Play from 0:00[0:00]" guns go above and I'll -- want to go hard and quiet. Good name one pair of skis patriots playbook cut back on combat on it being on here briefly when. Breaking down last Sunday's game -- Superman coverage. And these Gatorade for the great. Jack do. Great -- the rest of the 2000 about it and it goes. -- because of back. And some of the points stuff in between now feeling John."

Play from 0:55[0:55]" And we welcome you and I think we played. Old one stage in the second and happy New Year no matter where you walk into a happy New Year if you're patriots spend money -- John -- we will conclude the addition of patriots playbook here patriots dot com radio pleased nothing -- not adjusters let them don't ban on the computer you know your competitive and open today because have to go via the telephone today the desired out on the road with some college basketball duties in Syracuse, New York world news tonight so that's delivering papers pollutants from the -- Confines of upstate New York and Syracuse, New -- rooted for only fourteen degrees from lake effect snow here this document that you wish we had a couple of weeks. Yeah it's what I thought but anyway we will hold on the fortieth -- little that -- a little -- college basketball than it has weakened lineup because it's a great -- it is an absolute independent I'd be -- patriots."

Play from 1:54[1:54]" Then what happened that it's something that we talk it's -- long. And it finally took place just -- got the week six and finally got the win finally got through this sixteen and no and it kind of like. Big collective extremely well so what looked in store. I don't know that there are many that -- Paul lo you know back and -- through this week and maybe. Are we talking with -- about this last week for the over the holidays is that that this team is capable of doing what they've done now that they've done it. I kind of incentive is that all the news. That's an appropriate weight to seeing right now because let the everybody realizes from from the players in the locker room to the coaches at all just -- this incident really really work. About the fortunes have distinct. And -- has -- everybody feel similar. That this is not over that this is not finished in the at. This great accomplishment at sixteen a no hitter in the regular season. The very first and you know that your history of the NFL on certain recently since the you go to sixteen game schedule in nineteen equivalent it's quite an accomplishment as it is. It's not completely -- suitable. And that this team wouldn't stumble are you there in the opening round earlier C championship game weren't even in the same -- about better. That would somehow lessen the -- occasionally and quite frankly. I've been to a great it is and it's just sort of set the -- part it would stay in on itself but I think everybody realizes. The June and in myself and anybody who covered just. And -- realize. That is an incomplete accomplishment given the great visited some because those the ultimate goal for every team in the minute there was two in the suitable. So that is still out there in the that is still something for the team to accomplish in US team is -- Bruins -- well. In the postseason. And I think that the mantra that you would hear pretty solidly over the next week depending -- politically get out of -- field and play on the toward that. But actually be what ten -- from building to play again. I think it's -- appreciate this sixty you know I think it's private that a little bit of a that slice of the record book business right now could quit threat that it will realize that it's exactly what is. It's just a little slice of the record book. -- but it's not a complete accomplishment and look at the Super Bowl comes along with the and certainly like your thoughts on that and -- really -- at the patriots dot come that the military as well Brady at the patriots dot com. This would like to move brought -- you know question that is about it -- but -- individual -- the second our program today so we'll. -- Kevin -- week talk golden on the in the soon -- in this room. Stated that -- really been kind of waiting between the placement coming up the collectively of course we're going to play coming -- intended that's really put any single person there's -- things that are possible over the patriots could play. It's going to -- total together as a Gillette stadium course in -- eastern time. -- and by the way who's not a surprise that the that this but the patriots in prime time I'm. You know the patriots have their name global television and now. For the NFL and I think all the -- certainly proven that indicated that the two highest rated programs in prime time television this entire season good to post -- cable program of all the time. And who have been good. So numbers until the big stick the patriots -- ninety. The contract -- view everything we can get better numbers you know that's what you gonna do so regardless of political ambitions in you know announcer capability is probably going to build intricate stick their commitment to. But that's that's what I wanted to ask about that -- complete and -- possible interest in those are in the opening round. -- semifinals I don't. Jacksonville Pittsburgh. One of those three teams will come to do well at in attendance. -- team. -- over and blocked it -- and ultimately think little -- the patriots opponent but to be part of the question. And it's another thing that you wouldn't -- you do approach Wednesday's bats between those three things. And why and and then your preferences. So it's two different things but it will be very -- might not either and that's why. And it just wouldn't have been announced -- patriots dot com that's certainly no question of the day. But it didn't play in ten days and why do you think they will be here. -- still wanna produce a couple of moments in the final few Rodrigo it's just as good work record really email -- here today. And -- kind of thoughts come to mind and then. Honestly you know as the patriots -- the UC division title and they've got the first round playoff spot. They went home to live in this throughout the playoffs -- they wanted to -- you know consistent straight here it's. It's gonna get buried under a little different you know noise that's been made that I wanted to point that out because that hasn't happened before patriots have earned a first round -- for the first time since the current playoff format was adopted in 1990 pictures of the previously earned first round byes in 961 goes through and also. So get -- of the industry of course and to -- Other countries diverted the number important for the second time in team history joining -- 2003. Of course I can sit here for the next hour and 45 minutes until we're done. And getting nothing but superlatives and probably run out of time. Based on the number of record that was set broke franchise rise in the legal rights. This -- the number records stat. The media -- that both patriots public relations department and the National Football League have basically made available pick the patriots have accomplished this year battling record appeals courts. They look towards each of the players and some of the coaches and such and it came to the road course seemed to dispatch to. It doesn't. Really surprised -- you know and encouragement probably it was a -- I was going to kind of runs for the country salad so week. We don't we let go wonder today I'm looking at the officials final and it does this morning and lo and behold. The only time -- for the overall lead in receptions. In the entire National Football League this year and it didn't make the pro bowl. That would be one number 83 did you programs and Wes Welker. 112 catches he doesn't think -- mom. For the overall -- at the olympics in receptions this year. -- cleans your mom that the -- was -- 112 receptions. Well of the Providence nobody in the NC head more than a hundred and it's just. And you can Welker Finley Gonzalez and -- probably less than 100 internal. Including -- again. And and I understand the Braylon Edwards okay -- whole argument again especially can't believe -- will be good opponent you'd like comment on it. I wouldn't consider it final and -- I would obviously open up -- and -- very Olympic bid I think he had about a 140 yards and receptions and a hundred yards and receptions. Then we'll completed and probably in Pakistan will be it was just sixty to 82. Welcome to listen to -- just. I don't. But couldn't target this my math is correct. You can look at just the -- and -- I'm not include work -- not. The world over he knows he deserves it I don't know how you -- have been number well no I haven't been number one of the entire NFL receiver the number of -- Not that. The other pro bowl team not being voted to the pro bowl. -- so there's the military and obviously look at in the into the last week against the giants in the 38 to try to win -- little I don't know -- you're probably a little like me in this regarded. Like in the game -- and anybody. Watch the game exclusively an NFL network the rest of the night and I'll watch tonight into the broadcast networks. It'd be curious to know if you didn't want. It's not working rested on the right. I didn't have been reluctant to him exclusively on an opponent or because I have an havoc with with my DirecTV service and the would be offensive sort of similar to be in the watching the game. And Saturday night they also have satellite dish that is good you know although woods couldn't I Stefan is not going to go watch in the economic situation right so when did that a post. I don't think that I am so. I wouldn't get into this unprecedented and we -- at eventually it's okay without people have been. -- that I don't -- it's okay it's. It's loaded -- allowed to watch. -- like everybody wanted to you know completely didn't -- on the -- and it's just didn't. I'm going to step in its. Lot lot of it and get a lot of criticism for his lack of a certain -- play by play -- but that's been the primary sort of criticism. Against him was announcing this year. And while he still is -- in the importance instilled in hand. In over the total command that in the most people expect from from our guys were probably not just. I two putted fairly credible job because I didn't smartly it's not simply. -- Chris Collins -- a pretty pretty decent decent job of analysis would have been on both sides. A that they could just write about it in credulity from the patriots with their own and that it isn't the right amount of pro am going to try and -- the by all means deserves a tremendous amount of Clement. For the game that they played the team that they couldn't stay in the game play in Bloomington on Saturday night. I can't say that about. I'm glad I don't think it's a lot of them deserted. One of them deserved. I thought the second the giants still up until the patriots were. Well almost an entire full quarters with the exception of maybe the last two minutes of the game. And exchanged blows the patriots. Didn't really think twice about leaving the regulars in the game and the way a couple of companion during the Barcelona there have been the most obvious completely different. Under in the course voted at the Dominican and I'm really impressed by that. It looked out like the -- students depend on Sunday. I don't -- don't complete Leicester -- it was -- taboo against the Redskins. Basically -- Washington a playoff spot in the that's cute little talk about integrity of the game. I didn't know Dallas had nothing to play for -- did nothing to play sort. -- it's going to. And a girl I know the particular challenge and they wanted to be a part of the record book -- to include the perpetrators have been hit more incentives incident. Palestinians and Indianapolis and I would certainly great that. Until I missed its plastic. It's just not take -- look at the patriots through an Internet call. And -- the job that they did an effort to win the game. We have the talent that put on Saturday night and you compare. We've sold in key spots around the league and so on and let it sit in the minutes in the tabloids and in the Redskins. The component spot in the world speak but closed it -- think -- sixth and final spot until the titans I -- invited but -- that that was below all smarmy despite it was too easy. Greatly disappointed you know that the patent and it didn't seem ridiculous that -- Tony Romo implemented -- every played in. I just I was really disappointed in the effort and obviously the Russian history touchdowns when in doubt there's no way we play and so straight. But tendency Everett beats Indianapolis and -- I didn't have to realize that I think everybody realizes that so that's why I don't think that this season games in the sixteenth -- seventeenth. -- think it's awful but I don't know how the NFL -- Excuse this problem and I don't want to go supposed to stick it's a problem problem. Well honestly it's neat it's it's something. Worth discussing. Until it never happens again. And because it happened again this year and it totally screwed Nolan -- To move unemployed and been -- it is like down. And I -- the worst part of that didn't -- contributing writer and proteins were able to television. Plane looked at their best and good luck in the best from their opponent but I don't think I was right I didn't think it was assumed that the Cleveland. -- Cleveland you can certainly make an argument Cleveland had their chances and they don't believe in the loss to Cincinnati. I will definitely be but just couldn't attend Wimbledon since I'm."

