1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Hey, Tom Brady, good morning. Hi, great, good morning. How 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:06,360 Speaker 1: you doing. How are you? I'm doing good. A little 3 00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:10,560 Speaker 1: tired today, but yeah, late back pretty early in the 4 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,360 Speaker 1: morning yesterday. So I try to catch up one sleep 5 00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 1: this weekend. Get ready to go for Sunday. Nothing better 6 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:19,400 Speaker 1: than a nap. Are you a nap guy? I don't 7 00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,239 Speaker 1: get you know, not like I used to, So probably 8 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 1: it's been a long time. Um. Certainly a great performance 9 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:29,640 Speaker 1: the other night. I think there were some who were 10 00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:32,920 Speaker 1: worried about you guys covering the spread and it turns 11 00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 1: out on on both sides of the ball. Pretty good performance, um, 12 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 1: down there at MetLife Stadium. Yeah, it was great to 13 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,560 Speaker 1: win down there. We got out to a fast start, 14 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,879 Speaker 1: and when you do that on the road, it's it's uh, 15 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 1: that's that's all we talk about, is trying to silence 16 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,520 Speaker 1: the crowd, take a little momentum out of the out 17 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 1: of the opposing environment. And our guys did such a 18 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: great job coming out ready to go, and the first 19 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: drive was great. We got to turn over, we didn't 20 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 1: convert on the turnover, but we made the field goal. 21 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 1: We're up ten nothing, and it's just got to continue 22 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 1: to find ways to do that and continue to try 23 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 1: to improve as we go. And you know it's gonna 24 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,479 Speaker 1: I said last week, this is kind of when things 25 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: start to ramp up, and we got to start really 26 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 1: taking all the things we've learned and try to improve 27 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: and execute better do all the things we need to 28 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: need to do to make ourselves a better football team. 29 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,680 Speaker 1: I want to ask the question that everybody's been talking 30 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:36,639 Speaker 1: about this week. What did you give to Marius Thomas 31 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 1: before the before the game in that white box? All right? None, 32 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: it's really, you know, none anyone's business. So all right, yeah, Now, 33 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: he's a good friend and I really enjoyed my time 34 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: with him, and we talked about some things before he 35 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: got traded, and you know, I just wanted to follow 36 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: through with them. So I really enjoyed my time with 37 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 1: him and admired hand for a long time and watched him, 38 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 1: you know, play great the other night. So he's a 39 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: just a great competitor. And uh yeah, that was it. Well, 40 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: I mean, do you feel like if you keep enjoying 41 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: your time on this program, I might one day get 42 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 1: a gift of a white box of some kind. It's possible, 43 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: I don't know, you gotta you know, well, else, sir 44 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 1: for a long time.

Wait, I'm 58 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 1: sure he's on his way to the stadium, or maybe 59 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: he's at the stadium or whatever, and we'll see, Oh 60 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: there he is.

And you're you're off to a good start. 63 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 1: So and so hopefully I always come through from you 64 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: for you? All right? Well, wait till I get to 65 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: some of the questions at the end of this and 66 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: we'll see, Yeah, Um, are you great? You got that 67 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: to look forward to Tom, which is good. That off 68 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: the list. I got to take everything back. How happy 69 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 1: are you that you never have to face this defense? 70 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: This Patriots defense? They're doing great. It's so you know, 71 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: amazing to watch what those guys have done over the 72 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: first seven weeks. And you know, they're just playing well 73 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: at all levels. The fronts, getting to the quarterback, the 74 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: linebackers are just playing great football. Secondary's covering, intercepting, everyone's 75 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: in the mix. So it's been really incredible to watch, 76 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: getting turnovers early in games and given us short fields 77 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: and stopping them on third down limited their scoring opportunities. Um, 78 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: it's just been been amazing to watch. What do you 79 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: think when it comes to snow what do you what 80 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: do you feel like he brings to this offense at 81 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 1: this point in the season. You know how I think 82 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: those things they you know, remained to be seen and 83 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: I think it's one thing to talk about it, and 84 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 1: it's a no thing to go out and do it. 85 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,359 Speaker 1: And I'm excited to have him. I watch him for 86 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 1: a long time I've just heard great things from a 87 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: lot of people who have been around them, And you know, 88 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:50,919 Speaker 1: coach always says, your role