1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,000
Speaker 1: Hey Tom Brady, good morning. What's up? Gee? Man, how

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,720
Speaker 1: are you doing. I'm doing great? How are you? I'm good?

3
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 1: I'm good. Nice, nice and warm down there yesterday, man,

4
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:14,120
Speaker 1: I was I was as hot a game as I

5
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:17,200
Speaker 1: can ever remember that. I think it was like one

6
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: hundred and three index or something like that. So that

7
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:23,079
Speaker 1: was pretty intense. But our team fought through it. Our

8
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:27,479
Speaker 1: defense played incredible and uh, you know, it's good to

9
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 1: go down there and win. And we said after the game,

10
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 1: division opponents on the road, are you know, our big

11
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,880
Speaker 1: games to win? And uh, that's been a tough place

12
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:41,200
Speaker 1: for us historically to win. So to win the way

13
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,919
Speaker 1: we did was pretty cool, very special day. Were there

14
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,479
Speaker 1: any actual Dolphins fans there? I mean I saw a

15
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,840
Speaker 1: lot of Patriots fans. Were there any Dolphins fans there?

16
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 1: It was mostly a Patriot crowd, so it was it

17
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,959
Speaker 1: was pretty sweet. Yeah, they they they didn't have as

18
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 1: many as they typically have, but you know, it was

19
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 1: great to have the support down there. Um, this defense.

20
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: You brought up the defense. They have not allowed a

21
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 1: touchdown since the AFC title game. What do you think

22
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 1: makes them so good this year? Though? Yeah, it's pretty amazing.

23
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 1: What they've done, you know, and I've gone against those

24
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 1: guys every day in practice, all training camps, so you know,

25
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 1: it's very challenging because they have well, they have great

26
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:30,119
Speaker 1: players at all levels of the defense and they can rush.

27
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 1: They've got great linebackers as you saw yesterday, and you

28
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 1: know our secondary is talented. They've been experienced, and you know,

29
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 1: all those coaches getting ready to play and there's a

30
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: lot of versatility. So I just think the thing is,

31
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: is any defense that we play, I know they're good

32
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: when you got to earn every single yard. There's no

33
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: free yards out there. You know, there's very rarely guys

34
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: running open with much space, and they're just doing it

35
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: before basically be perfect, which is you know, a very

36
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: hard thing to be on a consistent basis. You know,

37
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: twenty years into this thing and they still can't stop

38
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: the QB sneak things too. So I mean I'm trying to,

39
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 1: you know, find the path the least resistance. So um,

40
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 1: you know, we we we we got it down there.

41
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 1: We got a lot of options down there, so you know,

42
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: we're gonna try to try to do what they're not defending.

43
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: And it was good to get one in so that's

44
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 1: always a highlight for me. I usually if I had

45
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: to go very far, I gotta fall forward about six inches.

46
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: So if I can't do that, then we got a problem.

47
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 1: I don't know. We get nervous though, as fans, we

48
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 1: get nervous. We see it. We get actually get nervous

49
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 1: when when we see you out there late, late in

50
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 1: a game like that. I mean, does it ever I

51
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: know you're a competitor and you want to be out

52
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 1: there all the time, but if you're I mean, do

53
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 1: you ever think about being up thirty and and and

54
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: maybe uh, maybe sitting it out a little bit now?

55
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 1: I mean, we talked about sixty minutes of football because

56
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 1: you know the history down there, and um, you know

57
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,799
Speaker 1: last year, like we said, it took all sixty minutes

58
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: and we enclose it out. And I think we talked

59
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 1: all week about being a sixty minute game. So that

60
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: was just a good way to finish. We scored on offense,

61
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 1: got an interception on defense, and you know all this

62
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: earlier in the year. I mean, it's we're trying to improve.

63
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 1: We're trying to you know, I wouldn't say we're in

64
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,519
Speaker 1: mid season form. We're we still had a lot of

65
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 1: work to improve. So the more reps we get, you know,

66
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 1: the better it is for all of us. And you know,

67
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: we've got we got a lot of football to go.

68
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: So this is, uh, this is the early stages of

69
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 1: the season and we're out there to play football. That's

70
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 1: what my job is and I'm gonna go out there

71
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 1: and try to do it. What did you see out

72
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 1: of a b yesterday? Tom? I mean, he was he.

