DMZ dot com muscle -- theatrical ESPN lose I'm watching the video on NFL network courtesy of DMZ it's everywhere Tom Brady limping into it -- department carried flowers and a duffel bag. And the bottom line is -- okay that's that we gotta play the -- game like everybody else that's how the industry works ball tight things hype hype like. Well what the -- things that. Do with the game and this dusty doesn't play -- like the big deal magic castle understand it's even 1% he has played because this okay."

Play from 6:28[6:28]" Now he's going to play but does he have had injuries limited what -- you get hit the first by like LT it has to -- I wasn't himself we all thought I thought he was it looked like he was it to me.

When -- when you know well in the fourth quarter heavily in the fourth quarter yet okay let them and explain. The exceptions because okay before right. So I don't know exactly how effective -- it was limping after the game everybody is at the podium when he left the podium -- at a questionable game now is in a -- so there's you know impact is coming together wouldn't before turned ankle right it would be for any could be all the does as a -- to enhance the recovery Brady -- the weight -- completely probably but it can be -- anything it the idea so you don't move it and make it any worse that it gives -- a chance to be totally deal and he. Or eight people's. I would imagine that. You know an area probably had a little ankle and hasn't yet. But on the phone right now today what's that oh. But -- providing our today."

Play from 8:00[8:00]" 82 on the phone John okay extra dry early thirties doubtless it which what that I. Nothing I didn't get anything yours you're right what is your I don't know."

Play from 8:16[8:16]" Okay -- on the a lot. What's up."

Play from 8:26[8:26]" I don't want question how do we. Sign Asante Samuel and Randy -- for next year."

Play from 8:34[8:34]" Okay that's a good question. I'd pay a lot of money prize of all you've got to remember that the salary caps going to go up probably significantly yes that's going to all of that tickets go up to one Eckstein right. Second of all right now yeah right now they've got Samuel under the cap at. What eight million because of these under the franchise tag if they can fit that. They can certainly give him a new contract it fit him next year. The question is how much more will Ravi -- one well that ended two very different kinds of -- to fret that you right pitchers. With Samuel you era and you'd trying to decide whether or not you can invest a long term big money deal with -- I think it has the potential to be big money I'm not sure how long term it's going to be. So you might have to have a bigger cap number from off that you will annual because the way depending on how you spread it out in. Structure that you could actually get something lower than that eight million that -- talked about with Samuel so. It's possible the question is to do the patriots want to invest longterm Samuel you I think we all kind of think that they they should."

Play from 9:41[9:41]" Wants to hear any little bit the lost originally a little bit in the last in the last month we and plus awaited. At -- worry about we look how we act you know when they lose them -- they want every game is like the perfect he's an average of the -- I still.

At all he's been fine but a perfect -- but I think guys like active -- awfully quick. It -- all the I minute if they wanted to a little patch does he he worries me plus what is he going."

Play from 10:18[10:18]" Four I mean. I mean they go nineteen to know he had a great year he broke the records. What is the carrot dangling in front of him to keep him motivated mature for bogey it's all right and they outbreak I don't see that -- and the -- on that we would have ms. I think Tom -- he was perfect the perfect patriot this year. But does he now okay I did that I you know I educated myself my ego in. I tip what do I played the team role not in my money how much money is is he -- and I don't know maybe he doesn't care about that at all maybe he just want. They with Brady and keep putting up these ridiculous numbers -- if that's the case in great. They can get comfort -- money and I haven't sport outlet. I gotta think he's going to want more and that's why our little. Make believe scenario can go to Indianapolis would make sense does that he can prove it to me. I can take any offense and take it from good or great to -- ridiculous historic."

Play from 13:52[13:52]" Yeah money's not an issue you can do any deal you want -- on him money but the question is. You you said there needs to be what was the word -- you parameters or whatever it. There might be another team has thirty waiting and question as to the patriot they will they put a value that has. That amount of money on him -- we all think that we don't know that he's going to get. But to the page you say you know that is going to get -- that mean that we think he's worth it -- able to and I."

Play from 15:17[15:17]" Probably feel that you're extremely harsh in Arkansas."

Play from 15:19[15:19]" But I I understand that but why assuming that they're going to offer so I'm not I'm not sure that I don't really know what value they place on him. I know last year it was a free agent coming up a great year. In the I didn't really off from. Anywhere near that kind of money."

Play from 15:34[15:34]" A lot going on at Connecticut -- 108 million and technically -- He says my engineer and it likely to be added when I don't I don't think it is that he I'd I'd I'd.

Right the only at every at seven -- pick in the."

Play from 16:06[16:06]" At the the patriots it mean I think that's what they do as well as anybody identify the value of their own players and I. Look I think the guy should be back I think he's earned it. But I don't know with the patriot and I gonna be back in the corner I hope they don't they I don't put gay and Hobbs they'll go. I'll put Dave -- I'll put Daphne I mean we thought last year they didn't get back it would Deion Branch they haven't been back it would lawyer -- They will -- that to a corner they're going to make the decision they think is best not that they quote unquote and that the matter what the it would be the right move. -- I got a call it a lot when you really are -- make you very in my."

Play from 17:25[17:25]" Photograph now come out and I don't think I don't think it's a serious injury at all but he wouldn't be out at least a little bit worried that he didn't play well this week and now we blew it and I'd always got time to heal the would be helpful you'll at least that game off slowly. And it could do what awaited giants -- that they get up and kinda run the ball control if they get down 1014 doubt that they could night. The patriots -- an island there's no worries at all about me."

Play from 17:54[17:54]" Not not for a quarter ankle now we have something that we can question -- point to -- but I don't think it'll be the issue I mean maybe I'm wrong in and I don't know how the injury effect and I think you can play -- Europe again and part of a trouble with friendly -- was part of it I think what -- whether. And giggle but gotta get a crack that Quentin Jammer played an excellent game and I think -- The braves not great in the well whether -- like he used but he plays in New England. But he's had a lot of games in the wind and cold weather that evidently he's one they'd write write write -- he can get by but he's not at his best I think I think people think of the 2004 championship game played in very cold conditions in Pittsburgh was unbelievable like Brett won 35 rating. The exception and dad went to the excitement for every one of by the way does except for every finding the guy who'd rather play four degrees and a point five mile an hour wind and that guy doesn't we were we would that I can imagine they played.
