Hey, what's up everybody.

Welcome into Tom Curran's Patriots Talk podcast.

Phil Perry, Tom Curran, getting ready for Super Bowl 60.

We are relentlessly upbeat. We got a heck of a pod, don't we? We do. It's me, it's Phil, it's Chris Sims. It's the sights and sounds of Media Night as the Patriots and Seahawks ready themselves for Super Bowl 60. We're going to break it down, but first, enjoy those sights and sounds that I mentioned just a moment ago.

Yeah, feeling great. Yeah, feeling good. It was out there today.

You got an extra day I work in for practice this day. And then from there, looking forward to get back out there the next couple days. Yeah, I'm feeling good. I'll be just fine. I threw a good bit. I threw as much as I would in a normal practice. and felt great and looking forward to, you know,

get back out there on the, you know,

Wednesday and Thursday for practice again and Friday

and be ready to get a normal practice and felt great and looking forward to, you know, getting back out there on the, you know, Wednesday and Thursday for practice again and Friday and be ready to get a normal week of prep. Turn to corner. I think turn to corner, you know, winning on the flight, you know, felt good from the flight and thrown out there today. I think it turned a corner and you really had no doubt and being 100% for the game. This is a Super Bowl. we get two weeks to prepare for it, do whatever it's got to do to get it right. And I've got

confidence and, you know, You really had no doubt in being 100% for the game. This is a Super Bowl. We get two weeks to prepare for it,

do whatever it's got to do to get it right.

And I've got confidence and you'll feel good.

Well, I've done a fantastic job.

Not only are they talented, but they have an identity.

They have a play style that I appreciate in all three phases.

This will be a great identity matchup for us. This would be an identity war

on the biggest stage. They play hard. Their defense runs at a football. They cause a lot of

turnovers. You see they're committed to running the football. There's a there's a physical.

It's a physical football team. So, you know, Mike has done a fantastic job. John's done a fantastic job putting

that roster together. This would be a huge challenge. Whatever, I learned about myself as a player as a leader. I do a lot of self evaluation as far as like, uh, my emotions. Um, when I say I got a passion for the game, I try not to be a distraction when it comes to passion. I feel like, uh, the younger you are you kind of get caught in just one self and what you want and how you are and how much time you put in. But I said a long time ago, the game don't care how much time you put in. Nobody cares how much time you put in for yourself. You know what I'm saying? Can't nobody come and run the routes for you or lift the ways for you for me? The time that I invest in this game is because I wanted to be ready.

I wanted to be ready for my opportunity, even if it didn't come. When I was younger, I felt like I wanted more and I wanted more and I wanted more. And, you know, eventually I did get that opportunity when I got to Buffalo. But all that work that you put in, no nobody care about the work that you put in in how many times that you fell short. They only care about it when you make it. So when you make it as far as we made it right now.

So for me, I just always did it for myself.
