about the 6:20 mark

Remind me never to tick off Tedy Bruschi.


On the other hand I kinda want to tell Tedy he's not in it any more either. If he cares about the Pats then go coach. Otherwise I might want to pay attention to the actual players. Still loved it.

Here it is in text, but it's just not the same

Ouch.  I'm not sure that was fair.  "Ochocinco" was simply tweeting his respect for the amazing performance of a teammate.  I don't think there's any reason to rake him over the coals for that.  I mean, he could have just as easily complained about not getting a lot of targets; instead, he put all the credit on his QB.

[Eja117]

Makes me wonder if Tedy has some inside info he's not telling us. I think if Ocho were that bad they'd cut him.  Something is just not quite adding up.  Tedy is pretty known for not having tolerance for this kinda stuff. He called out Farve last year too saying there's no way a guy like that could lead or be respected in the locker room.

I don't think there's that much too it:

Ochocinco doesn't have a firm grip on the playbook, and Brady is having the offense operate at 140 mph at all times. What was the longest drive on Monday, something like 4 minutes and 30 seconds?

Teddy sucks. Hate the guy with a passion.
Why rip on the guy for saying good things about his QB? Would Teddy be happier if Chad acted like a cancer? He should be praising Tom everyday, if it wasn't for Brady, Teddy would have some bare fingers.

Teddy is just trying to get some attention is all. He's a moron plain and simple.

  I agree. It's not like he's writing a book called "Just Trhow Me the [dang] Ball"...

Did u just say Teddy sucks and that you hate him with a passion? Do u hate Troy Brown too?

Also, based off his reputation I wonder if he feels some pressure to publicly say something good about the Patriots to clarify that he's not upset.

They guy just gets under my skin. I'd rather listen to the sound of kittens being slaughtered than hear his "analysis".

I get annoyed by his SBLI commercials, but I can't think of lots of recently retired players that offer way better analysis. Good game commentary, but I don't know about analysis

Of the ESPN guys, I find Bruschi to be one of the better analysts along with Jaworski & Dilfer.

EDIT: Of course, that isn't necessarily saying much since I consider the ESPN coverage of the NFL to be the worst of the rights holders.

[Finkelskyhook]

The first thing he needs to do is change the idiotic name back to Chad Johnson, stop the idiotic tweeting, and stop bringing attention to himself.  He's not a freaking Bengal anymore.

I have no problem with what Bruschi said at all. 

[cman88]

I like Bruschi, but I think he is overreacting abit....ocho tweeted some praise for his QB, its not like hes complaining about not getting catches.

Brady ran a no huddle offense, thus he went with his receivers who most knew the playbook.

[Bahku]

Wow ... I always loved Tedy, (and I still do), but he needs to loosen up those u-know-whats a bit. OC was just trying to promote a team-mate, and I think that should be applauded, not chastised. Frankly, I'd question anyone who didn't see Brady's MNF performance as exceptional ... it would either be out of hatred, (and therefor unrealistic), or ignorance of the game. Good job, OC, (I agree) ... now catch a few balls.
