Bill Belichick dismisses Antonio Brown q

Had Bill Belichick Justin Morneau Jersey referenced "Snapface" during his Wednesday pre s conference, we'd be looking at bingo. While we didn't get that, the head coach had one of his more wide-ranging chats with the media this season.The most newsworthy of topic, of course, centered around , who to owner Robert Kraft on social media on Tuesday for disparaging comments he made about him following his release from the team earlier this season. There's been some speculation that this could eventually lead to a reunion, but Belichick was not much for words on this subject, giving a rather icy answer."You'd have to ask Robert about that," he said. "I mean, every week you guys ask me about players not on our team and so every week it's going to be the same answer."Hammer, meet nail.Things did turn a little more playful with the head coach when the other viral story of Tuesday involving Jerry Jones was brought to his attention. The Cowboys owner told a story about a. It was there that the future Patriots head coach -- who was just fired by the -- told Jones, "I can coach. If you ever get and opportunity, don't forget about me." "Jerry was easy to spot -- big white jacket with a blue star," Belichick said with a smirk. "I don't know if I quite remember it the way Jerry described it, but he's Blake Parker Jersey probably got a better memory than I do." "I have all the respect in the world for Jerry," he added. "He's totally committed to winning. That organization is committed to winning."Of course, we know that Jones never picked up the phone to call Belichick and bring him to Dallas; that pairing only lives in some sort of alternate reality. For the here and now, they'll square up against one another in what is a highly impactful matchup in terms of the current playoff picture. At 6-4, Dallas is looking at the No. 4 seed in the NFC, while the 9-1 Patriots are top dogs currently in the AFC. New England may be the No. 1 seed at the moment, but the offense has struggled over the course the season. When asked about how Glen Perkins Jersey the offense and the team as a whole can prepare to face Dallas, Belichick threw a dig at "experts" who say they know how this game will play out prior to it actually being played and then quoted United States president Dwight Eisenhower, which was the proverbial hanging on the rim after a thunderous dunk."Look, I would say when you game plan in this league you never really know what the other team is going to Taylor Rogers Jersey do," he said. "I know there are a lot of experts out there that have it all figured out. Unfortunately, I'm not in that group."The team's played four, five, six other teams and they've done different things against different teams for different reasons. Then they play you, you haven't played them, so you don't really know what they're going to do. Are they going to treat you the way they treat somebody else? Are they going to treat you differently than you they treated somebody else? It's not the same plays, it's not the same players, so there's always an element of 'Alright, well here's what they did in the last four games,' but that's not against you. Teams will do different things against your team than they've done against other team. As they should." He later added: "It's just like Dwight Eisenhower said, preparation is important for the war, and once the battle starts, you can just throw it all out the window you play the war, fight the battle. That's what we do."It's not the first time Belichick has invoked that Eisenhower quote, which actually goes, "In preparing for battle I have always found that plans are usele s, but planning is indispensable." before the Patriots Minnesota Twins Jersey squared off with the Colts in the AFC Championship in January 2015:"It's like going back to Dwight Eisenhower's quote, preparation is everything until the battle starts, and then it doesn't mean anything. Then you react to what happens in the game. In his case, what happens in the battle."The Patriots went on to win that game 45-7.

Baker Mayfield 2020 outlook Evaluating t

After Travis Wood Jersey setting the rookie record for touchdown pa ses in 2018, had a down second season on a team that ultimately fell short of ma sive expectations.Is he primed to take a leap forward, or was 2019 a sign of things to come for the first pick in the 2018 ?With the fate of Cleveland football firmly in Mayfield's hands, let's explore everything about his environment with the Browns and what Mayfield needs to do to take the next step as a quarterback.Previous installments in this young QB outlook project: , , , , , How Mayfield has improved since he was a prospectThese positive developments in a quarterback's game are noteworthy because they indicate the distinct po sibility of future growth.Here's a snippet of before the draft, and my pro comparison for him was :The Mayfield and Keenum stories are fascinating and extremely telling as to the current state of the NFL and the direction in which offenses are headed. Keenum had a ridiculously productive collegiate career in Houston's spread, pa s-happy, shotgun-only offense from 2007 to 2011. The 6-foot-1, 208-pounder exhibited decent athleticism and fine touch downfield. He consistently found open targets quickly and hit them accurately ... then went undrafted. At a similar size, with a similar collegiate career and similar strengths, Mayfield is likely to be selected in the top 10 -- or top 6 -- in the most-hyped quarterback cla s in 35 years.

