What is going on with the Patriots this year?

AND NOW KENBRELL THOMPKINS IS WAIVED. WOW.
Well, I'll never forget the game winning TD against the Saints, Brady-Thompkins with 5 seconds left in the game.

Wow... I thought Thompkins had some potential. He should definitely be claimed by a WR-needy team.

Yeah I am rather upset with bad personnel decisions the last 2-3 years. We can't blame the high score on the defense either they were out there the whole game tired and beat. Tom has no time to through, cannot really rely on the run game as offensive line gives no good protection or push for them either. The WR core is horrible they dropped amendola then picked him back up? Desperation was there no one else? I thought Dobson and THOMPKINS would step up and be put it more but mendola and lafell are not good picks. With gronk I will admit he has had ok games the fact he cannot stay healthy and most of the time doesn't play makes me think he is at 100% right now he just is not as big of an impact when moss, welker are there and the run game can take off a bit of pressure. Its not brady's fault its bad decisions and a WR core that needs to pretty much throw them all out and start over.

I also believe tom really works better with a safety net in the back field. Someone like branch/Faulk use to play where they would stay back as a last effort if no one else was open. They were good and always seemed to be able to pick 1-3 yards out of nothing and he does not really have that. The offensive line it begins and ends there in the brady era this is the worse offensive line and WR we ever had.

I also don't think jets or bills are that bad both have good defense and will continue to play better I feel and geno if he doesn't turn the ball over. The jets could be much better. The bills have good defense I feel and the dolphins are sometimes hot and cold but I don't know if I would say weakest division.

Of all the WR-needy teams, the Raiders picked up Kenbrell Thompkins.

5 weeks can make a big difference. 43-21 Patriots over Broncos

Exactly. That's why I said "maybe it's too soon". I knew the Pats could overcome anything. Go Pats!
PS: It's more a loss for the Broncos then a win for the Patriots. Their special teams didn't worked well, what made the confidence from the coaching staff disapear. That's why a 4th and 6 in the second quarter in the 30-yard line. But the New England Football Patriots didn't played bad, au contraire, they pressured SO MUCH, scoring, with takeaways and forced Broncos' errors.

And the best answer is.... Tom Brady relieved after Patriots capture fourth Super Bowl win!

Now that Spring has sprung, it's time for...
