1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,199
Speaker 1: Okay, we're on with coach Golchick. We're gonna start with questions.

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: We'll start with Mike Reees followed by Mike Giardin Ahead, Mike,

3
00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:12,720
Speaker 1: morning Bill, how are you today? Oh good, Mike good. Um.

4
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,080
Speaker 1: Last week we were talking about running back being one

5
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:17,560
Speaker 1: of those positions where you can tell a lot more

6
00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:22,160
Speaker 1: in live competition. Um, you know, with tackling, let's pick

7
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:25,160
Speaker 1: up in the like, Um with j J. Taylor getting

8
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:27,640
Speaker 1: a first look at him in that setting, How did

9
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 1: that look to you? Yeah? I thought JJ, you know,

10
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 1: ran competitively, he's you know, he's a tough kid that's

11
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: got good run skills, um, you know, which we saw

12
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:44,200
Speaker 1: at Arizona and to some extent and training camp as well.

13
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:52,840
Speaker 1: So I thought he thought he ran hard. Next question,

14
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: Mike Giardi, followed by Allen Seb Morning Bill. All right,

15
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 1: but does David Andrews's athleticism it's center allow you to

16
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 1: maybe do some things I don't know, differently or a

17
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 1: little bit more efficiently in the run game. Um. Yeah,

18
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 1: I mean, look, David's a very experienced player, and he's

19
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: really played center his whole life, all the way back

20
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 1: to I think before high school and you know. So

21
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: he's like a it's almost got twenty years of playing center,

22
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,039
Speaker 1: so that's a lot of football at deposition. He's very

23
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 1: good at it. He's very experienced and has good quickness,

24
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: has a lot of m savvy and you know, can

25
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: just read and pick up things that our second nature

26
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 1: to him that you know, a less experienced guy might

27
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: have might have trouble with. So but he has athletic,

28
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 1: he's smart, he's got good quickness, he's got very good technique.

29
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 1: He really understands, you know, where the problems are and

30
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 1: kind of what he needs to do to, you know,

31
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 1: to help handle those problems, whether it's line calls or

32
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 1: um technique and so forth. But he does a great

33
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 1: job for us, and it's I'm good good to have

34
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:10,359
Speaker 1: him back in there, Um Sunday for sure. Thanks Bill,

35
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: You're welcome. Yea especial thanks Stacy. Going to go, hey, uh,

36
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take him back here a little bit. I'm

37
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 1: gonna show my age a little bit. And to serve

38
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 1: an upbeat question, I was watching the replay the game

39
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: last night and Jim Nance after jj Taylor run used

40
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 1: the words of mini factor and the minie got to

41
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 1: me and I thought back to another Patriots at number

42
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 1: forty two, Mac Helen. And I'm curious in your mind,

43
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 1: not production wise, of course, but any similar average between J. J.

44
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: Taylor and mac Helen. Huh. Um, you know I never

45
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: worked with Mac, but UM, I don't know. You know,

46
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 1: it'd be interesting to see. In all honesty, I don't

47
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 1: know that. UM. You know, we know enough about JJ

48
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 1: to to make that comparison. Um. You know, he's played

49
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: in one game, and he's practiced. You know, Mac was

50
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: you know, a returner and a runner and caught the

51
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: ball out of the backfield and you know it was

52
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,640
Speaker 1: quick and hard attackle and you know, super productive and

53
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 1: all that. Um. I mean we'll see how you know,

54
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: whether JJ fits into those categories or not. I mean,

55
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: he certainly might. Um, but you know, until he, you know,

56
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 1: has has some production to go with it. UM. You know,

57
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 1: I think that's and mac Haron's a pretty good football player.

58
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: I think it's I wouldn't want to throw people into

59
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: that category until they've you know, really had an opportunity, uh,

60
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 1: you know, to prove themselves. And there's certainly nothing against JJ.

61
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: He's done all he can do to this point. Um,

62
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: there's not really nothing more that he could have done.

63
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: He's out there every day, works works hard. He you know,

64
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: he's one of the hardest working. Um. You know, Rookie

65
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: is one of the hardest working kids on the team.

66
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: And I think that's shown up in the improvement and

67
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: the performance that he's been able to have through the

68
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 1: course of training camp happen and now to the start

69
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: of the regular season. But it's a long way to go,

70
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 1: I think, Um, you know, I just have to see

71
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 1: how that all, you know, how he develops and whether

72
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: he can continue to improve and you know, gets his

73
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 1: opportunities to play, how how productive he can be with those.

