Play from 0:00[0:00]" Matt Cassel good morning -- how Loria. Or more aren't -- G well hodgman you're off time which -- relax a little bit. Yet that Horry got a tip from now I've got to relax a couple of smoke Oden went off you movies so. Good deal will will -- Quantum of solace in of the -- role -- will be. Yeah that that. -- required they would end up playing football you watch football like a fan. I want a little bit -- a little bit earlier he gave it at all if they aren't there yet -- all watched the pieces a lot of different in. The bad news last week usually have -- what turnaround on 45 days -- short work notice that the plate Thursday. Now you get the extra time on the other end is that significant these extra couple of days just that as you say get away and put your feet up."

Play from 0:50[0:50]" Well you I think after playing in game five -- that when you regret well. But while we regret that -- we hope we took advantage of and there will be back bewilderment at are on Miami here and ignore that kind of regroup and go well without great up -- that."

Play from 1:09[1:09]" And make you've had four plus days reflect on that Jets game a tremendous game it was out what's your assessment knowledge about time drug digest it look at an -- you know if you've seen the film. Of your play and your team's overall performance."

Play from 1:22[1:22]" What are we -- you know we've got -- and whopping that we had at Duke but -- that yet. -- view of the about the depth that we definitely have I think it was the point that the order. And -- For a become not fight. I've -- victory at the -- that was I think epic poem building block root -- in the that we and do better when you do. And hope we -- not there's a lot. There are a lot of good and they -- away from."

Play from 1:53[1:53]" What did the throw the the touchdown throw to Randy Moss look like. In in retrospect when you look at on film did you. Could you believe you made that broke completely made that catch were other guys open do you think you might even close to the end zone if you tucked and ran. I just your assessment overall assessment of that plate."

Play from 2:14[2:14]" You know you -- I don't live in the moment I've already India and yet good position on the guy and and -- It -- like are you expect and opera gloves that there and try to put it when it outside world is it. He'd be great government pick Olerud goes expect well you do need it accurate that."

Play from 2:34[2:34]" Do you think about at the end of the day and you go to bed that night if you even couldn't sleep. At any point do you think about the -- you -- which where there weren't many of the did you -- about players like that on the good -- humid."

Play from 2:50[2:50]" it well you know but opportunities I think we have a lot of these. But in the third quarter or I've felt that we are movable. Great and McEnroe. That there used to drive it up well now that it or are there. We're moving the ball well which he'd moved OO in big games like that it out. -- put it where. Player our our other you know pay you know that -- that -- in the you know."

Play from 3:19[3:19]" as that play was getting ready to take place eight seconds left in the game fourth quarter fourth down. It looks like you guys were scrambling to get the right play called and everybody at the line of scrimmage and given on the same page and Mangini called a timeout. Did he do you a favor by calling that timeout with you guys going to catch your breath reassess and call the play the way you want to get a set up."

Play from 3:41[3:41]" You don't want toward the in that situation in everybody's in go pick it up so. I believe it used tried to -- probably -- You'll -- if we're going to about. It and try to that are well. Divide the good player baker but it but they've played great event at. An earlier that it went well regardless."

Play from 4:03[4:03]" at all called them all figured out it made no difference that didn't help you guys -- pitcher Brett and our let's do this now. Garden record river where were called. They are are there any noticeable differences between a rivalry game with the Jets and say oh I don't know. San Francisco and Kansas City and anything you noticed during the context of the game it feels different."

Play from 4:26[4:26]" Particular player in the be completely honest with the current. The inner -- that it -- player on both but a book about it. They're -- movable but that would go to the revelry. And we know that we want to go well well if former though. It it is that way to a little bit of a different feel about that --"

Play from 4:47[4:47]" Is there ever a of sense of revenge Jimmy let's face -- the Miami Dolphins in his beats -- man they. They they you know they they walked up on you pretty good that was one of the most shocking games of scene unfold. At least in recent Patriots history. What did you learn from Britain and why why should -- be different this week."

