0:00:00.360 --> 0:00:03.440
<v Speaker 1>Welcome back to Colando's Italian village here in West Caldwell,

0:00:03.600 --> 0:00:06.800
<v Speaker 1>New Jersey. Joined us on Bloomfield Avenue and gentle over

0:00:06.880 --> 0:00:09.400
<v Speaker 1>to the perfect setting with fun with friends, fine food

0:00:09.400 --> 0:00:11.880
<v Speaker 1>and drink the Madison Hotel, Rod Steakhouse and g k

0:00:12.000 --> 0:00:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Is Red Dog located on Madison Avenue in Morristown. And

0:00:15.280 --> 0:00:17.040
<v Speaker 1>Eric kind of you have a very special guest who

0:00:17.560 --> 0:00:21.280
<v Speaker 1>just made the second moment ago. That's right, Larry. Let's

0:00:21.520 --> 0:00:25.400
<v Speaker 1>let's bring in the agelest one, Kelvin Pace, who just

0:00:25.560 --> 0:00:30.120
<v Speaker 1>reminded me he's in his NFL season. Calvin, thanks for

0:00:30.200 --> 0:00:34.680
<v Speaker 1>joining us, well, thanks for having me. Kelvin. You've played

0:00:34.680 --> 0:00:36.680
<v Speaker 1>against the Patriots so many times in your career and

0:00:36.720 --> 0:00:39.400
<v Speaker 1>you've been part of this rivalry for a long time.

0:00:40.400 --> 0:00:46.400
<v Speaker 1>What stands out from yesterday's ball game? Uh, Tom Brady

0:00:46.440 --> 0:00:49.240
<v Speaker 1>did it again so us. You know, we just the

0:00:49.360 --> 0:00:51.199
<v Speaker 1>fourth quarter, he kind of heat it up on us

0:00:51.240 --> 0:00:52.920
<v Speaker 1>and we just uh, we couldn't get up to field

0:00:52.920 --> 0:00:55.600
<v Speaker 1>a couple of times. But it always comes out to

0:00:55.680 --> 0:00:59.840
<v Speaker 1>the same factor, trying to defend him and get for

0:01:00.040 --> 0:01:03.080
<v Speaker 1>showing him. Um find a way to get up the field,

0:01:03.080 --> 0:01:06.440
<v Speaker 1>and that's where it always starts. You know, Calvin, it's

0:01:06.440 --> 0:01:09.080
<v Speaker 1>funny because you talked about it and the guys talked

0:01:09.120 --> 0:01:11.600
<v Speaker 1>about it before. It is so tough to get off

0:01:11.600 --> 0:01:13.840
<v Speaker 1>the field on third down with them, and part of

0:01:13.880 --> 0:01:16.240
<v Speaker 1>it is because of what they do on earlier downs

0:01:16.280 --> 0:01:19.160
<v Speaker 1>that sometimes makes that third down on occasion a little

0:01:19.200 --> 0:01:21.520
<v Speaker 1>more manageable for them. Yeah, yeah, you gotta do. You

0:01:21.520 --> 0:01:23.280
<v Speaker 1>have to do a good job in first and second

0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:28.120
<v Speaker 1>down to make that third down longer than say seven yards.

0:01:28.360 --> 0:01:30.600
<v Speaker 1>Make it tough for him. Um, I think that helps

0:01:30.680 --> 0:01:33.920
<v Speaker 1>us out up front getting to him. Um. He gives

0:01:33.959 --> 0:01:35.240
<v Speaker 1>the guys on the back end a little bit more

0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:38.080
<v Speaker 1>time to uh, to stay on them on their man.

0:01:38.200 --> 0:01:40.440
<v Speaker 1>But again, I mean, you have a Hall of Fame

0:01:40.520 --> 0:01:44.760
<v Speaker 1>quarterback who can squeeze throws and windows who you know.

0:01:44.920 --> 0:01:48.040
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you're talking about my age with Now he's scrambling.

