FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady said he feels like he is in a good place with a week to go in his four-game NFL suspension and added that one of the biggest areas of concern for him when he returns to the team Oct. 3 is getting his timing back.I dont think there is any benefit to watching the team play these games from a football standpoint, because it takes time to get the timing and the practice reps, Brady said during his weekly interview on Westwood One Radio when asked whether there has been any upside to serving the suspension stemming from Deflategate.Im trying to do the best I can to stay in shape and to keep the timing, and to really stay football ready. Im hoping our team has a great week of preparation and can get to 4-0, and then Ill have an opportunity to be back next Monday, and Im going to work as hard as I can to be ready to go for that week. Its a big week for me, and its a big week for our team. Every week is a big week in the NFL, but not having been out there for four weeks, there is a lot of makeup time Im going to need and the chance to be on the field with my teammates to see what kind of rhythm I can find in a short week of practice.Brady was asked by host Jim Gray how he can possibly make up the time away from the game.I dont think you can, he answered. I do admire some guys, like [Patriots receiver] Danny Amendola. He didnt practice at all in training camp and he goes out there and the first week of the year [and] has a great game. The second week of the year, he has two touchdown catches. Ive played with a lot of teammates who have been off for extended periods of time and it looks like theyre flipping the switch, but I think for me, thats not the way I really prepare. I like to take every rep in practice. I like to practice every day.Ive been able to be very healthy over the course of my career, and I think that has really helped me, and Im going to need to find that rhythm back. Its going to take some work and some time. Like I said before, thats some uncharted territory, too.Brady then turned the focus to Sundays home game against the Buffalo Bills, saying, Its always a tough opponent for our team. Hopefully we can get to 4-0; thats what I would love to see showing back up next Monday morning in the football building.Looking back, Brady called the teams 27-0 victory over the Houston Texans on Thursday inspiring to watch.It certainly doesnt surprise me the way the team has performed and what they did on Thursday night, because theyre always so well prepared and they take advantage of short weeks, he said on the program. I was so happy to see them come out and play as well as they did. They played well in every area of the game. It really took contributions from all three units.Its tough to play on those short weeks -- your body obviously feels different than having seven days to play between games, but to see the team come out and rally against a really good Houston team was inspiring to watch. It was a great way to get to 3-0.Brady also lauded coach Bill Belichick. Asked whether he thought Belichick is the best coach in the history of the NFL, he said, Yeah, I definitely think so.I think whatever hand hes been dealt, he finds a way to win, Brady said. Thats the mark of a great coach. Sitting in those meetings for the last 16 years and watching him prepare the team, theres no [other] coach Id ever want to play for. Hes just remarkable in every aspect. Its a privilege to play for him. I look forward to being back out there and getting yelled at by him.Brady cited Belichicks consistency as something that stands out in his approach.Its just whats remarkable, and its so much of what you dont see on these Sunday afternoons, Brady said.In addition, Brady confirmed he spent the weekend in Italy with his wife, Gisele Bundchen.We had a great time. It was a great chance to get away, he said. Ive never had an opportunity in September. Hopefully I dont have one for a very, very long time.

PITTSBURGH -- Plenty of the numbers from Pittsburghs breezy 99-80 victory over Gardner-Webb looked pretty.And none of them mattered to coach Kevin Stallings. Sure shooting 54 percent and never being challenged on Monday night was nice, especially three days after needing double-overtime to hold off Eastern Michigan in Stallings coaching debut with the Panthers. Yet Stallings is more concerned about whether his team is ready for a far sterner test on Thursday against SMU at Madison Square Garden in the 2K Classic.You look at our defensive numbers, they were indicative of a team that was not really wired into play, he said. Thats my fault. Thats my job.Cameron Johnson scored 18 points and made all four of his 3-point attempts for Pitt (2-0). Michael Young put up 18 points and seven rebounds in 15 minutes after being held out of the starting lineup for only the second time in his career due to a minor violation of team rules. Sheldon Jeter added 14 points and a game-high 13 rebounds.Still, the Panthers led the Runnin Bulldogs trade baskets early in the first half and for long stretches in the second. Stallings wonders if his players are getting a little too caught up in the free-flowing offense Stallings brought with him from Vanderbilt.Maybe Ive sent the wrong message about tempo and offense and things like that, Stallings said. Were not ready to beat anybody thats equivalent to us in terms of talent because we dont sustain any type of defensive intensity.At one point in the first half, Stallings pulled the entire starting five off the floor in frustration.I think he just wanted more effort and energy, Johnson said. He cited a lack of focus for that.Not that much was required over the final 30 minutes after a 10-0 burst that included a pair of 3-pointers by Johnsoon to give the Panthers a 30-14 lead that was never threatened.ddddddddddddRUNNIN WITH THE PANTHERSLaQuincy Rideau finished with a career-high 23 points for Gardner-Webb (0-2) while adding eight rebounds and six assists. David Efianayi scored 20 points and Liam OReilly chipped in 14. The Runnin Bulldogs spread the floor to provide Rideau with room to slice his 6-foot-1 frame through the lane.I felt there was little more space where maybe we could attack the paint off the dribble, Gardner-Webb coach Tim Craft said. The problem is we werent converting. Some of the finishes were a little wild.BIG MAN DEBUTPitt junior Rozelle Nix made his long-awaited debut after missing last season with a foot injury. The 6-foot-11, 300-pound Nix entered with just over 4 minutes left and finished with four rebounds and on emphatic block on Gardner-Webbs DJ Laster that sent Nixs teammates erupting off the bench.He got me once like that once, Jeter said. Im not ashamed to admit it. Im not afraid to admit it.BIG PICTUREGardner-Webb: After managing just 44 points in a lackluster loss to SMU in the opener last week, Gardner-Webb was happy to try and keep pace with Pitt in what Craft called a learning experience for a young team that will rely on Rideau and Efianayi -- both sophomores -- to carry some of the scoring load.Pitt: Despite the defensive issues, the Panthers seem to have quickly embraced what Stallings wants to do on the other end of the floor. The Panthers made 13 of 26 3-pointers and finished with 29 assists on 35 field goals.UP NEXTGardner-Webb: plays Eastern Michigan in Indianapolis on Friday.Pitt: faces SMU on Thursday at Madison Square Garden.
