Tom Brady, Patriots QB

back forth and final hour doesn't Callahan on a patriot Monday coffee with a quarterback is brought to you by our great friends at Dunkin' Donuts. Already joins -- some AT&T online AT&T your world delivered good morning Tom how are you up. Good to talk to -- yard target it never ceases to amaze me up and what congratulations by the yes first of walking gradual -- yeah. It never ceases to amaze me and I've been watching you do this for quite some time at the depth and the breath of your responsibilities on this football team. And how deftly you must handle -- the offense numbered sections of the aggressions and that what it's all said and done and everybody's still hasn't even come down yet. You have to go unanswered the questions after the game with that in mind and that admiration stated. I asked do you agree. The Panthers defensive backs that Randy gave up yesterday chose not to be involved -- specifically. Was responsible for the interception when he didn't run hard out of the on the cut.

Well you know I'm gonna I think those guys ever went takes kind of liberty to say whatever they wanna say after. You know when someone. In a situation like yesterday so. -- team player plays -- Chris Noble to a record so -- news and so it. And I think that's. You know. Anyway you know if guys when they when they played really date they want to you know short one what they can do it. I guess you know they came into the game pretty confident but you know these. -- the best player in history -- felt so. It's it's just. You know when identical perfect out there then you always want to. You know to jump on Randy but you know -- all of us and we've all got to do a better job will probably one in. We've we've made some pretty great place there in the third quarter and the fourth quarter they expect. Big stops on these and so. You know plot encouraged about so. One out and political.

Maybe I -- wrong and may be interpret seeing this in correctly but it appeared on television. At least two occasions you were trying to re engaged Randy. He was listening but not looking at -- To the extension Ken can you share the tone and tenor of those conversations Tom.

Well and again and he's he's one of you know he's right. The -- as -- platelets he's. He's won -- by my good friends on the team. I'm always trying to keep everyone motivated into whether the receivers the offensive -- and you know -- vote. And know when when we don't make good plays when you know like or perceptions you know. -- dropped passes there. You know fumbles. On bush trying to go over a popular guy up in just. It's easy to get down on yourself you know I think. It sort support nickel back out there and keep battling to that we did that definitely I guess they're ready. You know definitely done that. Over the course is Kris had to -- it just -- would go right and a you know it we can certainly play our best game on offense but we but we want and that means well it's what's most important.

About these last three weeks Tom do you have to get more. From Randi. And you and you think you will get more from Randi this last three weeks and into the playoffs.

Well you know we've we've gotten a -- from. More year he's the top receivers in the league right now that he's up there in yards and catches and touchdown and you know every game plan that the defense comes up where it. You know trying to -- user. That they they all say okay we got its start remote so it's not like they don't have respect for the game and they'll stop and and so.

But wasn't it in 07 also. Or in years past the game plan. Then to stop moss and they couldn't do it and our last three weeks he has six catches and yes today. Only one -- any and a drop in that one I'm just looking at the at the game summary right now and you only through his direction once. In the second half -- why is that is that a function of the defense.

Yeah mostly that's that's a function of the you know when you -- you know single coverage -- get the ball so. -- He's a dynamic player for a certain all of our best player to player that that's that's what it comes down to these critical things we never but he. To to play their best and we've had thirteen games -- They were they five game and our division and certainly mr. most important days ago so. Randi is it you know I -- haven't radio. Let's have on the -- you know it would lessen. And the third receiver leopard may be a -- the -- grab the ball better yet -- so. Others -- definitely composite we take out of -- now we all you know what I wanna know what -- doing our best every week but that's not -- case. You know and at and that -- would this come back and rebound and tried to do better next.

A time you say part of your job is to keep the guys engage and involve -- we've -- you from time to time you know talking of the offensive linemen get them all jacked up. Have you ever felt compelled to have that motivational inspirational sideline conversation. With west does he seems like a self starter.