0:01:48.280 --> 0:01:50.560
<v Speaker 1>He added that to his game. I'm like, you know,

0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:52.320
<v Speaker 1>back in the day, you know, he just used to

0:01:52.360 --> 0:01:54.040
<v Speaker 1>stand back there, but now he's gonna have to pocket

0:01:54.080 --> 0:01:55.960
<v Speaker 1>a little bit. So he he always finds a way

0:01:56.000 --> 0:01:57.520
<v Speaker 1>to make a play. But it's just that that's the

0:01:57.640 --> 0:01:59.680
<v Speaker 1>challenge to try to find a way to maybe confuse

0:01:59.800 --> 0:02:02.920
<v Speaker 1>him or to get to him. Um, get him off

0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:05.240
<v Speaker 1>the spot. You know, it's it's a game within the game.

0:02:05.760 --> 0:02:09.760
<v Speaker 1>Did they attack you differently in the second half? Obviously

0:02:09.800 --> 0:02:11.760
<v Speaker 1>the offense help you guys in the first half of

0:02:11.840 --> 0:02:15.440
<v Speaker 1>those long drives, the fifteen play the four team play drives.

0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:19.639
<v Speaker 1>And did fatigue be cam become an issue at all

0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:22.120
<v Speaker 1>late for you guys? You know, I don't. I don't

0:02:22.160 --> 0:02:24.680
<v Speaker 1>think fatigue was an issue. I just think that, Um,

0:02:26.760 --> 0:02:29.800
<v Speaker 1>a guy stepped up for and may plays when they counted,

0:02:29.919 --> 0:02:31.919
<v Speaker 1>and Um, it's just a couple instance when we just

0:02:31.960 --> 0:02:33.640
<v Speaker 1>could have got off the field, I think it would

0:02:33.639 --> 0:02:36.520
<v Speaker 1>have been a different outcome. Um. But with that being said,

0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:39.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean we talked about that today. Guys understand they understanding,

0:02:39.160 --> 0:02:42.360
<v Speaker 1>They understood it going into the game. Um, you know,

0:02:42.480 --> 0:02:45.000
<v Speaker 1>you live and you learn. I think it'll it'll help

0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:48.360
<v Speaker 1>us actually moving forward, UM, just to to to build

0:02:48.400 --> 0:02:51.480
<v Speaker 1>off the situation and and go out and play a

0:02:51.520 --> 0:02:53.359
<v Speaker 1>tough open team. Why do you think it will help you?

0:02:53.560 --> 0:02:56.720
<v Speaker 1>And what did you learn about this New York Jets team? Well,

0:02:56.919 --> 0:02:58.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I know we're a fight I know we

0:02:58.320 --> 0:03:01.440
<v Speaker 1>we were not afraid to go on roads win games. Um,

0:03:01.520 --> 0:03:04.160
<v Speaker 1>but it just shows if you have to play four quarters.

0:03:04.400 --> 0:03:08.440
<v Speaker 1>You can't play three great quarters and um, you know,

0:03:08.520 --> 0:03:10.320
<v Speaker 1>lit off the gas on what now you gotta play

0:03:10.320 --> 0:03:14.720
<v Speaker 1>four quarters? And especially with a team like that who's

0:03:15.080 --> 0:03:18.280
<v Speaker 1>done that consistently. We we just have to find a

0:03:18.280 --> 0:03:20.480
<v Speaker 1>way to win that game. Man. It could be special

0:03:20.480 --> 0:03:23.560
<v Speaker 1>team play, it could be uh Chris breaks, a long

0:03:23.639 --> 0:03:25.240
<v Speaker 1>run would have It doesn't matter, but we just had

0:03:25.280 --> 0:03:29.639
<v Speaker 1>to find a way. As you go longer in your career,

0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:32.000
<v Speaker 1>is it easier to put a game like that behind you,

0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:33.760
<v Speaker 1>look at the film and then move on to the

0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:37.520
<v Speaker 1>next team. Yeah, yeah, I mean you know again, you

0:03:37.560 --> 0:03:39.840
<v Speaker 1>gotta spoke on it. I've done it so many times

0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:42.440
<v Speaker 1>against it, against them, so I kind of you already

0:03:42.520 --> 0:03:44.280
<v Speaker 1>know how the story is gonna be scripted. It's gonna

0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:47.720
<v Speaker 1>come down to the last drive for one of the teams. Um,

0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:52.000
<v Speaker 1>but again I've learned to try to take positives, um

0:03:52.000 --> 0:03:53.920
<v Speaker 1>out of woodmen might be looked at as a negative

0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:57.040
<v Speaker 1>as in the loss, and um, you just gotta keep moving.

