Matt Cassel

" Matt Cassel Patriot quarterback. Joining us on the AT&T hotline your world liver that was the most number of first down -- team could. Possibly get theoretically you got eight in that nine minute drive yesterday's ten and number. I guess so -- inaugural event. Oh tennis a hundred you can only go 99 yards against the out on the day. And I and -- almost midnight. Almost. Yeah we've never done this begin and end our interview with question. -- How much of Matt -- improved play can be attributed to a better performance by the offensive line or something that Matt is doing differently now."

" I did because collectible. We're we're better -- the unit. And I become. Continues currently growing up. And we currently valued continued playing in use these things you'd better attitude I think golf but want it done an outstanding job. And a lot of what we've discussed before I think a lot of there -- that we have a -- back up like that a lot of back and be contributed and myself and just trying to run around or do that I picked off one of a great job all year."

" Speaking of running around is very snowballs chance in hell. The Tom Brady gets that first quarter touchdown run in the and so -- get -- before gets the goal line."

" With his blitzer but now. Tommy Tommy -- the guys on the right underestimated feet if -- I think you would or on not a lot."

" We know one wants to see him run you know like when he runs it would hold their breath and you know what. Matt you can to that point you I said this -- if you're good slider I don't know you have had a lot of practice that you do a nice job when you run you seemed to get down at the right point."

" I'm trying to -- forget Vietnam or cook good on."

" Good slider. That was that base more. Or -- that yet you could pop right back up then again in my mind it's yeah if you do that and how come. In simple layman's terms you don't get sacked anymore."

" I don't know I mean we're -- the world went well of the opposite view record or in the ball well. Off the market rate yeah. You know there's required -- you. -- run the ball well so -- puck drop in at the game and we expected to do."

" Are you making quicker decisions."

" Under earlier I think we're over the rough they've been. The running game could help belt and they are truck because it is an abuse -- we're not on. Run the ball really well over half went on and they -- there or will look at a little bit at all who often -- and and --"

" I -- what's the maximum number of check down -- is there are for you in any given play won't be the most were in a particular play. But -- or you mean to go under underneath call or read yet want to read from you know your first you first read your second and third your -- it just fourth -- about the max is --"

" was as you'd go to primaries are good partner you repeat our coverage. In your your second receiver Mike when you're -- out of third receiver and use your back. Use your."

" and economic times do you get the four."

" Whatever Kevin Faulk out of the ball with the a I'm brilliant but then again he might -- or read progression but based on B he spent the that is that the caller what I see I'm might go to a little bit quicker but the guys in here so. He somehow become partners you beat the."

" It last week I ask you this question you dodged it in the politically correct -- who would you prefer to have for the rest of the season if you only have one right wide receiver -- where Welker let me rephrase that with a different. Different kind of question. Who is the more dependable if I get the ball to him I know he'll do the right thing kind of teammate out Welker or Kevin Faulk. "

" Both dependable and they're both. My guys so -- continue to stick to the politically correct answer I would pick one over the other they're both well. Great teammate and current players so it is going to continue to spread all around but well."

" What makes Welker so good."

" Other numbers thing that makes -- and he's just the guys that. You'd love to have operatives gotta love to have on your team in view of the it was because you work so -- that was about it work. He goes out each and every day you're here under 50% whether a walk through you just all of our walkers who got stranded out on -- walker. And -- good -- but regarding --"

" to zero. Did you gonna. Does he want to go deep does he ever. Beg you to you know throw him throw one deep ball -- disease. -- is that even consider ratio."

" this short but if you want to become a deep breath and now -- so. What you have to."

" We're not Fulham news and Welker deep. One of these times little double move a sideline."

" Why are. You bounce our our stuff to -- to go work to sweep this Thursday night. How are -- A map for the seventh time in nine games the Patriots were on the time of possession battle that's six straight by the way including nearly 38 minutes yesterday. In addition the number of plays was in your favor 78 to 43. I'm wondering Matt Cassel in the heat of the battle in the context of the game when you're out there does seem like you're out there all afternoon."

" You know you just go up there and -- certain note that would put together longer I've been here in that we want to do with -- You drop off off the field to argue that. Rob we will in all. Or so that we can they drive go to long drive. That's really the goal. For it off you don't really realize that you're as you're going out they're doing it used kind of going up and -- you. In acute on third down. --"

" It is has there been a more satisfying more efficiently methodical methodically run drive in the 92 yard the took more than nine minutes off the clock yesterday."

" I don't think so though the -- Europe. We're backed up. We got the ball pretty active. And we we converted. Our third down. And for what under up our our partner come back from -- equipment up caught the ball. Whip and go to scorer but it all what do we want thirty yeah ought you know the there's big."

" Pay when when Benjarvis Green-Ellis level for a score the touchdown you came -- the sideline at after those two clock eating sneaks. The did accomplish very much yardage wise we get eight more time off the clock. A we're both designed just to continue to run the clock knowing that you -- probably square one where the other and I thought I read. Belichick -- when you came to the sideline he said great job perfect what was the idea behind those two clock eating sneaks."

" A bigger track we're trying to score but the fact that we didn't score. -- actually work our paper so. So worked well it worked out well we knew we get or down. Down there so we are actually quite well and Maria we felt that their -- we've gone wrong it is Marino."

" It. Does I think generally into this and I'm just wondered at home and and the announcers people are saying. Open Jarvis Green Ellis he hasn't scored you know he's worked hard he's done a lot it be nice to get him a touchdown. Does that ever come up either in the huddle on the sidelines like. Boy I'd really like to get me you know X get this guy a touchdown."

