You like this offense as much -- do I do a lot of of this office right now but they didn't play well. And play well against and in the there pre season game just programs. -- the army's ought to start a four quarter better him that that was okay. But thank. With with the addition of the time in them and with they have a deposition and and hopefully. The emergence of giving them in this -- and then hopefully Brandon -- this year. I think this offense and discuss them afford right now you know they gonna cause a lot of problems for people. Tom has developed a a very quick infatuation with his tight end rob grown cow -- has and how would you would you guys is a huge man big guy -- and by the -- catches the ball really well I mean you catch last night he had to adjust to back behind him a little bit on that on that back hip. And and you had only seen this has been Coke's minute but it just about in the room like -- practice tomorrow. And and makes and make something happen with the pedal with the -- also nominees actually he's a pretty Talladega. He's probably too which is -- many balls and and he's a big strong kid can bring some tackles and you know this company and had them along -- emulate -- though even with Welker expressing in the red zone area. And you get done you want some big ads you can spot an -- and Gradkowski definitely gives him.
Let's be honest okay Bill Belichick doesn't throw around compliments very well I mean sort of tosses them around like manhole covers -- one when people went when you retire I have -- that says you're one of the heatley did say something nice about and you know what he said it when you're playing in two leading to say when you -- it. But last night after the game. He was asked about. How important Alge Crumpler has -- to the progress of these two rookie. Tight ends on this team.
It is this Parcells. These are so professional in every way. On the field off the field. In between plays. You know to hear -- him in the huddle and it's just -- the way he can keeps going the way he looks at every play alerted us come. You know this is mental toughness his focus -- almost from the basement great. Not just for the title since he's been a good. You know good influence for all of us you know everybody sees very professional and this is like he always does the right thing and it's certainly goes about -- always the right way and -- you made mistakes out there you know goes about the right way and.
And for Bill Belichick that's practically offering to adopt Al Alge -- mean that is effusive praise from him it is I think the last I heard him talk about a player and and -- an extent but somewhat. Was when he does Graham when Ramos and how smart and him saying he was the smartest U a coach a -- Princeton too but the fact -- But I. -- To note saying that about Randy you know that was -- big step -- being taken it in -- in you know praising one of his players but the save that much about one particular player. That says -- about algae Crumpler and what he's been being put his football team and and how he's approach to his job this year.
I was pretty impressed that he spoke that highly of him and we've had players say this stuff. Fred Taylor told us this week or so ago we were talking to him about it. Other players we've talked to talked about what he means I mean you were saying how big guy rob grown -- yes. Alge Crumpler is a large man yeah. He's more around and not as -- cannot as -- tall yeah I mean he looks like another tack on there yeah exact any blocks like any blocks like another -- there. Which is why I think this patriots running game not that you're gonna get away from being a throwing football team. You know which -- what what you weapons are what your assets are you gonna throw the football but exactly but when you wanna run the ball I mean last year -- 32 they'd -- shot.
And and the situation was when you Marion and -- Los in the head isn't yet as you know bright spots in the head is. His abilities that that word -- and -- Italian but I can run pretty well. But. When you get until football game in a situation where you don't have the confidence to romantic Italian. Our when he when we head bang Graham here and all the defense is new and -- on one side and bills and other sad that the -- MB ram and Daniel Graham. That -- office and about it so now you have a situation now where you're allowed to Crumpler -- you wanna go to tonight's. -- on going Palestinian and he's Spybot as good blocker is algae is but with him minded teacher and he probably will be. It gives up and some options and and keeps the defense gets a little bit little bit more than what they have been in the past.
