I see nothing wrong with all of us being very exuberant about this team. I, too, believe this offense can be "unstoppable" as long as the O line holds up. The offensive weapons that this team will be able to put on the field, on a consistent basis, primarily the receivers, tight ends, etc... can be almost unstoppable.
Defenses will have a hard time figuring who, and where, to set their coverage.
And, lets not say negative about our running game also...it too can be solid, and it's success will be based on the team demonstrating early success in the passing attack.
This team needs to come out of the gate agressively, maybe passing right from the getgo, under center, shotgun, etc... no huddle, play action, etc....
Use it to establish the strength of the offense and then control the flow of the game by putting up early numbers on the scoreboard,and not field goals.
One of my personal complaints in past couple seasons is that when they get into the red zone, and have first down, say inside the fifteen or ten yard line, they try to ram the ball first and end up with a desparation third down play.
I would rather see this team go play actiion on first down in the red zone.....
And, one last thing, on 2nd and 3rd downs with like 3-5 yards to go, stay the hell out of the shotgun because all they are doing is taking their optiions away by 50% and giving defenses control of the play.
Yes, this team can be almost unstoppable.... but only if they use it the right way, to their advantage.
Very, very excited about the potential of this team.
I just got off the phone with a friend , a Pats fan too, who has never been excited about a Pats team in pre season...UNTIL NOW.....
