These Patriots Porn Mic'd Up Super Bowl Highlights Just Keep Getting Better
Last night NFL Films dropped more Super Bowl LIII Mic’d Up segments, these on FS1’s Turning Point. And trust me, it’s two-tissue porn. Because you’ll not only furiously pleasure yourself like a bonobo monkey, you’ll cry genuine tears. Thanks always to the guys who flout the NFL’s copyrights and make these available on the Twitters.
In no particular order:
1. Jason McCourty’s break up of Brandin Cooks in the end zone was an adjustment based on a breakdown on the same route combo against the same quarters coverage in the 4th quarter. He was instructed to become a post safety if he saw Brandin Cooks running vertical past the 4-deep zone and it worked to perfection. This is the kind of coaching that got Brian Flores the Miami job after just one year as a DC:
2. Josh McDaniels improvised a Gronk passing route on the sidelines of a Super Bowl like he was drawing up a play on the palm of his hand in touch football:
3. Belichick and David Andrews have a moment:
4. Lamarcus Joyner tries to match wits with one of the best shit talkers in football. He loses:
5. Joe Thuney handles Aaron Donald on solo blocks on two of the biggest plays of the game and Donald admits he was beaten. Pay special attention to way Thuney kept his feet under him, maintained his balance and gave no chance whatsoever that the best interior pass rusher of our lifetimes would ever get around or through him. And how much time Brady had:
6. Edelman thanks Belichick for standing by him when he was suspended. You’ll need that tissue for when he uses the word “fatherly”:
7. Keep that tissue handy for when Edelman and Matthew Slater say they’ll always be brothers:
8. Slater’s post-victory speech. Slater’s. Post-victory. Speech. I said these were in no particular order but I definitely saved the best for last. That’s one Kleenex for when he says “Never forget what it was like when they said you weren’t good enough. That you shouldn’t be here.” And a whole box for the way someone says “Too old,” and Brady says “That’s right.”
That smile on the GOATs face alone puts the other 31 teams on notice that they are in trouble for 2019. And beyond. Now don’t forget to delete this off your browser history. Oh wait. This is the good kind of porn. Disregard. Force of habit. I can’t wait until the next round of these comes out. Cannot wait.
