Play from 1:37[1:37]" Anytime you can get out there and we're talking. That you feel like you're gonna do good positioning in the house or build on the things you've done well it's so close to admit that we've seen here's the."

Play from 1:49[1:49]" One deficient area certainly compared to last season is the production of Brady Moss back in -- one minutes after taking over for injured Tom Brady. Cassel looked up twice with Boston a one game to the field and then the game's first touchdown of the season Paul's been quiet on the capital -- much fraud ever since. But it business school funding -- as the pats offense will flourish if Cassel simply throws the ball up for months the quarterback isn't buying."

Play from 2:13[2:13]" None of the young quarterback if you go through injuries it makes a smart decisions because they're forcing a double double coverage in the bad habits and some bad plays happen and then as much as you'd like to get the ball on the -- much as possible -- smart with the football issue or just that as the guys in there. -- Brandon can make right decisions with the ball."

Play from 2:32[2:32]" A team captain must have been supportive of -- and -- the burden is not just on the quarterback to make the offense went we've seen. You know -- criticized last couple weeks. I think -- expecting -- so. You know you can deceptively they'll gather round and a -- quarterback so well. They'll -- disputed. No doubt that those little round it is we have to make it happen. The invincible in the world silvers. That maybe but all eyes will remain on -- as he controls the Patriots offense it's a critical California to first for the north ridge native. Will be performing closer to home he's even looking up in the standings and still learning on the job. After a bye week anxious for return to act."

Play from 3:18[3:18]" Always look forward to playing you know that's what we we've come in Hamburg so hard during the week and throughout the off seasons ago advancement is in place so. More more regular there's more experience -- the more comfortable okay."

Play from 3:34[3:34]" It would as well more Patriots coming -- right after."

Play from 3:37[3:37]" I don't know if we're going to get a certain things combine. Death."

Play from 3:41[3:41]" Patriots trip out west is strictly business more for Matt Cassel locker room right after that it's. There's more of Patriots today coming right up."

Play from 3:51[3:51]" Brokers to -- if you let -- Pat on the back. The 2008 motor trend truck of the year. The drug. Changing you know."

Also get Patriots related pictures he'd love to keep those two it's a great way to communicate with -- all of our dealers and are looking to get -- Figured today would like things similar large -- friends starting with Taylor's comments for posting his picture.

Welcome back to Patriots today right now it got more what Matt Cassel had to say in the locker room today -- Patriots locker room and."

Play from 5:03[5:03]" I believe myself I -- it's never really. The lack of confidence it's just get out there and perform with those guys -- on the strong believer and I wouldn't be in this position if the coaches and their -- and have confidence in his also figures in victories. The -- thought and number different isn't going to mostly I think it's just the only game speed yeah. And -- see different looks and continue to feel how the Pistons it and actually. And then from their building on -- and -- since the injury problems in different you know where you need to go along with the ball and I'll putt. You're from California how accurate and yeah. I'm looking forward to vote for us it's a business trip and zone I don't fingertip to really experience the California -- kids business government and selective about the -- that's just that's part of it. We hope so you know so hopefully we'll have the opportunity is probably never know going in the -- You never know from week to week how wanting -- active versus another team so we're going there. And within the game and that we haven't we'll. I would say if you lose chemistry if anybody goes from the street from me drawback in. Somebody go for it from the -- that's really what's. Before throwing -- all very impressive split and in the game when it comes down to visit to Missouri and these kind of progressed through Ellis. -- a -- fun things could take place from the strip. Fairly unusual. Team bonding. Everybody I don't know if we're going to get a circle thing -- That. You know we're just who're gonna help there organ players before also let's -- Lewis who are here to do and that's -- what do you feel -- chemistry on the way."

Play from 6:46[6:46]" Islands joining in the studio now I don't Matt Cassel kind of jokes about the team bonding thing at camp but they're going to spend a lot of time together for a solid week."

Play from 6:53[6:53]" training camp and then somebody might be spending more time and even do during training camp yeah after -- you know this is good it's a good getting to know you kinda weakened that they'll they'll certainly spent some time together. More so that when they're at home. You have to think that Tom Brady would have been looking forward to district in on the Bay Area near the Bay Area for awhile towards families from and they don't get out there to walk in -- only once in his starting career and they've been -- That area so it will be an important one for Matt Cassel and whether they. Bond or have chemistry all that. I mean you know who who knows about that optional did note that well and not. And -- with a couple of would practice look like today any good notes bad notes I just from a from a good standpoint having -- running backs out -- and seemingly healthy can only help capsules on. On the last game they played Miami aren't Maroney was out there Jordan had been on the injured or it was almost surprised that did like. It seems like there are all healthy good to go and not having those five guys in the first to admit that they brilliant passing mention he's going to be a big benefit him office."

Play from 7:53[7:53]" That's as familiar quarterback with the 49ers JT O'Sullivan former Patriot some what familiar -- do you have pictured players. Omar that while some did they clay but there's and even more well known the former Patriot that's on four yes Tully banta Cain who who was seventh round pick in --"

Play from 9:45[9:45]" The fourth best defense in the league. You may start to get its regular wideout back but I expect the struggles begins. For Hasselbeck like smart defenses. Your gut tell you that Detroit offensive players should stay on your bench since the life. I -- I see your gut should be considered when it comes Jon Kitna the Lions. The last few years against the players with the five -- he's not a single interception. I don't know what it is but it as a sleeper this Sunday."
