1. I still feel confident we win the division fairly easily, but given the teams struggles throughout the season I would not be surprised if they went one and done in the playoffs.
2. The team as a whole can only go up cause I think the Saints game was rock bottom for the Pats. Hopefully they take this game as a wake up call and start playing more consistent football on both sides of the ball.
3. I for one feel more relaxed with Vollmer in at LT than Light. The differnce I notice between the two is that they are both good at the initial point of attack. Where Vollmer has the edge is that he has the ability to win the point of attack and give the rusher little to no chance to get to Brady, where as Light does not hold up as long as Vollmer can.
4. I think Springs needs to be activated from here on out, I think hes the clear cut better corner than Wilhite, Id even rather see Butler starting over him at this point. Seems like week after week Wilhite either gets beat for a big play or a TD.
5. The O-line today gave up too much initial pressure fairly often when the Saints only rushed 3 players. I understand sooner or later somebody is going to break through but to give up almost instant pressure with 3 rushers VS 5 protectors is unacceptable.
6. The team needs to find a game changer on the edge of the front 7. Whether it is through the draft or yes somehow getting Peppers, something has to be done an upgrade is a necessity at this point.
7. Finally when its all said and done I still think the team will improve over the next 5 weeks or so. Hopefully they turn it on once they get in the playoffs where anything can happen.
