[0:38]" Then Richard Seymour does a nice job two gap and."

[0:43]" Any -- prediction of the yeah outcomes here -- Welcome to Toyota's Patriots today. -- side this Toyota Tundra."

[0:58]" I everybody welcomed Toyota thinking. Today I'm -- act or wrapping up the week today by the Patriots wrap preparation for the Buffalo Bills coming out this weekend. Let's here some final thoughts from the team up it's. Coming off of a process that -- the Patriots are ready to roll against the bills and -- quite -- Jabar Gaffney. Even more anxious to put -- dropped potential touchdown pass behind --"

[1:25]" further -- we -- in the father taught him how to game was turned. This is good we've gone to Buffalo and from the government can't do anything about it tasted so. He can't live. Put -- behind -- and didn't have to do recuperated well not been made that same kids numerous times this week -- I guess mr. working. Along those episodes of over that never happens again. Your support us open locker room would be perfect -- come back to you don't worry about it -- Obviously our guys did definitely in took me to get on this it couldn't throw and regardless student. I mean he's good down about it and hear about kids in the -- room. Yeah me opportunities to attack and I mean we -- it -- and they Melissa -- don't live Laguna. Learned you're really and move on."

[2:21]" Right out Paul Perillo has everything you need to know about the Buffalo Bills and what to watch for on Sunday here is this five point."

[2:32]" put -- up with the Patriots offense because I think they played so well Sunday night in Indianapolis. Basically just want to see a lot of the same wanted to balance they showed against the Colts I think it's kind of things. Against Buffalo one -- here for the football I think the ball -- people -- Buffalo especially would have felt a lot of thought it was -- out. And executing the football just got to make sure you take care of it Matt Cassel. Stay on the same track it is going Patriots -- some success. I would all -- positive talk about the opportunity to -- one problem coming. Next week on Sunday night was they didn't get the ball downfield at all they took the one shot that would really hard to get that -- Jabar Gaffney and unfortunately he dropped but I think those plays. In spots to be there I think they have paid off especially if the reds off. You have to take some shots so he can make some plays with their resentment in the first point is how. I think at least Buffalo secondary a little bit vulnerable let's get the ball -- we lost downfield. I'm loaded Patriots defense -- undergo the same theory as point number one turnovers. -- conflict is a terrific running back but he hasn't had a very good year he's been sick a little bit lately. Really stop him. Jets last week I Patriots -- that plenty fast they showed in Indianapolis. Stopped him and makes it seem one dimensional but instead it was that -- we -- coming from. The Patriots it was -- you -- yeah. At Buffalo offensively likes the plate pretty similar to the way the Patriots have under Cassel let's run the football control the clock with a short passing game but they have one weapon much like. Bought the Evans is a big play guy averaged about twenty yards at the likes of the league but he hasn't put up the Patriots in the past. Patriots need to make sure that stays the same -- he's the got on to make the big play. The Patriots put everybody back last week against Indianapolis I expect to the same kind of thing is we've got to make sure you keep Lee Evans underneath. What does it get -- much better than -- get three games three way tie for first place in three division games and it's at the first one of -- very critical stretch for the Patriots. These kind of games is definitely tough I think if you go to number one point -- turnovers if you take those out that they actually have a route. Both teams do the job protecting the football I think it's. It was about why I think the Patriots. Have a little bit we'll look right now but we'll struggle have lost glasses. Within the division come here Foxboro it is tough spot it -- I expect it to come away with -- very hard fought 2317 victory."

[4:50]" Having about a Patriot guard in the studio with me right after the."

[4:54]" Coming up x.s and -- of the Colts game with a head coach Benjarvis cut that back breaks a tackle and picked up another five security."

[5:02]" There's more Patriots today coming right up."

[5:07]" Brokers to lose to -- but they. Pat on the back. The 2008 motor trend -- of the year. The drug changing you know."

[5:29]" Well I think. Embassy and now with Patriots guard Stephen Neal thanks to -- and they -- So good to get back in the swing at things for young."

[5:36]" I definitely not -- working out for awhile and then nots in the field and a."

[5:41]" Wasn't fun but it's -- Do you feel like your part of the team when you're out for so long you're not on."

[5:47]" What you do here and your meetings United in the watchers stuffed by they got their plane and the games it's."

[5:55]" They started you you are rotating filly eight at first two games coming back into that really helped."

[6:00]" I'd get adjusted again -- I think so you don't have to. Be out there for the entire time but you want to adjust that get your conditioning back in time backs I think that helps."

[6:12]" Lot has changed in the last tenure until last even guaranteeing this year. How is it -- Adjusting to new system new quarterback a running backs."

