[0:19]" They embody the the entities as well as anyone and that's led to the success and I think everybody really wants to be part of that. You know I never did I think I thought -- ever be my last -- but you know things happening and I have to."

[0:31]" To be here now with your Patriots without an eight training camp update Reuters of Patriot football weekly. Friday August 15 the year 2008. And a very special -- today. The final day of public access to training camp practices here to a stadium. And they went out with a bang as John Lynch. The new member of the New England Patriots. Was on the practice field wearing number 47 which he apparently poor from the -- superstar rookie Vince read. Or it upon -- Portland today when the coaching staff actually ripped it out of interest hands and they're going to be having a new number rook and any changes last into. And that changed his name roster and isn't a number name Joe's mom ever get to areas anyway. Exciting days Patriots but the final -- on preparations for Sunday's second receiving game in Tampa. But John Lynch will be accompanying the team I assume downed -- champion -- play. As well. Dug himself into the playbook. And now I'm -- quickly go over the go to guys not at practice moment turn over Michael guarantee he was the -- year's UW early on in practice and the rest of us were lacking in sight. But as I said we'll start with the guys not on the field twelfth Tom Brady. Fifteen Kelley Washington 21 Jason Webster two point forward Jonathan will like 29 Lewis Sanders 32 LaMont Jordan 35 Mike Richardson. 37 Rodney Harrison 38 Kyle tackle. UP guard number 61 Stephen Neal 68 Brian -- and have anyone rest spoke on 72 Matt Light 76 PUP. Tackle Oliver -- 82 -- Something even spot doesn't come Kevin Stevens the 88 in Macon in ninety looked even Smith. One last injury update. Cornerback Fernando Bryant appeared to acting up his left arm last shoulder breaking up a pass in the goal line for. Benjamin Watson and the -- that he with the trainers in and keep in mind that but. Now like some smiling alive on the sidelines with -- America -- he -- to break -- attempting to break up past. But Michael Brent -- taught it to you give me your. No formerly practiced and what your reaction was to -- John Lynch on the football field."

[2:47]" Well okay I think early you know we saw a lot of was heaven on seven and goal line short yardage work they pumped in the crowd noise with the music blared from speakers and trying to get Yankee -- Tuesday and as directly to read off snap count. When you're in the huddle on music pop in on it out. They were doubled and that sort of stuff the short distance short yardage goal line work what Salmons a little bit out there lining up as a nickel back sort of plain -- that line of scrimmage. Non. Couple plays we blitzed we saw two UN on -- have a a couple of times becoming an idea what they're trying to -- but he -- he might be able to do early on but again he's living out their a couple of -- so look into it so what is the real world --"

[3:24]" He was very active though it wasn't one of these things where it's a new guided trying to -- he was out there right away. As Mike said in the live in the nickel package he was what he was running with the ones a lot of times too so. -- uninteresting because we've seen Brandon meriwether take a lot of those reps on the inside he was on the field. Which is no longer in the slot right here to play and mentally as well -- deep zone and -- my boy James Sanders apparently is. Cemented to the sideline for -- days I'm not happy with that development but we'll -- more on that. I'm discuss that with Rodney Harrison because he's my favorite guys but I have to thank you know another data he's out of uniform the practice and -- officially here we talked about it at length -- there what we thought lynch might be able to do. We talked about on PFW on progress. I gotta have and some legitimate concerns right now. Of the availability of -- for Harrison. Even heading into the season and long term for the and because. I don't think as a move they've United and I think it's interesting of what -- with Eric and and Michael. Talked about how much lynch was doing and with whom he was doing it win. That to me was striking to be with the first guys in be out there it was meriwether and and -- and in body all those guys and a little bit -- you know. I'll I'll be good to see how the whole thing with went pans out but almost more so concerned that that Harrison is. His not to not going to be ready to play sixteen games following practice John Lynch today one on one interview first with Patriots dot com in the Patriot today crew so. I urge -- to -- click on over elsewhere on the website and check that out. Any -- met with the rest of the media -- in the rest of the media and now he talked a little bit about what Drew him to New England now four years later after the team showed initial interest."

