As the New England Patriots visit the Indianapolis Colts it's the traditional Brady versus Manning match up that we seem to get every year. And who better to talk about that and virtually everything else on the planet. -- a guy who's played with Tom Brady and against Peyton -- former patriots linebacker Rosevelt Colvin is on the -- rose. --

The man has been a long time we've been -- to Rosie.

It's -- because. You know wants to leave -- in this. Real garden with the card or you have a problem it has. Quote so.

We don't know here we don't go camping anymore are well.

Well everybody. It's backward dismissals friends.

here's the thing Rosie. Tea while we haven't caught this at the Super Bowl.

That it.

You're our Super Bowl correspondent. And in the immortal words of Emmett Smith utility Arizona's -- you -- out. I do blow out and -- it.

They want to go. Not my prediction was that. It's our -- is they want.

Yeah particulars you you let us down a road particular blowout knew it was actually had a great -- wanted to great Super Bowls the last ten years.

What I mean involved and they've made -- book they decide to play and they please log in all at the credit to the better of on the carpet that they it is helpful that at this debate. -- crowd of its shares of its its.

As you look at a Sunday night match up that pits it's patriots team that lost to against the colts team that's lost none how do you see this game.

I think it's going. A bigger -- game as well I think you know. Has not been don't see -- in the colts play each and every week is being Indianapolis. Steal that Google in the same -- that you know what they do with what they say and but it's sort of a different way because they don't have Bob -- he hasn't been a mainstay. Right -- is available but he's still on that I levels -- linebacker crew was banged up but they still laws make the plays I think. Whether it's doing it differently is that playing better on defense. It is because it typically we do we get out. They shall and in to a statement in the past they were dual. Now again it if it helped the you have number eighteen play quarterback because even on the defense was terrible with resolve you know. For years but still winning ball games so I think it's it's a bit dissipate now I haven't because it's played well and that the same he's benefited. From those young guys probably in -- of the offensive plays on that was that and.

You know Roosevelt we had this conversation now yesterday -- and I did and I wanna get your take on. Out.

Why did you copy yet -- yeah.

What because we know you're busy you guys -- very busy man got a lot of things going on an out of respect. Out of respect for you we decided to wait a day but anyway. The conversation I had with. Peyton Manning versus Tom Brady if you had to -- One -- You'll get one. Which guy do you take a lot.

Played with played against patent. Sort of bit biased I would take. My -- reasons but I ain't bad is because. I -- Tom Brady. In in negative and agree whether or part of Tom Brady at a moderate degree weather thank. I got time great it was raining. Or the inside out playing. -- patent it is rated sloppy. And it's dance that you might get a little frustrated. Upset and often have. Start talking and -- David that they. And yet it issue it and so I think. The one thing you can't take that they have a great variety -- great player. I think the one beta different beta it's is playing indoors or not -- that -- endorsements being able. The control the weather note that only got down here you know they figure with the forecast is going to be in. Given the events or get togethers they were not they want the -- so. You know. Whether. Race we don't know. Product -- the same guy and I think that's been in not a lot about it on the patent. And get a vehicle where the game they gotta have all -- good advantage you know. We thought that they'd be -- game. You know they turn the -- opponents in the -- So in -- taken down long story short.

Well let's talk about -- them from being a cross the line from them and I think any fan. I can just look at him and see that he's got control of the office -- he's a maestro but when you play against them what's the one thing that. That that may be we don't realize just watching it on TV that that that stands out about them.

What think you opportunity to make all pro. View from opportunity he's gonna take advantage of it. These these. These wide enough and you know that enough -- a better quarterback and the two. Know how to take effect you know somebody's got to step back there -- take it they just take -- and then next thing you know it out to three weeks were David patent. -- talents or saying that you know you could be resolved currently goes down of that becomes as a few years ago they were talking about the rams receivers. Because they were kept -- balls is that taken -- that we need to write about ethical battle it's so home. At some point you have to say we've got a smart. Because there's going down to denote a -- it rises -- it beautiful and explain we'll -- it gets the point where when you take effect you can tell he's just the -- and so he had enough -- to open his or Qatar. And then he goes out and databases and to make sure he able to function -- actually take advantage of what the defense gives him. And that we have a chance to you know sort of take this and gamble he does as well. You know a lot of times over -- that success is very successful so. He's very very difficult to play against that they want David he's been very beneficial is having those guys around him and that's another reason why take. Because Tom has done it with. Randy Moss and Wes Welker and all pull our receivers and it also -- it -- not been -- level -- better with guys that were released district for ages. That our role players and but a very good role players guys like to -- is that you know very successful that -- the you know 6789 years or -- a guy like Reche Caldwell. It still -- important and simply -- numbers because of the receivers so.

