25
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 6: Last year when the Patriots went to Germany, Robert Kraft

26
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 6: kind of gave a speech to the team talking about

27
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 6: how important it is to win on the international stage.

28
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 6: These are memorable games for a lot of people. Has

29
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:12,319
Speaker 6: a similar message, but been told to you guys for

30
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 6: this game.

31
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you know, coach may I mentioned that

32
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 3: back of the in the hotel this morning, team meaning

33
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,040
Speaker 3: I don't think if I stand great, I don't think

34
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,119
Speaker 3: we've lost over here and the internationally yet. So we're

35
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 3: trying to keep that same keep that same motto and

36
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,320
Speaker 3: hopefully come out here with a win Sunday.

37
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 7: Hi Drake, We've already asked your head coach, but we're

38
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 7: looking for great and busters and what better than yourself

39
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 7: for the Patriots. There are a lot of fans here

40
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,559
Speaker 7: in the UK who are yet to have an NFL

41
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 7: team that they support and devote their lives to. What

42
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 7: is your message for those new fans? Why should they

43
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 7: be supporting the Patriots?

44
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 3: First off, I think it comes with the team name,

45
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 3: you know, New England. I think it's easy for you know,

46
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 3: UK fans to be attracted to that, you know, our

47
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 3: colors are pretty sweet. You know, they represent a lot

48
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 3: of different things. And then from there just kind of

49
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 3: the excitement from the team. I think we got you know,

50
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 3: we're on the come up and we've got a lot

51
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 3: of things to look forward to, a lot of bright

52
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 3: futures ahead. So shout out to all the fans that

53
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 3: already pat your fans over here and look forward to

54
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 3: having some more than Drake guy.

55
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 1: Now, in your second week preparing as the starter, how

56
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: would you say your comfort level has grown?

57
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:18,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the biggest thing is just being around

58
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 3: the huddle, being around the hudle, getting confidence, you know,

59
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 3: making play calls and you know, having answers for for

60
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 3: different stuff and have answers for the defense it was doing,

61
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 3: you know against us, And I think that's the biggest thing.

62
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 3: Other than that, just trying to you know, get used

63
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 3: to preparing and it's a little different preparing for your internationally,

64
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 3: a little different schedule, but uh, you know, going through

65
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 3: plays and you know, asking a question. I think the

66
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,919
Speaker 3: biggest thing you ask questions from for a VP or

67
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 3: TC or even you know the receivers, Hey what do

68
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 3: you think on this look? And and stuff like that.

69
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 3: To try to you know, kind of try to hammer

70
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 3: home every little thing and just the case it comes

71
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 3: up in the game tree.

72
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 8: In terms of the opponents you've got on Sunday, the

73
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 8: Jags have allowed the second most patting out this season.

74
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 8: In terms of your debut last week against the Texas,

75
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 8: you had tuition forty three yards you know, three touchdown

76
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 8: to three different players. It includes ninety two yards to

77
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,919
Speaker 8: the Mario Douglas. In terms of the defense you're paying

78
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 8: against the secondary particular, how confident are you in terms

79
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 8: of being able to split out to different players, get

80
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 8: the ball that quickly and pulling a show in front

81
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 8: of the London crowd.

82
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. I think it would be fun. I think

83
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 3: it'll be you know, awesome to Hopefully we'll get the

84
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 3: run game going this week. I think that's the big

85
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,639
Speaker 3: insists in this league especially and for our offense. Get

86
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 3: the running going and hopefully that opened up some some

87
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 3: passing lanes and like I said, just get different guys

88
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 3: the football. It's my job finding completions, find completions early.

89
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 3: We need to start fast. Coach has been preaching that

90
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 3: all week, so then that's our that's our job and

91
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 3: really my job and often decide as the quarterback. You know,

92
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 3: I touched the ball we played to get going fast

93
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 3: and get these guys.

94
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 1: Going, Drake right, just with the time change and stuff

95
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: like that, Like, have you done anything differently with your

96
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 1: routine this week to get used to being over here

97
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 1: at the time?

98
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 3: No, I think just I think, you know, they preach hydrate,

99
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 3: you know. I think that you can do is take

100
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,119
Speaker 3: care of your body, to carry your body the best way.

101
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 3: And you know, I think you know now that we're

102
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 3: over here after practice to day, you know, rest up.

103
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 3: You know, came over here, like I said, for a

104
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 3: business trip for a football game, to come over here

105
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 3: to see London. No offense, but you know, caring for a

106
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 3: football game, and you're excited to have different fan bases

107
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 3: there and the new fans, but uh, you know, really

108
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 3: it's just another football game and we're getting ready.

109
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 2: For Hi, Drake. How is the relationship coming along with

110
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 2: the running backs and the wide receiver so far, because

111
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 2: obviously you're.

112
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 3: Very new into the offense at the moment.

113
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 8: How's that relationship going.

114
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's something you know, even when I

115
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 3: was a backup, trying to build relationships with those guys.

116
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 3: You know, the starters with the guys out there making plays,

117
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 3: So looking forward to get back out there and hopefully

118
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 3: making some more plays. But you know, those guys are

119
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,359
Speaker 3: you know, great dudes, and and just my job to

120
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 3: get them the football and have them, you know, watch

121
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 3: them make plays.

122
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 8: Hey, Drake, I know earlier in the week you did

123
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 8: say that you know, some of the game planning could

124
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 8: change the schedule wise because of it being an international game.

125
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:54,720
Speaker 8: How has that changed.