74
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 1: But he's earned what he's gotten to this point. Um,

75
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,720
Speaker 1: so well, we know, we'll see what happens. Thanks for

76
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: only do with one miss gome back a couple of

77
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: quotes that John Hannah said about Matt Erry you'll be

78
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: you'll smile and what he said about him. Okay, all right, thanks,

79
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:38,239
Speaker 1: I appreciate the question. Yeah, thanks for though. Next question,

80
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: Phil Perry, he Bill wanted to ask you about Adrian

81
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,359
Speaker 1: Phillips because it looks like he used him in a

82
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: few different ways on Sunday and I'm just wondering what

83
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,159
Speaker 1: it is about his physical skill set that allows you

84
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 1: to do that and how impressed have you been by

85
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 1: him given it looks like he did miss some time

86
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:03,839
Speaker 1: this summer. Yeah, well, Adrian's a you know, very experienced player.

87
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 1: Um and uh, you know we when we signed them,

88
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,039
Speaker 1: we talked about that and you know, our defense, uh,

89
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,840
Speaker 1: because we have to defend so many different things from

90
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,479
Speaker 1: a week to week basis, teams are using you know,

91
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 1: more and more formations and personnel groupings and um, you know,

92
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 1: motions and just accepted things for the defense. Even though

93
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,280
Speaker 1: a lot of their plays are the same, they they

94
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,039
Speaker 1: look a lot different um. And it might run the

95
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 1: same play four or five times in a game, but

96
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,600
Speaker 1: it looks different every time, or they might switch personnel

97
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 1: groups and things like that. So uh, you know, I

98
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 1: think that's an advantage to have some versatility defensively and

99
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: also you know, defensive players that are instinctive and um,

100
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 1: the can can recognize the play and not get distracted

101
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,279
Speaker 1: by all the other things going around it. Are uh,

102
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: you know guys that can really you know, be productive

103
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 1: and and have you know, have plays that um that

104
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 1: they just anticipate and you know, are there to make

105
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: the playoffs. So you know, Adrians showed the ability to

106
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: do that with the Chargers and he's certainly done some

107
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: of that for us. And you know, I had a

108
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 1: couple couple of really good plays. Um, obviously the interception,

109
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 1: but you know he was in on on some other

110
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,840
Speaker 1: plays on Sunday against Miami. So UM. You know, he's

111
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 1: a smart player. He's tough, he's physical. Um, he runs well,

112
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 1: and and he tackles well. Um and you know, in

113
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: place really with within the defense, plays a smart game.

114
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: So glad we have him. And you know he's worked

115
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 1: in well with other UM linemen, linebackers and specifically defensive backs,

116
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: which where he works the most. But you know, when

117
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: he's around the line of scrimmage, he has to have

118
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: a good feel for what those other guys are doing too.

119
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: So um, he's showing the ability to play, you know,

120
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,479
Speaker 1: near the line and not near the line, so just

121
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,279
Speaker 1: kind of depend on what they're in and what we're

122
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: trying to do. Thanks. Yeah, you're welcome. It's like the

123
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 1: final question of me, Bob, So thanks, Stacy. Can Morning

124
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: Billy Boy just to follow up in fullest question about Adrian,

125
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 1: I'm curious how much. He impressed you in the playoffs

126
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago with his performance against Baltimore

127
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 1: and then even here at Gillette. I think he got

128
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 1: hurt in that playoff game that came back and had

129
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 1: a productive game for the Chargers. Yeah, you know, we've

130
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: seen we've seen Adrian all, you know, all the way,

131
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 1: you know, through his career, we kind of either cross

132
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: paths with him or as defensively looking at at the

133
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 1: Chargers against whoever they were playing that we were playing,

134
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 1: you know, teams like Denver and Oakland and you know

135
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 1: other ASC teams and so forth. You know, you see

136
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 1: those guys, and especially a guy like Adrian, it's kind

137
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: of there every week and you know, shows up on

138
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: a consistent basis and you kind of watch him play

139
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 1: and you know, I know, our players enjoy watching other players,

140
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: especially good players that they can learn from or you know,

141
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: see how they're doing it. And he's, you know, one

142
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: of the guys we've always um you know, kind of

143
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 1: kind of looked at because you know, usually what he

144
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: was seeing if he had a key on something, then

145
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: you know we were trying to figure out what he

146
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 1: was looking for, how he knew it was coming and

147
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 1: you know, see if we could you know, use that

148
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: same um key and anticipation. So um. But yeah, certainly

149
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: playing against him has been was helpful. And but watching

150
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,280
Speaker 1: him play, as you said, in other games and even

151
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 1: in other years, he's had a very consistent level of performance. Um.

