[1:01]" Sunday night for the Patriots in with a one yard touchdown by earnest Graham and about. On the first drive of the game. And that Cassell had called an interception. Reversed after challenge but could about. Even the challenge what -- the Patriots -- the first half of the game did it with a bubble like Kevin ball hitting a field goal for the bucks. Followed by another one yard touchdown pass. -- about having. Yeah only able to barely come up with 53 yard field goal for just second. The second half was not a very good start with Dave Connolly. Finish off the third quarter Kevin O'Connell came in the game immediately threw an interception intended for Chad Jackson picked off by -- Leading to another field goal for the -- sport now 27 to three. Finally in the fourth quarter that they -- able put more points on the board after O'Connell scramble for a first down on fourth and one then hit PJ Jones versus seventy yarder -- after the Patriots had the night. Voice came on one yard touchdown by heat and it -- But it wasn't enough -- and they've got beat the Patriots. Haven't since. That's are now -- and two in the pre season. One side was once again a good performance I would you linebacker -- it's even without heat continued perfection in everything."

[2:34]" All the little things but those things out of the big thing and -- certainly we -- better job and you know in a good team this week against Philadelphia. And hopefully we can build more. It'll there weren't enough."

[2:52]" We'll hear more from good spell check in a bit also -- the players spoke up after the game of the reaction to the law they are right out your locker --"

[3:05]" Yeah got a lot of work to do it just became the fourth. He -- once -- over. Hopefully it'll -- the things that you can feel. I'll probably continue to work. And who's your first releases. I answered a lot of work to do we need to -- good -- this week could put up with him."

[3:28]" I think like anybody get the first of those that's. You know kind of into the groove. Hold it against Lopez again and I don't care if you continue. Rookie you know everybody is fantastic -- A good -- just you know. Just playing the game but we definitely all of us including me have to work on all of them who have thought that someone's. He knows -- that tackles. Into the ball or whatever and that's all the stuff that's. -- And the battle on drug an that it did it was a lot of -- you know honestly I didn't if you -- of them conditioning wise where there's a difference between fact is he and his. Canes beat incidents where -- is moving -- that's that's what it he might have been rather desperate."

[4:16]" Well not doubles partner and everything yeah. He's just either it's totally city you can make. Going to class hope the coaches doing little things like -- you know us a lot of confidence when -- You know it's Delaware and things that he's -- he's going to sleep. How consistent he's been so it's they have them -- just -- The religion. Yeah. From dumpster."

[4:46]" Yeah it is it's. On the next play and do whatever attendance."

[4:52]" The offense I was excited to get. Did tentative and some protection and yeah that -- here -- within it -- situations yeah. It is yeah -- and it will be catalyst that turned over. Since their little bit and it's -- new experience yeah."

[5:15]" Everybody has some people. Kudos you know supposedly -- we don't Ottawa. We don't we're about we have to do with the will be ours."

[5:29]" There's some sad news report from over the weekend former Patriots owner James fourth line -- on right."

[5:36]" I'm James -- lying under a tree in 1992. After only two years of ownership. It hurt him Robert Kraft."

[5:46]" finally -- more."

[5:53]" Considering hero a million have tons of theaters this big. The one you want to lose this this. Tell you like them apples available on the the truth is changing you know --"

[6:13]" Com learn a lot of different roles and you know I think. A lot of that's controlled by how you -- and play you know we're each feeling each other out I think they're excited that. Have been me accusing me and in. Number of different roles and I'm excited about that opportunity now I gotta go our."

[6:32]" The newest addition of the roster safety John -- and we'll hear more from in. Luckily it's free Patriots offense looked far from regular season performance and with the absence of Tom Brady a lot of questions come to mind right now Brian is going to take a closer look at its performance on."

[6:50]" The patron still have three weeks until their regular season opener but through two pre season games many more negatives than positives that includes Sunday night pre season game here Raymond James Stadium against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. "

[7:03]" Clock winding down there at Raymond James Stadium. Should the Patriots big concern. With their performance we -- pre season but should they be concerned. It was pretty obvious we ought to work to do faithful tonight -- really all three days of the games. In the wake of an unsightly Sunday night performing to tie the breakout everyone's favorite dog you bring it -- in life. It's only three seasons of backup quarterback Matt Cassel had a rough performance Sunday night -- Tom Brady for the second straight week that had turned to castle. Would you need to step -- for half. While playing games. Third quarter under his watch all the pet mustard was happy ending to."