is what you make of it, 89 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: and it's really, you know, to be determined by what 90 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 1: we do on the meetings in the practice field, so 91 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: we can gain confidence and trust as quickly as possible 92 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,599 Speaker 1: and lot and try to help us, you know, do 93 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: a better job scoring points. You feel like from the 94 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,159 Speaker 1: perspective of a veteran, it'll be pretty easy for him 95 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: system wise to to fit right in a in a 96 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: pretty quick fashion. I'm not sure. Again it's I've never 97 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 1: you know, been around him or anything like that, but 98 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 1: you know, we'll just have to see how it goes 99 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: and try to improve day to day. And I know 100 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: that sounds like a cliche answer, but that's the truth. 101 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: I mean, you've been in a different offense for a 102 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 1: long period of time and it's not like it's just 103 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: come in and all of a sudden you know everything. 104 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 1: So he certainly knows how to play pro football and 105 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: played at a very high level, so that obviously helps. 106 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,600 Speaker 1: But it's just learning our terminology and then again just 107 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: working at it together. And I said, for a long time, 108 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: it's quarterback receiver relationship is very important. It's very unique. 109 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 1: You know, they can't get themselves the ball and I 110 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,359 Speaker 1: can't do their job. You have to see things the 111 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: same way. You have to react and anticipate the same way. 112 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 1: And I think you see that with players that I 113 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 1: played with for long periods of time, whether it's Dion Branch, 114 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: Try Brown, West, Welker Julian. You know, the years and 115 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: years that we accumulate together and really paying off because 116 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 1: there's a lot of things that you could talk about 117 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 1: that maybe a year ago that come up on a 118 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 1: Monday night game, and then you're able to react and 119 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 1: play fast and anticipate and leads to better execution. You 120 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: already have more road wins than all of last season. 121 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 1: What do you think has been the key this season 122 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: to playing so well away from foxbro Tom, I think, 123 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: you know, our defense, it's just played incredible so Agami, 124 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 1: you can just shut out Miami, to shut out the Jets. 125 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 1: They did a great job against Buffalo, did incredible job 126 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: against Washington, and they're just they're doing a great job 127 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 1: giving us opportunities and giving us the ability to start 128 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: fast and just it's it's been really amazing. To watch 129 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: those guys play and perform, and uh, you know, we've 130 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 1: got some tough onms coming out probably see this one 131 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: is against Cleveland at home. Is a big challenge. But 132 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: we've got a lot of football to play and we're 133 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: gonna have to keep trying to improve, do a better job, 134 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 1: and our defense is going to have to keep doing 135 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 1: what they're capable of doing it all. It's about all 136 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: of us living up and playing to our level of 137 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: expectations and go off to a decent start. But seven 138 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: wins doesn't get you anything, or we're gonna try to 139 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: keep doing a better job. Speaking of the Browns, is 140 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 1: obj the most talented wide receiver in the NFL? Think 141 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 1: this one of those ranking questions at the end. Well, 142 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 1: is he one of the most talented wide receivers? I 143 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 1: think he's pretty exceptionally. Think that's he's got a had 144 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 1: a great career as a as a young player, and 145 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 1: he's very dynamic. They have a very good skill group 146 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: and Nick Chubb is incredible, Um Jarvis Landry's you know, 147 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: playing against him for all those years, he's exceptional player. 148 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 1: Odell's great Bakers, you know, young dynamic players. So they're 149 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: very talented on offense. They've got very talented players on defense. 150 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: They got great secondary, a really good group of linebackers. 151 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: You know, Miles Garrett's one of the most disruptive players 152 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 1: in the NFL. So this is a tough game. This 153 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: is a tough battle. We're on a short week, trying 154 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,679 Speaker 1: to get up to speed with a lot of things. 