Who's our -- this week -- so glad the leaders are lovely voice video one and only number 57 Steve Nelson a former -- in the papers this matter thirty member. Of the New England Patriots Hall of Fame now -- I believe what's up man named -- and part of -- you've -- We're doing pretty good I am you know I make my bright bold predictions all the time here and -- announcement came out of the box at fourteen into for the past this year John schism. Cock eyed optimist but they why can't they run the table Steve.
You issue fourteen -- that's what you know right now appears not not it's gonna -- evaporated thanks to the jets. Then the brunt of the Broncos now. -- interest in particular pick the next four weeks or arbitrary killing. Mark or Erica Altman's. The objects colts and saints at it -- schedule this part of schedule. Are -- most challenging them a -- gains -- dominant Sunday night. Colts are sending yeah you know a real challenge.
Sure does -- agreement with the patent -- so I modified it slightly as it well no -- insolvent for her but you know -- you're right. As a bunch undefeated run around this year and some windows teams it's kind of strange actually finally the yeah. The Favre your guys and your guys your your from Minnesota the Minnesota Vikings finally go to our last night Ortiz USA came yesterday.
You know I was watcher so bad for. Between that the agent right game you know much better game in the digit game that he ever liking it at that -- looking -- where the road and I you know. Again part made mistakes were ordered one of the all that. -- his fault that. I like -- speaking out this season is Monday night Bateman and A inspectors right yeah are they can beat them in in green -- Medical long way to spartans and themselves as you know alt says it's expecting at C.
We had some where callers and -- you know patriots really -- one BAB word that sharper had some people tell me. Also what you know look what they beat the box who were awful lot and I understand that. But at I I asked people this I'd like your thoughts on it I mean. Isn't it better okay so you trounced the team would what would you be happier -- won by seven or ten I mean my god.
Well I think option sometimes I think when great team like Tampa. Where there's as for our teams are really bad this year. You do tend to -- is very level any local property used to rehearsals sloppy end. In again -- street game one it was a win and it was Aaron. You know cleaned. Pedestrian win you know Brady already you know it it expects. You know whoever -- touchdowns and if you -- united assistant -- summit in October or personality you're gonna open rights. But I wasn't already impressed by the way -- In the the traveling. You know -- reported expanded in you know. Warren city before you -- in that might as a do that. Where the wind and you know I think are -- to retire epidemic and a re grouping vehicle guys so he or. There's extras that they've made -- there again might have export orders interest.
Steve and and about Tom Brady can we assess how -- assess him so far I mean it. He -- they blowout Tennessee and then Tampa Bay yesterday. You think he's backer and we tell yet if he's back.
You know I think you get back you know one thing about. You know became. You know they've peacekeepers will -- hours via -- and Japanese we repeat their teachers you know we're supposed to be an -- And handle and interacting quick replay pin. You know combination you know touched down -- and reception. Very I. -- Running the ball but I think he's more comfortable back there aren't get more confidence and you know the best thing isn't that you know hope Marx's. Injury is this serious one and we look Ricky spears shoulder -- But he got most of weapons inspectors. Are wrong on this team news you know you're much anybody else. --
And it's same thing there that Welker that affect the well prisoner 1010 catches I'm amazed at that guy. Have you ever played at a guy even so little he's so adorable he's so quick so creative. -- after the catch in order to really he's got a mission in mind this usery catch the ball he knows the first down markers are -- his players it is your -- give anybody.
You know that's that's a great question and I think nobody ever played whether you're a pistol -- I think it wonder. Yeah it was like England went prepared from the did you know as far as that size and toughness and ability -- ball and you know right -- jets that he wasn't. Wes Welker and get a little short little -- it rut you know it's it's art -- an -- you know running play. Yeah but he's able to make you know. Substantial yards first downs and explored Ireland yesterday in use. Is up especially you know it. At the -- retreat from the gulf and then not -- sources have more respect routers -- knows Barry. In I don't turn on the patriots were urged and you know -- good to receive -- pretty were that much and he certainly. The truth is because. If you look at all those guys Martin Walker racing which are more important gradient and it's great debate that I which it.
What makes him so again I know let's say it how can the it just it he makes it look so easy which surprises me is as first catch the ball on yards after the catch for a guy that's.
Yeah -- came from agreed to you know very place we want to Texas Tech and you know that's interprets or -- ER and but I think he's he's just one little over achieving guys who you know may -- repeat views frighten. You know XP that he -- fast. He's. Got a lot of courage. Very aware of all all around you smart they'll actually he's smart he's done saint gate pretty. You know that exists is important is -- because you know all of resource. C test to make you know where it they sit down a break -- order. Or do what whatever you know Ian Brady her on the same page in and of course when Eric guys -- as Brady is. You know that that I'm you know make a big difference as far as our profits even know set up. Then of course it's fusion and the -- walker and wouldn't -- a you know keepers now.
It on the defense -- it kind of interesting in that they linebackers you know obviously made all the all the tackles have a good game from a Banta-Cain you know which sounds like again burn remedy -- I think that. Doesn't it. I just a little bit and on -- August Stoppard at a you have no -- yet had the meriwether with the too early exit made all the difference in the world to a from plane with a lead is a whole different ball game Aristide.
