[0:03]" Toyota Tundra just won the 2008 motor trend and truck of the year and and that's pretty. That's changing it."

[0:14]" Coming up went. And Toyota's Patriots today. It was --"

[0:25]" Is that overwhelming. Majority. One of the things that we're really concerned about going into the Kansas City games thought their job in the running game."

[0:33]" x.s and o.s with a head coach today we got our first Belichick break. And we've got our predictions for the weekend from our Madden 9 games and all that and more coming up right. Welcome to Toyota's Patriots today. Brought to your side that Toyota Tundra."

[0:55]" I'm -- Tom Brady -- I don't watch it."

[1:00]" Enlargement yeah. It shows whatever groups. -- that to your --"

[1:07]" About to show what I don't look at it and it can't --"

[1:13]" It was. Exchanged text. Which industry government will be back."

[1:19]" Actually Thomas been. Has been so tough throughout. His whole career. Take a lot of hits. In just goes to show you mean just never know and I know he knows that I know we all -- That was just free time really Willis."

[1:37]" Hello everyone and welcome the Patriots today I'm Christina -- clearly more players in the league -- just the Patriots. Were affected by top -- injury an exit for the season including the two fellow starting quarterbacks just heard from. But the Patriots are moving forward and are ready to take on Brett Favre and the Jets as we can't. Let's hear from the Patriots deep that's right off the top."

[2:00]" I think the usual isn't expect the unexpected. Because. He's -- games. They know us well. You know them well. It's a game where we may have to sideline adjustments on the things BC because they may be new still early in the season and so. Whoever looks better on film possibly will be different Hussein not there on Sunday."

[2:22]" You know a lot of teams rally you know around situations where. You have to -- government and -- as a football team's publicity -- is no different books and I think we can and a -- affect him you know. I don't think he'll take a slightly ago."

[2:39]" Now it's time to break down the game situation on Sunday even further in here what Paul Perillo had to say about the face off this weekend. Jerry is his five points."

[2:51]" Let's jump right and number want Matt Cassel and where else we're gonna start -- how this is. Inclusion in the offense in. Attack the Patriots right optical. I think. Convinced that game would do things that he did against Kansas City avoid mistakes. Don't make sense -- is going to make some plays. Patriots offense has really picked up right where it left -- it's not going to beat this record setting Tom Brady led offense. But it did what an efficient I think it starts with -- avoid the mistakes he's going to see some things that are communities but he hasn't seen before how he handles those. Will be very important in this week's game. No one way they can really help -- a lot of right obviously generating strong running game mock heroics anymore LaMont Jordan. This team has five running backs Kevin Faulk is coming back this week. There's a lot of different options and the ball went in order for any of those guys to have success -- going to have to do a good job. Blockers -- use of data acquisition Jets made in the offseason. Last week Miami Bailey and fifty yards on the ground Ronnie Brown that we have to nothing just going to be a big tactic called him. Besides -- its affiliates are going to do a good job double teaming him and Bill Belichick said today that is very important part for the Jets. Obviously the Jets it's all ball red -- how -- you know Matt Cassel. People think it's going to be a little bit more conservative well just the opposite your best -- it would. Crackpot and get the ball downfield he's going to try. The Patriots secondary leads the discipline to stick with the receivers. Brett Favre improvise he would have been great that he's at now he's still get out of the pocket you still make plays the start of the fourth down play last week. Against Miami it was like hail Mary let those plays that you made all -- He has -- constantly with the -- outfield. Very important for the Patriots secondary stayed disciplined on their coverage on their assignments. Stick with the receivers to Jericho Cotchery and Laveranues Coles these guys have heard the Patriots past and Brett Favre will find -- the division out of position. My next point -- what's vitally involved the special teams and one really big factor here from New York their kicker Mike Nugent was injured last week against the Dolphins. Birds I don't really affect the -- date -- when -- couldn't -- and hit it. Mr. George feels like kind of left some points on the board beside J Healy during the course of the week it was like he'll be available. Statistic but one thing about really just picked off there's not fifty. As some of the other guys and I think -- tackle spots. Who has hurt the Jets remember that 108 after -- last year and I think that's an area the Patriots to take advantage of -- time. Patriots coverage units were a little bit since he joined the summer Leon Washington Justin -- dangerous guys but yet so desperately -- to -- Special teams support here in game that you've been good advances will dominate and be very. Okay raise your hand if you know what's gonna happen and it's. What's your hands on your overall line and nobody knows what's going to happen this game nobody knows how the Patriots are going to react with Matt Cassel at the helm. In eight years somebody other than Tom Brady has been starting quarterback and I'm sorry it is possible until the door. How the Patriots are good response that we know he has created lots Wes Welker. We know he has all the running backs but we just don't know obviously in the stands out. The pressure's going to face in the meadowlands against the free agency I don't want to obviously -- the Jets have improved. -- on the right track and I think that it was just his I think his game. It's much more important. For New York. They have to win -- division game at home. With a great it was Patriots team or else they're going to be in trouble they're going to be behind it all the rest of the season the AFC east is now that. Fuel station -- it. Unfortunately I think you are going to I. I think it's going to be a tough defensive game maybe twenty to ten I think obviously the players what capsules able to -- I think -- dominate like that just finds a way to get the okay to castle errors to turn things change from here on out but we're now. That's going to put crap like five points for real."

