2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

( 1:16:22 )

The Patriots head to Houston Texas and the site of the 2003 Super Bowl to face the expansion Texans for the first time in their history. But what's that sound? Is that the sound of a trap (game) snapping shut? Join Andy and Steve as Andy remembers this game for the hangover he watched it with, and Steve continues to remember absolutely nothing about the 2003 season.

Notes:

Here's the game link in case you'd like to watch the game or the highlights.
The injury situation was bad, but it gave us some good trivia answer WRs in this game.
Local Texas boy Josh Beckett made an appearance after winning his (first) World Series.
The Texans hadn't played well after a win. And it would take them a while to even string two Ws together.

Episode Transcript

This is Christine Brown, and while I have to listen to this podcast as my motherly duty,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

you have the choice not to.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

My sons sometimes say some naughty things when they're trying to be funny, but really,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

they're just being stupid.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You still want to listen?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Go right ahead.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I am not your mother.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Welcome back to Peter's Dansy Firecasts.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I'm your host, Danny Brown with me today's middle brother who gets no respect Steve Brown. Steve. Are you feeling respected today?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, you know have I respected you enough?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You have I mean you carved out

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

15 minutes of your time tonight to come and talk to me. So that just shows how much you respect me. I do respect you

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I'm glad you're feeling respected today

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

There wasn't much respect in the game we're gonna cover

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This this evening

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

evening in

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

January in New England nice and cold

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But we're traveling back in time to November 23rd

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

2003 the Patriots are any Houston, Texas at Reliant Stadium

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

pretty brand-new and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This would be where the Super Bowl is being held this year. So getting a bit of a sneak preview spoiler alert

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But the commentators in this game could not stop gushing about this. I think they said something about how

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This was the largest like non playoff crowd to watch a football game

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, not super bowl crowd. That's what yeah, and they tendence apparently according to a pro football reference was 70,719

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, I mean it's not like college football big. We'll say it's like a hundred thousand, but that's I mean

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I wonder where that ranks nowadays. I don't care

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I actually don't wonder

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Granks on here today baby brother Greg Brown not here again. He's a bit with work or something like adult bullshit like that

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But unlike the adults that we are who are also busy with work and still doing shit. He's decided he can't join us

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That's not true. I'm not busy with work. I play working golf. So I don't do shit

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That's true, and I build the internet so I really don't you should either I

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Thanks Al Gore Jesus Christ any he invented it. I just

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Get it right Steve. That's my fault

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So the Patriots coming into this game at 8 and 2 we're facing the Texans at 4 and 6 and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Just to point out

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The Patriots would not lose another game this season the Texans would not win no the game this season they would finish

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

4 and 12

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I like broke them. No, I like they will finish 5 and 11. They'll win one more game

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Last year though there this is their second year in existence near before they went for in 12

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

not great

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

but you know there's still there's still an expansion team so

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Even though the the other two expansion teams that came before them and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Jack was in the Panthers had that early success remember they both kind of like made the playoffs the first year in existence. Yeah

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That didn't happen to Texans

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Finish 5 and 11 before fourth the last in the AFC South

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Didn't make the playoffs

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And they weren't great they actually win next week. Let's lift it up

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, well, that's the thing is

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Their wins came against like the Falcons decent teams. Yeah, they beat the Falcons who were

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

eventual Super Bowl champion or a Super Bowl runner up Carolina Panthers. Well, thanks for ruining that for me

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That was gonna be my big big reveal

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But they also beat the Bills with Drew blood so and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

One of the other AFC teams I can't remember what was do you have it there?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Falcons bills Panthers

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And the Jaguars and the Dolphins. Yes. Okay. So it's a dolphins we won in the bills

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, they'd actually beat the bills the week before they came to New England that this New England game and they took New England

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Well, we'll say it at the beginning hey, they took me to New England to overtime and end up losing 20

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It was only like four minutes left five minutes left some of that

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Uh, I don't even think it was that long left.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Maybe two minutes.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It was a.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It wasn't really close to me in time, but it was deep.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Um, so.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

All right, fuck it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Well, we'll start.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

We'll start from the end today.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The Patriots won this game on the Adam

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Vinditary 20, our field goal with 45 seconds left in overtime.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

45 45.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

45.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Is this the longest game they've ever played?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Uh, without being a tie, maybe.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I'm sure there's probably been games that.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

How many ties does Tom Brady have?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You tell me, I know.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He doesn't have any.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Bill Bellattrack has never tied a football game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So if this is this has got to be the time wise, the longest, I don't remember

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

them ever kicking a game winning field goal with 40 seconds and OT, you know,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

you've had a bunch of OT wins.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That's true.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And they even sat on this broadcast.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They had won eight straight.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yes.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But for Tom Brady's, this might be his longest ever game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I mean, if it is, then it's only by seconds, right?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, I mean, a max like 43 seconds.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So yeah, I'm pretty comfortable putting this in longest game

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

territory.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

45 seconds.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I mean, maybe not in like probably an actual time, right?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That's true.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That's true.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

One maybe is the time longest game, right?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

From like 6 p.m. Eastern to 9.30 or whatever, but this.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And as far as game time is probably the longest.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Well, they have that on Pro Football Reference.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This took three hours and 44 minutes.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- And how much should the Super Bowl take?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- I don't know, I don't have that.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

(laughs)

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Let's see if we can look it up, stat check.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Let's actually look up longest.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- No, I feel a game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Well, here is that Super Bowl 2018?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

2016.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

was it no sorry you're in 2018 you just win so many it's hard no it wasn't 28

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

god damn no it's so many of them no it was 26 and I was right the first time

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Jesus all right the length of that game was

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

is three hours and 47 minutes.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- And this is three 44.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- This is three 44.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Wow.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- And it went to 45 seconds left in overtime.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Whereas the Falcon Super Bowl went to,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

it was the first drive of overtime, wasn't it?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, Paige got the bomb, never looked back.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Tell you what listeners will save you

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

of an hour of this and just don't watch the first half.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Oh yeah, oh yeah, don't watch the first half.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

In fact,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Let's give this a score.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I want to hear what you have for a watchability score

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

out of six Lombardes.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- So I didn't know the score.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I didn't remember this game before I watched it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And I watched your first half.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And I was like, "Seltic's on, near you'll watch that."

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And then I looked at the score.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I was like, "I'll see if there's even touchdown

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

"swear to watch it."

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And I saw it was an overtime solid guard.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I watched the other half.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And then I started playing it and I saw it as like another,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

you know, as an extra first half as an hour,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

a second half as an hour and a half.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I was like, "Jesus."

