All that Ricky haircuts and oh yeah they're thinking mindset. Coming up right now actually noticed he treats it. Welcome to Toyota's Patriots today. Brought to your side that Toyota Tundra."

[0:54]" Hi everybody and welcome Toyota's Patriots today I'm Christina at grad pre kid has come to an -- for the Patriots there's a lot of transactions with the team over the past few weeks. But today the biggest one of all came when the Patriots officially sign."

[1:08]" Safety John Lynch. "

[1:10]" And always have admired this organization from afar."

[1:14]" Yeah 47 was on the eight full orchestra had its first Patriots practice and lots of reps with -- his new team. After the breakfast lunch and he was happy to be part of the --"

[1:27]" New things always impressed me the most is. The way they play the game I think they've played the right way they embody it is very specific team. As well anymore and that's that led to the success and I think everybody really wants be part of that."

[1:42]" Cited as dominant team -- for a long time. Is playing style -- productions and his favorite player and organizations. On hopefuls. And helped and we couldn't quite. A couple of years ago and a lot of respect for John way to play isn't it."

[2:02]" I'm joined now on the field by the newest member of the New England Patriots John Lynch let's start with the first question what brings you to -- England. Well you know feel honored that they want me this is a you know storied franchise and you know just happy to be a part of that come back here and course I know about lot of these guys for being around the league you know. -- to have probable some things and you know it's to be out on the field with you know likes of Tom and Vrabel Bruschi Rodney. Randy you know it just goes on and on but more importantly to me I think the thing that appealed to me is that since the team here and I think they. They can embody that more than anybody in this league and and just excited to be part of that. We just want to -- they have a solid group of veterans and the on this field looking you bring to that. Well this spring when I've always -- you know I try to play with great passion. And play hard all the time. Get experience of seeing a lot. And I still just have a have a tremendous passion this game I love it -- it. You know have an opportunity come out here each and every day and you know looking forward to get go with his friendships you mentioned Promos early had you had a chance to work with coach Novella check did you develop any kind of relationship to those then. Well you know really not did on the past too much but before it came to Denver very close to coming here and you know I never thought that I play somewhere else other than Denver -- in my career there. But I you know I said if I had the opportunity come back -- so impressed from -- visit last time this."

[3:33]" It would be great place complain and."

[3:35]" And what reports -- And caddie and missed all of training camp house a transition going to -- area. You know I was in camp and so feel like I'm someone in football shape I kept working each and every day not knowing what would happen but there. -- work and so I actually felt real good out there today and that. You know it's return and that Tampa mild and stopping grandstand there in TO moment so before. When you see on the field and senate we'll see you know coach wants me out they'll be out there."

[4:07]" We'll jobless steadily said that he's happy to be here and I think from watching practice it looked like he was fitting right in -- and we think yeah he said he fit and he -- he -- here looked like he mixed in a little bit not nationally with the first team. Defense but definitely got some -- and I was looking at during stretching here's Jack with Bill Belichick. There are some of the early drills he's chat with Dean Pees and then over the course of practice chatting with Fernando Bryant. Chatting with some of the other veterans from the of the safeties James Sanders and -- meriwether young -- but guys who have been here for now a couple of years who could maybe give -- parts -- knowledge into drug really eyeing him and it looks like he's going to be good that I really think so."

[4:42]" Well especially now that he's missed basically all of training camp here. Is that the best way to do it is to learn from the other players on the very last day maybe."

[4:49]" Probably and you know what I mean he huge probably involved as much as he could be with Denver's offseason program and even though he missed last couple of weeks kind of trade -- you might be fresher than some other guys who have been through training camp for a couple weeks companies got a -- in the system -- quicker he said he spent last night. Learn the playbook maybe we -- as we -- that we don't but. I think being fifteen years sixteen year veteran he's like -- than -- ever feel I've feeling I don't know find out -- clock but I feel Garcia avenue and 47 other."

[5:16]" Right hands that and now we're going to send it to a break only that the more Patriots coming up right after the --"

[5:23]" And you know put points on the board and that's what we're we're coaching next group."

[5:28]" It's better than ever bought speaks for the first time on the last --"

[5:36]" Today coming right up. There."

