NE Patriots Draft:
During last week's Monday Night Football game played against the Buffalo Bills the Patriots were flagged with two blatant "roughing the passer" calls. After the game, owner Bob Kraft and Coach Bill Belichick knew they had to do something to avoid these calls in the future.
Belichick felt that the insensitivity didn't end with Vince Wilfork and Adalius Thomas, who were the two guilty parties last Monday. "Pretty soon, all of my defenders are going to want to hit the quarterback. That's not kosher here in the NFL," related the Patriots head coach. Belichick was extremely disappointed in his defenders as they repeatedly showed no respect for QB Trent Edwards' well-being.

Therefore, Coach Belichick brought in some outside help to stamp out the unneeded aggressive behavior in his defenders, and try to help the players show some empathy to the opposing team. Mr. Brown, lead sensitivity trainer, had this to say, "We'll see if this works on Sunday, but these guys really showed some progress in their counseling. I don't think Mark Sanchez has anything to worry about."
Let's hope that's the case, as nobody wants to see football players hitting each other anymore.