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yeah, this is a big commitment this week

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

to forge this game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yeah, more you can guess me going out and out

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and just cut out the other shit.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- I mean, you could probably start

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

in the fourth quarter, if you want to be honest.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Sure, yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- I mean, so I mean, first quarter, nothing happens.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The Texas score field goal off of like,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

An actual legit drive was the only legit drive of the whole thing for Tony Banks and the Texans. Yeah, Tony. Yeah

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So actually yeah before we dive right in I actually want to talk about the Texans

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

because this was the

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

David car era

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

the David car King of Saxe

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

because in the one two three four five years he was with

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

the

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Texans he had. Yeah, it's not David cars fault. Okay, I

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

ever think everyone. No, I'm not I'm not saying it is. But with

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

the Texans, he was sacked. Well, I mean, the King. He's the

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

poor sap of sacks. Well, the fact that he was able to rack up

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

so many so quickly.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

There are lines trash, there was no names on the online I'd

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

never heard of. In the five years he's with Houston, he had 249 sacks. He was sacked that

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

many times. He didn't have them. He was he was the victim of 249 sacks.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, of course. Savvy sack. And this was the only year he didn't get sacked. Actually,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

let's say this, out of those, this is the only year he didn't get sacked more than 40 times.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Well, he wasn't even playing and he's injured in this game. Right. He's the only God damn much

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

he only lasted 11 games, but in those 11 games, he was only sacked 15 times where in 2002,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

he was sacked 76 times in one season, which let's do the math real quick 76 divided by 16.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He was sacked 4.4 and 3/4 sacks per game. He was sacked almost five times a game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And then this year was 15 because he didn't last the season. And then 49 year after that,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

68 to the year after that, and then 41 before he finally left Houston. After he left Houston,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

he never started a full season, but he also never got sacked more than 13 times in the season.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That being true, Tom Brady took four sacks in this game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Um, thanks took three.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, Dave, a car was exact once.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, it's in the car to zero.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, because he'd been hurt the week before.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Tom Brady, he was getting beaten up.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He was.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, this Tom capers defense, I think, was legit.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It was the Steve Martin revenge game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Is that the same Steve Martin?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yes, it is the same.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He played out of his mind.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He was crushing it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, so mad at bell check.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He's he had like to the sacks or something.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Something like yeah, he a bunch of disruptive blazer.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He was all over the field.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He showed up in this game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, because there was another banks on there in their defense and both of them.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Oh, Martin's rather both of them.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He didn't recognize some guys on the enemy.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Aaron Glenn, I guess the cornerback is the only one that I had actually heard of.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

True.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Marlon McCree was on this this team who I will recognize.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But like this is like backside, right?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

because didn't they form the expansion teams by just picking a bunch of players off the rosters?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Because the announcements kept like, "Hey, I'm formally up this team and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

formally up that team and formally up this team." Yeah, so basically it was,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I think you could protect a certain amount of players, but then the new team would get to choose

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

a certain amount of players off of your team. But yeah, no real names on this defense.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

their leaders on defense. A cornerback Marcus Coleman had seven interceptions and 22 pass

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

defense, which pretty good. Jamie Sharper, who I don't think I recognize, had four sacks

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

on the team. But listen to four sacks. This is a linebacker. Four sacks, 166 combined

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

tackles, 107 solo. That's a lot of tackles. Yeah. They're other linebacker, 136 combined

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

tackles 101 solo.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The offense can stand the field.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That's what it is.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They just end and a defense couldn't get off the field.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Because I think I had some sick receivers though.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They did, but they didn't.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I guess they didn't have an offensive line or time to throw

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

because they finished.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

28th in the league in points four and 27th in the league in points against.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I mean, Andre Johnson's rookie year.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And I mean, Jabar Gaffney's, I feel, not that old at this point.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Right.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This is a second year.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This is a second year.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So yeah, we'll see.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Johnson Gaffney, those receivers are legit.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Andre Johnson was rookie this year, picked third overall from Miami.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I mean, you can't at least fall their first picks.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I mean, David Carr, I think was the consensus number one overall quarterback.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That's something like that.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And then second year, I mean,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

hundred Johnson is VC is probably the best player in Texans history.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, if he's not, he's up there.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I think he's got to be.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I mean, you would think Watson, maybe

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

but when Watson's done, he definitely will be.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He doesn't get traded and Hopkins too.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

For the, yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Well, Hopkins had a chance that now he got traded.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Well, I think on, on Johnson's biggest claim to fame is beating the

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

shit out of, uh, what's his name?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The cornerback from Tennessee.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

No, maybe it should be being really good and then not getting traded.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I'm Trell roll. I think that's who that big beef was. I was it. I feel like it was. I

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

know someone like that. I remember that though. Yeah. Stat check.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Stealing.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Courtland Finnegan. That's who it was. The man with two Irish first names. Who's talking

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

about Irish savers in this game though? Wait, we had some? Dude, yeah, we had some. It's the one that

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I'd never even thought I had one of them.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I had to take a snapchat of some of my friends

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

was like, is this for real?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Is this real life?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- So we've talked about that.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, the injuries on this season

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

are fucking out of control.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The Patriots they said in this game have now

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

had 42 different starters on offensive defense.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The last teams to have led the league in starters,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

like overall, none of them finished over 500.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

most of them finish with like two or three wins.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yeah, and it was all in the defense

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and actually they're all back now pretty much.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yeah, but now the offense is barren.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Now the wide of seniors just getting worked.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- David Patton is on IR, which did we know that?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Did we know he was out for the season?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- No, I didn't think that, I mean,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

they dropped a real casual.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- They did, yeah, but I think that's a more recent development.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I don't remember hearing that up until this game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

David Givens is out, Troy Brown is out.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

which left.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Bethel Johnson.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Who had a bird head best game as a pro.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Had his first career touchdown in this game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He's a game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And Daniel Graham who started the game with three consecutive dropped passes.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I felt like more.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Sure did.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But Brady kept going back him because he had nobody else.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Did Dion out there.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So Tom Brady, I wrote this down too, was throwing to guys like Dietrich Ward.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, the Dietrich Ward was the first one that I was like, "Hmm?"

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And the comment is what we're even like, like, "No, this isn't pre-seasoned,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

but yes, you are seeing a wide receiver with number 17 out there is Dietrich Ward."

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, I mean, you had some decent seasons with the Jets.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Long time before this, I think.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

No, not even 2,000.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Three years before you 54 catches 800 yards. Yeah, and then what? Nobody doing 2001 2002

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

200 yards 172

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Right, but the other name was even better 106 yards. Oh

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and a t.d.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

On the Patriots what yes, t-t-t-word you get the touchdown later this is a hell yeah. All right

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

All right, and then the other big name the biggest name the biggest name. This is the one you snapchat

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Isn't it yes was JJ Stokes

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

former first round pick of the 49ers who even ran out

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But yeah, so both of those those guys caught passes from Tom Brady in this game and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It was as bad as it sounds really

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

offense

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

but

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This is the perfect point for me to point out that early Dynasty MVP Troy Brown.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I thought it was Kevin Falk. That's what he meant. I just have Troy Brown in the mind because he's

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

injured and I miss him. But Kevin Falk, early Dynasty MVP, Kevin Falk, leading rusher and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

receiver in this game. Yeah, he was just like similar though to Graham, like early. He was just a

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

of beneficiary of ain't nobody else out there.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I'm just a limited.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But he ran for 80 of their 128 total rushing yards.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So almost 60, almost two thirds.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So done at this point.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It's hard to watch.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Oh, yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And they even have Mike Cloud in here running a couple times and he just.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He's not bad.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He didn't do anything though.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He's not like his buddy first debuted, which I was all about Mike Cloud.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And he touched on his own though.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

cloud, uh, two carries eight yards, you know, whatever, long as

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

the five, and then one catch for a

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

three. Didn't any jobs use five? Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And Antoine, because I need to

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

spread an Antoine. Yeah. But then then, uh, K fog also had 108

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

receiving errors as well, which was a

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

third of the teams. And he had a, uh, crucial like penalty on

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

third down on the wheel route, maybe the linebacker and he had

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

to hold him at the line. Mm hmm. Yep. And he actually had

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

another big screen call back to that went for like 20. Oh, yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So he had himself a day. And that's because, like you said, there was

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

literally nobody left. But the defense is starting to come into

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

form that you remember from this, this era that 2003 2004 defense

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

that was basically impenetrable. And it started kind of early, didn't

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

it because they said Tony Banks had like seven yards passing or something.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It wasn't great.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, but

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Nicholas and low stat.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I mean, what is Tony Banks finished 10 of 25 for 93 yards, two touchdowns

