on The Brock & Salk Show<\/a> on Seattle Sports 710 AM.<\/p>\n\u201cPretty regular,\u201d said Carroll. \u201cWe\u2019re phone buddies. He hasn\u2019t been out here but one time since we\u2019ve been here, but we\u2019ve talked a ton of times. And talking philosophy with Tom, you can imagine what a thrill it is because he\u2019s the all-time competitor. It\u2019s not just how he played, it\u2019s how he lived, and how he sees the world, and how he attacks every opportunity he has. We\u2019re so eye to eye on that, it\u2019s been a blast. It\u2019s really been fun. The challenge of it is to bring that mentality and connect it to our entire franchise.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen Tom came on board here, it changed my outlook on coming here. I thought that would be one of the great opportunities of all time, to have his presence. His presence is strong. John Spytek and him go back a ton of years and Johnny holds him in the highest regard. So we\u2019re trying to infuse Tom\u2019s mentality, we\u2019re trying to bring it into the organization, because it\u2019s so good and so unique and so one of a kind, I think it helps us to be a one-of-a-kind franchise.\u201d<\/p>\n

Carroll\u2019s description of how involved Brady is within the organization doesn\u2019t exactly kill concerns about his conflicting roles. While it sounds like the seven-time Super Bowl champion isn\u2019t hanging out at the facilities, it does sound like he has input on what the team will do this season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tom Brady\u2019s simultaneous serving as the lead NFL on Fox game analyst and as a part-owner of the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":59207,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2065],"tags":[7,1744,393,2455,2454,6,16026,3976,525,1369],"class_list":{"0":"post-59206","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-las-vegas-raiders","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-las-vegas","10":"tag-las-vegas-raiders","11":"tag-lasvegas","12":"tag-lasvegasraiders","13":"tag-nfl","14":"tag-nfl-on-fox","15":"tag-pete-carroll","16":"tag-raiders","17":"tag-tom-brady"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/114527266852638104","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59206","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=59206"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59206\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/59207"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=59206"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=59206"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=59206"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
