Pay attention.
He DOES wear a wristband and THAT's what they commented on.
Somewhat toung-in-cheek that he needed one, followed by comments that the Pats have thousands of plays. The offense is a huddle play call, everyone read the D at the LOS, check with me the QB, run the pattern option depending on the coverage style offense.
Didn't they say they experimented with letting him call his own plays and wave his arms around like a conductor performing Flight of the Bumblebee (in other words like Peyton)?

The biggest difference is that at times manning essentially calls the play from scratch at the line, where as the Patriots tend to have set plays which in turn have set variations and options off of them. Once they are at the line, they don't need the QB to call a brand new play from scratch, merely call which adjustment or option is being used.

Interesting.
On a related note, I had always assumed that the plays had such exotic names that they would use a far simpler code over into the headset (eg play 69) and then Brady would look up play 69, and call it by its long name in the huddle that makes sense to everyone (triple stack left, z corner, doulbe outpost, button hook up her ass, eat me)
Is that not what the wrist band is for?

Peyton keeps the plays in his neck. Sorry. I had too.Why doesn't Peyton need one? Are all of the plays in his giant cranium? ...
Didn't Gruden also say that no QB in the NFL does more to direct his offense than Brady does?
