" I care and a big show at 6177790850. Toll free 888525. 0850. That's our phone number we'll get the -- calls in just a little bit but it's time for our Friday chat with the left tackle. Your New England Patriots Matt Light in order to be referred to a stop -- joins us live on the phone lines mr. light Oreo."

" I'm good I'm good how are you."

" What you're all right. Is it -- it's -- all over television the demise of the patriots is that does that does that happen dominant."

" Well you know I think you know the way we look at it there is. Is it its its its one week one that we wish were -- a lot of things better. It's one game where we obviously were on the same page. Too many mistakes and whatever to get done but. You know we won't see him at of those that we've got a lot of good football players in the locker room -- guys that have. You know fought through a lot over the years so nobody's going to tell that --"

" A favor and tell us what's involved not just. The receivers with a quarterback but the offensive line. With the quarterback and why does it take. A while for the timing and we heard Tom talk about this this past week were for a lot of the players talk about it as well why does it take awhile for the timing. To evolve with the with the softens."

" Well -- you know I don't know exactly. Yeah I don't I don't know exactly what they do -- the wide receiver quarterback position but I know enough that that these guys. These it takes to -- a lot of practice. It take auto wraps. The warping it remembers well. That things aren't that maybe these things change. Every single week the game plan on our -- being you know whatever defects were up against so you know you really have to be able relies on. Maybe they did the past or. Some looks that we've seen -- in years past and if you don't have that relationship you have been around that long but you Leo world wide have a lot of brokers have a lot of things go into that so I can easily see where. The longer you're out there the more your rounded of the you do will be that makes sense but Favre but not really the case you know we've. We -- a place for -- week we shouldn't we shouldn't have as many. Mysteries upfront that we should be government handle these things that they Loretta so. With that that we could do a better job upfront and collectively as an offense. And go out their score points to finish drives in the red red zone and on all the little things that could be a good football player."

" Or -- of understanding the experience angle that let you talk about. Oh how much of difference wasn't for the and I hate to use the freeze skilled players supposed to with the white boards in the and move. Of the -- Congressman's."

" You know what to do to promote bit I don't I don't think that really patted me. Any negative effect llamas are mean -- we're nobody uses -- to utilize that obviously we had. You know some. Some some bad penalties. Who was the -- games and and whatnot but would really attribute. Any of that could be. Because -- the white board or orbit the wrist bands of all that's government we practiced that all week. We get good looks that it -- work. The way we exhibited to -- is gonna want an excuse better."

" Vegas -- the ball now hundred times the first two weeks run the ball 41 a belief is that challenging view is alignment. You pass blocking that often transition into that run blocking."

" No it's. I wouldn't say it any harder. But. You know I think -- that we we all recognize that once you become one dimensional and for whatever reason. You know if you look at last week game week. We didn't have a war a success throwing the ball in the second half. For one reason or another -- a lot of that came down the penalties are crucial times and and we put ourselves in burden long consecutive long when you do that you become one dimensional epic we all know that. Once that happens then that's in the contenders back and really come off the ball come afterward that women don't get the total also from that standpoint. Speaking you'll -- thought that --"

" how different. Is what you guys are facing defensively this week how different is it. From last week I would think Abraham will probably you'll see an awful lot of fun and it's a guy that. You've seen a lot of before in the media in the division but how different is this going to look this week."

" Jovial lot -- be a lot different. These guys do what they do they do very well they've got -- very aggressive. Front they've got. A really good there are group linebacker as a flyer make a lot of plays. But it's not going to be the same. Style which you saw. New York last week these guys lined up but didn't they're their basic you know -- look. You know they're gonna have no linebackers. Pretty much in the bubbles. Move more on the little bit mobile do some things definitely that the -- problems with with -- whatnot but they're not going to be. All walking around and try to confusion overload -- and all those things. They they have some really good players that play it straight up and you know that they kind of -- on the one on one matchup."

" There -- so -- anybody may have seen that people around him might be familiar with further their own unique -- style."

" They're they're pretty much -- billion each -- I mean it's. The you'd there's it's hard for me draw comparisons quality two teams meet up with yet to speak of when we look at that we put it down for an individual basis and not so much. There scheme although that is a big part of that. But the other big guys they have over there are deep sense are pretty unique in them that much accepted their play with a lot of energy in. And and they do have the field they're very good what they do."