Play from 16:17[16:17]" It is what it is I have the total in -- totally understand that but -- just. Systems and didn't quite right. And maybe it never we'll get quite right if you have a suggestion I would look at it and wouldn't recommend wasn't -- that is consistent result over the last couple days and quite frankly. I don't know how you could fix it. I don't know it particularly could make every game actually means something. Unless of course he just didn't predetermined apartments particularly that you could probably six but if you've got a -- of kind of -- you know. Address that situation I'd love to have them that they -- at patriots dot com. You can email address again and so you know you you -- probably -- want and hopefully we'll fire up some emails and -- Simpson might listen. It's important all of the -- because. Little bit -- you got them on the Olympic peninsula next week before -- little extra ticket out of the playoffs. So there's a lot to talk about guns obviously and they wanted to look at police specifically because. The patriots a couple of that's so open about it elkington and the you prefer out of Tennessee Jacksonville Pittsburgh. Number one who had been -- and couldn't -- in particular parliament for the patriots who would have been in the back. And if you think the team that's going to be very dangerous. You can actually implement that as well and I wouldn't mind just just acquaintances if you agree or disagree. Each month old daughter is just going to look at a little bit particularly in Jacksonville I think a lot of people probably think that the protection built. I'm actually I'm actually thinking that this spring will come back for a rematch and in. Hello -- thing I don't know why I couldn't get over the fact that just I think the Pittsburgh at home. And even know exactly and certainly definitely capable I don't think anybody would be surprised if certain there would -- and -- it's just. Little birdie told the Pittsburgh confront a way to -- out. And unless he's sure that the possibly -- reliever it's it's pretty much does a lot of people saying Pittsburgh spend a lot of little league experience and nobody. Holly gets room this week that there's also part of -- that it is going to -- a little upset San Diego but I just don't know that that happens. If I -- very important one -- right here right now the only doctor golden god and it ended local. -- unfortunately that is first and don't be shocked if it's infielder becomes usually it's some championship. I'll be shocked. I don't think it's completely out where -- pat patriots dot com. They believe it's -- wanted but simply going to move on course and the wild card playoff games this Saturday. I would had a second -- Pittsburgh game at 8 o'clock eastern time. And you can actually pregnant and obviously -- didn't do what happens in the -- game on Sunday. Because you second as well per game will be Sunday at Tennessee at Indian little different 30 eastern time kickoff. So kind of -- independently completely upset stone wall and pulled probably around 730. -- and -- would -- the patriots will play after that last. That fourth and final wildcard games over two NFC games are obviously prior to living -- incidents. Saturday will be in Washington at Seattle with thirty content nick Robinson and it's kinda playing with Tampa -- at 1 o'clock eastern time. I'd love -- didn't. It's like let's put. That and I think it certainly can and when that -- this part of me that would likely you know and -- you know wouldn't. Have you reward for playing his valiantly the giant step into the patriots on Saturday and is pulling him off. But you know I realize it until it's definitely welcome like look at we that in so you wonder. How much they actually have left in the tank. After expending quite a bit of their energy limited on the field offensive in the -- Saturday but it patriots -- But it didn't think. They walk them through look at it maybe there's just sort of it's an economic Hubert I think it'll be about -- little -- them enough to -- by put -- community -- think about completely up but I can go to Pittsburgh -- independent testing I'd bet it was Sunday afternoon -- and then known. The little stream in the lowest -- to get through it is Jacksonville Pittsburgh or Tennessee will be against the patriots o'clock eastern damaging -- the twelfth. Observations from on Saturday night game on the road I you know. Like you I'm assuming that -- amount of do you -- a fair amount of aunts throughout the course of the game I thought that the giants inability to run and and played somewhat surprisingly solid. Throughout the course of the game. My liking because we normally nitpick on -- and just didn't have a -- Until you -- because of the new year's holiday would also open a little nit picking here today on Wednesday and over the pit W go to -- prior -- recruited but I also continue to come that -- probably wouldn't do it because I don't know how you can give -- 35 points in the game. Indeed Patrick. Entirely completely and totally at. Just won the pennant. This particular you know. It's a perfect -- about the -- yes you got the number one seed in its history of the underside. And Clinton will win. For the long -- when you converted 35 point. Then of course the most -- prelude to yet but still managed to win to get to the settlement system beloved patriots -- their. I don't know man in the particularly and just Villanova to do enough to win. But I attacked there was some there was some times especially in the second half. So Brandon Jacobs an individual -- can play that included in the secondary that you know concerned a little bit number one. -- the patriots also -- that at times especially over the middle the middle of the secondary can be susceptible to world. You know an accurate passer. And that's why he -- Jacksonville until -- the pain that comes to Foxborough in ten days I think there's some concern and you know. Patriots fans over all the -- is exactly I think if not better the that you don't have benefited exactly perpetrated this. -- good strong run to -- the run -- burned a couple of runs in the trenches. -- well he's no world beater but he certainly exactly it certainly has got to find his targets a little bit big receivers taken total. It's the young students Jacksonville might not be the best matchup of the point. And the patriots excellent -- looked a little bit better I'd attended annual tournament this political course -- party -- this year. And I just you know it's technology and you know he's probably better and so we'll be here. You know -- website and the newspapers and probably -- some discussion on TV and radio. And they didn't hit them second as a hot team. Capitalism tend to let the opportunity that's in that particular that surprised everybody but I -- independent technical technical and get into the suitable. That's certainly look. Then the trendy pick and it's in the Jacksonville Jaguars. I can't I can't say that that's well. I mean I agree it's okay ten days away from the game. And we still don't know yeah he's still pretty you know tackle first place and it would play on Saturday. But you know I can't say that the not a good judgment based on the exact -- has done throughout the course of the regular season and have presented you know what it's actually you know. But it could pick in -- round pick in the I don't think it's very believable so that would. Okay very good total rule -- in. You know recently little or that you speak maintenance and that kind of thing and that is how the patriots and -- we also. After the game against Philadelphia and especially after the game against Baltimore. Another way to look out there who doesn't think any of Baltimore's vice anticipate the patriots. The -- that's important to have his job. I didn't patriots had lost the game to Baltimore and even though -- do what it is to content or thereabouts. I still think -- a brother and sister up. Now of course he's it was kind of stupid you know me and -- that the accident. In the Baltimore look at for a new head coach and not -- those minutes away mover he looked it was a little bit about. It is -- to be honest with you because people with different guys from Brooklyn Murton greatness and it's taken the job at a considerably in 2000. You know I didn't doesn't -- the brutal winter wind which isn't it ironic because it has since we're -- Baltimore has been struggling greatly over the last couple years especially notable group. And blues I think they're good -- with a gun and Gregg Easterbrook obviously neglect I wouldn't -- in -- parliament in I think it was a trend that. Factors that delicate and so much -- him. -- open -- music. Oh in itself later of course -- I think they moved up the title -- will be the answer to that. And obviously that was miserable failure but I thought that Steve McNair still has some like let them. And obviously that's not exactly correct either. Bradley I think Baltimore might -- an extra going to do have a distinct advantage from Smith this year. You gotta look and I would it might have struck out opening patriots. The coach might still have a job. And it worked just as an aside here I think that you know. I'm looking towards the same -- who wrote now it is I think we'll have been. After the game of the Philadelphia Baltimore and kind of like movement -- it was close -- the witnesses on -- team and look. There's some room for improvement here but I guess it's that's also the scary part. It but it has contributed to this and to that extent and -- and decided that nobody's ever -- tour. And hit I'll definitely be better. That is very -- But here's the part I think the patriots must improve I think -- and I think they'll have to would -- people that they don't. But it seemed like flexible competitive and let Cindy go into. And certainly we all know that -- like Indianapolis. And yet still asleep knowing that I look at in the AFC right now I would pick but I didn't. People patriots and patriots have been over Pittsburgh I couldn't have been -- little work and it. -- in. An appropriate control over everybody -- yeah that is going to the political. I broke him in the bullpen the colts couldn't I think Japan. I certainly don't paternalistic and based on the diplomats as the logistics -- a couple of minutes ago. And I think it's -- It's a far cry -- the -- the patriots thirty consultant back on the open a couple of weeks of the season. And you know come out here to play rather than patriots don't play like midwestern. I think -- it would play within an improvement chip on the shoulder as well. Kevin you know -- could definitely would have divisional doubt about it you know between the forward a bit you know you -- welcome you to get open in the end and a run in between the tackles and introduce secondary that he had technical very uncomfortable okay. I thought they had a different -- but physically capable. Supposed to be innocent but I didn't even think he went. It's and not particularly with the exception of Dallas the Dallas they have opposite and parallel right now. -- playing with the patriots that we saw that -- back in on the tennis court turn on the after burners and it will be no more attention -- them you have to remain composed -- 21. To what extent I think that it can match up somewhat offensively. I think definitely didn't -- that quite frankly you know. Probably some what concerned about mistakes but it. I think there are more pain but it didn't particularly on the AFC east side of the court. I don't depend on here and didn't some info Connecticut and McEnroe well yeah. Pat patriots dot com that you noticed were pretty adamant. Patriots dot -- A couple of politics were discussing today and number I want. I think that different to play in ten days in -- two semifinal now what do you think ultimately have been here and -- in its new. Then in the December independently and they will be within it and want to be that different angels. Let me know that Kevin did pick the best interest and after sixteen and then the second doing good this season. -- Boone Pickens will do you have -- distinction I think probably married just. Probably other ideas and then it's -- this -- and talk about that as well. Items on the agenda look around -- cute little it's it's inevitable."

