I think they have to stay unpredictable with Bukhead and White on the field at the same time. A lot of 20 personnel. Motion them all around and give Brady every opportunity to find his ideal matchup.I think it was an illusion to think any defense in this day in age could be GOAT. This one included. They've been exposed against top tier teams. That's worrysome. Specifically the Baltimore, Houston, Buffalo, and Miami game. And Cincinnati until the Bengals threw up on themselves.
Patriots teams in the past have always gotten better as the season went on. But this one hasn't. And motivation can only go so far. Maybe this roster, specifically the offense, isn't good enough. Yesterday was definitely shocking. As pessimistic as I am, I never gave one thought to the idea this team could lose to Miami at home. None. It was truly one of the most shocking NFL upsets in the last decade.
I know people will thrash me for being a debbie downer. But what evidence have we seen that they can magically turn this around? What offensive player are defenses game planning to defend on this team? Double JE 11. Play man. Defenses know that there isn't a deep threat receiver. They know that when Michel is in the game it's a hand off to him. Or, an attempted play action pass. He's no threat whatsoever in the passing game. I just want an x's and o's detail as to how this team would pull this off? That's a general question. Not directly meant for you.
If we start leaning on teams then by all means bring in Sony and Roberts, but for whatever minor downgrade Rex is from Sony as a pure runner I will gladly welcome his versatility. Brady's strengths are greatly enhanced when Rex and White are moving around the formation.
