Patriots Lineman Milton Williams Takes Swipe at Broncos' Elite Offense, Says 'No. 1 Line Can Kiss My [Expletive]'
New England Patriots defensive lineman Milton Williams was in the midst of a fiery post-game interview after his team's 10-7 victory over the Denver Broncos on Sunday. In response to questions about the quality of Denver's offense, Williams let loose a string of profanity, implying that the Patriots' defense was the superior unit in the game.
According to MassLive's Mark Daniels, Williams said, "No. 1 offensive line can kiss my [expletive]." The Broncos' offense, which features a highly touted lineup led by quarterback Jarrett Stidham, was held to a mere 181 total yards and just 3.1 yards per play.
The Patriots defense has been the driving force behind their postseason success, stifling high-powered offenses in each of their first three games. Williams' comments suggest that his team's defense is not intimidated by any opponent, regardless of how skilled they may be.
"We've got a lot of guys who have been counted out," Williams said. "Nobody really believed in us or what we can do. They're probably going to say that's just how they played. We didn't do nothing, it's what they did."
The Patriots' defense has allowed an average of just 6.3 points per game this postseason, and their success is largely due to the play of key contributors like Christian Elliss and Marcus Jones.
While Williams' comments may have been somewhat unprofessional, they underscore the confidence and swagger that his team possesses heading into their Super Bowl matchup.
