Most are on this play on Mike this is against cover two defense we talk a lot about cover two in the two deep safeties in Arizona safeties are going to split here one of the weaknesses of -- of that defenses try to hit the ball in between the safeties here and there. That's done in this case by the slot receiver. Jabar Gaffney -- we call middle read in other words he comes down here when he sees the safety -- like this. And he"...

[0:01]" The test you block rich struggling more. You want the aluminum on the Litsch -- more. That seven year streak in the mid to. Available full size tundra truck that's changing at all."

[0:18]" Coming up mentally -- Patriots today. Racking of the week ended the regular season today it final thoughts on the bills. Brian currently on the we. I don't think it's going to be a blow -- the way it's -- the last couple weeks. It. Yes yes yes. And take a look back at the recent win over Arizona without -- There's nothing better than pretty screen pass. Welcome to Toyota's Patriots today. Brought to you find that Toyota Tundra. I everybody in welcomed Toyota featuring. Today I think yeah after."

[0:59]" All eyes are on the bills today as far as the Patriots are concerned because of -- talk. About the game to follow the Patriots bills come Sunday in what post game might be like if the Patriots were come away with a way. Logan Mankins is getting -- start off with this response rate up -- up."

[1:18]" will be happy we won the game and then we know we -- some stuff that happens. Hopefully when little TVs on their player who watched the games he was going and it didn't yeah."

[1:28]" They don't. Lose words he wants the world -- sausage -- the group we've created our own stores. Are driven. -- old soft Tim news remembering news at noon. This this -- using -- over him. -- I've ridden season has brought to reducing wear a suit and blue ones you can put weekends. Ago probably. What my you have to know what might not -- as -- And we've put ourselves in the situation and only -- improved to do was off -- do. You go for a -- from Buffalo and different winners."

[2:10]" Right now POW's Paul Perillo is in to break down the Buffalo Bills and his five points."

[2:21]" For the trip to Buffalo in December could -- One this is what the NFL is all about one game left. After winners have playoff hole. You have to win in Buffalo but it all starts up there. With Marshawn Lynch in the running game for Buffalo they like to be physical. Don't be surprised by his side -- pull these guys like to -- it in between the tackles lynch. Fred Jackson to Patriots number one priority those defensive lineman -- linebacker. Strap on the chin -- is going to be a very physical football game in cold weather. That's point number one this week stopped. -- heading over the Patriots offense could be as bad weather gamma there Buffalo so want to make sure you protect the football the Patriots offense has been unstoppable. The last couple weeks and Matt Cassel. It's been a guy right at the forefront. In the snow against Arizona -- 45 guys felt we know he can play in bad weather the wind I think to be a little bit different skills. Ralph Wilson Stadium is a tough place to play especially at this time here with the Patriots need to find a way to put points on the board expecting -- Cassel was done that. Very well. Patriots don't have to put forty to forty kind of -- the way at the last couple weeks but they do have to find a way to get over twenty. They would -- people who."

[3:44]" Point of the greatest kind of a tricky game here because it's not enough to just win the football game I think at this time of year when you have the last game. Luckily for the Patriots thinking they need help in threat 4 o'clock they had no reason to be looking up to explore what they can wait. 'til after they take care of their own business what they do that well. Focus focus -- this is important task at hand nobody does it sort of been Bill Belichick -- talked all week right now focuses on the Buffalo Bills. That's what they need to be worried about. You lose to Buffalo doesn't matter what happens in the meadowlands it doesn't matter what happens in Baltimore -- have to find a way to win this game the Patriots right now. Just forget about all the other help they need. Worry about the bills."

[4:28]" It's Patriots hope. But -- take a look at his stellar athletic build on not players and that's prided yourself. I don't have to worry about my focus -- worried about what's going on in the meadowlands and what's going on and -- him. Miami is only one. That -- but they win. Therein. I like Chad Pennington. Chances in the situation like I think he's really tested quarterback I think his intangibles what will the topped the Jets however they have the talent. I don't know which gets him we'll show up they'll I think its really pointless games and the Patriots have holes that it lands in the -- side in Baltimore. -- don't think there's much hope. I think the Ravens are just that much better than Jacksonville I think to test and we'll have to hope for hope won the Ravens game I think he's going to be in trouble. Patriots need to adjust to it yeah. --"

[5:16]" At his left field presence but it -- because obviously -- help me get Jets went I think it's gonna get back. I really do not just look at it through Rose colored Patriots collapsed I think the Jets are better team playing at home the Patriots. As we said -- point number three yes staples. Buffalo can be you know tough division game that you play at Ralph Wilson Stadium. Patriots to run the ball a little bit the way they have the last couple weeks and Cassel needs to continue that sharp blades and bad weather. -- of the bad weather there I think the Patriots offense right now is clicking on all cylinders they find a way to put up enough points I think the Patriots win this game. I don't somewhere in the 24 to seventeen category I don't think it's going to be a blow up the way it's -- the last couple weeks. But the Patriots get the win and they get the help."

[6:08]" Coming up we'll tell you white need to keep your holiday greens out right after that."