Play from 30:43[30:43]" He's been a three time champions and Super Bowl MVP and kicked off 2000 record pace. Hopefully he gets individual patriots mini replica -- and you can get 140 picked.

Play from 32:43[32:43]" I was well and I'm here again -- Sunday means you're doing of the football. Whether it tailgating in the parking lot throwing the -- get around to just hang in in in watching the game on the tube is all about football. And when you're not watching football -- playing football well I think we both know you're thinking football. And all that could make you a little hungry. That's why there's that tasty snack rap from McDonald's neck grabs now coming your choice of three -- huge pulled barbecue honey mustard and ranch and they're available with grilled or crispy chicken. Delicious and easy to eat a perfect game time -- grab one today. And when you do if you're looking at that you can collectively kind of remind you of the quarterback in the middle of the pocket and now he's a runner by energy actually -- us and let us. -- BP you're thinking a little too much about football.

Brothers -- very hard shots and -- job. We invite you know. Growers when you just can't wait for Sunday."

Play from 34:48[34:48]" I didn't play it's Wednesday's -- the second half didn't anyone no matter where you may think. I'm going to look in the can come and you beautiful today because we -- college basketball game tonight. In Syracuse and think it's -- conference with little incident and kicking situation and -- between whittled down the forty -- in the east. Indeed talking world football league right now -- birdie at the patriots dot com is. We will go disputed that and by the way. Did notice just so little over the Steelers announced -- as a potential opponent the patriots coming up until then people expect that promoted an offensive lineman Johnathan purchase -- from their practice squad. I'm looking Wilkinson limited and easy. Hopelessly in time because -- lost -- starting tackle marvel Smith and max Starks to increase in the last three weeks. -- by the way in Clint Kriewaldt placed on the injured reserve list -- this -- repeatedly over and we -- the top three tackles out. It's important that truly -- that left tackle in the -- game was certainly not against Jacksonville. It's different here than they did to. The gold -- they're going to tackle in the third. -- certainly reluctant at left guard so basically who'd been quite this settling in the offensively and in an effort to. Didn't help and perhaps some kind of -- political advantage against very physical. It's different projects and bill but during the Pittsburgh is going to them right now I think it is in Pittsburgh global didn't seem to go respectable amount to much to. Then look at the latest move from up Pittsburgh campus when the three teams with. They could could potentially face in twelve days and that's basically what I learned from today and that is actually familiar. All the people who went out after the wildcard weekend will be. And that's Foxborough to pick on the patriots Brady -- patriots dot com. It didn't know couldn't simply wanted to blitzes you didn't particularly males from the last couple -- and I looked over it's -- And the tackled Westbrook the cold call attack I was looking into the first corner I can't remember the specific player to -- you know we've just got I can only surmise that it wasn't. Because he didn't grab any physical part of the color that note I think it wasn't a lot of times when guys retail. You can tell it's not to dwell on purpose. It's come -- I don't know -- to face mask you know and you didn't I didn't intend to graduate this and logos like opened with a five yard. And and that's the only thing I can get accused by an individual you know didn't call that was caller particular play. Well known that moves into the -- is material particularly -- none of which are tackle on the road. It's credible threat in the -- pressure get to them and stay focused on the game and had a really looked at dependable blue appropriate nineteenth in total. That a group would be the goal of course Scott note about that. This from comes from -- Right from Kuwait thank you look at the email and you sit around -- you know. I relax old school with a broken all the patriots since 1966. I -- in the first came to Boston College in 1960 and a lot opened by the chargers. 6867 watching the pats was like watching the 62 minutes -- what you -- and one can assume that would agreement. It's so the last game that the Boston patriots which would have loved by the vikings at Harvard stadium but they haven't received blizzard. As many -- to assume that they are proven to have been the last game by the patriots franchise that is we have always known. In any case this whole thing and this is just playing great I never thought I'd see. In the -- this is better than signaled -- end someone -- is -- over here there's never been a sixty -- team until now. Well that would -- great week challenge remains central to their we have been playing a lot of points and I think that killed by a lot of fans armed. In the same does anybody -- want to diminish the next thing you know he's by the football team. I think in common sense and -- that figure that. It's just not going to be decided that this team loses one obligatory. And don't diminish what -- in the regular season but it isn't what -- don't think it's not going to mean much. They didn't ultimately finished the job and spoke did you know one thing they had a pretty good example can't believe you and I know there. It is right so listen up here I would think you can include new comprehend what I'm talking about here. -- this hole sixteen an old run really got started so we will still talking about it. Important permeated every day lives especially here and so patriots dot com radio. Didn't know what the other two. Didn't work in NFL history that finished the regular season independent. If you really know in two months and everybody knows my -- to write and did you notice the campaigns. Not -- honest. And I'm willing to bet that not that television did not know. This was an incomplete to a Dominican born in Chicago Bears. And that isn't very good reason why you did not know because this week to win the big NFL championship in those two years. In any of the Miami in the reminded why world number one who probably a lot of the Miami another like those two teams certainly great that. But the main reason is because Miami went on to win the Super Bowl. They won a championship. And you ultimately time in the hunt until remember championship thanks and we need to win. Over the weekend and then the -- ultimate in the penultimate game. -- an afterthought look. Now remember those go to. That's what Mark and broke into patriots in 2000 instead of throwing the ball. We played -- pretty full -- to Chicago those teams -- we've gotten the regular season didn't have been big did not little blue. You know more than some of the greatest thing of all time well not. And what you know you don't really deserve to be considered one of the greatest teams -- the population ultimately in the championship. It may. That's what this -- paint and on the road you don't get on the verge of being called a little over the greatest football teams and -- going to be -- The National Football League. They only got better. It is winnable. I mean to sound from the -- sort of -- would have done things we will know. Now look at a lot of time of the -- into the Pentagon didn't include. Throughout the course of the year. In the included the pro didn't want to look. And look at food fight players we couldn't have been any better but I think about it other believing -- attract the patriots is -- point. Consider with a good handle on -- 66 green bay Packers and then right. You know you know I'd hope he had applied. Ten minutes at noon include -- pertains to improve and pain that ultimately win the big. But it remembered for the role of all I'm not saying it's another one level and then end up the world which is well what happened. The patriots lose one of these next -- Just an argument. Putt that so we'll go back and finally it would look back on a somewhat little and one of the just the regular season -- technical. Definitely a lot of but its sense of disappointment but it could have been lost so. In order to really invalid and that the patriots did the regular season you've got a lot of I think that's the big thing. Okay go and more emails coming in my extend this when this distinguish friend -- the that took him like I think the giants can look at what Brady must first misinterpret this -- celebration but completely ridiculous. And they actually looked like it was -- most of it's going to spiking the ball but also might have been because Maroney moved in. This -- important and then it all but look like understood anything over the public -- Ted Johnson had done the past. But -- companies will be an understanding motion it is important football. The play -- the pats can Kosovo that was received consistent deal and probably political standing room -- finding your. That's -- emotional drive ending with a pistol and trying to respect to look at some one told the guys are entitled to -- about a little. I can understand -- running the entire all that means something in the third incident then it stopped again. Come on -- despite the ball in big and small island it would just in my car team penalty right. -- okay agree with Mike. I thought would be -- potential right back there. And -- all you know I think he'll need some -- seemed to lose a little -- kind of waiting in the win. Growing and enough that I can remember roll toward the camera. That's -- It was entertaining thing you know like they have eighteen celebrated the that you can't wait until the spice that you right I think this week and you've got there hasn't. An individual discretion on the part and -- and I totally uncalled for but -- unfortunately I don't know in the post and -- probably so and a great thing insist on the other hand those little run here is included into the game. -- looking -- Williams couldn't control. What's it actually took a little and the names that they didn't allow himself to lose focus -- a little tremendous amount of I think and I like him should know better than to do something like been a close game. But really something the pats cannot live close game of the playoffs combined elements of both Anderson has that luckily wasn't called. They could put up an extremely damaging the player -- We drove a costly fifteen yard penalty things like the local papers to beat themselves which in my opinion he only will they compete in this season. Good point told Michael excellent excellent -- Extended to other teams and it's been good opportunities toward this perfectly decent they've been beaten their play not with your own loss of control. Reluctant to put myself when -- a couple of examples Logan gets. Were