1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: All right, Bill, thanks for the time as always. Um,

2
00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:07,039
Speaker 1: I didn't get to ask last night, just the fourth

3
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:10,400
Speaker 1: down decision midway through the second quarter, what were the

4
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:12,920
Speaker 1: factors just based on the way the game had unfolded

5
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 1: to that point that you were balancing in making that decision. Yeah,

6
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:29,639
Speaker 1: need a couple of yards, like we could make it.

7
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:34,640
Speaker 1: And is there any thought at that point in the

8
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 1: game about possessions like a two possession game or is

9
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 1: it just so early in the game that that's not

10
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:43,159
Speaker 1: really part of the thought process there to make to

11
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 1: get within two two scores? H the thought was it

12
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 1: trying to score a touchdown, So that's what we're trying

13
00:00:55,480 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: to do. And then, UM, I was just open I

14
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 1: could ask you just to maybe clarify just one answer

15
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 1: from last night, UM, when when Mark Daniels had asked

16
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 1: you about Jarrett and about his two relief appearances and

17
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: just if you were happy with this development and what

18
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: you've seen from him this season, And at the end

19
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 1: of the answer, I think you had mentioned that that's

20
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: not really the point, and I was just wondering, what

21
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:28,479
Speaker 1: was the point, um, in the context of that back

22
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: and forth. Care Sometimes there's situations in a game where

23
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:44,119
Speaker 1: you can put somebody in, but we're trying to We're

24
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 1: trying to win the game. So that's that's what we're

25
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 1: here for, is to win the game. So it was

26
00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: the opposite situation last week with the Chargers, but the

27
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: points to try to win, I mean, that's that's what's

28
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:12,239
Speaker 1: important to us. Next question, Michael Hurley, fall back Chris Ryan,

29
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 1: hey Bill. The first three or four possessions of that

30
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 1: game were obviously big. After that, it was a pretty

31
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: competitive game Outside of that, I was wondering, with some

32
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 1: time to think about it, how it was that that

33
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 1: they came out the way they did with their chunk

34
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: yards chunk plays and to get ahead so so quickly. Well,

35
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 1: they had a long run that you know, we obviously

36
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,799
Speaker 1: didn't play very well. We're in a zone defense and

37
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,919
Speaker 1: we went for a lot of yards and we're in

38
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: a scoring zone and they ran ran an interception back

39
00:02:53,720 --> 00:03:05,799
Speaker 1: for a touchdown. So next neck Christian Chris Ryan fault

40
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 1: by beIN pull I built. UM. Wanted to get your

41
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 1: evaluation of the overall consistency of the group this year

42
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: and UM, where you think, um the issues lie with

43
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: that potentially? Yeah, I think we've we've pretty consistently gotten

44
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: better over the course of the season, you know, from

45
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 1: about I don't know, a week five or six somewhere

46
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 1: in there. I'm in the first six weeks, five weeks

47
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: or it was a different situation. But yeah, we've gotten better.

48
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 1: Score last night was what it was. But you know, look,

49
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 1: they're a good team and we fell beyond. It's a

50
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 1: hard team to it's a hard team to play from

51
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 1: behind against. And you know, I mean, they're a good

52
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,040
Speaker 1: football team. They've got a good pass for rush and

53
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: do a good job on early downs of you know,

54
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 1: control in the wall, and so that there better than

55
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: we were last night, and that was obvious. So you

56
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: feel the last night was a step backwards per se,

57
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,359
Speaker 1: It was just about more about the rams than it

58
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 1: was about you building the way you want to build. Yeah,

59
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 1: I never said it was a step backwards. They were

60
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 1: better than us last night. Thanks. Next question, Ben Vallan,

61
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:41,839
Speaker 1: followed by Mike Fiori. Good Morton, Bill Um, real quick um.

62
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 1: After a flight home and watching the video, is your

63
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 1: thought still the same that Kim as your quarterbacker? Is

64
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 1: there any chance you might open it up to Jared. Yeah,

65
00:04:54,160 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: I've answered that question for the last time, okay. UM.

66
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 1: On a different note, I wanted to ask you about

67
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: Ray Perkins, who passed away the other day. Um. He

68
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,599
Speaker 1: was the offensive coordinator here in New England in the

69
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,719
Speaker 1: mid nineties. And then if you you know, some some

70
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 1: areas of the of the internet, they say that the

71
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 1: Patriots have run the air Hart Perkins offense over the years. UM,

72
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: I'm just curious if you could talk about Ray Perkins

73
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 1: and maybe the impact he's he's had on the offense

74
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 1: here and the Patriots. Well, I'll start with myself. UM.