Are absolutely ecstatic happy you know you don't wanna get that many that opened. You don't come out and -- and that to protest sound you know rock and blues great play it's he. I've watched it and yet. Kept keynote speakers you know trips on one side and -- the middle receiver and and Mary weather but territory nerds are are. You keep giving up. Much -- like third 401. Abolished perhaps even. Movement or prior scrimmage you have to travel companies that took over in Europe it play and you aren't Inca. Yet BQ thinkers currently sold movie you know the play against bureaucracy what was not a smart play. But I think he's playing great and it also that McAllen I think you'd great. I academic way east supports Iran and you know apple came out the second series and you know Williams -- some yards on the ground. You know -- became involved in. You know the run defense. Spartans basically I think the numbers --
And and about the linebackers. Do you see him as a bus so -- with a patriots.
You know it's -- it's Eric. To really -- it's. Actor and ethernet you don't know what response you don't you don't but the defense -- WT update on late night you know you look up you know I. No interception you know -- one -- You know it's art -- I got up and downs. Went some guys don't have a lot of that total you know total -- Apple's. You know they're doing their job but I you'd turn the ball insider. -- blockers allowing inside linebacker they make they you know technical sorted Arctic respect acts. Forests play -- a certain game but when you look at the total. Annual -- seven games now how many you know army that's comedy. Forced fumbles as -- or recoveries Euro -- about an interception. You know outside at a stack. League east it doesn't have any others so. That's not beat -- agent on.
Yeah well if fees he must not be doing some the right of fees inactive. For the week before Oregon Tennessee really that they're expecting more out of some kind of an arm up do you think that was motivational thing year.
And that's I think is in again. You know I think -- works -- but it especially on and -- he works regarding. I think he's 32 years old now in April rolls and you know -- resonate behind him. I don't know that works out but he again -- question -- vote on the when he sees every day at practice and and you know. Really -- six where he says. It's -- the cute game. So obviously you know Belcher they'll Thomas need to you know wake up call -- a -- locally -- progressing --
And we don't Pete Carroll wouldn't have done that. -- It's safe to say it's a -- just wanted to hear your person that's maybe bigger event you know it's funny -- because yesterday if Darius Butler butler got pushed off by the -- catch that one touchdown for a minute Antonio and back. Here -- bush tomorrow -- Literally we're talking about a could have been 94 nothing the last two games and care how bad your competition is 94 nothing or 947 even if -- begin. That's that's pretty huge.
Some political you know and it's it's I think people want anybody here -- wireless Internet strategy you know. A bit chip itself MR. Florida's lead to you is because it wouldn't be a -- And advocate gently into a riot and -- Clayton you're receiver. And get you know count uncle junior and is tight end. Cadillac Williams who's right Becky got some. -- you know it -- in order -- you know it's. It's something or comments of there at their first year electoral choose young guy and only want to stay positive but you know. The bigger discount it to keep -- at -- are able. You know Super Bowl contender. They're coaches sitting guys now. You know pushing these guys get a guy's first your roots -- Or are aren't things that you Hispanic thirty. You know repeat steak and and again eight. -- need to wait minute wake up.
A Steve what do you think about these games in London -- there's tax they might add now to would of the schedule and then there's been some rumors about potentially. A team over there. Where what do you think about that.
I take it anymore games they should not sing god it ain't -- in. Look at the worst natural. -- all time rock and the queen is probably a nice lady right. No we don't Sarah Connor. Should cataract prodigy -- I it is that is I don't know audio -- commissioner router reading. There are granted next obviously -- want to expand and better. Game in and lot of money at all -- you know. Terry England soccer soccer yes country rugby I. Don't that. It.
I got a way to make him make it really really funny for games over there make the rest you know most these other guys when they change the guard at Buckingham Palace the fur hats they went out. They were the red -- Make arrests wear those little outfits and and everybody was saying you know what -- dominating them for awhile I wouldn't. Players American players probably would I mean that -- all the travel and also Leo family and everything else Olympic.
It has you know and it wouldn't put the F toast usually gathered in the view they were at the news west coast you know. Occasionally and talk about eight weight gain better you know you're traveling for our external powers right I don't think.
Unlike -- interim athletic concorde anymore CK -- don't want our trip over there which is something they can probably afford -- it. Snore more -- relate to go to monitor this game tonight we have a coming up but. In about 830 and erases -- a crappy game as the Redskins sock in the Eagles aren't that great. I feel like it tonight's game because I bet the house on the Eagles.
I aggregate I agree want to upset that secure you know what out of Sherman Lewis who's taken over the plate calling for Redskins. And again that was even a coach's decision that was you know from. While ago and general managers eight were taken away to the plate on responsibility. Unit approach it -- it to sure it was too. Two weeks or woods calling England a bet -- all know that the bad side and players players -- Now -- in art in Washington comes out all of even. You know into the arms Sierra to break out the need to win. If they want ever the council's feet and so they'll be off part up items as they. All stretching it all happen. Redskins. Are too much ironic that the Eagles the Eagles got. Beat by a -- or else we can -- a bigger they're pretty smoking will also are a product that you.
Eagles tonight by the way don't don't -- that bingo thing at the old folks home I've been pretty lucky in my -- to -- And -- her that have a good night Steve is Dave -- city Steve Nelson former patriot -- what a great quarterback he was to have good guys.
