Meh. Real professionals play at a high level of intensity with or without bulletin board material. In my opinion, it's rather irrelevant at the pro level to the actual play of the game. Our team doesn't need a quote from BB to get pumped for this game.
I am so excited for this game, this is the time in years that we may see Brady get his head knocked off
http://www.patriots.com/games/index...sdetail&pid=29395&pcid=141&special_section=na remembering that game, i remember it being so horrible for the ravens. Chris McAlister said it best in this article. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/05/sports/football/05patriots.html
Not to ruin this thread with reality, but... http://audio.weei.com/m/26424236/bill-belichick-patriots-head-coach.htm The interview is long and they talk about the Jets mostly the 2nd half of the interview. Sorry, but some delusional Pats fans on that site heard what i guess they wanted to hear. No bulletin board material at all. On the jets drawing up 10 or 12 draws, he said the Pats were so bad against the draw Monday that with a weapon like Washington, the Jets were probably drawing up 10 or 12 draw plays right now. He did say that on D they basically copied the Ravens playbook and brought it to NY (It is Rex's Defense). He followed that up by mentioning they played really well and were a very talented and fast group on D, naming Revis, Jenkins, and the return of Ellis... He did mention and seem surprised that Houston didn't seem to adjust to anything the Jets were doing, and the Jets kept taking it to them. Said Sanchez was aggressive and confident and really wants to make plays on the field. That the D must play good position because he doesn't need alot of room to get the ball in to his receivers, and also he throws well on the run. Said the offensive line was the same personnel, but look alot better this year, not only against Houston, but against the Iggles and G-Men in the preseason. Gave kudos to callahan and Shotty... Sorry, but no smoking guns....
I wanna hate you for being an intellegant Pats fan... they could use some more like you in Assachusetts.
I'm from Maine I sort of feel at home here because this site reminds me alot of the Bruins board I'm on. 25% think everything is a conspiracy, and the sky is falling 25% drink the kool-aid, and buys everything the org. puts out 50% you can actually discuss the pros and cons of stuff with
Stupid Rant I remember watching that Ravens/Pats game in '07 with my room mates, funny thing was one of them was a Ravens fan and the other was a Pats fan (though I always could tell he was just on their bandwagon like most of the Pats fans now, any reference to their old teams except for Bledsoe he was clueless). By the end of the game, we all agreed that it had to be the biggest BS win of all time. If something like that happens again, I hope Bart just takes it upon himself and say "you wanna call the game like this, I'll show you what a penalty is" and tries to drill Brady to the center of the Earth. So much for 16-0 again refs, better place those bets elsewhere! /Stupid rant
Look how retarded they are.... One guy makes a sarcastic remark on how good the RAVENS defense was and look how they replied... :lol:
Exactly, it comes down to the players. If BB knows it so well, then the Pats should have no problems winning. That is if the their lines don't get pushed all over the field.
Well, there was some talk after the game that the Texans have never been able to play against a 3-4 defense. I would expect the Pats to do better in the knowledge department. I just don't think they have the players anymore to match up. I expect Brady to lineup like he is going to punt on most plays.
Yeah I listened to it live on WEEI on the way home from work. He's on every Tuesday. He called them Baltimore twice and pretty much stated Sanchez is very aggressive and will try to squeeze passes in where he shouldn't. He's just a dick. I don't see Sanchez as aggressive.
I was thinking the same thing! First Scott hits him late then Jenkins accidentally falls on him... I don't care if we give away 30 yds... that would teach them a lesson! PS just imagine what happened to McNabb only with Jenkins coming in so late... haha!
Bellicheck cracks me up, in the Bills game, both teams are wearing their throwbacks, all the coaches are wearing throwbacks, the refs are wearing throwbacks and this dick who is above everyone else is wearing his cutoff sweatshirt that hasn't been washed in 7 years, what an egomaniac!
