Pats' D has struggled on 3rd down.

Schefty with the reverse mojo.

Broncos win = locked.

I would look for the seam and the 7 (corner) route to Gronkowski from the Patriots this Sunday night in Foxborough versus the Broncos defense. Two routes that give Gronkowski the opportunity to create separation/leverage within the stem to win at the point of attack in the end zone.

And the reason I am focusing on Gronkowski here—and the Patriots inside the red zone—is due to the importance of scoring touchdowns versus the Broncos. New England can’t get caught in situations where they are kicking field goals if they want to send Peyton Manning home with a loss.

Yeah I think it was Bruschi that really went into Bill's weekly approach. Apparently every day in the film room he dwells on every negative play they did and then just gushes about what the opposing team does well.

Hypothetical example:

He'll show someone dropping a ball and tell the room that a kid at Foxboro highschool makes that catch and they're supposed to be professionals.

Then he'll throw on DRC in coverage and at long length will just praise his reads, his breaks, his coverage and his play on the ball.

Apparently by Sunday, they're so sick of hearing great things about the opposition they want to kill them. It's a big part of how he keeps that chip on their shoulder.

lol, talk about reverse psychology at it's best. I gotta think this type of motivation can wear down players after a while. I always thought BB was more of a "know your assignment, do your job, execute and we will win" kind of a motivator. He's probably a little of both.

Mmmmmeeeeehhhh.

From what I can tell this guy doesn't like the Broncos. This was the crew that officiated the Broncos vs. Giants game earlier this season.

Every time they called a phantom penalty that gave the Giants a 1st down, it was as if he took joy in saying "automatic, FIRST DOWWWWWN"

(at least that's what I recall)

Ugh.
