Play from 0:04[0:04]" PFW in progress. -- Because I really are you. Yeah usually. -- PFW in progress. Fred Kirsch. I think that we opened a big brown book. To our newest fastest but he's so Paul Perillo did I notice that. No I -- I don't know I didn't -- the doctor. Oh there are swallow a lot of depression along with a lot of pizzas. That's the I had a bad hand and these are you work. Homosexual community flaming -- Andy Hart. Now we're not homosexual and we are willing to learn yet Dave's is simply especially -- now anyway. My hobbies are. The NASCAR fans were. That's why my guys my -- and you're calling it. PFW in progress -- part of the Patriots football network. Okay we're anxious to know bright stars beginning was so -- you would -- you speak English barely well sounds good. Yes he's made some good."

Play from 1:19[1:19]" I don't jump right into an apartment speaking English and we are here it is quite a happy giving a little early every one. Will be off tomorrow actually. I decided to let everyone have a you know giving normally I I dont usually work excuse me. Thanks it."

Play from 1:39[1:39]" I figured this it would economy every day people should that time at home they can't -- given. But welcome everybody. -- your call email is email web radio dot com. Web radio. Dot com. Away. 534. Getting ready for the Steelers game it is it should be a real game. The pundit. Talk about locally but Italy. People and looked over to the game being one highlight of the weekend. Or dark here at stadium. Oh. -- don't -- it again I think like last week. I think like the week of lord comes down to the quarterback. I relieved you know going to be playing better it's going to be that rob parker or are going to be that out because oh. I think. You'll -- legit. I think that. The question will be can Cassell. -- and continue his progress in making. You know under pressure. And on the other hand -- the Patriot. You know get to bedrock burger and make him get rid of the ball quickly. Kind of eliminate. What he does well all right guys. Able to avoid the -- and make plays out of the pocket it will. I don't you think a lot of areas here are using -- as a measuring stick for. It's a great story would hate to doing but how realistic is it yet they can be both high and there because of the -- they're playing better and everybody that there was a power change right -- luck of the charges when they were still a contender. You know -- loss to Indy and Indy had started to be back on the rise in that you know could probably be 1. It perfectly legitimate. Measuring. The people assume the Steelers are what they are they played the -- Roethlisberger in there. They're going to be in the post season they haven't changed try to figure out with a pitcher Wright and Womack -- he legitimately a 300 yard tight pastor who -- What this team on his back and carry on radio like you know anyone that jumps down the throat. -- measuring -- go what -- do to. Keep proving. -- much if if I had that game the Patriots lose all all of sudden everything that -- down the toilet at -- quarterback. But. Talk about the team as a whole you know -- the Patriot. Legitimate contender to do damage in the playoff game -- I mean because all young quarterback go to the -- and get -- I -- down. Like. That game -- You know Panama but you include your right to beat you go. While I think it's a big yet but I think it's a bigger quick -- don't play well. They get blown out. You know -- day you know don't hopes for an you don't want them to blow -- I don't know TV show use that you don't want to win -- now I know I'd rather see them win. Twenty to ten at 830 what -- misspoke if he'd."

