Jones wasn’t the only member of the defensive line to stand out. Despite not putting much on the stat sheet, newcomer Tommy Kelly also had a solid performance and deserves partial credit for linebacker Brandon Spikes’ first-quarter sack. Upon the snap, Kelly quickly turned to his right and consumed the right guard, which opened up a gap and provided Spikes a clear path to the backfield. After hitting the hole, Spikes blew over running back Doug Martin, who was out of position due to a poorly executed fake handoff, and took down Freeman.

Okay, I can admit Tommy Kelly is really getting me excited. He seems like he could be just the partner inside Vince Wilfork has been missing the last three seasons.

We said this last week, and we’ll reiterate it today: would love to see more of running back Brandon Bolden. He was on the field during the opening drive of Friday’s game and got some carries later in the game as well. He’s typically productive with each touch he receives, showing good bounce to get to the edge, speed and vision. In our estimation, he’s just behind Stevan Ridley as the team’s most natural runner. Perhaps we’ll see more of Bolden as the preseason continues.

I’m with Yates on Bolden, maybe he’s nursing an injury a bit and they’re trying to protect him a bit before throwing him to the wolves.
