nothing nothing in the shower all right cuz you know the shower story I was just getting the clarification you know the shower I know there's a lot of shower stories that's why I was just getting it

thanks thanks for having it we got to introduce you to jack he he's on our show we got Kyler Jack what's up brother thanks for coming on today we got everyone here why are you so jacked I wish I was I gotta get on whatever the [ __ ] you're on H grank grank fit weights grank Fitness weights grank fit definitely hanging around you guys bagels and cream cheese see we're teaching couple couple pieces over there yeah what game did we choose grank rob you I remember once Rob got he goes you know you call me grank all my friends call me Rob dude can you stop calling me grank remember that not really I just accepted it after a couple years I was like all right my name's grank now it's grank like 100% because growing up my brother Dan was actually grank I was never called grank my whole entire life not even not even in college I was big Robin College actually and then everyone just started calling me grank once I got to the NFL and I thought it was really weird at first cuz my older brother Dan was called grank throughout his whole entire life and then after like a year or two I was like ah screw it I'm grank now I accepted it I mean I accepted it the whole time but like it was just weird because my brother was grank the whole time but you know I took it over bro I took it over baby it's not it's not just a perfect name for you I remember when we drafted you I was going into my second year and Billy O'Brien told the story about your draft evaluation and like I guess it was the story where they asked you for what one like your biggest adversity in your life at coming up to this point granted he just had like severe back surgery like the year before didn't even play and what's what was the most adverse situation that you've ever had I told him it was my freshman year in high school uh I was trying out for the baseball team and I went into the batting cage inside in the in the school gym and I literally swung and whipped 20 Baseballs in a row yeah and I had to figure out how to come back from that that you were in a slump right I was in I was in the biggest slump ever I mean I was going from football right to uh basketball and then to baseball so now I haven't swung a bat in what eight months or whatever and I'm going in the gym and they're like oh grank you know younger brother of Chris gronowski uh he's you know great football player but he's going to be on the varsity baseball team I'm all hyped up and then I I show up to the first practice and I literally whiffed 20 swings in a row I didn't hit the ball once the first day and then what happened and then um I absolutely sucked for about another week I was like what's going on I'm not seeing it I haven't swung the baseball bat in Forever confidence is down confidence is super down and I didn't really give a [ __ ] I was like I'm still better than everyone here I'm just not showing it yet so then you go down spring break you go down to Florida they take the team down to Florida you play versus all the Florida teams so you know be my brothers went through the whole program you know the whole baseball program so they're like all right well Rob your older brother Chris is going to be there so we're just going to bring you you know you can hang out you can practice with us you're going to be on Varsity eventually we're going to keep you on JV so then I was like yeah that's cool like you know my whole family is going down there so they brought me around to go to the practices and everything and then finally they put the Chumps in uh this is like the fourth game and they put all the Chumps in that you know that aren't going to play this year so they threw me in see what I got and then you you know what do I do first first AB bat bases are loaded what do I do I hit a grand slam baby grand salami just like that what do they they they put me at first base I have like five Darren poopa Scoops right off the bat in the first game and they're like what the what the [ __ ] like I'm like yeah I was hitting baseballs inside a batting cage right after uh a football season after getting the crappy out of me and after a basketball season after dunking on 15 fools like I wasn't ready to play baseball yet and then we get out to Florida you put some competition in front of me baby gr salami and four Darren poopa in the first game ever since then I started every single game at first base about at 444 that year I was like all I had all these uh honors you know as a freshman and then my junior year I absolutely sucked that baseball gy and only bat at 240 and and that and and this is the story mind you guys that he he's they painted the picture Bilo told me the story he's like he sat grank sat down for like 10 minutes really think thinking about what's the most adverse thing I've had ever overcome in my life just had back surgery that he didn't play his junior year in college from and he comes up and it was when he was in a slump his freshman year of baseball yes that is correct and that's just not all about that visit I mean I was so sick of that visit dude it wasn't just the visit were you sleeping just wasn't the visit to the Patriots so what I went on like a little tour like you go I visited 12 different teams it's kind of like you're going on these recruiting visits to each team cuz they want to get to know you the New England Patriots were the last ones on the list and bro I was sick I was flying from Denver to Jacksonville to freaking Baltimore meeting with every team and I was so sick of it and you know you're putting like kind of a front on as well and I was literally so sick of I go I want to be outrageous here I need to have some fun with it I remember I was kind of hung over too feeling like crap all these flights I went out and party a couple of the nights too so I wasn't even feeling like myself so I was like how do you get back to normal you just you just become outrageous and I show up bro I was so tired first thing I do is fall asleep in ny's office yeah Bill bich heard all about it he couldn't believe it and then I go into the interview session and Billy O'Brien draws a play up and then he races on the board he's like all right can you you name the what the wide receivers did like rename their route and what their responsibility was I was like bro I have no clue I couldn't even think and then he's like he's like what do you do I was like you just throw me the [ __ ] ball Billy oh I'll make some guys miss I'll run over some people he's like he's like but you don't know the play I was like I don't need to know the play you throw me the ball like that's basically how our interview went and then I literally walked out of there called Drew Rosen house I said this team is either going to take me or they're [ __ ] laughing at me and I give no [ __ ] cuz I'm over this whole process so what happens New England Patriots trade up for me for the 42nd pick in the NFL draft in 2010 in selectman I looked around the table I said I told you they were going to take me but Bilo so going back to where we started that is grunk right there that whole thing and and they built up like I remember them talking about you the coaches saying like yeah man you're gonna love this kid he's [ __ ] just awesome he had like you explained the whole thing that you just explained and like that was like oh my God what like doesn't happen in New England you know what I mean and grank kind of from your little story right there you can kind of portray that you're not a smart football player like but you were like brilliant like they would explain that like don't think that grank didn't know his [ __ ] plays this guy you coached him once on one thing he never had to say it again like he was like one of the most football intelligent guys I knew yes I mean at that time when I was doing the interview I was beat down I was sick of it so I couldn't really recall you know the play after he showed it to to me and then also I did struggle a little bit though my rookie year with the Playbook I actually would have probably started every single game from the beginning my first eight games I only was playing about 15 to 20 plays a game if you can recall that and then finally boom The Playbook hit I mean it was a tough Playbook I mean in college I literally think I had like 15 plays and I lined up in the same spot every single play and I get to New England and man let me tell you that Playbook was outrageous and it's not just the Playbook it's the Personnel groups you're playing wide you're playing F exactly you know what I mean it's Wheels you guys got to flop like it it was it was definitely tough it was definitely a challenge and the [ __ ] formations there's so many goddamn formations it drove me crazy like I said in college I had one formation I lined up in the same spot every single Play I'm Not line