He is coming back from being injured again and I don\u2019t expect to see him in the game unless they are showcasing him for another team.\u00a0\u00a0 Who will win the backup spots?\u00a0 Kody Russey has looked good at Center.\u00a0 James Ferentz is a wily veteran and reliable player.\u00a0 Will Sherman is pushing Arlington Hambright for the backup OG position.\u00a0 What about Justin Herron?\u00a0 The Wynn status makes a difference for Herron.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mac Jones<\/strong> &#8211; \u00a0\u00a0I am hoping we see Jones play into the 1<sup>st<\/sup> series of the 2<sup>nd<\/sup> half.\u00a0 Last Friday against Carolina Jones was way off, the worst that I have seen him play.\u00a0 Yes, he dropped a dime to Nelson Agholor on a beautiful play, but that was it! \u00a0After a bad practice on Tuesday, they played much better on Wednesday.\u00a0 Can Jones continue that improvement on Friday night?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Defense vs a good Offense<\/strong> \u2013 last week the Pats&#8217; D dominated a weak Carolina Offense (192 yards of total offense).\u00a0 They are perhaps the worst in the league.\u00a0 Las Vegas is another story.\u00a0 They are elite and under the tutelage of Josh McDaniel could be a very strong contender this year.\u00a0 Davante Adams is one of the top three receivers in the league.\u00a0 He is uncoverable at times.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Patriots\u2019 secondary vs Carr and Raiders Receivers<\/strong> \u2013 It appeared that the Raiders had an upper hand this week in practice. The patriots secondary played better on Wednesday&#8217;s practice.\u00a0 We will find out real quick if there is some true improvement over the defense that couldn\u2019t get off the field against the Bills last year. \u00a0\u00a0I have seen Jarrett Stidham play twice already this pre-season and that is not the same Quarterback that played for the Patriots!\u00a0 He looked more like Jason Stidham in one of his action movies!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Defensive Line vs Raiders rushing game<\/strong> \u2013 This seems to be the Patriots&#8217; biggest area of improvement. \u00a0Can they continue to show improvement and depth against a quality opponent?\u00a0 \u00a0Another player to keep an eye on is RB Zamir White.\u00a0 The 6\u2019 215 lb. running back out of Georgia ran a 4.40 40 at the combine and helped lead Georgia to the National Championship.\u00a0 He has already displaced Kenyan Drake (who was released this week) and is the #2 running back on the team behind Josh Jacobs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Special Teams <\/strong>\u2013 There are roster spots to be claimed this week and some of those will depend upon who is playing Special Teams. UDFA Brenden Schooler appears to be a lock to make the team as a Special Teams ace. \u00a0WR Lil\u2019Jordan Humphrey not only leads the team with 11 receptions in the pre-season games but also made a highlight reel play on special teams last week, keeping a punt from going into the end zone for a touchback. \u00a0Can he replace a gunner like Justin Bethel while adding depth at three positions (WR\/TE\/ST)?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Former Patriots Everywhere \u2013 Brandon Bolden is the leader of the ex-pats alumni club of Nevada!\u00a0 Isaiah Zuber, Jakob Johnston, Jermaine Eluemunor, and Duron Harmon are all expected to play Friday night.<\/p>\n<p>These are reposts of accounts from the leading reporters that are in Las Vegas reporting on the two joint practice<\/p>\n<p><strong>8\/22 Practice in Las Vegas<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Henry, Wynn, Bourne, and Herron were back at practice \u2013 Phil Perry<\/li>\n<li>Multiple teams have talked to NE about trading for Wynn \u2013 Albert Breer<\/li>\n<li>Not spotted Thornton, Wilkerson, Langi, and Perkins<\/li>\n<li>90-minute practice in shells and shorts at \u00be speed<\/li>\n<li>Lots of work 11-on-11<\/li>\n<li>The team is staying 10 miles away from the Vegas strip<\/li>\n<li>The team worked on screen passes a lot<\/li>\n<li>Red Zone fade pass to Smith for TD to the Birthday Boy<\/li>\n<li>Simulated 2 min, Meyers on two straight dig routes<\/li>\n<li>Tavai picked off Hoyer<\/li>\n<li>Peppers pulled up on a hit or he would have crushed his own teammate<\/li>\n<li>Bourne was back working with the first unit today<\/li>\n<li>Will Sherman is making a late push to make the team<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>8\/23 Joint Practice <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Greg Bedard had this to say &#8211; Raiders are dominating both sides of the ball<\/li>\n<li>1<sup>st<\/sup> three plays, run stuff, run stuff, and a sack<\/li>\n<li>Jones 5-9 in 7-on-7s<\/li>\n<li>Henry caught the only throw downfield<\/li>\n<li>The offense looks defeated coming off the field<\/li>\n<li>Carr sliced up the secondary in 7-on-7s<\/li>\n<li>Adams is unfair in trying to cover<\/li>\n<li>Jones picked off in 2 min drill \u2013 was visibly upset and pacing the sideline<\/li>\n<li>Evan Lazar posted these tweets \u2013 Jon Jones had a PBU on Adams after he was beaten twice by Adams<\/li>\n<li>Pats O struggled \u2013 One good completion on a shallow crossing pattern.

I wanted the Patriots to draft Quinn Meinerz OL from DIII Wisconsin-Whitewater.\u00a0 I had a disagreement with Evan Lazar on Meinerz.\u00a0 He played OG in college and self-taught himself to shotgun snap and play Center.\u00a0 The first time he played Center was at the Senior Bowl.\u00a0 He was the O-line Practice Player of the week as voted by his peers on the defensive line.\u00a0 Lazar said he was just a Center and we didn\u2019t need a Center.\u00a0 Meinerz cracked the Denver lineup mid-season due to an injury and started at LG for the remainder of the season.\u00a0 He is penciled in as the starting RG this season.\u00a0 If we had him, then trading Mason would make more sense.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cut Down Day Looming<\/strong> \u2013 the Cutdown day is Tuesday, August 30<sup>th<\/sup>