0:03:57.080 --> 0:04:00.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean, if least come so quick, gotta be able

0:04:00.440 --> 0:04:03.160
<v Speaker 1>to put it behind you. Um, and you can't live

0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:06.280
<v Speaker 1>one loss turning the two losses. She's gotta keep moving forward.

0:04:06.480 --> 0:04:09.480
<v Speaker 1>And how much confidence do you have in the guys

0:04:09.520 --> 0:04:13.080
<v Speaker 1>in that room and your leader, Todd Bowles as far

0:04:13.120 --> 0:04:17.880
<v Speaker 1>as saying, hey, that was yesterday. We corrected mistakes, but

0:04:18.040 --> 0:04:21.240
<v Speaker 1>we've already moved on because the media, as you know,

0:04:21.920 --> 0:04:24.800
<v Speaker 1>is gonna discuss this with you. Yeah, they might even

0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:27.239
<v Speaker 1>bring up the Patriots on one day. But you guys

0:04:27.279 --> 0:04:30.719
<v Speaker 1>going there, you make your corrections today and you're already

0:04:30.720 --> 0:04:33.640
<v Speaker 1>in Oakland. Felt Yeah, it's already been spoken upon. You

0:04:33.720 --> 0:04:36.240
<v Speaker 1>have to move on. But I think coach Bowles did

0:04:36.240 --> 0:04:38.559
<v Speaker 1>a great job just saying this is just game six.

0:04:38.720 --> 0:04:41.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's not like the Super Bowl. Um, it's

0:04:41.760 --> 0:04:43.920
<v Speaker 1>it's the most important game because it's the next game.

0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:45.920
<v Speaker 1>I think that's a great way to look at it.

0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:48.480
<v Speaker 1>I think win lose. With draw, he would have had

0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:53.839
<v Speaker 1>the same um reaction. You know, he's pretty even killed.

0:04:53.920 --> 0:04:56.600
<v Speaker 1>So she gotta keep moving even if we were one,

0:04:56.640 --> 0:05:00.520
<v Speaker 1>He's gotta keep moving forward. Confenations, our guests, Let's talk

0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:04.560
<v Speaker 1>a little bit now about the mindset of going to Oakland. Preparation, travel,

0:05:05.440 --> 0:05:09.039
<v Speaker 1>leaving the day early. But what goes into preparing for

0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Oakland from a travel stample, Oh not a lot really,

0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:15.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you got just pack your bag a day earlier,

0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:18.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, get ready for a little time change. But

0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:21.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, we've got enough guys in the locker room

0:05:21.040 --> 0:05:23.680
<v Speaker 1>who've done it, maybe not the way we do it,

0:05:23.880 --> 0:05:28.359
<v Speaker 1>but they've had experience scoring from east to west. The

0:05:28.360 --> 0:05:31.200
<v Speaker 1>biggest difference is just your rest. Just keep up with

0:05:31.200 --> 0:05:34.320
<v Speaker 1>your rest, stay on point. Um. I mean, I know

0:05:34.400 --> 0:05:36.919
<v Speaker 1>guys will compare the same way as far as film

0:05:36.960 --> 0:05:40.280
<v Speaker 1>and knowing what the game plan is, but that's that's

0:05:40.320 --> 0:05:42.400
<v Speaker 1>probat it just keeping up on rest. And I mean

0:05:42.440 --> 0:05:44.159
<v Speaker 1>the beauty of it is if you get a chance

0:05:44.160 --> 0:05:48.159
<v Speaker 1>to watch college football, um all day because the games

0:05:48.160 --> 0:05:51.599
<v Speaker 1>are earlier, you know, a great time. You big college

0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:54.599
<v Speaker 1>football fan, of course you want to wake forth. Yeah. Yeah,

0:05:54.640 --> 0:05:56.840
<v Speaker 1>we were not doing to uther, but I'm a huge

0:05:56.880 --> 0:06:00.240
<v Speaker 1>college football family. Yeah. And who do you think, uh,

0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:02.760
<v Speaker 1>the top teams this year right now? If you were

0:06:02.760 --> 0:06:06.560
<v Speaker 1>selecting the top four, yeah, the playoff, if you were

0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:08.400
<v Speaker 1>on the committee, who who would you having in it?

