You know, 13 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:51,559 Speaker 1: I think anything with football, you know, you can kind 14 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:53,479 Speaker 1: of make anything fun, right, I mean, football is a 15 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 1: fun sport, and these guys I love to play it. 16 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 1: So I mean, you know, whether it's a quiz at 17 00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: the end of the week, whether you incorporate you know, 18 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: certain game and you know, in another receiver room we 19 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,399 Speaker 1: play who wants to be a Millionaire and just through 20 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 1: what their assignment is and kind of make it a a 21 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: little fun and whatnot. So I mean, you know, anytime 22 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: you have football information and you can mix it in 23 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 1: with something where they stay engage and you know, at 24 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 1: the end of the week or something like that. It's 25 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 1: really it's really fun and they make a great they 26 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: make a great effort, which is always awesome. How are 27 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: you a millionaire? Is that? Like? Is there a website 28 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 1: for that? And power points a powerful tool, you know, 29 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: I mean you can do a lot of things on 30 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: PowerPoint with animations and stuff. As a as a young coach, 31 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:31,759 Speaker 1: you kind of you kind of get a really good 32 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: at PowerPoint, Excel and video, so you find different ways 33 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:39,119 Speaker 1: to make things very very very easy. Sure, thank you, Yeah, 34 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: no problem. Nice question. Michael Mallen, Hey, Mick, I wanted 35 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: to ask about the group of second year players they 36 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: have come back with Jacobe and the Kill. What's the 37 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: sort of jump that players can make going from their 38 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: rookie year to year two in terms of their mental 39 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: aspects of the game and be able to translate into 40 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 1: their physical play on the field. Yeah. I think anything's easier, 41 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: you know, going from year one to year two and anything, 42 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: you know, whether it's football or life. I think, you know, 43 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: everybody in my receiver room or in our team has 44 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 1: worked really really hard to get better at there's craft 45 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: and after tools another skill set, and you know we're 46 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: just looking to get looking forward, to get on the 47 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 1: field and seeing, you know, what these guys can do 48 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: and how far they've progressed, and you know that everybody's 49 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: working really really hard, so you know, whether that's on 50 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 1: the playbook or on their technique and whatnot. So I 51 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 1: think you know, they have a specific set of goals 52 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 1: that they've set and they've been looking to conquer those 53 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: and go forward. But we all have one goal and 54 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: that's to get better each and every day, you know, 55 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 1: as New England Patriots. I don't see any hands raised. 56 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: If you'd like to ask a question, please do so. Really, 57 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: where's that Okay? We can open it up for anyone 58 00:02:56,040 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: who'd like to ask a question. Hey, Mick, Bill Burrell, 59 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 1: how are you doing? I'm doing well. How are you good? 60 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: So Jacobe Myers, sure tell me the dealings you've had 61 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 1: with him thus far? Sort of an interesting rookie year 62 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: at times, at times look like bona fide player, then 63 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: quote unquote whatever we call it, disappear for a little while, 64 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: make some big plays, then disappear again. What what is 65 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: it about him? I know he had a productive college 66 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: career and especially at the end. But he seems like 67 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: an interesting guy that maybe a lot of people aren't 68 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: talking about. Yeah sure, I mean I you know, I 69 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: was able to get an experience with Jacobe last year, 70 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 1: you know, as a whole offense. And I think Jacoby 71 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: is like any of the young player, you know, he's 72 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: try and come in and prove himself. And last year 73 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: he was an undrafted rookie free agent, and you know, 74 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: he was given opportunities and you know, I was raised 75 00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: on the minstond Bar used to say the Grays Award 76 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: for doing is opportunity to do more, and you know 77 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 1: he did. Jacoby did a lot of you know, decent things, 78 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: and he had the opportunity to play a little bit, 79 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 1: and you know he was giving a lot of roles 80 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: and he took advantage of those roles. And I think 81 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: he's working hard to take getting a more roles. So 82 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: I think, you know, he's trying to build out each 83 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 1: day as any younger players. You know, he's trying to 84 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 1: build each day and win the day and move on 85 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: to the next. So um in terms of carving a role, 86 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 1: you know, we'll see what happens. You know, in camp. 87 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:26,840 Speaker 1: He's gonna work really hard, just as everybody in our 88 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 1: room is and move on from there. Has he from 89 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: what you've seen, is he put our weight from a 90 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: year ago, you know on the light end a year 91 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 1: has he? Has he made sort of a physical jump 92 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: from what you've heard or seen. Unfortunately, build I've seen 93 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: Jacobe mostly through this weback similar to how we're seeing 94 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: the Uni right now. You know, I could be six 95 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: five right here, but unfortun that's not the case. Um. 96 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 1: You know. So look, we're looking forward to get on 97 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: the field with these guys and will be hard to 98 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 1: seeing you know, how we can get them coached up 99 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: and become better players because we haven't done anything on 100 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 1: the field office together than as a few walk through 101 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: so we're looking forward to that. Thank you. Next question 102 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: Mike Petraglia, followed by Norman Prince. Thanks Dan, How you doing, Mick? Mike? 103 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 1: Question for you is we hear so much about a 104 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: young wide receiver in this league and how difficult and 105 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: challenging it can be. Pick up an playbook for you 106 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 1: in your position? You know, first year formerly at this position? 