126
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 3: For you this week? Yeah? I think other than you'll

127
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 3: not being able to watch the practice right after yesterday

128
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,119
Speaker 3: for for Thursday practice, we've gotta get on the plane

129
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,039
Speaker 3: just to catch up on some practice tape yesterday. But

130
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 3: really other than that, I think we're trying to get

131
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 3: back on the normal schedule. We'll have a typical Friday

132
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 3: out here today, you know, same practice schedule going through

133
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,799
Speaker 3: you know, different periods and and seeing different different throws

134
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 3: and different kind of circumstances throughout the games that we

135
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 3: try to replicate during practice. So really the same schedule,

136
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 3: just probably to catch up on yesterday's film and you

137
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 3: always usually watch that after practice as a quarterback anyway,

138
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 3: so nothing new, but just in a different spot and

139
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 3: you know a lot of new different things, so just

140
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 3: trying to navigate that.

141
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 5: Hi, Jake, is there anything you've taken from playing with

142
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,159
Speaker 5: the North Carolina tar Hills that you're bring in like

143
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 5: to be in a rookie this year, like being in

144
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 5: a new environment that any young tips you would give

145
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 5: for young athletes.

146
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's a great question. It kind of

147
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 3: for me from coming from college football to the NFL.

148
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 3: Just try to be the same player that I am

149
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 3: in college. I think that's the biggest thing. Kind of

150
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,160
Speaker 3: don't lose sight of the players that I did make

151
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 3: in the player that I was in college just goes

152
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 3: new league and maybe some better players out there film

153
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 3: lose out of kind of the players I was making

154
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,679
Speaker 3: and the fun I had, you know in the college level.

155
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 9: Hey Drake, welcome to London on the front.

156
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 2: Hey sorry, now you're good. How are you doing?

157
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 6: Man?

00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 3: How about you?

159
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 2: Yeah?

160
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 3: Good? Thank you.

161
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 9: I've watched a lot of your tape in college.

162
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 2: Come into the league.

163
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:19,840
Speaker 9: You have great touch of velocity on your throes. I

164
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 9: think we saw some of that against Texans on face

165
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 9: by pocket pressure. Just in terms of your mechanics, have

166
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,839
Speaker 9: it to make any adjustments coming from college to the

167
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:29,840
Speaker 9: pro level, because other rookies have spoken about that in

168
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 9: the past.

169
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:31,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the biggest thing is trying to get

170
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:33,719
Speaker 3: the football out. You know, these these d linemen and

171
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,160
Speaker 3: these defensive you know guys and you know, decordators try

172
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 3: to get after you young quarterbacks are trying to get

173
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:40,919
Speaker 3: the ball out and have answers and you know about

174
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 3: not being afraid to check the football down. So that's

175
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 3: kind of the biggest thing I'm I'm learning and trying to,

176
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 3: you know, get better out each and every week. Is

177
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 3: you know, not not taking Saxon took some last week

178
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 3: that we're on the quarterback and need to try to

179
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 3: help myself and help those guys up front, you know,

180
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,240
Speaker 3: this week going in and not taking sacks and trying

181
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 3: to get the football to guys out there. That makes

182
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 3: the place he is.

183
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 2: Have you from from Spain? My question is about your

184
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 2: leadership in the locker room. If there is any change

185
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 2: or anything that you have put in place after being

186
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 2: in a call as a starter.

187
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's you know, I think that's kind

188
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 3: of my my thing not to try to change, you know,

189
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 3: who I was in the locker room probably be the

190
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 3: same guy you know, I think a little more you

191
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 3: expect me in the huddle. You know, we're out there

192
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 3: as an offense of being the quarterback, getting the guys

193
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 3: going and get him going and practicing the huddle. But

194
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 3: really you get captain's on this team that do a

195
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 3: great job leading these guys, and my dad has kind

196
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 3: of earned the respect of those guys. The road goes,

197
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 3: and as we go down the road, I can kind

198
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 3: of build more and more verbal.

199
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 5: Drake.

200
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 4: I got to ask on Wednesday, you made a comment

201
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 4: about to Mario Douglas saying you can't guard him in

202
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 4: a phone booth. Was that just a coincidence about coming

203
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 4: to London or.

204
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 3: Was that I gotta asked, No, it's you know, common

205
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 3: term that you know he was growing up with a

206
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,960
Speaker 3: guy that so just happened to me a coincidence and

207
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 3: it was playing out you say that. So glad to

208
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 3: have you know, pop on our side of the football

209
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 3: and look forward to watching them on Sunday.

210
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 1: Hey, Drake, last week, another rookie quarterback at a big

211
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,240
Speaker 1: game against the Jags. Anything you can learn from that

212
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: or take from from that game from watching it?

213
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 2: Yeah?

214
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, watching Caleb, you know, had a big win over

215
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 3: the of the Jags out here, and uh, just seeing

216
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 3: I think, you know, Caleb Mason plays you know, on

217
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 3: the on the move and you know the biggest thing

218
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 3: with him, I thought, he you made some nice throws

219
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 3: and that's the thing last week that I feel like

220
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 3: I had some throws that I had back and just

221
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 3: looking forward to think Cab is a nice job of

222
00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 3: taking them what defense gives them. And you know, I

223
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 3: think you can see each and every week Caleb's getting better

224
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 3: and I feel like a lot of a lot of

225
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 3: that will happen these you know with US rookie quarterbacks.

226
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 3: So hopefully that continues in the trim with me. But

227
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 3: it was always I think it's pretty cool watching the

228
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 3: Texans how they handle Caleb and now watching the Jags

229
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 3: what they did against you know, quarterbacks is uh, it's

230
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,199
Speaker 3: good for for me, you know, watch them what they do.

231
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,199
Speaker 3: So thank you
