That's 61 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 3: what we said in the beginning of the week. You 62 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 3: wanted to go eight and zero on the road. You know, 63 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 3: a special thing that you could do in this league 64 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 3: of of going on if you down the road and 65 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 3: the seasons, that's that's pretty tough to do. So we're 66 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 3: glad we accomplished that. And it was uh one of 67 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 3: his mindsets. We kept on thinking the whole year, pack 68 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 3: our identity in the suitcase and and don't just pack, 69 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,079 Speaker 3: you bring it out and showcases. I think we did that. 70 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 2: See uh the Fox cameras showed you. 71 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: They did a little montage of you pointing to the 72 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: sideline after every touchdown. We've talked to you a little 73 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: bit about that, but is it safe to say yesterday 74 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: was one of those days where Josh McDaniel's your play caller, 75 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 1: was sort of in his bag. Seems like almost everything 76 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: he drew up, called up was working for you guys. 77 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's in his bag every week. We just got 78 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 3: to go out there and execute it. You know, I 79 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 3: think it's your plays are a big deal, but you know, 80 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 3: us players executing the plays is a bigger deal. So 81 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 3: he does his part, and those coaches do their part 82 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 3: every week. We just got to go out there and 83 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 3: execute their you know, what they expect to happen, or 84 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 3: the adjustments that we get from what they think what 85 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 3: we get, and then just play from there and just 86 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 3: be instinctive. And I think that's the best thing we've 87 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 3: been doing lately, is just play instinctive and and not 88 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 3: really worried about too much what they're doing, more worried 89 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 3: about what we're doing what we can could control. 90 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 4: I know you were very deferential and humble when you 91 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 4: found out what company you're now a member of in 92 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 4: terms of the four thousand yard club.

He can do 124 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 3: it against anybody. So uh, now he ran a great route. 125 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 3: He made another big time catch. I thought he could 126 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 3: have scored on if you didn't you know, have a 127 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 3: little pop Douglas and stumble on his own seat.

He 129 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,359 Speaker 3: did some work in the run game block in he 130 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 3: uh he had to play before that a big third 131 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 3: down where we had a bigger play where he uh 132 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 3: he picked somebody off and and a man coverage and 133 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 3: got manre opened to the flat on a big third down. 134 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 3: So I'll a see more problem for that than the 135 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 3: than the third down, uh than the touchdown catch. He 136 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 3: just keeps on doing the right things, and he wants 137 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,479 Speaker 3: to be a great player in this league.

Running out in the field and then was 184 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 4: prowling up and down the sidelines may have muttered some 185 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 4: colorful language to some of your fellow teammates about how 186 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 4: he felt towards the Jets.

We saw that little video. 202 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: But what was it like experiencing that watching the Bills 203 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: game and clinching those hats and T shirts on the 204 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: bus yesterday? 205 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was. 206 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 3: Watching some of the guys in the bus.

Souther our teammates after we got 211 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 3: home from the trip, and I mean all the crazy 212 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 3: game that was crazy ending, but like I said, we 213 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 3: were I wish we would have done earlier, but no, 214 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 3: glad end up happening, and I still got some some 215 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 3: work left. 216 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,680 Speaker 4: Like I said, yeah, I can't imagine you have many 217 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 4: regular season goals left now just one game remaining. And 218 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 4: now what is likely the biggest game of your life, 219 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 4: your first NFL playoff game to come, maybe in two weeks, 220 00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 4: perhaps in three weeks. We'll see what the seeding is 221 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,839 Speaker 4: after Sunday. But what game previously holds the record for 222 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 4: biggest game you ever played. 223 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 3: Biggest game you've ever played. I'll think the next one, 224 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,839 Speaker 3: the next one that I played, is the biggest game. 225 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,439 Speaker 3: So we got the Dolphins here this Sunday. So I'll 226 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 3: try to talk in the past or talking in the future, 227 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 3: just talk about what's worrying about now. 228 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 1: What would you say if somebody on the radio said 229 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: it's Super Bowl or bust for the New England Patriots. 230 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,679 Speaker 3: I think they can have their own opinion.

