1
00:00:01,960 --> 00:00:05,200
Speaker 1: Anything I wear here years you got for free. We're

2
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 1: still friends. So I'm friends with everybody I've ever played with. Uh,

3
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,959
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a game, you know. I think I

4
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 1: remember first getting in the league. The hardest matchups you

5
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 1: talked about was playing against Tom and playing against Peyton

6
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:28,640
Speaker 1: and then it was Aaron Rodgers so many of us. Yeah,

7
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 1: so that's that's what we got this week. We got. Um,

8
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:33,360
Speaker 1: we're going against a guy that knows what you're in.

9
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:37,240
Speaker 1: He knows what you're trying to do. He's reading every

10
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 1: man on the field. He's seen it all. And I

11
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,920
Speaker 1: would say he's seen this more than anything, um because

12
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 1: of his years uh in the system and going against

13
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 1: the defense and training camp and ota. So um, it's

14
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: gonna be a guy that he's gonna know a lot

15
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: of what we do. Um. So what we do, we

16
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 1: got to do a good job of. We have to

17
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 1: we have to play our best football, you know, I

18
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,280
Speaker 1: think that is that's what happens when you play against

19
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 1: the great quarterbacks, the great teams. And I would say

20
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:05,960
Speaker 1: this team, you know, as much as the talk will

21
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 1: be about Tom and Grown coming back, um, they're really

22
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 1: good at a lot of positions. You know they have

23
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 1: top five guys, Um, not at like a few positions,

24
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: at a lot of positions. Um, there's a lot of

25
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 1: gems and head coaches that would want you know, guys

26
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: they have in their room at that position. So I

27
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 1: would say overall, for us as a team, UM, we

28
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 1: just got to play our best ball collectively, you know,

29
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 1: complementary football, all the things that we talked about each

30
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: week that I would say we haven't done a good

31
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 1: job of so far. We need to do that Sunday night,

32
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,319
Speaker 1: um to be able to have a chance to win

33
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: the games. Because everybody seems to be saying, I mean,

34
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 1: you're probably gonna see grow more than if you're gonna

35
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 1: see Tom. If you're gonna, I mean, not to me,

36
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: I mean he's not lost, Mike Evans, isn't laws Godwin,

37
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown Bread, oj how like for Nett you know,

38
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 1: Joe to meet or not lost. But I mean to

39
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 1: the media, yeah, I mean, all you guys gonna right

40
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: about is Tom all week? So I mean, but I

41
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,639
Speaker 1: think for us, there's there's a host of really good

42
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: players over there. Um. So now I don't think I

43
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: don't think you know, anyone's lost for us was the

44
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,079
Speaker 1: practice against grunt and how do you think the team

45
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: is in the game reality. Yeah, I mean you're talking

46
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: about one of the better tight ends to ever play

47
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: the game physical U and the run game in the past.

48
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 1: Game knows where to be, knows how to get open

49
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:36,679
Speaker 1: from a crafty standpoint, from a physical uh standpoint as well,

50
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 1: can run a bunch of different routes, can play extended

51
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 1: outside as a kind of an ex receiver type, can

52
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: be in line. Um, you know, just the versatility at

53
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 1: the tight end position. I think he's one of the

54
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 1: guys in our era that you know when he played

55
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: tight end, You're like, we're comfortable with him on the

56
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: field as much as possible because he can do everything.

57
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 1: So um, we got to see that firsthand in practice

58
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: every day. Um. Incredible challenge as soon as we get

59
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 1: inside the twenty yard line no matter where he lines up. Um,

60
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,360
Speaker 1: I think you've seen out with the amount of touchdowns

61
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,640
Speaker 1: he's caught in his career. Um of how tough he

62
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 1: isn't a readier to catch radius, great hand so um,

63
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 1: same problems he gave us in practice, he'll give us

64
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 1: Sunday night. So we gotta have an awareness where he's

65
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 1: at no, we'll know what he can do and how

66
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 1: he can hurt us. Um all throughout the game. How

67
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: much guys are telling you guys that you have that experience?

68
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,920
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers as well. I would say a lot of

69
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: guys probably don't. Now, I mean, we just have a

70
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 1: lot of younger guys. Um, But you know, I think

71
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: that's what we're building towards. You know, we're building towards that.

