Well, I do still watch the news. 4 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,360 Speaker 1: Practice is over, but the writers of Patriots dot com 5 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:22,680 Speaker 1: have you covered what I miss yesterday? Now here to 6 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:27,160 Speaker 1: review today's practice the writers of Patriots dot com. All right, 7 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: we're coming to you live from the side of Gillette Stadium, 8 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,000 Speaker 1: where we just wrapped up the Patriots and Panthers first 9 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 1: joint practice of the summer. This is Mike Dousou joined 10 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,840 Speaker 1: by Paul prlo Evmosar Patriots dot Com. Here for another 11 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,159 Speaker 1: training camp cast. Get you caught up on this practice 12 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 1: and today, guys, tempers ran a little hot, but I 13 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 1: think we saw some good things out of the Patriots 14 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,560 Speaker 1: offense a little bit, just a little bit of consistency. 15 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: Maybe not so much in the run game, but overall, Paul, 16 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 1: I felt like it was a pretty good day for 17 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 1: the Pats. Yeah, I thought I was most impressed with 18 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 1: the defense too. You know, we keep talking about you 19 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: know the defense looks good. Is that because the Patriots 20 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: offense is struggling? Well, I thought the defense today looked 21 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 1: just like it does in most other training camp practices. 22 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: I thought they had pretty good coverage. I thought the 23 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,919 Speaker 1: defensive line in particular really controlled most of the eleven 24 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 1: on eleven play. I thought they had a lot of 25 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 1: pressure on both Bigger Mayfield and Sam Arnold. I thought 26 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 1: the defense was really solid and evan. For you from 27 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: the offense, what it stood out to you today, seemed 28 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 1: like a pretty good day for Mac and made some 29 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 1: nice connection, especially the DeVante Parker. This to me was 30 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 1: the most in rhythm the passing game has looked. It 31 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: wasn't always the most successful yet, especially on the ground, 32 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 1: I would say, but in terms of the passing offense, 33 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 1: I thought Mac looked the best, throwing the ball down 34 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 1: the field on time, in rhythm, hitting guys in the hands. 35 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: A couple of good deep completions to DeVante Parker early on. 36 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 1: They opened up with the play action period and he 37 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: was hitting guys Jacoby Myers on a cross or in 38 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: cut to Taekwon Thornton that fade down the sideline to 39 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: DeVante Parker again, got that twice in this practice. A 40 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: nice corner out to Jacoby as well later on. So 41 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: a more aggressive, more successful Mac Jones pushing the football 42 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: down the field more in this practice than I think 43 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: any other practice that we've seen all summer long. I 44 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,959 Speaker 1: know Paul might disagree with me a little bit on 45 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 1: being so bullish on the passing offense, but I thought 46 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: in general this was as in rhythm, as in sync 47 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 1: as Mac Jones as looked all summer. Yeah, I think 48 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: a couple of days of it. I mean, even yesterday's reduced, 49 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: you know, sessions seemed a little bit of that. Still 50 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: didn't love what I saw out of the running game. 51 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: Weren't a lot of holes being opened up. Thought maybe, 52 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 1: you know, the Patriots would have an option, an opportunity 53 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: to do that. But however, we're seeing now as the 54 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: fans are getting ready for autographs. But we did see 55 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,359 Speaker 1: some couple a couple of skirmishes, some people thrown out 56 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 1: Christian Wilkerson, Kendrick Bourne, later James Ferns among the Patriots. 57 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 1: I guess not totally surprising to see the tempers boil over. Paul, 58 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: you've been doing these joint practices. Not an uncommon occurrence 59 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 1: to see some of that. Yeah, I mean we've seen 60 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: it periodically. I thought today was a little bit more 61 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 1: like extended. You know, Chicago was probably the worst one 62 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: I've seen in terms of an actual incident, but this one, 63 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: it started, it boiled over, it continued. Then a couple 64 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: of plays later there was another one, and a couple 65 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: of plays after that there was another one. I thought 66 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,640 Speaker 1: there were several opportunities that the coaches had to bring 67 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: their teams together sort of, you know, calm it down. 68 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 1: It didn't really seem like that that worked, and it 69 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: wasn't until the very end, the last couple of team 70 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 1: periods where it seemed like they settled down and just 71 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 1: and just went and played football. But you know, the 72 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: players and coaches talked at length yesterday about, you know, 73 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 1: the desire to see somebody different in the competitive juice flowing. 74 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: We saw her a little of that today, and that's 75 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 1: what I was most encouraged about, you know, for both 76 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: on both sides of the ball for the Patriots. Yeah. 77 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: I do think the Patriots clearly had the better of 78 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: play today, both offensively and defensively. I don't think there's 79 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: any question about it. So much to look at, and 80 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: at one point there's six different group drills going on. 81 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: You don't know where to look any any last thoughts 82 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: here to take away from this practice before we take 83 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: a look at tomorrow's joint session. Yeah, it is. Looking 84 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 1: at my notes now about pressures, run stops, tackles for 85 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: loss for the Patriots defense. I had quite a few 86 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 1: of just across the board in eleven on elevens. Matthew 87 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: Judon in the backfield a bunch. I thought, Devon Gotshaw 88 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: continues to be strong in the middle. Dietrich wise had 89 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: a few pressures, and then they started bringing some of 90 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: those safety blitzes and a little bit more exotic looks 91 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: as well and getting some pressure with those. It looked 92 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,799 Speaker 1: like that matchup last year in Week nine against Carolina 93 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 1: where the Patriots just absolutely dominated the Panthers up front 94 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 1: and held them to six points. This had a very 95 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 1: similar feel. And if you're Carolina, you're a Panthers beat 96 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: reporter us, but Carolina version of it. You come away 97 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: from this practice just I don't know what you get 98 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: from this quarterback competition right now, because neither Baker Mayfield 99 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: nor Sam Darnold practice particularly well. It looks like Baker 100 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: is high on all of his throws. It looks like 101 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold is still seeing ghost set times always thrown. 102 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: So it's not a good comment, but It does put 103 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: in perspective We've been harsh and rightfully so for some 104 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: of these practices the Patriots offense, Mac Jones, how he's 105 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: looked this summer. Mac looked like the best quarterback on 106 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: the field by far out here today. Compare it to 107 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: the two starters whatever you want to call them in Carolina. 108 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: I know there's not the two best quarterbacks in the 109 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: league or anything like that, but I think it does 110 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 1: put some perspective on where the Patriots are and where 111 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 1: Mac is that he definitely outperformed two guys that are 112 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,719 Speaker 1: clearly struggling in Carolina. Well, one day of joint practice 113 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 1: is down, a couple more to go this week we'll 114 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 1: have tomorrow. We will be back on Patriots Unfiltered, So 115 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 1: if you can't make it down here, it was a 116 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: great crowd today, lots of people down here enjoying this. 117 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 1: We will be live starting nine fifteen tomorrow on Patriots 118 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: dot com. So we got you covered with all of that. 119 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: So it should be another interesting day. See how the 120 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 1: temperature is tomorrow in terms of the tempers and if 121 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 1: they're able to settle in. But a good day of 122 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 1: work and I'm sure productive is the coaching staff is 123 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: able to get a look at the film. So that'll 124 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 1: do it for this edition of the camp Cast. We 125 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: will catch you tomorrow.
