And I want to 9 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:20,119 Speaker 4: ask you, it seemed like Josh McDaniels, who a few 10 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:22,280 Speaker 4: weeks ago we were asking questions like too much on 11 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:24,960 Speaker 4: your plate? Whatever, how are you guys getting along? Seemed 12 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 4: like he was dialing up a lot of things that 13 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 4: worked really well yesterday. There was that little series with 14 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 4: the screen, the end around and the fake end around run. 15 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 4: Seemed like you and Josh were very much clicking yesterday. 16 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 1: Is that fair to say? 17 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:41,919 Speaker 2: True? That's what he's done, That's what that's what done 18 00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 2: for a long time. Just glibe it. Uh, when you 19 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 2: keep going and building each and every week, and we 20 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,160 Speaker 2: got guys, I think great skills and a different things. 21 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 2: So I think we're starting to kind of get something on. 22 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 2: So just gonna keep going on the next week. And 23 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 2: we had to count Drake. 24 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 3: I know you were playing yesterday against the team you 25 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 3: grew up rooting for being a Charlotte native. Did you 26 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 3: get a little extra geeked up, a little extra fired 27 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 3: up to play a team that you grew up cheering 28 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 3: four and also hitting the Cam Newton Selly in the 29 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 3: end zone? Was that planned? Improvised? Just kind of like 30 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,319 Speaker 3: a little spur of the moment exciting thing. 31 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:20,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, the other team I grew up watching and spent 32 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 2: so many games in Bank America Stadium back home. Used 33 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 2: to be the kid with the panther, the panther on 34 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 2: paint and the panther face paint shoot growing up. But no, 35 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 2: I think it was. I don't know if I had 36 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,759 Speaker 2: a play, but I had an idea before the game. 37 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 2: I didn't know if I was gonna do it or not, 38 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 2: and just kind of one of those things, ready to 39 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 2: tie and hit the right time or not so the 40 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 2: right time. 41 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 4: You mentioned in terms of that celebration that you're not 42 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 4: the most emotional guy. Cam was a more emotional quarterback, 43 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 4: and sometimes maybe you need to be a little bit 44 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 4: more emotional. 45 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 1: But can it also be a good thing. 46 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 4: It seems like if you're not super emotional, that probably 47 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 4: allows you to be a little more even keeled, not 48 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 4: get too high or too low. Can that be a 49 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 4: benefit to you. 50 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a coming balance between that, you know, trying 51 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,359 Speaker 2: to be eating steel and there's nothing really voluble and 52 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 2: nothing cup And there's also uh to the part of 53 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 2: where teammates want to see you aunt up and feed 54 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 2: off that. So just trying to find that and I 55 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 2: think the guys respond to it well. So just trying 56 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 2: to good balance between that. 57 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,360 Speaker 3: So Ramandre obviously had a tough week Week three against 58 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 3: the Steelers, putting the ball on the carpet two times, 59 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 3: but coach Brabel understands his value to the team and 60 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 3: how important it is to try to get work to 61 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 3: push past those mistakes. How important was it to have 62 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 3: him out there for you and the offense and what 63 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 3: kind of message do you think that sends to your team? 64 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,119 Speaker 2: Oh? Huge, It's huge. It's confidence. It was confidence from 65 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 2: from the close and stuff, and it's confidence from the 66 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 2: guys around us. You know, we didn't blink an eye, 67 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,519 Speaker 2: you know we knew, you know what, Andre his capability 68 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 2: and his effort the whole take care of the football 69 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 2: and he almost got in the end zone. He really 70 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 2: should have. But uh, I thought I was great to 71 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 2: see him bounce back and look forward to him and 72 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 2: need him all season. 73 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,240 Speaker 1: As much as it looked easy on paper. 74 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 4: And we're talking to Drake May on a Patriots Monday 75 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 4: here on WI afternoons. The game got off to a 76 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 4: little bit of a slow start, the defense gave up 77 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 4: the drive. You guys had the three and out and 78 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 4: then you got the big punt return shortly thereafter. How 79 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 4: much did Marcus Jones punt return for a touchdown just 80 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,639 Speaker 4: inject life and everybody in sort of jumpstart would ended 81 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 4: up being a route. 