1 00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:04,240 Speaker 1: Done yesterday with folk pass. That's sort of what hows 2 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:04,800 Speaker 1: that means? 3 00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:07,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I thought we had a good day yesterday. 4 00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 2: I did some things well. Obviously a lot to clean up. 5 00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:14,120 Speaker 2: You're constantly chasing perfection and that's always the goal, but 6 00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:18,959 Speaker 2: it's never reached. And but you know, I think you know, 7 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 2: physical football team, really good front. So being in past, 8 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 2: things like that run game timing, you know, getting that 9 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:26,440 Speaker 2: field always important. 10 00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 1: You know. 11 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,880 Speaker 2: Then obviously today big day, kind of third down emphasis, 12 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:34,199 Speaker 2: you know, every week and we can be better and 13 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,520 Speaker 2: so big challenge this week. They do a great job 14 00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:41,159 Speaker 2: on third down. The biggest thing helping us can be 15 00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 2: winning first and second down, kind of playing third down a. 16 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 1: Little bit more on our terms. 17 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:47,840 Speaker 2: And you know, it's not a team you really want 18 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 2: to sit back there in third and ten plust and 19 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 2: try to play them in that way. 20 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 1: You're going to do it different. Every game is different, 21 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 1: every situation is different. 22 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 3: But at the same time, you guys have gotten off 23 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 3: this from pretty slow starts this year. 24 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 1: On offense, are. 25 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 3: There any sort of commonalities when it comes to each 26 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 3: one of the first four games that'll still start to speak? 27 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 2: Oh, I mean, I think turnovers is the obvious one, right, So, 28 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 2: I mean it's hard to get any start when you 29 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 2: don't have the football. So you know, I think, you know, 30 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 2: there's been times we started fast, we stream get stringing 31 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 2: things together. 32 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: You know, kind of did the first drive last week. 33 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 2: And you know, and then you know obviously kind of 34 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 2: had our problems there. So it just starts, you know, 35 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 2: winning that first play, have a good first down, good 36 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 2: second down, good third down, and keep it moving, maybe 37 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 2: skip a third down, just stringing good plays together, one 38 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 2: after another, you know, being all right, you know, just 39 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 2: you know, taking it for what it is and moving forward. 40 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 2: So it would be a big challenge this week. I 41 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 2: guess a good team, so good defense, good front, a 42 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 2: lot of a lot of experience from the top down, 43 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 2: you know, you look at it from the secondary to 44 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 2: the lineback and court to the d line. So a 45 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 2: lot of experienced players and really good players. 46 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 1: You notice the back jones this week coming on, you 47 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: know that Dalns game. 48 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 2: Look, I mean, you know, like I said, good batter 49 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 2: and different in this league. You got to move on. 50 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 2: And that's for all of us. None of us played 51 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 2: good enough to win, you know, and you know, thinking 52 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 2: about that now, how to move on and move to 53 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 2: the site. 54 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: And that's what we're focused on. The fans said, the 55 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:33,519 Speaker 1: much the feeling of the guys. 56 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,679 Speaker 3: That you wanted to put forward to performance at the 57 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 3: nothing fans. 58 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 2: You know, yeah, definitely, you know what I mean. Look, 59 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 2: it's a there's a huge honory to play, you know, 60 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 2: for the Patriots in this community, this fan base. Yeah, 61 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 2: so going out there and you know, trying to string 62 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 2: it together, like I said, string good plays together, you know, 63 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 2: grind it out, you know, and put our our best 64 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 2: performance out there this coming sud Day and then you know, 65 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 2: washer and repeat and try to do it next week. 66 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: Good, you know what I mean. 67 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 2: Riley, It's been a great, great teammate, you know, all 68 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 2: spring and all summer. Obviously you know, veteran guy, uh, 69 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 2: another Iowa guy. But you know, I really enjoyed having 70 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 2: Riley's perspective, his presidence out there. Uh, you know, obviously 71 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 2: kind of unfortunate, you know what happened and part of it, 72 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 2: but you know, he can do a lot for us. 73 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 2: You know, he really love the way he puts the 74 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 2: team first, you know, playing guard. You know, the summer 75 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 2: he was a twelve year veteran you know, only played 76 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 2: tackle and not playing guard. So I really respect that 77 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 2: about him. Uh, you know, he can always help our 78 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 2: football team. 79 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 1: The first colleks like happy to no. 80 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 2: I mean, no, I don't think look like I said, 81 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 2: like chasing perfections right, Like that's true, no matter what 82 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 2: I mean. I can remember Super Bowls walking in that 83 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 2: first day of spring and Scar putting on the Super 84 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 2: Bowl tape and you would have thought we lost the game. 85 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 2: So you know, and that's part of it, that's what 86 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,239 Speaker 2: you know, it's about. You know, no one, no one's 87 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 2: got to be perfect to win this game. There's gonna 88 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 2: be mistakes, and I think you have to know that 89 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 2: your mistakes happened, all right, move on next play, right. 