1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:03,440
Speaker 1: Coach, could you speak to the job that Brian Dable

2
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 1: has done this year for you? He's done a good job,

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:12,399
Speaker 1: you know. Uh, he's in the second year of building

4
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:15,080
Speaker 1: an offense, albeit there's a lot of new members of

5
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:18,360
Speaker 1: that offense this season, UM, and and building a good

6
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 1: foundation through that in order for us to continue to

7
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: grow as we moved forward, Um in the years ahead. Um, coach,

8
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 1: you guys didn't have Devin Singletary in the first Patriots matchup. Well,

9
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:33,639
Speaker 1: what is the young running back added to your offense? Well,

10
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 1: he's just a good football player. UM. You know, he's

11
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 1: he's learning, he's growing as a young player. Um. He

12
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 1: does a really good job. I love his mindset. He

13
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: works extremely hard. Coach to piggyback off that. How much

14
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 1: has has having Frank Gore there been an influence on

15
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 1: on Devin? Yeah, he's been. He's been a significant influence

16
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 1: on Devin and our and our football team. Um, Frank's

17
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: you know obviously, well we'll accomplished in this league. UM.

18
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 1: And the habits that he's brought, the healthy habits that

19
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 1: he's brought to our building. Um. It gives guys a

20
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 1: chance to see that close and that's been good for us.

21
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: Um your your team's Twitter account posted a video the

22
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: other day. You guys got home at like two in

23
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: the morning and it's freezing cold out and you had

24
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 1: throngs of fans waiting for you at the airport and you've,

25
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: guys clinched the playoffs, you're fighting for the AFC. He's

26
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 1: what doesn't mean for you to be in the spot

27
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: give more of the organization has been Yeah, I appreciate that.

28
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: It's um, you know, it's humbling obviously from my standpoint. Um,

29
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: you know, it's taken a lot of work. We're not, um,

30
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: haven't accomplished obviously the major goal of while we're here.

31
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 1: But that said, there are steps along the way and

32
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 1: we've certainly hit some hit some of those steps. Um, um,

33
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 1: you know, and with more challenges ahead, and that's what

34
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: we have to understand. How big a game would you

35
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: say this is for the Bill's franchise and having a

36
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: chance to take the still having a chance to take

37
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: the AFC East this late in the season and reversing

38
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: a trend of the picture's really dominating the division over

39
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:15,079
Speaker 1: the last decade or two. Well, it's just it's a

40
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 1: it's an opportunity for us to continue to grow as

41
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: a football team. UM. You know, we certainly respect the Patriots.

42
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: They've reigned over this division by far for a long time. UM.

43
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 1: So to have this, um, you know, a game like this,

44
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 1: UM this at this at this point this season, our

45
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 1: players have worked hard for it. UM. And so you

46
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: earn everything you get in this league and UM and

47
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: so we've they've earned that, but we're gonna have to

48
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: earn it this weekend because you know, the Patriots, they

49
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 1: play well, and especially down the stretch. Patriots had four

50
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 1: interceptions in that Week four game. Just how much of

51
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,679
Speaker 1: a challenge is this secondary to to go against for

52
00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: your offense. Yeah, they're they're extremely talented. They played well

53
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 1: together and they seemed it they're on the same page

54
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 1: with a lot of the things that they do. And UM,

55
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 1: you know, it's been built well by by by coach

56
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: Belichick and he's got some really good players back there

57
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: in a really good system, really good scheme. Coach. Prior

58
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,079
Speaker 1: to the last game, it seemed like you were a

59
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: little upset with a couple of Patriots staffords pregame, just

60
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 1: just wondering what happened there and did you have to

61
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,640
Speaker 1: have any talk with the Patriots coaching staff about the

62
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: events leading up to that. Yeah, no, it's not I'm

63
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 1: not going to comment on that. That was that was

64
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 1: the last game. I don't think it worth getting into.

