Michael Strahan joins on the fault -- Michael Powell aria. Or don't find pay if you -- to Richard Seymour all the current events going on come back to that's Super Bowl for just the second. Did you guys as a defensive unit. Expect to have as much success and in particular putting that kind of pressure on Tom Brady as you did not much of the patriots thought coming. Did the giants -- into that game.
You know we accomplished because we played the landscape these and I don't know anybody. That pressure. If any game I've ever played in fifteen years. A even into the game we expect we expect out of the twelve no. It didn't -- here but if we. And that we Volvo product but RO ROB. --
Did you guys play above your heads ordered the patriots offensive line played below there standards.
I think we -- it strike that would display and now we play and I don't know they seem a bit -- level of intensity and battle between red book by its that we just. Gave everything we had to -- it one day and if it didn't work out our favorites. But you know you get to do -- what -- like they were out there in Miami that baton got it ought they came back to court to have them. They fourth quarter to put the area that these. -- Whether whether the cake walk you the patriots fan of the way that law outlook then they look at. You know to -- what three ring from him big -- Gregory who left six years that a which are one and gore are.
Did that make retirement easier for you haven't on the big prize.
I'll -- Without. But I -- retired at -- pizza parties try to justify. Have a reader and not have a range -- a lot of great players. -- courier. Has -- won the ring in all of which really is. And about went well and they go and of the Tibet -- great movement they've area such book reader. So. -- yeah it may be.
I wonder -- former giants. Looks at it as ironic as patriot fans look at it is perverse the David Tyree has not caught a another regular season pass since he stuck the ball -- head. With Rodney Harrison hang on bottom.
And he did it that Friday of practically -- well updated it and it -- that it's it's it's you know it it's really it's. But that's one apple stores and -- about -- and in a statement or. Oh definitely yeah that's pretty failed -- Provo and when he -- we don't joke with her but no you get the game with a ten minutes ago we Tibet who went a bit. That day -- and lots of other early in the year would oppose him about that. And the that's shipments oh. I think 40.
And I'm Michael why can't other teams emulate what you did why can't they put the -- And those in the same place and put that kind of pressure on Brady when they play the paid fees are huge we guys just that physically. Is a gifted and physically talented or was it it was so complex that it's hard to the copy.
Of it we have to expect no -- court. And army came from -- out there in with the equal. But I don't think it was anything it's dramatic. I think it would. -- out with talent why there's in the accurately in the different talent around in. Kate -- our -- and weeks that are now. We challenge ourselves more than we we look that they of the opponent of the ten. I think there were weeks ago that we put together -- he wanted to better news Meehan. Top want to bet though the end what visible but evidently that's how we kept the court we have fun we units strip. A bit of practice we were both in the playoffs you'd sit -- you know get -- or preceding game or or or being in their lives. We -- we -- at that time that we all we know we were accountable that's one thing. Be a week of rapid -- for. If you're never let -- To let you down when you look at her comments pale blue -- say I think you'd hear it I think that's how we all of what we.
It's funny we asked the question you know why can't the patriots. Pick up where they left off meaning and beat the eighteen in all part of that season not that that last famous final scene. When you look at this patriots team do you see another team that is is capable of of going undefeated.
Ali yeah and it definitely. Artillery you know. We were Brady getting injured massive -- definitely did help. I mean I think that they were on track to come back in. And pick up where it didn't leave off -- credit mess you know they've been completely well last year. And you know unfortunately -- situation with the league and playoff. It with that record -- that they were -- negating it. And now but I think. Brady back in and if they -- they know how to put together the veteran player that they brought him. Belichick -- genius at getting everything in about a player make the weapons that have been we've seen. Very. It's that have to be after one favorite. That to win -- division and in the proper. -- Leo when the.
Well we're talking Michael Strahan former giant all -- blocks NFL football analyst Michael if you are Richard Seymour being traded from the penthouse to the out house. What would you be thinking today what would you be doing today.
What -- thinking that they are delighted they have our -- you know we've taken a few days to cry. And yeah. Take a few days to cry here really -- and really what applicable law. And an aspect of -- of the game for the period they you know. And now it's a while ago -- back at the do what year and now. They go from I think that's what we have to look at the good friend of mine in the great player I would be surprised. These have been very -- it was. In the -- You know what think about it you know football football and Lotta aid from in the between he -- so. Biggest thing is if one year contract it's a bit of what buyback right. And obviously that would be it for -- look like the good school up there simply butt off that one here that may have your option to work.
Have you had a chance to talk to Richard.
On -- advocate. At all and in that they do that the cape region mean. I take it up look this situation or adoptive. You know unfortunately. Are maybe the play -- they'll at all.
Hey we hear people say and I'm sure you've you've lived that where you know it's a business or find it's it's a cold hard business and the patriots are. Perhaps the best example of that but there are other guys and we used example Tedy Bruschi there other guys who. You know maybe take a hometown -- maybe they just don't want uproot their family they don't wanna go to losing. A situation like Richard is now do you think Richard has any regrets about the way he's played his hand over these years. Could we have found -- way could be of state here in New England if that's what he really wanted to do.
Well amid I don't know I don't know exactly yet we have word now about their -- thing that. -- million look at it Richard -- make three point six something about it yet here. Which in the greater scheme of -- but out of money. But it football and its position for what he's done it's not that. May you look at our main word was a great player but he five time pro Bolton. Having yet no -- reads quote the pursuit of Richard and -- make it right fifteen million a year whatever it is. I think that Richard -- to -- underpaid. And in the bit of football but I can't fault you know prepare hey I want more money at best of.
Do you fault do you fault Bill Belichick for the way he operates for the way he treated Seymour.
It's of this system but to think that'll big players. You can't life it was to get hurt businesses business but what can we give you anymore and they have to keep that. If I have provided don't work for -- and in -- open because of spots book up they have but are they come back later I want to add on gonna be -- after. W. But beside that contract that I would in the apartment locked -- player have remembered. -- It differently than the patron of forcefully for Richard you know did what we -- appointment but if he -- wouldn't wait wait people -- help the then you know big event they were.
Michael Strahan now you're no longer in the NF opportunity and it and you can tell the truth truthful answer this question. -- productive veterans like you when you're playing. -- and Richard Seymour as he's continuing to play really present the unproven rookies coming and getting 353841. Million dollars guaranteed having done nothing and NFL.
Or in -- while playing. I -- it that all right yes it is and if it I think you know outlook duplicate that the opposite that is twelve years. And here I am old here -- I haven't. I think at some point it weapon like that. Well if you look at it now so they again have a they have. Anything it's -- if they've gotten a check to make that -- they're awful vote. Ethnic for people really are words were or were professional athletes really professional at it. Everything you do it with predicated on proving yourself completely depleted not to support the and at that point the -- occurred every penny that. -- The proof that you deserve it's I think that if these. The way lot of -- you have that -- But lately have neglected for -- to work. Like it. -- the protective -- And I appreciate what I didn't now what got me here. And you're not to -- start.

Have a problem audit and Donovan McNabb that this development Leo you bet you know the fans are often there about it it's. Or -- I think that the great thing about in. The greens were locked. Because of its intention of ever forever change that.