90 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: Like it's part of it. 91 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 2: You know, you're gonna Fortunately, they've got really good guys 92 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 2: on the other side of the ball from me, so 93 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 2: they're gonna get theirs too. And you just go out there, 94 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 2: you compete your tail off, try to do it the 95 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 2: right way. And you know, I think that's the most 96 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 2: important thing. And when something bad happens, all right, that's fine, 97 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 2: Let's move on next play, right. 98 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 1: What happened happened. We can't control it. 99 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 2: Maybe we try to fix it if it's a scheme 100 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 2: thing whatever, you know, but what happened happening you gotta go. 101 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: You gotta go. 102 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 3: When you look at the film of the Sneaks in particular, 103 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 3: just like what do you guys look at and you 104 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 3: can do bad there on those. 105 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 2: Places the sleep place. Yeah, I mean I think you know, 106 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 2: you know, it's a you know, it's a different way 107 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 2: of running the quarterback sneaks and things like that. So 108 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 2: uh yeah, I think it's something you just have to 109 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 2: work on it. It's kind of the thing around the 110 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 2: league right now, you know. So yeah, I think there's 111 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 2: just different ways to construct things, different ways to do things. 112 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: You know, biggest thing is trying to get under them, 113 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,359 Speaker 1: move them. That's at the simplest. 114 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 2: Course, pattern and pat trying to move them and they're 115 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 2: trying to do the same to us. So it's really 116 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:38,840 Speaker 2: just who does that better at the time. 117 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 3: Obviously, like Philly's the one that kind of started this trend, 118 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 3: Like you guys watch their film to see like how. 119 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 2: They like, Yeah, they obviously do a really good job 120 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 2: of it. You know, they're a lie Jalen, the pushers whatever. 121 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 2: I mean, they just do a really good job of 122 00:05:56,040 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 2: it so you know something, you know we can do better, 123 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,119 Speaker 2: you know, a list of a few things. 124 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's so weird thoughts not to separate. 125 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I always loved having JC around, you know. 126 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 2: I mean he's always been a fun teammate, so uh yeah, 127 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 2: decided to add back. You know, someone's been here now, 128 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 2: so yeah, but I don't really work with him that much. 129 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,479 Speaker 2: If I'm playing dB or he's playing online, probably some 130 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:29,239 Speaker 2: bigger issues. 131 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 3: It started one in three the last years, but you 132 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 3: were able to win the next game to avoid falling 133 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,279 Speaker 3: one and four. I know you want to win every game, 134 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 3: but does this feel like a real must win game 135 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 3: for you guys? 136 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 2: I mean, I think in this league, every every week 137 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 2: is a must win game, right, and that's just how 138 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 2: it is. And I think we gotta win this one, 139 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 2: and then we gotta win this like yo, it's one 140 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 2: week's season, it's a must win one because it's the 141 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 2: next one. And then I couldn't tell you whoever we 142 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 2: play next week, the must win win that week. And 143 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 2: you know it starts by winning Wednesday win, and Thursday win, 144 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 2: and Friday trying to win Saturday. You know, if you 145 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 2: can sneak it some time Sunday morning, if it's a 146 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 2: night game or something right like, whatever edge you can 147 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 2: get to try to go out there Sunday and get 148 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 2: a win. 149 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 3: It's most important you've been here the last years to 150 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 3: be able to draw on at it all. Like you know, 151 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 3: we've wanted this similar spot the last couple of times. 152 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, I mean I think I've kind of 153 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 2: had a litany of it all. I've been ten and 154 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 2: oher and all world and then one in five the 155 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 2: last games of the season or something like that, So 156 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 2: I've kind of seen it all both sides of the 157 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 2: fence and gotta have better ball security. But yeah, I 158 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 2: mean I think I've seen it all. You know, I 159 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 2: think I've not as much as a lot of the 160 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 2: coaches and things like that. But you know, we've had 161 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 2: years where we've been, like I said, ten and oh 162 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 2: and then kind of don't get down the stretch.