[6:58]" Paul and Brian Lowe will be at Giants Stadium this weekend for the game -- have -- recap for you on my. Webb Morgan thank them enough for him."

[7:08]" Thanks to everyone. Prepared for the weekend we've got to telecheck break."

[7:11]" And Randy comes down with them for touchdowns."

[7:14]" There's more Patriots today coming right up."

[7:26]" Pat on the back. The 2008 motor trend truck of the year. The drug. Changing at all."

[7:35]" That's right Patriots today is on -- welcome party for all of you. Cassette to -- questions and comments on how long also hit Patriots related pictures -- love to -- those two. It's a great way to communicate with -- all of our dealers and are looking to get that. We want to thank you Gary -- drummer -- the second from Frankfurt New York for posting a picture of his that he knows he can still. Make sure you guys because they spoke photos --"

[8:12]" Hi everybody Michael it's along with -- Bill Belichick time now for a plays of the week one defensive play. In one offensive play we look at it from a couple of different angles. Well one of the things that we're really concerned about going into the two Kansas City game stop Hitler Johnson's running game. One of the plays that she's like to run off tackle play where they had a kind of double team and and kick out and try to get the ball in the despite an off tackle -- so on this play I -- walked down to warm here comes the Arctic out. No Vrabel -- and come around and -- try to get out there and that's been an off tackle old guard a powerful left right now Bruschi and thrilling well played you can -- from the sidelines this argument any ground ball on us Germans. Vrabel -- a good job of coming frost has been garden tonight Bruschi and Warren relief in the supplemental draft back inside. Is the same play from the end zone and -- really isn't going to look at right here. Double team comes down on Warren and and I really doesn't get a job right here pushed him back out and those little bit. Right there. Bruschi reads the play and hops outside and seek after Mayo -- and here. Then -- It is really -- if he gets low and get underneath them all blacks that doesn't move out of there. It was a good leverage and play her locker. When things in the right place but those -- even have -- that was great yeah. Edinson UConn he has played here that all the way across the -- our past levels lower than Kansas city's other red jerseys are higher the Blazers are lower. Occasionally the leverage and yeah. Triple Crown in there and make -- play and good tackles. Good job really come from backlog. Gordon. Mayo and James Sanders Hairston you know just into the ground -- literally no word on. There -- as. -- here we go another Patriots first touchdown of the day and Matt Cassel big third down play here that kept suffer nearly a hundred yard drive. Because their -- on the tennis and what Kansas that he likes to do they like to go back and kind of put all their players -- yeah right roundtable on New York to do in front of behind the goal line. Take offense was. And we're going to do on this planet -- chronicle receiver. Just past the goal line and on the other receivers he's come back at the end zone try try to stretch that -- coverage zone and here it is right here and we'll you know Welker and Thomas 'cause I'm not sure -- Moss is going to come inside and yeah. A little opening there and that gets the ball and ran makes -- nice catch on. First touchdown but. Real good distribution on the pattern from. You know not not get too close together and a function Austin. There's finally a little bit of space there against them. We can with the ball we're trying to make very asking I was in new rule this year you can get pushed out of bounds and is no longer will be really -- for completions and touchdown and it really comes into play here. Guys if it it really does you know and not Randy goes -- makes the catch he he's clearly comes down both feet in bounds. I think probably with the defender with want to try to do in this case -- it's just. Going to push him out fully convinced that sucks put down but don't you can see how fighters throw it it's just yeah. You know there's the safety taken Thomas and then -- right their council get the ball and 200 reigning got to go applying guess it was he doesn't get his feet down. Good job on protection well you can -- this is a good matchup right here thanks again Ortiz number one draft analysts and -- thanking them for good job on Campbell meanwhile Colvin comes and we call cleans out the pockets though. These guys are blogs like this Mankins holes appearance middle. Against north -- mapped out as good clear on camera. Stuff off. Deliver the ball put it right we're only we can get it. Yeah Randy come -- them for a touchdown. Well executed play framework polarized as it is."