Play from 5:14[5:14]" I was like. Before we continue because I think the topic measuring stick stuff but -- just to update everybody that might not be aware. On the Patriot announced officially read that. Matt Light will not be ended. ESPN is reporting dad he and Trotter oh we're fine 15000 dollars but. Neither will be -- for the game that's good news for the Patriots. We -- based on the consistency of the -- the right call I think it's Rollins that we ought to respect ended right. Well that was. Like. No light on to -- in the physical act I think it deserved a suspension just like I dot com. Why that the Jacksonville. Right and it and it suspend him so they -- suspend him and I don't think they should have been -- had to go together. He didn't get the spent a couple weeks go like it. You know that's one bit of news good -- was immediately by the way I I respect that. Yet it was short one but he EI and a large media contingent around him and sort of -- Didn't get into the -- whole lot just. I don't even know the use -- not real proud but he kind of said he he wasn't happy with the way he handled himself -- that's not what you want to do out there on and then it but that's a bad move on. And and a Latin audience that he at the top guys are great says that all of that yet but he does that went in the midst of like yeah -- it's one of those that it -- me every single time you know like when I played I have no formal training. And the little -- in the in the background. Makes me laugh every -- many Gary would you do me a favor and go to the the Diet Pepsi. Or. There. I have a lot of water. Which. -- Unique. Machines and only got two point 5. Are so good news good news good news and tactic in particular in this morning as we talked about yesterday you need to. Tackle. Present and accounted for. Any other news today. Obviously a lot of -- doctors and the normal. Rite of passage Wednesday -- talking about the similarities of Pittsburgh it was he over the years. Dick LeBeau defense hasn't changed and went back two days. In Cleveland -- days in Cleveland at even went back some scouting report. Check that out and yeah it's amazing the names all changed the linebackers Greg Lloyd and Kevin Greene in. You know which he guild and in Saudi -- Harrison Lamarr Woodley and James barrier but. And -- and he said they both sides of the ball. He said that's why that -- as bad -- Older going back -- Brady are. Brady. Record. -- outstanding but I can ointment it was a 11 in Horry or Roethlisberger four. -- having me or what the won loss was terrible lot. -- 2000 court LDP. Won that at least sport one misses under Belichick. Well. At least or one thing in my. -- Great quarterback. They'll that that game but I'll check it out to -- I don't want to go to. -- plated -- that's why I think this. 12345. And I didn't. Now that one law. I remember. All. I mean he'd. You know that the pressure he could barely get a and they were all over the Patriots they -- they came to play that day yeah they won from like the get go out physically at the break guys hurt Matt Light broke -- ligament in no different and one game. Yeah. That was that was equally my I was early in the -- five. But got that call other than that one loss you know always been fickle those. How -- the Patriot overcome. The pressure in the other or. Well they really with a victory. For the most part you're talking about how they responded from now lost on -- Two months later to -- half months later and championship games in team. In the Patriots put 41 on the board and I -- that -- really great job that day. Taking advantage of triple mile Lowe's progress -- but that -- used that against him and they yet enticed into the line. And went over the top a couple of times I think what you need to do against Pittsburgh where it is really protect well. And you need to take some shots they have allowed this season one pass of forty or more yards -- that was. Deflection by. Peyton Manning to Reggie Wayne and -- typical. Day out during the year. And really during the that they don't have recorders. If you you can be aggressive and yeah KI NS I yeah right but to have Ike Taylor and DJ towns and then. William de Ian and some of the guys they put out there most McFadden column yet. I mean that that's pretty impressive but. They are they'll -- the numbers don't say it. I think you can beat them down the Yankees installed at all you control the ball in the if you if you protect all that action. Nine yards -- ago. The pitchers are pretty evenly matched with Indian. -- How typical -- I there were very fortunate I think yeah Roethlisberger threw three interceptions and intuit and in particular one of them was a throw in reception by. He threw one late in the first half. That thought completely changed the tenor of the game I think I want to say Pittsburgh was up 177 at the time had the ball worst that was going to happen if you don't are you going up ten. Two interception deep in his own territory. Manning as he often does make you pay late in the half just before halftime 1714. Big turning point Pittsburgh regained control in the second half and appeared they had again had the ball with the lead in the fourth quarter. And it Andy -- in receptions and a short field and again meaning -- Benjamin. It's one of those games I think if you look at the stats and and that the better team and you look at the scoreboard you would on Pittsburgh won that game. Was there anything in particular that. Roethlisberger into those and with that don't have. I can tell you wanted to in the first half -- bonehead play but it can't specifically recall all the ones I couldn't I was style of play that. That in used I don't know if that. The cover two. You know what Pittsburgh has not running the football all the way to the past I think that's affecting them. Note no doubt but. It was a three game stretch against the Giants. The Colts and someone else that Roethlisberger threw. Seven interceptions 88 interceptions three game. Or come. Together you know they won one game. It was 11 of the games that he played badly and got thrown eight interceptions in three games -- you know you can't take that out. But the other eight games he's been really really -- consistent -- and it. -- three game stretch you know he's battled injuries. All -- getting killed -- yeah he started he's basically with a shoulder injury hasn't gone away. So that the Patriots get some heat on Brian threat in school Redskins. Yeah he only played -- played half or one victory. So. Hewitt the -- Go up it gets paid what."

Play from 13:18[13:18]" You know what game play what do you rate of forty do what you do I do what I do and that's get to the quarterback because I think if you get mad at you when. That's simple and write what they do that's what they've done for fifteen years. If you can't if James Harris and -- and it again right like he did last year here at body later -- right on the Andy Hart team of you university of the show up. But now as we that ad nauseam Lamarr Woodley is a big part it is now only two guys that make that significantly harder when you have. 212 that others don't gave me -- though that the going to try to really and he he he -- And so. It is going to have to get the ball out as quick as possible that reply now will be interesting to see what they do with Paul -- If they're he he's an aggressive guy he want -- line of scrimmage making plays. Are they going to do that and -- Placed outfielder in -- or. -- anecdotal you know moreland who the approach or different things in the back it would he's not as. I don't think he's as valuable when he's twenty yards down field his value to me Saturday of the line of scrimmage making plays. Picking off passes in the garbage all. Hines -- have a great season or -- But he also getting. A lot of lack floor that he guilty yeah -- you know -- cup tie citing people down field blocking and he's really headhunter. He's he's as a wide receiver he's he's as much headhunter is -- Probably. Four. And takes pride in and I think if he played for the New England Patriots he would be the most popular Patriot on the field. I think he's a Rodney Harrison type in terms of that were kinda pushes the envelope. But I also think he's a Troy Brown type in that when you need to play each is a tough football player it. I think he would be banned favorite plea that. Any problem with the wealthy war having a big game you know shutting down the run is probably. You know in the bag the -- will be able to do that."

