Boomer Esiason, NFL on CBS

Welcome back to a patriot Monday joining us on AT&T hotline as he does every Monday during the football season our -- block size and how mobile how aria. Well hey I began the program earlier by saying with -- all due respect to the patriots winds Leigh Bodden Wes Welker the saints and colts staying. Unbeaten. Big game the day of the most exciting game of the day is the one we mocked and ridiculed. All week long.

the Detroit are aligned vertically right yes indeed game yeah and to his credit Matthew Stafford. Conflict you've been separated shoulder some thing on me. Last play of the again regulations and they had one month are employed in two. What you don't normally see it occurred in the hands on help married.

By the way should we should point out the defensive back who got called for that was former patriot Hank Poteat won a broad -- I'm not -- I had. It would've been better off with that would that tickle the browns with Culpepper and there are Stafford.

I -- would have stayed and there are probably would have. -- Don't eat he hurt his left shoulder he's sort of right beat -- shorthanded but. I've been in the situation. Before we will work yup children and everything -- to both -- to -- by torrential development and -- He talked it up but again it really meant nothing -- back and threw a touchdown pass so this -- helicopter I have greatly over spark from Matt Stafford what he did yesterday.

I you know may genie is offense exploded but I'm guessing he still doesn't get much sleep at night and guess and Mangini is still. A little sick to his stomach today. After you know have to that kind of lost.

But I have no question about it Jerry Remy ease. Trying to -- check you know dirt on change brown did an interview with the Marshal yesterday it was good. Yeah -- about it is that that he talks about. You noticed this approach to things and he's he's watched it worked well for people alluding to what -- for the giants and of course the patriots meant what telecheck -- the pictures from my point is that take a look at -- record without Tom Brady as opposed -- with Palmer and -- 118 to thirty. With Tom Brady the approach only works if you have a great quarterback but also the month sentences. Just this -- inflicting misery everybody else it's Richard your carrier coaching -- got back -- quarterback. He -- those weren't there also approached looks like that politico.

The boomers we turn our attention the patriots jets game yesterday I'm wondering -- as an oversimplification. When you talk about the patriots offense if you take away Randy Moss -- by the way. Route listed yesterday released it yet today then Wes Welker will kill you if you take away Welker the red mosque is probably gonna kill you oversimplification.

I don't think so our tickets -- after the game yesterday and somebody had the benefit from Randy -- being on the field and what Wes Welker is on the -- like he was and we do you figure out you know I guess benefit more than anybody out of it would have mics every night -- are pretty -- I mean he's gone pays them the breach -- shatter every record. It's her interception this season and how well apartment Tony guys that started the unsung hero but now -- you don't know hero he's the main guy in and probably the unsung hero always has -- Kevin -- in political thought it would but the Wes -- in any runner up there was maybe beat -- Jewish settlement looks just like government you know you -- trigger -- it's -- figured it -- and he'll turn out to be the next -- welcome maybe. -- reporters on the road but. You know is pretty impressive performer just go to -- decorate the second half no absolutely. But for the most part I think conflict has -- football the year my I think he's back where he wasn't 2007. Looks like he's really complement. When he houses. Is guys out there with them.

All all or arc of your credit market are -- were only a handful of occasions did it appear that Brady seemed to try to. For so long ball to moss went away from it quickly enough when walker obviously was open for fifteen -- but I'm wondering. Does seem antithetical to use that a that a guy that is as as as cool and collected and and analytical. As both Belichick and Brady are the -- might from time to time try to force -- Baldwin got to make a point -- didn't shut him down back in week number two or such as part of loosening up the defense to get Welker open eventually. Work -- after -- illogical there's no logical that the.

Okay whatever but I I have started I do believe there's something to be set about that I picked. You know Brady has a lot of pride -- lot of -- it was certain they know what's going on out there of course that that the -- several uses that anything maybe possibly can. To motivate his team and that I would doubt it it didn't take some if you think this week territory Randy Moss and you know of this -- so there's always tight bank. There's another level of competition that's going on here. And they might. This agreement beta might publicly disagree with -- but I would think that that would check wants Tom Brady to have better statistics than Peyton Manning. Now -- think that. -- about the ultimate competition within the cup a competition at the highest levels. Of the NFL and to be. You know -- You look at the numbers that I'll put up every week and they throw the ball so much I wouldn't doubt and you know just we probably -- leap of -- there wouldn't doubt that there's always -- one reliant in in Indianapolis as to what patent brilliant as always promised planned better than template but our numbers and -- that may be via motivate factors well.

