00:00So they've got to be ready to play in New Orleans.

00:01They've got to be loud and all this stuff.

00:03This is – my gut tells me this is not the game, though,

00:07that they're not supposed to lose, that they end up losing.

00:11I just – I feel like everything is in place.

00:14It's laid out for you.

00:15A trap game is supposed to be one that you just don't see coming.

00:18They're not looking ahead on the schedule to what they have to do the week after.

00:23Yeah, that's what a trap game is.

00:25A trap game is between two good games.

00:27That's the idea of the trap.

00:30It's that you're focused from where you've been and where you're going,

00:34and then you fall into the trap.

00:35I think it's almost visually needs to be in between two games

00:40because the trap lays in between.

00:42Someone on –

00:43Does it also have to be on the road?

00:45We've had this discussion on the –

00:46No, a trap game can be at home.

00:48It may be even better if it's at home because then you're even more content.

00:52Someone put a strength of schedule dynamic up.

00:55You're going to talk about that?

00:56Go ahead.

00:56I was.

00:57The Patriots have far and away the easiest strength of schedule in the league.

01:00I mean, the winning percentage of the teams that are left is somewhere around 300

01:04for the rest of the season.

01:06And you look at the schedule, you guys are just talking about –

01:08Is that what the number was in that chart?

01:11Yeah.

01:11Okay, so it was 305, I think was the number.

01:13Yes, 305.

01:14And I think second worst is 400.

01:16Yeah, it's like not even close.

01:18Not even close.

01:18Most of the Patriots have far and away the easiest schedule.

01:21And more to that point, take a look at the rest of the Patriots' schedule.

01:24Where's the trap game?

01:25What trap game do they have?

01:28I mean, we were talking about they might lose at Tampa Bay.

01:31That's a game they'll definitely be an underdog before that.

01:34I assume they're going to lose in Tampa Bay.

01:36But, I mean, there's no trap game there.

01:38No, there's not.

01:39Because then they play the Jets right after that.

01:42Right.

01:42I mean, it just – that's how easy the schedule is.

01:45I suppose if you were to rattle off, say, three straight wins here,

01:51which would actually be five, but if you beat New Orleans,

01:54you beat Tennessee, and you beat Cleveland, looking ahead –

01:59Oh, to the Buccaneers.

02:01It would be –

02:03Atlanta.

02:04The Falcons.

02:04Would be the track game.

02:05Before you play the Buccaneers.

02:07Okay.

02:08Okay, if you're really searching for one, I suppose maybe that would be the case.

02:12But you're still not in between two good teams.

02:15No.

02:16With the Browns and the Buccaneers.

02:18With Flacco now on the Bengals, I'm interested in how that's going to turn out.

02:22So who knows what that game around Thanksgiving is going to be against the Bengals.

02:27It's interesting.
