Default Most important ingredient in winning games this season

pick just one, the one you think will bring us the greatest likelihood of winning a game...

i believe it has to do with our strength, the offense...if they cannot be slowed down, we will win

our defense may luck into some 3rd down stops/turnovers but our offense will have to be excellent, and our offense runs through brady

if you give brady enough time, he will score, and he will win the game

thereby making sure our O-line plays to the level it has the last couple of weeks is my choice

after that everything else matters less

For me it's every player giving 100% effort for all 3600 seconds.

Our DB's seemed to cover well last night a few blown coverages gave some big passes up they will keep improving. The pass rush seemed ok even without carter. We showed we can play 4-3 and 3-4 and didnt look bad in either after the first quarter. If we are gonna play more 3-4 Dane Fletcher will be huge.

your poll would never make it as a double blind study ...there is only one real choice and it's keeping Brady on his feet in the pocket...the Pats do that, with THIS receiving corps and a healthy O line and all the D has to do is make stops inside the 20 with average frequency.

Other: Not quitting when it gets tough.

Went down early against the Eagles, never quit, blew them out.

Went down early against the Broncos, never quit, blew them out.

Been in some very close games, kept it competitive, even when beating ourselves with mistakes and/or just getting thoroughly whooped, never quit.

I don't think I've seen this team quit all year.

It's all about the OL and Brady.

Probably our best moves this offseason : resigned Light,extended Mankins,brought in Waters,drafted Solder(great) Cannon(future) and the back up centers are doing as good of a job as you can really expect imo.

It starts with developing a game plan and having a prepared team, then if necessary making the necessary changes during the game to put the Patriots in a position to win...

And protecting Brady so he can do his magic.
