00:00We have Mike Nwenu, Patriots offensive lineman, joining us here on a Patriots Friday.

00:05He's brought to you by Shaw's and Star Market, perfecting the art of fresh.

00:08Mike Nwenu, how are we doing this week?

00:10Hey, I'm doing good. What about y'all?

00:12Oh, we're doing great. It's got to be a good time of year, right?

00:15With the weather turning a little bit yesterday. It was gross.

00:17We got snow in the forecast. It's going to be a good time to be going to Miami, right?

00:20Yeah, I'll take that.

00:23I don't mind the weather, though.

00:25It's that good weather.

00:27Me being from Michigan, I don't mind some snow or some rain or whatever.

00:32How are you guys feeling about the state of the offense here through this last month?

00:37It seems like everything is kind of on an upward track.

00:42I feel good about it, me personally.

00:44I like the things that we're doing.

00:46Things are coming along together.

00:48Only good things can come from that.

00:51The offense, we saw Marcus Jones out there last week.

00:55Is that a guy that you think could have helped the offense at an earlier point this year?

00:59He's made an impact in the past.

01:01Would you like to see more of that?

01:04Marcus is a great player.

01:06Whenever it was up to him or whenever the coaches chose to do that,

01:11any guy that wants to help, we're always open arms to it.

01:16Marcus is a tremendous athlete and football player.

01:21I'd like to see more.

01:24I've seen him in the past.

01:26He can do good things with the ball in his hands.

01:28What was it like getting Cole Strange back in practice this week, and how has he looked?

01:33It's been really good having Cole back.

01:36It's been a while since he's been out there.

01:38He's been looking good.

01:39He's been working hard, lifting, running during his rehabbing.

01:44He looks good.

01:45He looks like he's put on at least 10 pounds of muscle.

01:48He just looks more stout.

01:50Patriots offensive lineman, Michael Moynihan, joining us here on Patriots Friday.

01:54We were reading today, Mark Daniels had a story at MassLive about Ben McAdoo.

01:58Does he run the Thursday meetings for the offense?

02:01What are those like?

02:03Yeah, I would say it's pretty comedic.

02:07He has a seriousness with it, but he keeps things light.

02:12He always has a joke with it or a couple of sayings.

02:15Aren't there memes?

02:17What are his memeing skills like?

02:19We're very curious about this.

02:20Aren't there like Top Gun memes and things like this going on?

02:23Yeah, yeah, we do always have a Top Gun meme,

02:26and we always have our candidates for the week.

02:30Yeah, I don't know how he chooses them, but it's always a good laugh,

02:33and we always enjoy doing that installation.

02:37Are you a Top Gun fan or maybe more so Top Gun Maverick?

02:41I'm a fan of both.

02:42I've seen both.

02:43What about Gladiator?

02:45We got Gladiator 2 coming out this weekend, which I know you're busy.

02:49You have something to do on Sunday, but at some point,

02:52do you think you're going to see Gladiator 2?

02:54Yeah, I think I will catch it.

02:57I haven't seen the trailer either.

02:59I mean, I know who's in it, but I definitely will catch that.

03:03Okay, that and Wicked.

03:05I think they're calling it –

03:06A double feature.

03:07Yeah, is it Glicket I think as well?

03:08They're referring to that.

03:09They're trying to get the Barbenheimer thing going, I believe.

03:11Not quite the same.

03:13What sort of challenges might the Dolphins present this weekend

03:16for you guys as an offense?

03:18Yeah, they're a good team.

03:20Obviously, they're very good at home.

03:23They have that advantage.

03:24But, no, it's a good team.

03:26I won't say we know the team.

03:27It's a couple different pieces.

03:29They've been doing different things since the last time we played them

03:32going into this week.

03:33So, I think it's more about us.

03:35The more we play well and the more we keep doing the things that we've been

03:38doing the last three, four weeks, good things will come from that.

03:42Okay.

03:43Michael Wenner joining us here every Friday here on Jones.

03:46And, Keith, best of luck against the Dolphins.

03:48Mike, we'll talk to you down the line.

03:50Yes, sir.

03:51Appreciate it, Joe.

03:52See you all.

03:53All right.

03:54Thank you, Mike.

03:55Brought to you by Shaw's and Star Market, perfecting the art of freshness.
