And bullshit. The Pats do NOT have a roster as good as the Titans or Bills. That Pats roster is as bad as it’s been in a very long time. |
Uhhhh... Let's not get reeruned. The O-line is still solid, the defensive backfield still has Gilmore and McCourty, Hightower isn't dead yet and Winovich should take a step forward, the RB trio (Burkhead, Harris, Michel) still adds up to a decent backfield, they still have Edelman and Sanu and if Harry ever finally develops they're not horrible at WR (although it's easily the weak spot), they drafted TWO good rookie tight ends... They lost two big-name players, Van Noy and Jamie Collins, both of whom were "who?"s before resurging in New England. (And I'm not including Brady because you all can't have your cake and eat it too; you can't claim Brady was washed up and the 24th best QB and then in the same breath try to say he's an insurmountable loss.) I'm not saying their roster is Super Bowl caliber, but it's certainly not "as bad as it's been in a very long time". I repeat my assertion: without Cam they're probably around .500 and challenge for a weak division, but if Cam is healthy and starting they should probably win that East as the #3 or #4 overall seed.