65
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: You guys have had a number of wins where you've

66
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 1: fallen behind and then come back. What is it about

67
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 1: this team that's able to do that fairly consistently? It

68
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: would be nice if if we could get ahead and

69
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: stay ahead about that. It just shows me we've got

70
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: work to do. Um. No, it's look, I think that

71
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: that's partly the NFL. Um that that's how the games are.

72
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 1: You know, there's a lot of parody in the NFL.

73
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: There's a great competition, which is why it makes it

74
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 1: you know what makes it the best sport going um

75
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 1: and to me, the most fan friendly sport. So um,

76
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,840
Speaker 1: you know, we just we just are. Our players are resilient,

77
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 1: Our coaches do a good job of adjusting through the game. UM,

78
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 1: and that's that's a credit to their communication. And uh,

79
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 1: and some we've won and then then a couple we've lost.

80
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 1: But um, I think it just shows um, some of

81
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: those things. Uh. Patriots offense obviously has had a lot

82
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,599
Speaker 1: of different pieces this year. UM, I'm just curious that

83
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: this Patriots offense, where do you see the challenges are

84
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: defending them? The Patriots offense? You said, yeah, yeah, Um,

85
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: well where do you want to start, um, Tom Brady, Um,

86
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 1: you know, offensive line. They've got a good running back,

87
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: a couple of good running backs, at talent at the

88
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 1: wide receiver position, but they're they're tough to defend. Coach,

89
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 1: where have you seen Josh's greatest area of improvement this season,

90
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,599
Speaker 1: particularly from the last time he played the Patriots? I

91
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 1: just think understanding probably our system better and what we're

92
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: trying to do on each each and every play, in

93
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: each and every situation. Yeah. I think he threw three

94
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,479
Speaker 1: picks in that game, and he may not have thrown

95
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 1: three picks since then. Just what what what has been

96
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 1: the biggest change from him in that sense? Yeah? Um,

97
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 1: you know, kind of a similar similar answer um here

98
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 1: with just him understanding how to play the game in

99
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 1: the NFL, how to how we want to play our offense,

100
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 1: how to play situational football. Um, just just really a

101
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:51,559
Speaker 1: part of his growth and development. Um. From that standpoint, Coach,

102
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 1: what makes Gillette Stadium a tough place for opposing teams

103
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 1: to play, especially late in the season. Well, they are

104
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 1: to the to these style games, you know, Um, I

105
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:08,239
Speaker 1: would say that's probably better question for of course Pelichick. Honestly, UM, certainly,

106
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: the thing that is the obvious is the level of

107
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:17,719
Speaker 1: the competition, UM, talent of the football team and and

108
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:21,719
Speaker 1: U and on what they do and how well they play. Sean,

109
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 1: What what makes Tradavious White um a top player in

110
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 1: his position? In your view? I just think he Um,

111
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 1: he understands, Um that it takes work in this league

112
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: to be good. And UM, he's not afraid to work.

113
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 1: He's not afraid to prepare. UM, he knows he has

114
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: to have mental toughness to play this league. And he

115
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: respects every opponent. And that being in Western New York, obviously,

116
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 1: Jim Kelly is a legend there and elsewhere. I'm curious

117
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,840
Speaker 1: what you've come to know about Jim just from your

118
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: time as a head coach there. Yeah. UM, you know,

119
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: Jim is obviously well respected around here, and for for

120
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 1: for good reason. UM. You know, he's he's been nothing

121
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 1: but supportive of what we've tried tried to do. UM,

122
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 1: and you know his story is inspirational in a lot

123
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: of ways, not only all in the field, but off

124
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: the field, and I just think it's a good it's

125
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: a good partnership, and you don't always see that in places,

126
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: you know, where you have a legend like Jim and

127
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 1: that's a healthy partnership with the team next amount of

128
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 1: years after he finished playing. So I certainly appreciate that,

129
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 1: any kind of question, thank you, thank you, thank he
