Re: Edwards on Rome
Originally posted by Mikey82Nice interview! The more I listen to Edwards, the more I am starting to like the guy. He's smart, very classy and knows how to say all the right things.I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

Re: Edwards on Rome
Long interview, I'll sum it up the best I can.
Edwards says the win wasn't easy, the entire team played well. He loves watching Roscoe return punts. Beating Seattle was a confidence builder, their defense is one of the best, sack was his fault. Talked about being more comfortable in year 2. Says he is more comfortable both on and off the field and experience is the best teacher. Says there is pressure from the fans, but it's no more than what the players put on themselves. Says he loves the area, loves putting in the work to put on a show for the fans who he also loves. Says he wanted to develop chemistry with Lee and get to know each other better. They both needed each other's approval going into this season. They both wanted to get on the same page. Having Peters back is huge. Peters is a great player, and leader in the locker room. The sooner he's playing, the better. Trent says just because Brady is out, doesn't mean the Patriots are done. He would rather beat the Pats with Brady than without. Rome thanks him for doing both the radio and television shows and he appears to be a fan of his.
Edwards came off as well spoken and mature and seems like he's been in the league for years. Looks like he's growing a beard as well. Hope this helps.
