Re: Banks:With Brady as his co-pilot, Cassel has tools to succeed with Patriots
There was a scene from the Americas Game 2001 DVD where Tom asks Drew to call in the plays to him and Drew says sarcastically 'sure, I'm a great coordinator' then they go on through what plays Tom likes and what he doesn't and Drew says something like 'you just want to pass alot so you get on TV don't you?' It's a cool little bit.
Drew wore a headset all through 2001. Sometimes that's just to listen in, other times it's a backup or mentor QB relaying in the plays rather than the OC. Some OC's sit in the booth and some stand on the sidelines. I believe we position Ernie in the box...
Brady can do a lot of scouting and film work for and with Matt. I doubt he'd be as vocal in game. Too many voices and all... More likely he'd be in communication with Bill and Josh in game and let them filter his observations first.
And no, NEM, he's not going to be the new defacto OC...