Play from 5:08[5:08]" What could be different -- out there like oh boy hopefully it's different a visit -- inspectorate about our football you play better we go to every. You know it is they've definitely got a good burst out of it either not well all. And we need to go well. And put together good week of practice a better effort out there on Sunday you know. And if you don't they're very good in American epic -- and 1 of those teams who want to -- in that is playing good football playing good he spent -- we let you -- good out there and be ready for a victory in the and."

Play from 5:41[5:41]" It Mike Vrabel talks with us about this on Friday and I I viewed -- your two cents worth on it. And that is the advantage real or imagined. Other Bill Belichick in this coaching staff provides for the players in terms of preparation. Fourteen the second time UC them. You think the preparations are are little different there's a little more on the table because you have seen the Jets want to -- a second time the Dolphins once and -- will be a second time."

Play from 6:06[6:06]" Well I think it you'd played in the second. You're more with the personnel. -- what you went with her private the year in. The other players that aren't what it was an open week three -- it. Prior -- that now we have. Nine in order Purdue who watch it on the beauty and -- in the paint because well you it would just the corporate so you have more to go law of and -- put that all of the great so well in that situation. In terms of preparation week."

Play from 6:40[6:40]" and you walk us through you breaking in the huddle and come into the line of scrimmage the reason I'm asking this question is is I would be interested in you know when you identified defenses and you know that they are are going to double. On Randy. You know of expression is a team if they want to can take a guy like Randy out of the game at least partially. Based on the amount of coverage in the amount of attention they give to him. They obviously you're seeing that. Beat is that -- portion on the sort of taken out of the game but the -- other places and other people become your primary read almost no matter what. Well you."

Play from 7:14[7:14]" You that there with the coverage that a lot what we're doing the double Arabian. They did not throughout -- in -- but -- the department will be go to get a bar. Ben Watson. Off it's clear credit W what walker gridlock that means that you could you get up there -- great. What do people -- it though it's hard to do that they continued. To Italy double one guy or another -- and not a game one we have. Weapon at -- position."

Play from 7:46[7:46]" If the other -- single covered. What is the chance that you're going to go to Randy if you know he's doubled and indeed this."

Play from 7:53[7:53]" When you -- to different at all written you off well. If available would do it I think. They're they're awkward you don't make plated you've got to give them an opportunity is more likely he will do that."

Play from 8:06[8:06]" How do you avoid. Getting caught up and all this -- in everyone's talking about should I mean you used that you stayed home watched TV went to a movie. You get the feeling that that that's life has changed a little bit for for madcap."

Play from 8:20[8:20]" We I reckon ought to -- that I I don't want or alternately called -- odds watched in. I don't with the radio papers. I don't do."

Play from 8:32[8:32]" That takes after the president isn't that effort that and to not."

Play from 8:35[8:35]" I mean it doesn't doesn't mean you ought to be caught -- suffered through. The speaker who were whether good or bad you know you've -- goat all that now -- of of the Spirit of and you got picked go to Tibet and you get sick of that well and -- Arctic and that that the that it really."

Play from 8:52[8:52]" What about the bad I mean did you I know when things go well people tell you don't read the papers and what was the talk shows but would. Things are going bad isn't it kind of motivation it's almost as you know they ought to cut this guy who years that are calls that are in one. About time they they let him ago. The remember that remember here and any of that whether it was you know on TV radio or read the papers. And use in."

Play from 9:15[9:15]" Figured I figured it was going on because what or being but then again. There -- departed. A lot of people -- have -- on our internal you know you're what a lot of people. Why are big in it and don't really know what he called hope though the lottery built in -- sort of a football they'll vote in the Vietnam revolt of some of the great. And that there would be enough -- the reasons why. Late or you know -- out yet but I'm not all that well so up is bigger it. My -- our view what you're doing -- you'd. Everything everybody else and that's about it."