[5:39]" The ring gear on many have tons there is this big. The one you want is this big. Tell you like them apples. Available on. Tundra it's -- it's changing you know."

[6:03]" Well wide receiver. He must've been out there at practice throughout training camp we have not yet heard from him. Today he spoke for the first time in the very last day of camp here he is right now in your patron -- locker room and cut."

[6:21]" Well I'm actually. Kind of nervous. And a reason why they did. You know what we did last year as a whole unit. You know we're going to try to come out and and you know put points on the board that's what we're we're coaching next to do -- No expectation -- bars. Sits so high here not by you are not by the fans but just you know about a coach and -- so you know we have high expectations for this offense in this team as a unit. But what we did last year man I don't think we can really really live and well off that because you know it was last year but. Like a -- as low a little bit of nervousness that I know ha ha ha ha out of bars here. What a good thing that I can really say about our offense. And I'm speaking for myself is is that. You know you have guys that really came in late you know Gaffney myself. Chad Jackson was hurt last year and you know Welker came coming in last year for the have a whole off season training camp. Under our belt to really understand. The offense in the concept is is is really scary to -- nervous man because there's no really no talent. Know what we're gonna do so like to say the -- we see what happens."

[7:31]" Well there's been a lot going on in Foxboro today but there is still a football game to focus on on Sunday. Right now Brian is going to take a look at the top three things to watch for against the bucks."

[7:51]" The number one storyline at the -- head to Raymond James -- In the past -- at the office. Will there be some improvement if you will miss you."

[7:59]" Opener against the Ravens. People had ten days between games and -- one practice this week the quarterbacks centers spent significant extra time working on snapped. -- fundamentals. Is a good chance Tom Brady get some snaps in with the first team offense. But all eyes will then beyond that castle in the backups to -- they've stepped up their play. Other than -- it will be interesting to help you regulars were merely spectators against Baltimore beat the field. Does Brady must -- ago probably fellow wideout Wes Welker and Ellis Hobbs gets reps for the first time what about key role players like Seymour and Jarvis Green. There's certainly no need to panic at any event don't play after all Moss missed all four pre season. My -- just fine with the regular season kicked off. Within the next few weeks the -- we'll have to cut their roster down significantly. That means time for guys on the bubble to make a name for themselves and is no better way to do that in the game situations. You're -- keep a close eye on Sunday night. And once Dan has been on an awful lot federal the last few years but this has been a strong training. It's a definite issues in that position to ban designer -- to make the -- opening day roster for the first time. Victor hobson wasn't much of a factor against the Ravens overshadowed by the team's younger linebackers. He's talked about going through some ups and downs and we're in the past defense. A strong performance Sunday could go along way in solidifying -- presence as a reliable inside linebacker. On the offensive side Marcus Pollard is in a similar spot but veteran newcomer looking to find in the tight end had a few receptions against the Ravens. And it had a decent but unspectacular camp a continuation of that -- lucky enough to earn him a roster spot."

[9:49]" All right Brian well the Bucs had a pretty interesting kid themselves all the Favre mania questions of him going down there what's your quarterback status for now when you write it seems like it was an absolute circus there for awhile until Favre actually was traded to the Jets really seemed to consulate commotion especially with starting quarterback Jeff Garcia I think usual worried about his job. If you can play in their for receiving game win against Miami you've calf injury. And seems unlikely actually you know play this weekend Jon gruden coach said that if -- caps -- the Patriots have a wrong -- team won Roma there again. In pre season game they've got a lot of backups for -- Brian Griese would count Josh Johnson pricey handful of those guys and maybe maybe Garcia will get his first. And Patriots are going to see a former teammate. Down in Tampa this weekend Eugene Wilson -- it'll be the first of three straight pre season game for the former defensive back from the class of 2003 Eugene Wilson down there Tampa seems like he's had on and off on again off again pre season. I training camp and the next we decide they singled -- right here in this house. Unless he's injured which incidentally you have in this it's that drink -- so we'll see the old number 26 Eugene Wilson on Sunday."

[10:52]" Iowa that's going to do it for us for Patriots training camp 2008. Fully back on Monday with a full recap of the bucks game right here on -- Patriots today."

[11:02]" They're good dogs and Ricky haircuts. Some some of an improvement. I thought about. The after."