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and interception and three sacks.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He that's a rough day.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The rating of 60.9.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So as bad as Brady's day was it Brady had a bad day too.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

their offense didn't even gain 170 yards total. They have 169.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, then the Patriots on the other hand had 472 total offensive yards.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And only put up 20 points like that. The numbers were stacked on the page's favor.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They had like offensive plays was something they showed that to.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And it felt similar to the Falcon Super Bowl where they had like 85 offensive plays,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

but just like kept turning the ball over and shit three times. Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I think all of them were Brady's fault. Oh, yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Because they had the two interceptions. Every single one. And then Brady got hit

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

as he threw and like, oh, he was getting dragged to the ground, tried to throw it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And he like, it fell out backwards out of his hand. Now's return. But again,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I had ourselves here. Yeah. So lucky to

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

honest turnovers. But yeah, we'll get there. Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But yeah, so the, the, basically the first quarter was just one drive,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

a surrounded by some three and outs and it was a Texans try like there.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They're starting to pull out all the stops in the first quarter.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They tried to flee flicker that didn't work because the page,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

it's defensive back didn't bite on it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Um, but then they get that path interference that brings them to New England 15.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And then they tried another trick play where they did like a.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They toss it to Gaffney, but it was technically like a throw behind.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Growing and he went to the back of the house.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And they covered it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah. And so he rear back, he was going to throw and there was nothing.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So he talked it down and ran for a 15 yard down to like inside the one thing.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Gaffney that ends up playing in 2017. Correct.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This is that same Gaffney.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

No, I mean, he has six.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I think it was even better if you remember from 2007, it was like that,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

but like faster and more shifty.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

he had a signal on there.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Oh, yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

No, he was a--

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

he was an elusive fellow.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But so he takes it down to the 1.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And so they have first in goal from-- even inside the 1,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I'd say.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And from there, they go 3 and out,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

doing the defense in Ted Washington.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

There was a quote here, Randy Cross and Kevin Harlan

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

in this one, his commentators, which--

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Definitely not the A team, but that's fine.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I think it was Rainey crosses the color guy and he was talking about Richard Seymour and how big of a man he was and Ted Washington's back at this point.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So he said, talk about Seymour as a man.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Ted Washington is a man and a half.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Just ridiculous.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They were pretty on on this game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I was not a fan of.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I did not.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But yeah, just like and they were they were wrong like Ted Washington

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Anybody that can make

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Richard Seymour look small

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Is a fucking huge human being and Ted Washington's that team him being back their run defense short right the fuck up

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, oh yeah immediately

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Especially on especially on this this goal line stand where they basically the the text go three and out from the goal line running at three

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Times no, they ran it twice up the middle

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

the Greg's favorite route on third. Yeah, through the fade route to Andre Johnson and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

tie law covered it and then basically T bags.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Andre Johnson, he should have got a taunting pound.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You definitely know, check very mad about that. Yeah, not happy.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I believe no Jack was like, you're so fucking lucky because I would have given the first

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

that would have given me four downs because that was on third down to that.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You were getting off the field and you felt the had to be such a dickhead.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You had to fucking stand over with your balls and he's waggling your finger at him.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He did legit did that in the commentary like that should have been a

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

topic.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And I thought, yeah, sure.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, it should have, but it wasn't.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So, um,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

big Texans.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Huh?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I just played that perfect.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It was, yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It was the perfect throw too, but yeah, great ball.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yep.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Tyloges knocked the hands down right the last second as Andrew Johnson got his hands on the football.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So they start off a field goal.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That's the first quarter.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Um, second quarter, Brady says, fuck it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and just drives the team down the field immediately.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And then hits Bethel Johnson for 27 year touchdown.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Bethel Johnson's first ever as a...

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Dude, he looks for you.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But Bethel Johnson never really could do is break tackles.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And he was breaking tackles left and right in this game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- He wasn't bad, yeah, he was running routes

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and everything too.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yeah, he ran like a nice corner route,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

broke the tackle and then he's gone.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yeah, you can see that on now.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- I'd say Brady was too, they on the replay.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Oh yeah, he was the first one down there to congratulate.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I think it goes four yards and jumped right.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And do that.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You don't do that no more.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He does.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Just not for us.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

No, I'm going to see him getting like, I don't know.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Like I haven't even watched all the bucks game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So I don't know if you like.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Well, I'm working on new projects.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So I had to grab all of the touch sounds he's thrown as a buck in the air.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And he does that.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Why are you grabbing?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You know, I don't know.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

When it's done, I'll not count it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

down to, but yeah, he still does it. I'm not whatever, whatever is done, I'm not gonna watch it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Well, we'll see. We'll see. Yeah. So Brady, so we throw this touchdown,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

paths are up, seven, three, and then Texas go three and out, Brady immediately drives

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

them right back down the field again. They get inside the Texans 20, and then this is

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This is fucking ridiculous. Brady gets picked off, throws an interception on, I think it

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

was on third down. Throws an inception basically on the goal line to one of their linebackers.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I felt like it was even worse decision than that of him forcing it. He had like half tackle

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

these on the five yard line. Yeah, he's a, yeah. Everybody's packed in there. He just

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

tries to throw it in like three Texans converge in one piece of loss. And I guess picked off.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But as he starts returning it, Bethel Johnson comes and punches the ball out. And then the

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

the page to recover. I think 4A jumped on it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So the page is actually advanced like 10 yards.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So now they're on like the five yard line.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But then you set it down.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Exactly.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Because that's what happens when you fumbled and then refundable it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And the only reason I knew I knew that rule was when we used to play like Madden

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

or whatever those games were and turn the fumbles all the way up.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So every play had three fumbles in it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And every play was always the first down because you would fumble it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And the other team would pick it up return and they would fumble it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and they're just back and forth.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- That makes sense, yep.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So I remember that rule from--

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Oh no, there's a real roller coaster to play.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So the Patriots have like first goal from the five.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And I think it's like an immediate false start

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

'cause this is the season where they almost

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

lead the league in penalties.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I think they're third at this point.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- They're just like eight and a half per game

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

or something ridiculous.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So on Patriot like, so I do that.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And then Brady ends up like running it twice,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

which is not good for your offense.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Brady's trying to run it. He puts in the same situation again and he throws it away.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah. But then, so they settle for field goal. And at this point, the commentators are

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

on Vinotary's nuts, like dangling off with their lips.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They actually had a trial. Stop blaming these commentators because every fucking single

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

commentator said this for about three years. Oh, out of Vinotary's never missed me. Don't

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

makes it a done the goddamn Super Bowl.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I can kind of jinx them.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So they finally fucking worked.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, here it is.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Go.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Why the super position?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Is that a military who has never missed in his career in a

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

gone 21 year old?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And it is cool.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Cool.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So why why are we playing that, Steve?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Why are we sharing a fucking 21 year field goal in the

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

commentators and audit?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Because later he misses one

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Okay, I mean, that's why I say it he misses one of you know half

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So all right well

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, we had a very the lead but cool so they so they talk about that about how he's never missed inside the dome

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He hasn't he's made 11 of his last 12 field goals

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They mentioned twice actually throw up another graphic on it and they're talking about you like like they were

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Constantly talking about Adam in a terrible. He never fucking misses

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

My point is that happens all the time. Every time he kicks in the dome, but this was like

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

aggressive one of the Super Bowl kicking in a dome

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They said I'm two years ago positive

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They said that in the Super Bowl against the ramp. They had that same fucking stat. This is the same stat just updated

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I don't I don't think it did because well

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Maybe they did

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So yeah, I'll be an answer to say that and now's and my note is finally they will stop talking about indoor field goals

