[0:00]" I have another -- after that I knew it was a nuclear and long offseason or -- towards not. And yeah I think everybody's good side good or bad and it's. I think we realize we've got a pretty good team and Thomas their games you know we've. We. Got to get five tougher to practice we think we're going to need it. And you know though it always season begins and hope the rain is enough. Forecasted things become. Trying to. Finger was exciting back. Ending the season oh how it did that make this season -- offseason longer -- How long did you get what's this sort offseason and -- we've played all the way today and and I mean we've we're at this point away with the way it ended there's no doubt about it he can -- you know that's that's part of it's part of competing -- and you can't always control the outcome you control. How much you put into it and I noticed he put everything we could into it so I think there's a lot of I think part of that that helps you move forward is to say okay we did the best we can do and it didn't turn out -- a little light but sometimes that that happens and and we're moving forward just as much energy in his excitement. Hope that we can go out there and compete as hard as we can. And try to put yourself in the best position can't. You know each each and every week we got pretty noticeable. -- ago. You can hear me. Those guys notable absentees. And we've we've missed every guy we've -- we've ever lost received from from the very successful seasons but Dayton all the way back today. Lawyer Malloy and Drew Bledsoe and Ty Law and we've we've always this -- so. I think part of it for years there's changes and -- it's it's hard to make. You know comparison to cure we've never had the same team that comes back in fact there's no coach is here in his news -- new teams that were planned. The -- schedule so. I think it'll it'll start fresh for us excited today."

[2:03]" Tom do you -- student of the game. As long history of course the Super Bowl not being successful and it here and I look at what do you -- for what those teams went through. They make your team positive rather than later this week. Well I think we've we've just we start with. Taking taken leadership from our coach and example that he set -- I don't think he's too too concerned with what anybody did last year including ourselves. I think he's concerned with what we did today and -- do tomorrow. So I think that's where it all starts and I don't. I don't think that that put any -- ever done initially felt we have any effect on what we're going to do this year I think we're going to do the best we can do I think we're going to try to do the best we can do everyday in practice and hopefully at least to a lot of wins between how on Super Bowl I mean as a team in the film room situation like -- you premature again to a second. -- we'll keep it would not like -- we watch and learn from it we learn things that we didn't do so well we learn that things we we we did well. And it wasn't all bad it was on the team. I think like most games like he comes out to a couple place and we were. We didn't make plays this game and that's -- outcome turn out the way it did but it. You know where luck we're going to learn from that we're learn from the games we want and try to always make improvements are always. Learn from my from the previous week. To put it behind you watch it more. Who was the the gut feeling. Well you always have emotions that you realize this when you thought after the game so when you see it again you think I felt after the game just like -- you -- games you won you think it makes them feel after the game. Yeah. You know it's it's it's really it was one game and last season as well. We always we get a little bit better. It's you can't change it all he really can't as much as hard as you want to think you can change you can and so what can you do you can move forward you can move forward. -- awareness that you can do things better. You know we're going to try to do things better. And all -- I think there's a lot of improvements that we need to make -- the team so. No we can have we can try to garden and compete as hard as we can't it was just tough league it's tough schedule and it's tough conference. And I -- those teams are always going to be trying to be so so it's been for. Since I got -- personality offseason this past like with similar traveling more basketball games it took it and you know what felt. It was great for every year things get better. I really enjoy it. At that time. You know which was that people family and friends. I think I'm also anxious to back up plan and I love competing and you know in March and April you're not so excited about football but it. He's doing until I come here anxious to get back you -- teammates and second back to work three. Would have picked up from. It was it was it was fun to watch I think it's exciting for the city because of its history the Celtic organization. And I really respect tomorrow those guys and and the players on the team and coaching. The general manager and ownership and they've always been so supportive. What we do and I think it's cool as a community. You know all the Boston community knowing community can come together and watch those guys -- I was excited target especially for guys that haven't had that experience to win the championship and you know how to feel self. You get excited for for those guys Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen Paula had played so long enough experience didn't matter the world champs plump how much time. Last year we do. Following previous -- how much do you think you have to prove this year."

[5:43]" Well I don't think. You know I don't think that's what I think about I don't think about proven anything anybody except. Proving that we can work hard you know -- he can't. I don't think if you focus on you've proven people wrong -- to focus on. Two in the best she can do and control how much effort you put into each time you take that the practice field in the media room. Controlled effort you put out and a we focused on that for a long time zone and no matter what anyone thinks or says it really doesn't it doesn't matter as much as I -- I want to think it matters because I think it doesn't matter. It's just we're going to control we can control and that's. Our preparation and our effort our attitude."

[6:23]" Given -- of both physically mentally good -- so it is -- Yeah yeah I think. Each year I've learned a little something different and I think the goal this year isn't to -- so marquis did announce. I think for our team it's the same thing the goal is to be ready to play. In September and what we ever we need to do to get to that point that's what our coach is gonna put us through. I think it's a veteran team and we've on offense were pretty much have everybody back so. I don't think it's going to take what it took. In terms of a lot of good things that we cover last year it's gonna we're going to cover a lot of things that's going to be different things and hopefully we can build."

[7:06]" And Upton went -- receivers -- is different this year."

[7:10]" Yeah -- we know whatever he can do and we know whatever he's capable of so I don't think it's so much it. I know when we break the huddle last year you know guys who started right in front of the left because that's what they had to go and trying to figure out how to run routes and what I'm looking forward. Now you get the huddle and you tell Randy with -- he knows exactly what you're going to do and -- and he knows that we're gonna do -- what he's going to do and same with western -- All of I mean it's pretty much everybody self. I think part of that alert lead the better execution and if you can execute more consistently then you're gonna have better execution. You know over the long term which is which are looking forward. There's a lot of guys who can do really good for one play and then it goes bad for one play in and I think -- you want to try to do it. And it is right as often as possible so that -- can. It was not a negative plays and things that prohibit you from scoring."

[8:00]" We got that huge numbers."

[8:05]" Well like I said it's I don't know it this year is going to call for him and hopefully for the other team scores forty points we can score more than forty minute if they score three point we can score more than three so. I think. It's he's he's going to be different. However many we need to score hope that's what we scored three years ago. When he went and I think AF elect -- didn't -- didn't younger I feel like in my body feels really did with Pakistan. In good shape and an. Arm feels really good. Minefields -- most important so I think rates this kind of attack this season. So you we can make it number. Yeah I think you know we don't have -- this afternoon so I think for me -- twice today. I don't think it's important in I think. You know make sure the refs I take are good -- rather -- to two practice days you know it's good for good for arms and that's what it's good for for me. Some guys can do it but I think for me up over the long term it's going to be beat. Beneficiary today. -- I think it's whatever whatever that broke all sport so -- scripts this group's practice and the run game work on the run game how to execute the right. If it's conditioning or are and it quick stroke and throwing the ball whatever coach what to -- that. Adorable that. Yet -- Yet ankles. It was great. But when I was certain intervals there. I swim and -- an of would -- in the third. Now now I gave it up. David I didn't. And compete for the pitcher that would compete I would want but I chose not that it. -- attribute. It. Now and now I think you know there was other there's there's other things have come up in my life that I had to make choices and -- You know one of the choices was listed him. You know spent time -- with with things that I don't get the opportunity to do when I'm in the football season. So. Yeah. Advocates and -- it was an altercation. -- Yeah I think light and I would like optical bearden you know and I thought that transaction here at most two most excited players. And on the NFL's so. I appreciate them very much I let him know -- as well. Daria we were only in each other track near us it was awesome."