[6:21]" On it's pretty much the same in the Matt's doing a great job back there in the running backs I was on hard no matter who it is and just go out there trying to do your job and usually works out pretty good."

[6:31]" this season perfect time to come back end crucial stretch coming up division play. How are you guys match up against outlets are rebels."

[6:39]" they they've improved since last year they got some more fiscal guys inside it's going to be a challenge for us we have to get out there and slug it out compared to get. And won't go out there do our best and hopefully you know we'll talk about."

[6:53]" If you ran the fact that you didn't play high school and college football. Let's let elevate your adjustment -- now how it."

[7:00]" Okay you know I wrestled in college and that opportunity and then agent. He's my agent now he got me here to the Patriots. And I just to learn their sense and that Dante Scarnecchia can help me -- I don't think it kinda made the transition."

[7:14]" And how much Bertini developed in the NFL so far is night and day from wrestling are and you really been able to get -- routine now. It's well."

[7:24]" Like I guess I feel like this -- that now pretty good the first couple years in this. Kind of reform and still but I think I understand a lot more now and strategist. Consider myself football players -- us."

[7:37]" Start against the Colts. -- the entire game what do you expect for this this weekend coming up at home. You write for."

[7:45]" I hope so and you'll find out on Sunday. In what they're doing my job do whatever and a team whatever it's called upon from the coaching staff well."

[7:54]" Best coach Belichick said -- at a press conference that you redeem most condition for your position do you feel like -- in the best condition."

[8:02]" I don't know how to use them again as our side not to say. And the best for the worst but Africa -- their plays listening to him personally feel that your condition."

[8:13]" Coming offering at all that top. Yes I feel pretty good dorm I think coming to approach -- him right -- what could -- about -- breaking down Nicole."

[8:23]" Hi everybody Mike Lynch along with coach Bill Belichick time now for a plays of the week from the Colts game and look at the run game both on offense and defense was that with the Patriots on offense in the red zone. Well you know the they draw plays a big part of the running game and and -- was both teams. And Sunday night's game here's a draw play. Couple elements just -- that a little bit different though when Cassel gets the ball -- kind of pump fakes outside. Keep the attention of the secondary and make them react to the pass -- active. I'm Wes Welker chance from and there are at least get I had -- today. But have structures are are of the -- green and Annapolis there it. Ball ends up hidden inside of them didn't and it's -- a first down there greater great look here's millions that he didn't really see the big broadcasts. -- castle looking outside how that affects a day. -- hope and after he -- Sosa passed comes up and works up there on the bracket. Watson's up on the linebacker. And if Kevin's got a nice try and win their inside. Time is there -- time interception of the metropolis. -- it's a great compliment when you're thrown ball a lot especially from the shotgun to be able to us to get these ends up field and and find some space and here in the running game. And now of course Kevin nobody better than that than -- final hole and inside. I would take a look at the Patriots now with the is too tight end offensive. This is -- little bit more conventional run here where we have two tight ends in the game and it's -- lead play where it. I Heath Evans comes over here and picks up a linebacker to Mankins and and light side and you know get a defense sealed off back here to backside Benjarvis takes up. They try to middle. Breaks a tackle by bracket. Get them the safety. But the good looks in the end zone the other greatly blocked by Lee Evans a 44. Right bank insist that the point of -- and and he really does a nice job on Boston deceit he'd take him out. Block him out of here Evans comes and there on linebacker lights at the end zone on the end. So it got pretty good all right there on the backside on Neal. Open ends and the Knicks fans -- down and you're pretty good job to get all this sealed off so there's a hole right there for Benjarvis. One brackets -- over into it. Jarvis cut that back breaks a tackle mix up a lot of clock security down easily and very well executed play sports. Special them well for you and Jarvis -- a few rounds are as good -- balanced division and faced him his opportunity his comments made the most of the future has. -- of a difference now for the Patriots. Well here's the Colts trying to do the same thing there down before they're trying to run a draw play and then on Manning handed off to a guy there. You know it's a tough play when you're trying to run rush the passer to react to it and what happens on this play is Gary Guyton -- down and it's part of alliance on. And that forces died about the ball outside and then he sees Vrabel come off you go and ends up -- and a -- Minnesota Jarvis Green comes around. That's part of the pass rush and give these out there and it. It's on the play -- It's great technique Q what Vrabel -- right looks on discrete region this fight right here. This is Gary -- on the sponsor -- I think that yeah. You know takes a -- off of the read back here to the left side and Hester Nelson out there this is Jarvis come around. On the stock he was going to come around it to this -- out -- on the draw play he reads out of it. And I think variables in his first start to turn the ball inside their back in the the inside penetrator -- aside doubts Michael currently stands out of -- look for a month. Jarvis is there's just it felt was needed big third down conversions fourth. Right now we look at the Patriots defense style the Colts have the ball down inside the ten yard line again this is a little more conventional Ryan play where. Manny is going to hand the ball off here on his own place the offensive left. And Phillip starts outside with the daily just set the edge here on on the on Clark. And average if Seymour does a nice job of two gap and and I'm not in Johnson back so. You know there we are the point right there were pretty good shape on the backside it. I'm Ty Warren does a nice job here company behind. Padgett -- kind of people were committed -- on the on the front side block and I comes behind him so he gets in the backfield and has -- died down. Seymour and the hills country. They'll look at this from the end zone you really can -- the play up front in the right -- the played designs the stretch here on the zone blocking and and find it seemed somewhere inside. Todd Haley has since most often forget -- too wide. And then. Seymour Knox Johnson back and and again just I want them on the backside coming behind Padgett he flattens it out. And takes away cut back there so -- got to dot -- stands a nice job of two to happen here that that that a guard by Seymour. And that's really what we want him to do is is not that guard back and stay square at their -- back doesn't have a read. You know if that Seymour was on one side and the back would go on the others in this kind of really makes a cloudy for the back and then as he hesitates. And against the pursuit a chance to get Tillman and Richard makes nicely thrown off there. They can play. That's why things work. Having guys doing their jobs every single time to sandy -- not a -- coach thank you very much very interesting is always that's coach spell check on Michael mentioned those. Of the plays of the week."

