Rodak: Belichick, players upbeat Thursday

[NEP4Life]

Loose Patriots wrap it up on high note - New England Patriots Blog - ESPN Boston

Bill Belichick [was] in a noticeably good mood for his news conference, often a positive sign that he is pleased with his team's preparations that week.

The looser feel to Thursday sent one message above all else: it has been a good week in Foxborough.

FWIW, better to have the team loose instead of too tight IMHO.

They are going to absolutely roll.

It means nothing. The "CHOSEN ONE" is coming to town. The Pats have no chance.

All the media hype I'm hearing today is about how the Broncos are being underestimated, how wind and cold will hurt the Pats passing game, how it'll be a one-score contest, :blahblah::blahblah::blahblah: ... Man, I hope we STOMP those muthas.

I think I would prefer them going into this game a little pissed off.. but maybe they just feel really confident and that could be a good sign. Whatever works and gets the win!

We've come full-circle folks, the Pats are being disrespected by the media.

Tebow is a miracle worker
The Broncos beat a 12-4 team
The Pats defense sucks
They haven't beaten anyone good
They choke in the playoffs
Brady sucks in the playoffs now

I can guarantee that the coaching staff has been dropping these little digs on the players all week long...

PTI just did a thing on Brady..the first one..about how focused Brady is going to be due to his 4-4 in his last 8 playoff games...brady is not taking this lightly and wants to destroy them...They NEED this win..for players and us fans

After hearing about their bad week of practice before Super Bowl XLII, this is definitely music to my ears.

I don't care how much we whip Denver as long as we win.

If we win 2 ugly 1 point games in a row to get to Indianapolis then that is all that should matter to a fan.

Good news, but it all comes down to how Brady looks right before the game Saturday night. I remember we discussed it here last year after the Jets game...you could just tell that Brady was in a weird mood. Maybe too tight, I don't know. He looked that way before the Super Bowl also.

He was mad they lost the coin toss before the superbowl...that was way too much..

The last time I read about Belichick being loose and smiling prior to a play off game, it was SB42 against the Giants.

Brady hates losing to his older son playing Chutes and Ladders. That is who he is. He is an ultra-competitive pain in the *****. I remember the way he was before the 04 Colts Divisional. He was a psychopath. Banging head on helmet and these goofy primal screams. That game worked out well didn't it?

This convo about Brady's mood before a game seems silly to me.

I don't remember it that way at all. Wasn't there a story that he actually stopped a practice because he was so disgusted?

Don't forget, Broncos just beat the number one defense, so they will run the score up on our bottom-ranked defense.

Yep.

Good practice week usually means good game.

Let's hope for a defrocking of Tebow and his Teboner followers.
