He's got the answers," Brady said. "And when he comes in and talks to us on a Monday morning and says, 'This is what we need to do to win.' And then he comes back the next Monday morning and we lost the game and says, 'I gave you six things and we did one of them,' obviously, it's very frustrating for everybody.
"Me included. There are games where he (Belichick) says, 'This is a turnover-driven team and we can't have turnovers because they're going to capitalize and they've done that all season long. They're plus-12 in turnovers. They've scored this many points off them and if we do this, we're going to lose.' And of course I go out there on the first drive and fumble the ball. I always include myself. I'm at the top of the list. I've got to have a great season in order for our team to be productive. Along with everybody else, but the only person I can really control is myself."
Total cop out on Brady's part. The fact is, Brady had his worst season since 2002 in terms of to closing out games. I don't know if he said this or not but he should've blamed himself for the team's collapse as well. How about his carelessness with the football against Baltimore? It looked like he couldn't wait for the season to end.
Yeah let's hate Gasper because he has an opinion, an opinion that doesn't favor the Pats. If you don't like what he said, don't even think about it. In fact, even if it favors the Pats, you have to take everything with a grain of salt. A lot of you guys on this board need to stop taking what anybody says negatively about the Pats so personal.
I'd take anybody that wants to speak their mind any day of the week over someone that just relays whatever is given to them by the Pats.
So Jarvis Green could have been Richard Seymour if he'd just listened to the coach more?
Fred Taylor should just have heeded Belichick's parting words of "don't get hurt", and all would have been well?
Man, if the 31 other teams ever catch on to this brilliance, the league will be absolutely full of awesome teams. Maybe Henne should just listen to coach Sporano when he says "Be better than Tom Brady", and the Dolphins will be unstoppable.
Prior to Brady's interview, who knew that all turnovers were strictly the result of not listening to the head coach? Well, the secret is out now......

Christopher Gasper's run away Anti - Patriot agenda was on full display on tonights 6:30pm Comcast NE Sports Tonight.
The first topic of the night was "what happened to Lebron James". With film of last nights Celtics win playing, Gasper claimed that "Lebron quit like Randy Moss". Michael Holley and Tanguay came back on topic, only to have Gasper repeat, "Lebron quit like Randy Moss". After Holley again brought the topic back to the Celtics and Lebron, I almost fell out of my chair as Gasper said for the THIRD time, "Lebron quit like Randy Moss". So much for the Celtics chat.
After the commercial break, the subject turned to the Patriots. Gasper stated that "Brady was wrong when he said that the Patriots failed last season because they didn't listen to their coach". Michael Holley, stuck up for Brady, saying that "Brady was in the locker room and in the huddle, and that Brady knows what he is talking about." Gasper replies, "Oh Yeah. When Brady fumbled and blew the Denver game, was that because he was not listening to the coach, or because he didn't execute?" Gasper reiterated that Brady is just making excuses.
I guess Gasper must have missed this part of Brady's interview:
Brady - 'We Weren't a Mentally Tough Team'
Pretty cheap shot! I can't believe Brady threw Brady under the bus like that. Brady should just worry about himself and let Brady worry about his own problems. If I was Tom Brady, it would be a long time that I would speak to myself after this.
I gave that guy the odd read as he was Robin to Reiss' Batman. Honestly, not sure I've read single thing he's written since Mike moved on to ESPNB.
For me, Reiss, Price, and a sprinkling of Rappaport is plenty of solid Pats reporting for me. Though it will be soon time to listen to WEEI while working/travelling. That's a total crapshoot, as you all know.

Gasper is an example of the current trend toward media hybridization -- and a bad one at that. He's much too young to have any appreciable level of credibility, and never earned his stripes as a writer/reporter. Now he's logging airtime on radio and television because he's "glib." Rather than work toward being an insightful reporter, he's honing a stir-the-pot contrarian approach to make a name for himself. Pathetic. And his voice sucks to boot. I change stations whenever he comes on just like for Borges.
Gasper made an easy comparison and a pretty shrewd comment. People may not like them, or fully agree with them, but they certainly don't show that Gasper hates the Patriots.
Who does everybody here think is more negative, Gasper or Al Breer? Breer has been over the top negative lately, and I'm getting tired of it. I'll have to pay closer attention to Gasper.
