1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,480
Speaker 1: Thanks Aaron, Troy, how are we doing today? I'm doing fantastic, man.

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:06,480
Speaker 1: That's good to hear. Good to hear. I was. I

3
00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:08,160
Speaker 1: was worried for you when I saw you were coming

4
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 1: in the room after Gerard. No telling what you might

5
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 1: find in this chair man. You know, he's been known

6
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:19,440
Speaker 1: to play some some some high jinks, right, no doubt, Troy,

7
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:21,599
Speaker 1: I got them. I got a question for you that

8
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 1: that isn't necessarily related to what you're preparing for, but

9
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:26,760
Speaker 1: I hope you work with me a little bit here,

10
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 1: um because it's on Brady and just he's about to

11
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 1: pass one hundred thousand passing yards. Yeah, in his career.

12
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 1: Thirteen thousand of those have come in the playoffs. And

13
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 1: when we think about that, Troy, like I'm wondering, like,

14
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 1: when you, like someone have a chance to break that record,

15
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 1: like the thirteen thousand that come in the playoffs, does

16
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,199
Speaker 1: that almost make that like how does that make that

17
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 1: record almost untouchable? If you feel that way? You know,

18
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:59,279
Speaker 1: I mean records I made to be broken. I think

19
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 1: that's the one that's going take a very very very

20
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 1: very long time and a very very very special person

21
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 1: to be able to reach that. You know that milestone

22
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: and a long time for now. I mean it's just remarkable,

23
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 1: remarkable feat by you know, by him, you know, and

24
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,400
Speaker 1: if anybody was gonna do it, it was gonna be him,

25
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: just because he's always had a determination to do you know,

26
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 1: things that people say that he couldn't do or whatever

27
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 1: it is. So it's just, you know, it's pretty amazing.

28
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: So I didn't realize those numbers were he was coming

29
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,960
Speaker 1: up on those numbers, but you know, it's pretty remarkable,

30
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: and I think it just says a lot about him,

31
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 1: you know, as a football player, and you know the

32
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 1: type of passion and the type of you know, leadership

33
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: and everything else that he brings to the game. You know,

34
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 1: he sets his mind to it and he goes out

35
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 1: and and he tries to achieve it. One quick follow ups, right, Um, you,

36
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: as a teammate of his, what did you observe from

37
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 1: him when it came time for the postseason? And that

38
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: maybe stood out to you. I was just saying, I mean,

39
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 1: he's just he's the ultimate competitor, no matter what the

40
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 1: situations work. When we win a lot of those games

41
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 1: back then, it's just you know, his determination to go

42
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: out and win the game, regardless of what it could be.

43
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 1: Be down twenty to three, are off you up. He

44
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 1: just had to always finish the game the right way,

45
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,359
Speaker 1: you know, and whatever that took to finish the game

46
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,519
Speaker 1: and come out victorious. You know, that's what he urged

47
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: and pushed his teams to do. Thank you, Troy O. Hey,

48
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 1: we'll go to our Chris Ryan falled by Nicko Maleley.

49
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 1: Go ahead, Chris, Hey, Troy, how are you? I'm great man,

50
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: how are you awesome? I wanted to start by asking

51
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: about Jacoby Myers, who obviously has shown continued growth, and

52
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: he talked about kind of being a sponge and wanting

53
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 1: to learn as much as possible. And I'm interested in

54
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: what's that's like for you as a from a coach's

55
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 1: perspective to have a player like him who you may

56
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 1: you see as kind of a rough talent and you're

57
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:05,919
Speaker 1: trying to mold and shape And how fun is that

58
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 1: for you to have him be is willing to listen?

59
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 1: And what do you see your impact being? You know,

60
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: I don't know what my impact is. I just know

61
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 1: I'm Jakobe Myers is coaching one of his coaches, and

62
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: you know, it's everything is up to him, you know,

63
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 1: whatever he wants to learn, whatever he wants to do,

64
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: whatever he wants to be. You know, it comes down

65
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 1: to him getting it done, you know, and him, you know,

66
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,359
Speaker 1: being a sponge like. He's not a very talkative guy,

67
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: a very outspoken guy or whatever it is, but he does.

68
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: He's very intelligent. He soaks up information and he uses it,

69
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: applies it to his game, you know. And to watch

70
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 1: him over the past four years to grow to where

71
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: he is, you know, I would never take credit for

72
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: that or anything else that he is accomplishing his career.

73
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 1: You know, hard working young man. He puts in the time,

74
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: he puts into work, and everything he gets he earns.

75
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 1: I want to ask you about Bill as well. In

76
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: passing George Hollis three under twenty five victories, he mentioned

77
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: you in his speech and Matthew Slayer was talking about

78
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: him yesterday and one of his strengths being his ability

79
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: to adapt and to meet players where they were during

80
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: different time periods and mentioned you know that he coached

81
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 1: the Bruski and your team a little bit differently than

82
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 1: he coaches this team. So menteresting what you've seen in

83
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:26,559
Speaker 1: terms of changes from Bill and how he goes about

84
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,359
Speaker 1: connecting with players. He's got to change with the times.