72
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: You know, this is one of those weeks where we

73
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: can't have a bunch of my bads. We like, we

74
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 1: gotta be on it. I think overall, just every day

75
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 1: in training camp, preparing against our offense gives us. You know,

76
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 1: there's some similarities there. There are some things that you know,

77
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: Tom doesn't and that offense was similar to what we

78
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: did in this offense. So, um, there's some similarities there.

79
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: But you know, I would say overall, you know, Time

80
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: has been running this kind of offense for twenty two years.

81
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 1: Like there's there's no former player that you know you

82
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: asked him like, yeah, how has it helped you know

83
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,600
Speaker 1: you played with Like if that answer was out there

84
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 1: somewhere in twenty two years, there would have been a

85
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,719
Speaker 1: former player that gave his new team the answers and

86
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,599
Speaker 1: you know we wouldn't see you know, seven super Bowl

87
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: championships and all of that. So, UM, it's gonna really

88
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: come down to compete in each play, UM winning matchups

89
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 1: like that, Like those simple things to say are hard

90
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 1: to do against this team, and UM the teams that

91
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 1: have had success against them. You see like they're able

92
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 1: to do that, UM consistently throughout the game. But it's

93
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 1: a reason why they want the super Bowl last year

94
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: or off to a great start this year, because they're

95
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 1: a really good football team. Make some mistakes last week. Personality,

96
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 1: you say that's uncharacteristic for the urgency to detail to

97
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: make sure that those things don't become characteristic. Yeah, I

98
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 1: mean a lot of those things come down to everybody.

99
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 1: It's not just one player or two player or players.

100
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: It's players, coaches, it's all of us being on the

101
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,599
Speaker 1: same page. And UM always try to think of things

102
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 1: like there's no such thing as like uncharacterists of the Patriot,

103
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 1: Like this is a new team, like what guys and

104
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 1: teams have done in the past, Um, it really makes

105
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 1: no difference to this team because those guys that we're

106
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 1: doing those things, they're not here playing right now. So um,

107
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: it's who we are right now. It's it's what we

108
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 1: put out there. So um, we better have a sense

109
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 1: of urgency and to fix those things, especially the things

110
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: that the offense or the other team, they're like they're

111
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 1: not doing anything. We're already killing ourselves before the play.

112
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,480
Speaker 1: So um, those are the things that we just can't

113
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: have Sunday night. And um it's a great time to

114
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: get those things going against a team like this because

115
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 1: it'll give us confidence going forward and it'll show that

116
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 1: we can do it. But um, we're about to do

117
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,159
Speaker 1: it Sunday night because we have to. Like this, they'll

118
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,840
Speaker 1: be ready to go. Um, coming off a tough game

119
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 1: you know out in LA, they'll be ready to try

120
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:19,840
Speaker 1: to get away. Ask about him again, he played through

121
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 1: a lot physically, especially you know alat a couple of years.

122
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: He says, now he feels great. It looks like he's

123
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 1: do you see him kind of returning to you know,

124
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:36,159
Speaker 1: his must aim or at least as good as he's. Yeah,

125
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,039
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's hot down there all year round,

126
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: so joints feel good and everything. But um, no, I

127
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: mean I think you know, obviously took a year off

128
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 1: from football, it comes back and last year, by the

129
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 1: end of the year, UM, it was growing. You know.

130
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: You saw that in the Super Bowl. You've seen that

131
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 1: throughout the first couple of games. And I think you

132
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: can even tell by the snap counts of how often

133
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: he's out there how much he's doing in our offense. UM.

134
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's a player that you know for

135
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,480
Speaker 1: some of these young guys that you've watched in college

136
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 1: or you heard about, And it's the guy that I've

137
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: seen come in UM as rookies together and be productive.

138
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 1: He's still as productive he's ever been in the league.

139
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 1: So UM, he's definitely one of the guys you come

140
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 1: into the game like, we gotta have him awareness, we

141
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: gotta stop, and we gotta be there. Um, we gotta

142
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 1: know how to defense is called UM to try to

143
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 1: be around him and slow him down. Yeah, and so

144
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 1: many some guys that described you know, playing the Rady

145
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: Super Bowl Champion's kind of like a benchmark game or

146
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 1: measuring stick game. You know, whether it's because Tom's a

147
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 1: great quarterback or they're a great team. You got to

148
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: want him too. What do you see as just the

149
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 1: stakes of Sunday. Um, we gotta try to go get

150
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: a win. I don't like we go out there and win.

