Going into the Patriots' season, we knew that there were very
few household names at wide out. We knew that it would probably
be mid-season or week 3 at best before we saw Gronk on the
field. We knew Brady is one of the best and that he has high
expectations for all of the players including himself. Coach
Belichick does as well. We knew the defense has been injured or
under-producing in the last couple years but still makes plays
when they need to. But over the course of the first two games,
we've learned a lot. Some good and some bad. We've learned that
the Patriots rush attack is something that teams need to look at
now. Even with Shane Vereen out, there is still a plethora of
solid RBs (Ridley, Bolden, Blount, Washington) that can get the
job done. The backfield is set for a great rushing attack this
entire season. Let us not forget, when the Patriots won all of
those super bowls back in the 2000s, Brady wasn't throwing for
300 and 400 yards a game. They had a fairly balanced offense and
a solid defense. T
