Sooooooooooooooooooo Nick, is your theory then....if the patriots fire Belchik...his coaching career is over? He will break the record as the Cowboys Head Coach. Like stop this...this is why the NEW MEDIA is coming for yall job.
😮
“What is it? Valentine’s Day?” Wildes is pure comedy. 😂
😂😂😂😂
The dude in the background….maybe Dustin….his laugh made me about spit my drink! 😂😂😂
The Fox borough side of him came out lol
That one made me 😂lol
He’s so witty and the speed of the response is fantastic! 😂
He steadily be killin Nick
I hope they never edit the background laughs 😂😂 it makes everything so much funnier
Wow, the show’s 2 Chiefs fans had such a heated conversation about the Patriots 😮 Coach and Bru could barely spoke a few words 😂
Wildes' chiefs are lookin mighty fine this year
What is it Valentine’s day? Wildes is hilarious lmao
“Do they not allow touchdowns at camp?” Lmao
3:18 - Wildes is dying inside. This is the most painful segment ever. Coach Mangini was hilarious at the end of the clip with his point about Bill as an acting GM (11:21). He was on a roll!
When football season starts I’m going to need consistency from this group 😂 because this my new favorite sports show
They been consistent dawg
Wildes face at 3:19 is so funny 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
"it's a non-story in the sense that it's a reality."
Well put.
The reaction out of frame while everyone in shot just ignored it 😄 so good.
3:11 LMAO I need a loop of Wildes reaction to this lol
Background laughing gets me ever time🤣🤣
I love when coach is on the show he's funny
Agree with Nick here. Tomlin gets by on perpetual mediocrity. Besides, who are you going to get to upgrade over BB??
you’re white
He has 2 rings many teams have none
@@kingmusa8618 Tomlin has one ring, with Cowhers players.
they both make the best out of what they have currently
15th all time in win percentage. At least watch the sport before commenting on it
Are we going to ignore the fact that this is the same Bill that dropped a pro-bowler for a 6th round pick, or wanted to replace an MVP with a unproven draftee?
Belichick has been arguably the worst GM for years now
as a pats fan, i think belichick as a manager should be on the hot seat. his coaching is the only reason for those close games and why they didnt go 2-15 😂
Yup. Get him out of the GM spot, but still let him be HC. That’s the position he’s built for. Since Caserio left a few years back, BB’s done a terrible job as GM.
Stop it. If there were a competition, they would give Zappe some reps with the first stringers, and, so far, Zappe has not had ONE rep with the ones. Not one. There is no competition. So stupid.
Every Reporter at Patriots Training Camp: "There is no QB Competition"
FTF: "There is a QB Competition"
Yes, this show is very entertaining. But sometimes it's just dumb 😂 I respect Coach Mangini, but to say "in his Rookie Year everything went right" is just false. But yeah if having an actual OC is "everything going right" then yeah, I guess everything went right.
Poor Wildes man lol
Zappe, is a smart and steady, good QB in the pocket. He's also humble and doesn't wine, like a entitled woman, when stuff doesn't go his way.. He does not "panic" like Jones does, when he gets bum rushed and pressure.
Coach and Greg Jennings are the best guest that come on the show.
Bailey gave that offense juice and actually has a much better arm. Go with the kid from Victoria
Both god bad arms. Bailey got like 2% more velocity in bis throws.
Zappe's stats came against Cleveland (20th in defense and fired the D-Coordinator), Detroit (28th in defense and worst against the pass), and Chicago (dead last in defense) and he bombed out against that dead last defense.
I wish this show would talk about other teams other than the chiefs, jets , and patriots…
They need to considering tonight is a preseason game last time I checked 😊
The background laughter is the best thing 🤣 😂 idk if it purposeful or not..But keep it lol 👍
“What is this Valentine’s Day?” 😂 Perfect!
I think people are way too quick on the draw to fire coaches, especially one as good as Belichick. Who is out there that is available and is as good as Belichick? He's arguably the greatest coach of all time and you need players to win. Yes he got a lot of money to play with but all the money in the world can't get you a great QB if they aren't out there. Give the guy a break geesh. He was a huge part of bringing 6 rings to NE it would be insane to get rid of a coach of that tier. Sure he set the bar high but in my opinion he's untouchable. If Tomlin is safe then Belichick is safe.
Fboy
Bill OBRIEN is better than Brlichick. Kingsbury and Nagy too. Really and good offensive coach. Bill holds back his own teams
Kirby Smart. If Mr. Kraft really wanted to, he could convince Kirby to leave GA.
