is that all Price can do? he seems to be the only WR to be assigned that route for some reason
I had to put up with a lousy Clevland- Pitts. game. How on earth did that team beat us !
When we spoke, Taylor told me just the act of mimicking game-day preparation has helped.
"I think definitely traveling with them," Price said, "being in the meeting rooms before games, being in the locker room, going out and getting warmups, just trying to be as close as I can to be with the team throughout these game days is the best for me now. Sooner or later, I'm going to be in there, so it's going to be my job to step up and be ready to go. I watch these games, I feel like I'm part of the team. I'm rooting for them, cheering for them, I feel happy. We're all tight. Just got to keep these things going."
Price missed 12 OTAs days because of the NCAA’s graduation rule, and he’s been behind ever since. Plus, with the roles of Wes Welker, Deion Branch, Brandon Tate, and Julian Edelman entrenched, there isn’t much of a chance for playing time.
He's just trying to focus on the present with an eye toward the future.
"Obviously, I’m going to be excited for next year, just because (I could) get on the field," Price said. "Hopefully. But like I said, keep looking at every week, one week at a time, and keep working. I evaluate my practice film every day, look back at it, see what I did, see what I could work on, see my routes, see the little things. I got to get better myself, even though I’m not getting number one reps. I still gotta work on my overall game, so that’s what I've been trying to work on."
''We always say here... our job as receivers is to get open and catch the ball. However we do that, we need to catch the ball,'' O'Shea said. ''Regardless of what the reason is we dropped it, we need to go out there and correct the mistakes. Julian will work hard to do so, just as all our receivers will work hard to catch the ball and get open every week.
As for Price, who hasn't played a down, O'Shea spoke in complimentary terms of the rookie.
''Behind the scenes, Taylor is working extremely hard right now,'' O'Shea said. ''he's doing what we ask him to do, which is go to practice, and try to get better every day. That's what he's done. He's had some great receivers in front of him that he can learn from, and if he does so, he'll continue to progress. All we ask of him is to continue to work hard, and I thin he has worked hard.''
Mentioned this in t'other thread but if he has a good preseason and has the chemistry with Tom I think he may pass Tate next year
The perfect scenario for the franchise would be both Tate and Price bypassing Deion. Possibly Edelman as well.
Maybe he'd be a good coach if he had 2 weeks to prepare every time and no opponents did?Easy. The New England game was their Super Bowl. The rest of their season, a side show.
That's what you get when you hire Mangina to be your head coach. I hope the fans are pleased.

If needed; I just don't know who you sit if everyone's healthy. The depth is amazing.