0:06:08.560 --> 0:06:12.279
<v Speaker 1>Right now? You gotta go how State. I would have

0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:14.480
<v Speaker 1>said Baylor too, with the quarterbacks out for the year,

0:06:14.520 --> 0:06:16.240
<v Speaker 1>but the freshman is gonna be pretty good. I think, Yeah,

0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:20.039
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be interesting. Um, gotta go TCU I'm gonna

0:06:20.040 --> 0:06:26.800
<v Speaker 1>go Clemson and ah, lets you okay, I took I

0:06:26.839 --> 0:06:29.120
<v Speaker 1>took Baylor out because of the quarterback. All right, yeah, Ale,

0:06:29.360 --> 0:06:30.760
<v Speaker 1>you got a big one with Bama in a couple

0:06:30.760 --> 0:06:34.400
<v Speaker 1>of weeks. Yeah. Uh. Do you agree with the Urban

0:06:34.440 --> 0:06:38.200
<v Speaker 1>Myers troice of starting quarterback? He had to do it.

0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:41.599
<v Speaker 1>He had to do it. I think, Uh, with the

0:06:41.600 --> 0:06:43.560
<v Speaker 1>weapons they had, I think they needed like a true

0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:46.680
<v Speaker 1>quarterback that type of field. I think I like I

0:06:46.720 --> 0:06:49.560
<v Speaker 1>like t Be because he can move the ball in

0:06:49.600 --> 0:06:53.360
<v Speaker 1>the air, but he can run when called upon. Um.

0:06:53.640 --> 0:06:55.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I think Jones had the bigger upside, but

0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:59.640
<v Speaker 1>they just they just wentn't clicking. Now. Of course you

0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:02.880
<v Speaker 1>want to awake. And you started a career with the

0:07:02.960 --> 0:07:07.119
<v Speaker 1>Arizona Cardinals and then you signed a big free agent

0:07:07.160 --> 0:07:10.000
<v Speaker 1>contract with the New York Jets. Do you remember your

0:07:10.120 --> 0:07:13.440
<v Speaker 1>visit because I remember you coming in like it was yesterday.

0:07:13.840 --> 0:07:17.080
<v Speaker 1>The Jets took you up in the helicopter to show

0:07:17.120 --> 0:07:20.640
<v Speaker 1>you the area. Didn't there. Yeah it was. That's the

0:07:20.680 --> 0:07:23.640
<v Speaker 1>best recruiting visit I had, even even to count of

0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:27.160
<v Speaker 1>my college visits. Um. And I made a call that night.

0:07:27.160 --> 0:07:29.760
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I'm coming, I'll be I'll be a jet.

0:07:29.840 --> 0:07:32.880
<v Speaker 1>But it was a day, a weekend that that I'll

0:07:32.920 --> 0:07:36.160
<v Speaker 1>never forget. Um. You know a lot of people don't remember,

0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:39.200
<v Speaker 1>don't know this, but Dave Harris was my host, and

0:07:39.240 --> 0:07:41.440
<v Speaker 1>I always make fun of him because he was, uh,

0:07:41.960 --> 0:07:44.160
<v Speaker 1>he was getting a littlenauseous on the plane. Man, I

0:07:44.160 --> 0:07:46.280
<v Speaker 1>don't know nothing like the helicopter. So I had to

0:07:46.360 --> 0:07:48.520
<v Speaker 1>like easy situation. And I'm like, man, if you would

0:07:48.520 --> 0:07:52.440
<v Speaker 1>have vomited, I wouldn't have came. But but were you

0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:54.160
<v Speaker 1>cool with it? I thought you were scared of being

0:07:54.240 --> 0:07:56.280
<v Speaker 1>out there too. Man. I held it together a little

0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:58.640
<v Speaker 1>better day, man, Just you know, I just kind of

0:07:58.640 --> 0:08:00.880
<v Speaker 1>tried not to look out the window. The product was like, yeah,

0:08:00.880 --> 0:08:03.040
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna tell you guys a little higher. In my mind,

0:08:03.040 --> 0:08:06.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, man, we don't need to go any higher.

