News coming up with Courtney. By the time we get to it, I am guessing it will be 820 and a reminder that you can leave a voice note for us on any topic on any time.

If you would like your voice to be heard, then leave a hill note for us and we will play the best ones back coming up at about 920 or 930 on a Patriots Friday this morning.

We do that every morning.

By the way, point of clarification, because I can't figure it out.

Shime went back and listened.

He can't figure it out.

I'm getting text messages up to Wazoo on the Subaru of New England text

line about it. Was Robert Spillane saying that defensive players can indeed push or cannot

indeed push? I don't know. I thought I was confused on that. But then I got a text from

somebody very confident, might have been Tom Brady, who said that you can,

defensive players can push other defensive players, you just can't do it on a field goal

attempt or a kickoff or whatever.

So according to Google AI, no, a linebacker cannot legally push a defensive lineman from behind to add momentum.

According to AI overview, NFL Rule 9, Section 2, Article 3B.

Because I would say if it is legal to do it, I would, why wouldn't you as a coach say, when they get in it, push our guys so we can add the same momentum that the quarterback's getting from being pushed?

Yeah.

So that's why I asked the question.

I would think that if you could do it at least one coach would have tried to figure out a way to combat the brotherly shove.

That's why when he said it, he was like, oh, I wish we could do that.

And honestly, if it is somehow legal, if there's one guy that's going to figure it out,

it's going to be Mike Vrable.

He was trying to outsmart Belichick at times.
