Tedy loves the Squirrel

Edelman should be on his way to the Pro Bowl.

Julian Edelman, for example, reminds me a little bit of myself on the other side of the ball. He came in as a QB, having little knowledge of the WR position. When I came in as a DL, it was the same with the LB position.

Rodney Harrison also recently said that beside Brady, Edelman is his favorite player in the league.

I love his description of the Pats' locker room as a "pressurized cacoon." Sums up their philosophy so well--the coaches are on these guys all the time, physically & mentally, to work and keep improving. So the nonsense "pressure" of outside distractions genuinely doesn't faze them. It's awesome.

"Who is better for this team right now, Andrew Luck or Matthew Hasselbeck?"

Shocking.

34 receptions 399 yards 3 TDs

Pace: 136 receptions 1,596 yards 12 TDs

No idea if he keeps that pace
up, but it'd be the second greatest Patriots WR season to Moss 07.

Next chat someone ask Tedy when is he going to start his coaching career in NE.

Shocking.

If Has plays we can't rely on those 2 big INTs per game Luck tosses up for grabs

You can't teach instincts!

...and the internal pressure of excellence, winning, performing, learning and improving is unrelenting.

Like many have said, New England is not an easy place to play. Its not for everyone.

"Edelman should be on his way to the Pro Bowl. It's impossible for me to get anyone to give him up in a trade in my fantasy league, and believe me, I've been trying."

I have no interest whatsoever in fantasy football, but the thought of playing FF against Tedy Bruschi is, I've got to admit, pretty darned cool.

I've heard him asked that and he basically says that while he misses the locker room and loves working with younger players, he also loves his ability to spend time with his family. As hard as players work, coaches have to do even more to be successful. He's not sure that he's ready to commit to such a time-intensive obligation, because the only way he knows to do anything is to go "all in".

No, but I'd enjoy watching Ninko or Chandler take him down hard (easier to sack Hassy vs. Luck). Then we can hear about it from his b*itch-arsed brother on D&C Tuesdays.
I think the whole "on his death bed" drama from Matt Hasselbeck was ridiculous...it made me really want to see him fail.

Edelman's favorite nickname for himself is "Squirrel".
