1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,679
Speaker 1: Tom Mutton Jerry this morning, how are you? I gotta

2
00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:04,840
Speaker 1: come more in? You got a shout out from Scott

3
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:07,720
Speaker 1: Hanson yesterday watching the Red Zone? Uh, he said, I

4
00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:10,480
Speaker 1: know Tom Brady is watching with his mini bye week. Here.

5
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 1: Were you at home watching the Red Zone yesterday? I was.

6
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 1: I saw quite a bit of it. I love that

7
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 1: show Man. That's you know, for like football addicts. I

8
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:20,639
Speaker 1: don't know if you can get any better than that,

9
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,480
Speaker 1: and you can't. It's it's weird because there's no commercial,

10
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:25,239
Speaker 1: so you can never really get a break, and you

11
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 1: if you pause it, it doesn't do any good because

12
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 1: there's no commercial to buzz through. When you get back,

13
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 1: you can't like I just wear a diaper and I

14
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 1: just wet myself. I don't even go to the bathroom.

15
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 1: I know, I know. It's it's pretty amazing, you know,

16
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 1: to wrap all that up, because when we were kids,

17
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 1: you'd just be flipping from whatever channel that was on

18
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 1: between the two games that we're on. You know, when

19
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: it would go to commercial, the ASC game, the NFC game,

20
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 1: and you can just sit there and watch that thing

21
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 1: all day, and you know, the quarterbacks. Before he came on,

22
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: we're talking about the young qbs. They're the real attraction

23
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 1: for me as I'm watching Red Zone, You're going from

24
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield to Sam Donald to Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen,

25
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 1: Josh Darnold, Josh Rosen. Do you feel the same way,

26
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:07,679
Speaker 1: And what's your take on these guys? Tom I was,

27
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: and I've been saying for weeks now that they're more

28
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,759
Speaker 1: ready than ever because they're playing seven on seven when

29
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 1: they're ten years old, and they're flying around to different

30
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:19,680
Speaker 1: clinics and getting coached up by these specialists, and this

31
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: new generation of qbs, it's very exciting because they seem

32
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 1: more ready than QB's were when you were a kid. Yeah,

33
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 1: it's you know, it's um, I mean, a lot of

34
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: those guys are being thrown into the mix, so it's

35
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 1: I mean, there's definitely a lot of young guys playing,

36
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 1: and I mean I think that's always the case. There's

37
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: always young guys playing it. Sometimes it's quarterbacks, sometimes it's

38
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 1: running backs, receivers, just depending on kind of the status

39
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: of where teams are at. But yeah, I mean those

40
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: some of those guys are playing really well, and it's

41
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: just it's pretty it's pretty awesome. When I was I

42
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: was a four string quarterback my rookie year, so I

43
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: was you know, I was eating nachos in this Dans

44
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: four games. I wasn't playing games, so I had a

45
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: chance to sit back and learn, and you know, some

46
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 1: other guys have had those chances. Um, you know, and

47
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: when you're throwing in the mix, it's it's pretty impressive.

48
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: Homes like you We had to sit as a rookie

49
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 1: and learn, and it's apparently it helps because he's been great.

50
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: What would your what'd you take on the guy you're

51
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: facing Sunday night. Well, he's you know, I haven't actually

52
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: studied much on just some highlights, you know, which everyone sees,

53
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 1: which are obviously incredibly impressive. He's very talented. I mean,

54
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: he's got, you know, what seems to be, you know,

55
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,799
Speaker 1: a lot of great tools to work with. So, um,

56
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 1: they got a great team. I mean just they got

57
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: the highest scoring offensive league. They got a lot of

58
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 1: good skill players. Um, movement, they're five and oh so

59
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: there's not much not many chinks in the armor. So

60
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,920
Speaker 1: we're gonna have to play really well and be up

61
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,679
Speaker 1: for the challenge. It's going to be a pretty tough game.

62
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 1: You mentioned you're sitting for your eating, not just in

63
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 1: the stands. Looking back, Was that was that a benefit? Tom?

64
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,240
Speaker 1: Did you you feel like you learned a lot rather

65
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 1: being thrown into it in a situation where you had

66
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 1: to start right away for a team. Yeah, you know,

67
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 1: I think it was a different time. Um, you know,

68
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,359
Speaker 1: I think football was different then, you know, I think now,

69
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: I think in some ways it's pro football is more

70
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 1: of glorified college football. So I think it's some ways

71
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: it's maybe the transition. It's a more similar game than

72
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 1: what it used to be, you know when I first started.

