Tedy Bruschi, LB

The Dele -- show on the patriots Monday you know -- some -- Monday we talk with our guys -- Richard Seymour. We talk -- Rodney Harrison when he felt the Artrell Hawkins we talked this may. Tedy Bruschi he joins -- hi dawn today. Doing great your buddy Dale's not here to get used at about the Miami Dolphins that correct them on oh about the dot do you John Wallace as well. -- Teddy just uninteresting yesterday you said this reading your your post game quotes. If that this game. This went over the chargers reaffirms everything I believe about -- went to collaborate that quote what do you mean -- that.

I just it's really believe in -- locker room we need to have a -- winner. What you guys that are -- working don't really care about individual accolades and it would come down to a any cities Sunday that we're gonna put out our best effort that whole world -- Or in hostile environment like San Diego put -- work in during the week. You know just focused on -- football game you know -- it was all about.

I know watching the game at one point 14 to three in the first half still plenty of time into one and one at 13 watching yet though. Like the game was slipping away at some point you guys are always on the edge did you feel that way about what -- approach as you played that game Dow by eight points in the fourth quarter.

That's what if that is it decently and we knew we had to come up with -- I think we have some big preannounce -- lately gained Roosevelt -- made huge play -- Took exception to -- which is amazing we got the offense -- got the ball back for offensive. Critical situation that's completely completely -- better defensively was not with the way you know it's it's still very much of a football game. Still it was the fourth quarter of the it was a lot of football played. And that's the attitude of talking about also believe that I haven't seen that we have a play. There's no we will believe it would backing -- way.

Teddy taking all that into account we -- talking about this right before the top of the hour break how satisfying where does this rank -- it's far satisfaction in the wing facing an opponent that was. Unbeaten at home coming back from 14 to 32113 down on their home field and what does this rank other -- the Super Bowl wins for satisfaction for you guys.

We I've been around here awhile there's been a lot of huge history that we haven't. I would say that you just this past rank up there and we have committed to a place where. It was it was the best team in the NFL with double digits -- players in -- these people had everything go. And normally -- will do it. If the guys before we went out we always have the attitude on the road especially especially -- this game in this locker room so we've -- now we see. Negated and we took the attitude it was this part right up there it's making more satisfying victories.

It also seemed as the game went on San Diego made a lot of silly mistakes for instance personal foul penalty after extra points. They had -- after strips act of Tom Brady. I mean it it is that with the experience plays in the fact that you guys have been to so many of these games before a lot of people playing for San Diego have not.

I think so I think -- I think we've we've gained that experience throughout this here actually because if you if you recall Tennessee gains -- last -- testing we have -- this is we've made some states. We we act of personal he's we learn from vote. So bring in those experiences this year I didn't I think with the it's the previous year's -- in this game that that every every play every. Every situation in the game you know have -- now.

Teddy -- want to ask you about looking Tomlinson on the field and off I'll start with on the field I'm sure you guys most of the time -- see if that. -- well over a hundred yards -- the good about yourself yesterday I'm guessing that you feel all right about Danny Thompson long run of the day 15. Even though we -- or five yards a carry it seemed like controlled. What's your analysis of how you guys played the game yesterday.

I thought we put it well on the -- of player that. It's going to be tough we want to force him back back into the middle where big guys aren't I'm backers. Decent tackled since before it -- and we couldn't get too many guys who have been in this gap is. He gap it's often he would have success with so when he found out we cannot -- guys. It's great player but -- look at that the final stat sheet after the game you how many yards. God sections touched down that this matter. -- you get those big screen passes and he was scored two touchdown what the school. It was fortunately at one point we battled back with the scored the fourth quarter. Now about what was still so that's what it was in this situation was where. These synthetic coming at certain times yes three you know if the ball back office staff we will we approach.

Now want to ask you about his his performance after the game he refused to shake hands and he explained himself later by saying. -- you guys have no class and perhaps the start with your head coach how do you respond to that

very very surprised those comments I think she's more upset about -- true. So as to his frustration. I think she was you know the fact that some you do. Many times where I remember all the way back my rookie year -- Arctic -- it's such. Margaret has spiked the ball this year you know that jets our field. No they need -- in November I think it would look at that. -- class. But if those teams wouldn't do those things about it is being something that -- disrespect for it's something that I just remember. Give -- patience with him about that. I think what really focus on why why he had -- he had the success they have a role as the and then went

I was curious to know how you guys felt about. All the talk San Diego all the words that San Diego have for you guys leading up to the games Shawn -- and specifically without bulletin board material leading up to the game feed us.

Well -- want to continue to talk about class. With what's with all the talk during the week you know we don't we don't do that around. We -- system -- we give these rumors were part practiced in focus oh we do the job on Sunday. They were doing a lot of their jobs with it was that we -- how about that. And so we will we preferred to keep our nose to the -- we'll keep our head down to a work preparations are that we worked on his victory.

