1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,560 Speaker 1: Good morning, Bell. 2 00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:04,120 Speaker 2: How are you good? Good? Nice to get a win, 3 00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:06,680 Speaker 2: always always good, always good. 4 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 1: One your three hundredth win. I know you said you'll 5 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,319 Speaker 1: talk about that later. When are you going to talk 6 00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:11,720 Speaker 1: about that? 7 00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 2: Right now? We're focused on Miami right now, so focused 8 00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:18,120 Speaker 2: on Miama, focused on Miami. 9 00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:21,120 Speaker 1: We've been having a little discussion back and forth here 10 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:25,639 Speaker 1: as we always do about Mac. Jones thought Mac had 11 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 1: shine refuses to say he said he had a good game. 12 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 1: He started off fine. Then he said, good, what did 13 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 1: you see from Mac yesterday? 14 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,960 Speaker 2: Yeah? Well, I just say offensively, you know, one of 15 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,160 Speaker 2: our better performances, had some consistency, move the ball, scored 16 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,280 Speaker 2: some wards. So those are all good things. Max's a 17 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:43,959 Speaker 2: big part of that. 18 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 3: But when you look at what you were able to 19 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 3: do defensively, I mean I thought you did. Guys did 20 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,280 Speaker 3: a great job all day long, especially when you start 21 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 3: the game off. Would uh turnover? Which defensively you guys 22 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 3: are able to do. What's that like for the morale 23 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 3: of the team. When you're able to play like the 24 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 3: way you guys are playing, especially starting off early like that. 25 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll turnover is big. First players turnover, last plays turnover. 26 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,960 Speaker 2: So those are good things, but you know they're tough. 27 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 2: I mean, obviously a great quarterback, harder tackle and big 28 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 2: arm and all that, so you know, you just try 29 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 2: to limit the damage that he does. There's gonna be some, 30 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 2: but you try to limit it. And you know, I 31 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 2: thought we went out there and competed well. 32 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,680 Speaker 4: Bill, the old line had the best game of the 33 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 4: season so far. You look at what they made it 34 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 4: look like. They made it look easy for mac Jones, 35 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 4: They made it look easy for Zeke and Ramandre. What 36 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 4: clicked in this game for them? What do you think 37 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,039 Speaker 4: was the difference maker for this game? 38 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 2: All right? I don't think it was easy. It's never easy, right, 39 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 2: So yeah, again, it's a you know, team offense. There 40 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 2: were some good things with the offensive line. You know, 41 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 2: our receivers, backs did a good job running with the ball. 42 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 2: Back made some good plays tight ends. I had a 43 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 2: couple of big catches, so, you know, a lot of 44 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 2: contributions from different areas. I don't think it was just 45 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 2: one guy or one thing, but you know, overall, complimentary football, offense, defense, 46 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 2: special teams. It was just, you know, a better all 47 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 2: around game from everybody. 48 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 1: That's we need twenty three seconds left in that game, 49 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 1: Matt came over and talked to you. What'd you say 50 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: to him? 51 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 2: We were just talking about the situation no timeouts and 52 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,399 Speaker 2: high score. You know how I want to play it. 53 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,359 Speaker 2: It's really pretty straightforward, just. 54 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 3: Turned out well, Bill, When you look at that situation, 55 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 3: it's interesting to see if you kind of go back 56 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 3: on that last kind of series before Koseki Kids is 57 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 3: the game winner. The play before that, you run the 58 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 3: same exact play with Pop Douglas from the slot, and 59 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 3: then the next play looks like it's the same route 60 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 3: where it's like an inside kind of option route slant 61 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 3: that both of the guys ran. Was there something that 62 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 3: you guys saw that led you to just change up 63 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 3: the personnel group to almost run the identical pass play 64 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 3: which worked out for Koseki from maybe something you notice 65 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 3: the play before with Douglas. 66 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, well it was a different personnel group and on 67 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 2: Pop's play that was ended up being a seve man 68 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 2: protection they blitzed, and then on the last play we 69 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 2: substituted and we had four players out in the route 70 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 2: instead of three, so it was a little bit different. 