Not even @Brady6 could kill him!

(meant as good naturedly ribbing)

Danny has helped this team win 2 SB and has banged numerous models in the process. I have nothing negative to say about him anymore. It's all love!

What is this? Boyscouts?

-- Late in the work with the receivers, the defensive backs all dropped as a group to do pushups, something they’ve been doing in recent practices after allowing completions. They were then told by position coach Josh Boyer that the pushups were not needed after a mere 4-yard completion by the offense.

Patrick Chung used to do this at Oregon. I think he brought it here too. They or (maybe just him) did it one year his first stint with the team. Apparently now he's bringing it back.

I did a quick Google of Chung and push ups and it brought up the draft forum. Sure enough there is a tiny reference to his push up club.

Meet Patrick Chung

They've taken to calling themselves the "D-Boyz," a nickname emblazoned on the protective lower-back flap on their practice uniforms. They have their own private practice rituals, such as spontaneous push-ups.

Some other bits of observations:

-- Jacoby Brissett has not had a great first couple days of mini-camp. The second-year passer continues to hold onto the ball for way too long. He’s also struggled with his accuracy, clapping his hands together loudly after missing must-have NFL completions in today’s workout.


..

Not surprised. Jacoby is a super high character guy, a great guy. But I question whether or not he has the arm/accuracy to be a successful NFL QB. He really struggles throwing the football. Dak Prescott, who was drafted after him, throws the ball with much more zip and accuracy. Jacoby is more of a project, but you gotta wonder what his ceiling is at this point. I think Jimmy G has a much higher ceiling.

And this is how Pats O will feel to opposition..

Watching that over and over you can tell Brady has a higher throwing motion than Garoppolo and Brisset.

Unfortunately early reports of Dwayne Allen is exactly what i expected, a soft, injury prone guy with bad hands just like he was in Indianapolis, you can say a lot of things about the Colts but they can put up nice passing numbers and his contribution was poor.

I'm expecting Scott Chandler 2.0.

Good observations with that throwing motion Jimmy is going to get a lot of balls batted down.

Honestly when he first came here, I was wondering if he stole your girl or something. The guy has clutch in his DNA.

Love that cranky, old bastard.

I feel like he fist-bumped me.

For BB to make a note of this is telling.

Seems like Lewis may not have been up to snuff last year.

Have you noticed how Gill started running to the field the moment TB rushed by him? No words needed..

 

[AtomicDawg]

Cold stare of death.

That is so true. Follow the GOAT. That's the Patriot difference. He makes you want to be better.

The guy's a born stand-up .. they could sell tickets for this sessions..