you know guys like person in this particular -- that -- cool got caught up in the heat of the moment. In very lucky that they didn't concern in the cost the team ultimately victory. And square that with his entire patriots team has been -- And we'll keep its collective cool move to the instances in which I kind of thought the food they -- a little bit of an excellent observation by. Okay -- this when. We don't have a name on this one. You have to -- Connecticut potentially you know brothers. Okay -- in the land of optimistic giant and Tutsis and under the current coaching carousel that affect the patriots -- big -- in Miami. Rex Ryan the next -- coach is going to go to the littlest. To continue to US going to assume it is seeing what move comes to -- competitive after the season could get much less competitive. We can't expect opponents in the second and division and going to continue to get more look at look at the patriots -- to continue to win. Despite -- they -- what they're doing all the more impressive is remarkable even. All of them even -- the concern right now and classroom teacher and then you know we talked a little about this wouldn't you know. Police drove -- we have Bill Parcells before in the -- yeah. -- you know football ops position with the dolphins are no quick -- for the -- and leaving the world to combat eastern Gutenberg certain. For a guy that you obviously heard from the you have been known mr. rob Ryan 13 engine didn't know exactly -- I don't look until rush with a -- particularly when they think around -- and I don't think so that this. You know they couldn't move a little the principal -- the open here in terms of Olympic spot. And they didn't put like my brother in Melbourne and one direction that is possible that you and do something. The patriots doing in -- now I think it's certainly world. This talk -- in terms of an impressive performance going to beat the you don't think this is going to get that much more difficult to compete. Those sort of the visitors went into this game I've ever attended the England on the Plaxico two tables reception of the onside -- The game was captivating and never doubted that the dolphins could get interest back into the game when they were down by twelve. It was a -- and so is concerned about and still concerned about going into the playoffs on the road there will be teaching them out. I've always liked him the suns sprinted toward the beginning of the blueprint like that but I'm more impressed with Tom -- that I moved up. The lone candidate and cynical about Brady and you know what he -- thanks guys keep -- to rework. Good -- PG appreciate that -- little rapid. I think it's the same for the Pittsburgh Steelers of the seventies were much better team -- the patriots -- this -- well. -- compare both teams were deliberately trying to perspective -- and there's little trouble the world champions league can count on him to come in and constantly. And so independent expert to your and without too much. Typical people that would please let this team record and what they did in the playoffs in the seventies. Mid August patriots record in what they've been in the playoffs thus far in the 2000. And so with the ball and he -- comparison that I -- that -- seven want and 77 I think there's no less. Then didn't want to sit in the patriots. You can only really compare the patriots to -- tendency you have to. Around the -- to -- it can be difficult -- in 1977. Steelers were six and in 71113 ability to. And influence of restraint and in recent -- included for a total of ten including five simple. An important at least six million in private company seven to William. Potential to the bulls in the -- trajectory. -- comparison terms. There will be eight timeless argument and broke the will continue to make his pitchers in successive but of course is -- independent more success this email. Come home and home and that's what we have here. It is simplistic. I'm -- senate. But obviously it is participated equivalent of the most passing yards has never -- this Super Bowl that season. Interesting -- from being number one he's not a good thing that is of interest in a little tidbit publicity that might have missed it you looked at in quarterbacks who have little entire NFL in passing yards for a single season. And no one has ever won a suitable course Brady looked -- political 1800 secured a signature. Last year was completely sleeping in the world community came to. In those guys who's putting people -- lost in the division around in those opposed Daunte Culpepper the vikings. He -- 4770 and lost in the division around. And then in 2003 the colts. And from forty to sixty didn't want competitive championship. 2002 it's okay with children and supporting six maybe nonetheless it's comparable to those little local -- and the -- You can -- any Flutie and of course we all know the rams lost its possible the patriots. And 2000 it was -- again with a colts. -- completely thirteen colts lost the wildcard. In fact was -- have to go back nineteen salute then Marino. His 5000 certain -- in the years. Single best suitable time in the bullpen and also know those it would -- the bullet through marine lieutenant. Nobody else. And we missed some ball much less one that really didn't work. Makes it into our student wanted to doesn't want intended in 2002 military quarterbacks even reached the Super Bowl. Interest in Anderson -- I have not seen that. Prior to this email. Whoever -- thank you friend crap. In germantown Maryland so well what is being sent. I was -- it was nearly impossible for 260 you know the patent on it now the question arises can the team win a signal in my in my distinguish when he wouldn't get their. And still skeptical. And the thing to England season when I heard anything can all the players just comment that they know the real season begins now. I think -- and his -- to win against all odds in front of the home crowd. I don't think anybody has become the sting of losing to the cold of the AFC championship. And -- the interest to political again I'll say this developed an Olympic event analytical this year. Colts content -- no comeback this year but pleasant became the patriots to win the post and the school. And the lead over their opponents instead of playing a comeback and again this and anything can complement clinical. It's good early season -- some early put out putt there from different threat. In germantown Maryland who's listened to move from -- the big Manitoba. I didn't think and then go to the embassy teams in the -- particular would have beaten three of the five. Cleveland had gotten and they would have beaten four -- five. In the attitude that I completely out of respect spread out pennants. This pick and other eleven playoff teams interest of playing and beaten. Seemed like a lot from the intensity and with a meaningless record for the patriots issued. Good point. Not true that is really -- and it probably statistical little bit. We didn't decide let's -- comparisons to -- and 72 dolphins particular attention -- the patriots statistics -- because -- the -- beaten -- record in the -- season the patriots played well. Tougher competition. Relatives and political vision in the -- and seventy to have a little volatile food. And in Jerusalem -- they have good things can look this up that in the equivalent to compete in their entirety you. England fourteen and -- in the regular season. This particular point pain in him going sixteen you know. So running decision isn't totally but it -- that -- part of the schedule. In the opposite brutally beaten back in 1972 and you can only. And again and is scheduled to be an adult -- that it but I understand if you gonna have to make a comparison here. In comparison to stand side by side the patriots certainly hope there will. -- played at least this it's my knowledge of public competition. Okay we'll present a little sister on happened yeah just brings attempt content to Palestinian suitable alternative. It's unlikely that -- and -- you wouldn't get worse. And significant between the olympics didn't want to protect the community support and spent almost no opportunity and deterred. It was a broken companies have already been beaten at home existing and -- this powerhouse AFC team but the patriots have not this year. The reason my main reason for wanting this -- yeah. According to patriots didn't think -- played almost every power team in the NFL at some point this season and beaten them. This would have been interesting weekend can return -- and -- A little -- and success against the cold and haven't since its ups for the team champions. Tests to tickets to Texas this attitude and that's been good incentives but that's the thing in the prospects. Listen to the titans mr. Kraft and compressing it so they just understand that. The regular season wins there goal but has just Sox in the Super Bowl. And that -- the test and tested the pistons didn't forgotten."

I don't pretend to look clearly clearly among the three options and is he is that he -- team you want to play because I think that the gap between you know guy. The thought the first five team. And Tennessee is far wider than -- the gap between the patriots in team to working for I think that he is you know far away the worst team."

Play from 1:00:00[1:00:00]" Playoffs right now and and I think they're Derek -- I think they're the teams that didn't make the playoffs that are better than me. That is he doesn't scare me much at all if on the patriots are rooting for up -- and -- Diego this weekend. On and you know -- you know I don't see that happening but I think stranger things have happened because San Diego if there's one thing that we know it's certainly know from last year is that San Diego can do whatever they want the regular season. On based on a lot to prove when it comes in the month of January so on guy I wouldn't rule out that kind of upset but. You know realistically speaking we're talking about the play the winner of the Jacksonville Pittsburgh and and down -- I I do think that right now and Jacksonville would prove to be the tougher opponent. On for a few reasons and and certainly -- that that's part of the reason why I think Jacksonville will be Pittsburgh actually on I think yeah I think maybe it's a proponent Pittsburgh you know reeling from the guys that the loss of Willie parker they've lost a couple of guys in their offensive line. I think including max Starks who's out now the playoffs and on and -- don't think the guys we know the patriots did to them a couple of weeks back non. And you know maybe there is another Anthony Smith or someone one of his teammates who will give the patriots the motivation they need this time around we've we've we can bet on that though it's I know I I think I think Jacksonville is the toughest of the three possible opponents next to mine would be Pittsburgh and then and then Tennessee would be the most welcome I think."

