You know, tough to do 8 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:20,040 Speaker 3: in this league, and I'm fusially stringing a couple of 9 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:21,440 Speaker 3: row in a row together. So we go to try 10 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:24,000 Speaker 3: to keep it going and you know, learning some kills, 11 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 3: are learning the win and move on for next week. 12 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 4: Drake, I'm not sure exactly what the game planning looked 13 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,920 Speaker 4: like last week, coming off of Buffalo getting ready for 14 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:35,200 Speaker 4: New Orleans and the Brandon's daily defense, But I can't 15 00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:38,840 Speaker 4: imagine that you gripping it and ripping it and throwing 16 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,600 Speaker 4: multiple fifty plus yard passes was in the game plan? 17 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,959 Speaker 2: Was did you see something heading into yesterday? 18 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:47,839 Speaker 4: Or was that just sort of how the game and 19 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 4: the script presented themselves and then you had the maxie 20 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 4: to let him fly and hit him on the run. 21 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think they're always in the game plan. I 22 00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 3: think sometimes you do sometimes I'm gonna look not there, 23 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 3: so I just kind of, uh, stay off at the 24 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 3: reads and and know that shoot when it when they 25 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,960 Speaker 3: are there, let it rip. And those guys made bridge 26 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 3: plays and very catches. 27 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 1: Obviously not all of them counted, and we'll get to 28 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,480 Speaker 1: some of that later the officiating and things wiped out, 29 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: But you dropped a number of those fifty yard type 30 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 1: passes right in the hands of your receiver and we 31 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 1: as viewers kind of have to watch it play out 32 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:24,120 Speaker 1: on our screen and then we see it hit the 33 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: hands when you release those balls, Like, do you know 34 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,759 Speaker 1: it's a good ball the second that it leaves your hand. 35 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, you a pretty good idea on kind of where 36 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 3: you want to throw it and where it ends up. 37 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 3: Sometimes you get you know, you get tack where we 38 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 3: get hit and you don't know exactly you know where 39 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 3: it lands, so you got to want to replay on 40 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 3: the on the big screen. But know those guys won 41 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,199 Speaker 3: the steps and made a great play and he goes 42 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 3: a questionable fall and then you know, pop, that one 43 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 3: is pretty simple. He's open deep. And then the one 44 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 3: the mclis that would have back. I mean to put 45 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 3: it a little more inside kind of in play to 46 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 3: give them a better chance.

I think you know, 100 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 3: did some more landings, and what I'm focused on when 101 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 3: big team with that is starting making legue contendency. So 102 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 3: that's why I'm pocused on, and I think best stuff 103 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 3: all comes to life when you start lining games and 104 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 3: keep making place. 105 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: Coach Vrabel, in that postgame video on Patriots dot Com 106 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 1: brought up the idea that he senses that you guys 107 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,840 Speaker 1: aren't satisfied that you're winning games, but you're all seeing 108 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 1: before you're even told by coaches what needs to be better. 109 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: I think you actually referenced that post game on the 110 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: field when you said, you know, the defense picked you 111 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: guys up. Are you seeing that in your teammates, your offense, 112 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: people around you that Yeah, they'll celebrate the win, but 113 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 1: everybody's aware of what needs to be better. And is 114 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 1: that a Is that a maturing you're seeing around you 115 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: in this football team? 116 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's good to see.

I think it's tough to come after winning 119 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 3: and be uh disappointed, But I think that's it's good 120 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 3: for the guys to see that he's still you know, 121 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 3: more stuff to put on, taking better football to sell. 122 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 3: I think defensively, uh, you know, the way they made 123 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 3: the gustins out of halftime was huge for offensively applied, 124 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 3: we could have put the game away. And that's the 125 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 3: champions too, you know, the defense for some punts. So 126 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 3: that's that's what I kind of look at it in 127 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 3: few life, and uh, you know, coaches was fun to 128 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 3: remind us and that's what coaching afore.

He had a fever over one hundred on Saturday, 133 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 4: reportedly then had to get an ivy just so he 134 00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 4: could find his way out into the field. He gets 135 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 4: out there, grinds it out, has another great game, plays 136 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 4: really tough. Does that inspire you guys to try to 137 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 4: reach in and find another level of yourselves? 138 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's always pretty cool when you know 139 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 3: guys that are fighting through a little injuries or a 140 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 3: little signifs to be out there and the other the 141 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 3: teammates said goes a long lay, and especially the way 142 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 3: he's been playing this year, it's a good feeling having 143 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 3: you know, ninety seven out there us in the passer 144 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 3: and out there of the defense.

So early 328 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 3: on in my career just kind of you be nice 329 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 3: to rest and hopefully get some get some uh and 330 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 3: and get some call at the end of the day. 331 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 3: But I think those calls just are you don't really 332 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 3: I don't really notice like what they were calling and 333 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 3: what is that in the mindes of downfield? So you 334 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:53,239 Speaker 3: see them back on the tape afterwards, and it's frustrating, 335 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 3: but you know they have a tough job of I 336 00:14:56,080 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 3: think at some point it becomes a little fresh, but 337 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 3: try to hold it on some. 338 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 1: Then it's also hard to go after the referees when 339 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 1: you're already in the bench area celebrating the touchdown you 340 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: think they threw before the five second I mean five 341 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 1: minute later flag right when you're already in the bench area. 342 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 2: That's a little tough, exactly. 343 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 3: I was one of the lace flags I had ever seen, 344 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 3: so we were right. I think I was really walked 345 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 3: off about to sit down. 346 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll say it for you. It's the worst call 347 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 1: I've ever seen, Drake. Appreciate you joining us, and we will. 348 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 1: We'll talk to you next week, but. 349 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 3: Thank you. Every go best
