" Our conversation with a quarterback rusty by AT&T your world delivered to just after the end of the game Tom. A big -- politically back that would on the lot. Yeah we elected other network and Major League Baseball Bud Selig just to start the game like an hour earlier 730 some -- and -- like 115 is that a 125 makes also and stuffs. I don't give up at 3 in the morning for work. Makes it look out for the data in those guys -- We're look at me we're kilowatt about it pay is not enough I guess you're going to shatter every passing record. You're also going after Ladainian Tomlinson single season touched a Mark of 28 with two your -- now."

" That's ridiculous I don't think about now at about a -- Pretty much on that the ball forward -- 65 but off forward -- first belt. The -- a lot of work."

" All kidding aside some here's the view from a distance you can confirm or deny or no comment if you like. Here's a view bill -- a check as a major Eric Ross and seems hell bent on punishing every opponent. By scoring as many points as humanly possible your comments."

" I don't I really don't think that's the case really don't think that the case at all we. You know week he would good view is that the -- guys which you that which there's score you know good off. -- not out there it apart you know you're gonna erupt replays that the field. You know we're just look what it's doing our job out but it like work. -- is excuse off of that you know squad too many points there. I don't know what you want taken Ian. You know take the beginning ticket to -- let them come backer is what will we you know again."

" Well I think you use. That they think I'm not trying to get out there that if they're overplayed in the run because -- up -- the box. Thank you to do what you think about -- you know it's. They were out there at a place where I thought it'd just be somebody's whipping boy. You know we're out there."

" Don't think there's much of -- at the bat a."

" the -- I'd. It if you think it would. And -- comeback. And an outlook -- well and it's it's just out of a quick thought they got people extradite doubt that it stop the run giving there's nobody there a block. An unmarked defender but you want to let lombok -- at large O'Neal update. Then going to you know but it's kinda you know what what -- it -- it they want to overlook the box will throw it. And if they want to you know if they want to play account -- it. It is -- we're not we're not stupid but it worked out when are going to let people take cheap shots out there oh -- defender you know running backs that are. You know okay it would be honestly it is it's ridiculous but it. There wouldn't we have more than over Beirut would of the World Series you know they could whatever they actually that is. And wait no work you know try to make improvement from a celibate though."

" It this is going to be a theme though -- the colts -- you running rampant and politics meant the league would just preparing you for it. I I just one question from me Tom do you believe there is such a thing as running up the score in the NFL do you think. You know all bets are off these are professionals and you do what you do I mean if obviously obviously in college in high school. You know there is there's -- we call off the dogs do you believe there is that point in the pros."

" Now well well so. Well professionals well try and do our best in the guys on our team that if you don't fight contract this year so. You know like guys -- out of the contract and a great year can be -- you call off the dogs and guys. You know rushing yards are catching backs sort. You're not -- addicted you know from what it came out of work. You know -- quick out there and I guess it's a big problem mister it's good you know people complain about scored two point -- You know this is it for offense and our -- It more points we scored a better. And in a match up any momentum -- achieved and we're just trying to make the place. And you know like back on in the -- good -- good move for the entirety. Here after a long week. But offensive -- and -- that they can score a touchdown against the MVP -- is that. We're going to need it. I -- with the -- yet and we got -- huge challenge is. -- with Indianapolis but the more momentum you can carry a week to week. The other better everybody can perform when in the MVP and like Washington you know the better of people but you know more about a -- performance -- all of."

" Do you in retrospect do you regret running that the first touchdown in the -- when you realize how open moss wasn't. You know it would you rather have a touchdown pass that touchdown run."

" I don't -- Buick open."

" I think he pointed that out -- you have to with the just -- I'm I'm I'm I'm a good lip reader at the point that out to you."

" Yeah not even know they think he would say not quite mister whatever and about without. That's what I wrote everything that went on about our of the -- that the defenders but -- about quite fast. My decision making a run runner up corrected -- if you would open and -- definitely missed them out because I didn't see them. It was because I didn't hear about it I'll leave them all."