[13:52]" Coming up next got our Madden 9 games and you want to miss it back."

[14:04]" For years the front brakes on many have -- were this big. You want to breaks this big. They know. Standard and the drug it's changing you know."

[14:25]" back -- and got some final thoughts this Friday from the team your debate today press that."

[14:33]" You know it's an area of the game that we say is -- sport every week in its third game but what Buffalo. They're very very explosive and that thing isn't and they make a lot of plays into all six days -- doesn't. And don't get offered itself. So Maureen Torrey -- kicking game our first station that I have for what they do you know weeks in -- last week to week basis. Some of them get a lot of but that is what importance they. Yeah it's quick cutters -- vision to see him audience that runs. With the -- that patience and robberies he waits for blocking scheme. On Foley doesn't you know Russians against the blockers chance and -- got real big offensive line -- the biggest gently so. You know it's not really case too often on them not -- Create a hole somewhere -- you know where's it going to be in when's it -- tumbles and went back and it isn't. I think overall the passing game -- We don't obviously don't -- production we have last year we want more production running game -- or are balanced offenses. It's in pretty good statistically. And so. I think you know however you look at that it's. It's going to be a lot more balanced this year than it was last -- other for the Russians versus averages and all of that better in the testing I was -- I think every team's got this. Where was. What it would happen to him how -- decent. I'm Steve Neal and start and actually. Never let it go -- I mean there's a story it's some guys come out there three times all Americans and their role this girl that. There's went down into those other guys don't play high school -- play college. Did barely played in division whatever. To -- their planet national football."

[16:29]" Right now it's time to watch the Patriots and bills battle play out here's our Madden 9 games."

[16:42]" The Patriots return home to raise -- to take on the bills and a battle for first place and here. Things got ugly early for Matt Cassel the Patriots -- just interception by Donte Whitner. Just looking for a walk out of the backfield on this one but it just didn't see that defender. So the bills take over Buffalo decided to give the rock to Marshawn Lynch but he stopped on third. Or so of the bills have to settle for three B of the -- In the second quarter Cassell finds Randy Moss speeding down the sideline for 45 yard hook up they get the paths -- red zone. Big castle pines -- across the middle for the touchdown to put the -- of the -- Jabar Gaffney hold on that is when this week to get the pats to lead heading on behalf of the seven. Moving consolation is there have been Paul comes up short in the third and goal attempt but the pats. -- managed to get to three more. But it newest office that Trent Edwards -- the be all right with the cavs made -- ten point lead. AB with a -- to make it seventeen to three. And Thomas politely gives the ball back Buffalo we can try to come back in the fourth quarter. Can come back they did Edwards five rookie tight end Derek -- in the end zone -- previously have. But on the final drive of the game coach Bob -- is -- hopes of a comeback as he's walked away a pass potentially Evans. -- down. Runner up the clock and put up another W on the board I think he's the bills at home seventeen attached."

[18:14]" That's all we have for this week 1 o'clock pick up on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills that everybody enjoyed that weekend and next week break your play."
