Patters

I bet BB knows the answer to this question.

I voted a talented one getting through a rough patch.

A very young one that is retooling and learning - don't look at average team age, look at it by unit. If you do that you wind up with BB's older units at LB, DB, RB, and QB (Thanks Vinnie!) and a lot of kids in the trenches and at WR, the future is bright baby.

I think a better choice would be... An above average team that has difficulties with certain defenses. ... Face it, the quality of the WRs has an affect on how defenses game plan verses the Pats. In the last 2 games, Pats WRs had 8 catches for 35 yards and 4 catches for 37 yards. The league is aware of the Pats WR deficiencies and has stacked the box to disable the run. Reality is that the Pats running game, even with Maroney in the lineup, has been held in check over the last half of the season.

Word of advice:

Save yourself the trouble of typing this and just put it in your sig...cuz there's a 95% chance it's going to be in your post anyways.

I think the face of the pats is a running team right now.When i mean running i am pointing to the compliment of RB we use in catching,screens and runs.Corey is still rocking even when you think he is going to loss a couple of yards he always gets back to the line .kevin is kevin and maroney is a hybrid of both.Heath plays FB,RB and TE.

We need 1 receiver open down on man on man coverage.That is all it is going to take to improve the offence. every play 1 receiver needs to open up and this offence is going to take off.

WR saperation is overrated as every WR opens up when the cut and fade the thing is this needs to be at the exact moment brady looks at them .It this timing that is of.

i voted a talented one getting past a hard time. I think whats missing from the pats is the fire, passion, character. If the pats have a bad first quarter they have a bad game, when in the past it always wasnt like that. The pats have a hard time bouncing back. Thats where the fire, passion, and character come in. How do you play, and act, when your down. Do you just rollover and die, or do you do something about it. Thats how you can determine who a team is. With this big win over the texans im hoping we get some of the old pats fire back, because without it we wont win. We have a talented team, its whats inside them whats missing.

I think it's way past the time for us to stop wondering what this team might be and just watch and see what it is. They have ten wins and have to win one more game to get into the playoffs going into Week 16. Let's see if they can get that win in Jacksonville, then get a week to rest some dog-tired players and roll the dice in January.

That's my pet peeve too, but I was just following along with the title of the thread...