82 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that could be kind of a yeah, 83 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 2: like that could be a jump start, It could be 84 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 2: the kind of igniter I think it really was. You know, 85 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 2: I mean to position miss Booty behind him, and you know, 86 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 2: from there, I think just kind of felt like, Okay, 87 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 2: let's get these let's get this thing going. And that's 88 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 2: what we felt like on the sideline. I think the 89 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 2: office was find a well the next drives and I 90 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 2: really liked the whole day that to the defense and 91 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 2: assost just put some great spots and just kind of 92 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 2: how to finish off the job. 93 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 3: Uh So Steph Diggs said in his postgame presser as 94 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 3: well yesterday, what do you say he's a five out 95 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 3: of ten so far. Yeah, he's a he's only at 96 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 3: a five out of ten and understanding the McDaniel's offense 97 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 3: looks pretty impressive for only being a five out of ten. Uh, 98 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 3: where would you put yourself numerically on a scale of 99 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 3: zero to ten in understanding where everything is offensive? 100 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know about zero out of ten. I 101 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 2: feel good. I feel good each every week. I think 102 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 2: it's so good the terminology and sod in that some 103 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,840 Speaker 2: some plays and getting the different run looks so film 104 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 2: better eage every week. You know, I think Steph really 105 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 2: was hoping, you know, the five out of ten meant 106 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 2: he's got a lot better to go, which I think 107 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 2: was owiding it. But uh really for him, I think 108 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 2: we keep building, to keep building the play ahead of us, 109 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:44,720 Speaker 2: and I think we're going to need best today night. 110 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 4: You have been talking about wanting to get Steph the 111 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 4: ball more, and he had six catches one hundred plus 112 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 4: yards yesterday. There was one catch in perm in particular 113 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 4: that stood out to me. That throw down the right 114 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 4: sideline sort of the back shoulder. He came back for it. 115 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 4: You usually those back shoulders are an indication that a 116 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 4: quarterback wide receiver pretty good rapport kind of on the 117 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 4: same page. 118 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: Is that a safe read from Afar? 119 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 4: And is that exciting to you sort of how that 120 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 4: relationship is growing between you and Steph. 121 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, continuing to grow. 122 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:15,159 Speaker 1: You know. 123 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 2: Most of the stuff has been kind of across the 124 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 2: middle and crossing rouse the steps. So it's good season outside, 125 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 2: you know, uh, you know, hit and I think pos 126 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 2: just feeling I'll feeling in the receiver and I think he, uh, 127 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 2: you know, made a great play and I need to 128 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 2: get him in the end zone. So probably the next 129 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 2: thing he's got to break maybe one more tackle or so. 130 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 2: But now I was so excited to see him do that, 131 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 2: and uh yeah, it was good for him to get 132 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 2: back out there, and you'll have a have a great week. 133 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 3: Great obviously to get a home win for the fans 134 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 3: after three tries on the twenty twenty five season. Uh, now, 135 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 3: you guys are sitting at two and two. But I'm 136 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 3: not sure if you're aware statistically of how good things 137 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 3: are going for you as well. Now you're accomplishing things 138 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 3: early on in the season, Drake, with your passer rating, 139 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 3: rushing touchdowns, passing touchdowns that you're out in rare company 140 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 3: of the Lamar Jackson's the Josh Allens of the world. 141 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 3: And there's actually a completion percentage and touchdown pass stat 142 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 3: that compares you to Tom Brady. How how does it 143 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,159 Speaker 3: feel to be in such vaunted company this early in 144 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 3: your second season. 145 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:18,840 Speaker 2: Oh sure, we got a lot of work to do, 146 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 2: and especially myself. So you know, those things are cool 147 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 2: that they bring out those stuff in stats. But like 148 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 2: I said, I think getting wins is is what those 149 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 2: guys are remembered for. And you know, we got a 150 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 2: uh tough stetic games and certain Sunday night, so we've 151 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 2: got to get back out there and keep it going. 