Good morning as Patriot Monday I'm not suggesting. In any way shape or form -- Matt -- reminded me of Joe Montana yesterday but. Tom Brady in his first start so I asked the question Jerry. Any chance a year from now I'll be saying Brady you reasoning Cassell and I'll be saying -- throw the deep all the news that yes he can. And annuals that he shouldn't lose his job to a to an injury ended the baseball yoga today Cassell. The only -- cast that the Brady Bledsoe debate will be OZ.
Nice -- zero zero -- you know what there's a chance of that did did it Patriots become like green day you know when. Mark Brunell were back was backed -- Matt Hasselbeck back and open. Do they. And they sent Cassel backed the answer to the trade gimmick at the start somewhere else. Mean -- chance of that. If he's -- let's face -- and crap beat QBs in the NFL. And he could play well enough. Two. Interest of the team that will be look of respect.
He plays that well he's effective that well don't to a lot of the fact that a lot of -- Tom Brady could get hurt again you might need this guy a second time -- times Tom gets older short yeah.
it doesn't work that way I mean I don't know. I know what's his contract status he's on he's in his fourth here's in the rookie contracts and fourteen year -- what was his rookie contract. They'll be a day he can force the issue like you know again like Hasselbeck did Brunell. You know whoever AJ Feeley did that you know pure good back up deserves to stock. Eventually you get your chance to start somewhere you don't sit you would -- on the bench -- Brady's 31. Brady wants to play at least forty which came on the branch for nine years.
All of those between now that's true that you think we're going to seal off putting grip and at that point I said at the local watched by the chemical woman up that he didn't look they showed a -- up now that looked gone please Matt yes. Backing up get out there. Don't make me do this I'm not ready. It not a lot or something -- look at this. I mean we often complain but the Mets in the studio -- pigs who worked at this station runs most people here. This weekend's -- Physics crushed notes cigar like on the shelf next not. Not in an ashtray you know in a -- now just on the shelf yeah. He's the guy with a picture of costs crushed out on the show up there yeah. Yeah now as well as your mother Woodson. Who do you expect to pick the right who who is supposed to pick -- Exactly is that. My child as much -- his job Henri has meant they are we supposed to call image -- Garcia to pick up you know pigs Byrd who -- here on -- slow day. I have to touch that. I think and I don't smell it it's -- right next. It's dark Percival. Are you sure that's -- it's a baby Ruth yeah I don't I I have to pick that up -- what you guys likable academic touch it. Or media. On the -- here we go up -- that man Zach -- pick that up like -- it. Was out gift. It -- the eggshell office is open and they throw in there and crushed a little --
They I want to talk about what surprised about yesterday's game and what didn't what didn't surprise me it's exactly the way Belichick put this kid in a position not to hurt himself and certainly not to hurt his team. You know most people said well -- those things that you don't expect. But I don't think yesterday it was the day for that to happen. There weren't a lot of deep balls thrown. There was not going to be any Matt Cassel aerial circus he was going to look Salt -- together manage the game let it come to him and essentially said I'm sure -- at him. Lose this game let your teammates when it for you your -- fence when it for you -- kicker -- the Jets and -- the way. Pascal ski suddenly get a leg like this -- do I don't know Oden and.
Yet he always had described as leg. I mean there might not get kicked us -- oh well I'm in the kick offs one thing but the Eagles have been I think your human growth I was going to put one up. Player of the game it is Steve Cordasco -- because Donald -- but he -- the points he he made the difference and they they started every -- incorrect and an -- all those field goals were all right now yeah middle and its place in 1910 games -- connected and the want to return these four yards deep in the that that was a mistake at -- and the mistake but you'd -- and yeah -- W -- And trying to make something happen -- koskie was in Mets and I think he's at least if you. He's at least among -- it.
that would what Vinatieri did and after this when you aren't motivated here you know meeting the worst they all have shank one that bat. Yeah I forget about that mostly ugly people I've ever seen that takes Vanderjagt off the hook for that one of the left. That was one and obviously Vanderjagt was more important from from from a game standpoint but -- just adds yet was --
One of those days where you look back at the decision Belichick made too that Vinatieri walk in draft this kid in and you know this pressure to -- this is that this was a very smart move he was huge. Well they they win the game without you know they they have the leader of some stiff back their kick off that win the game he he gets he gets the game in my book but what the you know what was so obvious in the again we talked about it the duties as. Is rallied probably. In the east and -- the -- if you step up your game that means you had room to step up when it was when Brady was which means you left something. The orange try something out Brady was playing and now. Your your your. Even your crawl he must not give me -- before. I don't know why that is I don't know why they can do every week is only sixteen games what you give your all week. To -- it's human nature just the way it works. They rallied around Matt -- they rallied around the situation they played the disrespect. Quickly and played like never before it will -- the year yet but -- but more so in this game because -- was the Jets and because it was a New York has -- Mean -- because -- first game because. Of one ever Belichick said before the game but they responded to that pregame speech they responded to that rallying cry. And it was so I mean really did. Become a tangible. That he singing. Like effort at -- Thomas gave and that's back when he took the running back with them better flexible I'm twenty yard loss activate whatever. -- and it was just an incredible effort by this victory and and you didn't see enough of that last year and maybe year the -- where's that every week. Whatever it was there yesterday and Seymour made plays like Q like you rarely see him last year -- mean to release him it is just willing himself that. And you know abusing. To -- show Ferguson. And and blown up plays and and it's on the -- feds do when things.