73
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: So it's much I think football now is is, you know,

74
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 1: with removing some of the physical elements of the game.

75
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: It's just it's more of a space game. And you know,

76
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 1: you see a lot of kind of college plays, you know,

77
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: more in the pro game now than than what I

78
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: remember when I started. So you know, that's just kind

79
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 1: of how things have went over the last bunch of years.

80
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: It's true, they're guys who get to the pros without

81
00:03:56,160 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 1: ever having taken a snap under center, which is pretty amazing. Yeah,

82
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 1: I know, it's in the development of players is different

83
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: from high school to college to the pros. Um So, yeah,

84
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: It's just there's a lot of you know, a lot

85
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: of different elements that play a part of kind of

86
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 1: where the pro game is at now. Um. You know,

87
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: obviously a lot of talented players, um, but the game,

88
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 1: the game is different. Hey back to Thursday night, it

89
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,720
Speaker 1: feels like a month ago that you that you played

90
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 1: that you and beat the Colts. But there were a

91
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 1: couple of players that that we discussed a lot, and

92
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 1: we played a lot, including the touchdown. You're seventy your

93
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 1: seventieth first, seventy first different receiver and Josh Gordon's the

94
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: guy you had a lot of time in the pocket.

95
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,359
Speaker 1: I was wondering, what are you thinking. Are you thinking

96
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 1: that's Josh Gordon out there? I could take a chance

97
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 1: because there were two two defenders around him. You made

98
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 1: the throw, he made the play, But are you just

99
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: kind of throwing it up for grabs hoping he'll get

100
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: up there played for it. Yeah. I saw him kind

101
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 1: of break free and he was running. I saw the

102
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 1: guy underneath them, and I you know, he had a

103
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,599
Speaker 1: took a good angle at the pylon and when I

104
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: threw it, you know, I thought he could get his

105
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 1: eyes on the ball before you know, the defender could

106
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 1: just based on the position and that's ended up what happened.

107
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 1: And then Josh went up and went through both those

108
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 1: guys to make the play. But again, I think I

109
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: said after the game, it just speaks to the trust

110
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,040
Speaker 1: I haven't him, you know, in a very short period

111
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: of time to make those plays. And I mean I

112
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: watched him play for a long time and we played

113
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,359
Speaker 1: against them, and just seeing him on the practice field,

114
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 1: you just you know, you you make those type of

115
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 1: throws when you you know, believe that your guy's going

116
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 1: to come down with It was a huge play in

117
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 1: the game and we needed at that time. We kind

118
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,279
Speaker 1: of had sputtered there in the third quarter with the

119
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 1: turnovers and you know, we we needed a big play

120
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 1: and it was it was great to see Josh come

121
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: up with that. Oh you had Jolian Himan back on

122
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,720
Speaker 1: Thursday night and the first drive tom it seemed to

123
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: me that having him back, the offense looked so much different,

124
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:02,919
Speaker 1: and it just it looked easier for you. Is it

125
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,359
Speaker 1: as simple as having him in the middle of the

126
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 1: field makes things easier for this offense? Well, I think

127
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: you when you have you know, great players, and Julian

128
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: is a great player. He's been that way for us

129
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 1: for a long time. He's that's that's how you move

130
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,720
Speaker 1: the ball. You know, you throw the guys who are

131
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 1: going to make, you know, tough catches and make those

132
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 1: plays instinctive plays. And you know, we got a lot

133
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 1: of his own coverage other night, and Jules just knows

134
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,719
Speaker 1: how to work those areas and you know, he could

135
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,160
Speaker 1: turn a four yard catch into a nine yard game

136
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: and you know, those things kind of go maybe a

137
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 1: little bit taken for granted when he's in there, and

138
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 1: he hasn't been in there for a while, and our

139
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 1: offense has changed a little bit because he hasn't. But

140
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:45,919
Speaker 1: it was great to have him back, and we obviously

141
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 1: worked it through training camp and you know, I think

142
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: we're still figuring out what we're good at at this point.

143
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,479
Speaker 1: I mean, we haven't had you know, everyone together for

144
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 1: that long. You know, now that Josh is on the team,

145
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 1: and you know, all the receivers are are really contributing,

146
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,359
Speaker 1: the tight ends are contributing, now, the backs. You know,

147
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 1: Sony missed all the training camp, so it's just kind

148
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 1: of figuring out where we go from here. And that's

149
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: you know, a good opportunity for us. You know, we're

150
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 1: five games into the year and we still got a

151
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: lot of football left. And you know, I think we

152
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 1: all believe our best football is ahead of us. And

153
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: as have you tried to recall all seventy one receivers.

