Patriots Training Camp Photos:

we know Bill Belichick likes a running back by committee, which tends to keep those fantasy numbers down but keeps their legs fresh.

That shows his versatility, besides filling in for Jones at defensive end, he can play either the SAM or WILL linebacker positions and is a core special teamer. He sprung Danny Amendola for a big punt return against the Chiefs.

Smith is the “X-factor” in both KC’s running and passing game. One thing to consider is that Bill Belichick has always been a bit passive when facing a quarterback who can run.

Edelman can produce both inside and outside the numbers, he’s Tom Brady’s go-to guy in most third down situations when the need to move the chains. He brings that quick, short pass dynamic to the New England offense.

Between the regular season and playoffs of 2014, LaFell caught 87 passes for 1072 yards and nine touchdowns.

Bill Belichick and Matt Patricia had plans to beef up the front seven and trust in some young players in the secondary to carry the team this season.

Brady led the NFL in touchdown passes with 36 with only 7 INTs and had a passer rating of 102.2. He also led the league in touchdown to interceptions ratio with 5.1.

Harmon has transitioned into a fine safety for the Patriots with a distinct role; one that he’s excelled on. Now he’ll have to take over DMac’s role for the time being.

the big news was the return to the Patriots practice this week of both Rob Gronkowski and Julian Edelman. They were both filmed (not so coincidentally), beside each other during warmups with a smiling Belichick behind them.

The Patriots activated rookie UDFA Chris Harper off of the PS on Tuesday. As a WR/KR he’lll have a nice opportunity to garner himself some playing time

The Patriots activated OL Chris Barker from the practice squad on Saturday. He can play anywhere along the line but practiced at tackle this training camp

The Patriots reach the halfway point of 2015 at 8-0, for the 2nd time in team history.. Health is the only obstacle standing in their path and a deep run.

Tom Brady is intent of proving every one of his doubters wrong in 2015 and is as focused and as motivated as he’s ever been.

With the game with the Redskins on Sunday afternoon, here is a look at some of the more interesting numbers for the Patriots this week.

Tom Brady continued his mastery over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. Brady passed for 466 yards and three touchdowns as New England won 40-32.
