6 Rings' Justin Turpin joins Rich & Ken w/ Ted Johnson in studio on WEEI (Thursday, Oct 9) for a full hour of Patriots talk ahead of Sunday's game against the Raiders.
- Turp's pick: Patriots by a touchdown, and why Las Vegas's weak run defense fits what New England is trying to build
- The worry: the Raiders lead the league in forced fumbles, and the Pats have been loose with the football
- Drake Maye after Buffalo: he stopped pressing, trusted his reads, and Turp thinks it's sustainable
- WR depth with Mack Hollins and A.J. Brown out: Romeo Doubs as WR1, Pop Douglas bounce-back, and the "Chipmunk package"
- The broken-tackle stat: receiver problem or Maye's ball placement?
- Efton Chism: Danny Amendola, not Edelman? Why this is his game to deliver
- The edge rush surprise: Elijah Ponder and Gabe Jacas, plus Ted on Jacas's bull rush
- Kirk Cousins, Klint Kubiak's system and Kirk's Creed obsession
- 2001 Patriots vs. 2004 Red Sox: which title meant more?
- Turp's "five-star questions": Maxx Crosby instead of A.J. Brown? Would you bet your paycheck on a turnover-free Maye?