154
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 1: I think this is an amazing record, Tom, because you

155
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 1: beat Vinnie testa Verdi. You passed Vinnie who played for

156
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: how many different teams? Six six, seven different teams You've

157
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 1: been on the same team and you got seventy one

158
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: different receivers. How many of them do you how many

159
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 1: of them do you remember? And how many are like

160
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 1: just distant to you know, blurs. Yeah, well, I'm sure

161
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 1: I remember all of them. To recount them all, that

162
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 1: would be tough. But I remember all the guys I

163
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 1: played with and through touchdown asses too, and we've got

164
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: a lot of guys contribute over the years, you know,

165
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 1: And it's I think these things are all just great

166
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: team awards. I mean, I know a lot gets folcused

167
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 1: on the quarterback, but you know, you're just you're you're

168
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 1: one of many, and when you're the quarterback, you know

169
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: you're the one that gets the ball, and it's just

170
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 1: it's great in my view, to distribute it to all

171
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 1: these different playmakers you know that are just incredible athletes,

172
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 1: and all the way from you know, Mike Rabel who

173
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: caught I don't know, a bunch of touchdown passes for me.

174
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 1: You know, all the receivers I played with, Gronk who's

175
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 1: caught the most. You know, Terry Glenn who caught the first,

176
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: and Josh to catch the last one, and everyone in between.

177
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: It's just I think it's fun for me to share

178
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 1: that with everybody, because that's what it's all about for me.

179
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 1: You know, I love football because I think it's a

180
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: great team sport and everyone plays a hugely important role,

181
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: and unless every one else is doing their job, it's

182
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 1: impossible for me to do mine. And you're able to

183
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:07,439
Speaker 1: celebrate these victories and these accomplishments with a lot of people,

184
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 1: and I think hopefully everyone who participated is you know,

185
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: is as proud of it as I am, because I

186
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,079
Speaker 1: think it's it's just a really cool thing to be

187
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 1: a part of six different number eighty eight. So you're

188
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 1: through two and including some guy named Fourier whatever happened

189
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 1: to him, He's doing pretty good. You're a great player

190
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 1: for us. I think he's doing pretty guys. I see

191
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 1: him from time to time, and I mean I love

192
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 1: playing with Christian. He was a he was a great player.

193
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: I mean he came to us at a great time,

194
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 1: and you know, he was just a great player, a

195
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 1: great kind of multipurpose tight end that you know, blocked

196
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 1: and caught passes and and you know, I love playing

197
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,439
Speaker 1: with Christian. Well, it's a team sport, but the number

198
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: five hundred's a pretty individual number. With a five hundred

199
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 1: touchdown passes, Tom, and you joined an elite group of

200
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: guys when I have a lot of respect for Have

201
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 1: you a lidge yourself to to let that sink in

202
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: since Thursday? That five her number? Um, you know, I

203
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 1: not not really truthfully. I I kind of in the

204
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: middle of it now, So I'm just try approach it.

205
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 1: One of the time. I didn't know that was the case,

206
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 1: even until after, you know, they showed it on the

207
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: big screen and I don't know. I've never really paid

208
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:25,439
Speaker 1: attention though they haven't. I played a win. That's that's

209
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,960
Speaker 1: what my goal has always been. So when we you know,

210
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 1: that's that's where my payoff is. And I've I've felt

211
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,559
Speaker 1: that way for a long time. If I were you,

212
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,319
Speaker 1: I would be pissed at I got an interception when

213
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,320
Speaker 1: Gronk kind of babbled it up in the air and

214
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 1: they first called it a fumble. Be honest, you thought

215
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,839
Speaker 1: it was a fumble, right, I couldn't tell from where

216
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 1: I was at. You've seen it again on video. You

217
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 1: know it was a fumble, right. I don't know that was.

218
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if that was. I don't know if

219
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 1: that would have been a bumble. That was probably that.

220
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think he control it fully, but

221
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 1: I mean that that is what it is. I'll keep

222
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 1: throwing it to the to that guy. Man. I every

223
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 1: time the ball goes to him, usually something good happen.

