It's very possible that the Pats will just steamroll through the adversity, but if there's any year where they'll finally start to tumble, this year looks like a good bet.
The Patriots live and die by the health of Gronk. Gronk is due for an injury riiiight?
Without Gronk, Brady wouldn't look nearly as good as he does lately. He doesn't have a ton of legit receivers outside of Edelman, and Edelman is having injury issues in camp so far. Never want to overlook the Patriots, but the whole "Brady is going to be angry and unbeatable" thing is fictional imo.
