Mike Reiss brings us up to date on the Patriots' plans for the week:

After arriving home Monday following their 35-7 victory over the Buccaneers in London, the team has Tuesday off. Players are scheduled to return to work Wednesday afternoon, with a practice scheduled for 2 p.m. That is likely to be a light clean-up-the-mistakes session, perhaps even a walk-through.

Thursday will be another work day, with a practice scheduled for 1 p.m. After that, players will have a four-day stretch to recharge as they won't practice Friday through Monday. Coaches are likely to sneak some time off in there as well.

Players return to work next Tuesday in preparation for the next game -- at home against the Dolphins Sunday, Nov. 8, at 1 p.m.
