Play from 0:00[0:00]" Stephen Gostkowski. "

Play from 0:02[0:02]" And having an element of competition is something night. -- economically. There's."

Play from 0:08[0:08]" You know did you discuss the F control over and even if there was. Somebody here. It would make a difference and others are still people that -- look at that they work out people at times. Some sort of happened at the summit in the next day so there's always someone got to do your job. Others right now next year you'd always got to prove yourself every day. Every game every practice. But this -- physically here not if there's always someone got a forum. Yeah yeah I did I -- married it's very exciting. Those Iguodala isn't got definitely low guys got -- shape and just felt since -- new here clean ladies at the start over it's always nice. -- Us. Fifteenth and long. Well late pass -- all of one game at a loss games in every sport and every situation won championships and you know I emphasize wouldn't compare but. Lost championships. I've been able to get over it move on you know as far as like retire or something like that may be I'd be. Being upset about it but I got a nice shot this year I'm just worried about this year and get better you know -- in his practice and just another. First pre season game that kind of."

Play from 1:27[1:27]" There's always an Oregon I mean it's it's it's some different every day. Sometimes you know. The mid range field goals I have problems sometimes it's a long rain sometime this -- just fans I feel that today. You know it's it's like it's kind of like a golfer with a swing some days -- and some shots because sometimes and I just. -- us why you work on every situation you know yesterday was Wendy is a good data work you know. Sunday's maladies is just it's different every day and you know when you're doing the same thing every time we just gotta work gunners situation. You know it's not much to what I do and and and I just try to be as consistent as I can be every day. -- you know. I have no idea that we just in triumph really great offense we're inside it's funny most of time I think that's. Pretty much sentence not. Now like I can't make number I won't make him assist and then have opportunities -- tickets all but opportunity and we need out they're taken advantage of it and sometimes you don't get -- and -- but. You know when you win games and get the top couple 2030 yarder is an errant pick I would suspect is still so great about yourself and about -- and -- the Timonen and you know kicking a fifty yarder -- but you know kicking a thirty yard -- as much points you know just just a little more exciting. You know if I get the chance I'm open to a capitalize on this here and it's definitely an area of Award but you know you get your most most alert goes. In the mid range though those those looking at some -- You know the highest average and he still go to your -- Lazarus like 37 yards average kicks off. You know you want to work screaming get the bulk of your work and unless we concentrate on them. You know just don't read much into you're still out there and."

Play from 3:14[3:14]" Kick. It into shock."

Play from 3:20[3:20]" You know it's going to work very walk through things whether you're target list would go. At the break up all that practices -- locker like this it's. You know could both say there's this thing so you know you just thought we have to do you do -- do you have do do your job. And I really tend to put on TV you see it but as far as father Matta. W -- western soap opera mentally and."

Play from 3:50[3:50]" It's. He can't avoid it."

Play from 3:55[3:55]" We have a week. Thing as a player. Like he understands inside me and understand the players I don't know."

Play from 4:04[4:04]" That though -- honest there -- no we have spreads does that mean Vince but it it. If it. He had said it only when he's not much. Tough on the compared with the sort of no matter what they do it. Whoever team that -- day in the best interest for the team so you just have to work harder continuing do what you do. That's. This. Willow -- isn't always been you know it's it's good read it doesn't mean it gets hot it gets you know headed home but the same time as a competitor you know that you. You gotta do you have to do stated."

Play from 4:41[4:41]" harder or -- whatever I want you go through a stranger to our pitchers so Federer is still -- grinder. You've -- a -- to expect more you know year after year not just any about facing because you've gracious of you you might be losing -- to you have to go and they continually do anybody right as far as. You know in between right this is NYU --"

Play from 5:06[5:06]" broke. Him victor hobson. Since."

Play from 5:10[5:10]" Come out of the -- You know what I have to do what's. I don't feel them home -- exactly what I need to be right. You know he's going to make charges that are lose there. To some little things. And almost perfection so. And misstatements."

Play from 5:39[5:39]" It these cities yes a lot of."

Play from 5:44[5:44]" If you can. Coming up. I think with any different slam record it's almost like the course record of these things so. I mean news is only so much you can errors expectation for the position when you when you step and Islamic -- got pretty much know. When everybody goes and do you wear and and and take chosen defects. -- and the mimic their coach wooden what's more soon -- Did the wrist. Limiting my mistakes and him just want to make sure our defenders are completely on north can be. Didn't didn't. It's. A lot of guys are. Not destroy the coming with Okajima of course you do things good. American. So far so good. There was. Enough -- so many different people had to go through different things corners -- the -- forcing me. Of them pretty much going to do. And again it's. So very early. All these two months ago surprises me anymore really I've been around for a little while -- pretty Messina left. I don't know I've just come out on the work each and every big and when everything is that it's. And therefore."

Play from 7:19[7:19]" Tedy Bruschi. I don't feel it. Yeah yeah that's about normal you know you got you got the aches and pains you spend your time in the ice tub and you try to get your legs back as quickly as possible and they just just keep pushing through you know the toughest toughest month of the job the pre season games training camp and -- you have to do. Two days anyway. Yeah we got -- in the day head coach got -- voted in the walk through and we've been working hard out here I mean -- that we we've had a lot of full padded practice we've been we've been working pretty hard so and we had a walk through today and then it will be back -- the afternoon. -- Good good at times and other times -- to learn things I mean he's never done it before he's never done it before so. He's learned in I think you it is different for him taken on guard sometimes at that type of level I mean he's used a second second level sort of situations where he has little bit more space but. No surprisingly he's he's he's accepted it all -- anything he's done a good job to do in the best to care about there's still with the first group working hard and and I think. It's different for me seeing him in there -- such notorious Tony number in there and smaller body -- you know he's getting the job. It. Discovered you know I think the biggest thing is this is this is attitude he's willing to learn is we're -- learning he's asking questions and he's. And you know you can you can see the ability he has done here he's he's running in hidden in Andy's physical at times. I think what I'm most impressed about his attitude it is his willingness to -- acceptances."

Play from 9:06[9:06]" It was almost like that and Jerry can present -- that would increase the secondary and linebackers are important thing. Stickers on. In the you at all."

Play from 9:18[9:18]" Well little bit I mean I can't I can do I can turn around in the middle of the play and tell them what to do I mean that they're at their area back there are so. No they're going to have to get the job done themselves you know and then then I think they have been so far I'm and we haven't played any games yet but. I think the learning to learning curve is this something that they've they've accepted in those difficult than it was difficult but. -- will hide Wheatley -- from Brandon Meriweather is. Taking -- more vocal vocal role this year you can see you can hear him communicate now after I think he's done a great job. It -- for him personally."

Play from 9:58[9:58]" I think just that the physical aspect of -- from me for being a being inside linebacker Mina. I mean getting back in the running game in and and put your face back there but you faced and in the middle Logan Mankins and -- handsome and some of the offensive -- that we have yet to get them. You'll get used to hit people again I think that's that that's in the front seven I think that's the best that. The biggest thing we have to get used to -- your body has that that that. That's soreness after the first and second day where you realize you know. You but it's our national what do you do enemy you know within you know after the after the practices you know 456. It sort of remembers. And you hope your body remembers to the point where you just get back in football shape in the start at each other again and again. Last. And that's good that's good I think. Training camp intensity intensity is always -- as always -- especially new head coach puts you full pads because. I think it would realize that they get myself that's still their jobs to win their jobs to be captured out there and I think. Everyone from from starter only practice squad player last year -- realize."
