Mike Reiss ?@MikeReiss 1m

Not much positive to report offensively in this practice. Rookie WR Kenbrell Thompkins, on his 25th birthday, among those struggling.

from reiss doesn't sound as good

 

[DefenseRules]

Man, that pic made me laugh for 5 minutes.

 

[manxman2601]

Kenbrell Thompkins and Kamar Aiken struggled at practice. Both had drops, failed to gain separation.

Cue everybody rushing to delete their premature cut Michael Jenkins posts

 

[Kontradiction]

I assume that means he was getting a lot of reps.

Wonder if that is at the request of Bill or Josh.

Nope. It means that they were riding on him, or busting his balls.

Meh, everybody has a bad practice or two.

Marcus Benard was strong in pass rush 1 on 1s. Played some OLB in 7on7s too.

[manxman2601]

One thing is obvious through the first few days of camp. The offense has a Loooooong way to go

Patriots Training Camp (Day Four)

Dobson looking great.

Talib shutting down everyone.

Thompkins 3 drops today. demoted for Aiken in the last 11 on 11 drill to end the day.

Harmon across McCourty on some snaps.

Do you think Talib ever received recognition for his offseason work in TB? I don't think so.

I think this guy could put together a special season, all his talent finally being combined with a work ethic, it could propel him into Revis and Sherman company.

He's shutting down two drafted rookies, a bunch of UDFAs and Amendola. We're not talking AJ Green here.

of course it does...look at the turnover...the O won't turn heads this year..but i think the D can and will

Running out of time...this is bad...

Agreed. And I suspect they're emphasising the pass game over the running game to get as many reps as possible. The running game will give better balance when the season kicks in.

Or it could just mean we've got a shut down defense (prays)

 

[Demosthenes]

Too early to worry. Defense should be ahead of the offense this early in camp.

 

[manxman2601]

Since training camp began, Michael Hoomanawanui has been the best tight end. I don't expect great things, but he should be solid & versatile

What I'm about to post is early and obvious, but I still think it's worth noting:

Given the situation, we really need to see this team against other competition before worrying about the reports, except for using them as guidelines when those who are going to the practices actually go to the practices..