when it when your lined up across from Peyton Manning and he's gone through wall let junk and all let. That movement and talk and and signal and and all that stuff public that the pay attention to if at all.

Mutated into the last. I would that you pick it it's the last four or five -- Before the clock is is summed it up for -- for the ball that would. But it's like packet has -- seconds then antipathy to be because. Basically all the mobile facility does report that you just trying to figure would be sensitive within -- the offices in office recorder -- coaches so. The hurry up offense. It's -- deep into it so -- gonna do well you know bits and pieces became. This -- as well enough. It's going to be a position to make played that you're you have benefits but. Is basically because sort of hands so that he can. It makes it easier in the figure out what coverages. Or what what we're whether you need to take Toronto capacity. A lot of time over the years -- both state run together and so that they are similar. So what there I need to do was watch the TV copy of the previous two or three games but it alt games. Because you can pick up almost workings and throughout Ontario on calendar mail and in Gary Guyton all of us because environment. Start repeating everything depicted Fayette and -- offer -- related.

A -- up to -- it's like a little kid when you say something they say something back he gets very frustrating.

I'll get that that they come up a bit about it's 88 get mad at me so I'm I'm pretty sure a -- rove and -- three year old man is going to be spectators see him as favorite things in you never know what can buy you it over the I think beat her once they heard another -- not. You know without you know that this not count with legal and Israel with it's if if he -- that problem thirty to take. 4950. You yell or take -- deep and the people aren't. Often the violence has not lookin' at patent. Doesn't know that was the tactics of the event at which you do it became the play in my game console. It's all part of making became more mythical than it is physical which. A try to do a lot because I was he a lot of physical specimens like during his is reported to you know.

Have they got about forty -- I always I wouldn't do it before we're forty you don't forty. I went into that process.

I know I know I know he's Basra let let me ask you is get because I I know and we all know from from listening to Brady and from the scene in the ballot tech talk about the colts. That they're primarily a zone team. There are primarily. A cover two team. And and it's it's not difficult to figure out what they're trying to do to you but they're just very good excusing their thing -- on offense -- defensive player. Would you look at the colts offense and you say that the complex offense. War it is it simple and it's made great because he got Manning back there.

I think it is the topic up as of that date -- simplify the what you. You look. Quarterback. Can. Can tell everyone is exactly what to do think if you had a rookie back there that it would be you know you have the media classes say they need to simplify -- to cut it down from about what summit boot into Congress's. Terry Collins and so. You know they were there the playbook you've opened up or its patent for this specific reason because -- I can't handle this many plays. Or when you have got it is not off the street becomes an employee's. -- sort of take out -- played 78 it's candidates that run wants to report six so. With -- what he does he. He can create. -- for younger guys like. Bigger receivers that they have and then I don't read about it because all -- this to do that and is that a total of fourteen different. You know types of plate terminology. -- that it took so long as -- bank or just run down view and upload your ball. And I think that their system is definitely something that they tailored to the point where they got it down to -- you know of the foreign language.

I mean quarterbacks like Peyton Manning and Tom Brady are certainly capable of making a physical mistake occasionally. What can you ever confuse guys like that.

Yes. That we can I think bill would both times whatever you'd be. Tom take reactions after. Something happens like an interception. Or somebody does something wrong in the you know it's a mistake you've gone BM can prevail in their demeanor. -- really really bothers them that respect -- somebody up there that would Eudora or it'll. You can you. You can keep that from them or in the game you don't see you as you watched -- so the competitive nature India but disseminated player on the field you know when you've made a mistake. You've done something that has called the from critical -- embassy in a phone call on. Among whites it'll. Or -- there abrupt but it's an example.
