Not didn't want to enjoy and yeah he's -- you know it is it's done that got here so soon we start off season workout on Monday and not. We're really excited and collect and send the opposite of what the result there's not really really fired up about the way that we're playing them excited -- what they can choose your employer.
Let me ask you this -- you know this first and play in the same division as these guys the New York Giants. We don't see this coming here it in New England. What did the name of the Super Bowl. What's your analysis of what happened because we all say all the up at the line was overwhelmed by Umenyiora and over overwhelmed by Strahan and Justin -- urgency.

You know prove them -- you know I don't know what kind of guys here it would you know I don't let all -- areas and you target everybody can't be nice to meet you -- in my book.
Did you talk about some of the differences between -- A Bill Parcells that type of coach had not -- specifically that the coach in the title coach you have right now who by all accounts the pretty laid back out again Wade Phillips.
you -- different go to battle very people who are very effective you know also stat head -- go to work more hard -- it felt a little more late tackle but you know. The thing between bulk of his regular work done on the field the other called the booklet just and you know you can see. Where you know old style work you know we're both -- went particularly complaint I think we're talking about an unbelievable job -- Parcells -- is that he's been great coach in. You know he helped me you know you instrumental in my her recurrent or.
And you've been front center with with via growth and development Tony Romo where is he grown the most from from when he took the starter -- job but a year and a half ago from Drew Bledsoe.
I think he's just matured a -- you know he's you know he's been a lot of big games and I think that you know this is -- and I think he's really gonna break so I. You know less seriously were really really good and I think he's seen -- seen a lot of things in this that don't doubtless in almost thirty year out of the happier -- options starting. If this is different because I think you know looking that much is written here we gotta do it you know we we had a great creek -- marks here and we just didn't finish. This is the year get --
Well -- told our audience to play. Football BC everybody remembers your numbers -- even keeping up that the program a guy who's who could go on the top five could possibly go number one overall Matt Ryan.

Particularly good quarterback Mark you know we understand the game then you've got a great arm and -- is. You can the so called Matt Hasselbeck -- you know resist. He's going to be re going to convert you know oh really really well and I think everybody has yet since it up on him in the first.
