Welcome back it's patriot Monday joining telephone lines the AT and he outlined your world delivered our good friend Boomer Esiason good morning mr. Esiason how are you.
Bill Gregg has pitcher Monday that sound good levees were back into play. -- kind of routine now.
Shall lead back into a routine you know I feel bad for when the -- to Cincinnati Bengals lose I think boomer and I say. I picture of the green room -- what they call that place because sit and eat pizza and watch games and they -- Pound in your head in because your team blew it again.
Okay those funny bank goes you know -- I don't worry too much about it I have nothing to do with Panama I've never had -- been to do with them since I retired and just watching them the utility is just bad it's frustrating but it actually. -- doesn't bother anyone you don't -- a player with that in automatic pilot.
You think of it's obvious that his jet on -- and as opposed.
You know what I I was the -- cardinal on a big goal and a lot of people heard me say this that was otherwise known as the Bermuda Triangle I've played in well. So I really have no affinity to any team and the -- at all.
Good. Boomer as we get ready for Monday Night Football and doing the patriots I'm wondering in your mind a project -- Tom Brady what's going through his brain. Has the pre season and the two days answered the questions in Brady's own mind or do those answers come tonight.
I picked up a lot of those questions -- to -- physical standpoint now like what -- and where did Tillman all one. When they put the reds in the breeze is not that of the cheap shot beyond what is. So are the fact that he made it through that I'm sure had a little swelling in the shoulder and had to take a few days popular right again. I would imagine that he is just it should he can't wait the onto the field and nine I would imagine that it's his teammates are fueling. The intensity. I heard one of -- interviews with Chris Berman over the weekend. Where he said that he completed coached now all of the stuff so. -- tonight is going to be I I think an outcome for -- and I am sure he can't wait for.
It takes stones to go on national TV and maker Super Bowl prediction and choose to teams that. Did not make the playoffs last year --
Well at the objective of -- any time. That this offensive together collectively especially with the addition that they added on I've been immediately just kept -- virtually no lawyer -- yesterday about. You know they were so -- two years ago and they were so it last year without copy. It'd make the playoffs in all of us that anybody who covered in a -- particular perspective that offense. We also -- that he can do it would did two years ago about what you would pick them you know as part -- Green Bay Packers are concerned it was a pretty game last night but it -- a game in the division. Especially played team model like the bears let the they have very deep although decoded operative last night. It's still going to be hard fought games source spoke with the Green Bay Packers have a legitimate shot as do probably you know artists -- two other teams and -- would benefit warily indices and on him.
We'll bright I assume that this morning Chicago bear fans are waking up and have the same feeling in the put there to make that bet that patriot fans -- last year after Brady went down. Their quarterback their brand new state of the art quarterback -- four picks and Brian Urlacher just locates his wrist in May be lost for quite some time.
That's unfortunate for them with Ronald darker but for the quarterbacks concern on like Jake DelHomme down and get a lot of work really it would be concerned. You would get fifty games to get it right in you'll get it right I mean. He's a good player. Could be a great player I think he's in -- situation right now guys. Well watching the game last night he just wants to do every. That you want me every play every row and that is -- about him back a little bit and get complain game again and comfortable and I think Jacoby -- the Chicago Bears and are well take too much are we one I want to see trends -- wanted to -- over 45 weeks of the season. Before you really can make -- determination as that of the they're going to be but right now the big thing Crowley if you just point out the injuries and Donovan McNabb probably be in the biggest.
And on and and I I guess. We can expect to see Michael Vick at some point can we.
I would think so that nod to we shall see him when he gets activated particular beyond our networks so pitched in this you're Kevin -- does next week you'll you'll -- disorder for the Philadelphia. Wonder if they'll pick up another guy on the street just for the week I don't know what they'll do as a packer quarterback going and so we too but. You know like you guys -- last year when you'll lose key players like Brian Urlacher and Donovan McNabb you knows in order to be good. You'd better have a great deep sense you but I have a seat in coach and you better have some really good players on offense to support the young quarterback in. Of the Philadelphia Eagles that you know they've they've really showed up and -- I think. More importantly. Of them. It's going to be in -- problem Michael Vick becomes. You know active in Howell and if he plays.
It just just relax Kevin -- no pressure here you know that that guy happening -- the luxury suite he's he's not their look at this do your job but -- wondered yesterday looking at the division obviously the jets. Come up big -- Sanchez comes up big but they're not gonna. Pushed the patriots for this division is this going to be one of those deals with the patriots clinched the thing by Thanksgiving you don't think the dolphins.
You've gut her flooded you -- live over all we're doing we wanted to go to that you played.
