Mike Vrabel, Patriots LB

Well it was solid and -- snow coming down as usual and -- they get this game and on Sunday.

I think we'll play it no matter what occurred barely contain more style we just don't want Miami yeah. I could have people got in the stadium.

Okay you've got down to the stadium worst -- over one.

Yeah you're right. They end up party -- route one analysis -- again.

what it might be a game plan going in with Kurt Warner and that at times as high powered the high flying. Arizona cardinal offense. Putting pressure on Kurt Warner's -- you agree.

Well it is but you -- care why do you can't just let them arm every single play. -- Joba get the ball out of there and also get to a spot where. You know when those guys one on one they're making plays are thirty sorted out -- let him go get it -- where they're going to be when it from out of breaks. And -- just be careful so it would be -- mix things up and try to get pressure Rachal.

Mike has he changed -- you guys blow through Tuesday gave back with the Rams visited style changed at all.

I -- outfit you wore gloves act. Back replay -- to be wrong but I doubt you deduct the glove theory and not be worker former mean if it's possible it seemed like. -- He'd better arm and you're just as good if not better than what he was when he can't be pioli are back so. Amid talk about starting quarterback and started receivers in April or -- to look over out yards. I shortly that's pretty practice.

Then his numbers bear out his numbers are better than his MVP years were actually there. Would you look you look at what they do downfield at the vertical stuff just simulate what they did when he was with the Rams have great you don't have. Marshall Faulk type back there but the bigger receivers. Kind of problems that they cause -- yes.

Well I mean I think they struggle our problems were a lot of people and you know sort of hoped that we can we compete and we can we like -- they've got that Derek Derek Jeter's -- I read a lot of intermediate -- lottery and start breaking route quite the Rams used you back then. You know all the the talk started it down once he gets bought eight years are it is torn up awkwardly dad wrecked our political are you pick the yard they'll. It's got a twelve your practice could could. On this course she'd look like if you're sick you're just double relative to break tackles.

What were you watch those the cardinals' season they've looked fantastic at times than they look terrible at times. How do you approach your your film study you went when you see all that on --

When I look at it like it if we get turnovers and work able to -- to convert those turnovers -- just aren't up Saturday that. That we have a chance to win are they controlled watery -- just. Dictate the tempo and and brought it on it and throw all their arms -- and -- probably our struggle.

That the that the Vikings doing thing crazy last week that we guys saw that film and say okay we can we can do this and we can we can disrupt Kurt -- in this particular way. Horses simple case of Arizona's having an off day.

Well I manage their off -- but. You know I think they got out from a little bit and then make government. You know off particularly area score and -- to. You know run the football -- you -- you want to do every week.

His coach -- guys now you know. Two weeks left here in the season and you know I think it's well chronicled the type of injuries you guys have had as he geared back practices a little bit --

On and we still get the same amount of work and it you know probably not a bit of order was earlier in the year in. You're right we don't have as many guys out there. Are some got a lot -- a -- either hurt or whatever so we. You don't get my dad got there -- practiced well as respect guys find it anywhere else. I'd rather have guys aren't under our practice and onto -- Thursday or Friday.

Like this team is the most unbalanced team in the NFL as far as the passing the attempted 560 passes went 306 rushing places that make your job easier. Knowing that there one dimensional and -- and banged up and in -- towers. You know there's a little bit of a threat but for the most part the team to passing team is that it is that an easier time against.

There are passing team they are. You know that's that's -- bread and butter that's what they're powerful weapon that's how they want but. You know Letterman and a ball off to mark for fifteen or twenty yards you know. Every three or four point and that's going to be problems. So they're going to make it -- When they do we do except be able to --

But you guys that you personally that a number of years where guys around your. Got hurt left the right. What's. What's the key to overcoming that well how do you how you deal with just a rash of injuries where you guys.

I mean I think you just have to worry arches built them and prepare and you know do everything that they that you can't rate of speed and help your team that you know apt copy conditioning you -- and you practice -- You know whoever's out there -- that -- can't look around and worry about who's not there you can't worry about who's there. And are you going to -- are you get a plane I get -- quite well and win the game.

