" Joining us on the AT&T hotline the winning quarterback from last night and that football game the quarterback and the Patriots Matt -- good -- matter how aria. Good morning guys with a little stuffed up have to excuse my voice this."

" That's -- it was there wasn't a little subdued after the game we've been talking about it all morning you win the game you win it big but it can't be. And they can't be good news from the Rodney Harrison on the Rodney Harrison front."

" There's no doubt it was a bittersweet thing because you thought you played so well. Put such compliments their game and then. Vehicle at all he uses like Rodney Harrison -- the captain of the leader. And -- means so much this team. Global leadership -- important. You know you can purity in that feel terrible for haven't. You know no one is what the rest of his career. And have a and you don't know what you agree to do the experience careers so we'll see what happened the guys that -- directly."

" Met this probably is a better question for some on the defensive side -- touched on briefly the leadership that he brings to this defense. What form does that take itself what what form does it manifest itself is is that attitude is that intelligence is -- coach on the field. Is it you know being as a hard hitter in the fourth quarter as that is the first what did he bring to this football team --"

" I think development that you just rhetoric there. That the -- leadership. What you've -- so locker room is upbeat energy. Of an experienced. Arum the word that would go up play after play and give -- 2% and set an example where. From top to bottom of -- you have to play as --"

" Not I and I know what I read on a couple of different occasions the Bill Belichick and the players by the way said the week of preparation leading up to last night's game was your best and a long time. -- that said. Did you and your teammates the 404 yards of offense coming BBC 257 yards on the ground -- no interceptions no touchdowns and you strive for that the kind of game but coming off the San Diego we did you see this coming last night met in practice."

" You'd like facilities he would -- week but you never really ability -- that gave -- worked real hard this week and ability about it and without. Couple worked -- them we have three report good at practice. It -- up there quarterback."

" Obviously I -- year. You're happy with the wind that you can't be happy with the six sacks Matt do you. You have to wait to see the film to see who's fault the world why you warm and why they they got just so many times that and how do you explain that you were dominant in every way. But they managed to get you a half a dozen times."

" Brett I don't know I haven't confirmed their old -- I'm sure we'll critique it will Pargo was the bombers are vocal America."

" At the football -- jumped out of the bottles -- you get one wish you wish is one of two things you can either throw for three touchdowns and no interceptions. Every game for the rest of your career or. Every game for the rest your career running backs can run for over 250 yards which would you choose. Opposite of what do you think this program which an overwhelming at a throw another masters which -- like massive importance."

" or Iraq 250 he would win the direction that it for a -- broke a protest over here for the rest like her -- Alou and hostile to the Russian."

" We'll have those two things help shoe do you think win more easily be the ability to control the ball on the ground and run it down their throat. Or your ability to get in the hands on three times and not throw picked."

" You know I think that they've both looked -- run earlier both. Compliment each other the run gave opened the the first Patrick gave it. It some pressure off myself but. They gotta respect the fact that in -- run ball. There's -- but the players actually Google a lot of great things or a Republican establishment to do that obviously we're our one might not -- Juror six yard every game but it we can -- people -- the ball up and put put yards -- particular opened their positions and it is a."

" Hey Matt because of the vagaries of the National Football League with the St. louis' you know can rise up and beat them the good teams and just you know David and Goliath. Every single week and nobody really knows what to expect. We began the show this morning we said great effort wonderful stats. You know good news all around except of the injury situation. But what does it mean -- on fourth and I said the Jerry yards and I'm going to ask Matt one question during the 8 o'clock hour and depending on his answer this question this is going to tell me what I might expect going forward and here's the question. On that second quarter touchdown Matt Cassel to Randy Moss in the back of the end zone debated when it at three. Did you intentionally. Throw that fastball. To Randy is back shoulder to keep it away from the defender or that is to happen to go on the absolute perfect spot."

" Doesn't that you were -- it really doesn't the guy had outside -- There and -- a player practiced the if the guys up at Leverkusen in the delicate believe it was so that we work from a bachelor."

" But my guess is then and I have been written about -- if that's true that probably was your favorite play of all the offensive plays fair to say."

" Yeah the first governor mark yeah. There're certain depth because very. Could you could -- Ortiz should go out there. Weren't more of thought I'd give up every ordered -- 200 out of corners. I believe it."