73
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 1: I thought he did a great job. You know, it's

74
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: to come in on a short week and then to

75
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: to um, you know, established a role for himself. I mean,

76
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: it's it's easy to see why he's been in all

77
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: pro M. You know, just having one game under you know,

78
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 1: our belt together. Um, there's a lot of things I learned.

79
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: And you know, he made a great catch on a touchdown.

80
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 1: He got us going early in the game, and you know,

81
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,039
Speaker 1: he did a great job. So I thought all the

82
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 1: receivers played really well. Jewels. The nice part was we

83
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 1: spread it around to a lot of different guys and

84
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 1: we saw a lot of you know, varieties of different

85
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 1: coverages and looks, and I think that's the way it's

86
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: going to go all season. So whose ever numbers call,

87
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: it's going to have to make the play. And you

88
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 1: know A b made a bunch of them early, and

89
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: then you know Sony had a bunch of carries. Um,

90
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 1: James got a few plays, Jewels played great like always,

91
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 1: Filmmate Gray had a huge third down play, Josh made

92
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: some plays. So, um, you know, good offense is just

93
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,239
Speaker 1: about spreading the ball around and going to keep trying

94
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 1: to figure out how to move it down to score

95
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: some point. When Boomer was on a little while ago,

96
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 1: I said to him that I felt like watching that

97
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: you looked frustrated of a few times sitting on the

98
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: bench where there were there times yesterday where you were frustrated,

99
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: whether it was with yourself or with the offense. No,

100
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: not at all. I was just hot and I was

101
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: just trying to not burn any energy whatsoever. And we're

102
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 1: sitting right in the sun. So it was just a

103
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: I think I was just tired. It was just it

104
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,720
Speaker 1: was just a very exhaustive day. I know, you really

105
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 1: get I think there was a piece in the Athletic

106
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 1: that Nick was telling me about earlier that you get

107
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: concerned about the swamp ass when it comes to your center.

108
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,600
Speaker 1: Was I mean, was everything okay, yesterday with regard to that,

109
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,839
Speaker 1: but we're a pretty good shape. We're in a pretty

110
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:51,359
Speaker 1: good shape. It's it's a very unique article that I

111
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 1: was asked about. So it was it's actually, yeah, not

112
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 1: always to like the best thing to think about or

113
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: to have fun with, but um, I mean, yeah, we

114
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: go to we go to to pretty good lengths to

115
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,679
Speaker 1: keep you know, the centers from just you know, sweating

116
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,279
Speaker 1: all over the ball and the hands and their hands,

117
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: and so I mean you do, yes, we can do yesterday.

118
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 1: It's pretty tough. I mean from an innovation point of view,

119
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: I think you suggested the towel uh placed down in

120
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:27,600
Speaker 1: that area As far as a solution. Yeah, it's kind

121
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,720
Speaker 1: of like a wrist band for your you know, a

122
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:34,280
Speaker 1: wrist band for your for your butt. You know. It's

123
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: the sweat and ye and then we swap it out

124
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 1: and put some baby powder down there to try to

125
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 1: you know, dry out some of the sweats. So it

126
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 1: actually works really well. And I'm surprised more people don't

127
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: do it because so many quarterbacks to me, you know,

128
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: what do you do? It's so hard, you know, And

129
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 1: I dealt with the lat in college, and uh, you know,

130
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 1: all my centers sweated. Oh it's terrible and uh yeah,

131
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 1: but the sweat would just splash in your face, you

132
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,039
Speaker 1: know when you think when you take the hand out.

133
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 1: I know, so you're surprised more people don't do it

134
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 1: on but I think every man in New England now

135
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 1: is going to start doing this just as a trend,

136
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: even if they're not a professional athlete. Just try it

137
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 1: out the weekend, to just try it out. It might work.

138
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 1: It's gross. It's like that scene from Along Came Paully

139
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 1: when Ben Stiller bangs into the guy that's sweating you're

140
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: playing basketball. Yeah, I know, that's exactly what it's like.

141
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 1: And we're out there. I mean everyone yesterday was just

142
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 1: completely sweated through everything they had, so it was that's

143
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 1: just one of these you can't avoid that. That's hot

144
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: for the people in the stands. And we got a

145
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 1: lot of football pat long, so it's it's those are

146
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 1: tough conditions and honestly, over the years we haven't played

147
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 1: very well down there. I don't know what our record is,

148
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 1: but I think there's probably more losses than wins. But

149
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 1: they've got a great home field advantage playing in that heat.