So I think super Bowl 234 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 3: or bus I'm I'm not even sure what that term 235 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 3: exactly means. I know a lot of people say it, 236 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 3: but I'll think, you know, everybody in the NFL super 237 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 3: Bowl or bust at the at the beginning of the year, 238 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,319 Speaker 3: and it's whoever tries to make it. 239 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, would have been a pretty empty stadium. I know, 240 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 4: each and every week we like to talk about how 241 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 4: much the Patriots fans support has meant to you guys 242 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:56,959 Speaker 4: along the way this season, would have been a pretty 243 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 4: empty stadium if the Pats fans didn't show up yesterday. 244 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 4: How how nice was it to see MetLife Stadium Jet 245 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 4: Life Stadium full of more Patriots fans the Jets fans. 246 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, man, that was cool to see. I saw Patriots 247 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 3: fans galore out there yesterday. And you know, they, like 248 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 3: I said, every week, they show out and show up, 249 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 3: and I'm gonna keep on giving them a reason to 250 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 3: show up. And hopefully this uh, these next two home 251 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 3: games that we got will be uh, you know, great environment. 252 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 1: We we haven't had a chance to talk to you 253 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: since the holiday.

I'm not sure if you've 343 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 4: gotten into that, So doing Chinese takeout in movies may 344 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 4: or may not. 345 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 3: May not. I'm not a big fan of Chinese food, 346 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 3: so I'm more like. 347 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 2: Five guys or something nice. 348 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 1: And finally we ask you a lot about MVP awards 349 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 1: and you sort of are deferential. There's another guy in 350 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: this town having an MVP caliber season. Jalen Brown is 351 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: killing it for your Boston Celtics. Jalen Brown as a 352 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: legitimate NBA MVP candidate. 353 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 2: May Or may not. 354 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 3: Oh, I think one hundred percent. I think what had 355 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 3: how many games are forty plus? I think he just 356 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 3: had a couple of games of forty Yep, he's doing 357 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 3: whatever they need to and he can score the ball 358 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 3: will and he does it so nonchalantly it looks like 359 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 3: he's not even trying out there. So he came out 360 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 3: of my brother's class, thought about going with my brother 361 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 3: in North Carolina, but he ended up better off whatever 362 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 3: he decided to do going to cal So I think definitely. 363 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 4: For sure, you guys are the tides that are raising 364 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 4: Boston sports once again, and it's awesome to see finally 365 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 4: for me, Drake, you know now you're up in New 366 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 4: England winter time. Obviously different sports down in North Carolina, 367 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 4: but up here ice skating, sledding, skiing, may Or may not, 368 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 4: are you into the winter sports? 369 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 3: Oh, I'm probably fifty fifty. I'm half in, half out. 370 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 3: I don't love ice skating or skiing. I like my 371 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 3: fee being in contact with the ground, but I could 372 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 3: do sledding. I'm always for sledding and having a good 373 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 3: time all right. 374 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 2: Time Now for the quarterback Question of the Week. The 375 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 2: Quarterback Question. 376 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 1: Of the Week is brought to you by Northeast Men's 377 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 1: Help the experts in treating men's sexual health with six 378 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: New England offices or at Northeastmen's Health dot Com. This 379 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 1: week's comes from Greg and Gardner. Greg asked, Drake, are 380 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 1: you truly able to enjoy and appreciate the season that 381 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 1: you are having as both an individual and as a 382 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 1: member of the team while you're going through it. 383 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 3: That's a great question. I honestly think it's we're so uh, 384 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 3: you know, next week and and take advantage of the 385 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 3: win or the loss for twenty four hours twenty four 386 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 3: hour rule and try to get going. You know, it's 387 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 3: really hard to reflect on the year you've had. And 388 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 3: I think one of the best things to do is 389 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 3: we'll go back and look at some of the moments 390 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 3: and uh, some of my pictures and camera roll over 391 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 3: mimmy of those moments in the locker room or moments 392 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 3: in the game. And I think it's so next week 393 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 3: and next opponent and win this week that it's it's 394 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 3: hard to reflect on in the time that you're in it. 395 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 3: And it's almost one of those things that's the season, 396 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 3: you appreciate it more, but while you're in it, you 397 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 3: just try to, you know, move on ahead, and and 398 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 3: it goes by so fast. But it's it's so important 399 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 3: that it's it's hard to really reflect and appreciate it. 400 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 3: But I think that's a great question. 401 00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: All Right, Drake, congrats on the performance in New York 402 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 1: on Sunday, and good luck closing out the regular season. 403 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 2: We'll talk to you next week. 404 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 3: There you go.
