i follow him on twitter, hes thankful for all the support and knows he been playing better but continues to need the support, it seems all the rookies and young players are going out in Rochester, NY tonight
Hopefully they go to the best BBQ joint in the entire northeast and not to any club. The scene in Rochester is not ideal, to say the least.
McCourty, Bodden, Arrington, Butler, Wilhite is almost too good to be true. At least two of them will have significant injuries. Thats the Pats record with secondary injuries for ya.I'm liking Butler's progress too. I think the first Jet game just pointed out that at THIS point of his career, Butler is going to have a problem with big strong physical WRs, like he did with Edwards. IIRC he was THERE on a lot of those catches that day, just that he wasn't in position to make a play on the ball That showed a lack of both technique and experience.
I am REALLY looking forward to next season's CB group. With Boddin, McCourty, Arrington, Butler, and Willhite the Pats will have 5 CBs with experience and the skill set to play inside and outside the hashes. It has taken several years, but we have NEVER been that talented and deep at the CB position before in the BB era.
The best record in the NFL....AND the best is yet to come. WOW.

Frankly, I think for whatever reason he wasn't playing as well as Arrington or Wilhite or the extra safety in the sub. Now he seems to be.I disagree with the idea that he is a "reclamation project" or that he "lost confidence." This was a player that just had a hard time getting away from the mindset that one gets by on pure athleticism in the NFL. He's starting to get the picture that you just can't ignore fundamentals or proper technique.

There's a guy named Rex you might want to hook up with....
Earthwind Moreland will be 34 next June.
Hank Poteat will also be 34 next Aug.
We got it covered!!!
And we have them locked up for a long time.I think that another aspect of Butler's development is the level of playmaking going on around him. So much of football is momentum and it's the same when a group or team is building momentum. Your peers start making plays, elevate their game, work their butts off in practice, and it's only natural for your play to follow. Anyone who is competitive wants to be the best in their group. He's probably worked harder, plays with better swag, and trusts his abilities to make a play. I give a lot of the credit there to McCourty.
Towards the corners moving forward, they'll have two pro-bowl caliber outside guys and two pretty damn good inside guys. Butler's agility is strong enough to make him a great slot fit, and if he develops further we're talking about three elite corners. I believe that if he maximizes his skills Butler can be the best slot guy in the game and eventually take over as a damn good replacement for Bodden.
It's mind boggling to think about what this defense can have if these players continue to develop.
