Hear from Matt Light, Wes Welker and others on that subject and more, and we get Bill Belichick's Wednesday thoughts. Plus, Andre Tippett is honored at a local Legends Ball and we've got more facts and figures leading up to Patriots-Dolphins, all ahead on Patriots Today.

Play from 1:12[1:12]" From week two through week seven this season back Cassel got to -- the ground pretty well. He saw the meadowlands for a fourth time became a point -- with a candlestick park surface on five occasions. And against Denver he was up close and personal with his home field -- sixth time. When it comes the opposing pass rush perhaps no game during that early seasons stretch which more troubling for Cassel in the Patriots offense that when they hosted Miami. Cassel was sacked four times all by the same guy Joey Porter.

Play from 2:11[2:11]" He's a great player we definitely -- you know to Phnom Hammond and make sure you know we've we've trying contain him as much as possible. Porter is -- on porous pass rushing skills he's also well known for us talking skills prior to the team September -- and he said it shouldn't be that hard to defend asphalt. -- back up those words now this week Porter has already discussed his lack of respect for the Patriots. Citing past in the game and create situations that robbed in the wrong way the Patriots response we simply have to do a better job on game day. And to do that the Patriots need to start fast against Miami in September they fell behind seven nothing and twenty to seven. In their four road games so far the Patriots have trailed at the end of the first quarter three times. And freshest in their memory is last Thursday against the Jets which New York was up 24 to six. We definitely -- pastors make sure that -- him on all cylinders and really just making plays as we go along so. We skirmish -- we come around."

Obviously we faced your last week. To put. Not think living room we get through displays -- You know on the middle office just don't take what they give us that actually do it. Characteristic. I think you're."

Play from 4:03[4:03]" They -- this club more Patriots."

Play from 4:04[4:04]" I coming up right after that. Fifty numbers on this thing turned Patriot and -- back to Miami for the first time."

Play from 4:14[4:14]" There's more Patriots today coming right out. Did you just three years -- have tons to burn through this much Trinity fluid. Cars less longer that you go through a whole lot less. Looks like you've got some time to kill. Available full size tundra truck that's changing at all."

Play from 5:46[5:46]" Not January. It's. Divisional game and it's a big game so he's got a photographers. It's a big game you know divisional games like this Euro history and especially this time it is sort of business you know. We got to go out there mixture of their you know play their best ball and activists for camp. You gotta remember there. As more and every he would promotion. Effort you know wouldn't -- group form right now so. So. -- stated yes do you do. Believe me. You practice here you learn -- it and what they do you suddenly they do so you know all. Few answers some questions -- so this will be all the players before you and that's what you know he's supposed to do."

Play from 6:39[6:39]" Assuming a tough game force -- I was it is going to take donut in Norman and and things like that in itself one good. And I think we're -- out of all the answers I don't know I've been talking to -- in Oklahoma and Texas -- Roadside and everything so -- service game they do build a matchup against them influenced -- feels good goes without saying you know definitely you know take care mare and I'm just. I'm just a fan now just a problem now so."

Play from 7:14[7:14]" Bickered in the Dolphins are not only tie when it comes -- their record so far this season they are also eat and when it comes to force turnovers in ten games this year. Take a look at some news in numbers."

Play from 7:31[7:31]" Sammy Morris played three seasons for Miami. Totaling 900. One yards rushing. Touchdowns as a Dolphin -- And it will be more -- his first time back at Dolphin Stadium with the cat it was injured the week before last season's money. Majored in Dolphins at -- forced. Turnovers he's in Virginia right in the middle of my name is tied for fourth in the league in turnover differential. Having given the ball away only. The Patriots have allowed thirteen turnovers for -- plus. Talk about using half time wisely Patriots are outscored their opponents to 62 to 28 in the third quarter this season. They're most lopsided differential. Sixth time the Patriots defense has held the opposition scoreless in the in the -- best offensive output was fourteen points in Denver."

Play from 8:28[8:28]" Up next the latest from head coach bill about Jack right after that it's."

Play from 8:58[8:58]" Welcome back Patriots day before we go let's hear the latest from the head coach hears about checking your -- in the press past."

Play from 9:07[9:07]" Move along on these Dolphins accidentally imaginative. -- on -- for heated things. So we get a lot of things get -- four and didn't get Djokovic. Your -- in extra time. They did everything real well against us that aren't great against -- in the first so we gotta do look at that game. I don't think he's come out of the game and say well we've just. On this one thing -- thing was done a candidate that was that was everything. Work on everything that you single out one time not. He's done a good quarterback. I've never seen it any differently with the decision maker real smart guy. Very accurate with the ball hasn't turned it over is probably -- but you know let's turn over personally than them vote for the Dolphins. But there's there's adult and give the ball. On and other such a great arm accurate that. The most important thanks for quarterback directors and decision I don't think that'll change it's tackle well they're fast. They're aggressive and and knock a lot of people around sometimes and never as aggressive team like. Get a little over overcome nerves -- little over aggressive. Lose lose some leverage or lose plain and you know against good returner. That can be costly to us as we know well so. But I think overall they have very solid specialties in. There's a million things that went put together organization football teams. He's had tremendous success it's pretty much every place he's and it doesn't surprise me it doesn't. That there haven't success down there this year we know he's he's had every place spends. Enough. That's a -- anyway their coaches or players or anything else and I'm sure he's out of a big impact and big division game and all of them. Everybody is aware that everybody wants to know do their best work earned yet but I also noticed but. They pencil it would normally."

Play from 11:06[11:06]" It's all we have for today tomorrow have the latest from the Patriots along with some -- to football to it's. And don't forget to check out Brian -- lowdown show on Patriots dot com. From fortify we'll see tomorrow right on Toyota's Patriots."
