This week on The Gridiron and Beyond, the voice of the New England Patriots, Bob Socci talks with longtime NFL offensive line coach Paul Alexander (@CoachPaulAlex) and author of the book, "Perform."

Paul just returned from a series of clinics in Europe and tells us why there may be plenty of future college and pro prospects following in the footsteps of former and current Patriots, Sebastian Vollmer and Jakob Johnson.

He also shares his high opinion of Dante Scarnecchia as a coach and even higher opinion of him as a person, before explaining what makes the Pats' pass-blocking scheme different from most and expounding on why they're experiencing their recent difficulty protecting Tom Brady.
