Pats-Falcons joint practice

[JackBauer]

Didn't see any discussion about it, kind of bored of discussing the Jets.

Just a few links I've found so far:

Also several posts here: Official Patriots Football Weekly Blog

In a running summation:

1.) It appears Wilhite still cannot play the ball in the air, causing BB to lose his ****.

2.) Burgess showed some pass rushing moves.

3.) Wilfork seems to be assuming a leadership mantle on defense

4.) Ron Brace looks quick with a good burst

Oh, and Spikes continues to display his badassery:

A couple plays later, Brandon Spikes might have been a little overzealous in his “tag” of wide receiver Brandon Harvey over the middle. Spikes met him like a brick wall and Harvey went down to the ground. The Patriots linebacker got a reminder from Bill Belichick that he was playing touch and not tackle.

Twitter sux.....who cares about speed I want detail and regergatating his tweets into his blog is lazy if I cared about his tweets I would have subscribed instead I just ripped off of a practice report.

Seems to be a lot of Brandons in the NFL. The Pats, alone, have 3. Was there a clearance sale on the name Brandon?

I think the Pats have 5.

Pats have 5 lol
Deaderick, Tate, Spikes, Meriweather, and McGowan

Good to hear positive things about Brace and Burgess. Both good be important role players if they're up to snuff.

Wilhite struggling on deep balls is discouraging, but I'm hoping we don't see him covering deep receivers very often. If he's a dime corner covering slot receivers I think he may have the quickness to keep up. If we're forced to use him outside again this year, he may not have improved his ball skills enough to be effective.

Glad we passed on the 6th. I hear he's back to puntin' and poutin' over his drops...in Miami.

I had to laugh out loud at the Spikes story.

" Patriots players are sincerely confused. They don’t understand why there is a 15-minute break…. “I’ve never seen that,” one says about 2 hours ago via Twitter"

LOL 10 chars

I had to laugh out loud at the Spikes story.

Scary thought: imagine if Spikes actually was reining it in on that play. . . .

 

[MoLewisrocks]

Best twit of the day was a two parter. Part two is the bomb. Vince is goin' old school. Sounds like something one of the old backerhood brothers or Rodney would have said...

Patriots players are sincerely confused. They don’t understand why there is a 15-minute break…. “I’ve never seen that,” one says about 2 hours ago via Twitter for Android

– Falcons players head into the CoolZone. Wilfork seems pissed. Tells teammates they better not go over there. Seriously, its not hot out about 2 hours ago via Twitter for Android

You go Vince:rocker:

These two statements will stay in my head all day long, and may cause me to laugh aloud at random times.

Spikes and Meriweather in particular earn the Prototype Patriot award by being named Brandon and having dreadlocks.

That's one thing I've noticed.. how many players on the D have dreadlocks. This unique phenomenon is dying for a nickname.

That's nice... Hopefully he goes into broadcasting when he hangs 'em up...

 

[Uncle Rico]

Nice to see "Brace" and "quick" in the same sentence without any negative words in between.

Brandon + Deadlocks:
Breadlocks?
Brandocks?

Defense + Deadlocks:
D-locks?
Deflocks?
