" Welcome back it's a patriot Monday the quarterback our roles all the different Boomer Esiason boomer joins us some AT&T hotline. AT&T your world delivered good morning mr. Esiason parties are."
" I'm drug Erica posted morning halfway point all -- up --"
" You know I think this qualifies as a pretty interesting Sunday of NFL football yesterday including -- by the way boomer. Going from not a believer to believers far as the Bengals are concerned we'll talk about that later. Well in terms of the overview question Korea does in these close call with Houston. New Orleans close call Carolina and Green Bay get beat by a winless Tampa Bay speak more to human nature of playing down to an inferior opponent. Or is this just the NFL and are all hard to win."
" Well welcome again after all the all oracle went all work predict -- like Stamford that I would be a prime example of didn't like -- route 500 with -- it seems like each and every week that. You know this is a -- which usually around week 891011. You're gonna have major upsets and have teams that are teetering you know on the brink of total disaster like Tampa Bay Buccaneers have been all year long and a comin' back complaint against you -- very well obviously didn't take them seriously and you know we don't talk about it and I guess it is somewhat of cliche that go to guys get paid you know wanted to it is competitive believes there is. And nobody and I mean nobody -- Monday morning. You know the bad -- about terrible loss and that's what the reasons why all the years I have assumed Belichick has gotten that the patriots have. -- always seem to for the most part. -- away at Pappas and her."
" does the colts a gift from god Houdini escape act versus Texas is a good thing or a bad thing for the patriots next week. --"
" All overall sensibly have played great the last two weeks monopoly -- got some great numbers and he himself. Has played really well. You know scored twenty points yesterday in all eighteen weeks 88 points we. For a discount tells me that maybe some defense is actually in things on film isn't that keeping them out of the end -- a little bit of a rope a -- mentality epic that undoing one -- is probably -- five or six years ago in the playoffs so. I don't -- have a -- dormant accounts would it would be all the injuries that they have on defense would be an experienced that they -- in the secondary. Bomb the other up. The other ports in the in the replied well I think one of those ports has to be there are special teams they have not had. And you run back against them they play good solid sound. Fundamental defense has given them good field position in the of course you know patent completing a lot of passes the last couple weeks just not completely patched up."
" Well I'm looking at the numbers now boomer and it's hard to believe but the colts have given up fewer points -- the patriots fewer points than anybody in fact. All of it here but this week out here is that they've lost their corners. And the Blogspot Sanders. Is is this I mean is this if flawed colts team that is just. Gotten the breaks and just gotten and they want them to rakes in the scheduled to go in no and a vague gonna. Be -- for a fall not just this week against the patriots but maybe two or three more times before we're done here."
" While also say that you know park yesterday the previous four quarterbacks they've played again. You know we're just average at best to blow up its players and he took a look at this certainly. Concede that in the defense certainly has feasted on. The weaker of the offenses in the league and then over the next four weeks including yesterday have used -- twice Indianapolis. And I'd -- while it could offer in the deployment -- welcome much more and not New England put up that -- Our mom might figure that is brutal murder. Their defense going to be exposed and I still -- bank. Knowing what offensively has played a really clean crisp game. And oh that sounds crazy but even watched yesterday I don't miss you guys get that -- Romney's problem. I've never really thought that you look back comfortable yesterday. And it wasn't believe that -- yet they still want spoke for program 300 York city still in. In my estimation and maybe it's just because I watched so closely watched over the years he just hasn't really hit his stride yet. And maybe you know next Sunday and that'll be the moment. That he that he does actually hit its stride again obviously wanted to have a record approximately."
" Obviously the stats belie an orchard Maine but the stats be -- that to me and I don't think he would agree with that and and we talked to Ben Watson about this the other day because he heard that question that pigs. Aren't quite click -- any any and is that we just 19 it was at 94 is seven now. Previous two games were 94 to seven I don't they they -- he's been division rival by you know ten points in Brady's they've. The threw for 300 and moss had a huge game. It they just raise the bar in 07 so high that we're never gonna be happy with this with this team with the softens."