I could put up thickened the over under is about Thanksgiving the dolphins. Last year the easiest schedule in the league now they of the toughest and we saw amid last year that turned the ball over thirteen times a whole year in the and eternal before time yesterday they're -- crashing back to --
I think -- yet there's so little bit of corrections happening for them right now but irate. I'd be careful about what you say about the jets part of it they're gonna when yesterday added picked on the way yesterday -- was ready to take that next. Step on what was body completely wrong now one -- trying gamers there's gonna bring great -- cents. Yeah and he can't discount what they did yes -- on the road used in. And then Mark Sanchez -- important presence and the packet they -- interception and I was sick of the guys on the that. Now this is where you find out if a rookie quarterbacks ready to you know understand exactly what it means the plane a WP. He hadn't played four quarters he wrote interception at the beginning of the fourth quarter century was fatigued physically which means that he fatigue mentally. Is he going to be able to turn the tide of momentum that took place tonight game. Any conduct a complete the long -- about the -- the -- and and and Thomas Jones runs for the touchdown so on come on guys Mark Sanchez is the real deal with the real deal of the day when they made the trade floor on on draft they felt that way and he's only gotten better it is always made me realize. That he is the odds on favorite one refused to hear that your.
And Jones likes Matt Ryan last year after the game in the interviews during the week aegis is so composure says the right thing has that look in his -- like he's. You -- you think she belongs there.
You know the first time that I madam. You know he came to also football and ice -- that are -- June now I do this on Long Island guys and they practice over in New Jersey if anybody knows anything about. The traffic down. You're getting computers galore on number rations and extra as. African traffic. And this -- drove from Jersey all the way to Long Island. Showed up. Signed autographs met all the high school kids went up into the we play at our university of small -- six week where some responses -- they're made his way all the suites. And this is back in June 30 just got here just signed his contract. All the interviews that the game. I couldn't believe that this kid figured out how to get church it'll walk around in the first place and then not only did he do that in the span of about three hours that began. An -- myself in this kid is 22 years old. And I think my daughter had a lot to do -- she's seventeen gorgeous yes she could get away from. I actually was the reason why he had he hung.
Out whatever it takes to expect a good job at -- on that subject in terms of his debut yesterday how well he looked and well what is played so far does the baseball affect. Exist in the NFL quarterbacks and by that I mean you know starting pitcher once through the league or once through the lineup to get a sense. Will will there be figuring this kid out to make it more difficult for him going forward.
My heart I still think that you know they don't have great wide receivers. It -- have a very good running game never. Very good -- too -- which should be able to protect him the other thing about yesterday guys that -- and -- back. And it really only threw one interception and one interception you know that's gonna happen a lot and it. He delegates they. Savvy -- parents were gonna see some more of those things that are gonna happen with. But up but I do believe it actually will be much -- deal because -- bring a much better off balance that began. And he ought to go toe to toe with one of the great quarterbacks of all time with one of the great offenses -- and you know that's always something that. You know raises the level of intensity in the level pressure quarterbacks yesterday. The jets defense to shut down on them match up and didn't give and a hundred Johnson chants and Steve Slaton never got on tracked. I don't think that that's going to be the case from the patriots -- the meadowlands next week so a whole different set of circumstances from Mark Sanchez but at least. This morning when he wakes up they can really good about it.
I know no one respects Belichick. More than you do boomer and I know we've come to expect the unexpected with the guy but. -- initial reaction when you heard the news that he had traded Seymour for a future draft pick.
While. I was caught off court I'm sure much like Richard Seymour was caught off court event. And it goes to show you there's very little loyalty. In the NFL and that's why what you are player you want a new contract. You hold out you can always be looked at as the -- Because you just never know when your number's going to be called another Richard Seymour is very disappointed I mean you're going from the pan out and out Al. And it it's gotta be I completely. Out of the blue and when you take a look at the deal overall these deals just block like there's -- Variables that go into it it makes complete sense. On the part of the patriots to do what they did you know he's got a guy over thirty you have got to want to new contractor -- the guy. You know that optional war. Hasn't played as well the last two years he did the first year contract when he really truly was one of the best be confident that all the football and still -- would be -- Those great -- and then. But they get a first round draft pick in what we all believe. Is going to be a rookie -- year. Is actually brilliant and -- Think because it is a Oakland raider draft pick it's going to be -- high draft pick in now that trip that all the sudden becomes worked something. It's a tradable commodity now because you would think that 2011. There's not going to be that high price tag attached those top ten X. But it was a brilliant move overall when -- Analyze that but I was just like everybody else absolutely shocked the Richard Seymour being traded to raiders.
It is Dennis and Callahan on the patriot Monday were losing their good friend Boomer Esiason quicktime up part number two with -- over don't go -- more patriot -- patriot Monday.
