We Are All Patriots

Okay, so let's all just agree, the Patriots opener in the pre-season was not what you'd call a nail biter.  Yeah, I know, it's just pre-season.  But damn, this group of Patriots was as close to unwatchable as any we've seen during the Belichick-Brady era.
So to help purge the images of that 2014 inaugural outing from your mindscapes, I'm happy to present a day at Pats' Training Camp with Clan Cook.  Trust me, it was far more exciting than the Redskins debacle.
First off, there was this guy, who, speaking candidly, I predict has a good chance of starting at QB for the Pats this season. Just not in the pre-season.
He looked pretty relaxed and in control out there.
Sigh.  Can we just get past these pre-season don't-count games and play some football?

Andrew broke into the locker room and borrowed a certain number 12's gear.  Somehow, Brady seems to fill it out a bit more impressively.  Must be the pads.  (You should have seen Andrew trying on Vince Wilfork's gear.  Just sad.)

Alright, Andrew, relax.  This Number 12 thing is going to your head.

Practice, lunch, Hall of Fame and Pro Shop done, it's time to get revved up for the season to come!
And then there's some, like Andrew, who just prepare for these things differently 
Who's ready for some football?