155 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 1: Try to get a lot of film. Um, you know, 156 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 1: it's been a lot of studying us. They try to 157 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 1: get your body. You're covered a late night, Monday night game, 158 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: you know, getting a bed at four in the morning, 159 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: and you know, a lot of film yesterday and then 160 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: now you know, the foot still on the gas pedal now, 161 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: so no time to slow down. We've got to be 162 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,199 Speaker 1: prepared for their coming off a bye week. We've had 163 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 1: extra days of practice. Um, so we got to try 164 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: to make up some ground on them, and then ultimately 165 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 1: we're gonna have to try to execute better than them. Um. 166 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 1: This weekend, we all heard Monday night, what can happen 167 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: when a quarterback is miked up? Are are you asked 168 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: every week to be miked up and you generally say 169 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 1: no to that? Or what's your philosophy on that? I'm 170 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 1: not asked every week, but they've they've made requests and 171 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 1: so forth. So it's not typically something that I do. 172 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: I kind of leave that for other guys to have 173 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: opportunities for them to, um, you know, get some of 174 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: the the things that quarterbacks usually get. So it's it's 175 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 1: just one of those things, Tom when you have been 176 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: miked up in the past, Are you're more cognizant of 177 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: what you say or is it just something that blends 178 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 1: into the background and you don't even think about it 179 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 1: because you're focused on the game. I definitely think you're 180 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: aware of it some yeah, you're Yeah, I think it's 181 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: a little both. I mean, I think for the most 182 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: part you're folks on the game, but I mean it 183 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: is a little different, and you know, the path that 184 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: they put on you can be a little cumbersome for me. So, um, 185 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 1: I think there's a for me and my view. You know, 186 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 1: give a very intimate relationship with players you play with, 187 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 1: and things that are said in the heat at the moment, 188 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: and then again for people to take those out of context, 189 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 1: you know, not understanding kind of the emotional part of 190 00:10:54,559 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: the sport, they get taken the wrong way. So you know, 191 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 1: that's just part of entertainment. That's what they're trying to 192 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: do with those media types of things. So again, I 193 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 1: think for me during game day, it's just us for 194 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: me to focus on my job what I need to do, 195 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: not add anything extra to what my obligations already are, 196 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 1: which is to go out there and be a great 197 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 1: player for our team. Damn right, that's what we're trying 198 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:27,839 Speaker 1: to do Tom. This week, we have voted the Needham Bank, 199 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: Your Bank, Your Way, Needham Bank Player of the Game. 200 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 1: There were a lot of options. We could have gone 201 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: with a secondary or as we call them now, the 202 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: ghosts who held Darnold to eleven for thirty two and 203 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 1: four picks, the NFL films crew forgetting that lineup, forgetting 204 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 1: that Mike on Sam for that memorable bite. But we've 205 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 1: actually gone with Jets fans as the player of the 206 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: game Monday night for inspiring you to greatness. Because I 207 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: had a chance that I had a chance to talk 208 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 1: to them before the game, and to a man in 209 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 1: the lots, they all said, we do not want Tom 210 00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: Brady to retire because we want to help defeat Tom Brady. 211 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: So would you like to Uh, it's great, yeah, Oh, 212 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: they love you down there, Tom, and I know you 213 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 1: know that we tried to make it a home game 214 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,200 Speaker 1: for you there, but the Jets fans were a loud. 215 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,319 Speaker 1: I just wanted to know if you wanted to take 216 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,319 Speaker 1: a moment to say something to the fans down there 217 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 1: in New York who love you so much and appreciate them. 218 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: That's trying. I hear that when I'm down You know, 219 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: we have a place in New York, so I hear 220 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 1: that quite a bit when I'm walking the streets and 221 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 1: there's a lot of you know, people driving down the 222 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,560 Speaker 1: street that they see me, and so Brady, you you 223 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: know whatever, had a good game Monday, and I'm like, 224 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 1: I'm with my kids, for God's sake, Like, let me 225 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 1: just you know, they don't need to hear some of 226 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,560 Speaker 1: those things that are being said to me, so kind 227 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: of what you hear in the parking lot, there's some 228 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: of the things that I hear when I'm down there. 