You 4 00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:13,400 Speaker 1: can get rid of if you want to, whatever's easier 5 00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:16,560 Speaker 1: for you. Okay, there we go. Uh so you you're 6 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 1: bye week? You want to watch a little college football 7 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 1: action this week? Got tuned into some college football. Wisconsin 8 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 1: got a little overtime win verse Perdue, which was good. 9 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,319 Speaker 1: And I went to New York for a few days, 10 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 1: so it was good. You could rub it into Rob Nikovic, 11 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,920 Speaker 1: He's gonna be here next hour. Yeah, well, Wisconsin, or 12 00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:35,199 Speaker 1: what about NFL? You watch the games yesterday? You get 13 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:36,760 Speaker 1: away from him? What do you do? Yeah? I definitely 14 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:39,000 Speaker 1: tuned into the games yesterday too. I mean I pretty 15 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:42,159 Speaker 1: much watched football whenever it's on. Kind of a football 16 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 1: junkie in a way. Don't really watch anything else on 17 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 1: TV beside football. So now, Tom mentioned earlier today that 18 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,159 Speaker 1: he spent a lot of the bye week doing a 19 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 1: little self scouting, looking a lot of film of you know, 20 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: his game and how things have gone. Are you a 21 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: self scouting kind of guy as well? Definitely. Um, it's 22 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 1: definitely give you something time to, you know, watch the 23 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: first half of the season season things we did well 24 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 1: as a player and things we don't do well as 25 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: a player, and things we can improve on. And I 26 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,039 Speaker 1: think it just gives you a good beat or what 27 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 1: you can do better, and that kind of help this 28 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 1: team improve. Is you know we go down this final 29 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 1: stretch because it's gonna be a huge six games for us. Now, 30 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 1: you've had more touches this year than you've had your 31 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,199 Speaker 1: previous years in the league. At you know, going into 32 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,040 Speaker 1: what week twelve? Can you feel that on your body? 33 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 1: Is there is there a difference to you me, you 34 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 1: feel a little bit. But I can just take care 35 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,399 Speaker 1: of your body. Um, get the extra treatment, do whatever 36 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 1: it takes so I can go out there and play 37 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: my best and be available. Um. I mean, maybe more touches, 38 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 1: but I still go out there and play my game. 39 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 1: Everybody saw at this point, So there's no excuse ready 40 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 1: that I was telling the story earlier. Today, I was 41 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 1: at my gym on Saturday and Matthew Slater's in there 42 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: taking a cycling class with his wife. Are you a 43 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: guy who works out by week or what are you doing. 44 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 1: I didn't, Yeah smart that some guys. Some guys have 45 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: to stay active. Everybody has a different plan or what not. 46 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: But it's definitely good to get it today. You know, 47 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: get back moving, get up to speed on the jets, 48 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: and you know, get ready to go. Do you do 49 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: any of the hyperbolic chamber stuff or like ice baths 50 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: or like, do you do anything kind of different. I'm 51 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 1: not a fan of the cold stuff. Yeah, I'm not 52 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: a big fan of game and the cold stuff like that. 53 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 1: But you must have seen like everything, but different teammates 54 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: of yours must try every single thing for an advantage. 55 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: I mean, you just gotta find what works for you. 56 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: I mean, everybody's different. Some guys like the cold tubs, 57 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: some guys like the hot tub. It's the sauna, there's 58 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 1: float tanks. There's all different types of things. You just 59 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 1: find out what works for you, the anti gravity stuff. 60 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 1: All right, So help me out here because I've been 61 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: trying to figure this out. You guys have been great 62 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: here at home and not so great on the road, 63 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 1: and that's uncharacteristic for Patriots football. Yeah, man, we just 64 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,359 Speaker 1: gotta find a way to play better on the road. 65 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: Start faster, you know, don't have lolls like like the 66 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 1: Bears game. You starter fast and we kind of had 67 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: some loles in there versus Titans. We didn't play very 68 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: well throughout the whole game. So they're just starting a 69 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: game with energy, paying attention to detail, play as a team, 70 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: playing that complimentary football that we usually do. I think 71 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,239 Speaker 1: it's all about starting fast and you know, keep me 72 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: your foot on the gas the whole game. You guys 73 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: could be getting Rex Burkhead back in another week. What 74 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: would that mean to the backfield to get him back? 75 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: I mean a lot. Rex is a very versatile player, catch, run, block, 76 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 1: I could do things that Sony does, do things that 77 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 1: I do. So definitely keeps a defense all balanced with that. 78 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: And he's a good football player and whenever he can 79 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,679 Speaker 1: get him back, it'll definitely give us a boost. It 80 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 1: sounds as though it's a real possibility that Rob Gronkowski 81 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 1: could make his return this week as well. We know 82 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,639 Speaker 1: what he means in the passing game, but in the 83 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: running game, he's a huge part of what you guys 84 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 1: do as well. Oh definitely, um though I don't think 85 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: he gets enough credit for his block and a lot 86 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: of tight ends they can catch and run routes, but they, 87 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: you know, they can't really hold up against defensive ins 88 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: and he can't. He's a big, physical guy. He does 89 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: a great job for us, not only the passing game, 90 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: of the running game too. Now there's stats for literally everything, 91 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: but one of the stats that's out there now is 92 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: third and short. The last was a five week stale. 93 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: The numbers passing have not been very good at all. 94 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: What do you think goes into That's just execution his offense, 95 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 1: US picking up the blizzes, giving time enough time to 96 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: get rid of the football, us as receivers getting open, 97 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: making the catches, making tough catches sometimes because it's gonna 98 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: be tough catches on third and short. So he's just execution. 99 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: It's about us, not really about the defense. We've talked 100 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 1: about your first ten games. I mean, you've touched the 101 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: ball more than you ever have. You've got great receiving numbers. 102 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: Part of that self scouting thing. What's the thing you 103 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: think you've got to improve on the most. I'm just 104 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: creating more separation, being coordinated with everybody on the offensive line, 105 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: picking up blisses better, just giving time enough time to 106 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: read the coverage out. It's a little bit of everything, 107 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 1: running more physical. I mean, I kind of want to 108 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: improve on everything, even the things that I've been doing well. 109 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: Just keep improving that you can always get better at everything. 110 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 1: So it's not just one thing now that you couldn't 111 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: watch the Jets yesterday they were on a buy as well. 112 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: How much have you already had a chance to take 113 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: a look at what they do? I mean, they're they're defenses. 114 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: You know, they're pretty diverse. They throw all those crazy 115 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: blizzes at you and things like that, and they have 116 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: some good football players, and every time we play those guys. 117 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 1: Uh so there's definitely study up on them, see if 118 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: they're doing anything differently than in the previous years. And 119 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,280 Speaker 1: I gotta be ready to go, uh you know, try 120 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: and get a good division away with should we should 121 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 1: we tag you out here? We'll let you get back 122 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: to work and tagging flowers. Thank you,
