Scott: Brady was ‘fidgeting’ in pocket 01.16.11 at 9:23 pm ET
By

FOXBORO — Jets linebacker Bart Scott met with the media following his team’s 28-21 win over the Patriots. Scott was asked when he knew that the Jets were in the head of Tom Brady on Sunday.

“When he started looking for the rush when there was no rush,” said Scott. “When he thought after a certain amount of time, he was fidgeting. I give Ben Roethlisberger a lot of credit, he’s man enough to stay in the pocket, look in the barrel of the gun and take the hit. Most quarterbacks don’t like getting hit. When they get hit, they turn into a totally different person.”

Scott had lectured the media earlier in the week about the difference between the regular season and the playoffs, and he hammered that point again Sunday night in the locker room.

“We were given virtually no chance, but we knew that his [Brady] TD/INT ratio was high in the last four, five playoff games,” said Scott. “Some of the guys that came in last year were part of an ass-kicking by the Baltimore Ravens. We knew that we could perform and not be over-hyped. We can handle the emotion.

“They aren’t a vertical offense. We didn’t fear any of them deep, we knew they couldn’t get deep. We knew that they are small guys. People talk about how that’s a disadvantage to us, how about being a big, physical defense being an advantage for us? Those guys started wearing down on defense and offense.”

Scott was asked if this win meant that Rex Ryan could now be looked at as an equal of Bill Belichick’s as a coach.

“Why not better? Belichick is one Mo Lewis hit from being fired,” Scott said. “[Brady] don’t come in we might be talking about him on the unemployment line.”

    Kirk, excellent catch on “Scotts sense of a nervous T.Brady..
    To Add to your read, i would like to offer what caused this.

    Simple,
    The Benching of Wes Welker,
    This is not something you do to
    one that has given such Fire power
    to your QB and The team.
    Yes , Rex won this Match with Bill.

  • MO

    no ricky c, that is not the cause of the demise of the Pats, they were plain and simply out-played by the Jets.

  • Yankees Fan

    The Pats appeared to be more nervous than the Jets. Brady was ducking the first moment he saw Green from the corner of his eye. The Pats will not have this good of a season unless they get a few more weapons on offense.

  • GO PATS

    @yankee fan and we need a pass rusher and an LT

  • grammag

    wow-ricky c-thought I was the only one who caught this-Wes must have felt like he was in kindergarten-think it set the pace for the game-obviously not a good one-Bill B preaches that his conversations are private and 1 on 1 but he publicly humiliated Wes Welker for b—s—why??

  • WTF

    I actually agreed with the BB move to bench Welker. He showed that public trash talking/humiliation will NOT be tolerated in New England while Rexy lets his dogs run wild. The Jets came to play, and the Patriots did not – bottom line.

  • jets blow

    this loudmouth bart scott if the new enemy around here,i never even heard of him before last nights game..the patriots looked rusty as hell especially in the first half and then in the second half there was no sense of urgency when trailing..they wasted half of a quarter and walked away with ZERO points…are offensive line has to get better next year protecting brady..awful play calling in the second half..belichik blew this game for sure..best record in the nfl and we lose in our own house to the ny effin jets!

  • Shumble

    Fans overreact way too much on an important loss, but to start picking apart all the faults with this 14-2 team (14-3, I suppose) is just too human to do. The Patriots offense is not the problem here, and they do not need more help on offense.

    They were playing with the youngest defense in the league. The Jets barely moved the ball the entire game. The only difference was that our defense allowed touchdowns and their defense only gave up field goals. People seem to be forgetting that at the start of the 4th quarter, the Patriots were only losing by 3 points.

    This is after all the sacks, the pressure, the bad field position, the unexplicable fake punt call, etc. The Patriots had a shot to win the game. The offense had the ball 10 minutes more than the Jets. Outgained the Jets in yardage.

    There were two big plays in the first half which sealed the Patriots fate (although, they still had a chance going into the 4th):
    1. The interception by Brady that nullified what seemed to be a promising opening drive.
    2. The dropped touchdown pass by Crumpler in the 1st quarter.
    3. The fake punt on the Patriots 38 with 1 minute to go in the half ????

    People who think that Sanchez is the second coming of Bradshaw or Montana are crazy. Sanchez had 5 good throws in the entire game. The Jets barely advanced the ball the entire game. Yes, their defense played great, but their offense wasn’t much better than the 45-3 blowout.

  • pete

    all week long only thing i heard from you guys was the pats will destroy the jets the jets have no hope etc etc
    well now that the pats are the laughing stock of the nfl how you guys feel?
    pats are nothing they are a joke
    Brady is the most most overrated player in sports history the dude chokes in big spots like the super ball three years ago
    so you guys upthere need to start calling all the new york teams your daddy and take it like a man

  • Peter Hamilton

    Benching Walker for the first series, YET allowing him to be the first Pat to touch the ball on offense for a kickoff return? What kind of a mixed message is that…..?

  • Craig

    To be honest, I’m wondering if welker will be a patriot next year. That was humiliating. As far as brady over rated, I’ll take him every time. All the haters blame the SB loss on him when it was the def that allowed that win. He had a bad game last nite because the jets def was different then pats expected, he was sacked 5 times, and the jets out hustled, out played, and wanted the game more than the pats. The jets deserved this win, and most of the players are class guys but But t Scutt is a sc umbag

  • pete

    B A R T bart bart bart

  • joe

    Yeah Pete Jets played a good game, but the Patriots shot themselves in the foot. Lets see dropped TD pass, blown fake punt(ouch). The interception should have let us know,it wasn’t gonna be our day. But we still have the Bruins and Celtics…lol. Rangers and Knicks…lol…forget about it.Oh did I forget to mention the Red Sox will have a better yeah than the Yankees.
