Video: Patriots practice breaks out in a fight!
Thanks to @JetsOverBoston for the heads up on this. Reportedly Nate Solder went after Brandon Spikes with a cheap shot. Knowing Spikes I’m sure he did something to antagonize him, even if that was just Spikes playing style. Gotta love the fire the Pats are showing though. I think they’re ready to his someone other than themselves. The Saints come into town next week. How perfect.

Brandon Spikes talks about his passion for football
Phil G: Brandon… You play with a fire and passion that I love to watch and get your teammates motivated to play hard like you. What do you think or do pre-game to get hyped up like you do?
Brandon Spikes: Honestly, it’s like a switch that I just turn on. It’s been like that since I was a kid. It’s a burning feeling inside me that I’m constantly hyped and passionate. I feel like my teammates see that. Before the game, I’m pacing around and talking. In high school, I had a teammate come up to me and say I love how hard you play I love playing with you. The same thing in college. And last year I had a teammate come up and do the same thing. It’s passion. I love it. That’s why I play. The love of the game. Not the fame or the money. I still feel like a kid playing.

The last few games of the regular season, the Pats had trouble stopping the run. Once Spikes and safety Patrick Chung returned to the lineup, the holes got plugged.
During the postseason, Spikes (27) and Mayo (32) led the team in tackles. Spikes had 11 in the Super Bowl loss to the Giants.
“He has big-play capability. He’s a physical player. He’s strong. He’s around the ball a lot,” McGinest said. “If he can just pick up and understand everything, which would allow him to play faster and not think, sometimes I see him thinking a lot out there, or trying to figure it out. If he could just react and play fast, he’s going to be good.”
Spikes, of course, wears No. 55, the same number three-time Super Bowl winner McGinest wore during his dozen seasons with the Patriots. All kidding aside, McGinest said we should know the true direction of Spikes in the coming year.
“He should be full steam ahead coming into next year. That will tell it all. This next season,” McGinest said. “He should make a lot of big plays for them. He should be one of the leaders as far as making plays on that defense along with Mayo.”
