As as we have back on patriots Monday Harrison has already taken shots at holly so it's a good normal month patriots Monday. Rodney Harrison joints at the table good afternoon mr. Harrison afternoon always good to see you. -- Was certain citizens -- He's he's sport is Cleveland Browns scholars here today. The brown and orange -- and -- mention decent -- one it's time to get them out I guess that -- shut up to Romeo Romeo and Willie. There have followed those guys fourteen and -- after the decision here yesterday overall I'd think -- team performed defensively because it looked like. The jets weren't going to get too many chances to score -- you guys yesterday.
Was pretty much a roller -- out there offensively defensively for us for the simple fact that. I mean Iran option we saw three different quarterbacks a mall to to a formations. A lot of gadget plays -- for us. Religious keep my composure not really get rattled by that duel we do best and that's you know tackle that's making adjustments on the fly and we did pretty good job that overall we held them to three points they scored a touchdown on special teams what having defense that we would play well.
I think when you watch the jets on TV -- that and you say. Keeping intercepted Chad Pennington every every ball looks like it's going to be intercepted and then on one player that's argue. This that I can do that you rate jester has if you thought you an interception was at Georgia and reacting to your doctor or else frustrated because.
I'm lined up a little bit outside and I didn't think he was actually go to the tide in and I hesitated a little bit. And that little one bit of hesitation really just called me not to get the interception and I was pretty frustrated but I think overall I mean we got our hands on some balls Ellis Hobbs played great game. Junior fail that though he was all over the place as well as -- with Thomas so. Defensively is not just one guy you know each week it's one or two guys we stepping up and rested the -- play consistent. You know -- if this were baseball Chad Pennington would be that pitcher who throws by 8586 but just locates. He's always say that fast that I -- not even that -- But he knuckle ball what is it just that he's just a technician he didn't he knows he's smart -- he's able to be successful and and not really. I don't know its arms -- we're not really throw the ball that other quarterbacks -- but it that. Well maybe is his arms and that's. I mean the guy and he has control pretty much of that all that they have a lot of skill and talent to guys. You know their offensive side bar it's just. You know for one reason via but he really haven't been able to put all together but overall I'm in have a lot of talent offensively that's one of the most talented groups that we face. This year will face so. You know he's really good at that being condone that Susan and I don't know if it's. Because you know previous injuries anything like that that's man in the in my concerned by you know we held him. That he maybe threw 486 yards well I'm we will take that any day that's victory for us so. He completed some passes but dating him --
probably the best view in the house of the touchdown that was challenged in ultimately called back you were right there at the back at the end zone with a did you think the challenge would be upheld and you'd call it that one back when you saw live gals actually you know -- going to. Belichick actually the flag for the simple fact that I saw -- actually kind of reminded Jabar Gaffney. -- program Baltimore so houses hoping for the best -- that situation and I mean he clearly all they called a correct call. But see you bring a good point in one's. If you bring up a good point I was regular rail about this. It reminded you Gaffney what's different between him yesterday gap between gap is a touchdown that -- officials Mark column there's Soviet. Yet happen. It appears when you when you tell ballots -- April the flag often as he listened because sometimes you see replays will be Watson home. And it player of the coach and you can and I have no chance that he does he really. Where you have to be smart about you have to understand is as the players you can't run until the -- something just based -- and you eagle effort. The simple fact that you got beat on the play or someone caught up as -- It's all in the best interest of the team. And it is legitimate -- I think he'll look at the person and he'll probably look at the replay in the in decide if you know if that player has that that type of credibility to the replied. What are your guys had a pretty good game yesterday Eugene Wilson at the interception run back for the touchdown of the fumble recovery yet to be very happy for him yesterday very happy for Eugene he's been -- me back here for so many years. Been very frustrating for them. Affected the you know few injuries as seasons the guys. You know just that naturally talented guy and -- it would knock you off in to a multitude of things. And just the back and be it would make a few plays and helps boost his confidence -- you know -- that defense did a sign up into the game. He's smallest guy on the D -- Maggette hit rock now I'm the bees when I was looking oh we always felt. While just a great job Asante Samuel. You know -- guy makes plays all over the place if -- and I intercept in the past he's he's in someone at the knees bring them down -- him in the face and that's what you want from the people's backs what does it mean to you before you that the team is fourteen you know the -- you know but now -- points. Home field throughout the play. Right now -- doesn't mean anything with a lot of work to do improvements defensively we need to work or on the rated only continuing practice hard our tackling -- that that's an issue so. Just mean that we ones you know fourteen individual games and I mean really has nothing to do what we're trying to do next weekend the week there after man and you know we just look at the film tomorrow and see where we need to improve and get better the first brad Smith. Option play that pitch that that they broke for -- run. Did it surprise you guys because after that they didn't really duly noted in surprises on the something that we work on we were definitely prepared for loses. We missed the tackle that's that we have been proved that we missed tackle -- opportunity relate to bring him down 433 yard loss and you know he broke and he was able to do it but that's trickery wouldn't last I mean you know maybe college but this is the professional level and you know you can't we can't option hello we've we -- really one word about it through many are already what are. -- asked that liking it liking to him I -- who got to be as strong and smart on this level to actually come on think you can run option him in my painful Phil Simms said that at one point during the telecast these that there's a reason why you don't see a team in the NFL. Try to run an offense like this I mean it just doesn't work. Yeah you quarterback probably wouldn't last long in the league and you have to be passed the ball and have you know good mix of run past and you know sometimes he does pass balls than he does run it depends on with the situation. -- tough -- I mean this guy as there are some tackles on brad Smith yesterday just trying to bring him now. -- a pretty deceptive but I mean he's very quick guys you know -- speak in as well as he has great open fields be I mean he was I -- he broke on top records in college so obviously he knows about Ron I think. Few times we hear them we hit him pretty good and pretty much of that now.
Miami Dolphins come to town this weekend we're talking earlier I think Richard I believe it was Richard we were talking to knock in about. You know that the good players that the dolphins have. New role -- bats but obviously it Richard you know face any of those guys tell me some guys on the offensive side of the ball you're going to be concerned about this week. Because I think you'll have a hard time coming up with an ad in the -- we gotta like that art. I rest my case that is -- the obvious in doing this victory. X yes or air -- I -- nobody enjoyed -- victory yeah. I think tomorrow we watched the game film line I can say Marty Booker -- the straight days or ten -- junior. Do you just do that and analyzed you Michael day go out. We'll get some knowledge of runs a range of incumbent quarterback -- I love some of those guys on the instantly and Richard Wright -- occupied act on the team plane but you payments union Jason Taylor I mean there they had some great players on that side -- the ball.
Well I mean if you told me at the begin as this year that they would have gone you know one in. Thirteen whatever record is I never would have believed that -- they have so many talented guys. And you know especially. Defensively not take anything away from dolphins I mean they're probably pretty young on often side of the ball but yet you know we lost Ronnie brown and a couple of the guys so you know. We'll deal with that tomorrow right now I'm just kind of rests in trying to enjoy myself and you know just being irritated by you sorry only one more question for me. I was actually rooting for them yesterday the dolphins if you want to see them go I -- honestly you want to see -- go I think care manager who doesn't bother me -- have been in this situation before. When in San Diego and we were like oh and whatever and eventually we beat Kansas City and them until you we party on night. It was like the Super Bowl so I know exactly what they what they felt like when -- that football game.
It was huge we gotta get to -- you've got stuff to do -- nice to see and Rodney Harrison joining us good to see again rightly. Happy holidays --
