Zolak & Bertrand: Is there a path to 7 wins for the Patriots?
On Monday’s edition of Zolak & Bertrand, the crew deciphers whether there’s a path to 7 wins for the Patriots. Tim McKone is a big believer in this vision.
It ends with Drake Maye going on a run…
Marc Bertrand:
All right, 6 more wins. You got these games marked out?
Tim McKone:
I do! I don’t think that they’re going to beat the 49ers. That means they’re going to fall to 1-3. They’re going to beat the Dolphins. You should win that game. Especially at home. The Texans are going to be a tough game. I don’t have them winning that. I don’t have them winning against the Jaguars. I don’t have them winning against the Jets, but this is when they go. The Titans will be a win, at the Bears is going to be a win, the Rams are a loss. Against the Dolphins, Tua Tagovailoa will be back, so you’re not going to win that game but then you’re going to win against the Colts and Cardinals. Then you’ll win that Chargers game and that gives you a buffer with the Dolphins.
Scott Zolak:
They may win 9.
Tim McKone:
They’re going to win 7 games this season.
Scott Zolak:
I have them beating Jacksonville. Right around 8 or 9 wins.
Marc Bertrand:
I love how you’ve got them winning against the Colts. at Cardinals, and then again against the Chargers. You’ve got them winning three out of four weeks. Is Drake Maye starting?
Tim McKone:
Yes, he’ll be starting at that point. Then that answers the question that we started last segment with. What gets people fired up? How about if Drake Maye comes in and wins three out of four to end the season and you have seven wins? All right, well, now maybe your destination.