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And now you can just fuck up about it because everyone was saying and I was sick of hearing him. I already know that I watch every

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Beat just came to that one, you know, we'll get some more of it too. But yes,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, a lot of inventory talking this

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

All right, I'm gonna get off that before I go on a rant

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I thought the I thought they were great. So he kicks a field goal. Pats up 10 3 and then

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Nothing else happens except the Patriots right at the end of the half end up driving to the Texans 20

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And Vinotary who has never missed Steve

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I don't know if you know this but he's never missed indoors ever and because they've closed the roof because it was raining and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Houston this is technically indoors, so he's never missed inside a dome

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Doints it off the the right upright

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So I'm thinking I'm actually glad for him to miss that.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So commentators were sneaky.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They had great points and they said, you know, there's hidden points there where

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

the Texans had first and goal in the one and they got three points.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I said, that's four points.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You're going to miss and I missed it later and get the field goal.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Misses that you're going to miss with points.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So all right.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Let's talk about these.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

These guys, Randy, Randy Cross and Kevin Harlan.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So obviously not your, your A team, right?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But they.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

There's a couple of things that bother me as there tends to be.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They were, I don't say like learn a new trick or they were like told to do this,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

but they loved telling you what the defensive alignment was.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I don't know.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Patriots out in a three, four.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Oh, oh, yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I mean, Patriots out in a four or six, but they said if they're the, they're,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

they're playing dime or nickel, you know, they said five defensive backs for

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Texans.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So you know, yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But they didn't like use that information for anything useful.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They just like told you.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Because if you're a good old, maybe that means the Texans are expecting past, you know,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

but they didn't even do that though.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They just they're like, oh, and the Texans come out in a three, four.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I was like, well, but that was it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I guess some of us here, Andy are smart enough to know.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I didn't know.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But and like at times he was like, oh, that then they only have two down.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The Texans only have two down linemen.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Like that's cool.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Like expand on it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Or these are the only two teams in the whole league playing the free for.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So he's, you know, making a comment on how these two defenses are some of the

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

only two in the league and stroke a luck.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Who's coaching this team?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Don capers who ends up, you know, playing a coach with the Patriots.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Oh, yeah, it does.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That's right.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Good.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Cool.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Unlike their defensive coordinator, Vic Fangio, who's a current

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Broncos head coach.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I did not use a DC.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yep. And he's not doing great as a head coach, whether or not it's the Bronco situation or him.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Let's claim they're on our way. They're 12 and 20 in his two years there, which is a 375 wind

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

percentage for those of you keeping those. Do you better his first two years in? No. No.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

No. No. He's he's improving. It's from the Fence Aquina first in to head coach first in.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It's about the same.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, but they were also talking about how Givens out and he had scored an overtime touchdown against the Broncos or something.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Which I don't.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He just mixed up the games.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He was talking about the Miami game, maybe.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Well, that's like, oh, yeah, he caught a touchdown in over time against Miami.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I'm like, well, no, I was trying to brag.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He's like, no, actually no.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Give us caught the overtime touchdown against the Broncos.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I know.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They haven't been in overtime against the Broncos since whatever he's that was game was intense.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You know, it felt like an overtime game with the fake with the intentional, you know, safety and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

yeah, I guess, but had the had the drama intensity of overtime.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I don't know.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But and lastly on commentate, shooting on the commentators section of the podcast by Andy Brown.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I believe it was Randy Cross is talking about the the Patriots biggest problem was that they had

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

so many starters that they will dilute their own pro ball votes.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So they won't have anybody go to the pro ball because they've had so many

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

starters, like the tie law probably gets a vote.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So Rodney Harris all gets on.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It's all stats.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And he liked how they operated as a team.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

No, okay.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That's which is true.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Okay.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Great little bit of commentating.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He said this screen game, how many reception yards and give them fall cap?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He's like, it is the deodorant for this Patriots offense.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You know, because they stunk out loud and the whole offense stunk out loud except for Kevin

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Folk your early season MVP. Early dynasty MVP. They're rushing in receiving because he's

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

right. Did the rest of the offense did stink? Well, they did not deserve to win this game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I want to say that right now. Yeah. They had so many penalties. They're so shit. Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And even like their typical score, both sides of the half, which they were kind of set up to do,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Vinditary hits the upright at the end of the half, and then they get the ball coming out of half time,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

drive down to the Texas 35, and go for it on fourth, right?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, it's fourth and five. And I don't know if they just like didn't trust that,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

like if there was something going on with them or what, but like, man, it's kind of out of his

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

rate it was longer like what 50 yard air. Yeah, it was 50 plus I think Adam hits those.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And your commentators your boys there like oh Adam Benatari is like money from 50 plus

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

it's got as long as the 57 so there should be a chip shop for him. And then the page like now

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

when he's gonna go from fourth and five and then getting down. Nope.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Grant should have had it. Why would you go in the offense kind of you know,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

let's don't. There's no big plays really. There's the one that whole couple late late you know.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Well, and even on that play, they took a deep shot too, which almost made me think of like,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

they were fine with giving up that field position because their defense was so good.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And the Texans had done literally nothing so far in the first half. And it worked out because

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Texans only from the 34 got to about midfield before they had to punt. And they actually pointed

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

out. I'll give you this point. They pointed out that the Patriots were actually doing

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

a little bit of the zero blitz that we'd seen work more recently than what they call themselves.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But it didn't work. Oh, in the Jets, the scene goes Donald. Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Quite the same, but yeah. But it was that defense versus the zero blitz. They had no strong say,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

but it was also the blitz that bit the Cowboys in the ass last week against the Patriots where

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The only place the Patriots actually got yards off of where the Cowboys did that zero blitz.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So I don't know if that was like Belichick.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Definitely. - Give it a big old middle finger to

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Bill Piers. - Well, you can go, Bill.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- And Blitz like inexperienced Tony Banks, which is an inexperienced

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

hundred for his career. So this would be the last time it'd be 500, right?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Oh, sure. Because he'll never, because he goes on his massive win streak and he'll never lose that

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

many in a row. So not only was he 500, but he was 69 and 69. Oh, nice. So yeah, I mean, you can

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

watch this game just for that if you want. Yeah. What was the timestamp when that stack comes up

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

in? Good question. Did I screenshot it? I don't think I did. I'll have to go back and find it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It's not the highlights on the website.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That's true.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It should be.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It should definitely be.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Right after that, the possession though, Tom Brady throws a stupid pick.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, he does.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It turned it to R29.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So like if the Patriots added and just played like a bunch of assholes, it would have won

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

this game easily, but they just turned it over at terrible times.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yep.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That's so lucky.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Don't pile these kill drives and just let the Texans hang around and actually take a

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

a pretty good lead.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Right. So instead of like putting the game away there, like the each side of the half

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

scoring a couple points in the middle there and being up by a couple of scores because

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

they went into the halftime 10-3. It could have been 13-3 and then like score again on

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

the second half and now you're up by two scores. Instead, Brady gets picked off. Texan

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

start at the Patriots 11. I think it was like two plays later on to Johnson had to

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

touchdown. So now it's tie game 1010.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And pretty good about themselves.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Right. But then Brady in true Brady fashion gets the ball back and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

meet his storms right down the field again in like fuck you mode.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This is where he hits JJ Stokes to get it inside the 10 yard line.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Everyone yard bomb. Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That was your JJ Stokes.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Snapchat sighting. Yeah. Of the game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And so going into like break it sack on third down the last play the third quarter.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So fourth quarter starts with the Vinitary hitting a short field goal, which he actually makes

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

so off the Schneider again kind of

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And now we're in the fourth quarter and this is where shit just kind of goes a little wild

