New England Patriots featured video and audio brought to you by WEEI Boston's Sports Radio

I hardly ever post threads but THIS was fantastic. THIS clip is WHY I follow the Pats and why I am a member here.I was out doing errands and heard this 2 hours ago...I come back here and no thread or any reference.

Has everything changed overnight?? Has the past six months driven away FANS of football, leaving only "fans" that worry about the effects of the sixth year of a certain player's contract?

THIS link should have been up here BEFORE BB even came on air...in the past it would have. Maybe it'd be possible to make a tab either devoted to business/contract talk so everybody in their offices can dissect and argue about the minutiae of business agreements or else make a tab for fans of Patriot FOOTBALL and make the Patriots Fan Forum the defacto Patriots fans talk business,contracts,numbers, amortizations,bonuses etc etc.

I'm listening to this right now...again..and the Bruschi/BB back and forth is TREMENDOUS.A fan's treasure chest of insight.

NOT one reference in any thread title made today. Things must be changing as far as being a fan is concerned. Obviously, I am WAY out of the loop in today's NFL.

Well, This is the first I heard of it, but then I've been having to do real-life stuff this afternoon too.

I'll go listen to it now.

Uncle Rico

Does he say anything about not coaching forever?

Sounds terrific - -I'll check it out now.

One of the better BB/Big Show interviews. Having Bruschi was great except he wouldn't let BB finish what he was saying before he jumped in with another question or though. Anyway Brucschi pretty much said they were not only playing 4-3 but using 4-3 techniques i.e not 2 gapping. BB kinda of danced around it by saying they have always done that just not as much, but is was clear he could only bend the truth so much w/ teddy.

Rough Transcript of conversation at 17:30:

Holly starts talking about coordinators, specifically why they don't have one for the defense.

Q: "And Bill O-Brien does have that title on the offensive side"

BB: "He does"

Q: "Any reason that he does and you haven't done it defensively, on the defensive side"

BB: "Um, No"

Q: "Okay"




Oh Bill.

Great interview. I'll listen to it again to catch a couple things I missed the first time around, but overall it was indeed nice to hear some of the insights into how things are done.

Great interview but Tedy was somewhat annoying, he'd start talking over Bill, then if Bill didn't stop he would start over and cut him off again until Bill gave him the stage. Good questions but we didn't get to hear the full answers on a few because of that. Otherwise, great stuff.


....hahaha:

Bruschi was on the phone so he could not pick up the cues of Ordway and Holley, so that may have led to the confusion..

Next Monday Bruschi will be on the "Big Show" from 2 to 6, and he will be face to face..

OP could have just provided the link without the stupid commentary. Just sayin'.

The difference is that Brady calmly calls audibles while Manning flaps like a chicken, barks 11 code words, and makes sure every camera in the stadium has documented his once-in-a-generation (and patented, I believe) ability to see a defensive formation and change the play. Both have the same effect, but Manning transcends measurable human intellect while Brady merely chooses a different play.