[7:50]" Then Gordon do."

[7:54]" You know just the theme of the -- it was. Her mother were called the commanders are we'll get better as time."

[8:03]" Kevin O'Connell took over for cancel. And promptly tossed -- pick on his very first play from scrimmage. The Patriots draft."

[8:32]" He -- pre season but the whole. Was that any negative wait for the -- nets' plans marathon but in your scoring drive off you opening next. I -- the first half the -- was 234 yards of offense and seventeen point today. --"

[8:49]" Gone through. Tomorrow up against Philadelphia --"

[9:01]" But it was a positive for the -- The presence of John Lynch a Patriots for all the weekend the veteran team you know former -- saw action on third down plays it right. So whenever you play as -- penalties to get some exposure to assist them. They got a few place you know underway a long way ago there will be an -- round this week -- 510 slaves got daddy's little rusty but it felt good. He's only three seasons like. -- new -- certainly hope to shake off some of that roster and put up solid showing their next three season opportunity Friday night."

[9:40]" Joining me now on the field at Raymond James Stadium after the Patriots lost -- it good football weekly Paul. The game down two losses another overall underwhelming performance when you get your thoughts in general specifically the -- why I agree in this -- it it was a little bit more troubling men and last week against Baltimore they really didn't get much going early and was for a variety of reasons the running game looked good. Initially and then all of a sudden -- bottled up Maroney. -- castle you know little scattering early and made some nice -- it -- them -- Evans couple drops. It has been slow going offensively and I think that kind of stuff and that he -- hold us -- Let's excuse to -- Thanks John Lynch just signed 32 days ago. -- his own -- old home stadium in about a third down plays your thoughts on him getting -- yeah and I'm not sure that he wanted to play out like -- wanted to play as much he did but Brandon Meriweather was down early in the game unfortunately. Went gets out there Italy was up there in the first sub defense which really didn't happen for about 1012 plays that was the case defense every play. What John Lynch has been around a long time he knows how to play the game. He's currently not in midseason form what you know as you said Bryant with one practice under his belt and and coming out there playing but. That was nice to get him in the flow of the game getting into the Patriots system and let him get out there run around is that he's needs the experience in this system. To put -- sixteen years worth -- NFL experience to work right one player who impressed you a positive way. Well you know when you lose games this badly not a lot -- but I thought Shawn Crable again Brian. We haven't seen tons of him. At -- him on the practice field but he shows up against had a couple plays tonight. Albeit in the second half after the you know their quote unquote -- it was done but I thought he showed up and looked at stake associated that it back -- comes in. Late in the first half -- of 53 yard field. Have a negative stance when anyone in particular was assisted scheme or at I think it was Brian acting TI went to me was was. Depressing because it was the first guys it was it was we'll -- wanted to see more upfront it was Vrabel and and now mail when Bruschi it was really only hear what. Subbing in for a -- it was Thomas didn't play and that front seven. Nothing overtly bad. But seventeenth placed opening game -- back all the way down here -- fought with all of those second and third down opportunities to -- play. If his defense would come up with one yet it didn't."

[11:58]" Well it that we had a few players who came back to action I've -- been injured. That's a positive sign Tom Brady not out there we'll see him get back out there on Friday wrap up our coverage from Raymond James Stadium let it affect you Christina."

[12:11]" Brian and all right -- your head coach at this after the game along with former Bucs safety John into it."

[12:22]" Had a few moments on decent."

[12:27]" It brought in tackles. On top of them along -- You know again I think that there but there there's still a lot of work. -- Try to build on the positive. Moment it. -- game. It's always nice playing time. We come back if he treated us. Wonderfully we're here for -- You know eleven years and it it seems like a long time ago now it -- apartment and we start. It's -- here for example. Really weren't really minute melody that point lead you know as a part time now. You know we we had a lot of substitution at that point so rather try to -- with a lot of different people we. They'll just kind of different time outs you know surprise by Canada those guys object and luckily we got the ball -- excellence. That we weren't really in a -- tournament."

[13:30]" I don't think playbook sleep okay tonight I have -- last night for goodness we've got this week because I've been in that book trying to learn at all. You know there's different approaches this distance things there's been obviously very successful. And excited for the challenge this is really it's a challenge and plans sixty years to learn this. To -- this. Incredible so you you know to get got to continue to continue work."

[13:58]" That's going to do that for our game recap as the Patriots look ahead to a short week hosting the Eagles on Friday we'll have more tomorrow. Here it's like in this --"