71 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 2: But yeah, the idea was, you know, to throw the 72 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 2: ball up there you know, hide to Mic, and you 73 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 2: know Mike's made that catching practice. You know a lot 74 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 2: is good throw, good catch and you know, big time 75 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 2: to hit it. 76 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 4: So Guseki gave a lot of credit to Mac after 77 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 4: the game and said that the feedback from fans for 78 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 4: media personnel have been unfair their criticism of Mac at 79 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 4: the beginning of the season. Do you fall in that 80 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 4: same category thinking that it's been unfair treatment towards Mac? 81 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 4: Or is that just part part of the territory when 82 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 4: when you're a quarterback of an NFL team. 83 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I think we all just got 84 00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 2: there and try to the best we can, whatever it 85 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 2: is it is. 86 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 3: Did you notice anything like early kind of the you know, 87 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 3: I know they talked about on the broadcast, they talked 88 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 3: about Sean McDermott make taking over as the play call 89 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 3: a little bit more aggressive. Is that is that something 90 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 3: that you guys knew going into this, like with him 91 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 3: calling plays, they're gonna be a lot more aggressive, So 92 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 3: get the ball all quickly, make sure the protection's right. 93 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 3: Is that something that offensively that you guys were on 94 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 3: the page of We have to be aware of this 95 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 3: because he likes to be a little bit more aggressive, 96 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 3: and he showed that at times throughout this game. 97 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's kind of what they do, I think. 98 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 2: I think when you look at the game, look, they 99 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 2: have a good variety of calls and they pick the 100 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 2: ones they want to run in each game. I think 101 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 2: once you get into the game, you see able to 102 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 2: have more of There are more of these calls than 103 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 2: some other ones on that particular game. And so you know, 104 00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 2: our a game declared pretty early and they brought the 105 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 2: safety down to mostly Poyer, you know, to stop the run, 106 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 2: blitz some off the edge. You know, that got us 107 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 2: a couple of times. We got them a couple of times. 108 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 2: So that that's kind of what they do. Yeah, they 109 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 2: and they mix it up. I mean, you can't count 110 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 2: on it, but that's one of the safeties. Do a 111 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 2: good jobs skies and hiding Poyer and and Johnson too 112 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,479 Speaker 2: because he's really part of it. And so you know, 113 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 2: they gave us, you know one look though it was 114 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 2: a little bit different, it was still a three D zone. 115 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 2: They just played it a little bit differently. But you know, 116 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 2: that's that's kind of what they do. They they have 117 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 2: a good package, they disguise, they mix it up and 118 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 2: so you know a lot of times, most of the 119 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 2: time you don't really know what they're until after the 120 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 2: ball snap. They don't give it away early, and that's 121 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 2: that's why they're good. 122 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: Postgame, you described that miss Buffalo field goal as looking 123 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 1: like one of your five irons. Are you are you 124 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 1: better off the tee or a short. 125 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 2: Game guy, or well, I think that was just the 126 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 2: you know, look at what it was like out there yesterday. 127 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 2: There was it was wasn't an easy day to kick, 128 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 2: and and the ball started going a little white right 129 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 2: and then it just you know, kind of went quickly 130 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 2: to the right. So yeah, it's just a hard day 131 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 2: to kick. You know, the cross wind was blowing from 132 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 2: our bench to their bench and a little bit down 133 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 2: the field, but mostly across. But on the longer field 134 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,279 Speaker 2: goals you just have to, you know, figure out how 135 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 2: much to play it and you know it's gonna move. 136 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 2: Just how much is it going to move? And when 137 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 2: is it going to move? And you know it it 138 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 2: was hard kicking. 139 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: There was a report, are you a hot dog get 140 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: the turn kind of guy? 141 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 2: Sure? Yeah, pass. 142 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 5: There was a report in the last home game that 143 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 5: said that you would noticed that the wind shipped the 144 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 5: lighthouse had changed the wind dynamic. Is that true. Has 145 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:48,599 Speaker 5: the stadium been made into a different environment win wise 146 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 5: given the new addition in the back of the end zone. 147 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I know we saw that last year as 148 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 2: it was being built. Changed from week to week, but yeah, 149 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 2: changed there of the course of the season. Last year. 150 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: Diesel Direct Player of the Game is Popped Douglas. A 151 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 1: little bit about what he brought yesterday. 152 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I thought the pun return was a 153 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 2: you know, a really good run. Kind of got a start, 154 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 2: it give us a good, good field position. There after 155 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 2: we uh, you know, it stopped them defensively, got the 156 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 2: ball back and I had a couple of good catching runs. 157 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 2: I thought the catching made you know, down't go on 158 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 2: at the end of the game. Was a really good 159 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 2: catch that was tough, tough play to make, you know, 160 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 2: extended made a good catch. So yeah, nice, uh, nice 161 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 2: game for him. Bill. 162 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 3: When you when you you look at what you've done 163 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 3: to what you did to Steph Diggs in this game, 164 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 3: I think I think you could see the frustration in 165 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 3: him early. So when you're going into this game plan 166 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 3: with you Steve and Gerard, what what's kind of the 167 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 3: overall scheme. Is it like, all right, we're going in, 168 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 3: We're gonna try to take away Steph Digs, not allow 169 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 3: him to get going and try to make play other 170 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 3: players beat us in other areas. Or is it a 171 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 3: we showing them a little bit of something one way 172 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 3: where it thinks, oh, would take them away, but then 173 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 3: we're kind of rolling coverage. Just kind of give me 174 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 3: a little window into what your plan was heading into this, 175 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 3: because I felt like you guys did a good job, 176 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 3: especially early in the game with Diggs. 