Asante Samuel “hates how the Patriots treat their players”

[sb1]

Here we go again with this crap.

 

[sb1]

LOL clownish excuse. I love the burn he got in response “that 6 inch vertical is off the charts”

 

[Triumph]

Assante is partially right.

Brady hid all the bad drafting and letting go of productive players like Almendola and Trent Brown.

 

[JarOfMayo51]

He's not entirely wrong, but I really don't care about the opinion of someone who got "Get Paid" tattooed on his arm and dropped an interception that would have cemented a 19-0 season, as well as his legacy

Guys who are so money focused think that not getting paid top dollar is treating players poorly

 

[italian pat patriot]

If he pick that ball we have 7 Super Bowls wins...

Instead...

I hate to admit it because I'm really not a fan of his, but he isn't entirely wrong here. He's actually more right than wrong, IMHO. The margin for error is a lot smaller for BB now.

I think what that response from him tells me is we care a lot more that he didn’t catch that int than he ever did.

What’s next finding a bunch of ex Patriots on Sunday to come on TV and rip Bill and the Pats organization and for an ESPN anchor to say they hate their coach and we mean it this time!

And we’re playing the Bills in Buffalo again just like last time! Full circle...

Well, they do always teach DB's to have short memories. Lol

But seriously, I'm still seething!

He's probably right about the INT being a little too high. And there's no guarantee he would have been in bounds...

Watch Belichick draft Asante Samuel Jr....

If he caught this, they'd all be immortal.

that is one of the issues i have with egomaniac players that have "Get Paid" tattoes on their arms

If you want to talk a big game and think you're king s***, then make that interception and back it up... but nope, cant back up his ego with actual play on the field

 

[PP2]

This thread exposes past trauma that I greatly prefer to leave completely repressed.

 

[sb1]

And I believe it was A$ante that was supposed to cover Tyree on the helmet catch play and he left him free for some reason. We all know what happened after that.

I'm pretty sure any beef he has against the Patriots and Bill is mutual.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

If anything, Asante should be blamed for not covering Tyree on that play, which was his responsibility...

It's easy to put the blame on that game on Asante, but c'mon, the offensive line was horrendous. That's the reason we lost.

 

[AQPE]

Drafted in the 4th round, got a huge contract from Philly based not just on his performance but also on the attention he got playing for the Pats. Obviously no one will ever know if he gets that money if he is drafted by the Lions, Browns, etc.

Too bad for him he is butthurt for the rest of time by his failure on that fateful drive; he knows as well as anyone that he could have been the all time hero if he makes the INT tough catch or not we've all seen plenty of guys make much harder catches for INTs, and the question about his responsibility on the Helmet Catch play is certainly out there. Twelve years later and they guy isn't over it, I bet he oesn't go three days without someone bringing it up to him. So sad, too bad, oops!

Edit: looks like a couple of other folks brought up the Tyree play ha ha

 

[signbabybrady]

I've read about him defending this play on a few occasions but I have never read what he had to say about the Tyree play.

I agree with him on the missed pic being to high but what say you about missed coverage?

For the record I think Zant is underrated around here and everyone should ease up on him he deserves better from us.

...we have 6. Dunno about you... but...

 

[RobertWeathers]

I really don't give a **** what A$ante says but I post on the thread regardless.

The Pats roster management strategy was one of main reasons they had the greatest 20 year run in NFL history. Not every decision ended up being the correct one but collectively it worked tremendously. Can understand why an individual player may not like it though.