Play from 15:14[15:14]" While I don't know about in the bag but I'd be stunned if they were on the ball the because I think this front shown they're pretty good I think you're better suited to stop and Mewelde Moore when you have a guy like -- on the -- more more as a threat on the back the leadership the as bills that kind of a Kevin ball guy. There -- obviously better suited to have. Drug -- treat him around. On I'll be -- this game is won or lost for you know I just don't think they're going to make a lot of plays of those running backs. OK so. -- of injuries in the -- with the the guys we talked about that aren't very Good Friday night -- I -- one -- a broken forearm and is questionable and the other 1. Taylor McFadden did not play net and one as a broken for so you could play but even if he plays he's going to be affected. -- it will it's that more court today we have to do our -- I don't think either way yeah that couple on your thought they are ready on the running game. With Mewelde Moore I I think that. Indies right and I don't expect Pittsburgh to rack up a lot of yards on the ground but I do think more dial. Might be more conducive to giving the Patriots problems than Parker's not even -- parker is fast. I I think debate they have dealt with that lead back type -- the kind a third down back deck and to a bunch of different things and used the used in a variety of roles. Occasionally give the Patriots trouble. But I would handy here right the way the Patriots front has played I don't really expect -- one -- rack up by anywhere near a hundred yards at this game looks a little too simple on paper yeah me. Which means we'll probably be wrong and I never saw explains the coming because it looks like. The Steelers don't really have the dogs to run the ball right now the Patriots stop the run. Roethlisberger has been throwing it 3540 times a game the Patriots stop the pass own terms of that match up all right there. You -- you know what's going to happen and then. You pretty much say if they can protect Cassel. They're going to be able to throw the ball on the defensive today not that good Moss is make him plays Welker you know it all feels like it's it's coming together. Almost two obviously and probably going to be -- and kind of the way -- games have gone a lot of times recently we've had games. Where were predicting the final score or that the final read very accurately. But how it gets there. Has really nothing to do with what we've really thought the -- Might be another want to -- respect it's going to go this way. And it doesn't really and you know maybe to bring the ball effectively and David Patriots have any problems -- him up the pressure but they still that the newest cover them up and they can't move off I was sure that I know you like these little taste of flavors from the locker room and Kirk all of them. Bill Belichick very light locker room after press conference stopped with Kevin ball and and Randy Moss and they. Laughing and pointing in like for gesture Hawaii like yeah at five -- minute then he walked down the other end up with Pierre Woods and Jerod Mayo and has a similar kind of laughing and pointing well."

Play from 18:17[18:17]" And in the hallway was not a way to. Shoot something -- actually at hello and it wasn't you. Now the yes hello oh. Era in. I told you PFW has nobody in 2000 with though. None whatsoever. He's been extremely. -- of restaurants. And helpful in every way possible I -- this week I usually get here knew there -- on newsstands now if current copy of Patriots football weekly. Coach speak Bill Belichick -- it now what Eric reality now some good stuff and then at a great cover."

Play from 18:59[18:59]" When mentioning. I don't mind the covers much -- I'd like that don't it was better than your three other ones that were were okay well anyway. Right so well -- great."

Play from 19:10[19:10]" A -- I com's email it to the other thing we want to talk about today the the speculation continued about the future of Matt Cassel and Tom Brady. I thought. Mike -- had a very actual Qaeda. You know. Bare bones approach to it today I don't think that. I think that you know he laid it up pretty well. You know he mentioned you know he contradicted. What Peter King wrote a couple of weeks ago about -- can't -- as a player and whether. Trading -- mini -- or guys. Specifically what they did do including Tebucky Jones and his team that is an option. The problem is you know until the time that freedom is still holding on to that that cap between. Brady and he if they get rid of the almost thirty million dollars between two players."

Play from 19:58[19:58]" We do need to clear up what we listen to the big show on the way back from TV yesterday and their whole -- clean cut you -- it will -- Klecko Richard Seymour you can -- First evolve. Every offseason you generally headed with some amount caps I don't know what theirs is projected to be right now I don't know if anyone has written matter as an idea but. There's a good chance it's it's a six million dollars or eight million dollars I mean at times it's been. Upwards of what Paul twentysomething million dollars though at times it's been. Far more than the franchise them not. But. With some maneuvering that route to take. I don't think it would be quite as dramatic as cutting Vince Wilfork and and doing all these things. And you only have to have that space available for the period of time under which your plan unfolds to trade him and deal though. February what is it 19 February 19 the franchise and you're already possibly before than working the phones you -- A couple teams in mind you clear the cap based he's on the books were fourteen million. Off the -- the erratically. By the time you're starting to sign free agent on March 1 or right thereafter."

Play from 21:07[21:07]" What are the things go out all the the book call them you know the -- financial situation is open. Every other -- each team knows every other credit situation as they cap. So. As another and you could use that leverage could bring the pay outs I want to make --"