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

because it's

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It was 10 10 at the end of the third and this game ends 23 20

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

In overtime right in overtime right so and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Vinitary's just kick the field goal to make it 13 10 just get to this quarter

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You know, you don't need to see that's what I'm saying. So skip to the fourth quarter. We've talked you through all of it

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, just you should we should mark what time that starts so just get the video and start it in

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, should I last like 45 minutes?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Probably is yeah just start at the second half

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But yeah, and the game is on YouTube so you can find on the website

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I'll post a link in the show notes to the website so you can find all this stuff

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I thought it was Dynasty.info.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- That's right.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Where I used to think it was,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I don't know why I thought this when you first started

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

this website, I thought it was Dynasty.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- It is.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Like, nasty in all caps,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

like you didn't say Dynasty,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

it was like the Patriot Dynasty.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It was nasty.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- We put the nasty in the Dynasty.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

(laughs)

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- I don't know why, I thought they were for a good year.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- I bet you did.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Well, I mean, it is because you can't read probably, so.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yes, she's a science scientist.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- You didn't read what you wanted, right?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- I was down in that out.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

(laughing)

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Oh boy, Steven.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

(sighing)

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

How long did it take you to learn how to spell your name?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

'Cause it got the PH in there, it probably wasn't easy.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Mm, I don't know.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They tried to hold me back in first grade,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and mom said no.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

(laughing)

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Scared you for life.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- True story, yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

'Cause you had to pop the teachers and say,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

"You're not holding them back."

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You can't even read.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

She's like

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Back so and then I went on a second grade damn good. I'll be very convincing Andy. You know that

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This is true. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I have nothing to add

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

British accent people are like oh, you're so charming and convincing mm-hmm

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yep, no, she convinced a lot of people do a lot of things. I won't give you a speeding ticket

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, oh, you shoot well. That's because she used to cry or pretend to cry when she got pulled over

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And being British you doing like 80 on the back roads and her for a little fucking z4

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Jesus some people

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I wonder what she's yelling at the radio right now cuz I know she's listening to this

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

She's probably quilting she's getting off fire not

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

She's go. Yeah, I'll get I'll get the text. Well, we'll we'll read it next next week

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So let's get into the fake tuck rule cuz that's the next big play here. It is yeah

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, because, yeah, the Patriots hit the field goal to start the quarter and then Texas

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

immediately go three and out and punt it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And so New England again drives straight down the field.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Like David, like Brady tries a, he did this a couple times again, but he tried a QB sneak

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

on third and like five.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And the last time you got picked up seven and this time he picked up four, so it's three.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So it's fourth and two and then they'll just run it straight down the Texans throat with

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Kevin Falk who picks up.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- No, that's not just me.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Like they're just getting big chunk places.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Three yards, 12 yards, three yards, two yards,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

three yards, four yards, seven again.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- That's kind of what it is then.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Like the penis conference is just like barely

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

springing it together, you know?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- But it kind of felt inevitable too.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Like they're just picking up steam and just--

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Only because the Texans offense

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

was absolutely hot garbage.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Hot, it was a dozen--

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- As it had to meant for art turnovers,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

they would have like zero points.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Right, yeah, oh yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- They haven't been able to actually do anything,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

maybe get a field goal, but because we've been keeping them in the game, they've been

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

just taking advantage of being capitalizing when they've been given some turnover.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Which I think the commentators were kind of alluding to that's kind of how this team

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

was running.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, on the top game, which is true.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And they were next week, we've got the Colts, who are also like 18-0, whatever.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But they were, yeah, because they were just like hanging with teams because they're good

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

defense and then try to capitalize on the mistakes. And the

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Patriots made plenty of those.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Which is kind of a Patriot strategy anyways. Yeah. And I

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

think what this past season, after one of these after one of

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

these touchdowns, or was one of his touchdowns passes every three

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

games and you win it. Yeah, yeah, exactly. But after one of

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

these touchdowns, they even said, come here like, I don't know

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

what that noise is, it's either fireworks or so sound of the

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

trap snapping shot on the Patriots leg.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They talk about it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Oh, God.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Well, I love that one.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Good.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You would.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Which I know exactly when they say that it's coming up.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Tom Brady fumbles it again.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Throws backwards.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They were almost able to talk rule, but they weren't because the

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

tuck rule still in effect.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Sure is, but instead he actually threw it backwards.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So it was actually a very similar looking play to the snowball.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Unseen linebacker coming out the edge and just.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, so this guy was from his blind side, but yes.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And so yeah, they had just converted the fourth into

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and they're like inside Texans territory.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And Brady gets hit from behind,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

literally fumbles the ball backwards

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

as if he's like threw it backwards.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And one of the Texans linebackers picks it up

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

on the full sprint and gets down to--

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- It's using 36.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Humbles it on 35, they take it all the way.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- To New England's 31.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah. And so starting there, they would eventually convert one of their few third downs because

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Texans, this I did take a screenshot off. Houston Texans on the season were converting

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

third downs at 33.3%. Not great. Andre Johnson. I mean, and they were two. They were two of

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

nine on the game until this Andre Johnson third and nine conversion. He had a tough first

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

half, but he picked up in the second half, which is, I mean, this is game, what, 10 for him or whatever it is.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, 12 or whatever. I think we're on week 12.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

As a pro, he's getting covered by Tai Law.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Right.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Something that shit out of him, he doesn't convert to the truth.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But the actually even like before the game started, they were talking about, oh, we talked to Tai Law.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And yeah, he's hurt, but usually he would cover the, like the leading wide receiver and just like follow him across the field wherever he goes.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But they're so happy with Tyrone Poole in the way he's covering that

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Tyla is just going to play one side of field.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And if AJ goes the other side, he's just going to be covered by

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Tyla.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You try to go after him to Tyrone Poole played really well.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Tyrone Poole had himself a game in this game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He similar to like the Steph Jacksonville, AFC Championship.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, Gilmoury.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But it was kind of over his head more and not like a dive out.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It was a very similar play.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And and he's been doing that for the past few weeks in a row now.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Like they keep targeting him on the deep ball and he covers it textbook every time.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He's in the receivers back pocket and as the ball gets there, tips it away.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It doesn't go over your side.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Just just tips it away.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Well, I remember I'll say that.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Tyrone Pooley, he's like, you could almost call him a shut down corner this year.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He's not allowed anything.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It was like the early Brandon Browner days, but he wasn't as physical, obviously.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah. Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But having that like solid number two

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and one and two are both sweet.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yep, exactly.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And so he's better than, like he can easily cover

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

the number two wide receiver on any offense, basically.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Andre Johnson had 13 targets, four catches.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

37 yards and a touchdown.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Wait, how many targets?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- 13.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yeah, that's the next tie us on their team was three

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and then a couple of guys at two.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Holy shit, yeah, he had--

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- I think we're gaffing only at one.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- I love it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- I only throw in once the Jabar gaffing, that's it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- They threw it 13 times at Andre Johnson.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- And threw it 12 times, not at Andre Johnson.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

(laughs)

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And he had four catches for 37 yards in the touchdown.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yeah, I mean, but like he got that big touchdown

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

in that big moment.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- That's true.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- You had a good second half and I even--

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yeah, I mean, for what their anemic offense was,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

he was the only one doing anything.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He was there.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Kevin fall basically.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This was that touchdown after the Tom Brady Fumbler.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They're tied in Miller.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You don't know his first name.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Billy Miller.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Whoa, rough name.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That was bad parenting.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Rimming your kids names.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Billy, Billy, Roshan Miller.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

What?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Okay.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

A long time tight end.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Played.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Quite a few.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

much at this point doing everything because he was so wide open that that's the one where

