Brady hit Ochocinco perfectly in stride with several deeppasses, and Ochocinco made nice catches on both, which would have resulted intouchdowns had it been a game.

The first came on a flea flicker, as running back BenJarvusGreen-Ellis threw the handoff back to Brady, who then let it fly, deep down themiddle of the field. The play threw the defense off-guard, and a wide-open Ochocincomade the catch.

The other big play the two connected on came as Ochocincobeat cornerback Devin McCourty wide down the right sideline, making somewhat ofa diving catch in the end zone.

The two plays captured the highlight of the afternoon.

As for the attendance, Julian Edelman, Brandon Tate, Shane Vereen,James Sanders, Ras-I Dowling, and Josh Barrett were not practicing, but were onthe sidelines.

Albert Haynesworth, Mike Wright, Brandon Spikes, and TaylorPrice didnt practice either and were nowhere to be found on Sunday.
