I've read through so many threads talking about problems and whats wrong with the Patriots.
I don't see it!
We've lost 3 games by a combined 4 points. All 3 games could of and should of been won. The 3 teams we lost to were all good football teams.
And then keep in mind we are basically starting 4 rookies now on defense,
RE - Jones
LB - Hightower
CB - Dennard
FS - Wilson
all of whom will continue to get better as the season goes.
Hernandez, and Gronk both have had injuries. The 2 biggest pieces to are offense.
Are O-Line is still developing with Wendell, and Soldier being young and inexperienced, and Mankins and Vollmer coming back from injuries.
Are RB's are going to continue to improve with Ridley in his 2nd year and Bolden a rookie.
BB and JM will figure out their play calling and decision making mistakes.
All this talk is crazy this team is primed to be running on all cylinders when it matters in January.