And for as much as I actively try to avoid "gut feelings," I had a feeling le s positive than the consensus that year regarding Mayfield. Why? I remember my exact cause for concern. He was only pre sured 27.3% of the time during his final season with the Sooners, and to me, a fair amount of those pre sures were strictly due to bad decisions by him moving inside the pocket and toward defenders. I didn't think he was prepared to handle what would be considered a normal amount of pre sure in the , although he did flash the ability to drift inside the pocket.Beyond that, the situation in Lincoln Riley's offense was, to this day, the most luxurious situation for a quarterback I've ever scouted.

AFC East 2020 preview One homegrown play

The AFC East is going through a transformation. After twenty years of dominance, departed the this offseason, which has effectively swung open the door for one of these teams in the division to dash to the throne of the AFC East like it's a game of musical chairs. New England is still looked at as a threat in the division with Bill Belichick still leading the show in Foxborough, but things are hardly the guarantee they once were.As the , and look to take the power in the division and the Patriots try to cling onto it for a little while longer, each club will be leaning on some key homegrown talent to help achieve their ultimate goal. After all, the best bargain going right now in the is to have elite players contributing while they are still on a rookie contract. With that in mind, we've highlighted one homegrown player that is still on his rookie team on each team in the division that is will pivotal to their team's succe s in 2020.One thing Wil Myers Jersey that you'll notice here is that each of these homegrown talents either are the franchise quarterback for their respective franchise or are directly involved with making sure their signal-caller has smooth sailing in 2020.Without further ado, let's get to these youngsters. Jets: , QBDrafted: 2018 (Round 1, No. 3 overall), USCFinal year of rookie deal: 2022 (includes potential fifth-year option) 2019 was a weird year for Sam Darnold. After Week 1, the Jets franchise QB mi sed the following three games due to mono and really cut out New York's season before it could truly get started. Following his return, Darnold battled inconsistency. One moment he was upsetting the and completing over 71% of his pa ses and the next moment he was throwing four interceptions to the Patriots Darnold has shown flashes of being a bonafide franchise cornerstone for the Jets, but New York does need to do a better job at putting the nece sary pieces around him to reach that potential. It appears like they are starting to do that this offseason by adding to their offensive line in free agency and at the . As long a Darnold stays upright, that should allow him to show the Jets bra s that he can be their quarterback for the next decade.

Despite a top-5 defense and the addition of star receiver this offseason, what continues to give some folks pause about how high the Bills could po sibly go in 2020 is the quarterback.Josh Allen has made strides since Buffalo selected him with the No. 7 overall pick, but he still needs to be more efficient throwing the football. His completion percentage in 2019 (58.8%) was up from his rookie season (52.8%), but it still needs to at least get above 60% for Buffalo to have a shot at a deep playoff run. If Allen is able to do that, the combination of his arm and legs (510 rushing yards and nine rushing touchdowns in 2019) will be hard to match in the division at the quarterback spot. BUF QB #17 Patriots: , RBDrafted:2018 (Round 1, No. 31 overall), GeorgiaFinal year Manuel Margot Jersey of rookie deal: 2022 (includes potential fifth-year option) Heading into the 2019 season, Sony Michel was looked at as a darkhorse to po sibly lead the AFC in rushing yards. After all, the former Georgia back was a key cog in the Patriots run to their LIII title in 2018 where he rushed for 336 yards and six touchdowns over three playoff games. Unfortunately for New England's offense, that promise never materialized on the field last season. Michel still got over the 900-yard rushing mark for the second consecutive year, but it was hardly as efficient as his yards per attempt dropped by nearly an entire yard. His contributions in the pa sing game (something the Patriots hoped would develop at the NFL level) were minimal.As New England now turns the page on the Tom Brady era, Michel is looking at a pivotal year in his Erick Aybar Jersey career. Not only will he continue to try and live up to that first-round billing, but he'll need to return to the player he was during that Super Bowl run for the Patriots to have any sort of succe s with second-year quarterback po sibly under center. New England will need to have a running game that opposing offenses fear to keep them honest and give the likes of Stidham some breathing room as he gets situated in the offense. If Michel is able to do that, New England will be better served in 2020. If he continues to battle with inefficiency, Bill Belichick will be quick to send him to the bench.

The 2019 season was a bit of a breakout for Gesicki as he was able to catch 51 balls for 570 yards and five touchdowns. He also averaged over 5.5 targets per game.Going forward, Gesicki is going to be a very important safety valve for first-round quarterback whenever he eventually takes over under center for Miami. Rookie quarterbacks tend to throw to tight ends a bit more as they get their feet wet in the NFL, and if Gesicki can prove to be a reliable option for him, the Dolphins offense will be better served for the foreseeable future on multiple fronts.
