Physically, I had the day off. But I got a lot of extra film in, and I got a lot of mental reps in walkthroughs and such. I’ll be ready to go Sunday.

There is always some uncertainty on opening day because they’ve been preparing for us a long time, we’ve been preparing for them a long time. Hopefully we’re doing a lot of things that they’re not working on this week, but that’s kind of the advantage of opening day. And vice versa, there’s an advantage for them. How that all evens out, we’ll see.
This quote really sums up the season opener.

Goodness … better than 75 percent of the games he’s played, he’s won [his career record is 148-43]. There’s not been anybody else in the league since Otto Graham that can say that. He has a pretty high standard, as does [Bill] Belichick, as does Robert Kraft.

Patriots’ Siliga has been a changed man since coming to Foxboro | Sports – Patriots | providencejournal.com | The Providence Journa
Great read on one of the players I’m most excited to see this season. Again, I think Siliga is the heir-apparent to Wilfork as the big bodied space eater inside. Against running teams they’ll probably both be out there, which will be special while it can still happen.
There is a strong belief defensive lineman Dominique Easley will make his debut in the regular-season opener, according to a source.