150
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 1: Is because they're playing it every day, and you know,

151
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 1: for us to go down there and win like that was,

152
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 1: you know, we haven't We've only done that one other time,

153
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: I think in two thousand and seven, but we got

154
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: shut out down there and I think two thousand and six,

155
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 1: and uh, it's just a it's just a tough place

156
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: to play. Do you ever feel like you guys are

157
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: running up the score or does that not into your

158
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 1: mind at all? Now? Not at all? I mean that's

159
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: not no. I mean we're trying to you know, we're

160
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,559
Speaker 1: trying to improve. And you know, I wouldn't say everything

161
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 1: was perfect yesterday. We could be certainly a lot better

162
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 1: in a lot of areas on offense. Um our defense

163
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 1: again is playing great. They're giving us a lot of opportunity.

164
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: I mean, they have foreign receptions yesterday, that's incredible. And

165
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:38,199
Speaker 1: you know we got great fuel position. You know, we're

166
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 1: still some more opportunity in the red area we didn't

167
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 1: take advantage of. So, like I said, we're gonna our jobs,

168
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 1: go out there and play football and score points. It's

169
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,559
Speaker 1: not to you know, do anything less than move the

170
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: ball down the field. And you know, they don't put

171
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: us out there to run three plays and punt. We're

172
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,199
Speaker 1: supposed to go down there and make make things happen.

173
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 1: So again, it feels good to finish the game the

174
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: way we did, just because you know, you want to

175
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: see how you are at the end. And there's going

176
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:04,680
Speaker 1: to be plenty of critical times at the end of

177
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,319
Speaker 1: these games coming up where we're going to need to

178
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 1: be at our best at the end, and you know,

179
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,719
Speaker 1: that's just good conditioning and good training for us. So

180
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,199
Speaker 1: that's that's what our job is. Tom. The defense has

181
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 1: been playing outrageously well, only six points over the last

182
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 1: three games you guys have played, and Jamie Collins has

183
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 1: been voted the Need Him Bank Player of the Game.

184
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 1: What's it been like having Jamie back for a second

185
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 1: tour of duty with the Patriots, like the way Chung

186
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 1: came back and seemed to discover a whole new kind

187
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 1: of game. Yeah, it's been great, and he's been you know,

188
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,560
Speaker 1: he's such a versatile player, you know, covering backs, covering

189
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 1: tight ends, rushing the quarterback, intercepting past his plans own defense.

190
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 1: I mean, he's just he's a great player experience, he's

191
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 1: a great athlete, and you know, he just keeps making

192
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: plays out there. So you know, between him and Dante

193
00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 1: and and kind of the NOI Juan Ventley. Um, I mean,

194
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 1: there's just we have good linebackers and they just make

195
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: it hard. Anytime you have good players at that level

196
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,719
Speaker 1: of defense, you know, it's just extremely hard to move

197
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: the ball down the field. It just you know, they

198
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 1: cover so much ground and these range's long and uh,

199
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: you know, it's a it's a real position of strength

200
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: for us. So I'm happy to see Jamie back. I mean,

201
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 1: I gotta you know, I've always loved my time with Jamie.

202
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 1: I got a great relationship with him, and it's great

203
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:32,079
Speaker 1: to see him, you know, enjoying it so much and

204
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,559
Speaker 1: you know, loving being out there and just making play

205
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 1: after play. When a guy like Stephen Guskowski is struggling

206
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 1: like he is, is there anything you can say to

207
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,599
Speaker 1: him as a you know, as a leader, as a

208
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 1: as a veteran, or is it that's something that he

209
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 1: kind of has to work out on his own? Now

210
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 1: you know these are He's fine. You know, he's gonna

211
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,439
Speaker 1: you know, every person you know misses a throw or

212
00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 1: missing the attack or missing a kick. So he's very

213
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: mentally tough. And you know, I kicked the game winner

214
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 1: in the super role. He's got a lot of confidence

215
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 1: in himself and you know he's he's just I've been

216
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,599
Speaker 1: around it for a long time. So um, you know,

217
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 1: he'll just keep trying hard like he always does. And

218
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 1: he had a great game against Pittsburgh. And we all

219
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 1: want every game to be perfect, but you know this

220
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: is a game of skill, and you know it's hard

221
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,680
Speaker 1: to do and and you know every day is not

222
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: going to be your best day. So that's just a

223
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 1: way football is quarterback Question of the week. And it

224
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 1: looks like Sam Donald will likely miss the game on Sunday.

