backs becomes bring defensive extra guys regular
Their extra defensive back just becomes a linebacker in their blitzing scheme. In sub, it becomes the same blitz, but it?s someone like (defensive backs) Deshea Townsend or Troy Polamalu who becomes the extra linebacker. It?s really a linebacker blitz. It?s the same two guys they?d bring in on regular defense, but they?re actually defensive backs because you have receivers in the game.
ball becomes breaks corners factor gets guy hands plays seeing sees smart though throwing thrown
He has outstanding ball skills. He's a smart player. He anticipates well. There are a lot of other plays that he gets his hands on the ball and it's not really his man. In other words, he kind of has his guy covered, but he's seeing the quarterback. He sees the ball thrown and then he breaks on the ball . . . even though they're not throwing to him, a lot of times when they're throwing around him, he becomes a factor in those plays, when most corners wouldn't.
concerned everybody plenty sure teams
I'm sure the other 31 teams have things that they're concerned with today, one way or another. We have plenty to do right here. I'm not really that concerned about what everybody else is doing.
against bay best bit decisions evaluation final friday game giants green players quite sure win
I'm sure that we'll look at some of the players that didn't play as much in the Green Bay game (last Friday night's 27-3 win at Lambeau Field) a little bit more against the Giants and try to get the best evaluation that we can as we make our final decisions at the end of the week. I'm sure that the players who didn't play as much against Green Bay will play more than the ones who did play quite a bit against Green Bay. Let's put it that way.
bay bit green players sure younger
I'm sure our younger players will play a bit more than they did in the Green Bay game,
anybody beats somebody until
I mean, they're 7-0, ... They're undefeated. Until somebody beats them, I don't see how you can say anybody is any better than them.
credit early knew players turned
I knew we could play better than we did early in the season. It's a credit to the players that they've turned things around.
group history league means none patriot previous respectful teams terms
I'm respectful of what this group has accomplished, what the previous Patriot teams have done and what this means in terms of league history and all that. But none of that really means anything in what we do from here on.
guard hold offensive sees snap somehow tackle whether
It's somehow on the ball. Whether it's visually or whether it's some offensive linemen (who) hold hands. The guard and the tackle hold hands, so when the guard sees the snap he flinches or squeezes or whatever,
best
The best way I can characterize it is that he's day to day.
good runs strong tough
That guy's really good. He's strong. He's a very strong runner, he runs through a lot of tackles, he's got good balance, he's very aggressive, he's a tough runner. I like him.
bad best decide exactly good guy news offense perfect players skill utilize works
That is the good news. The bad news is that there are a lot of things that he has to perfect technique-wise to be able to utilize all of those things. We'll see how it all comes together. We'll have to decide exactly what the best way try to use him is and also how that works in with the other skill players that we have on offense and how the whole thing meshes together. It is a long process, but he is a good guy to work with.
although basis collective game perform score team ultimately
It's not about any one stat or any one unit, although they are all important. It ultimately comes down to how your team is able to perform on a collective basis for 60 minutes. That's what the score reflects; that's what the game reflects.
minute
I'm not going to do a minute to minute evaluation,
