I didn't expect this one. Without him and Bruschi, as well as the departure of the coaching staff, the 2-time defending champs may have a tough season ahead of them.
Belichik and Brady are awesome, but not good enough to overcome this.
I heard the same arguments after Milloy left. Same with Ted Washington. With Ted Johnson, he did have a resurgance last year but the past 2 Super Bowl winning teams for the Pats before last year he was out most of the time due to injury, and I say that with all the respect due Johnson. He was one of my fsvorites. Don't count out the Pats just yet.
