Wednesday AM continued...

FOXBORO -

Interesting plays: Asante Samuel picked off a short slant pass thrown by Matt Cassel and returned it about 10 yards for a score. Nice play by Samuel; sketchy read by Cassel. ... Recently acquired wide receiver Kelvin Kight ran with the 1's yesterday which underscores how shorthanded the club is at wide receiver at the moment. ... Former Titan and another new acquisition wide receiver Eddie Berlin was on the field running mostly with the 2s. ...Dan Koppen, just back from the PUP is not running with the 1's yet. ... The struggles for third-string quarterbacks Todd Mortensen and Cody Bramlett continue. They just aren't accurate enough to keep around, it seems, which may send the Pats looking very soon for QB assistance.

Some Belichick:
(On subs this Friday)
"We ask that on the sideline during the game: 'When will you change groups?' It just depends on how the game goes. It could be the middle of the first quarter, it could be the middle of the second, it could be at halftime. It depends on opportunities and what they do with them."

(On the news in today's Globe that Tedy Bruschi has a broken wrist and will be out for the preseason and why it was divulged when it was)

"I had new information. I was asked a question so I answered it. Truthfilly. As I did a week before (when the original injury occurred)."

Tom,

Mike Reiss has also talked about how poorly Bramlett and Mortensen have played and thinks it' a strong possibility that the Pats will opt to keep just two QBs. Who else is out there, Akili Smith? Vinny Testaverde? Ryan Leaf?
