Joining us live on the phone line right now -- Patriots fullback. Heath evans' salaries what's up. Well not quite tell you gotta do and that. Don't aren't -- not bad at all and they you know the running game certainly came to life what you think yet you guys read so effectively this past weekend.

Well you know what we actually get a stick with the running game for a lot another San Diego game we got ourselves a hole pretty quickly and you know when that happens most -- got to take the assault to the air so -- you know we we can now about where it would get some good runs on the ground. Go early and now we're able to stick -- and you know those our big guys up front did a great job force someone -- not.

You know this team -- acumen and -- defects but sync yeah and have a great defense -- what. What do they do differently to shut guys down Ramirez you've been running and passed against them -- with a lot of emotion this week. What was the difference between the way you played in that game as far as blocking and I get down -- still got down that much jet down might. Fourteen points in the 11 -- go to that they would have been seven number seven. -- they do anything different or you guys just go -- or emotional level that game.

You know what I hate to talk -- all -- I think the week of practice was great it was could show up which obviously the perspective that there's always been ever that great week of practice but. He's got no love I'd do that doesn't always happen. There was something different about last week practiced I don't know -- the fact that we gotten bear stumbled on not Sunday night football league before. Or that was just. You know kind of the perfect storm that that -- Denver on Monday night so you know team win that we lower on -- and out glad to see that the running game vehicle.

The only thing we want to give a -- in. But since the sudden different about the way you coming field it seemed to me nicely a couple of just -- another -- it would seem at the door shut. On the briefing and always got come back. The Moss Selig is more to the game those -- with a counselor. During the breaks in to seem like shut the door this is what we got -- not come back we can't compare anything that happens on the field the Brady era. And and more focused on the future I don't know if that -- how practice went what coach said -- The data having to what that means finally just look affords that'll come backers who was the best play of football obviously it's going to be dramatic.

Well you have -- obviously everyone has looked country that that knows anything about yet -- knows there's there's no replacing Tommy Brady but. -- at the end of the day you know -- team has been trotted to grow until together ever since you know that that week one win against Kansas City when we lost comic and duck. Note that in my ups and downs and you know well the players' take on exposure in the passing game it's it's definitely won the the couple aspects of this game football and not. You know week to week hopefully continue to see improvements and you know I think emotional. Output of this team was something that we can't focused on you know locker look look how far will play this game the way it goes the plate and not. You know I think the practice in the emotional effort made different.

He -- know when you're Simon is the block and individual that your assignment that's your play that's what you're supposed to do. -- but do you find that there's any. Difference in the way you do it in that you have different running backs in the two back set that are coming behind you you've gone through what five running backs already this season.

You know it's funny you know -- is that everything in the running game -- with the off of the body to -- the handoff. From the quarterback that -- You know there there's definitely backed it up more comparable with obviously that much is lost and I've been together and they've been I've been together and Kevin there's definitely more familiarity with they know what I don't think I know what they're thinking and out war kind of luck. Going to conduct call that had no luck Benjarvis -- certain this week in the did a great job and obviously my familiar with them and and he would -- will only get better but. But -- small differences you know Sammy most WC -- short yardage stuff and he's about a yard and a half behind me or work if they hit -- and we know we're looking forward. We talked about it and so well most of those aspects will continue to grow with with a young guy even with LaMont we get him back Coke. Small differences but my goal is really just trying to give never in doubt in a great yardage when I can't.

We Benjarvis. Green -- I'd use of video at block. Coach could at halftime I I don't put you over the receive -- run and I had 69 only a genius Jesus does yeah that's in the back home at some -- It is a scary looks like he's got good speed and strength is a free agent -- it in. Comes out plays on the game.

You know that the couple things about -- have let it mean to interrupt you but. Yeah. You know but it that you stick out about me is obviously -- little SEC but it'd Auburn. You know the guy -- all missed two years you know thousand yard back to back seasons I think he averaged over five yards a carry both those years. But the -- marked. He gets in -- you know they want a quiet guy but it got that even from day one really seemed to conduct. Really get a grasp on what -- trying to accomplish in the ins and outs of the offensive and obviously there have been no longer and not still a lot to -- but. Even in the few exceptions that we have and running back room to a BC -- He'd get the idea of this game -- the focal point. You know day to day week to week of of what we're trying to accomplish -- in Egypt is an individual play and and I think that's huge for our young guys so. Hopefully he'll keep two in the same -- thats -- got to this point they're not continue to get better force.

But -- this wondering what to all the time become the featured back that you prepare you getting more reps this week carry the ball because LaMont Sammy banged up in the -- on the IR so I mean it is -- more you run of the ball this week.

You know what did you know the Patriots rolled kind of a running back by committee even would never want Celtics so well. You know you know Bill Belichick you don't -- sum up his sleeve so. Look see what happens you know my role as it is the starting fullback is like except try to. Creates -- when called on man and a lot of my number called the run a bulk. You know it's not pretty but most on the four yards and a college so. Try to give them that would modeled my number called.

Pretty is in the eyes of people who couldn't record and don't don't put yourself down and this madness I got the sounds -- in Basel but. --

You know it's funny I actually just talk about it today one of -- pagan and congratulated them and now. I'm not sure that was the humble approach and he says oh really like he didn't know either yeah yeah all of you really -- know now known Matt Cassel. He might really not have no you know the he can he can be a bit of an -- at times. -- Julio he's he's big goof ball he's you know what he's become and what what we need.

