    Tomlin said he's optimistic that Pouncey will play this Sunday.

    I think only giving him a 1 year extension means he needs to do better.

    The only thing that should be extended is a boot into Tomlin's ass.

    I'm a bit concerned about Pouncey, and not because of the injury. He used to the most athletic lineman they had but Sunday night he looked slow. They have played Collins for what 3 years in Cleveland and he was never a world beater there. He comes back to NE and suddenly beats Pouncey on a pulling center play. I think he is still solid in pass protection and can hold his block at the line just not sure he is the guy who gets to the second level on blocks anymore.

    I missed the presser. Did Tomlin address the biggest injury of all? I'm talking the injured pride the entire team suffered? I'll hang up and take my answer off the air.

    Some people just don't have good sense.

    I think on that particular play there were a few things at work - first Pouncey was a bit slow, as you say; but also it was the exact same play they'd run before and NE were simply ready for it. Bad play call and bad execution.

    I tried to listen to Tomlin's presser this a.m.
    I made it until about 2 minutes in when he referenced 'splash plays'. I'd had enough, but before I could turn it off he said 'splash play' 3 more times. I've been hearing about 'splash plays' for years, but he only refers to the lack of them.
    I don't even know what a splash play is.:unsure:

    The team took a dump in the Boston harbor and got their ass wet, that's about as close to a splash play as we saw...

    I thought TJ was going to have one when he hit Brady's arm but the football gods said, "No, no, no, not on my watch.."

    It was.probably just a case of the Pats knowing what was coming and being there early.

    'Splash plays' seem to be nonexistent, but he keeps rambling on about them.

    I was hoping someone would understand how ridiculous Tomlin's clichés are as ridiculous as that video was in reference.
