Albert Breer: Patriots handling of Rooney Rule ‘looks like a sham’

"What gives the Patriots the right to do this?"

"At least pretend it's more than a technicality."

"Now you've gotta get Mike Vrabel. Because Vrabel gives you a culture."

"Jerod Mayo clearly was not given a lengthy enough opportunity considering what Bill Belichick left him with from a talent perspective."

"Why not put this decision in the hands of people who care about the big long-term picture of the franchise instead of trying to win the game?"

"I think it was unfair to Coach Jerod Mayo."

"I appreciate them at times, but sometimes they just have to know their place and understand it’s a work in progress."

"The other documentary as you remember is a roast, I wouldn’t count that one"

"Insanity is a fine line between brilliance and madness. This leans heavily towards the latter."

"Those are not as easy as people think. That's a tough call sometimes, fellas."

"I am not a doctor. But I know it's warm blood that young, healthy, athletic guys are able to generate."

Boston College fans hoping to watch their bowl game in Boston are getting bumped to MeTV thanks to the Patriots being flexed to Saturday.

“I just wanted to do that one more time!”

The move comes after the Bills secured a marquee victory on Sunday against the NFC's current No. 1 seed Detroit Lions.

"You said it."

"That was about as warm and fuzzy as it got with coach Belichick."

"Jay doing his best 'Bill Belichick after the 2019 season' impression."

"This team is getting worse. Kraft will do nothing and bring everyone back."

"Even when they do well, he doesn't give them credit."

"You seriously think Belichick wouldn't come back?"

'I think that’s the true test of what we do as announcers.'

"It's time to blow this thing up."

"What I will say is we have a room full of guys with the mentality that you got to change the page every day."

"This is beyond tough to swallow. We're not even into November and the season's over."