75
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,919
Speaker 1: You know, Ray gave me an opportunity and in seventy

76
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 1: nine to go with the Giants and that was, you know,

77
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 1: a life changing moment for me. So UM, I've always

78
00:05:55,040 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: been deeply appreciative and um of that offered unity and

79
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 1: have a ton of respect for Ray, and I learned

80
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,919
Speaker 1: a lot from him in those four years with the Giants.

81
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 1: We developed a very close relationship and you know, I

82
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 1: appreciate all that he did for UM that program, which

83
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: was terrible when he took over in seventy nine too,

84
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 1: you know, make it a highly competitive team in eighty

85
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: one and eighty two was a strike ear and then

86
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 1: when coach Parcels took over. You know, he built that

87
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 1: into you know, a championship organization. So um certainly built

88
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:48,600
Speaker 1: did a tremendous job there and and deserves all the

89
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,359
Speaker 1: credit that he's gotten for the two championships and for

90
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:57,160
Speaker 1: the growth of that franchise. But um, I think he

91
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 1: would tell you and I'd certainly say that, you know, Ray,

92
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 1: Ray had a lot to do with you know, setting

93
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 1: the tone and the first you know, four years of

94
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 1: that development from seventy nine to eighty two, when you

95
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 1: know that team and that franchise was obviously at the

96
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 1: very bottom of the league. Um. You know Ray was

97
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 1: as a former player and coach, he had a good

98
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 1: perspective on the game. Um. You know, played for two

99
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 1: two of the greatest coaches of all time. UM, and

100
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 1: you know his his level of competitiveness and toughness was

101
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: not as good as anybody I've ever been around, you

102
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 1: know with the Patriots, I mean, the the terminology and

103
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: so forth that Ray and Ron used under coach fair

104
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 1: Banks here in the late seventies early eighties. That then

105
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: came to New England with Ray and with Bill because

106
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 1: Bill came from New England too. After the eighty season. Uh. Yeah,

107
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 1: certainly the terminology and a lot of the uh, you know,

108
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: fundamentals of of um our offensive system are still found

109
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 1: um you know, foundations is still in that that offense

110
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 1: from Ray and and uh and Ron back in like

111
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: I said, the late seventies under coach fair Banks. So

112
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 1: he had a he had a big impact on my

113
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:59,200
Speaker 1: life and um my career and uh, I have a

114
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 1: ton of respect or Ray, his family and my personal

115
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 1: you know, sympathies go out, go out to them, and

116
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 1: you know, as part of the Patriots family, of course

117
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 1: we organizationally, you know, feel the same way. So it's

118
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 1: a good man and a good coach and man who

119
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 1: really loved football. And it's very successful at a lot

120
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 1: of different levels. College player, pro player, college coach, pro coach,

121
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,560
Speaker 1: you know, even build a program at Jones Community College there.

122
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 1: So it's very loyal, loyal person that, as I said,

123
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 1: I have a ton of respect for. And so we're

124
00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 1: very sad. They're sad news that we have two days ago. Well,

125
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 1: thank you for sharing and sorry for your loss. Next

126
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: question by Charity Fall by Phil Perry Bill Worry. A

127
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 1: year and a half into into Jared being with the team,

128
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 1: do you know exactly what you have in Jared, and

129
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 1: could you share what you think that is? And I

130
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:33,320
Speaker 1: think I've talked about that multiple times, young young players,

131
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: an ascending player in your mind. Yes, what are some

132
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: of the things that he's shown you in year two

133
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: with obviously an odd offseason that leads you to believe

134
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 1: there's still plenty of growth that's happened and more to come. Yeah,

135
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 1: all the things that we've talked about, It's true most

136
00:10:56,040 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 1: every second year player, knowledge of our system, knowledge of

137
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 1: the league, building good habits, building good fundamentals, gaining experience.

138
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 1: Those things are true for all players at that stage

139
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 1: of their development. And how do you think that he's

140
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 1: handled being Cam's back up so obviously, you know, not

141
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 1: the way the spring looked and looked like maybe he

142
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 1: was going to be the guy. Now Cam gets signed

143
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 1: in June or whatever it was. And how's he handled

144
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 1: that that process? Jared's done everything we've asked him to do,

145
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 1: and he's done everything that he can do, and that's

146
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 1: I don't think you can ask any more of that.