Play from 1:01:28[1:01:28]" Yeah I would I that it had been programmed although I didn't at least I started off to them. Conversation ran a puppet you know I'd have thought that maybe Jacksonville will be detained but I sort of sort of -- spurred the -- that they were desperate and -- practice quarterback and -- I think I couldn't find -- way. And I wouldn't because the party played them let it into another well known to. Somewhat and psychologically and so that game means nothing and that they will probably pay them their best behavior -- flexible -- the government like."

Play from 1:01:58[1:01:58]" Right like the one thing I think the thing that that that is going to be hammered into the patriots starting when they come back into work tomorrow morning threat is. It's a New Year it's a New Year -- 2008 not to down seven and whatever happened in the regular season it is goes for every team would ever happen in the regular season. The rode out the window it's a ring in New Year world oh no no team is ahead of any other team we're start from scratch. On and I think that would include in the case of Pittsburgh since they're the only of the only wanted to read in the pages of play this year priority. Do not even think about what happened on number nine it is meaningless it's a different season. It's a different team forget about any that I I think that's the one element that's going to be hammered home more than anything else this week. On -- some players. From Saturday night alluded to the fact that they know what's coming to -- sure we get four days off we know what's come into -- come Thursday -- he's going to -- into -- and we didn't do anything though. On the other the fact they played Pittsburgh in the last you know -- in the last month on. You know that that that could play a role but probable for the Jacksonville Pittsburgh it is a couple weeks ago -- they'll beat them. Jackson will -- Pittsburgh in the elements in Pittsburgh directed -- bank in Pittsburgh you know came back community game in Jacksonville prevailed so. I think we'll look at that game that's a real interest or line and you know Jacksonville do you know gentle pull off a win in Pittsburgh and oratory -- in the play at home twice within a month on. -- but -- Jack ability it pretty well down -- and no make a lot of mistakes that would the fans I think there's solid team on. I I don't. I don't think they can come up your win. On but I think that they have that they could provide tougher opponent for the patriots next week in Pittsburgh."

Play from 1:03:47[1:03:47]" I would kind of -- you know personally -- for you know -- Pittsburgh as a suggestion because some interdependent -- going to get I'm lucky. Number I think it is possible -- confident."

Play from 1:03:58[1:03:58]" Now the question with Tennessee is today about and today they give themselves a better chance to win -- Kerry Collins the quarterback Vince young. Well I have -- yes."

Play from 1:04:07[1:04:07]" I'm happy that there will be some -- they would sit -- desperate frankly if it's -- ultimate I don't know how that's the -- It's probably in the quarters of really didn't around and that the pain until then I just I think Tennessee has little or no and shopped minister."

Play from 1:04:22[1:04:22]" And I you know and and he has had a great year and and you know. There's a reason why Kerry Collins is a backup obviously prices starter worthy he'd be the starter but you know we he does have obviously far more postseason experience and and might not BI. These bite bite the pressure of the postseason but. On yet you don't if you think Tennessee and didn't get hit another game that the match up or should be a rematch from the couple weeks ago is he in the Tennessee -- had a lead against San Diego senior and that one I'm pretty sure it was in overtime. On he got that you know story line as well back in our recent rematch kind of the theme -- it appears -- Era for some of these the -- if the wildcard."

Play from 1:05:04[1:05:04]" Right absolutely yeah. At different style comedy in the email address this in the middle to -- yeah I love and Hendry wants it is. Very happy you do Jon Bryant all the patriots nation employable listeners finally sixteen and -- little finished 2007. I think it will be Jacksonville coming to Foxborough distillers are without parker that's important -- I think potential ticket and then. But like the Steelers -- home so it's not an easy pick. I don't think it matters when the patriot -- special events. It's great numbers fifty post and bring in 20% -- Clinton told that you look at. And the pilot in England points whatever it is only lucky number the matter is now and that's number three -- Morgan's. In the --"

Play from 1:05:49[1:05:49]" I think I think ultimately from a talent standpoint. It it doesn't matter who the patriots play -- they will beat whoever they play an -- round. And you know let's face it we're we're not we're not breaking any new ground here by saying that -- I don't think that they I I think he will be whichever team it is it doesn't. It doesn't matter -- with the authorities in that sense I think you're going to be whoever it is but it does matter from a standpoint of where the patriots ranks forty opposing team's eyes ranks. Both were all looking towards you know the dissects your matchup with would be that the following week -- if everything plays reform with the Indianapolis but -- it matters who they play obviously but I think that each of the three here are beautiful in this particular game right."

Play from 1:06:32[1:06:32]" The other one thing that I didn't end as well in the first -- preventative Brian was. In I felt a little seeded. I -- know Indian duke and Lindell and allowing Tennessee to beat them in the by the cowboys went down and run -- and get in the minutes since they're glad to question. Honestly I don't know how we could pick the but it doesn't look good ideas and help you know we. You know as player assistant where we wouldn't get games like this in the last week of the regular season to get -- thought. And again you don't hear from Poland in Belfast Ireland places today. Good afternoon. You know nothing can come up with a solution and -- to go get him all the credit here but here and sit in sports can look. In order to -- okay is competitive. There's just sort of being relegated to one league will. You can finish in the -- to places token little league and finished in the top three promoted to leap about look at the road an important important games between at least. Fighting for survival really good to watch -- that would translate will be and it felt good -- after several camps in Europe and there are hundreds of opinions. You know. The location. And -- you know obviously couldn't haven't even if you don't -- have a minor league and an animal now. You know including I don't know I didn't really something we don't have enough so you've been. But the playing well again that's just so that I I think -- can't. The complete and total integrity of the game intact and you know what I -- Regardless of -- sir I didn't have a total of just what Alison and ran displaced experience over the prohibited talking about. How old are admirable I thought the try to effort on Saturday night must I thought it was a stupid understand. I was really happy the patriots took its its best shot and then basically come through. I was impressed with the fact that it's going to complain about it in the play on Saturday night and so. Because of that. And -- particularly but the cold and with the cowboys really don't -- comparisons and the worst start conference to let you know. 35 million people on Saturday night you know it's something that the President Bush is no the weakest link that in the teams played well."

Play from 1:08:46[1:08:46]" Yet you know you it's hard to argue with the notion that it. A coach is going to do for his team. Whatever he feels is in the best interest of that team for the ultimate goal which is making the playoffs and once you've made the playoffs Ian. Whatever the perfect position is that you feel that is to advance in the playoffs. If Tony Dungy decided that the best course of action for his team. To proceed into and through the playoffs. Is that Peyton Manning play one half of that game and then -- And for his defensive players to eighty play quarter some of them play half and then -- if he feels that that the best thing for his team. Then he should do -- It's hard to argue with that notion and I I agree with you with the off. It it it it's it's a tough dilemma for the league because not only designate four. The team to be at less quality to them. But it all looked at teams that are hitting by and watch the -- Indianapolis game affected more than just tennis in Indianapolis Cleveland is sitting at home. Hoping that they get into the playoffs right way to get in the playoffs is for the team that is not going all out to win the game. That puts a tough spot same thing with I guess it was meant -- although Minnesota had RD loss or losing -- time though there were different dynamic there. It's difficult for. Anyone whether the the commissioner. Whether it be in owner of the team to tell his coach. -- do something tactically that it goes against what the coach feels is the best interest of the team to be prepared playoff on now. With with relegation and that's it that the concept that is far -- never once here. On and I'm not you know why you know why I am aware of how it works a little bit but on you know for for. What would it take for Indianapolis of the most incentive to go all out -- game I don't know what that would be on any incentive that's that goes beyond. We want to be as fresh as possible for the playoffs we want to be in perfect position to make a playoff run there has to be a greater incentive. And I don't know what that is."

Play from 1:10:55[1:10:55]" Now I just I don't know that and -- believed in addition to come up with. But you know if there was validity in Rhode Island but yeah I don't think that it's total it's going to motivating factor and just."

Play from 1:11:08[1:11:08]" But how does that affect Indianapolis. On acting out and I kind of you know you don't Indianapolis is -- is in -- being relegated whether they win or lose that I don't know I'm unless you know I mean the."

Play from 1:11:20[1:11:20]" League mandated and sit. You -- draft choice you know world must play you know one half or something."

Play from 1:11:28[1:11:28]" How do you you know I mean what what if -- you know. How do you. Hell a cult that and what -- the coach who died that you know from a -- is no appoint this quote unquote starter. Is not what I want my game plan for the first you know for the first half or any part of -- meaning -- the guy you want. Down the stretch of a game that you need to win but you know maybe I Tony Dungy I don't Joseph Addai -- that on. Is different then who Kenton Keith and ten key is do we want to and he could make BK that while the the game for can keep. You know. I don't. Yeah yeah and and I just like that. -- needs to be a greater incentive then what is best for the team for the play aren't and it's -- you come up Benson -- immediate need B maybe there is a portal. Team incentive on for a four total wins in the -- you know on the eightieth Indianapolis Colts as an organization and had an opportune you don't. If what what how to when they have fourteen and ended they'll netted thirteen three record and a lot. Maybe if you know every win that a team get the organization get some we widened and the weather be. Monitor I I don't know I I don't know what that would be I'm just trying to think out loud here but it's hard for me to come up with what what what it would take. Do in this data colts do something with his team that he doesn't feel is the right thing for right. And that's exactly so I I you know it's too bad it was it was. You know that that you know I you'd know that Dallas could probably play a more complete game and did against Washington. You know Indianapolis could play a more complete game and they did against -- but I can't argue with what those teams -- on on."