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Ronnie Ayers and slips and like dude had no defender within 10 yards of him.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Oh yeah, it's super open because yeah like he said Ronnie Ayers and fell on this.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And I wrote they're doing everything we can to lose this game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Well, every thing again. Yep. It was in 10 from 16. And not only that, yeah, not only that is,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

they do that, right? They allow the touchdown off of Brady's fumble. Get the ball back,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

immediately go three and out and then they had their punt blocked.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So Texas started again on the New England 20 yard line.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You're like, what the fuck?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Cause I just, I don't even think I've said this yet, but tried to have Ryan's

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

story on today because you know, if you listen every week, you remember, we had

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

a man for a loss because like we only watched shitty games together.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And every game we watched together, the Patriots either lose in terrible fashion.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And this was the one game we've watched where they won.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And when I was talking to him, he's like, Oh, yeah, remember that.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

they lost that game, didn't they? And then he looked at it,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

like, Oh, wait, they, they won that game. I don't even remember

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

feeling that good. Like it didn't because it sucked. They tried

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

their hardest to lose this game. Well, even on that three and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

out with the punt block, Tom Brady fumbles and gets it back.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Or down. No, I think he fumbled it on second down and got sacked

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

on third down. So something that it was it. The drive was an

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

absolute trap. Whatever it was.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The third down and five and some fumbles of snap.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Oh, okay. Yeah. Then they get the punt blocked and bell check, you cut the bell check and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

he looks so fucking mad. He's slivered. Because it's first and 10 on our 20. Yeah. And after

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

they just go to touchdown. Right. And you're already down to touchdown. Yeah. A minute

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

later, two minutes later. Yeah. So it's, oh, no, you're down four because you're down 17,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

13th at this point. So Texas, the Texans start there in the 20 and just immediately

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

three and out because the defense just fucking nuts up and says, no, we're just not having this.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Really, really started looking taken over at this. Yeah. So that's that's their second like

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

huge red zone stop apart from the goal line one at the beginning of the game. And now this one,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and it's just like this defense like, you know what? No, we're going to drag you through this.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

We're going to make you going to give you one one last chance. The Texans settle for field goal.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And there's a few minutes left.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Page to get the ball.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Like inside at the at their own 20, I want to say, because they had a good kick return,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

but that got called back for holding because the fucking course it did.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Unlike Dan Klekow of all people who three minutes, four seconds, first and 10 from your 20.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, down by a touchdown, right.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

In time out.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So it gets so it gets to a.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Third and 10 I think right. I'm doing this off top of my head and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They get a first down on their first plate and then oh, right. Yeah, good Brady's like

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

threads the needle to

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The Deon branch for one of his like two catches on the entire game wasn't even targeted really and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Then yeah first down second down just completely complete third and 10

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Like this is your drive you got a score here or else you gonna lose a game and Brady

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Run around the pocket looking like fucking Michael Vick or someone. Yeah, it's some good

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

escape ability actually. Yeah, it's some great. He like spun out of a tackle because he kind of he was backing like to his left like

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Backed into the the defensive and that came there and spun out of them

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And then kind of like ran over to the right and then back to the middle

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I think your highlights on this. Oh, I have it's good. It'll be up on the site once this goes

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I grabbed that one. Yeah, the two touchdowns on here and there's a lot more great plays like that one

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Pull that that's that's the only other good. He's a kind of hidden place

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Touchdown, but he throws that awesome ball to Daniel Graham would be an absolute

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Frap. Yeah, who actually hangs on to it great

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Get for a great release is that one. That's the one yeah, 33 yards on third down

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Tom Brady did everything to like make keep the play alive. Yeah, and he kept it alive

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And that throw was like

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, it was a missile

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So it's grand for 33 and then

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Come straight back and screen to fault for 21

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Now the pages are in business. This is their this is where their deodorant quote was I was

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, they're like dude that deodorant is the because like they're just catching them

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They've been screening them the death they have and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, and the the Texans had no answer for it whatsoever

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They're still just running straight up field and there was some good quality

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

like they were they were doing the

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They did one screen where they faked like they faked the screen to the left to fall

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And then very spun around into the screens the other side's a Patrick pass. He was playing full back

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They've always had a great screen game now. Yeah, you haven't seen it as much of late. That's true. I feel like

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But yeah back in the day their screen game was phenomenal

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

but so they get inside the

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Inside the Texans 10 yard line, right?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And it's third and five and they do a quick draw to Kevin Falk who picks up like four and three quarters.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, I think the spot was iffy, but it's fourth and one.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

From the four.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, with under a minute left.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And so they do play action Brady rolls out to his right and is like,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They called the boot leg because the naked boot it wasn't a naked

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It was the it was the give going left any boots and the and the end guy doesn't fall for it does not fall

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So Bray's like the corner back off to the corner

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He doesn't fall for it. So his tight end is covered and Brady's like running there

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, getting chased on fourth of one and like running like backwards diagonally away from the play

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You're like oh fuck. I've seen this pressure. Yeah, it was against his body to Graham

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, into double coverage and Graham just like plucks it out of the defensive backs hands as he's going to the ground

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

For the time touchdown with 40 seconds left like talk about redemption

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Man dropped his first three balls to the point where the common day was talking about how

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It's like oh have you seen little Giants where the kid who can't catch is like talking to his hands

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It's like they all Graham's gonna get to that point

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Ready I just looked it on the highlight right through the ball

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

From the 14 yard line on fourth and four running backwards. Yeah

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, I'm from four yards on the goal and see 38 team probably he threw it all the way to the back of the end zone

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So you probably threw that ball 30 yards on the run backwards. Yeah, and hit Graham in the hands who held onto this time

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Probably Graham's best touchdown ready to do so you can take those highlights and just like slow him down

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You can see him thread the needle. Yep between two defenders at the goal line and Graham just out jumps the corner back

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, the throw is exactly where I needed to be like you couldn't really put anywhere else

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Dude if rape was was in there. Yep, right. Yeah, I'm able as a first one to the

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Congressional and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Klecko was the the fullback. I think cuz they were talking about that they did hard run

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, making boot like booted it

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Ballsy and it was covered and it still worked anyway. No, that one of those brave wasn't gonna let that not work

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, which is yeah different than what we see nowadays awesome

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

one of the championship plays at a break right there.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yep.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Oh, that's what he knew, right?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It was like when all the pressure was on.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- That was best.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It's that comparison.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I mean, going back to watching Brady this week

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

as a buccaneer playing against the...

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Sure.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Aaron Rodgers' Packers and Aaron Rodgers,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

he's kind of the opposite.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Like he plays big until he gets to the big moment

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and just doesn't seem to, I don't know,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

it's not that he can't.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He just doesn't seem to make the right decision, I guess.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He just,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and Brady has that.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And no one else really made the Montana as that same, just extra gear, you know?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, that killer instinct right.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Those big moments you like if you hadn't made that third and 10 play,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

he wouldn't even have the opportunity to the fourth and one boot.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But when it's third and long and you've seen this, I mean, I can think of

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

that a bunch of plays off top of my head of like it's third and long and the

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

seasons on the line.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So or the even the games online or whatever.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And Brady completes it and like gets 17 on third and 16, you know,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

against the Jaguars and their top ranked defense.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He also gets incredibly lucky too.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Sometimes.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And he comes up in overtime.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Let's get there.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So speaking of luck, some bad luck on the page was part because the Texans win the toss.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Did you hear the?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Did you hear the off mic?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, from Tom Brady.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The Patriots, so they lost it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That was Tom Brady.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Because because he called tails, he's like, we want tails.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I want that one.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And then I think somebody on his team was like, really?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He's like, absolutely.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And then he flips it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It was heads.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He's like, fuck.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And they definitely didn't kind of wave her that quick enough.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, that was great.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So Texans received the ball first play from scrimmage.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Your boy, Tony Banks gets picked off by Mike