225
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 1: When you guys play the Jets with Mono? Have you

226
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:42,559
Speaker 1: ever been close to missing a game Tom with an illness? Uh?

227
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 1: Never with Never with an illness. I've been close plenty

228
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: of other times with you know, a myriad of different issues.

229
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:54,680
Speaker 1: But I missed those games in twenty sixteen. I missed

230
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:58,599
Speaker 1: the games in two thousand and eight. Um, but I

231
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 1: think that's pretty much it. Never never, you know, just

232
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 1: the flu or anything like that. Have you had mono

233
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 1: or I mean, should we be worried? Have you already

234
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,199
Speaker 1: had it? I don't. I don't think you can get

235
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 1: it again. I think it's very very rare. It's one

236
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 1: and done. Yes, really, I think it's pretty rare in

237
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 1: and of itself. So um yeah, I've never had it.

238
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 1: I hear it's pretty actually pretty awful. How lethargic you

239
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: are and so forth. So hopefully he gets back to

240
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 1: help pretty soon. Um. Time for the Foxborough fanboy question

241
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 1: of the week from Nick Nick What you got? Good morning, Tom?

242
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 1: How are we doing? What's up? Nick? Man? Were you excited? Yester?

243
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 1: Kidding me? Man? Seven? The score is seventy six to

244
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 1: six Patriots on the season, and I think you guys

245
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,559
Speaker 1: are trending upwards. I got, I got good feelings for you,

246
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 1: my man. Um good, I will keep it going. Yeah yeah. Um.

247
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 1: So my question for you this week um pertains to

248
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 1: social media. Comedian Craig Ferguson said, I think these are

249
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 1: great rules. He said. My rules for social media are this?

250
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 1: Does this need to be said right now? Does it

251
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 1: need to be said by me? And I know you're

252
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,080
Speaker 1: big on social media now you're on ig you joined

253
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 1: Twitter recently. What are the kind of rules that you keep?

254
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 1: Do you do you check social media when you're practicing?

255
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 1: You know, how often do you use it because you

256
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 1: know everyone else is addicted to it. I'm just curious

257
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 1: kind of what kind of rules you keep for social media,

258
00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 1: because you're obviously a very active guy. I don't know

259
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 1: if it's rules, but it's just I think there's a

260
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 1: specific point of view, and you know, I think I

261
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: try to make mine a reflection of who I am

262
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: and what I care about. So I feel like I

263
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: have a you know, as a i'll say, the public figure.

264
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,920
Speaker 1: You know, there is a responsibility to you know, try

265
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 1: to do the right thing. And I you know, it's

266
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 1: life is challenging. I mean, I don't think anybody's perfect,

267
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 1: and I think it's a little unfortunate in the world today.

268
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 1: You know, people the expectations are perfection for people, and

269
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 1: then when we're less than that, you know, there's so

270
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 1: much you know, blame and shame. And I think that's

271
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 1: a hard thing about our culture today is that you know,

272
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:10,439
Speaker 1: we're almost asking people to be inhuman um, you know,

273
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 1: and you can't have you know, there's there's nothing you

274
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 1: can do without you know, the utmost scrutiny. And then

275
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 1: you know everyone wants to just see everyone, you know,

276
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 1: raped over the coals and it's I think that part

277
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 1: is really challenging as a parent for your kids, you know,

278
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 1: because you know, when you're parenting your kids, you're just

279
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 1: trying to you know, you're trying to teach them, but

280
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 1: you realize that people learn from mistakes, and you know

281
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 1: it just as a society today, I don't think we're

282
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 1: I think we're just you know, it's a very challenging time.

283
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 1: So you know, from my standpoint on social media, it's

284
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 1: just about trying to pass on or convey messages that

285
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: I feel are, you know, either fun or um, you know,

286
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 1: something inspiring. I'm a very positive person and I try

287
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 1: to keep my my social media that way because that's

288
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 1: that's my point of view, and um you know, that's

289
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: that's how I choose to, you know, go through life.