147
00:11:57,559 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 1: Thank you, Bill, looks like the last question me, Philip

148
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: Perry grateful he can mentioned last night on the interception

149
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 1: return for a touchdown play that if he could have

150
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 1: had that one back, he would just spike it essentially

151
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 1: and live to see another down. I'm curious, how would

152
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 1: you assess what you've seen from him as far as

153
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 1: decision making goes. Yeah, that was a tough play. Donald

154
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:35,959
Speaker 1: made a good play, you know, knocked Damian off. I mean, yeah,

155
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 1: he could have thrown into the ground, but I don't

156
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 1: know why he would have thrown it into the ground.

157
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 1: It wasn't Yeah, it really wasn't that kind of play.

158
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 1: It just it's just one of those things that, like

159
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 1: I said, Donald made a good play, knocked the timing

160
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:58,959
Speaker 1: off a little bit, you know, just a tough situation.

161
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 1: But yeah, sure if we had known that would have happened,

162
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,439
Speaker 1: we could have called a different play too. You know.

163
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: That's that's one of those things that you know, we

164
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 1: had a few of them last night, plays that we

165
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 1: just didn't just didn't work out for us, didn't execute well,

166
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 1: or you know, a bad call at the bad time,

167
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 1: or you know, whatever it was, and you know, the

168
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:35,720
Speaker 1: results were what they were. And one late question here,

169
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,559
Speaker 1: Dan road Will gets the final question. I really apologize

170
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 1: you've been asked this stuff before. But um, just did

171
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: you get clarity on the Miles Briant interception as to

172
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 1: why he was ruled down? And just curious you would

173
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 1: know this way better than I would have. Is it

174
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 1: a continuation play that would possibly get him allowed them

175
00:13:56,120 --> 00:14:02,679
Speaker 1: to get up and go in that situation? Yeah, Well,

176
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 1: the officials made the call, and they went and reviewed

177
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 1: it and came back with, you know, the call after

178
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:15,199
Speaker 1: the review. So I think they explained it when they

179
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 1: gave the call then that we can't really hear that

180
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 1: down in the field. But I mean, whatever, you know,

181
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 1: whatever Rolestead said happened, and that's what he saw happen, right,

182
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 1: Didn't he give an explanation of the play? I mean

183
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 1: he overturned the they were ruled to play, didn't Didn't

184
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 1: he give an explanation? You know, because you know with

185
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 1: the rule book, it can be one of those kind

186
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 1: of you know, gray areas. I'm just from your perspective

187
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 1: what you think in regards to a guy he never

188
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: hit the ground and he was he took the ball

189
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 1: from him, but was in the process of and then

190
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 1: get in the process of getting up. What do you

191
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: mean never hit the ground? Well, Myles, I mean Miles

192
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:05,320
Speaker 1: never hit the He hit the ground, but the player

193
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 1: he as he was taking the ball, it was close

194
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: as to whether or not the player that he took

195
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 1: the ball from was touching him, you know what I mean.

196
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: Once he clearly got possession of the ball and took it,

197
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 1: that's all right. Yeah, I think we all understand it's

198
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: a close play. The officials reviewed the play and gave

199
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 1: an explanation for what they saw, So, I mean, what

200
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 1: do you want me to say? They gave the explanation

201
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 1: of the call. That's you know, we also didn't hear

202
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 1: the explanation, bill because when they came back on TV,

203
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: they just came back with you guys at the line,

204
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: you know, at the wherever he intercepted the ball. So

205
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: I think that's also part of it why there was

206
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 1: some confusion on our end. Who weren't at the stadium, Well, Mike,

207
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 1: it was no better where I was, because when they

208
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 1: announced that over a loudspeaker, whether or it's in our

209
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 1: stadium or any other stadium, you really can't hear what

210
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 1: the officials saying. And so you know, I can't tell

211
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 1: you what he said because honestly I couldn't hear it.

212
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 1: They told us they were going to spot the ball

213
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 1: on the whatever it was, the thirty three yard line,

214
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 1: and that was it. I mean to play at ben reviewed,

215
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 1: I mean, what do you help me to do? I

216
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 1: couldn't challenge it. I mean, so whatever the call was,

217
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 1: the call was, if you have a question about it,

218
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 1: you should ask them. Yeah, And we thought about it.

219
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 1: I think in the end we just figured if they

220
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: spotted it there, they must have saw that he was

221
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 1: ruled down. So that was the thought process that on

222
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 1: that end. So I just more wanted egg the perspective

223
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 1: from this end, and it's great to hear your perspective

224
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,800
Speaker 1: on how that works, you know, from the sidelines. So thanks,

225
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 1: thank you coach, Thanks everyone,
