Kaepernick, with his strong arm, had more success on deep throws even as he struggled in other aspects last season when he lost his starting job to Gabbert.
Brady simply smiled, gave a “Thank you guys, have a good day”, and left the media workroom.
“I don’t know”, Ryan said. We’ll be fired up, too.
In fact, when push comes to shove, I honestly think Brady might be the greatest quarterback in National Football League history. Both times, he answered in generalities, saying that he’s always excited to play and that the crowd should be supportive and that the Bengals are a good football team. Dalton’s 67.4 completion percentage is on pace for a new career-high, and he’s tossed five touchdowns to only two interceptions, a continuance of his more careful decision-making in the pocket a year ago.
The Patriots allowed Ryan Tannehill to throw for nearly 400 yards over the last three quarters and also failed to make life tough for Buffalo’s Tyrod Taylor in a 14-0 loss. It also would match their regular-season loss total from last season, when they tied club record with 12-4 mark. They went on to win the Super Bowl – with Brady earning MVP honors for the third time in his career – and that Sunday evening at Gillette Stadium was seen as the turning point of the season.
“I still feel like I’m still working myself back into my full potential”, he said. The 6-5, 306-pounder had previously been on the New England practice squad from September 15-28.
All of which doesn’t surprise Brady after he hooked up with LaFell 74 times for just 47 yards shy of 1,000 two years ago.
“It ultimately comes down to how well you’re playing as a team, ” he said.
“When you come in on team meetings on Monday and Wednesday and you’ve got to watch that play on the big screen in front of the whole team for 30 minutes, you’ll know”. Through five games, LaFell has 21 catches for 276 yards and two touchdowns, on pace to have the finest season since 2011 by any Bengals receiver not named A.J. Green. When they opened last season 5-0, they scored at least 24 points in each game. Trump said the remarks in a leaked 2005 video are “locker room talk“. “Are we going to rise up for the challenge?”
Question for “dad” Tom Brady.
Bengals WR Brandon LaFell.
Between Andy Dalton and Marvin Lewis, the Cincinnati Bengals may have the most boring yet successful quarterback-head coach combination in the league. The sacks have put the offense in tough spots and contributed to a significant decline in scoring. Brady fears that the Bengals, coming off a disappointing 28-14 loss at Dallas, may be looking to regroup and will be motivated in their effort to pin a shocker on the Patriots. Last year Trump touted the two as “great” friends.
“We just didn’t listen to (anybody) outside the locker room”.
OCTOBER FEST: The Patriots are an NFL-best 50-17 in the month of October since the 2000 season.
