I will be realistic with my expectations.
It’s not like anyone expected the Pats would dominate this year anyway. But long term, we’ll be fine. Brady is the GOAT but he would have been worse this year than last...and even worse next year.He could always bring in the QB from Foxboro High like he threatened to do to TFB.. It might mess up the kid's NCAA eligibility but if there was ever a year that will show BB's coaching acumen, this is it....Replacing ( hate that word in this case) the GOAT at QB, and nearly half your defensive snaps......IF and that is a big word, they play the entire season, I think 8-8 is a success....Anything more is gravy...
There is the annual UDFA who makes the team and with no preseason games, it was going to be less likely this year. However with the opt outs, I think we'll see a few who shine in camp and make the team like Malcolm Butler and J C Jackson in years past.......Next man up ....
All this opt outs are like the anti-Brady effect. We always said Brady was a draw here and talked about the Brady effect. How it caused players to take a little less to play here, buy in a bit more, ect... I think right now we are seeing this team not only without the Brady effect but with a negative rebound to it. The fact that Brady has left has caused people to kind of check out in a way they wouldn't have if he wasn't here in the first place.
That is pretty much the same take that Curran had to apologize to Chung and Hightower for and then did another 3min segment on his podcast explaining to the audience why after thinking it through it was dumb to write it.
I don't really care about that. The fact is the Pats have more players opting out than any other team. So many more that there has to be some reason for it. This is what I believe the reason to be. Curran has things he won't say or will backtrack on to stay in the inner circle. I don't have that issue. I think it is likely there is a connection here. If not Brady than why? What do you think the reason is?

I see at least 6 wins after we sweep the fish, the airplane, and that soon to be extinct bison species.
When the Pats go 9-7, or better, this year, I expect the negative, doubting members of the Fellowship of the Miserable here to take their medicine like real men and women.
A simple "I was a world-class dumbass for doubting Bill" would suffice.
If they finish with a losing record I will post "I was a world-class dumbass for not recognizing that it was more Brady than Bill."
I ain't nervous. View attachment 28093
I don’t see Cajuste or Cunningham as even serviceable.
