If Tom Brady and the Patriots play like they did against the Ravens, can they beat the Giants?

reminded. That with ten days to go I think my math is correct ten days to go until Super Bowl 46. Are reminded that there is here in and year out in the ramp up to a super ball. A routine and a rhythm to the preparations and unfold almost identically every single year no matter who's playing the big game. It begins after the AFC and NFC championships. We're bowl team sort of assess who's injured who's healthy who might be and who might be out thus rock makes a projected. Participation. Injury list yesterday. Then you're talking about up breaking down strength -- weaknesses giants' defense of one vs the patriots offensive line. Brady vs their defensive -- the patriots defensive backs -- Eli Manning and those three wide receiver all the football acts as the -- Then at the balls into. Looking for signs that your particular team. Has an edge or is going to win and they they they they can get a stupid as and as irrelevant Adams. Poll -- holiday. Tweeting yesterday the bill will not be wearing that jinxed red buddy. On the sidelines as he did in Super Bowl 46. Thus keep up on doing the right. Chevrolet -- not where they're -- thing we're not to the point where they go to -- habit of our -- got a medical check up -- where they go to the witches and and Salem and they say we're gonna put a curse on the jets sure are not there yet right not -- few more days when you consider all the TV stations and all the newspapers all the radio stations all the outlets looking for some sort of Super -- angle -- is that what is it -- it. You'll get to that kind of got Atlanta electric. Dog may be it chimpanzees who yeah -- dump on one team's logo and the other -- Giants actually exactly we're not close all but I have one of these today that I think is substantial. And relevant and very very important. And of course who but Karen Regan and the Boston Herald provides at forest. Brady the headline reads Brady does one good for a long time mentor. He's talking about his quarterback whisper his quarterback coach Tom Martinez who is you may or may not know. Is struggling with that type two diabetes and needs a transplant I heard he's got a week to live. That was like a year a year ago as a fighter right and in he's -- maximum time in a minute viewed. He's -- given company now and he's a guy who find -- Tom Brady's delivery he is the guy in the offseason he's the guy after a bad game he's the guy after a good game the Tom contacts. He watches everything Tom does on television from his California home and tells Tom a thing or -- about what he needs to improve his -- Here's the back story knowing that his mentor Tom Martinez needs a kidney donate a kidney transplant. Brady went to his FaceBook page recently. Ask for help. Now talk Martinez has been accepted into the kidney transplant program of Johns Hopkins. Hospital. Brady received a ton of responses this is a quote from Martinez. Tommy put on his FaceBook a request -- donor. And sixty people. Showed a willingness to donate their -- what our court already. Yeah and not even for Tom Brady just because Tom Brady -- hoping that takes a picture with them and signs and on a three -- Jersey Martinez goes on to say they're checking them out now. We'll go from there we'll see what kind of match we can come up -- now that's the back story here the little item. That is better than Bob Belichick not wearing that changed -- Laurie Cabot from one of the Salem -- things say and -- the page Eritrea. Martinez got a phone call from Tom after the 2320. Win over the ravens. The Tom famously said I sucked thanks for the defense -- bail -- out tonight. If that I think he was a little too hard on himself Martina said of the conversation he had Brady after that ravens' win. I think you have some bad throws no question all all he managed the game very well. Martinez would not reveal the exact nature of the advice he gave Tom after the AFC championship game. Ready -- here's the big idea wait for a quote. From this point on. I think you'll see Tom. -- his game up quite a bit for the Super Bowl Martinez said in fact I think you'll be looking at a Roman warrior leading his team to battle. That I know this it this battle to Laurie Cabot for the chip out.

No question no question when -- at the cosmic -- this year. Got the mountains to around Italy's. And -- in the -- because it's too bad guys that always before amendment prediction. Here from the cosmic muffin. I'm not buying into the as the you know call me cynical but. And a whole lot depends on Brady a lot revolves around Brady. And during this game. Averting her a couple of times it's kinda silly yes -- mean it. Because he sucked against the ravens -- enough thought about it initially your reaction is always going to be breeders' well. He's going to be breathing fire he's going to be looking to redeem themselves. That's silly is what do feet carved up the ravens like account that the Broncos would we sent. -- due for a let down I know you wouldn't that mean you think he's more determined quote unquote. Today because he -- if the ravens that he would have been otherwise playing soup.

oh probably not but but the the the the chances of him going one way or the other to me weigh heavily on the side of playing well. Not playing badly didn't -- appear to be an aberration for Tom Brady well yes but. That would be 1234. Of his last five. Play out its last seven Jerry have been disciplinary which -- Me either right I mean I think of an animator to you know where Charlotte about it you're out of the boat. -- I'm not the boat.