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

of all people and returns it to the Texans 23. This game's fucking over. Yeah, Patriots three runs up the middle. The third one is there. They're patented Tom Brady fall to the middle of the field. QB sneak to set up perfectly. So 23 yard field goal from dead smack dab in the middle of the field. And at this point, you know, I'm just talking about how the Texans has as a franchise have never blocked a field goal. Adam Vintitary has hasn't had a field goal blocks and is open to the field.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Phil Golbloxen's opening day 1998.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- So before we get there,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

pretty sure this is Mike Vable's first INT.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- No, he's had one,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- He has four this season.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- He's had one against Miami,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I think it was Brady's second start.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- It was two this season.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- The game started with an interception by Mike Vable

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and then went down from there.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- No, he had two in 2001, I'm an idiot.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I remember one of them.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But yes, so

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Inception over time first play game game over. Yes. Like oh, thank God. Let's get out of here

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You try him out there. He's only missed one field goal in a double. Yeah at this point

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Like I'm sitting at Ryan's stories after very heavy night of drinking. I'm super hungover

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I'm like let's just end this so I can go back to sleep

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Adam and Terry gets this field goal is field goal from the 23-yard line blocked

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And you're like you gotta be fucking kidding me this game is never gonna end

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I was about to turn it off. I actually didn't even know what time was left

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And I was like I'll turn it off it right off his foot

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But this helped it's on and then I blocked and I was like

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Didn't see that coming. Nope

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I should have because I saw how long the second half was I really should have like put two and two together

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I'm like my is an extra 30 minutes on this and yet

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And then from there the Texas drive like inside New England territory get to the 40 and this is like they have a good kicker -

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Talk about the the announcer's jinxing them double jinxing the block. Oh

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I did I

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, the Texas have never blocked a field goal and adding Vinotary hasn't had a field goal block

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yes in their in their history as a team. Yes and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Adam and Terry last time he had a field goal block was opening day 1998

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That's mean or 2003 so that's five years right now. They're gonna kick block in five years

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So of course, you know what happens gets blocked of course

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Because of fucking course it does and then the Texans drive to about New England 40 right and so they have a decision to make

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They this is the best their offenses looked in a while. Yeah, this is the first drive

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They put together outside the first quarter because they've done the sidelines the whole time right

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So they drive to the New England 40-yard line and they have a decision to make and their decision apparently is to punt it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yes, I thought this was the decision.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I thought this was the worst decision everybody. I got punting, playing not to lose.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Oh, so now I hate that. I hate that.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Punting from the New England 40 is such a tough look.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And we've seen that a lot against these patrons.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But like just go for it, you know, like just try to win. If you hit that, you got the win.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

get over already had possessions to you know actually didn't even count didn't even matter that point right versus go wins

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I mean they did pin New England's inside their own 10 right. Oh their strategy actually works

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, because they yeah the page oh, this is where pretty good sack doesn't it they go three and out break

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It's sacked on third down and they're putting out their own end zone. No

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

No, well whatever it's what it's around here

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They go four yards. No. Yeah, four yards. No game nine yards, Zach. They're on their 13th. Yeah. Okay. Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

No on their four. Right. And so the page is basically pun from their own end zone and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Texans do nothing.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They don't need to because like

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They already started in field goal range. They get it on the Patriots 35. Oh, that's right. Yeah, cuz Kent Wald was

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

31-yard punt. Just

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I actually looked away at that one. So I was glad I didn't see that such a bad game. I

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and kid this is a bad season for general

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

not yeah oh yeah not at this point of the season

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

we're going to see they keep saying that

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

yeah yeah these I think is

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

maybe the second worst in the league

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

if not the worst at this point he's just not good

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

but yeah so

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

the drive chart for this next drive

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

right tackle no gain left and minus five yards.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- They're back on the New England 40 again.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And what do they do?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- They go out of pool and pool makes a great,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

is Willie for tackle no gain,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Willie tackle five-yard loss.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And then Tyrone Pool makes a fantastic play

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

on third down on Andre Johnson.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But it wasn't even like they were going for the shot again.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It was like a 20 yard route.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Yep.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And like if they had picked up the five yards that they lost,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

like that's, that's a, they're in field goal range.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They can give a shot.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And instead they're back on the pages 40 yard line

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and we know from last time they didn't kick a field goal

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

from there as they put it again.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And they got a fair catch at the 14 yard line

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

for Kevin Faulk.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The pages started 14.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- One thing there again, like, I don't know, go for it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Just anything.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Let's just try something and then what happens to you?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And then it's Tom Brady time again.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Mm hmm.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So 16 yards, Kevin Falk.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Five yards to Dietrich Ward, 14 yards of Bethel Johnson, 13 yards

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

to the branch, 10 yards of Christian for you.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And now they're just running because they're inside.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This is also the best of Patriots offenses.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Like I think because the Texas defense was so tired too at this point.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They'd rent.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, they've been on the field for so long that, you know,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

it's the way to the Atlanta.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

this game has some similarities that land of Super Bowl in that eventually just they just couldn't stand to the

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Onside of Conbury and they're just yeah, and so this this drive was especially inevitable

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But the Brit it didn't end in a touchdown like it didn't as a role, but

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They get inside the 20 Kevin Falk up the middle five yards Kevin Falk on middle three yards

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And on third and two with 45 seconds left out of Vinotary

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Finally man, just connect on a 28 year field goal

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That's uh makes it through the uprights and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The Patriots escape with how many wins is a trap in a row?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Snuck out of the trap managed to shed there

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The the trap that closed on our leg one two three four five six. This is now. There's seventh win in a row

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They're nine and two first place in the AFC East and they're showing the

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Chiefs were 9-1 and we're playing again later in the day and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The Colts were also 9-2 after beating them

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

After beating the Buffalo Bills coming from behind in similar fashion

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Which is great because next week

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Spam was Indianapolis Colts. Let me touch on

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

My Brady is lucky and not Jessica and not saying it's not great. I'm saying it's great and lucky

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Touch it Steve touch it

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The second play of that overtime drive where you just said see you later

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He throws that brutally bad pick the safety comes over intercepts it

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It was just just way overthrown just an awful ball and he gets picked and there's like a no-daughter, you know, and there's that

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Holding pouty on our seat when they showed the replay of the pretty a couple times and I saw nothing there

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, it was like the softest call of all time.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And you just got so big,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

because he almost just three minutes left in overtime,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

throws a pick.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, there was, there was a few soft calls in this game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Like they, they called the Texans linebacker

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

from roughing the passer to on Brady's like game time touchdown.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You're like, that's true.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He pushed him as he threw the ball.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And today's dangerous.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It wasn't that bad.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I'm back.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This is actually kind of when it starts though.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It is. It is.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

season it's sort of when it really starts the call it's so much harder.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, absolutely.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, it was a yeah, I'll give you that he was he was lucky on that play.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

All right, let's do some best and worse.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

All right.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You go first this time.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I always go first.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Hmm.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I'm happy that they didn't jinx the overtime with their they won eight or seven

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

straight and overtime.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They put that up a couple times.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So I thought they were going to jinx that too.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They also said that they had one 16 consecutive games on leading in halftime, too.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Didn't manage to drink that.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

There was a Josh Beckett side.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And the Marlins because he's yes.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, he's a Texas boy.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

We'll see you again, Josh.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

We sure will.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Lots of you.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Very rich man.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Very, very rich man.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

There was a air horn during a fair catch.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Oh yeah, there's like a of pages player is catching a punt and they air horned it right as soon as about to catch it

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I thought you know got to respect that that's some good hustle. No, it's fucked up lasers in the eyes

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That's not legit, you know true, but an air horn. I don't know there's missiles there. You gotta be able to concentrate. Yeah

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This is just like making noise. I don't even just hold an air horn down

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

That's just a fucking annoying, but if you blew it right with it, try to make a catch.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I'm kind of in on that.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, get it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And my best of the best.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I don't know if you noticed this, but I certainly did.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And the commentary is actually very briefly touched on it because I first noticed it and I was like,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

"I wonder when they're going to comment on it." And they did the first game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And I was like, "Whoa."