Belichick is on track to give his fan favorites another. 500 season. are you tipping your hat back AGAIN for that???.
time for a new coach...and YES there is better because there is no worse
I dont even like the Pats but i just KNOW Wildes is gnna be hilarious in this segment 😂😂😂
Nick hates Mac Jones so much it results in him being delusionally high on Zappy
Especially if you look at who Bailey zappe beat….
Then why on SXM radio yesterday when it was Patriots’ Day, Mac was on the show and it clearly appeared that he was the starting QB as he was talking about his relationship with OB and their approach together? This is confusing.
Anyone who has paid any attention to pats training camp knows there is no qb comp. Mac has been given all of the 1st team reps and has handled the job much better than zappe so far against the 1st team defense.
I am shocked to say I agree with Nick, but I agree with Nick
I looove that they throw patriot topics in just to mess with Wildes 🤣🤣
This is why Hopkins didn't go to the Pats- there's no stability at QB. Mac got benched last year for Zappe, and it will probably happen again this season.
As a patriots fan the only thing I can say is there is a reason on qb is the starter and one is the backup
Yeah you can't fire Bill, he's up against an entire conference of playoff teams worth of HoF QBs with Mac Jones in his holster.
He could have drafted Lamar but was too stupid to see the change in the game, he is an old dog
Switching around Zap or Mac is like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic moments before it hit the Iceberg.
Remember, Belichick would have had Brady ride the bench his entire career if not for an injury. Possibly putting a guy as the second string is a test of character or a developmental strategy.
Not true! Bill wanted to replace Bledsoe bc the team hated Drew the Statue
There are a lot of players that never got to play. Those players could have been the next whoever. You talk like you knew Brady was going to be great. It's always easy to say after the fact. If Brady came out today from college as a QB he probably doesn't even get drafted. Slow, average arm in today's NFL. Good luck. Everyone wants a guy who can throw is 80 yards why who knows and can run. Brady can do neither.
@@Fier07112 Completely true. Bledsoe started until he got hurt. End of story.
@@Fier07112 Pure B.S . Belichick signed Bledsoe to the largest contract given to any player in NFL history in 2000. So let me get this straight just so there's no room for misinterpretation > He signed Bledsoe for $100 Million because he hated him . 👌
I don't like Mac Jones' attitude, especially when things go wrong. He throws a fit more than TB12, but without 12's resume.
Why are we measuring bill belichick to mike tomlin. The difference is that bill has executive decision on every aspect on that team while tomlin just has to deal with the questionable decisions kevin colbert made. Belichick made the decision for patricia and made the decision not to go after top end talent. Due to the discrepancy in power belichick absolutely deserves more heat than tomlin
The problem is Mangini doesn't want to admit they're done winning superbowls, Kraft's expectations are unfair and unrealistic because they aren't even close to winning a suoerbowl, so Bill shouldn't be on thr hotseat for unrealistic expectations
Watch this 😂😂
Baily Zappe is impressive and while I think Jones will be the starter it’s not inconceivable that Zappe will be a starter in the future with the patriots or elsewhere
Bill Belichick should publicly apologize for what he did to Mac last year.
EM's opinion of the Pats should always be taken with a grain of a salt
Reading into a Bill Belichick answer is like breaking down why we breath air...yawn
Bill isn’t on any type of hot seat no he’s one of the greatest coaches in nfl history
The Ridiculousness crew use to be my favorite trio on TV, but now it’s definitely Wildes, Chris, and Nick
This show is entertaining 🙏
Wildes is not going to be a happy camper when the Patriots finish 4th in the AFC East AND Mac Jones gets benched.
Doh!!! It was so easy when everything was great... Now... Gotta "have" to hustle...
I love this show
How would he know ?
at 8:34 why is bill wearing a Croatian flag on his sleeve ?
He wasn't born there and he's does not have citizenship there, But his mother or father is of the descent I think his mother because she passed away in 2020 and since that year he's been wearing it
Go patriots
Eric so loves Bill..😂😂
I love Mangini being so eager to put dirt on Bill’s grave, the hate is real.
They should fire him 2 years before he’s ready.
They talk about mac jones a lot …..like a lot
There is a new England fan literally hosting the show😂😂😂😂...not to mention patriots have 50 super bowl rings
I like how wildes has mac jones over aaron rodgers 🤣🤣
Teams no longer "GIVE" you the job.Especially if you haven't impressed. Belichick is old school...so I am not surprised he's doing this. I think Mac also didn't handle the Patricia thing in a mature way and complained too much for Bill's liking. Bill doesn't have time to develop QBs anymore...he wants to win as many games as he can to catch Shula and retire..if Zappe avoid Turnovers.the Pats can win with their defense doing the work.