290
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: I'm going to ask this time, and I know I'm

291
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: going to get the patriot answer, but I'm just going

292
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 1: to ask you to deep, reach deep inside yourself and

293
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 1: just and just just give me an answer on this.

294
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:20,520
Speaker 1: Do you do you care at all about a perfect season?

295
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 1: Is that ever on your mind at all? No? And

296
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 1: you know I'll tell you why, because that's I think

297
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: if you look at our team over a long time,

298
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 1: you know, I think we you know, you to think

299
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 1: about something that's going to happen two weeks from now

300
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 1: or three weeks from now or five weeks from now

301
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 1: is irrelevant. You'll have plenty of time to think about

302
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 1: those when that's a real reality. I mean, that's so

303
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 1: far from what a reality is. You know, you're not

304
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 1: going to live your life going through hypothetical situations. And

305
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: I think what you try to do is you just you.

306
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 1: You think about the process, and the results are what

307
00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 1: they are. So if the process is good, you know,

308
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: and I think through many years of practice and preparation,

309
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 1: we've you know, our program is centered around you know,

310
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 1: winning culture or winning environment, and we're trying to do

311
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 1: the best you know, we can do to to to

312
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: you know, make that process efficient, which helps us prepare,

313
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 1: you know, gives us good competitive stamina. It's all about teamwork,

314
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 1: and then we go out there and we play and

315
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: if we win, we win, great, we're going to get

316
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 1: back to it, and if we lose, we evaluate what

317
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 1: we need to do better, and then we get back

318
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 1: to our process. So I'm not thinking about anything more

319
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 1: than three now, because that's the only thing that matters.

320
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,640
Speaker 1: That's what we got this week today. Wake up, you know,

321
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 1: and I'm thinking about the Jets and how I can

322
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 1: you know, how they're going to attack us and how

323
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: we need to attack them. And it's going to Eban

324
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 1: flo over the course of the whole season. So um,

325
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 1: there's a there's big challenges ahead and to take your

326
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 1: eye off what's really important is that the service to

327
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: the team, and you know we're not doing that. And

328
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 1: what about comparing this team to other teams? Like you

329
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,440
Speaker 1: are you? Do you ever? You know, do you wake

330
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 1: up this morning and go, wow, this you know this

331
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 1: may be one of the better teams that we've ever had,

332
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 1: or do you or do you just not allow that

333
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 1: into your head at all? Well, it's only been two games,

334
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,960
Speaker 1: so I mean through two games we're playing well. But

335
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 1: that's you know, one eighth, one eighth of the season.

336
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 1: So how are we going to do in the next

337
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 1: eighth of the season. You know, That's that's where our

338
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,639
Speaker 1: head that And we've been doing a good job of

339
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 1: taking care of the ball, penalties, field position, turnovers. Um,

340
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,159
Speaker 1: what we haven't done a great job of is you know,

341
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 1: as many points in the red areas we've needed, and

342
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,439
Speaker 1: you know, we've got to keep spreading the ball around,

343
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 1: you know, continue to improve our run game. So there's

344
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 1: a lot of things we need to do here going

345
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 1: in the next week. But we're going to be challenging

346
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,440
Speaker 1: a bunch of different ways, and there's some great teams

347
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 1: out there, as you guys see, and the competition's tough.

348
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 1: So um, you know, that's that's where we're at. Well,

349
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,480
Speaker 1: it's National Guacamole Day, so maybe a cheat day for you,

350
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 1: maybe some nachos later on or is it? Um? I

351
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 1: mean you feel like little nachos, sour cream something like that.

352
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 1: That's a good That's a favorite food of mine too.

353
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 1: So I enjoyed my guawk, but I think we should

354
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 1: sell it. I'm gonna celebrate. I'm definitely gonna have some

355
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:22,640
Speaker 1: clocks tonight. Yeah, all right, well unbelievable, let's get it. Yes, yes,

356
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 1: I mean that's the issue though with the with the

357
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,359
Speaker 1: nachos is that the cheese needs to be spread throughout

358
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 1: the whole entire nacho plate. Would you agree with that?

359
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,399
Speaker 1: I'm not a big nacho guys. If I'm getting my guawk,

360
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 1: I'm getting it more on like you know, tacos or

361
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 1: fajitas or chips and glawker is great, but I'm more

362
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:46,159
Speaker 1: of like, you know, I tough to pass up a

00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,000