I was that about yesterday -- it's funny you mention it and they gave Maroney the ball twice inside the five -- two yard touchdown one yard touchdown. After fumble and -- don't deserve a touchdown put the ball on the ground let's throw for the it about this give Brady that the statistics -- mean get a great game. And his rating was only 98 and I oppose you because you only have one touchdown pass. I wonder how often that comes up I mean you know --

It comes -- probably. My my sense is that is that -- approach Eric recognizes. How great the quarterback is that we have -- he knows that he knows exactly. What. You know Tom Brady is brought -- about operate but it says and everybody knows. In this league and if you're lucky enough to have a direct Brady -- are breeds are one whose upper Echelon quarterbacks. You arrived emphasis -- Domingo -- with -- and give them an opportunity to put up those numbers present for the game within the -- and others no question that they can become a couple -- touchdowns yesterday but to bill -- credit to the British credit might have been a run past. Option down there on the goal line and then -- saw that the defense was poised to be Eric gouged by Iran to give the -- Morrone who so what you wanna -- Laurence -- the fact it is probable cause it's time you know an elastic. And I mean it's really eye opening to a lot of us that the guy just doesn't pump also maybe as we get him back on track as well.

At the other end of the spectrum we find the rookie quarterback -- just Mark Sanchez and sexy Rex Ryan after the game said he will not bench Sanchez his quote was. He won't get any better sitting on the line. Where is the tipping point -- in a young quarterback's development when you start throwing four interceptions when Leigh Bodden has as many receptions this country does on your team that it starts to become. Counterproductive for this kid's development.

what built Florida -- alternative there's a guy that is just an average part and nobody can do that what you can't group. Don't go to big that I always caution coaches on and why they always do what they're up they're terrible quarterback our position looked at differently than other camps where are the conditions. There of the game earlier this year against Buffalo Bill what sports are just 25 interceptions and the jets were in became almost to the end as our partner to be in mother went over time. And at that point in time I think. You know when you look at the player on the field and you recognize that he's overwhelmed. That is making mistakes and those mistakes or -- home game. Our policy there why there's any reason why he wouldn't sit them down the batch we stick within that game and you count on an opportunity and the -- can win the game just by not throwing interceptions. Unplug as they were Rex is coming from but I also know that you know there's a time work -- going to be very careful because you could lose credibility -- well. Because everybody knows magenta that would struggle with rookie quarterback I don't think anybody thought they would struggle this better that he would struggle -- spread of the interceptions deeper yesterday were just god awful I'm the last one especially. I mean you just can't be that reckless and careless wolf football because of -- have appealed -- about a percent. You know -- of the players and that he. Emo look at him go under tiller nausea and they'll look at the coach on if you close somebody opener it was a total -- do -- thing. Just spoke on the ball over and our people department jet I would definitely be no -- and frustrated this morning.

Well what happens to guys like -- Sanchez or or or Ryan and and Flacco went to little sophomore slumps. Are they is it a -- of -- making physical mistakes clearly -- goes. Gift to the -- wasn't a physical mistake that was a -- mental mistake conceded defender but. Well overall on the season guys like that I just seeing different looks our teams. Figure that out demo because they didn't have a videotape on them when they were rookies -- know what they were all about. What changed for guys like Flacco and Ryan.

Well you know I think the -- would be jury that they believe it's a metal -- not a physical buying and you know -- felt specific quarterback position as a very unforgiving place you know one week on the part of a lot of -- point five touchdown came once -- the next week you're at the bottom wrong because you've thrown five interceptions and nobody better example of that. And it scorers like that and Cold War and our conference and and you have got to have a very short memory you can't let those things hack around it that's when you know you've become a contrary where David. Clinton -- want all the negatives -- Ryan leaf. You know JaMarcus Russell called for right now. All those negatives become so great teacher can overcome it from a mental standpoint Alcatel people. Everyone of these quarterbacks with the physical attributes to do what they are required to do in order to be successful. Only the truly great ones. How would it take internally to understand that you know not every bad plays the end of your career not every good place you don't mean did you arrive and I think guys like Tom Brady and Peyton Manning into -- they play a level. You know. Because they compare themselves to understand how to become a professional quarterback and can only hope that a guard Mark Sanchez. Learns from every one of these negative things that he's talked right now to be a better quarterback Mike census. That he is going to be a really good quarterback picture and then you'll be a completely different type Applera will be more of an asset that is the liability.

which surprised you more of the chiefs upsetting the Steelers are Oakland beating Cincinnati.