229 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: So that's just you know, they have a great way 230 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 1: about them and they cheer pretty hard for their team, 231 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 1: and believe me, we cheer pretty hard for our team 232 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 1: up here, and you know, for as much love as 233 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 1: we get from our fans, I think there's a lot 234 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: of opposing environments we go where it's not quite the same. So, uh, 235 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,959 Speaker 1: that's what that's to be expected. That's what good fans 236 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: are all about when it um, when it comes to 237 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: retirement or or or the future is do you find 238 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: the speculation about you to be interesting? And we had 239 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: Adam Schefter during that game talking about you know, your future, 240 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: and I mean, do you find that speculation to be 241 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 1: interesting from my standpoint or from the stand stand from 242 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 1: from your standpoint? Because nobody knows what you're gonna do 243 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: you you're the only one and you may not even know. Absolutely. Yeah. 244 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 1: I think that's the great part for me is um, 245 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: I don't know. And I think that's been a unique 246 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 1: situation that you know, I've been in because I think 247 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 1: when you commit to a team, um, you know for 248 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 1: a certain amount of years, you kind of feel like 249 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 1: your responsibilities to always fulfill the contract. No, for me, 250 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 1: I'm it's been good because I'm just taking a day 251 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 1: by day and I'm joining what I have and I 252 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 1: don't know what the future holds. And the great part is, 253 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: you know, for me, football at this point is all 254 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: barrow time. And I never expected to play twenty years 255 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: and I'm playing on a great team, and you know, 256 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: it's just been a incredible twenty years of my life 257 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 1: and to play for mister Kraft and Jonathan and the 258 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 1: Craft family and to coach Belichick and to have so 259 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 1: much success to dream come true. So I don't, you know, 260 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 1: one day I'll wake up and I feel like, Okay, 261 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: that'll be enough. And when that day comes, that they comes, 262 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: and I don't know what it will be after this year. 263 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know what it will be five 264 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: years from more. But I don't have to determine those 265 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: things right now either, or so that's that's kind of 266 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 1: a good part where I'm at. So I think, just 267 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: take advantage of the opportunity that I have this year 268 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: and do the very best I could do. And then 269 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 1: you know, those two Asians comment, you know, probably more 270 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: appropriate times. I want to get to the quarterback question 271 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: of the week. Baker Mayfield called it an honor to 272 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: spend time with you at the Kentucky Derby this year. Um, 273 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: what's it like to play against guys who grew up 274 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: watching you win Super Bowls? There's pretty much every guy 275 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 1: play against now, is uh, you know grew up watching 276 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 1: me and I heard that quite a bit. So that's 277 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: that's it's been really fun for me as an older 278 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 1: player to see a lot of younger players and developed 279 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 1: relationships and not a lot of guys on my own team, 280 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: but a lot of guys that I watched and admire 281 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 1: and quarterbacks, other positions, um, you know, defensive players that 282 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: I run into over the course of off season, and um, 283 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: you know, I feel like I was a young player 284 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 1: that looked up to older guys at one point and 285 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: it's just now it's a little bit vice versa. Now 286 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: I'm the one that they kind of look up to. 287 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: So I try to be a good example. Um. I 288 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 1: try to provide them with the answers they may have 289 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: to things about their career that they're trying to work 290 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 1: on or you know, be you know, really excel in 291 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: their job, and hopefully I can give them some tips 292 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 1: or a little points of wisdom things that I've been 293 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: through that you help them along the way. So it's 294 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 1: it's pretty cool. Tom. You know, there's always a lot 295 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: of speculation about you, and one of the things that 296 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: I try to do every week with you is give 297 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: you the opportunity to comment to clear the air over things, 298 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: if if, if you want it, and so I do 299 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 1: want to ask you if I know you were a 300 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 1: little frustrated. I think when it came to the line 301 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: of questioning over the weekend about the Netflix thing, is 302 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: is there anything that you want to say about that today, 303 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 1: because because it's been it's been of interest to people. No. 304 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: I appreciate your asking, and I think I you know, 305 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: I answered last week and I'm up. I think it's 306 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 1: about publicity, and you know, I think the particular show 307 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:07,720 Speaker 1: got a lot of publicity and I'm not going to 308 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 1: get me any more than that what they've already gotten.
