WEBVTT - Training Camp-Cast 8/9: Offense Makes Strides, Day 11 Recap

0:00:02.080 --> 0:00:09.559
<v Speaker 1>This is the Patriots Training Camp Cast. The Patriots Training

0:00:09.600 --> 0:00:11.760
<v Speaker 1>Camp Cast is your source for all the news from

0:00:11.800 --> 0:00:14.960
<v Speaker 1>Patriots Training Camp. Well, I do still watch the news.

0:00:15.040 --> 0:00:17.800
<v Speaker 1>Practice is over, but the writers of Patriots dot com

0:00:17.840 --> 0:00:20.159
<v Speaker 1>have you covered what I miss yesterday? Now here to

0:00:20.200 --> 0:00:24.480
<v Speaker 1>review today's practice. The writers of Patriots dot com, Well,

0:00:24.480 --> 0:00:27.440
<v Speaker 1>we are up to eleven practices in the books, and

0:00:27.520 --> 0:00:30.280
<v Speaker 1>I think this might be one that everyone was waiting for,

0:00:30.400 --> 0:00:33.200
<v Speaker 1>maybe just a little bit some strides on offense. Excited

0:00:33.240 --> 0:00:35.520
<v Speaker 1>to tell you about it. Here Mike do So, Evan Lazar,

0:00:35.600 --> 0:00:38.920
<v Speaker 1>Paul Parolo, Patriots dot Com back with another camp cast

0:00:39.040 --> 0:00:41.519
<v Speaker 1>here for Tuesday, as we're getting ready for the New

0:00:41.600 --> 0:00:45.320
<v Speaker 1>York Giants coming into town Thursday. And guys, a little

0:00:45.320 --> 0:00:47.120
<v Speaker 1>bit of progress today. It felt like things kind of

0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:49.360
<v Speaker 1>started to look a little bit more like we're used

0:00:49.360 --> 0:00:52.000
<v Speaker 1>to in the running games. Some open holes, some open lanes,

0:00:52.120 --> 0:00:55.240
<v Speaker 1>couple nice carries, maybe not you know, dominant passing performance

0:00:55.240 --> 0:00:57.040
<v Speaker 1>that we might have been hoping for. But overall, it

0:00:57.120 --> 0:00:59.680
<v Speaker 1>felt like the offense looked a little bit better today,

0:01:00.000 --> 0:01:02.200
<v Speaker 1>you think, PAULI I would agree. I thought there was

0:01:02.680 --> 0:01:04.880
<v Speaker 1>a little bit more rhythm and I thought it really

0:01:04.920 --> 0:01:06.960
<v Speaker 1>showed you know this is going to be kind of

0:01:07.000 --> 0:01:08.920
<v Speaker 1>funny coming from me, But in the running game, which

0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:11.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't normally care for, I thought there was some

0:01:11.800 --> 0:01:15.680
<v Speaker 1>creases there. I thought, particularly Romandre Stevenson. I thought shot

0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:18.360
<v Speaker 1>through a couple of gaps. Late. I thought Tie Montgomer

0:01:18.480 --> 0:01:21.040
<v Speaker 1>he had one. They're still working on a lot of

0:01:21.200 --> 0:01:23.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, different situational stuff, so it's hard to tell,

0:01:23.959 --> 0:01:25.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, if they caught him and maybe in some

0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:29.800
<v Speaker 1>third down personnel but whatever. But I thought, no, Isaiah Win,

0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:32.199
<v Speaker 1>we saw Yadney could just out there at right tackle,

0:01:32.240 --> 0:01:34.360
<v Speaker 1>and I thought things were a little bit better. Yeah,

0:01:34.400 --> 0:01:37.400
<v Speaker 1>Yannika just got good feet. Right's athletic guy. He can

0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:39.920
<v Speaker 1>get out in space, he can move at his position.

0:01:40.240 --> 0:01:43.720
<v Speaker 1>You mentioned the two form Andre, the second one in particular,

0:01:44.080 --> 0:01:46.560
<v Speaker 1>when he hit it and kind of cut it back inside,

0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:49.360
<v Speaker 1>I was like, that's outside zone. Like, that's what that's

0:01:49.360 --> 0:01:51.160
<v Speaker 1>supposed to look like when you put it on the

0:01:51.320 --> 0:01:54.000
<v Speaker 1>on the teach tape right there, that's what it's supposed

0:01:54.040 --> 0:01:57.720
<v Speaker 1>to look like. That was probably the smoothest looking outside

0:01:57.800 --> 0:02:00.200
<v Speaker 1>zone run play that we've seen the Patriots aft through

0:02:00.360 --> 0:02:02.120
<v Speaker 1>two and a half weeks of training camp. So that

0:02:02.240 --> 0:02:04.880
<v Speaker 1>was good to see Cole Strange also making a nice

0:02:04.920 --> 0:02:06.760
<v Speaker 1>reach block on the line of scrimmage to make that

0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:09.880
<v Speaker 1>happen initially for Mondre Stevenson, which is a good sign

