    guy around and I look I haven't seen a major dip from Tom Brady bit I I. Sometimes with some of those passes are off the market -- wonder whether Tom Brady 89 years ago. Would be off the mark and and I think of all those Wes Welker drops. So many of those Wes Welker drops -- balls that were thrown off the mark and usually he -- those and make Brady makes Brady looked more accurate
    high. You become a candidate to be cut and and I think Tom Brady does not want under any set of circumstances to put the patriots in a position where they have to cut him. But these guys can continue the question is. As those skills deteriorate at what point does it intersect with the is sending skills of a young player. But a question for me Mike which.

I joining us on the eighteenth -- hot line get a faster with forgy AT&T. Rethink possible patriot linebacker Rob Ninkovich rob -- Lou and Troy Brown here today how are you. -- here bigger or go appreciate the time after a win in Denver and obviously we've talked a lot about rob that. The first quarter second quarter you talked about a Greg Bedard in the globe that the change the defense making eight acres through. Your coach Patricia got having you guys change I guess on the fly the game plan and and shutting down Denver for quarters two through four. Well you know every week -- -- -- three earned her -- look that it has started in the previous you know few weeks so. You know every game prominent some different here but think that there -- ever. Regular credit were commentators. Don't have a good solid game plan that we hit it just through. What was thick -- game clicks do you figure you get Tim Tebow back there and it was not known for rent -- -- ability right now. All over toward it -- they were gonna run -- but apparently you can't really. Rock every single thing that you think that there are lord you know here obviously there are some options here we we -- there -- an option with. If you look back field and know that we get -- we're right back. -- is not that it's the first couple drives we just you know we didn't ever -- altogether for adjudication force and all of a so. So now a little bit we've all come together and really couldn't say -- -- until the the world you know I repeat import so. Just let -- stop the article but those turtles were -- course. A Jewish settlements will play the role of Tim Tebow during the week what was. Was like seeing in people up personal life. Are you or probably about -- outwardly and -- and families at least sixty. Well. There are at the big board and card debit -- to keep. Great football. Order a week we saw the attempt to cycle and Tim Tebow there and I just got our own torment wasn't what he really -- on a big. They're not out that the in the you know that's all -- -- -- -- -- pretty much beaten whom or falsity you know. Virtually river you know there -- an option for you you know harder or monarch -- -- -- that -- Did you pass on them below or physical format war you know perhaps the most open artists that breakdown that. A call me now they're the only ones. And while they're here is I mean like I get that form that is -- He's an athlete yours is that -- football players so there are after the game on -- have a lot more respect or Erica there regarding the you develop -- can do things latency. Or what do you what do you think -- ability to pass the football. You know it's easy to -- -- peace you know. Obviously. You know you gotta -- like Tom Brady use a -- -- Arctic you know it is both -- war -- great there are people obviously has the ability to. It does open we have extended the plate or you go he's able to extend -- -- -- from -- -- offer elderly simple all there are. Nadia played at Tebow and -- can kind of a reference point to Ben Roethlisberger that was the comparison cumin and rob made us in the media we don't know anything but we set a -- physical. They can bolt -- Nadia played a ball is that a fair comparison that that physical nature of a Tebow on the physical nature Roethlisberger. Well you know -- well. Roethlisberger is not really get -- there aren't -- that he would this speed but he he's got that great. -- -- -- already knows where it's closer now harmony can spin out of it is no different than the play as far as. It out of pocket and not really threaten Iran about you argue with -- you know there on the market or the factors -- receivers so. -- -- -- -- Avoiding Russian pharmaceutical little old awful ever get a. Then he has the has agreed to -- -- you -- -- bystander in the pocket he doesn't like them and bounces off of are there like he's made this Barbara seldom that few years ago there was an earlier but certainly he's a big board. Well how much is it public wasn't the first quarter. -- -- -- game planning a navy as far as discipline goes distance and it gets to keep dad edging keep Iran from going outside. You know there's there's different. There are different these horses -- differ forceful receive. Problem you know we worked -- percent sell them the finger there are so. Like that you gotta give them credit. And there from the receivers are pretty good blockers to. When you look at. A guy like Andre Carter rob at what