New England Patriots: Tom Brady in high gear at minicamp

In his first practice of the year Tom Brady was vocal and adding a new aspect to the New England Patriots offense.

The New England Patriots rookies and recent acquisitions finally found out what it was like to play with the greatest Quarterback of all time. Tuesday was the first time that Tom Brady practiced with the team and it was a lesson on how to run an offense.

Brady is known for being vocal at the line of scrimmage. Just listen every Sunday and you will hear Brady making reads and calling out the linebackers. Brady was practicing like it was the 4th quarter of a playoff game on Tuesday. He was screaming at the line and getting pumped up after every play.

Jordan Matthews was brought in by the Patriots in the offseason and is awed by Brady’s play and intensity.

"“He’s the greatest of all time, so obviously there’s a presence that comes with him. So everybody else knows, ‘Let’s be on our stuff, let’s make sure we’re coming out here and getting our job done because we know he’s going to get his done.’ At the same time, it’s a calmness, too.”"

Brady is looking phenomenal so far. He is already in sync with his receivers and is in mid-season form. There are no signs of rust and it appears that Brady hasn’t missed a step even though he missed the voluntary part of the Patriots offseason program.

Brady’s decision to not participate in OTA’s may even be a positive for Brady. He may be well rested headed into the season.

Even though Brady is in peak physical condition thanks to the TB12 method, he is about to turn 41. He can use all the rest that he can get