Play from 21:28[21:28]" That's why and I think we've talked about having discussions before hand people you trust team's you know working relationship -- Yes this is certainly risk involved because there's a risk that something ball through and you have them on the map. But I don't think it's quite the risk of well you either have to decide to franchise Cassel or by migrants will sports yeah I mean that's Andy Hart argument right there that -- round -- there's no way it's going to be the difference between. Letting go one of the players that you need to. You know if they let it go oh -- if they elect all the player it's going to be someone that they deemed expendable. Either way in my opinion. Let go. Tom Brady anyhow that's but that's another argument and we need to get to that now but you're right about. The suddenly guys mark I don't think they -- do it because I don't think it really make much. But I'll pick it won't do it because. A fear of losing Vince Wilfork Richard Seymour or any of the front line starter that -- On. Now maybe you could in my prohibit them from B and renegotiate. An extension for Wilfork immediately -- could -- negotiate an extension and actually save money because we know how sometimes those -- that first year of the cap number actually goes down or at times -- say you do want to do an extension with Vince Wilfork and -- need. Say -- you're doing a front loaded thing I don't know you know there's a million ways to lose that close maybe it. It worked out there you open up the cap room. Allows you to keep Matt Cassel that franchise period of couple weeks that once that room opens homes that room gets rolled over and Vince Wilfork is announced as having signed a -- your -- with a ten million dollar roster bonus the first season that is cap numbers are more manageable moving forward and you make use of that fourteen million on two separate occasions there's a lot of things right on. With numbers. And accounting in all the -- actions and what -- is -- he -- as -- gonna keep -- irresponsible -- you can't have a contract -- twice within one year. Two to. -- my point is he would that wouldn't. I don't that's not relevant to ask not a -- domination Orwell. Well I'm in my little area we use the fourteen million making your roster bonus that. Is only on that year's cap and and you perhaps inevitable move forward. I'm just saying there's a million ways do these things and if they used to. They can franchise Matt Cassel and it and that's why -- quick to say I'm not and it won't do. I'm guessing that'll -- well. Does dependent I I'd I'd a topic it makes a lot I don't either. Now that the Olympic I don't put it this much fear of red. Where you a scenario of you know team might look at that day while I don't think we want to make trade right now. If the team wants to trade for Matt Cassel it's in the team's best to do so quickly as possible to get him into your team into US system in integrate all of that especially for quarterback. It would make much sense to wait wait wait to try to -- the Patriots hostage and then. Are you and I don't is getting quarterback much later in Austin and you want. That is much Spirit that but I don't think there's a there's -- fear. Of teams. Not necessarily wanting to give up a big money contract -- significant compensation. I think that you know I think the -- that while they -- guy might as something and I think I might be willing to give in five years and 35 million or something like that. But off -- it up for a third and five years and 35 million. You know so there's there's a little bit of risk that I don't think anybody's really taken every. Day. You know you restricting more money on restricted free agent. Player. Choi and an act gets all the editing thing is that the castle and bent out of shape because. I know what you want to trade me that's wrong and I you're restricting my ability on the free market because. You you have no intentions of keeping me yet I can't sign anywhere I want. I don't think that's going to happen again because it opened the castles in the catbird. SO is going to catch -- No matter what I think that's all he cares. Yeah I actually think it's the other you want I think the only that you really care about it ending up in a good place but I I think the money is almost irrelevant once the play somewhere -- he -- that opportunity. I gonna get paid whether he make. 8000007000012. Million he's making a lot more millions that he thought I mean. Back last August -- all the talk. I'm sure he and his mind on some level. My career he during the wait -- a free agent I'll have never played. Yeah I'll get another chance tomorrow but -- going to be on a veteran minimum type deal and Emma they encounter I've always based I have to prove myself and hope I get an opportunity. Two and -- month later -- it's all -- I'm getting millions and I am going to get to start. Though like pretty good for -- at. The bigger problem I brought you guys with this whole trade Brady or. And a white castle and we keep him around for a year to make in the start moving. Like the future become more important in the -- When was it about. While this guy's going to be my head coach I've signed him in two years that's a phenomenal on James is going to sign with a New York Knicks in two years in their open up all the cap space. -- the future or past the present in terms of -- and that's a phenomenon that almost exclusive to fail. After it get any money coveted -- away fans do in the NFL."

Play from 27:10[27:10]" I I think one of the reasons why -- it was because. -- all on our. Football. -- guys it's more manageable. And the ball. Elbow draft picks in baseball hockey. Go to college though. -- may not even about the that you don't know what they wouldn't get in no don't you call -- football you know I think you're out that they think it is open future. With the draft that kind of abnormal. I traded that start like skiing games. Have ninety tackles as a as a linebacker and they get traded collect a fifth round pick of people now. Pick for him and in most sports a guy who was a starter and is productive to that level. He's more valuable than the unknown of some guy you can take on the second day of the draft that might be yet -- a special team -- the grass was green always. -- in it and you're right it's crazy. Collection of it. Yeah I I just I don't understand I find it. And I know bill has always that you need to plan both short term and long term and I think you can do that responsibly. But. The cart before the horse here some point where it's more. I mean most of these people that are making these decisions are going to be around to enjoy the decision they think their. Prepping for which meant that -- was elected. AFC player of the week. -- well there is no such things anymore. Patriots quarterback Matt Cassel. Ravens the Ed -- And Raiders punt returner Johnnie Lee hit. Eight players in the -- offensive player of the week is also nominated for the FedEx air air apparently. And probably a few other -- but that he he has that great second time this year. And his one earned. Certainly. Good -- I've never seen any of them a little bit but I'll amend my memory will be him just saying. I'm easily -- and you know unlike Teddy and he he looks fast on the field. Not as fast and plays fast. I'm all right now Chris with a you do it."

Play from 29:28[29:28]" Okay got a cup so Chris. But the much and I trial which you gotta talk about it caught beyond. Yesterday show I actually download it -- into less static. But in the hospital all week it bothers the kind of six felt. I cannot believe them but unfortunately so are all -- that's pretty nil or anything. It's and then in the office. He's sort of the door a biopsy today autumn. A little bit of a growth about the -- about -- hauling it back all that --"

Play from 29:56[29:56]" that wishes to him. Very much don't go let him to the shall we wanted to get better."

