Blount forth. I'm going to run it right down their throat. This is Felger and Mass on 985. The Sports Hub. Let's discuss last night's pig. What did you think? That's what it was. A pig. It was a pig. They get their asses kicked. To me, the, you know, the big thing was at the line of scrimmage, both sides.

0:21.5

I get absolutely freaking dominated at the line of scrimmage, both sides.

0:26.6

And, you know, the thing that struck me beyond that part of it was life without

0:34.2

Gronk and Edelman in the same game.

0:36.6

Because the number that sticks out to me in that game more than anything else,

1:23.7

use them as much as I thought they should, or at least not until late in the game.

1:29.1

And so, but they got smacked around.

1:31.1

Now, look, do I think this is, you know, I've heard different, different sort of assessments of this game today.

1:37.6

Like, you know, talk about Brady, talk about the big picture.

1:41.8

I don't make any of those jumps.

1:43.8