every single play I get to New England what 65 different formations yeah actually probably 150 different formations but then we narrowed it down to about 65 dude my head was spinning all over the place and finally just clicked you know once I got it under control about week 10 remember I scored that touchdown versus the Chicago Bears versus Brian eracer oh yeah uh what was that Panther route where I had to just get big right at the goal line and then Tom was going to throw it low and then uh we hit it in practice at Friday then we hit it in the game that Sunday and since then I was starting every single play that's when you took the league for notice when you manhandled him kind of I mean eracer was one of the he was the best linebacker he was the guy in the league at that time gronis little like this not little by any means it was just you know rookie comes in Bop gets physical with them that was the coaching point that that was that was Rob's coaching point a lot a lot of his routes the coaches would say just Rob just get physical with them yes that's true and then it got so out of control remember that one year I freaking body slammed uh travius White because I was getting physical and then everyone else just started grabbing me and they were pulling me down shoulder pads like grabbing me all over the place and then finally versus the Buffalo Bills when travius white grabbed me three times elbowed him go pull up that play he pulled me three times and then also I was trying to get my incentives as well so he screwed me I was I had to get like 300 more yards that would have like Juiced me up another 20 yards and it it just made me mad bro and I was like finally over this getting held and every time I was a little bit physical they were throwing the flag on me I was like how I just got held 50 times this game now you're going to throw the flag on me and finally I lost it people's elbow baby literally literally let's see this real quick okay let's watch it those players were scared of me after he's lucky though I didn't I let up at the very end though I let up at the very end I'm telling you right when I was going down I was like oh [ __ ] I shouldn't do this and let like let up like I could have went boom like into the ground I let up but let's watch ready I'm coming in hold P me pull again and then hold me and then flag flag gr yeah and guess what I didn't see Philip Dorset touch him either so I was going to have an excuse like I was just making sure he was down I didn't want him to get up and run for it but Phil door set should have never touched him you screwed me Phillip old door set oh so what do you been up to these days you know I just love to do activities um you know pickle ball basketball lift once in a while run some Sprints for fun because it's just in my blood you know got to stay active uh commercials Lot commercials yeah commercials are fun Ralphie yeah Ralphie love to hang out with Ralphie you got rocky right around the corner behind us Rocky's the [ __ ] man I love Rocky he's a sweet dog yeah I can just tell Rocky and Ry look at him right over there he's tucked up they would love each other what a sweet dog I love dogs like that and we we just became teammates again yes we did we just became teammates uh this will be my third third year with Fox with the pregame show and you just signed on this year so it's a pleasure to have you Julian you know we were teammates for what nine years and now we're teammates again so hopefully this lasts for quite some time it can last for however long we want it to last baby as long as we want I'm excited for it the fox pregame shows check it out me and Jules we're going to be analyzing our face off just faces off on analyzations right so tell us about the game we picked yes so we picked the two in uh the 2014 season week 11 the Patriots versus the Colts this is when Jonas Gray had that Breakout game over 200 yards four touchdowns and it was the game I threw the guy out of the club now we got to get some background on this this wasn't just like people don't realize I absolutely hate the Colts bro why do you hate the Colts no with no respect for them I don't know every time we went in there they always amping [ __ ] up acting like they were they were the absolute best the the best team out there they had Payton Manny we had Tom Brady so I just we're we're we're all for Tom Brady not painting Manny so at that moment actually at all moments of course you know that's our guy that's our guy 100% fed us and uh exactly we that's why we can have these cameras around because we can afford him because Tom fed us Tom fed us yeah thank you Tom Payton Manning wasn't feeding us no yeah he was our rival he was rival and I don't know they just they just always talk garbage in the media too the weak of the game Mike Adams I think he had some Clips out here that year talking and this game I swear led to the deflate gate they needed to find some BS answer of why they kept losing to us every single year year in and year out and they weren't just losing to us we were absolutely pounding that ass every single time we played them this year in the AFC Championship we played him right was it this and that was defl and that was the flake gate so I'm telling you this game L up to it what was the score at halftime no I think it was a year after May was this it was this year it took two years to do the investigation it then that was so that was so stupid bro I'm telling you they just came up with that because we were whooping them so bad every game what was the score at halftime Jack I believe it was z z in the uh AFC Championship let me double check I I remember and then that's when the whole deflate thing came and then like they put in their other balls or whatever this that and then we went on to waack some what was it was it 31 Z I mean we ran the ball again what 55 times that game we probably only had like 150 yards passing yeah like it was 177 and then we outscored him 28 nothing in the second half 28 Garrett blunt bowled out ran all over him he had that big kickoff too didn't he have a kickoff return that was was that g that game what year was this let me double check 2014 it was 2014 it was in 2015 you're right it was the same year we we won the Super Bowl Seattle oh my gosh man these memories so also back to the Sergio Browns so then he goes to the Colts and then this game dude here's the background of it if it wasn't even Sergio I would have still done the same thing but it it wasn't because I didn't dislike Sergio it was just because he talked the whole entire game and anyone that talks [ __ ] to me I have a trigger that that like all of a sudden I just go into like the hawk beast mode beast mode like I'm going in the beast mode it doesn't matter who's talking [ __ ] to me if it's my teammate if it's a coach that's why I love Billy o man he made me get in the beast mode cuz he would talk [ __ ] to me yeah on the sidelines I like that [ __ ] I'm going to show him I'm goingon to break 10 tackles and come back to the silon and be like yeah you see that billio you couldn't do that you just called the play you know that's that's what was going through my mind but uh he was talking every single play and then finally Beast mod just kicked in I was like I have to take this guy out and boy did you and did I I threw him right out of the club and that's why I went right to the sideline and I was like Bill he just keeps on yapping and yapping and yapping yapping and yapping even on plays that were unnecessary to yap on and that's why it went down thing is coach coach didn't even get mad at you because you drove him literally to the sideline like 30 yards like any and like that kind of turned bill on lowkey he loved it it turned he led it even though there was a penalty which we he hates the penalty penalties and he didn't even bring it up because he so much BR he didn't bring it up and it was a good thing we were winning by that was like to put us up by like 21 I think to give us a a a control of the game so he loved it lowy I loved it that he loved it though that made me happy we'll get back more into the game but we have a segment where we go back on the date of the game and on this November 16th 2014 number one movie was Guardians of the Galaxy you ever see that they all right never seen it it's isn't it with that big ass guy yeah he's kind of like you Bautista yeah right oh man no he not like me he way bigger dude that no Batista I don't know man Batista's bro that's a movie you're real no but in person dude that dude's huge he's a fighter as well right is he yeah he's a fighter man I think let me see no I ain't messing with him I don't care number one I'm not if it was a football field one-on-one with pads on I'll go vers him 100% I mean that's that's totally different skill but no I would mess with him though that dude's massive bro he is pretty big he way bigger than me not way bigger but he's 54 though oh all right maybe I will number one song was Shak