Phillip Dorsett’s Week 1 performance showed off his progress in New England’s offense The thing about being fast is Authentic Cordarrelle Patterson Jersey , when you’re fast and you happen to play wide receiver, and people figure out you’re fast, it’s tough to shake that “burner” label.And we all know what “burner” really means. A guy that does go routes and not much else. A one-trick pony, even if that trick is arguably the coolest play in football.Just look at Phillip Dorsett’s draft profile from NFL.com:And from Bleacher Report:We could go on. You get the idea. Phil’s not getting mistaken for Antonio Brown anytime soon.So on opening weekend with the Patriots receiving corps looking like they’re one player away from having to call Bill Murray to sub in, Dorsett did the only thing he could:Go forth and ball.Any Pats fan or fantasy player worth their Brady jersey already knows Dorsett’s stat line from Sunday’s W against the Texans - 7 catches on 7 targets, a tidy 9.4 yards per reception, and of course, his first trip to the end zone as a New England Patriot. That’s 101-level.It’s how Phil did it that should get anyone who just assumed he couldn’t harness the POWAH of his speed for anything but going deep more than a little excited.Hint: how many of those receptions were on go routes?Zero. Zilch. None of ‘em. A big old goose egg. Check this out:(Because I’m easily amused, please note that there are no “incomplete routes” shown. Cause Dorsett caught everything Brady threw him.)Is that a Patriots-esque set of catches Limited Jeremy Hill Jersey , or what! You’ve got a couple slants, that out-route for the touchdown, another couple out-routes on both sides of the formation, and that one that he caught in space behind the line of scrimmage split out wide by himself. No long bombs, just good old fashioned Tom Brady putting the ball where the defense ain’t and Dorsett doing his job.You guys like videos? I know I do! Roll it! One more for the road: check out former NFL QB Dan Orlovsky’s analysis on the little finesse moves and attention to detail went into Dorsett’s first TD in blue and silver. This is what working on your craft when nobody’s watching looks like, kids:If you’re stuck at work or in class or something, here’s what Dan is saying: Dorsett understands the route and the play well enough to know that Hogan is drawing one corner to the outside, and if he (Phil) breaks his up-and-out route to the outside too early, that corner that’s covering him can jump it and pick it every time Jordan Matthews Jersey , just like they do in Madden when you try to throw that out-route too early. Instead, Dorsett’s patient enough to sell it and let the play develop, THEN make his move to the outside with nothing but green grass to his left and, bingo bango, 6 points on the board.This is going to be the Phillip Dorsett the Patriots need to survive, and not just for the next 3 weeks, either.Week 2 Patriots vs Jaguars Wednesday injury report: Rex Burkhead misses practice with a concussion One of the most anticipated games of this NFL regular season will take place on the Sunday: the New England Patriots will visit the Jacksonville Jaguars in a rematch of last year’s AFC Championship Game. But while the Patriots are projected to be in better physical shape this time around, they still have some questions as a look at the team’s first practice report of the week shows:Did not participateTwo days after the Patriots placed Jeremy Hill on injured reserve with a torn ACL, another one of their running backs is now dealing with an injury: Rex Burkhead Jonathan Jones Jersey Salute to Service , who was spotted during the media session of practice, was held out today because of a concussion. This development together with Hill’s season being over puts even more stress on New England’s offensive backfield – especially because of this:Limited participationSony Michel, who was inactive last week against the Houston Texans, is still limited in practice after originally hurting his knee in early August. Getting the first-round rookie back as soon as possible has to be high on the Patriots’ list of priorities considering that the position group is currently composed of two healthy players in James White and recent addition Kenjon Barner.The Patriots originally had Marcus Cannon and Nate Ebner listed as full participants, but updated their injury report shortly afterwards. Still, both should still be expected to be good to go for Sunday’s game in Jacksonville.Full participation