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The Belichick Cut-Off Sleeves hoodie game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This is the first Cut-Off Slee hoodie game.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It was so bad.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I was the first was the first time they talked to me. I'm telling you go back and watch it. I've been waiting for this thing.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It's so bad and he has like

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They're like something strapped around his chest. Yeah, someone lay out as close for them

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And I'm thinking like no way just go check out someone laying his clothes out for him. Nope

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

No, that's because he wasn't a super bolt buddy. No, he grabbed that out of the dirty hamper. You fucking know it's like oh fuck it's uh that'll do

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

These sleeves roll along. Let's cut these off real quick. Where's my box cutter?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You probably does his own laundry too, you know, yeah, but badly he probably just like froze everything once a week

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And it's like completely over stuff the things so nothing actually gets clean. Let's sit for a day

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So I guess I'll moldy. Yeah, yeah, yeah

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I'm not I I wash my shit at least twice because I forget the first time

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And probably the worst

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You can see Tyla super hurt. He was a limping everywhere. Yeah, they said something about you had like a

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Peck strain or something like that or something. I was his his angle been hurt all year

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He's missed a couple games. Yeah, but his answering is also tweaked

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But they said something about like something to do with his like ribs or his his pex or like something like that too

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, cuz he cuz the commentators like you know, that's the sort of shit that would like hurt me getting out of bed

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, and he's out there playing a football game with this

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

they said. Yeah. So. Yeah. All right. Is that your? That was my best and worst. Love it. All right.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Let's see. My best sneaky best was Tyrone Pool, not only playing great defense, but returning puns

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

today. I do a damn good job of it. And Patrick Pass was back on kick returns. And I liked that.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I like Patrick Pass. I remember liking him returning kicks. Yeah. But Tyrone Pool four returns,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

42 yards is everything over 10 yards of part retirement.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Not too shabby.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So not bad.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He's yeah, he's concerning on special teams.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He's like a number two corner.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

He's a great signing.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And yeah, he's this good.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And his fucking coverage is outstanding.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Um, what?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Uh, I mean, the worst is the first three quarters.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I'm the goddamn commentator is talking about Adam

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and Terry never missing so that he would miss.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They did talk a lot about how great the field was though.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And I guess there was like trays of grass

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

that they move in and out.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But they clipped together seamlessly.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But then Adam and Terry couldn't kick a field goal

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and Rodney Harrison fell over nothing.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- That's nothing grasses fault.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Bethel Johnson.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Oh come on, please.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Out of touchdown.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- You know what they do what they do

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

where they just roll it outside and grow it

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and then roll it inside.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But it's the same idea.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Grab it outside and then pull it in.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So I'm sure it was in good shape,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

better than the shape and the Patriots day in that shit.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- You know what they should have done though?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

If they wanted to grow grass outside,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

not put a fucking roof on it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- We had a car. - We're in Texas.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

What?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Playing the fucking rain.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

How often is it raining in Texas?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- No, it's so hot.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Who cares?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Dude, it's fucking ridiculous.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- The sprinklers on it.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- We went to Dallas, it was so fucking hot there.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- I didn't go there.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- Not put fucking-- - You're gone,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

'cause it was so hot.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

- I didn't go 'cause it was too fucking hot.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

outside like man I couldn't even stay outside for more than 30 minutes we had a

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

pool too dolphins don't say I need to be sitting in the shade in this pool it's

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

so fucking hot well you're also like the whitest skin person I know with that

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

forehead like you know down here Virginia real hot look at that hot doesn't get

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Texas hot apparently a difference fucking human

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

This is no humans New England. It's a dry heat in Texas. That's fine. But that's why they don't have that's why they play in the dome because it's so hot Florida is the same thing.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I guess. I mean the dolphins don't but the Marlins do. Sounds like some great millennial snowflake bullshit to me.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Sitting in the sun shit sucks. Oh, no. How do they handle it Miami? I

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Guess they just do a bunch of drugs

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Even though they're the fucks going on true so much cocaine

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They just sweat it all out immediately

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Am I worst I will do this is they show a graphic of

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

The Texans in games following a win so the week after they win a game

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

game. The title of it was one and done because they had never won two games in a row as a

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

franchise yet. They were 0 and 7. They averaged 12 points per game and allowed an average

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

of 30 points a game. And they were outgained 259 to 355. And their turnover ratio was negative

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

11. Yeah, so they don't this year, but because they only win one more game, right? Not the next game, right?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Right. Or maybe it was. Well, it doesn't.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They don't win two in a row. Yeah, because they don't win two in a row. Right. So let's see, when's the first time in 2004?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, three. Yeah, 2004, three and four.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They go 79 and then it goes again under Dom

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, they win

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Two games are road and lose they don't win more than two games in a row

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

What what when does that happen?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They didn't then they go to in 14 under capers and he gets fired. Yeah, okay, so that's not good and then so

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

2006

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Still don't win. Oh, they they win their last two games of the season to go six and ten and get a shitty draft spot

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Seven they win their first two games and then lose and then when two games back to back in week 14 and 15

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

and then

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They start 2008 with four losses. Oh, they win three games in a row

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They start off four losses and then win three in a row. It's the first time they win more than two games in a row

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Oh boy. It's two thousand breeder to nine fucking sixteen and oh

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

2008

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They can go for no easier to go 16 and oh so that's the first time they win more than two games in a row

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And they still finish 8-8. They have a three-game win streak and a four-game win streak

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They follow a four game up with a three-game lose streak

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It's not great and then follow that up with another four-game win streak

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

2009 they have their first winning season

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

By winning the last four games of the season

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Oh my goodness.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I mean, there's some big Texan games to come when Andre is like even more of a beast, you know?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Right.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

It's really good in the match.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Shob years.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yep.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yeah, we'll see that coming up.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But before that, we have maybe the regular season game of the season, like the premiere.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Most memoranda.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Remember any of these?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

brand new games. So I'm looking forward to it. I was like, I was watching this. I was like,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I don't even remember who we play in the playoffs. Steve,

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I don't know. I gave her like the AC Jamie. I for a life. You don't tell me. I want to figure it out.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

They'll figure it out. Yeah. But yeah, so next week, it's the nine and two neural

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Patriots facing the nine and two we need an apples Colts for battle for I think technically

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

second place in the AFC. Yeah, but at this point, maybe. Yeah. Depending on how the Chiefs

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

I don't actually know at this point.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

But yeah, so it's going to Peyton Manning's house.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

We haven't been there since the David Patton game, I think.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

You know, one?

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Yes, for sure.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So I was being a couple of years back there because they were...

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Because they're recently out of the division once the Texans joined, that's when the Colts

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

left.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Correct.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

2002 was when their realignment happened.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

So they're no longer in the division.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

Although I will say one of my favorite jets statistics is that the Indianapolis Colts have

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

more AFC East championships than the New York Jets do.

2003 Week 12: Patriots at Texans

And they haven't been the AFC East since 2002.
