Brandon Lloyd Adds Rocket Fuel to the Rocket | The Sideline View

This…

Teams know they have to pay special attention to Wes Welker and Rob Gronkowski and they also know that Aaron Hernandez is an impossible matchup for linebackers and, quite frankly, too much for most safeties to handle. With all of this attention being paid to these three players, you had better believe that Tom Brady will find Brandon Lloyd much more frequently than he found Deion Branch. Even if a coordinator goes with a single-high safety to try and help out against Lloyd, he’ll eventually find that Brady is looking the safety off to Lloyd’s side and then picking the defense apart on the opposite side. Brady may have looked wicked smaht last year, but we should see the touchdowns creep into the 40s this year.

Very curious if we’re going to get a look at Jeff Demps tomorrow. Here’s a first glimpse of him…

It’s not about beating somebody in practice; it’s about working with somebody and getting better. We’re not here to try to win a drill or trick Tampa on something. That’s not the point of it; the point is to work on what we want to work on and work on what they’re working on so that we can become better and when we walk off the field we’re a better team than we were when we walked on it.

Man, I’m telling you man, they came out, they’d turn around huddle, snap, oh, ‘There’s the Mike, Go!’ I was like, ‘Dang! Um, Mr. Brady, can we line up?’ He didn’t care. He was like, ‘You’re not going to line up.’ When we turned around one time I checked back around and my hand was going to the grass and they were like, ‘Hut!’ And I said, ‘Noooooooooooo!’

Great stuff here and the perfect illustration of why the Pats are so good. They make the most out of every moment and take every chance to get better very, very seriously.

There were no full practice reports today but from the looks of this picture I’m going to go out on a limb and say “DEEP THREAT!”.

This week’s practices in Tampa should really be beneficial to the Pats for multiple reasons:

  1. Short week will match the same turnaround time for when they have to play the Jets on Thanksgiving.
  2. Facing a different scheme is great experience for dealing with the unfamiliar, making adjustments, etc.
  3. Team bonding time away from home always helps.
  4. Grinding through the hardest week of August in the humidity of Florida should help harden the team.
  5. Getting to hit someone other than their own teammates for a few days helps make things a little more tolerable.