" Thomas is this the tough question but I'm wondering if you go the following players have in common. Bernard Berrian Michael Clayton Jericho Cotchery Jabar Gaffney Desmond Howard Freddie Mitchell. David Terrel Kelley Washington and Wes Welker. Have in common. They all have -- or close there then they all have fewer touchdown pass receptions the Mike Vrabel. In their career. I think I got a bigger helmet if if you keep feed them this"

" people -- by the they. Yeah yeah yeah they about the idea of you know each week -- You know he's a good he's he's really going to wait and there. And we have been there you'd better be ready for commitment not the world that world. When you know that it the ball -- at least somewhat open. Really a play and make it there pinnacle situation he -- in the went in the Super Bowl is open won what superbowl."

" How is that though he takes Joe Gibbs in the redskins' defense by surprise and he's done this nine times yesterday it was -- how does he get that wide open I mean everybody in the stadium knows you -- from a ball leaves open. I -- Taylor drug that was a million though."

" Yeah you know it's hard if Sean Taylor guard Mike that we walked the ball on the running the other problem. Though you try to identify when weaknesses of the he felt that the player and and and -- guided -- I'm pleased to get open it was a great -- we. If we trying to trick him in the think we were right and it might mean to you know put his hand on the outside my back like you -- block government and abide by -- by the by the -- I could recover. I -- separate -- so. It's just it's a great concept by by Josh -- other coaches and it is great execution by the opposite line and Mike and that's -- about try to identify that we would be -- how to play a big -- it -- certain plays and then you. He guarded you you. You try to. Try to take advantage I think that play was predictable well what we try to do each week."

" I'd how much tape have you seen an Indiana on Indianapolis so far and -- what your impressions of their defense compared to years past."

" Well say that you haven't seen any that's what today tomorrow or so. Will watch every game that they play here -- Seemed like to play really well I treated beef up the rankings which are pretty I think for the league in. I don't that he thought well and make up -- feel like Britney and -- actually brought. It group of athletic linebackers that they but one I heard someone in the quarter that they have the new quarters hey on the deck there area physical players so. We work off of that those guys -- went 12 straight and defending world champion and I think you know they play in the don't we oh we we definitely know what."

" Talk to outside observers this is more than just a regular season game wondering if you would address the significance of the two best and the two unbeaten in the National Football League. Meeting at this point this season what that does in terms of setting the tone home field advantage in any kind of psychological ramifications it may have been on the road."

" Well they don't think it means that you think -- I think. It's -- two to a better team in the and at Allen making its anymore and it really it's an important game both. And let's go to our next game if we're going to -- matchup against some other great teams in the colts -- if they'd -- mystery straight. And they're very good became extremely well -- with Payton and took some arbiter of they. -- they can do everything offensively and defensively they're playing as good as that well."

" And what that means for us is we gotta we gotta play. That it would here you have to be flaw could -- keep -- you lead because opportunity public place and they'll make you pay it forward. Mistakes that you make become -- ball over that pretty much go to scored imports you know a lot of what I have been there that they feel confident any close game he's going to make it figured. Plated environment where there's no weather -- It's going to be a great game it's. There's no doubt about that it's going to be excited both players definitely an elevated healing just because. You know -- when -- to a team like we did late you're it's always. Your dog now for a long time to concentrate on became the you always know that with the corporal you -- keep on the other. -- you know what really. Great team Italy in the cold so it worked well."

" In New York we're going to be good this team was going to be good to probably -- in the Dayton oh at this point but what or who. On your on your team has surprised you at this point I mean you're you're surprised and everybody you just put up record numbers but who. As Lewis turned out better than you thought that would be."

" But I'd I'd I'd certainly you know you -- he's been you know expectations than they did I think we'd be eight know in. -- as offensively of player I don't think yeah those it -- I think we. What are we could have been pretty you know good but it wouldn't ever worn out and worked our. Met the challenges what coach belichick's been been -- he's almost everything that they did not like. We're walking out you know -- back -- like 20 years."

" I he that we should get together like a sigh of relief you know and had a great time or coming in. In and had this really -- motivational speaker committed just -- you know 30 minutes a -- puppet -- together just like I've. You know I -- and but it that the true coach that you don't let that -- he's gonna win and you're expecting and we gotta get back to what we got things we need to improve and we're going to try to -- difficulty of a lot of strikes we got to try to find weaknesses that they have we can possibly try to exploit those we're going to play good football so."