Play from 1:13:17[1:13:17]" Right continental and it can be considered to -- complain that the game was so close that it has been again the words do and respect and -- to play that well. The magic -- to the patriots are they're unpredictable like that in those sort of things didn't but the opponent can't anticipate them. -- nitpick at this time. It's starting to look like other teams are figuring them out there's bound to happen but it isn't quite that wouldn't -- I'm concerned that the split and will no doubt been status have a good unless we're not coming up with a -- didn't do. We'll have had over the course still weaknesses and they are still there without about the -- veteran. The defense can solidify weaknesses were also can handle those guys -- coaching staff. But that's sort stepping to the relative anonymity that no personal incident but it didn't perfect storm but nobody in his right before."

Play from 1:14:11[1:14:11]" You know all. I mean sure there -- some weakness is it took you on defense if figuring out the patriots allowing 65 yard -- actually -- changing touchdown in the fourth quarter. Then and figure out all you why you know I mean what do what do what you don't. Yes they're they're they've had tiger teams in the month of December are more tighter games in the month of December than they had in September October November combined. On but they're still. Obviously winning these games they are coming from behind they are winning with what to play in the fourth quarter even if they are you off there behind. On teams might be figuring out a little bit -- a little bit there on. But ultimately. It's the patriot tour coming through in the fourth quarter it's the patriot tour solving the other team in the fourth quarter and down -- it. If this is the definition of -- blueprint or I forget -- player wise -- said. Again with Rodney Harrison a couple weeks ago after the Philadelphia game. If that's the blueprint then. Keep reading off the difference and right we don't you know the patriots picked up aging nearly three times in that game against Philadelphia well. If that's the blueprint then they happy with getting three interceptions against. The opposing team every week that's going to put -- in better position to win. It was a close game at Philadelphia and he played its best game of the year or maybe the giants played their game of the year. But ultimately the -- patriots were coming through the and I'm against whichever opponent it wherever quality people it is so. I don't know if teams are figuring them out just as much as on. If it's hard to go if it's in nearly impossible to go six you know regular season. It's even more impossible to go you know in blowout. The patriots in Edwards sixty you know with about ten -- a close game I think they'll take that if they have close games in the playoffs. I think they're comfortable and confident in the way that they play in tight games. That even if the team figured them out quote unquote through three quarters they will turn a return the favor figure out the opposing team in the final quarter."

Play from 1:16:11[1:16:11]" Brian -- lifelong Pat's been living in Savannah, Georgia I think Jacksonville will be part of Pittsburgh in the come to Foxboro and ended up. Because than physical but against -- it's certainly -- political dispute. We have all witnessed during the course of 2000 couldn't really understand the patriots as an intensity at which. It's playoff football the middle -- the Elizabeth Christensen last year before the post -- once they started looking into different opponents. The opportunity this year to watching history in the making and it just -- right. The press -- computer to another level the past decade have been only twenty you have to you have to cut the level of play in the second season. Actually good point."

Play from 1:16:51[1:16:51]" Yeah it is a good point and guys you know we can point to lie to typically the years they've had a spot clearly the bye week. Help any team that is -- the patriots when it when it -- the bye week date steam roll through playoffs when they don't we it was a needed the second or third round. On that certainly helps you know date I don't know Thon. On a two years ago when a destroyed Jacksonville but then lost. The Denver if it ever dated a peaked around our playoffs but I -- in the point and it's a good point and and that's what you want to do and that's kind of how they you know on it they don't fret. When they going to lie you know if they have players and in the Middle East in or stay on you know if they go through and and and in. Trying time it was a game -- here -- there on they don't fret because what they work towards peeking around -- year and and it sort of -- point eight you know. This isn't a team that is you know just happy to be there when playing January beer minimum is playing in January that they design there. On the -- there there -- schedule if you will of the entire season based upon. Planes -- you know they they I'm sure the coaching staff has a master plan when it comes to. You know once in November and number the practice schedule make sure -- going to be fresh on down threatened in the playoffs you know they 8888 -- that they have that -- and inept at till the end. The fact that the going to be playing in January and keep that in mind and that's why they try to. They try to peek at the time a year and and and -- At their peak performance practice wise and playing wise I'm here with Alliedsignal I don't think it's it's a surprise that -- Yeah they're playing well here."

Play from 1:18:42[1:18:42]" Right Jack and this -- pro sportsman of the year he's -- spread out. What do you think about this tournament has been -- pats -- that I finally is thrown -- look at it this way if you -- the most wonderful golfer but the game didn't work. Not to take a look -- it's -- guy. That makes sense."

Play from 1:19:00[1:19:00]" Let's -- what public -- like you know. Like Roger Federer. We have a pretty good year I had no idea I I was taken aback by -- Barbara -- I read the story it was good or does a lot you know we've gone through a lot on the field off the field. And I don't know you know I've never seen in writing exactly what the qualifications our sport -- the year on. I any real I didn't think that he was cute -- he'd never crossed my mind is."

Play from 1:19:25[1:19:25]" I don't know there's a specific. You know those criteria alone in the fact that didn't happen -- good story right and left Indianapolis it is clearly excellent -- part of your game. Been in and you know I don't have a tremendous improvement although I have to admit that a bit surprised. It sound and have been alone multiples in the bank but they're still hold. And in this particular instance that's one of the system that they did but as far as last year -- this might be it's a pat on the back the Brooklyn."

Play from 1:19:54[1:19:54]" Yes and take Brady has the sporting news player of the year I don't know he won that everyone's sport any one's Sports Illustrated it was two years ago yeah you know I'm I'm I'm not you know sympathetic towards Brady in this particular instance I'm okay you know not a I don't -- I don't feel -- a travesty that."

Play from 1:20:12[1:20:12]" And you know I don't know I don't know I don't know well when so much you can only win so not a it and you know I I. You know becoming because -- the greatest he's in a quarterback has ever had. And leading the greatest team regular season -- ever been keen. I think in Brady's -- it would we went with being right at that point at the -- right."

Play from 1:20:36[1:20:36]" Com news I'm in front and I was surprised that he lost his cool on that late penalty the food was also there was this was -- broken -- They have the three stooges marathon and improved."

Play from 1:20:50[1:20:50]" Well what -- he was. I think he he he did put the fingers through helmet and."

Play from 1:20:56[1:20:56]" And ironically he's an open and -- It's you know I didn't talk about the opponent and economic community -- it's it's plastic especially to guys like. I haven't heard and we know conveniently privatized and especially -- sports teams -- and I'm very lucky. But it did not get you know. Further."

Play from 1:21:18[1:21:18]" Yeah you know there's it was it was a chippy game they're the we're dirty -- brought round by a few players. -- don't you know what what's interesting about it is I remember that the playoff game in Denver two years ago Logan Mankins got a acted from that game it was right around halftime for something that happened at the -- title and it was our last I don't remember there was a great you know camera angle because you know what happens is you know the -- lineup -- the line in the bottom of the -- running back you know you never know what happens. I'm but it was egregious enough that Logan Mankins got rejected -- humor that and and so you know. What what Wilfork it was ordered after the play it was it was on. You know -- it appeared to be intentional and it appeared he put his fingers through it. I guess I did it wouldn't have been a donor. It would have been a daughter if they did choose -- I guess I mean it was you know I don't know what you with ultimately going to happen as far as I'm I don't expect it to be mentioned but. You know I mean you gotta be careful with those guys and you'd you'd you'd -- put your your team in that position if you egregiously you know. You know -- a penalty after a play like that there are not going audible team don't in Iraq I think there was these directories at their hands full with out."

Play from 1:22:39[1:22:39]" That went against -- they're consistently the most notable maybe most egregious ones. I'm scout in Washington DC I'm sort of more but it was still in his best suited to being into -- that I enlisted in the wind -- coming into England. On the twelfth and and I would most that the colts would love to see them knocked off. I want this weekend of October and to win this best suited to this big the past so. And he's been the backbone Pittsburg the latter two obviously would require the titans -- and it's sort of -- better suited tips and -- and yeah. I think."

Play from 1:23:16[1:23:16]" I would -- that's a great question because if you're like me and you feel pretty confident that the patriots will be able to win. They're game -- games here against whichever the three -- then I you know you start to think about the potential match the next week you know to great point. On fourteen most suited to beating India in -- great question."

Play from 1:23:34[1:23:34]" I think I personally my -- is San Diego that it was going to all the offensive elements together you know -- Stevenson trouble an indictment didn't -- enough and they can be able to keep up with billions result sent."

