1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:01,680
Speaker 1: Matthew, how you doing today?

2
00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:04,040
Speaker 2: Doing pretty good? Mike, how are.

3
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:08,120
Speaker 1: You doing well? Can you see me? You got me?

4
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:10,800
Speaker 3: Yes, I got you right? Just start?

5
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:12,880
Speaker 1: What did you guys do today? It's a little different

6
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:14,080
Speaker 1: than a normal Monday.

7
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:17,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you know, we started with the film review

8
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 2: from yesterday and then took a little bit of a

9
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:24,439
Speaker 2: break and started to game plan. Obviously, install personnel and

10
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 2: some of our game plan for the week with Pittsburgh

11
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 2: quick turnaround. We know how these Stursday night games go,

12
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 2: so we really got to get on it. And in

13
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,559
Speaker 2: terms of our mental preparation, and you know, not so

14
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:40,319
Speaker 2: much physically, but mentally, we gotta be.

15
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 3: Ready to go.

16
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:45,480
Speaker 1: I was thinking about punt coverage and the punt team

17
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 1: and just how critical those units can be for field position,

18
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: especially when you know the offense is maybe struggling to

19
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 1: put up points. What do you want to see from

20
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: both those units? You know, maybe just to win consistently

21
00:00:58,120 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: in that area.

22
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, you know, really yesterday the Chargers had

23
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 2: the upper hand in terms of field position, and the

24
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,319
Speaker 2: way things are going this year, we just can't have that.

25
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 2: We every game we come into we've got to win

26
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 2: the field position battle, you know, it was obviously disappointing

27
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 2: to give up a little bit of a return there

28
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 2: before the half and allow them to allow them to

29
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 2: get points. So, you know, we just got to do

30
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 2: a better job of trusting each other, tackling, and our

31
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,199
Speaker 2: overall operation. So you know, the guys are working hard

32
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 2: to get that right. We just, you know, again, add

33
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 2: that to the list of things that you know, we

34
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,320
Speaker 2: say we're close on. We got to do this a

35
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 2: little bit better, but you know we've played twelve games,

36
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 2: so there's no excuse for that.

37
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 3: And next question, Zach Cox.

38
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 2: May Matthew, how I'm well, Zach, how were you?

39
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 3: I'm doing well.

40
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 4: We spoke with Bailey last week just about his experience

41
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 4: between getting cut at the end of camp and kind

42
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 4: of what he'd gone through the last couple of months.

43
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 4: He said during that he had some great conversations with you.

44
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,519
Speaker 4: Not to reveal these specifics, but I'm curious if there's

45
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 4: anything you can share about what those conversations were like

46
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 4: and how it felt for you to see him get

47
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 4: an opportunity on Sunday. I know he's a guy you

48
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 4: praised a lot in the past.

49
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 2: Well, you know, Zach, I mean, part of my role

50
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 2: on this team now is to be a mentor in

51
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 2: an year for guys. It doesn't matter who it is,

52
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,919
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter what position, it doesn't matter the situation.

53
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 2: I'm thirty eight years old Howls Bailey twenty three, twenty four,

54
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 2: So it would be a shame if I didn't use

55
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 2: my experience both you know, in the game of football

56
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 2: but in the game of life, to be a resource

57
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 2: for him to support him. And I'm happy to do

58
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,640
Speaker 2: that for anybody on this football team. Him and I

59
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 2: have a really good personal relationship, and you know, I

60
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 2: was happy to walk with him through some of those things.

61
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 2: But you know, I think that's part of my role.

62
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 2: If I can't do that, you know, I think it

63
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 2: decreases from my value, especially at this stage in my career.

64
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 2: So it's something I enjoyed doing and you know, happy

65
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 2: to happy to help however I can. Great.

66
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:28,239
Speaker 3: Thank you, And next question, Mike Race.

67
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: Coming back for another one. Circling around Matthew right, double

68
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: back mine all right, Coach Belichick. You know, I just

69
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: want to ask you, from what you've seen behind the scenes,

70
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 1: is it the same.

71
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 4: To me? It is?

72
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 2: I mean, look, no one, no one on this roster

73
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 2: has more experience playing for coach than I do, and

74
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 2: I've seen a great deal of consistency from him, preparation,

75
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 2: his mindset. You know, his sword hasn't been dulled at all.

76
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 2: And you know, I think he's worked tirelessly this season

77
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 2: to get this team to play the way he knows

78
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 2: we need to play. And you know, I can appreciate that.

79
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 2: You know, regardless of the circumstances, you know what you're

80
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 2: going to get from him. And I think that says

81
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 2: a lot about who he is as a coach. So

82
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 2: no change, Mike. You know, he hasn't he hasn't let

83
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 2: the foot off the gas at all. It's just unfortunate

84
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 2: that things have gone the way that they have this season.

85
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,359
Speaker 3: All Right, that looks like all the questions. Thank you

86
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 3: very much, Matthew