Yet you don't need to do with western markets and he's he's he's unbelievable and he's. You know he. Kind of his leadership that would be able to do -- they will perform -- Compete on a down down basis with his size and stature in the middle you'll get those guys. In the -- he takes. Announcing television do it justice like it up close and if you fall with the with the ball -- in the Q and dialing unpopular at. Yeah that's that's pretty unbelievable so he's. You know he's he's what this is all about he's the kind of guide this team was built to -- and obviously kind of player that could -- and ever all the fans are really attracted to because he's. You know kind of that -- an undersized guy who's undrafted. A free agent -- cut by San Diego and now one of you know four players NFL history to have three straight seasons -- protections so. That's pretty humble.

To show how little I know about what's going on out there in the third quarter when Welker caught his 100 and got crushed. I set out loud well they can't go to him on the next play until as it gets cleared. And sure to be doing gave out and another another first down was at play designed to -- aborted just work out that way.

It just worked out that way and just based on the coverage so he. Kind of got for -- underneath Derek gave to integrate catch and run. For the first -- play event we went 95 guard -- tried to score 96. 96 after you know the other -- where we -- you know a decent argument in the and that. I don't get the ball down canyons and we internal split. You know that's sure to -- a lot of a lot of hard by thirteen and let the crowd really got into west got -- populace that. He was fired up and he just came back and it kept turning the ball.

I don't give a photographic memory about these kinds of things why write it down from time to time this is -- that you can go to Welker and they can't stop you I believe creek -- wrong Tom. Fourth quarter of the second and nine at the New England 25. And at one point you're you -- Omaha and I think you also yelled west's and you went to west route for a instead get to the day in a first down that clock you know you all the guys -- much to throw it to in the defense still against what do you say the past critical -- big. Actually did you not tell that the named Wes out.

I don't develop these the authority of the president were smart they ought. To have everybody. Is less than those guys too much credit -- It's not about the smartest government.

Well so what has more tricky to use at west right. He didn't like to see what off the -- go down and out eight yard out. -- urge you would want okay.

Tom I gotta say and the -- It looks when they replay when they show when they analyze it it just looks like Randy didn't go hard enough and you were the victim you get you get mr. You get the blame for the interception but it didn't look like your fault.

Well you know there's there's. They're there's always -- you know with with receivers and quarterbacks and the you know a quarterback you wrote to a place rethink because it going to be ready soft sound. You know he he went to the plate where he thought the ball's gonna be so you know that you blamed India on that and on the -- one responsible with the football and and you know I I -- gains were -- exceptions and especially get a team like that to turn over your team. You know it's not too often that we lose the turnover battle like we did instilled when McCain. So he -- turnovers have been have been. -- they're tough to overcome and we don't waste overcome and so you know we're just gonna keep -- on we're gonna keep trying to be on the same page and keep trying to make the good throws in the good read and you know hope that we connect.

I think you I wanna take credited John I wanna take credit for pointing out that that number that big and number 84 no -- eligible. You never noticed him before but he did yesterday. So you just wanna give us credit for almost place it.

And dot conversational Monday that social search and last week that -- that I got -- eighty words and just kept meditating -- eighty forward. And sure enough you know you guys are right that you.

We are ready. -- know what it took another failed fourth and one with a quick get to the fullback early in the game in fact in the first drive. You remember that we gave you vice include Ben Watson in the game plan.

Yeah yeah you guys you know that was -- that would either so. You know if you got one you know it's the second covered so -- Foxboro it. Eleven applications. That we welcome you -- there should they be if if we can have you guys down.

Will we get out of work at 10 AM if we do down there were valid opinion yeah we're done we're --

often hit on the first due by noon but -- all -- easily yeah technical problem with that. So I might -- senate application you've got the effect. So not not a pretty win but as they see this time a year and he -- good win right.

I think so I mean we've we've played a planet a better games offensively you know and and lost so. And it's a team game and compliment dispersed instead that. You know one of the best jobs off -- offensively. You know we we played a great game defensively. Offensively we made some critical as we needed to. So Arctic like it said there's it was -- all perfect in in you know but ultimately comes on the winning games. And which reining in forty degrees out -- it's not typically going to be your game that there's going to be an important issues and so forth so. He's got to overcome and ultimately be the ones there and -- yeah that they.

Did you see Julius Peppers coming or did you hear him coming when you ducked underneath just got to come a topping your shoulder and say delights a -- life.