Bill has won 8 rings..he's not after a franchise QB right now..just wins.
Pats going to playoffs.. O'Brien gonna let Mac cook
😳🤣
This guy Nick 😭. Bros acting like Belichick has to lay out the red carpet for Mac Jones. No, Mac needs to earn his spot.
Mangini ahahahhha 😂😂😂
Soon enough, the cravings will set in, then you’ll come crawling back to the Zapper for another taste of sweet, sweet candy
Coach rides for the patriot way lol
Mangini is really good
Coach sound like he hating on coach Bill.. Bill created the whole Patriots culture.
Zappe may not be the starter but my guess is Mac will be on the sideline by game 5.
Forth time doing a session, is Belichick on the hot seat? There’s got to be more to talk about
If these guys can’t watch film and see that Mac is wayy more advanced as a QB than Zappe than no one should be listening to these talking heads. Zappe clearly doesn’t have the skill set and mental game that Mac has
How is it a competition if Zappe hasn’t taken a snap with the starters???
Shh you're being too logical bro. The Zappe fans don't want to hear this lol
Mac did horrible last year I don’t get why he’s starting but if he is, he needs to win within the first 2 games.. if not he’s out.
@laribol3127 bro he did horrible because he had a Defensive Coordinator calling his plays. He regressed a little but not to that low of a point last year. Most of that was Patricia. Zappe wasn't as good as you think he was either. There's a reason they eventually stayed with Mac which was the right decision. Also Mac isn't gonna be on a 2 game leash unless he's absolutely terrible to start the season lol
@@josuesimplice3859 I don’t think u know what ur talking about kid. So we all know Zappe only played 1 season in college at W.Kentucky. Then Signed with the pats. Now, he only had 13 starting reps and got thrown into his first nfl game, then won his 1st 2 games… he also had a qb rating of 100+ in both games. As for his turnovers, The 2 interceptions weren’t on him, Nelson agholor muffled the ball on the first pick, and the second Dominique Robinson batted his throw and it unfortunately got picked off. Also 2 of zappes fumbles were botched hand off exchanges (which is common for rooks) and the other 2 were because his right tackle Isaiah winn, allowed the defenders in, within 3 seconds as he was about to throw the ball. These are unfortunate but it happens.. but Overall The 4 games zappe started was a success because, Of the 50 nfl QB’s with the most pass attempts in 2022, zappe was ranked tied for 6th in QB rating also ranked 2nd in yrds per attempt. He did all this with a “defensive coordinator calling the plays” lol if u break down his plays u can see how accurate he is with his passing. Also, go watch macs game against the cardinals. He didn’t throw past 30 yards, even tho Arizona has a horrible secondary. he left wide open receivers and when they interviewed him about it, he blamed the OC. A real quarterback, scans the field and throws to the open man, and after a bad game they take responsibility for their horrible playing. Idc what anyone says zappe is better.. that’s my opinion.
@@laribol3127 It's a wrong opinion though lol. I never said Zappe isn't accurate. Mac is just the better QB. Slightly stronger arm and just as accurate if not more accurate. Zappe played against some of the worst pass defenses in the NFL to get those stats. Patricia also called the game differently for Zappe. Barring some unforeseen circumstances Mac is gonna be QB1 and he should be until he loses that job. I don't understand why people hate Mac all of a sudden and are putting Zappe on a pedestal? Mac was amazing with a real OC. He'll be amazing again with Bill O'Brian this season.
Wildes is the GOAT
Tomlin is on the hot seat if we don’t win a playoff game. Nick is wrong lol. Bill has backing in that although it was w Tom, he’s been a consistent proponent in the playoffs despite the last 2 yrs. Mike T has underachieved w the team he has had since before we lost to the Jags in the playoffs.
Tomlin is in one of the hardest divisions and stills gets winning records... fire him?!
lol no he’s not the owner and gm just came out and said he’s not going anywhere u know they never fire coaches
These guys don’t have a clue what they’re talking about and it blows my mind. No wonder Mac struggled last year. He was made for a McDaniels offense. Where he’s smart and can cram every little detail in and for every switch and nuance he has an answer and an outlet on offense. That fits his skill set. You don’t draft Mac and then put him in a vanilla offense w no countermoves and just say “win the game w your athleticism and figure it out” that’s not his strength. O’Brien will give him plenty to chew on and work with. He’ll rebound this year. He’s a stud. and these analysts don’t know how to watch film
Wait.....Eric Manginy be hating on Bill Belocheat?