Well he immediately guys -- out -- ran the ball real well which -- comfortable that passing -- how important is just winning this type of Award for the you know his development a young quarterback trying to be the leader -- this team you're getting Randy -- getting Wes -- how important -- him you know personally in his development him -- for -- of his team.

In all his development -- obviously your quarterback have to be the leader that also you know. Globally and locally on the field you know but also you don't really touched down in guys understudy in the end. Making sure what he's seeing what they're sitting in the film study and even just the VI I communication on the field -- of knowing the coverages and only adjustment so. You know what and in regard to real war hopefully can only boost his confidence but I thought -- that the backing. From MI think he'd just experiences don't collapsing. -- would -- capsule -- not. You know he's going to continue to get more more that so. You know what I hope we'll just keep continue to improve war rally around them and make things easier on -- and not. You know continue to win the Patriot way which is that the.

You know I'm I was -- Jim hasn't -- is about like on most knows. So on this and not opt out always that we had a month now. I think any -- five Maria and he said on national leaders are trying to take you out specifically. A enough UC anymore a change in -- my roommate -- your QB job their local book. Thinking it looks like -- plan and -- level more rest of the more a blitz oriented do you see a big difference if you watch.

You know it. It if you turn this season Tuesday each of them you know before and after he took over you know they're they're undefeated. They're they're deep sense even energy watts looks like they're playing. Even a different style of ball you know they have a political tactic that. Can be extremely difficult you know we expense you know problem not -- they're really just trying to get an understanding of of the keys to within and then what's expected -- and and really people they had almost will cover a couple of everywhere confidence so you know what I don't know well. Obviously publicly speak of from their players and what he's trades bear but -- in the Belmont he walks the first couple weeks. -- and you watch these last two you know not only -- to know what they're they're playing with different type of tenacity looks like -- different type of ferocious so. What's changed I'm not quite sure they're small minute changes that -- seem kind of in the game plan for prior weeks but. All of they're just playing better football so well we've got to figure out. How to put -- stop that and try to get another win.

The other thing ET using a lot of people up front defensively I wonder if does that confuse you a little bit certainly you -- the positions. But you're going to see a lot of different numbers over there.

Well you know what it is no I could see hopefully lucky this week they're pretty consistent you know we'll see 53 come in and out a little bit but duck. You know the base of -- Betancourt. State you know and and we get to the third down stuff we see the Ford vehicle was 233 -- and that's where we really going to be yuppies -- this week -- just could be another record not. -- what probably what what personnel they had to start with and then you'll come up. Loading on cues from the coaching staff and and go from there so they are trying to simplify things you know who's out there -- no my responsibilities then and keep it as simple as possible and remote combo. Can get my job done.

I hit Evans as a foundation is dedicated to fostering open healing in the lives of children and families. Affected by sexual abuse something that doesn't get a lot of conversation out there. But something where certainly there is a need for funds and assistance and help what did you what did you. Latch onto -- through that being you're focusing your foundation.

You know what if if you saw my beautiful -- you'd you'd never know but they're great little girl my wife was sexually abused it and not really known that until I got in the marriage. And then seeing and experiencing all the emotional -- and partake in and really misery. That follows young girl and two. The teenage years in the into adulthood. I was all the way out by the consequences of that. Particular. Scott -- peaks and now so once we got her through her career counseling and I don't really emotional healing. You know struggled to use my platform open it up so aptly to. You know better assist children just like her until we start -- foundation which the main goal is. Basically appeal one stop shop for failure children who've suffered through sexual B -- we want to provide help but want to provide mentor your programs. Provide educational material for the families were schools for Church for whoever left outcome -- entry understand even how to. Recognize the signs of sexual abuse in children so you know my heartbeat is such work. Happened in my life I've got two beautiful daughter of by now own and you know that just isn't some great call that we decided to. You get together on you know this is something that effect much that would personally and not you don't want to do something about.

It's something with a feeling the psychological healing takes along won't for a Syria to get it out of you right you know it's like pick in the CEO of the ground apart in the light so you can. You can bring that -- and that's a great thing I think that's the lowest form of life on Europe stone abuse and child. God bless your brother good luck would I -- eat this it there's no way that you can help right now -- and cost an awful lot of money. And the prize at the end is absolutely phenomenal what he does -- Is he's going to give fans -- chance to join him and a bunch of his teammates in a Celtics luxury suite while party. And get this ready for this it's for next Tuesday's. Opening day game and Celtics will raise their 2008 world championship banner and then they take on some guy named LeBron is that there's. Pretty good.

Yeah now he's -- that. And the Cleveland Cavaliers. So here's the deal he's going to conduct an on line -- points -- of doing an auction where he won better who's going to the thousands of dollars and whenever. And that one person gets the benefit from this and obviously. His foundation does well in this thing it's going to be a raffle with a raffle tickets to the rebel -- to Alexi Wright with a minimum purchase supplies right. -- That's it that's all you have to do Clinton Broderick and and a line will go on line as well I'm I'm going to give it to you right now its its net raffle dot org. And then my guess is because there are numerous raffles going on one time you probably have -- finally he's pictures like that right is that they have to do.

That is true despite the -- foundation late in now. It's either from their.

I here's the deal. Not only do you get to go to the game if you and five of your -- on six people into this game on Tuesday night. And in the luxury box -- joining he's will be Benjamin want Watson. -- Thomas Kevin Faulk -- Matt Cassell who'll have his need AFC as the driven out trophy with -- and yes Sammy Morris all in that luxury suite to watch the -- victories 2008 world championship and a -- on top of that the going to give transportation.