I think -- while I -- I read her Oakland once again with his more -- understand how about half of the gentler Nazi. Watching a decade yesterday you know -- and and we sent it. They get one half times that the longer you allow a team. The lesser of the change you know on -- Beaconsfield on the -- or other professional players to their pride you know and elbow her way to win the game. Especially helpful along with vote with turnovers and just display is a typical that Davenport -- respect.

You know if you logon to ESP undercover page was not the chiefs beating the Steelers it was not Oakland beating Cincinnati wasn't even the great Cleveland Detroit game you know what you what's on the cover of that that that the website on ESPN. The patriots getting ready to play the unbeaten New Orleans Saints next Monday night. There are talking about it Sunday night into Monday morning for a week from today what do you like -- right now the world has to wait till Sunday -- the and we get a sneak preview.

gonna actually do it again so our mom all pumped up about one and my. Might send governor of the state to going to be talked about it in the wanted to get more annoying wanna might. Feel differently this morning in. You guys were sitting here but I have to go to -- as we look at some of the films and everybody else and we look at the injured list. Then they go appeal to Mecca opened to more and accurate assessment I'll probably in the Pickens. You know New England actually just because. You know. I just can't go against the Brady went as planned at the level that is -- apple -- for which is the best football exploits since 2007. I think he's back 100% and as long as they get from their defects of guys back healthy you know don't be a formidable folk war warns that on the night.

put much stock could -- very simplistic analogy that the NFC equals the National League. And AFC equals the American League and thus the American League patriots might have an advantage even a New Orleans over the National League NFC. I -- that makes any sense.

How about that I do know that you know you talk about the best he can only be all really have the best quarterback -- they're also about it about this about -- in big big score on anybody they're gonna defense it's gonna shut them down right I told you a couple of weeks ago parts of the Indianapolis Colts and -- the COLT defense going to be into for a rude awakening and they work and the colts defense can be out yesterday and shut down a young quarterback in all ages of fifteen point. And I think that that is -- the first game that the all the states have where they're actually playing against another team that can score as many point -- they can. So are still being high scoring game I know that for a fact. And it's going to be an exciting game. And I and I just think that whether the American -- on national or whatever it is with the fact is yet to the best quarterbacks don't against each other head to head which have been excited yet.

With -- all due respect to Tom Brady throwing at 41 times fifteen of those connecting to Welker the fact of the matter is Laurence Maroney ran the ball 22 times. Yesterday we -- an attempt. By Belichick at least and in in a subtle kind of ramp up way into December that into the playoffs a trying to unveil a little bit of balance a little bit of a power game trying to run the football just a bit.

I don't think that. You coaches coach in the moment you know it's whatever the environment. You know Garnett game date isn't gonna lead then took to run it certainly if they played awards next week and it won't come out their move the ball on the field have brought all the -- Then Belichick also you know what we're gonna have to -- a point for point not to throw the ball. You know obviously the best way of people on particular home -- to try to limit the amount about possession that they have to do that -- eating up the clock but -- probably the patriots are afraid of anybody -- side belt play any that the game. Amado. I don't that the fact that more launch party ran the ball point two times just -- mean anything war then you know they got out to a big lead yeah David wanted to pick -- the -- Tom off the clock. But in the end I've belt belt play any which way you wanna play because they're as good as anybody in football yourself on.

and I think it's in -- fourth and two -- your own 28 you have to go -- is Drew Brees is so good.

Not a liberal and --

That's never ever ever gonna and I will -- when we're hoping yesterday he'd get and its exact same situation. -- he didn't the end of fourth down and punted right in the other guys in the in the jets' territory which was a little surprising. But well.