Play from 30:01[30:01]" Actually it was not an awkward time and that I know you -- Do that argument you came back -- Eagle and intellectual. I don't the the Eagles -- quite. Guys but they're -- they're good guys that the only guy you listen to went on it -- that puck both don't buy it bought the team."

Play from 30:27[30:27]" It's not let them. Out. All but yet he got a -- known. But yet so you know it -- but good luck would appreciate it. I don't know -- but Matt Light did not -- been -- I did I actually -- at all and I expect it down about that would get -- about it. I kind of figure critically doubt it. Wasn't that went with the -- And you."

Play from 30:55[30:55]" Yes elation biblical the crowd to get the same thing that if -- going to assortment of Pittsburgh in. On the up steam coming out that the that they are. A pretty good defense solid thing is it their running game."

Play from 31:08[31:08]" Really doesn't seem to be quick and I don't pocket and apparently got more I think --"

Play from 31:13[31:13]" Arm. Slot on on the unit defense yeah I'm guilty of capital the -- and -- usually pretty good -- the mob so."

Play from 31:20[31:20]" Well you know. I am not worried about any running a word about how -- as well because yeah clearly."

Play from 31:28[31:28]" Yeah I mean -- and that's you know any -- another stop on Sunday that day out."

Play from 31:34[31:34]" You know I got I don't I start -- they allowed. To approach for the tree a short -- and that they a lot of --"

Play from 31:41[31:41]" I've been allowing play both quarterbacks to do it all year -- and a they have their issues in the second. -- definitely. -- that we can go and they made worse because of the injury it played out exactly how that we said in the front seven played well enough and get enough pressure on the quarterback. To overcome deficiencies in the secondary the answers now they don't -- pressure they don't have enough sacks and as such the secondary is getting -- it now and we didn't know what the offense was going to make up for. In that are coming in -- coming -- a."

Play from 32:11[32:11]" again I -- Forty point you figured you know Miami -- part of also Bartlett to time zone of 49 of forty point."

Play from 32:19[32:19]" Well -- luckily we -- that quarterback Brady who struggles at times."

Play from 32:24[32:24]" Another thing -- want to talk about that yesterday. You know let's not capital and and and you know why you know what what tree great old -- serious."

Play from 32:33[32:33]" Well our a lot of them are -- Crazy. People wanted to cut. In training and -- an agreement admitted. Yeah riding and I I wasn't a believer by now you gotta get rid of Brady."

Play from 32:45[32:45]" Outlaw I'm unless Brady really suffered a major setback which obviously -- don't know because."

Play from 32:51[32:51]" Or maybe. It happened played Miami. I. But designated Miami -- purpose of playing in Miami."

Play from 32:59[32:59]" Yeah I mean that's you know my three east. These are above and beyond I mean they are part and it I did too I thought -- more great -- that I thought I thought he should have been -- Yeah meet up until we."

Play from 33:12[33:12]" Plateaued in his development. -- other times you know. But who knew that after eight years of no -- right now one of the things that happen I think in the pre season you do you -- no we didn't really have. Any way of knowing is. -- the lack of of cohesion. Balls with the offensive line and with the receivers I think probably weighed in a little bit and Cassell made a point. And and I know that a little bit of excuse making is an element of that today but.

All the talk Turkey on the -- ability exit obviously with the Jets playing better. That the Jets and Giants both could be. In the conference championship no chance those things never work I know they have worked out to amazing how ever really even come close up that. First -- the Jets could end up the number ones that if you -- LL it great credit they've opened up hosting it that the conference championship games. I guess the plan is for to have one on Sunday at one on Monday. I agree I think it's terrible yeah it should be. But obviously it would be it would have them at the same date is no way to and that'll agreement he played 1 at 1 o'clock in the other -- could turn over. On which kind of reached in little. -- that hasn't ever I don't think every threatened. The Giants have posted a few conference championship games with the Jets have never I don't think been -- hosting the it is a -- that we can not have. While wasn't really about the jet jags as much as -- will be at the meadowlands and kind of a quirks that go. But Sunday and Monday in and I read on Florio. That has sought that figure and yet. Com but Florida today I was reading about eighty. You referenced it and he said that he thinks they should make that permanent. To have won one cup chipped chipped in once and it went on Monday. Because they can get both in prime time. Tight on money and I think that stood outside I think it's stupid to did. Alicia there's been on this skipper like three weeks. And little things that you always say it -- Iowa they'll never even the Thursday night games you know from Thanksgiving. November on actually. You're like those. Gimmick it -- anymore I don't watch them and I like -- I like watching neutral NFL game much anybody else but. They medical things to do think do an unfair. But I I think there's -- competitive. Yeah challenge -- get two days at a competitive advantage -- it definitely disadvantaged. For the teams and play. But then made -- ten days arsenic -- suddenly Lee potential almost like who I am I right. And in and that's a benefit when you play after that and it definitely a big benefit for the home team but we -- know the bottom line. The NFL network would be even last meaningless. I mean less meaningful about though I mean they do they were the only 21 Saturday night game.

Play from 45:31[45:31]" Okay in the first army unit. I don't know that was like a boxer -- Eric."