It Off by Taylor Swift we were just talking about Taylor Swift earlier today yeah she's a beast you know my I my daughter loves Taylor Swift right now I took her go to the concert yeah I took her and her little two friends it was awesome uh Weeden boys Whiz Khalifa that was like such a a anthem for every football team Jack what what do you got there was some talk that it was like the Steelers Anthem then it was the Cowboys and it was the Seahawks I got to look into that though yeah everyone keeps on talking what was 2014 like for Roberto oh what was I like I was I was out of control bro 2014 was a great year it really was uh actually it was a year I was coming back from an injury so I just wanted to prove myself so bad I was coming back from like a back surgery a knee surgery and a forearm surgery everyone was writing me off I think I won comeback player of the year that year as well yeah yeah I remember I had a slow start cuz of my knee it was swelling like a little bit after that the first two games and that was the Cleveland yep injury and it was kind of like I have to prove myself it was pissing me off everyone was runting me off they were all talking [ __ ] and I loved it bro like I said it triggered me the beast mode and uh I was just out of control you know looking the party after every game looking to freaking say some crazy comments on the plane ride home talk talk garbage to each other those were the best years right there those were so fun I mean that was it was like we were young we were still having like cuz then once we got older we start we didn't go out as much you know you didn't go out we were you get older it gets harder you can't [ __ ] do it exactly that's when it wasn't hard going out talking garbage doing anything you want being invincible and and life's completely changed now because now you're like Fitness grunk yeah you know love Fitness I mean it's hard to toss people out of the club 247 people always think that like you still just go out and party no drunk never I mean I love to have a great time no doubt about it I mean dude we partied so hard back in the day though too like remember us on that golf cart and where and N Tucket with fwi fagawi weekend we got so much trouble though for that because yes what I you had a a surgery I think it was my forearm and no was it and then I had a foot yes we were both getting pulled we were in the back of a what was we in the back of a golf cart and people were filming us and then we weighed so much and I think the people in the front got off the golf cart and when they got off the golf cart the front two wheels went up in the air and we fell right onto the ground and like face planted and the crazy thing about it is we had no clue that we even did that until we saw the video on bar stool 4 days later and the caption of bar stool was not really sure we want our star wide receiver and tight end acting like this in fagawi but we love him for it and I was like that's why I love bar stool they're sticking up for us bro you remember how mad bill was oh man you [ __ ] [ __ ] can't like Jesus Christ can you guys just stay out of the the headlines headlines yeah yeah you guys aren't even practicing right now you can't even go on the field and you're acting like drunk ID idiots I for we of course we are we're young and dumb I would not change a thing bro imagine if we didn't do that now and we try to do it and we try to do it now it be it would be hard to do it now we did it when we could yeah that's the best part about it we did it when we could that was such a fun trip that F fun trip did did you pull it up do you have that it's online somewhere dude let's look at it dang look how young we look in all these videos thanks for watching the fumble you know no your Memorial Day weekend was lit when Justin Timberlake tweets you to compliment on your dance moves yeah I'm talking about grank he spent the weekend with Julian Edelman partying in N Tucket here's a glimpse into their weekend Edelman let us know exactly oh that's Tom's but I thought it was mine jealous of Tom took a beer and pour it all over look at us dude we were Maniacs you're pouring a beer I'm front row the concert gr made Patriots fans little nerv when he attemped to theit and craw on the Flor at the same time this was two months before training camp Bill we're training we're stretching flash here we go oh there it is oh that's what happened oh that's what happened but no worries they were okay enough to dance to Justin Timberlake on stage later that night which is what I don't remember him being there yeah that's the grank move right there yeah oh dude we used to dance our face off I swear that made us uh better players though CU we were doing so many different type of type of movements yes callisthenics it was our cardio we were dancing for 4 hours straight and we burned off all the alcohol while we were dancing too that's why we were always ready to go when we showed up oh my God people don't realize gron you grank was larger than life when like after these this year and like you know when he first got there I remember when he first got there we went out to a club so F he's a rookie and we're walking and there's this big ass dude no one no one in Boston knew who he was and he just starts dancing just like he did right there and there's a a platter of shrimp walking by to go to a table grank grab a handful of the shrimp and just starts eating it he's like dude these are the best shrimp ever and like no they're like yelling at him like he almost got kicked out no I pulled it off though the first time she had no clue that I stole the shrimp cuz the platter was like up here and I went like that and I start eating it you were mind blown that I did that I was mind blown and then fast forward a like two months later he became like Larger than Life we would go to we would go to like concerts and stuff and people would find out grank was in like the van and they would get around the concert or the van and start shaking it scary I remember the situations was that a Red Sox game or a concert yeah it was a concert I think it was so crazy this is when I'll tell a story this is when I knew it it was getting out of control it really wasn't my rookie year it was after my rookie it was the second year of of being in the league so you know how we always did those like Friday night dinners sometimes we had niik kavii you know our our player coach yeah you know making sure everything goes right what is the that called in The Godfather the guy who's like the conary conary that's what he was around the lock Lo so we've so it's like week five now you know we I've been going out after my rookie year like only some people noticed me in the club and stuff like in Boston like going to the bars like I could go around anywhere after my rookie year but second year I all right I got like five touchdowns already it's like three games and uh we go out to a spot in Rhode Island and then from that dinner we go out to this club I think it was called like the hot spot in Rhode Island or something the hot place and uh we walk in and then that's the day that changed my life I was like oh crap this is getting out of control we walked in the whole place just went bizarre and then we put our sou right in the corner it was like it was kind of like that was when Jersey Shore was huge and we walked in I was like what the heck this is like Jersey Shore people walking in and then we get the little little section in the corner and I was like what's going on everyone's flipping out like fist pump with us I'm pouring out shots and this is a Friday night before one of our games my second year and then we had to leave after like 35 minutes I was like all right this is getting too out of control so I was like holy crap I was like I think my life has changed and I thought it was the coolest moments of my life as well dude he was larger than life after his rookie year and I'm talking the first time I met him people like who's this [ __ ] big ass dude stealing shrimp from this goddamn plate like and then fast forward a year and he's [ __ ] he was like the Beatles bro in in Boston grank was it was insane it was fun dude I would not change a thing no it was I would not change that was a great City to play for dude that was the best if you got to think about it like as far as being a Pro Sport town like the red we went to [ __ ] we watched the Red Sox win a World Series we watched the Bruins win a a World Cup or a championship I was there early when when the Celtics did it in 2010 or 98 it was 2008 right when they got it I went to those games bro I would not change a thing man it was the best times of our life and the best part about it the whole city of Boston the whole area of New England hands down the best the best sports town in I would say the whole world I played in Tampa you know we went on the road to play in other cities I've been you know in Europe to go to soccer games and stuff I'm telling you hands down New England is the best area for any Pro Sport sports team out there in America and the cool thing about it is it's not just Boston for us our team was New England so we hit those five states New Hampshire Vermont yes Rhode Island six Connecticut Massachusetts M Maine some New York a little bit you know some parts of New York I always call Connecticut half New York half m i don't even consider Connecticut as New England they so they say new Connecticut's one one of the states that are part of New England and that just kind of throws me off yeah I'm like no it's not like that's not New England like but you get it's weird you'll have some it's F it's really [ __ ]

