The first full week of training camp is in the books with plenty to like from the New England Patriots on both sides of the ball.
Yes, the offense, too.
The first few days were limited to red zone work and were basically an extension of minicamp and organized team activities, or OTAs. The Patriots really opened things up, however, during their first padded practice on Monday.
Things got competitive quickly with the practices becoming much more physical. Granted, the defense is still the strength of the Patriots but the offense isn’t backing down.
