In football game coming up one on Sunday we're talking about -- in a much on the which. Do next Thursday. But the fact that you've got two quick games here -- only a few days in between. And better that you're doing it against a division fall. We you really know these guys."

That was by the best one out that shoots you guys up front of you five affront Matt Cassel combined effort -- we've seen in these games."

Play from 1:25[1:25]" You know I'd be glad that writes that there -- rookie that you guys didn't do me we don't need an up and you guys there are overly critical of thing. That you know. Whatever you have a guy that but it you're starting quarterback. You know he's going to be scrutinized quite a bit but. From there and point. As an entire team. Despite all of that we -- though were taken steps each week. To get a little bit better toe war for the things we have done so well -- try to you know improve and be at the big but he could do at this point that beat them because. You don't want a little bit of a game last night and it just seems like so many teams are -- BO so many things respectfully. -- on -- injured and I think that you know world war like in you know but it is out there where you know or and that they'll guys that is the world related -- have. You know what experience. In guys step up but it. You know really contribute and I think that you know he's he's a part of that and he's a part of but at -- it you know -- of that but you know at the team you know we've got a lot there's this season."

Play from 2:33[2:33]" That would original blog did you get involved in practice this week. An improvement with both guys -- terror and now. He's injured again that's what it is what it is a."

Play from 2:46[2:46]" You want to it's. A little different because you know. We air and I both Pittman to St. -- You know we've we've faced each other that great battles you know. -- place than here that they do. He won't -- hired you guys that it is. He -- continually make employees then and it they help the for a long long time in the -- the looper was the first beat. You know geared up for both below and and not really you know prepare for them like -- the."

Play from 3:18[3:18]" All right how much film you watch this week on Copeland Bryan and Chris Ellis."

Play from 3:24[3:24]" Well are we want noted that much to repair you know. That are --"

Play from 3:29[3:29]" When you when you got a different guy in there and and obviously. We we all know how good does -- when you when you've got a different guy. You have to spend a little bit more time and it what's this -- technique what does he do best one how can I. Nature of them are protecting what I've got to do."

Play from 3:48[3:48]" Sure yeah I've never ever but it but I think that. It it's it's even more so what like your living through that repeated you don't have that -- an ego or. You know -- they aren't what they do really well and I think that. Field -- but -- only way to start the reputed typical back it is the other what you're you know where you've got to play like you do. Awfully good guys you know are on the road. Yet -- look at although they look -- speed and we get another part people it wouldn't. And other late game and prevent it you know it's -- the field -- a lot of speed. A lot of movement -- are a lot of things that you think that they're going to present a lot of problems for. You don't but I do what the way -- went against so desperate not to what like last week -- it and be whatever. You know I'd give it -- a deal -- that these that. You know a lot they do a lot of thanks to attract the future so this'll be a pick that force."

Play from 4:44[4:44]" Matt when you watch film you basically watch what the last four games in. This is -- team that got out of the blocks quick you know they played out front of people. Last couple weeks kind of downhill for them what -- some of the problems they were they turn football over they just blown assignments."

Play from 5:01[5:01]" diplomat respect regarding a lot of what I do is he held break that down. What the entire game obviously but. Allow that to -- belliard you know third down an editor get out of there for well it could be or -- but I think that. I think do you think about Buffalo you think about you know like record that it -- that very bad in yet that they can make brought -- played at all that that a lot of weapons. And you know. To a guy like oh lead and in their their group and I think that ever. Very big physical but the -- think that. The other speaker -- bebop was the fact they have a very very very very good ones but the -- played. You know it'd that they we've shown that when you have a special teams ago a long way -- help the away game and art but it -- play great. You know to root of the -- the field position it put the other team all along field and Eddie note that the teams are big are these game."

Play from 5:59[5:59]" well we've been talking this week of how important this game is. Mostly because he AFC east who's who's become incredibly tight. In the last three weeks or so you guys do you guys talk about that all was that a factor in your thinking of the vehicles long."

Play from 6:17[6:17]" Yeah I think every time you played. The -- game in other did not wait or your mind that you know the the trip there. You know -- Give one more game up you know you'd never know out there -- they tell you never know what exactly they're determining factor. It's just that it beat you when you divisional game could go a long way -- the upper year old -- let it. -- who won the division and give -- oil."

Play from 6:42[6:42]" Boxes of scheduling wise you know with a short week coming up then went with Thanksgiving is coach you know look forward or. He's still just trying to get past Buffalo thirty. Do you really know how you can approach everything with the Jets with Miami haven't and I playoff before that game."

Play from 6:59[6:59]" and value enemy you know if you were hopeful brown well you know go to the room and you know -- I'll go work that began on Monday could be up Tuesday could be away and they could be -- in every. Week we respect put out. And you know it will be -- that obvious point. It's going to come down but oh well we been prepared. Short week in and they get ready to play you know government. And vehicle at that that public there."

Play from 7:30[7:30]" Hey -- how frustrating was last week's game in that you had a terrific game plan I thought you guys played very well. In all facets of the game and yet a couple of plays here -- there. Made the difference of one or laws."

Play from 7:43[7:43]" It always been the Buick -- that I think got even more though when you're on the road. You know it is. Obviously. And we -- and we went ample lately look that. On the you know. -- and it didn't doorway and I think that. You know that game. Even though we didn't we didn't leave and you -- away and it did when we did show some things that we were able to do. You know like give Matt the and the it -- the very very deep at the front. You know I think we all though. Move the ball pretty well the -- game plan and real hectic -- for the most part. Are all those drive obviously we didn't we were able to finish off a red zone. What we needed to. And at that you know but it bit of a concern but it that would not work on those statements about that. You know we don't they were able to report that point there. It's just going to make a few more of these plays cool and need to start on the road targeted yet figured he'd -- it would. And a road or big team like that."

Play from 8:49[8:49]" That's a lot of Franzen and people who enjoy the team they've they've seen that that Matt Cassel to looks. Not much more confident in the pocket threw it is that translated in practice -- during the week remodel."

Play from 9:02[9:02]" Yet you -- I've felt like -- he's got a great attitude men and brought a lot of the you don't eat breakfast and really prepare -- you know the entire so you know I think for him at this. You know but it only brought this don't go out -- and give them confidence that he could impact their duties and do army. Look. You know whenever -- the where. You know we we let the people get news that our mayor whoever what the -- go -- there. You don't or whatever happened that beat your -- not going to. -- epic game expecting to act so you know it always starts up front do and do a thing. But felt like it was pretty continue to do that they continue to get better. -- opposite got to get you know more more is going to need to feel better back there were a bit more --"

Play from 9:49[9:49]" And what was the last time you were Purdue when after a five game losing Q you guys look forward to play Michigan to snap that."

Play from 9:57[9:57]" I don't know -- Like what the next game and and -- that really gave them. But it was it is it's it's it's going to -- the diplomatic. Not -- that light but that but that -- in game did it help -- a little bit of an area of the pace you know it was. Opposed gave real look at you know like you know got to. I don't know missed -- have the -- they've -- barrier but it was -- Finally went right."

Play from 10:28[10:28]" Also Brady was around this week you were given crap fort."