Play from 1:23:48[1:23:48]" Yeah and you know they they had that game that odd game on the week after the patriots played indeed add that that game against the Indy and Diego and it. On San Diego wind the rule lie you know help Adam Vinatieri and and and others and Payton and with six interceptions I Antonio Cromartie you know meaning might still be having nightmares and Antonio Cromartie guy and -- he will go into that game. I'm so I I think -- Diego is or is it -- follow on. You know it's hard to imagine seen Diego based on their history winning two straight games and you know what they do win this weekend I'm going into India's top -- go anything you will be tough. For any team just like coming at him in Foxborough will be on I don't think Pittsburgh they get by Jacksonville at any any hope in eighty and Jacksonville would have a tough time -- I I would have to say. That's -- Diego. Would probably did -- that game but I don't all fun too -- too confident they going to go in their win. I think they can give the best game because they're the best talent probably among the teams and they've beaten Indy Ari this year and I you know would be different elements obviously being in the -- write non. But I I would say. I would say it it's a tough task at the tough task whichever team that is going in there and a lot of it depends -- on on on on. You know where -- with with some of their injuries and and you know we've seen what what's happening with them in the past when they -- sorted out coasted through those last couple weeks trivia. You know and when when they lost to San Diego to and they are perfect season a couple of years ago you know they lost to Pittsburgh in the first round playoff. On other different factors there wouldn't be I don't I I personally think it's all going to come down -- England match up couple weeks from now but. What it."

Play from 1:25:35[1:25:35]" That's -- it right up until Florida. It is probably political movement and nobody lives in this strong -- my guess is unlikely innocent. And -- the course he could be particularly given the after the publicity stayed focused and probably go to the patriots. Because then you'd be humble and like Murton there will be competent the humble. They're not invincible until they know this would coach Belichick promote independent and could well. He's not athletic he's not just making -- to motivate them. With a good chance they'll let the Brazilians and so on that's -- programs. In the sixty at the games actually worked with chuck Sullivan and the kid's talent and doesn't really don't believe the present time with."

Play from 1:26:18[1:26:18]" While critics don't. -- a lot of don't go real far back in the past her back a pro showing his age where it was over and Stewart to blitz us we go."

Play from 1:26:33[1:26:33]" John -- here it is attributed to read Japanese it is our -- I think this last weekend after all the questions but now it's an album did. How you do anyway that's a big advantage yeah -- answered -- but the breaking the -- I answered yes. Not a break rice's record yeah welcome Robert Troy Brown's record yet that's exactly right no. Exactly right no. I don't know exactly right bogeyed it eliminated -- groups that did not happen to. No I don't know -- would actually like -- the recession -- no answer. Broadcasting on the brink of spite me yes. Yeah let someone know. It's incredible difference in the US and I didn't think I'll be right no. -- with the guard and right -- but it took the punt -- protesting yes not exactly the wanted to. I would further developments in Oakland look on his -- like his brother -- go in -- good. All of a regular here -- didn't crack -- I didn't really break his record he knows. The crowd and that's what he does know well we didn't get a job this predictions --"

Play from 1:27:46[1:27:46]" Not bad not bad guy you know all the records you nailed and then you know as far as the -- only deals Thomas had a second man in. And now only Ellis Hobbs senator sessions so you know parts it hard to predict those I guess I don't know Iran now."

Play from 1:28:01[1:28:01]" I don't think there's definitely an unlimited women will look. They've given the good and they Sweden women who were going to play."

Play from 1:28:07[1:28:07]" Sure it will be great now. Yeah except. Well we are -- you know it's kind of a -- we are -- here as we await he had the team's return tomorrow still weigh in on the next opponent but sort talking about it and player perspective on you know cleaning you know clean -- going into the post season but on the other hand you know -- else on the -- and you know every -- the patriot team built the target for any team they won't forget the patriots -- undefeated. Teams in the playoffs won't we won't forget that nobody could knock off an undefeated team all -- players expecting it to the going to happen at target as a in the playoffs. Here and I you know still I'm still talk will be about that -- game against the giants so lots still recover -- a lot more to go through the week in who the players at it tomorrow and come back into work."

Play from 1:28:52[1:28:52]" Good stuff that's further aspect and in. Fact I didn't -- starting tomorrow I don't exactly and then you know. Monday they'll come on in the morning and I'm sure the coaches will have the I team playing all prepared for whichever team does the play. Absolutely I would look at could have been next week excellent I'll be here expect -- that you."

Play from 1:29:11[1:29:11]" Finally the patriots today of course you can get program than your patriots dot com. What we'll wrap up the programs they just because it was such an extraordinarily good and -- transpired -- Sunday -- Over the television coverage in the three networks and that the record didn't. We want you to relive some of the league probably -- little little this before but it just doesn't -- take -- We want to take him back in the patriots locker room. After the game on Saturday and it can't but wouldn't the excitement but and you -- from the -- aggressive from Tom Brady and Randy ball out. In the post and comment because again so -- look at the different talking about the based on the record. That was so. But somebody extraordinary performances along the road course the ultimate. Extraordinary performance would be sixteen in -- market wrap up the and it's no need to lead the patriots. The position that nobody had ever been in the works with a chance to go nineteen to know if they can -- and a -- but still a lot of work to do. Extraordinary and nevertheless the test to where they all right now waiting. To open up the playoffs and -- it's. Some -- the that would -- times and passed channel that the moment is correct knows. -- and so wouldn't be in Milwaukee tomorrow but I will be really -- I didn't it has been good so let's hear the front mount the -- Brady ended up in the aftermath of -- when there was sentiment on come up this past Saturday."

Play from 1:30:42[1:30:42]" Photos I was somewhere defenses seasons. It's really -- and be part of of this football team and Nolan buddies 'cause this info credit -- players they. They stepped up the -- lot of outstanding plays at critical times and again especially their second -- fourth quarter and finally came -- like my family here so. It's a great feeling. You know now's the time to kind of take a day or two. Hand they appreciate what what this team has done by the same time. So looking forward you know we've got -- coming up and -- going to have to be ready for the I don't know who's going to be against but that's unbelievable team whoever is. But in the meantime. You know around figured -- little time to enjoy his opponent and I don't feel good about what we accomplished -- we need to. Pretty soon intern visual on the roadside happy for the players. To win and I -- know I know we -- an individual records and so forth and so on so what I can and all those individually. Also wanted to congratulate those players or they're individual accomplishments or. Quite an accomplishment it's so. Com both guys are going to -- all -- other had to do what else is well positioning and I'm sure they'll the only good job they got good football team a well coached they're heroes. We just hope we can handle tonight. I'm happy I'm happy. It's -- you know. You worked well all year so try to win every game -- little animal has it's great I'm very happy about. It's what's good about the bad plays Randy had a -- me. Drop the ball and then he came back okay players and there -- players who fell and you know we'll lose Randy was out -- tests stated ball's lose truly can't that I can play analyst and next Wednesday they want to. Hello hello my -- fence where those -- corner came up and then travel Wednesday he went over the -- and Randy are random and -- out there is great program thing right -- number it's okay. First let players -- it is part of what they'll. Good how do you. My -- now. Well look I don't think that was our best football game on Thursday and a lot of things we can do better and -- may have wrigley don't. You know we just we knew we had a better fellow pro sports announcer but all in on the -- on both. Things we just you know we didn't do -- better job okay hopefully next time we'll play well next time we play -- plus those things improve. It's -- huge players. It's I think there's so little I mean again I say he's always been special place for me all gears here and and they were told -- of the giants so we had some great season's championship seasons and then suddenly units and I was -- always social change -- found scorer you know I think Kurt runs and I was I was thrilled to be a part of some of those. Those units as well so you know it's always -- want to come back here giants stadium on the fact that. What happened today was here. I don't know any place else -- valid. Well you know aren't our team is we've been behind before yeah. -- then then these guys just. As -- you have made made plays and -- well -- for every -- fair. Oh weathers my return Indianapolis game whether someone -- score on offense. It's still -- today insisted. Everybody's comes through once I'm going to look for the season then though I was goes -- it certainly wasn't perfect there were a lot of things that there weren't all that good drives me a lot of plays -- But fortunately we had just a few more -- night and again all the credit goes the players and -- men and a minimum of pressure and -- when there was little margin for error. Wells interception. Colts scores on these fans coming offense and I you know following covered -- all the better so. You know -- when we had to make and we had. So players are happy they said they work hard it's what they've done is. It's good they should be nothing. For a little while but we've got to move on we got you know we've got another big game coming up then we'll have to turn the page but for right now it is -- the great kind of feel good about. So today and then they're in the the regular season it's way at all why this team was able to do something that's never been done no I can't analyze every team every season -- to save lives these guys work harder to take our primary job. And in the end variables made the plays in critical situations to win games when they had to and and they deserve credit for that there once they're. It's you know -- and it was -- Johnson great pass -- Individually they they can rush the passer and then personally bring your skin loses that's that was our first trying to front who's not just more members and tires and Faxon. Receivers dozens Paula -- and until they tell all your. Saw him tight ends and -- very good job and everything open and receivers. Comes together and get their routes just literally quit going to -- Tom your rhythm also. You know -- it's a team concept and be able to handle pressure on Castro it's gonna work together enough for the most part did tonight. I think -- unsportsmanlike call very well. Okay and everybody's. It's there's a whole different way he has played tennis in Leicester. I'm going to -- finally kind of tennis he's played also run on both. -- and excellence. Does it -- before you say and I and I certainly believe every word of the it also was. I mean only me and there's no meaningless games when your final. It will play and again this means to us -- done -- on some of the Johnson so why not -- thank you -- Miami fingers standings. -- your plane and here -- better than you do them I think that was true but don't feel it. Closest place it's. They explanation was that it was there are too -- Wimbledon solvers I didn't say there's there's some people -- Okay I don't know nine he's here I can evaluate all he knows them I'm proud of what our team do happy for the players that that's true. I can make comparisons and whether your -- relief it's funny guys. How did you -- both already hit it right here and what we're doing a story the -- I'm I'm happy for all players and all I know those -- Rawle Marshall what -- and they all about. Whatever they weren't happy out of -- and the players certainly deserve you know it's but sixteen game early season schedule their a lot of so broken plays along away and in the fact that that they added up to -- record breaking plays and all is just great I'm happy for those players. I'm more happy for the team but with the team accomplish them whatever records -- all away. You know braves -- ones that it's okay do it with a team accomplishes the -- than your normal things -- Your life playing here line. Players here -- I mean you know the long and goes Charlie is online I was saying glad to be able to over and then then -- Charlie home after the -- came -- so but he was there. He's got this great great 'cause of the giants and patriots and and knows them both places. Chancellor hearing loss here. Okay okay it's. Iran is an outstanding player well there was a chance. There's there's always has improved our team that's going to. Then and it's a tremendous players -- great leader and he's -- strong in every phase of the game. Okay thank you."

