Apparently dominating a conference championship game only gets you into the 80s?
Vince Wilfork Highlights @ The U (by Bball05k)
Such a perfect off-season video…
If you enjoy X and O breakdowns you’ll love this article about how the Patriots used Vince Wilfork against the Ravens and what a match-up problem he will pose for the Giants interior offensive line that struggled against the 49ers.
Yes, it’s a parade of “The Pats D is improving” articles today! We’re reaping the benefit of the defensive performance Cowboys game. Thank Hoodie for that, because I would’ve had to go into a media cocoon if it was going to be two weeks of “Where’s the pass rush” commentary. Here’s a sampling from Wilfork:
We’ve seen things go from terrible to pretty good,” said Wilfork. “Not great. We’re definitely not where we want to be, but at the same time we’re working towards it.”
“The past two weeks you’ve seen us, we have gotten better in certain areas and we’re going to continue to do that,” said the Patriots defensive captain. “Because Bill’s going to put the pressure us and we’re going to have to execute. If we execute our game plan and stop giving up mental mistakes and big plays we’ll be alright. I think the guys know that.”
Great video here of the always entertaining Wilfork. Some really funny stuff including asking Mangold how he’s feeling right after a play.
No, I don’t,” said Wilfork, offering about as high a compliment as an opponent can with that statement. “He’s probably one of the best offensive linemen in the game. He’s definitely a leader on that team for them. I’m pretty sure that they would love for him to play because I think he gives them a spark. It’s absolutely a difference when he’s in and when he’s not in. I think they need that leadership and everything around that. I expect for him to be in there to get things going and everything and get his team off to a good start.