0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:12.240
<v Speaker 1>that the rookie starting to make some plays. And I thought,

0:02:12.240 --> 0:02:18.400
<v Speaker 1>overall today just cleaner, crisper, cleaner, more what you expect

0:02:18.480 --> 0:02:20.520
<v Speaker 1>when you come out to see the Patriots practice. Well

0:02:20.520 --> 0:02:22.040
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't all clean though. There was a little bit

0:02:22.080 --> 0:02:25.400
<v Speaker 1>of a fight brewing there with David Andrews Christian Barmore

0:02:25.440 --> 0:02:28.560
<v Speaker 1>both thrown out of course. Yesterday David Andrews Rallied the

0:02:28.560 --> 0:02:30.840
<v Speaker 1>troops after practice, gave them a little talking to, came

0:02:30.919 --> 0:02:33.239
<v Speaker 1>up in his press availability, and you know, you could

0:02:33.240 --> 0:02:35.440
<v Speaker 1>tell the frustration was was boiling over a little bit.

0:02:35.440 --> 0:02:38.639
<v Speaker 1>He carried that energy over today. What do you guys

0:02:38.720 --> 0:02:40.520
<v Speaker 1>think of you know, Andrews and bringing a little bit

0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:42.600
<v Speaker 1>of fire to the offense, probably something they needed. I

0:02:42.680 --> 0:02:45.080
<v Speaker 1>liked it, And you know, it does go back to

0:02:45.160 --> 0:02:48.400
<v Speaker 1>Monday and the way practice ended in Monday may have

0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:52.800
<v Speaker 1>been the worst day overall offensively that we've seen. And

0:02:53.000 --> 0:02:55.800
<v Speaker 1>I think some of the frustration was spilling over with Andrews.

0:02:55.800 --> 0:02:58.560
<v Speaker 1>He talked to the guys after the practice and then

0:02:58.840 --> 0:03:02.120
<v Speaker 1>she spoke to us, you know, like this, it's got

0:03:02.120 --> 0:03:04.440
<v Speaker 1>to get better, you know, in no uncertain terms. And

0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:08.760
<v Speaker 1>I thought he came out today with I don't want

0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:10.760
<v Speaker 1>to say that like more effort, because I don't think

0:03:10.800 --> 0:03:12.520
<v Speaker 1>there was an effort problem. I don't think there's been

0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:14.280
<v Speaker 1>an effort problem. But I think there was a little

0:03:14.320 --> 0:03:17.360
<v Speaker 1>bit more intensity, uh, certainly on offense than we've seen.

0:03:17.480 --> 0:03:20.920
<v Speaker 1>We didn't see those breakdowns that we've seen from the

0:03:20.960 --> 0:03:24.240
<v Speaker 1>offensive line. There were no runaway rushers that have been

0:03:24.240 --> 0:03:26.840
<v Speaker 1>a big problem, and I think Andrews was part of that.

0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:31.480
<v Speaker 1>They did some pass protection pass rush work earlier in

0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:34.040
<v Speaker 1>practice that sort of ended a little bit with a

0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:36.640
<v Speaker 1>skirmission that I think Andrews was in the middle of,

0:03:37.000 --> 0:03:38.880
<v Speaker 1>and then you know, he and Barb. I think Barmore

0:03:38.960 --> 0:03:41.480
<v Speaker 1>was a little close to Mac on one of those

0:03:41.520 --> 0:03:44.440
<v Speaker 1>reps and you know, don't touch Mac, don't touch Mac,

0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:47.800
<v Speaker 1>don't touch the Mac. And I think Andrews I think

0:03:47.840 --> 0:03:50.160
<v Speaker 1>showed good leadership there. And I mean I kind of

0:03:50.160 --> 0:03:52.440
<v Speaker 1>liked it. I liked it. I loved it. I think

0:03:52.440 --> 0:03:55.080
<v Speaker 1>this is exactly what you love so much about David

0:03:55.160 --> 0:03:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Andrews is that he brings that edge and that leadership

0:03:58.040 --> 0:04:02.200
<v Speaker 1>quality to the table, and it was clear that they

0:04:02.280 --> 0:04:04.960
<v Speaker 1>really needed to set the tone and have a little

0:04:04.960 --> 0:04:07.880
<v Speaker 1>bit of a different attitude up front. You know, eleven

0:04:08.000 --> 0:04:10.480
<v Speaker 1>ten practices or whatever. It's been getting pushed around a

0:04:10.520 --> 0:04:12.400
<v Speaker 1>little bit by the defensive front and to see them

0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:14.360
<v Speaker 1>kind of stand up to them a little bit today

0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:16.440
<v Speaker 1>and say no, today is going to be a good

0:04:16.520 --> 0:04:19.800
<v Speaker 1>day for us and not the way it's been so far.