he's meant to this defense obvious no official word yet but there's at least one report locally that he's gonna miss the rest of the year. But what is Audrey -- -- -- this defense and what adjustments to the -- the make as a group if if Andre is gonna be out for a while. At all. -- -- I'll look up -- -- -- he's -- agree better for certain -- -- you know I think there's a lot here so you'd you'd been through a lot of different things and you brought a lot of experience sort -- Leadership so. There are -- whatever whatever his -- is. There'll be exact it's as possible but so are in the notebook also going to be injuries so you just gonna have another guy that they're. Yeah and I think I noticed in the game you guys. We may some of those adjustments. You got started going right for for Tebow on the as an option plays ending give them a test appears to bulk. And you got to turn overall one of them was that part of the game they just forget about the pace guy -- -- get to him as soon as possible. Well you know -- force this year you know especially record experiment that decision that you use did you get to them. And put the pressure on either -- or keep we're we're gonna hit it. They're that's problems they accept and so I think to recruit so. In dorms are forced issue and it got it. -- kind of an on this defense a little bit throughout the year here may be a lot of that you might say but again you guys a ton of credit in this for this game you're making that adjustment. After that first quarter what what was that sideline like when it was 167. Yards -- first quarter. Just mentally won't what was -- all the conversations like. You know it really -- -- then the corporate mentality on the other there's so it's frustration. There's always a big round you broke well. Very not you it's going to be called were collected and talk to each other and make sure -- all the same page Eric you know you can't panic and no I think as the year audio we've let up so -- yardage let off the table the -- political -- We talked to dry out about this on Friday just said that the league and it's it's turned into an off the air conversation they were Troy and myself and -- just Italy's got a lot of offense this year but the tackling. Rob added that tackling people would say is down defensively. May be guys afraid of those head shots for it again and -- afraid some of the penalties that might. Be occurred guide James Harrison missed in the game here this week for you as a defender. How the rules changed it and India feel that is a fair look at what we've seen this year in the National Football League. -- -- know you gotta loosen the rules the probably the as a -- Center. Guys are now on our players union and play all about power and I really think you're. Robert black and -- predecessors. Talked about how the market that are here that are also. You know there's -- cigarette out there. You just playing at the fact that tiger is playing you want are going obviously or Republicans are written are hurt somebody put. We played defense from arms the government is off sent -- -- -- -- a certain way you look -- -- Trust me right there. I know I feel the same way you feel about it I'm kind of it drives me crazy when at sit down watch a game and watch office is get bailed out because. You know some defense a guy just put his hand on the on the tail end of some guy's Jersey in a pay as -- never really grabbed it. But he put his hands -- seven yards down the field are you know some guys -- as the accident is because again as your whole. I'm gonna that it was an account for Obama's kind of the way it is right now when you gas. You know they do again as a comedic animated just a bit but don't break is the philosophy right now -- this kind of way defense is at the plea. Just to kind of be successful over the long does this give up a few yards but don't give up ports and there is down below workers have done so. -- -- -- you know a thing or think to remove itself when. You know there's no flag there's no fly out of slavery but -- our report in us. Great effort that's the person to blame as -- have to. Or your corporate record. And I know and it's about humanity. Rob get out on this it's it's kind of a weird couple weeks of the holidays fall right during these games in this week will be interest in your back to work Wednesday. You get a play on Saturday how quick is this week in a feel for you guys. Oh yeah I mean it's therapeutic return well there we -- plan coming -- so that those that believe artist force. And problem it forces that aren't the whole thing. Rob it's going to be -- we appreciate the time your -- and as luck as the dolphins this week. Are you Bridget Tyler Rob Ninkovich he brought do you buy Sowells pizza you gonna carry out. One up pick up the biggest pressure is precious based these beats around south pizza. Now that's -- -- who get not a product pack a lot of -- Bring up that miss -- you guys don't -- out. I you know yeah I did a good in the -- I -- I mean he's he's a professional. You know most professionals laws gun he was good about him so you know just the ones that you know get your written about you bringing -- the band plays in the -- please.
