Tuesday Patriots Practice Tweets of Note
The pads are back on after the team was off from practice yesterday and it sounds like the intensity is starting to pick up. Edelman is having a strong camp, clearly picking up where he left off last year. Nice to see Brandon LaFell make a nice play today after getting off to a slow start last week.
Brandon LaFell just made a ridiculous catch during 7v7s while being double covered (granted it was Butler and Ebner)

Logan Ryan made a nice pick on a Brady ball for Edelman. Really good theater in one-on-one battles between DBs and WRs this AM. #Patriots

Julian Edelman just made a sick leaping one-handed grab in corner of the end zone vs. Kyle Arrington. Tucked it in his elbow for the grab.

The Patriots are giving James White a lot of reps for a rookie. Could see a role in 2014.

Overall, intensity level rises and Bill Belichick’s voice was audible as he cracked the whip in this session. Some live tackling a highlight

During 1v1s, Logan Ryan intercepted Brady while covering Edelman. Edelman made multiple great catches though through the drill

From childhood, Darrelle Revis and Ty Law were cut from same mold | Sports – Patriots | providencejournal.com | The Providence Journa
Great read on the bond between Revis and Ty Law. Must read!
I’ve played against Darrelle for a lot of years, playing him two times a year with the Jets for a long time, so I know the kind of competitor he is. Having him in practice every day makes all of our guys better because they’re seeing the best, a guy that competes every play in the run game and pass game, on every route. He gets pissed off like I do when a ball gets caught on him. So it’s a nice little competition every day. You’re trying to get the best out of each other.

The motivating force on this side of the ball seems to be last season’s AFC title-game loss to the Broncos (New England gave up 400 passing yards and 507 total yards). Players have put the game behind them, but the aftershocks seem to be driving this defense. The starters are challenging the Brady-led offense on every snap in practice and they are getting their fair share of turnovers via interception.
Great read from Pat Kirwan, always enjoy getting his firsthand view of the Pats.

Last season Edelman became the first player in history to rack up 105 receptions and 35 punt returns, proving just how uniquely the Pats deployed him.