That maybe they wouldn't have done. If Brady -- if -- when when -- check out with the difference in the afternoon the -- sure oh sure -- will admit to them because they can talk about -- and everything like he would he would admit that from a motivational standpoint about this -- game plan standpoint or -- getting your team -- but just from what say that my team standpoint from a motivational standpoint. This might have been easiest one that he's ever had as the coach of the Patriots it was it was it was there for the taking with a latter. Breakdown -- whole world says you -- that that the favorite to win the Super Bowl in fact the Jets have a better chance to the super -- you don't.
and and if you won it once again and the Mans genius clippings they were there back page of the post the daily news everyday just odd time one went you know it'll be no excuses and you know it worked out perfectly today. World in the all -- Cassell did the job there okay Matt Cassel looks like he's up for this job here. And without the deepens Cassell looses his game and still manages the game he still doesn't case the as a make big mistakes right. But it the deepens doesn't step up and and cliche applies today he does. If the -- doesn't step up. And he loses whatever 2419. Say they get to millions on the guys -- too. Then we say on all of castles that the guy Cassell would not have gained confidence from the scheme that he game. Because the defense did the job and and beat beat the Jets beat far -- face are -- supposed to. Do -- that makes out -- happen. And all I can think of news this terrible pass to Brandon Meriweather. -- or they shall the long ball lead from about Pena at short on the Cotchery in appearance.
The way we talked about -- a little -- on Friday and nobody was suggesting this -- must win game for the Jets but think about it talk about psychological. You know -- hall of -- was able to say -- the whole world thinks this is a one man team that there -- no Brady there's do we know knowing the Patriots a horse that got everybody's attention from Rodney Harrison Richard Seymour bills Thomas told and so forth. But but about the other psychological impact for the New York Jets. They were. With a cocky but it's a note a number that deal with Tom Brady gets our whole ball we got Brett Favre we got up you know what three point line it'll get.
That they get in meter as one meter victim we get Kris Jenkins we get Damien Woody yet Alan Faneca we -- congress shown yeah. Thomas Jones and we got all these weapons -- week. Played them pretty well in recent years. When they weren't cheek and video cameras that we were hold -- own. Under Mangini in recent years with how well he's now we get Marvin. And.
Jacobs Calvin Pace. This morning and every single member of that organization from and -- missed out of the water boy. And he York Jets to be able to beat the Patriots is ever going up and the answer my.
The Browns with a -- what right can we do to win here and and the Patriots added -- with the Patriots. Era and mail and rookie. Yeah rookie. -- rookie linebacker. Well O'Neal was waived by since and at your year's world which is for -- they'll. But the Sox they say don't let them sit it -- Brady the only loose and you'll lose it done pistol yeah. The game. A lot male rookie I mean honestly. And it -- bad LaMont Jordan on Jordan. Well policy. That soreness. The tackle LaMont Jordan and incidents there it looks painful but that he's had such early wise injury every time -- accomplish wilder has it all the much of an -- Stepped up his game yeah as it was going back to New York complaint against the Jets and wanted to. Take advantage of the situation -- opportunity. It was some Tennessee in. I agree couple plays it was replied in an -- shall -- the -- in the effort to watch this F bombs that a Bruschi when he sacks. Our our pit spot -- back and makes the hit on it was in francs. A mean it was a -- yeah yeah. Wasn't it wasn't a pass them to the if Beckett got 888 -- five it was back in five flipped the ball and -- to steal the pack -- honestly a lot of guys at every level football I did my part exactly picked it -- all right yeah you guys get him I got. When. Tedy Bruschi as the you -- veteran of 100 years in the league. Just wouldn't stop wouldn't quit and I think that so that was kind of the microcosm -- yeah defense that I don't like is that the Patriots -- the bye week for the next two weeks he had witnesses next units some days they're pretty much off the open -- being. It will be -- grown in the San Diego Madcast will be four.
Let go after the -- in San Francisco right and San Francisco next three weeks of guys now.
That is a chance for Matt Cassel to get his feet width and go in. And it helped San Diego by them that they can be old Orleans. At that. And when -- by his old form of the bill and I could've worked a better couldn't worked for the Patriots and again for no Conant -- San Diego. Matt -- is going to be pretty comfortable I don't know to be able to throw the deep ball. I don't know we follow it and healthy but he's going to have a chance to gain --
Redmond and -- under through Randy Moss. Washed up that's all that wasn't a bad throw marsh admitted that he should throw him and he should accomplish our product that should pick I was and that how to throw and number. I did it was -- Moss has mistake. And that's that's accurate at all -- under through Babineaux did -- And that the Royals aren't often get back but he should have made quite adamant and caught but it wouldn't minute touchdown because I was on the wrong they should've been a complete should should have been accomplished. If you were. Now thrown. In stride -- touched the cuts you council probably really -- this for slightly. In my heart -- down to about 95 now under 95 on the -- all the -- yeah you'd go -- to somebody. And it was like. Someone -- at -- Diego won what 7779850. All 3888525. Series don't think you can -- the USC. Probably not true at all important lessons -- how they. At a Michael Collins here as well beanie wells -- there SAT touchdown would be in agreement that. As he would be -- Well be worth 33 points that he played that game there'd be 33 -- probably I don't all right that's Kelly and pat W the odd couple -- emails all -- the quarterback our 8 o'clock. -- size followed by Matt Cassel meet girls. Lashed and and pulled.
