Tom Curran's Patriots Talk Podcast is presented by FanDuel Sportsbook. Make Every Moment More.

Hey, what's up, everybody? Welcome into Tom Curran's Patriots Talk podcast. We are going to speak

with Fox Sports's Colin Cow coward in just a little bit.

Get the national perspective on the Patriots and Bill Belichick. But first, let's get a little reality check from some of the divisional opponents.

And then the defense holding their offense to a field goal before the half and then the offense

making the plays to go down the field.

I think those are the biggest points in the game.

And it was probably, you know, you go and look at the tape.

And I told the guys in the locker room that they're going to feel like it didn't need to be a nail biter.

And that happens a ton.

You're fortunate to get the win in that learning process of how to make sure that that's not the case.

All right.

It's a little bit of a reality check there.

Meanwhile, here's Laverneus Coles, former Jets receiver and Wayne Krabet,

another former Jets receiver.

They do a podcast on the 33rd team.

And here's how they regard the Patriots game upcoming for the Jets this Sunday.