" Yeah I'm telling you right now that because of also evident because of all the great years and that that comment and because he's always been subject fluid player such are on time deliverable. Football but when you watch yesterday's game and -- out argued you'll -- same thing I you know I don't know how we'll put it and I know he's not. Totally frustrated by -- imagination corporate front yards to put -- points to put up these figures out how in the world. Can somebody say that they have in the -- their best football I I know you'll know exactly what I'm talking about I know that there had to be a little bit of into just like you know I'm not really just wholly on. At that game that even he even noted that the game against Tampa even know we had to give it. -- even though he played well yesterday. I just don't honestly believe that he feels like he's playing his best football come into west them. And I and I almost guarantee that you'll probably. The stock answer regularly do better there are areas that I can be better. But maybe get it out of -- I just -- that is totally comfortable and yet the bar is set high. Now when you talk about the upper Echelon unit down to talk about -- on recorder -- he's talking about offenses. You know that set records in and keep people back on their heels Gary you'll expect almost. Corporate. Execution each and every week I spoke to their their epic their -- predicted better each and every week. Maybe you know maybe it is Sunday -- go up they're they're they're -- game that there's gonna need to -- they."
" Maybe I'm not too far in the forest to see the trees on this from builds its -- my perception. The patriots before -- we're talking about here are just a little bit flying under the radar in the NFL terms of the overall. Perception by the league. You know certainly they're not they're not stringing wins together like you did 2007. Matt Cassel was just under the microscope last year with Brady out he's got the colts meet in the saints and -- looking at them it used to be when you turn on and a whole lot ever on any any football show patriots patriots patriots patriots seemed debate that maybe they're flying under the radar bit I'd end this week with with the colts coming up."
" Well you have and ferocity yes is that they've been helped by an opera aren't network as -- as -- We -- we lose that their plan you know another good team right either yes piano released national epic about this for a second. Now the F Indianapolis in the one on one and BC's this week and then you have the -- point one on Monday night a couple of weeks. I mean you know you would pick those would be our games our network in they have been. Take away from must but you know don't give into -- always focused -- what I consider our flagship -- Or so it is no question I think all of us at CBS route recognize. Night that clearly it's gonna be bad problems for. Carson Palmer Tom Brady it's going to be. Of course eight Manning and it's probably -- the proper superpower and not. In the playoffs so oh we got a long way to go and in the -- still. A great football game they have great coaching staff they do it -- they do everything right com but politics. And yet I'd like figures are obviously -- these past years extra -- an apple product just exactly -- there really are."
" A little item -- on yesterday's patriot -- shouldn't there be a rule in the NFL. If you run your mouth all week long like Joe Joe reported record at least make one -- may be one assist."
" That they're going to point over the plate yesterday and forget what was in the second half the dollar looked over could be -- you know what I wonder that the Joey Porter fact it was a penalty that was called -- Where that challenge called maybe it was on the bullets where -- any what I posted perfect actually. But right chest between numbers."
" Oh when John John get him in the DL him in the chops a little bit though."
" Well aren't I didn't pick the economic hit is Albert in a under the Chan and and you know -- was ordered that the Joey Porter yeah back you know what -- not the officials know we're human too but away. Or reacting all the chatter that you reporter what those games."
" Hey -- one thing that Peyton Manning doesn't have to worry about anymore even though. These ads -- ups and downs as you point no longer of people asking who the best Manning. Who's the best quarterback in the Manning -- the what the hell happened. Eli and the giants."
" Prepare the -- questioned you know even played really good yesterday he played well about. When yesterday it's just like you know it did they hurt they're mired in -- always on defense that it's just capsule lightning. Are they give a 112 points -- yesterday's game and one of the reasons that it was that it is so shocking that the they've played so well the previous five games but if you look. And they played those previous five games of their bottom commuting. They were feasting on terrible football games. -- But they were -- four part weeks ago Eric. Antonio -- basically sit in their game against the raiders -- scrimmage and and most teams in the -- I think to report Robert yesterday. You know will be humbled and asleep at some point that'll keep the option and I think that Antonio -- has announced that Leicester which. But yesterday. Religion that one place you can not. Copper balance bolt out of the back. With a linebacker won the game is on the line and -- sure to become the order of the New York Giants and absolutely awful play in. Call for that defense and really cost them and Juliet in the."
" You know you look at San Diego it's almost it's almost comical when they start slow because they always start slow and they come on strong and they. Oh to win that division Denver San Diego or at number one -- like."
" Right now the way teams -- client are I would. And it would be the team that seems to be picked up steam now on rose -- last couple weeks but. I say that don't expect that -- to win about it but it -- loses tonight I think the San Diego's probably when. Division in Denver can -- knocked them off condemn her kind. I think that rule on that I mean it's a major announcement that we nine that uh oh we. Nine game is -- mean that much and that and -- but when you probably thought we all do we know that when teams start. Also implying well. Are they can source orient or 5671. Together in the middle seat and all of sudden it's a completely different set of circumstances that make -- now."