152 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,840 Speaker 4: You told us last week that it's never as good 153 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 4: or as bad on film as you think it is, 154 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 4: so obviously the points the statistics said, it was a 155 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 4: really good game. Now that you've broken down the film, 156 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 4: what's one thing that wasn't as good as you'd hoped 157 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 4: it could be or that you need to work on. 158 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just a little thing, a little details on 159 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:57,919 Speaker 2: plays and you know, to make it better. You know, 160 00:06:58,000 --> 00:06:59,599 Speaker 2: I think I misstray good in this lat A little 161 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 2: bit behind them, I missed Booty in the first possession, 162 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 2: A little bit behind them. So just trying to be 163 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,919 Speaker 2: as I can. I missed the open across you know, 164 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 2: the middle.

And you know, the ball's gonna 191 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 2: find these guys that just keep playing hard. So you know, 192 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 2: proud of that. And that's the stuff from filming that 193 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 2: you really look at back and the teammate coach guy Man, 194 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 2: that's pretty cool seeing. 195 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 4: That Patriots quarterback Drake May here on a Patriots Monday 196 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 4: and w E I afternoons Drake. 197 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 2: Uh. 198 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 4: Week one was a big game for Booty. Then it 199 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 4: when your guy Stevenson, then when Hunter Henry, then it 200 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 4: was Stefan Diggs. How exciting as a quarterback is it 201 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 4: to kind of show everybody says, oh, this team doesn't 202 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 4: have a number one target, but you show up each 203 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 4: week and a different guy has been your number one target. 204 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 4: You have a bunch of guys that can put up 205 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 4: numbers and beat the defense. Yeah. 206 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:51,559 Speaker 2: I keep telling me for that, and I think you're 207 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 2: starting to see it. You know, you got a lot 208 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 2: of your guys that plays, and I agree with not 209 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 2: shooting out what the play is or not who gets it. 210 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 2: It's just really just who happens to get at that 211 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 2: play and who you know, who you know falls apart 212 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,680 Speaker 2: in the progression or the read or the scheme. And 213 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 2: I think coach mc dam's doing a great job of 214 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,439 Speaker 2: kick you guys in that spot and we got and 215 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 2: the crazy part, we've left a lot of players out 216 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 2: there on film that with you know, PARSI, you know, 217 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 2: having bigger games for other guys so well. 218 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 3: I know I've mentioned the names of a lot of 219 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,320 Speaker 3: other quarterbacks during this interview, but obviously in your short 220 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 3: time in the NFL, Drake you've been compared to Josh Allen. 221 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 3: It's a great benchmark as well. Obviously he's having a 222 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 3: phenomenal career MVP caliber season. Again, they're atop the AFC 223 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 3: East four and oh and now you guys get to 224 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 3: travel to Orchard Park to renew rivalries with some very 225 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 3: friendly fans over there for Buffalo. How excited do you 226 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 3: get facing off against somebody like Josh and how much 227 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 3: do you love going into hostile territory like that? 228 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's I love going on the road. 229 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 2: I love playing away games. I've loved since high school 230 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 2: football where you going to Hey riber Ley is not 231 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:03,839 Speaker 2: their place, and and win a game with the student 232 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 2: section sold college and and uh, you know, starting to 233 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 2: love the NFL. It's it's awesome going the road, and 234 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 2: it's a challenge. It's tough, and uh, I think it 235 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 2: feels good when you get one on the road. So 236 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 2: uh yeah, tough challenges, you know, telling us he did 237 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:18,679 Speaker 2: to the a FC with with the Bills and how 238 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 2: they played the past of the years, and yeah this 239 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 2: I think we went there last year and you'll started 240 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,839 Speaker 2: fast and I think we just got to try to 241 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 2: have the same mindset, you know, start fast and keep it, 242 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 2: keep it. I think it's about us, like it, like it, 243 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 2: like I did you know this pass. Think it's about 244 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 2: us and and that about them, And I, like I said, 245 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 2: we've got a tough challenge and looking forward to it. 246 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 4: Josh Allen's a guy that finds the end zone with 247 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 4: his arm and with his legs. 248 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 1: You've been doing that early in the season. 