Albert Breer: Patriots have advantage with early season NFL approach
On this morning’s Toucher & Hardy radio program, Albert Breer from The MMQB talked about how the New England Patriots might benefit from their early-season approach.
Breer pointed out that Gerard Mayo’s intense training camp could give the Patriots an edge in their first few games. He explained that while some teams use the start of the season to fine-tune their strategies after a lighter preseason, the Patriots’ rigorous camp might help them perform better right away.
Breer also noted that teams handle the start of the season differently. While the Patriots are using their tough preseason to potentially excel early, other teams are managing their games and rosters with a broader strategy in mind. He added that early success is crucial for new coaches like Gerard Mayo, who need to prove their program’s effectiveness and earn their players’ respect.