happen it's a heated environment and like we got to blame something and coaches always blame technology every time always blame the technology when you'd be like uh watching film and God forbid like something wasn't wrong what did you hear Jared Jared it's not it's not working multi-billion dollar Corporation we can't get our [ __ ] film right the forward button's not working oh I got the pause button broke it was so crazy coach just love to hammer technology they do they sure do Clowney was the first overall pick he was a beast for a while Beast bro athletic a freak and then where where he is he still in the league uh yeah he just signed with the team he was with the Browns I think uh Baltimore Baltimore yeah he just signed with Baltimore how old is he let me see he got to be in like his 10th year I mean if it's 2014 here you're a math guy he's 30 you want to know what makes special is he's so explosive yeah like boom he's right off the line didn't he get hurt though he got hurt a couple times couple times but he was a he was a problem for a while yes he was uh obj won rookie of the year he didn't even play in his like first five games and he had like a thousand yards he was balling he catch he got famous off that the catch wasn't his rookie year was it I thought it was his second year in the league was it second year second year or rookie year yeah it was his second year but he was a baller dude he was balling with the Giants man how do you think he's going to doing with the Ravens this year I think he'll have a decent year decent yeah decent not like his second year when he was balling balling ball he's gonna have you know 80 80 receptions maybe a thousand yards right around there eight touchdowns six to eight touchdowns that's a good year that's a great year especially for Lamar because they already have that Mark Andrew is one of my favorite tight ends yes he is he's a is he not a [ __ ] complete tight end right now he's a complete tight end he blocks he can catch and he kind of like he's he's the spark of the offense for Baltimore without him they have no chance he for the last he's been holding them for the last few years what do you got Jack it was his rookie year rookie year Rie year yeah wow and then he got Nam dropped by Drake remember that yeah I reach back like one three like remember that yeah yeah that's that's wow man that makes his rookie year that much more special we won the Super Bowl that's the best part about you that was the best part of that year yes 100% that's was this that's the Super Bowl Club bro we entered the Super Bowl Club the first one was pretty special 14 what are you reading over there gr I'm reading your Tweet I'm sorry bro what is my tweet H too grank you look like a fighter H they say oh you play

that oh man what were you saying though I was reading but you were saying something before that I don't know I was trying to read my Tweet but I couldn't read my Tweet oh we were talking about the first one being the sweetest oh yeah oh it really was though we lost the one versus the Giants in 2011 that and if you didn't get hurt we would have dominated that I know man I know [ __ ] Eli ah but it's all right cuz then we won this one and once you get in that Super Bowl club man that felt good felt good I mean because you never experienced it exactly and we were always you know I was always

knew how to coach against them yeah he knew their he knew their strengths he knew their weaknesses and we just attacked them everywhere we could you know it one thing is I felt like we always ran the ball down their throat we ran the ball down their throat ran it we got a guy off the street no no no disrespect to Jonas Gray and he went for 204 tugs and this remember this was ridiculous this this this game we were kind of on a uh weren't we didn't we lose a couple weeks before or something this was the Trent dfur it's over Kansas City Chief season oh started two and two the season that year then went on a five-game win streak oh and dude you were going after Trent all the time I loved it was dildo they're just not good enough Trent [ __ ] dildo get the [ __ ] out of here old dord we was I going at him publicly yeah you I remember after a couple of the games you be like yeah TR Trent D for you were you I remember what you said I remember you're going after him someone was going after him I'm pretty sure it was you yeah I loved it I just went after him secretly in my mind but now I just really went after him yeah Tren dildo yeah I'm looking at a CBS news headline Julian Edelman calls Trent D for embarrassing see I told you it was you going after him but I remember that dude he just wanted to talk garbage I mean we did have everyone wanted clickbait yeah he did we did have that terrible game versus Kansas City Chiefs what was it uh we got blown out Monday Night Football bro blown blown out 4114 our ass I remember that and that that we were two- one and then we were two- two after that game right yep and I remember that was a finally that was the year with my knee coming back and uh right after that game man I literally went home I go I'm goingon to make Tom Brady Tom Brady again next week what happens we we play the Cincinnati Bengals I put up like two touchdowns Sunday Night Football and boom everyone goes man did this team just bounce back and then we won it all that year yeah on to Cincinnati on to cincin what was that what was that week like inside the building it was always a pretty good Focus for Indie like there there was a no I mean after I mean after uh after Kansas City oh after Kansas City yeah we were all on high alert yeah we had state of the unions we used to have these things called state of the unions where like you know slate would always come up like yo let's have state of the union we have to go like a hallway or something like so no one would see us like oh man they're going to be chopping Joker's heads off if we lose one more here we're all going to be out of here we're [ __ ] you know what I mean that's how crazy it was if you lost was it two in a row uh let me double check it was two and two in the month of September that much yep you know like it was it wasn't a fun environment to be in when we lost everyone was on high alert we were on high high high alert and then we just switch that switch you want to know what I I know we're getting flip that switch flip I know we the switch I know we're getting off a subject and we're supposed to be talking about the Indianopolis Colts let's get back to the Colts yeah let's get back to the Colts yeah IE no but I but also I would say the the the real flipping of the switch that year was when we lost to Green Bay Bay and we took the trip to San Diego immediately after there and we beat San Diego in that Sunday Night Football game I had a tug you also had that uh sick ass 69 yard touchdown 69 yard touchdown it was you had and that was the week I put 75 oh was 75 yards where's your M always at I wore number 69 to practice that they build like we don't know each other's names we're only going to wear t-shirts out to the field so what did I put it on my t-shirt I put number 69 on my t-shirt tape and then blamed it on freaking um Jimbo that he put it that he allowed me to put 69 on my on my jersey on my freaking or my t-shirt [ __ ] gronowski whipping his [ __ ] thing he came up to me and goes if you don't take that number off just walk out you're not practicing and I was like come on like five more minutes I was like but Bill mission accomplished I already walk by the media and the and the college students that are hanging out they all cheered for me with the number we were banged up oh we were banged that at that San Diego that was a your touchdown catch sealed the deal though I remember in the Huddle you we said something I said something like let's have a good drive and I think you said in the Huddle right before that play like screw that let's just get Let's Get It One play or something like that remember I do remember that mhm it went it went down something like that it was something like that I mean it's been like 10 years now so you can't recall it to the tea but it went down I remember talking about that before that drive something yeah and you came through you always came through Jules you always came that's why we won championships a lot of