"However even if they are vastly improved "on paper", there is still the matter of playing the games, and they are all too uncertain to be cavalier about assuming 12-14 wins. Besides, every team is going to improve this off season. Every team has reason for hope at this time of the year. 28 teams will all be picking ahead of us, and over 96% of this VERY talented draft are going wind up playing against us."
Oh, please. That's a load of crap. Seven NFL teams have new head coaches and all the change that goes with that. At least five others, including the esteemed Jets and Dolphins, almost fired their head coaches. A bucket load of teams are looking for a quarterback, and those that are, will be picking guys in the 1st Round that collectively we know aren't top-tier QBs. There's no Andrew Luck in this draft.
How many teams pulled off a Darrelle Revis addition this offseason? The Patriots get better just getting their guys back from injury in addition to Revis, Browner and Lafell joining the show.
The Pats get the NFC North in 2014. Big deal. The Bears got better by unloading a 34-year-old DE and by bringing in a 33-year-old DE? The Lions? Are they any better than 8-8? The Vikings? The only team worth a damn is the Packers. The Patriots are the bump in the road on their schedule. Those teams love the idea of playing the Bills (new coach) and the chaotic Jets and Dolphins.
Not everybody gets better. And they certainly aren't getting better the way the Pats are getting better. Enjoy it, ladies and gentlemen.
