Cosell’s Watching the Super Bowl: Patriots Offense was Easy to Defend : NFL Films Blog
Fascinating bullet point observations from Greg Cosell, one of our most respected analysts. You can be sure that there’s no bias in his analysis, and he’s seen as much football as anyone.
When you take all this in I can’t help but feel even more reinforced that this offense needs to add some new dynamics. The book on this current version is out and if you can execute (which good defenses can) it’s fairly straight forward to defend.
I think that the addition of Josh McDaniels is looming even larger now. He will bring in some new elements that will open things up for Gronkowski and Hernandez and Welker.
Patriots a very condensed and restricted passing game, Very little intermediate and downfield passing – They were easy to defend
NFL Sound FX offers deeper look at Super Bowl – Extra Points – Boston.com
If you’re like me and still can’t bring yourself to watch any video of any kind of Super Bowl 46 yet, here’s a nice breakdown of the Sound Fx episode that aired last night.
Some interesting stuff…
The pictures of Gronkowski and Light at the post-Super Bowl party didn’t bother me at all. This is a 22-year-old kid who gave his all to this team this year. People blow off steam in different ways and he’s entitled to do whatever he wants (within the law) as far as I’m concerned. I’m more angered that some low-life would take video of it and distribute it. I find that despicable. …
…As for the legacy talk, my take is simple: Talk to me when their careers are over. We always seem to want to write the ending to stories while they are going on. Why? Why can’t we enjoy the journey and then talk legacy? …
I have been having some internal philosophical debates in my head about what media is these days. What are we trying to accomplish? When I got into this business, I thought we were supposed to tell people what they needed to know. Now I think we’re trending in a dangerous area where we report based on what will get clicks. It bothers me…
I’m not perfect, but when I see a company soliciting publicity for dropping a boatload of Butterfingers in Boston and thanking Wes Welker for his drop — and then some report on it to give that company exactly what they want (publicity) — it makes me shake my head. What are we doing here?
Gronking Jersey Shore style
This is the first time I’m posting anything about Gronk’s post-game dance machine because it puts it in the comedic vein it should be in. I could not care less that Gronk was going nuts like this after the game. Those who judge him for it, or think he should’ve been acting depressed, should try putting themselves in his shoes for a second.
Remember all the focus that was on him and his ankle over the two weeks leading up the Super Bowl. Imagine how much time (morning, noon & night) he spent rehabbing over those two weeks. There was so much pressure on this kid after having a historically great season.
As much as I’m sure he wanted to win, this is ultimately his job, so imagine someone judging you for going out and partying your ass off after a horribly stressful and disappointing end to what was otherwise a fantastic year at your job. He’s still just in his early 20’s and he’ll possibly go down as one of the greatest tight ends of all time so cut him some slack. And if you’re really that upset with him just don’t root for him when the Gronk smash spikes start up again in 2012. In the meantime, this video is hilarious…
