Devin McCourty: Edelman a tougher cover than Welker
On who is the tougher cover: Julian Edelman or Wes Welker?
"Julian Edelman. We don't ever root for any Broncos around here."
On who is the better dresser: Edelman or Tom Brady?
“You gotta go with the teacher, because he started it. Tom started it and Julian followed. I’ll give Julian one, he thinks he’s like an actor. He thinks he’s a pretty famous actor.”
On who is the tougher coach: Bill Belichick or Greg Schiano (who coached McCourty at Rutgers)?
“Ooh, Greg Schiano. Toughest coach I’ve ever played for. He’s more of a yeller and a screamer. He’ll get right in your face. Bill’s more sarcastic. Both can be pretty brutal, but I’m gonna go with Coach Schiano."
Finally, on who is the better defensive back of the McCourty brothers:
"I've gotten this question so many times and I don't understand why. It's so easy. You got one guy whose a two-time All-Pro and you got another guy who's just pulling on my pant leg for me to teach him a bunch of things, so I'm gonna have to go with Devin McCourty on that one"
