Don't count on any trash talk emerging from the New England Patriots locker room this week -- or, really, any week.

As for the Denver Broncos locker room?

Guess this one qualifies.

Asked Monday if Tom Brady was a "crybaby," Broncos defensive lineman Antonio Smith told The Colorado Springs Gazette, "that would be an accurate statement."

"I've never seen any quarterback look to the referee right after he gets sacked more than Brady," Smith said, via Gazette.com. "Every time he gets sacked he looks at the ref like, 'You see him sack me? Was that supposed to happen? He did it a little hard. Please throw a 15-yard penalty on him. Get him fined.'"

Smith added, though, that Brady won't rattle "just because you hit him hard."

"I've tried over the years," Smith told The Gazette. "That's what D-linemen think: 'The harder you hit the quarterback, the better it will make it on the secondary...With Brady, he's a great competitor. You know it's coming. He's going to cry about getting hit, but he's going to take the hit and keep going."

Denver's only chance Sunday is to get after Brady early and often. If the pass rush is negated and Brady can spread the ball around to Rob Gronkowski, Julian Edelman, Danny Amendola and James White, it's hard to envision the Broncos winning.