151
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say like, oh, man, see you see you're

152
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 1: in the super Bowl. Like I don't. I don't think

153
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 1: that's the case. I think it's you're going against a

154
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: good football team. It's an early part of the season.

155
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 1: We get to see a little bit about where we're got, um,

156
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 1: how we're come out and compete, how we're execute a

157
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 1: game playing against a good team. But I think we've

158
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 1: still had to show those things through the first three

159
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 1: weeks too, you know. But um, it's just a it's

160
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 1: a level of excitement of competitive when you played a

161
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: team that won the Super Bowl last year. Um, you know,

162
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 1: it is a level of like, let you know, let's go,

163
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: let's have fun out here. This is one of the

164
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: best teams in football right now. And it's the same

165
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 1: thing last year we played against Kansas City, this year

166
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: against Tampa. So, um, you know, I think they probably

167
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: have that mindset of every team they played this year

168
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 1: is gonna come out and give them their best shot.

169
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 1: So um, you know, we've obviously we've been in that

170
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,679
Speaker 1: position before, and you know, I think for us, it's

171
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: just a chance to come out and compete. But I

172
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 1: don't think it's like a tell all of the season

173
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 1: on how we play a week four, Um, good or bad.

174
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 1: I don't think that that dictates the rest of the season.

175
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 1: It's a week by week coming out doing what you

176
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 1: need to do. There's a lot of noise from people

177
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:56,400
Speaker 1: around time out it. Guerro spoke out about family redemption

178
00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: that he wasn't wanted here. Do you expect an incredibly

179
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: emotional Tom Brady who wants to again prove to everybody

180
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 1: in this building. I have no idea. Um, yes, we'll see.

181
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 1: Like I couldn't answer that, Like, I don't know. Um,

182
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 1: I haven't spoken to Tom's dad or Alex or Tom

183
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: about any of that, So I have no idea. You can't.

184
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,599
Speaker 1: You can ask her. She's a pretty honest woman, so

185
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 1: she might shoot you straight. Some of you have spoken

186
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: to her before. She'll tell you I wasn't that good

187
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 1: in high school. She'll shoot you straight. He's gonna blow

188
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 1: is losing James just from an on fielding on field

189
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:50,319
Speaker 1: perspective huge. I mean, James is the quiet leader to

190
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: the guy that you know, Josh mcdani used to always say,

191
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: he's the guy that you know, when I tell him

192
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:57,719
Speaker 1: to do something, he's always gonna do it right. So

193
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,559
Speaker 1: I can always point to him this, Can we do

194
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:02,599
Speaker 1: it like James is doing it? Can we have a

195
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,599
Speaker 1: bunch of guys do like James White does? So? But

196
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: I think the key thing with guys like that, like

197
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: they're always around the lessons that he's embarked and told

198
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 1: to Damien to JJ, Like that's what you talk about,

199
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: like legacy and different things like that. I think you'll

200
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 1: see pieces of James White and who he is and

201
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: what he's done for the organization. You'll see that all

202
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,559
Speaker 1: all year. You'll see it this week, you'll see it

203
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 1: next week because of who he is carries throughout the

204
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:32,679
Speaker 1: whole locker room, and obviously, you know, not having a

205
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 1: guy like that out there on the field, it hurts

206
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 1: as a team. But I always say when a guy

207
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 1: gets hurt, you feel for the guy because of how

208
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 1: much work goes in to being prepared, being ready to go,

209
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 1: the expectations of a season. He had gotten off to

210
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 1: a great start, I mean, helps us out tremendously on offense,

211
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: So you just hate to see, you know, the long

212
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 1: roll the recovery that you know comes with being injured.

213
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,679
Speaker 1: But he's one of the toughest people I've ever been around,

214
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,439
Speaker 1: so I know he'll balance back and he'll be good,

215
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 1: and he'll be here or supporting the team anyway he can.

216
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,599
Speaker 1: So um, he's a definition of a leader. And you know,

217
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,560
Speaker 1: unfortunate blow for him, but you know, I know he'll

218
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 1: be okay. I think I went there in the past.

219
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 1: I think I gotta go, David, Thank you. Everything loves

220
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: time