What does it what does NASA and evidently his high school picture of maybe you've been fairly easily make it in the crib or something that big -- do that. It's now made his -- Nelson where we're gonna. You know. Predict. We wanna be on the but. Get ahead of the curve for all these things and you're all these stories. All of these indicators. Just popular topics that will be coming up in -- these days next week. And you're right here's what's gonna happen and and one reason it's gonna happen is -- New York is part of this New York is looking for a reason to believe and a giant. And Brady is given them one. He's played since that he could look at seven mean that's probably good good idea. But since the giants came. In 070 wait the Super Bowl you know that's that was a -- where -- lost three straight season game -- something about that. And he won against the ravens but we all agree. It was at its best he's he said he sucked that's for a five. You can do just the opposite with Eli Manning you know. Who's seven and three I believe -- that the post season. Right eight touchdowns one panic. Eli Manning's only better. Post season roll post season run Tom Brady much better and I'm not do for locked down. -- try to help okay Carlos I'm not I'm would you I don't think Brady's gonna go out there and put up 57 rating. In a foot two picks in note touchdowns. But there's always this. When you look at the two quarterbacks. Which one is basing it better defects. That's a factor you know Joseph Flacco. Outplayed Brady but Joseph Flacco was facing. His best receiver was being covered by Julian Edelman and it. And -- this you know 6 o'clock Monday. Is what do you do Victor Cruz Whittle Letterman gets up and Israel. Is that mean that sounds like a joke it is a lot why not. You don't think Bolden is a tough assignment a bold bigger and he's. An -- of possession guy. Bolton the tough assignment for Julian settlement why do you assume -- or. It goes away got a program because of the way adamant performed against gold medal that they're gonna put on I would -- pit crews. Put the Nate Jones. It's a mismatch is your point right -- and nervous and out of the planned zone. Eli Manning's gonna have some success. -- underneath over the middle of the field it it just seems like if you take two quarterbacks and call on equal just as -- so hot. Andy's just knock off the aegis beat the best defense in the NFL I think on the road. He's he's got a much. Easier he's not quite as difficult the task road to these wide outs against these babies -- he does that Brady's tight ends. But he does have damn good receivers who make plays well I.

I make I feel a little careful putting all the flowers in in on the lap both of the Eli Manning for that victory against the 49ers I think about a couple of missed opportunities in the kicking game in the punt return game. They lose that game you're looking at the patriots playing the 49ers back up just a second to Tom Brady. And we all agree and again you know we always think this is necessarily the key to a game what have to happen will happen. -- would turn up that we see the ravens patriots game but can we agree what happened in that ravens' game. Cannot happen in this game and have the patriots have a challenge chance to win meaning. The talk radio talk that was it Tom Brady not need to play. At or near the top of his game. The patriots to have a chance to win if he has another 57 point five passer rating two and zero touchdowns but still touchdowns news they -- right. So he's got to be near or at the top of his game yes.

I would. I would say that was an aberration I would say he's gonna have been in the 57 ratings got to get the ball -- he cannot count on. -- cruiser Mario Manningham and drop -- of Wednesday that are in Chicago Lawrence Tynes snap -- And sedition act on such as -- does that bother you right.

Is shaking at 32 who has the right to know -- is right well right handed golfer when you shake it go a lot of emphasis say the word when you shake it it goes dead right. What do you when Shaughnessy next week in Indianapolis. And you say that we are dead wrong but that right -- shank and -- a -- Fish tank. 888 -- it goes to the left from me right footed kicker or right handed golfer is a -- so he did not.

the field goal he took the field. We know it's not a done deal though and and I -- what was all the people write or say he -- that the the via the kick our golfers that's all. Yet and and and we all agree that the yet. Hate to say of their destiny in their own hands right now not a they -- folder under item here is -- Game log patriots amana Tom Brady post season 21 games he's played now boy he's cardinals 21. Post season games and trying to find. Is there -- cumulative passer rating yet 87 point six. Last game 57 point five and now and again I don't wanna sound. You know they don't -- to -- only Gibson fan boys are upset articles game are right Broncos were a joke of a playoff team. The Broncos. I don't mean yeah I guess the they wanna play a game I guess I heard they beat the Steelers -- you -- the -- it was a steel -- stimulus -- team. So Roberto in now. The game before that the jets last year 89 rating before that. Baltimore 49 point one houses worst and giants in the Super Bowl 82 point five. Patriots San Diego game before game before that 66. Point four. Jacksonville and remember that 31 appointing next in the game. In the playoffs Jackson will be Denver the big upset and everybody was happy -- got an easier road to Super Bowl. No that was years of us that -- so you were Jackson. That that was one call from Moscow subjects -- 96007. Remembered 2007 January 12. Com that's Jacksonville pats went 31 when he went 26 of 28. -- 93%. Completion rating three touchdowns. 141. Point four rating. Okay good game -- at home. Game before that would have been that 2006. At Indianapolis when they got knocked often. By the colts 3834. Rating 79 point five week before that at San Diego that would be the Troy Brown knock on the yell out the name. 57. Point six. Before that in a good rating against the jets in the and in the playoff opener. Four that all five against Denver and Denver that would be the Champ Bailey game seven before. -- I think it says you get you to most 88 right now wooden ship yet NN I realize sometimes ratings can be deceiving because. Eli Manning gets -- was like 82 and and he was great I think he was great and even know -- came Danica Williams -- the ball twice. He was under incredible arrests if you put your quarterback and if if Brady's under the same -- this this week it'll look like the suitable for ears of giants win brings to us and and and in on the ravens. Did not Brady around at all.