You know your nose to grindstone. Came back from yeah it'll probably got back this morning yet traveled outlets I would say you're -- It helped it looked strong but it's -- arguably it's like I you'll wake up one dollar and always away -- what your energy

right now little mystery that is -- cross country flight that in five you know. It's Monday the game is still little ways away from the game of the travel you know -- we gave them. Our position that -- finest that we separation this week bill.

Well speaking of which you guys have earned yourself another game and wouldn't you know it it's against the Indianapolis Colts you guys always seemed -- situations like this they beat you here during the regular season. Talk about that game a little bit.

Yeah they I think this -- what 20 it was making rates rose and captain. -- in Foxborough in which is in. Usually when when it goes from -- the team's struggles eight and so if you take this post season but still they we've got chills me that there are better. Federal -- in office in Washington. I think it's going to be a game where all three -- you -- assistance -- these. -- vice -- It's about which he shall place overall much better team. It would have been. Previous week.

How would you compare Joseph besides you can change society doesn't put two -- James and they only -- once that if any differences to prodigy.

You know I would. I don't want to say that there are similar but -- that they're both very very strong image it was a it was a strong were very -- its size -- just but still -- mystery. These that that runs hard and have to bring down I think that -- picked up I think you. Through the course of years he has shown that he can have a vote if we now I think that we it's up protections mean. Terms of the it would its edgy and so -- who have special -- relationship. I think these which --

Teddy also think you guys have an incredible amount to success in domes and on artificial turf I think. I don't think you've never lost that don't game with Tom Brady if you quarterback why do you think you guys do still well not only indoors but on artificial surface.

Yes you know I don't know I don't know because it's it's something we don't pay too much attention to -- little. Statistics about playing -- when I feel fearful for his playing on grass is really consistent we feel don't need it. It's about that we play but we we played on that particular date maybe just didn't we didn't play well -- bitter -- but he's still focused on what performance we have that's for formerly.

Well then let me ask you this we talked about -- experiencing games helping you yesterday I do you think you're experiencing AFC championship games -- think this Francis is ever lost an AFC championship -- how will that translate this weekend going to the RCA --

Riot -- experiences. This system where people have talked about it last week where if you rivers to have you. San Diego shot playoff record something that you took to products and lastly but not this. Playoff veteran -- so he's been huge gains before he was last year's so they've got. And much it's we these. And experience.

Jacket mcmullen wrote an article last week that he talking about the the ten what technically 11 guys who have been here all three Super Bowl championships in one of those guys. Is Troy brown I mean you've been a teammate at this could have prolonged time of this wondering what do you think of him in general and specifically that play yesterday that really say it again

that he is. In the 62 to to me you expected more. Plays the nation for us this year even. They easy overhead it was the biggest play of the -- went yesterday for situation of football we talked about true split second -- from awful that it decent that I situation. People all of this all and it came within their hands but it was not wanting to be -- credible -- such as he has that it would have to have the ability through this stripped of all strong four.

you talking about one of the older players on the team let's talk about one of the younger players and teams Steven guess Belsky who made. Not only two field goals during the game and look confident doing it but. He really might have earned his stripes around these parts for nailing the game winning field goal is there any doubt in your mind heading into the game that he could handle the pressure like that.

What kind of Mantilla -- I don't.

Don't go rip -- though is still buy this book by that is this thing to do without and so well that's class. -- it.

And -- appropriate note that. You know he should pay attention to the program -- asked few questions last week probably shouldn't ask you that same question in the following weeks felt I had certainly.

I could -- on the same answer verbatim but I did one.

I appreciate NIC that the typical cliche let me ask -- question about -- argument in Adam Vinatieri -- see him in a very large game with a be any phone calls me before hand. Adam how are -- it's not don't think about it that kind of thing

you know it's. I think that we've we we we talked after the game last week last week -- the last -- Q hearts from the case that would put about ten I think -- and wouldn't do hard time for that have different ship we came together.

Wrong again Adam what are. We got we got left to go on that's what -- final question I'm wondering when you talked about criticism of the scout ski. One of view it expanded to two the receivers and we talked a lot about the receivers this year in the lot of Deion Branch do you think it even as a group when a group has criticized what is the receivers linebackers that you guys are getting old that's something. That that could be taken personally and used as a positive.

I think he -- from -- I think. He stood discuss a full percentage can't worry about your opinion person certain publications whatever it is that echo. That -- go to -- No and yet when he when he gave me who came in players say is do certain things committed so you move on place. So we've been it was a this year receiving. -- at a -- Forester are actually -- my backers to look at each two he's got that you know. It's nice to see the they've had over the that is criticism that the part of our profession and you have to deal with it and it's how do you know you can you can really -- here wouldn't I think we've had an event here being Austin. Egypt's religious spoke to -- two continue its parent and do things that opens.

But it was a nerve racking game the watched the -- has pulled it out and moving on Indianapolis -- a year and we'll talk to you next week.
