This week’s practices in Tampa should really be beneficial to the Pats for multiple reasons:
- Short week will match the same turnaround time for when they have to play the Jets on Thanksgiving.
- Facing a different scheme is great experience for dealing with the unfamiliar, making adjustments, etc.
- Team bonding time away from home always helps.
- Grinding through the hardest week of August in the humidity of Florida should help harden the team.
- Getting to hit someone other than their own teammates for a few days helps make things a little more tolerable.
