Tucker: This is the best Patriots offense I've seen

The Patriots faster-than-the-speed-of-sound offense has been a hot topic around New England over the last few days, and it's gaining national notice too.

Ross Tucker of NBC's Sports Talk was on with CSNNE's Bob Neumeier to talk about the offense, and count Tucker as a fan.

"Well I think it's pretty awesome, and it's really interesting to me, Bob, how the last couple of years a lot of the concepts of college have actually come to the NFL. It uses to always be the opposite way, it used to be always that everything would trifle down.

Tucker said the Pats are "not afraid to beg, borrow, and steal from other successful collegiate organizations"

But just how good does Tucker think the Pats offense is? They broke records in 2007 . . . but are they better than that?

"I think this is the best Patriots offense I've ever seen. I know that will give a couple people pause, but they really have everything."

Tucker defends his point by saying that the Pats were a great offense last season and added a "dynamic running game and deep threat in Brandon Lloyd.

Speaking of receiving threats, Wes Welker may have ruffled a few feathers with his joke about Belichick, saying that it's "always nice to stick it in Bill's face" when talking about his production in Sunday's win over the Broncos.

"There's always a little bit of truth to sarcasm," Tucker said.

But he also says that Welker should be on the field as much as possible.

"If the Patriots lose any games when they're not playing Wes Welker pretty much full time I think they're opening themselves up to a tremendous amount of criticism from folks like me."
