Predict one bold stat for a Patriot player in 2012.

[PATSNUTme]

The sky will not fall during the entire 2012 season and post season.

 

[wrangler]

Cannon becomes a stud on the right side by Dec.
Doesn't allow any sacks.

 

[Salva135]

Hernandez gets 12 TDs, more than Gronk, who spends more time blocking this season, which makes him even more valuable to the team.

 

[MoneyFX]

Brandon Lloyd - All-Pro

 

[Patriot Missile]

Ridley 1200 yards, 10 TD's

This,,....,..........

 

[JoeSixPat]

Hernandez catches over 100 balls.

Gronk is the TD leader however.

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

The sky will not fall during the entire 2012 season and post season.

talk about bold

 

[ATippett56]

The sky will not fall during the entire 2012 season and post season.

Will that be the case in the official game threads, as well?

 

[ATippett56]

Marcus Cannon will start at least 8 games this season.

 

[Joey007]

Will that be the case in the official game threads, as well?

Ha! I dont think even a 2007-like season would keep that from happening.

 

[ThatllMoveTheChains!!!]

I was going to say Woodhead will break 1000 APY, but then I looked and realized he actually had 945 last season.

Dowling 6 INTS.

 

[rookBoston]

4 rookie starters by Week 7

Jermaine Cunningham, 10 sacks

 

[Joker]

heh...10 sacks??....must be nice living in a world where it's 12 o'clock noon all day...I think Jones will get more sacks and pressures than Cunningham, by a significant margin...

 

[Modest]

Chandler Jones- 9 Sacks. 3 forced fumbles.

Ras-I- Dowling- 5 INTS

Greg Salas- 4 TDs

 

[rookBoston]

The thread is called bold stats. 10 sacks from Jones doesn't seem bold to me. That seem pretty close to target. Couple production from Jones with 10 sacks from the other side, from a player we thought might not make the 53-man just a few months ago... that feels bold, and the kind of play that would transform this defense.

 

[Sicilian]

Tavon Wilson will have 3 interceptions... AND 3 sacks.

 

[ivanvamp]

More of a team stat than anything else: Patriots finish in the top 3 in the NFL in turnovers caused.

 

[stinebot]

Gronkowski = new single season TD reception record.

 

[JackBauer]

Vollmer plays all 16 games.

 

[Kabonka]

Ninkovich 0 tackles, 0 sacks, 0 passes defended for Patriots 2012
Woodhead 0 yards, 0 catches, 0 return yards for Patriots 2012

Cut both of them = major improvement on both sides of the ball.
