And bogus but we stay tuned as big cat and but it is this thing up to -- Okay.

As Matt Light after the game last like it's done for our weekly get together with Matt Light and tell you this -- never gonna end. He's not going away Turkey but come back here every single Friday units are presented by. A savings bank life insurance company of Massachusetts. SPL I do Teddy Bruschi did have a simple known militants conversation. With SP a lot about protecting your team and all the affordable dependable. Life insurance call 888 get this deal would get used to you now. Here every Friday panel like the fact that this thing is continuing on.

Not yet they let there's no better time to talk you guys in the lead in the January. I can do this every year.

You said elect talked and seen how we feel better we thought you hated us all along that the sport I thought we don't there during the kind of field goal looked like you would dole -- supporting.

That yeah you're not never been they're -- watch that stuff you know I just figured. They focused you know a bit deeper opened and you know what I get to work.

How about how about the play by a couple plays before that the field goal attempt. Where we're sterling award knocks the ball out of Lee -- hands where were you did you have a good view of it and what did you think initially.

Yeah you know I didn't I didn't know what happened until you know well after the game I mean that thirty. You know let the stadium men and heard about it on the way home so you know again I was. I don't we -- the moment and it's you know more wrapped up in you know what I'm doing them sidelined him. It would it was that political player and has played the game I guess.

How do you think tennis is obviously hypothetical but you know when you feel load the -- the game where you -- starting to prepare for overtime offensively and figuring out you know some of the things it would happen. General to planning ahead to --

You know we had we have a good formally done it sang of that nature I mean really. You know what you're really going to overtime and you know Pacific got that point -- You'd go out there and hopefully continue to do which have been -- we've been moving the ball pretty well. You know we've built without success -- felt like. You know given the chance to go back out there and then have do -- we would have been all right so. But yet you have a program will have a conversation.

Take a really good protection against the ravens and really all all year -- you in particular an aunt's older and everybody has done a very good job protecting. Tom and allowed him time to get the ball off. Is it --

It has been a group effort I think you know we have receivers that really know how to get open and that they understand our system them. In other they know the -- the pot and all those things to go along with that position and I think you know have a guy like you know probably you know. And get the ball -- quickly and remove the pot the when he needs to you know it's obviously you've given up front you know at an additional water them. You know keep in you know some of these guys that amendment so -- you know keep them healthy and an active and -- big part of it of -- sort bulk then you know just a really a great offensive team effort you know throughout the year figured doubles you know what we -- their.

An unnamed jets swords. Or an unnamed source told Gary Myers in New York Daily News -- Tom Brady. Showed disturbing. Nervousness in the pocket last year in the jets' playoff and it's Tom free that was headlined Tom free agent Tom for eighties and one nervous cat is apparently the news won't allow pussycat to be part of they have. So that's that's early storyline is that Tom Brady's nervous unnerved distracted by the pass -- if you detect that.

Not to listen you know I. Bullet -- that I could tell you the deck that'll make plays is that Europe for a long time and open to anybody can argue those statistics. You know. Did you you know they'll be just fine regardless what the issue is our. You know what's what's gone on we've battled through a lot over the years them. You know service -- about open up.

Our since we're talking about protection let's get to a you've heard -- for the last four years what happened to the protection. Front four against the giants in the Super Bowl you face in the same team a couple of different players up front. What happened. With the protection in the Super Bowl four years ago and how do you make a difference here in the super ball.

Army whatever happened four years ago and they're relevant. You know for a number of reasons I mean look we've only got you know seven guys -- you've -- up. Super Bowl let on this payment and that statistic that I didn't wasn't aware of until recently but you know. The real the real question is you know what we have to do with. You know obviously give them time to make his decision them and when you're faced a team like this that. It's not one side you know but -- side of the right side it's really crossed the border Google it do in other very active upfront we -- to be really. Assignment oriented and we know it would be able to -- It'll be -- you know basically on the road -- will be loud at times them. He hit it could juggle all those things and and and yet that's success earlier in there's but one thing in which a bigger one thing. And that we know that that's what hit them so we. You know leading up next week and obviously take the time we've had this week so far and Eric is but knowledge of these guys on under the concept.

Measure passing game a little bit different this time around that it was four years ago and that. You did stretch to feel a little bit Porsche you have already much I had to wait add to give your quarterback. A little bit more time factor in the pocket for the -- the for him to get separation on that route is it a little bit different now in the way you guys operate.

I bet they were a lot different in -- number of reasons whether Hui got a wide receiver. You know who we have a tie them and how we can. You know mix and match personal person things of that nature you know I think. You know that this -- then just. Overall. A completely different season -- in the -- your leader really never accurately draw comparisons from one here in the next.

