00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:28,360
Speaker 1: you know, just try to step every single aspect up,

10
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:30,600
Speaker 1: you know, one more not so you know, maybe that's

11
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: an extra hour of film study, you know, maybe that's

12
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:36,200
Speaker 1: a few extra reps in the weight room. Just whatever

13
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: it takes to be better. And being a part of

14
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,600
Speaker 1: this organization like you've been. What's it mean when you

15
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,239
Speaker 1: realize foot the ball champion involved, it's got to be

16
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:47,279
Speaker 1: very special. I mean it's great, but that was last year.

17
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 1: This is this year. And being a Patriot what's that

Speaker 1: the best we can be? Big video yesterday, there's a

23
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 1: lot of talk about how much of the defense is returning.

24
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: How are those veterans, I guess relying on you guys,

25
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 1: and I guess the team chemistry of all you guys

26
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: being together. Well, everybody relies on everybody, no matter who

27
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: they are. You know, everybody's got to do their job

28
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 1: around here, and that's just what we focus on. Do

29
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 1: you ever think back of your first year here, coming

30
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 1: in as a working free agent where you're washed at

31
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 1: that point, or back at those days. I think about

32
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,759
Speaker 1: it all the time, you know, and it just that's

33
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: just something that just keeps me going, you know, think

34
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 1: about where I was, uh where I am now? So

35
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: I just try to be better every day. You feel

36
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 1: like a veteran now somewhat, But I got a lot

37
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 1: of a lot of growing to do. Feel so you've

38
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: come a long way, I do. Bill was talking a

39
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 1: little bit about how among the thanks, how you know,

40
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: among the coaches, maybe front office to everybody's jobs changes

41
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 1: a little bit from year to year. How do you

42
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 1: feel like yours haw has it changed? And how do

43
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,840

46
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: don't know, You're not sure yet. No, we just got started, Adam.

47
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: How was practiced today overall and individually and as a group.

48
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 1: It seemed like every point God took everybody together and

49
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,920
Speaker 1: so it had a card too fod. I mean I

50
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,519
Speaker 1: did the best I could. I'm not gonna speak for coach,

51
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 1: so Adam, I know you've got a lot of commidents

52
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,359
Speaker 1: of Brian and Jared, But how different is it when

53
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: Tim it's not walking around the pad with kind of

54
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 1: street clowes milling back. I mean, I really don't pay attention,

55
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 1: you know, to what everybody else does. I just try

56
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: to do what I'm supposed to do every day and

57
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: I just focused on my job and try to get better.

58
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 1: Is there anything you're working around specifically this year to

59
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: in perfect game? Well? Nothing really specifically. You can try

60
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 1: to get my strength up if you really want to

61
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: be that specific. Is there step a step forward in

62
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 1: terms of like contensive practice when you go from the

63
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: from the chills and shorts to the full padded practice tomorrow,

64
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: and it's it's always a step up. What kind of

65
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: things can you do to make sure you're ready to

66
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 1: make that jump from non pads of full pads, nothing,

67
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 1: just to be ready to go mentally,