them that is why a lot how many straight AFC championships we go to eight this was six this year mark the sixth you know ever since I got to New England I I had a by week every the whole nine years I played in New England I had a byee every single year going into the playoffs say uh we didn't have in my rookie year and then once you guys left departed for Florida didn't have one either but uh just incredible though that like we won the division every year how many does Kansas City have right now straight they got a lot AFC Championship appearances yeah they're going on Che they're getting pretty they're in it a lot right now you know I think this is their third fourth straight whatever but uh well we got to get back to the Colts though yeah let's get back we're kind of getting away way off but the only person I did like on that team was Pat McAfee I like well I never lik to talk to the punter yeah me neither so I really didn't like him I just like him now I like him now he's he's [ __ ] great on he's great on that but he was always talking garbage like they were sweet he yeah I'll be like bro you're on the [ __ ] Colts yeah but now I know why he was like that seeing him now yeah I'm like all right I respect it what what you he probably would have been an awesome teammate awesome teammate but he was on the Colts yeah we we just didn't we had a yeah I don't even think he likes the Colts either he he rep no he likes the Colts he's out of Indianapolis show I like CTS I don't like them I don't know know why man it's a bad taste in my mouth oh with the deflate gate too that crap that they pulled off yeah you how like you can't be any bigger of a loser pulling that off you know hey guys oh guys we lost by 50 this Ball's a little flat it's competitive Advantage are you kidding me we ran the ball for 300 yards fun facts about the the Patriots yes Jackie what we got this was Jimmy G rookie year you just mentioned Jimmy G you know what when we drafted Jimmy G I got pissed why is that because I became like the fourth yeah like good best looking guy like I was I was like maybe arguably or maybe even the fifth you you had Brady up there and I'm sure Brady got a little mad because Jimmy G's handsome that yep Jimmy G is handsome yeah I saw that Tom got asked who's more handsome that year and Tom said himself did he yeah I'm pretty sure I'm pretty sure I saw that like I said I got hit in the had a lot so when I say I'm pretty sure like I'm pretty sure but it might have not happened so don't yell at me if I'm not right don't fact check them but I'm pretty sure yep Oh My Tom was worried you were worried gone do was there right Do's up there do was worried can we can we get a top five a consensus top five biggest hunks in Foxboro can we you just said the the list right there yeah but we got to rank them I mean dev's a goodl looking guy we had some we had some good looking guys we did we had a goodlook team we really did you know we had a good-look team and we were Scrappy on the field Scrappy that's why and we were [ __ ] well coached we were disciplined we didn't make mistakes we performed under high pressure situations we practi like that no we put the work in that year every single time we hit that practice field we put the work in man there was no slacking we kept each other all accountable you know it's not like you went out to the practice field and you half asked it you couldn't you couldn't they had they were [ __ ] filming goddamn stretch lines yes to see who was stretching It Hat you hated as a player but it did make you better yes you% it made the game easier it really did this is Jame James White rookie year James White rookie year as well what what pick was he drafted he was like a third rounder wasn't he out Wisconsin third fourth rounder Bill had some excellent picks of uh some of our running backs the scat backs and stuff or third down backs third down backs he loves him he uh Shane Vine Kevin James White Kevin faul you revolutionized that yep that whole some great picks there fourth round pick 130 yes James White was an absolute Beast Man absolute Beast a lot of beast on this high tower all the guys on this team lot of beasts yeah but James was such a like he didn't say much and he just worked his [ __ ] dick off yes like he he did he didn't say anything and and and the running back room is usually a very fun room you want to know what's great about running backs is that they run the ball they can run fast they can make people miss and then you see them walk together in the hallways in between meetings and they all walk like .1 miles hour I swear man so slow they walk so slow it's like bro how are you guys making people miss and how do you guys run so fast you guys walk so freaking slow they save it for the field yeah they really do they save it for the field like you said well coach this was uh Brian Flores Chad o Shay deall D ball we had a great coaching staff as well man I remember dball used to test gr grank and stuff they he'd make these goddamn [ __ ] games and stuff remember he make games for you guys no that's why I love daal I freaking loved him bro I loved him so much why did you love him what's your best day ball he just knew how to motivate us man like you said we were playing Jeopardy in the room in order to learn our plays yeah yeah he'd be like Jeopardy day it' be me vers freaking wh man vers uh delin and then uh who El was Tim Wright in the room we it' be two verse two you know and whoever got the answer quicker he'd make it whoever gets it quicker whoever shouts it quicker so then he made us just be able to just right when you hear the play Boom you knew what you're doing so he play the game like that so then on the field when you hear the play you just be like oh it's like Jeopardy boom this is what I'm doing he just learned how to just connect with us he did he he he knew how to you loved playing for him you did you know cuz he made [ __ ] fun he knew his players like he made it fun for us and and and he knew how to scheme up [ __ ] you remember when we play that blue and white game like on the bye cuz you've always had a bye and we'd always have a scrimmage going into the you know the bye D and they'd always let the play callers they'd always let like you know the tight ends coach be the play caller for one team the running backs coach just just in case if that ever happened someone got sick or something it gave them a rep Dall would be calling me for this goddamn [ __ ] this scrimmage two nights before saying hey babe you like what do you you like you like the Gotti you like the got he's scheming up plays for the we're not going to use any of this this is like a competition period I'm like Dall I'm thinking about the goddamn we were we playing the Ravens that year you know what I mean like that's that's what D ball was he loves [ __ ] football he's always involved he'll hit you up from his hot tub with a [ __ ] cigar in his mouth at night talking about scheming at least once a week we would be in meetings and he always just scheme up a trick play every single every single week he had a new trick play and they always made sense too it wasn't like oh yo bro you're out of your mind it was like man maybe we should run that and then what happen he became the offensive coordinator with the Buffalo Bills and there was a trick play every single week that they were doing and I was like you know those trick plays were all developed when he was my tight end Coach yeah he was scheming up all the time always loves football loves he loves scheming just loves being around the game loves coaching loves connecting to the players and the only guy he's he's like one of the coaches that would gain like literally 100 pounds during the season and then they all the coaches would go on a gamble like they would gamble or not gamble they would make like a bet that wasn't at the facility or anything I don't know if they did make a bet I'm joking uh but they would have something like that and uh he would lose 100 pounds in the offseason remember that yeah every year Clockwork it was he'd be Chris Kringle when it was Christmas and then the do would be like the guy would eat everything in sight during the season and and then after football he wouldn't eat a thing I feel like not one thing he puts 100 pounds on then loses 100 pounds I mean those guys are crazy they are crazy coaching is nuts I mean you have it's so like they're at the facility all day you got to get fat you know going to eat you're just not a coach if you're not fat either yeah so what are you doing amandola you're not a coach you're still way too ripped right now yeah he needs to stop yeah he needs to get fat as [ __ ] and then and then we we would respect him as a CO I I I went out there and watched the Raiders practice doa's got his cleats and gloves on he's got cleat on as a coach with gloves I mean I'm like what are we doing dud I think he's still dreaming of being a player I'm like dude yeah he's posting on Instagram