Hey, what's up everybody. Welcome into Tom Caron's Patriots Talk podcast. Compressed week, Patriots Jets

Thursday night. So we're just going to allude to the Patriots

big win in Tampa. We're going to take a 30,000 foot view, and then we're going to get into

the Jets. Where are the Patriots heads at on this particular day? Like, if you learned anything

about the short week, either a player or a coach, that kind of gives you an idea of what's best

for your team, whereas is each point different?

I mean, I think you just, instead of just running around here telling everybody it's Thursday, that's about it, it's about all you can do.

And I've tried to do that to the best of my ability so far today. Just try to get physically recovered the best that we can, you know, tough game on the road.

So we'll try to do that and then just keep reminding everybody it's Thursday.

So short week, we're going to take a wider look at the Patriots after 10 games

and where they are headed as they dive into this game with the Jets.

And we look ahead because we can.

Okay?

A lot of people talking about, don't get too far ahead of yourself here, but we're going to get too far ahead of ourselves. Right here, take a look at this. This is the AFC conference standings. You see the Patriots at 8 and 2, the Colts at 8 and 2. They are side by each. The Patriots really with a much more impressive win than the Colts win in Germany,

where they came back to win at the buzzer in overtime.

You look at that, and then the Patriots' upcoming schedule. Baltimore, obviously, an issue. Bills could be an issue, but they are banged up to a fare thee well.

The Jets on Thursday. the Jets again later on,

the dolphins who stink regardless of what they did to the banged-up bills.

Phil, Patriots at 8 and 2 are probably playing better than any team in the American football conference.

They haven't laid an egg yet, so this is real.

This is not smoke and mirrors.

National pundits, even if they want to temper their expectations, we're getting the ground-level view.
