While the Bills have been talking smack all week (evidently, they “hate” the Patriots), Brady said Wednesday he’s too busy preparing for the game to get into trash talk. You just don’t want him to go off on you for three touchdowns or whatever. “Yeah, he’d have to look like King Kong”.

Fellow tight end Scott Chandler kept it simple. “I’m not going to get into how we’re going to cover him”, Ryan kibitzed with reporters.
Gronkowski is in all likelihood the best tight end in the National Football League , the only one who could be considered in the same caliber as Gronk is the Seattle Seahawks Jimmy Graham. We don’t really know yet, what our game plane is. “If things aren’t going very well…Look, we’re not on a short leash here, but we’re not going to sit there and let it go eight games of not being very good”. Gronk did so, and then was asked for his phone which he obligingly gave to Franco who proceeded to wrap it in a towel, throw the towel and make it disappear.
“That’s coach’s decision, and I can see why he did that”, Hoyer said.
Rob Gronkowski’s value to the New England Patriots was recently reflected in how Bill Belichick deployed him this preseason.
“He’s a great coach and he’s obviously got them confident”, Brady said.
On Monday, Ryan said he “will stand by (his) record against” Gronkowski. We’ll press these guys. “Gronkowski helped pick off a Pittsburgh defender to clear space for Chandler to make a simple one-yard touchdown catch”.
The reflection from the diamonds on his four Super Bowl rings hasn’t blinded Brady to the fact the Bills have one of the stronger defenses in the NFL. But we will just try to hang in there.
Q: Aaron Williams said he doesn’t like the Patriots? He finished with five catches, for 94 yards and three touchdown receptions.

“If they don’t cover him, you’re going to figure out ways to get him the ball”. Edelman said Gronkowski is now viewed as one of the team’s leaders, with Tom Brady adding, “He’s a guy that I have a lot of trust in, there’s no doubt about that”.