224
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,679
Speaker 1: So when something bad happens, it's kind of an anomaly

225
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 1: to me. Well, uh, he probably would get he'd probably

226
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: be fine with the fumble, and uh, you know what,

227
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:19,559
Speaker 1: he should have caught it anyway, so he should take

228
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 1: the blame. It doesn't matter. I mean, yeah, it doesn't

229
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,320
Speaker 1: matter at the end. It's it's for all of us,

230
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 1: and I think it's one thing for us to think about,

231
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 1: is you know, those turnovers, whether it's an interception, fumble,

232
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 1: you know, fumbled snap. You know, we're just and I

233
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 1: think there's been something that we've got to correct. And

234
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 1: when you look back at the first five games, we're

235
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 1: just giving away too many scoring opportunities, you know, and

236
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 1: that's limiting our our points. I mean, I thought the

237
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: other night we should have put fifty you know, fifty

238
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 1: two out there at least maybe more. And when we

239
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 1: were playing a team like Kansas City, you know, we

240
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 1: got to take advantage of every scoring opportunity because you

241
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 1: know they are and you know, they've proven over five

242
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 1: weeks that they can distribute the ball and the guys

243
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 1: who they're distributing to are making plays, getting the ball

244
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 1: in the end zone. And you know we we're gonna

245
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,079
Speaker 1: have to match that. So if we get chances like that,

246
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 1: you know we're gonna we're gonna need to make the plays.

247
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 1: I gotta make the throws. Our receivers got to make

248
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 1: the catches, the backs have to make the runs, the

249
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 1: line's got to make the blocks. There's not a lot

250
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: of margin prayer when you're going against a team that's

251
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 1: five and those so I mean, more so than anything

252
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 1: you know about fumble, you know, interception, it's about points

253
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,319
Speaker 1: and we got to do a great job scoring points

254
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 1: this week. Time Now for the quarterback question of the week, Tom,

255
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 1: We spent a lot of time this morning talking about

256
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 1: the Red Sox and their loss on Saturday and the

257
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: pressure of the postseason. You had a lot of success

258
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,680
Speaker 1: early as a playoff quarterback. Do you think the ability

259
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,199
Speaker 1: to deal with the playoffs and the pressure of the

260
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,680
Speaker 1: playoffs is that a tangible Is that an actual thing

261
00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 1: that you have to deal with as a player? I

262
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:04,079
Speaker 1: think so. I mean, I think there's more. It goes

263
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:08,439
Speaker 1: two ways. There's more expectation, especially for the really good players,

264
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 1: because you're expected to perform at the highest level in

265
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 1: the biggest moments. But there's also you know, you should

266
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 1: have probably more focus because you know it's you're at

267
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,679
Speaker 1: the end and you know, when you in my view,

268
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,679
Speaker 1: like when we played in Super Bowls, I mean, I've

269
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,079
Speaker 1: had two weeks to prepare. I've done more film study

270
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 1: for those games that I'll have a chance to do

271
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 1: all year. You know, there's more focus on practice and

272
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:41,720
Speaker 1: attention to detail, and you know, I think that's really

273
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 1: an opportunity to elevate yourself. You know, so if you

274
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 1: take advantage of the opportunity. And I know for baseball

275
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 1: Best to seven you're playing the same team. I mean,

276
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 1: hopefully you know your opponent inside now. And if you

277
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:54,679
Speaker 1: do that, I mean you could You should have a

278
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,320
Speaker 1: lot of confidence going into the game that you know

279
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 1: exactly what's going to happen and you can anticipate. When

280
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: you can anticipate, you can play with confidence. And when

281
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 1: you play with confidence, I mean, that's when you should

282
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 1: be at your best. So I think it's harder earlier

283
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 1: in the year, in my view, than it is after

284
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: you've seen all these things play out, where you can

285
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 1: really use your brain, your mind to really anticipate things. So,

286
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 1: I mean, the best team's rise to the occasion, and

287
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 1: hopefully the Red Sox too. I know everyone is rooting

288
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 1: for him. I certainly am, And uh, you know, I

289
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:28,920
Speaker 1: hope they take care of business. Do you do feel

290
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 1: like you get better when there's more pressure? Uh, you know,

291
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,240
Speaker 1: I don't. I would say, I don't think I get worse,

292
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 1: you know, I think hopefully you maintain the level of

293
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 1: performance that is, you know, very typical. I mean I

294
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 1: think when I perform in the playoffs, it looks like

295
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, you know, And that's that's what I want,

296
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 1: and I try to put a lot of effort into

297
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: it over the course of the week. You know, when

298
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 1: it gets to the playoffs, it's just there is a

299
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 1: different level of focus because it's just a margin the

300
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 1: very small or like said, the urgency is up and

301
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 1: everyone feels it. You feel it. You know every step

302
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 1: that you take over the course of the week in

303
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 1: the football building, and you know, it just elevates more

304
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 1: and more from whatever divisional game, championship game, you know,

305
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,880