" You'd like escort certainly in any lady you can't sit down and read -- an artist and -- the audio not straight I don't think anybody's. Can play in another gut -- But another go to war but you loved the guy like the observer that a great job. So about all. -- running back went down it was step up executives there and they exited the opportunity. And really capitalize up. And then scored a -- it is -- posters."

" What do you guys column I don't believe you actually call law firm the announces -- season Newman among the players is law firm. Do you call him."

" I've never heard that in order in life."

" What what do you call you can't column the whole thing it's just too much gone Benny."

" There -- corporate Benjarvis. I've -- is it my imagination or are we seeing more of Vrabel on offense that we have in the past -- in my recollection as we've seen him down on the goal line in either blocking a run blocking situations or maybe an occasional you know flare out. Into the -- to to throw -- to a as a tight end we're seems horribly in the middle field now short yardage situations are using him what they have in the past."

" Or you've actually part of our goal impacted so when -- On third down situations. There -- third and short situations like that no amount of Michael at Packard or trying to get there there is spotlight so they'll come out at any point not to go."

" Tell us how hard it is to get ready for game when you have only three days some how -- accelerated his everything how. How chaotic visited practice and meetings -- that you only get these three days I mean you got to heal up dude don't you."

" got to fuel up in the there's going to be in the training room and it worked out in the treatment and and then now it up but you gotta root for these guys that are all of them and the nice thing about wearing the depth -- I would definitely. And the they'll have a short week so like points in the -- we -- in the at least prepare for a week the bulk of the on the culture. Our guys will be up for the talent and preparation different it in there well well all the work that we need to him do it will be great ago."

" I assume that's a slight advantage that you didn't have to travel yesterday and you don't have to travel on Thursday -- they only put half the game yesterday that's good point."

" Not yeah all of that I think that that definitely yeah a pretty big you know trouble but. That the -- in the amount of preparation. And what we do from and so it is everybody will be ready to go would be great environment there's."

" If if this were high school or college there won't be -- they hate the Jets -- those that ask does that happen in the pros or is it. More professional where it's just another opponent do you feel the you know the rivalry in the in the hatred in the animosity between these two teams anymore."

" There's no doubt the rivalry in you know that a big division. I ways. And everybody has earned. Them a lot we we agree we. And there is great and you know their practice but he knew it would -- game. And going into the week is. You know we know just to -- in there in the well we've got -- in -- walker and it."

" It -- that first drive yesterday when you hit Welker toward the sideline for 21 yards down the seventeenth. Were you aware. That he was not in bounds or at least -- with a child eligible call. Because obviously -- office look like you've got to the line of scrimmage very quickly I guess they tried to throw the red flag to challenge but. The officials didn't see it -- were you aware that it was challenged bowl and we trying to hurry up and get that play called run."

" I didn't know there was talk will look I think the vote what they've heard of the way you know it was ago. And so we got out and got up on her optimal to. Our football baby particle."

" Gloria alright so socially and with -- another email questions from bill in Rhode Island. What does Matt Cassel winds suitable what do Matt Cassel throws for 10000 yards. What happened to Tom Brady can only come back at 90% what do Matt Cassel the league MVP what happens it Gisele leaves Tom for Madcast could have yes old amid a lot of good things might happen on the road -- what happens -- all that stuff."

" You'd have to view when it happened you know -- has no bearing on the week. Well one week at a aren't all that stuff night that the article there that others are -- want to play. -- Well good. I don't you know of course but. You know ha aren't -- actually. And you think there -- reality. Of anything other yeah."

" So you what is what is your wife the one export was she -- the -- the ball yeah."

" Our -- whether you. In."

" What if you -- what are your kids they want to like just played piano or become. You know scientists of summer -- and discovers that because you're going to have some some athletes and thank and."

" That would record. Our partner. I know the answer the spot a question -- but -- it's come up a number of times as you play as improved. As the team continues to rally and play well with UN behind you. Could you look somebody in the eye and tell them that shadow of doubt you have a lot even for a second. Maybe -- fall asleep at night. What this kind of opportunity and the success that might be ahead for you. Might do for your football career going down the road and you -- your family's financial status for the rest your life."

" I really haven't about the financial under. Artery. Villa have been what -- have an opposite point because he's norm these are our. You know on -- healthy and I don't I don't play significant role in the season. In despair at the -- report -- there's like acres and have a coach Mike -- though they're conducting your vote in Intermedia partners the players play well great athlete great players. On the street is -- still really. Good luck to -- was real well I have the opportunity to do it. But think about battle ought to take a look -- You know up there do."

" But -- my guess is you have -- a heck of a time you have the time your life and this is a lot better. And play and back up to any of the three guys who played back up to a -- wondering is the appetite there what would you be okay with but uncomfortable. Going back to that role having tasted this kind of fun and this kind of success."

" Well it's on the play you know. Quarterback -- the editor. That's what you want to do you want to you want to place you want to give up there you. You'll continue to do it can't go. I don't know what what the future or. You aren't what I'm doing right now and I think."

" Have you heard from Tom lately and if so how's he doing how's -- feeling."

" on the do well. He's recovered well there are things that are --"

" and -- back the way you plan to come back. Probably in. The play by next week what the post season -- got -- of it that."

" The Spirit week. -- break at this week and we have to hurry up and get ready for Thursday but now on to wake up Friday morning and talk with -- W bogeyed a couple of days of the week and off we'll talk next Monday turn up. You got Albert Gerut and -- I know you you almost on the legitimate when you said that like you really meant it. Our -- Matt Cassel with us and tell me ATT outline your world delivered."