0:08:07.080 --> 0:08:09.280
<v Speaker 1>It was a cool time to take you over Manhattan

0:08:09.280 --> 0:08:12.920
<v Speaker 1>and everything right Manhattan. We went out and saw the

0:08:12.960 --> 0:08:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Statue of Liberty Man. They I mean they it was

0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:17.080
<v Speaker 1>it was a show. It was nice, Um. And then

0:08:17.080 --> 0:08:20.000
<v Speaker 1>we came out to Jersey. Um saw the facility before

0:08:20.040 --> 0:08:23.040
<v Speaker 1>it was built, basically just the frame and some dirt.

0:08:23.960 --> 0:08:26.240
<v Speaker 1>Um flew out from what he's farm and flew back

0:08:26.240 --> 0:08:29.880
<v Speaker 1>to Long Island. Wow, it seems like yesterday you talked

0:08:29.920 --> 0:08:34.440
<v Speaker 1>about how Criticason's going, say, you already played six games

0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:36.760
<v Speaker 1>this we believe how quit this is going? Yeah, I

0:08:36.840 --> 0:08:40.240
<v Speaker 1>was flew by. I mean my favorite time of the year,

0:08:40.360 --> 0:08:43.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, training camp ever seemed like that was the

0:08:43.120 --> 0:08:45.640
<v Speaker 1>longest time ever before you know where we're ever in

0:08:45.679 --> 0:08:48.120
<v Speaker 1>week six? So yeah, that's I mean, that's part of

0:08:48.320 --> 0:08:51.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, having that quick memory. You just gotta keep

0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:53.600
<v Speaker 1>moving because before you know, it wouldn't be December. You know,

0:08:54.200 --> 0:08:57.280
<v Speaker 1>you've played money systems throughout your career and you guys

0:08:57.280 --> 0:09:00.600
<v Speaker 1>are always gonna say football's football. But what's the most

0:09:00.640 --> 0:09:07.880
<v Speaker 1>significant different or aspect of this system? Would you say? Um?

0:09:08.040 --> 0:09:12.040
<v Speaker 1>And can comparison with last year? Just everything and everything? Um,

0:09:12.120 --> 0:09:14.840
<v Speaker 1>how would you explain to the Bulls that Casey Rodgers

0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:18.439
<v Speaker 1>approach their system? It's similar. I mean, you know, it's

0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:23.280
<v Speaker 1>just different faces, Um, some different verbiage, but the same.

0:09:23.400 --> 0:09:27.079
<v Speaker 1>It's an attacking based scheme. Um, good front seven rely

0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:30.160
<v Speaker 1>on the back end of covering. Um, It's it's the same.

0:09:30.240 --> 0:09:34.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, we I just think the additions have helped things. Um,

0:09:35.280 --> 0:09:37.680
<v Speaker 1>we're doing a great job creeing turnovers. It's just like

0:09:37.720 --> 0:09:40.600
<v Speaker 1>it's just I think the guys who dealt with last

0:09:40.679 --> 0:09:43.320
<v Speaker 1>year the ups and the downs carried over to this

0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:46.000
<v Speaker 1>year got better and then we had to addison pieces.

0:09:46.000 --> 0:09:48.800
<v Speaker 1>And it's just it's been working. It has been and

0:09:48.920 --> 0:09:51.240
<v Speaker 1>especially those those young guys like in the secondary of

0:09:51.320 --> 0:09:54.360
<v Speaker 1>Marcus Williams, guys like that coming prior had used that

0:09:54.480 --> 0:09:57.199
<v Speaker 1>experience and now they're even better this year. Yeah. Now,

0:09:57.240 --> 0:10:00.040
<v Speaker 1>they did a good job of just build them on

0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:03.320
<v Speaker 1>some good things, some bad things. I mean, you know,

0:10:03.600 --> 0:10:05.959
<v Speaker 1>the shame of it is the best teachers. Some of

0:10:06.040 --> 0:10:08.560
<v Speaker 1>the times, the bad times. You know, things you go through,

0:10:08.800 --> 0:10:12.679
<v Speaker 1>but you you know, you're stick with it. You get better. Um.

0:10:12.840 --> 0:10:15.040
<v Speaker 1>Like you said, they did a good job of just um,

0:10:15.040 --> 0:10:17.280
<v Speaker 1>just learning from good and bad and just carrying it

0:10:17.320 --> 0:10:20.280