" The only thing -- these two things that need to improve. -- how long is that list. Wells it's all talk a little pissed off in the fourth quarter with a was a false start yeah that didn't sit real well with you -- the girl up like 42 nothing at that it can have those things into it it. -- yeah that's true that's true HL for all the all the solid performances by. You know a number of patriots yesterday you know -- need to name almost seems to me the one that impressed me the most was was Wes Welker the reason I say that is it was pretty clear going in that game. But the Redskins linebackers and and defensive backs said we're going to hold the middle the field we're going to punish whoever comes across the middle they threaten essentially the slot receiver and sure enough London Fletcher look like he was trying to kill Wes Welker and all the it was skewed one of the middle catch the football."

" Yeah he it was -- I've really -- west had a great game. It it's -- six -- had in it and you know. They they pretty much stuck to it just that there -- limited amount calls. And -- hardly at all I don't think at all until late in the game and they double cover Randy. And and thought they pretty much people if they just refused to let -- but the problem -- when you're -- you leave everything open. And and -- less openly the backs open the titans open those guys were few games so. We're going to try to identify the double covered and try to make. You try to make that would put the other guys in good position they played -- Kevin lord he Kyle did a great job. Don't that we did put on if you aren't you may -- in certain ways but they know he's going to identify. I don't know what -- question was -- but I -- pretty good. We really hope we continue -- that support forward he wanna keep that brought the ball out. I would agree that we left it will we try to do with the offensive if you want to try to double cover those receivers."

" That your first completion to Welker of that that clever up play action in the shotguns at the first time we've seen that this year. That looked a little different and obviously pretty successful."

" Yeah it was yeah -- really the guy that went with support the block is. You all I have been there to make that long run so genetic in the front line in the and that public and let uncle which it would worked out really well and they slowed it down from trying to kill really too."

" All right today's quarterback question of the weak Poland with -- come from Terry -- eggs that are Rhode Island and and by the way Tom your forbidden to give the standard patriot answer you're gonna want to say the next one. But you can't say that here's the question what team or defense do you have to work the hardest to prepare for. Oh."

" I think -- He -- in this week in and I think that's out there. Out of the -- and -- want to play is is always I was witness something. And so many different things like which they -- before they work pretty. They -- five they play our kind of recovered at oak and with all of with the explosives max coverage which is picked up a -- and it is something -- Miami that pretty much I think that it replace. Back that -- One of the best besides the not return two whether they think and I think because he's been it's been out of what you it's that that in the end. We're an execution -- other other teams like effect forget that everything. Suggest that become more meant they -- in the -- so. Mr. -- in the way -- it was sort out their that would that you can execute really well so. It depends really on the on the that that your play somewhere extremely hard to prepare for. During the week. And it it's the game can make up -- others feel pretty often and in the preparation the week is relatively few people -- it is very typical of Coke can duplicate. Disputed the game speed of the past for a short really think of that they can -- so it is really at. The pennant on the."

" Aren't all the time it bit a bit about this when -- that he rod or Michael playing third -- team next year."

" Well my -- the World Series MVP you know he oh in the only run the regular season and the yeah yeah I think -- quote -- I'm not -- so well with regard would you and a would you want Alex Rodriguez on your team yeah of course Hewitt that like. But they would want deal you know today they pretty -- out like -- don't believe that Theo."

" A by the way as you prepare for Indianapolis I just want to know I heard Peyton Manning called you punk and dungy said the bill belichick's overrated just you know you get ready this week. -- have more lack of respect you guys get -- around the country. All right we'll talk about they after the Super -- Tom. Talk about it already with Dennis and Callahan to submit your question simply log on -- WEEI dot com and visit WEEI as football radio contest page the quarterback question of the week is brought to you by Toronto classic Italian deli."

" asked how many points they're going to win buying. Thanks this week he would have pulled let's play as many as they want to and nobody they must've come up with a number in -- now -- they're gonna wind blowing what's the spread."

" Florida Florida via. -- asked Paronto that your favorite supermarket deli party Italian style with Toronto"
