Chris Gaspur and Big Jim Murray

Give me that which I desire

It's Gaspur and Murray

985, the Sports Hub

Hey, all right Case you're now just joining The Sports Hub.

Hey, all right.

Case you're now just joining us.

It is Gaspher Murray here on 985, The Sports Hub.

But Chris Gaspher out today.

He's jokingly said to start the show.

There was a big sale at Neiman Marcus. So Chris had to go there and made sure he could pick up all the new belts and scarves that you can get for the winter. So in his place, we have three times Super Bowl champion. Ted Johnson with us here on 985, the Sportsub and you as well at 617779-0-985. We opened the show at 11 talking about this game tomorrow. He said like, ah, you know what the hell with it? I don't need to watch any film with the Carolina Panthers.

Nope,

not going to do it.

It's all about the Patriots going forward.

It's them that you're really going to be concerned about whether or not they're going to make any kind of playoff push. It doesn't matter who they're playing. How they play is more on them. The opponent really doesn't matter. and especially with this team tomorrow with a question of quarterback,

is it going to be PJ Walker, the former XFL MVP,

Sam Darnold, who blows and sees ghosts.

If the Patriots were to screw this game up tomorrow, it really has to be about the Patriots screwing up and not about them getting tripped up by the Panthers. To which I would mostly agree. And this Panthers team, like, I mean, how much do we really even know about them? Not all that much. Let's be honest. If you know anything about it, it's because of fantasy implications. You had Christian McCaffrey and you're angry at him and the team because he got hurt and probably screwed up your fantasy season. But as we talked about this game, one thing I have yet to even ask you since this is the first time you and I have been paired in a while and the season this started. Last time again, it was a training camp at the time camp

Newton was still here. Ted, the young quarterback, Mack Jones, through eight games. What have you

made of him? Do you think he's been a little bit overhyped in these parts these last few weeks?

Your assessment of Mac Jones through the first couple of months of the season. Well, first off, I just want to say Mac Jones has saved Bill Belichick's bacon. All right? And I heard Adam Jones talking last night. And I thought he was on point. Adam was just crushing it last night, mainly because I agree with most of the points he was making. So that's why I would say that. But to me, you know, you can sit there and you look back at the, you know, he didn't want to give Bell Belichick credit for drafting Mac Jones. And I got some people worked up. Well, because it was looked at as more of a, and I'm using air quotes here, a collaborative effort, right? Correct. Correct. And I thought then, and so I think now, I'm not going to change how I felt then as to now,
