Welcome back to Patriots today Brian I was on the west coast with the team and has more now on the peak performance in Oakland. Especially the inspired play by and that --"

[8:31]" The Patriots could not have scripted a better start here at Oakland Alameda county coliseum they throttled the Oakland Raiders he started out quick Matt Cassel has enormous day. On a tough week and the Patriots rallied around him for big win."

And with the assistance from a woeful Raiders offense helpful -- position. -- great start it was 27 less than two minutes into the second quarter -- Cassel already have thrown three touchdown passes. We're always had done on the day his yardage and completions totals were especially noteworthy but the performance and result work. Considering what else that was on his mind over the previous five you."

[10:24]" I'm here now with Paul Perillo Patriots football weekly were sort of undercover it's still a -- Oakland Alameda county coliseum but the Patriots promote the real quick start. And that's what was never really kept -- is what I call black hole you know. This is apparently officially in the -- But I'll tell you that's exactly what the doctor ordered you wanted to have a quick start. We do better team coming. Oakland has been competitive and the games they've been able to have some success early. So it was very important the Patriots didn't give -- success early when he one point in the first quarter right from the opening kickoff when they -- Justin Miller inside ten. It was all downhill from there outstanding effort -- field position especially early on -- huge. And Matt Cassel to -- a tough week unimaginably tough week for him but he put a -- a player of the week type of performance talk about what he did. And the team to rally around it and you know what I think the biggest compliment I get to Matt Cassel is I'm not even the least bit surprised I expected it. And have a good game that's the way he's played over the last 1012 weeks he's played focused football determined football and even despite what happened this week. And articulate who would be in this Stanley. You know I thought he -- made his teammates rallied around him. They talked them up problem for him and I'm not surprised that he put up -- touchdown performance actually I'm not. Because I expect him to do good things with the football in the running game was enormous they had great yards per carry they also broke up -- went to one place. And -- had rainy month scored twice -- LaMont Jordan. Finishing it off there was a long touchdown must've felt good -- those guys to get away and or reach him and I on the football side but Phil talked about how important those two guys were in preparing the team this week -- the scene -- in 2005 back in the opener. At Gillette Stadium so. -- talked about how Randy and the waffles were. You talking about tendencies and Julio he's with the Raiders personnel they do win and a lot of the players talk about this Oakland does have some individual talent. You know guys like McFadden and an -- And whatnot on both sides of the ball. It just kind of in disarray. -- and I thought that the best in the Patriots did today with the nature they took away any hope right off the -- and it was all downhill from that writer on the time this game. Kicked off we already knew the Jets have won and we knew that he had Dolphins had -- the Patriots really had to do some this is to keep pace on. -- scoreboard watching perceive I think knew what this thing you would need to get them -- and I thought the most impressive thing do you look what the Jets were very fortunate to win the game with a late fumble return for a touchdown at home against a struggling Buffalo team. Miami. -- don't look good early but then had to hold on at the end at home against the struggling San Francisco team but the Patriots on the second and of their west coast trip back to back out here colonel one. There were no struggle whatsoever I thought that was very impressive right now. On those three teams you have to -- Patriots play the best football the only question is we're out of time before they catch those teams right -- is the -- the Cardinals with a little bit of momentum and you know they -- they're still must -- state forgot what the other team -- think people get your five points later in the week that the Foxboro Christina."

You know we had a the first drugs were really short field where that was impressive result of -- villa and especially in defense. And you know assuming you're short do you have. A little more things as you can do as far as you know clippings didn't it. When they were -- those questions -- with the -- And time again run -- This time it was."

[14:24]" Bonds you know where those those guys have you played just and I know just personally and -- was every time he didn't before the game was did so well and I saw him doing -- momentum -- feel we need response you know obviously. One out fairly. I -- says now what I was going at that -- play an -- just it's."

[14:53]" Of course it doesn't matter who you gotta find a mean we've gotten back -- if if if is that enough watching the current. I say we fifty a lot of guys that -- you get on the blocks and you give them quick enough and victories a lot easier and it was in the secondary be it's the films on the back."

[15:12]" The NFL it's his turn into. From the previous seasons -- two game season. We got to understand that and -- we got a hold of Bahrain you know it doesn't matter that is not as if we don't win. No solo everybody hill serves today and does something and on to the next week it's."
