Did you even watch? He wasn't even that critical. Called Brady a great leader, just said it sends a bad message. Given how trashy NFLN usually is, I had no problem with it.
I have to disagree here.
First, they were showing Brady lose it on the throw into the dirt in the end zone. He was yelling at Edelman, not Dobson.
The Total Access people got this right, Irvin got it wrong. When the rookies were screwing up, Brady was guiding them. And Irvin repeated that Brady never got angry at himself for the long throw to Edelman multiple times. The fact is, Brady did get mad at himself. He was furious with himself.
And lastly he blamed Brady for a bad throw to Dobson (the one Dobson didn't see on the sideline over his back shoulder until it was too late). That was a perfect throw by Brady.
I thought it was a very bad job by Irvin.
Brady could also tone it down when it comes to Edelman as well. Edelman was his safety valve and Edelman is just coming into his own.
Also, these former receivers do not have a good understanding of the Patriots offense, and they say a lot of contradictory things.
For instance, they said that the Patriots miss Welker a lot. Then they said that Amendola being hurt also damages the offense, but that Edelman filled in nicely for Amendola, and that when amendola returns, they are going to have the same problem since Edelman will sit, and that problem is, no outside threats, only one slot guy.
So, given that analysis, how would keeping Welker have helped the team?
They make no sense. I get dizzy listening to those clods.