" You -- talking about all the mistakes that you guys made last week during the game. When you guys sit down you're watching all of this stuff. What does that mood like what does the atmosphere like amongst the team when you sit there and obviously coaches is chastising you're saying you blew this when you blew that one what are you doing here. When you know this this is why we get this penalty. Or reported those moods like you're a veteran team you've been -- before and here you are you screwed up when you know."

" Yes you know it's pretty matter of fact I mean look if if you're out there to make a bonehead play here. You'd you just don't get the job done become the sidelined its its its not like you don't know it. -- You just which you have to talk about to get recognizing gonna get on the same page. With with what what -- what they're shown on the cards in and you know we draw a lot of stuff on the sideline. To make sure that everybody understands it because what you see on the right side. That they might not pitching yet on the left side so they just comes down to communicate to be to be outlook yet they get -- no doubt. And and you get big give -- hardly put -- in the days. We're not over there -- discussions. Just to hear ourselves talk article for the -- to figure themselves targets -- the week to correct that and go back out there play better."

" And how much of those adjustments and how valuable the at halftime totals to have adjustments. And how valuable those those just wanted to talk about. The twelve minutes you have it -- at halftime of boosters for your office."

" You know they're big and in I think buildup. It was so the short period of time what what you really have there's as a chance to really sit down and go through all the different looks that they've given you in the first half. And then you know you category over the things that have -- gone well. And so look I think that we need to correct and you make a few adjustments and at that point you're back on the field and it's game time. I think we've got to do a better job. Outcome and out and being ready to go for the second happening. You know we we always start. We're really thought about start fast. And then the importance to do -- especially on the road in you know we didn't really do that that game and so they come -- the second have put them in the ball. We need to go out there have been drive we didn't do that you know so let's look at all those type of thing that we need to improve on."

" It goes a lot of young guys that defensive side of the ball -- people thought this office with Kerry and they would come out and gets up the points. And the first couple weeks probably isn't gonna smooth as you would like is that any added pressure to you guys as a group to -- their performance try to cover that defense utility kind of jelled together."

" You know I don't look at it that way I think you know I recovered -- of field. What we've got one job -- that to go out and simple points in the board and in what we need to do. Is there's just that every single guys finish plays better. And what we like we've been talking about when we get the red zone. We're gonna come I was seven you know we we can't settle for field goals. And then and then once we do that but it does change the game. Quite a bit when you when your plane from Haddon. And India have the luxury of of -- scored -- up when your opponent it really changes what you do. Both offensively and defensively so you know it it's it's it's critical -- the drugs are faster."

" And we talked about this last week. How Brady came out in the buffalo game and say guys were gonna win it. Just so that we can look at his percentages you're meeting for -- say that that last game -- he. And in the."

" You know our."

" Which is try to keep number straight --"

" Yeah well -- for all you statisticians. And and mind readers we don't -- you know I think we always you have to have that attitude number one. I wouldn't say just Tom that that that walks and a total feels as though. We have a chance to recover on the field I think epic that every guy. Out there feels that way in I think you have to yet they have confidence and everything to do. But it definitely gives. They brought their become so we knew what to make as many mistakes we did and -- that's all part as well but. You. You know let them last week when were were trying to forget about that move forward. We want we want we'll dip back into any of the predictions."

" Is it best to forget about editors are best to remember it and say bleep we don't want the state athletic that this week we gotta pay it we gotta wake up."

" Yes well you yeah it's and it's in your mind no doubt every week we have Adam and -- on Monday. You know made a lot of corrections then. You have at a pretty good week. This week probably that this games so but there's a point where you just move -- in argued you gotta get ready for next opponent got to put that won't be engine. And just build on and have a better week of preparation."

" I Matt's got Leo celebrity shootout it's coming up Tuesday this coming Tuesday the twenty I've taken name. To keep kids on target and you can get information by going to a -- website Matt Light 72. Dot com. And it'll give you all the information who's gonna have a lot of patriot -- teammates it'll be there to be slow slower surprises celebrities as well.

" Yeah we've got a couple spots left and they did this or that you -- this event and it's been it has been a lot of fun you know it's one of those unique events. You know people come out that -- that another shot before by the time they leave. When George told the more relaxed -- things the relaxed at that had a good time.
