from the New England Sports Journal Boston Sports Journal but it's available for everyone in New England and everywhere. New England. Good job, Fred. Yeah, I don't need to... I'm not looking for a New England, I'm just looking for another girl, my friend. It's a scoop and score there, Greg. He just picked it right up and ran at the end zone. That's a Billy Bragg reference. That's true.

So you wrote a great article yesterday, and I'm not aware of the person who you used as your colleague that he was writing also about some observations he had covering the Packers.

But before we get into Martellis's injury and everything like that, first of all, why do you believe that he fell all the way to the Patriots?

Well, a couple different reasons.

You know, number one is, you know, the film, his on-field play has just not been good this year.

I mean, if you've tuned in any Packers game, the Martell's Bennett that we saw

His brother was going through a whole lot of different things with his, you know, arrest

and things like that.

And whatever the reasons were on the field, he was not

producing. He had a lot of drops. He didn't look enthusiastic. He couldn't block. He was just

struggling on a lot of stuff. So I think when teams looked at, should we claim Martellus Bennett,

the first thing you do is turn on the film, and then they probably came away and said, nah, not interested. Well, let's say he's healthy enough to play. Oh, that's the question of this. Is an attitude thing, as far as it being, let's say it's not physical that he can't run and he can't do his routes, and like you said in your article, let's say it's completely mental will coming to
