1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,360 Speaker 1: Although how you guys doing today? O? Good? How are 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:12,920 Speaker 1: you great? Many of those top I go watch? Not much? Yeah, 3 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:16,240 Speaker 1: not not much? Maybe season yeah, probably more of an 4 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:18,599 Speaker 1: off season project. But yeah, I just haven't had a 5 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:22,439 Speaker 1: chance to how much much TV this year? Good question? 6 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 1: I'm just on the adage general. One of your former 7 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 1: teammates who you have a great issue with Rob Unkowski 8 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:30,880 Speaker 1: as a finalist. Yeah, in the top one hundred for 9 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 1: tight ends. Yeah, what is your reaction to him being 10 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: a finalist? That's pretty amazing and uh, I mean he's 11 00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:40,240 Speaker 1: certainly deserving and what a great player he was for us, 12 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 1: and there's been a lot of other great tight ends 13 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 1: and you know, just to be even thought about is 14 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:51,479 Speaker 1: I'm sure very flattering. And uh, he's you know, he 15 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 1: earned it. How how close do you think this offense 16 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: is to figue how close to figure what out? We'll 17 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 1: figure out? You? You you said that, I know as 18 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:04,320 Speaker 1: Mac Miller tweet today through Instagram. But how close do 19 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 1: you think this offense is to you know, getting things 20 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: together maybe clicking on all the filders. Yeah, we're you know, 21 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: every I think every week we're making a little progress. 22 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: So every week we're just we're trying to learn from 23 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 1: our mistakes and uh, you know, put just put all 24 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: the right things together and uh, you know, hopefully, you know, 25 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,759 Speaker 1: just keep improving. So it's, uh, guys are working really 26 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: hard and that's been great to see, and that's what 27 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 1: we got to keep doing. It's not you know, things 28 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: just don't kind of happen magically. So we're working pretty 29 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: hard at it. You said that a few times. It's 30 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: your tim that it's there's no magic, you know, quick 31 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 1: and easy solution to what you guys are going through 32 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 1: right now? How much do you embrace the challenge that 33 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 1: comes with trying to get to where you want to be, 34 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: as frustrating as it might be at times, Well, you 35 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: had no you know, you have really no option, you know, 36 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 1: you have we have a job to do, and let's 37 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: just go out there and do the best job we 38 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: could do and score as many points we can. And uh, 39 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 1: I don't think it's uh, you know, trying to you know, 40 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: be less and what we're capable of. So I think 41 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,640 Speaker 1: the point is just we got to maximize our potential. 42 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: And I don't know what our potential is, you know, 43 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 1: but we got to be the best we could be 44 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: and if we do it well one time, it's how 45 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: well can we do it consistently? I think part of 46 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 1: it's just consistently we haven't done a great job. And 47 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 1: I think that when you're not consistent, you know, it 48 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: just leads to other issues. So trying to be consistent 49 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: and dependable is you know, what a great offense is 50 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: all about. And then when you have you know, really 51 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:45,079 Speaker 1: great playmaking ability, you know, I think all those things 52 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,519 Speaker 1: make it very hard to defend kind of the beauty 53 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:51,119 Speaker 1: and but also the frustrating part of sports. It's not scripted. 54 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: You know. Yes, this is a new challenge, a new year, 55 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: and three games to go starting Sunday, and yet you 56 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 1: still have a chance to to get where you want 57 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 1: to go. Yeah, there's there's a lot of new pieces 58 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 1: and and you're always trying to incorporate, you know, from 59 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: week to week and every year it's a little bit 60 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 1: different as challenges are different, and uh, you know, you 61 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: just can't rely on you know, oh well, we'll just 62 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: do exactly what we used to do, or we'll do 63 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: exactly what we did last week. You have to kind 64 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: of remich yourself every week and how the game plan 65 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 1: takes shape and what guys are asked to do in 66 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 1: order to execute take shape, and it's just a it's 67 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: always a little bit of a challenge. But you know 68 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: it's not football seasons not supposed to be easy. You know, 69 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: it's it's a hard grind for us, or it's a 70 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: hard grind for you guys. Um, you know, probably just 71 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: a fantasy football you know, owners they want us to 72 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: play forever. But um, you know we're in the middle 73 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: of it. You know, we're we're we're deep into it. 74 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: And uh, it's gotta have the mental toughness and the 75 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: competitive stamina to keep showing up every day and working 76 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: as hard as you can to be ready to compete, 77 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: you know when we're called upon. Pete Frady's passed away 78 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: this week, the general this morning for them, I know, 79 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: Kevin Eucalis once everyone to raise a pint for Pete 80 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: at six o'clock. Just kind of your thoughts on a 81 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: man that you know gave so much the community, the 82 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: short time and the ice bucket challenge and everything else 83 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: that he just done to fight a LS. Yeah, he 84 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: did it. It just had a great impact and I 85 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,359 Speaker 1: think you know, it took a really tough situation and 86 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 1: turned it into a great positive for people and brought 87 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: great awareness to you know, tremendous costs. And you know 88 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 1: he's resting peacefully now, and you know we wish his 89 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:38,840 Speaker 1: family the best. This football is still fun for you, Yeah, 90 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: as fun as it was ten years ago, fifteen years ago. 91 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not gonna make a bunch of 92 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: comparisons about year to year, but yeah, I love it. 93 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:47,159 Speaker 1: So thank you guys.