Play from 45:37[45:37]" Period right. Eric yeah I think he's okay. I think yesterday -- W felt like it was in the Twilight Zone. Talk about trading Brady perhaps cast as the of -- of the -- I. Lapping the tactic. I wonder what the hell is going on. Brady is the QB. The guy who fifty touchdowns last year went three people he's only what 31. He went undefeated in the regular. Against the are tougher schedule than we have. My quarterback but our team is really try to put him in the namely Tom Brady or Peyton Manning. Five weeks ago it was screaming for Cassel -- no -- all hate the as a franchise you know I guess -- I think he can get -- need to trade up the -- but -- big risk. Fourteen million token by some help for the secondary I would think. Look I realize that -- contract is up here we are going to get -- before but that the way things ago."

Play from 46:45[46:45]" And all like that and by the way you got -- Mayo or. Easily round pick you paid like. A million dollar probably total and if they think your -- and you could potentially go to the playoffs and beyond thanks to him and you know we'll look at what would happen if Brady went down well now we now. You look at them more tangible to you'll probably end up with a third or fourth round draft wreck as a conference -- old and you used. What Jeff is right being in writing and he brought the Brady haters -- the -- that Brady one witness at receiver and give that the castle. You're looking at it different outcome. He's like every big game at Miami this year by Rivera everyone's Super Bowl for a year. -- special. I your interest well but I hope all of this up kick in the look what Brady it would mark in when he comes back he will be in his prime. -- L."

Play from 47:38[47:38]" Don't discount that factor in these people discussion the fact that. But I feel like Brady has lost interest feel like he's going to you know those guys out of mind you know on -- I think more so before the injury in the way his personal life in the liberty. And also the theory that you know he's got a lot to offer he's going to be successful in any field and he's one of those guys that's going to retire on top that. 34. Or people are like doing the math and and well liked him three years of Brady -- at ten years of Cassel. I mean that that's a factor here. If if you felt like Tom Brady there was no questions asked he was going to play for the next. Eight years you can play at least 39. I don't think they would be half as many people and treat but I think people are worried that he could be two and done."

Play from 48:22[48:22]" people aware of people are all worried about Brady about you know the fact they don't know his the welcome back to beat a player that's part of it and you know. If you think it you know. But you know what Brady. You know. He is a special player you know you've got this guy it. You know our team goes besides when -- is on the field a lot to the marketing of the you know having Brady roster. You know it for the overall. But in theory so would Cassell -- is what you think he's going on the task of going to be the kind of superstar. That that Brady. I don't know already married he's you know. But he's a great story great story would would sell. There'll be a lot of sales opportunities there and the bottom line is if he throw forty touchdown passes three straight seasons. He'll be very marketable a part of marketing of a -- A quarterback. Is beyond the Peyton Manning is married and it dink and he's in every commercial I've ever seen. That's true that is true thank you."

Play from 49:28[49:28]" I just that much different than Brady play because what's -- what's playing well. Brady was at the top of his game. But he's coming off the meaning I'll IP Eddie and a -- so much better than play. Out of their act. I don't have answers. Cubs. But -- think anybody looking at Brady anything other than off the field. You know concerned like you said he doesn't want to play anymore. Match your opinion of that if that's what your opinion is by. And -- we've seen on the field tangible. Not even worth talking I think well for the Cubs are not that it's not fair to compare you -- to -- now too but not fair to compare Matt Cassel with Tom -- year 98 prepared -- 2100. Tickets -- and David tickets -- I think this team like hey better than eighteenth hole is. Usually. But I'm just talking about watching -- digest that you know that's -- throw -- Physically he's -- plays well I think that I've watched Tom Brady throw fifty plus passes at least two different occasions here and strap the team on his back -- it was a much worst team in the one America playing with right now. That that it's -- that doesn't matter mean it matters to marry the two batters. I'm compared to two quarterbacks and I felt like Brady played a lot better in 2001 for the balance the castle. Might have had two games the last two weeks better than any one game Brady had. Then maybe. I'll be willing to admit that bite but for eleven games and it's cool. Not. Indians -- and as a -- In India right guy won the cup I like felt body. You know I don't you try to -- I don't even know that -- we can just totally disregard that. Second of all I think he played pretty well are. No problem practiced all. I talk all he can't he gets and stuff from -- he did you -- in -- them. For is up because of upcoming feature he's working on where it talks of budget from players after the press conference at castle -- on those I know -- that a fist pump Wednesday's game till the medium mentally was not. Going to be -- Great. You know to be in trouble -- catcher by the way -- my projects art project -- The matchup of the week catcher and Lamar with. We've already met late take on the -- that is James and Lamarr Woodley is a new matchup and I think catchers they'll questionable presence there."

Play from 52:06[52:06]" Make the right and why did the Patriots game next Sunday night against the Seahawks get moved from may fifteen or fifteen as a resident of California. They do not show any of the Patriot games unless -- Monday night Thursday night or Sunday night game. If they were playing at night than we would receive. It on and -- but now that it's been moved. Will either be on fox CBS in the channel will show it and that they'll play that dog has yet if you could clarify why the move.

Play from 57:11[57:11]" Brady will be that guy once again next year. Request it is though how much of the talk any you'd think Brady really take to heart. Or do you think even cares what is being said about him possibly being rated about the team's franchise in his back up.