[6:14]" Brian -- is breaking down the -- There's more Patriots today coming right up."

[6:22]" Did you just three years from many have tons to burn through this -- trinity fluid. Cars less longer that you go through a whole lot less. Looks like you've got some I can do. Available full size tundra truck that's changing at all."

[6:44]" Welcome back Patriots today right now Brian lowest -- closer look at the Buffalo Bills offense led by running back Marshawn Lynch."

[6:53]" Patriots go to -- swing game of the season."

[6:58]" He had to writing a ten game winning streak over Buffalo who'll miss the postseason for the ninth straight year. After an impressive start to this season the bills went into freefall -- losing seven of eight at one point. Trent Edwards has epitomized the flow of the season starting out strong but hitting a rough patch that included an injury. He's back in the lineup now we'll Buffalo's offense relies heavily on running back Marshawn Lynch."

[7:18]" Marcel -- is. Better running backs in the league and I you know obviously it was great upside is hoping this production I'm right now through the guy that's only six -- We have gradually happens."

[7:31]" The Patriots certainly won't be treating Sunday's game as a gimme a noted this week that the bills haven't laid down at all this year last week that they did and mail it -- down by ten and this club back and won the game and against a team that has they had to win the need to win the game league in the playoffs this missiles loaded unsecured under the bus."

[7:50]" Locals still resilient team the team -- sorry an American and away. We anticipate their best effort yeah. Please give me or us."

[8:04]" Now that Brian has covered the Patriots opponent for the weekend in the studio would mean out of discuss our second favorite AFC east team of the weekend. --"

[8:12]" And you know for the occasion I dusted off the sold. Weird that sort of pseudo Patriots Jets jerseys for the Patriots logo but it's kind of greens in honor of the jet so -- occasion anyone not. But it's amazing how this is turning the Patriots have to root for the Jets take care of their business the root for the Jets it's like six years ago the last and Patriots did make the playoffs. Last week of the season played at 1 o'clock and one inning the Jets to lose to the Packers. I had a 4 o'clock game Jets and winning. Packing with Pennington against park so is this one. Just mind boggling that all works out but you know. The Jets have really in the will be freefall mode recently they have won games they need to win on the Dolphins coming off last season might have the best -- he's turned around ever. It's in the meadowlands mean that is the Jets a bit of an edge. So hard to figure out when the game awesome game but a lot of beyond that hatred that they're they're also the play and be into the playoffs for the Patriots the jags in the Ravens facing off at 415 right I couldn't find the Jersey that had Patriots yet three had while I'm going to take -- have a -- that we're -- big -- at -- we get through. Now acting more trees to predict because the Ravens have been high and there but in Jaguars. Not going anywhere in Baltimore I gotta think operate this on the yet. The Patriots win things don't go well meadowlands in the wild card if the Ravens lose. Another one we have to you know keep our eyes on and you know the Patriots decline was doing during these. -- real quick -- practice and there in the stadium again what was the update from the yet pleasant day for once they're so Richard Seymour Tedy Bruschi and Billy -- for your media access period. You know guy like Seymour practice or Europe limited for most of the week that -- doesn't bode well for playing. Advocates are -- run stuffing but that's that's what what right now for. It."

[10:02]" I think Franco pats and good Jessica and -- index Jets and jags in pats. I have a -- coming up right after it."

[10:13]" We'll be right back with more Patriots today."

[10:18]" Many you have to -- around the city miles per gallon. But hours puts up thirty more horsepower. Little big. Available full size tundra truck that's changing at all."

[10:38]" Welcome back to Patriots today right now we're going through the exit the nose of the Patriot to win over the Arizona Cardinals with a head coach here's a ballot -- break."

[10:47]" Everybody out Mike Lynch along with coach Bill Belichick time now for a plays of the week from the went over the Arizona Cardinals the -- coach. Most are on this play on Mike this is against cover two defense we talk a lot about cover two in the two deep safeties in Arizona safeties are going to split here one of the weaknesses of -- of that defenses try to hit the ball in between the safeties here and there. That's done in this case by the slot receiver. Jabar Gaffney -- we call middle read in other words he comes down here when he sees the safety -- like this. And he takes it on the milk. And that's -- hands -- in the fall here so. -- on gloves on the on the dusty fence here first off on the snap and succeed. Two safeties -- to go here. And the three underneath players trying to match up on our three receivers. And Jabar comes down here and and makes a nice move right in the middle of the field this is Gaffney coming from the third spot in size he's. On the field. Events and then. And Cassel leads imperfectly away from the backs on the backside safety model with a nickel back and away from the front -- this. The actual field conditions like this you can't see the yard markers. -- twelve yards and secured the first out. How does that mean how do you adjust -- opposite work well for the down and distance you look forward to the sideline marker and and see them as far as your spacing on the field. You look at the goal post and -- you take your relationship off the goal -- of the uprising trying to hash marks. Or you kind of estimates five yards. Outside the numbers have waited for five yards outside the goal post is halfway between the numbers look. And ten yards outside puts you on the numbers -- that's just kind of adjustment and -- courses use the -- about the -- but that's something that we talk to the players about make sure they got out there before the game and kind of took some visual landmarks on the is this. But very nicely executed play. Japanese sets up perfectly good -- put the ball right on the money and you know as usual welcome coming underneath. Of urgency -- comes through here you know draws a lot of attention from the underneath part of that coverage and opens up some space that I hear that deep down. Pass protection as is excellent. Both played and next take their -- to the outside and now Dan comes over and and then -- call cleans the pocket and takes the Cubs attack while there with. Steve -- are with the Mankins and this is -- in -- over here so yeah got -- a perfect -- a stuffed up and -- you -- exactly. Is the uncovered -- the -- it was it was possible cleaning the pocket yes exactly and you never know -- that's going to be like right now looks like it might end -- but when a tackle -- outside. That frees -- open he came inside and -- won't block him and Mankins -- got to clean -- so whatever guys -- the public's help when they're needed. We don't need much help on -- for a couple -- big days -- Gaffney had ninety yards and receptions I think very productive shirt and got us on some big."

