Will we just we believe they're you know christmas time as a this shared gears everything but really every day is christmas. -- left -- healthy we have a -- quiet as steps consider like everyday is christmas so that approach each markets.
Answers that well look at for the series. I you -- not I would want to had to be something really paid figured you'd jacked up to get a week to give him that they want to we have failed enough for them yeah -- ditzy young.
ready get out bought two -- systems. Well you hit the -- themselves yeah I want my -- one must Saarloos or so.
So like when you set up that we at home and Brandon Meriweather comes over -- to stop them like the guy in the commercial to Whitman at the television. Have seen veteran -- where Christian his four.
Well he's period before another law which. Do everything you know a lot.
I am getting yeah I am in your generation erratic with the get a lot of calls today about maybe it's just to spoil patriots and you guys -- fifteen you know you know he hadn't in doing the historic week we could end -- as the only team every six you know and you get the most important thing the playoffs and the Super Bowl possibility coming up after that we get a lot of calls today. Complaining I guess is the right way to put it about the second half. And the performance yesterday -- you guys upset with the way the second half when yesterday.
Every obviously we didn't come out with the same intensity of focus that we came out with in the first after. Andrew -- our best to support that you lost but at a time I mean you know we have to understand that. You know it's a continual process that we have to continue to get better we have to continue to stay focused and do things that we need to do it. And and just continue to build on what we did the first -- that we have a lot out of being that we can look at from the game as well as -- a lot of rules or improvement and that's what we're going to look at but. IBM (WSJ) note fans disappointed but don't want mortars went to us because we're was put in the work. And now or topics but our butts in and you know put our Basel a -- so obvious -- that were supported about -- we will be better.
one of the aspects of the game that it has not it was not disappointing at all yesterday and has -- been disappointed the last three weeks now is. It's been -- red zone defense and we had talked to a little bit about this after the game but. What has been you know is and that's something bill has really stressed all -- he's talked about -- with us a lot -- he really been drawing -- guys because the the contrast from early in the season so the last three games has been remarkable.
Yeah I mean it's pretty obvious on the way he's been around stress in the upon those books is something that we we weren't we're really proud of on me we restart give up on -- they were 31 and 32 ranked. Result seamen the -- saw me we had. No other choice -- to -- pattern the last few weeks we've actually -- a few weeks together -- we played. Pretty good reds on Egypt which ultimate goal line situations just America has ordered job. I understand the importance of stop and stop another achievement and understanding that Estrada. You don't create some ball less points or four opponent and an -- out of got a great job making plays and just carry it out there are.
Rodney Harrison did before christmas patriots Monday in for dale and -- it's Paul Perillo and butch Stearns. Com live here at Gillette stadium Rodney when asked about Richard Seymour week by week we're seeing number 93 visibly. Creep into more ways we saw yesterday just over power a guard like we've seen so many times in the past. Is it just that he's healthy and he's the Richard Seymour -- now.
Lee got 27 your vote you got recollect you poll washed up -- in regards Kmart you know. -- And the best goalie soul I mean. You can't go out there on the as the level you'll format if you're not healthy obviously they'll be so better he's in their -- so Bell's products -- be my -- brought you.
This -- to -- is a surprise -- to other teams 'cause yesterday for example when he had that sack he was in a situation -- to me. In years past or when he you know before this injury he'd be double team and they put him in a one on one situation against the back up guy and he just over. Howard that got you think teams. Are are making the mistake of looking at Richard and saying you know either he's not the same player he's not healthy or whatever and that's it was.
My best sum up boss as I don't care probably scare some adult care I'm not looking into that I look at how the local for what we can do to make this -- among. I don't care what another team looks at R got their -- to a single remote would have back and got so -- that'd be our manners but it really doesn't matter.
I don't may I ask you about your your partner at safety James Sanders really seems to be coming on. Showing every week Dan Daly missed last week against the jets but he came back. Really physical really looks like he's. Very comfortable back there playing alongside you have you. Noticed a progression and has played.
Yeah urgency to every week intelligent James -- raises level Kmart so muscle like gold. To the -- there's not next level there's a lot of state he's there and I was so that he and it absolute must that you know developers old mayor. Beat you to ball and outplayed because each and every week April trial so well play -- So it's so look you know competition that we have a -- other between us. But you know james' normal kids really you learn and he you'd you'd want to -- we ask questions when he works his butt off social surprised that they didn't have a it's not unity ever amount of arms so pleased with. What he's door -- on the side of form he deserves.
About Brandon Meriweather -- we've seen a lot more him in the last couple weeks and you know as a first round pick a lot of attention was focused on him but he seems much more comfortable. Out there same type of thing with him is his progression.
Just total must -- you know army you know he needs to really work over his parents could not -- worse as the bidding for back I have ever seen in the because three interceptions right now and and but you know we know that predicates slaves Brandon you know he's he's had up and down year but. You know I just told him the route relax and act like you that the universe Miami and and cooperate display called little already beat they'd already war -- to -- you play to a within this game but the spirits and he's still agency like he's he's relax and he's just -- president and it will be a tremendous player obviously you very you have all the talent in the world.
to ask questions -- an electrical enjoyed -- before christmas one mine is how do you look at this week and this game it's the next game on your schedule yet. You guys now on this week have a chance to make history and to go six you know by winning. This week but you also have a bye week coming up after that that you know of so really there's a lot at stake this week this weekend isn't there.