But my point is that the only scenario you would like to keep Cassell and ray Brady capped the real deal Brady is that it's virtually -- possible one you have to make it a cap on February. In February that before you really know Brady -- the owner. And it is mine and you cannot rate Brady Wally spurt right. This means you can not treatable or February. Coming to the grievance if they traded Brady while he was a topic of the team agreed to a while I was there while that. I don't think preclude a trade. About a guy who heard it right okay good good idea yet he wanted to -- So it is what it is if you release Brady nightcap at Torrey Horry has decided -- the franchise or not regardless of Brady wage. The Patriots -- that they want to trade Brady after February but the where the owner and it is very likely they will get -- long term deal. Even admit to make room when your salary cap for both of them is highly unlikely that Cassel would guard with the Patriots knowing that Brady bill on the I think we're going to have to get over -- the bottom line is he's going to play similar out I don't know exactly how to play out but he's going to be on another team.

The -- told have a good relationship with him along conversation and while all. Don McNabb manages every situation that interest only ever been involved.

Play from 1:37:28[1:37:28]" You know is that is the you know that after having time over in Philadelphia I really like I think the problem begins and would -- I think he's -- control that team completely. I don't think I think you know go back to when he was having trouble with a -- Guy -- got taken a year at least. You know took a couple weeks off for a month or whatever it was they came back. He really need to get out of coaching for awhile and to you know kind of reenergize. And figure out what one do we control of that team."

Why does he run the ball you know that the -- Lap is there with him I think he's terrific talent evaluating and the Eagles always always in the picture. And had something happen.

Pittsburgh Pittsburgh -- that might order -- those three and date both actually both Baltimore and Pittsburgh had very very tough. December's so they pay after having him. In that they have to have it and they'll get it. I just think they are a solid football team. Any team that as a rookie quarterback I always have my fears but. I think the yen and Baltimore's going well with Flacco and Atlanta's playing well Matt Ryan at that interest in the two of the top. Quarterbacks taken are actually doing what -- You know living up to their potential on the monitor so I like aka the way -- what's -- I don't like the waist and that is playing I'm surprised honestly that. Lewis is still -- over there but. You know maybe they'll change of the season although Baltimore's. Highlight Baltimore as well I think they -- against -- easily but I I'm going to take the points on the outside with Cincinnati because I think they've been playing competitive week. Lately. The game got out of control against the Pittsburgh very late but it was a twenty to ten game with less than two minutes ago. They had tied Philadelphia the game before and I think they won their only game against Jacksonville and before that -- trending in fact they haven't quit they played hard the last few weeks."

Play from 1:41:26[1:41:26]" I I think he's getting it done right. He's getting better.

I'll take them but not feel real good about it. Sales would regret about the things that. I'm going to pick this thing though because honestly I don't think Tampa -- as good -- record indicates. Wants is one of those teams that -- which they look horrible the next week it looked like. Gangbusters and that's why didn't pick him as last week it looked like gangbusters I think they'll I think they'll play well again this week Tampa Bay for what any bad team doesn't win two games in. Tampa -- went. Right. I have a lot of New York. -- Giants by three and a half. The New York Giants go to Washington beat up on the red -- Further stamping themselves as the best most consistent team in the national football season.

Fourteen into what the Giants are going to end up with us if things got him having a bad day I thought you going to come with like gambling numbers that -- so his own daughter write and edit me out the -- Goldberg we thought yeah I was I was looking for right there. I like the giant -- the Redskins are trending downward that the games they've won. Recently have been against bad teams and very tight games.

What they give up if he what you want popping 500 million yards -- all a couple of seventy yard touchdown this. You know obviously the Panthers don't have seen -- they're running the blow those two back but. The Panthers to get the win on the road I think the Packers are playing well right now yet -- and I can never. Tell with Carolina sometimes I think it was good sometimes I don't but they very and three of their -- but I think this week Green Bay does something and -- to win this game. Yeah there's two teams and it's green -- been impossible to predict on your time I think they're going by. An and I don't have a lot of faith in Carolina. And -- a -- take Carolina I'll take the points to win I'll write a dismal. It does get this one and --"

Play from 1:49:55[1:49:55]" I was really shocked at that game you know against the world they could not believe that Green Bay -- that point. Got to -- one of those games under the take rebate bounce back and in it when the game Carolina's all been very. Q. Did did did did it did okay -- go pack go. There inconsistent. Rock solid -- Atlanta performance at San Diego Atlanta charges by five. Very interest in game in. A hurry."

Play from 1:50:30[1:50:30]" got to hurry Michael. Burner -- big return. To the San Diego area. I am going to say that the Matt Ryan have the huge road upset. Even though -- the better record right so those significantly job. I think that's as imminent for a for a seven that's a good win on the road for them I don't hear what the records say that's a good win to go in the iron and get it done and they went. You stole my thunder. Andy on the Chargers picked there is going to go with the -- says well 'cause I think Ryan's playing great now I don't like the way to charges play in the -- norv -- and it -- so. Josh mcdaniels -- Yeah and you."

