And pilgrims will make enough plays for San Diego when his days -- It would have been because I think they do the same thing today don't stay with Tom Brady right there lot of billable.
It's the F third -- Dennis and -- on a patriot Monday it's the quarterback -- we kick it off with our friend -- science and good morning professor they'll call -- the professor for --
good morning guys well you don't want do whatever it is banned I but I thought that. The game was came down to the wire which most patriot games still in the playoffs -- space that. And the ball was Lutheran and have harbored a proper result is going to take Tom Brady and I didn't. So -- had two chances to win it or at least get applied in in belt and -- and -- chances and I keep belt because. Marty schottenheimer made some stupid mistakes -- became and those mistakes impact on them and that's what the effect as going to lose -- the.
the the post season record of Marty schottenheimer takes yet another -- that's a good point discussed in the second but consider the cards the Marty schottenheimer sat down at the poker table across from bill belichick that he had in his hands the best record in football the tops into the playoffs home field advantage -- the bye week. Field position most of the day the offensive MVP arguably the best defensive player in the National Football League ten pro bowlers and by the way -- 11 point lead and he somehow. Choking away what what what. Move that he made would you classify is the the most memorable Marty meltdown moment.
Well -- was so what do through the red flag army interception fumble return was no reason that problem wagons in measures just accepted medicine in the way to play deep sense from -- point on. But I think because -- through the flag in the in what I -- you have to be an idiot to be up there in the -- to not to build a he -- up that -- overturned there -- certain place that you say okay you -- quite -- no choice maybe there was mistakes along a lot of that there is clearly and we all saw. On nine different replay angles of -- that there was there was not a to be reviewed there. To me -- an outlaw them a timeout and that time -- was not Paramount there really came back to -- them at the end became. Also applaud the great second puppet on the -- of attempted another play along the spotlight. We get another six or 78910 whatever was because of 50 or your local.
they would screwed that up though Eric parker what a caught the ball cut in side. I don't go to.
And I also those who don't worry we're you've watched a game in in in adult today admiral shipment on come in on a coach at one -- one united to have a lot of -- buying but. At the end of the day you know it's very rarely -- built -- 60 governor meltdown if you know whether it be ahead but whether the -- I don't know of sure on the other foot meant fourth down play well. Would the secretary of late in the picture just drop the ball knocked the ball down would be -- you know that's another question you have to ask yourself.
Only -- days ago under the --
There was didn't have a Troy brown on both -- on the same play. I mean you know not only play it -- but turning into his best defensive Superman's suit diploma. The far more and they just. It's amazing to me that clearly the charters guys are the best team in football on paper they are mean. Let's face it that you felt that yesterday all day long with the Sokol also close so close but. This is the patriots blueprint for success keep became close -- keep play. You're there and then all of a sudden you put it arms and and -- into the first half of the in the second half you know he's I'm not kidding you when it says the best best big game quarterback that we've seen in on department. But all of sudden Don what you might be the best big game quote it's ever play begins to keep --
Barbara what is a quarterback is more difficult to do whip Tom did at the end of the half and at the end of the game when you have been. Let's -- struggling or an even. For most of the other parts of the game it's -- forget John they know -- past and they -- your breath and there and they are coming actually it's not like you about a role all day long and has ruled righted the have to general -- the the end of the fourth quarter he had to elevate his game substantially from what was -- to the game.
Well yeah I mean it's it's even step was struggling I don't know. It is arm's bothering him or not mean to me at times where you may is made some throws were you sick so does that not help beat Tom Brady Macon -- broke his shoulder has been on the injured list over the last I don't know how long too little -- years right and I don't know I don't know something Auburn avenue market value -- domain -- any but he collected -- over. It's it is bothering him any play in the way movies planet makes it even more impressed with what he's still on but. You don't pay -- much the same thing against the Baltimore ravens I think all of these quarterbacks that there -- going to -- really great deep sense is they did. In -- going to be just and knock down drag out at the game. It was Altman came up big again became you know of course you know touchdowns and Payton just with a first down throw but I would just tell you that. You know that's the type of thing that makes Tom Brady special on and I don't it -- all the way to put it means that no other quarterback I think has ever had this kind of success at all. Joe Montana has had great success in. But you know Tom just continually posit any in the middle of his career I mean. And Andy's doing it really was pedestrian ones papers are not great I mean they're good I mean and Troy brown has been. In the repaid treatable poverty in which he's always involved in something and so I just think it's an amazing feat that you know how they did yesterday what they did. Game was on the line who made the plays and and really the -- Reche Caldwell was unbelievable -- something that they haven't done. Very often but when they won the recount they used to play they go to the former San Diego charger of great rose recasts like. I just stated you know only use is not enough superlatives to give this team to do that player to -- the coach -- you know what they've gone I mean it's just the Beijing in my eyes how much success they've had simply.
