Mike Vrable before he came on in the way in which he dealt with Andre and the other kicker. After the game, he gave out game balls, said that he had all the confidence in the world for him going for 53, 50 footer, 54 footer at the end of the game after missing two extra points. Yarder. Yarder. Yeah. What I said? Footer. Footer. Oh, sorry, Yarder. The way in which he dealt with, and Greg brought it up, and I was so happy he did, the way in which he dealt with Drake May as well on the sideline, it just speaks volumes to the type of coach we have here in New England now. I thought Gerard Mayo was great when it came to the way in which he did interviews or talked to us, the way in which he joked around with players. But Mike Brable is a perfect balance of treating his players with respect while also demanding the best out of them.

And we've seen that now in two weeks.

Obviously, week one wasn't the outcome we wanted, but week two was.

And I just think that Mike Rable is going to be able to build that relationship both ways,

player and coach moving forward. And I only think that it's exactly what we needed here in New England. I really, really liked how he coached in game, how he dealt with players in game, how he dealt with media post game, and how he dealt with players in the locker room after. You know, the easy thing would have been to give Ramondrey Stevenson the game ball after the game or Drake May the game ball after the game. But the guys he gave it to, including Ramandre, he really spread

the wealth and I think highlighted guys that should be highlighted after a game like that.

And I would say we finally got an answer as to where maybe that caller was right.

Gerard Mayo was in the Providence Airport and he went to Tennessee to see Georgia against

the balls.

That was the first public sighting of Gerard Mayo I've seen since he left here. Yes. Not a good outcome for him, I have to say, but a very good outcome for me. Yeah. Wiggy, that was a big win. Yeah, that was a huge win. Big win for your dogs. Gunner, man. Gunner stepped up when he needed to. Yeah. You know, Gunner definitely stepped up. That's going to be the key.

It's all about even that we've talked about this before, NFL college, it's all about how your quarterback plays.

Where would Arch Manning be today if he had a different last name?

Oh, God.

Oh, man.