[13:46]" Third down conversions and then the comebacks on the sideline there in the two minute drill work. Got -- some position for a score as the big screen to Kevin Faulk those screen pass here on. -- about fifteen yard line and what Kevin's going to do -- to come outside and fake like he's going to block the defensive end and it's looked out into the flat and any time you screen -- the fact that normal procedure is for your guards and senators -- the first and second mountain strange and the backside guard to come around and another peel back on the pursuits so that you you get -- a couple of guys kicked out he gets sealed -- the running -- somewhere in there and it worked out just about perfectly this time and this is -- trying to run off the corner -- he's going to come back and get a block and then I'll see Welker hostile here on the backside. I'm making nice boxes. But anyway here's the screens so there's Mankins and comes -- on a kick out block and -- Steve -- come around here with the -- also. That part of it is it is secure. Its. -- Gaffney coming in here and and gets the backside safety. And Wes Welker coming over here. And making a final block there on by the airline has come back because a great -- others from the -- and see everything coaches talking about one through free. -- so again Kevin starts outside and you can see the defensive end here -- is in his kind of concerned about haven't hit on Sunday and that takes the inside rush which is kind of where we want to go. And like the -- and there perfectly. Here's Mankins on the first kick out block here comes -- on the second pick up -- got blocked. And there are Steve Neal the third guy and -- backs so this fifth. Fifth spot. And if here ago that's nothing better than it pretty screen test."

[15:34]" To detail by the way during the game we're going to make the out of bounds lines in the goal line -- that yesterday's tells you tell nobody wanted to across the Blue Line right. Then of course and because that solutions then Carolina. This is -- going to different kind of -- so why --"

[15:52]" he's going to come back and could start downfield to come back and and get the ball in the just on the screens going to be with the tackle and the guard kind of kick out after. Play action fake flow after the top of the screen so here we go Watson goes across and motion. And Cassel takes the play fake over here -- that draws most of the defense over to the offensive right side. On now -- stops and throws back here animosity there comes a tackle or he's going to try to pick out the corner. On here comes guard Mankins he's going to try to kick out linebacker and plays really designed to go inside. Like this is on what happens on the play is. The Cardinals pursue it so fast that Randy can't really get back inside and the quarter jumps inside -- more self. Almost comes back and takes it down sideline and you know deep -- wanted to cardinal rules there's a number one a lot of of runner down the sidelines because you know none of these guys can catch and he always want to turn back inside possibly can use their pursuit but in this case I think it'll break -- in the leverage -- season takes advantage of it and."

[16:58]" And I think Belgium yeah this is your first play in the second half was -- something that was supervise a halftime with blow this one right away. Well we run so many plays out of the two tight formation and and we felt like that that Arizona was pursuing very hard on those plays and this was a good destruction play for so worked out pretty well it's kind of like run a reverse. Except were thrown out there and set him off the same idea. On play sets up another excellent I coach sector much fast thing as always. Happy new year thank you Mike all right Patriots coach Bill Belichick -- plays of the week."

[17:30]" we're sick when the head coach right now on what he had to say on Friday to wrap -- the week here's bill ballot checking your teachers today press past."

[17:40]" They're weeks and importantly every Kansas State game. And we try to focus on that since the game or plan whoever that is what are we that is that's all true but. I think when you get to this point there's no. No reprieve here it's. Seattle's game. Against San Francisco early in San Jose it was -- those -- you Wake Forest. Last week that we practice forest. That happened this week and I don't know but I think those were three. Just three isn't it three good weeks reduced efforts it's not perfect -- Edwards that the that is. Impresses me his overall grasp and understand the game. All doubles. What adjustments. Coverage recognition for what I think he does this big he does a good job. It's it doesn't want the bidders done more of these Bennett there more. Probably number -- more consistently well that's because he's played more birdies -- I'm -- I don't think our offense does changes too much when he you're going to present. It --"

[18:59]" That's all we have for today in the last week of the regular season for the Patriots will be back on Monday with a full recap. The Patriots bills game and hopefully a lot more on -- post season for the Patriots. We'll see then right here on Toyota's Patriots."