[12:08]" Usually the case it's all of the people not just the quarterback going to one this year you know I got a protection -- throw -- my coach very interesting is always. Coach spell check on our plays of the week."

[12:19]" Welcome back to Patriots today I'm joined now by when the newest addition to the quarterback position for the Patriots Deltha O'Neal thanks for coming in. As that quick move from Cincinnati to New England in. Pretty serious week between pre season and the regular season what does that transition been like Korea real hectic."

[12:36]" And I have a lot of stuff that is Cincinnati and to make this move you know I left a lot of stuff behind left Malone grows behind people in the schools so. Has been overwhelming but no -- enjoying it."

[12:49]" Has it caught up yet has it sunk in that you know argued situated yet."

[12:53]" I'll -- did their emblem of the fourth place right now. As far as being around a team they staved off. Pretty -- fit right and they they welcomed -- O problems and and I kind of felt good way."

[13:06]" You've been playing against the Patriots up until now -- he'd seen that side of it what's it like to coming to this team and."

[13:14]" I know a couple of guys on the team -- That. A lot of it was. We ever had consistent programs for movies woman whom here you should could take out until -- take him and his and you know since I've been here in the I've been having fun with Ellis -- with the rookies and forward all the James and especially -- I was -- so. But in the on this -- been have a phone."

[13:43]" There's a lot of elite players in the deep sense and in your position but particularly -- veteran that you're coming in. As one of the -- the new guy so how is that balance out."

[13:53]" You know I've I've I've notice you know I'd be treated kind of like. The first year of junior. In. I have the whole mentality is trying to fit in where I came and once you know if from and you know."

[14:10]" And that's. It learn in the movie phases of the like -- is always in the playbook which I need to be in on the meetings with the coaches -- I just felt like a version of god for your feelings in the first game. I -- I was excited though I was really excited about even just step on the field with the guys in the secondary containment and he knows. I was happy I was hadn't made."

[14:39]" Okay you know this is a rivalry between Patriots and the Jets it's coming it seems kind of this weekend. Adding in the change at quarterback with Matt Cassel and also Brett Favre. You guys to go up against what are your thoughts and then the game in general."

[14:52]" Scoop did the game you know the Jets have a lot of weapons Brett Favre you know it's not -- talk about his age he plays like he's. Second third year guy and isn't strong Award and who receiving corps that they have been real good and there's going to be a challenge for us. Our office who always always going to do well. -- going to knock them just as Brady went down. Sixteen is going to do the job for instance has got to ride his back."

[15:20]" And a later -- And you've been able to take in New England at all seeing anything been around."

[15:25]" I've been to Boston. For the Florida airport. Saw the city lights. Providence have been a couple of times that and I'm just in this."

[15:35]" will hopefully get a chance to grow out of that morning long also -- I'm also thinking. And we're going to have more -- today coming up right after."

