HEY BRO! WHAT UP?

Don't worry, what Dilfer says really isn't all that negative, but believes the spread doesn't work in the NFL.

Just hit edit and then look for another edit button. That will let you fix it.

Belichick has been saying the same thing about the spread, I think. Saying he thinks that's petering out.

HEY BRO! WHAT UP?

Thanks for the tip! Fixed it.

Dont worry Pat's fans I heard Dilfer's 3rd cousisn by marriage worked as a beer vendor during Jets games so we know he is just making this up to screw over the Pats.





On a serious note if the Pats remember to use TEs this year it could be dangerous.

I think he's vocalizing what a lot of us were seeing last year. I know I'm not alone out here when I got to the point of screaming at the TV watching Brady set up in the Shotgun 3 plays in a row and watching defenses pin their ears back on him.

I agree with Dilfer. The spread is also next to useless in the red zone when there's no field to spread.

if the TEs can catch the ball, they will be used.

Dilfer is a very good analyst, based on his analysis we can expect more of a running attack as well. I wonder if any of the iron men the Pats have at RB can last a full season.

First off, well played on your first sentence. On your second sentence, it's pretty well known that Bill O'Brien (our acting OC) has made it clear that he wants to use the TE's in our offense in more of a pass catching capacity. That's why you've seen the moves we've made at the position. We got Crumpler for his blocking capacity, Gronk can block and catch the ball well, and Hernandez is a pure receiving threat. Hernandez isn't just a TE though. He'll line up in the slot as well.

You're right - you're not alone. I esp. get mega-pissed whenever I see the empty-backfield shotgun spread w/ minimum protection used in short-yardage situations. Abso-effin-lutely retarded.
