Patriots.com reports during New England Patriots RB Corey Dillon's 4-yard touchdown run in the second quarter of their preseason game, Aug. 19, the Patriots utilized a rare four-tight end set, with TEs Daniel Graham, Benjamin Watson, David Thomas and Garrett Mills all on the field at the same time.

If the Pats did it there will be 5 teams that do it by the 3rd week of the regular season (Vikes maybe included).

seems to me the pats are always bringing back rare formations and plays to give them an edge...ans so far its been succsesful

I always liked the old statue of liberty play. ;D

I read they are bringing back the center sneak.

**Purple Floyd** · 08-21-2006, 05:54 PM

And it will probably work.

that is a crazy set. but i guess it got the job done. and you can do a lot from it now that i think about it. both left side TE could pull right for example.

I didn't even though that teams carry 4 Te's! Well I guess they do in the preseason. That is pretty funny though.

haha, i hate to say it but i like watching the patsies play, they always keep it interesting... and thats why they've been so sucessful lately.

plus now they have maroney so thats another reason to keep an eye on them

hopefully they dont break out anything "new" vs us