" Now if my memory serves me correctly after Pittsburgh deals of Denver tonight. They host the Cincinnati Bengals could be your first plays six and two Cincinnati Bengals in Pittsburgh next week I guess shoot you you now believe they're for real year old team."
" Well I always. In I never really wanted to jump on the bandwagon like to think that today earlier in the show. Com because I never believe that their defense is going to be as good as everybody thinks it is very yesterday at what they -- the ball more special defense -- Joe -- two letters that -- and holding them like -- twenty yards total offense the defense is for real and that's -- I think next -- market I consider -- assuming the -- a major injuries up for the Beckel I will -- the angles next week. BP Europe expert -- was -- you don't want limelight. It in accurate -- a lot about since I'm used back in 2004. Is stupid typical Gupta. Competitor players on defense. And they're responding to their defense coordinator Mike -- Remember about -- optical losses widened unexpectedly. And may have played at a very very -- levels play with and who Dayton Dayton Dayton a bit but I bet that part upon."
" If the big wigs on park avenue in the NFL offices looked down on most touchdown celebrations with sharp -- cell phones and group bugs in group dances. My guess is that Ochocinco running around the dollar bill in his hand to bribe the officials as they're determining whether he made a touchdown or not is not gonna -- well with Roger Goodell."
" I am so glad you brought that up because related heavy energy reflect people Ochocinco. A wave that has taken Albion the last couple years and -- that it does. It's very smart it's very it's very funny I think he's for the most part nine. 90% -- I'm really good school -- he creates controversies. -- a lot of talk about and he is quite creative. Like yesterday it would he doesn't understand is what that looks like yeah and they are not going to be happy it to eighty park avenue. That they will come down on him. And -- because any hint of bribery. Gambling no matter how calm in this and it may local -- how funny it may seem. To Chad Ochocinco into his supporters. He. And a whole month span ports in the world record state are -- it -- about Bo on at twenty popped out smoke aren't or maybe fifty -- fine."
" Why why why -- he movie that's later you know Peter King reported that he made some calls and the league is not investigating and not taken seriously."
" I don't know about Isaac and we say that now. But I'm sure at the -- as good as the debate heats up as to what be to me anyway what the what that looks like in the perception of what that is it's exactly what he -- always wants to try to stay away from so and remember that that is something that he brought on to the fuel applied its power -- to be all right we'll play you know and celebrations are one thing but when you. You bring in something in all the -- something your mind where."
" How much -- have a seven dollar billion dollar just one dollar dollar area -- what do got a -- and and the week the always will be keep all but said that's more than the officials -- a year. I don't know how to -- note that means no and a half of his path of his wise cracks just escape me. Will see I guess we'll see this week whether Peter -- right there. Where you guys are right but. -- said the did not."
" I absolutely -- guys -- good I think that after they look at it's. And they recognize that that followed bill was brought to the -- applied a vocal should've never been there in the first -- you will get. Line and customize my perspective there are people looked -- offices will take a purchasers were."
" Is there one unemployed superstar Super Bowl winning coach. That is the object of every media -- affection or do different -- media owners think carefully about the 45 guys up there with rings."
" Not -- a lot who's gonna happen. To do it where they are aware of the collective bargaining agreement and make sure that the owners understand. That there is some sort of cost certainty is they move forward before. Like you know -- our director Jon Gruden like -- Michael on where -- and Brian Billick. Get offers this note guys that they -- go back in coach they're going to be. Given huge contracts that the going to be given by teams that needed instant credibility with their -- right and -- a -- wanna pay that money until they know exactly. What the deal of the players has moved forward I would -- we your outlook -- the -- should even party -- it without him there was one team. Like good people outstanding on the sideline because it would be absolutely. Perfect fit for mark perspective. How did you guys each to gases and that Arabs -- team where he said the team's name and you sit him as coach you'd say to yourself you know and that makes a lot of."
" Carolina. No no no. CT and and that's beat him that would make the most -- just a perception -- He broke out in. York giants. Now come -- part of the notes there are now Washington Redskins. Now you thick book now I wanna let's end this letter in the mile. -- No well you got technical. Would be and you'd be Pittsburg Steelers and it's. Probably the coach and Chicago metro right now so Chicago. Chicago where. That -- factor now."