Bellicheck is on the hot seat because of his choices as a gm. A good GM would rework the team for a bounce back.
Remember what happened to Drew Bledsoe?😮
Zap has had 0 first team reps, mac is the starter baring injuries
either way bill belichick needs to figure out who he's going to use as quarterback so if they got to compete then get it done !! GET ER DONE BILL !!
Bill is the best football mind most of us have ever seen. These morons who say he’s had nothing to do with it aren’t paying attention to the rest of his career. He’s the best
He will miss the playoffs for the 9th time in 11 yrs without Brady since he isn't a very good coach.
Belichick is NOT the coach "MOLD"...his career was built by the work of Lawrence Taylor and Tom Brady. He is a .500 or below coach without these two legends; and I DO MEAN legends. Parcells said himself about L.T..... "I'm gonna jump on the carpet and ride this wave"
lol the standard in tom brady, not an excellence standard for a patriots organization who were an afterthought up until tom got there
Mangini wants a job in NE so bad.
Eat it Pat!
We done this for almost two decades!
They will go 4th and the old man can yacht his boot.
Belichck said it was a qb competition while Brady was there it means if Mac sucks Zappe will replace him
Mangini salty cause despite leaving Bill 2 decades ago, Bill is the only reason people want to talk to him and he's still kissing Bills ring pmsl xD
The best thing we can all do if we all really hate this show is to stop commenting and stop giving them clicks in the first place. Let this be a wake up call to all who actually hate these guys for being paid millions for spewing nothing worthwhile.
Mac isn't Brady Eric! So why would Bill treat the situation like Mac's Brady and he's done something?
❤
Never in the hot seat... TBay playbook
Mac had a good first year. Most Qb's have a sophomore slump. No excuses this year though.
Very true but he was bound to have a slump with circus clowns calling plays
@@rdogletree4543how come zappe did well with the same “plays”
This is, actually, Mac's second year. Last season was a clown-show from start to finish and doesn't qualify as a "professional" season.
@@Mooseman327THANK YOU
@@Mooseman327 Right, people talk about Russell Wilson having a bad coach but at least Hackett was an offensive coach. Jones had a DC calling offensive plays like this is high school or something.
I mean the Pats might as well bench Mac it’s not like they are gonna give him 250 next year
He has 2 years left on the rookie contract no?
@@simplebidnessman he was drafted in the same draft as Lawrence he’s getting an extension after the season most qbs get theirs after the 3 yr just like Hebert and Hurts just got so what’s your point
@@deesee2051 was t making a point, I was asking a question
@@simplebidnessman understood 👍🏾
I'll pick Zappe over Mac
Take it deep 👍
Bailey Zappe has the most TDs thrown in a college season. If he proves himself in training camp then give him a shot
Western Kentucky Hilltoppers LOL Ya,throwing against APP State, Austin Peay and Gardener Web. If he played 12 games against teams like Georgia or Alabama he would be lucky if he got across center field once a game.
@@youthinkyouknowme5551 then how come none of their other qbs ever did it
@@tonylouis6072 I don't think you understand the power of schedule or NCAA Div 1 Football . If Zapp had to play a SEC, Big 10, Pac 12 schedule against those teams he would be lucky to throw 15 TD's all season. But don't get me wrong i like the guy. I like him better than Mac Jones
I wouldn’t be surprised to see Zappe start some time this season. I really don’t see much of a difference between Zappe and Mac.
Ok seriously this is borderline annoying now. How does wildes justify any of his thoughts about the patriots
Not a patriots fan but I feel there gonna win alota close games against good teams. Come bak to this comment when it happen
This is click bait for the rest of the AFC East…. Anyone paying attention to training camp knows that Mac is getting ALL the reps with the 1’s and Bailey is working with the 2’s and 3’s. None of the local writers believes there is a competition. Mac is the starting Quarterback and it’s not close.
What they do to KW wit these segment ...............
Pats tanking for Caleb
Belichick has proven he's barely average without Tom Brady. He should absolutely be in the hot seat. Craft was about to fire him before Brady happened anyway.
He's 78-83 without Tom. This is not a small sample size. It's 10 seasons. The evidence is clear, he's as replaceable now as he was before Brady. Cleveland figured it out, how long will it take NE?