What's the rate of success when a team installed the game plan in in this case keep -- too tight -- in max protect for Tom Brady don't let -- kill him before the first -- is over it does work and they set up plan B and the go to plan -- and are successful with it that's a real high rents access to make that switch in -- is that.
Not even have a player that can handle a switch midstream and that's what we're flexible import. Well where where what you own merits.
He played in play out sometimes lights out. Its armed Islamic and other drug testing since suspended that.
It and epithet but you know. The two players that really didn't get a lot of credit yesterday and deserve our home mountain of credit to you know on this -- measure we -- them play well catcher deserves to obtain Baltimore -- America -- something interesting happening haven't offered to Lyman called the passing of a disputed a lot of weird things could happen yesterday's game but. It all wrong when you drop back as many times they exist at all and so on an outcome will give them water credit he should be is that the great -- Russian team. And he got the -- and yesterday but not nearly. What I think all of us expected especially with human aren't drop as I thought it was going to be the Minnesota game plan that turned out to be just that.
Were you surprised that schottenheimer went -- on the fourth and 11 in the first quarter. And was that a sign that he was trying to prove that he's not that symbol Marty that he was going to take the shackles off when he was going to go forward on this day.
We ought to -- take the shackles -- to be artists would be guys because you know cam Cameron profits quarter. Because the look at -- coaching job but he's been interviewing all over the place this by actually in the chance together it go to government positions overlook but. You know and -- he made -- point for everybody to know that it is -- wade Phillips the threat of managing football game. And at a youth football and determine whether an optical 14 11. And that was another moment light bank that was indicative of of a bad decision because. Especially because it didn't work out but in -- more -- wear what in the game where they had the ball. And and and ultimately be the result there's -- have there was another decision was wrong -- part of a cellular -- with -- and with his relationship with Beijing respected general manager out there. I would not be surprised that he's not -- in the next 48 hours two weeks.
What's not can we move on we move on to the to this it. Foregone conclusion -- that's what more questioning him at into the super bull -- Tuesday to Sunday no that was the Super -- just one dishonorable this next week is just another is it you know. I'm starting to feel sorry for Peyton Manning already people I don't know what you.
It's bill Clark or buy tickets for its -- so opportunity Shannon said yesterday to exercise the demon now we'll tell you this. -- he'd dug an exercise the demon then you could go far for which you know the criticisms is going to be just all over the place. Because it was unable to win -- home. Playoff game against the team
he has no chance that if he's already is already in the fetal position under -- and please tell me it was a nightmare I think he wanted to. The charges went. On the road just so we wouldn't have the based telecheck and company.
Obvious target right now guys and I'm sure you -- as Thomas went on -- mean the chargers or a total football team and and you know you get out of there with a win after it lost earlier along that's an amazing accomplishments on telling you. He wants the home. In -- Indianapolis was cheering and celebrating yesterday that they get a chance to play the AFC championship at home. It's it's got a classic matchup written all over you just hope that was up with -- you know Payton played going on -- in Allen's in you know that you -- in the last couple times and I don't know -- triggered any -- output bill whipping about that I was about the is Britain's wait to support games for an. Mountain last minute one and in this crazy and -- Chelsea's where everything has been so unpredictable. You know who would have thought that their deepens were played as good as they have though the first two games in the -- on the precipice -- onto the chip but he. Super -- at home nobody would've thought that -- or file which -- but I -- not yours truly certainly.
It bigger Tony dungy you're just a cold supporter are you encouraged or discouraged boomer. By the fact that was what you said Peyton Manning played poorly the last two games the defense bailed him out and yet they still want.
Completely and are encouraged you have because you know what they suspect in the used in the few weeks ago he said in a statement that after in -- an offense and he sent. I think they're really pissed dispute sent the players often. What if not it's something that not get a lot of play but he he said it and -- I know that it when he said he -- as he didn't want to say that but I think it was frustrated. Because it just throw three touchdown passes 128 and lose the game and used in funding those old crazy on them. So I think that that really elevated their deep -- of course pop standards at a big. Partners but with what's that this -- a pedestrian deepened -- this is not a defense that the it was a patriots faced last week -- of this not the Baltimore ravens beat. This is just this that this is an average deepen the best that is -- well over said because they played steep repair the -- agree. -- that's why they've looked as good as they did. -- you know this is going to be a different game planet that you took the pitcher I think it'll back to really trying to from the ball on the special look for moral lenient. Cordial and I have a huge game next week can -- that game -- alone.