Mike I think an early answer this one but obviously went to the pro ball and you know the rosters Kamal last week only two guys go. One B and kicker was team snub by it was a talked about at all or just goes by the wayside.

Actually not talked about -- you know that a lot of -- play really well around here not make yourself. Expects that not -- do mean there's not that many spots in. It also when you make it you know it's an honor and certainly -- made our team -- more than deserving. And up. -- Eric Bedard acquired some more probable right now what -- quiet for a it'll play out that I was status set a standard around here are on target. Now we're used to find in January and were part of words he'd charge into that.

But does it is very -- the myth that that when guys are. Put the situation with their backs against the wall basically no lose. I mean a can't lose situation what. Does that affect the guys at all or orders or I mean. You see the effort that you give every week do you guys have put up well with the start here.

Where -- not accept charges and maybe but I know once you get out there are playing at the games in a bit they were -- you're going to have to. Eric make adjustments or rip meant that do all -- banker. Or you daughter you know when we can't quite well on. There's no magic formula that they that we have to win -- is because we have the land. You know what article are they're quite hard ordered what are -- able to do what you gotta going to go -- Famer the Cardinals. Are. You know they're trying to do you do Austria last board that it is that it or else locked up. So I'm sure that a -- ballplayers as good as they possibly can they're trying to hit on all cylinders movement in the playoffs themselves so. You know I don't see him out back -- for us.

Did you get sick last -- McGraw threw that interception in the fourth quarter.

But -- what I told people locker today I was watching the women's volleyball championships onions -- erroneous series next Wednesday. Yep and our -- if you watch any notion of all because those girls are. All of their -- phenomenal and --

Absolute I don't know how many times you go over castles house a little pictures in his life which used to all of that all of how can they -- on -- honestly how great was Matt last week and how you're how impressed were you with. Everything that he dealt with in the manner in which he dealt with it.

But how much pressure on certainly have never had to deal. What would pollute enough -- an apparent. So I can't really put myself when his position but and the way that he dealt what they added. -- handle whatever I need to handle from a family perspective and had been able comeback it in it and lead us and brought their play great. You know just just not not a not an American acted -- About the speed and guard Aaron gaining confidence every weekend is make them are really -- well.

Our Mike W honestly tell me tomorrow night you're not going to be touring at all to Dallas in Baltimore.

Yeah I spent a hotel that we stay we don't get ENFL network I'll dole got a -- to go to your clarion. What's that yeah they're clarion be the most -- national. You gotta ask your question can I got home again our. She told to expect Garrett didn't run out for field or an extra corner --

It was close -- who's actually applaud you model.

I don't know what are what are you don't know -- guy is she noted that we -- a ball whatever things don't try to all element. But -- she knows that when I was in Pittsburgh -- on the like that was the wing on the oval you know so week. They're deep and intercepted want to we will celebrate and we ran it back. So we're having -- satellite and I didn't -- there's a -- rook year. And our and so -- brought -- brought -- out there with somebody else's helmet and were lined up to this noble this search your point. And -- is just scream at me tomorrow aren't you wait mayors and their format on the way back out now but I can relate and I've been there and it cap.

Yeah it does happen I I threw one touchdown actually scored in the league after LA to step the extra point. If those -- you'd have a vault -- I asked about a about an hour after the game some. He says that you don't vehement dealt somewhere in the cheerleaders and Corey Perry and -- our rights Allen and blocks -- could you just a little more success that I ever -- flow yeah you got a little luck. Voted for that bill what do you also we also try to get a penalty early in the game because. He tried to pull them off sides on the punt -- punt from the 35 yard line. So we tried the head bobbled tried to pull offside call for memorial and a well -- her -- little tricks of the trade that's all. You know you have but it's happens I told was that he says Holmes -- but to have a go back to his locker there were about eighteen messages or morals or. Apparently.

Right right -- Out there that the next lob my particular few minutes in a good look on Sunday against Arizona. That I quite likely pitch it like Beckham Mike Vrabel a conversation like his power by every Patriots Friday by clean -- action dot net. -- and wasteful energy costs are nothing to cheer about tackle going to energy solutions technique energy action dot net a strong went into a lot more than pushed that when he -- of the operates.