249 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 4: So this may be a little bit of a unique question, 250 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 4: but what feels better throwing. 251 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,079 Speaker 1: A touchdown pass or scoring a touchdown run. 252 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 2: Oh, I think throwing touchdown pass. I think when two 253 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 2: people score it's a lot better. So I always try 254 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 2: to tell guys and if it's I choose, if you're 255 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 2: wide open and I might open and run it, I'm 256 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 2: gonna throw it. So that's what I'm always telling. And 257 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 2: if you do have to run in, I know the 258 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 2: guys aren't too mad about it either. 259 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 4: Before we get to the quarterback question of the week, 260 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 4: I noted yesterday in your press conference after the game, 261 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 4: you referenced the one sack, which was a short sack, 262 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 4: and you joke that you apologize to the the offensive line. 263 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,199 Speaker 4: Did you kind of screw them out of a shutout there? 264 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly that's what I did. And uh, it's it's 265 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 2: it's just it's just a funner. I'm just mad at myself. 266 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 2: But hey, I think those guys know it. It wasn't 267 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 2: on them. So yeah, I apologize, and I try to 268 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 2: do that. I think I'm taking a couple know yard 269 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 2: sacks year, which is a yeah. I even took one 270 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 2: running out of bounds one time. You have just got 271 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 2: to be mindful of ad and know those guys they'll 272 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 2: play it butts off all games, so it means sometimes 273 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 2: then and they do a great job of keeping. 274 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 3: So yeah, you could make it up with a Christmas 275 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 3: gift or maybe like a nice steak dinner sometime. 276 00:11:58,200 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt. 277 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, you gotta start thinking about those Christmas gifts 278 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,679 Speaker 4: you quarterbacks in the NFL, everybody's watching and everybody plays one. 279 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 4: They given out cars and ATV at Yeah, it's probably 280 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 4: you know, I know it's only late September. You probably 281 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 4: you probably got to start that on your to do list. 282 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 4: What you're gonna get your alignement this year? Have you 283 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 4: Have you thought about it at all? 284 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, you got to start on early. And I 285 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 2: think it's one of those things where you can't do 286 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 2: it last minute. You got put some thought into it, 287 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 2: and those guys care about it. 288 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 1: So also helps if you get a sponsor involved. 289 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 4: I think brock Perdy got Toyota to basically give his 290 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 4: offensive line cars, so you get the credit to let 291 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 4: the car dealership give the gift. All right, now, time 292 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 4: for the quarterback question of the week here on WEI Afternoons, 293 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 4: and this comes from Chris in Carlisle. 294 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 1: Uh, have you ever been starstruck? 295 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 4: And I think this is probably based on You know 296 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 4: you've talked about you met Cam Newton and Bill Belichick 297 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 4: and Tom Brady and then even yesterday Jalen Brown's on 298 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,080 Speaker 4: the field, Mark Wahlberg, have you ever been starstruck or 299 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 4: who would you be starstruck by if you met them? 300 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,959 Speaker 2: That's a great question. Yeah, really I found myself being 301 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 2: starstruck kind of in person. I think it's one of 302 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 2: those things, uh, that kind of starstruck kind of gets 303 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 2: surprised by aim. So most of the people that i've 304 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 2: kind of know they're have an idea there. I think 305 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,079 Speaker 2: as a as a young kid, you see a starstruck 306 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 2: when you see when you see players come up to 307 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 2: you and you know, being alas training camps and seeing 308 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 2: Cam Newton and Luke Keikley and those guys. Uh, since 309 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 2: my time as a as an adult, you know, I'll 310 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 2: think maybe the first time meeting probably meeting Tom, when 311 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 2: I met Tom here a little starstruck. I mean, the 312 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 2: grace to ever do it, it's probably probably the It's 313 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 2: probably up there at number one for me.