[15:45]" Up next what's the pats Jets rivalry play out in our madness. The nine games. There's -- today coming right up."

[15:55]" The ring here on -- have tons there is this big. One you want is this this. Tell you like them apples. Available on the tundra truck it's changing you know."

[16:15]" Woods' game time for -- now and Cubs are Madden 9 games and here's the prediction percent."

[16:28]" This week the -- Ted's it was argue meadowlands the pace than New York Jets and big city Brett Favre whose 276. Career starts about oh. 276. More than they have that. But no worries here Matt Cassel looked poised in the first quarter what is happening Jabar Gaffney but the cats just couldn't get any points on the board. In the second quarter part decide to -- the -- he belongs in New York with a fifteen yard strike to -- Colts. -- the sidelines and -- me in jeans and TEI am we. Favre stays on Broadway maybe shortly when that it was Thomas put the lights out on his production. And on the very next play Brandon Meriweather comes in to close the curtain on this game during drives. I think Brandon may have broken right lower east. We would get the ball back with 48 seconds left in the half but -- seven -- check -- my swagger with this one yard run that was lead -- field goal to put the -- three. Leading into the -- Village at halftime speech must've been a good one because on the kickoff to start the second half. Rookie Shawn Crable let's Leon Washington note that he below his New York. For about ten minutes after this -- but he plea to the Giants. To a big hit get the second half started but a huge big -- hogs think this game into high gear and Hobbs at a lower forbidding. Hobbs -- put the ball back and else's hands but only for a second because he sees Wes Welker running down the theme for the open he. And that that someone give me some skills that I can taste the -- up. But five is not intimidated by the pats -- loyalty to any shows that by running the bases and play action who they have the whole. -- was -- doesn't fall -- it again and puts our running back and the third with the -- up by head. We all know -- lives for the fourth quarter comeback but Rodney Harrison lives to make quarterbacks miserable. Part -- that would lead to another Gostkowski field goal giving the pads and now thirteen to nothing lead. With 25 seconds left number four's determined to mount the comeback but once again Ellis Hobbs comes up big deflecting cars -- And securing the pats victory in the --"

[18:46]" That nine says it's shut out thirteen nothing Patriots deep -- stepped up do you agree."

[18:52]" I don't see it shut out idling its gonna be the score fest that we saw the meadowlands last year we won Patriot won 3870. Or whatever was I think the Jets are going to be able to score some points. And I think the Matt Cassel led Patriots will have their moments as well. It'll be a low scoring relatively low scoring game I don't see it shut up Portugal are quick wrap up of practice this week what was it like out there while the most important thing on Friday was that Benjamin Watson and -- were -- out there during the media portion of practice good sign for -- agents to got hurt. In a pre season game we had -- Watson since -- the season began so if they can get those two guys out there would certainly help the offense from watching."

[19:28]" Race ever heard from defensive coordinator dean east here is your Patriots at press pass."

[19:36]" Our job on the fences stop the other teams -- Is number one thing you know say Italy and in every camp and ever -- you -- is as important. One group couldn't control the outcome of this game and that's the fact that they don't score we either win or tie. So you know. We got bottom line in this thing so soreness that's all we've ever done that's all we've ever plan that does it matter whether they put up 58 that put exists. It's our job to keep them shut down and that -- Cordero closed -- involves working with strategy and zero that's humanly possible. I'd say the word that I used the most with the secondary this week has -- changed. You know just play your responsibility. To beat patient. About the time you think he's looking over there he's gonna sling one over here so you know he's our guests and then. What Phillips said that to me the word patience as a big virtue in the second in this week that this guy. He can make plays when things break down here they have people covered like Miami -- cover last week important thirteenth but it didn't happen to our. You know he throws it -- sold. You know eat it that's the biggest challenge with him has just released to be an alert. Being on top of your game every play this -- long play. He got a chance to get just."

[20:59]" Well that's going to do it for us here this week don't forget to check out Patriots this week airing on -- 38 Saturday night at 1030. And of course will be back on Monday with a recap of the jet game we'll see them right here actually it is the street."