But I can heal and that's it if you -- the biggest bet that you. When you read machine's Internet their price 67 to eighty. He's he's huge and -- athletic and he's he's a great player but we -- so concentrated on. A pass protections in you know we're haven't. And I don't between the fact yesterday -- so two games and -- an offensive line -- performance. And down the stretch here. But to sack with gains -- that's the big credit those guys.

Tom any any problems in the clubhouse I mean we -- way you hear it everywhere every talk show every TV show. -- got issues inside the locker room for the first time. In a long time. Can you confirm or deny.

Well you know I think there's just I think from everybody you people or their frustration when you lose. Really there's one thing because that lets wait there's one thing that's gonna make -- also better and one -- only as a way. And -- there's just no there's no sense of you know wellbeing. When you lose gains taxes it's pretty much as simple as that so. To be a much better feeling down their product for this week. I can actually. You know turned it -- the he he on this week you know we like last week it's just it's so frustrating because. Ever want to think back again back on again what you're trying to move forward on the game stars that obviously disappointment from the week before but you gotta move forward with -- head. You don't sit there -- reflect on. And on Thursday afternoon we sure should one making -- it's just it's not doing things went well.

I don't know how you -- sort -- are you quantify this is the leadership of a guy's like Richard and Vrabel and Rodney missed in that locker room and if so are their people capable of filling that void if not this year gold for --

Well we always you know it's that those leadership rules are established over time but by example that's but I. You know mostly by example and then by performance. Or do you work hard are you committed to the team you selfless. You put -- personal goals. You know behind whatever the -- the polls -- Do you practice or that the day he he show up with a with an attitude of winning attitude of and that you didn't you played through injuries and I think that's -- people gain respect you as a player. And then all year you know you're chosen as the leaders captive. You're gonna like Junior Seau on such a great example for -- You know it just because if he's in their six in the more work and now the forty year old man you're working out harder than any 22 year old that we have. You know we've still -- every day no -- You know by the way it is when most enthusiastic as we have in the winner that. So guys rallied around. -- you need a bunch of players like that we've had a bunch of players like that parents and obviously with the transition of the roster other guys stepped in -- Instill that like -- like -- As you know really in the last. You know you're so I think he's really taken that to the next level comparable system. Obviously is the way he goes up there performs. He's so reliable. For for a so. We're just fine wasted it to keep open.

just curious on the -- vote on captains or does the coach picked them. No you votes of those guys all earned their captaincy that in just you know -- the coach access. Now -- that we are. Isn't embarrassing -- quarterback of the quarterback doesn't get elected isn't kind of embarrassing for him especially vis a good quarterback.

Well -- to argue with the teammates that the that the that the that the reflection of -- personality.

Ever wonder if the coaches rig the election just -- everyone voted for some of that in alike could.

I would think there will be the case although. I would put that -- of.

Hey when you said we don't fight very hard it it went around the globe it was like international news. First and a does that amaze you that don't seemingly innocuous statement are not really didn't name names -- having -- we -- the fire. Gets that much play and and two do you feel like you fought harder this week.

I -- we did you know I'd we did and that's in Ohio we speak collectively I don't it's the -- game and it's it's an -- about. One player. Or two players five -- it's about it's about the hole and you know that every position that's every player that every coach that everybody's commitment. Ultimately to winning in. You know coach settler after the game you know -- we get -- three games were gonna put everything we have into. You know company today the practice. And -- this is what we have to do to. You know this this what we're gonna have to do put him -- it that's it that's not important for you and then stay home and it won't move on without. And that's the message he says and that's. I think that's where you are more stock and I would -- That the cue from coach. I think he always. Is right on top kind of support for the he's got a great sense that he's been around on eighteen so when he says you know we're not -- That's you know kind of how I feel too good. I understand. That's. -- and mental -- a lot of things. It's your attitude on Wednesday when we shall for practice -- Monday when told the communion -- note getting together with teammates to watch -- Staying late after practice to get more reps of the things that have been very good year. And that if that's everybody's willingness and -- to do that so. It's. You know -- record that we really do displays there would doubt it can't be of first place in the division I have that. You know just. It's it's the consistency that we need to show. -- game like yesterday it was you can win a game and it's that I obviously -- some would move forward.