And I was gonna ask you about that obviously the the big story. Leading up to the Super Bowl and on the day of the Super Bowl will be. Super Bowl 42 and not Super Bowl 46. Others wondering if do you go back not just to that game but. When you're looking to to get an advantage or you wanna see who where trend started do you go back three years when -- preparing for a certain player for years or do you say. But I'm gonna see what they did this year and that's what my answers are or. Do you ever go back how far do you go back there I guess is as simple way of --

figure but it is different and I think you know look we've got more than enough this year whether you talk about the preceding game for the game -- their regular season. You know we've got to we've got a film a lot of these guys -- really. -- other -- actually be most folk -- without a player right now have another player announced -- obviously very good at that in the last 45 games that. If you see a lot of that from -- work from 530 lot of talent and you know they'd there's they have a certain swagger a certain went out and they're playing what right now so I think it's. -- more per certificate that -- And -- and their current state that it benefits and that there.

I like it was a little bit surprised when I heard the number of players that. Are playing you know for the first time and in a Super -- same thing with the with the giants has a lot different roster. That was four years ago looking back you're first looking at this. How different is it and what do you have to duty at the -- talked to somebody the young guys 'cause it's not only a different week. Tuesday was media day where they will give us some of the most bizarre questions in in the world little of nothing to do with football. All the -- to the game itself -- with the timing. Is so different before the game where you're announced half times a lot longer even -- seemed to -- A lot like how different is it and what do you do with the younger. Guys to have to let them know how different it is.

Or you know I think you for small from a you know from better example I get you know we we could go about our business and do it what we know you'd be done and you open. It's horrible situation -- guys hit you that you could lead by example they don't need and that certainly say a whole lot now. That's our ability. You know logistics involved with. Are your -- around at what should do and lead not too -- and how much chaos there and all that but do not think. You have built a great job obviously being routed number of times you go to the great other you know the guys prepared for. You know just like is that how much time there is coming off the warm up and you know halftime and all that stuff you do need to learn how to control herself -- the little topic goes into the game and that is different than in normal week but. You know as far as a leadership role. You know I think. He you'd go out there -- you worked his tail off -- do all the things you've done you know thus far. Well maybe -- better and a little bit harder in those you know this is mr. I mean I've ever gotten those that does this.

A really got to ask your hardcore football question I don't know how you gonna answer this one. Is it true that Tom Brady gave the entire team hugs and if so. You rock in your drugs right now.

You know on the Iraq right now but we've we've got not one but two. Different. You know prayers devoted band and their fantastic. I don't I don't know how you can argue that. You know worry what the feeling on your feet there -- that that they. That's the great experience.

A proper authority fluffy feeling they have any feedback don't we usually I think at the end seeing. Commercial you did a few years ago I don't and I love to see that re done with the bugs.

You're going to be beautiful and in that particular and I do which they look like you're no matter what that adds to.

I was gonna do it for you at the end but couldn't do it because you are raft pulling off. An unbelievable package for the foundation so I.

Yet so you know we will look at it and you know obvious separating out the breeze them. You know he's in pretty good player you know that when I got the super. What ball they evaporated over half million dollars for the raffle. And were gonna appear similar you know -- all. We're going to be giving way to two tickets for the game. A hotel space and the air fare as well some you know why actually signed memorabilia little meet and greet. But it took great -- it it's all up that light -- dot org. -- you go to the -- light foundation dot org we have on our home page. It's very simple you can go there. Tickets for two dollar raffle tickets for two bucks. If you're prepared for and give her body it a shot that brought the big game and you know look open to raise money. And we can pick our foundation that next level a great opportunity for them. Obviously for the lucky winner it's going to be just like an expert.

I'm Michael a lot of them by the raffle tickets just try to see if we get the hotel room. We're just.

If we are now all the -- for -- the artists are put the whole thing together absolutely. You know it's it's -- thank you look at the opportunity you know we spent nine months you're -- shootout and that could maybe do better than that imported so you know opener but it goes small on him and takes shutting.

An army repeated that it's not an auction where one person who's gonna commit to pay an awful lot of money you can buy tickets at two dollars apiece. And you witnessed so and what does that -- with the -- over.

We -- the quote development on Thursday 11 AM. Thursday at 11 AMC you'll have a slight already so they won't even have to worry. Well there again it will -- in the platform -- flight you know and let the port of mobile flight Friday morning. Get rid of that throughout on the Indianapolis.

Won't start until. Johnny. -- it might be snotty know it might be sunny and 34.

The better solar flare it's happening I mean is that there at the earth that is making sure that we're gonna have a warm -- environment and ended up.

It is a relative to those solar -- anything to get used to in going inside for the first time this year.

Now I know you know I think you know a lot of guys who have played there on the Siemens and you know -- we played indoor -- obviously him you know we've we've been -- some. You know in the bubble last couple of days and you know turn it similarly open to that there's not really a huge difference there'll be a part of a little warmer the readers you know.

Since you're the home team do you think he'll -- in the artificial crowd noise for you guys. -- a little rugby. They listen not elevate our great week maybe you'll I'm sure we'll catch up with you sometime. Next week maybe you'll Alaska of one of those stupid questions on media day we'll catch up with -- sometime during the course of the week would give -- Give the foundation in the website again.