Play from 9:57[9:57]" And that what did you make winner in your career did you make the conscious decision not to read or to listen. What was given us for that -- advise you that much that might be a good way and how to -- ultimately help you."

Play from 10:10[10:10]" My rookie year. Will do it what I've read an article that would obviously make them. Article about me for whatever reason. And it I just remember how -- like well there's no reason for need to -- mentally or physically or you know at about of them. Really have a factor in your career other than somebody's opinion in the foot or what I believe I mean we know what threaten and everybody else in the I could the so I can guard Jordan rookie year or they'll be."

Play from 10:43[10:43]" It's easy though that no one I -- you weren't the topic of discussion. Everywhere what about on like Boomer Esiason and Jimmy Johnson on TV are doin' it there you know it's you know he's one of the papers -- get a lot of -- isn't. Hasn't gotten a lot -- met the live in that bubble."

Play from 11:01[11:01]" It's great that the market that you have in the bubble news -- that there. Our editor of the he -- the focus on the doubled and."

Play from 11:10[11:10]" And it moves -- role models you know and that way you can turn out very regular at Angel if you are a little bit. Tempted to either pick up a paper or turn on the radio is that after you've had a bad performance for a few -- good performance if you're tempted on one of don't want to be. At a better cook from market it to whoever he ought to do -- Did you -- worry about getting cut in August."

Play from 11:40[11:40]" Our strongly believe it one out on at a a better creep in any regard and the rug hookers but a lot of people would you record ought to -- production through them. -- points on the board. -- happens the but. In other submit communicate that they're pretty you know it. One. -- in the Spirit you -- and such an that happened but when you're limited. -- that beat you in there but he wrote it then. That interception becomes a big deal. Whereas if you play all of it come back up the next series go down here we did you do more than it would get so. You know -- riveted to -- at a soccer in the other all -- back. -- we're at."

Play from 12:28[12:28]" They don't let this -- had but I think it's safe now Matt I'm pretty sure. You're you're in the court you're safe now."

Play from 12:37[12:37]" You -- or is that. The Mets since you don't listen and read as a public service do you actually gets to be a private service few -- tell you that the conversation out there is all very positive in spite of the fact that the team. Loss of the Jets but as it pertains to you individually the conversation is follow the Patriots going to keep Matt Cassel around -- they going to keep him around here for awhile during his free agency Billy -- transition into the franchise him. Everybody's worried about keeping Cassel here in New England."

Play from 13:06[13:06]" I'm very critical of never though and after. What happened to him. You know Matt Murton but right now we've got -- awkward though never think never crossed my you don't think about it. Don't pick about -- out of -- what do you what do you have residual particularly help but earlier he apparently all of you don't think about that."

Play from 13:26[13:26]" I know you it's easy to not pick up the papers you know -- and a lot of people don't do that but when you watch -- TV you do do you consciously avoid those kind of you know pregame post game shows."

Play from 13:38[13:38]" They're very well oh in early -- we watch it -- you know particular to stop Billick. You're going to get anything more out of visit the -- watchman you know you're a couple of them except that it that it somebody's opinion in and right now nobody -- all -- it corrected or."

That you need that for for motivation I mean held Tom Brady never forgot all the quarterback's a good draft and and among the teams that passed on him and that's it. Guys do the you know every and it is always nice -- to keep. Fired."

Play from 14:36[14:36]" I'm motivated about it when it for nine years -- multiple positions and it is -- Lawton Collins and in the last three years you know -- and you put yourself -- motivated -- And a moment of it you know up on. It good or better we've got that. Like what you're on the Florida though. Effective if they do it I'm going to put what they'll do whatever it is minority you."

Play from 15:02[15:02]" Do you check the box scores -- liner steaming got in the games that these these days obviously he backed have a pretty good quarterback in Kurt Warner about. -- you've fallen that."
