1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,960 Speaker 1: Sean, just wondering how you felt, how you feel Brian 2 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 1: Tables done this year just giving all the offensive the 3 00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:11,119 Speaker 1: turnover you guys had offensive personnel. Yeah, he's done a 4 00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:14,000 Speaker 1: good job. You know, he's done a good job of 5 00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 1: developing an identity with our offense. Um. You know we've had, 6 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,079 Speaker 1: as you mentioned, some turnover, quite a few or a 7 00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 1: number of turnover situations there just in terms of personnel wise, 8 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 1: trying to continue to build our football team. And I 9 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:30,480 Speaker 1: think he's done a nice job of staying positive and um, 10 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,280 Speaker 1: you know, finding roles for as many guys as possible. 11 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 1: What would you say the identity of the offense has 12 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 1: become now? Well, I think it really stain. You know, 13 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: it evolves around the quarterback, much like the offense in 14 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 1: New England, right what he brings to the table and 15 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: then then to me, an offense identity goes up front 16 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: after that. So, um, you know we've got a lot 17 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 1: of work to do, um, but we were at least 18 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: we've got it started at this point. What does Josh 19 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: Allen bring to the table coach? Uh, you know, a 20 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,759 Speaker 1: young quarterback naturally as you know, Um, and with with 21 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 1: some of that, there's some good and there's some bad 22 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 1: and some growth. You know, areas um for growth and UM. 23 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 1: But I think what you see on probably TV the 24 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: most is the competitiveness, um, you know, the ability to 25 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:32,559 Speaker 1: make throws, UM, and a guy that's you know, he's 26 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: taking he's taken some lumps, but at the same time, 27 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: he's been resilient in terms of his approach every week 28 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: to to try and better himself. Could you talk about 29 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: his ability to extend plays with his feed to scrambling ability. Yeah, 30 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: that's certainly there. Um. I think a little bit some 31 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 1: of that time, some of that at times overshadows his 32 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: ability as a quarterback, um in terms of in the pocket. Um. 33 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: But but that's certainly that's certainly an element of his game. 34 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: Did that surprise you when he was coming out of 35 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: the draft, you know, all anyone could talk about was 36 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 1: his arm, and now his legs seemed to be doing 37 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 1: a lot of the damage. Yeah, that's a good question. 38 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: You know, I think honestly that did not surprise us. 39 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,640 Speaker 1: That was part of when we went through the film 40 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: as you kind of you know, stack up the different 41 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 1: qualities that all the quarterbacks that went through the draft 42 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: this year that they had. That was one of the 43 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 1: areas that josh Um did bring to the table. What's 44 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: he still getting, what's he still going to get better at? 45 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:36,919 Speaker 1: What's he still kind of in the infancy in his development? Yeah? 46 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,799 Speaker 1: I mean you name it. Um, he's a listen, he's 47 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 1: a young quarterback in his his what start like I 48 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 1: don't know eight, you know, he's not even a double 49 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: digit starts yet. So Um, for any player, let alone 50 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: a quarterback, you know, there's a lot of a lot 51 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,079 Speaker 1: of room for improvement. You mentioned Brian, but it was 52 00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: an important to have the right coaching staff around him 53 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 1: at the beginning. So he's learning the right habits and 54 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: teaching things and teaching him the right things to build 55 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,679 Speaker 1: off of. Absolutely. Yeah, that's a that's a key part 56 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: in the player's development is having the right the right people, 57 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 1: whether it's teammates or in this case, a coach. The 58 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: patients have been far better at home the season that 59 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: happened on the road. Have you seen any trends as 60 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 1: to why that might be the case? I don't, Um, 61 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: you know, there's probably a lot written and a lot 62 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: said over the years as to why they're better at home. Um. Um, 63 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,839 Speaker 1: that's a good that's a good good aspect, A good 64 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: I guess character trait when you play well at home 65 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: and usually leads to, um, you know, winning in playoffs, 66 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: and they've been able to do that for a number 67 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: of years. Sean, do you have any update on the 68 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: status of your running backs for this week? I know 69 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: you're you're you're getting kind of thin there. Yeah, you know, 70 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: we're just gonna take it one day at a time. 71 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: They'll practice today a little bit as we go out 72 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: there in a couple of minutes here and see and 73 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: see how they look, Sean, this year Tom Brady's a 74 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: little behind pace of where he was statistically last year. Uh. 75 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: And in the league where you know, stats seem to 76 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: be going up for quarterbacks. Is there anything you've noticed 77 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: that's that you know? Is he declining? Is he where's 78 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: he at compared to last year? Now? He looks to me, 79 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 1: he looks even better than he than he has in 80 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:24,720 Speaker 1: years past. Believe it or not. I know that the 81 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: numbers may not support that, but UM, I think he's playing. Um, 82 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 1: his game is strong and UM you know he doesn't 83 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 1: turn the ball over. UM, so I think he's as 84 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 1: good as ever. Can you give me a sense of 85 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: why he looks better like in what ways? Well, the 86 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,479 Speaker 1: way he's um, I think the way he's allocating the 87 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 1: ball to different receivers, um, you know, how he's getting 88 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: them in and out of plays, how they used to 89 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: the no huddle offense. Um, strategically, I think all of 90 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: that is really showcases his ability not only with his 91 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: with his arm physically, but also his mental capability. Thanks. 92 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: It's changed about the Patriots offense since you saw the 93 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 1: movie game again, I think, just more more variety in 94 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: terms of what they do, UM, how they play, the 95 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: different weapons they have, Um, you know, they've got a 96 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: ton of weapons with Uh. You go right down through 97 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 1: the list, starting with the guys that have been there 98 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 1: a long time with with Tom and then um you 99 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: know the line the continued that they've had over the years, 100 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,600 Speaker 1: and they play. They play as good as any line 101 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 1: out there. They're well coached. UM, so a lot of 102 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 1: respect for what they do up there. What have you 103 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: seen from J. C. Jackson? He's maybe playing a little 104 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: more than last time you saw the past. Yeah, good player, 105 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 1: UM you know, um, just a young player. But um, 106 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,359 Speaker 1: you know, with with young players comes a lot of 107 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 1: a lot of good things and and then some things, 108 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: you know, learning a natural learning curve, which is some 109 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,679 Speaker 1: of what we go through with with our young players. 110 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: And UM, but a lot of respect for the start 111 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 1: that he's off to at this point in uh, in 112 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 1: his career. Sean earlier the season looked like you went 113 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: away from doubling Rob Gronkowski. We've seen a lot of 114 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 1: teams do that more as the season's gone on. What 115 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: have you seen from him on film? And does he 116 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: look like like the same guy to you? Certainly does? UM? 117 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 1: You know, I know he had a couple of games 118 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: where he didn't play. UM, and that's been the case 119 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 1: you know, I think for uh most years recently at least. UM. 120 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 1: But yeah, he's he's as good as he's been. UM. 121 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: You know, presents a matchup challenge and UM, a guy 122 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: that we certainly have to know, UM how we want 123 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 1: to handle how we want to handle him. All right, coach, 124 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 1: I think we're all said, UM, safe travels up here 125 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: and thanks shaking the back all right, thanks guys, I 126 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: mean
