AFC North Title
#50

The perception that the Pats never let go of good players is false. Richard Seymour, Ty Law, Lawyer Milloy, Ben Watson, BJGE, Danny Woodhead, Shane Vereen, Deion Branch, Adam Vinatieri, Wes Welker, Chandler Jones, etc etc.

Also, I'm not seeing the high expectations. I predicted 700+ yards which I think is very reasonable in this offense.

"Utter bust"? Every Pats fan I've talked to said that they wouldn't have won the SB in 2014 without LaFell. He had key TD catches in the playoffs and in the SB that year. In addition, he had nearly 1k yards and 7 TDs in regular season. I'm not expecting that type of production in this offense, but I think 700 yards is a safe bet.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
