1
00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:03,560
Speaker 1: The Patriots Training Camp cast is your source for all

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: the news from Patriots Training Camp. Well, I do still

3
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:09,039
Speaker 1: watch the news. Practice is over, but the writers of

4
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:10,880
Speaker 1: Patriots dot com have you covered?

5
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:13,760
Speaker 2: What did I miss yesterday? Now here to review today's practice.

6
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 1: The writers of Patriots dot.

7
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:19,119
Speaker 2: Com sadly, that's back to just Mike do So and

8
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:22,440
Speaker 2: Paul Parole having too good for us today. Mike, Uh,

9
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 2: day five of training camp, but day one of padded

10
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 2: practice here in Foxborough, and I thought we got a

11
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 2: chance to see some physicality here. A lot of work

12
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 2: on the running game, a lot of work on screens

13
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 2: and some of the timing stuff with the with the

14
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 2: blocking combinations. You know, we'll we'll get into some of

15
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 2: the uh fallout from that a little bit later, but

16
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,200
Speaker 2: you're overall first impressions of the first day in PATS.

17
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just another instance of you always want one more.

18
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: You know, you get the first day of of of

19
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 1: mini camp and OTAs and you want to get the

20
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:55,960
Speaker 1: training camp and you get in training camp and I

21
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: just want to get pads, and you get pads on

22
00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 1: like today and you're like, but I want to really

23
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 1: physical practice. So I mean, I feel like they eased

24
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 1: into it a little bit. It wasn't I felt like

25
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 1: this overwhelming physicality pack throughout. But that's probably smart and

26
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 1: I think as you as you hinted at. Unfortunately, Cole

27
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 1: Strange left practice and spent plenty of time in the

28
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: athletic training section of the Yates of Hell. Did not

29
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,680
Speaker 1: return to practice. He was one of a few guys

30
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 1: that walked over there, so certainly the most significant and

31
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,919
Speaker 1: anytime the pats come on, you're a little bit wary

32
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 1: about about these injuries are going to happen. So hopefully

33
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 1: he's not gone too long. It was a good sign

34
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,759
Speaker 1: he walked back out to practice, was watching, wasn't carted off,

35
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 1: wasn't didn't disappear, so hopefully his prognosis.

36
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 2: So just to continue with the book keeping time. Montgomery

37
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 2: missed his third practice in a row, so not a

38
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 2: good sign for him. We also were did not see

39
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 2: Jake Andrews for the second straight day, and we'll add

40
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 2: terres Hall to the mix. But rookie Kaishan Booty was

41
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 2: back out there, had a couple of catches, had a

42
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 2: couple of plays.

43
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 1: Here and there.

44
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 2: I would say it was probably was most noticeable that

45
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 2: really of camp so far. I want to bring up

46
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 2: the terres Hall thing. I thought Evan brought up a

47
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 2: good point during the Unfiltered broadcast that we had live

48
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 2: just sort of one of those random guys that's missing

49
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 2: a practice out of nowhere. No word on whether or

50
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 2: not they added anybody to the roster Ezekiel Elliott or

51
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 2: anyone else. But sometimes when you see those kinds of things,

52
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 2: you put two and two together and wonder if they

53
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 2: were making a roster spot. So we'll keep an eye

54
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,679
Speaker 2: out for terres Hall. Yeah, later and we'll see there's

55
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 2: any news to come out of that.

56
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 1: Well. It was I mean, yeah, it was on display

57
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 1: Paul with ramondra Stevenson kind of doing conditioning work today

58
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: along with Matthew Judon and Trent Brown as well. So

59
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: three big names, but you know, with Romandre down in

60
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 1: the lower field, you were down to really three backs

61
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: with Pierre Strong, Kevin Harris and JJ Taylor. Yeah, and

62
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 1: a little bit of an audition for those guys, yeah,

63
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: I mean, that's an opportunity for them. Something we brought

64
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 1: up on the show was just you know, do you

65
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: bring a guy in or do you kind of let

66
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 1: this marinate for a second and give Strong and Harris

67
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 1: the opportunity to get a bunch of carries here, especially

68
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: as the Pats came on. So you know, it was

69
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 1: it was pretty good. I don't want to say Strong

70
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 1: both moment.

71
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 2: Both popped a little bit. Now, it wasn't perfect. I thought,

72
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 2: you know, toward the end of practice they had some

73
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 2: goal line runs. I thought Strong in particular, made a

74
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 2: really nice jump, cut in a hole and got himself free.

75
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 2: I don't think you would have made it into the

76
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,519
Speaker 2: end zone. I think he started about the eight yard

77
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 2: line but picked up some yards. I thought Harris had

78
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 2: a couple of tough runs down by the goal and

79
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 2: we saw a little of that, yep, last season in

80
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 2: his very limited work that he was a tough goal

81
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 2: line guy. Ball security gonna be important for those guys

82
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 2: if they want to be getting the ball. The hands

83
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 2: in the ball a handful of times you certainly can't

84
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 2: put it on the ground, So we'll keep an eye

85
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 2: out on that. But I did think it was a

86
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 2: good start for those guys and the lineman on both sides.

