Is 49 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,479 Speaker 1: there a different approach to the off season trying to 50 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 1: maintain that role. 51 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 3: Uh yeah, I'm sorry. 52 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, I would say so, but I mean, 53 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 2: of course I'm gonna, you know, look back. 54 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 3: Of course, we have meetings today. 55 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 2: I'll talk to the coaches, talk to everybody and understand, like, 56 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 2: try to get a better idea of you know what 57 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 2: exactly some of the things that I need to work 58 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 2: on to get better at. So before next season, you know, 59 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 2: I have those things fixed, then we can hit the 60 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 2: ground running. 61 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 1: What to say about this team that we never saw 62 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: quite no matter how tough of God to certain points 63 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: and losing streaks will have you, but you never saw 64 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: his locker room give up on each other. 65 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean we, I mean we said every day 66 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 2: that we're playing for each other. 67 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 3: We're playing for one another from. 68 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 2: The moment that you know, of course, I think whenever 69 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 2: we got eliminate from playoffs. 70 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 3: I mean, that was kind of the model for us. 71 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 3: We're playing for each other. 72 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,639 Speaker 2: We understand that, you know, there's no future, of course, 73 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 2: but we're playing for one another, playing for pride, and 74 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 2: we're playing for the logo in front of our jersey, 75 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 2: and that's for the Patriots. So that was kind of 76 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 2: what everybody talked about what we wanted to do. 77 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: Pill it's off and so that quarterbacks can make a 78 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: big jump from your two to year three. 79 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 2: And for yourself for next year, any specific goals for 80 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 2: you for next year and waste room proof? 81 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, of course, eliminating turnovers. 82 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 2: That's probably the biggest thing as you look back through 83 00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 2: you know, these six games that I started, those are 84 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 2: the things that you know, kind of stand out. Of course, 85 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 2: you know if you take those away, you know what 86 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 2: happens these last six games, who knows. So those are 87 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 2: things that throughout this offseason, watching film, get with the coaches, 88 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 2: kind of get a better understanding of you know, how 89 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 2: to eliminate those and do a better job at that. 90 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 2: Then of course we'll win a lot of games next year. 91 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: Really, there there could be a lot of changes year 92 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: given the situation in the last two years, the year 93 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: or somewhere else to go, you pr the chance to 94 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,359 Speaker 1: be a start in this state the next year. 95 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 3: I mean yeah, of course, you know. 96 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 2: Other confidence myself to know that I think I can 97 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 2: go out there and lead a team and win games. 98 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 3: Of course I won't want to be here. I wanna. 99 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 2: I mean, I've I've always learned to play in the NFL, 100 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 2: and of course I want to be a Patriot.