" Their coach has to be in trouble doesn't it in the Chicago bears' co 500 and and the coach. Get a contractor -- superstar quarterback right."
" Right exactly so that was one of the reasons I was thinking you know well Chicago Bears and build our -- what was his reaction. Aldridge laughed at -- every week because I'm always got to put a somewhat is always want to get out there lot of respect but at a -- I don't wanna tell you see I told you so but not -- perplexed why keep them. -- but yet culture so summed up we're going at all bounces and later if he ever does decide to go back coach. And debate the way I looked at as the coach you do. It is a no matter where you go Ottawa coach with you I don't wanna be of those sixteen hour day meeting never gonna come up with some. For one applaud took the oath was the output doubled news TV show I will be worked -- posted TV show wants."
" A -- you think the order of priorities would be for owner -- to bring a guy in his would be called recently they were successful the league. How contemporary they are with the way things are done now whether the the players' coach -- guy a whether they can be like power lose a bunch of guys free agencies and -- maintain a competitive edge as it did in Pittsburgh what are the priorities are -- mines."
" What they're cute things principals want -- what kind of coach who's gonna energize the fan base the -- it didn't -- Dan Snyder and you know -- 90000 seat stadium and 72. Without of people or shot up one week that it 68000 the next week in and 60000 Tutsis and those on your -- Your hands and the fans are rumbling in the in the media and you know USC and -- you know -- all that stuff and all that stuff he'd need to energize Japan's you have to. That immediately go and yet. Credibility that's what you want. Joe -- the last round. And that's why I think anybody who was out there right now what could be gruden weathered the home grand -- Shanahan. Shanahan or our. On target. Those idea those guys would immediately excite that fan base and that's usually what you know. I think owners look report that the blockade that speaks well to the -- and they can energize that fan base unlike you know what Eric. Angie -- we."
" I think go I think that gives a gruden and power and evangels Holmgren and Shanahan wouldn't agree that there more. Dynamic more charismatic."
" I would I would dictionary and gruden and an hour or probable -- regards that a -- Arnold. From what I sit I would say I want I want one of these guys to be the face of mark franchise because people all three talk -- well. All repaired except in this sleek -- that's successful quarterbacks. And -- re -- or legitimate football coaches where it's football persons all the other stuff later."
" I -- looks now and Michael Vick is not gonna stay in Philadelphia. Because they don't Needham why did they sign him and widened somebody else step up. And make a move for America's clearly other teams need Michael Vick more than the Eagles."
" I don't a lot of Eagles find amber I do know that you know that second year of a contract that that paid him five point two million whatever. Immediately knew that the Eagles -- prevent cutting him. People -- old analogue the freedom to trade them. We know why would a team trade for Michael Vick when they note that the Eagles will have to cut up because this -- cap constraints. And you know they can end up about spotting him as a free agent so not so sure that. Michael the complex quarterback obviously we have enough -- them to determine whether or not he has legitimate chance to plant. You're right that ability to an -- them pay for anything else. To sell tickets is to go watch a player that once I was on most exciting personally."
" Maybe we wrap this up with -- Freud's staff of the weekend that would be. The Cleveland offense has five offensive touchdowns the New Orleans -- and it's. That's -- seven and I'm reading today that Lerner is already talking number bringing Michael Graham as a general manager which I guess means Adam he'd be in charge apartment you when it's time."
" That's exactly what would happen to question that I would have reserves and -- actually has -- in the bank because -- does. Are you still get the same type of the public -- that the Cleveland Browns need to get themselves away from. I don't know if all we're really wants to go to Cleveland yeah that might just be being floated out there right now. To make sure that Mike's got a man in the mix for other opportunities. Out there but clearly the Cleveland Browns that is something. -- that's one of those standards is right now yeah that is just absolutely. You know turn off but what they're what they're watching every --"
" Are some Boeing ever relaxing Monday night for once and and your next involved with the patriots and know what's what selectmen again."
" My next appointment next Monday night game is going to be the Patriot Act that wants right now we're. Now we're targeted records -- get it up close and personal -- the Buffalo Bills the first week treatment. I can't it's him against troop reasons thanks to develop the absolute circus like atmosphere."
" and always a pleasure talking football with you talking next Monday. I start a sizable Dennis and Callahan of AT&T outline AT&T your world delivered."