like he's a player still the yeah it's like is that the Raiders wide receiver or is that a coach like you don't know you got pregame outfits yeah we get pregame outfits he needs to become fat [ __ ] yeah yeah he would be the best coach ever then he'd be really good yeah he'd be really good he's too good-looking right now yeah he is he's way too good-looking to be a coach and then when you're fat [ __ ] you just get respected that much more from a player and then also you can talk more [ __ ] too once your fat [ __ ] like you guys remember back in the day I did this and this and then they'd be like wow you did you're right you're 300 lbs now amandola but you were legit back in the day give us some fun facts into the game Jackie uh as we mentioned earlier we were uh we uh like I was on the team I'll say we this episode um we were r a five game win streak averaging 40 points a game blowing people out after Trent dfur and uh the Colts six- one in their last seven coming into this game and then important bill bich coming off a bye here going into Indie oh we we had a bye oh they had no shot oh bro I love by weeks because dude I got abused man and then I would practice Wednesday I would practice Friday and I I'd practice Thursday full speed I'd be hitting on Wednesday full pads and I'd be blocking 40 plays a game and then trying to run over 50 people on Sundays and that's kind of the problem I ran into later in my career is that I needed more rest yeah you know and it was it was all catching up to me so I remember that by- week too I actually went to my brother's game uh he was in college Kansas State and they they were playing at TCU were and uh I came back from it and I felt so refreshed I was like dude I I just needed to get away from football for four days and not do anything and I even told everyone I'm going to have the biggest game going into the Colts game too because I finally got rest bro yeah rest is huge in the NFL and and that's a good timing to have a byee like right before the Run usually halfway point or if you get it like what is here that was the second week of the first really week of November week 10 yeah man look at those winds oh the Bears swamp the Bears 5123 that year the Broncos 43 21 is when wasn't Payton the quarterback of the Broncos that year too yeah oh man was he what game was that I don't remember that Denver Broncos game let me pull that up oh I do I remember oh I do now too and now I remember I think we both scored a couple you scored a touch high score touchdown yeah I think I was split out wide and I caught a hitch route turned around shook the DB and then ran it in for like 20 C back in I cut in on the on the shake oh yeah grank nine catches 105 yards touchdown that's what I'm talking about baby Jules Jules Jules hold on I'm scrolling down in the Box Score Jules nine catches as well 89 yards and a touchdown wow here baby nine catches each hey got to get my my yards up but but what about your punt returning that's not I to pun that game yeah you house the punt man you a legit punt returner man you were a football y punt return I forgot abouty 84 out the door yeah dude you were a legit football player you weren't just a slot receiver you remember that year you were playing defensive back for the New England Patriots yeah we went to the Super Bowl yeah we went to the Super Bowl that year and then you were playing slot receiver and then on top of it you were the punt returner and did you do kickoff returns as well early early on that's different that's impressive man that's a different track that's just football player bro cover kicks cover kicks too probably was on uh punt as well at one point I was up PP for a while all right I did P wow so you did it all you did it all backup holder backup holder too sco may you used to give me some reps oh Scotty love Scot love Scot you love football what what the what the heck you doing out here if you don't love football what else we got Jackie man I kind of would say this is like the year of 2014 not not just the Colts game we're talking about yeah I kind of like how we we're you know we're not just staying broad with the CL game we're talking about 2014 dude that's that's what this is this is a conversation exactly that was the best year man but also it was fun just whooping the Colts that was a that uh that part return was the ball you threw into the stands the Broncos one oh it was I got fined I got fined $7,500 and my agent came up we got it reduced because you go to like a little [ __ ] arbitration when you get fined yep and uh my agent come came up and said yeah cuz if you throw it in the stands you could technically start a riot that's why you get fined you can hand it to a fan you can't throw it into the stands and my agent came up with this I this I this excuse it was like I think it was like military day or something and there was a couple Marines and he told them that I was trying to throw it into the open area of the Marines where they were and they reduced my my my my fine half support the troops support the troops baby that was your fourth good dude coming up with that yeah mean supporting to troops you definitely got to reduce fie so this game again the uh out the club game we were talking out back this is just old school football blocking running lining up six offensive lineman grank delin banging H man H man running down their throat was that like leading up to the that week was was that the game plan just run it or like establish the run early we always felt like we could run the ball on Indie we we we could out physical them I don't know what that means like the 20th rank Rush defense physical them run the ball run the ball and then a dink pass to you run the ball it wasn't like we were going deep we never went deep versus the Colts we never threw a deep ball run the ball run the ball play action run the ball run the ball run the ball run the ball dink pass swing pass run the ball run the ball run the ball play action to me or something that's what it was but we knew we had established to run and we you we used old school personnel as well like we Ed another 13 personel yes 13 Personnel cam Fleming he was the other uh tight end that we used we had hman too who who was a great tight end who could block and get dirty as well um and then myself that game I remember they had that um dend as well this is what also triggered me was he was talking garbage the whole game too what D end uh Walder or something yeah right he was the backup for uh in in in Green Bay for a little bit and then he went to the Colts to be the starter he was talking garbage and let me tell you I was tossing him around yeah Eric walren Walden Walden yeah he was strong though man he came after it but I was just a different animal that game and I was tossing him we were running right behind me many of the plays uh that's why Sergio kind of went for over 200 because we were just tossing people man just bring up some of the blocking plays yeah not Sergio that's why Jonas Gray W for over 200 Jonas gy well you did block Sergio 200 yards away from where he should have been just pull up one of freaking Jonas's runs a random one I guarantee I'm freaking throwing someone around got to give Jonas a statline real quick 37 carries 2011 yards four touchdowns yes and I love blocking that this was a year like where I was in the prime of just like you know feed me in the blocking game like I love tossing people around speaking of blocking and I know I'm getting off subject I remember we all found out grank the blocker my rookie year 2000 H his rookie year 2010 when we went and played on Thanksgiving against Detroit in Detroit and the whole week Billy O'Brien was trying to uh he was hyping up VAB BOS like vandos is gonna break you VAB BOS is gonna kill you grank he was saying because vandos was like vom Bosch was like the highest paid freaking DN in the league at the time in the league from Manchild Manchild you know what happened when we play that game grank broke his neck broke his neck he also told me he was going to kill me and and all this other stuff during the game and just talking garbage and I told him I'm going to knock him out before the game ends and I knocked him out before the game ended so I'm that's that's that was my rookie year so what I take away from this podcast is if you ever talk [ __ ] to gronowski Roberto it just flips the beast mode switch it does it does so I love it so then what if it what if I was a player and I was like Hey Gro you're the best tight end ever dude like you going to go soft on me man now big dude you're trying to M mind mind trick me now is he trying to mind trick yeah he's trying to mind trick so then are you gonna go back into beast mode yeah i' go back into beast mode I'd be like dude mode no matter what be no matter what back to the Colts they suck oh man ind's going to hate us they're going to hate us bro but dude they hated us man even the fans hated us they talk so much garbage me too I remember