" You know Moss seemed to really be enjoy in this night to see. Is he as helpful for you in practice as he wasn't his game last night -- he. There was some question when Tom Brady went down would Randy Moss beat just is motivated would -- be justice. In this season as before -- seem to be last night is is is that went practice."

" A rent is great players -- great teammate and you know very knowledgeable guy and there obviously there's going to be times where he might get a little frustrated but -- and everybody knows the reason why because he's such a great player that you want the ball. If you look around the history of the NFL and look at all the great players and older receivers that are played. They're very want the ball and the fact is Brady. In works hard every week you practiced these are great he -- on Sundays he wants to come out with the production. Like everybody else. So. In its last race is a great example and cover well and not give it up there on the they're an important part of part of it and been brought up there and do what would you have been."

" Were you guys on the bench at the end of the game we looking up -- the screen of the big board there at you -- sit on the bench did you have a little laugh -- Randy at the end of the game."

" I don't even though almost said he -- I was taught to respect you know this could expect. I don't know what set it up what remember. We're looking up at the ball. -- probably. Just just excited about what we did a very there's -- ignore -- there's going to be some big -- Cabrera simply move or."

" as we observe this football team. From a distance you know we we hear that Maroney goes on the IR before the game. Boris comes in and does a tremendous job he goes down at halftime. Green-Ellis comes in instills in nicely for Ramon -- while it's just you know one running back after the other and it's working tonight. I think most people. Fair to say are surprised to see the rookie grew up there and have that kind of impact after Morris after Maroney. Are arguing your teammates surprise that based on the fact that you see these guys everyday in practice."

" there are bigger victor green who is -- record in them. He's he's -- their job and Eric record awkward moment and you vertical player. He showed a lot a lot of great things in practice and I think that's -- go to work. More confident about going in the late in the game let them go up there revolve if they're. What are some of the top of the -- move -- we'll look like they did it opens up those old lead quarterback -- great opportunities you greater part of it and you that's what you want to see."

" It is no news -- you that every week in the National Football League list of guys who get injured you know could certainly fill out a Pro Bowl roster last night a Cutler gets hurt although -- Try to stay in the game Boss Bailey Champ Bailey Maroney on the -- at a time Harrison Brady's down I guess Ellis Hobbs got nicked the little bit. With the exception of saying well that's part of the game come to accept that. How do National Football League players met reconcile and compartmentalize. The fact the what happened to Rodney or what happened to anyone of these guys Tom Brady can happen at any single moment as issue you know work your ass off for a common goal banging you can change immediately in your low no longer involved."

" They're very very -- all the more reason why he can't take as -- prepared and it continued one point prepare and it. Everybody you gotta go -- it mattered -- perspective you never know when. That record happens never know when maybe it is the right fielder so. That the physical game with a violent game and you have to go out there and understand that. At any given moment -- happened that is the injury could occur so they'll -- the program go up continue to work hard -- There and they enjoy it while while it's there it's going on."

" I think probably don't want to get sacked six times a game -- probably. That's not exactly good for your health what do you think. The coaches will -- from you obviously had a great game but they want to keep upright want to keep -- healthy going forward. You have to get rid of the ball make quicker decisions move quicker run faster I mean what do you have to do to avoid getting hit this often and and and stay healthy."

" Are there are deeply are we did we gotta go back critique themselves when they're interpreter well you know -- Where the problem is -- beat me or at least somewhat somewhere else there. And then you make the corrections incredible or go from there. Good. Never thought -- really well all week and."

" A personal note did to sleep sleep come easier after a 417. Performance were your passer rating of 136 or after a loss to San Diego and they can obviously you're mulling over all the stuff the went wrong against San Diego -- you're also going to. Jacked up and very excited about what happened last night."

" Rarity in relate back in you don't get much sleep and just think it's the the turnover gave excitement. And -- and from the fans that position there's that they bring. And then. It is and you just you don't get much sleep over and that. What are -- itself wherever -- that Diego was well the long one you know person but at least you have some but some good --"

" All right Matt appreciate you get up and -- with -- Patriot money which is now Tuesday congratulations on a great game -- talk the next Monday after St. Louis. Order Matt Cassel joining us on the eight TNT hotline your world delivered."