177 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I think what you said is that's kind 178 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 2: of it. You know, look, they have a lot of 179 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 2: great players and a good quarterback and multiple good receivers 180 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 2: and tight ends and good running back. So but Diggs 181 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 2: is you know, clearly the number one problem second most 182 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 2: targeted player in the league. So yeah, there were times 183 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 2: where we took him away. There were other times where 184 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 2: we tried to make it look like we were taking away, 185 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 2: but we really weren't. Hoping that we could kind of 186 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 2: discourage you know, the quarterback from throwing over there and 187 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 2: then try to get the coverage you know, somewhere else 188 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 2: and tighten it up there and just to mix up 189 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 2: some man mixed sens his own and try to, you know, 190 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 2: just try to make it as difficult as possible for 191 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 2: him to get cleanly into you know, the release and 192 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 2: into his route. So you know, those guys did a good 193 00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 2: job on him. But you know, ultimately, you know, he 194 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 2: he got a couple of us, and you know he's 195 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 2: a great player. 196 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:07,959 Speaker 1: Bill, Mike Rabel and Dante Scarnekia inducted into the Patriots 197 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame on Saturday. I know you had a 198 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 1: lot to say about both of those guys. I wanted 199 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 1: to ask you about Mike Rabel and and I guess 200 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 1: other players. Did you do you ever look at a 201 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 1: player and think that guy might might make a great 202 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: coach someday, And did you think that about Mike Rabel? 203 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 2: Sure? Yeah, I think Mike was I think everybody that 204 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 2: coached Mike or was around Mike could see, you know, 205 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 2: Mike being a coach. And he had a you know, 206 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 2: a real very smart player, uh and not just at 207 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 2: his position, but also a roll situationally of course played 208 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 2: tight end, you know, shortyarded situations, played in the kicking game, 209 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 2: but he always had a real, you know, natural thirst 210 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 2: for knowledge about situation football and schemes and things like that, 211 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 2: and uh yeah, I think you could see it with Mike, 212 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 2: and you know, it didn't take him along to you know, 213 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 2: finished playing go to Ohio State and Houston and Tennessee. 214 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 2: So I mean, I think, you know, he's got a 215 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 2: great you know, a great advantage with the playing experience 216 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 2: that he has plus his overall football knowledge, you can 217 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 2: put it all together.

Sure he's a great coach. 219 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: Probably not every guy that can get away with asking 220 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: you away yourself. 221 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 2: Mike, Mike and Matt Lighte.

Is there any well, at any 277 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 3: point in time do you ever think started long maybe 278 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:05,959 Speaker 3: we'd throw away at the d line, see if we 279 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 3: can get him some sacks. 280 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 2: I can't remember ever thinking about that. 281 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 3: All right, Well, I mean Vrabel was able to do it. 282 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 3: I just feel like, you know, two kids that are 283 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 3: playing D line. I feel like I gave him a 284 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 3: little bit of knowledge. 285 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 2: I'm sure. Yeah, I'm not sure.

It was 289 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 2: always surprising to me that they didn't cover him better 290 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 2: than they did. I think we ran behind him like 291 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 2: twice in his whole career, and those are probably when 292 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 2: you know it didn't matter, you know, just to show 293 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 2: a tendency that we would do it all right, all right. 294 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 1: Time for the Coaches Verdict, presented every week by Catches 295 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 1: Law Group, New England's injury pros at Catches Law dot com. 296 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,199 Speaker 1: Catches is proud to be the official law firm of 297 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: the New England Patriots. 298 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:02,199 Speaker 5: So on that induction on Saturday night, it was really 299 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 5: great to see you and the crew in a different light, 300 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 5: and everybody, to a man that came up, whether it 301 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 5: was Vable or Romeo Crenell or yourself or Dante, talked 302 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 5: about the culture and accountability that what really defined those 303 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 5: championship teams was they were accountable on the team to themselves, 304 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 5: not more so than to anybody else.