there was someone in the front row as well just talking garbage to me and I remember I just went off after that touchdown uh and I just was the guy in the front row I just went right up to him and just lit him right up bro and that someone from the Patriots had a grab me back was like bro it's not worth it I was like it's worth it malice in the palace with grank the what malice in the palace when the with the [ __ ] uh with the basketball team fought the Pacers Pistons Pacer yeah all right I know that game that could have been you with meta world peace right yeah meta well he wasn't World Peace when he was fighting at the moment I I remember after next year when we he changed his name after he's like all right R our test then yeah R our test I think we got him coming on here soon apparently we got Ron coming apparently no way dude Ron test is someone you don't want to mess with either you could just tell no yeah yeah but wow oh I also got fined for that Sergio black as well and it was well worth the fine how much I think it was 15 racks yeah 15 that yeah whatever well worth it it's like a it's like a club tab yeah he toss them I didn't go to the club that weekend yeah oh it I had to save my 15 grand from the club only a cool 8200 actually huh only 88,200 oh 88,200 8200 well that's 15 Grand in Vegas so I didn't go out that night in Boston then yeah you don't you never pay for a drinking B no we didn't but sounded good yeah uh Andrew Luck I think we made Andrew Luck retire he couldn't beat us dude I think we truly made him retire don't you think so I I remember when that happened I it took me off I was surprised when he he just couldn't beat the Patriots remember the Colts put a banner up after they won their division I mean that I I I can't believe that you think Tom likes the Colts no Tom hates I'm just gonna say he does just to start [ __ ] I think he really likes the Colts he loves them he loves them oh no grank it's not a division it's the 2014 AFC finalist it was this year Banner it was this it was this year finalist oh my gosh what what the heck is a finalist I don't even get it another word for runner up yeah runner up oh yeah because we beat him that year in the playoffs we we smoked them we smoked him and then it was the flake gate was that the go to that was to go to the Super Bowl too oh that was to go to the Super Bowl yeah we beat him 45 to7 in the AFC Championship and then they hung a banner who hangs a banner after getting beat 45 to7 is there an owner like on something to in order to put a banner up he he's busy trying to save the whales you hear about that he tried to spend did he spend the 20 million to let me look this is great what uh I mean I wouldn't say the team jelled after this we like we already kind of went down that road I think our jelly moment was when we went lost to Green Bay this year and then we went directly to San Diego for the week yep that was our jelling and then we got Leger this next week then two weeks later didn't we like release we released Jonas yeah about he was on a Sports Illustrated he stuck around to the end of the year actually end of the year he was just inactive in the Super Bowl he only had about 30 more yards total after that game he was right he was on the cover of Sports Illustrated next thing you know after he was late to the Friday meeting the week of the Detroit game but it must have been more than just being late to the Friday me uh meeting there had to be more to it and that just topped it off that was like the cherry on top of the whip cream that that I feel bad is this one of the be uh best single on hit performance of all time what does that mean like Jonas Gray one hit wonder came out baled out and then you never heard from again uh I mean that's pretty crazy they yeah I mean 200 yards in the national football league's like nothing like slump around with four touchdowns and I like Jonas too man he was awesome bro he was awesome he man I mean yeah cuz I was looking trying to find uh you're right anything even comparable and it was I mean there's not just one hit wonders in the music world there's one hit wonders on the football field as well what about that running back from uh Cleveland he was a one hit wonder wonder that year pton Hillis there's so many one hit wonders it in in the NFL as well you just really don't notice but it is so true though man that's why they won't give any give anyone guaranteed money especially that position yeah especially that position 100% God this this was probably the start of this was the start of the second Dynasty I would say this game right here yeah it was the intensity and just absolutely dominating like in the trenches as well yeah that was what our team became and speaking of great you know memories I just really noticed that you're wearing that amazing shirt yosoy Fiesta yeah yeah that was after second year going to the Super Bowl after we beat Baltimore like Rob what are you GNA do and then he said in Spanish I was like oh I was like I'm G how do I say I'm gonna party and I go y Fiesta and I went home I was like I said I am party I meant to say like I'm going to party but I am party was just even better though it's better way better way better because it was true oh my God we were the party I remember that it's a little Patriot espanol yes I remember that guy to the tea I still think I still thinks uh I still think he has the same exact job yeah he's still there I saw he's good though he's good job love the guy he'd always be feeding me like Spanish lines and stuff like L the guy he loved his job John sliff I believe huh I believe his name is John Sutcliff is it looking love you John oh no uh yo yo uh soy Fiesta what is this this third Legacy Rob and Dave Gomes these two guys um of a daily fantasy app that will will remain unnamed they had Jonas Gray in their daily fantasy lineup and they were like the only people probably in the country to put him in that lineup that week and they won a million dollars two guys from South Boston yes I do remember that I met these guys and it's all because of uh Jonas Gray going for 204 tugs a million dollars they own commercials for them like three years after that grank vers Travis Kelce nah has nothing to do with the Colts nothing nothing to do with the Colts who's the best tight end ever Travis KY is a 100 times better than the Indianapolis Colts that that's the debate right there that's not a debate single-handedly yes single-handedly he's better than the whole organization I got a cold story why also it it magnifies our dislike for Indianapolis you think uh first off do you think the city of Indianapolis is going to like us after this podcast they never did like us good I want to be hated more because like I said The more you talk [ __ ] the more we're coming we're coming so hate us more you know what we'll freaking put the pads back on I never really I never really yeah I so so you know in 17 when I tore my ACL yes I watched the game and it was over in and it was at the Vikings Stadium right and I roll up and I'm going with guy Fetti and he's like he had a box in the Colts owner's box box so we roll up and I get in they had me escorted out they wouldn't let me sit in the Box I got taken out of the Colts box because they didn't want me in there I'm glad you did that makes this the these stories even better I mean it was I was like are you [ __ ] kidding me that's I'm glad you did I'm glad you did I've been punked by a couple owners I'm glad you did that's why we [ __ ] them up every time we played them I mean why would they let you in you beat him every single time it's a Super Bowl in Minnesota yeah they weren't even using the box they're still Petty about it about all the losses yeah we it that just shows though why we don't like them that just shows Jack did we miss anything um quick stat correction the Stanley Cup is for the NHL not the World Cup it's the winner the winner of the uh it's all right hey Jack like I said just we've been smashed billions of times yes and when I say billions I probably mean couple hundred but you know what I mean that we don't know what we're talking about sometimes fact guys no no that's what I'm here we're not fact here the only fact that you know that you're going to get out of us is that beat Indi yeah we beat the C we whooped that ass that's the only fact we know and then last one this is from our friend Assa can we get the top F the official top five most handsome Patriot list yeah Tom Jimmy G DOA grank juwes there you go he could you couldn't put your to I couldn't say you know me in the top five but but yeah we'll go with that order as well in that order is Tom over Jimmy uh just because he he was the starter the whole time basically for those four games that that Jimmy started he was he overtook Tom but then when Tom came back he he overtook that only three games rain again oh yeah those three games got hurt what about though uh what about a lineman we got to throw a lineman in there yeah you can't