0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:22.479
<v Speaker 1>That that was David Andrews. I think it was the

0:04:22.520 --> 0:04:24.680
<v Speaker 1>one that really came out and set that tone. Yeah,

0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:26.600
<v Speaker 1>a couple of you know, just little personnel notes. And know,

0:04:26.680 --> 0:04:28.599
<v Speaker 1>yesterday we talked about Marcus Jones getting a little bit

0:04:28.640 --> 0:04:30.080
<v Speaker 1>of run in the slot. I think I think you

0:04:30.080 --> 0:04:31.920
<v Speaker 1>asked Evan, didn't you ask Bill about that? Today? And

0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:34.800
<v Speaker 1>it seemed like they continue to rotate. It seemed like

0:04:34.800 --> 0:04:36.600
<v Speaker 1>Miles Bryan getting a little bit of shot. But still

0:04:36.600 --> 0:04:38.560
<v Speaker 1>I think, you know a good sign for Marcus Jones.

0:04:38.640 --> 0:04:41.000
<v Speaker 1>Jonathan Jones continues to be on the outside, so it

0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:43.200
<v Speaker 1>seems like they're trying to find something there. Maybe you're

0:04:43.240 --> 0:04:45.360
<v Speaker 1>still kind of experimenting a little bit. Maybe I think

0:04:45.400 --> 0:04:47.560
<v Speaker 1>a lot of the offenses that you look at, especially

0:04:47.640 --> 0:04:50.960
<v Speaker 1>in the division with Miami and even Buffalo to a degree,

0:04:51.040 --> 0:04:53.400
<v Speaker 1>but the Jets as well. There's not a ton of

0:04:54.279 --> 0:04:57.000
<v Speaker 1>size anymore at the wide receiver position. There's a lot

0:04:57.080 --> 0:04:59.800
<v Speaker 1>of everybody wants separation, right, That's what everybody wants at

0:04:59.800 --> 0:05:04.320
<v Speaker 1>the receiver position as speed, separation, route running ability. So

0:05:05.000 --> 0:05:07.440
<v Speaker 1>we've seen it a few times in practice that DeVante

0:05:07.520 --> 0:05:09.960
<v Speaker 1>Parker has gotten matched up on Jonathan Jones and Max's

0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:12.720
<v Speaker 1>just kind of thrown a pop up in DeVante Parker's

0:05:12.760 --> 0:05:14.840
<v Speaker 1>direction and he's been able to go and win that

0:05:15.000 --> 0:05:17.200
<v Speaker 1>hYP mismatch. But how often are you really going to

0:05:17.279 --> 0:05:21.520
<v Speaker 1>see that sort of mismatch across the NFL nowadays where

0:05:21.560 --> 0:05:24.520
<v Speaker 1>all of it is about technicians and athletes and explosive

0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:26.640
<v Speaker 1>players and things like that. So at the end of

0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:29.080
<v Speaker 1>the day, maybe you can get Jaylen Mills onto that

0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:31.360
<v Speaker 1>matchup or something like that and make sure you're a

0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:34.080
<v Speaker 1>little bit more careful. But who Jonathan Jones is lined

0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:36.680
<v Speaker 1>up across from. But more speed on the field is

0:05:37.240 --> 0:05:40.400
<v Speaker 1>a good thing. That's what they need. Absolutely couldn't agree more.

0:05:40.400 --> 0:05:42.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean, those kinds of plays with park are great,

0:05:42.920 --> 0:05:46.080
<v Speaker 1>and it's a nice it's nice to have another element,

0:05:46.279 --> 0:05:47.839
<v Speaker 1>But that's not what you want to rely on. You

0:05:47.839 --> 0:05:50.360
<v Speaker 1>want to have some guys that you know can win

0:05:50.440 --> 0:05:52.800
<v Speaker 1>some matchups and move the ball a little bit more

0:05:52.800 --> 0:05:55.640
<v Speaker 1>conventionally too. Well. Taekwon Thorne continues to look pretty good

0:05:55.640 --> 0:05:58.200
<v Speaker 1>out there as well. That'll do it for us today

0:05:58.320 --> 0:06:01.600
<v Speaker 1>here on the Campcast. Of course, Patriots first preseason game

0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:03.680
<v Speaker 1>coming up against the Giants on Thursday night here at

0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:06.680
<v Speaker 1>Gillette Stadium. We will be here for the Patriots pregame

0:06:06.720 --> 0:06:09.240
<v Speaker 1>show starting at four thirty, so tune in for that,

0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:11.640
<v Speaker 1>and then we're not sure exactly what the weekend schedule is,

0:06:11.680 --> 0:06:14.159
<v Speaker 1>like maybe Sunday Monday. There might be another practice prior

0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:17.880
<v Speaker 1>to joint practices kicking in next week against the Carolina Panthers,

0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:20.200
<v Speaker 1>which should be very telling, very excited to see that,

0:06:20.279 --> 0:06:22.920
<v Speaker 1>see them go against another team and get some reps

0:06:22.960 --> 0:06:26.799
<v Speaker 1>against some opposition that is not the Patriots. So until

0:06:26.880 --> 0:06:29.800
<v Speaker 1>then next week, we'll catch you on the next Training Campcast.