85
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:32,479
Speaker 1: I think we've seen in the past where a lot

86
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: of coaches have gotten stuck in their times and we

87
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 1: weren't able to change. And I think he's been able

88
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:42,239
Speaker 1: to do that over the almost what forty eight years

89
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,040
Speaker 1: now that he's been in this business. So he's been

90
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,479
Speaker 1: able to adapt and change to everything that's going on

91
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: around him. And obviously you can't coach these guys the

92
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 1: way he coached us, you know, different personalities, different time,

93
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,839
Speaker 1: different era. You know, for me, I've got kids the

94
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 1: same age as the players on his teams. I can

95
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:02,679
Speaker 1: tell you got to be able to adapt and change.

96
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: You know, I can't raise my kids to my mother

97
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: raised me. You know, it's just a different time and

98
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: a different exactly. They have a different outlook on things.

99
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: So and I think Bill was done a great job

100
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:16,599
Speaker 1: of adapting adapted to that. Thanks are shit. Yeah, Hey,

101
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 1: we'll go to Nickomlie five like Kyrie Thompson, go ahead

102
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:24,479
Speaker 1: and Nick right. Gerard was talking about his experiences seeing

103
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 1: Matthew Slater, who now the second most games played as

104
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 1: a Patriot, coming in in his rookie season. Um your

105
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:32,720
Speaker 1: last year was two thousand and seven. Did you run

106
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: into him at all when Slatter was coming in as

107
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: a rookie and No. Eight? Say that again, now, did

108
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,159
Speaker 1: you were you around Matthew Slater when he was coming

109
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 1: in as a rookie and O eight? Or are you

110
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 1: still around the team then, because I know your last

111
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: games came in oh seven. Yeah, I wasn't around as much,

112
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 1: but our paths did cross, you know, and I would

113
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: peek in pump up. I would peek into the waitom

114
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 1: maybe once in a while and check him out, and

115
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:58,599
Speaker 1: you know, and it came across him a few times.

116
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 1: So so yeah, pass did cross a little bit earlier

117
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: in his career, you know. And he was inquisitive then

118
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: and he's still inquisitive now. But you know, he's just

119
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 1: he's more of a leader now than he was back then,

120
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 1: Like he was, you know, just soaking up a bunch

121
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: of stuff then himself as a young player. So you know,

122
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: but he's been always been a very impressive young man

123
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: from the time that I met him until until now,

124
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: you know. And he's experienced a lot of growth over

125
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: the years, not just as a football player, but as

126
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 1: a person and a family man as well. So he's

127
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:30,719
Speaker 1: a he's a guy that everybody respects in the room

128
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 1: us not as a football player only, but as a

129
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 1: football player and a family man as well too. So

130
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,600
Speaker 1: a lot of people, can you know, learn a lot

131
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: from Matthew if you just kind of latch onto him

132
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: and you fall him around, and you know, just you know,

133
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: try to do things that he does, and and listen

134
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: to what you know, all the all the words of

135
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: wisdom that he preaches, not just what you guys here

136
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: on the camera, you know after the game, which are

137
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 1: pretty darn inspirational. If you listen to him, Uh, you know,

138
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,919
Speaker 1: he's just as an inspiration all of the cameras he

139
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 1: is on it. So on the roster Matt's he is

140
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 1: listed as a receiver and as a receiver's coach. What

141
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 1: would you say, the chances are the season that us

142
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 1: Late gets into a game at receiver, it catches his

143
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 1: second career NFL pass. Anything's possible, man, Anything's possible. So

144
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 1: he has going out and call some big balls, big passes.

145
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: And back in the day, now, I got a few

146
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: clips and I still show to the guys if he

147
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 1: once in a while. So later getting it done a

148
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: deep ball, Thanks Roy, Yeah, and that we'll go to

149
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: Kyrie Thompson. Go ahead, Kyrie, Hey, coach. One thing Jacobe

150
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 1: Meyers said after the game was that, um, you know,

151
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: there's a lot of focus on Mac Jones, but you

152
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: know that everybody around him could be better, you know,

153
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 1: including receivers and could run routes better and such, and

154
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: it's not kind of all on you know Mac. I

155
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: was just wondering where do you think the room for

156
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 1: improvement that he's referencing, Like, where do you think the

157
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 1: room for improvement could come? And what if you don't

158
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: mind saying, what did you see on the play where

159
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: there was the pick six that got called back? I

160
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: mean heard a couple of people say there was a miscommunication.

161
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 1: Just kind of wondering from your perspective, what you think,

162
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 1: like each guy saw that play that led to that exactly?

163
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 1: That just miscommunication, you know, I mean, nothing more, nothing

164
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: more to it than that. You know, when you think

165
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: a guy's doing this and he doesn't do that, and

166
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 1: you know, and then those are the kind of problems

167
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: that we try to award, is that, you know, situations

168
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 1: like that that basically lead to the other teams scoring

169
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: six points, you know, not just giving the football away

170
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 1: like that and that easily, you know, so um and

171
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 1: as far as you know what what can he what

172
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 1: more game other guys doing the football team to help

173
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 1: is the is to just keep chasing that goal or

174
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: playing the perfect game, you know, So they keep doing that,

175
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: you know, they keep reaching for a bigger and higher

176
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 1: goals every single week. So because you're never going to

177
00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: play a perfect game, but that's what what the goal

178
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 1: is for most of the guys appreciate it. Thank you,

179
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:05,680
Speaker 1: all right, you guys