just excl Matt was always a good Matt great looking guy great looking guy M he's got like a m Logan had like a he had like a Rancher like yeah he country sexy He's Country hot yeah yeah Logan and Matti country hot they're number one and two for on on the country hot list remember Donald what was his name uh where they put the duck the real duck in his [ __ ] Locker Donald uh he was one of our tackles oh from where I don't remember I kind of remember he was there for a couple years I just remember Donald remember well they put a remember they put a real duck in his [ __ ] Locker he so scared I think this was before I got there that's why you were there for a year before me oh maybe it was yeah it was for sure so the name of this game throw him out the club is that the name name of the game out the club or the Jonas Gray game oh the name of the game versus the Colts in 2014 I would say uh throw them out the club yeah out the club or throw him out the throw out the club throw them out the club yeah throw them out the club that's the name of the game all right let's uh so we we have this score the game segment present what oh I forgot one more what can we get the peace story of Julian and Dane in the shower oh man I I don't know man because my brother Dan just he won't let me live it down what what what story we talking about oh the one the shower story where my brother Dan G was on the team oh yeah Dan my brother we signed him he was on the team for about eight weeks my second year in the league and Julian and Dan are showering Dan we should actually call up my brother Dan let me let me give him a call he needs to tell the story 100% he loves bragging about it to this day all right let's see if he answers if he doesn't answer then you know can give a scale down version of it Dan all right I am live on Julian edelman's podcast right now no and our final question of the day or our final story of the day is what happened in the shower between you and Julian Adelman I don't know what that's supposed to mean that no that you still brag about to me to this day I don't know I have no idea wow you must have got hit in the head a lot as well what do you mean you brag to me to this day still about it when Julian looked at you in the shower and said that you have a way bigger peace than me I didn't want to say the story I was giving you the opportunity so I've heard that a lot from a lot of people oh oh my bad my bad bro my bad that's why that's why he forgot about it Jules cuz he he hears it from a lot of people oh so Julian looked at you remember and said wow you have a way bigger piece than rob you must be at your kids game we'll talk to you later bro we'll talk to you later I can hear all the kids in the background he couldn't say it but yeah that that's exactly what happened my gosh so so [ __ ] every day in the morning every day in the morning I don't know gr I would be pissing and grank would come up and you know you have the things that divide you and grank so much taller that he he would like literally just he'd look over mine it' just be an accident because I was so tall yeah he look over and he goes wow Jules your piece looks big today actually like thanks GR by day yeah but you know you just put a bad memory in my mouth by telling Dan actually I think it's great I love it so much can't have it all gr I know I know can't have it all I can't you're right so let's uh score this game presented by win bet is this the greatest game of all time let's score it Stakes the stakes of this game it's week 10 the stakes are kind of low yeah I mean out of 10 one out of no it's not lowo cuz we had we had a win and it was versus of Colts it felt like a true rivalry game yeah like like the stakes were probably like a five or six six six I'll give it the six nothing too crazy but it it was up it was Sunday Night Football as well so that puts it up to a seven then seven puts it up to a seven since it was Sunday Night Football all right we'll go seven star power we didn't have it wasn't a like our most Starry teamz yeah Jonas Gray was like put it this way Jonas gray was the star so there must have been no star power probably what five yeah we'll go for five game play what does that mean the flow of the game like it wasn't an exciting game we we kind of it was man no they did well on offense they actually had a a pretty productive day what was the final score anyways 4220 oh but we put it on him at the end I think no it was only 1410 going into the half so it was the second half we took over all right so adjustments so the game Flow Game Play I Was I mean we've done like super bowls and stuff you know four four yeah four the name like the game play in the the in when we oh shoot when we played them in the playoffs that was like a one because we beat him 52 to s or whatever so this one's a four at least now I get it now yeah that's a four the name of this game I mean that's throw them out the club I know but what's that what's the score of that name that's a good name what do you mean what's the score of the name like how good of a name for a game oh one out of 10 one out of 10 yeah that is that's pretty good we got to have a high ranking we'll give it a nine maybe a 10 yeah we'll give it a 10 yeah we'll give it a 10 We Like Dimes What's the total Jackie let me get my math let me get my calculator out over here oh hey remember I'm math magician 7 + 5 is 12 plus plus 4 is 16 + 10 is 26 what the average you divide that by four the average is 6 and A2 telling you like John Nash over here hell yes wow I'm a math magician I'm telling you I know numbers I can't read but I know numbers the guy would always throw number if I had a question on any numbers don't I would I walk down the hallways and be like y Gro what's like the square root of this yeah and then i' just shoot it right back at you with the answer that was fun that was fun so this out of the rankings where's this game ranking Jackie these are all the games we've done oh all right this comes in a 65 so it is tied with it ties with the Bruins Canucks game seven Stanley Cup Final wow I'll take it bro I'll take it that's how exciting our games are and ties a Stanley Cup game seven I would say though the breakdown of this was like a nine or 10 today what would you say say I mean we got you on here it's 10 yeah oh I'll take come on I like that 6.9 yeah 6.9 see I like these 69 jokes again because we're going back in the day that's when like 69 jokes were on fire that's all you said for your first three years I really did that's all I did say oh we miss anything I think we hit it all yeah you want to plug anything grun no I don't got anything to plug besides the cold suck last oh last one we didn't really talk Tom at all but what's the difference between Tampa Tom and Foxboro Tom or was there a difference I mean he was just way more laid-back that's 100% that's the biggest difference I don't know yeah he was way more laidback was he yeah you know Tampa Tom I mean uh Patriot Tom every every drive he was [ __ ] someone throwing the tablets he just he did that like once or twice and instead of 30 times yeah I remember when he forgot the Downs yeah he did forget the Downs he was a little confused everyone was confused that game it was a Thursday night game we lost but he was just way more laidback just way more laidback a lot more carefree as well I could yeah I mean you guys it was impressive you guys went out there and [ __ ] it was impressive that was insane we jaled the last eight games of the Season yeah yeah we came on the we if we were so up and down had to learn with your team you had to learn what you did best did and it was Co year so no one knew each other until the start of training camp Jesus like that's tough you just throw everyone together a team together in the NFL you know at the start of training camp no one knows each other from the offseason that makes it way more impressive that Tom was able to do that yep covid year no meetings Zoom meetings it really was oh no we were practicing secretly the NFL PA was calling us like stop doing that like we were practicing secretly on that field and there was helicopters out every single day we were practicing and they would video us the helicopter would video us um practicing at a high school and then that's when that that's when everyone was flipping out like you're not supposed to be getting together what about Co like stop that and we're like yo we're just trying to play football here we're staying 10 feet apart don't worry tight end's lined up here the wide receivers out here the quarterback's over here we stayed away from each other that's I don't remember that oh Dan texted me what what did he say he goes you got the story all wrong I told you I got hit in the head plenty of times but he wouldn't say it well so Dan I had to make up a story it was something about how much bigger your piece was all right you didn't want to talk cuz you're at your kids's game that's your fault yeah you should have
