Day to Day
Tough way to end the season, but the biggest weaknesses were exposed by the Denver Broncos in the AFCCG.
So where do the Patriots go from here? What needs to be done to get to Super Bowl LI?
First, Belichick need to find some offensive linemen. Primarily tackles. To make room, he needs to dump Marcus Cannon and Cameron Fleming. Cannon is no better than a lump of clay. He gave up three sacks today and looked like a pile of shit doing it. Cameron Fleming was no better watching Damarcus Ware take a straight shot at Brady. Vollmer cannot play left tackle. He's a good right tackle but just can't hold up against the speed rushers to his left side.
Second, the teams needs a big wide receiver. Edelman, Amendola and Martin got pummeled today and not having a big, fast downfield receiver severely hurt the Patriots.
Third, Get another good running back, a Curtis Martin type who has speed and some power. Not sure Lewis can come back and be the RB he was before he blew out his knee.
Fourth, time for Bob Kraft to start looking for his next head coach. BB is starting to get a bit old and the Patriots need to start looking to the future. In my opinion, Josh McDaniel is not the guy to take over the Patriots.
Brady has a couple of good years left if the OL can protect him. Take advantage of those few years and not get him killed.