152
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 1: You know, he's a tough kid. Plays in a kicking game.

153
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 1: You know, he did a great job for the Chargers

154
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 1: as uh in a kicking game and in a number

155
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,319
Speaker 1: of different roles there. So you know, we just felt

156
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: like with his versatility and and uh you know, ability

157
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,679
Speaker 1: to to help us both on defense and on special teams. Um,

158
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 1: but not do everything all at once, but you know

159
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 1: he could he could plug into where where we needed him. Uh.

160
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 1: That he really had you know a lot of a

161
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 1: lot of value and versatility for our team. So um.

162
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: And i'd say, you know them without Pat uh, this

163
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 1: has really become more you know, a bigger role and

164
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,320
Speaker 1: a bigger opportunity to do those things. And he's taken

165
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 1: advantage of that, he's embraced them and so um. And

166
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 1: we'll see where it goes. But I'm glad we have

167
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 1: him and he's you know, he's the guy that really

168
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 1: gives us a lot of experience, a lot of versatility

169
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,320
Speaker 1: on defense from a player who hasn't been with us.

170
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: But you know, he's been able to provide that, you know,

171
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 1: in the weeks that he's been here, and that's been

172
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 1: a big plus. And just to follow up about player

173
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: who's been here for a couple of years before this season,

174
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 1: but now between year two and three has a more

175
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,320
Speaker 1: pronounced role and that's Ryan is the tight end. I'm

176
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 1: curious what impression impressions did he make this training camp

177
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 1: to signify that he was ready for a significant jump

178
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 1: from year two to year three. Well, I think the

179
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 1: big thing, you know, for Ryan has just he's been

180
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: out there. He's been consistent on the field every day. Um,

181
00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 1: you know, he's dealt with a couple of you know, setbacks,

182
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 1: not the degree that Rivers has, but uh, you know

183
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: where he's missed some time or you know, he's just

184
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 1: kind of, you know, fallen behind a little bit. And

185
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 1: that's tough as a young player when you when you

186
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: missed time and and the other guys who have more

187
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 1: experience already just you know, move a little further ahead. So, um,

188
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 1: but this year it's kind of been the you know

189
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,719
Speaker 1: the opposite of that. And um, you know, with U

190
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: Matt not being here, that's opened up some opportunities. Ryan's

191
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 1: gotten a lot of snaps. He got a lot of

192
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,839
Speaker 1: snaps um in the game Sunday, But he's gotten a

193
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 1: lot more snaps, and he's gotten more of an opportunity

194
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,319
Speaker 1: to work on his craft and improve and and he's

195
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 1: been able to stay out there and um, you know,

196
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,679
Speaker 1: get better in practice. And then that's that showed up

197
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: in the games and the opportunity to uh you know,

198
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,839
Speaker 1: work with um you know, Cam and a passing game

199
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,320
Speaker 1: and you know, make some route adjustments or or make

200
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 1: some you know, good decisions to help the rest of

201
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: the route based on you know, know more what to

202
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 1: do and have more experience doing it. Uh. You know,

203
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 1: it's led to all hire more consistent level of performance

204
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 1: on his end. So UM, you know Ryan has always

205
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:05,719
Speaker 1: worked hard. I mean he doesn't say much. He's a

206
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 1: quiet kid, but he always comes to work, you know,

207
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: ready to work, UM, with a good attitude and good

208
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 1: level of toughness and competitiveness. And UM you know, fortunately

209
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: he's been able to stay healthy this year and and

210
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: by being on the field, you know, he's he's gotten

211
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 1: better and so hopefully that'll, you know, he'll be able

212
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: to continue to do that, and he certainly helped us

213
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:31,559
Speaker 1: out against the Dolphins. Thank you, Yeah, you got a bob.

214
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 1: Thanks everyone, great, Thank you,