Ever has now just remember remember who he's planning -- You know I don't want throughout coach protectant and and that's probably goes for lot of coaches -- on the -- really how expensive war how indeed these coaches over another coach Eric probably goes a little bit further than most are. I know -- it doesn't -- creators who were -- probably got some of those scenarios some of the hypotheticals. And he -- while -- in this situation this -- the decision -- the America and I think it's relatively simple -- quite -- take great offense with a great quarterback great on the road he's more likely to take chances -- offense -- is is that supposed to -- at home you know against the rookie. He quarterback where you know all of those -- execute code ninety yards --

This is what I was taken yesterday ravens. Colts. Don't they scored twice you know it's not like it's not like every time Manning gets the ball he puts up seven points you know can he can occasionally be stopped.

Well he can but -- remember what happened in that fourth quarter last weeks since we're talking about that. The previous two series are three series you would like seven of aren't. Two of those series one less than two minutes Olympics 79 yards and scored touchdowns and he's standing there and he's watching -- I always say that coaches really do have been made it look for the moment they coach. You know in the moment they coach towards what they feel is you know the waiting game is going and and nobody -- anybody veteran football. Understanding the momentum shifts and swings in the game Belichick has been used he's always been. You know on the forefront of of doing things and an aggressive manner especially when you have Tom Brady is quarterback so while we talk about this last week and your result was the debate is that's where the ball was on the field yeah. Somebody did say that the news we got it might have been damn about is that if you thought that patent Manning was gonna score on you know and -- you -- that conviction that's what you want or are important to put down 28 then why didn't you all up Peyton Manning to score argued the first coming up the ball. UW and then you go back out on the field try to when the it would --

That was the topic of discussion for -- a day and a half bill Belichick's response to that was you gotta make a morning. Well I. Want your particular. That weekend table -- variation on the question we ask every single week Columbia rework it a pretty clear right now for trying to set up the NFC championship game it would be New Orleans in Minnesota at this point fairness act. Okay so much more difficult to do and AFC's side obviously you put the colts in there that you have three teams 73 the patriots the Bengals and San Diego and the Pittsburgh six and four Hoosier AFC championship game I suppose against the colts.

Well I was. Well I'd say yes -- I think knowing when the war on an abuse your Super Bowl com on the New England was my proceed and picnic rebel it was my. Separate in Britain Merrill so it sort of played better now but I think you'll be -- recognized when loans Cincinnati right now. Yeah I do I've right now as we sit here in week eleven or whatever weaknesses. I think. Since that -- even though they lost the rated yesterday. The offensively -- there are terrific football game. At all but would have certainly hit their stride yet they've been -- senator Specter yesterday but that's about what I -- and all that that we saw record years ago -- facility. That is try to find itself -- on the way through the past you know especially. So optic either it's either going to be Cincinnati. Or or stated above our merchant whether plan all of sudden.

Hey I'm told over to Boston College that'll exactly consider doing good luck charm for the Eagles oh for thirteen I believe on third down and that lost a horrible loss on Saturday.

Well you know you guys sort of perception that he you know on an airport to pick on right. On any you know college quarterbacks are how old is but or did you -- haven't -- The time it's a very -- defense and are considered so that was shocking because I do North Carolina especially here Russell played at the good one for Hirono. Is a much better team than their record -- indicated they lost some cheap games early on on -- somebody -- additional lost it but their defense who's good and you know rocket from the first play on all probably for Boston College. Should he wasn't right he got tattooed and -- on it just cut to the really really difficult period beyond.

we don't you go to the Maryland game and you gonna have mixed emotions but a -- travel with this team to the it was a -- weed eater bowl and it.

I will not be traveling to look for college -- I hope I make again next -- my plan is such that I will make it -- CBS post and our meetings on Saturday that music and go to their games so used to all of you to -- most guys don't have to do -- alternate -- there so.

a dead just a good time -- boss supported your son Duncan well those friends total when the game's over.

Are cut off to go to the way it works you know it is one thing -- back to school there and have a great -- it is such a great place it was a great day mr. contestant. On Saturday vote -- you know after -- yeah. CB Anthony can year old is good old buddies around -- around on a -- one concerts and doppler not live mice there.

We're gonna talk you we appreciate it now what do for next week with the supplement in a football. Dog who got an --

I'll probably call you on Monday morning we'll talk about the game Monday night -- and excellence and look forward to it. Our guys they're great weekend and after Thanksgiving.

Same deal Obama -- would Dennis and Callahan -- a patriot Monday boomer joins us on AT&T not like AT&T your world delivered.