I don't think anyone could look worse than Trent green in the -- got to look at Steve McNair. That it is awful the -- there was one. Accurate passed the throw one accurate person --
It meant a thing about this game in the negative is that you know we're sitting there watching it there eight guides in the box pops and systemic panova when Jamal Lewis. The prime -- want to do his best imitation Marty ball. But it was ridiculous so where was their basic you know why didn't you throw the ball outside wanted to throw the ball against these quarters like bank. And in Indianapolis our our our our average been -- recorders. I really thought that prime both wreckage of fossil called into crime was excellent he was there with the Baltimore.
Why why should we think belichick and Brady versus -- man and Tony dungy game should be any different. In the ones in the past in the playoffs and don't use the regular seasons different deal this is the post season why should this time be different.
bottom -- going to be different you don't want to consult I just hope it's a great -- just hope it's one of those classic games were both of these quarterbacks -- back important. You know I want to CP human trauma at the end of the game. In the week when it's it's going to be it's going to be unbelievable let's what is -- what is footballs to Seoul. Populous country -- that would an average huge -- next Sunday because of this -- the build up leading into it you know I would just -- you -- import it it's sort of predict these games that Peyton Manning his plate to support and not played great. And now he has his chance to exercise those demons and -- is going to be all week long and and you know there's one group of people that are standing in front of -- in the -- is you know is to cultural agreement between the patriots the some believe vote -- better than.
It's a what does Santa say off the air just before halftime that everybody has their when you guys him on the air. That JB was just lose it.
He was moved we're -- noted home -- are you don't go to was Sheridan Angie Sheridan and marina. Over eight lit New England grew at Pope wrote Burton what -- Kohl's own bullets it's where I think what else Scott the fact. In which she more. And it took one step across large firms and drop back into corporate yet. And they call that his own bullets and and Richard Seymour supposed to attack the attracted tension left tackle which he did. And -- tackled didn't respond by turning out in a big block you know odds. In the two of these guys were arguing over whether or not there should have been hop throw there or the over the picked up should have been in -- addition to prop up -- And Janet says no other should have been a blockage in the picked it up upbeat now arguing and I mean it was like that and an argument. And JP tries to Jakarta after the conference on parchment take care who did watch her do what it is too -- so the good stuff going on.
All right it's -- playoff pick of the week brought to you by DC -- digital federal credit union let's look at next weekend's ball games boomer I guess you're gonna go patriots.
There's some New Orleans in the Super -- would be great about that match up and I and I I hope it doesn't know we have CP yes. Are extremely happy with the final 14 so whatever the match it's going to be it's going to be a real huge Super -- Ross put. On the open knowing when the war on who will be a great story and that's weapons.
Is that true that fox pays more than CBS for rights that did -- to be NFC than you guys do. They do because they have a bigger market they should ask for -- fund them you know. You guys -- to sell you have to admit that. Yeah but you just feel like they are not of the same caliber as the final at least the final 3. In the AFC.
They -- no question that the ball well or in the air sea where the better better best teams could not none of those I don't thing. Any of those offenses could have handled the deep at the pressure that you would have seen. You know from a New England and gave Baltimore and then I don't think any of their deep -- could shut down. The New England in the Indian all India offense and of course it went off the toilet and development that matters so. They have that great games on their on their network you know -- read about them about him go on or important and then pumping. On fourth and 15 in this is the coach. Who overcame 426 against the Green Bay -- remember. And I mean you talk about are really I don't want hip bone -- move because you know any -- an opponent he's a great football coach. What he was thinking at that moment in the big game not going forward and -- in the pocket and won't in the and please stop -- long. Really it was another one of those questionable calls in regards to coaches and that's why go to decisions are so important. In these situations and that's why don't vote checks since he's become a patriot has been just -- in the situation.
So shot -- gets fired today what's the chances he ends up in Miami by the end of the week.
Good chance of that and the other the other jumped -- Bryant shot -- offensive coordinator of the jets. As a finalist so is Jim -- as a finalist there. You know Bryant shot only 30 years old what you did great job with the jets armed I would I'm keeping dom capers as they're -- a coordinator. They have I would think that they're going to epochal offensively but I can imagine Marty get Colin bump dom capers -- they have a history with each other not.
Run articles while the don't bother -- are you Miami of -- you know who's believe we're. The complete brought to you by DG CU a proud supporter. Of the -- some foundation -- cystic fibrosis -- the DC UN go to DC new dot org for more information I'd keep the work we will talk Putin next Monday after the AFC and NFC championship -- indeed both sides that would that is now in pro sports last the on the other side