[5:11]" You know people people want to be involved with that with success and and you know the fact that they've been very successful I think makes it a place where a lot of people want to be but -- understand that what they've done in the past than. Then going to stand for all -- right now we got to create you know the season by going out there every day and work artist and and a this week -- and look forward to that test. -- you. Very much you know Omar. From San Diego so off seasons and whatnot and running -- couple times and and that we've always admired each -- play and a can be great field play with him. You know aren't I think our careers I think this is his fifteenth Q my six and so obviously when you're in the game. I don't think so much measurement that study them you know you try to emulate guys that are at the the best in him and take little parts of their game in Africa. Think you know he's going to have always respected for the passion plays with and the way he plays. As refund."

[6:18]" Interesting side note on John Lynch while he didn't win championships with -- ever played with never played for a coach that in when who dribble. That's and Jon gruden -- Mike Shanahan Bill Belichick. Bill Walsh and Tony Dungy in Tampa. All of his coaches at some point we're comparable coach oh at Stanford though bill Walsh and it. That's what he and check the facts but he has not -- like bill Walsh Stanford. I went went. But -- thing I think he talked about how quickly he's working to digest the playbook. Sort of back and forth across the country couple times -- to meet with the Patriots. Get the physical everything that Bill Belichick told a couple days ago then went back to discuss with -- family. Signed decided to sign came back and said he was based upon might learn the playbook in and out on the field that we got our early. Did you take note of one little thing he said a minute following a -- about being concerned about Harrison. When when the question -- asked about Rodney Harrison in an interview and he said I'm looking forward to playing with him. Now maybe it may be subliminally maybe he knows it now. Something too serious with -- that eventually you'll be will be back. And could be. It may be Emery too much and thought I would say they'll I I think you might be reading too much into a point because he's been here so. You know so little that I'm not sure you even know nobody on the American singer well but if if maybe that was brought up Brett. That you know -- we're bringing win because there's an immediate need you know if they didn't say that maybe. That maybe that's a good time."

[7:52]" It's just over the -- too is that you look -- for playing -- even and even really know. I don't know -- an -- a chance he's yet he Rodney Harris right on well that we have is that but I I and if you want to re -- intuit. Probably dated or anything like that to him Brett won it would you need junior -- out bodies down we're probably not going to have him. You know and that's that's the role in the east -- anything like that model like I don't think he -- at plus we saw Rodney on the practice field."

[8:19]" in the running with the trainers on that Monday I -- that was so it's not like he's on crutches right now we know he can physically. -- swing is arms move around it not evidence that that in my senior leader in. Major injury via that that meant doing and the between Monday and Friday. Necessarily -- clutches and it album my point is. Yet he could've had a minor setback but not a John Lynch is never going to play running are -- you might play into week three anyway not a big topic today. Practice -- Randy mosque in Yuma. -- the media with the opportunity to ask him three. Very simple questions was very direct and honest and infected walk away after the third question. But our -- to gender was there to collect the audio and now one of them pointing answers had to do with the expectations this offense is facing this year internally and externally."

[9:08]" Well I'm actually. Kind of nervous. And the reason why I think that. You know what we did -- whole unit. You know we're going to try to come young and you know put points on the board that's what we're were coach next to do but. Noted expectation of bars. -- so high here not by you are not about a fans but it's about a coach and the things so well you know we have high expectations for this -- in this team as a unit. But what we did last year man I don't think we can really really -- and dwell laughed at because you know it was last year but. Com like -- as low -- but it nervousness that no how hot I have a bars here."

[9:47]" The bars very high record setting offense he's returning to and now he -- first and there was about actually coming back why he re -- as we forget that was a question way back when he hasn't really. Addressed since then but continued to use the words unfinished business for the reasoning in coming back and working with Tom and all that. Saudis they or I think they're going to get a chance to take that first -- the Sunday night in Tampa. Brady said he was going to play I would expect mark will be out there if Brady in the ones are out there. So willow gets a little bit of a taste of what the offense might look like and how. Might be different or similar moving forward but anyway that's going to wrap up another -- training camp podcast the final."