107 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 1: What kind of challenge is it for you to help 108 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 1: the player understand even if he has a year or 109 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: two in the league, what's expected of them? Yeah, I think, 110 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: you know, that's a great question, Mike. Thank you. You know, 111 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 1: I think as a young coach too, you know, I 112 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 1: could speak you know, coaching different positions and coaching on 113 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: the side of the ball, working at scouting, you know, 114 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,679 Speaker 1: you kind of pick up things and and learn different 115 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 1: things and see the game from a global view, you know, 116 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 1: because this is a I would say a deep game 117 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:53,839 Speaker 1: in terms of the mental process. And I think the 118 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: more that I can the processes that I've learned from 119 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: those two things and scouting, coaching defense, coaching the quarterback, 120 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: coach differ positions, you know, I think my experience with that, 121 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 1: you know, can help them and see the game from 122 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: not just the wide receiver standpoint, from a global standpoint, 123 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: whether it's situational football, more technique wise or anything like that. 124 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: So you know, each plays a different chess chess match, 125 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 1: you know, So we're just trying to help them take 126 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 1: advantage of every single move the defense does. So that's 127 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 1: what I would say, you know, for a second or 128 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: third year guy looking from the game from a global 129 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: perspective as opposed to having tunnel vision before I recier perspective. 130 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 1: It's really something that I think is beneficial. Thank you. 131 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: Next question, No, Nicholmalley. So Josh was on another call 132 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: talking about how if you know, if it's quieter with 133 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: less fans or no fans, and some stadiums this year, 134 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 1: there's a need to protect your signaling, protect the calls 135 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: in the communication with the offense. Yeah, what more broadly, 136 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,480 Speaker 1: like what does it sound like on a sideline during 137 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: a game? What is in a normal year, Like what 138 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: is that kind of atmosphere like for you guys, and 139 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 1: what are you hearing when you're standing down there. You know, 140 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: it's funny as a coach, you kind of have just 141 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: such tunnel vision. You know, other than my wife's sitting 142 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: in the stands, if they brought my little boy there, 143 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: I'm really not concerned with the you know, I kind 144 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: of have tunnel vision. You know, I'm worried if my 145 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: wife got to the stadium okay and safely. But other 146 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: than that, you just have funnel Mean, you're so focused 147 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: on your job and you know you can hear the 148 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: you know that you can hear the fans and they're 149 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: so involved in the game and the mood swings and 150 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: everything like that. But as a coach, you're just so 151 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: locked in your players and their assignment and making sure 152 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: they're doing the right thing and you're giving the putting 153 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: in the right spots to do the right thing. So 154 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: I would say, you know, yeah, there are techniques and 155 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: stuff that you can do differently in terms of the 156 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: sound and no sound. But for me as a position coach, 157 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: you know, try and get my guys to execute their 158 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: job and do their job correctly. You know, we got 159 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: tunnel vision and we're just lock and rolling and going. 160 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: You know, that's my home perspective on it, and I 161 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: think that's the receiver respective on it too. Sure, next 162 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 1: question to come out, Oh hey mack um, so tell 163 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: Brady is it was famous for not being super mobile 164 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: but able to move around in the pocket a little bit. 165 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: But Cam Newton and Jared's did him both have a 166 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: different level of mobility in terms of getting be able 167 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,119 Speaker 1: to escape the part and get to the sideline. How 168 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: does that change how a receiver approaches the game knowing 169 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: that there are is a greater chance of extended plays 170 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: or broken plays which you're gonna have to move with 171 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: the quarterback. I mean, you know, obviously, you know, the 172 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 1: game is so fluid, you know, depending on what the 173 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: defense is doing and what we're trying to attack. You know, 174 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: from a receiver's protective we talk about a couple of 175 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 1: things in terms of, you know, what we're trying to attack, 176 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,319 Speaker 1: in terms of what covers the defense is playing. So 177 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: I mean in a broader sense, I mean you could 178 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: say that the receiver, you know, it's just doing their job. 179 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: And you know we talk about scrambled plays. Sure, in 180 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 1: all scenarios, whether Tom's a quarterback or Cam Newton, Brian 181 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,200 Speaker 1: Hoyer or Jared's did him. You know, we're just trying 182 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: to make plays and extend the plays when necessary. I 183 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 1: don't think it's anything that we would you know, says 184 00:08:53,480 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: anything more without Tom here, But you know, thank you. Yeah, 185 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: unless there's a final question, I think we are through 186 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: all right thinking are you appreciate it?
