New England Patriots at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
NFL Preseason Week 2
Bucs Coverage: Bucsnation.com
Notes from the first quarter of the Patriots vs. Buccaneers preseason game:
- Jerod Mayo gets pressure from the outside backer spot on the first play, forcing Josh Freeman to throw the ball away. On the second play, Dane Fletcher knifed through the defensive line and stuffed LaGarrette Blount. The defense forced the three and out due to a pressure-hit from Kyle Love and excellent coverage by Jerod Mayo.
- The Patriots starting defense was Eric Moore, Kyle Love, Vince Wilfork, and Andre Carter along the defensive line. The linebackers were Gary Guyton and Jerod Mayo on the outside, with Dane Fletcher playing middle. The secondary included Devin McCourty, Leigh Bodden, Brandon Meriweather, and Pat Chung.
- On offense, the Patriots got things started quick with a Tom Brady to Wes Welker 8 yard completion. Two plays later, Danny Woodhead ripped off a terrific 29 yard run. He started to the right, broke a tackle, and reversed field to the left. Two plays after that, Brady found Aaron Hernandez on a 16 yard throw to the end zone, out of a 3-tight end formation. You couldn't really ask for a better start from the offense.
- When the Bucs took back over, Gerard warren and Myron Pryor burst through the line and stuffed Blount for a loss. The next down, Freeman dropped back and was met by Andre Carter off the right side. Freeman avoided the sack, but had to throw the ball away with Eric Moore coming at him. After a third and long stop, the Patriots forced their second three and out to start the game.
- After an unnecessary roughness called on Mason Foster, who hit a defenseless Chad Ochocinco, Tom Brady had back-to-back completions to Will Yeatman and Aaron Hernandez. On a third and ten, Brady kept the drive alive with a sideline throw to Aaron Hernandez. Nate Solder looked solid in protection, and the Brady-to-Hernandez connection really seems to be going. A couple of plays later in another three tight end set, the Patriots ran a play action, with Brady finding a wide open Chad Ochocinco in the back of the endzone. 14-0 Patriots.
- On the Bucs' next drive, Jerod Mayo used a delayed blitz to get a straight line at the quarterback. Freeman didn't go down initially, but then Eric Moore came in and helped finish him off for the first snap. After a strong bull rush from Andre Carter on third and 31, Josh Freeman and the Bucs offense once again had to punt. The Buccaneers had a total of three penalties on the drive.
- To close out the first quarter, the Patriots put up another touchdown. Tom Brady had a couple of completions, even Brian Hoyer came in from a couple of snaps. However, the drive was fueled by solid runs from BenJarvus Green-Ellis and Danny Woodhead. Green-Ellis had one particularly impressive 16 yard run, that was aided due to a nice seal block from Will Yeatman. Green-Ellis then capped off the drive with a one yard touchdown run.

mayo with the blitz.
I’ll take 11 players with heart on the field over 11 guys with just talent. Talent is fleeting, it goes away over time. Heart is what drives you to be better. To push yourself beyond what you think your capabilities are. To show us that when you strive, all things are possible.- SMP

Anyone think the jets could miss the playoffs?
You look at the depth of their roster, and its very weak past their starters.
Brady > Mallett > Hoyer > Sanchez

Lol were on a pats website. of course
but honestly i think they’ll make it as a wildcard

I agree.
you guys would make the wildcard, and still contend with the afc east imo.

Depth isn't an issue until you get injuries.
And the starters they do have are very, very good. Minus Sanchez.
Well that's the thing.
How can a team be that fortunate with injuries? Their paper thin at linebacker, lost their only quality backup at o-line (Rob Turner), have 2 rookies starting on the d-line. I just really don’t like their team.
Brady > Mallett > Hoyer > Sanchez
- beantownboy171
Its a very real possbility,
NE wins division. Either Baltimore or Pittsburgh gets the first wildcard spot. If the Texans are good they could very well get the last one, or maybe even the Colts if Houston wins the division.

it happens.
i still wouldnt put him in the bad column though. he was good, not great. His name was hardly mentioned in the game.

It's still only Preseason
Let’s not jump to conclusions yet. But they are looking very good these last two games
Agreed.
That said, the Jets offensive line should be a bit better. This Tampa line is probably hurting from the lockout.
Vlad disagrees.

I just hope the Pats remain under the radar, it sucks to have a target on your back a la Eagles, Jets

Preseason

Not even just talking about the pre-season.
I’m talking about his play at quarterback for his entire career. Phenomenal athlete. Mediocre as a quarterback. Combine them and he’s above average, but he’s not a special passer.

Especially since the Bucs are probably pretty pissed off.
Someone is much more likely to take a cheap shot when they’re losing by nearly 30.
got his revenge the next play.
he took the guy out.

Cannot afford to let Brady get hit. There can be NO errors. Solder needs RB or TE assistance until he is proven.
that was the second time he was beaten today i think.
other than that, he was great.

I have all the faith in Solder becoming a gem. BUT, at this early juncture, it is too risky to leave him by himself with Brady’s back on the line.
i guess, but even matt light gets beat a few times.
brady is going to get hit, its not unavoidable.

With Devin, Bodden, and Dowling (if healthy),
we just need one of Arrington/Butler to be decent, and I’ll feel good with the CB situation.

Would like to see a sack on this next play. That’s why Carter, Anderson, and others were brought in.
Guyton can wax him maybe!