87
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 2: You talked about Trent Brown, Mike, we saw a lot

88
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 2: of different guys, you know, you see Riley Reef and

89
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 2: Connor McDermott. I know Evan was talking a lot about

90
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 2: McDermott during the broadcast. Then you had when Cole Strange

91
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 2: goes out, you have Atonio Maffi getting a lot of

92
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 2: reps at left guard, So hats off to those guys.

93
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 2: I didn't see any real breakdowns, you know, there was

94
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 2: a lot of mixing matching. Really interesting the goal line.

95
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 2: You saw Andrew Stuber come in as an extra guy.

96
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 2: A little unbalanced look they had a full back, yeah,

97
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 2: you know at times on the field, so I thought

98
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 2: you saw some different things in some different play designs

99
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 2: as well.

100
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of motion and you know a lot

101
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 1: of swing passes that they were working on too. So

102
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 1: it's just, you know, it wasn't really the most dynamic

103
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,599
Speaker 1: day in terms of the pure passing offense MAC to

104
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: wide receivers. Not a lot of that today, a lot

105
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 1: of you know, hitting guys low. Maybe that's by design,

106
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: but you know, I would just say generally it continues

107
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 1: to kind of be a work in progress on offense.

108
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 1: As much as I like the design, and it seems

109
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 1: like they're coordinated and you know, there's a lot of

110
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: motion and things going on that I think are really

111
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: nice and are going to help them get into good position.

112
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: But again, so far, not a lot of huge, dynamic

113
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 1: offensive playmakes kind of more about pads, physicality, running and

114
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: all that.

115
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 2: It looked like the passing game today that they did

116
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 2: was all predicated on the run. Yeah, you know, run

117
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 2: the ball a couple of times. We're gonna set something

118
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 2: up with play action to look if we can leak

119
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,719
Speaker 2: a guy in the flat uncovered. At times I thought

120
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 2: it worked. At other times it looked like the defense

121
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 2: was a step ahead. Yeah, but yeah, I thought it.

122
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 2: You put it right. There was nothing really down for

123
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 2: very few downfield shots. I did think there was one

124
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 2: such attempt that Zappi missed. I think it was Zappi

125
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:23,159
Speaker 2: overthrew Douglas one. Douglas had a step on Marcus Jones,

126
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 2: probably about a twenty yard crosser. He looked like he

127
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 2: was he was ahead of the coverage there. But not

128
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 2: a lot of those kinds of opportunities today, And I

129
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 2: thought an overall a pretty physical practice for the guys

130
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 2: up front, a good way to get their feet. Wet

131
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:43,679
Speaker 2: Bill brought everybody in. I would say about twenty past eleven,

132
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,280
Speaker 2: maybe there was probably about another I don't know, half

133
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 2: hour left of practice at that point. Sort of had

134
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,160
Speaker 2: a message to the team a little less than a

135
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 2: half hour. I'm not exactly sure what it was. He's

136
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 2: meeting with the team again right now as they're getting

137
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 2: ready to go off the field, so maybe just sort

138
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 2: of stressing the fundamentals of taking care of the body,

139
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,679
Speaker 2: you know, the physicality is ramping up and being ready

140
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 2: for this next stretch.

141
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, taking care of each other too. I mean that

142
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 1: was another thing we're speculating. You know, before you get

143
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: kind of into goal line, let's make sure, you know,

144
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 1: tempers don't get out of control. I know there's been

145
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 1: some as always fights around the league that are going off,

146
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 1: so they've avoided that stuff so far. So, you know,

147
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,279
Speaker 1: a solid day as far as the running game, offensively,

148
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 1: getting things in order, and you know, we'll see tomorrow,

149
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:26,719
Speaker 1: maybe we'll get some more one on ones. That'd be

150
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: the I think what everybody really excited to watch, receiver, cornerback,

151
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: full field, you know, really get a sense. I mean

152
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 1: it's really hard for the cornerbacks and those drills, but

153
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,480
Speaker 1: I think it's always just fun for us to watch.

154
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, we're going to be back, just to

155
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 2: let everybody know, be a little bit later.

156
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: Tomorrow.

157
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 2: Practice is at twelve thirty, so Mike and I will

158

163
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,080

165
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 2: Sunday through Friday, so six days in a row, which

166
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 2: is a rare stretch certainly in recent years. I'm looking

167
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 2: forward to seeing if it sticks with that and then

168
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 2: sort of how the team responds to it.

169
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, two days in a row down, and of course

170
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,960