Play from 1:40:10[1:40:10]" That would have neighbors are on them on the previous ones to sing in -- 400 -- third down play in his thirties and he had nine -- was just -- just ago. And I Dave -- is commonplace okay. -- stuff on I want Randy does that with the with the technique the corner plays so I thought as far as like thirty. Doesn't anybody remember. Considering where dramatic -- guys. Rose to records no way around here. Well well I'm I think what I'm most proud -- is is playing a playoff team on the road team and they were playing as soon -- down. However many were eleven -- one point or ten at one point and I find a way to combat can win and we just ten billion dollars this year the same thing in the this year. And I. There's some tough games of Baltimore we're down quite I didn't and we really rallied back and so -- toughness and some character in. It's gonna love hopefully prepares for -- we're going to face next month so. I was going to enjoy this and this happens once every 35 years it's so great for a couple of days and Jerry Jerry look --"

Play from 1:41:28[1:41:28]" Okay."

Play from 1:41:31[1:41:31]" Well I think -- I think coaches it's kept us pretty grounded so she's she's not so concerned -- you know records and stuff like that he's he's most concerned with. Best friend our best out there each week and and the veterans like respond then you brought some of the younger guys along anything and they say well in and it's really been a group team type effort in Sunday's offense is played really well. Some days the defense is really. -- played well and I was good enough today to win and I might get the -- there again on the onside kick I was standing right there and I. I was pretty excited -- it's. It's you know done any kind of records say -- you unless -- Well now I'm not really not really we really do with being mean on the field season so. It's it's kind of tricky game but it really doesn't mean that much but it means a lot and I think the players about how to approach your real well in practice. It's free from prepared students and play a game and played very very difficult game so. I guess I'm proud of the way that we response they're in the second half I thought the giants played really well -- he's certainly didn't play our best in the first half -- championships the red zone and then. Scored touchdowns in. We made plays when needed to."

Play from 1:42:51[1:42:51]" Okay you wildest dreams did you ever imagine it's. Touchdown passes this season and at what point did you start the -- this year that the number was in relief."

Play from 1:43:03[1:43:03]" I -- I'd say there's a -- I never thought about it or try to do you know for any differently than. From what I've always tried to do is just try to find the open guys on the ball and just like there's a great job and I was doing receivers -- played -- great offensive lines protection and we had been sex so few times. What has made as we drove a ball then it's because the receivers get open end of the line protects well and we're running the ball better now so. I'm just proud of the way we play like -- even more so than any individual record which to me is how how. It's just not as important as what I've experienced in the past seven years and then what other stories tonight so. I left so low scores fifty touchdowns from fifteen to them as we scored -- times. It's sort of showed touchdowns there. Robredo scoring record which is pretty cool for the offense to share -- new defense to good -- lot of friends that defense the way they've they're Guinness book also. Those are -- achievements and just decided to part of it's a great. It's been great in the place forced a lot of fun they're saying oh okay. Good question highest bidder I guess and I say he had as ever as though incidences in. He does say Richard I got a Jersey and I a lot of memories sort of yourself. So much talk about right here you know I don't I think you can certainly you know finally having. I certainly -- your -- regular season and -- and an -- dinner ready for what we've been prepare for a season so I think you have to have the week off position report for us a lesson in a little bit of pressure is relieved at least for this week. Pound I had -- going to turn the pressure on Thursday or go back so. I just literally in the sense that. You know we we we have a week off from and I -- a little bit so. We -- it's okay bigger fish to fry what happens the only assume mobile six you know me. Got to win their divisional game -- so just so we we play our best and a couple of weeks of and we wish it -- went pretty Super -- we know lesser goal every year and has been this point the last couple years gone -- I -- And I think responded well come back this season early try to put our best out there so. Should be an exciting game a couple weeks and I hope we play better and we played tonight because we're going to play. Best teams out there it's just. Whoever gets there it's it's going to be very challenging AFC. Play on this tonight can you win a playoff game when you play like tonight I lost my. So we hope we can play better over the over your score -- red area recently kicker a bunch of field goals by the same time that's how we've responded when we needed to about defense came up some big plays els is -- Usually important tonight and we'll see it's Abreu we'll see if we can. We can put together a season. Some momentum here in the next couple weeks."

Play from 1:46:22[1:46:22]" It's really really far away his fourth quarter third quarter -- sports. It's there's some things that you do like him back on free throw shooter like the same thing to alleviate the pressure. Okay play your best when he really hadn't played maybe your best earlier in the game business -- okay."

Play from 1:46:41[1:46:41]" Always pressure there's there's pressure every time we are there on the Steelers haven't -- the -- there's pressure is pressure to receivers to get open and offensive linemen protected. I think we just made plays and we didn't make them earlier in the game and this is going to score there we. We had some great drives that didn't feel goes unfortunately -- prospect we can turn the ball over and I didn't get them short field -- well myself."

Play from 1:47:07[1:47:07]" Some guys don't play your best the end of the game where the pressure's really OK you done an out. It's really know what's happening here Minnesota rebounds."

Play from 1:47:15[1:47:15]" Our guys to step up. It's grain reserves. -- step -- and Baltimore west at west has -- third down catches tonight offensive lie detector wasn't my best defensive lines -- so. Has pressured by everybody -- on a close call the right player and you know my -- just so it's trying to figure out what the hell's going on out there and those guys who can't slow -- right there what tonight look. It's terrible it's awful. He's the best so he makes it easy on the had a good night guys thank you."

Play from 1:47:53[1:47:53]" But whoever the first play those kind that the balls on the throw a little bit in the a travel best come back and get it. Because -- nobody messing I don't know if -- cornerback or safety dusting one -- fall. So that I knew it was my chance to trying to get -- it Dick kitchen moved office look further today it to the end zone but. I missed the ball and you know jogged back to total and a very next play they called a play that was really designed you know Wes Welker to go out and get first down but the corner and safety trek west to -- death trap Tommy and have thrown a ball there to hit the ball it felt that. Tommy made a good read how that you guys you know executed play them. I think it's really would jump start the jump started the second I don't really know what was going my -- relate. I had this really is really an out route and what I had to do which is clear out. Try to get -- work for the ball for the first down like to -- but you know they both trapped. Corner and safety trip west and try to trick Tom into throwing that ball and Thomas made good read. Legacy eleven guys execute didn't you know play was finished luckily for six and like a -- think this would jump started the the second half. Yeah yeah. Request a lot of time. -- thanks for the great great. I don't really think -- breaking Jerry rice's records special I think shut you guys that is really roommate especially. All the negative all the negativity and all the critics I think there's really. No good -- of tonight's big would have to come in and have a -- need a good season like distance. To have confidence in myself that I can still get it done and Castilla are really wouldn't. Really coming into the season not thinking that I was coming out here going have a good season. You know Hamas that was come out ahead and have a helluva season now what those numbers were I didn't really know I just want to come up and and placing the football this year nor was much -- leagues though. Good things happening see what happens. Well I think dollar thing that we can do with the -- historical season is really enjoy it for 44 no more than 48 hours we have a tough game second round of the playoffs is no -- who were going to play. But he -- playoffs and anything can happen it just isn't really one game at a time and if you lose you're out so like a seven -- and really enjoyed this for what we've accomplished.
