Hopefully he can do the same as he did when he went to the jets and turned a 4-12 team to a 10-6 team in his first season there.Its not just brady the patriots lost a lot of guys on defense as well and still came out 11-5 only 2 games short of the best record of the season. Unfortunately b/c of how things stacked up it did not allow them into the post season.
I have no bad feelings of them going 11-5, Im quite proud of them actually.
And you should be. It's very odd when an 11-5 team doesn't make the playoffs. Actually, it just seems "wrong" considering 9-7 teams make it in sometimes.
Hey, you have to root for my Giants to crush the Eagles on Sunday.
I say loosing Brady pretty much killed the Pats chance at a great year. their D was not that good last few years in the sense that when your offence ios that good and makes other teams go right to passing mode by being down so far so fast it makes it easy to sit back in pass coverage and wait for the ball. But when the O isn't putting up 40 a game you gotta play a more complete game.
With that said you still got Welker and Moss. If you have a half decent QB you should do well with those guys catching the ball. But the D let teams have extended drives and plent of TOP. The D has been aging there for a few years and shame on the Pats for not having some depth on that side of the ball
First i want to say I agree with you 100 percent on your post.. THEY need to do something about this defense it's getting really long in the tooth in some areas now.. ..
Line is fine but we need more young LB's and some corners
BTW I was thinking about this after my spygate rant the other day... why are we talking about the pats? The off season is the time to talk about eliminated teams.

I HATE the Cowboys. It's GREAT they missed the post season. They haven't won a playoff game since 1997. Better still? They may keep Wade Phillips as head coach again next year!![]()
