Appreciate some OL experienced guys providing some insight:
Brady lauds center Wendell - New England Patriots Blog - ESPN Boston
was reading that story and TB said....
So, my question...... between the uptempo pace-no huddles, and that wendell only has the two Gs right next to him - HOW EXACTLY does the C "communicate" "calls and adjustments" while he has a QB with his hand on his a-- who is yelling out '58s the Mike', 'Alabama'...... over his head? Is he yelling out code words to the OL from the set position? If so arent they talking over the top of each other?
Anyway even if they do actually huddle; i've never noticed the OL doing a mini-5 man huddle on the way to the line - so is there any difference in how they do calls from a huddle to no-huddle play?

Playing center on our team, it's not easy with the amount of calls and adjustments that we have both from the communication that I have with him and then he relays on to the rest of the offensive linemen," Brady noted. "He's done a great job. He's a tough, hard-nosed football player that loves the game, and loves to compete."