Play from 1:51:13[1:51:13]" I get San Diego in the game and going. Out lose again by pick -- and I think it's more talented by the worst coach. I'll take charges. I think you're right. When. But what they favored by five they don't cover. I've gotten there yet Denver. That. By seven and hey. I'll take that yet they're playing good solid football. Pretty much all the way around right now. Just the opposite is true -- I'm surprised -- the Jets the planned on surprised are -- as well but they are sort of in the non. And came here I'm a little surprised by how well the Jets are playing a secondary would still can army -- our New York and watch with the Patriots did two in the second half. But -- much shouldn't that Jericho can do the same thing with his receivers Randy Moss -- Wes Welker as well holidays that means they are picking games out of spite. I Denver to win the game. -- the Broncos. He always been object yet. I don't know here called -- Brett Favre comes on the TV behind me and -- gross double barreled birds that it. I I can't pick me here I don't care how much better they. You can't want for them to lose. If -- want to get back to hide go to number of the Patriots -- If Denver can't well Patriot season what happens. In my I would for a while the Patriots season they do well. I haven't this week they'll instead of spoiling our right tackle Eric you get -- to thank you. And if they can't or you say Eric -- eighty. Oakland. Raiders fight -- way. First on the rays at the B yeah creating something curators. About David meant when he that the Raiders will be back not -- by three over it."

Play from 1:53:09[1:53:09]" You know what an awful came but I think the graders are actually playing. For something I don't know what it is but they're playing in Kansas city's not I'll take Oakland's and the point."

Play from 1:53:21[1:53:21]" Yeah I mean. You know 54 points the Buffalo and as I had during the game last week I didn't think Buffalo is cable's going 54 points and a walk through. That's terrible offense to -- 54 point -- The Raiders can't be anywhere the Buffalo offense they'll take the Raiders. I guess I'll go with the rated. Vikings by three."

Play from 1:53:52[1:53:52]" The -- I will take the Bears to shut down Adrian Peterson and get the road victory Peterson. Now he's going to run all over the Bears take the Vikings. And the points. I'm going to take Chicago but not on real good about it. This was an unbelievable shoot out acted Soldier Field a couple weeks ago. Like fifty if he suffered a forty opens -- point -- So I don't really see Chicago shutting down Adrian Peterson is excuse me especially in Minnesota but I'm going to ticket that the Bears -- they do a better all around team. They might be in. To be the toss up game and to go with the home team that -- probably sound reasoning I feel. That he teased him by three and a half. Shore up -- Houston there. A secret reason. I'm going to go with you and as well Texas poses -- different teams that won their bad weeks but yeah like that wrote I I yeah I like Q has Damon looks to me like Jacksonville's quit. And they haven't even been schizophrenic this year they've just been plain bad so I'll take Houston has no plans to open up playoff driving by. They -- plaintiff to build two it's something better. I'll take the -- I gotta go with Jacksonville game. Are right. Who's making. With one game four minutes to talk about -- and a Sunday game Pittsburgh. New England. Patriots by one rotten -- cut that down. Worthless hot dog gets exposed as -- As I had earlier I think it comes down to a single match. -- measure -- Lamarr Woodley the rush from the right side. Mentally we'll get it done against the fraud James Harrison on the left and -- can get it done and I think he will often enough agent to put enough points on the board. To prove to the world that they are still a playoff contender. -- good physical win for them at home I think it's going to be a dogfight to the end but Matt Cassel makes a couple plays because the as the time and they went. This is going to be a great game it's a playoff game on that super -- and I think. The way new England's offense can score points I think bill. Out -- the Steelers offensively I think that's -- get -- on. Us. The what the up at. Pittsburgh Byrd picked up that. Okay it's big -- like up again one I think they shocked the world our world I I liked I liked dealers. How like the Steelers defense is slow down that Patriots offense enough and I don't have the -- the Patriots offense can do and I mean Patriots defense -- can do the same. I don't think that don't overwhelm. That offensive line in and overwhelmed Cassel but. I'm not sure that he makes enough for those big third down the road you don't need to do against Pittsburgh. To put enough points overcome. The defense's struggles right now because I'm not I just don't have a lot of faith in 95. A Titanic it's gonna go to wire like it but I think Pittsburgh and finally went to -- a note on the corners for a sports won the injury. Eric's favorite corner of one of two -- recorders in the William could play. If the injuries hold true and Fernando Bryant could see significant run against Randy Moss and we all know how that turned out in training camp. Yeah well."

Play from 1:57:13[1:57:13]" I think that a lot of the game comes down to how Josh mcdaniels call it because I don't depict it does to David do they have to keep. The Pittsburgh he could get in on their heels. Hurry up off and try to keep -- in. You know try to keep them you know by the third quarter a little bit out of breath. In a -- quick -- but you know what they do already but you know to. Really quick play you know what about the running game. Georgia running them -- I backing a more suspect. We've been apprised report different time yeah we think this is going to come down to explains -- they can out run trying to get run -- can run the ball out of its draw you know that type of running the a lot of -- in Miami and I think it but I think he got to get the run up field and kinda. You know keep -- shut up the field and kind of move by them you know screens draws. Get a key moment does that give his lineup and throw that in -- Pittsburgh Newcastle on them -- yeah whatever out of market. He throws very well on the run of very different talking about the union that. -- running running around. Probably more accurate on the run and it's in on the part I -- a surprise everybody and I'm going to pick the Patriots -- I I already wrote down you gotta go back and it crossed it out ball all right so that idiot or should of PFW RI. Know showed tomorrow. -- Friday. -- obviously. John Maine's right we will see you next day."