Domino you're not gonna will reveal the a gory details in the severity of your injuries even though we think it's ribs finger in a shoulder. But can you tell us or are they getting better -- you treading water or you go on south.

But throughout better I -- how they got -- yes yeah so that helps echoed the long ways. -- to me feel better and -- Have much chance to practice last week which -- never you know like going to -- that practice but it's just the way that circumstances. You know came out so I I. You know hopefully that goes better this week -- open about their practice and whether. You know I've -- might do things this year it's -- it's everybody's so. -- I don't think injuries are an excuse for you know poor performance so you know because you know you can place a little too though -- injured so I think that the -- to be yet but just think -- out they're not here to help your team win and not open your. You know we're just gonna keep fighting through injuries whether. You know bad down. You know that's that's that's what a.

Tom now most importantly a little inside radio stuff fear and have to confess a little while ago when Brady bambino number one arrived in you name him after me. Jury was actually -- devastated over that and I think -- way you can make it up to him. And he really hope and against open don't break us hard here the Brady Bambi on number two might be named Jerry issued elected John and Jerry to deal with -- on Monday. -- Donna Jared if you would like for the rest your life.

You wanna make an announcement -- Terry feel better. I don't know like Beckman. About the future of separate congressional wife you know he's he's -- decision so we'll tell us what the decision is. We you know that -- I -- at home all week. I we have and then take about six months and then about two days before you -- I don't like that in. It kind of back to the drawing board. Good practice and we can get ready for the game. --

You really don't have a name so you call moments say house what's his name don't want. -- that I was a bit it was tiger -- she says I don't like that name anymore yeah.

If I assure you put some type. The IQ what about you have and so you really shows that one. Not ready. To get it will that would traditional will become an exotic yeah. Traditional. Lead with one she -- you one. Yeah the yeah Brazilian or America. Well I -- that I. Needed a based on yesterday and it was a good strong -- is John and Jack that's a good strong man and a band Brady. And sense of the tournament then wants it hasn't made good catches good strong and great. About west west rate which. Is Hrbaty after all.

Yeah -- have been -- if there's a tape we've got about seventy true I've got to be for more than two hours to. To doubt we could talk about it so.

Can you tell us -- that you had a thought you had in the since rejected. Oh I can't you ready for now I'll go back to all the tell me let.

I couldn't help but notice you kept a game ball I'm guessing you had some. Plans for that did you give to somebody or did you put it in somebody's crib.

Yeah that when I you know the last when -- my first some was born. It was the pre season the Carolina given a seven and we into the game's first. You know it took a few rubles so. I don't know maybe maybe some there's something about that I kept that offered to which is now probably destroyed.

That's with the that's that that's the tech specs yet and -- actually -- the other night. So yeah -- kept out and that's the good.

will give give our best -- your bride and a little Jerry in the crib the beautiful. All question the weight of -- NG. Yeah I guess no apology -- question of the week the Renaissance alliance power and clout quarterback question of the week comes to us from Ron in April and he wants an all. What's your son's name on just get a quick exit. What would you prefer to play in a -- domed stadium bit has climate controlled situations or do you prefer the challenges. Of the weather.

That's great that's a great question. That you always. Let's see all these other teams that you know like Minnesota article there. You know these these cold weather environments with. The climate controlled and and for an offensive team that obviously. The great thing. You know it's hard to get to go through. You know in in a December like an apartment where replay obviously played in buffalo. Offensively you'd you've got to have between. Constructed that way to play in those conditions. And by do you think that helps build a lot of mental toughness as well. You to go out there like last week by degrees and there are wins. You know you'd use YouTube in -- kind of enjoyed that. And I understand that the big. -- advantage for you when your -- that doesn't play. You know we play the colts. In in 20032004. -- you know where the weather was crap. And so you know there when when that when it's perfect indoors and it's. There's nothing to I think by but I understand how to play in conditions can be huge benefit for so I kind of like the advantage of although you know what I get pissed off for the you know -- rainy and cold out. Because return you'll be really effective throw the ball but to -- but I know that an early lead. Mental toughness and discipline on the -- so -- that.

So usually the coal to try to prove there really manly men if you meet the playoffs -- AFC championship game and an open the roof on them ruble but several open Lucas yes yeah yeah. -- on the roof and play elect a man.
