Wrapping mini camp fanatic is that there site. -- a few weeks before training camp. For the first time since Super Bowl 42 quarterback Tom Brady addressed the media I've several different topic I think kicked off --"

Play from 1:33[1:33]" His fast begins may can't they can't seem like another ordinary series practice is a veteran quarterback Tom Brady and his team full of thrills passes and spreads."

Play from 1:45[1:45]" That's not took that long and deep it is and complete. 12 could go to New York Giants have broken the Patriots an eighteen game winning streak."

Play from 1:58[1:58]" But it is QB's first start to another season after Super Bowl loss. Six you know preaching to us that it happened last year is so impressive learn from and Lofton and you know unlike field reflect too much one -- on the -- tournament from and build on it.

Play from 3:40[3:40]" joining me on the practice field now Tom Brady talked about new faces and new -- out here did you catch hitting infamous mini camp. What's new in the sense that this team is always good about turning the page from even a good year even a Super Bowl championship year I think by this point 56 months after the fact after the season ended -- turn the page there -- a lot of new faces they've lost some guys from last -- they brought in some guys not quite the same kind of turn over that a lot of new faces. Big name new faces last -- not quite the same I will say this though as far as Tom in the office is concerned. Just about all the skill position players that they had incorporated last year are back this time not a whole lot of turn over their I think that's going to be smooth sailing that's one thing that might be similar to last year the offense is in place they're good to go. These mini camps passing camps -- hardly compare able to training camp think -- Bernie even mention how. And -- how in shape you are for these camps. -- to hold from ballgame what do these news new guys in floor while they want one thing that is going to be similar training camp they were out here in about 95 degree weather on Saturday that was a four long practice. That's going to be similar to training camp so Maroney can kind of get used to that. But as far as and you guys you know new rookies this is a whole new ballgame from what these -- college whether they're here in New England or any other team and then the veterans I think by this point it seems like most -- have been around. For these passing camps I think -- ingrained in the playbook by now now they have about six weeks -- really get their mindset ready for the end of July I real quick give us the names at least an -- off the top of your head. New guy that. Rookie whenever we -- and it does that question I think victor hobson is really got to look at young veteran at a position inside linebacker maybe can play a little bit outside linebacker I think he's got to definitely look at hank Williams opened up a lot of eyes he's a safety play some linebacker those are two guys to -- veterans like."
