00:00So joining us right now is Dietrich Wise, Patriots defensive lineman.

00:03He's brought to you by Shaw's and Star Market, perfecting the art of fresh.

00:07Dietrich Wise, how are we doing this week?

00:09You excited about going to London, another international stage?

00:12Yes, that's where I am.

00:14So it's going to be pretty cool.

00:16This week, Gerard Mayo, head coach, said there will be changes personnel wise.

00:22Have you guys already been made aware of what those changes will be?

00:27We have not.

00:28So on a typical week, when do you guys find out sort of, you know, who's starting?

00:33Who's first, you know, first guys in?

00:36Like, when do you find that out for a particular game?

00:39Well, it depends on the group, but most likely it's case by case basis.

00:45You usually don't really know who started until closer to game.

00:50We've heard Gerard Mayo be very critical of some of the defensive breakdowns

00:55you guys have had with your run fits.

00:58How do you get that cleaned up this weekend against Jacksonville?

01:02It's all a mindset.

01:03Playing the run is a mindset.

01:05Knowing when you get to the game, knowing what you want to get.

01:08We've been rehearsing and going over the things that we're going to see in the game.

01:13So when we see them, we won't have any excuse on how to properly react to the block.

01:21What has stood out thus far preparing for Jacksonville?

01:28Well, I don't know if number one is playing the running back, but if he is,

01:33both of these guys, number one and number four, are strong running backs.

01:37Number four is a very hard runner, loves to lower his shoulder,

01:42and also very fast.

01:43We know Trevor Lawrence is who he is.

01:47He's a great thrower, but definitely put the ball in the right spot

01:51for the receiver to catch it.

01:53Can also run the ball as well.

01:56And then the offensive line is pretty big and strong as well.

01:59So we've been seeing some good things.

02:02They have some fast receivers, strong linemen, and a strong running back.

02:07So we have a challenger on our hands once again,

02:09but if we play the game that we know how to play,

02:12that's a tough physical, and we'll definitely come out with a win.

02:16Does part of you want to face Mac Jones a little bit?

02:20Not any animosity, in an animosity type of way,

02:27but if he does play, you know what I'm saying, it'd be cool if I get to play against him.

02:30I feel like he'd be very sackable.

02:32I feel like of all the quarterbacks that you might want to sack,

02:34I feel like he'd be up at the top of the list.

02:37You know, it's funny you say that, because he's actually very fast

02:41and very agile in the pocket.

02:43He definitely played here, he definitely ran around,

02:47definitely broke some yardage, definitely his first couple of years here.

02:51So if he does get to play, we'll definitely have to make sure we contain him.

02:58Yeah, just watch out between the whistles if I were you.

03:00That's all I would do, make sure you're wearing a cup.

03:02He's kicked some guys.

03:03That's all I would say if he's out there on the field.

03:07Drake May, also quite mobile, as we've seen through his first start

03:11and his first couple of appearances here with the New England Patriots.

03:14He was on the injury report yesterday.

03:16Anything happen yesterday at practice with him?

03:20I am unaware of anything that happened.

03:23Okay, so you're unaware of anything knee-related

03:27that could have popped up on the injury report yesterday.

03:28That'd lead me to believe that maybe it happened in the game.

03:30Okay, trying to connect some dots.

03:32That's interesting.

03:33What did you think of Drake May in his first start?

03:36I think he actually played very well, in my opinion, the first time playing.

03:41I think him still learning the game, he has some things to work on,

03:45but overall, I think he showed some good things on tape

03:50and looking to see what he can do this week to build upon that.

03:53You've somehow been able to avoid the captain's curse.

03:56I don't want to throw it out there,

03:58but looking at the six captains that were announced

04:01at the beginning of the season, you were the only one active last week.

04:05It's like Final Destination.

04:06Yeah, maybe we shouldn't talk about it,

04:07but have you felt that pressure?

04:11No, I haven't felt any pressure.

04:13It's kind of unfortunate what happened to the guys around me,

04:16but I just, you know, I don't know.

04:22I just feel like the things that are going on,

04:24that's out of our control, and we all are here together,

04:29pushing for each other, pushing for one another to get better

04:31or to get back into the old way, so whatever that is.

04:36He's Patriots captain Dietrich Wise,

04:38joins us here on what's normally a Patriots Friday on a Thursday

04:42on Jones and Keefe.

04:43Dietrich, we appreciate the time.

04:44Best of luck in London on Sunday.

04:47Thank you, man. I appreciate it.

04:49Have you ever been to London?

04:50No, I have never.

04:52How often have you been to Europe, Keefe?

04:53I haven't been to Europe all that much.

04:54Once. I went to Spain once.

04:56Wow. Same. How about you, Dietrich?

04:57I mean, you've played Germany, you've played London, right?

04:59Where else have you been?

05:03For football, Mexico, Germany, and London. That's it.

05:06What about in your personal travels?

05:08You've been elsewhere?

05:10I've been overseas a few times.

05:11I've been to the Caribbean, and I've been to Dubai once.

05:17How about that?

05:18You know what? I have a family wedding in Dubai

05:21coming up early next year.

05:23How do you like that? How about that?

05:25Be careful of the travel. It's a long travel.

05:27Okay. All right. I will mark that down.

05:30Dietrich, best of luck. We appreciate it.

05:33Thank you very much. Have a good day.

05:34All right. Thank you.

05:35Dietrich Wise, Patriots Thursday.

05:37Two things are, if he ends up having to face Mac Jones,

05:41that means they already knocked Trevor Lawrence out of the game.

05:43No, I'm not saying injury. I just mean, like, he threw two picks.

05:46They're playing horrible. They're like,

05:47all right, we got to shoot some guys.

05:48They made him an honorary Patriots captain before the game,

05:49and then it goes down.

05:50Here comes Mac Jones, and then they can just get,

05:52you know, sack Mac Jones. Then you feel like they're dead.

05:54If Mac Jones plays in the game, they win.

05:58Patriots? Yes.

05:59I feel good about that. Just, you know, watch your knees.

06:04Oh, he'll come after you.

06:05If there's a return going the other way,

06:06just keep your head on a swivel.

06:08He'll take a guy down with you.

06:09Make sure you're covering up below the belt.

06:11That'd be my recommendation.

06:12Something tells me Dietrich Weiss knows that very well.

06:14He knows. But Mac's super mobile.

06:15You know, you may not know that, Keith, but super mobile.

06:17Head behind.

06:18I don't remember that, but I'll take his word for it.

06:21I mean, I never lined up across him.

06:22He saw it every day in practice.

06:23He pays very close attention to practice.

06:25Didn't see anything with Drake May.

06:26That leads me to believe that it must have happened in the game,

06:28according to Dietrich Weiss.

06:29Nice. News breaking here on Jones and Keith.
